Zathura: A Space Adventure Page #5

I need you guys to hide in here.

I'll keep in touch with these.

They won't work.

Danny broke them.

He pulled off the antenna.

They're completely destroyed.

Testing.

It works.

Listen, keep the volume low.

Only use that if you need me.

Wa... wait, where are you going?

I'm gonna go find the game.

He has gorgeous eyes.

What?

He obviously feels

very protective over me.

I just...

I just feel so safe around him.

Zorgons.

Oh, my God.

The place is crawling with them.

They're all over the basement.

Wait, I think in the corner

I see the game.

Yeah, the box is right there.

Hang on, I'm... I'm gonna get closer.

Did he get the game?

- Hello?

- What's going on?

Are you there? Hello?

- What's happening?

- Hello?

Is he dead?

The game was right there.

It was right across from the furnace.

I couldn't get it.

There's too many of them down there.

They're all over the basement.

Are there any upstairs?

Not yet. But as soon as

they're done down there...

It's okay. You tried your hardest.

- We believe in you.

- Will you please?

Okay.

- The dumbwaiter.

- What?

The dumbwaiter is across

from the furnace.

It's a little elevator.

You could sneak right in it...

...we'll lower you down...

...you could grab the game...

...and we'll pull you right back up.

So easy.

Right, Walter?

Yeah, but he's too big.

Yeah.

It was a good plan, though.

It was a great plan.

Yeah, it was.

It was.

Too bad he wouldn't fit.

I wouldn't even fit.

I sure wish we knew someone

that was small enough.

Do we really need the game?

How you doing in there?

Okay.

Listen to me.

It's gonna be real easy, okay?

Just gonna lower you down there,

grab the game, and we'll pull you up.

Yeah.

Nothing's gonna happen

to you, okay?

- Yeah.

- Because I'm your brother.

And that's what

being a brother means.

Means I'll never let

anything happen to you.

- Okay?

- Yeah.

Okay. This is just gonna

take a few seconds, okay?

- Hey, Walter?

- Yeah?

I'm sorry I cheated.

I know.

- You ready to do this?

- I'm ready.

He's right there.

Guys, why did you stop?

Guys, come on.

I'm not at the bottom yet.

Help me. Come on.

That's it. Pull, pull.

Come on, come on.

Go. Go.

They're back.

They're coming up the stairs.

Get out of here. Go on.

Go, go, go.

Oh, no.

Guys.

It was just the box.

Wait. I see the game.

It's on the Zorgon ship.

But I think I can get it.

Danny, do not get on that ship.

Just stay put.

We'll come and get you.

Danny.

Danny. Danny, listen to me.

The Zorgons are up here.

Just stay put.

The pulley broke... we'll figure out...

We got the rope... So just stay put.

Danny. Danny, are you there?

Danny, the Zorgons are up here.

If you can hear me, listen.

We're not pulling you up right now.

Stay put.

We just saw one. Hold tight.

It's just a goat. It's just a goat.

It's just a...

It's not a goat. It's not a goat.

It's not a goat.

It's not a goat. It's not a goat.

It's not a goat.

It's not a goat.

Guys, pull me up.

They got goats with four eyes.

Guys, quick! I have the game!

Ew!

Come on!

Walter!

Told you I wouldn't let anything

happen to you.

Come on.

Emergency.

Alien life form.

Must destroy.

He still wants to kill me!

Use the card! Quick!

Reprogram!

Alien life form.

Must destroy.

Alien life form.

Must destroy.

Guess that's what the reprogram card's for.

I like that card.

It's a good card.

Where's Lisa?

Lisa...

...is upstairs.

What fell?

Little excessive, but I like it.

Come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

Okay, spin it, buddy.

Almost there.

I got it.

"Flunk space academy. Go back 1 space."

I'm not even gonna comment on that.

My turn.

"Hit time warp. Go back 3 spaces. Repeat last turn."

I get another wish.

Thanks for helping us out.

I wish the astronaut had his brother back.

You wished for two of me?

No. I...

I wished the astronaut guy

had his brother back.

- Danny.

- Who are you?

It's me.

It's Walter. I'm your brother.

- What?

- Wha...?

No, you're not.

He is.

Yes.

I'm older, but I'm him.

- I came back for you.

- What's going on here?

That was awesome.

Thank you.

I...

- I didn't...

- You did a good job.

You did better than I did.

Thanks.

Now, make sure he gets home safe, okay?

Okay.

- He was me!

- Yeah...

Oh, my God! And I wanted to--

Ten. You need 10 to win.

Need a 10. Need a 10.

One. God, I suck!

Would you like to swing on a star?

Move ahead 9 spaces.

Danny, you won.

- I won?

- He won?

You won, Danny! You beat the game!

You won the game!

We can go home!

I reached Zathura!

"Game over. Thank you for playing."

That's it?

Now what?

Think we're home.

Walter!

Lisa!

It's a black hole!

Zathura is a black hole!

Danny!

No...!

Boo-yah! Two-run shot!

Are you kidding me?

A 's up 5-4. Keith Foulke

leads the bigs in home runs

given up by a reliever with six!

Bottom nine. Red Sox down, 5-4.

Octavio Dotel in for the save.

He ain't really saving a whole lot.

He walks "Big Papi" Ortiz to tie up the inning.

Kevin Millar up next.

After an Ortiz walk, ninth inning...

Walter?

- Don't push that button.

- Let's get back to the here and now.

There's no way it's gonna

happen again, is it?

No way.

No, it doesn't happen again.

Millar pops out to left field.

Richard's back!

- I did it!

- You won the game!

- I won the game!

- We're home!

- I beat Zathura!

- We're home!

We're home!

I distinctly remember asking you guys

not to kill each other.

Dad, it was so awesome!

There was this game...

- ...and it sent us to outer space.

- And there was a black hole.

We almost had to stay forever.

- I stole the game from the Zorgons!

- And I saw myself older!

Sounds like a lot of fun.

It's almost 3:00, and Mom's gonna be here any minute.

Grab all games and books,

whatever you wanna take to her house.

Come on, get ready to go.

Good throw. Right to the chest.

Catch this one.

- Caught it!

- Nice.

All right, ready? Here we go.

Brett Favre takes the snap.

He's looking. It's a great pass.

- Touchdown!

- Touchdown!

- Just a second, Mom!

- Hey, Mom!

What happened to the football

signed by Brett Favre?

- It's gone.

- What happened to it?

It never happened.

Oh, right.

We never speak of this. Okay?

- Never happened.

- Never happened.

Still think I have gorgeous eyes?

- Walter.

- What?
