Narrator: If you are looking
for an adventure,
you can find it anywhere your
imagination takes you.
Whether it's between the
covers of a book,
or in your own backyard.
But even the greatest
adventurers like Bert Raccoon,
sometimes need a little help
getting started.
Bert: The blazing tropical sun
b*at down upon the explorers
as they hacked their way through
the dank jungle undergrowth.
Ralph: Couldn't you at least
give us a hand here, Bert?
Bert: I'm just getting
to the good part, Ralph.
Schaeffer: [chuckles]
Never mind, Bert.
We're at the water, anyway.
Melissa: Now you and Cedric
be careful out there.
Bert: We didn't build this
boat to be careful.
We built it to explore
the mysterious
Beaver Bite Swamp.
Come on, Broo, it's time to
leave civilization behind.
Broo: [barks]
Cedric: We'll be
back for dinner!
Bert: Explorers don't come
back but dinner, Cedric!
Cedric: They do
if they're hungry.
Cedric/Bert: [laughing]
[reading]
They followed the river deeper
into the jungle depths.
A steaming air was shattered by
the cries of predators and prey.
[howling]
Grrrrrr!
[pretending prey sounds]
[cawing like crow]
Cedric: That's
pretty good, Bert!
Beneath the greasy green waters,
giant crocodiles waiting
for unwary victims!
Uaaah! Ah-haaa!
And then ahead,
the exhausted explorers
sited their goal,
the lost city of Bukhara!
Cedric: Bert, watch it.
We're going to...

Of course, I'm the only

Besides that, you can get

Here!

Cedric: Wow! Amazing!
Bert: You lived here long,
Herman?
Herman: All my life!
Like my pappy and my
grand-pappy before him.
Now, go get yourselves clean.
Cedric: That's delicious!
Herman: Thanks. That's
my special bark tea.
Take some back with you.
There's a tin right
there on that shelf.
Cedric: Which one, Herman?
They all look the same.
Herman: Third from the left.
Cedric: Wouldn't it be easier,
if you made labels for them?
Herman: Well uh, don't need
labels if you got a good memory.
Broo: [barking]
Bert: Huh?
Oh, you're right, Broo,
it is getting late.
We better get back before our
friends start to worry, Herman.
Herman: I'll see ya' safely out.
It's right easy to get yourself
turned around in the swamp.
Don't forget your book,
it's dry now.
Bert: You saved
our lives, Herman,
I'd like you to have it.
Uhm.. you haven't
read it, have you?
Herman: Uhm, can't
make out the title.
Must have misplaced my glasses.
Bert: It's called
'Jungle Adventure'.
I bet you'd like it.
Herman: Uh, I'm sure,
I would Bert, thank you.
[gentle splashing]
Bert: Heeeey, those
swamp shoes look like fun!
Herman: Yep, they are!
Cedric: Boy, this swamp sure is
an amazing place, Herman!
Herman: Yeah, lots of
history in the swamp.
Million years ago, it
looked just the same.
Of course, now those ancient
trees are under the swamp,
turning into oil.
Cedric: You mean there might be
oil under this swamp?
Herman: [laughs]
I don't see why not.
Well, there's the
edge of the swamp.
Bert: Thanks, Herman.
We'll come and visit you
sometime, if it's okay?
Herman: Whenever
you like. Bye now!
Bert/Cedric:
Bye! Thanks a lot!
Cedric: He was
really something, Pop.
He knows all the
plants and birds
and the history of the swamp.
He even told us about
the oil under the swamp.
Cyril: Oil?!
Cedric: Amazing, isn't it?
Well, see you at dinner pop.
Cyril: Oil! Huh!
I don't own
Beaver Bite Swamp...yet,
but I will!
Pigs!
Piiigs!!
The Pigs: Yes, Sir! Yes, Sir!
Cyril: Get down to the
Land Registry office.
Find out who does
own that swamp.
The Pigs: Yes, Sir!
Right away, Sir.
Cyril: Oil!!
Black Gold! Texas tea!!
[laughs]
Barrels and barrels
of beautiful crude.
I'm rich! I mean, I'm richer!
Ha ha! It's all mine,
just for the taking!
[laughs]
Bert: And he picked us up,
right out of the swamp.
And that's not all!
He's got these swamp shoes.
I'm gonna make some
for me and Cedric. And then..
Melissa: We'd like to
hear all about it, Bert,
after you have a bath.
Uh!
Bert: Hey, what's the matter?
Haven't you ever smelled
a jungle explorer before?
Clerk: Oh my, my, my, my, my!
This is mighty peculiar.
We don't seem to
have a deed on file.
No deed, no deed at all!
The Pig 1: Well,
what's that mean?
Clerk: Well, it means that
you can buy it, if you want.
Though why you'd want a swamp
is beyond me. [giggles]
The Pig 2: We'll take it!
Clerk: No, no, no, no, no!
Not so fast.
First of all, you'll
have to register a claim
and pay the $25 fee.
After a 48 hour
waiting period,
the swamp will be yours.
That'll be uh...
The Pigs: Oh, goodie goodie!
Clerk: But first,
fill out this in quadruplicate.
[thud]
Cyril: Ha-haaa! 25 bucks!
Best deal I ever made.
It'll be all mine on Tuesday!
[laughs]
The Pig: Well, Sir,
unless somebody turns up
with the original
deed before then...
Cyril: Don't bother
me with details!
In less than two days,
the swamp will be mine!
And no one, no one is
going to stop me!

Cyril Sneer will own this land

Herman: [angry yell]

The Pig: T-th-that's the law.
Herman: I'd suggest
you leave my swamp,
and don't come back,
if you know what's good for ya'.
Now, run along home
and tell your boss,
he can do his exploring
somewhere else!

Cyril: Well, what's the verdict?
The Pig 1: Well Sir,
we fractionated...
The Pig 2: Sedimentated...
analyzed,
crystallized...
The Pig 3: And it all comes
down to the same thing.
Cyril: Get on with it!
I haven't got all day!
The Pig 1: Well, it seems that
there's a lot of oil, Sir.
Cyril: I knew it!! The Sneer
nose knows where money is!
[laughs]
The Pig 2: But, Sir, we were
thinking, Sir, that, um..
[giggles] maybe we should
explore elsewhere? Um..
Cyril: What's that?
The Pig 2: Yes, Sir, elsewhere..
..with less mosquitoes.
I hate being bit.
Cyril: Bit? You are a bacon bit!
Get out there and get started!
The Pig 1: Well, there is
one small hitch, Sir.
The Pig 2: Yes Sir,
uh.. a hermit!
Uh, well, he's sort of asked us
not to come back again, Sir.
The Pig 3: I think
he meant it, Sir.
Cyril: Get back there and tell
that hermit he'd better be
out of my swamp by 5 o'clock
tomorrow or else!
And I don't wanna hear anymore
of your pig-brained excuses.
The Pig: But, Sir,
he's, he's scary!!
Cyril: Scary!?
What does that make me?
Mr Nice Guy?
The Pig: N-n-no, Sir!
Cyril: Then get going
before I turn you into
a set of matched luggage.
The Pigs: Yes, Sir, yes Sir!
Oink-oink!
Cyril: Mammoth, yeah,
what do you charge
for an oil rig?
[faint mumbling]
Cyril: That much, eh?
Yeah yeah, I'll
take a dozen, for now!
I'll need more later.
Yeah, yeah..
Is it a big oil strike?
Well, it's bigger
than a breadbox.

Cedric: Boy, these swamp shoes
take a little getting used to.
Uaah-ouh-ups!
Bert: You can't become a
great jungle explorer
like me, overnight.
Huh, it takes a
little practice, Cedric.
Like.. uaaah!

makes perfect, right Bert?

Herman: Thought I told you
not to bother coming back here.
Now that ya' scared off the
fish, what do you want?
The Pig: Ehm, uhm..
We are here to deliver
official legal papers.
The Pig 2: Read 'em and weep!
Herman: I-I don't have
time to waste
readin' every paper
that comes along.
What does it say?
The Pig: That this

true and level
claim to the swamp!
Herman: But this is my swamp!
Always has been!

Oh, Pop, how could you?
Bert: But you're going to fight
this, aren't you, Herman?
Herman: [sadly]
I don't see how it can.
It's all down there in black
and white, isn't it, Cedric?
Cedric: It sure looks that way.
Bert: But you gotta
fight it, Herman!!
Herman: I can't fight
marks on paper, Bert.
I can't fight what
I don't understand.
I'm just a stupid old man.
If those papers say
I have to leave my home,
then I guess I better go.

don't understand. We did..
Herman: That's right, Bert,
you don't understand,

I believe in this swamp.
Broo: [sad whining]
Ralph: I see. You're sure?
Well...no, thank you.

mistake, right Ralph?
Ralph: Wrong, Bert.
According to the clerk
at the Land Registry office,
everything's perfectly legal.
Bert: There must be
something we can do.
Ralph: Sorry, Bert, but
