MIRA: "The Case of the Secret Gift-Giver."
(HUMMING)
CHIKKU: Is she done yet?
Patience, Chikku. Patience.
If she's still humming,
she's still working.
One last touch, and finished!
Wow, Priya.
Seriously great.
Is it me, or does the lady in the picture
look a lot like Queen Shanti?
Chikku, it is Queen Shanti.
Priya made this artwork as a special gift
-for the Queen's birthday.
-BOTH: Wow.
I love how you made every jewel
on her sandals sparkle.
So beautiful, Priya.
The Queen's sandals are one of a kind.
They have to sparkle.
I can't think of a more perfect gift
for the Queen.
Me neither. My mother is going to love it.
I better get going.
It'll take a while to get
this portrait wrapped.
-Thanks again, Priya.
-My pleasure, Neel.
WOMAN: Oh, my, oh, my!
Oh, my!
What was that?
Someone needs our help.
WOMAN: They're so beautiful.
Uh, guys, that's just my Auntie Pushpa.
It sounds like she's happy.
Really happy! Let's go see.
(SNIFFING) Just lovely.
Wow. Look at all these flowers,
Auntie Pushpa.
Have you ever seen anything like it?
And they're all for me.
Who gave them to you, Mummy?
I have no idea, Priya.
I found them right outside the door
when I opened the boutique this morning.
(BOTH SNIFFING)
Ah! There's nothing
like the sweet smell of fresh flowers.
-(SNIFFING)
-(SNEEZES)
Ooh.
Hey, there's a card.
It looks like the flowers
are a gift to your family, Auntie.
But it doesn't say who they're from.
KAMALA: Mira, Mira.
Has anyone seen Mira?
Right here, Kamala. Is everything okay?
No! Something really mysterious happened.
Unbelievably mysterious!
You have to come check it out.
MIRA: Okay, we're coming.
Someone left this huge box
of jalebis for my family.
How exactly is that mysterious?
The word I'd go with is "yummy"!
It's mysterious because
my parents don't know who gave it to us.
-I see. Is there a card?
-Yes.
But there's no name on it.
MIRA: Huh!
It has a drawing of two hands together,
just like your mom's card, Priya.
Do you think both gifts
are from the same person?
It sure seems that way.
But who could it be?
Somebody left
Such a thoughtful gift ♪
Who could it be?
Who could it be? ♪
Wonderful sweets for the family ♪
Who could it be?
Who could it be? ♪
So kind and surprising ♪
So why are they hiding? ♪
Mira, look at this!
A basket of bangles
Showed up at our door ♪
Who could it be?
Who could it be? ♪
Kanjiras for everyone
Come and see ♪
Who could it be?
Who could it be? ♪
Let's find out who gave them ♪
So we can go thank them ♪
Gifts, gifts for all of us ♪
Oh, oh, oh ♪
Gifts, gifts for all of us ♪
Oh, oh, oh ♪
Who could it be?
Who could it be? ♪
-Who could it be? ♪
-(MOOS)
Who could it be? ♪
All started with my flowers
A mystery ♪
Why are we whispering? ♪
Gifts, gifts for all of us ♪
-Another one!
-Who could it be? ♪
-Who could it be? ♪
-Us, too!
Gifts, gifts for all of us ♪
It's the same card!
Who could it be?
Who could it be? ♪
Who could it be? ♪
This is the nicest thing
that has ever happened in Jalpur.
But who would do
such a lovely thing, Mira,
and without even getting credit?
Yeah, Mira. We need answers.
Because I really,
really want to thank them.
-Me, too, Mira.
-So do I.
(MOOING)
I don't know who's handing out
all these gifts.
But trust me, I will find them
so everyone can say thank you.
We're on the case
of the secret gift-giver.
We're on the case

We're on the case ♪
Okay, so we know the secret gift-giver
has been leaving gifts all over Jalpur.
I like this mystery.
No one did anything wrong.
And nothing's missing.
I wonder where they're going
to strike next.
Somebody's gonna get gifted.
(BOTH CELEBRATING)
How can we track down
the secret gift-giver
if no one has any idea who they are?
Maybe they left a clue
when they dropped off a gift.
Let's start by talking to your mother.
Auntie Pushpa,
can you show me exactly
where you found the flowers?
Of course, darling.
They were right outside this door.
Did you notice anything unusual
when you went out to get them?
Hmm, let me think.
Yes, I heard an ox.
An ox? Got it.
How is that unusual?
Well, we don't have many oxen
coming by the boutique.
We don't have anything in their size.
I see some ox tracks.
But they disappear around here.
Hey, what does an ox sound like, anyway?
(IMITATES GROWLING)
I think.
Mira, how do we find out where
the secret gift-giver is headed next?
We don't.
Instead, let's check out some place
we know they've already been.
The flower stand.
Why the flower stand?
That's the only place in Jalpur
that sells enough flowers
to fill your mother's shop.
Chalo, chalo! Let's go!
Hi, Dhruv. Hello, Mrs. Sharma.
Hello, Mira, I hope
you're not here to buy flowers.
Yeah, this morning,
someone bought all of them.
BOTH: Really?
Maybe it was the secret gift-giver.
Hey, Dhruv, can you give us a description
of what this person looked like?
Well, their face was hidden
behind a scarf, like this.
Hmm. Did you happen to see this person
leave in an ox cart?
Yup, with a blue cover on it.
They loaded all of the flowers
into the back of the cart and took off.
And you know the strangest part?
After they left,
my mom found a gift for our family.
BOTH: Another one!
Yes, someone left us
the most delicious laddus.
One thing's for sure,
the secret gift-giver has great taste.
Truly, it's the most perfect gift
to our family.
Our favorite sweets.
When you found the gift,
did you also find a card like this?
Yes, I did.
Do you mind if we borrow your card?
We'll add it to our collection.
Go ahead, take it, dear.
That's very helpful.
Thanks.
When you find the secret gift-giver,
tell them thank you for us.
KAMALA: Mira, Mira,
you're not going to believe this.
More people got secret gifts.
-More?
-I wonder what they got.
I collected their thank-you cards
so you can keep track of them.
That's great, Kamala.
Everyone's going to meet
down by the river later,
so we can share our gifts.
Sounds like a party.
We'll be there as soon
as I solve this case.
Okay, this map shows each spot
where the secret gift-giver has been.
Looks like most of the families
in Jalpur have gotten gifts.
Most, but not all. Check it out.
This is the one street in Jalpur
that hasn't gotten any gifts yet.
So, the secret gift-giver
could be headed there next.
Exactly, Priya.
And if we watch this street,
maybe we'll see them drop off more gifts.
Hear that, Chikku,
we might get to see the gift-giver
In action.
Chalo, chalo! Let's go!
This street is pretty long.
I think we should split up
so we can cover more ground.
Chikku and I will go to
the other end of the street.
We move like shadows.
No one will see us.
Ow!
Come on.
I'll watch the middle of the street
and hide in that doorway.
Great, and I'll be down here.
Remember, stay quiet and keep an eye out
-for a blue-covered ox cart.
-Will do.
-Got it, Mira.
-All over it.
(MOOING)
MIRA: An ox cart with a blue cover.
Just like the one Dhruv saw.
I wonder if
the secret gift-giver is inside.
The person has a hidden face.
And is dropping off
another gift and another thank-you card.
That must be the secret gift-giver.
But who is it?
Wait a second.
Sparkly sandals. I've seen those before.
But where? Think, Mira, think.
I know.
In Priya's picture of Queen Shanti.
That means the secret gift-giver
must be Queen Shanti.
Oh!
Secret gift-giver?
Are you Queen Shanti, Your Majesty?
Yes, Mira, you are right.
I should've known my Royal Detective
would figure it out.
Rubi, my lady in waiting,
thought you would.
Why have you been giving everyone gifts?
Especially since today is your birthday.
Oh, and happy birthday.
(CHUCKLES) Thank you, my dear.
I chose to give the people of Jalpur
gifts on my birthday,
because they are a gift to me.
But why are you doing it in secret?
There is no reason for anyone to know.
I don't want people
making a big fuss over me.
Your Majesty, there are people
down by the river having a big party.
They're sharing the gifts you gave them
because you made them happy.
It's making them want
to make other people happy.
Please let them thank you.
I love your passion, Mira.
She's very convincing, Your Majesty.
-So, what are you thinking?
-I have a plan.
Could you please meet me
at the river in a few minutes?
I have to take care of a few things first.
Very well. Shall we?
(OX MOOING)
Mira, Mira, I heard an ox.
Was that the cart?
Did you see the secret gift-giver?
Was there another surprise gift?
Yes, yes and yes.
The secret gift-giver
is headed down to the river.
Meet me down there.
I have to get Neel from the palace.
Is the case closed or not closed?
BOTH: Beats me.
(DRUMS BEATING)
(FLUTE MUSIC PLAYING)
-Sure!
-That was wonderful.
QUEEN SHANTI: Ah, everyone's
having such a good time.
Thanks to you, Your Majesty.
-Are you ready?
-QUEEN SHANTI: I am.
Excuse me, everyone.
I have an announcement.
Today, you've all been visited
by a secret gift-giver,
and you asked me to find out who it is
so you can say thank you.
(ALL CLAMORING)
BOY: Tell us, tell us, tell us, please.
Who could it be?
The secret gift-giver has agreed
to come out of hiding.
May I introduce
(ALL GASP)
ALL: Queen Shanti! No way.
BOTH: Seriously?
Mira has convinced me
that in order to share in your joy,
my identity can no longer be a secret.
Thank you all for making Jalpur a place
I'm so proud to call home.
Now, the case of
the secret gift-giver is closed.
Nice work, Mira.
Wait, there's more.
We have a gift for you, Mother.
-Priya made it.
-And I helped wrap it.
Oh, Priya, it's beautiful.
Thank you so much.
It was my pleasure, Your Majesty.
This has truly been the best birthday
I have ever had.
Happy birthday.
Happiest of birthdays, Mother.
Happy birthday, Queen Shanti.
(ALL CHEER)
Mikku, Chikku,
I couldn't forget a gift for you two.
I can't believe it.
BOTH: Fluffy pillows.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
And Mira, this is for you.
(GASPS) A new tabla.
Thank you so much, Queen Shanti.
(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)
MIRA: "Mystery at the Cooking Contest."
There's nothing more exciting
than a cooking contest.
Oh, yes. I can smell it in the air.
CHIKKU: Bananas!
Excellent choice of ingredients, Pinky.
-What are you making, Pinky?
-I call it "Banana Surprise."
Ooh! I can't wait to taste it.
Hey, Dhruv, what are you making?
I'm making
Uh
-I don't know yet.
-(CLATTERING)
I grabbed everything I could find
in my mom's kitchen.
Wow. Good luck, Dhruv.
Kamala, I brought your favorite apron.
Thanks so much, Mira.
I can't believe I forgot it.
I don't like to cook without it.
Kamala, no matter what happens,
your mother and I are so proud of you.
Yes, Kamala. And we love you so much.
Thanks, Papa. Thanks, Mama.
BOTH: Good luck!
Oh, Mira, I'm so nervous.
I'm making my dad's special rice pudding.
He's such a great cook.
You're a great cook, too, Kamala.
(SNIFFING) You're telling me.
-What is that
-Glorious smell?
I made a practice batch of rice pudding.
-Wanna taste it?
-ALL: Sure.
I'll take a taste.
-Mm.
-Delish.
That's amazing.
Mm, so good!
-(TRAIN HORN BLOWING)
-NEEL: It's working. It's finally working.
Wow, Neel. What is that?
My newest invention.
I call it the food train.
After everyone's food is ready,
this will take it right to the judge.
Great idea, Neel.
-Oh, can we try it?
-Sure.
-(TRAIN HORN BLOWS)
-Oh, yeah. Choo-choo.
CHIKKU: All aboard!
Okay, it's speeding up.
MIKKU AND CHIKKU: Runaway train!
MIKKU: And we didn't even do anything.
Everybody, duck!
Soggy samosas.
Sorry, Kamala.
It's okay. Just a little spill.
My train should not be
running out of control like that.
I guess it's back to the workshop.
(HORN BLOWS)
Queen Shanti must be ready
to start the contest.
It's time!
Come on, Dhruv. You've got this.
You got this, buddy. Oh, yeah.
QUEEN SHANTI: Welcome, dear friends,
to the Jalpur Kids' Cooking Contest.
I'd like to introduce you
to our wonderful guest judge,
-Chef Shobha.
-(ALL CHEER)
(ALL WHOOPING)
Thank you. It's such an honor to be here.
There's nothing I love more
than encouraging kids to cook.
Chefs, good luck
-And enjoy!
-(APPLAUSE)
Chef Shobha is amazing.
When she says something's yummy-licious,
that means she thinks it's really great.
Today, I will award one fine young chef
with this golden spoon.
-(ALL CHEERING)
-Can you imagine how much
-we could eat with that thing?
-Hmm. I'm imagining it right now.
Prince Veer is in charge of keeping time.
-Veer.
-Thank you, Mother.
May I just say, it is a great honor
Chefs, when I say go, you begin.
When the sand in my hourglass
reaches the bottom,
you must stop.
Then put your dishes on
my little brother's little train.
-ALL: Got it.
-Ready?
Steady. Go.
-(ALL CHEERING)
-Okay, let's get cooking.
(GASPS) Oh, no. My bowl of rice.
Mira, it's gone.
It has to be here somewhere.
-Don't see it.
-Nope.
I can't make rice pudding without rice.
What am I going to do?
Don't worry, Kamala. We'll find it.

Kamala, I need to ask you some questions.
I don't have time for questions.
Everyone's working, except me.
Kamala, you'll catch up.
Does anyone have some rice you could use?
No, I'm the only one using rice.
Okay, let's focus on
finding your rice, then.
Give me details, the more the better.
It was cooked white rice in a blue bowl,
and there was a silver spoon in it
with a lotus-shaped handle.
Got it. Now can you show me
-exactly where you left the bowl?
-It was here. No, wait.
It got knocked over.
Yes! I cleaned up the spill,
then moved it here,
to this table.
Hmm. Check this out.
Sand.
How did sand get here?
-Was anyone else over here?
-Well,
Mikku and Chikku were tasting
my practice dish.
Taste? Wait a second.
-Dhruv tasted your practice dish, too.
-(GASPS)
-Do you think he knows where my rice is?
-Maybe. Let's go ask.
Hey, Dhruv, we have a problem.
-(YEAST BUBBLING)
-Join the club.
Whoa!
Thanks, Mira.
Maybe I should add more yeast.
That would make my recipe even bigger.
-(BUBBLING)
-I think it's probably big enough.
Hey, did you happen
to pick up a bowl of rice?
Kamala's rice is missing.
Nope, I put a lot of different things
in my dough,
but not rice.
Actually, is it too late to add rice?
-Hey!
-Mm!
Hey, wait a second.
This is my spoon.
Dhruv, why do you have the spoon
that was in my rice bowl?
Oh, I borrowed it from Pinky.
Let's go talk to her.
Pinky, have you seen my rice?
Rice? No. I'm all about bananas today.
Have you ever seen
more perfectly sliced bananas?
I mean, have you?
So where did you get the spoon?
From the supply cabinet.
It's got lots of spoons.
-MIKKU: Hey, Mira!
-(BOTH CHOMPING)
There's something bitter and crunchy
on these bananas.
-(SPITS)
-Ew!
BOTH: It's sand.
Sand, again?
I wonder where it's coming from.
Hmm.
Pinky, you can't use these bananas.
There's sand on them.
You mean I have to peel more bananas?
Yes!
Time is running out, chefs.
This is hopeless, Mira.
Everyone else is almost done
and I haven't even started yet!
Kamala, it's not over yet.
Let's check the supply cabinet.
Hey, I see some bits of rice over here.
-My rice?
-There's something else, too.
Let's take a closer look.
BOTH: Sand!
More sand?
Why is there so much sand
at a cooking contest?
There will be no more
taste testing of sand, Mira.
No. Just, no.
Why are we talking about sand?
We should be talking about my rice.
Sand must have something to do
with your missing rice.
Let's think this through.
First, we found sand
where Kamala left her bowl.
-Then we found some on Pinky's bananas.
-BOTH: Ew!
MIRA: Then, when we found some rice,
right next to it was
ALL: More sand.
There's only one other place
I saw sand today,
in Prince Veer's hourglass.
The sand is what shows
how much time is left.
What if sand was leaking out?
Then everywhere Prince Veer went,
he would've left sand behind.
We need to talk to him.
-Where's that Prince?
-Veer!
Prince Veer, would you mind
checking your hourglass?
-Whoa!
-I think it might be leaking.
What? Impossible.
I designed and built it myself.
However, there might be a teeny tiny leak.
Prince Veer, we found a trail of sand
when we were looking
for Kamala's missing rice.
Did you see a blue bowl with cooked rice?
Oh, you mean that bowl?
Yes, that's it.
But where's my rice?
-Uh, I threw it out.
-BOTH: What?
Well, the bowl was half empty.
I've been trying to keep everything tidy
so I put it in the bin
with those other dirty dishes.
Veer, that rice was
one of Kamala's ingredients.
Oh, no. I had no idea you needed it.
I'm so sorry, Kamala.
-Really.
-It's okay.
Kamala, please don't give up.
It's not your fault this happened.
-Well, what can I do, Mira?
-I'll tell you.
We're going to say something to the queen.
Your Majesty, Chef Shobha, Prince Veer,
Kamala's rice went missing
so she hasn't had time
to finish her dish for the contest.
Yes, dear. Prince Veer was just
telling us what happened.
Hourglasses, am I right?
I will fix it right away, Mother.
Thank you, Veer.
And Mira, we're going to do
something about this problem.
Hello, chefs.
We just found out that
our time keepers' hourglass was leaking.
So we're adding five more minutes
to the contest.
-Whoo-hoo!
-Yes!
-Good luck.
-Thank you, Chef.
See, Kamala, you have a little more time.
Thanks Mira, but without rice,
-I don't know what I can make.
-Kamala, wait.
Last time I came to your house,
you made that amazing dessert, remember?
BOTH: Oh, we remember.
And it didn't have rice in it.
Can't you make something
with the ingredients you do have?
Well, I guess I have one idea.
-Do it.
-Go get 'em.
Time's up, everyone.
Prince Neel, please bring out
the completed dishes.
(TRAIN ENGINE STARTS)
-Please work. Please work. Please work.
-(TRAIN HORN BLOWS)
A food train?
-What a delightful idea!
-Yes.
And now, young chefs,
it's time to begin the judging.
I made fresh sliced bananas
sprinkled with
just a touch of brown sugar.
Oh, a lovely rangoli design,
and such evenly cut slices.
Mm.
-(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)
-Thank you, Chef.
Chef, I had a little problem.
I threw in extra everything,
and, well, it's stuck in the oven.
(SWORD CLANKING)
You might actually need a new oven.
Ah, so you took a risk,
and for that I say, "Well done."
Thank you, Chef.
(APPLAUSE)
Now what have we here?
KAMALA: Coconut laddus.
I couldn't make what I planned to,
so I tried something new.
Thanks to Mira and my other friends.
Mm. Yummy-licious!
-(CHEERING)
-(GASPS) She said it.
I can't believe she said it.
This is the best-tasting laddu
I've ever had.
Best looking, too.
Thank you, Chef.
For your yummy-licious dish,
and for not giving up
when things didn't go as planned,
Kamala, you are the winner
of the Cooking Contest's Golden Spoon!
I won?
-(ALL CHEERING)
-I won.
Kamala, my daughter, the chef.
I am so proud of you.
Oh, Kamala,
that Golden Spoon will look beautiful
on the wall of our chai shop.
Thanks, Mama.
We knew you could do it, Kamala.
Thank you, Mira. Thank you, everyone.
And Prince Neel,
I'm so glad your invention worked.
-(TRAIN HORN BLOWING)
-MIKKU: Whoa!
MIKKU: Out of control!
BOTH: Food train!
