"The Tale of Jeremy Fisher's Recital."

[panting]

[sniffs]

[gasps] Oh!

Oh, hello, Mom.

You can run, but you can't hide, Peter!

Hide? I wasn't trying
to hide from you, Mom.

You were trying to avoid
Mr. Jeremy Fisher's musical recital.

Now I know you'd rather play
in the woods all day, but--

[muttering] I'd rather do anything
than go to that recital.

What was that?

I, uh, said, Mr. Fisher's recital?
Is that today? Let's go!

Oh, Mom, I... Uh... I heard that
Mr. Fisher lost his voice!

Can't sing a note. Oh, well!

Huh?

Well, I spoke to him this morning, Peter,
and his voice was fine.

Come on, this way.

Oh, um, maybe it wasn't his voice
I heard about, maybe it was, uh...

Flies! Yes, flies!

Flies have taken over the lake,
very bitey, we probably shouldn't go.

And Jeremy Fisher was just telling me
how few flies there are this year.

Now, stop all this fibbing and hurry up.

All our friends are going,
and I don't want to be late. Hop to it!

[Peter sighs]

[Mr. Bouncer] I know, doesn't it
look beautiful? Absolutely beautiful.

[quacks] Oh, my, someone's taken my chair!

[chuckles] Oh, dear!

This is going to be so much fun!

At least you're here, too.

I didn't really want to come.

But Mom and Dad told me no strawberry
picking until after the recital.

I couldn't wait to come. Have you seen
the cakes we get to eat afterwards? Mmm!

[gasps] Moozik! Yay!

Peter, turn around, it's starting.

[plays fanfare]

[strumming]

I'd like to welcome you all to my recital.

A great poet once said, "If music be
the food of love, play on."

[chuckles] So let's get on with it,
shall we?

[clears his throat]

Ribbit.

[singing] ♪ I'll tell you all a story
If you wish ♪

♪ About a lonely old frog
Who fell in love with a fish ♪

♪ The fish was silver
The frog was green ♪

♪ But he was her king
And she was his queen ♪

[audience cheering and whooping]

[tune playing]

[grunts in frustration]

Oh! What a horrible racket! [gasps]

Knock me sideways and call me a river rat,
look at all that lovely cake!

[all cheering] Yes! Bravo!

♪ They fell in love
Under the sky so blue ♪

[snoring]

Huh?

♪ A frog and a fish
In a pond built for two ♪

-[gasps]
-[snickering]

Mom! Sammy Whiskers is trying to
steal the cakes.

Peter, I told you, no more fibs.

-But, he--
-[shushes]

No talking during the performance.

[both gasp]

[sniffs]

What are we gonna do?

Let's hop to it!

-[all cheering]
-[Mr. Bouncer] Bravo! Well done!

Thank you, friends, thank you.

And now for my next piece,
let's rock out, shall we?

[strums rock tune]

[snickers]

-[Lily clears throat]
-What?

Those cakes are for after
the recital, Sammy Whiskers.

Oh, buzz off!

Hey! What's the big idea?

[sniffs] Mmm... Wow...

-Benjamin!
-Huh? Oh, yeah, right.

[Sammy] Oh, come on!

Just a bite,
I haven't eaten since breakfast!

Uh-uh. No way!

[snickers] You just try and stop me.

Oh, ow!

You'll be sorry! [muttering] Rabbits...

Peter, what are you doing over here?

Uh, it was Sammy Whiskers!

We stopped him from stealing the cakes.
Look! Oh.

Oh, really? Well, I don't see any rats,
I only see three mischievous rabbits

who should be in their seats!

[sighs]

Do-gooding rabbits, making an
honest thief go hungry. What? Oh! Hey!

[gasps and grunts] What do you think
you're doing, Mr. Tod?

Nothing much, Mr. Whiskers,
just out for a spot of lunch.

I was hoping for rabbit.

But perhaps a well-fed rat would
make an easier meal today. [laughs]

Hoping for rabbits, were you?

I know where you can bag
a whole bunch of them, easy as pie!

You'd better not
be telling me fibs, Whiskers.

No. I'm telling you, all the rabbits
you could ever want,

right out in the open, they are!

Well, then, what are you waiting
for, dear fellow? Lead the way!

[fiddle playing]

[Sammy snickers]

[Mr. Tod chuckles]

Oh, very good, Mr. Whiskers!
Very good indeed.

A veritable feast just waiting
to be gobbled up,

rabbit for me, and cake for you!

[snickers] Music to my ears, Mr. Tod.

-[rustling]
-[soft humming]

[gasps]

Mom! I think I saw Mr. Tod's tail
in the reeds!

For the last time, Peter,
stop telling fibs.

-But I'm not! I--
-Shh!

No talking during the performance!

-[music ends]
-[applause]

[music playing]

And now, for my grand finale,

a selection from my days
as a ballet dancer.

Always had good legs,
you know. [chuckles]

♪ Tra la la la la lala la... ♪

Hey, listen, I think I saw
something in the reeds.

What?

Just keep your eyes peeled
for that sneaky--

-Fox!
-Oh, no!

Exactly. How did you know I was
going to say--

[all] Fox!

So, what's good to eat around here?

Run for the trees!

[panicked screaming]

[humming]

Oh, my! Is this part of the show?

No, dear, it's not! Oh...

-[quacks]
-[grunts]

[laughs] This is the funniest
thing I've seen in ages.

[Flopsy] I'm too young to be eaten, Mopsy!

Everyone, back to the woods!
Come on, girls!

[Mrs. Rabbit] Peter!

Whoa! Nice move, Mom!

Take that!

[gasps]

-Hyah!
-Ah!

-Peter, hurry!
-Let's go, Benjamin!

You too, Lily! Fast!

Pluck my spines, the nerve of that fox!

I doubt he was even invited!

-[Mr. Bouncer] Come along!
-[Mrs. Bobtail] Come on now.

[groans] No, no, no. Everyone's escaped!

[Sammy munching]

Not quite everyone.

[Jeremy scatting]

As it happens, I do have
a delicious recipe for frog's legs.

Mr. Fisher's in trouble!

[Jeremy continues scatting]

Hungry foxes eat frogs.
I know that for a fact.

Rabbits are brave, rabbits are brave.

[Jeremy] What? Help!

What?

Back off, Mr. Tod!

[laughs] This show just gets
better and better!

Peter Rabbit, always playing the hero.

Sadly, it looks like
this will be your last performance.

[snarls]

[Lily] Hurry, Peter!

[rabbits grunting]

[muffled] Help!

He's stuck.

What are we going to do, Peter?

We can't fight Mr. Tod off forever!

A good rabbit never gives up!

[growls] Peter Rabbit!

-[rabbits whooping]

Ah. [chuckles nervously] Yes, well! Um!

[Sammy screams]

Suit is ruined!

[Sammy screaming]

[both grunt]

You! This is all your fault!
You sniveling rodent!

Now, take it easy, Mr. Tod.

Help!

[all laughing]

[Mr. Bouncer] What a relief!

[all cheering]

[gasps] Oh! I knew I was good, but this...
this is too kind! Thank you!

Ribbit! Well, perhaps just
one more number then?

[Jeremy sings indistinctly]

I'm sorry, Peter, I should have believed
you about Mr. Whiskers and Mr. Tod.

No, I'm sorry, Mom. I shouldn't have
made stuff up in the first place.

Oh, Peter. [laughs]

[shushes] Please, Mrs. Rabbit,
no talking during the performance!
