[THEME SONG]

(SINGING) Pete the Cat, he's one groovy dude.

He'll put you in a happy mood.

He's got a funky style and a cool attitude.

Pete the Cat, yeah, he's all that.

He knows where it's at, Pete the Cat.

Pete the Cat.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Howdy, cats and kittens.

Well, a new game is taking the kids at Cat City by storm.

The game of marbles.

And Grumpy is just a little more taken than most.

The game of marbles is simple.

Aim your bumper marble, this, at the other marbles

and knock them out of the circle, like this.

GROUP: [EXCLAIMING]

That's amazing.

Yay.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I have talent, but talent only goes so far.

The key is having a good bumper marble,

like my precious Bluejay here.

Ooh.

So, Dennis, you got what it takes?

I hope so.

Hmm, not bad, Dennis.

Not bad at all.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

One marble left.

Come on, Bluejay, take us home.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

I won!

Yes!

Bluejay?

No!

[CRIES]

Sorry about your bumper marble, Grumpy.

But that was a great shot.

Where am I going to find another bumper?

And to think, I was at the height of my career.

You can borrow my bumper.

Thanks, Dennis.

But if I'm gonna reach my full potential,

I'm gonna need my own bumper.

Oh.

OK.

Well, I'll see you later.

Hey, Pete.

Look, my dad let me borrow his marbles so I

can finally play with Grumpy.

[GASPS] Oh, no.

DOG (VOICEOVER): We all lose our marbles from time to time.

Luckily, Callie has a friend like Pete to help find hers.

Thanks, Pete.

That's most of them.

But we still haven't found my bigsy clearsy.

It's a big clear marble with a tiny kitty inside.

Did you see it?

DOG (VOICEOVER): So Pete and Callie looked and searched

and even inspected, but they turned up nothing.

[ALARM RINGING]

Oh, no, it's time to go to my singing lesson.

I can't believe I lost my favorite marble.

DOG (VOICEOVER): Pete, being the good friend

he is, offered to continue his search

for the missing Bigsy Clearsy.

Thanks, Pete.

You're the best.

DOG (VOICEOVER): And while Pete searched

for Callie's lost marble, Grumpy was upset over his loss too.

[SIGHS]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

(SINGING) What's this I see in front of me,

round and clear and sparkling.

The clouds will part, let in the Sun.

My happy days have just begun.

Finders keepers, losers weeper, that's

the famous playground rhyme.

If you lost it and I found it, what once was yours

must now be mine.

You were the property of someone else,

but they dropped you here on the ground.

So by definition, you were lost, and when I picked you up,

you were found.

By invoking the rule, it makes everything cool.

It's all copacetic, it's fine.

I claim my rights under playground law.

So from this day forth, you are mine.

GROUP: (SINGING) Finders keepers, losers weepers.

Finder keepers.

I'm back in the game, baby!

Pete, the most amazing thing has happened.

Meet my new bumper, The Pretty.

DOG (VOICEOVER): Pete hated to burst Grumpy's happy bubble,

but he knew the marble in Grumpy's hand

belonged to Callie.

Whoa, Pete, we don't know if this is Callie's marble.

Don't make me say it, Pete.

Don't make me say it.

OK, I'll say it, finders keepers.

I gotta go.

Good talk, Pete.

See ya.

DOG (VOICEOVER): Pete spent that whole afternoon not sure

if he should tell Callie what Grumpy did or not.

What's a blue cat to do?

Hey, Napoleon Bonaparte, why the long face?

DOG (VOICEOVER): Pete should talk to super cool big brother,

that's what.

Pete told Bob everything, but it boiled down to this.

Even if finders keepers is the rule of the playground,

it didn't feel right for Grumpy to keep Callie's marble.

Should he tell Callie about it?

That is a tough one, broller coaster.

But you know Grumpy's a good guy.

I say give him a chance to do the right thing.

He might surprise you.

Sweet dreams, The Pretty.

[SNORES]

I thought my career was over, then

I found her, almost like magic.

Magic?

Or because I accidentally dropped my favorite marble.

It's finders keepers.

It's only fair I keep it.

It's a playground rule.

Some would say a law.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[SHOUTS] Who are you?

I'm Good Grumpy, obviously.

And you, obviously, need to give Callie's marble back.

OK, listen, good me.

I didn't invent finders keepers.

I just abide by it.

[LAUGHS] That's what I'm talking about.

I suppose you're bad me?

Bad Grumpy, at your service.

How you doing, good looking?

Pay no mind to my do-gooder pal over there.

That bumper belongs to his good friend.

But I need a great bumper if I'm

going to be a marbles champion.

Exactly.

You want to win, you gotta keep that bumper.

Because, spoiler alert, you'll never find another bumper

like this one, my friend.

But you'll never find another friend like Callie either.

I want to keep the bumper, but--

oh, I don't know what to do.

Where's that spiffy marble you found?

[SIGHS]

Oh, honey, are you sick?

You don't have a temperature.

But then again, you are cold-blooded.

I don't have a cold, mean heart, do I?

I said cold-blooded, silly.

Because you're a toad.

You have a warm heart.

I don't think I do.

Grumpy?

I can't believe I'm saying this,

but it feels wrong to keep you.

But I do need you.

Please don't be mad at me, The Pretty.

Pete, before you say another word,

I'm going to do the right thing.

Grumpy, hi.

I wanted to play marbles with you,

but they fell out of the bag.

And you lost your favorite bumper.

I think this belongs to you.

Oh, well, actually, I lost it and you found it.

Finders keepers is still the playground rule,

so you can keep it if you want to.

No.

What I want is to change that rule.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

(SINGING) I revoke my rights of the playground rule.

Finders keepers just isn't cool.

From this day forth, and in it's a fact,

I say finders must give it back.

GROUP: (SINGING) Finders keepers, jeepers creepers,

take that old rule back to school.

Find a treasure on the playground,

finders give it back is the brand new rule.

GRUMPY: (SINGING) If you find a backpack.

GROUP: (SINGING) Give it back.

GRUMPY: (SINGING) Candy by the sack?

GROUP: (SINGING) Give it back.

GRUMPY: (SINGING) Brand new pair of slacks?

GROUP: (SINGING) Give them back.

Oh, give them back!

Finders keepers, jeepers creepers,

take that old rule back to school.

Find a treasure on the playground,

finders give it back is the brand new rule.

So do you want to play a game?

Wow, you're a natural at this.

Pete was reminded that good folks like Grumpy

do the right thing, even if it takes a little while.

Because--

Doing the right thing may be hard at first,

but you'll always feel better in the end.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Hey, there, cats and kittens.

Are you wondering why our story starts

in the middle of the night?

Well, tonight, Pete's gonna wake up to a mystery.

[SNORES]

[TONE PLAYING]

[TONE PLAYING]

[TONE PLAYING]

DOG (VOICEOVER): Pete and Goldie couldn't make heads or tails

or fins of that honking.

And to tell the truth, neither can I. What is that?

The honking woke Pete up, but the mystery kept him up.

Well, that--

[TONE PLAYING]

--and the honking.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Pete knew that to get a good night's sleep,

he'd need to figure out where the honking came from.

Hey, sleepy head.

You almost fell asleep in your bowl of cereal, little cat.

Did you have bad dreams?

Was it the honking?

Honking?

There was some weird honking in the middle of the night.

But you know me, I fell right back asleep.

Is that what kept you up, sweetie?

Hmm, I didn't hear it, but--

Morning.

Who wants a peanut butter and jelly fish sandwich, hmm?

I perfected the recipe last night.

DOG (VOICEOVER): Pete didn't need

peanut butter and jelly fish.

He needed answers.

And sleep.

And to get sleep, he needed to find out--

Pete.

Pete, don't you remember rule seven in the official guide

to playground rules, third edition?

Only play on the swings when you're fully awake.

DOG (VOICEOVER): Pete explained his mysterious situation.

Maybe it was the honking of a rare Venetian night goose?

[HONKS]

Maybe someone is practicing being a clown

and honking their nose.

[HONKS]

Obviously, an inventor is working on a new bike horn.

[HONKS]

We came as soon as we heard.

A honking mystery?

[SPEAKING FRENCH] How can we help?

Great, we're all here.

Because if there is a mystery, there is only one cat to call.

Catalina case solver.

Sally the Squirrel as plucky new squirrel skipper.

Grumpy Toad as the chef.

Emma the Pug as Flambe.

Gustavo [INAUDIBLE] as Alfonso Dynamico.

Pete, this is where you say Pete the Cat as Detective

Catenburg von Yarnraveller.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

DOG (VOICEOVER): Pete knew that in order for him to get

a better sleep tomorrow, he'd need to figure out

where that honking came from.

Ah ha, these will lead me to the culprit.

You can't hide in Pickle Manor forever, pickle thief.

No more clues.

Fortunately, a clever cat like me

can rely on intuition and her other senses.

(SINGING) You gotta follow the footprints

and see where they lead.

Use your intuition, because that's all you need.

No criminal is perfect, no matter how hard they try.

They always lead evidence no matter how sly.

Pickle juice dripping leading me to the jar.

This pickle thief isn't gonna get very far.

Cat go detective pulverizing defenses.

You got to-- you got to-- you got to follow your senses.

Follow your senses, yeah.

Oh, be careful, Catalina.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

THIEF: Ow.

And that's how I use my senses to solve a crime.

GROUP: [CHEERS]

All right, if we're going to be like Catalina,

let's use our other senses just like she did.

Start smelling.

GROUP: [SNIFFING]

I smell something fishy.

Not fishy like funny, but fishy like fish.

Hello.

Who wants a late night snack?

There's juice on the table, and I'm happy to make you a peanut

butter and jelly fish sandwich.

Whoa, that jellyfish smells strong.

Like the bad part of the beach.

Yes, it's pickled.

No thank you, Mr. Pete the Cat's dad.

I am no longer hungry.

Well, I guess that's just more for me, then.

Goodnight, kids.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

OK, let's get back to using our sense of--

[TONE PLAYING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

GRUMPY: [SLURPS] Ah.

GROUP: [LAUGHS] [HONKING]

GROUP: [GASPS]

Was that it?

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[HONKS]

Was that the honk you heard before, Pete?

Hmm, a dead end.

[TONE PLAYING]

Is that the honking, Pete?

Eyes activated.

But that sound wasn't coming from outside the house.

So it must be coming from inside the house.

It is inside the house.

[SCREAMS]

I mean, let's find this thing.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

GROUP: [GASPS]

If our sense of smell did not find anything,

then we must use another sense.

Like our sense of touch, or our sense of style.

Hey, I can smell jelly fish again.

[TONE PLAYING]

Wow, and I heard that.

But I cannot see it.

Is everything all right, loves.

Did you not hear the honking, Mr. Pete the Cat's dad?

Honking?

Oh, that's probably my coffee brewanator thingy.

See?

Oh, I found that it can make some rather interesting noises.

Here, let me just--

[TONES PLAYING]

OK, all fixed.

And fresh coffee for the morning.

Mystery solved.

I'm off to bed.

Goodnight, kids.

So the mystery is solved, no?

I don't get it.

We smelled, we listened, we looked.

How did we miss that it was the thingy all along?

[TONE PLAYING]

Pete, I thought your dad taped up the coffee thingy.

[TONE PLAYING]

If it isn't the coffee thingy, the mystery is still on.

I won't sleep until I know.

Because of curiosity, and also the honking.

[TONE PLAYING]

There it is again, the sound.

And the smell, peanut butter and jelly fish sandwiches.

Hey, every time we hear the honking--

We also smell the peanut butter and jelly fish.

And here, on the floor, I smell peanut butter,

and see a trail of crumbs.

And it leads to--

[MUSIC PLAYING]

GROUP: [GASPS]

The dark garage.

[TONE PLAYING]

What is this?

A late night party in the garage?

We're here because Mr. Pete the Cat's dad is actually,

dun, dun, dun, the honkener.

Uh oh.

Not again.

Honey, wake up.

Oh, hello.

Why are we all in the garage?

Oh, dear, was I?

Yes.

Have you been eating pickled jelly fish before bed again?

Maybe a little.

Every time Pete's dad eats pickled jellyfish before bed,

he plays his clarinet in his sleep.

The honkening must have been me.

Sorry to have kept you up, my boy.

Mystery solved.

Before, the mystery kept Pete awake,

but now, solving the mystery had Pete too excited to sleep.

What's a blue cat to do?

Well, we're up, you've got your clarinet,

who wants to dance?

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Sometimes mysteries lead to late night dance parties.

And as Pete always says--

we'll save that for another night.

Sweet dreams, cats and kittens.

(SINGING) Go, Pete, go.

Go, Pete, go.

Go, go, go, go, go, Pete, go.

Here I am on the move, taking my time because I'm in the groove.

All my friends are here.

Go, Pete, go.

Go, Pete, go.

Go, go, go, go, go, Pete go.

Go, Pete, go.

Go, Pete, go.

Go, go, go, go, go, Pete, go.
