    Long, long ago...
[01:38] Narrator
    In a "long, long ago" recent enough that
    it could very well seem like tomorrow...
[01:43] Narrator
    In a universe over there, in an Earth
    over there, in a city over there,
[01:47] Narrator
    there lived a girl.
[01:50] Narrator
    She looked like a completely normal
    girl of the kind you'd find anywhere.
[01:53] Narrator
    The one difference was...
[01:56] Narrator
    The girl could use magic to
    transform into a grown-up!
[02:00] Narrator
    They called her Minky Momo.

[02:20] News
    The finals of the Overthere Women's
    Open are really heating up!
[02:25] News
    Now, the number 16 short hole!
[02:33] News
    The ball's heading right for the pin, and...
[02:41] Chamo
    It went in!
[02:43] Pipi
    Hey, doesn't your father play golf, too?
[02:55] Papa
    It might look simple, but it's
    actually quite difficult!
[02:59] Momo
    Just drive already, Papa!
[03:02] Papa
    Let's not be hasty.
[03:04] Papa
    First, focus all your
    feelings into the ball...
SIGN    That's almost professional level.
[03:17] Momo
    You're so good, Papa!
[03:18] Momo
    You're like a pro golfer!
[03:21] Papa
    Well, I guess I've still got it.
[03:24] Momo
    Papa, will you let me try, too?
[03:26] Papa
    Oh, well...
[03:28] Papa
    Have you ever played golf before, Momo?
[03:31] Momo
    Nope.
[03:32] Momo
    But...
[03:33] Momo
    I just take this tiny little
    ball... do this, and...
[03:45] Papa
    Oh, dear!
[03:47] Lupi
    Don't get the ball in the hole, Momo!
[03:49] Lupi
    You need to hit it a bunch of
    times, like your father did!
SIGN    No, the more strokes you take in golf, the worse you've done.
[03:57] Lupi
    Wait, does that mean Momo's a prodigy?!
[04:01] Chamo
    Why not try to be a pro women's golfer, Momo?
[04:03] Momo
    A pro women's golfer?
[04:06] Momo
    Maybe I will!
[04:09] Papa
    I guess she could do it...
[04:16] Papa
    Of course, it's not that easy
    to become a professional golfer.
[04:21] Momo
    Papa, is the golf course that far away?
[04:23] Papa
    No, it's very close. We're almost there.
SIGN    Momo's hole-in-one really sent a shock through him.
[04:31] Lupi
    It sure did!
[04:45] Momo
    It's lovely!
[04:46] Papa
    This is my favorite clubhouse.
[04:48] Papa
    What the—
[04:59] Papa
    What just happened?!
[05:08] Papa
    What in the world is that shiny new thing?!
[05:10] Man
    Yahoo! It's the new clubhouse!
[05:13] Man
    Opening soon!
[05:14] Man
    Closed today!
[05:16] Man
    Too bad for you!
[05:18] Papa
    A new clubhouse?!
[05:20] Papa
    Who's behind this monstrosity?!
[05:28] Papa
    Hey, Mr. Mole! Where are you?
[05:31] Papa
    Where are you hiding?
[05:34] Momo
    We came all this way and
    we don't get to golf?
[05:37] Lupi
    Still, the walk is quite lovely.
[05:40] Chamo
    This is such a great golf course!
SIGN    Yeah. They even say that golf was born on this golfing range.
SIGN    Golf courses all over the world model themselves after this one.
[05:52] Chamo
    Is that true?
SIGN    I think Momo's father would know best of anybody.
[05:57] Lupi
    Her father? But why?
[06:01] Papa
    I smell something. Like smoke.
[06:03] Papa
    Is something burning?
[06:05] Momo
    I think it is smoke. Look!
[06:10] Lupi
    It's there! The smoke is coming from there!
[06:16] Chamo
    Some kind of underground fire?
[06:21] Papa
    Hey, Mr. Mole! Where are you?
[06:24] Mole
    Over here! I'm over here!
[06:29] Papa
    What are you doing over here?
[06:32] Mole
    I'm trying to get the moles to safety.
[06:35] Mole
    Hey, come out already!
[06:36] Mole
    You're gonna end up smoked.
[06:42] Mole
    Is that everyone?
[06:51] Momo
    They're all carrying golf balls.
[06:53] Papa
    The moles here are famous for
    collecting golf balls in one place.
[06:58] Momo
    Why?
[07:02] Lupi
    He says their mother mole told them to do it.
[07:06] Lupi
    Mother mole learned from Grandmother mole,
[07:08] Lupi
    and that grandmother mole
    learned from her mother!
[07:13] Mole
    In other words, the moles of Saint Petersen
    have a generational love of golf.
[07:17] Mole
    The locals here also love the moles.
[07:21] Mole
    With one exception...
[07:24] Mole
    Ah, speak of the devil.
[07:25] Mole
    They're here!
[07:32] Walder
    You filthy moles!
[07:34] Walder
    I'm going to drive every one of you out!
[07:38] Papa
    What kind of jerk drives
    his car on a golf course?!
[07:42] Mole
    That's Walder. He just
    bought the golf course.
[07:47] Papa
    So he's the one who tore down the clubhouse?
[07:50] Mole
    He wants to turn the golf course
    into a more high-class destination.
[07:55] Mole
    He considers the moles his mortal enemies.
[07:57] Mole
    He wants to drive the moles out and
    drown them... He's a very cruel man.
[08:02] Papa
    I see. So he's the one...
[08:05] Mole
    I intend to quit soon.
[08:07] Mole
    I refuse to work for that man!
[08:12] Moles
    He is our enemy!
[08:14] Moles
    We'll show him!
[08:28] Papa
    This is it.
[08:29] Momo
    Pictures of golfing?
[08:31] Mole
    Yes. They're ancient murals
    that your father discovered.
[08:36] Papa
    Yes, aren't they lively, beautiful murals?
[08:40] Papa
    Someone kicked a rock at random, and
    it ended up in the moles' hole...
[08:44] Papa
    We believe that's the origin of golf.
[08:47] Papa
    That's what the mural tells us.
[08:48] Mole
    Ever since, the humans and moles of Saint
    Petersen have lived together in harmony.
[08:56] Mole
    Look.
[08:56] Mole
    Saint Petersen has used the mole as the
    symbol of its golf range for all that time.
SIGN    And over that long stretch of time,
SIGN    the moles here even evolved to collect golf balls?
[09:08] Lupi
    Friendship between humans and
    moles! What a beautiful thing!
[09:12] Chamo
    We can't let him drive the moles out!
[09:15] Momo
    We've got to protect the moles ourselves!
[09:19] Mole
    Well said!
[09:20] Papa
    Not just the moles. We have
    to protect our golf course!
[09:24] Papa
    We have to act fast, before it's too late!
[09:27] Mole
    Yes, you're right.
[09:30] Papa
    All right, sir. Bring everyone
    in the city together.
[09:33] Mole
    Okay, leave it to me!
[09:36] Mole
    Things are getting interesting now!
[09:48] Papa
    After everything we've said,
    you still won't listen?
[09:51] Walder
    I bought this golf course!
[09:53] Walder
    It's up to me what I do with it!
[09:56] Walder
    Get out of here! You don't get a say in it!
[10:00] Mayor
    I am the mayor of Saint Petersen.
[10:04] Mayor
    Listen, Mr. Walder.
[10:05] Mayor
    The golf club here has existed alongside
    the townspeople for generations.
[10:10] Mayor
    You promised that you wouldn't
    turn this into a golf club
[10:13] Mayor
    exclusively for the wealthy.
[10:16] Walder
    I don't remember promising that!
[10:18] Mayor
    H-How terrible!
[10:20] People
    You liar! You villain!
[10:21] People
    Give it back!
[10:23] Walder
    What'd you say?!
[10:26] Mole
    Would you at least spare the moles, though?
[10:30] Mole
    The moles are the symbol of this town.
[10:33] Walder
    Don't be ridiculous!
[10:35] Walder
    I won't let a single mole live here!
[10:37] Walder
    This will be a mole-free golf course!
[10:41] Mayor
    He leaves us no choice.
[10:42] Mayor
    Mr. Walder. Will you agree to
    settle this the way our city does?
[10:49] Mayor
    If we lose, we won't interfere in your
    development of the golf course ever again.
[10:55] Mayor
    But if we win...
[10:57] Walder
    Oh? And how does the city
    settle these things?
[11:01] Mayor
    With a golf tournament, of course!
[11:04] Mole
    Mayor, please...
[11:06] Papa
    It's too dangerous, Mr. Mayor!
[11:08] Man
    This isn't good.
[11:10] Man
    We're playing into his hands.
[11:11] Man
    What happens if we lose?
[11:13] Mayor
    Don't you worry.
[11:14] Mayor
    This is how our city does things.
[11:16] Mayor
    We're in the right, here.
[11:18] Mayor
    We've always settled things
    with golf in the past.
[11:20] Mayor
    I'm sure that golf will settle
    it this time, as well!
[11:25] Papa
    But... I just...
[11:27] Walder
    I'm in!
[11:29] Walder
    We'll settle this with golf!
[11:31] Walder
    And I'll use it to shut your mouth forever!
[11:35] Momo
    How does someone "settle things with golf"?
SIGN    Each side nominates a golfer to compete, I'm sure.
[11:43] Chamo
    Aren't you glad you came, Momo?
[11:45] Chamo
    Now you get to see a golf match!
[11:48] Lupi
    Honestly! This is no time to celebrate!
[11:51] Lupi
    The moles' lives are on the line!
[11:53] Chamo
    Oh, you're right.
[11:55] Momo
    This is awful!

[12:21] Moles
    Yes! Walder is our enemy!
[12:25] Moles
    Reinforcements have arrived!
[12:34] Moles
    We will live and die beside you.
[12:37] Moles
    We'll fight together to the end!
[12:40] Moles
    We're so, so glad to have you!
[12:44] Moles
    Yeah!
[12:53] Walder
    I've got Jackie Strike,
    the all-American champion.
[12:57] Walder
    Hi!
[13:01] Walder
    The all-England champion, Nostra Damas.
[13:04] Walder
    Hi!
[13:06] Walder
    The Australian champion, Kellogg Newman.
[13:09] Walder
    Hi!
[13:13] Walder
    Well? Have you chosen your own golfer?
[13:18] Mole
    Well, do you want to golf?
[13:21] Papa
    I can't play against those pros!
[13:23] Papa
    Still, I can't believe they're here.
    I'd love to get their autograph...
[13:27] Mayor
    I did get their autograph.
[13:32] Mayor
    They won't stand a chance if they're
    intimidated before the competition even starts.
[13:37] Chamo
    Yeah. What do we do?
[13:40] Lupi
    I know! We have a golfer, too!
[13:43] Momo
    Yeah! And an incredible pro, at that!
[13:50] Momo
    Parariru Parariru Doririnpa!
[13:53] Momo
    Tiaran Tianan Maririnpa!
[13:56] Momo
    Become a women's pro golfer
    with a Minky touch!
[14:26] Walder
    Well? Can I assume I've won, then?
[14:30] Mole
    Well... I don't...
[14:32] Momo
    Wait!
[14:33] Momo
    I'll play.
[14:36] Momo
    I'll gladly accept this challenge.
[14:39] Momo
    Is that acceptable, Mr. Walder?
[14:40] Walder
    A women's pro?
[14:42] Walder
    Fine.
[14:44] Mayor
    Who is that woman?
[14:46] Papa
    I don't know.
[14:48] Jackie
    All right. I'll play you.
[15:05] Man
    Nice shot!
[15:13] Momo
    Take that!
[15:20] Man
    Nice shot!
[15:21] Mole
    That was impressive! What a great drive.
[15:27] Mole
    Okay, I'll play caddie.
[15:29] Mole
    If you have any questions about
    this golf course, just ask me.
[15:32] Momo
    Oh, thank you!
[15:33] Momo
    I'll be sure to ask.
[15:49] Momo
    Drat! I hit it too high!
[15:56] Walder
    You need more training.
[16:01] Moles
    What a dirty trick!
[16:03] Moles
    Stupid Walder!
[16:04] Moles
    Okay...
[16:06] Moles
    We'll go after Walder.
[16:08] Moles
    We'll split up here, then.
[16:09] Moles
    Good luck to you!
[16:11] Moles
    Right!
[16:26] Mayor
    I don't know where she played
    before now, but she's very good!
[16:29] Papa
    Agreed.
[16:35] Jackie
    You see that?
[16:37] Momo
    He really is good.
[16:38] Momo
    His putting is so precise...
[16:48] Walder
    He did it!
[16:54] Momo
    I did it!
[17:12] Papa
    Nice birdie!
[17:16] Mole
    Nice birdie! Keep it up!
[17:19] Momo
    Even so, I'm not having an easy time.
[17:22] Momo
    He's still the all-American champion.
[17:24] Mole
    But you're putting up more
    than a good enough fight.
[17:28] Momo
    Putting up a good fight
    is different than winning.
[17:38] Jackie
    Drat, I thought it went in!
[17:43] Walder
    Darn it!
[17:49] Jackie
    Oh, no!
[17:52] Walder
    Timeout! Timeout!
[17:54] Walder
    I want a substitution!
[17:55] Mayor
    We should be even, now.
[17:57] Papa
    No, we're still losing.
[18:12] Trio
    Go, Momo!
[18:25] Mole
    Oh, drat!
[18:27] Lupi
    How far behind are we now?
[18:29] Chamo
    Momo is doing her best, but those
    champions can really hit the ball hard!
SIGN    As you'd expect.
SIGN    But we can't give up! We have to encourage her to the end!
[18:38] Chamo
    Yeah, it's Momo! She won't
    give up to the very end!
[18:49] Kelogg
    I messed up, I guess.
[19:08] Walder
    Three straight whiffs?!
[19:10] Walder
    No! I want a substitution!
[19:34] Nostra
    What the...
[19:40] Nostra
    The ball disappeared! This can't be!
[19:43] Walder
    Substitution!
[19:50] Mole
    This is the final hole.
[19:52] Momo
    It's an incredible one.
[19:54] Momo
    They call it "The Witch's Dimple".
[19:56] Momo
    Anything can happen on
    this part of the course.
[19:59] Momo
    If you can get it in one shot,
    we'll be back in the lead.
[20:01] Momo
    What will you do?
[20:03] Momo
    I'll go for it, of course.
[20:05] Mole
    That's the way.
[20:06] Mole
    There's a powerful wind
    coming in from the sea.
[20:08] Mole
    Try to keep it low.
[20:10] Momo
    Got it.
[20:16] Momo
    Let's go.
[20:17] Chamo
    Momo...
[20:27] Momo
    Go!
[20:30] Papa
    It's going too far!
[20:32] Lupi
    No!
[20:42] Mole
    We turned it around! We win!
[20:46] Both
    Yeah! We win!
[20:48] Both
    Yes! We did it!
[20:54] Walder
    What's going on here?!
[20:57] Walder
    I hate you all!
[21:24] King
    Wonderful, wonderful! La-dee-da!
[21:26] King
    Did you see Momo's comeback
    hole-in-one, darling?
[21:30] Queen
    Yes, she has a real talent
    for golf, just like me.
[21:35] King
    Indeed...
[21:37] Queen
    Still, when was the last time we
    enjoyed golf together at St. Andrews?
[21:43] King
    It was...
[21:44] King
    Oh, I've grown so forgetful these days.
[21:47] King
    I know!
[21:50] King
    Let's enjoy a game of golf as well!
[21:53] Queen
    But we can't use the long clubs here.
[21:55] King
    Golf in Marinarsa is putt-putt golf.
[21:58] King
    Let's putt-putt around.
[22:01] Queen
    I wish I could enjoy a game of golf
    at a proper course like that one.
[22:10] Mole
    Hey, digging a hole there is going
    to make trouble for everybody.
[22:14] Mole
    Try over there instead.
[22:22] Momo
    Isn't it quiet, Mr. Mole?
[22:25] Mole
    It's always like this here.
[22:27] Mole
    And it always will be.
