Part 7: In which Alice raids a rabbit's den and gets nothing but blues and greens.

Hey, Alice, check it out! We got some fan art!
![](2-Alice.png)
Really? Let me see.
![](2-Alice.png)
...
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
So what do you think?
![](2-Alice.png)
...I think it accurately captures the essence of my adventure so far.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
I knew you'd like it.
![](2-Alice.png)
...well, I'm feeling rested now. Let's take a look in the Rabbit's house.
![](2-Alice.png)
Though I'm not sure why, since he left and all. It's not like I could give him his gloves even if I found them.
![](2-Alice.png)
Hello? Is anyone home? Mister Rabbit? Mary Ann?
![](2-Alice.png)
Hey, where do these stairs go?
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
They go up.
![](2-Alice.png)
...what's so funny?
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
You wouldn't get it.
![](2-Alice.png)
Oh, someone's home after all! ...well, I can see why he mistook me for her. Assuming that isn't the earlier apparition in a maid's outfit.
![](10-0006.png)
The master never tells me when he's having guests.
![](2-Alice.png)
Hello there. What's your name, she said, praying for the right answer?
![](10-0006.png)
Mary Ann, the maid.
![](2-Alice.png)
Oh good. Your master the White Rabbit mistook me for you, and he sent me here to fetch his gloves, only then he got upset and ran off, so I don't know how I shall deliver them to him. I don't suppose you know--
![](10-0006.png)
You like to babble so much that you must have been born in a brook.
![](2-Alice.png)
How rude! I don't deserve that sort of treatment from the likes of you.
![](10-0006.png)
I didn't take the teacup. It's in the fireplace where the Mad Hatter left it.
![](2-Alice.png)
I'm not even asking you about the teacup. I just want to know where the gloves are, and where the Rabbit is, and how to reunite the two!
![](10-0006.png)
I don't have time. The 'size' mushrooms keep growing back after I pick them.
![](2-Alice.png)
I feel as though I'm not having the same conversation as she is.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Maybe you should calm her down.
![](2-Alice.png)
All right. Excuse me, miss, but if you could take a deep breath and try to calm down, I really only need a simple--
![](10-0006.png)
I just want to be alone.
![](2-Alice.png)
And she's gone. Do we need to call the prince?
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
No, we're good. We got everything we needed from her.
![](2-Alice.png)
I hope you're right. I'm going to take a look at the room behind her.
![](2-Alice.png)
It doesn't look like there's anything here.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Maybe there's a secret passage. Try going up those stairs and pushing on the wall.
![](2-Alice.png)
Ow.
![](2-Alice.png)
You knew that was going to happen! Why do you abuse me so?
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Because the crowd loves it. Didn't you see the fanart?
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Seriously, though, I didn't
know there wasn't a path there. Though I didn't think it likely. I think I know what this room is for, but it'll have to wait until later.
![](2-Alice.png)
Fine. I'll just go back through that doorway I saw.
![](2-Alice.png)
It's another dead end.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Not so fast. Mary Ann mentioned the fireplace. Take a look inside.
![](2-Alice.png)
Why should I? It'll probably just drop me down a pit or something.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Would you rather I walked you into a wall for an hour or so? I can do that.
![](2-Alice.png)
I'm going, I'm going. (My poor dress!)
![](2-Alice.png)
Why, there's a secret passage behind the fireplace!
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
It's not the first time I've seen one of those.
![](2-Alice.png)
I wonder where it leads?
![](2-Alice.png)
It's so large. You'd think people would notice.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
You talked to a dodo, a rabbit, and yourself not an hour ago, and
this bothers you?
![](2-Alice.png)
Point. Ah, the teacup! I was wondering if it was ever going to turn up.
![](18-0014.png)
It is a large blue teacup with a picture of bridges and willow trees on the sides.
![](2-Alice.png)
I didn't see the gloves, though.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Don't worry about it. He probably had them in his pocket or something. Anyway, we've seen all there is to see in here.
![](2-Alice.png)
You're right. I must find out how I'm to become a queen and escape Wonderland. I wonder what wonder I'll see next?
![](2-Alice.png)
Well. I suppose this counts as a wonder.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Not the most wondrous, I admit, but you'd better get them. Looks like you can climb the chain.
![](2-Alice.png)
I'm already on it.
![](22-0018.png)
It is a large china teapot stained from years of use.
![](2-Alice.png)
I wonder what I'll need three teapots for?
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
I'm sure you'll find out.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Yay, it's a small yappy dog!
![](2-Alice.png)
You must be using some definition of 'small' of which I was previously unaware. Uh, hello there?
![](24-0020.png)
Larch! Larch! Larch!
![](2-Alice.png)
My name's Alice. What's yours?
![](24-0020.png)
Larch! Larch! Larch!
![](2-Alice.png)
Can you speak? I'm trying to find--
![](24-0020.png)
Larch! Larch! Larch!
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Apparently not. Just keep moving.
![](2-Alice.png)
Quit telling me to do things that will hurt me!
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
Not until it stops being funny!
![](2-Alice.png)
Well, I know how to get rid of this obstacle. And I could have figured it out even without that sampler. Here, boy! Fetch the stick!
![](2-Alice.png)
And he vanishes without so much as a thank you. I'm making good time. I wonder what I'll run into next?
![](27-0023.gif)
![](29-0025.gif)
![](31-0027.png)
![](2-Alice.png)
...oh.
![](1-Waddle_Dee_Ball.png)
I think this is a good spot to take a break. Decision time, folks; do we venture skyward, or do we continue on at ground level?
![](2-Alice.png)
The part I don't like about heights is the falling from them.
