Race Rescue
Big Tree City Rescue, let's go.
Big Tree City,
Big Tree City rescue, let's go!
Big Tree City,
Big Tree City Rescue, let's go.
Let's go!
Let's go!
Good day.
Oh, cats of blooms.
Happy birthday, Major Prickles!
This is for you.
For me?
Oh, you shouldn't have.
Oh.
It's a cane, cause you're old.
We also got you a cushion
and a sleeping mask,
because you take so many naps.
You shouldn't have. Seriously.
Wait till you see what else we got you.
T-da!
A birthday cake!
Why is it so big?
So we can fit all the candles on?
How old do you think I am?
Six, teen, thousand?
Oh, pecky! It's rude to mention.
How old and old person is?
Oh, come now!
I'm not old.
Am I?
Yes, you are.
Yeah, you grow when you bend down
and you take forever
to get out of a chair.
That doesn't mean anything.
When I need to, I can still run, jump,
and somersault with the best of them.
Right! I'll show you!
This is Big Three City News Service.
I'm Edward Lister, and
it's all going swimmingly.
Thanks to Sergeant Prickles a big,
Tree City Rescue, here he is, saving
little Tippy Timkins drop a pole.
This destifying tree-top rescue is
no problem for this heroic hedgehog.
And when a ridiculously huge
Cartwell threatens to crush
everything in sight, Prickles
is on hand to save the day.
Thank you, Sergeant Prickles,
Big Tree City's top rescuer.
That was awesome.
Yes, yes, thank you very much.
Wow, Major. I didn't know how much.
How quick you used to be.
Used to be?
He was so powerful.
Back then.
Like a different hedgehog.
He can't move like that anymore.
Because of his hip.
Back then, hip!
I might have a few grey whiskers,
but I'm as capable and alert as ever.
Oh, oh, oh.
Big Tree City Rescue,
ready to rescue you
To the briefing room!
Okay, team, there's a pet snail
stuck up a tree in Capitol Park.
We need to get it off the branch as
quickly and as safely as possible.
Let's chop the tree down.
No, no, no, no, no, squirt
it out with the hose.
Investigate why it's up
there in the first place.
A snail in a tree, suspicious.
No, we should chop it down.
Investigate.
You need to lodge
Down, or them.
Okay, listen up. This is the plan.
Stripes will cord off the area.
Flame can use her cherry
picker to reach the branch,
and Pecky will climb out
and retrieve the snail.
Kit will need you on medical duty.
Excellent plan, Major.
I'll come along too, uh, to supervise.
Now, let's move out!
Woo!
Okay, the snail is located on the other
side of the Fun Zone obstacle course.
It'll be easiest to
go around it. Come on.
Forget that. I'll just
cut straight through.
But the obstacle course will take
longer. It's full of obstacles.
Think I'm too old to save a snail.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Let's go around.
Uh-uh.
Ow!
Oh!
Here I come.
Oh!
Oh!
Got it.
Prickles will save you!
Here I come!
Wait! I will no!
Oh!
Uh-uh!
There you go, little buddy!
Great work, team!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Major, are you okay?
It's my heart, Kit. It's broken.
Oh, I'll get the defibrillator.
No, kid.
I think I might be.
old, useless. People are laughing at me.
Oh, that's not true.
Funny old hedgehog!
I've always been a hedgehog of
action. Am I still up to the job?
Oh, no!
Oh, I'll get it!
Hey, ooh!
Look!
Look!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Prickles!
Are you there?
Oh.
This is Prickles.
Major, where have you
been? We were worried.
I've been doing some thinking, and I've
decided to retire from
Big Tree City rescue.
But why?
This birthday has shown me that I'm
no longer the rescuer this team needs.
It's not an easy decision,
but it's for the best.
No!
Don't go!
Good luck, everyone.
It has been an honor.
Happy birthday to me.
Hmm.
Funny old head talk.
Oh, Prickles can't
retire. He's our leader.
But he said it was for the
best, and he's always right.
Let's just return the birthday cake.
There's not going to be
any celebrating today.
Which is the exit for
the giant cake bakery?
First exit!
No, second exit.
What?
Hang on!
It's the first one!
Second!
Make up your minds!
Left here!
Oh, right!
Nice one!
Now we've gone past it!
That's it!
Can someone please just take charge?
Oh!
Mommy, can I get sprinkles on mine?
Awesome!
Right, who was supposed
to tie the cake down?
I thought Splash was going to do it.
I thought Tritch was going to do it.
Why do I have to do it?
It doesn't matter now.
Let's just stop it!
I'll knock it over!
Me too!
Blame!
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
It's heading for
Capital Park!
I'll winch the cake.
I'll warn the citizens!
Ah! Strikes! You're in the way!
More tea for you, Major.
What do I do now?
I've been a rescuer for years.
I could take up gardening, I suppose.
Prune my roses.
I'd have to get some roses and a garden.
It's rolling straight for the fun zone!
Oh, this is a disaster!
We've never had to stop a
giant runaway cake before.
An old-fashioned,
Giant runaway cake rescue.
I wish Major Prickles was here.
He'd tell us what to do.
But I'm old and too
slow. What could I do?
Of course!
Come in, team! This is your leader!
Prickles!
Get to the Fun Zone on the double!
We've got a birthday cake to stop!
On my signal, kit!
Wait for it!
Wait for it!
Now!
Flib! Give me all you got!
Give me all you got!
Give me all you got!
That was terrific, Major.
You knew exactly what to do.
I've learned what to do
from years of rescuing.
So will you and you're older.
Yay!
This calls for a real
birthday celebration!
Let's party!
Yes, but I want to do it my way.
Yes.
Good morning, Big Tree
City. I'm Ted Lister.
And I'm Pam Sprout.
And this is BTCN.
Over to Moose for the Traffic Report.
Busy, Rwriters, Rudy, busy
this day, traffic, uh, my man.
Thanks, Moose.
Ted, I've always wondered what it would be
like to be part of Big Tree City Rescue.
Well, one to know more, because
this week I'll be finding
and I'll be taking you with me.
Sounds like great television, Ted.
Doesn't it?
I can't wait to discover the real
heroes doing their really heroic things.
Oh, who
Hmm.
Making an insertion.
Oh, plaster's present and correct.
Oh, I can't wait to
show Ted Lister what it
means to be a member of
Big Tree City Rescue.
Me too! I'm gonna show
Ted my racquetball!
Yeah, what about my firetrak horn?
What about my super duper sucky plunger?
It can plunge anything!
Yes!
And my favorite thermometer.
What?
It's not a competition.
Remember, we're all part of the team,
an equally important part of the team.
What matters is that
we all work together.
This just in.
Me.
It's dead!
It's dead.
Hello, Big Tree City rescuers.
Never before, have cameras
touched on the inner workings of
this famous building and these
even more famous team members.
I can't wait to show you
what the team can do.
That sounds excellent. Where do we start?
I can do 18 donuts!
A truly amazing display of a digger
driving in circles really quickly.
I can do press-ups one-handed!
I have a plunger!
It's greater TV than we ever anticipated.
What could be more exciting?
I can measure
Emergency!
Everyone to the briefing room!
Now that's more exciting!
This is the perfect way
for us to show Ted List
the broad range of emergencies
we have to deal with.
Mr. Dishcloth's trolley
has rolled away again.
This looks super urgent.
I'll go, Major. Might need a digger.
Or a wrecking ball.
Yes, I'll go too in
case something explodes.
And me.
Marvelous. Don't you love
their enthusiasm, Ted?
I love it.
I'll come too in case
someone needs medicine.
Oh, well, as you wish. Move out!
Woo!
There's absolute chaos
in the streets today,
as a rogue shopping
cart is barreling away.
Here comes Big Tree City Rescue now!
How will they ever stop it?
Well, um, that's it!
Rescue done!
Sometimes it's the simple
Wait, we're not done!
We must return it to its owner!
I'm on it!
No, I'm on it!
So, no!
I got the groceries!
Incoming!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Trolly returned!
Good job, team!
It's on!
I'm in this one!
I'm in this one.
I stop the trolley and save the bananas.
There's absolute chaos
in the streets today
as a rogue shopping
cart is barreling away.
Here I come.
We must return it to its owner.
Huh? Where's it again?
Zodo!
I catch the groceries here!
Incoming!
Woo!
Woo!
Woo!
Incredible scenes today.
All thanks to the dynamic
heroes of Big Tree City Rescue.
I'm Ted Lister.
Go-b-go-boh!
Marvelous stuff, team!
Looks like you really put on a show!
Thanks, Major.
Didn't see much of you, Kit.
Better luck next time, eh?
I was there. I just
He left me out.
It's all about them.
How come they're on camera
the whole time and not
You, Stripes.
Ted's making a TV show.
Audiences don't want
the boring guys like us.
Ha! I'm not boring.
Stripes is right, you know.
Becky, Flames, Splash.
They're dynamic.
They chat around doing stuff.
I do stuff.
Just the other week I was
organized in the aspirin
by use by date.
Ted wants great TV.
And that's SmashBush!
Bang Wallop.
Becky does everything at maximum.
That's why Ted likes her so much.
Maximum, you say.
In this scenario, I'm
performing CPR of this patient.
If he was alive, I would
have saved him by now.
Uh, let's go and see what Pecky's up to.
I heard a big noise
in the garage earlier.
Wait, I have more to show you.
Yes?
Uh, a stethoscope.
Does it explode?
No, it
Oh.
Team to the briefing room.
We have an emergency of sorts.
I'll handle this, Major.
Oh, okay. It's just a
Sounds like a job for someone with a
crazy ambulance and a wacky sidekick.
I'll take stripes.
Well, all right then.
Move!
Come in?
Hold on to your hats.
Make sure the camera.
Okay, okay, calm down to your hats.
Make sure the camera's on me.
Okay, okay, calm down people.
Why's the problem here?
My ball's stuck.
Thank goodness it's
not serious or dynamic.
Oh, well, folks, not every rescue
can be as exciting as yesterday's.
Wait!
This is a serious situation.
Um, the ball could fall in this
trolley, and then roll up down in!
Another card.
Just like yesterday.
Well, it seems like things are
very much under control here.
Here we go.
Wait!
Sorry, I thought I saw something.
You're making this into
a big deal, aren't you?
It is a big deal!
I just don't want things
to escalate out of control.
This is all to impress Ted, isn't it?
Ted?
I'm Ted Lister, live on the
scene and Big Tree City.
Oh no.
And with today's rescue, nowhere
near is fun, it's time for me.
Have you lost your mind?
This will be the biggest, most
dynamic TV-friendly rescue ever.
A situation that calls for real
heroes, doing a real rescue.
And how are you going to do that?
I
Don't no.
Whoa!
Uh-huh!
He's heading straight for the river.
Terry, you might want to hop on the back.
Oh!
I escaped the river, but I'm not
crazy about this angle, Terry.
I escaped the river, but
what will happen next?
Stay tuned! I'm Ted Lisser!
Hold on!
Ah!
Kit, you've gone too far!
There's no way we can save Ted now!
I've not gone far enough!
I could smash cars out of the whale,
blast them with a hose,
or use a hose, or use a to
to stop the traffic!
Okay, fine. I can't do
this. I'm not dynamic.
But I know who is.
Pecky, flame, splash!
Ted Lister's in danger
and I need your help!
Jamal, let's go!
Move out!
Oh! Yes!
I'm now hurtling towards the busiest
roundabout in Big Tree City. Am I doomed?
This just in, I'm doomed!
We're too lying!
I'm Ted Lister!
Oh!
He's up! Ah!
Ah!
Whoa!
Big Tree City rescue!
Ready to rescue!
Are you hurt?
I am hurt.
Stand back!
Medic on the scene!
Amazing scenes here at Busy Roundabout,
as your host is saved
by Big Tree City Rescue,
particularly the VTC Medic, Kit.
Thanks, Ted.
Look forward to seeing you
back in six to eight weeks.
Well done, kids!
Yay!
Hi!
Funkey!
I can't wait to use my body again.
I am sorry, by the way, Ted.
No problem, kid. It
made great television.
I'm Ted Lister. This is BTCN. Good night.
I don't know.

How old and old person is?

blast them with a hose,
or use a hose, or use a to
to stop the traffic!
Okay, fine. I can't do

Pecky, flame, splash!
Ted Lister's in danger
and I need your help!
Jamal, let's go!
Move out!
Oh! Yes!
I'm now hurtling towards the busiest
roundabout in Big Tree City. Am I doomed?
This just in, I'm doomed!
We're too lying!
I'm Ted Lister!
Oh!
He's up! Ah!
Ah!
Whoa!
Big Tree City rescue!
Ready to rescue!
Are you hurt?
I am hurt.
Stand back!
Medic on the scene!
Amazing scenes here at Busy Roundabout,
as your host is saved
by Big Tree City Rescue,
particularly the VTC Medic, Kit.
Thanks, Ted.
Look forward to seeing you
back in six to eight weeks.
Well done, kids!
Yay!
Hi!
Funkey!
I can't wait to use my body again.
I am sorry, by the way, Ted.
No problem, kid. It
made great television.
I'm Ted Lister. This is BTCN. Good night.
I don't know.
You know,
