Dawn of the Croods (2015) s01e13 Episode Script

1 In the Croodaceous Era, we really didn't have that much stuff.
So, we kept the stuff we did have very close to us, so that it would always be safe.
Or so we thought.
Oh! Krispy Bear.
Krispy Bear, are you in there? Hunting rock? Hunting rock, where are you? Uh, Mom, Dad, why would our things be all the way out here? 'Cause, Eep, when stuff goes missing, it can only mean one thing.
It got up and walked away.
Well, I know, but even Krispy Bear? I don't think he'd abandon Sandy.
Oh, she's so upset, she can barely kill.
Cheer up, Sandy.
I found something in the cave this morning that's even better than Krispy Bear! See the leaf? The snuggly yellow leaf? No, you're right.
I got nothing.
Well, if our stuff wants to leave, I say good riddance.
Hear that, walking stick? I don't need you either! No, wait! I didn't mean that! You're the one I lean on! - Come back! - I don't know, guys.
I really don't think our things walked away.
Oh, so you're saying they flew away.
No, not there.
Ow! Hey, move, Snoot! We're looking for our lost stuff.
You move, Grug.
We're looking for our lost stuff.
Wait, you're missing things, too? Of course.
Haven't you heard the news? Today's top story.
Stuff missing from homes all over Ahhh! Valley.
Did it leave because of something you did? Whoa.
Hold on.
So, random stuff in random caves just randomly decided to leave at the same time? There must be a better explanation.
If I just think really hard Get back.
She's gonna blow! I got it! What if someone took our stuff?! Okay.
Eep, a person can't take another person's stuff.
The little voice in our heads that tells us to be nice would never let us.
Yeah, the same voice that tells you not to feed poison berries to annoying neighbors, no matter how much you'd like to.
A-ha! But what if the stuff-taker ignored their little voice? Okay.
Oh, Grug, your daughter says the most wonderfully stupid things.
Wait.
I hear my little voice right now.
What's that? If I can't say something nice, I shouldn't say anything at all? Oh, well, in that case I know, little voice.
No poison berries.
Killjoy.
Well, Grug, we'd better find you a new hunting rock.
You guys wait at home in case our things come back.
What? But what about the stuff-taker? Okay, who wants to help me catch a bad guy and get our stuff back? Good.
We're gonna find out the real story here, the one everyone else has missed.
- Did you take our stuff? - No.
- Did you take our stuff? - Nuh-uh.
No.
Nope.
- Yes! It was me.
- Really? No, I just like getting the attention.
I'll go.
Well, that was everybody.
- What a big, fat waste of time.
- Wrong.
There's one person we haven't asked.
- He's our man.
- You mean me? - No! - Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
The person I meant was Teacher Squawk? All the facts point to him.
One, he's mean to his students, and two, I really want it to be him.
Well, you convinced me.
Sounds like this guy's headed for the slammer.
Nice slammer, Gran! What's the meaning of this? You took everyone's stuff last night, so we're placing you under a - under a Thunk, Gran, and Sandy.
- Nonsense.
I was here last night, solving a class problem.
Lately, students have been sneaking out of detention.
Sorry I ate my homework, but can I come out now? I love teaching.
So, I'm building the pit higher so they can never sneak out again.
But everyone else said they're innocent.
You must've taken our stuff.
Unless Stop that.
Stop that! School is no place for thinking.
That's it! The real stuff-taker lied to us.
Dang! He's always one step ahead.
Ha! It all makes sense.
If the stuff-taker doesn't listen to his little voice, of course he would lie.
But then, who could it be? Well, now that you mention it, you know those brothers, Shouty and Whiny? - Sulk and Bulk? - Eh, sure.
I saw them lurking about late last night, out of their cave and pointing at things.
- Go sit on them.
- Thanks for the tip.
All right, let's see.
New hunting rock, new hunting rock.
Hm.
Good weight.
Nobody's marked it.
Smooth bashing surface.
Oh, let's bonk.
- Nope, it's too gritty.
- Too gritty? Grug, we have been at this all day.
It is a rock.
What more do you need from a rock?! Uh, Ugga, my old hunting rock was a great hunting rock, some might say the best hunting rock, and I am not gonna replace it with the first dumb stone I find.
But it just so happens I'm ready to choose.
I want the one I left right over Hey! Shoo! Hey, bird, that's mine.
You look at me in the eye when you kick dirt at me.
That is it! Ha! Ugga, look.
I got it Grug, I think you're gonna have to give it up.
No.
There's an order to nature, Ugga, and that means this ramu is going to have to accept that I'm in charge.
Bulk, stop fixing your hair.
We gotta go.
It's Sulk.
See? I told you guys if we staked ourselves out in front of their cave, they'd show their faces.
Wait, where is Sulk? I can't see him for some reason.
These are junk.
Let me use yours.
- Hey, give them back! - You've been hogging your hands all day.
Let go, Thunk! Stop acting like a child.
Mine! Give me, give me, give me! Gran, shh! - You've gotta be quiet.
- Oh, relax.
I'd have to scream like crazy for them to hear.
Huh? Hey, that's my - walking stick! - Hmm? Gran-imal attack! - They're getting away.
- Not on my watch.
Whoa! Ow! Pull over! No way.
Hi, Eep.
Wanna hang out? No? Okay, maybe later.
Have fun racing boulders.
Bye! Look out! Get these dinglebats out of our way.
Hit the wailer! I blame you, brother.
They're heading for that train of dust caused by that stampeding girelephant.
Uh-oh.
Only one choice now.
- Yeah, more speed.
- Wait, what? We did it.
We lost them.
We Turn, turn! Whoa! Shouldn't have run, boys.
I always get my man.
- Who, me? - No! Just checking.
Believe us.
We didn't do it.
Liars! We caught you with Gran's stick.
Now, admit it.
Yeah, or we'll throw you in a moler bear hole, and you know what they do to stick-takers in the moler bear holes, don't you? Yeah, I know I'd never make it on the inside of a moler bear's stomach.
Please! We found that stick in our cave.
Uh, we were on our way to give it back to you.
Oh, yeah? Then why'd you run? Uh 'cause you're terrifying? Don't try to sweet-talk me, kid.
You're not getting out of this.
It's okay, Gran.
I know someone who'll loosen their tongues.
Keep that baby away from us! Oh, sorry, boys.
Tracking the creeps who took her bear is the only thing keeping Sandy going.
Now that we found you, I doubt I can Whoops! Get them, Sandy! They took Krispy Bear.
They didn't take Krispy Bear? Uh, Eep, I think they're telling the truth, so we'd better let them go before we get into any more - Mom! Dad! - trouble.
Oh! Snoot and Meep are furious.
Not mention that your sister is even more heartbroken than before.
Sorry, but we heard Bulk and Sulk were out - of their cave last night - To do their homework, counting up the night's creepy sky eyes.
They follow me wherever I go.
Eep, this is not how we raised you, and as the caveman of this cave, I will not stand for it - Ramu! Can we keep him? - No, Thunk, we can't keep him.
This dumb thing just followed me home.
Get it through your thick head, bird.
I am not giving you my rock.
Ow, ow! Ow, ow, ow, ow! Listen, Eep, drop this big, bad stuff-taker nonsense before something really stupid happens.
- Ooooow! - Okay, something stupider.
I should've never listened to my dumb gut.
Yes, you.
Sorry I got us in trouble, guys.
Sorry, Sandy.
I wanted to get Krispy Bear back, but I guess my stuff-taker idea was just plain - Right! - Thunk, what are you saying? Our cave boulder.
It proves you're plain right, Eep.
Think about it.
It's one thing to believe some stuff got up and left the cave.
Of course.
Who wouldn't? But to think the same stuff could push a huge boulder to get out of that cave, now that's crazy.
A person must've done it.
And a person would've left footprints.
- Thunk, those are your footprints.
- So I'm the stuff-taker! Don't! Don't do it! Please, no! I trusted you! Aw, shut your yapping.
We always knew it would end like this.
Thunk, break it up.
- Quiet.
I wanna see who wins.
- Watch out! Sorry, Eep.
I was just too strong for me.
Hey, how did that get there? Oh, I wonder if I know who took the stuff! Teacher Squawk, come quick! Some students got dragged off by moler bears.
Oh, how very sad.
- But I don't have time to - Along with free eggs! - Oh, lead the way.
- Follow me.
Did I mention the free eggs were also - giant eggs with extra creamy centers? - Ooh, tell me more.
He took the bait.
Sandy, go for it.
So, I bet you're wondering why I'm back to thinking Teacher Squawk is the stuff-taker.
- Nah, not really.
- Great! I'll tell you.
First, Sandy's yellow leaf.
Thunk said he found it in our cave this morning, which is strange, 'cause there are no trees that color anywhere near us.
But there is one place in Ahhh! Valley where yellow trees grow.
Ta-da! Oh, I get it now.
You're saying Squawk broke into our cave last night, dragging that yellow leaf with him.
And then, he probably wiped it off one, two, three times.
Gotta admit, that's smart, Eep.
Second, Squawk blamed Bulk and Sulk for taking the stuff, sneaking your walking stick into their cave to throw us off his scent.
Hey, that's genius! And my final hint? Squawk's hands.
They were red from stacking stones, which didn't seem like a big deal at first, until I noticed this! - A red handprint, which can only mean - He murdered them! Murdered? What? No, Gran, nobody's even dead.
- Are you even listening? - I am, Eep.
I heard every word.
Next time, use bait that won't get carried away with the story.
Sorry, Eep.
Saying they were magic eggs that make you live forever just sounded cooler to me.
Okay, bird, you want this so bad? Here.
Come on.
Take it, numbskull.
Fine.
You don't want it anymore, that's on you.
But I am done.
Ow! Is that the real rock? Weird.
Ow, ow, ow! Ow, ow! Ow! Ow! You know what, bird? I'm impressed.
Ow! You're not as dumb as you Ow! - look.
Ow, ow! - Oh, Grug, the kids and Gran are gone.
I bet they're off trying to find Eep's so-called "stuff-taker.
" Now, don't jump to the worst conclusion, honey.
Maybe they're just being chased by a predator.
Oh, they'd better be, or so help me Gee, they could be anywhere.
How can we cover that much grou Ow! Ha! Good idea, bird.
Hyah! Go, bird! Whoo-hoo-hoo! That's it! Pile it so high that you can never get out and so high, I can never hear you whine about it.
I don't get it, Teacher Squawk.
- Why are you being so mean? - Mean? I'm not trying to be mean or nice.
Ever since I stopped listening to the little voice in my head, I simply do what I want.
If I want to hide the truth, I lie.
If I want something another caveman owns, I take it.
And if I want to go swimming after a big meal, I jump right in! You're crazy! Thunk, that is a hurtful thing to say.
Now into the deep, dark hole where you'll never be able to tell on me forever.
- Any last words? - Yeah.
Get away from my family.
Ha! Looks like something else that was yours is now mine.
Oh, that rock was never mine.
Hmm? Do your worst.
I've hidden your stuff in a place so smart and so sinister, you'll never find it.
- Let's throw this guy in a volcano.
- It's in the bush! Here are your missing eggs.
Rocks.
- Neck pelt? - Huh? I have a very sensitive throat.
Hmmph! Oh, and here's Krispy Bear, Sandy.
Oh.
Told you we'd get him back.
Well, sweetie, looks like you were right.
Next time you think really hard, we'll listen.
Really? 'Cause lately, I've been thinking really hard that I should start dating.
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
- Relax.
- Wait.
What's to stop Teacher Squawk from taking our stuff again? Oh, I think he'll learn his lesson.
Good news, friends.
My little voice, it came back, and he says you should let me go.
Teaching is fun.
Yep.
And Dad finally got that annoying ramu out of his hair.
Right, Dad? Dad? He didn't even say goodbye.
But, yes, everything is back to normal.
Nobody's taking any more stuff away from the Croods today.
Someone took the sun! I can't even see my own hands.
What if they're gone, too? Who would take the sun? What if they never give it back? What if we are stuck in the dark forever? Don't worry, family.
Just stay here while I find the sun.
- Dad? - Dad? - Grug? - I'm here.
Just hanging off a cliff.
Um, where are you, sun? Sun? Sun?! Dah, dah, dah!
