Captain Planet and the Planeteers (1990–1996): Season 4, Episode 6 - Wheeler's Ark - full transcript
Captain Planet:
Our world is in peril.
Gaia, the spirit of Earth,
can no longer stand
the terrible destruction
plaguing our planet.
She sends five magic rings
to five special young people:
Kwame from Africa
with the power of Earth;
from North America, Wheeler,
with the power of fire;
from Eastern Europe,
Linka with the power of wind;
from Asia, Gi,
with the power of water
and from South America,
Ma-Ti with the power of heart.
When the five powers combine,
they summon Earth's
greatest champion:
Captain Planet.
The power is yours!

[ Whimpering ]
So you like my new heat-seeking
laser rifles, eh, boys?
With these babies,
you almost can't miss.
Let us see what these
samples can tell us.
Kwame: What have you found?
[ Speaks Russian ] There are
traces of acid rain
all the way up here.
Bummer. Now can we split
this Popsicle stand?
I'm freezin'.
Hey, watch it!
Eco-alert.
Get moving, Planeteers,
while I explain.
Wheeler: Wherever we're goin',
I hope it's warm.
Those wolves sure
make great target practice.
Blast!
It's those planet punks.
Oh, those stupid animal lovers
are ruinin' our fun!
Oh, yeah?
Watch this.
Gi: We're hit!
Blight: Well, thanks
for dropping by, kids.
[ Laughs, sighs ]
[ Screaming ]
I don't know how long
this ledge will hold.
Then let's blow.
Precisely.
Wind!
Whoa!
Gotta watch what
I say around her.
Nice work, Linka.
Da. Only, without
the Eco-Copter,
we cannot stop Dr. Blight.
Oh, yes, we can.
Let our powers combine!
Earth!
-Fire!
-Wind!
-Water!
Heart!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
Stay cool, Planeteers!
I'll be right back.
[ Animal whimpering ]
What was that?
It came from over there.
It's a wolf pup.
I'm afraid he lost his mother
to those horrible hunters.
Linka: He is too young
to survive on his own.
We must take him with us.
What? Are you nuts?
That's a wild animal.
He could chew your hand off!
More like lick it off.
Well, anyway, Gaia is
gonna pitch a fit
when we show up with
another homeless animal.
Do not worry, Wheeler.
We will protect you.
Target practice is over,
hot shots.
What the...
It's that superzero,
Captain Planet.
Hit it!
So much for
the friendly skies.
This is your Captain speakin'.
There seems to be
a little ice forming
on the wings, uh, or blades.
Fasten your seatbelts.
We're experiencing
mild turbulence.
All: Whoa!
Please remain seated
until the aircraft
comes to a complete stop.
Hope you enjoyed
the flight.
Be sure and check
your weapons at the door.
Hey, those are mine!
Oh, don't worry, Doc.
You can have 'em back.
After all, you need them
to shoot you back to town.
[ Wolf howling ]
Well, I've gotta ski-daddle.
But thank you for
flying Air Planet.
You know,
the Eco-Copter
has never flown so smoothly
or economically.
Thanks for the lift,
Captain Planet.
Hey, Planeteers, always happy
to help a carpool
in distress.
The power is yours!
I love animals as much
as the next planetary archetype.
But this is the third homeless
animal you've brought
back this week.
And, frankly, it's weighing
kind of heavy on me.
Ha. I told you so, Linka.
On the other hand, Wheeler,
if people gave
a little more thought
to the creatures
they share the planet with,
we wouldn't be
in this predicament.
Mm-hmm. See, Wheeler?
I was right.
It's not an issue
of who's right.
What's important is
these animals are healthy now.
And it's time to take them home.
Da, Gaia, you are right.
We will take them back.
[ Animals squawking ]
Forget tryin' to bag
a few Zs around here.
Throw another cracker
on the barbie.
Hello, mate!
How'd you like me
to throw you on the barbie?
Wheeler!
Hey, it was a joke.
I just don't see
why everybody's
makin' such a big deal
over a few smelly animals.
[ Growling ]
Welcome home, Mr. Parrot.
This is terrible.
They are destroying the forest.
What do you mean?
Look out!
Get out of the way!
Earth!
Quick thinkin', Kwame.
We cannot possibly leave
this bird in such danger.
Gi: Linka's right.
Let's get out of here.
Man: Please, young ones.
Wait. I need your help.
Wheeler: Hey, look!
A baby kangaroo.
No, it is a wallaby.
Wannabe what?
No, Wheeler, a wallaby.
What happened to him?
He was inured trying
to escape the destruction here.
To the Aborigine, the wallaby
is very special.
But there are only some 30
of this kind left in the wild.
And now he has lost his home.
Please, help me.
We will do our best.
Hey, hold on.
The object is to unload animals,
not collect more.
We are taking him.
Come on, Planeteers.
Let's go!
Wait. Where is Kwame?
Right here.
I found a graceful sunray.
You're bringing a --
a weed?
It is an endangered
species, too.
And they were going
to plow it under.
What's next?
Endangered rocks?
Wheeler:
Hey, what's with Suchi?
[ Suchi squawking ]
I do not think
he likes snakes.
Hey! Get this monkey
off my back.
Come, Suchi.
You do not want to monkey around
with this grump-ateer.
[ Sneezes ]
What's going on?
[ Sneezing ]
Oh, Wheeler.
It looks like you
are allergic to wallabies.
[ Sneezes ]
Oh, that's just great.
**
I can't believe
we're finally gonna ditch
one of these critters.
[ Grunting ]
Oh, no!
More smugglers!
Yo! Take it easy, man.
We're not smugglers.
We're returning this snake
to the wild, not stealing it.
Oh, I am sorry.
I have just saved my baby
pygmy hog from smugglers.
They're stealing
endangered animals.
I have heard they sell
them to collectors
for great sums of money.
Bohze moi!
Everywhere we go!
Can you lead us
to these smugglers?
I guess so.
Follow me.
There.
Man: Hey, we oughta
clean up on this haul.
In a pig's eye!
You swine will have to do better
than this if you wanna be paid.
Hoggish Greedly.
Look at this puny thing.
And the ivory on this tub's
barely worth the trouble.
We must wait
until they fall asleep.
Heart!
What are you doing?
Letting the animals know
we are friends.
Shh! Quiet!
[ Sneezes ]
Hey, we may be friends.
But we're not adopting
any more ani--
[ Laughs ]
Well, well, what did
we bag this time?
Planet pukes.
Your hides should
bring big bucks
on the eco-villain market.
What if we muddy up
his plan a bit, Gi?
Water!
Earth!
[ All shouting ]
Hey!
I'll cook.
Then we book.
Fire!
Geronimo!
Get them,
you piggin' brains.
Fire!
Ma-Ti: Hurry! We cannot leave
these baby animals on their own.
Surprise.
[ Snorting ]
I hate those planet twerps.
[ Giggles ]
Oh, she is so cute.
Too bad Greedly gives pigs
such a bad name.
We are grateful to you, Ashuk.
Then, please,
take Chandra with you.
It is not safe for her here.
Why not?
The more the merrier.
[ Animals calling ]
[ Sneezes ]
This is totally bogus.
Will somebody get this
stupid wolf a chew stick?
Yo, did anybody here --
Yuck!
Gross!
Gi, take over, would ya?
[ Laughs ]
Being kissed by a real tiger
to much for you, Wheeler?
Very funny.
[ Splat ]
But this isn't funny!
Ah, elephant dung will
make excellent fertilizer
for our plant.
I will clean
that up for you.
[ Growling ]
Aw, man. Give me a break.
It looks like you have
a friend for life.
He follows you everywhere.
Kinda like you, Linka.
Hey, how about plantin' one?
Ouch! Why, you...!
[ Pup growling ]
Hey, wheres my shoe?
Hey, you little runt!
Now give me back my shoe!
Well, you're almost home,
little babushka.
[ Animal yelping ]
Seals!
Heart!
Something is very wrong.
Linka: These poor animals!
Gi: Over here!
These beluga whales have
beached themselves.
They're very sick.
Ma-Ti:
The water looks contaminated.
The river is filled
with toxic waste.
Wheeler: Yeah. And I bet
those factories
have somethin' to do with it.
Be a good boy.
We will be back soon.
So keep our teeth to yourself.
[ Whimpering ]
[ Suchi squawking ]
Linka:
Who could do this?
Ma-Ti: Plunder.
It figures he would
own this filth factory.
We've gotta nail plunder
for this illegal dumping.
Gi: This way.
Bleak: Dumpin' all this junk
in the river's illegal,
ain't it, boss?
Depends on what you
mean by illegal.
The way I see it,
if I don't get caught,
it's not illegal.
Don't people drink
outta this river?
Millions.
But I don't look at it
as making people sick, Bleak.
I see it as...
[ Laughs ]
subsidizing hospitals.
And once the river is shot,
everyone will be forced to buy
my designer bottled water.
It's Pure Plunder, boss!
Hey, time to increase
the foul flow.
Gi: Hurry. Let's see
what we can find.
There's gotta be somethin'
here to bust Plunder with.
Plunder:
Uh, just a moment, Bleak.
I forgot
my production schedules.
Well, if it isn't
the eco-brats.
Bleak, this is
what I pay you for.
Right, Mr. Plunder.
[ Gas hissing ]
[ All coughing ]
[ Snoring ]
Bleak, I think
Sleeping Beauty here
needs a wake-up call.
You mean wake-up fall!
What the...
Uh, yes, sir,
Mr. Plunder.
Please show our guests
their luxurious accommodations.
What is this place?
You wanted evidence?
When this drum fills up
with chemical waste,
you'll have all you need.
[ Laughing ]
Break time.
[ Pup yipping ]
Gi: It's the wolf pup.
I told you
he likes you, Wheeler.
Probably your animal magnetism.
Well, I never thought
I'd be glad to see you.
But since you're here,
do your thing on my ropes,
munch mouth.
Good boy.
This chemical bath
will clean those planet pains
clear to the bone.
[ Liquid sloshing ]
They are releasing
the toxics.
Faster, pup!
Come on, Wolfie!
Fire!
Hey!
What's goin' on?
Linka: Wind!
Hey! Stop!
[ Coughing ]
Whoa!
It is time for teamwork.
Let our powers combine.
Earth!
-Fire!
-Wind!
-Water!
Heart!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
You better hightail it,
Planeteers,
while I take out the trash.
Just call me
an old blowhard.
Hurry. We've got to
dump the whole load.
Time's up, Plunder.
Your poisonous plan
is a washout.
Guess again,
Planet.
Say "good-bye"
to the river.
Not yet.
Ugh! Whoops.
Missed the door again.
This is not my idea
of a good time.
Now, I need a backup plan
for the backup.
Well, if it isn't
Mr. Mean and Mr. Clean.
Eco-villains in a drum.
I'd love to stay and chat.
But, uh, I've got a whale
of a problem to solve.
Plunder: Hey! Hey, don't
rock this thing.
Wheeler: It's hard to believe
anyone could hurt
these adorable guys.
Da, Wheeler.
But are you not taking things
a little too far?
[ Sneezes ]
Hey, I just wanna make sure
they're comfortable.
I mean, animals have rights,
too, you know.
Welcome to Wheeler's Ark.
[ Sneezes ]
Here, Wheeler.
Try this mixture I made
with Kwame's graceful
sunray plant.
It may help your sneezing.
[ Sneezes ]
I don't know.
Yuck!
Hey, that's incredible.
Time to check on
the rest of the flock.
Nice goin', Wheeler!
All's whale
that ends whale.
Better get ready
for a tall tale, Gaia.
Planeteers, do we have
a communication problem?
It is a long story, Gaia.
But we can try
to give them back again.
No. Please, no, no, no.
I'll handle it this time.
Does that mean I have
to give up my best bud here?
I'm afraid so, Wheeler.
I understand.
Well, how about one
for the road, little guy?
[ Growling ]
Go, Planet!
As people take up more land
for their own use,
less is left for
plants and animals.
Every day, over 100 species
become extinct.
You can help
stop this loss.
Don't buy exotic animals
taken from the wild.
That way, poachers will have
no reason to capture them.
And urge your parents
and friends to support laws,
like the U.S.
Endangered Species Act,
that protect our
natural treasures.
All: The power is yours!
[ Yips ]
Go, Planet!
Technology is a good thing
when used wisely.
Still, come technologies
cause pollution.
But engineers and scientists
are developing cleaner ways
of doing things,
such as alternative
energy sources
that pollute less and reusable
and recyclable products.
If you have a choice
between a product made
from recycled material...
And one that is not,
buy recycled.
Support green technology.
The power is yours!
-Earth!
-Fire!
-Wind!
-Water!
-Heart!
-Go, Planet!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
* Captain Planet,
he's our hero *
* Gonna take pollution
down to zero *
* He's our powers magnified
* And he's fighting
on the planet's side *
* Captain Planet,
he's our hero *
* Gonna take pollution
down to zero *
* Gonna help him
put asunder *
* Bad guys who like to
loot and plunder *
You'll pay for this,
Captain Planet!
* We're the Planeteers
* You can be one too
* 'Cause saving our planet
is the thing to do *
* Looting and polluting
* Is not the way
* Hear what Captain Planet
* Has to say
The power is yours!
Our world is in peril.
Gaia, the spirit of Earth,
can no longer stand
the terrible destruction
plaguing our planet.

[ Whimpering ]
So you like my new heat-seeking
laser rifles, eh, boys?
With these babies,
you almost can't miss.
Let us see what these
samples can tell us.
Kwame: What have you found?
[ Speaks Russian ] There are
traces of acid rain
all the way up here.
Bummer. Now can we split
this Popsicle stand?
I'm freezin'.
Hey, watch it!
Eco-alert.
Get moving, Planeteers,
while I explain.
Wheeler: Wherever we're goin',
I hope it's warm.
Those wolves sure
make great target practice.
Blast!
It's those planet punks.
Oh, those stupid animal lovers
are ruinin' our fun!
Oh, yeah?
Watch this.

It is time for teamwork.

You better hightail it,
Planeteers,

dump the whole load.
Time's up, Plunder.
Your poisonous plan
is a washout.
Guess again,
Planet.
Say "good-bye"
to the river.
Not yet.
Ugh! Whoops.
Missed the door again.
This is not my idea
of a good time.
Now, I need a backup plan
for the backup.
Well, if it isn't
Mr. Mean and Mr. Clean.
Eco-villains in a drum.
I'd love to stay and chat.
But, uh, I've got a whale
of a problem to solve.
Plunder: Hey! Hey, don't
rock this thing.
Wheeler: It's hard to believe
anyone could hurt
these adorable guys.
Da, Wheeler.
But are you not taking things
a little too far?
[ Sneezes ]
Hey, I just wanna make sure
they're comfortable.
I mean, animals have rights,
too, you know.
Welcome to Wheeler's Ark.
[ Sneezes ]
Here, Wheeler.
Try this mixture I made
with Kwame's graceful
sunray plant.
It may help your sneezing.
[ Sneezes ]
I don't know.
Yuck!
Hey, that's incredible.
Time to check on
the rest of the flock.
Nice goin', Wheeler!
All's whale
that ends whale.
Better get ready
for a tall tale, Gaia.
Planeteers, do we have
a communication problem?
It is a long story, Gaia.
But we can try
to give them back again.
No. Please, no, no, no.
I'll handle it this time.
Does that mean I have
to give up my best bud here?
I'm afraid so, Wheeler.
I understand.
Well, how about one
for the road, little guy?

Go, Planet!
As people take up more land
for their own use,
less is left for
plants and animals.
Every day, over 100 species
become extinct.
You can help
stop this loss.
Don't buy exotic animals
taken from the wild.
That way, poachers will have
no reason to capture them.
And urge your parents
and friends to support laws,
like the U.S.
Endangered Species Act,
that protect our
natural treasures.
All: The power is yours!

Go, Planet!
Technology is a good thing
when used wisely.
Still, come technologies
cause pollution.
But engineers and scientists
are developing cleaner ways
of doing things,
such as alternative
energy sources
that pollute less and reusable
and recyclable products.
If you have a choice
between a product made
from recycled material...
And one that is not,
buy recycled.
Support green technology.
The power is yours!
-Earth!
-Fire!
-Wind!
