"Promise you'll make it back up here when you've actually got time?" Mr. Whiskers asked, looking at his daughter.
Ortensia smiled up at the big cat, about to answer when she was forced to hold onto her hat as the train arrived. As soon as the train slowed down, Ortensia said, "Of course, Daddy."
"And you can bring the whole family!" Homer put in.
"Oh great." Oswald mumbled, getting Mickey to cover his mouth as a laugh escaped.
"We better get going." Minnie put in as other passengers started getting on the train.
"See you soon." Mr. Whiskers said, getting a hug from Ortensia.
"We'll meet you in Burbank." Mickey said, hugging Minnie.
"Don't get shot down this time." Minnie laughed.
"We still don't know who did that." Mickey realized.
"I have a feeling it might have been Harry." Oswald admitted.
"All Aboard!"
"Alright, see ya!" Ortensia called, pulling Minnie behind her as they rushed to the train.
"Come back soon sis!" Homer called out, waving as the two boarded.
The four watched as Ortensia and Minnie disappeared into the train. The girls reappeared in a window, waving as the train started slowly moving out of the station.
"Oh no, the train's already leaving!" a panicked voice called out, footsteps skidding to a stop next to Mickey.
The mouse turned to see who it was only to exclaim, "Clyde?! What do you mean?"
"Pete escaped while they were transferring him to the prison." Clyde explained. "Someone saw him heading this way."
"Oh no, if he's on that train…." Oswald's voice left him as he turned to look down the track only to see the caboose disappearing out of sight. He quickly pulled out his cell phone and called Ortensia only for his face to show frustration. "She doesn't have it on." He admitted, looking at Mickey.
Mickey pulled out his own to call Minnie only for the same results. "Come on, we've gotta try and catch up with it." Mickey said, pulling his brother away.
"How?" Clyde asked, running to keep up.
"With my plane." Mickey explained. He smiled back at the two following him. "I've got a plan."
