MacHenry uses magic to makes it snow and Mr. Brian then shows up alive and well and reveals that he brought back Zebedee's magic moustache. When Dougal tells the gang what happened to Brian, they all mourn for their friend, causing Buxton to "blush for shame", revealing his true colour to be white. The group return to the magic garden, and come across a tearfully remorseful Buxton. Brian takes it upon himself to reenter the factory on his own, only for the factory to collapse to the ground. Dougal frees everyone from the prison cell, but as they escape, Brian tries to tell Dougal that they've forgotten something.
Upon finding out about "Blue Peter's" true identity, Madam Blue becomes infuriated, causing a lightning storm around the factory, and strips Buxton of his title. Dougal manages to make it safely to Earth with a parachute, while Buxton, still in the rocket, crashes inside the factory. The pair begin to fight, but manage to make it to the rocket. Whilst on the Moon, Dougal falls in a puddle and his dye washes off, revealing his true identity. Madam Blue then orders the two to conquer the Moon (and paint it blue, as revealed in the French version). He resists, and is released from the room and given the title of Prime Minister.ĭougal takes a "tour" of the caves beneath the treacle factory, and manages to locate his friends in the dungeon, only to be followed by Buxton. Dougal faces the dilemma of eating the sugar, and revealing his true identity, or resisting the sugar, thus earning Buxton's trust.
To make sure of this, Buxton proceeds to lock Dougal in a torture chamber, which is a room full of sugar cubes. Arriving to the factory, he introduces himself to Buxton as Blue Peter and says that he hates sugar. Upon finding out about his friends from a scarecrow, Dougal has the idea to dye himself blue (in the French version, the scarecrow gives him this idea). Buxton reveals himself to be in possession of Zebedee's magic moustache, so they are unable to escape with magic. Every character, except for Dougal, is eventually taken and imprisoned in the factory dungeon. While the group searches for the magic moustache, Buxton sneaks back to the factory again and orders his army to capture everyone. A distressed Zebedee arrives, claiming that his moustache has gone missing (in the French version, he somewhat predicted that bad luck would occur, when his moustache began itching earlier in the movie). As the cat manages to keep them from suspecting, some of the characters begin to take notice when blue cacti start appearing. Buxton then enters the ruins of the old treacle factory and is crowned King after correctly identifying the colours of seven doors, each coloured different shades of blue.īack at the garden, the gang finds Dougal, having been previously stuck from an elevated platform, who tries to warn everyone that Buxton is evil. Madam Blue ( Fenella Fielding), who plots to transform everything in the world blue, with everything that isn't blue to be destroyed, while anyone who isn't blue will be imprisoned. He introduces himself to the Blue Voice a.k.a. Sometime later, after taking a nap in Dougal's bed (which Dougal objected), Buxton sneaks off to the treacle factory. Sure enough, no one is aware that the blue cat plots to take over the garden. As she takes him to the bridge to meet the other animals, Dougal becomes jealous of the attention directed toward Buxton, and suspicious that the blue cat's arrival might be related to the strange event from the previous night. After Zebedee arrives and tells Florence of Dougal's dilemma, Florence goes to the garden and introduces Dougal to Buxton. Rusty and the other kids who show her a surprise: a sly blue cat, who introduces himself as Buxton. I'm blue, I'm beautiful, I'm best!" After the flashback, Zebedee suggests Dougal talk with Florence.Īt the roundabout, Florence is greeted by Mr. The second voice, a female, repeatedly says, "Blue is beautiful, blue is best. Dougal recounts how, after being awoken and greeted by a strange red owl, he had heard two voices coming from the old treacle factory that had been shut down. He then takes the train to speak to Zebedee about it (while briefly conversing with Ermintrude, Brian, Dylan, and Mr. One morning in the magic garden, after a rude awakening from his cuckoo clock, Dougal the dog remembers a strange event that happened last night.
