00:30Ireland, the land of legend, of romance and ruins, of shamrock and shannon, of banshee and blarneystone, where peat smoke from humble cottages curls like a magic mist high over the countryside.
00:52Oh, my, I'm not long for this world.
01:01It is here that the fairy folk still play, and that the wee men, known as leprechauns, still live and work, hidden away in their underground cabler shops, making shoes to give to the poor.
01:18Whist! It is the fourth night of the seventh moon. Time for the ceremony of washing our gold. Let's hoist the crock of gold from its secret hiding place.
01:44Paddy, go fetch this tub of salt and water.
02:00Heave over me, lads, and up she comes.
02:03And up she comes.
02:04And up she comes.
02:05And up she comes.
02:06Come on!
02:07Aya!
02:08Aya!
02:10Aya!
02:11So, let's try it again.
02:14Aya!
02:15Aya!
02:16Aya!
02:17Aya!
02:18Aya!
02:19Aya!
02:20Aya!
02:21Aya!
02:22Aya!
02:23Oh, my God.
02:53A leprechaun without his gold is like a man without a soul.
03:07Or a race without a goal.
03:09Or a hearth without a coal.
03:12Or a donut without a hole.
03:23Faith, there's no potatoes in the stew.
03:37No potatoes?
03:38Yes.
03:46Where are you going with that gold coin?
03:48I was going to spend it on some spuds.
03:51Spend it?
03:52The lad's daft.
03:53That he is.
03:54That he is.
03:56What's the good of the gold if you can't spend it?
03:59Have you forgotten the law of the leprechauns?
04:01When a leprechaun gets caught, the rest of the clan must give up their pot of gold so she can be set free.
04:07That's why we need our gold.
04:09And don't you forget it.
04:11And as for the spuds, sometimes the widow Leary leaves a few on her doorstep just for us leprechauns.
04:18Let me go if she's left any spuds tonight.
04:22I'll let the lad go.
04:24He's all in on now.
04:29Now get along with you, lad.
04:31And mind you, don't get caught.
04:43Christ, fireflies, can you spare us a bit of a life?
04:48Ah, there's the widow's house.
05:09Nice and quiet like two.
05:18Please, please, Mr. Gumbyne.
05:29Your whaling ain't going to help you at all, Leary.
05:34I've come to collect the ten pieces of gold you're on your markets.
05:39Arr, psst.
05:41Out she go.
05:42But why have nary a gold piece in the house?
05:46Please, give me time.
05:48Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
05:50So it's time, you watch.
05:57Mind you, I'll be back at the crack of dawn for me money.
06:00Ah, tis sad I am for those poor folks.
06:09Our pot of gold would help them, sure.
06:11And Paddy's the laddie to see that it does.
06:23Oh, who may you be?
06:26I'm Paddy, leprechaun first class.
06:29Your worries are over, Miss, Miss, uh...

06:43Bedad, that's a human creature for you.
06:47I've got it.
06:52Oh, oh, me leg.
06:55Oh, I fell off the window and busted me poor little leg.
07:01Oh, the dear little lad.
07:06Oh, tis to me home, you must help me, Molly.
07:10I couldn't be walking by meself
07:12with me poor little leg all smashed to smithereens.
07:17What's keeping the lad?
07:19I am hungry.
07:21When do we eat?
07:23Here he comes now.
07:27Well, it sure looked like Patrick.
07:30Oh, oh, me, me poor little leg.
07:39Water, water, water.
07:44It's caught, I am, by Molly O'Leary.
07:46And we're honor-bound to give her our pot of gold.
07:53Here you are, Molly.
07:55See?
07:55Then you really are a leprechaun.
08:00Oh, thank you kindly.
08:04Oh, well.
08:05It ain't so bad when our gold goes to poor folks like the O'Leary's.
08:10The sun's a-rising.
08:18It's time to go to the Widow O'Leary's.
08:25Glory be.
08:26Molly O'Leary with a pot of gold.
08:29The top of the morning, Molly.
08:32So you're ready to pay for the mortgage.
08:34Well, there now.
08:36It's all paid up.
08:38But the price has gone up to a full pot of gold.
08:45But, but that's just plain stealing.
08:49Psst.
08:50Let's tag behind.
08:51Now watch, Molly.
08:55Leprechaun gold never stays with him that steals it.
