Oh! Now Custard... [She puts the cups down] That's not something to play with. [She boops Custard's nose while giggling; sees a shadow] Oh! [Mr. Longface Caterpillar walks in] Hi, Mr. Longface Caterpillar!
I didn't mean to startle you, Miss Shortcake.
So, how is someone as bitty as us suppose to move something as big as that?
I hope so, because without water, the berries will die.
No water, no berries; no berries, no juice; no juice, no city; and no city, no use.
I'm sorry I brought you all this way for nothing. We better turn back.
Chin up! You tried your best. There's really no shame in turning home.
Plum, crying is nothing to be ashamed of.
I know I joke all the time, but the truth is, I love Berry Bitty City. It's my home. Another home won't be the same.
Plum, that's all you had to say.
It's just fool's gold, I'm afraid.
It's a mineral called iron pyrite. It sparkles like gold. That's why it's called "fool's gold".
There isn't time. They've already left. The strawberries need to be replanted. They are not going to turn around and come back here to take a risk on another wild scheme.
They will if you ask them.
Me? Why would they listen to me?
Because you have a serious talent.
No, helping people believe they can do anything.
Oh Todd, I'm so sorry. Where did I go wrong? I've tried to give him everything a fish needs.
Everything a fish could want.
But it might be best to take him back to the stream, huh?
What? I can't do that. I promised to take care of him.
But that's when you thought he was a fish. It's just that, well, isn't a frog more than you bargained for?
I am not going to turn my back on him just because he switched species. He, Tad, can't help it if he's a frog.
Oh, no. Tad, doing his night croaking.
How can we do our night sleeping?
Maybe the croaking is just a stage, and he'll grow out of it.
That'll probably be the only thing he doesn't grow out of.
Orange, What's the matter?
It's Tad! He's He's gone! [sobbing]
[gasps] Now don't worry! everyone's out looking, I'm sure the berrykins will find him any minute now. He couldn't have gone very far!
I did everything I could for him, I kept him cool when he was hot, warm when he was cold raised him, sheltered him, no frog has ever been so loved and now he ran away!
Orange, everyone knows you to be so kind and considerate, but I think maybe you've been trying to be so kind and considerate to Tad that you've forgotten about everyone else.
But you guys are my friends. My very best friends. I could never forget you.
What I mean is, Tad has caused a bit of trouble, and—
But he doesn't know any better.
Exactly. I think being responsible for a pet means taking responsibility for any trouble he causes, because the pet really doesn't know any better.
I know it's been difficult. But I know if it meant doing the right thing for Tad, you could do something even more difficult.
Of course! I'd do anything for Tad. What is it, that's more difficult than all the things I've done so far? I mean, those were big things. What's bigger than that?
Sometimes the berry biggest things we have to do are the things we can't even see.
He didn't even say goodbye.
But did you see how happy he was?
Yeah, you're right. He wasn't just happy, he was the happiest I've ever seen him! Oh, and that makes me happy too!
Where are you off to, Strawberry?
On a camp out. I'm trying to write a poem about wishing on a shooting star, and Mr. Longface says to write about something, you should experience it.
Ah yes. Just like when I dance. One has to feel it from within.
Think it might be a little cold tonight for a camp out?
Well, if this will make me a better writer, it's worth it.
And how many nights have you girls been fashion sprites?
