# Welcome to the Furchester Hotel. #

Lift it, Shake it, Find it.

Enjoy your stay, dear guests. We're so glad you're here.

-BOTH:

-Thank you.

Oh, this is a terrible problem. Indescribable. Whatever shall I do?

-What's the matter, Mrs Moodle?

-I have lost my favourite hair curler.

-The one that goes right here.

-Oh, I am sorry. Would a cup of tea help?

I don't want a cup of tea. I want you to find my curler.

Well, our guest's wish is our command, Mrs Moodle.

-We are on the case.

-On the case!

-We'll solve this problem.

-Oh, thank you.

Well, curlers are small and round. Maybe it rolled under something.

Why don't we lift everything in the hotel and check?

I know just how you feel, Mrs Moodle.

-Ten years ago, I lost my favourite button.

-Oh, how very sad.

A nice, round yellow button.

-Ugh! Sorry, we're having a bit of trouble with the lifting.

-Yes.

-Come on, Funella, let's phone for help.

-Yes.

-A yellow button, you say? You must miss it very much.

-Oh, I do.

Hello, is this the Lift It company?

Oh, we have some things that need lifting. Can you come right away?

Ha! Splendid.

Hello, we're from the Lift It company. Their two strongest mice.

THEY FLEX THEIR MUSCLES

Excellent.

We've lost a hair curler and we think it might be under something.

All right then, we'll lift everything in this hotel,

tout de suite.

We'll find that curler, don't you worry.

Do you really think two little mice can lift all our rugs and furniture?

CRASHING AND BANGING

It sounds like they've got everything under control.

-Who's making all that noise?

-Yeah!

-It's the Lift It company.

They're trying to find Mrs Moodle's hair curler.

-Anything?

-No.

-I do miss it. Argh!

-Argh!

Still nothing.

-Well, we lifted everything in the hotel and we found 16 pennies.

-Oh!

-And a cookie...

-Oh, boy! You found lost cookie.

Me look everywhere for that.

Nom-nom-nom-nom. Nom-nom-nom-nom. Nom-nom-nom-nom.

Thank you, little mice.

..and a stamp and an egg. But we didn't find a hair curler. Sorry.

MRS MOODLE BLOWS HER NOSE

They didn't find my curler. I think my heart will break.

Don't worry, Mrs Moodle. We can solve your curler problem.

You know our motto, a Furchester never gives up.

# Well, hardly never, A Furchester never gives up. #

Well, when Elmo lost his crayon in his blanket, Elmo didn't give up.

Elmo shook the blanket and Elmo found his crayon.

You shook your blanket?

Maybe we can shake the hotel and find the curler?

Hello? Yes, is this the Shake It company?

We need to shake a curler out of our hotel.

Could you send someone over, please? ..Thank you.

Shake It mice, at your service.

We will shake the Furchester from top to bottom. Ha-ha!

But how can two little Shake It mice shake a great, big hotel?

Well, we do it by jumping up and down. Hold on, everyone.

And Shake!

Shake! Shake! Shake! And stop!

Right, does anyone see the curler?

No, Elmo doesn't see it.

Oh, then we will bring in our special shaking machine.

-It will shake the hotel even more.

-Stop! Wait, Dad.

I don't think all this shaking is good for the hotel.

You may be right, Phoebe.

I'm sorry, mice, but we'll have to try something else.

-As you wish. Farewell.

-Farewell.

If only there was some kind of machine for finding things.

Mrs Moodle! You've given me a tiptop idea. Here we go.

Hello, yes, is this the Find It company?

Do you have a find it machine?

Find It mice, at your service.

Our brand-new Find-a-Tron will find whatever you have lost. Guaranteed.

Oh, stand back. This is a very powerful machine.

Here it goes.

Argh! Whoa!

That-a-way!

Whoa!

This way!

The plant!

I will dig and I will find.

No, no, no, not my plant.

-What are you doing?!

-I found something.

-My button! My yellow button! You found it!

-Here you are.

Like we said, this machine will find anything.

The batteries have ran out.

I'm sorry but that's all the finding we can do today.

-Ta-ta!

-Thank you.

Oh, old yellow.

There must be some way we can find this curler?

-Well, let's put our furry heads together and think.

-Yes, yes.

Oh, yes! That's it!

Mrs Moodle, I distinctly remember seeing you

-with your curler in the dining room last night.

-Oh, yes.

Elmo saw Mrs Moodle with her curler when Elmo said good night to her.

Fuzza-wubba! That gives me a monster idea.

Maybe the last place Mrs Moodle saw her curler is where she lost it.

-Let me think, the last place I saw my curler...

-ALL: Yes?!

GONG

Tea-time!

I've got it! I saw it in the...

PANDEMONIUM

..bedroom!

MORE PANDEMONIUM

BOTH: The bedroom!

-I know I had my curler when I woke up in my bed.

-Yes?

-And I had it in my bath.

-Uh-huh.

And I had it when I opened my suitcase to dress.

But then, when I went to leave, I didn't have it.

So, you lost it somewhere between the suitcase

-and the door.

-Elmo will check the floor.

-Can I check your suitcase, Mrs Moodle?

-But of course.

Oh, I found it! I found your curler!

Oh, my darling, wonderful hair curler. Reunited at last.

Moo! Moo! Moo!

Thank you, Furchesters, for helping me find my favourite hair curler.

-It was our pleasure, Mrs Moodle.

-Oh, yes.

And it looks just perfect next to that one... Oh, no!

-You've lost your OTHER curler!

-No! Not my second favourite curler!

-Don't worry, Mrs Moodle, we'll help you find it.

-Yes.

We'll turn the hotel upside down until we do.

Hello? Upside Down company?

We need to turn the hotel upside down. Now!
