Dinotopia (2002): Season 1, Episode 3 - Episode #1.3 - full transcript

- The senate recognizes
Skybax's Captain Oonu.

We are ready to hear your report.

- Lord Mayor, Senators,

Unabba has been evacuated.

There are reports of large scale attacks

right along the Eastern quarter.

(mumbling)

Permission to speak frankly, sir.

- Please continue.

- Our squadrons can no longer patrol

the Eastern territories.



The Tyrannosaurus herd is
destroying everything in it's path

and the Pteranodons are breaching all

their traditional boundaries.

I request permission to reassign the corps

to protect the refugees
on the eastern approach

to Waterfall City.

- You are not the only province

to be experiencing difficulty.

- We must evacuate everyone
in the outer settlements

and bring them here to Waterfall City

for protection, sir.

- We cannot support the
whole of Dinotopia here

on this island city.

We simply don't have the resources.



(dinosaur talking)

- Last week, my new students graduated.

I have been pushing them
harder than ever before.

I am not training them to seek peace.

I am training them to fight

and I fear, I am training them to die.

- He's right.

We must make an expedition
to the World Beneath

to find new sunstones.

- Sit down.

- Yes but Mayor, I...

- You have spoke already.

We must protect our traditions

and follow the ancient codes.

Just as we live by the codes of Dinotopia,

so must we prepare to die.

- And die we will.

(dramatic music)

- Lord Mayor, Lord Mayor.

- Yes, yes, what is it?

- They're coming, sir.

- Who is coming?

- The refugees, sir.

A sea of them.

(loud chattering)

- Look at those poor souls.

I could just grab those
senators by their robes

and shake them.

Somebody has to do something.

- That's called anger, Zippo.

You're making progress.

- The prime sunstone
won't last much longer.

- Wait a minute, this looks
like the Temple in the Swamp.

- [Zippo] Yes, of course.

According to the scroll, it
is called the Temple of Kora.

These carvings look very familiar.

- We must go back there.

If this leads to the World beneath,

that's where the sunstones
will be, I'm sure of it.

- But that's also where we'll find

those prehistoric crocodiles.

- Yes and my tail is only
just growing back, you know.

- But it's the only entrance, Zippo.

- Suppose it's blocked or flooded.

And maybe it's not even an entrance.

We're just guessing.

- That horrible Cyrus Crabb

had a scroll describing
another entrance beneath

the sea called the Diamond Cave.

I will go to the library and research it.

- We haven't got time
for anymore research.

And what are we gonna do,

just stand around and
wait for the carnivores

to come crashing through the city gates?

- Marion's right.

We gotta do something.

- I'm going back to the temple,

even if I have to go alone.

- Well, I guess we're
going back to the swamp.

- Somebody's gotta stay
here and look after 26.

- It would an honour.

- And don't leave the
window open at night.

At her age, she can get
a chill very easily.

- I think I do know how to
take care of a baby dinosaur.

- Oh and she likes her
bread dipped in warm milk.

You behave yourself 26

and don't give Uncle Zippo a hard time.

- There he is.

Finally.

- Well, that took long enough.

- What?

I was just making sure she's okay.

- If you're going where
I think you're going,

you better turn back.

You'll never find the entrance.

- I'm done taking advice from you.

- Yes, well I paid three expeditions

to explore that swamp temple.

You know what?

Not one of them came back for their money.

- We're not afraid.

- Yeah, that's right.

- There is another way, Karl, a safer way.

In a few clays, my plans will be sorted,

if you want to come with me.

- No way, Cyrus, forget it.

- Don't be a fool, boy.

I'm trapped on this island same as you,

whether I like it here or not.

- You sabotaged my boat.

- Yes and you gave me a rock instead

of a sunstone so let's
call it evens, alright?

- What's he talking about?

- Nothing.

- Understand, I want the
same thing that you want.

I want to save this hell of a place,

not 'cause I like it,

because I want to save me own skin.

- Forget it.

- Hey, Karl.

Here.

I don't know if it'll work.

Must be 50 years old.

Keep your wits about you, Karl.

There's worse than
Mosasaurs to worry about.

- [Marion] Don't listen to him.

- Come one, he's just trying to scare us.

(dinosaurs whining in the distance)

- Karl, I have to ask you something.

- Yeah?

- Is it true, what Crabb said?

You stole a sunstone?

- I didn't steal it.

I just borrowed it for awhile.

Anyway, I gave it back, didn't I?

- I can't think of anything
much worse you could do.

It's a hatchery, Karl.

- Yeah, well I heard all
about your mountain trip.

- And what exactly did you hear?

- That you spent the night with my brother

in one of those nests.

- So'?

- So'?

So what happened up there between you two?

- We got very close, that's what happened.

Because unlike you, he's a sensitive soul.

Zippo found a passageway
leading to a hidden chamber.

- Wow.

(bubbling)

Come on, let's keep going.

- Did you hear that?

- No, will you stop doing that?

- I'm getting a bad feeling about this.

- No, I think David's right.

Something feels very wrong.

We should leave.

- Wait.

(gun firing)

(screeching)

Come on, let's move.

Keep going.

(screeching)

- [David] Karl?

- No.

- Come on, let's go, let's go, come on.

(roaring)

(screeching)

- Oh man, are we glad to see you.

- David and Karl Scott,

you're under arrest.

You'll be escorted by guard to face trial

in Waterfall City.

- I can't believe this.

We must contact my father immediately.

- Your father issued the order, Marion.

- Why are we being arrested?

On what charge?

- It's not a single charge.

You seem to have broken just
about every law in Dinotopia.

- Don't despair, lads.

Could be worse.

Could be dead.

Hope you've got a good lawyer.

Not that it'll make any difference.

- Hey, Cyrus.

That flare gun you gave me came in handy.

Thanks.

- There's no time to squander
over past misunderstandings.

We have work to do boys.

A good lawyer, remember?

- This court is now in session.

David and Karl Scott,

the charges facing you could
hardly be more serious.

You have brought disruption
and violence to Dinotopia.

In total, you stand
accused of 21 violations.

22.

Not only did you attempt
to leave Dinotopia,

which is forbidden, you
also stole a sacred sunstone

from a hatchery.

Not satisfied with these crimes,

you both violated the sacred entrance

to the World Beneath

and awakened the Pteranodon swarm

that has guarded the temple for centuries.

There is no defence for these actions.

However, you are entitled
to representation.

Do you have a lawyer?

- Present, your honour.

My apologies for being late.

Excuse me.

Mammals and Saurians of the jury,

I accept the behavior of these boys

is somewhat unconventional
but what heart they have.

My own life was saved by an act

of selfless Dinotopian courage from Karl.

When I was viciously
attacked by a giant Mosasaur.

I would like to enter my half-bitten tail

as Exhibit A.

- Would you like to tell us why

you were put in jeopardy
in the first place?

- Yes, well, because
the boys had fallen over

the falls while fighting at
their graduation ceremony.

- A disgraceful breach
of civilized behavior.

- Yes, yes, well I would have

to agree with you there, your honour.

- He is on our side, isn't he?

- We will now take testimony

from Skybax caption, Oonu.

- Thank you, Lord Mayor.

When David came to the Skybax Academy,

he was one of the least promising
pupils I have encountered.

Yet, through strength of character,

he overcame his weaknesses,

trained hard and finally
showed us that he is a flyer.

A flyer like no other I have ever seen.

I am proud to of been his teacher.

- Yes, thank you Captain Oonu

for that glowing testimony.

Now rejoin your squadron.

(dinosaurs talking)

- I initially found the boys disobedient,

quarrelsome, problematic.

They're not like us and
perhaps they never will be

but how can we call ourselves Dinotopians

if we only respect
those who agree with us.

If we are to learn, first we must listen.

In spite of our differences,

I have come to respect
the boys tremendously.

One raindrop raises the sea.

- Exactly, your right.

So think of what two raindrops could do.

- David, we're doomed.

- None of this would've happened

if you hadn't sent our
daughter to Canyon City.

- Nothing at all would happen

if it were left up to you, Waldo.

- You may be happy to
risk our daughter's life

but I certainly am not.

- Can you stop talking about
me as though I'm not here?

Karl and David risked
their lives to save you

and everyone else here

and you've thrown them in jail.

- They are simply being
confined to quarters.

They must not be allowed
to cause anymore trouble.

- Trouble?

The sunstones are failing, that's trouble.

At least they had the courage
to try and find a solution.

- Marion, your mind has become clouded

in recent months.

Those boys are not your responsibility.

You should concentrate on
completing your studies.

Do one thing at a time.

Seventh law of Dinotopia.

- Eat to live, don't live to eat.

10th law of Dinotopia.

- Marion.

- Do you see the terrible influence

these boys have had on her?

She never used to be sarcastic.

- If you're in such harmony,

then why do you live 100
miles away from each other?

- We both serve Dinotopia
in different ways.

And duty before personal satisfaction.

- You see?

It's happened again.

- Again?

Waldo, why didn't you tell me

that this had happened before?

- It's just a temporary situation.

The polishers will be at
work even as we speak.

It usually lasts only a few seconds.

- That's the prime sunstone.

If it fails, then...

- We are due to discuss the situation...

- Discuss?

We're sitting in darkness.

Something has to be done.

- A Dinotopian mind is
a calm mind, Marion.

There you see.

Back to normal.

Nothing at all to worry about.

(screeching)

- Don't despair, Karl.

It could be worse.

They only placed you under house arrest.

- I'm too old to be grounded.

- Exactly, I mean, everything we did,

well, except for you stealing a sunstone,

everything else like, going to the temple,

I mean, we were just trying to help.

So why can't the Senate understand that?

- Well, the senate may be angry

but I think I can get
you a light sentence.

- I can't believe these
people can charge us

for trying to help them.

I mean, who are they to say
what we can and can't do?

- Remember to keep your
closing speech short

and please, whatever you do,

don't upset Mayor Waldo.

- All that remains before judgement

are the closing speeches
from Karl and David.

Serious accusations have been made

and you make speak freely and with candour.

- Speak freely is about the
last thing you're allowed

to do here.

- Oh no.

- You do this big number about listening

but nobody really listens.

Well, listen to me now.

I don't care about your
rules and superstitions

so you can do what you want with me

but you should let my brother go.

You're gonna need every
Skybax cadet in the corps.

This whole place is going to hell unless

you do something about it and you know it.

- Oh dear.

- You didn't have to do that.

- Yes, I did.

And don't make a big thing about of it.

(coughs)

- Wait a minute.

- This court has reached a judgement.

Karl and David, you will
both resume your studies

and you will not leave
Waterfall City until

you have both fully understood
your transgressions.

Karl, you are deemed unfit

to care for an infant and
your Chasmosaur partner

will be taken to the city
orphanage for adoption.

- No, no way.

- [Zippo] Karl, sit down.

Don't make it any worse.

- We are all in accord on this matter.

- We would like to lodge an appeal.

- We will review the
case in one year's time.

- One year?

- Court dismissed.

- I'm telling you, I'm sick of this place.

I'm not gonna let them
take 26 away from me.

Hey, you listening to me?

(knocks)

- I'll get it.

Oh, no, no, no, you're going
to put me in sack again.

- I'm not going to hurt you.

- You're not?

- No I'm not.

I'm here to help the boys.

- You promise?

- It's alright Zippo.

Let him in.

- Okay, but on your head be it.

- I've waited 20 years for this.

The final pieces of the jigsaw.

The captain's log of the Rebecca's Folly

which you kindly borrowed for me.

And the journal of Arthur Denison,

the first true explorer of Dinotopia.

This is his account of the World Beneath.

- [Zippo] Fascinating.

- You see, Arthur Denison
made it to the World Beneath

and back but he wasn't alone.

There was another man with him.

That man was Lee Crabb.

My father.

Together the two of them explored

the World Beneath and on their return

they were promptly arrested by the Senate.

Violation of ancient laws and so on.

So now I know the way
to the sunstone caves

and the way out of Dinotopia.

But I can't do it alone, not with this.

I need your help boys.

- I don't trust him.

- What's not to trust?

- So you knew about the
sunstone cave all along?

- You see, I've spent the past
20 years reading everything

I can find on the World Beneath.

The Senate would've stopped me long ago

if they knew of my plans, I'm sure.

But lucky for them, they didn't

because now I'm the only one

that can save those damn
scams, no offence Professor.

Do you have anything we can mix this with?

- What is that?

- Articas Eleusis.

A rare plant extract.

Now could you please take this
and give it to the guards?

- It won't harm them will it?

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

just give them a nasty little
headache when they wake up,

nothing serious, I promise.

- Refreshments.

I'll just leave them over here.

Enjoy.

Once they find you're missing,

they'll block the bridge and
we'll be trapped in the city.

- The canal runs under the
garbage chute next to my shop.

A hundred feet downstream,
there's a red buoy,

I'll leave a boat for you there.

But first there's something I need

and Professor, I'm afraid you're
the only one who can help.

- What, me?

Are you sure?

- I can get us to the World Beneath

but we don't stand a fighting chance

without a map of the caves down below.

- There's a map?

- Yes, Denison's journals were confiscated

when he returned from the World Beneath

and locked up in the library archives.

If you can find the journal
then we have the map.

- And then what?

- Take the boat down the Polongo River.

I'll take care of the rest.

- Hurry, quick.

(laughing)

- Good show, boys.

Good luck and Godspeed.

(heavy breathing)

- [Zippo] Well, if it's here,
it will be in this cabinet.

- I thought you said
the fire destroyed all

the books and scrolls
on the World Beneath.

- It's true, the main
library was badly burnt

but not all the books were destroyed.

After the fire, it was decided to restore

the more valuable documents and place them

in this archive for safe keeping.

(dinosaurs talking)

Oh it's no use, we'll never find it.

- Hey guys, I think this is it.

The journal of Arthur
Denison, Victorian Engineer

and Explorer, Volume
ll: The World Beneath.

- [Mayor Waldo] Masorah,
lend me your nose old friend.

- "This private volume of my memoirs

"will never be published.

"Dinotopians hold the World Beneath sacred

"and I have no wish to offend
their deep spiritual beliefs.

"Nevertheless, my expedition
by submarine revealed..."

- Perhaps we can read it later.

- Listen, "I found enormous caves

"with strange phosphorescence.

"I began to believe that
they had been occupied

"in ancient history, first by dinosaurs

"and then later, human cultures."

- This way, this way.

Do you still have their scent Masorah?

We'll get them for good this time.

- Somebody's coming.

- [Mayor Waldo] Guards,
seize them at once.

Marion, Marion, stop those two boys,

don't let them escape.

Marion, comeback.

- Wait for me.

Why am I doing this?

I'll never be allowed
in the library again.

- [Karl] This way.

- This way, hurry.

- You go that way, you with me.

- [David] Zippo, Zippo come
on, what are you doing?

- This is where he threw me in the canal

and stuffed me in a sack.

This is making me feel very anxious.

- Don't be such a baby.

- [Marion] Where's the boat?

- It's over there.

- [Marion] Zippo, you go and get the boat.

- Yes, what me?

- [Marion] Go on, go now.

- Oh.

- Quickly, quickly, get in.

Come on Marion, that's it.

Quick, quick, quick.

Maybe one of my ancestors
was a sailor after all.

- Cyrus really came
through for us this time.

- Well, don't thank him yet.

- Yes, well, personally I'm
not quite sure about him yet.

We're heading for the cargo chute.

But it's not designed for Saurians

or humans for that matter.

- [Karl] What do you mean, Zippo?

- [Zippo] Oh no, do something.

Oh my god.

(screaming)

Oh, I think that's it now.

(screaming)

- [David] Does anyone
know where we're going?

- Uh, no.

Guess we're just gonna have

to go where the current takes us.

- How very Dinotopian, David.

- It is.

Well said, David.

(dinosaur screeching)

- Did Crabb say exactly
where he'd meet us?

- He seemed to think
we'd be able to find him.

- Up ahead, look.

- Could that be it?

- Oh dear.

We could still turn back, you know.

- [Marion] Isn't that
Cyrus's calling card?

- Wait for me.

Oh, slimy.

(creaking)

- What is it?

Oh, Monosaurus, who could do such a thing?

- Welcome aboard.

Good to see you again.

- Oh.

- I trust you all had a pleasant

and uneventful trip.

- Did you do this?

- Oh, that, oh me?

No, no, no, no, no.

Now you're insulting
the Crabb family name.

No, that's merely a small
but regrettable part

of a collection acquired by my father.

He man was a man of many
trades, much like myself.

This was his store house.

I'm sorry, would you like a drink?

- Sure.

- You'll need one where we're going.

(laughing)

- Gross.

- Very interesting, isn't it?

Rather a smokey after taste.

Well, enough talk.

Now it's time to show
you my pride and joy.

Over here.

She's a beauty, isn't she?

No one knows it survived.

- Denison's submersible.

- There is no way I'm
going down there in that.

- Oh, doesn't look in too bad a shape.

- No.

- Careful, Karl, oh dear.

- Maybe not.

- Oh, there you go, you
can be our chief mechanic.

And you can be our navigator.

- Thanks.

- And what about me?

What can I do?

- Professor, I haven't forgotten you.

Those keen eyes of yours,
sharper than a humans, eh?

- Oh well, that's very true, thank you.

- Would you be so kind as
to keep look out for us?

- What?

Out there?

- Yes, out there, go along.

- By myself?

- It's okay, ZiPPO-

(banging)

- This one do anything?

- Right rudder.

- This?

- Woah.

(laughing)

- Yes, we like that.

- Hey, how's it going?

- Hey, you know I've been thinking about

this expedition.

- Yeah?

- Well, the first time
we found an entrance

to the World Beneath it was filled

with giant crocodiles, right?

- Right.

- Then the second time it was
filled with giant bats, right?

- Yeah, what's your point?

- Well...

- What the hell is that for?

(singing)

- I rest my case.

- Well, the engines okay.

I replaced the pistons

but I can't figure out powers this thing.

- I'll give you a clue.

(creaking)

Sunstones.

- [Karl] Oh, that's why you've
been stealing the sunstones.

- I've tried every sunstone I could find.

But none of them seemed to fit.

And then I was looking at
pretty young Marion here

and suddenly it hit me.

- This sunstone was given
to me by my grandmother.

- It was given to your
grandmother, Oriana by

the explorer Arthur Denison, wasn't it?

- And the note, "Find the light."

- Would you mind terribly,
my dear, if we borrowed it?

- This is the most
valuable thing I possess.

- Try the propeller now.

. Okay-

(clanking)

(screeching)

- Well, Marion, now it's
time to say Bon Voyage.

- [Marion] What do you mean?

- Well, I'm sorry my
dear by neither you nor

that scaley outside, Zippo, can come.

There's only room for
three aboard this vessel.

- The submarine is built for four.

- I'm not one to tempt our good fortune,

not when the future of
Dinotopia hangs in the balance.

We'll be heavy enough when
them sunstones on board.

Come on.

- He's right, Marion.

- Promise me you'll both be careful.

I don't want anything to
happen to either of you.

I love you both.

- We'll be alright.

- Okay, let's go.

- Did you hear that?

She loves us both.

- She was looking at you when she said it.

- Hey, come on, we're wasting time.

The World Beneath awaits.

- Lord Mayor.

- Your report, cadet?

- The most recent sighting report in

the case of excess of

- A 100 thousand?

- Of the three squadrons
assigned missions today,

only ours has returned.

- What is of Volcanium?

- Volcanium is gone, sir.

There's no one left alive.

- That's not possible.

- If they continue on
their current flight path,

the Pternaodons converge on Waterfall City

in less than 12 hours.

- 12 hours?

- I have other communities to warn, sir.

- Yes, yes, of course, you're dismissed.

Breathe deep.

- Fly high.

- This should send us down.

- No, no, no, move away.

Move away.

Let's see, we need to a
little bit of air out.

As far as I can tell, we have
three hours of good air left.

- How long does it take
to get to the cave?

- About three and a half hours.

(screeching)

(roaring)

- You okay?

- Yeah, sure.

- No.

- Me neither.

- Relax boys.

We'll hear worse than that
before we reach the bottom.

- So your father really made
it down to the World Beneath?

- Ah, there and back
in this very submarine.

- How come you're not a rich man?

- Oh, they wouldn't let him return.

The sealers didn't like the idea

of having their sacred place
found so they confiscated

his journal, burned it to
ashes and locked him away.

But before he died, he
pulled me up very close

and he said to me, "Denison
also kept a journal."

I've spent my whole life
searching for that journal.

After he died, they found
hundreds of small notes,

they all said the same thing.

"I found them."

- Sunstones?

- Block it boys, block it.

Can't you go any faster than that?

- Without the prime sunstone,

all the others will fail.

This may be the end for Dinotopia.

- What are we to do?

- Citizens are already
gathering in Fountain Square

by the obelisk of codes.

Will you lead the city
in a prayer of hope?

- Of course.

But why me?

- The sunstone I gave you was small

but it was an almost perfect gem.

Show it to the city, it will bring hope

and then we can take it
to the Sunstone Tower

and perhaps it will bring back the light.

For one night, at least.

- I don't have it anymore.

I gave it to David and Karl
to power the submarine.

- You gave those two the most
flawless sunstone ever found?

- I thought it was the
Dinotopian thing to do.

- I only hope it was worth
all our lives, Marion.

(screeching)

- Maybe we should turn on the light,

see where we are.

- And drain the power?

We don't want it too soon.

(banging)

- What was that?

- The sea bed, boys.

We're making progress.

- It's getting really hot in here.

- And hard to breathe.

- [David] That's our plane.

- Prepare yourselves
for an ugly sight, boys.

There won't be much left of him by now.

The fish would have...

- If you don't shut up, I'm gonna hit you.

- Seen a few downers in my
time, that's all I'm saying.

No offence to the dead.

- It's empty-

What?

Can't be.

- There it is, boys.

We've got the hit the entrance just right.

(dramatic music)

(laughing)

Come on.

- Fresh air, finally.

- Come on boys, no time to waste.

Welcome to the south entrance
of the World Beneath.

(screeching)

This is Ogthar, half-man, half-scaley.

Founder of Poseidos.

If you believe that kind of rubbish.

- So how do you get
half-man half-dinosaur?

(laughs)

- I don't think it's meant to be, Karl.

It's symbolic.

Humans and dinosaurs sharing
the same thoughts and desires.

Living together in perfect harmony.

- I'm with Karl on that one.

All of it looks a bit mucky to me.

- You can't just dismiss an
amazing archaeological discovery

because it all looks a bit mucky.

- Once a scaley, always a scaley.

Path splits up ahead.

Let's have a look at Denison's journal.

- Okay, "We walked almost a
mile underground due south.

"It was back the way we'd
come under the mainland

"and I began to realize
that the World Beneath ran

"the length and breath of Dinotopia.

"I followed left for 100 feet

"and then came to the old north gate

"where the Code of
Dinotopia was first carved

"into solid rock."

- Over there.

- This is where the monument
in Fountain Square came from.

So that must be the missing code.

- The first three letters were F-I-N.

- Well that's a D.

F-I-N-D.

Find the light.

- Look at this boys.

- [David] Look at that,

they carved their whole history on it.

Our history.

It's all right here.

- This is one of those theories, right?

That dinosaurs were wiped out by a meteor

and the meteor caused a tidal wave.

Looks like the end of the world.

- Well that must be the sunstone cave.

It become like, some kind of arch.

It saved them.

- Scaley histories.

Come on, we're near.

Very near.

- The ancient scrolls
warned of such a time.

But we must not give up hope, Marion.

Maybe when we least expect it,

help will come.

- Sunstone fragments.

This must be it.

- We're looking for something
a bit bigger than that, Karl.

This way.

- But the journal says
Denison walked due north

about a quarter of a mile.

That's north.

- But he'd stay on the
main path, wouldn't he?

Come on.

- Maybe we should split up.

We'll cover more ground that way.

- That's right.

Let's all split up.

And if you get lost, how are
you gonna find your way back?

I say we follow the main path, alright?

Come on.

- Come on.

(laughing)

- I think we're lost.

- Great.

- No need for that.

Come and look what I found.

This is it, we found the light.

(groaning)

(dramatic music)

This is it.

This is everything.

- [Karl] It's unreal isn't it?

Looks like something from another planet.

- Of course, you're right.

The temple pictures make sense now.

The dinosaurs didn't
find the sunstone cave.

The meteor that hit the earth,
that is the sunstone cave.

- Come on boys.

Let's get all these loaded.

Time's running out for
our friends upstairs.

- [Zippo] It's the end isn't it?

- [Marion] I believe it is.

- I've always said that I would
never seek another partner

after the death of my
beloved but if I ever was,

it could only be you.

- I am and always will
be your truest friend.

Breathe deep, Zippo.

- [Zippo] Seek peace, Marion.

(roaring)
(screeching)

(high pitched ringing)

- [Cyrus] Hurry up, hurry up.

- [David] Careful.

- That should do it, boys.

- You know, I don't think
can take all these, Cyrus.

We're too heavy.

- He's right.

It's too dangerous.

You're gonna have to make a second trip.

- I don't think she has
a second trip in her.

Something will have to go.

- What do you mean?

- Well let me put it this way,

I don't want to risk
losing our precious cargo

so something will have to go.

But I don't think it'll be the sunstones.

(laughs)

- You can't be serious.

- I'd like to thank you gentlemen

for all your hard work

but if you'll excuse me,
I'll be taking my leave.

- Cyrus, you're not leaving us down here.

- [Karl] David!

- Oh, what are you gonna do?

(mumbling)

- I knew we couldn't trust you.

- Oh, a little boxing match, eh?

Well I don't think so.

'Cause I'm a street
fighter and I always win.

- Dad?

- Dad?

- Well, well, well, all this time alone

in a cave and still alive, eh?

Well it's time to say goodbye.

- You're not going anywhere.

(screaming)

- Karl.

(yelling)

- Don't be crazy.

Just let 'em go.

- Good idea

- Hope you enjoy your family reunion.

Cheerio.

(laughing)

- How did you get here?

I saw you drown.

- I nearly did drown.

I finally managed to break free when

the plane hit the ocean floor.

I thought I was swimming for the surface

but I came out here instead.

- What'd you do for food?

- All in good time, I'll
tell you everything.

First off, I wanna hear about you two.

There's plenty of time to hear about me.

- Ow.

- Sorry did I hurt you?

Are you okay?

- It's okay.

- I can't believe it.

Seeing you both again, it's like magic.

You know, when I heard your voices,

I thought, you know, this is it.

I've gotten weak, I'm
beginning to hallucinate.

Now this is the end.

- Well, you kind of surprised us too, Dad.

I mean, we thought...

- God, I missed you.

- [David] I missed you too.

- Both of you.

You've changed, I don't know what it is,

but you're different.

Look at you, David.

I couldn't believe you facing
down that guy like that,

whoever he was.

- Cyrus Crabb.

- Come on.

Come on!

- Now Karl, let's get you up.

Come on.

I know it's only a flesh wound
but it's gonna hurt, okay?

Come on, lean on me.

Damn it.

I just don't seem to have
the strength I used to have.

- Are you alright?

- Yeah, okay.

- Now all we have to
do is get out of here.

- Yeah, but how are we gonna do that?

Cyrus just took the only way out.

- He's not going very far.

Not without any gas.

(banging)

- Karl!

Come on, fit.

Oh!

No.

No, not like this.

(roaring)

- That's it then.

No more Cyrus.

- And no more boat.

- There must be another way out of here.

(screeching)

- [Zippo] By the sacred
codes, Pteranodons.

- Everybody keep together.

Come on, stay with me.

Come on, keep up, keep up.

Come on, get in, get in, get in, get in,

get in, get in, come on, come on.

Oliver!

(screaming)

- Karl, I told you, I already looked.

Denison and Lee Crabb left
the same way they came,

in the submarine.

There's nothing in the journal
about any other way out.

- That doesn't mean there isn't one.

Dad, how much of this place have you seen?

- How much have I seen?

I don't know.

I've walked maybe 2-300
miles of these caves.

It's hard to say.

Some of them, I couldn't get
through because of the bats.

No there's no way out.

None, trust me I would have
found it by now if there was.

- Dad, is there any other
way out of this place?

- This is it.

- Wait a minute.

This is the flare I dropped
into the well, remember?

- Right so.

- The temple in the swamp.

This must be the other
end, we can get out.

- That's great.

Dad, what's wrong?

- Must be hundreds of feet to the surface.

- The way I see it, we
don't have a choice.

- He's right dad, we don't.

- You go ahead, bring back help.

- What are you talking about?

There is no other way of getting back.

This is our last chance.

- There's no way that I'm
gonna go underwater again.

I can't do it.

- Yes you can.

We can't go without you.

- I can't do it.

Listen, I'm scared, okay.

It's the simple truth, I'm just scared.

I can't.

- Dad, you never get scared.

- Would you listen to me?

I can't go back in the water, okay?

I don't think you have
any idea what it's like

to come this close to drowning.

I don't wanna ever go
through that again, okay?

I can't.

- Dad, dad, look at me.

Look at me.

You spent all that time
alone in the dark thinking

you'd never see or hear
another human being again.

That would break most men.

Not you.

You survived and you held
on and I think you're

the bravest man I've ever known.

Now this is nothing compared

to what you went through

and this time, we can
get through it together.

Alright?

Here.

- You can hold your breath

for longer than any of us, remember?

- This will light the way.

We can do this.

Right, we'll just, we'll count to three

and then take a deep breath, okay?

Okay.

One.

- [All] Two, three.

(dramatic music)

(coughing)

- [Dad] You okay, Karl?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

- I can't believe we made it.

- Dad, you did it.

We found the gateway.

The gateway to the World Beneath.

- And the sunstone cave.

- I don't understand.

- Dad, you're a hero.

(screeching and screaming)

- You okay?

- Yeah.

. Okay-

- Oh and Dad, don't put
your foot in the water.

- Why not?

- You don't wanna know.

(screeching)

- [Dad] What is that?

- [David] It's alright dad.

It's Free-fall.

- It's what?

- Stay here.

Karl, look after Dad.

I've got to get back to the city.

I'll send for help.

(screeching)

(screeching)

(screaming)

- David.

(screeching)

(roaring)

- Marion, please wake up.

Oh dear.

- In recognition of the remarkable courage

you have demonstrated in our darkest hour,

we present you with this
symbol of our gratitude

and request that you and
your steed, Free-fall join

the Skybax squadron.

(applause)

- Well done, David.

- Thank you.

I'd like permission to join

the search for my father and brother.

- Of course.

The Skybax patrols and
all the Earthfarm riders

are out searching for them now

but preliminary reports
showed no signs of anyone

at the temple, David.

- That's impossible.

- [Mayor Waldo] I assure you,
I will expend every effort

to find your brother and father,

I will not rest until they are safe.

- Who's that?

(squealing)

- 26, did you miss me?

Did you miss me?

Marion, I'd like you to
meet my father, Frank Scott.

- Very nice to meet you.

- It's very nice to meet you too, Marion.

Have to forgive me, I'm a
little overwhelmed by everything

that's been happening to me.

- You must be Frank Scott.

I've heard so much about you.

- Is he safe?

- It's okay, Dad.

He's not gonna bite you.

- I'm sorry, my name is Zippo Stenosaurus.

It's an absolute pleasure
to meet you, sir.

- Oh, it's very nice to meet
you too, Mr Stenosaurus.

- Oh, Zippo, please.

- You have no idea what
pleasure it gives me

to meet the father of
these two fine young men.

I always believed in these
boys, didn't I Rosemary?

- Yes, you definitely did, dear.

- We all owe a huge debt of gratitude

to these fine young men.

David Scott, you ride the Skybax with

the same courage and grace
as the great Gideon Altaire.

And you Karl Scott will be reinstated as

the Chasmasours' legal guardian.

Oh. (laughs)

Never again must be rest on our laurels

as we sacrifice progress to tradition.

You have brought a new
vision to Dinotopia.

(squealing)

- Thank you, Lord Mayor.

Dad?

David, you were right.

The gateway to the World
Beneath is open again.

We found the light.

(cheering)

(bright music)
