Going Our Way Page #4

the lighting of a miraculous

bonfire - an invention

of a legendary scouts' unit.

We, groundhogs, are proud

to carry on the tradition.

This fire will last for hours

without having to add any

extra wood to it.

It'll burn till morning.

In the old scouts' tradition

the most beautiful girl gets

the honor to light the fire.

Therefore, our main engineer

of the pile will select a belle

that will have the honor

to light the fire.

Those are juniper twigs,

for special effects.

Wow, like pyrotechnics. Cool.

So, how about you?

Any hobbies? - Nothing special,

just rhythmic gymnastics.

- I see. You work with ribbons,

clubs and... - Hoops.

That's it, yes. Do you like it?

Sure, I think it's really cool.

- What about you?

I'm with the scouts,

I play soccer, and I collect

trading cards -

Xavi is the only one missing.

Carmen collects them, too.

- It's bedtime, girls. - No, not yet...

See you tomorrow

at the lake.

Sorry, girls.

The skit will have to wait.

Carmen? Carmen!

Hi there,

we had a great time today.

Alex built a huge bonfire,

and I had the honour to light it.

Tomorrow, he's taking me

on a boat ride

in an Indian canoe.

I hope Irene lets me go.

And I wish mom and dad

would stop fighting all the time.

OK, good night now.

Due to the weather forecast

we've decided to reschedule

the bivouacking project.

You'll be leaving today...

Today? We've promised the girls

a ride in a canoe!

Are you starting

a tourist agency or what?

In a few days we can expect

heavy rains and storms.

You don't want to get

soaking wet, do you?

You know what you need to pack.

Don't forget your flashlights,

you don't want to crap your

pants out there in the darkness.

Mayda will distribute DFR's,

dry food rations.

You have ten minutes

to pack up and get ready.

Dismissed. Hurry up!

Move it, move it!

The sun is much stronger

up there, take my sun lotion.

Gee, thanks.

What factor...

Bye, guys. Take care!

Switch places...

Kekec! - Kekec!

Kekec! - Kekec!

Kekec!

What's wrong with those idiots?

- It looks the weather will change,

we'd better return to the camp.

- No, there's no need to go back.

There is - we'll give the girls

a ride in a canoe

instead of those dorks.

- Only if I get to do the rowing.

Sure, you're the strongest.

Look, a waterfall.

Let's go there. - Cool.

You've saved my life...

- Don't exaggerate.

Let's go...

Either they freaked out,

or their fat camp leader

doesn't let them go.

- No, they're coming.

Here we are, ladies.

Shall we go? - Where's Alex?

They've chosen

to go bivouacking,

but we didn't want to disappoint

you, so here we are.

Nature is screwed up.

I got stung by a mosquito.

I might get malaria and die.

- This is Slovenia, not Africa.

Here, mosquitoes don't carry

malaria. At least for now.

But ticks transmit borreliosis and

meningitis, which is even worse.

At this altitude,

there are no ticks.

Come on, cut the crap.

- What do you know?

Look, this is a good spot.

Wow...

Lies, deceit, cowardice.

- What cowardice?

You came back here running.

- The storm is coming.

Yes, and the best scouts freak

out and run back to the camp.

I don't know but...

- What?

We wanted to give the girls

a ride in a canoe.

So, you lied. - Lied?

The storm did not freak you out...

- No.

That's deceit. - Why?

Wasn't it Alex who had promised

the girls a ride in a canoe?

I see... Your plan was

to catch the girls' attention.

It was just a trick.

Did it work for you? Did it?

- It worked.

Good. True scouts are crazy

about chicks, that's a fact.

But what were you thinking

when you left my son out there

with those two idiots? I put him

in your custody, Emile,

and I expected of you

to look after him.

They wanted to get rid

of Cutie, who's been getting

on their nerves. - So, you took

Cutie instead of my son.

Go to bed.

Go to bed!

Don't roll your eyes!

We had a great time

with the girls, didn't we?

Do you think they liked us?

Sure they did! We are cool

and fun, we took them

on a ride in our boat...

- Yeah, super.

Those guys up there

are about to do some hard time.

Great, the next thing I'll catch

will be a nice cold.

Some scouts we are, this damn

thing is leaking everywhere.

We were a bit sloppy, and now

we'll get a little wet, so what?

Keep quiet and

try to get some sleep.

But how?

- With your eyes shut!

There's no soup

like beef soup.

It's good, really good.

Let's go, new adventures

await us out there!

Let me sleep just a little

longer, then we'll go.

Grandpa, where are you?

Grandpa!

I'll go slowly

to the other side.

Where are you?

On the other side,

in the void...

I like it here!

I don't know...

What if it is spoiled?

Are you nuts? I caught it alive.

- Then it must have been sick.

It'll be delicious,

when it is grilled, you'll see.

Provided that I manage

to light this damn fire!

We can always eat it raw.

- Yuk.

The Japanese eat raw fish

all the time. Sushi.

There's nothing healthier

than raw fish.

Have you ever seen a Japanese

with any kind of allergy?

I've never seen any Japanese

except on TV.

And some tourists downtown.

I brought a cigarette lighter.

Just in case...

Look at Cutie.

That bandana on his arm means

that he's taking on a challenge,

the vow of silence.

Watch this!

Cutie, argh! Cutie!

Lf you call me Cutie

just one more time...

Boy, the rain was pouring

like hell, and thunderbolts

were crashing all around us.

- How was it boys?

Did you crap your pants?

- You said it would be fine!

Even meteorologists

can go wrong sometimes.

It's not an easy job.

- Storms can be very dangerous.

Thunderbolts...

- Women always panic.

Who ran back to the camp first?

- The girl's right. In the mountains,

thunderbolts kill on average...

- Would you shut up, please?

OK... - Spare us your statistics.

Look over there!

The boys are missing

the whole afternoon.

Were they injured or worse?

Should I keep looking

into the camera?

You can keep looking

at whatever you like.

Has anyone seen Esmeralda?

Esmeralda!

Why should we go back?

That camp is worse than school.

Let's stay up here

for a couple of days,

take a look around...

- Yeah, let's follow our noses.

My dad will go nuts.

- So what? What on earth

can he do to you, to us?

He's a real pain in the ass,

I've had enough of him!

- We'll say that we got lost.

My grandpa says

that freedom should be cherished.

Freedom!

Freedom!

With Alex and his gang missing

life here became a lot nicer.

But they should have

returned to the camp by now.

By 6 p. m. Today at the latest,

to be exact.

Has anyone seen them?

- No.

But we heard them screaming

yesterday. What?

What were they screaming?

OK, OK, we get the picture.

Any other observations

or comments?

Esmeralda is missing, too.

- Who?

The parrot.

That nasty bird.

I knew that bird would bring

nothing but trouble.

But don't you think that

three boys gone missing

is a more serious problem

than a bird gone missing?
