Curious George 3: Back to the Jungle

I don't know, George.

Is it too windy for flying a kite?

Thinking that's a yes.

George?

George!

Hi.

You're right, George. It's awesome.

You want to fly it yourself?

And regretting this in three, two, one.

George!

Hey.

Hi.

You feel safe with your feet

on the ground

- Where everything's predictable

- George, come down from there!

So many possibilities passing you by

Well, drop your things

And look up to the sky

Sorry about that.

My monkey got carried away.

- 'Cause when you're up for anything

- George!

- That's not safe!

- You reach higher

You take your worries and say goodbye

When you're up for anything

- You live open and free

- Sorry about that.

So come on, come on with me

- I guess you never heard it before

- Hi.

- George!

- But nothing is impossible

Sometimes you got to give it another try

But dig deep and put your fears aside

'Cause when you're up for anything

you reach higher

- Begging your pardon. Have a nice day!

- You take your worries and say goodbye

When you're up for anything

You live open and free

So come on, come on with me, yeah

You can wait for life to bring you

- All your hopes and dreams

- Bye.

- Wrapped in a bow

- Yikes!

I won't tell you what to do

No

- But happiness is out there

- My bad.

And how much you can grab is up to you

It's up to you

George, the park is no place

to fly a kite.

'Cause when you're up for anything

you reach higher

You take your worries and say goodbye

When you're up for anything

You live open and free

So come on, come on

When you're up for anything

you reach higher

You take your worries and say goodbye

When you're up for anything

you live open and free...

Okay, now you gotta go

a little to the left.

Now to the right. No!

George, that was very, very, very...

not good.

When will you learn caution, George?

Forget about "no"

and "yes" and "banana."

You need to learn the word "caution."

How about the word "lawsuit?"

I'm so sorry.

Here's my contact information.

My insurance company

and dry cleaner are on the back. I...

There you go. Yes, one for you, too.

It'll come out. I promise.

Come along, George.

Bye!

Okay, George. I need you

to wait here while I get cleaned up.

And please...

no more surprises.

The time for adventure is over.

George?

I'll be right there.

Hi.

George?

Come down from there.

But he's havin' so much fun.

Yes, but he shouldn't be...

Who are you?

I've come to see a man about a monkey.

Let me guess. Yellow hat,

yellow suit, look of deep distress.

You must be Ted,

which means that must be...

Hello.

Hello, George.

It's an honor to meet you.

Hal Houston from GSA,

the Global Space Agency.

And this is my tactical assistant,

Andrew.

- Hello.

- Hi.

We've had our eye on George

for some time.

- Look, if we owe you for any damage...

- Oh, no, no. Nothing like that.

We want George

for a very important mission.

A space mission.

Yes, you! Hop aboard.

Did you know the first astronauts

were monkeys?

They went boldly

where no man has gone before.

They were heroes.

How would you like to be one of them?

So, what is this mission?

I'm glad you asked. Andrew?

Welcome to majestic Central Africa.

Oops.

As I was saying,

majestic Central Africa!

This is where you came from, George.

Lately it's been getting a lot of rain,

causing rivers to overflow.

And do you know what that means? Andrew.

That's right, flooding.

To help control the flooding, we created

a device about as big as your hand,

which we call the Regional

We put it in our satellite,

and with the satellite...

we can control

the distribution of water.

We call it Project Stop Flooding.

The problem is...

and this is the embarrassing part.

Our satellite containing the RDS

has failed and can't be fixed.

And without it... Andrew.

Oh, boy.

More flooding.

Yes, George. The flooding is very bad

for the animals and the land.

That's why we need a brave monkey

to go up in space

and get that RDS,

so we can install it...

Here in our new Ground

Communications Tower in Africa.

Right on the Louis Leakey Dam.

We're not taking a chance on putting it

directly in a space satellite again.

Why can't you just put another RDS

in that tower and not go to space?

It's custom-built! It would take

forever to create a new one.

So what do you say, George?

Can we count on ya?

No! No! I mean...

No kidding, that's a valuable mission,

but why not send a human?

The human-size rockets

have all been moved to museums.

But I tracked down a monkey capsule

in mint condition.

Thanks for the offer, Mr. Houston,

but I don't think it's a good idea.

I'm sorry, George.

Not everyone loves adventure like we do.

Let's go, Andrew.

Hey. Wait.

I didn't say no, exactly.

Are you sure this is safe?

Why, it's as safe as flying a kite!

Okay, George.

But only if you complete

the training without a hitch.

Let's get you in training!

Let's go

Oh, yeah

Well, let's say

you're caught up in a bind

Well, I've got the perfect guy in mind

He sees things a different way

A stumble here and there,

but things are okay

At first glance

you just might have your doubts

But this guy he always works it out

Stays tough and saves the day

'Cause giving up ain't in his DNA

Yeah, he might be a little strange

But he'll help you, yes, he can

Yeah, he's only just

your ordinary superman

- He can help you, yes he can

- Yes, he can

He's your ordinary superman

He's so cool you wanna be like him

Nonstop and never givin' in

Head first and steely-eyed

When things are down

he's always lookin' upside

He might take a different route than you

But he's got a different point of view

Leaves most folks scratchin' their heads

If only they would listen to what I said

That he might be a little strange

But he'll help you, yes, he can

Yeah, he's only just

your ordinary superman

He can help you, yes, he can

Yes, he can, he's your ordinary superman

- He can help you, yes, he can

- Baby, yes, he can

He's your ordinary superman

- Yeah! Yeah!

- He's just a superman...

George!

George, I now certify you space-ready.

What do you say, Ted?

I say...

Congratulations, George.

You've got the right stuff.

I'm gonna miss you, George.

Be careful up there.

I can't go with you, George,

but I brought you something

to keep you company.

I love you, too.

And I'll be right here waiting for you.

Good luck on your mission,

Space Monkey George.

Relax, Ted. Everything's gonna be fine.

Are you sure?

Yes!

I personally reviewed and accounted for

all aspects of this mission.

Trust me, nothing will go wrong.

Andrew, let's get the party started.

Space Monkey George,

are you ready for launch?

T minus five...

four, three, two, one.

Liftoff!

The capsule will auto dock

with the satellite in five...

four... three...

two... one.

Capsule has successfully

docked with the satellite.

Yeah!

Space Monkey George, proceed.

Good luck, George.

Okay, George.

Now just the way you practiced.
