01x09 - Wish Mountain/Crusty's New Home

Post by bunniefuu »

Come on, Shyler, open up.

Yeah, let's see if it's really loose.

It's OK. We're your friends. We won't

hurt you. All right.

Yeah, tooth loose, all right. Come out

any minute. Yeah, let's yank it

out and get it over with. Let's pull that

tooth. Let's... No,

don't worry, Shiler. We would never do

that. Would we, Flapper?

I guess not.

I remember when I lost my first tooth.

It was real scary.

Once it fell out, it wasn't so bad. We

all have to lose our baby teeth so our

big teeth can grow in. Uh oh,

I think it's coming. I'll

catch it, I'll

catch it! I got it, I got

it, I got it! Look! Wow,

it's a beauty. And you're right, it

didn't hurt a bit. Now you can go to Wish

Mountain. Golly, what's Wish

Mountain?

Here, Shyler, take us to Crusty. He'll

tell you all about the secret of Wish

Mountain. Gosh, thanks,

Ambu. I will.

So tell me. You lost a tooth, huh

Yeah. That's a mighty

fine tooth. I think you're going to grow

up to be a mighty big dinosaur one day.

I hope so, Crusty. But tell me

about Wish Mountain. Well, Wish

Mountain is a magical volcano not far

from here.

Whenever a young dinosaur like you loses

one of his baby teeth, he can take it to

Wish Mountain and throw it in the crater.

Golly, throw away my tooth?

Well, in a manner of speaking,You see,

the dinosaur can also make a wish as he

tosses his tooth away. This wish,

whatever it is, will most assuredly come

true. You mean I can wish for anything?

And it will come true?Anything.

What should I wish for?

What should I wish for?

I don't know. I wish I could

be... Just like being smart and

brave and nice. Oh, shh.

You're not supposed to tell anyone your

wish. Now, you better get going

before it gets dark. All right. But

how do you get to Wish Mountain?You

follow the Wish Mountain Trail. It starts

at the edge of Green Valley.

Thanks, Krusty. I'm off to

find Wish MountainI'm off to find this

mountain. I'm going to find this mountain

so my wish can come true, so my wish

can come true. I'm off to find

this mountain. I'm off to find this

mountain. I'm going to find this mountain

so my wish can come true, so my

wish can come true. Oh

my, which way am I supposed to

go?That's

always the problem, isn't it?

Figuring out which way to go.

Hello. Who said that?Well, no

one here but me. Hi,

I'm Iggy. Glad to meet you. I've been

waiting for somebody to come by. You have?

Sure. Well, I've been stuck here for

weeks trying to figure out which trail

goes to Longtail Valley. That's

where I live. I just got to get a home.

Hi, I'm Shiloh, and I'm going to Wish

Mountain. Wish Mountain?

Whoa! You just lose a tooth or something?

Yeah, my first one. Gee,

that's great. Listen, you wouldn't

know which trail you're taking, do you?

No. Oh, well,

maybe I'm meant to just live here. Wait,

Iggy, look! Little dinosaur footprints on

this trail and big ones on that one.

So?Well, since only

little dinosaurs go to Wish Mountain, the

trail with the little footprints must

lead the way. Why, of course.

Why didn't I think of that?You are

really smart.

Oh, gosh. Oh, golly. Now I

can go home and see my family.

Bye-bye. Thank you. Bye. Nice

meeting you. Oh, I'd better hurry, too,

if I'm gonna make it to Wish Mountain on

time. Did you hear

that, drone?Kids going to Wish Mountain.

Yeah, so. There's nothing to eat at Wish

Mountain. Uh, forget food. I'm

talking making the big wish here. That

kid's got a tooth, and I want it. I know

just how to get it, too.

I wish I could go faster, but this drill

sure is deep.

Help! Help Help Gosh, what's wrong?We

were crossing the creek when the rocks

washed away. We're stuck here!

Gia, maybe I can help. Ohh Would

you?Could you?Sure! Oh,

be careful! Gosh, this

is

Scary! There! I'll take you across!

Oh, thank you! Thank you! You

saved our lives! Really?

Yes, that was a really brave thing you

did. Where are you headed anyway?I'm on

my way to Wish Mountain. Well, you're on

the right track. Wish Mountain is right

over the next ridge. Goodbye! Bye!Bye-bye!

What are you gonna wish for?What are you

gonna wish for?Trust

me! That tooth is as good as

mine. Now listen, here's what we're gonna

do.

Oh, I get it.

Wish mountain must be just around the

bend.

This is it! Ooh, a tunnel.

You're not going in there, are you?Why

not?It's dark in there. Aren't

you afraid of the dark?Gosh,

yeah, I am. The dark is

spooky. But isn't this the

entrance to Wish Mountain?Wish Mountain?

You must have lost a tooth. Well, you're

in luck, my son. Permit me,

Aloe, guardian of Wish Mountain Pass, to

take your tooth and make your wish for

you. Got it. You do that for

me?But I can't show you my

wish. Yes, you can.

Yes, you can. Uh-uh. I can't.

I'm sorry, but thanks for trying to help

me. I'm warning you, kid. It's really

dark in there, and I'm trying to protect

you. Honest. I know, but

Crusty said only I could make my wish,

so I have to. I warned you,

kid. Kid, look out for that

mean old tunnel beast!

I told you it was scary in there.

Please help me. Sure thing,

but I need your tooth to scare off the

beast.

Okay. Here.

Thanks.

Did it work?Did it work?Did you get the

tooth?Hey, you tricked me!

Sorry, kid. Now I get to make a

wish. You can't take my tooth!

Come back!

Ohh We did

it! You were here!

Okay, okay, let's make a wish.

I said come back!

Help! Somebody help me! Here,

give me another claw.

But the tooth!

Gosh, you're gonna have to

let it go. You fall! No!

Oh, fellas!

Ohh That was a nice thing

to do. It's gone! I

shot at the big one! Let's

get out of here.

I had it?I was so close!

My wish.

Oh, that's a sad story, young'un.

Yeah, but I didn't get my wish.

Now hold on. If I recall,

your wish was to be just like Dink,

right?

Well, it seems to me, Shyla, with all

the folks you helped, you were brave and

smart and nice.

Really?Yes, Shyla, really.

Shyla, you're back! How did it go?We

missed you, Shyla. Did you make your wish?

What was your wish?Did it come true?I

think so. Right, Crusty?

Right, Shyla. Absolutely

right.

Dawn Storm last night messed up my cave

again. I sure can

use the help, Scott. Scott like helping

Prince Crusty. Jump kind?

Yep, here goes.

Fixing Crusty's cave fun, huh

Fixing fun?

If fixing not fun, why Christy

always fixing?'Cause my cave always

needs fixing. If it isn't storms, it's

cave-ins, or... or them.

Always making a silly reckless and

building their nick. No such thing as

peace and quiet here.

Fellow now.

Frosty, cave moving!

Oh, no! Not them critters pulling the

tree roots again. Roots go under this

cave?Yes, they eat them.

Oh, my gosh! Crusty! Crusty,

you okay?What happened?

Crusty tried to fix cave.

Yeah, just in time for another cave-in.

I'm about to give up on this cave.

That's it! I've had it! I'm moving out of

this hole! I think he means it this

time.

Crush, you're really going to leave Green

Meadow, Crusty?Yep. Soon as I

wash up, I'm going to find a new,

comfortable home. Not so hard,

Scat. You'll take the finish off my

shelf. Crusty, don't go. This is

your home. Some kind of home.

I'm sick and tired of fixing it all the

time. Well, let's find you a new home.

Aren't any other turtle caves in Green

Meadow?Mine was it. So don't try and

change my mind. I don't believe

it. He really is leaving. I'm gonna

miss him. Hey, where's Crusty

going?Crusty leave us for good?

I know. If we fix up his cave like new,

then maybe we can convince him to come

back. Yeah. I guess this means

we gotta work. I go with Crusty. I

change his mind. You'll see. He come back

to see fixed cave.

Smell that ocean air, Scat.

Ocean air tastes salty. Well, that's

the point, Scat. This kind of air is real

good for you. Actually, living by the

ocean won't be so bad. Great

view. Glorious sunsets.

Plenty of water, leads to eat. Hey,

did you hear that?Yeah, what?

That!

Hang on, Scat! It's gonna be a rough ride!

You all right?

Scat all wet.

I think maybe we should forget the beach

and look someplace else. Yeah,

someplace more dry, like Green

Meadow. Nope. Gotta keep looking.

You want to dry?This is dry.

Oh, Scatwall, don't like

dry. Please, we go home now.

Wait. We haven't checked out the cave.

Cave?Cave?What cave?

This one. Caving ground?

Yep. Gotta admit, sure is

quiet around here. Yeah,

and hot. Plenty of shade in

here.

Sand tooth!

Well, what do you know?A tree cave.

Not many of those around. It looked dark

in there. Caves are always dark,

Scat. It's what you do with them that

counts. Hmm, nice grass growing in

here. Not great for crusting,

but me, oh Eat Grass, is starving.

What is it, Scat?Happy food!

I think we've finally found our home,

Scat.

Quiet, peaceful, good

food. Nothing to bother us

now.

Sounds more like we're in trouble!

Come on, Trusty. We go back to Green

Meadow now. No,

no, noThere's not a good home

there for me. But

but don't Trusty miss friends?

Yes, I miss them, but I have to

find a new home. Do you

miss them, Scat?Yes.

Then you hurry back to them. Give them my

regards. Maybe I'll...

I'll see you around sometime. But

Scat will miss Crusty. Go

on, Scat. It'll be dark soon.

I hope Scat can change Crusty's mind.

He'll love the way we're fixing up his

case.

This boulder rolling is making my dolls

soar! Aw, you want me to kiss

him?No! Just kidding! Scat

back! Oh, where's Krusty?Is

he behind you?Uh-uh. Krusty's

not coming back. He's gotta come

back. We're fixing up his cave. And we're

his friends. So let's finish

the cave and then we'll go find him.

No, no, noYou're wasting time with those

little roots. You gotta get the big one.

Watch me.

This one's in deep.

Be careful, flapper.

the hardest!

Ah, this is the life.

Finally, a real cave I can call

home.

Fresh spring water. Makes the old bones

feel young again.

Sounds like someone's outside.

Well, maybe I'll have company for dinner.

Not a soul in sight. I thought for sure

I heard someone.

Ah, there you are. Hi

there. I just moved in.

You want to join me for supper?

Guess I'm all alone now.

Wonder if Scat made it back okay.

Wonder if I'll ever see all of them

again. Wonder if I'll ever see anyone

else again. Never thought I'd miss

Green Meadow so much. All that

noise, all those critters,

all my friends. Oh.

Hi, ya frap!

Crusty! Crusty! Crusty,

you're back! Yes, I, uh, I wanted to make

sure that this cat got back all right.

You're home just in time! In time for

what?Your cave is all fixed.

Come on, Crusty. You won't believe all

the work I did.

Uh-oh. That pesky tree root is still

here. Flapper, no!

You're not gonna leave again, are you,

Crusty?You

know, I just realized...

home isn't just a place, Shyla. It's

where your friends are, too.

Oh,
