[SHADOW GROWLS
THEN COURAGE SCREAMS]

Abandoned as a pup...

...he was found by Muriel,
who lives in the middle of Nowhere...

...with her husband Eustace Bagge.

[GRUNTS]

ANNOUNCER'.
But creepy stuff happens in Nowhere.

It's up to Courage to save his new home.

[SCREAMING]

Stupid dag! You made me lack bad.

[EUSTACE YELLING
THEN COURAGE SCREAMING]

[DISCO MUSIC PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]

Come on, baby

Na.

[SWEEPING]

[MUMMY GROANING]

[SCREAMING]

[HUMMING]

Religious ceremonies were held
in great temples like this one...

...a huge and beautiful structure.

Stupid house.

Did you fold my sheet nice?

I lave my sheet.

Fold like it a flag.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Get the dour, dag.

[GRUNTS]

And keep folding that sheet right.

[GROANING]

[GROANING]

[SHOUTING]

[SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

Stupid dag.

You covered a stranger with my sheet.

This should make you feel better, Mr. Frith.

New tell us what happened to you,
you pear man.

What's happened ta me isn't important.

What's important
is what might happen ta you...

...and what happened
thousands of years ago.

The clothing in this sack tells the story.

This belonged to a Mayan princess
a long time ago.

The princess loved cookies.

Each day, the royal baker would whip up
a jar full of cookies for the princess.

The cookie jar was brought to the princess
by her most trusted royal pooh-bah.

And before he would give the cookies...

...the greedy pooh-bah would steal cookies
from the jar and sell them for his own profit.

One day, the baker caught the pooh-bah
and went to tell the princess.

But the pooh-bah got to her first.

The pooh-bah presented the princess
with cookie jars that were only half full...

...and said the baker
was stealing the missing cookies.

The princess was outraged...

...and ordered the baker
to have his mouth sewn shut...

...his eyebrows plucked
and his body mummified.

Mast unpleasant. Ha, ha.

That baker is new a centuries-old mummy.

And he's risen.

- Aah!
- And he's seeking revenge.

[SCREECHES]

And he's an his way to this very spat
at this very moment.

[SCREAMING]

Why here? Why us?

Here is an ancient drawing of the princess
and the pooh-bah.

[EUSTACE E MURIEL GASPING]

MURIEL:
They lack just like we do.

I think I'll take a nap now.

[GROANS]

[GRUNTING]

MAN [OVER COMPUTER]:
If your mommy's coming...

...and she's mad at you,
give her ?owers, you (wit.

Ah. A mummy. That's much worse.

Maybe Muriel and the farmer...

...were the Mayan princess and royal pooh-bah
in past lives.

If that's so,
the solution to your angry mummy...

...might be found
in past-life regression hypnosis.

[HOWLING]

[SIRENS WAILING]

MAN:
Okay, everyone out.

[GROANING]

Okay.

EUSTACE:
Stupid dag.

Dressing us up as stupid pooh-bahs.

Ain't no such thing as past lives.

Anyways, I can't be hypnotized.

Uh-uh. Can't be hypnotized.

I can't be hyp-- Huh?

[GRUMBLING INDISTINCTLY]

Huh?

[GRUMBLING INDISTINCTLY]

Told you, can't be hypnotized.

After we jumped from the plane, I told him,
"if you forgot to pack your parachute...

...that's your problem,
and don't you land on me." But he did.

We brake our legs and wound up
in the same hospital, fell in lave...

...then we gut married
in the middle of a jump.

And did you know that sky diving
is good for your gums...

"because it is,
and it's good for other things too.

Here, my princess,
is your daily supply of royal cookies.

Thank you, mast trusted royal pooh-bah.

Oh, these smell heavenly.
My compliments ta the royal baker.

Yeah, yeah, compliments, sure.

Hmm.

Something wrung, Your Princessness?

There seems to be some cookies
missing from the royal cookie jar.

Royal pooh-bah...

...do you know who could be responsible
for such a terrible crime?

Ain't me. Gut any sugar cane?

[WHISTLING]

[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]

Hey, want a ride?

[GROANS]

Well, get in, foal.

[ENGINE REVVING]

Of course, I believe you, trusted pooh-bah.

But then, who is stealing my cookies?

I'm working an it.

Gut more sugar cane?

Royal servant, fetch my mast trusted pooh-bah
more sugar cane.

Huh?

[GROANING]

Fan harder, royal servant.

[PANTING]

Fan harder, royal servant.

[BARKING]

[GROANING]

[SCREAMING]

It's the royal baker.

Haw goes the royal baking, baker?

[GROANING]

[SHOUTING]

[COURAGE SCREAMING]

He did it. The baker stale the royal cookies.

The baker? What proof do you have?

[CONTINUES GROANING]

[LAUGHING]

Told you I was working an it.

Oh, my.
Then we have to mummify the royal baker.

[BARKING]

Huh?

Oh, my.
Then we have to mummify the pooh-bah.

The baker is trying to confuse you.

He's guilty, and the royal servant
must be in cahoots with him.

[SCREAMS]

[CONTINUES GROANING]

Huh?

[WHIMPERING]

Yeah, I gut what you're lacking for, all right.

I gut it right here.

[GRUMBLING INDISTINCTLY]

It was you all along,
no-longer-trusted pooh-bah.

I order your lips sewn shut,
your eyebrows plucked...

...and the rest of you mummified.

[SCREAMING]

Sorry, royal baker. I goofed.

You're exonerated cf the crimes
cf which you are accused.

[MUMMY GROANING]

Ooh!

[SlGHS]

Haw can I ever make it up to you?

Hmm.

I'm telling you, I just can't be hypnotized.

These are from an old Mayan recipe
I never knew I knew.

[ensues]

[FRITH GROANING]

If you don't like them,
you don't have to eat them.

Wasn't me.

FRITH:
Dc I smell cookies?

[FRITH GROANING]

Ah. I needed that nap.

Did I miss anything?

Oh, no, not really.

The mummy's been and gone,
gone to a peaceful eternal rest.

He's really not such a bad fellow.

A little musty, perhaps.

He stank. Give me more cookies.

He was lacking a mite chilly
in those old rags, though...

...so I gave him a nice clean sheet
to wrap himself in.

Sheet? Which sheet?

The polka-dotted one.

[CRYING]

That's my favorite sheet.

Na way that mummy's gonna get it.

[SNORING]

EUSTACE:
You lousy, sheet-stealing mummy.

Give me back my sheet.

[EUSTACE GROANING]

I want my sheet. Give me back my sheet.

Courage. Oh, haw lovely.

The rack has rolled.

Big Bay's gone bye-bye.

MAN 2:

MAN 2:

Dinner's ready.

[SCREAMING]

MAN 2: Here are your orders

...and anyone who has warn it.

MAN 1: How will we know

MAN 2:
You won't be able to see them.

MAN 1: Sc whoever isn't there...
MAN 2: Bring here.

[MURIEL HUMMING]

[GASPS]

MURIEL: Courage, I made you a sandwich
with my special, secret, blue-ribbon dag fund...

...just the way you like it.

I just know I'll win the contest
with this batch.

[WHIMPERING]

Mm, mm, mm.

Muriel, close your mouth when you chew.

[GRUMBLING INDISTINCTLY]

You should immediately remove the stone
from the invisible one.

[SHOUTS]

[GRUMBLING INDISTINCTLY]

Still invisible? What is up with that?

[COURAGE CONTINUES
GRUMBLING INDISTINCTLY]

You bring me the stone,
and I'll run some tests. Ow!

And, dag, bring me a bandage.

[HELICOPTER APPROACHING]

Huh?

[BARKING THEN SCREAMING]

[GASPS]

[WATCH BEEPING]

[GASPS]

MURIEL: Oh, my.
- Oh, no.

[MURIEL SCREAMING]

[HOWLING]

Don't worry, kid. Federal agent.
Your mother's working for us now.

Stay in school, sleep often,
and practice good hygiene.

Told you it was an ugly rack.

MAN 1:
You gather, but you didn't get the stone.

MAN 2:
I thought the stone was invisible.

MAN 1:
The stone just makes you invisible, idiot.

Just track the stone and get it.

MURIEL: If it's my secret, blue-ribbon
dag-fund recipe you're wanting...

...then you should know, I'm not talking.

Ugly rack, ain't it?

VINDALOO:
If I am to find the antidote...

"someone has to put the thing an
and disappear.

My tests show the stone
doesn't work on dogs.

I don't know why. It just doesn't.

Stupid dag.

Stupid ugly rack.

This will take some time.

Dag, go sniffing around
for the invisible one.

By the time you find her,
I hope I have the antidote.

[SNIFFING]

MAN 1: Give it up, lady.
We want it, and we want it now.

MURIEL: I don't care haw badly you want to win
that dag-fund contest...

...I'm not talking.

Good, good.
You have become invisible very well.

Yeah, thanks a heap.

Okay, antidote test number one.

[EUSTACE SCREAMING]

Wonderful show, but no antidote.

MAN 1: Knack, knack.
MURIEL: Who's there?

MAN 1: You'll find out when you tell us
what we want to know.

MURIEL:
You're a cruel man, you are.

[EUSTACE GRUNTING]

[GRUMBLING]

Okay, lunch break.

EUSTACE:
Stupid dag fond.

Must have gotten the sandwiches mixed up.

What did you say was in that sandwich?

Lousy stinking dag fond.

That is the antidote.
Lousy stinking dag fond.

[SNIFFING]

[GASPS]

Huh?

MURIEL: Okay, okay,
the secret ingredient is vinegar.

I put vinegar in the dag fond.

I use it in all my cocking.

I hope you're satisfied.

You know, it's not bad.

[BARKING]

[COURAGE GRUMBLING INDISTINCTLY]

That's very funny. I've never noticed that.

You are lucky, dag.

Through my extraordinary powers
of deduction...

...I have found the antidote
to the invisibility stone.

Lousy stinking dag fond.

Tang'!-

Well, new we have to get the antidote
to your Muriel.

One of us has to get invisible. Again.

Beats eating dag fond.

- And this time, without clothes.
- Why?

- That lack add to you?
- Uh, nape. Ha. Nope. Heh.

EUSTACE:
"Secret invisibility testing."

Big deal.

"Secret gold storage." Works for me.

[GRUMBLING INDISTINCTLY]

EUSTACE:
Shut up.

Gold!

I'm rich. Ha, ha. I'm rich.

MAN:
That's the invisible lady's dag.

He knows where the stone is.

- Aah!
MAN: And new he's running away.

You can't hide that stone from us.

[SCREAMS]

Courage, how lovely that you dropped by.

And you brought my special secret-recipe
blue-ribbon dag fond.

Don't show it to anyone official lacking.

MAN:
I don't see any dag or invisible lady.

Perplexing.

I'll tell the general.

You get the visible lady
with the oddly protruding apron out of here.

MAN 1:
The invisibility stone is last forever.

I guess we can mark the case closed.

New let's get back ta the patriotic work
of making statues out of gold.

[EUSTACE LAUGHING]

[EUSTACE SHOUTING]

Sc I wan the dag-fund contest after all.

It just goes to show you, Courage,
you always get what you deserve.

Mm-hm.

MAN:
It is with great pride...

...that I dedicate this great statue
ta our great nation.

[CROWD CHEERING]

EUSTACE:
Mama, if you could see me now.

[EUSTACE LAUGHING]

VINDALOO:

EUSTACE:
Stupid dog.
