I'm just gonna put this right here.

Uh...

What happened back there?

What? What do you mean?

Uh, you stabbed the raft?

For literally no reason!

It was not for no reason.

It was for personal reasons.

Anyways, there's a port

right there on the coast.

We'll just leave first thing in the

morning and deliver the package.

Just call it "the baby."

Why are you so afraid of babies?

Because this one single package could ruin

everything I've worked towards my entire life!

- Why do you wanna be boss again?

- Not this again.

No, really.

Why do you wanna be boss of Cornerstore?

I don't know, okay? I mean...

Why does anyone want to be boss?

It rules. That's why.

Yeah, but what would you do?

- I don't know. What would you do?

- I'm glad you asked!

Well, for one, I would employ a more

diverse variety of birds and animals.

Two, I would get rid of

the Cornerstore warehouse

because that building is a bummer.

And three, I would start

delivering babies again.

Okay, you were very prepared

for that question.

Man, I feel so close to you.

Like we're girlfriends already.

All right, I knew as I was saying it

that I should just keep my mouth shut.

Aw, I want to braid

your feathers immediately!

Look, uh...

Yeah?

While we're being real honest right now,

I'll tell you why I built my plane.

It's not to deliver packages

for Cornerstore.com.

I built my plane to find my parents.

But I thought you didn't know

where your parents lived.

When Jasper destroyed my

homing beacon, I lost all the pieces.

Except one.

And I thought this, plus some luck

might be enough to find my parents.

So, you sacrificed your plane

for this baby?

- Yeah.

- Why?

Oh, I don't know.

I guess if this baby finds her family,

I mean, it's worth it.

Right?

Fine. You can name her.

- Really?

- Yeah, go ahead.

Diamond Destiny.

Okay, I changed my mind.

You can't name her.

Too late! Her name is Diamond Destiny.

Yes, it is!

I thought it was gonna be,

like, an actual name.

It is a name. Diamond Destiny is her name!

Isn't that right, Diamond Destiny?

We're gonna find your parents,

and everything is gonna be just perfect.

You'll find your family.

You think?

For sure.

Good night.

Good night!

Huh!

What is it? I'm up.

Do you think she's hungry?

Yeah. I don't know.

Uh, maybe she just needs to be rocked.

Okay.

Oh, my gosh.

Her eyes could not be more open.

Okay, grab that end.

It's like we're a family.

We are not like a family.

We're just a guy and a girl

trying to put our baby to sleep.

Let's just put her to sleep.

Come on, close, close, close.

Okay, close. Close, close, close.

That's good, right? Is that closed enough?

No! Look, I can still see eyeball.

Can we manually close them? Here.

No! Don't do that! What are you doing?

I'm gonna... Wait!

Okay, give me the eye glue.

- What?

- You know, for gluing eyes shut.

No, we don't have any.

It's gonna stick.

What if she never goes to sleep?

All right, you know what? I got her.

You just go to bed.

You go to bed. It's fine.

No, I don't wanna go to bed

if you're gonna be up. I'll feel bad.

I know. But if I go to bed, then

I'm gonna feel guilty. And I just can't.

No, that's what I'm saying. Listen to me.

No, so that's why you go to bed,

and I'll take care of her.

All right. I'll go to bed.

I can't believe you went to bed!

What? You just said it was

okay for me to go bed!

Okay, you know what?

Can we just rock her in our arms?

No. We do not. No loving the baby.

You said "baby."

Fine. I don't care. I don't care.

You love it.

Goodbye, brah!

How you like me now? Huh!

"How you like me now"?

How you like me now?

How do you like me now!

Now there was a time

When you loved me so

I could do no wrong

And now you need to know

Dance break!

How you like me now? How you like me now?

And you're sure you saw this?

Yes, I'm sure I saw this.

All right. Let's keep this quiet.

Yes, sir.

Thank you for your loyalty, Pigeon Toady.

Or should I say boss.

Cool, cool, cool.

Whoa! Steam room in an elevator.

Mind blown!

Shut up! I'm planning.

Oh, that's cool.

All right. Now, listen.

First, we have to stop that delivery.

But we don't know where they're headed.

Indeed. We won't go to them.

We'll make them...

Come to us.

Yes!

Well, I'm off.

You're in a suit suddenly.

Let's go.

My towel blew away.

Junior.

Wake up. We gotta go.

I'm still asleep.

I know, we gotta go, we gotta go.

Just let me sleep a little longer.

Junior. Baby's awake.

Ship's leaving. Let's go!

You do it. You get the baby.

Junior, I'm tired, too!

You made it, you get it.

Hey!

Ooh!

Yes!

Diamond Destiny,

you come back here right now.

I'm not fooling around.

All right, let's go.

We got a boat to catch.

We got a boat to catch, oh!

Here we go. On it.

Home stretch!

We have to be absolutely silent.

One human sees a stork with

a baby and we'll get reported.

All right, last one. Let's pack it up.

What was that?

Sounds like a baby.

That's very suspicious.

- Why is she doing that?

- I don't know.

Diaper?

Check.

Food?

Check.

Maybe she needs a nap.

Rock-a-bye baby, on the treetop

Nope. What is it? What does she want?

It's coming from over there!

I don't know. She's reaching for you.

Maybe she just wants you.

No. That doesn't make sense.

Technically, she should be

perfectly happy.

What are we gonna do?

What are we gonna do?

I have no idea.

Oh, no!

Oh, no.

She's gonna blow! She's gonna blow!

What do I do with her?

Take her, take her. Just take her!

- Ah, look at that.

- Hmm.

Actually seems to be working pretty well.

Ha! She smells so nice!

Who's got the little sparkly eyes? You do.

You do.

Oh, no! The boat's leaving!

No, no, no! Come on!

Wolf pack. Form of wolf minivan!

Minivan!

Ow, ow, ow...

Give me a break!

- Click, click.

- Click.

My baby!

Ah! We got the Tiny Thing!

This is not a safe way

to transport the baby.

- We're parents now.

- Just go slower.

- You're right, you're right, you're right.

- Slower.

Okay, good.

Is that good, Tiny Thing?

Hmm? Tiny Thing?

We lost her again!

Quick! We can get to

the boat through here.

Ah!

Wait. Why are you running so weird?

What don't I know?

My old nemesis.

"Glass."

Birds can't see glass!

Give us Tiny Thing.

Just go, Tulip. It's too late for me.

You've got the baby.

You can deliver her yourself.

What? No, I'm not leaving you behind!

We can do this. Together!

Where's the Tiny Thing?

- All right. Tulip, you got this!

- Tiny Thing! Tiny Thing!

- Okay, left. Right. Straight.

- Where's the Tiny Thing?

Straight! Left! Right!

Oh, no! I'm panicking!

Uh, right again! Left, I mean. Left!

Right! Right, I mean.

Left! Left! Right! Right!

Left! Left! Left! Right!

Rolft! I mean, ralft!

Right! Left! I'm just shouting words!

This is not working!

Oh-oh! We did that together!

I ran into every piece of glass.

Some, more than once.

Oh, jeez.

Ah!

What are the chances of that?

I guess, pretty high in a glass factory.
