    Long, long ago...
[01:38] Narrator
    In a "long, long ago" recent enough that
    it could very well seem like tomorrow...
[01:43] Narrator
    A girl came from a dreamland
    far beneath the ocean.
[01:48] Narrator
    Her goal was supposed to be
    to restore the lost dreams
[01:54] Narrator
    to the people of the surface...
[01:56] Narrator
    But would it work out?
[01:59] Narrator
    Oh, right! And her name was Minky Momo!

    "Wish Upon a Star."
[02:11] Rep
    This is video taken 30 years ago
[02:13] Rep
    of the Hiller Shooting Stars
    observed in this region.
[02:18] Rep
    When the Hiller Comet passes near Earth
[02:20] Rep
    part of it turns to particles
    which burn up in the atmosphere,
[02:24] Rep
    visible as shooting stars.
[02:26] Rep
    The Hiller Comet is now coming back to
    Earth for the first time in thirty years.
[02:31] Rep
    It will likely be observed in three days.
[02:34] Rep
    Yes, in three days, you'll be
    able to see an incredible number
[02:37] Rep
    of shooting stars lighting up the night sky.
[02:41] Momo
    It's in three days!
[02:46] Momo
    Papa, Mama!
[02:47] Momo
    Will we be able to see the Hiller
    Shooting Stars from here?
[02:50] Papa
    Yes, I think so.
[02:53] Margaret
    Yes, we'll be able to see a number of them!
[02:57] Margaret
    If you look out to sea, they'll
    be absolutely beautiful!
[03:01] Papa
    Wait, are you...
[03:03] Mama
    Maggie?!
[03:04] Margaret
    Yes, Margaret Lorelle.
[03:09] Momo
    What?!
[03:10] Momo
    You used to live here, Maggie?
[03:13] Margaret
    Yes. I'd heard the park and the
    Stickaround Inn had gone to seed,
[03:18] Margaret
    but I'm glad to see they're just
    the way they were back then.
[03:22] Mama
    I'm so glad to hear you say that.
[03:24] Mama
    Right, dear?
[03:25] Papa
    Yes. As your successors,
[03:28] Papa
    we take our job of protecting the
    Stickaround Inn very seriously!
[03:32] Momo
    Hey, hey.
[03:33] Momo
    Does that mean you saw the shooting
    stars here thirty years ago?
[03:36] Margaret
    Of course I did!
[03:59] Margaret
    Actually, Momo, I came to watch the
    shooting stars from here again.
[04:05] Momo
    Really? I'm super-duper excited for it too!
[04:09] King
    Dee-da! I'm so jealous!
[04:12] King
    We don't get falling stars in Marinarsa!
[04:15] King
    No falling down, falling out, or
    falling short in your at-bat, either!
[04:18] Queen
    A shower of shooting stars
    every thirty years...
[04:22] Queen
    It must be very beautiful!
[04:24] King
    We don't have a rain of stars, just starfish!
[04:28] King
    Ow, ow, ow!
[04:29] King
    That hurts, that hurts!
[04:32] Queen
    No hail, either.
[04:37] Margaret
    I'm sure it was somewhere around here...
[04:45] Margaret
    Thank goodness, it's here!
[04:52] Momo
    Delicious!
[04:54] Margaret
    Let's make them into jam later!
[04:57] Margaret
    There must be other herbs
    and edible plants around.
[05:01] Momo
    Tell me, tell me!
[05:07] Momo
    Yahoo!
[05:10] Momo
    Yahoo!
[05:36] Margaret
    If you boil it too long, it over-thickens
    and you lose the flavor.
[05:39] Margaret
    If you don't boil it long enough,
    it ends up watery and fragile.
[05:43] Margaret
    Knowing when to turn the
    heat off is the real trick.
[05:46] Mama
    Yes, yes. I see!
[05:49] (Flashback) Kid
    Mama! Mama!
[05:52] (Flashback) Kid
    Come here! It's amazing!
[05:58] (Flashback) Kid
    Look!
[06:19] (Flashback) Dad
    Take a good look, everyone!
[06:21] (Flashback) Dad
    The next time we'll see these shooting
    stars will be in thirty years!
[06:25] (Flashback) Margaret
    I'll be an old woman by then.
[06:26] (Flashback) Dad
    And I'll be an old man.
[06:28] (Flashback) Girl
    Mama, let's come back here
    to see the stars then!
[06:32] (Flashback) Boy
    Stupid. You can't know where
    we'll be that far in the future!
[06:36] (Flashback) Girl
    What? Fine, I won't invite you then!
[06:41] (Flashback) Girl
    Please, Mama, let's promise!
[06:42] (Flashback) Girl
    You too, Papa! And Big Brother!
[06:45] (Flashback) Man
    I'll be here, but I'll feel bad for Thomas.
[06:51] (Flashback) Dad
    Stop that, you two.
[06:54] (Flashback) Dad
    Let's make a promise, then.
[06:56] (Flashback) Dad
    In thirty years, we'll come back to this
    spot and watch the shooting stars together.
[07:01] (Flashback) Dad
    How about it?
[07:02] (Flashback) Girl
    Sure!
[07:03] (Flashback) Man
    Okay!
[07:07] (Flashback) Thomas
    I guess I will too, then.
[07:19] Margaret
    Back then, we had no idea that
    we'd really see this day again.
[07:24] Momo
    Does that mean your children
    will show up here soon too?
[07:39] Papa
    Are we getting other guests, dear?
[07:43] Mama
    Oh, no.
[07:44] Mama
    Not to brag, but Maggie's our
    only guest all this week.
[07:49] Mama
    That means we can really go all-out for her!
[07:52] Lupi
    I'm sure they'll come! There's no one
    else staying at the Stickaround Inn.
[07:56] Lupi
    They'll be able get rooms
    even without reservations!
[07:59] Momo
    Yeah. I hope you're right.
[08:10] Momo
    Maggie?
[08:17] Momo
    Maggie. Would you like hot
    milk with lots of honey?
[08:21] Maggie
    Oh, it looks like the Stickaround
    Inn's service really has improved.
[08:30] Maggie
    It's delicious.
[08:35] Maggie
    My children won't be coming.
[08:38] Momo
    What?
[08:39] Maggie
    I didn't tell anyone I was coming here.
[08:43] Momo
    Why not?
[08:44] Maggie
    The year after the shooting stars, our
    family left the Stickaround Inn behind.
[08:52] Maggie
    My husband, Pierre, died,
[08:54] Maggie
    and I couldn't run the inn by myself.
[09:02] Maggie
    At first, it was as if the town
    came and went without seasons.
[09:06] Maggie
    But springs, summers, and
    winters came, until...
[09:11] (Flashback) Catherine
    Mama, I'm sorry.
[09:13] (Flashback) Catherine
    I have to be with him!
[09:17] (Flashback) Maggie
    Catherine!
[09:23] (Flashback) Thomas
    I'm gonna become a photographer.
    I've made up my mind.
[09:26] Thomas
    In the end, I was the one who
    failed to notice the seasons.
[09:31] Thomas
    The coming of spring, the
    colorful leaves in the streets,
[09:35] Thomas
    the snow falling on the roofs...
[09:37] Thomas
    They all passed outside my
    window as if they didn't exist.
[09:42] (Flashback) David
    What's that? First I've heard of it!
[09:45] (Flashback) David
    Fine, I'll be back soon.
[09:47] (Flashback) David
    Just hold it all. Got it?
[09:50] (Flashback) David
    They're all totally useless. Darn it!
[09:53] (Flashback) Maggie
    You're leaving already?
[09:54] (Flashback) Maggie
    You just got here, though...
[09:56] (Flashback) David
    Sorry, Mom.
[09:59] (Flashback) David
    I'll stay longer next time.
[10:02] Maggie
    The next thing I knew, I was all alone.
[10:06] Maggie
    That's when I heard the rumors that the
    Stickaround Inn had been abandoned,
[10:11] Maggie
    and gone to seed.
[10:16] Maggie
    Momo. Do you believe in fairies?
[10:19] Momo
    Huh? Y-Yes.
[10:24] Maggie
    There's a legend that this park is a
    focal point for the power of dreams.
[10:30] Maggie
    I've definitely caught sight of
    fairies in the park's forest myself.
[10:36] Maggie
    But...
[10:37] Maggie
    For some reason, I couldn't sense them today.
[10:42] Maggie
    Perhaps, as you grow older, you lose
    your ability to see the power of dreams.
[10:48] Momo
    Maggie...
[10:53] Lupi
    The fairies that Maggie saw...
[10:56] Chamo
    You think they were Mr. Starlight and
    the others who used to live here?
[10:59] Momo
    I think so, yeah.
SIGN    But you can't see them now, because they lost the
SIGN    power of dreams that let them materialize.
[11:11] Momo
    The power of dreams was still
    around when Maggie lived here.
SIGN    And Maggie herself was here, too.
SIGN    I'm sure she came here to get that back.
[11:24] Momo
    What about their promise to
    see the shooting stars again?
SIGN    Maggie's children are all grown up now.
SIGN    They have their own lives to live.
[11:33] Momo
    I don't accept that!
[11:34] Momo
    Those stars went all around the universe
[11:38] Momo
    for thirty years and came
    right back to this planet!
[11:40] Lupi
    Maggie said she didn't
    tell them she was coming!
[11:45] Chamo
    They might have just forgotten!
[11:47] Momo
    That's right! Now it's Momo's turn!
[11:54] Momo
    Let's go to Maggie's address!
    It was in the hotel's logbook!
[12:05] Momo
    Here it is!
[12:07] Catherine
    Grandma?
[12:08] Catherine
    Oh, who are you?
[12:10] Momo
    Um, is this Maggie's house?
[12:14] Judy
    What? What happened to Grandma?
[12:15] Judy
    Where is she?
[12:16] Judy
    Take me to her! Right now!

[12:31] Judy
    I see.
[12:33] Judy
    I called and she wasn't picking up,
[12:35] Judy
    so I got worried and came to check on her.
[12:37] Momo
    Judy, please tell your mother about Maggie.
[12:42] Judy
    No problem!
[12:43] Judy
    Or so I'd like to say, but then she'd know
    I slipped out to visit Grandma's house.
[12:49] Momo
    Slipped out?
[12:50] Judy
    When my mom married my dad,
[12:53] Judy
    she had to run away from home to
    do it against Grandma's wishes.
[12:57] Judy
    It would be awkward if
    they saw each other again.
[13:01] Judy
    Mama and Grandma are both stubborn
    and stuck in their ways.
[13:05] Judy
    That's genetics, right?
[13:07] Judy
    I might be the same way!
[13:10] Judy
    No, no!
[13:11] Judy
    You've gotta sever that bad blood!
[13:14] Judy
    Momo! Leave Mama to me!
[13:24] David
    I'm David. Are you the one
    from the Stickaround Inn?
[13:27] Momo
    Yes!
[13:28] David
    How can I help you?
[13:30] David
    Sorry, but I'm in a bit of a hurry.
[13:32] David
    Keep it short, would you?
[13:34] TV
    The Hiller Shooting Stars
    will be arriving tomorrow.
[13:38] TV
    Astronomy fans and ordinary people
    of all stripes are gathering
[13:42] TV
    to prepare for this
    once-in-a-generation celestial show.
[13:48] David
    The Hiller Shooting Stars, eh?
[13:51] David
    I do remember making that promise.
[13:55] Momo
    You can't go?
[13:57] David
    I'm afraid I have to put
    together an important deal.
[14:01] David
    I feel bad for my mother, but I
    can't get out of the commitment.
[14:31] Woman
    Are you here to see Thomas?
[14:32] Momo
    Yes. He doesn't seem to be here.
[14:35] Woman
    Oh, he's not here.
[14:36] Woman
    He's overseas.
[14:38] Woman
    He's been gone for six months now.
[14:42] Momo
    Six months?
[15:25] TV
    The Hiller Shooting Stars are this evening.
[15:29] TV
    Unfortunately, we're seeing cloud
    cover all over the country.
[15:32] TV
    It's uncertain if we'll be able
    to see the shooting stars at all.
[16:53] Maggie
    Thank you, Momo.
[17:11] Lupi
    We haven't heard anything from Judy, either.
SIGN    Maybe it's better that we can't see the shooting stars.
[17:19] Chamo
    No, that's not fair!
[17:20] Momo
    Yeah, it's not!
[17:23] All
    Momo!
[17:27] Momo
    I want Maggie to see it at least...
[17:29] Momo
    Not this kind of rain,
    but a rain of starlight!
[17:33] Momo
    At least for tonight!
[17:42] Chamo
    The rain's stopping!
[17:44] Momo
    Please, blast the clouds away!
SIGN    It's not working. That's the best Momo's magic can do.
[18:04] Momo
    Oh, no...
[18:07] Lupi
    Look at that!
[18:20] Lupi
    Okay...
[18:34] Momo
    I did it!
[18:39] Margaret
    This is...
[18:46] Judy
    Grandma!
[18:49] Margaret
    Judy?
[18:50] Judy
    I stopped by.
[18:51] Judy
    It's amazing that you were
    born and raised here.
[18:54] Judy
    I'm so jealous, Mama!
[18:56] Margaret
    What?
[19:08] Margaret
    Catherine?
[19:35] David
    Here, we can take a rest at
    this hotel and talk about work.
[19:39] Man
    Yes, that's quite good. An
    old-fashioned building, my favorite.
[19:51] David
    Thomas!
[19:53] Thomas
    Hey!
[19:54] Thomas
    Rare for you to remember a
    promise like this, Big Bro!
[19:58] Lupi
    Thomas remembered, too!
[20:00] Momo
    He sure did!
[20:04] King
    So good, so good, la-dee-da!
[20:06] King
    They're all back together, la-dee-da!
[20:08] King
    Yes, just like the shooting stars,
[20:10] King
    they returned to the Stickaround Inn thirty
    years later just like they promised!
[20:14] King
    Yeah!
[20:17] Momo
    Look!
[21:05] Margaret
    Pierre... You came, too.
[21:09] Pierre
    I made a promise, after all.
[21:11] Pierre
    But it's just for tonight.
[21:34] Momo
    Mr. Starlight and everyone!
[21:53] Margaret
    You all came, too...
[21:57] Margaret
    No, you've always been here.
[22:00] Margaret
    I just didn't see you.
[22:15] Momo
    Wish upon a star.
[22:17] Momo
    We'll meet again. I know it.
