Mama:
when the cubs' behaviour

Takes a turn for the worst,

It's hard for parents
to know what to do first.

Did you bring the
shopping list, papa?

I've got it right here.

It's a long one today.

I hope the new
peanut-butter-and-jelly

All-in-one jar
is on the list.

And the new
purple catsup.

Purple catsup?

Who ever heard
of purple catsup?

If it's new,
the cubs have heard of it.

(Sighing)
and want to buy it.

Now, remember what
I told you in the car,

We're here to
buy groceries, that's all,

So no asking
for toys or treats.

Is that understood?

Huh?

Uh-oh.

It looks like we're off
to a bad start.

Wow, rainbow gob-busters!

Cool!

Whoa, check this out,
sister!

They have spy bear
decoder rings!

And bearbie stickers!

(Clearing throat)

I want one of
those rings, mama.

I want some
stickers.

Now what did I just tell you
on the way here?

Uh.... Um... Well, uh...

Um, I forget.

(Sighing)

That we're not here
to buy treats.

Now come along.

Why, isn't that nice?

Mm-hmm,
it's a fine idea.

What's a fine idea?

The store has put these donation
displays here to remind everyone

To give to the different
charities in our community.

You two might think about
donating some of the toys

You've outgrown to
the sick cubs' hospital.

Hey, what's that?

Oh!

Look, new marshmallow
chocolate bears!

Can we have one?

Please, please?

You know the answer.

Now put those back.

Aww... Ok.

(Sighing)
all right.

I can see this shopping trip

Is going to be the same
as all the others.

Hmm, marshmallow
and chocolate.

Aah!

Mmm, two jars of honey.

Two?

I only have one on my list.

We do go through
a lot of honey, honey.

You go through
a lot of honey, honey.

I think one
jar is enough.

Papa:
how about this one?

Mmm!

Papa...

Ok.

It's true what they say
about grocery shopping:

You should never do it
on an empty stomach.

Brother:
wow, neat!

Glow-in-the-dark flyers!

This would be lots of fun
to play with at night.

Can I get it?

No.

I told you not more
than minutes ago that--

Mama, papa,
can I get this?

An apple?

Sure.

Thanks.

Careful, now!

You'll bruise it.

It's not a
real apple, papa.

It's bouncy fruit.

Neat, huh?

They've got bouncy oranges
and bouncy pears

And bouncy bananas...

Hey, if sister can have
bouncy fruit, then...

Then I can have this!

Now listen, you two!

It's not your birthday,
and it's not christmas,

And it's not "give
your cubs a treat" day,

So you can put these
toys back right now.

Both:
aww...

"Give your cubs
a treat" day?

When's that?

There's no such thing.

But the way brother
and sister carry on,

You'd think it was
every day of the year.

Sister:
mmm, look at
all the candy.

I know.

It's hard to know
what to pick.

Ask mama if we
can get something.

You ask!

No, you ask!

We'll both ask.

Ok.

Both:
mama, can we
get something?

Yes, you can.

I forgot to pick up
scouring pads.

Could you please hurry over to
aisle three and get a package?

Aww...

Well, that was
a fun trip.

I know!

We spent all that time
grocery shopping

And all we got
were groceries.

(Squeaking)

Wait a minute, look!

Get your adorable
kitty cats here, folks!

We may not have to go home
empty-handed after all, sis.

Come on, let's go!

They're cute, they're cuddly,
and they won't last long!

(Squeaking)

They won't last long,
all right.

They'll probably break
in less than an hour.

Mama:
oh, papa!

Brother:
I want one, mister!

Sister:
me, too!

(Squeaking)
huh?

Mister:
here you go, cubs.

These are great!

These are cool.

Now just hold on.

We didn't come here
to buy toys.

Papa's right.

Remember what I told you about
buying toys and treats?

But that's when we were
getting our groceries.

We're finished now.

And look at how
cute they are.

(Squeaking)

Sister:
please, please, please,
can we get them?

Aww, come on, folks.

Why don't you buy
your cubs a treat?

Oh, papa, I'd appreciate it
ever, ever so much.

Oh, she's such
an adorable cub.

How could you say no
to a face like that?

Oh, all right.

(Grumbling)

Thank you very much, sir,
and have a great day!

(Clearing throat)
you're welcome.

Thanks, papa.

Sister:
thank you, papa.

Ugh, of all the outrageous,
embarrassing,

Shameful behaviour.

That was the worst case

Of the galloping gimmies
I have ever seen!

You're right, papa.

But perhaps it's partly
our fault for giving in.

Well, what could we do with
those strangers looking at us?

Now I think it's time we had
a talk with our cubs.

Papa:
brother, sister!

Both:
yes, papa?

Papa:
into the living room, please.

It's time for
a family meeting.

There are more important things
in this world

Than getting as many treats
as you can get your hands on.

Greedy cubs who only
think of themselves

Can never really be happy.

Do you know why?

Both:
no.

Because you can't
have everything

You want in life
all the time.

Do you understand?

Both:
yes.

And furthermore, it's good
to think of others sometimes

Instead of just yourselves.

Okay.

We will.

Good.

(Honking)

Oh!

Gramps and gran are here!

(Gasping)

Gramps:
hi there!

What did you bring me?

Yeah, what did
you bring us?

I can't believe you two!

You didn't even say hello!

That's it,
up to your room!

And there will be
no treats for a week!

A month!

A year!

You having
a bad day, son?

Ugh, I'm sorry about
the unpleasant welcome.

But brother and sister
have had a bad case

Of the galloping
greedy gimmies.

Oh, the worst
case yet.

Worst case, huh?

I think I've seen worse.

Well, I'm not surprised.

They've probably made quite
a spectacle of themselves

Over at your house.

Actually, I was
talking about you.

Me?

I had the gimmies?

Papa had the gimmies?

Yep, I'm afraid it's true.

But eventually
you turned around.

I remember the day
it happened.

So do i.

It was at old rufe grizzly's
general store.

We were buying our groceries
and you got the gimmies.

Gran:
you made such a fuss
over a toy truck

That it was downright
embarrassing.

Like how we fussed
about those kitty cats.

And embarrassed papa.

Well, I'm glad
you didn't give in.

Oh, I'm afraid we did.

Oh?

Gramps:
you got what
you wanted that day.

But then, as we were leaving,
you noticed a family

That barely had enough
to put food on the table.

Seeing those folks
and how little they had

Somehow got you to thinking.

And I gave
that cub my truck!

I remember that!

Oh, I love that story.

Sister:
me, too!

Oops.

We're sorry about
how we acted.

I wish we could just start
this whole day over again.

Well, we can start
part of it over again.

Step outside, dear.

(Chuckling)
oh, all right.

(Door closing)
(knocking)

Mama:
oh, I wonder
who that could be?

(Laughing)

Well look who's here!

Gramps and gran.

Brother:
hi, gramps and gran!

Sister:
hi, gramps!
Hi, gran!

Hello, everyone.

It sure is good
to see you.

Yes, and if you brought us
something,

You can just leave it
in the car

Because we're not
even thinking about it.

(Laughing)

What?

Well, let's get this chore
out of the way.

Did you remember
to put...

Yes, honey is
on the list.

(Chuckling)
just double-checking.

Cubs, let's work together
so we can finish this quickly,

All right?

Oh, dear!

Where are they?

Must still be
dawdling outside.

(Laughing)

Sister:
watch out for
mama and papa!

Brother:
watch out!
Road block!

Brother, I don't want you
driving that thing

All around the store.

Okay, papa.

Brother and I decided
to donate a toy

To the hospital
for sick cubs.

(Revving and squealing)

Some cub is going to drive the
nurses crazy with that thing.

(Laughing)

Mama, I think the cubs' greedy
gimmie days are finally over.

I think you're right.

(All laughing)

Brother:
by facing a fear

To get something done,

Maybe you'll learn
it's not scary, but fun.

What do you think of my new
bear scout badge, cousin fred?

The "helping hand" badge?

Impressive. But not nearly
as cool as my astronomy badge.

I earned a new badge too.

It's my sewing badge.

Uh... Mama helped
me sew it on.

(Chuckling)
way to go, sis.

And today, we'll all have
a new one to sew on:

The spelunkers' badge!

Sure is a funny way
to say "cave explorer."

Spelunker!

(Giggling)
that word makes me laugh!

It doesn't make me laugh.

I don't like the idea of poking
around in dark old caves.

It gives me the willies.

Who knows what may be lurking
around in there, just waiting

For a couple of unsuspecting
bear-scout cubs like us?

Aww, you've just been watching
too many monster videos.

You haven't done any spelunking
before, have you, freddy?

Un-uh.

Well, take it from us, there's
nothing to be nervous about.

It might seem a little
spooky at first,

But we'll just take it
step by step.

You're gonna love it.

Besides, out scout master
will be leading the way,

And he's the best!

Papa:
did someone call?

Looks like everyone's ready
for a spelunking good time!

Sure am!

You bet!

Fred?

R-ready as I'll ever be.

(Chuckling)
a first-timer, huh?

Well, just stay
close, cousin fred.

We'll be with you
all the way.

Ok, let's go
spelunking!

(Bleating)

Caves are as much a part
of bear country's geography

As the streams,
rivers and valleys.

And you never can tell what a
cave is going to be like

On the inside just from what it
looks like on the outside.

(Gasping)

I sure hope you're right,

Because this one looks like
the mouth of a rock monster.

It depends on how
you look at it, freddy.

I think it looks more
like a jack-o-lantern.

Sister:
I see that.

It looks more silly
than scary.

You know, from this angle...
(Chuckling)

It does look
more silly than scary.

That string's going to mark
our trail, right, papa?

That's right, sister.

The first rule of cave
exploration is "never get lost."

All right, troops,
let's go!

Well... Here goes.

Sister:
cool!

Brother:
awesome!

It sure is dark in here.

It just takes a minute for your
eyes to adjust to it.

But just in case,

A ready scout always
has their batteries charged.

(Gasping)

Oops!

I didn't mean to startle
you, cousin freddy.

N-no problem.

These caves used to be home to
giant, prehistoric cave bears.

In fact, this cavern right here
was probably the family room.

Sister:
wow!

Brother:
cool!

Freddy:
amazing!

Um, do you think any might
still live here?

That was a long
time ago, freddy.

The most you would find of them
these days would be a fossil,

Or maybe some cave markings.

Cool!

Sister:
look, I found something.

Maybe it belonged
to the cave bears?

(Laughing)

Not unless the cave bears
drank soda.

Papa:
looks like somebody's trash.

Bring it along so we can dispose
of it properly when we get home.

Papa, what's this strange
blue glow on the walls?

Those are
limestone deposits

Caves and mines are home to all
sorts of natural minerals.

Hmm, I think I have an idea

For our next
science project, brother.

B-brother?

(Gasping)

Look out!

A monster's gonna
swallow you!

Monster?

Swallow us?

Oh, you mean these!
(Chuckling)

I guess they do look a little
like monster teeth,

But they're really just
stalagmites and stalactites.

Stalagmites and stalactites
are formed when water drips down

From the 'tites
onto the 'mites.

Stalactites hang
from the ceiling,

And stalagmites
come up from the ground.

There's an easy way
to remember this:

"Stalactites, stalagmites,
only caves have got 'em.

'Tites are always on the top
and 'mites are on the bottom."

(Giggling)
that's easy!

Stalactites, stalagmites,
only caves have got 'em.

All:
'tites are always on the top
and 'mites are on the bottom!

Come on, fred.

Take it easy.

One step at a time.

There's nothing
to worry about, honest.

(Groaning)

(Distant shouting)

Aah!

Did you hear that?
Did you--

That was just papa.

He stubbed his toe
on a rock.

(Groaning)

Sorry for the outburst.

Oh, I should've watched
where I was going.

But... It came
from back there.

Brother heard it too.

Well, of course you did.

Anybody there?

Echo:
anybody there...
Anybody there...

It's just an echo,
freddy.

There's nothing
to be afraid of.

I was scared too.

But as usual, things
that seem scary aren't

Once you know
what they really are.

I know, there's a logical
explanation for everything.

Exactly!

Echo:
exactly... Exactly...

Uh, watch out
for that rock.

All:
cool!

Water often collects in small,
underground pools, which--

(Screeching)

Huh?

What was that?

Whoa!

(Yelling)

(Screeching)

What is it?

(Chuckling)
just a little brown bat.

Talking must've
woken him up.

(Screeching)

Brother:
wow!

Papa:
caverns are great places
for bats,

Because they like to sleep
during the day.

And fly around at night.

"Although things in caves
may seem frightening at first,

They turn out to be nothing once
you see what they really are."

Heh, are you starting to enjoy
your spelunking, freddy?

I think so, finally.

Papa:
shh.

Sister:
look!

Wow, real live fossils!

Maybe a million years ago
they were alive.

What kind of animals
do you think they were?

Those are definitely insects.

There's more over here.

I bet there's even better ones
around the corner.

Huh?

Sorry, troops.

Looks like this is
the end of the line.

Aww, but we were just getting
to the really good stuff.

Can't we just go a little
farther, papa?

Not without a string
to show us the way out.

The second rule
of cave exploration

Is knowing when
to call it a day.

All:
aww.

(Clomping)

Did you hear that?

What is it?

I'm sure there's a
logical explanation.

Sounds like the
logical explanation

Is right around the corner.

(Clomping)

(Laughing)

Phew!

Even I was worried
that time.

Ah, me too.

Well, that's a logical
explanation if I ever saw one.

Papa:
uh-oh.

It looks like
we've hit a little snag.

Our string path turned into a
spaghetti lunch for this goat.

Does that mean
we're lost?

We can't find our way out?

We're stuck
in here forever?

Now, we just need
to take a minute

And think this through
carefully.

Hey, I think
I have a solution.

It's something I read in a
bearlock holmes mystery book.

Ah-ha, I can feel a breeze
on my wet finger.

And breezes don't come from
inside caves, which means...

There must be another exit.

Ah, well done, fred!

Uh, the breeze is coming
from that way.

But... But that's
deeper into the cave.

What if we get more lost?

We'll just have
to try it.

(Bleating)

(Splashing)

Sounds like an underground--

Stream!

(Yelling)

(Laughing)

(Cheering)

(Laughing)

I know they're here
somewhere.

Ah-ha, here you go.

Three slightly damp
spelunkers' badges.

You've earned them.

Especially cousin fred, for
helping us find our way out.

Great job, freddy.

Exploring caves
is really fun.

As long as you do it
with a cave expert like papa.

And you know there's a logical
explanation around every corner.

(Laughing)

(Bleating)
