Hey!
Everybody knows I love
A mystery, big or small

I help my friends
There's nothing
She can't solve
Finding clues is what I do
So the Queen appointed you
Now my job's a dream come true

We'll take in the world
With a whole new perspective
Our small and mighty hero
We'll find the answers
Let's go
Let's hear it for Mira
Royal Detective ♪
MIRA: Mystery through
the front window.
I can't believe I hurt my ankle.
No need to be upset, beti.
Why? When I was your age,
I sprained my wrist,
broke my nose, and pulled my hamstring.
Oh, wait. That was just last year.
There you go.
Does it hurt?
Yes. Ow.
I was talking to Mira.
(LAUGHING) You guys.
Don't even think about getting up,
young lady.
The doctor said you need
to rest until it heals, and
I know. Stay in the apartment.
That's my girl.
You'll be better just in time
to enjoy the new slide at the playground.
BOTH: A new slide?
Oh, all right.
I'll let you all in on a little secret.
Queen Shanti arranged
for this new slide to be built.
The parts are going to be
delivered today, by boat.
Incredible!
A masterpiece!
I can't wait to go on it!
Rest up, beti,
and you'll be sliding in no time.
Mikku, Chikku,
make sure Mira
has everything she needs.
BOTH: Uncle, we got this.
Bye, Papa.
Bye!
Mira, how about another pillow?
Ooh, I'll get it.
-I got it.
-No, I got it.
-Aah!
-Yikes!
Thanks guys, but a hurt ankle
won't stop me
from doing things for myself.
And with my Grapple Grabber,
it's no problem.
Ah, much better.
-(DOOR OPENS)
-NEEL: Knock, knock.
How's the patient?
Not bad, Neel.
The hardest part
is being stuck in here all day.
Well, I have just the present for you.
Ooh! What is it?
BOTH: Wow!
Mongoose hats!
Prince Neel, you shouldn't have.
Actually, it's my brand new invention.
I call it "The Walk and Talker."
It'll let you talk to people
without leaving your apartment!
Wow, let's try it out!
-(NEEL SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY)
-Yes, I do like mangoes.
Oops. That's not what I said.
Let's try that again.
Can you hear me now?
Yes, I can hear you.
Great! Now, you never
have to be far from the action.
I can talk to you when I'm far away.
I love it.
-Thanks, Neel.
-PRIYA: Hi, Mira.
Priya! Hi!
Poha and fruit delivery
courtesy of my mom!
Excellent.
Just what the doctor ordered.
I also brought another visitor.
Arvind.
He says he has
some very important business with you.
Royal Detective Mira! Your ankle!
It's no big deal, Arvind.
What can I do for you?
Um, there's a problem on the river.
My dad is one of the water taxi drivers,
and I'm helping him out today.
Oh, what's the problem?
There's something large and green
blocking all the water taxis.
But with this fog,
we can't see what it is.
It is foggy.
Hang on. I think I can see it.
Don't worry, Arvind,
we'll figure this out.
We're on the case!
Whoa! Whoa! Wait a second!
Mira, you can't go on the case.
Not with a hurt ankle.
It's no problem, Priya.
With Neel's Walk and Talker
and my Grapple Grabber,
I can do all my investigating
without moving an inch.
Phew. I thought we were gonna have to
call in reinforcements.
Also, I have you guys.
The best team
a Royal Detective could hope for.
Let's take it from the top.
We're on the case!
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 ♪
Neel, can you take your aquarickshaw
out on the river?
We need to get a closer look.
Absolutely.
I'll bring my rope pulley, too.
Whatever's out there,
I can pull from the water.
Into the fog we go!
Thanks, guys. I'll put this here.
You hold onto the other end.
Priya and I will guide you
from the window.
-Perfect.
-Let's do this.
CHIKKU: Yes, people.
Everybody, wave to Mira.
NEEL: Can you see us?
Yeah. Looking good out there.
It is really hard to see in this fog.
Your Highness,
I will remain on high alert.
(BIRD CHIRPING)
(YELPS)
You're safe now, Prince Neel.
Thanks, Ram Singh Ji.
Mira, any sign of the object
from up there?
MIRA: Hang on, Neel.
I think it moved.
I have to find it again.
Priya, let me get you
some binoculars
so you can look, too.
Great! That'll help.
I see it.
Oh, yeah, me too.
Neel, it's downstream a hundred yards.
On your right.
Got it, Mira.
(THUDDING)
We're under attack.
Prince Neel, get behind me!
Ram Singh Ji, we're just stuck!
Mira, I think we're caught on something.
Can Mikku and Chikku investigate?
-Uh-uh.
-Not happening.
Really, guys?
-Fine!
-But you owe us!
See anything?
Nope. Nothing here.
I don't see anything.
Oh wait, I see something.
MIKKU: What is it?
There's some sort of wood carving
caught on the paddles.
What's a wood carving
doing in the river?
Good question.
It could be a clue.
Mikku, Chikku, can you get it out?
No problem.
Our mongoose muscles got this.
(BOTH STRAINING)
(BOTH GROANING)
Our mongoose muscles don't got this.
PRIYA: It looks like it's really suck.
I have an idea.
-Wow!
-I did not see that coming.
-Nice aim, Mira.
-Thanks.
Neel, hook the grabber
onto the wood carving.
Then we'll pull you free.
Got it.
Guys, here's the hook.
Okay.
We'll hook it under here.
No, no, hook it under here.
Mongooses, stand back.
This is a job for a trained guard.
-All hooked up
-And ready for take-off, Captain!
Neel, if you pedal forward,
we'll pull back the Grapple Grabber.
Let's do this!
(PANTING)
(BOTH STRAINING)
(PANTING)
Yes! It worked!
Great job, guys. Can you bring it in?
Reeling it in now.
Well, what is it?
Looks like part
of an old ship.
I'd say it looks kinda
like the back of a chair.
CHIKKU: You're both wrong.
It's a new game.
You're right! Catch me! Catch me!
Neel, Priya, can you hold it up for me?
It looks like a ladder.
A ladder? Boring!
And anyway, why would a ladder
be floating in the river?
I don't know, Mikku.
But the bigger question is,
how is it connected
to the mysterious object
that's stopping all the water taxis?
You got me. How?
We need to find out.
Neel, can you go back out there?
Sure! Now that the rickshaw isn't jammed,
we can get closer to the object.
Come on, guys.
-Back to the water.
-Let's go!
We're ready for you, Mira.
Great.
Go a little to the left.
Okay. Now go forward.
-NEEL: I see it.
-Well, what does it look like?
Um, it's dark green,
spiral, and big.
Like really big.
Really, really big.
I believe it looks likea snake.
CHIKKU: It's a snake.
It's definitely, 100%
A giant snake!
A giant snake that's bigger
than a water taxi?
Priya, that doesn't make sense, does it?
Not at all.
-(DOOR OPENS)
-ARVIND: Knock, knock.
Come in.
Excuse me. Royal Detective!
We found something else in the river.
-Another object?
-Thanks, Arvind.
Let's take a look.
Huh. Interesting.
A piece of wood shaped like a flower.
Wait. I've seen this before.
But where?
Let's think this through.
First, a piece of wood got stuck
under Neil's aqua rickshaw.
It was shaped like a ladder.
Then Arvind found
a piece of wood
shaped like a flower.
We saw both of those things before
on the drawing of the slide.
So the big, green spiral shape
must be part of the slide, too.
Then it's not a snake.
NEEL: Mira, the snake is getting closer.
Guys, relax. It's not a (GASPS).
-Oh, no!
-NEEL: Mira?
Come in, Mira.
Uh-oh.
What do we do?
The snake's right there!
Swim for your life!
A snake is no match for a true warrior.
We have to find some way
to communicate with them.
I know! We can use that phonograph.
I'm on it.
Guys.
Neel, Mikku, Chikku, Ram Singh Ji.
It's not a snake.
It's the new slide for the playground!
I repeat, it's not a snake.
It's just a slide?
Huh! I see it now.
I was just getting ready
to show that snake who's boss.
Thanks, Mira.
MIRA: Of course, Neel.
Come on, guys. Let's reel it in.
I told you it wasn't a snake.
MIKKU: No, no, that's what
I told you, Chikku.
Well, the important thing is
we were both right.
Oh, yes. That is how it's done.
It's a good thing I was here.
NEEL: You were right, Mira.
It is the slide.
MIRA: I'm so glad.
Beta, it was a great idea to ask
the Royal Detective for help.
Thanks, Papa.
Oh, you found the slide.
I was so worried.
Hello, Uncle! Were you transporting it?
Yes. I was on my way to Jalpur
to deliver the parts to the Queen.
But I got lost in the fog.
I hit the riverbank
and the pieces of the slide
fell off my raft and into the water.
I thought I would never find them.
She's the Royal Detective.
She can figure out anything!
Without even leaving her apartment!
MIRA: I couldn't have done it
without my team!
Team Royal Detective!
Always ready for action.
(CHILDREN GIGGLING)
-Ready to slide?
-Ready.
-Whee!
-Whoo-hoo!
-Wanna go again?
-Oh, yeah.
Resting my ankle was so worth it.
Look out below!
Whee!
You didn't see me coming, did you?
(ALL LAUGHING)
MIKKU AND CHIKKU: Mongoose pile!
MIRA: The case of the fake painting.
I'm so excited for the official tour
of the palace.
I know. Me too.
There's so much history here.
I bet there's some amazing history
in the Royal kitchen.
Yeah. Just years and years of
shahi jalebis, ladoos
Poha, samosas
(STRAINING) Aw!
I can't wait to see
the painting of Chetak.
What kind of snack is Chetak?
It's not a snack, Mikku.
Chetak was a horse.
I'll show you
what the painting looks like.
It's in my art book.
MIRA: Chetak was the legendary horse
of Maharana Pratap.
He used to wear an elephant mask, see?
PRIYA: This painting is really special.
Queen Shanti has the real one
on display just for today.
That's right! One day only.
A paintingof a horse.
Gather around, everyone!
We're starting the tour.
Let me just check my map here
You don't need that,
because we know everything
about the palace, remember?
Yes. Yes. Right this way.
Ooh, a souvenir.
Now we'll never forget this day.
Please follow me into this, uh
hall.
We're walking. We're walking.
Don't straggle.
And we're stopping.
Excuse me, tour guides.
The Great Hall is that way.
Uh, yes, yes. We know
this palace very well.
Like the back of our heads.
That way, everyone.
They don't seem to know the palace at all.
Tell me about it!
We are truly the best guides
this palace has ever had.
Because we know it all.
We are a world of information
We wrote the book
On the palace halls
Now that you're here
Congratulations
We've got the answers
We know it all
I've never seen them before.
Have you?
These are the most exotic flowers
They come from a land
Far beyond our walls
They bring those everyday from the garden.
We've got the answers
We know it all
Well as a matter of fact
I'd be curious to know
The staircase!
The first of its kind
And circles 27 stories high
MIRA: It's only four stories.
This clever addition
A marvelous system!
Connects to the kitchen
With one vital mission
To take royal room service orders!
BOTH: Now we know that's not true.
I know, it's Neel's tube talker.
The ceiling was painted with one feather
This statue attends every royal ball
Uh, that's not a statute.
That's Ram Singh Ji.
We've got the answers
We know it all
You know, we know it all! ♪
MANISH: Oh, look who we have here!
May we present His Highness,
Crown Prince Veer,
the future king of Jalpur.
Hello, everyone.
Indeed it is I, Prince Veer.
I'm so thrilled to welcome you
to the palace today
on behalf of my mother, Queen Shanti.
Look, a real life royal!
(CHUCKLES) Yes, I am.
And I am very excited to show you
the painting of Chetak the horse
at the end of the tour.
(CHILDREN CHEERING)
Oh, all in good time.
Come this way, everyone.
Psst! Mira, Priya!
BOTH: Hi, Prince Veer!
How about a sneak peek of the painting?
That would be amazing.
I can't believe I'm really gonna see it!
This way.
And here it is.
ALL: Wow!
Isn't it just magnificent?
Yes, the brush strokes are masterful.
And that horse looks like
he could use a snack.
Uh, Veer, there's something
different about this painting.
Mira, everything is different about it.
That's what makes it so special
and so very valuable.
Priya, can I see the painting
you showed us in your art book?
Sure, Mira.
In the book, Chetak only has one tail,
but in this painting, he has two.
-You're right.
-What does that mean?
It means this is not
the real painting of Chetak.
It's a fake.
-(BOTH GASPING)
-What?
This can't be happening!
Don't worry, Veer.
We'll find the real painting
before the tour ends.
We're on the case!
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 ♪
Interesting.
See that? There's a drip of gold paint.
That's not in the real painting.
We need to get a closer look.
Whoops.
Chikku, please be careful.
Good thing this isn't
the real painting, am I right?
Chikku, what's that on your paw?
Uh, breakfast?
MIRA: No, it's gold paint.
It looks like
the fake painting is still wet.
It must have just been painted.
I wonder if someone made
this fake painting,
put it here, and took the real one.
-Who would do that?
-I don't know.
Veer, where was the last place you saw
the real painting?
In the storage room.
Let's go look for clues there.
Come on.
Hello.
Hello. Enjoying the tour?
Yes. It's wonderful, Your Highness.
We're really looking forward
to seeing the painting of Chetak.
Don't worry, Uncle.
You'll see it soon.
-You're going to love it.
-Incredible horse.
With two tails.
Well, I'm off to do some,
uh, royal things. Bye!
So the real painting of Chetak
was hanging here?
Yes, right on this wall.
And we had it moved up to the library
for the tour this morning.
Hmm. Let's take a closer look
and see if we can find any clues.
More clues?
How long is this going to take Mira?
Veer, why don't you go back
and oversee the tour
while we look for the painting?
Oversee, yes.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
I'll do that.
Hmm. There's more gold paint here.
And it's still wet.
Chikku, hold up your paw.
I'd love to.
Priya, check it out.
(GASPS) It's the same gold paint
that was on the fake painting!
Look! There's a trail of the gold paint.
Let's follow it.
(CHIKKU AND MIKKU EXCLAIM)
Prince Veer is everywhere!
And he's watching us.
Guys, those are just statues.
Come on. We need to
keep following the trail.
It's a dead end.
Maybe not.
Looks like someone
left their paint back here.
And it's gold.
This must be the same paint
that was used to make the fake painting.
And the brush is still wet.
So whoever made the fake painting
must have done it here.
But where is the real painting?
I hope you guys are being careful.
There are some valuable
art pieces stored here,
especially these very precious statues.
We're being very careful.
Whoa! (CHUCKLES) Whoopsies.
Veer, could you please
stall the tour a little longer
while we search for the painting?
Of course. I'm excellent at stalling.
We need to search the palace.
Mira, the palace is huge.
Where do we even start?
Mira, Priya, we got this.
Checking the map,
it looks like we are here.
No, Mikku. We are here.
Which means we need to go
BOTH: Here.
Guys, can I see that map for a second?
See it? You can keep it.
Yeah, it doesn't work.
MIRA: There's gold paint on it.
Just like on the fake painting.
Mikku, Chikku, where did you get this map?
One of the tour guides dropped it.
I think I know what happened.
Let's think this through.
This map has gold paint on.
The same gold paint
that was used to make the fake painting.
The map came from the tour guides.
What if the tour guides
made the fake painting
and switched it with the real painting
before the tour started?
So you think the tour guides
took the painting?
We need to talk to them.
Chalo, chalo! Let's go!
Here you go, an autograph
from a real Jalpur royal.
Thank you, Prince Veer.
Veer, may I talk to you for a second?
Of course, Mira.
Please tell me you found the painting.
I cannot keep giving autographs.
Actually, I can,
but I'm running out of ink.
I think the tour guides
might know where it is.
-Have you seen them?
-Yes, they were just here.
Let's split up and look for them.
They must be around here somewhere.
Where did they go?
Wait a second.
Excuse me, Tour guide.
I need to talk to you.
(SNEEZING)
You know I can see you, right?
Whoa!
Sorry, can't talk right now!
I have to get back to the tour.
Stop! I need ask you some questions.
That's one of the tour guides.
-Come on.
-PRIYA: Right behind you.
All right, Chikku, we know this kitchen
like the back of our paws.
Let's find those snacks.
Focus, Chikku. Focus.
We're looking for the tour guides.
I don't see the tour guides.
But I found a painting of Chetak.
Aw, and it only has one tail.
Chikku! That means it's the real painting.
But we need to find those tour guides.
Um It's moving.
Paintings don't move, Chikku.
Mikku, Chikku, have you
seen the tour guides?
No, but we found the painting.
And it's walking away.
Walking away?
No, actually, now it's running away.
We have to stop them!
Veer! The tour guides have the painting.
They're headed into the library.
I order you to stop!
Stop right there.
Hey, it's those bandits again.
They're not real tour guides.
Or good ones.
They're even worse painters.
That is a matter of opinion.
So you were just pretending
to be tour guides
so you could steal the real painting.
Of course.
It's the most valuable painting
in all of Jalpur.
We were going to sell it,
and become very rich.
-Not on Mira's watch.
-(DOOR OPENS)
-(MOOING)
-Deputy Oosha, take them away.
(MOOING)
Good luck finding new tour guides.
No one knows this palace
better than us.
Ah! My nose.
That's case closed.
So closed.
Mira, thank you for finding the painting.
You're welcome, Veer.
And now I believe
we have one last stop on our tour.
Honored guests,
may I present to you
the painting of Chetak,
the most noble horse.
ALL: Ooh! Ah!
It's a masterpiece.
It's amazing.
Truly magnificent.
To be honest, I miss the second tail.
Much better.
