[bunniefuu]

(soft music)

(lively orchestral music)

(Angelina and Alice giggle)

(audience claps)

(woman wails)

(soft piano music)

- [Alice] Come on, William,

just a bit further.

(children chatter)

- Higher.

- Come on,

you're nearly there.

- Come on, William,

you can do it.

(William whimpers)

- Come on, William.

- [William] It didn't look

quite this high from the ground.

- [Alice] Don't

look down, William.

Keep your eye on the tree.

- Gosh, I did it.

- See? I knew you could.

(William grunts)

- [Angelina] It's my turn now.

(William grunts)

- [William] Go on, Angelina.

- [Mouse] Go on, Angelina.

- [William] It's not far now.

- [Mouse] Don't look down.

- [William] Come

on, you can do it.

- [Mouse] Yes

- [Alice] Hello, Miss Lily.

- Now, be careful, darling.

- Don't worry, Miss Lily,

I'm a great climber.

(Angelina grunts)

- It's my turn to

push him, Priscilla.

- You just had a turn, Penelope.

- Did not.

- Did too.

- It's the new baby.

- Oh.

- Oh.

- Oh, look, a new baby.

- Oh, the baby.

- Oh, oh.

- Let me see.

(Angelina pants)

- Yes, look, everybody,

I made it to the very top.

I, I...

Alice, William?

Oh, where is everyone?

(mice chatter)

Oh, well, really.

- Aw.

- Aw.

- Excuse me.

(Angelina grunts)

Excuse me.

Oh, oh, will somebody

please let me in

so I can see?

- Aw.

- He's got the

sweetest little nose.

- And the longest

whiskers I've ever seen.

- And those toes.

Some day, he will be a

wonderful little dancer,

just like your sisters, no?

(baby coos)

(Miss Lily laughs)

- [Mouse] Aw, he's so cute.

- Well, I (scoffs)

(soft piano music)

(ballerinas grunt)

- And did you see his smile?

Wasn't that the sweetest

smile in the whole world?

- And that little hat,

wasn't it the cutest

hat you've ever seen?

- Actually, I've seen cuter.

- Wasn't that nice of them

to ask me over this

afternoon to help feed him?

- What?

You mean today?

But, but I thought we

were going to the park.

- Oh, I'm sorry, Angelina.

I was so excited, I

forgot all about it,

but we can go

tomorrow, can't we?

- Tomorrow?

I don't know what all

the fuss is about.

I mean, what's so

special about a new baby?

People have babies all the time.

(Penelope laughs)

- Angelina, you're just jealous.

- Jealous? Jealous?

What's there to

be jealous about?

As a matter of fact,

we're going to have

a new baby, too.

- Oh.

- Oh.

- Angelina.

- Angelina, why, that's, that's-

- Wonderful news, darling.

- Uh, yes, yes, but, um...

Oh, what have I done?

- Yes, Mrs. Thimble,

isn't it wonderful?

A surprise for the new baby?

Yes, darling, it's

perfect, perfect.

They will never suspect.

- Oh no.

(birds chirp)

- Oh, please, please,

please let me tell first.

- No, Alice.

I have something

important to tell you.

- But, Angelina, mine's

really, really important.

- Oh, all right,

Alice, what is it?

- Well, there's going to be

a big surprise tomorrow night

at the Chipping Cheddar Feast,

a cake, and balloons,

and presents,

and guess who it's

all for, Angelina.

- I already know.

- You do?

Well, isn't it just the most

wonderful idea, Angelina?

Angelina?

- Let's see, three country

rye, two honey wheat,

four large baguettes.

Hm, I wonder if

that will be enough.

- Oh, I'm sure that'll be

plenty. Mrs. Mouseling.

- You never know with the

Chipping Cheddar Feast.

- (laughs) Right you are,

Mrs. Mouseling, right you are.

- Uh, Mom, I need

to talk to you.

- Maybe I should've bought

a few loaves of corn bread.

Thank you.

Bye.

(grocer chuckles)

- Mom.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

What is it, dear?

- Well.

- Darlings, how

wonderful to see you.

You look so, oh, so radiant,

but what are you doing

carrying such a heavy bundle?

After all, it's not a good

idea in your condition.

(dramatic orchestral music)

- My condition?

Whatever could she mean?

(Angelina gasps)

- Perfect.

- You know, perhaps I

should get one more loaf.

- No, no, I mean, wait,

I mean, I'll get it.

(Angelina grunts)

(Maurice grunts)

(Maurice hums)

(Maurice grunts)

Dad.

- Oh, what?

Just a moment, Angelina,

I've almost got it.

Hammer, please.

- Hammer.

But, Dad, I've got

something to tell you.

- What did you say?

- I said I've got

something to tell you.

(Maurice grunts)

- One moment, darling.

Spanner.

- Spanner.

- Just as soon as I adjust

this one (grunts)

last (grunts) bolt.

There.

Now, what did you

want to tell me?

- Well, yesterday, Priscilla

and Penelope brought

their new baby brother

to ballet class, and

everyone was cooing,

and acting like the baby

was the cutest thing since,

since (grunts)

- Sliced cheese?

- Yes, and, suddenly,

I found myself saying-

(horn honks)

- Oh dear.

Ah.

(Angelina mutters)

- You see?

It just sort of slipped out.

I didn't mean to say it.

- Say what, dear?

(mouse chuckles)

- See you tonight.

(mouse chuckles)

- [Matilda] Angelina.

- Oh, how am I ever going

to get out of this mess?

- Angelina, will you take

this over to Mrs. Hodgepodge?

She's broken her

leg, poor thing,

and won't be able to go to

the Chipping Cheddar Feast.

- Broken her leg?

Oh.

(soft harp music)

(door closes)

(Angelina sings)

Oh.

(Angelina pants)

(Angelina groans)

- How's the ankle, darling?

Does it hurt very much?

- Only when I move it, Mom.

(Angelina whimpers)

See?

- I just don't understand

how you could've

taken such a tumble.

- I'm sorry I

spoiled your evening.

I know you and Dad wanted

to go to the feast.

- It doesn't matter, sweetheart.

It was an accident.

- Uh, um (clears throat) Mom.

- Yes, dear?

- Is there a difference

between a lie

and, say, um, an exaggeration?

- Well, I suppose

an exaggeration

is making something seem

bigger than it really is,

and a lie, well,

a lie is saying something

that just isn't true.

Why do you ask, Angelina?

- Oh, I was just wondering.

- Look who just

happened to be passing.

- Hello, Dr. Tuttle.

What a stroke of luck.

- Heh, yes indeed,

Mrs. Mouseling.

Now, let me have a look at

this sprained ankle, yes, yes.

- But, I, I, um.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

- Well, I couldn't

really feel any swelling,

and, well, we all know

how Angelina hates

to miss a good party.

- But.

- Well, at least

we're not too late.

- Aw, it's just a

delightful mouse as well.

- Come, my good friend,

I'll serve you a piece

of Mrs. Mouseling's

special cheddar cheese pie.

(mice chatter)

(Alice pants)

- Oh, Angelina,

are you all right?

- Oh, Alice, I've just

got to tell you something.

- (chuckles) Not now, Angelina,

you're just in time.

- But Alice, I, I.

- [Mice] Surprise.

(mice chatter)

- Oh no.

It's all my fault.

I didn't mean to tell a lie,

but, when I saw the new

baby, I was so jealous,

and the words just

popped right out,

and then one thing

led to another,

and I'm sorry for the cake

and all the presents,

but the truth is, my mom isn't

really going to have a baby.

- A baby?

- Darling, what are

you talking about?

- I think my little ballerina

has some explaining to do.

- [Mouse] I think so too.

- [Mouse] Oh dear.

(mice chatter)

- Welcome, little one.

- Oh, how lovely.

- Can I blow out the candles?

- No, I want to blow them out.

(Priscilla and Penelope blow)

(mice laugh and chatter)

(juice pours)

- I'm really sorry I lied.

= Well, I have to admit,

when you tell a

lie, it's a whopper.

- And just a bit embarrassing.

(Matilda laughs)

But the look on

your father's face.

(Matilda and Maurice laugh)

- Good night.

- It won't happen

again, I promise.

From now on, I'll just

stick to exaggerations.

- You better not.

(Angelina and Matilda laugh)

Don't worry, darling,

you'll have a new baby some day.

- Really?

(Matilda chuckles)

- Maybe.

(Maurice coughs)

- Can I have a baby sister?

We could name her, um, Polly,

(Matilda laughs)

and I'll teach her

everything I know about ballet,

and she'll be the

best little ballerina

in the whole, wide world,

(Maurice laughs)

and I'll take her everywhere,

to the park, and to the fair,

and we'll go on all

the rides, of course,

because she'll love

fast rides, just like.

(lively orchestral music)

(soft piano music)

- One, two, three,

two, two, Angelina, two, three,

two, two, three.

(Angelina grunts)

- Oh, oh.

(ballerinas grunt)

Those twins are too much.

- Don't worry, Angelina,

you'll be the best

Rose Fairy Princess

in all of Mouseland.

- Thanks.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

- Oh, your-

- Sh.

- [Miss Lilly] And again.

(soft piano music)

(Angelina grunts)

(Angelina whimpers)

- Oh, ow.

- Never mind, Angelina.

- After all, you can

always join the chorus

of dancing flowers.

(Priscilla chuckles)

- You dance so beautifully.

I wish that all my little

(speaks in Russian)

could be the star,

but as I always say, sometimes,

you are the princess,

and sometimes, you are the pea.

- Oh, Alice, I hope I

get to be the princess.

- Well, I don't care

what Miss Lilly says,

I'm never going to play a pea.

- Yes, the Rose Fairy

Princess shall be danced by-

- Oh, Miss Lilly, I

knew I'd get the part,

I just knew it.

- Penelope, darling, I'm sorry,

but this time, Angelina

will dance the part

of the Rose Fairy Princess.

- Me?

You mean I got the part?

- But Miss Lilly.

- And you, Penelope,

will make a beautiful

dancing flower.

(soft harp music)

- Oh, Alice, I got the part,

and I'm going to

practice every day,

times a day.

I'm going to be the best

Rose Fairy Princess ever.

- A single wire, darling,

what a perfect finale.

My beautiful Rose

Fairy Princess will fly

across the stage

on a single wire.

It's marvelous, don't

you think, Angelina?

- What?

A single wire?

(door opens)

- Oh, Penelope is going to

hate being part of the chorus.

She'll probably throw

her petals around,

and tell everybody what to do.

Maybe I should ask Miss Lilly

if I can play a rose bush.

The Rose Fairy Castle

would look very nice

with a rose bush in front of it,

don't you think, Angelina?

Angelina?

(door opens)

(soft orchestral music)

- Miss Lilly, I, um.

- Angelina, darling.

- Miss Lilly, um, I

was just wondering

if a single wire is

such a good idea.

I mean, the audience

might see a wire,

and that could be

a very big problem.

- A problem?

- Yes, it could be a problem,

but a ladder, yes,

a tall ladder,

decorated with vines

to look like a tower.

Now, that would be something.

- Oh, Angelina, you are

a funny little mouseling.

Just imagine the feeling

of soaring above the

stage like a bird.

You will be, you

will be magnificent.

- Oh.

(Angelina whimpers)

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(soft orchestral music)

- It just doesn't make sense.

Why, you're the bravest,

most daring mouse

I've ever known.

- But this is just

one little wire.

I mean, what if it breaks?

- But it won't break.

I'm sure that Miss-

- Hurry, Alice, rehearsal

is in three hours,

and we've got to find Cevo.

- [Alice] Cevo?

Who's Cevo?

- The Magnificent Cevo,

most daring trapeze artist

in the world, one week only.

Well, this must be the place.

Oh, come on.

(lively orchestral music)

Mr. Cevo, can you help

me fly on a single wire?

- A single wire?

(Cevo grunts)

Little mouseling, you've

come to the right place,

but first, we must prepare.

(lively orchestral music)

(springs squeak)

(springs squeak)

Higher, higher, that's right.

Flap your wings like a bird.

(Angelina grunts)

Magnificent.

That's right, point your toes,

throw your weight into it.

(Angelina grunts)

(Angelina whimpers)

Focus, keep your

eyes on the bars.

Yes, perfect.

(Alice claps)

(hook clatters)

(Angelina whimpers)

- I can't do it.

(Angelina whimpers)

(Angelina shouts)

(Angelina grunts)

- You know, it's not so

bad being a dancing flower.

(lively piano music)

(ballerinas grunt)

What are you going to do?

- I don't know.

- Beautiful, beautiful.

And now, the curtain closes,

and all the dancing flowers

take their final positions.

Angelina, are you ready?

Angelina?

(ballerinas mutter)

- I, um (whimpers)

- [Miss Lilly] Angelina,

are you all right?

(Angelina whimpers)

(suspenseful orchestral music)

- Ow.

- Oh, Angelina.

What's happened?

- She's fainted.

(Angelina whimpers)

- Where am I?

- I suspect our little Rose

Fairy Princess is afraid.

- Oh dear, I must've fainted.

- Well, I'm sure it's

nothing too serious.

- No, I think it

must be very serious.

So serious, in fact, that

she probably won't be able

to dance the part,

but I can, Miss Lilly,

I know every step.

- Thank you, Penelope,

but I am sure Angelina

will be all right.

Don't worry, my darling,

there will be no more

flying for today.

- But Miss Lilly.

- [Miss Lilly] No, I insist.

My little Rose Fairy

Princess needs her rest.

(car engine rumbles)

- See you later, my

dear, and good luck.

- It's for good luck.

I mean, not that

you'll need it, I mean.

- Oh, thank you, Alice.

It's a beautiful gift.

(string snaps)

(Alice gasps)

(suspenseful orchestral music)

- Oh dear.

- The show's about to start.

What am I going to do?

- I don't know.

Oh, I wish I could do something.

I mean, I'd even fly across

the stage for you, if I could,

but I'm just a dancing flower.

(Angelina gasps)

- Alice, that's it,

you're a genius.

- I am?

- Yes, yes, you are.

It's a perfect idea, Alice.

You'll fly across the

stage instead of me.

- Dancing flowers just

don't do things like that.

- Don't you see?

We'll switch costumes

right before the finale.

No one will ever know.

(door closes)

- Oh, bravo.

(audience claps and cheers)

Marvelous, oh, yay.

Oh, yay.

(audience cheers)

- Oh.

(Angelina hums)

(audience claps and cheers)

Now, Alice, now.

- I'm coming, Angelina.

Oh.

(Alice groans)

- Oh, bravo.

(audience claps and cheers)

Marvelous, oh, yay.

- Alice, Alice, where are you?

(Alice grunts)

- Oh, oh dear.

- Alice.

(dramatic orchestral music)

(curtains scrape)

Oh.

(audience claps)

- Magnificent.

- The show must go on,

and I won't let you

down, Miss Lilly.

After all, I am the

Rose Fairy Princess

(triumphant orchestral music)

(audience gasps)

- [Audience] Ah.

(Angelina giggles)

- Oh (grunts) oh.

- Oh, props.

(walls bang)

(dramatic orchestral music)

(William whimpers)

- Even though the

scenery collapsed,

you were a wonderful

dancing flower, Alice.

- Do you really think so?

- Yes, you were the

best I've ever seen.

You know, I was thinking,

I'm going to talk to Miss Lilly

about doing a ballet

about a circus girl.

- A circus girl?

- Yes, a dancing circus girl

who flies across the

stage on a single wire.

- [Alice] Angelina.

- And, of course, I'll

play the circus girl.

- Angelina.

- And it will be the

best ballet ever.

(lively orchestral music)

(soft piano music)

Flying across the stage

on a single wire

was scary, but fun.

We don't do that

in ballet class,

but we do practice

jumping and leaping.

Oh, Iman and Scarlet

are playing a game

I used to play when

I was very little.

Miss Lilly says it's good

for practicing

pushing off the floor,

and helps you to

jump really high.

Oh, now, they're

playing rockets.

That was one of

my favorite games.

When you jump, you have to

keep your legs very straight,

and your toes pointed.

Vanessa's teaching the

boys how to do jumps too.

Toby's practicing

his changement.

Now, Vanessa's showing Callum

how to position his feet

for a super sous.

Almost, Callum.

Haimish is doing

a different jump,

called an echappe saute.

(soft classical guitar music)

Paloma, and Tonya, and

Scarlet are practicing sautes.

That was good, Scarlet.

(lively piano music)

Caitlin's showing

our little stars

how to do jetes.

That scarf looks like

the one Miss Lilly uses

to mark the spot Alice

and I have to leap over

when we're practicing our jumps.

I can't wait to learn

how to do grand jetes,

and batterie steps.

I'd better start practicing

my jumps right now.

(soft orchestral waltz music)
