Pooh's Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin Page #3

Face it, Piglet, old pal,

you're just plain popular.

Some piglets have it,...

some donkeys don't.

[butterflies squeak]

Why, I believe, Piglet, they want

to take you home with them.

[chuckles]

It's very kind of them, I'm sure,

but I already have a home.

Oh, d-d-dear.

Piglet.

Don't Ieave.

I wouldn't if I couldn't, but I can't.

Jump, Piglet. We'II catch you,

Iikely as not.

I would if I could,

but they won't Iet me.

Perhaps you can ask your friends

to bring you back.

Why, yes.

But I don't know which way back is.

[chuckles] It's down here.

Look.

I'm afraid I'm too afraid to Iook.

Oh, if only Christopher Robin was here.

Christopher Robin.

Piglet, that's it.

He said all I have to do

is remember that you are...

bigger than a big Ieaf...

I mean, uh,

bolder when you're not green.

[sighs] Or...

Is any of this making you feel

any Iess afraid, Piglet?

I'm afraid not, Pooh.

Oh, bother.

Hm.

How to get a piglet down

who is very... up.

[butterflies squeak]

[Pooh] Oh, bother.

E-excuse me, b-but is that you, Pooh?

Yes, Piglet, it is.

Might we be coming down soon?

I believe so, Piglet.

Uh, how soon?

[Pooh] Very.

[mutters]

[shrieks]

That's throwin' your weight around,

Buddy Bear.

Imagine, being outnumbered

by those buggy boys a zillion to one.

What a guy.

Brave indeed. Now if you don't mind,

Crustopher Ribbon,

Ristopher Crobbin,

Rustopher Crobbin, is this way.

Are you all right, Piglet?

Yes, Pooh. Thank you.

Saving me was very brave of you.

But you're brave, too, Piglet.

Braver than...

something.

I am?

Oh, what thing is that?

I'm not sure, Piglet.

Oh, if only I could remember.

[narrator] This way and that way

the map led them,

to all the places

Christopher Robin wasn't.

But to none of the places he was.

And still Rabbit refused to realize the

map didn't know which way it was going.

So we first head east by south,

then south by east.

Of course, minus the magnetic variation,

plus the wind drift.

We clearly go...

this way!

I wonder if those

rather forbidding Iooking things

might be the Forbidden Mountains,

where Christopher Robin is.

[Piglet] You're right, Pooh.

[Tigger] You found 'em, Buddy Bear.

Excuse me.

The way to there is over here.

But, Rabbit, isn't that them,

over there?

Now, which are you going to believe,

this official map or your own eyes?

Look for yourself

and you'II see we're right on course.

It's all right there in black and white.

Why would anyone want to wander around

wondering which way to go

when they have a map to follow?

# A map is not a guess

An estimation or a hunch

# A feeling or a foolish intuition

# A map is a dependable, unwavering

# Inarguably accurate portrayer

# Of your position

# Never trust your ears,

your nose, your eyes

# Putting faith in them is most unwise

# Here's a phrase you all must memorize

# "In the printed word

is where truth lies "

Y es, but, Rabbit...

# Never trust your tummies,

your tails or toes

# You can't learn a thing

from any of those

# Here's another fact I must disclose

# From the mighty pen true wisdom flows

# If it says so

# Then it is so

# If it is so, well, so it is

# A thought's not fit to think

till it's printed in ink

# Then it says so

So it is

Y es, but I think...

# Never trust that thing

between your ears

# Brains will get you nowhere fast

My dears

# Haven't had a need for mine in years

# On the page is where the truth appears

# If it says so

Then it is so

# If it is so

So it is

# A thought's not fit to think

Till it's printed in ink

# Never differ from or doubt it

- Bother.

- # Or go anywhere without it

# Thank goodness we've got this

# So we don't need to fret about it

# If it says so

# So it is #

[shrieks] Oh, no! The map!

Get the map! With only half a map

we're... we're Iess than nowhere.

After that map!

I got it!

Don't have it.

I had it!

I don't have it now.

I want it again. I got it!

I ain't got it. I don't have it.

I got it! Wait, I'II get it...

No! I don't... I have it!

Hmm.

I wonder what's causing

this tail to fail.

Maybe it just doesn't

have what it takes.

[creaking]

Yikes!

Christopher Robin!

Tigger, of all the safer places to be...

I don't think this is one.

- You could fall.

- Yeah.

Well, you know what they say.

What doesn't bounce up

has got to fall down.

- [Iaughs]

- [creaking]

Uh... there's no time for this.

We've had too many delays.

So you just bounce out of there

this moment.

[Iaughs] No way.

The wind isn't right.

But there isn't any wind.

OK, OK, you've got me. [sobs]

The truth is... [whimpers]

my tail... just doesn't have...

enough strength.

[sobs]

Oh. [chuckles]

Don't worry, Tigger,

Christopher Robin said

I just have to remember you're...

taller than a beam.

Really?

Or was it "slower than whipped cream?"

Do you feel any bouncier now?

Nope.

Oh... [chuckles]

Perhaps your tail just needs a hand.

Could you... bounce up this far?

Pooh Bear!

Ooh. How about now?

No, no, no. Thanks for trying.

I'm goin' out the way I came in.

[sobs]

A second-rate bouncer.

[creaking]

Piglet!

[snorts, sobs]

Um... Uh, Tigger.

Hm?

Oh... OK.

Look at the biceps on that bear.

I don't deserve to dangle

from the same precipice.

[creaking]

[muffled]

What's Donkey Boy saying?

I said "Ouch."

[all scream]

[splash]

Yike!

Now, don't worry, Piglet, it's only me.

Oh.

Yike!

Now, don't worry, Piglet,

it's only Tigger and Rabbit and Eeyore.

The map! Whoo-hoo, we have it!

We can go now!

[distant growling]

Worry now, Piglet,

it's the skullasaurus.

I know we went over this way...

And I came across...

But then I... I Iost my way over...

And if I don't... I know...

Might you know which way

Christopher Robin is from here, Rabbit?

Uh, well... Uh, I mean the...

There's this way, of course.

Not that it's the right way.

We obviously want to go this way.

Though that way's further than farther

and nearer than not.

AIthough we can't rule out this way.

Now, if Christopher Robin was here,

what would he say?

Well, he'd say...

"That Rabbit can't function

in this humidity."

"It's not his fault.

This fog isn't even on the map."

"And that... [sobs]

that Rabbit is just not smart enough

to know where to go

or... what to do."

Oh. Christopher Robin says

"At a time Iike this...

all I have to do is remember..."

Remember what?

I forget.

But it's something Iike...

you're smarter when you're pink.

Does that help?

No. I don't know where we are

and where we aren't.

And I haven't known for hours.

[sighs] I've failed us all.

[footsteps]

I believe I have as well.

Let's face it,

without Christopher Robin,

we don't have a chance

of finding Christopher Robin.

Perhaps we might rest in there

until this mist is mostly... mistless.

[Eeyore] End of the road.

Nothin' to do.

And no hope of things getting better.

Sounds Iike Saturday night at my house.

[shivers]

- [snorting]

- [shrieks]

[mutters, Iaughs]

[snores]
