BEASTGreat googly moogly!

♪

It’s a beautiful day!

I have a feeling something special

is going to happen today.

Oh, oh!

What do you think it’s going to be?

Maggie doesn’t know what it’s going to be, Beast.

She just has a feeling!

Is that true, Maggie?

Yes!

It’s just a feeling I have.

(Honking)

(Sputtering)

Look!

Maggie, maybe this is the something special

you’re expecting!

Hello there!

Hello.

May we help you?

My, my.

What a pretty little girl!

And so polite.

Thank you.

I’m Maggie.

This is Hamilton, and this is the Ferocious Beast.

I’m Lou-lou, and this is my sister, Rita.

You must be new in Nowhere Land.

As a matter of fact, we are.

And that brings me to the reason we’re here.

Would you be interested in buying some of our eggs?

They’re guaranteed fresh!

Hamilton!

You could use some eggs for your baking!

Yes, good idea!

(Clucking)

(Giggling)

Thank you so much, Hamilton.

(Giggling)

Oh, it was nothing.

All right now.

How many dozen eggs would you like?

Hmm.

Three, I guess.

I’ll bill you at the end of the month.

That will be fine.

Well...

It was so nice meeting you.

Come back soon!

Oh, yes, we will!

Come along, Rita.

I’m coming.

Rita, we really must be running along.

(Sighing)

Goodbye, all!

BOTHGoodbye!

Bye, chicken ladies!

(Creaking)

Uh-oh!

(Mumbling)

What are we going to do?

First, we’re going to get out of the truck.

Ladies, won’t you sit here in the shade?

I’ll have a look at your truck.

Thank you so much.

Are you comfortable, Ms. Rita and Ms. Lou-lou?

Oh, we’re just fine, my dear.

Do you think Hamilton might be able to fix our truck?

Oh, yes.

Hamilton is very good at fixing things.

But where did he go?

I’m right here.

(Glasses jingling)

I thought you might like a cool drink

while I tackle that old truck.

This is most neighbourly of you.

Think nothing of it!

Now, let me at that truck.

(Clanking)

Do you see anything, Hamilton?

(Squeaking)

Not yet!

You’ll find the problem.

Maggie, you said you had a feeling

something special was going to happen today.

Do you think it’s the chicken ladies?

I don’t know, Beast.

But today isn’t over yet.

(Rubber snapping)

I found the trouble!

The elastic band broke on the pedals.
[ … ]

I have a spare one in my box.

(Snoring)

Look, Maggie.

They’re both asleep.

(Clucking)

Oh, I must’ve dozed off!

(Chuckling)

(Yawning)

Did Hamilton find the trouble?

Yes!

He’s fixing it now.

Your truck is all fixed, ladies.

I had to put a new elastic on the pedals.

How can we ever thank you?

Oh, that’s quite all right.

No, Rita is right.

We must do something to thank you.

How would you like us to perform for you?

Perform?

Perform?

Yes!

We played all over the world

before we moved here to Nowhere Land.

We decided it was time to retire,

but frankly, I miss it.

So, we’d be happy to go through our routine.

Mm-hmm!

Of course, we would need a stage.

We can set up a stage!

I’ll help!

Meanwhile, we’ll make our other egg deliveries,

and then come right back!

See you in a bit!

(Giggling)

Uhh, all right then.

Ms. Rita and Ms. Lou-lou on the stage?

They probably do bird calls while knitting tea cozies.

(Laughing)

I like tea cozies.

I think they’re just about ready to start.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome!

I’m Hamilton Hocks!

And now,

straight from their long run on Broadway,

may I introduce... the Chicken Ladies!

(Piano music playing)

Hey, Rita.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

I don’t know, Lou-lou.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Hey, Rita.

Why did the chewing gum cross the road?

I don’t know, Lou-lou!

Why did the chewing gum cross the road?

’Cause it was stuck to the chicken!

(Laughing)

BOTHWoo!

(Applauding)

(Cheering)

Thank you very much.

Oh, you’re a wonderful audience.

I had a feeling something special

was going to happen today.
[ … ]

And you sure were right, Maggie.

(Laughing)

(Humming)

Nothing makes me a happier chap

than taking a little afternoon nap.

(Yawning)

(Chirping)

Oh.

Shh!

(Chirping)

(Cracking)

(Chirping)

(Cracking)

(Chirping)

(Cracking)

(Chirping)

Oh.

(Groaning)

Shh!

(Chirping)

Shoo, shoo, shoo!

Away with you!

(Chirping)

That settles it!

I’m moving away.

There’s too much noise here for me to stay.

(Chirping)

Mmm!

A splendid breakfast, Hamilton!

Thank you!

You’re very welcome!

What’s on the agenda today?

Agenda?

What kind of a big, fancy word is that?

It means, "what are we going to do today?"

Well, why don’t you just say that then?

(Giggling)

Maggie, Maggie!

I don’t mean to yell, but I really do need your help!

What’s wrong?

Those birds won’t stop their very loud cheeping!

I need a new hole where I’ll have no trouble sleeping!

Birds are keeping you awake?

Are they very big birds?

No, no, no.

They’re just little and wee!

But they’re making too much noise for me.

Well, let’s find you a new place to live.

Hmm.

Oh!

Why don’t you move to Cheese Town?

Rudy lives there.

You could be neighbours!

Good idea.

He’s a kind, little mouse.

It’s a perfect place for my brand-new house!

And there aren’t any birds!

Just the dee-licious smell of cheese.

That’s okay.

I like that smell.

As long as it’s quiet, it’ll work out well!

Would you like some help moving?

We’re not doing anything today.

That’s right.

We’re not agenda-ing anything!

(Chuckling)

Oh, yes.

Thanks a bunch.

Come to Cheese Town right after lunch.

Oh, and Hamilton, I hope it’s okay.

Can I borrow your box for the move today?

My... box?

Please, Hamilton.

You must understand.

It’s the only box in Nowhere Land.

Oh.

I really don’t know.

I have carrots, and yo-yos, and a tall magic hat.

I’ll need a big box to move all of that.

Uhh, I would, but...

And I have a big photo album of my whole family!

It has all my relatives posing with me!

I have chairs, and a bed, and a huge cooking pot.

You have to admit, that is quite a lot.

Oh, brother.

Ohh.

All right, you can borrow it.

Woo-hoo!

Hurry up, Hamilton!

All right, all right!

Well, that’s the last of it.

Ohh.

Maggie, do you think my box will be okay?

It’ll be fine!

We’ll all be very careful with it.

You’re helping out a friend!

That’s a very nice thing to do.

Yes, I suppose.

(Sighing)

Let’s go.
[ … ]

Here we are!

Now we just have to find Nedley!

Hey!

It’s raining dirt!

I bet it’s Nedley.

Hello, Nedley!

Hello, everyone.

Just give me a minute, I’m nearly done.

It looks very cozy down there.

The living room will be done real soon.

Then I’ll start on my big bedroom.

So, Hamilton Hocks.

Did you bring that box?

Yes.

It will sure do the trick.

Your box will make my move real quick.

Just please...

Please be careful with it, will you?

I know what this box means to you.

If I wasn’t a rabbit, why, I’d live in one, too!

Really?

But I am a rabbit, and as you can see,

when comes to a home, it’s a hole for me.

If my box gets damaged, what will I do?

Maybe Nedley will let you live in his new hole with him!

Oh, oh no.

I’m a pig.

I need my box!

(Squeaking)

(Chirping)

I see what you mean about the birds, Nedley.

(Chirping)

(Gasping)

Ooh, they’re so cute!

Hello, little birdies.

(Shrieking)

Sorry, ma’am.

Boy, Nedley.

You have almost as much stuff as Hamilton!

Oh, nice airplane!

Can I play with it, Nedley?

Oh, yes.

Please enjoy.

It’s really quite a fun, little toy.

Vroom!

Neow!

This is the last.

We are finally done.

Isn’t moving a whole lot of fun?

Neow!

The box is overflowing.

We really should get going.

HAMILTONNeow!

Aren’t you going to say goodbye?

I’m a rabbit of very few words...

So...

Umm...

Goodbye, birds!

(Chirping)

You’re my best friends, without a doubt.

Thank you all for helping me out.

Wait, Nedley!

You forgot to pack your airplane.

For being such a pal and lending me your box,

I’ll let you keep it, Hamilton Hocks.

(Gasping)

I can keep it?

Really?

Thanks, Nedley!

Thanks a lot!

(Groaning)

Oh! Oh, careful, Beast!

(Groaning)

Vroom!

I vote for the desert.

It would be nice to see Calli

and our little cactus friend again!

How about some place we haven’t been before?

I’m happy to go anywhere you choose.

Hmm.

(Gasping)

Uh-oh.

Maggie, here comes my cousin, Reggie.

Oh, I hope he’s in a better mood than usual.

I wouldn’t count on it.

Reggie Van Beast.

How are you?

It’s good to see you, Reggie.

Naturally.

This isn’t starting off too well.

Are you just passing through?

No, I didn’t have anything better to do,

so I thought I’d just drop in on you.

Oh.

It’s too bad we weren’t expecting you.

We were just about to leave.

Why don’t I just tag along?

Where are you going?

We thought we’d visit our friend, Calli, in the desert!

You’re welcome to come along.
[ … ]

The desert?

It’s too hot.

And who is Calli?

Calli is a camel.

A camel?

Pee-yew!

They stink.

That’s not very nice, Reggie!

Calli is our friend.

He’s very wise, and he doesn’t smell!

And that’s where we’re going.

Oh, well...

I’ll tag along.

(Sighing)

You’re going the wrong way, Beast.

Am not. Are, too.

Am not!

Those two have been bickering since we started.

See?

I told you.

There’s the desert.

Of all the places in Nowhere Land,

you pick the desert where we’ll be walking on sand.

(Groaning)

Well, what would you expect to be walking on in a desert?

Hmph, we should’ve gone somewhere else.

You didn’t have to come along.

Now, stop, you two!

We’re here!

(Chuckling)

Ow, my feet are burning!

The sand is so hot!

To you, this is fun.

To me, it is not.

(Blowing)

Why don’t you turn back, Reggie?

You can find your way home.

And ruin the trip?

(Sighing)

I don’t see Calli yet.

Are you feeling any better, Reggie?

I need water.

Well, there is none.

We had to use it to wet the towel around your head.

(Moaning)

Here comes Calli!

Hello, Calli!

Greetings, Little Miss Maggie,

Hamilton, and the Great Spotted One.

What brings you to my desert today?

We came to see you, Calli.

And who have we here?

Oh, this is Reggie Van Beast.

He’s my cousin.

Welcome, my friend.

You seem a bit... distressed.

Too much sand.

Too much sun.

I find your desert not much fun.

I’m sorry to hear that, Reggie Van Beast.

Perhaps, before you leave,

I’ll be able to change your mind.

Hmph, doubt it.

Wait one minute!

What’s that I see?

It’s water.

It’s water!

Follow me!

No, no, Reggie!

What you see out there is a mirage!

Hmph!

Hamilton’s right.

It’s a mirage.

It’s caused by the heat of the sun on the sand.

It looks like water, but it’s not really there.

Nonsense.

I’m going.

Please, friend, I wouldn’t do that.

I see water.

Water!

I must have water!

We’ll have to bring him back.

Listen very carefully to me.

You are all to stay here.

I don’t want to have to bring all of you back.

Ooh, Calli.

Reggie is getting farther and farther away!

He sure is traveling fast.

I can hardly see him anymore.

Yes.

Shouldn’t you go after him?

I suppose it’s time for me to set out.

Now, rememberdo not follow me.

Do you see them yet, Maggie?

Oh... no sign of them!

Look!

There’s the little cactus.

Hello, little cactus!

Hello! Hello, little cactus!

You should be able to see them by now.
[ … ]

Don’t worry, Beast.

They’re probably behind a sand dune.

(Gasping)

I was right!

I see them coming over a dune!

(Wheezing)

Follow me.

(Groaning)

Are you out of your mind?

I can’t move another step!

It’s just a little farther, Sir Reggie.

Drink, my friends.

(Slurping)

Isn’t it delicious, Reggie?

(Slurping)

A bit too sweet for my taste.

(Groaning)

Sit here, Sir Reggie.

Perhaps a bit of shade will improve your mood.

(Groaning)

I was so sure I saw water.

(Chuckling)

You are not the first to be tricked by a mirage.

I don’t like to be made to look like a fool.

You’re lucky my temperature has started to cool.

Ahh, Sir Reggie appears to be feeling better.

Good, because we have to go home soon.

I’ll fill the canteens.

(Bubbling)

Thank you, Calli.

Yes, thank you.

Aren’t you going to thank Calli, Reggie?

He did bring you back.

I suppose.

Thank you, Calli.

It was nothing, my friend.

Do come back and see me again.

I’m sure you will find my desert

a more friendly place the next time.

I’m sure I will.

ALLGoodbye!

You’re going the wrong way again, Beast.

Am not.

Are, too.

Am not!

Are, too!

Not! Too!

MAGGIEOh, you two.
