Care Bears: Care Bears Countdown.

Four, three, two, one.

Who's that comin' from somewhere up in the sky?

Movin' fast and bright as a firefly

Just when you think that trouble's gonna pounce

Who's gonna be there when it really counts?

Do that Care Bears Countdown

And send a wish out through the air

And send a wish out through the air

Just do that Care Bears Countdown

Just when you need 'em, they'll be there

Just when you need 'em, they'll be there...

Don't be afraid when clouds are brewin' in your heart

If you can dream, just send a wish out in the dark

And do that Care Bears Countdown.

Five, four, three, two, one.

Announcer: And now back to "The Care Bears."

This is gonna be great.

I wonder who's gonna get picked.

Good Luck Bear: I'm feeling lucky today.

I'm so bad.

Ow.

Ow!

True Heart: All right...

it's time once again for the annual.

Care Bear Family Obstacle Race.

Oh.

In this basket are the names

of all the Care Bear Family.

Noble Heart Horse will draw

this year's six lucky winners.

And with me as one of the contestants--

Yeouch!

I'm a cinch to win the race.

And remember, whoever wins the race

gets to be king or queen

of the Kingdom of Caring

for a whole day.

King Beastly.

I like the sound of that.

And the first name is...

Lotsa Heart Elephant!

Hooray!

Yippee! Yahoo!

I'm in! I'm in!

Ooh, I could be king of the Kingdom of Caring.

Hmm, don't get your hopes up, Lotsa.

A turtle with two left feet could beat you.

I may be slow, Swift Heart,

but I'm gonna try and try,

and that's the truth.

Our second contestant is...

Cheer Bear! Hooray!

If I win today's race,

I promise to decorate all of Care-a-Lot

in pretty pink ruffles and frills!

Noble Heart: Our third contestant is...

Funshine Bear!

That's me!

Our fourth contestant is...

Friend Bear!

Thank you, thank you.

Upon taking the throne,

I promise to uphold all the traditions

of the Care Bear Challenge.

Our fifth and second-to-last contestant is...

Mr. Beastly.

Mr. Beastly!

Huh?

Beastly: Oh, boy, oh, boy.

I will be king.

I am the greatest!

No fair. How did Beastly's name get in there?

Yeah. Mr. Beastie's not

a member of the Care Bear Family.

He's a bad guy.

And proud of it.

I'll do anything to win.

He's not going to run in our race.

Oh, yeah?

Well, rules are rules.

And the rules say, and I quote,

"Any name or names that are picked from this here bowl"

are forthwith and without forthwith

and without a second thought

"allowed in the Care Bear Family Obstacle Race."

Unquote.

What does that mean?

It means that,

bad guy or no bad guy,

we have to let Beastly race.

Hmm.

But if Beastly becomes king for a day,

we'll have to obey his every command.

He could make us eat mud pies.

Or broccoli.

And that's just for starters.

And when I win,

I'm gonna move Care-a-Lot.

Move Care-a-Lot?

Where?

Right next to No Heart's castle.

That's where. What?

We can't let him get away with this.

Care-a-Lot will be ruined.

Everyone calm down.

There's still one more contestant

left to be picked.

If we're lucky, it'll be Swift Heart Rabbit.

Yeah.

She's the fastest runner on two feet.

Cross your fingers, gang.

And our final contestant is...

Hex! Whammy! Jinx, jinx, jinx!

I can't look. Hex, hex!

True Heart.

Our final contestant is... Jinx, hex! Jinx, jinx!

Oh...

Swift Heart Rabbit.

Fix, fix!

I demand a redraw.

Sorry, Beastly. Swift Heart's name was drawn fair and square.

Yeah, rules are rules.

Hah!

Oops!

All right.

The contestants will please complete

their final warm-ups,

then the race will begin.

Just wait 'til I tell No Heart

I'm going to be King Beastly.

The Care Bear Family Obstacle Race?

How nice.

I did it!

I did it!

I did it just like you said.

I tricked those cutesy Care Bears

and now I'm in the race.

Soon they'll be calling me king

and bringing me swamp water shakes.

Yummy, yummy.

Whoa!

No Heart: On your feet, Beastly!

I am counting on you to win, Beastly.

Do not fail me.

M-m-m-me fail?

Not a chance.

I'm in good shape.

I mean b-b-bad shape.

Because bad to us is good.

Watch.

As king for a day, the Care Bears

must do exactly as you say.

And as my assistant,

you must do exactly as I say.

Anything you say, No Heart.

Now get going and win.

Or else!

Four more. Three more.

Two more. Ow!

Enjoy this day while you can, Care Bears.

For I promise you that this day will be...

your last!

Ready, set, go!

Hey, Lotsa Heart?

Why are you all knocking yourselves out?

I'm gonna win this race.

The race isn't over 'til it's over, Swift Heart.

And that's the truth.

Hey, Beastly.

Your shirt's untucked.

Huh?

Oh, yeah?

Well, take a good look, Swift Heart.

The next time you see this shirt,

it'll be on the other side of the finish line.

Ha, I can beat you

with both feet tied behind my back.

And to prove it, I'm gonna give you a giant head start!

That Swift Heart is in for a big surprise.

Cheating is my specialty.

This cement ought to stiffen their chances.

Those Care Bears will never know

what hit them.

True Heart: Care Bears, Care Bear Cousins,

bad guy... Oh.

Take your marks.

Wait a minute.

Where's Swift Heart?

Come on. We're ready to start the race.

Well, don't let me stop you, Noble Heart.

I promised to give Beastly a giant head start.

Then I'm gonna make him eat my dust.

But, Swift Heart,

we're all counting on you to beat Beastly.

If he wins, he'll be king for a day.

And Care-a-Lot will be ruined.

Swift Heart: Don't worry.

Beastly won't win.

Swift Heart Rabbit is unbeatable!

That's what you think.

All right, racers.

Take your marks.

Get ready, get set...

go!

Faster, Lotsa Heart!

Faster!

I'm pacing myself, Brave Heart.

Slow and steady wins the race.

And that's the truth.

Oh, boy.

Hey, there's grease on this log.

Now who would do such a thing?

Whoa! Whoa!

Whoa!

That oughta slow 'em down.

Hey, what's going on? Oh, no!

Aha!

Nip.

Oh, that Beastly is cheating!

Well, we can't give up now.

Come on.

Oh, boy.

If I don't win this race,

No Heart will take me out of the running...

but good.

Oh, no.

Those darn Care Bears are quicker than I thought.

I'm gonna need more time

to set my traps.

That's it.

I'm so bad.

Now for a quick shortcut to trap number one.

Oops.

Wrong way.

Swift Heart, even I could win

with a head start like this.

Could you please get going?

I'm still warming up, True Heart.

You look warm enough to me.

Don't rush me.

Every muscle has to be perfectly limbered up.

I'll show that Beastly who's the fastest.

Hello, fellas. Hello, Lotsa!

Lotsa Heart!

We're going the wrong way!

See ya, fellas!

Boy, I must be making good time.

And that's the truth.

He's gotta catch up.

If Beastly wins this race, he'll become king.

And that'll be the end of Care-a-Lot.

Announcer: And now back to "The Care Bears."

Once I sideline the competition,

there will be no one to stop me.

Oh, boy, oh, boy.

My first catch of the day.

Beastly: One...

two...

Three.

Bombs away!

Whoa!

Gotcha!

Let me down!

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

One down, four to go.

Next stop,

trap number two.

Oops, silly me.

It's that way...

I think.

Oh, no, here they come.

Whee!

Catch, Funshine!

Got it!

Whee!

Made it. Whoops!

Beastly, get me out of here.

You-- you-- Bushwhacking bad guy!

Now is that any way

to talk to your future king?

I really should've drawn a map.

These shortcuts are confusing.

Now, Swift Heart?

Are you kidding?

With tight tummy muscles?

This cement will fix 'em good.

I mean bad.

'Cause I'm so bad.

Oh, boy, oh, boy.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Huh? Whoops!

Yuck!

H-hey, what's happening?

I-- I can't move.

Beastly, you won't get away with this.

Cheaters never win.

Then how come I'm in the lead?

Cheat all you want, Beastly.

You'll never stop Swift Heart.

Oh, yeah?

Oh, no!

I think that should stop Swift Heart for good.

One, two, three.

Now, Swift Heart?

All right, I guess I've given Beastly

a long enough head start.

Now it's time to feed Beastly some dust.

Hooray!

Hey, Lotsa, you better slow down.

I think I saw a speed trap up ahead.

Well, thanks for the tip, Swift Heart.

I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Oh, boy. Oh, boy.

The finish line should be just up ahead.

I can't lose.

Oh, no.

I'm almost back at the start!

I went the wrong way.

Here comes Swift Heart.

This'll stop him, guaranteed.

It's gotta work.

It'd better work.

Uh-oh!

It didn't work.

Huh?

Beastly: Uh-oh.

I've gotta stop Swift Heart.

If I lose, I'll have to keep right on running...

from...

No Heart.

This'll work.

It's gotta work.

Please work.

Oh...

It worked!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Yeow!

Go, Swift Heart, go!

Swift Heart!

Beastly: Yeow-ow-ow-ow-ow!

Whoa!

No!

Whoa, whoa!

Yeeeow!

Faster, Swift Heart! It's a trap!

Whoop!

Beastly: Oh, no!

Not the wall!

Swift Heart: Nice try, Beastly.

But like I said,

Swift Heart Rabbit is unbeatable!

Yeow!

Oh, boy. Oh, boy!

I beat Swift Heart, now I'm gonna be king.

You didn't beat me, Beastly.

I beat myself.

And I let everyone down.

Oh, boy. Oh, boy!

As soon as I cross the finish line,

I'll make the Care Bears move Care-a-Lot.

No, first I'll make 'em eat mud.

No, first I'll make 'em roll in the mud,

then eat it!

No, even better--

Hi, fellas.

Oh, hi, Lotsa.

How's it going?

Slow and steady.

But I'm almost there.

And that's the truth.

Now, where was I?

Oh, yeah.

First, I'll make 'em do belly flops in the mud,

then roll in it, then eat it.

Come on, Lotsa Heart!

Faster! Faster!

Now don't rush me.

I don't want to pull a muscle.

Oh, this is perfect.

I'll--

Lotsa Heart?

Oh, no!

Stop that pachyderm!

Go, Lotsa Heart, go!

Pour it on, Lotsa Heart!

Pour it on!

Slow and steady.

You wouldn't want me to trip, would you?

Come on! Come on!

I won?

I won!

I'm the greatest!

Dust off the throne!

I'm king for a day!

Ah, ah, ah, not so fast, Beastly.

It was a photo finish.

Gimme that.

True Heart: Lotsa Heart is the winner by a trunk.

No, I won fair and square.

Contestants: Fair and square? Ha!

Beastly, you cheated!

Hey, who are you gonna believe?

Them or me?

Well, uh-- heh, heh.

Listen, this has been fun,

but I gotta...

run!

No Heart, help!

If only Beastly ran that fast in the race.

He would've beat us both hands down.

Beastly: Oh, what am I going to do?

I can't tell No Heart I lost the race.

He'll clobber me.

I know.

I'll tell him I couldn't be king

because the crown was at the cleaners.

Nah, that'll never work.

No Heart: Beastly!

You called, No Heart?

Come closer.

I have something for you.

You mean...

you're not mad at me?

You did your best, Beastly.

And even though your best wasn't good enough,

I would like to present you with this.

A present for me?

Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.

What is it?

What is it?

Looks great!

And just my size, too.

It's something I've always wanted.

What is it?

A guarantee...

that next time you will be the winner of the race.

Huh?

Yikes!

And you have the whole year to practice.

I knew this was just too good to be true!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Everyone, I'd like to apologize.

Apologize?

Whatever for, Swift Heart?

For acting so cocky.

My overconfidence almost cost us the race

and all of Care-a-Lot.

And I wanna thank King Lotsa Heart

for beating Beastly

and for teaching me a valuable lesson.

It takes more than just speed to win a race.

It takes lotsa heart, and that's the truth.
