[ peanut yawning ]
there's never anything
to do around here.

We got to be able to come up
with something fun to do.

- Yeah ? Like what ?
- Hmm.

We could skip rocks !

Nah, we've done that.
Done that.

You want to go swimming ?
Nah, we always do that.

We need something new.
Yeah.

You want to watch clouds go by ?

- That's not new.
- Not new.

Then I give up ! Me too !

We've done everything
there is to do around here.

Yeah, and nothing exciting
ever happens.

Dull old lake hoohaw.
Dull old lake.

[ Ootsie, bootsie ]
hello, little otters !

Oodle-ay ootsie.
Oodle-ay, bootsie.

Oodle-ay.

[ Pb&j ] whoa !
[ horn blowing ]

Look, there's more !

I see you have more cool toys.

Let me guess.
It's stuff for y'all
and nobody else, right ?

No. [ Both laughing ]

It's gifts for you and everyone
on lake hoohaw.

Gifts ? For us ?
How come ?

[ Laughs ] this is just
the start.

Yeah, peanut.
Here's a bucky spacebeaver
deep-space action set for you.

Whoa ! For me ? Wow ! Cool !

And a sidewalk surfer
super skateboard for jelly !

Wow ! Thank you.

I've been wishing and wishing
for one of these. Mmm-mmm !

And a complete
super-silly sand toy set...

With the turbo-hydraulic
digger machine 5000...
For butter !

Ooh ! [ Giggling ]

[ Giggling ] thanks,
mr. Snooty.

Thanks, ootsie and bootsie.
Thank you.

Don't thank us.
Thank mr. Big dog !

Howdy, hoohaw kids.

[ Pb&j ]
thanks, mr. Big dog.

You're welcome, little otters.

But this is but the beginning
of all the great things to come.

For everyone in lake hoohaw

- How really rich ?
- Really, really, really rich.

Whoa ! That's really
a lot of "reallys."

How are we all
going to get rich ?

Go get everyone
in lake hoohaw together
for a town meeting right now.

And we'll tell you how.

[ Chattering ]

What do you think this
is all about, jelly ?
I don't know, peanut.

cheese and quackers, guys.

Something wonderful's
about to happen !

Sounds like
we're gonna get rich.

Really, really, really rich !

Here he is. Here's mr. Big dog.

[ Clears throat ]
thank you all for coming.

Edouard, please tell
these fine lake hoohaw folks
all about our brilliant plan.

My pleasure, mr. Big dog.

As you all know,
there is no better place
to be in the whole world...

Than lake hoohaw.

And with a few minor changes,
a lot more people could enjoy
it here as well.

what edouard
is trying to say is...

It's time to share
lake hoohaw with vacationers
from around the world !

- What's he talking about ?
- What's this all about ?
- What does he mean ?

Behold ! New lake hoohaw...

resort and theme park.

[ All ] ooh !

Will have

[ All ] ahhh !

And from all the money
you'll make selling your land
to my development company,

Every lake hoohaw family will
get their own fancy mansion.

[ oohs and ahhs ] [ flick ]

It is wonderful, you know.
Being rich, that is.

Wow ! This is big.

excuse me, mr. Big dog ?

This is all happening so fast.

- When do we have to
make up our minds ?
- Oh, no hurry, mr. Otter.

Take your time.
The construction crew
isn't comin' for another...

- 16 1/2 Minutes.
- 16 1/2 Minutes ?


- That's awfully soon.
- Don't take too much time
thinking about it, opal.

Opportunity like this
doesn't come along every day !

So, for the next
ten minutes or so,

I suggest everyone
go home and think...

Of all the wonderful things
you want in new lake hoohaw
resort and theme park.

And all the wonderful things
you just want !

A bowling alley ! My own
pie factory !

[ P&j ]
this is a dream come true !

[ Gleeful chatter ]

wow ! A theme park
in our own backyard !

This is totally exciting !

- It's mind-blowing !
- Yeah !

Things are really going
to be different around here.
You can say that again !

♪ Because I'm gonna be
rich, rich, rich ♪

♪ Really, really rich, rich ♪

♪ I'm gonna be rich, rich
really, really, really
rich, rich ♪♪

Yeah. We all are.

But I think we need to be
really choosy about what
we want new lake hoohaw to have.

- A skate park ?
- Yeah. Made out of wood.

- A soccer stadium ?
- Made out of wood.

- A fishing pond !
- Made out of wood !

I don't know, y'all.
We should really
think about this.

Peanut's right.
If we're gonna change
lake hoohaw,

We need
our very best ideas ever.

Sounds like it's time
for a noodle dance !

Yeah. Let's do it !

For the last time, I'll noodle,
but no way am I dancing.

peanut ? Yoo-hoo, peanut ?

i've got it ! what ?
What happened ? What ?

Oh, sorry. I got carried away.
What have you got ?

We really like
our slippery slide, right ?

Cheese and quackers, jelly.
We don't just like it,
we love it !

Well, in the new lake hoohaw,
we could have...

a gazzilion-foot-long
curlicue slide...

with an escalator
from the splashdown place back
to the starting rock.

[ Laughing ]

Great idea, jelly.
And since the slide
is going to be so big,

we can get
the cranes a new tower,
with a huge telescope...

and lots of security video
cameras and stuff.

I've been thinking,
and I have a great idea.

I think
the new lake hoohaw should
have a rocket ship launch pad...

So we can go to outer space
on our next vacation.

Wow ! Great idea, peanut !

Great ideas, everybody !
New lake hoohaw
is going to be amazing !

Come on !
Let's go tell mr. Big dog
what we thought of.

- Let's go !
- Come on, guys.
- okay.

Those are great ideas,
every last one of 'em.

Thanks, mr. Big dog
thanks.

So,
what do you say we get started
with a demo and drainin' ?

What demo ? What draining ?

Why demolition and
lake drainin', of course.

Drain the lake ?
Did I hear right ?
[ Overlapping chatter ]

Well, we got to get in here
and make room for all this
beauty and fun, right ?

I suppose so. Y-yeah.

We need a lot more land,
so we have to cut down
all those trees...

And demolish that mountain.

- [ Both ] what ?
- Yes, indeedy.

And to complete our magnificent
plan for new lake hoohaw
resort and theme park,

The old lake hoohaw
will have to be drained.

- Drained ?
- Now, don't you worry.

We're going to have
a very large birdbath
in its place.

Mr. Big dog, we need
to talk about this.

We've talked enough, son.
Now it's time for action.

Edouard, bring in
the lake drainer 2000.

Yes, sir, mr. Big dog.

[ mr. Big dog ]
it's time to say good-bye
to old lake hoohaw.

We have to stop them !
No joke, jelly.

What would lake hoohaw be
without a lake ?

Just a hoohaw ? Yeah, but think
about the theme park,

The thrill rides, the money.

What ? What ?

The lake is where
we swim and play and
where our houseboats float.

- So ?
- So when they build
the new lake hoohaw...

they'll have to tear down
oaky oak tree
and hoohaw rock...

and all the babbleberry bushes.

And that means
bye-bye, babbleberry pie.

"Bye-bye, babbleberry pie" ?

What are we waiting for ?
We got to stop this madman !

Edouard, activate
the lake drainer.

Yes, sir.
Right away, mr. Big dog.

Mr. Snooty, stop ! Please !
You can't drain the lake !

Of course, we can.
These lake draining machines
are the best money can buy.

- They can drain an ocean.
- But lake hoohaw is our home !

We wouldn't trade anything
for lake hoohaw.

don't be silly.
it's just water and dirt !

Think of all
the money you'll make,

The really, really fancy
mansion you'll live in.

He does have a point, jelly.
Flick !

I like this little duck.
Edouard, get that lake drainer
drainin' ! Now !

- Wait ! Stop !
Just give us five minutes !
- Five minutes ? For what ?

For the most important
noodle dance of our lives.

Please, mr. Snooty,
 
just five minutes ?

Well, I suppose
five minutes wouldn't hurt,
would it, sir ?

Don't go soft on me now, snooty.

"Pwease," mr. Big dog ?
"Pwease" ?

Oh, all right.
You got five minutes. Exactly !

But I don't know
what good it'll do you.

Come on, guys. Time to noodle.
Let's dance !

I say we hook the lake drainer
up to itself and boom--

it sucks itself into oblivion.

Great idea, jelly.
Or maybe we could hold...

a super-giant bake sale
to raise lots of money.

and then we could pay
the lake drainers to go away.

Or how about this ?
I douse the whole lake
with invisible spray.

then the lake drainers
won't be able to find it.

Well, y'all, I think those
are totally great ideas, but--

[ mr. Big dog ]
one minute left !
we don't have the time,

The money or the know-how
to do 'em !

Then how can
we save lake hoohaw ?

We just have to make
mr. Big dog understand
how much it means to us.

Cheese and quackers, jelly !
How are we going to do that ?

We need mr. Big dog
to see lake hoohaw
the way we see it--

As the best place
in the whole world !

Lake hoohaw is the best place
in the whole world !

It sure is. The best place !

Maybe if we show mr. Big dog
all of the wonderful things
we love about lake hoohaw--

He won't want to drain it.
It's worth a try.

Come on ! Let's get going !

We've got
some convincing to do !

Only 50 seconds left
before we drain the lake
to build the new theme park.

Okay, mr. Big dog.
We can show you in one song...

That lake hoohaw
is the best place
in the whole world.

I don't know. It's a short song.

Oh, all right. Come on,
we'll show you.

Are you gonna drain

- Not.
- [ Cheering ]

Snooty,
turn off the lake drainer
and send it away.

Yes, sir, mr. Big dog.
[ Beeps ]

Lake hoohaw is saved !
[ Cheering ]

Thank you, mr. Big dog.
Thanks a lot.

"Tankew !"
No, pb&j. Thank you.

When I looked at lake hoohaw,
I only saw what wasn't there.

You good people
made me see what is here.

The greatest place
in the world !

[ all laughing ]

Come on in ! The lake is great !

hello, lake hoohaw !
whoo whee !

[ all laughing ]

[ Opal ] the lake sure is
beautiful tonight.

It's beautiful every night.

Yeah. Sure is.
"Boo-ful."

We sure are lucky to live here.

Yeah. And I can't believe
we almost let it get turned
into something else.

Especially when
we love lake hoohaw
so much just the way it is.

That's for sure.
Hoohaw.

- What is that ?
- [ Otters gasping ]

- It's me !
- What are you still doing
here, mr. Big dog ?

- We thought
you went back to the city.
- Nope. Not yet.

I decided to stay here
a week or two longer.

After all, there's really,
really, really, really...

No other place in the world
like lake hoohaw.

- [ In unison ] really.
- You can say that again !

Hey, you kids, how about
some babbleberry pie ?

Yeah ! That would
be great !

- Babble !
- [ All laughing ]

Well, see y'all soon.
