[Peter] "The Tale of The Thing-a-ma-jig."

[Mr. Bouncer straining]

Nearly… there.

What is it, Dad?

Uh… time to find out, Benjamin!

-Whoa!
-Um…

[straining] Just… one… more… wind.

-[yelps]
-Whoa!

Hm, might need to tweak
the spring-jack coil retainer.

Mm, yes, I was thinking the same thing.

[Mr. Bouncer hums]

[grunting]

[both yelp]

So, um, what is it?

Don't you know?

No.

Um…

[sighs] Neither do I.

No idea whatsoever. [chuckles]

So, what do we call it?

Let's call it, uh, the… thing-a-ma-jig!

Wow! The thing-a-ma-jig!

[Peter] Now that is what I call
a blackberry bush.

Let me see.

Wow! We'd better get them
before someone else… does. [sighs]

-Yummy.
-Peter.

You know, it's a little rude to walk off
when someone's talking.

Peter?

Peter, are you listening?

[scoffs] Boys.

[Peter sniffs] Mm.

It's not every day we get to eat enormous,
super-scrummy-- [yelps]

-Blackberry and rabbit crumble.
-[exclaims]

What a marvelous idea.

-Peter, run!
-[Mr. Tod laughs menacingly]

If I were you, I'd just give up.

-[growls and grunts]
-[Peter] Ha!

No way! A good rabbit never gives up!

Come on, Lily!

[growls] Sooner or later,
you'll end up in my pot.

[panting] So, might as well save us all
a lot of bother and stop running!

[both laughing]

-[both grunting]
-[Peter] Whee!

[grunts] Oh, rabbits!

-[both] Whoo-hoo!
-Always disappearing down holes.

[both yelling]

[Benjamin] Hm.

-[both yelp]
-[Benjamin grunts]

-[Lily] Oops!
-Sorry, Benjamin.

[Benjamin] No worries.

There's nobody I'd rather get squashed by.

[both laugh]

What's that?

This? Oh, it's just
one of my dad's inventions.

It's called a thing-a-ma-jig.

What's a thing-a-ma-jig do?

That's the problem. I have no idea.

Neither does my dad, and he invented it!

Why don't we help you
find out what it's for?

Ooh! Me! Me!

I've got seven different ideas already.

Make that eight. No, nine!

Okay. But we have to be careful.

Let's hop to it!

♪ Play, rabbit, play ♪

♪ Let's hop to adventures on the way… ♪

-Whoa!
-Oops!

[all laughing]

[Benjamin] Hop! Hop! Hop! Hop! Hop!

-[Lily and Peter] Whoa!
-[all grunt and laugh]

[all] Whoo-hoo!

[all straining]

[all] Whoa!

[all laughing]

[Lily] Hm?

Um, nope.

♪ There's a whole wide world
Just waiting there for you ♪

[sighs] Maybe the thing-a-ma-jig
doesn't do anything.

Don't say that, Benjamin.

Your dad's inventions
always turn out to be good for something.

Lily's right. We just need to keep trying.

-[laughter in the distance]
-[Peter] Huh?

Rufus! Mindy!

-I said stack the hazelnuts, not eat them!
-[both sigh]

Felix, write them up.

[Felix chittering]

[both sighing]

[all squeaking]

[both straining]

[scoffs] Really!
Do I have to do everything myself?

[straining]

Oh!

Mm. Not bad.

-[Felix snarling]
-What?

All this hard work has made me hungry.

We haven't tried everything.

Come on!

Hey, Nutkin.

Oh! Hello, my rabbity friends.

This will help you get the hazelnuts
up to the squirrel camp.

We're managing perfectly well,
thank you, Peter.

-[whispering]
-[Nutkin] Hm.

However, my personal assistant
would like to see it demonstrated.

Felix, take notes.

What is it?

A thing-a-ma-jig.

Felix, write down "Thingy…"
[speaks gibberish]

-Got that?
-Mm-hm.

If we attach the thing-a-ma-jig
to the crate,

we can all drag it to the lift. Ready?

[laughs excitedly] Sounds good to me! Oh!

[gasps]

[softly] See what I'm working with here?

-[Peter] Let's go.
-[Nutkin laughs]

You see, Benjamin?

-Maybe this will be what it's for.
-Uh-huh.

-Mm.
-Uh…

Um, I can't really aim
with you hugging me.

[chuckles] Sorry.

-[Benjamin] Oops.
-[Nutkin] Oh, that's funny.

It's almost like
it's coming straight at me.

-[both scream]
-It's coming straight at me!

Run for your lives! [yelps]

It got me!

-[Lily laughs]
-[Benjamin sighs]

Hold on, Nutkin.

[screams and laughs]

Do it again.

[laughs] Incredible!

It's the best invention ever!

Where can I get one?

[sighs]

Keep it.

Benjamin, wait!

[sighs] Easy come, easy go.

Hey, Felix!

Why don't you
ever make cool inventions like that?

-[both giggling]
-[Felix] Hmph!

Why would I want to keep that thing?

[sighs]

Maybe my dad's
not such a good inventor after all.

[yelps]

You know what I do
when I'm feeling down in the dumps?

[whimpering] Um, you let
poor, innocent rabbits go?

[chuckles] Nice try.

No, I cook myself a delicious meal.

[Benjamin gulps]

[whimpering] Rabbits are brave,
rabbits are brave.

-[Lily] Benjamin?
-[both] Huh?

-[Peter] Benjamin!
-[Benjamin whimpers]

-[Lily] Benjamin!
-Where are you, Benjamin?

Uh, I guess I'm saved.

-[Mr. Tod laughs menacingly]
-[whimpers]

[Lily] Benjamin.

-[both yelp]
-[Mr. Tod] A-ha!

-Guess again, bunny. [laughs]
-[whimpering]

[Benjamin] Let me go!

Benjamin! Come on.

[Mr. Tod chuckles]

[straining] Let me go!

Why, of course.

As soon as I have my pot ready,
I'll be happy to drop you… in it!

-[chuckling]
-[whimpering]

[both panting]

We're too late!

[Peter grunts]

[straining]

-[Mr. Tod humming]
-[whimpering]

[Peter whispers] It's open. [gasps]

[whispers] We can't just rush in
or we'll get caught, too.

You're right.

If only we had some way
of grabbing Benjamin

without going in there.

[both] The thing-a-ma-jig!

[Mr. Tod humming]

Now for the fun part.

Okay.

I'll wind it up, you aim it at Benjamin.

Let's do it.

-[whimpering]
-[Mr. Tod humming]

[Benjamin yelps and whimpers]

Ah!

Ready.

[Benjamin] Ooh! What's that?

-Huh?
-[Benjamin screaming]

[stutters] How did you do that?

[growls]

-Phew! Wow!
-[Lily giggling]

[growls] A-ha!

Peter Rabbit!

How dare you steal my dinner
from under my nose?

[panting]

[sighs in exasperation]

Hm. [chuckles]

[Lily exhales]

Peter, you did it!

You found out
what the thing-a-ma-jig is for.

Yeah, and I have
the sore tail to prove it.

[laughing] Come on.

We need to get out of here
before Mr. Tod--

Catches up with you?

[all screaming]

[Mr. Tod grunts]

Ah! Not again!

Oh, no! Benjamin!

-Help!
-[chuckling]

Peter, what about if he uses…

[both] The thing-a-ma-jig!

Benjamin!

Use the thing-a-ma-jig!

-[Benjamin gasps]
-What's he rabbiting on about?

Uh, nothing.

-Whoo-hoo!
-[growls] What?

[Benjamin] Whee!

[all cheering]

[laughs menacingly]

-Oh, no!
-[Benjamin gasps]

Ooh! [laughs menacingly]

Whee!

[whimpering]

Gotcha!

We did it!

[all cheering and laughing]

[groans]

[Peter] Sorry, Mr. Tod.

It looks like you won't be eating rabbit
for supper after all.

[all laughing]

Oh, fiddlesticks.

[groans]

[Peter] Come on!

-[Mr. Bouncer] Oh!
-[all laughing]

Dad! We found out
what the thing-a-ma-jig does!

You did?

It's the best invention ever!

Really? Uh, what does it do?

That's just it! It doesn't do one thing…

-It does lots of things!
-[Mr. Bouncer] Oh.

It's a squirrel spinner…

A rabbit grabber…

And don't forget,
it's a ravine-swinger too!

It's amazing, Dad.
You're the best inventor ever.

-[Peter] Yay!
-[Benjamin] You're the best!

All right!

Without you, Benjamin,
I'd never have found out what it does.

Something tells me
you'll be a great inventor one day.

[gasps]

Did you hear that, Peter?

My Dad said
I'm going to be a great inventor!

-[Lily and Peter cheering]
-Whoa!

[yelps]

[grunts]

Oh! Whoa!

[grunts]

Oopsie.
