- Uh, Aladar.

Why aren't you uphill with the--

uh, young bloods?

Well, I was back here

talking to these guys.

I guess they-- they're having

a hard time keeping up.

So, you know, maybe

you could slow it down a bit.

Hmm. Let the weak set the pace.

Now, there's an idea.

Better let me do the thinking

from now on, Aladar.

Hey, they need help back here.

Watch yourself, boy.

Don't worry.

That's how my brother treats newcomers.

No matter how charming they are.

You sure know how to

catch a girl's eye there, stud.

I wouldn't be catchin' nobody's eye

if I was you, especially Neera's.

You just keep your head down,

and you mind what Kron tells you.

Since when do we take orders

from the likes of him?

Kron has swatted flies

bigger than you, pops.

I could hold that monster's brain

in the palm of my--

No, Yar, she's right-- better to keep

our heads down with this bunch...

than get 'em bitten off by

those things.

Well, you just consider yourself lucky

that's all that's following us.

Hey, wake up. Enough with the beauty

sleep. You're ravishing already.

Hey! Hello! Anybody in there?

Zini, what are you doing?

I believe you left a wake-up call

for the dawn of time.

- Come on! Move it!

- What's the hurry?

Something's up. The herd's gathering

without us. Let's check it out.

Rise and shine!

Kron says everybody goes.

Come on, get up.

On your feet.

The charm never stops around here.

- You say something?

- Uh, no. No, sir.

Unless you got a death wish, you and

that little parasite better get moving!

Sheesh, is that guy ugly, or what?

Hey, hey, hey,

there's your girlfriend.

-What are you talking about?

-You know what I'm talking about: Neera.

Scaly skin, yellow eyes, big ankles.

Yeah. I made

a real impression on her.

What you need is a little help

from the love monkey.

- ''The love monkey''?

- Oh, baby!

That, children,

is what's known as a jerkosaurus.

And with that, the ice is broken.

We've got a lot of first-timers here.

Make sure they get it.

We stop for nothing and no one.

If this is your first crossing,

listen up.

There is no water

till we reach the other side.

And you'd better keep up,

'cause if a predator catches you,

you're on your own. Move out!

Oh, my goodness.

Oh, my goodness.

It looks like a very long walk.

And hot. If you smell somethin'

sizzlin', it could be me.

- We're moving too slow.

- I'll pick up the pace.

Hey, old girl,

you're wandering off a bit.

That's all I need:

a monkey on my back.

On your feet, Eema.

We can't let those things eat you.

They're out there waiting.

The lake!

- We made it?

- It's just over that-- that hill, baby.

Oh, thank goodness.

Come on, Eema.

Water. Remember water?

Well, it's time

to refresh my memory.

Ooh, I'm just gonna

walk right into that lake...

until the water's

up to my eyeballs...

and soak it all in.

Maybe the rains

collected somewhere else.

What do you want us to do?

Take a scout

and check the entire perimeter.

Enough!

You have to be strong now!

The nesting grounds are only

a few days away! Keep moving!

Kron, we've never gone this long

without water.

If we keep going like this,

we'll lose half the herd.

Then we save the half

that deserves to live.

What, they're moving already?

Oh, we'll never keep up.

There was water here.

Always water here before.

We always had water.

Always.

And-- And plenty of mud.

Oh, Eema, please.

The herd won't wait. We must carry on.

You gotta get up!

- There was water everywhere.

- There is no water, dear.

Baylene, don't move.

Uh, what is it? What's wrong?

- Do you hear that?

- I sure do.

Lift your foot, Baylene.

Now press down.

I always did like big girls!

- Water.

- Oh, my goodness!

- Water! Come on!

- They found water.

That's it, Eema.

Come drink.

Kron, look.

All we had to do was dig and--

Good.

Now get out of the way.

Wait! Wait!

There's enough for everyone!

Eema!

That's it. Keep pushing and shoving.

That's very helpful.

Bruton, we've been walking in circles.

There's no water here.

Bruton, we've been walking in circles.

There's no water here.

- I think we should get back.

- Shh. Keep it down.

Let's get out of here.

Now, you come out on three.

Now, you come out on three.

Come on. Come on out.

No one's gonna hurt you.

Hey, hey, what's going on?

The little Aladars haven't

had anything to drink.

I think they're scared of me.

Well, who wouldn't be?

You are pretty scary.

Come on over, guys.

Take it easy. Don't worry.

She's just a hair ball.

And proud of it. Come on.

He's gonna find you some water.

Here. Now, you just

take a foot and press.

Whoa. Hey, hey, hey, come on, come on.

Knock it off.

Let's-- Let's work together here, huh?

A little teamwork.

Ready?

One, two, three.

Press!

Good job, Suri.

So, where are your parents,

anyway?

A lot of us are on our own now.

- You like kids, I see.

- Well, the skinny ones

can be a little chewy.

I'm Aladar, the jerkosaurus.

Oh. Sorry about that.

- Probably right.

- Dad, wake up.

Huh?

- Why did you help that old one?

- What else could we do?

Leave her behind?

Oh, you mean you actually--

Well, that happens all the time.

- You don't survive if you're not--

- Strong enough.

Well, yeah.

Is that you talking,

or your brother?

Everything's so different.

I-- I don't know what to think any more.

Look, Neera,

we watch out for each other...

we all stand a chance of getting

to your nesting grounds.

- You sound so sure.

- I'm not.

But it's all I know.

So, um-- Oh, water.

I'll, uh, get you some water.

- Can I try?

- Sure.Just press.

- Hmm.

- Oops!

- Sorry.

- No, you-- you first.

One down and--

Well, one down.

Kron! Carnotaurs!

What?

They never come this far north.

The fireball

must've driven them out.

You led them right to us!

Maybe you can feed them with your hide!

Move the herd out, double-time!

- What's happening?

- My brother's moving the herd.

Kron! What's going on?

Carnotaurs. If we don't keep moving,

they'll catch up to us.

But the others in the back,

they'll never make it.

- They'll slow down the predators.

- You can't sacrifice them like this!

Hold it! That could be

you back there, or you!

If you ever interfere again,

I'll kill you.

Stay away from him!

Aladar, no! You just--

Just go. I'll be okay.

Let's go! Let's go!

Carnotaurs!

- Carno-what?

- Carnotaur.

A mouth full of teeth

with a bad attitude. Let's go.

Come on, you guys, get on, get on!

We're gonna get left behind.

Go on.

Let's go! Hurry up!

We're losing them!

Aladar, slow down!

Oh, joy. Blisters.

I've got blisters on my blisters.

You don't wanna know

where I got blisters.

- What was that?

- It came from up ahead.

- What was that?

- It came from up ahead.

Okay, what's the worst

thing it could be?

A carnotaur.

Okay, what's the second worst

thing it could be?

Two carnotaurs!

Two carnotaurs!

- Oh, my goodness! Oh, my goodness!

- That's it! I'm gone!

Everybody! We don't know for sure. It
