Title: MIRA (Reads):
The Case Of The Chiseling Chiselers.

Doesn't the palace
look beautiful?

Oh, yeah!
And it smells glorious.



(SNIFFS)

(SNEEZES)

What's the big
event, Mira?

It's Prince Veer's birthday!
He's having a party.

Not just any party.

My brother is throwing
himself a very fancy party.

He asked us to use
the finest decorations.

Like that stunning sword?
I've never seen it before.

That's because our mother
doesn't display it often.

It belonged to
my great-grandfather.

MIKKU: Oh, yeah!

Ooh, look at all
those jewels.

RAM SINGH: Let me make sure
the case is locked.

Chikku, watch the paws.

(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)
Sorry, Ram Singh Ji.

I can see
why Veer would wanna

display that sword
for his birthday.

It's really special.

PRINCE NEEL: It sure is.

I'm working on my own
special surprise for Veer.

A song I wrote for him.
Wanna hear it? - Yes!

- Of course!
- Sure.

VEER: (CLEARS THROAT)
Quiet, please.

Prince Veer!

What exactly
are you doing?

What does it look
like I'm doing?

I'm posing.

Whoa!

(CLEARS THROAT) I'm posing
for this brilliant sculptress

and her assistant
who offered to make

a statue of me
in honor of my birthday.

BOTH: At your service,
your Royal Highness.

How's this pose?

Excellent, your Highness.

Couldn't be better.

Actually, it could
be slightly better.

Hey, you do your job
and I'll do mine.

When it's finished, my magnificent
statue will be on display in town,

where everyone
can admire me.

- How's this?
- SCULPTRESS: Perfect.

Let's get started.
Scraping tool, please.

Scraping tool.

(HUMMING)

I didn't realize there were
special tools for sculpting.

How fascinating.
I'll say.

They're also great
for back scratching.

Ooh, yeah.
That's the spot.

Mmm-hmm!

Chikku, I can't believe you're
playing with sculpting tools

when there's clay
to play with!

I love clay!

So, how does it look?

Hmm, take a peek.

What do you think?

- I love it!
- Veer, shouldn't the statue look like you?

It kind of looks like an upside
down broom with a cape on it.

Clearly, Neel, you have no understanding
of great art.

My head is large
because it is so full of...

What did you say
it's full of again?

Smart knowledge.

Yes, smart knowledge.

And, have you ever seen
more fine looking ears?

What? Those are ears?

Neel, maybe you should show us
that thing you wanted to show us?

Great idea.
Let's go.

Where are we...

- Going?
- MIKKU: Come on, Chikku.

Oh, Neel,
I love it already!

That's not the song, Mira.
It's just my warm-up exercise.

VEER: No!

BOTH: What was that?

It sounds like Veer.

Something's wrong.
Come on.

No, no, this can't
be happening!

Prince Veer,
what's wrong?

My great-grandfather's sword,

it's gone!

What?

- Not possible!
- Seriously?

I begged mother to put it
on display for my party.

What am I going to do?

Veer, don't worry.
We're going to find it.

We're on the case
of the missing sword.

♪ We're on the case
We're on the case ♪

♪ We're on the case ♪

♪ Look a little closer
With your magnifying glass ♪

♪ Open up your notebook ♪

♪ Get your coat
And badge on fast ♪

♪ Ask all the questions
Follow your senses ♪

- ♪ Focus on every clue ♪
- BOTH: Ooh.

♪ Listen for answers
Find what you're after ♪

♪ That's what detectives do ♪

♪ We're on the case We're on the case
We're on the case ♪

Hmm.

Looks like somebody
forced open the display case.

How do you know?

The lock is broken.
That means they didn't have a key.

I knew it!
A thief stole the sword.

I'm not sure yet, Veer.

Let's keep looking
for clues.

What's this?

Look.

The wood in the frame
is really dark.

NEEL: But this piece
of wood is a light color.

VEER: Why are we talking
about wood?

If we don't find
that sword soon,

I don't know
what'll happen!

Your special party will be
completely and totally ruined?

Your mother, the Queen,
will be incredibly upset

that your family's
irreplaceable sword

- is gone forever and...
- No, no, no, no!

It's okay.

- No, no, no, no!
- Don't panic, Veer.

- No, no, no, no!
- We'll keep investigating.

Let's go talk to Ram Singh Ji
and find out if he's seen anything.

Yes! I'll be calm.

I'm calm now.
This is me calm.

We must find that sword.
It can't be gone, it can't!

This is him
being calm.

Ram Singh Ji,
the royal sword is missing!

Oh, goodness, Mira!
That's terrible.

Did you notice anyone trying to
leave the palace with the sword?

Absolutely not.

I locked the case and then
returned to my post here.

As you know, Mira,
nothing gets past me.

Mikku, please put that lamp
back where it belongs.

Good job. I was checking to make
sure nothing really gets past you.

Not a thing, Mikku. Chikku,
that book doesn't belong to you.

He's really good.
So good!

Since no one gets
past Ram Singh Ji,

that means the sword
is still inside the palace.

But where?

Let's take another
look in the great hall

and see if we
can find more clues.

(BOTH GRUNT)

Mira, do your cases
always take this long?

MIRA: Check this out.

There's something strange
holding up that curtain.

NEEL: Good eye, Mira!

It's a piece of wood. I wonder
why it's holding up a curtain.

It's the same kind of wood
we found by the display case.

And it's also broken.
Why is that?

So many questions
and still no answers!

MIRA: Let's check the balcony.

Here's another question,

what's a cart loaded with
clay doing on the balcony?

- Ooh, more clay!
- Whoo-hoo! I love clay!

The cart belongs
to the sculptress.

She has to put it out here.

So, the sculptress has been
coming out to the balcony

when she needs more clay?

Yes. And also
her assistant.

Why are you so
interested in this cart?

Because it's being held
into place with this.

The same kind of wood
we found before.

Three random pieces
of broken wood.

Who cares?

They're not random pieces,
Veer. In fact...

They all fit together.

It looks like some
kind of wooden tool.

Once again,
how is this helping us find the sword?

Let's think this through.

What if someone used the
wooden tool to force open the case

so they could take the sword,

and when they did,
the tool broke?

Then, they might have used two of
the broken pieces to hold up the curtain,

and hold the cart.

There's only one person
we saw using a wooden tool.

The sculptress!

She used a wooden sculpting
tool to make Veer's statue!

(GASPS)

So, you think the sculptress
and her assistant stole the sword?

Exactly.

I don't believe it.
The sculptress is a brilliant artist.

She gave me the
most fine-looking ears.

Besides, if they did steal the sword,
where is it?

Good question.

Ah, see?

Like the sculptress said,
my head is full of smart knowledge.

Ooh, pop goes the mongoose!
Did I mention I love clay?

Clay!

I think I know
where the sword is.

Remember how
the statue was

skinny with a big head?

That shape could hide a sword!

I think they hid the
sword inside the statue.

What?
(CHUCKLES) No.

There's only one way
to find out.

We have to crack it open.

You're right, Neel.

Let's do it!

Crack open my statue?

(GASPS) Okay, Mira,
I am not calm anymore.

The sculptress and
her assistant are gone!

And so is my statue!

(GASPS) Maybe they're sneaking
the sword out of the palace

inside the statue.

Speaking Hindi...

Let's go.

MIRA: There they go!

They're headed
into town!

With my statue!
We can't let them get away!

Sculptress!
Assistant!

Veer, take the alleyway up
ahead so we can cut them off.

Oh, I know. I'll take the alleyway
up ahead so we can cut them off.

MIRA: Stop! We need to
ask you some questions.

No time for questions, kid.

Yeah,
we're in the middle of a getaway.

Ugh, stop talking!

Hey! When the Royal Detective says stop,
you stop!

Ooh, they're
not stopping.

(BOTH SCREAMING)

(BOTH GRUNT)

- Hey! Stop right there.
- Hey! Stop right there.

Whatever you're after,
it was them!

- Us?
- Nice try, sword-thief guy.

Hey, that's a good look
for you, Mikku.

Oh, why, thank you.
And you as well.

We think a royal sword
is inside your statue.

We need to crack it open
so we can check.

How dare you break
my beautiful work of art.

(GASPS)
Personally,

I think you could use a
few more sculpting lessons.

The nerve!
She's a genius.

Wait, it's my statue.

I should crack it open.

Okay, here you go.

I know there's nothing
more important

than recovering
my great-grandfather's sword,

but I can't do it.

I'm too pretty.

There, there,
Prince Veer.

You don't have to look.
Better make it quick.

(SCULPTURE SHATTERS)

MIKKU: The sword!
Mira, you were right.

She's so good.

I knew it!

Nice work, Mira.

The case of the
missing sword is closed.

(MOOS)

Deputy Oosha,
just in time.

These two tried to steal
the royal sword.

(MOOS)

You may have caught us
this time,

but mark my words,
we'll be back.

And we'll be ready.

Come on, everyone.
Let's go home.

We have a party
to get to.

Ready, Veer?

Okay, guys.

ALL: Happy birthday,
Prince Veer.

Wow! All this
for me?

You shouldn't have.

Happy Birthday.

And look how beautiful your
great-grandfather's sword looks.

(SIGHS)
Yes, it does.

Someday,
it will be yours.

Thank you, Mira. For finding
the sword and saving my party.

You're welcome, Veer.

I have something else
for you too.

Aww!

One of my fine-looking ears!

I thought you should
at least have

part of your statue.

You know, when you're surrounded
by people who care about you,

who needs a statue?

I will keep the ear, though.

Honored guests,

I wrote a special song for
my big brother on his birthday.

- Ready, Mira?
- Ready.

Title: MIRA (Reads):
A Patchwork Mystery.

Just a couple more stitches

and... I can't believe it,
I'm finally done!

Priya, your quilt
is incredible.

Thanks. I wanted to make
something really special

for our town's
birthday party today.

That's when Queen Shanti
is going to unveil it!

Check out the patches!

Everybody made one

with their favorite thing about
living in Jalpur.

MIRA: The clock tower,
Deputy Oosha.

Aww, who doesn't
love Deputy Oosha?

Who made this one?

Prince Neel!

His favorite thing about
living in Jalpur is the people.

That's so sweet.

- Here, check out our patches!
- Yeah! Check it out.

Mango lassis,
samosas.

I'm noticing a theme here.

We love the food of Jalpur.

And pretty much
the food of everywhere.

Priya, what are you
looking for?

The special hooks I made.

I need them to hang
my quilts on the stage.

- We can help.
- Yeah!

Chikku and I can take your
quilt down to the stage...

While Mira helps you
find the hooks.

Are you sure
that's a good idea?

MIKKU AND CHIKKU:
Mira, we got this.

(BOTH GRUNT)

(BOTH GRUNT)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

MIRA: Uh, guys?

Guys?

Guys?

The door's that way.

Excellent work, Mira.
Mmm, good eye, Mira.

See you down there.

MIKKU: Priya's quilt,
coming through.

That's right.
Very important quilt here.

Hey, watch it, mango.

(GOATS BLEATING)

(MOOS)

Keep it moving, Chikku.

I would if someone
weren't blocking me.

Excuse me,
oh, Deputy Oosha.

Lovely day to carry a quilt around,
wouldn't you say?

(MOOS)

(CHUCKLES) Well,
we'll just be on our way.

Why'd you give me
the heavy end, Mikku?

Keep it straight.

- Got it.
- Yup. There you go.

- Got it.
- Watch that rock.

Got it.

- (CARPET THUDS)
- CHIKKU: Whoop. Whoa!

Oh, lost it.

MIKKU: All right. We are...
(GRUNTS) On the stage.

Wow, we're actually
in the right place!

This thing is kinda heavy.

Yeah. Where should
we put it?

How about
on this table?

(BOTH GRUNT)

(HORN TOOTING)

NEEL: Hey, Mikku, Chikku.

MIKKU: Whoa, what's that,
Prince Neel?

My latest invention,

an aqua rickshaw.

It's for the town's
birthday boat parade.

Wanna come test it out?

Whoa!

Mmm, we'll let you test
it out a little bit more.

Soggy samosas.

I better go back
to the palace

for my tools
and a change of clothes.

Hey, guys.
We found Priya's hooks.

Where's the quilt?

On the table
by the stage.

Safe and sound, Mira.

What table?

Umm, I don't see a table,
or Priya's quilt.

It was right here.

And now, it's not.

Mira, the party
is starting soon.

Queen Shanti
is supposed to present

my quilt to
everyone in Jalpur.

Priya, it's going to be okay.

We'll find it in time.

We're on the case
of the missing quilt.

So, you put Priya's quilt

on a table
next to the stage.

Can you tell me anything
else about this table?

Yes, I remember exactly
what it looked like.

Blue with a red stripe.

And flat! Oh,
and it had three wheels under it.

A table with three wheels?

That doesn't sound
like a table.

Not at all.

It sounds like
a cart!

BOTH: Uh-oh!

You guys put my quilt
on a cart?

Carts move!

How are we going to find it?

Yeah, Chikku.
Carts move. Ever think of that?

Hello? You're the one who
told me to put it on the cart!

Guys, now's not the time
to be blaming anyone.

I think it's an
excellent time, actually.

Did you say the cart is blue
with a red stripe?

Mmm-hmm, yes, why?

I see it!

(GASPS) And your quilt's
in the back.

Speaking Hindi...

Let's go!

(BRAKES SCREECHING)

Where'd it go?
Cart! Get back here.

It's headed towards
the flower stand.

Oh, no! We lost it.

- Oh!
- Oh!

Hey,
Mira. Do you need some flowers?

People are decorating their rickshaws,
their boats, their...

We're actually in the middle
of a case, Dhruv.

Maybe you can help.

Me? Yes! Need me
to go undercover?

Wear a disguise?
Please can I wear a disguise?

Please, please, please?

Maybe next time.

We're looking for a
blue cart with a red stripe.

It might've looked
like a table.

- Easy mistake to make.
- Happens every day.

I saw a cart like that.

Oh, and something
fell out of the back.

- Was it a quilt?
- Case solved!

Quilt? No.
He dropped this rope.

Case not solved.

When you find him can
you give him his rope?

Sure. He was headed
to the marketplace.

Marketplace.
Let's go!

(GOATS BLEATING)
What's the hold up?

We have important
royal detective business.

Hmm.

(MOOS)

MIRA: No carts anywhere.

(MOOS) MIRA: Looks like the
road is blocked by some oars.

And Deputy Oosha's
directing traffic.

Huh...

Dhruv said the rope fell
out of the cart he saw.

Do you think the oars
fell out of the same cart?

Maybe. Let's ask.

Deputy Oosha,

did these oars fall off the back
of a blue cart with a red stripe?

(MOOS)

They did?
Great, thanks.

We're tracking down
the cart.

When we find it,
we'll return the oars.

Do you know where
the cart went?

(MOOS)

You do? Where?

(MOOING)

General store.
Great, thanks.

All right, people.

Street is clear.

Let's move it along.

We have a case to solve.

- Whoa!
- (MOOS)

I think Deputy Oosha
has this handled.

Okay, keep up
the good work, Deputy.

Uh-huh. Big fans.
Big fans!

MIRA: Excuse me, Uncle.

Hello, Mira. Headed down
to the stage for the big party?

Soon. Really soon.

Did you see anyone come by
in a blue cart with a red stripe?

Ah, yes, Priya.
The driver bought an anchor.

You wouldn't believe how many
anchors I've sold for the big parade.

Did you see
which way it went?

No, I'm sorry.
I... I didn't.

Mira, there's no way

we can track down my quilt
before the celebration.

Yes, there is, Priya.

We just need to figure out
where the driver went next.

Let's think this through.

Mikku and Chikku accidentally
put the quilt onto a cart.

We know the driver had a rope,
oars and an anchor.

What do all of those things
have in common?

- They're all things you use on a...
- ALL: Boat!

So, you think the cart
went down to the river?

Let's go find out.

MIRA: See the cart anywhere?

There's a blue cart!

MIKKU: With a red stripe.

Yes! Case closed.

Oh, no!
My quilt's not here.

Case not closed!

The anchor
isn't here either.

Maybe the driver has
a boat in the parade.

And he took his anchor
and your quilt.

But why would you bring
a quilt on a boat?

- Blanket fort!
- Oh! I love blanket forts.

Snuggling up with my fluffy pillows,
telling stories.

Or maybe, if you wanted to use the
quilt as a canopy to cover your boat!

All the boats have them.

Priya! I see your quilt!

It is on a boat. The puppeteer's
boat. We need to get it.

(HORN TOOTING)
But how?

Guys, It's working!
I finally got it to work!

We know someone who
can help. Prince Neel,

we're ready to test out
your aqua rickshaw!

Thanks for the lift, Neel.

Now let's go
get Priya's quilt.

Hang on, everyone.

Wow, this thing
really moves!

CHIKKU: Mmm,

and don't you just love
the wind in your fur, Mira?

Chikku, she doesn't
have fur.

There's the boat!

PRIYA: That's my quilt!

MIKKU: Stop!

Soggy samosas.

I can't get
around those boats.

Mikku, it's our fault that
Priya's quilt is out there.

We gotta make this right.

Agreed. And there's only
one way to do it.

BOTH: Mongoose style!

(BOTH CHITTERING)

Excuse us. Pardon us.

CHIKKU: Mongooses
coming through.

MIKKU: Watch this,
Chikku. Whoo!

Hey, check me out!

(BOTH CHATTERING)

BOTH: Whoa!
(GRUNTS)

Hello there, little friends.

How can I help you?

Actually, Mr. Puppeteer, we have a
very important matter to discuss with you.

You have our friend
Priya's quilt!

(GASPS)
This is Priya's?

Oh!

I'm so sorry. I thought someone
left this for me to use on my boat

for the parade.

I sewed that quilt
for the party.

See, there's the patch
you made of your puppets!

How wonderful, Priya!

We found some rope and oars
that belong to you too, Uncle.

They dropped out of
the back of your cart.

(LAUGHING) Oh!

I was wondering
where they were.

These spare oars
don't work very well at all.

I was so excited to
get my boat ready

for the parade,
I wasn't paying attention.

Yeah, happens
to the best of us.

Yep, pretty much
on a weekly basis.

Here you go, Priya.

PRIYA: Thank you, Uncle.

Looks like the case of
the missing quilt is closed.

Nice work,
Mikku and Chikku.

Welcome to Jalpur's
big birthday party!

(ALL CHEERING)

In honor of this special day,

Priya has sewn together this stunning
quilt with patches from all of you.

It'll hang in the great hall,

but first I want everyone
to see it.

Priya, if you'll
do the honors.

(ALL CHEERING)

MAN: It looks stunning!

Now, please enjoy the party
and the boat parade!

(ALL CHEERING)

Uh, Priya, we have something
we wanna say to you. We're...

So sorry we lost your quilt.

We should've paid better
attention to what we were doing.

You guys did a great job
helping me get it back.

And as a special thanks,

I made an extra patch
for you.

BOTH: Us?

Our two little heroes.

Would you
look at that?

(HORN TOOTING)
I look so handsome.

Mikku, Chikku, ready?

MIKKU AND CHIKKU: So ready!

- Whoo-hoo!
- Whoo-hoo!
