"(COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO)" "No, dude, my parents went to Europe and they sent us to Alaska to hang outwith my uncle." "It's fine." "Yeah, my uncle is a paleontologist." "He collects dinosaur bones." "I guess he's taking us to work with him." "Brad?" "Brad?" "Brad, are you there?" "Great, no signal." "Where are we going anyway?" "I'll give you a clue." "I got it in here somewhere." "Ah, there we go!" "Check it out." "What is it?" "That, my friend, is the tooth of a Gorgosaurus." "Cool!" "Isn't it?" "You know, it was almost as big as a T-Rex, but way faster." "They roamed the Earth millions of years ago and they got wiped out." "Their only living descendants are birds and blah, blah, blah." "Oh, come on, man." "You used to love dinosaurs, you were an expert." "This guy must have been really scary." "How do you think he lost his tooth?" "The Gorge?" "Yeah." "I wonder if he was in, like, a huge fight with a load of other dinosaurs." "My friend, Natalie, she ran into a flagpole at school and lost two teeth." "There was blood everywhere." "Yeah, a flagpole will do that." "Let's go!" "You sure you don't want to come?" "I'm not really into digging up dead things." "All right." "Well, stay close to the truck."

"I'm not offended about those things you said about my ancestors." "Totally cool with it." "You should see your ancestors." "Three words: u-g-ly."

"ALEX:" "Note the beautiful plumage... majestic wingspan, the classically curved beak." "Not to brag, but I am kind of the whole package." "Of course, if you're familiar with the Cretaceous Period, you probably know all of this." "Hmm." "Now watch closely." "This is a delicate operation, best left to the professionals." "Ah, the enticing smell of decay." "Look at this tartar build-up." "Mmm!" "Hey, watch it!" "(GROWLS)" "I'm telling you, it's hard out here for a bird!" "But enough about me."

"ALEX:" "Over the next few days, Patchi returned to the waterfall... for he had been bitten by the love bug, the tastiest bug of all." "But the lady proved to be elusive." "Not to be denied, the young lover pursued his passion nonetheless... once more returning to the sight of his glorious vision." "And he just kept coming back... really to the point of overkill, if you want my opinion." "Ah, man." "Where is she?" "Oh, didn't I tell you?" "She moved South." "South?" "When?" "Four or five days ago." "How long have you known this?" "About four or five days." "Gotcha!" "(SIGHS)" "ALEX:" "But Juniper and her family were headed" "South as part of the great migration... for the summer was coming to an end and food was in short supply." "Especially the bug supply, which is very, very important to me." "More than anything, Patchi wanted to follow Juniper... and his impatience was beginning to show." "The birds are going South."

"Gotcha!" "Seriously, you're a buffet on four legs." "And the herd lumbered South across the Alaskan hinterland..." "PATCH:" "Whoa, what do you mean, lumbered?" "ALEX:" "Well, you weren't exactly gallivanting." "PATCHI:" "Yeah, we're Pachyrhinosaurs." "We don't gallivant." "ALEX:" "No, you do not, but I have to warn you, every good story has a scary part and that's coming up, so get ready." "PATCHI:" "Oh, I'm ready." "I lived through it." "It was late afternoon and the clouds were gathering in the east." "ALEX:" "Okay, okay, let me tell it." "I have the flair." "The clouds gathered in the east." "Soon, a portent of approaching danger floated in upon the changing winds... a harbinger in the form of a glorious winged creature." "ALEX:" "Danger, danger, everyone!" "Warning, warning!" "Did you hear that, Dad?" "Danger." "SCOWLER:" "Of course he heard." "(ROARS)" "What'd I say, huh?" "PATCHY." "My father ordered the herd into the forest to find shelter from the storm." "(THUNDER RUMBLING)" "ALEX:" "The weather worsened, and my friend Patchi's young life... was about to change in a ﬂash." "I'm scared. (GASPS)" "I'm not scared." "You're the only one who's scared."

"I know you humans like to think you discovered fire... but trust me, it's been around since the time of the dinosaurs." "Patchi's father smelled trouble." "Quickly, he called to the others." "(ROARS)" "This was no time to dilly-dally." "Dad, what's going on?" "What is it, Alex'?" "It's fire!" "What's fire?" "Does it eat meat?" "!" "It eats everything." "Run!" "Go on!" "Move your meaty little legs!" "ALEX:" "Bulldust and his family hurried toward open ground." "But there was just one problem:" "predators."

"I'm louder." "Dad!" "Wait a minute, Scowler, I think I see him!" "Dad!" "He's coming back!" "That's definitely... not him." "Oh, boy, oh, boy, run, run, run!" "We should split up." "He'll only eat one of us." "The slower one, right?" "On second thought, we better stick together!" "Over here, under those logs!" "I think we lost him." "The smoke is disguising our scent." "PATCHI:" "Really?" "You think?" "His tongue touched me!" "I was literally on the tip of his tongue!" "Dad!" "I knew he'd come back for me!" "For us!" "You mean, us!" "Right, I said us." "Get him, Dad!" "Stomp his butt!" "Yeah, get him, Dad!" "Do you think he'll win?" "What are you talking about?" "!" "Dad always wins." "Always." "Right?" "I mean, he's got to." "ALEX:" "But this time, Bulldust, the great Pachyrhinosaur... the most feared and respected of his tribe... had met his match." "On that day, noble blood was spilled... while noble blood looked on." "It's gonna be okay." "It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay." "SCOWLER:" "Anyone out there?" "PATCHI:" "Can anyone hear us?" "Hello?" "Mom?" "Dad?" "Scowler, you see anything?" "Hello, anyone out there?" "Hello?" "Mom!" "Patchi." "Dad!" "Patchi, come on, we've gotta keep moving." "PATCHI:" "But what if they come back?" "I don't know." "They'll find us." "Gotta get to the herd, okay?" "Yeah, but Scowler, I'm just saying, what's the harm in waiting a little?" "I'm sure they'd do the same for us." "They're not coming back, okay?" "Hello, Mom?" "I'm not giving up." "Dad!" "Dad?" "!" "Aw, poor kid." "I wish I could help." "Hey, somebody's coming!" "Dad?" "It's Major!" "Major!" "PATCHI:" "Major, it's us!" "SCOWLER:" "Major!" "PATCHI:" "Oh, Major, I'm so happy to see you!" "It was crazy!" "There was this fire, then these mean psycho Gorges came out of nowhere." "But Dad fought them off and now he's gone..." "Oh, okay." "Geez." "Good talk." "Huh." "He seemed kind of busy." "I guess he's leader of the herd now." "Come on, follow me!" "Um, if he's the leader of the herd, why am I following you?" "SCOWLER: 'Cause I'm still the leader of you!" "Come on!" "All right." "I'm coming." "We've got to stick together." "It's just you and me now, all right?" "Pay attention, and watch your back." "Yeah, I got it." "Ooh!" "Sorry, ladies." "Sweet pond scum, it's her!" "She looks amazing." "Hey!" "Hey." "Over here!" "Juniper!" "It's me!" "Uh, the guy with the hole in his head?" "Hey, Patchi, you migrating with us now?" "PATCHI:" "I've been looking all over for you." "I went back to the waterfall so many times." "But it was weird, it was like you just disappear..." "Aw, come on!" "Oh, I see, playing hard to get." "Nice." "I feel ya." "Hey, Juniper, wait up!" "Wait for me!" "What're you doing?" "Who you talking to?" "Um, a friend." "A friend?" "Since when do you have friends?" "PATCHI:" "I have tons of friends." "Wait." "Hold on!" "It's a girl, isn't it?" "!" "(CHUCKLES)" "PATCH I:" "What?" "Patchi's got a girlfriend." "She's not my girlfriend." "ALEX:" "You might be crushing a little." "PATCHI:" "Whose side are you on, Alex?" "ALEX:" "My side." "SCOWLER:" "Admit it." "You're crushing hard." "PATCHI:" "Nope." "Am not." "SCOWLER:" "Give up!" "She's out of your league!" "ALEX:" "But Scowler's heckling was not Patchi's only problem... for the north wind had started to blow... revealing a musical side effect to Patchi's perforated head." "(WIND WHISTLING)" "What is that noise?" "Wait, is that me?" "Is my head whistling?" "Maybe nobody will notice." "Whoa, what was that?" "Ave, ya-ya, please turn that off." "(CHUCKLES) Are you okay?" "Yeah, just whistling out of my hole." "No biggie." "Told you you'd blow it." "Get it?" "Blow it." "JUNIPER:" "Patchi, is that sound really coming out of your head?" "SCOWLER:" "Uh, yeah it is." "Well, I think it's cool." "You're kidding, right?" "No, I'm not." "Hey, I wish my frill could whistle." "Yeah, I wish my tail rattled." "We could do a duet." "Ow, Scowler!" "Butt out, Scowler!" "She's my friend." "Shouldn't you ask her mom for permission?" "I don't need to get permission from her mom!" "JUNIPER:" "Patchi." "Unless, of course, she is standing right behind me." "Which she is!" "What a nice surprise!" "Hello, Mrs. Juniper's... mom." "Okay." "Bye, Patchi." "Bye-bye, then." "Good to see you." ""Good to see you"?" "Seriously?" "Worst migration, ever." "ALEX:" "The winter rains soon descended... casting a pall over the valley and all who dwelled within." "The continuous downpour soaked the ground and dampened spirits... leaving many in a very grumpy mood." "(SQUAWKS)" "We traveled days on end." "Soon, days turned into weeks, weeks turned into weekends... weekends turned into long weekends." "Well, you get the picture." "By and by, there we were." "Just a few short miles from the last mountain pass... on the way to the winter grounds." "Many creatures had made the arduous journey... not only by land, but on the wing... soaring high above the pastoral terrain." "BOY:" "Pterosaur, meaning winged lizard, carnivore." "ALEX:" "While the poor earthbound creatures plodded along... those of us blessed with certain aerodynamic qualities... could cover hundreds of miles in a single..." "Hey, watch it!" "I have the right of way here!" "(SCREAMS)" "You won't get away with this!" "You better watch your backs!" "I know some very unsavory people." "Sky hogs!" "As I was saying, there it was, the final mountain pass." "Also known as the Widow-maker, Dead Man's Canyon, Ambush Alley." "It had a lot of names." "Interesting sidebar for the scientifically-minded." "Did you know that the Pterosaur has no natural predators?" "PATCHY." "Are you sure about that?" "ALEX:" "Yes, of course." "I don't make this stuff up." "Fascinating creatures, you know, light enough to stay airborne... yet powerful enough to travel great distances without rest." "PATCHI:" "Really?" "And no natural predators?" "ALEX"." "Nope." "Not even one." "The Pterosaur lives a charmed life." "Uh-oh." "PATCHI:" "I think you might have just jinxed that guy, Alex." "ALEX:" "Sorry, boss, that's on me!" "Keep it real, buddy!" "Did I mention that the Pterosaur did have one natural predator... the Gorgosaurus." "GIRL:" "Gorgosaurus, meaning fierce lizard, carnivore." "ALEX:" "Nicely done." "But I think a little more is needed with this guy." "Allow me to elaborate." "Weighing in at nearly two and a half tons... the Gorgosaur measured roughly" "26 feet from the tip of his tail... to the top of his noggin, and if you like teeth, he's got teeth." "60 of them, and razor sharp." "Perfect for tearing through ﬂesh and splintering bones." "His powerful legs propel him to blazing speeds of up to... well, no one really knows, but he certainly was faster than you." "He was equipped with an uncanny sense of smell, razor sharp vision... and two tiny little arms." "He... (CHUCKLES)" "I'm sorry." "Seriously, I mean, what's up with that?" "I mean..." "Okay, sorry, wait." "I have to compose myself." "Okay." "The Gorgosaurus had a large brai... (CHUCKLES)" "I'm sorry, I can't take him seriously with those tiny little baby hands." "Look at him, he's so cute." "Okay, I'm sorry, sorry." "But make no mistake, despite his comically miniature arms... (CHUCKLES) he was a very good eater... ab!" "e to consume hundreds of pounds of meat in a single feeding." "I'll tell you what, you did not want to get on a Gorgosaur's bad side." "Oh, no, or on his insides, which was a distinct possibility." "Especially if you were a big galumphing double-wide herbivore." "(SNIFFING)" "And featured on the menu on this particular day... was Pachyrhinosaur Carpaccio with a garnish of sagebrush... and just a soupcon of wild asparagus." "Hey, Pachito!" "You feel like maybe getting some exercise today?" "What?" "Just got a strange feeling, that's all." "You might wanna do a little stretching, get those hamstrings nice and loose." "Just in case you decide to do some cardio." "Why would I be exercising when I walk 12 hours a day?" "Because you might live longer!" "Run away!" "Run away?" "!" "Away from what?" "!" "Where do I go?" "!" "It'd be helpful to know!" "Keep to the center of the herd, little bro!" "Safety in numbers!" "What's safe about this?" "!" "I almost got stepped on!" "See?" "!" "(SNARLING)" "ALEX:" "The Gorgosaurs enacted their plan with military precision." "Now these bad boys of the plains had it down." "They chased and harried their prey, causing panic... and introducing mayhem in their ranks." "PATCHI:" "You'd freak out too if they were chasing you, okay?" "ALEX:" "I'm not judging." "Juniper, this way!" "Mom, where are you?" "!" "I'm going with Patchi!" "PATCHI:" "Scowler, what are we doing?" "!" "What's happening?" "!" "SCOWLER:" "Don't worry, as long as we keep up with the herd, we'll be okay!" "ALEX:" "And here, the nasty Gorgosaurs separated the young and the weak from the herd." "Divide and conquer." "Gorgon practically invented it." "Patchi, what do we do?" "!" "Think happy thoughts!" "SCOWLER:" "Whatever happens, we have to remain calm!" "Remember, they can smell fear!" "Sorry, that's not fear." "Juniper, you okay?" "!" "I think I just stepped in some fear!" "They have us cornered!" "Truce, truce!" "Time out, time out!" "PATCHI:" "Okay, everybody, I got an idea." "Just back up and play it very cool." "Like, we don't even care, look at that nice stream over there, let's look at..." "Somebody help me!" "Juniper!" "Oh, no!" "Swim towards the shore!" "I'm trying." "I can't swim!" "PATCH I:" "Juniper needed my help." "With her mom stuck on the shore," "I suddenly realized what I had to do." "I had to dive in to save her." "(GRUNTING)" "ALEX"." "You dove in?" "PATCHY." "That's right." "That was a dive?" "Yeah, actually." "It was." "That was a dive, right there?" "Yeah, it was a dive." "Maybe we should look at that again." "(REWINDING)" "(GRUNTING)" "Yeah, there you are with a beautiful dive." "PATCHI:" "I'll have you know that was a reverse pike cannonball." "ALEX:" "I'll give you a 1.5 for degree of difficulty... and a perfect 10 for imagination." "PATCHI:" "Help, I can't swim!" "ALEX:" "Hang in there, Patchi!" "Whatever you do, try not to drown!" "I watched my friend helplessly as he was swept away into a watery grave." "PATCHY. "Grave"?" "I'm still alive." "ALEX:" "Come on, it's a figure of speech." "JUNIPER:" "Help, somebody!" "Help!" "Oh, thank goodness." "Oh, that was a close one." "Patchi!" "Over here!" "Hang on, Juniper!" "I'm coming to save you!" "Yeah!" "Oh, man!" "That was close." "I'm exhausted!" "SCOWLER:" "Whoa!" "Oh, my gosh!" "Whoa, that was scary!" "Oh, my gosh, guys, can you help me?" "No!" "Whoa!" "PATCHI:" "Thanks a lot, Scowler!" "Nice work!" "ALEX:" "Patchi and the others were carried off... by the swift and treacherous current." "Patchi!" "Where are you?" "!" "Patchi!" "I flew for what seemed like days... but I do tend to exaggerate, so, let's call it 10 minutes." "Then, as I searched for my dear friend Patchi..." "I was confronted by the specter of his bloated corpse... cast upon the sand like a lump of rotting ﬂesh." "A mere shadow of a..." "Gotcha!" "Hey!" "What gives?" "See?" "I knew you were faking." "That doesn't mean you can poke my eye out!" "Agree to disagree, okay?" "(SNEEZES)" "Oh, gross!" "Mmm." "But tasty." "Charge!" "Hey, where's Scowler going?" "Come on, guys." "Here's the way out!" "Oh, wait." "Hang on!" "Yeah, ocean." "I'll kick your salty butt." "Yup, that's my brother." "(JUNIPER GROANS)" "Ouch." "Come on, Juniper." "Easy does it." "Ouch." "Juniper!" "Are you okay?" "!" "Do not peck her eye out." "Okay, relax!" "Are you all right?" "What's wrong with your leg?" "Oh, it's just a scratch." "Mostly I'm starving." "I haven't eaten since yesterday." "Yeah, me neither." "(RUMBLING)" "Whoa!" "Was that your stomach?" "Uh, definitely not." "Look!" "(ROARING)" "What is that?" "!" "(SCOWLER HUMMING)" "Smack." "What's that?" "ALEX:" "Ah, yes, the mighty Edmontosaur. .." "Enormous in length, gargantuan in height... and his brain?" "Not so much." "PATCHY." "How big is your brain?" "ALEX:" "It's not a competition." "GIRL:" "Edmontosaurus, meaning lizard of Edmonton, herbivore." "Whoa." "Heads up!" "Look out, Patchi!" "They look hungry." "What if they want to eat us?" "JUNIPER:" "They don't eat meat, they eat very large trees." "I'm glad I'm not a tree." "JUNIPER:" "Patchi." "Come on!" "ALEX:" "For once, luck had smiled on our heroes... for within those enormous animals' minuscule brains was but one thought:" "food." "PATCHY." "What about a beverage?" "ALEX:" "Okay, two thoughts, well, three, if you want a side dish... but back to my original point." "It was a most fortuitous development, for as the ancient wisdom tells us:" "if you want to know where the food is, follow the fat guys." "You know what I was thinking?" "These guys are probably on their way to some feeding ground." "Maybe we should follow them." "I just said that!" "JUNIPER:" "Good idea, Patchi." "Thanks." "ALEX:" "Oh, sure, Patchi, take all the credit." "Hey!" "Mind if we join you?" "You won't even know we're here." "In fact, I don't think you do know we're here." "Do you?" "No?" "Patchi, check it out!" "You go left, you go right, you gotta be smarter than the herd..." "Ow!" "Move it or lose it, lard butt." "Ow." "Scowler!" "Eat my dust." "Again, not a race!" "Come on, June." "We gotta keep going." "Hey." "Juniper doesn't quit." "I'm going as fast as three and a half legs can take me." "How's the leg, Juniper?" "You need me to carry you?" "Nah, you know what?" "I'm just gonna park it here for a bit. (SIGHS)" "Oh, yeah." "Oh, uh, having a lie-down, yeah." "Sure." "Scowler!" "Wait up, Scowler!" "All right, so I guess we'll catch up with you... or something, later?" "Guys?" "(SCOFFS)" "Thanks for waiting!" "Save us some leafy greens!" "Patchi, you should go on ahead, I'll catch up." "What are you, crazy?" "I'm not going anywhere." "I'm gonna stay with you until you feel better." "Patchi!" "Now where are those laggards?" "Ah, I should have guessed." "Hey, I hate to horn in on your beautiful moment... but in case you haven't noticed, it's getting dark." "Juniper, um, we gotta get going." "Okay, I'll be over here." "I'm sorry to wake you, but, I don't know... the tide turned or something." "I don't really know much about tides." "But the point is, we need to find another way out." "Okay." "Good luck with that." "Okay, yeah, I can get us out of here." "Time to turn on my trailblazing skills." "Hey, Patchi, have you ever had that weird dream... where a bunch of crabs are crawling all over you?" "No." "You know, I've had the lobster dream but..." "Holy crab!" "Get them off!" "Here they come, they're swarming and I don't know if they're friendly!" "Ow!" "Hey, back off, shoo, shoo, get out of here!" "Oh, I see you like to dance." "So, what will it be, my briny friend?" "The mambo?" "(VOCALIZING)" "The salsa?" "Perhaps the deadly lambada?" "Tough guy, huh?" "Well, you've messed with the wrong..." "Ow, ow!" "Get it off!" "(LAUGHS) Look at them wiggle." "Wiggly-wiggly-woo." "That's right, you run away!" "You look so stupid!" "Oh, boy." "Incoming!" "What does that mean?" "Hey, new friends, where are you on the food chain?" "High, low, middle?" "Give us a ballpark..." "Run!" "It's okay, they don't want us!" "JUNIPER:" "Then what do they want?" "!" "The crabs!" "Ew, they just eat them whole?" "I guess they're purists." "Come on Juniper, follow me!" "I'm pretty sure it's this way." "Lead on, Patchi, but can we slow it down a tad?" "Still a little tender here." "Oh, yeah, of course, no problem." "ALEX:" "You see, Patchi was already becoming a leader." "A leader of one, but you gotta start somewhere." "The sun set for the last time on the western horizon... giving way to sister moon... who would now hold sway over the wintery Alaskan wilderness... piercing the darkness with her pale blue eyes." "Which simply means, it'll be dark in the Arctic for a very longtime." "PATCHI: (SHIVERS) Yikes!" "It's getting kinda chilly." "We should have brought layers." "Are you sure this is the right way to the feeding grounds?" "Of course I'm sure." "I got a knack for these kinds of things." "Besides, I've also got a foolproof Plan B and his name is Alex." "I hope there's a Plan C, 'cause I'm totally lost." "Did you hear that?" "We're lost in this horrible place." "It's just a normal forest full of normal foresty things." "What was that?" "(SCREECHING) (SCREAMS)" "That's not funny!" "Take it somewhere else, furball!" "You know, someday these mammals will go extinct... and then we'll have the last laugh." "Ha ha!" "You know, it isn't actually that bad out here." "Think about it:" "a dark creepy forest is really just an open field... with trees and different things in it." "You never know what you're gonna find." "Oops." "Watch the log." "Uh, not log, tail." "I hope it's not connected to this claw in any way." "Or that big toothy muzzle." "Oh, I can't bear to watch... but I will." "Careful, Patchi, don't make any sudden movements." "It's another kind of movement I'm worried about right now." "Okay." "I Nice little Gorgo on the treetop" "♪ While I climb over Please don't wake up I'" "Now, I suggest you slowly and gently... (SCREAMS) Run away, run away!" "What are you doing?" "Are you trying to get us eaten?" "No, I'm not trying to get us eaten." "I'm trying to get us out of here." "Anyway, he's probably hibernating." "He won't wake up till spring." "JUNIPER:" "Maybe we should be a bit more careful from now on." "Yeah." "From now on, I'm gonna be extra careful and keep it stealthy." "I'm gonna be like a ninja." "There are probably plenty of other things to worry about in these woods." "Totally." "Like, what other kind of things you think are out here?" "GIRL:" "Chirostenotes, meaning narrow-handed omnivore." "Oh, Don't worry." "This is kinda nice, right?" "Mmm-hmm." "Little moonlit stroll." "Sort of like a date." "Well, not like a date." "More like a hangout." "Like a friendly hang-sesh at night." "(BOTH GASP) (SCREECHING)" "Chirostenotes!" "Chiroste-nachos?" "!" "Notes!" "Whaties?" "!" "Hey, beat it!" "Note-ies." "Chirostenotes." "Enunciate!" "PATCHI:" "What kind of a name is that?" "A long one." "Get away!" "They give them crazy names, I would have called them skinny-neck pecky thingies." "JUNIPER:" "That's longer." "Maybe we should just focus." "PATCHI:" "A little hard to focus when they keep pecking!" "Patchi, they don't have any teeth!" "But I do!" "JUNIPER:" "Yeah!" "Got them good!" "Yeah!" "That's right!" "Who wants to get bit?" "You?" "!" "Back off, you skinny-neck pecky thing!" "PATCHI:" "Their feathers taste gross." "Take a hike, turkey bird!" "Keep it movin'." "What are you looking at?" "Better move on!" "Yeah, that's what I thought!" "(SCREECHING)" "And so should we!" "(ROARING)" "JUNIPER:" "Wow!" "Oh, good, you're seeing that, too?" "Just 'cause I thought it was that rancid pinecone I ate." "It's so beautiful." "X Oh, there's a river that runs on forever" "♪ I'm gonna see where it leads x Oh, there's a mountain that no man has mounted" "♪ I'm gonna stand on the peak" ":" "Out there's a land that time don't command" "♪ Wanna be the first to arrive" "♪ No time for pondering why I'm-a wandering x On while we're both still alive" "♪ To the ends of the earth, would you follow me" "♪ There's a world that was meant for our eyes to see" "♪ To the ends of the earth..." "JUNIPER:" "There they are!" "You did it!" "You found them!" "We found them." "(CHUCKLES)" "Come on!" "Race you to the bottom!" "JUNIPER:" "That's my herd!" "PATCHI: (LAUGHS) Slippery!" "JUNIPER:" "Look out below!" "Whoa!" "Wait up!" "Somebody got a second wind." "(LAUGHS)" "Let's go!" "PATCHI:" "Yeah!" "Full moon, cool!" "JUNIPER:" "Mom, Dad!" "We made it!" "Hey, everybody, it's us!" "We're back!" "JUNIPER:" "Incoming!" "Hi, Garry." "Looking good, Phyl..." "Whoa, Phyllis, watch the tail." "ALEX:" "Well, well, well, look who's trotting into camp." "Scowler, back after heroically abandoning his brother." "Greetings, my fickle friend." "Uh, Alex, bite me." "Mm, don't mind if I do." "(MUNCHING)" "Hey!" "Hey, hey!" "Hey, Stretch, get your own slimy rock." "Yeah." "♪ To the ends of the earth, would you follow me" "♪ There's a world that was meant for our eyes to see" "♪ To the ends of the earth, would you follow me" "♪ If you won't, I must say my goodbyes to thee I'" "All right, little swimmy thingies, I gotcha!" "Aw, man!" "What are you doing?" "They've gotta come up for air sometime." "SCOWLER:" "Hey, losers!" "(CHUCKLES)" "They looked." "Where you losers been, huh, Patchi?" "!" "PATCHI:" "What?" "!" "You left us behind." "You left me ahead." "That's ridiculous!" "You're ridiculous!" "No, you are ridiculous." "Uh-uh, you're ridiculous!" "You're ridiculous!" "(ICE CRACKS)" "Oh, so cold!" "ALEX:" "Eventually the sky, once shrouded in darkness for months on end... was brightened by the arrival of the sun." "(SQUAWKING)" "(SQUAWKS)" "(SHRIEKING)" "ALEX:" "The Alphadon came out of his hole and saw his shadow... and you know what that means: winter was over." "PATCHY." "I thought winter was over if he doesn't see his shadow." "ALEX:" "You know absolutely nothing about Alphadon Day." "PATCHY." "It was around that time that I noticed everybody was going South again... but this time in reverse." "ALEX:" "So North, in other words." "PATCHY." "Exactly." "ALEX:" "Fortunately, Major was there to give the word." "(ROARS)" "PATCHI:" "Am I wrong, or was that the same as the word for going south?" "ALEX:" "It's a very simple language." "As he began the return journey to his birthplace..." "Patchi reflected on the joys and heartaches of his first migration." "JUNIPER:" "Come on, Patchi." "Northward ho!" "SCOWLER:" "Yeah." "PATCHI:" "Let's get to the front, I'm tired of looking at people's butts all the time." "ALEX:" "Marching to a meter set down by the change of seasons..." "Patchi's herd traveled the same route year after year." "They journeyed South... then North... then South again." "I mean, seriously, what's wrong with West once in a while?" "Or East, even, just to spice things up, you know?" "Through it all, his load was lightened by the splendid bird that always had his back." "Patchi and I collected a lot of memories on those trips, and even more bugs." "Gotcha!" "I'm stuck." "I'm stuck." "(GRUNTS)" "Don't worry about me." "I'm fine." "No, I love you too." "Thanks a lot." "Yeah, I appreciate it, buddy." "But with each passing year and every migration..." "Patchi grew bigger and bigger and his hole grew larger and larger." "Hey, I told you one day his hole would be filled with greatness." "And here I am!" "Yes, my little friend Patchi was not so little anymore." "He had grown into a young adult... just in time for the annual courtship... when mature males vie for the affections of the females." "You know something, Patchi?" "I love the quality time we spend together, really." "But isn't it time you declared your intentions with Juniper?" "'Cause headbutting season has already begun." "(SCOFFS) I hate headbutting season." "It's like all the adults suddenly lose their minds." "With all the yelling and the snorting and the circling..." "ALEX:" "Don't forget the headbutting." "Yeah, and the headbutting." "It's so... prehistoric." "But it is how things are done." "What?" "What kind of things?" "I cannot interfere with matters of the heart, it is against my policy!" "Patchi loves you." "Huh?" "Patchi!" "I was afraid you weren't going to show up." "What?" "Of course I was." "And, wait, what am I showing up for again?" "(LAUGHS)" "The headbutting contest, silly." "Major is taking on all challengers." "Who would be dumb enough to challenge that guy?" "He's huge." "(ROARING)" "JUNIPER:" "And it looks like you're up." "What?" "!" "I should sit this one out, 'cause I just ate two huge berry bushes and..." "Step aside, Patchi." "(ROARS)" "Hey, Major, it's time you went head to head with a real Pachyrhinosaur!" "I'll tell you what:" "Scowler does not back down." "What's the big deal?" "I could do that!" "I've got 50 bugs on the big guy." "If you're just going to chit chat, I'm going to get a snack." "Hold my place." "ALEX:" "Ah, yes, the clash of the Pachyrhinosaurs." "One of the great spectacles of prehistoric pugilism. .." "Combining the grace of ballet with the stupidity of banging into things." "This was to be a very momentous contest... for it was on that day... that Scowler not only took on Major, the big boss of the Pachyrhinosaurs... but he defeated him." "And just like that, a new era was born." "(ROARING)" "Scowler was the new leader of the herd." "Yeah!" "Way to go, Scowler!" "Nice." "Good fight, Major." "Too bad someone had to lose." "That was you, by the way." "PATCHI:" "Man, that was epic." "Great job, buddy." "I'm not your buddy, I'm the leader of the herd now." "Show some respect." "But-but..." "Patchi!" "How was I supposed to know?" "Juniper where are you going?" "Sorry, Patchi, it's those stupid rules." "Law of the arctic, little bro." "You snooze, you lose." "But I didn't..." "I mean..." "Hold on." "How about a do-over?" "Huh?" "Best of three?" "I'm ready now, let's do it!" "We're not kids anymore!" "Come on, Juniper." "Move out!" "Oh, and Patchi..." "I know, I know, eat your dust." "ALEX:" "And the herd marched on, but this time with Scowler leading the way." "SCOWLER:" "Okay, this is Scowler's herd... and things are gonna be different around here from now on!" "Rule number one, all herd members will walk a minimum four feet behind Scowler!" "Rule number two, do not speak to Scowler without first being spoken to." "Rule number three, do not make direct eye contact with Scowler." "Rule number four, never question or contradict Scowler." "The first Thursday of every month will be known as Scowler Appreciation Day." "Suggested gifts include, but are not limited to..." "ALEX:" "As if Patchi's bruised ego wasn't bad enough... now he had a big old heap of heartbreak to go with it." "Hey!" "Hey, get out, you lousy squatter." "Cheer up, Patchi, it's not the end of the world." "That won't come for another couple years." "PATCHI:" "Leave me alone, would you?" "ALEX:" "You wanna talk about it?" "You wanna share?" "PATCH:" "Get off!" "ALEX:" "Okay, you're the boss!" "Besides Scowler." "Too soon?" "Too soon, sorry." "ALEX:" "The ice and snow had started to thaw, but Patchi's heart?" "Well, that was another matter." "Yep, these were tough times for our lumbering hero." "But as the saying goes, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade." "And when life puts your brother in charge and takes away the girl of your dreams..." "Well, that's-that's a tough one." "Let me get back to you on that." "JUNIPER:" "Way to go, Scowler." "Frozen water, always fun to walk on." "I wish Juniper would look back at me, just give me some sort of sign." "Hey, I don't remember coming this way." "Must be one of Scowler's shortcuts." "Hmm." "Come on, people, try to keep up here." "Whoa!" "I heard laughing, who's laughing?" "(ROARS)" "(GROANS)" "PATCHI:" "I can't believe we're on a frozen lake in the middle of spring." "(ICE CRACKING)" "Wait a minute." "We're on a frozen lake in the middle of spring?" "Juniper!" "Tell Scowler it's not safe!" "JUNIPER:" "He won't listen to me." "He won't listen to anybody." "(ROARS)" "Juniper, you have to believe me, we need to get off this ice!" "But Scowler's the herd leader." "We have to follow him, it's the rule." "Oh, no!" "I told you guys to pick up the pace!" "Come on!" "No retreating!" "ALEX"." "While Scowler blundered forward..." "Patchi knew he had to move the herd off the ice." "Everybody, back to shore!" "Turn back, everyone." "PATCHI:" "You guys, it's not safe!" "We need to turn back!" "Come on, little guy, I got you." "That's it." "PATCHI:" "Let's go!" "Everybody follow me!" "Everyone off the ice!" "On to shore, everybody!" "Just push in!" "JUNIPER:" "Patchi!" "What now?" "!" "There's too many of us!" "Okay." "Think!" "Um..." "Knock down the tree and feast on the leafy greens up top." "That's it!" "Follow me!" "This way!" "(BANGING)" "Keep moving!" "Push down the trees!" "Make a path!" "Take that, random tree!" "JUMPER'." "Whoa-how.!" "Good job, Patchi!" "(ROARS)" "Hey!" "He's taking my herd!" "Oh, so cold!" "ALEX:" "Patchi's quick thinking had saved the herd from a frigid fate... but not everyone was grateful for his heroics." "SCOWLER:" "Come on!" "Hey, who do you think you are, huh?" "!" "Boy, looks like Scowler's pretty mad, huh?" "We better just keep moving." "Hey, Patchi!" "Look at me!" "You can't just take my herd!" "That's not the way things are done!" "There's rules, you know!" "Come here!" "I didn't take them, all right, Scowler?" "I had to get them off the ice." "You're welcome to join us!" "Oh, don't worry, Patchi..." "I will find you wherever you go!" "And then we'll see what's up!" "Whatever you say, Scowler." "ALEX:" "The shadows grew long as the sun kissed the Western horizon... casting a ghostly glow over our fearless protagonist... and also on Patchi." "I hope Scowler wasn't serious back there." "He's probably just letting off steam." "He'll get over it." "SCOWLER:" "Surprise!" "Ha ha!" "So glad you're here, 'cause it's time to get down to business, Patchi!" "Okay." "He's not over it." "Just ignore him." "Let's keep going." "You're right, come on." "Hey, Patchi, where you off to in such a hurry, huh?" "(ROARS)" "Patchi, don't engage him, don't take the bait." "What do you want, Scowler?" "You stole my herd, you stole my girl and now you're gonna pay for it." "You crossed the line." "You crossed the line when you almost got everyone killed back there." "Tough talk for a little guy." "Let's see if you can back it up." "(ROARS)" "You can have the herd, but you're not taking Juniper." "You don't have to do this, Patchi, you don't have to fight him." "(ROARING)" "(CHIRPS)" "Last chance to walk away!" "What's it gonna be?" "This ends here!" "SCOWLER:" "Give up!" "Yeah, come on!" "Oh, you're tougher than I thought." "You want some more, Patch?" "That's what I thought." "And by the way, you're out of the herd." "Move out!" "JUNIPER:" "Patchi, are you all right?" "!" "Patchi?" "Okay, hang in there, I'm gonna help you." "(GROWLING)" "What are you doing, Juniper?" "I said move out." "You know the rules." "You can't just leave him like that, he's your brother." "I don't have a brother." "Now get back to the herd!" "Juniper, don't go." "ALEX:" "Well, this is the way it goes for some of us." "We try our best, we fight the good fight... and yet we cannot succeed against the greater forces." "Aye, poor Patchi." "Lying helpless with the weight of the world on his shoulders." "What could bring him back from the brink of despair?" "Well, that's what friends are for." "Patchi!" "(TAPPING)" "Patchi?" "Patchi, come on, you've got to get up, buddy." "Come on, Patchi, please." "Talk to me." "What is the problem?" "Are you hurt?" "How 'bout now?" "And what about this?" "Does that hurt?" "A little bit?" "Uh-oh." "Scavengers!" "Hey!" "Get out of here!" "Return to your home, nothing to see here!" "Go away!" "Shoo, shoo!" "Patchi, get up!" "PATCH:" "No." "This is where I belong." "Aw, Alex, what an idiot I was, trying to be the big man... thinking I could beat Scowler and be with Juniper." "No, my friend, you are confusing ambition with destiny!" "Now, I told you when you were little that you were going to be a hero!" "And an Alexornis never lies!" "Patchi, please, these guys aren't fooling around, okay?" "They're gonna have a dinner party and I'm telling you, you're the main course!" "PATCHI:" "Good." "Shame on you." "Imagine what your father, Bulldust, would say to that." "I don't care." "I have no reason to..." "Ouch!" "Okay, that hurt." "Uh-oh." "More customers." "Come on, move it, big guy!" "Alex, would you just go away?" "I don't want you to see this." "No, Patchi!" "Don't let this happen!" "Come on!" "Just get it over with." "Put me out of my misery." "Ow!" "Patchi... listen to me." "Do not die in vain." "If you're going to die, die for something like your father did." "He died for you." "But you have someone to live for." "PATCHY." "Juniper." "Juniper!" "Getup!" "(GROANING)" "Get up!" "Get up, Patchi!" "Get it off me!" "You are not a piece of meat." "I am not a piece of meat!" "Get outta here!" "(ROARING)" "I'm not afraid of you!" "I'm not afraid of anyone!" "Wow, that was something!" "What did you eat for breakfast?" "PATCHI:" "I ate a bush, if you must know." "I'm back!" "Yes!" "Look out!" "Pachyrhinosaur, on the move!" "Yes, Patchi, lumber!" "Lumber like the wind!" "What are you looking at?" "Scram, punks!" "Gotta get back, gotta get back." "Out of my way, skinny-neck pecky things!" "(PANTING)" "(SCREECHING)" "Yeah, right back at you!" "Gotta get back, gotta get back." "ALEX:" "What Patchi lacked in size, he made up for in courage." "For nothing would stop him." "Not this time." "I made it." "I made it." "Juniper!" "ALEX:" "He tracked along the fringes, looking for the one who was once lost to him... but who now had given him his new sense of purpose." "Hey, everybody!" "Has anyone seen Juniper?" "Anyone?" "Anyone." "Just a quick yes or no." "There she is!" "(ROARS)" "Juniper!" "Juniper!" "Excuse me!" "ALEX:" "Patchi's hardships were swept away by the vision of his true love." "His heart sang and his spirit soared, and at that moment... he would have walked through a thousand dinosaur butts... or even a million, if only to get to his beloved Juniper." "Patchi, you're okay!" "I was afraid I was never going to see you again." "Don't worry, you'll be seeing plenty more of me, because there's something I want to tell you." "Really?" "I'm just gonna say it." "Go on." "Because this is the right moment." "Say it!" "Juniper... (ROARING)" "Huh?" "What is it?" "Wait, what's going on?" "What's all the panic?" "ALEX:" "Patchi would soon realize that the herd had entered an all-too-familiar mountain pass." "Wait, I know this place." "Ambush Alley." "ALEX:" "Ambush alley, Dead Man's Canyon, Scowler's Folly." "That's a new name, by the way." "And you'll know why in a minute." "Patchi, the Gorges!" "We've gotta get out of here, now!" "(GRUNTING) PATCHI:" "Scowler?" "Scowler!" "Patchi, don't just stand there!" "Get out of here!" "Run!" "But you're my brother!" "We have to stick together!" "(ROARS)" "I meant, run away!" "I know what you meant." "Go on!" "Don't worry, I'm wearing them out!" "I'm not going anywhere!" "Patchi, save the herd!" "Lead them to safety!" "You don't owe me anything, little bro!" "Don't be a hero!" "What do I do?" "What do I do?" "Hang on, you guys!" "I'm going to give you some air support!" "Everybody look to the skies!" "Help is on the way!" "Hold on." "Bug break." "An army marches on its stomach, you know." "You know I'm right, Patchi." "I'm already a goner." "Take the herd away from here!" "Go while you still can!" "ALEX:" "Patchi." "Do not die in vain." "If you are going to die, die for something like your father did." "He died for you." "(ROARS)" "That's right, I'm talking to you, tiny arms." "Everyone, follow me!" "Come on!" "(GROANING)" "You messed with the wrong herd, lizard boy!" "You're about to get served!" "Told you!" "ALEX:" "Both sides battled ferociously... but the Pachyrhinosaurs had one thing the Gorgosaurs did not:" "A former runt with a hole in his head... and a lion in his heart." "But even the greatest of heroes... can sometimes benefit from a lucky break." "(SNAPS) (SCREECHING)" "That one's for my brother!" "And that one's for my dad!" "And this one..." "That's so you'll remember me!" "That's right, you heard me." "Get out of here!" "Name's Patchi!" "And I'll see you next winter!" "(ROARING)" "I don't believe it." "Patchi did it!" "I was distracted." "What happened?" "Did we win'?" "What happened?" "Payback." "That's what happened." "ALEX:" "I'm telling you, you can't make this stuff up." "After everything he'd been through," "Patchi's moment had finally arrived." "He was the undisputed leader of the herd... and nobody was prouder than me." "You hurt, Scowler?" "I'm okay." "Thanks." "You know, Patch, you didn't have to do that after... you know, what I did to you." "So I just wanted to say..." "(ROARS LOUDLY)" "I deserve that." "Guess this means you're the leader of the herd now." "So, you might as well go ahead and say it." "Really?" "Okay." "Well, let's move 'em out!" "SCOWLER:" "Sounds good." "PATCHI:" "Yeah, that felt pretty good." "Hey, Patchi, you were pretty great out there." "Yeah, you too." "Remind me never to headbutt with you." "Juniper, listen, it's time to talk about the future." "You mean the Cenozoic era?" "No, I mean the Patchi and Juniper era." "Oh, I think I'm gonna like the future." "ALEX:" "With the herd at his heels," "Patchi walked across the grasslands of Alaska... and into the future." "Which, as always, was full of surprises." "PATCHI:" "Excuse me?" "!" "Hi, there." "Can I help you find something?" "No'?" "You sure?" "Okay, then get out!" "(SHRIEKS)" "Go back to turkey town and stay out!" "Patchi, are you messing with the Troodons again?" "I thought I asked you to watch the eggs." "I am watching them, but they keep not doing anything." "I told you, it takes time." "You have to be patient." "PATCHI:" "I know, but we're talking about our whole future." "Why does the future always take so long to get here?" "JUNIPER:" "Shh!" "You hear that?" "It's time, Patchi." "This is it!"
