[bunniefuu]

MAN: ♪ Well, it's a sunny day

♪ There's about a million things that I could do ♪

♪ Whoa, would you like to...

♪ Do them, too?

♪ Yeah...

♪ Well, it's a big wide world

[clapping to music]

♪ Let's look around

♪ What will we see?

♪ Round every corner, a discovery ♪

♪ Whoa, there's no place I'd... ♪

♪ Rather be

♪ Oh, yeah

♪ Well, it's a big wide world

♪ And it's waiting

♪ For me and you.

CUSACK: It was the end of a long and snowy winter.

Quack the duck had been very busy.

This is my favorite.

I call it... Duck at Play.

Nice!

Yes, mm-hmm.

And this one I call Duck at Rest.

I have to go now. Bye.

Whoa!

Bye.

Now, over here, you'll find my other favorite,

Duck on Alert.

Note the forward thrust of the foot,

the steely... hey.

Where'd he go?

Hmm!

CUSACK: Peep and Chirp were busy, too,

inventing games they could play in a can.

Ready?

Guess a number between one and three.

One.

Two?

Three?

Yes!

CUSACK: As games go, this one wasn't much fun.

Hey, guys, what you doing?

Not much.

Want to go build a snow duck?!

BOTH: No!

I mean, you know...

Maybe later, okay?

Sure, uh, no rush.

I can wait.

♪ Oh, it's a good time to be building ducks ♪

♪ It's better than being stuck... ♪

in a can.

[humming]

Don't worry, I can wait as long as you want.

Unless you're ready right now.

Are you ready right now?

Are you, huh, are you, huh?

Sure, Quack...

we're ready.

You know what, Quack?

I don't think there's room for another snow duck.

Trust me...

there's always room for a duck.

Hey! What's this?!

Hmm, it looks like some kind of track.

Was there a strange animal up here with you?

Uh... nope, just the beaver.

Huh.

It's not a beaver track, that's for sure.

BEAVER BOY: Hi, Sailor, I'm back!

Ahoy, Blue Sailor!

See,thoseare beaver tracks.

Whew, that was kind of steep and stuff.

Whoa!

So that's what made the track!

How did you do that?

I don't know.

I just sat down like this, and...

It's not working.

Right-- so let's get back to snow ducks.

Now, we could fit one over here, I think,

in betweenDuck at Play andDuck Interrupted.

Oh, yeah, that's the way to go.

[Quack mumbling to himself]

Hmm...

I wonder why you're not sliding.

I think you just need a push.

[grunting]

Yahoo!

ALL: Whee!

Yay!

Whoa!

[laughing]

PEEP: Quack, Quack!

That was so much fun!

You have to try it.

I don't have time.

I'm building a duck.

And I could use some help.

Come on, let's do it again!

Yeah!

CUSACK: As fun as it was to ride with Beaver Boy,

Peep and Chirp thought they'd try it on their own this time.

Ready?

One... two...

Whoa...

Go!

Our tails don't work.

CUSACK: It's true.

Bird bottoms aren't that great for sliding.

Peep and Chirp needed to find something better.

Okay, it's flat...

and smooth.

We need something flat and smooth!

Like this?

[Peep grunting]

Whoops.

What about this?!

Maybe.

Or this?

It looks more like a beaver tail.

Yeah, let's try them both.

This is so typical.

Ducks do all the work, and does anybody care?

Does anybody even notice?

BEAVER BOY: Hi, Blue Sailor.

Do you want to slide on my tail?

I beg your pardon.

We couldn't find anything for you to slide on,

but you could slide on my tail.

If I slide anywhere,

it'll be on my own behind,

thank you very much.

[quacks]

Okay.

Come on, Quack, youhaveto try this!

How can you slide

when there are ducks to be built?

I mean, come on!

If you come slide with us,

then I promise we'll help you

build another duck, okay?

Well, I don't... I... okay.

Is everybody ready?

On your mark...

get set...

Go!

[hooting and shouting]

Bye!

[hooting]

Uh-huh.

Don't forget to write.

Whee!

[others laughing]

I mean, come on!

I mean, what... what is...

This is supposed to be fun?

This isn't fun.

Building ducks is fu...

Whoa!

[yelling]

That was great!

Whoo-hoo!

Come on!

[quacking merrily]

[Peep and Chirp chuckle]

[all exclaiming]

Yippee!

This is great!

CUSACK: It was the greatest winter day of all.

Peep, Chirp and Quack discovered sledding...

and Beaver Boy discovered his inner artist.

I hate to tell you,

but that doesn't look like a duck.

I know. It's a beaver.

Yeah, but these are all ducks,

and that's not a duck.

I know.

It's a beaver.

But, well, you just can't

put a beaver in the middle of ducks!

Come on, Quack,

it's time to go home.

A beaver on top of Snow Hill?

Who ever heard of that?

Have you ever heard of that?

I've never heard of that.

It's just strange.

I'm telling you, that beaver is breaking

the duck building codes.

CUSACK: Well, I think it's very nice.

BOY: That's Isabella, me and Jesse.

We just took off this cushion

and made it like a stiff hill so this surfboard could go down.

It did it!

The surfboard... it kind of feels like it's slippery.

So it can go down like it's really in water

and going down the waves.

I'm going to try this little bird.

This bird doesn't listen.

Come on, birdie!

It just rolls down.

It cannot actually slide down the hill.

The surfboard feels smooth and the bird feels very rough.

It's like you can hear a sound coming out of the bird

when it's sliding.

[rustling]

Isabella and Jesse went to get this cardboard ramp.

And we're thinking that if we put it down

it would go really fast.

BOY: Okay, that's fast.

Look!

BOY: It slides down for once!

This new material is very flat,

so the bird can go faster than it did,

so it doesn't have to roll anymore.

All: Go!

Surfboard won!

BOY: Try making hills at home and sliding things down.

CUSACK: After a long, icy winter, spring had finally arrived.

The warm weather made everyone,

well... ducks, want to jump for joy.

QUACK: Yip-do-do!

[loud belly flop]

CUSACK: For Peep, spring meant making new friends.

Wow! I used to have one rabbit friend

and now I have...

[crowd of rabbits greeting Peep]

PEEP: ...um, lots.

CUSACK: For Chirp, the nicest thing about spring

was all the flowers in bloom.

[sniffing]

[sighs contentedly]

Then one bright blue morning, quite by accident,

Chirp discovered the best thing of all about spring.

CHIRP: Wow!

This is the most beautiful place I've ever seen.

It's like a flower shower.

[giggles]

CUSACK: Chirp couldn't wait to show Peep what she had found.

Don't look-- we're almost there.

Okay, now!

[gasps]

What did I tell you?

Isn't this the springiest thing ever?

It is.

It's amazing.

Let's keep it a secret, Peep.

If everyone knows about it,

it won't be beautiful anymore.

What about Quack?

We have to tell Quack.

Okay.

But just Quack.

Flowers? Trees? That doesn't sound springy.

I'll show you springy.

[grunts]

Whoo!

[loud belly flop]

[Peep and Chirp yell]

[Quack wincing and quacking]

[grunting and quacking]

But itisspringy, Quack.

Chirp found it, and I found it next,

and you'd be the first duck to find it.

Oh...

Oh! First duck, you say?

Tell you what, I'll go to your secret place

if you take diving lessons.

You'll be studying with a master.

What master?

Oh, boy, that's funny.

"What master?"

[chuckles, quacks]

As if you didn't know.

You're a funny bird, Chirp.

Very funny bird.

So... what do you think?

Isn't it springy?

Uh-huh, uh-huh, yeah, very pretty.

And what do you do in here?

Nothing!

We just look at it.

Well, here's something we can do.

Right-- and this!

[laughing]

Hey, and how about this?!

[shouts with glee]

[loud thump]

[wincing and quacking]

Don't tell anyone else about this place, okay?

It's a secret.

[guffaws]: Secret, eh?

Never fear-- when it comes to secrets,

you can always trust a duck.

CUSACK: That's right, you can always trust a duck,

unless that duck happens to be Quack.

[splashing]

Blue Sailor!

How are you?

I've been really busy lately.

Wow, you don't say.

Yeah, this winter I spent a lot of time in a lodge,

eating and, you know, beaver stuff-- top secret.

I have a secret, too.

Ducks have secrets?

I thought only beavers had secrets.

Are duck secrets any good?

Are you kidding?

They're the best.

You want to hear it?

Okay.

[whispering]

Wow! The springiest thing in the whole world?

Thatisa good secret.

Yeah, I know.

[yawns]

All right, that's enough excitement.

Run along now, okay?

And remember, hush-hush.

Hush-hush.

Gosh, my first duck secret.

I can't wait to tell the squirrels.

CUSACK: Beaver Boy didn't really understand about hush-hush.

[chirping and squeaking]

[peeping]

[whispering]

CUSACK: By the next afternoon,

when Peep, Chirp and Quack returned to the orchard...

[gasps in dismay]

...the secret was definitely out.

Oh, no!

CHIRP: Stop!

Stop!

Look at this mess.

You ruined spring.

[creak and crash]

Oh, boy, I don't know how this could have happened.

You were telling me about duck secrets

and I said, "Are duck secrets any good?"

And you said...

Nevertheless, as a duck, it's my duty to make things right.

Hey, I know!

Maybe now's the time for diving lessons.

Diving lessons?

You told my secret, and you think

diving lessons will make it better?

Well... yeah.

What about flower diving lessons?

Flower diving?

Oh, good one, Peep.

See, we bunch up all the flowers like this

and make it nice and soft and perfect for diving.

What do you say?

CUSACK: Chirp said... yes.

All that spring and into summer,

she stayed in the orchard and practiced diving

into flowers, into leaves and grass,

into anything that was soft.

CHIRP: Hey, look at this.

There are little green bumps where the flowers used to be.

QUACK:Uh-huh.

Back to listening to me.

You've got to stick the landing

or the judges will take points off.

[inhales deeply]

Yay, Chirp! Way to go!

[laughing]

Am I a good teacher, or what?

CUSACK: And then one day, late in the summer,

it hit her.

[thwack]

Ouch.

CUSACK: A cherry, that is.

[spits]

Hey, these must be cherry trees.

CUSACK: Isn't that great?

The flowers turned into bumps

and the bumps turned into cherries.

And in case you were thinking,

why would a bird like Chirp need diving lessons...

well, watch.

Cherry!

Mine!

I got it!

Whoa!

Ow!

[Chirp gasps]

Quack.

Yay!

Not bad.

[chewing]

A few more lessons and you'll be ready for the pond.

[Chirp and Peep giggling]

BOY: That's me and Cullen and Jesse and Jesse's dad.

We're planting some seeds.

The little seeds are tomatoes.

GIRL: And the bigger seeds are the sunflower seeds.

We'll see how they look in a few weeks.

Wow! Look how tall they are.

BOY: That's a tomato and that's a sunflower.

I think they're going to grow,

like, this high the next time we see them.

Our plants are doing really well.

GIRL: They're huge!

KIDS: Wow!

GIRL: Now we need to plant them in the ground.

My mom and I are putting them into the ground.

We'll see how they look in a few more weeks.

Whoa! Look how big these things are!

GIRL: They're humongous.

That's a sunflower?

GIRL: Look, the tomatoes even have little flowers.

I think that's going to turn into a tomato.

We'll see how they look in a few more weeks.

I think the sunflower has grown faster than the tomatoes

because it's bloomed,

but the tomatoes, they're not ripe at all.

GIRL: We'll come back in a few weeks.

GIRL: Some of them are green and some of them are red.

There's three tomatoes and we'll each get one.

It tastes very sweet.

Look what you can see here.

When we planted them, we started out with seeds just like these.

GIRL: Try planting some seeds

and see what happens when they grow.
