== Transcript ==
Mouse: Have you ever lost something and thought you'd never find it again?
It seems like everyone needed to find something today.
It all started when my friend Rabbit and I were practicing our funny walks.
Rabbit: I call this the wiggly, woggly. 
Mouse: This one's the swiggle, swaggle.
Rabbit: The twirly bird.
Mouse: The bounceroonie!
Huh?
Rabbit: Mouse, your bouncing is hoptastic.
Mouse: Whee!
Why are we bouncing so high?
Rabbit: We must be in a bouncy bog.
Mouse: But bogs usually don't...
Whoo!
... bounce.
Rabbit: I know.
Woo-hoo!
Bogs are usually wet and squishy, but this one is super bouncy.
Mouse: Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Uh, hi! I'm Mouse.
Woo-hoo!
Hazel: Ugh. 
Where could they be?
Where? Where? Where?
Hi, guys!
Pearl: Hazel's in a feather flap.
Amber: Hazel doesn't have feathers.
Coral: You mean a furfuffle.
Jade: And we want to know why, Hazel.
Hazel: I've lost my acorns, that's why!
I gathered a big pile this morning and now I can't remember where I put them.
I've looked, but I can't find them!
Jade: Uh-oh.
Pearl: We must help, Hazel.
Amber: Let's tell her not to worry.
Coral: Or panic.
Jade: Let's play our thing finding game.
Hazel: A thing finding game?
Coral: Good idea.
We'll say words that are important to help you remember.
Pearl: And you say words back to us.
Jade: Any word you think of.
Let's start.
Hazel: OK, but I'm not sure...
Coral: Acorn.
Hazel: Lost.
Amber: Up.
Hazel: Down.
Pearl: In.
Hazel: Out.
Jade: Over.
Hazel: Under.
That's it!
I store the acorns under something.
But what?
Jade: Tree.
Hazel: Trunk.
Pearl: Leaf.
Hazel: Branch.
Amber: Berry.
Hazel: Bush.
Yes! I stored them under a bush!
But the forest is full of bushes.
How will I know which bush?
Coral: Hmm, size?
Hazel: Medium.
Jade: Color?
Hazel: Green.
Pearl: Flowers?
Hazel: Yes.
Jade: Color?
Hazel: Red.
Amber: Noisy?
Pearl, Coral and Jade: Noisy?
Hazel: Wahoo!
Yes! It was noisy, because there were lots of dragonflies buzzing around!
Now I know where to find the acorns!
I just need to look for a green bush with red flowers with lots of dragonflies nearby.
You really helped me!
Thanks!
Pearl: We're good helpers.
Amber: And we had fun.
Coral: Let's play another game.
Jade: But we haven't lost anything.
Mouse: Whee!
Rabbit: Whoa!
Mouse: Whee!
Rabbit: Whoa! 
Leaping lettuce.
This is the bounciest bog I've ever bounced on.
Mouse: Too bad Thunder isn't here.
He loves to bounce.
Rabbit: Well, I'll be thumped.
So he does.
Let's go get him.
Mouse: Rabbit? 
What if we can't find our way back here?
Rabbit: Hmm... 
That is a problem.
How can we find our way back to the bog?
Let's hop-think.
Mouse: This is a real tail twitcher.
Rabbit: And an ear scratcher.
Hmm...
Hang on a hop.
What if we walk backwards?
Then when we want to come back, we'll walk forward.
See?
Mouse: Let's do it.
Oomph. Oof!
Whoa!
Rabbit: Oh thump.
That didn't work.
Mouse: But it was lots of fun.
Rabbit: I have another idea.
Since we can't bring Thunder to the bog, what if we bring the bog to, Thunder.
Mouse: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Rabbit: One, two, three... pull!
Mouse: Whoa!
Look, Rabbit!
A trail!
Rolling rutabagas!
We can use these acorns to leave a trail on the way to find, Thunder.
Then we can follow the trail back.
Rabbit: Thumpeka! 
We did it!
Mouse, we did it!
Hazel: Green bush, red flowers, dragonflies.
Green bush, red flowers, dragonflies.
Red bush, green flowers...
No. Green bush, dragon flowers, red flying dragons...
No! Hazel! 
Remember Coral said not to panic.
Think of the game.
Bush... green! 
Flowers... red! 
Noisy... dragonflies.
That's better.
Mouse: Uh-oh.
Ah.
Hazel: Oh.
No bush.
No red flowers.
No dragonflies.
These are not my lost acorns.
But I can always do with a few more.
Mouse: Soggy salamanders!
We've run out of acorns.
Rabbit: We'll just have to find Thunder from here.
Mouse: Thunder really likes singing.
Maybe we can sing and he'll hear us.
Rabbit: Or we could do the thumpa-thumpa dance.
That's Thunder's favorite.
Mouse: Or maybe we should just call his name out really loud.
Rabbit and Mouse: Hi, Thunder.
Thunder?
Mouse: Thunder! Thunder! 
We found you!
Thunder: Was I lost?
Mouse: Well, no.
Not exactly.
Thunder: Oh!
Mouse: Thunder! 
We have a surprise for you!
Thunder: A surprise?
I can do surprises!
Rabbit: Do you see these acorns?
They lead to your surprise.
Thunder: Well, toot my horn!
Let's follow them.
Mouse: Uh-oh...
Hazel?
Hazel: Look what I found!
All laid out in a nice row for me to pick up.
Uh, is there a problem?
Rabbit: Well, maybe a little one.
Mouse: Little?
How about a big problem? 
A huge problem.
We put those acorns in a row, so we could follow them back.
Hazel: An acorn trail.
Clever! 
But not a problem.
I can tell you where I picked up each acorn.
Just follow me.
I picked one up near that toadstool. 
And one near this dandelion.
Mouse: But how do you remember that?
Rabbit: Hazel has a great memory.
I bet she never loses anything.
Hazel: Not true.
Everybody loses something sometime.
I've lost some acorns and the Gibble Goose girls helped me with a thing finding game.
But I don't need a game now, because the things I see help me.
I picked another one from over there by that rock.
Thunder: Whoa!
Hazel: And I sneezed when I picked up one here, because that weed tickled my nose.
Uh-oh.
Is it this way? 
Or that way?
I can't remember.
Mouse: Maybe I can.
I'm gonna do what I did before.
Maybe that will help me remember.
We go... thataway!
Hazel: Quaking acorns.
Nothing looks the same.
Mouse: I don't remember this at all.
Rabbit: Hmm, no bog.
Hazel: Is that the surprise?
Mouse: Yes. The bounciest bog you ever bounced on.
Thunder will love it. 
If we ever find it.
Rabbit: We'll find it.
We just need a little hop-think first.
How can we find the bog without the acorn trail?
Rabbit, Mouse and Hazel: Hmm?
Rabbit: Maybe we should all go in different directions?
Hazel: Yes, one of us will find the bog.
Mouse: But when whoever finds it comes back to get the others, they might lose it again.
Rabbit, Mouse and Hazel: Hmm?
Thunder: Ooh! You're doing a hop-think.
I can do hop-thinking.
Rabbit, Mouse, Hazel and Thunder: Hmm?
Thunder: Uh, what are we hop-thinking about?
Rabbit: We've lost your surprise.
Mouse: It was a good surprise, too! 
A bouncing bog.
Thunder: Hmm, is it the bounciest bog you ever bounced on?
Mouse: That's the one.
Thunder: Oh! It's just over there.
Rabbit: Well, I'll be thumped.
Thunder: I always come here to play with the dragonflies.
It's their favorite place.
Mouse: Wandering whiskers!
This is it.
Hazel: This is it!
Look! A green bush with red flowers and lots of dragonflies.
But my acorns are gone.
Mouse: They were your acorns?
We used them to make the trail.
Hazel: I thought they looked familiar.
This time I won't forget where I put them, because who could forget a bouncing bog.
Mouse: You see, everyone found what they were looking for.
Hazel used the thing finding game and found her acorns.
Rabbit and I figured out how to find our way back to the bouncing bog.
We all helped each other and... we didn't panic.
Aah!
All: Whoa! Weehee! Woo-hoo!
