Jackie Chan Adventures (2000–2005): Season 2, Episode 8 - The Curse of El Chupacabra - full transcript

While exploring some Pyramids in Mexico, Jackie gets a call from El Toro. He needs Jackie's help dealing with the legendary El Chupacabra.

Roberta, why are you up?
It's not even morning.

The goats...
They're afraid, mama.

Maybe it's the...

(Whispering) Chupacabra.

(Laughs) Oh, little one,
there is no chupacabra.

It's just a story we tell

so that small children
will stay inside at night.

Like they have been told to?

But the goats?

They will be fine.

(Growling)



(Banging)

(Growling)

(Gasps)

(Howling)

The chupacabra is real!

(Baaa)

Jackie: Incredible!

Incredibly boring.

What kind of lame
pyramid is this?

No mummy curses, no booby traps,

no bonus points?

Oh, this is not a video
game, Jade.

This is important research.

(Growls)



I have had enough
work for one day.

It is quitting time. Bye-bye.

Faster! Go faster!

I am not a horse!

Faster! Go faster!

(Cell phone rings)

Hello?

Senor Jackie, it is I, El toro.

I have unfortunate news.

An ancient evil
plagues my people.

It is the goat-eater...

The chupacabra.

Chupacabra?
But that is just a fairy tale!

No... It is a real evil

from which grown men hide
like frightened children

and no goat is safe.

Uhh, Jackie?

Uh, El toro,
I am a little busy right now.

May I call you back?

El toro: Of course.

But the sun will soon set

and I need your help, my friend.

I know of ancient tablets

which tell the legend
of the chupacabra.

They may reveal a method
to rid us of the beast.

I need you to translate.

Jackie: As long as
nothing chases me!

Aah! Aah!

We'll be there, El toro.

Jade: You know,
you should really get voice mail.

Hola!

Eww. You didn't tell
me paco would be here.

It is good to see you,
too, seorita Jade.

(Kiss)

Come, Jackie. We must prepare
to battle the chupacabra.

Wait, wait, wait!

You said you only needed me

to translate ancient tablets.

There is no time.
The beast attacks by dark of night.

This rocks, paco!

Jackie's gonna kick butt on
the chalupa-cabra thingy.

No. El toro will
destroy the beast.

No. Jackie.

The mouse man?

Jackie is not a mouse man!

Is too. Is not.

Is not. Is too.

Is too. Is not.

Mother: It is just
as we told El toro!

The chupacabra
attacked our house!

And exactly what did
the creature look like?

It was giant...

With glowing red eyes!

Fur! Fangs! Oh! Claws, too!

And it howled like this...
"arroooo!"

Yep, sounds like a
Chimichanga to me.

Now do you believe?

I believe that we are
talking about a coyote.

What?

Aah! That is not a coyote!

(Roars)

Everybody inside! Bolt the door!

Hello, Mr. chupacabra.

You look like you're
having a very bad night.

Do you have a
splinter in your paw?

Perhaps we can help.

(Snarling)

Waah!

Stay beside me, Jade.
I will keep you safe.

(Growling)

Sorry! No solicitors!

(Growling)

Is there another way out?

No!

It's after the goat!
Let's just give it to...

Don't even finish that sentence.

Yaah!

Jackie: You do not want to eat me!
I am not a goat!

(El toro groans)

(Snarls)

Fear not! The beast is no
match for El toro, the bull!

And El Jackie,
the, uh, the chan!

Hyah! Hyah!

(Growls)

Jackie: Huh!

Ow!

That's one point for Jackie.

No.
That's one point for El toro.

Jackie made contact first.

Did not. Did too.

Did too! Did not!

(Growls)

Never touch the mask!

Unh!

(Both grunting)

You all right?

I am fine.
A scratch here or there.

Mother: El toro,
you have saved us all!

You destroyed the chupacabra!

It was not me, paco.

It appears that
sunlight is the Victor.

That's one point for sunlight.

It does not matter.

El toro is the greatest
hero in the world!

Jackie is. Is not.

Is too. Is not.

Is not. Is too.

Children, please.
We must celebrate!

(Music playing)

(Laughing and talking)

The goats are afraid...

As if the chupacabra is near.

Oh, that is crazy talk.

Perhaps not, my friend.

Do not let the children know.

The beast wounded me...

But it is a small injury

to which I would
normally give no notice.

I fear that I have been tainted
by the creature's evil...

Infected by its
ancient malevolence.

Take me to the tablets you
needed me to translate.

The beast hunts by
night, hides by day...

It feeds on livestock
and goats...

Sunlight will destroy the beast.

Ahh, my friend,
I fear you must translate more quickly.

I feel like I am missing
something obvious.

Oh, wait! Here it is!

(Growling)

"Beware of the
chupacabra's claw...

"The evil can be transferred
from beast to man

and the man will
become the beast!"

Bad news... aah!

(Roaring)

Ohh!

Run! Run! Run!

The chupacabra is loose!

Nice costume. We go together.

(Roars)

(Screaming)

Aah!

Aah!

Huh? I thought the candelabra
thingy was history.

Hey! I recognize that mask!

Yoo-hoo! Yummy goat right here!

(Roars)

I did not mean to touch your mask.
Sorry.

Jade: That's one
point for Jackie...

For whatever you just did.

Jackie's so fast,

sometimes the eye
can't catch it.

Where's El toro?

Paco, that was El toro.

It's the curse of
the chupacabra.

El toro is no longer the bull.

He is... El toro'cabra.

Noooo!

Don't worry.
I already called for help.

The flight was delayed,
the food was terrible,

the movie had no plot,
and I had turbulence!

Can you cure El toro?

Do not rush the chi!

(Exhales)

I have all but one ingredient.

A powder made from capsicum.

I have never heard of capsicum.

It can break the
chupacabra curse?

No! It is only one ingredient!

Does no one listen to me?

One more thing!

To find the best capsicum,
we must visit the wise elder

atop El picacho del diablo...

The mountain of the devil!

Can you move any more slowly?

Why do I have to
carry everything?

You want the children
to break their backs?

And my hands hold the map!

I would feel a lot better

if that map were right side up.

Look, uncle knows what's what.

We'll be fine. Don't worry.

My worry is only for the world's
greatest hero... El toro!

Because his fate is in the
hands of a puny mouse man.

Jackie is not a mouse man!

Is too.

(Gasps)

(Roaring)

Jackie: Go! Go! Go!

Paco: El toro!

It's me! Paco!

I do not want to hurt you!

El toro...
I mean, Mr. El toro'cabra,

we do not have any goats.
Why are you attacking us?

Jackie: Oh! The mask!

Paco, drop the mask and run!

No! I will never abandon the
mask of El toro fuertes! Aah!

Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah!

Throw him this!

You are not an animal!
You are the bull!

(Growling)

Oh, ok, bull is an animal,

but it is only a nickname! Oh!

Ok, that's one point for Jackie,

but I don't like
this game anymore.

It will be "game
over" in a minute.

I cannot let that happen.

El toro, this way!
It's me, paco!

Don't you remember?
I am your greatest fan!

Let me help you!

No, paco! Don't!

(Howls)

Sorry again,

but we had to get you
out of the sunlight.

Jackie, my friend,
you have succeeded!

You have lifted the
curse of the chupacabra.

I am El toro again! Thank you!

Uh...

El toro!

I saved your mask.

I do not understand.

We didn't do anything
to lift the curse.

Aah! The sun!

I... I am still cursed.

That explains why the
chupacabra only hunts at night.

Take it.
I do not deserve to wear it.

I am still the goat-eater.

Stop whining!

We just need to
find some capsicum!

But you said it is on
top of the mountain!

We'll never make it there
and back by nightfall.

And by then...

By then I will have become
the beast once more.

Uh, excuse me, elder...

Can you tell us where we
might find some capsicum?

We need capsicum
for an antidote.

I do not give out my
capsicum to just anybody.

Go away.

But my friend has been
turned into an chupacabra!

(Gasps) Chupacabra!

Here. All the capsicum
you could want.

(Grunting) No! Must fight!

To remain human!

Aah... arooo!

El toro, we have the... aah!

(Snarling)

El toro!

Paco: No!

(Roars)

Always make a backup.
Make sure he drinks it all!

(Roars)

Ohh!

Skael!

(Gagging)

The magic is not working!

Maybe I should have put
in more wood spurge.

Ol'! The bull is back!

El toro! Your mask!

Thank you.

I knew you would keep it safe.

One more thing!

El toro, do not go
swimming for half an hour.

Now, let me go home!

Jackie's back to
mucho bonus points.

Admit it, paco.
He's the greatest.

No way! El toro gets
mucho mega bonus points

for living through
the chupacabra curse.

Your mouse man is
the second greatest.

No, he's not.

Yes, he is!

No! - Yes! - No! - Yes!

Man: Hey, Jackie!
Who's your role model?

When I was young, of
course, some of my teachers,

I just think they're great.

But later on,
when I'm growing up,

when I'm making a movie,

then I find out my role model...

Charlie chaplin, Harold
Lloyd, buster Keaton.

How difficult that
they made a movie.

Because in that day,

silent movie without
all the special effect,

without all the protection,

they still do a great stunt.
That's my goal.

One day, I want to be them.

Anybody better than me,
that's my role model.
