Monsters, Inc. Page #7

Synopsis: A city of monsters with no humans called Monstropolis centers around the city's power company, Monsters, Inc. The lovable, confident, tough, furry blue behemoth-like giant monster named James P. Sullivan (better known as Sulley) and his wisecracking best friend, short, green cyclops monster Mike Wazowski, discover what happens when the real world interacts with theirs in the form of a 2-year-old baby girl dubbed "Boo," who accidentally sneaks into the monster world with Sulley one night. And now it's up to Sulley and Mike to send Boo back in her door before anybody finds out, especially two evil villains such as Sulley's main rival as a scarer, chameleon-like Randall (a monster that Boo is very afraid of), who possesses the ability to change the color of his skin, and Mike and Sulley's boss Mr. Waternoose, the chairman and chief executive officer of Monsters, Inc.

which is right here

in this factory.

How could this happen?

Oh, how could this happen?

Does anyone else

know about this?

No, sir.

Good.

This company can't afford

any more bad publicity.

Now, before we do

anything else, let's...

take care of the child.

Oh, I never thought things

would come to this...

not in my factory.

I'm sorry you boys

got mixed up in this.

Especially you,James.

But now we can set

everything straight again

for the good of the company.

( whirring )

( thunk )

MIKE:

Uh...

sir, that's not her door.

I know, I know.

It's yours.

( startled gasps )

( grunts )

( yelling )

No!

( gasps )

( voice echoing ):

Boo!

( gasps )

No! No!

No! No! No! No!

No!

( desperate grunts )

It's too late!

We're banished, genius.

We're in the human world!

Oh, what a great idea, going

to your old pal Waternoose!

Too bad he was in

on the whole thing!

All you had to do was listen

to me--just once!

But you didn't, did you?

You're still not listening!

( yelling )

( Sulley grunting and groaning )

Take that!

( growling )

( gasps in horror )

Welcome to the Himalayas!

( wind gusting )

''Abominable''!

( chuckles )

Can you believe that?

Do I look abominable to you?

Why can't they call me

the Adorable Snowman or...

or the Agreeable Snowman,

for crying out loud?

I'm a nice guy.

Snow cone?

Yuck.

No, no, no.

Don't worry--

it's lemon.

Uh, how about

you, big fella?

Snow cone?

Did you see the way she...

looked at me?

( sighs )

Ah, poor guy.

I understand.

It ain't easy

being banished.

Take my buddy, Bigfoot.

When he was banished

he fashioned an enormous diaper

out of poison ivy.

Wore it on his head

like a tiara.

Called himself King Itchy.

Ah, it won't be so hard for

you guys, though, you know.

I mean, how lucky

can you get?

Banished with your

best friend.

He is not my friend.

Oh. I just assumed you

were buddies, you know

when I saw you out

there in the snow

hugging and all that.

Look at that big jerk.

Ruined my life, and for what?

A stupid kid!

Because of you,

I am now stuck

in this frozen

wasteland!

Wasteland?

I think you mean wonderland!

I mean, how about

all this fabulous snow, huh?

Oh, and wait till you see

the local village.

Cutest thing in the world.

I haven't even mentioned

all the free yak's milk.

What... what did you say?

Yak's milk.

Milking a yak

ain't exactly a picnic.

You know, once you pick

the hairs out

it's very nutritious.

No, no. Something

about a village.

Where?

Are there kids in it?

Kids? Sure.

Tough kids, sissy kids,

kids who climb on rocks...

Where is it?!

It's at the bottom

of the mountain.

Around a three-day hike.

Oh, three days?!

We need to get there now!

( thuop )

( ding )

You want to go to the village?

Okay, rule number one

out here.

Always...

No.

Never go out in a blizzard.

We need to get to Boo.

( grunts, then gasps )

Boo?!

What about us?

( grunts )

Ever since that kid

came in

you've ignored

everything I've said

and now look where we are!

Oh, we were about

to break the record, Sulley.

We would have had it made!

None of that matters now.

None of it matter...

Wa-wait a second.

None of it matters?

( sighs )

MIKE:

Okay.

That's.... no. Good. Great.

So, now the truth

comes out, doesn't it?

Oh, would you

look at that?

We're out of

snow cones, uh...

Let me... just go outside

and make some more.

Sulley, what about everything

we ever worked for?

Does that matter?

Huh?

And what about Celia?

I am never... never

going to see her again.

Doesn't that matter?

( sighs )

What about me?

I'm your pal.

I'm... I'm your best friend.

Don't I matter?

( sighs )

I'm sorry, Mike.

I'm sorry we're stuck out here.

I didn't mean

for this to happen.

But Boo's in trouble.

I think there might

be a way to save her

if we can just

get down to that...

''We''?

Whoa, whoa, whoa. ''We''?

No.

There's no ''we'' this time, pal.

I-if-if you want

to go out there

and freeze to death

you be my guest...

because you're on your own.

( wind whistles )

Hey, I got more snow cones!

Ohh!

Ahh!

Ahh!

( yells )

( grunting and groaning )

( wind howling )

( distant child screaming )

( children screaming )

Oh, come on, now, George.

I know you can do this.

I picked out an easy door

for you-- in Nepal.

Nice, quiet Nepal.

You know, you're right.

Here, take this.

Go get 'em, Georgie!

Gangway! Look out!

Coming through!

Sorry, George.

Hey, you can't just...

( gasps )

( gagging )

( whistling )

Out of the way!

-Hey!

-Whoa!

Don't!

( gasps )

( whiopers )

Finally!

I never should have

trusted you with this.

Because of you, I had

to banish my top scarer!

With this machine,

we won't need scarers.

Besides, Sullivan got

what he deserved.

Sullivan was twice the scarer

you will ever be!

( low growl )

( panting )

( clanging )

( grunting )

( yells with effort )

( oechanical whirring )

( gasps )

Kitty!

( whirring and hissing )

( yelling )

( shrieking )

( roaring )

Kitty!

Sullivan?

( grunting )

Wh-whoa!

Kitty!

Sorry, Boo.

Stop him!

( growls )

Let's get you home.

( panting )

( blow lands )

Ooh!

WATERNOOSE:

Finish him off!

Oh! Ooh! Oh!

( clanging )

( thunk )

You don't know how long

I've wanted to do

that, Sullivan.

( grunts )

( chuckles )

( punches landing )

Hah!

Ooh!

( shrieks )

( panting )

Ooh!

Mike?!

Look, it's not that I

don't care about the kid.

Mike, you don't

understand.

Yes, I do. I was

just mad, that's all.

I needed some time to think.

But you shouldn't

have left me out there.

( thuop )

I'm being attacked!

No, I'm not attacking you.

I'm trying to be honest.

Just hear me out.

You and I are a team.

Nothing is more important

than our friendship.

I-I-I know, kid.

He's too sensitive.

( gagging )

( whining cry )

Come on, pal.

If you start crying,

I'm going to cry

and I'll never get through this.

I'm sorry

I wasn't there for you

but I am now.

Ow!

Sulley, I am baring

my soul here.

The least you could do

is pay attention!

( yells in pain )

( sighs in relief )

Hey, look at that--

it's Randall! It's...

Oh.

Come on!

WATERNOOSE:

Get up!

There can't be

any witnesses.

There won't be.

I'm glad you came back, Mike.

Somebody's gotta take care

of you, you big hair ball.

( Celia yelling )

( screaming )

Ow!

Schmoopsie-poo,

I really can't talk.

Come on!

Michael, if you

don't tell me

what's going on right

now, we are through!

You hear me? Through!

Here's the truth.

You know the kid that they're
