Rastamouse! How come we stopped jamming already?

-We going to watch the Great Big Skate.

-To watch the what?

-The orphan sponsored skateboard ride, remember?

-Sponsored?

What does that mean?

The orphans have asked all the mice in town to donate them some money.

To keep the orphanage running nice and proper.

If they and Bagga T can skateboard all the way to Mousetego Bay.

Sounds like a cool way to raise some G's for the orphanage.

Sure is, Zoomer! And them starting pretty soon.

True that, Scratchy. Let's go!

Rastamouse, come in, come in. Are you reading me?

Message from President Wensley Dale. Listen up, you three.

We need you to get over to them orphans

straight away cos this just can't wait.

Something proper bad has happened

that mean them can't do their Great Big Skate.

Huh, Zoomer, Scratchy, let's shift.

-Me wonder what's up.

-Whatever it is, we sure we can help.

If them orphans don't get to their sponsored skate,

they gonna be proper sad.

-Oh, Easy Crew!

-What's happened to upset the orphans like dis?

Now hear, Bagga T, bag of trouble double G.

Dis skateboard thing is a mystery.

That's a weird thing to steal and me can't believe this real.

But someone gone and thief all of them skateboard wheels.

So someone's taken the wheels off of them skateboards?

So the Great Big Skate's not happening?

And that's not all, me favourite cooking pot's missing too!

-THEY GASP

-Well, it makes me sad.

Easy Crew, let's investigate.

This where they keep their skateboard.

Look out for clues, guys.

Yo, guys, there's something hidden back there.

Ahh! It look like...

Me cooking pot! How dat get there? Oops!

-Ah! The missing wheels!

-So, the Great Big Skate's back on!

THEY CHEER

That's a most confusing crime. And now there's trouble in me mind.

We never gonna get all them boards fixed up in time.

So, the Great Big Skate's back off?

No worry yourself, lickle ones. We're expert skateboard menders.

-Right, Easy Crew?

-Right!

If we all help, we'll get these fixed in time for sure.

THEY CHEER

That's right, President. Yeah, man. Very strange.

But the good news is, we fixed all of them skateboards. Ha-ha.

Catch you later, Wensley.

-Rastamouse, come on!

-We don't wanna miss the start!

True dat. Easy Crew, let's shift.

-You look like you thinking hard, Rastamouse.

-Yeah, man.

Me wondering who took them wheels off, and why.

Sure is mouseterious! But at least the Great Big Skate is back on.

And they got lovely weather for it.

-It's a perfect day!

-Me hopes so, Zoomer.

Oh, look how happy they are.

You must be happy too, Bagga T, that you get to do the

-skateboarding with them, after all.

-Him can't wait.

Right, Bagga T?

President Wensley Dale,

you come to see the start of the Great Big Skate?

Fraid not, Rastamouse. Me came to say that the Great Big Skate's off.

Wha...? How come, Mr President?

Sunny, the weather mouse, called. And me is reliably informed

-there's gonna be thunder, lightning and ting.

-A storm, you say?

-A humungous, enormous storm.

-Oh!

-Oh!

-Oh!

-Exactly when's this thing going to happen?

-Real soon.

Sunny the weather mouse, him never wrong.

Me sorry, lickle ones. You can't go skateboarding after all.

Me feeling really sad cos Sunny forecast it so bad.

To go ignoring the weather warning, would be completely mad.

True dat, Bagga T.

-But there's not a cloud in the sky.

-Hmm.

Me think we should go and chat with Sunny. Come on, guys.

-Easy Crew, you cool?

-Here, Sunny, what's up?

-How come you told the President there's gonna be a storm?

-Storm?

-Storm? There's no storm coming!

-Are you sure about that?

-Sure?

Me? Sure? It's going to be hot and sunny.

Sunny and hot, like always. Ha-ha-ha!

We better check in with the President.

-Later, Sunny.

-See you later, Crew.

-Rastamouse, what going on?

-Sunny say he never call you about that storm.

Hmm? Me was sure it was him on the phone.

He even rapped the weather forecast. Like Sunny always does.

-Rapped it?

-Sure, he went..

"You mustn't go outside, got to stay indoors and hide

"so the orphans can't go on the skateboard ride."

-Just like that.

-Most puzzling.

-Good news for the orphans, though.

-True dat! Can me use your phone please?

-Sure ting.

PHONE RINGS

Rastamouse, what's up? Uh-huh.

Definitely no storm? The Great Big Skate's back on!

THEY CHEER

Hear that, Rastamouse? They over the moon.

Ha-ha! On our way, Bandulu!

Easy Crew, let's go!

There's a lot of stuff me still can't understand.

Like, who made that phony phone call about that phoney storm?

And who took them wheels off them skateboards?

Me not know.

But let's hope it's third time lucky for the Great Big Skate.

Ha-ha-ha! Are you all ready to...uh-oh.

THEY CRY

Me almost not wanna ask. What's up now?

-What? Bagga T is sick, you say?

-Him got mouse measles?

And him got to stay indoors until him better?

It's true, Easy Crew. Look!

Me name's Bagga T, bagga trouble, double G.

And me covered in these mouse measles, see?

Me mustn't go outside, got to stay indoors and hide.

So me can't go on that skateboard ride.

Him tell the orphans to go without him but they're too disappointed.

They say it wouldn't be no fun without Bagga T. Right, lickle ones?

THEY CRY

I can't even give them nice toast and jam to cheer them up.

Me jam's gone missing!

-Your jam, you say?

-That's right.

Easy Crew, let's check the kitchen for clues.

Me head's spinning faster than a speeding skateboard wheel.

First that sponsored skate's on, then it's off, then it's on again,

-then it's off...

-Look! Red dots!

-Ahhh!

If we can't save the Great Big Skate,

maybe we can find that missing jam, at least.

-Yeah, man. Maybe.

-The red dots lead out the back door.

Easy Crew, come on!

This way!

-Behind that bush, there. Look!

-Ahhh, Bandulu's jam! And see here.

-Trainer prints.

-Leading back to the orphanage.

Right up to that open window.

Me think me know what's going on. And me got a plan to prove it.

KNOCKS ON DOOR

Bagga T! Them mouse measles look real nasty.

How you feeling, Bagga T?

Me got all these big red spots and they itch an awful lot.

-Aww. Anything else?

-And me feel proper sick.

Oh, and hot.

Bandulu, what's the first thing you do if the orphans get ill?

Me check how hot their foreheads are. Like this.

That's funny. Him not feel hot at all! Eeek!

Now me got mouse measles!

Ha-ha! Me not think so. Look!

Oh! Jam?

Bagga T, you wanna tell us what's going on?

Me name's Bagga T, bagga trouble, double G.

And me never learned to ride a skateboard, see?

Let me give it to you straight. Cos me know that it's not great,

that me try to get out of doing the Great Big Skate.

So you took off them wheels?

And told the President there was a storm coming?

And when none of that worked, you took the jam

-and painted on them mouse measles?

-Hmmm.

Bagga T, you shoulda been honest from the start.

You shouldn't have took that stuff and made up them stories. But me can

-see how sorry you are.

-THEY MURMUR

You wanna know if the Big Skate's on or off?

Would it be cool if da Easy Crew came with you instead?

THEY CHEER

Cool show. And me know how Bagga T can be with you all the way.

And how we can make a bad thing good.

THEY CHEER

# Me name's Bagga T bagga trouble, double G

# And me never learned to ride a skateboard, see?

# Let me give it to you straight Cos the Easy Crew are great

# They working out a way for me to pass the Skate. #

# Skateboard to start. Booyah! #

Well done, lickle ones. You finished your sponsored skateboarding

and the crucial beats of Bagga T kept you moving and grooving.

Him gonna keep rapping all day cos him doing a sponsored rap-a-thon

to raise even more G's for the orphanage.

THEY CHEER

Hmm-hmm. Easy crew, come in! Come in! Are you reading me?
