02x10 - Horville's Hut of Horrors/The Tragic Flute

Post by bunniefuu »

(OPENING THEME SONG PLAYING)

Ewoks!

We're the Ewoks, raggedy Ewoks

Living in the tall trees
Living in the spiral

Dancing in the forest
On the moon of Endor

Ewoks all together
And we're having fun

Friends together
Friends forever

Ewoks!

We're careless little Ewoks
We like adventure

Helping friends in danger
Out in the forest

Sharing in the magic
On the moon of Endor

Ewoks all together
And we're having fun

Friends together
Friends forever

Ewoks!

We're the Ewoks, yeah!

WICKET: This is my favorite season.

The carnival's here and the warriors'
overnight trip is coming up.

-Here are your sunberries, Mom.
-Thanks, honey drop.

I can always use more berries
at carnival time.

Your pies always take first prize, Shodu.

Yeah. Now if you don't have
anything else for us to do...

SHODU: Actually, there is one more thing.

While I'm busy with my pies,

I'd like you to take Winda
to see the Tumble Bunnies show.

(BABBLING)

Tumble Bunnies? But they're for woklings.

All your friends are taking
their little brothers and sisters.

Besides, if you do a good job,

I might just let you go on the warriors'
overnight trip with your brothers.

Ee Chee Wa Wa!

Come on, Winda.
Let's go see the, ugh, Tumble Bunnies.

Who knows?

Maybe the Tumble Bunnies
won't be all that bad.

Hi, kiddies.

The Tumble Bunnies are jumping for joy

'cause you've come to see their show.

(ALL LAUGHING)

Oh, kvark! This is no place
for a warrior to be seen.

Oof!

Let me guess. The Tumble Bunnies, right?

Right.

Come on, guys. It'll be a great show.

Tumble Bunnies? Ugh!

Hey, now there's the show we should see.

KNEESAA: Horville's Hut of Horrors!

Come on, guys.

I don't know, Wicket.
It looks really scary.

Scary? What's to be scared about?

Welcome.

(ALL SCREAM)

So, you're seeking excitement and horror?

Well, you've come to the right place.

I'm Horville
and this is my Hut of Horrors.

Come on. We'll miss the Tumble Bunnies.

Hang on, Kneesaa.
This is sort of interesting.

Step up, brave Ewoks,

and see what's inside.

Garth, the snake eater.

(ALL GASP)

The hideous and bloodcurdling Ploob.

(SNARLING)

(ALL GASP)

No!

And Bilbob the Mystic,

who knows your future.

Ooooo...

No! Tumble Bunnies!

That looks so fake
it could actually be fun.

-Let's go in.
-Wicket,

remember what your mom said.

Okay, we'll put it to a vote.

All those who want to see the dull,
boring Tumble Bunnies, raise your hands.

-We do.
-Tumble Bunnies.

And now who wants to see the fun,
thrilling Hut of Horrors?

-Yeah.
-It's the Hut of Horrors by a landslide.

Wicket!

WICKET: Kneesaa, I personally guarantee
the woklings will have a great time.

This way, Ewoks. To the Hut of Horrors.

(EERIE MUSIC PLAYING)

Hey, where does that music
keep coming from?

(EERIE MUSIC PLAYING)

But Wicket, this isn't the Tumble Bunnies.

Malani, this is better
than the Tumble Bunnies.

(HORVILLE CHORTLING)

(ALL SCREAMING)

Goodbye, Ewok.

Tell all your friends
about Horville's Hut of Horrors.

(EERIE MUSIC PLAYING)

Uh, good show, huh?

Oh, yeah! Great. Wonderful.

Liked it a lot.

-Uh, want to see it again?
-No!

(WOKLINGS CRYING)

Shh. Don't cry now.

I told you it would be too scary
for the woklings.

Oh, our folks will k*ll us

when they find out
we took them to the Hut of Horrors.

My mom will ground me for a week.

And I can kiss
the warriors' overnight trip goodbye.

Hey, that's it!

We'll have a sleepover at my hut tonight
for all the woklings.

They'll have so much fun
they'll forget all about the scary show.

(WOKLINGS CONTINUE CRYING)

They won't calm down
and your mom will be home any minute.

We'll have to tell her the truth, Wicket.

No way.

Uh, now, Teebo is going
to put on a magic show.

-I am?
-Go on, cheer them up.

Oh. Uh, yeah.

Okay, watch this.

I'll turn these pebbles
into sugar leaf taffy.

Oh, yuck.

Gee, Teebo sure looks funny.

He looks just like
Garth, the snake eater, at the...

Hut of Horrors!

(WOKLINGS RESUME CRYING)

What's going on in here?

We're having a sleepover, Mom.

The woklings were just crying

for more of your sunberry pie.

Hey, I noticed that old carnival's
back again. (LAUGHING)

Remember when Willy was only a wokling

and I dragged him off to see
Horville's Hut of Horrors?

(WOKLINGS CRYING)

(SCOFFS) You were so scared
you couldn't sleep for a week.

I thought poor Willy
would never get over his nightmares.

-Nightmares?
-You better come clean, Wicket.

Shodu's bound to find out if the woklings
start crying in their sleep.

And miss the warriors' overnight?

I'll find a way out of this somehow.

ALL: Good night, Shodu.
WICKET: Good night, Mom.

Good night, everyone.

Now, you're sure this will work, Teebo?

Well, according to Master Logray's scroll,

this magic device will suck bad dreams
out of the night air

and let the woklings sleep in peace.

And just where does it suck
these bad dreams to?

Uh... Somewhere.

See, what'd I tell ya? No problem.

I hope you're right, Wicket.

No. Hut of Horrors.

Too scary, too scary!

There he goes. Get him.

No! Stay away.

(SCREAMING)

Now, Wicket.
You should always tell the truth.

(CACKLING)

Hey! Help me, you guys.

(ALL LAUGHING)

(WICKET SCREAMING)

No!

You are doomed.

Doomed for scaring your little sister.

You will never set foot
out of this house again.

(LAUGHING)

No, Mom. Wait!

No, no, no, no!

-No, no, no!
-Wicket?

Wicket, honey. Wake up!

(SCREAMS)

-Mom!
-You were having a nightmare, honey.

A nightmare, huh?

(WOKLINGS GIGGLING)

Mom, I took the woklings
to the Hut of Horrors

instead of the Tumble Bunnies show,

and I'm really sorry.

Oh! No wonder you had nightmares.

But I'm glad you told me the truth.

Can I still go
on the warriors' overnight today?

You can go on the next one.

Today you're going to be busy.

(GULPS)

Gee! These Tumble Bunnies
aren't so bad after all.

I don't think Wicket
would share that feeling, Teebo.

Oh...

Five shows down, five more to go.

Oh, kvark!

Too bad you can't rest
your feet, Baga. Ah!

(GASPS) My new ankle bracelet!

Oh, Baga! What am I gonna do?

(BAGA BRAYING)

(KNEESAA GASPS)

Is something wrong?

Uh... Uh... Yes. My ankle bracelet.

It slipped off.

Is this it?

No. But it's very beautiful.

How about this one?

No. That's not it either.

It's not this one, is it?

Yes, yes. That's it!

-Oh, thank you.
-You're welcome.

And because you've been so honest

and you didn't take what wasn't yours,

I'm giving you all three.

(GASPS)

-Thank you.
-Good day.

Wait till everyone sees these.

Mmm-hmm.

And then he just disappeared
under the water.

Sounds a bit fishy to me. (LAUGHS)

Get it. Fishy.

Oh, Kneesaa!

They're just gorgeous.

Whoa!

You know, I could sure use a few things
from that tide pool,

including a new flute.

But Latara, we gave that flute to you.

Yeah, I carved most of it myself.

I can see that.

Well, been fun. Gotta go. Bye.

Well, how do you like that?

We better follow her.

Knowing Latara,
she could get into real trouble.

This must be the place.

(HUMMING)

Oops! I dropped my flute.

Hmph.

I said I dropped my flute.

Where is that guy?

(GASPS)

Is something wrong?

Uh, yes.

I dropped my favorite flute
into the water.

Hmm.

Is this it?

Ee Chee Wa Wa! Uh, that could be it.

I'm just not sure.

Hmm. How about this one?

Whoa, honey!

Uh, what else have
you got down there?

Hmm. Is this your flute?

Hey, now I remember. They're all mine.

I lost them all.
Especially the one with the jewels.

You're sure?

Yeah. Hand 'em over, quick. All three.

The jeweled one, the gold one,
you know the ones I'm talking about. Yeah.

(GASPS)

No! Hey, put me down.

Help!

This is how I deal with greedy creatures.

Greedy? Wait a minute. I could be wrong.

Maybe they weren't all mine. (SCREAMS)

Help, help!

-No.
-Latara?

Ee Chee Wa Wa! We gotta get help.

There's no time.
We've got to go after her.

I know.

I'll get a big water creature
to take us below.

(BURBLING INDISTINCTLY)

There.

Teebo!

(GASPS) Yow!

Hi.

ALL: Huh?

You need some help?

Oh, uh, thanks, but we were
expecting someone a bit larger.

How's this?

Oh, please.
Our friend has been taken underwater

in the shell of some big sea creature.

Hmm. Sounds like King Elbo to me.

-King Elbo?
-Yes.

He tests creatures
for greediness and honesty.

If they fail,
he takes them to his coral castle

at the bottom of the sea.

(GASPS) Oh, poor Latara.

She'd never pass a test like that.

We've got to save her.

But first, we got to get
to the bottom of the sea.

Stand back.

All aboard.

Not bad. A sea bubble.

Is it safe?

As long as you don't hit anything sharp.

(GULPS)

(GRUNTS)

Good luck.

ALL: Ooh! Ah!

KNEESAA: Look at that.

They're so graceful.

There it is. The coral castle.

ALL: Whoa!

Uh-oh!

-We've got a leak.
-Whoa!

Nothing to it.

KNEESAA: Whoa! Whoa!

We're gonna crash.

ALL: Whoa!

ALL: Kvark!

Well, we're here.

Latara!

(ALL GASP)

-Latara?
-Am I glad to see you.

Quick. Get me out of here.

King Elbo will be back any minute.

WICKET: Whoa!

I'll draw his fire. You get Latara out.

-Got it.
-Over here.

Ha-ha. Missed me. Try again.

Now, Latara.

This stupid tail.

I've got you, Latara.

-Teebo!
-Come on. Let's go.

Quick.

Please get this tail off me.

Pull.

ALL: Whoa!

Hurry. There's no time to rest.

Rest?

LATARA: We've got to
find a way out of here.

How about this way?

(ELBO LAUGHING)

-Uh, how about that way?
-Come back here.

(ALL EXCLAIMING IN EWOKESE)

Oh, no!

Oh, no.

-We're trapped.
-(ELBO LAUGHS) You're right.

WICKET: Now, take it easy, King Elbo.

We're just trying to save our friend.

I know, but once someone has lied to me,

they're my prisoner forever.

(GASPS)

Oh, please.
I'll do anything to get her back.

Here. I'll return these if you let her go.

Well, since you care so much
for your friend,

I'll set up a test.

If she passes, she may go free.

But if she fails, I get all of you.

Okay?

(ALL GULP)

-Sure.
-Okay.

-All right.
-You bet.

Oh, boy!

As we speak,

your friend is walking through a chamber
filled with unspeakable riches.

Her test is to find the most valuable item
and bring it to me.

But if she brings me the wrong one...

(ALL GASP)

(CHUCKLES) I think you get the point.

The most valuable?
Everything looks valuable.

This is nice.

And this! And this!

Teebo, we can't count on Latara.

Use your magic to get us out of here.

Right. A-ha!

Whoops.

EWOKS: Whoa!

Uh, that's good enough, Teebo.

Ooh, now this is valuable.

Ee Chee Wa Wa! What about these?

How did this ugly thing get here?

But Latara, we gave that flute to you.

Yeah, I carved most of it myself.

I can see that.

Oh. I think I understand.

(EWOKS SCREAMING)

LATARA: Stop everything! I've got it!

My flute is the most valuable thing
because my friends gave it to me.

Yes. That's right.

-You did it, Latara.
-Thanks, Teebo.

I guess we all learned something today.

I sure did.

My friends are the most
valuable things in the world.

Good. You may go now.

I'll just call our little fish friend back
and he'll give us a ride to shore.

(BURBLING)

That little fish sure likes big entrances.

ALL: Whoa!

This must be his cousin, Tiny.

Come on, everyone. Let's go home.

Good bye, King Elbo.

I'm just curious.

What are you going to do
with those other flutes?

-Latara!
-LATARA: Never mind.
