0:00:35 > 0:00:40Every morning in the Outback, Ed the little wombat usually wakes up

0:00:40 > 0:00:45to the sound of his alarm clock ready for any new surprises.

0:00:45 > 0:00:47Ooh!

0:00:47 > 0:00:52But this day, Ned wasn't woken by his alarm clock.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55THUMPING That's funny!

0:00:55 > 0:00:58Something was making a very strange noise.

0:00:58 > 0:01:02Hello? Who's there?

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Hello?!

0:01:06 > 0:01:08Mitzi?

0:01:08 > 0:01:10HE GASPS

0:01:10 > 0:01:13Oh! Wow!

0:01:13 > 0:01:17- A balloon!- The balloon looked like a piece of pure sunshine!

0:01:17 > 0:01:21Ned didn't know where it had come from or how it got there,

0:01:21 > 0:01:26- but he knew one thing. - I don't know who this belongs to,

0:01:26 > 0:01:28but it's mine now!

0:01:30 > 0:01:34Frank, Buster, look what I found! Isn't it great?

0:01:34 > 0:01:39I woke up and there was this donk, donk, donk outside! And there it was!

0:01:39 > 0:01:46- It's lovely, Ned!- Yes! Maybe we should put some notices up in town,

0:01:46 > 0:01:52- see if anyone's lost it.- Oh no! It's mine. Finders keepers is the rule!

0:01:52 > 0:01:57You know, Ned, I'm not sure finders keepers is really fair.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02Oh! What a brilliant balloon!

0:02:02 > 0:02:07It's like...like a bit of sunshine on a string!

0:02:07 > 0:02:12- Can I hold it, Ned? - No, Mitzi. Sorry!

0:02:12 > 0:02:16- It's mine.- Oh, don't be a spoilsport.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18- Let me!- No!

0:02:18 > 0:02:21Oh, all right then.

0:02:21 > 0:02:24- Ha ha!- Leave it alone, Mitzi! It's mine.

0:02:24 > 0:02:29- That's not fair.- Morning 'all - got a little mail for you here.

0:02:29 > 0:02:34- KOALA BROTHERS:- Thanks, George! - Fine looking balloon , Ned!

0:02:34 > 0:02:39Had one just like it myself when I was a nipper. Let's have a look-see.

0:02:39 > 0:02:45Sorry, George. I found it, so I'm the only one who can play with it.

0:02:45 > 0:02:48Oh! I would've looked after it.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51- We know, George. - Ned's just being mean!

0:02:51 > 0:02:56How about a nice cold lemonade while you're here, George?

0:02:56 > 0:02:58Don't mind if I do. Thanks.

0:02:58 > 0:03:04- Mitzi?- No thanks. I've got things to do.

0:03:04 > 0:03:09..23...24...25.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11Phew!

0:03:14 > 0:03:17Oh! It's a beauty!

0:03:19 > 0:03:24- Mitzi!- Oh, come on, Ned! I was only looking.

0:03:24 > 0:03:30- What are you doing?- I'm going to put MY balloon in safe place.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32Oh!

0:03:32 > 0:03:34Thanks for the lemonade, Frank.

0:03:34 > 0:03:39- Mitzi, are you all right?- Ned won't even let me touch his balloon.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42- It's not fair!- I know how you feel.

0:03:42 > 0:03:47Maybe Ned's just worried that you might let it go by accident.

0:03:47 > 0:03:52- Then it would get lost.- But I said I'd be careful! So did George.

0:03:52 > 0:03:56Besides, friends should share things with each other.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Hmmm.

0:03:58 > 0:04:03That night, before he went to bed, Ned made sure his balloon was safe.

0:04:03 > 0:04:07He was planning to have lots of fun with it in the morning.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10HE YAWNS Night night!

0:04:14 > 0:04:16ALARM CLOCK RINGS

0:04:16 > 0:04:18HE YAWNS

0:04:21 > 0:04:25HE GASPS Where's my balloon? It's gone!

0:04:25 > 0:04:27It's gone!

0:04:27 > 0:04:32- Hello, Ned.- My lovely balloon - it's gone!

0:04:32 > 0:04:38- Did you take it?- Me? What would I want with your silly balloon?

0:04:38 > 0:04:43- I know you wanted it.- I didn't want it. I wanted you to share it.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46- G'day!- Oh, come in, George.

0:04:46 > 0:04:51- Do you know what happened to it, George?- What happened to what?

0:04:51 > 0:04:53Ned's lost his balloon.

0:04:53 > 0:04:57Oh! Sorry to hear that, Ned, but I haven't seen it.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00There's only one explanation!

0:05:00 > 0:05:06There must be a gang of balloon thieves in the area.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10I don't think balloon stealing is very common, Ned.

0:05:10 > 0:05:14Let's come over to your caravan. Maybe we can work out what happened.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Good idea, Frank.

0:05:16 > 0:05:20Ned, was this window open last night?

0:05:20 > 0:05:23Oh, yeah - I always sleep better with the window open.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26I don't think anyone took your balloon.

0:05:26 > 0:05:30I think it got caught by a breeze and blown out through here.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Well, did you find it?

0:05:33 > 0:05:37Nah, it's gone forever!

0:05:37 > 0:05:40Don't give up just yet, Ned.

0:05:40 > 0:05:45- Frank'll think of something. - We could always organise a search.

0:05:45 > 0:05:46Really?

0:05:46 > 0:05:50- Of course! - BOTH: We're here to help!

0:05:50 > 0:05:55I don't see why George and me should help. Ned never shared the balloon.

0:05:55 > 0:05:56KOALA BROTHERS: Mitzi!

0:05:56 > 0:06:00Ah! All right then!

0:06:00 > 0:06:04We'll take the plane and see if we can spot the balloon from the air.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07George and Mitzi can help look around here.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11- BOTH: Right.- Give us a wave if you find anything.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14So, where do we start?

0:06:16 > 0:06:20Mitzi, I'm sorry I didn't let you play with my balloon.

0:06:20 > 0:06:25That's all right, Ned. Don't worry. We'll find it.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28..two, three... Hello there!

0:06:28 > 0:06:31You haven't seen a balloon, Archie?

0:06:31 > 0:06:35It's gold and it looks like... It looks like...

0:06:35 > 0:06:38Like a great big bit of sunshine!

0:06:38 > 0:06:41Only on a string.

0:06:41 > 0:06:44Ooh, well, now you come to mention it,

0:06:44 > 0:06:49I did see something goldish out of the corner of my eye.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51- That'll be it!- Where?

0:06:51 > 0:06:54At the water hole, up in the old tree.

0:06:54 > 0:07:00- Water hole! What are we waiting for? - Thanks, Archie!

0:07:00 > 0:07:02Ooh, one, two...

0:07:02 > 0:07:08In the sky above, Frank and Buster weren't having any luck searching.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12- I can't see it anywhere.- Me neither.

0:07:12 > 0:07:18- Looks like the others are heading for the water hole.- Let's go!

0:07:22 > 0:07:25Ah, fellas, I think I've spotted it.

0:07:25 > 0:07:29Yes, that's it. You've found it, George!

0:07:31 > 0:07:34Here, let me try.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36SHE GRUNTS

0:07:36 > 0:07:42- George, can you get it? - Me? I don't know. I'll try.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Ooh!

0:07:45 > 0:07:47There you go, Ned.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51- Quick, George!- Ooh!

0:07:51 > 0:07:54LAUGHTER

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Come on, George!

0:07:56 > 0:08:00Nice going, Ned. Hey, that was fun!

0:08:00 > 0:08:04It's the best fun I've had since I found it!

0:08:04 > 0:08:09- Maybe we should all share... - My balloon - you've found it!

0:08:09 > 0:08:11Your balloon?

0:08:11 > 0:08:15Oh, thanks, Ned! I love my balloon!

0:08:15 > 0:08:20But this balloon isn't your any more. It's mine.

0:08:20 > 0:08:25Sammy gave it to Josie yesterday for her hard work in the shop.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28It slipped out of my hand and blew away!

0:08:28 > 0:08:34- This is the one Josie lost, Ned. - But I found it, so it's mine!

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Finders keepers.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38THEY MURMUR

0:08:38 > 0:08:42- Er, Ned. What about Josie? - JOSIE CRIES

0:08:42 > 0:08:44What am I going to do?

0:08:44 > 0:08:49I don't want Josie to be sad, but I love this balloon so much!

0:08:49 > 0:08:53There is one thing that would solve this problem.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Sharing?

0:08:55 > 0:08:59You might find that you have more fun that way.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02But suppose Josie won't share with me,

0:09:02 > 0:09:06like I wouldn't share with Mitzi and George?

0:09:06 > 0:09:10- Why don't you ask her? - And that's what Ned did.

0:09:10 > 0:09:14Josie, would you like to share the balloon with me?

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Definitely! Ooh!

0:09:16 > 0:09:19Well done, Ned!

0:09:19 > 0:09:23So everyone spent the rest of the day at the water hole

0:09:23 > 0:09:27playing with their special balloon. And thanks to the Koala Brothers,

0:09:27 > 0:09:33Ned realised that by sharing things, he could have much more fun!
