02x04 - The Totem Master/A Gift for Shodu

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!

Mmm. I just love dangleberry juice.

Too bad they only bloom once a year.

WICKET: Yeah, well, this is a job
for a wokling, not a young warrior.

Warrior! (CHUCKLING)

Huh? Come on, come on.

(LAUGHING) Teebo, you've got to
show these berries who's boss.

(SCREAMING)

It's stuck.

(GRUNTING)

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Let me help, Latara.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

Oh!

Kvark! (GASPS)

Greetings, Ewoks!

Could you spare a poor traveler
something to drink?

Uh... Here.

Fresh dangleberry juice.

Ah!

Such kindness deserves a gift.

-Ee Chee Wa Wa! A totem pole!
-Wicket!

We're not supposed to take things
from creatures we don't know.

Ah, but all the really great warriors
have totem poles.

It helps them to protect their villages
from the forces of evil.

-I'll take it.
-Wicket!

A wise decision, my young friend.

Farewell.

(COUGHING)

Well, who wants to help me
carry this back to the village?

I didn't know great warriors needed help.

Thanks.

(GRUNTING)

Hey!

Come back here.

Oh, no!

They're robbing the village!

I've got to tell Chief Chirpa. Wha...

Not so fast, Ewok.

Come, join my little band of thieves.

No. No.

Huh? Teebo?

Now, little Ewok, join my totem pole,

and help us rob the next village.

What a dream. (YAWNS)

We mustn't overstay our welcome.
(LAUGHING)

AUNT BOZZIE: Help!

I've been robbed! Everything's gone!

-I've been robbed.
-Me, too.

They took everything.

Calm down, Ewoks! Calm down.

Okay. This is what I'm missing.

Three pins. A bone brush,
two gorgeous baskets.

A painted gourd blue, a painted gourd red.

A beautiful acorn necklace.

Latara, didn't you borrow
that necklace from me?

Uh, perhaps. But it's still gone.

Logray, did they steal the Sunstar?

No, Chirpa. It's still here.

Thank the Light Spirit.

Logray keeps the powerful Sunstar
well hidden.

MALANI: Oh! My brother's gone.

They stole Teebo!

Ewoks, find young Teebo.

-Teebo?
-Now, little Ewok, join my totem pole.

It wasn't a dream.

Come on, I think I know where Teebo is.

-And our stuff.
-My stuff? Lead the way.

(LAUGHING)

There's always some fool
who falls for my totem pole gift.

Fool, huh?
How did I ever fall for this guy's scheme?

Poor Teebo!

He really is a totem.

LATARA: Hey, that's my stuff.

Worthless garbage.

Garbage? Just a second here.

-Latara!
-Latara!

If you didn't like it,
then why'd you steal it?

-And another thing...
-Silence!

Why, you no good... No good...

No good, no good.

-He's got a magic ring.
-Shh!

Foolish Ewok.

We've got to get that ring.

-But how?
-Quickly. Look!

Kneesaa, your lasso lace.

KNEESAA: Oh...

Come on, he's getting away.

Whoa!

Hurry, Wicket. Hurry!

Wicket.

Next on our map is the Strutter village.

Those silly Strutters
will be easy to fool.

(LAUGHING)

If the totem master could fool
a smart warrior like me,

the Strutters will be easy pickings.

We have to stop him.

WICKET: And rescue Teebo and Latara, too.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Tacky, tacky, tacky.

Greetings, Strutters!

-Where are we?
-The Strutter village.

We've got to hide.

TOTEM MASTER: Have I got
the latest thing for you.

-Latest?
-The latest thing?

-The latest?
-The latest?

Yes. This beautiful totem pole

is guaranteed to make your village
the talk of Endor.

-Fabulous!
-Marvelous!

It's just incredible.

Love it, love it,
love it, love it, love it.

Hmm. I don't remember it being this big.

(SNORING)

After we drop this on the totem master,

we'll get his magic ring
and free Teebo and Latara.

I hope this works, Wicket.

Of course it will. It's my plan.

Time to wake up, my little robbers.

Go, go, my little totems!
Bring me everything.

Not yet.

Now!

(YELPS)

(THUD)

We did it.

Now all we gotta do is grab the ring.

(LAUGHING)

-You will join your friends.
-Run, Kneesaa!

After them.

Hurry, hurry!

Wicket? What's the plan now?

I'm working on it.

(GASPS)

Dead end! This way.

Get them.

(TOTEM MASTER GRUNTS)

They're getting away.

Teebo! Latara! We found you.

BOTH: We got 'em. They're over here.

Teebo, let go.

It seems your friends are now my friends.

Kneesaa, duck!

Dengar!

No!

The evil spell is broken. We're free!

-Hooray!
-Yay! Hooray!

-Thanks.
-You saved us.

Naturally.

The Totem Master
won't be messing with us again.

And I won't be taking anything
from strange creatures again.

(CHEERING)

-They're back.
-There they are.

They're back. The little ones are safe.

Hooray! You found Teebo!

And all my stuff.

Here it is.

No, Teebo, wait!

Whoa!

Teebo.

(LAUGHING)

TEEBO: I think I've got it
this time, Wicket.

(expl*si*n)

Teebo.

I can always try another magic potion.

No, no! That's okay, Teebo.

(GASPS)

KNEESAA: What have you done
to Master Logray's hut?

I was trying to help Wicket
come up with a birthday gift for Shodu.

Whoa!

Oh, kvark!

(SIGHS)

I've looked everywhere
and I can't find a present for Mom.

Wicket, her birthday party is tonight.

I'm lower than a reek worm.

Hey, I'm saved!

This old chart points the way
to a lost temple.

It sounds awful.

WICKET: It says the temple was built
by an ancient race of creatures.

LATARA: It sounds boring.

WICKET: Who used it
to hide a treasure of jewels.

It sounds wonderful.

When do we go?

Right now. I'll get a jewel
for my mom's birthday present.

KNEESAA: Wait, Wicket.

It also says,
"Ewoks, keep out or be doomed."

Hey, aren't the four of us old enough
to take care of ourselves?

Besides, we're brave Ewoks,
not a bunch of old, scared Duloks.

URGAH: You no-good,
mange-mouthed, lumpy Dulok!

KING GORNEESH: Whoa! Buttercup! Baby!

And don't come back until you bring me
a decent anniversary present.

Ow! Oh! Oh!

Stop, you root-heads.

Get me a fancy present for Urgah.

-Now!
-Yes, King Gorneesh. Right away.

WICKET: The lost temple.

Ee Chee Wa Wa!

Come on, guys.

No way. I'm not setting one foot
in that dirty temple.

Not even to see the treasure room?

-Out of my way.
-Latara, wait.

There could be booby traps.

Kneesaa, don't be ridiculous.

Ah, look at this.

ALL: No, Latara!

ALL: Whoa!

Latara.

Oh, no!

Hug the sides.

(GASPS) The lava pit!

Hang on.

(EXHALES) No treasure is worth this.

I'm getting out of here right now.

I...

Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay!

I'm in heaven.

That chart was right.
Look at these jewels.

I know Mom will love this one.

Let's go. This place makes me nervous.

I'll just take two more. Just three more.

Just more.

(ALL GASP)

All right, I'll put a few back.

(GASPS)

(SCREECHES)

(SCREAMS)

Run!

Well, just one couldn't hurt.

(SCREECHES)

Latara!

Hurry. Through here.

(ALL PANTING)

Oh, no, more traps! Ahhh!

We're saved.

LATARA: We're doomed.

I can't look.

Up ahead. A way out!

Mom's present.

Wicket, you're all right.

No wonder this temple's off limits.

We could have been k*lled.

Cheer up, guys.

We've got a birthday party to go to.

(DULOKS CHUCKLING)

Look at that gem.

It's perfect for Queen Urgah.

Yes, perfect!

Let's get it.

I've got the net.

Nice going, you root-head.

Now we'll have to get them
at the Ewok village.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Happy birthday, Shodu.

Oh... Thank you, Malani.

It's my very first birthday cake.

Really?

I would never have guessed.

Just in time.

Happy birthday, Mom.

EWOK: Ee Chee Wa Wa!

Wicket! Thank you, honey drop.

Where did you get such a beautiful gem?

Oh, you know, just lying around.

KNEESAA: Shodu just loves her present.

Isn't it wonderful, Latara?

That reminds me.

I took a little present for myself.

(GASPS) My jewel! It's hatching.

Kvark!

Those gems are really serpent eggs.

Ew!

We gotta tell Wicket about this.

KNEESAA: Teebo, come on.

You gotta ask Shodu to dance.

Huh? Whoa! (CHUCKLING)

Shodu, uh, may I have this dance?

Sure, Teebo.

Shall we, Wicket?

You gotta get Shodu's present back.

Are you crazy?

That's what hatched from Latara's gem.

Get it off.

Oh, kvark.

How am I gonna tell my mom?

Ew!

Wicket, what's the problem?

Um, there's, um, something I have
to tell you about that jewel.

Well... Huh?

What a coincidence, Ewok, so do we.

URGAH: Well, do I have
an anniversary present or not?

Queen Urgah,
please accept this beautiful gem.

Ouch!

And these two Ewok servants
with King Gorneesh's compliments.

I want my jewel.

-No.
-Let him have it, Mom.

But you gave it to me, honey.

Believe me, I don't mind.

That puffball needs to learn some respect.

Have her bow to me.

You heard your mistress. Kiss gravel.

Hey, leave my mom alone.

(WICKET GRUNTS)

No one touches my boy.

Oh, no, you don't.

Now, my sweet,

what punishment should we give
these rebellious tree rats?

Something awful.

Something terrible.

Something...

It's hatching!

(SCREAMS)

Huh?

Dengar!

Whoa!

Wicket, get going.

What kind of a cheap anniversary present
is this?

Gorneesh, you lazy, rotten, no-good scum.

I'll get you for this.

You! This is your fault!

Please, sire, I can explain.

(ALL SHOUTING)

-Come back here.
-I never should have married you.

Now, just where did you get
my birthday present, Wicket?

(CHUCKLES) It's a long, boring story, Mom.

Bore me.

So, now you know about
the temple and everything.

But I only did it
to get a nice present for you.

Wicket, being with my family

is the only birthday present
I'd ever want.

You got it, Mom.

So, will you teach me
that great flip you used on King Gorneesh?

SHODU: Just try breaking the rules again,
and I'll show it to you, up close.

(WICKET CHUCKLES WEAKLY)
