(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
Let's hear it for Mira
Royal Detective
Mira, Mira, Mira
Mira, Mira, Mira
Hey!
Everybody knows I love
A mystery, big or small
I look close and then
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
I'm Mira
Royal Detective
Let's hear it for Mira
Royal Detective
Mira, Mira, Mira
Mira, Mira, Mira
Hey!
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: The case of the runaway tabla.
Mira, why do you think
the Queen asked to see you today?
I bet she wants to thank you
for being the greatest
Royal Detective of all time.
And us, for being the greatest
helpers of all time.
She didn't tell me.
All she said was to bring my tabla.
So it must have
-something to do with music.
-(INDISTINCT GRATING)
Chikku, are you seeing what I'm seeing?
A dessert cart moving by itself!
I don't believe it!
NEEL: Oh, believe it!
Hi, Neel, is this a new invention?
It sure is, Mira.
I call it the self-driving dessert cart.
One note, Prince Neel,
it needs to drive in this direction.
It also needs seats.
Mongoose-sized, please.
How does it work?
All you have to do is turn this crank,
and the cart moves.
ALL: Whoa!
Soggy samosas!
Looks like I need to figure out
how to make it go straight.
Good luck, Neel! See you later!
(MAN VOCALIZING)
(TABLA PLAYING)
That's Zakir-ji.
Wow, he's magnificent.
Who is he?
The greatest tabla player in the world!
I've always wanted to meet him.
Mira, thank you for coming, my dear.
MIRA: Of course, Your Majesty.
I'd like to introduce you
to someone very special.
Oh, Zakir-ji! I know who you are,
and it's such an honor to meet you.
I saw you play tabla at a concert
my father took me to
when I was six years old,
and it was so amazing
that it made me want to play tabla!
Ah. Wonderful, Mira. Wonderful.
Ustad Zakir Sahib
will be giving a special recital
at the palace this evening.
-Oh, wow!
-Amazing!
We are so there!
Zakir Sahib, might we get a peek
of your special tabla?
We've all heard so much about it.
Of course, Your Majesty.
It would be my pleasure.
What's so special about his tabla?
It's been in his family
for a very long time.
His father played it,
and so did his father's father.
That's a lot of fathers.
Ooh.
-Wow.
-Amazing!
You know, Chikku, it's like
this dessert cart came just for us.
So true, Mikku. So true.
Mira, here, is one of the best
young tabla players in Jalpur.
Yes, I've heard that.
Maybe we should help out Prince Neel
and crank it up for him.
I bet he would like that.
It'll save him some arm movements.
(BOTH GRUNTING)
Mira, I wanted to ask you.
Would you play tabla with me
here on stage tonight?
-Really?
-That's a yes.
Actually, it's an "I'd love to!"
Thank you for asking me.
It would be an honor, guru-ji.
Wonderful, Mira. Wonderful.
Oh, I can't wait!
Now, Mira, I'm going to teach you
something for our performance tonight.
It goes like this.
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
Dhadhin-dhadhin-takatakataka
Takatakatakataka
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
Dhadhin-dhadhin-takatakataka
Takatakatakataka
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
Dhadhin-dhadhin-takatakataka
Takatakatakataka
That's right, Mira.
Now the best way to remember it
is to keep saying it out loud.
Oh, don't worry,
we'll help Mira remember it.
Yes, we have excellent memories.
-What day is it today?
-It's, uh, Monday.
Wait a minute, no, wait.
It's I don't remember.
I'll make sure
to have it all ready, Zakir-ji.
Wonderful. Mira, I'll meet you
by the stage later on.
I'm going to give my fingers
a little break.
(GASPS) My tabla! Where is it?
-Oh, dear!
-What?
-That's bad.
-Oh, no!
My tabla is one of a kind!
It cannot be replaced.
Oh, goodness. Don't worry,
Mira, here, is our Royal Detective,
and I'm sure she can find it.
That's right, Zakir-ji,
we'll stop at nothing to find your tabla.
We are on the case!
(SINGING) 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
-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
Okay, Zakir-ji,
tell me exactly what happened
when you last saw your tabla.
Well, I put it down on a cart right here,
but now the cart's gone, too.
I think I know what happened.
-That was quick.
-She's good and fast.
Prince Neel invented a cart
that moves by itself.
You must have put your tabla on top of it,
and the cart must have rolled away
with the tabla on it.
-Oh, no!
-But don't worry.
That means Neel can help find it.
We'll go look for it.
Oh, Mira, thank you so much.
Please rest assured, Zakir Sahib,
your tabla will be found safe and sound.
Good luck, Mira.
Thank you, Queen Shanti.
We'll be back soon With the tabla.
Chikku, this is our fault!
Right, because we're the ones
who cranked up the cart!
-Neel, where's your cart?
-I sent it into the palace to test it out.
We think Zakir-ji put his tabla
on top of it, and then it rolled away.
Oh, no! Well, luckily
it'll be easy to find.
The cart will slow down soon
'cause I only turned the crank once.
Um
Prince Neel.
What would happen if someone
were to turn the crank,
say, five times?
Or maybe, say, 25 times?
Oh, then the cart would keep moving
for a really long time.
(CHUCKLES) I mean, hours.
But nobody did that. Did they?
We did.
We turned the crank a lot of times.
And now the tabla's gone. So, Zakir-ji
won't be able won't be able to perform.
Which means that Mira
can't perform either.
(SIGHS) We really messed up this time.
It's okay, guys.
We can still find that tabla
before the show.
We just have to figure out
which way the cart went.
Neel, can you give me any details
about the wheels on the cart?
Yes. They have an elephant shape on them.
And there they are.
If the tracks go that way,
that means the car went into town.
Neel, can you give us a lift
so we can get a good view of them?
Of course. Let's move.
There's a mud puddle down there
and I see track shaped
like elephants leading out of it.
Yes, Mira!
She's got this.
The tracks are curving around in a circle.
Hey, I see the cart.
MIRA: And Zakir-ji's tabla is
still on top of it!
-Yes.
-Great news.
Phew. Now, we just need to catch it.
Its heading into town square.
Hang on, We're coming in for a landing.
Hey, Mira, I know this
isn't a great time, but
We promised Zakir-ji,
that we would help you
memorize your new tabla part.
Remember, it goes
dhin-dhin-dhin-dhin-ta-ka-ta-ka-ta-ka.
No Mikku, it's
dhin-ta-takita-takataka-tataka.
Actually, it's
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
Dhadhin-dhadhin-takatakataka
Takatakatakataka
-Exactly!
-There it is!
Let's all keep practicing
while we chase that cart.
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
(SINGING) We gotta catch up
To Neel's speeding cart
We gotta get the tabla
And remember my part
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
Dha-dhin-takita
Faster.
They're counting on us
To bring the tabla back
We need it for the concert
Follow the elephant tracks
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
Dha-dhin-takita
Dha-dhin-takatakita
Dhadhin-dhadhin-takatakataka

Dhadhin-dhadhin-takatakataka
Takatakatakataka
(GASPS) Oh, no, it's getting away.
(PANTING)
On the bright side,
we've definitely got that
Dha-dhin-takita thing down.
I will never, ever forget it.
(SIGHS) We're not fast enough to catch up.
-But I know what is. The royal carriage!
-(HORSE NEIGHING)
Great idea, Mira.
Ram Singh Ji can give us a ride.
Ram Singh Ji, are you here?
Where is the Royal Guard?
This is no time for a snack break.
Well, if he isn't here to drive it,
then I will.
Are you sure, Neel?
Yes. We have to find that tabla
and there's no time to lose.
You never let me down, Mira.
Now it's my turn to help you.
MIRA: Thanks, Neel.
Uh, Prince Neel, have you ever actually
driven a carriage before?
-No, but how hard can it be
-(HORSES NEIGHING)
ALL: Whoa!
Hey, someone stole my carriage.
Hold my chai.
(COW MOOING)
Ram Singh Ji.
It's me. I need to borrow the carriage
for a little while.
Oh, Your Highness.
Of course. Be safe.
-Does he know how to drive that thing?
-(COW MOOS)
We're catching up to it.
Great job, Neel.
Prince Neel, have you ever considered
a career in Royal Carriage racing?
You're a natural.
Neel, it's turning that way.
-Got it.
-Careful.
Yeah.
Perfect. Now we just need
to find a way to
Mira, we got you into this mess.
So, we are going to fix it.
(MIKKU AND CHIKKU EXCLAIM)
MIKKU AND CHIKKU: Mira, we got this.
MIRA: Careful.
NEEL: Hold on tight.
Guys! To stop the cart,
you have to push in on the crane.
-Got it?
-Push. Oh!
Oh, no. It's speeding up again.
MIRA: Mikku! Chikku!
You need to get off of there!
Grab on to that clothing.
CHIKKU:
Mira, this is no time to go shopping.
MIKKU: She means jump!
Are you okay?
We're fine. But the tabla got away.
And we're so sorry, Mira.
Without that tabla, there's no way
I'll be able to perform with Zakir-ji.
Hey, we're not giving up, are we?
Mira, if there's one thing I've learned
from you is that there's always a way.
You're right, Neel.
There must be some way to stop that cart.
You know, these trucks turn.
Like, they're making a big circle.
-Yeah?
-So?
So let's think this through.
When we first saw the cart,
it was going in a small circle.
Then when we saw it from up in the sky,
it was making a bigger circle.
And now it's making an even
bigger one through town.
So the cart is making bigger
and bigger circles.
Which means that next, the cart will
make a circle even bigger than that one.
Exactly. And that'll help us
figure out where it's going next.
Okay. Here's a map of town.
If the cart is heading this way
and making a really big circle
-then the next place it'll go is
-ALL: The waterfront.
We have to get there
before the cart goes into the water.
-Neel's driving.
-MIKKU: And I'm buckling up!
(HORSES NEIGHING)
We need something that can stop the cart.
Like, this fabric.
Perfect. The cart should be coming
from over there.
Let's stretch out this fabric.
NEEL: Hold tight, everyone,
ALL: Here it comes!
CHIKKU: Yes! We got you, cart!
MIKKU: All right!
I've never been so happy
to see a tabla in my life.
Let's get it back to the palace.
Chikku's driving the carriage.
Not happening, Chikku.
It was worth a shot.
MIRA: Here you go, Zakir-ji.
Safe and sound.
Ah. Thank you so much, Mira.
Wonderful to see you again, old friend.
I knew our royal detective would find it.
Now then, I believe
we have a show to put on.
Yes, Mira?

(CROWD CHEERING)
Good thing we helped her remember that.
What would she do without us?
QUEEN SHANTI: Wonderful.
NEEL: Mira, you sound amazing.
(ALL CHEERING)
Great job, Mira.
CHIKKU: That's our girl.
MIRA: The Bike Day mystery.
MIKKU: Whoa!
Mira, look at all the people on bikes.
Isn't it great?
Everyone's getting ready for
our annual Bike Day ride through Jalpur.
CHIKKU: Dhruv, you missed a spot, buddy.
Hi, Pinky.
-Hi, Pari.
-Hi, Bala.
Hi, Manjeet. Hi, Ranjeet.
Hi, Mira.
Mikku and Chikku's bikes
are just about ready.
And we added some extra loud horns
that you're gonna love.
-MIKKU: Yay!
-Oh, boy!
Paramjeet, are you helping
your big brothers today?
Yep. They're showing me
how to use this screwdriver.
Remember, which way you turn it.
Left is loose.
And right is tight.
Wow.
-She did it.
-Genius.
She's a natural.
Pretty soon, she'll be
running the whole shop.
Wait! One last thing.
These handlebars need streamers.
Love it. Love it.
Now we're talking.
These are the greatest bikes ever made.
-Oh, yeah. This runs like a dream.
-(HONKING)
I'd say they're very happy
with their bikes. Thanks.
We couldn't have done it
without Paramjeet.
We've had so much work to do
getting ready for Bike Day.
Paramjeet, you really helped us out. So
We have a special surprise for you.
You do?
-A surprise?
-We love surprises.
Mummy! Pappa! We're ready.
RANDHIR: Yes. We're here.
(GASPS) Is it time for the surprise?
BOTH: It is.
Paramjeet, we built you a brand new bike.
Wow.
CHIKKU: Super shiny.
MIKKU: Magnificent!
And look, your brothers
gave you new training wheels.
They're even shinier
than the ones on your old bike.
Oh. New training wheels.
We want to be sure you can ride safely
without falling over.
It's a beautiful bike.
Wasn't that sweet of your brothers?
Very, very nice, boys.
Thank you, bhaiyya.
You're so welcome.
Now, we need to go out and mark the route
for Bike Day with these flags,
so everyone knows where to go.
Then we can take you for a spin
on your new bike. Okay, Paramjeet?
Okay.
Mikku, Chikku. Let's try out your bikes
before Bike Day starts.
-Race you to the park.
-Way ahead of you.
-Out of my way.
-Move it!
Whoops.
(HONKING)
(CHIKKU AND MIKKU WHOOPING)
Bye, everyone.
-See you later.
-RANDHIR: Bye.
CHIKKU: Whoo-hoo! Mongoose on the loose.
I can honk my horn louder than you.
-(HONKING HORN)
-You call that honking? This is honking.
(HONKING)
(GOOSE SCREECHING)
Okay, he wins.
MANJEET: Mira, Mira, we need your help.
What is it, Manjeet?
We went back to the bike shop.
And Paramjeet's bike
was parked out front
BOTH: And the training wheels were gone.
Yes. What he said.
-Oh, no.
-Did you look under the bed?
We find things there a lot.
There's no bed in the shop,
but we searched all over.
And we don't have
any backup training wheels, so
We have to find them or
BOTH: Paramjeet will miss Bike Day.
Yes. What he said.
Don't worry. We will find
the missing training wheels.
We're on the case.
(SINGING) 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
-We're on the case
Is this where the bike was parked
when you found it?
Yes, right there.
We don't want Paramjeet to know
that her training wheels are missing.
She'll be so upset.
Mira will find it.
She finds everything.
Blankets, paintings, islands.
Hmm, interesting. Manjeet, Ranjeet.
Do you recognize this screw?
It's got a star shape on the top.
That's from one of Paramjeet's
training wheels.
Yeah, we use screws just like that to
attach those training wheels to her bike.
So maybe it's a clue.
Let's keep looking.
The screw from
the training wheels is shiny.
So we're looking for shiny things.
Stand back, people.
Shiny. Shiny.
Oh, so very shiny.
Here you go.
They are shiny.
But we're looking for
shiny star-shaped screws.
Like that one.
Is this the same screw?
Yup. That's from
the training wheels, all right.
Maybe if we follow the screws,
they will lead us to the training wheels.
-MIKKU: See any more, Mira?
-Nope.
Huh, looks like Mr. Khan has something
stuck to his shoe.
-Maybe it's another screw.
-Let's find out.
-Hi, Mr. Khan.
-Hello, Mira. Hello, boys.
Uncle, I was wondering.
Did you step on a screw?
I did.
And I can't seem to get it out
of my sandal.
Stand back, everyone.
Expert screw-removers right here.
(BOTH GRUNTING)
Whoa!
Or we can use a pair of pliers
from our bike kit.
I like the pliers idea.
Yep, it's another one of the screws.
Mr. Khan, did you happen to see
a set of training wheels anywhere?
I'm afraid I did not, Mira.
Can you tell me
where you stepped on this screw?
It's hard to say.
I came here from the paint shop,
so probably between here and there.
Why would there be a screw
at the paint shop?
Let's go see.
-Thanks, Mr. Khan.
-CHIKKU AND MIKKU: Bye!
MIRA:
There's Meena. Maybe she saw something.
Hi, Mira.
Meena, have you seen anyone
with training wheels today?
No, I've been busy painting my bike
so it matches my outfit. See?
Isn't it fabulous?
Wait. Don't answer that.
I already know it is fabulous.
You know what isn't fabulous,
you're back tire.
-RANJEET: It's flat.
-What? That's impossible.
It's a brand-new tire.
(GASPS) Guys!
It's been punctured by the screw.
You must've ridden over it.
And look, this screw has a star
on top of it, too.
Okay. But what about the training wheels?
Training wheels?
What about my flat tire?
Meena, this is your lucky day.
Our bike shop just happens to offer
roadside repair service.
I recommend our deluxe package.
Go get yourself a mango lassi,
and by the time you get back,
your bike will be as good as new.
Okay, Manjeet. Thank you.
Manjeet, help me get the wheel
off her bike.
Mikku, Chikku, could you bike to our shop
and bring us a new tire?
MIKKU AND CHIKKU: You got it!
(GRUNTING IN DISTANCE)
Hey, Bala and Pari
are having a tug-of-war.
MIKKU: Bala!
CHIKKU: Pari!
MIKKU: Bala!
CHIKKU: Pari!
Mikku and Chikku have been gone a while.
Let me see what's taking them so long.
-Don't give up, Pari.
-You go, Bala! You can do it.
Guys, what's going on?
Bala is winning the tug-of-war.
No, Pari is.
Another screw.
Guys, I think they've got
one of the training wheels.
CHIKKU: Don't worry, Mira. We'll get it.
-Drop it, Bala.
-MIKKU: Drop the wheel.
(BARKING)
CHIKKU: Wow.
We are really good with animals.
Pari, come back here with that.
Not cool, Pari. Not cool.
Mikku, Chikku, try to get
Pari to run toward me.
-I'll grab the training wheel.
-We got this.
You've come to the right mongooses.
(BLEATING)
MIKKU AND CHIKKU: Whoa!
-Oh, we lost her.
-(BLEATING)
There she is.
-(BLEATING)
-CHIKKU: Meena, look out for the goat!
Huh?
Actually, this is
Fabulous!
I'm going to repaint my bike yellow.
(BLEATING)
MIKKU: This way, Pari.
CHIKKU: Who's a good goat?
Thank you, Auntie.
Pari, I have a treat for you
if you give me the wheel.
(BLEATING)
Thank you, Pari.
Great job, guys.
You found one of the training wheels!
Yes, but we still need the other one.
-(SIREN BLARING)
-CHIKKU AND MIKKU: Uh-oh.
That means Bike Day is starting soon.
-What are we going to do?
-Wait a second.
There's something stuck to this wheel.
It looks like a piece of streamer.
I've seen a streamer like this before.
Let's think this through.
First, we found four star-shaped screws.
They led us to Bala and Pari
who had one of the training wheels.
On that training wheel,
we found a streamer.
A streamer just like the ones Paramjeet
put on Mikku and Chikku's bikes.
So, what does that tell us?
It tells us Paramjeet might know
where the other training wheel is.
Paramjeet?
Let's go talk to her.
Boys, there you are.
Paramjeet is inside waiting for you.
Hi! Can we start biking now?
Actually, Paramjeet,
Mira has a question for you?
Pari and Bala found one
of your training wheels.
Really? They did?
Do you know where the other one is?
Um Uh
Yeah.
It's in this bush.
I hid both of them under there.
Paramjeet, why did you do that?
I've been riding with training wheels
for a long time,
and I really wanted to ride without them.
Just like you guys.
But why didn't you say anything?
You worked so hard on my new bike.
I didn't want you to feel bad.
I'm really sorry.
Boys, will you please put Paramjeet's
training wheels back on?
I have another idea.
I think I have the same idea.
Manjeet, Ranjeet, what a great idea
to teach Paramjeet
to ride without training wheels.
-You can do it, Paramjeet!
-CHIKKU AND MIKKU: You got this!
Steady. Steady.
-Here you go.
-Whoa.
I'm doing it!
RAJI: Hai She did it.
RANDHIR: We're so proud of you.
Our little Paramjeet.
She's growing up so fast.
Bike Day, here I come!
(ALL CHEERING)
PARAMJEET: No training wheels.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
RAJI: That's my daughter!
WOMAN:
This is my favorite day of the year.
RANJEET: Looking good.
MANJEET: Stay in your lane.
Don't you just love Bike Day?
Duck! Duck!
Goose? Oh, hi!
-Right back at you.
-Come on, we'll give you a ride.
Whoa, whoa! I can't see!
