Mr. Moll and the Chocolate Factory (2017) - full transcript

(GENTLE MUSIC)

Subtitles by explosiveskull

NARRATOR: Here
in lovely Marmlikon,

Mr. Moll has lived
his whole life long.

He works up at the
factory high on the hill

for all to see, where all
the best of this and that

is blended into chocolate.

(MAJESTIC MUSIC)

Far and wide, Wise's
chocolates are found.

In far-off China,
they're quite renowned.

Moll and his family
you're bound to meet



at number seven Garden Street.

It seems that all's
still hushed and calm,

but will it stay
that way for long?

The children doze
in the morning sun,

their dreams of
cotton candy spun.

Next door, it's all a cacophony,

as Papa snores in symphony.

(SOFT SNORING)

(ALARM CLOCK RINGS)

Responsible Willy likes
the clank of pennies

in his piggy bank.

He's saving up to buy
a bike, not like Fritz,

that rowdy tyke.

Evi loves her dog of plush.



If only it could really ruff.

(DOG BARKING)

High up from his attic seat,

Fritz is scanning
'cross the street.

Where should he aim
his arrow and bow?

The garden gnome!

The perfect goal.

Now Mama wants to
get to cooking,

But it seems that something's
not quite working.

'Cause all that's
dripping from the sink

is just the tiniest
little plink.

(PLAYFUL MUSIC)

(SOFT CHUCKLING)

Our gallant Moll,
not one to shrink,

crawls 'neath the
sink and gets to work.

But where has all
the water gone?

Moll grabs his
drill and forges on.

He nearly knocks
his house to bits.

Will he decide to call it quits?

(EXPLOSION BOOMS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

But our tale is only
getting started.

I'll go get Fritz!

NARRATOR: It isn't one
for the faint-hearted.

Where kids are the
ones who save the day.

EVI: Fritz, breakfast!

NARRATOR: And grownups
act like babes at play.

(GROANING)

(YELLING)

MR. GRIMM: Oh!

Oh, Mr. Grimm!

Help me, I've been shot!

That's assault on
an officer! (GROANS)

I've been shot!

It's a scandal!

The guilty parties must be taken

- into custody at once!
- Hold on.

I'll get you down.

(YELLING)

(GROANING)

Oopsie.

Are you hurt?

Aha!

The Corpus delicti!

Or should I say: the
criminal's weapon.

Do you have any idea who
fired this, Mr. Moll?

- No idea.
- No idea?

Nope.

I've been working
the whole time.

Our water's out.

I've been looking for
the leak in the pipes.

Look.

We can't get a single drop.

Oh!

Oh!

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to, I...

(GROANING)

I didn't meant to.

- Yoo-hoo, water's on!
- Yes, yes, I know.

- Hello, Mr. Grimm.
- Hello.

You do know that you need
a permit to mess around

with the water pipes, right?

I didn't know that.

I'm really sorry.

I'll let it slide this time.

But only because I have
important things to do.

Just wait until I find
that whippersnapper.

Oh!

(PLAYFUL MUSIC)

It wasn't my fault.

I wasn't even aiming for him.

So then?

At the neighbor's dog.

That's not true!

Besides it's only
made of rubber.

It's still dangerous.

You can't shoot animals.

I didn't shoot an animal!

I shot Mr. Grimm.

Yes!

That's even worse!

What'll happen if he finds out?

You'll go to jail!

He's never found
anything out, ever!

That's bad logic, Fritz.

Now now, you can
argue all you want,

but if you don't get a move on,

you'll be late for school,

and you'll be late for work.

Better get to it!

(GROANING)

(PLAYFUL MUSIC)

Alright, gentlemen.

Let's talk.

I'll get right to the point.

Marmot sales are lagging.

That's to say: Our
chocolate's not bringing

in enough dough.

Sure it's a tough market.

And it's a global market.

But, as Conrad Wise would say:

"There are no problems, only
opportunities in disguise."

Now then: How do we
increase our efficiency?

What can we do?

What should we do?

What will we do?

You've got the floor.

Yes, Moll?

You don't have to
raise your hand.

We're not in school.

I think people don't
like, our chocolate anymore

because we don't put as much
effort into it these days

as we used to in the old days.

I see.

Yes, but I have
an idea for how

to make our marmots the
best in the world again.

First of all, we'll up
the milk chocolate by 24%.

And then we'll add two
more millimeters of

white chocolate around the ears.

We'll add some scrumptious
strawberry flavor to the nose.

And a little smidge
of lemon to the tail.

And that's the new chocolate
marmot from Wise's Chocolates!

The best the world
has ever seen.

Aha.

(SNIFFING)

It's a nice idea, Moll.

Mmm.

But no.

Yes, but I haven't
told you everything yet.

It's too much work.

We need to be more efficient,

- not more expensive.
- But in time,

- when people notice that...
- There's no time!

I want results,
and I want 'em now.

So, new strategy.

We don't make better
chocolate marmots,

we make more chocolate marmots.

Voila.

Quantity over quality.

Our new goal: 10,000
marmots ready by Monday.

We already got an
order from Shanghai.

In China.

10,000 by Monday?

But!

That's impossible.

Impossible imschmossible.

You've just got to run
the machine faster.

But then the
chocolate won't be mixed

long enough, and...

You think they're
gonna care in China?

Listen.

I'm gonna tell you something.

These days, you can
sell anyone anything.

As long as there's a lot of it.

Capeesh?

What is it?

Go on.

Get to work.

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(CREAKING)

(BEEPING)

WORKER: Oh!

It's so fast!

10,000 marmots by Monday.

How will we manage?

We've got to manage.

We've got to.

(GENTLE MUSIC)

FRITZ: I'm always the
one who gets in trouble.

WILLY: 'Cause
you're always the one

- doing something stupid.
- Uh-uh.

Guys!

Look at this!

Wow.

Colossal Houndini,
the Flying Pooch.

Oh, how sweet.

Look who we have here.

Whaddaya want?

Whaddaya think?

Empty your bags.

Empty our bags?

Okay.

Are you nuts?

Cut that out.

What's up with you?

Waiting on an invitation?

Forget it.

Excuse me?

Ow!

Are you insane?

(GRUNTING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)

- No!
- Chewing gum,

- marbles, Band-Aids.
- Let me down!

Let me down!

Boring!

Ah!

A Swiss Army knife, cool!

Give him his knife back!

It was a Christmas present!

How sweet.

I'm getting the
sniffles already.

Do something!

Something like what?

- Give me my knife!
- You're so mean!

And you're bigger than us.

Why don't you just
leave us alone?

We didn't do anything to you.

No, don't!

Let go of me!

You'll pay for this!

You'll pay 100 times over!

No, don't!

Help me!

(LAUGHING)

No, help me!

(GROUP APPLAUDING)

This is Conrad Wise,

the founder of our
famous chocolate factory.

He brought it into
the modern era

and made it the world's best.

He wasn't just a
great businessman,

he was a great man.

Industrious, rigorous, and fair.

Today, his company
ships chocolate marmots

around the world.

From Tanzania and
Tajikistan to Mongolia

and even China, as we see here.

Today, Conrad Wise is an old man

and has no more
contact with society.

He still owns the company,

but Mr. Schlock now
runs it for him.

- Hey, that's our dad!
- That's right.

Ha!

I must be seeing things.

And where have you been?

Uh, in the dumpster.

In the dumpster?

Yeah, but it's not our fault!

We were mugged!

By those two over there!

What?

That's such a nasty lie!

They mugged us!

Not us them.

That's not how it was!

(JACKIE SOBS)

Jackie.

Don't cry.

I'm sure it's all
a misunderstanding.

You nasty liar!

That's enough, Fritz!

First, you come late,
then you blame other kids

for it, and now you
want to hit Jackie.

That behavior is unacceptable.

It's just unacceptable.

(SOMBER MUSIC)

EVI: So?

What does it say?

Whaddaya think?

That our parents
have to go to school

and listen to Miss Stern
complain about us again.

It's not fair.

I think we should just
throw this letter away.

Are you nuts?

That'll just make
everything worse.

Got a better idea?

I think we should
talk to Mom and Dad.

Explain it to them.

They'll never believe us.

No one ever does!

- Even if they do believe
us: Jackie and Johnny

will get in trouble,

and then they'll get
us back for it double.

Gimme that.

Yeah!

(PLAYFUL MUSIC)

Yeah!
(SIGHING)

(CHUCKLING) Hm?

Oh.

MRS. MOLL: Ta-da-da-da!

Oh!

Huh, whaddaya think?

What?

About my new beachwear?

I bought it special
for Bad Zurzach.

(CHUCKLES) What?

Bad Zurzach?

Yes, the wellness retreat
with the ladies' group.

Did you forget?

Oh!

No, no, no, no.

No worries.

(GIGGLES) Yes, and what are
you going to do this weekend?

Can we go to the circus?

To see Colossal Houndini!

The Flying Pooch.

He's a sensation!

Can we go, Daddy?

Please?

Ah, alright.

To celebrate our
Saturday together,

we'll all go to the circus.

To see the Flying Pooch.

Thank you, Daddy!

(UPBEAT MUSIC)
(CHUCKLING)

(PHONE RINGS)

Moll, quality control.

How's it going, Moll?

Uh, yes.

Stellar.

Listen up.

I heard you're going to
the circus on Saturday.

Yes.

Why?

Excellent.

Idea: Wanna take
my kids with you?

- What, I mean, why?
- Yeah, my wife's going

to Bad Zurzach on that
wellness blah, blah, blah.

Yes, yes, mine too.

And I've got a meeting
Saturday afternoon.

Super important.

Can't be moved.

It's about the future
of the company.

So: You, my kids, circus.

Got it?

No, I wanted to, I mean.

Okay, I guess I can ask my kids.

(CHUCKLES) Good one.

Ask your kids.

Listen, Moll.

I thought about your
marmot plans again.

Not a bad idea.

Oh, yeah?

Really?

MR. SCHLOCK: Yeah.

Once we finish up
the Shanghai job,

I'll talk to Mr. Wise about it.

Okay?

- Mr. Wise himself?
- That's what I said.

He listens to me.

I think this could be
your big chance, Moll.

Just imagine it: A
raise, a bigger office,

maybe even one with windows.

Whaddaya think, huh?

That sounds amazing.

Thanks, Mr. Schlock.

Great.

I'll bring my kids by your
place around noon on Saturday.

See you then.

(DIAL TONE BEEPS)

Not on your life!

What?

Why not?

- 'Cause they're dirty rats!
- Hey!

Watch your mouth.

But it's true.

They're so mean to us!

Yesterday, they mugged us
and put me in a dumpster.

A dumpster?

Well, I can hardly believe that.

- But it's true!
- I don't know, Fritz.

Did you provoke them?

Not a chance!

I'm just saying.

You're no angel, Fritz.

And there are two sides

to every fight.

I'm not going to the
circus with those rats.

I'd rather move to Australia.

We go to the circus
together or not at all.

D'ya hear me?

Fritz!

(DOOR SLAMMING)
(SIGHS)

EVI: Fritz, please.

FRITZ: It's out
of the question.

But you heard what Dad said.

Either we go together
or not at all.

Then not at all!

You're so mean.

And selfish!

I mean, Do you
seriously think Dad

is doing this
'cause he wants to?

What?

Taking Jackie and
Johnny to the circus.

I bet his boss is making him.

That's right.

And if we don't help Dad
now he'll lose his job.

And then we won't
have any more money

and we can't go on vacation.

That's silly.

Fritz, please.

It's only for two hours.

Please.

All right!

But I'm not saying
a word to them.

Thank you, Fritz.

You're the best brother
in the whole world.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

Now then I packed
savory pastries for lunch

in the blue bin.

The sauce is in the yellow one.

No, orange.

'Cause yesterday's beef
is in the yellow one.

You can warm it up for dinner.

And for dessert,
you've got apple cake.

But careful now!

'Cause Willy's allergic.

(HORN HONKS)
Oh!

They're here!

WOMAN: Wo-hoo, hello!

Woo-oo!

(WOMEN CHEERING)

Yeah, I'm coming!

so the orange is?

I've got to run, darling.

- You'll be alright alone?
- Oh yes, yes.

I could do it blindfolded.

(CHEERING)

- Have a nice time!
- Bye, bye.

- Bye!
- Bye, Mom!

- Bye!
- Bye!

WILLY: Bye!

Moll, what's up.

How are ya?

Hi, Mr. Schlock.

Hi, Mr. Moll.

Ah!

Hi Jackie, Hi Johnny.

How are you?

I'm so excited for the circus.

Uh-huh, so are we.

So gimme a call if
anything comes up.

Don't let these two
get outta hand, okay?

Always show 'em who's boss.

And you two do as
Moll says, okay?

Yes, Daddy.

Alright.

Have fun.

I will, Mr. Schlock.

So (CHUCKLES) this is gonna
be a great day, right?

I'm so excited for the circus.

(YELLING)
(UPBEAT MUSIC)

Yay!

Come over here, kids!

Daddy, Daddy, I really
wanna see the Flying Pooch.

Yes, yes, the Flying Pooch.

Kids, should we get
some cotton candy first?

KIDS: Yeah!

ANNOUNCER:
Attention, attention!

Would Mr. Moll please
come to the ticket booth?

I repeat!

Mr. Moll, please proceed to
the ticket booth immediately.

Wait here, kids.

I'll be right back, huh?

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

Oh, now I'm really scared.

For me?

- Yeah.
- Thank you.

Hello?

Mr. Moll?

It's Klutz.

You need to come in right away.

The machine isn't running.

(SOMBER MUSIC)

(SIGHING)

Just turn it on again!

Yes, I tried, but
nothing happens!

I think one of the
gears is sticking.

What should I do now?

Did you restabilize the
pressure in the flow valve?

Flow valve?

Klutz, don't touch a thing.

Stay right there.

Eh I'll call you back.

Okay.

Got it.

Klutz out.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

- For you.
- Ah!

Lands alive!

MAN: More play, less talk.

What is it?

Uh, it's Moll from
quality control.

We've got a problem.

With the kids?

No, no, in the factory.

The machine isn't running.

Klutz just called me.

So, take care of it.

But I'm at the circus
with your kids...

Listen, Moll, what
part of important meeting

didn't you understand?

- I know, but...
- No buts!

The production line's
gotta get moving ASAP!

If we don't wrap up the
Chinese order on Monday,

I'll hold you
personally responsible.

Goodbye.

Listen up, kids.

Here are your tickets.

Go on in and I'll
be right there.

What?

But why?

Where are you going?

I have to run to the factory.

But Dad, the show's
about to start!

I won't be long.

Here some money
for cotton candy.

But share, okay?

- Okay.
- I'm off.

I'll take that.

Hey give that back!

Chill out, buddy.

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

(GIGGLING)

Hey, you!

(SNORING)

Huh?

Hello?

Mr. Moll!

- Finally.
- Klutz, what did you do?

Nothing!

Not a thing!

It just won't work anymore.

(BEEPING)

Ah!

Ah!

There.

There's something
blocking the gears.

That's not good.

We've got to sound the alarm!

We've got to, uh no!

- What?
- Have you lost your mind?

The alarm is to be used
in emergencies only!

Yes, but isn't
this an emergency?

Yes, I know, I know.

I have an idea.

(MAJESTIC MUSIC)

Mr. Moll?

Hello?

Mr. Moll?

(BUBBLING)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Here!

I've got it!

Here, got it.

A hazelnut?

How did that get
into the gears?

It doesn't matter!

We need to turn the
machine back on.

Okay.

Understood.

Now go!

We lost too much time.

We'll never be able to
finish the order for China.

Then we've just got to run
the machines even faster.

I don't think
this is a good idea.

I really don't.

It'll be fine.

We just have to make sure
the pressure in sector B

doesn't get too high.

And if it does, just
switch the offset

lever in the chocolate
vat and connect flow

valve B into the cooling
unit in sector A.

Got it?

Yeah, sure.

Okay.

I've got to get back to my kids.

Have a nice weekend.

Oh.

See you, Mr. Moll.

(CROWD LAUGHING)

Want some?

(CROWD LAUGHING)

Look up there!

It's a flying zebra!

What?

Where?

TOGETHER: Huh?

(LAUGHING)

D'you got a screw loose?

Let's go, Johnny!

Fritz!

Hey, outta my way!

Hold it right there!

We've got to help him!

I said from the start
that this wasn't a good idea.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Just come on already!

Come on, hurry up!

(JOHNNY GROANS)

Oh.

(MISCHIEVOUS MUSIC)

- Hurry up!
- Fritz?

Fritz!

Fritz?

Hmm.

Fritz!

(BARKING)

(WHIMPERING)

Colossal!

Did they lock you up?

You poor baby.

You want out, don't you?

What are you whining
about, ya dumb mutt?

Our show's about to start.

(CHUCKLES) I mean,
sweet little doggie.

Good Colossal.

Look, Papa Rasputin
has treats for you.

He's a little nervous.

For his show.

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

(ALARM RINGS)

PREFORMER:
Better hurry, guys.

- Come on.
- Where is he?

I'm sure he's hiding
here somewhere.

Yeah, but where?

- Where is he now?
- How should I know?

- What do we do now?
- What do you think?

We find him!

Look over there
behind the suitcases.

He's gotta be around
here somewhere.

Yeah!

BOTH: Huh?

There!

Now we got him.

(GRUNTING)

Ugh!

Fritz!

I know you're in there!

Fritz!

Ladies and gentlemen,
children of all ages,

come one, come all
to Circus Pompinelli!

(CROWD APPLAUDS)

Prepare to be amazed
by an afternoon

filled with fun, excitement,

and spectacular feats!

Jackie?

- Full of magic and mystery!
- You okay, Jackie?

What are you doing here?

- My sister.
- Get out of here, you rascal!

Out!

In you go.

POMPINELLI: And now, it's
time for our main attraction!

The Flying Pooch!

Colossal Houndini!

Huh?

You stupid mutt!

Get back here right now!

POMPINELLI: But enough talk!

It's time to see the flying
wonder for yourselves!

He's not here.

- Let's count down together!
- Hey!

POMPINELLI: One, two, three!

No, don't!

(CROWD GASPS)
(JACKIES SCREAMS)

(CROWD GASPS)

(CHICKENS CLUCK)

Help me!

Have you all gone
crazy, you idiots!

- I'll get you for this!
- Goodness gracious, child.

Huh?

You're all a bunch of idiots.

- Are you okay?
- You'll regret this.

Oh, yeah, you will!

What were you thinking?

- Help me!
- Fritz!

Did you see?

Wasn't it awesome?

Have you lost your mind?

And where's Evi?

Huh?

I thought she was with you?

I thought she was with you.

Evi!

I don't think Rasputin
is nice to Colossal.

Poor doggie.

He's a real sweetheart.

He wants to come home with me.

Yeah, but he can't.

Now take him back.

- No!
- Evi!

Do it!

(SIREN BLARES)

I think we should have this
conversation somewhere else.

EVI: Colossal, hurry!

Is the show over?

Yes well, it was canceled.

Just imagine: Someone
shot a little girl

out of the cannon!

A girl?

Yes!

This never happened
in the old days.

Let's start over: This
boy stole your cotton candy

and hid it in the cannon.

Uh, no.

It was him who
hid in the cannon.

Koller, stay on track.

I'm investigating.

Jackie, what's wrong?

Where are the others?

Aha Mr. Moll.

You know this girl?

Write that down.

Of course.

She's Jackie Schlock.

What happened here?

An as-yet-unknown assailant
stole this girl's cotton candy

and then shot her through
the tent with the help

of a cannon.

But in the process,

and this is a key detail,

he lost this shoe.

So!

Now I want you to think.

Do you know this boy?

Have you seen him before?

Do you know his name?

Take your time.

Take all the time you need.

No.

I have no idea.

I've never seen him before.

Help!

Mr. Pompinelli!

Mr. Pompinelli!

Something horrible has happened.

Colossal is gone!

Disappeared.

I think he was kidnapped.

- What?
- Yeah.

This is all I have left of him.

Colossal.

- Colossal.
- Oh, lands alive!

We're ruined!

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

Who's this Colossal?

Hm?

(WHIMSICAL MUSIC)

Can't you just let it go?

We should negotiate.

Maybe then they'll
leave us alone.

You can't negotiate with rats.

You have to demand
respect to get it.

Or to get a real beating!

Willy, you're such a wimp.

I'm not a wimp.

I'm a realist.

JACKIES: It was so
nice of you to pick us up.

I don't know what we would
have done if you hadn't come!

(WATER SPLASHES)

(GASPING)

Fritz!

(GASPING)

Ugh.

But I thought it was Jackie!

Uh-huh, so you can
dump a bucket of water

on Jackie's head, huh?

I was only...

And you can shoot her out
of a cannon at the circus?

It was all in self-defense!

Self-defense?

Bah.

You should be grateful

she didn't rat you
out to the police.

What?

And now you're
going to apologize.

Not a chance.

Oh, yes you will.

No!

Fritz, I'll tell
you one last time.

You apologize right now, or
you're grounded for two weeks!

But that's not fair!

Fine.

Three weeks.

What?

Four weeks.

- But...
- Five weeks.

Okay, whatever.

- I'm sorry.
- What?

I wanna hear it.

I'm sorry I shot
you out of the cannon

It's okay.

No big deal.

I'm sure you didn't
do it to be mean.

Okay.

Now shake hands.

Now then, that wasn't so bad.

It feels good to be
friends again, right?

- (BARKING)
- Eh?

Um.

Ah!
(SIRENS BLARING)

What's that dog doing here?

Attention!

This is an important
announcement from the police.

Colossal Houndini
the Flying Pooch,

star of Circus Pompinelli,
has been kidnapped!

Information resulting in
the kidnapper's capture

will be rewarded with
2,500 gold coins,

as well as 10 kilos
of cotton candy.

Attention, attention!

This is an important
announcement from the police.

Colossal Houndini
the Flying Pooch...

10 kilos of cotton candy.

Don't worry, Colossal.

You're safe with us.

But Evi that's not okay.

You can't just take
any dog you want.

That's what I
said from the start.

But they're really mean
to him at the circus.

I saw it!

The mean old trainer keeps
him locked in a cage.

Right, Colossal?

Okay listen to me.

We have to take the dog back.

You heard it: The police
are looking for him.

(WHIMPERING)

Come.

Give him to me, please.

Stay strong, Colossal.

I'll come visit you soon.

(WHIMPERING)

(SOMBER MUSIC)

Shouldn't we come along?

Just in case?

Hands off!

You just want the reward.

What?

That's a nasty lie!

That's enough, Fritz.

No one is getting a reward.

I'm taking the dog
back, and you, you guys

clean up this mess.

Understood?

Yeah, Mr. Moll.

(BARKING)

(GASPING)

We have some
unfinished business.

Grab him!

(GROWLING)

(CACKLING)

As head of this investigation,

I can assure the
residents of Marmlikon

that we will use
all of the resources

that are available to us
to bring the kidnapped dog

to safety as quickly as
possible and to bring

the guilty parties to judgment
swiftly and judiciously.

(CROWD APPLAUDS)

Thank you.

Thank you, ladies and gentleman.

Thank you for your support
in these difficult times.

The next show will begin
in just a few moments!

Yoo-hoo, Mr. Moll!

Hello!

Hello, Miss Stern.

Did you hear the Flying
Pooch was kidnapped?

Yes, truly terrible.

What kind of horrible
person would do

such a thing?

Yes.
(DOG BARKING)

- (COUGHING)
- Are you okay?

Yes, yes.

Just a little cold.

- Nothing serious.
- Ah!

But what I wanted to
ask you, Mr. Moll,

did you get my letter?

Your letter?

Yes, the letter I wrote you.

Thank you.

Thank you for the letter.

Very nice letter.

Uh, nice?

I mean, I don't know.

I thought we should talk about...

Yes, we should.

We really should!

But not now.

Right now is a bad time.

I mean, I don't feel
so good right now.

(DOG BARKS)
(COUGHING)

See you later!

Maybe next time Ms. Stern.

- Goodbye!
- Goodbye.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Ah!

Yes, yes you poor pooch.

I'm sorry too, but this
is the way it has to be.

(WHIMPERING)

Oh.

Oh!

Oh no.

(WHIMPERING)

MAN: Better hurry, guys!

(BARKING)

So what should
your punishment be,

you cotton candy thief?

We could make him
eat his own shoes.

That's boring.

I have a much better idea.

We'll let you go.

Under the condition that
you and your stupid brother

get that dog back.

- What?
- But why?

And then we can
collect the reward!

Nice work, genius.

You won't get your
paws on Colossal.

So, Fritz?

Whaddaya say?

Have we got a deal?

Not on your life!

So then I guess I
have to go to the police

and tell Officer Grimm
who it is who's shooting

poor little girls out of
cannons at the circus.

And stealing dogs.

Huh?

No!

What is it?

Fine then.

I'll do it.

Nice.

Johnny, untie them.

Just the two boys.

The girl stays here.

As a hostage.

(LAUGHING)

(BARKING)

Huh?

Well, lookie here.

Just you wait.

Ouch!

You wanna bite me now?

That's just going too far.

(BARKING)

Shoot.

Are you sure you wouldn't
rather go to the police?

Shh!

Alright, friend.

Dogs who don't listen
learn their lessons.

I'll show you how we shut up
a mutt who bites his master!

(BARKING)

(LAUGHING)
(KNOCKING)

- Rasputin?
- What now?

FRITZ: The maestro
wants to see you.

Not now.

He says it's urgent.

Ugh.

Wait here.

Oh, I can't believe this.

Stupid mutt. (GROANS)

Are you really sure
this is a good idea?

Got a better one?

Here, take him.

Come on, let's go.

I said right from the start...

The maestro wants
to see to me, huh?

FRITZ: Colossal, come!

You, hey!

Come back! (GROANING)

(YELLS)

(SCREAMING)

(BARKING)

(LAUGHING)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(GROANS)

Yes!

RASPUTIN: Ah, I've been hit!

That really hurts!

I'll get you kids!

(EXOTIC MUSIC)

(GASPING)

(CROWD GASPS)

(CROWD APPLAUDS)

Bravo!

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

- (YELLING)
- What are you doing here?

I'm sorry, I...

Psst.

- Tada!
- Ooh!

- (CROWD APPLAUDING)
- Take a bow!

(LAUGHS) Thank you!

(CROWD LAUGHS)

Take a bow! (LAUGHS)

(CROWD APPLAUDS)

(CROWD LAUGHS)

WOMAN: Mr. Moll?

Phone for you.

Hi, it's Moll.

Mr. Moll?

It wasn't such a good idea to
let the machine run so fast.

It wasn't a good idea at all.

It's making really funny noises.

Did you connect flow
valve B to the cooling unit

in sector A like I said?

Yes.

I mean I think so.

I don't know.

And what about
the offset lever?

Oh, the offset button.

No, No, Klutz!

Not the button.

The lever, the lever!

Lever, lever!

The lever!

Bottom left!

Ah, there!

Ah, now.

Thank goodness.

Well done, Klutz.

Thanks, Mr. Moll.

- You're the best.
- Yes, yes, yes.

I know.

I know, I know.

WOMAN: Make your
phone calls at home!

(SCREAMING)

chocolate bunny.

No, don't!

Don't!

Stop!

That's mine!

Stop it!

Leave that alone.

(GASPING)

Just look at that.

Sweet little doggie,
little sweet pooch.

Give it here.

First, Evi.

First, the dog.

Both at once.

(DOG WHIMPERS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

That's right, come
to me, sweet thing.

Bye, losers.

Snooze you later.

Thanks a billion.

(DOG WHIMPERS)

Colossal.

(SOMBER MUSIC)

MR. GRIMM: Let's
go over this again.

First the dog was gone.

Then he was back.

And then he was kidnapped
again by two kids.

Is that right?

No, no, no.

They were no kids.

They were monsters!

I tried to stop them, but
they shot an arrow at me!

You mean this thing?

Aha!

The Corpus delicti.

I've seen this arrow before.

Koller!

It looks like we're dealing
with a serial offender!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Well, well, the
same, exact weapon.

If we put together a profile,

what does it tell us about
the person who did this?

Who could've kidnapped the dog?

Moll's kids.

We rescued him.

They were harassing
him pretty bad.

So can we get our reward now?

2,500 gold coins.

And 10 kilos of cotton candy.

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

Yoo-hoo!

Mr. Moll!

Mr. Moll.

You were so funny at
the circus earlier.

I didn't know you were in it!

Yeah, neither did I.

Anyway, what I wanted to
tell you about the letter...

Yes, your letter.

- I think another time might...
- I'm really worried.

- Oh, I'm worried too.
- About your kids, Mr. Moll.

Why?

What's going on with my kids?

Yes, but that's
what I wrote you

in my letter?

Holy smokes.

What happened here?

What's wrong?

And where are Jackie and Johnny?

They're taking Colossal back.

What?

But I just took him
back the circus.

Yes, but then Fritz and Willy
had to go and get him back.

What?

You got the dog back?

Yeah, but only
because Jackie made us!

'Cause of that stupid reward.

And because of the
cannon and the police

and 'cause Rasputin
is mean to animals.

And 'cause they're dirty rats!

Now Fritz, I've
had enough of that.

What's the meaning
of these accusations?

Why don't you ever believe us?

Because it's hard
to believe you three.

You didn't even show me the
letter your teacher gave to you.

If you want people to
believe you, you have to stop

pointing fingers at
other people, or else!

Or else what?

I'm always the one
who gets in trouble.

whether I did
anything wrong or not!

Fritz, you get
back here right now!

Did you hear me?

Fritz!

(GROANS)

Evi?

Willy?

(PHONE RINGS)

What's gone wrong this time?

Yes?

Moll!

Hellolilo!

I wanted to see if everything
was running smoothly.

Ah, yes, everything is great.

Did you find what
I packed for lunch?

MR. MOLL: Uh, yes, well I...

Listen, I forgot to
tell you in the freezer,

I've got a homemade
ice cream cake.

Don't eat it!

It's for tomorrow.

We'll enjoy it together
when I'm back, okay?

And, are you having a nice time?

Yes, I am.

I really am.

INSTRUCTOR:
Excellent, and again!

WOMEN: Woo!

MRS. MOLL: Bye-bye!

(DIAL TONE BEEPS)

What are you doing?

Can't you see I'm packing?

But where do
you even wanna go?

Australia.

Anywhere but here.

Can you give this to Dad?

But Fritz, you can't
go just like that.

You're still just a kid.

When I grow up, I'll
come back for you.

You'll have to hold
out until then.

Okay?

Hold on a minute.

This is for you.

But what about
your new bicycle?

You need the money more now.

Thank you, Willy.

(SOMBER MUSIC)

Fritz?

Please come out now, Fritz.

Fritz?

He's not here anymore.

He went to Australia.

(WHIMSICAL MUSIC)

Ah,

Mr. Grimm?

Mr. Moll.

You're under arrest.

And your kids, too
for dog-napping.

(GASPING)

But, Mr. Grimm I
need to find my son.

Please.

That's out of the question.

The game is up, Mr. Moll.

But you're not
allowed to arrest us!

We're just kids!

Well, well.

I'm still in charge of
deciding what's allowed

and what isn't.

EVI: You should be
arresting Rasputin instead!

He's an animal abuser!

MR. GRIMM: Koller!

Take that as evidence!

Oh, but.

Ugh.

MR. GRIMM: So Fritz
ran off just like that?

And you expect me
to believe that?

Yes, it was all 'cause
of Jackie and Johnny!

They only wanted
the reward money.

Well, well.

And is that why you shot
the girl from the cannon?

No!

That happened earlier!

Jackie wanted
to beat Fritz up,

because they stole our
money and wouldn't give

us any cotton candy.

So you stole
cotton candy, too?

BOTH: No!

I mean, yes, but
it was our money!

MR. GRIMM: Money, what money?

BOTH: Dad, stick
up for us already!

Please, Mr. Grimm,

I'm sure we can talk about this.

They didn't mean any harm.

They're just kids.

Let me clear this up with them.

You'll do no such thing.

Slowly but surely, I'm
starting to get the impression

that you're incapable of
raising your own children!

How I raise my children
is none of your business.

Have you lost your mind?

That's evidence.

Evidence?

Don't make me laugh,
you, you, you,

you provincial patroller!

Koller!

Lock him up!

What, but...

I want you to lock him up!

And the kids as well!

- No daddy, no!
- No, please, no!

You can't do this!

I'm innocent!

EVI: You can't arrest us.

We're just kids!

I'm sorry, but an
order's an order.

Colossal!

Where are you going with him?

KOLLER: We've got to bring
him back to Rasputin.

But you can't do that!

Rasputin is so mean to him.

MR. GRIMM: Koller!

I'm very sorry.

Oh no!

(DOG BARKING)

(SOBBING)

This is for you.

For me?

WILLY: From Fritz.

Dear Dad, If you're reading
this, I'm already far away.

I'm going to Australia to
become a shark scientist.

It's better for everyone.

Sharks are dangerous
animals but they're fair.

Not like you.

Farewell, Fritz.

Am I really so unfair?

You never listen to us.

But that's not true.

I was only trying.

Alright.

Now tell me what happened.

And I'll listen.

Without any interruptions?

Without any interruptions.

I promise.

Well, so first off,
they tied Fritz to a pole

'cause they wanted
his Swiss army knife.

Then they put me in a dumpster,

but Miss Stern didn't believe me

and that's why she
wrote a letter,

and the letter fell in the drain

and we didn't know what to do.

and then we had to
give the dog to Jackie

so she'd let Evi go,

and then Jackie took
the dog to the police,

and then the police
came to our house.

(CROWD APPLAUDS)

And to honor these brave
souls who helped me catch

the dog-nappers,
I hereby present

the Marmlikon Award of Service.

Bravo!

Well done, well done!

And where's our reward, huh?

Reward?

2,500 coins in gold!

(CROWD APPLAUDS)

WILLY: then Jackie took
the dog to the police,

and then the police
came to our house

and that's why we're here now.

(SIGHS DEEPLY)

My oh my my.

So, what do we do now?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

- Please hurry!

This will never do.

- I have to get to the factory!
- Colossal!

Emergency rescue?

Police?

- Fire department?
- Look, there's the key!

Go on, bring it to us!

Good boy!

Yes!

Colossal, that's it!

Yeah!

Take it!

Yeah, bravo!

- Come!
- Hello!

- Hurry.
- Hello!

Mr. Grimm, it's an emergency!

Please!

It's a matter of life and death!

BOTH: Dad, Dad!

Ah!

Over here, too!

Hurry, hurry!

Kids!

Hurry on home.

I have to save the factory.

We're not going home.

We're coming with you.

What?

Someone has to
look out for you!

That's right!

(CROWD SCREAMS)

That way!

Hurry, get in!

Let's go!

Oh-ho-ho-ho!

Hey, look, get that!

- Gather around!
- Get in!

Hurry!

REPORTER: Did you get that?

Hey!

Where do you think you're going?

- You're arrested!
- Bye.

MR. GRIMM: My car!

Stop!

Stop right there!

- Stop right this instant!
- D'you get it?

Are you getting this?

You stinking mutt.

I'll turn you into hamburger!

Uh.

Uh, uh, I mean, uh.

Sweet doggie. (CHUCKLES)

Woof, woof, woof!

Hey!

Hey, what are you doing?

Don't you see?

The dog is gone.

If there's no doggie,
there's no reward!

Take those off!

Johnny!

We have to get that dog!

Let's go!

Hey!

That's my bike!

- Full speed ahead!
- Stop right now.

Stop right there!

In the name of the law!

Koller!

After them!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Full speed!

(SIGHING)

WILLY: You've
gotta drive faster!

It won't go faster!

Watch out!

- The curve!
- Yeah!

It's okay.

Fritz!

- It's Fritz!
- Where?

There!

Pull over, pull over!

Hurry!

Fritz!

Hurry, get in.

- Not on your life!
- Fritz, please.

I'm sorry.

Really.

Yeah right.

Just like that?

Come on now, Fritz.

I believe you.

I know I made a mess of things.

I should've listened to you.

I never should've made you go

to the circus with
those, with those...

With those?

With those rats.

(CHUCKLING)

Are you finished
schmoozing already?

We have to save the factory.

Come on, Dad!

- We've gotta go.
- Yes, yes, yes.

The residents are fearful.

There's total chaos as

Has there been an accident?

An attack?

A coup?

What are all these
people doing here?

My husband!

- It's still unclear...
- My children!

But one thing's for sure:
We're living in dramatic times

Ah, the main breaker.

What about the main breaker?

We can't get to it anymore.

It's much too dangerous.

Then we have to shut
down the nut chute.

get to that either.

Yes!

You did such a great job.

I'm so proud of you.

Moll!

What's going on?

Why isn't the machine running?

Well, because it's broken.

Isn't it obvious?

Broken?

Don't be ridiculous.

Production must be
resumed at all costs.

Stop!

Stop.

That's a very
dangerous thing to do.

Pah, you scaredy-cat.

It's just a little smoke.

(MACHINE ROARS)

No, it's not.

What're you doing?

The machine is running fine.

No, it's not.

It is, Mr. Moll.

No.

Yes.

No!

Yes!

Yes.

Oh.

You're a real
stick in the mud!

MR. WISE: Schlock!

Mr. Wise.

What a coincidence.

I was just coming to see you.

What's going on here?

Well.

Who are you?

Moll, quality control.

Moll, never heard of you.

I developed the revised
recipe so our marmots

will be the best
in the world again.

Why?

Since when aren't our marmots
the best in the world?

Uh, well.

(SPITS) That's disgusting.

Yes, yes, you see?

That's just what
I told Mr. Moll.

It's just shameful!

It's always quantity
over quality.

But he never listens to me.

- Is that true?
- No, no!

Of course not.

It's just the opposite.

I mean, just look at this, I
suggested upping the amount

of milk chocolate by 24%.

And then I was thinking

we should add two more
millimeters of white chocolate

around the ears.

Then we'll add some
scrumptious strawberry flavor

to the nose and a little
smidge of lemon to the tail.

A little smidge of lemon.

How ridiculous.

That's a pretty good idea.

Yes, yes, that's just
what I said to Mr. Moll.

You know it's it's
actually like this,

you could say the
whole idea was mine.

Right from the start.

But Mr. Moll just
expanded on it.

On my orders, obviously.

Mr. Schlock.

Yes?

You're fired.

But.

(SCREAMING)

There, now that's
taken care of.

Bravo, Mr. Wise.

You did a great job.

And now for you.

I need a new overseer.

A man of caliber.

Are you interested?

(GASPING)

That would be marvelous.

Thank you, Mr. Wise.

Well, you did just
save my factory.

Yeah.

But only thanks to my kids.

(CHUCKLING)

(GENTLE MUSIC)

(LAUGHING)

Wham, wham, wham.

Until he couldn't
do it any more.

Yeah, and then Jackie
couldn't get up any...

(GASPING)

(WOMEN YELLING)

Fritz, Evi, Willy, sweetie.

Is everything okay?

What happened?

Nothing, nothing.

Just a little alarm
at the factory.

I was so worried about you!

Dad saved the whole factory!

And we helped him!

And Dad is the new boss.

Oh, really?

My heroes.

(WOMEN APPLAUDING)

(SIGHS) Come on, let's go.

Oh.

My hero.

I said, drive, you saggy sock.

Don't brake.

Drive!

Yeah.

WOMEN: Yoo-hoo!

Stop!

Koller!

Turn around.

Follow that van!

We need to get that dog back.

Arrest them! (GROANS)

You know what?

Arrest them yourself.

Wha?

Wait, hey, stop right there!

KOLLER: Bye, bye!

NARRATOR: Officer
Grimm is left dumbfounded.

It seems his friends
have all absconded.

Perhaps he's finally
learned his lesson:

The Molls weren't deserving
of his aggression.

Colossal went home with
the Molls that day,

For even the maestro
was forced to say,

"This dog has got
some spark in him.

"A cannon is much
too dark and grim."

Rasputin never did reform, but
at least now, he's all alone.

The circus folk
all hate his guts.

They left him there
without much fuss.

(RASPUTIN WAILS)

Here joy and happiness abound.

And Mama loves the little hound.

Now that our pooch
has earned some fame,

he needs a new,
more fitting name.

Day in, day out, Colossal eats,

huge heaping plates
of potato chips.

He chews them up
and licks his lips.

That's why his
brand new name is...

KIDS: Chips!

NARRATOR: Mr. Moll just
gives a smile and rests

his weary legs awhile.

And now, once more,
tranquility reigns,

at least until
Fritz strikes again.
