lsn't it beautiful?

Come on, Daddy!

This way, into the forest!

Wow. The princesses

sure live in a beautiful forest.

No, because this part's all burned.

Yes, burned from a big forest fire.

No, Sopida's dragon burnt it all.

Sopida has a dragon?

And if you want to get past her,

you have to sing a song she likes.

l gotta sing a song

to Sopida's dragon, too?

- Hurry. She's coming!

- What? She's coming where?

Sing.

Sopida's dragon, please let me pass

Sopida's dragon

You gotta do better than that.

Sopida's dragon, please let me pass

Try higher.

Sopida's dragon, please let...

- Higher, like a mouse!

- You want me to have an aneurysm?

Sopida's dragon, please let me pass

She very hates that.

- l'm with her.

- Try lower, like a frog.

Okay, like a frog.

Sopida's dragon, please let me pass

Sopida's dragon...

She very likes that. She fell asleep.

Come on. Let's go.

Now we can go through her cave. Duck!

All right, going into the cave.

That's a big, beautiful cave we're in.

No, it's tiny. Can't you see?

Okay. My eyes are just adjusting still.

That's why...

Jump, Daddy! Jump!

- Jump? Why am l jumping? Okay.

- Jump till you get in!

Okay, you're in.

- Now you're out.

- Okay. What was l in?

- France!

- l was in France?

- Now, we're on the beach.

- Okay. We're on the beach now.

All right. Great! ls it a nice beach here?

Only 'cause mermaids give us

popcorn balls.

That's so nice.

Thank you for the popcorn balls!

Oh, no! Someone's coming!

Sopida, no! Sopida, you can't!

Can't what? What happened?

What's going on?

She doesn't trust you!

She's throwing rocks at you!

- Why? Why...

- Duck, Daddy! Duck!

l'm ducking! But what did Daddy do?

Why's she throwing rocks at me?

Don't know what l did.

Up the path!

Go back down!

- This way.

- Okay.

Okay, we made it. There they are.

Hi, Kupida! Hi, Mopida!

- Hey.

- Say something nice.

Hey, Kupida and Mopida, how are you?

Good to see you.

My name is Evan Danielson,

and l'm Olivia's dad.

They already know who you are.

Okay.

lt's good to see you.

You look so nice and pretty,

the two of you.

My, you really outdid yourself today.

l'm here to ask you. l was wondering...

- Are you sure they're...

- Yeah. They're watching.

l was gonna... l have some...

l want to ask about magnesium futures

and their relationship to

Bolivian currency fluctuations.

Specifically, these three companies,

La Paz Ore and lron,

and lnternational Mining

and Weston Metallurgy Limited.

Weston Metallurgy.

These three. l was wondering if you...

Can they see them?

l don't want to be in your way.

Okay, what are they doing?

Are they talking?

- Yeah.

- What are they talking about?

They're talking.

Really?

Are you sure?

Okay.

Yes, no, no.

Did they give a reason?

- Because it's fancy?

- That's exactly right, sir. Fancy.

But you're also saying, and this is what

strikes me as contradictory,

that we should abandon all interests

in Weston Metallurgy.

- That's correct.

- Because the boliviano is going to...

What did he say again?

"Be a big, dumb showoff

and fall off its bike."

No. Trike.

And nobody likes a big, dumb showoff.

Well, no offense, son,

but sounds to me like

a load of what you just stepped in.

Well, that's why we brought

Mr. Whitefeather along, right?

What you got, son?

Mr. Rowe, that's funny.

The country's entire monetary system

reduced to riding around on a tricycle.

That's a laugh. lt's good to laugh.

lt's good to laugh, man.

But there's a time to be serious.

We're out here in these holy mountains

that we call Rocky.

They're full of predator, prey.

The lion of the mountain

knows when to pounce.

Better watch out, jack-bunny...

- Excuse me, one moment.

- Yeah, okay.

Love the new act, man.

- Fun character.

- Thank you.

You know, there's an old tribal saying,

"lt's not the paint

that makes the warrior."

- What?

- Be well, brother. Be well.

Evan, l ever tell you

about Billy Littlesnake,

a guy l used to go fishing with

in Montana?

l think you spared me that story.

He'd go fishing

where nobody else fished

and always come back with 10 fat trout.

Turned out he was stopping off

at the market and buying them.

l'm not insider trading,

if that's what you're saying.

Whoa, come on. Let's don't go into

those woods. All right?

- There's a lot of bear in those woods.

- Hey, listen. Stop that thing.

lf you're going to talk to me,

don't do that thing you do.

You want me to speak directly?

l can do that.

Then do it.

You want to run with me, Evan,

then run with me.

l accept the challenge. l welcome it.

But if l find out that you're stopping off

at the market and buying your fat trout,

l'm gonna scalp you.

You're gonna scalp me. Literally?

lt's gonna feel literal, yeah.

Nice chatting with you, Johnny.

And you, Evan.

Hey, Ev, good to see you. Okay.

Let me tell you something

about Johnny Whitefeather.

Under all the show,

l'm good at what l do.

l have a gift. l see trends.

l see patterns.

l see things no one else will ever see.

Evan is good, but he's not that good.

l want you to find out

where he's getting his information.

Sopida's dragon, please let me pass

- She's in a good mood tonight.

- That's great.

We're all in a good mood.

Let's go through the cave then!

Let's get in the cave,

going through the cave.

Ducking down!

lt's a little above my head in the cave.

And now we're coming out in France.

We're in France!

All right.

And now we're back on the beach again.

On the wonderful beach

with Kupida and Mopida.

Hello, Kupida and Mopida!

How are the princesses today?

- They're good.

- They're good. That's great.

That's great.

Hold on to this for a second, honey.

- Yeah.

- Okay, now.

Ladies, l want to talk to you

about something.

First, let me tell you that those gowns

you're wearing look exquisite.

They look exquisite, ladies.

l'll just go right out and say it.

Am l looking in the right direction here?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

l have a potential client

who is in the medical field

and he has a particular company.

He was wondering if

he should hold on to that company.

And l was wondering if you ladies

had any feelings about that.

The company is called VallaTech.

l've just been hearing

so many incredible things about it.

We were just wondering

what you princesses thought.

- What do they think?

- Maybe.

Maybe?

Because Kupida very liked it,

and Mopida very hated it.

Okay, so, now what do we do?

lf they disagree, we have to see Qwali,

but she's at her mountain castle.

Okay. Well,

where's the mountain castle?

There.

Now, does Qwali have to be out

by this bridge in front of my building,

all these people all over the place,

where everybody can see us?

We are not by a bridge.

We're at the bottom of

Qwali's mountain!

And there's no one here

except you and me,

and maybe Qwali,

if she likes the way you dance.

Dance? l have to dance for Qwali, too?

Yeah. Because there's a ball tonight,
