as sweet as your tongue.

Wait! No!

Your Loveliness, feast on

the beauty of your reflection.

You are an angel, Miss Meg.

Look. Look.

Ohhh.

What a splendid idea.

Clever boy!

Yes.

Your alchemy makes

crusted steel shine like silver.

That's discerning taste...

for one so young, Jack.

Come. Come, Jack!

Give us a kiss...

before dining!

I did it!

Screwball!

Oh, okay. Okay.

Oh! Whee! Look.

What a big trumpet!

I'll bet it makes a lot of noise.

Our lives are lost if it blows.

Hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Oh!

I think it stopped.

Look out!

My back! Me achin' back!

Oh, I'm not as old

as I used to be, you know.

Ooh. Hey, where are we?

Someplace

we don't want to be.

Hey, hey!

Wait for me!

We gotta get out of here!

It's the stench of hell itself!

Shh! Quiet!

You'll be fricasseed fairies

if you don't keep quiet.

Who be you, bucket head?

Who I am won't help me

nor you, neither,

even though

we are all brothers.

What happened to you?

It's a long story.

Let's just say

I went looking for adventure...

and found

more than I could handle.

Doesn't matter now anyway.

We are all in the same fix!

I knew it. I knew it.

I should have stayed at home.

Let's face it, brothers.

Me and you all...

is barbecue.

Barbecue?

That's right. Barbecue.

Only dead meat waits

for the stew pot.

Spring the lock

with your magic, Gump.

Ooh!

Ah!

Iron is trouble for elves.

Iron, huh?

Oh!

Oh, no!

The thing!

Oh, no!

He's coming! Hide!

Hide!

Hide! Hide!

Oh!

I don't think I can handle it!

Help me!

Let me go! Let me go!

Help! Help me!

Please! Please!

Help me!

Oh, you beast!

Help me!

Let me go!

Ah... ah... ah...

ah... ah... achoo!

Gump, we've got to help him.

Oh, don't worry. Our brother

can take care of himself.

I'm sure of it,

I think.

Screwball's right. It's more

important that you find the Unicorn.

Why not have Oona fly out,

find a key?

Oona?

But she's much too small.

Could never lift it.

Our secret!

Our secret will keep forever

in this grave if you don't help us.

You promised!

You willful sprite.

How dare you keep such secrets?

They're mine to keep.

I'll do what you ask...

if you'll kiss me, Jack.

Easy enough.

You call that a kiss?

Am I not sweet?

Sweeter than bee pollen...

on a summer wind.

Sweet as the wind

that blows me to you.

Oh, it's fairy magic.

Lily?

- Lily?

- Yes, Jack.

This isn't real.

Oh, it is.

I'm warm and alive...

and want to be in your arms.

No, I, I can't. No.

This is just

more fairy glamour.

Human hearts

don't work that way.

What care I

for human hearts?

Soft and spiritless

as porridge!

A fairy's heart beats

fierce and free!

Oona!

Your fine sensibilities

have left us here to rot!

I'm behind you all the way, Gump.

You look like mourners

at your own funeral.

Oona!

Quick, lads!

You!

You mortal, you!

I could vex you!

Dance your life away!

Uh, I'll stay here and-

Ahh! Wait for me!

A terrible sight

for a sober man.

Shh!

We must find the dungeons.

I think I'll stay right here,

thank you very much.

You'll search

with the rest of us.

Then I'll go with Jack.

No! We split up.

Yes! It's better

if we go in teams.

- No, I will go with Ja-

- Shh!

Gump and me,

Brown Tom and Screwball.

Right. Let's synchronize.

Oh!

Oh! A-ha!

We meet back here in twice

Do you know what I think? I think we should

add a couple more hundred breaths of a-

Shh!

Take care.

Come on, Jack.

Be careful.

There's only one thing

I want to know. What?

Why me?

Shh!

I think we should go west.

I think we should go east.

Oh, okay.

Wait!

Father, I hold the world

in my grasp,

and yet this girl...

distracts me.

It has been an eternity

since I felt such desire.

What am I to do?

She fascinates you

because her soul is pure.

I'll take her then.

Fool!

You must woo her!

She remembers the world

as it was,

so... tempt her.

Win her.

Make her one of us.

Hmm. Hey. Psst!

Psst! Psst!

Did, did you see something?

No, did you?

I don't know.

I think.

D- D-D-Did you hear that?

What's that?

That's a horse,

you idiot.

Woo her.

Win her.

Woo her, win her.

Make her one of us.

Lady, do not be afraid.

Quiet, quiet.

How like you my gifts?

Does the gown

not please you?

No.

Can you speak so

of your bridal gown?

I've found my true mate,

and you know it.

- Never.

- Beneath the skin, we are already one.

Was it not your sin

trapped the Unicorn?

- No.

- Even now...

the evil seed

of what you have done...

germinates within you.

No. You lie.

You disgust me.

You're nothing

but an animal.

We are all animals,

my lady.

Most are too afraid

to see it.

- Lily!

- Jack.

There's nothing

you can do now to help her.

Be thankful she still lives.

You've got to help us,

Jack.

The last Unicorn dies

tonight.

- As her blood ebbs,

- Never.

the sun sets forever.

There shall never be

another dawn.

No!

Lady, I require the solace

of the shadows...

and the dark of the night.

Sunshine is my destroyer!

Damn you!

We are all of us damned,

my queen.

As long as the sun still shines,

we can destroy him.

Let me dazzle you

with my wisdom.

I think I know a way.

Come on, come on, come on.

You're holding us up.

Listen. We're not going down

the same corridor umpteen times.

I think we should go that way.

No, we're going this way.

No, not me.

Let's go down there.

Stay close to me now.

You know what?

What?

I vote we run like hell.

I second the motion.

Screwball.

Where were you?

In another three flicks of a

badger's tail, we would have gone.

While you're having fun,

time goes by fast.

Yeah, we found the mare,

and it's alive in the dungeon.

Excellent.

Excellent, you two!

Thank you very much.

Now Jack has a plan,

and a good one!

We must gather every

shining object we can find.

We're going to bring light

to darkness.

Blunder.

Blunder!

Shh!

Any more noise,

and you're shish kebab.

You do what we say, understand?

Swear it.

I swear it on the festering

forelock of Nicodemus!

Please, help. Help me.

Thank you.

Judge me not so harshly,

mistress.

I invite you

to share this supper.

Look how sweet it is.

Hurry, hurry. Keep 'em

comin'! Come on, come on!

Ow!

- Brown Tom!

- Huh?

Gump? Gump!

Gump?

Jack. Jack!

Three cheers

for our champion!

Hip hip!

Hooray!

- Hip hip!

- Hooray!

Hip hip!

Hooray!

Now what, Jack?

Must go all the way out.

Light.

Not much to hold on to.

Take a pea pod pixie

to make that climb.

I'll do it.

What's the matter? Ain't

I small enough for the job?

No job is too small

for my little brother.

Please, Gump. Let me try.

I won't let you down.

All right, all right.

Do it, but be swift!

Oh, thank you, thank you.

You'll never regret it.

I always knew you'd be

going places, Screwball. Yes.

Uh-

- Eat.

- I'm not hungry.

You lie.

Just to please me.

I do nothing

for your pleasure.

All I wish...

is for you to sit

and talk with me.

Sit?

- Here?

- Yes.

Please.

- I prefer to stand.

- Sit!
