"Uh, I'm just picturing how wonderful your parents must be if they raised a girl like you." "Let's just head inside, shall we?" "Namaste." "Thank you, I think I shall stay." "My word, he's so precious." "MAN:" "Gail, don't scare the boy before I've had a chance to meet him." "Help me with the tofu, it's getting unwieldy!" "You did fantastic with this one, Michelle." "Not like that last boy you brought over, with the piercings, and that loud carbon-emitting death trap he was driving." " Gail!" " Coming!" "I had to come from somewhere." " You didn't want to warn me first?" " (DOG GROWLS)" "All hail King Pixie!" "(PIXIES CHEERING)" "For too long, we have been pushed to the edges of this world." "We live in the ruins of the temple that was nature." "The humans continue to force us back with their growing gluttony of technology and garbage." "But no more, my Pixie warriors!" "No more!" "Today, we make a stand!" "Today we strike back at the very core of indecency and woe that has beset our tribes for generations." "Today we will strike down the auto mechanic known as Joe." "For the glory of Pixies!" "He's incredible!" "I wish my mom was here to see this." "Max, she's right over there." " Hey, Max!" " Oh... hi, Mom!" "Are you ready for war, Sam?" "Uh..." "Sam?" "I have a bad feeling about this." "And this is the kitchen, the stone is from Argentina, and most of the decor hails from Africa." " Having trouble keeping up with Mom?" " Who me?" "I'm good." "Pretty sure the speed walking wore holes in my shoes, though." "Oh, a Canadian." "Hey, Joe, what do you call a cow with no legs?" " Oh, Dad, please don't." " What?" "Ground beef!" "Because the cow is on the... (CLEARS THROAT) I think the boy gets it, dear." "Okay, okay." "It also wouldn't hurt to have real beef every once in a while." "That's enough, Captain Cannibal." "Do I look like someone who'd eat people?" "I'd never eat a person... unless you consider the talking cow a person." "In which case, I might just be persuaded to give it a try." "I think they like you." "As long as your dad doesn't toss me on the grill." "(GIGGLES) Just grab a tray." "Cheap thing won't light." "So what's your deal, Joe?" "Oh, I'm an auto mechanic." "I actually just got a promotion." "That's great!" "You hear that, Gail?" "This hard-working boy just got a promotion." " This is moving fast, isn't it?" " Oh, so what?" "I met your father on a Tuesday and a week later, we were married in Vegas." "Well, I'm definitely not ready for marriage." "He's cute, funny, seems like he's got things together, and it would be nice to have grandkids around." "Okay, slow down, Mom!" "I just can't get this lighter going!" "Here, let me try." "Hm..." "Hmm." " That's some bad luck, son." " Bad luck?" "Oh, no!" "Okay, girls!" "Joe's got the hot stones going." " What happened to your eyebrows?" " Uh, pyrotechnic mishap." "How in the world did a grease monkey like you become such a charmer?" "(SIGHS) Just lucky, I guess." "Huh." "Joe, not sure if you've ever done, hot stones before but dinner takes a while." "What we do to keep things moving is play a game." " How about boys versus girls?" " Mom!" "Your call, Joe, or are you afraid of getting crushed by the girls?" "Uh, sure, yeah, I'm in." "For William!" "(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)" "Get over..." " Is the game Charades?" " I don't think so." "Then what is he doing?" " He... help." " Purna Shalabhasana!" " What?" " Full locust." "Mom, what are you talking about?" "Is he having a seizure?" "No, I think he's stretching." "Looks like Ashtanga yoga." "There's the Shashankasana Pose." "Nice form, Joe." "Garudasana." "Ardha-Kurmasana." "Ardha Matsyendrasana." "Dandayamana Biebhakta Paschimottanasana!" "Yeah, I don't know that one." " Joe, Joe..." " Ow." " Oh, no!" "My body shouldn't do this." " He is a very fit, young man." "And Shivassana to end, what a display!" "It's also known as the dead body pose." "A little pre-meal stretch is good for everyone." "Come on, Henry." "Come on, Michelle." "Gather round." "Our troops are exhausted, sir." "They need rest and cannot continue." "They liked what he did?" "They think he's fit?" "We need him ruined!" "Do something, Sam." "You must be the hand of vengeance." "Fine." "All right, team, let's eat!" "This is not one of my better days." "Well done, my son." "(GROANS)" " Let's go home." " What makes you think this is over?" "It's over for me." "What I just did... wasn't right." "I am so sorry, Mom." "Don't worry about it." "Everyone's okay and that's what matters." "Besides I haven't seen an explosion like that" " since I smuggled antiquities out of Egypt." " Yeah." "Love you, Mom." "Well, saves me some money on a haircut, at least." "No hard feelings, Joe." "Hope your luck changes." "Look, can I apologize for..." "Not right now, just drive." "Hey, hey, Michelle, wait up!" "Look, I would really appreciate it if you just left." "Oh, man, this is gonna be great." "Michelle." "Joe, I'm working right now and do not have the temperament." " Please, let me explain." " Explain what?" "That you ruined my parents' house with some outlandish yoga-infused craziness?" " No, I..." " Look, I have seen klutzy before and I thought that was adorable, but today's events, that was too far." "What is wrong with you?" "If I tell you, you promise not to think I'm crazy?" "Go ahead, I'm listening." " Pixies." " Pixies?" "Pixies." "It's this whole curse thing." " It started a while ago." " You think that's funny?" " What?" " Hah!" "You think you can win me over by blaming Pixies for your problems?" "No, it's the truth, absolute truth!" "Joe, just go home before you break something I won't forgive you for." "There!" "Behind you!" "Stop!" "I don't have the patience for this any more." "I got it!" "Please leave, Joe." "I..." "I'm..." "I'm so sorry." "(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)" " What next?" " Sam?" " We go home." "This is over." " Huh?" "You're not thinking big enough, Sammy boy." "(MUSIC PLAYING)" "Joe?" "You okay?" "Joe!" "About time." "Gimme a hand." " Perfect!" " Oh, no." "(SIGHS)" "Oh, this is the best day of my life." "(MUSIC CHANGES)" "Dad, this is really going too far." "All is fair in war and love." " Dad..." " Son... well-placed tree sap can work wonders." "Dad, look at him." "All I see is a big load of human scum." "Hello?" "Joe, are you okay?" "How could you possibly think this is right, Dad?" "Right or wrong, we did what must be done." "Pixies, our war is over!" "And history shall declare us victorious." "(MOANS)" "(WHINES)" "(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)" "I need a status update." "Sir, it looks like this is gonna take a lot longer than we expected." " How long are we talking?" " Well, if you factor in..." " I said how long!" " A few dozen years." "What are our options?" "We could send half of our Pixies to join another colony." "Send scouts to check for room in allied villages." "Start dividing us up into refugee camps." "Yes, sir, will do." "So much for our kingdom." "What are we gonna do?" "I have an idea." "Oh, wow, you've really let this place go... and yourself." "Have you not moved at all?" " We're gonna need to get you in the shower." " Why, so you can trip me again?" "Set my room on fire?" "Continue to ruin my life?" "No, no, I never..." "Look, I didn't want to do it." "This was all because of my brother, and he would have hated this." "He always used to tell me to treat people how you want to be treated." " Do onto others." " Huh?" "We humans have a saying, "Do onto others as you want done onto you."" "That sounds like my brother." "My mom used to say it." "It's why I gave up." "I deserved your punishment." "I think we deserved the same, after ruining your life for so long." " So now what?" " Now we're gonna stop this horrible cycle, and we're gonna do something good... together." "I like the idea, but how?" "First, you're gonna have a shower and next, I'm gonna burn that chair." "Good call." "It does feel good to build something." "Pixies are not great builders." "Magnificent tricksters, fantastic ruiners, great smashers, but after we break something, we never have to put it back together." "We really suck at building things." "Really?" "Birds build nests out of sticks in like a day." " Birds eat us." " Touché." "Let's keep the chatter down." "No one else can see me and people are starting to stare." "Are you invisible?" "No, we're wings and blood, just like you, Joe." "Don't over think it, big guy." "Hey, believe me, most things in life, I don't over think." "This time, though, I have put some thought into this." "You're Samuel's friend Twitch, aren't you?" "This is where I get my medal for brilliant combat strategy." "Have you seen my son, Samuel?" "What?" "No medal?" "I, um... saw him." " Well, do you know where he is now?" " I think so." "Well, I'd like to, um... um..." "apologize for my behavior." "He may have been a little wiser than I gave him credit for." "We'll find him, sir!" " Come on, Twitch." " Since when have you been the leading type?" "TWITCH:" "Hurry up, Chunky." "Listen, just because I might not be what you call a small Pixie, doesn't mean you can pick on me." "I can't look like the Pixies in those magazines." " I'm sorry, Max." " (LAUGHING)" " He's torturing Sammy." " (LAUGHING CONTINUES)" "It sounds like laughter to me." "Of course, it sounds like laughter!" "It's diabolical laughter!" "Let him go, you mad man!" "Let him go!" "Let's go tell the king." "(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)" "Oh, great majesty, lord of all we survey," " he who is higher than the holiest of..." " Okay, okay, just get to it." "Your son, our friend, the prince Samuel, is being tortured by that big-headed human." "What?" "Is this true?" "It is true, his head is massive." "He's pulling Sam apart, wing by wing!" "You two, enough already, round up the troops." "We have one last battle to fight." "Uh, what's with all the fuss?" "Samuel!" "My boy!" "You're alive!" "Did that... that human hurt you?" "I've been working with Joe." " He wants to help us and..." " Help us?" "But he hates us... just as we hate him." "Joe doesn't hate us, he was angry, but we ruined his life." "You were angry because William was hurt." "Both of us are allowed to be angry, but what we did when we were angry... it was wrong, Dad, we were both wrong." "You have an entire kingdom to lead and you're going to lose them." "Let it go, Dad." "Let's stop the fighting." "Forgive me, sir... you've been so worried over William, you forgot about Sam." "He's a great son, and an amazing leader." "Huh." "I can help lead our people in a new direction, but I need you to trust me." "Look at you..." "Samuel. (CHUCKLES)" "I am sorry, my son." "I'm sorry." "Follow me, Dad." "I have a surprise to show you." "I have a surprise for everyone!" "SAM:" "Everyone, this is Joe." "PIXIES:" "Hi, Joe!" "Hi." "I..." "I'm really sorry about what I did to your village." "I lost my temper." "What I did was wrong... and I'm sorry." "I'm really sorry." "And William, I wish I could take it all back." "Sam told me something that William used to tell him, something my own family once said." "Do onto others as you'd have done onto you." "I hope what I'm about to show you repays just some of the damage I've caused you." "Welcome to your new home." "Each house has plumbing and electricity." "Sammy mentioned that sometimes the elements can be harsh out there, and this thing is storm-proof." "I can attach it easily to the rest, assuming you want it... and we can both forgive each other." "Joe, um... we forgive you, and we are also sorry." "I know this is what William would have wanted." "It is, Dad." " William!" "My son!" " You're okay!" "Ooh, careful, guys, yeah, still not quite healed yet." "William, I'm so sorry!" "It was never my intention... (SIGHS) I'm really glad you're okay." "Pixies may be small, but we're feisty." "So, I've learned." "Well, Joe, I've been wrong all along." "It seems we can co-exist..." "and peacefully." " Way to go, Dad!" " Dad, William... with everything Joe's done for us maybe there's something we can do for him." "Mrs. Mayor, you look absolutely stunning." "Just stunning!" "Deanna, you must give me a call sometime next week." "We need to talk TV interviews for Michelle." "You have my card?" "Get it off the desk inside!" "Ciao!" "(INDISTINCT CHATTER)" "How's my brilliant artist doing, on her big night?" "Terrible." "Michelle, honey, I know you've had setbacks, but we couldn't push this opening off any longer." "Use the ones you've repaired and let's hit it!" "Barbara, they look terrible." "I can't represent myself like this." "Michelle, my dear, you're established, respected, published and never rejected." "In the art world, that means your mistakes are art." "And everyone will love you for it." "Just say it's part of the exhibit." "You can say it represents the broken world we live in." "Are you sure?" "I... oh, I don't know." "I've been doing this for a long time, honey." "Now you've got 300 people who don't give a rat about the truth." "They just want to see some art." "BARBARA:" "Ladies and gentlemen, attention, please!" " Oh." " Now, without any further adieu, let me introduce the lady of the evening," " Miss Michelle Myers." " (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)" "Oh, thank you." "Oh... oh, my, thank you." "That is just so nice, thank you so much." "Well, firstly, I wanted to start by thanking all of you, as my manager Barbara just did, for your understanding in regards to this ever-changing opening day." "This project has been a long time coming, and just as I thought I'd reached the end of this long journey... fate or circumstance caused some havoc in my personal life that effected my work here." "Um, I am missing some of the little people for... (CLEARS THROAT) Excuse me." "Uh, hi, hello, sorry to interrupt." "Excuse me." "Joe..." "Special delivery for a Michelle." "Where should I put it?" " Joe, if you so much as..." " Trust me." "Um, ladies and gentlemen, it appears that I do have another guest for my carnival." "Looks like he arrived on-time, after all." "Trust me, please." "Okay, you're all set." "(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)" "This is unbelievable!" "This is going to go viral!" "No, better, this is going to go antibiotic!" " I feel healthier just watching it." " Wow." "And the delivery guy was a great touch." "So avent garde, what showmanship!" "Oh, thank you." "They look so real!" "You must have spent a fortune on these little robots!" "This is..." "I can't believe it." "I'm not looking for an apology, I wouldn't have believed me, either." "I just didn't want you to think I was making fun of you." "I'll never do that." "And I couldn't show you they're real, because..." "Because we don't exist." "This is a one-time favor we owed Joe, okay?" "Wh... yeah, I understand." "It's a really long story." "Are you still mad at me?" "Look at that." "He got the girl, after all." "She is pretty cute..." "for a creature without wings." " I don't see you with a girl." " (SCOFFS) I don't see you with one, either." "Yeah, well, I've got you to keep me company, right?" " MAX:" "Always." " (SOFT MUSIC FADES UP)" "(MUSIC CHANGES)" "(SIGHS)"
