-Say good-bye, honey.
-Man on P.A.: The zoo
will be open again

at 9:00 tomorrow morning.

Thank you for visiting
and please come again.

I got it!

-Thanks, Elliott.
-No problem, Chip.

Now me! Now me!
I want to do a loopity loop!

(laughs) One loop de loop
coming right up!

-Ready, Chipper?
-All set.

(laughs)

-Heads up!
-I got it! I got it! I got it!

(Chip laughing)

Hey! Are we supposed to do
all the work ourselves?

This is Elliott's pile,
you know.

A little to the right, Zipper!
Right there!

Careful there, Zipper.

Captain Colonel's
mighty persnickety about
his peanut formations.

Thanks for your help, guys.

I want this just right
for my pop.

The Rescue Rangers are
always glad to lend a hand.

Yeah, especially since
we get to munch

all the peanuts we want.

Hey! Get your own peanut!

Golly! Good afternoon,
Captain Colonel.

(clears throat)

Rodents in the food supply!

This won't do at all!

Sorry, Pop.

Uh, sir.
My pile got away from me.

No wonder. They'll gobble
your provisions the moment
you blink!

-We would not!
-You just can't trust them!

-You can, too!
-We're the Rescue Rangers!

That's right, Pop!
And they're my friends!

Elliott, you are my son,

but beyond that,
you're a pachyderm,

and pachyderms
and rodents do not mix.

I'll pack that trunk of his
nine ways to Pittsburgh!

-Now, Monty.
-Sorry, lad.

-It's just that--
-That's okay.

Pop has a lot
of responsibilities
as leader of the herd.

He gets kind
of stuffy at times.

Don't worry, Elliott.
We'll have this cleaned up
in no time.

Right. Come on, Dale.
I think some nuts rolled
into the next cage.

Dale: Hey, lookit!
There's another one!

Gosh. I wonder how
it got way over here.

You clumsy--
you dropped all the nuts!

Me? You're the one
that threw the peanut at me!

-It's still your fault.
-Is not!

-Is too!
-Both: Oh!

What do you think
you're doing?

That's my last peanut!

Whoops!
Sorry about that.

We thought it was
from the elephants' pile.

The elephants have
a pile of peanuts?

-Hey!
-Oh!

Hey, ape faces!

I got a lead
on the peanut thieves!

Yo, Captain! Who died
and made you Mr. Peanut?

Mmm. Watch your tone, Bruin!

Check it out, Jeebee!
Looks like we found
the goober grabbers!

Can't get enough
of your own, eh?

Had to snorkel up
ours too, huh?

Let us
spell it out, nose-bud.

The rest of us had
all our peanuts nabbed.

And now your guys
with them built-in Hoovers

are swimming in 'em!

You're calling us thieves?

Well, the peanuts ain't
disappearing by themselves!

Hear that?
Sounds like a case for us!

Don't blame the results
of your incompetence on us

simply because we have
a superior method
of food storage!

Yeah, well, somebody's been
taking our food.

Then look
to those sinister-looking
simians behind you.

-Hey! Not us!
-We was robbed, too!

-Captain, we can help.
-We've caught plenty of crooks.

Oh, golly!

Captain:
Look sharp, men.

There are
peanut thieves about!

I want round the clock
surveillance! What?

Pop! I know someone
great at crime-solving!

We could use
the Rescue Rangers!

We are pachyderms, son.

We take care
of our own affairs!

Bruin:
Not so fast, hose nose.

Just what is
a Rescue Ranger?

They solve mysteries
and help people

and catch crooks
just like the ones
who stole your peanuts.

Huh. Sounds like the sort
of heavy-duty help we could use.

So, where do we find
these super men?

Right here.

(laughter)

I got it! I got it!

You yell real loud
at their ankles, right?

They'll go undercover
as peanuts!

Yeah, and they'll
a-roast the crooks.

-(laughing)
-A-roasting peanut.

Oh, good one, what?

Well, that blows it.

All right,
which pop-off's first?

I'll yank you pesky-derms
through the eye of a needle!

No, Monterey,
don't hurt them--

-for Elliott's sake.
-(grumbles)

Well, all right, but only
for Elliott's sake.

(laughter continues)

All right,
get a hold of yourselves!

I suggest we give
these Ranger persons
a chance.

Don't go doing us no favors!

-Shh!
-They are allegedly experienced
in methods of detection,

and their diminutive size
may actually give them
an edge of sorts.

You won't be sorry, Captain.

We'll start by questioning
every possible witness.

Rescue Rangers away!

(chuckles)
Give me a break.

Well, if you see
anything suspicious,
let us know, will ya?

Guess no one's home.

So, you're sure
you didn't see anything?

Not a thing, and we were
hanging around all night.

Come on,
you blaming dinosaur!

I got some questions!

(roars)

(yells, groans)

Uh, right,
we'll catch you later.

Chip:
Hello? Anybody home?

-Hi ,there! We--
-We don't know anything

about the missing nuts.

Ting-a-Ling.
We are honored
by your presence.

-Likewise.
-Wait a minute!

How'd you know we were
looking for the peanuts?

It would be hard not to know
that's why you are here.

Wow! May I?

Golly! This has better optics

than the one we have
at Ranger headquarters!

Ooh! Are you
an engineering student, too?

I just sort of dabble.
Self-taught, mostly.

Ming-Ting:
How nice to find
a kindred spirit.

Mother thought
we were too wrapped up
in our inventions.

So she sent us
on this stupid zoo tour
for some culture.

Ting-a-Ling.
Not that we do not like
your country.

(sighs)
We just did not expect
to miss our home so much.

Homesick, huh?

Chip:
Hey, what's this thing?

Oh, please to be careful.
It is very delicate.

-Sure looks neat.
-It is our digging machine.

Uh, he means
for our garden...

for the cultivation
of bamboo.

Gee, I'd love to see
more of your stuff.

-I'll be back later, okay?
-Yes, we'll talk then.

So, your interrogations
came up with nothing.

(humphs)
That's about what I expected
from you rodents.

(trumpets)

Attention! Circle up
for peanut detail!

(rumbling)

(coughing)

Not that we don't have
complete faith in you,

but this way
it's no one in,
no one out.

Thanks, Captain.
All right, Rangers.

-Dale and I will take
the first watch.
-Yes, sir!

(elephants snoring)

-(yawns)
-(snoring continues)

-Hey, wake up!
-Wha-- huh?

-Chip: You were sleeping.
-Dale: Was not. I was
resting my eyes.

Chip: Not so, I say.
You were asleep!

You're supposed
to watch the nuts,
not me, you big dummy.

"Big dummy" me?
You're the one who was asleep!

-(both shouting)
-(rumbling)

-We're supposed
to watch the nuts!
-I know! The nuts!

-(both shout) The nuts!
-(clears throat)

-Our nuts!
-Wah! Where's the fire?

-Wait a minute.
Where are the nuts?
-Both: Uh-oh.

Caught you red-handed!
I knew rodents couldn't
be trusted!

Huh? What are
you talking about?

We're trying to save
the peanuts!

Save them
for yourself, you mean.

(sniffs)

Aha! Just as I suspected!

Peanut breath!

-(elephant gasps)
-(murmuring)

-I only had one.
-Hey, you hose-heads!

-Cut the racket!
-Yeah, shove a stopper
in them trumpets of yours.

Hold on there, Heebee.
Looks like our pachydermal pals

had a visit from
the peanut pinchers.

Ooh! I think
you're right, Jeebee.

Did those Ranger guys
catch the crooks?

Captain:
Hardly. The Rescue guys
are the crooks!

-What?
-You're kidding.

I knew
you couldn't trust 'em!

Where'd they stash
the goods?

Yeah! I mean,
they couldn't have
eaten them all!

I don't know.
This one looks like
he put away a few.

Keep your hairy meathooks
off of me!

We didn't steal a darn thing!

-We're just trying to help!
-There is no proof
that they did it.

Yes, there couldn't be,
because we--

-Shh!
-Catch those crooks.

Smash 'em
into peanut butter!

-(trumpets)
-Things are getting ugly.

They'll look a lot uglier
when I get through
with 'em.

-Yeah!
-I say skin 'em.

Dale: Look out!

-Don't let 'em get away!
-Over there!

-Get 'em!
-(shouting)

Come on, get those guys!

Come on,
where are they hiding?

(whistles sharply)

-(shouts)
-Huh?

-We can't keep this up!
-We've got to get over the wall
before we're caught!

Good luck!
(inhales deeply)

(screaming)

Elliott, how could you?

Papa, please.
They're my friends.

I'm sorry, son,
but those scoundrels

were just using you
to get to our peanuts.

No, Papa!
They'd never do that!

I-- I don't think.

Listen to that!
They've got Elliott believing
we're the thieves.

But we didn't do anything!

Those skruggers already
got us tried and convicted.

(crying) Nobody will trust
the Rescue Rangers again.

What?

Hey! What'd you do that for?

We know
we didn't steal
the peanuts!

-Right!
-Do we know who did?

-No.
-Then what are
we waiting for?

Rescue Rangers away!

Keep alert, men!
We must protect

the last of the peanuts
until we can restock!

Open your eyes, son.
We must be on the lookout
for those rodent fiends.

Yes, Father.

We've gotta look for clues
where the peanuts disappeared.

No problem!
Leave the distraction
to Gadget and me.

Be careful, guys.

Here's one for you, Captain!

A 21-nut salute!

Sneak attack!

(trumpeting)

Take cover, troops!

-Hurry and look for clues!
-(coconut whistling)

(Zipper shouts)

(both scream)

This is how they did it.
They took the peanuts
through these tunnels.

What is this stuff?

-It's peanut butter.
-(Zipper babbles)

This is weird.
What kind of thing
could've dug this tunnel?

-Thing?
-I don't recognize
the claw marks.

But whatever it was,
it sure was big.

Ju-ju-ju-just how big?

-(squeaking)
-(all gasp)

-A monster!
-Run!

-Oh no!
-It's a dead end!

-It ate the panda kids!
-You dummy! It's a machine!

-What's going on here?
-(both sigh)

Monty!
We're out of coconuts!

Well, I wouldn't worry
about that, Gadget!

-Get down!
-Ready troops?
Return fire!

(inhaling deeply)

I'm glad we weren't
shooting watermelons!

You see, the engine
of our dragon digger

runs on peanut oil that we get
from smashing peanuts.

And that's what makes
the peanut butter!

Mm-hmm-hmm! Yum!

We finally have enough fuel

to let us dig
all the way to China.

Wowee!
Look at all them peanuts!

Ming-Ting:
We know stealing
the peanuts was wrong.

We just didn't
know we would miss
our parents so much.

Don't worry.
The Rescue Rangers will find
a way to get you home.

Head for the peanut pile!

Rodent attack!
Quick, men! Double stomp!

(both scream)

The fiendish devils!

They're trying
subterranean subterfuge!

Well, we'll flush them out!

Attention men!
Triple stomp!

No, Papa!
You'll crush them!

(whirring, spitting)

Wait! You do not know
how to drive it!

Whoa! Whoa!

Whoa-ho!

We've got them
on the run now, men!

Papa, stop!

(gasps)
It was you guys.

Crikey, Gadget!
Look at the peanuts!

Bet them pachyderms
would quit their rumba
if they got these back.

We wish to make amends.
We can help return them.

But it took us a long time
to get them all down here.

-Monterey, we need
the firehouse!
-Right!

(crocodile roars)

Bombs away, Gadget!

-Phew! I sure am glad
we got that thing stopped.
-(rumbling)

Wha-- what's that?

(gibbering)

Strange. Doesn't sound
like a rodent.

(screams)

(gasps)
It's all the peanuts.

But who could've...

Rescue Rangers
at your service, Captain.

Man on P.A.:
We feel the pandas

will get better care
back home in China.

They sure seem pleased
for being so sick.

Man 2:
Do you think this panda pox
may be contagious?

Well, not unless you consider
paint contagious.

-Hey!
-(laughter)

Capital job, Rangers.

Um, perhaps you could
help me with something else?

-Sure!
-What can we do for you?

I believe it's called
a loop de loop?

(laughs)

I always knew
they'd solve the case.

-Hey, they're
the Rescue Rangers!
-(laughter)
