Oh, Papa Smurf, was this forest always so dry?
- What happened? - I don't know, Smurfette.
It's been a long, long time since I've been here
but I don't recall its being so dry.
And we still haven't found the wild forest pondsnort.
Pondsnort?
Any Smurf knows you can't find pondsnort
if there are no ponds
'because pondsnort only grows'
'at the bottom of..'
...pond.
I feel we've smurfed all this way for nothing.
Oh, what this place needs is a good rain.
[thunder rumbling]
[rain pattering]
I think you got your wish, Smurfette.
- Let's smurf for cover. - Oh, dear, I'm getting all wet.
Over here! It's dry.
Good work, Brainy.
(Brainy) Oh, you can leave it to me, Papa Smurf.
I always know how to keep my head dry.
Papa Smurf, the water's rising.
Oh, my smurfness!
If we don't smurf fast
we'll really be waterlogged.
Hurry, we must smurf to higher ground.
[thunder rumbling]
This is an awfully long shortcut, Peewit.
I hope you know where we're going.
Of course, I do.
Now which way, left or right?
Um, well, I, uh..
What do you think, Biquette?
[bleating]
Biquette thinks we're lost. And so do I.
Look, Johan, a castle.
[thunder rumbling]
- What luck! - Luck?
I told you we weren't lost.
That's strange. No guards, no sentries, no people.
No bread, no ham, no sausage, no dinner!
Come on, Peewit, somebody must live in this castle.
There's no doubt about it, Johan.
This place is deserted
absolutely, positively d-d-d-deserted.
[gasps]
Johan, what was that noise?
Oh, it's only an owl.
Right, only an owl.
thud
Johan, what was that?
Only the wind closing a door.
Now go to sleep, Peewit.
Right. Go to sleep.
Johan, what is that?
- I don't know. - I was afraid you'd say that.
But we'll find out.
I was afraid you'd say that, too.
[intense music]
Look at those shadows.
Be brave, Peewit.
(all) Yikes!
Smurfs! What a pleasant surprise!
Johan, Peewit.
- Hello, Johan. - Hello.
Hey, you were caught in the rain, too.
Yes, we smurfed here for shelter
thinking this place was deserted.
It is, Papa Smurf, except for you, Johan and me
and that man ringing the bell.
The man ringing the bell? Johan!
Maybe there is someone in this castle, after all.
Let's stay calm. Let's not panic.
Warm yourselves at our fire, Smurfs.
Peewit and I will search the bell tower.
Why is it always "Peewit and I?"
Can't you do anything without me?
Now we'll find out who our mysterious bell ringer is.
Alright, come down from there.
(Peewit) 'It's ringing by itself!'
[bell ringing]
Hm. It rang twelve times.
The witching hour. What do you think, Peewit?
I think we should sleep outside.
Ah, there you are.
Ah, a ghost!
I'm so sorry. Did I frighten you?
- Mama! - Please, don't leave.
I wish you no harm.
Johan, we can't escape a ghost.
Listen to me, please. I'm a nice fellow.
Johan, Peewit.
Run, Smurfs! There's a ghost chasing us!
- Did he say "Ghost?" - 'Yaay!'
What, what are you? Ah!
(all) A ghost!
And he's scared of us?
Hey, wait for me.
Brainy, what are you doing?
Scaring a ghost.
[laughs]
Boo! Boo!
Boo-boo-boo!
(Papa Smurf) 'Brainy, stop that immediately.'
Oh, Brainy, are you alright?
Smurf, schmurf, schmarf.
Oh, dear! Now look what I've done.
Oh, you don't look mean.
I assure you I'm not.
- You just startled me. - They startled you?
What do you think you did to us, huh?
Just who are you?
Ahem, I am the ghost of Aldebert De Beaufort.
I used to rule this magnificent castle.
Magnificent, this place?
[laughs] You've gotta be joking.
Alas, it's true.
If you wish, I shall tell you the story.
We love stories.
Especially ghost stories.
So you see, it was my misfortune to have made an enemy
in Sarah, the sorceress.
Yes, I've heard of her. She was a mean witch.
Very mean, she cast a spell
that dried up the seven fountains
which brought water to this kingdom.
No water? So that's why the countryside is so dry.
Yes, and as the drought continued
all my subjects left this land.
My ancestors blaming me for the curse
decided that I must haunt this castle
until the day the seven fountains flow again.
Oh, how sad. Is there anything we can do?
Alas, no.
As long as the countryside is without water
I am doomed to haunt these halls.
[intense music]
Doomed, doomed, doomed!
This is where Johan usually offers to help.
Papa Smurf, is there no way to help poor Aldebert's ghost?
Only Sara the sorceress can restore the water.
And she's been dead for a hundred years.
But maybe she passed her magic on to someone else.
It is possible. I've heard of a sorcerer who lives nearby.
Maybe he knows.
This must be the sorcerer's hut.
What if he's the evil kind
who loves changing people into toads?
Come along, Peewit.
Don't believe everything you smurf, Peewit.
- Not all sorcerers are bad. - Right.
He's probably harmless. You'll see.
knock knock
- What do you want? - Smurf for your lives!
Run, Johan, run! I swear, he'll turn us into toads!
[instrumental music]
Johan, Johan! Where is he?
Hope that that awful sorcerer changed him into a..
Oh, no! I knew this would happen.
(Smurfette) Oh, poor Johan.
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit.
Johan, poor Johan, speak to me.
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit.
splash
We'll find some way to help you.
(Johan) 'Peewit, what are you doing?'
Johan, you're you!
Is this strange creature a friend of yours?
He looks quite mad.
Ribbit, ribbit.
According to the sorcerer, all of Sarah's magic
was passed to Rachael, the sorceress.
'But he doesn't know how to find her.'
Well, that's that. Time to go home.
I know of this Rachael and where she lives.
And she owes me a favor.
trot trot
knock knock
(Papa Smurf) 'Rachael, Rachael!'
'It's Papa Smurf!'
- 'Anybody home?' - Hello.
I smurf we should wait inside because Papa Smurf always says
all good smurfs comes to those who wait.
- And-- - Ahem. We'll wait inside.
But remember, this is the home of a sorceress.
Do not touch a thing.
Ah, water.
This should cool my boiling brow.
slurp
[laughing]
- What's wrong with Peewit? - I don't know.
He just splashed some of that water on his face.
[sniffing] Oh, no! Laughing water.
Ah, Papa Smurf, who is this fool?
Fool? Ha-ha-ha!
She is right. I'm the king's fool!
Rachael, uh, this is my friend, Peewit.
He smurfed some of your laughing water by accident.
He did, did he? I could boil you in oil for that.
Boil? Ha-ha-ha! Oil.
[laughing] Boil, oil.
Yeah, that rhymes.
[laughs] Boil..
Oh, keep still!
[instrumental music]
So, you wanna bring the waters back to the seven fountains?
Yes, we do.
Then you will need this magic divining rod
that once belonged to Sarah, the sorceress.
Oh, thank you.
(Rachael) 'Just bring it back.'
I will see to it personally, Rachael.
[music continues]
Hm, how do we know this thing works?
I'm sure Rachael wouldn't smurf us wrong, Peewit.
It's working, it's working!
Like I was saying, it works like a charm!
Amazing, amazing! We must be over water.
screech
[rumbling]
splash
(all) Hurray, hurray!
- Six more fountains to go. - Hey, let me try.
Yippee! This is fun!
No, except when the fountain is under a tree.
rumble rumble
splash
(Aldebert) 'It's true, it's really true.'
'The seven fountains are back.'
Oh, thank you, thank you.
I only wish your little blue friends were here
so that I could thank them as well.
They had to return the divining rod to Rachel, the sorceress.
And now you can return to your ancestors.
Alas, not yet.
I will only be free
when the one and only true heir to this castle returns.
And according to my ancestors, he must claim this castle
within the next two days, or all is lost.
You must have many descendants.
How can we help you find the one true heir?
Follow me and I'll show you.
- Oh! - I keep forgetting.
You use doors.
(Aldebert) 'This is an imprint of the Beaufort seal'
which has been passed on from father to son for generations.
My one true heir will posses this seal.
Fine, Peewit and I will begin our search tomorrow.
Remember, you have only two days.
The sooner you locate my heir, the sooner I will be free.
[intense music]
[snoring]
Wake up, peasants.
What are you doing in my castle?
Your castle? It belongs to the gho--
Uh, we thought it was deserted, sire.
No longer. I, Ed De Beaufort, have taken possession.
Ah, you speak nonsense!
I, Louis De Beaufort
am the true inheritor of this estate.
Wrong, I, Basel De Beaufort now claim this property.
It is mine, you swine.
I'll teach you to call me swine in my castle!
- My castle! - It is my castle!
[clattering]
Gentlemen, gentlemen!
Hey, hey, no fighting here.
- Who are you? - I am Cher De Beaufort.
Welcome to my humble home.
(together) Your humble home?
[clattering]
How many De Beauforts are there?
Hard to tell. They keep moving around.
[screaming]
But it's getting too crowded
for me.
Ooh!
Uh, excuse me.
If you're another Beaufort, you're late.
The others started fighting without you.
Oh, no. I am not a Beaufort.
I represent Jean De Beaufort.
He is the true heir to this estate.
Who isn't?
But my master has the family seal.
(all) Family seal?
If that is so, then your master is the one true heir.
The boy's right, this seal will prove to the king
that Jean De Beaufort is the true heir.
We might as well take our soldiers and leave.
- Unless.. - Unless, what?
Unless, we bind together and get the seal
from this Jean De Beaufort.
There shall be no such trickery here.
And who will stop us, boy?
I, Johan, and my companion, Peewit.
Bold with the Beauforts, eh?
It is the dungeon for you two.
[laughing]
[intense music]
[horse snorts]
Oh, Papa Smurf, things sure have changed since we left.
What are all those humans smurfing here?
And where's Johan and Peewit?
I don't know, but we must find out.
Carefully, now.
We must get out of here.
Hey, Johan, these chains are so old, maybe we can break them.
[grunting]
Then again, maybe not.
Now, write down that it is urgent and sign your name.
No. Never!
How do you spell "Urgent?"
(Ed) 'Just say it is very important.'
- 'And underline "Very."' - 'Well done.'
Now all we have to do is to send this note
to Jean De Beaufort.
I will deliver it myself
and bring him back here.
But be sure he has the Beaufort seal.
Yes, we need that to prove that I am, uh
we are the rightful Beaufort heir.
[bell ringing]
[screaming] A ghost!
Johan, that awful scream!
Aldebert must have returned.
- Come now. Don't be afraid. - Ah!
I am your great-great-grandfather
Aldebert.
Maybe he can help us.
- Aldebert! - Aldebert!
(Peewit) 'Help, Aldebert!'
(Johan) 'We're in the dungeon!'
It's Johan and Peewit.
This way, down here.
Those stairs are very steep and dark and--
Shh. Someone's coming.
(Peewit and Johan) 'Aldebert, help us!'
(Johan) 'Oh, it's useless, Peewit. He can't hear us.'
But I can. Now, be quiet before I chain up your big mouths.
(Peewit) 'Oh, well, at least someone heard us.'
[dramatic music]
- Papa Smurf! - Oh, it's terrible!
Some evil humans have smurfed a trap
for the one true heir to the castle.
And if they can get their hands on the royal seal, then..
You've gotta smurf out of here.
(all) Aldebert!
Can you help us get out of these chains?
Alas, no.
My hands won't pass through anything solid.
I can't even open a door.
If you could only help us find the keys, we can do the rest.
Oh, I frightened the one with the keys just a moment ago.
Uh, a-accidentally, of course.
That gives me an idea.
You were dreaming, Basel.
I already told you that ghosts do not exist.
Oh, but I do!
- Ha-ha-ha! - Oh! Oh, my God!
I've been waiting ages for you, Beauforts.
[laughs]
Do you really think the ghost is gone?
I certainly hope so.
Hello!
Oh, I haven't had so much fun in years.
Now let him try to get in.
(Smurfs) Whoo-o-o!
Little ghosts! Oh, go away!
(Papa Smurf) Give us your keys, and we'll go away.
'Here, take them. Just go!'
Good work, Smurfs.
- Don't thank us, thank him. - It was nothing.
Now, just keep scaring the Beauforts
until we can get out of the castle.
- The dog! I must go. - What a time to leave.
Tomorrow at midnight is my last chance to find the true heir.
If I fail, then I will haunt these halls forever. Forever!
Oh, Papa Smurf, we only have one more day
to help that poor ghost.
(Papa Smurf) We better get smurfing.
My men are ready to ride.
Then you must leave at once.
If those ghosts don't get you first.
(all) Whoo-o-o!
Basel is right. There are more!
Hm. What have we here?
Ooh!
(Peewit) I'm going to get you.
(Johan) Peewit!
Whoa! Heh-heh.
Tickle, tickle, tickle! Coochie, coochie, coo.
- Why, you! - Can't you take a joke?
Stop them! They are no ghosts. It was a trick.
Your good ideas never last long, Peewit.
- 'After them! There they are!' - We've got them trapped.
- Johan, do something. - I'm thinking.
I've got it. We'll jump.
(Peewit) 'Think of something else.'
No time to argue. Hang on, Smurfs.
splash
Blast! They're getting away.
(Smurfette) Oh, we made it!
- Run, Peewit! - They must not escape.
As I was saying, run!
They must be around here somewhere.
Split up and find them.
We need a horse. And you can help us get one, Peewit.
Right! Me?
Peewit! Peewit!
Don't drop me!
Good work, Peewit.
(Smurfette) Oh, Peewit, you were wonderful.
I was, wasn't I?
Blast! No sign of Johan and Peewit.
And where is Beaufort?
- I'm here. - I'm here!
Not you. Him!
- What happened to you? - And where is your horse?
Well, uh, I have good news and bad news.
The good news is I found the prisoners.
Well, where are they?
That's the bad news.
- You mean they got away? - Enough!
I must get to Jean De Beaufort before Johan and Peewit
or all is lost!
Yes, you're right. Go quickly.
And take the shortcut.
Oh, the poor horse is so tired, Papa Smurf.
Yes, Smurfette, and it's still a long way
to Jean De Beaufort's village.
And I am starving.
Come, Peewit. We'll continue on foot.
But we must reach Jean De Beaufort
before his evil cousins do.
I'm so hungry. I'm smelling things like sausage.
Peewit, come back here!
I still don't see why my servant wanted me
to come alone and bring the Beaufort seal.
Hm, dear Cousin Jean
there are traitors afoot. You'll be safer with us!
Hm.
swoosh
- You! - You villain!
A traitor! Grab him!
- Johan! - Don't let him escape!
But who are these men?
Johan and Peewit. The traitors I mentioned.
They are after your Beaufort seal.
trot trot
No, we're not! He is the traitor!
Peewit speaks the truth, Jean.
[grunting]
I hate traitors.
Stand back!
This should convince you we're friends, sire.
It is the Beaufort seal.
- But how did you-- - 'We'll explain.'
But I hope you like ghost stories.
Do you think this will work, Johan?
It has to, Jean, or your ghostly great-great-grandfather
will never rest.
- Where is Beaufort? - I'm here!
Not you. Louis.
It's almost midnight. He should've been back by now.
- 'There he is.' - 'Are you sure it's Louis?'
(Ed) 'No one else looks like that. Lower the drawbridge.'
creak
Your plan is working, Johan.
His plans always work.
It's time to confuse the enemy.
Let's go! Come on, Peewit!
- We're inside. - Quick, to the bell tower.
To the bell tower!
[instrumental music]
Thanks, Johan.
Johan!
- Seize him! - Johan!
So much for the element of surprise.
Uh, get to them!
Break it down!
- Now what? - Look for the back door.
It's barred from the outside.
[grunting]
Stand back! I'll show you how to open a door.
Peewit, I don't know how, but you did it!
I did?
The midnight hour. We must hurry!
[bell ringing]
Are you sure the ghost will appear?
Sure, we're sure.
Look!
Thank heavens! You've come back in time.
And could this young man possibly be..
(Johan) 'Yes, this is Jean De Beaufort'
'your direct descendant and one true heir.'
At last! It's almost too good to be true.
My boy!
(Ed) 'Not another door. Break it down.'
We need your help one last time, Aldebert.
It will be my pleasure, Johan.
thud
- Ah! - Whoa!
Look, he's not solid. He can't hurt you.
thud
Now it is four against three.
That's what you think.
Once we get rid of you, Jean De Beaufort
this castle will be mine!
- Yours? - I thought we were partners.
We'll discuss it later. After him!
Good one, Johan. Ouch!
Watch out, Jean! That's it! Um, give it to 'em.
- I'll take care of you. - Mama!
It's nothing. Pull harder.
Whoa!
[screaming]
Phew. Saved by the bell.
We will see about that.
Ah!
[screaming]
splash
[chuckles] I guess
he wanted to join his partner.
[chuckles] I've got the Beaufort seal!
It's half mine!
[both screaming]
(Johan) Excuse me, Smurfs.
I'm returning this to the rightful owner.
That moat is getting a little crowded.
Hey, shove over! I was here first.
- We are partners! - Can anybody swim?
[instrumental music]
(Aldebert) Jean, you are now lord of Beaufort castle.
And at long last, I am free.
Oh, thank you, my friends.
And goodbye.
Goodbye, sir ghost.
He looked so happy.
What are you going to do about your villainous cousins, Jean?
I believe Peewit has already taken care of that.
