10
00:00:40,714 --> 00:00:42,950
There once lived...

11
00:00:43,051 --> 00:00:44,051
...a goose.

12
00:00:44,178 --> 00:00:46,085
A goose like any other.

13
00:00:46,272 --> 00:00:49,549
Only he was very envious.

14
00:00:49,736 --> 00:00:51,243
What?!

15
00:01:18,678 --> 00:01:20,061
Hello, goose!

16
00:01:21,369 --> 00:01:25,969
- Where are you off to?
- To another page.

17
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:31,028
He doesn't like it when
people tell the truth about him.

18
00:01:38,737 --> 00:01:41,511
What a neck!

19
00:01:45,727 --> 00:01:47,773
Swan, hey, swan,

20
00:01:48,347 --> 00:01:51,947
let's trade necks!

21
00:01:52,416 --> 00:01:55,880
- What do you mean "necks"?
- Very simple.

22
00:01:55,971 --> 00:02:00,910
I give you my neck,
and you give me yours.

23
00:02:01,081 --> 00:02:03,787
Yours is no good, anyway.

24
00:02:04,185 --> 00:02:07,220
- What do you mean "no good"?
- It's very simple:

25
00:02:07,357 --> 00:02:11,228
eat a fish today,
and you'll be full tomorrow.

26
00:02:11,785 --> 00:02:14,628
Well, let's trade - I'm in a hurry.

27
00:02:14,990 --> 00:02:18,403
I really don't know...
well, all right.

28
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:24,030
They traded necks.
The goose walked on.

29
00:02:35,334 --> 00:02:37,588
Now that's a nose!

30
00:02:38,290 --> 00:02:42,053
No longer a goose, but not yet a swan.

31
00:02:44,444 --> 00:02:48,404
Big deal!
I don't want to be a swan at all.

32
00:02:48,500 --> 00:02:49,930
Who, then?

33
00:02:50,947 --> 00:02:55,657
Let's trade noses, then you'll see.

34
00:02:55,761 --> 00:03:00,056
Interesting. But you'd better
untie yourself first,

35
00:03:00,150 --> 00:03:06,000
because you won't be able to
untie yourself later, with my nose.

36
00:03:29,704 --> 00:03:33,164
Bravo! Bravo!

37
00:03:33,672 --> 00:03:35,825
Beautiful!

38
00:03:36,084 --> 00:03:38,691
Hey, you, fly over here!

39
00:03:38,819 --> 00:03:41,522
I have business with you.

40
00:03:41,867 --> 00:03:44,573
Business? With me?

41
00:04:04,041 --> 00:04:08,648
Can't you fly?

42
00:04:09,635 --> 00:04:11,635
"Can't", "Can't"...

43
00:04:11,889 --> 00:04:14,749
Can you swim?

44
00:04:14,991 --> 00:04:20,131
Well, I'd be able to,
but my legs get in the way.

45
00:04:20,835 --> 00:04:22,550
Your legs get in the way?

46
00:04:23,514 --> 00:04:25,620
Hey, you know what?..

47
00:04:40,533 --> 00:04:42,767
Peacock, hey, peacock!

48
00:05:02,540 --> 00:05:06,971
Our goose became unlike anyone...

49
00:05:27,728 --> 00:05:31,230
I changed my neck, and nose, and tail,
Of course, for a reason.

50
00:05:31,492 --> 00:05:35,010
This goose was much too simple, once,
This goose was much too simple, once,

51
00:05:35,114 --> 00:05:40,228
This goose was much too simple, once,
Without a rainbow tail.

52
00:05:46,585 --> 00:05:50,157
Now this goose outshines everyone,
This goose outshines them all.

53
00:05:50,271 --> 00:05:54,030
All the birds, seeing my success,
All the birds, seeing my success,

54
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,828
All the birds, seeing my success,
Quite envy me. Let them!

55
00:06:05,294 --> 00:06:08,878
All of them envy me - let them!
I really am quite glad.

56
00:06:09,114 --> 00:06:12,900
The birds will all gasp "What a goose!"
The birds will all sigh "What a goose!"

57
00:06:13,028 --> 00:06:17,300
The birds will all quack "What a goose!"
When they see my attire!

58
00:06:29,814 --> 00:06:31,408
What a goose!

59
00:06:32,985 --> 00:06:34,285
What a goose!

60
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,187
What a goose!

61
00:06:40,778 --> 00:06:44,095
I don't see anything funny!

62
00:06:45,348 --> 00:06:48,901
Hey, why is everyone laughing?

63
00:06:49,412 --> 00:06:52,269
- What, you don't like it?
- No.

64
00:06:54,004 --> 00:06:55,924
Why don't you go to our wise owl

65
00:06:56,357 --> 00:07:00,120
and trade your stupidity
for her wisdom.

66
00:07:00,221 --> 00:07:03,131
Then no one will laugh at you.

67
00:07:03,261 --> 00:07:05,381
Why not? I'll go!

68
00:07:10,681 --> 00:07:12,961
Owl, hey, owl!

69
00:07:16,921 --> 00:07:18,068
Who's that?...

70
00:07:18,771 --> 00:07:22,226
- Ah, it's you, goose.
- Me.

71
00:07:22,751 --> 00:07:25,451
Owl, owl, let's trade!

72
00:07:25,709 --> 00:07:28,742
I'll give you my stupidity,

73
00:07:29,071 --> 00:07:31,574
and you give me your wisdom.

74
00:07:31,678 --> 00:07:33,985
Why would I need your stupidity?

75
00:07:34,085 --> 00:07:37,310
I'll share my wisdom with you for free.

76
00:07:37,423 --> 00:07:41,300
Well, if you're so very wise, tell me:

77
00:07:41,487 --> 00:07:44,217
Why does everyone laugh at me?

78
00:07:44,347 --> 00:07:46,604
No, you tell me first!

79
00:07:47,085 --> 00:07:50,400
- You traded necks with a swan?
- Uh-huh.

80
00:07:50,540 --> 00:07:54,214
- You traded noses with a pelican?
- Uh-huh.

81
00:07:54,353 --> 00:07:57,933
- Traded wings with a crow?
- Uh-huh.

82
00:07:58,411 --> 00:08:00,564
Traded legs with a crane?

83
00:08:02,071 --> 00:08:04,817
Finagled a tail from a peacock?

84
00:08:06,614 --> 00:08:10,880
And the rooster's comb
and "cock-a-doodle-doo" to boot?

85
00:08:16,007 --> 00:08:17,440
You laugh.

86
00:08:17,737 --> 00:08:21,997
So in your opinion,
did it make them better?

87
00:08:23,246 --> 00:08:24,953
"Better"?

88
00:08:25,435 --> 00:08:27,400
What a thing to say!

89
00:08:28,107 --> 00:08:32,240
That's why they don't show
their faces in public any more.

90
00:08:32,252 --> 00:08:35,313
And rightly so!

91
00:08:36,090 --> 00:08:37,535
What?!

92
00:08:37,929 --> 00:08:39,772
What did you say?

93
00:08:39,885 --> 00:08:42,557
"Don't show their faces"?

94
00:08:42,657 --> 00:08:47,560
I say that it's not
right for a smart bird

95
00:08:47,692 --> 00:08:51,485
to take pride in someone
else's feathers.

96
00:08:51,762 --> 00:08:55,089
So that's it!

97
00:08:55,946 --> 00:08:59,960
Our goose went back
and on the way home

98
00:09:00,085 --> 00:09:03,428
returned everything he had traded.

99
00:09:26,775 --> 00:09:31,389
Hello, goose! Ah, at last, now you
at least look like a real bird.

100
00:09:31,696 --> 00:09:34,403
- So, you gave everything back?
- Uh-huh.

101
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,023
Oh! I forgot to return
the owl's wisdom.

102
00:09:39,664 --> 00:09:42,750
Why would she need more wisdom?
She's smart already.

103
00:09:42,850 --> 00:09:46,728
Better keep that wisdom for
yourself - it'll come in handy.

104
00:09:46,828 --> 00:09:49,200
Heh, that's true!

105
00:09:49,737 --> 00:09:54,281
Have you ever met a
bird like this in your life?

106
00:09:54,970 --> 00:09:59,071
So you have.
Then let's close this page.

107
00:09:59,170 --> 00:10:01,427
The End
