Bye, pond.
I'll miss you!
See you soon.
Keep in touch.
Send me a postcard.
DUCKLING: Yep, time to go!
Bye, pond!
So long!
Adios!
Ehhh, what's up duck?
DAISY: Yeah, where you going in such a hurry, little cutie?
I'm leaving this pond... for good.
Why on earth would you want to leave your beautiful home at the pond?
Home?
This place?
Oh no, you are mistaken.
This is not my home!
MOTHER DUCK: Hello, darling!
DUCKLINGS: Hi, sis!
Okay, it's my home... but I wanna leave because this place is so-- uh, boring!
BEAVER: Timber!
NATURE CAT: Boring?
Au contraire, little duckling!
This place is filled with excitement!
Yeah!
It's like an wonderful little neighborhood.
Woo-hoo!
Okay, so it's not so boring.
Um... What is it, little duckling?
Why do you want to leave?
Well... the truth is...
I'm...
I'm... scared!
ALL: Scared?
Scared of what?
Well...
I'm scared of... water!
There!
I said it!
I'm scared of water!
Scared scared scared!
A duck who's scared of water?
What?!
I know, right?
So I want to live somewhere else.
Preferably wayyy away from the pond.
So, I'm out of here.
See ya!
You guys, we've gotta do something!
Yeah!
We can't let the little duckling run away!
The duckling can't leave her home!
No way!
Uh, guys.
She's leaving.
Yes yes yes!
Time to stop that duckling, tally ho!
Excuse me, little duck?
Hey!
You really should stay here with your family.
No.
But you're a duck!
Ducks live in ponds.
Not this duck!
You know, little duck, speaking of water.
'Tis true that I, Nature Cat, am scared of water too.
You are?
Yep!
I know, hard to believe.
A fearless, brave adventurer such as myself being scared!
But it's a cat thing.
Maybe we can both overcome our fear of water together.
Oh yeah, and we'll all help!
Well, um...
I would really miss my family... and this pond...
So, what do you say, duck?
I say...
Okay!
I'll stay!
ALL: Hooray!
Will you really help me?
But of course!
Onward and pondward!
