The Adventures of Jurassic Pet: The Lost Secret (2023) Movie Script

Curtis, do you mind

giving us a moment?

I'll be

on the porch.

Well, you must be Curtis.

It's just a month, Wendy.

It's just-- Gran and I

already had plans,

just the two of us.

Look, I know how much

you love Gran, okay?

We all do.

But you need to start

spending time

with some other kids.

It's actually what sparked

your mother's great idea

about giving the kids

at the orphanage

some family time.

You know, a much-needed

Christmas break

they might not otherwise get.

And she thought that

it'd be good for you

if we hosted Curtis.

- But I--

- The holiday season

can be tough.

Especially if you have

no one to share it with.

Not everyone

has a family like you.

I know, it's just--

I don't wanna babysit

over Christmas break.

Curtis is only a few years

younger than you, Wendy.

He doesn't need

a babysitter.

He might just need

a big sister.

l mean, what are we

supposed to talk about?

Baseball? Bugs?

And what about Gran?

We have a routine.

Okay. Well,

I spoke with Gran,

and she said Curtis

is more than welcome

to hang out with you guys

this weekend.

She hasn't thought

about how this

complicates things.

I want you on your

best behavior, okay?

And treat Curtis

like family.

You guys just need

to find some common

ground, that's all.

Okay.

All right, let's get

going before Gran

gets mad. Come on.

- Hey. Ooh!

- Ah!

- Hey.

- Come on. That way.

- Hey, okay!

- Ooh!

Hey you did make sure

everything was tied down

good and tight, though?

- Yeah, I tied it down.

- Sweet.

- Okay.

- Tight.

Shit!

Dang, man!

Ah, Barney! Stop! Stop!

Get out the car.

Clyde!

I thought you said

everything was secure!

Uh, it was! It was.

It was. It was at first.

You do realize that the boss

will kill us if we lose

any of this stuff, all right?

No, man, it wasn't

even my fault, Barney!

Man, you had to hit

every pothole

on the road, man!

- You could've dodged that!

- What did--

I just--

Just help me get it back

in the truck, okay?

- Okay, man, okay!

- Okay?

- Sorry, okay.

- Okay.

Ohh!

No!

God, get the barrel

out the water!

Um, I just got these

new boots today, Barney.

I-I don't think

I wanna do that, man.

Get the barrel

out the water!

Okay, you don't gotta

yell at me. Relax.

Is all that blue stuff

supposed to be pouring out

that barrel like that?

I don't think so.

What we gonna do, man?

- We?

- Yeah.

But there's no "I"

in "spilt".

Ah.

- Yes, there is.

- I know.

- Yes, there is.

- I know.

- I got it.

- Okay.

What if we let all

that stuff in the barrel

spill in the lake,

and we take it back up

when it's lighter?

- Yeah, man,

I like that idea.

- I know.

That's smart,

that's smart.

Real good idea.

- Yep.

- Um...

- What we gonna tell boss?

- I'mma tell 'em you did it.

- What?

- Mm-hmm.

All right,

we'll see you in a few days.

The three of you

have fun, and try to stay

out of trouble, all right?

We're gonna have

a great time.

I can't guarantee

we won't find

trouble though.

All right.

Don't worry.

You're gonna be good

friends in no time.

I hope so.

"A baby velociraptor's skull

isn't fully developed until...

- they're six--"

- Hey, Curtis.

Why don't you join us?

We're looking over

our latest research.

I'm sure he's fine.

You'd probably just

find this boring, anyway.

Yeah, I'm good.

I'm just glad to be

out of the orphanage

for a little while.

Well, who's hungry?

I know I am. I think

I'll start dinner.

Would you like some help?

That'd be really

nice, Curtis.

Hey, Curtis?

Gran and I might not be

here tomorrow morning

when you wake up.

We have to go

visit a relative.

But I thought

we were staying here

for the weekend?

You are.

What am I

supposed to do?

We'll only be gone

for part of the day.

Don't worry about things

that don't concern you.

And don't bother my Gran

about any of this.

She already has a lot

to take in, you know?

Inviting a stranger

into her home

and everything.

It's for your own safety.

How about tacos?

My favorite.

We're coming!

What are you doing here?

I thought you said

you were visiting

relatives?

You can't be here!

- Wendy, it's okay.

- But, Gran, it--

I think we can

trust him.

How do you know?

Let's just say

I have a feeling.

Who would believe him,

anyway?

We can trust you,

can't we?

Yeah.

You're not just

saying that, are you?

You gotta mean it.

No-- I mean, yes!

Yes, you can trust me.

Lives depend

on that trust.

Yes, ma'am.

You must promise us.

Promise them that whatever

you see here today

must be kept secret.

Do you understand?

Yes, I promise!

Wait, did you say "them"?

Whoa!

Very funny.

No wonder you don't

have any friends.

I didn't ask

for you to come.

He's here now,

Wendy.

And you, as long as

you are with us, you are

part of this family.

No more bickering.

Sorry, Gran.

- Is that a real...

- Dinosaur?

He used to roam

these woods.

He died of old age

about 20 years ago.

That's impossible!

Dinosaurs went extinct

millions of years ago.

And if they were

in these woods, someone

would've seen them.

This thing is huge.

It's not a thing.

His name was Caesar.

This is crazy.

I'm going back

to the house and

calling the orphanage.

What was that?

This is Junior.

He's amazing!

H-how is this

even possible?

We're not sure why

or how, but the morning

after every full moon,

in this spot, a doorway

opens up for one day.

We're not sure if

it's a parallel world

or if it's our past,

but we know we have

to keep it a secret.

And now, Curtis, you are

one of the very few

who know about this.

Hey, Junior,

I brought you

a soccer ball.

Whoa! He's strong

for a little guy.

I got it!

Run! Run! Run!

No, no, no. Shh.

Stay calm.

He is gonna

eat me?

No.

He likes you.

He can tell.

You're a good person.

That's Albert,

and this is Mina.

Hello?

Oh, Albert,

Chris isn't coming.

Remember, he said his

goodbyes the last time

he was here?

His parents took

a job far away

and they had to move,

but he's doing great.

And he checks in with me

from time to time

and makes sure that

you are safe and happy.

He loves you.

Your friendship

is everything to him.

He was so happy that

he got to see Junior

before he had to go.

Mm-hmm. Ha!

Oh!

It's time for us to go.

It's a long hike back.

Albert, I will see you

in a month.

You and your family

be safe.

Sorry, Junior.

Next time.

So what is your

research about?

What we showed you today.

I'm working

on my newest book.

It's called The Secret

Lives of Dinosaurs .

And Wendy's been

helping me with it.

And if it's okay with her,

I'd like you to join us.

There's room on the cover

for one more name.

Yeah, that's fine.

All right,

tell me what to do.

First off, mom and dad

don't know anything

about this.

A book about dinosaurs, yes,

but real-life dinosaurs?

No.

Got it.

I won't tell anyone.

How did you find them?

One evening, I was out

for a walk in the woods,

and a mysterious man

appeared out of the fog.

- Were you scared?

- Yes!

At first, but there

was something about him.

A peace, a kindness

surrounded him.

And he told me that

it was time to pass

the secrets of the forest

to someone with virtue.

And just as I felt

the goodness in him,

he sensed in me a gentleness,

and trust, and love.

And those are the qualities

that I try to give

to my daughter

and to my granddaughter.

He showed me the wonders

that we shared with you today.

And he also gave me

something that he said

might come in handy.

What was that?

That's a secret

for another time.

All right, you two,

off to bed.

- Good night, Gran.

- Good night.

- Good night, Curtis.

Good morning, Gran.

Well, good morning,

you two.

- Curtis, did you sleep

all right?

- Well, I finally could.

I can't wait till the next

full moon to see 'em again.

Well, you won't have

to wait that long.

Come on out, little one.

Junior? Wait--

But how did he...?

Who knows? He must've

followed us home.

He's trapped here.

Oh, his parents

must be worried.

Well, it's my job to make sure

that he's safe

until the next full moon.

And you two can help me

while you're here.

And after that

we'll lay low, and...

Curtis and l can help out

after school.

Perfect.

Ohh.

Bye, kids!

Bye!

- Bye, Tadrina. Thank you.

- Bye, Mason. You are welcome.

Ow!

H-Help...

911, what's your emergency?

Junior? Wait--

Where'd you go? Junior...

Junior? Junior?

Mom?

- Mom.

- Gran.

Mom, hey.

Who-- Who is Junior?

I don't-- I don't know.

What happened to Gran?

She took a pretty nasty fall

but she's gonna be all right.

The doctor said that she's

gonna take some time to heal,

so she's staying with us

for a little while, okay?

Um...

- It's Christmas break.

- Yeah.

Curtis and I could

take care of Gran

at her house.

I think it's easiest

for everyone if she just

stays here with us.

- But, Dad--

- Wendy.

- Junior!

- Gran!

Mom. Mom, you keep

calling out for--

for Junior.

Who-- who's Junior?

No-- no one. I, uh--

Oh, I really think

I hit my head that hard.

And... ooh, and my leg.

- Ooh...

- See, Mom,

this is exactly why we

don't think you should be

staying out there all alone.

Olivia, I'm not that

far out of town.

I'm gonna be fine.

And as soon as I go home,

these two kids, they'll help.

Okay, Mom.

Maybe give me--

give me a minute

with them.

All right, let's go.

You can have one minute.

One minute, okay?

What happened

to Junior?

He must've gotten scared

when I fell and he ran out

the front door.

But he's gotta be around

my house somewhere,

don't you think?

You need to go find him

'cause he's just

too little to be out

there all by himself.

Don't worry, Gran,

we'll find him.

We'll find him.

- Come on, Curtis. Come on.

- Okay.

Junior!

Junior! Come on, buddy!

Look, I found something.

Ugh, he could be anywhere.

I think it's time I show you

the other secret

Gran was talking about.

It's not a flying robot?

Or freaky clown, is it?

Wendy, answer me!

Come on, Curtis.

Junior!

- Junior!

Come here, buddy,

it's Wendy! Junior!

This will take forever.

The forest is massive,

he could be anywhere.

Why don't we use

the rockets for extra speed?

I bet we could find him

in no time.

No, we would shoot past

so fast, everything

would be a blur.

We'd never be able

to find him that way,

trust me.

Well, Gran did make

one modification we could

use to help find Junior.

I just don't have that

much experience with it.

Let's do it!

Okay, hold on.

It's...

Ah.

Oh, you might wanna

put up your glasses.

Uh, Wendy?

- Wendy, there's a truck.

- Hold on.

- Wendy, there's a truck!

- Hold on.

Wendy, hurry up! We're--

- We're not gonna make it!

- We're gonna make it!

- No, we're not, Wendy.

There's a truck! Hurry up!

- Hold on!

- There's a truck!

- Hope you're not

afraid of heights!

What!?

You can open your eyes now.

Bet none of the other kids

are getting to do this

with their host families.

- Um...

- Can you keep it steady?

I thought you said

you could drive?

Drive yes, flying...

not so much.

Gran took me up

once before.

She said

I was a natural.

Natural disaster maybe.

Hey, you're not dead.

Have a little faith.

Everything will turn

out in the end the way

it's meant to be.

You're right.

I'm sorry, Wendy.

This is amazing.

- What does this button do?

- No! Don't--

- Whoa! Whoa!

- Oh, you've killed us!

We're gonna die! Oh, you--

Oh, you've killed us,

you fool!

Oh, it's all your fault,

we'll die!

Oh, we're gonna die!

It's all your fault!

Wait, why are

you laughing?

That one's not

connected to anything.

- What?

- But seriously,

don't touch anything.

You flip the wrong switch

and it could be bad.

Like, really bad,

like...

...bad.

- Um, but, Curtis?

- Yeah?

I do owe you

an apology.

For what,

scaring me?

No, that too,

but...

I realized when

you first arrived,

I might've been a little...

mean?

It's okay.

It's just, ever since

I was a little girl,

I heard all the stories

of the amazing adventures

with my mom and Gran.

Every summer, they would

travel the world

looking for ancient

artifacts and treasures.

It was something

they shared,

just the two of them.

I don't know,

I just kinda thought

that the dinosaurs

and the doorway was...

It was yours.

I get it.

But you came along

and Gran just kind of...

let you in.

Without asking me.

Well, anyways,

I'm sorry.

You're lucky

to have someone.

Especially family.

I would do anything

to talk to my parents

or grandparents, just once.

You hear that?

No, I don't

hear anything.

Hey, I think

I see Junior.

- What?

- Hold on.

Junior! Junior! Junior!

Junior! Junior!

It's okay!

Gran's okay!

She's been worried

about you.

We both have been.

Let's get you

home safe.

Did you find him?

Oh!

Junior!

You're so good.

I'm so glad you're back!

Down, down, down!

I thought I heard

you guys come in.

- Mmm, what's going on?

- Uh...

Ah, my leg's acting up

a little bit.

A little bit?

What the--

Ju, Ju, Ju--

- Oh, my gosh, what is that?

- Guys, get back!

- Get back behind me!

- Mason he's not

gonna hurt anyone!

How do you know that?

Because I know

his parents.

And they're gentle,

so is he.

What exactly is he, Gran?

A dinosaur.

Okay, Mom. Oh, my gosh.

We're gonna have

to call the doctor.

Liv, I am fine!

This is Junior.

But, Mom...

Liv, when have I ever

not told you the truth

about anything?

- Never?

- All right, then,

so here's the truth now.

There's a secret

doorway that opens

after every full moon

between here and

the land of dinosaurs.

I'm the guardian

of that doorway.

And Junior is trapped here

until the next full moon.

I've been looking after him

for over three weeks.

The next full moon

is in two days,

and then he can go home.

Tadrina,

this is just crazy.

But he is kinda cute.

Okay, look.

Junior can stay

here tonight.

But, tomorrow,

we're going to decide

what to do with him.

All right, now, everybody,

let's let Gran rest, okay?

Come on. Slowly.

Get some rest, Gran.

Hey.

I know this is difficult,

seeing your mother

like this.

And she is always

welcome to stay with us.

But that creature,

it can't stay here.

We don't know

what it is.

And as deputy mayor,

it's literally my duty

to make sure

that the citizens

of this community,

and my family,

are safe.

Tomorrow, I'm gonna

speak with the mayor,

and see if there's

any suitable place

to house Junior.

Maybe the zoo

will take him.

You-- you can't!

If they find out he's a real

dinosaur, there's no telling

what they'll do to him.

Or the others

in the forest!

It's being

taken care of.

- Please, we'll help

take care of him.

- He's Gran's responsibility.

And everyone

is my responsibility.

- But, Dad, it's not fair.

- That's my final word.

Let's get washed up, okay.

It's almost time for dinner.

A living dinosaur

is impossible.

Well, I still believe

in the impossible.

I remember

when you did too.

Why am I the bad guy?

I'm just trying to make sure

everybody is safe!

- Good morning!

- Morning, guys!

Hey, we both have to go

to work today, okay?

So it's gonna be

up to you guys

to make sure that

Gran has everything

she needs, okay?

Yeah, we'll take care

of Junior too.

You'll see he'll be

no problem.

Wendy, darling, Junior

needs to be with his own kind.

- Whatever that is.

- Yeah.

- That's what I'm trying to do.

- Okay.

Well, I'm sure Mr. Patterson

will find a place

that you can visit Junior.

- Problem solved.

- Yeah.

Dad, he has a family.

Wendy, now's not the time.

We gotta get to work, okay?

Gotta go, guys. Call us

if something comes up, okay?

We'll be back later. You stay

out of trouble, all right?

- We will.

- All right, thank you.

Well, good morning,

my little adventurers.

- Good morning, Gran.

- Morning, Mrs. Green.

Hey, what did I tell you?

Call me Gran.

Dad says Junior

can't stay with us.

Oh, your dad.

You know he's trying to do

what's best for everyone.

But he has forgotten

what it's like to be a kid.

That young man

is still in there.

You'll see.

I hope you're right.

Oh!

- Aw!

- Corn flakes!

I forgot to tell you.

I've been teaching Junior

a few words while he's

been staying at my house.

He's making

great progress.

He'll be speaking

in complete sentences

in no time.

Won't you,

my little dino genius?

Genius.

Mason, Olivia!

How's your mother?

Ugh, she gave us quite

the scare, um, but

she's gonna be all right.

Good to hear.

My heart goes out

to you and your family.

I really appreciate that,

Samuel, thank you.

Well, thank goodness

you're here today.

I don't know

if you noticed,

but several people

are out of the office sick.

I've had reports

from all over the city

that people have come

down with some kind

of a sleeping sickness.

Do we have any idea

what could be causing it?

Well, a tsetse fly

is the first thing

that comes to my mind.

Well, I learned about them

when I traveled to Africa

with my mother

when I was younger.

Their bite causes

flu-like symptoms

and sleeping issues.

But I don't know,

that doesn't really

makes sense.

They're not

common here.

I know it sounds crazy,

but that's exactly

what our experts

think it might be.

For now, let's just hope

it's an isolated thing.

If there's anything

that we can do,

you just let us know.

Well, let's not get

the public stirred up until

more research can be done.

Tests are being

conducted to confirm

if it's the tsetse fly.

So, for now,

all we can do is wait.

The first batch

is almost complete.

It will be more than enough

to cover this whole area.

- Hey!

- Hi!

We only have time

to grab a quick lunch,

then we gotta head back

to the office.

- Have you eaten?

- Yeah.

Good.

Curtis and I have been

taking good care

of Gran and Junior.

Good. I'm really glad

to hear that you guys

are getting along.

He's not so bad.

See?

What did the mayor

say about Junior?

Uh, well, actually,

we didn't get a chance

to talk to him about that.

We're dealing with some other

pressing issues right now.

Like what?

Nothing to worry

yourself about.

You just enjoy

your time with Junior

while you can, okay?

Okay.

Careful with those.

See?

I told you Wendy and Curtis

would hit it off.

Hey, Junior,

say "Curtis."

Cur...

Cur-tis.

Cur...

- Cur...

...-tis.

It's not working.

Wendy!

- Curtis.

- Oh! Thank you.

Sure you don't

want one, Gran?

No, I'm good.

But if you two are good

with watching Junior,

I think I need a nap.

We'll watch him, Gran.

Good. You wanna

gimme a hand?

- Here, Gran.

- All right. Here we go.

Careful on the step.

Hey! Hey, Junior!

Now roll it back to me.

Hmm. Go deep, Junior!

Oh, no!

Junior?

Junior! Ju--

Curtis, are you all right?

The tree. It talks.

Really?

They communicate

through the roots.

They said that there's

something wrong

with the river.

Something we, the humans,

can't tell by drinking it,

but the trees

can sense it.

There's something toxic

in the water.

Okay, so the tree

that's been in my yard

my entire life,

suddenly told you

the water was unsafe?

Now you act like

a talking tree is crazy.

You've witnessed a door

to the land before time,

seen real-life

dinosaurs,

and have flown a homemade

rocket of death.

Water bad.

Wait, wait, so, so--

so Junior's stuck

here for a month,

Dad wants him gone,

Gran's hurt, and-and

now the water is toxic?

What else

could go wrong?

We save town. Together.

All right.

Who's up for another ride

on the rocket of death?

There! That building!

I saw that building

in my head.

- Come on, Junior.

- Yeah.

Hey, man, uh,

that looks pretty heavy.

- Ah! It's not that bad.

- You doin' good, though.

- Appreciate it.

- Why you got it on the side?

Uh, well, you know,

the way it was lifted

and science.

- Makes sense.

Let me just... All right.

- Right there.

- Sweet!

- Good job, man.

- All right.

- That's lunch, everybody!

- Peace out.

Disperse.

Uh, except you,

li'l mama. Come here.

Here. I want a bacon, egg

with cheese with a large fry.

- No.

- What--

What's wrong with her?

Attitude.

Hey.

Who's this?

- Who's that?

- It's boss.

Hello? Ah. Hey, boss!

Yeah, it's Barney.

Oh, yeah, we just finished

processing all of it, yeah.

All the barrels are ready

to be shipped off.

- Tell him I said hi.

- Uh--

Yeah, l just let everyone

leave for lunch. Yeah.

Uh... I-I'm not really sure

what happened, um,

some of it just, you know,

kinda leaked in the river

and, uh, it just

kinda got there.

I mean we, we, we,

we cleaned up

what we could. Yeah.

Oh, no, no, there'll be

more than enough,

I promise, yeah.

Tell him, tell him,

tell him Clyde took

care of everything.

- Tell him Clyde did everything!

- Clyde, Clyde, call--

- Tell him. You almost

messed it up!

- Clyde--

No, no, yeah, boss,

I'm still here. Yeah.

I-- Yeah, I promise.

No more mess ups.

Okay, Warren Chapel?

Yeah, we'll be there.

We'll be there soon.

No worries.

- All right. All right,

bye, boss. Bye.

- Tell him--

Yo, I hate it when you talk

to me when I'm on the phone.

- It's very rude!

- I'm so sorry--

Hey! Come here.

Come here.

What are you doing?

- I was just looking

for my dog.

- What'd you hear?

- Nothing?

- What'd you see?

- Uh...

- Uh, uh...

Enough! Gimme those glasses!

Get 'em again!

Go one more time! Boom!

Barney! Barney, Barney!

It's okay! Barney!

- Hey! It's okay--

- Hey! Hey!

H-hey!

My dad is the deputy mayor

and y'all can get

in big trouble for that.

You're going to jail.

- My dad's deputy mayor...

- You gonna go to jail.

- Ooh!

- We ain't scared

of none of that!

- None!

What is it?

Hey, uh,

what kinda dog you say

you lookin' for again?

Whoa, what is that?

- Get it!

- Come here, come here.

Stay back. Stay back.

Control your mutt.

Control it!

If I pour this down

his ear, it'll turn

his brain to soup.

- What?

- Yeah, you heard me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa.

Is that how that stuff

actually works?

I don't know,

man. Why?

Well, because I chugged

three of 'em!

- Three?

- Yeah, I was thirsty!

Thirsty?

You see that?

You'll be so brain-damaged,

you gonna be just like Barney.

- No!

- Mm-hmm.

Control him!

No! Junior, No!

No, no, no!

- Get 'em, Barney!

- Back! Back up! Watch this!

Git! I got him!

- Come on, let's go! Let's go!

- Git! Git!

I'm gonna swing kick him,

I'm coming!

- Let's go! Get in here!

- I'm going!

- Hurry up!

- I'm sorry!

- Go!

- I'm going!

- Go!

- I'm going!

- Are you here?

- I'm here!

I'm driving!

I'm dead. I'm dead.

Dad's gonna kill me.

Come on, Junior.

We're gonna get him.

Come on.

What did they say

it was called?

Chapel Hill?

Warren Chapel.

- Thank you, Junior.

- No problem. Save Curtis.

It's an airport.

Let's go.

- Stay here, Junior.

- Okay.

Yeah,

sit tight, kid. Don't move.

Yeah, that should do it,

Barney.

Yeah. Don't worry, kid.

It'll all be

over soon.

Ah! Ow!

- You okay?

- Why didn't you tie

his feet up?

I ran out of rope.

I have no more rope.

- Hey, boss.

- Show it to me.

- Oh!

- We did good, huh, boss?

- Oh, yeah. It's amazing.

Such a small amount

can affect such a large area.

Think of the money

we're gonna make

off the black market

when our plan proves

its effectiveness.

- We gonna be rich, boss!

- What's up with the kid?

Uh, found him

snooping around the lab, boss,

along with some girl

and their ugly dog.

- Girl? What girl?

- Yeah.

- Where is she now?

- Oh, she's back at the lab.

Oh, but don't worry. Nothin'.

- Clean slate.

- Nothin'.

- Hi, Wendy!

- I told you to wait for me.

What are you doing? Whoa!

Pickles! Settle down.

Why Pickles, boss?

Well, you know how

whenever you bend a pickle,

it makes a snap?

Yeah?

Well, so does my Pickles.

She's green, and she snaps!

Good one, boss.

You had me.

You got me.

Pickles, settle down!

When's the last time

you fed her?

It's been

about a week.

Oh.

Might be time

for fresh meat!

Snack time!

Boss, what you doin'?

Letting Pickles out

for her walk.

It's snack time!

- Wait, right now?

- Yeah!

- That's you! That's you!

- Whoa, whoa, no, you!

Hey, you--

Oh, no.

- No.

- No, no, no.

Come on, let's go.

Close it. Come on!

Come on!

Where's Junior?

He's in the jeep.

Well, we can't

just leave him here.

I know!

When I open this gate,

go out the back.

- Oh, whoa, whoa!

- Oh, no, no, no, no!

Why can't we go out

the back first?

Because Pickles

needs bait!

Open the gate!

Hold it, hold it.

Thanks, boss.

What now?

Get back to the lab

and make sure it's secure!

Okay! Uh...

- Go!

- Oh, yeah!

Ah--

What about

the kids?

What if they call

the police?

I'm the mayor

of this town.

I control the police.

- Big boss.

- That's why he's in charge.

See you, boss!

Quick, come on,

come on.

You know what's

crazy, Barney?

What?

Boss just tried

to use us as bait.

All right, look,

Clyde, I didn't

wanna tell you this,

but he was trying

to use you as bait.

Uh, he used both of us.

We were side by side.

Yes, he put us both

in there, so you wouldn't

feel left out and alone.

- He like me better.

- Hmm.

Okay, hmm.

We know who's in charge.

Yeah. I'm in charge.

I'm the one driving.

- What was that?

- I don't know.

- Sounds like some

leaves or something.

- Hmm. Oh.

You right. Yeah,

we do got the roof off.

- Drop top!

Why you silly?

- What is that?

- It came from the back.

- Check and see what that was.

- Nah, man, you look.

Clyde, I can't look,

I'm driving.

- Oh, you right.

- Yeah.

- Uh... Barney?

- What?

- That-that rat from the lab?

- Hmm?

He's back, Barney.

He's back there sitting

in the back seat.

Okay.

All right.

Well, give him some

of your karate moves,

brother.

- Show 'em what you got!

- My karate moves? I got 'him!

- Give it to him!

- I got him!

Yeah, give it

to him! Yeah!

- Did you get him?

- I got him! I got him!

We got him.

We got him! Woo! We got him!

You did good, bro.

You did your thing.

Woo-hoo! Yeah!

Oh-- What the...

Barney, he's back!

He is back, man!

Okay, well, do something

and take care of it,

my brother!

- You got it!

- I got somethin' for him.

Yeah, get him, get him!

Yeah! Yeah, get him!

- Ow! Ow! Ow! Ah!

- Yeah!

- What? He bit--

What'd you mean--

- He bit me! He bit me, look.

Ooh, that looks

like it hurts.

You know what,

I got something for him.

- Okay, what?

- I got something for him.

Mm-hmm.

It's time for Pickles'

sleepy-time shot, baby!

That's perfect!

There's Junior!

Uh, Barney,

we got a problem.

- What?

- Those kids is back.

Huh?

And they're flying

a go-kart.

Clyde, go-karts don't fly.

What are you talking about?

Look for yourself,

Barney.

Whoa!

Okay, okay. We can't let them

follow us back to the lab.

- I got it. I got it.

- Okay?

Okay! Show 'em

what you got.

- Oh!

- No, no, no!

- You get them?

- I hit them! I hit them! Yeah!

Sorry, Junior.

Let me get the rat!

- Get the rat!

- I shot him again!

- You got 'em?

- He gone!

Oh, I did it! I did it!

Oh, yeah, I did it!

Woo-hoo!

Huh?

- We, we did it.

- Yeah, that's what

I said, brother.

We did it, good job!

Yeah! Woo!

Boss is gonna be

so proud of us.

Yeah, boss is gonna

be proud of me.

- Oh, boss is gonna be

proud of me.

- Us.

I said us, did you not

hear what I said?

I said boss is gonna

be proud of us.

Calm down.

All right, I need you

to keep one eye open

at all times.

- For what?

- Why you always

got an attitude?

Just look for anything

out of the ordinary.

You okay?

No, li'l mama. You wouldn't

believe it if I told you.

And the last time

we saw Junior, he was

in the back of their jeep.

We didn't know

there'd be bad guys there.

The tree only said

there's something wrong

with the water.

Well, that is certainly

gonna be a new chapter

in our book.

Absolutely amazing.

We found this

at the airport hangar.

They had barrels

of this stuff.

Well, tomorrow

after your parents

go to work,

I'm gonna analyze this.

And then we will find Junior,

and we'll get him home.

All of my lab equipment

is back at the house.

- Oh, we can take you.

- Yeah?

When did you learn

how to drive?

Gran...

There's one, um...

little, tiny thing

we forgot

to mention, um...

we were flying.

And how did you

manage that?

It was hidden

in the backyard.

Oh, my granddaughter.

The risk-taker.

Just like her Gran.

It was a little cramped,

but we made it.

At least we didn't

almost hit a plane.

That would've been bad.

Curtis!

What?

Wendy, test tube?

Let's find out

what they're up to.

Is there anything

we can do?

This will take a minute.

Why don't you have a seat?

Can I ask you something?

You don't have to answer

if you don't want to,

it's just...

How I became an orphan?

- Am I that obvious?

- It's okay, I'm used to it.

My parents died

when I was a baby.

They were on their

way home, it was late,

and it was snowing.

The roads got icy

and a truck slid

into their lane.

They couldn't stop.

That's horrible,

I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

I was told

that my parents

were good people.

That they were kind

to everyone they met.

Also, that they

loved me very much.

That's why I try to be

the best person that I can.

Any brothers or sisters?

No, just me.

I learned to look out

for myself.

But to be perfectly honest,

it still gets lonely.

I can understand that.

My mom actually had a lot

of medical problems

when I was born.

She said I was

her miracle baby.

Her and my dad talked

to a ton of doctors,

but they couldn't have

children after me.

Adoption was

the only option.

But as they got into work

and I got older,

I hung out a lot

with Gran.

Science and adventure

is great, but...

I never really got along

with other kids.

We get along fine.

I've got it!

- What is it?

- This.

It's from

the African tsetse fly.

Or a synthetic version.

If this gets into

the water supply,

people will be sleepy

for days.

- Oh! Oh... Oh!

- Oh!

- Oh, Gran, oh.

Curtis, take this.

- Oh, wow, l gotta go lie down.

Let's go to your room.

Careful.

Gran's asleep.

You need to tell

your parents about all this.

Let's find Junior first.

Then we can get grounded.

Yeah.

Like literally. Grounded.

Come on, that was good!

What's up, man?

- Just waiting for the go-ahead.

- Good!

'Cause this job has been

all sorts of trouble.

What kind

of trouble, cops?

Nah, no police.

Just these weird kids

snoopin' where they're

not supposed to be,

but me and Barney,

we got 'em good.

- Kids, really?

- Yes.

All right, and they had this

little weird-looking monster,

pet-looking thing,

and it attacked us, man!

But, Barney, what did I do?

- You know what I did.

- I know what you did.

I pulled out Pickles'

sleepy-time pistol,

I lined it up, boom!

- Clyde!

- Huh?

Look, you don't gotta yell!

That's how loud

it was though, man.

Yeah, but you don't

gotta scream.

My fault. You right.

My bad. My bad.

So, you shot a little dog

with a tranquilizer gun?

Yeah, man,

all right, look.

I shot him in the back

of the jeep, he fell off,

rolled around.

He's probably

roadkill by now.

Boom.

Hey! Let's ride, people!

Let's go take care

of this business, man.

What's wrong with you?

Come on.

We... we failed him.

We failed him. We promised

we would keep him safe!

We promised we would...

Wendy, I...

I think we need

to call the police.

I know, I know.

This is bigger than that.

Mr. Patterson?

Mr. Patterson,

this is Wendy Jenkins,

my dad works

for you, um...

Yes, Wendy. I know

who you are, slow down.

Tell me what's going on.

Me and Curtis,

we found something big.

Some very bad people

are doing something.

They have this chemical

that can put people to sleep.

Who's Curtis?

The boy who's staying

with us for a month.

Where are you now?

Some type of lab

or headquarters?

I can send you

the location.

I got it. Don't go anywhere.

Your dad and I will be

on our way with the police.

Yes, sir, thank you.

Thank you.

No, thank you, Wendy.

Okay.

Help is on the way.

He told us just

to sit tight and wait.

You're being watched.

Don't do anything

until I get there.

I'm leaving my office now.

I'll call you again

when I'm en route.

Where's my dad

and the police?

Those aren't the police.

No. Much worse.

Y'all kids is in trouble!

Are you sick?

No, man, it's just

my scary voice.

My real voice is too high.

They won't be intimidated.

Well, you sound sick.

I've got some cough drops.

- I'm not sick, man!

- Oh, I know what it is.

- It's your stance.

- Okay.

- You just gotta

stand like this.

- Like this?

- Just gotta drop your knees.

- Drop! Like this?

- Yeah, lift your shoulders.

- Okay.

Yeah. And then

use right here.

- You in trouble.

- You in trouble!

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, like that!

- In trouble!

- You in trouble!

- Like this. You in trouble!

- You in trouble!

- Yeah. You in trouble!

- You in trouble!

- Enough!

- You did all right, though.

- Tie 'em up.

Knock 'em out

and throw them in the river.

Okay. Okay.

Drown time.

Come here!

No! Get off!

It's time. Let's go!

You won't get away

with this!

I already have.

- Scat, kid!

- Go!

Yeah. Huh. We gonna

drown y'all in the lake.

Ah, oh, Barney.

They just kids, man.

And I'm an orphan.

- What?

- He's an orphan.

- He's an orphan?

- You an orphan?

We can't drown the orphan,

it's almost Christmas!

What type of gift

is that, man?

- It's a horrible one.

- Okay, let me think.

Let me think.

Let me think. Let me think.

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

What if, what if,

what if we drop 'em off

in the middle of nowhere

a few miles up the road?

And just leave them there?

It's cold,

we can't do that.

You right. It's December.

You right. It is December.

Uh-- I got it.

Give them some

of that sleeping gas,

just let 'em sit here.

Oh, okay! Yeah, yeah,

yeah, yeah.

- Yeah.

- That way

we don't harm 'em.

- No harm, no foul.

- Cool! Cool!

- Yeah, sweet!

- This is why boss

put you in charge.

- I know.

Ahem. Excuse me, excuse me.

What are you doing?

- I'm just calling the police.

- Give me that phone.

- Hey! Hey, that's mine!

- Give me that! I'm so sorry.

You strong, girl!

Come on, take this.

Hey, this would actually

be a good gift for boss.

- Merry Christmas.

Hey, Merry Christmas.

- Hey, show some spirit, man.

- Merry Christmas.

- I'll see you later.

- All right, Barney,

I'll see you, man.

Woo!

All right, kids. I'mma

be honest with y'all, okay?

You guys is lucky.

You lucky Barney

has a light heart.

'Cause I wanna see y'all

at the bottom of the lake!

But I was thinkin',

I see myself in you kids.

I don't want y'all goin' down

the same path I went down.

'Cause look at me now! I got

two children tied to a barrel!

I steal gum,

I used to push over old ladies,

and I went to jail!

I didn't pay

my traffic tickets,

but that's a different story.

Hey, man,

I thought I shot you, man!

Come here! Come here,

I got-- Come here!

Oh, he is fast.

Come here!

Oh, I'mma get him!

I'mma get him!

I'm sorry, boss!

Funny man, sleepy.

Junior, we thought

we lost you.

Good to see you,

little buddy.

We gotta get you home.

But first, we have

to stop the mayor.

I go home after next full moon.

Junior stay and help!

I'll make it up

to you, I promise.

Come on.

Oh, grab a mask.

Holiday parade

tonight at 8:00.

You snooze, you lose!

Pay no attention

to the elves wearing masks.

This is perfectly normal.

This is the regular

old Santa Claus...

- Wait here, Junior.

- I will this time. l promise.

We have gifts in the bag

and we're ready to go!

Merry Christmas!

Holiday parade!

Bring your wife

and your kids!

Bring your family,

bring your friends!

Come out and celebrate

the holiday parade

tonight at 8:00!

Just smile and wave, everyone,

just smile and wave.

Do not worry about

the elves wearing masks!

Woo! It's just really

cold outside. It's okay!

Holiday parade

tonight at 8:00!

You snooze, you lose!

Happy holidays, everybody!

We brought some gifts for you.

Hey.

Hey, boss!

We'll be in and out

before anybody wakes up.

Good. No one will

ever know I was here.

Where's Clyde?

I don't know.

He doesn't get his cut

if he doesn't get here soon.

Gotcha.

Now, for what

we really came for.

- Barney!

- I-I'm sorry, boss.

I-I thought I saw something.

I don't see anything.

Our money is waiting,

come on!

Yes, sir.

Sorry! Sorry!

Merry Christmas,

my sleepy little citizens!

Aren't they cute?

Have you set

the explosives yet?

Yep, coming right up.

Boss, that's going

to be really loud.

Who cares?

It's not like it's gonna

wake anyone up.

Time to open some presents.

My phone.

Okay.

Victory,

my friend. We did it.

- We did it.

- The caper of a lifetime.

I think we deserve

to celebrate.

- Look at all that money!

- Woo! Ahh!

- Yes!

- We're rich!

- Say cheese!

- Cheese!

Barney, I think

I'm going to keep

all the money,

and let you take

the blame for all of this.

No, no, no.

Y-you're joking, right?

- It's okay, Barney.

- No! You're joking, right?

- No.

- No, boss, please. No, you--

- I'll see you in prison!

- No! No, boss!

All right, boss!

Good one!

I'll be waiting

around the corner, um...

Go! Come on!

Disperse, disperse!

This way, this way, this way!

- What is he doing?

- I don't know.

He's your dinosaur.

I'm sorry, Pickles.

Daddy can't take you.

Not enough room.

What is that little thing?

I'm a dinosaur.

And you're a bad man.

It's over!

You three have been

nothing but a thorn

in my side.

It's time I remedy

that problem.

Dinosaurs are extinct!

Now to make sure

they stay that way!

Why me?

I wasn't gonna

hurt anyone,

I promise.

We were just playing.

I don't think I wanna know

what happens next.

Oh, thank goodness

you two are safe!

How are you feeling?

I'm feeling great,

but the police are coming.

You've got to get Albert

and his family back

to the forest straightaway.

You heard her, go!

What exactly

happened here?

The mayor planned it all.

The police

will find all the evidence

they need here,

but the location of the lab

is on my phone.

They'll find Clyde

sleeping like a baby.

Come on, Curtis!

Stay out of trouble, you.

I'll try. No promises.

I guess you probably have

to get back soon too, right?

Oh, yeah,

I almost forgot.

Well, we should

probably go.

Can we stay for just

a little while longer?

Yeah.

- Wendy?

- Yeah?

- Thank you.

- For what?

For a month

I'll never forget.

I could always count on you.

I never felt alone.

No matter what happens,

no matter where you go,

we'll always be

here for you.

Like family?

Like family.

No one needs to know.

Tighten

those handcuffs.

Really tight.

Yeah, well, you need to be

in a straightjacket, lady.

Oh!

- I'm telling you guys...

- Did they get home okay?

Yes! And then we made

sure Junior didn't

sneak away this time.

Oh, good! You both

did splendidly.

I told the police

everything.

About the bank, and the lab,

and not quite everything.

- Wendy! Curtis!

- Guys!

Oh, my God.

Oh, my gosh, we were

so worried about you two.

We thought you were downtown,

but Gran called us

and told us everything.

- Are you okay?

- Couldn't be better.

Shame about Samuel.

Take your hands off of me!

I'm still the mayor

of this town!

Dinosaurs!

There were dinosaurs!

Argh, those kids!

They'll tell you! Tell him!

Knock it off.

I'm telling you

the truth!

And one of them even talked.

Did he now?

Dinosaurs? Impossible.

But I'm not crazy!

Well, it looks like

I owe you two kids an apology.

It's okay, Dad.

And you, Tadrina, I'm sorry

I didn't believe you.

I knew you'd come around.

And you, Olivia.

I've just been so caught up

with work I forgot how...

How the impossible

is still possible?

- Right as usual, my love.

- Hmm.

I'd love to meet

the rest of Junior's family.

I think I can make

that happen.

I think our town

needs a new mayor.

- Yeah!

- Yeah.

Curtis?

I really hope that you

enjoyed your time with us.

Yes, I will never

forget you all.

Thank you so much.

What's wrong you two?

It's Christmas eve.

Sorry, I don't really

feel like celebrating.

Come on, you don't

feel like celebrating?

You two just both

helped stop the mayor

from executing his evil plan.

- And more importantly,

no one was hurt.

- That's right.

You know, Curtis,

we've really enjoyed you

being part of our family

this past month.

Wendy?

It's just, Curtis only has

a few days left with us.

I don't want him to go back

to the orphanage.

It's okay, I...

I'm used to the place.

Who wants to open a present?

Curtis? You go first.

I-- I didn't get you

anything.

You being here

is all we need.

Glasses!

Thank you so much!

There's more.

- Huh?

- Hmm.

We saw how well

you two got along.

- Well, after the first

couple of days.

- Yeah.

Now, you two really

take care of each other

like a family should.

And, to be honest,

we've all become

pretty attached to you.

Yeah. That's right, Curtis.

That's why we've decided

to adopt you.

You don't have to go

anywhere, son. You're home.

- If you'll have us.

- Yes! Yes!

- Gah!

- Aw!

Come here, guys.

- Merry Christmas, Curtis.

- Merry Christmas, Wendy.

Merry Christmas, Junior.
