Hey, do you think Mr. Bear knows
about us and how we control the different seasons?
Hey, Saga.
Oh, don't ask me that.

Are you all right?
Are you ok, Vincent?
S-Sorry.
The doctor says it will be about ten days until he's fully healed.
What a pain.
Without Vincent's piano, the play can't go on.
And tomorrow's our last performance in this town, too.
Are we going to cancel it?
No!
Let's find someone else who can play the piano.
I'm sure we'll find someone!
Oh, I think I know who we could use.
What? Me play piano?
Yes.
Vincent said he wanted you to take his place.
Saga!
Are you gonna play the piano?
Waffo!
I get to hear Saga's piano playing again!
We can't cancel the performance
just because Vincent was injured.
Thankfully, tomorrow is our last performance.
So, we wanted to ask you to do it just this once.
Oh, here's the music.
I can't!
I'm sorry,
but I can't.
What? Why not?
Oh, yeah,
I understand.
I'd probably say the same thing in your position.
Exactly.
Yeah,
but I promised to give this to you.
Sorry!!
Oh, huh? But I can't!
Saga.
Is something wrong?
Hey, are you going to play the piano or not? What's with him, anyway?
Just because he's injured,
why do I have to be the one to take his place?
Saga?
Are you still awake?
Y-Yeah. But I'll go to sleep soon.
Are you still thinking about that offer to play?
That's not it.
I had no intention of accepting, anyway.
I see.
It's best to do as you wish, then...
to do whatever makes you happy.
It's late now, so go to sleep soon.
Yes, Grandma.
Good night.
Saga, it's Mr. Bear.
Tomorrow
I've got to go and turn down that offer.
What is it, Saga?
Hey, Saga!
Oh. What?
Do you want to come with me again?
To The Bear Pianist?
I'll go with you.
Are you sure, Norma? Cheryl is a... you know.
Even though she's a girl, she's still cool.
So I'm going.
Besides, this is the last performance.
How about you, Saga?
Sorry.
I have plans today.
Why?
Saga, aren't you going to play piano?
I was looking forward to it.
Why not? Why aren't you gonna play?
Just because!
Come to think of it,
that's what it's called, a theater troupe.
Today is supposed to be their last performance.
Have you already been, Saga?
Huh? Oh, yeah.
Oh! Was it interesting?
Yeah, I guess.
It seems to have gotten good reviews.
I see. Well, if you say so. Maybe I'll go see for myself.
Hey, Saga!
-Play the piano! -Play the piano!
What is it, Saga?
N-Nothing.
It'll be lonely.
They were good customers, that theater troupe.
Saga will want to play the piano more and more.
Y-You're right. Saga will want to play the piano more and more.
See you later.
Be careful on your way home.
Wait!
Ok!
I'll turn them down, just like I planned!
Hey, Saga.
Why won't you play for us?
I just want to hear your piano playing!
But we don't want to force her.
Is she just being stubborn?
That's not it. I can play for you guys any time.
I'm just declining the offer to take his place.
Waffo!
Then I want to hear you now. Right now!
Play for us!
No! I'm not stopping here today!
I have to hurry and decline his offer.
Saga.
Please play for us.
Hey, are you going to play?
Oh, I'm in a hurry.
Everyone.
Tonight is the last performance,
of The Hammond Theater Troupe's special tour.
A fairy tale of love and emotion.
"The Bear Pianist!"
Tonight is our final performance.
Don't miss it!
It looks like the final performance will have a few changes.
Some of the troupe members were just here,
and said they need another piano.
Is that so?
Today is my last chance to hear Vincent's piano playing.
I like his performance now
better than when he was a pianist!
Today's the last day.
Maybe I'll go see it again.
Pianist?
The same as Saga's mom?
Oh, didn't you know?
Until a few years ago he was a pianist in an orchestra.
When the piano string broke,
he fixed it all by himself, too.
He really is something.
I hadn't realized.
Saga.
Wait, Saga!
Vincent.
Hey, you came. Thank you.
Saga,
there's a piano here, too!
Are you gonna play for us here?
Oh, this?
It looks worse than it is.
It's just a sprain.
Um.
You were... a pianist?
Yeah.
Well, that was a long time ago.
Then why...
Why did you play the piano so roughly?
Um... did I do that?
You did!
When Greta was on the stage!
Oh. Oh, that time!
I hope everyone liked it!
But the piano almost broke!
Yeah, it did break a little,
but as long as everyone enjoyed it.
Hey.
Where's the pianist replacement?
Huh?
The girl from the coffee shop?
You're the one Vincent recommended as his replacement?
-Yes.
-N-No.
I can't do it.
I can't play like you.
I want you to play. In my place.
Wait, wait! It's not fair of you to ask a child to take your place, Vincent.
Besides, we don't even know if she's capable or not.
What? What?
You've never even heard her!
Saga's piano playing is great!!
This guy gets on my nerves!
She doesn't want to do it, anyway.
Ow!
Hey, the lights are hot!
-Yes! -Sorry!
Sorry to have asked something impossible of you, Miss.
To be told so suddenly
to play such a difficult song...
I can play this song!
Huh? You can play this?
Uh. Yeah, well. But, um...
See, I told you she'd be all right.
Hmm...
If Vincent recommends you, then I guess it's all right.
B-But.
What are you doing?
It's almost show time.
Oh, is it that time already?
Ok, we're counting on you then!
Um...
Hey, we've decided on the piano replacement.
We're counting on you! I just can't do it.
Oh, this girl is the pianist replacement?
Nice to meet you.
No, um...
So that means...
It means we'll get to hear Saga's piano playing!
Waffo!
Yay!
H-Hey.
Saga.
Thank you.
S-Stupid me!
Ok, it's time.
-Huh? -What? Saga! -Hey. Quit it!
Don't interfere, please!
It's almost show time.
Ok! It's almost show time.
Ok!
Wow, it's almost time!
Waffo! They all want to hear Saga's piano playing!
Yeah!! There they are.
Everyone's here, Saga!
There really are a lot of people here.
Oh. Elder, Ginger and Turmeric are here, too.
Huh? Could it be that you're nervous, Saga?
Oh, of course I am!
This is the first time I've played in front of such a large crowd.
Why did I say I would play, anyway?
Hurry up and play, Saga.
Saga? What's the matter?
Saga?
What's the matter?
You look a little tense.
Just be the same old Saga you always are.
Even if you make a mistake, we're here, so it'll be okay.
Y-Yes, you're right!
Thank you for coming.
To the final performance of The Hammond Theater Troupe tonight.
They will now perform "The Bear Pianist."
It's almost time,
so let's enjoy it, Saga!
See you afterwards.
We're counting on you, Vincent!!
Yeah!
We're counting on you!
Oh, ok!
Come on, hurry!
Hey, Grandma, what's that piano sound?
That's the Bear Pianist playing.
Bear Pianist?
Yes. Playing for the one he loves.
Once upon a time,
in the middle of the woods, there was a bear that could play the piano.
No one wants me for a companion. Oh, how wonderful it would be.
Hey, Saga. No one wants me for a companion. Oh, how wonderful it would be.
Save it for later! If only I could become human.
If you want to be human that badly,
I'll grant your wish.
Who's there? Where are you?
Who are you?
I grant beautiful wishes.
Thirteen, fourteen...
Saga!
Thanks.
Fifteen?
Huh? One page is missing!
Here, Saga!
Thanks, Sugar.
You're doing great, Saga!
Keep it up!
Just as I thought:
The songs you play are very gentle sounding.
Not at all.
Vincent! Hurry! Hurry!
Oh, talk to you later.
That's not true at all.
Saga?
It's no use. I can't play anymore.
Why do you say that?
Saga, please calm down.
Vincent said you were doing well, didn't he?
Yeah! I don't think it's bad, either!
Ooh, it's no use!
I don't even know what I'm playing now!
It's no use trying to play like this.
Oh!
I love your piano playing, Saga.
I like Mr. Bear's playing, too.
Listening to it is fun,
and makes me happy, and makes me smile.
You have fun playing the piano, too, don't you, Saga?
You love playing piano.
I love your piano playing, too, Saga!
Me, too!
So it's all right. Saga!
Play the piano. Ok?
Ok.
If only I might dispel your loneliness at night.
What beautiful music.
I don't have the music!
I can't find it!
Let's look again!
Ok!
Th-That song!
If only I might dispel your loneliness at night.
It was you, wasn't it?
Thank you, Bear.
Cheryl was wonderful!
Saga?
The Hammond Theater Troupe is gone.
Yeah.
I was so moved by your performance.
Theater is wonderful, isn't it?
I'm glad to hear you say that.
I promise we'll come here to Muhlenburg again.
Yes!
Cheryl, even though you're a girl,
I still think you're wonderful.
Thank you. That makes me happy.
Oh, Norma!
Please take this.
It's a coffee blend I made for all of you to drink.
Thank you.
It might still be stiff-tasting, though.
Stiff?
Yeah, well it does get stiff inside the train.
That's not what I mean.
With your coffee,
I don't think that will be a problem, Saga.
Uh, um...
Thank you, Saga
Bye-bye, Mr. Bear!
It'll be lonely, won't it?
Yeah.
I sure was surprised to see you, Saga.
I had no idea that was you playing the piano.
It was a beautiful performance.
Thank you.
Really! It was a magnificent perfor...
Well, I don't know what I would think
if you weren't able to play on that level easily.
As my eternal rival you understand, don't you?
Your dancing wasn't bad that time, either, Greta.
Hey, what was with that dancing, anyway?
I-It was acting, of course. Acting!
Wh-Why are you looking at me like that?
Don't you believe me?
Hey, hey, Saga!
I want another Waffo!!
You laughed at me, didn't you, Miss Saga!
Hey! Hey! Hey, Saga, Waffo! That's not it, Greta.
Hey! Hey! Hey, Saga, Waffo! Fine then, Miss Saga. I challenge you!
Delicious...
Hey, Sugar.
Um, thanks for everything.
Saga!
I want to eat a waffo tomorrow, too, Saga.
Yeah, yeah.
Waffo!
Wow, Saga!
The Magic flower! Flower! Flower!

Thank you for everything, Saga.
Eating waffos, fighting, taking baths together...
It was all so fun.
Wh-What? Sugar, why are you saying this so suddenly?
Even though the Magic Flower has bloomed,
and I've become a real Snow Fairy,
I'll never, ever forget you, Saga.
Could it be that you found a "Twinkle"?
Huh? Uh, um, well...
"A Little Snow Fairy Sugar" The Next Episode Is "A 'Twinkle' Found!?"
Found... what?
No way!
