-How do I know this isn't a trick?

You don't.

You just have to trust me.

Trust us.

So you really are talking?

No. Like you said,

you chilled out, man. You're cool now.

And you're listening to your heart.

That's what you're hearing.

McGregor! Unlock this door!

Now listen to your heart.

It's telling you to turn left,

run six paces to that window,

break it open,

and let's get the heck out of here!

McGregor! Open up!

McGregor!

And so, the two former enemies

and one of their cousins

set out across the country,

a ticking clock their common adversary.

It was dangerous, gutsy, convoluted,

and, in a story like this,

pretty much a journey

guaranteed to succeed.

So lets just hit the highlights.

Everybody, hang on!

Now!

Headlights.

What?

They're not even on.

Come on! This is ridiculous.

Okay. Come on. Get out of here. Go.

I'm fine! I'm fine!

Thomas?

What are you doing?

You once said

that everyone has a place in this world.

Well, this is your place,

and you shouldn't have to leave

because of something I did.

Were they with you?

Yes. They came to London.

-"They came to London"?

-Yes.

To talk me into coming back.

Well, they probably didn't talk.

It was probably all in my head.

Well... No. But that's not the point.

You shouldn't have to leave.

I'm sorry for everything that I did.

And I love you, Bea.

You tried to kill them.

You blew up their home.

You blew up my home.

'Cause I got caught up

in everything, you know?

I got caught up in ourfight.

"Our ght?

You're still going on about this.

Pathetic.

Come on, Betty, let's go.

It was my fault.

I take full responsibility.

My hero.

Finally admitting

that he blew up the burrow.

Not, as you previously claimed,

the button on the detonator

being pushed by a rabbit!

Hello, sweetie.

Are you okay?

You were a part of this?

I told you!

I did tell you.

I can't believe this.

It's a lot to process.

-It really is.

-Yes.

Please forgive us.

You mind moving all this out the way?

I mean, this is our house and all.

Perfect country gem.

My stupid sister's

going to be so jealous.

I'm sorry.

The manor's no longerfor sale.

Yeah, 'cause it's already

been sold. We bought it.

-Sorry, who are you?

-I'm the man who sold it.

And also the man

who is canceling the sale.

No. Sales final.

You sold it already?

-Yes, but I...

-You and your husband

-need to move off now.

-I'm not her husband.

I just-- We're-- Although...

-Get up.

-Bea...

Come on.

There's only one way out of this.

-You with me?

-Yep.

-Absolutely.

-Always.

-Of course.

-Love you guys.

Shall we? It's so cute.

It's like a 3D version of

a storybook, really.

What is that?

A gross little goblin or something.

Clear off!

We'll get pest control.

-Darling.

-Darling.

No. No, no.

Absolutely not.

-Nah, you can have it.

-We'll keep the deposit.

-Bye!

-Bye! Lovely couple.

So down-to-earth.

What a mess you made.

Well done.

Did you just wink at him?

I didn't know you could do that.

There's a lot of things they can do

that you don't know about.

A lot of things.

Lifes tough when

you're scared and small

Still tough when you're big and tall

Or wrong side of McGregor's wall

And suddenly your heart

is like a tennis ball

Up and down, side to side

Served so hard youd think you'd died

No love for you

Help yourselves, sweeties.

Within reason.

No wall could ever split us up

Our love s forever

No hate

Streaker!

I'm so sorry this keeps happening.

Mind if I give it a go?

Life's rough when you feel confused

Still rough when you hear the news

That each day got to pick and choose

The same old sides

the mes and yous

But don 't be sad, you're welcome here

Even certain carnivores are in the clear

I promise you

Wind blows and heaven knows

That sun can turn to rain

There '3 nothing much to fear though

Doors close and we all know

That love can turn to pain

So lets be each others heroes

No gate

No wall could ever split us up

Our love s forever

No hate

No fear could ever keep us down

We 7! stick together

Life's nice on a sunny day

French press and a plate of hay

But some days can't escape the fray

Crazily careening like a bird of prey

This old house is never looked

Even TiggyWinkles needn't need to knock

I promise you

No gate

No wall could ever split us up

Our love s forever

No hate

No fear could ever keep us down

We 7! stick together

Did everyone live happily ever after?

Well, of course.

It's the law in these storybooks.

All you have to do is toss and fluff.

Toss and uff. Very simple.

You give it a go.

How's it going? Yes?

It's good. Going really well.

How do I know all this?

I lived through it.

Grew up a little, lost my lisp,

and found my voice.

Wake up, Rooster!

I'm telling a story here!

Sorry, I've been up since the

crack of dawn with these kids!

And they're the best thing

that's ever happened to me.

That was a great story, Flopsy.

What are you gonna call it?

I'm calling it,

"The Tale of Peter Rabbit."

I love it. But how about

"The Tale of Peter, Flopsy, Mopsy,

"Cotton-Tail, and Benjamin:

A Loving Family?

Or maybe you had it

right the rst time.

Peter Rabbit."

No gate

No wall could ever split us up

Our love s forever

No hate

No fear could ever keep us down

We 7! stick together
