"Sun, sand, and surf!" "What more do you need?" "Survival gear." "Butterfly net." "Number 2 pencil." "Number 3 pencil." "My guitar-dion." "(grunting) Just the bare necessities." "(chuckles, sighs)" "And, of course, my Go-Pack!" "After we set up camp, do you girls want to come hiking with us?" "The view from the top of Mount Ophidia is breathtaking." "(chuckles) Thanks, Abuela, but we've got other plans." "♪♪ Tropical music... ♪♪" "♪♪" "All right, Isabel!" "Your turn." "Just a second!" "I'm calculating the best dive angle for a smooth entry." "Isa, the best way to learn how to dive is just to dive!" "Princess Isabel, you should know that besides being a royal guard," "I'm also a certified lifeguard, so you have nothing to fear..." "Gabe is here." "Aw, a gecko!" "Gecko?" "Aah!" "Oh, don't be afraid, little buddy." "Nobody's going to hurt you." "(coughing) I'm okay!" "Everything's okay!" "I-I Just pretend you didn't see that." "See what?" "How you nearly mowed down Isabel to escape a tiny little lizard?" "For the record, I'm not afraid of anything... except lizards." "Oh!" "What was that?" "!" "Oh, hey, there's a message inside." "I can't believe we found an actual message in a bottle!" "Oh, it looks like a page from someone's diary." "Listen. "After years of searching", at last I have found the hidden temple." "Inside could be the greatest treasure" "I've ever discovered." ""Antonio Agama."" "Antonio Agama?" "He's one of my all-time heroes." "He's an Avalorn explorer who sailed all over the world having adventures, finding lost treasures, until he set off to search for a priceless statue called the Golden Gecko." "He was never heard from again." "Until now!" "Keep reading." ""The legend says those who try"" "to take the statue will be cursed, but I've come too far to turn back," ""even if it means..."" "Means what?" "I don't know." "The ink is smeared." "Hey, there's something on the back." "It's a map... of this island!" "(chuckles) Antonio Agama's here!" "He must've thrown the bottle into the ocean, but the tides brought it back." "If he tried sending a message in a bottle, he must be in trouble somewhere on this island!" "We have to find him." "Wait!" "First we need to change and get supplies." "Okay, but let's make it quick." "Ready." "Let's go!" "But I'm still packing!" "We're going on a rescue mission, not a camping trip." "I know, but it's always good to be prepared." "This book is all about Ophidian Island." "Okay, Isa, let's get going." "Whoo!" "Come on, Isabel!" "Ugh..." "Whoo-hoo!" "(sighs)" "(snoring)" "Whoa!" "Finally." "(startles) I'm awake." "I'm awake." "Come on!" "GABE:" "That's Antonio Agama's crest!" "It must be his boat!" "Come on!" "He's not here." "Look at these paw prints." "They're huge!" "Huh." "They lead outside." "What kind of animal do you think made them?" "Well... they look like gecko prints." "A gecko?" "But geckos are tiny." "I know, it doesn't make sense." "This can't be a gecko." "Then what made these tracks?" "I don't know, but it was in the boat." "Maybe it took Seor Agama." "Elena, wait!" "Elena, slow down!" "What is it?" "We have no idea what this creature is." "We shouldn't just rush after it." "Did you see that?" "See what?" "Stay here." "Huh, I guess it was nothing." "(slurp)" "Ooh!" "Run!" "It's a g-g-gecko!" "Gabe, they're just tiny little liz... ards." "(chitters)" "Gabe's right." "We should run!" "Go, go, go!" "GABE:" "It's a gecko!" "It's a gecko!" "It's a big, big gecko!" "(panting)" "Hey, I think we lost him!" "Are you sure?" " Isa, stop!" " (gasps)" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Whoa." "Oh!" "That was close." " (crumbling)" " Isa!" "GECKO:" "Booyah." "(gasps) Isabel?" "(chitters)" "Get back, you scaly monster!" "Quick!" "Hide in this tent." "Gabe, wait!" "(gasps) Seor Agama's crest." "(gasps)" "The gecko saved her." "Yeah, because he wants to eat her!" "Stop!" "That's Antonio Agama!" "He was turned into a giant gecko!" "(squeals) Uh-hmm." "Well, how do you know that?" "I found his journal." "Listen to what Seor Agama wrote." ""The Ophidians warned that anyone"" "who dared to take the Golden Gecko statue would fall under a curse and be turned into a gecko, but I am certain that it's just a story to keep people away." "Tomorrow I will descend into the temple" ""and find the statue."" "So, you're Seor Agama?" "Mm-hmm." "Is there any way to undo the curse?" "(affirmative grunts)" "ELENA:" "We have to go down there?" "Mm-hmm." "It looks dangerous." "You two stay here." "I'll go." " No way I'm letting you go alone." " Me neither!" "Even if we all go, how are we supposed to get down there?" "It's a sheer drop!" "Nyah!" "Perfect!" "We'll lower ourselves in the basket!" "I'll grab a torch." "Great!" "Let's go!" "You coming, Seor Agama?" "Mm-hmm." "Oh, right!" "(chuckles) He's a gecko." "It looks like we just pull this rope." "Great!" "Let's break this curse!" "(grunting) Oh!" "It's stuck." "(clanking)" "(screaming)" "Aah!" "Sorry." "It says, "The Ophidians worshipped lizards", especially the gecko, and built hidden monuments on their islands dedicated to the..." ""Majesty of the gecko!"" "ALL:" "Whoa." "Aah!" "Seor Agama, if you weren't my all-time hero," "I'd really be freaking out right now." "Uh, Gabe." "Right." "So, which way do we go?" "Seor Agama, you've been here before." " (purrs)" " Which way did you go?" "Yep." "Nyah." "Come on, let's pick up the pace." "Elena, slow down!" "The Ophidians booby-trapped their temples." "If you step in the wrong place or touch the wrong thing, we could get trapped..." "or worse!" "Don't worry, Isa." "Seor Agama made it through before." "I'm just stepping where he stepped." "So it'll be fine... (rumbling)" "GABE:" "Or not." "Psh, some booby trap." "Didn't even come close!" " Huh?" " Fall back!" "Fall back!" "(screaming)" "Elena, I told you to slow down!" "How am I supposed to know where every booby trap is?" "Let's just be more careful." "I will, Isa." "Okay, ready to keep moving?" "Ready to set off another booby trap?" "Oh, Gabe." " ISABEL:" "Aah!" " GABE:" "What's happening?" "Nothing good." " (all startle)" " ISABEL:" "It's retracting!" "(gecko chittering)" "(grunts) It won't budge!" "We need a key." "Isa, what are you doing?" "This is an Ophidian color pattern puzzle." "We need to solve it to find the key that unlocks the door." "Or we could just try each one." "No, wait!" "(gear ratcheting)" "Uh, it's moving faster." "You pulled the wrong key!" "Can you solve the puzzle?" "I think so." "Just hurry!" "Green, red, blue, blue." "Green, red..." " I got it!" " Great!" "It's shifting pairs!" "But I better double check." " What?" "There's no time to double check!" " Green, red..." "Yup, that green one should be red!" "That's the key!" "Oh, no!" " Oh, no, what?" " It's that one!" "That one?" "But we can't..." "Ugh!" "What are we gonna do now?" "Hey, Isa, can I see that book?" "Hmm." "Ugh!" "(all quavering)" "Oh, no, no, no." "(thuds to a stop)" "(all sigh in relief)" " (purring)" " Okay." "Okay." "No, really." "Quit it." "But we still can't open the door." "Why didn't Isabel just grab the key when she had the chance?" "There has to be another way out of here." "The Ophidians built secret tunnels so they could get around without triggering their own traps, but it's too dark to see anything." "Here." " ISABEL:" "Look!" " How do we get down there?" "Isabel, you've got some rope in your Go-Pack, right?" "Of course." "(impact grunts)" "Watch out!" "The floor caved in." "What do we do now?" "It's not too far." "We can jump it!" "(grunting)" "See?" "Come on!" " (impact grunt)" " Isabel." "I better calculate how far it is first to make sure I can jump it." "Of course you can make it!" "Ugh." "(grunts)" "Here, we'll jump together!" "Fine." "But I still think I should calc..." " Jump!" " (impact grunts)" "(cracking)" "Oh, no." "Here we go again!" "Whoa!" "(coughing)" "Is everybody okay?" "(others coughing)" " Uh-huh." " We're fine." "Isa, why didn't you just jump the first time I told you?" "I wanted to make sure I could clear it." "Sometimes you just gotta trust yourself and go for it." "Hey, guys, look!" "Whoa!" "ELENA:" "This must be the heart of the temple." "GABE:" "What's he trying to tell us?" "There must be something in there." " I'll check it out!" " Elena, wait!" "The floor might be booby trapped." "(purrs)" "I guess it wasn't." "It's the Golden Gecko statue!" "(chittering)" "Oh, you can't reach it." "Uh-uh." "Hang on." "Unh!" "Almost... there!" "Got it!" "It needs to go back up on the pedestal?" "Yah!" "Hey, I know how to reverse the curse!" "(thud, gears whirring)" "Uhh... (all quavering)" "Isa, get out of here!" "But what if I step on another booby trap?" " Run!" " Isabel!" "Gabe!" "Uh... oh..." "(both screaming)" "Uh, oh!" "We're trapped!" "Just great!" "Everything is crumbling around here except this wall!" "I told you there could be booby traps!" "If you had just taken your time, you wouldn't have set them off." "Isa, it was an accident." "Well, you wouldn't have so many accidents if you weren't always in a hurry, you know, leaping before you look." "It's better than stopping and double-checking every single little thing." "It's been slowing us down all day, and it's the reason we're stuck in here." "Hmph!" "(Sniffling)" "(sighs) Isa." "I didn't mean that." "Yes, you did." "Look, I'm sorry." "It's just we have different ways of doing things, and, you know, sometimes your way's better and sometimes my way is, but us arguing isn't gonna solve anything." "(sniffs) You're right." "I'm sorry, too." "I wish I could walk on walls like a gecko right about now." "(gasps) Maybe we can." "Okay, now press your feet against the wall." "Good." "If my calculations are correct, all we have to do is push against each other with enough force that we can walk our way up the wall." "(grunting, laughing)" "Hey, it's working!" "Wait!" "Whoa-ah!" "We have to go at the same pace." "Right." "You got it." "Let's try again." "Grab the edge!" "Great idea, Isa." "Look!" "Uh, guys!" "Hold on, Gabe." "We've gotta help Seor Agama first." "Ay-ay, here." "Here you go." "Uhh!" "Oh!" "(gasps)" "Ha ha!" "I am myself again!" "(sighs of relief)" "BOTH:" "Whoa!" "Aah!" "Are you okay?" "Yes!" "Thank you, Seor Agama." "No, thank you!" "That was the second-worst animal a cursed treasure ever turned me into." "What was the first?" "Brr!" "You don't want to know." "I say we get out of here before one of you sets off another booby trap." "Uhh!" "Huh?" "You gotta be kidding me!" "What now?" "The temple is sealing itself shut." "Hurry, through that tunnel!" "It's the only way out!" "My Go-Pack!" "Keep going!" "I'll grab it." "Elena!" "Keep going!" "Keep going!" "What?" "Get ready to jump!" "Aah!" "Isabel!" "Jump!" "No!" "Oh!" "Isa!" "Gotcha!" "Oh!" "Way to calculate that jump!" "I didn't calculate anything!" "Sometimes, you just gotta go for it." "(chuckles)" "I guess some treasures aren't meant to be taken." "That's okay." "We already have a treasure more valuable than any statue." "We sure do." "We rescued Antonio Agama, the greatest adventurer in all of Avalor!" "(chuckles) What an adventure we had!" "You should've come with us instead of lounging around all day on the beach." "Hey, I found us some dessert!" "Who is this?" "Antonio Agama, at your service." "I heard you've been missing for years." "And I might've stayed missing if it wasn't for these three young heroes." "Huh?" "Hey, there's something in here." "It's another message!" "Let me look at that." " Hmm, mm-hmm." " Gabe!" "You'll thank me later." "But what if someone else is in trouble?" "Don't worry, princess," "I think I just found my next adventure!" "Ha ha!"
