Woo-hoo!

[Playful laughing]

[Wind gusts]

[Playful laughter]

A-ha!

[Playful laughter]
gallop: [startled] ahhh!

Jake:
woo! Woo-hoo!

Could you hatchlings
please be quiet?

I almost jumped
outta my shell!

Sorry, gallop.

[Quiet laughter]

[Wind gusts]

Woo!

Whoa!

Gallop:
by my step and stumble!

Didn't I ask you two
to be quiet?

That was quiet.

For us.

Gallop:
hmm. Well, in that case...

No kite flying
allowed in my grotto!

Babar:
no kite flying?

I'm sure gallop
had a good reason.

He's just grouchy.

'Cause he's so old.

Babar:
badou! I'm old too, you know.

I hope that doesn't make me
grouchy.

No, papi.

Hey, are you going
for a hike?

Can jake and I go
with you?

Why not?
The more the merrier!

Both:
woo-hoo!

Badou:
why are we back
at the grotto, papi?

We're picking up
a fellow hiker.

Gallop:
morning, babar!
Ready to-

Hmm. What're these two noisy
hatchlings doin' on our hike?

I thought badou and jake
might enjoy coming along,

Old friend,

If that's okay with you?

[Groans]
fine!

Long as they leave
all the whoopin'

And hollerin' at home.

Badou:
maybe we should go back
to the palace.

Babar:
come along, boys.
It'll be fun!

Jake:
fun? With gallop?

Ah, that's impossible!

[Playful laughter]

Badou:
I've never been this way before.
Where are we going, papi?

Babar:
shadow rock, badou.

It's the only place
where turtle blossoms grow.

Badou: blossoms?
Jake: as in flowers?

Gallop:
they're not just any flowers.

These don't just bloom
every year, y'know!

Babar:
the last time gallop and I
saw them was twenty years ago.

Gallop:
and then fifteen years
before that.

Babar:
somehow gallop always knows

When the turtle blossoms
are going to bloom.

Gallop:
I can feel it in my bones,
like an itch.

But not the kind
you can scratch. More like a-

Badou:
what's that?
Let's go check it out!

Woo!

Yippy!

Jake:
race you there!
Let's go!

[Laughing]

Hmm.

They're just...
Enthusiastic.

Don't forget noisy.

[Beautiful flute-like sounds]

Babar:
this is singing cavern.

Wind from that
underground tunnel

Blows up through these holes
and makes that beautiful sound.

Badou:
like blowing air
through a flute!

[Sighs]

It's a fine spot to rest a bit
and listen to the-

badou:
woo-hoo!

Watch this, jake!
Woo-hoo!

Jake:
all right!

[Playful laughter]

[Discordant notes play]

[Unsteady]
whooaaaaaa!

Badou:
thumpin!

Jake:
yay!

Enough playin' around!

The turtle blossoms
are about to bloom.

Badou:
nits and gnats...

Just when we were
having fun.

[Playful laughter]
woo!

Jake:
sinky sand!

Looks like we'll have to go
all the way around it.

[Both sigh]

Gallop:
or we can just walk
across it.

Walk on sinky sand?
No way!

[Grunts of effort]

Gallop came up with this idea

On our very first turtle
blossom trek.

They work like snowshoes,
only on sinky sand!

Gallop:
the trick is you gotta go nice
and slow-

Both:
yay!

[Splat,
grunting]

[Splat]
uh-oh!

Bu'! Grab on!

Gallop:
what part of slow
don't you hatchlings understand?

Jake:
I didn't hear you say anything
about going slow?

'Course ya didn't!

Hatchlings never listen.
Hmph!

Give gallop a chance, boys,
he's just-

Badou and jake:
grouchy!

It's too deep
to wade across.

There's a bridge
up around the next bend.

We can cross there.

Badou:
swinging across would
be faster...

Woo-hoo!

Jake:
and way more fun!
Woo-hoo!

[Playful laughing]

Whoa-oa-oa-oa!

Oof!

Yes!

Both:
[laughing] woo-hoo!

Gallop:
gimme a push.

And make it a doozy.

[Grunting]

Weeeeeee!

Badou:
whooaaaa!

What a thumpin' move!

Can you show us
how to do that?

Can you?
Pleeeeaaaase?

Maybe later, jake.

Right now, we have to get
to the turtle blossoms

Before they bloom,
right, gallop?

Right! Follow me,
hatchlings.

Jake:
race you there!
Let's go!

[Playful laughing]

Badou:
whoa! Wasn't that tusktastic,
papi?

Babar:
it certainly was, badou.

Absolutely tusktastic!

[Bird calling]

Gallop:
shadow rock is just past
this cliff.

That's where we'll find
the turtle blossoms. Hmm.

Should be a path to the top
around here somewhere?

Hmm...
Sorry, old friend.

It looks like an avalanche
has destroyed the path!

Gallop:
well, that's that.

[Sighs] first time
I've missed the turtle blossoms

Since my hatching day,
two hundred years ago.

Whooooaaa.
That's a long time!

Reeeeaaallly long!

Babar:
the first time I joined gallop
on this trek,

I was your age, badou.

[Sighs]

I hike with my gramma
to windsong canyon every year.

I wouldn't want
to miss that for anything.

[Bird call]

I have a tusktastic idea!

Come on, papi!

Babar:
we'll be right back.

Just keep an eye on jake,
will you?

♪♪

[Humming]

[Groans]

[Taps]
huh?

You're it!
[Giggles]

[Playful laughter]

[Grunts]

Ha!

[Gasps]

[Playful laughter]

Whoa!

Phew!

Yes!

Yes!

[Giggles]

Thumpin!

Whoa!

Double somersault!
Woo-hoo!

[Chuckles]
woo-hoo indeed.

[Loud trumpeting]

Badou: whoa!
Jake: whoa, bu!

That's a big kite!

Not a kite, jake,
a glider!

So gallop can fly
to shadow rock.

Gallop:
oh no! In case
you haven't noticed,

I'm a turtle,

And turtles don't fly!

Babar:
sorry, badou.

It seems gallop is just too old
to try something new.

It's okay, gallop.

I don't think
you're too old.

Well, let's do this!

My itch tells me the blossoms
might bloom any minute now!

[Giggles]

[Unsure groan]

Well, I sure hope
this crazy contraption works.

Babar:
[grunts of effort]

badou: we have lift-off!
gallop: woo-hoo!

Whoa-oa-oa!

Babar:
too late to let go now!

Hang on, jake.

We've got passengers!

We need to find
an updraft!

Up, up, and awaaaaaaay!!!

Whoaaa! Weeeee!

Whoa!

Keep going!
We'll catch up!

Jake:
woo-hoo!

Gallop:
shadow rock dead ahead!

[Panting]

badou:
are these the turtle blossoms?

Yep!
And I woulda missed 'em

If it hadn't been for you
and your glider contraption.

thank you, badou.

You made this old turtle
very happy.

badou:
about that...

Jake and I don't mean to be
so loud all the time.

It's kinda...
Just the way we are.

Well, I don't mean to be
so grumpy.

And the next time you boys wanna
fly kites at my grotto

I hope you'll
let me play too.

Jake:
did we miss it?

[Rustling]

Woo-hoo!

Guys, listen...
[Tinkling]

it almost sounds like music.

[Tinkling]

Gallop:
I'm glad you hatchlings
came along.

It's been a lot o' fun.

Yeah!
It has been fun!

And just think, jake,
next time we come back here

We'll be grownups!

Not me!
I'm never getting old.

[Laughing]

[Chomps]

Jake and badou:
[gasps of horror]

Well, why else do you think
they call 'em turtle blossoms?

Mmm-mmm...

[Jake and badou laugh]

[Humming]

[Squawks]

Look, ms. Strich!
Sugar berry bushes!

Right you are, chiku.

by feeding on berries,

The birds scatter seeds

Which grow into more bushes,
which make more berries,

Which feed more birds,
which...

Whoa! Whoa!

Badou:
watch out, ms. Strich!

Whoopsy! Whoa!

[Grunts of effort]

ms. Strich:
oh my! Thank you!

Badou:
look, ms. Strich!
What kind of flower is that?

Hmm. I'm not sure.

I bet my papi would like
to have one of those

In his garden.

It is never a good idea
to pluck a strange plant

From its natural surroundings

And stick it somewhere new.

Chiku:
you shouldn't mess with nature,
right, ms. Strich?

Ms. Strich:
vous avez raison!

Now, shall we continue
our field trip?

Name three things you observed
about the birds feeding...

Bringing my papi
a few flower seeds

Isn't going to hurt anything.

[Grunting,
mud splatters]

Badou:
papi'll sure be surprised
when these start sprouting up!

Babar:
hello, badou.

Badou:
papi!

Um... Whatcha doing?

I've come to watch
the sun set.

Care to join me?

The sun and I are old friends.

I like to wish her
a good night

When I get the chance.

[Chomps]

Dad can I have more
banana pancakes, please?

You, my boy,
have an elephant-sized appetite!

[Laughing]

Now look at that!

I've never seen a flower
like that before?

Where did you come from?

Surprise, papi!

I planted some seeds
from a jungle flower.

Babar:
er... That was very kind,
badou,

But did you check
with a grownup

To make sure this plant was safe
to bring back?

[Fart hisses]

Babar, pom and badou:
ewwwww!

[Fart hisses]

Inside! Quickly!

[Relieved sigh]

[Sniffs]
huh?

Ms. Strich:
good mo-oh-oh-ah!

Oh my! What is that
terrible stinken?

Babar:
it's coming from some strange
new flowers badou found.

We'll have to clear
the palace.

[Coughing]

Babar:
everyone outside!

Find fresh air!

Dilash:
hey, how come everyone
is leaving?

Crocodylus:
is it pirates?
Jungle bandits?

Zombie moles?

What's haaaaappening?

Whaaaaa!

Don't panic,
ambassa-

Crocodylus:
whaaaaaaaa!

Pom, you and badou
make sure

Everyone gets safely
out of the palace.

I'm going to go back
and pull up those plants.

Right, pop!
Follow me, everyone!

Badou:
dad, I'm going to stay
with papi.

It's my fault
this is happening.

All right, badou,

Let's go fix
this problem.

Babar:
there's something sniffley
in all that stink.

Ah-ah-ahh...

Achooooo!
[Trumpets]

Oof!

Badou:
papi- ah-ah-achooooo!

Ahhhh! Oof!

Ah-ah-achooooo!
[Trumpets]

[Splash]

Ah-ah-achooooo!

Whoa!

Ah-ah-achooooo!

Whoa!
Ah-ah-achooooo!

Whoa! Oof!

We have to get out
of here!

Hang on tight!

Ahhhhh-choooooooooo!

[Incoming scream]

Oof!

Sorry, ambassador!

[Groans]

King babar,
is it true what I've been told?

You're making a ridiculous fuss
over a few fume blooms?

Fume blooms?
You know what they are?

Of course! They're native
to my beloved slogs.

Yeah, we call 'em
fart flowers.

Why didn't they stink

And make me sneeze
in the jungle?

Crocodylus:
everyone knows fume blooms
have no aroma

When planted in wet dirt.

The one in the jungle
was growing in a soggy bog!

You told me to leave
the flower alone, ms. Strich.

I should have listened.

Now I've stunk out
the whole palace.

Dilash:
are you saying you don't like
the smell of fume blooms?

Crocodylus:
but their scent
is so delightful.

Back home, we plant them
in pots full of dry dirt

So we can enjoy
their perfume.

Babar:
that won't work here.

We'll have to find a way
to pull them all up

If we ever want to live
in the palace again.

[Gasps]
king babar, old friend,

Dilash and I will help.

Fume blooms
don't make crocodiles sneeze,

So we can clean up the mess
your grandson has made.

Thank you, ambassador.

That is...
Uncommonly generous.

We crocs have big hearts.

Come, dilash!

To the palace where we shall
help our elephant friends!

Dilash:
I don't get it, uncle.

Why are we helping
the elephants?

Crocodylus:
nephewcompoop!

We're not helping!

We'll plant fume blooms
in every pot and pail

And garden patch.

The elephants won't be able
to come near

And the palace will be mine!

Hahaha!

Badou:
hey, that's weird.

Chiku, let me borrow
your videobinocs.

it looks like the stink
cloud is getting... Bigger.

nits and gnats!

dilash and the ambassador
aren't fixing things!

they're making them worse!

Chiku: badou, look out!
Badou: whoooaaa!

Whaaaa!

Pom! Speed catch!

Whoa!

Badou:
thanks, dad!

Papi, the crocs are spreading
fume blooms everywhere!

They're taking over
the palace!

Chiku:
your majesty!
The stink cloud is growing!

I can see it
coming this way!

Pom:
we need to get to safety.

Follow me, everyone!

Keep it orderly now.
Two by two.

Babar:
go on, lad.
Best roll on out of here.

Badou:
two by two!
Roll on out.

Papi, that's it!

We need some wheelie sneaks
and some rope!

[Spits]

Now that the fume blooms
are all wet,

They won't smell any more.

Babar:
clever lad!

Wheelie sneezing
was a good plan too.

A stinky job
but someone had to do it.

[Laughing]

Achooooo!

Achooooo!

[Laughing]

[Gasps] I can see the stink
cloud disappearing!

Come on, everyone!

King babar and prince badou
have done it!

[Cheering]

Badou:
what a mess!

I'll clean it all up!

Babar:
we'll all pitch in.

Badou:
this is the kind of nature
I like, papi.

I'm never gonna
mess around with it again.

You never know
what nature will bring.

That's why,
whenever you get the chance,

You should stop to smell-

Not the fume blooms!

Nope. The roses.
