Right there?

-Can me dig up the treasure?

-Oh, yeah.

Come on, Crew! Let's look fi clues.

Little Patch, you wait here in case they turn up.

Look, footprints!

Nice work, Zoomer. Let's follow them.

SCRATCHY GASPS

Check it out, guys! A likkle spade!

It's very nice, Scratchy,

but don't you tink we need to focus on looking fi clues?

But this is a clue, Zoomer!

Me just found it lying upon the sand.

-It must belong to one of them likkle orphans.

-Cool spotting, Scratchy.

That means we must be on the right track.

And look, more footprints!

Look there, treasure!

Oh, man! It's just an old brass button!

A-ha! It na just any old button, Zoomer.

It look like it came off Black Whiskers' pirate jacket.

It could be a vital clue to them whereabouts.

Whoa! Really? Me found a vital clue? That's crucial?

Good work, Zoomer.

Come on, Crew, let's carry on following them footprints.

-One, two, five, six...

-LITTLE MICE SQUEAK

Yo, Black Whiskers! Likkle ones!

-Wa'gwan?

-Ah-harr! Easy Crew!

Me can't understand what happen.

Me tink Little Patch make a mistake when she draw this map.

-Hmm.

-Now, we's all lost. Ah-harr.

You na worry yourself.

Just follow me and the Crew, and we'll get you to the beach,

-where you can have your picnic.

-Ah-harr!

LITTLE MICE SQUEAK

Yo, Easy Crew, Black Whiskers, likkle ones!

Thank goodness you're safe. Wanna dig up the treasure now?

Me think them might need their picnic first!

Them likkle orphans look bare hungry, for real!

Good idea, Rastamouse. Now, let me see.

One, two, three pies.

One, two, three, four ginger beers.

Wa'gwan?

There's supposed to be six of each of these.

LITTLE MICE MOAN

-Hmm. Black Whiskers, you have something to tell us?

-Ah-harr.

OK, me fess up. Me never learned to count, minus, divide, times, or add.

Anyting with numbers make me proper confused, so me get nervous,

and starrrt to feel bad.

Me was too embarrassed to tell Little Patch,

as me know it just narr cool.

So, me try real harrrd to cover it up,

but now, me just feel like a fool.

So that's why you ended up in the wrong place on the treasure hunt.

-Arr.

-And you na get enough pies and ting.

-That's right.

Me na get enough to go round, arr.

You no need to worry about that, Black Whiskers, cos look!

There's three pies.

By cutting them in half,

we get six pieces!

Just the right amount for them likkle ones.

-LIKKLE ONES SQUEAK

-Cool thinking, Scratchy!

-That's called dividing by two.

-And look!

We could use these coconut shells as cups,

-and share out the ginger beer that way!

-Arr.

Black Whiskers,

you na need to be embarrassed if you find something hard to do,

like counting and adding and dividing,

cos numbers, them tricky for true!

Sometimes, all you need is a fun way to learn,

and to stop letting it make you all stressed.

Soon you'll be counting straight from one to ten,

-and you'll know you're trying your best.

-Ha-harr!

Now, me have an idea how to make a bad thing good, but first...

me need to call the Prez.

TELEPHONE RINGS

Greetings!

Oh, thank goodness. You found them.

Hmm?

Go on.

Oh.

That plan there sound proper, Rastamouse.

Yo. It's me, Bagga T, bag of trouble, double G.

-LITTLE MICE SQUEAK

-Ha-ha-harr!
