It's got everything ` ice, rocks, ice, snow, ice. It's got a lot of ice. Plenty of modern amenities. And the best part ` everyone's happy. That's because our world is built on a foundation of stones. Not those. These. See, we have these laws that are written in stone ` literally, written in stone ` interpreted and enforced by the Stonekeeper. - The stones are here to protect us and keep us safe. - They pretty much tell us everything that we need to know. Important stuff, like how the world was created when we all fell from the butt of the great sky yak. And how our world is an island that floats on a sea of endless clouds resting on the backs of the great mountain mammoths. And how we have to feed ice to the mammoths so they don't overheat. Cos if they did, they would die, and we would all fall into the great nothing. - There's nothing down here! - But my favourite stone of all is the one that says the gong must be rung... - (GONG RINGS) - ...to wake the great glowing snail so it can crawl across the sky and bring light to the village. I love that one. It might be the most important job of all. And, humble brag, that job belongs to my dad. - (LAUGHS) - (CREATURES SQUEAK) - He does it with passion, commitment, and the help of his able-bodied assistant. - Up and at 'em, Migo! Time to ring the gong. - Me! Yes! I guess you could say I'm learning the ropes. And the wheel. And the crank. Because if my dad didn't ring the gong, we'd all be in the dark. - Launch! (SCREAMS) - It isn't easy. It requires skill, rock-solid nerves, and a good, strong head on your shoulders. - (GONG RINGS) - (GRUNTS) - Because there's literally no other way to ring a gong. - Oh, yeah. - It gives my dad a great sense of purpose. Like I said, it's an important job, a job that'll one day be mine. - (UPBEAT MUSIC) - Whoo-hoo! Good one, Dad! And I can't wait for the day that it's me who gets to wake the village. # Look at everybody there below. # All the yetis that I love and know, # and they're waking up to see this awesome morning. # They've all got a smile on their face. # Another reason I love this place, # cos it's always full of life # and never boring. - (GRUNTS, GROANS) - # Look all around us. # It's all rock and ice and snow. # Frigid and freezing. # Yeah, it's pretty great, I know. # And hey, hey It's another day, # like every other. # And I don't wanna change a thing. # Not one little thing, I mean, # because I do what the stones say, # and I'm doing OK. # What could be better than this? # It is what it is. # It is perfection. - (ALL CHEER) # Look at everybody do their part, # and they do it with a happy heart, # and it gives them all a sense of greater purpose. - Here you go! - # Well, that's the way that I wanna be. # I wanna make 'em all proud of me. # Just be a steady yeti at their service. - Do you seriously believe mammoths are holding us up? - CHILDREN: Mm-hm. - What's holding up the mammoths? - Uh, hello. It's just mammoths all the way down. - CHILDREN: Oh! - Don't listen to them. They're questioning the stones, and we don't do that, OK? # If there's a question causing you to go astray, # just stuff it down inside until it goes away. - Got it? - Where's Migo? Migo, you will never be the gong ringer. - Wait, what? If you don't practise. - He's giving you your own helmet! Oh, I blew the surprise! Sorry, Dad. - (GROANS) - My own helmet ` you mean today's the day? - Congratulations, Migo. - Big day, son! - Hey, everyone, I get to do a practice gong! - (ALL CHEER) - (LAUGHS) Whoo! # Now we all say... # Hey, hey, it's another day. # Like every other, and I don't wanna change a thing, # not one little thing. # I mean, because we like living this way, # and we're doing OK. # What could be better than this? # It is what it is. It is perfection. # You go, Migo, you go. Whoa! # You go, Migo, you go. Whoa! # I said doo-doo-doo, doo-doo. # It is perfection. # You go, Migo, you go. Whoa! # You go, Migo, you go. Whoa! I said doo-doo-doo, doo-doo. # It is perfection. # - Practice gong! - Practice gong! - Practice gong! - FEARFULLY: Practice gong? - Practice gong! - ALL: Practice gong! (GRUNTS) You ready? - Beyond ready! Can't wait till this is my actual job! - Yup, soon you will join a long line of family greats ` Uncle Flathead, Grandpa Smashhead, Great Grandpa Shelfhead, Aunt Crushedhead, Uncle Mushbrain, Aunt Bam-Bam, No-neck Nando, Cousin Squatly, Doug ` and his dumb mallet theory. We don't talk about him. And your mom. Wish she was here to teach you. - You're doing great, Dad. - Thanks, son. OK, first, check your wind. Doesn't take much to blow you off course. - Wind, check. - Good. Now, true your aim. You'll never succeed if your aim isn't true. - (STONES GRIND) - Aim, check! - Great! Now, this is important. Even though you know it's gonna hurt,... - Mm-hm. - ...you gotta hit it head-on. - Does it really hurt? - Only for the first year or two. - Hmm. Did you actually used to be my height? - Nope, I was much taller. Took me years to achieve this. Never missed a day! Oh, yeah! - Cool! - Ready? - Ready. - Say the word, son. - Launch! Whoo! Ow. - Uh, did I mention you gotta keep your feet up? - No. - You gotta keep your feet up. - Check. OK. Launch! (GRUNTS) Launch! (WHIMPERS) Launch. (EXCLAIMS) - Never seen that happen. - Launch. Whoo! (LAUGHS) - Attaboy, Migo! - Whoo-hoo! - (LONGING MUSIC) - Meechee. (SIGHS) - Migo, true your aim! True your aim! - (GASPS) Oh no. - (ALL GASP) - (SCREAMS) (GRUNTS) (GASPS) My helmet! Where's my... (EXPLOSION BOOMS IN DISTANCE) - (GASPS) (EXHALES) - (HELICOPTER APPROACHES) - Hmm? Wow! What is that? (ENGINE SPLUTTERS, POPS) - Uh. Um. Hey, hey! What? (PANTS) - (TENSE MUSIC) - (SCREAMS, PANTS) Go! Get away! Stop it! Not funny! (SCREAMS) (GRUNTS) (SCREAMS) (CHUCKLES) Yeah. (GRUNTS) (SCREAMS) (GRUNTS) (SHRIEKS) Whoa. Whoa. Whoa! (SIGHS) (GASPS) Oh. Whoa. - (TENSE MUSIC) - (CHUCKLES) - (SCREAMS) - (ROARS) Look at your small foot. (GASPS) Small foot. (GASPS) Smallfoot. Smallfoot! Oh my gosh, it's a smallfoot! Oh, no! No. Come back! Oh! (GASPS) Oh, holy wowness! (STAMMERS) Everyone! You gotta see this! Come here, come here, come here! Hey, everyone! Listen, listen! Everyone! - Hey, Migo. You missed the gong. - I know. - You missed the gong, Migo. - I know. Come here. Gather round, gather round. OK. I saw... a smallfoot! ALL: What? - What? - What? - What? - What? - What? - What? - What? - (GRUNTS) - What? - Ow! - (IMITATES EXPLOSION) - (GASPS) - Just come here and see for yourself! Let's go, come on! Everyone, let's go! - OK. - (CHILDREN LAUGH) - Hmm? - Mm-hm. - He's crazy! - Dad! - (SNIFFS) - (SCREAMS) - It came at me from the sky. It was like some sort of hard, shiny flying thing! It made a sound like... (IMITATES PLANE) And that's when it scooped me up! Look, it's right this way. (SCREAMS) - (WIND WHISTLES) - No! But... Uh... No! No, no! No! It was right here! - Hmm? Look, I swear! This shiny, flying thing. That's what the smallfoot shot out of. It was like, poof! - (ALL GASP) And then this big skin thing landed on top of it. It was like poof. - Ooh! And then it saw me, and it sang the most strange, beautiful song. It was like... (SHRIEKS) - (ALL GASP) - Almost, it was more like... (SHRIEKS) - (ALL GASP) - Oh, it's probably still around here somewhere. Let's look for it. Come on, everyone! - Still around here? - It could be in the village! - It could be at my house! - Get the children! - (ALL SCREAM) - Migo's gone crazy! - He said he saw a smallfoot! - (ALL SCREAM) - Oh, there you are! - (ALL CLAMOUR) - Wait! Hold on! Everyone! It didn't seem all that scary! It was kind of cute! - (HORN BLOWS) - Everyone, make way for my dad! Uh, I mean, the Stonekeeper. Sorry, Dad. I mean, Stonekeeper. Come on, Thorp. You blew it. - Good morning, everyone! Hey, how are you? - Oh, boy. - Is this about Migo missing the gong? - Stonekeeper, he saw a smallfoot! - He said it might still be out there! - He said it fell from the sky! - Garry, calm down. You know how you get. - OK, I'll try, but I'm just so scared. - Now, I know Migo has gotten you all very anxious with his little story, but there's nothing to fear because it isn't true. - (INDISTINCT MURMURING) - But I saw one! - (ALL GASP) - No, you didn't. - I did. - You can't have seen it because it doesn't exist. - I know, I know. Because the stone says there's no such thing as a smallfoot. - Yeah, right there, clear as day. - I know, but it was right there in front of me! - (ALL GASP) - Hey, Migo! How do you know it was a smallfoot? - Because it had a small foot. - (ALL GASP) - Uh, Dad? - (SIGHS) - Daddy, clearly, he saw something. - Oh, I'm not denying he saw something. Most likely, he slipped, hit his head, got confused and saw a yak. - (ALL MURMUR IN AGREEMENT) - Oh, OK, I get it now. - Because if Migo is saying he saw a smallfoot, then he's saying a stone is wrong. - Uh. - Is that what you're saying, Migo, that a stone is wrong? - Nope! He is not saying that! Let me talk to him. (CHUCKLES) Kids, right? Migo, what are you doing ` challenging the Stonekeeper in front of the whole village? - Dad, what's the piece of advice you're always giving me? - 'Do what you're told.' - The other one. - 'Blend in.' - The other one. - 'Follow the stones.' 'Be a cog.' 'Do your part.' 'Never disagree with the Stonekeeper.' - 'Always be true!' - That was about hitting a gong, not challenging a stone. Cos if it goes against a stone, it can't be true! - But if I say I didn't see a smallfoot, then I'm lying. - Migo. I thought you wanted to be the next gong ringer. - I do. - Then are you still saying a stone is wrong? - If saying I saw a smallfoot means that a stone is wrong, then I guess I am. - (ALL GASP) - Oh. - (SIGHS) - Oh, Migo. It pains me to say this, it truly does. But you leave me no choice. Disobeying the stones is a grave offense. From this day forward, you will be banished from the village! - (ALL GASP) - What? - Until you are ready to stand before us all and tell us the truth. - I am telling the truth. - That's all, everyone. Back to work. - Huh? - Let's make it another perfect day. - (INDISTINCT CHATTERING) - Stonekeeper, please. That's my son. - Just give him a little time alone out there to think. He'll come to his senses. - Sooze. - Hey! You're banished, remember? You know what that means. - Yes, Thorp. - You do? What does it mean? - Thorp! - Coming! We'll circle back. - (SIGHS) - (MAMMOTH GRUNTS) (WIND WHISTLES) (SOMBRE MUSIC) - Few can survive the cold, brutal environment of the Himalayas, but this ingenious creature defies the odds. The rare Himalayan jumping spider! This week on Percy Patterson's Wildlife! This agile arachnid can lay 1000 eggs at a time and can jump 50 feet into the air! There's an element of mental preparation, I'm sure. - (YAWNS) - (SHRIEKS) It's attacking! Oh no! - (GASPS) The venom, it's going to my brain! I can't feel my face. Keep rolling, keep rolling. (MUMBLES) - Cut! - (MUMBLES) I'm melting before your eyes. - Percy! - And we'll add an effect. Melting, melting, melting. - (GROANS) - Percy! - Cut this bit out. I'm gonna shut one of my eyes. Oh, my eye! My eye! - Cut! What are you doing? - I'm saving our show. Me being attacked would get huge ratings! - Our show is educational and enlightening! A show that promotes respect for our fellow creatures on this planet. - I know. That's why no one's watching. - That's why I don't watch. - (SIGHS) Look, Brenda, unless our spider jumps, it's boring. Hey, it jumped! - (SCREAMS) - Now, that was exciting. Did we film that? No, of course not. All right, I'll just have to go over here and interview a piece of bark, shall I? - Yeti! - What? - Plane crashed in the snow. Teeth, claws, huge! I saw... a yeti! - Yeti, you say? Let me buy you a drink, and you can tell me all about it. - You believe me, right? - Of course, I believe you! - You do? You can trust me. I fly planes! (LAUGHS NERVOUSLY) - (WHISPERS) Migo. - Huh? Who's there? - Migo. - Hello? - (GASPS) Smallfoot? Is that you? Uh, maybe you are going crazy. No wonder no one believes you. - We believe you. - (SCREAMS) - Hi. - (SCREAMS) - (WHISPERS) Migo. - BOTH: Fleem! - What? - (CHUCKLES) You guys. Is it just me, or does he look disappointed that it's us? - You want proof that you saw what you saw? - Yeah. - We got proof. - So, you believe me that I saw a` - (ALL SHUSH) - A small` - They're listening. - MIGO: Who? - The ears of oppression. - Yeah. - Uh... This way, stealth mode. (GRUNTS) - Could this day get any more bizarre? - Is this too close? - Uh? - You know what you are now? One of us. - Uh, hey, wait up! - (CHANTS) One of us! One of us! One of us! - Hey. - Summer's just... stopped. (AIR SQUEALS) Have you got your Bluetooth on? (DING!) * Now, don't tell Gwangi I said this, but he's a bit paranoid. - Fleem, are you talking about me? - Do you see what I mean? Kolka talks to rocks like they can hear her. - Fleem! (SHUSHES) I've been told I'm pesky, annoying, and a real pain, but, hey, who listens to their mom, right? (LAUGHS) - Uh. Where are you taking me? - Our leader requests a meeting. - Wait, you have a leader? Who? - You'll see. - (ROCK SCRAPING) - Oh, boy. - (CLAPPING, CREATURES SQUEAK) - He's here. - (ENCHANTING MUSIC) - Meechee? - Welcome! I'm really glad you're here. - (CHUCKLES) What? - What is this place, exactly? - The secret headquarters of the SES. - The Esias? - No, no, no. It's three letters, like S-E-S. - Stands for 'Smallfoot Exists, Suckers'! - Fleem. (CHUCKLES) It's 'Smallfoot Evidentiary Society'. - I mean, my name's got a lot more pizzazz, but... - Wait, you're, like, a smallfoot club? And, hold on, you're the leader? - (SIGHS) - But you're the Stonekeeper's daughter. - Look, I love my father, but he isn't exactly what you would call 'open to new ideas'. - Because questions lead to knowledge. - And knowledge is power. - So you don't just believe in the smallfoot, you've been looking for one. - Yes. You see all the X's? We have searched the entire mountain for years trying to find one. - Why are you looking for X's? - We're not looking for X's. We're looking for the smallfoot. And you have seen one. - But I can't prove it. - That is where we come in. Gwangi, show him the evidence. - (CLAPPING, CREATURES SQUEAK) - Here's your proof. - First item ` smallfoot pelt. Evidence suggests it sheds its skin annually. - Second item ` smallfoot horn. We believe it only has one. - And then there's this. The scroll of invisible wisdom. Just imagine the amazing stuff they put on here. - A bunch of crap, if you ask me. - This proves... nothing! - Show him the last one. - It's the first piece I ever found. It's the thing that started all of this. - (GASPS) - That was a trigger. He's triggered! - Mm-hm. - Look at your small foot. - You did see one. - Where did it go? - I don't know! - Think! - Reach into your memory! - Slap him! No! It got whisked away on the wind, over the clouds! - Which way? Up? Sideways? Where? - Down! - Did you say down? - Slap him! - BOTH: Fleem! - Down! Of course! You know, I have always thought it was weird that a mountain floats when there's obviously some invisible force pulling us downward and keeping everything around us from drifting off into the sky. Of course, this is just a theory. (CHUCKLES) But that's why we haven't found one up here. Because it's down here, below the clouds. And if you want proof, that's where we need to go. - In... In the... In the nothing? (LAUGHS) You're crazy. - Don't call me crazy. - Yeah, never call a crazy guy crazy. - You want to know why it's called the nothing? Because there's nothing down there! - Why do you believe that? - Because it's in the stones. - So is the one that says there's no smallfoot, and yet, you saw one. - Yeah. why is there a stone that says something doesn't exist? Doesn't that just prove that it actually does? And if one stone is wrong, then others could be as well. - What? Other stones? How many do you think are wrong? - The whole robe. - Huh. You know what? This whole thing's insane. I'm out. - Migo, wait. - Hey, I just wanna prove that I saw a smallfoot so I can get un-banished. But you? You wanna ` what, tear down everything our world is built on? - It's not just about tearing down old ideas. It's about finding new ones. - (SIGHS) - You know what, come with me. # Take a look around, and see the world we think we know, # and then # look # closer - Wow. - # There's more to life than meets the eye ` # a beauty to behold. # It's all # much # bigger # than we know. # It's only just beginning to unfold. # So let it all unfold. # Far beyond all reason # in your mind. # There's a world mysterious there for you to find. # All these questions that we always had. # All we are is curious. # There's nothing wrong with that. # So go round # every corner. # Search every part of the sky, # cos a life that's full # of wonder # is a wonderful life. - Whoa! (LAUGHS) - # Dig beneath the surface, find the lessons there to learn, # and then dig # deeper. # Feed your intuition. Don't leave any stone unturned. # Be the # seeker # of the truth. # Listen when you hear it calling you. # You know it's calling you. # Far beyond # all reason in your mind, # there's a world mysterious # there for you to find. # All these questions that we always have. # All we are is curious, # there's nothing wrong with that, # so go round # every corner, # search every part # of the sky, # cos a life that's # full of wonder # is a wonderful life. # Is a wonderful life. # Is a wonderful life. # Is a wonderful life. # Down there, Migo, a world awaits. - OK, I'll go. - Really? - Do you have a plan? - Of course we have a plan. - Uh, I think the plan might need more planning. - It was nice knowing you! - Hey, uh, I need to readjust the harness. It's a little too tight. - This should be enough rope. - Should be? - We don't know exactly how far down it is. It's also all the rope we have. - (CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY) - OK, if we're gonna do this, we gotta do it fast. Gwangi, tell him the plan. - Oh, boy. - Listen up. - Whoa! - Pull once to go lower, twice to stay put, - three times to come up. - Uh. - Four pulls means you've reached the bottom and it's safe for us to come down. - Wait, what was the second one? - Look, it doesn't really matter. (SCREAMS) Ow. - Your safe word is 'mystical creature'. - That's more of a phrase, really. - If you shout it, we'll abort the mission and pull you right on up. - How about just 'help'? I'll scream, 'Help!' Nice and short. - You're gonna do great. - Yeah, you really think so? - Let's do this! - (SCREAMS, PANTS) (GASPS) Whoa! Oh, oh. - Migo! If you die, can I have all your worldly possessions? - ALL: Fleem! - Right. Sorry, when you die. - Uh. - What do you see? - Uh, so far just seeing cloud and more cloud. Wait, wait, (GASPS) what is that? - Oh, no! - (ALL GASP) - Sorry, that was just my hand. - (ALL SIGH) - OK. - Still clouds. More clouds - Uh. - Man, there's a lot of clouds. - Meechee, you out here? - Thorp! - (ALL EXCLAIM) - Uh-oh. - 'Uh-oh'? Why 'uh-oh'? Uh-oh. Mystical creature! Hey, what are you freaks doing out here? - Mystical creature! - Uh, what was that? - Uh, it's, um, the wind! - Huh? - Yeah, it makes strange noises out here. Ooh. Mystical creature! - BOTH: Ooh. - Ow! - (ALL SIGH) (ALL SCREAM) - (SCREAMS) - Stop it. You're all acting weird. I don't like weird. Weird is weird, OK? (GRUNTS, SHRIEKS) I thought I heard Migo's high-pitched, kind of annoying voice. Where is he? - Hanging over the` (GROANS) - Honestly, we have no idea of the status of his whereabouts. - How many times was up? How... many... times? - Something's not right here. Let me think about this. (GROANS) Ugh, something's not adding up. Yeah, I can't do math. You're coming with me. (ALL GASP) - Oh, no! - Definitely not enough rope! (SCREAMS) (SCREAMS) (STOPS SCREAMING) (SCREAMS) (GASPS) Oh. (GASPS) Guys? ECHOES: Guys? Oh, boy. (GASPS) Oh, wow. - (ENCHANTING MUSIC) This is so not nothingness! This is definitely something-ness. - (BIRD SCREECHES) - Whoa. - (GOAT BLEATS) - (GASPS) - (BLEATS) - Oh my gosh! Look at you! Hi, little guy! - (BLEATS) - (BIRD SCREECHES) - (SCREAMS) - Oh no! That is just harsh! I'll teach you a little lesson. Take that! - (SCREAMS) - Yes! Run, little one! Run, run, be free! Oh, the shiny flying thing! (GASPS) A smallfoot. - (BOTH SCREAM) - Uh-oh. Whoa. No. No, no, no! Whoa! (SCREAMS) - (BIRD SCREECHES) Whoa! (SHRIEKS) Whoa! (SCREAMS) (SCREAMS) Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! (SCREAMS) No! Rock! Rock! (SCREAMS) Whoa. (SCREAMS) No, no, no, no. (GRUNTS) Hmm.

You wanna interview a man who says he saw a yeti? And you actually believe him? - Of course not, but it makes for good TV. - That man has altitude sickness. He needs help! - (GRUNTS) - After he helps us. - What? - Brenda, do you know what this village is famous for? Yetis. More reported yeti sightings here than anywhere else on the planet. - So? - Picture this. We're here looking for the Himalayan jumping spider, but we capture on film a yeti. We post the video, it goes viral, then, boom, my ratings skyrocket! - Yetis don't exist. - Or do they? Picked up a suit in town this afternoon, and it's a cracker ` has stilts and everything. - You're gonna put that thing on and deceive your fans? - (LAUGHS) Of course not! I'll be on camera. You'll be in the suit. - Wow! What has happened to you? Where is the Percy Patterson who loved animals, who inspired me to love them, who had integrity? - I have integrity. - Hmm. - OK, yes, I've gotta do one thing without integrity, and then I'll just be all integrity all the time. I will ooze integrity. I shall bathe in it. I will have a sports drink called Integrity that I will endorse not for free but I will take that money and give it to charity. That's how much integrity I will have! - (SCOFFS) - Brenda, please. Nobody's watching my show. You wanna save a species on the verge of extinction? - Save me. - (QUEEN AND DAVID BOWIE'S UNDER PRESSURE PLAYS) - Brenda! - Yo, I'm really nervous. This one goes out to my girlfriend! - Brenda, wait. Let me explain. - Lisa, will you marry... (SCREAMS) - # (RAPS) I thought I'd made it, celebrated when I got my TV show, # but the haters out there hating got my ratings low, low, low. # It's hard to compete with videos of twerking hogs # and water-skiing squirrels and monkeys riding on the backs of dogs. - # So much pressure - # Have mercy. I'm not the Percy that you've always heard about. # That Percy, he was successful, that Percy had a lot of clout. # Back then, back when I was high on that hill, # but now I'm broke here on the bottom with no way to pay my bills. # It's getting harder every day to catch a break, # so when I see a chance, then it's a chance I really need to take. # I'm just looking for a way of bouncing back. # The rent is due. I'm in a fix, and I'm about to crack. - # Under pressure. - Brenda? I'm making this up on the spot. - # Under pressure. - # Which is impressive, let's be honest. Come on! - # Brenda, Brenda, I'm a desperate man. # So help me get back on the top of rocking again. - # No pressure. - # Brenda, Brenda, won't you hear my plea? # The weight of all the world Is really weighing on me. - # So much pressure. - # This is no time to quit. I'm on the verge of a hit, # and I'm determined to make this a success, yeah. # Brenda, tell me you see all the potential in me. # I'll do whatever it takes to make you say yes. # Down on my knees, begging you please. # Won't you tell me you understand? Lend me a hand. # Oh, you gotta save me, save me, save me, # save me. # - (FEEDBACK WHINES) - Those aren't even the words. - You think I don't know that? Brenda? Oh, no, no, no. The bag! The suit! No! - (INDISTINCT CONVERSATION, LAUGHTER) - (GASPS) - (MUSIC PLAYS INSIDE) - (GOAT BLEATS) - Huh? (SHRIEKS) - (SHUSHES) - (BLEATS) - Hey, what you got there? - (SHUSHES) It's OK. - (BLEATS) - Hmm. - (GLASS BOTTLES CLATTER) - (GASPS) I must be close! - (DOOR OPENS) (GASPS) There it is! - (TRIUMPHANT MUSIC) - I should introduce myself. Oh, but why am I so scared? - (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) - Hmm. No language skills. Didn't see that one coming. - (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) - Excuse me. Um... - Brenda, please come back. It's just this one time, then we'll do the whole integrity thing, I promise. Please call me when you get this! - (OMINOUS MUSIC) - Thank you, Brenda! Oh! You've even put on the stilts. Oh, I love it. And the suit does not look fake. It's actually quite convincing. OK, here's the shot. I'll film over... (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) - He's doing all the talking. Just say something, you idiot. (INHALES) Here we go. - Hi. - Huh? - I'm Migo, and I have... (GROWLS) - Blimey, good growl. Did you put an amplifier inside there or something? This is why I work with you, Brenda. When you're in, you're all in. - (BEEP!) - OK, hair looks good. Nice bit of back light. (MUMBLES) Here we go, yeti discovery shot, take one. (PANTS) Percy Patterson here, high in the Himalayas. I was looking for the rare... - (GROWLS) - Not yet. Thank you. Cut that bit out. In three, two... (PANTS) I was looking for the rare Himalayan jumping spider, but I just heard a low growling coming from this direction. (GASPS) Is that a yeti? Do the growl. - (ENGINE STARTS) - Do you mind? Ugh. Brenda, will you turn that off? I'm trying to shoot Brenda in this... Wait a minute. Br... Brenda? Brenda? - (GROWLS SOFTLY) - (GASPS) WHEEZING: It's a yeti! It's a yeti! It's a yeti! I can't seem to shout. - You know, you'll laugh, because in my world everyone thinks you're this terrifying monster, that's all... (GROWLS) (CHUCKLES) But you don't look terrifying to me. - (GRUNTS) - You're adorable. - (SCREAMS) - Oh, the smallfoot song. I know this one. I know it. I know it. - (BOTH SCREAM) - Was that not right? - (SCREAMS) - I just need to take you home and prove to everyone that you exist so I can get un-banished. OK? - (PANTS) - (GROWLS) - (SHRIEKS) - You wanna bring anything? - (GRUNTS) - OK. - (LAUGHS) - (TENSE MUSIC) - You wanna bring that too? OK, come here. (GROWLS) Ooh, that looks cool! - (GRUNTS) No! (SCREAMS) - Wait! Where you going? Look how excited you are. - (SHRIEKS) - (CHUCKLES) (LAUGHS) - Uh! - (GIGGLES) - That's ironic. - (LAUGHS) Um. - (SNORES) - Uh. Smallfoot? Hello? Oh! That supposed to fall out like that? We need to put that back in there. It goes there, right? Oh, boy. - (SNORES) - All right, take a little bit of that... I hope you don't mind, but I'm taking you home. I'm gonna be all like, 'Yo, what's up?' And they're gonna be like, 'Yo, is that a... What?' And I'm gonna be like, 'Yeah!' Their faces are gonna be like... (SCREAMS) Then my face is like, 'Uh-huh! Smallfoot exists, suckas! Whoo-hoo!' (WHISTLES) - (RUMBLING) - Is that a blizzard? (YELLS) (GASPS, SCREAMS) (GASPS) You OK? Wow, that storm came out of nowhere, didn't it? Don't worry. We'll wait it out in here. It's nice and warm. (GASPS) No! (BLOWS) Uh. Please don't die. Please don't die. Please don't die. Don't worry, smallfoot. I'm gonna save you. I'm gonna save you. Just hang on! Hang on! Hang on! - Hmm, fire. So warm. So nice. Wait a minute. What's... (SHRIEKS, PANTS) No, no, you can't... - How's that? Nice and toasty all the way around. - (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) - (SHRIEKS) - Oh, hey. What's wrong? You hungry? I found your food. - Please` (GROANS) (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) - You still cold? (SIGHS) I can see why. You have, like, no fur. Oh, your cocoon is almost dry. Look, I'll clear out the space where you can just lie down until the storm passes, OK? - (GASPS) Percy Patterson here in what might be my last broadcast ever. I might get eaten or roasted or frozen solid or some horrible combination of the three. But know this... Know that I risked my life in pursuit of something extraordinary. Something bigger than us, literally, so much bigger. - Oh, great! You're moving. I've almost finished clearing off... (GROWLS) - I think he's saying he wants to have me for dinner. (PANTS) OK, OK, OK, OK. (MUTTERS) Oh, what? (GRUNTS) Come on, you stupid frozen fingers! (BLOWS) There we go. Brenda, give me my glory. Upload this video, then send help. Please work, please work, please work! Yes! ECHOES: No! - (LOW GROWL) - Something else is in here. Judging by the echo, I'd estimate distance is approximately 200 meters. Estimation wrong. - (ROARS) - (SCREAMS) (PANTS, GRUNTS) (GASPS) - (ROARS) - (SCREAMS) - My husband is back there sound asleep! - I'm sorry, I'm sorry. - Not to mention the children! Took me weeks to get them to sleep! - I don't even have kids, but I can imagine that that is just a really hard thing to do. - All I get is six months of a little mommy time, and you are ruining it! - (BOTH GROWL) - You just walk into my cave. You don't even wipe your feet! - Again, very, very sorry! - You better be sorry. I don't know what you are or where you came from, but you better learn some manners! - (PANTS) - Did you see that? She was all, like, 'You're gonna wake my husband.' And I was like, 'You gotta get out of here,' and then you totally understood me. We were communicating. This is amazing! - (LAUGHS) - (METAL CLANGS) - (ROARS) (GROANS) - (SIGHS) Don't be stupid, Percy. Do not go back to help the big, ferocious yeti. Do not do it! Although he did just save you from a bear. (GROANS) This is the wrong time to grow a conscience! - (GROANS) - (GASPS) - (SCREAMS) - Wow. It's OK, big fella. Let's get this thing off. Does this hurt? - (GASPS) - Sorry. This? How about this? - This? This? Sorry. - (GRUNTS, YELPS) - Stop it! - Got it. - (SIGHS) OK. It's OK. I'm OK. (GROANS) * - (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) - (CHUCKLES) - (PEACEFUL MUSIC) Oh, the storm's lifted! What do you say me and you get up that mountain and prove you exist? - Hmm? - Oh, right. Hand signals. Um... (GROWLS) - This is unbelievable, but I think the yeti is actually trying to communicate with me. And I think he wants me to go with him. This is either the bravest thing I've ever done or the stupidest. Here's hoping it's the former. - Oh, I almost forgot. Here. These should keep you warm. - No, no, no. (GASPS) - (SIZZLING) - Oh! That's actually quite nice. - (UPBEAT MUSIC) - Yeah! - (GRUNTS) Whoo-hoo! We're almost there. - (SUBDUED MUSIC) - Up and at 'em, Migo. Time to ring the gong! (GRUNTS) Why is this so hard this morning? (GROANS) - (CLICK!) - (SIGHS) Launch! Migo? Migo, time to ring the... Oh, yeah. Banished. - (SOMBRE MUSIC) - (GROANS) Uh-oh. (SCREAMS) (GROANS) Huh? What the... Huh? - (GONG RINGS) - (INDISTINCT CHATTERING) - Two gongs? - (GROANS) What just happened? WHISPERS: Don't ask. Just push it down. Push it down. My helmet? - Drop me, quickly, before I change my mind. - You can't do this, Meech! You're our leader! - Exactly why I should do it! Drop me! (WHIMPERS) OK. This is terrifying. I cannot believe Migo did this. - Which is why maybe, you know, (CHUCKLES) you shouldn't! - I just wanna say, I'm fine with it being you. - I should go. I'm strongest, and I've trained myself to sleep with my eyes open. I'm asleep right now. You're all part of my dream. - He's down there because I convinced him to go, and he might be lost or hurt. - Or dead. - BOTH: Fleem! - Oh, what, now we're not about the truth? - Last time, we dropped him because Thorp showed up which he might do again, so can we please go? - Guys! Guys! - Oh, I can still hear his voice in my head. - Guys! - It's in my head too. - Hey! - Migo! He's here! - I know, and he always will be. - No, no, no. He's here! As in, over there! - (GASPS) - Guys! - BOTH: Migo! - Migo! - (SCREAMS) Mystical creature! - Oh, no! Uh. - (SCREAMS) - I've got you! Oh. - Migo! - (LAUGHS) - I am so relieved! - Oh, hi! - Hey! - (CHUCKLES) Hi. - (CHUCKLES) Hi. - See? I told you he was alive! - My brother! - Oh, Migo! Oh, Migo. - Whoa-whoa! Guys, easy. Easy, easy. - Mmm? Huh? - What is that? - Smallfoot Evidentiary Society, meet your mystical creature! - (GRUNTS) Huh? - (ALL GASP) - (GASPS) - I knew it was real. - No one's gonna think I'm crazy any more. - He's so beautiful! - And so... short! - You did it, Migo. You actually did it! - No, we did it, the SES! - (ALL GROWL) - Wow! Four more Sasquatch. It's a whole Sasquad. - (GASPS) - (LAUGHS) Fear me, little creature. I am your god! - Fleem, what are you doing? - Establishing dominance. - No. - (SCREAMS) - We don't dominate. We welcome him with open arms. - (SCREAMS) - Oh, did I just do that? - (GRUNTS) - I am so sorry! Are you OK? Are you hurt? I'm so sorry. I love you. I love you. - Hey, hey. We gotta bring this truth to the village, blow some tiny minds. (IMITATES EXPLOSION) - What was that? - Their minds are really tiny. - Ah! - Gwangi's right. Let's wake them up. - (ACTION MUSIC) - (GASPS) - What? Migo's back? - Migo? - Yeah, that's right. In your face! Ow! My face! - Hey, listen! Everyone! Stop what you're doing and follow us! This is gonna be the best part of your day! - You heard Migo. Everybody. - That's right! - Migo? Hey, you up there, come on down! - Come on, kids. You too, Garry. Get over here. - Let's go! You're gonna love it! - (LAUGHS) Hey, Migo, welcome back` Hold on, aren't you supposed to be banished? - Yep. - Ah, cool. - Everyone, listen up. Gather round. I promise, you're gonna wanna see this. - (CROWD MURMURS) - (CLEARS THROAT) My fellow yetis, there are moments in life that are imbued with such importance, we must pause and look deeper into the moment of the place in which we are, to hold such beauteous gravitas and take in the beauty... - I'm losing interest! - Get to the point! - Yep, OK. Here we go. Fellow yetis, behold, the smallfoot! - (ALL GASP) - (IMITATES EXPLOSION) - Mm-hm. - (MAGICAL MUSIC) - I can't believe my eyes. These aren't primitive beasts living in caves. This is a complex civilization. Do you know what this means for the world? A Percy Patterson network special. You're welcome, world! - STONEKEEPER: So... - (ALL GASP) (SHUSHING) - What's all the excitement about this time? - Migo found a smallfoot! - (SCOFFS) That's one guess. - But, Dad, look at the small foot! - Hmm? Don't yaks have small feet? - (SIGHS) - Let me take it into the palace, consult the stones and determine what it is. - STAMMERS: What if it is a smallfoot? Does that mean a stone is wrong? - (ALL GASP) - (COUGHS) They're all wrong. - (ALL MURMUR, GASP) (OVERLAPPING CHATTER) - Garry, just breathe. - (OVERLAPPING CHATTER) - Everyone, please. What do the stones tell us about questions? - (ALL INHALE) - (EXHALES) - (ALL CLAMOR) - I have so many questions! - Where is it from? - Why is it pink? - How did you get it here? - What does it eat? - How does it think with such a tiny little brain? - Honestly, I have just as many questions as you do. - Where is its horn? - Is that its ear? - Does it want a bite of fruit? - How is it here if a stone says it can't be? - # It's all # much bigger # than we know. - How? - Why? - What do you mean? - # It's only just beginning to unfold. - I'm so confused. - There's more to know? - # So let it all unfold. - # I never knew there was more to know. Isn't it all so amazing? - # There's a world mysterious There for you to find. - # Out of the blue, there was room to grow. Isn't it all kind of crazy? - # All we are is curious, there's nothing wrong with that. - # So go round every corner. - You call that art? # Search every part of the sky. - What is he doing? - Is he really gonna fly? - # Cos a life that's full of wonder # is a wonderful life. - (ENCHANTING CHANT MUSIC) - Whoo! (WHIMPERS) - (GASPS) - (GRUNTS) - (ALL LAUGH) - (LAUGHS) - (SNIFFS) (GASPS, TRUMPETS) - Blossom, sit. - I got you. - Down. Down! - (WHIMPERS) - (BOTH LAUGH) - (CAMERA CLICKS) - (EXCITED CHATTER) - Do you see what you've started? - Yes! Do you? Look at them! We have been living in fear for too long, Dad. - All I ever wanted to do was keep you safe, Meechee. - Everything I do, I do to protect the village and you. - I don't need you to protect me. I need you to listen to me ` to all of us, especially Migo. Dad, he went below the clouds. They're talking to Migo because they have questions and he's listening instead of telling them to just push them down. But, believe me, you are their leader, and they wish it was you. So, just talk to Migo about what he saw. Please. - You're right. That's exactly what I need to do. - Oh, thank you! I knew you'd come around. I'm gonna go get the smallfoot! Bye! - That's a snood. It's like a sort of scarf. - (CHILDREN GIGGLE) - That's a fibre supplement. I'd rather not go into it. That's a sock. It's a lining between your shoe and your foot. That's not how you're supposed... Ugh. Four days I had them on. - (CHILDREN GIGGLE) - Can you translate the Scroll of Invisible Wisdom? - Ah. Yes. Actually, I do need this. - Ugh! It is not wisdom and definitely not invisible. - Hmm. - Hey, where's Migo? - Hey, Dad! Dad! Oh, is this the best day ever or what? Dad? What's wrong? What happened to your helmet? - I missed the gong. But the sky snail, it came up anyway. - Whoa. So another stone is wrong. This is amazing. - Amazing? What's so amazing about it? The stones are supposed to be stones, you know? Sturdy, reliable, true. And now the snail is just rising on its own? - If it even is a snail. Meechee thinks it might be a flaming ball of gas. - Gas? I've been banging my head on that thing to wake up a gas ball? That's usually what wakes me up. - (SIGHS) Look, Dad, I know all of this change is scary. But maybe this is a good thing. Maybe there's something even better than banging your head against the gong. - But if I don't ring the gong, I'm not the gong ringer. And if I'm not the gong ringer, then what am I? - (SOMBRE MUSIC) - Hey, Migo! My dad wants to see you. - The Stonekeeper, really? - Which must be nice for you, cos he never wants to see me. (CHUCKLES) - OK. Why did I shout that out? That's so embarrassing. Ugh. Blew it again, Thorp. - Hey, Dad. I'll be back. Dad? - Hmm. * - (OMINOUS MUSIC) - Look at them. The great Stonekeepers of the past. Each one adding new stones as they received wisdom about what was best for the village. Robe looks heavy. - It is. It requires a strong backbone. - (RUMBLING, SCRAPING) - (GASPS, GRUNTS) Whoa. Secret stairs. OK. Um. Where are you taking me? - (CHUCKLES) So many questions. Think it's about time I give you some answers. - (INTRIGUING MUSIC) - Whoa! What is this? - You see, Migo... # RAPS: There was a time when yetis lived beneath the clouds. # We were alive, and we were thriving # till we came across a crowd of smallfoot. # That's right, we used to live down there, # but there were actions we could not forgive down there. # And though they used a different nomenclature, # man or human, they showed us human nature ` a dangerous species. # Though we approached with wonder, they attacked with their spears # and their smoking sticks of thunder. # They called us Sasquatch. They called us abominable. # They chased us, pursued us, their persistence indomitable. # We had no choice but to run and hide, # otherwise, we surmised we were facing genocide. # So we climbed this mountain just to stay alive. # You see, we knew that up here smallfoot could not survive, # so it was here the first law was written in stone. # It was named and proclaimed as a truth to be known. # Our world is an island that floats on a sea of endless clouds, # that's how it would be, # and then we wrote more laws, more rules to obey, # for the sake of us all, it was the only way. # To protect us from all of the human ravages, # heaped upon us by those human savages, - # Now you know. Now you know. Now you know. # Now you know. Now you know. - # And new rules apply. - # Now you know. Now you know. Now you know. - # So it's best just to let it lie. - # Let it lie. # Now you know. Now you know. Now you know. # Now you know. Now you know. - # And you can't deny. # Now you know. Now you know. Now you know. - # That it's best just to let it lie. - # Let it lie. - But my smallfoot, he's not like that. - They're all like that. Tell me, when you found him, did he greet you with open arms? - (GASPS) - They don't care about us. They don't care about anything but themselves. Which is why we must do the same ` if we care about our future. - (RUMBLING) - (INTRIGUING MUSIC) - # We're below the clouds. - # Or so it would seem, but look closer. - Those aren't clouds! It's steam. - The stones are working. - The stones? - # Every job and every task as pointless as it seems, # all of it ensures that this important machine # keeps churning and turning and spinning around, # so those below don't look up and those above don't look down. # And they'll look cos even if they hear of these atrocities, # the only thing stronger than fear is curiosity. - # Now you know. Now you know. Now you know. - Wait, so none of those stones are true? They're all lies? - # Let it lie. - Good lies to protect our world. - But they need to know the truth. - Oh, do they? # You feel emboldened by your noble quest to find the truth. # I chalk it up to the naive innocence of youth, # so let me share a secret that you'll learn as you grow older. # What's true or not true is in the eye of the beholder. # So do you wanna prevent our own annihilation? - Yes! - # Then our only goal should be to control the flow of information, # unless you want To see the smallfoot conquer and pillage - No! - # Then protect the lie, and you protect the village. Lives are at stake, Migo ` your friends, your father, Meechee. - OK. I want to know everything there is to know about you and your world. - She's curious. And you know what they say ` 'curiosity killed the yak.' - So what do you want me to do? - Tell everyone you were lying about the smallfoot. - (SCOFFS) But they've already seen it. They're not gonna believe me. - You'd be surprised at what they'll believe. You think knowledge is power, Migo? - # Now you know. Now you know. Now you know. # Now you know. Now you know. - Question is... - # Now you know. Now you know. Now you know. - ...what are you gonna do with that power? - (CHORUS HUMS) - OK. It's a little fuzzy, but I think I'm starting to get it. Your job is to tell stories that fly through the air in a series of pictures in rapid succession that magically appear in other smallfoots' homes. (GROWLS) - TV, right! - And what is this thing here? - That's the roof of my home. Home. - Home? - (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) - (GROWLS) - Are we saying the same thing? (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) - (GROWLS) Oh, is that, like, your best friend? - That is evil banker man. He wants to take my home away because of something called a 'variable interest rate'. - (GROWLS UNCERTAINLY) - Apparently, I don't know what it means either. (CHUCKLES) (SHUDDERS) The air is really thin up here, isn't it? - (GROWLS) - Those are animals. - (TRUMPETS) - (SHRIEKS) - (BOTH LAUGH) - Cheeky. Anyway, the point is ` this is why I do what I do, see? I was fascinated with other species, like you. Actually, nothing like you. You're quite extraordinary. But lately, I started to only care about how many people are watching, how popular I am. Wow. Hearing myself say this out loud... What's the yeti word for 'pathetic'? When I was 9, I saw my first lion. It looked like this, see? (MUTTERS) It looked nothing like this. That looks like a fat poodle. Here, I'll just show you. - (GASPS) Whoa, whoa, whoa. OK, what is that thing? - 'They don't care about us. Lives are at stake, Migo. 'They don't care about anything but themselves. 'Good lies. Which is why we must do the same. Protect our world. 'Your friends, your father, (ECHOES) Meechee.' - No, don't do that. What are you doing? You're ruining it! Stop! Stop it! Red one up! Up, up! Now, over to the blue one. Blue one. Three in a row! Yes! - Meechee? - Not now, Migo. Ooh! OK, down, down. Right side. Purple thingy. Slide it. Slide it. - (YAWNS) - Oh! There we go! Boom! (LAUGHS) Whoo! Migo, I'm putting shapes next to other shapes to make the rows disappear. It's pointless and a total waste of time, but I can't stop. (GROANS) There goes our high score. Smallfoot? Hey, are you OK? - (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) Getting a little woozy. I'm going to need some more oxygen. Oxygen. I can't remember my own name. - (SPEAKS GIBBERISH) - Um. What's all this? Oh, uh, we learned how to communicate! That's his world... - (GASPS) ...and I think it's really big and there are more smallfeet down there, like, a lot more. Migo, I think something's wrong. He doesn't look so good. - (SHUDDERS) - He's cold and his breathing is off. - 'You see, we knew that up here, smallfoot could not survive.' - I think we need to take him home. - What? No! - No? Why not? What if he's really sick? What if he needs help? - Just stop asking questions! - Stop asking questions? - (HORN BLOWS) - Attention, everyone! The Stonekeeper has an announcement. - What's going on? Do you know? Cos you look like you know something. - Just stop, please. - Well, well, well, what an interesting day it's been ` a day full of excitement and questions. So many questions. I must admit, the events of the day even had me asking a few. - (ALL GASP) - Uh-oh, I smell cover-up. - So I asked Migo to join me so I could question him about his amazing discovery. And together, we've reached the same conclusion. Migo, tell them what we learned. - Yeah. Um... - (GASPS) - (DISTORTED GROWLING) - The thing is, see... Uh. Yeah, it's, uh... What I was gonna tell you is, um... - (SCREAMING) - Uh. It's not a smallfoot. - (ALL GASP) - (LAUGHS) Wait. What? - Yeah. I was wrong, I got confused, and the Stonekeeper figured it out. It's actually a type of yak. - A yak? - (SCOFFS) - Migo found a rare breed that even I didn't know about. - No. - A red-coated pygmy hairless yak. - You know this is not a yak. - As you can see, its existence is confirmed in stone. (ALL GASP) - WHISPERS: What is happening? - The stones have protected us for generations, but we've been ignoring them. No one's been feeding the great mountain mammoths today. - (ALL GASP) - He's right. - And because of that, we are sinking. - (GASPS) I don't wanna sink! - Garry, you're right to be afraid. Everyone, listen to Garry. - (ALL GASP) - I don't wanna sink into the nothing! - These are lies, Migo. We saw you go below the clouds. - I didn't. I fell into the clouds and I found him inside of a cave. - What? - (ALL GASP) - Don't listen to him. This is all part of a massive cover-up! - Please, just... - We're all part of a big machine. - Dude, no. Come on, stop! - In fact, I think it might be a big machine that's down there! - You need to stop! - It does sound like a machine! - I thought so too! - You heard me! - Just stop! - (ALL GASP) A big machine. (LAUGHS) Right (!) Let's all listen to Gwangi and his whacked-out theories because we all know that Gwangi is just straight-up crazy. - (GASPS) - What? - Don't call him crazy. - Come on, are we really gonna listen to these guys? They're the village weirdos, right? We all know that. They're just trying to prove all the stones wrong. But if we don't follow the stones, really bad things can happen. - Well said, Migo. That's the truth. - The truth? I don't think anybody around here cares what that is. - (SIGHS) Guys, wait. - Migo, give him to me. - Wait, what are you doing? - (YETIS MURMUR) - No, no, no! He need warmth, and he can't breathe! - Meechee. - Why are you doing this? - This is something we should discuss inside. - Inside. Yes, Father. - Meechee, we need to talk. - I think you've said enough. - OK, everyone. Now everything can go back to the way it was. Everyone, back to work. The village won't run itself. - The smallfoot, what are you gonna do with him? - We're taking him back to the cave where you found him. - But I didn't find him in a cave. - But you said you did, so they believe you. - Uh. - You've done a good thing, Migo. - (TENSE MUSIC) - (STONE SCRAPING) - Stonekeeper, wait! No! - You've done your job, Migo. Go home. - (SOMBRE MUSIC) (INTROSPECTIVE MUSIC) - (SIGHS) - (STONES CLATTER) - (SNORES, GASPS) - (JOINTS CREAK) - (GRUNTS) - (JOINTS POP, CREATURES SQUEAK) - (GRUNTS) Migo? What's wrong? What are you doing? - (SIGHS) I was just thinking about Stone 15. - Uh. 'Ignorance is bliss'? - Yeah. That one's true. Ignorance is bliss. Or at least it was. I was pretty happy when I didn't know about the smallfoot. Or the SES or how amazing Meechee really is. And I'm pretty sure I'd be happier not knowing that they hate me. Or that I lied and betrayed them all. (SIGHS) I miss being ignorant. So let's just, you know, go back to the way things were. With one change. I'll be the gong ringer from now on. Maybe banging my head into that thing will make all of these feelings go away. - Oh, yeah. You'll pretty much go numb. You won't feel a thing. - Good, because I feel like such a jerk. - OK. Now, you remember the advice I gave you, right? First, check the wind. Pretty easy to get blown off course. - Wind, check. - And you gotta true your aim. You'll never succeed if your aim isn't true. - Aim, check. - And don't forget, even though you know it's gonna hurt, you gotta hit it head-on. - Um. - He's in there. She's in there. - But... You already woke the village, Son. Now, go make sure they stay awake. - I love you, Dad. - I love you too, Son. Now, say the word. - Launch! Whoo! - (TRIUMPHANT MUSIC) (GRUNTS, GROANS) - (MAMMOTH GRUNTS) - Ow! Meechee, I am so sor... Oh no. - Meechee? - (GASPS) - What are you doing here? - (DRAMATIC MUSIC) - Meechee. - Where's the smallfoot? - (BREATHES SHAKILY) - Hold on, little guy, OK? You're almost home. Wow. - (TENSE MUSIC) * - Yeah, uh, so Meechee took the smallfoot. - (SIGHS) - And, uh, convinced me I have a lot of anger issues because of something called a father complex. I don't know, something about not getting enough hugs as a kid. Really doing some serious processing right now, Dad. - What have I done? - Open the door! (PANTS) Guys! Guys! You have to help me! Meechee's taken the smallfoot below the clouds! Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean what I said. I can explain everything ` after we find Meechee. She's in danger. You have to believe me! - Why should we believe you? You lied. Friends don't do that. - Or stab you in the back and call you crazy in front of the whole village. - You acted like me. I expect more from you. - You're right. I lied. (SIGHS) You know, you've always searched for the truth no matter what anybody said. They laughed at you; they called you names. - Wait, what names? - But you never let fear get in the way. That's what I should have done. And it's what I'm gonna do now. - (HEROIC MUSIC) - (SCREAMS) - ALL: Migo! - Wait! What names? - (SCREAMS) - (SHRIEKS) - (GRUNTS) (GROANS) Oh, Meechee, where are you? - (DISTANT SCREAMING) - (GASPS) Huh? (SCREAMS) - (GRUNTS) - Kolka! - Hi! - Hi! Wait, if you're here, that means... - (SCREAMS) - (BOTH SCREAM) - Man! That is a long way down! - (BOTH GRUNT) - Guys! - (ALL PANT) - You came! - Of course we came ` for Meechee. - (GASPS) Oh. (CHUCKLES) Yeah. Yeah, I know. - And a little bit for you, but mostly Meechee. - Thank you. Even you, Fleem. Wait, where's Fleem? - OK, pros and cons. Pro, Migo needs you. Con, you're useless to him if you're dead. (GROANS) Cons ` one. Pros ` zero. OK. Pro. - Yeah, Fleem sucks. - We can't wait. We have to find Meechee right now before someone else does. - Wow. It's so big. - How do we even know she landed here? - (CLEARS THROAT) - Oh. - OK, little guy. You can breathe easy now. You're home. See? Home. What is that? - (GASPS) Wait, where am I? Huh? What?
