Ribbit Page #5

Synopsis: A fantastic journey sometimes begins with one tiny little hop. Ribbit is a frog with an identity crisis. Unlike frogs, he hates hopping and has a strong aversion to water. Feeling a misfit, he is full of questions about his life... and so together with his best friend, a flying squirrel, he embarks on a soul-searching journey in search of the truth and his rightful place in this world. Set amongst the breathtaking backdrop of the Amazon rainforest, they surge ahead in their quest for the answer to life's mysteries... encountering a zany variety of colourful characters, both friend and foe, along the way. Confusion reigns when Ribbit is accidently hypnotised. Is Ribbit a human prince trapped in a frog's body by an evil curse... or is he merely a confused colourful denizen of the jungle?

foot by all those other humans.

Tough life.

Are you jealous?

What? No!

Ah, Princess...

having a stroll, I see.

I just want to see how the

villagers are doing.

Ah, yes, the preparations.

Tomorrow is the big day,

isn't it?

You become our queen.

I thank you for leading our

people all this while.

I hope you will lend me

your wisdom as I lead.

You want wisdom.

Then perhaps it's not so safe for you

to be wandering around the village.

After all, we wouldn't want

anything to happen to you.

I thank you for your advice.

Hm.

Ahh.

What are you doing?

We have to rescue the frogs!

We have to follow that man.

Huh? What?

Ribbit, the frogs.

Uh... of course!

You're right, let's go!

One, two, three, four.

Ah... number six.

I'll take number six.

Ahh.

Just a little more poison.

Mm.

Yes... excellent.

Heh-heh.

Ah.

Philippe!

Take this to the

princess' chamber.

Be careful,

do not spill a drop.

I shall serve her

the drink myself later.

It is a special drink

for any ruler to be.

Yes, sire.

And soon, I will be king.

Wait! Where are you going?

To save the frogs, of course.

But you heard him.

He's gonna poison the princess.

We can't let that happen.

You can't just leave

these frogs here.

You're right,

we have to split up.

You release the frogs

and I'll help the princess.

Ribbit, can we really do this?

We've gotta try, Sandy.

We can't just let things happen,

because they're scary...

or because they're...

they're bigger than us.

You be careful, okay?

You, too.

Ribbit.

Hey! Hey, you guys,

don't worry. I'll get you out.

Ssh... be quiet.

Well, that's not a nice thing to say

to someone who's here to rescue you.

Don't make any noise.

Why? The human already left.

Maybe it's not the human

they're worried about.

Kai.

Your Highness.

All hail our new queen!

I present your majesty

with a magical royal elixir.

Long live the queen!

Oh, no!

Oh, yes.

What are you doing here?

See this rope?

I'm a prisoner here

and it's all your fault.

Going over that waterfall

knocked me out.

When I came to,

that human had tied me up.

And now you're going to pay.

Agh!

Now go!

Hah.

Help!

Yeah!

Now what?

Now we find Ribbit.

No!

Huh?

Ew.

Poison.

Hm.

Guards!

Stop! One move and she's gone.

Ribbit.

Ribbit!

Ribbit.

Unh.

Sandy, I drank the...

Where's the princess?

She's okay,

but she needs our help.

Come on, you get the princess

free, I'll take care of Kai.

Yee-ow!

Grab him!

Oh, Your Majesty,

Your Highness!

Take him away.

I can't believe it.

I was almost killed.

If it weren't for these brave,

little creatures.

Especially this one.

How can I ever repay you,

little one.

Ew!

But I... I guess... I guess.

Okay.

Wait! Wait! Uh, wait!

Can we try that again?

Ribbit.

It was all just a fantasy,

wasn't it?

It was, it was just the bat,

and his eyes...

and his voice and...

I've been such a fool.

Hah! I'm no prince.

I'm not even a good frog.

I've been such

an idiot, Sandy.

Ribbit, does it really matter?

Frog... prince? Who cares?

Look at where we've gone,

the things we've done.

No frog or prince even, can say they've

ever done half the things we've done.

I... I guess.

You saved the princess, Ribbit.

She would have drunk the poison

if it wasn't for you.

Only you could have saved her without

dying from the poison yourself.

Yeah, yeah!

I guess you're right.

I suppose we did travel

a long way.

And we did rescue the princess.

And I have done things

no frog has ever done before.

I stopped the evil,

bad guy, I got the girl.

Oh... I didn't.

Get the girl, I mean.

I wouldn't be too sure

about that.

Huh?

Come on,

let's get out of here.

So, where did Kai come from?

He was tied up

in the Witch Doctor's hut.

Being kept as some kind

of weird pet.

Huh?

Bye!

So, now what?

Now... we take it

one day at a time.

Whatever you say... Norman.

Under our special tree

Secretly I dream

You're a brave

And mighty king

And when you crown

Your true love

You'll be smiling

Back at me

Is this the night

Finally we'll look

Into each other's eyes

For the first time

That magical moment

When your lips kiss mine

You will finally

Know the truth

If the one you dream of

Wishes for you

You will finally know

The truth

That the one you dream of

Wished for you

For you
