Miss Eglintine Price (Angela Lansbury) a slightly eccentric lady, has a large home in a county village, where she lives alone and so she is assigned the three orphans, Carrie, Charles and Paul Rollins. The village priest (Roddy McDowell) has an interest in Miss Price, but possibly more-so in her wealth.

The King is royally upset because the soccer match cannot take place that day, because there is no referee. Professor Brown volunteers. As they talk, he notices that the star medallion is on a ribbon around this king's neck. Then begins a rather one-sided soccer match one team being composed of nasty, aggressive, toothy animals, and the other side, being meek, gentle animals. As the game proceeds, we learn that the lack of referees is because of the physical abuse they take from both sides. (The medics are cartoon vultures.) The ball is punctured and goes flying off. The Lion very upset, lets out a roar which knocks all the other players into the goal, the ball floats down and he blows it into the goal as well. So his side wins 1 to nothing.

Our group then hurries back to the bed, while the Lion just realizes that the star is missing. He rushes after them, but Miss Price turns him into a white rabbit. They then return to her country home, where she wishes to experiment with the spell by casting it on the Professor's empty shoes. But the star with the magic words on it has vanished. The Professor now goes for provisions at the village, where the postmistress pries and tries to give him a push to marry Miss Price. At this time the priest walks in, overhearing the end of this exchange, and is jealous. The postmistress takes some glee in needling the priest about it.
