Winnie the Pooh ♪
What a nice day.
Too bad there's no one
to play with.
Dear!
Either this tree
doesn't like me,
or the sky's falling.
Oh! Hello, Pooh.
Would you like to come down
and play with me?
I'd like to, Piglet,
only I'm rather busy
at the moment
gathering honey, you know.
Pooh!
But Pooh, there's no beehive
in that tree.
That's why I've disguised
myself as the sun,
to trick the bees
into building their beehive
in a nice warm spot.
Oh, bother.
Maybe I can help.
I'll dress as a sun
and join you.
Actually, I don't think that
would be a very good idea, Piglet.
If the bees see two suns,
they might get suspicious.
I understand.
Hello, Tigger.
Would you like to play with me?
No time, Piglet.
I got a lot of bouncing to do.
But I can bounce with you.
Sorry. Where I'm bouncing,
no tigger has bounced before.
And that includes piglets.
I understand.
Hello, Rabbit, Eyeore.
Would you like to play with me?
No. Not now, Piglet.
Can't you see we're
finishing Eyeore's house?
Not much of a house.
Just right for
not much of a donkey.
Ooh! Perhaps I can help.
Should have known.
Oh, I'm sorry, Eyeore.
Now look what you've done.
Why don't you find
someone else to play with?
Anyone else.
But there isn't anyone else.
Why does everyone ignore
a very small animal?
If only I could find a very
small friend to play with.
Oh!
Maybe I can play with my shadow.
Tweet, tweet.
Woof, woof.
Yipes!
Ooh, dear.
Maybe we should play something
a little less scary.
Okay?
Okay.
How about a game of catch?
Here it comes.
Good! Here comes another one.
Ooh! Catch it! Catch this one!
Oh, my! You're very good
at playing ball.
You're the "friendiest" friend
I ever had.
I bet you'd never ignore me
like all my other friends?
Oh, my! Oh, dear!
Piglet's invented
a make-believe playmate.
And he's talking to it.
All our fault.
Shouldn't have ignored him.
Next, he'll invent
more and more of them.
Oh, I hope not.
I can hardly remember
all my real friends,
without make-believe ones, too.
- I've got it!
- A make-believe friend?
No, no, no!
An idea how we can show Piglet
how much we care for him.
Oh, that's a wonderful idea,
Rabbit.
By the way, what is the idea?
No time to explain now.
We have work to do.
Piglet, dear friend,
would you like to come out
and play?
Oh, no, thank you, Rabbit. I'm
busy playing catch with my shadow.
He's making friends
with shadows?
Oh, the poor little guy.
If there's one thing
Piglet can't resist
it's fireflies.
Yeah!
We're going to catch
more fireflies.
Wouldn't you like to come along?
Do you think I could have
my very own net?
Why, certainly friend.
Oh, I can hardly wait.
Shadow! I'm home!
Come on out and meet my friends!
Shadow? Where are you?
Oh, dear.
It's a note from my shadow.
I hurt his feelings.
He's He's run away!
Oh, now the poor little fella's
leaving himself
make-believe notes.
But it's true.
My shadow is gone. Look.
Why, he's right.
Oh, how could I have treated
my very own shadow so badly?
Oh, poor Piglet.
Fear not, Piglet old pal,
finding lost shadows
is what tiggers do best.
Aha! The perfect shadow hideout!
Oh, my! Are you shadow?
I suppose not.
Oh, Shadow? Are you in there?
With all the shadows in there,
Piglet's is probably
somewhere less crowded.
I know I'd be,
if I were a shadow
which I'm not, being a donkey.
Oh, shadow! You've come home!
Oh, dear.
You're not my shadow.
No, Piglet, it's mine.
I thought you might borrow it,
until yours returns.
It's all right, shadow,
he's a friend of mine.
Oof!
Oh, thank you, Pooh.
But somehow it's sort of
- sort of
- I know.
Rather Pooh-ish.
Step aside, step aside.
Why use an old Pooh shadow,
Piglet?
Here. Have mine.
It's bouncier.
Oh, dear!
It is bouncy!
Yeah! Takes after yours truly.
Wait a minute!
Where you goin'?
Hey! Come back!
It's running away!
Quick! After it!
This is all my fault.
If only I hadn't ignored
my shadow.
Shadow?
Is Is that you?
Shadow!
Shadow!
I must be brave.
I must be brave.
I must be brave.
Oh, there you are.
Oh, there you're not.
Oh, dear.
I wonder where I am.
Perhaps I
No, I'm not there.
Then I must be
Oh, I'm not there, either.
Oh, what was that?
Oh, it's you! Oh,
please come home with me, shadow.
I know I treated you badly,
and you have every right
to be angry with me,
but I am very sorry,
and and and I promise
I'll never, never
Yipes!
Oh, what to do, what to do
Psst! Shadow!
No, not "tweet, tweet."
Not "woof, woof."
Oh, shadow, you're back.
I'll never make you do
scary hand shadows again.
I'll save you, shadow.
Yipe!
You stay back,
or I'll, uh
I guess I got rid of them,
huh, shadow?
Shadow?
Oh, dear.
I guess I got rid of you, too.
Oh, I'll probably
never see him again,
and it's all my fault.
If only I had my shadow back,
why, we'd be inseparable,
like peanut butter and jelly
only less sticky,
that is,
if he'd ever forgive me.
Shadow?
Oh, shadow, you've come home!
Haven't you?
Ooh!
I guess I'm kind of tired, too.
Good night, shadow.
You've made me the
happiest piglet in the world.
There! A meal fit
for a Pooh Bear.
I do hope he likes the
best-friend lunch I'm giving him.
After all, he is my best friend.
Perfect.
Nothing can go wrong now.
Piglet, stay calm.
There's no reason
to panic over one, little
Oh, dear.
Now there is a reason to panic.
Oh, I do enjoy
best-friend lunches,
especially the part
where you ask for seconds.
Excuse me, tummy,
- but was that you
who just went
I suppose not.
Hello, Piglet.
I brought you
a best-friend present.
It's honey,
because that's your
best friend's favorite food.
Why, you're very welcome,
I'm sure.
Pooh!
I have the
Oh, I love games.
Hiccup! Hiccup!
Hiccup!
- Hiccup! Hiccup!
- But I'm not playing a
Oh, I believe you win, Piglet.
Now can we eat?
But, Pooh, I've
got
the
For me?
Why, thank you!
There.
That's better.
Oh, my.
I like it very much, Piglet.
Is it a picture of me?
Why didn't you say so?
I'm hungry, too.
Oh, and don't forget
the best-friend gift,
best friend.
Oh, my. Piglet doesn't seem
at all in a luncheoning mood.
And my best-friend gift
isn't to his liking.
But Ooh!
Maybe I offended him?
Perhaps it's better
for me to leave.
And good-bye to you too, Piglet.
Pooh! Please don't
Oh, dear.
Oh.
Oh, my.
The hiccups really gone.
Good.
Now I can apologize to Pooh
and ask him back for lunch.
Ooh, how "extraordilary."
An "unidentifried"
bouncing Piglet.
I'm sorry, Tigger,
but I got the
Hey, buddy boy, did you know
you got the "hic-cufflinks?"
Oh, but don't fret, small-fry.
I'll get rid of them for you,
or my name ain't, uh,
whatever it is my name ain't.
Now, the best way
to get rid of "hic-cufflinks"
is by drinking lots of water.
"Hic-cufflinks" is crummy
swimmers, you know.
If you'll excuse me, Tigger
I must go find
I think they already found you,
buddy boy.
See?
I told you it would work.
Oh, worry not, dear friend.
My great, great,
great uncle Ebenezer,
on my mother's side,
had a surefire cure
for the hiccups.
It's really quite simple.
If the hiccups can't hiccup,
then they'll have to "hic-down."
You can't argue with
"logisticals" like that.
- Um, Owl?
- Yes, Piglet?
I say, Tigger, this is no good.
Maybe not,
but you have to admit,
the little guy sure makes
a dandy pogo stick.
It's terrifical!
It's fantastical!
It's What is it?
It's a hiccup trap, of course.
Yeah! And it looks like
a pretty good one at that!
But before we can capture them,
we must first trick
the hiccups out.
Now, you lie down.
Pretend to be asleep.
Then will you let me find
Anything you say, Piglet.
Whatever that is.
Now, go ahead and make
some snoozin' noises.
I sure hope we bag our limit.
Hooray! We caught a hiccup!
If you didn't want me
to eat the cake,
why'd you leave it lying around?
Hey, how about that?
Them "hic-cufflinks"
look a lot like Eyeore's.
Hmm
There was something
very unusual about Piglet today,
although I can't quite put
my finger on it.
Perhaps he wasn't feeling well.
Maybe I should bring him
a feeling better gift.
But what does one give a piglet
who has everything?
I know! Honey!
This is a surefire way
to cure you, Piglet.
All we gotta do
is frighten them out.
Deep down, all "hic-cufflinks"
are cowardly little scaredy-cats.
But so am I.
Oh, dear.
Boy, oh, boy!
This is gonna be great!
Oh,
what kind of stumpedy-bumpedity are you?
That couldn't even scare
a Piglet!
You want to sound convincing,
try to put some more "oohs"
in your "oohs."
Ooh! Ooh!
Piglet's hiccups won't know
what hit him.
Yes.
A jar of honey is
the perfect friendly gift.
It always makes me feel
perfectly friendly.
Oh, bother.
Friendliness doesn't go
as far as it used to.
Empty again.
Oof!
Oh, bother.
You guys ready?
Owl!
Watch where you're stepping!
Oh, dreadfully sorry.
What was that?
It's the real
stumpedy-bumpedity!
- Yah!
- Oh, my!
Run for your lives!
It's after us!
Oh, dear.
It's so quiet.
Whoa!
Oof!
Help!
Hello, Piglet.
Oh, Pooh! You saved me?
I did?
And you got rid of my hiccups.
Oh, so that's what was wrong?
You had the hiccups.
Why didn't you say so?
I couldn't, I had the hiccups.
- When?
- When I wasn't saying so.
Oh, well,
now that that's settled,
why don't we have
our friendship lunch?
But it's after dinner, Pooh.
Don't worry, Piglet.
We can have a friendship
dinner, too.
I can't take another step.
You'd better go on without me.
Save yourselves.
Sound good to me, long ears.
Let's go, Owl.
I'm sorry, Tigger,
but I'm a noble animal.
I can't leave Rabbit.
I will stay, too.
Okay by me, buddy bird.
Well, ta-ta for now.
Now, I couldn't stay away
and leave my bestest friends
for dessert.
Well, just have to face
that stumpedy-bumpedity
What am I saying?
Oh, dear!
It's getting closer!
Yeah, and it's got noisey feet.
It's come to get us!
Good-bye, Rabbit.
Good-bye, Owl!
Good-bye, Tigger!
Hello, Rabbit!
Hello, Owl!
Hello Tigger!
Hey!
Either we made a boo-boo,
or them spookables look
like Buddy Bear and Piglet.
I say, Piglet,
what happened to your hiccups?
My very best friend Pooh
got rid of them
when he saved my life.
Oh, wonderful!
Splendid job!
Good old Pooh Boy!
Wait! If them "hic-cufflings"
are gone from Piglet,
then where did they go?
Uh-oh.
Oh, my.
Well
- Whatever shall we do?
- Don't worry.
I know the best ways
to get rid of hiccups.
First, water.
Hiccups are crummy swimmers,
you know.
