Unlucky Charm. Alice loses a game against Bastien, who says he’s undefeatable thanks to his lucky charm. Peeved, Alice “runs” to Wonderland. When she gets there, she finds Lewis, striving – in vain – to put the castle flag back up after accidentally knocking it down during a game of croquet. The Queen is threatening him with a thousand punishments if that flag isn’t put back up correctly! When Alice’s unexpected visit disrupts Lewis, he convinces himself he’s unlucky. So Alice decides she’ll get him a lucky charm. Except, a “lucky charm” in the real world (a four-leaf clover) isn’t necessarily lucky in Wonderland. In fact, it’s downright unlucky! (15 min)
Six-year-old Alice has a magical key that leads her to Wonderland. In this “other realm”, she’s met an endearing rabbit, Lewis, and the two have become fast friends – best friends to be exact! Alice loves going to Wonderland and teaming up with Lewis and her other friends, even if it means contending with the whimsical, hot-headed Queen. Each episode entails a visit to Wonderland, where Alice experiences a wacky adventure with Lewis, confronting the crazy, eccentric rules and conventions that reign supreme in this parallel Kingdom. Alice’s adventures always begin in the “real world” where she is faced with a particular situation. Her far-fetched experiences in Wonderland lead her to a positive outcome or gain insight which helps her to resolve this dilemma and thus, at the end of each episode, she returns happily to the real world.
