The Croods: Family Tree (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 4 - What Goes Eep Must Come Dawn - full transcript

Whoa!

Yeah!

Woo-hoo-hoo!

Whoo!

And that's crowverine gliding.

No!

This is crowverine gliding.

Boost me!

Yeah! Woo-hoo!

Crow big or crow home!

Crow no! I'm losing my grip!



Hang on!

Oh, crow is me!

Gotcha!

That was awesome!

Nothing like a little
Midnight Mayhem

to make the thing
in your chest thump.

Mine is thumping like
it wants to escape.

Nice!

The thumpier the better.

But we better get back
before everyone wakes up.

Glide you later, crowverine.

Guy-Boy, where are you?

Right here.

Sorry.



Didn't mean to scare you.

How did you do that?

It's all smoke and mirrors!

Literally. I used
smoke and mirrors.

Nice! So no one knows we
left for Midnight Mayhem?

Have I ever let you down?

When I cover for
you, you're covered.

Hop in.

Guy-Boy, you've
outdone yourself.

Aw, it's nothing.

Just some wigs I made,

some strategically-placed food

and a few dry runs with
Belt, Sash and Douglas.

Yeah, but what do you mean by,

"There's no berry
cakes for breakfast"?

Is that a real question?

Berry cakes for me, please.

Dawn, weren't you listening?

There are no berry cakes
because they were stolen.

No, we heard because we
definitely didn't just get here.

Uh, but just in case someone
else wasn't listening, like Gran.

Because we don't need men!

Oh. I'm here. What's
for breakfast?

Can we do a quick recap?

Sure. The punch monkeys
are stealing food

from the kitchen, the
fields, everywhere.

And that's about it.

Eh, we needed to cut
back on food anyway.

Eatin' makes you soft.

Got a story to prove it.

Many moons ago.

Now isn't the time for one
of your long stories, Gran.

Now is the time for vengeance

against those insufferable,
fist-wielding beasts!

Right. That's why I'm gonna
find 'em and grind 'em!

Hey!

I'm afraid this task requires
a more sophisticated approach,

free of simpleminded rhymes.

Namely, my approach.

Hey!

Why don't we just talk to them?

Talk? To simians who communicate
through pugilistic violence?

An exercise in futility.

Thankfully, I've
got a better idea.

I'll invent a brilliant trap
to catch the punch monkeys.

And I've got a better
idea than his idea.

I'll catch them
with my bare hands.

And I've got an
even better idea.

Use your words.

Words solve more
problems than violence.

First one to catch a punch
monkey gets to sleep in a bed.

You're always welcome to
sleep in a bed, but you're on.

Hate to not eat and run,

but Dawn and I have a big
day ahead of us, right, Dawn?

Yep. A big, quiet, not
dangerous in any way day.

Let's go!

- Dawn!
- Gah!

Sorry. I know you got spooked
by that crowverine last night,

and me just now,

but I've got a great
idea for Midnight Mayhem.

Two words, cave collapse.

Falling rocks,
stale air, no light,

tempting but I think I'll pass.

What about sand swimming?

And by sand, I mean quicksand.

And by swimming, I mean
trying not to sink.

Buried alive?

Love it.

But maybe another time?

You're right.

Keep it simple.

When's the last time
you were in a volcano?

I'm not really in a lava mood.

Okay. I hear you.

You had a near miss and you
wanna e-e-ease back into action.

I know just the thing.

Branch bounce?

Yeah, it's easy. I'll go first.

You call that a branch bounce?

Uh-oh.

Gran, are you okay?

Eh, if your joints ain't
crackin', you must be slackin'.

Okay, Dawn, your turn.

Great.

Because I wasn't hoping
you'd forget about me.

Here I go.

Yes. Branch bounce.

So much fun.

What's wrong with other
girl who lives here?

Uh, Dawn had a close
call last night.

It's no big deal.

I almost went splat
for the very last time.

That's all.

Huh. Lost your grrr, huh?

"Grrr"? What's that?

You ever had a
fire in your belly?

Sure.

One time I ate
some lava peppers.

Not that kind of fire.

I'm talkin' about a fire
that never stops burnin'.

A fire that keeps you
goin' when you wanna quit.

But not a fire.

That's grrr!

Get it?

So grrr is courage?

Exactly.

Many moons ago,

a close friend of
mine named, uh, uh...

Who remembers names?

Anyway, she lost her grrr.

So she climbed to the
top of Grrr Mountain

to get her grrr back!

The end.

That's it? Wow.

That's a lot shorter
than your usual stories.

Uh, yeah, it is, isn't it?

But it has everything we
need to get Dawn's grrr back.

It does?

Yeah!

All we have to do is climb
to the top of Grrr Mountain

and, boom, you've got grrr.

Thanks, Gran.

It was nice knowing you, Gran.

Feel like I'm forgetting an
important part of that story.

Eh, I'm sure it doesn't matter.

This is your idea to
catch punch monkeys?

Papaynapple juice?

I know they love
papaynapple but.

No, that's merely the bait.

When those furry-faced
filchers, thirsty from thievery,

reach for this cup
of papaynapple juice,

it will trigger an
elaborate network of vines

that will sweep
them into the trees,

immobilizing them, paw
and foot, in vine cuffs.

Pfft, punch monkeys
won't fall for this.

Of course they will.

They're almost as
mindless as you.

Now watch and weep.

Hey, uh, what are
you guys doing?

Your father is existing

and I'm trapping punch monkeys.

Like the ones right behind you?

Oh! No!

They ruined my trap.

Quickly, I need to
fix this before...

Ohh!

Those mischievous miscreants
turned my own trap against me.

How?

Because you brought farm
smarts to a jungle brawl.

But I'm gonna stop those
monkeys with my inner beast.

How is that different
from your outer beast?

Oh, if you guys wanna
get rid of punch monkeys,

all you gotta do is...

Not now, Thunk!

Get me down!

Thank you.

If your parents catch us

climbing Grrr Mountain,

they'll freak out.

So we need some help.

Or maybe my parents
have a point.

Ha, good one.

Now let's go ask
Guy to cover for us.

I'd love to.

Sorry, Guy-Boy. Reflex.

Yep. My fault.

Oh, so, Grrr Mountain, huh?

A little mid-day mayhem?

Hmm, short notice, high stakes,

but I got ya covered.

I just need wood. Lots of wood.

Guy-Boy, you want us
to get inside that?

Yes.

Because that's the last place
anyone would ever look for you.

- He's right.
- I'd never look for us in there.

Uh, me neither.

Wait just a minute, Guy.

Hope and Ugga!

Ha, just who I was
hoping to run into.

So, what's new?

You speak punch monkey, right?

Punch monkey? Yes. Yes, I do.

Great. Can you
teach us how to say

I would love to, but I'm
in a little bit of a rush.

Got a sick chicken seal on
my hands, so... gotta go.

That chicken seal did
look a little off.

Yeah. Because it
was made of wood.

- You did it again, Guy.
- The chicken seal worked perfectly.

I already miss being in there.

You're welcome, you
maidens of mischief.

And, until you return,
your secret will be safe,

thanks to my clever Guy-jinks!

Whoa!

He vanished.

Guy-Boy? Where'd you go?

Right here.

Jeez.

You really gotta
stop doing that.

For your own good.

Yeah.

Solid advice. Yeah.

I don't know about this.

Maybe I don't need grrr?

It's your call, Dawn.

The question is, if you give up on
your grrr now, will you regret it?

Well, I definitely don't wanna
spend the rest of my life grrr-free.

Then let's do this.

There it is. Grrr Mountain.

I can't do this.

You don't have to.

Because we're doing it together.

Thanks, Eep.

Hey, maybe grrr stands
for gr-r-roup effort.

How exactly does this
catch punch monkeys?

If you wanna catch an animal,
you gotta be an animal.

Hardly a stretch for you.

Papaynapples?

Ooh, I'm not gonna look this
gift fruit in the mouth.

Thanks, sky!

Ooh! I smell papaynapple.

And where there's papaynapple,
there pa-punch monkey.

Hmph! Hmm.

What are you doing?

I'm hot on the punch trail.

Whoa!

Monkey see, monkey done.

Dad, you're crushing
my papaynapples.

Huh? This punch monkey
looks like my son.

But how?

Dad, it's me. Thunk. Your son.

He even sounds like him.

Because I am him.

Don't you know me, Dad?

Well, yeah. Of course.

It's just, I
smelled papaynapple.

Because the punch monkeys were
toying with you as they did me.

Oh, they're clever, those
punch-happy primates.

They circumvented
our solo efforts.

But what if we unite
your animal acumen

with my inventive ingenuity

against our common enemy?

What say you, Grug?

I say I have no idea
what you just said.

I'm asking you to team up.

Oh. Well, working on our
own isn't working, so, sure.

Since you need me so much.

A fragile alliance it is.

Go, Team Punch!

Okay.

Let me know when you
wanna hear my idea

for how to stop the punch
monkeys from stealing.

My papaynapples!

This mountain is
bigger than it looked.

And it looked like a mountain.

Don't think about the mountain.

Let's talk about something
to take your mind off of it.

Ooh! I know. Let's swap secrets.

Okay. But I don't
have any secrets.

Especially from you.

I'm an open bark journal.

Come on, Dawn.

Everyone has secrets.

I'll go first.

I used to think my shadow was alive
and died when the sun went down.

Well, I believed that too.

When I was six.

Yeah, I stopped
believing it last week.

Oh. Your turn.

Hmm. Well, like I
said, no secrets, so.

Really? You never did
anything embarrassing?

Even as a kid?

Oh, no.

I just remembered
something awful.

Ooh-hoo. Sounds juicy. Spill it.

Uh, maybe later.

Let's just keep... Whoa!

Oh, that's a big crevice.

How am I gonna get across?

Easy. I'll help you.

Right after you
tell me your secret.

No way. It's too embarrassing.

In that case, see you
on the other side.

Yah!

Okay. You can do
it. You can do it.

Are you nuts? You can't do it.

Just tell her the secret.

You can't tell her the secret.

Okay.

That's it, you're doing this.

You did it!

Your secret's that bad, huh?

Hmm.

What if Gran's wrong and
I don't get my grrr back?

Then you live the rest
of your life in fear.

But that's not gonna happen

because we're going to make it
to the top of this mountain.

Uh... not if I have
to go in there.

Relax. I'll be with you
every step of the way

if you cough up your secret.

You know, if I tell you my
secret, it's not a secret anymore,

so really there's
no secret to tell.

Eh, not buying it, huh?

Cave it is.

Hey! Wait up!

Did you suck your thumb?

No.

Night terrors?

Not even close.

Are your parents
really crowverines?

That would actually
explain a lot, but no.

So are you gonna help me
get across this vine or not?

Sure. You got this, Dawn.

Yah!

Were you a hammock-wetter?

I still don't get this.

Once again, when the
vile simian vagabonds

breach the perimeter,

these pigators will
start squealing.

That means our target
is in the hot zone.

Then I'll launch the first-ever
"living net," that's you,

to ensnare the punch monkeys.

It's foolproof.

Or, more bluntly, you-proof.

Huh. Will it hurt?

Yes, immensely.

But no pain, no restrain.

And it's the ideal symbiosis

of my infinite genius and
your utilitarian bulk.

I heard "yes" and then noises.

- Hey, guys.
- Still trying to catch the punch monkeys?

'Cause I know how to do it.

I'm sure you think
you do, Thunk.

But as you can see, Team
Punch is on the job.

I'm gonna be a net!

No! We've been sabotaged again!

My beloved ballista!

Yeah. Hey, hey.

We don't need that
'cause we're who we are.

And you know what?

You're a success 'cause look
how far you made that thing go.

Yes, it did soar like
a majestic Eelgle.

You're right.

We'll prevail over those
primate purloiners.

Because Team Punch.

And because I know how
to catch punch monkeys.

Fine, Thunk.

Let's hear your idea.

All we have to do is
share our food with them.

Then they'll leave us
alone. Here, watch.

Hey, punch monkeys, I've
got some papaynapple here.

There you are, little guys.

Now, you can have
some papaynapple,

but we have to share.

Guy!

Oof!

Never gonna happen, Guy-Face.

I invented fear.

Now where's Eep and other girl?

Eep and Dawn?

Yep, they're right
over there. Frolicking.

Ah, that's Belt and
Sash in bad wigs.

I'm looking for the
real Eep and other girl.

Are they back from
Grrr Mountain yet?

Wait, you know about that?

Of course.

I told Eep a long story about
a friend who lost her grrr

and climbed Grrr
Mountain to get it back.

The end.

That's it?

That's the whole story?

Just remembered the
rest of the story.

The mountain was deadly and
my friend never came back.

Whew! Thought I was losing it
there, but Gran's still got it.

Wait, the mountain is deadly?

We need to go save Eep and Dawn!

We?

Nah. Then I'd just
have to save you too.

I'll bring the girls home.

You stay here and cover
for us when you wake up.

Wake up? But I'm not...

What are you do...

Nap tap!

Yes!

I... I didn't think I
could do it, but I did it!

Grrr Mountain, I own you!

You... you!

One small step for Dawn...

One giant Eep for friend-kind.

Who are you calling a giant?

Oh.

Yeah, that didn't
come out right.

But we made it to the top!

We did it!

I guess that means
I got my grrr back.

Thanks for all the help.

You know what? You
never lost your grrr.

You've always had
it. Just like me.

What are you talking about?

I was terrified.

I'll let you in on
another little secret.

I get scared too.

What?

Yeah, that's right.

Storms, bearacudas,
even volcanoes.

But I don't let it stop me.

And neither did you.

That's true grrr.

Whoa. That's huge.

This is a day to remember.

I need a memento.

Ooh. How about this weird rock?

That's not a rock.

That's a tooth.

A really big tooth!

And that's where it came from!

This mountain has a mouth!

I knew Gran's story
was too short!

Yeah, she forgot the part
about the mountain being alive!

This is on my scared list.

Whoa!

Mine too.

But I've got grrr.

There's even a fire in my belly.

Or it's the vine squeezing me.

Either way, this
mountain is going down!

That's right, other girl.

Because Gran is
here to save you.

My name is Dawn.

Yeah! And Dawn is gonna save us.

Because she's all grrr!

Grrr!

Whew!

Not bad.

But if she can save you,

why did I have to come
all the way up here?

Not liking the look
of those vines.

Well, it's nothing a little
Mountain Mayhem can't fix.

Yeah, let's grrr this hill.

So this part is all me, right?

It's okay, Gran, we got this.

Seriously?

Last time I rush out to save
you two from a living mountain.

Vine block! How
do we get past it?

Why are you asking me?

This is other girl's show.

And where'd she go?

Dawn? Oh, no!

She's not here! Dawn!

Need a lift?

Grab on!

Thanks for saving us.

I didn't save you.

You saved...

Oh, yeah, I did save you.

Thanks for reminding
me that I could.

You're welcome.

And thanks for doing my
job back there, Dawn.

Hey, you remembered my name.

Don't get cocky, Grrr.

So, we fixed the
punch monkey problem.

While you guys were
catching each other.

How?

Did you find my
beloved ballista?

No. We used our words.

Words they could understand.

So, no more monkey
business for a while.

Thanks to us.

And no thanks to you.

So, because you didn't help us,
we're not going to help you.

To be fair, our failures
made their success possible.

So, in a way, we fixed
the punch monkey problem.

Yes! Go, Team Punch!

Hey, you know who'd be
perfect for Team Punch?

The punch monkeys!

So... I got you something.

A grrrmento.

Or grrrvenir.

Your choice.

I married a pumpkin.

What?

That's my secret.

When I was really little,

my best friend was a
pumpkin named Gordo,

and I loved him so much,
I pretended to marry him.

Whoa. That's incredible.

You should see
the wedding album.

Thanks for being the
best best friend.

Aw.

Thanks for sharing the best
secret I've ever heard.

How long do you think
Guy will be asleep?

Oh. Gran said not too long.

Three days, tops.
