Madagascar: A Little Wild (2020–…): Season 2, Episode 4 - Hedgehog Sitters Club - full transcript

Alex, Marty, Melman, and Gloria babysit hedgehogs who wreak havoc in the habitat.

Places!

- Perfect! Now
everybody say "banana"!

- How's it going, Carlos?

- Ugh! I think my
new camera's broken.

I can't get a single good
shot of these two. Oh, oh!

Now don't move.

- I don't think the
camera is the problem.

Pickles! Dave!

Get back here, come
on. Guys, guys!

Okay, you two, that's
enough monkey business!

- Someone needs to tell Carlos
that's not monkey business.



It's chimpanzee business.

C'mon, you two!

- I could watch this all day!

Get ready!

- Do you like this one? Yee!

Or this one? Ooh!

Or this one?

- I like the first one.

And the second one.

And the third one!

- I love that zoo picture
day comes once a year,

so I can see how much I've grown. I
bet I have ten new stripes! Huh? Oh!

- And I'll bet
I'm this tall now!

- And I lost another baby
tusk since last year!



- I've been waiting all year for this.
Finally, my chance to bounce back

from that awful picture
they took of me last year.

- What did it look
like? I forget.

- Huh?
- It looked like this.

- Ugh!
- It's not so bad!

- It's humiliating.
- That was a real cat-astrophe.

- Marty!
- No, he's right.

That's exactly what I
looked like. A cat-astrophe.

- Don't worry, Alex.

Carlos will be taking
pictures all day tomorrow.

You'll get a good shot at a...

good shot.

- Huh! I'm going to groom,
smooth, fluff, shine...

- Hey! Looks like Kate
brought dumplings!

- Woohoo! Wait. Why do those
dumplings have prickles?

- I prefer dumplings
that don't blink at me!

- Hmm.

- Hey, Kate, why are
those mice so spikey?

- These are baby hedgehogs. We're
fixing up their regular enclosure,

so they'll be staying in
the habitat until tomorrow.

- They're so cute.

Are the bigger animals
going to baby-sit them?

- I'd sure love to see them try!

- Yeah!

- Actually, these baby hedgies
would be quite a handful

for our friends here,

but they'll be safe and
sound in their terrarium.

Come on,
Jakey, it's time to go.

Buh-bye!

- Hear that? We're
baby-sitters!

You might not be dumplings,
but I still wanna eat. You. Up.

- Babysitting? That sounds like a big
job. I don't know if I'm ready for this.

- Don't worry, Melman.

If we all take turns, we
can handle it. Right, Alex?

- Huh? I guess. I have a lot
to do before picture day.

Gotta stretch my smile
muscles, practice my poses...

- Aw, look! They
really like you!

- Well, wouldn't want to let down my fans.
But can someone else take the first turn?

I've still got some
primping to do.

- I'll go first! Go on.

- I'm going to go
practice for my turn! Wee!

- Looks like it's just you
and me for now, little cuties!

Coochy, coochy-coo!

Aren't you playful.

Let's start getting you
ready for beddy-bye.

Uh...

Marty!

- Huh?
- It's your turn!

- What happened to your face?

- Turns out baby hedgehogs are
really really really playful.

Good luck tonight.

And don't let them
out of your sight!

- All right, playtime's
over, hedgies.

I've got a full day of
Lost and Found returns

to do tomorrow and I need some
rest, so I can be on my A-game.

Get it?

Good.

Uh!

Rise and shine,
Alex! It's your turn.

- I need more beauty sleep.

- You know what's worse than
not getting enough beauty sleep?

Not getting enough any sleep.

Turns out hedgehogs
are nocturnal!

- Noc-what-now?

They sleep during the day
and get more active at night.

When zebras like me should be...

Don't worry. If anyone can
keep them entertained, it's me.

Okay, it's show time!

Whoo!

- Ooh!

- Thank you, thank you,
you've been a great audience!

Okay, well, it's daytime and
you're nocturnal, so g'night!

You're not going to let me
get my beauty nap, are you?

Ugh!

Peek-a-boo!

No, not like that.

Peek-a-boo!

Hmm. Better.

- Hey, Melman!

- Uh! My babies!

Hi, Alex! I was just
practicing babysitting

using these pinecones.

- You're doing great. But
you know what they say:

"The best way to learn
is to jump right in."

So how about I share
my turn with you?

- What? My babies, again!
I-I can't. I'm not ready.

It'll be fine. All you have
to do is play games with them

and keep them entertained
in the terrarium.

- Will you stay with me?
- Of course! I'll lay right here.

If you see my eyes closed, it just
means I'm listening extra hard.

Peek-a-boo!

Peek-a-boo!

Peekaboo!

- I have an idea for a new,
quieter game: Hide and Seek!

- Alex, are you sure it's okay
to let them out of the terrarium?

- It'll be fine. And
it won't be for long.

I just need a little quiet, so
I can finish up my beauty sleep.

Hedgies, go find someplace
to hide. And remember...

Hush!

- Hush!

- Now, Melman, cover your
eyes and count to a thousand.

- One! Two! Three!

- Silently! In your head.

Four, five, six.

Alex, wake up!

- Hey, Melman, what's up?

- It turns out the hedgies are
really good at Hide and Seek.

I still haven't found them
and I've looked everywhere!

- We'll find them. How
far could they get?

- Come out, come out,
wherever you are!

Any hedgies in there?

Hello?

- Huh?

Hmm...

- Pickles! Dave!
- Ya! Whattaya need?

- Have you seen three baby hedgehogs?
They look like sharp hamsters.

- Or puffer fish, with legs!
- Or tennis balls covered with thumbtacks!

Haven't seen 'em.
Have you checked in your cave?

Or the waterslide? Or...

- Whoa-oh!

- Come on, hedgies. Game's
over! No more Hide and Seek!

Oh, no! The hedgies!
What are we gonna do?

- Huh? What happened? Am I still dreaming?
- Where are the hedgies?

- They escaped through the tunnel
and they're headed to the city!

- Uh!
- What? How did this happen?

- Uh, that's not
important right now.

We have to go find them and get
back in time for picture day!

- I'll go. I'm the best lost
-and-finder this city has ever seen.

Oh, no! Today's the day I'm
supposed to clear out the Lost...

- Ugh! You two, go
find the hedgies.

I'll stay here with Sleepy and
help with the Lost and Found.

- Pickles, Dave, we
gotta use the tunnels!

- Here, you can
chimp-sit my babies! Huh!

- Huh?

Hmm...

We gotta find the hedgies and get home
by sundown so Carlos can take my picture.

- There they go!
- Uh!

- We were supposed to be baby
-sitting, not baby-losing!

- Shouldn't they be getting tired
soon? They were up all night.

- Uh!

- The hedgies ran into that party.
How are we going to blend in?

- Look, party favors! Follow me.

- Alex, look!

- I know, this hat does look sharp.
It'll look great for picture day!

- No, I mean, look over
there! It's the hedgies!

- It's okay, Melman.
It's a cupcake.

- Uff!

Oh, there they are.

- Melman, those are bean-bags.

Look, he's
juggling hedgehogs!

Wait, no one juggles hedgehogs!

- Yeah!
- Wow!

- Melman, you're right this
time! Those are the hedgehogs!

- Ah!

- Huh?

Uh? Whoo!

- Ooh!

- Huh?
- What's happening to their eyes?

- I think it's a...

sugar rush!

- No! Come back!

- My hat! I can't get it
wet before picture day!

Melman, swim after them!

- Okay, Alex!

I just remembered. I
don't know how to swim.

- Where's Gloria
when we need her?

- That's a whole lotta
lost to be found.

- And that's why it's so important
that I stay sharp and alert,

so I can return each
item to its rightful...

- Uh, Marty?
- Owner!

- You still seem pretty tired.
I can help out if you want.

- Thanks, but I've got this.

- Where is my necklace?

- Psst! Marty. I
think you got one.

- I thought I left
it right here.

- And another one! Hmm...

How can he know where
every single thing goes?

I'm just gonna have to
rely on my hippo-intuition.

Hmm...

Hmm.

Hey, Mrs. Vander-Rich,
here's your fancy necklace!

And, Carmen, your
lost jump rope!

- Huh?
- Oh!

- Oops!
- Ah!

I just had a nightmare
that it was total chaos

in the Lost and Found! Huh?

- There, there! It
was just a dream.

- Okay.

- I gotta fix this!

- Ooh, very stylish.

- Or maybe I don't!

- What do we do now?

- Excusez-moi, uh! You
gonna eat that cotton candy?

- Ant'ney! What
are you doing here?

- Oh, heya, kids. I go to all
the finest outdoor parties.

Their guests drop
the best appetizers!

- We need your help
catching the hedgehogs!

- Ooh! Look at those
baby hedgehogs on a boat!

Someone should be keeping a
better eye on those three.

- Ant'ney!

- Lemme guess. That's
what you need help with.

I'm on it!

Woohoo!

Okay, kids, playtime's over,
let's get you back to dry land.

Argh! It's the perfect storm!

- Are you okay, Ant'ney?
- I'm fine!

But sailing is not as calming
as I thought it would be.

- Uh!

The hedgies!

Ant'ney! Follow those balloons!

- On it! I'll get those cute
little pincushions for you.

Wow!

- Wee!

- Ooh! Where'd my hat go?

- Hmm...

- Where's my hat? It's
gotta be here somewhere.

- This time I'm not
leaving anything to chance.

Marty, whose hats are these?

I think this one's his,
and that one's hers.

- You got it, Gloria.
- Okay!

- Hmm. Ooh!

- Huh, that doesn't seem right.
- And I like to dance with sandwiches.

- Really, what kind? Wait,
what are you talking about?

- Huh? Where am I?

Hmm.

Oh, no! What did you do?

- I gave the big hut to her,
and the little one to him,

like you told me to.

- I was sleep-talking.
I do that sometimes!

- You sleep with your eyes
open? I do that sometimes, too!

- Oh, no, this is terrible.
I'm getting everything wrong.

- Uh!
- Oh! You seem to have found my hat.

Thank you.

- Well, of course.
- Want to get a coffee?

- I'd love that!

- Or am I getting everything
right? What do you say, Marty?

- You got it, Gloria.

- I need to stop over-thinking
this, I clearly have a gift!

- Huh?

- Huh?

- Well, you can't win 'em all.

Whoa!

Lamppost!

On it!

Ow! Woohoo! Oh!

- Ant'ney, can you pop the balloons
one by one so they drift down?

- I gotchu!

Ant'ney's babysitting and
balloon popping service,

coming right up!

- Alex, they're coming
straight to you!

- Got 'em! Oh, no,
my picture day hat!

Melman, don't let them get
away, I'll be right back!

- Okay, I'll try!

Huh?

- Yes! Melman, catch them!

- That tickles!

I can't!

- Where did they go?

- Hey, kids! Your sharp little
friends are headed east!

Where? I don't see them.

- They're fast.
I lost 'em too.

- This is all my fault!
If I wasn't so ticklish,

or if I was better at Hide and Seek,
none of this would have happened.

- No, Melman. It's my fault.

I never should have let
them out of the terrarium.

But I was so focused on getting
a good picture for picture day.

All I was thinking about was me.

- Ooh, by the stairs! I think
they're headed for the subway.

- Nobody's going anywhere. Not
while this babysitter's in charge.

Uh! Gotcha!

- Awesome!

- Oh-oh.

- Oh, no, your hat! You
need it for your picture.

- Yeah, but I need to take
care of these hedgies more.

Besides, picture day is over
for me. I look like a disaster.

- No, you don't, Alex. You
look like a babysitter.

- Murray, I can't believe my eyes!
- Huh?

- That's the best
haircut you've ever had!

- Thank you, Millie.
I feel like a new man.

- Alex, there's a salon!

They could fix you right
up for your picture!

- That's a great idea. Uh!

But I really shouldn't
let them out of my sight.

Let's get these
babies back home.

- What about picture day?

- I guess I'll just have to be
the cat-astrophe for another year.

- Thanks, Ant'ney.

Anytime.
I better fly.

I heard there is a party
uptown with a churro bar! Uh!

That's a wrap on picture day!

Even snapped a shot of the chimps,
when they didn’t know I was looking.

- And you got all our animal friends?
- I got every single animal in sight!

Unless there's some
secret passageway

in and out of the zoo
that we don't know about.

- What a disaster that would be.

- Well, I feel rested! Oh,
no, the Lost and Found!

Hey, you cleared it! Did all the
items end up where they belong?

- They sure did!

- Wait a minute.

I know those sunglasses.

They belong to...

- My sunglasses!

- Hmm, on second thought, they
look better on him anyway.

- What!

- What can I say?
I've got the touch.

- Alex! Melman!

- Where are the hedgies?

Great job, babysitting
team! Well, sort of.

At least they're home now.

Alex, Carlos hasn't left yet,
you can still get your picture.

- Thanks, but I'm not
feeling very camera ready.

I think I'll pass.

- I have an idea. You had a
lot of fun with Alex today.

Do you want to help us
do something fun for him?

- Huh?

- Whoo!

Thanks, pals. And
thank you too, hedgies.

- The hedgies are
finally getting sleepy.

- Aw...

I'm tired, too.

- That's strange.
Where are the hed...

Now that's something
you don't see every day.

Hey, Carlos, you might want to
come take a picture of this.

- Ooh! What a great shot.

One,

two, three!

- Look at that, Alex, you're
not the cat-astrophe anymore.

You're the cover cat!

- I'm sorry it didn't look
like you hoped it would.

Do you want me to hide this at the
bottom of the Lost and Found box?

- Uh, nah, that's okay,
Melman. I kinda like it.

And they sure
seem to like you.

Ooh, we should form a
hedgehog sitters club?

We could babysit them every day!
