[upbeat music]
Is the water ready?
[chuckles] Nice and hot.
[light beams twinkling]
[gasps] What the...
[yells]
What did you do?
Uh... nothing.
That couldn't have been my toe.
It's too delicate.

[both Barbies groaning]
Oof.
You okay?
You'll get the hang of it after a few more trips.
That is one skill I don't plan to practice any time soon.
I loved being a mermaid,
but I'm very happy to be back on solid ground.
Uh... where are we, by the way?
[sheepishly] Hi.
Um... what were you doing in my spa?
Ah... that's where we are.
Told you it wasn't my toe.
Hi.
Fun fact!
This spa connects to a magical underwater portal system.
So... that's cool.
Sorry to interrupt you. Have a nice rest of your day.
That wasn't weird.
[groans]
I should find Ken.
When I left to find you,
he was dealing with Leo and Alo and Rocki.
That's a lot.
Good call. I'll touch base with Teresa,
see if we can't learn more about
how bunnycorns use the magic portals.
Hey, Barbie. You're not out here
because Mom and Dad are mad.
[chuckles] Are you?
What? No! Why would they be mad?
Ahem.
[chuckles nervously]
[laughs nervously]
Two hours late. No call, no text.
Not even an "I'm okay" emoji.
There's an "I'm okay" emoji?
Missing the point, Skipper.
Okay, but this is not my fault.
The DJ after my set never showed,
so I had to do a double set.
And it's not like I had a break when I would let you know.
And hey... I'm okay! So what's the big deal?
What's the big deal? What's the big deal?!
Tell her, honey. What's the big deal.
You didn't do what you said
you were going to do.
When we didn't hear from you, we got worried.
Oh. So this is about you not trusting me?
No, it's about responsibility.
And to encourage you to show some, you get extra chores.
Starting now.
What? Now?
But... but... I have texts to send, and...
and games to play!
You should've thought of that before you forgot to call us!
Ugh. So unfair!
How is this supposed to teach me responsibility?
Because maybe if you have your own kids,
you'll remember this day and suddenly realize
what it means not to know where they are.
Uh, honey...
Is that really the lesson we're trying to teach here?
Multiple lessons, dear. We can teach multiple lessons.
The rake is waiting for you.
Argh! Ugh.
Whoa. Mom and Dad are really mad.
I will never forget to call them ever.
Once I get a phone, that is.
You want me to live here,
in this little home outside your home?
Yeah!
Perfect for a little horse. Or horse-adjacent.
You're welcome to stay as long as you like.
You're just gonna roll out the red carpet
for this little banisher, then?
Well, I like the idea.
We can keep an eye on him until we know all the gems are safe.
This one is!
[all gasp]
Oh, glorious day! You found the water gem.
We're one step closer to protecting Mesmer!
And to finding my people.
[sad neigh]
Hey, little buddy. What's got you down?
Oh, Barbie's success only reminds me that it was I
who failed in the first place.
You only fail if you give up.
You need to find a new way to hide the water gem
and make it the safest it can possibly be.
- I know you can do it. - Well, I don't.
I don't trust this guy as far as I can throw him.
Which is probably pretty far.
He's very small, it kinda ruins your point.
[gasps]
I'd just feel better if I hid it.
No. This is my job, I'll do it.
No, you don't. I'll handle this. Let go!
- Grr! - I know what I'm doing.
[gasps]
Oops.
- I'll get it. - No, no.
This is my thing to do.
[gasps] Ooh!
[chittering]
Hello there, furry friend. May I have the gem?
[squirrel chitters]
Hey! Watch it! Ow!
- Come back here. - [squirrel chitters]
Where are you taking that?
[squirrel chitters]
[gasps]
I got this!
[groans]
Now you see why I don't trust him?
[squirrel chitters]
The only thing this is teaching me is how thirsty I am.
[squirrel chitters]
I wish the tables were turned.
Then my parents would see how hard it is to be a kid today.
- [slurps] - Skipper?
Huh. Hmm.
Whoa.
Did you see a squirrel come this way holding a magical gem?
Uh... does it look like this?
Yes! Crisis averted.
Thank goodness we found it before anything bad happened.
Barbie! Come quick! It's bad.
- What's wrong? - Are you okay?
We're fine, but...
[babies babbling]
[gasps] How adorable!
[laughs]
Two babies. What are their names?
George and Margaret.
Aww. Isn't that sweet?
They have the same names as your parents.
That's because they are our parents!
[all gasp]
How did this happen?
No clue.
One minute Mom and Dad were making us smoothies,
the next they were wearing diapers!
They transformed right in front of our eyes.
Someone must've cast a spell.
Wasn't me... for once.
Oh, no.
Oh, no... what?
I wished that the tables were turned,
like, they'd be the kids. But how did it come true?
The water gem.
Were you holding it when you made that wish?
I was.
[cat meows and hisses]
So that means this is all my fault!
Don't panic.
Rocki, you must know how to fix this. Right?
Please tell me my parents aren't gonna be babies forever.
Okay, but it won't be the truth.
[all together] What?!
Gem spells are really tricky. I don't know much about them.
We can't leave our parents like this.
I'm too young to have a baby for a mom and dad.
How will they drive me to soccer practice?
They can't even reach the pedals!
Don't worry, Chels.
There must be someone who can help us.
It'll have to be someone really magical and powerful
and probably old too.
With a sweet tooth.
A sweet tooth?
Mm-hmm.
We'll need snacks while they work.
Do you know anyone like that?
Nope.
I do.
One of the most powerful wizards in Mesmer.
But... I don't know if he's speaking to me right now.
Okay. We would love to hear more.
Um... before we start, can someone figure out
which baby needs a diaper change?
[baby giggles]
Thanks for doing this, Teresa.
Of course!
I'm all in when it comes to helping my friends.
And learning more about bunnycorns.
Okay, sweetie fur.
Anything in here about the magic portal system?
[sniffing]
[bunnycorn squeaks]
Ooh! She's onto something.
What is that?
Another gem?
No. It's a...
[sniffs] ...jellybean.
[bunnycorn chittering]
Leo. If there is any way to help my parents we have to try.
Are things back home really that bad?
I did something so terrible. I'd never talk to me again.
[gasps]
So you did steal the air gem!
No. But I did steal something.
I took a vial of transformation potion.
It's how I was able to turn into a human.
And I took a wand.
I only meant to borrow it but then... this happened.
Fresh and clean.
[laughs]
[babies babbling]
That wasn't weird.
Leo, I'm begging you.
If this wizard can help us, you have to go talk to him.
Okay. But how am I gonna get back into Mesmer?
The only way you can, of course.
With wings.
You want my help?
Even after I lost the air gem and the water gem... twice!
If there were any other way I wouldn't be here.
I think he just wanted a... "Yes, please."
Yes, please.
Of course I'll help!
But when we get back, you have to let me hide the water gems
so I can finally start to redeem myself.
Uh... yeah. All right.
Yippity-yay! Hop on.
But watch the feathers, they're delicate.
[straining]
This is awkward.
I gotcha!
[snaps fingers]
[all groaning]
We'll be back as soon as we can.
Hurry!
Whoa!
All good.
[babies babbling]
[gasps]
Look at us!
Huh. Being responsible is fun.
It would be, if I wasn't so terrified.
Never thought I'd use all my experience as a babysitter
on my own parents.
[chuckles]
[baby babbling]
Oops!
This house needs more baby-proofing.
Come on, Chelsea. I'll show you how it's done.
[babies babbling]
[beeping noise]
And there's the baby formula.
Hello? I'm back.
Skipper! Why are Mom and Dad alone out here?
[babies babbling]
[Skipper] I'm getting their lunch.
Can you grab the high chairs?
[Malibu] Okay. But you shouldn't leave them unattended.
[Skipper] Uh... I know what I'm doing.
[Malibu] Where's Chelsea and Stacie?
[Skipper] They're right there too.
[babies babbling]
You know how fast babies are.
[both gasp]
[together] Where are they?
[laughing]
Yes!
[both groaning and struggling]
Oof. The longer I fly, the heavier he gets.
I had a big lunch.
Anyway, Rocki said she could help.
Yeah, I say a lot of things.
- Are we there yet? - Almost.
Over that rise and through the valley beyond.
Yeah... ooh... don't think so.
Aah!
Uh-oh.
[both yelling]
[groaning]
[spitting]
We can walk from here.
[chuckling]
Whoa! Ugh!!!
Good plan.
Mom! Dad?
Where are you?
Baby Mom? Baby Dad?
Come out, come out wherever you are.
Any luck?
No. Where could they be?
Babies don't just disappear.
Adults don't usually turn into babies either.
But here we are.
Wait. Where's my wagon?
[dog barking]
Oh, no. I must've left the door open.
The recycling truck! It's got my wagon.
How did they not notice the babies?
Don't let them recycle Mom and Dad!
You two stay here. Skipper, with me.
I'm really scared, Stacie.
I trust our sisters.
They won't let anything happen to our parents.
Oh... this is a lot further than it looked by air.
Why don't Alo and I just fly ahead and...
No. Wait.
We have to be very quiet so we don't set off the alarm.
I remember that alarm. It sounded something like this.
[imitating alarm]
[loud bellowing]
Nothing like that.
- What do we do? - Run.
[dramatic music]
He's gotta stop soon to pick up more stuff. Right?
You would think.
People are really into recycling.
[together] No!
Turn!
I'm turning!
[tires squeal]
[all breathing heavily]
Whoa!
[all yelling]
[all panting]
Okay. We should be safe here.
[Rocki shuddering]
Who goes there?
It's me.
Leo?
Hello, Father.
[cars honking]
Ah! Whoa! Ah!
Watch out!
[people clamoring]
Order seven-three...
Ooh!
[tires screech]
Oh, no! It's headed for the beach.
[tires squeal]
We'll have a better chance on foot.
Whoa! [groans] Ow.
There it goes.
That's his father?
Not really but that's what Leo always called him.
Titan took care of Leo after the Centaurs disappeared.
You've gotten so big! Like you've been gone for ages.
I've been so worried.
You don't write, you never call, not even a magical emoji!
There's a magical emoji?
What's an emoji?
Uh... can we talk about this later?
My friends need your help.
Rocki, Alo... this is Titan.
Alo and I have met a long time ago.
Nice to see you again.
Come and tell me what you want.
That's it, you're not mad at me?
Of course not, Leo.
I was always more worried than mad.
Parenting can be a complex business.
Let's discuss it over a cup of hot milk like old times.
I'd like that.
But... another time?
I can't stay.
My friend's parents were turned into babies with the water gem.
You have the water gem?
Hmm. There's only one way to reverse a gem spell.
With an opposite gem spell.
What's the opposite of a water gem spell?
An earth gem spell.
But we don't know where the earth gem is.
I do!
And so does he.
Hot air balloon ride.
Come enjoy a hot air balloon ride.
Drift and relax in the gentle breezes above Malibu.
See the beautiful California coastline
from dangerously high above.
So safe, we even allow babies to ride.
We need a balloon.
There are babies in that one.
Babies? Are you crazy?
In a hot air balloon? That's not safe.
Go! Go, take it.
All this time, you...
you had the earth gem and never told me?
You never asked.
But you knew uniting the gems was the only way
to find my lost family.
All three gems.
I only had the one.
By the time I learned that the air gem was stolen,
you had already run off.
I tried to reach you, but you didn't answer my calls.
I assumed you were just gonna yell at me.
What you did was selfish and dangerous and very hurtful.
But I know what finding your family means to you.
I raised you like a son.
Always knowing one day would be
the right time to give you this.
[gasps] Is that the earth gem?
It is. I knew he would keep it safe.
Why now? Just because I ran away?
No. Because you came back.
Facing your mistakes takes a lot of courage.
Use it well. It is your birthright.
[gasps]
Thank you.
When I find my family, you know I'll always love you. Right?
And I will always love you.
Aww, so sweet! Can we go now?
We still have babies to save.
[air whooshing]
Do you think they're scared? Mom and Dad, I mean.
I don't know. I hope not.
They're so high above the crowd.
If they fall--
They won't.
We just need to find a way to get to that balloon.
The guide rope!
We can tie their balloon to ours and bring them back down.
[straining]
[gasps] I've got an idea.
[air whooshing]
- Careful, Barbie. - Ah!
- You can do it. - Got it!
Good thing we learned how to fly these things last year.
Take us down, Skipper. I mean ,Captain.
Easy. Set 'er down gently.
- Grab ahold! - Pull us down.
Mom! Dad!
We're here.
Oh, no!
Where are the babies?
[phone alerts beeping]
Fifteen messages?
Who's calling me from the Dreamhouse?
[Stacie] We found them right after you left.
You really should check your phone more often.
It's the responsible thing to do.
I am never letting you out of my sight again.
So... any sign of Leo or Rocki?
We got the earth gem.
Skipper can reverse the spell with it.
What do I say?
Let your heart be your guide.
Well... here goes.
I am so sorry I didn't call you when I was late.
I just didn't realize how much you worry about me
when you don't know where I am.
If you come back,
I promise I will be super responsible from now on.
[light twinkling]
- [all cheer] - What?
[chuckles] Hi, kids.
What is that?
[sighs] Didn't we say no more pets?
Ohh.
Hey. Weren't we making smoothies?
[chuckles] Smoothies can wait.
Thank you, Leo.
