[birds chirping]

[birds squawking
in the distance]

[insects chirping]

[gentle music]

[frogs croaking]

- Come on, kids,
Time to go home and pack,

We're going to Grandma and Grandpa's
first thing in the morning,

- But I'll go
only if Willy goes with us,

- David, Willy will be uptown
at the kennel while we're gone,

- I won't go without Willy Boy,

- You'll do as I say,

Now, go home
and pack your bags,

- But Mom, we just want
to see you perform, Please,

- Well...

okay, but after my number, you go,

[gentle music]

- [audience] Oooh,

[applause]

[gentle music continues]

- [David] Willy?

Willy!

I ain't going, Willy,
You got it?

'Cause I won't leave you
all alone with strangers,

So I ain't going
to Quebec, No way,

Would you miss me?

[Willy whines]
Come on, Willy,

What do you think?
[Willy barks]

[Willy whines]

- That little rascal,

Do you know
where David is?

Hmm... not telling,

- [David] I'm not coming down
'cause I ain't going nowhere,

- We already agreed
that you're going,

- [David] Forget it,

- You promised Granddad
that you'd visit him,

I think you should keep your word,
Don't you?

- I don't care!
I want to stay home,

I want to play baseball,
I want to be with Willy,

- I'm sure you'll find someone to
play baseball with at Granddad's,

- I want Willy to come with us,

[mother sighs]
- David!

You're making me angry,

I'm going back into the house,
and I expect you down and ready

because we are leaving!
Do you understand, young man?

- I'll think about it,

- You better think fast,

[Willy whines]

You're not helping,

[Willy whines]

[insects chirping]

[bird calling in the distance]

[huffing]

[nickering]

[owl hooting]

[gentle music]

- Ah, my beautiful gold dust.

[magical chiming]
Well, here we are again,

A little nap, and we'll look
for a human to test.

I hope they're finally ready to use your
magic to do good in their world.

The other two times I was sent
with you, they only wanted you

to give them power
over their fellow man,

But it's been 500 years.

They must have improved by now,

Anyhow, my royal brother gave me five
spells to make my stay more pleasant,

Maybe this time they'll make
the long rainbow ride

from the Great Land of Small
worth it.

[yawning]

I really shouldn't sleep
out in the open like this,

but I am invisible
to most humans.,.

All the ones who.,.
don't believe in.., magic,

[snoring softly]
[gentle music continues]

[birds chirping]

- Nobody knows what
Mimmick knows, Shh!

[snoring]

A magic visitor,

[man whistles]

[nickering]

[neighing]

Merlin, take Mimmick away...
from Flannigan!

[mysterious music]

- Spread out, Spread out,

[ominous music]

[g*nsh*t]

[second g*nsh*t]

- Hunters!

You gotta run!

You've gotta run!

I'll go with you,
Let's go!

[g*nsh*t]
Run for your life!

Run! Run!
[g*nsh*t]

Ah!

[Fritz gasps]

The gold dust!
It fell out! Oh, no!

What should I do?

[gold dust chimes]

[chiming]

[chiming becomes rapid]

[high-pitched tone]

[popping and whistling]
[chiming]

Hey, mister!
You've got my gold dust!

- Who's that? Who's there?
- Me! Can't you see?

[Fritz laughing]
Drop that dust!

- Who said that?

I heard you,

- [Fritz] Hey, why don't
I let him keep it?

He's as good a human
as any to test it on,

I'll even use a spell
to warn him,

All right, keep it!
- Huh?

- [Fritz] But use it wisely
for the good of all,

or you will cause
your own downfall!

[strange whirring]

- Ah! Oooh! Ah!
[Fritz laughing]

- Boss! Boss, you okay?

[groaning]

- My gosh, who was that?
- Who was who, boss?

- Whoever just...
oh, I'll tell you later,

All right, come on,
- He's seeing things,

- Let's get out of here,
[owl hooting]

[Fritz laughing]

[raccoon chattering]

- Huh? What are you doing
in my bed, huh?

[laughing]

[laid back music]

[clock bell tolling]

[bird chirping]

- Good morning,
[bird chirping]

- All right, you guys,
Now come here,

Okay, gather around,
Now listen,

I haven't told you everything,
but this could be big,

- Morning, Dad,
Coffee will be ready soon,

- Okay, Sarah,
I'll be right up,

Nobody breathes a word of
this to anyone, Understand?

Or you'll have me
to answer to, okay?

- O-kay!
- Catch him!

Do you want me to squish you
like a bug with my bare hands?

What are you doing here?

- It's raining,
It's pouring,

Our little friend was
a-snoring,

- Ah, let him go,
He's nuts, Flannigan,

- [Flannigan] And don't come back!

Looney tune,

[Mimmick playing harmonica]

Come on,

[playing harmonica]

- From far, far away,
they will come

to save us all,
You will see,

Mimmick knows,

[singing] It's raining and it's pouring,
invisible guests are snoring,

- Ahh! You're getting
pretty heavy, buddy,

- Want to play baseball?

- Baseball? Sure, I want
to play baseball,

- Oh, boy! Grandpa wants
to play baseball!

Where's my baseball mitt?
- Settle down,

- You've been growing up
again, haven't you?

- I've been having fun!

- He has been,
non-stop, all the way,

[upbeat music]

- You can't get through right now,

- Why not?

- Sit tight,
avoid any trouble...

and you'd better turn around
and find another way home,

- Let us through
or I'll blast you!

- David!

[vehicle approaching]

- [officer] What are you doing
out here, Flannigan?

- We ain't breaking
any laws, Patrick,

- That's for me to decide,

What are you blocking
the road for?

And what are your men
doing there?

- Uh, we're looking
for, uh, deer tracks,

It's... [clicks his tongue]
...hunting season, you know?

- And what are they doing with
those sticks? Gonna trip them?

- We're also looking
for rabbit eggs,

- Listen, Flannigan,
I'm warning you,

I know you're hunting at night
with a flashlight,

I'm gonna catch you, Understand?

- Very well,
Whatever you say, Patrick,

I'll just get my men,
and we'll be going,

- Yeah, you do that,
Oh, Flannigan...

when you find those rabbit eggs,
I'll be here to arrest you,

Hunting rabbit eggs...
it's ill*gal,

- They're looking for you,

[both chuckling]

And more gold
like you gave me,

[Flannigan whistles]

- It's nice to see you, Patrick,

- Flannigan's not causing you
any problems, is he?

- No, he's just blocking the road,
and we'd like to get through,

- Linda,

- Patrick,

Patrick O'Toole!

- That's me, ma'am,
- [Linda] Oh,

- Hey, these must be
your little ones,

- Yes, You have any?

- Oh, no, Not me,
I'm a single fella,

- This is David,
and that's Jenny,

- Fine-looking g*n
you got there, David,

- [David] It's a cowboy g*n,

- Yeah?

Nice to have you back home,
Perhaps we'll see each other again,

- Perhaps,

[harmonica]

- [David] We're here!
We're here!

[cat meows]

You're getting fat, Moonbeam,
I wouldn't want to be a mouse around here,

- Or a bird,

[Linda chuckles]

- It's the nature of a cat,
You can't change that,

- Let's go!

[birds chirping]

[David makes car racing sounds]

[insects chirping]
[gentle music]

[Moonbeam meows]

[Moonbeam meows]

- [Granddad] Leprechauns,
elves, fairies, gnomes...

there are plenty
of invisible creatures

all around us,

[striking a match]

[clock ticking]

- Are they really real?

I mean, you can't say for sure,
can you, Granddad?

- Well...

that depends on you,

First you have
to truly believe in them

before you can see one,

- I believe
they're really real,

- Then you might just
be lucky and find one!

- But Granddad, did you
ever see one yourself?

- Well... many, many years ago,
when I was a little boy,

I might have,

He looked like...

well, quite cute, he was,

What I can remember of him,
that is,

- Where can I find one, Granddad?

- They say you can find them
at the end of the rainbow,

- That sounds like
an old fairy tale,

- Well, that's the way it was
when I was a boy,

But such magic invisible
creatures will always exist,

- How do you know that, Granddad?

- Because, since the beginning
of time, there has always been

a place where past, present, and
future exist at the same time,

and that is where such
invisible magic beings live,

- These invisible beings,
are they good?

- What's good
and what's evil, eh?

- Granddad,

do they play baseball?

[chuckling]

- Even if they do, you'd have
to catch one first, right?

- [Linda] Come on, kids,
- Mummy!

I'm gonna find an invisible
creature 'cause I believe,

- Wow, good for you!

But now it's time for this
little creature to go to bed,

- Good night, David,
- Good night,

- Mm!
- Good night,

They're really real,
and I'm gonna... pow!

[Granddad chuckling]
- [Granddad] Good night,

[Jenny laughing]

- Come on, Up we go,

- I was just like him
when I was his age...

full of imagination,
- Hm, In some ways,

I think you're still seven years old
and still full of too much imagination,

- Fiddlesticks,
It'll do the boy good

to keep his eyes open
for invisible creatures,

- But, my dear, you should explain to
him that they're only make-believe,

- Haven't you ever seen one?
- Oh, you!

Sometimes I think
you're one of them,

- I want Willy here
'cause I miss him,

- I'm sure he misses you too,

- What were those men doing
on the road today?

- Well, I guess they were
looking for something,

- Maybe they were looking for gnomes
and invisible creatures too,

- Are fairies and gnomes
and all that stuff for real?

- Some people like to believe
that they're real,

- Willy believes in magic...

creatures,

[bird chirping]

- [Granddad] Ahh,

[Granddad singing in French]

I'm gonna fix this fence,

You two should go that way,

and keep your eyes open
for invisible creatures,

- Okay! Thanks, Granddad,

- Yeah, I'm gonna
find one for ya,

- A-ha,
[Granddad laughing]

[cow mooing]

[harmonica]

- No one knows,
but Mimmick knows,

Oh! Golden goldie gold,
that's what Mimmick knows,

[Mimmick chuckles]

Merlin,
Mimmick says hello!

Yoo-hoo!

[Mimmick chuckles]

Oh, my Merlin,

[Mimmick chuckles]

Here, now,
Are you mad at Mimmick?

Come on, come on,

Yeah, Yeah,

Ride me, Fly me,

Catch the rainbow
before it disappears,

Huh?

Fiddle me, befuddle me,

Let me ride you
to the rainbow,

Huh? Like our new friend,
Fritz, Okay?

[Merlin nickers]
Yee-ha!

[mysterious music]

[Merlin nickers]

[Merlin nickers]

- Look!

Unreal!

- Maybe we could
find the end,

Wow!

Hey, wait for me,

It's beautiful! Even better
than I could ever imagine!

- Come on,
we gotta find the end!

- Do you think...
it's safe?

Where are you going?

- [David] Into the rainbow,

- What are you looking at?
- Over there!

- I don't see anything,

- Down there,
Can't you see him?

You gotta really believe
before you could see him,

- I really want to believe!

- Try really hard,

- I really believe,
I do, I want to believe,

- Okay, open your eyes,

Who are you?

- Who am I? Who are you?
- I asked you first,

- I asked you second!

- Yeah, well, I saw you first,
so that makes two against one,

- Hmm, I'm Fritz,
[Jenny gasps]

- You're a --
- Wow, I knew it!

- "Wow, I knew it!"

- Whatever you are makes
no difference,

But it's not nice
to talk like that,

- Oh, it's not nice, isn't it?

- No, it's not nice,

Anyway, this is David,
and I'm Jenny,

[sniffing]
When was the last time
you had a bath?

- I hate water,

- I like you,

- Then I like you,
- Great!

- So, now that we've
settled that,

I'll be on my way,
- Hey!

Hey, no way,

No way,

No way,
You're coming home with me,

- I don't think that would
be a good idea, David,

- Maybe he's got
to go home, David,

- Absolutely right, little girl,
- I'm not a little girl!

- I'm sorry,

- I accept your apology,

Can we be friends?

- Friends? That would be nice,
[Merlin neighing]

Look!

There's Mimmick!

- Look, the rainbow's
disappearing!

- I can't get home
without the rainbow!

- You better go
before it's too late!

- Okay, you don't have to come home
with me, but we could play baseball,

- Maybe another time, David!
Bye!

Rainbow!

Wait for me!

- [Jenny] He's coming back!

- I missed my flight!

- Oh!

[horse neighing]

[birds chirping outside]

You don't have
to eat like a pig,

- Ahh, This tastes good,

- It's soda,

- More soda!

[cow mooing in the distance]

- You're being very rude, I think you
should say please and thank you,

Manners are important
here in the real world,

- Thank you,

- Good, that's much better,

But drink it slowly,
- Yes, ma'am,

May I now drink my soda?
- You don't have to ask,

[belching]

Please don't,
Burping is just so crude,

[belching]

Just keep it in now,
That's good, Hold it back,

[belching]

[sighing happily]

[stomach rumbling]

[David gasps]
- He's gonna explode!

[belching]

[sighing happily]

[horse neighs]

Someone's coming!
[horse neighs]

- We gotta hide him!

- It must be Mum,
I'll keep her busy,

[horse neighs]

[cow mooing]

- What are you doing?

- Horses like peanut butter
too, Mom,

- Are you two all right?

- Uh, sure, Mum,
We're just sitting around,

Uh, thanks,
The sandwiches were really good,

- Yeah, we all liked them,

- I see that,
[Jenny chuckles]

I thought I heard
a car door shut,

- [David] No,
- Uh, I think it's time for us to go to bed,

- Yeah, we're both
really tired,

[yawning]

- Isn't that blanket supposed
to be kept in the car?

- [David] Hmm?

- What's it doing
lumped on that chair

in such a funny way?

- [whispering] He's
really invisible,

- Yeah, Mum can't see him,

- What did you say?
Can't see what?

- He said he can see you,

- ls everything all right
with you two?

- Sure, Mum,
We're coming in soon,

- Yeah, like real soon, Mum,

[belching]

Excuuuse me,

- Okay, I give up,
What's going on?

- Nothing's going on, Mum,
- Hmm,

Well, okay, Come in soon,

- That's what happens
when you eat like a pig,

- What is a pig?

[insects chirping]

- [whispering] Stay here,

- We're going to bed
'cause we're tired,

- Well, that sounds reasonable,

Have a good time today?
- Yeah, unbelievable, Granddad,

- Good, good,

- I'll be up in a minute
to tuck you in,

- Good night, dear,

Sweet dreams,
[kissing]

- Are you sure
everything is okay?

- [Jenny] Yes, Mum, We're sure,
We're just really tired,

so we'll say good night now,
- Yeah, we're going straight

to sleep,
[yawning]

[accordion music]

- Like it?

A magic visitor gave it
to Mimmick,

It's magic too,

Like all...

Fritz's gold,

Now it's Sarah's,

- But I can't take this, It's real gold,
- Goldie gold

just for you because
you are golden too,

- But I can't,

I'm touched and grateful,
but... mm-mmm,

- [Flannigan] Hey, Sarah,
- Yes?

- [Flannigan] I told you
not to serve him,

- Better be on my way,
my golden goldie friend,

- That halfwit has
something I want,

Gotta keep an eye on him,

[harp plucking]

[mysterious music]

- You can do magic things,
can't you?

- Fritz, you wouldn't know E.T.
by any chance?

- That'd mean you're
from outer space!

- No, I'm... I'm not
from outer space,

Not exactly,

- Then where do
you come from?

- I'm from the other side
of the rainbow,

Inner space,

- Is that on the moon?

- David, he already said he's
not from that kind of place,

- Yeah, well, where else
could he come from?

- I come from the
Great Land of Small,

[belching]

- Is that on the other side
of the world?

- Like in China?

- Not exactly,

- Willy ain't in this world,
Can your magic bring him here?

- David, you shouldn't ask
for things like that,

- Why not? I want Willy,
I want you to bring him here

right now!

- Who's Willy?
- I thought you were smart,

- I'm smart, But I'm not smart enough
to know something I don't know,

- Willy's my dog,
and he lives in New York,

and he's in jail,

- Well, in that case,
I'll free Willy,

[strange whirring]

From far, far away,

from over the rainbow
and through the other dimension,

I want my second spell
to bring Willy here!

I think it goes
something like that,

[strange whirring]
From far, far away,

and through
the other dimension,

I want Willy to appear here!

[whirring stops]
- I can't see him, Where is he?

- Is he invisible too?

- To all those
who don't believe,

- I believe,
but he's not here,

- Be patient, David,
He's on his way,

[electronic beeping]

These things take a few
microseconds, you know,

- Oh, like a satellite
transmission, right?

[strange whirring]
- From far, far away,

From over the rainbow and
through the other dimension,

I want Willy to appear here!

- [Jenny and David] Willy!
[Willy whining]

- Ah!

[upbeat music]

- You want to
take a ride now?

- Uh, I can't,
I'm working,

- Maybe tomorrow?

- Maybe,

Oh,

[bird chirping]

- Come on,
I saw you give it to her,

[Flannigan sighs]

[magical chiming]

- It's all clear, Let's go!
- [Fritz] To Mimmick's!

- Yeah,
- Lead the way, Willy!

- [singing] La la la la la la

La la la la la la

La la la la la

La la la la la la

La la la la la

I'm singing all day

I'm dancing my own way

Makes me feel okay

I'm singing in the sun

I'm out here for the fun

Come on, join along

Every day you need to

Everybody wants to

Break out into a song

Every day you found out

Everybody shouts out,

"What's your
favorite song?"

I'm singing all day

I'm dancing my own way

Makes me feel okay

I'm singing in the sun

I'm out here for the fun

Come on, join along

I'm singing all day

I'm dancing my own way

Makes me feel okay

- Don't pass them,

They're in on it,
I can feel it,

[strange whirring]

[men shouting]
[Fritz laughing]

- Come on,
Mimmick will help us,

Let's go!

[synth music]

- You're magic, but you can't
tie your own shoelaces?

- Okay! Okay!
- Hurry, we gotta split!

They're coming after us!

[Jenny gasps]
- [Jenny] Come on, this way!

- [Flannigan] Come back here!
We won't hurt you! We just want to talk!

- [man] Come on! They're kids!

- [Jenny] Come on, Fritz!
- [David] Hurry!

- [Jenny] Come on, Fritz!

- Come on, after them!

- Come back here!
- Wait!

[bleating]

- [Fritz] That's Mimmick's shack up
ahead, Jenny! Tell him we need help!

[harmonica playing]

- Can you help us, Mimmick?
- What's happening?

- Those men are after us!

- Oh, Fritz,
Oh, no, Flannigan,

Come with me,
Come on, Come on,

[ominous music]

[goat bleating]

- [Fritz] Oh, no!
I hate water!

- [Mimmick] Get in, Get in
and start paddling!

- [David] Come on, Willy!
- [Mimmick] Hurry!

[Willy whining]

[men shouting]
- [man] Get 'em! Get 'em!

- [Flannigan] Hey!
- [Fritz] Oh, no!

- All right, Mimmick, you're in for it now!
- [Flannigan] Hey!

[fast-paced music]

- [man] After him!

- I hate water!
And I hate canoes!

- [man] Oh!

- [man] Get them!

- [Flannigan] We'll get
you kids yet!

- [man] Almost had him too!

[bird chirping]

- Where's Mimmick's gold?

It's gone,

- [Fritz] I hate water!

I hate canoes!

I hate being here!

- [Jenny] Pull yourself
together, Fritz!

Try to think
about something else!

- [Fritz] Like what?
- [Jenny] Oh! Paddle, David!

- [David] I am! I am!

Look out! Rocks!

- [Jenny] You've got
to help us!

Fritz! Do something!

- Help!
- [Jenny] Fritz!

- From far, far away,

take us over the rainbow!
- [David] Help!

- Magic, magic,
don't fail me now!

[all yelling]

[peaceful music]

- Fritz, Willy, Jenny, wake up!

- Wow!

Where are we?

- We're in my world,
The Great Land of Small,

- It's beautiful
in your world,

- I think so,

- [man on CB radio 1 ] Uh, Mike,
did you get the report

on what your progress is?
You got anything yet?

- [man on CB radio 2] We're up
here in, uh, McMurphy's farm.

We're looking around here.
We had some reports that, uh,

that people saw the kids.
We don't know enough..,

there's nothing much happening.
We're just checking around here,

waiting for another.,.

- Okay, I got that. Roger,

- Uh, Dave,
anything in sector three?

- No, nothing at all.
I've been on the river here.,.

And nothing we can see
right now, so I'm gonna just

check up along the shore..,

[Linda sobbing quietly]

[upbeat music]

[cheering and applause]

- Hey, look!
- [David and Jenny] Wow!

- This is only a rehearsal,
The King and Queen are

celebrating their 500th
wedding anniversary,

- Wow! She doesn't look


- Maybe it's their 5,000th then,

Who cares?

- Wow! She looks like Mom!

- Willy, up!
Willy, up!

- What's this?
- [David] That's Willy,

- He's our friend,
- [David] Our dog friend,

[Willy barks]
- Are these children and Willy

with you, Fritz?
[barking]

- Yes, Your Majesty,

- Well, everyone must
join our procession,

Fritz?

How was your visit
to the human world?

Did they pass the test?

Don't worry, Fritz,

if they're not ready,
more's the pity,

but so long as you have
the magic gold dust...

- I don't have it,
Your Majesty,

- You don't have it?

- I left it
with the humans,

- But Fritz...

in human hands,
it's dangerous,

When they have gold,
they always try to gain power,

- I know,
I'm sorry,

- How many times

has the King allowed you to go
and return from the human world?

- This was the last time,

- How many spells
do you have left?

- Only one,

- You must use it to get
the pouch of gold dust

back somehow,

Do the children
and Willy know

they can't go back
to their world?

I'll speak to
the King about them,

You will become
a beautiful butterfly,

But first you must
meet our king,

[upbeat music continues]
[crowd cheering continues]

[ominous music]

[Flannigan gasps]
[laughing softly]

[chiming]

[deep rumbling]

[chiming]
[rumbling]

[glasses rattling]

[chiming]

[laughing]
[rumbling]

[glasses rattling]

[rumbling ceases]

[upbeat music]
[cheering and applause]

[crowd goes quiet]

- Fly, my queen!

- Wow, she does it
like Mum does!

- Yeah!

[applause]

- It would be nice to
have children of our own,

- It's the one thing
we'll never know,

- But we have
everything else,

- Yes, we're happy,

- But a little girl
would be so nice,

- And a little boy
would bring such joy,

- I think if we
Slimo these children...

- They could be ours,
- Mm,

- David and Jenny,
come to us,

- [David] And Willy too?
- And Willy too,

And my younger twin brother, Fritz,

- Hi, My Brotherly Majesty,
- Here, come sit with us,

So, you will be Slimoed,

- [David and Jenny] Slimoed?

- [Queen] Yes, but first
you must meet the Keeper,

- [Jenny] Huh?

[zapping noise]

- Hello, Now, don't be afraid,
I'll take good care of you,

- [Jenny] What?
- [David] Hey, what's going on around here?

- Oh, nice doggie,

- [Queen] Keeper, you must
keep our children happy,

- Oh, I'll try, ma'am,
I promise you,

I'll do my best,

- You're okay, Keeper,

- Oh, I hope that
we will all be friends,

- [Queen] Why not?

[zapping noise]

We'll let them
get acquainted,

[zapping noise]

- This is my house,
Like it?

- [David] Yeah,
What are those?

[Keeper chuckling]
- Cobs,

Those lightning bugs are cobs,

[monstrous growling]
[Willy barking]

[barking]

[monstrous growling]

[roaring]

If you shut your eyes
or blink hard,

he'll make friends,

[barking]

He's my own doggie,
Munch!

- Oh, He's very nice,

- Yeah, Long as you blink,
- What does he eat?

- Anything that doesn't blink,
but what he likes most is cobs,

Ha! Ha! Ha!
[Keeper gasps]

Go on, Get it, boy!

[Munch roars]

- What's wrong, Fritz?

- You can never go home,

- What?

- Never go home?
No way!

I want to see Grandpa
and Grandma and my mum,

- But we have to get back
to see my dad,

even though we don't live
with him anymore,

Come on, Fritz,
We've got to get back!

- I'm sorry, but...
it's impossible,

- Does that mean
we're gonna stay here forever?

- Yes, David,

- But you said
you had one spell left,

- Yeah, but just one,
- So use it,

- I need it
to get the dust,

Besides,
you're gonna be Slimoed,

- What is that?
- [Keeper] By Slimo himself,

- [David] Slimo is a who?

- He makes
our magic gold dust,

- And what's going to happen
to us once we're Slimoed?

- Well, you'll...
live forever...

be happy!

- We'd never be happy knowing
everyone's worried back home!

- [David] Yeah, who wants
to live forever without Mom?

[Munch moans sadly]

[insects chirping]

[owl hooting]

- Patrick is a good man,

if anyone can
find them, he will,

- [Linda sobbing] I hope so

because my children are
everything to me,

- Don't worry, Linda,
I'll find them,

I will,

I don't know,
I think we lost them,

[ominous music]

[electronic beeping]

[glass breaking]

[scrambled electronic signals]

[loud ruckus]

[gasping in fear]

[Flannigan laughing maniacally]

[zapping]
[booming and whistling]

[Flannigan laughing
continuously]

[crying out]

[upbeat music]
[cheering and applause]

[music ends]

[people slowly chanting "Slimo"]

["Slimo" chant continues]

[deep, slow moaning]

[moaning]

["Slimo" chant continues]

- [King] The great Slimo
is ready to proceed,

Have our first two subjects
come to an agreement?

- No, you're wrong,
and I'm right!

- No! You're wrong,
and I'm right!

- Oh, you will both be Slimoed!

- And this will be
your last Slimo,

- No more arguing!

- If you fight again...

- You'll be sent
to live with the humans,

- Proceed to be Slimoed,

[space noises]

[space noises]

- [King] And we don't want them
back till they're ready,

[laughing]

[Slimo moaning]
[bubbling]

[crowd applauding]

[moaning]

[chiming]

Why is this woman
being Slimoed?

- She would like to spend
more time in the sky,

[space noises]

[splat]

[bubbling, chiming]

[applause]

[applause and cheering]

[chiming]

- [Fritz] David, Jenny, I'll use
my last spell to get you home!

- [Jenny] What?
- [Keeper] Run!

- [Fritz] Sorry, brother dear, but
they really do belong with their family!

- [Keeper] Hurry, Munch, Fritz needs
our spells too, Go on, Fritz,

- Take us far, far away,

over the rainbow
from where we came!

- [King] It's all right,
Let them go,

- [Queen] Do you think Fritz
knows what he's doing, dear?

[Slimo moaning]

[bird chirping]

[Sarah gasps]

- [David] We made it!

- Everybody's been
searching for you two!

- [David] Where's Willy?

- And Fritz and the Keeper and Munch,
- What are you talking about?

- They must have been lost
in the transport beam,

- Transport beam?
- Yeah, you know, like in Star Trek,

- David, Star Trek's science fiction,
We're talking magic!

- It makes no difference!

- All I know is that I gotta
get you back to your mother,

- Who are you?

- I'm Sarah, I've been
searching like everyone else,

Where have you been?
- I can't explain

everything right now, Sarah,
but you've got to help us, okay?

- Help you? With what?
- Don't worry, Sarah,

You'll be fine as long
as you believe in magic,

- And invisible beings!

- Invisible beings?
- Yeah,

- You'll see,

- Fine, but right now I
want to get you back home,

[gentle music]

[Moonbeam meows]

- We did find the magic
creatures, Mummy,

and Willy saw them too,

- Willy's at home, David,
- No, he ain't,

- Oh, baby,
- It's all right, Mom,

He's just confused,

- We did find the magic
creatures, Mummy!

- David,

Don't say that anymore,
- We did find them,

and Willy was with us!

- The boy's obviously
in a state of shock,

- No, I ain't,

- All that matters is
everyone is back

safe and sound,

- That's true, dear,

and tomorrow morning

all will be much better,

- We won't say anything more
about Willy or Fritz,

We've got to prove to them
that we're all right,

Then they'll
leave us alone,

- Gotcha, We gotta
find the others,

[footsteps]
- Shh!

[footsteps]

- I think they'll be
fine in the morning,

- I sure hope so,

- David has a big
imagination, that's all,

- David's always been
a special boy,

He's very creative
and very bright,

He'll undoubtedly say the wrong
thing at the wrong time,

- Hm,
- But he's wonderful,

Of course,
he needs lots of love,

- Just like someone else
I know,

They're doing fine,

- Asleep already,

and I don't think
we have to worry,

- You know,
the only question is,

where were they
for nearly two days?

- They're back safely,
and that's all that matters,

- Something very
unusual happened,

They couldn't have been
in the water all that time,

[insects chirping]
[frogs croaking]

- [whispering] We've
gotta be really quiet,

- Right,
[noise nearby]

What was that?
- I don't know,

- Hi, Keeper!
- Shh! Not so loud,

- Well, hello there, everyone,
[Munch growling]

Munch says,
"Hi, We made it,"

- We're ready to go,

Thank you, sir,
- You know what happened to Willy?

- And where's Fritz?

[bicycle bell]

[bicycle bell]

- Boy, am I glad
we all made it!

- Right, I never rode a bike,

- They're much safer
than canoes, Ha! Ha!

- Willy, you made me so nervous,

- I had to use all my magic to save you,
- Willy!

[Willy barks]
Thanks for saving him,

- Okay, now that we're all safe,
we have to get back the gold dust,

- We better hurry!

- [Jenny] Come on!

[Willy barking]

[playful music]

- We got Mimmick, boss,
At Black Mountain,

- To Black Mountain then,

[ominous music]

[insects chirping]

[insects chirping]
[footsteps on grass]

- [David] There are sure a lot
of stars in outer space,

- [Jenny] Yeah,
Makes me feel lonely,

- [Fritz] Oh, you're not alone,
- [Jenny] No?

- [Fritz] Uh-uh,

- [Jenny] I thought you
only knew about inner space,

- I come from inner space, but I
take my holidays in outer space,

- Wow, someday maybe
we'll all go for a holiday,

- Maybe we will someday,
First we have to find the gold dust,

- [Jenny] Somebody's coming!
We've got to hide!

- What's the difference? They're invisible,
- But we're not!

- [Fritz] Jenny's right,

We'd better hide!

- Willy!
Willy, come!

[honking]

[Munch yelps]

- [Keeper] Munch!

Go to him!
Let me see who's driving!

- Munch!

[Munch growling]
- [Sarah] Ah!

[Munch panting]

Ah! Ah!

- Sarah, are you all right?
- Oh, Jenny,

I just saw the most awful thing,
You wouldn't believe it,

- Did you hit him?

- No, but he was
looking at me

through the window,
right where you are,

- Thank goodness
he's safe!

He's really very sweet
once you get to know him...

if you don't stop blinking,
of course,

- Get to know him?
I'm supposed to get to --

I don't believe this
is really happening,

- Oh, but you do believe,
and that's why it's happening,

and it's all
very real, Sarah!

You remember at the river?

- Yes, I... I do,
- Come on out, You'll see,

- Oh, I don't think
I want to go out,

- Don't be afraid! Trust me, okay,
because we haven't much time!

[Munch panting]

Oh, here he is,

He thinks a
headlight is a cob,

- What's a cob?

- His favorite food
in the Great Land of Sm...

oh, never mind,

It's okay, Munch,
That's a headlight,

It's not a cob,

- He seems to understand
what you're saying,

- He's really very intelligent,
even though he doesn't look it,

Munch,

this is Sarah,
She's my friend,

Blink, Sarah,

- Munch,
[Munch panting]

You're a very nice fellow,

- And I would like you
to meet the others,

- The others?
- Yes, everyone is here,

- Gosh!

- These are my friends:
the Keeper and Fritz,

- Hi,
- I'm very pleased to meet you,

[Keeper chuckles]

- And you already know
my brother... David,

- Hi, David,

- All right, now we have to
get the gold dust back, okay?

- Before something
really terrible happens,

- I know where
the gold dust is,

It's with my father
on Black Mountain. Come on!

- I've figured
it out, Mimmick,

So, where's
your invisible pal?

Come on, talk!

- Far, far away,
Mimmick doesn't know,

- Yeah, well, I will
know by tonight,

Understand?
Take him away

and tie him to that tree,

You come with me,

and the rest of you guys spread out,
and keep your eyes open,

- Why don't you talk?

[Sarah gasps]

- [Jenny] Let's go,

Come on, Willy!

- Fritz, stay low!

[mysterious music]

- [man 1 ] Think the boss
has flipped his lid?

- [man 2] I don't know,
Sounds pretty weird to me,

[chuckling]
I don't know,

- Oh! They've got Mimmick,
We have to help him,

Keeper, Munch, you're invisible,
Do something, Okay?

- What's taking him so long?
- Yeah, I wonder what he's doing,

- Did you hear something?

What's the matter?

[ominous music]

[car starting]
Hey!

- [man] Huh?

Huh?
Hey, look at that!

[honking]
Hey! Hey!

Come on!

[Mimmick chuckling]

Hey! Come back here with
that car! Come here! Stop!

[honking]
Stop! Hey!

Come on, you guys! Help me!
[men shouting]

Come on!
Do something!

The door! The door!
Get the door!

[men shouting]

- Mimmick, run!
- Hey, thanks, Hi, Fritz,

- Shh!

- Okay,
- You okay, Mimmick?

- Yeah, I can hold them off,
- We can't leave you here,

- You must go try and stop
Flannigan before it's too late,

Hurry! Hurry! Go! Ah!

- Mimmick! He's loose!
- Get him! Get him! Forget the car!

Come on!
- After him!

- Don't let him get away!
Don't let him get away!

- After him!

[Willy barks]

Get him!

- After him!

[Fritz laughing]

[Willy whining]

- You wait here,

[ominous music]

[barking]

[Willy barking]

- [David] Look!
Mimmick's back!

- I lost them,

Okay, go! Go!

I will take care of
David, Fritz, and Willy,

- [Sarah] Okay,

[chiming]

[whirring]
[high-pitched tone]

[laughing]
- It's starting to happen!

This could be
the end of him,

[high-pitched tone]
[laughing maniacally]

[laughing maniacally]

- I have the power!

I am the greatest thing alive!

[laughing maniacally]

- What you're
doing is wrong!

Please stop before
it's too late!

- [Flannigan] Who
are you to say?

- The power does
not belong to you!

You must stop! You're going
to harm innocent people!

[laughing maniacally]

- [Flannigan] I am the greatest
thing of all!

[laughing maniacally]

- Father! No! Don't!

Ahh!

[Flannigan laughing]
[wind blowing]

[wind and other sounds stop]

- [Flannigan] Sarah!

Sarah, I don't know
what came over me,

- You must return the magic gold
to its rightful place,

- Sarah, Sarah,

Oh, Sarah,
you're everything,

You're everything
in the world to me,

I don't want harm to come
to you or anyone else,

Can you forgive me, Sarah?
Can you ever forgive me?

[rooster crowing]

[birds chirping]

- The gold dust must be returned
to the King and the Queen

of the Great Land of Small,
and it's you, Fritz,

who must return
the gold dust,

- Hmm,

[Keeper chuckles]

I used my last spell to... to keep
Jenny and David from being Slimoed,

I can't go back to the
Land of Small... ever,

- Never go back?

- David and Jenny
must not find out,

I want you to take the gold dust
back to the King and Queen,

- I'll give the gold dust
to the King,

- You must not tell
Jenny and David,

- Sure, Fritz,

- You want to play baseball?
- You have to go,

- Huh? Baseball?

Yes, I want to, Yes!

[Keeper laughing]

- You can play baseball later,
Now it's time for our friends to go home,

- You sound just like a grownup,
- It's the way I am,

I can't help it, David,
- Yes, you can!

- You're all wonderful!
Munch, you're a darling!

And you, Fritz, you showed
us a brand new world,

- And you showed me
humans can be responsible,

- You're a very,
very special friend,

And I will always
think of you, Munch...

...and Keeper,
- And I will always remember you, Jenny...

and David,

- I guess you're going home too,
Sorry, I'll see you at home, okay?

[Willy whines]

- I used my last magic,

Will you use one of your last
too to help Willy get home?

- Right,

[strange whirring]
- [Fritz and Keeper] I want Willy

to disappear!

Far, far away,
over the rainbow,

through another dimension,
right away!

[zapping sound]

- Wow, that's really neat!
Why don't you teach me

how to do that?

- Maybe someday I will,

- [Keeper] Let's go,

[insects chirping]

[crow cawing]
