Orange: wow, this letter is going all the way to big bitty city?

Must be pretty important.

Berry important. It's a birthday card to a friend of mine.

Oh, I hope I'm mailing it in time...

When's the birthday?

Next week.

Oh, it'll get there in plenty of time.

Jadeybug: another letter...

Postal carrier: ah-choo!

Postmaster: bless you.

Postal carrier: thank you.

(Strawberry and orange giggling)

Postal carrier: ah-choo!

I'm afraid I've come down with a case

Of bumbly-wheezy-sneezy fever.

Oh, dear, that's too bad.

Well, I think you'd better go home until you feel better.

I think that's a berry good idee...ideh...

(Trying not to sneeze)

Ah-choo!

(Sniffles) i...uh...

Ah-ah-ah...

Ah-choo!

(Bang! Wham! Thud!)

(Bell dings)

In unison: bless you.

Thank you. (Laughs)

Whoo... Ah-ah...

Quick, turn him around!

Ahhhhh... Ah-choooo!

In unison: bless you!

Postal carrier: thank you!

Oh, now how am I gonna get the mail delivered today?

Is there a problem, postmaster?

Well, the problem is, all my delivery bees are on vacation.

Which wouldn't be a problem, 'cause I still have one left.

The problem is...

Postal carrier: (far away) ah-choooo!

He's it.

Oh.

So now the only one left to get the mail delivered is me.

Oh, dear.

But even that wouldn't be a problem.

I can deliver the mail to berry bitty city myself.

But not this.

What's that?

Postmaster: special delivery for clement cricket,

Clear out in acorn acres.

Label says it's for his birthday.

When's his birthday?

Today.

Together: today?

Da! Oh, no.

Ho-ho! Here, jadeybug, let me help you.

No, no, you should be delivering the mail.

Well, I guess you're right.

Postmaster: (sighing) poor clem.

Looks like his birthday present will be late.

But, "we can only do our berry best."

Wait! What if I helped you?

Deliver this package, I mean?

Well, that's mighty kind of you, miss shortcake.

But all the way to acorn acres?

Not exactly a hop, skip and a jump, you know.

Yeah, it's across the bridge,

Way on the other side of the river.

I have a scooter, I'm sure I can get it there in time.

And I have the day off from the cafe, so I am at your service!

Ho-ho! Well, now.

That's about the nicest thing I've heard in quite a while.

Are you sure you want to give it a try?

Berry sure.

All-righty then. (Clears throat)

Raise your right hand, please.

Repeat after me. "I strawberry shortcake

I strawberry shortcake

"Through snow, rain, heat or berry gloomy night,"

Through snow, rain, heat or berry gloomy night

"Do promise to do my berry best,

To deliver the mail on time."

Do promise to do my berry best

To deliver the mail on time.

You are now an official delivery person

Of the berry bitty city post office. (Chuckles)

Strawberry, that looks great on you!

Thanks, orange!

Postmaster: thank you, strawberry.


This means a lot to me and the post office

And, I expect, to mr. Cricket.

Jadeybug will stamp the package and get you on your way.

Okay jadeybug?

Da!

Postmaster: here, let me--

No, no, you should be delivering the mail.

Well, I guess you're right.

Here, I can help.

Why, thank you, miss shortcake.

Plum: anybody home?

Right there, plum...

Well! If you can stamp this package, I'll be on my way.

Oh! (Laughs) right!

Stamps, stamps, stamps...

(Ding)

Oh!

Ha, ha! That was me.

Stamps, stamps, stamps...

Ah-ha!

There!

"Do not open 'til christmas?"

Oh, absolutely!

(Whispering) it'd be cheating!

Huh?

But it's his birthday.

Oops.

Strawberry(reading) "fragile"? "This end up"?

"Return to sender"?

Oh! "Special delivery."

Wait, how about a nice "don't drop this package!"

Oh! Oh! Here's a "sorry, doesn't live here anymore!"

I've been looking for that one for months.

Strawberry: no, thank you.

Well! Congratulations to our new postal carrier!

Orange told me all about it.

Hi plum!

Love the hat! Do you get to keep it?

No, just helping out for the day.

(Pupcake barking)

Hiya, pupcake! Take good care of this package, okay?

It's got to go all the way to acorn acres.

(Barking)

Acorn acres? Way out there? Can you make it in one day?

Oh, it's still morning. Plenty of time.

Wait, who's taking care of your café?

Mr. Longface! He's teaching a cake decorating class!

Psst! Strawberry!

Lemon? What is it?

I've got a problem!

Pupcake, you better wait here.

Take care of the package, okay?

(Hair dryer humming)

Lemon? Are you okay?

Uh...sure! Sure!

What is it? Something's wrong, isn't it?

Here. There's a great article on two-toned toe nail polish.

I would like to see how my hair looks.

Hold on.

I used a new hair mousse, and it's not exactly working out.

I'm scared she's gonna-- (gasps) oh!

I don't wanna think what she'll do when she sees...

It's too terrible to--

Let me see.

Okay, but please keep your cool.

As always.

Yeah. Okay, come on.

Oh, it's coming along nicely. (Nervous gulp)

Wow. That's a... A hair style alright.

Now can i--

Not yet.

Lemon, I've got to deliver a package for the postmaster.

I'd love to stay, but...

Oh, n-n-n-no! You can't leave me.

Please, strawberry. Please think of something.

I don't know what to do.

I'd like to keep blueberry as my friend,

But when she finds out, she's gonna...oh!

And then she'll...ahh! Ouch!

(Sighing) okay, where's the bottle?

Hmm. You know, I had a cake recipe that kept coming out

Just like that...too hard, so I added pudding to the mix.

Pudding.

Try washing her hair with some vanilla pudding.

Then rinse it, then add stay-in conditioner with a little um...

Avocado oil. That should smooth it all down.

Hmm. You think?

Worth a try. And don't worry. Blueberry always comes around.

(Sigh) thanks, strawberry. You calmed me down.

I was just so flustered, I couldn't think.

You're berry welcome.

(Phone ringing)

Jadeybug: berry bitty city post office,

"We do the berry best we can," jadeybug speaking...

Jadeybug: (gasps) oh, no! Yes sir, I'll tell her right away!

Has strawberry gone yet?

Yeah. Uh, why?

The postmaster just heard that

The storm we had the other night,

It blocked the road to acorn acres!


She won't be able to get through!

(Gasp) oh, no!

Strawberry?

Orange(yelling) strawberry, come back!

(Gasp) oh... Now what'll I do?

(Pupcake growling)

(Barking)

(Chuckles) berry good, pupcake.

But even if we could clear the road, it'd take us too long.

(Questioning bark)

(Sighs) I think the only thing to do is keep going,

Without the scooter.

(Pupcake growling and barking)

(Pupcake barking happily)

(Pupcake whining)

There you go.

I wonder how far we have to go...

Oh, look, pupcake! That's the way to oaktree meadows.

The road to rosevale.

Brookville.

Um...and that must be the way to acorn acres!

(Wind blowing, signs creaking)

Great.

(Pupcake whines)

(Sigh) now which way should I go?

I keep telling 'em they should fix this thing,

But do they listen?

Because you didn't ask nice.

What do you know about nice?

Uh, nice is my middle name?

Uh, no it isn't.

(Sisters arguing) uh, excuse...me.

Okay...what is my middle name then?

Ladybird, your name's sadiebug ladybird fairybeetle.

(Gasp) how did you know that?

Um, girls?

'Cause, maybe I've known you all your life

And I'm your twin sister.

My luck. If someone had asked me,

I would've picked a different twin sister.

Me too. Or, or, or I'd pick triplets...

But none of 'em would've been you.

(Gasps)

Strawberry: uh...hello?

Well, don't just stand there

We need your help!

You certainly aren't talking to me, are you?

We most very certainly are.

Certainly for certain.

Oh. Well, what can I help you with?

Can't you see?

Sorry. But um... You're gonna have to tell me.

Let's make her guess.

Silly! Stop fooling around. This is serious.

Well I have a serious, uh, thing too and...

Oh...can you tell me how to get to acorn acres...

Sadiebug(upset) we've lost our picnic.

What?

(Crying)

It grew away from us.

Grew... Uh, away?

And we're really hungry!

(Crying) I'm hungrier.

I said it first.

Doesn't mean you were hungrier first.

Girls! Please. Please explain.

How did your picnic "grow" away?

Well we were looking for a place to have our picnic

And I had some great ideas, but she wouldn't listen.

Kadiebug: 'cause my ideas were best...

And while you were, uh...discussing,

The flower grew up where you left your picnic things?

And now our picnic is up there.

And we're down here.

And I'm hungry.

I'm hungrier.

I am.

Come on. We better get your things

Before they grow away any further.

No way!

You're gonna help us?

Of course. But, we need to be quick.

That is so nice of you.

(Pupcake barking)

Almost there. Steady. Steady. Now lower.

Watch out, pupcake!

(Yelp)

(Sigh) there. Oh!

Hey, that's mine.

Nuh-uh, I made it.

You made it for me.


Okay, then what did you make for me?

Don't spill that!

(Straining) I can't open this.

Give it to me then.

With your shaky hands? (Chuckles) I think not.

(Strawberry sighs) come on, pupcake.

I guess the only thing we can do is try one of these roads.

Sadiebug: where are you going?

Yeah! Don't you want to join us?

It's a picnic for two, but you could share some of hers.

Thank you, but I have to deliver a package to clem cricket.

If only I knew how to get there.

Kadiebug: oh right! It's his birthday.

Yup. Too bad he didn't have a party.

Maybe he didn't invite us.

Why would someone not invite me?

How did you know it was his birthday?

He's a friend of ours.

Yup! Lives right up the road, right up there.

This road?

Uh, no, that one.

That one.

That way, to the river.

Oh yeah, you're right.

I am?

Yup, just follow it to the river, go across the bridge,

Over the next hill and you'll be right there!

Oh! Thank you!

Any time.

Sure thing.

Hear that, pupcake?

(Questioning whine)

(Gasp) it sounds like a river!

Look, pupcake! The bridge! Come on!

On the other side is acorn acres!

We're almost there! Oh, we're going to make it in time!

Whoa!

(Worried yelp)

Here, pupcake... Pull it up.

(Growling)

That was close.

(Worried whine)

(Cracking)

Look out!

(Crash)

(Splash)

Oh! No way are we getting across.

(Sad whine)

(Pupcake panting)

(Engine running)

Hi, strawberry! How did your delivery go in acorn...acres?

I couldn't get there.

The road was blocked. The bridge was out.

Oh, strawberry...

Listen, I have to go tell the postmaster what happened.

Okay. Is there anything I can do to help?

I wish there was, I just... Don't know what it would be.

Hey, your hair looks really nice.

Your idea really worked. Thank you.

And the avocado oil? My hair's never been so shiny! I love it.

I'm glad.

(Engine running)

Hmm...

Oh, what a day! But everything got delivered.

Strawberry: I'm sorry to say, not everything.

I'm very sorry. I tried. I got as far as the bridge,

But, it was out.

I'd heard about it after you'd gone.

Too late to stop you, I'm afraid.

It's quite a thing you did getting that far.

But I didn't deliver the package.

The mail didn't get through. And I promised it would!

Actually, you promised to do the berry best that you could.

And you did that.

You see, there are times when things happen

That are out of our control.

The only thing we can do is the best we can.

I'll call the post office in big bitty city.

See if we can bring in some help.

Maybe take the back road through oaktree meadows,

And get to acorn acres that way.

Will they get here in time?

Well...we can only do our berry best.

I just wish I could have delivered it.

Maybe you still can, strawberry.

(People chattering)

Strawberry: what's all this?

I, um...sort of spread the word that you needed help.

You always help us when we need it.

So we decided to help you!

Here in berry bitty city,

We always try to help each other get the job done.

We all put our heads together

And came up with an idea to help you deliver the package.

Oh, thank you everyone. What idea?

(Pupcake barking)

Pupcake? Pupcake, where are you?

(Clears throat)

Huh?

(Pupcake barking)


Blueberry: what do you think? Do you need a bridge now?

I think this is perfect! Thank you, everybody!

Um, miss shortcake?

Oh! (Giggles)

Ready! (Laughing)

Hang on, pupcake!

(Pupcake barking)
