"I can like him and still be friends with Bob and Terry." "MAX:" "Hey, Douglas!" "Hey!" "Where's Carol?" "He's in the fort!" "Aft section, main chamber." "MAX:" "Woo-hoo!" "Carol!" "Carol!" "The fort looks great." "Yeah." "Thanks." "We're all working really hard on it." "Where you been?" "Well, KW took me to see her friends, Bob and Terry." "They really want to meet you." "They may even stay over." "{BOB  TERRY SQUAWKING}" "ALEXANDER:" "Oh, this is the famous Bob and Terry?" " What?" "KW told you about me?" "IRA:" "Hi, guys." "What'd she say?" "{ALEXANDER LAUGHS}" "JUDITH:" "Oh, precious little Bob and Terry get carried." "Excuse me..." "My voice?" "Oh, thank you." "Thank you." "Yeah, sometimes I..." "IRA:" "I know, I know." "I am a very lucky man." "Hey, hey, do you guys know any jokes?" "Who's there?" "Loud interrupting cow..." "That's hilarious." "They're amazing, KW." "Max, what's wrong with the fort?" " I thought you said it'd be automatic." " What?" "Well, I thought you said if anybody got in here we didn't want the fort would automatically cut their brains out." " Carol." " Oh, well I thought that then, but I kind of decided that if we know them they should keep their brains." "Even if we don't know them that well." "I think you should apologize to Bob and Terry." "I don't apologize to owls." "Owls are stupid." "Carol, that's hateful." "Why would you bring them here?" "Huh?" "This place was supposed to be for us." "They are not sleeping in our pile." "Gee, you're the best king ever." "You've changed everything." "Hey, Carol." "I don't get why she likes them so much." "And I couldn't even understand what they were saying." "All I heard was squeaking." "I couldn't really understand what they were saying either." " Really?" " Yeah." "Everybody's mad at me." "Is there anything you can do to, you know?" "There's something I like to do that sometimes makes me feel better." "What is it?" "Okay, we're going to have a war." "And we're going to completely clobber each other." "Clobber each other?" "Yeah, with huge dirt clods." "I used to do it a ton when I was a little kid." "Yep, we've not had a dirt-clod fight in a long time." "MAX:" "Yeah." "It's the best way to have fun together." "Yeah, life was simpler back then with the dirt clods." " Yeah." " So who wants to be a bad guy?" "Uh..." "MAX:" "Okay." "I'll pick one, then." "Um..." " Okay, you're a bad guy." " Yeah, I saw that coming." "And then you're definitely a bad guy." " What?" "Damn." " And you can pick one other." " I'll be bad." "Really." " Okay, we pick you." "No." "No, I can't be a bad guy." "I'm the king." "I'm a good guy." " I'm a bad guy." "I'm a bad guy." "A bad guy." "MAX:" "Okay, you can be a bad guy." " Judy, I'm with you." "JUDITH:" "Yeah, I heard." "And you, uh... {BREATHES HEAVILY}" " He's with you." " Am I a good guy?" "Yes, of course." "You have the best arm." "Hey, where were you?" "I was just making sure Bob and Terry still have their brains." "MAX:" "KW!" " They do." "Hey, KW, you want to be on my team?" "We're the bad guys." "MAX:" "No!" "No, no." "No, you're with us." "You're a good guy." "Yeah, come on, KW, be a good guy." "MAX:" "Okay, so you're on my team." "You and me and Carol." "Hi, KW." "So, what we're going to do is we're going to try to kill the bad guys by beating them in the head with these dirt clods." "We're going to try to find the biggest pieces..." "IRA:" "Whoa!" " Ha-ha!" "You didn't see that coming!" "MAX:" "Run for cover!" "CAROL:" "Run!" "JUDITH:" "You'd better run." "ALEXANDER:" "Hey, wait." "You didn't make the official starting noise." "Sorry." "MAX:" "Run!" "Come on!" "{YELLING AND LAUGHING}" "DOUGLAS:" "Look out for the bad guys." "We got them pinned down." "They can't even move." " Fire on three!" " Okay." "One, two, three!" "You guys are going to..." "Wait, wait, wait." "I have an idea." "Come out!" "JUDITH:" "No!" "Why not?" "Uh, because you're going to hit us in the head with dirt." "Come out!" "JUDITH:" "No!" "Why not?" "When I said you were going to hit us in the head, you didn't say anything!" "That means you're planning to hit us in the head with dirt!" " Man, they really have us figured out." " Yeah." "Okay." "Let's go!" "Charge!" "JUDITH:" "Ira!" "Get Carol." "Good shot." "I'm going to get you!" "{YELLING AND LAUGHING}" "Hey." "Who threw Richard?" "Well, he's on our team now." " Gotcha." "IRA:" "No animals!" "It really hurts!" "It's hurting!" " Hey, Douglas." "Get the goat." "DOUGLAS:" "Okay." "MAX:" "Knock his legs out." " Got it." "Ow!" "That's cheating!" "I'm not going to play anymore!" "JUDITH:" "Alexander, come on." "Fight with us." " Do it again." "ALEXANDER:" "Oh!" " That's..." "That's not fair!" "Are you crazy?" " You're supposed to get hit." "It's a war." "That wasn't fair." "Douglas hit me when I was hurt." "You can't hit someone when they're hurt." "I quit." "Get back in here, right now." " Alex, count to 10." "Things will get better." " Alexander, don't you cry!" "ALEXANDER:" "If I count to 10, will you be gone, Ira?" " Don't you dare talk to Ira the way I do." "MAX:" "Knock it off!" " Ow!" "That's my eye." "CAROL:" "Run!" "Come on." "Look out!" "Run." "Oh, Carol." "I'm sorry." "CAROL:" "Ow!" "KW:" "What happened?" "Ha-ha-ha." "Somebody step on your head?" "CAROL:" "What are you doing?" " What?" " Don't step on my head." "What do you mean?" "It's a war." "Douglas just did it." "Yeah, but he did it by accident, you did it on purpose." "And he didn't step on the face part of my head." "It was a joke." "I was just joking." "Sure you were." "Like you aren't always looking for the opportunity to step on my head." "Because that's what you do." "KW:" "Fine." "Fine." "You know what?" "This is exactly why I don't ever want to do anything with you anymore." "Go ahead." "Step on my head." "No, forget it." "I'm not going to step on your head just to make you feel better." "Let's go, Douglas." "DOUGLAS:" "Carol, I think you did the right thing." "You know, not stepping on her head." "Thanks, Max." "But I'm done." "I don't know why I came back here." "I'm glad I met you, I guess." "So, king, what's going on?" "This is how you rule a kingdom?" "Everyone fighting?" "The bad guys feel bad." "Hell, everyone feels bad." "IRA:" "Yeah, I'm still sort of dizzy." "My eyeballs feel loose." "Can it, Ira." "Everyone's eyeballs feel loose." "CAROL:" "No." "Max will bring KW back." "He'll keep us all together." "He has powers." "He told us." "Right, Max?" "Show us." "Uh-oh." "Somebody broke the king." "I don't get it." "Oh, wait, I do." "It's stupid." "{GRO ANS}" "I think he's done now." "That's what we waited for?" "Carol?" "Hi." " Is that from the dirt clods?" " Yeah." "It's from when you had Douglas hit me." "I'm sorry about that." "It's okay." "No one really listens to you, huh?" "Oh, you've noticed." "Yeah, I guess you're not used to that, being a king and all." "I really messed this place up." "You're not really a king, huh?" "You're just regular." "I knew it." "I don't even know if there is such a thing as a king who can do all the things you said." "Look, I don't care." "Just don't ever let Carol find out." "CAROL:" "He's a terrible king." "Where is he from?" "Where does he go?" "Why isn't he helping us?" "I want to eat them up." "CAROL:" "Hey, Max what's that?" "Well, I was thinking we needed a place where the king is secret." "Like a secret chamber for the king." "Well, I don't understand." "What...?" "Well, you know, like a small place with a door that's not so big." "I don't know." "I didn't picture it with secret doors." "What if it were a big place with big secret doors?" "That..." "That's not really how it would be done." "It's more like..." "It's like a..." "About that big?" "CAROL:" "Everybody get out here." "Wake up." "Everybody wake up!" "All right, get out here!" "JUDITH:" "Ira, what is that?" "CAROL:" "Everybody, wake up." "DOUGLAS:" "It's Carol." "JUDITH:" "I knew it was going to happen." "IRA:" "Judy, Judy." "CAROL:" "It's all wrong." "It wasn't supposed to be like this." "ALEXANDER:" "Judith, what's happening right now?" "Judith?" "CAROL:" "Wake up and come out here." "DOUGLAS:" "What is it?" "JUDITH:" "What's he saying?" "CAROL:" "Get out here!" "JUDITH:" "What's he talking about?" "CAROL:" "It's wrong." "I can't even look at it." "DOUGLAS:" "What is it?" "CAROL:" "The fort." " We got to tear the fort down." "DOUGLAS:" "What?" "CAROL:" "It wasn't supposed to be like this." "DOUGLAS:" "No, Carol." "You said we were all going to sleep together in a real pile." "And now you want a secret room." "And KW's gone for good." "Now I have to worry if the sun is going to die." "Look at it." "It didn't come up." "It's dead." "JUDITH:" "What?" "ALEXANDER:" "It's dark." " Oh, my God." " Dead?" "MAX:" "Carol, stop!" " It's dead." "It's dead." " You're scaring everybody." " It's morning." "The sun's not dead, it's just night time." "How do you know?" "I can't trust what you say." "Everything keeps changing." "All right, come on, we're ripping it down." "Carol, we're not ripping the fort down!" "It was supposed to be where only things you wanted to happen would happen." "Come on, Douglas, do what I tell you." "MAX:" "No!" "We all live here, not just you." "It..." "It's everybody's." "Judith and Ira and everybody." " Oh, finally." " You were supposed to keep us safe and take care of us, and you didn't." "DOUGLAS:" "Carol." " I'm sorry!" " That's not good enough." "DOUGLAS:" "Carol." "You're a terrible king." "DOUGLAS:" "Carol!" "CAROL:" "What?" " He's not our king." "CAROL:" "What?" "Don't say that." "How could you say that?" "Don't you dare say that." "There's no such thing as a king." "CAROL:" "Don't you say that." "He's just a boy pretending to be a wolf pretending to be a king." "That's not true." " He's just like us." " Oh, why don't I listen to myself?" "CAROL:" "That's not true!" "Look, I just went along with it because I knew you wanted it so much." " Don't say that!" " Don't!" "Carol, stop it!" " Oh, no!" "MAX:" "Stop it, what are you doing?" "DOUGLAS:" "Carol!" "CAROL:" "What?" "That was my favourite arm." "CAROL:" "Well, I was just holding onto it." "You pulled away." " What?" " Carol, stop it!" " You lied?" " You're out of control!" "I'm not out of control." "You were supposed to take care of us." "You promised!" "I'll eat you up!" "{CAROL GROWLING}" "Come back here!" "Max!" "Max!" "Come on." "Come here." "Get in." "Get inside."

"He's just scared." "Well, he only makes it harder." "And it's hard enough already." "And he loves you." "You're his family." "Yeah." "It's hard being a family." "I can't breathe that well in here." "Can you get me out?" "I wish you guys had a mom." "I'm going to go home." "MAX:" "Carol!" "Max." "Well, um..." "Yeah." "Yeah." "So, what ever happened with you and the Vikings?" "Well, in the end I had to leave." "Why?" "I'm not a Viking or a king or anything." "So, what are you?" "I'm Max." "Well that's not very much, is it?" "Hey, Max?" "Yeah?" "When you go home will you say good things about us?" "Yeah." "I will." "Thanks, Max." "You're the first king we haven't eaten." "Yeah, it's true." "See you." "ALEXANDER:" "Bye, Max." "Bye."
