[bunniefuu]

(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 Missing Mystery.

Mira, why exactly are we

putting flower petals on the ground?

They're for the class

I'm teaching today.

It's called

"How to Be a Detective."

My students are

going to learn

all the steps

to solve a mystery.

Aw! We want to be

in your class too.

You will be, Chikku.

You're going

to be my helpers.

-Expert detective helpers

-at your service!

Can you please

put some flower petals

leading to the base

of that lamppost?

You got it, Mira.

(HUMMING)

Perfect. These petals are going to be

the trail of clues for our class.

The trail continues!

Okay, this trail of petals

leads to the garden shop.

So what's the mystery

going to be?

I'm going to hide

this basket of hoops

and tell the class

it went missing.

Before it goes missing,

I'll take a hoop.

I'll take two.

-Hoopy hoop!

-Hoopy hoop!

Oopsie oops.

(LAUGHS) Come on, helpers.

We need to go

to the toy shop to hide the basket.

-Hop to it.

-Mongoose style.

Hi, Mrs. Noronha.

Hi, Dhruv.

-Hello, Mira.

-Hi, Mira.

Thanks for letting us help

with your detective class.

I'm wearing this special delivery hat,

just like you wanted.

Great. Dhruv is going to pretend

to be a bicycle delivery person.

He's supposed to deliver

the basket of hoops,

but the basket

goes missing.

Oh, I get it!

Dhruv messes up.

No, it'll only look

like Dhruv messes up.

And Mrs. Noronha is going to pretend

to be a very upset toy shop owner.

My hoops! My hoops!

What has become of my hoops?

Magnificent!

What a performance!

(BELL CHIMING)

Oh, hear that?

It's time to start class. Quick!

Let's hide the basket

behind that toy elephant.

I'm so excited.

I'm gonna go grab

a lassi at the chai shop.

I'll meet you back here.

-Bye.

-See you soon.

Come on, guys, let's head back

to the detective agency.

Sadia, Arvind, Manya,

welcome to my very first

"How to Be a Detective"

class.

Put your paws together

for the Dean of Detectives,

the Queen of Clues, Mira!

Give her some love, people!

There's nothing I love

more than solving mysteries.

And today, you're going to learn

how to solve one too.

-Whoo-hoo! Yes!

-That's so great.

I'm ready.

-(BLEATING)

-Pari, Bhavana!

This is no time

for a snack here.

In the middle of a class.

(BOTH GRUNT)

Hi, Mira. I'm teaching

a class too.

That's great, Pinky.

What kind of class?

I'm going to teach

my friends Pari and Bhavna

how to do one of

my world-famous

leap-jump-skip tricks

in the park.

Hey, Pari,

don't eat my clothes.

Pari, Bhavna,

remember from last class?

Flowers, food.

Clothes, not food.

Come on.

Bye, everyone.

ALL: Bye, Pinky!

Okay, students.

First, let's talk

detective tools.

When solving a case,

I have two tools I always use.

Ahem. My magnifying glass

and notebook.

We have some

for you today too.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

For you.

-For you, and for you.

-Wow!

Not a toy, people.

I repeat, not a toy.

Check it out!

We have our tools,

now all we need

is a mystery.

I wonder if anything has gone

missing around Jalpur today.

I said, "I wonder

"if anything has gone missing

around Jalpur today."

Psst, Mrs. Noronha!

That's your cue.

Oh, yes. Ahem.

My hoops! My hoops!

What has become

of my hoops?

What do you mean,

Mrs. Noronha?

I was expecting

a delivery of toy hoops at my shop.

They never arrived.

Looks like we have

a mystery to solve.

-We're on the case!

-Let's do it.

BOTH: Whoa, whoa.

Hold up, people!

Before I go

on a case,

I always sing

a special song,

and I need all of you

to join me.

It goes a little something

like this.

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 notebooks

It's Mira's Detective Class

Ask all the questions

Follow your senses

Focus on every clue

ALL: 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

Now the first thing

we need to do

is ask Mrs. Noronha

what happened.

Ooh, ooh, I can do that!

(CLEARS THROAT)

Mrs. Noronha,

what happened?

A bike delivery person

was supposed to pick up

a basket of hoops

at the waterfront

and bring them

to my toy shop.

Can you describe

what the basket looks like?

It was decorated

with flowers, but it never arrived.

I am just so upset.

So upset!

All right. Now we know

what we're looking for.

So, where do you think

we should start investigating?

Well, since the delivery person

was supposed to pick up

the basket at the waterfront,

I say we start there.

Excellent, Manya.

Let's go.

Don't you worry,

Mrs. Noronha.

We'll find

your hoops for you.

Remember that Mrs. Noronha said

the basket was decorated with flowers.

Maybe some petals

fell off of them.

And landed

on the ground.

Hint, hint.

Oh, everyone look around

for flower petals.

They could be clues.

-I'll check here.

-I'll check there.

You might want to look

near the lamppost.

ALL: The lamppost!

No petals here.

Try looking closer.

Use your

magnifying glasses.

-Oh, yeah!

-Already doing it.

I don't see any petals.

Nothing here.

Really?

What do you mean?

Definitely no petals.

What?

I saw you put them

right here.

The flowers were supposed

to be our clues and they're gone.

-Mira, we got this!

-We got this!

(SNIFFING)

Class, there may not be

flowers here

But our expert

super sniffers tell us

that there are

some flower petals that way.

Great thinking, guys.

Class, when

solving a mystery,

It's important to use

all your senses,

like smell.

The smell

of the flowers

can be a trail

to follow.

-That's what I thought.

-What are we waiting for?

Let's follow it.

Mikku, Chikku,

follow your noses.

(BOTH SNIFFING)

Keep your eyes out for flowers

that might have fallen off the basket.

Mikku, Chikku,

are we getting closer?

Oh, yes. The scent

is getting stronger.

And stronger.

It's leading

right toward this

completely empty

patch of sidewalk.

What is going on?

I watched you

put the petals down right here.

(BREATHES) Okay, okay.

There has to be

a simple explanation.

Maybe they blew away.

Mira, there are

no flower petals.

How do we solve

a case with no clues?

Arvind, that is a very,

very good question.

And I would really like

to know the answer.

(SOFTLY) Guys,

we're going with Plan B.

-Plan B?

-I didn't know there was a plan A.

We need to skip to the part

where they ask Dhruv questions.

Follow my lead.

(LAUGHS) Oh, class, sometimes

when we don't find any clues,

we say the trail

has gone cold.

-Brr!

-Brr!

And then

what do you do?

I take a step back

and think about the case.

And I do my best thinking

with a nice tall glass of lassi.

You heard

the Royal Detective.

It's lassi time, people.

CLASS: Okay!

Let's just hope Dhruv

is still at the chai shop.

-Dhruv!

-Boy, are we happy to see you!

Class, do you remember

what Mrs. Noronha said

about the missing basket

of hoops?

Yes. She said

a bike delivery person

was supposed

to bring it to her shop.

Hey, Dhruv is dressed

like a delivery person.

We should ask him

some questions.

Dhruv, weren't you supposed to deliver

the basket of hoops to the toy shop?

And why didn't you, huh?

I did deliver.

Then why doesn't

Mrs. Noronha have her hoops?

Huh? Huh?

Got an answer for that, Dhruv?

Dhruv, would you come with us and

show us where you delivered the basket?

Huh, okay, sure.

Mira, this wasn't the plan.

The mystery

is messed up.

We lost

all our clues.

-What?

-Work with me, Dhruv.

I'm trying to save my class.

Class, Dhruv says

he delivered the basket.

Do you have any questions,

you want to ask about that?

Yes. How come

Mrs. Noronha never got it?

Yeah, explain that,

Dhruv.

When I got here,

Mrs. Noronha wasn't here yet.

So I left the basket behind that

toy elephant where it'll be safe, really.

MIKKU: So it's behind

the elephant.

CHIKKU: Hint, hint.

There's

nothing here.

No basket.

What do you say now, Dhruv?

Uh

It's not there?

It has to be there.

It's supposed to be there.

This is bad.

Really bad.

Wait. My basket

of toy hoops is really missing?

I haven't

rehearsed for this.

Mira, what is

going on?

(SIGHS) We set up

a whole mystery for you all to solve.

We laid out a trail of flower petals

leading to a basket of toy hoops.

But the flowers

disappeared.

And now

the basket has too.

All the clues

are missing.

The whole mystery

is missing.

A missing mystery?

I'm confused.

So Dhruv didn't

take the basket.

Wait a second.

This is great.

How exactly?

I'm on an emotional

roller coaster.

It's great because

we have a real mystery on our hands.

One we can solve together.

We're on the case of

"The Missing Mystery."

We're on the case

We're on the case, we're on the case

Hold on. Normally we would sing a song

and that sounded really good.

But class is almost over.

We have no time to waste.

(ALL EXCLAIMING)

-Let's do this!

-MIKKU: Now we 're talking.

I miss the song.

Let's go back and investigate

all the places we were before

so we can figure out

what happened to our clues

and the basket.

Chikku and I will look

by the lamp-post.

Mikku and I will check

in front of the garden shop.

I can stay here

and investigate the toy shop.

And I'll finish my lassi

and go home. Good luck, bye.

Chikku, I think

I found something.

Tiny pieces of flower petals.

Thanks. Not hungry

at the moment.

Mikku, check it out.

Pieces of flower petals.

Well, done Manya!

I'm so good at this.

Mira, we found

pieces of flower petals.

We did too.

There are

some here too.

Great job, everyone.

Let's take

a look at them.

What do you notice

about these petals?

They look they've

been chewed up.

Chikku, how could

you eat the evidence?

Excuse me?

I didn't eat the flowers.

At least not this time.

But I think someone else did.

-Let's think this through, together.

-ALL: Okay.

MANYA: At every place

we were supposed to find the clue

SADIA: We found

tiny pieces of chewed up flower petals.

ARVIND: Earlier today

who did we see chewing up flowers?

ALL: Pari and Bhavna!

MIRA: That's right. So maybe

the goats ate the trail of flowers

and left pieces

of petals in their place.

But what about

the missing basket?

Maybe the goats

have something to do with that too.

We need to talk

to Pinky and find out.

ALL: Chalo, Chalo! Let's go!

I'm so proud.

Happy tears.

Nice jump, Pari.

Way to go.

Class, look.

The missing

hoops.

-There they' re.

-We found them.

Hi, everyone.

Aren't these hoops great.

Pinky, by any chance,

did you find those hoops

in a basket by the toy shop?

Yes. Well, actually,

Pari and Bhavna did.

They munched that trail

of flower petals

all the way to the basket

behind the toy elephant.

You ate our mystery!

I hope it was tasty.

(BLEATING)

Pinky, I put the basket of hoops

there for my detective class to find.

You're kidding?

We didn't know

it belonged to anyone.

We are so sorry.

-Right, Pari? Right Bhavna?

-(BLEATS)

That's okay.

You gave Sadia, Manya and Arvind

a chance to solve a real mystery.

Great job.

Altogether,

people.

ALL: The case of

"The Missing Mystery" is closed.

(ALL EXCLAIMING)

Congratulations,

on solving your first case.

Because you're

all such great detectives,

I want you each

to have a detective badge.

ALL: Wow!

-One for you.

-Thanks.

-One for you.

-Love it.

-One for you.

-Exciting!

And two

for the helpers.

Not a toy,

people.

I repeat, not a toy.

CHIKKU: Hey, that's

my badge Pari.

MIKKU: No class, no badge.

MIRA: Mystery at

the Gilli Danda Game.

Okay, get ready.

Mira is gonna hit that small piece

of wood, that's gilli, with that stick,

that's the danda.

All you need to do is catch the gilli.

If we do, she's out.

I'm wide open Mira.

Hit the gilli

this way, Mira.

No, this way.

Ready?

Here it comes.

(GRUNTS)

Oops, I didn't mean

to hit it so far.

Your turn

to look for it, Mikku.

My turn?

I went last time.

We'll all look for it.

Come on.

Is it me or does

this game have more finding than playing?

I got it,

I got it.

-That's a branch, Chikku.

-Oopsies

Here it is.

Great Dhruv,

you're up.

Great.

We're ready, Dhruv.

Here I go.

-Hands up.

-Coming your way.

I got it.

Wow! Did you see that?

-Wow!

-We need to meet that girl.

Yes, we do.

We do.

I think this

belongs to you?

That was an amazing catch.

Thanks.

-Hi, Ritu.

-Hi, Mira, this is my cousin Karishma.

She just moved a Jalpur.

I'm showing her around.

Karishma, these are

my friends, Mira, Dhruv

And Mikku, soon

to be your favorite mongoose.

You mean,

second favorite after me.

The names is Chikku.

(CHUCKLING)

It's great to meet you all.

I love the flowers

on your wheelchair.

Thanks. I painted them myself.

Everything can use

a little style upgrade.

The flowers are great,

but let's talk Gilli Danda.

I love Gilli Danda.

I've been trying to get Ritu

to play it since I moved here.

Yeah. Who wants to play

with someone as good as you do?

BOTH: We do.

We've spent

most of the day looking for the gilli.

It is hard to spot

the gilli in the grass.

Hey, Karishma,

you should play with us.

We call Karishma

on our team.

Yeah, back off, Dhruv.

I'd love to play with all of you,

but Ritu is showing me around.

I made a list of all

the great things about Jalpur.

We can check

park off the list

And you can check off

"met the best mongooses."

There's a lot

on the list.

We better

get going, bye.

-See you.

-Nice meeting you.

Have a great tour.

CHIKKU: Can't wait for you

to join our team.

We should

get back to the game.

Or we could go

get some Kulfi.

Mira, we will be much better

gilli-finders after a snack-break.

I'm convinced.

Let's do it.

Come on, Dhruv.

MIKKU: Boy, that kulfi

really hit the spot.

Everything is

better with kulfi.

Okay, let's play

another round of Gilli Danda.

Wow, check out these gillis.

Wow. Where did

they come from?

I don't know. Someone must've

put them into my basket as a gift.

I've never seen

anything like them.

I mean, the ones

I made are good. But these are way better.

Aren't the bright

colors amazing?

Let's try

one out.

Oh, wow. This gilli is much easier

to find than those other ones.

That's it,

we're keeping them.

We can't just

keep them, Chikku.

Mikku's right.

We have to find whoever left these

gillis for us, so we can thank them.

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

Let's see if there's

a note on the basket.

Nope, nothing.

So how are we gonna figure out

who left us the gillis.

Here's a clue

that might help us.

-What is it?

-Do tell.

There are two

matching tire tracks near the basket.

How exactly

does that help us?

Maybe whoever

left the gillis rides a vehicle

with two wheels

that are side by side.

-You mean like a rickshaw?

-Exactly.

Chikku, Mira

has a rickshaw.

So, Mira

gave us the gillis.

Guys, it wasn't me.

I was with you

getting kulfi, remember?

-Oh.

-I knew that.

And anyway, rickshaw

couldn't have made the tracks.

The wheels are, one, two, three,

four, five Dhruv-feet apart.

Dhruv-feet?

What's that?

I'm using my own feet to measure

the distance between the wheels.

And these tracks are only

one, two, three Dhruv-feet apart.

Very clever, Dhruv.

So we're looking for something

with two wheels side by side

that are

three Dhruv-feet apart.

Lots of things

have two wheels side by side.

-The Chai-cart?

-Kulfi cart.

-Banana cart.

-Mango cart.

It's gonna take

forever to check all the carts in town.

But it's going

to taste good.

Well, these

gillis look new.

So the first place

we should check is the toy shop.

Maybe whoever

left them for us bought them there.

Namaste, Mrs. Noronha.

Oh, hello, Mira.

What can I do for you today?

We're here on official

Royal Detective business.

Are you now?

How wonderful!

How can I help you?

Someone left us

these gillis.

Oh, they're beautiful.

What a lovely thing

for someone to do.

Do you sell gillis

like this here?

I'm afraid not, Mira.

The only gillis I sell

are plain wood, right there.

Chikku, go long.

BOTH: Mikku, Chikku,

watch out!

CHIKKU: Got it

Uh-oh.

Boys.

Gilli Danda is an outdoor game.

Yeah, Dhruv.

It's an outdoor game.

BOTH: Sorry, Auntie.

Mrs. Noronha, do you know where

someone might buy gillis like this?

I don't, Mira.

These look like

they were hand painted.

They do,

don't they?

So maybe the person who gave us

the gillis painted these themselves.

Thank you, Auntie.

Of course. Good luck.

If they didn't buy the gillis,

how will we find the person who left them?

We need to keep

looking for more clues.

I see wheel tracks

side by side.

These tracks look a lot like

the ones we saw by your basket, Dhruv.

One, two, three Dhruv-feet

apart, just like the others.

And look, there's

paint in the tracks.

It matches

the colors on the gillis.

A promising lead.

We have a break

in the case, people.

We need to

follow those tracks.

MIKKU: Over there, Mira.

CHIKKU: Go this way.

Wait. Where'd

they go?

It's a mystery.

Hang on,

hang on.

MIKKU: There's

something in the road.

Watch the sign, people,

watch the sign.

The other way,

move along.

It looks like the sign

is here to warn people about that pothole.

I've popped a lot of tires,

biking over potholes.

It's not great, let me tell you,

this sign is going to save a lot of tires.

And it's made with pink, orange and

turquoise paint, just like the gillis.

So maybe

The person who left the gillis

also made this sign?

Yes, we just need

to follow the tracks.

Huh, Mira, where

did the tracks go?

Good question.

-(BLEATING)

-Oh, Pari, you can do it.

Good job, Pari.

Bring it back.

-Hi, Pinky.

-Hi, Mira, Pari is learning to fetch.

She finally got

the catch the ball part now.

We're still working

on the bring it back part.

Don't worry, Pinky.

We are expert "Goat-trainers."

We'll show Pari

how it's done.

Pari, watch this.

(MIMICS BLEATING)

Hey, that was my foot.

-Sorry, Mikku.

-(BLEATS)

Good girl.

Hey, this ball has

the same colored stripes as the gillis.

Oh, yeah, it does.

Wait. What gillis?

Someone left us these gillis.

We're trying to figure out who

it is, so we can thank them.

You're kidding.

I'm trying figure out

who left Pari and me this ball.

-(BLEATS)

-Someone left that for you?

Pinky, can you show us

where you found the ball?

Sure, Mira.

It was right over here

by my grooming station.

Guys, check it out,

two tire tracks, side by side, Dhruv?

These tracks are

one, two, three Dhruv-feet apart.

So the same person who gave Pinky the ball

must have also given us the gillis

and put the sign

over the pothole.

But who?

We still don't know.

(BLEATS)

This ball has a picture

of a flower on it.

I've seen

this flower before.

Let's think

this through.

The gillis, the sign and the ball are

all painted with the same three colors,

and the ball

has a painted flower on it.

We saw the same flower earlier

on Karishma's wheelchair.

So maybe Karishma put

the sign over the pothole.

Gave Pari the ball

and gave us the gillis.

(ALL EXCLAIMING)

We need to go

talk to Karishma.

Chalo, Chalo!

Let's go!

MIRA: Hi, Karishma.

Hi, Ritu.

-Hi, everyone.

-Hi.

Karishma, we've been

following some tracks today

and we wondered if we could

take a look at the wheels of your chair.

Sure.

These wheels are one,

two, three Dhruv-feet apart.

Just like the tracks

we found.

BOTH: It's a match.

Karishma, did you paint these gillis

and leave them in Dhruv's basket?

Yes. Ritu and I did it.

It was Karishma's idea.

I thought colorful gillis

would be easier to find.

Why look for a boring plain gilli,

when you can play in style?

Did you also make the sign near

the pothole and paint a ball for Pinky?

Yes. I didn't want

anyone to fall in the pothole or get hurt.

And Pari was having

a hard time playing fetch.

I figured

a colorful ball would help.

So you just went around town

doing nice things for people?

And goats?

Helping is kind

of my thing.

You know, like being

a detective is your thing, Mira.

Like eating snacks.

And being

incredibly adorable.

BOTH: Is our thing.

Sometimes a little change

can make a big difference.

You made

a big difference for all of us, Karishma.

Thank you so much.

These gillis are incredible.

What do you say we get back to the park

and pick up our game?

Can you play

with us now, Karishma?

We call Karishma

on our team, people.

I'd love to play.

-There is just one thing.

-What is it?

Well, sometimes it's hard

to move my wheelchair quickly

on the grass in the park, and this chair

was built for speed. As you can see.

I have an idea. If we make a little

change then everyone can play

-(ALL EXCLAIMING)

-That sounds great.

Mira, this is the perfect spot

for me to play Gilli Danda.

I'm gonna go so fast.

Great, Karishma.

-Hop on, teammates.

-BOTH: Hey!

-Whoa-hoo!

-We're unstoppable!

Ritu, you're up.

Here I go. Here I go.

-You can do it, Ritu.

-You got it.

Here goes

Hang tight, team mongoose!

Super speed.

Yes!

(EXCLAIMS)

Great catch,

Chikku.

(BLEATS)

MIKKU: Hey, Pari, you can't

just come in and snatch one of our gillis.

Not cool, Pari, not cool.

MIKKU: Pari! That's our gilli!

-CHIKKU: Give back our gilli.

-(BLEATS)
