"Uncle Humidor"

Woo-hoo!

Slow down!

No time!

Queen Delightful never rings the emergency Bing Bong Bell!

Better take the shortcut!

Hold on!

Again. Again. Again.

To the castle!

Hi ho!

Your Majesty. What's wrong?

Save us!

Leave our Queen alone, you big meanie!

Whatever you say, Bashful!

Uncle Humidor!

Surprise!

Ha ha ha! Hello, my boys.

¶ He's Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle ¶

¶ Uncle Humidor ¶

¶ He's Queen Delightful's uncle and he likes to go explore ¶

¶ He sails the mighty oceans and then he comes to shore ¶

¶ He's Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle ¶

¶ Uncle Humidor ¶

My turn.

Faster!

¶ I'm Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle ¶

¶ Uncle Humidor ¶

¶ I'm Queen Delightful's uncle, and I like to go explore ¶

¶ I sail the mighty oceans and then I come to shore ¶

¶ I'm Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle ¶

¶ Uncle Humidor ¶

This time, backwards.

Take it, Happy.

Sure, that's easy.

Cats and jammies!

That's the ticket!

Hello, Sneezy.

Wake up, Sleepy.

Good to see you, Happy.

Grumpy.

Hello, Dopey!

How's my favorite artiste?

That's a corker!

Good show, old boy.

And, Doc, I see you're still traveling about

in your amazing funnel tunnels, what?

Can you really go almost anywhere in Jollywood?

You betcha.

Never know where

Queen Delightful might need our help.

It's good to know when I'm off exploring,

the brave and noble 7D are looking after

my precious niece.

I- - I... I... Kind of help, too.

Oh, of course you do, Stickybottom.

Starchbottom? No, thank you.

Speaking of exploring,

I'm on a quest at this very moment.

One that's taken me the last 20 years.

Spotting every type of bird in the Kingdom

and drawing it for my book.

The Illustrated Compendium Of The Birds Of Jollywood

by Theodore Isidore Humidor.

You've drawn every bird in the Kingdom?

The fluted gloat owl?

Page 47.

The speckled nard?

Page 213.

The pestering face finch?

Page 179.

Spring and winter plumage.

I've drawn them all, except one.

The most elusive bird in all of Jollywood,

the shiffle-nosed nergendingslinger.

Gesundheit! No, thank you.

It's only in Jollywood once every 10 years.

And then only for one day to bathe in the soothing waters

at the base of Mount Jollywood

before continuing its migration to Flerbinia

thousands of miles away!

And, according to my calculations,

today is that day.

So I told Uncle Humi,

I said, Uncle Humi, do you know

who knows that area better than anyone?

The 7D!

And they would love to take you there, right?

You mean we get to go on an adventure with you?

Well, I suppose it is an adventure.

Shall we?

¶ We're going on an adventure ¶

¶ We're going on an adventure ¶

Then let's be off!

The shiffle-nosed nergendingslinger awaits!

We'll take the tubes.

Capital idea.

¶ He's Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle ¶

¶ Uncle Humidor ¶

Nyah!

Oh! Whee!

Behold!

Would you like to come too, Stickybottom?

Oh! Yes!

I-I would!

Good. Can carry my trunks.

Oh! Fun.

Cats and jammies!

There it is!

The shiffle-nosed nergendingslinger!

Whew!

Confound it, old man.

Keep it down.

If it hears anything, it might fly away.

Oh!

Sorry!

Well, no time like the present.

Best get sketching before it flies off

and I have to wait another 10 years.

Of course you can draw, too.

You can document the day Theodore Isidore Humidor

sketched his last bird.

Oh, ponger doops!

Come here, darling, I'm not going to hurt you!

I could never get close enough

to get a good drawing of it.

The bird kept scampering away!

But luckily, I brought along something that would help.

I just needed Grumpy's assistance.

What am I doing again?

You're going to lure the bird over

by pretending to be a nergendingslinger chick in need.

Then, when it comes over to investigate your sad whimpers,

I'll sketch it from behind this bush.

Sad whimpers. Got it.

Doesn't sound much like a bird.

You got to be more like a birdie.

Ou know, chirp and cheep, grab the worms,

and you tuck your feathers in, lift up your leg,

something like that.

Chirp, cheep. Chirp, cheep.

Throw in a limp, like you're injured.

Oh, chirp, uh, cheep.

Oh, pretend one of your wings is floppy.

Chirp, cheep.

Grab your belly like you have a tummy ache.

Chirp, cheep.

What was in that worm?

Pretend you have pink eye.

Now you stay out of this.

It's working.

Louder.

Chirp, cheep.

Chirp, cheep.

Good heavens.

What luck.

It's a whole nergendingslinger family.

Hey, put me down!

Whoa!

Well, that was unexpected.

Last time, let me go!

Grumpy, are you all right?

They think I'm their chick or something.

They won't let me go!

Take off your costume.

I can't reach the buttons in back with these wings!

All right. Ll come and get you.

But I don't want to scare them off!

There, there now.

I'm not going to hurt you.

Just put down the Grumpy.

That was also unexpected.

What are we gonna do?

I know what will work, I got this.

Okay, as Queen of Jollywood,

I hereby decree that you release Grumpy.

In my job, I've learned how to get folks to do what I want.

You just need to be firm, determined,

unwilling to compromise.

And you need to be willing to scream.

We decided to go in as a group.

It didn't work even a little bit.

No, it didn't.
