(Giggling) That's amazing!
So let's be careful out there!
Aye-aye, Captain!
I will walk through the swamp in the most careful way I know how.
Nope, I can't do it, it's a picnic!
Whoopee!
ALL: Tiny Hal, wait!
Where are you going?
Come on, guys!
We can take a shortcut across these plants.
Wow!
These beautiful plants!
It looks like a colorful cup!
(Sniffing) Ah!
It smells awesome in there!
(Giggling) (Slurping) Whoa!
Nectar!
Yummy!
Whoa!
(Slurping) Oh yeah!
This should hold me over 'til the picnic!
Heh-heh.
Whoa!
This plant is steep!
If I'm not careful, I may get stuck in here!
(Grunting) Whoa!
I feel like I'm trapped!
Wait a minute.
I wonder if this is one of those bug eating plants of the swamp!
(Grunting) Tiny Pals?
Oh, Tiny Pals!
Tiny Hal, where are you?
TINY HAL: I'm inside this beautiful plant that looks like a pitcher!
TINY SQUEEKS: It's a pitcher plant!
It's traps bugs inside.
Tiny Hal, you're inside a bug eating plant of the swamp!
Yay!
Oh no wait, I mean, oh no!
TINY NATURE CAT: You've gotta get out of there!
TINY HAL: I would love to!
(Grunting) But every time I try to go up, I slip back down.
Yeesh, this is tiring!
(Sighing) Says here that's how the pitcher plant traps its bug lunch.
The bug gets tired, slips to the bottom, and the plant digests it for energy to grow and all the other sweet things plants do!
He'll never get out of there!
Not on my watch!
I'm coming for you, Tiny Hal!
Tally-ho!
(Sighing) Oh, boy.
Grab on, Hal, my tiny pal.
Woo-hoo!
Nature Cat!!
Woo-hoo!
Whoa!
Tiny Hal, you okay?!
I'm more than okay!
I'm great!
'Cause I met an awesome plant!
Now let's get to that picnic.
SQUEEKS, NATURE CAT AND DAISY: Tiny Hal, wait!
TINY HAL: Whoa!
How is he not getting it?
You have to be careful in the swamp, remember.
Of course I remember!
I gotta be careful!
(Chuckling) About what I have no idea.
You know what, maybe sing that song again.
That was catchy.
Reprise!
