The Tale of The Dash In The Dark.

[mystical music playing]

[Rabbits] Whoa! Wow!
[all laugh]

[laughter continues]

And now, for the grand finale!

Tada!

[cries]

[all] Whoa!

[continues crying]

I don't understand.
We've tried everything.

I'm afraid Cotton-Tail
is just frightened of the dark.

There's nothing to be done
until she grows out of it.

Poor thing.

How is she ever going to sleep?

I really wish I could help her.

[cries]

Don't be so hard on yourself, Peter.

Getting babies to sleep isn't really
a big brothery thing.

It's more of a big sistery thing.

Just stick to...
raiding vegetable patches.

We'll take care of our little sister.

Isn't that right, little
Cottony Wottony?

[cries]

There must be something we can do?

A night light is a big help
when you're afraid of the dark.

Uh... at least that's what I've heard.

Have you ever seen a glow-worm?

They light up at night!

Don't they, Florence?

A jar full of glow-worms
would make a perfect night-light!

Lily, you're a genius!

[Lily chuckles]

Let's go and catch some glow-worms.

What? Now?

I-I didn't mean...

-Come on.
-But...

♪ Sleep little baby close your eyes ♪

[discordantly]
♪ Your sisters will sing you a lullaby! ♪

[cries]

I'm going to catch a million...

no, a gazillion glow-worms!

And I know just where to find them.

In the woods!

Yeah!

Wait... in the w-woods?

That's right!

At... night?

Of course! There's nothing more fun
than a night-time adventure!

No. Nothing! I love night-time.

It's so... dark!

Ooh, I can't wait
to catch my first glow-worm!

Let's hop to it!

-[eerie whistle]
-Whoa! [sighs]

[adventurous music playing]

-[Frog croaks]
-Ah! What was that?

-[whimpers]
-It's just a toad, Benjamin.

[gasps]

[whimpers]
What was that?

[chuckles]
It's only a cricket, Benjamin.

I knew that!

Just testing. Heh.

[gasps]
Wah! Wah! What was that?

-[both laugh]
-It's you, Benjamin.

[giggles]
You've got something stuck to your foot!

Are you alright?

Me? Yeah! Never better.

Why do you ask?

Want to hold my hand?

Yes, please.

[gasps]
Look!

Are those...

Glow-worms!

Oh! Wait for me!

Just look at them.

[Lily] They're wonderful!

Let's get a jar full for Cotton-Tail!

♪ Off you go! ♪

♪ No time to lose
You'd best be on your way ♪

♪ Proceed with care,
Think fast and stay aware ♪

♪ And you'll succeed
at what you're trying to do ♪

♪ The goal's in range
It's waiting there for you ♪

There. That's the last of them.

It's the perfect night-light!

You know, glow-worms really do help
you feel less afraid of the dark.

I mean...
if I were scared, they would.

Which I'm definitely not!
Why would you think I'm scared? Heh.

OK, then!
Let's take them home to Cotton-Tail.

Don't worry. I'll lead the way!

These woods don't scare me.

Eugh! What is that smell?

Eugh! It smells almost as bad as a--

-Grrrr!
-[gasps]

-Badger!
-[Lily] Oh, no!

[Benjamin] Waahh!

Who's stealing my dinner?

-Dinner?
-You eat glow-worms?

'Course I do!

[chuckles] They're the only
bugs he can find at night!

What?!

Oh! Sorry, you're right. Not funny.

These glow-worms
are for my little sister.

She's afraid of the dark
and she needs them!

Give them to him, Peter.

There are enough glow-worms
for everyone!

G-give 'em here!

You'll have to catch us first!

-[all] Ahh!
-[grunting]

-Whoa!
-Ow!

You rotten rabbits!

[dramatic music playing]

Wait!

It's one of my dad's hiding places!
In here, let's hop to it!

Aha! My dinner!

[gasps]

Oh, no! Brock's coming straight for us.
[whimpers]

How does he know where we are?

It's the light from the jar.
He can see it!

Right. Abandon log!

-Gotcha!
-[whimpers] Oh no!

Benjamin!

-[Peter grunts and groans]
-Let go!

He'll be able to track us through here!

Aha!

Never say 'never'.

It's the glow-worms!

Stop glowing!
Switch off or something.

I don't think they can help it,
Benjamin.

[Benjamin]
Let's get rid of it, then! Please!

Throw it away and let's go home.

Cotton-Tail needs this night-light.

And I'm not going to let her down!

We need a plan.

-We're going to have to be clever.
-I'm clever!

-And quick!
-I'm quick!

And brave!

I'm... quick.

And we'll need some of that
string from Lily's pocket.

[Peter] Yes!

Aha!

Now!

I'll take that!

Oh! Ugh, sneaky rabbits!

Ooh! Well, well.

Fancy that!

I suppose you'll do for a snack.

Come here! Oh, where you going?
Hold still!

[chuckles] Now, let's get that
jar home to Cotton-Tail.

[Peter] Oh, no!

Uh-oh.

I'll get it.

Let me!

It's too small.

[gasps]
Benjamin, you're the best digger.

Maybe you can dig your way in there?

Erm, ah...

Well, yes. Um, I'd love to.

But, well... um... I think there's
something I should tell you.

[both] You're afraid of the dark?

Yes! Very! How did you know?

Lucky guess.

It's OK, Benjamin.

I was afraid of the dark too,
when I was little.

What, you?
But you're not afraid of anything!

Everyone is afraid of something,
sometimes.

I always hum to myself
whenever I'm scared.

It makes me feel better, somehow.

[hums]

Don't worry, Benjamin.
If you don't want to go in there,

we'll just have to find
some more glow-worms.

If we can... And if
Tommy Brock doesn't come back.

Wait!

If you two stopped being scared,
then so can I.

I'm going in to get that jar!

-Alright!
-Hop to it!

You can get those glow-worms,
Benjamin.

You're a brave bunny!

Rabbits are brave, rabbits are brave.

Aah!

Phew!

Uh, guys...
I don't know about this!

[Peter] Come on, Benjamin.
You dig tunnels all the time!

But... this isn't one of my tunnels.

Wait! I...

I think I see it!

I've found it!

-Yay!
-Woo hoo!

Well done, Benjamin.

[splutters] Piece of cake!

[chuckles]
I was never really scared.

Um... Benjamin?

Whoa!
[screams]

Shoo!

Goodnight, Cotton-Tail.

What a very clever idea, Peter.

Amazing that you found so many
glow-worms right here in the burrow.

[all] Um...

Yes, well um, you see...

Hm? Maybe you two
should be getting back home.

-Yep!
-Alright! Bye!

[both] Bye bye, good night!

Would you like me to walk home with you,
Benjamin?

It is pretty dark out tonight.

No thanks. I'll be just fine.

I don't think I'll even need
to hum to myself.

-Goodnight, Benjamin.
-Bye!

-[Frog croaks]
-[gasps, whimpers]

[hums]

-[Frog croaks]
-Ah!
