[Music]
Once Upon an orphanage my life was a
near tragic State
I longed to find a brighter place
somewhere full of love and grace I dream
of fields with a cool Ocean Breeze a
home for my own family
when I got my wish I pinched myself to
make sure this home was real
they said for a boy but then I was a
girl my dreaming had just let me down
again if I came as a queen this long
ebony hairs and maybe they'd feel I was
worth it for them I'm a good worker in
spite of My Talking I belong to belong
here for all of my life don't send me
away without seeing what I see
everything I touch is full of delights
I'll do my best to not let you down I
can imagine a world full of joy just
give me your hand
you'll find that I have something
worthwhile just let me stay here and
I'll love you forever I promise a life
full of smiles
foreign
[Music]
oh dear we tried not to interrupt your
afternoon nap hello a feather falling
could wake me when there's berries about
[Music]
the last time Marilla made blackberry
pie she had to fill half the pastry with
apples that you and Diana too she helped
me pick every last Berry behind the barn
then Diana perhaps you would care to
stay for Sunday supper what's that in
your fingers Matthew Cuthbert
explain the ink it's very messy never
seen purple ink before
[Music]
the big news today you know that old
shipwreck at Curtis point a pirate ship
we're so
well they've just found the captain's
Journal rolled up in a bottle and washed
ashore how scintillating think of it the
last words of a captain despairing as
his ship goes down what does it say says
here the captain's last entry was about
a treasure his crew had hidden near
Heavenly treasure hidden treasure I can
hardly believe my ears follow what they
printed here and you just might find it
my dear brother
you never change I remember when you
were all of seven returning from the
forest purple to the elbows with a
bellyache to boot well I'm off the plow
oh Diana I'd do anything to find that
treasure we might have our very own
treasure map right in this newspaper
article exactly this is the key to our
terrarium
come on
[Music]
let's see a hammer that looks useful and
a blanket very important in case it gets
cold cold uh how long will we be as
enterprising explorers we must be
prepared for all possibilities
I suppose
won't Matthew miss any of this we'll be
back before he needs it
and
[Music]
that's everything
onward h*
aren't we forgetting something
Diana with these back-breaking burdens
how could we need anything else
of course our map to the treasure here
we go
[Music]
yes you know
I've been in this Forest a hundred times
and I've never seen a treasure that's
because we weren't looking
now that we're on an exotic Mission
doesn't the forest hold a thrilling
mystery
I only hope that the forest doesn't hold
any great collection of uh pirates
pirates yes or uh treasure Hunters yes
or even bugs
they're not exactly my favorite thing
you know I've asked ye blood sucking
piss
fear not Diana I hereby nominate myself
and surely as the Explorer to deal with
bugs on this Mission well that's some
relief
now shall we uncover this mystery we
shall
whatever do you think we'll find in that
Treasure Chest silver dollars gold coins
I hope it's not some creepy crawly thing
nesting inside not if they sealed it
tight
how will we open the lock I'm sure we'll
find something in our bags
I'll say
think of it
parading down Main Street brandishing
gold and silver will be famous I might
even get to write an article in the
Avonlea Chronicle The Adventures of two
Brave explorers Brave
yeah I don't seem very brave to me Peg
bone we didn't mean to bother you we're
trying to intrude it's not my Forest
there's a nice one
the woods contain all sorts Spirits
Forest goblins and the like the good
thing you bumped into me you're not one
of them who knows what might have
happened then Peg Bowen what are you
going to do with with
these were
why am i Fishing
now dearies look where you're going and
remember where you've been you're here
ah
[Music]
I'm sure Pig was just telling stories
let's find the treasure and get out of
here now let's see it says
my trusty sailor lugged the precious
trunk through a thick forest oh we're
certainly deep in the forest until we
found a patch of birch and pine trees
these are Merchant Pine we followed the
sun until we came to a rock with strange
markings
from there my crew found a creek running
through the brush I don't see it
my mates and I followed the creek until
we found a small Mossy Enclave uh let's
try this way Enclave
what delicious word I must use it in my
newspaper story now what it says to look
for a butterfly butterfly yes near the
water was a flock of colorful
butterflies which led us to the
Treasure's hiding spot look
oh
maybe it will lead us to the rest
[Music]
maybe that's not the butterfly we were
supposed to go after where are we anyway
wherever it is it sure is spooky
nasty trolls did exist like Peg Bowen
said this is surely where their Lair
would be
I only said if there were trolls what
was that Justin Farmer's dog I'm sure
does this article say anything about how
to get back we're not going back now
we're so close how do you know we must
be don't lose sight of the treasure who
cares years I want to go home Diana
oh
oh and I'm sorry no it is I who should
be filled with remorse it wasn't giving
us all that much help anyway how will we
get home now no one's gonna come and
help us we we didn't even tell anyone
where we were going my mistake I know
I'd sure hate to miss marilla's pie
that's the least of our worries
well why don't we split up and do some
exploring on our own alone
is that wise with both of us looking
we'll find our way back that much sooner
guess so we'll meet back at at that big
old tree with the trunk so gnarled it
looks like a scary gargoyle oh
Diana that was an infinitely insensitive
thing for me to say banish the thought
from your mind now we'll meet back here
in 15 minutes good luck yes
good luck to you too
[Music]
an Explorer would find her way back by
uh
looking for Clues like Footprints I
wonder oh thank goodness I put this in
my pocket
oh
oh my come come explore Diana you can't
find Footprints if you don't look
[Music]
okay I looked I
look and and
I should have known better than to
describe that tree like a gargoyle
she is easily frightened after all
unlike me
now if I were Diana I'd see those rocks
in sync they looked like a frightful
monster about to pounce
but that's nonsense even so I'll just
head over
this way
[Music]
I were Diana I think those were eyes
watching me in the bushes
oh
it's time to find Diana
which way to our meeting place this
weight or that
oh no
think I'm lost
[Music]
I'm not afraid
oh that that's just an owl I'm not
afraid of owls
I'm just going to imagine it's somebody
who will will point my way home
yes someone to tell me how to get back
and that sound is simply uh
a snake
oh dear oh my I seem to be stuck like a
helpless tortoise here allow me how very
kind and who are you I'm a man of Green
Gables
[Music]
I am Marcus polis cartographer
extraordinaire
cartographer of the first degree
cartographers
I see and
you make
carts
how delightful
no no my dear I make maps cart is the
French word for maps you see and making
Maps is precisely what I do why this is
sublimely perfect I'm here exploring
with my friend Diana and we seem to have
brought everything but a good map jolly
good I'm your man that is once I've made
the map
how long will that take not so long if
you would care to assist me it would be
my honor very well rightio
onward and forever forward then
March March March March March
all right I think I'll start in this
direction
if only I could find my pencil
here it is
surely good all right
on second thought maybe I should start
in this direction ah yes
much better now where did I put
why you are good aren't you
foreign
on the other hand excuse me Mr polis you
may call me Marcus Mr Marcus it's just
well I have people waiting for me when
do you think you might be done my dear
girl map making is a precise and
exacting craft I can't appreciate that
but is this going to take more than an
hour an hour it will take more than a
week but I don't have a week well then
I'm sorry my dear girl but I won't be of
much help ah
you really are a tortoise surely I can
help make it faster all right find my
compass and tell me which way is North I
can do that
Matthew taught me
well he sounds like a smart fellow he
also taught me what to do if you don't
have a compass with you good gracious
what did he say you look up and use the
sun it rises in the East and sets in the
west so you always know where you are
depending on what time it is oh he must
be of polis extraction no it's only
common sense
I only wish I'd use some of it when we
first got lost well I'm finished here so
we're done Heaven's to Betsy girl no no
no no no no I have calculations and
permutations I have adjustments and
refinements where Miles
Away no
bad cold hey fever an occupational
hazard
I was wrong to rush you indeed you were
I suppose map making can't be rushed a
rule of thumb for many Enterprises dear
girl I don't understand if you stopped
your rushing and thought more carefully
you'd be sure to find your Green Gables
you mean use the sun the sun is but one
tool at your fingertips you're right I'd
forgotten Matthew's orienteering tricks
well then Cheerio now if I could only
find my pencil
foreign
I suppose that's just it I need to think
clearly and not be afraid
[Music]
footsteps
footsteps I'll just follow them back now
that's thinking clearly
I lost you forever thinking terrible
thoughts like that won't help our
situation
I
had an awful time
getting late I'm hungry and I mean Eat
My Life by all these bugs oh poor Diana
but first things first let's get some
food what about berries
without berries
Matthew used to pick blackberries in the
forest look
are some right there
what
yummy
Matthew's right they're even better
right off the bush
that's better I can think much happier
thoughts on a full stomach
now Matthew once told me you can use the
Sun as a compass Green Gables is west of
the forest and since the sun sets in the
west if we want to get home we follow
the Sun
now where say isn't that running water
it must be the creek we passed before
this way
[Music]
what's that
our knapsacks we're on the right truck
but which way from here remember what
Peg said look where you're going and
remember where you've been I'll use my
hair ribbons to Mark our way
so if we get lost again we can retrace
our steps what a noble sacrifice
too bad I didn't think of this before
well we weren't thinking clearly were we
where are you you've disappeared right
behind you
but where are you
[Music]
I see you found me oh here all our clear
thinking isn't gonna get us very far in
this fog I prefer to view it as our
greatest challenge yet listen
do you hear that
of course it's fog Diana it hasn't
affected my hearing well it may be foggy
down here but it's utterly clear up
there let's find something to climb
be too difficult
almost there
[Music]
I can see the top of the Avonlea Church
staple hooray
this way we're close
[Music]
good thing we're out of that fog except
I fear the worst has happened what I've
let us horribly afraid oh will you ever
forgive me it's a dead end what will we
do don't panic I've been tying ribbons
all this time remember we just retrace
our steps to that fork in the path and
go the other route
good clear thinking
we took another pass but now nothing
looks familiar I have an idea
what on Earth are you doing I'm
following Peg Bowen's advice and looking
where we're going and what I see is an
ant as you know I wouldn't usually find
this ant appealing but this end happens
to be carrying an ooey gooey blackberry
and and the next ant is also carrying a
Blackberry and the Ant after that
bit of pastry which means they're coming
from marilla's pie cooling on the
windowsill follow the trail of ants and
we'll be back in no time Diana I don't
believe I've ever witnessed such
staggering Brilliance you know bugs
aren't so creepy when you really look at
them wait till Matthew hears about this
orienteering trick
it sure is a long way for an ant to go
for a Blackberry
I told you marilla's pie was good
[Music]
there it is look Diana
we did it still it's a shame we never
found that treasure
it says here at long last my crew laid
our treasure to rest near a meadow a
spot with grass and trees alike
colorful butterfly just like in the
captain's Journal
sure
so close
dare we investigate my fellow Explorer
absolutely
butterfly
and nothing else
yeah we had an exciting time next time
I'll start by reading the whole article
before heading out
and
[Music]
the crocodiles below
your grip is listening hang on tight
and what happened to finding the buried
treasure
we're training for more challenging
exploits well don't let me interrupt I
have a date with the last piece of
marilla's pie
the last piece because it's the ants
made away with one pie there's less to
go around in my experience explorers are
in great need of sustenance yes for
their next adventure
and it's a good thing I brought two
extra Forks isn't it
[Music]
laughs
[Music]
[Applause]
