Wear them as a symbol of honor... and justice.

I will make you proud, Mama.

You already have, my Puss In Boots.

[Puss] How strange it was to give a cat boots...

...but, whoa... I looked good!

And as the light of my path grew brighter...

...Humpty's road grew ever darker.

[footsteps approach]

Gracias, Comandante.

Be careful of the company you keep.

[spits]

I know! I know, I never should've tried something without you.

You're not stealing lollipops anymore, Humpty.

This is getting serious.

You're right! We have to be smarter about this.

Here, look. We need to think bigger.

I've been casing the silversmith and it's perfect.

You and me, in and out, 50 seconds tops.

Will you put that away! This is our home.

These people have done nothing to us.

Our home? OK, yeah, I get it now.

You get some fancy boots and now you're too good for me?

That is not true.

We weren't born here. We're orphans!

All we got is each other, you understand?

We are better than this.

But we're partners.

We are brothers.

But I am not stealing anymore.

[Puss] But Humpty would not give up so easily.

[yowls] [Humpty] I'm in trouble, Puss!

It's Boy Blue and his gang. I owe them some money.

They're coming for me. Just get me over this wall.

I gotta go. Help me up the wall. Get me up the wall. Hurry! Hurry!

[distant whistle blowing]

OK, I've got everything. We did it. Come on, let's go!

How could you do this to me?!

I did you a favor! We can finally get out of here!

This is the money of the people! This is all they have!

[Puss yowls] [groans]

[gasps] You disgrace those boots!

Comandante, please, I can explain!

Arrest them!

Hiyah! [whinnies]

[Humpty] Hurry up! Get to the bridge!

You tricked me! I had to! You left me no choice!

[horse whinnies]

[men shouting]

[gasps] Mama...

Pequeño.

Oh! Watch out!

Oh! Oof!

Oh, no. [Humpty] Puss. I can't get up.

Puss! Help me. I can't get up!

Freeze!

Puss, save me!

Save yourself.

[guard] We got you.

[Puss] I lost everything I cared about that day.

My brother.

My honor.

My home.

All I thought about was the disappointment in my mama's eyes.

And I have been running ever since.

The egg betrayed me.

His lies cost me everything. [snoring]

Hey! [snorts] I'm awake!

[Humpty] You think I don't want to fix the past?

I can't get down.

[sighs]

[grunts]

Listen. A day... A day doesn't go by when I don't think about what I lost.

I lost my best friend.

My only friend. And I get it now.

I got greedy and desperate and I let you down.

I let myself down.

All I'm asking for, Puss, is a second chance.

Give me that second chance and I'll help you pay back San Ricardo.

[sighs] Please, Puss.

Let me show you what our friendship meant to me.

[sighs]

I will do it. Oh, that's great.

I will do this for my mother and for San Ricardo... not for you.

We are not partners and we are not friends.

OK. I promise this time, I will not let you down.

Yes! [laughs]

I think we got our Bean Club back.

[grunts]

[squealing]

Humpty's plan better work.

Listen, you just need to worry about your part.

Don't screw it up.

What? Again with the mask?

I don't need style advice from Mr. Dusty Boots.

Huh?!

Come on, Puss. Now!

[both grunting]

Our biological clocks are tickin', darlin'.

You gotta look at the big picture.

What's your problem? Huh?

Listen. I put a lot of work into my body. I look good, and I am not just gonna throw that away. [gasps]

[whispers] Hey, hey, hey. What?

[Jill] We're gonna start small. Look.

[Jill] Let's just pretend you have a baby.

Excellent. [chuckles]

[Jill] I don't have time to be at home with no diapers and baby socks.

You don't have to, Jill. I'll be the stay-at-home dad.

We got ten hungry piggies, there in the back.

You can practice on them. Just pull over, feed them.

[Jack] Little Hamhock's my favorite. You've got to hurry up.

Shh! [Jack] He's a cute little bugger.

Why are you not using your claws?

Would you please just shut up! I'm on it!

Just use your claws! Be quiet.

Your claws! I don't have any claws, all right?!

[snorting] [Jill] Was that Hamhock?

[Kitty gasps] [snorting]

Shh. Shh. Shh.

There, there. Sleepy, sleepy, big, fat piggy.

[squeals happily]

[Jill] Remember when we had to pretend we had that monkey one time...?

You babysit. [groans]

Soft paws. [Jack] When did we have a monkey?

[Jill continues indistinctly] [sighs]

Well? [Jill] ...what happened last time...

You sat on it, Jack. Hello, beans of legend.

Let's go. [squealing loudly]

[groans]

[metallic clicking]

Well, well, well. Look what we have here, Jill.

You messed with our baby.

[growling]

And you took my beans. [cackles]

Sausage bomb! [squealing]

[yowling] [Jack] Whoa!

[Jill] You're gonna pay for this! Soul-sucking cats!

[muffled shouting]

Signal the egg!

Yes! [whip cracks]

OK. Ready.

Set. Go!

Ow!

[Jill cackling]

[groans]

[squealing]

[grunts]

[Jill snarling] Oh, my God!

[snarling] [gasps]

Whoa!

[groans]

[grunting]

[sighs] Ah!

[Jill chuckles]

All right, cat. Give me them beans.

[yells, whimpers]

Is it true a cat always lands on its feet?

No! That is just a rumor spread by dogs!

Well, let's find out.

Hiyah!

[Jill shrieks] Hiyah!

See? I told you I wouldn't let you down!

[gun blast] You think this is over? Ha!

[gasps]

[whinnies] Hey, that was close!

[cackles]

Hiyah!

Now!

[Humpty screams]

We just got to make it to that bridge! Hang on!

Humpty! There is no bridge! Trust me.

[squealing]

[yelling] [squealing]

[both] Humpty!

[screaming]

[both gasp]

We're going to die! [whinnies]

[shouts echoing]

I hate cats. This is war!

[cheering, laughter echoing]

[laughter]

Giant's castle...

...here we come.

[Puss sighs] I must hand it to the egg.

This was a team effort. Humpty still has his claws...

I mean, flaws. That was what I meant, not claws.

He's not a cat. [chuckles nervously]

Not to say there's anything wrong... I don't want to talk about it.

Got it.

[muttering] OK, we should be close!

Keep your eyes out for any strange cloud activity!

I am called Kitty Softpaws because I'll steal you blind and you'll never even know I was there.

[gasps]

[groans]

Kitty?

You are not as good as they say.

You're better.

I will respect your privacy.

[Kitty sighs] OK. I'll tell you.

I was just a stray...

...but I had beautiful claws.

One day, a really nice couple took me in.

Gave me milk every morning.

Loved me.

Maybe I scratched their curtains or played too rough with the hamster.

I don't know why they did it.

But they took my claws.

Cat people are crazy. [chuckles]

Stop the coach! I think this is it!

[shrieks] Ooh! Whoo!

[muttering]

[panting]

Can you believe this, Puss?

After all these years!

Here. I want you to plant them.

That... is a strange cloud.

[gasps]

[Humpty] Whoa! OK! This is it! It's happening, hurry!

This way!

Good, good. Come on, come on, come on.

Twenty-three divided by cloud depth.

Hole! Right here.

Now place the beans.
