Here Comes the Grump (1969–1970): Season 1, Episode 25 - A Hitch in Time - full transcript

The villain Grump is still pursuing princess
Dawn and her companion Terry.

He is trying to stop them from reaching the
Cave of Orchids where he has hidden the

Crystal Key that will free her
kingdom from his curse of gloom.

Hang on! Looks like we're
going to make it.

Ah! We got them now, dragon.

Whoa!

Open up, your doggone
mountain, or I'll blast you.

Be cover, stupid.

Oh, no, you don't, you
lunk head. Up a mountain.

Oh, wise guy, eh?

I'll get you, blasted
hunk of rock.



Oh no, they're escaping!

Don't think you can escape
from Grump in that old gasbag.

I'll get you yet.

Oh, well what do you know?
These mountains are like humans.

Yes, it's amazing.
We should appreciate their help.

See Terry, how do you
thank a mountain?

Just say thank you.
I guess.

Of course.
Thank you, Mr. Mountain.

You know what to do.
Fly up there and rip the balloon.

Okay now, here they come.
Go get him!

Let me go. You dang dangled
glurb of a bird.

You dumb blundering
junk of a falcon.

Don't just stand there.
Get the balloon!

Hang on!
We're falling!



Ah! That will hold
them fo awhile.

Dragon, come and get me!

Well, it looks like we're
out of transportation.

And Grump is not letting up.

I think I hear him now.
Terry.

Quick, follow me.

They won't scape
this time, dragon.

They're getting closer.
We will hide in here.

Come on, dragon.
Trail them.

Use you nose for something
besides sneeze.

Uh, that was close.

Shh, they're not out
of the wood yet.

Shh, dragon!
It must be them.

Keep cover!

A-ha!

All abord. Jellybean Junction,

Poppa Gamban,
Rockville and Tick Tock city.

Golly! What luck.
There's a bus stop near by.

It's our chance to
get out of this mess.

We better hurry.

Where's the driver?

He must be around
here someplace.

Right here,
at your service.

Oh gosh!
A building bus driver.

- That's new to me.
- Me too.

We're on our way to find the
Cave of the Whispering Orchids.

- What's the fair?
- Fair there is no fair.

I've never heard of that place.

So hop on if you want a ride.

Gee, thanks, Mr. Bus.

I guess you'd call a bus mister.

A-ha!
So there you are.

Hey, come back here.

Why, you dumb bangling bus.

Why do you look
where you going?

Well, make up your mind.

Faster please, faster.

Grump hasn't given up yet.

Yeah, I show him some speed.

Faster, Hustle bus.

And that's what you
get for tailgating.

Well, I got that smart kid.

If I get my
hands on him, I'll...

Of all the dang blasted luck,

Maybe it's because
I don't live right.

Next stop, Tic-Tock city.

We'll check out our
destination at the next stop.

Let's hope someone
can show us the way.

None of trace of that dang bangle
bunny legged fumble bus.

But they can't be too far off.

"Welcome Into Time"
I wonder what that means.

End of line.

Well, what'll would know.
Made on time.

- Gee, that was a swell ride.
- Thanks so much, Mr. hustle bus.

My pleasure, my dear.
Well, I must be going.

Time is of the essence,
you know?

Goodbye!

Wow! Look at all the clocks.

Well, greetings my friends.

If you want the time you certainly
come to the right place.

I'm Big Ben and I govern
all time in Tick Tock city.

Thank you, sir. I'm Terry, this is
princess Dawn and this is our pet, Bip.

We have the time, sir.

Ah, that is,
we don't need the time.

Well, then since you're passing the time,
you must have time on your hands.

We don't have much time.

But, my boy, when you're in Tick Tock City,
you've got all the time in the world.

Now, what can I do for you?

We are on our way to find the
Cave of Whispering Orchids.

What direction should we go?

Trust Big Ben to
show you the way.

When sun's rays cast
its shadows to the east.

- Follow the road which.
- Look, it's the Grump!

We found them, dragon.

Now I'll wait until they
come back then I'll grab them.

Darn that Grump. Big Ben didn't
even finish giving us directions.

The only thing we can do
is go back and try again.

Come on, follow me.

Here they comes.

Ah! Cut it out!
Take it easy!

Oh-oh! That means Grump
will be back chasing us.

My, My!
But you look all rundown.

What is all this?
What's going on?

- Oh it's the Grump.
- He's got it in for us.

Oh my goodness!
I do believe you're in for more.

Here he comes.

There they are, dragon.
After them!

What's happened?
Everything is still.

Princess? Bip?
What's wrong?

Why don't you move?

I wonder way I continue to move.

I almost forgot.
I'm from another world.

Which means I'm governed
by a different time.

It looks as if I'm the
only one left to fix

Big Ben and restore
time in Tick-Tock city.

It looks as if this important
gear has been jarred loose.

I better replace it.

Oh, well now, I say.
It's about time.

What a relief to be ticking again.

I'll do something about it.
I'm running fast.

What I do?

Adjust my regulator!

You're in reverse!
You're in reverse!

That's fine.
Now leave it alone.

Look, Terry.
It's the Grump again.

He's after Bip.
Run, Bip, run!

Let me out, you ding-a-lings!

You're in jail.
And now you serve time.

And as for you my friends,

I'll lose no time in directing
you toward your destination.

Take the East Road which leads beyond
the purple hills into the Lost Valley.

And that is if you don't get lost.

I'm sure you'll
find the answer.

Goodbye, Big Ben, and thank,
you may you always rule on time.

All aboard!

Take us back to
our ballonn, Mr. Bus.

Yes, and time we'll
take care of Mr. Grump.

Shampoo of snow-white city.
