Madagascar: A Little Wild (2020–…): Season 6, Episode 1 - Lost and Pound - full transcript

‐ Places!

‐ Everybody! Come, quick!

‐ Did I miss my fans?

‐ Did I miss the garbage truck?

‐ It's Unclaimed Item Day!

‐ Ooh, is this another
festive New York holiday?

‐ Better!

It's the day Marty
lets us keep stuff

from Lost and Found that hasn't
been claimed for a month!

‐ Call me when it's July Fourth.

Fireworks over the
Hudson are more my speed.



‐ Now, there's a lot of
very random stuff in here,

which means…

‐ Dress up party!

‐ Dibs on the wig!

Aha!

I can work with this.

‐ Marty, big lost
and found news!

‐ You're telling
me. Check it out.

‐ Where did you last see it? ‐ I
must've dropped it here somewhere.

I never leave port without
my lucky sailor's knot,

and we set sail tonight.

‐ Oh, no. I'll keep
an eye out for it.

‐ Looks like we've
got a new mission.

‐ "A mission, you say?



I shall help my royal
subjects save the day!"

Lucky thing, I found this.

‐ You found the
sailor's lucky knot!

‐ You mean my lucky wig‐holder.

‐ Alex, I'm gonna need that.

‐ Then you're gonna have to
fight the lion fairy king for it!

‐ Give that back!

‐ You give it back!

‐ You're the one who has it!

‐ This holiday's got more
fireworks than I thought!

Give me that wig.

‐ Alex, that's not
just any piece of rope.

‐ I know! It's the perfect
dress‐up accessory!

We've been over this.

‐ It belongs to a
sailor who needs it.

And he leaves on a ship tonight.

‐ You know what they say,

"You do what you gotta do
and you don't boo hoo."

‐ Who says that?

‐ You know…

they.

‐ Oh, right. "They."

‐ That lucky sailor's knot
is very important to someone.

‐ Yeah! To me!

‐ You know how it is
with the lost and found.

You can't get too attached.

‐ But if we give it back, how am I
supposed to keep my wig attached?

I'm not ready to
say goodbye to it.

‐ We'll find you a new rope
to hold your wig in place.

‐ It'll probably just
fall off, anyway.

‐ "You do what you gotta'
do, and you don't‐‐"

‐ "Boo hoo."

‐ Pickles, Dave,
we gotta get to‐‐

Uh, what's happening here?

‐ This is my banana
line‐in‐the‐sand.

Dave's been very
argumentative lately,

and I no longer wanna
share the tree with him.

‐ Yeah, my side is bigger
because I made it that way.

‐ Hate to interrupt, but we gotta
get to the Cruise Terminal, pronto!

‐ Can't you see we're arguing?
No tunnel passage today.

‐ Bye! ‐ Thanks!

‐ No fair, Dave!

Just because the tunnel
controls are on your side‐‐

‐ Ugh, I'm not listening to you!

‐ It's the sailor! Over there!

‐ Ow.

‐ He's about to board.

‐ Looks like we're too late.

Guess I'll just have to take that
sailor's knot home for my wig.

‐ Not on my watch.

As protector of the Lost and Found,
it's my duty to return this rope.

‐ Huh?

My lucky knot!

You must be even
luckier than I thought!

‐ Wow! ‐ Amazing!

‐ Couldn't done it
without you all.

Especially you, buddy. Now,
doesn't that feel good?

‐ It was pretty awesome
of me, huh? Thanks, Marty.

Couldn't have done it
without you either.

‐ What? What was that?

‐ Sounded like…

‐ A wittle puppy!

‐ So cute!

‐ You know how cats mix with
dogs, but even I gotta admit, aww!

‐ Hey there, where'd
you come from?

‐ Oh, he's just a baby,
he doesn't talk yet!

‐ Who could he belong to?

There's no one in sight,
he doesn't have a collar,

which means…

we've got another mission:
to find where he belongs.

‐ Oh, my goodness, so cute!

‐ Aww, so cute!

‐ Aww.

‐ Okay, stop!

‐ Sorry. It's not our
fault he's such a cutie!

‐ Wootie.

‐ Patootie.

‐ This may seem like
an adorable puppy

but what this actually is,
is a Lost and Found item.

‐ He's not an item,
he's a new friend!

‐ Whatever you call
him, he's lost.

And you know what that means.

‐ Do we have to give him back?

‐ We do what we
gotta do, remember?

Let's split up and search.

His family's gotta be
around here somewhere.

‐ But, it's almost dark.

Kate's gonna expect us back
for tuck‐in any minute!

‐ We can't abandon our duty. No lost
item goes unreturned on my watch!

‐ And no bath goes
un‐Melman'ed on mine.

We gotta get home!

‐ Okay.

We'll sneak him into
the habitat tonight

and return here in the
morning to find his family.

‐ We get to take him home?

‐ Ooh! We can dress him
for our dress up party!

‐ This is strictly business.

‐ Great idea, Marty.

We could dress him
up as a businessman!

‐ No, Melman. We've
got a job to do!

And we're gonna get it done.

Aww.

‐ So…

‐ Is that a go on the
puppy‐sized briefcase?

‐ No.

Whew, that took forever!

‐ The way Wesley ran circles
around those tunnels,

it's a miracle we got him
all the way here at all.

‐ I'm sorry… Wesley?
You named the pup?

He's a Lost and
Found item, remember?

‐ But he's also a Wesley!
Aren't you, Wesley?

‐ You name things,
you get attached.

That's why no one gets
attached to pencils.

'Cuz no one ever names them!

‐ I do.

And you're right, I miss
Pointy McPointerstein so!

‐ Settle down, Dog. That's your
name till we find where you belong,

but if you keep barking like
that, Kate will find you here,

and we might never
get you back home.

‐ Wow, Marty, you're the only
one Wesley seems to listen to.

‐ That's because he sees me
as a strong authority figure.

Aww.

‐ Uh, gross.

Now, let's go! It's tuck‐in time. We
need to hide Dog before Kate sees.

Everyone on your toes, paws, and
hooves. This is gonna be tricky.

‐ Hurry, Marty.

‐ Huh?

Huh!

‐ We did it!

Great work, everyone.

Stop it.

We have a big day tomorrow,
so lie down and get to sleep.

This isn't playtime!

No, not here. Your
spot's over there.

Hmm.

Hmm.

‐ Marty, wake up. Big day today!

‐ Is it morning already?

I did not get much
sleep last night.

Thanks to Dog's tail in my face.

‐ Well, don't worry, we
made some lost dog fliers

to post by the docks.

‐ Impressive attention to
detail. Especially the blue eyes.

‐ I tried five different crayons

till I found just the
right shade of periwinkle.

‐ Wesley's eyes are so cute.

They would go great with that blue
cape I found for the dress‐up party.

‐ You are such a cutie
patootie, Wesley.

Yes, you are, yes, you are!

‐ While you three turn to mush,

I'm gonna go clear out
the‐‐ Lost and Found box?

Who could have done this?

‐ Uh… me! I totally did it.

‐ Yeah, me too!

‐ Well, I didn't do it.

‐ Dog, I am so
disappointed in you!

Uh…

that is, if I could be disappointed
in Lost and Found objects.

Which you won't be for long,
cause we're returning you today!

‐ Can't we just dress
him up once before we go?

‐ We've been over this. It's
the Lost and Finder's code.

We must do our best to return
every lost item, no exceptions.

Now, where's that dog?

‐ I don't know what that is,

but it broke our banana wall
and you're not going anywhere

till you fix it.

‐ If we can't even get
him under control here

how are we gonna keep control
of him through the tunnels

and in the city? He's
literally doing backflips.

‐ Ten out of ten!

‐ We can fix the banana
wall, and then go.

It'll be fine!

‐ No, you go on ahead
and post the fliers.

I'll help the chimps,

then work on getting
Dog under control,

at least enough to take him into
the city without blowing our cover.

‐ You wanna be the one
with him because he's cute.

‐ Trust me, there's
nothing cute about a dog

who destroys everyone's things.

Cut it out!

Okay, now sit.

Roll over.

Beg.

Okay, how about if I beg?

Please, sit or roll over or beg.

Anything!

Ugh, who am I kidding?

I have no idea how
to train a dog.

Hey! Wow!

Good boy! You did it.

Fetch!

Again?

Okay, just a couple more times
and then that's it, got it?

Fetch!

‐ Hmm, there's gotta be something
we can use to put these fliers up.

‐ What are you doing, Alex?

‐ Looking for gum.

Ugh!

‐ Hear that? ‐ Sounds
like it's this way.

Hey there, what's the matter?

‐ Do you need help?

‐ Maybe some gum will
make him feel better?

‐ Perhaps if it's the kind
that cures heartbreak.

‐ I think it's
spearmint, so maybe?

‐ Ach, better off not accepting
candy from a stranger anyway.

‐ We don't have to be strange!

I'm Melman and I'm afraid of
butterflies. What's your story?

‐ Name's Axel and up till two
days ago, life was perfect!

I was stowing away
on a cruise ship,

feasting on buffet leftovers
and living my best life

with my best friend.

‐ Sounds like you both
had a lot of fun together.

How did you meet?

‐ We met when he boarded
the ship in the Arctic.

A lot of animals there have
been looking for a new home

since the glaciers
started melting.

We do everything
together, my buddy and I.

At least we did till the boat docked
here and my pal ran off into the city.

Now, I fear I'll never see him
or his slobbery kisses again!

‐ Hmm, your friend, does he have
any distinguishing features?

‐ Well, he's got the big
floppy ears, the softest fur,

and his eyes are
as blue as the sea.

‐ Or maybe periwinkle?

‐ Again?

That was the
five‐hundredth turn.

And last time I said we'd
absolutely stop at five‐hundred.

No ifs, ands, or buts.

You're a good little
puppy, aren't you?

‐ Such a good puppy
deserves a yummy treat.

I know Kate keeps the treats
around here somewhere.

You stay right there.

What?

Oh, no. No, no, no.

No! No treats for you.

I knew it, I let my guard down and
started getting attached and now look!

You've made a mess
like a bad dog.

I'm sorry. You're not bad.

You're nice. And
sweet. And fun, Dog.

I mean… Wesley.

Quick! Kate's coming!

‐ What happened here?

‐ Huh, that was a close one!

It's a good thing we
got outta there in time

because who knows
what Kate would have‐‐

Ah! Ah!

‐ And who are you?

An Arctic wolf pup? You
belong in the Arctic.

‐ Wesley's an Arctic wolf?

‐ Well, this should
keep you cool for now,

but I'm gonna have to figure
out someplace cold enough

for you to stay long‐term.

I'll be back soon, okay?

‐ Wesley, I'm so sorry.

All this time I thought I had to
return you to your home in New York.

But now I know you're an Arctic wolf
pup, so I guess that means you're wild?

Which means you have no
one to be returned to!

And you know what that
means? You can stay here!

And I can teach you to
shake a paw, and play dead,

and walk on your hind legs even!

‐ Great news! ‐ We found
the lost puppy's family!

‐ Dog can finally go home!

‐ Yay?

‐ We found your
family, Mr. Snuggles!

‐ Mr. Snuggles? Who's that?

‐ That's what Axel named Wesley.

But don't worry, I assured him
that Wesley is definitely a Wesley.

‐ Axel? Who's that?

Wesley's
friend. He's a rat.

They live together on a ship.

‐ And you might wanna sit
down for this, Wesley is an‐‐

‐ An Arctic wolf pup.
Yeah, so I've heard.

‐ Which explains
why he's so wild.

But not why he's so adorable.

‐ Wait, hold up.

Are we sure about this
so‐called Axel's story?

I mean, Wesley hasn't said anything
to me about this Axel character.

‐ Wesley started talking?

They grow up so fast.

‐ As much as I wanna keep Wesley

and dress him up as a
mermaid wolf princess,

we said we'd return him
to where he belongs.

And he belongs with Axel.

‐ Uh, yeah, that's right.

And I would. Except he's…

uh, stuck in that kennel.

So, I guess he'll just
have to stay here.

‐ We gotta get going. Axel's
waiting for us at the docks.

We need to get Wesley back
before the ship sets off

for someplace colder.

‐ And better for an Arctic wolf.

‐ And better for Wesley.

‐ Yeah, sure. No big deal.

He's just a Lost and
Found item, right?

C'mon, Wesley. I mean, Dog.

‐ Ah!

No, no, no… Free
pass to the tunnels.

Just keep that terror
away from our banana wall!

‐ Sounds good.

‐ Over here, Wesley.
‐ Come on, boy.

‐ This way! ‐ Here, Wesley!

‐ Come on, Wesley.

‐ Yeah!

This way, Wesley.

‐ Thanks, Dave.

And I'm sorry for saying
you were difficult.

I'm always on your side.

‐ Huh!

Whoa! Mr. Snuggles!

‐ I love a happy ending.
‐ Even his tumble is cute!

‐ I can't thank you all enough!

Ready to take
another trip, buddy?

‐ So, I take it you're Axel?

‐ Guilty as charged.

‐ Good. 'Cause as Wesley's
Lost and Found coordinator,

I've got a few questions.

‐ Okay, sure.

Fetch!

‐ Wesley doesn't
just need a friend,

he needs someone who's gonna help
him grow up to be a good dog.

‐ Oh, absolutely.

Fetch!

‐ Someone who cares enough to train him
to be the best Arctic wolf he can be.

‐ Definitely.

Fetch!

‐ Are you sure you're
up to the task?

‐ I spent a whole month
teaching him to fetch, didn't I?

‐ You taught him?

Oh. Okay, then. I
guess that's it.

‐ Another Lost and Found
mission accomplished!

‐ Yeah… sure.

If you ever get lost again,
you know where to find me.

Huh?

Bye, Wesley.

‐ Marty, you okay?

‐ Sure. I'm fine.

I'm a strong, dutiful protector
of the Lost and Found.

And he's just the cutest,
cuddliest, smooshiest,

most loving pup I've ever known!

‐ He's been in
there all afternoon.

Should one of us go in
to see how he's doing?

‐ I'll go.

‐ I thought I was a big strong zebra.
Future chief of the Park Ranger Horses!

But here I am, blubbering
over a Lost and Found item.

‐ So?

‐ So, "You do what you gotta
do and you don't boo‐hoo."

‐ I cried over my mop‐wig for
the dress‐up party this morning.

And a sad commercial
I saw yesterday.

And that fresh bowl of milk
that Carlos spilled last night!

‐ Yeah… and?

‐ You gotta do what you gotta do

and sometimes what you gotta
do is have a little boo‐hoo.

‐ So, how do you feel?

‐ I feel… better.

You think Wesley will be okay?

What if I didn't
do the right thing?

‐ You know you
did. He'll be fine.

‐ I know.

I just feel so‐‐

Gross!

Wesley! But how?

‐ So, the ship was
heading to Florida

where, turns out, their
glaciers melted a long time ago.

So, we got back
off and Mr. Snugg‐‐

Sorry, Mr. Wesley Snuggles,
led me right back here.

But I don't know why.

It's warm here, too.

‐ Wait! I can fix that!

I know an arctic wolf doesn't
belong in New York City forever,

but I hope you both make yourselves
at home while you're here.

Oh!

‐ A Little Wild's new and improved
guest habitat's doors are open!

Whether they have
fins, claws, or paws,

we'll do our best to make
our visitors feel at home.

No matter how long or
short their stays may be.

‐ Only problem with a guest
habitat is it's not forever.

I'll probably fill the
Hudson with my tears

when you and Wesley have to go, but
I'm glad you're making a home here,

even if it's just
"home for now."

‐ As you can see, we've
outfitted the guest habitat

with a temporary glacier for our
first guest an Arctic Wolf Pup!

Uh… Carlos?

‐ Looks like we've got
more training to do, huh?

‐ It can wait.
