[Little Bear is showing the maracas to Duck.]
They're called maracas.
Oh, how wonderful!
Father Bear found them across the ocean, a long time ago.
[amazed] Oh!
A long, long time. Even before we were born.
Before we were born?
Way back, when there were pirates.
Pirates? Really? Oh, my!
Mother Bear said they were sentimental, and you know what that means.
I do?
[A dream sequence shows Father Bear sitting and thinking while holding a maraca without a handle, while pirates run in from the hills in the distance.]
No, I don't.
[beat] Treasure.
[Later, Duck shows Hen the maracas.]
[clucks with surprise] Pirates? Oh, no! Are you sure?
Yes, I'm sure! That's what Little Bear said! He said they were pirates! They came from Morocco! They were sandy and mental.
Sandy and mental? The pirates?
[A dream sequence shows Father Bear fighting pirates on a ship.]
Yes, yes, the pirates! And Father Bear took their treasure. The pirates stole it and Father Bear stole it back!
[Next, Hen is talking to Owl about the pirates.]
Father Bear stole them from pirates?!
What else could he do?
Did he use a sword or a saber?
Sword or a saber? Sword or a saber? How would I know?
Maybe both?
Both? Both! Must've been both. Of course! Both! But I bet those pirates are mad.
Uh-oh...
[Next, Owl tells Cat about the pirates.]
A sword and a saber? How many pirates did Father Bear fight?
A dozen, at least.
[unimpressed] A dozen?
Maybe a hundred.
[A dream sequence shows Father Bear being surrounded by a lot of pirates while a crafty smile appears on his face.]
But Father Bear won. He won the treasure. Those pirates are bound to come back.
Do you really think so?
Oh, yes! They were mad!
What should we do?
