Dino Dana (2017–…): Season 1, Episode 9 - 20,000 Leagues Under the Prehistoric Sea Creature - Dino Dodgeball - full transcript
Inspired by a trip to the aquarium, Dana and Saara hunt the biggest shark ever, the prehistoric Megalodon. When Saara doesn't pick Dana for her dodgeball team because of her small size, ...

Boo!
[yelp]
How did you know?
You try to scare me every time
we come to the aquarium.
And one day it'll work.
Whoa, look at that one.
[Dana]
She's huge!
I wouldn't want to swim
with one of those.
[Sara]
Me neither.
[Dana] I wonder what
kind of shark it is.
That's a sand tiger shark.
How do you know its name?
The audio guide told me that it
can grow bigger than two of me.
That's big,
but it's not the biggest shark.
No, the biggest
is the whale shark.
It can grow as long
as eight of me.
[buzzer noise]
The biggest shark of all time
was the Megalodon.
It was also the most scary.
The Megalodon?
It's a prehistoric shark
that lived after
the dinosaurs went extinct.
So how big was it?
Paleontologists
don't know for sure
'cause the only bones they
can find were its teeth,
which were like
the size of my hand.
[growl]
So how will we ever
know how big it was?
Well...
The best way would be to go
back in time in a submarine.
[chuckle]
Wouldn't that be cool?
Yes, it would.
[***]
[**]
[sonar scanning]
No sign of the Megalodon...
yet.
Any luck on the sound scanner,
Commander Sara?
[Sara]
Activating sound scanner.
Scanning for any noises
outside the sub.
Nothing on the sound scanner,
Captain Dana.
Increase speed
to "faster."
She's gotta be
out there,
somewhere.
Aye aye, Captain.
Increasing speed to "faster."
[engine charging]
Where are you hiding,
Megalodon?
[***]
[**]
[***]
[beeping]
Contact!
Our Megalodon hunt
was a success.
Yes!
Now to see
how big she is.
We're gonna need to
get right up beside her.
How will that
show her size?
This submarine is
the size of a bus.
If we can get the Megalodon
right beside us,
we can guess her size
compared to our sub.
Huh.
Smart thinking, Captain.
Thank you,
Commander.
[beeping]
[Sara gasps]
She's almost on us!
[Dana]
Almost on us?
I don't see her,
Commander Sara.
[Sara]
She should be right there.
[Dana screams]
[***]
[**]
We're gonna need
a bigger sub.
Why would we need
a bigger submarine?
If she's the same
size as our sub,
that would make her the largest
water predator of all time...
Of... all... time.
Whoa.
Yeah, "whoa."
Big-time "whoa."
The Megalodon isn't like these
cute little sharks, seester.
These ones are
called bamboo sharks
because their color kind of
looks like bamboo sticks.
[Sara]
Oh.
But Megalodon's name
literally means
"mega" for "big"
and "-odon" for "tooth."
"Big tooth?"
Big tooth...
little sub.
Ooh, seems like the Megalodon
is hunting us now!
The audio guide said
big sharks usually capture
their food from below
so they can surprise them.
Think, Dana, think...
[gasp] These bamboo sharks are
also called "carpet sharks"
because they live at
the bottom of the ocean,
where it's safer because they
can see everything above them.
That means all we have to do
is get our sub lower
than the Megalodon
so it can't surprise us!
Good plan, Captain.
[***]
* [tense music] *
* [tense music] *
Dive, dive, dive!
Aye aye, Captain.
Dive, dive... diving!
[***]
[**]
[rumble]
We've been hit
by the Megalodon!
What's the damage?
[alarms blaring,
instruments beeping]
[Sara]
Everything's broken.
But at least we're safe
inside the sub.
[metal creaking and groaning]
[both scream]
[giggle]
Dana!
We're not safe
inside the sub.
Paleontologists think
that the Megalodon
had the strongest bite force of
any animal that ever existed.
Bite force?
Is that how strong it can bite?
Exactly.
[both growl]
Hm...
Do they know how strong
its bite force was?
They think it was
enough to crush a car!
[chuckle]
But isn't the metal
on a submarine
a LOT stronger
than on a car?
Good point.
But it's more exciting
if it could bite through.
[chuckle] I agree.
Back to screaming?
[both scream]
[giggle]
[scream]
Argh!
What do we do, Captain?
Our only hope is to
outrun the Megalodon.
Quick,
go to the engine room,
fix the engines,
and set our speed to "fastest."
I'll stay here and
try to dodge her.
Aye aye, Captain.
Commander...
Yes, Captain?
Good luck.
You too.
[***]
Get ready,
Megalodon.
[***]
[metal groaning]
Hurry, Commander!
She's too fast for us!
[***]
I'm almost there!
[grunting with effort]

[Dana] Someone wants to play
follow the leader, huh?
Well that's great,
'cause I like to lead.
[in tune to "Jaws" melody]

[alarm blaring,

[Dana]
We need more speed, Sara!
The Megalodon's almost on us!
[***]
[**]
Hurry, Sara!
[grunt]
Speed set to "fastest!"
[gasp]
[***]
[**]
We did it!
Megalodon high-fin.
Oh.
[chuckle]
I'm just glad the Megalodon
isn't around anymore.
I'm not so sure...
Dana, there's nothing--
Megalodon!!
Ha-ha.
Got you, finally.
N-No, you didn't.
I was just...
pretending to be scared.
Yeah, yeah, sure.
Whatever.
People who pretend to be
scared look like this:
[mocking whine]
I did not look like that.
Yes you did.
You can't see your own face.
[Sara]
Who says I can't?
[Dana]
Next up, more Dino Dana.

[Dana]
Wait up, Microraptor!
I have a dino experiment
to perform!
[Microraptor squeaking]
Dana, where have you been?
I've been trying to solve
dino experiment 510:
How did the Microraptor
protect itself from predators?
"Microraptor."
Which one is that again?
It's one of the smallest
dinosaurs ever discovered.
It was only like this big.
Well, we're gonna feel this big
if we're late to Coach Powers'
after-school gym program.
C'mon.
[squeaking]
[coach]
What... is...
dodge... ball?
A fun game where you
try to dodge balls,
or you're out.
[laugh]
"A fun game?"
Do you think a fight
for survival is fun?
It depends.
Are dinosaurs involved?
What?
Just say "no."
No?
Didn't think so.
[exaggerated grunting]
This is survival of the fittest,
dodgeball style!
Okay...
Ahem.
This ball must be flat.
[cough]
Two teams will battle it out
to see who will be victorious.
Only the strongest will win!
The weakest?
Well, they'll just put
everything away after the game.
Who's ready?!
[students cheer]
Alright...
Sara, Riley,
you'll be team leaders.
So choose your teams wisely.
Hm...
Aravindan.
Rainy.
Mm...
Ila.
Curtis.
Mm...
Tamara.
Which leaves Dana
for Riley's team.
Hoo!
Bit of a size difference here.
Alright, Sara,
your team will be called
the Fighting Tigers!
And Riley,
I'll call your team the...
...Purring Kitties.
Alright, everybody,
grab a ball and let's see
who will survive!
Remember, no throwing
in the face, though.
Hey, seester,
why didn't you choose
me for your team?
I would have, but Coach Powers
said "only the strongest win,"
and you're the smallest
kid here, and I...
I like to win!
[chuckle]
I like to win, too...
Sorry, just checking to make
sure this thing still works.
Alright, teams,
let's line up
and let's do this!
[students cheer]
Microraptor!
Hi, Microraptor.
[squawk]
What?
I can't hear you
through the glass.
[tapping]
[squeak]
[growling and hissing]
[growling and hissing]
An Ozraptor!
Now's my chance to finish
dino experiment 510:
How did the Microraptor
protect itself from predators?
[snarl, hiss]
...But only if you know
there's a predator.
Microraptor,
look behind you!
[squeak]
Be-hind you...
Big teeth...
Chomp chomp,
you.
[squeaking]
[snarling]
[Ozraptor growling,
Microraptor squeaking]
[Ozraptor growling,
Microraptor squeaking]
[Ozraptor growling,
Microraptor squeaking]
The Microraptor
uses its fast feet
to escape from predators.
[Ozraptor growling,
Microraptor squeaking]
[Ozraptor growling,
Microraptor squeaking]
But you can't run forever,
especially from a predator
that is larger
and has more
energy than you.
Why are you heading
back here, Microraptor?
You can't break through
the glass.
[Ozraptor growling,
Microraptor squeaking]
Sorry, buddy.
I guess bigger isn't
always better.
[coach]
Take your sides, people!
[hiss]
Rules are simple...
I blow the whistle,
you run to the center,
grab a ball,
and try to tag
the other team with it.
If you're tagged,
you're out, sit down.
Last team standing wins.
Understood?
[students]
Yeah!
Get back,
get back, get back...
Okay.
[***]
[whistle]
Go, go, go, go!
Ooh!
Rainy's out!
Curtis is out!
Riley, you're out!
Oh, ouch!
[laugh]
The Fighting Tigers completely
wipe out the Purring Kitties.
I guess size
does matter.
[laugh]
C'mon!
Yes, it does.
Rematch!
What are you talking
about, Dana?
We just got
destroyed out there!
They're way too big for us.
A lot of people think that
all dinosaurs were huge,
but they weren't.
There were some
really small ones
that figured out
ways to survive.
How is this helpful?
Because size does matter...
Especially when you're small.
Bigger isn't always better.
All the big dinosaurs
became extinct.
Do you know
who survived?
The little ones?
Exactly.
And they did it by being faster
and smarter than the big ones,
and that's just what
we're going to do.
We're gonna be...
Faster!
And...?
Smarter!
Sorry.
I love rousing speeches.
Are we doing this or what?
Oh, we're doing this...
Microraptor style.
[roar]
C'mon, Microraptors!
[whispering]
Here's the plan.
Microraptors are one of
the smallest dinosaurs
ever discovered.
They're also
one of the fastest.
They use their fast speed
to escape from predators.
That means we can
use our fast speed
to get the dodgeballs
before Sara's team.
Then what?
Then we take
them out one by one.
Ready?
Ready.
[team]
Go, Microraptors!
[coach]
Alright,
it's the final match between
the Fighting Tigers
and the...
[team]
Microraptors!
Oh yeah.
That seems to suit you better.
Don't know what it means,
but here we go!
Remember the plan.
[whistle]
Go, go, go!
Ooh!
Ila, you're out.
Great job,
Microraptors.
Tamara, you're out!
That's four to two
for the Microraptors.
Double hit!
Curtis, Rainy,
you're out!
The game's tied up.
Everyone,
grab a ball.
Let's go, let's go!
Let's hustle!
There's nowhere to run now.
[Microraptor squawking]
[Microraptor squawking]
[Ozraptor hissing,
Microraptors squeaking]
[Ozraptor hissing,
Microraptors squeaking]
[Dana] It's not just
about being fast...
It's about teamwork!
Riley, smaller dinosaurs
had to work together
to fight off bigger ones!
Work together, huh?
Let's do this.
[***]
[**]
[***]
[**]
I don't believe it...
The Microraptors win it!
Nice teamwork.
Great job, Microraptors.
We did it!
[sigh]
Good game, little seester.
Good game,
big seester.
Another rematch?
Sure.
But this time,
I'm gonna be on your team.
That move was awesome.
I know.
And that's what we
call sportsmanship.
Let's play again!

before Sara's team.
Then what?
Then we take
them out one by one.
Ready?
Ready.
[team]
Go, Microraptors!
[coach]
Alright,
it's the final match between
the Fighting Tigers
and the...
[team]
Microraptors!
Oh yeah.
That seems to suit you better.
Don't know what it means,
but here we go!
Remember the plan.
[whistle]
Go, go, go!
Ooh!
Ila, you're out.
Great job,
Microraptors.
Tamara, you're out!
That's four to two
for the Microraptors.
Double hit!
Curtis, Rainy,
you're out!
The game's tied up.
Everyone,
grab a ball.
Let's go, let's go!
Let's hustle!
There's nowhere to run now.

[Dana] It's not just
about being fast...
It's about teamwork!
Riley, smaller dinosaurs
had to work together
to fight off bigger ones!
Work together, huh?
Let's do this.

I don't believe it...
The Microraptors win it!
Nice teamwork.
Great job, Microraptors.
We did it!
[sigh]
Good game, little seester.
Good game,
big seester.
Another rematch?
Sure.
But this time,
I'm gonna be on your team.
That move was awesome.
I know.
And that's what we
call sportsmanship.
Let's play again!
