Wheeler: [ Southern accent ]
You don't know much about me
without you have read
a book by the name
of "The Adventures
of Tom Sawyer."
But that ain't no matter.
You'll learn
plenty about us both,
especially me, in this story.
Tom is my pal.
And we lived
in the little town
of St. Petersburg
on the Mississippi River.
I didn't have no Ma.
And my Pap --
-[ Growls ]
-Look out!
-Aah!
[ Both laugh ]
I wonder if Huck was
as big a klutz!
[ Laughter continues ]
[ Normal voice ]
One thing's for sure.
He wouldn't have
let Becky drive!
If you were not so caught up
in that silly story,
you could have warned me
about the log.
Silly?
"The Adventures
of Huck Finn" is a classic!
Guys, can we save
the literary debate for later?
Milton's meeting us here
at first light.
Da, he is going to show us
all the work being done
to help preserve the Missi--
Pi-- the Pissmiss --
the -- the river.
And tomorrow night,
Milton's invited us
for a real down-home
crawfish boil!
Well, if you ask me,
rafting the river
like Tom and Huck
could be a lot more fun
than seeing a bunch
of boring cleanup projects
and a pot of hick shrimp!
You know, Wheeler?
I think you are onto something!
Yeah, me, too.
I am? Like what?
We could live the river life,
just like in the book.
The girls may not like it.
Hey, it is not like there
is a disaster or anything.
So Tom, Huck,
what will it be,
work or play?
That's a no-brainer.
[ Geese honking ]
Time to rise and shine, Gi.
[ Yawns ] Morning.
Where are the guys?
They're gone.
The boat is gone.
But they left a note.
"Gone fishing,"
signed "Huck and gang."
"P.S. See you downriver
at Milton's tonight."
Those little
hockey players.
You mean "hooky."
Milton:
Mornin', Planeteers.
Hey, glad y'all
found my camp okay.
-Hello, Milton.
-Good to see you!
Say,
where are the fellas?
They are off having delusions
of Huckleberry Hound.
That's Huckleberry Finn,
Linka.
Ha!
Huck wannabes, huh?
Yeah, we still gettin' them
'round this and these parts.
I just hope they don't
get into trouble.
Oh, they'll be okay.
But they're in for
a bit of a shock.
Wheeler: [ Southern accent ]
Ah, ain't much better
in the whole, wide world
than a-pullin' downstream
with your two bestest friends.
Aah!
-Got a nibble, Huck?
-More like a chomp!
Whee-hee!
Ain't it a right fine catch?
[ Grunts ]
Kwame: [ Laughs ]
More like a dirty left boot!
So much for our
fresh-fish breakfast
unless we want
filet of sole.
Wheeler:
[ Normal voice ] Gross!
We still have plenty of
peanut-butter sandwiches.
Who needs peanut butter?
We're livin' off the river.
What an incredible place.
Eh, runoff from the refinery
has nearly destroyed this area.
But we're workin' with 'em
to restore it,
replant the grasses
and all.
Ah, the bottom's still covered
with chemical sludge.
I'm gonna test this
to make sure
that no new toxics
are driftin' in.
How'd you get started
with all this?
Oh, grew up here, huntin'
and fishin' in the bayou,
spent 20 years workin' in one
of those big refineries.
You worked in a refinery?
Yeah, till I started
seein' the bayou changin'.
And we were the cause of it,
dumpin' waste,
cuttin' new channels
and buildin' levies
to redirect
the river's flow.
Why disrupt the river's
natural path?
To make it easier for
the factory boats and barges.
But with all the changes
when the rains come,
uh, it can cause terrible flood.
Shh.
Come on.
I got somethin'
to show you.
The Mississippi Delta's
full of rookeries,
nesting grounds
for migratory birds.
We destroy this here,
people up north'll
feel it, too.
They'll lose lots of ducks
and other waterfowl.
If the bayou dies,
so do these critters
and our heritage.
[ Southern accent ] Ah,
my belly's a-rumblin', Huck.
Caught anything, yet?
[ Southern accent ]
Yee-haw!
Snagged a big one, this time!
Thing's puttin' up
a mighty good fight!
He's a-real beaut.
Yep, we'll be
eatin' fine, now.
[ Thud ]
[ Grunts, spits ]
[ Normal voice ]
Huh? What happened?
I caught the big one!
[ Laughs ]
[ Normal voice ] Yeah, the
biggest tire in the Mississippi!
[ Laughs ]
Peanut-butter sandwich,
anyone?
Not me.
I'm holding out
for fresh catfish.
how do you feel about
chemically preserved?
What the?
Oh, gross!
Where's this comin' from?
-Probably from that factory.
Yuck! I gotta get
this stuff off of me!
Man:
You boys be careful.
That water's not fit
for swimmin'.
What do you mean?
This stretch of river's
called Cancer Alley
'cause of all the sickness.
Factory owner says
it got nothin' to do
with what they're
dumpin' in the river.
Hmm.
But what else could it be?
Well, I wanna know
who's responsible
for dumping chemicals
on my catfish.
I can't wait to give
those polluters a --
Ma-Ti:
Take it easier, Wheeler.
They may not
appreciate strangers
telling them what to do.
Kwame:
Who knows what kind of people
we are dealing with.
[ Barks ]
You're right.
they could be dangerous.
[ Barking ]
Let's get outta here.
Oh, garden seed.
Boomer's busted free,
again.
[ Chuckles ] Must've smelled
peanut butter on them kids.
He goes wild
for peanut butter.
[ Boomer barks ]
-Boomer! Wait up, boy!
-[ Whistles ] Come here, boy.
Come on back here.
-Bring it on back here, boy.
[ All panting ]
They sicced the dogs on us.
[ Dogs barking ]
[ Indistinct shouting ]
[ All panting ]
[ Dogs barking ]
[ Indistinct shouting ]
[ Barking ]
[ Southern accent ] Are --
are they still followin' us?
Where are we gonna go?
Boomer, what're you doin'?
Come on. Go, go.
[ All panting ]
-This way. Hurry.
-Yeah, let's get 'em.
[ Indistinct shouting ]
I think we lost 'em.
Hey, look, just
in time for supper.
I don't know.
Seems wrong to raid
somebody else's crab trap.
That never stopped Huck Finn.
'Sides, it don't look like
anyone used it in quite a spell.
[ Gasps ]
Tarnations!
[ Normal voice ]
What is that thing?
All I can tell you, Wheeler,
is that is not my dinner.
This isn't exactly the adventure
I had in mind.
Hey! Get out of our boat!
[ Boomer barking ]
Man: Boomer!
Where are you, boy?!
[ Barking ]
-Let's buck.
-Hey, you!
Boy, those kids
are about as flighty
as hummingbirds
in a hurricane.
They must be
afraid of dogs.
Linka: This is amazing.
Yeah. But what happened
to these trees, Milton?
Saltwater intrusion
comin' in
from all the new
channels bein' dug.
Stuff's been destroyin'
50 square miles a year.
So we've started puttin' in
weirs, underwater dams,
to help keep
the salt water back.
Amy: Baby, baby!
What kind of animal
is that?
Milton:
It's just an alligator Amy.
What a funny name.
Believe me, it suits
her just fine.
She used to be a trapper,
but now she's fightin'
to save the bayou.
Hey there, Milton.
What's happenin'?
Amy, meet my friends,
here, Linka and Gi.
Pleasure.
-Hello.
-Hi.
Well, you're just in time
to watch me feed my friends.
Isabelle, Pete, chow time!
Friends?
Out here?
Well, they're kind of --
well, uh, different.
[ Both gasp ]
This is Pete.
[ Gasps ]
Let me guess -- Isabelle?
You got it.
-Can I feed her?
-Oh, I don't advise it.
Ooh,
one could lose a hand.
[ Both gasp ]
[ Laughs ]
Milton: I'm almost as hungry
as Pete and Isabelle.
Anybody for chicken?
Raw chicken? Ew.
'Course not.
Fried chicken.
My wife, Kathleen,
made it for us.
Ah. Mmm.
Yum, scrumptious.
[ Splash ]
[ Southern accent ]
I-I-I'm so darn hungry
I may eat this cat raw.
[ Chuckles ]
You gotta land him, first.
He's a feisty one.
But I hooked him good.
Ouch. That's one
hard-headed cuss.
[ Laughs ]
I think your catch would say
the same about you, eh, Wheeler?
[ Normal voice ] Even Huck Finn
knew when to give up.
Break out
the peanut butter, Kwame.
The dog ate it all.
[ Thunder crashes ]
Uh-oh.
And now, it's gonna rain
on our charade.
Maybe, it is time
to head to Milton's.
Lots of the river delta is too
polluted for fishin' these days.
I'm been checkin'
this area for years.
It's still pretty healthy.
[ Chuckles ] I'll say.
[ Chuckles ]
Bozhe moi!
I never knew
catching fishes was so easy.
[ Southern accent ]
You see anything out there?
[ Southern accent ] Yep. Rain.
Lots and lots of rain.
Water must be
overflowin' the banks.
If it don't let up soon,
we'll be drowned rats.
Look!
There's a light over yonder.
Head for it!
[ Thunder crashes ]
Hang on!
-Aah!
-Whoa!
-Whoa!
-Hang on!
[ All screaming ]
Hang on!
Whoa!
-Whoa!
-Whoa!
[ Grunts ]
[ Normal voice ]
Man, hairy rapids.
[ Flashlight rattles ]
[ Normal voice ]
But we are okay now, I think.
Is it just me,
or does anyone else
have that boxed-in feeling?
It feels like we're on
an elevator or something.
Next stop, ladies lingerie.
[ Horn blares ]
And here comes big Bertha!
[ Horn blares ]
We must have drifted
into one of the locks.
[ Both scream ]
What now?
Kwame: The tanker is spilling
oily bilge water.
We gotta get outta here
before we're planet pulp!
[ Engine revs ]
What do we do?
What are we gonna do?
No! Fire!
Vacate the lock.
It can't hold the floodwaters.
We're in way over
our heads, guys.
Team time.
Ma-Ti, can you reach the girls?
I sure hope so.
Linka.
Gi.
**
[ Indistinct conversations ]
Looks delicious, Milton.
Da. I can hardly wait
to shovel in.
That's dig in.
Ma-Ti: Gi, Linka,
we need Captain Planet.
Watch for our beams.
Ready?
Then let our powers combine.
Earth!
Fire!
There.
Go, Linka.
Wind!
Water!
What's happening?
We don't know.
But Ma-Ti's beam
should be up there by now.
Something must
be very wrong.
Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa!
Come on, little buddy.
It's now or never.
Now.
Heart!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
Wheeler: Whoa!
Why do they always put
these landfills by the river?
It always floods.
The water gets polluted.
The soil gets contaminated.
Wheeler: Cap, Help!
Help!
Captain Planet: Oops.
I'd better slow the flow
before the Planeteers
trash and burn.
[ Indistinct shouting ]
Ahoy, there!
All hands on deck!
We don't want this flood
flaming the fill...
[ Grunts ]
...so I've gotta borrow
your little boat.
It'll make a dang fine dam.
Man: Phew. Captain Planet
saved the day.
"Tanks" a lot.
Now to put a lid
on that oil fire
before it tanks that big,
ugly dump.
Kwame:
The outboard!
It's full of gas!
It's gonna blow!
Next time, Planeteers, go solar.
Wheeler:
Ohh. Thanks, Cap.
Thanks, Cap.
Rub-a-dub-dub,
you'll be safe in this tub.
I'd love to stay and play King,
uh, Cap of the Mountain,
but I've got a hot date
with a trashy old fame.
-Way to go, Cap!
-You did it!
Great job, Cap.
Can I drop you somewhere?
Yes. Milton's.
No way!
If we don't get there
under our own steam,
the girls will know
we blew it.
True.
Come on, guys.
Are we hot dogs
or weenies?
You want a frank answer?
Not really,
but we could use a raft.
No problem.
Be back before you can say,
"Samuel Clemens,"
10 times, that is.
**
It always amazes me
how much good stuff
I find in the dump.
Here you go, Twain-ateers.
Thanks, Cap.
Thanks, Cap.
And remember,
the power is yours!
Thank goodness.
If they don't need Cap anymore,
they must be out of danger.
Da.
But maybe we should
go look for them, anyway.
Here y'all go.
Then again,
like you said, Gi,
they must be out of danger.
Yeah. And we wouldn't
want to interfere
with their great adventure.
Milton: Night, everybody!
Thank y'all for comin'!
Woman: Thank you, honey!
[ Indistinct chatter ]
Take care, y'all.
Wonder how Huck and company
are doing.
I sure hope they're okay.
That is debatable.
**
What happened to you?
Us?
Oh, not much.
Um, just a little
river outing,
like in the book.
And, boy, are we ready
for some of Milton's
famous crawfish.
Hey, Milton!
How are you?
-Hi.
-Hey. Good to see you boys.
Sorry you missed
the big boil.
The catfish we caught
were fantastic.
Catfish?
Wheeler and catfish --
never the twain shall meet.
Well, we're out
of fancy fixings.
We've always got plenty
of peanut butter in the house.
Peanut butter?
[ Groans ]
My favorite.
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!
All: Go, Planet!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
* Captain Planet
* He's our hero
* Gonna take pollution
down to zero *

hard-headed cuss.
[ Laughs ]
I think your catch would say
the same about you, eh, Wheeler?
[ Normal voice ] Even Huck Finn
knew when to give up.
Break out
the peanut butter, Kwame.
The dog ate it all.
[ Thunder crashes ]
Uh-oh.
And now, it's gonna rain
on our charade.
Maybe, it is time
to head to Milton's.
Lots of the river delta is too
polluted for fishin' these days.
I'm been checkin'
this area for years.
It's still pretty healthy.
[ Chuckles ] I'll say.
[ Chuckles ]
Bozhe moi!
I never knew
catching fishes was so easy.
[ Southern accent ]
You see anything out there?
[ Southern accent ] Yep. Rain.
Lots and lots of rain.
Water must be
overflowin' the banks.
If it don't let up soon,
we'll be drowned rats.
Look!
There's a light over yonder.
Head for it!
[ Thunder crashes ]
Hang on!
-Aah!
-Whoa!
-Whoa!
-Hang on!
[ All screaming ]
Hang on!
Whoa!
-Whoa!
-Whoa!
[ Grunts ]
[ Normal voice ]
Man, hairy rapids.
[ Flashlight rattles ]
[ Normal voice ]
But we are okay now, I think.
Is it just me,
or does anyone else
have that boxed-in feeling?
It feels like we're on
an elevator or something.
Next stop, ladies lingerie.
[ Horn blares ]
And here comes big Bertha!
[ Horn blares ]
We must have drifted
into one of the locks.
[ Both scream ]
What now?
Kwame: The tanker is spilling
oily bilge water.
We gotta get outta here
before we're planet pulp!
[ Engine revs ]
What do we do?
What are we gonna do?
No! Fire!
Vacate the lock.
It can't hold the floodwaters.
We're in way over
our heads, guys.
Team time.
Ma-Ti, can you reach the girls?
I sure hope so.
Linka.
Gi.
**
[ Indistinct conversations ]
Looks delicious, Milton.
Da. I can hardly wait
to shovel in.
That's dig in.
Ma-Ti: Gi, Linka,
we need Captain Planet.
Watch for our beams.
Ready?
Then let our powers combine.
Earth!
Fire!
There.
Go, Linka.
Wind!
Water!
What's happening?
We don't know.
But Ma-Ti's beam
should be up there by now.
Something must
be very wrong.
Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa!
Come on, little buddy.
It's now or never.
Now.
Heart!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
Wheeler: Whoa!
Why do they always put
these landfills by the river?
It always floods.
The water gets polluted.
The soil gets contaminated.
Wheeler: Cap, Help!
Help!
Captain Planet: Oops.
I'd better slow the flow
before the Planeteers
trash and burn.
[ Indistinct shouting ]
Ahoy, there!
All hands on deck!
We don't want this flood
flaming the fill...
[ Grunts ]
...so I've gotta borrow
your little boat.
It'll make a dang fine dam.
Man: Phew. Captain Planet
saved the day.
"Tanks" a lot.
Now to put a lid
on that oil fire
before it tanks that big,
ugly dump.
Kwame:
The outboard!
It's full of gas!
It's gonna blow!
Next time, Planeteers, go solar.
Wheeler:
Ohh. Thanks, Cap.
Thanks, Cap.
Rub-a-dub-dub,
you'll be safe in this tub.
I'd love to stay and play King,
uh, Cap of the Mountain,
but I've got a hot date
with a trashy old fame.
-Way to go, Cap!
-You did it!
Great job, Cap.
Can I drop you somewhere?
Yes. Milton's.
No way!
If we don't get there
under our own steam,
the girls will know
we blew it.
True.
Come on, guys.
Are we hot dogs
or weenies?
You want a frank answer?
Not really,
but we could use a raft.
No problem.
Be back before you can say,
"Samuel Clemens,"
10 times, that is.
**
It always amazes me
how much good stuff
I find in the dump.
Here you go, Twain-ateers.
Thanks, Cap.
Thanks, Cap.
And remember,
the power is yours!
Thank goodness.
If they don't need Cap anymore,
they must be out of danger.
Da.
But maybe we should
go look for them, anyway.
Here y'all go.
Then again,
like you said, Gi,
they must be out of danger.
Yeah. And we wouldn't
want to interfere
with their great adventure.
Milton: Night, everybody!
Thank y'all for comin'!
Woman: Thank you, honey!
[ Indistinct chatter ]
Take care, y'all.
Wonder how Huck and company
are doing.
I sure hope they're okay.
That is debatable.
**
What happened to you?
Us?
Oh, not much.
Um, just a little
river outing,
like in the book.
And, boy, are we ready
for some of Milton's
famous crawfish.
Hey, Milton!
How are you?
-Hi.
-Hey. Good to see you boys.
Sorry you missed
the big boil.
The catfish we caught
were fantastic.
Catfish?
Wheeler and catfish --
never the twain shall meet.
Well, we're out
of fancy fixings.
We've always got plenty
of peanut butter in the house.
Peanut butter?
[ Groans ]
My favorite.
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!
All: Go, Planet!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
