The Tale of Two Enemies.

[Man pants] Stop there, you wee thieves!

Those are my carrots!

[dramatic music playing]

[Man] Come back here, rabbits!

[Rabbits panting]

[grunting]

-Whoa!
-Aah!

-[Cat hisses]
-Whoa!

[grunts]

[Lily] Peter!

-[grunting]
-[Cat meows]

[panting]

OK, I think we're safe.

-I beg to differ.
-[gasps]

Ah!

Tonight I shall feast on wild
rabbit with garlic potatoes and...

Carrots?

What a splendid... idea.

[both grunt]

-[dramatic music playing]
-[panting]

Alright. Now we're safe.

[sighs]

-[grunting]
-Aah!

I've got to stop saying that.

How many times have I told you?
Never ever wake me up!

[all] Aah!

-[grunting]
-[panting]

What a day!

Keep still, please, Benjamin.

Is it just me or are you tired
of being chased around all the time?

That's just the way nature works.

It's called the 'food chain'.

Bad-tempered badgers like Tommy Brock,

and frightening foxes
like Mr Tod both chase rabbits.

And rabbits chase...

Uh... [crunch]

-Radishes?
-Exactly!

Benjamin!

[sighs] It's the way the woods work.

Big things chase little things, see?
You can't change it.

If there's one word I don't like,
it's 'can't'.

I've got an idea.

But it'll take some work.

Um, I've just eaten so...

Follow me! Whoo-hoo!

-Come on!
-Whoa!

-[Benjamin] Whoa...
-Whoo-hoo!

[all yell]

♪ I love worms they're so squiggly ♪

♪ I love worms... ♪

He's not much of a singer, is he?

♪ In my tummy ♪

Peter, if you'd just tell us
what we're doing here...

-Ready?
-Of course I'm ready.

Uh, what am I doing again?

Throw it!

Who's there? Huh!

-[Peter grunts]
-Huh?

-What are you doing?
-Leaving a trail for Tommy Brock.

And why exactly are we stealing
Tommy Brock's worms?

To make him stop chasing us.

But if we steal his worms,
of course he's going to chase us.

Not if he thinks someone else stole
them. And that someone is... him.

Ah, yes, I see. [giggles] Very good.

Ha-ha-ha, yes,
that's, um, really clever, Peter.

You don't get the plan at all, do you?

No.

Tommy Brock will be so busy
chasing Mr Tod,

because he'll think Mr Tod took
his worms, that he won't chase us.

That really is clever.
The woods will be safe to play in!

Well, then, what are we waiting for?
Let's hop to it!

[purposeful music playing]

Mr Tod's cane!
This is even better.

Lily, have you got any elastic
in your pocket?

A magnifying glass,
a pencil, button collection...

So that's where it went!

Ah-ha, elastic!
'Just in case' pocket, just in case.

Perfect! Come on, follow me.

-What's he up to now?
-Haven't a clue.

There's one of my worms!

Oh, a-and there's another one.

Here, hold tight. Just wait
until you see Mr Tod's cane fly.

Left a bit, right a bit and... fire!

Yes! Right into Tommy Brock's sack.

Why do we want Mr Tod to think
that Tommy Brock stole his cane?

Because what better way to get
our enemies to stop bothering us

than give them new enemies, each other.

Great thinking, Peter!

And there's another one of my worms...
and another...

-Oh!
-Oi!

Watch where you're...

Oh, my bucket!

You stole it! And my worms!

I most certainly did not!

[gasps] But you stole my cane.

-You thief!
-Liar!

I will not let some blundering badger

stand here and accuse me
of petty theft. On guard, sir!

Oh, you want a fight?
Well, I'll give you a fight, fox!

-[screams]
-Come back!

Ooh! Stay away from me,
you nasty badger!

-It worked!
-[all laugh]

With those two chasing each other,
they won't chase us.

We're finally safe.
The food chain is broken.

I thank you.

[gasping, panting]

Come back here, you thieving fox.

May I suggest we resume this chase
after we've both had some sleep?

Yeah. Good idea.
Same time, same place tomorrow, huh?

Agreed.

[Badger growls]

Wait, what's that?

Eh? That's my back, isn't it?

Not your back, you lumbering oaf!
This here, look!

Blue thread.
Who do we know who wears blue?

Uh...

[groans] Who would want to keep
us so busy chasing each other,

that we wouldn't chase him?

[both] Peter Rabbit.

[sighs] Isn't this a great day, Lily?
Not a care in the world.

Oh, really?

Aah!

[dramatic music playing]

-Oh!
-[Badger laughs]

[Peter whimpers]

[growls]

[grunts]

-[Peter] Help!
-Peter?

[dramatic music playing]

Uh, Peter?

Oh, I do so love a good barbecue.

Me too. Oh, I know a really good
blackberry bush for dessert.

If I can, ah, just show you...

[Badger] Keep still!

-No more tricks today, Peter.
-[Peter groans]

Now, how do you like your rabbit,
Mr Brock, roasted, fried?

-I'm more of a worms bloke myself.
-[Peter grunts]

Worms? Ugh, so uncivilised.

Maybe you should leave
the cooking to me.

Just hold on to that wriggling rabbit.

He is our main course, after all.
[laughs]

Come on, you two. I need your help.

This is bad. Really, really bad.
We've got to help him.

Yeah, but remember the food chain,
Benjamin.

We're far too small
to take on those two.

We'd need someone much bigger.
Someone like... Mr McGregor!

M-M-McGregor?

How are you going to get
M-M-McGregor?

Come on!

But how do we get Mr McGregor
to chase Mr Tod and Tommy Brock?

[gasps] There!

Huh? Wha...?

What do we want his boots for?

No, Mr Brock, we shall not 'chuck
a few worms in' to spice it up!

You haven't even tried one!

-Come on, you two, hurry!
-[Mr Tod] No!

No worms!

No worms, no deal!

Hey, hey, hey. I've got an idea,
why don't we all go home,

sleep on it and then we can
cook me tomorrow? Agreed?

-Agreed.
-Agreed.

What? Think I'm dumb, do you, rabbit?

Ah... Well...

Dinnertime.

You don't really want to eat me,
do you?

Young rabbits are very chewy,
you know.

[Peter grunts]

[gasps] What's that?

[thudding]

[whimpers]
I'd know that sound anywhere. It's...

[gasps] Mr McGregor!

Run!

I don't believe it. Is this
another one of your tricks, eh?

[Benjamin] If there's one thing
I hate more than rabbits,

it's smelly badgers like you!

Ah! [whimpers]

[gasps]

[laughs] Not bad, huh?

Phew!

[As Mr McGregor] If there's
one thing I hate more than rabbits,

it's smelly badgers like you!

[all laugh]

I never thought I'd be so happy
to see McGregor's boots.

[all laugh]

Just like I told you,
that's the food chain.

Big things chase little things.
Always the way.

Help! It's after me!

-Whoa!
-[both laugh]

Well, nearly always.
