Title:
The Mysterious Polo Player.

Go, Neel! You got this!

So he has to hit the ball
into the goal

and then he gets...



A snack?

A point, Chikku,
a point.

That's how you get a point
in the game of polo.

Where'd it go?

No! Soggy samosas.

I can't believe
I missed that shot.

Watch and learn,
little brother.

There. A perfect goal.

Watch and learn.

Sorry, Veer, no time.

I'm headed to the
town park to play polo.

Park?
Why in the world

would you play polo
in the town park?

Priya and I started
our own team.

Wanna play with us?

Mira, I can't play
on your team.

I'm a prince.

Well, I'm a prince,
and I'm playing on her team.

Some princes
have responsibilities.

Like a royal lunch
to attend.

Okay.

But you're missing out
on a great time, Veer.

Come on, everyone.

Town park team?

Please.

Priya, you have truly
outdone yourself.

If we're going to
have a polo team,

our team is
gonna have style.

Uh, does this helmet
come in any other colors,

like maybe pink?

Pinky, I know
you love pink,

but our team color
is blue.

And check it out.

Priya painted the balls
to match.

I'm all about
the details.

Hey, uh, Mr. Pony,
you're going the wrong way.

Wrong way!

About face,
Mr. Pony!

Mira, we got the ponies.

Great. We have
everything we need.

Okay, use your mallet

to hit the ball
into that goal.

Let's play!

Leg over...
Whoa! Oof!

Whoa!

I got it.

Soggy samosas.
I missed again.

Is this right?

Pinky, come back!
Where are you going?

Whoo!
I made a shot.

Except it's
the wrong goal.

Seems like we're having

a really hard time
playing together.

It's gonna take more than
helmets, balls and ponies

to make our team
play well.

What is it going to take?

Whoa!

It will take a miracle.

Hmm?

Hi. Are you here
to play with us?

Why is he grunting?

You got me.

Maybe he speaks
in grunts.

Oh. Oh, okay, okay.

I love speaking
in grunts, too.

That means
"my name is Pinky."

These are my friends.
What's your name?

Well, whatever his name is,
let's play!

Oh, yeah. Now I can see
where I'm going.

Thanks.

Mmm-mmm.

Oh. I'm bringing
my mallet too high.

I get it.

I made the shot.

I can't believe
I made the shot.

Thank you, uh,
whoever you are.

I got it, I got it!

Mmm-mmm.

Oh, you're right.
It's the wrong goal.

I scored!
And in the right goal!

You guys,
we're playing so well.

Yeah. Thank you, um...
Thanks.

Hmm?

Was it something
I grunted?

Hey!
Where are you going?

We were
just getting kinda good.

That means "please stay"
in grunt.

Guess he didn't
hear me.

We need that player
on our team.

Yeah, we play so much better
when he's here.

And we don't have to
chase so many balls.

There's only one thing
we can do.

Find him so we can ask
him to be on our team.

We are on the case of
the Mysterious Polo Player.

How are we
going to find him?

We don't know
where he lives

or his name
or anything.

True, but we do
have this,

a boot he left behind.

How does that boot
help us?

All we have to do is find the boy
with the matching boot

and we'll know
we found him.

But how, Mira?

Yeah. It's not like we
can just go door to door

asking people
if they lost a boot.

Why not?

It's a great idea, Priya.

Let's head into town and
start knocking on doors.

I can make some posters
to hang in the marketplace,

in case anyone comes
looking for a lost boot.

That means "I'll help."

We are going to search
the whole town

until we find the boy
with the missing boot.

- I don't think so.

No, not me.
I haven't seen him.

No luck.

What now, Mira?
Maybe the boot can help us.

Circles and triangles.

That's an
interesting pattern.

So,
if we find his boot prints on the ground,

we can follow them to
figure out where he went?

Exactly.

Let's split up and
search for the boot prints.

The boot prints go this way,

then they stop right here.

I don't see
any more, Mira.

- Nothing.
- Nothing.

It doesn't make any sense.

He couldn't have
just disappeared.

Wait!
What?

I think that's a print.

It could be a match.

Excuse me, Uncle.

May we examine the
boot print on your boat?

Of course, Mira.

The Royal Detective
is always welcome

to investigate my boat.

It's a perfect match!

- Yes!
- Yes!

Did a boy with his
face covered like this

ride in your water taxi
earlier today?

Indeed he did.

In fact, he was
in such a hurry,

he nearly knocked me into
the river when he got on.

Great!

Oh, I mean about
finding him.

Not about almost knocking
you into the river, Uncle.

Where did you
take him?

- To the palace.
- The palace?

So maybe he's the son
of a royal guard.

Or of a lady-in-waiting.

We need to get to the palace
and find out.

But how will we
get there?

Chikku, we are standing
on a boat!

Ooh. Convenient.

Next stop, the palace!

- Thanks for the ride, sir.
- My pleasure.

Mira, I see a boot print
over here.

And I smell something.

Something glorious!

There's a royal lunch
in the courtyard today.

I bet that's what
you're smelling.

It's definitely a match.

Let's check out the trail.

And the menu.

The trail ends...
Here.

You were right, Neel.
It is a royal lunch.

What do we do now?

Well, Neel, you might
consider changing

into something more
appropriate for the occasion.

I'm not here to go
to the royal lunch, Veer.

We're on a case.

Speaking of cases,
what's the story with leftovers?

Hmm. We better
investigate.

Aah!

Uh, Chikku,
you've turned into a boot!

The matching boot.

Neel, this is
a break in the case.

How is that
a break in the case?

We've got two boots,
but no player.

Veer, someone showed up
at the park

and played polo
with our team.

We're trying to find him.

R-Really?

But why would you
want to find him?

Because he was incredible.

He made all of us
play so much better.

We really want him
to join our team.

Fascinating.

That's just fascinating.

Well, good luck
with that!

Veer,
you dropped something.

Thanks, Mira.

Wait! I know
who the mystery player is.

- You do?
- You do?

Prince Veer, could I have
just a moment of your time?

Mira, I have
responsibilities.

It'll just take a minute.

Um, okay.

Let's think this through.

After the mystery player
ran away,

we followed the boot prints
into the boat

and then to the palace.

But I wasn't sure
who it could be

until that ball fell out
of your coat, Prince Veer.

It's one of the special balls

that Priya painted blue
just for our polo team.

Veer, why do you have
a ball from our team?

Because I'm
the mystery player!

It was me!

Veer, you're
the mystery player?

- What? - What?
- Yes. You're right, Mira.

About everything.

But why did you
wear a disguise?

Yeah. Anyone can
play in our team.

When you told me
about your team,

I really wanted to play,
but I can't.

Why not?

Because I'm
not just a prince.

I'm the future king
of Jalpur.

- Nonsense, Veer.
- Mother?

Of course you can play
on a team with your friends.

- I can?
- Yes, dear.

You can play
on any team you want.

Really?
That's great news!

So, Prince Veer,
does that mean you'll join our team?

Naturally, your team
needs me.

But yes, Mira,
I'd love to join your team.

- Wa-hoo!
- He's in!

The case of the mysterious
polo player is closed.

Nice work, Mira.
Thank you, Neel.

Now, let's play!

- Whoa.
- Nice shot.

- Pass it to me.
- I'm open.

Watch and learn,
big brother, watch and learn.

Good one, Neel!

Nice work,
little brother!

Hey, people,
the mongooses are in the game!

Behold our polo skills!

Wrong way!
Wrong way, mister pony,

Wrong way, wrong way!
Wrong way!

Episode Part 2 >>>

Title:
"The Case of the Secret Treasure".

Ugh!

When is it ever
going to stop raining?

It's monsoon season, Priya.

All it does is rain.

Okay, the last piece
goes right here.

Nice work, Mira.

It's so hot!

- What next?
- We're bored.

You could help me start
a new puzzle, Chikku.

- Seriously?
- You're right.

I love puzzles,
but after the tenth one,

I'm all puzzled out.

I know.
Let's play a game.

Like hide-and-seek.

- Now you're talking!
- Yeah!

Yes, people!

You guys hide,
I'll seek.

Five, four, three,

two, one!

Ready or not, here I come!

Hmm. Not here.

Not here.

Found you.

Aw.
Now, where are the others?

Hey,
quit scratching me.

I'm not.

You found us already?

It's your fault, Mikku.
My fault?

You're the one
who kept scratching me.

I was not
scratching you.

Maybe something else back
there scratched you, Mikku.

Let's check.

Ugh. There's
something there.

It looks like
a treasure map.

Really?

I heard that
my great-grandmother

made a treasure map and
hid it somewhere in the palace.

The great-grandmother
who was an inventor?

Yup. According to
the stories my mom told me,

she left behind
a secret treasure map

that no one
has ever found.

I wonder
what the treasure is.

It could be
a box of gold!

Or treats.

Or treats
wrapped in gold.

Best of both worlds.

How do you even know
that it's the real map?

We don't. But there's one
person who will know for sure.

Indeed, Neel.

It is your
great-grandmother's map.

You can tell
by this symbol.

Is that a banyan tree,
Queen Shanti?

Yes, Mira, dear.

I remember it was
her favorite tree.

She put it on everything.

Now we know
it was her map.

Let's go find
the treasure!

- All right!
- Ooh! Gold treats!

Good luck, everyone.

We're on the case
of the secret treasure.

What is
all the commotion?

Some of us are trying
to practice sitar.

Veer, we found our
great-grandmother's treasure map.

What? I've always
wanted to find that treasure.

It will be part of my legacy.

Why don't we all look for it together,
Prince Veer?

Aw, Mira,

I don't want to spoil
your good time.

It'll be much faster
for me to look for it myself.

Uh, she is
the Royal Detective.

Yes, but I happen to know

every inch,
corner and crevice of this palace.

I just need to look at the map,
and I'll be on my way.

Suit yourself, Veer.

These pictures
could be clues.

The first picture looks like the
chest where you guys found the map.

So they are clues.

Which means
our next clue is

black and white rectangles.

They look like
piano keys to me.

Hey. I've heard there's a really
old piano down in the basement.

Well, to me, they look
like chess pieces.

I'm going to check the
chessboard in the courtyard.

Last one to the treasure
is a mushy mango!

We need to look
at that piano.

Chalo, chalo.
Let's go!

Neel, when was the last
time anyone came down here?

Eh... It's been a while.

We mostly use it
for storage.

I think the piano's
in that room.

Whoa! Look at that tree.

Uh, who puts a tree
in a basement?

Uh, what was that?

Hey! What's the big idea?

I got you, buddy!

Whoa! Knock it off,
tree! Whoa! Hey! Whoa!

Hang on, guys.
I got ya.

Whoa!
Oh!

Seriously, this tree
is out of control!

It's not a real tree.

It's made out of metal.

There are wires
attached to the branches

that make them
go up and down.

It's a trap!

I'll bet my great-grandmother
made it.

I'm not sure
how she made it do that,

but crispy samosas,

it's brilliant.

Neel, is there any way

you can get these branches
to stop?

Uh, soon.

Oh, yeah. Sorry.

I just need to figure out
how it works.

Ah-ha!

Now I just need something
that'll stop these gears.

Here, use my spool.

Oh, thanks, Neel.

Phew. Much better.

Look.

The tree made
that door open.

Okay. Let's find
that piano.

There it is.

Hello, everyone.

Veer, what are you
doing here?

As it turns out,

there were no clues
at the chessboard.

So does that mean

you wanna look for the
treasure with us now?

Hmm. Tempting.

But if I can
find the treasure first,

I get to keep it all
for myself!

No clues? Okay, that was
a waste of time.

Maybe we should
try to play it.

You call that playing?

Let me show you
how it's done, Neel.

Mmm-hmm.

You were saying?

It-it's not my fault.
The keys are stuck.

There's something
between the keys.

It looks like
a puzzle piece.

It has the same symbol
that's on the map.

A banyan tree.

It could be a clue.

Do you think that was
making the piano keys stick?

There's only one way
to find out.

Chikku?
Let's make some music!

Off we go!

- Watch out!
- This isn't doing anything.

Whoo!
Is it my imagination

or is the floor creaking?

We have to save them.
Let's slide!

Yes!

Woo! Well,
we didn't save them,

but we found the treasure.

Uh, where's the treasure?

We're still looking
for it, Chikku.

But we're
making progress.

We've already been
to two places on the map.

The chest and the piano.

Let's figure out
what this next drawing means.

That is a mango slice.

No way. Coconut slice.

Now I'm just hungry.

Well, these things
look like oars.

And these
look like seats.

Definitely a banana.

I know what it is.

A boat.

Your great-grandmother must have
wanted us to row through the tunnel.

A boat! Yes.

That's exactly
what I was thinking.

And it's right up there.

But how do we
get it down?

Stand back.
This will be easy.

I'm pretty sure

your great-grandmother
didn't make anything easy.

Guys, this looks like the puzzle
piece we found in the piano.

If only we knew
what it meant.

While you
figure that out...

I'm going
to find the treasure.

- See ya!
- Hey!

We do all the work

and you take the boat?

Not cool.

Not cool!

There's no way
he's beating us to the treasure.

We need a boat.

There's gotta be something
around here we can use.

How about that piece of wood?

That'll work.

Help!
Somebody help!

That sounds like Veer.

I think he's
in trouble.

We have to help him.

Over here!

We're coming, Veer.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.
I just got out of the boat

and tripped over a rock,

and suddenly,
this thing pulled me up.

It's another trap.

Your great-grandmother
made finding the treasure

a real challenge.

And also
a really good time.

Look at the mechanics
of that thing.

When Veer tripped
over this rock,

it moved that rope
across those pulleys

and yanked him up and...

Hello.

Can you please
help me down?

Neel, can you and Priya
give me a boost?

- Sure thing.
- No problem.

Thanks for helping me.

I guess I didn't
get very far on my own.

That's why we've been
working together, Prince Veer.

Well, enjoy finding
the treasure.

I guess I'll be
on my way.

Veer, why don't you
join us?

Yeah. We could use
an extra hand.

Yes!

Naturally, you need
my help.

What are you waiting for?

Let's go find
that treasure!

Oh, no!
A dead end.

Some treasure.

The only other drawing on
the map is of this stone wall

with a big triangle
in the middle of it.

There's a triangle
on that wall.

But what does it mean?

Maybe our great-grandmother
was playing a big joke on us.

No way.
She made this map.

She wanted us
to find the treasure.

I know she did.

Then why did she make
this seat so uncomfortable?

Ugh. Another silver piece.

Ooh! Let me
take a look.

It's got a banyan tree on it.

Great job, Veer!

Well, you know,
I'm like an eagle.

Thanks to
my excellent eyesight,

I notice things
that nobody else does.

So we have
three silver pieces.

What now?

Hmm. Let's think
this through.

Everywhere the map
told us to go,

we found silver pieces.

Each one looks kind of
like a puzzle piece.

So what if we put them
together like a puzzle?

Huh. It's a triangle
just like on the map.

Does anyone see
a triangle anywhere else?

- Right there!
- There!

It's the same shape!

That's genius.

I knew it.

Genius.

It looks like
this might fit.

Whoa!

- Amazing!
- Unbelievable!

- Incredible!
- We did it.

Whoa!

This is the treasure?

A room?

Not just any room, Veer.

It's our great-grandmother's
invention workshop.

I have heard stories
about it,

but I didn't think
it was real.

Incredible.

Uh, look.
Blueprints and wheels

and gears and gadgets.

Neel, maybe this could
be your workshop.

Yeah, you can make
even more inventions here.

That's a great idea!

The case of the secret
treasure is closed.

Ooh, look what I found!

Hey, Neel, can you put an
elevator like this in my bedroom

so I don't have to take
the stairs to the kitchen?

Looks like you're going
to be very busy, Neel.

- And so are we!
- And so are we!
