Oh, I do hope
friend Rabbit is home.

Hello, Rabbit.

Rabbit, is everything
all right in there?

Oh, it's Pooh.
No, no, no, no.

Not again today.

Ooh! This time
he shall not pass.

Oh, thank you, Pooh Bear.

Pooh Bear!

Uh, uh, how did you get in here?

The back door was open.

The back door.

I was just passing by,
and I thought,

if it were not too much trouble,

- might I...
- Borrow a small smackerel of honey?

Why, yes.

You see, I seem to be all out.

But you've borrowed my honey
for eight straight days, Pooh Bear,

and, uh...

Besides,
I'm just all out of honey at this moment.

Why, Rabbit, there's some honey.

- Where?
- Here.

It must have been hiding
back here behind your back.

Lucky I dropped in to
find it for you, Rabbit.

Now, if you please,
just a small smackerel?

Ahh. Oh, all right.

I did mean just a little
larger small smackerel.

I was afraid of that.

Why, thank you, Rabbit.

Yeah, don't mention it.

Oh, this is too much.

Hello.

Oh. Eeyore.
Whew.

It's only you.

Sorry to disappoint ya.

Guess I'm too dull to be around.

Can't blame ya for movin' away.

No, no, no, no, no, Eeyore.

It's not you.

I'm not really moving at all.

Just pretending to.

That way, when Pooh comes
looking for honey again,

he'll think I'm gone.

Why'd you want to do that?

Because that bear has eaten
me out of house and honey.

It's him.
It's him!

I gotta hide.
Gotta hide.

Hello, Eeyore.

Hello, Pooh.

Oh, bother.
Empty again.

Time for a visit to
my good friend Rabbit.

My good friend Rabbit
is moving away?

Yep. Said he's been
eaten out of house and honey.

House and honey?

Oh, my.

Well, this is terrible.

My good friend Rabbit's
run out of honey and...

He's worried I won't
come visit him anymore.

- He is?
- Yes.

Oh,
my. I must get poor Rabbit some more honey,

and... and then
he won't have to move away.

Oh, this is "ridickerous."

But Tigger,
we don't want Rabbit to move away.

Besides,
you shall be a perfect bee.

You've got
the stripes for it. See?

Say, buddy bear, you're right!

But, uh, wha...
what do I have to do, Pooh?

Oh, just act like
a flower, Piglet.

Tigger will buzz around you,

convincing the real bees of
how good you smell.

And when they come down
to get a whiff,

I shall get their honey.

Okay, buddy boy, here we go.

A buzz, a buzz,

a buzz, buzz, buzz.

A biz, a booz, a wiz, waz, wooz.

A weez, a weez,
I'm talkin' bees,

way up there in
the honey trees...

- Psst. Tigger.
- Huh?

Tigger, could you possibly
buzz with a little more "uzz"?

And a little less jazz?

He wants more "uzz."

Why, sure, buddy boy.

Buzz, buzz.

A buzz, buzz, buzz.

Bees, bees, a bees, bees, bees.

- Weez, weez, up in the tree.
- Oh, boy.

I don't want to
appear c-c-c-concerned,

- Tigger, but...
- Oh, you're doing great, Piglet.

Just keep your petals up.

But the bees are tickling my...

Ah, ah, ah, ahh-choo!

Yike!

Oh. Yow!

Whoo. Yow!

We gotcha, buddy bear.

Th-th-think
light thoughts, Pooh.

Oof! Whoa!

Could it be we're...

going about this the wrong way?

Oops. Missed by 17 and
seven-eighths inches.

See? Smack dab
on the dingy.

Thank you, Gopher.

Ooh!

Say, quit your shovin'.

Why'd you want to
tunnel into a tree, anyway?

To get Rabbit's honey,
of course.

I must repay him
for his kindness,

and stop him from moving.

Uh, Gopher,

I seem to have
some small problems.

g*ng way!

Oof!

Whoaah!

Come on, follow me.

We'll lose those pests
in my tunnels.

Goin' down.

It's a dead end.

We're trapped.

Trapped like ratchets.

Uh, uh, Gopher,
you can dig us out of here.

Can't you?

Just a few more inches
and we'll hit fresh air.

Or the bottom of the lake.

Run!

Oh, look. Honey.

Look, Piglet.
A whole pot of honey

for our very dear friend Rabbit.

Oh, bother.

Whoa.

Ahh. Well, I guess my
little trick worked.

Pooh Bear hasn't borrowed
honey for one whole day.

Huh?

Hello, Rabbit.

Oh, no!
Not again!

No more honey!

I know. That's why
I brought you...

No! This is the last straw.

If honey means more to you
than our friendship,

then...

Oh, dear.

I... I'm sorry,
Rabbit.

Uh,
I'll get you some more honey right now.

Just please don't
move away. Please?

Honey?

Pooh brought honey?

For me?

Please. Honey.

No more honey.

No. Oh, please
don't move away.

Stay with us, Rabbit.

I'll bring you some honey.

Bring you some more honey.

I promise.
Mm-hmm.

Oh. Silly old bear.

Hello, Rabbit.

Oh, well, come in, Pooh Bear.

My goodness,
how very nice to see you.

Me, too, Rabbit.

I've, uh, brought you
some honey.

So now you don't
have to move away.

Why, so you have.

How thoughtful.

I was, uh, all out.

Mm-hmm. Well, it looks as
though it might be time for a...

Why, yes.

Thank you, Rabbit.

Perhaps I will have
just a little taste.

My, Rabbit.
You certainly are a friend.

Indeed, Pooh.

Indeed.

Oh, poor Eeyore.

Still staring at the clouds.

Uh, um, I have
called you all here today

be... uh,
because of Eeyore.

He's always so sad.
He's, uh...

Why, he's sitting
out in the rain even now.

We-we-we gotta do something.

Well, of course,
we'll do something, Piglet.

Uh, what did you have in mind?

Well, uh, if... if I were
a very s-s-sad animal,

I'd want someone to cheer me up.

"Definootely."

- Absolutely.
- Yeah, of course.

I knew it all the time.
Mm-hm.

Hey, I got it!

Tomorrow we'll all take turns
cheerin' up old Eeyore.

Yeah. He'll be
Donkey for a Day.

Roo and me will teach him
how to bounce.

Bounce? Hah!

Gardening is the only
true happiness.

Ohh, no, no, no.

Flying. Soaring
the light fantastic.

Sailing high over hill...

What a great idea, Piglet.

Uh, what'll you do?

Me? Well, I'll, uh...
I'll, uh...

Ohh. What can I do?

Oh, you can just watch
the rest of us in action.

And then just do
what Piglets do best.

Whatever that is.

Oh, what to do.
What to do.

I know.

I'll ask Pooh Bear
how to make Eeyore happy.

Thanks for
inviting me over, Pooh Bear.

Guess you couldn't get anyone
more interestin' to come.

Servin' leftovers?

No,
Eeyore. I'm going to cheer you up.

Well, I'm already cheered up.

See?

Now, the way to stay
the happiest

is to let your tongue lickle,

and keep your tummy tickled.

Not that I'm complainin',

but I don't like...

I know what you mean.

I can see you're happy already.

Ahh. Pooh,
if you don't mind...

Of course, I don't mind.

Second helpings are what
happiness is all about.

Oh, dear.

Look what a wonderful time
they're having.

How will I ever be able to make
Eeyore as happy as th-that?

Ahh.

Oh, bother.

It's empty.

Why, so's yours.

That's all right, Pooh.

Donkeys aren't
especially keen on honey.

Especially this donkey.

Well, then,
let's find something you do like.

First, we'll get some apples.

Well, if you're sure you
want to waste them on me.

Hee-ow.

Look out, Eeyore.

I think I dropped one.

Thanks for warnin' me.

Ow!

Watch out again.

Um, Eeyore.

Yes, Pooh?

Hmm.

Now that was what I call
a happy time.

Although it's what most
people simply call a breakfast.

I'd like to call a doctor.

Not that I'm complainin',
mind ya.

But just think,

we've still got lunch
and dinner to go.

I said we still have
lunch and dinner to go.

Eeyore?

Eeyore?

Poor Eeyore.

Something must not have
agreed with him at breakfast.

I shall just have to start
eating from the beginning,

and see where I went wrong.

Look at him.
He's having so much fun.

Why do I have the feelin'

this is not gonna be much fun?

Ohh, but it will be fun, Eeyore.

More fun than sitting on
your old mountain top.

Now, why'd you do that?

Because it's time for your solo.

How I remember my first flight,

soaring on high.

The wind in my feathers,

the whole world
opening up before me.

Oh, it was like yesterday.

Happiness is seeing

the benefits of good hard work.

Ahh. Watching the things
you planted

with your own hands

springing up fresh and green.

And then...

Harvesting them!

Oops.

Here we go again.

If you wouldn't mind.

Oh, why, certainly.
I don't understand.

My big feet... Oh, dear,
oh, dear, oh, dear.

Not that an Eeyore's tail
is very important,

but could you maybe stick it
back in the right place?

Yo-oh-oh-oh!

Swimming? No.

Dancing? No.

Ohh. Perhaps running
would make Eeyore happy.

Even I could teach him that.

Slow down!
Slow down!

Whoo! Stop running so fast!

Mm. This is very frustrating

to a very small
and uninspired animal.

I guess this must be...

make Eeyore miserable day.

So what kind of agony
do you have in store for me?

Ahh, don't worry, Eeyore.

Bouncing will make you happy.

Yeah, and you'll be
twice as happy.

Uh, because you got twice
as many legs to bounce with.

Look at us go!

Ice skating.
Yo-yoing.

Hiding under the bed.

Oh, what am I gonna do?

It's my turn n-n-next.

Uh, Tigger.

Boy, how did everything
get so small down there?

Abandon donkey!

Grab his springs.

Don't worry, kiddo.

When you come down,
we'll be ready for ya.

I can't hardly wait.

Tally-h*.

There.

Right on the old bull's eye.

Eee-yow!

Maybe not.

You know,

he sure swims a lot better
than he bounces.

Uh...

Oh, you, too, little Piglet?

Go ahead.
I'm ready.

Cheer me up.

Oh, Eeyore, I-I-I'd love to.

I mean, I'm supposed to.

But, I-I guess I'm
really here to...

To apologize.

You are always
sitting up here so...

so sad.

Then everyone did such a
good job of cheering you up,

and I-I-I have no way
to make you h-h-happy.

So that's what this is
all about.

Well, I'm grateful to you all.

Even if you almost k*lled me.

But I don't come up here
because I'm sad.

I come up here 'cause I'm happy.

- No?
- Nope.

Let me show you somethin'.

Because you are a good friend.

Now watch that cloud.

Ooh.

My goodness.

What's going on?

Cloud painting.

Eeyore invented it.

It's "spec-tacaler."

Ahh, anybody can do it.

Just use your imagination.

Wow.

Thank you.

Thank you for
sharing this, Eeyore.

It's made everyone so happy.

Just returning the favor,
Piglet.

Just returning the favor.
