[bunniefuu]

[kids chanting] Wonder Pets, Wonder Pets.

We're on our way

to help a friend and save the day.

We're not too big, and we're not too tough.

But when we work together, we've got the right stuff.

Gooooooo, Wonder Pets.

Yay!

[bell ringing]

[woman #] Time to go now.

[girl #] Good-bye, Ming-Ming.

[boy] Can we play in the playground, Mom?

[woman #] It looks like it might rain, honey.

Maybe tomorrow.

[girl #] Bye-bye, Tuck.

[girl #] See you soon, Linny.

[footsteps]

[door shuts]

[bell tinkling]

Hey, Linny?

Yes, Ming-Ming?

When's the phone going to ring already?

I'm cravin' for some savin'.

I'm not sure, Ming-Ming.

[squirrel chattering]

I think I hear something.

[squirrel chattering]

A squirrel.

Hey, come back, baby squirrel.

I'm trying to rescue you.

I guess that squirrel isn't in trouble after all.

[thunder rumbling]

Here comes the rain.

I better go home.

Oh,

hello, bird family.

Anyone need to be rescued?

chirp! chirp!

No?

Okay.

Bye, birds.

Love your nest.

[squishing noise]

Uh-oh!

Phew.

Hmm, tree sap.

Very sticky.

Better not get it on me.

[squishing noise]

Too late.

Whoa!

My wings are stuck together.

I can't fly.

I'm stranded on the schoolhouse roof,

and it's about to rain.

[Ming-Ming over phone] Help! Help!

♪ I know that voice.

[Linny and Tuck] Ming-Ming?

I'm on the roof.

My wings are stuck together, and it's about to rain:

a triple thr*at.

Where are the wheels?

They're up on that shelf.

Good eye, Tuck.

Let's see; how can we get the wheels?

If Ming-Ming were here,

she could fly up and get them down.

Yeah, but she's stuck on the roof.

We'll have to get them down ourselves.

I'll lower the wheels down to you, Tuck,

and I'll put them in--

♪ a basket, a basket. ♪

♪ A basket, a basket. ♪

And I'll lower the basket down to you

[both] Ooooh.

It's kind of nice when it's just you and me,

huh, Linny?

Tuck, we're saving Ming-Ming.

I know.

Hop in the flyboat, Tuck.

We've got a duckling to save.

[Tuck] We are coming to save you, Ming-Ming Duckling.

[both cheering]

Watch out for that jump rope, Tuck.

Gooooo, Wonder Pets.

Yay!

[Linny] There's Ming-Ming.

What took you so long?

Sorry.

[Tuck] There's no place to land.

[Linny] We can't land on the roof, Ming-Ming,

so you'll have to jump into the flyboat.

No problem.

♪ Though I was stuck here on my own... ♪

Get ready to jump, Ming-Ming.

[Ming-Ming] ♪ My friends have come.

♪ I'm going...

home?

Or maybe not.

[Tuck] She can't jump with sap on her wings.

Don't worry, Ming-Ming.

We'll try something else.

Hmm, if we had Ming-Ming, she could help us

by flying onto the roof.

Yeah, our team's just not the same without her.

Are you talking about me?

[Linny] We'll be right with you, Ming-Ming.

There must be a way.

After all, we got the wheels down from the shelf

without Ming-Ming.

That's right.

We used...

♪ a basket, a basket. ♪

We can use a basket to get her down.

But where will we find a basket up here?

Hey, can I have an idea, even though I'm the stuck one?

Sure.

You're still part of our team.

A nest is like a basket for birds,

and there's a nest right behind you.

♪ A nest is a basket.

Great idea, Ming-Ming.

I'm helping to save myself.

Excuse me.

Could we please borrow your nest?

It would be a big help.

[chirping]

[Linny] Thank you, birds.

And to lower the nest,

we can use that jump rope on the swing set.

Homegrown celery is the best.

Ready to fly home, Wonder Pets?

[Tuck] Um, Linny, could we just go in through the window?
