Open Season
Now, that's a roar, Boog.
Now get in. We're gonna be late.
No denying. The girl's got growl.
But can she get down like this?
Can you get down like this?
Bring it here. Bring it.
Then bring it right back, huh?
Look at that. Look at that.
Here it comes.
Hey, Gordy.
Morning, Beth.
Open Season.
Welcome to Timberline's
Wilderness Extravaganza.
I'm Ranger Beth.
Please, put your hands together
for Boog.
Behold, the mighty grizzly.
You can say I'm in love
You could say I'm insane
But no one understands me
Like my darling Lorraine
Looks like you're going
from one grill to another.
We rocked that house,
didn't we, Boog?
They were eating out of our hands.
Well, my hands, your paws.
Eating out of your paw.
That's good.
That's going in the show.
Shaw.
That guy really chaps my khakis.
You wait here, Boog.
- Cuff him, Gordy.
- Oh, the Girl Scouts are here.
He's at it again.
Shaw, hunting season doesn't start
for three days.
What are you doing
with that buck on your hood?
What? It ain't my fault.
He ran right in front of my truck.
Where, on the interstate?
Sort of.
Where is that girl?
That's nasty.
What? What the--?
I saw a bright light and--
I saw two bright lights and...
- Am I dead?
- Not yet.
But seeing how
that is Shaw's truck--
- What's a Shaw?
- Only the nastiest hunter in town.
A hunter? Did he get you too?
You don't see me tied up,
do you, baby?
- This is my ride.
- Your ride?
Yeah, this is my town, okay?
These are my people.
This is where I reside.
Nobody's hunting this bear.
Really? Well, then untie me.
Please? Look, no one's looking.
- Ain't gonna be able to do it.
- What am I gonna do?
I don't wanna be mounted on a wall.
- Calm down. Ain't gonna happen.
- It's not?
- Not with that rack.
- I don't have a problem with--
My... It's...
I'm a unihorn. Don't look at me.
Don't look at me.
I'm hideous. I'm a monster.
- Tree-hugger.
- Knuckle dragger.
- Tree-hugger.
- Knuckle dragger.
Veggieburger.
All right, all right.
That's enough, you two.
Listen, Girl Scout,
they're dumb animals.
I'm just respecting the natural order:
man on top, animals on the bottom.
But your bear--
Now, now, your bear is special.
He belongs somewhere
in the middle.
Between two slices of rye,
smothered in gravy.
You're a sick, sick,
twisted puppy, Shaw.
Put me down for a box of Thin Mints,
will you, sweetie?
Six-toed gun monkey.
Boog, come on, let's get out of here.
Come on, I'm begging you.
Please, please. Just untie me.
Come on. Please, please, please?
Hey, go on now. Scamper on
back to the woods, little buddy.
Little one-horned freak.
Buddy? He called me "buddy."
My buck.
My truck. Why, you little--
Shaw, no shooting in town.
But, Gordy, that bear leaned over
and untied my buck.
- Didn't you see that?
- All I see is a busted headlight.
Shaw, you've been living
in the woods too long.
They can't tell me what I seen,
because only I know what I seen.
Wheel of Fortune!
Big money got to come. Come on.
- Okay, buddy, time for bed.
- Five hundred--
- There's no R--
- Boog.
Mr. Dinkleman's waiting.
Good night, big guy.
Oh, did I forget something?
No, no, no. No more treats for you.
No, stop it.
Not the face.
Oh, no, not the eyebrows too.
No, it's not gonna work this time.
Stop it. I'm serious, Boog.
It's cute, but no-- All right.
If you go out in the woods today
You're sure of a big surprise
If you go out in the woods today
You'd better go in disguise
For every bear
That ever there was
Will gather there together because
Today's the day
The teddy bears have their picnic
Good night, Boog.
Who's there?
I'm warning you. I got ten claws
and I ain't afraid to use them.
- Hey, buddy. It's me, Elliot.
- What are you doing here?
You helped me,
I'm returning the favor.
I'm busting you out of here.
Let's go. Let's do this.
Come on. Let's book it before
the warden makes her rounds.
No, cornflake.
You've got it all twisted.
- This here is my home.
- Sweet.
Now haul your little butt
back out that window.
- What's this?
- Get off of that.
So soft. What is that?
What are you doing in there?
This place is big enough for two.
- What?
- Wow, look at that.
Does this look natural?
- Give me that.
- Oh, who's this little guy?
- Dinkleman.
- Dinkleman?
Is Dinkleman your doll?
I don't care about that old thing.
Oh, I get it. You're like a pet.
- I ain't nobody's pet.
- Right.
I do what I want, when I want,
and I come and go as I please.
Well, then let's go.
Outside?
when I got all I need in...
Whoa, what's that?
I call them Woo Hoos, like:
You want one?
I know where there's a bunch of them,
but you gotta go...
...outside.
Inside. Outside.
- Inside. Outside.
- Stop it.
- Stupid nose.
- Inside. Outsi--
Okay, I got that Woo Hoo right out of
one of those container doohickeys.
You got that out the garbage?
I had that in my mouth
and everything.
Dude, you're freaking me out
with that nose thing.
- Whoa.
- What is it?
- It's a whole Woo Hoo village.
- Sweet.
It's locked. Maybe we should
come back tomorrow.
Hey.
Elliot, look what you... You did.
You gonna get us in some trouble.
The Woo Hoo bar.
She's my lady. Smooth and creamy.
So bad, I shouldn't. Yet I will.
What is that?
Whoa, let me try.
Boog. Boog?
- Hello, idiot.
- It's "Elliot."
I come in peace.
I'm foraging.
Pepperoni!
- All right. Yeah, there it is. Let's go.
- Boog, party's over, let's go.
- All right, yeah, there it is.
- Freeze.
Behold, the mighty grizzly.
Good night.
If you go out in the woods today
There's gonna be some fries
Yeah, and the giraffes...
...they taste almost exactly
like the elephants.
That's messed up.
Hey, Gordy.
Back up quick, before she sees me.
You're in big trouble, mister.
You know what sugar does
to you, Boog.
Straight to bed, now!
I'm so sorry. It's my fault.
It won't happen again.
- What if he had hurt someone?
- Gordy, please.
- We're talking about Boog here.
- Hey, what are you looking at?
I told you not to wait up.
- I'll take him back to the woods.
- It's time to put him where he belongs.
No, no, he's not ready to go back yet.
I mean, it's not my fault.
I tried to teach him the basics.
I took him fishing,
but he didn't wanna get wet.
Gordy, please--
Boog is sorry.
- Beth, you're not his mother.
- I'm not mothering him.
Excuse me. Go to bed, Boog!
One more summer.
That's all I'm asking,
one summer.
Great, see? I can be reasonable.
Thanks.
You know something?
The longer you wait, the harder
it's gonna be for him to adapt.
Oh, I'm sure he'll...
And the harder it's gonna be
for you to let him go.
Good night, Beth.
What am I gonna do with you?
This isn't decaf. You know
what caffeine does to me, Bob.
I'd be talking up a storm,
chatting your ear off...
...a mile a minute
for the whole ride.
