poisonous dingleberry bushes?

Please tell me these are props.

Mm...

thrinng?

This ugly roaster is 174.

Puffles mcuglykins,

that's number 175.

I just call him ugly for short.

Oh, he's ugly, all right!

That's all of 'em.

Move 'em out.

Those guys work for farmer sump!

I told you

it was a bad guy lair!

Shut up, you stupid birds.

Want me to close the door?

Hold on.

It's smelly.

No, it's...

totally dubious, if you ask me.

Yeah?

175 birds

Comin' all the way back

to sump's farm?

That's like a steer getting

homesick for the slaughterhouse.

Totally dubious.

What's dubious?

175 fugitive birds

coming back to sump's farm!

Well, that is dubious.

You heard

what old man sump said.

We don't keep these birds

under wraps,

It's going

to blow the whole deal.

Got to hand it to old man sump,

He's always got a plan

in the hopper.

Yeah.

And I'll tell you what...

what?

We need a piece of the action.

I mean, he's getting

this Emmerson place

On a debt that ain't even legit,

And we're doing

all the dirty work.

Shyeah...

tell you what...

we could blackmail him.

Yeah...

but he'd be probably

blackmail us right back.

I mean, he knows

all about my private dispensary

And my copper-Flipping

and my bootleg DVDs.

You got a point there.

Sump also knows about Larissa

being my first cousin.

And if that ever got out,

Larissa would totally

break up with me.

Hey!

What do we do?

Get her!

Stop right there,

girly-Girl!

Get her phone!

Stop! Stop!

Ow!

Hey! Pick on

someone your own size!

That really hurts on my leg!

Previous injury...

let go of me!

No, that's my life!

Stop it!

No!

Gee whiz!

No! No!

Yeah...

they're not going nowhere now.

Let's go tell sump.

Somebody, come here!

Please, help!

Annie?

Timmy?

We've been doing this

for hours, Cly.

I haven't seen a footprint

since the sun went down,

And do we even know

we're going the right way?

It's possible

you're looking too hard.

Just open up your mind

And let the universe

help you find your way.

Again with the universe...

listen, I'm trying

to respect your beliefs.

This isn't a phish concert.

My son and daughter are missing.

What?

What are you doing?

Turn your flashlight off.

What are we going to do,

smoke a peace pipe?

I want to try something.

It won't work without

your flashlight off.

Come on.

Turn it off.

Ned...

it's Cly and...

and Ron.

Oh, god, look at you!

You... come on!

- Work with me a little bit.

- I am.

Well, you're just standing there

Being so negative!

Try to be a little bit positive.

Honestly, Cly,

this is a huge waste of time.

And you know I don't believe

in any of this stuff.

You don't have to believe in it.

Just believe

in the possibility of it.

Ned...

I miss you.

I miss you so much.

And...

I know you loved this forest,

So I hope you're out there,

and you can hear me,

And, uh...

if you can...

it would be really great

If you could help us

find Timmy and Annie.

Really appreciate it.

Hope you listened.

Thank you, Ned.

What happened?

What'd I miss?

The moon came out.

Well, that's not

exactly a miracle...

no, but those footprints are.

Come on, we're back on track.

Hey, thanks, Ned.

I'll see you around.

Well, I mean,

I won't see you, but...

well, you know what I mean.

Annie...

I'm scared.

This is all my fault.

That's not true.

I'm older and smarter,

and I should have known better.

I've been eating

your Halloween candy.

What?

Uh, you may have noticed,

here and there...

the dark chocolate,

specifically.

I did.

I knew it was you.

Oh.

Well, sorry.

Look, you don't have to do this.

We're going to get out of here.

I mean, it's

partially your fault

For hoarding it

Like some kind of

doomsday survivalist.

I mean, just eat it already.

I...

dropped your curling iron

in the toilet.

What was the, uh...

status of the toilet

When you dropped it?

Lightly used.

I gave your crocs to good will.

My red crocs?

I was doing you a favor.

No one wears crocs anymore,

especially not every day,

And especially not boys.

I looked everywhere for those.

You knew I loved them!

Well, you'll forgive me

when you have a girlfriend.

I read your diary.

No way.

I especially liked the part

when you talk about

How you don't have a crush

on Tyler Healey,

But then you spend four pages

describing his hair.

You know what?

Maybe we should just stop

with the confessions.

I told you not to start.

I'm a real brat sometimes,

aren't I?

Only when you're awake.

I'm rude to dad.

I barely talk to mom.

I mean,

I love them both, it's just...

I know.

Me too.

They were supposed

to stick together,

No matter what...

you know, and make it work.

I mean, isn't that what parents

are for?

No.

That's what brothers

and sisters are for.

How'd you get out?

Annie.

Annie?

Annie!

Wake up, a turkey got out.

I can't breathe!

Feathers!

Come on, just breathe, please.

Just breathe.

Go away!

I can't breathe...

Deep breaths,

come on. In, out.

Help! Somebody!

Tim?

Annie!

Annie!

Hey!

Timmy!

Cly...

we've been out here all night.

It's time to bring in

the big guns.

No more chanting,

no more talking to ghosts.

We need rangers.

We need helicopters.

We need dogs!

Help!

Somebody, please! Somebody!

Did you?

Yeah, I heard it, too.

Timmy!

Help! We need help!

Someone!

Somebody, please help!

Tim!

What's that thing doing

all the way out here?

We're in here!

Annie!

We're in here!

Come on!

Annie can't breathe!

What?

Annie can't breathe!

Her allergies!

Hurry, dad, they're everywhere!

What's everywhere?

Sump's turkeys!

Their feathers!

Sump?

That conniving son of a...

Cly!

Listen, Timmy, stand back!

I'm going to get you

out of here!

Come on, Annie.

Careful, Ronnie!

Cly, I got this.

Stand back!

Ronnie, it's a steel

roll-Up door!

You're going

to dislocate your shoulder!

Listen, I've seen Liam Neeson

do this a hundred times.

That guy's old enough

to be my grandfather.

I can do this.

Tim, you get back!

- What in the?

- Ronnie...

what you're about to see

must never leave this forest.

You understand?

Don't worry, dad's here.

He's going to get us out.

Don't worry.

Just keep breathing.

Zorp, zorp...

squonk, thanks for coming.

Oh, burble.

Thank god, you made it.

Zorp!

I knew I could count on you.

Thrinng!

What the ffffuuuzzzy...

animals?

There are two kids

trapped in that shed over there,

And we need your help.

We've got to get them out.

I need you to eat rocks

like you've never eaten before,

Okay?

All right.

Go to it! Go!

That means you, too, thrinng.

Go, go, go!

Squonk! Squonk!

What're you staring at?

You've got to help.

Pry away the rocks.

Come on.

Hey, Timmy, can you hear me?

Dad, hurry!

We're coming through!

Hurry, dad!

Come on, please!

Come on, guys.

Come on, hurry.

Hang in there, kiddo!

We're coming, guys!

Hurry!

Hey, boss?

Uh, what should we do

with them two kids

Locked up in the facili... uh...
