MIRA: The Great Diwali Mystery.
Papa, I love how Diwali takes place
on the darkest day of the year.
And we turn it into a festival of lights.
Exactly. These diyas are all ready
to be lit for tonight.
Ah-ha! Here's what I was looking for.
Mira, your mother painted
this diya for you.
I can't wait to see it lit up tonight
with all the others.
Is there anything more beautiful?
There is, beti. You!
Happy Diwali, Mira. (KISSES)
Happy Diwali, Papa.
Uh, Mira?
Chikku, they're having a moment.
Don't interrupt their moment.
Yes, Mikku and Chikku,
I do have sweets for you.
BOTH: Hooray!
It wouldn't be Diwali without laddoos.
Or lamps.
I'm adding extra oil
so the lamps will burn all night.
Uh-oh. No more oil.
It's okay, Papa.
The Queen gives every family
an extra bottle of oil for Diwali
as a gift, remember?
I can go into town and pick up ours.
I'm heading that way already.
I'm picking up a surprise gift for my dad.
BOTH: Ooh!
-See you later, Papa.
-Bye, Mira!

-(THUDS)
-Whoops.
-Sorry, Dhruv.
-BOTH: Sorry.
-That's okay.
-What's this?
Oh, that's part of a piano.
And this is bike gear.
I'm using all this stuff to make something
super special for Diwali.
Ooh, I can't wait to see it.
-Bye, Dhruv.
-Bye.
Mira, hello.
Your gift for your father is ready.
I'll get it as soon as I finish this.
No problem, Uncle.
I'll come back after I pick up my oil.
Wonderful.
Ooh, look, the royal carriage.
Prince Neel is here!
He's going to give away
the Diwali oil. Hi, Neel.
(WHISPERING) Mira,
this is my first royal duty.
Let's hope I don't mess it up.
-Neel
-ALL: You got this!
(CLEARS THROAT)
"On this darkest night of the year,
"we celebrate with light and love.
"We celebrate with, uh
"Extra oil for everyone."
From my mom. I mean, "The Queen."
(ALL CHEERING)
Thank you for your generosity,
Prince Neel.
(LAUGHS) Oh, it's nothing.
Uh, nothing at all?
Uh, excuse me for a moment, sir.
(WHISPERING) Psst, Mira,
we have a problem.
-What's wrong?
-The barrel is empty.
(LOUDLY) The barrel of oil is empty?
The barrel's empty! There's no oil!
(GASPS) Without oil
to light our lamps tonight,
it'll be too dark to see!
And too dark to open presents!
I can't perform my dance!
And I can't make my sweets!
-No sweets?
-(SOBBING) No!
(IN NORMAL VOICE) I'm so sorry, Neel.
I didn't mean to say that so loudly.
I'm the one who should be sorry.
My first royal duty,
and I completely messed it up.
You didn't mess it up.
We'll figure out what happened together.
-We'll figure it out.
-Oh, yeah, yeah.
-Listen up, everyone.
-The Royal Detective has something to say.
Friends and neighbors, please don't worry.
We will find the oil before dark.
We are on the case of the missing oil.

So, Neel, was the barrel of oil full
when it was delivered last night?
Yes, the royal guards made sure.
Do you think maybe there was a hole in it,
and the oil leaked out?
If the oil leaked out,
we'd see it all over the ground.
Looks dry to me.
-Hang on, I see a drop of oil.
-(HONK HONKING)
And another one.
So, little brother,
your first official royal duty,
and you messed it up.
Veer, the barrel was full last night
when I delivered it. I checked.
That's right, Prince Veer, I found a clue.
A trail of oil drops.
If we follow the trail,
we may figure out
what happened to the oil.
Thanks, Mira. But I'll take it from here.
Veer, Mira is the Royal Detective.
If anyone can find the oil, she can.
There's no need. I am Prince Veer,
and I will save Diwali.
-(HORN HONKS)
-(GROANS)
Nope, no oil under here.
Guards, we need to visit
every house and shop in town
to find that oil.
Let's follow the trail of oil drops
and see where they lead.
(HORN HONKING)
Looks like the trail
leads to the bike shop.
Look, there are more oil drops by the bin.
Huh, that means whoever took the oil
must have walked
from the oil stand to here.
This is where the drops end.
I wonder why.
Let's ask the bike twins.
Maybe they saw something.
(BELL DINGS)
Hey, Mira.
Manjeet, I have some questions.
Is it about a new bike?
'Cause we're having a huge Diwali sale.
Actually, we're on a case.
We're looking for the Diwali oil.
Are you talking about
the oil from the Queen?
I heard it's missing.
It is, and the oil drops lead here.
That's our recycling bin.
We toss in any parts we don't need.
Yeah, like bike seats, pedals, gears.
Interesting, have you seen
anyone near the bin lately?
Yes, someone took a bunch of old parts
in the last day or so.
I know, because the bin
used to be filled to the top.
-Who do you think it was?
-Don't know.
But you're totally welcome to look around.
No, no, no.
Chikku and I will check out the bin.
Make sure there's no oil thief inside.
Ready, set, oof!
-(CLATTERING)
-(HORN HONKS)
CHIKKU: Ow.
Nope, no oil thief.
-You're welcome.
-Fingerprints.
Oily fingerprints.
Huh, I wonder who they belong to.
Ooh, look. More stuff.
Check this out.
-(XYLOPHONE PLAYS)
-(HUMMING)
This is no time to fool around, Chikku.
May I see that?
Hmm, piano parts! That's it!
BOTH: Huh?
This morning, I ran into Dhruv.
He had bike gears and piano parts.
He said, "I'm using all this stuff
"to make something
super special for Diwali."
Maybe he came here, got some bike gears,
and accidentally dropped
some of his piano parts.
If he had the oil,
he would have left oily fingerprints,
like those.
So you think Dhruv took the oil?
I don't know for sure,
but we need to go talk to him.
-This is Dhruv's house.
-(HORN HONKING)
Check it out, bottles of oil.
-Guards, this way!
-Uh, what's he doing here?
I found the missing oil.
Actually, Veer,
Mira found the missing oil.
Okay, fine. My way was taking too long
so I followed you.
Anyway, it's right here.
-Dhruv is the oil thief.
-(ALL GASP)
Prince Veer, we shouldn't accuse Dhruv
before we know the whole story.
Please let me talk to him.
Fine.
-Hey, Dhruv.
-Mira, hi.
-(OUT-OF-TUNE PIANO PLAYING)
-What are you doing?
I'm testing out the Diwali gift
I made for my mom.
She loves music,
so I invented a bike-powered piano.
Are you using oil from the Queen?
Yeah, I'm so glad
she gave us all this free oil.
I don't know what I'd do without it.
Dhruv, that's such a sweet gift.
But that oil was for everyone in town.
And we can't light our diyas
tonight without it.
What? I'm so sorry, Mira!
I had no idea. I can give it all back.
-Is it too late?
-Don't worry, Dhruv.
We can still get the oil out in time.
-MAN 1: Where's our oil?
-I don't know.
MAN 2: I hope they find it soon.
Hey, everyone.
I'm really, really sorry
for taking the oil.
I didn't realize
it was for the whole town.
I just wanted to make my mom happy
with music on Diwali.
But now, nobody has oil,
and my invention isn't even working.
It's okay, Dhruv. We know you didn't mean
to take anyone's oil.
Would you like me
to take a look at your invention?
(GASPS) Are you kidding me, Prince Neel?
You're the greatest inventor
in the whole kingdom!
Dhruv, I think this is the beginning of
a beautiful friendship.
Mira, I thought I could save Diwali
all by myself, but
Diwali hasn't been saved yet, Veer.
We still need to deliver all of this oil,
and it's almost dark.
So, naturally, you need my help.
Guards, let's load up the carriage
so we can deliver oil to everyone.
-(ALL CHEERING)
-Thank you.
Happy Diwali, everyone.
-You get oil, you get oil.
-Thank you.
-Thank you, thank you.
-Thank you.
I love all of you.
Ah, I see the problem.
Here, now test it out.
-(PIANO TUNE PLAYS)
-(DHRUV CHUCKLES)
I can't believe it, you got it to work!
And you don't need more oil.
Dhruv, what is this?
Happy Diwali, Mom. This is for you.
Oh, Dhruv. What a beautiful gift.
(GASPS) Oh, no. I forgot my dad's gift.
(GASPS) The potter shop is closed.
What am I going to do?
-MIKKU: Meera, look!
-Your dad's gift.
Oh.
That's wonderful.
POTTER: Happy Diwali, Mira.
Thank you so much, Uncle.
Happy Diwali.
I noticed that your metal cup
gets warm when you're out in the sun,
so I had the potter make a clay cup.
Now your water will stay cool,
just the way you like it.
Oh, so thoughtful, Mira. Thank you.
And this is for you.
I had Priya make a picture of us
and turn it into a puzzle,
because I know how much you love puzzles.
And how much you love your family.
It's wonderful, Papa. Thank you.
BOTH: Happy Diwali.
(FIREWORKS BURSTING)
MIRA: The Case of the Curious Creature.
NEEL: Mira, check out my new invention.
I call it
the Super Sound Direction Detector.
It helps you hear sounds
that are far away.
Okay, and what does this arrow do, Neel?
It points in the direction
of the sound. Whoa!
I should probably tighten that.
-BOTH: Hiya, Mira.
-(EXCLAIMS)
It definitely works.
Hey, Mikku and Chikku.
Check out Neel's amazing new invention.
It lets you hear things that are far away.
Really? 'Cause I don't hear anything.
(CHILD YELLING)
Uh, what's that?
Hmm, your stomach?
-No, not this time.
-(CHILD ROARING)
It sounds like a dangerous animal.
The arrow is pointing to the chai stand,
but I don't see anything dangerous.
-(ROARING)
-Nope, it's just Dhruv.
(EXCLAIMS)
-Come on. Let's go see what he's up to.
-Whoo!
What's going on, guys?
Mira, Dhruv saw Chop Chop.
"Chop Chop," why do I know that name?
It's the name of the giant creature
from this book.
Oh, yeah. Legends of Jalpur.
My dad used to read that to me
at bed time.
-Me, too.
-Oh, yeah. We read that, too.
Chop Chop? Doesn't he take people's shoes?
(GULPS) And swallows them up in one gulp?
Oh, yeah. And he swallowed Dhruv's shoe.
In one ginormous gulp.
Really? How'd that happen, Dhruv?
I'll show you.
I was walking by the cave,
just minding my own business,
when Chop Chop jumped out at me!
-Like this. (ROARS)
-(ALL GASP)
Chop Chop ate one of my shoes.
Oh, yes, he did.
But I ran away
before he could eat the other.
Dhruv, everyone knows
Chop Chop isn't real.
Are you sure it was Chop Chop?
Oh, I'm sure, all right.
'Cause I saw everything
that's in this book.
-His scales were really slimy.
-(GASPS)
His feet were as big as rickshaw wheels.
-Really?
-And he had a scary growl.
-(ROARS)
-(ALL GASP)
Hey, Dhruv,
what's that yellow stuff on your foot?
That? Um
That's, uh That's Chop Chop's slime.
-(BOTH SCREAMING)
-Ew.
Well, see you around.
I gotta go spread the word,
so everyone knows not to go near the cave.
Hey, Dhruv, can I borrow that book?
Sure, Mira.
Just don't read it before bed time.
The worst part is we get our mangoes
from the trees by the cave.
But because of Chop Chop,
we can't go there anymore.
And with no mangoes,
our dad can't make our favorite drink.
Mango lassi. (SLURPS)
-No!
-Not the mango lassi!
You won't let Chop Chop
take my new shoes, right, Mira?
They have sparklies on them.
I promise, Dimple.
I will keep your sparkly shoes safe, okay?
Okay. Thank you, Mira!
ALL: Bye!
Well, it looks like we have a new case.
You don't really believe
Dhruv saw Chop Chop, do you, Mira?
It's just an old, made-up story.
Made-up or not, Priya,
I don't want Dimple or anyone else
to worry about their shoes.
Or their mango lassis.
We need to find out
if Chop Chop is real or not.
We're on the case
of the shoe-snatching creature.

All right, everyone.
Let's head to the caves.
Neel, you're coming, right?
I would absolutely, totally come
if I didn't have very extremely
important royal business to attend to.
I need to, um
Invent something?
Prince Neel, why are you barefoot?
(SIGHS) Because I was hiding my shoes
in case Chop Chop really is out there.
(BOTH GASP)
When I was three,
I heard that story and it scared me.
The truth is, it still does.
Neel, we need you.
Your new invention can help us
track down sounds that might be Chop Chop.
It can? Yes, it can.
Okay, Mira. I'm in.
Soggy samosas!
Hello!
(VOICE ECHOES) Hello! Hello!
Anyone here?
Hello, anyone here?
No answer. Wow, great. Let's go home.
Remember, Chikku. Mango lassi.
Chikku, I promise you
you're going to be fine.
All right, we're going in.
Everybody, watch your step.
Let's all look around and see
if we can find any signs of Chop Chop.
Neel, are you picking up any sounds?
Nope, not yet.
Whoa! (GRUNTS) Chop Chop's bed.
I fell into Chop Chop's bed!
It can't be a bed. If it was a bed,
there would be fluffy pillows.
I see no fluffy pillows.
Oh, right.
Chikku, it can't be Chop Chop's bed,
because Chop Chop doesn't exist.
It's just a ditch.
Actually, it may be
more than just a ditch.
It kind of looks like a footprint.
I don't like the sound of that.
Come on, guys. You don't really believe
this is Chop Chop's footprint, do you?
Hang on, there's another one.
I really don't like the sound of that.
Is it me, or do those footprints
kind of look as big as rickshaw wheels?
Let's check the book.
Well, it definitely
looks like the picture.
Hmm, there's something in the footprint.
It's the same yellow stuff
that was on the bottom of Dhruv's foot.
It's Chop Chop's slime!
(CREATURE ROARING)
What was that? (GASPS)
Whoa, whoa, whoa. (GRUNTS)
(GRUNTS)
(GASPS) More Chop Chop slime!
Neel, are you okay?
If, by okay, you mean stuck in a dark,
slimy pit with no way out,
then, yes, never better.
Grab my hand, we'll pull you up.
Mira, I gotcha.
BOTH: Whoa!
PRIYA: I don't gotcha.
-We'll save you.
-Not to worry.
(BOTH EXCLAIMING)
-(GRUNTS) Yeah!
-Yeah!
We did it.
Actually, it kinda looks
like we're in the pit, too.
Whoopsies.
The walls don't look that steep.
We can just climb out.
(GRUNTS)
Oh! (GROANS)
(GRUNTS) Oh!
(SLIDING DOWN)
Okay, maybe we're stuck.
(SIGHS) Sorry, everyone.
Getting stuck at the bottom of a pit
was definitely not part of my plan.
Was a mango peel part of your plan?
What's a mango peel doing here?
I can't really talk
about food right now, Mira.
-Shocking, I know.
-MIRA: Hmm.
There are mango peels all over the place.
Maybe it wasn't Chop Chop's slime
we slipped on.
Maybe it was all these mango peels.
Speaking of food,
Chop Chop left behind a snack.
Let's keep that. It could be a clue.
(CREATURE ROARING)
Uh, guys, do you hear that?
Loud and clear. Too loud and clear.
I hate to say it,
but what if Chop Chop is real?
How are we getting out of here?
I have an idea.
We can use this part of my invention,
toss it up there
(GRUNTS) And climb right out.
-Oh, he's smart.
-He's a genius.
Give it a go, Priya.
(GRUNTS)
Ah! (GROANS)
-(GRUNTS)
-Mira, you coming?
Thanks, Neel.
(BOTH GRUNTING)
This shoe looks familiar.
Where have I seen it before?
I know, this morning.
Dhruv was wearing it on one foot.
Priya, you're right.
How did you remember that?
When it comes to fashion, I know my stuff.
Let's think this through.
Dhruv was only wearing
one shoe before, and he said
DHRUV: Chop Chop ate one of my shoes.
Oh, yes, he did.
But I ran away
before he could eat the other.
MIRA: But we found the other shoe,
which means that Chop Chop didn't eat it.
And the stuff
on the bottom of Dhruv's foot,
that he said was slime, was really mango.
This all means
that Dhruv wasn't telling the truth.
-Chop Chop isn't real!
-(CREATURE ROARING)
(GASPS) That sounds real.
-MIKKU: And that looks real.
-(ALL SCREAMING)
-(ROARING)
-PRIYA: Let's get out of here!
-MIRA: Hmm.
-(ROARING CONTINUES)
Mira, you're going the wrong way.
I have a few questions.
-(ROARING)
-For Chop Chop?
No, for Dhruv.
-(ROARING)
-(CLEARS THROAT)
-(ROARING STOPS)
-Hi, Dhruv.
Oh, hi.
ALL: Dhruv?
Dhruv, is this your shoe?
Hey, you found it. (CHUCKLES)
Dhruv, were you pretending
to be Chop Chop?
(SIGHS) Yes, yes, I was.
Wait a second. So there's no Chop Chop?
There's only Dhruv?
(SIGHS) I feel so much better.
Wait, why'd you do that, Dhruv?
Because I wanted
all the mangoes to myself.
Which is why there's so many
mango peels around.
(GASPS) Did you eat them all?
Not all.
I didn't eat these yet.
You wanted us all to think
Chop Chop was real
so we'd be scared away from the cave
and you'd get all the mangoes.
(SIGHS) I know. It was wrong.
But I just love mangoes so much,
and the mango tree by the cave
has the juiciest, tastiest,
yummiest, most delicious
I guess I got a little greedy.
More like a lot greedy.
Guys, who's being greedy now?
-Uh (CHUCKLES)
-BOTH: Mango?
Seriously?
I'm really sorry.
I'll bring the rest of the mangoes
back to town.
I know everyone
will appreciate that, Dhruv.
Looks like the case of
the shoe-snatching creature is closed.
-That's right! So closed.
-Yes!
And I know the perfect place to celebrate.
To Mira, for solving the case.
And to the best and bravest team
a detective could ever have.
(ALL SLURPING)
Uh, I was so brave.
(GRUNTS) All right.
This is the last of 'em.
Dhruv, now that you're done,
why don't you join us for a mango lassi?
Thanks, but I'll pass.
I ate so many mangoes
(GROANS) I have a belly ache.
Thanks for saving my sparkly shoes, Mira.
And for saving our mangoes.
You are so welcome.
(SLURPING)
-(STOMACH GROWLS)
-Everyone, I hear a growling noise.
And it is not my stomach.
(STOMACH GROWLS)
Oh, wait. It's my stomach.
(BOTH LAUGHING)
(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
