00:00I don't know.
00:30Did you really think those tiny little legs were going to help you get away?
01:00Hello, Bad Jelly. I see you've made quite the mess. Best I clean it up.
01:10Jim the Eagle? How utterly irritating to see.
01:21That gem, what's it done to my magic?
01:24It's absorbed your magic like a freshly wrung sponge. Absorbs a spilt dandelion tea.
01:29Oh, I forgot how long-winded you are.
01:33Prepare to feel the long wind of my wings.
01:36That doesn't even make sense!
01:38Eagle run!
01:49It's this thing! Jim!
01:52That'll work!
01:53Ahhhhh...
01:54Move!
01:55Ahhhhh...
01:56Ahhhhh...
01:57Ahhhh...
01:58Ohhhh...
01:59Ahhhh...
02:00Ahhhh...
02:01Ahhhh...
02:02Let's go.
02:32Once upon a time, there was a little boy and girl, and their names were Tim and Rose.
02:49Fluffy Bums!
02:52Fluffy Bums, Fluffy Bums, Fluffy Bums!
03:02Oh, she's coming. Dad, pause your weird posing.
03:23I'm not posing. It's yoga, and it's good for increased flexibility and muscle strength.
03:29Also, I'm stuck like this.
03:32Happy birthday, Rose!
03:35Oh, um, thanks, you guys.
03:38Oh, just a moment. I haven't had much time to try all this, but it should work.
03:49Boom! The dog can play the piano.
03:52That's great, Mum.
03:54Very great.
03:55Well done, love. But whose dog is it?
03:59Um...
04:01No idea.
04:07You should open your present. It's not a book.
04:10Then, I have everything planned out.
04:13As usual, I have a bunch of games and activities planned.
04:16Some of them not approved by the parental units.
04:19Tim, you are not making a human launcher again.
04:22It was a person picture, and I only broke 25% of my limbs.
04:27Actually, I'd just like to read my book for a bit today.
04:30She just needs a little space.
04:34You'll understand when you get a bit older, too.
04:53Ow!
04:54I don't need your help. Thank you.
05:12Nope. Tried it.
05:15Nope. Didn't work in the slightest.
05:17That one hurt. Stinky-poo, stinky-poo.
05:21Snickers, knickers, knickers!
05:25How's a witch supposed to get her powers back when these books are full of useless nonsense?
05:31I want nonsense that works!
05:34Ugh!
05:35Nothing!
05:37What's this?
05:41Oh!
05:42A hidden spell!
05:44An ingestible restorative potion for returning one's powers to full capacity.
05:49Well, that sounds perfectly me.
05:52Carrots.
05:53Carrots.
05:54Leeks.
05:55Parsnips.
05:56Milk.
05:57Salt.
05:58Pepper.
05:59A boy and a girl.
06:01Ugh, I hate parsnips, and I'm fresh out of boys and girls.
06:05But I'm sure I could find some.
06:07Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

13:05This is so boring. I'm a witch, not a greasy kitchen hand.
13:18I'll just wait for Dullboot to get home. He loves mundane grunt work.
13:26Lucy!
13:32I can see her!
13:34Lucy!
13:40Lucy, I can't believe you opened the gate all on your own and escaped.
13:44So naughty.
13:46Yeah, they're not going to buy that.
13:48Tim, wait, look.
13:50I think that's the dark forest.
13:52Whoa! Let's go check it out.
13:56No, no, no. You heard what that weird old man said about that place.
13:59We need to call Lucy over to us.
14:01Lucy!
14:03Lucy!
14:12I'll be fine.
14:13You have to think about these things, Tim.
14:14Oh, I'm thinking. Thinking about jumping this fence.
14:15Sometimes I wish you'd just grow up.
14:16Well, I wish you'd grow down.
14:17That doesn't even make sense.
14:18Yes, it does.
14:19Yeah, if you've got a silly brain.
14:20Says you!
14:21Yeah, exactly. I said it.
14:22And it sounded dumb.
14:23You're so frustrating sometimes.
14:34Okay. Now, what does that weird face mean?
14:40Gi-gi-gi-giant hand.
14:42What?
14:43Her giant hand just lured Lucy into the forest.
14:46Yeah, they're not going to buy that.
14:49Oh, we can maybe pick some flowers to entice Lucy over.
14:52No. Lucy's gone.
14:54Great. We've lost her again.
14:57She's gone into the forest. What do we do?
14:59We go on an adventure to rescue Lucy from that giant monster, that's what.
15:04But, Tim! There's no such thing as a giant monster!
15:08Where is that giant buffoon?
15:19Yeah, I'm just going to have a cup of tea without him.
15:24Ning-nang-nilly! Tea cup-nilly!
15:26Stinky-poo! Stupid, faulty magic!
15:31That was the last of Nana Jelly's good china.
15:34It's a good thing she's dead.
15:36Boo-hoo!
15:37Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
15:41Oh, I'm bored.
15:44Hurry up dull boot.
15:46How long does it take to nab a couple of kids and throw them in a sack?
15:53Oh, he's home, he's home!
15:57Okay. There Jelly, keep it cool.
16:00Don't want him to think he's the bees' knees.
16:05And what time do you call this?
16:07Who's the bee's knees?
16:08Oh, I forgot his ears. A giant, too.
16:11I said bee's knees. I thought I heard a bee's knees.
16:15Oh, right, well, yeah, it is elegy season, yeah, yeah.
16:17Ain't that the truth?
16:21Enough chit-chat.
16:22Where are those grubby little children?
16:26Oh, they tried to fool me,
16:27but I could see through their cunning disguise.
16:30I know a couple of kids in a horse costume when I see it.
16:37Do you? You know it when you see it, do you?
16:42This is not a couple of kids in a horse costume.
16:46This is a couple of kids in a cow costume,
16:50you feeble-faced fool.
16:53And I'm going to rip them out of there.
16:57There must be a zip somewhere.
17:04Ready or not, here I...
17:06Dull boot!
17:11This is a real cow.
17:13Good thing you didn't try the, um, the other end then.
17:17To restore my powers, I need boy-girl soup.
17:20To make boy-girl soup, I need children.
17:22And you brought me a filthy old cow!
17:28Tim, stop touching everything.
17:30Stop touching everything.
17:31Uh, how can I not touch this thing?
17:36It popped!
17:40I see that.
17:41I heard my tongue out.
17:42I tasted it.
17:43What if it was poisonous?
17:45Nah.
17:47Nah, not poisonous.
17:48Just gross.
17:49Come on, Rose.
17:52Lucy's tracks go this way.
17:58Whoa.
18:07Do you think we could grow some of these glowy mushrooms at home?
18:09I doubt it.
18:10Looks like they need very specific conditions.
18:14Under my bed is pretty dark and gross and damp and awesome.
18:18Yeah, that's why I don't play hide-and-seek anymore.
18:21I know.
18:25Hey, maybe once we get Lucy, you can choose a weird glowy mushroom
18:28and we can see if it will grow in your gross slimy underbed garden.
18:32How about that?
18:34I want a pink one!
18:39Whoa!
18:41You have to try this.
18:43Uh...
19:10That one's out of tune.
19:12Oh, no, no, no, this can't be happening, no, no.
19:16What?
19:17The tracks.
19:18Where are the tracks?
19:19Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
19:20Rose, I don't think we came this way.
19:23Rose!
19:31Oh, we don't know where she went.
19:33And it goes on forever.
19:35She could be anywhere.
19:37Maybe if we go back, we can retrace our steps.
19:40Maybe if we had been concentrating rather than mucking around,
19:43we wouldn't be lost.
19:47Hey, no, I'm sorry.
19:49This is my fault.
19:50I'm supposed to be the responsible one.
19:57You don't have to be.
19:58You're still a kid.
20:03Stop touching the mushrooms, Tim.
20:06I did not touch anything.
20:10We have to move.
20:13See?
20:14Told you that was a giant monster.
20:16Tim, we have to move.
20:17The tree.
20:18We need to get up as high as we can.
20:20I can't climb that.
20:21Yes, you can.
20:23You're the best tree climber, I know.
20:25Oh, yeah.
20:26This is Fanta's tree.
20:27You were always better at getting to the top than me.
20:29Come on.
20:30Hey.
20:31I've got you.
20:32Whoa.
20:33Whoa.
20:34Where are we, Rose?
20:36I don't know, Tim.
20:37I really don't know.
20:38I don't know, Tim.
20:39I really don't know.
20:40I don't know.
20:41I don't know, Tim.
20:42I really don't know.
20:43I don't know.
20:44I don't know.
20:45I don't know, Tim.
20:46I really don't know.
20:48I don't know.
20:53Oh, my God.
20:54Don't know.
20:55I don't know.
20:56I don't know, Tim.
21:01I really don't know.
21:04I don't know.
