Nature Cat: Hal..Hal.
Where are you my pal?
Daisy: Hal!...Hal!
He's not here.
Squeeks: We need to find him soon he's gonna miss the eclipse!
Squeeks: Hey, there's Norman the squirrel.
Yo, Norman!
Have you seen Hal?
Norman!?
Squeeks: Okay...Norman seems a little scattered.
Or he's mad at me...Huh, what did I do to Norman?
Ronald: Yeah, he's probably scared, Squeeks.
Nature Cat: Scared?
Of what?
Ronald: Scared that the moon's gonna take a giant bite out of the sun!
Heh heh heh he.
NC/Squeeks/Daisy: What?!
Ronald: See?
Daisy: Ronald, that's not a bite!
The moon is just blocking that part of the sun.
Nature Cat: Yeah, the sun is still there, we just can't see much of it.
Ronald: Oh yeah...Your theory makes a little more sense than the moon biting thing.
Squeeks: Yeah.
Come on.
Let's keep looking for Hal.
He's missing everything!
Daisy: Haal?
Hal?
Squeeks: Haaaa-aaaal!
HAAL!
Ronald: Hal!
Haal!
Woaah!
All: Haaal!!
Nature Cat: Where are you Hal?!
Nature Cat: Whoa, it sure is getting darker!
Squeeks: And listen, it's gotten really quiet.
I don't even hear a bird chirping.
Daisy: Look, that robin is settling down for nighttime.
It thinks it's time for bed!
Bonnie Owler: ♪ Today's a special one ♪ ♪ A total eclipse of the suuuuun!♪ NC/Squeeks/Daisy: Bonnie Owler!
Daisy: What are you doing here?
It's the middle of the day, and I thought you only came out at night?
Bonnie Owler: It's starting to feel like night.
Plus, I want to watch the eclipse!
HOOT!
Ronald: But Bonnie, birds can't sing or chirp during an eclipse.
Bonnie Owler: Whatchatalkin' about?!
I can still hoot!
HOOT!
And if that robin didn't think it were night, he'd be singing a tune.
Ronald: Hmm... You know... That actually makes sense.
Squeeks: Bonnie!
Have you seen Hal?
We can't find him anywhere and we don't want him to miss the eclipse.
Bonnie Owler: I haven't, but you'd better find him soon.
Bonnie Owler: The moon is blocking a lot of that sun.
Bonnie Owler: It will be a total eclipse soon.
Nature Cat: Well, come on, let's go!
Thank you, Bonnie Owler!
Bonnie Owler: ♪ Today's a special one.
♪ ♪ A total eclipse of the suuuuuun!
♪ Nature Cat: Daisy!
Why are you stopping?
We've got to find Hal.
Daisy: But guys!
Look at my California Poppies.
Ronald: They're withering up, right?
I told you so!
Boomshakala!
Squeeks: Oh for goodness sake Ronald.
Let's just go look.
Daisy: Cool!
The petals have closed up.
Ronald: This proves that my great, great, great grandfather was right.
Uh, right?
Daisy: Sorry, Ronald, but my poppies close up like this at night.
It's a little bit darker than usual so maybe the dim light is making them do that!
Squeeks: That must mean... Squeeks: (Gasps) All: Whoa!
Daisy: My flowers may be closed up now, but I think that when the eclipse is over, the petals will open up again.
Ronald: Hmmm.
That does make more sense than what my Great, Great, Great Grandfather said.
Ronald: You know what?
I think the eclipse might not be scary after all!
Nature Cat: That's great, Ronald.
Now we need to find Hal so we can convince him that it's not scary too!
Squeeks: But where is he?!
Ronald: I'm sure you've already checked his doghouse, right?
Daisy: Man oh man!
Why didn't we think of this sooner?
Nature Cat: I really don't like to say this... but...Ronald... Ronald: Mhm?
Nature Cat: (Sigh) You are a genius!
Ronald: Well tell me something I don't know, Nature Cat.
