The Emperor's New Groove Page #3

Synopsis: In this animated comedy from the folks at Disney, the vain and cocky Emperor Kuzco is a very busy man. Besides maintaining his "groove", and firing his suspicious administrator, Yzma; he's also planning to build a new waterpark just for himself for his birthday. However, this means destroying one of the villages in his kingdom. Meanwhile, Yzma is hatching a plan to get revenge and usurp the throne. But, in a botched assassination courtesy of Yzma's right-hand man, Kronk, Kuzco is magically transformed into a llama. Now, Kuzco finds himself the property of Pacha, a lowly llama herder whose home is ground zero for the water park. Upon discovering the llama's true self, Pacha offers to help resolve the Emperor's problem and regain his throne, only if he promises to move his water park.

Kronk:
Hey!

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Stop! Pardon me. Excuse me.

Sorry about that.

Comin' through.

Hey, you with the cart!

Kronk:
Uh-oh

This is not good.

Uhh. Hope that doesn't

come back to haunt me.

Tipo:
Mom, Mom!

I think I'm still growing!

Measure me again!

Chicha:
Ha!

All right, Tipo.

Stand still

and let's see.

Mom, you and I

both know

that it's

impossible for him

to have grown in

the last 5 minutes.

Mmm! Mmm!

Isn't it?

[Gasps] Look how much

you've grown!

What? Tipo, get

out of the way.

It's my turn again.

Measure me.

Dad's home!

[Kids Laughing]

Hey, ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha!

Pacha:
Come here

Ha ha ha!

[All Three Laughing]

Dad! I ate

a bug today!

Oh! Was Mom

baking again?

Heh. Don't tell her

I said that.

Chicha:

I heard that.

Ok, everybody,

move aside

Lady with a baby

comin' through.

Dad, Dad, Dad!

Look at

how big I am!

We were all

measured today.

Oh.

I'm going through

a growth spurt.

I'm as big

as you were

when you were me.

Mm-hmm. Sure are.

That's not as impressive

as my loose tooth. See?

Ok, ok, you two.

Our deal was that

you could stay awake

until Daddy came home.

Now say good night.

Both:
Dad,

do we have to?

[Whimpering]

No, you two can stay up.

We're just gonna be sittin'

here tellin' each other

how much we love each other.

Right, honey?

[Coos]

- Ew!

- Blecch!

Both:
Good night.

[Both Laughing]

So what did

the emperor want?

Ahem.

You know what?

He couldn't see me.

Couldn't see you?

- Why not?

- I don't know.

Well, that's

just rude.

Well, he is

the emperor.

I'm sure he's busy.

No, no, no, no. No.

Emperor or no emperor,

it's called common courtesy.

Honey...

If that were me,

I'd march right back there

and demand to see him,

and you know I would.

Sweetie, sweetie,

think of the baby.

Pacha, I'm fine.

This baby's not coming

for a while,

but even if it was,

I'd give that guy

a piece of my mind.

That kind of behavior

just--just--

Uhh! [Snarls]

I gotta go

wash something.

Pacha?

You ok?

Hmm?

Oh, yeah. I'm just

a little tired from the trip.

Um...Im gonna go

put Misty away.

Uh, heh heh. Hi.

Excuse me.

2 seconds here.

Um, I'm the one

in the cart. Remember?

This story's about me,

not him.

ok. You got it?

All right.

We're gonna move ahead.

Sorry to slow you down.

Heh heh heh.

Huh?

Whoa.

Uhh. Oh.

Where'd you come from,

little guy?

No touchy.

Aah! Demon llama!

Demon llama? Where?

- Aah!

- Aah!

[Panting]

Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no!

Ooh hoo hoo!

Ow! Ow, my head.

Ok, demon llama.

Just take it easy.

I mean you no harm.

What are you

talking about--

Oh, wait. I know you.

You're that whiny

peasant.

[Gasps]

Emperor Kuzco?

Yeah. Who do you think

you were talkin' to?

Uh...how did--

Um...

you don't...

look like

the emperor.

What do you mean I don't

look like the emperor?

Uh...oh...

do this...

What is this,

some kind of little game

you country folk like to--

Aah! It can't be! Aah!

Aah! Aah!

My face! Aah! My beautiful,

beautiful face!

Ok, ok, ok.

I'm an ugly,

stinky llama!

Wait, ok,

Your Majesty.

- Llama face!

- Shh!

What happened?

I'm tryin' to

figure that out, ok?

[Laughing Hysterically]

Ohh-ho!

I can't remember.

I can't remember

anything.

Wait a minute.

I remember you.

I remember

telling you

that I was

building my pool

where

your house was,

and then you

got mad at me.

Ohh!

And you turned me

into a llama!

What? No, I did not.

Yes, and then

you kidnapped me.

Why would I

kidnap a llama?

I have no idea.

You're the criminal

mastermind, not me.

What?

Hmm. You're right.

That's giving you

way too much credit.

ok. I have to get back

to the palace.

Yzma's got

that "secret lab."

I'll just

snap my fingers

and order her

to change me back.

Hey, you.

No time to waste.

Let's go.

Hey, tiny, I want

to get out of this body.

Wouldn't you?

Now let's go.

Build your summerhouse

somewhere else.

You want to run that

by me again?

I can't let you go back

unless you change

your mind

and build your summer

home somewhere else.

Hmm. I got

a little secret for you.

Come here.

No, closer.

I don't make deals

with peasants!

Then I guess I can't

take you back.

Fine.

I don't need you.

I can find

my own way back.

I wouldn't recommend it.

It's a little dangerous

if you don't know the way.

Nice try, pal.

No, really.

I'm telling you,

Pacha:
There are

jaguars and snakes

and quicksand

[High Voice]

I'm not listening.

I'm not kidding.

Listen, you cannot

go in there.

La la la la

Oh. Heh heh.

Still not listening.

Aw, you...

Fine. Fine.

Go ahead!

If there's no Kuzco,

there's no Kuzcotopia.

Takes care

of my problem.

Hmm.

[Kuzco Laughs]

Scary jungle.

Right.

Ooh, a leaf.

Ooh, it might attack me.

Oh, it's a scary tree.

[High Voice]

I'm afraid. Ha ha.

Please. Never find my way?

I'm the emperor,

and as such,

I'm born with an innate

sense of direction.

Ok, where am I?

- [Buzzing]

- [Gasps] Wha--

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

[Crunch]

Uhh.

Fly:
Too late.

Ok, that was the freakiest

thing I've ever seen.

[Gasps]

[Animal Roars]

Aah!

Hmm.

What do you want?

[Chatters]

Oh, for me?

Why, I don't know

what to say.

[Laughs]

Ow!

Hit the road, bucky.

[Mutters]

[Raspberry]

Aah! Ow!

Huh?

Huh?

[Snoring]

Kuzco:
Huh?

Uh-oh.

[Chatters]

No, no.

No, no, no, no.

[Chatters]

No, no.

No, don't.

[Chatters]

[Loud Pop]

Ha! [Gasps]

[Jaguars Roaring]

Aah!

Kuzco:
No!

Aah!

[Jaguar Roars]

Kuzco:
Aah!

[Roaring]

[Meow]

You killer jaguars...

Whoa!

Pacha:
Aah-eee!

Aah!

[Pacha Screams Tarzan Yell]

Aah!

[Jaguars Growling]

Pacha:
Yee-aah!

Kuzco:
Aah!

Don't worry,

Your Highness. I gotcha.

You're safe now.

Maybe I'm just new to

this whole rescuing thing,

but this, to me,

might be considered

kind of a step backwards,

wouldn't you say?

No, no, no.

It's--It's ok.

This--This is

all right.

We can figure this out.

I hate you.

- No!

- Yaah!

Kuzco:
Aah! Ow!

[Both Scream]

[Bubbly Scream]

Kuzco:

Whoo hoo hoo!

Aah!

Ow!

Ow!

Uhh!

[Both Cough]

[Spits]

I don't know about you,

but I'm getting

all funned out.

Uh-oh.

Don't tell me.

We're about to go over

a huge waterfall.

- Yep.

- Sharp rocks at the bottom?

Most likely.

Bring it on.

Boo-yah!

Whoo!

[Splash]

[Gasps]

[Gasps]

[Inhales]

[Sighs]

Your Highness.

Your Highness,

can you hear me?

Oh, boy.

Come on, breathe.

Breathe!

Ohh. Why me?

Ooh!

All right.

[Inhales]

- Ohh!

- Aah!

[Both Spit]

- Ohh!

- Ohh!

[Gargles]

Pacha:

For the last time,

it was not a kiss.

Well, whatever

you call it...

[Spits]

it was disgusting.

And if

you would've done

what I ordered you to do

in the first place,

we all could've

been spared

your little

kiss of life.

Pacha:
Aw!

But now that

you're here,

you will take me

back to the palace.

I'll have Yzma

change me back,

and then I'll start

construction

on Kuzcotopia.

Oh, yeah.

Ok, now, look,

I think we got off

on the wrong foot here.
