This could be the room of any small boy...
but it just happens to belong to a boy...
named Christopher Robin.
Like any small child...
Christopher Robin had toy animals to play with...
and together they shared many exciting...
and unusual adventures.
Where was I?
Oh, yes.
They shared many exciting and unusual...
What is going on here?
Hello? Is anyone there?
Hiya, Mr Narrator!
Hello, Roo.
Are you gonna tell a story about Winnie the Pooh and Piglet?
Well, not exactly.
Although, I can assure you...
they'll be joining us very soon.
Then it must be about my best bouncin' buddy Tigger, huh?
Tigger's right in the thick of things as always...
but this story isn't really about them.
Then who's it about?
Actually, the story begins with you.
Me?
No way!
Yes... way.
Roo, dear!
Your breakfast is getting cold.
That's my mama. I gotta go.
See you later!
See you in a few pages.
Our story begins on a fine spring day...
in the Hundred Acre Wood.
And on that quiet and peaceful morning...
the only sounds to be heard...
were the chirping of the birds...
the buzzing of the bees, and...
Today's the day! It's finally here!
Easter!
Perhaps I'll just let Roo take it from here.
I'm goin' to Rabbit's for the Easter egg hunt, Mama.
Well, it certainly is a beautiful day for it.
Me and Tigger are gonna find every egg...
in the Hundred Acre Wood.
I'm sure you will, dear.
But first, come and eat your breakfast.
If I find any pink eggs, I'm givin' them to Piglet.
The pink ones are his favourite.
How sweet of you.
You're gonna make him very happy.
I sure hope so.
And I'm gonna bring you a blue one, Mama...
'cause those are the prettiest.
Well, you better eat up, then.
You can't hunt eggs on an empty stomach.
That's what Winnie the Pooh says, too.
And he's exactly right.
So, you can go just as soon as you're fini...
All done!
Happy Easter, Tigger!
You bounced me good, Roo boy.
Whatcha got in the bag?
Just a little somethin' to help you find Eastery eggs.
First, a compass, so you'll know...
where you are and where you aren't.
A backpack for packin' Eastery eggs in.
Rope for whatnot. In that case, you don't even need a knot.
Some of this, some of that...
take some of this, a little extra of that.
Different holiday.
Of course, I've gotta have one of these.
In short, everything you need but Roo.
Roo? Roo?
Roo?
Here I am, Tigger!
Oh, there you are.
You're gettin' kinda big, kiddo. Now let's get goin'!
Good-bye, dears. Have fun.
She called us dears.
Good-bye, Miss Kanga, ma'am!
And hello, too! I guess.
Now, I promised that Winnie the Pooh...
would be in this story, and here he is now.
Hello, Piglet.
Hello, Pooh.
I'm glad I ran into you because now we can go...
to Rabbit's house together.
I can't wait to see what he's doing for Easter this year.
Yes, Piglet.
Especially if there's honey.
My tummy and I have been so looking forward to this day.
Even you must be happy on a day like this, Eeyore.
Positively tickled pink.
Just like Piglet.
I do love Easter.
All the flowers are blooming.
And the bees are busy buzzing for honey.
Yep. Makes me feel downright...
Peaceful.
Hello, Tigger.
Don't you mean, "Happy Easter"?
And if that is what you mean, you know what that means.
We get to go hunt Eastery eggs!
With my special pink Easter basket.
And my lovely Easter honey pot.
Wouldn't be Easter without my super stripedy Eastery egg!
Or my fluffy bunny ears.
Well, what are we waitin' for?
Stop your talkin', and start your walkin'! Ha ha ha!
We're huntin' eggs today
And I can hardly wait for what we'll find there
We're huntin' eggs today
We're hunting' eggs today
The Easter bunny's left a lot behind there
Red ones, blue ones
Yellow, pink, and green
Purple polka-dotted ones
Even tangerine
A super strippidy stripedy one
I bet you've never seen
We're huntin' eggs today
And that's our favourite way
To spend a flippity floppity
Hippity hoppity
Happy...
Spring cleaning day!
It's spring cleaning day, everyone!
That wasn't quite what I had in mind.
But, Rabbit, don't you remember what today is?
Yeah, we're supposed to be celebrating...
Spring cleaning day! That's what I said.
But, Rabbit, aren't you forgetting something?
Your detailed list of chores and duties.
I've got it right here.
But, Rabbit, today's the day...
that I always get my very special...
Mop and bucket! That's right, Pooh.
Now step lively, everyone. Can't afford to dilly-dally.
You've got a lot of work to do.
You fooled us good, Rabbit.
Now we can go celebrate Eas...
Enough chit-chat, Roo.
This is no time for fun and games.
No, no.
But it's such a pretty day outside.
Yes, and it will be just as pretty inside...
as long as you all do exactly as I say!
Pay attention now, everyone. The theme for this year...
is "Spick-and-span for spring."
Kinda catchy, if I do say so myself.
Now, if you'd all direct your attention...
to this scale model I've created.
Please excuse the rudimentary workmanship.
I just threw it together at the last minute.
Now, when I give the signal, you will disperse...
to your assigned cleaning stations.
Tigger, Piglet, Pooh, you'll dust, sweep, mop, and scrub...
and don't spare the soap.
You can never be too clean, you know.
On the floor, go with the grain...
Piglet, you don't suppose this could be a honey pot, do you?
No, Pooh. I don't suppose.
Empty. Not even a smackerel.
And Eeyore, your job is to sweep...
all the soot out of the chimney.
Thanks for noticin' me.
- I beg your pardon, Rabbit... - Yes, what is it, Pooh?
This honey pot appears to be rather empty.
That's because it's not a honey pot, Pooh.
- It's a bucket. - Bother.
Because if it were a honey pot, I should fill it with honey.
No, no, no honey!
Honey's no good for anything but making messes!
And eating, Rabbit.
On second thought, Pooh, I'm going to promote you...
to supervisor.
Hey! Congratulations, Mr Supitty-duper-visor!
How exciting, Pooh.
Yes, it is exciting.
What is a supervisor, Rabbit?
A supervisor is someone who sits right here...
and doesn't cause trouble.
Oh, Rabbit. It's no trouble at all.
Can I ask a question?
Yes, Roo. I almost forgot.
I've given you the simplest task of all.
You're to clean the closet.
All you have to do is...
organise, sanitise, and alphabetise every single box...
and leave them all neatly closed and dusted...
and placed at right angles on the shelves.
Very well. You have your orders.
Now, I expect this place to be spotless when I get back.
- Where will you be, Rabbit? - Tidying up in the garden.
Outside? Can't I help?
No, Roo. No, no.
Better leave it to me and me alone.
Now, to work, everyone!
Rabbit, wait! What about...
Easter?
As you can see...
Rabbit didn't pay attention to what anyone else wanted...
only to what he wanted.
That's why he was happiest of all...
out here in his garden...
where nobody could question his orders...
and everything would be just so.
Good morning, Franklin.
And you're looking well, Frederick.
There you go, Belinda.
Snug as a bug in a rug.
What? Oh, no! Oh, no, no!
Get out! Shoo! All of you! Shoo! Shoo!
Much better.
Rabbit weeded and swept and raked...
all the way from page 122...
to a rather immaculate page 127.
Meanwhile, back inside...
Ohh
Cleanin' up the cobwebs is what Tiggers do the bestest
Bouncin' high into the sky to get up where the mess is
Now I don't want to boast
But what I really must confess is
That cleaning up the cobwebs
Is what Tiggers do the bestest
All together now
Or not. Why so glum, chums?
Didn't think I looked so glum.
I miss my Easter honey pot...
and I especially miss the honey that comes with it.
And I miss my pink Easter basket.
Oh, come on, fellas.
Let's got to sanitorising and nifty-a-fying.
We don't want to let ol' Rabbit down now, do we?
I guess not.
What are we waiting for? Let's hop to it.
Yeah! Let's hop to it! Just like the Easter bunny!
Just like the Easter bun...
Hey, Roo boy, you made a funny!
A bunny funny!
Did someone mention honey?
Come on, Tigger, we gotta spring into action!
Attaboy, Roo boy!
We'll have this place spiffy in a jiffy!
In...
OK, maybe two jiffys.
Gesundheit, Pooh.
This cleanin' stuff sure is dirty business.
Say, how you comin' in there, Roo boy?
Almost done!
Just one more box!
Tigger and the gang were cleaning up quite a storm.
However, as they swept the dust out of the corners...
they swept it right into Winnie the Pooh.
Oh, bother.
Sniffley sniff
Whistley wheeze
Here it comes, a great big sneeze
I feel it in my ears and knees
Here it comes, a great big sneeze
I close my eyes and wiggle my nose
I itch and scrunch my face
I shiver and shake down to my toes
And wave my arms all over the place
Goodness!
Sniffley sniff, whistley wheeze
Here it comes, a great big sneeze
I feel it in my ears and knees
Here it comes
A
Great
Big
Oh, dear!
Better hang onto something!
I think he's gonna blow!
Winnie the Pooh sneezed the biggest sneeze...
that had ever been sneezed in the Hundred Acre Wood!
Piglet?
Stuff and fluff.
Piglet?
Excuse me, Mr Dust Bunny...
did you perchance see my friend Piglet?
It's me, Pooh!
So it is.
Where's Tigger?
- Found him. - Hi!
Eeyore, where are you?
There he is.
Are you alright, Eeyore?
Been better.
Been worse, too.
Hey, where's Roo?
Yoo-hoo, Roo-hoo!
In here, Tigger!
What is all this stuff?
Wait a cotton-picking second.
That's Rabbit's Easter bunny hat!
And look! I found your Easter honey pot, Pooh!
And I believe this is your favourite Easter basket, Piglet.
And my fluffy bunny ears.
Here's your stripedy Easter egg, Tigger.
Roo boy, you founded our old Easter decorations.
Yeah! They were hidden way up there.
I used the biggest bounce ever to reach 'em.
Maybe Rabbit couldn't find them back there...
and that's why he forgot about Easter.
Well, now that we have everything...
why don't we surprise him?
- We could paint Easter eggs. - And fill honey pots.
Sounds awfully festive.
And then can we have an Easter egg hunt? Can we, huh?
You're way ahead of me, Roo boy.
No, I'm not, Tigger. I'm right here beside you.
So you are, so you are. Hoo hoo hoo!
Now, you do remember what to do...
with all this Eastery stuff, don't you?
I kinda sorta do.
Oh, right. That's on account of because you only did it once...
when you were an even littler little fella.
Come here, you.
Allow us to remember you...
all there is to know about having fun at Easter.
Hold onto your socks, and open up the box
There's streamers and there's sparklers and confetti
All the stuff we need for getting ready
For the biggest thing
We've seen this spring
This place could use some bounce
In extra-large amounts
We'll decorate it super-great and then
We'll be set for Easter
Once again
Then we'll have a great funny honey of a Easter
With painted eggs and jellybeans, too
- Of all the fun and neat stuff - The candy and the sweet stuff
My favourite Easter wish will come true
When I share this Easter day with you
Tell me more, Tigger! Tell me more!
Well, Roo boy, I almost forgot the most importantest part.
'Cause what I like most about Easter
Is the way we show our pals that we care
For the fun never ends
When you give to your friends
And you share the wonder of a
Bright and sunny honey of an Easter
With painted eggs and jellybeans, too
- Of all the fun and neat stuff - The candy and the sweet stuff?
My favourite Easter wish will come true
When we share this Easter day with you
Lots of fun and neat stuff, the candy and the sweet stuff
Hunt for eggs and chase balloons and shout hip-hip-hooray
...day with you
Happy Easter, Rabbit!
Easter? Easter?!
Sure! You remember Easter, don't you?
You know, jellybeans and Easter baskets...
and great big Easter egg hunts.
Well, Roo...
I'm afraid you've been terribly misinformed.
Why, this is spring cleaning day.
And you've all ruined it!
I don't believe it!
I told you exactly what to do! And you didn't do any of it!
- But, Rabbit... - Not another word!
I want you all out of here at once! Out!
Out!
- But... - All of you, out!
I'll take that.
That went well.
Maybe we should've sung it in a different key.
I don't think so, Tigger.
I don't think Rabbit wants us to sing anything.
Now that you mention it, I'm starting to get the feeling...
Rabbit doesn't want to celebrate Easter at all.
Easter...
Guess there's nothing left to do but go home, then.
Come on, Roo boy.
Roo?
Roo! There you are.
You want to go bouncin'?
No, thanks. I don't feel like it.
Look on the bright side...
at least you don't have to do any more springedy cleaning.
What are we gonna do about Rabbit?
He did get pretty hot and bothery.
Tigger, why is Rabbit so unhappy?
I kinda got the compression...
it had something to do with this Eastery stuff.
Does this mean we're not gonna do Eastery stuff any more?
What? Not do Eastery stuff?
Well, of course we're gonna do Eastery stuff!
Alls we gotta do is...
is stuff that is, per se, Eastery in nature.
Which would necessessititate...
the doage of st...
We're never, ever gonna get to do Eastery stuff again!
- But why not? - Why not? Why not, you ask?
Actually, that's a good question.
And I know just who to ask it to, too!
You're gonna go talk to Rabbit?
Why, Roo boy, I'm gonna hit him...
with all the powerses of my persuasion.
And if that doesn't work...
I'll just rely on my irresistibibble charm.
Do you really think you can change his mind?
Do I? Everything changes in springedy time!
Cocoonses become flutterbys, seeds become flowers...
and little Roos become bigger Roos.
Anyone can change... even Rabbit.
If we had Easter again, we could make everyone happy!
Attaboy, Roo boy!
I'll get everybody together while you go talk to Rabbit.
And I'm not coming back until I come back...
or Rabbit gives us Easter back, whichever comes first!
OK, see you later!
If I don't see you sooner.
Hiya, Mama!
Roo! You're home already?
Rabbit canceled Easter.
I'm so sorry, dear. I know how much...
you were looking forward to your Easter egg hunt.
It's not just me. Everyone's sad.
I see.
You seem to be taking it rather well, though.
That's 'cause me and Tigger are gonna fix everything.
And then you'll have your Easter egg hunt?
I don't mind if we never hunt for eggs, Mama.
I just want to give everybody a happy Easter.
- Is that OK? - I think that's wonderful.
We'll practise doin' Easter stuff till Tigger comes back.
That ought to cheer everybody up.
So Roo ventured off to gather his friends...
and bring them home to practise for Easter.
Meanwhile, Tigger had gone back to have a word with Rabbit.
The only problem was...
he couldn't make up his mind which word to have.
OK. Let's see. Rabbit... l... you...
well... when... l...
I just gotta get this right for Roo boy.
OK, self, pull yourself together.
You just gotta be cool, calm, and collectivated.
Rabbit, old friend, I have a matter...
of grave importance to discuss with you.
That's it!
Apparently, being cool, calm, and collectivated...
is yet another thing that Tiggers do the...
Rabbit...
- Rabbit... - What is it?
Go away!
What do you want from me?
Oh, no!
- Rabbit... - Who are you?
Rabbit!
Oh, no!
It's me, Tigger!
Gee, long ears, you look like you just saw a ghost.
Maybe you better sit down.
I think I'd better...
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute!
Tigger?! What on earth are you doing here?
Well?
Rabbit, I mean, you...
- When... - What?
Roo's really upset about what happeneded today.
I see. Roo's upset. Well, what about me?
Look at all this mess you've caused on...
on spring cleaning day, no less!
I'm not talking about springedy cleanin' day.
I'm talking about...
Don't say it, Tigger. Don't say it!
Do not say that word in my house!
- What word? - I refuse to say it.
If you won't tell me what word I'm not supposed to say...
then how am I gonna know not to say it?
Let's see... is it carrotses?
- No! - Rutabagas!
No!
- Thingamawhatsits hicketyjigs? - That's not even a word!
Onomatopoeia? And that is a word.
- Why would you ever say that? - Why wouldn't you say it?
Onomatopoeia, onomatopoeia
Onomatopoeia, it's an onomatopoeia
Easter! The word is Easter!
That was gonna be my next guess.
Tigger, would you please just leave?
Come on, Rabbit.
Aren't we never, ever gonna have another Eastery egg hunt again?
No! Not never ever! Never again!
But you used to love Easter!
Says who?
I beg your pardon, Rabbit. You did used to love Easter.
Yeah, says him!
I don't believe you. I don't believe either of you.
Then perhaps you should see for yourself.
Don't you remember what happened back in chapter three?
Hey, that's right!
What are you talking about?
Come on, I'll show you!
And so, Tigger took Rabbit back in time...
into the past...
past chapters 23 and 21...
Well, I used to be around here somewheres.
Just a bit farther back, Tigger.
Mucho obligato, Monsieur Narrator, sir.
You're quite welcome.
And so they arrived at chapter three...
in which Rabbit organises a very organised Easter celebration.
Oh, my, look at that.
Hey, look, I made a rainbow!
No, you didn't! A rainbow goes like this...
red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
See? All the colors are in their proper order.
Well, maybe this is a different kind of rainbow.
There's only one kind of rainbow, Tigger.
The right kind!
Pooh! The jellybeans are for decorating, not for eating!
Bother.
I have an idea.
Since this is Roo's first Easter in the Hundred Acre Wood...
why don't all of you go get our special guest...
while I stay here and make everything perfect. Hmm?
Yes, sir, General Long Ears, sir!
Come on, fellas!
Yeah.
It's flawless! Precise.
Why, it's an absolutely perfect Easter.
And why shouldn't it be? I was the Easter bunny.
Of course you were, long ears.
I mean, it'd be kind of ridikerous...
to have an Easter Tigger, now, wouldn't it?
Yes, it would, as a matter of fact.
You see, when I was the Easter bunny...
Easter was a sheer delight.
I created the plans and organised the schedule...
and everyone did exactly what I told them to do.
I loved being the Easter bunny.
Sounds like you do miss Easter.
What?
That's OK. We all miss it.
Especially little Roo.
Come on, let's give 'em back their Easter celebration.
What do you say, huh? Come on, Ra-ra!
Ra-ra? Ra-ra?!
My name is Rabbit!
And I most certainly do not miss Easter!
But look, look!
You used to love being the Eastery bunny.
You were the head bunny in charge.
Yes, and that's why I liked it.
But I certainly don't like it anymore.
But on account of why?
I had Roo's first Easter planned to perfection...
until you had to get involved!
I remember it like it was only last year!
It was only last year.
It's all comin' back to me now.
Happy Easter, Miss Kanga, ma'am.
Happy Easter, everyone.
Hiya, Tigger!
Mornin', little bouncin' buddy!
- Whatcha doin' there? - I'm helpin' Mama unpack.
We're down to the last boxes.
Then why don't we take the little nipper...
over to Rabbits's for a great big Eastery egg hunt?
Can I, Mama? Can I?
Oh, dear!
Well done, Kanga.
I think I could spare him for a few hours.
Okey-dokey, Roo boy.
Are you ready for your very first Eastery egg hunt?
You bet! Tigger?
What's an Eastery egg hunt?
An Eastery egg hunt is practicacally...
the mostest fun a little nipper can have is all.
Or even a big nipper, too.
Are Easter eggs hard to catch?
Naw.
You just gotta have the right tech-a-nique.
First... you sneak up on him...
like a great big sneakity snake...
and then...
you bounce!
Hiya, long-ears!
Tigger!
Hiya, Mr Rabbit!
Taught him everything he knows.
That explains a lot.
Happy Easter, Easter bunny!
It won't be so happy if I don't get these supplies in order.
We're already ten minutes behind schedule.
No. No, no, no!
What do you think you're doing?!
Making Easter eggs.
But you're going completely out of order!
Hey, this looks like fun!
It isn't fun, it's Easter!
Go easy on him.
It's his very firstest Easter celebration, you know.
Yes, of course I know.
That's why I want everything to be perfect.
Come on, Rabbit.
He's really got his little heart set on this.
Let him hunt just one Eastery egg.
But they aren't even decorated yet.
You're right! We'll hunt 'em first, and decorate 'em later!
Good idea, Tigger!
Then we wouldn't have to worry about grass stains...
on our coloured eggs.
Have you all gone mad?!
You can't possibly do these things out of order.
I don't mind if it's not decorated.
No, no, no!
Perhaps I should explain to our new guest...
how we do things around here.
For our yearly Easter fun...
we use the checklist. Number one...
we get the eggs, and then we lay them out like so.
Number two...
we colour them and dye them...
then we take them out and dry them...
And we line them up precisely in a row
Next we stack them and we pack them...
make a list so we can track them...
tie the ribbons, stuff the baskets when it's done.
Then we count them out precisely...
and we decorate them nicely...
and when all of that is finished, we'll have fun.
'Cause that's the way
It must be done
See, from step one
See, that's how we win
We have to be aware to start to prepare
To commence to get ready to begin
Oh, dear.
- Now, shall we get to work? - Me first!
Very well. I have all the jobs assigned here on my clipboard.
- I'll take this one. - I'll do the baskets.
Now, wait a minute.
- I'll paint this red! - No, paint it blue.
- I'll take this end. - No, that's for Pooh.
- I'll use this brush. - That's not for you.
- I'll tie the bow. - No, that's for Roo!
What do you want me to do?
You take the scissors and the glue.
How about we paint this somethin' new...
- like maybe stripes? - Me, too!
No, no, no! Stop having fun!
We have to systemise, prioritise...
coordinate, and organise...
or else we'll never, ever get this done!
We need order
Concentration
This situation needs focus, control.
We're painting and drying and packing and tying.
Get together, or we'll never reach the goal.
- I'll paint this red! - We need order
- Or maybe blue! - Concentration
- I'll stuff the baskets. - I'll dry these two.
Out of control
I'll tie the ribbons!
- I'll write the card. - Packing, tying
We can do it, nothin' to it!
Look at us, we're almost through it!
You're not doing it right! Hold on!
Stop!
There. There, do you see? Do you see what you were doing?
Well, ain't it oblivious?
Everybody was havin' fun.
Is that so?
I see your point.
Everybody was havin' fun but you.
But there was plenty of fun to go around.
What'd you have to stop us for?
Well, I didn't have a choice.
It was complete and utter chaos...
a disaster in the making.
Yes, yes, that's it.
You were completely out of control.
That's why I had to put my foot down.
I think you all need a remedial lesson on the rules of Easter.
There certainly are an awful lot of rules, Rabbit.
Well, I'm sorry, but I'm the Easter bunny...
so I make the rules.
And rule number one is...
the Easter egg hunt does not begin...
until the Easter bunny says so.
That, of course, would be...
me.
Tigger! Look, I found one!
Another one!
Way to go, Piglet!
Where did they get off to now?
Found another!
Good boy!
Pretty.
Hey, look, here's some more!
Oh, boy.
We got an Easter egger finder. Watch this, guys!
Nice catch there, Roo boy.
Just lucky, I guess.
Luck had nothin' to do with it.
Just look at all them eggsies.
Roo boy, you are a natural!
I did it just like you taught me.
First, you sneak up on 'em.
And then...
you bounce!
Just like I taught him.
Another one!
Here! I found one, too!
Here's some more!
Oh, my.
So many eggs.
Yes, and so much honey.
Kinda tickles.
Roo boy, I think you're just about the bestest...
Eastery egg hunter ever!
And you gave me the greatest Easter, Tigger.
So I guess that makes you the best Easter bunny ever.
But what about me?
Hooray for Tigger!
I'm the Easter bunny.
Hooray!
You're bunny number one.
Hooray.
How could they have Easter without me?
Three cheers for Tigger!
Every spring...
I look forward to one thing most of all...
being the Easter bunny.
You took that away from me.
Well, we never meant to hurt you, Rabbit.
We were just trying to give Roo a happy Easter.
I mean, didn't you want to give him a happy Easter, too?
Go away, Tigger. I want to be alone.
Well, I guess I'd better go tell Roo the bad news.
We're never gonna have another Eastery egg hunt again.
- Rabbit? - What?!
Why are you following me? What do you want?
Would you like to see more?
No. I've seen enough. I want to go home.
Very well, Rabbit. Go on, then.
While Rabbit makes his way home...
perhaps we should also return to the present day.
It seems that while we were away...
Roo and the gang have been hard at work.
- Roo, dear. - Hi, Mama.
I thought you might like a break from what you're doing.
What exactly are you doing?
We're gettin' ready for Easter.
Is that... a rock?
Well, we were all out of eggs.
So we're hunting for Easter rocks instead.
My goodness, you've certainly been busy.
We're practising, so when Tigger gets back...
we'll be ready to go on our Easter egg hunt.
Guess you could call it spring training.
Look, Mama! We even made new decorations.
The old decorations kinda got broken by Rabbit.
So, when does the official celebration begin?
Just as soon as Tigger gets back from Rabbit's.
There he is!
Tigger!
Did ya talk to him, Tigger? Did ya?
Yeah, we kinda sorta talked.
So, we're gonna have Easter now, right, Tigger?
Tigger?
Well, it's probably best to get right to the point...
in the most briefest...
and directificated manner possibibble...
so, the answer is no.
Does that mean Rabbit's still not happy?
But why?
Well, you see, when we did...
the Eastery egg hunt without him...
we took away Rabbits's most special Eastery thing of all.
So now I'll never see my Easter honey pot.
Or my very special Easter basket.
Or my fluffy bunny ears.
Or my strippity stripety Eastery egg, either.
I'm really sorry, Roo boy.
There's gotta be something we can do...
right?
Why, of course there is.
Heh. We just have to think of it first.
Think, think.
There you are, Rabbit.
Welcome back to the present.
We've been waiting for you.
Home at last.
This isn't my house.
What on earth...
Those look like Easter decorations.
Where am I?
This is Roo's house.
So it is.
I must've stopped on the wrong page.
You stopped here on purpose.
Why did you do that?
Why don't you see for yourself?
'Cause what I like most
About Easter
Is the way we show our pals
We care
For the fun never ends
When you give to your friends
And you share
Feel like a cookie before bedtime?
No, thanks, Mama.
Well... OK.
Maybe just one.
Is that a picture of Rabbit?
It's wonderful, Roo.
He looks really happy.
That's 'cause I drew him like that.
I'm sorry you didn't get to have your Easter egg hunt today.
I'm more sorry for Rabbit. He must be really, really sad.
When Rabbit stopped being the Easter bunny...
he lost his favourite thing of all.
I wish I could make Rabbit happy...
for real.
I'd say Rabbit's very lucky to have you as a friend.
Night, Mama.
Good night, dear.
When I share
This Easter day
With you
That's not my fault.
I'm supposed to be the Easter bunny.
If they'd just listen, if they'd follow orders...
do what I say...
but no, no.
Oh, dear.
This is going to be more difficult than I thought.
Well, sometimes a narrator has to do...
what a narrator has to do.
Rabbit.
- Rabbit! - What?
What? Who's there?
It is l...
the narrator.
What do you want?
And why are you talking like that?
There's something I'd like you to see.
This better be good.
Where am I?
Where are you taking me?
These are the pages that have not yet been written.
Welcome to your future, Rabbit.
Oh, my! It's lovely!
Yes, it's spring cleaning day.
You've finally got your wish.
It's all been done exactly the way you want.
It's perfect.
I thought you might be pleased.
Well, where is everyone?
Late as usual, I suppose.
Late? Oh, goodness no. They're gone, Rabbit.
- Everyone moved away. - Moved away?
Without telling me? This is ridiculous.
I'll go get them right now.
Why would they do a thing like that?
No one leaves the Hundred Acre Wood without telling me.
I mean, that's just preposterous.
Pooh? Pooh bear?
Where are you, Pooh?
Wait. I know. He must be at Piglet's.
Piglet? Pooh bear?
Piglet, where are you?
I thought for sure they'd be here.
Eeyore?
Tigger!
Tigger, it's me... Rabbit!
Where is everyone?
Roo.
Roo? Roo?
Roo?
I don't understand.
Roo, who was so looking forward to...
Spring cleaning day, was it?
No.
Easter.
What have I done?
Where are all my friends?
Friends, you say?
You certainly didn't treat them like friends.
Don't you remember?
I'm sorry, but I'm the Easter bunny...
so I make the rules.
It isn't fun, it's Easter.
I told you exactly what to do, and you didn't do any of it!
You see, Rabbit?
You never thought about what your friends wanted.
All you ever did was think of yourself.
No, I didn't!
Did I?
It looks as if you got what you wanted.
Now you can always have things your way.
No! That's not what I want!
Narrator, you said that the pages of the future...
haven't been written yet.
So, does that mean these words can be changed?
Please!
Tell me I still have time to change!
No, it's not too late! It can't be.
I'll be a good friend. Yes. That's it. I can change.
I'll get their special Easter things.
I'll give them Easter! I will!
It's not too late!
No!
What?
It's morning.
I don't understand.
Was it all just a bad dream?
The box.
Please, let it be a dream.
They're here! They're still here!
Look at that!
That means there's still time!
I can change! I can change!
I want to jump like a jackrabbit!
I'm as giddy as a schoolbunny!
Wait a second! I'm having a brainstorm!
It's brilliant, inspired...
absitively, posolutely electrified!
I'm starting to sound like Tigger.
Lucky me!
They won't believe it's true, I know exactly what to do
We're gonna sing, we're gonna laugh
We're gonna dance, ha ha ha ha
I'm gonna bring us all together for the grandest Easter ever
No, I can't believe I got another chance
'Cause this is how it will be done
Now I'm having fun, now I'm out of control
I love it, hip hooray
It's Easter day
And it's gonna be the grandest of them
The biggest, grandest Easter of them all
That's it!
I know what we gotta do.
- Bye, Mama! - Roo, where are you going?
I know how to make Rabbit happy again!
Just a smackerel more.
Pooh! Wake up!
What about breakfast?
No time! We've got a job to do!
- Wake up, Piglet! - Who's there?!
Hello, Piglet.
Rise and shine, Eeyore!
I'm shinin'.
Come on, Tigger! We gotta spring into action!
So, where are we springin' to?
We're makin' Rabbit happy!
Who turned out the lights?
Knock, knock, Mama!
Oh, dear.
Breakfast!
This is no time to dilly-dally.
Let's get to work!
There. All done.
It's really quite nice, don't you think?
I just hope Rabbit thinks so, too.
Why don't you ask him yourself?
Gasp!
What is the meaning of this?
Hi, Rabbit.
We just wanted to say...
we're sorry we ruined your Eas...
Don't say the "E" word, little buddy.
What did you say?
Springity cleanin' day!
We're sorry we ruined...
"Eas..." I distinctly heard him say "Eas..."
Now what could he possibly have meant by that?
Were you about to say... Easter?!
Dear!
Well, I have something to say about that.
You can't have Easter!
Well...
What I mean is, you can't have Easter...
without all this.
It wouldn't be Easter without your stripedy egg, Tigger.
Or your honey pot, Pooh.
And I believe this is your lovely basket, Piglet.
And Eeyore, here are your fluffy bunny ears.
And I even made you a tail to match.
Gettin' attached to it already.
And Roo.
Didn't think I'd forgotten you, did you?
I believe I owe you...
an Easter egg hunt.
No way.
Yes... way.
I know it's a little late...
but happy Easter, Roo.
Wow!
Happy Easter, everyone!
What the dickens... and I do mean "Dickens"...
is goin' on here?
What's going on here? Easter! That's what!
Now, Tigger, ahem, I thought perhaps you might like...
to lead the Easter egg hunt.
- But, Rabbit... - No buts.
I'm the Easter bunny, and I make the rules...
and rule number one is...
there aren't any rules about Easter.
Now go, go have fun! Go, go, go!
Everyone, wait!
You can't have Easter!
What I mean is...
You can't have Easter...
without this.
Is that my Easter bunny hat?
For our one and only Easter bunny.
Oh, Rabbit!
Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!
I came here this morning...
to give you a very special Easter...
but you've given me the grandest Easter ever.
Now, what do you say we go hunt some Easter eggs?
- Think you can teach me? - Yeah, come on!
First, you sneak up on 'em...
and then you bounce!
Pooh bear, what happened to Rabbit?
Well, I would like to explain, but I can't.
You see, Rabbit isn't who he was on the holiday that wasn't...
and he is who he wasn't on the holiday that was...
so there you have it... if you see what I mean.
Which we don't.
Oh, well. What I mean is, he's the Easter bunny.
'Cause what I like most about Easter
Is the way we show our pals that we care
For the fun never ends when you give to your friends
And you share the wonder
Of a bright and sunny honey of an Easter
With painted eggs and jellybeans, too
- Of all the fun and neat stuff - The candy and the sweet stuff
My favourite Easter wish will come true
When we share this Easter day
With you
I just love a hoppy ending.
And so, they all hopped off together...
on this grandest Easter ever in the Hundred Acre Wood.
B.B.F. N... bye-bye for now!
