[ Clucking ]

Cat: boo!

[ Quacking ]

All: whoa!

[ Laughing ]

[ Insects chirping ]

[ Hooting ]

[ Clucking ]

Whew!

[ Grunting ]

[ Grunting ]

[ Both grunting ]

[ Hawk screeching ]

Do you like my clouds?

Perfect.

Duck:hello!

We got the corn plants.

Oh...

They do look wilted.

Pitiful.

They need water.

I wish it would rain.

We all wish it would rain.

That's why we're doing the rain dance play.

Let's try the dance one more time. Everybody...

[ To tune of "twinkle, twinkle, little star" ]

♪ Little clouds up in the sky

♪ Gather 'round, don't pass us by ♪

♪ You can give us nice, cool rain ♪

♪ To make our corn plants... Huh?

♪ Grow again...

[ All grunting ]

That wasn't part of the dance.

Cat: here's the water.

Do I stand right here?

Emily: no, no, cat.

You're backstage, with the bucket on the ladder.

Backstage?

I do my line from backstage?

No one will see me.

Oh, stop complaining.

You've got the most important line

In the whole play.

Do you remember it?

How could I forget?

It's only one line.

One word.

Emily: let's practice.

Little bear, start with "dear clouds."

Okay. I say, "dear clouds

What can we do to please you?"

And we say

"What can we do?!

What can we do?!"

Good.

And what do you say, cat?

"Dance."

One word-- "dance."

Excellent.

And then we do our rain dance.

And finally, at the end of the dance...

Cat?

I finally appear at the end of the dance.

I dump the bucket.

And we pretend it's rain.

And we pretend it's rain.[ Hoots ]

[ Clanging ]

[ Chattering ]

[ Clanging continues ]

[ Chattering ]

[ Murmuring ]

Little bear: okay?

[ Clears throat ]

[ Applauding and cheering ]

[ Sighing ]

Are you sad, princess satiwah?

I am sad, brave one.

The corn plants are wilted.

The poor things need water.

They can't live without water.

Without water...

They will die, die, die!

But look at the sky.

[ Audience chuckling ]

Father bear: look at cat.

Psst. Cat, not yet.

[ Chuckling ]

Oh, great clouds in the sky

We need your rain!

Please, send the rain!

Send lightning.

Lightning!

Send thunder.

Thunder!thunder!

[ Clanging ]

Stop! Stop! Enough!

[ Laughing ]

Little bear: great clouds!

We send our arrows to the great clouds

To bring the rain.

[ Softly ]: get your arrows.

[ Whispering ]: what?

The arrows.

Oh, the arrows!

[ Audience laughing ]

[ Giggling ]: arrows for rain!

All: arrows for rain!

[ Meowing ]

Hey!

Watch it!

Sorry, great cloud.

[ Audience laughing ]

Our hopes are for princess satiwah.

She worries about the corn.

Corn is food for us all.

Corn is food for us all!

We'd be so thankful for the rain if you have some to spare.

If you have some to spare!

Little bear: dear clouds

What can we do to please you?

What can we do?!

What can we do to please you?

[ Softly ]: cat, it's you're one big line.

What can we do?

Cat: somersaults!

Hey![ Grumbling ]

Cat: backflips!

Backflips?

Stand on your heads!

Hen: oh, cat

Cut it out.

[ Softly ]: your supposed to say "dance!"

It's a rain dance play.

He's supposed to say "dance."

[ Laughing ]

Did someone say "dance"?

You want to dance?

So, dance.

Get down from there, silly.

Emily: never mind.

Let's dance.

In buckets.

Okay. Okay.

[ Thundering ]

Wow, cat!

That was a big bucket!

No, wait. It's raining.

It's really raining.

It's raining.

It's pouring.

All: ♪ the old bear is snoring

♪ And he wouldn't get up in the morning. ♪

Bravo! Bravo!encore! Encore!

Bravo!

Bravo!

Encore!

Bravo!

Little bear

Do you think we really made it rain?

I don't know.

Wa-hah!

[ Meowing ]

But I know I'm getting soaked.

[ Hooting ]

Well, I never.

[ Clucking ]

[ Little bear laughing ]

[ Splashing ]

Little bear: so, how many apples are there?

Wait. I'm the teacher. Remember?

So, how many apples are there?

One... Two...

Two.

Very good.

And how many lemons?

Um...

One.

Then, how many fruits are there all together?

Um...

Three!

Very good, little bear.

You, too, lucy.

Mother bear: children!

Who'd like cake?

We can't. We're in school.

We have snacks in school.

You do?

Mm-hmm.

[ Humming ]

Mmm.

Are you excited

About going back to school, emily?

I am very excited.

Thank you.

Lemonade, little bear?

No. Thanks.

You love lemonade.

What's the matter?

Lemonade is for summer

And summer's over.

This is the last lemonade we'll ever have.

Oh, little bear...

It's true.

Summer's over.

Emily's leaving and

Tomorrow it'll rain all day.

It won't rain.

[ Sighing ]

Let it rain.

What does it matter?

Come on.

Hmm.

[ Thunder rumbling ]

I wish I could stay

But I have to go home for the school year.

Why?

Everybody has to.

But we can play school here.

This is real school.

It's fun.

We learn to read, write

And learn all kinds of things.

I'll be back next summer.

That's a long time away.

Mother bear: it's not so long.

You'll see.

Emily will come back

With lots of stories to tell about school.

And lucy will, too.

[ Train chiming ]will lucy go to school, too?

Emily: of course.

[ Door opens ]

[ Wind blowing ]brrr!

There's a storm coming in.

Little bear: you see?

I knew it would rain.

I'd better see emily home before it starts.

Not yet.

Just a little longer, father bear?

Let's spin.

[ Laughing ]

Little bear

We don't want to get caught in the rain.

You know how lucy doesn't like to get wet.

Lucy's going to miss you.

Lucy, say good-bye to little bear.

Good-bye, lucy.

[ Train chiming ]

You know, lucy doesn't really want to leave.

Can she stay with you?

With me?

Mm-hmm.

You'll give lucy to me?

[ Sadly ]: mm-hmm.

Oops, I forgot...

Lucy has to go to school.

To school. Of course.

This is for you, little bear.

It's a pen.

For me?

Really?

I want you to have it.

Thank you, emily.

Wait.

This is for you.

You can sail it in your bathtub.

Thank you. I love it.

I'll see you next summer.

Mm-hmm.

Good-bye, little bear.

Little bear, would you like

To come along with us?

No.

Can you make us some hot chocolate, mother bear?

This is a nice pen

Emily gave you, little bear.

It's very nice... Like emily.

May I try it?

I guess.

It writes beautifully.

It certainly does.

Can I try?

What's that?

A circle.

It's also

The letter "o."

It is?

Do you know what we can do with this pen?

We can learn the alphabet.

We can?

Just like emily learns in school.

It takes practice.

I can practice.

Then one day you'll be able

To write a letter to emily

With your fine new pen.

I will? Really?

When?

Let's see...

"A."

"B."

"C."

"A."

"B."

"C." Oops.

[ Chuckling ]

Very good, little bear.

Cat...

Hen...

Snow.

"Dear emily."

"It's snowing.

"I love the snow.

"I wish I could send you some.

"Owl, duck and hen send their love.

"So do the ducklings.

"I can't wait for the summer to come.

Your friend, little bear."

[ Blows ]

Hi, duck.

Hello, little bear.

Where are you going?

You know...

I don't know. I just feel

Like I really need to go somewhere.

[ Sighs ]: oh. Okay.

[ Yawns ]

Ah...

Mmm...

[ Wind blowing ]

Little bear.

Where are you going?

I don't know.

Can I come?

Sure.

What's the matter?

Not a thing.

Can I come?

Come on.

Oh.

My goodness.

What?

[ Hooting ]

What is it?

I don't know

But it must be important.

It must be.

Oh, my.

Oof.

[ Grunts and groans ]

Uh...

Animals: wow.

Oh.

Interesting.

Look at the pumpkins.

They're huge.

There's so many.

Where did they come from?

I don't know, but who cares?

Yay!

[ Laughing ]

[ Purring ]

[ Clucking ]

[ Hoots ]

Quack.

Whoo-whoo!

[ Purring ]

[ Laughing ]

Whee!

Whoa-oa...

That was great.

I wish emily was here.

But I am here.

Hi, little bear.

I thought you went back to school.

I'm visiting for the weekend.

What are you doing?

I'm raking leaves and then jumping in them.

That looks like fun.

[ Laughing ]

Nice, huh?

Mm-hmm.

I love fall.

Me, too.

[ Quacking ]

Hey, duck!

Where are you going now?

I don't know!

I just feel like I really need

To go someplace warm.

Have a nice trip!

Can you stay?

And then we'll have fun in the wintertime, too.

Is it winter already?

Whoa!

Whoa!

Both: whee...!

[ Laughing ]

Emily, we never got

To play in the winter before.

I know, it's great.

[ Both laughing ]

Whoa!

[ Metallic jingling ]

What's that?

Moose.

Hi, there, little ones.

Whee...

Awk...

Mmm...

[ Meows ]

Whee.

[ Quacking ]

I'm dizzy.

It's spring.

Look.

Come on.

Would you like a wild plum?

Yes, please.

I'd like many.

I wish I had a basket.

Here's a basket.

[ Purring ]

Hello, cat.

I'm hungry.

Me, too.

I never had a wild plum before.

Oh, yum.

They come in the spring.

By summer they're gone.

Mmm. These are delicious.

They'll be gone before lunch.

What a wonderful day this has been.

A wonderful year.

No wonder I'm tired.

Me, too. Me, too.

[ Yawning ]: I might take a little rest.

Good idea.

A little nap.

A little rest--

But not a nap.

I don't want to fall asleep.

I want to stay awake until summertime comes.

Until summertime comes?

Yes, when school's over and emily comes back.

But I'm already here.

Emily always comes back in the summer.

Little bear!

Emily will be here.

Little bear!

She'll be here.

Wake up, sleepyhead.

I'm already here.

You're here?

Of course I'm here.

You were taking a nap

So I raked the leaves.

The leaves?

In the summer?

No, silly, it's fall.

Fall?

Hmm. I must have slept for a year.

Did you dream?

Yes, and you were in it.

I was glad you were here.

I'm glad I'm here.

Me, too.

Duck?

I thought you were going someplace warm.

It was too far.

Oh.
