[ playful chatter ]

All right.
Gather 'round, everyone.

I've been checking
the official lake hoohaw
have fun calendar,

And it says the day has come
to make teams...

For the lake hoohaw
junior track games.

[ All ]
yay !

How are we gonna
make teams, mayor jeff ?

- The rule book
doesn't say, jelly.
- What does it say, mayor jeff ?

That poodles
always win ?
[ Both laugh ]

Actually,
this entire rule book
only has four rules:

One: play hard.
Two: play fair.

Three: play together.
And four: have fun.

Play hard ?
Play fair ?

- [ Both ]
play together ?
- And have fun.

That's it ?

I find it hard to believe
it doesn't say poodles
always win.

So, how do you
wanna make teams ?

I don't know.
No clue.

By age ?
By height ?
By smell ?

Well, since
they're track games,

Why don't we have a race
and the two winners
can be the captains.

[ All ]
yeah !

That's a great idea, munchy.
Let's race.

On your marks.
Get set. Go !

Would it be okay
if I didn't race,
mayor jeff ?

- Of course, pinch.
- Good. 'Cause I'd rather
just dance real fast.

[ All panting ]

[ Panting ]

Huh ?

[ All panting ]

Yeah !

Whoo !
♪ La la la la la ♪♪

All right !
Great race !

Way to go, ootsie.
Way to go !

Way to go, jelly.
Great running, peanut.

Hey, where's munchy ?
There he is !

- Go, munchy !
Go, munchy !
- [ Panting ]

Oh !
[ peanut ] munchy ?
no, munchy !

- No, munchy !
No, munchy !
- Mmm. Mmm.

The taste of
wild hickory nuts. Mmm !

[ All ]
yay !

Ootsie, you are the captain
of the hoo team.

And, jelly,
you are the captain
of the haw team.

[ Kids cheer ]

And since you won
the race, jelly,
you get first pick.

That's okay.
Ootsie can pick first
if he wants.

That way he and bootsie
can be together.

- I pick bootsie.
- Pinch, are you gonna
be in the games ?

No, thanks, jelly.
I'd rather just cheer.

Run to the left !
Run to the right !

Run so far
you're out of sight !

Go, hoo team !
Go, haw team !

Go, hoohaw !
Go-o-o, teams !

- I'll take peanut.
- I'll take flick.

I'll take munchy.
Are you sure, jelly ?

Sure, I'm sure, munchy.
We really want you
on our team.

- Yeah, munch.
- But I'd rather chew wood.

Munchy ?
Mmm !

You know, munch.
You just gotta keep your mind
on what we're doing.

Well, mostly my mind
is on wood.

We'll work on that.
We're a team.

Okay, hoos and haws.

You have all day
to practice for the games.
Get to it !

[ Kids cheer ]

[ Grunts ]

Jump, peanut.
Jump !

Go, peanut !

Oh, a sawdust snack !

[ Panting ]

Mmm. Mmm.
Yum, yum, yum.

[ Grunts ]
[ both ]
oh !

Sorry, peanut.
My mind drifted
to wood again.

Go, poodles !

Go, poodles !

Go, poodles !
Cheese and quackers.
What am I saying ?

Go, ducks !
[ Laughs ]

[ Both ]
wow. We'll win
the long jump for sure.

Go, hoos !

Ready, peanut ?
[ Panting ]

Ready !

Ready, munchy ?
[ Panting ]

Ready !

All right !
Huh ?
[ crunch ]

[ chewing ]

Hmm. Woody,
with a hint of more wood.

♪♪ [ Humming ]

Hmm ? Hmm ?
Sorry.

[ ootsie ]
nice going, guys.

Except I don't think
stick chewing
is one of the events.

[ Laughing ]

High-five,
ootsie and bootsie.

'Cause the hoo team
is lookin' sassy.

Go, hoos !
[ Laughing ]

Don't look so down, guys.
We're having fun, aren't we ?

Yeah, sure.
But our team's
not looking so hot, jelly.

Actually, I don't think
it could get any worse.

[ ernest ]
the big track meet's tomorrow.
you guys ready ?

Kinda.
Sorta.

You kids don't sound
so sure.

We haven't been very good
in practice.

- I don't think we'll win.
- When I was in the lake hoohaw
junior track games,

It wasn't about winning.

It was about playing hard,
playing fair,

Playing together
and having fun.

- [ Both ] it still is.
- Okay, then tomorrow morning,

You'll get up
and go have fun.

[ Giggles ]

[ Both ]
we love you.
Good night.

- [ Kids ] we love you too.
- hey, daddy.

Thanks.

[ opal ]
peanut ! Jelly ! Butter !

time to get up.
today's the day !

All right !
Go, haws !

Haws !

Hey, jelly.
I'm gonna get munchy.

We'll meet you
at the track.

we are the haws !
mighty and strong !

Root for us,
and you can never go wrong !
[ crash ]

- Oh, dear !
- Ow !

Very wrong.

What happened ?

My ankle.
It hurts.

Honey, I think I'd better
take you to the doctor.

Oh, no !
What about the track meet ?

[ Grunts ]

- [ Gasp ]
- [ all gasp ]

oh, no, jelly.
are you okay ?
what happened ?

- The doctor says
it's sprained.
- Does it hurt much ?

Not as much as
not being able to play
in the track games.

Oh, no !
This is terrible.

What are we gonna do
without jelly ?
Lose.

I'm sorry, guys.
I've really let
the team down.

[ All ] go, hoos !
[ peanut ] hey, guys.

We have a problem.
Jelly hurt herself,
and now she can't play.

That is a problem.
What are you gonna do ?

[ Both ]
lose.

I'm sorry.
I know I've let
everybody down.

It's really not
your fault, jelly.
Accidents happen.

You know,
maybe we shouldn't
just give up.

Maybe we could think
of something else.

You're right, jelly.
This looks like a job
for a noodle dance.

♪♪ [ dance ]

♪ noodle ♪

♪ noodle
do the noodle dance ♪♪

- I've got it !
- What ?
What happened ? What ?

We turn your crutches
into pogo sticks,

and then you could bounce
your way through the games.

[ munchy ] or we put rockets
on one of your crutches
and voom !

[ jelly ] I don't think
using a pogo stick or rockets
would be fair, guys,

- 'Cause nobody else
would have 'em.
- Oh, that's right.

How about we get
an instant foot-fixer
laser machine thingy,

and we put you in it
and make your foot
all better ?

Yay !

- How about that ?
- I've never seen one of those.
Have you, bootsie ?

No, but I bet daddy
could pay someone
to have it made.

But that would leave
less money for dad
to spend on us.

Oh, you're right.
Never mind.

We could just wait
until jelly's foot is better.

- That's a great idea, flick.
- It is ?
Oh, yeah, it is.

Just one
of the many great ideas
I have every day.

But I don't want everything
to stop because of me.

That wouldn't be fair
either.

Hey, maybe there's a way
for the games to go on
and still have jelly play.

I had so much fun,
I didn't chew a single thing.

[ Kids cheering ]

[ munchy ] although,
my mind does keep drifting
to those wooden crutches.

[ peanut ]
munchy ? No, munchy !
[ crunch ]

Here he comes !

You ready ? Today's the day
we're gonna hike
to the top of mt. Hoohaw.

Ootsie and bootsie
said they're gonna
hike up there too.

Well, nobody's
gonna get there
if we don't get movin'.

All right !
Whoopee !
Let's go !

Bye-bye, mama.
Bye, mom.

Hey, ootsie.
Hey, bootsie.

So, are you guys
gonna hike to the top
of mt. Hoohaw too ?

We're gonna try.

We poodles
are not equipped
just for trying.

We're equipped for doing.

Check out my backpack.

It's my deluxe
outdoor gear containment
system model 3250.

[ Both ]
ooh !

Check this out.
A personal fan.

Well, my super deluxe
outdoor gear containment
system 6500...

Is twice as good.

Look. A personal fan
and water spritzer.

What special features
does your backpack have,
peanut ?

Well, my backpack has
a place to put stuff.

Oh, how--
backpack-like.
[ Laughs ]

Check out our footsie tronic
hiking boots--
the best money can buy.

They have built-in
foot massagers.

[ Both laugh ]

Do your boots have
that feature, peanut ?

Well, uh, not exactly.
No.

And our dad's
capatronic hat 1000...

Is equipped with
surroundsound stereo.

♪♪ [ Dogs barking ]
it also bakes cookies.

What does
your dad's hat do, peanut ?

Uh--
it sits on his head.

Oh, I see.

How wonderfully...
Hat-like.

[ Both laugh ]

Okay, g*ng.
It's time to get started.

Well, mr. Snooty,
see you at the top.

Yes, mr. Otter.
We'll be waiting there
for you.

[ All laugh ]

Ready to hit
the trail, daddy ?

We wanna be first
to the top, right ?

Well, it's fine
if we get there first,

But let's just enjoy
the hike.
[ Kids ] okay.

Now let me check
our equipment
one last time.

You know, ernest,

The deluxe outdoor
gear containment system

Uh-huh.

Poodles, I am now turning on
the satellite tracking system.

[ Beeping ]

[ Beeping ]

[ computer voice ]
walk this way.

This way, bootsie.
After you, ootsie.

Almost done, dad ?
What else
is on your list ?

Just one last thing--
my trusty camping hat,

Complete with one tube
of itch no more
anti-itch cream.

Come on, dad.
I can't wait
to get to the top.

Well, then,
let's get hiking.

All right !
Let's go !

- Halt !
- [ Both ] off !

whoa !
[ splash ]

[ Growls ]

What's going on, dad ?
Looks like
we got trouble.

The bridge must have fallen
in that last big storm.

Luckily my rain poncho
can double...

As a portable
inflatable bridge.

Wow !
How cool !

Yeah !

Whoa !
[ Screams ]

Now how are we gonna
get across ?

No problem.
A lake hoohaw
mountain ranger...

Is always prepared.

Now, where did I put
those big rubber pants ?

[ Both ]
whoa !

You know what, daddy ?
Those are some cool pants.

[ Sizzling ]

We thought you'd
never make it.

So while we waited,
we had our nails done.

Hmm.
Hmm.

Well, my satellite mountain
location system suggests
we take the "shortcut."

Let's go, poodles.

Uh, hang on, edouard.
I think that's a mistake.

Mistake ?
Why, my equipment
is the best money can buy.

Yeah, but--
it doesn't make mistakes !

But--
if you don't want
to come the right way,

We'll just go to the top
without you.
But--

Okay, kids.
The shortcut's
right this way.

Dad, maybe the poodles
are right, and the shortcut
is the way to go.

Trust me, peanut.
I think we're better off
taking the long way.

Dad, how can mr. Snooty's
satellite location system
wristwatch be wrong ?

It is the best
money can buy.

His wristwatch doesn't know
that the shortcut trail...

Goes right through
a field of itchy grass.

I marked it here on my map
a long time ago.

You don't want to get
caught in itchy grass
if you can help it.

[ Both ]
how come ?
You get itchy.

Oh.
That makes sense.

Dad, how come we don't have
really cool camping gear
like the poodles ?

We do, peanut.

Take this compass, for instance.
The arrow always points north.

Pretty cool, huh ?
Your grandpa taught me
how to use it,

And I've always been able
to find my way.

What about
your flashlight, daddy ?
How did it get that dent ?

I dropped it in a stream
and it went over mammoth falls.

Wow !
That's the biggest
waterfall ever.

I fished it out
at the bottom.

It was still working,
and it has ever since.

But what if something happens
and we need some high-tech
equipment and we don't have it ?

Don't worry.
We'll be fine.

With my trusty camping hat,
our backpack full of gear
and our noodles,

We can think ourselves
out of any scrape.
[ Kids ] yeah !

Dad, we're there !
I mean, here ! Look !

We're at the top.
We made it !

We made it.
All right !
Yay !

Man, that shortcut
sure is taking the poodles
a long time.

Yeah. I hope
nothing's wrong.

Come help. Quick !
[ Barking ]

[ Groaning ]

It's itchy grass, dad.
Just like you said.

Hmm ? Oh, don't mind me.
[ Groaning ]

How are we going to get
mr. Snooty out, daddy ?

[ Both ]
yes, how ?

[ Groaning,
howling ]

Yes, how ?
[ Groaning ]

I know. We can do it
if we use our noodles.

Come on, everyone.
Let's noodle dance.

♪♪ [ dance ]

♪ noodle ♪

♪ noodle
do the noodle dance ♪♪

I got it !

we can get a giant pair
of barbecue tongs...

and lift him right on out
of that itchy old grass.

That's a great idea, jel.

Any ideas where we could find
giant barbecue tongs up here ?
No.

Do you poodles
have any other cool
techno gizmos...

That we could use
to get him out ?

No. All we have left
are these solar sock warmers.

They do also
make french fries.

[ Bell dings ]
[ both ]
mmm !

That gives me an idea.

what if we plant
giant pompalope seeds,

and when
the giant pompalopes grow,

mr. Snooty can jump
from one to the other and get
out of that itchy grass.

Good idea.
But I'm afraid
it would take too long.

"Long" doesn't work for me.
[ Howls ]

Hmm. So we don't have
any fancy equipment,
and we don't have much time.

That's right, kids.
We'll just have to use
what we have and what we know.

Uh, what do we have ?

A compass,
a flashlight--
and our backpacks.

Big rubber pants.

Yeah, dad wore those cool pants
to carry us through the water.

Maybe he can use them
to get through something else.

[ Both ]
like itchy grass !

[ Cheering ]

[ Groaning ]

Itchy grass really
deserves its name.

Oh, that reminds me.

So does itch no more
anti-itch cream.

[ Groaning ]

[ Sighs ]

Come on, kids.
Let's get mr. Snooty home.

He's gonna need a lot more
itch no more anti-itch cream.

[ Poodles ]
thanks for saving the day,
mr. Otter.

Yeah, thank you, ernest.

Well, you should really thank
peanut and jelly.

They figured out
how to get you out
of the itchy grass.

Well, you're all great
outdoors persons,
and I thank you all.

You kids really did
some quick thinking
out there today.

I wanna give you each
something special.

Peanut, this hat will always
keep your noodle warm and safe.

Jelly, always remember
to bring my trusty compass
on your wild adventures,

- And you'll always
find your way home.
- Thanks, dad.

Wow !
We love you, daddy.

I'm really proud
of you two.

by the way, otter,
i sure learned
my lesson today.

Well, like my father
always taught me--

Keep it simple,
simple, simple.

Keep it simple.
Keep it simple.
Keep it simple.

And I have something
for you two as well--

Two tubes of itch no more
anti-itch cream.

Oh, thank you, mr. Otter.

That's okay.
You're gonna need it.

[ Both gasp,
groaning ]

I told you
that was itchy grass
you were hiking through.

No, as I remember,
I told you.

No, I distinctly remember--
