Give 'em pie!
- [ All Cheering ]
- Yeah! Hah!
Thank you, gentlemen.
Always an intellectual treat.
Say, how many roaches does it take
Can't tell. As soon as
the light goes on, they scatter!
[ Hysterical Laughing Continues ]
[ Laughing ]
[ Panting ]
Ah, almost there.
From the most mysterious
regions of uncharted Asia,
- I give you the Chinese Cabinet...
- Come on, girls. Quick. Quick.
of Metamorphosis!
Utilizing psychic vibrations,
- [ Gasps ] Ooh, ohh, pick me!
- I shall select the perfect volunteer.
Ooh, no! Come on,
I'm askin' ya with my brain.
- [ Moaning ] Aha! Why, Your Majesty!
- Me?
- [ Snarling ]
- No, no. Thumper, down. Let her go.
Maybe he'll saw her in half.
[ Snickering ]
As you ascend the dung beetle
to the unknown,
put your trust in the mysteries that
are beyond mere mortal comprehension.
Ooh, this is gonna be good!
- Blueberries ready?
- [ All ] Ready.
- Shh!
I call upon the ancient
Szechwan spirits...
to inhabit the body
of our volunteer!
No, no.
Just stay in there, Your Majesty.
Transformation.
Transformation!
Transformation!
Wow.
Manny's gettin' good.
- [ Gasps ] Not now.
- If it rains, that bird'll
get ripped to shreds!
Shh!
And now, insectus...
transformitus!
[ All ]
Ooh!
- Ooh!
- Ooh, pretty!
-[ Applauding ]
- Thank you.
- That's the signal. That's the signal!
[ Grunts ]
This is it, girls.
Get ready to roll.
- Huh? It's stuck!
- That was amazing!
I have no-- How did they do that?
I have no idea where she went.
- Thank you. Thank you, thank you.
-[ Audience ] More, more, more!
Wait!
- Where is she?
- Well, now, uh, actually--
I am sorry. A magician
never reveals his secrets.
That's very true, Hoppy. Where would the
mystery be if we all knew how it was--
- Shutting up.
- [ Grunting ]
- You can do it!
You've got to make it work!
- Hey!
I said, where is she?
- [ Whimpering ]
- Ohh!
[ Grunting ]
[ Screaming ]
Hold on!
[ Screaming ]
Bird! It's a bird!
[ All Yelling ]
[ Cawing ]
- [ Laughing ]
- Let's get out of here! Go!
Don't let it get me!
Don't let it get me!
Help me! Aaah!
[ Cackling ]
[ Dot ]
Up, down, up, down.
- And turn!
- [ Grunting ]
[ Screaming ]
- Oh, my eye! Help me!
- [ Screaming ]
[ Screaming ]
[ Screaming ]
Mmm, boysenberry.
Huh?
Aah, no, no, no, no, no!
[ Grunting ]
- [ Screaming ]
- [ Moaning ] Oh, the pain!
There goes my magic act!
- Flaming gas!
- No! P.T!
[ Screaming ]
A direct hit! Ah-hee-ha!
- [ Screaming ]
- Run!
- [ Gasps ]
- Flik! Help us!
[ Snarls ]
[ Gasps ]
Dot!
[ Flik ]
Okay! Everyone out! Hurry!
[ Coughing ]
Where's Dot?
Anyone seen Dot?
- [ Screaming ]
- Whose idea was this?
Huh?
Was it yours, Princess?
Just get behind me, girls.
It'll be okay.
[ Flik ]
Leave her alone, Hopper.
The bird was my idea.
I'm the one you want.
[ Snapping ]
[ Shrieking ]
[ Blows Landing,
Flik Grunting ]
- Ohh.
- [ Grunting ]
- [ Shrieking ]
- [ Snapping ]
[ Growling ]
Where do you get the gall
to do this to me?
[ Panting ] You were--
You were gonna squish the queen.
- [ All Gasping ]
- It's true.
I hate it when someone
gives away the ending.
- [ Roaring ]
- [ Moaning ]
You piece of dirt!
No, I'm wrong.
You're lower than dirt!
You're an ant!
Let this be a lesson
to all you ants!
Ideas are very dangerous things!
You are mindless,
soil-shoving losers,
put on this earth to serve us!
[ Flik ]
You're wrong, Hopper.
[ Groaning ]
[ Inhaling Deeply ] Ants are not meant
to serve grasshoppers.
I've seen these ants
do great things!
And year after year,
they somehow manage...
to pick food
for themselves and you.
So... so who is the weaker species?
Ants don't serve grasshoppers!
It's you who need us!
[ Crowd Gasping, Chattering ]
We're a lot stronger
than you say we are.
And you know it, don't you?
[ Grunts ]
[ Chuckles ]
Well, Princess!
Umm, Hopper?
I hate to interrupt, but, um--
You ants stay back!
- Oh, this was such a bad idea!
- You see, Hopper,
nature has a certain order.
The ants pick the food,
the ants keep the food,
and the grasshoppers leave!
[ Yelling ]
- I'm so proud of you, Flik!
- Charge-a!
Where are you going?
They're just ants!
Oof!
- [ Screams ]
- [ Snarls ]
No! Bad grasshopper!
Bad grasshopper! Go home!
- [ Roaring ]
- [ Roaring Louder]
[ Whining, Yelping ]
- [ Chuckles ]
- Yeah!
[ Hopper ] Come back here,
you cowards! Don't leave!
- [ Flik ] To the cannon!
- [ Ants ] To the cannon!
[ Hopper]
No!
[ Chuckles ]
Happy landings, Hopper!
- Huh?
Rain!
[ Growling ]
[ Roaring ]
- Flik!
- Quick! After them!
- Yaah!
- Aah! Aah!
Aah! Slim!
- Francis! Francis! Francis, I'm stuck!
- Where are ya?
- I'm over here! Here!
- Where?
I'm the only stick with eyeballs!
- Help! Help!
- Get him!
- Yes! Yes!
No!
- [ Giggling ]
- [ Chattering ]
- [ Chattering ]
- [ Giggling ]
[ Screaming ]
- Go that way! I've got an idea!
- But the anthill's over--
- [ Atta Screaming ]
- Flik!
- Come on!
[ Screaming ]
[ Flik ]
There!
[ Atta Grunts ]
Come on!
We've gotta hide!
No matter what happens,
stay down!
Flik, no!
What are you doing?
- Uh-- Hopper!
- You think it's over?
No, no, no.
No, I-I can explain.
was buy them time!
- No, please!
Please, Hopper!
I'll get more grasshoppers
and be back next season,
but you won't!
[ Chirping ]
- [ Choking ]
- Well, what's this?
Another one of
your little bird tricks?
- Yup.
girls in this one too?
- Hello, girls!
- [ Screeching ]
[ Screaming In Terror]
No! No!
No, no, no, no!
No! Aah!
[ Screaming ] No!
Oh, no!
Oh, no! No, no, no!
[ Screams ]
[ Horn Blowing ]
Come on, boys!
- Hey, Princess Dot! Wait up!
- [ Giggling ]
[ Sighs ]
I finally get a second to relax,
and I gotta get out of my chair.
- Come on! You can rub lotion
on me later, shade boy.
- Yeah, hubba-hubba.
[ Both Laughing ]
- [ Laughing, Chattering ]
- Oh, you're too kind!
- It was the least we could do.
All in a day's work.
Dim!
- Ohh!
- [ Kids ] Ohh!
I'm so sorry, kids.
I wish you could come along too.
- [ Kids Weeping ]
- I'm not gonna cry. I'm not gonna cry.
[ Chattering ]
[ Chattering ]
[ Laughing ]
Hey, let's go. We got a schedule
to keep. Come on, let's go.
- Hup, hup, hey!
- Hey, Tiny!
Let's get this show packed up!
We got paying customers hatching!
Yes, Mr. Flea. Yes, sir.
Of course, sir. Right away, sir.
And, um, I just wanted to
