CACKLING ECHOES

LUCY MOOS Moo!

SIGHS I'm so sorry.

I know this was my chance to make you all so proud.

At least we're all together, right? Right?

GRUNTS

Honestly, the moment Badjelly opens this jar,

I'm poking that monster right in the eye!

Uh, w-what did I do? Huh?

What are you on about?

Why are you gonna poke me in the eye?

I'm not. I'm gonna poke Badjelly in the eye.

Hang on. Are you saying "Bradjelly"?

No! Why would I say "Bradjelly"?

I'm saying "Badjelly". She's called Badjelly.

Oh, right. No, that makes more sense.

You see, my name's Bradjelly.

I spent the better part of ten years getting Badjelly's mail.

Hence why she lovingly popped me in this cosy, tiny home.

Mm, yeah, I hate to break it to you,

but I think you were captured and imprisoned.

Oh. Well, that's a, erm... twist.

Oh! We've all learnt new stuff about ourselves in the last few days.

Maybe tell us a bit about yourself. Like, what flavour are you?

Oh, right. Well, that's easy.

A, erm... Well, a lovely green lemon.

I think they call that lime.

Argh! A second blow of the day. Ay, ay, ay.

Well, look, if you lot don't mind,

I might need a moment to process all this new information.

Deary me. But, you know, best of luck with your predicament.

I can't believe we came all this way just to end up as soup.

Really stinks. The soup and the situation.

Look at me.

Stuck in a cage like a gormless chirpy chap.

I must say...

..this is a wonderful sight! CHUCKLES

Ah! BADJELLY CHUCKLES

Whoo! Ha-ha-ha!

BRADJELLY: Deary, deary me.

You know, I only needed you two for my soup.

But you've brought me some lovely goblin and worm seasoning.

Wouldn't it be a shame not to use them?

BADJELLY CACKLES

Ooh! Ooh! What about me?

I'm not eating you. I'm not a monster.

I'm a witch.

Who's going to turn you into a delightfully rustic clock!

Oh. Right.

Oh, I've got to get my mopey giant

so he can witness my powers returning.

Now, you lot wait here looking hilariously miserable.

BADJELLY LAUGHS

Yes, just like that. BADJELLY CACKLES

I'm sorry for letting you down, Gramps.

Ugh! Argh!

BOTH: There must be some way out of this.

SIGHS

I would normally be able to... smash my way out of this jar.

But the old pickle fumes are really making me... woozy.

Tim, if we can start swinging, I can maybe get high enough

to kick Binklebonk's cage to the ground.

Then that should break open his cage,

and he can open Mudwiggle's jar,

and she can push the cauldron out of the way and set us free.

Yes! THEY GRUNT

I'm glad you two are having fun.

Almost.

Oh! It's no use. I can't reach.

It's OK, Rose. It was worth a try.

DISTANT SCREECHING

Oh, listen to that.

I know the sound of someone stubbing their toe when I hear it. Poor soul.

No. I'm pretty sure that was a...

SCREECHING

BOTH: Argh! A giant murderous eagle!

Giant? Yes.

Murderous? Only if it comes to it.

Jim! You came! I knew you would.

Indeed.

Mere bricks and mortar were no match

for the might of my equilateral wings.

Look at them! Look at their unparalleled symmetry!

I thought you might need a hand.

And a wing, of which I have two, that are perfectly proportioned.

Dinglemouse. How are we supposed to trust you after what you did?

I understand, she said with genuine remorse.

But maybe I can show you with my actions.

Careful. That sounds like she's going to kick you, there.

Jim, wind power, please.

I thought you'd never ask.

Windy wings! Whoo!

Hi-yah!

Oh, that big oaf is never around when you need to show off to him.

What?

Badjelly.

Noooo!

I thought I had humiliated you into oblivion.

And that gem has my magic!

Oh, this old thing? Quite beautiful, isn't it?

In fact, you should see how it glimmers... outside!

I would thank you for having us, but you were pretty awful.

Bye! RUSTY GRUNTS

Hyah! Hyah!

Ugh! No more games. No more soup.

Just vengeance.

Mm! Perfect landing.

Thank you so much, Jim. You are as majestic as expected.

You are very welcome.

I hear it was you who found the missing piece

of my protection gem.

Not to be confused with a protection crystal,

which is made-up nonsense.

I felt drawn to it for some reason.

Like I was supposed to find it.

Mm.

Yeah. And I was supposed to find this amazing lollipop.

But it's just a stick now.

An awesome, chewed stick sword! Hyah!

CHUCKLING: En garde, you goblin scum.

Please remove that saliva-laden nibble stick from my vicinity.

You know we would have just given you that piece of gem if you asked.

I know. I'm just impulsive. I hate that I betrayed you all.

I was so fixated on being turned back into a banana

that nothing else mattered.

Was?

This journey has made me realise something.

While others may see me as a mouse, inside, I'm an amazing banana.

And although people might not see that at first,

eventually, they will.

And I'm happy knowing that.

And we're happy knowing you, mate.

You are the bravest banana I've ever known.

And I'm guessing you're loving that you've heard that from me.

LUCY MOOS

Lucy!

Oh, we've missed you so much.

MOOS

Oh, you won't believe the things we've seen

and the amazing friends we've met.

GRUMBLES

SNARLS

Show me the escaped ingredients. GROWLS

If they think they've won, I have horridible news for them!

THUNDER RUMBLES

All right, everybody. What do you say?

Back to my place for tree bark bolognese

and a warm pot of dandelion tea.

Dandy-lion? Is it made from, you know...?

Lions? No, no.

It's not even made from real dandelions.

I buy the cheap knock-off stuff, just quietly.

Hey. You two OK?

You should be so proud of yourselves.

I knew you had "leader" written all over you, Rose.

We can't leave.

She's lost her mind! Rose is right.

Although he's the same as before.

What's going to stop Badjelly from grabbing other kids

or ruining the lives of other people in the Dark Forest?

We have to stop her... for good.

Sounds good to me. I'm in.

I'm in too. And I'm on the back of Rusty!

So... what's the plan?

Well, when I'm dealing with trouser robbers,

I yell aimlessly into the woods,

and that usually repels them and anyone else nearby.

I once let go of a balloon, and then it was gone forever.

What's your point there?

That's it!

That's it. Yes.

Do you want to say "it" at the same time, or...?

Badjelly's castle.

It's tethered to the ground with those big chains.

If we can detach them from the ground,

maybe the castle will float away with her stuck inside.

..with her stuck inside! BINKLEBONK CHUCKLES

Great minds think alike, Rose. You and I there.

All right. Pick yourselves a chain, everyone.

OK. Legs straight. Lift with your back.

GRUNTS

No, not budging. SIGHS

Gosh. Wasting our time there.

They must have used

industrial-strength concrete or something.

That would've cost 'em. Ahem. May I?

BINKLEBONK GRUNTS

RUSTY GRUNTS

ROSE: Nice one, Rusty. I loosened it.

Ha! STRAINS

Ha! Yes, Mudwiggle!

You really are the world's strongest worm.

GROWLS

Stinkypoo to all of you!

I don't need that disgusting soup.

My powers are returning the old-fashioned way -

through pure, unhinged rage and seething hatred!

CACKLES

GROWLS

CACKLES

OK, you lot keep breaking the chains.

Me and Jim will distract her and get her back in that castle.

TIM GRUNTS You're not doing it alone, Rose.

Eagle launch! That's my line.

You didn't do it right. Eagle launch!

RUSTY GRUNTS I chomped another chain.

It's so easy for me. All right, we get it.

CHUCKLES

JIM SCREECHES Huh?

GASPS Ah! Ah!

This time, I'm gonna take those wings as trophies!

Oh! Whoa!

Rose, how did you do that? I don't know.

Oh! Next one won't miss. I'm just getting warmed up!

Leo, did you hear that? Yeah, I did.

I think it's coming from up ahead.

Oh, I hope that has nothing to do with either of our kids.

TIM: Ha-ha! You missed us again, you goofy witch!

Please tell me that wasn't Tim.

My name is Tim, and I'm invincible!

Maybe it's a different Tim?

Let's see if we can cloud her judgement.

JIM LAUGHS

We need to catch her off guard.

We must stay as quiet as a muffled cheese slice

pressed between two slices of mixed-grain bread.

BADJELLY: You can't hide forever!

BADJELLY CACKLES

Jim, do you think you can land near the castle balcony?

Hm. Looks like a clear run. TIM GASPS

THUNDER CRACKS No! Let him go.

Oh, sweetie, I plan to.

Whoo! TIM SCREAMS

BADJELLY CACKLES No!

Ooh! What do we do? Tim!

We need to catch him. OK.

We've gotta save him, guys.

Here we go.

Tree, tree, one, two, three. Please grow very big for me!

SCREAMS

GRUNTS

Oh! That... That was amazing.

Way to go, Binklebonk!

That was huge, bud. Are you OK?

Yeah. I'm OK. It's what they would've wanted.

They're heroes. And so are you.

Thank you. I appreciate the kind words.

But maybe we can circle back to them

because we've got a witch to whack, yeah?

And, Rusty, you've got one more chain to chomp.

Oh, yeah! On it.

My castle!

What have you done?

You're going to regret crossing me,

for I am Badjelly, the baddest witch in all the world!

ROSE: But you don't have to be. Excuse me?

You don't have to be like this.

Oh, what are you blathering about, you worthless brat?

Everyone is capable of change. You could change.

Is getting your magic back really worth it?

Look at what it's doing to you. But... But it's who I am.

You're hurting yourself.

You're hurting everyone. You could just stop.

You could be good!

You could be accepted and... and liked.

But... I... I'm supposed to be bad. It's in my name.

You could choose a different name. You could be Goodjelly.

Or how about Greatjelly? Imagine that.

You know, Greatjelly the witch - the goodest witch in all the world.

Sounds good, doesn't it? Oh, that's got a nice ring to it!

I mean, the grammar could use a little finessing,

but we could workshop it.

Who's that?

Oh, this is Cobblestone. They're my new best friend.

Say hello. Hello!

Do you know what?

I think I'm going to stick with Bad!

THUNDER CRACKS

Ooh... Oh... SHE GRUNTS

THUNDER BOOMS, SHE GASPS

BOTH SCREAM

LEO: Hold on. What?!

Mum, Dad, don't move! Ah!

Ha-ha! This belongs to me. CRACKLING

Whoa! ROSE SCREAMS

Rose! ROSE SCREAMS

GRUNTS, EXHALES

You're OK. I've got you. Hm.

There you go. Oh, mind the gap. HE CHUCKLES

You traitor!

I regret I ever abducted you,

but now... you're going to have... That's enough.

Gah!

CRACKLING

Hold on. THEY SCREAM

GRUNTS Whoa!

Mum, Dad, I'm not sure how much I can control this thing,

but you need to jump on.

Hup! Whoa! What is going on?

This is all madness.

Oh, I'm so happy to see you both, but there is no time to talk.

I'll fill you in later. Oh!

We're happy to see you too, sweetheart. Whoa!

THUNDER BOOMS

Whoa!

Mum and Dad, this is Binklebonk, Mudwiggle,

Dinglemouse, Rusty and Jim.

An eagle.

The eagle, thank you very much.

Ah... I hope we're not going to be tested on all those names.

You will be. SHE CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY

That's a goblin, and I don't know if it's joking.

EXPLOSION BOOMS

I need to stop this. I'm going to try one more time.

WE'RE going to try one more time.

Fly safe!

Don't fly too close to the... glowy electricity lady.

BADJELLY CACKLES

Badjelly, think about what you're doing.

It's too much power. You're going to destroy yourself.

Look what you're doing to your castle.

I don't need any of you!

My fury's made me more powerful than I could ever have imagined.

CACKLES

BINKLEBONK: Oh, my!

It's too much power. You have to stop.

Oh, I don't want to stop! I want to be all-powerful.

I want my presence felt

in every corner of this pitiful dark forest.

I want its inhabitants to tremble at my name.

For I am the most fearsome witch in all the land!

I am the darkness.

I.. I am the terror!

I... am... Badjelly!

THEY GROAN

SOBS

Help.

Look at me. I'm a bunny again.

I'm not a policeman tree any more. Now I'm just a tree.

I think I've been ripped off.

TIM GRUNTS

You totally flew on a witch's broom. So did you.

Huh. Look. A balloon.

It's got a baboon on it. A babloon.

DAD SNICKERS Oh, that's funny.

DAD CHUCKLES Right?

GIGGLES, TINKLING

Looks like you found me again.

CHIRPS, BARKS

Hello there, little fella. GROWLS

HUMS

SNORES, CHIRPS

Bark chipperinos with mushy moss dip, anyone?

Oh, yes, please.

And I'm stuck. Never mind. Keep making the rounds.

I'm sure someone will scoop me out eventually.

This is all quite amazing.

I mean, that's a metal lion over there - a metal lion.

Yep. Isn't he something?

Ah! SHE LAUGHS

This one's a worm... that talks!

See? What did I tell you?

Getting out for a bit of exercise

can be great for experiencing new things.

And for finding lost children, of course. Of course.

Whoa there, Fluffybum, she said with a kind but firm tone.

Oh! Easy there, steed!

Ignore the winged insect! Ignore!

Ah! You're all under arrest

for displaying excessive amounts of joy and merriment.

Ah, just kidding. I'm not even a cop any more.

But if I was,

I'd arrest you for having an open fire in a wooded area.

That's genuinely a big no-no. I can't stress that enough, guys.

Oh, maybe a nice dandelion tea might help convince you

to let us off with a warning, perhaps.

Well, I guess I could turn a blind eye just this once.

I guess you've appealed to my... sappy side.

Get it?

LAUGHTER

You laughed without me even threatening you.

Oh, what a day!

Everyone! Everyone.

We just wanted to say a few things before we head back home.

You're leaving? I'm sorry, Rusty.

We have a home of our own. But we promise we'll visit.

We love you guys.

LUCY MOOS SADLY

We don't know how to thank you all enough.

Lucy is our family,

and you were willing to risk everything to help us find her

and, in the process, find ourselves.

Was that too cheesy? Yep. And I loved it.

Wait. So how are we gonna get back home?

Oh, there's that cannon back by Mudwiggle's place.

Erm, that's OK. I've actually organised a ride.

THUNDEROUS FOOTSTEPS

ALL: Woohoo!

Ooh. That's ominous.
