Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs Page #2

Synopsis: After the events of "Ice Age: The Meltdown", life begins to change for Manny and his friends: Scrat is still on the hunt to hold onto his beloved acorn, while finding a possible romance in a female sabre-toothed squirrel named Scratte. Manny and Ellie, having since become an item, are expecting a baby, which leaves Manny anxious to ensure that everything is perfect for when his baby arrives. Diego is fed up with being treated like a house-cat and ponders the notion that he is becoming too laid-back. Sid begins to wish for a family of his own, and so steals some dinosaur eggs which leads to Sid ending up in a strange underground world where his herd must rescue him, while dodging dinosaurs and facing danger left and right, and meeting up with a one-eyed weasel known as Buck who hunts dinosaurs intently.

- I'm trying!

You know, experts say that you should

let the kids eat whatever they want.

- Do you think my ankles look fat?

- Ankles. What ankles?

Ronald, Where did you come from?

Oh No!

Okay come on spit him out!

If you don't spit out, Little Johnny,

We're leaving the playground

this instantly, one...

...two.. Don't make me say three.

- There we are, a picture of health.

- That's not little Johnny.

- Well better than nothing.

- Madison!

- Come on, barf him up!

- Sid!

- Hello, Manny.

- Little Johnny!

Oh wait... No! No!

Oh I'm really sorry.

This place is totalled.

- And we didn't reck it.

- We're losing our touch bro!

The important thing is that no

one got hurt. Except for that guy.

And, and those three... and her.

I told you to take them back, and

you kept them! Now look what they've done.

Okay granted, we do have

some discipline issues.

Eating kids is not

a discipline issue.

- But he spit them out!

- Well that's super, lets give him a gold star!

They don't belong here, Sid.

Whatever they are, wherever

you found them, take them back.

Manny, I'm not getting rid of my kids!

Earthquake!

It's Okay, It's okay, mamma's here!

Do earthquakes, shriek?

- I thought those guys were extinct.

- Well then, that is one angry fossil. Sid!

Come on, inside, inside, inside.

Nobody move a muscle!

No, no, no, don't cry.

We are poor little lambs

who have lost our way.

Baah, baaah!

Ahhhh!

- Sid! Give them to her. She's their mother.

- How do I know, she's their mother?

What do you want, a birth

certificate? She's a Dinosaur!

Well I've put in the, blood,

sweat and tears to raise them.

- For a day! Give them back, you Lunatic!

- Look these are my kids!

And your gonna have to go

through me to get them!

- Sid!

- Help!

- Run!

- Don't you have anything better to do?

- Help!

- Sid?

- Sid must be down there.

- Well, his dead! Real shame.

- He will be missed.

- Oh no, no, no. Not so fast.

Okay. Ellie, this is where I draw the line.

You, Crash and Eddie back to the village.

Yeah that's gonna happen.

Ellie! You saw that thing?

This is gonna be dangerous.

Talk to the trunk.

Oh great, after we save

Sid! I'm gonna kill him.

- Ladies first!

- Age before beauty!

- No pain no gain!

- What pain?

- Sid?

- Sid?

Oh no, no, no! Not good. Not good.

Ellie! Ellie! Wait up!

Okay look, if you feel anything,

even if it's nothing...

...you gotta tell me.

And we're outta here.

We need a code word.

Yeah, something that says, "the baby's coming. "

Hmm. How about, "Aaah! The

baby's coming!" How's that?

Nah, too long. We need something

short and punchy, like, uh... "peaches"!

Peaches?

I love peaches, they're

sweet and round and fuzzy.

- Just like you.

- You think I'm round?

Uhh... Round is good.

Round is, foxy!

Stay close.

- Are you guys havin' the same dream I am?

- We've been living above an entire world.

And we didn't even know it.

Run for it! Hurry.

- Diego, what are you doing here?

- Sight seeing. Looking for Sid, same as you!

Well aren't you noble.

This is not the time guys.

We need all the help we can get!

Never mind!

Here, boy. Here, come on!

Are you nuts! We're

not getting on that thing!

It's either this

dinosaur, or that one!

Pregnant lady, wants a lift.

Yabba, dabba, Do!

Don't ever, yabba, dabba, do that again!

- I feel so... puny.

- How do you think I feel?

Ouch!

Take cover!

Dude, you're awesome!

You're like the brother I never had! Me too.

Can we keep him?

- Buck.

- What?

The name's Buck.

Short for, Buck-Minster.

Long for, buh!

A little dull.

- What are you doing here?

- Our friend was taken by a dinosaur.

Well, his dead. Welcome to my world.

Now, uh, go home.

- Off you pop!

- Not without, Sid.

Ellie wait, maybe the

deranged hermit has a point.

Manny! We came this

far, we're gonna find him.

I got tracks.

Let's go.

If you go in there, you'll find

your friend... in the AFTER-LIFE!

How do you know? Oh

great and wisely, weasely one.

Mummy dinosaur carrying three babies,

and some floppy green thing?

Yeah, we're friends with

the floppy green thing.

You got all that from the tracks?

No, not really. I saw 'em come through

here earlier. She's headed for Lava Falls.

That's where they care, for the newborns.

To get there! You got to go

through the jungle of misery.

Across the chasm of death.

- To the plates of wow.

- Wow!

Okay! Good luck with the slow decadence

to madness, we're gonna go now.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa! Whoa!

What, you-You think this is

some sort of tropical getaway?

You can't protect your mate! Mate!.

What are you gonna do

with those-Those flimsy tusks..?

When you run into the Beast?

I call him "Rudy".

Oh good. Good. I was worried it was

something intimidating, like, Sheldon or Tim.

Wait! You mean there's something

bigger than Mommy Dinosaur..?

Aye!

- Aye?

- Aye! Aye!

- He's the one that gave me this

- Whoa. He gave you that patch?

- For free? That's so cool.

- Yeah, maybe he'll give us one, too!

Welcome to my world.

- Abandon all hope, he who enters there!

- Alright we get it!

Doom and despair.

Yadda, yadda, yadda!

(SCREAMING)

(ECHOING)

Sounds like a jungle of misery to me.

- Hold on.

- Why, what's wrong? Peaches?

- No, it's just I got a funny feeling.

- You're hungry. Low blood sugar!

- There's some fruit. - No, Manny!

- I wouldn't do that, if I were you.

- This isn't exactly your playground.

- Like I'm going to be afraid of a pretty flower.

- Bet you didn't see that coming?

- Manny?

For the record, I blame you for this.

Stop eating our friends, plant!

- That's it, I'm tearing it up, from the roots.

- Do that and it'll clamp-Shut forever.

Alright, preggers.

Don't get your trunk in a knot.

I'll have them out of

there before they're digested.

Digested?

They'll be nothing

but bones in 3 minutes.

- Well maybe 5 for the fat one!

- I'm not fat!

I feel tingly.

Don't say that, when

your pressed up against me.

- Not that kind of tingly.

- I can feel it too.

- Help, someone help us!

- Hurry!

It's time to get... Buck wild.

Who's fat now?

No!

- Tourists.

- Puked on by a plant. Awesome!

- Say something.

- Thank's for saving us.

Will you help us find

the floppy green thing?

- That's not necessary.

- Yes it is.

Alright I'll help ya. But I got

rules. Rule number one:

Always listen to Buck.

Rule number two:

Stay in the middle of the trail.

Rule number three:

He who has gas, travels

at the back of the pack.

- Come on then, chop, chop!

- We should all have our heads examined.
