You mind telling me why you're

running all those machines?

I just... came down

for a late-night snack

and then I decided to sorta...

...test to make sure everything

in the kitchen was in working order.

At one o'clock in the morning?

Good work, Bastian.

Yes. Always good to do that sort

of thing during low-usage hours.

Very cost conscious of you.

Gee. Neat necklace.

Thanks.

Where did you get that?

Ahhh... a pawn shop.

A pawn shop?

Barney.

Come on. Let him be.

Don't stay up too late, Bastian, OK?

(Sighs with relief)

Sleepy sleep with Bastian?

No, you can't sleepy sleep

with Bastian.

Ohhhh.

Please.

OK, but keep it quiet.

Oh!

If that's possible.

Come on, Junior. Tippy-toes.

I'm not tired.

Shhh!

(Yawns) But I'm not tired.

Another great idea bites the dust!

Where am I now?

Everything hurts.

Ohh! Me come too, Bastian.

enough problems already.

Look out that window.

When the car leaves,

go to where I took you 'sleep sleep'

and wait there until I get back.

Kiss kiss?

Go away! Can't a man

chew his rocks in peace?

Well, you shouldn't be so nasty.

Nasty? Who's being nasty?

Junior always gets into trouble

when he is with you.

What?

Would you rather

he lay around the cave all day

helping you with those mud cakes?

And what's wrong

with my mud cakes?

Well, now that you mention it,

after 2,000 years of marriage

they still taste like hockey pucks!

Hockey pucks?!

(Roars)

Ow!

(Grunts)

Hmmmm!

(Groans)

(Kids laugh)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

I say this is my story.

I'm gonna get you for this.

But, chief, the necklace!

Chill!

We're supposed to be expelled,

remember?

Let's wait till the 3:00 bell so we can take

him outside without no-one noticing.

Nicole. Rachel!

Guys!

Hi. Want to go

to the mall after school?

My mom's driving.

Cool. We're in.

No way. I am like so broke.

So am I.

But that's why I carry plastique.

You'll find this at

the Principal's office, young lady.

But that's my mom's gold...

And if we don't get

to our home room,

we'll find ourselves

at the Principal's office.

Nicole. What have we there?

Nothing.

Hand it over.

I can't.

It doesn't belong to me.

That's all the more reason.

Let's see it.

I wish you would just...

Yes?

We were saying?

We wish...

I wish...

We... wish... what?

I wish... you would just

leave me alone,

leave all of us alone and stop

breathing your camel breath on us

and go back to your cage

where you belong.

Class...

I must leave you all now.

My cage needs tidying.

(Sprays)

(DOOR SHUTS)

No way.

Way.

(BELL RINGS)

(MYSTERIOUS, MAGICAL MUSIC)

Nicole!

Nicole, wait!

Excuse me. Sorry. Sorry.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Gotcha! (Sniggers)

Ow! Ow! Come on!

Hello, Mother.

Hello, dear.

Can I come to the mall with you guys?

I thought you were broke.

Well... I don't need any money.

Oh, how nice. Your mother

finally got you a charge card?

Which one?

All of them.

(Nasties snigger)

OK. Balthazar.

Lay it on me.

Lay what on you?

No games, Balthazar.

Let's see the gold.

I don't have it.

Frisk him.

Oh! Ugh!

(JINGLING SOUND)

(Keeps groaning)

Where did you hide it?

I didn't hide it.

(Sighs)

You wanna make things

harder on us? OK.

We're gonna make things

A lot harder for you.

We'll check the book,

find out where the necklace is

and when we get it you can

kiss your new family goodbye.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(Bastian groans)

(Nasties snigger)

(Makes foghorn sound)

Shhh.

You got it?

Yeah, I got it.

OK.

Stay here. Bark Troll.

Oh. Me come too.

This your order?

Ah, yeah.

Sign here.

Where do you want it?

I'll take care of him.

Him?

Ah, yeah. Um...

Haven't you read... you know,

'The Secret Life of Plants'?

Trees are people too.

Oh, yeah?

This one looks like he'd be

better off in a woodchipper.

Whoa!

Hey, Tom!

(Chuckles)

Oh!

Have a nice trip? (Laughs)

What are you looking at?

Let's go.

Oooh. Have they gone?

(Laughs)

You made it.

Some place you got here,

this human world.

How did you find me?

I let my branches do the walking.

Luckily there's only one Bucks

in the phone book

else I'd be walking all day.

Oooh!

Not that pile of rocks again.

Just what I need.

Now we go home?

Oh! Oh! Ah! Oh! Ow!

Get off the roots!

Stay here with Junior.

Shhh!

Me go home!

Junior, take it easy.

Shut up!

(Barky keeps grumbling)

(DOORBELL RINGS)

(Junior whinges)

(Faintly) Me go home!

Bastion Bucks lives here?

Yes.

Right.

Thank you.

Can you sign here?

Sure.

Thank you.

Have a nice day.

You too.

ENG YWOOK:
Let us out!

(Shrieks)

Oh, no!

There's no floor!

There's no bathroom here!

I've got to go!

Ohhhhhhh!

Bastion... there's a package

here for you.

And there seems to be something -

I don't know how to say this -

speaking inside.

Help us!

Oh, um...

(Gnomes wail)

...this must be... er...

the parrot... I sent for.

Um... by the way,

have you... seen Nicole?

Er... she called to say

she went to the mall.
