0:00:510:00:55

-# ..Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh. #

-I'll tell you why...

0:00:550:01:00

Oh! Ouch!

0:01:030:01:04

Hee-hee-hee!

0:01:040:01:06

You see, there was a time when Snake did have legs.

0:01:060:01:10

In fact, they had hundreds and hundreds.

0:01:100:01:13

Who's that?

0:01:130:01:14

Jambo, Snake! It's me, Monkey.

0:01:140:01:16

Oh, Monkey. Jambo!

0:01:160:01:19

But you see, Snake could not see. Not a single thing.

0:01:190:01:23

A thousand teeny-weeny legs and not a single eye in his head.

0:01:230:01:28

Ow!

0:01:280:01:30

Aye-aye-aye! Careful, Snake. Watch where you are going.

0:01:300:01:34

Oh, Zebra, please forgive me.

0:01:340:01:37

Well, as it's you, Snake,

0:01:370:01:39

and I know you can't see, which is a terrible shame,

0:01:390:01:42

because today I've got my very best stripes on.

0:01:420:01:47

-What's the special occasion?

0:01:470:01:49

The Tinga Tinga Festival of Colours!

0:01:490:01:52

It will be cool!

0:01:520:01:54

It's today, Snake. Everyone is getting ready. Woo-hoo!

0:01:540:01:59

He-he-he! You're going to look good. He-he-he!

0:01:590:02:04

You're not going to late, Tortoise?

0:02:040:02:06

Like you were last year, and the year before that, and before that...

0:02:060:02:11

Elephant! I'm going to set off nice and early this year.

0:02:110:02:15

I wouldn't miss it for the world.

0:02:150:02:18

Ouch!

0:02:190:02:20

-Snake!

-Sorry!

0:02:200:02:22

-Where are you off to?

-The Festival of Colours.

0:02:220:02:25

-Well, you're heading in the wrong direction.

-Oops!

0:02:250:02:30

Poor Snake.

0:02:300:02:32

Ooh! Ssssss.

0:02:340:02:36

Oooh! Oo-ee!

0:02:400:02:43

Who is this, and why won't you let me pass?

0:02:430:02:47

My apologies, Snake.

0:02:480:02:50

I didn't see you. SQUAWK!

0:02:500:02:51

What do you think of my party feathers?

0:02:510:02:54

Oh, aren't they spectacular?

0:02:540:02:57

Uh?

0:02:570:02:58

What? No praise?

0:02:580:03:00

No praise for a tail more beautiful than a rainy-season rainbow?

0:03:000:03:05

Peacock, I have no eyes.

0:03:050:03:07

Sorry, Snake. I quite forgot. But you are coming to the party?

0:03:070:03:12

Don't dilly-dally or you'll miss me shake my tail feathers.

0:03:120:03:16

Which way is it?

0:03:160:03:18

Peacock? Peacock?

0:03:180:03:21

Ow!

0:03:230:03:25

Oh, not again!

0:03:250:03:27

Ooh!

0:03:270:03:28

-Snake!

-Oh, Tortoise, I thought you were a rock!

0:03:280:03:32

I'M A TORTOISE! I'M NOT A ROCK!

0:03:320:03:35

A TORTOISE, CAN'T YOU SEE?!

0:03:350:03:38

I can't SEE anything.

0:03:380:03:40

Sorry, Snake.

0:03:400:03:42

That was thoughtless of me. Come to The Festival of Colours with me.

0:03:420:03:46

I don't want to go any more.

0:03:460:03:48

I won't be able to see anything.

0:03:480:03:51

Hmmm. Have you ever thought of borrowing some eyes?

0:03:530:03:57

No.

0:03:570:03:59

If you borrowed the eyes of an animal who isn't going to the party,

0:03:590:04:03

you could see everything for yourself.

0:04:030:04:08

But everybody's going to the party.

0:04:080:04:11

Frog isn't. Frog's not well. He's got a terrible fever.

0:04:110:04:14

Oh? I'll ask him. Thank you, Tortoise.

0:04:140:04:17

Maybe see you at the party.

0:04:170:04:19

Ha-ha! If I ever get there...

0:04:190:04:22

RIBBIT!

0:04:240:04:25

RIBBIT!

0:04:270:04:29

A-a-achoo!

0:04:290:04:32

HE SNIFFS

0:04:320:04:33

Off to the party?

0:04:330:04:35

I've brought you some leaves and bark to make you feel better.

0:04:350:04:39

HE COUGHS

0:04:390:04:41

How kind! Why aren't you going?

0:04:410:04:44

I can't see anything. And I was...I was...

0:04:440:04:47

-Spit it out, Snake!

-Can I borrow your eyes?

0:04:470:04:50

Oh...well, I suppose so.

0:04:500:04:54

Seeing as you have been so kind...

0:04:540:04:57

Oh! Hee-hee!

0:04:580:05:00

Oh! They're big!

0:05:000:05:03

Ooh! They're very big!

0:05:030:05:05

Too big, eh?

0:05:050:05:07

Ooh-ooh.

0:05:070:05:08

-Why don't you try Chameleon?

-Uh?

0:05:080:05:10

He's got much smaller eyes.

0:05:100:05:13

During the festival he stays on his twig, praying for a new colour.

0:05:130:05:17

Take some flies. Chameleon LOVES flies.

0:05:170:05:21

Woo! How about sunset, eh?

0:05:230:05:26

This one's called "Nature".

0:05:260:05:29

Ta-da! Now you see me...

0:05:290:05:30

now you don't! Ha-ha-ha!

0:05:300:05:33

Woo! How about this one? Ha-ha!

0:05:330:05:36

Rainbow! Or what about...

0:05:360:05:38

Stop! I can't see you and I can't see your colours.

0:05:380:05:42

Hey, Snake, sorry about that. I'm here. Follow the voice, buddy.

0:05:420:05:46

Over here!

0:05:460:05:48

Mmmm! Are those flies?

0:05:480:05:50

Wow! They're good!

0:05:510:05:53

Chameleon, Frog said you'd be praying for a new colour today,

0:05:530:05:58

and wouldn't be going to the party.

0:05:580:06:00

Same every year. New colour, whole new outfit.

0:06:000:06:03

Works every time.

0:06:030:06:05

Well, I was wondering, could I borrow your eyes

0:06:050:06:08

so I can go to the party and see everything?

0:06:080:06:12

And if I give you the eyes, I get the flies, right?

0:06:120:06:15

The whole basket.

0:06:150:06:17

Deal!

0:06:170:06:18

Ooh!

0:06:190:06:21

Colour!

0:06:210:06:23

Lots of colour!

0:06:230:06:25

Oh! Too many, too many!

0:06:250:06:28

Bit too good, eh?

0:06:280:06:29

Sorry I couldn't help, Snake.

0:06:290:06:32

Oh... I'll never be able to see.

0:06:320:06:35

Ow!

0:06:390:06:40

Ow!

0:06:460:06:48

Unngh!

0:06:530:06:55

Urrgh!

0:06:560:06:58

-Can't you see I'm struggling?

-No.

0:06:590:07:02

Oh, you got no eyes.

0:07:020:07:04

No eye things at all. Oops, sorry about that.

0:07:040:07:07

Me too.

0:07:070:07:08

Let me introduce myself. My name is Pediless,

0:07:080:07:11

which means I've no feet, I've no legs and means I'm going nowhere!

0:07:110:07:17

Oh, I'm just a lowly snake.

0:07:170:07:20

With no eyes.

0:07:200:07:23

Hey, have you got eyes?

0:07:230:07:25

-Yes.

-Why don't we swap?

0:07:250:07:28

I'll swap you all of my legs for your two eyes.

0:07:280:07:31

Just for a day.

0:07:310:07:33

Then you can get out of your hole and I will be able to see.

0:07:330:07:37

Hmmm...all of your legs?

0:07:370:07:40

Every single one.

0:07:400:07:41

Done.

0:07:410:07:43

-Hee-hee!

-Ho-ho!

0:07:430:07:45

Ha-ha! Yes!

0:07:450:07:48

Ha-ha-ha!

0:07:480:07:50

I can run! I can run and jump and hop and scurry!

0:07:510:07:55

Look at that! Look at that! That is a definite scurry.

0:07:550:08:00

He-he-he! I can see!

0:08:010:08:03

I can see everything!

0:08:030:08:06

Thank you, Pediless. I'll see you here tomorrow.

0:08:060:08:10

Same time, same rock.

0:08:100:08:12

Tomorrow, same time...

0:08:120:08:14

Oof! Same rock.

0:08:140:08:16

Oh, yippee! I can see!

0:08:160:08:19

I can see!

0:08:190:08:22

Oh, how do I move?

0:08:220:08:24

Oooh!

0:08:270:08:28

Weeee! Woo-hoo!

0:08:280:08:32

Wooo!

0:08:320:08:33

Woop-woop-wooo!

0:08:330:08:35

I can see!

0:09:230:09:24

Hmm...

0:09:280:09:29

-Jambo, Snake!

-Jambo, Tortoise.

0:09:290:09:31

I had a wonderful time at the party.

0:09:310:09:34

Oh, no! Did I miss it again?

0:09:340:09:37

I saw everything!

0:09:370:09:39

Oh, did you borrow those eyes from Frog?

0:09:390:09:42

They belong to Pediless. You haven't seen him?

0:09:420:09:45

-No, I'm afraid not.

-Hmm.

0:09:450:09:48

Well, I suppose I might as well make my way back to the water hole.

0:09:480:09:52

I might get there sometime next week.

0:09:520:09:55

Where is Pediless? Hmm...

0:09:550:09:58

Oh, well. I can't wait forever.

0:09:580:10:01

So many things to see!

0:10:010:10:03

-What a party!

-Did you see Snake slither?

0:10:030:10:06

-Snake could move!

-Shh!

0:10:060:10:08

-WHISPERS:

-Snake could groove!

0:10:080:10:10

Monkeys!

0:10:100:10:12

ACHOO! RIBBIT!

0:10:120:10:15

-Still not well, Frog?

-I'm all croaky.

0:10:150:10:17

Hmm, Chameleon gave you his eyes, eh?

0:10:170:10:21

No, Pediless did. You haven't seen him?

0:10:210:10:24

No, he's probably lost. RIBBIT!

0:10:240:10:27

If you see him, please tell him he's very welcome to keep all my legs.

0:10:270:10:32

I will. RIBBIT!

0:10:320:10:34

But Snake never saw Pediless again.

0:10:340:10:37

And that is why Snake has no legs.

0:10:370:10:40

Pediless became Millipede...

0:10:400:10:43

-Which way now?

-..the worm with a thousand legs.

0:10:430:10:47

And Frog losing his voice...

0:10:470:10:49

COUGH! RIBBIT!

0:10:490:10:51

..well, that's a whole other story.

0:10:510:10:54

RIBBIT. RIBBIT.

0:10:540:10:58

RIBBIT.
