(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

Let's hear it for Mira

Royal Detective

Mira, Mira, Mira

Mira, Mira, Mira

Hey!

Everybody knows I love

A mystery, big or small

I look close and then

I help my friends

There's nothing

She can't solve

Finding clues is what I do

So the Queen appointed you

Now my job's

A dream come true

I'm Mira

Royal Detective

Let's hear it for Mira

Royal Detective

Mira, Mira, Mira

Mira, Mira, Mira

Hey!

We'll take in the world

With a whole new perspective

Our small and mighty hero

We'll find the answers

Let's go

Let's hear it for Mira

Royal Detective

MIRA: "The Mystery of

the Jalpur Jammers."

MIKKU: Excuse us!

CHIKKU: Royal Detective

coming through, people!

MIRA: Whoops! Sorry, Auntie!

-Uh, Mira!

-Why the rush?

I need to get

to the detective agency fast.

I'm having lunch with Papa today

and I'm late. So late!

Then we definitely need to hurry.

Lunch is the most important meal

of the day.

Along with breakfast,

dinner, oh, and snack time.

-(ECHOING)

-Do you guys hear that?

That is one loud parakeet.

Whoa! Personally, I think that bird

could use a few singing lessons.

Actually, guys, that sound isn't the bird.

Hear how it's kind of echoey?

That means it's probably

coming from the caves. Over there.

Uncle, watch out!

Sorry, Uncle. Huh, that was a close one.

MIKKU: Tiffin time!

-Papa?

-BOTH: Uncle?

That's odd.

Papa never misses our tiffin lunch dates.

Especially not kheer halwa day.

He has such a sweet tooth.

We can help you with the halwa.

CHIKKU: You wouldn't want it to get cold!

Guys, look! Papa's turban.

That means he must have been here.

But where is he now?

Did you look inside the turban?

No, not in here.

I don't know where Papa is, but we're

going to find him. We're on the case.

Mira, stop everything.

You have to help me.

Meena, what's going on?

I can't find Mummy. She asked me

to stop by the boutique to help

with the sale this afternoon.

But when I got there, she was gone!

Hmm. I can't find Papa either.

Uncle Sahil too? Where could they be?

I don't know, but we'll find them.

We're on the case. Again.

We're on the case

We're on the case

We're on the case

Look a little closer

With your magnifying glass

Open up your notebook

Get your coat

And badge on fast

Ask all the questions

Follow your senses

Focus on every clue

BOTH: Ooh.

Listen for answers

Find what you're after

That's what detectives do

We're on the case

We're on the case

We're on the case

Let's see if Papa left a note for us.

Hmm. There's something here

I've never seen before.

Maybe it belongs to him.

What is it?

Meena, isn't it obvious?

It's a mongoose necklace!

I'm not sure what it is,

but it could be a clue.

Let's go to the boutique

and see what else we can find.

-Whoa, what a mess!

-What happened?

It's for the sale, guys.

So, Meena, you came by the boutique

to help. Then what?

I ran into Mrs. Kapadia.

She saw Mummy leaving the boutique,

but didn't know where she was going.

All right. Let's look for clues.

And we'll help you clean.

-Meena, come look at this.

-MEENA: What?

Chikku, look! A wooden mongoose earring

to go with your mongoose necklace.

So chic.

Meena, is this something

you sell in the boutique?

No, I've never seen this before.

Then it might be another clue.

I'll hang on to it.

Where to now, Mira?

We still haven't found Auntie or Uncle.

They must be somewhere in town.

We've looked for goats before,

but never for grown-ups.

-Wait, I'm the oldest one here.

-Okay.

Which means I'm practically a grown-up,

just like Mummy and Uncle Sahil.

That makes me a grown-up expert.

All right, grown-up expert.

Where do you think they are?

Well, let's think.

What do grown-ups like to do?

-Talk about the weather?

-Snore!

No! Drink chai.

They do like to drink chai.

Maybe they went upstairs to have some.

MEENA: I checked. No one was there.

Okay. Then, maybe they went to

the chai cart. We should look there.

Wait. I know we're on a case right now,

but you two are helping me

with this mess later.

-What?

-The place looks great!

-(ECHOING)

-MEENA: What is that noise?

Not again!

CHIKKU: It's Tinku.

-Tinku isn't making those sounds.

-(TINKU GRUNTS)

We need to figure out who is.

(LAUGHS) One mystery at a time, please.

Okay, here's the chai cart.

Hi, Kamala. We're on a case.

Have you seen my mom or Uncle Sahil?

No. Have you seen my mom?

Wait. You don't know

where your mom is either?

No. I came to help her with the chai rush,

that's our busiest time of day.

She took off and said she'd be back soon,

but it's been over an hour.

First Uncle Sahil, then Mummy,

and now Kamala's mom? What is going on?

Don't worry. They can't be far.

We're going to find everyone.

Your mom too, Kamala.

Chikku, you know what that means.

BOTH: Look a little closer

with your magnifying glass.

-Guys, we're already on the case.

-CHIKKU: Oh. Right.

-Right.

-Let's look around the cart for clues.

MIKKU AND CHIKKU: On it!

What's this?

Kamala, does this look familiar?

No, but my mom did put those bowls out

before she left.

-You know what this is, Chikku?

-A mongoose belt.

Actually, it looks like

a metal string from a musical instrument.

-Which instrument?

-Why is it here?

I'm not sure.

But I know who we should ask.

Joshi sir. Let's go to the music shop.

MIKKU: The music shop!

CHIKKU: Joshi sir,

your favorite music students are coming!

MIRA: Joshi sir?

KAMALA: Where is he?

Dhruv's here. Maybe he knows.

Dhruv, where's Joshi sir?

Uh, hi, everyone. He's not here.

I'm looking after the shop for him.

And getting some practice in

on my ravanhatta.

Well, how does that help us

find our parents?

Your parents?

Joshi sir just left with them.

-ALL: What?

-No way.

-Do you know where they were going?

-Nope. They didn't say.

Mira, what is happening?

Wait a second. Check it out.

Dhruv, this string looks exactly

like the string on your ravanhatta. See?

Yep, it is.

Joshi sir sells them. They're right here.

Huh.

The cushion we found earlier

looks just like these.

It's a base ring.

It goes under the ghatam.

-Hey, Dhruv.

-Watch us practice.

(PLAYING MUSIC)

Check it out. This looks like

the piece of wood we found earlier.

That's a pick.

You use it to play the rabab.

Let me get my hands on this rabab.

Watch and learn, people.

(PLAYING MUSIC)

Guys, we're on a case.

We're not supposed to be playing music.

-But we can't stop.

-We are in the zone now.

I think I know where our parents are.

Let's think this through.

At each place our parents

were supposed to be,

we found a base ring, a pick and a string,

all things that are used

to play musical instruments.

What if our parents went somewhere

to play music with these instruments?

-No, really?

-Mind-blowing.

Do I not know my mother at all?

No way, Mira.

Our parents do not play instruments.

There has to be another explanation.

Only one way to find out.

We need to ask them.

How? We still don't know where they are.

Maybe we do.

-(ECHOING)

-MIRA: Those strange echoing noises.

I think it's our parents

playing musical instruments in the caves.

And they didn't tell us?

Why would they do that?

Wait. I know. Our parents didn't tell us

because they're at an event for grown-ups.

No kids invited.

MIRA: That would make sense.

If kids aren't allowed,

then how can we go to the caves?

Kamala, that's not a problem.

I'm a grown-up expert.

I know exactly what we need to do.

-MEENA: There. Perfect.

-Great disguise, Meena. Whoa!

I know. You look just like an auntie.

Whoa! Hold still.

I'm trying!

Meena, where is your disguise?

I don't need one.

I'm practically a grown-up.

They'll let me in. Easy.

Hey, Meena. Meena!

-What?

-Do we look like a mongoose uncle?

Sure, Chikku. Sure.

All right, grown-ups.

Into the caves. Chalo, chalo! Let's

Whoa! Slow down. Whoa, whoa!

KAMALA: Sorry, Mira.

Let's try that again.

-KAMALA: See anything, Mira?

-No, not yet.

I hear something over there.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Mira, you were right.

Stop! We need to to take it again

from the top.

Someone was off count.

Would that someone be you, Pushpa?

Papa? I mean,

fellow grown-ups, what's going on here?

-Who are you?

-(GRUNTS)

Sahil, that's Mira and Kamala.

Oh, of course.

(CHUCKLES) I knew that.

What are you all doing here?

We've been looking everywhere for you.

Papa, you missed our lunch date.

Mama, the chai rush starts soon.

And, Mummy, the sale.

We're so sorry.

We lost track of time.

We were only supposed

to be gone for a bit.

Does anyone want to explain to us

what is going on here?

All right. We are in a band.

We're called The Jalpur Jammers.

The Jalpur Jammers?

I signed us up to play

at the music festival next month.

So we come up here to practice.

-Wow!

-No words, people.

I never would have guessed.

I really don't know my mother.

I just I can't get over

Mummy, you play an instrument?

Darling, I played

the rabab when I was little.

Quite well, actually.

Decided to start playing again.

Grown-ups can have hobbies too, you know.

BOTH: They can?

Mama, you should have

told us about this.

Yeah, Papa, I think

it's great that you're all in a band.

I am shocked and need a moment.

But I am happy for you.

I think these belong to you.

You must have forgotten them.

How many times have I told you all,

if you wanna play smart,

bring an extra part.

ALL: Our apologies, Joshiji.

-Looks like the case

-is closed.

We can't wait to hear you play.

I think that can be arranged.

MIKKU: Listen up, Jalpur!

Are you all ready to hear

the best grown-up band

this side of the Jalpur River?

(ALL CHEERING)

BOTH: Give it up for The Jalpur Jammers!

Ek, do, teen!

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Let me hear you, Jalpur!

(ALL CHEERING)

(SINGING) When the music starts to play

All the years are swept away

We're young and it's like

nothing's ever changed

Every time I hear the beat

From my head down to my feet

I feel just like I did back in the day

Jamming with my friends

It takes me back again when I hear that

Can't stop it

We'll rock it

Still got it

Can't stop it

We'll rock it

Still got it

When the music starts to play

All the years are swept away

We're young and

Of course, I know I look the same.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Every time I hear the beat

It's like I'm dancing light on my feet!

I feel just like I did back in the day

When I hear that

Yeah!

(ALL LAUGHING AND CHEERING)

I'm so proud of you, Papa.

Yeah, we still got it, all right.

MIRA: Yeah, Papa!

MAN: Yeah!

MIRA: "The Mystery of the Blue Jewel."

MIKKU: Mira, we don't look fancy enough

to go to a royal party.

Yeah, my whiskers aren't even combed.

What's the occasion, anyway?

It's a celebration

for Queen Shanti's brother, King Devinder.

He's visiting Jalpur today.

VEER: Hello, Mira. Mongooses.

Hello, Prince Veer.

Greetings, Your Highness.

Well, good day, Prince.

-What's in the box, Prince Veer?

-Snacks?

Snacks? Please.

It's a surprise gift

from my uncle to my mother, the Queen.

It's the Blue Jewel.

-Oh, I'm excited to see it.

-WOMAN: You should be.

The Blue Jewel is extremely rare

and priceless.

Yes, and we would know.

These are my uncle's jewel experts.

I'm showing them where to set up

for the party.

Nice to meet you. I'm Mira.

What exactly do jewel experts do?

We examine the jewels.

Really get to know them.

Yes. We live and breathe jewels.

Our time is filled

with important royal jewel activities.

Jewel parties, jewel boat rides,

jewels everywhere.

Now that is the kind of jewelry

fancy mongooses

would wear to a royal party.

Take these as a gift

from our kingdom to yours.

Oh, so special!

I did not expect that to happen.

Our kingdom thanks you.

VEER: Mira, you'll find my uncle

and Neel in the Grand Hall.

I believe Neel is showing him

one of his little maps or something.

This way, jewel experts.

BOTH: Yes, Your Highness.

This map is incredible, Neel.

I look forward

to my personal tour of the tunnels.

Oh, I can't wait to show you, Uncle.

Your Majesty, welcome.

Hello, Mira, the Royal Detective.

Nice jewelry, Mikku and Chikku.

Oh! This old thing?

Ah, this you mean?

Just a little something

we threw on for tonight.

Mira, Mikku, Chikku.

I am so glad you could join us

for our special party.

We're honored to be here, Queen Shanti.

And we're very interested

to see this Blue Jewel.

Although, personally,

I prefer a pink jewel.

Mikku! Chikku!

That was supposed to be a surprise.

Uh-oh! Sorry.

Oopsies. (CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)

I did not hear a thing.

I'm gonna freshen up

and I'll see you all at the party.

MIKKU AND CHIKKU: Bye!

Not to worry, Mikku and Chikku.

The Queen will still be surprised.

Now, let's make sure the Blue Jewel

is all set up.

Way ahead of you, Uncle.

I've already taken

your royal jewel experts to the library.

Jewel experts?

Veer, I didn't bring

any jewel experts with me.

You You didn't?

Uh, are you sure?

They had gold jewelry, and they certainly

acted like jewel experts.

So who could they be?

Let's go to the library and find out.

VEER: Jewel experts?

Hello?

They're not here!

(GASPS) And the Blue Jewel is gone, too.

It was on this stand.

-Oh, no.

-What?

-This is bad!

-This is so bad.

We must lock down the palace.

I will inform Ram Singh Ji.

I can't believe I let this happen.

Veer, don't worry.

We'll get the Blue Jewel

back in time for the party.

We're on the case!

We're on the case

We're on the case

We're on the case

Look a little closer

With your magnifying glass

Open up your notebook

Get your coat

And badge on fast

Ask all the questions

Follow your senses

Focus on every clue

BOTH: Ooh.

Listen for answers

Find what you're after

That's what detectives do

We're on the case

We're on the case

We're on the case

Veer, where was

the last place you saw the box?

Right here, on the top of this stand.

MIRA: Hmm.

Well, there are gold flakes

all over the ground.

Any idea where they came from?

I've never seen them before.

Ah! Chikku!

Your fur is covered in gold flakes.

What did you get into?

What did I get into?

Your fur is flaky too.

It looks like the gold

on your necklaces is flaking off.

What? Real jewelry

isn't supposed to flake.

CHIKKU: This stuff is fake?

Those flakes are the same

as the ones on the ground.

So they must have come

from the jewel experts.

Why would jewel experts

have fake flaking jewelry?

Veer, they aren't real jewel experts.

They took the box, remember?

Oh!

I'm seething with betrayal.

Right there with you, Prince Veer.

Betrayal.

RUBI: (GRUMBLES)

There are flakes everywhere.

Sounds like the same thing

happened to Rubi.

Let's go talk to her.

The fake jewelry trouble continues.

Dun-dun-dun!

Rubi, what happened?

I remarked on the lovely color

of this necklace

to those visiting jewel experts.

They kindly gave one to me,

but then it started flaking

all over my outfit.

This is the same kind of jewelry

they gave Mikku and Chikku.

I was going to wear it tonight.

How disappointing.

Ah, we've been there.

It's a stinging disappointment.

Wait a second.

This looks like the wagon

the jewel experts had with them earlier.

Ugh! More flakes!

Why more flakes?

A broken stick?

What's this for?

Good question. I'll hold onto it.

It could be a clue.

Rubi, did you see

which way those experts went?

Yes, they headed toward the kitchen.

VEER: Ha! Case closed, Mira.

Every exit is guarded.

I assure you, there is no way

they could have escaped.

See, I'm sure the thieves

are right around this corner

being held by our fine palace guards.

Uh, Veer, it's just the guards.

No one else is here.

I see that. Thank you, Neel.

Look, there's another stick.

Like the one we found before.

Here you go.

It's also covered in those gold flakes.

And there are more on the ground.

Let's follow them.

MIKKU: I'm gonna give those jewels experts

a piece of my mind.

CHIKKU: Me, too.

They're gonna have two mongoose minds

to deal with.

I don't see them here.

Neel, why is your great grandmother's

mechanical tree moving?

It can't turn on by itself, can it?

No. Someone must have turned it on.

Why are we talking about a tree?

We're on a case, remember?

(PEOPLE SCREAMING)

-BOTH: What was that?

-Let's check it out. Come on.

MIKKU: Well, well, well!

If it isn't the jewel experts.

CHIKKU: You mean the fake jewel experts.

Aah! How do you stop this thing?

I do not like being upside down.

(BOTH SCREAMING)

It's those bandits, they were just

pretending to be jewel experts.

You lost your bald spot.

-Don't just stand there.

-Oh, help us down!

We're not helping you. You're thieves.

WOMAN: But I have the jewel.

Oh, yes. Good point.

Neel, help them down.

If we help you down,

you have to give us the box.

And personally apologize to me

many, many times.

WOMAN: Fine. We'll do it.

We'll give you the box.

MAN: And apologize. Just get us down.

NEEL: All right.

(GASPS IN RELIEF)

Okay, hand over the box.

-No way! We stole it.

-Fair and square.

-Hey!

-I demand that you stop!

Well, I demand that you slip.

(ALL SHOUTING)

Whoa!

No! They got away. Again.

Come on. That way.

Where did they go?

I really messed this up.

What kind of future king hands

a priceless jewel to thieves?

Veer, don't worry. We'll find them.

Mira, check it out. Another piece of wood

with gold flakes on it.

Huh, that's the third piece we found.

Let's think this through.

If you put the three pieces

of wood together,

they make an oar, for a boat.

So maybe the bandits are trying

to escape with the jewel in a boat.

And if all the doors are locked,

there's only one way to escape the palace.

NEEL: Through the tunnels!

It's actually a pretty smart plan.

Yeah, I'm shocked.

So what are we going to do?

Well, I also have a plan.

Mikku, Chikku,

meet us down river in the tunnels.

BOTH: Will do, Mira.

Neel, we'll need to use your map

of the tunnels and your aqua rickshaw.

Got it. I'll look at the map.

Who wants to drive the aqua rickshaw?

As the future king of Jalpur,

naturally, I can handle

one of your little inventions.

VEER: Whoa!

(ALL EXCLAIMING)

What is wrong with this thing?

Veer, you actually need to steer.

Oh, well, why didn't you say so?

VEER: Uh, Neel, Mira,

which way should I go?

MIRA: Look, another broken oar.

They must have gone that way.

-There they are. And I see the box.

-VEER AND NEEL: Yes!

-Stop splashing me!

-It's called paddling.

We better catch up to them fast.

They're headed for the waterfall.

Turn around!

You're headed towards the waterfall.

Oh, Poonam, should we turn around?

No way! They're just trying

to scare us so we'll stop.

Keep paddling.

Aha. According to my map,

if we go that way,

we can catch up and cut them off.

Leave it to me, little brother.

MIRA: Mikku, Chikku,

are you ready for your part of the plan?

-MIKKU: Mira

-BOTH: We got this!

Hey, bandits, if you turn around now,

you won't go over the waterfall.

No way. Our plan is working brilliantly.

Okay, Mikku, do your thing!

MIKKU: Here I go.

My arms are getting tired.

I wish our oars didn't break.

See what happens when you buy cheap oars.

I told you to buy the nicer ones.

You told me, and I quote,

"Don't get anything fancy."

MIKKU: Hello, there.

CHIKKU: Missing anything?

(BOTH EXCLAIMING)

Oh, what happened to the box?

MIKKU: We stole it back!

CHIKKU: Fair and square.

MIRA: Nice work, Mikku and Chikku.

Uh, Veer, we better turn around

or we're going over the waterfall too!

What? That's not happening.

-(SCREAMING)

-Waterfall!

-Help us! We're sorry for all of it!

-It was her idea!

Hang tight. I gotcha.

-Phew! That was close.

-I'm exhausted.

VEER: Deputy Oosha,

you can take it from here.

(MOOS)

-Great Job.

-We did it.

MIKKU: The case of the missing

Blue Jewel

CHIKKU: is closed.

Safe and sound.

My dear sister, please accept this gift,

the beautiful Blue Jewel.

(GASPS)

MIRA: Amazing!

CHIKKU: That's incredible!

-Magnificent!

-(ALL EXCLAIMING)

Oh, Devinder, it's a perfect addition

to my Royal Butterfly House.

Thank you so much.

Mira. The case isn't closed yet.

Yeah. Someone replaced the Blue Jewel

with a blue butterfly.

Guys, the Blue Jewel is a butterfly.

BOTH: Oh!

Yes, and no one loves butterflies

like my dear sister Shanti.

We did all of that for a bug?

How was I supposed to know it was a bug?

(MOOS)

Mother, Uncle,

I'm very sorry this happened.

Veer, the important thing

is you did everything

in your power to make things right.

And that's what makes a great king.

The real heroes today are Mira,

Mikku and Chikku.

And how could I forget

my little brother Neel.

Thanks, Veer.

Mira, Mikku, Chikku,

Jalpur is lucky to have you.

It was our honor, Your Majesty.

Hey, butterfly, where are you going?

Come back.

-You're going to miss your party.

-Fly this way.

-Fly like us.

-Look at me.

I'm a beautiful butterfly. (LAUGHS)

CHIKKU: No, look at me.

I'm an even more beautiful butterfly.
