[bunniefuu]

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

Let's hear it for Mira

Royal Detective

Mira, Mira, Mira

Mira, Mira, Mira

Hey!

Everybody knows I love

A mystery, big or small

I look close and then

I help my friends

There's nothing

She can't solve

Finding clues is what I do

So the Queen appointed you

Now my job's

A dream come true

I'm Mira

Royal Detective

Let's hear it for Mira

Royal Detective

Mira, Mira, Mira

Mira, Mira, Mira

Hey!

We'll take in the world

With a whole new perspective

Our small and mighty hero

We'll find the answers

Let's go

Let's hear it for Mira

Royal Detective

MIRA: The Case

of Disoriented Duckling.

Dusty, dusty.

You're very, very dusty.

This is what I get

for throwing a goat birthday party

in the desert this morning.

Hi, Pinky. Hi, Sadia.

Here's the freshwater you wanted.

Oh! You're a lifesaver, Mira.

Perfect timing.

Wow, Pinky! You're really busy today.

I know, right?

Ever since I added this tub

to my grooming station,

all the animals want baths.

I'm in charge of scrubbing duties.

-Okay, Bala, you ready for your rinse.

-(BALA BARKS)

Sadia is such a great helper.

And so is Anoop.

(TRUMPETS)

-(BARKS)

-(BOTH GIGGLE)

Well, that's one way to cool off.

Okay, Chipi.

Let's get splashin'!

(CHIPI CHITTERS)

Uh, Chipi? Where'd you go?

Looks like she's playing

hide and seek again.

(YELLING) Chipi!

(CHUCKLES)

Giving a bath to a chameleon.

Not easy.

BOTH: Mira!

Hi, Mikku. Hi, Chikku

(SOFTLY) Psst! Don't look now,

but we're being followed.

-By who?

-Hey, you looked.

(QUACKING)

Stop right there, little buddy.

You've been following us around all day.

Yeah! We wanna know why.

(DUCKLING CHIRPING)

Maybe Mr. Duckling

wants some of our laddoos.

Well, he can't have any

because I ate them all.

(GASPS) Chikku!

Guys, I think the baby duck

is trying to say something.

Are you okay, little ducky?

Uh, I don't think

he understands you, Mira.

Oh, Pinky! Do you speak duck?

Me? Speak duck?

No, I don't, actually.

But, I do know a lot about ducks.

And I have never seen

a baby duck without its mom.

What if the baby duck

is looking for his mom?

You lost your mom, little buddy?

BOTH: We need to help him.

BOTH: Can we?

Of course, we can. We are on the case.

We're on the case

We're on the case

We're on the case

Look a little closer

With your magnifying glass

Open up your note book

Get your coat

And badge on fast

Ask all the questions

Follow your senses

-Focus on every clue

-BOTH: Ooh!

Listen for answers

Find what you're after

That's what detectives do

We're on the case

We're on the case

We're on the case

To solve this,

we'll need the advice of an expert.

BOTH: Aww, thanks, Mira.

(LAUGHS) I meant Pinky.

She knows a lot about ducks.

(SQUEALS) Me?

Help out on a case with ducks?

I will need to check my schedule.

Sadia, can you

take over my bath duties?

Absolutely.

Anoop it's you and me, partner.

We won't let you down, Pinky.

-PINKY: (SQUEALS) Perfect!

-Anoop!

-Hey! Watch the glasses.

-What's the big idea?

If Sadia's taking care of the animals,

that means

I'm on the case

I'm on the case I'm on the case

(HUMMING)

(GIGGLES) Great, Pinky.

So, Mikku, Chikku,

do you remember where

you first noticed the baby duck?

We sure do.

It was, uh

Uh, right near that

place we always go.

BOTH: The Detective Agency.

Then maybe the mama duck is there.

Let's go look.

MIKKU: It's all coming back

like a distant memory.

One that I remember perfectly.

This is the spot

where we first saw the baby duck.

Actually, it was here.

Everyone, I found a feather.

It looks like it belongs to a baby duck.

Did you lose a feather, little guy?

-Don't be shy. I'm a friend.

-(QUACKING)

Guys, I think the quacking

is coming from that planter.

In my expert opinion, that is correct.

Good job.

Now why, oh, why

would the planter be quacking?

It's a mystery.

I think I know.

BOTH: The planter speaks duck!

(GIGGLES) No, guys.

There's another baby duck inside.

(BOTH QUACKING)

Whoa! Did you see that?

A tail shake, just like we do.

Mikku, we would

totally win a tail shake battle

-against the ducks, right?

-Definitely.

Guys, I think

the baby ducks are brothers.

(GASPS) Yes!

The tail shake, big giveaway.

Ducks also quack a lot

when they're around their family.

But, where's their mama?

Maybe we should ask around

and see if anyone has seen her.

PINKY: Great idea!

(IN SING-SONG VOICE)

Mama duck, where are you?

(QUACKING)

Aw! Look at those

precious little duckies.

Mr. Khan, we're looking

for their mama.

Have you seen her?

No, I'm afraid not, Mira.

But I'll keep an eye out for you.

Great. Thank you, Uncle.

(HONKS) Hey, Mira.

I've been looking all over for you.

I heard you're looking for a duck.

I have a duck.

Ranjeet, you found a mama duck?

-RANJEET: Not a mama, a baby.

-(QUACKING)

MIRA: Another one!

MIKKU AND CHIKKU: Aw!

All right! Another brother.

What are the odds?

Well, in my expert opinion,

the odds are very good.

Yeah, they sure look like brothers.

Mikku, we should

get a third brother too.

Ranjeet, where did you find him?

I walked outside

the shop to get my bike

when this little guy

waddled out of a bush.

He hopped right into my basket.

He must have wanted a ride.

-We can take him for you.

-Thanks, Mira.

Come here, little guys.

Come to Aunty Pinky.

Good luck finding their mama!

What now, Mira?

Well, since Ranjeet found

the third baby duck by his bike shop,

we should check and see

if the mama duck is there.

You heard the Royal Detective.

Let's move, duckies.

MIKKU: Hey, Mira.

I think they like playing

'Follow the Leader.'

They do, don't they?

Ooh! Ducks love playing

'Follow the Leader.'

They also have three eyelids

and are really hard to sneak up on.

-Follow me.

-No, follow me.

BOTH: Wait for us!

MIRA: Pinky, see anything in the bush?

Hello! Mama duck? (QUACKS)

No, mama duck under here.

Chikku, watch me waddle like a duck.

CHIKKU: Don't forget the head bob.

(GASPS) I found another feather.

Feather! Feather.

Hmm. Anyone lose a feather?

-Not me.

-Nope.

Nope, not me, either.

Huh. It doesn't belong

to anyone here.

Here are some more feathers.

Looks like there's a trail of them.

-Let's follow it.

-(CHIRPING)

MIKKU AND CHIKKU:

More brothers!

In my expert opinion,

those ducks are not real.

They're not real, guys.

You're right. They're toy ducks.

Look! The real ducks

are quacking at something.

(CHIRPING)

Another baby duck!

Hey, cutie!

How'd you get in there?

Whoa! A four-way tail shake.

Mikku, they're tail-shaking geniuses.

(GIGGLES) Aw!

Look how happy they are

playing in the water.

Ducks love water

more than anything.

Well, except for worms, weeds,

tadpoles, tiny fish eggs,

the list goes on and on and on.

Since ducks like water,

a good place to find the mama duck

might be near some water.

Oh, oh, oh, oh! Like a fountain!

Ooh, or a pond.

That's it, Pinky!

There's a pond in the park.

Chalo, chalo! Let's go!

You heard her! Come on, ducks!

(QUACKS)

I think they like the water so much

they don't wanna leave.

Let's see what all the fuss is about.

It is pretty great in here.

When I grow up,

I wanna be a baby duck too.

(GIGGLES) Silly Chikku,

you're a mongoose.

How do we

get the ducks out of the tub?

I have an idea!

Wait right here.

Chipi, here's some

nice fresh water for your bath.

Anoop, where did she go?

(TRUMPETS)

Oh, there you are.

You really don't

want a bath, do you?

PINKY: Sadia, I need to borrow this.

-Don't ask any questions.

-Uh, sure, Pinky.

(CHIPI CHITTERS)

(GIGGLES) Well, Chipi,

the bath tub's gone,

so I guess it's your lucky day.

Hey, duckies.

(CHUCKLES) I have

a very special surprise for you.

(CHIRPING)

Great idea, Pinky.

Now, we can take

the baby ducks to the park.

Come on!

There's the pond.

But where, oh, where is that mama duck?

Chikku, are you thinking

what I'm thinking?

BOTH: Pond party!

Pinky, check it out.

(YELLS) Another feather!

And this one looks

bigger than the other feathers we found.

I wonder if it belongs

to the mama duck.

In my expert opinion, it is

mama duck-sized.

So, maybe she's around here.

But, where?

She's making it really hard to find her.

CHIKKU: Hey, Mira. Look at us!

(ALL QUACKING)

Wait. I think I know

how we can find her.

Let's think this through.

We know that ducks love water,

like to follow each other

and quack a lot as a greeting.

So, maybe

if we walk around the pond area

following each other and quacking,

the mama duck will hear us and quack back.

I was born to quack!

We are in!

Let's do this, people!

If we quack, quack,

Try to get a quack back

If we quack, quack,

Try to get a quack back

Quack, quack,

Quack, quack, quack

Quack, quack,

Quack, quack, quack

Gotta help them find their mama

Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack

And help her find her flock

Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack

Make a sound for her to follow

She'll know the sound is their quack!

Make a waddle in our walk

Maybe then we'll hear her talk

If we quack, quack,

Try to get a quack back

If we quack, quack,

Try to get a quack back

If we quack, quack,

Try to get a quack back

Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack

Ducks are social animals

And when they see their friends

They bob their heads like this

Paddle in the water

Make it splash and most of all

They like to eat and rest

Eat and rest?

Is it possible that I'm a duck?

(GROANS) Oh, Chikku!

If we quack, quack,

Try to get a quack back

If we quack, quack,

Try to get a quack back

If we quack, quack,

Try to get a quack back

Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack

Quack!

(QUACKING)

I hear quacking!

(CHIRPING)

-Heard it too!

-Most definitely.

Loud and clear.

Sounds like it's coming from over there.

Come on.

(QUACKING)

I hear the quacking under that grate.

That means the mama duck is down there.

She must've gotten stuck.

Oh, no!

We need to get her out.

-Mira, baby duckies

-Pinky

BOTH: We got this.

(BOTH STRAINING)

That's heavy.

Too heavy!

Let's try using my grapple grabber

and pulling together.

Wait, Mira!

Okay, you're good.

(CLINKS AND CLICKS)

Ready, everyone?

And pull!

(ALL GROANING)

It's starting to move. Keep pulling!

(CLANGS)

(ALL QUACKING)

-(WHOOPING)

-(EXCLAIMS) Yes!

(SQUEALS) We did it!

Mongoose muscle

works every time.

PINKY: Hi, mama duck.

Oh, okay. Let's

Let's just get you out of there.

You know,

I got some baby duckies

who are really happy to see ya.

(QUACKING)

I've always wanted to say this.

The case of the baby ducks is

(CHIRPING)

I think that's duck for

Closed!

Great job, everyone.

(INDISTINCT EXCLAIMING)

A mother's love.

Aw! Look at that!

Together again.

In my expert opinion,

it does not get better than this.

-That's a pretty good tail shake.

-But, check this out.

MIKKU: Woah!

Hey, we can be their

mongoose brothers.

Yeah. Everyone needs

mongoose brothers.

Hey, Chikku.

You think

the mama duck has any snacks?

Let's keep

following her and find out.

(BOTH QUACKING)

Looks like one big, happy family.

CHIKKU: Quacking like a duck.

MIRA: The Mystery of

the Legendary Cave.

(CHIKKU SNORING)

Now, let's see

What case should I solve next?

(SIGHS) Laddoo. Laddoo.

Yum, yum, yum, yum!

(GASPS) Oh!

This one looks really good.

-A good laddoo?

-I'll take it.

Mikku, Chikku.

I found a new case

in the book of unsolved mysteries.

Oh, we thought you were

talking about a laddoo.

(SIGHS) It was just a dream.

Actually, I know how much you two

love eating snacks after your nap.

So, look what I got you.

-(CHEERS) Laddoos!

-She really gets us.

Thanks, Mira.

Dream come true.

Now, wait until

you hear about this case.

There's a legendary cave

outside of Jalpur

the people have spent years

looking for but never found.

Tell me more.

I'm intrigued.

It says that the entrance to the cave

is a very old stone archway

with beautiful carvings on it.

And this coin has a picture

of the stone archway.

Are those mongooses

on the archway?

Yeah, they do look like mongooses.

Mongooses? Must be a special cave.

What's in it?

-Maybe more coins!

-To add to your coin collection.

-I'll show her.

-No, I'll show her.

Now, look what you did.

Guys, it looks like

one of the royal detectives

figured out the cage is somewhere

in Nevala Canyon, by the river.

But that's as far as he got.

Well, you can solve it, Mira.

Yeah, you can find that cave.

And you will need experts

on this case.

Experts who know

a thing or two about mongooses.

And coins.

I wonder who that could be.

Think, think.

-I got it. Us!

-I got it. Us!

(LAUGHS) I always need you guys.

Okay, let's do it.

We're on the case!

We're on the case!

We're on the case!

(TOGETHER)

We're on the case!

Look a little closer

With your magnifying glass

Open up your notebook

MIKKU/CHIKKU:

Get your coat And badge on fast!

Ask all the questions,

Follow your senses

-Focus on every clue

-Ooh!

Listen for answers,

Find what you're after

TOGETHER:

That's what detectives do!

We're on the case!

We're on the case!

We're on the case!

Guys, look. There's a picture

on the other side of this coin,

and there's writing

on the edge, too.

It says "Go to the mouth

of a mongoose!"

Maybe that's a clue.

Here's the mouth of a mongoose.

Mikku! Do you see the cave?

All I see is a bit of mango in your teeth.

You really should brush more.

Guys, I don't think the clue

is talking about Chikku's mouth.

Then whose mouth

is it talking about?

We'll have to go

to Nevala River Canyon to find out.

Which means we'll need a boat.

Which means we should go see

TOGETHER: Prince Neel!

That's a Flame of the Forest tree.

And that one has figs growing on it.

So, it must be a ficus carica tree.

Good! Very good. Prince Neel!

Actually, Prince Neel,

because of these figs,

we call this a snack tree.

Yummy!

Hi, Mira! Hi Mikku! Hi Chikku!

I've been spending the morning

with Ram Singh Ji.

He's teaching me to identify trees.

That's great, Neel.

-MIKKU: Here's a tree.

-Here's another tree.

Mikku, don't tell Prince Neel,

but this really isn't hard.

Mira, I see you've got

your book of unsolved mysteries.

Working on a new case?

Sure am! We're looking

for a legendary cave.

Could you take us

to Nevala River Canyon?

For a legendary cave? Absolutely!

It's too far to pedal

in your aqua rickshaw, your Highness.

That's true. Which means

We'll have to take my submarine!

-Great!

-CHIKKU: Submarine time!

MIKKU/CHIKKU: Woo-hoo!

Keep your eyes peeled.

We're getting close

to the Nevala River Canyon.

This map says it's marked by a single

plumeria tree growing out of a rock.

See if you can spot it

with my periscope.

Aye Aye, Captain Neel.

MIRA: Which one

is the plumeria tree?

Look for a trunk

with branches and leaves.

That's all the trees, Chikku.

Plumeria trees

have pink flowers in large bunches.

Got it.

Ooh! I see it. Up ahead.

All right, crew.

Sit back and enjoy you ride.

-MIRA: Whoa!

-CHIKKU: What's happening?

Soggy Samosas! We're blocked.

Mira, what do you see?

MIRA: The roots

are blocking our way.

Well, if we can't go through them,

we'll just have to go under them.

Prepared to dive.

MIKKU/CHIKKU: Dive! Dive!

I was talking about the submarine.

We knew that.

We were looking for a lost button.

Periscope down.

Crew, we're fully submerged.

Now, where is the mouth

of the mongoose?

That's our first clue to find the case.

Ahhh.

Chikku, remember, Mira said the cave

is not inside your mouth.

But you do have a little mango

stuck in your teeth.

Whoopsies.

Wait, I think I see something.

Hey, that rock looks just like

Chikku with his mouth open.

Ahem! Mikku, that right there

is why they call me a mongoose expert.

Well, this mongoose expert

is going to find the entrance to the cave.

That looks way too small

to be the entrance of a cave.

But the clue said "go to the

mouth of a mongoose."

I see something shiny

in its mouth.

Looks like that Mongoose

hasn't been brushing his teeth either.

There's something in here Aha!

Another coin for our collection?

Or maybe it's our next clue.

It has a picture of the same stone archway

as the other coin.

Looks like it is a clue.

There's a picture of a snake on it,

and on the edge it says,

"Mongooses keep an eye out

for snakes."

MIKKU: You got that right.

Mongooses and snakes

don't like each other one little bit.

If I ever see a snake, I'm like,

"Hey, snake, don't mess with me

unless you're ready for a dance-battle!"

And the snake

doesn't have legs, so he loses!

I'm a genius.

Hey, where did Mira

and Prince Neel go?

MIKKU/CHIKKU: Wait for us.

Mira, can you read

that clue again?

"Mongooses keep an eye out

for snakes."

Princes should also keep

an eye out for snakes

Uh, Neel, is it my imagination

or does that look like

a nest of

Snakes?

It is not your imagination.

Wait a second.

I wonder if they're actually

Mira, you're going

the wrong direction!

-CHIKKU: Mira! Prince Neel!

-MIKKU: We'll save you!

Don't mess with us, snakes,

unless you're ready for battle.

Dance battle.

Ha ha! You lose!

Guys, those aren't snakes.

They're just tree roots.

Tree roots.

I knew that.

Well, you were both very brave

to protect us.

With you guys around,

we never need to worry about snakes.

-MIKKU: That's right.

-CHIKKU: You know it!

Hmmm. This coin says to check a rock

that looks like a mongoose's mouth.

And this coin says

to keep an eye out for snakes.

These tree roots look like snakes.

Maybe there's another coin

here somewhere.

Let's look around.

Chikku, did you know

Prince Neel can climb a tree?

I didn't! He'd make

an excellent mongoose.

Hey, there's something

in the tree.

Mira, check it out. Another coin.

MIRA: With the same

stone archway.

So it must be another clue.

Or another coin for our collection.

This side

has a sleeping mongoose.

It says, "After battling the snakes,

the brave mongoose needs a nap."

We battled the snakes.

Quite bravely, I would add.

So Where would a mongoose nap?

It looks like there are a lot

of great napping spots around here.

Like this Neem tree.

It's got a moss bed.

Nice and cushy.

(YAWNS) Actually, I could

fall asleep right now.

Prince Neel, we don't nap just anywhere.

We need the perfect spot.

Not too hot. Not too cool.

CHIKKU: Nice and dark.

Nice and dark, huh?

Yup. Unless I have a sleep mask.

Which I do not.

How about this hole

in the ground?

Looks cozy.

We'll check it out. Whoa!

This is the perfect place

to nap.

You gotta see this, Mira.

Chalo, chalo, let's crawl.

-Wow!

-This place is incredible.

-Neel, watch your head-

-Ow.

I wonder if mongooses

lived here a long time ago.

It's got two beds.

We have two beds.

And a cabinet too.

This must be

where the mongooses kept their snacks.

If there are snacks in there,

I probably wouldn't eat them.

No snacks, but there's this.

MIRA/NEEL: Another coin! Ow!

It has the same picture

of the stone archway on the front,

and on the edge it says

"Give the coins to the sleeping mongooses

here and you will find the cave."

MIRA: Our last clue.

All we need to do

is look for the sleeping mongooses

Mira, as a mongoose expert,

I can tell you with confidence

-that there are no mongooses here.

-Except for us.

-They have a point.

-Hey, look at that statue.

Kinda looks like bananas.

You see bananas everywhere, Chikku!

That totally looks like a mango.

I think it's something else.

And I've seen that shape before.

Let's think this through.

Earlier today, Mikku and Chikku

were taking a nap by the window.

Rather adorably, may I add.

MIRA: When they were napping

they were curled up in a shape

that looks just like

that statue.

MIKKU/CHIKKU: Oh, yeah.

That statue does look

like sleeping mongooses.

But how are we supposed

to give coins to a statue?

Well, it looks like

there are slots on top of their heads.

Hey, The coins we found

will fit into them.

May I see one of the coins, please?

Not these coins.

Yeah. They are

for our coin collection.

Guys, we came this far.

Don't you want to see the cave?

Of course we do!

Nothing's happening.

I want my coins back!

What's going on?

-(BOTH GASP)

-Whoa!

Something's

definitely happening! Whoa!

Dizzy mongoose, people!

(RUMBLING)

Whoa! That wall is opening up!

The stone archway!

Just like on the coin.

It's the entrance

to the legendary cave.

We found it.

-Amazing!

-Incredible!

Magnificent.

Look at these old paintings.

Those people must be ancient royals.

And look at the mongooses!

Right by their side!

Wow, our ancestors

actually got to hang out with royalty.

How lucky were they.

Ahem. I'm royalty,

and you hang out with me.

Hey, he's right, Chikku.

We hang out with a Prince!

We are so lucky!

Guys, come check it out.

They look just like you two.

-If you mean handsome and smart

-You're completely correct.

Hey, there's some writing

on the statue.

NEEL: It says

"Scratch the belly of the mongooses

and you will get a welcome gift."

MIKKU/CHIKKU: Oh!

(GIGGLING)

I think it means

those mongooses.

-Oh yeah.

-Our tummies were just itchy.

MIKKU/CHIKKU: Coins!

-Lots of coins!

-For our collection!

Yay!

Now I know why the royal detectives

couldn't solve this mystery before.

They didn't have amazing mongooses

on the case with them.

Our mongoose ancestors

sure had the life.

But we have the life too.

Because we get to go

on mysteries with you, Mira.

And you, Prince Neel.

-Aw, you guys.

-Bring it in!
