THE ADVENTURES OF ELMO IN GROUCHLAND (1999) Page #4

- I love it more.

- He loves it more

You say you love your new Ferrari.

Mine! I love it more.

He loves it more

Look at me I'm on safari

Things I want my only quarry

I love what is yours

Far more than you.

Doodly-doodly-doodly-do.

And if love means never having

to say you're sorry.

Well, I never do.

The lights!

Somebody turn off the lights!

I see it, take it Then I make it mine

I stamp a valentine A sign of affection.

Four little letters make a word so fine

I ache to make it

I see it, take it Then I make it mine

I give a stamp that says

good-bye to neglection

I got an offer that you can't decline.

When umbrellas disappear

They're not lost,

they're all here

With the keys you cannot find.

Pens and mittens left behind

Got 'em locked up in a box

with a million missing socks.

An army guy, a glove, here's a doll.

Oh, how I love, whoa!

To make it mine

Careful. Yeah,

don't spill the boss' drink.

Okay, keep it balanced now.

- Here's your drink, boss.

- Thank you.

So, did you think of a plan

to stop that Elmo pest yet?

Not yet, boss. I was too busy

listening to you sing.

You got a lovely singing voice.

Why, thank you.

I always fancied myself a singer.

I almost performed in the bus and truck

tour of West Side Story.

They said I wasn't right for

Maria. What do they know?

- I feel pretty.

- Oh, very pretty.

You look pretty. You should take

a weedwacker to those eyebrows.

- What did I say?

- Anyway, I digress.

Right now, I need you to

take care of my archenemy Elmo.

Elmo...

Elmo.

Maybe...

...you should arrange

a little introduction for him...

...to the Queen of Trash.

Huh? Queen of Trash?

But nobody ever escapes her dump.

- Stop the movie! Ernie!

- What's the matter now, Bert?

Oh, this is not good.

Huxley is being mean to Elmo.

It's just not fair.

Why would anybody be so mean

to our little Elmo?

Well, gee, Bert, maybe Huxley

just hasn't learned how to share yet.

Well... Well, Ernie,

do you think he ever will?

Maybe, Bert. I sure hope

that he does. Don't you?

Now come on, Bert, let's go

find out what happens to Elmo.

Okay. Good, great.

Uh, Ernie? Problem.

This way, Bert.

Oh, boy.

Elmo didn't know it'd take this

long to get his Blanket back.

Excuse Elmo!

Excuse Elmo.

Sorry, Mac, this whole area

is closed for construction.

Yeah. Bring it in, boys.

- Slow, slow, slow.

- What's going on?

Slow, slow, slow, slow, slow...

Stop.

- Workmen?

- Nice work, Joey.

- Thank you.

- What?

See, we're putting in a new Tarbucks.

Cause there just ain't enough of

those places around

when you want a nice latte.

But Elmo has to go that way

to get to Huxley's house.

Hey, look. You're making me

fall behind in my work here.

But you look like a good kid,

so I'll tell you which way to go.

- Follow me.

- Okay.

In order to get to Huxley's,

you gotta go down the path...

...through the dump, over there.

Really? Well, thank you very much

for your help. You're very nice.

Nice? You think I'm nice?

Yeah. Very nice. Thank you.

You're welcome.

He hugged me.

- You're lucky you're married...

- Ice cream. Anchovy swirl.

- Right here. Ice cream.

- Yeah. I'll take one.

- Okay.

- Hey, where's my topping?

Oh, right.

- That's disgusting.

- And delicious!

No problem. Have a rotten day.

Ice cream! Anchovy swirl.

Ice cream.

Oh, ice cream. Anchovy swirl?

How I long for a lick.

Oh, Oscar, get over it.

- We've got to think about Elmo.

- Cookie.

- This is hopeless.

- Maybe this'll cheer you up.

- A, B, D, E, F, G.

- Let me out of here!

It's torture! Let us out! Please!

That's it! That's it!

I can't take it anymore!

I demand justice!

I want a lawyer! Call the media!

- Start a defense fund!

- Calm down! Calm down, Telly!

Let me get you some water.

Hey, can we get some water in here?

- Thanks.

- I didn't get any.

Thank you.

This shortcut is very long.

Oh, boy. Very smoky.

Halt! You are trespassing

on soiled ground!

- Yeah.

- Wait, wait, wait.

Elmo has to get to Huxley's house.

Oh, no way, bucko.

You're going to see our queen.

- Queen?

- Yeah, and this is her kingdom.

- Ahh. Kingdom.

- Kingdom?

- Kingdom.

- This looks like junk.

He said the "J" word!

You'll find out the difference

between what's junk

and what's beautiful.

What's happening?

What's going on?

Who is that?

Listen up

cause this is all I have to say

This could be the thing

to get you on your way

Just imagine what is old is new again

Maybe then you'll understand

I tell you take a look around.

And tell me that you don't see

Just a worthless pile

of garbage and debris

I see a kingdom

- Shining bright.

- Wow.

I can see the colors

coming through, yeah

You'll find the beauty if you

look at something right.

It's all about your point of view.

And life is

All about your point of view.

- Yeah! You go, girl!

- You go, baby!

Everywhere you look a story can be told

And the tales they tell

are worth their weight in gold

- Hey, that's very inappropriate.

- Sorry.

Settle down.

Rotting castaways and

broken bits of glass, I dare you.

Take a look around and tell me

that you don't see.

Watch this. This is good.

Just a worthless pile of

rotting and debris.

Cause I see a kingdom shining bright

And if you try then

you can see it too, yeah.

You'll see the beauty

if you look at something right

It's all about your point of view.

And life is all about

your point of view.

Oh, it's our turn, come on.

- Yeah.

- Okay, let's go.

Yeah

I see a kingdom.

Shining bright

I can see the colors coming through.

Oh, you'll find the beauty

If you look at something right.

It's all about your point of view.

And life is all about

your point of view.

Your point of view

Where do you think you're going?

Stay right here.

So who is this who trashed my dump?

This is him. Your Majesty.

- He's a trespasser.

- Uh, yeah.

No, no. Elmo's not a trespasser,

Miss Queen.

Silence, trespasser.

He says he's on his way to Huxley's.

- Huxley's, eh?

- And maybe,

maybe he's a Huxley spy.

Yeah. You know what?

I thought about that...

Oh, Elmo's not a spy.

Elmo just wants to get

his Blanket back from Huxley.

Cause it's mine.

Well, you certainly sound like Huxley.

No, Elmo doesn't.

Elmo's not like Huxley.

No, no! It's Elmo's Blanket!

It's mine, mine!

No!

He says he's not like Huxley.

Make him prove it, Your Highness.

- Oh, yeah.

- Yeah, prove it!

Well, I think It's time for

the ultimate challenge.

Oh, goody, goody!

- What's the ultimate challenge?

- You have to give me something.

You see, Huxley could never

give anyone anything.

- That's true.

- Now, if you're able to give...
