00:00Ba-ba-ba-ba...
00:30Mooman Valley is enjoying another still, peaceful summer's day.
00:46However, this lazy lifestyle, no matter how pleasant it might be, does not suit everyone.
00:53Oh.
00:56Yes?
00:59Would you like a cup of coffee, dear?
01:01Yes, I think I need one, Mama.
01:04Oh dear, is it your memoirs?
01:06I'm stuck.
01:08Ah, can I help?
01:10How can I create in this?
01:12In what?
01:13In this sleepy atmosphere. I've also come to a boring part.
01:16When was that?
01:18The time I wrote poems.
01:20Were they any good?
01:23No.
01:24Well, miss that bit out then.
01:27I can't. I must put it down for posterity. It is my duty.
01:34But how can I get inspiration here in this place where nothing ever happens? Nothing ever happens at all.
01:40Oh, I think this means another adventure.
01:43Yes, Mama, but I need it to be big, exciting, and frightening.
01:51Mama, what's the matter? Are you all right?
01:54Your father says that because nothing ever happens here, he can't write.
01:58So I'm looking for an adventure for him. Can you think of anything?
02:02He wants it to be big, exciting, and frightening.
02:05Does he want something really exciting?
02:07Yes, dear, I'm afraid so.
02:10Ha, I think I could manage that.
02:16Ha, that looks like the footprint of a huge monster.
02:35Oh, it's a good feeling giving others a bit of excitement.
02:46Just a couple more.
02:53Oh, praise the boo-boo. I don't have to do honest work very often.
02:57Phew, that was harder than I thought.
03:02Oi, sleepyheads.
03:06Wake up, everybody. Moominpappa, quickly, get up.
03:11Moominmama, a monster. You've been visited by a monster.
03:16Wake up before you're eaten alive. Come on, hurry, hurry.
03:22My, what huge tracks.
03:25Ha, that should keep them guessing for a while.
03:31Hmm, it could be a monster from the depths of the ocean.
03:35Something's not right here.
03:37Don't you think it's a bit odd that it came directly to Moominhouse?
03:40Well, look at the footsteps. They go in a straight line.
03:44Someone must have told it to go to Moominhouse.
03:50And they're only going one way.
03:52Look, there aren't any footsteps going back to the sea.
03:55Oh no, then the monster must still be here then.
03:58Ah, well, not necessarily.
04:01Retracing one's own footsteps is the sign of an advanced intelligence.
04:05Stepping back exactly the way you came.
04:08The tough question is, why would the monster do that?
04:11One is led to believe that it wants us to think it's still here.
04:15When, in fact, it has gone back to wherever it came from.
04:19Fiddle-faddle, as my dear mother would say.
04:22But why would it want us to think that, Papa?
04:25It's a spy.
04:27What's it spying?
04:28Something it shouldn't. It'd hardly be a good spy if we knew.
04:31They have to sneak in and out.
04:33I think it's still here. I can feel it. You know what I mean?
04:38Perhaps tonight.
04:40Tonight? What about tonight?
04:43That's when they'll attack. It's gone back to give its report.
04:46How do you know that, Papa?
04:48Well, obviously, that's why it still wants us to believe it's here.
04:52Mama! Mama!
04:53Yes, what is it, Moomin?
04:55Something terrible is going to happen.
04:57A monster is going to attack us tonight.
04:59And Papa's excited about it.
05:02Oh good, that's nice for him.
05:06Hurry, everyone. I expect the monster will be here soon.
05:18Now hold it still.
05:21This is going to be a good barricade, don't you think?
05:24We'd better make sure it's big enough.
05:27It's hardly any fun at all playing tricks on them. They're so gullible.
05:35If we catch the monster, we can sell it to a zoo.
05:38I'll handle the sale, of course.
05:41I'd rather tame it and keep it as a pet.
05:44We could ride on it to go picnicking.
05:49Oh, no time.
06:00Right, now for the moat. Here we go.
06:04I hope the well's got enough water in it.
06:08It'll be able to swim in this, Papa.
06:11Yes, it'll remind it of the sea and keep it calm.
06:15This is fresh water, Papa. We'd better put some salt in it.
06:18Good idea, Moomin. We'll plant some seaweed and put some rocks in too,
06:23and then it'll feel really at home.
06:30I wonder when it'll come.
06:33I don't know, but I can feel in my bones it'll be tonight.
06:37And we keep watch until it comes?
06:39Of course we will. Constantly.
06:41What if it doesn't come?
06:44It might be a long wait, so we'll take it in turns.
06:47And remember, everybody,
06:49the safety of Moomin Valley relies upon our vigilance.
06:53We must be ready.
07:14Oh.
07:17Look at what those fools have done.
07:20It was worth all the trouble.
07:25Huh?
07:27Look, they put down food as bait.
07:30Moominpappa must be worn out.
07:32Well, I'll take the food anyway.
07:34Carefully does it.
07:36Don't want to wake up the guard.
07:38This is great.
07:41I've managed to play a really good trick on the stupid Moomins,
07:45and they've given me a slap-up meal as well.
07:52What's that?
07:54The monster's here. Shut the gate.
07:59There's the rope. Quickly!
08:03No, no! Stop!
08:05Wake up everybody! To arms!
08:07Stop!
08:11No, it's only me!
08:13Make room! I'll get it!
08:15Oh, where is it?
08:17There's no monster, only me!
08:19Please, it's me! It's me, Stinky!
08:22Stinky?
08:24Well, it sounds like Stinky.
08:26Be careful, everybody. It's a baby monster.
08:28I'm not a monster! Please help me!
08:30I made the footprints!
08:32You did? He's obviously lying. He's too small.
08:35Watch him, or he'll go get his daddy.
08:37No, please! I beg you!
08:39Hello, Moominpapa.
08:41Oh, hello, Snufkin.
08:43Why don't you let Stinky go? It really is him, you know.
08:46It is?
08:48Yes, it was Stinky, and he really did make those footprints.
08:52How do you know that, Snufkin?
08:55I was fishing off the shore last night when I saw him digging the holes.
08:59The little rascal was at it for hours and hours.
09:10Why don't you come inside, Stinky?
09:12This is great!
09:14It was very good of you to make the footprints.
09:16Papa hasn't had so much fun in ages.
09:19I'm glad. It was hard work, and I lost all my hair, too.
09:23Well, mischief isn't always easy.
09:26It is, isn't it, Stinky?
09:28Yes, it is.
09:30I'm glad you're here, Stinky.
09:32I'm glad you're here, too.
09:34I'm glad you're here, too.
09:36Well, mischief isn't always easy, you know.
09:39You can say that again.
09:41This is delicious.
10:03Papa, are you all right?
10:05Yes, thank you, Moomin.
10:15Mama.
10:16Yes, dear?
10:17Shh! I've got something important to tell you.
10:20What is it, Papa?
10:22A secret that my mind is made of.
10:24Of course, dear.
10:26I'm going to run away on an adventure trip.
10:28That's nice for you.
10:30It's a trip without a destination, full of mystery, hazards and hardships.
10:34And you're coming, too, Mama.
10:36Oh, splendid.
10:38Shall we take all the children, or just Moomin?
10:41No, no children.
10:43That would be the same as here, only somewhere else.
10:46We'll run away.
10:48Run away, Moominpapa?
10:50I'll be an adventurer again, just as I was in my last youth.
10:54And with you by my side, we'll have adventure, romance, all we desire, the sun, the stars.
11:00But what about Moomin? He'll be frantic.
11:02He won't, and it's time he learned to stand on his own feet, fend for himself, become a man.
11:07We can't protect him forever, you know.
11:09He's big enough to be left by himself.
11:21Come on, Mama.
11:25Oh, just a moment, Papa.
11:27We can't take anything more with us.
11:30No, I know, but I forgot to write down where the sugar is.
11:34If they can't find it, they'll just have to do without.
11:38But then they won't be able to make cakes, and the tea will taste awful.
11:42Oh, and they'll never find the cinnamon on them.
11:44Where shall I leave it?
11:47Goodness, Mama, cinnamon, I ask you, when the unknown is calling to us.
11:52I should have gone on my own. Indeed, I should.
11:55But then what good is an adventure when you can't say,
11:57whew, that was a close shave to someone afterwards?
11:59Is there anything wrong, Papa?
12:01No, everything is fine, but we must leave before dawn.
12:05Oh, right.
12:07We have a long way to go.
12:09How far, and where? It's very dark, you know.
12:13Yes, isn't it? We'll just follow our feet, and they say this way.
12:18Good morning, Mama.
12:22Mama, where are you?
12:48What's the matter, Moomin?
12:52My parents are missing.
12:54Are you sure?
12:55Of course I'm sure.
12:56That's a bit of a problem. I'm getting hungry.
12:59I need my breakfast. I have to start the day with a good meal.
13:02I'm starving.
13:03Me too.
13:08Don't worry, Moomin.
13:10I'm sure that Moomin Mama and Moomin Papa will be back home very soon.
13:14But where could they have gone to, Snufkin?
13:16No idea. Have they left a note?
13:19Have you had your breakfast yet, Moomin?
13:21No, nothing. It's not the same without Mama.
13:25Cheer up, Moomin.
13:27You can have this fish.
13:29And I'll come up to Moomin House and cook it especially for you, if you like.
13:33Thanks, Snufkin.
13:34But there are two cooks there already.
13:36Little My and Sniff are both trying to cook.
13:39A bit of this and a bit of that.
13:43This is great.
13:45There's lots of delicious things I want to try out.
13:49Where are we, Papa?
13:51No idea, Mama.
13:53Too dark to see anything at all.
13:56We've been gone for hours.
13:58I think it should have been light by now.
14:01Oh dear, we have to face it. I'm afraid we're lost.
14:05I'm sorry, Mama, but there it is.
14:07What do you mean?
14:09Well, in the dark we must have wandered into some caves.
14:11Who knows how many different tunnels we took.
14:13It could be weeks before we find our way.
14:22Little My, it's burning.
14:24Mind your own business. I might like burnt food.
14:27It's very nutritious. Watch your own cooking.
14:29It couldn't be any worse than the last lot you made for us.
14:33Ha! I wonder where Moomin is. He likes my food.
14:36I'll get him to try it.
14:38I can try mine first. Now that I've practiced, it'll be perfect.
14:41Moomin, I've got something for you.
15:08Mama! Papa!
15:39What was that?
15:50Moominpappa, wake up!
15:53Moominpappa?
16:08Moominpappa?
16:22It tastes brackish. We must be quite near the sea.
16:39That's a big one.
16:45Gotcha!
16:50Moomin! Moomin!
16:52Why are you so far from home?
16:54Mama! At last!
16:56Look, I've caught a big one!
16:59It's a big one!
17:01It's a big one!
17:03It's a big one!
17:05Mama! At last!
17:07Look, I've caught a big fish!
17:09Come and help me quickly!
17:11Don't let it get away.
17:22I've never seen such a big fish, Moomin.
17:25Just wait till Papa sees it.
17:27Oh, yes. Moominpappa.
17:30This looks familiar. It's Moomin Valley, isn't it?
17:33Of course it is. Just outside the cave.
17:35Oh, dear. I'm afraid that your father will be a bit disappointed.
17:39Where is he, then?
17:41Well...
17:45He's gone, looking for adventure.
17:47Adventure? Where?
17:49I don't really know. Somewhere.
17:51I could have gone with him.
17:53When's he coming home?
17:55I'm afraid I don't know that either.
17:58You know Papa. Tonight, tomorrow night, next Christmas.
18:02Your guess is as good as mine, Moomin.
18:05Wow! I bet he's having a great adventure right now.
18:09Ain't Mama?
18:22Mama?
18:25Hello? Where are you?
18:29Oh, the cave dwellers must have her.
18:34Oh, Mama.
18:43Mama!
18:45Mama! Oh!
18:47Can you hear me?
18:49Oh!
18:59Goodness, the sea.
19:07Well, this looks like...
19:10Oh, it's... Oh, dear.
19:17Deary me. I don't...
19:22Oh, well. Oh, my.
19:24Oh, you see.
19:27It might be...
19:31Oh, yes, of course.
19:34Deary me.
19:43Oh, look, look. It's Papa.
19:45Papa's back, everyone.
19:49Welcome home.
19:52Ah. Well, I'm back.
19:56I'm so pleased to see you again.
19:59Thank you, Mama.
20:01Papa, how was your adventure?
20:03Unexpected, yes. That's what I'd say.
20:06Unexpected. Any food?
20:08Oh, yes. You can try mine first, Moominpapa.
20:11No, mine's the best. Try mine, Papa.
20:14Oh, that's good. I'm starving.
20:16Tell us about your adventure.
20:18I'll eat first.
20:20Were you in mortal danger? Did you eat any rats?
20:23I suppose his adventure was...
20:25I don't think Papa wants to talk about his adventure yet.
20:28Maybe later.
20:30And that was the end of Mama and Papa's adventure.
20:33They didn't get far, but then you don't have to sometimes for things to happen.
20:38Or at least for you to think they're happening.
