02x17 - The Second Temple/Barrel's Warhammer

[bunniefuu]

Hey, look!

- [Sprig] Woolly mantises!
- [roaring]

[all] Whoa, whoa, whoa!
[Polly screams]

[all grunt]

[chirps]

Welcome to the Amphibian
Arctic, everyone!

[all] Whoa!

I triangulated the tracking
beam from the green stone,

and...

[Polly] Hop Pop, move!

Oh! [chuckles]
Sorry.

The second temple must be
right through there.

[wind whistling]

[Anne] Just beyond
these snowy gates,

a grueling,
perilous temple awaits.

Um, no, it doesn't.

[wind whistling]

Hmm. Weird.

Could it be invisible?

All the ancient texts about
this temple were super vague.

They just mentioned
the word "heart" a lot.

Okay. Are we looking for
something heart-shaped?

Maybe we have to rip
someone's heart out.

[Hop Pop, Polly]
Hmm? Hmm?

- [bird caws]
- [screams]

Hey, wait!
I know that crazy bird.

[caws] Bird!

[Sprig] "Valeriana"?

Anne, didn't we meet her
in the Bizarre Bazaar?

Yeah! Oh, and she said she's
been all over Amphibia, right?

Maybe she's seen the temple.

[grunts] Why is she
always out to lunch?

[Valeriana] Because it's the
most important meal of the day!

[all gasp]

It's been a while, creature.

What brings you here?
Do you by chance...

seek a temple to charge
an ancient stone?

Oh, yes! You know
about the stones?

Indeed.

But do you really think
you are worthy?

Well... yeah!
Totally!

We shall see.

Oh, I'm Marcy, btdubs. Uh,
nice to meet you.

And I'm Hop Pop.
Uh, hi.

- Polly here.
- Sure.

I am the last
of an ancient order.

Our purpose was to study
the sacred stones and temples.

Ooh!

So, you know where
the temple is?

Indeed.

And you possess the music box?

Sure do.

After all these years,
it has returned.

I should very much
like to hold it.

Uh, I'd rather hold on to it.

Suit yourself.

To get to the temple,

we must climb the freezing
cliffs of Mount Mutu.

Leave your flimsy jackets and wear
these caterpillar-wool coats instead.

- Ooh!
- So fuzzy!

Since this temple
is my responsibility,

you all must do
exactly as I say.

Or else you can say
goodbye to ever finding it.

Are we clear?

- [all] Clear!
- Clear and comfy.

Good. Follow me.

Something's not right
about this lady.

Huh? Didn't you see how
she looked at the music box?

Plus, she owns a parrot.
Only bad guys own parrots.

That's ridiculous, Anne.

Now, come on, or they'll
leave us behind!

[groans]

[Valeriana]
Quickly, you three!

I'd like to reach the
temple in this century.

How could adventurers so lazy
ever expect to conquer the temple?

[groans] Don't listen
to her, guys.

We're almost there.

[whistling]

[wind howling]

[shrieks]

[all scream] Get away! Get away!

Oh, relax, everyone.
It's just a cardinal.

They don't eat frogs.
She's just saying "hello"!

[squeaks]
[screams]

[gasps] Marcy!

[screams]
[grunts]

[bird caws]
[screams]

You said it doesn't eat frogs!

I-I was sure that... Wait!

Cardinals eat caterpillars.
It wants our coats!

[screaming]

[screams] No! We need
these coats to stay warm.

And look good!
Marcy! What do we do?

Let me think! Let me
think! There's no time!

[grunts]
[bird caws]

Now let's get outta here!

[all grunting]

You saved us, Anne!
Here, take my coat.

No! You frogs will turn
into ice without protection.

I'll be okay as long as
we reach the temple soon.

It won't be soon!

You think it wise that
you abandoned your coat?

Well, I had to do something.

Impulsive and defensive!

Very unworthy qualities,
I must say.

Don't worry,
Anne. We'll huddle around you for warmth.

[squeaks]

[grunting]

Hop Pop, did you gain weight?

It's impolite to ask, Anne.

It's so fortunate
that the music box

fell into such average hands.

How exactly did it come
into your possession?

Uh...
Uh-uh.

You know? I don't
remember how we got it.

[rumbling]

Huh...
What was that?

Nothing much.
Just an avalanche.

[all] What?
Everybody run!

Shush, you loud
little frog baby!

[rumbling]

Whew. Looks like it's
heading away from us.

[Anne] Wait a second.
Look!

What about that little hut?
It looks like someone's inside.

We have to save them!

How? By running
towards an avalanche?

They are lost, child.
I say we press on.

[groans]

Nuts to that!

[all] Anne!

[grunts] Hey! You guys
gotta get outta... Huh?

How is everyone out
to lunch right now?

- [rumbling]
- [grunting]

Anne! We gotcha!

[grunting]

You okay? [pants]
I'm fine. I'm fine.

Let's just hurry
and get to the temple.

[Valeriana] Oh,
that won't be happening.

I've learned all I need
to know about you lot.

Disobedient, foolish, impulsive.

None of these qualities
are worthy of the sacred stones.

You don't deserve my help.

Good luck finding
that temple on your own.

You are full of such frog spit!

[all gasp]

Oh,
come on. You barely even gave us a chance!

Not only that,
now you're gonna strand us out here?

Well, we may be unworthy,
but you and your order are even worse!

You're nothing but a cruel,
judgmental, snob!

[echoes]

Brat!

You dare insult the order I
have dedicated my entire life to?

Yeah? What're you
gonna do about it?

Huh?

Did you guys see that?

Huh? Whoa!

Where are we?

What did you do?

Just show me and my friends
where the temple is already.

Never.
You are not worthy.

In fact, none are worthy!

And now that I
finally have you alone,

I can return the box to
its rightful guardian...

me!

Huh?
[squawks]

Hey, wait! No!

No! I need that
to get home!

[Valeriana]
Aha! See?

Still only thinking of yourself!

You're wrong!
I'm not...

that selfish. [Valeriana] Oh,
no?

Didn't you lie to the Plantars
to get out of a day of work?

[panting] How... How
do you know that? Whoa!

Didn't you drive the family snail
even though you were told not to?

[grunts] Okay. This is getting
weird. What else do you know?

I know that you snore.

Could've kept that one
to yourself.

- Whoa!
- [laughs]

Didn't you steal Hopediah's
wallet for a girls' day on the town?

[grunting]

Okay. That is definitely
not how that happened.

But you did steal the
music box. Did you not?

I... I...
I did steal it.

So it is. You are
a liar and a thief!

And now, the box will be mine!

[laughs]

[screams, grunts]

[laughing]

Why are you laughing?

You can't get back down
the mountain without me.

Ha! You have to save me.

Don't I just wave the stick
up and down to get back?

You weren't supposed to
figure that out! [screams]

[grunts]

[grunts, sighs]

[sighs] You risked
your life to save me?

But why?

You were right.
I did lie and steal.

If that makes me unworthy, fine.

Those bad choices were mine
and I'll own them.

But making them taught me that
it's always better to do the right thing.

So that's what I did,
regardless of how much I didn't want to.

We have been waiting for
someone like you for such a long time.

Um... excuse me?

Whoa, mama.
You clean up nice.

You have sacrificed
your warmth for your friends,

your safety for
a stranger in need.

You even risked your life
for an enemy.

But empathy alone isn't enough,
for what is heart without responsibility?

In the name of the temple,

I declare you worthy.

Wait! No way! So the cardinal,
the avalanche...

- All this was...
- A trial.

You see, we've been making our way
through the "temple" this whole time.

And I have been testing you.

[squawks]
Testing you!

[clears throat]
So, what is it you want?

Oh,
right. To charge the stone and return home!

So be it!

[grunts]

[beeping]

It's a lot slower
than last time.

Sorry. This thing's
pretty old.

Ah! No, no, no.
I get it. No problem.

Do you want, uh,
something to read or...

Seriously, it's fine.
[Plantars screaming]

Oh, no! They're in trouble.
What if it's another avalanche?

Uh, that looks charged enough.
Let's go!

Send me back! Send me back!
Send me back! Send me back!

[wind howling]

Send me back! Oh!

[screaming]
Hang on, guys!

I got you! Huh?

Anne!

Marcy is showing us ridiculously
cute animal videos on her phone.

We looked for you,
but now we're taking a break.

Anne, you're all right.

And that's not all, fam.

Wha-pow!

[all] Ooh!
Whoo!

But how?
I'll explain later.

But for now,
can we please get out of this cold?

[laughs]
Yeah!

Way to go, Anne!
Way to go!

[Polly] Anne!

Maybe Frobo can make us
hot chocolate when we get back.

- Ooh!
- [Polly] Yay!

- [Sprig] Yes!
- [Anne] That sounds great.
