Accompanied by his sidekick Grayson -- a goose who ate a bean and underwent an amazing transformation -- Jack climbs the magic beanstalk to recover the fabled Harp of Destiny from the evil Giant who lives in the sky.

a real hero, excellent.

So, what's your quest?

- Quest?

Well, every hero needs a quest,

the great and worthy goal?

Well, I don't have one.

No problem, we'll see what's available.

The Golden Flist

Arc of confident?

Ah that reserved for the chap

with the head and the...

Oh, he's great. Yeah.

Atlantis? How long can

you hold your breath?

No, no.

The impossible dream. Do you sing it all?

Well, there is not much

left, I mean there's the...

Wait, ow no I don't think this

was for you, its too difficult.

What is it?

Well, its "Destiny Harp" the

golden harp that's been stolen

and it needs to be return.

Its need a hero with

a little more experience, short

of the sequel quest, really.

I can do it.

Well, I guess its up to you then.

What is this?

Everybody has a story, but only

a few are worthy of being told.

One more thing...

Is this a key?

What is it open?

Well, maybe it'll open

something for you and

you need it maybe a little close

something for you as well one day.

And, what's that?

Oh, the store owner give it to me

and he said it was a heroes quest.

Again with the hero stuff.

Your father wasn't a hero Jack.

No matter what you may wanna believe...

about secret mission,

saving damsel and spooring giants.

But in the end, he just left us.

Didn't you believe any of it?

Well, there is the time...

No, It was just stories.

And he never came home,

that was no fairytale.

We cant eat dreams Jack. I

wish we could but we cant.

Don't worry mom, I'll help

out first thing tomorrow.

Alright sweetheart.

- Good night.

What was I thinking?

What is that?

Who's said that?

What are these things?

And I can do these with them?

Wow, cool.

What happened to you?

Well, as far as I can see, I ate a bean.

They were magic?

Of course, they were magic.

So, if you're you... and the beans...

Wow.

Hey Jack, where you going?

This maybe the coolest thing ever.

The coolest?

Hello?

thus begins his quest

for Destiny's Harp...

Alright Grayson. Come on, let's go.

Up, up there?

Well, yeah.

I... I don't think so.

I'm not good with high...

and I'm not good with quest either.

I have an old war quest injury.

You know what, go up there,

take plenty of pictures,

send me a post card and

give my love for the Harp.

You know what, you're right.

Why don't you stay down there

and look out for

the big bad wolf, okay.

Wolf?

Don't you just love climbing Jack?

Got my helmet, got my rope.

Ha ha.

A beanstalk, this is just what I need.

Hey Grayson. I could see

our house from here.

Oh, that's nice.

Can I go downs there get

some worm on the way.

Jack, would you slow

down a second, please...

Hey.

I can't hold on much longer.

I'm so cold, I have me bumps.

You're a goose, you could always fly.

Oh yes, that's a good idea.

If its were yesterday.

But you could use the thumbs.

What do you say?

I would an output.

What now?

I wanna see if there is

any mention of breakfast.

You know, like some bacon,

fish brown, waffles maybe.

Oh, here its come.

Climbing the beanstalk probability

cold and held many other hardships.

Hardships? That's plural.

Why cant it just be one hardships,

its a bunch of hardships.

Nothing in the book that

says Grayson makes some a

bangle of smears, a cup of

coffee and everything's fine.

How many hardships can it be?

Hey fellas, remember me?

Define irony.

I'll get you for that, Maury.

We've made it.

Let go.

I'm trying but my thumbs

have the mind of their own.

And I think that maybe stupid.

OK, on three. Ready.

Okay, ah Jack and Grayson.

Excuse me.

Raise your voice, he's probably deaf.

Scream it out louder.

Just scream it out.

- EXCUSE ME.

Is that Destiny's Harp?

I cant believe you scream

it out on the old man,

What's the mat... kids.

Sir, I'm sorry I didn't mean to yell.

Its not that, its just you said that word.

You know that word?

Destiny's harp?

Is that it?

No no, this is just a cheap imitation.

This is beautiful.

Well it should be, he's a master craftsman.

See, it made by the

legendary stradaberries.

No, that's not it.

- But its says right here, Stradaberries.

My name is Very Saddius.

Oh, yeah.

Well he's well-known to... I guess.

How I love my Destiny...

Yeah, I love my destiny too.

I only wish I knew what my destiny was.

One minute, I'm a goose.

I was wondering around picking

at worms, everything's great.

Then I wake up and I've got

this face, its hideous...

No, its not that destiny.

Destiny is my granddaughter.

She was always a harp.

She was a beautiful little girl, with the

voice that good make the angles weep.

She was the light of my heart...

until the giant heard her singing...

and wanted the songs for himself.

Oh Giant its evil.

He plunders everything he want.

He took my Destiny...

Sing for me... Sing.

Never.

She was use to sing for the brute.

So he using the last of the stolen poison,

he cast a spell and turn her into

a Golden Harp.

I tried to rescue her so many others

but nobody can defeat the giant.

That's why, I tried to make another

harp to exchange for her.

Ask him one question and
