(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 Secret Code."
Hang tight! Puddle alert!
-Whoa, there.
-I got you, Mikku.
Oh, Mira, why are we in such a hurry?
All I know is Queen Shanti
asked we meet her as soon as possible.
It must be important, because we
haven't even had our morning snack.
Chikku, when the Queen calls for you,
you go.
Look at those hills.
They look extra green today
because of all the rain we had this week.
You know, Mikku, the shape of that hill
looks like your tummy when it's full.
Hey, you're right. Round and beautiful.
Okay, Queen Shanti said to meet her
in the Secret Royal Detective Office.
So let's head there.
Oh, Mira, there you are.
No, you can take the stairs.
Oh, hello, Mikku. Hello, Chikku.
ALL: Namaste, Your Majesty.
Mira, I'm sure you're wondering
why I called you here.
Yes, I am, Queen Shanti.
First, why don't you say hello
to an old friend?
Whoo! (LAUGHS)
ALL: Detective Gupta!
I mean, Namaste, Detective Gupta.
Oh, it's wonderful to see you again, Mira.
You too, Mikku and Chikku.
The Queen has filled me in
on the many cases you've solved.
I'm impressed!
Mira, you are a fantastic Royal Detective.
And we're her most fantastic
Royal Detective helpers.
If we do say so ourselves.
Thank you, Queen Shanti,
and thank you, Mikku and Chikku.
I couldn't do it without the two of you.
But now the Queen and I think
it's time for you to take
your detective skills to the next level.
The next level? What does that mean?
(SINGING) You've helped so many people
and had such great success
And as Royal Detective
You may wonder what comes next
You'll take on bigger cases
And responsibilities
You'll open up new doors
The future holds the key
More lessons to be learned
More puzzles to be solved
More stories to be heard
Are you ready for it all?
You've got to keep on going
And you know where you'll be going
The next level
We've got a challenge for you
A very special case
You need some strong detective skills
Have you got what it takes?
More lessons to be learned
More puzzles to be solved
More stories to be heard
Are you ready for it all?
You've got to keep on going
And you know where you'll be going
Somewhere special
The next level
BOTH: Are you up for the challenge, Mira?
Absolutely!
Well, then, here's a special mystery
I've put together just for you.
BOTH: What does it say?
"You have to find me."
Find me? What? You're right
Detective Gupta?
How'd he do that?
Where'd he go?
I think the mystery is that we're supposed
to find Detective Gupta.
That's right, Mira.
Once I flip this hour-glass,
you'll have until the sand at the top
reaches the bottom
to solve the case. Ready?
-No!
-Wait.
Your Majesty, we still
need to sing the On the Case song.
We can't go on the case without it.
Oh, of course. Please, go ahead.
We're on the case to find Detective Gupta.
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
Your time starts now.
-Good luck.
-Thank you, Your Majesty.
Let's look inside the pouch
to see if Detective Gupta left us a clue.
Maybe there's treasure inside.
I'd be happy with a ladoo.
That's not treasure.
CHIKKU: I can eat that.
It's a box with
four separate compartments.
How do we open it?
All the compartments are locked.
MIRA: Hmm, check out these holes.
They're all different shapes.
That's a square. I love squares.
I'm more of a circle fan myself.
Look, it's a triangle.
You can have it, Mira.
It's all yours.
This triangle is the same size
as the one on the box.
I wonder what happens
if we slide it in here.
It opened one of the compartments.
What's inside?
Well, I can't look, I'm too excited.
MIRA: There's a ladoo inside.
Dreams do come true.
It's not a real one
that we can eat, Chikku.
It's just a painting
of a ladoo on a stone.
CHIKKU: Aagh
Maybe it's a clue. Detective Gupta
did say we needed to find him.
So what's the best place to find ladoos?
BOTH: The sweet shop!
We need to hurry. Let's go.
-Oh, hello, Mira!
-Hello, Mrs. Jafri.
-We're here on a very special case.
-And the pressure is on.
Have you seen Detective Gupta?
No, I haven't, my dear.
Oh, I see ladoos, right here.
Mounds and mounds of ladoos.
Oh, and they're freshly made too, huh.
Help yourself.
Looks like there's something
on top of that mound.
-It's
-Detective Gupta.
-We found him.
-Case closed.
Let's celebrate with ladoos.
Not yet, guys. The case isn't closed.
This is just a figurine.
We still need
to find the real Detective Gupta.
But where?
I know! What does
Detective Gupta always say
when solving a mystery gets tough?
Run away faster?
Eat snacks quicker?
No. Look closer.
We need to take
a closer look at this figurine.
There's a badge on the jacket.
It's shaped like a square.
Maybe we can use the square
to open the next compartment of the box.
A square? Then I will do the honors.
Go ahead, Mikku.
-Yes.
-What's the next clue?
MIRA: A painting of a clay pot
with flowers on it.
Where can we find a pot like this?
We passed a pot just like that
-on our way here.
-I saw two of them at the dhaba.
And we have one too.
These pots are everywhere.
Mrs. Jafri,
where did your pot come from?
I bought it at the garden shop.
We need to hurry
and get to the garden shop.
Maybe Detective Gupta is there.
Thanks, Mrs. Jafri.
Good luck.
Look, those pots have flowers on them.
MIKKU: It's a match.
She's taking it to the next level, people.
There's something on top of that pot.
But it's way up there.
BOTH: Mira, we got this!
-Come on, Chikku.
-Right behind you.
BOTH: Whoa! Ooh, aah, a little help here?
How about we try my grapple grabber?
Another Detective Gupta figurine.
And he's wearing another badge.
But this one is shaped like
A circle. (EXCLAIMS) Let me do it!
Go ahead, Chikku, put it in.
Guys, it's our next clue. Guys?
MIKKU: What are you waiting for, Mira?
There is no time to waste.
Guys, wait.
You don't even know what the next clue is.
Ready for our next clue?
It's a camel.
If I were a camel, where would I be?
I know, they usually
hang out in the garden square.
Let's head there.
MIRA: Look, there's Tinku
and two of his camel friends.
-Hi, Tinku.
-(TINKU GRUNTS)
Have you seen Detective Gupta?
(TINKU GRUNTS NO)
It looks like there's something
tied to your hump, Tinku.
BOTH: We'll get it for you, Mira.
Thanks, guys. Let me clean this off.
BOTH: Another Detective Gupta figurine.
Which means another badge.
This one is shaped like a diamond.
Tinku, it's your turn to do the honors,
and put the diamond in the box.
Yes, Tinku, use all your mongoose muscle.
(TINKU GRUNTS NO)
I don't think he likes diamonds.
How about the two of you do it together?
BOTH: Okay, Mira.
MIKKU: The last clue.
BOTH: A key? What does it open, Mira?
I'm not sure.
There's no keyhole on the box,
but I bet if we find what the key opens,
we'll find Detective Gupta.
Oh, we're running out of time.
Think, think.
I do my best thinking right here, Mira.
And I think best right here.
Wait a second.
We've seen that shape before.
Let's think this through.
We found figurines of Detective Gupta
in three different places.
On a mound of ladoos, on a pot,
and on Tinku's hump.
All three of those things
have the same shape.
And if you put them together,
it looks just like a place in Jalpur,
the green hills
outside the city that we saw earlier.
What if Detective Gupta is there?
-Really?
-(GRUNTS)
He did not make this easy.
We need to head
to the hills across the river.
Chalo, chalo! Let's go!
Okay, those are the hills.
Where is Detective Gupta?
Wait, what's that?
It's a trail of Detective Gupta figurines.
MIKKU: That's a lot of Guptas.
Thanks, Uncle.
Let's follow the trail. Hurry.
MIKKU: When did Detective Gupta
find the time to make all of these?
That's the real mystery.
And the trail just ended.
We're never going to find him.
This case will never be closed.
Let's look in the cave.
Look, there are keyholes on the wall.
The key must fit one of them.
Uh, Mira.
Which one?
There are so many.
This could take a while.
We don't have a while, Chikku.
The sand is almost all at the bottom.
Wait, there are shapes under
each of the keyholes
that look like the ones we found today.
I think the shapes on the box
are like a code.
-A code?
-A code? What's that?
A code is like a secret message.
We need to find a set
of shapes on the wall
in the same order
as the shapes on the box.
So let's look for a key hole
that has a triangle, a square,
a circle, and a diamond, in that order.
You got it, Mira.
Super-shape-searchers at your service.
Triangle, circle, diamond, square. Nope.
Square, diamond, triangle, circle. Nope.
BOTH: Triangle, square, circle, diamond!
That's it. That's the one.
Oh, my hands are shaking.
Let's hope this works.
-Hurry!
-We're almost out of time.
It's a hidden door.
MIRA: Yes!
BOTH: Yahoo!
ALL: Mira!
Excellent job.
You solved the mystery.
And with time to spare.
We're so proud of you, Mira.
-Yes.
-We're proud, too.
Your Majesty, Detective Gupta,
what is this place?
Welcome to
the Royal Detective Headquarters.
This space has belonged
to Royal Detectives of the past,
and now it belongs to you.
It has everything you'll ever need.
-I'm honored.
-Inspired.
In awe.
(CHUCKLES) Mira,
you've reached the next level.
Go ahead, open it.
Wow, this is so exciting.
And you can use these tools
for any new mysteries that come your way.
Thank you, Detective Gupta.
But that's not all, Mira.
Now that you've made it to the next level,
like the Royal Detectives before you,
it's time to put up your portrait.
(ALL GASP)
You are in excellent company.
CHIKKU AND MIKKU: Wow!
Thank you, Queen Shanti.
Mikku, Chikku,
there is something here for you, as well.
Here you go.
BOTH: Ladoos!
Thank you, Queen Shanti.
This place really does have everything.
Oh, it certainly does!
MIRA: "Mystery at the Snake Boat Races."
I'm so excited to be back in Naiyapuram
and row in the snake boat competition.
-Snakes? In a boat?
-Where?
(LAUGHS) No, Mikku and Chikku.
A snake boat is a boat
that's long and thin,
so it looks like a snake.
Like our boat over there.
Mira, check it out.
Priya made life jackets for our team.
One for each of us.
I was her model and muse.
-Wow!
-Magnificent!
Very fancy!
Chikku, I think that one's mine.
These are for you.
Matches my eyes.
Fits like a glove.
Attention, Jalpur snake boat team,
please gather for an announcement
from your team captain.
-Gather around our leader.
-Prince Veer has something to say.
Today we race for our kingdom of Jalpur.
We must not lose!
Veer, I thought we were here
to have a good time.
Little brother, we cannot have
a good time unless we win.
Prince Veer is very serious
about this race.
We better win.
If we do, I bet we'll get
invited to a party
at the Royal Palace of Naiyapuram. Whoo!
Prince Veer, Prince Neel,
Mira, Meena, Priya.
Princess Shivani,
we look forward to racing today.
And so do we!
May I present my crew?
Team Jalpur, meet Team Naiyapuram.
Hi, I'm Mira.
I'm Jyoti.
I like your gloves.
Do you always wear them when you race?
Yes. They help me grip my paddle better.
Hey, look! There's our buddy, Swami,
the otter, and his brother.
(SQUEAKING)
From mongoose to otter, good luck.
Welcome, friends,
to the annual snake boat races
-between the Kingdom of Jalpur
-(CROWD CHEERING)
-and the Kingdom of Naiyapuram.
-(CROWD CHEERING)
And welcome to our honored guest,
Queen Shanti of Jalpur.
Thank you, dear friends, for hosting us.
Of course! It is our pleasure.
Please listen closely to the rules.
Today's competition
will consist of three races.
The team who wins
the most races wins the day.
These maps will tell each team
where to go.
Veer, shall I be navigator?
Of course not.
I'm the captain.
I must be in charge of every detail.
Snake boat crews, to your boats!
-Let's go! Whoo-hoo!
-(CROWD CHEERING)
Let the first race begin.
Okay, everyone, row in time
to Mikku and Chikku.
(CHANTING IN RHYTHM)
Nice rhythmic strokes. Great job!
Faster! Neel, you looked at a fern.
Focus on steering.
Priya, you look like
you might sneeze. No sneezing!
-Meena, perfect paddling.
-I know.
-Mira? What are you looking at?
-(FROG CROAKS)
The frog that jumped on my foot.
A frog? Ew! Keep it away! Keep it away!
-Don't worry.
-We'll get it.
Aah!
Can we keep paddling, please?
We're falling behind!
There are frogs everywhere.
Ew! Get them away! Get them away!
Shoo, frog, shoo.
Come here, you.
They're just frogs. Keep paddling!
Whoa, steady. You're gonna make us
Capsize.
Look how far ahead
Princess Shivani's boat is.
This is a disaster.
On the bright side,
all the frogs have jumped out.
All right, let's turn this boat back over.
-So strange!
-What is, Mira?
There were no frogs in the boat earlier.
How did they get in?
Do you think someone put them
in our boat on purpose?
Why would they do that?
So we wouldn't be able to paddle,
and then we'd lose the first race.
I'm not sure about that, Meena.
It could have been
an accident, but we're going to find out.
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
Most of the frogs jumped out
from under Priya's bench,
so let's start by looking there.
Hmm. There's an odd looking
orange blotch under the bench.
And it's sticky.
I wonder if it has something
to do with the frogs.
No time to find out.
Let's get back in the race.
Mira, magnifying glass down,
paddles in the water.
CHIKKU: And row, people!
Here comes Mira's boat.
And since Team Naiyapuram's boat
came in first,
they win round one.
ALL: Aw!
Team, you all did great. Your effort
is the reason we won this race.
Let's keep it up.
Team Jalpur.
See this loss as an opportunity.
An opportunity to try harder,
so we never lose again.
Prince Veer, is everything okay?
No. There's something under my clothes.
-(FROG CROAKING)
-Whoa!
-It's that frog.
-Get him.
Okay. To recap, try harder,
then we win and no more frogs.
(FROG CROAKING)
(CHANTING IN RHYTHM)
Paddle. Breathe in. Now, breathe out.
-Okay, Breathe in
-Veer, you don't need to remind us.
We all know how to breathe.
And look, we're even ahead
of Princess Shivani's team.
Yes, we're doing great.
-(CHANTING CONTINUES)
-Hi, Princess Shivani.
-(THUD)
-(ALL GASP)
Team Jalpur, this is not the time
to be bumping into things in the water.
Whatever we bumped into,
it came out of nowhere.
They're getting ahead! Paddle!
We can't, Veer. We're stuck.
Ugh! Soggy samosas!
What are we stuck on?
MIRA: It looks like
there's something under the water.
Let's pull it out.
(ALL GRUNTING)
It's a net full of coconuts.
What's it doing
in the middle of the course?
This is too strange.
You know what's even more strange?
There are more of those
same orange blotches on the net.
Mira, do you think someone put the net
there on purpose to make us lose?
I don't know.
We are not losing!
We've got to get back in the race.
And Veer's right. We can still win this.
Come on!
(CHANTING)
Paddle! Faster!
(OTTERS SQUEALING)
(CROWD CHEERING)
Yes, Team Jalpur! Keep it up!
Winner of race two, Team Jalpur.
-We did it!
-Well done!
-Exciting!
-Real nail-biting!
Great job, everyone.
Team Jalpur was just
a bit faster that time.
See what happens when you listen to me?
You tried harder and we won.
Now, if we win the third race,
we win the whole competition.
Now, Team Naiyapuram!
We have one last race.
We won't let you down.
All I ask is that you try your best.
Team, I agree with Princess Shivani.
Try your best to not let me down.
Let's go!
(CHANTING IN RHYTHM)
Mira, paddle faster!
Priya, paddle slower.
Everyone else, just paddle
better.
MIRA: The river splits in two directions.
Which way do we go?
According to the map, we go that way.
Everyone, paddle that way.
Veer, the current
gets really fast up ahead.
That's good. We want to go faster.
MIRA: It's a whirlpool.
VEER: That's not good.
NEEL: We're going in circles.
(ALL EXCLAIMING)
My earrings are about to fly off.
I'm getting very dizzy.
VEER: How are we gonna get out of this?
MIRA: I've got an idea.
Your grapple grabber!
Good thinking, Mira.
ALL: Whoa!
My earrings are safe.
I don't understand,
the map said to take this route.
-Look!
-Veer, wait a second.
This is not the map we got this morning.
-What?
-What do you mean?
That map had a very clear course
for the third race.
It wasn't through a whirlpool.
Neel, may I see the map?
Look! More orange blotches.
The same stuff we found under the bench
and on the net with the coconuts.
And now it's on the map?
Yes. I think the frogs, the coconuts and
this map must all be related in some way.
-But how?
-Here's one way they're related.
They've all made it impossible
for me to win the race!
Come on, guys.
We still have to finish the race.
And here comes Veer's boat.
The third race is won by Team Naiyapuram.
The final score is: Naiyapuram, two races.
Jalpur, one race.
That means
Naiyapuram wins the competition!
(CROWD CHEERING)
MAN: So sad!
I can't believe we lost.
Look on the bright side,
Prince Veer. We may have lost
But at least we came in second.
Team Naiyapuram, let's welcome
Team Jalpur to the finish line.
TEAM NAIYAPURAM: Yes, Your Highness.
Good race, Prince Veer.
Congratulations, Princess Shivani.
-Thanks, Jyoti.
-Sure, Mira.
(GASPS) Jyoti's gloves have
the same orange blotches we found before.
Excuse me, Jyoti, what are those
orange blotches on your gloves?
It's called rosin.
I put it on my gloves
to get a better grip on my paddles.
-I see.
-Why do you ask, Mira?
I can explain.
Please think this through with me.
Our snake boat was slowed down
three times today.
In the first race,
frogs jumped out from under the bench.
We found orange blotches there.
In the second race,
we crashed into a net full of coconuts.
The net also had orange blotches on it.
In the third race,
someone switched our map
and we ended up going
in the wrong direction.
That map had the same
orange blotch on it.
That's terrible.
How did this happen?
I was wondering that myself.
And then I saw that Jyoti has the same
orange blotches on her gloves.
Jyoti, do you know anything
about what happened?
Yes.
I put the frogs in their boat and I put
a net full of coconuts in the water
and switched Team Jalpur's map.
Jyoti, why did you do that?
Because I wanted our crew
and our kingdom and our princess to win.
We all want to win. But what you did
is cheating. We can't win by cheating.
That's not fair.
You're right.
I'm really sorry, Your Majesty.
And I'm sorry to your team, too, Mira.
Come on.
Let's tell everyone what happened.
Excuse me.
It has come to my attention
that our boat did not win fairly.
In fact, we cheated
in every one of the races.
(ALL GASP)
-How could this be?
-What happened?
It was my fault.
I take full responsibility for what I did.
I'm sorry, everyone.
Prince Veer, since our team cheated,
we're disqualified.
Your team wins the race.
That is very gracious
of you, Princess Shivani.
But our team doesn't want
to win that way.
Let's just race again.
Fair and square this time.
Fair and square it is.
-Rematch!
-Let's do this, people!
-Team Naiyapuram, good luck.
-And to you, Team Jalpur.
Crew, this time I won't insist
we do everything my way.
Let's do it Princess Shivani's way.
If we win, we win together.
If we lose, so be it.
We did it as a team.
-Well said, brother.
-Are we ready?
ALL: Ready!
-Hey, it's our old friend.
-Hi, Mr. Frog.
(KISSES)
Right back at you.
(KISSES)
(CROWD CHEERING)
