Two by Two: Overboard! (2020) Movie Script
(WAVES CRASHING)
(CREAKING)
DAVE: Dave's log. It's been 147 days
since the great flood.
And only the animals lucky enough to find
a place on the Ark have survived...
well, apart from the fish. (LAUGHS)
I mean, if anything, I'd imagine
they're delighted
with the whole situation.
And being amphibious,
you might think us Nestrians would
abandon ship to explore the big blue,
but that's just not in our nature.
Our motto has always been:
Nestrians never neglect no-one in need!
(SIGHS) I'm not gonna lie,
it hasn't been easy on the Ark.
147 days with no sign of land,
but as head chef on the Ark,
I'm certainly doing my best to maintain
the truce between the carnivores
and the herbivores.
Believe me, cooking 50,000 meals a day
ain't no picnic.
Well, hey, at least eating my food
takes their minds off
eating each other, right?
-(CARNIVORES GROWLING)

DAVE: (SIGHS) Yes, yes, we've had
a few challenges along the way...
-(WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY)

of us animals are high.
The strongest and bravest of the doves
shall be sent out in search of land!

(ARK CREAKING)
CHIMPANZEE: ...and then the horse says
to the barman, "Why the short face?"
(LAUGHTER)
That's a good one, isn't it? (LAUGHS)
I've got that crocodile staring at me
again this morning.
Well, can you blame him
with a chef like this?
Enjoy.
(SNIFFS, GROANS)
(GRUNTS) Dave, can I have the key
to the food store?
Whoa, whoa, whoa, what do you want
the key to the store for?
Are you checking up on me?
No, I was just...
Hazel, you don't trust me? That's it.
You think that I've been
holding out on you.
You think that I've been
hiding the fact from you
and all the other animals
(QUIETLY)
that we've almost run out of food?
(LOUDLY) Is that what you think?
Well, no. I just wanted an apple, but...
Dave, is there something
you wanna tell me about the food?
-(SHUSHING)
-(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)
(LAUGHS) Lenny!
And how may I
tickle your taste buds today?
What's this one?
Same as yesterday.
Ugh. And this one?
It's a burnt pot of that one.
(SMACKING LIPS)
Listen here, Nestrian,
when I put you in charge of the food,
I expected a lot more
than this rancid sludge.
The thing is, Lenny...
It's Leonard.
And if the food doesn't improve,
I'm putting Nestrian a l'orange
on the menu.
(GULPS)
Enjoy!
(GROWLS)
(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY) The joke's on him.
We ran out of fruit weeks ago.
We what?
(SHUSHING) Not here. We'll talk later.
FINNY: We shouldn't be up here,
we're in enough trouble already.
LEAH: Question. Did our parents tell us
not to build a flying machine?
FINNY: No... But I think it was implied.
LEAH: (SCOFFS) We're in trouble already,
so we might as well have some fun.
(CREAKING)
We don't jump until I'm ready, okay?
-Of course.
-(YELPS)
-Paw promise?
-That's not a thing.
But it could be. It could be our thing.
Never gonna happen.
(GULPS, WHIMPERS)
(WHIMPERS)
(SIGHS) What is it now?
What... What if it doesn't work?
I thought you Nestrians
could build anything?
Yeah, but I never built wings before.
I'm just worried that...
Whoa. No worrying.
The last thing we want
is you getting scared
and burping disgusting blue gas
everywhere.
Correction, Nestrians don't
"get scared and burp blue gas".
We emit a malodorous vapor
to ward off foes
when feeling scared! (SCREAMING)
(LEAH YELLING)
Whoa! Yeah!
It's working! We're flying!
Oh, yeah. Mmm.
-(FINNY SCREAMING)
-(LEAH WHOOPING)
GORILLA: Huh?
FINNY: Sorry!
-(GORILLA GROWLS)
-Please don't tell my dad!
Yeah! Haha, see?
What were you worrying about?
(BOTH GASP, SCREAM)
This! This is what I was worrying about!
(BOTH SCREAMING)

(ANIMALS SIGHING)

(ANIMALS EXCLAIM)
(ANIMALS COUGHING)
You both have a lot of growing up to do.
How can we? You treat us like kids.
You are kids!
Then aren't we supposed to have
a lot of growing up to do?
(GASPS, WHISPERS) I think they've got us.
(SCOFFS) This isn't a debate, Dave,
we're their parents!
And as parents,
we're gonna punish you, right?
Absolutely!
-Well? Go on, then.
-Hmm?
Oh, me! Sure. Yeah.
Er... Not a problem. (CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)
One punishment coming up.
(CLEARS THROAT, GRUNTS SOFTLY)
Erm... Ah...
-Need some help?
-Ba-ba-ba-ba.
I've got this. I've got this.
(CLEARS THROAT) Now...
No more hang-gliding.
BOTH: Huh?
Ever again.
-Huh?
-LEAH: What?
For the rest of the day. Okay?
Good. Now... (CHUCKLES)
let's hug this out.
Oh, for goodness sake.
Until further notice,
you will be spending your days and nights
in the crow's nest,
where you can keep an eye
on the horizon for land
and we can keep an eye on you.
BOTH: What? That's not fair!
You want to be treated like grown-ups?
Then start acting like grown-ups.
Crow's nest. Now.
(FINNY HUMMING)
FINNY: Wow, what a view!
This is the best punishment ever!
Ugh! Do you Nestrians
always have to be so upbeat?
Do you Grymps ever stop complaining?
Nope. Speaking of which, I'm hungry.
Let's sneak into the food store.
Uh-uh. Forget it. We're in enough trouble.
Trust me, you don't wanna spend the night
with a hungry Grymp.
Strange things happen.
-Wha... What happens?
-(STRAINED GRUNT)
(STRAINED) It's not our fault
we can't control ourselves...
-(WHIMPERING)
-(LEAH CHUCKLES)
(STOMACH GROWLS)
You wanna stick around and find out?
(WHIMPERS)
Hurry up!
You really think they'll be fooled
by a couple of straw dummies?
Sure they will.
(SIGHS) This is never gonna work.
They don't look anything like us!
Whoa!
I couldn't quite capture
your sulky expression.
LEAH: Hmm.
If anything, you look mildly disappointed!
They'll do just fine.
(GRUNTS)
(GRUNTING)
Leah, what if we get caught?
(SIGHS) We won't get caught.
Because your mom said that we...
My mom said we should act like grown-ups.
And grown-ups do whatever they want.
-Which is exactly what we're doing, right?
-(GRUNTING)
Wow. You are scary good at arguments.
-(SOFT RATTLING)
-(BOTH GASP)
(DOOR CREAKING)
-Hide!
-(WHIMPERING)
HAZEL: So, what's so important?
(CONTINUES WHIMPERING)
(DAVE CHUCKLING NERVOUSLY)
DAVE: Erm... I... Well, erm...
HAZEL: Hmm?
This is all the food we have left?
-Uh-huh. (GASPS)
-Why didn't you say something?
What, to the 50,000 animals lost at sea?
What would I say?
"If you think you're having fun now,
just wait till the food runs out!"
(BOTH GASP)
How long will it last?
(SIGHS) About five days.
Six if we ask everyone to skip dessert.
-Which they won't.
-(GASPS)
Please tell me you have a plan.
Well, hopefully the Dove will find land
before we all starve to death.
-Huh?
-(CHUCKLES)
-(BOTH GASP)
-DAVE: In the meantime,
I need to make this food
go a long, long way.
But don't worry, Hazel.
Us Nestrians are famous
for our problem-solving skills. (CHUCKLES)
(GRUNTS)
(GASPS)
DAVE: Thank you!
-(RUMBLING)
-What's that noise?
(BOTH SCREAM)
(BOTH SCREAMING)
(SCREAMING CONTINUES)
-Hang on!
-(FINNY WHIMPERING)
I'd already thought of that!
(STRAINING)
(BOTH WHIMPERING)
(GASPS) Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no, no!
(GRUNTS) Crummy craftsmanship!
(STRAINING)
(GRUNTS)
(BOTH SCREAMING)
(BOTH GASPING)
(FINNY GRUNTING)
-Finny, look!
-Huh?
FINNY: Come back here!
LEAH: Stop!
-Wait for us!
-FINNY: We're over here!
-LEAH: No!
-(FINNY YELLS)
Ah... Huh?
-LEAH: Don't leave us!
-Nah.
(CHUCKLES, GOBBLES)
Well, you made the food
go a long way, all right.
All the way to the bottom of the ocean.
(LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY)
Huh?
"All the way to the bottom of the ocean."
I get it. (LAUGHING)
Oh, good one.
I needed that. Laughter is so important.
(SOBBING)
-HAZEL: Hmm.
-(SOBBING UNCONTROLLABLY)
DAVE: What are we going to do?
We stick to the plan
and say nothing to anybody.
Especially the kids.
The last thing we want is them worrying.
(FINNY PANTING)
FINNY: Wait!
Wait for us!
This can't be happening!
(GASPING) Oh, no! Wait!
It's no use, Finny, they're gone.
(GRUNTING)
(FINNY PANTING HEAVILY)
As soon as they see we're missing,
they'll come back for us.
Totally. I'm not worried.
Me neither. (PANTING)
DAVE: Well, that's Leah and Finny fed.
Only 49,998 animals to go.
Any ideas on where exactly
you're gonna pull their food out of?
I told you, I'm working on it.
And, hey,
the kids could spot land any minute.
They're certainly taking
their look-out duties seriously.
Haven't moved all morning.
See? All kids need is a little discipline
to keep out of trouble.
Ah.
LEAH: (SIGHS)
I don't think they're coming back.
They will. And until then,
we'll just have to make the most of it.
The most of what? There is no "it"!
There's just bloodthirsty sharks
and miles and miles of nothing!
(SCRATCHING)
Okay, what are you doing?
Making a hook. (BLOWS)
What for?
For this!
-That's incredible!
-It was easy, really.
I just took a little wood from our raft
to make the rod
and then plucked a few of my hairs
to make the line.
(SHRIEKS)
(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)
I can brush that right out.
All right, let's go fishing!
-DAVE: zuppa del giorno, va bene?
-(CHIMPANZEE GRUMBLES)
We're nearly out.
And just look at that line!
MALE HYENA: Oh, I'm so hungry
I could eat a horse!
(LAUGHING) Relax.
All we have to do is convince
the animals to eat less.
How are you gonna do that?
(LAUGHING) Watch and learn, Hazel,
watch and learn.
-Next!
-Ugh.
(SNIFFS)
There's a hair in this.
Really? Where?
Right there. And it's purple.
Just like yours.
Pfft! Impossible!
I think I'd know if I were missing a hair.
Oh! Then again,
I can't see my butt from here.
Huh? (GAGS)
I can keep this up all week.
We'll be lucky if the rest lasts
until the end of the day.
Well, let's stay positive.
Hey, for all we know,
the Dove's already found land!
(COOS PROUDLY)
(ELECTRICITY CRACKLING)
(COOS WEAKLY)
(ORCHESTRAL MUSIC PLAYING)
Leah, Leah, Leah.
Fishing is an art.
You can't just drop a hook in the water
and hope for the best.
Huh? (GASPS) I've got something!
Really? I never caught anything
in my life!
(GASPS)
-(ELECTRICITY BUZZING)
-(SCREAMING)
(SOFT KID'S VOICE)
I'm sorry! I have tentlecles.
-Tentcycles. Tent... I'm a bit electricky.
-(ELECTRICITY BUZZING)
(GIGGLES)
-What is that, and can we eat it?
-What?
Hi! I'm Jelly.
Hey! She's a jellyfish,
and I'm pretty sure you can't eat them.
Oh, you can totally eat jellyfish.
Turtles eat us, sharks eat us,
and even other jellyfish eat us.
And I don't wanna sound big-headed,
but I hear that we're delicious.
-(GROWLS SOFTLY)
-Huh?
-(CHUCKLES)
-(GASPS) No, you can't eat her!
Ugh. Fine. Throw her overboard.
Can't I stay with you guys?
-Yes!
-No!
Please! I got lost in the flood.
(SIGHS) We got lost too!
Isn't that right, Leah?
No. She's not staying.
Anyway, she needs to be in the water,
right? Hmm?
Exactly, here you are,
some nice cool water.
(RELAXED SIGH)
Don't worry,
we'd never throw you back
into the shark-infested water.
Would we?

-(THUNDER RUMBLING)

There's a... (GAGS)
storm coming.
(ANIMALS GROANING)
(GAGS) I don't feel very well.
Neither do I.
In fact, (GAGS) I feel terrible.
This is great!
Huh?

(DAVE GRUNTING)
Oh, no! No!
HAZEL: Huh?
They're dummies!
No, Hazel, we're the dummies.
We should never have put them
up there! (SOBBING)
(CHUCKLING) No, dummy, these are dummies!
-They're dummies?
-(HAZEL LAUGHS)
(BOTH LAUGHING)

Mm?
Where are the kids?
Ah.

MALE VOICE 1: Anybody know this kid?
MALE VOICE 2: I've never seen him before.
-(FINNY GROANS)
-MALE VOICE 3: Do you think that rumour
about an Ark could be true?
MALE VOICE 4: Poor kid,
probably trying to escape.
(EXHALES DEEPLY)
LEAH: Land? (GASPS)
La... Land?
(GASPING)
Land!
(GASPS)
Finny?
Jelly?
Huh?
Jelly?
(WHIMPERS)
Oh, no...
What's up, Leah?
You're alive!
Where's Finny?
(SIGHS)
I don't know.
-Do you think he's okay?
-Er...
Of course he is! He's a Nestrian.
They're great swimmers
and they've got this gross blue gas
that scares off predators.
-Really?
-Oh, yeah.
It's disgusting.
And besides,
this is the only island in a flood.
Where else could he be?
Right?
(GROANS WEAKLY)
FINNY: Huh?
(GRUNTING)
Have a seat in the waiting room,
the doctor will see you soon.
Thank you, madam.
Oh, my aching trunk.
(GASPS) Nestrians?
You're awake! Good. How are you feeling?
You're a Nestrian.
Yes, dear. And so are you.
But... I've never seen another Nestrian.
Apart from my dad, I mean.
Please stop poking me, dear.
Now, was your dad not with you?
No, he's still on the Ark!
I was with my friends. They're not here?
No, you were brought in alone.
What? I have to find them! (GASPS)
MALE VOICE 1: Good day, ma'am.
(SCREAMS)
It's the creatures from the sea,
they're back!
Oh, the masks! They're creepy, right?
But they do scare off sharks
and most other folks.
-Can't be too careful out there.
-There's nothing to be afraid of, dear.
-Everything all right, nurse?
-Everything's fine.
Clyde will take you to the leader.
She will answer all your questions.
It's "Chief Clyde" or "Chief". Okay?
Never just "Clyde".
Really?
Yes, really, "Bridget". (HUFFS)
BRIDGET: Hmm.
(GRUNTS SOFTLY)
(GASPING, SNEEZES)
(SNIFFLES) Ah. Excuse me.
(NESTRIAN MOM GRUNTS)
Down here, most of us thought the Ark
was nothing more than a myth.
I've never met a Nestrian
who wasn't from the colony.
What colony?
Ha! What colony?
(CHUCKLES)
This colony!
Ah, seriously, guys?
Do you have to move that right now?
Hurry up, this dramatic moment
won't last forever.
(BOTH SIGH)
This colony!
Oh, wow.
FEMALE NESTRIAN: (ON PA)
Don't miss the anniversary party tonight.
The Big Trunk band will be playing
all your favourite hits.
Be there or be square.
-Look, Mom, there's a new kid!
-Wow!
CHIEF CLYDE: I couldn't have
put it better myself.
FINNY: Guys! This place is incredible.
Fresh muffins, fresh muffins.
Oh! Look at all that food!
Come and get them while they're hot!
KID: Oh, can we get
some candied seagrass, please?
VENDOR: We've got the best seaweed
in all colonies!
(FINNY GASPS)
-KID: Oh, there he is!
-Let's go and ask him!
-Were you really on the Ark?
-What was it like?
Weren't you scared
living with all those monsters?
Huh? What monsters?
(CHUCKLES) News travels fast around here!
I'm a monster!
-KID: Don't eat me! Don't eat me!
-(KIDS GIGGLE)
(KIDS CHATTERING AND LAUGHING)
MALE NESTRIAN: Clear the edge!
FEMALE NESTRIAN: Mind the edge!
-MALE NESTRIAN: Easy, now!
-Easy, easy, and ha!
-What's that?
-MALE NESTRIAN: All right!
It's for the big celebration tonight.
We're making this giant Patch and...
No, I don't wanna ruin the surprise.
What's a Patch?
Patch isn't a "what," she's a "who".
Huh?
And 50 years ago today,
she built this colony as a shelter
for all Nestrians.
A shelter from what?
From the outside world, of course!
It's not like us Nestrians didn't try
to make a life out there.
(LION GROWLS)
But no matter where we went
or how far we travelled,
we were never safe.
Even when we discovered
our true destiny as sea creatures,
danger was never far away.
And that's why Patch built
this magnificent colony,
a secret haven,
where we would finally be protected
from the outside world.
And tonight, we're celebrating
her amazing achievement.
We're here!
(LIGHT MUSIC PLAYING)
(COOS)
(GASPS)
SHARK: Huh?
FEMALE NESTRIAN 1: Wow!
FEMALE NESTRIAN 2: Right!
The ceremonial robes are ready.
How do I look?
Like a mighty, majestic chicken.
Can we lose the seagrass?
Hmm... I guess.
I see our guest has arrived.
Hi.
Come, come, my child, don't be shy.
You're safe now.
You've found your way home.
Thanks. But I can't stay.
I have to find my friends.
There are other Nestrians out there?
We must organise a search party!
No, not Nestrians.
Jelly is a jellyfish,
and Leah, she's my best friend,
is a Grymp.
-CHIEF CLYDE: Hmm?
-Your best friend is a Grymp?
Oh, boy. Here we go.
After we find Jelly and Leah,
do you think we can find the Ark too?
Didn't you just escape from the Ark?
Escape? No, I fell overboard.
It wasn't really my fault.
I'm hoping I won't be in too much trouble.
Anyway, they won't care once they see
all the food you guys have here!
Young man, I'm afraid we can't help you
find your friends, or the Ark.
What? Why not?
(SIGHS)
Look at me!
I have creatures, just like your friend
"the Grymp," to thank for this.
I know, but...
Then you'll know I built this colony
to keep Nestrians safe
from those meat-eating beasts.
And now you wanna bring them here?
Things are different now!
-There's a truce on the Ark.
-Hmm?
FINNY: And the animals have learned
to live together.
No chance. It's my job
to do what's best for the colony.
Fine, I'll find them myself.
I'm sorry, child,
but we have just one rule here.
Stay secret. Stay safe. Stay sweet.
That's three rules.
And you cannot keep me here.
What choice do we have?
We can't risk you
leading those savages to us.
Don't worry, you'll love it here.
It's the safest place on Earth!
-(RUMBLING)
-FINNY: Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
-(RUMBLING)
-(BOTH YELPING)
What was that?
(OBJECTS RATTLING)
What was that?
(CHUCKLES) You know,
it happens so much these days,
we don't even notice any more.
Just the colony settling after the flood.
You'll get used to it.
Now, if you don't mind,
I must prepare for the celebrations.
Feel free to explore your new home.
-(GRUNTS ANGRILY)
-Oh, by the way,
there's a party tonight.
-That will take your mind off things.
-(GRUNTS ANGRILY)
Don't let him out of your sight.
And I want scouts on the lookout
for the Ark and any other intruders.
Yes, ma'am.
(WALTZY MUSIC PLAYING)
-(FLAMINGO SIGHS)
-BISON: It's just so ridiculous...
FLAMINGO: I mean,
we really need to stand together...
As if the food wasn't bad enough,
now they don't even show up to serve it!
All right, calm down.
There's probably
a perfectly good explanation.
There is. They don't care no more.
And they put...
-(WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY)
-(GASPS)
-Purple butt fuzz in the breakfast?
-Mm-hmm.
(GAGS, RETCHING)
Right, that's it.
DAVE: (PANTING) Okay, okay,
I checked the upper deck,
I checked the lower deck,
I checked the bridge...
I even checked the poop deck.
Phew-hew-hew! Not a pretty sight.
And I can't find them! (WHEEZES)
Any luck here?
-Those are Leah's claw marks.
-Huh?
They must have fallen overboard
with all the food!
(GASPS) No!
(LENNY CLEARS THROAT)
Hi, guys.
Did he just say all the food is gone?
-(ANIMALS GASP)
-Hey, guys, what did I miss?
(ANIMALS SCREAMING)
JELLY: Oh... Is it getting hotter?
(SIGHING)
Oh, it's definitely getting hotter.
And it's making my water hotter.
-Can you change my water?
-(ANNOYED GRUNT)
Ugh. Why do I have to change your water?
Because you're the grown-up, right?
-(GIGGLES)
-Ugh! Fine.
(GASPS)
Whoa. Nice! You know what?
I think our luck is changing.
Better?
(SIGHS DEEPLY) Much better.
Oh! Hi there! Who are you?
Huh?
Hide!

(GRUNTING)
(GRUNTS)
(PANTING)
FEMALE GUARD: Where are you going?
(GASPS, ECHOES)
BOTH: Huh?
(GASPS)
It's the Ark! (ECHOES)
MALE GUARD: Hey, did you hear that?
(QUIETLY) Hello!
Hey! Over here!
I'm over here!
(YELPING)
(GRUNTING)
Ow! (GROANS)
-(SIZZLING)
-Huh?
Ow, my butt!
-Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! My feet!
-(RUMBLING)
Huh?
(WHIMPERS)
Lava!
(YELPING)
FEMALE GUARD: Oh, no.
MALE GUARD: What is it? Can you see her?
FEMALE GUARD: No, but that's the Ark!
MALE GUARD: Oh, no.
First we get our butts kicked
by the Grymp,
then we lose her, and now this!
What are you going to tell Clyde?
Me? Why do I have to tell him?
-(GROANS)
-(BOTH GASP)
-(BURPS)
-(LEAH COUGHING)
(GRUNTS)
Erm, if anyone asks,
this all happened
in a much cooler way, okay?
(LAUGHING) Yeah!
(ANIMALS GROWLING AND JEERING)
(DAVE WHIMPERING)
Don't worry, I got this.
Any final words?
-Yeah.
-Whoa.
See you in smell!
-(INHALES DEEPLY)
-(ALL GASP)
DAVE: Huh?
(DEJECTEDLY) Oh.
I'll ask you again. Any final words?
-(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)
-(GRUNTS)
Leave this to me. (GROWLING)
(GASPS)
Land. Land ahoy!
-(ANIMALS LAUGHING)
-Nice try.
She's right! Land ahoy! Land ahoy!
We're saved. Set course for the island!
(GORILLAS LAUGHING)
(BOTH YELP)
(STRAINING)
Er... Do you think
the kids might be there?
Let's find out. (GRUNTS)
Huh?
Hey! What are you doing?
I don't know who or what you guys are,
but you have to let me go!
MALE GUARD: (LAUGHS) I don't think so.
Mama Leah!
LEAH: But my friend needs me!
The volcano...
I have to get her out of there!
(GASPS)
FEMALE GUARD: A volcano?
Your friend is a volcano?
LEAH: No. She's a jellyfish.
MALE GUARD: The jellyfish is a volcano?
LEAH: No. Nobody's a volcano.
My friend, a jellyfish,
is up there on her own.
FEMALE GUARD: Oh, I get it.
The jellyfish's name is Volcano.
MALE GUARD:
Well, I'm glad we cleared that up.
MALE GUARD: But hang on a second.
If you're friends with a volcano,
you should be careful!
You never know when they're gonna go off.
You could get covered in jelly
or anything!
JELLY: Whoa!
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
(PA CHIMES)
FEMALE NESTRIAN ON PA: (IN SWEET TONE)
Here is a little reminder.
Our beloved leader Patch
will be attending the party tonight,
so make sure your fur is well groomed,
-and behave yourselves. (CHUCKLES)
-(GASPS) Finny!
JELLY: Yay!
(BACKING ALARM BEEPING)
CHIMPANZEE: Keep coming, keep coming.
Loads of room.
(RUMBLING)
Well done, sir.
Fits like a glove.
(ALL CHEERING)
(GASPS) Over there!
DAVE: A raft!
(ELEPHANT TRUMPETING)
-DAVE: Finny...
-(BOTH GRUNTING)
Leah? Huh?
-Finny?
-Look at this!
BOTH: Oh, they're alive!
And they must be somewhere on this island.
-(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING ON SPEAKERS)
-(EXCITED CHATTERING)
FINNY: Hmm...
Not in the mood for dancing, huh?
If you were told you'd never see
your family or friends again,
would you be dancing?
(PANTING) Clyde!
There's something you need to see.
Chief Clyde. I mean,
how hard is it to call me Chief Clyde?
But you don't understand. This is epic!
(SIGHS) Okay. This is epic, Chief Clyde.
Hmm?
(WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY)
(GASPS) Why didn't you say something?
(ALL CHUCKLE NERVOUSLY)
Keep an eye on him.
And you, don't be such a buzzkill.
You must inform Patch at once.
FEMALE GUARD: Me?
Why do I always have to tell her!
Hmm.
(GRUNTS ANGRILY)
(SCOFFS)
Psst!
Psst!
JELLY: (QUIETLY) Finny! Over here.
Huh? Jelly?
Erm... Is that a pond?
Hmm?
This place is amazing!
It really is a pond!
You're all right! I'm so happy to see you!
Yeah!
-(ELECTRICITY BUZZES)
-(GROANS)
Not again!
(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)
Where's Leah? Is she okay?
No. They took her prisoner!
I saw them take her over that rope bridge.
Huh? Hmm.
(SNIFFING) Huh?
Oh! Candied seaweed! (CLEARS THROAT)
We're under an island?
This is great! I'll find Leah,
but you have to get out of here.
That boy sure likes ponds.
(MUNCHING)
(GASPS) Huh?
(WHIMPERS) Oh, no.
PATCH: (PANTING) This better be important.
(GASPS)
I'm missing my own party.
You didn't tell her?
(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY,
WHISTLES NONCHALANTLY)
You'll wanna see this, Your Nestrian-ness.
PATCH: Hmm...
-Hi!
-(GASPS)
LEAH: Okay, maybe we got off
on the wrong paw.
But you guys are Nestrians, right?
The friendliest creatures on Earth.
You don't cage animals!
What do you know about Nestrians?
Lots! My best friend is a Nestrian.
CHIEF CLYDE: Do you think she means Finny?
LEAH: You've seen Finny? He's here?
Open the door.
Your Nestrian-ness, are you sure
-that's, er...
-Hmm.
Let me get that for you.
(GRUNTS)
Darn seagrass. Look like a fool...
-Is Finny all right?
-Back, Grymp!
-Hey!
-I said, "Back!"
-(RUMBLING)
-(BOTH GRUNTING)
(GASPING)
It's not safe here.
Relax, it's just the colony settling.
No, it's a volcano and it's ready to blow.
We need to leave this place right now!
There may be room on the Ark,
-but we have to get out of here.
-(CHUCKLES)
You want us to go running into the jaws
of your carnivorous friends?
Do I look that stupid?
Well, you are dressed like a chicken.
That's what I said,
but it was too late to lose the seagrass.
(GRUNTS) Clam it!
You're not going anywhere.
But... My friend Jelly is up there.
She won't make it on her own. Please!
Don't let this key out of your sight.
Ugh! You couldn't wash it first?
That's my mouth!
Er, one more thing,
Your High-Nestrian-ness.
(GROANS) What now?
Erm, it's the Ark.
It's landed.
I need to address the colony.
(PANTING)
(GASPS)
(WHIMPERING)
(YELPING)
(ALL SHUSHING)
-Erm, I lost the boy.
-(PATCH GRUNTS ANGRILY)
Come on!
Here 's an idea. Go find him!
Great. Now we're missing the party
because of you.
(SADLY) Oh.
(ALL SIGH IN RELIEF)
Thanks!
Wait, what are you guys doing here?
We've come to see...
ALL: The horrible monster from the Ark.
What monster?
It's got sharp claws.
And huge teeth.
And golden stripes on its head.
That's no monster, that's my best friend.
Do you know where she is?
ALL: Yeah. (LAUGH WICKEDLY)
(KIDS WHIMPERING)
It must be around here somewhere.
I'm scared.
Don't worry, kids,
she wouldn't hurt a fly!
-(BANGING ON DOOR)
-(KIDS SCREAM)
LEAH: When I get out of here,
I'll crush you all like flies!
(ALL BURP, SCREAM)
KID: She is a monster!
(CHUCKLES) Leah!
LEAH: Finny!
FINNY: I just knew
you were the horrible monster!
Wait, I'm the what?
(GRUNTING)
It's locked.
That old Nestrian lady hid the key
in her talking necklace.
Patch? Don't worry, I'll get it.
Hurry up! We've got to get out of here
before that volcano blows!
FINNY: Volcano?
We've got a lot of catching up to do.
FINNY: Mm-hmm.
-And Finny?
-Yeah?
It's good to see you.
You too.
-(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING ON SPEAKERS)
-(CHEERING)
(TRUMPETING RHYTHMICALLY)
-(MUSIC ENDS)
-(ALL CHEERING)
I hope you've all had a wonderful night.
And before you go...
MALE NESTRIAN: Open your gift! Open it!
(ALL CHEERING)
I'm afraid there's an important matter
I need to discuss first.
(ALL GROAN)
They really worked very hard on it.
-You should probably take a look.
-Of course.
How exciting.
(ALL CHEERING)
CHIEF CLYDE: Lower the curtain!
(ALL CHEERING)
(SQUEALING)
-(GASPS)
-Wait for it...
(NESTRIANS CHEERING)
Boom!
Oh.
(CHEERING CONTINUES)
And you haven't even seen the best part.
For years to come,
Nestrians can look down
upon your magnificent colony
from inside the observation butt!
(CHEERING)
Oh! Er...
You hate it. She hates it!
(ALL GROAN)
No, no, no! I love it.
Really? She loves it!
(ALL CHEERING)
Did he just say "observation butt"?
(QUIETLY) We're not calling it that.
(IN NORMAL VOICE)
What a lovely, er... gesture.
And it warms my heart
to see us all together.
(MALE GUARD PANTING)
PATCH: Rejected by the rest
of the animal kingdom...
FEMALE GUARD: I'll go this way.
PATCH: We built this colony as a safe place
where we could flourish and...
Whoa! The colony rules!
Thank you, madam. (CLEARS THROAT)
And how we have flourished.
Proving to ourselves and the world
that we don't need anyone else.
However, I have just been informed
that the Ark,
full of hungry animals,
has landed on our island.
(ALL GASPING, CLAMOURING)
No need to panic.
As long as we stay down here,
they won't even know we exist.
Oh, er, didn't you say they was hungry?
-Starving! They've been at sea for months.
-(WORRIED CHATTER)
But don't worry, the food on the island
will soon run out
and they'll have to move on.
Shouldn't we help them?
(ALL AGREEING)
Help them?
Letting them starve
doesn't seem like the Nestrian way.
What with the kindness and caring and all?
(ALL AGREEING)
You want to let them in here
to share your food? Be my guest!
But what do you think they'll be eating
when the food runs out?
-(ALL MURMURING)
-Rocks?
No, not rocks.
You!
-Who, me?
-(ALL GASP)
(SIGHS)
No.
All of you!
(ALL GASP)
(ALL CLAMOURING)
(CRYING)
Exactly. So it's settled.
Nobody comes in and nobody goes out.
And remember...
ALL: Stay secret. Stay safe. Stay sweet.
That's right, my sweet Nestrians.
Now, sleep well, everybody!
See you tomorrow
for another day in paradise.
(ALL CHEERING)
Double the guards on the exits.
The colony is on lockdown.
Yes, ma'am!
(NESTRIANS CONTINUE CHATTERING)
(PATCH PANTING)
PATCH: Observation butt... (SIGHS)
(GRUNTING) Darn seagrass!
HAZEL: Leah!
DAVE: Finny!
HAZEL: Leah!
DAVE: Finny! Leah!
HAZEL: Finny!
Leah! Finny!
BOTH: Where are you?
I don't like this.
-JELLY: You look like Mama Leah...
-(BOTH GASPING)
...only bigger.
Who said that?
And you look like Papa Finny,
(GIGGLES) only purple!
You know Finny and Leah?
Where are they?
-Through that rock.
-DAVE: Huh?
HAZEL: (WHISPERS) Look!
Take cover!
MALE GUARD: Is it me
or is that tunnel getting longer?
Huh? (YELPS)
Phew. And it's getting hot out here too,
isn't it, huh?
(GASPS) Nestrians!
-They're the ones who took Leah!
-What?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
We Nestrians are the good guys!
Let me talk to them and I will...
No talking. We do this the Grymp way.

Let's go, we've gotta get out of here!
Finny! (CHUCKLES)
Mm!
Come on.
(BOTH GASP)
(BOTH PANTING)
FINNY: Oh, no!
I'm disappointed in you, Finny.
(BOTH GROWL ANGRILY)
(BOTH STRUGGLING)
Take them to the storage room.
(GUARDS MUMBLE)
(LEAH GRUNTS)
I'll inform Patch.
FINNY: Big mistake!
LEAH: Let us go!
Er... This isn't the way
to the storage room.
Where are you taking us, buttfuzz?
HAZEL: Watch your language, young lady!
Mom?
Oh, Mom!
Hey, we agreed
I could do the dramatic reveal!
FINNY: Dad!
-And me!
-FINNY AND LEAH: Jelly!
(BOTH LAUGH)
-(ELECTRICITY BUZZES)
-(FINNY GROANS)
I've gotta stop doing that!
We're sorry, Mom. About everything.
Let's not worry about that now.
(GASPS, GROWLS) I knew it!
I don't understand it.
I distinctly remember ordering
those two strangely unfamiliar guards
to take them here.
What?
Oh.
Whoa! Look at this place!
I know, right?
(GASPS) Does that statue
have an observation butt?
Yup! And it shoots confetti
from the trunk!
-Nice touch!
-Uh-huh.
Guys! Come on! What about the volcano?
Er, what volcano? (GASPS)
Stop right there!
And give us back our uniforms!
PATCH: Guards! Seize them!
Patch, you have to let us go
and warn the other animals!
-They're in great danger!
-Yeah!
Erm... What danger?
You disappoint me, Finny.
I built this paradise
to keep us Nestrians safe
from those treacherous creatures.
If you keep us here,
you haven't built a paradise,
you've built a prison.
And you built it under a volcano!
Erm, what volcano?
That's enough about a volcano!
Even if it were true,
we'd be safer down here
than up there with those carnivores.
If our time on the Ark
has taught us anything, it's...
Never ever get into a tickle fight
with a hippo.
No, Dave. It has taught us
that it is possible for us animals
to put our differences aside and...
No more speeches!
Have it your way!
Dave, Finny!
-BOTH: Huh?
-Grab on!
-Oh. Finny, come on!
-(GRUNTS)

(ALL GRUNTING)
Oh, let them go,
we'll never catch them now.
(GUARDS GRUNTING WEAKLY)
Erm... about this volcano?
CLAM: Is that what the tremors were?
Oh, pull yourselves together.
There is no volcano.
And even if there were, we're Nestrians,
we can always escape to the sea.
Of course! You're right, you're right.
(LOUNGE MUSIC PLAYING)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
I hate this.
Can we not put towels on the loungers
unless we're actually using them?
This is not how paradise works.
Mmm.

Lenny! Leonard! Capt'n!
Oh, good! You've found them. Namaste.
We've got to evacuate the island!
Oh, thank you.

There's a volcano!
And it's gonna blow!
What are you talking about?
It's true! We... (SCREAMS)
(ALL GASPING)
(DAVE WHIMPERS)
What have you done to the Ark?
You destroyed the Ark to build a hot tub?
No, no, no. We destroyed the Ark
to build three hot tubs,
a Tiki bar, and...
BOTH: Huh?
...a games room!
(GRUNTS)
Ah, it's a work in progress.
Relax, have a mocktail!
Voil, sir!
A... A mocktail? Are you kidding?
(SLURPS) Wait,

-(HAZEL GROANS)

There's a volcano right there

What now?
We have no choice,
we'll have to leave by the beach.
Initiate emergency evacuation protocol!
(NESTRIANS SCREAMING)
(PA CHIMES)
FEMALE NESTRIAN: (ON PA)
My fellow Nestrians,
our beloved leader, Patch, has initiated
the emergency evacuation protocol.
Please proceed
to your assigned escape route.
And remember, the situation is never
too dire to give one's neighbour a hug.
What about all those savage animals
up there?
We can only hope Finny was right
about the truce with the meat-eaters.
We need to get all the Nestrians
safely to open water.
Yes, ma'am!
That means absolutely no contact
with the carnivores.
-Yes, ma'am!
-You don't stop for anything or anyone.
-Yes, ma'am! Right away!
-Now go! And that's an order!
-CHIEF CLYDE: Yes, ma'am!

We're almost there!
(NESTRIANS PANTING)

Huh?
Nestrians.
Wild animals.
(GASPS) Wild animals!
-(NESTRIANS GASP)
-(GRUNTS)
Okay, everyone,
keep moving towards the beach.
Nothing to see here.
(NESTRIANS MURMURING)
That's it, keep moving.
Chief Clyde, we need your help
to rebuild the Ark.
We need all of you!
Er, I have strict orders.
But you can't turn your back on us now!
The entire animal kingdom is at stake!
(ANIMALS WHIMPERING SOFTLY)
I'd like to help you, Finny.
Really I would.
But Patch said that I, er...
Er... Er...

we've got an Ark to rebuild!
(ALL CHEERING)
Thanks, Chief Clyde.
Thanks! You can call me Clyde!
All right, everyone, we need
to work together as a team.
Dave?
Okay. Elephants, let's gather up the wood.
And we need some vines for binding.
Uh, giraffes, I'm looking at you.
(ALL CHEERING)
MALE ELEPHANT: All right, let's do this.

She saved us. But then the statue fell.
And... (GASPING) And then...
No...
(PRIMROSE SIGHING)
Don't even think about it.
It's too dangerous.
Somebody's gotta go back for her.
Then I'm coming too.
You'd never survive the swim.
Besides, one of us needs to stay behind
and take care of Jelly.
(JELLY GIGGLES)

our forever home.
Now look at it!
My life's work is... (COUGHING)
...destroyed.
(RUMBLING)
We have to leave now!
Great! Because I'm really starting
to like the sound of this Ark.
(GROANING) I don't think I...
(COUGHS) ...can.
Stay with us, Patch.
The Nestrians need you!
The Nestrians need a strong leader now.
They'll be better off...
(COUGHS) ...without me.
That's not true.
They need you now more than ever.
The Nestrians are gonna
have to start again.
Do you really think they can build
another colony without you?
(BREATHING HOARSELY)
Another colony?
Patch.
Patch?
Wake up, Patch!
Wake up, Patch!
I... I think... I think she's gone.
No...
-Finny...
-Jelly?
Is the old lady asleep?
I'm afraid she's not asleep, Jelly.

we have to go! (YELPS)

I'm sorry, Finny. I truly am.
It's not your fault.
Oh, but it is.

DAVE: Dave's log, day 173.
And welcome to the Ark 2.0!
Just when we thought
life on the Ark couldn't get any worse...
Boom! It couldn't get any better!
And all that was needed
was a few hundred Nestrians.
But it's not just the Ark
that's looking better.
Now that the Nestrians have taught us all
a thing or two about seafood,
-the menu's not too shabby either.
-(FOOD SEARING)
MALE WOMBAT:
Oh, I'll have another one of those.
(LAUGHS) Ah, this is the life.
I have to admit it, Finny, you were right.
And you said seagrass
wouldn't work on a barbecue.
(MUNCHING)
Actually, I meant about life
being good on the Ark.
-(CHUCKLES)
-Cheers!
Oh! Right! (CHUCKLES) Yeah!
But the seagrass works too.
(CHUCKLES)
(GRUNTS ANGRILY) You disobeyed me.
Your orders were not to engage
with the wild animals of the Ark,
General Clyde.
Er, I'm sorry about that.
But actually, it's Chie... Wait, what?
Really? Hah. A promotion?
You showed real leadership.
It was the right thing to do.
Oh, somebody needs a hug! Aw.
CHIMPANZEE: Here's your drinks, madame.
Two snuggles on the beach.
JELLY: I can't believe
that we were in a storm,
a shipwreck, a kidnapping,
a prison break, a collapsing colony,
a submarine, a crash landing,
and a huge erupting volcano!
(GASPS) That was so much fun!
Well, from now on, being sensible is fun.
When you ran off on me,
I was worried sick!
Leah's right. If we're going to be
taking care of you,
there's got to be some ground rules,
young lady.
(CHUCKLING) Wow. You know,
you two really have grown up a lot.
Yeah. Maybe it is time we started
treating you like grown-ups.
Are you nuts?
We don't want to be grown-ups!
Ugh. What's with all the pressure?
Why can't you just let us be kids?
Erm... Okay.
BOTH: (SIGH) Thank you!
Oh, excuse me?
Two peanut bars and two cocotinis.
DAVE: Oh!
CHIMPANZEE: Your order, madam.
-FINNY: Yum.
-Er, can I get an olive in this?
Huh?

-Seriously, well done.
-(COOS PROUDLY)
Very impressive.
The thing is,
we thought we might just stay
on the Ark a little longer.
Huh? (GROANS)
Aw! That's right, sit down,
take a load off.
(COUGHS WEAKLY)
Erm, let me get you a drink!
-(PANTING) Hey, guys!
-(ALL YELP)
What did I miss, eh?
(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)
How long have I journeyed on
Just to hear your voice on the wind?
Head in the clouds
All I see is horizon
Thinking aloud
That the price to keep my eyes on
Was already near...
When all around us has come undone
Our dreams on hold and our songs unsung
We can't go back to what we knew
But I stand for hope
When I stand with you
How can I keep holding on
To a dream that's fading away?
Searching for home in the wrong direction
Never alone with you as my protection
There's nothing to fear
When all around us has come undone
Our dreams on hold and our songs unsung
We can't go back to what we knew
I stand for hope when I stand with you
(INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE)
In times of challenge
We'll work as one
We walk divided
Together we run
And now we're building something new
I stand for hope when I stand with you
Though all around us has come undone
There are dreams to share
and songs to be sung
So hear our voices loud and true
We sing for hope when we sing with you
Together we'll build something new
We stand for hope and we stand
With you
(CREAKING)
DAVE: Dave's log. It's been 147 days
since the great flood.
And only the animals lucky enough to find
a place on the Ark have survived...
well, apart from the fish. (LAUGHS)
I mean, if anything, I'd imagine
they're delighted
with the whole situation.
And being amphibious,
you might think us Nestrians would
abandon ship to explore the big blue,
but that's just not in our nature.
Our motto has always been:
Nestrians never neglect no-one in need!
(SIGHS) I'm not gonna lie,
it hasn't been easy on the Ark.
147 days with no sign of land,
but as head chef on the Ark,
I'm certainly doing my best to maintain
the truce between the carnivores
and the herbivores.
Believe me, cooking 50,000 meals a day
ain't no picnic.
Well, hey, at least eating my food
takes their minds off
eating each other, right?

Well, can you blame him

(SNIFFS, GROANS)
(GRUNTS) Dave, can I have the key
to the food store?
Whoa, whoa, whoa, what do you want
the key to the store for?
Are you checking up on me?
No, I was just...
Hazel, you don't trust me? That's it.
You think that I've been
holding out on you.
You think that I've been
hiding the fact from you
and all the other animals
(QUIETLY)
that we've almost run out of food?
(LOUDLY) Is that what you think?
Well, no. I just wanted an apple, but...
Dave, is there something
you wanna tell me about the food?
-(SHUSHING)
-(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)
(LAUGHS) Lenny!
And how may I
tickle your taste buds today?
What's this one?
Same as yesterday.
Ugh. And this one?
It's a burnt pot of that one.
(SMACKING LIPS)
Listen here, Nestrian,
when I put you in charge of the food,
I expected a lot more
than this rancid sludge.
The thing is, Lenny...
It's Leonard.
And if the food doesn't improve,
I'm putting Nestrian a l'orange
on the menu.
(GULPS)
Enjoy!
(GROWLS)
(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY) The joke's on him.
We ran out of fruit weeks ago.
We what?
(SHUSHING) Not here. We'll talk later.
FINNY: We shouldn't be up here,
we're in enough trouble already.
LEAH: Question. Did our parents tell us
not to build a flying machine?
FINNY: No... But I think it was implied.
LEAH: (SCOFFS) We're in trouble already,
so we might as well have some fun.
(CREAKING)
We don't jump until I'm ready, okay?
-Of course.
-(YELPS)
-Paw promise?
-That's not a thing.
But it could be. It could be our thing.
Never gonna happen.
(GULPS, WHIMPERS)

(SIGHS) What is it now?
What... What if it doesn't work?
I thought you Nestrians
could build anything?
Yeah, but I never built wings before.
I'm just worried that...
Whoa. No worrying.
The last thing we want
is you getting scared
and burping disgusting blue gas
everywhere.
Correction, Nestrians don't
"get scared and burp blue gas".
We emit a malodorous vapor
to ward off foes
when feeling scared! (SCREAMING)

Then aren't we supposed to have
a lot of growing up to do?
(GASPS, WHISPERS) I think they've got us.
(SCOFFS) This isn't a debate, Dave,
we're their parents!
And as parents,
we're gonna punish you, right?
Absolutely!
-Well? Go on, then.

Oh, me! Sure. Yeah.

For the rest of the day. Okay?
Good. Now... (CHUCKLES)
let's hug this out.
Oh, for goodness sake.
Until further notice,
you will be spending your days and nights
in the crow's nest,
where you can keep an eye
on the horizon for land
and we can keep an eye on you.

You want to be treated like grown-ups?
Then start acting like grown-ups.
Crow's nest. Now.
(FINNY HUMMING)
FINNY: Wow, what a view!
This is the best punishment ever!
Ugh! Do you Nestrians
always have to be so upbeat?
Do you Grymps ever stop complaining?
Nope. Speaking of which, I'm hungry.
Let's sneak into the food store.
Uh-uh. Forget it. We're in enough trouble.
Trust me, you don't wanna spend the night
with a hungry Grymp.

your sulky expression.
LEAH: Hmm.
If anything, you look mildly disappointed!
They'll do just fine.
(GRUNTS)
(GRUNTING)
Leah, what if we get caught?
(SIGHS) We won't get caught.
Because your mom said that we...
My mom said we should act like grown-ups.
And grown-ups do whatever they want.
-Which is exactly what we're doing, right?

This is all the food we have left?
-Uh-huh. (GASPS)
-Why didn't you say something?
What, to the 50,000 animals lost at sea?
What would I say?
"If you think you're having fun now,
just wait till the food runs out!"
(BOTH GASP)
How long will it last?
(SIGHS) About five days.
Six if we ask everyone to skip dessert.
-Which they won't.
-(GASPS)
Please tell me you have a plan.
Well, hopefully the Dove will find land
before we all starve to death.
-Huh?
-(CHUCKLES)
-(BOTH GASP)

I need to make this food
go a long, long way.
But don't worry, Hazel.

All the way to the bottom of the ocean.

Oh, good one.
I needed that. Laughter is so important.

Wait for us!
This can't be happening!
(GASPING) Oh, no! Wait!
It's no use, Finny, they're gone.
(GRUNTING)
(FINNY PANTING HEAVILY)
As soon as they see we're missing,
they'll come back for us.
Totally. I'm not worried.
Me neither. (PANTING)
DAVE: Well, that's Leah and Finny fed.
Only 49,998 animals to go.
Any ideas on where exactly
you're gonna pull their food out of?
I told you, I'm working on it.
And, hey,
the kids could spot land any minute.
They're certainly taking
their look-out duties seriously.
Haven't moved all morning.
See? All kids need is a little discipline
to keep out of trouble.
Ah.
LEAH: (SIGHS)
I don't think they're coming back.
They will. And until then,
we'll just have to make the most of it.
The most of what? There is no "it"!
There's just bloodthirsty sharks
and miles and miles of nothing!
(SCRATCHING)
Okay, what are you doing?
Making a hook. (BLOWS)
What for?
For this!
-That's incredible!
-It was easy, really.
I just took a little wood from our raft
to make the rod
and then plucked a few of my hairs
to make the line.
(SHRIEKS)
(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)
I can brush that right out.
All right, let's go fishing!
-DAVE: zuppa del giorno, va bene?
-(CHIMPANZEE GRUMBLES)
We're nearly out.
And just look at that line!
MALE HYENA: Oh, I'm so hungry
I could eat a horse!
(LAUGHING) Relax.
All we have to do is convince
the animals to eat less.
How are you gonna do that?
(LAUGHING) Watch and learn, Hazel,
watch and learn.
-Next!
-Ugh.
(SNIFFS)
There's a hair in this.
Really? Where?
Right there. And it's purple.
Just like yours.
Pfft! Impossible!
I think I'd know if I were missing a hair.
Oh! Then again,
I can't see my butt from here.
Huh? (GAGS)
I can keep this up all week.
We'll be lucky if the rest lasts

It's for the big celebration tonight.
We're making this giant Patch and...
No, I don't wanna ruin the surprise.
What's a Patch?
Patch isn't a "what," she's a "who".
Huh?
And 50 years ago today,
she built this colony as a shelter
for all Nestrians.
A shelter from what?
From the outside world, of course!
It's not like us Nestrians didn't try
to make a life out there.
(LION GROWLS)
But no matter where we went
or how far we travelled,
we were never safe.
Even when we discovered
our true destiny as sea creatures,
danger was never far away.
And that's why Patch built
this magnificent colony,
a secret haven,
where we would finally be protected
from the outside world.
And tonight, we're celebrating
her amazing achievement.
We're here!
(LIGHT MUSIC PLAYING)
(COOS)
(GASPS)
SHARK: Huh?
FEMALE NESTRIAN 1: Wow!
FEMALE NESTRIAN 2: Right!
The ceremonial robes are ready.
How do I look?
Like a mighty, majestic chicken.
Can we lose the seagrass?
Hmm... I guess.
I see our guest has arrived.
Hi.
Come, come, my child, don't be shy.
You're safe now.
You've found your way home.
Thanks. But I can't stay.
I have to find my friends.
There are other Nestrians out there?
We must organise a search party!
No, not Nestrians.
Jelly is a jellyfish,
and Leah, she's my best friend,
is a Grymp.
-CHIEF CLYDE: Hmm?
-Your best friend is a Grymp?
Oh, boy. Here we go.
After we find Jelly and Leah,
do you think we can find the Ark too?
Didn't you just escape from the Ark?
Escape? No, I fell overboard.
It wasn't really my fault.
I'm hoping I won't be in too much trouble.
Anyway, they won't care once they see
all the food you guys have here!
Young man, I'm afraid we can't help you
find your friends, or the Ark.
What? Why not?
(SIGHS)
Look at me!
I have creatures, just like your friend
"the Grymp," to thank for this.
I know, but...
Then you'll know I built this colony
to keep Nestrians safe
from those meat-eating beasts.
And now you wanna bring them here?
Things are different now!
-There's a truce on the Ark.
-Hmm?
FINNY: And the animals have learned
to live together.
No chance. It's my job
to do what's best for the colony.
Fine, I'll find them myself.
I'm sorry, child,
but we have just one rule here.
Stay secret. Stay safe. Stay sweet.
That's three rules.
And you cannot keep me here.
What choice do we have?
We can't risk you
leading those savages to us.
Don't worry, you'll love it here.
It's the safest place on Earth!
-(RUMBLING)
-FINNY: Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
-(RUMBLING)
-(BOTH YELPING)
What was that?
(OBJECTS RATTLING)
What was that?
(CHUCKLES) You know,
it happens so much these days,
we don't even notice any more.
Just the colony settling after the flood.
You'll get used to it.
Now, if you don't mind,
I must prepare for the celebrations.
Feel free to explore your new home.
-(GRUNTS ANGRILY)
-Oh, by the way,
there's a party tonight.
-That will take your mind off things.
-(GRUNTS ANGRILY)
Don't let him out of your sight.
And I want scouts on the lookout
for the Ark and any other intruders.
Yes, ma'am.
(WALTZY MUSIC PLAYING)
-(FLAMINGO SIGHS)
-BISON: It's just so ridiculous...
FLAMINGO: I mean,
we really need to stand together...
As if the food wasn't bad enough,
now they don't even show up to serve it!
All right, calm down.
There's probably
a perfectly good explanation.
There is. They don't care no more.
And they put...
-(WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY)
-(GASPS)
-Purple butt fuzz in the breakfast?
-Mm-hmm.
(GAGS, RETCHING)
Right, that's it.
DAVE: (PANTING) Okay, okay,
I checked the upper deck,
I checked the lower deck,
I checked the bridge...
I even checked the poop deck.
Phew-hew-hew! Not a pretty sight.
And I can't find them! (WHEEZES)
Any luck here?
-Those are Leah's claw marks.
-Huh?
They must have fallen overboard
with all the food!
(GASPS) No!
(LENNY CLEARS THROAT)
Hi, guys.
Did he just say all the food is gone?
-(ANIMALS GASP)
-Hey, guys, what did I miss?
(ANIMALS SCREAMING)
JELLY: Oh... Is it getting hotter?
(SIGHING)
Oh, it's definitely getting hotter.
And it's making my water hotter.
-Can you change my water?
-(ANNOYED GRUNT)
Ugh. Why do I have to change your water?
Because you're the grown-up, right?
-(GIGGLES)
-Ugh! Fine.
(GASPS)
Whoa. Nice! You know what?
I think our luck is changing.
Better?
(SIGHS DEEPLY) Much better.
Oh! Hi there! Who are you?
Huh?
Hide!
(LEAH GRUNTING)
(MALE GUARD GROANING)
-(BOTH GRUNT)
-LEAH: Ouch.
(BOTH GRUNTING)
FEMALE GUARD: Don't let her get away!
MALE GUARD: (GROANS) I'm right behind you.
-(GASPS)
-FEMALE GUARD: Come on!
MALE GUARD: Oh oh.. Right, here we go.
Huh...
(GRUNTING)
(GRUNTS)
(PANTING)
FEMALE GUARD: Where are you going?
(GASPS, ECHOES)
BOTH: Huh?
(GASPS)
It's the Ark! (ECHOES)
MALE GUARD: Hey, did you hear that?
(QUIETLY) Hello!
Hey! Over here!
I'm over here!
(YELPING)
(GRUNTING)
Ow! (GROANS)
-(SIZZLING)
-Huh?
Ow, my butt!
-Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! My feet!
-(RUMBLING)
Huh?
(WHIMPERS)
Lava!
(YELPING)
FEMALE GUARD: Oh, no.
MALE GUARD: What is it? Can you see her?
FEMALE GUARD: No, but that's the Ark!
MALE GUARD: Oh, no.
First we get our butts kicked
by the Grymp,
then we lose her, and now this!
What are you going to tell Clyde?
Me? Why do I have to tell him?
-(GROANS)
-(BOTH GASP)
-(BURPS)
-(LEAH COUGHING)
(GRUNTS)
Erm, if anyone asks,
this all happened
in a much cooler way, okay?
(LAUGHING) Yeah!
(ANIMALS GROWLING AND JEERING)
(DAVE WHIMPERING)
Don't worry, I got this.
Any final words?
-Yeah.
-Whoa.
See you in smell!
-(INHALES DEEPLY)
-(ALL GASP)
DAVE: Huh?
(DEJECTEDLY) Oh.
I'll ask you again. Any final words?
-(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)
-(GRUNTS)
Leave this to me. (GROWLING)
(GASPS)
Land. Land ahoy!
-(ANIMALS LAUGHING)
-Nice try.
She's right! Land ahoy! Land ahoy!
We're saved. Set course for the island!
(GORILLAS LAUGHING)
(BOTH YELP)
(STRAINING)
Er... Do you think
the kids might be there?
Let's find out. (GRUNTS)
Huh?
Hey! What are you doing?
I don't know who or what you guys are,
but you have to let me go!
MALE GUARD: (LAUGHS) I don't think so.
Mama Leah!
LEAH: But my friend needs me!
The volcano...
I have to get her out of there!
(GASPS)
FEMALE GUARD: A volcano?
Your friend is a volcano?
LEAH: No. She's a jellyfish.
MALE GUARD: The jellyfish is a volcano?
LEAH: No. Nobody's a volcano.
My friend, a jellyfish,
is up there on her own.
FEMALE GUARD: Oh, I get it.
The jellyfish's name is Volcano.
MALE GUARD:
Well, I'm glad we cleared that up.
MALE GUARD: But hang on a second.
If you're friends with a volcano,
you should be careful!
You never know when they're gonna go off.
You could get covered in jelly
or anything!
JELLY: Whoa!
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
(PA CHIMES)
FEMALE NESTRIAN ON PA: (IN SWEET TONE)
Here is a little reminder.
Our beloved leader Patch
will be attending the party tonight,
so make sure your fur is well groomed,
-and behave yourselves. (CHUCKLES)
-(GASPS) Finny!
JELLY: Yay!
(BACKING ALARM BEEPING)
CHIMPANZEE: Keep coming, keep coming.
Loads of room.
(RUMBLING)
Well done, sir.
Fits like a glove.
(ALL CHEERING)
(GASPS) Over there!
DAVE: A raft!
(ELEPHANT TRUMPETING)
-DAVE: Finny...
-(BOTH GRUNTING)
Leah? Huh?
-Finny?
-Look at this!
BOTH: Oh, they're alive!
And they must be somewhere on this island.
-(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING ON SPEAKERS)
-(EXCITED CHATTERING)
FINNY: Hmm...
Not in the mood for dancing, huh?
If you were told you'd never see
your family or friends again,
would you be dancing?
(PANTING) Clyde!
There's something you need to see.
Chief Clyde. I mean,
how hard is it to call me Chief Clyde?
But you don't understand. This is epic!
(SIGHS) Okay. This is epic, Chief Clyde.
Hmm?
(WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY)
(GASPS) Why didn't you say something?
(ALL CHUCKLE NERVOUSLY)
Keep an eye on him.
And you, don't be such a buzzkill.
You must inform Patch at once.
FEMALE GUARD: Me?
Why do I always have to tell her!
Hmm.
(GRUNTS ANGRILY)
(SCOFFS)
Psst!
Psst!
JELLY: (QUIETLY) Finny! Over here.
Huh? Jelly?
Erm... Is that a pond?
Hmm?
This place is amazing!
It really is a pond!
You're all right! I'm so happy to see you!
Yeah!
-(ELECTRICITY BUZZES)
-(GROANS)
Not again!
(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)
Where's Leah? Is she okay?
No. They took her prisoner!
I saw them take her over that rope bridge.
Huh? Hmm.
(SNIFFING) Huh?
Oh! Candied seaweed! (CLEARS THROAT)
We're under an island?
This is great! I'll find Leah,
but you have to get out of here.
That boy sure likes ponds.
(MUNCHING)
(GASPS) Huh?
(WHIMPERS) Oh, no.
PATCH: (PANTING) This better be important.
(GASPS)
I'm missing my own party.
You didn't tell her?
(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY,
WHISTLES NONCHALANTLY)
You'll wanna see this, Your Nestrian-ness.
PATCH: Hmm...
-Hi!
-(GASPS)
LEAH: Okay, maybe we got off
on the wrong paw.
But you guys are Nestrians, right?
The friendliest creatures on Earth.
You don't cage animals!
What do you know about Nestrians?
Lots! My best friend is a Nestrian.
CHIEF CLYDE: Do you think she means Finny?
LEAH: You've seen Finny? He's here?
Open the door.
Your Nestrian-ness, are you sure
-that's, er...
-Hmm.
Let me get that for you.
(GRUNTS)
Darn seagrass. Look like a fool...
-Is Finny all right?
-Back, Grymp!
-Hey!
-I said, "Back!"
-(RUMBLING)
-(BOTH GRUNTING)
(GASPING)
It's not safe here.
Relax, it's just the colony settling.
No, it's a volcano and it's ready to blow.
We need to leave this place right now!
There may be room on the Ark,
-but we have to get out of here.
-(CHUCKLES)
You want us to go running into the jaws
of your carnivorous friends?
Do I look that stupid?
Well, you are dressed like a chicken.
That's what I said,
but it was too late to lose the seagrass.
(GRUNTS) Clam it!
You're not going anywhere.
But... My friend Jelly is up there.
She won't make it on her own. Please!
Don't let this key out of your sight.
Ugh! You couldn't wash it first?
That's my mouth!
Er, one more thing,
Your High-Nestrian-ness.
(GROANS) What now?
Erm, it's the Ark.
It's landed.
I need to address the colony.
(PANTING)
(GASPS)
(WHIMPERING)
(YELPING)
(ALL SHUSHING)
-Erm, I lost the boy.
-(PATCH GRUNTS ANGRILY)
Come on!
Here 's an idea. Go find him!
Great. Now we're missing the party
because of you.
(SADLY) Oh.
(ALL SIGH IN RELIEF)
Thanks!
Wait, what are you guys doing here?
We've come to see...
ALL: The horrible monster from the Ark.
What monster?
It's got sharp claws.
And huge teeth.
And golden stripes on its head.
That's no monster, that's my best friend.
Do you know where she is?
ALL: Yeah. (LAUGH WICKEDLY)
(KIDS WHIMPERING)
It must be around here somewhere.
I'm scared.
Don't worry, kids,
she wouldn't hurt a fly!
-(BANGING ON DOOR)
-(KIDS SCREAM)
LEAH: When I get out of here,
I'll crush you all like flies!
(ALL BURP, SCREAM)
KID: She is a monster!
(CHUCKLES) Leah!
LEAH: Finny!
FINNY: I just knew
you were the horrible monster!
Wait, I'm the what?
(GRUNTING)
It's locked.
That old Nestrian lady hid the key
in her talking necklace.
Patch? Don't worry, I'll get it.
Hurry up! We've got to get out of here
before that volcano blows!
FINNY: Volcano?
We've got a lot of catching up to do.
FINNY: Mm-hmm.
-And Finny?
-Yeah?
It's good to see you.
You too.
-(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING ON SPEAKERS)
-(CHEERING)
(TRUMPETING RHYTHMICALLY)
-(MUSIC ENDS)
-(ALL CHEERING)
I hope you've all had a wonderful night.
And before you go...
MALE NESTRIAN: Open your gift! Open it!
(ALL CHEERING)
I'm afraid there's an important matter
I need to discuss first.
(ALL GROAN)
They really worked very hard on it.
-You should probably take a look.
-Of course.
How exciting.
(ALL CHEERING)
CHIEF CLYDE: Lower the curtain!
(ALL CHEERING)
(SQUEALING)
-(GASPS)
-Wait for it...
(NESTRIANS CHEERING)
Boom!
Oh.
(CHEERING CONTINUES)
And you haven't even seen the best part.
For years to come,
Nestrians can look down
upon your magnificent colony
from inside the observation butt!
(CHEERING)
Oh! Er...
You hate it. She hates it!
(ALL GROAN)
No, no, no! I love it.
Really? She loves it!
(ALL CHEERING)
Did he just say "observation butt"?
(QUIETLY) We're not calling it that.
(IN NORMAL VOICE)
What a lovely, er... gesture.
And it warms my heart
to see us all together.
(MALE GUARD PANTING)
PATCH: Rejected by the rest
of the animal kingdom...
FEMALE GUARD: I'll go this way.
PATCH: We built this colony as a safe place
where we could flourish and...
Whoa! The colony rules!
Thank you, madam. (CLEARS THROAT)
And how we have flourished.
Proving to ourselves and the world
that we don't need anyone else.
However, I have just been informed
that the Ark,
full of hungry animals,
has landed on our island.
(ALL GASPING, CLAMOURING)
No need to panic.
As long as we stay down here,
they won't even know we exist.
Oh, er, didn't you say they was hungry?
-Starving! They've been at sea for months.
-(WORRIED CHATTER)
But don't worry, the food on the island
will soon run out
and they'll have to move on.
Shouldn't we help them?
(ALL AGREEING)
Help them?
Letting them starve
doesn't seem like the Nestrian way.
What with the kindness and caring and all?
(ALL AGREEING)
You want to let them in here
to share your food? Be my guest!
But what do you think they'll be eating
when the food runs out?
-(ALL MURMURING)
-Rocks?
No, not rocks.
You!
-Who, me?
-(ALL GASP)
(SIGHS)
No.
All of you!
(ALL GASP)
(ALL CLAMOURING)
(CRYING)
Exactly. So it's settled.
Nobody comes in and nobody goes out.
And remember...
ALL: Stay secret. Stay safe. Stay sweet.
That's right, my sweet Nestrians.
Now, sleep well, everybody!
See you tomorrow
for another day in paradise.
(ALL CHEERING)
Double the guards on the exits.
The colony is on lockdown.
Yes, ma'am!
(NESTRIANS CONTINUE CHATTERING)
(PATCH PANTING)
PATCH: Observation butt... (SIGHS)
(GRUNTING) Darn seagrass!
HAZEL: Leah!

HAZEL: Finny!
Leah! Finny!
BOTH: Where are you?
I don't like this.
-JELLY: You look like Mama Leah...
-(BOTH GASPING)
...only bigger.
Who said that?
And you look like Papa Finny,
(GIGGLES) only purple!
You know Finny and Leah?
Where are they?
-Through that rock.
-DAVE: Huh?
HAZEL: (WHISPERS) Look!
Take cover!
MALE GUARD: Is it me
or is that tunnel getting longer?
Huh? (YELPS)
Phew. And it's getting hot out here too,
isn't it, huh?
(GASPS) Nestrians!
-They're the ones who took Leah!
-What?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
We Nestrians are the good guys!
Let me talk to them and I will...
No talking. We do this the Grymp way.

I'll inform Patch.

Where are you taking us, buttfuzz?

I've gotta stop doing that!
We're sorry, Mom. About everything.
Let's not worry about that now.
(GASPS, GROWLS) I knew it!
I don't understand it.
I distinctly remember ordering
those two strangely unfamiliar guards
to take them here.
What?
Oh.
Whoa! Look at this place!
I know, right?
(GASPS) Does that statue
have an observation butt?
Yup! And it shoots confetti
from the trunk!
-Nice touch!
-Uh-huh.
Guys! Come on! What about the volcano?
Er, what volcano? (GASPS)
Stop right there!
And give us back our uniforms!
PATCH: Guards! Seize them!
Patch, you have to let us go
and warn the other animals!
-They're in great danger!
-Yeah!
Erm... What danger?
You disappoint me, Finny.
I built this paradise
to keep us Nestrians safe
from those treacherous creatures.
If you keep us here,
you haven't built a paradise,
you've built a prison.
And you built it under a volcano!
Erm, what volcano?
That's enough about a volcano!
Even if it were true,
we'd be safer down here
than up there with those carnivores.
If our time on the Ark
has taught us anything, it's...
Never ever get into a tickle fight
with a hippo.
No, Dave. It has taught us
that it is possible for us animals
to put our differences aside and...
No more speeches!
Have it your way!
Dave, Finny!

There is no volcano.
And even if there were, we're Nestrians,
we can always escape to the sea.
Of course! You're right, you're right.

FEMALE NESTRIAN: (ON PA)
My fellow Nestrians,
our beloved leader, Patch, has initiated
the emergency evacuation protocol.
Please proceed
to your assigned escape route.
And remember, the situation is never
too dire to give one's neighbour a hug.
What about all those savage animals
up there?
We can only hope Finny was right
about the truce with the meat-eaters.
We need to get all the Nestrians
safely to open water.
Yes, ma'am!
That means absolutely no contact
with the carnivores.
-Yes, ma'am!
-You don't stop for anything or anyone.
-Yes, ma'am! Right away!

-(NESTRIANS GASP)

Okay, everyone,
keep moving towards the beach.
Nothing to see here.

That's it, keep moving.
Chief Clyde, we need your help

We need all of you!
Er, I have strict orders.
But you can't turn your back on us now!
The entire animal kingdom is at stake!

we've got an Ark to rebuild!
(ALL CHEERING)
Thanks, Chief Clyde.
Thanks! You can call me Clyde!
All right, everyone, we need
to work together as a team.
Dave?
Okay. Elephants, let's gather up the wood.
And we need some vines for binding.
Uh, giraffes, I'm looking at you.
(ALL CHEERING)
MALE ELEPHANT: All right, let's do this.
Light as a feather, no problem!
Pass it down!
FEMALE NESTRIAN: Throw it to me!
MALE NESTRIAN: Okay!
I got it!
Oh... My games room.
Oh, dear!
(DOVE COOING)
-(VOLCANO RUMBLING AND EXPLODING)
-Huh?
Oh, yeah.
(DOVE COOING)
(BUSY CHATTER)
KIDS: Finny! Finny!
-Primrose needs to tell you something!
-What is it?
(KIDS PANTING)
It's Patch! She's still down there!
-What?
-She...
She saved us. But then the statue fell.
And... (GASPING) And then...
No...
(PRIMROSE SIGHING)
Don't even think about it.
It's too dangerous.
Somebody's gotta go back for her.
Then I'm coming too.
You'd never survive the swim.
Besides, one of us needs to stay behind
and take care of Jelly.
(JELLY GIGGLES)
(HUFFS) Hurry back.
I will.
Paw promise?
Paw promise.
(GRUNTS)
Don't worry, Jelly, he'll be fi... Huh?
JELLY: Jelly flop!
What? No! Come back!
JELLY: Whoo-hoo!
Patch! Where are you?
-(RUMBLING)
-Huh?
(GASPS) Patch!
Patch?
(WEAKLY) Finny. What are you doing here?
Nestrians never neglect no-one in need!
(PATCH GROANING)
PATCH: This was supposed to be
our forever home.
Now look at it!
My life's work is... (COUGHING)
...destroyed.
(RUMBLING)
We have to leave now!
Great! Because I'm really starting
to like the sound of this Ark.
(GROANING) I don't think I...
(COUGHS) ...can.
Stay with us, Patch.
The Nestrians need you!
The Nestrians need a strong leader now.
They'll be better off...
(COUGHS) ...without me.
That's not true.
They need you now more than ever.
The Nestrians are gonna
have to start again.
Do you really think they can build
another colony without you?
(BREATHING HOARSELY)
Another colony?
Patch.
Patch?
Wake up, Patch!
Wake up, Patch!
I... I think... I think she's gone.
No...
-Finny...
-Jelly?
Is the old lady asleep?
I'm afraid she's not asleep, Jelly.
You mean...
(SNIFFLES)
Come on, Jelly,
we have to go! (YELPS)
Argh, what is wrong with me?
-(GIGGLES)
-Wait!
(GASPS)
Ah! Come here, Jelly.
(ELECTRICITY BUZZING)
Clear!
(PATCH GROANING)
Ouch.
Morning, sleepy head.
FINNY AND CLAM:
You're alive! You're alive!
Very much so.
(RUMBLING)
FINNY: We gotta go. Follow me!
No! I can't swim any more.
There's no way out for me.
Oh, yes, there is!
How?
In your butt!
Huh?
Huh?
Hold on, everyone! (STRAINING)
(GASPING)
(THUDDING)
Faster, Finny, faster!
I know! But how?
What?
Jelly! Hit me!
Really?
Do it, Jelly! Now!
You got it!
-(ELECTRICITY BUZZING)
-(YELPING)
JELLY: Yay!
(FINNY GROANING)
JELLY: Whee!
FINNY: (SHAKILY) Ahh! Here we come!
(GRUNTS)
(BURBLES)
-Ha-ha, we made it!
-(GASPS)
(PATCH GRUNTS, CHUCKLES)
-(ALL GASP)
-Oh, no!
FINNY: This isn't the Ark.
(ANIMALS CLAMOURING)
MALE ELEPHANT: Oh, please, come on,
let's get this done!
Come on! Oh!
(GRUNTING) There you go. All done!
Anchors away, Captain!
LENNY: Well done!
Quickly now, keep moving.
Giraffes, hippos, hyaenas,
prairie dogs, check.
Boarding complete, Captain!
Very well, then let's get out of here!
-Wait! We can't leave!
-Huh?
We have to!
The whole island is about to blow!
But Finny is still out there!
-What?
-He went back down to save Patch!
And Jelly went after him!
(SIGHS) Kids.
-(EXPLOSIONS)
-(ALL GASP)
(GASPS) That's got to be...
DAVE, HAZEL, AND LEAH: Finny!
You go back on board!
We'll go and get Finny!
-But, I...
-Forget it! It's too dangerous!
Back soon!
Hurry up, we can't wait forever!
(GASPS) Hmm...
(BOTH GASP)
Ah... (CHUCKLES)
That should get their attention!
I'm sorry, Finny. I truly am.
It's not your fault.
Oh, but it is.
I've been so blinded by my past
that I have taken away your future.
I should have listened to your friend.
Well, why don't you
tell her that yourself?
LEAH: Hey!
Finny! Jelly!
FINNY: It's Leah!
JELLY: Mama Leah!
(CHUCKLES)
Jump on!
Yeah!
(ALL WHOOPING AND LAUGHING)
(BOTH PANTING)
It's useless. There is no way through!
Same here.
(DISTANT WHOOPING)
-Hey, Mom!
-Hey, Dad!
-(JELLY WHOOPS)
-DAVE: There they are!
(ALL WHOOPING AND LAUGHING)
BOTH: Oh, no!
(ALL SCREAMING)
-(BOTH GASP)
-DAVE: They're coming in hot!
(EXPLOSIONS)
LENNY: We can't wait any longer!
(ALL SCREAMING)
BOTH: Huh?
Look! Look, everyone, it's Finny!
And is that... Patch? (GRUNTS)
What on earth are they doing up there?
They're on fire!
(ALL CONTINUE SCREAMING)
(ALL YELLING)
-CHIEF CLYDE: I got you!
-(ALL SIGH)
Are all accounted for?
(GASPS)
(BOTH PANTING)
Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!
(BOTH SCREAMING)
(BOTH GRUNT)
Go! Go! Go!
CHIEF CLYDE: All Nestrians, in position!
Ready!
Set!
(ALL INHALE DEEPLY)
Blow!
Whoa!
(ALL GRUNTING)
(DAVE AND HAZEL PANTING)
HAZEL: Leah! (LAUGHS)
DAVE: Finny!
FINNY: Dad.
-(DISTANT EXPLOSIONS)
-ALL: Huh?
Close call. (CHUCKLES)
I don't know about you guys,
but I think this calls for a...
JELLY: Group hug! Yay!
FINNY: No, no, no, no, no!
(JELLY GIGGLES)
DAVE: Dave's log, day 173.
And welcome to the Ark 2.0!
Just when we thought
life on the Ark couldn't get any worse...
Boom! It couldn't get any better!
And all that was needed
was a few hundred Nestrians.
But it's not just the Ark
that's looking better.
Now that the Nestrians have taught us all
a thing or two about seafood,
-the menu's not too shabby either.
-(FOOD SEARING)
MALE WOMBAT:
Oh, I'll have another one of those.
(LAUGHS) Ah, this is the life.
I have to admit it, Finny, you were right.
And you said seagrass
wouldn't work on a barbecue.
(MUNCHING)
Actually, I meant about life
being good on the Ark.
-(CHUCKLES)
-Cheers!
Oh! Right! (CHUCKLES) Yeah!
But the seagrass works too.
(CHUCKLES)
(GRUNTS ANGRILY) You disobeyed me.
Your orders were not to engage
with the wild animals of the Ark,
General Clyde.
Er, I'm sorry about that.
But actually, it's Chie... Wait, what?
Really? Hah. A promotion?
You showed real leadership.
It was the right thing to do.
Oh, somebody needs a hug! Aw.
CHIMPANZEE: Here's your drinks, madame.
Two snuggles on the beach.
JELLY: I can't believe
that we were in a storm,
a shipwreck, a kidnapping,
a prison break, a collapsing colony,
a submarine, a crash landing,
and a huge erupting volcano!
(GASPS) That was so much fun!
Well, from now on, being sensible is fun.
When you ran off on me,
I was worried sick!
Leah's right. If we're going to be
taking care of you,
there's got to be some ground rules,
young lady.
(CHUCKLING) Wow. You know,
you two really have grown up a lot.
Yeah. Maybe it is time we started
treating you like grown-ups.
Are you nuts?
We don't want to be grown-ups!
Ugh. What's with all the pressure?
Why can't you just let us be kids?
Erm... Okay.
BOTH: (SIGH) Thank you!
Oh, excuse me?
Two peanut bars and two cocotinis.
DAVE: Oh!
CHIMPANZEE: Your order, madam.
-FINNY: Yum.
-Er, can I get an olive in this?
Huh?
(GRUNTING)
(GURGLES)
Now, that's what I call service.
(GASPS) Wait, it's the Dove! He's back!
-(DOVE COOS WEAKLY)
-(FOOTSTEPS RUMBLING)
(ALL MURMURING)
Does this mean you found land?
-(COOS)
-(ALL CHEER)
And we can finally leave the Ark?
(COOS)
(ALL GASP)
(ALL GROAN AND MURMUR)
LENNY: Well done!
-Seriously, well done.
-(COOS PROUDLY)
Very impressive.
The thing is,
we thought we might just stay
on the Ark a little longer.
Huh? (GROANS)
Aw! That's right, sit down,
take a load off.
(COUGHS WEAKLY)
Erm, let me get you a drink!
-(PANTING) Hey, guys!
-(ALL YELP)
What did I miss, eh?
(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)
How long have I journeyed on
Just to hear your voice on the wind?
Head in the clouds
All I see is horizon
Thinking aloud
That the price to keep my eyes on
Was already near...
When all around us has come undone
Our dreams on hold and our songs unsung
We can't go back to what we knew
But I stand for hope
When I stand with you
How can I keep holding on
To a dream that's fading away?
Searching for home in the wrong direction
Never alone with you as my protection
There's nothing to fear
When all around us has come undone
Our dreams on hold and our songs unsung
We can't go back to what we knew
I stand for hope when I stand with you
(INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE)
In times of challenge
We'll work as one
We walk divided
Together we run
And now we're building something new
I stand for hope when I stand with you
Though all around us has come undone
There are dreams to share
and songs to be sung
So hear our voices loud and true
We sing for hope when we sing with you
Together we'll build something new
We stand for hope and we stand
With you
