you were trying to steal food i told you

to leave

yeah you did that's right i was just i

was just staying around to make you look

good

yeah to make you look like that's it

what are you

talking about since you let me go i

thought i'd do you a favor by staying

around

you know so you can catch me over and

over

then everyone will think you're the best

rat catcher in the entire village

best rat catcher yeah think of all the

treats you'll get when they see you

catch me

sounds okay i guess i don't see the harm

okay let's try it so where do we start

well we got a great

thing going

[Music]

over there i think i saw something by

the pond

[Music]

see anything nothing your magistrate

look behind the throne as well we must

finish cleaning

every inch of the palace before new year

[Music]

what's this

seems sagua has caught a rat madam ew

if everyone else was as good as you we'd

have this place cleaned in no

time now could you get it out of the

[Music]

palace

[Music]

i don't like rats thankfully we have

sagua

[Music]

wasn't i right now everyone thinks

you're the best rat catcher ever

must feel pretty good to be a celebrity

yeah

it's okay it would be even more

convincing if you let me take some

food how about grape what could be so

bad about a grape grapes are so

good i don't think that's right

i'm not even sure if what we're doing is

right don't worry about it no one else

knows

but i know no one's gonna miss one

little itty-bitty grape now

right i i guess it's okay

it's just a grape after all

[Music]

you're all right kids oh i mean

it's the cook we better get ready

ah how fast you are sagwa

[Music]

you know it's pretty slippery around the

edge of the pond and i

uh yes your highness very slippery

tonight's special dinner am i not

entitled to celebrate new year's eve
