Storks Page #6

- Tiny Thing! Tiny Thing!

- Come on!

First, we're gonna take Tiny Thing

and raise her to be a strong,

independent woman.

And then, we're gonna eat you.

We made a great team.

My baby.

That's my baby!

It's Jasper!

My baby!

- No, no, no!

- My baby! My baby! My baby!

Let go!

Let go of us!

Wolf pack, form of...

Broken heart!

Cry! Cry!

Get away from us!

- Get away!

- Stay back!

- Go home!

- Come on!

Don't make me hit you!

- Hey, hey, hey! Let me explain!

- I don't wanna hear it!

When you orphaned me, you said "whoops!"

Whoops! You said "whoops!" Who does that?

Will you please let me explain?

Hey! She doesn't wanna hear

your explanation, guy!

Back off!

I fell in love with you.

Okay, fine.

Honestly, I am very curious.

Let's hear it.

Look, they tell you being

a stork isn't gonna be easy.

Always deliver.

I failed to do that.

Your beacon broke. The pieces scattered.

I spent my entire life

searching for the missing pieces

so that I could deliver my baby.

And yet, after all these years,

I'm still missing one piece.

- But, I have pledged...

- Oh, my gosh! Wait.

...to be the parent

I took from you, Tulip.

And I will lay down my life.

I have the missing piece!

Excuse me, what?

I have the missing piece.

My home!

I'm going home!

I'm gonna finally meet my real family.

Oh, my gosh!

This is crazy! Junior, can you believe it?

No, that's so... That's so great.

Yeah, yeah, you should go.

Oh, yeah, well, after we deliver the baby.

But, yeah!

No, no, no. I can take care of the baby.

You should go now.

No, no, no.

We have to finish the delivery.

I'm sorry to cut you off.

You know what's so funny is

just then when you said "real family",

it, like, weirdly hurt my feelings.

But I realized how stupid that is.

I mean, I'm a bird

and you're, like, a sloppy human

and that's not our baby.

It's just some baby.

Well, I mean, we're not, like, a "family",

but we are like a family.

Well, it's like we are

except instead we're more like employees

who are delivering a package,

and that's all.

Do you know what I mean?

And you should go to where you belong.

Now. Do you know what I mean?

No! Junior, we are a team, okay?

We're gonna deliver this baby,

then we're gonna meet my parents,

- then I'm gonna show them Stork Mountain.

- I was supposed to fire you.

Okay?

You were supposed to fire me?

Yeah.

Well, "liberate". "Free". Yes, fire.

And then I didn't,

and then this all happened.

Look, there's nothing waiting for you

back at Stork Mountain.

Who cares though?

It's time for you to go

and meet your real family!

That's exciting, right?

Look, I...

I just think this is

for the best, you know?

It's what you've always wanted.

Yeah, I wanna go meet my family.

So, yeah, I better go now, I guess.

It's gonna be fine.

I'll take good care of her.

Okay, okay. Fine.

Goodbye, little girl.

Have a good trip back home.

You take care...

And be safe.

I'm scared.

They're your family.

They're going to love you.

I'll be right here.

Oh, oh! Give me your camera.

I'd love to capture this family moment.

Okay, camera rolling and action.

Yup. Okay.

Ring the doorbell.

I don't hear a doorbell ringing.

You're right. Let's take our time.

I've only waited my whole life for this!

Tulip?

Hmm?

The storks!

Oh, boy!

- Here we go!

- Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh!

- Okay. Big smile!

- I'm a little nervous. Okay.

Everyone, calm down!

This is not to code.

- What?

- This all has to come down.

Hunter?

- You're fired!

- But, but, but...

"But, but, but..." You are so idiotic!

How were you not suspicious?

I thought it was

a gentrifying neighborhood.

Didn't expect to see you here, brah!

Oh, yes, I did. I set it up.

Seize the thing!

Wait, no! Not the baby!

Don't worry. She's gonna be fine.

She's with penguins.

They have whole documentaries

about how great they are at babysitting.

And she'll be an excellent swimmer.

And then when she's old enough,

we'll return her to the human world.

That's insane! You need to deliver her!

We can't let it get out that the new

boss accidentally made a baby!

Our stock would plummet,

everything we've built.

My entire company will fall apart!

Those parents can never find out.

Okay, we're ready to go.

Who's the baby now?

Good enough.

- "Cease and desist"?

- Why?

This is not up to code,

and quite frankly, it looks dangerous.

We can't tear it down.

'Cause then the storks won't

deliver my baby brother.

The policeman's right, Nate.

They don't deliver babies. Not anymore.

Then why did we do all this stuff?

Because we were having

such fun playing with you.

Oh, honey. We spent time together.

And that's what matters.

So is this like

a ticket thing or a warning thing?

It feels like a warning, right?

Yeah, we are warned.

We are properly warned.

Oh, buddy.

Come on.

What?

Oh, my gosh! Are you okay?

What happened? Where's the baby?

They tied me up and took her.

Why would you think this was her house?

It's surrounded by

a bunch of scary warehouses!

Gentrification!

How could they just take her?

She was your responsibility!

It wasn't my fault, okay?

I'm not blaming you.

I'm just worried about the baby!

Well, I'm also worried,

which is why I'm yelling!

We're yelling 'cause we're wasting time!

How can we get back to Cornerstore?

You're shopping? What are you doing?

Oh, I see.

You did that so we could hide in the box

and get back to Cornerstore real quick.

- That's right.

- Yeah.

Wait a minute. Junior, what is going on?

What the heck is this?

This is Storkcon.

Once a year, storks come

together for one thing.

Storkcon!

The biggest stork convention

on the planet Earth, where birds and...

- Uh, Junior?

- What?

What are you doing?

We have to save the baby.

I'm just a huge fan of Storkcon.

'Cause it's so cool.

There. Look, look, look!

They're headed towards the flight deck.

What? It calms me.

Presenting the world's first round box

Sphericus!

Circles can hold dreams!

How are we gonna get through this crowd?

Hello.

I'm full of dreams!

Hey, you guys aren't

supposed to be back here.

Pardon me, big guy.

I'm full of dreams!

Listen to me, Tulip.

Even if we get the baby,

we have no way to get out of here.

Storkcon is huge

for storks come from

all across the world...

Junior, stop talking about Storkcon!

All right, I'm sorry.

It's just really impressive. Here we go.

Put down that baby!

Whoo!

Growth analytics suggest

increased bandwidth

enabling us to silo

creative core components.

I got your text.

Sorry, but we could only find

one jet pack.

All right, give me the pack.

I'm taking her.

- What? No, I'm taking her.

- No way.

When you had her last, you lost her.

- After you left us.

- After you fired me!

'Cause you're bad at everything.

- I wish I'd never met you.

- Whoa! Wow,

well, you know what?

I wish I'd never met you.

The only good thing to come out of all

of this is this baby, and I am taking her.
