MIRA: "The Mongoose Cousin Mystery."
It's flying. I finally got it to fly!
(WIND WHOOSHING)
Oh! Seriously?
Testing, testing.
-One, two.
-(SOUND DISTORTS)
Soggy samosas!
Wow, Neel. What is that?
I call it the boom blaster.
I'm going to use it to announce
the kite parade today.
If I can get it to work.
Guys, Mikku and Chikku are here.
Ooh, they always make
the most amazing kites.
-GIRL: Oh, they're here!
-All right.
MIRA: I can't wait to see what they made.
So what's your big kite this year?
Patience, dear fans.
Are Preeti and Neeti here yet?
Your cousins are coming
to the kite parade?
Yep. All the way from the big city,
but I guess we can give
our number one fans a sneak peek.
Bhanu?
(BLEATING)
-(CROWD APPLAUDING)
-ALL: Ooh!
MIRA: Incredible!
NEEL Right.
This year we went with a food theme.
Actually we go with a food theme
every year.
This time, it's the shape
of one of our favorite deserts.
A jalebi!
PREETI: What a kite!
Your kite is amazing.
-Preeti! Neeti!
-Cousins!
Bring it in, cuz.
You made it.
Of course. We're always happy
to get out of the city.
You too, cuz.
-(GROANING)
-Watch the glasses!
And the ribs!
This is Mira.
The royal detective.
Nice to meet you, Neeti and Preeti.
Did you bring a kite?
Mira, we specifically told them
they didn't have to bring a kite.
Yeah, they're gonna be very busy
watching us fly our kite.
Oh, cuz.
Of course, we brought a kite.
BOTH: Ta-da!
(MIRA GASPS)
-BOTH: Wow!
-It's so beautiful.
-Thanks.
-Thank you.
Now, (CLEARS THROAT)
there are a lot of things
you need to know
about being in the kite parade.
There are?
Lucky for you,
you've got your older cousins
to help you out.
Sounds great. Bring it on!
First, you got to know
which way the wind is blowing.
BOTH: That way!
DIMPLE: Mama, look at the pretty kite.
Dimple, please come back here.
Let's go back to your mom, Dimple.
Please, can I stay?
I'm sorry, sweetie
but your grandma needs us today,
and we get to ride on a water taxi.
Oh! Water taxi!
You dropped something, aunty.
Thank you, Mira.
The lentil stuffing
in Dimple's doll keeps falling out.
Another thing we have to fix.
First the rickshaw, now this. (SIGHS)
Let's go, Dimple.
Okay, Preeti and Neeti.
Next thing to keep in mind
when flying a kite.
Stay focused.
And don't get distracted. Very important.
BOTH: Got it.
BOTH: Ooh!
BOTH: Snacks!
Snacks are an important part
of kite flying too.
Yeah, you do not want to fly a kite
on an empty stomach.
-I'm with you.
-Sounds good to me.
How about I wait in line for snacks
while you all secure your kites?
-Excellent plan.
-Good thinking.
Now,
you need to make sure
your kite doesn't fly away.
So, we get some help
from our friend, Bhanu.
-Thanks, Bhanu.
-(BLEATING)
Bhanu, where are you going?
Well, if you can't find a goat,
you can put yours down on this table.
BOTH: Okay.
Um, but it could blow away from there.
Don't you think?
Not if you use a rock like this
one to hold it down.
Hmm.
Do you think that rock's big enough?
The wind seems a little strong today, cuz.
Oh, sure. It'll be fine.
Who wants a jalebi?
ALL: Yay! Jalpur snacks.
Mmm, yum.
Jalpur has the best jalebis ever.
NEEL: Kite flyers, it's almost time.
The parade is starting soon.
Let's go get our kites.
Hey, what happened to our kite?
It's not on the table.
-It's not?
-Where is it?
Here's the rock.
Uh, I thought it was supposed
to hold down our kite.
I guess the wind was really strong.
And the rock I picked
might not have been big enough.
(GASPS) Oh, no!
What if our kite blew away?
Don't worry. We'll find your kite
before the parade starts.
We are on the case of the missing kite.
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 ♪
So the last time you saw your kite,
it was on the table, right?
Yes, but if it blew away,
how will we ever find it?
Don't worry. Mira is a great detective.
And we are excellent helpers.
If we all work together,
we will find your kite.
Let's start by looking for some clues.
We're expert clue-finders.
Can you believe it? We're on a case.
This would never happen in the city.
Argh! Ow!
Good job, Chikku.
You led us to our first clue.
It's what I do.
Does this ribbon look familiar?
-BOTH: Yes.
-It's from our kite.
Great. Let's make a note of it.
But how will one ribbon help us
find our kite?
-This park is huge.
-It could be anywhere.
Let's take a closer look at the ribbon.
(GASPS) A magnifying glass.
Mikku, Chikku.
Do you guys get to use it too?
Oh, yeah.
She lets us use it all the time.
MIRA: Now this is interesting.
See these marks on the ribbon?
It looks like a bike or a cart
rode over it.
BOTH: Ah!
We need to look on the ground
for matching tracks.
Maybe, they'll lead us to your kite.
ALL: Yeah!
Chalo, chalo, let's go.
ALL: Yeah! Yes!
(SNEEZES)
Mira, Mira. I found some tracks.
Oh! There are so many tracks.
Everywhere.
How do we know which are the right ones?
Let's take another look at the ribbon.
What does the pattern look like?
ALL: Snacks.
Well, we do think
everything looks like snacks.
-So true.
-(LAUGHS)
I see the love of food runs in the family.
(GASPS) It also looks like bricks
on a building.
Good one, Neeti.
(LAUGHS) Yeah, you're right.
We have a lot of buildings in the city,
so I see bricks like all the time.
Everyone, let's look
for brick shaped tracks.
-Okay. Brick tracks.
-We definitely know what they look like.
Hey, Neeti, I wish
we didn't loose our kite.
But getting to be detectives
is pretty great.
And so is running through soft grass.
We never get to do that in the city.
You know what's even better?
Running through the grass
without your shoes.
Really?
We never wear shoes.
-Try it.
-Wait.
No shoes?
At all?
(BOTH EXCLAIM CHEERFULLY)
PREETI: This feels amazing.
(EXCITED CHATTER CONTINUES)
(ALL LAUGHING)
Hey look, more brick tracks.
-Over here.
-MIRA: Great.
-They are so good.
-Amazing.
NEEL: Hello, kite flyers.
Please line-up by the stage.
The kite parade will begin shortly.
Oh, no, it's too late.
We're not gonna have our kite
before the parade.
MIRA: Neeti. Preeti.
We're not stopping
until we find your kite.
Mira never gives up.
And neither do we.
Uh What do we do now?
We just need to keep following the tracks
and looking for clues.
BOTH: On it.
-I found a leaf.
-I found a branch.
I'm not sure those are clues,
Preeti and Neeti.
Those are things you expect
to find on a road.
We're looking for something that seems
-out of place.
-ALL: On it.
Chikku, are you coming?
Hang on. I got a bunch of pebbles
between my toes.
I don't think those are pebbles.
They look like
Yellow lentils.
I saw someone with yellow lentils before.
Let's think this through.
The yellow lentils
fell out of Dimple's stuffed doll.
So, everywhere she went,
she probably dropped lentils.
What if
Dimple saw the kite on the ground
and picked it up?
So, Dimple took the kite?
We need to ask her.
Dimple's mom said
they were catching a water taxi.
Let's head to the river.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
Cousin Neeti,
the river is that way.
Oopsie.
Dimple, where are you?
Where are you?
(GASPS) There she is.
Dimple does have the kite.
You were right.
Wow. Mira.
That's our Royal Detective.
She's good.
One small problem.
We need a boat to get to Dimple.
and there are no boats around.
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Only if you're thinking what I'm thinking.
On the count of three.
BOTH: One,
two
(WATER SPLASHES)
-We forgot three.
-No time for three.
-Swim.
-(BOTH GRUNTING)
Go, Mikku. Go, Chikku.
-Those guys are my cousins.
-Go, go, go, go.
(BOTH GRUNTING)
Gooses.
(SHIVERS)
Oh, my.
Whoopsies. Sorry, aunty.
Mikku. Chikku.
Want can I do for you?
We need to talk to Dimple.
Dimple, you have our cousins' kite.
This? I found it
blowing around on the ground.
But is it yours, Dimple?
No. I'm sorry, gooses.
That's okay, Dimple.
Our cousins are going
to be so happy to have it back.
Come on, guys. Come on, guys!
-I hope they bring it back in time.
-MIKKU AND CHIKKU: Woo-hoo.
(GASPS) They got our kite.
They got our kite. They got our kite.
Victory. They did it.
BOTH: Whee.
-Woo-hoo!
-Oh, yeah.
BOTH: Ta-da.
The case of the missing kite is closed.
So closed.
Great job, guys.
Neeti, Preeti, we're sorry
we acted like we knew
everything about kites.
We just wanted you
to think we're really great.
Oh, Chikku, we do think
you're really great.
Yeah, you're amazing at solving mysteries.
(SHUDDERS) Happy tears,
happy tears, happy tears.
Aw, bring it in, cuz.
Yeah, you too, cuz.
-Glasses.
-Oh, ribs.
Aw.
Uh, guys.
Sorry to interrupt your moment,
but we should get going
so we can make the parade.
ALL: The parade.
Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome Jalpur's Royal Detective
-Mira and her lotus flower kite.
-(CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS)
And now a beautiful peacock kite
from first time kite flyers visiting
from the city.
-Preeti and Neeti.
-(CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS)
And last but not least,
-Mikku and Chikku.
-(CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS)
With a jalebi kite
-that looks good enough
-(MEGAPHONE FEEDBACK)
Good enough to eat.
GIRL: Wow.
MAN: Beautiful.
(CROWD CONTINUES EXCLAIMING)
GIRL: They're beautiful.
They're flying so high.
Oh. The Kite Festival is incredible.
Hey, can we come every year?
I'm sure Mikku and Chikku
would love that.
BOTH: Definitely.
Whoa
(CONTINUE SCREAMING)
(ROOSTER CROWS)
MIRA: "The Marble Egg Mystery."
Kamala, I'm so proud of you.
It's not every day the Queen
wants to serve your sweets
at a royal event.
Thanks, Mira. But I'm so nervous.
I just want everything to be perfect.
Do you think this box looks okay?
It's beautiful.
And your laddoos are amazing.
The Queen's guests will love them
just as much as we do.
Well, maybe not as much as we do.
Mmm, uh-uh, no way.
-We love 'em more.
-Thanks, Mikku and Chikku.
-Here.
-BOTH: Ow!
(BOTH GRUNT)
Huh. Well, that worked out.
Quite a pile of laddoos
you've got there, Chikku.
Not as big as yours.
Yet!
Kamala, I need you.
What is it, Dimple? Everything okay?
No, I need someone
to play hopscotch with me.
Hopscotch?
I don't have time for hopscotch.
Dimple, let your sister finish
packing her laddoos.
Kamala, here's the last batch.
-Thanks, Mom.
-Hello, Mira dear.
Thank you so much for helping Kamala.
-Of course. Happy to, aunty.
-NEEL: Ahhh!
-Soggy samosas!
-(CRASHES)
Neel, are you okay?
I'm fine, but
Kamala.
Your laddoos are not so fine.
Sorry, let me help you restack them.
Thanks, Prince Neel.
These look amazing.
-Don't you think, Neel?
-Yeah. Incredible.
BOTH: Runaway laddoo.
-(BOTH SHOUTING)
-I got it. I got it.
(CLUCKING)
Raj got it.
-(CLUCKING)
-Not cool, Raj.
-Not cool.
-(CLUCKING)
(CLUCKING)
So, you know how my mom is hosting
a royal lunch today.
Of course.
She asked Kamala
to make sweets for the event.
Well, she also wanted
a special gift for our guest.
Princess Shivani. And guess who
she asked to pick it out for her.
BOTH: Prince Veer?
No. Not my brother.
-Me.
-That's great, Neel.
You have to see the gift I chose.
-Any chance it might happen to be
-Snacks.
Nope. It's an egg.
Um, an egg?
Eh, I already had breakfast.
It's not a real egg.
There's a picture of it on the box.
It's made of marble, a kind of stone.
Check it out.
(GASPS) Where is it?
It's gone.
This can't be happening.
The Royal Lunch is starting soon.
My mom trusted me with
this important royal duty.
I can't let her down.
Neel, don't worry.
We'll find it before the lunch starts.
We're on the case
of the missing marble egg.

Kamala, can you pack
the rest of the boxes,
-while I help Neel?
-Sure, Mira.
Thanks. Now, Neel,
please describe the marble egg in detail.
Well, it's white and it opens up.
Was there a baby chick inside?
-I bet there was.
-What if it escaped?
Here, baby chick.
Here, little chicky.
Guys, it's not a real egg.
Actually, there's a tiny
marble elephant inside.
That's why I chose this gift.
The elephant is the symbol of our kingdom.
What better way to welcome a royal guest.
-May I see the box?
-Sure, Mira.
The egg has a pattern on it.
That could help us find it.
A-ha. Very interesting.
-What's that, Chikku?
-This fancy box
is the perfect size for my laddoo.
You could even call it a laddoo box.
Maybe the egg fell out of the box.
Neel, let's search your rickshaw.
Great idea.
No sign of a marble egg anywhere.
Mikku? Chikku?
-Nothing.
-Nope.
(WHEEL SQUEAKING)
Neel, check it out.
This wheel is wobbly.
But this one's not.
NEEL: Hmm.
Both wheels were fine
when I left the palace,
but I did hit a bump
at the top of that hill.
That must have bent the wheel.
-Then maybe that's where
-The marble egg fell out?
Yes!
Let's go look.
We'll be right here if you need us.
Keeping close watch
for any eggs rolling around out there.
I hit the bump here.
See the wheel tracks?
-(GASPS)
-What is it, Neel?
Check out that pattern on the ground.
Hmm. Just like the one on the egg.
So it did land here.
Maybe it rolled down the hill.
Oh, rolling race.
I am in.
No, guys, not a rolling race.
We think the marble egg
rolled down the hill.
But you just gave me an idea.
We can roll something else down the hill
to see where the marble egg
would have gone.
-I wanna roll.
-Ooh, pick me, pick me.
(LAUGHS) Sorry, guys.
We need to roll something that's about
the same size and weight
as the marble egg.
Like this laddoo?
Thanks, Chikku.
But we need something more solid.
I was hoping she'd say that.
Mmm. Something like
This rock.
Perfect fit.
Maybe I should ride my rickshaw
over the bump again
and see if this rock falls out and rolls.
Exactly.
And if it does, we'll know
that's what the marble egg did too.
Then we can follow the rock
and see where it lands.
-And maybe
-BOTH: We'll find the marble egg.
Okay, Neel, show me what happened.
So I was coming down the hill here
towards that bump.
-The box was right here on the seat.
-Excellent.
Mikku and Chikku,
I have an important job for you two.
If the rock falls out and starts rolling,
can you follow it?
-Sure thing.
-We won't let you down.
Ready, steady, go!
I hit the bump there.
The wheel got wobbly,
and the marble egg must have bounced out.
MIRA: Just like that.
NEEL: Then it would
have hit that spot on the ground.
And rolled down the hill.
CHIKKU: Go, rock!
MIKKU: You can do it, little rock!
Whoa, the rock went in the door.
So the marble egg must have, too.
BOTH: Follow that rock!
It stopped right on the hopscotch board.
Ooh, then I bet the marble egg did, too.
But I don't see the egg anywhere.
Don't worry, Neel, we'll find it.
VEER: Find what?
Uh Um
Nothing, Veer.
Well, well, well,
don't tell me you lost
the rare, priceless gift
that our dear mother entrusted to you.
It's not lost,
it's just been misplaced.
But I've got the Royal Detective
on the case.
That's right, Prince Veer.
Neel will have it in time for the lunch.
There's nothing
to worry about.
-Yeah!
-Who's worried? (CHUCKLES) Not me.
Well, Mother just sent me to tell you
that Princess Shivani just arrived,
so you may wanna
speed up your search.
She's here already? She's early.
Go on ahead, Veer.
I'll I'll be right behind you.
As you wish, little brother.
See you back at the palace.
Mira, it's too late.
The princess is already at the palace.
We're not giving up, Neel.
We're really close, I can feel it.
Look, the same pattern
is on the hopscotch board.
That means the marble egg did land here.
Then where is it?
Someone must have picked it up.
Let's think this through.
We know that Dimple was
playing hopscotch earlier.
We also know that when Neel hit
the bump in the road,
his marble egg fell out
and rolled down the hill,
right onto Dimple's hopscotch board.
So what if Dimple picked
up the marble egg?
We need to talk to Dimple.
(DIMPLE HUMMING)
-ALL: Dimple!
-Gooses!
Is she ever gonna call us mongooses?
Hi, gooses!
Do you want to help me feed the chickens?
Does she mean Raj, the angry chicken?
BOTH: No, thank you.
Dimple, Prince Neel
lost a very special egg.
-An egg?
-Did you see it?
Yes, but that's not your egg, Prince Neel.
It's my chicken's egg.
Mira, I bet Dimple thought
the marble egg was a real egg
and gave it to the chickens.
Dimple, did you give the special egg
to your chickens?
Yeah, my chicken, Rani.
She's gonna have a baby chicken now.
Can you show us?
Yes.
But you have to be super quiet though,
'cause Raj doesn't like a lot of noise
when Rani's sitting on an egg.
That's it. That's the egg.
Dimple, it's not a real egg.
It's a marble egg that
Prince Neel really needs.
Oh, sorry, Prince Neel.
You can have it back.
If I can get it back.
(ANGRY CLUCKING)
Prince Neel, Mira, we got this.
Right, Chikku?
Uh, this one's all you, Mikku.
-Hello there, Mr
-(ANGRY CLUCKING)
Thanks for your time. Bye.
Wait, I have an idea.
Remember when Raj ate the laddoo
that fell off the table?
BOTH: Oh, yeah.
That means he likes laddoos.
Now, if only I had one to offer him.
Go ahead, take it, Mira.
It's for the good of the case.
Thanks, guys. Now, as soon as
he's safely away
I'll grab the marble egg.
Perfect.
-Raj, have some laddoo.
-(CLUCKING)
Here you go. That's a good chicken.
Come on, follow me.
Right this way. That's it. There you go.
Sorry, Rani. This egg actually belongs
to the Queen, and I was just wondering
-(ANGRY CLUCKING)
-(NEEL SCREAMS)
(EXCLAIMS)
Some for you, too, Rani.
-Phew.
-(CLUCKING)
The case of the marble egg is closed.
ALL: Yes!
BOTH: Oof!
Now, we just need
to get dressed for the party,
grab the egg and Kamala's laddoos,
and head to the palace.
Princess Shivani,
it's so lovely to have you come visit.
Thank you, Queen Shanti.
Mmm, these laddoos are so delicious.
Yes, they are made
by one of the finest young chefs
in Jalpur, dear Kamala.
Oh, I'm so glad you like them.
We have a very special gift
for you, Princes Shivani.
Prince Neel picked it out for you himself.
Thank you, Mother. It's a great honor.
(GASPS)
-Feather.
-And here it is.
What a beautiful gift. Oh, look.
There's an elephant inside.
Thank you, Prince Neel.
Well done, Neel. Very well done.
I think Neel is ready
for more royal duties.
Don't you, Veer?
Oh, yes, Mother. Beginner's luck.

MIRA: "The Mongoose Cousin Mystery."
It's flying. I finally got it to fly!
(WIND WHOOSHING)
Oh! Seriously?
Testing, testing.
-One, two.
-(SOUND DISTORTS)
Soggy samosas!
Wow, Neel. What is that?
I call it the boom blaster.
I'm going to use it to announce
the kite parade today.
If I can get it to work.
Guys, Mikku and Chikku are here.
Ooh, they always make
the most amazing kites.
-GIRL: Oh, they're here!
-All right.
MIRA: I can't wait to see what they made.
So what's your big kite this year?
Patience, dear fans.
Are Preeti and Neeti here yet?
Your cousins are coming
to the kite parade?
Yep. All the way from the big city,
but I guess we can give
our number one fans a sneak peek.
Bhanu?
(BLEATING)
-(CROWD APPLAUDING)
-ALL: Ooh!
MIRA: Incredible!
NEEL Right.
This year we went with a food theme.
Actually we go with a food theme
every year.
This time, it's the shape
of one of our favorite deserts.
A jalebi!
PREETI: What a kite!
Your kite is amazing.
-Preeti! Neeti!
-Cousins!
Bring it in, cuz.
You made it.
Of course. We're always happy
to get out of the city.
You too, cuz.
-(GROANING)
-Watch the glasses!
And the ribs!
This is Mira.
The royal detective.
Nice to meet you, Neeti and Preeti.
Did you bring a kite?
Mira, we specifically told them
they didn't have to bring a kite.
Yeah, they're gonna be very busy
watching us fly our kite.
Oh, cuz.
Of course, we brought a kite.
BOTH: Ta-da!
(MIRA GASPS)
-BOTH: Wow!
-It's so beautiful.
-Thanks.
-Thank you.
Now, (CLEARS THROAT)
there are a lot of things
you need to know
about being in the kite parade.
There are?
Lucky for you,
you've got your older cousins
to help you out.
Sounds great. Bring it on!
First, you got to know
which way the wind is blowing.
BOTH: That way!
DIMPLE: Mama, look at the pretty kite.
Dimple, please come back here.
Let's go back to your mom, Dimple.
Please, can I stay?
I'm sorry, sweetie
but your grandma needs us today,
and we get to ride on a water taxi.
Oh! Water taxi!
You dropped something, aunty.
Thank you, Mira.
The lentil stuffing
in Dimple's doll keeps falling out.
Another thing we have to fix.
First the rickshaw, now this. (SIGHS)
Let's go, Dimple.
Okay, Preeti and Neeti.
Next thing to keep in mind
when flying a kite.
Stay focused.
And don't get distracted. Very important.
BOTH: Got it.
BOTH: Ooh!
BOTH: Snacks!
Snacks are an important part
of kite flying too.
Yeah, you do not want to fly a kite
on an empty stomach.
-I'm with you.
-Sounds good to me.
How about I wait in line for snacks
while you all secure your kites?
-Excellent plan.
-Good thinking.
Now,
you need to make sure
your kite doesn't fly away.
So, we get some help
from our friend, Bhanu.
-Thanks, Bhanu.
-(BLEATING)
Bhanu, where are you going?
Well, if you can't find a goat,
you can put yours down on this table.
BOTH: Okay.
Um, but it could blow away from there.
Don't you think?
Not if you use a rock like this
one to hold it down.
Hmm.
Do you think that rock's big enough?
The wind seems a little strong today, cuz.
Oh, sure. It'll be fine.
Who wants a jalebi?
ALL: Yay! Jalpur snacks.
Mmm, yum.
Jalpur has the best jalebis ever.
NEEL: Kite flyers, it's almost time.
The parade is starting soon.
Let's go get our kites.
Hey, what happened to our kite?
It's not on the table.
-It's not?
-Where is it?
Here's the rock.
Uh, I thought it was supposed
to hold down our kite.
I guess the wind was really strong.
And the rock I picked
might not have been big enough.
(GASPS) Oh, no!
What if our kite blew away?
Don't worry. We'll find your kite
before the parade starts.
We are on the case of the missing kite.
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 ♪
So the last time you saw your kite,
it was on the table, right?
Yes, but if it blew away,
how will we ever find it?
Don't worry. Mira is a great detective.
And we are excellent helpers.
If we all work together,
we will find your kite.
Let's start by looking for some clues.
We're expert clue-finders.
Can you believe it? We're on a case.
This would never happen in the city.
Argh! Ow!
Good job, Chikku.
You led us to our first clue.
It's what I do.
Does this ribbon look familiar?
-BOTH: Yes.
-It's from our kite.
Great. Let's make a note of it.
But how will one ribbon help us
find our kite?
-This park is huge.
-It could be anywhere.
Let's take a closer look at the ribbon.
(GASPS) A magnifying glass.
Mikku, Chikku.
Do you guys get to use it too?
Oh, yeah.
She lets us use it all the time.
MIRA: Now this is interesting.
See these marks on the ribbon?
It looks like a bike or a cart
rode over it.
BOTH: Ah!
We need to look on the ground
for matching tracks.
Maybe, they'll lead us to your kite.
ALL: Yeah!
Chalo, chalo, let's go.
ALL: Yeah! Yes!
(SNEEZES)
Mira, Mira. I found some tracks.
Oh! There are so many tracks.
Everywhere.
How do we know which are the right ones?
Let's take another look at the ribbon.
What does the pattern look like?
ALL: Snacks.
Well, we do think
everything looks like snacks.
-So true.
-(LAUGHS)
I see the love of food runs in the family.
(GASPS) It also looks like bricks
on a building.
Good one, Neeti.
(LAUGHS) Yeah, you're right.
We have a lot of buildings in the city,
so I see bricks like all the time.
Everyone, let's look
for brick shaped tracks.
-Okay. Brick tracks.
-We definitely know what they look like.
Hey, Neeti, I wish
we didn't loose our kite.
But getting to be detectives
is pretty great.
And so is running through soft grass.
We never get to do that in the city.
You know what's even better?
Running through the grass
without your shoes.
Really?
We never wear shoes.
-Try it.
-Wait.
No shoes?
At all?
(BOTH EXCLAIM CHEERFULLY)
PREETI: This feels amazing.
(EXCITED CHATTER CONTINUES)
(ALL LAUGHING)
Hey look, more brick tracks.
-Over here.
-MIRA: Great.
-They are so good.
-Amazing.
NEEL: Hello, kite flyers.
Please line-up by the stage.
The kite parade will begin shortly.
Oh, no, it's too late.
We're not gonna have our kite
before the parade.
MIRA: Neeti. Preeti.
We're not stopping
until we find your kite.
Mira never gives up.
And neither do we.
Uh What do we do now?
We just need to keep following the tracks
and looking for clues.
BOTH: On it.
-I found a leaf.
-I found a branch.
I'm not sure those are clues,
Preeti and Neeti.
Those are things you expect
to find on a road.
We're looking for something that seems
-out of place.
-ALL: On it.
Chikku, are you coming?
Hang on. I got a bunch of pebbles
between my toes.
I don't think those are pebbles.
They look like
Yellow lentils.
I saw someone with yellow lentils before.
Let's think this through.
The yellow lentils
fell out of Dimple's stuffed doll.
So, everywhere she went,
she probably dropped lentils.
What if
Dimple saw the kite on the ground
and picked it up?
So, Dimple took the kite?
We need to ask her.
Dimple's mom said
they were catching a water taxi.
Let's head to the river.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
Cousin Neeti,
the river is that way.
Oopsie.
Dimple, where are you?
Where are you?
(GASPS) There she is.
Dimple does have the kite.
You were right.
Wow. Mira.
That's our Royal Detective.
She's good.
One small problem.
We need a boat to get to Dimple.
and there are no boats around.
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Only if you're thinking what I'm thinking.
On the count of three.
BOTH: One,
two
(WATER SPLASHES)
-We forgot three.
-No time for three.
-Swim.
-(BOTH GRUNTING)
Go, Mikku. Go, Chikku.
-Those guys are my cousins.
-Go, go, go, go.
(BOTH GRUNTING)
Gooses.
(SHIVERS)
Oh, my.
Whoopsies. Sorry, aunty.
Mikku. Chikku.
Want can I do for you?
We need to talk to Dimple.
Dimple, you have our cousins' kite.
This? I found it
blowing around on the ground.
But is it yours, Dimple?
No. I'm sorry, gooses.
That's okay, Dimple.
Our cousins are going
to be so happy to have it back.
Come on, guys. Come on, guys!
-I hope they bring it back in time.
-MIKKU AND CHIKKU: Woo-hoo.
(GASPS) They got our kite.
They got our kite. They got our kite.
Victory. They did it.
BOTH: Whee.
-Woo-hoo!
-Oh, yeah.
BOTH: Ta-da.
The case of the missing kite is closed.
So closed.
Great job, guys.
Neeti, Preeti, we're sorry
we acted like we knew
everything about kites.
We just wanted you
to think we're really great.
Oh, Chikku, we do think
you're really great.
Yeah, you're amazing at solving mysteries.
(SHUDDERS) Happy tears,
happy tears, happy tears.
Aw, bring it in, cuz.
Yeah, you too, cuz.
-Glasses.
-Oh, ribs.
Aw.
Uh, guys.
Sorry to interrupt your moment,
but we should get going
so we can make the parade.
ALL: The parade.
Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome Jalpur's Royal Detective
-Mira and her lotus flower kite.
-(CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS)
And now a beautiful peacock kite
from first time kite flyers visiting
from the city.
-Preeti and Neeti.
-(CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS)
And last but not least,
-Mikku and Chikku.
-(CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS)
With a jalebi kite
-that looks good enough
-(MEGAPHONE FEEDBACK)
Good enough to eat.
GIRL: Wow.
MAN: Beautiful.
(CROWD CONTINUES EXCLAIMING)
GIRL: They're beautiful.
They're flying so high.
Oh. The Kite Festival is incredible.
Hey, can we come every year?
I'm sure Mikku and Chikku
would love that.
BOTH: Definitely.
Whoa
(CONTINUE SCREAMING)
(ROOSTER CROWS)
MIRA: "The Marble Egg Mystery."
Kamala, I'm so proud of you.
It's not every day the Queen
wants to serve your sweets
at a royal event.
Thanks, Mira. But I'm so nervous.
I just want everything to be perfect.
Do you think this box looks okay?
It's beautiful.
And your laddoos are amazing.
The Queen's guests will love them
just as much as we do.
Well, maybe not as much as we do.
Mmm, uh-uh, no way.
-We love 'em more.
-Thanks, Mikku and Chikku.
-Here.
-BOTH: Ow!
(BOTH GRUNT)
Huh. Well, that worked out.
Quite a pile of laddoos
you've got there, Chikku.
Not as big as yours.
Yet!
Kamala, I need you.
What is it, Dimple? Everything okay?
No, I need someone
to play hopscotch with me.
Hopscotch?
I don't have time for hopscotch.
Dimple, let your sister finish
packing her laddoos.
Kamala, here's the last batch.
-Thanks, Mom.
-Hello, Mira dear.
Thank you so much for helping Kamala.
-Of course. Happy to, aunty.
-NEEL: Ahhh!
-Soggy samosas!
-(CRASHES)
Neel, are you okay?
I'm fine, but
Kamala.
Your laddoos are not so fine.
Sorry, let me help you restack them.
Thanks, Prince Neel.
These look amazing.
-Don't you think, Neel?
-Yeah. Incredible.
BOTH: Runaway laddoo.
-(BOTH SHOUTING)
-I got it. I got it.
(CLUCKING)
Raj got it.
-(CLUCKING)
-Not cool, Raj.
-Not cool.
-(CLUCKING)
(CLUCKING)
So, you know how my mom is hosting
a royal lunch today.
Of course.
She asked Kamala
to make sweets for the event.
Well, she also wanted
a special gift for our guest.
Princess Shivani. And guess who
she asked to pick it out for her.
BOTH: Prince Veer?
No. Not my brother.
-Me.
-That's great, Neel.
You have to see the gift I chose.
-Any chance it might happen to be
-Snacks.
Nope. It's an egg.
Um, an egg?
Eh, I already had breakfast.
It's not a real egg.
There's a picture of it on the box.
It's made of marble, a kind of stone.
Check it out.
(GASPS) Where is it?
It's gone.
This can't be happening.
The Royal Lunch is starting soon.
My mom trusted me with
this important royal duty.
I can't let her down.
Neel, don't worry.
We'll find it before the lunch starts.

Kamala, can you pack
the rest of the boxes,
-while I help Neel?
-Sure, Mira.
Thanks. Now, Neel,
please describe the marble egg in detail.
Well, it's white and it opens up.
Was there a baby chick inside?
-I bet there was.
-What if it escaped?
Here, baby chick.
Here, little chicky.
Guys, it's not a real egg.
Actually, there's a tiny
marble elephant inside.
That's why I chose this gift.
The elephant is the symbol of our kingdom.
What better way to welcome a royal guest.
-May I see the box?
-Sure, Mira.
The egg has a pattern on it.
That could help us find it.
A-ha. Very interesting.
-What's that, Chikku?
-This fancy box
is the perfect size for my laddoo.
You could even call it a laddoo box.
Maybe the egg fell out of the box.
Neel, let's search your rickshaw.
Great idea.
No sign of a marble egg anywhere.
Mikku? Chikku?
-Nothing.
-Nope.
(WHEEL SQUEAKING)
Neel, check it out.
This wheel is wobbly.
But this one's not.
NEEL: Hmm.
Both wheels were fine
when I left the palace,
but I did hit a bump
at the top of that hill.
That must have bent the wheel.
-Then maybe that's where
-The marble egg fell out?
Yes!
Let's go look.
We'll be right here if you need us.
Keeping close watch
for any eggs rolling around out there.
I hit the bump here.
See the wheel tracks?
-(GASPS)
-What is it, Neel?
Check out that pattern on the ground.
Hmm. Just like the one on the egg.
So it did land here.
Maybe it rolled down the hill.
Oh, rolling race.
I am in.
No, guys, not a rolling race.
We think the marble egg
rolled down the hill.
But you just gave me an idea.
We can roll something else down the hill
to see where the marble egg
would have gone.
-I wanna roll.
-Ooh, pick me, pick me.
(LAUGHS) Sorry, guys.
We need to roll something that's about
the same size and weight
as the marble egg.
Like this laddoo?
Thanks, Chikku.
But we need something more solid.
I was hoping she'd say that.
Mmm. Something like
This rock.
Perfect fit.
Maybe I should ride my rickshaw
over the bump again
and see if this rock falls out and rolls.
Exactly.
And if it does, we'll know
that's what the marble egg did too.
Then we can follow the rock
and see where it lands.
-And maybe
-BOTH: We'll find the marble egg.
Okay, Neel, show me what happened.
So I was coming down the hill here
towards that bump.
-The box was right here on the seat.
-Excellent.
Mikku and Chikku,
I have an important job for you two.
If the rock falls out and starts rolling,
can you follow it?
-Sure thing.
-We won't let you down.
Ready, steady, go!
I hit the bump there.
The wheel got wobbly,
and the marble egg must have bounced out.
MIRA: Just like that.
NEEL: Then it would
have hit that spot on the ground.
And rolled down the hill.
CHIKKU: Go, rock!
MIKKU: You can do it, little rock!
Whoa, the rock went in the door.
So the marble egg must have, too.
BOTH: Follow that rock!
It stopped right on the hopscotch board.
Ooh, then I bet the marble egg did, too.
But I don't see the egg anywhere.
Don't worry, Neel, we'll find it.
VEER: Find what?
Uh Um
Nothing, Veer.
Well, well, well,
don't tell me you lost
the rare, priceless gift
that our dear mother entrusted to you.
It's not lost,
it's just been misplaced.
But I've got the Royal Detective
on the case.
That's right, Prince Veer.
Neel will have it in time for the lunch.
There's nothing
to worry about.
-Yeah!
-Who's worried? (CHUCKLES) Not me.
Well, Mother just sent me to tell you
that Princess Shivani just arrived,
so you may wanna
speed up your search.
She's here already? She's early.
Go on ahead, Veer.
I'll I'll be right behind you.
As you wish, little brother.
See you back at the palace.
Mira, it's too late.
The princess is already at the palace.
We're not giving up, Neel.
We're really close, I can feel it.
Look, the same pattern
is on the hopscotch board.
That means the marble egg did land here.
Then where is it?
Someone must have picked it up.
Let's think this through.
We know that Dimple was
playing hopscotch earlier.
We also know that when Neel hit
the bump in the road,
his marble egg fell out
and rolled down the hill,
right onto Dimple's hopscotch board.
So what if Dimple picked
up the marble egg?
We need to talk to Dimple.
(DIMPLE HUMMING)
-ALL: Dimple!
-Gooses!
Is she ever gonna call us mongooses?
Hi, gooses!
Do you want to help me feed the chickens?
Does she mean Raj, the angry chicken?
BOTH: No, thank you.
Dimple, Prince Neel
lost a very special egg.
-An egg?
-Did you see it?
Yes, but that's not your egg, Prince Neel.
It's my chicken's egg.
Mira, I bet Dimple thought
the marble egg was a real egg
and gave it to the chickens.
Dimple, did you give the special egg
to your chickens?
Yeah, my chicken, Rani.
She's gonna have a baby chicken now.
Can you show us?
Yes.
But you have to be super quiet though,
'cause Raj doesn't like a lot of noise
when Rani's sitting on an egg.
That's it. That's the egg.
Dimple, it's not a real egg.
It's a marble egg that
Prince Neel really needs.
Oh, sorry, Prince Neel.
You can have it back.
If I can get it back.
(ANGRY CLUCKING)
Prince Neel, Mira, we got this.
Right, Chikku?
Uh, this one's all you, Mikku.
-Hello there, Mr
-(ANGRY CLUCKING)
Thanks for your time. Bye.
Wait, I have an idea.
Remember when Raj ate the laddoo
that fell off the table?
BOTH: Oh, yeah.
That means he likes laddoos.
Now, if only I had one to offer him.
Go ahead, take it, Mira.
It's for the good of the case.
Thanks, guys. Now, as soon as
he's safely away
I'll grab the marble egg.
Perfect.
-Raj, have some laddoo.
-(CLUCKING)
Here you go. That's a good chicken.
Come on, follow me.
Right this way. That's it. There you go.
Sorry, Rani. This egg actually belongs
to the Queen, and I was just wondering
-(ANGRY CLUCKING)
-(NEEL SCREAMS)
(EXCLAIMS)
Some for you, too, Rani.
-Phew.
-(CLUCKING)
The case of the marble egg is closed.
ALL: Yes!
BOTH: Oof!
Now, we just need
to get dressed for the party,
grab the egg and Kamala's laddoos,
and head to the palace.
Princess Shivani,
it's so lovely to have you come visit.
Thank you, Queen Shanti.
Mmm, these laddoos are so delicious.
Yes, they are made
by one of the finest young chefs
in Jalpur, dear Kamala.
Oh, I'm so glad you like them.
We have a very special gift
for you, Princes Shivani.
Prince Neel picked it out for you himself.
Thank you, Mother. It's a great honor.
(GASPS)
-Feather.
-And here it is.
What a beautiful gift. Oh, look.
There's an elephant inside.
Thank you, Prince Neel.
Well done, Neel. Very well done.
I think Neel is ready
for more royal duties.
Don't you, Veer?
Oh, yes, Mother. Beginner's luck.
