The Bat-Bat

1
[upbeat music playing]
Mm. Mmm.
Hmm.
- Mm.
- [tooth squeaking]
[giggling]
[loud cackling]
Uh, what was that?
Maybe there's a comedy show in the jungle
and somebody just told an amazing joke.
We've heard that cackle before,
and it sounds closer than ever.
[loud cackling]
[pants, grunts]
[all] Whew.
So what do you say we get off this island
today as soon as possible?
Yes!
But how?
By flying.
[adventurous music playing]
[mysterious music playing]
[old-time piano playing]
Oh, that was too close for comfort.
We almost got sproinged into space.
- So what do we do?
- [both] Hmm
Okay, call me kooky.
But what if you used your wings to fly?
[laughing] Okay.
Our wings. Yeah.
Uh, y hey! Yeah!
- Our wings!
- [bird screeches]
How do we use these things?
- Hmm.
- Hmm?
[whimpering]
- What was that?
- Could be that cackling creature.
[thunder rumbles]
[all gasping]
[all screaming]
W-who are you?
I am the Bat-Bat,
sworn protector of this mysterious island.
What are you protecting
the island from, exactly?
Anything that threatens it, like the trash
or maybe a weird-looking weasel
that has two faces.
Seen one of those?
[cackling]
Mostly, I protect the island
from that fiend,
my greatest foe.
What is it? It's freaking us out.
You're scared of the Jok-al?
- [Jok-al cackling]
- [whimpering]
Whew. I was worried
you mighta been one of his minions.
- What's a Jok-al?
- [clears throat]
You should leave here before you find out.
Can't you see we're trying to?
We're trying to learn to fly.
I can't see! I'm blind because
- you know bat?
- Oh, I'm sorry.
- I had no idea.
- Don't be. I see fine with my ears,
and I fly by listening
to the world around me.
Wait, you can fly. We want to fly.
Any chance you can teach us?
Well, I am sworn to help the helpless.
So, fine. I'll do it.
- Yay!
- Whoo-hoo!
But no questions.
- Any other islands nearby?
- Do you live alone?
- There anything to eat besides coconuts?
- And how dangerous is this Jok-al?
Silence!
Your training begins here.
- [coughing]
- Where'd he go?
[Bat-Bat] You must expand your horizons.
Look up!
What's that got to do with flying?
Trees are a bridge between land and air,
where the sky above must first
become the earth below.
[mutters]
[Bat-Bat] Grab some branch
and start hanging.
[panting, grunts]
Hmm.
[grunting]
[grunting, squealing]
[grunts] So how long are we
supposed to hang exactly?
[snoring]
[groans] Well, that was a waste of time.
- [distant cackling]
- Mia, wait!
[snoring]
What about our training?
- Training to do what?
- [Bat-Bat] Hah!
[all scream]
You seek answers
but know not the questions.
Trust me, you will fly,
but first you must flap.
Flap up, flap down,
flap up, flap down,
flap up, flap down.
Hmm.
Hmm?
[Bat-Bat] Faster.
Your wings have always been there,
but you must view them differently
to use them differently.
Flap up, flap down.
Again.
[dramatic music playing]
Ahh. That's the stuff.
[Mia grunts]
Where are we going now?
We often cannot see the path ahead
until it is behind us.
Uh, I can't see any path
in all this
fog!
Now I can't see anything.
[both grunt]
What are we supposed to do now?
You all must learn
to navigate your surroundings
- in all conditions.
- Mm-hm.
You hesitate. Why?
Because I'm deaf in one ear.
My bow is a device that helps me hear,
but just a little.
I was born this way.
[Bat-Bat] So why would this hold you back?
Any weakness can be a strength.
Look at me.
I'm blind, but I own the night.
But it's daytime.
For real? [laughs]
I thought it seemed
especially warm this evening.
No matter!
[clears throat] Your task is simple.
Find your friends without your sight.
Uh, okay.
Buddy! Mia!
Hamy?
[Hamylton] Right here! This way, Rosie.
- [Mia] Just follow my voice!
- [grunts]
Listen to the jungle, not your friends.
How do I do that?
Feel the air with your feathers.
[Rosie] Wait!
I don't know what that means.
[groans]
Hmm.
Quicksand? Help!
Hang on, Rosie! We'll save you.
No. To soar in the sky,
you must first lift
your feet from the ground.
They're stuck inside the ground!
Then you must find a way out.
[grunting]
[voice cackling]
[whimpering]
[grunting]
[dramatic music playing]
[grunts]
- Rosie!
- [Hamylton] Are you okay?
Phew, that was close.
Exactly what is your deal?
I told you, I am the night
No, you are just the bat
that hangs from trees all
[deep voice] "Only when you
stop brushing your teeth
can you truly taste your food."
[normal] Or some other nonsense.
- I like that. You get me.
- I get nothing!
It seems that I must show you
that some lessons
require leaping before looking
[all yelling]
[all exclaim]
- Wow.
- [giggling]
Uh-huh. [laughing]
Whoo-hoo!
[dramatic music playing]
Ooh!
[laughing]
[grunting]
Never fear.
Just a few scrapes and bruises.
I'm still getting used to
this place with my echolocation.
And that was a very quiet tree.
You all saw it.
- [groans]
- Where are you going?
Home. You saw that, Rosie.
That bat can barely fly himself,
which means he can't teach us how to.
That flap up, flap down stuff
helped get me out of the quicksand.
Look, stay if you want,
but it's getting dark,
and there's still some crazy
laughing monster out there.
[cackling echoes]
Go with your friends.
I'm sorry, Bat-Bat.
I think my friends are just tired.
[clears throat] It's okay, Rosie.
The important thing
is that you trusted me.
I did. I do.
I want to.
Just remember, above all else,
trust yourself.
[cackling echoes]
Buddy?
[whimpering]
[whimpering]
[cackling]
[snarling]
[yells]
Egg-splorers! It's the Jok-al!
- Oh!
- [loud cackling]
- [Bat-Bat] Any weakness can be a strength.
- What strength? How?
[cackling continues]
[Bat-Bat] Feel the air with your feathers.
[soft ringing]
[silence]
Mmm
[wind whooshing]
[muffled sounds]
[grunts]
Whoa! Bat-Bat was right!
- [cackling, snarling]
- [yelps] It's the Jok-al!
Listen, I know when he's gonna attack.
So when I say jump, flap and jump.
[all grunt]
[dramatic music playing]
[cackling continues]
Jump now!
[whistles] Hey, Jok-al,
I got a joke for you.
- Jump!
- [grunts]
[snarling]
And don't forget about us.
- [water splashes]
- I learned a few things from Bat-Bat too.
He's stuck! We beat the Jok-al!
I can't believe it!
[Bat-Bat] I can.
You learned my final lesson.
To believe in yourself.
Thanks for that.
And for teaching me
a weakness can be a strength.
I'm sorry I doubted you.
We learned some stuff that can help us
stay safe until we find another way home.
- Like showing us how to defeat
- [cackling echoes]
the Jok-al.
He escaped!
Huh. I guess your nemesis
roams free once more.
Ey, Bat-Bat?
Oh, I hate when he does that.
On that note, it's getting pretty dark.
We should get out of this jungle.
Hmm.
Follow me, friends.
I'll use the ocean breeze
to feel our way back.
Yeah! [laughing]
- [Mia] Whoo-hoo!
- [laughing]
[cackling]
[dramatic music playing]
[chirp]
