- It's a round hoopy thing.
- Come on.

What did you steal?

- I got a sugar cube.
- I got a biscuit crumb.

- I got a toenail.
- Oops.

- Dad?
- Yes?

On the next sneak,
can we break into the house with the...

What... What's that?

- Huh?
- Hm?

Oh, it's a...

Inside! Now!

It's a... It's...

Funny-looking. Can we eat it?

No! It's a...

Well, it's a robin, I think.

Hi, Robin.

Can we keep her?

Well, maybe.

After all, she's only one little...

...Robin.

- Wow...
- Ow! Ooh! Ow! Ooh!

Wait.

Wait for it.

Okay, let's go slowly...

- Yes! Yes, yes!
- Hey!

Ow...

- So, what are you getting tonight?
- I might get a pie crumb?

- Something moldy, I think.
- Well, I'm going to sneak a whole crust.

Well, I'm going to sneak
a whole sandwich.

- Oh, really?
- Yes.

- You can't sneak a whole sandwich.
- How do you sneak a sandwich?

- Um...
- Hm.

Like this.

Race you to the fence!

That's in my eye!
Don't do that.

- Pip, you're up front.
- Yes, Dad.

- Dink, don't drag your tail.
- Okay.

- Flynn, Flin, no showing off.
- All right.

And, Robin...

Got it, Dad!

I didn't say anything.

Robin!

Don't listen to them.

Well, the spoon, and the sandwich, and...

Pip, enough of that.

Come on. We've still got plenty to eat.

There's the bag of Earl Grey.

I'm sick of Earl Grey!

All right.
Well, come on now. Off to bed.

It's okay, Robin.
We'll figure this out together.

Yeah. I mean, next time, I'll just...

stay away from... spoons. Yeah.

All that mold!

S-s-sandwich. Mm...

"Oh! Hi, Robin. What's all this?"

"Crumbs? For the whole family?"

"Yeah. It was easy.
Just got them from a who-man house."

"Oh, wow, Robin!
You're the most amazing sneak ever!"

Huh? Hm.

Can't wait to see the look on Pip's face

when I come back
with a crumb the size of his head.

Hm.

No. No. No. No.

Oh, uh, excuse me.

- Do you know where the...
- No! No. No...

Oh. Okay. Thanks anyway.

No. No.

Now, that's a yes!

Cat!

Oh, dear.

Silly bird, fly!

What? Wait!

- Why aren't you flying?
- Oof!

I can't fly.

Why aren't you flying?

- Well, I've got a broken wing!
- Oh, no. How did that happen?

Magpie? Wait for me!

Phew!

- Let's get you safe indoors, hey?
- Thanks. Is the cat still...

Poor little thing.

Oh, awful!

Out there all by yourself...

Oh! Oh.

Oh. Uh...

- Are we safe in here?
- Ah. Yes. We're safe.

The thorns keep unwanted visitors out.

Usually.

Oh, good.

Is this your house?

It's very...

Oh. Why, thank you.
I suppose it is rather, um...

Perfect.

Well...

Oh.

A who-man house.

Bet they've got loads
of crumbs in there.

Oh. Them. Yes.

They've got loads of everything.

And all because of that
magic shiny wishing star, eh?

Yeah.

- The magic shiny...
- Mm.

Wait. Sorry, what?

The star.

You don't...

Right!

Okay. It must be here somewhere.

Once a year, the who-mans
take the spikiest tree in the woods,

cover it in tin-soil and boo-bells,

until their tree
is all twinkling and beautiful.

Just like mine.

Then, they put a shiny magic star on top,

make a wish, and in the morning,
they get anything they want.

Oh.

Like crumbs.

Crumbs?

Don't be absurd.

Well, what could be better than crumbs?

"What could be better than..."

Things!

Huh?

♪ Things won't fly away ♪

♪ Things will stick... ♪ Ow.

Oh, yes, on things you can depend ♪

I love it so, I'll never stop ♪

♪ This chair? Hedgehog hair ♪

♪ Pamperclips? I've got the pair ♪

♪ This is a limited edition ♪

♪ Piece of string ♪

♪ I was a bird who couldn't fly
Felt tiny while they flew up high ♪

Look, my point is,
wish for something far better than crumbs.

Oh. Right.

Better than crumbs?

Hm.

Like a... Like a whole sandwich!

Never mind.

Okay, then.

I'll do it.

- Do what?
- I'll go get the star.

Impossible! It's inside the who-man house.

Tsk.

Maybe I forgot to mention?
I was raised by mice.

Explains the ears.

And if there's one thing
us mice are good at,

it's sneaking.

Sorry, what?

Oh, like, into houses.

To get stuff. Like, stealing it.

Right.

Right!

Show me.

What are you doing?

- You're supposed to wait outside.
- I thought that we were...

Who-mans!

Okay.

We're going to have to be
the sneakiest mice...

What are you doing?
You'll wake the who-mans!

I'm... I'm being a sneaky mouse.

That's not sneaking.

The whole point of being a mouse
is you don't draw attention to yourself.

Careful.

Care... ful.

Ow!

Got it! Oh.

Who-mans!

Hah! Not bad for a couple
of flightless fools, eh?

Why is it you don't fly?

Oh. I just never learned.
I mean, mice don't fly!

Well, it's easy! You just flap!

No, thanks. I'll just...

All right!

Oh, you're a natural!

Ahh!

Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!

Whoa!

- Whoa!
- Woo-hoo!

Oh!

Oh, dear.

The star!

Per...

Hm.

- Hello.
- Ahh!

What's this?

An unexpected visitor.

Hm.

Why...

...it's the little bird who

sneaks about on the floor like a...

mouse?

And who are you trying to fool
with those... funny things?

- My family are mice, so...
- Mice? Oh.

Oh, and the ears are...

Oh.

Oh, I see.

So tragic. So sad.

Trying to fit in.

You know you'll never be a real mouse.

Oh, no, I...

You see,

you're a misfit.

You're an oddball.

You're a freak.

No, I'm not.

You really are a terrible mouse

with nowhere left to sneak.

Robin! And the star!

And the...

This is bad.

Ge-ge... Get back!

Oops.

Oh. That's made it worse.

Ahh!

Oh!

We did it! Everlasting happiness awaits!

Told you us mice are good at... sneaking.

Sneaking?

You know,
I think we make very bad mice.

Yes. Quite terrible.

- But who cares? We got the star!
- Terrible?

I'm not a terrible mouse.

Am I?

Ah!

This goes here.

Oh, oh, oh!

There we go.

Isn't this wonderful?

Suppose so.

Well, I hope you thought
of something better to wish for

than a soggy old sandwich.

You know, like a hubcap.
Or a shiny fork. Or a pencil sharpener.

Or... a thimble.

Or how about a safety pin...

Hmm. Yeah.

Oh!

Well, I... I wish I wasn't a bird.

I wish I was a mouse.

A real one.

Magpie?

Robin?

It...

It didn't work.

Did it?

No.

Come now.

It was always a bit of a long sh*t, eh?

Stars and wishes. Hmm.

A fool's dream...

...was what it was.

A mad...

...fool's...

...dream!

It... It... It works!

- Huh?
- Robin! The star!

It works!

Woo-hoo-hoo!

A real one.

What's that? For me?

A lovely, shiny...

Wonderful!

What the...

- Robin!
- Robin!

- Robin!
- Huh?

Uh... Dad?

Oh! We've been looking everywhere for you!

- Robin?
- Sorry, I...

I went to sneak us some crumbs, but,

it all went wrong.

Because, well,

I think I'm a

terrible mouse.

Robin...

I couldn't have said it better myself.

Oh! In! In!

A kitten!

It's all right.

Don't worry.
There's no way she could fit through the...

...door!

Oh, look.

It's the whole family.

Oh...

What are you doing?

Huh?

- Robin!
- What is she doing?

She's being a terrible mouse.

Oh! Ooh! Ugh!

terrible, terrible

Wait.

I don't... I don't need to sneak.

I'm a... I'm a bir...

Robin!

♪ Da-da-da-da ♪

Woo-hoo!

- Oof!
- Ooh. Ouch.

Oof!

- Robin!
- Dad!

Robin!

That was the most un-sneaky...

- And stupid...
- And brilliant...

Birdy-mousy thing we've ever seen!

Robin, you were marvelous.

Oh.

Thanks, Dad.

Robin, you're... you're not a mouse.

But of course,

you're a mouse.

Huh?

- Sorry, is that confusing?
- Yeah, what? She's a bird.

Exactly. She is a bird,
and that's wonderful.

And what I mean is,
we're the Mouse family.

All of us.

- Is the cat one of the family?
- No, Dink. The cat tried to eat us.

Because she loves us?

No. Because she's a predator.

So, you fly now?

Well, yeah. I guess so.

But we're all still hungry,
and you've ruined Magpie's house.

That's okay. They're only things.

Yeah, and I'm bad at sneaking.

If anything,
I just draw attention to myself.

Mm.
