The Adventures of Swiss Family Robinson (1998–…): Season 1, Episode 13 - The Adventures of Swiss Family Robinson - full transcript
As always, through Ernst's narration and his diary we view life on the island though his eyes and realize that the Robinsons have been shipwrecked for approximately six months. The family ...
[MUSIC PLAYING]
ERNST (VOICEOVER): Since
we have been shipwrecked,
I've been keeping a
daily journal of life
and our adventures on
our tropical island home.
The mysterious Emily Chan
continues to cling to the hope
that she will be rescued
by her fiance, Wong Sing.
Mother and father seem to be
coping well and rediscovering
life, as well as each other.
My sister, Christina,
has found a true friend
in the cabin boy, Billy.
I often wonder what our
family and friends back home
in Boston... which feels like
a million miles away... would
make of our life is castaways.
No doubt the notion of being
marooned in such a paradise
would be romantic.
We have all lost
our concept of time,
- but the days and weeks.
- Have passed quickly.
With our daily
routine of chores.
Trying, somehow, to survive
alone on a desert island,
against the forces of
mother nature, at times
brings great joy.
Other times, great danger.
BILLY: I bet 100 pounds, you
couldn't get [INAUDIBLE].
[BUZZING]
CHRISTINA: I could so!
I did yesterday.
- ERNST (VOICEOVER):
- Christina, Billy,
Bruno and Mr. Beak have found
other ways of passing the time.
Go on.
Good boy.
[SQUAWKING]
Mr. Beak!
- Likewise, Emily.
- I did it!
I did it!
See?
I got him on his back,
he just flew off.
100 pounds.
I did do it.
Just give me another chance.
Mr. Beak, come on!
Come back.
[SQUAWKING]
Elbow down.
- ERNST (VOICEOVER):
- Joanna has become.
- Adept with a bow and arrow.
- Excellent, Joanna!
- ERNEST (VOICEOVER): This,
- however, offered no protection.
Against an unusual adventure...
Which began quite innocuously
when father made an
announcement one evening
over a makeshift dinner.
Education?
Yes, Joanna.
- None of you has learned.
- Very much since we've.
Been marooned on the island.
We learn something new
practically every day, father.
I think what your
father means, Ernst,
is that shooting arrows
and snaring rabbits isn't
going to take Joanna
and Christina very
far in polite Boston society.
Nor gain you a career, my son.
But we're not in Boston, mama.
No.
- But we will be one.
- Day, Christina.
That's right.
So starting tomorrow,
back to school.
What?
How?
Well, I'll set you
and Joanna a daily task
in arithmetic and composition.
What about me?
Perhaps Emily will test
you on reading and writing?
Me?
I only have one book, mama,
and I've read it 100 times.
- Well, there's.
- Always the Bible.
The Bible?
That's very hard, papa.
It gets easier with practice.
But what about Billy?
Shouldn't he learn?
Of course.
Me?
Yes.
I'm sure Emily would teach you
from Christina's story book.
But I haven't been
to school before.
You haven't?
Not at all?
No.
- Well then it's high.
- Time you started, Billy.
[SQUAWKING]
[LAUGHING]
[WHISTLING]
BEN: I'm losing my mind,
Parsons, lying here listening
you whistle all night.
You ought to do a
bit of whistling, Ben.
Passes the time.
I don't want to pass the time.
- I want to get off.
- This island, I want.
To get back to civilization.
- When we've dealt.
- With Robinson.
That'll never happen.
Oh, yes.
If I didn't know you better...
What, Ben?
What?
You think I'm a-feared of them?
Well I'm not.
He's got guns, and we ain't.
Then let's give up and go.
Never.
He killed my brother.
And you and me swore an oath.
Not to lie here and
listen to your whistling.
Right you are, Ben.
First thing in the
morning we'll go for them.
Really?
My word on it.
[WHISTLING]
Are you keeping your
diary up to date, Ernst?
Yes, mother.
- When we get home, I.
- Shall write it up.
Tell the world of
our adventures.
Well I hope we have no more.
I've had enough adventures
to last me a lifetime.
Goodnight.
Don't stay up too late.
Mother, do you know what day
it is the day after tomorrow?
Without a calendar...
It's my birthday.
Oh, Ernst.
It's funny how we lose
track of time, isn't it?
Anyways, night.
Goodnight.
Don't take it
so hard, my dear.
How could I have forgotten
my own son's birthday?
Quite easily.
- If it weren't for.
- Ernst's journal,
We wouldn't know what
day the Sabbath is.
One day is so much
like another here.
Well, Ernst's birthday
is going to be different.
- If we were in Boston.
- Now, he'd have.
All his school friends around
to the house for a party.
Well that's one good reason
for not being in Boston.
David.
I'm going to bake him a cake.
DAVID: Splendid.
So you will have to
grind me some more flour.
Right now?
It's going to be
a very special day.
ERNST (VOICEOVER): The day did,
indeed, prove to be special,
but not in quite the way
mother, or any of us,
could have ever imagined.
Good morning, Mr. Robinson.
I hope you don't
forget my birthday, mama.
- Perhaps Ernst can.
- Write everyone's.
Birthday down in his journal.
- Then that way, we.
- Won't forget anyone.
Yeah, of course.
Oh, dear.
I have forgotten the sugar.
Ernst, would you come and
fetch me some from the trunk?
- Oh.
- Very well.
We'll have to write Billy's
birthday down as well.
Naturally.
What is your birthday, Billy?
I don't know, miss Joanna.
What?
But you must know.
Everyone knows your birthday.
I don't.
But surely your
mother must... oh.
- I forgot.
- Sorry, Billy.
It must be hard
being an orphan.
Christina.
Now, while Ernst
is away, we must
- all remember to.
- Make him something.
Special for his birthday.
What?
Use your imagination.
We can go looking
for things, Christina.
Mother, there's no sugar left.
Now how am I going
to sweeten the cake?
- What about honey?
- Would that do?
Well, yes it would.
Ernst, directly
after breakfast we'll
go find ourselves a beehive.
BEN: How long are
we going to be here?
As long as it takes.
We'll lie low near their
house and wait our chance.
What's this?
Uh, eh?
No, A.
Eh?
Oh, Billy.
[GROWLING]
Sh, Bruno.
You have to be patient.
Bruno, are you
in school as well?
Can I come, sir?
No, I'm sorry, Billy.
- You have your lessons.
- Let's be off.
[SQUAWKING]
Billy.
[GROWLING]
Keep up, lad.
Don't dawdle!
That's very good, Christina.
Now write that out
and do the next piece.
Now, Billy, let's
try them all again.
A, B?
D?
[SQUAWKING]
Honestly.
- The parrot's more.
- Intelligent than you are.
Fetch me some mint tea.
At least you're capable of that.
ERNST (VOICEOVER): While Billy,
Christina, and Bruno struggled
with their lessons, father,
Joanna, and I tried somehow
to make sense of an
ominous discovery... which
was far removed from a beehive.
Papa.
What is it, Joanna?
What are there?
They look human.
Yes, but too
large to be human.
Who wants to learn
to read anyway?
You do!
I don't.
You want to improve
yourself, Billy.
I'm happy as I am.
What?
Being a slave to Emily?
I'm not a slave!
Yes, you are!
She orders you
about all the time.
I am not a slave!
What are you doing here?
Bringing you tea.
Well why didn't you
knock before coming in?
I'm sorry.
Put it on the table.
Don't spill it!
Now look what you've done.
Get out and leave me in
peace, you stupid little boy.
[GROWLING]
- The bees seemed to.
- Be coming and going.
From around this tree, papa.
[BUZZING]
There.
Well done, Joanna.
But how do we get that money
down without being stung?
Yes.
- Well, that's the.
- Trick, isn't it?
- I've heard that if you.
- Light a fire under the hive,
- The smoke will make.
- The bees drowsy.
ERNST: Really?
Well, that's
the theory anyway.
Shall we put it to the test?
The perfect spot.
Billy?
We'll make camp here.
Camp?
Yeah.
You didn't think I was going
to rush in there, did you?
They got guns.
Billy?
Well what are we going to do?
We wait.
When Robinson leaves, we pounce.
Go get something soft to lie on.
I'll get some eggs from
the chickens of theirs.
All right, then.
Let's stand well
back just in case
our little plan doesn't work.
[BUZZING]
Shut up, you stupid bird!
Oh, there you are.
What are you doing sitting here?
Nothing.
You're not a chicken, Billy.
I can sit where I like.
Oh, be like that.
I won't show you what I've got.
I don't care.
You would if you knew.
That thing?
It's worth a fortune.
Not here it ain't.
It's worthless.
You're just jealous, Billy
Cobb, because it's not yours.
I am not!
You can keep it!
Billy!
Billy, come back!
You can have it!
Yes, Henrietta, Billy is
being silly, isn't he?
[SCREAMING]
Christina!
Got ya!
Get away, you pesky hen.
Emily, come inside.
Quickly!
When I turned around,
there he was slashing
his horrible hook at me.
It was horrible, mama.
What is it?
It's that man, Parsons.
Mama, I'm frightened.
Don't worry, my darling.
Your father will be here soon.
You two stay inside.
Joanna.
Delicious, huh?
A little bit different point
from going to the market.
That's right.
[GROWLING]
You little beauty.
You're my only real friend.
Nobody else likes me.
I don't want to
go back to Boston.
Billy, where is everyone?
David, thank God you're here.
What is it?
- That man Parsons.
- Has come back.
He almost caught Christina
in the chicken coop.
Is she all right?
Yes.
She's just frightened,
that's all.
Joanna, you stay here.
Here.
- ERNST (VOICEOVER):
- While father and I.
- Went to search the.
- Immediate area,
Few could have foreseen
that someone, or something,
was waiting and watching.
- And also had their.
- Eyes set firmly.
On the unsuspecting
Parsons... who
- is patiently waiting.
- For the return of.
His reluctant accomplice, Ben.
- (SPEAKING) Well, he.
- Doesn't seem to have.
Taken any chickens father.
I fear he's after bigger
game than chickens, Ernst.
Can we talk to him?
Reason with him or something?
Gladly, if he'd only listen.
- But I think he's.
- Way beyond that now.
About time.
Where you been?
Get away from me!
No one may go out alone,
or without a weapon.
We will have a guard on look
out, both day and night.
Chances are that Parsons
has gone away again,
but we can't be too careful.
I'll take first watch, father.
- Well thank you,
- Ernst, but I want you.
And I to take the night watch.
So you'd better get some rest.
Papa?
Yes, Joanna?
What will we do
with the beehive?
Leave it is for the moment.
The bees seem
pretty angry, my dear.
Why don't we build a hive?
- That way we can have.
- Honey whenever we want.
- Well that's a very.
- Good suggestion, Ernst.
But right now our priority
is to keep a lookout
and protect ourselves.
Oh, it's you!
Who'd you expect?
What took you so long?
What's the matter with you?
- You look like you've.
- Seen old Nick himself.
Maybe I have, or
something as bad.
What?
Horrible black creature,
like a big monkey.
- What?
- Where?
What happened
I stuck it with me spear.
Well, where did it go?
It's gone off.
To die, I reckon.
I stuck it right hard.
Are you sure?
What if it comes back?
It'll be dead, I told you.
BEN: Well perhaps we should go.
No.
We're staying put.
Look at this.
BEN: What is it?
It looks like a black pearl.
It is.
Must be worth a fortune.
Well where did you find it?
Little Robinson
brat dropped it.
Nearly caught her as well.
- Didn't I tell you they.
- Had treasure in them.
Trunks of theirs?
So much treasure.
- They have this.
- Just to play with.
Treasure, Ben, beyond
wildest dreams.
And we're going to have it.
- We're going to kill Robinson.
- And get that treasure.
ERNST (VOICEOVER): We had no way
of knowing that Parsons and Ben
had set up their camp so
near the tree house come,
- though we kept up.
- Our guard and tried.
To return to life as an
normal... searching the horizon
for any sign of a sail.
The only sign we
noticed, however,
was mother becoming increasingly
tense and on edge as a result
of the recent events.
Oh, no.
Shoo!
Get away, you stupid bird!
Billy?
Yes, Mrs. Robinson?
Just look at what your
stupid bird has done.
Now I'm going to have to
wash all this fruit again.
I'm sorry, ma'am.
Surely goodness and
mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house
of the Lord forever.
That's very good, Christina.
Excellent.
Billy doesn't even
know his alphabet.
Christina, that was
very uncharitable.
- You go and apologize.
- To Billy at once.
Yes, papa.
I'm sorry, Billy.
Ha!
I am.
Go away.
You're not supposed
to talk to slaves.
- Oh Billy, you're.
- Just being stupid!
- They'll probably.
- Stand guard all night.
After your last
attempt, Parsons.
Don't worry, our
time will come.
They'll relax their
guard sometime,
and when they do... good
night, David Robinson.
[CHUCKLING]
Will you be all right?
Of course.
- Bruno and I are a.
- Match for anything.
I believe you are.
I'll relieve you at midnight.
See you then.
[ACCORDION PLAYING]
Billy?
Is that you?
It ain't my
fault I'm an orphan
and never knew me birthday.
[BARKING]
What is it, Bruno?
Over there?
Nah, it's nothing.
Must have been a small animal.
Come on.
[GROWLING]
What's the matter?
There's that noise
again, Parsons.
- Perhaps we'd better.
- Light a fire.
Animals don't like fire.
And let Robinson
know we're here?
Stupid.
- There's something.
- Out there, Parsons.
Well if anything moves,
kill it like I did.
[GROWLING]
Is everything all right?
Yes.
I'm glad I'm not out there.
That animal sounds very angry.
The fire will keep it away.
Go inside and sleep.
- I'll watch the.
- Rest of the night.
Goodnight.
Goodnight, son.
[GROWLING]
Father!
What is it, Ernst?
Billy's gone.
What?
He's not in his bed,
and his things have gone.
- He must be out.
- There in the forest.

that's all.
Joanna, you stay here.
Here.
- ERNST (VOICEOVER):
- While father and I.
- Went to search the.
- Immediate area,
Few could have foreseen
that someone, or something,
was waiting and watching.
- And also had their.
- Eyes set firmly.
On the unsuspecting
Parsons... who
- is patiently waiting.
- For the return of.
His reluctant accomplice, Ben.
- (SPEAKING) Well, he.
- Doesn't seem to have.
Taken any chickens father.
I fear he's after bigger
game than chickens, Ernst.
Can we talk to him?
Reason with him or something?
Gladly, if he'd only listen.
- But I think he's.
- Way beyond that now.
About time.
Where you been?
Get away from me!
No one may go out alone,
or without a weapon.
We will have a guard on look
out, both day and night.
Chances are that Parsons
has gone away again,
but we can't be too careful.
I'll take first watch, father.
- Well thank you,
- Ernst, but I want you.
And I to take the night watch.
So you'd better get some rest.
Papa?
Yes, Joanna?
What will we do
with the beehive?
Leave it is for the moment.
The bees seem
pretty angry, my dear.
Why don't we build a hive?
- That way we can have.
- Honey whenever we want.
- Well that's a very.
- Good suggestion, Ernst.
But right now our priority
is to keep a lookout
and protect ourselves.
Oh, it's you!
Who'd you expect?
What took you so long?
What's the matter with you?
- You look like you've.
- Seen old Nick himself.
Maybe I have, or
something as bad.
What?
Horrible black creature,
like a big monkey.
- What?
- Where?
What happened
I stuck it with me spear.
Well, where did it go?
It's gone off.
To die, I reckon.
I stuck it right hard.
Are you sure?
What if it comes back?
It'll be dead, I told you.
BEN: Well perhaps we should go.
No.
We're staying put.
Look at this.
BEN: What is it?
It looks like a black pearl.
It is.
Must be worth a fortune.
Well where did you find it?
Little Robinson
brat dropped it.
Nearly caught her as well.
- Didn't I tell you they.
- Had treasure in them.
Trunks of theirs?
So much treasure.
- They have this.
- Just to play with.
Treasure, Ben, beyond
wildest dreams.
And we're going to have it.
- We're going to kill Robinson.
- And get that treasure.
ERNST (VOICEOVER): We had no way
of knowing that Parsons and Ben
had set up their camp so
near the tree house come,
- though we kept up.
- Our guard and tried.
To return to life as an
normal... searching the horizon
for any sign of a sail.
The only sign we
noticed, however,
was mother becoming increasingly
tense and on edge as a result
of the recent events.
Oh, no.
Shoo!
Get away, you stupid bird!
Billy?
Yes, Mrs. Robinson?
Just look at what your
stupid bird has done.
Now I'm going to have to
wash all this fruit again.
I'm sorry, ma'am.
Surely goodness and
mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house
of the Lord forever.
That's very good, Christina.
Excellent.
Billy doesn't even
know his alphabet.
Christina, that was
very uncharitable.
- You go and apologize.
- To Billy at once.
Yes, papa.
I'm sorry, Billy.
Ha!
I am.
Go away.
You're not supposed
to talk to slaves.
- Oh Billy, you're.
- Just being stupid!
- They'll probably.
- Stand guard all night.
After your last
attempt, Parsons.
Don't worry, our
time will come.
They'll relax their
guard sometime,
and when they do... good
night, David Robinson.
[CHUCKLING]
Will you be all right?
Of course.
- Bruno and I are a.
- Match for anything.
I believe you are.
I'll relieve you at midnight.
See you then.
[ACCORDION PLAYING]
Billy?
Is that you?
It ain't my
fault I'm an orphan
and never knew me birthday.
[BARKING]
What is it, Bruno?
Over there?
Nah, it's nothing.
Must have been a small animal.
Come on.
[GROWLING]
What's the matter?
There's that noise
again, Parsons.
- Perhaps we'd better.
- Light a fire.
Animals don't like fire.
And let Robinson
know we're here?
Stupid.
- There's something.
- Out there, Parsons.
Well if anything moves,
kill it like I did.
[GROWLING]
Is everything all right?
Yes.
I'm glad I'm not out there.
That animal sounds very angry.
The fire will keep it away.
Go inside and sleep.
- I'll watch the.
- Rest of the night.
Goodnight.
Goodnight, son.
[GROWLING]
Father!
What is it, Ernst?
Billy's gone.
What?
He's not in his bed,
and his things have gone.
- He must be out.
- There in the forest.
