Our mice are happily watching the first Tour de France bicycle race as well as cheering their cousin "Rocket Renaud" in the first Tour de Cheese. Renaud's friend Olivier Bonnidee is worried: his father must win the Tour de France or they could lose their winery to the greedy banker, Monsieur Grossnez. The mice soon discover that Mr. Grossnez's well placed thumb tacks have forced Olivier's father into last place. Meanwhile, Renaud is preparing to race with his new aerodynamically designed bicycle. But there's a rat with his eye on Renaud's invention: none other than Notail Nogoodnik. It's two wild races to the finish as the mice help Olivier's father win the Tour de France while Renaud foils Notail and wins the Tour de Cheese- by a whisker!

Scary things have been happening to her and she's afraid she'll never be able to dance again. Tracking down a series of clues and trying to keep one jump ahead of Ludmilla, the backstage cat, the mice discover that the person trying to scare Anna away from the ballet is none other than her best friend, Olga. The mice arrive just in time to see Olga take Anna's place in the audition, but what's happened to the "real" Anna Pavlova? Our mice find her just in time for her to make a dramatic entrance on-stage and delight the dance master with the performance of her career.

Emily and Alexander arrive on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico where they meet cousin Xoc and his friend Wendy. She is the daughter of archaeologist Edward Thompson who has uncovered the Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza. When Alexander gets off the boat he accidentally bumps into some mice workers and is covered head to toe with flour. The workers bow to him believing he is Caban- the moon goddess! When she appears, she steals the moon from the sky! Mr. Thompson opens the Sun Temple and discovers a priceless statue of a jaguar, but a certain rat has seen it too. Notail Nogoodnik is determined to have it for his own. The dastardly rat, impersonating a Shaman, snatches Emily and the statue and it is up to Alexander- who must become the moon goddess one more time- to command an eclipse of the moon, save Emily and return the statue to the people of Mexico.
