01:00Oh
01:30Oh
01:38We need to get just the right parsley for Dennis he certainly is finicky when it comes to making his stews
01:51Did you see that that coach had to burn a sack crest on it an eagle clutching the serpent
02:01I
02:03Stop
02:04What's Quasimodo so excited about that coach had his family crest on the door. It might be his parents
02:30Oh, I've made a mistake, but it's given me an idea
02:40Dennis I've made a decision and I don't want you to try to talk me out of it
02:44I've decided to visit my parents Chateau
02:47I've always been leery of what I might find there. But now the time has come to face whatever truth awaits me
02:53Hmm. I don't know Quasimodo. I
02:56Worry about your going there on your own
02:58The place has been abandoned for years and you have nothing to worry about on that account Dennis
03:03Francois and I will go to but the deburn a sack Chateau is deep in the heart of the forest of Fontainebleau
03:09Overlooking the river, but the only practical way to get there is by boat. Do we know anyone who has a boat?
03:15No problem. We can always borrow a boat from
03:19uncle Gustavo
03:21Alas your third cousin Armando needs that one to transport his goods to market
03:26All right, then uncle. How about that one?
03:29It's also spoken for Esmeralda happily. My niece Camille needs it for her honeymoon voyage tomorrow
03:37But uncle Gustavo, I thought you said you had a boat for us. Oh, I do
03:43look
03:45Are you sure you don't need a boat?
03:47Are you sure someone else doesn't need it?
04:17I
04:26Reach the Chateau
04:31Try to steal water from the baron to 70s estate not at all, sir
04:35I went all the way upstream to the forest for this
04:38Oh, yeah, you might fool some folks with a story like that, but you won't fool me
04:44You there on the riverbank
04:47Huh?
04:48Why don't you two cowards try picking on someone who can give you a little more of a fight? Oh, yeah
04:54I think we're gonna have to teach you to watch your mouth
04:59You'd have to catch me first
05:17Oh
05:47I
06:05See moto look Chateau to burn a sack
06:10Or
06:15It's like something out of a fairy tale
06:26Look how cute
06:28Oh
06:33Quasimodo you look so sad
06:35Being here makes me realize that I've grown up never feeling the love of my parents
06:40Never knowing what it's like to be part of the family
06:43You have Dennis and you have me and Francois
06:47No family could love you more than we do
06:56That's strange
06:59As Miranda what's different about that crest it's the serpent and the eagle but the serpent isn't under the eagle
07:12This pillar is made up of movable stones they rotate on a hidden axis Francois come here and help us
07:29I
07:32Entrance yes, but to what well, whatever's down there. It's bound to be cold and damp full of spiders food
07:39I think I'll just stay here
07:50I don't believe it. We found my parents secret laboratory
07:58Oh
08:08My parents laboratory
08:18Look potions for stretching wax exploding powder transforming dust
08:28Oh
08:44You know how to do all that
08:47Somehow I just knew how it worked. I don't know why you were probably around all these things when you were a baby
08:53Look a seal with the deborah sack crest on it
08:58Hi there nice horsey
09:28Manuscripts I
09:30Bet their records of my parents work in alchemy and magic
09:35But it looks like I won't find out about their experiments
09:40Without a lot of hard work on my own their notes are in a secret code
09:45Quasimodo, I've just found some things that aren't in code. They seem to be thank-you letters from people your parents helped
09:54Quasimodo look at this. Huh the personal diary of Vivian to burn a sack. Oh, these drawings were done by my father
10:06My mother and father
10:08According to this diary my parents were devoted to the ideal of doing away with poverty and making everyone equal under the law
10:16No wonder they were so unpopular among the nobility
10:20This entry tells of how they invented a divining device
10:25To find desperately needed water on the farm of a couple named mark and mary
10:30And they were able to find a way to get water to their house
10:34Find desperately needed water on the farm of a couple named mark and mary l a fleur
10:41Oh, no, I don't believe it. What is it? Frollo once worked as my parents assistant
10:48In recent months it is greed which seems to be claude frollo's true motivation in wanting to discover the secret of the philosopher's stone
10:57We now find ourselves forced to banish him from the chateau
11:01I fear for our safety who knows what frollo will do
11:06That was the last entry the 11th of may 1465
11:11According to dennis the chateau was stormed and destroyed less than a week later
11:18Thank you both so much for all your assistance what on earth are you talking about? Yes francois if you're in trouble
11:25Why didn't you say something?
11:31I
11:33Feel as if I should do something to continue my parents work, but how you'll think of something. I hope so
11:42Someone needs our help
11:47Quick francois do something right. I think I can do that
11:52Oh
11:55My friends
11:59And just why should we because you're trespassing on my land your land
12:06Isn't this the old de bernesac estate?
12:08Indeed it is and I am charles de bernesac
12:16You're supposed to be dead
12:18And even if you were alive you'd have to be at least 50 years old I am
12:24I am
12:25People tell me that I uh look young for my age
12:29My uh, oh my magic keeps me youthful. Yes. That's it. I'm a great magician
12:35I don't know
12:36There's something funny about this come
12:39Let me give you a tour of my estate
12:43The stables are this way
12:45Please you must help me you'll be safe with us. Um, just tell us what's going on. My name is lucy la fleur
12:53My parents were mark and marielle la fleur quasimodo. Their names were in your mother's journal
12:58My parents were once befriended by the de bernesacs
13:02My parents told me they came to our farm when I was a baby
13:05And I remember my parents talking about how kind they were even though they were so rich and we were so poor
13:12My mother and father died last year
13:14But my brother robert and I have tried to keep the family farm going and we've succeeded till now
13:22The spring found by the de bernesacs divining device so long ago has now dried up. We have no water
13:30That's why after all these years, I must find the de bernesacs again without their help
13:36I don't know what my brother and I will do and great-grandmother on my father's side was the princess louise marie marie
13:44So, of course you realize that makes me the legitimate heir to the throne
13:51This lad certainly has an over-heated imagination
13:55Indeed, I think his majesty here could use some cooling
14:02This is an outrage expect a visit from the royal guards by nightfall
14:09Hmm
14:12Good job stalling them francois. Yes
14:14I'm, sure it was that story about being the next in line to the throne that really convinced them
14:21And who may I ask is this most lovely of ladies? My name is lucy
14:28My brother robert has been taken prisoner by the baron's men and now they are after me
14:34I've come in search of the de bernesacs
14:36They saved my family once before I was hoping they would be kind enough to do it again
14:41And i'm sure my parents would have been glad to help you again
14:44But i'm afraid they're gone. They've disappeared
14:47That's it then
14:49All is lost
14:51Oh, what will we do?
14:57Don't worry lucy we'll help you
15:00First we'll rescue your brother and then we'll find a way to solve your water problem. I promise
15:05Esmeralda, can I speak to you for a moment?
15:08Don't worry lucy if anyone can do it quasimodo can
15:13In fact this situation reminds me of my latest poem. Would you care to hear it?
15:18a poem
15:20I don't know
15:21I suppose this is the ballad of lady ludmilla who lived with her father
15:28and her magic umbrella
15:31The first thing we have to do is find some of that exploding powder I saw it here somewhere here you are exploding powder
15:42Quasimodo
15:43the divining device
15:45Aha, you know if this thing found water for the lafleurs before maybe it can do it again
15:51You're brilliant esmeralda as always
16:00Hmm
16:02The baron's name is the savannah
16:05Was there some talk of him being an enemy of the king?
16:08Yes, i've heard dennis say that some of the king's advisors distressed the baron
16:14There it is the baron's estate is just past those trees his men are holding robert there until the sheriff arrives
16:21Do you know where they're holding him in the granary?
16:24Don't worry. We'll find a way to bring him home safe and sound
16:30Hmm
16:43Check
16:48Shrewd move henry, but i'm afraid it won't do you any good
16:55Check and mate
17:00Your lordship we've spotted a strange boat tied up at the shore. Well, then you'd better look into the matter hadn't you?
17:13Do you know how to pick a lock certainly but it may take some time don't worry I brought along a little diversion
17:19Hmm
17:26Are you sure you haven't seen anything unusual pierre the baron may be a trusting soul
17:31But jacques and I aren't quite as kind-hearted as he is
17:34So
17:46Who are you friends of lucy's come on quick
17:55Those two again francois you go back to the farm with robert go back through the woods
18:00I'll draw them away by heading for the boat
18:04So
18:18Come on she'll quit doddling doddling who's doddling
18:34And just who are you to be giving me orders Jacques petit i'll show you who I am
18:51Now that is dumb luck
19:04Hmm not very helpful i'm afraid at least it seems to be working
19:27Lucy this may be it
19:30Well, it does keep finding water lucy just not the kind we need
19:37Oh robert you're free all our problems are solved alas i'm afraid not
19:43young man
19:44Although my men imprisoned you without my knowledge and I strongly disapprove of their actions
19:50It's still a fact that you've been stealing my water
19:54Baron, please they needed the water. They took from your estate to survive
19:59I understand that young robert stole out of a need to survive
20:03I'm, not unsympathetic to his plight
20:06But stealing no matter what the reason is wrong
20:10The truth is I need the water for my own crops and as these two no longer have water on their farm
20:17They will doubtless be forced to steal from my precious supply again and again
20:28Oh
20:38Baron if they did have their own source of water, would you be willing to let things drop? I would
20:47Now i'll have to get the divining device to work
20:55Goodbye gentlemen
20:58Oh
21:04I found it. I found water young lady
21:08Even if there were water inside that rock
21:11How would you ever get it out?
21:14Allow me
21:16Hmm
21:25Good luck robert and lucy lafleur
21:28I believe your parents would be very proud of you
21:31Thank you baron and thanks to our friends here. We won't be needing any more of your water
21:41Come on up for a home-cooked farmer's meal. It's the least we can do
21:46I must say I have a better opinion of the baron than before even if the king's advisors distrust him
21:52Yes
21:53I've seen with my own eyes that he is an honorable man
21:57But from now on i'll form my own opinions
22:01Our farm has once again been saved by a diburnisak
22:05You seem to be following in your parents footsteps quasimodo
22:10You know, I believe you're right
22:12And if I can ever crack my parents code perhaps i'll be able to someday continue their work in alchemy
22:18And together my friends and I will see if we can solve some of life's greatest mysteries
22:24quasimodo
22:25the diburnisak crest
22:29This marks the beginning of a new chapter in the diburnisak family saga
22:42So
22:44So
23:11You
23:14You
