WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL
WHEN WE THINK SOMEBODY'SON TO US.
WE ARE ALL PART OFA SECRET SOCIETY, STAN.
A VERY ANCIENT, VERY IMPORTANTSOCIETY OF MEN
WHO FOLLOWTHE WAY OF THE RABBIT
AND PROTECT THE SECRETOF THE EASTER BUNNY.
WE ARE CALLED"THE HARE CLUB FOR MEN."
DOES MOM KNOW ABOUT THIS ?
DUH !
IT'S "THE HARE CLUBFOR MEN."
CHICKS WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND !
I BELONG TO A SECRET SOCIETY
THAT HAS BEEN AROUNDFOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS.
OUR IDENTITIES HAVE TOBE PROTECTED.
COULD YOU TAKE OFFTHE EARS, PLEASE ?
STAN, YOU DON'TSEEM TO UNDERSTAND
HOW SERIOUS THIS IS !
THE SECRET OF EASTERTHAT WE PROTECT
IS SOMETHING THATCOULD ROCK THE FOUNDATION
OF THE ENTIRE WORLD.
SO WHAT ISTHE SECRET OF EASTER ?
I CAN'T TELL YOU.
YOU HAVE TO BE ALLOWEDINTO THE SOCIETY FIRST.
BUT... BUT PERHAPSIT'S TIME.
( doorbell ringing )
( huffing )
HELP.
WHAT HAPPENED ?
MY DAD'S IN ARABBIT-WORSHIPING CULT CALLED
"THE HARE CLUB FOR MEN."
THEY PROTECTTHE SECRET OF EASTER.
BUT BEFORE THEY SAIDWHAT IT WAS, THEY WEREATTACKED BY NINJAS
AND PUT ME IN CHARGEOF SNOWBALL.
I'M KIND OFFINGER-PAINTING RIGHT NOW.
DUDE, THEY TOOKMY DAD AWAY !
THEY EVEN SHOTONE OF HIS FELLOW HARES.
AND NOW THEY'REAFTER ME !
DO YOU KNOWANYTHING ABOUT EASTER ?
WHAT IS THE CONNECTIONBETWEEN JESUS
AND RABBITSAND COLORED EGGS ?
DUDE, I'M JEWISH,I HAVE NO IDEA.
( coughing )
NELSON !
NELSON, NELSON,SAY SOMETHING.
MY LEGS...
I THINK THEY'RE BROKEN.
NELSON, DO YOU KNOWWHERE WE ARE ?
WHERE DID THEY TAKE US ?
DON'T KNOW.
WE TRAVELEDFOR HOURS.
KEPT BLACKING OUT.
( coughing )
YOU.
WHAT IS ITIN REGARD TO ?
THE HISTORY OF EASTER.
SORRY, BOYS,IT'S A LITTLE LATE
FOR ME TO BE GIVINGLECTURES.
PLEASE, DO YOUKNOW ANYTHING ABOUT
"THE HARE CLUB FOR MEN" ?
THE KEEPERS ?
THE GUARDIANSOF THE SECRET ?
MY DAD IS IN IT.
THIS RABBIT ISTOO SOMEHOW.
COME ON IN.
"THE HARE CLUB FOR MEN"HAS BEEN AROUND FOR CENTURIES.
ONE OF ITS MOST FAMOUS MEMBERSWAS LEONARDO DA VINCI.
BEHOLD"THE LAST SUPPER,"
THE DINNER CHRIST HADWITH HIS DISCIPLES
THE NIGHT BEFOREHE WAS CRUCIFIED.
WHAT FOOD DO YOU SEEON THE TABLE ?
JUST BREAD.
REALLY ?
LOOK TO JESUS' RIGHT,
THE FOOD WHICH ISA LITTLE DIFFERENT COLOR
THAN THE OTHERS.
IT KIND OF LOOKSLIKE AN EGG.
YES, THE EGGMARKS THE SECRET.
IT LIES DIRECTLY IN FRONTOF ST. PETER.
WHO WAS ST. PETER ?
HE WAS THE DISCIPLE THAT JESUSMADE INTO THE FIRST POPE.
EGGS-ACTLY.
BUT THERE'S SOMETHINGTHE CHURCH DIDN'T TELL YOU.
IN ACTUALITY, PETER WASN'TA MAN AT ALL.
ST. PETER...WAS A RABBIT.
PETER RABBIT.
OF COURSE, THE CHURCHWOULDN'T ALLOW DA VINCI
TO PAINT PETER AS A RABBIT,SO HE PAINTED HIM AS A MAN,
BUT LEFT CLUES.
LOOK CLOSELY.
I DON'T SEE IT.
LOOK CLOSLIER.
HE LOOKS LIKE A GUY.
LOOK MORE CLOSLIER.
WITH LASER TECHNOLOGY WE CANLOOK BENEATH THE PAINT,
AT THE WAY DA VINCIORIGINALLY PAINTED IT.
THAT IS ST. PETER.
THE ORIGINALPOPE OF CHRISTIANITY.
I DON'T BELIEVE IT.
THE PROOF IS EVERYWHERE.
LOOK AT THE POPE'SHAT-- IT MAKES NO SENSE.
EXCEPT THAT IT WAS ORIGINALLYDESIGNED FOR A RABBIT.
BUT WHY WOULD JESUS WANT ARABBIT TO RUN HIS CHURCH ?
BECAUSE JESUSKNEW NO ONE MAN
COULD SPEAK FOR EVERYONEIN A RELIGION.
MEN CAN BEINTOLERANT.
RABBITS ARE PURE.
BUT THE CATHOLIC CHURCHBURIED THE TRUTH,
PUT A MAN IN CHARGE,
AND "THE HARE CLUB FOR MEN"HAVE BEEN DECORATING EGGS
EVER SINCE TO KEEP THE SECRETIN DA VINCI'S PAINTING ALIVE.
SO THE VATICANTOOK STAN'S DAD ?
YOU DARE TO MOCK GODBY TELLING PEOPLE
ST. PETER WAS A RABBIT ?
Captioning made possible by
YOU HAVE NO RIGHTTO WEAR THAT HAT !
TRYING TO TELL PEOPLETHAT ST. PETER WAS A RABBIT
IS BLASPHEMY !
YOU MUST ADMIT YOU AREWRONG OR BURN IN HELL.
IT'S SAYING STUPIDTHINGS LIKE THAT
THAT MADE JESUS WANT TOPUT A RABBIT IN CHARGE.
I'M SORRY I COULDN'T BRING YOUTHE RABBIT, YOUR HOLINESS,
BUT THEY KNOW WHERE IT IS.
THE RABBIT YOUCALL SNOWBALL
IS A THREATTO CHRIST'S CHURCH.
WHERE IS THE RABBIT ?
I DON'T KNOW.
AND EVEN IFI DID KNOW--
WELL, I'D PROBABLY TELL YOU
BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TOBE HERE ANYMORE.
TAKE HIM TO BETORTURED.
TORTURED ?
BUT, BILL, ALL THISTORTURING AND NINJAS--
IT JUST DOESN'T SEEMVERY CHRISTIAN.
YOU ASKED FOR THE HELP OFTHE AMERICAN CATHOLIC LEAGUE.
LET US DO OUR JOB.
TAKE HIM !
NO, NO, YOUBUNNY-HATING BASTARDS !
DON'T DO THIS !
WHY WOULD THE POPE BE HOLDINGMY DAD HOSTAGE FOR SNOWBALL ?
I BELIEVESNOWBALL MUST BE
A DIRECT DESCENDANT OFST. PETER HIMSELF,
AND THEREFORE THE TRUEHEIR OF THE POPE'S THRONE.
MR. TEABAG, GET OUT !
AGH !
THEY FOUND ME !
BOYS, GET OUTOF HERE !
HEAD TO THE WOODS.
I'LL TRY TOBUY YOU SOME TIME.
( ninja )CHECK UPSTAIRS !
( ninja )KITCHEN'S CLEAR !
TRY THE OFFICE !
( microwave beeping )
IN HERE !
WHAT'S THAT ?
( beeping )
PEEPS !
SO WHAT NOW ?
IF THE POPE HAS MY DAD,
I HAVE TO GIVE HIMWHAT HE WANTS.
YOU AREN'T JUST GONNAHAND SNOWBALL OVER ?
WHAT CHOICE DO I HAVE ?
THERE'S NOBODY LEFTWHO CAN HELP US !
WAIT.
UNLESS MAYBE THERE IS.
HERE, HOLD THIS.
JESUS, I KNOW WE HAVEN'TTALKED IN A LONG TIME,
AND I KNOW THATEVERY TIME YOU APPEAR
WE END UP KILLINGYOU SOMEHOW,
BUT... I DON'TKNOW WHAT TO DO
AND I COULD REALLYUSE YOUR HELP.
I THINK THE RABBITJUST CRAPPED ON MY JACKET.
