You've got me, brave knight.

I surrender.

Yes! I, Mike the Knight, am the greatest rescuer ever.

Huzzah!

-Ha-ha-ha.

-Ha-ha.

-Ha-ha.

-Oh, well done, Mike. Playing rescue is so much fun.

-Yeah.

-And it's not scary at all.

-Hmm, that's true.

A real rescue would be more knightly.

I'll look it up in my Big Book For Little Knights In Training.

"Rainbow. Rams' horns.

"Rescuing!" Ah!

There, that's what a real knightly rescue looks like,

a knight rescuing a princess from a tower.

You could do that, Mike. You rescued me!

From a big, fire-breathing dragon.

Hwooaaarrrh!

Yeah, so a real rescue will be easy.

Ah! By the King's crown, that's it.

I'm Mike the Knight and my mission is to really rescue someone.

# Mike the Knight

# Mike the Knight. #

Ha-ha-ha.

Woo-hoo!

Ha-ha-ha.

Yeah.

# Mike the Knight. #

A carrot?! How can I use a carrot to rescue someone?

-If anyone can find a way, Mike, you can.

-Thanks, Sparkie.

But, Mike, are you sure we can find someone who needs to be rescued?

Don't worry, Squirt. Come on, dragons, to the village.

-Woo!

-Yeah!

Right, who needs to be rescued?

Oh, dear. Oh, is that the time?

Hmmm.

Oh. Everyone looks fine.

Oh, well, no-one to rescue here, let's go home.

Wait, Squirt, there must be someone to rescue.

Let's see what my book says.

Ahem.

"When looking for a rescue, remember these steps -

"listen, look, ask, then rescue."

Listen, look, ask, that sounds easy,

I should be able to find someone now.

Hmm, and I know who.

-Squirt and I will help.

-OK.

-Come on, Squirt.

-Listen, Squirt.

-Uh-huh.

-If we dress up like the lady in Mike's book...

-Mm-hm.

..then he can rescue US.

Oooh.

-BANG BANG

-Ah!

BANG BANG

Listen. Could that be the sound of someone who needs rescuing?

Mike the Knight to the rescue!

Huh?

THE BLACKSMITH HUMS

Oh, maybe not.

Help! Help!

-Ah!

-Save me from this scary beast.

Neigh.

-No, save

-me!

Er, Sparkie, are you sure this will help Mike?

Yes, Squirt. I mean...

SQUEAKY VOICE: Yes, Mike must rescue us from this terrible creature!

GALAHAD SNORTS

From this terrible creature!

GALAHAD WHINNIES

Help! Save us.

Ha-ha-ha.

OK, then, I suppose I can save you while I'm waiting for a real rescue.

Ahem. Fear not, Lady Sparkie and Lady Squirt,

Mike the Knight to the rescue.

Stand back, you terrible beast.

Get away, you monster.

-Aaah!

-MIKE GASPS

-Aaaah!

-Huh?

Aah! Aaaah-ah.

Listen, that sounds like someone who REALLY needs rescuing.

GALAHAD NEIGHS

-Wow!

-Ah!

Mike the Knight to the res...

cue.

Mike, what are you doing? Look at my washing.

But I thought you needed to be rescued. You were screaming.

Screaming! I was singing.

Ah-ah-ah-aaah.

Oh, that's what that noise was.

Now I've got to start all over again.

-Er, here you are.

-Oh!

-Oh, sorry.

-What does a rescuer need to remember again?

-Listen, look, ask.

Then rescue.

That's it. I DID listen, but I forgot to look or ask.

I'll get it right next time.

Yes, you will, Mike, because Squirt and I will help you.

Come on, Squirt, let give Mike a real rescue to make.

A real rescue? Right.

Help, save us.

-Mike, listen.

-I am listening.

-Now look.

-I am looking.

WE need rescuing.

Oh, there must be a real rescue around here somewhere.

Sparkie, you're stepping on my tail.

Oh.

If this was a real rescue,

wouldn't you be higher up, like the princess in the tower?

You're right, Mike. What about on the back of that cart?

-Come on, Squirt.

-Whoa. Oh, hello.

Right, this time, I'll be a scary dragon

and you can be the lady in the cart, I mean, tower.

-Oh, can't

-I

-be the scary dragon and YOU be the lady?

Oh, all right, but I hope you're going to be really scary.

Just watch and see how scary I am.

Rrr. Rr-ra. Rarr.

Oh.

DOGS YAP

Yip, Yap, heel.

-Oooh.

-Hello, Sparkie, Squirt.

BOTH: Hello, Queen Martha.

-Rar-rar.

-Save me!

-Hello, Mike.

-Hello, Mum.

-What are Sparkie and Squirt doing?

I want to rescue someone, but everyone's fine,

so they're trying to help by pretending THEY need to be rescued.

-Rrrr!

-Argh!

Oh, that's nice of them. Have fun.

-Ooooh!

-What was that?

Oh, no.

I listened and it sounds like someone needs to be rescued.

So now I look.

-HE GASPS

-Smoke!

It looks like someone needs to be rescued too.

Come on, Galahad, Mike the Knight to the rescue!

Mrs Piecrust, what's happened?

Watch out for that... Oh!

CRASH

Out, out of my bakery. You've knocked over all my pies.

But I saw smoke, I thought you needed to be rescued.

Rescued! I burnt a pie, one tiny, little pie.

-Oh, no, sorry, I should have asked.

-Hm!

Wah! Yip, Yap, leave that pie alone.

-Oh, no, look out!

-Ah!

THE HORSE WHINNIES

Mum!

Ah! Whoa, whoa.

Oh!

-Oh, no, it sounds like they need rescuing.

-Oh, dear.

-It looks like they need rescuing.

-Oh!

And this time, I'll ask too.

It's time to be a knight and do it right.

Mum, Sparkie, Squirt, do you need to be rescued?

ALL: YES!

Mike the Knight to the rescue.

Huh?

ALL: HELP!

Oh, no, the drawbridge is up.

Faster, Galahad.

Be careful, Mike.

Here goes.

One, two, three!

Yes! Whoa, boy, steady, slow down.

He's not stopping, Mike.

Ah!

Look, horsie.

-Oooh.

-Help!

ALL: Huzzah!

Oh, Mike, well done!

You rescued all of us.

You were wonderful, Mike.

Only a knight could make a rescue like that.

Oh, I'm so proud of you.

Thanks, Mum.

It's because I remembered to listen, look, ask and then rescue.

< Ahem.

Oh, right.

# When you need to make a knightly rescue

# Listen, look and ask are what you must do

# That's what Mike did As we have just seen

# When he rescued the dragons and his mum, the Queen. #

Ole!

# Be a knight, do it right

# You can be a hero too

# Never rest on a quest

# Do the best that you can do

# There'll be trouble, double trouble But it's gonna be all right

# Every day is an adventure for Mike the Knight. #
