[Blast]

Badou:
whoa! Thumpin'!

Munroe: awesome!
Chiku: cool!

Yes, yes, yes,

My zip-zap machine is rather...
Ahem... Cool!

We'll have those boulders
cleared away

From that fossil in-

Chiku:
in a monkey minute!

Oh, yes.
[Chuckle]

[Zip-zap machine whirs]

[Loud blast]

Wow!
Mr. Toothy!

Rawwwwwr!

[Chiku and badou laugh]

Can we go see,
professor?

Hmm...

Let me just power down
the zip-zap.

[The zip-zap whirs]

Come along,
fellow fossil hunters.

Let's see
what we've uncovered.

It's tusk-tastic!

I can't wait
to show my papi.

I'll fetch him at once
for a lookie-loo.

He wanted to be informed
immediately

If we found anything
exciting!

How long will it take
to dig out, professor?

Oh, not long at all.

A few weeks.

Weeks?!
But you zip-zap-

Professor wozikiwak:
it's difficult to use it
close to the fossil,

So we use these.

After all, we wouldn't want
to damage such a rare find,

Would we?
No, no, no.

And that's why
it takes so long!

Exacta-lutely, chiku.

Now, you children continue
while I fetch the king.

You'll be very careful,
yes, yes, yes?

Remember, an archeologist's
greatest tool is patience.

Professor, look out!

Agh! Oh dear!
[Chuckles]

C'mon! Let's get cracking
on mr. Toothy!

[Giggling]

[Hammering]

Whew! This is gonna
take forever.

Remember what
the professor said, 'bu.

An archeologist's
greatest tool is patience.

[Hammering]

[Gasps] I just had
a tusk-tastic idea!

We could have the fossil
totally dug out

Before my papi
even gets here.

[Pickaxe clatters]

[Whirring]

Chiku:
I don't know, 'bu.

Do you think
this is a good idea?

I'm not sure
this is a good idea.

C'mon! We can zap away the rock
around mr. Toothy

And have him clear in...
In a monkey minute.

But the professor says
it's too difficult.

It looked easy.

You just press...
Um... This!

[Beeping repeatedly]

[Beeps and whirs]

Badou!

Agghhh!
Maybe you press this!

[Beeps and blasts]

[Blasting]

Chiku:
don't hit the fossil, 'bu!

Ungh! Don't hit us!

All:
aaagggggghhhhhhhh!

Badou:
agh!

[Gasps]

[Blasting repeatedly]

Whoa!
[Rock crashes down]

Munroe:
rock slide!

Chiku:
runnn!

Whaaaaa!

Up here, guys!

Aggghhhhhh... Oof!

Thanks.

munroe:
hellllllp!

Quick,
monkey-dangle time!

Munroe: agghhh!
Chiku: [gasps]

Whoa!

Whew!
That was close.

I'll say!

I nearly got
quill-ified.

Sorry.
I can't help it.

At least
we're all okay.

But the canyon isn't!
Look!

Badou:
oh no!

The dinosaur fossil!

We gotta fix it
before my papi gets here!

Chiku:
where's the zip-zap?

Did it get buried too?

[The zip-zap whirs
and starts blasting]

Whaaaa!

Badou:
let's get outta here!

babar:
professor wozikiwak!

Good of you
to come and get me.

I hope my visit won't take
too much time

Away from your work.

Oh, no, no, no,
your majesty.

I'm happy to report

Everything in the canyon
is under control!

Whhaaaaa! Aggghhhhh!
Eeeek!

I hope my grandson is being
a good fossil hunter.

Oh, prince badou
is very helpful!

Whaaaaaa!

[Blasting]

Well, I'm certainly
looking forward

To seeing this special
dinosaur fossil.

Then let's not waste
another minute

In getting you there.

No, no, no!

[Engine hums]

[the zip-zap blasts repeatedly]

We've gotta stop
that thing

Before it zaps
the whole canyon.

Or us!

I've got an idea!

The zip-zap has a power switch,
right?

[Blasting]

Ready... Steady... Fire!

Nits and gnats!
I missed!

[Gasps]

Uh-oh!

[Blasting]

Munroe:
stone storm!

[The zip-zap blasts repeatedly,
stones clank and ping]

Oh no!

Whaaaaa!

Whaaaaa!

[Blasting]

[Crumbling crash]

Phew!
That was close.

Hey!
Hey, guys, help me!

Ungh! I'm caught!

Chiku,
you're a genius!

That's how we'll catch
the zip-zap too!

[Blasting]

[Stone clanks]

Better hurry.

It's coming back!

You guys stay back!

Time to put this machine
on a leash!

[Blasting]

Yeeeehawwww!

Woo-hoo!

Way to go, 'bu!

[Blasting]

Oof! Whooooooaaaaa!

[Gasps]

Oh no!

Whaaaaa!

Whooooooooaaaoooaaaa!

Munroe and chiku:
aggghhhh! Eeeeek!

Ooooof!

[Blasting]

[Pained groans]

What are we gonna do now,
badou?

I don't know.

But I can't let
that thing

Zap every rock
and boulder!

Munroe:
oof!

How 'bout...

Chiku:
unnnnnnngggh!

You start by pulling me
outta this box?!

A box...

That's it!
Munroe, you're a genius!

[Blasting]

[Metallic clank]

Chiku:
now, guys! Now!

Bull's eye!

Yay!

[Energy hums]

We need to weigh it down!
Grab some rocks!

Whaaaaa!

[Gasps]

Oof!

[Gasps]
aaaagggghhhh!

Whooooaaaa!

[Clank]

Whaaaaaaaa!

Badou and chiku:
[gasp]

Whhhaaahhhaaaa!

Ungh!

[Groans]

[Blasting]

[Blasting]

Munroe, look out!

[Blasts and zaps]

[Gasps] munroe!

[Blasting]

Chiku:
munroe?! Are you okay?

Hiiiii-yah!

Hi-yoooooh!

Where is that thing?!

Wow! I guess the zip-zap
only works on rocks.

[Blasting]

If I hadn't been
so impatient,

None of this would
have happened!

Maybe patience
is the answer!

The zip-zap has to run out
of power sometime, right?

Sure!

The battery can't last
much longer!

But how are we gonna keep it

From doing more damage
until then?

[Blasting]

Guys?
I have an idea.

[Blasting]

Chiku:
'bu! It's gonna zap
mr. Toothy!

Oof!

Hi-yah!

Badou:
we gotta keep it in this
little area until...

It runs out of power!

Woo-ha!

[Grunts of effort]

[Shovels clank]

[Sighs]

It's working, 'bu!
It's slowing down!

Hi-yah!

[Blast]
ooof!

Oops!

[Gasps]

Munroe:
'bu!

Oof!

[Hums as it powers down]

[Hard metallic clank]

You did it, bu!
You did it!

Good thing it was
almost out of power

And flying so low.

Now there's only
one thing left to do.

[Sighs]
tell my papi.

chiku:
sorry about your machine,
professor.

Can you fix it?
You can fix it, right?

Oh yes, chiku.

But this time

I'll make more
than one remote control!

babar:
[grunts of effort]

[Grunting]

I'm sorry about
all this, papi.

I caused a real mess.

Sometimes the faster
you try to do something,

The slower you make things
for yourself.

professor wozikiwak:
oh, yes!

The fossil is fine!

Now, who is going to help me
excavate it?

I'd like to,
professor,

But I understand
if you don't want me to.

What is an archeologist's
most important tool?

Patience!

It's important
for a prince, too.

It really is
an amazing specimen.

Very toothy.

All:
rawwwwwr!

All:
[laughing]

[Snoring]

[Chuckles]

Agghhhh!

Ho ho!

Baron sneak,
it is i, the elephant prince,

Come to stop you

From stealing
the king's crown.

Surrender to me

Or feel the sting
of my sword!

[Fighting grunts,
sticks clack]

ms. Strich:
und... Scene!

Oh! Merci, players.

Your tryout for parts
in this year's play were...

Uh... Tres spirited.

Babar:
well done, boys.

Thanks, papi.

Your were good in the part
of the old king too!

Need I remind you,
madame director,

Of my brilliant performance?

It is i,
the dashing ambassador...

Er, elephant prince,

Come to stop you
from stealing the crown's king.

Um...

Hey! Agh!

Whoa! Ungh!

[Groaning]

Munroe:
maybe he could get a part
as the royal rug.

We have only three roles
left to fill

For this year's play.

So, without further ado...

His majesty, the elephant king,
will be played by...

His majesty,
king babar.

[Babar chuckles,
badou and munroe clap]

Ms. Strich:
the evil baron sneak
will be played by...

munroe.

Woo hoo!

ms strich:
und last,
but by no means least,

Starring in the role
of the elephant prince-

[door bursts open]

lady rataxes:
stop!

I insist that my rhudi
be allowed

To tryout for the part!

Ms. Strich:
oh! Of course, lady rataxes.

Auditions are open to all.

Lord rataxes:
make it quick, rhudi.

I hate all this talky-talk
acting stuff.

[Deep inhale and exhale]

Ho ho, baron sneak.

It is i,
the elephant prince!

[Whispers in unison]
I've come to stop you
from stealing the king's crown.

Surrender to me
or feel-

Huh?

Ha!
The sting of my sword!

Ms. Strich:
[gasps]

Quelle passion!

Rhudi, you must play
our elephant prince!

Rhudi?
Wait a minute, you can't-

crocodylus:
you can't do that!

As director of the play,

Ms. Strich most
certainly can.

Prince badou's tryout
was very good.

Your's, ambassador,
was uh...

amusing.

But rhudi... Ooh!
Rhudi has a gift.

Well, [chuckles]

He gets it from my side
of the family.

[Chuckles]

now, I have some ideas
for the play.

first, does it have
to be about elephants?

Don't be discouraged,
badou.

There will be other plays,
other roles.

You can have my part.

Munroe, you're gonna be
tusk-tastic as the evil baron.

You got your part
fair and square.

So did rhudi, I guess.

Ungh!

Whaaaaa!

Chiku:
sorry, 'bu!
It's not a real wall!

It's painted to look
like a real wall!

I'm building the set
for your play!

It's not my play.
Rhudi got the part.

Really?!

Well, I could use
an extra hand -

Or a trunk -

To get this wall
to the stage!

Thanks, 'bu!

You know,
now that you're not acting,

We could sure use help
setting up for the play.

Rhudi:
[laughing]

no autographs!

crocodylus:
muck and mire!

I should be the one
starring in the play.

Without me,
there would be no play!

We could arrange that.

Dilash,
that's a terrif-

badou:
[clears throat]

A terrible idea!

You should be ashamed
of yourself!

The crocs are up
to something.

Maybe I will stick
around for a bit.

Yay!
Why don't you bring

Elephant prince rhudi
his crown...

[chuckles]
if it isn't too small
for his swelled head.

Whaaaaaaa!

That's no crown
for a prince like my rhudi.

Rataxes!

get away from that snack table
and come here!

Whoa! Yes, my little
snap dragon fang?

My crown!

That's our family's
most valuable possession!

Rhudi:
don't get your horns
in a twist, grandpa.

it's safe with me.

Hmm...

Oof!

If that crown goes
missing,

The rhinos will raise
a royal ruckus!

They'll pull rhudi
out of the play

And the part of
the elephant prince will be...

Mine! [Grunts]

Right! Let's take it
from the top!

Rhudi:
ho ho, baron sneak!

It is i,
the elephant prince!

Ms. Strich:
a little lower
for the prince's swing, please.

You're helping out, badou.
Good lad!

Ms strich and rhudi:
whoa! Oof!

Badou:
oops!

Ms. Strich:
oh, thank you.

Everyone, fake tive...
Er, er, take five!

What are you doing,
dilash?

I'm uh... Er...
Volunteering for the play.

Great!
That's great, dilash!

You can paint those swords
over there.

Dilash:
[groans]

I think the crocs are after
lord rataxes' crown!

[Gasps]
not coooool!

The play would be ruined.

Should we tell the king?

We don't have any
real proof yet.

rhudi:
you did that on purpose!

You tried to knock me
out of the play

So you could take my place!
Gimme that!

Rhudi, I think someone's
trying to steal

Your grandfather's crown.

Hah! You're a sore loser,
badou.

It would serve him right

If you let the crown
get stolen, 'bu.

If the crocs are up
to no good,

It's my job to stop them.

[Snarls]

Oof!

Sorry, ambassador!

Something I can
help you with.

[Groans]
no. No, no.

[Grunts]
just in a hurry to...
Buy tickets.

Ho ho, baron sneak!

it is i,
the elephant prince...

Dilash:
whaaaaa-ooooaaa!

[Thump]

Badou:
careful, dilash!

hey, what are you doing
with rhudi's crown?

Huh?
I just... Um...

I was bringing it to him

So he didn't forget
to take it home.

Thanks, dilash.

At least I can trust
someone here.

ms. Strich:
und... Scene!

Oh! Splendid rehearsal,
tout le monde!

Now, sleep well.

oh! Tomorrow is opening night!

Gee, I better take
my crown home

Where no one can "steal" it,
right? [Laughs]

Dilash:
what do we do now, uncle?

Crocodylus:
we'll steal the crown
and hide it

Just before the curtain opens.

Rhino runt will be in
such trouble

With his grandparents,

That I'll be able to leap

Right into
the elephant prince role!

[Laughs]

[Crickets chirp]

[Audience murmurs quietly]

Oof!

Babar:
peter pachyderm packed a peck
of peeled peanuts...

Five minutes to curtain!

Rhudi:
hey, you,
better fix that.

Too bad I have to ruin
my looks

With an elephant trunk.

Rhudi: [gasps]
babar: huh?

Rhudi:
grandpa's crown is gone!

Badou, you took it!

Me? I was fixing your little
star stumble back there.

Ms. Strich:
places, everyone!

Rhudi:
I have to have the crown
before the curtain goes up!

Badou, buddy,

You gotta get it back
for me! Please!

[Gasps]

Chiku,
try to slow them down.

I'll cut 'em off!

Crocodylus:
we'll stash the crown
and double back to the stage.

Now it's my turn to be
the elephant prince!

Oof!

Chiku:
whaaooaaaoooaaaa!

Huh?

[Badou trumpets]

Chiku! C'mon!

Crocodylus:
get him!

[Smattering of applause]

Babar:
[snoring]

Lady rataxes:
where's my rhudi?

[Audience gasps,
rhudi whimpers]

The show must go on!

Lord rataxes:
where's my crown?

Chiku:
where are we going, 'bu?

Badou:
the ambassador wanted
to be a star, right?

We're gonna give him
a cha-aaggghhhhhhhh!

yow!

Lord rataxes:
hey! That's my crown!

[Audience gasps,
stunned silent]

You wanted to be on stage,
ambassador?

Let's see how well
you can act.

Oh, great elephant prince!

Huh?

badou:
baron sneak's evil helpers -

Count fangbum
and lord stinkmouth -

Have come to steal
the crown!

Er... Yes!

I, count fangbum, want-

rataxes:
my crown!

Defend my crown!

Save us,
sir knights!

Ungh!

Munroe:
all right!

[Swords clack]

Chiku:
agh! Whoa!

Lord rataxes:
hey! Ha-ha!

Rhudi, say your lines!

I want to hear your lines!

Crocodylus:
[charging cry]
aaaggggghhh-haaaa!

Badou: ungh!
Crocodylus: aaagggghhhhhh!

Lady rataxes:
aggghhhhh!

[Loud clattering crash]

Uh, your highness?

isn't there something
you want to say?

Ho ho...

Ho ho, baron sneak,

It is i,
the elephant prince!

[Cheering]

Applause!

Ah! Now, this is my kind
of play!

Full of action...
And very short!

Ms. Strich:
our play is a hit!

Oh! Take a bow,
mes amis!

Bravo! Brrrrrrav-issimo!

[Groans]
hear that, nephew?

The audience... Loves me!

Uh, thanks for getting
the crown back.

Yes, badou.

You and your friends
saved the crown...

And the play.

No problem, papi.

I was just doing
my part.

Audience:
