00:00Greenlanders melted my mommy!
00:04I thought it was because you invaded in the middle of summer.
00:11And since then, the invasion of Greenland has been...
00:16personal.
00:19Thanks for getting my toy back.
00:21My name's Leo, by the way.
00:22I'm Tabaluga.
00:23Friendly dragons, talking spiders...
00:27This place is amazing!
00:29Yeah, we kind of like it.
00:31Do you have orphanages here?
00:33What's an orphanage?
00:35Oh, wow!
00:37I think I'm gonna love it here!
00:40Um, don't you have a home of your own?
00:44No, not anymore.
00:46Is there anywhere you can go?
00:47A friend, or...
00:49No.
00:50Well, I can't leave you here.
00:52We're still too close to Arktos's territory.
00:55Is Arktos that scary snowman?
00:58Yeah.
00:59And he's always cooking up trouble.
01:01Troops!
01:03Let me go over our invasion plans once more.
01:06Step one.
01:08Demolish everything in Greenland with our snowbot.
01:11Step two.
01:13Same as step one.
01:15Any questions?
01:16Um, is there any chance your loyal troops might, uh...
01:21be paid a teensy bit more this time?
01:26What?
01:27Uh, yeah.
01:28Could we be paid, say, one ice cream each
01:31instead of the current pay rate, which is, um...
01:34Nothing!
01:36Oh, I feel faint, James!
01:43Of course you won't be paid!
01:46Now stop the snowbot!
01:57On consideration of the payment situation,
02:00the troops have decided to go on holiday.
02:04As of now!
02:08Come back here!
02:10I order you to come right back!
02:16Okay.
02:17Don't come back!
02:19I order you to leave immediately!
02:21I will operate the snowbot myself!
02:27Uh, do you think this is wise, oh, um...
02:30unfit overlord?
02:32Ha!
02:33I'm as strong as ten of them!
02:36I'll invade Greenland...
02:41myself!
02:47See?
02:50Huh?
02:55Oh, where's the break on this thing, James?
02:57There isn't one!
03:15Now, you'll just have to pay the troops your imperial iciness.
03:18There's no such thing as a machine that goes by itself.
03:21Huh?
03:22Wait a minute!
03:23Aha!
03:24There it is!
03:25There it is, James!
03:27The self-powered machine that will conquer Greenland!
03:31What?
03:32A funny pink Greenlander?
03:35No!
03:36His toy!
03:37A toy?
03:38Don't be so tense, James!
03:40We'll make a big one!
03:42How?
03:43Easy!
03:44We steal that one and figure out how it works!
03:47Huh?
03:50Oh!
03:51Oh, thank goodness!
03:53Footprints!
03:54Oh, Leo!
03:56We'll soon have you back home.
04:02Oh, dear!
04:04I'm going to need to get some help after all.
04:08Where are we going?
04:09To meet my friends.
04:11If you don't have a home, maybe they can think of something.
04:15Today is Greenland Day.
04:17What's that?
04:18A celebration that only happens once every thousand years.
04:22When that star appears, we have a big feast and a cake and everything.
04:28But the most important part is when the star shines through the jewel of Greenland.
04:34Well, why is that important?
04:36The Greenlanders believe it will give the country good luck for the next one thousand years.
04:44Tabernacle!
04:45You're back!
04:50I was getting so worried!
04:52Me too!
04:53I thought we'd never eat!
04:55Oh, sorry I took so long.
04:57But I had to save Leo here from Arctos.
05:00Leo?
05:01Who?
05:02Or what is Leo?
05:04Leo is what's called a boy.
05:07He says he doesn't have a home.
05:09Is he tame?
05:10Does he bite?
05:11I'm just like you, really.
05:16We probably enjoy the same things, like TV, for instance.
05:24Computer games.
05:29What about dancing?
05:30Everybody likes dancing.
05:35I knew it!
05:36Watch.
05:40What?
05:56Ta-da!
06:05I'm still working on it.
06:08Hurry up, James, and stop sulking!
06:11But why do I have to dress up as a banner?
06:14Because to be able to steal the toy, you have to disguise yourself as a Greenlander.
06:19But why a rabbit?
06:21Why couldn't I be an eagle?
06:23Or a lion?
06:24You?
06:25An eagle?
06:28Now get hopping!
06:32Okay, maybe there are some differences between us.
06:35But I know what we do have in common.
06:37What?
06:38Food!
06:42I like exactly the same food as you do.
06:44Watch.
06:46Leo, don't!
06:48It's okay.
06:49It's delicious.
06:50I knew!
06:51I made it!
06:53And I did the icing.
06:55Leo, this is a special cake.
06:58We don't eat this until the end of the feast.
07:01Oops, sorry.
07:03I'll fix it.
07:05Oh!
07:23How can one small person cause such a mess?
07:26It must be deliberate.
07:27Trying to destroy our festival?
07:30Let me clean it up for you.
07:32No, don't!
07:35Let us clean it up.
07:39This is our chance.
07:41Sneak up and grab the toy.
07:52I'm really sorry, Tabaluga.
07:54I didn't know.
07:55I was just trying to be friendly.
07:57I know, Leo.
07:58I'll try and make the others understand.
08:01Everybody, can I have your attention, please?
08:05Leo is a stranger in our country.
08:08I found him up on the mountain where I saved him from Arctos.
08:12Can't you see?
08:21What are you waiting for? Get the toy!
08:25Leo is very sorry for what he's done.
08:27It was an accident.
08:31No, really.
08:32He doesn't know our traditions.
08:34And he tripped on this toy.
08:36Give him another chance.
08:42Good.
08:43Now we just need someone to give Leo a home.
08:45Until he finds one of his own.
08:49It won't be for long.
08:51Just until he settles in.
08:54I guess Leo could share my home for a bit.
08:58I've got a lovely big burrow since I dug out the new playroom.
09:03A burrow?
09:04Thanks, Mr Mole.
09:06But I can't live underground.
09:08I'm human.
09:09What?
09:10Can't I stay with you?
09:12I won't be a nuisance.
09:13Promise.
09:19Yes, of course you can stay with me, Leo.
09:22For the time being.
09:27Come on.
09:28I'll show you where it is while the others get the Greenland Day feast ready.
09:31Again.
09:33Ready?
09:34Yeah.
09:40The plan is working perfectly.
09:42You could have fooled me.
09:44Once the Greenlanders kick the boy out of Greenland,
09:47I'll be able to get his toy.
09:50How are you going to make them kick him out?
09:53I'm not.
09:55You are.
09:56I...
10:02Oh, what a destructive creature that Leo is.
10:06I think Tapaluga's making a big mistake bringing him here.
10:11Oh, yeah.
10:12Yes, a big mistake.
10:14Leo is not a mistake.
10:17Yes, we should give him a fair go.
10:21Oh, OK.
10:22But he better not mess up our celebrations again.
10:29Hey!
10:47You won't be able to help until...
10:49when?
10:50But, Officer, he's been missing for two hours in the snow.
10:57I understand.
11:04Uh, hi.
11:06Where are the Newtons?
11:08Pardon?
11:09Doug and Deidre Newton.
11:11The Foster family.
11:12We've come to take Leo for Christmas.
11:21I can see why no one knew about TV or computers.
11:25Do you even have electricity here?
11:28Uh, I don't think so.
11:30But I've got a bed.
11:31You can have that, Leo.
11:33I don't mind sleeping on the floor.
11:35Ah, thanks.
11:43Well, looks like we'll both be sleeping on the floor.
11:47Sorry.
11:48Don't worry.
11:49This is your home now.
11:51Feel free to use anything.
11:53Ah, thanks.
11:56Leo!
11:57That's my washing bowl!
12:02Oh, well, at least I don't have to wash myself.
12:09Sorry for being late.
12:11But we were delayed by a small accident.
12:14An accident?
12:15With our Christmas tree.
12:17Are you all right?
12:18Oh, yes, yes.
12:19Although I think it is cutting off the circulation of my left leg.
12:28Oh, scissors!
12:30Now why didn't we think of that?
12:32It would have made driving a lot easier.
12:34You drove like that?
12:36Oh, we were in such a hurry to see Leo.
12:39Is he ready?
12:40I'm afraid...
12:42Leo has run off in the snow.
12:44He's disappeared.
12:46What?
12:47Let's find him.
12:54Oops.
12:55Wrong door.
13:00Happens all the time.
13:01He's the clumsy one of the family.
13:06Are you all right?
13:07Oh.
13:10Um, while we wait for Tamper Luger,
13:13I would like to propose a toast to the helpers.
13:17To the helpers!
13:26Who put salt in the fruit juice?
13:28Um, I saw Leo tampering with the drinks.
13:32Oh, I wouldn't be surprised.
13:34Didn't I warn you?
13:35It was probably an accident.
13:45It's sabotage.
13:47The legs have all been cut.
13:49It must be that boy.
13:51I told you so.
13:53Look, we don't know for sure.
13:57Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
14:02I'm sorry for all my mistakes, Tamper Luger.
14:05I'll try a lot harder. I really will.
14:08Don't worry, Leo.
14:09I'm sure everything will be okay
14:11once the Greenland Day celebrations begin.
14:14It's going to be such fun.
14:17Don't let that boy come anywhere near our celebration.
14:21What?
14:22Kick him out of Greenland.
14:24Oh, no.
14:25Yes, send him back to where he came from.
14:28Leo out. Leo out.
14:30Leo out. Leo out. Leo out.
14:34You're frightening him.
14:36Leo out. Leo out. Leo out.
14:48Oh, Leo, not again.
14:52Now what will we do?
14:55I don't know.
