This is you?

I can't believe it!

I've heard you called a lot things, tito

But iron man?

I was the only kid on the island crazy enough to try to set

An endurance record.

In just one day, I rode up mauna kea...

Ran around the entire rim of the volcano...

[Rumbling and bubbling]

And did a ten-mile ocean swim.

[Cheering]

Then I had to be carried all the way back to the condo.

[Groans]

Otto: the wall of fame is great,

But... There's one thing missing.

What?

Rocket boy.

You think there's enough wall

For all your greatness?

I figure we'll start on this wall, then

Move on to the rest of the shack.

But how doweget up on the wall?

All you have to do is something memorable that celebrates beach life.

What's up with this?

A dumb old sand castle?

Anybody can do that.

Yes, but this castle

Was made with dry sand and spit.

Whoa...

Who's that?

Ah, that's bart "sushi breath" campolo

Set the record for eating the most raw squid in one sitting.

Did he have a lot of competition?

None whatsoever!

Whoo-hoo!

Whoa!

All right!

[Panting]

There has to be a way we can make the wall.

We got the photos, let's just nail them up.

No, we got to earn it!

Reggie: I got it!

You know how tomorrow is the longest day of the year?

It could just give us enough time

To do something to make the wall of fame.

Otto: cool! We could do a bunch of events.

Just like tito.

Skateboarding...

And surfing...

You mean like an endurance test?

[Laughs]

Wall of fame, here we come!

Oh, you think so, dork-os?

Go home, lars, I think I hear mommy calling your name.

At least she remembers mine.

So you kiddies want an endurance challenge?

How about we make it into a contest?

Your team against mine for a spot on the wall.

You're on!

We can start at dawn.

I'll get together a list of events tonight.

This is going to be fun.

Yeah... If losing to us is fun.

Later... Much!

[Laughs]

We'll show him.

You sure will.

I mean...

Wesure will.

Up until my collapse.

That's not going to happen.

Not on my team.

We're going to end up on that wall!

Uhh!

Done.

Give this to your brother.

So what's the plan?

I divided the day into sea, air and land.

First, dawn patrol in the surf.

Then big air madtown, street game tournament

And finally, a bike ride to gold point and back.

Gold point?!

That's got to be five miles!

Five miles that lars and his guys

Can't possibly make after going against us.

Great job, reg.

[Buoy bell rings]

Time to start... Losing!

[Laughs]

Yow!

Not a chance, lars.

Last one to the buoy is a lame-o.

Hurry up, squid!

I'm pacing myself.

Tito didn't make the wall of fame saving his energy, dude.

Hey, doofus, maybe you should just forfeit this round.

Ah...! Ooh...! Ooh... !

Aah!

Ow!

Hey! Watch it!

I can't help it if you're in my way.

Chill out, otto man.

And say you're sorry.

Make me!

Guys, we're on

The same team, remember?

[Laughing]

Yeah, we shouldn't be fighting each other.

We should be fighting lars.

The only thing I'm fighting is my stomach.

Can we please stop and get some lunch?

[Gurgling...]

What did I tell you?

You little cuzzes need refueling.

You know, I find the hula burger a perfect blend of high-energy foodstuffs and...

Other... Meat byproducts.

[Munching and slurping...]

Easy there, brothers!

Slow down!

Eating isn't part of the competition.

We got to chow and get back, tito.

There's a spot on that wall that I don't want to lose.

You'll get there, guys, don't worry about it.

Just try and have some fun, okay?

It's not about fun, right, iron man?

There's no talking to that kid.

Welcome to my world.

Yeah!

All right!

[Grunting and laughing...]

Yeah...!

Whoa!

Whoa!

[Laughs] whoa!

How much more time?

[Weakly]: just two more hours...

Then the bike run.

Oh, my arms...!

My legs...!

My, my... What's the holdup?

Let's go! [cr*ck]

Aah... [Whimpers]

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

Whoa...

Yeah... All right!

Whoa!

Whoo-hoo!

[Yelling...]

[Panting and groaning...]

[Panting...]

[Panting and groaning...]

Somebody's got to keep us in the game!

All right!

[Animal howling]

I'd be flat on the ground if this bike wasn't holding me up.

I don't think I can make another muscle move.

Uh, so maybe we call it a draw

And both our teams can get our picture on the wall?

No way-- sharing a spot with you

Is worse than not getting on the wall at all.

Hey, at least I offered.

If you're expecting the squid

To win this for you... Good luck!

All right... Who wants to count down for the race to begin?

I will!

I am ready to jam!

But sam, this is, like, your worst event.

There's not much difference between my best event and my worst.

Kind of like otto, except he's really, really good at stuff.

I'm ready!

Come on, you grunts! Get on your bikes!

It's go time!

[Groans]

Okay.

Three...

Two...

One!

[Grunting and groaning...]

Oh, no... I...

I can't...

Oh...

Ah... Ah...

Oh...!

[Panting and groaning]

Whoa!

Whoa!

Oh! [Whimpering]

You still have to cross the finish line

Before the sun sets!

If you don't make it, nobody wins!

[Whimpering]

Mama...

I... Just... Want... To finish!

[Goat bleating]

[Sam rings bike bell]

Looks like the party pooped right out of you, little cuzzes.

I ache in places I didn't even know I had!

It ain't easy making the wall of fame.

[Panting...]

Let's face it, today stunk.

This wasn't fun at all.

[Bike bell rings]

After all that, we didn't even win.

[Tires squeal]

You wouldn't know it

By looking at sammy.

I did it! I made it!

[Other kids groaning]

That's okay.

Stay where you are.

No need to get up.

We can't.

You did great today, sammy.

Yeah, we should have paced ourselves

Like the squid... I mean sam.

This reminds me of an old hawaiian fable.

What, the tortoise and the hare?

No, the two sand crabs and the coconut milk.

Uh... Actually, it's nothing like this.

Forget I said anything.

About what?

You know a fable about some lame-os

Who tried their hardest but still lost?

There are a lot of different kinds of winners, otto.

What do you say, tito?

I say I see four wall-of-famers, brother.

No question.

Everybody say "cheese!"

Yeah! [Groans] [groans] [groans]

Sam: I am the iron squid!

[Humming]

"Insert peg 'a' into peg receptacle four."

Aah!

Oh, hey, cuz, how about we throw tent "a" into ocean "b"?

[Kids laughing]

Yeah, all right!

Sammy: watch it!

Yeah, the first beach safari of summer!

Sure is cool of raymundo

To take us on this camping trip with you guys.

There are no waves, man. It's flat!

Hey...

The water's so clear

I just saw a school of fish!

[Grunts]

Hey, you guys...

Why don't we go fishing?

I love fishing!

Yeah? I love fish tacos.

Uhh!

Ray: sounds like a great idea, you guys.

As soon as tito listens to me and we get this tent up, we'll take you fishing.

That could take all day!

We're old enough to go out on our own.

Yeah, dad.

Please, sir?

Please...?

Hmm...

Fishing... In the boat... By yourselves?

We'll be super careful, pop.

Dad, I want to catch a really big one

Just like you did. Remember?

You told us about that huge -pound tuna

You caught last year with your bare hands?

[Laughs] oh, that...

[Laughs] uh, that tuna was, like, maybe, uh, pounds.

You know what the ancient hawaiians say about fish stories, brother.

"Lie about the size, I can see it in your eyes."

Otto: come on, dad.

I want to catch a whopper!

You always said

"Go big or don't go at all."

Come on, raymundo!

Others: come on, raymundo!

Okay, okay!

But you got to promise me you'll stay close to the shore.

Oh, man, we're never going to catch the big one.

Let's go already.

The fish aren't going anywhere

And neither are you until we go over this list.

Life jackets...

Check.

Fishing rods...

Check.

Tackle box...

Check.

Did you secure

The extra gas t*nk?

Raymundo, please...

I went over the list.

Got it, got it, got it.

You guys, stay close to shore, you hear me?

Can we go now?

This is going to be so cool.

Stay close to shore.

Be safe.

[Grunting]

[Starts engine]

All: whoo-hoo-hoo! All right... Yeah... All right... Whoa..!

Fish ahoy!

The fish are close, I can feel them!

Twist, drop anchor!

Aye-aye, skipper!

Oops... Sorry.

That was smooth.

Can we start fishing now?

Anybody got a bite?

You think maybe the fish are asleep?

Asleep? Well, then, we better wake them up!

Whoo-hoo!

Wahoo!

Are you guys nuts?

You're scaring all the fish.

Now we're going to have to wait even longer.

Remember what tito said?

Eat more coconuts to keep regular?

Wh-wh-wh-what's happening?!

You're catching a fish, squid!

I am?

What do I do now?

Reel him in, sammy.

Whoa, oh, oh...

You go, boy!

The squid got lucky, that's all.

[Grunting and groaning...]

[Coughing]

Come on, come on!

Go, squid, go, squid...!

All right!

[Grunts]

Ah...

This isit,tito!

I hope they're biting.

I'm in the mood for a good old-fashioned fish fry!

I've got it under control.

I'm using a surf-style turbo spinning reel...

Graphite pole with carbide guides...

A sliding sinker, a six-ounce lure...

And multi-filament line.

I prefer the ancient hawaiian way.

Huh? You're going to catch a fish with that?!

I'm not telling-- it's an ancient secret.

You're using a rock.

Why don't you put your money where your -pound

Bare-handed blue fin tuna is, brother?

You're on, bro!

The one who catches the most fish

Gets out of dish duty for the next , years!

[Laughs]

Okay by me, brother!

[Reggie laughing]

Oh, big one, dude!

Whoa, whoa...!

This is crazy!

How many fish can one girl catch?

Reggie, can we switch fishing rods?

No way.

Oh, man! I think i...

I think I've got a bite, and it feels big!

What?!

[Grunting]

I got him!

Whoa... He's huge!

I think he's a cute little fishy.

That's what I'll call him-- little fishy.

I say we forget this small fry stuff.

Otto's just mad 'cause he hasn't caught one.

I can't catch a big one here.

We got to go into deeper water.

No way! We're not supposed to go out too far.

We promised dad, remember?

Go big or don't go at all.

And anyway, what's "close to shore?"

If I can see the shore, I'm close to it, right, twister?

Wh... Yeah, yeah, whatever.

You're going on a boat ride!

[Starts engine]

I hate to say I told you so, tito.

You still got to land him, brother.

[Grunts]

No problemo!

Huh, he just spit out a $ lure.

[Laughs]

Oh, oh, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa...

Aloha!

Reggie: gee, I'm sure glad we left our cool spot to come out here

Where the big fish are... Not!

What do big fish like to eat?

Big fish eat little fish.

We need a little fish to use as a lure!

No way, otto!

It's only a fish.

It's my little fish!

We bonded.

Dude, who's your bud, me or that fish?

Mm...

Twist!

Okay, okay...

Wh-wh-what?!

Oh, yeah!

See, I did it!

I am the king!

All: whoa...

All: phew!

All: aah...!

[Tito grunting]

[Snap]

Oh...

[Laughs]

Whoa...

Oh, tito, that's good eating!

Something is fishy here, brother ray.

Wait a second. That looks like the spare t*nk from the kids' boat!

You know what that means?

Kids: aah...!

Otto, let go of that fish already!

We're getting pulled out to sea!

Are you crazy?

I almost have him!

Ottoman, he has us, dude!

You guys are all just jealous.

Okay, we're jealous!

You're right! You win, otto!

Now cut your line

Before we become fish food!

Whoa.

Oh, man...

That was the biggest fish I almost ever caught!

Forget about that fish!

Look, it dragged us so far out

I can barely see the shore.

Relax, reg, I'll just start the motor

And we'll be home in no time.

[Grunting, engine grinding]

Aah!

[Grunting]

What's wrong with that thing?!

It needs gas.

It's empty.

Where is that extra t*nk?

Didn't you tie it down like dad said?

Yeah! I mean... No.

At least that monster fish is gone.

All: aah...!

I told those kids to stay close to shore!

Reggie: man, this is hard!

What's that rank smell?

Yuck!

The fish are going bad.

There goes twister's fish tacos.

That's right, our whole catch gone

Because my lame-o brother had to go big

Or not at all.

Look, I got us into this, let me paddle us out.

[Grunting]

Reggie: come on, otto.

Paddle big or don't paddle at all.

[Otto groaning]

[Otto grunting]

Yeah!

[Kissing...]

[Gasps]

I told you guys not to go out so far.

I was about to call in a search team!

What happened?!

I caught this big fish that dragged the boat

But I caused everyone to lose their catch. And these guys...

You didn't listen to me, otto.

You guys could have gotten in real trouble!

I'm sorry, dad.

Aah... The most important thing is

Is that you're all right.

Hmm... No fish.

What are we going to have for dinner?!

Tito: don't worry!

I've been fishing with raymundo here for years

And it's taught me one thing:

Be prepared.

[Munching...]

This is just about the greatest chili bacon cheeseburger I ever had!

[Burps]

Ah...

You outdid yourself, tito.

I love roughing it!

Pass the picante dijonnaise, please.

You know, if I paddle out on your long board

With my fishing rod

And catch a little fish, then use that as bait...

Others: otto...!
