- I can offer you a kurguru.

- No, thank you.

We'd like such a bird as

nobody has never been seen.

Sad, that all the chatter-birds are dead.

- Chatter-birds?

- Yes.

- What was special about these birds?

- They could speak and fly amongst the stars.

I have a chatter-bird to offer you.

That's great, but why are we whispering?

- Because I'm afraid.

- Of what?

Recently, a badly injured and barely living

chatter-bird flew into my home.

I left it.

And yesterday a man from Earth came

and asked to buy a chatter-bird.

I refused him.

He became angry and said we cannot

live with Chatterers.

Ah, such a bird was sitting on the

shoulder of Captain Kim.

- If you're not afraid, take him.

- We're not afraid.

Farewell, friend, farewell.

An ambush!

- Really?

- Unfortunately, yes.

Zelonii, can you hear me?

Zelonii, we need your help!

I hear you, but I'm repairing the ship.

Navigator Basov!

Take that! And that!

Papa, stand firm!

Alice, don't let him go!

They are robots - radio controlled.

Well there you are, I warned you.

That's cool!

Now I can peep in the excercise books

of the star pupils!

- Oh! where did you spring from?

- well, I...

Where did you spring from?

Are you going to fly, Kim? Mm, yes...

It will be difficult, Kin - send the chatter-bird...

I've come to help...

Thank you, Buran...

- These are the voices of the brave captains.

- That means that this is their very chatterer!

Head for the Medusa system...

Papa, we must fly there.

Captain Kim has sent the chatter-bird for help.

It's dangerous.

It would be better to summon a patrol ship

from the Earth to help.

- Someone's there.

- Excuse me...

Please accept this gift from me.

It's a diamond turtle.

How beautiful!

But we have nothing to give you in return.

- Give me that parrot.

- It's not available.

Okay, then take this.

Goodbye. We shall meet again.

Remember, my name is Veselchak.

Well! I don't like this Veselchak.

Set a course for the Medusa system.

Medusa system, Medusa...

So, it's decided - we head for the Medusa system.

hurrah

Oh, but what about the cake for Kolya?

- I warned you...

- It doesn't matter.

The cake will go with Navigator Basov.

He's flying to Aldebran.

We're receiving a distress signal from Shelezyaka.

Warning,warning! We have an epidemic.

Help us, anybody who can.

If you are able, help us.

Planet Shelezyaka.

No minerals, no water,

no vegetation.

Occupied by robots.

Planet Shelezyaka.

No minerals, no water,

no vegetation.

Occupied by robots.

They need help...

Come up the stairs, come up the stairs.

Thank you for coming.

Don't thin... Don't thin... aa...

Than... thank... you...

Freshly greased...

We'll go and have a look

at what's happened to them.

Probably, I - am the - last.

They are alive, but paralised.

- What now?

- I just don't know.

- How are you doing?

- Ahh...

Ahh... Thank you, good people!

You saved-d-d me...

Hello, courageous bird!

How do you know the chatter-bird?

He flew to us once

with a broken wing.

We replaced it with an artificial one.

And recently a man flew here,

looking for the courageous bird.

- Wearing a cap?

- Wearing a cap.

It's all clear. That was Verkhovtsev.

When he found out we'd cured the bird,

he became terribly angry.

And after he left -

the epidemic started.

He poured diamond dust into your greasing tanks.

The grease needs changing.

You're a genius!

Stay here!

Be our engineering genius.

Thank you. But I have enough to worry about already.

Well then, I'll go and change the grease.

The first planet of the Medusa system.

Nothing for us to do here.

The second planet of the Medusa system.

We land here.

'The Blue Seagull'

Everything's alright.

Now there's nobody to rescue.

Captain Kim! Wait!

It was a mirage.

Now, get to know

the inhabitants of this planet.

They are able to take on the form of what ever they saw.

Chatter-bird - is this the planet or not?

Look on the third planet,

Look on the third planet.

Birds can't reason.

- And captains can?

- They can and still do.

Well then, that means everything is correct.

Alright my friends, let's go.

Fly to the third planet!

Wait!

It's all too pretty here. Just wait for trouble.

Nothing will happen to us.

Man is the Tsar of Nature.

Only animals don't know that,

they are illiterate.

Look out!

- Are you playing hide and seek?

- Hide and seek?

Look here, Tsar of Nature,

that's the feather of the Krok bird.

Don't step out of the ship. Understand?

- Understood, but I have an idea...

- The idea can wait.

Alice, come back!

Alice!

Papa!

The birds didn't harm me.

We were playing, and were happy.

Why did you leave the ship,

like a little child.

- The chatter-bird and I went to find the captains.

- To find what? The captains are not here.

What do you mean, not here? Then what's this?

- Where did you get it?

- I found it in the nest.

Where the bird carried you.

Look, the chatterer is waiting for us.

Run after him!

Where on earth is the chatterer?

Mirrors - they've just sprung up!

Keep back or you'll break them.

We'll put this mirror on the 'Pegasus'.

Zelonii! There in the mirror - you!

The image is running backwards.

It's all clear.

The mirror's made of a thin film.

When the flower is alive,

it records all that it sees.

And now these films

evaporate one after the other.

Ah, look! It's Verkhovtsev!

And Veselchak is with him.

So, they know each other.

Then they are somewhere here.

I warned you.

I can't hold on any more...

I can't hold on any more...

- He saw Captain Kim!

- The Captain is here somewhere.

Who has done this?

Silly thing, why did you run away?

You're a rare animal.

Well, give it to me.

It's a masterpiece of hostile technology.

And it has destroyed the flowers.

This appears to be a microphone...

Which means that they heard everything.

Let's return to the mirror glade.

It's safer there.

Where have all the mirrors gone?

It'll all end badly.

- Alice?

- I'm here.

I warned you!

Oh! I'll never forgive myself!

Calm down, Zelonii, we'll be alright.

How did we get here?

Like in a teapot.

The roof opened, we dropped through,

then it closed.

Very like it.

The Blue Seagull!

Don't move! Hands up!

Where's the bird?

Look in the 'Pegasus'.

Yes, Sir!

How dare you!

Hunting chatterers is

strictly prohibited...

Chatterers strictly, strictly prohibited.

- Shut him up.

- As you ask...

Why did you drop him! Idiot!

I didn't drop him, Sir, something tripped me.

I'll trip you if you don't stand up.

I'll find the chatterer, and you

state our terms to him.

Consider it done!

Listen, Captain!

We have seized these two idiots.

So, if you don't give us the formula -

we shall now... despatch them.

Do it!

Stop!

Let me say a few words

to these people first.

You have a minute. I'm very kind.

Listen chatter-bird, do you know where the exit is?

Chatter-bird is distinguished

by its intellect and ingenuity...

By intellect and ingenuity...

These crooks found out that I have
