MIRA: "The Mysterious Polo Player."
Go, Neel! You got this!
So he has to hit the ball into the goal
and then he gets
-A snack?
-A point, Chikku, a point.
That's how you get a point
in the game of polo.
(NEEL GRUNTS)
-Where'd it go?
-(HORSE NEIGHS)
No! Soggy samosas.
I can't believe I missed that shot.
Watch and learn, little brother.
There. A perfect goal.
Watch and learn.
Sorry, Veer, no time.
I'm headed to the town park to play polo.
Park? Why in the world
would you play polo in the town park?
Priya and I started our own team.
Wanna play with us?
Mira, I can't play on your team.
I'm a prince.
Well, I'm a prince,
and I'm playing on her team.
Some princes have responsibilities.
Like a royal lunch to attend.
Okay. But you're missing out
on a great time, Veer.
-Come on, everyone.
-(BOTH LAUGHING)
Town park team?
(SCOFFS) Please.
Priya, you have truly outdone yourself.
If we're going to have a polo team,
our team is gonna have style.
Uh, does this helmet
come in any other colors,
like maybe pink?
Pinky, I know you love pink,
but our team color is blue.
And check it out.
Priya painted the balls to match.
I'm all about the details.
MIKKU: Hey, uh, Mr. Pony,
you're going the wrong way.
-Wrong way!
-CHIKKU: About face, Mr. Pony!
Mira, we got the ponies.
Great. We have everything we need.
Okay, use your mallet
to hit the ball into that goal.
Let's play!
(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
(GRUNTS)
Leg over Whoa! Oopj!
PRIYA: Whoa!
I got it. (GRUNTS)
(HORSE NEIGHS)
Soggy samosas. I missed again.
Is this right?
-Pinky, come back!
-Where are you going?
Whoo! I made a shot.
Except it's the wrong goal.
Seems like we're having
a really hard time playing together.
It's gonna take more than helmets,
balls and ponies
to make our team play well.
What is it going to take?
(MIKKU AND CHIKKU PANTING)
Whoa! (GROANS)
PRIYA: It'll take a miracle.
Hmm?
Hi. Are you here to play with us?
-(CLEARS THROAT)
-Why is he grunting?
You got me.
Maybe he speaks in grunts.
-(GRUNTS)
-Oh. Oh, okay, okay.
I love speaking in grunts, too.
(GIGGLES)
(GRUNTING)
That means, "My name is Pinky."
These are my friends. What's your name?
(GRUNTS)
Well, whatever his name is, let's play!
(GRUNTING)
Oh, yeah. Now I can see where I'm going.
Thanks.
Mmm-mmm.
(GRUNTING)
Oh. I'm bringing my mallet too high.
-I get it.
-(GRUNTS)
I made the shot.
I can't believe I made the shot.
Thank you, uh, whoever you are.
(GRUNTS)
I got it, I got it!
Mmm-mmm.
Oh, you're right. It's the wrong goal.
I scored! And in the right goal!
You guys, we're playing so well!
Yeah. Thank you, um Thanks.
-(BELL TOLLING)
-Hmm?
(GRUNTING)
(GRUNTING)
Was it something I grunted?
Hey! Where are you going?
MIRA: We were just getting kinda good.
(PINKY GRUNTING)
That means "please stay" in grunt.
Guess he didn't hear me.
We need that player on our team.
Yeah, we play so much better
when he's here.
(EXHALES)
And we don't have to chase so many balls.
There's only one thing we can do.
Find him so we can ask him
to be on our team.
We are on the case
of the mysterious polo player.
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 ♪
How are we going to find him?
We don't know where he lives
or his name or anything.
True, but we do have this,
a boot he left behind.
How does a boot help us?
All we have to do is find the boy
with the matching boot
-and we'll know we found him.
-But how, Mira?
Yeah. It's not like we can just go
door to door
asking people if they lost a boot.
Why not?
It's a great idea, Priya.
Let's head into town
and start knocking on doors.
I can make some posters
to hang in the marketplace,
in case anyone comes
looking for a lost boot.
(GRUNTS) That means "I'll help."
We are going to search the whole town
until we find the boy
with the missing boot.
We're looking for someone ♪
It wasn't just a dream ♪
Yeah, he's the one we need ♪
To make us a better team ♪
He ran off so quickly ♪
We only have one clue ♪
-It's got a funny smell ♪
-Pee-ew ♪
Detective coming through ♪
Who's got a boot
with a strap on the front? ♪
-Like this?
-Mmm, not quite right.
What about you? Do you speak grunt? ♪
-Huh?
-I don't think so.
Anyone see a boy on the run? ♪
WOMAN: No, not me. I haven't seen him.
We won't be done ♪
Until we find the one ♪
-Check every house ♪
-Check every house ♪
-Try every door ♪
-Try every door ♪
Until we find
The boy we're looking for ♪
-Down every street ♪
-Down every street ♪
-Try every store ♪
-Try every store ♪
Won't stop until we find ♪
The boy we're looking for ♪
The boy we're looking for ♪
NEEL: No luck.
What now, Mira?
Maybe the boot can help us.
NEEL: Circles and triangles.
That's an interesting pattern.
So, if we find his boot prints
on the ground,
we can follow them to figure out
where he went?
Exactly.
Let's split up and search
for the boot prints.
The boot prints go this way,
then they stop right here.
I don't see any more, Mira.
BOTH: Nothing.
It doesn't make any sense.
He couldn't have just disappeared.
-Wait!
-What?
MIRA: I think that's a print.
It could be a match.
Excuse me, Uncle.
May we examine the boot print
on your boat?
Of course, Mira.
The Royal Detective is always welcome
to investigate my boat.
It's a perfect match!
BOTH: Yes!
Did a boy with his face covered like this
ride in your water taxi earlier today?
Indeed he did.
In fact, he was in such a hurry,
he nearly knocked me into the river
when he got on.
Great! Oh, I mean about finding him.
Not about almost knocking you
into the river, Uncle.
Where did you take him?
-To the palace.
-The palace?
So maybe he's the son of a royal guard.
Or of a lady-in-waiting.
We need to get to the palace and find out.
But how will we get there?
Chikku, we are standing on a boat!
Ooh. Convenient.
Next stop, the palace!
(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
-Thanks for the ride, sir.
-My pleasure.
Mira, I see a boot print over here.
And I smell something.
Something glorious!
There's a royal lunch
in the courtyard today.
I bet that's what you're smelling.
MIRA: It's definitely a match.
Let's check out the trail.
MIKKU: And the menu.
-The trail ends
-here.
You were right, Neel. It is a royal lunch.
What do we do now?
Well, Neel, you might consider changing
into something more appropriate
for the occasion.
I'm not here to go
to the royal lunch, Veer.
We're on a case.
Speaking of cases,
what's the story with leftovers?
Hmm. We better investigate.
Ahhh!
Uh, Chikku, you've turned into a boot!
(GASPS) The matching boot.
Neel, this is a break in the case.
How is that a break in the case?
We've got two boots, but no player.
Veer, someone showed up at the park
and played polo with our team.
We're trying to find him.
(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY) Really?
But why would you want to find him?
Because he was incredible.
He made all of us play so much better.
We really want him to join our team.
Fascinating.
That's just fascinating.
Well, good luck with that!
MIRA: Veer, you dropped something.
Thanks, Mira.
Wait! I know who the mystery player is.
BOTH: You do?
Prince Veer, could I have
just a moment of your time?
Mira, I have responsibilities.
It'll just take a minute.
Um, okay.
Let's think this through.
After the mystery player ran away,
we followed the boot prints into the boat
and then to the palace.
But I wasn't sure who it could be
until that ball fell out
of your coat, Prince Veer.
It's one of the special balls
that Priya painted blue
just for our polo team.
Veer, why do you have
a ball from our team?
Because I'm the mystery player!
-It was me!
-(ALL GASP)
Veer, you're the mystery player?
BOTH: What?
Yes. You're right, Mira.
About everything.
But why did you wear a disguise?
Yeah. Anyone can play on our team.
When you told me about your team,
I really wanted to play, but I can't.
-Why not?
-Because I'm not just a prince.
I'm the future king of Jalpur.
-Nonsense, Veer.
-Mother?
Of course you can play on a team
with your friends.
-I can?
-Yes, dear.
You can play on any team you want.
Really? That's great news!
So, Prince Veer, does that mean
you'll join our team?
Naturally, your team needs me.
But yes, Mira, I'd love to join your team.
-Wa-hoo!
-He's in!
The case of the mysterious polo player
is closed.
-Nice work, Mira.
-Thank you, Neel.
Now, let's play!
(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
(ALL GRUNTING)
-Whoa.
-Nice shot.
Pass it to me, I'm open!
(HORSE NEIGHS)
(GRUNTS)
NEEL: Watch and learn, big brother.
Watch and learn.
Good one, Neel!
Nice work, little brother!
MIKKU: Hey, people,
the mongooses are in the game!
Behold our polo skills!
-Wrong way!
-Wrong way, mister pony!
-Wrong way, wrong way!
-Wrong way!
MIRA: "The Case of the Secret Treasure."
PRIYA: Ugh!
When is it ever going to stop raining?
It's monsoon season, Priya.
All it does is rain.
Okay, the last piece goes right here.
NEEL: Nice work, Mira.
It's so hot!
-What next?
-We're bored.
You could help me start
a new puzzle, Chikku.
-Seriously?
-You're right.
I love puzzles, but after the tenth one,
I'm all puzzled out.
I know. Let's play a game.
Like hide-and-seek.
-Now you're talking!
-Yeah!
Yes, people!
You guys hide, I'll seek.
Five, four, three,
two, one!
Ready or not, here I come!
Hmm. Not here.
Not here.
(GIGGLES) Found you.
-Aw.
-Now, where are the others?
MIKKU: Hey, quit scratching me.
CHIKKU: I'm not.
You found us already?
-It's your fault, Mikku.
-My fault?
You're the one who kept scratching me.
I was not scratching you.
Maybe something else
back there scratched you, Mikku.
Let's check.
Ugh. There's something there.
It looks like a treasure map.
Really?
I heard that my great-grandmother
made a treasure map
and hid it somewhere in the palace.
The great-grandmother who was an inventor?
Yup. According to the stories
my mom told me,
she left behind a secret treasure map
that no one has ever found.
I wonder what the treasure is.
It could be a box of gold!
-Or treats.
-Or treats wrapped in gold.
Best of both worlds.
How do you even know
that it's the real map?
We don't. But there's one person
who will know for sure.
Indeed, Neel.
It is your great-grandmother's map.
You can tell by this symbol.
Is that a banyan tree, Queen Shanti?
Yes, Mira, dear.
I remember it was her favorite tree.
She put it on everything.
Now we know it was her map.
Let's go find the treasure!
-All right!
-Ooh! Gold treats!
Good luck, everyone.
We're on the case of the secret treasure.

What is all the commotion?
Some of us are trying to practice sitar.
Veer, we found
our great-grandmother's treasure map.
What? I've always wanted
to find that treasure.
It will be part of my legacy.
Why don't we all look for it together,
Prince Veer?
Aw, Mira,
I don't want to spoil your good time.
It'll be much faster
for me to look for it myself.
Uh, she is the Royal Detective.
Yes, but I happen to know every inch,
corner and crevice of this palace.
I just need to look at the map,
and I'll be on my way.
Suit yourself, Veer.
These pictures could be clues.
NEEL: The first picture looks like
the chest where you guys found the map.
So they are clues.
Which means our next clue is
black and white rectangles.
They look like piano keys to me.
Hey. I've heard there's a really old piano
down in the basement.
Well, to me, they look like chess pieces.
I'm going to check the chessboard
in the courtyard.
Last one to the treasure is a mushy mango!
We need to look at that piano.
Chalo, chalo. Let's go!
Neel, when was the last time
anyone came down here?
Eh It's been a while.
We mostly use it for storage.
I think the piano's in that room.
Whoa! Look at that tree.
MIKKU: Uh, who puts a tree in a basement?
-(RUMBLING)
-Uh, what was that?
Hey! What's the big idea?
I got you, buddy!
-Whoa! Knock it off, tree!
-Whoa! Hey! Whoa!
Hang on, guys. I got ya.
-(GASPS) Whoa!
-Oh!
Seriously, this tree is out of control!
(CHIKKU SCREAMING)
(GASPS)
(METAL CLANGS)
(CLANGING)
It's not a real tree.
It's made out of metal.
There are wires attached to the branches
that make them go up and down.
It's a trap!
I'll bet my great-grandmother made it.
I'm not sure how she made it do that,
but crispy samosas,
it's brilliant.
Neel, is there any way
you can get these branches to stop?
Uh, soon.
Oh, yeah. Sorry.
I just need to figure out how it works.
(GEARS CREAKING)
Ah-ha!
Now I just need something
that'll stop these gears.
Here, use my spool.
Oh, thanks, Neel.
Phew. Much better.
-(DOOR UNLOCKS)
-Look.
The tree made that door open.
Okay. Let's find that piano.
(GASPS) There it is.
VEER: Hello, everyone.
Veer, what are you doing here?
As it turns out,
there were no clues at the chessboard.
So does that mean you wanna look
for the treasure with us now?
Hmm. Tempting.
But if I can find the treasure first,
I get to keep it all for myself!
No clues? Okay, that was a waste of time.
Maybe we should try to play it.
(DISCORDANT KEYS PLAYING)
(SCOFFS) You call that playing?
Let me show you how it's done, Neel.
(CRACKS KNUCKLES)
-(DISCORDANT KEYS PLAYING)
-Mmm-hmm.
You were saying?
It's not my fault. The keys are stuck.
There's something between the keys.
It looks like a puzzle piece.
It has the same symbol that's on the map.
A banyan tree.
It could be a clue.
Do you think
that was making the piano keys stick?
There's only one way to find out.
-Chikku?
-Let's make some music!
-(CHIKKU GRUNTING)
-MIKKU: Off we go!
(MIKKU AND CHIKKU GRUNTING)
-Watch out!
-This isn't doing anything.
-Whoo!
-Is it my imagination
or is the floor creaking?
(ALL GASP)
-We have to save them.
-Let's slide!
(ALL SCREAMING)
(LAUGHS) Yes!
(SCREAMING CONTINUES)
(MIKKU AND CHIKKU SCREAMING)
Whoo! Well, we didn't save them,
but we found the treasure.
Uh, where's the treasure?
We're still looking for it, Chikku.
But we're making progress.
We've already been
to two places on the map.
The chest and the piano.
Let's figure out
what this next drawing means.
MIKKU: That is a mango slice.
No way. Coconut slice.
Now I'm just hungry.
Well, these things look like oars.
PRIYA: And these look like seats.
Definitely a banana.
I know what it is.
A boat.
Your great-grandmother must have
wanted us to row through the tunnel.
A boat! Yes.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
(GASPS) And it's right up there.
But how do we get it down?
Stand back. This will be easy.
(INHALES)
(GRUNTING)
I'm pretty sure
your great-grandmother
didn't make anything easy.
Guys, this looks like the puzzle piece
we found in the piano.
(BOAT THUDS)
If only we knew what it meant.
VEER: While you figure that out
-(ALL GASP)
-I'm going to find the treasure.
-See ya!
-ALL: Hey!
We do all the work and you take the boat?
Not cool.
Not cool!
There's no way he's beating us
to the treasure.
We need a boat.
There's gotta be
something around here we can use.
How about that piece of wood?
NEEL: That'll work.
VEER: Help! Somebody help!
That sounds like Veer.
I think he's in trouble.
We have to help him.
VEER: Over here!
NEEL: We're coming, Veer.
Are you okay?
I'm fine. I just got out of the boat
and tripped over a rock,
and suddenly, this thing pulled me up.
It's another trap.
Your great-grandmother
made finding the treasure
a real challenge.
And also a really good time.
Look at the mechanics of that thing.
When Veer tripped over this rock,
it moved that rope across those pulleys
and yanked him up and
Hello. Can you please help me down?
Neel, can you and Priya give me a boost?
NEEL: Sure thing.
PRIYA: No problem.
(GRUNTING)
Thanks for helping me.
I guess I didn't get very far on my own.
That's why we've been
working together, Prince Veer.
Well, enjoy finding the treasure.
I guess I'll be on my way.
Veer, why don't you join us?
Yeah. We could use an extra hand.
Yes!
Naturally, you need my help.
What are you waiting for?
Let's go find that treasure!
MIKKU: Oh, no! A dead end.
CHIKKU: Some treasure.
The only other drawing on the map
is of this stone wall
with a big triangle in the middle of it.
There's a triangle on that wall.
But what does it mean?
Maybe our great-grandmother
was playing a big joke on us.
No way. She made this map.
She wanted us to find the treasure.
I know she did.
Then why did she
make this seat so uncomfortable?
Ugh. Another silver piece.
Ooh! Let me take a look.
(GASPS) It's got a banyan tree on it.
Great job, Veer!
Well, you know, I'm like an eagle.
Thanks to my excellent eyesight,
I notice things that nobody else does.
So we have three silver pieces.
What now?
Hmm. Let's think this through.
Everywhere the map told us to go,
we found silver pieces.
Each one looks kind of
like a puzzle piece.
So what if we put them together
like a puzzle?
Huh. It's a triangle just like on the map.
Does anyone see a triangle anywhere else?
PRIYA: Right there!
MIRA: There!
VEER: It's the same shape!
That's genius.
I knew it.
Genius.
It looks like this might fit.
(RUMBLING)
ALL: Whoa!
-Amazing!
-VEER: Unbelievable!
-Incredible!
-CHIKKU: We did it.
ALL: Whoa!
This is the treasure?
A room?
Not just any room, Veer.
It's our great-grandmother's
invention workshop.
I've heard stories about it,
but I didn't think it was real.
Incredible.
Uh, look. Blueprints and wheels
and gears and And gadgets!
Neel, maybe this could be your workshop.
Yeah, you can make
even more inventions here.
That's a great idea!
The case of the secret treasure is closed.
Ooh, look what I found!
Hey, Neel, can you put an elevator
like this in my bedroom
so I don't have to take the stairs
to the kitchen?
Looks like you're going to be
very busy, Neel.
MIKKU AND CHIKKU: And so are we!
(BOTH WHOOPING)
