MIRA: The Mikku Mystery.

Ah! There's nothing like

eating nice, cold kulfi

on a hot summer day.

And every other day, too!

Guys, wait until you

see Prince Neel's new kulfi invention.

BOTH: Ooh!

He says it's going to

Change kulfi making as we know it.

-I'm listening.

-Tell me more.

Prince Neel, the kulfi cups are ready.

Excellent! Thanks, Kamala.

See these sticks? When I turn the crank,

each one will drop down into a cup

of kulfi and make the perfect pop.

Let's give it a whirl.

(GRUNTS)

The crank seems to be a little struck.

(GRUNTS)

Soggy samosas.

-Neel, flying sticks.

-How do you turn it off?

BOTH: Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine!

-Heads up, Mira.

-(GRUNTS) Got it.

We're running out of paws!

And tails!

I'm going to run back

to the palace and fix this crank.

I'll be back.

We'll be here.

Well, we don't want

all this kulfi to melt.

I will make it my mission

to finish it off.

And I will join you

in that mission, Mikku.

Kulfi! I want some, too.

-Hi Dimple.

-Dimple!

Join us. Welcome to the party!

Guess what, Mira! I got a new toy frog.

His name is Baduk.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Baduk.

(LAUGHS) That's silly, Mira.

He's a toy.

But Baduk can hop really high.

Wanna see?

(CLOCKWORK TICKING)

MIRA: Whoa! Look at it go.

Amazing!

That was the highest jump ever.

Wasn't it, Mikku?

Yeah, pretty high. (LAUGHS)

Mira, watch! He's gonna do it again.

Dimple, not in the

melted kulfi.

I'll help you clean it up.

Sorry, Kamala.

Baduk really loves jumping

and kulfi just like me.

I hope he also likes taking baths,

because he needs one.

And so do you.

Come on, Dimple.

-See you later.

-Bye, Dimple.

Mikku, did you see

Baduk jump into the kulfi?

That was great!

Mikku?

Hey, where is he?

Mira, I can't find Mikku.

That's strange. He was just here.

I'm back and I fixed the crank.

Neel, have you seen Mikku?

Uh, yeah, I just saw him.

He was heading home.

Why did he go home without telling me?

We always do everything together.

I was wondering that myself.

But he ran off before I could ask him.

He looked kind of scared.

That's the third time

he ran off looking scared today.

He ran off three times?

That's a lot. I wonder what's going on.

I don't know.

He's not afraid of the dark.

He doesn't think

there's a monster under the bed.

I've never seen

him scared of anything, ever.

Don't worry, Chikku. We'll figure it out.

-We're on the

-Mira, wait.

I can't go on the case without Mikku.

We find clues together.

We mess up together.

We're Mikku and Chikku.

(SADLY) Oh!

I know it's hard being

without your brother, Chikku.

So this time, how about Prince Neel

goes on the case with us?

You mean him?

Hey, I think most of us can agree

that I'm pretty good at messing up, too.

Whoa!

What do you say?

We'll be Neel and Chikku,

detective helpers.

Okay, sure.

But it's Chikku and Neel,

detective helpers until further notice.

Okay.

Mira, we have this.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Uh, it's "We got this."

Mira, we got this!

Great!

Then, we're on the case.

(PRINCE NEEL VOCALIZING)

Not bad for a first timer.

Mira, how are we gonna figure out

what's making Mikku scared?

Let's go find Mikku and see

if he'll tell us anything.

(KNOCKING)

-Mikku?

-Are you home?

Hello!

Hey, guys.

What are you doing here?

We came looking for you.

Mikku, why did you run home?

Because I, um, remembered

that I had to trim my whiskers.

You trimmed them this morning.

Yes, but I forgot to measure them.

You measure your whiskers?

MIKKU: Of course.

You have to measure them

before the final trim.

Mikku, I was wondering,

is there anything that happened today

that made you feel scared?

Scared? Me?

Nah, I'm never scared.

Well, better get back

to my whiskers. Later.

Well, we didn't get very far.

How come he's not telling us

why he's scared?

Sometimes when you're scared,

you don't want to tell people.

Maybe that's how Mikku feels.

So, what do we do now?

Let's go to the other places

where Mikku was when he ran off.

Maybe we can find some clues

about what made him feel scared.

Yeah. We'll look for clues.

(CHUCKLES) Hey, that's just like

what Mikku would say.

I'm a genius.

That's my line.

Okay, Chikku. Show us what happened.

CHIKKU: We were on our way

to our music lesson

when we passed by the toy store.

We decided to check out the new toys.

And that's the first time

Mikku ran away scared?

Yup. Right in that store.

Come on, I'll show you.

(DOOR BELL JINGLING)

Mikku and I came in to meet the new toys.

How you doin', Mr. Bear?

Welcome to Jalpur.

Prince Neel? A real handshake.

Put a little weight into it.

Like you mean it.

-Nice to meet you.

-Atta prince.

And then what happened, Chikku?

While I was busy

introducing myself to the soft toys,

Mikku went to check out

the other new toys.

And the next thing I knew,

he raced right out of the store.

But you didn't see what

was making him scared?

No. 'Cause I was

on my second round of handshakes.

Put it there.

Excuse me, Auntie.

What other new toys did you get in today?

Well, a wonderful

wooden train came in this morning.

As well as this

charming little toy peacock.

It has a spring on the bottom.

Press down and it jumps. (CHUCKLES)

Dimple has a toy that jumps, too.

-A frog.

-Oh, yes.

We had a frog as well.

Dimple's mother came in

earlier and bought it.

Mira, is that a clue?

I'm not sure yet. Let's keep looking.

Chikku, it's time to go.

Comin'.

So, after Mikku ran off, where did you go?

To my music lesson.

And Mikku was already there.

Let's go talk to the music teacher.

Maybe he knows something.

ALL: Namaste, Joshi sir.

Hello, Mira. Prince Neel.

Chikku, you're back. Where's Mikku?

That's why we're here, Joshi sir.

I need to ask you some questions

about Mikku.

Of course, Mira.

-How was his lesson today?

-He had a good lesson.

He's progressing very well on his tumbi.

Would you say I had a good lesson, too?

Or maybe a great lesson?

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY) Yes, Chikku.

Joshi sir, did you notice Mikku

acting any differently today?

Well, when his lesson was over,

he did leave in a hurry.

So quickly,

he forgot to take his tumbi with him.

Mikku loves his tumbi.

He wouldn't leave it behind

unless something was wrong.

Don't worry, Joshi sir.

I'll bring it back to him.

Thanks, Chikku.

And did you notice anything else?

Actually, when Mikku left,

he seemed a littlescared.

That's great news!

Prince Neel.

I mean, for our case.

Joshi sir, what happened

right before he got scared?

Well, Dimple came in

to show me a new toy she got.

You mean her frog?

-Yes.

-Got it.

That's a big help.

-Thank you for your time.

-Of course.

Mira, where do we go now?

Let's go back to the first place

we all saw Mikku run away.

Mama, watch this.

(CLOCKWORK TICKING)

Oh, Dimple.

Your toy frog is such a wonderful jumper.

Wait a second.

I think I know what's making

Mikku feel scared.

Let's think this through.

Mikku got scared and ran off

from three different places today.

In each place,

Dimple's jumping toy frog was there.

What if Mikku is scared of the toy frog?

Mira, Baduk is a toy.

Mikku loves toys.

Why would he be scared?

I'm not sure, Chikku.

Let's go talk to him and find out.

CHIKKU: Mikku, we're back!

Hi, there.

How's the whisker trimming going?

Pretty well if I do say so myself.

Looking good.

Mikku, can we talk to you for a second?

Uh, sure, Mira.

What's up?

You know how Dimple got a new toy frog?

We were wondering

Does the frog make you feel scared?

Me? Scared of a toy frog?

Please.

It's okay if you are.

We're here for you, Mikku.

Okay, fine.

I am.

I don't like the way Baduk hops.

It scares me.

But, I didn't want to tell you.

Mikku, we tell each other everything.

But you always say

I'm never afraid of anything.

And now I'm scared of a toy frog.

No one else is scared.

Everybody loves Baduk.

Mikku, everyone

is scared of different things.

When you're scared,

it's important to tell someone.

So they can help you.

I wish I didn't feel afraid of Baduk.

Sometimes it's good

to have a friend nearby.

And that friend can be me.

Mikku, when I'm scared,

you always help me.

This time, I'll help you.

(SINGING) You're my main mongoose

This is what we do ♪

Remember all the times

when you helped me, too? ♪

Like the day we were swimming

and I felt afraid ♪

I saw a big fish, but you made it okay ♪

Or what about that one time ♪

I had to climb high

You cheered me all the way ♪

To that dessert in the sky ♪

At first I wasn't sure ♪

But you said, "You can do it" ♪

I felt stronger and braver ♪

You got me through it ♪

If you're scared of something

I am here, all ears ♪

You can always talk to me ♪

If you're scared of something

I am here, all ears ♪

You can always talk to me ♪

Thanks, Chikku.

Did I really help you all those times?

Yep. And now I'm gonna help you.

(EXHALES) Okay.

I'm ready to meet that frog.

-All right.

-Let's do this, people.

We'll get Dimple and Baduk.

Meet you in the park.

Gooses! Over here.

I got Baduk.

Deep breath, Mikku.

You got this.

Maybe you should shake Baduk's leg first.

Yes.

Good idea.

Get to know him.

Huh.

Hello there, Mr. Baduk.

It is a pleasure to meet you.

Mikku, are you ready for Baduk to hop?

As ready as I'll ever be.

Here he goes!

(CLOCKWORK TICKING)

Hah! That was amazing.

And funny.

Hey, I'm not scared anymore.

Whoo-hoo! You did it!

Mikku, I'm so proud of you

for facing your fear.

And Chikku for helping him through.

This calls for a celebration.

Kulfi all around.

(MACHINE CRANKING)

Ah, it worked.

Great job, Neel.

Hey, where's Mikku? Mikku?

Hop, Mr. Baduk! Hop!

-Chikku, look at us!

-He-hey! Wait for me!

I love this frog!

MIRA: The Case of the Getaway Goats.

Good morning, Jalpur!

The mongooses are here and ready to jam.

CHIKKU: How do you like our new tune, Raj?

(RAJ SQUAWKING ANGRILY)

Here we are, guys. Joshi sir's house.

-(DIMPLE SQUEALS)

-Let's get you both to your music lesson.

Mira! Gooses!

-(GROANS)

-Okay!

Hi, Dimple.

Guess what? I'm taking

music lessons with Joshi sir.

Hey, so are we.

I learned my first song today.

-Wanna hear it?

-Not now, dear.

We have to go to the market.

Dimple just loves playing her new bansuri.

I love music!

So do we.

It's the best!

You can play for us

another time, okay, Dimple?

Okay. Bye.

(DIMPLE PLAYING MUSIC)

ALL: Namaste, Joshi sir.

Your favorite students are here.

Joshi sir?

-Hello?

-Where are you?

-JOSHI: Bhavna?

-Guys, hear that?

JOSHI: Bhavna?

Bhavna!

I think he's outside.

Bhavna!

This is not the time to

play "hide and goat seek!"

Joshi sir, is everything okay?

Oh, Mira.

I'm afraid not.

I can't find my goat, Bhavna, anywhere.

We can help you look for her.

-BOTH: Yeah.

-Oh, thank you.

-Bhavna!

-Come here, Bhavna.

Come out, come out, wherever you are.

Uh, she's not coming out.

(SIGHS) It's the strangest thing.

She was here in the yard.

Where could she have gone?

Don't worry. We'll find Bhavna.

We're on the case.

Can you tell me

the last time you saw Bhavna?

Right before Dimple's music lesson.

I fed her hay for breakfast.

In her trough?

Yes. Why?

Because it looks like

there's some hay on top of the gate.

-Let's look for more hay.

-Hay check.

Nope. Not finding any.

Yep. Right here, Mira.

Thanks, guys.

Looks like there's more hay out there.

You're kidding.

How did hay get out there?

I locked the gate.

Maybe Bhavna jumped over the gate

and dropped hay on the ground.

Jumped over the gate?

My perfectly well-trained, well-behaved

Bhavna?

So she's never jumped

over the gate before?

Never!

Well, except for that one time.

When I came back from a long trip,

I played her favorite tune.

She got so excited that she jumped over

the gate to greet me.

So maybe Bhavna got really excited

about something

and that's why she jumped over the gate.

-But what?

-And why?

And where did she go?

All very good questions.

I know the perfect person to help us.

Pinky.

Pinky knows a lot about goats.

Yeah. She knows

what kind of jewelry they like.

And their favorite napping spot.

Maybe she can help us find Bhavna.

We'll go talk to her.

I'll head to my shop

and see if Bhavna's there.

Great idea. Chalo, chalo. Let's go.

JOSHI: Good luck.

(HORN TOOTING)

Pari! Where are you?

-Pinky!

-Pinky, look up.

MIKKU: Eyes on the road, Pinky.

(ALL SCREAMING)

-(ALL COUGHING)

-I can't see.

Is everyone okay?

-Uh-huh.

-I'm okay.

Pinky, we were looking for you.

Joshi sir's goat, Bhavna, is missing.

And since you know everything about goats,

we thought you could help us find her.

I don't know how great

I am at finding goats today, Mira.

My goat, Pari, wandered off, too.

Two goats missing in one day?

Very strange.

It is strange.

Pinky, where was the last place

you saw Pari?

The garden square.

Do you remember anything

that could help us find her?

I, uh

I don't think so. Oh, I can't think, Mira.

I'm too worried.

I have an idea.

Let's go back to the spot where

you last saw Pari.

Maybe that will help you remember

what happened.

Sounds good.

(TOOTS HORN)

This was the spot.

So you came here with Pari,

and then what happened?

We decided to practice

a new dance routine.

It goes like this.

And a one, and a two, and a three,

and a four, and turn.

Someone turned on three.

Not naming names.

Uh, Pari always turns on four.

And she is very talented at

coming up with new moves.

And then?

And then you repeat

all the moves from the beginning.

One, two, three, four

Turn. (LAUGHS)

I mean, and then, what happened?

Oh! (CHUCKLES)

I heard a tune, which was super helpful

because it's a lot easier

to dance when you have music.

I turned on four,

and when I turned back on one,

Pari was gone.

Pari has never, ever wandered off

in the middle of a dance routine.

She takes dancing very seriously.

That's interesting.

Joshi sir's goat Bhavna

also did something she doesn't usually do.

She jumped over a gate.

Maybe something got their attention.

Goats are easily distracted,

but they usually come back

when you call them.

(SIGHS) Let me try again.

Pari!

-(LEAVES RUSTLING)

-Pari?

BOTH: Pinky, we goat this.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

Hey, what's the big idea?

-Sorry, Dhruv.

-We thought you were Pari.

Guys, I'm not a goat.

Dhruv, Pinky can't find her goat anywhere.

Really?

I can't find my goat, Bhanu either.

(ALL GASP)

I was looking for him in the bushes.

That's three goats

missing in a single day.

-(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS)

-(IMITATES SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Dhruv, what were you doing

when Bhanu wandered off?

I was standing by

his favorite tree in the park.

Let's go there and see what we can find.

DHRUV: Okay.

PINKY: Right behind ya.

Dhruv, walk us through everything

that happened before Bhanu wandered off.

Okay, we stopped

at this jamun tree for a snack.

I'm a big fan of jamun myself.

Good for building those mongoose muscles.

BOTH: (CHOMPING) Mmm-hmm.

He climbed up

and started chewing on the leaves

and kicked fruit down, so I picked it up.

When I looked up, he was gone.

Bhanu never races off

in the middle of snack time.

-Shocking.

-So wrong.

So Bhanu also

did something he doesn't usually do.

Just like the other two goats.

Hmm. Do you remember

anything else that could help us?

(HUMMING TUNE)

No, I don't think so.

Dhruv, what were you humming just now?

Oh, that's a tune I heard

when Bhanu was eating from the tree.

That's the tune I heard, too.

So you both heard the same tune

before your goats ran off.

Was it coming from an instrument

or someone singing?

BOTH: An instrument.

What instrument did it sound like?

-I'm not sure.

-Me neither.

I know who we can talk to.

Come on!

-Mira.

-ALL: Namaste, Joshi sir.

Did you find Bhavna?

I think we're getting closer.

-But we need your help.

-Anything.

While we were looking for Bhavna,

we discovered that Pinky

and Dhruv's goats are also missing.

Three goats missing in one day?

That's what I said.

Actually, Chikku, that's what I said.

Before their goats disappeared,

Pinky and Dhruv heard the same tune.

It sounds like this.

(BOTH VOCALIZING)

Oh. Oh, yes, yes. I know that tune.

Pinky and Dhruv said they heard the tune

being played on an instrument.

But we need your help identifying it.

Of course. Yes.

Okay. So Joshi sir is going to play

the tune you heard

on three different instruments.

When you hear the right one, let us know.

-Got it.

-Okay.

Sitar, please.

BOTH: Sitar.

(SITAR PLAYING SAME TUNE)

Was it this instrument?

-That's not it.

-Nope.

Next instrument.

Harmonium, please.

BOTH: Harmonium.

(HARMONIUM PLAYING SAME TUNE)

What about this one?

Nope.

No, that's not it either.

All right.

Bring in the bansuri, please.

BOTH: Bansuri.

(BANSURI PLAYING SAME TUNE)

That's it. That's the instrument.

-Are you sure?

-Oh, yes!

Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.

It sounded exactly like that.

Wait a second.

I heard that tune

on the bansuri earlier today, too.

Joshi sir, did you teach this tune

to any of your students who play bansuri?

I did. It's so simple,

I teach it to my youngest students.

And today I had one who just started.

I think I know what happened.

Let's think this through.

MIRA: Bhavna, Pari and Bhanu

all wandered off this morning.

And before each one did,

there was the sound of someone playing

the same tune on a bansuri.

There was only one person

playing that tune on her bansuri. Dimple.

So maybe all the goats heard

the music and followed Dimple.

But where are our goats now, Mira?

We need to go talk to Dimple.

-(BANSURI MUSIC PLAYING)

-Everybody hear that?

(GASPS) That's the tune.

And it's being played on a bansuri.

And look, our goats.

(BLEATING)

Aw. Look at them.

They look so happy.

Hi, everybody.

Look, goats, your friends are here.

-Pari. My girl.

-(BLEATING)

I'm so happy to see you.

Come here, boy. I missed you.

Bhavna! You love that tune, don't you?

(BLEATS)

Thank you, so much, Mira.

Mira is the best.

Isn't she, Pari?

(BLEATS)

It looks like the case

of the missing goats

Is closed.

(BLEATS)

Mira dear, is everything okay?

Yes, Auntie.

We were looking for

Bhavna, Pari and Bhanu.

And we figured out

that they followed you and Dimple home

from her music lesson.

My goodness!

How adorable!

They love your music, Dimple.

I love music!

(BHAVNA BLEATING)

Dimple, you are welcome

to play for Bhavna anytime.

Yay!

Hey, Chikku.

I bet if we played our instruments,

everyone will love our music, too.

Yes, and they'll want to follow us.

Were you trying to take a nap?
