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."

Hi, Brave Heart. How's the harvest going?

Great, Tenderheart.

Our Thanksgiving harvest is all packed

and ready for transport up to Care-a-Lot.

Where are Hugs and Tugs? I'll take them back.

Yay! Tenderheart.

There you are.

We have to get back to Care-a-Lot.

We wouldn't want to miss Grams Bear's arrival.

Or her happy apple pie.

Mmm! Mmm!

Tenderheart: All set? Here we go.

See you soon, Brave Heart.

Hi, Share Bear. Where are you going?

Down to Earth to help a boy named Tony.

Good luck. Try not to be too long

because Grams Bear is on her way.

Okay.

I can hardly wait.

Bye! Hugs and Tugs: Good-bye!

What a pretty town.

It's good to see everyone

getting ready to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Tony should be around here somewhere.

Man on P.A.: Come on, everyone.

Get your free Thanksgiving crabby apple pies.

They're irresistible.

Crabby apple pies?

Mmm.

Well, they certainly do smell irresistible.

Maybe I'll just try one...

Uh, after I help Tony.

Not only will my pies

turn this happy town into a crabby town,

but I can get rid of a few Care Bears, too.

That's something even

the great and powerful No Heart has failed to do.

I'll cook up something really special just for them.

Hello there.

Free pies for Thanksgiving.

Why, that's a wonderful gesture, Mister, uh...

Sour Sam.

You've never tasted a pie like this, Mr. Mayor.

Awful!

Everything is awful!

Out of my way!

I knew you'd like it, Mr. Mayor.

Hi, Tony.

You're-- you're a Care Bear.

Share Bear to be exact.

I thought you might need a little help.

Boy, do I ever.

The mayor picked me to give a speech in the park today

about the meaning of Thanksgiving.

It's our favorite time of year.

But, well...

I just don't know how to put my feelings into words.

Well, let's just talk about Thanksgiving,

and maybe that will help.

When you think of Thanksgiving,

what comes to mind?

The beautiful autumn colors?

Or the warmth of families and friends getting together?

Hi, everybody!

What? Hey!

Hey, Lotsa Heart.

on headphones ]

Oh, uh-- ha ha-- hi, Tenderheart.

Hi.

Listen, everybody.

Everything has to be just perfect for Grams Bear.

Nice and clean and quiet,

just the way she likes it.

So she can nap in her own brass bed

and rock in her own rocking chair and--

What's that racket?

Look.

All: Whoa!

Whoa!

We're being invaded,

a-and that's the truth.

How's it going, kids?

Grams Bear?

Grams Bear! Grams Bear! Grams Bear! Grams Bear!

Hello, my darlings.

Is that your cloud scooter, Grams Bear?

Sure is.

I'll take you out for a little spin later.

Yippee! Yippee!

Oh, goody, goody, gosh! Oh, goody, goody, gosh!

Why don't you two show Grams Bear her room?

Okay! Here's my bag.

I thought I told everyone:

no loud .

I'm sorry, Grams Bear.

Huh?

Wow! Look at her move!

Yahoo!

Come on, Bears, let's dance.

Yippee!

Lotsa Heart. Grumpy.

Stop!

Why, Tenderheart, you old fuddy-duddy.

Relax and have some fun.

Uh, but, Grams--

You're only as old as you feel, you know,

and I feel great.

But the Grams Bear I know is quiet

and likes to take naps

and rock in a rocking chair.

She never used to act this way.

Thanks for trying, Share Bear,

but I still can't seem to describe

my feelings about Thanksgiving.

Don't give up, Tony.

You'll find a way.

Share Bear: My goodness.

Where's he going in such a hurry?

And where has everyone else gone?

Excuse me? Mrs. Smith?

Where is everybody?

They're at home, that's where!

Oh, my!

Hey! Mr. Armstrong!

What happened? Where is everyone?

Go away! I want to be alone!

But what about the Thanksgiving Festival?

Don't you care?

I don't care about anything or anyone!

Something very strange is going on here.

Look.

There's the mayor.

Mr. Mayor! Mr. Mayor!

What do you want?

What's happening?

Everybody was all ready for Thanksgiving--

I called it off!

Why?

Because no one in town wants to celebrate anything!

Now go away!

Thanksgiving's been cancelled?

Don't worry, Tony.

We'll get to the bottom of this

with a little help from the Care Bears.

I'll send a signal to Care-a-Lot.

It's too late to help this town.

Everyone's gone home

just as crabby and miserable

as my crabby apple pies.

Boy, Grams Bear can really dance,

and that's the truth.

That's not our Grams Bear in there.

The Grams Bear I know and love

wouldn't be dancing to that .

She's not dancing to it, she's playing it!

Oh.

Grams Bear.

Why did you change?

I didn't change, Tenderheart.

I just decided to have a good time,

that's all.

But I like the old Grams Bear.

I'm still the old Grams Bear inside.

Just a little peppier.

Oh.

Lotsa Heart: Look, everybody!

A Care Bear Alert!

Tenderheart: Share must need some help.

Well, let's get down there.

No, Grams Bear, you stay here.

Uh, I mean,

you never know what might happen down there and--

All right, Tenderheart.

Hugs and Tugs and I will stay behind

and whip up some-- - tacos.

Tacos?

What happened to happy apple pie?

Lotsa Heart: Oh, come on, you old fuddy-duddy.

Why, Brave Heart,

what are you doing here?

We saw the Care Bear Alert and came right away.

This town is deserted.

Everyone's gone inside.

They're grumpier than, uh, you know who.

Where's Share Bear?

I don't know. Let's split up and find her.

Right. We'll meet back here.

Ha ha ha!

This crabby apple pie is so crabby,

it'll make even the Care Bears stop caring.

Ha ha ha!

A little slice here,

and a little slice there.

It will be irresistible.

Ah.

Mmm.

Hmm.

The others should have been back by now.

What's this?

It sure smells terrific.

There's Tenderheart.

Huh?

Go away!

Tenderheart?

Look.

Brave Heart.

What's wrong with them?

I don't know.

It's like they're under some kind of nasty spell.

Very good, Share Bear.

And soon the whole world will be that way.

And then no Thanksgiving,

no caring,

and no Care Bears Family.

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

Mmm! Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!

Mmm!

Is this tacos, Grams Bear?

No, Baby Tugs, it's gingerbread.

I'm getting a little worried.

Maybe we should see what's keeping the others.

And bring 'em a treat, Grams Bear?

Good idea, little one.

I've got just the thing.

Happy apple pie! Yay! Happy apple pie! Yay!

Now get cleaned up, and we'll be on our way.

[ Hugs and Tugs

I hope they're not in any trouble.

I have a hunch that whoever did this

also stopped the town from caring.

Right again. Ha ha!

And after you taste some of my crabby apple pie,

you and your furry friend

will be too crabby to care about it. Ha ha ha!

Grams: Share Bear! Share Bear!

Grams Bear?

Grams Bear? Ha!

You may be the only one who can foil me

and my plans to destroy Thanksgiving,

but I won't give you the chance.

That was fun, Grams.

Now, Share, what seems to be the trouble?

Oh, my.

I see things are worse than I thought.

The whole town is like this,

crabby and miserable.

What can we do?

Hugs! Tugs! Stop!

Both: What's wrong, Grams Bear?

That pie.

Hmm.

Oh! Just as I thought.

It's crabby apple pie.

If Hugs and Tugs had taken one bite,

they'd be just like the others.

There's only one man sour enough

to cook up a pie like this.

Sour Sam.

Sour Sam the pieman? Of course!

What can we do?

You have to fight pies with pies.

A pie fight, Grams Bear?

Oh, goody, goody!

Not yet, Tugs.

If there's anything that can break

Sour Sam's crabby apple pie spell,

it's happy apple pie.

Happy apple pie.

The one thing that can stop me.

But I'm ready for you this time, Grams Bear.

Okay, Tenderheart.

Come on, dear. Open up.

It's working, Grams Bear! It's working!

Grams: That's it, dear.

There.

Huh?

Whoa! Oh!

Uhh.

It's Sour Sam!

Quick! After him!

Sam: Yes, Grams Bear.

With you and your pesky little pies out of my way,

nothing can stop me from turning the whole world crabby

and destroying Thanksgiving.

You'll never get away with this, Sour Sam.

Sam: Oh, yes, I will.

Grams: Oh, no, you won't.

Hold on, everybody.

All: Whoa!

Cubs: Yahoo!

Share Bear, wait for me!

There he is!

Hold on!

All: Whoa!

The cubs! They've broken off!

What?

Whoo! This is fun!

Hugs! Tugs! Come back here!

Wheeee! Wheeee!

Got it!

Now stay there.

Now we've got 'em!

Share Bear: Whoa!

Oh, no!

All: Whoa!

Wow! That was fun!

Can we do it again?

Come on out, Grams,

and see my crabby apple pie factory.

The only thing I want to see

is you behind bars, Sour Sam.

You're too nice, Grams Bear.

Perhaps a crabby apple pie

will improve your attitude.

This is ghastly.

Sam: I can make enough pies here

to keep everyone in the world mean and crabby.

It will destroy Thanksgiving forever.

Well, your evil plan won't work,

you sour old coot.

Not while I'm around to make my happy apple pie.

Or my happy apple tart.

Take these.

You're sneaky, Grams Bear.

But I'm sneakier. Ha!

Whoa!

My word!

And now for my pièce de résistance.

Coming up: Grams Bear pie deluxe.

Share: Hold it right there, Sour Sam!

You've made your last pie.

Huh?

That's what you think, Share Bear.

Oh!

Four, three, two, one.

Care Bear Stare!

What? Oh, no!

Two can play at this game.

Take this, Share Bear.

Watch out!

All: Whoa!

Look out, Share Bear!

Oh, for goodness' sakes!

All: Grams Bear!

We've got to save Grams Bear.

I know, Hugs.

Hey!

I think I know how.

Oh, dear!

Let's see.

I found it!

Hugs and Tugs: Yay! Grams Bear!

Oh, Sour Sam?

Huh? Uhh!

I'll get you for this, Grams Bear.

Everyone, keep your mouths shut and fire away.

Three, two, one, fire!

Gee. What's going on?

Hugs? Tugs?

Fire!

Share Bear, where's Grams Bear?

Is she all right?

Tenderheart.

That's quite enough, Sour Sam.

Huh?

Take this!

Oh, no!

Aah!

Uhh!

Oh, no!

Now, four parts sweetness,

an extra dose of love.

So, Sour Sam,

how do you like my happy apple pie?

Yecch!

Get it off of me!

I don't like to be nice.

It looks like Sour Sam

won't be cooking up any more nasty schemes for a while.

Wow. You were terrific, Grams Bear.

I didn't know you had it in you.

Oh, so you don't mind me acting a little different

once in a while, hmm, Tenderheart?

I'm sorry, Grams Bear.

I guess I was just used to the old you.

Well, now you know that no matter how I act,

I'll always love and care for all of you just as much.

People can change, Tenderheart.

But what never changes

is the love and caring that families feel for one another.

That's it!

That's what Thanksgiving's all about!

And if we don't do something soon,

Thanksgiving will be over before it even starts.

Grams Bear, can we use Sour Sam's machine

to make enough happy apple pies

to change the town back?

I'm afraid there's not enough time.

Then it's up to you, Tony.

You're our only hope.

Me? How?

I'll explain on the way.

Okay, Tony, now's the time

to share the meaning of Thanksgiving with everyone.

I'll try.

Uh, Thanksgiving

is not the beautiful colors of autumn,

and it's not the gift of plenty,

the food and the laughter.

It's not just family and friends getting together.

Thanksgiving is sharing.

Sharing all your feelings of love and happiness

with everyone around you.

But most of all,

Thanksgiving is a time we give thanks

for being able to share

all the caring in the world today.

All: Hooray! Hooray!

That was wonderful, Tony.

I knew you could do it, Tony.

Thanks, Share Bear.

All: Bye!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Bears: Happy Thanksgiving!
