[THEME MUSIC] THEME SONG: Let's go!
Peter Rabbit.
Go on a run.
Run for our lives.
We'll tear a hole in every fence and every wall.
Peter Rabbit.
Run through the fields, run wild and free,
and get a piece of every radish that we see.
Peter Rabbit.
Go day and night.
Go for it all.
It's time to fly, come on, the winds begun to blow.
Let's go!
'Cause you and I, we weren't made for going slow.
Let's go!
Adventure calls, the game is on.
Come on!
Let's go!
Peter rabbit.
Let's go!
Peter Rabbit.
Let's go!
Peter Rabbit. Whoo!
Let's go!
NARRATOR: The tale of two enemies.
MR. MCGREGOR: Stop there, you wee thieves!
Those are my carrots!
Come back here, robbers!
[PANTING]
[GASP]
[SCREAMS]
[MEOWS]
LILY BOBTAIL: Peter!
[MEOWS]
OK.
I think we're safe.
I beg to differ.
[SHOUTS]
Tonight, I shall feast on wild rabbits with garlic potatoes
and--
Carrots?
That's a splendid idea!
All right.
Now we're safe.
[SIGHS]
[GROWLS]
[SCREAMS]
I've got to stop saying that.
How many times have I told you?
Never, ever, wake me up!
[SHOUTING]
What a day!
Keep still please, Benjamin.
Is it just me or are you tired of being
chased around all the time?
That's just the way nature works.
It's called the food chain.
Bad tempered badger like Tommy Brock and frightening foxes
like Mr. Tod both chase rabbits, and rabbits chase--
Uh, radish?
Exactly!
Benjamin.
[SIGHS] It's the way the woods work.
Big things chase this whole thing, see?
You can't change it.
If there's one word I don't like, it's can't.
I've got an idea.
But it'll take some work.
I just eat and so--
Follow me!
Woo hoo!
Come on!
Whoa!
[SCREAMS]
Woo hoo!
[SHOUTING]
I love worms.
They're so squiggly.
I love worms.
Don't much of a singer, is he?
TOMMY BROCK: They're so squiggly.
In my tummy.
Peter, if you just tell us what we're doing here.
Ready?
Of course, I'm ready.
What am I doing again?
Throw it!
Who's there?
Huh!
Huh?
What are you doing?
Leaving a trail for Tommy Brock.
And why exactly are we stealing Tommy Brock's worms?
To make him stop chasing us.
But if we steal his ones, of course he's going to chase us.
Not if he thinks someone else stole it
and that someone is him.
Ah.
Yes.
I see.
Very good.
[LAUGHS] Yes.
That's really clever, Peter.
You don't get the plan at all, do you?
No.
Tommy Brock will be so busy chasing Mr. Tod,
because he'd think Mr. Tod took his worms
that you won't chase us.
That really is clever.
The woods will be safe to play in.
Well then, what are we waiting for?
Let's hop to it.
Mr. Tod's cane.
This even better.
Lily, have you got any elastic in your pocket?
A magnifying glass.
A pencil.
Button collections.
So that's where it went.
Aha!
Elastic.
Just in case pocket, just in case.
Perfect!
Come on.
Follow me.
What's he up to now?
Haven't a clue.
There's one of my worms.
Oh!
There's another one!
Here.
Hold tight.
Just waiting to see Mr. Tod's cane fly.
left a bit, right a bit, and fire!
[WHOOSH]
Yes!
Right into Tommy Brock's sack.
Why do we want Mr. Tod to think that Tommy
Brock stole his cane?
Because what better way to get our enemies to stop bothering
us than give them new enemies.
each other.
Great thinking, Peter!
And there's another one of my worms, and another.
Oh!
Oi!
Watch where you're--
Oh!
My bucket!
You Stole it!
There are my worms.
I most certainly did not!
But you stole my cane.
You thief!
Liar!
I will not let some blundering badger stand here
and accuse me of petty theft.
On guard, sir!
Oh, you want a fight?
I'll give you a fight, fox!
[SCREAMS]
Come back!
Stay away from me!
Nasty badger.
It works!
[LAUGHTER]
With those two chasing each other, they won't chase us.
We are finally safe.
The food chain is broken.
I thank you.
[MUSIC - STUART KOLLMORGEN, "PLAY RABBIT PLAY"]
(SINGING) Play, rabbit play.
Let's hop to it, adventures on the way.
Play rabbit play.
Across the fields, come on now, what do you say?
The sun is blazing.
And life's amazing.
And everything is fresh and new!
Play rabbit play.
Embrace your day.
There's a whole wide world just waiting there for you.
[PANTING]
Oh.
Comeback here you--
you thieving fox.
May-- may I suggest we resume this chase
after we both had some sleep?
Yeah.
Go-- good idea.
In the same time, same place tomorrow.
Agreed.
Wait!
What's that?
Huh?
It's my back, isn't it?
Not your back, you lumbering oaf!
This, here.
Look!
Blue thread.
Who do we know who wears blue?
Um--
Oh.
Who would want to keep us so busy chasing each other we
wouldn't chase him?
Peter Rabbit!
[SIGHS] Isn't this a great day, Lily?
Not a care in the world.
Oh, really?
[SCREAMS] [GRUNTS]
[GROWLS]
PETER RABBIT: [SCREAMS]
Peter?
Uh, Peter?
Oh, I do so love a good barbecue.
Me too.
Oh.
I know a really good blackberry bush for dessert,
if I can just show you.
[GROANS]
TOMMY BROCK: Keep still!
No More tricks today, Peter!
Now how do you like your rabbit, Mr. Brock?
Roasted?
Fried?
I'm more of a worm's bloke myself.
Worms?
Oh, so uncivilised!
Maybe you should leave the cooking to me.
Just hold onto that wriggling rabbit.
He is our main course, after all.
[LAUGHS]
And you two, I need your help.
This is bad.
Really, really bad.
We've got to help him.
Yeah.
But remember the food chain, Benjamin.
We're far too small to take on those two.
We need someone much bigger.
Someone like Mr. McGregor.
M-- McGregor?
How are you going to get M--
McGregor?
Come on!
But how do we get Mr. McGregor to chase
Mr. Tod and Tommy Brock?
[GASP] There!
Huh?
What?
What do we want his boots for?
No, Mr. Brock.
We shall not chuck a few worms in to spice it up!
You haven't even tried one.
Come on, you two.
Hurry!
MR. TOD: No!
No worms.
No worms, no deal!
Hey!
Hey, hey, hey.
I've got an idea.
Why don't we all go home, sleep on it,
and then we can cook me tomorrow?
Agreed?
Agreed.
What?
Think I'm dumb do you, rabbit?
Oh, well.
Dinner time!
You don't really want to eat me, do you?
Young rabbits are very chewy, you know?
Oh!
Oh.
[FOOTSTEPS]
What's that?
I know that sound anywhere.
It's--
[GASP] Mr. McGregor!
Run!
Don't believe it.
It's just another one of your tricks, eh?
BENJAMIN: If there's one thing I hate more than rabbits,
it's smelly, badger like you!
[GASP] Oh!
[THUD]
[GASP]
[LAUGHS] Not bad, huh?
Whew!
If there's one thing I hate more than rabbits,
it's smelly badgers like you!
[LAUGHTER]
I never thought I'd be so happy to see
Mr. McGregor's boots.
[LAUGHTER]
Just like I told you, that's the food chain.
Big things chase little things.
Always the way.
BENJAMIN: Help!
It's after me!
[SHOUTS]
[LAUGHTER]
Well, nearly always.
[LAUGHTER]
