Begin.

Delete:
watch it, buzzy!
You're on my nose!

Buzz:
shhh! Zip it, dee dee!
Dragons don't talk!

Hacker:
are you two in position yet?

Buzz:
yeah, boss! We're all set.

Then get him... Now!

Master pi:
is there a problem?

Buzz:
yeah! I want my piece of pi!

Delete:
yeah! You're comin' with us!

Master pi:
no v*olence.
What will be, will be.

Hacker:
finally, my day of revenge
has arrived!

In a matter of moments

I will ruin your silly little
sanctuary, mister master!

Revenge is like a boomerang.

While it flies in the direction
thrown

It returns even faster.

Uh! Save your boomerang,
pi-face!

When I'm done here,
shangri-la

Will be the most disgusting
site in cyberspace!

If you spare shangri-la

You can have this golden
droplet.

Delete:
ohhhh! Pretty! Take it, boss!

Buzz:
yeah, yeah, take it!

Why would I want that?

This droplet has
the power to please

By reflecting peace and harmony

Or by removing it from
the vial,

To provide unlimited wealth.

Unlimited wealth?

Now we're talking!

Master pi:
then we have an understanding?

Hacker:
what I have is you
and this golden drop!

Put him inside the wreaker!
And keep this safe!

Buzz:
whoa! I wanna carry it!

Delete:
no, me! Me!

Hacker:
no one move or you'll never
see master pi again!

That's better.

Next! To the business
of wrecking this place.

Where is that thing you call
the good vibration--

The source of peace and harmony
which makes this place so...

Ugh... Beautiful?

Matt:
give it up, hacker!

Hacker:
oh, look who's come to the
rescue, the goody-goody g*ng!

Inez:
you're not going to destroy
shangri-la!

Release master pi now!

Hacker:
you must be joking!

Get them!

Red warrior:
we must do as he says.

Hey! I thought we were friends!

Uh, I think "were"
is the key word here.

Run!

Hacker:
ha-ha-ha!

Oh, it's good to be master!

Delete:
look at how it sparkles!

It's the most beautiful
thing I've ever seen!

Buzz:
forget that, dee dee.
It's gonna make us rich!

You heard what master pi said

All we gotta do is take it out
of here

For some big time bucks!

Delete:
yeah?

What you want most may not
be the wisest choice.

Delete:
what's that supposed to mean?

Buzz:
who knows? Who cares!

Master pi:
eons ago, a young warrior
failed to heed my warning.

He chose wealth
instead of peace.

The droplet is still here,
the young warrior is not.

Well, you know what pi?

We're gonna do what we want,
right dee dee?

Right, buzzy!
And we wanna be rich!

Buzz:
make that... Double rich!

(Laughter)

Matt:
great. A dead-end!

Jackie:
oh no! There's no way out!
We're trapped!

Inez:
let's go back the other way.

I don't think so!

What are we going to do?

Jackie:
what was that?

Digit:
the orange stump's growing!

Inez:
so is the green one!

Matt:
cool! If they keep growing,

We can ride 'em all the way up
to the top and get away!

Digit:
but which one do we get on?

The green one
or the orange one?

The one that's faster!

Digit:
how do we figure that out?

Inez:
look, these marks are in even
layers, like a ruler!

We can count how many layers
each stump grows

In the same period of time!

Jackie:
I get it. You count time,
I'll count the layers!

Okay.

Jackie:
ready? Now!

Inez:
one cyberspace...
Two cyberspace...

Jackie:
the orange stump grew one layer
in two seconds!

Matt:
but, the green stump grew
two layers in the same time.

Inez:
that's twice as fast!

Digit:
the green express is now
leaving the station!

Matt:
first floor: toys, computers.

Second floor:
shoes, raincoats...

Jackie:
matt, cut it out!
This is serious!

Digit:
they're catching up to us!

Inez:
no way! Both stumps are growing
at a steady rate,

But ours is growing faster!

Matt:
inez is right!

We're ahead
and we're going to stay ahead!

Looks like there's about thirty
more layers to go

And at one layer each second

We'll be safe in about thirty
seconds.

Whoa.

Inez!

Ahh!

Jackie:
matt!

Digit:
jackie!

Yoikes!

All:
help!

Inez:
this is not good.
This is not good at all!

Jackie:
we're almost to the top!

Digit:
good! 'Cause I can't hang on
much longer!

Kids:
ahh!

Matt:
we're safe!

Digit:
uh, can I get a little
help here?

Inez:
uh! I hate to tell you this,
didge, but it won't budge.

Your prop is sh*t.

Oh, the price of being a hero!

Jackie:
let's go!

We've got to rescue master pi!

Hacker:
how touching!

Kids:
hacker!

Buzz:
hey, look at that!

Now we got four drops!

Delete:
buzzy, it's happening again!

Buzz:
what, what, what?

Master pi:
the droplets... Are doubling!

The number will continue
to grow

At a rate that will
astonish you.

You know what that means,
dee dee?

Yeah! We gotta get a bigger
cup!

Hacker:
last stop, children!

Your new home away from home.

Matt:
man, look at all that swirling
water!

Red warrior:
I'm afraid there is no escape
from this island.

Inez:
you can't leave us here...
You just can't!

Jackie:
we have to save master pi!

As long as the hacker has
master pi,

I must do as he commands.

Hacker:
how true. How true.

Finally, you tiny tots will
be out of my hair forever!

Speaking of hair, hacker,

That's the worst wig
I've ever seen!

Jackie:
digit!

Digit:
I wouldn't put that rug
on my floor!

Knock it off!

With pleasure!

Hacker:
uh! My hair!

I need my wig. Get it!

Matt:
now's our chance!

You've got to let us go!

That's not possible.

Hacker:
hurry! Before it shrinks!

Inez:
at least tell us if there's
a way off this island!

Jackie:
we've got to rescue master pi!

Hacker:
got it!

Red warrior:
the tree will help thee.

Hacker:
let's go, red.

We're leaving!

Red warrior:
the good vibration is the
source of our peace and harmony

Do not let hacker get it!
Save the master!

Buzz:
uh, dee dee!
They're gonna double again!

Delete:
oh, here.

This ought to hold 'em!

Buzz:
whew! Who knew being rich
was such hard work?

Matt:
what are we going to do?

You heard the red warrior.

We can't let hacker get
the good vibration!

Jackie:
make room, I gotta pace!

Even if I could swim,

There's no getting past all
those whirlpools.

We need a plan.

Inez:
maybe we can build a boat
from this tree.

Matt:
the tree...

The red warrior said,
the tree can help thee.

But how?

How can this tree help us?

What's so important
about this tree?

Jackie:
(gasp) a secret door!

Inez:
a catastrophe kit!

A catastrophe kit?

Yeah!

This must be what the red
warrior wanted us to find!

The way off this island
must be in here!

Look!

Inez:
what? A way out?

Cookies! I'm starving!

Girls:
matt!

Sorry.

Flashlight, tent,
sunscreen, lily pad!

Kids:
a lily pad?

A lily pad bridge.

Digit:
that doesn't look
like a bridge to me!

It says... To add water?

Matt:
hey! Now there are two!

Inez:
it doubled!

Jackie:
don't get too excited, guys.

It's still a long way across.

Let's see.

To reach all the way across...

The skwak says we'll need about
lily pads,

Just like this one.

Lily pads!

It'll take all day
to grow a bridge that long!

Shangri-la is totally doomed!

Hey! Now there are four!

Jackie:
okay, so maybe it's not totally
doomed.

We only need more
lily pads.

It's doin' it again!

Four doubled... Is eight!

Now we've got eight lily pads!

Inez:
one, two, four, eight...

Hey, there's a pattern here.

Matt:
now there's sixteen!
The lily pads are doubling!

Inez:
how many doublings will it take
to reach lily pads?

We're at now...
Doubled is ...

Doubled is ...

Doubled is !

In three more doublings
we'll have lily pads!

Jackie:
just what we need to get
across!

Digit:
thirty-two lily pads.
Right on schedule!

Matt:
come on!

Another double!
Sixty four lily pads!

Only one more doubling!
C'mon, c'mon, double!

Matt:
one hundred twenty-eight
lily pads to the end!

We're good to go!

Matt:
look out! Whirlpool!

Kids:
yeowwww!

Hold on!

Matt:
wha-hoo! This is awesome!

I think I'm gonna be sick!

Jackie:
ah-ah-ah-ah...

Whoaaa!

Matt:
I've always wanted
to hang glide.

Inez:
I haven't!

Tell me when it's over!

Delete:
good thing the boss uses
a lotta wig gel!

Buzz:
you know what I'm thinkin',
dee dee?

Delete:
we need a bigger pot?

Buzz:
no. No. No, I'm thinkin' maybe
we don't need the boss anymore!

Yeah! If this gold keeps
on doubling,

We can afford to sack the hack!

Buzz:
what do you think, pi man?

You need a bigger pot.

Buzz:
we're rich! Richer than rich!

Delete:
hahahhahahahhaa!

Hacker:
at last! I found the good
vibration!

Ha! And now to destroy it!

How do I get up there?

There is but one way,
the staircase of la.

Where is it?
I don't see any staircase!

Kids:
whoo-hoo! Ahhh!

Whoo-ha! Yeah!

Those miserable mites escaped!

How could they!

Show me that staircase now!
Or say good-bye to pi!

I-i don't understand.

It's not working.

Ah! I'll do it!

Red warrior:
what have you done?

Hacker:
two staircases?

It is the way of the la...
Sort of.

I'll ride the big ones!
That's the way of the hacker!

It's hacker!

Matt:
and he's going after
the good vibration!

Jackie:
we've got to stop him!

Hacker:
you are too late, kiddies!
(Laughter)

Digit:
pull the plug, red!
Stop the stairs!

Hacker has damaged
the mechanism.

The progress of the stairs
cannot be halted.

Inez:
we'll ride this other
staircase!

No fair! Hacker's steps
are way bigger!

We don't have a choice, jax!
C'mon!

It won't be long before
shangri-la

Is a pit of ugliness
and despair!

Toodle-loo!

Digit:
our steps are so much smaller,

We'll never catch up to him!

(Taunting laughter)

Buzz:
yes, I wish to order five
hundred cases

Of your finest donuts.

Delete:
wheeee...

Master pi gave us a gold mine!

Make that five thousand cases!

Jackie:
here we go again!

Digit:
wait a minute!

These steps go higher
than the last ones!

You're right! We went up four
steps this time, not two!

Matt:
c'mon, inez, up you go!

Inez:
your turn!

Inez:
guys! Remember how the lily
pads doubled and grew so fast?

Jackie:
yeah.

Inez:
well, I think our steps
are doubling, too!

See? Hacker's big steps are
increasing at a steady rate,

One more each time.

One, two, three, four...

But look at our steps--
one, two, four, eight...

Even though our steps
are smaller,

They're doubling each time!

Jackie:
so our next step should be
eight doubled or sixteen!

We pick up eight steps!

And since hacker's keep going
up at a steady rate

He'll only pick up one.

Jackie:
man, doubling is so much
faster!

Oh, no!

If we do get sixteen
it'll be too high to climb!

Matt:
no problem!

Digit:
here come the steps!

Matt:
get ready...

Kids:
now!

Jackie:
sixteen! It did double!

Digit:
we're gonna catch you, hacker!

Hacker:
you couldn't catch a cold!
(Laughter)

Jackie:
how many stairs do we get next?

Inez:
well, sixteen doubled is...

Digit:
thirty-two!

That could take us all the way
to the top!

Kids and digit:
now!

Jackie:
bye-bye, bad guy!

What?

Matt:
whatever happens, we can't let
hacker get the good vibration

And ruin shangri-la!

The question is, when I get my
hands on the good vibration

Should I simply smash it
to bits

Or push it over the side?

Grrr...

Digit:
yoikes!

Jackie:
move out of the way!

Ahhhhh!

Digit:
you were saying?

Hacker:
okay! I'll be nice!

You can keep your good
vibration.

I don't want it.
I was just kidding!

Ah-ha. Just in time.

Hahahaha!

Bye-bye, kiddies!

Buzz:
look what we got, boss!

Delete:
yeah, we're rich! We're rich!

You're right, we're rich!

Who needs that ridiculous
tuning fork

When we have all this?

Master pi:
beware.

Too much of a good thing
is too much of a good thing!

Buzz:
you hear somethin', boss?

Matt:
take cover!

Hacker:
let's get out of here!

Kids:
master pi! Master pi!

Well done, children.

You saved the good vibration
and shangri-la!

Ah, you think maybe you could
fix my propeller?

Of course, my feathered friend.

But first, I must reverse
the golden droplets

Or they will double forever.

Inez:
hey, they're doubling
in reverse!

Kids:
sixteen! Eight! Four! Two! One!

Master pi:
ha ha haaa.

All is well in shangri-la!
