Epic Page #6

And this one

is obsessed

with finding us.

Obviously that's

a security risk.

Can't have one of

his big fat feet

stepping on Moonhaven.

One of his ginormous,

flabby, dirty, stinky--

Okay, I got it.

So we've been

throwing him

off the trail.

So you're just

messing with him?

But he's found

all this stuff.

He only finds what

we want him to find.

Look at his map.

We've got him

looking everywhere

but where we are.

(CHUCKLES)

I love how

this guy talks.

(SLOWLY)

"Look at this flower."

(LAUGHS)

(SLOWLY)

"I hurt my elbow."

(LAUGHING)

I think that's

kind of mean.

"Who said that?"

It's his life's work.

He's my dad!

He what?

I'm a stomper.

What happened?

You got shrunk?

Yes! Which he knows.

Seriously?

It's been a weird day

for everybody.

You got a problem

with stompers?

A stomper

squashed my uncle.

(GASPS)

Oh, my gosh. Really?

No. I'm messing with you.

(LAUGHS)

(GRUNTS)

Too far?

Try it again,

maybe she'll

punch you harder.

BOMBA:
(SLOWLY)

I'm sorry.

(NORMAL VOICE)

I guess she's right

about me, huh, Ozzy?

All I seem to be

able to do is...

(SLOWLY)

drive people away.

No, Dad,

you didn't! I'm here!

And you're right

about all of it.

Don't stop looking.

Not now.

(CHIRPING)

(PANTING)

Dad! Dad,

just turn around!

(SNIFFING)

Uh-oh.

Ozzy...

no kisses.

(SCREAMING)

(BARKING)

Ozzy!

(PANTING)

Hey, how do I look?

Scary as ever.

(MK SCREAMING)

Are you okay?

Run!

Ozzy, will you

please stop?

(GASPS)

Oh! Oh!

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah!

They're here!

They're in my house!

(GRUNTING)

(VACUUM SUCKING)

(BOTH SCREAM)

(BARKS SLOWLY)

No!

(SLOWLY) Ow!

I hurt my elbow!

Did you hear that?

He said it! (LAUGHING)

Whoa!

Oh, oh, oh, oh!

(MK YELPING)

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

No! Don't let go!

Don't let go! No!

(SCREAMING)

(GROANS)

Oh, oh!

Hello there,

my little friend!

Dad! Dad!

(GASPS)

Oh!

Dad! Dad!

(SWOONS SLOWLY)

(MK SCREAMING)

(GRUNTING SOFTLY)

RONIN:
Let's go.

You can't stay.

You're with us now!

I'll come home soon, Dad.

I promise.

Come on, MK,

we gotta go.

(SIGHS)

You think he's okay?

Yeah, he'll be fine,

their heads are like rocks.

Uh, smart rocks.

That's a whole

lot of ugly.

Ugh! It smells like

something died in here.

Something did.

NOD:
How do we

know where to go?

RONIN:

I've been here before...

with your father.

He never told me

about this.

He never got

the chance.

(BOTH GRUNT)

How's my dark prince?

It's fine!

Good. Because

if it dies, you die.

We know. You said.

Ugly says "what"?

What?

Nothing.

(LAUGHING)

(GASPS)

Shh!

(BATS SQUEAKING)

There's our exit.

Meet me back here

when you've got

the Pod and the slugs.

How are we supposed

to find them?

Follow the slime.

(GROANS)

Aren't you

coming with us?

I'm gonna make sure

nobody follows you.

Don't worry,

you get the easy part...

I get the fun part.

Hey, look!

It's a Leafman!

I'll keep this simple.

I run...

you try to catch me.

Let's go.

(BOTH GASP)

When I get big again,

I am so coming

back here with

a can of bug spray.

Mub. Grub.

We're down here!

I told you

she'd come for me.

(LAUGHS)

This girl is smitten.

Mmm... (GASPS)

Hand me the Pod!

Oh, come on,

you should work on

your grip, my dude.

It's a bit womanly.

(GRUNTING)

(YELPS)

No, no, no!

Whoa, whoa!

(LAUGHING)

Hurry, before

the guards come back!

GRUB:
Too late!

I have a plan!

Quick!

Everybody hide

in your shells!

Oh. I have

another plan!

(MUB AND GRUB GRUNTING)

NOD:
Go! Go!

MUB:
Ow! That hurts!

Those are my eyes!

Can you go

any faster?

It's kind of hard

when you're

pulling on my brain!

MANDRAKE:
Ronin!

What a surprise.

I get so few guests.

Could be the stench

of death. Some people

don't care for it.

It's all right.

Ronin's an old--

What do you call someone

you've known a long time...

and always wanted

to destroy?

I expected you

to come.

But I didn't think

you'd come alone.

Who said I'm alone?

(MUB AND GRUB GRUNTING LOUDLY)

(GASPS)

MK:
Whoa.

(BOTH SNARLING)

Ow!

Ooh! So, what's

the plan here?

A hundred Leafmen?

A thousand?

Don't flatter yourself.

(GRUNTING)

(BOTH GROANING)

(ALL GRUNTING)

Well, now

I'm just embarrassed.

I completely

over-prepared.

(YELLING)

(ECHOING)

Go, go, go!

(GASPS)

I'm afraid you'll

find getting out...

is a lot harder

than getting in.

(SCREAMING)

NOD:
Ronin!

Hang on!

Go! Take the Pod

to Moonhaven!

I'm not leaving

without you!

Now you're starting

to sound (GROANING)

like a Leafman!

Ronin!

Come on!

(WHISTLES)

Hyah!

We've been

waiting for you.

Where's Ronin?

He gave us

a head start.

But the Boggans

aren't far behind.

(CROWD CHEERING)

You guys made it!

I knew you would.

You got that

from the scrolls?

Some things

you just know.

Hmm.

Let's see.

Moonlight comes in here,

moves along here...

reaches the Pod here.

At the moon's

highest peak.

Only time

it can bloom.

Do you know

what this means?

We single-handedly

saved the forest!

Eye five! Down low.

Too slow. (LAUGHING)

So, when the Pod opens,

what happens to you?

I think I go home.

Well, I guess

this is--

Yeah, I guess it is.

Mandrake's bats!

(YELLING)

They're not attacking,

they're just

blocking out the moon.

Are you ready

for this?

(CHUCKLES)

Are you kidding?

We're outnumbered,

out of time and the fate of

the world is at stake.

Why did I quit again?

See you up there.

As soon as I can

find my helmet.

Thank you.

Hey, guys!

I'm going to

need a uniform!

And a bird!

Oh, that's...

You...

That's all right.

I'll find them myself.

A Leafman makes do.

(BATS SCREECHING)

(LEAFMEN ROARING)

(ROARS)

(MK GRUNTING)

What are you doing?

I'm going to help.

Whoa, whoa.

You heard the queen!

If you want to get home...

you have to be

here with the Pod

when it blooms.

Isn't that

what you want?

So I should

just sit here?

I didn't say that.

Then I'm going up there.

I didn't say

that either.

You don't even know

what you're saying.

I'm saying,

who gives up

everything...

for a world that's

not even theirs?

Dad. My dad does!

I have to

get my dad!

Where do you think

you're going?

The queen said

I was here for

a reason.

This must be it.

That's my girl.

Hyah!

(GASPS)

Oh, come on!

(CROW CAWING)

Mandrake!

He's headed

for Moonhaven!

Grub! The Pod!

It's blooming

in darkness!

Whoa! Hyah!

Hey, Dad!

Come on,

I need your help!

(BEEPING)

Whoa, whoa!

(GROANING)

(BARKING)

(BEEPING CONTINUES)

(BEEPING STOPS)

(GROANS) They're all

right about me, Ozzy.

All these years

just chasing things

that aren't even there.

I actually thought

I saw my daughter,

two inches tall,

stuck in a bug jar.

I've lost my mind.

And I am

talking to a dog.

(SNEEZES)

Hey, Dad!

Come on,

I need your help, Dad!

What? No! No!

Dad, look at me!

I'm right here!

Just check your cameras!

(OZZY WHIMPERS)

Ozzy, please.

I've made up

my mind, okay?

(BARKS)

Quiet!

(STAMMERING)

I don't care anymore.
