00:48I am Seymour S. Sassafras and Company.
00:53This is the Seymour S. Sassafras, and this is the Company.
01:00I am a peddler by trade.
01:02By trade and by golly, by golly, by golly.
01:05I deal in magic and moonbeams and pretty, pretty colors.
01:10Oh, yes.
01:11I can sell you the most perfect pink,
01:14or the most blissful blue,
01:16or a simply euphoric yellow.
01:19Ha, ha, ha.
01:19That, of course, is why I'm here in April Valley,
01:23delivering all these colors to Peter Cottontail,
01:27so he can paint his Easter eggs, you know.
01:30What?
01:31You say you've never been to April Valley before?
01:35Well, that's okay.
01:37I'll show you around.
01:39This way, please.
01:41Now, you see?
01:42April Valley's where all the Easter bunnies lived and were.
01:46Oh, yes.
01:49Ah, April Valley's finest candy carvings.
01:53Meet Milk Chocolate Angelo and Leonardo the Bittersweet.
01:58Ha, ha.
02:01And over there is the famous Easter bunny bonnet foundry.
02:07Now, of course, it's all very nice here,
02:10thanks to Peter Cottontail.
02:12Well, hmm, you never heard of Peter Cottontail?
02:18Great, chattering chick-chicks!
02:21They've never heard of Peter Cottontail!
02:24They've never heard of Peter Cottontail?
02:28Why, he's the number one chief Easter bunny around here.
02:33See?
02:33You, you, you mean you never heard how he almost lost the job?
02:42Ah, oh, my.
02:44You actually mean you never heard how a terrible, wicked, nasty rabbit
02:52named Irontail almost became the Easter bunny?
02:58Ha, ha, ha, ha.
03:00Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
03:04Montressard, Montressard,
03:07consists,
03:07away,
03:09away!
03:13genauso.
03:14If you peek into this magic egg,
03:17you'll see the whole story just as it happened.
03:20Peter was just a young whippersnapper,
03:23sort of a junior Easter bunny.
03:25Here comes Peter Cottontail, hopping down the bunny trail, hippity-hopping, Easter's on its way, bringing every girl and boy
03:38baskets full of Easter joy, things to make your Easter bright and gay.
04:21Here comes Peter Cottontail.
04:43Here comes Peter Cottontail.
05:07Well, it all began one bright and sunny springtime right here in April Valley.
05:12The former chief Easter bunny, Colonel Wellington B. Bunny, oh, he was a fine old gent, was getting on in
05:20years, and he figured it was just about time for him to retire.
05:25Of course, it was a sworn duty to appoint a worthy successor.
05:29No, it's out of the question. I couldn't...
05:33Wait! Peter Cottontail, just a moment. Now, here's a likely candidate.
05:39I really don't think Cottontail's a man, sir. I mean, he is boastful, he has no sense of responsibility, and
05:48sometimes, sometimes he fibs.
05:50Oh, well, I know he's not perfect, but he's got real spunk and ingenuity. Reminds me of me when I
05:58was his age.
05:59But I never dreamed I'd get to be chief Easter bunny.
06:05Peter, you're telling a fib. Every time you tell a fib, your left ear droops.
06:13Oh, well, I guess I did think about the job once or twice. Lots of times.
06:21Peter, good heavens, Peter, my boy, you've got to shape up and reform if you want to be chief Easter
06:27bunny.
06:29There are tulips that need tending, and baskets that need mending. The jelly beans are piling up in heat.
06:38There are eggs that need collecting, and hens who are expecting. In spring, the Easter bunny never sleeps.
06:46There are bonnets that need sewing, and garbles that need hoeing. Some chocolate chicks have broken out in heat.
06:55There are colors that are running, and workers who are sunny. In spring, the Easter bunny never sleeps.
07:03Bright and early is the morning. All the work must be done. Eggs ready to roll. In time for the
07:12fun.
07:12Well, I said the cross, the bunny has not one single day. There are children waiting everywhere. There can be
07:20no delay.
07:21Hey, so get all those tulips taken, and every basket mended. It's not a game. We're playing this for keeps.
07:30Get those bows and ribbons tied on, for you will be relied on.
07:36Every spring, the Easter bunny never sleeps. Never sleeps.
07:45But meanwhile, far away in the distant reaches of April Valley...
07:50I won't allow Cottontail to be the new chief Easter bunny. I must be the new ruler of April Valley.
07:59You, sir?
08:00Yes. Years ago, a small child roller skated over my tail. Since then, I have had to wear this artificial
08:10one, made of iron, instead of having a nice, fluffy, white gundale like that beater.
08:18But it was an accident, sir. The child didn't mean to...
08:22I don't care! Since that time, I have detested all children.
08:29But then, why be Easter bunny to get even?
08:35When I'm through with April Valley, we'll never be bothered by children again.
08:42Ha, ha, ha, ha. Hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee.
08:49Here, son. Here.
08:52Here is your official egg basket.
08:58Carry... carry it with pride.
09:02I will, sir.
09:04I hereby officially declare you Chief Easter...
09:11Just a mean old minute.
09:15Hmm. Hmm.
09:17Just in time.
09:19For what, Iron Tail?
09:21Here is the Constitution of April Valley.
09:25It says that the Chief Easter Bunny shall be the one who delivers the most eggs.
09:32I know that!
09:34That's why I've chosen...
09:36Well, when it comes to delivering eggs, Peter Cottontail is...
09:40Ha, ha, ha.
09:42Real squeamish carrots to January Q, Iron Tail.
09:50I propose a contest to see who can deliver the most eggs.
09:56Yeah, it's absolutely out of the question.
09:57Wait a minute, Colonel.
09:58I'm not afraid of Iron Tail.
10:00I know I can lick him any day.
10:02Ha, Peter, this is no time for bragging.
10:06No, no, I insist, Colonel.
10:07A contest is the fair way of deciding who's best.
10:11Don't worry.
10:12It'll be me.
10:13Well, you better head win, Peter.
10:16Because once I give my word, I shall stick to it.
10:22Therefore, I have decided that whoever delivers the most eggs tomorrow, Easter, will be the new ruler of April Valley.
10:37Hooray!
10:38Hooray!
10:39Hooray!
10:40Hooray!
10:40Hooray!
10:41You've got to win, Peter.
10:44Absolutely have to win.
10:47Iron Tail will do terrible things to April Valley.
10:51Make sure, make sure you get up bright and early tomorrow so you can do your best.
10:58But Peter was so sure he'd win the next day, that instead of getting lots of sleep, he had a
11:05big party with all his friends.
11:08And it was very late when he finally went to bed.
11:12I've got to get up on time tomorrow.
11:14Five-thirty, Ben.
11:17Remember?
11:20There are tulips that need tending.
11:25There baskets that need mending.
11:30In spring, the Easter bunny.
11:33No one will sleep.
11:37Sleep, sleep, sleep.
11:40But you can be certain that old Iron Tail wasn't going to play fair.
11:45No funny.
11:46No funny.
11:46No funny business now.
11:48Oh, no, of course not.
11:51I have a little gift for you.
11:54Because, well, because I like chicken so much.
12:01Bubble...
12:02Bubble...
12:03Bubble...
12:03Bubble...
12:03Bubblegum.
12:04Corn-flavored bubblegum.
12:06My f-f-f-favorite.
12:09He-he-he-he-he-he.
12:11April Valley is as good as mine.
12:14Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
12:17Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
12:19Ha-ha.
12:20Ooh.
12:21Ooh.
12:22Ooh.
12:24You see?
12:25It was magic bubblegum, guaranteed to seal the lips of an alarm clock rooster.
12:32Those bubbles cock-a-doodle-dooed so far away, Peter never heard them.
12:40He slept on and on and on all through Easter day.
12:48Now, nobody wanted an egg from an unpleasant old bunny like Irontail.
12:54As a matter of fact, though he tried all day long, he was only able to give away one single
13:02egg.
13:03However, since Peter slept through Easter and didn't deliver any eggs at all, Irontail won.
13:12Oh, my goodness.
13:13And he now ruled April back.
13:19Every mule, if that needs tending, will get a proper bending.
13:24And jelly beans will rot about their heaps.
13:30All the hens who are expecting will get no more protecting.
13:38For in spring, the Easter bunny always sleeps.
13:42And from this time forward, all Easter eggs shall be colored a shade of mud.
13:52Ha-ha.
13:52And new concrete.
13:54Ha-ha-ha.
13:55Instead of chocolate bunnies and chicks, I commission the candy sculptors to make tarantulas.
14:03Ha-ha.
14:04And octopuses.
14:05And I hereby declare an end to Easter bonnets.
14:11From now on, there will only be Easter galoshes.
14:16I need lots of peace and quiet.
14:21And Easter won't deny it.
14:26Every spring, the Easter bunny always sleeps.
14:31Ha-ha.
14:32Ha-ha.
14:32Ha-ha.
14:33Ha-ha.
14:36Ha-ha.
14:37Ha-ha.
14:37Ha-ha.
14:37Peter Cottontail, who realized that his bragging and irresponsibility had let everybody down,
14:44left April Valley in disgrace.

20:48I could only get back to yesterday, oh the different things I do and say, oh yesterday, oh yesterday.
21:15A thousand crimson curses, I forgot all about Sassafras' silly time machine, well I'll put a creepy crimp in their
21:31pathetic plans, don't you understand my plans?
21:40Now catch up with them, and by all means, play dirty!
21:51Are we almost at Easterland 1?
21:53Soon be, as soon. We are travelling 100 hours an hour.
22:03There is something, she's very wrong with the controls.
22:08They indicated proximity to Easter, yet by my calculation.
22:23And because the control wires were all fouled out, Easter was lost, and they crashed right down in the middle
22:30of Mother's Day.
22:35Happy Easter.
22:37Easter? It's Mother's Day.
22:40You forgot us on Easter.
22:42I'll say you did. Oh I don't mind for myself, but there were no eggs for the children.
22:47And no Easter bonnet for Mom.
22:50Well I'll make it all up now. Here, my pleasure.
22:53Ah, who wants Easter eggs on Mother's Day?
22:59And wherever Peter went on Mother's Day, the reaction was exactly the same.
23:06Antoine did his best to repair the damaged time control.
23:09It works! And I, of course, sense a holiday, no?
23:19A holiday, yes! But the 4th of July!
23:23We are falling!
23:26This, this is an outrageous situation!
23:41Eh? That's what little Antoine cried out as they tumbled through the sky.
23:46Here, see for yourself.
23:50We are falling! This is an outrageous situation!
24:03We made it!
24:05That, mon ami, is obvious.
24:07Thanks, of course, to my superb piloting.
24:11Superb? We're a long way from Easter.
24:14Ah, well, tell me, Pierre, in the rules of Apple Valley,
24:20does it say the eggs must be given at Easter?
24:25No, but, but who wants Easter eggs on the 4th of July?
24:28And they didn't even want them on Mother's Day!
24:31Easter eggs, no?
24:32But, uh, 4th of July eggs?
24:36What I am saying, mon ami,
24:39is that one sometimes must improvise.
24:43People believe what they are still their eyes.
24:48So when you can't get it all together, improvise.
24:51Improvise.
24:52When you can't get it all together, improvise.
24:57You can't tell a rose.
25:00Isn't a rose.
25:02If you keep it away from your nose.
25:06It might be made out of paper mache.
25:10But it's a rose if you want a rose to be that way.
25:15People believe what they are still their eyes.
25:20So when you can't get it all together, improvise.
25:25When you can't get it all together, improvise.
25:41If you want to snick.
25:53And I hope you're still there.豪

35:48Same to you, Santa!
35:52Hey, I know how to give these eggs away!
35:55We wish you a Merry Christmas!
35:57We wish you a Merry Christmas!
35:58We wish you a Merry Christmas!
36:00Merry Christmas!
36:02I'm the Santa Bunny!
36:03Get your free Christmas eggs here!
36:06Eat them or use them to decorate your tree!
36:09Ha, ha, ha!
36:10Merry Christmas!
36:11How goes the egg business?
36:14Not so good.
36:16The street's deserted.
36:17Of course!
36:18Everyone has finished with their customer shopping
36:20and are now snug and warm at home.
36:23Ha, you are too late again, mon ami.
36:26I guess so.
36:28It seemed like such a good idea.
36:30Well, at least I, too, am snug and warm.
36:44Gee, who's crying?
36:46It sounds like it's coming from that hat shop.
36:52Gee, it's Bonnie!
36:53Bonnie Bonnet!
36:54She left April Valley years ago.
36:57Hi, Bonnie!
36:58Why are you crying?
37:00Oh, Peter!
37:02I'm so glad to see you, baby!
37:05Nobody wants me!
37:07What a way for a lady to end up
37:10unbought on Christmas Eve!
37:14Wait a minute!
37:16Sorry I'm closing up.
37:18But you can't leave Bonnie all alone on Christmas Eve.
37:22Ah, that ridiculous hat!
37:24Who wants an Easter bonnet this time of year?
37:26I'll take her.
37:27I'm sure I can find a home for Bonnie.
37:29You, a silly little rabbit.
37:31Whatever would you use for money?
37:33Oh, I have lots of money!
37:36Darn it.
37:37Oh, wait a minute.
37:38I'll trade you my Christmas eggs for Bonnie.
37:41Christmas eggs?
37:42Yeah, see?
37:43In that basket out there on the sidewalk.
37:45Why, they're beautiful!
37:47Deal?
37:48Deal.
37:48Deal!
37:49Deal!
37:50Deal.
37:55Gee, I forgot I was wearing this Santa suit.
37:58Ah!
37:59What is it?
38:01Somebody's stealing the Christmas eggs!
38:03It's another rabbit!
38:06Careless, careless.
38:08He, he, he, he, he, he.
38:10Mustn't let these things lie about.
38:12Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
38:14Yes, Peter Tottentail, this time I'm personally taking care of these eggs.
38:22Away!
38:23Away, Montefestade!
38:24Hooray!
38:27Come back!
38:28Come back with those eggs!
38:29I do insist you return those eggs.
38:33I shall hide these eggs where you will never find them again.
38:40Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
38:42Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
38:49I shall hide these eggs where you'll never find them again.
38:55Ha, ha, ha, ha.
38:57That's exactly what Irontail said, and he meant it.
39:01Here, see for yourself.
39:03I shall hide these eggs where you'll never find them again.
39:14We've got to catch him.
39:16Pierre! Pierre!
39:19Pierre, why do you go off without your friend?
39:23Hang on, Bonnie.
39:28Can't go slow, Bonnie.
39:30I've got to catch Irontail.
39:31The whole future of April Valley depends on it.
39:37Pierre! Pierre!
39:39Come back for me.
39:42Antoine!
39:43Antoine, we forgot all about it.
39:45We must go back.
39:47But I can't.
39:49I can't. I don't know how to make it go backwards.
39:52Au revoir, mon ami! Au revoir!
39:59You ridiculous rabbit.
40:02You'll never catch me.
40:04Ha, ha, ha!
40:05Ha, ha, ha!
40:07Ha, ha, ha!
40:10What are you doing with those eggs?
40:12Who you know they belong to Peter Cottontail?
40:16Oh, why don't you stick to your own holiday?
40:22Hmm.
40:23Well, Santa got the egg basket back to Peter.
40:25And poor Peter, he couldn't even stop the Yestermorobil, not even to say thank you.
40:29I sure do miss Antoine.
40:34Peter thought he'd try being the New Year's Eve bunny.
40:37But he couldn't bring the Yestermorobil to a stop.
40:40It's no use.
40:41I'll never figure out how to run this thing.
40:44I guess we're lost.
40:45Lost up here in time.
40:47You never tried this one, Peter.
40:50It says stop.
40:52Huh?
40:53Hey, as a matter of fact, I was just about to try that button out.
40:56Oh, how beautiful.
41:04What is it?
41:06All those heart lanterns.
41:08It must be a St. Valentine's Day skating party.
41:11Sure, that's it.
41:12Bonnie, do you know what I'm gonna do?
41:14Don't tell me.
41:16Let me guess.
41:17Ha, ha, ha, ha!
41:21Nobody can resist a Valentine's Day egg.
41:24Excuse me.
41:26Huh?
41:27Oh, hi.
41:29I hate to bother you, but could you help me put my skates on?
41:33Oh, no bother at all.
41:35My name's Donna.
41:37Hi, Donna.
41:38Oh, I recognize you from your picture in the paper.
41:42You're Peter Cottontail.
41:44Oh, no, my name's Harold.
41:46Uh, Harold Hassenpfeffer.
41:49Oh, I guess I'm Peter Cottontail.
41:52Well, you shouldn't be ashamed.
41:53Anybody can make one mistake.
41:55You just overslept.
41:57Gee, that's a kind thing to say.
42:00I mean it.
42:01Yeah.
42:03Yeah.
42:04Donna, would you skate with me?
42:06I'd love to.
42:07But aren't you going somewhere with those eggs?
42:09Oh, they can wait.
42:11Here for you.
42:13Oh, Peter, a Valentine.
42:15I'll leave it here with the others where it'll be safe.
42:19I've got a paper heart that's got your name up on it.
42:24I've written a sonnet and set it to music.
42:29My heart's the drummer.
42:32Come and listen to it playing.
42:34It seems to be saying,
42:37Be mine today.
42:40Be mine today.
42:43Not another day.
42:45Be mine today.
42:47But just today.
42:49For just a 24 hour day.
42:52Be mine.
42:53Oh, let me hear you say that you'll be mine.
42:56Can't wait another day.
42:58My Valentine.
43:00Valentine.
43:01Be mine today.
43:07Today's the day for good old-fashioned turtle dovin'.
43:11For songs about lovin'.
43:13For hearin'.
43:14For reason.
43:17So I'll be yours for just today and not tomorrow.
43:22My heart you can borrow.
43:24For just today.
43:28I'm yours today.
43:30Not another day.
43:32I'm yours today.
43:35I'm yours today.
43:35But just today.
43:37For just a 24 hour day.
43:39Be mine.
43:40Oh, let me hear you say that you'll be mine.
43:43Can't wait another day.
43:45My Valentine.
43:48Valentine.
43:49Be mine today.
43:54La, la, la, la, la.
43:56What luck.
43:58I knew I'd find Peter and his eggs.
44:01If I just kept waiting for all the holidays.
44:07Now let me see.
44:08Where's my book of evil spells?
44:11Here it is.
44:12Oh, that's a good one.
44:14The evil old bunny found a spell which would ruin the eggs for good
44:19and make them so that no one would ever want them.
44:23He turned them all green.
44:27Oh, and were they ever green.
44:30A real greeny green.
44:32All the way through.
44:34The shells were green.
44:36The yolks were green.
44:37Even the whites were green.
44:40Naturally, nobody at the Valentine party wanted green eggs.
44:44Even Donna gave hers back.
44:46So poor Peter and little Bonnie were forced to move on to the next holiday.
44:51George Washington always had green eggs.
44:54Why, they were traditional at Mount Vernon when he chopped down the lime tree.
44:59Remember?
45:01Washington couldn't tell a fib.
45:03I can't say the same for Georgie bunnies.
45:07Oh, Peter.
45:08You've just about run out of holidays.
45:11And it's all my fault.
45:13If I didn't go to that party in the first place, I wouldn't have overslept.
45:16And if I didn't tell so many fibs, lots of people would have taken my eggs.
45:22But now it's hopeless.
45:24Who wants green eggs?
45:26Oh, Peter, Peter, the most important thing is that you just don't give up hope.
45:34In the puzzle of life, there is one piece that keeps it together.
45:40Where is the stormy weather?
45:42The stormy weather?
45:43It's the hard one to place And the best one to chase
45:50The stormy weather?
45:55It's the hard one to place And the best one to chase
46:04The stormy weather.
46:07From the sound that you're on
46:11Heartbeat is making
46:16If you find that it's lost
46:18Well, the puzzle cannot be completed
46:25For that peace is called hope
46:28And without a cause is defeated
46:35When you're lost in the maze
46:38Of the tricks that life plays
46:40Be reminded
46:44In the puzzle of life
46:46Hope is there, listen close
46:50And you will find it
46:54And you will find it
46:58And you will find it
47:09What's that music?
47:11Gee, Mr. Sassafras is right
47:14I vow that if only I can find a way to give my eggs
47:18I'll never, never, never tell another thing
47:21And I'll always tend to my duty before pleasure
47:24I promise
47:25I promise
47:27It's some kind of a parade
47:29Must be another holiday
47:31But who, who would want green eggs?
47:34Huh?
47:35Holiday?
47:36Oh, must be safe
47:39What's the matter?
47:42Is your talker stuck?
47:43Oh, Bonnie, Bonnie
47:44Me prayers have been answered
47:46Glory be in vigora
47:47Tis St. Patrick's Day
47:54Sure and tis

47:58Shamrock eggs right here
48:00Free for the asking they are
48:01And as green as the Emerald Isle
48:03All the way through
48:05And that for once
48:06Is no fib
48:17Well, Peter Shamrock eggs
48:19Were the hit of the St. Patrick's Day parade
48:21And needless to say
48:22Peter won the contest finally, hands down
