Here Comes the Grump (1969–1970): Season 1, Episode 11 - A Mess for King Midix - full transcript

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.

Terry and princess Dawn have found
the Land of a Thousand Caves.

They'll never find it if the
villainous Grump can stop them,

because that's where he has
hidden the Crystal Key.

The key with the power to free her
kingdom from his curse of gloom.

Watch this, dragon.

They won't know
what hit them.

- What was that?
- Search me.

But I smell the Grump.

That's just the same, of course.

Oh-oh! The balloon.
It sprung a leak.



Oh, dear. We can't land here.
Especially if the Grump is about.

We'll get as far as we can.

Golly!
Look!

That palace!
Those golden flashes.

Are they signals?

Friendly signals, I hope.

Is that's where I'm heading.

Oh, they're heading for
that glittery palace.

Boy! We just made it.

Oh, what a beautiful palace.

It reminds me of my own
lovely palace at home.

Look, over there.

Ah, yes, pretty pretty.

But you would look so
much nicer, little Rosie.



When you are turning to gold.

There!
Lovely, lovely.

So goldy.

My gosh! Did you see
that, princess Dawn?

And all those.

Wow!

It is indeed the golden touch.

But is it actually real pure gold?

My royal chemist says
it could be really.

Watch.

Oh, allow me to introduce
myself. I am king Midix.

King Midas?
Midix?

- Yeah, that figures.
- Figures, figures.

That is what my friend
Terry calls us saying.

He's a visitor,
not of our world.

- I am princess Dawn.
- What can I give you, princess Dawn.

Nothing, your majesty.
Unless...

Oh please could you tell us where we might
find the cave the Whispering Orchids?

We're pretty sure that's where
the fabulous Crystal Key is hidden.

Crystal Key?

Wouldn't a fabulous golden
key be just as nice.

There! You're welcome
to any of these.

No. Only the Crystal Key will lift
the curse of gloom from my land.

That, that's stuff it
actually turns into gold.

Talk about getting instant rich.

Keep down, dummy.

This is my big chance providing you
just you like do you're told, understand?

We better patch this
leak in our balloon.

Leave me turn it into gold.

- Then it wouldn't leak.
- Neither fly either.

- Thanks, anyway.
- Hurry, Terry I can't help feel...

The Grump!
Look out!

Oh, no!

I got it!
I got it!

Now it's mine.
Mine!

Guards!
Guards!

Cease the, guards!

Stay back,
you bouncing dummies.

Hum, not bad they'll
make a nice lend.

I'm gonna be as rich!
As a skillionaire!

No! No!

Raise them, men!
Raise them, men!

Ready, aim, fire!

Quick, princess maybe, I can
get the balloon inflated now.

Oh, no, you don't!

I'm going to turn you both into
gold statues for my mental piece.

So you better give me
a real pretty smile.

Because it's going to have
to last a long long time.

Yeah. It's the end of the
trail for both you, this time.

Just one squirt and
you turned into gold.

Hey, Grump. I command you to give
me back my gold making formula.

If you don't, I'll call
my wife, the queen.

A!h Shut up, blabbermouth.

Hey!
What? where?

Hold it! You come
back here, princess Dawn.

I warn you! Gold that's
what you're gonna be.

And I'll laugh all
the way to the bank.

Now!

This way, Bip.
Come on.

You're not getting
away from me.

Duck, princess.
Get down out of sight.

We've got to sneak
back to the balloon.

Hold it right where you are.

This is too easy.

Quick! Climb the spine to
that window up there.

A perfect shot.

This is it, junior.

Get off of me,
your golden dandelion.

Oh, hello!

I do hope you come to tell me
what is happening out there.

My husband, uh, the king.
He looks so, so golden.

Please ma'am, your highness.

Right now the best thing the
rest of you can do is hide.

The Grump may get in here
with that gold maker.

Here's a window
that ain't shuttered.

I'll sneak in on
them quiet like.

Beat it!
You nose Snnopy.

His nose, gold.
Grump is in the palace.

It's our chance, Terry.
Quick we can get to the balloon.

Yeah! Come on!

Oh, those smarty alex.
Trying to sneak away so noisy.

We're going to make it.
Now!

You're not getting away!
Dragon!

Where are you?
Oh, there you are.

Terry, the Grump, he's coming.
Oh! Can't you go faster?

I wish I could. If he gets close enough
to turn even just the balloon to gold.

We'll fall like a ton of bricks.

Right up, dragon.
Here's where we score.

Big gold bullseye.

Terry, Terry! He's going to do it.
He's going to turn us into gold.

You said it, princess.
And I'm doing it right now.

Oh no. I don't want to be
anybody's gold pile.

The gold is only temporary.

It's only temporary.

It's true, Terry.
Look at Bip's nose.

Hey, great.

Only temporary.
We're all as good as ever.

Except that nasty
Grump, I hope.

Keep your hands on this,
your majesty.

And he won't be able to
give you any more trouble.

Hey, Midix!
I have it!

A new formula that will
make a permanent gold.

Oh no, royal chemist!
Destroy it. I don't want it.

I learned my lesson
from the Grump.

No more gold making for me.
I don't want to be like him no, sir.

Goodbye!

- Bye!
- Good luck!

Thank you for the funny fountain.
We'll enjoy it.

And I'll make sure the
Grump stays this way until

you find the cave of
the Whispering Orchids.

Or I run out of...

What it takes!

Thank you. It's the way we'd
like to remember the Grump.

At least this way he
has a heart of gold.
