Your mom didn't punish you?

No.

Stop it! Stop it!

Yeah, she grounded

me for three weeks.

And yet you're here?

How bout your Dad?

He says I have to help him in the

garage after school for a month.

Huh, like I mind!

Man, who would?

No, Ernie's mom doesn't

let him have soda.

Ernie's mom isn't here.

Hehe...

Did your garage get bigger?

Yeah. We sold the car to make

room for more experiments.

Dad! Ernie's here.

Back here!

Hey Dr. Santiago, how's the

time machine coming along?

Four years and still doesn't work.

For a long time, I thought the

power key wasn't connected right.

Now I'm pretty sure it's in the

control panel, let's see.

Chrono stream relay, calibrated.

Matter transferal gage,

operational.

Ah, I just don't know.

You'll get it, Dad.

We'll get it!

You know the vacuuming robot?

I'll bet I can re-purpose it's capacitors for

the time machine's power bypass.

The time when I could

make my own rules?

On a scale of 1 to 10...

- You can't count that high.

- No doubt!

Sneaking out and drinking a soda.

Double busted!

You're tattling twerp!

Three weeks is nothing,

I've got enough pictures

here to get you grounded for three years.

Dude! Be carefull!

Some of this stuff even my Dad

doesn't know what to do!

- Give me that phone.

- Get away!

I didn't do it!

Sneaking out, drinking a soda...

and wrecking Dr Santiago's machine.

Ernie, you are triple busted!

So this is my fault?

I don't think so!

You come along and

suddenly the fun...

stopped.

Maybe construction down the street?

What was that?

Max, do you have a pitbull

you never told me about?

This is majorly weird.

Okay, nobody flip, I'm sure the

control panel just freaked out.

Julia, are you okay?

- Is it still there?

- Yeah, but...

she doesn't look like

she wants to hurt us.

She almost looks like...

she's smiling?

Great! Then she won't mind

if we go home.

That's the real T-Rex.

Man, I gotta check this out!

Ernie!

Way out!

Don't worry, she's not

even trying to catch me.

Maybe, but you can take our

heads off with her tail.

Relax. Can't you see how cool this is?

Ernie, she might eat us if we

don't get out of here now.

I think...

the museum did a really great

job with this new display.

Very life like.

Aahh... It's real...

This is so real?

She cleaned him,

like a newborn.

It makes sense.

The time machine kinda looks like

an egg when it's all folded up.

Make sense?

Hello... Do we look

like baby dinosaurs?

She wasn't calling everyone

to dinner, was she?

No, she was calling every one

to look at her cute little babies.

It almost sounds like they're

talking to each other, doesn't it?

We are so happy for you Tyra.

Yeah, it was looking like that egg

of yours was never gonna hatch.

The way you've been like a mother to orphans

for all these years is so wonderful Tyra.

But you deserve children of your own.

You still look after us though, right?

I mean, we don't want the Sarco's sneaking

up on us when we're grazing or anything.

Shhh, come on Neo, don't worry.

I'm not going anywhere.

All of you are my family.

I'll protect you from

the Sarco Brothers and...

then when my babies are big

enough, they'll protect you too.

- What do we have here?

- Any stragglers? I'm starving.

What is wrong with you?

Are you out of mind?

Are you looking to get extinct?

She gonna hurt you!

Sshh...

There's something going on here...

What are you looking at?

It wasn't me. I didn't let loose

a stink or anything! I swear!

Is that right!

Then how come all of sudden, it smells like

a sulfur pit around here, tell me that!

I think it's smells kind of nice.

Can you shut up! Will you?

The Sarco's want to know anything

and everything about Tyra.

Ooh... The plot thickens!

Well they're definitely going to

want to hear about this.

Yeah, definitely.

Shush...

- Aarrgh...

- Sshh...

Aaaarrhh...

Amateurs!

If they're not belching

they're squawking, if

they're not squawking

they're stepping on things!

They are as weird looking as orphan is.

They are beautiful and they'll grow

up big and strong like their mother.

Now everyone shuuh, my babies

need their sleep. Now shuuh.

Alright, alright.

Now's our chance.

Jules, come on, we'll just

stay for a little while.

We can set the time machine to bring

us back right after we left...

and mom will never

know we were gone.

We won't get in any trouble.

This isn't about getting

away with something Ernie.

It's about going back

where we belong.

Max, how do you get this to work?

Let's see.

Well...

First, you run the

initialization sequence...

But, the initialization sequence won't even

run, because the power key is gone.

What if it fell off when we

were going back in time.

It could be anywhere

or any when?

I'll give it to them later, okay?

I mean, Dino Mom thinks we're her kids

and it would be rude to just leave, right?

Don't worry, Jules...

I'm sure it must just fallen

off somewhere around here...

while we are coming

in for a landing.

We'll find it, in a day or two.

Ernie, we're stuck here.

Everything's gonna be fine.

Look around Jules...

This is Terra Dino at the peak

of the Cretaceous period.

And?

And that's totally awesome!

This is our town.

Millions of years before we were ever born.

Look, there's Mystery Rock!

And if this nest is near Max's garage

then we're probably really close to...

home.

Ernie? It's time for dinner.

Come on, Ernie. I know you're upset with me

but you can at least answer your door.

Oohh...

Julia, did you see where your bro...

"Gone to bust Ernie."

Okay, just a matter of figuring

out where Ernie would go..

He went where he always goes.

Just a minute.

Hey, Sue... Holla!

Hello Dr Santiago...

Oh please, I wish you'd call me Diego...

Could you come down from there?

Yeah, sorry. I'm still working out a few

kinks in my robot's arms and things.

Sorry.

- Is Ernie here?

- Yup, he and Max are in the garage.

I think Julia is here too.

They're looking at the time machine.

Time machine?

Okay, while she's busy let's

go exploring...

for the power key. Come on!

Ernie, if you get eaten,

I'll still tell mom.

Do whatever, I'm having fun!

Um...

Hi, Mom... Mommy...

Can I go out? Ahhhh...

See, you're not supposed to go anywhere.

There is a way around any Mom, it's

just a matter of finding it.

Oh yaah.

What is it?

Looky... Your big brother

brought presents.

Let me see, where are they?

Where are they?

Orphan.

Oh congrats Mom, triplets huh.

I need to see them.

I need to see them.

Where are they?

There they are?

Ooh, they're different colors,

they're different colors. Aaagh..

I got siblings, I finally got siblings. You

know, someone to play hide and go eat with.

Hey, and on long trips, you know, to

fight over who will sit on Mom's hump.

It will never be me of course.

And we'll sing the same songs over

and over, mostly the songs I like.

And for the rest of our lives we'll love each

other as friends. You know, for ever and ever!
