Amphibia (2019) s01e14 Episode Script

1
Perfecto.
What do you call these again?
Omelettes. Very popular where I'm from.
We'll see about that.
Holy crab apples!
Until today, I've been eating garbage.
I've seen the future
and it's omelettes.
- Oh, those look good.
- Omelettes.
Ah! It's happening.
Are you sure it's happening?
Dead sure.
Is this a "we gotta go now" kinda thing
or can I finish eating?
Take it to go, Anne,
cause we gotta sound the alarm.
OK.
I just gotta separate the stuff
so it retains the flavors
and doesn't get soggy
- Anne, move!
- We gotta get a move on.
- Move, Anne!
- OK, OK.
What's going on?
Now what's this all about?
Everyone, listen up!
Today is the third morning in a row
where the temperature dipped
below the "frog line."
Which means Hiberday is almost upon us.
- Hiberday?
- Once a year, the temperature drops so low
that it sends everyone
into instant hibernation.
Frozen in place
till they thaw out the next day.
And when we thaw,
we feel refreshed, rejuvenated, virile.
- Hey, that's pretty cool.
- Well, it's not.
Every year, one townsperson
disappears, never to be seen again.
And there's the weird dark turn.
It's serious, Anne. Look around you.
- Possible goodbye, Wally.
- Possible goodbye.
Possible goodbye, Ivy.
Possible goodbye, Tody.
Possible goodbye, Archie.
Possible goodbye, Sprig.
Possible goodbye, Hop Pop.
Possible goodbye, family.
And of course, Anne.
- Not so fast.
- What?
- Harsh.
- You're kinda spittin' on tradition, Anne.
There will not be any goodbyes this year.
Because this year, Wartwood has me.
What?
Yeah, I don't follow.
Um, hello! I'm warm-blooded.
That's gross, Anne.
It means I won't freeze.
I can be your protector.
And under my watch,
no one will disappear again.
Whoo-hoo!
Anne! Anne! Anne!
Wow. You've gone from town beast
to town protector.
Big fan of that narrative.
All right. Hiberday isn't till tomorrow.
So, everybody meet back here tonight.
Then Anne can guard all of us.
- We're gonna live!
- Thank goodness Anne's here.
I'm gonna burn my will.
Anne, are you sure about this?
Looking after the whole town's
a lot of responsibility.
Are you kidding? I've totally got this.
I feel like my time here has all
been leading up to this moment.
It's like fate and karma combined
into one.
Like kate or fartma.
Those are both terrible. But anyway,
All my senses feel heightened.
It's like the whole world has slowed down
and I'm totally aware
of everything all around me.
You ever feel like that, guys?
Guys? What?
What the heck?
This can't be good.
Hh, no! Hiber day is here early.
Everybody is all over the place by now.
How am I gonna get them back to
Oh, oh, wow. This is very light.
Welp, that's everyone.
Heh, that was surprisingly easy.
Town protector. Yea-yuh!
And now all I have to do is watch 'em.
OK, I'm bored.
And a bored protector is a bad protector.
So I'm gonna need to thaw someone out.
Let's see. Eeny, Meeny, Miney, Sprig.
Phew! This is harder than I thought.
Thaw already, Sprig.
Where am I? What's goin' on?
Sprig! Boy, am I glad to see you,
buddy. Uh
You get it?
I is awake, yes?
Yeah.
Let's thaw out the others.
Uh I'm thinking we should
let nature run its course.
You frogs don't seem to do
well in the cold.
Why you say that?
Water angels.
Well
since you're already awake anyways,
let's go have some fun.
We've got the whole town to ourselves.
Let's do it!
Hey, Sprig. Catch.
Meh. Caught it.
Oh, Mrs. Croaker, I never noticed
how marry-able you are.
You too, Wally. Come in for some kisses.
They're kissing.
Whoo-hoo!
Look at it, Sprig. It's beautiful.
No, no! Don't hurt mommy.
All right, enough. We got our fun.
But it's time for a little protector duty.
Let's do a head count,
make sure everyone is still here.
You got it.
Am I still here?
We got Tom, Soggy Joe, Jill,
Cashmere the soft.
Hop Pop, check. Polly, check.
Ivy Polly?
Polly? No! No, no, no, no, no.
She's gone! What kind of protector am I?
Is something wrong with Polly?
Yes, Sprig. She's gone.
This is all my fault.
We've got to get her back.
All right!
Is something wrong with Polly?
Wow. Never tracked anything
in snow before.
It's hard.
Hey! Who wants a nap?
Just hang on, Sprig.
You can go back to hibernating
as soon as we find Polly.
Polly
I smell a polly.
Polly's in that creepy cave.
Of course, yes.
You know, no matter how long
I'm in this world,
I'll never get used to the piles
of bones just lying around.
Hey. That icicle looks just like Polly.
Ah! Polly!
How'd she get up there?
Is she magic?
What was that?
Maybe we can ask this lady.
Excuse me, miss
That's what's been taking the frogs?
I'll keep it busy. You go get Polly.
Uh, OK.
Wait. Did you mean me?
Polly! Stop dancing around so much.
I'm trying to save you.
Hey! Sprig, look out!
Wow. Pointy.
Hey, you big furry freak. Get back here.
What the
No way.
You didn't kidnap Polly
just to feed yourself?
And if we take her, you will starve.
Unless
Ah, perfect. Maybe just a little more.
Come on, come on. Please work.
Huh. I guess the power
of omelettes is universal.
Now that's a protector.
My face feels squishy.
Man, I really shouldn't have told you out.
Whoo-hoo!
Five, four, three, two, one
And thaw, baby, thaw!
Huh? Yee-haw!
- Oh, thank goodness.
- We are all here.
We made it through the freeze.
Yay! I'm alive!
Three cheers for Anne,
the best town protector there is.
Hip, hip, hooray! Hip, hip, hooray!
Hold it.
I was a terrible town protector, you guys.
I slacked off when
I should've been watching you.
I unfroze Sprig when I got bored.
I'm fine.
And worst of all,
Polly almost got eaten by a giant Weasel.
Say what?
I'm no town protector.
I'm just an irresponsible kid.
Anne, you admitting that means
you are more responsible than you think.
Really?
Yeah, if you hadn't fessed up,
we never would have known
anything happened.
- Oh, yeah, it's true.
- That's a good point.
You may not be perfect, but you proved
that we can depend on you.
And, most importantly,
this is the first year no one disappeared.
All because of you.
Happy Hiberday, everyone.
Yay, Anne!
- Aw. Thanks, you guys.
- Hey everyone,
Check out these funny photos we took.
Sprig, no!
That's my body.
Oh, my
Did you use our frozen bodies
as bowling pins?
Hi, Sprig. Thanks for your help
in the tea shop the other day.
No problem, Felicia.
I had a tea-rrific time.
Oh, come here, you little charmer.
Oh, look at you.
- OK, bye.
- All right, see you.
- Hi Sprig.
- Hi Jerry.
Top of the mornin' to you, Sprig.
Lookin' good, Patrick.
Buongiorno, Sprig.
Hey, all right!
Wow. People around here
really seem to like Sprig.
Yep, he's always been
something of a town favorite.
Those big eyes and goofy grin
are hard to resist.
Hey-hey! Here comes Mrs. Croaker.
Hi, Mrs. Croaker.
Heh. This thing broken?
- Hi, Mrs. Croaker!
- Hi, Mrs. Croaker!
Well, hello, Anne. Polly.
Hi, Mrs. Croaker
That was weird.
Guys, you aren't gonna believe this,
but
I don't think Mrs. Croaker wants me.
Huh. So what do you think
Hop Pop's making for dinner tonight?
How could she not like me?
I'm Sprig. The fun Plantar!
Don't worry about it, dude.
It's OK if one person doesn't like you.
You know what, Anne, you're right.
This is not OK.
That's literally the opposite
of what I just said.
Looks like it's time to crank up
the charm on this widow.
After you, my lady.
- What?
- Oh, hey. Thanks so much
Wait. Uh, let me help you with that.
No, wait! Mrs. Croaker, come back.
Acknowledge me!
That was the saddest thing I've ever seen.
And I've seen something.
How can I fix this?
Totally feel for you dude
I had the same issue with a girl
named Jamie Krieger back home.
My advice? Just let it go.
You know what, Anne?
You're right. I can't just let this go.
I have to get Mrs. Croaker to like me.
And I can't do that
unless I know more about her.
Fact-finding mission, engage!
Sprig.
Get used to this feeling.
Croaker?
She's just a kooky old spider lady.
What's there to know?
I think she was born that old.
She looked exactly the same
when I was a kid.
She smells like wet leaves
and fungus. I love it.
Maddie, the buns are burning.
Come on, Anne. Shake that man. Shake him.
I spent all day and I know
even less about other than I did before.
Sorry about the wait, kids.
Hop Pop, Mrs. Croaker doesn't like me!
So, what do you kids want for dinner?
I was thinking ravioli.
Aw, yeah. That's what I'm talkin' about.
Anne! I've got it.
I have a completely reasonable plan
for gettin Mrs. Croaker to like me.
Glad to hear it. Lay it on me.
Well, I'm going to break into her house,
search through her belongings,
find the key to her secret wishes,
and make them all come true.
Dude, what? That's completely crazy plans.
Listen, Sprig, Mrs. Croaker
is just like Jamie Krieger,
who, for some inexplicable reason,
didn't like me.
Anne, this is totally different.
This is about me. I'm totally likable.
While you can be a bit
Go on.
likable also.
Darn right I'm likable.
I gave Jamie all my pudding cups at lunch.
Even the chocolate ones
with the vanilla ribbons.
And nothing. What was her problem?
Will you two stop yelling?
You know there's no soundproofing
on these walls, right?
- Wait, seriously?
- Yep. Don't you hear Hop Pop
yodel himself to sleep every night?
I thought it was
a stray animal or something.
Nope, just our Hop Pop being a freak.
You're a freak!
Well, I've got a house
to break into, so
All right, Mrs. Croaker.
Let's see what you're all about.
Huh. Wonder what kind of books she reads.
That's gonna be hard to forget.
Ooh, Candy.
Ew, gross.
Probably shouldn't put these in my mouth.
I'm gonna do it.
Sprig! Psst! You gotta
get outta here, man.
Oh, hi, guys. Come to help?
Uh, yeah, you need help, bud.
But not with this.
This is deranged!
All right, dude, put the stuff back.
- We're leaving.
- What? No.
Come on, Sprig!
- What the
- Hey!
Is that Mrs. Croaker?
Dang, she was hot.
Hold on. Who is that?
Here he is again.
Wait a second. Oh, my gosh.
Mrs. Croaker has a long-lost love.
Jonah this. Jonah that.
Even a map of where he might be.
There's a frog out there
that wants to be with her,
and that she wants to be with.
Hmm. it does kinda seem like
she's obsessed with him.
I guess it's possible.
I'm going to hunt down that frog
and reunite them.
And then, she won't like me.
Oh, no. She'll love me.
So, you wanna stay here and look
at more pictures of hot Croaker?
You read my mind.
Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh, I found it.
OK, Sprig, be cool. Be cool.
Come on out, Jonah.
I have a surprise for you.
Eh? Who-who-who is that?
You from the puzzle of the month club?
Nope. I'm here on behalf of Sadie Croaker.
Sadie? Sadie Croaker sent you?
Well, no. It's a long story, but
This is incredible.
I've been searching
for Sadie for 30 years.
I knew it.
Now then, can you tell me
where she's been all this time?
I'll do you one better.
I'll take you right to her.
Oh, yes!
Son, you just made this lonely old frog
very happy. Mmm.
Great. Now let's go.
Here I come, Sadie.
Sprig, where have you been?
And who is the strange man
attached to you?
Ahem, this handsome bachelor
happens to be the frog that is going
to make Mrs. Croaker like me forever.
Name's Jonah.
OK. Let's get this show on the road.
Mrs. Croaker!
Do I have a surprise for you?
Ooh! Is it the puzzle of the month club?
J Jonah?
- Sadie.
- Jonah.
Oh, my gosh, they are about to
It really is you.
What are you doing here?
Sadie Croaker, there's something
I've been wanting to tell you
for 30 years.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
Sadie Croaker, prepare to die!
Wait, what?
Sadie, Sadie, Sadie.
You thought you got the best of me
in Bogwater Canyon,
but I haven't forgotten.
Jonah, this isn't romantic!
The guild would surely
take me back if I took you down.
Thirty years I been searching
for ya, but you hid too well.
But now, thanks to this weird little frog
leading me straight to you,
your time is up.
You should have let
sleeping frogs lie and stand away.
You'd have spared yourself
from what's about to happen.
Ha! What're you gonna do to me now?
You're just an old woman.
- You're old.
- You're old.
No. He's right. She is just an old woman.
I'll save you, Mrs. Croaker.
Step aside, boy.
Bleh! Put your clothes back on,
you pervert.
Whoo! Yeah, Croaker! Mess him up.
- Whoa. That was
- Awesome!
What just happened?
Nothing happened. Nothing at all.
Because if word of this gets out,
let's just say it would be
very bad for everyone.
Are we clear?
- These lips be zipped.
- Didn't see a thing.
Yes, of course. So sorry.
All right, boy.
What's this all about? Spell it.
I wanted to get you to like me.
So I kind of
snuck into your house
and secretly went through all your things.
What?
And I saw all this stuff about Jonah
and I thought he was your long-lost love.
What an idiot. What makes you think
you can please everyone, kid?
- Jonah here don't like me.
- It's true.
Plenty of people don't like those two.
- Well, hey, now.
- Mission accomplished.
And I just don't like you.
But what did I do?
Why don't you like me? I mean, I like you.
I don't know.
Something about your big eyes
and goofy smile rub me the wrong way.
But, you did go through
all that trouble to get me like you.
I guess I can try and like you back.
Huh. Yeah, no, that's OK. You are right.
Like me or don't like me, I'm fine.
Atta-kid.
Cool, well, I guess we'll get going then.
She likes me! Aw, yeah! Wa-pow!
Good thing I brought this.
- She likes me. She likes me.
- You walked right into that one.
Good luck getting rid of him now.
I'm likable. I'm lovable.
She likes me!
