The world will be amazed.

I will be praised and loved.

This is...

(ECHOING) ..my absolute...

Thanks! I wanted to do something really special

for Seal and Mermaid before they leave.

It's fantastic! SEAL: Dear Friends,

I would like to say a few words... Oh! It's starting!

Where are Fox and Hare?

Oh! There you are! (CLEARS THROAT)

We'd better start cleaning right away.

Now? But we're having a party!

Yeah, a party without cake...

It stills tastes really good.

(GASPS) Wait!

BOTH: Surprise!

Very realistic. Although my boat is slightly bigger.

It's Hare's cake. But Fox helped.

How did you get it so moist?

Long story! (LAUGHTER)

Do you really have to go? Duty calls.

What is a Seal without the sea?

Yes... I can hear the sea calling!

But the sea is the other way, Mermaid.

Oh, yes, of course!

(GRUNTS) - Have a safe trip! - Off we go!

(BIKE BELL RINGING) TUSK: Don't be strangers!

Come back soon! We'll miss you!

A pirate doesn't say such things.

(YAWNING) Ah! Good night. Have a good night watch, Owl.

FOX: Yea, Owl, have a good night watch.

(YAWNING) What a party!

(YAWNING) Night-night, then, Hare. (CLEARS THROAT) Ahem!

What? Aren't you forgetting something?

(YAWNING) Oh, can't we do it tomorrow?

I see water!

What... What can we do about it?

We'll take care of it. Thanks, Owl!

No, not in here. I mean...

(LAUGH) I know, it's everywhere!

Don't worry, leave it to us.

No, listen to me...

It will be fine, Owl.

Just let us finish this. But, but, but...

Ooh! (QUIVERING)

What now?

(BIRD CAWS) I know! Tusk!

Hm, don't know, don't care.

(YAWNS) Goodnight, Hare.

Sleep well, Fox.

(PANTING, QUIVERING SOFTLY)

Oh-oh-oh.

Surely, there must be a simple explanation.

You will see, Hoohoo. Don't worry.

(YAWNING)

I didn't do... I haven't done anything!

Wha...? Ah... Wha...?

Oh. Must have been quite a downpour last night.

Is Owl up already? That's strange.

His bed hasn't been slept in.

Owl? Where is he?

(DISTANT BIRDS SQUAWKING)

(THUD!) Huh?

What's this? (PANICS) Where am I?

Aah! Aah!

Welcome.

Tusk? Tu-u-u-usk?!

(GASPING) What?

You are all muddy! Am I?

(PLEASED) Oh, I am!

Have you seen Owl? No.

Owl? Owl?

Owl? Where are you? Owly?

Hoohoo? Where are you? Owl?

Owl? (SPLASH!) Whoops, sorry.

Good morning, Ping Wing! Is Owl with you?

- (SURPRISED) No. - Why?

Let's keep looking. What... What... W-What's going on?

HA!(ALL GASP) Your money or your life!

I mean it!

Not now, Jack.

Have you seen Owl?

Maybe. Maybe not.

What's it worth to you?

(MUNCHING LOUDLY)

Shouldn't you have saved a piece for m...

for Owl? Is it far, Jack?

This is where I last saw him.

But look what I found after!

Come on. See!

(SURPRISED MUSIC) (ALL GASP) What's that?

Where's that lake come from?

Look! What are you...?

Hoohoo! Oh, no!

Then Owl must be somewhere out there.

On the water? But water scares him!

I will save him! For I am an EXCELLENT swimmer!

(PANTING, GROANING)

Uh... Perhaps a little later.

I didn't have breakfast yet.

Don't worry, Hoohoo.

Owl will be back in no time!

We have to look for Owl. But how?...

I know! With a boat.

I have a boat! Your boat's got a hole in it.

My boat is fine!(BELL RINGING) SEAL: Somebody need a boat?

What are you doing here? The road was blocked with water,

so we had to come back. Couldn't risk the merchandise to...

Never seen this lake before. Ooh!

Owl is missing! And he is somewhere out there!

We have to find him!

I'll look for him! Huh. (SPLASH!)

Ah! I love a lake.

Owl? Uh... Good try, Mermaid! Ha.

Have another go! Owl?

(SOFTLY) Not sure this is going to work...

No... Whoa! (SPLASH!)

But this might.

Ahoy! Operation Rescue Owl is underway!

Prepare the boat.

Take care, landlubbers!

Anchors away! Don't worry!

We'll be back as soon as we can. With Owl.

PING WING: Be careful!

Owl?

Owl? Oh.

Oh, hello, little friend!

Have you seen Owl? Ah!

(THUD!) Ow!

OK. So you look that way, we'll look this way.

Owl?!

Where could he be?

(GENTLE PIANO MUSIC PLAYS IN BACKGROUND)

So you haven't said anything

about how fantastic you think my Lodge is. Ha.

In fact, you haven't said anything at all!

But I can understand, this must all be a lot to take in.

If I think how great I am...

I become speechless, too!

(SCARED VOICE) W-Where's Hoohoo?

Where are my friends?

Friends? Friends, you say.

Hm. Rats!

BOTH: Pi-rats!... (WHISPERING) Already told him...

Go and find Owl's, hm... "friends" -

whatever they are -

a-and bring them here immediately! We can do that, can't we?

Ah, yeah, I love a mission, I do. (CHUCKLES)

The more admirers, the better!

(DISTANT BIRDS SQUAWKING)

Oof! This lake is so big!

(SIGHS) Oof... Don't worry, Hare.

Captain Fox will save the day!

(SCEPTICAL) Oh, yeah? How?

Well... uh... I just... um...

We, um... (BOAT HORN HONKING) Ah! You see?!

Hey! Hey! He-e-e-ey!

We're not rats! We're Pi-rats!

Hello! Um.. I am captain Fox!

Did you see an owl...

called... well, Owl?

Yeah, your owl called Owl is with us!

Yeah, he's with us. So what?

He is? Oh! What a relief!

Are you his... 'friends', then? Yeah, his 'friends'.

(SIGHS IN RELIEF)

Phew, what a morning!

Gives me the hot flushes!

(SIGHS) I hope they will be back soon.

Aah! Me swag bag! (GRUNTING)

Ooh! Jack! Come back!

We have to stop the water. Or it will flood the forest.

I'll fix that!

(STRAINED GRUNTING) (SPLASH!)

See? I am an excellent fixer.

Uh... Tusk...

Ooh! Maybe not. Oh!

Our houses! We have to check if they're OK!

We have to hurry. We need to build a dyke.

Now. A dyke?! A what?

A wall of dirt that will keep the water out.

Fortunately, I've just picked up a bunch of shovels dirt cheap.

You can have 'em at a nice little discount.

(ENTHUSIASTICALLY) Ooh! I am an EXCELLENT shoveller.

(SQUAWKS SOFTLY)

No water here.

Jack? Jack?!

(GASPS) Oh, no.

Hare's stuff will get all wet.

She won't like that...

Get in there. (LAUGHS) Good thinking, Jack!

Put everything on the table, so it won't get wet.

A-a-a-ah! Owl! Oh... oh...

Aw, that's cute. Don't cry.

What happened to you, Owl?

I ran through the forest, and, suddenly,

there was all this water and...

oh, Hoohoo! Have you seen Hoohoo?

Hoohoo is safe at home.

What is all this?

I'm not a pirate. I'm a thief.

Uh... Sorry, guys.

Uh... Bit busy here. Maybe some other time.

Right, what about you, then, Prickly - Pig? - Yeah, what about you, eh?

(PANTING) Can't. Have to save the forest.

By moving dirt? Shifting dirt about?

By building a dyke. All alone.

A dyke?(SNIGGERS) "A dyke," he says.

That ain't no dyke, mate, my muscled friend!

Good muscles, though. Yeah, good muscles.

My dyke is exactly the way it should be.

Yeah, but isn't a dyke... - ...Meant to stop the water? - Yes.

Well, we can help. Yeah, we can help!

Yeah! All about them. Yeah! All about building them.

Right, just give me some of - that sand here. - That...

That's... Stick that in that hole. - Yeah, that looks good. - Looks good.

No, thank you. Anyone could make that.

I am building something...

different.

Different?! Different is not going to stop the water, Prickly Pig.

No, it's not going to stop the water.

But your muscles, together with our brains, will!

Yeah! Our brains, yeah! Ah, no, thanks.

My muscles know everything - they need to know! - Come on.

Together, we'll build that dyke in no time!

Yeah! No time at all! And then, you can come with us!

Yeah, you can come with us. It's great where we're going.

Come on, we'll make a great team! Yeah! Great team!

I am an EXCELLENT shoveller, and I can do it all alone!

OK, prickly pig. OK, have it your way.

Let us know if you wanna change - your mind. - Yeah, let us know.

It's all going to be fine... because I can fly!

Ungrateful lot. Just you wait.

I'll make this place so, so, so much fun,

no one will ever wanna leave again.

Ooh...

maybe that was one sorbet too many.

(BIRDS SQUAWKING) You made the right choice, dear Fox.

Oh, great! What shall we do now?

Want to see my masterpiece...

up close?

Ho-o-o-o... masterpiece?

(BIRDS CAWING)

So... oh, this... this is it, is it? This is... This is your masterpiece?

Extraordinary, isn't it?

The water of the creek can't flow away because of the dam.

And that is what created - this glorious lake. - Oh.

OK. Uh... Never mind.

After all, we cannot all be geniuses, now, can we?

Um... Shall we go and play in the Lodge?

PLAY?! No, no, no...

I am going to do some more great inventing.

You... You go and enjoy yourself.

What are you doing here? This room is off limits, my friend.

No guests allowed.

Our forest is completely flooded.

Well, obviously.

But you said it would be fine! Well, it is fine.

I see a great lake and a wonderful lodge.

I see a genius Beaver who offers

to share his tremendous glory with you.

If all of that is not fine, I don't know what is.

But what about our forest? What about the den?

Our den is the most important thing to Hare.

(GASPS) The flooding is caused by the Dam!

You need to it take down. - Immediately! - Take it down?!

Yes! So the water can flow away

and the lake will go down! Then, we can save the forest.

You want ME to take down my life's work?

So everything that I have built will be destroyed?

But you destroyed our forest! Silence.

This is non-negotiable.

I want to go to Hare. I want to go back to the forest.

You decided to stay here. I need to go and see my friends!

Your friends? Well.. what about your friends?!

What... What good are your friends?!

I thought I was your friend!

I have everything to offer! They have literally nothing!

Everything they have is under water!

(SAD MUSIC)

(DOOR WHOOSHES OPEN)

The water won't hurt us, Hoohoo.

We are perfectly safe.

(WHISPERS) I can fly. I can fly.

Perhaps we can just stay here.

(CRYING) I wanted to save the forest!

But I couldn't. I wasn't good enough.

(CRIES)

I tried my best.

And I am such a good digger, but I couldn't dig enough,

and now, everything is under water! (CRIES)

Oh, we'll be fine...

won't we, Hare?

We could make it work.

We can't stay here.

But we ain't got no boat.

(SIGHS)

TUSK: We are stuck up here forever.

Oh, Fox... I could really use one of your crazy ideas now.

What would you do?

OK. Uh... You're right. Uh... Y-You are my friend.

So, um... shall we play a game?

Why? Because that's what friends do.

They do?

Well... what do you want to play? Swim? Waterpolo?

Jetski? Um... Hide and seek!

What?! That isn't even a water game.

You hide, and I seek! I bet...

you're really good at hide and seek.

Well... you know...

I mean, this place is massive, and it's yours,

and you know everything. Oh, please.

And it will be really difficult for me to find you!

Well... OK, then.

Right.

One, two...

three, four...

I have to destroy that dam!

We may not have a boat...

but we can build one!

I mean, I've got the tools,

but I ain't got any wood.

We have all of this!

Not your stuff! Uh-huh.

It will get all wet! It will be ruined!

I know. But it'll be worth it.

(ALL GRUNTING)

Catch! Got it!

Mm...

(DETERMINED MUSIC)

(SAD BUT DETERMINED) OK, then...

(BOTH STRAINING)

Great boat, Hare.

(GRUNTS) Yes! Let's go.

This way!

OWL: You're the lookout, Hoohoo.

Beaver! Beaver!

Where are you?!

Oh, where could he be?

He is such a good hider, that beaver.

In fact, the best hider I think I've ever seen!

(CHUCKLES)

(STRAINING)

Oh! AH!

OK!

(STRAINING)

Oh! (SIGHS)

(STRAINING) Oh!

Uh!

(SPLASH!) So... that's one. (BOAT APPROACHING)

Hee! (RATS ARGUING)

I don't want a new one! I want the old one!

- What? - I said, I- Da-da-da!

- ...don't want a new one. - Look, sh! - - Sh! - I want an old one. - No, look!

Look, what? Oh!

(STRAINED GRUNTING) (DISTANT BIRDS CALLING)

Land ahoy! (GASPS)

Oh! Fox!

Huh?

Oh, oh, ooh! Oh, Foxy! Oh, oh! (LAUGHS)

Hi, Tusk. I missed you, too.

Ooh! Hi, Hare!

Hare I... I want to come home with you.

There is no home anymore. Yes, I know!

That is why I'm trying to destroy the dam!

Ooh, let me do it! I am an EXCELLENT destroyer!

(STRAINING)

I thought you loved it here.

(CONTINUED STRAINING) (BOAT APPROACHING)

What are you doing?

You want to destroy my dam!

I invited you into my lodge.

I shared my greatness.

I even played that stupid game with you.

And this is how you THANK me? But...

Did you really think you could take on this genius

and DESTROY MY MASTERPIECE?

But we have to safe the forest!

Oh. But there are so many forests.

And a genius dam like this? THERE'S ONLY ONE!

This is what happens when you mess with the Beaver.

(ALL EXCLAIMING)

(DOOR CREAKS, CLUNKS CLOSED)

I am very, very disappointed.

(DOOR LOCK CLICKS)

(STRAINING)

Aye, prickly pig, that'll never work.(LAUGHING)

That's never gonna work. No way!

Ooh! (GRUNTING, PANTING)

(SCREECH!) (HISS!) Ooh, ah! (EXCLAIMING)

Look at that! (LAUGHTER)

Ooh!(HISS!) (SNIGGERING) You're welcome.

Yeah, you're welcome. Stupid rats.

But we don't have to stay here forever, do we, Hare?

That would be very bad for business.

I can't live in a box!

Not even a big box.

I am sorry.

So now you're sorry.

But... Leave... me... alone!

...at least, we're together.

I miss my tree.

I miss my mud.

I miss my mermaid.

(SOFT GUITAR MUSIC)

MERMAID: Owl?

Owl?

Seal? Fox?

Hare? Where is everyone?!

Oh, come on. guys! Cheer up!

There are still so many good things. (SULKING) Like what?

Well...

like the memories of all the good times that we shared...

all the laughs that we had...

OWL: How can that help us now?

Well... remember when we all gave you Hoohoo

as a birthday present?

(SIGHS) That was one of the best days ever!

And when YOU won the Yearly Forest Sport Competition.

Well... (CHUCKLES) ...I am an EXCELLENT sporter.

You are! And Ping Wing,

remember when you had a sunstroke and-

(GASPS) you brought me ice creams to cool me down!

And I made you a drawing of an iceberg!

Quite good fun for prisoners. - Had a good laugh. - Keep 'em locked up!

That was very uplifting, Fox.

Yes... But still...

I don't wanna stay here.

I need to see the stars at night!

Me, too. Wanna roll in the dirt.

Why would we leave? We have no place to go.

We'll find a new place!

And I'll build a new den for you.

Much nicer than our old den.

We just need to stick together.

Huh.

That's it! It is?

We can dig a tunnel.

All the way to the dam.

And escape on the raft!

Oh, yes! Can I? Can I? Can...?

I am an EXCELLENT digger!

Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah... We have to be careful.

Beaver might be watching us.

BEAVER: I promoted you from sewer rats

to respectable water rats.

All completely selfless

without asking for anything in return.

Hang on... we did help you build that dam.

Yeah, there was the dam. And the Lodge. I've still got the blisters.

Yeah! He's got the blisters! I've got the blisters as well.

You should be grateful for the opportunity

to be part of MY MASTERPIECE.

Oh... here we go. Delusions of grandeur.

We need to distract Beaver...

OWL: I'll do it.

Oh, Owl, are you sure?

Yes, I am.

See you on the other side!

Beaver! Beaver!

(As EACH BALL HITS HEAD) Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

Just as I thought.

The pool room. We're getting closer!

(DISTANT RUMBLING) Do you hear that?

(SIGHS) It's coming from outside.

(SOFTLY) Watch it! (SOFTLY) Stay down!

What did you say?

Um... Watch it... Um...

Yeah, because, uh... that sound...

sounds really suspicious. Yeah...

- Yeah. - Yeah. - So, yeah, be careful. - Hm.

Did they see you?

Wha-a-a-at?!

Oh, no! Beaver's bound to have heard that!

Oh, my muscles... are all confused.

They don't know the way to go.

Well, perhaps they just need a little bit of help, Prickly Pig.

Yeah, bit of help from some rats! - Pi-rats! - Yeah.

Why would you help us?

We offered to help before, didn't we, Prickly Pig?

Yeah, 'course we did! Remember, with - your dyke? - Yeah! With your dyke!

But if you don't need our help...

No, if you don't want-You know, we know when we're not wanted...

(SHEEPISHLY) Can you help? Please? Sure!

Prickly Pig, of course, we can help. Why didn't you ask before?!

He should've just asked, shouldn't he?

(PANTING)

Oh! No-o-o-o!

(GRUNTS, SIGHS LOUDLY)

(STRAINED GRUNTING)

(GNAWING)

Wait! What did I tell you? Oh, no, he's coming!

Hurry! Run!

We have to lift the platform!...

Um... Oh, which lever was it? TUSK: Hurry!

Beaver is getting closer.

(PLATFORM RUMBLES) That's it!

What happened!?! Why did it stop?

(LAUGHS)

(SIGHS) What now?

PING WING: There's plenty more where that came from!

Right in the kisser!

Yeah! Bull's eye! (ALL GRUNTING)

Ha! Ho-doh! Ho! Hi-ya-a-a-ah!

How do we get out!?! Ah! I've got it!

Oi! Where did you get that water gun?

Yeah, where did you get that gun? - Tusk! - He's gone and nicked it.

We have to dislodge the railing! (STRAINED GRUNTING)

We're running out of stuff to throw!

Yah!

Great! Now put it down over there!

Oh, you clever...! A bridge to the waterslide!

Hare, you are a genius!

(PANTING)

I'm coming to get you! Wo-o-o-ow!

(SPLASH!)

He's not very good at hide and seek, is he?

(ALL LAUGH)

Wa-a-a-ah!

It's still too far up. How do we get there?

JACK: Don't touch that! That's my rope! I stole it fair and square.

Where are they?

(ALL PANTING, GRUNTING)

Ah, it won't stick!

MERMAID: Got it! Woo-hoo!

- Owl! - Mermaid! (GASPS)

(PANTING) I have to find them.

They've got to be here somewhere.

(ALL HUFFING)

Jack, is this the rope I used to tie up our raft?

(LAUGHS)

Oh, no!

It's too far to swim. The speedboat!

RAT: There's too many of us!

Way too many of us. We have to try!

The boat won't hold!

No way that's going to hold!

More gas! Hit the turbo!

OK. Um... This button?

(MERMAID EXCLAIMS) No, the other button!

No, not that one. We never push that button.

TUSK: Let me try. I am EXCELLENT with machines!

(ALL SCREAMING)

(CRASH!)

(ALL GASPING, PANTING, GROANING)

Ooh! Hm. Uh.

(BUBBLING) (SOFT RUMBLING)

(BOTH GASP) (DETERMINED BRASS MUSIC)

So, you were leaving without saying goodbye?

(ALL QUIVERING) Beaver, please...

Let them go! I'll stay with you! I'll do whatever you want.

And tell you how great you are, every day.

If you stay, I'll stay, too.

(SOFTLY) I am not leaving you again...

No, Hare! Go and find a dry spot.

Build a nice new den, a den that you'll love like your old den.

I know that your den is the most important thing to you.

Oh, Fox.

The most important thing to me is you.

(TENDER MUSIC)

All of you. I'm staying.

Aw! OWL: I'll stay.

Me, too! - I'll stay, too! - Me, too!

If the prickly pig stays, then we're gonna stay, too.

Yeah, we love the prickly pig,. We're staying.

So... you're willing to give up everything

for a miserable life in captivity?

Under my terrifying, yet admirable power?

But why?

Because...

Because we have something stronger.

Friendship. ALL: That's right. Yes, we are... we are all friends.

We are friends. That's what we are. I see.

(ALL GASP) (BOAT WHINNIES LIKE A HORSE)

(ALL SCREAM) (DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(CHUCKLES)

(LAUGHS)

I bet you didn't see that one coming, huh?

Why did you do that?

Ah, well...

because I realised... by looking at you all...

I understand now that...

(SIGHS) ...OK, what I want to say is...

I thought that being admired was great.

But it must be much greater... to have friends.

- - Ah. - Oh. - Love you, Beaver. - That's true. - That's lovely.

BEAVER: Well... so long!

Here, Boss, wait! Wait a minute. Yeah, hang on, Boss!

We can't leave him like that, can we? We'll come with you, Boss.

Yeah, no, we'll come with you cos, after all, we like water.

You know, like you do, Boss. Yeah, we quite like you, really.

No... No more boss-stuff.

We're friends.

Wait! I have an idea.

Why don't you come with us? (GASPS)

Our forest is big enough! (CHUCKLES)

We even have a small lake where you can live.

Near us! Your new friends.

Yes!

(SNIFFLES) Friends?

O-O-O-Oh...

(CHUCKLES) ...of course! My new friend!

(ALL CHEERING, LAUGHING)

Let's go home!

Ooh!

Ah!

Ah, home sweet home.

Look at all the dirt!

(SIGHS IN RELIEF)

Hm. Hm. Hm.

(BEAVER GNAWING)

Oh, look at that. Perfect fit, thanks.

RAT: Yeah, that looks good, that. Mermaid! We're ready.

Let's go. (WHISTLES)

Come on.

(JACK SNIGGERS) Oh... Oh, Jack!

What the...?!

O-O-O-Oh! (BIKE BELL RINGING)

(SIGHS) There!

Now, don't worry.

We're all safe and snug now.

FOX: Hi, Seal!

Just wanted to drop off some things before we hit home.

It's on the house.

Oh, thank you, Seal!

We have something for you as well.

I made them myself.

Do you... like them?

I love them!
