Aren't we supposed to say something to make us smile?
Yes, that's right. On the count of three, we all say... um... "cheese".
What kind of cheese?
Any kind of cheese. Mozzarella, meunster, provolone...
[groans impatient] JUST SAY ANYTHING!
[offended] Well!
Okay. Now... one... two... three!
Cheese!
Mozzarella!
Anything!
I see you, Father Bear, and I am blowing cold out of the North!
Why do you blow so cold?!
This is my ocean! These are my seas!
But the ocean belongs to us all!
You will see. I will take a huge breath... and... [blows]
BLOW, MR. WIND! BLOW!
[hiding in a tree] It's out there. I know it's out there. I don't know what it is, but I know it's out there. I can't stay in here forever. But it can't stay out there forever. Maybe I can stay in here longer than it can stay out there. Or maybe not. I could take a peek outside and see, but I'd have to stick my neck out. I'm going to peek out. I have to peek out. [peeks out of the tree] AAAAHHH!
What did he see?
He saw... his shoes!
My own little shoes, and nothing more! Goodness! That old bump in the cave made me jump right out of my shoes, but you came running after me, didn't you? And here you are!
[Watching the marble about to hit the gong.]
It's gonna hit!
It's gonna hit!
So you went to the city today.
Yes, and how it's changed.
That's progress. You can't stop it.
[after fixing Lucy's arm] Anytime she breaks an arm or a leg, I will fix it.
One arm is quite enough. No more today, please.
Our hopes are for Princess Sadawa. She worries about the corn. Corn is food for us all.
Corn is food for us all!
We'd be so thankful for the rain, if you have some to spare.
If you have some to spare!
Dear clouds, what can we do to please you?
What can we do?!
[No response.]
What can we do to please you?
[Cat still doesn't respond.]
Cat, it's your one big line! What can we do?
Somersaults! [everyone exclaims in confusion] Backflips!
[in disbelief] Backflips?
Stand on your heads!
Oh, Cat, cut it out! You're supposed to say "dance"!
It's a rain dance play!
[to the audience] He's supposed to say "dance".
[The audience laughs. Cat peeks from behind the curtain.]
Did someone say "dance"? You want to dance? So dance.
Get down from there, silly!
Please send rain! In buckets, if you like!
Hurry up, Cat! In buckets!
Okay, okay.
[Cat picks up the bucket, and throws the water out of it. No sooner than Cat dumps the bucket, lightning flashes in the sky, and it starts raining.]
Wow, Cat! That was a big bucket!
No, wait! It's raining!
It's really raining!
It's raining!
It's pouring!
The old bear is snoring! He rubbed his shoulder on a great big boulder and wouldn't get up in the morning!
[The audience cheers normally.]
Bravo, bravo!
Encore, encore!
Little Bear, do you think we really made it rain?
I don't know... But I know I'm getting soaked.
Did you hear that?
Hear what?
That laugh.
Our laugh?
No. The laugh of the laughing tree.
I've never heard of a laughing tree.
It's a tree that grabs you and tries to make you laugh by telling bad jokes. You have to make it laugh, or you'll never get away.
There's no such thing as a laughing tree.
[But as Little Bear and Owl continue down the path, they encounter the laughing tree.]
[laughs] Who are you two walking in my woods? "Who"? An owl goes "who"? [laughs] Oh, I can't "bear" it! Get it? An owl and a bear? [laughs]
No.
The laughing tree.
Are you lost? We must get to the "root" of the problem! [laughs]
[The laughing tree tickles Little Bear and Owl, making them laugh.]
I always travel with a "trunk"! [laughs]
Leave us alone! Leave us alone! [gets an idea] Hey. Get it? "Leaf" us alone?
"Leaf" us alone. That's good! [laughs as Little Bear and Owl get away] I like it!
What's really scary is the big, black crow who lives in these woods.
The big, black crow?
Oh, yes. It's twice as big as any other crow.
That's not as scary as a goblin.
It as big as a tree.
As big as the laughing tree?
No, no, I mean bigger. It's so big, that it's bigger than a house.
Oh... That's big.
Goblins, laughing trees, and giant crows! What could be scarier, nobody knows!
The night is cold, the snow is new...
Mother loves the winter...
Father loves the winter...
Grandmother loves winter...
Grandfather loves winter...
And I do, too!
And I do, too!
And I do, too!
And I do, too!
And I do, too.
And I do, too! Hoo!
[giggles] And me, too!
Two little monsters on the moon dance while a comet whiles a tune. One goes up, and then goes down. The other moon monster goes round and round. One moon monster jumps over tall trees, the other one crawls on his hands and knees. One scares himself!
And bumps his head!
The other one says, "You should go to bed."
Not yet!
Duck! Wake up!
[wakes up with a squawk] What's wrong? What happened?
You're snoring.
[offended] I am not!
Well, you were.
Well, so were you!
I wish I was, but your snoring woke me up. [his eyes widen in shock] Where's Lucy?
Lucy?
Oh, no.
What?
You're sitting on Lucy!
[leaps up from the pile of leaves, squawking in shock] Where is she? Lucy? Lucy! [digs through the leaves] Lucy, where are you? [gasps when she sees Lucy]
See? You sat on her!
[Little Bear and Emily arrive.]
Duck? What's the matter?
It's Lucy. Duck sat on her.
I didn't even see her. Poor Lucy. Did I hurt you?
[Lucy doesn't respond.]
Is she moving?
No...
[picks up Lucy] Lucy, speak to me!
Is she saying anything?
No... [Duck gasps in horror] Oh, no, Lucy's dead! Poor, poor Lucy!
[sad] I squashed her.
[in disbelief] Dead? What do you mean, dead? Isn't she a doll?
She's just dead. That's all.
Who's up there, stomping on my bridge?
It's me, Cat. And what do you think of that?
What I'm thinking about is roast cat.
And I'm thinking about scratched troll. [hisses]
Uh-oh. I don't think I like roast cat.
