01x37 - Invasion of the Tweedle Snatchers

[bunniefuu]

[upbeat music playing]

Careful, Dinah.

You almost knocked Mars
right out of the sky.

This mobile is for my science report.

It shows all the nine planets
in the solar system.

See?

Here's Mars.

And Venus.

-[meows]
-Jupiter.

And Earth.

It's called the solar system,
because "solar" means sun.

And all the planets move around the sun.

I wonder if I'll ever get a chance
to travel through outer space.

Well,

I know one place to go

that's out of this world.

[Dee] Hatter.

Hello?

Anybody home?

Hm. I guess they're not here.

Look, they left a note.

"That's right, we're not here."

I wonder where they went.

"We went jogging."

Jogging? Even the Dormouse?

"Yes, even the Dormouse."

Too bad. I was hoping that Hatter
would be here for his gift.

Right. It's always nice
for someone to be present

when you give them a present.

I like that. Good.

Ah! As long as you're giving presents,
I'm present.

Sorry, this is for the Hatter.

Actually, for his nephew,
little Beanie Hatter.

It's a remote-controlled flying saucer.

Ah! Mm!

I don't have much use for flying saucers,

unless...

they're flying saucers of cream. Ha, ha!

Sorry, Cat, but this flying saucer

is the toy spaceship kind.

Hatter's been looking
for a birthday present for his nephew.

And when we spotted this,

we knew it was perfect.

See you around, Cat.

You don't have to scat just like that.

You could leave the present...

with me.

Oh, I'll make sure the Hatter sees it.

-Well...
-[purring]

Okay.

-Here's the spaceship.
-Here's the remote control.

-Thanks, Cat.
-Thanks, Cat.

Bye-bye.

[cackling]

The Hatter will see his present all right.

[purring and laughing]

He just won't see me.

[cackles]

Whoa! Oh!

Oh, sorry.

Oh!

Whoa!

-Whoa!
-Oh! Oh!

Well, I won't be eating
that tortoise's dust in this year's race.

What a great run.

You said it.

There's nothing like a little exercise
to keep the old ticker going.

Did running make you thirsty?
How about some tea?

-Nice idea.
-Oh, yes.

[flying saucer whirring]

What's that sound?

Dormouse, did you leave your phone
off the hook again?

Ah! Look out!

It must have been his phone.

-Oh. Care for a crumpet, Hatter?
-Certainly.

Let me get the butter.

How strange.

Not really, they're the same crumpets
we always have.

[Cheshire Cat] Greetings.
Please pass the cream and sugar.

Oh, how rude of me not to have offered--

[yelling]

What's that?

[stammers] It looks like a flying saucer.

It is a flying saucer!

Who... are you?

We are little green...

space invaders.

Space invaders?

Space invader! [yells]

Is there an echo in here?

What do you want from us?

[Cheshire Cat]
We are here from another galaxy

to study your planet.

Whoa!

[groaning]

We have to warn the rest of Wonderland.

Listen, uh, space invaders, um...

Why don't you stay here

and, uh, we'll be right back.

Right.

And, uh, help yourself to some tea
and crumpets, you know?

-[yells]
-[yells]

[yelling]

Thank you.

Don't mind if I do.

[purrs, then laughs]

Space invaders.

Good shot, Alice.

Well done.

-Well done indeed-- Oh.
-Oh!

[clears throat]

-[ball ricochets]
-[glass shatters]

Oh! Uh...

Even better shot, Your Majesty. Smashing.

The spaceships are coming!

The spaceships are coming!

[gasping]

The spaceships are coming!

What's the matter, Mr. Hatter?

Alice, this is no time for cute rhymes.

Wonderland is being invaded

by creatures from outer space.

Creatures from outer space?

What on Earth are you talking about?

I'm not talking about anything on Earth,

I'm talking about something
from another planet.

It all sounds a little far-fetched to me.

I'll say it's far-fetched.

As in from across the galaxy.

There we were,

Hare and I,

enjoying our tea,

when suddenly we heard a strange sound.

Are you sure
it wasn't your stomachs growling?

Okay, you laugh now.
But just you wait until

the little green creatures
and the flying saucers speak to you.

The space invaders actually spoke to you?

-How did they sound?
-Actually their English was quite good.

-[laughing]
-Oh, Hatter!

This is quite a tale.

One of them hard to believe.

I'm telling you, Your Majesty,

there was a flying saucer at my tea party.

Oh, come now, Hatter.

At your tea parties,

the cups and saucers are always flying.

-Oh.
-[laughing]

Fine.

Don't believe me.

But you'll be singing a different tune
when you see that spaceship.

Oh, I think you've been
jumping to conclusions.

Nope. I haven't been jumping anywhere,
my feet are right here on the ground.

Oh.

No, Mr. Hatter.

Jumping to conclusions
is a figure of speech.

It means to decide on something
before you know the facts.

Right.

And there must be another explanation
for what you saw.

Perhaps it was a bird.

Or a plane.

Or a fruit bat.

Oh. No matter what it was,
there's no need for panic in the streets.

Panic in the street!

Panic in the street!

Panic in the street!

Panic in the--

My goodness, Hare,
what are you bellowing about?

I'm here to warn you.
Flying saucers have landed.

Nonsense.

It was only me practicing with these.

Whoo! Whoo! Whoo-hoo!

This flying saucer was no toy, I tell you.

Hatter and I saw it with our own eyes.
And what's more?

The space creatures inside spoke to us.

Really?

You gotta believe me!

In no time,

there could be little green creatures
all over Wonderland.

I don't see what's so scary
about green creatures.

In fact, it seems to me

you should calm down for a moment.

And listen to this story.

This is tale of the planet called Clone.

The lifeforms on Clone
were very proud of themselves.

From their green heads
to their purple toes,

they liked the way they look.

Then one day,

Clone 978 was born.

As 978 grew up...

it became clear there was a problem.

You see, 978 was a little...

different.

"No, no, no. We don't want different,"
said all the other clones.

They shunned the pink-haired clone.

978 started a rumor that pink hair
was a sign of intelligence.

The rumor spread,

and one by one the other clones
started dyeing their hair pink.

Because they wanted
to look intelligent too.

And for the first time,

978 fit right in.

But looking like all the other clones
was no fun.

And soon 978 had blue hair.

And the other intelligent-looking clones
chose 978 as their leader

because they couldn't
tell anyone else apart.

You see, even though they had pink hair...

they were not as smart as they looked.

[chuckles]

No offense, Caterpillar,

but who cares what color of hair
the space invaders have?

The point is,
while you calmly sit here telling stories,

they're probably landing
all over Wonderland.

Hare.

Hare.

Hare!

Even if there are space invaders,

which I find unlikely

and unbelievable,

why are you jumping to the conclusion

that they are unfriendly?

Uh...

I don't know.

I suppose they could be nice.

-Caterpillar, you're right.
-Naturally.

The least we can do
is make them feel welcome.

After all, wouldn't you be tired
after flying halfway across the universe?

I suppose so.

[laughing]

Hm. Still no Hatter.

And I don't see that cat anywhere either.

[meows] Just because you don't see me
doesn't mean I'm not present.

Oh, there you are.

So, did the Hatter see
the remote-controlled flying saucer?

Oh, he saw it all right.

Did he like it?

Hm. Wouldn't say like,

I'd say it wasn't quite his cup of tea.

[meows]

That explains
why he hasn't thanked us for it yet.

But even if he didn't like the spaceship,

he should still thank us
for thinking of him.

Let's find him.

If he doesn't want the flying saucer,
we might as well take it back.

You know, Hare,

the Caterpillar's right.

We shouldn't jump to conclusions.

The space invaders
are probably as nice as can be.

Right. Just because they're small
and green and from another planet,

doesn't mean we can't be friends.

Afterall, it's not like
they came to Wonderland

-to take over our minds or something.
-Right.

[Dee] Yeah, I hear you.

And, Dum, once I see that Hatter,
I'm gonna give him a piece of my mind.

Why get angry at him?

With a little time, we can convince him
to like our little spaceship

as much as we do.

Our spaceship? What does that mean?

It's probably nothing,
but we better listen some more.

[Dum] Maybe you're right.

Once the Hatter sees how great
our spaceship is,

-he won't be able to stay away from it.
-Exactly.

Pretty soon he'll be just like us.

He'll wish he could spend all his time

flying the flying saucer. Ha, ha!

Just like us?

Flying the flying saucer?

Hare, do you realize what this means?

The Tweedles are going way out of town
for their vacation this year?

Yeah--

No.

That the space invaders

have taken over the Tweedles' minds.

[sobbing]

-Your Majesty!
-Oh!

Your Majesty!

Close the doors! Lock the windows!

-Batten down the hatches--
-What's going on?

It's the space invaders, Your Majesty.

Oh, not again.

They've taken over the minds
of the Tweedles.

[laughing]

That's a great joke, Mr. Hare.

It's no joke.
We overheard the Tweedles talking about

flying saucers
and spending time in outer space.

And now they're coming after the Hatter
to make him be just like them.

Oh, please, Your Majesty!

Don't let the space invaders get me.

Stop this. Get a hold of yourself, Hatter.
You're being ridiculous.

How true that is.

But I can't travel through outer space.

I'm afraid of heights.

Here comes Mr. Dee and Mr. Dum now.
I'm sure they can explain the whole thing.

[stammering]

-If they want me, I'm not here.
-And I'm not here with him.

Excuse me, have any of you
seen our flying saucer?

You actually have a flying saucer?

Sure. It's really great.

We'll show it to you

after we talk to the Hatter about it.

Have you seen him?
We'd really like to talk to him.

Uh...

Why are you looking for him?

Apparently he didn't like the spaceship
when he first saw it.

But we think we can change his mind.

[dramatic sting plays]

Anyway, if you see him,

let him know that we're looking for him.

Now do you believe us?

Oh! Your Majesty, this is just awful.

You must do something.

What do you want me to do?

You're the queen.

You can order the space invaders
to leave us in peace.

[stammers] I don't know if I can. [gasps]

I agree. the space invaders
are from another planet.

To them, Your Majesty might be
nothing more than some ordinary person

-in a funny red dress.
-What?

I mean, uh, not funny as in "ha-ha-ha-ha"

but, uh, funny as in strange--

I mean, not strange so much as, uh...

beautiful and in very good taste.

This is an outrage.

No space invaders are gonna treat me
like anything ordinary.

Do you really believe

the space invaders are controlling
the Tweedles' thoughts?

If they are...

I'll tell you one thing.

I'll put a stop to it.

Nobody's going to tell my subjects
what to think.

Unless it's me.

♪ We are blessed with the best ♪

♪ She's our queen ♪

[suspenseful music playing]

There they are.

They look normal to me.

Sure, they look fine.

But their every move
is controlled by the space invaders.

How else do you explain
what they're doing?

Maybe they're hungry.

Alice, Alice, if only that were true.

Now's your chance, Your Majesty.

-What? What?
-Yes.

-Go get them.
-Yes.

-Go, go, go.
-All right.

-I'm going. Don't rush me.
-Get them.

-[clears throat]
-Oh!

-Hi, Your Majesty.
-Would you like a sandwich?

Is this some kind of trick?

-No. Peanut butter and jelly.
-Oh. Uh...

Tweedle Dee?

Tweedle Dum?

I don't know if you can hear me.

-No problem, Your Majesty.
-Your voice carries.

I'm here to help.

Attention, space invaders.

As Queen of Wonderland,

I command you to let my Tweedles go!

Are you all right, Your Majesty?

I'm fine. Now get back to your spaceships.

And leave my subjects alone.

Oh, wait.

I get it.

This is a joke, right?

Somebody's getting this whole thing
on their video camera.

-[laughing]
-[flying saucer whirring]

[Cheshire Cat] Hello, we just flew in
from another galaxy.

And, boy, are our arms tired.

Back, I say,

and get your green grubby
space invader fingers off my subjects.

Wait a minute, I see what's going on here.

Oh! Tweedle Dee, be careful,

the space invaders probably don't like
people grabbing their flying saucers.

Your Majesty,
this flying saucer is just a toy.

-What?
-It works by remote control.

What are you saying?

He's saying the space invaders
aren't little and green.

They're big and purple.

Cat!

[purrs] Sorry, oh, leader of Wonderland.

[chuckles] But you can't blame a cat
for having a little fun.

[cackling]

Not so fast.

Are you asking us to believe that the Cat
could actually fool the Hare and me

into believing in space invaders?

Unbelievable.

No, what's unbelievable

is that any of us actually listened
to the two of you.

Space invaders indeed.

So you're sure
no one took over your minds?

We're sure.

We got this toy spaceship

because we knew you were looking
for a present for your nephew.

Right.

-Thanks.
-Sorry, we jumped to the conclusion

you were hapless victims of an evil plot
by space invaders

to take over the universe
by controlling your thoughts

and turning you into mindless servants
of their dark and sinister plan.

Phew!

No problem.

The good news is

that at least Mr. Hatter
ends up with a great present

to give to his nephew.

Not just a great present, Alice.

A present that you might say is...
out of this world.
