Things are never quite what they seem for Mouse and Mole. A cosy evening at home turns into a scary encounter in the dark. Mouse enjoys special moments on a country stroll while Mole is eager to get to the end of it. Pea soup for supper – Mole's favourite – has him in a quandary; is this the happiest moment of his life or the saddest? Mouse, as always, takes it all in his stride.
