- Um...

thanks?

both:
Just be careful, Arnold.

[upbeat music]

- That sure is

a lot of luggage, Miss Rhonda.

- One bag for every day

of the trip.

That's how I pack.

- Harold, why do you have

a deli platter?

- My mom gave me this

in case there's no food

in San Lorenzo.

- There's plenty of food there,

Harold.

No platter necessary.

- No platter?

[crashing,

cat yowling]

[playful music]

- Oh, Arnold,

though on the outside

I appear to hate the idea

of going to some godforsaken

jungle with you,

'tis merely a guise!

I'll help you find

your long-lost parents

and just maybe...

- [gasps]

- Surprise, baby sister!

I'm coming along

on your San Lorenzo trip

as the student teacher-slash-

chaperone.

Goody!

- Are you kidding me?

This is the worst news ever!

- I'm worried about your safety

in this St. Lawrence place,

Olga.

- I'll be fine.

Thanks, Bob.

- Oh, good, you're here.

Take this bag of beepers

with you

and sell them to the locals.

- Arnold.

You're going to the jungle,

so don't catch

any tropical diseases

like malaria,

or diphtheria,

or cholera,

or yellow fever,

or hookworm,

or elephantiasis,

or leprosy,

or tennis elbow!

[exciting music]

- Ah!

- Or itchy armpits!

Or boom boom fever

or Aulder's neck rash!

- Hey! Crazy lady!

Get out of my stair truck!

- [cackling]

- Or Palmer's knee,

or Borneo's disease!

Or--I don't know,

athlete's foot!

- You know, I'm really gonna

miss Grandma and Grandpa.

- [squeals]

- Abner!

What are you doing here?

- [squeals happily]

- Guess your grandpa

wasn't gonna let you

leave your pig behind, Arnold.

- [laughs]

Yep.

I guess we've got a stowaway.

[percussive music]

- [screams]

My hair!

- You know what they say,

Rhonda.

It's not the heat.

It's the humidity.

- Class, let's stay together

while we explore

and then go to the river docks

at 3:
00 p.m.,

then it's on the boat, and--

[children yelling]

Stop!

Running is not on the agenda!

River docks at 3:00!

- Come on, baby sister!

- [squeals]

- [screams]

Ugh.

- Miss me?

- Ugh!

- Well, Arnold,

we made it to San Lorenzo.

So, where do we start

looking for your parents?

- Sorry, Gerald, I promised

Grandpa I wouldn't,

but he did say I could find

their best friend, Eduardo.

[horn honking]

I found this old envelope

with Eduardo's address on it.

[tense music]

Here it is.

[knocks on door]

- Whoa.

- What happened?

[television blares]

It looks like Eduardo

kind of left in a hurry.

- [sniffs]

[anxious squealing]

- Abner, what is it, boy?

- I don't know

what's bugging Abner,

but we better get back

and meet Simmons, Arnold.

We can't miss the boat.

[crowd cheering]

- Hello! Welcome!

You must be Mr. Simmons

and your PS 118 class.

My name is Eduardo.

all:
Hi, Eduardo.

both:
Eduardo?

- [gasps]

Arnold.

Could it be?

Arnold, it's me,

your parents' best friend.

Qu buena fortuna.

I am the captain

of this boat,

and I will take you

up the river to the rainforest.

We'll go straight

to the habitat

that my group,

Helpers for Humanity, made.

- Yes, like my parents.

- Of course.

We all worked together.

- Hi, I'm Gerald.

What a relief.

We thought something bad--

- Captain Eddie?

Is there a toilet

on this boat?

- Of course, of course,

disculpe.

Where are my manners?

Everyone, all aboard!

[all cheering]

- We're on the boat,

we're on schedule...

The captain even knows Arnold.

This'll be a perfect trip.

- I couldn't agree more,

Mr. Simmons.

- I want to introduce

my crew.

This is Paolo.

- Hey.

- Steve.

- Hola.

- And Che.

[bright Latin rhythm music]

- Oh!

- Everybody loves Olga.

[whistle blows]

- I still can't believe I'm in

San Lorenzo with you, Eduardo.

- Is it fate?

Who knows?

- Eduardo, I have to know:

where are my parents?

Are they alive?

- Ah, qu lstima.

That's a mystery I have not

yet solved either, amigo.

But I bet you'd like to hear

my stories of your parents.

- Yes, please!

- Ha! Let's see.

Eh, your father...

was always bumping into things

and breaking them.

I think the first three times

he met your mother,

he broke something.

[laughs]

His arm, his head...

[laughs]

They were both

my best friends.

[tranquil music]

[haunting pipe music]

Your father would want you

to have this.

It was a gift to him

from the Green-Eyed People.

You know,

they helped each other

many times.

- Huh?

- Ay, qu--

I've never seen

this happen before.

You truly must be chosen,

Arnold,

chosen by the Green-Eyes.

Surely you know that

when you were born,

that you silenced

the erupting volcano,

Volcn Turriable?

- It was in my dad's journal.

- The Green-Eyes saw that, too.

It fulfilled a prophecy.

Maybe when we are upriver,

we--you and me--

we will find

the Green-Eyed People.

Maybe they will know

the answer

to the mystery

of your parents.

- Hey, Arnold.

It's buffet time.

- I, uh...

- Go on, play, Arnold, play.

Friends should be

with friends.

- I love buff-ets!

- Ooh, pitaya!

[laughs]

Well, I guess I'll add pitaya

to my allergy list.

- I finished all

the deli sandwiches,

the carne con whiskers...

Ooh!

Ah!

[stomach rumbling]

Hmm!

Clear the bathroom! Emergency!

Kill me now!

- [giggles]

- Man, Olga makes it look

so easy.

What's her secret?

Besides being pretty

and charming and nice.

- I'm queen of the world!

- [gags]

Time to feed the fish!

- Hey, ocupado!

- Hey, Eduardo.

What are you looking at?

- Oh, nothing, Arnold, nothing.

But this is the jungle,

and you must always be aware

of the dangers here.

- Like Lasombra?

- So, you've heard about

the infamous Lasombra?

He was not happy

that your parents

stole back from him

a precious treasure

called the Corazn.

- Is he after me?

We're in danger, aren't we?

- We could turn around

and head back to safety,

or we can continue ahead,

and maybe

find out about your parents.

- What?

But I promised...

No.

With you to protect us,

we keep going.

- Now, don't tell the others

what we spoke about.

I don't want

to worry anyone.

[haunting music]

- Anything wrong, Arnold?

- Uh, nothing.

Everything's fine.

- Come on, man.

There's no secrets with us,

right?

And now you've got

some secret

with this guy you just met?

Fine.

- [exhales]

Arnold, what a surprise.

I came up here to think

about life and stuff.

- Yeah, me too.

- So...up here,

staring into the night,

trying to figure out

how to tell me something, huh?

- [sighs]

Well, actually,

I do have something

to confess.

- Confess?

Like a confession?

Like a deep-seated secret

you've been harboring

and haven't told me?

- Yeah.

You ever feel like

there's a hole in your heart?

- Yes.

All the time.

- This whole trip's

been about one thing.

I want to find

my lost parents.

I feel like I'm about

to put us all in--

- Yeah, yeah, I know

all about your parents.

How do you feel about me?

- Huh?

- You wouldn't even

be here without me.

Oh, Arnold, I may act

like I don't care,

I may even say
