[bunniefuu]

[ Clock chiming, thunderclap]

[ Creaking]

[ Owl hooting]

[ Shrieking]

[ Crying]

[ Gasps]

[ Screaming]

Try to look smart, young man!

[ Needle scratching record]

[ Chuckles]

We've been waiting
for over an hour.

[ Exaggerated french accent]:
tresapologies, mon seigneur.

Ze chef is having
a bit of a difficulty.

I will go and check
one more time.

What kind of a chef are you?!

Ze patrons,
they are getting restless.

Come here, you little devil.

Ah-ha... Almost got you.

[ Snap]
oh... Ow!

How much longer is
zis going to take?

[ Snap]
chef: ow!

[ Giggling]

This is going to be great.

Ecoutez,we can't go
through zis

Every time someone
places zis order.

It is, after all,
the especialiteof the house.

Ze ting that everyone
comes here to eat.

Ah-ha... Got you.

Live, boiled lamster.

[ Gibbering]

Live, boiled monster!

They're eating monsters.

[ Growling]

Run, monster eaters, run!

[ Both screaming]

[ Panting]

I got you, buddy.

Nobody's going to eat monsters

As long as ickis is around.

I saved you!

Ooh, ickis, the monster saver.

I like that.

[ Chuckling]

As your protector

You have my word,
my vow as a monster saver:

I'll see you home safely.

What, rat got your tongue?

Not that I expect much.

A simple thank you
would suffice.

Hi, how are you?

[ Gibbering]

All right... Okay.

Five more monsters.

Well, all right, fine.

I can lead you all to freedom.

Come on, follow me to the dump!

Uh, to the d...

Uh, guys, did you hear me?

[ Chuckles nervously]

Guys?

[ Snapping and clattering]

[ Ickis groaning]

I couldn't let them get eaten.

After all,
they're our monster brothers.

Ow!

Ickis, these are not monsters,
they are lobsters.

Humans eat them; they are
considered a delicacy, duh.

Ow, ow!

[ Blubbering]

I wondered... Ow!...

Why they didn't...
Ow!... Talk much. Ow!

They are also
sea creatures, ickis.

They live in the ocean.

The ocean... Oh, no.

What's wrong?

I promised

To take them home.

Krumm:
put them in the sewer
with the alligators.

No, krummy,
he made a promise

And a monster's word
is as good as garbage.

She's right.

Gather the lobsters
for their journey to the sea.

Ickis, did you not have
six lobsters when you arrived?

Yeah, six.

One, two, three, four, five...
Buddy?

You can tell them apart?

Where did he go?

Oh, no, poor buddy.

Alone, lost and helpless
in this strange place.

Who knows
what could happen to him?

And who knows
what could happen to you?

I could not imagine that
the gromble would take kindly

To a school
full of crustaceans.

Go, ickis, find him.

Krumm and I
shall watch the others.

Thanks, guys,
I'll be but a moment.

[ Giggling]

Hey, that tickles, cut it out.

[ Giggling]

Okay, now.

If I were a lobster

Where would I go?

Think, think, think, think!

He would go somewhere.

Where would he get me
into the most trouble?

With the monsters!

[ Shrieks]

[ Panting]

Oh, well, then.

[ Chuckling]

He must be somewhere else.

Ow!

Ow!
Yow!

Oh!
Ow!

Oh, no!

What is going on here?

[ Growling]

[ Chuckling nervously]

[ Roaring]

He's not
happy.

Hey, I got a prize in mine!

No!

[ Screaming and snapping]

Buddy, where are you?

We got to get out of here
before this...

Food fight!

...gets ugly.

[ Yelling]

Oblina, help me!

I'm busy!

Ooh... There's a nice lobster.

Nice, helpful lobster.

Give me my lips!

[ Yells]

[ Crash]

I think I'm beginning
to understand

Why humans eat them.

All right,
I have simply had enough.

No more ms. Nice monster.

It is time to get tough.

Go, oblina!

"Yee," as they say, "hah"!

[ Yelling]

Here, lobster.

Here, buddy.

Stop this nonsense right now

Or I will tell the gromble

And I will look forward
to you all being snorched.

[ Blows raspberry]

[ Groaning]

Buddy, come back!

I've got you!

Eh... Where is he?
Where is he?!

[ Crash, screech]

Oh, I've got a really bad
feeling about this.

Aiee!

[ Door creaking]

[ Gromble chuckling
and humming]

♪ La, la, la, la...

[ Grunting]

[ Sighing]

Ah...

[ Both screaming]

Ickis, you have
a pressing reason

For invading the
sanctity of my room

Without permission?

No, no! I mean, i...

In that case

It has been a very long day

And I am looking forward to
getting some well-deserved rest.

So if you don't mind...

Get lost!

But, but, but, but, but...

But...

[ Chuckling]

At last,
a little peace and quiet.

Ooh, ah...
Good night, mr. Snuggy-wuggy.

[ Snoring]

Eee!

Yah!

Ick...

Is!

Don't even think about it.

Gromble!

Mm-hmm... Mm-hmm.

So this is what
you've been hiding.

I told you before, ickis...

No pets!

Oh, you're going to be

In deep trouble for this.

A snorching is
far too good for you.

This kind of disobedience
deserves something much worse!

[ Gibbering]

Uh... But, sir,
these are not pets.

They are refugees

That ickis has bravely
risked his life to save

From a fate
worse than death:

Being eaten by humans.

What?

That's right, your slimyosity.

He made a promise, a vow.

Ickis, is this true?

Yes, sir. I promised
to get them safely home.

I just didn't know
that home was the ocean.

Well, in that case, ickis...

I'm proud of you.

You are?

Yes. Even though
you single-handedly

Disrupted the entire academy

Not to mention disturbed
my much-needed rest.

A monster's word
is a sacred thing.

Keep your promise, ickis,
no matter what.

Now, go, take your
friends to the sea.

Where they belong!

[ Snorting]

I guess this is it,
little buddy.

It was, well...
[ Chuckling]

It was maybe not fun

But I'm glad that you
didn't get eaten.

But now, it's time
for you to go home.

Be free, little friend!

[ Squealing]

Free, okay?!

[ Giggling]

Free!

Ow!

Oh...

[ Crying]

Please be free, already.

Be free! [ Crying]

[ Siren wailing in distance]

[ Screeches to halt]

Ah, the big city!

[ Coughing]

It's beautiful!

[ Coughing]

And now to start
my fabulous career.

"You can be a model."

[ In affected european accent]:
ha! You can be a model?

Um, yes, that, that is

I'd like to be a model...

If that's okay.

[ Laughing]

[ Stop abruptly]

You cannot be
a model for me

Ze great
dietrich duchamps

Unless you have something
special about you.

Special?

Are you
hard of hearing?

You ridiculous

Apple-cheeked,
farming person?

I said "special"!

Zese girls are special--

Something you will never be.

Now leave me

You non-special milker
of a cow's udders.

I titter at you.

[ Jeering laughter]

[ Crying]

[ Sniffling]

Three dogs with
everything on them.

And don't skimp
on the kraut.

Three frankie footsies
a-coming right up!

[ All screaming]

[ Humans yelping]

[ Laughing boastfully]

Score another one for oblina.

I am the best.

Oh, yes, oblina,
you are the best.

You are amazing.

You can scare anyone.

Can we go home now?

Ickis, if it pains
you so to hear

Of my superior
scaring ability

Then maybe you
should go home.

Um, maybe we
should all go home.

Look!

[ Growling]

[ Laughs nervously]

Nice bark-and-bite!

Bad bark-and-bite!

Very bad
bark-and-bite!

[ Screaming,
panting]

Really, ickis, you pick

The worst times
to fool around!

Come on,
oblina, let's go!

[ Garbled]:
I'm trying!

I can't!

My lips.

[ Barking]

[ Yelps]

[ Stretching, snap]

[ Catching breath]

Oh, that was a close
one, right, oblina?

Oblina?

[ Screaming]

What happened
to your lips?

[ Crying]

Not special.

Why can't I have
something special about me?

Oh.

[ Chuckles]

Thank you.

Wait till they see me now.

Ha!

I thought I told you to leave.

Kindly take your painfully

Ordinaryface away from--

[ Gasps]

Sacre bleu!

As they say in
the foreign country

From which I am from.

Look at those lips!

[ Gasps]

You should be
a supermodel!

I kiss your foot.

[ Smacking]

And now I must
give you a name

A very special name.

My name is lucy.

I got it!

You shall be

"Lulu, the girl with
the really big lips!"

Ooh! I applaud my own genius.

[ Applauding]

Oh, yes, he is
just unbelievable.

Oh, wonderful,
absolutely.

He's brilliant.

Ickis:
bingo!

Did you find
the lips?

No, that's what it says
on this card-- "bingo."

Don't worry, oblina.

We might not find
your lips

But we'll do
anything to help you.

We sure will.

And we can start
by giving you

A nice pair of
replacement lips here.

[ Growling
with irritation]

[ In oblina's voice]:
no, no, you ninnies!

I cannot wear this!

Will you look at that attitude!

Already she behaves
like a superstar!

You shall be
my greatest discovery.

[ Mumbling angrily]

You dirty little rat!

Take your hands off me, krumm!

Yes, I am a crumb

For ever having
touched you

You saucy, hot-tempered
supermodel.

Flunkies!

[ Flunkies grunt]

Miss lulu will stay here with me

So she can absorbmy genius.

Meanwhile, I want you
to arrange

A debut photo session
for tomorrow.

Chop-chop!

Lulu, with your lips
and my brain

We shall rule
the fashion world!

No, no, no, no, no!

[ Mumbles]

No, no, no, no, no!

I love this girl!

[ Growling]

I don't think she likes
her replacement lips.

Whatever gave you
that idea?

I think oblina's trying
to tell us something.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Your lips!

They are, um, uh,
a circle, circle around...

Around, around...

Around the dump
in days!

[ Muffled screeching]

[ Screeching]

Okay, okay,
I'll get it now.

Um, don't tell me,
don't tell me!

Wait, wait, wait.

Ah-ha, I think I got it.

I think I got it!

I give up.

She's saying,
"I know my lips

"Are around here
somewhere

"And I have a plan
to get them back

But we have to wait
until later."

How did you get that?

Oh, lucky guess.

I still do not know

Why we have to do this
in the middle of the night.

Oblina, are you really sure
this is a good idea?

[ Growling angrily]

Uh, she says
she's sure.

Oh, fine,
mr. Interpreter.

Well, here
goes nothing.

Three, two, one...

Go!

[ Yelling at top of lungs]

This way.[ Yelling]

[ Yelling]

Lulu, my precious
investment

Is everything
all right?

[ In lucy's voice]:
yes, yes, um,
I'm just, uh...

[ Yelling]

Oh, no, this girl
is hungry!

Food for lulu,
right away!

But not too much.

No, please,
I'm fine.

There's nothing wrong.

Okay, my little
meal ticket.

Good night.

[ Sighs]

[ Oblina's voice]:
here, I'm over here!

Hey, shut your trap

I'm trying to sleep here!

[ Shuts window]

I think this
is the place.

Lulu, are you sure
you are all right?

Mm-hmm.

Hang on, oblina,
we're almost there.

Lulu, I know

You are nervous
about your debut

But not to be worriful.

You shall be a star!
All right?

All right, now.

Good night.

[ Oblina's voice]:
my lips, my lips

My lips, my lips!

Oh, of course

You are worried
about your lips.

Come, I will keep
you company

And see to it
that no one goes near

Those money-making
lips of yours

Until your big debut
in the morning.

We have to get
those lips back.

Ickis, there
are an awful lot

Of humans in there.

You're right,
what was I thinking?

What is she
saying now?

That she has a plan
to get her lips back

But we have to wait.

Again with the waiting?

We're always waiting around.

What are we waiting for
thistime?

[ Applause]

Ladies and gentlemen
of the press

People, I bid you good welcome.

Now comes the moment
I have made you all wait for.

My newest model-type sensation

Lulu, the girl
with ze really big lips!

[ Applause and exclamations]

Brilliant!
Fabulous!

[ Applause continues]

[ High-pitched squeal]

Now?

She says...

Give me
a little credit!

This is the girl
with the superstar lips

And the superstar attitude.

Baskin her
radiant nastiness.

Hello, um...

So very nice to meet you all.

What kind of
attitude is that?

What is she,
from iowa?

[ Laughs nervously]

Come on, lulu, say

Say some of those
nasty things

You said yesterday.

[ Meekly]:
um... Leave me alone?

Ooh, boy!

Some attitude.

[ All laughing]

Listen to me

You sweet-cheeked
guttersnipe.

I want you to show me

Your superstar attitude now!

Now!

[ Shrieks]

[ Stops]

[ Roars]

[ All screaming]

These horrible lips!

Somebody help me
get these things off!

[ Brakes screeching]

Oh, thank you

Thank you, thank you!

Oblina, are you
all right?

[ Catching breath]

Yes, yes, i-i'm fine, i...

[ Gasps]

Oh! They are back!

Oh, my lips are back.

Oh, my wonderful,
wonderful, lippy lip lips!

Can you imagine

Not being able to speak
for a whole day, I mean...

It was hard.

It was unbearable.

It was...

The happiest day
of my life.

[ Laughs]

Oh, icky, you know

You should try
to work on your attitude.

And I know
just how you should do it.

[ Duchamps cackling]

Oh, god!
