02x12 - Battle for the Sunstar

Post by bunniefuu »

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

(SPEAKING EWOKESE)

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

(SPEAKING EWOKESE)

(DR. RAYGAR LAUGHING SINISTERLY)

At last,

the forest moon of Endor.

Soon I will have the Sunstar,

and all the power that comes with it.

ADMIRAL KAZZ: Dr. Raygar.

I cannot believe there is anything
on that backwater planet

that could be of use
for the Galactic Empire.

What you believe
does not interest me, Admiral Kazz.

The Emperor himself
has approved my expedition.

Yes, to such a primitive world,

for a magic stone guarded
by furry warriors called Ewoks.

Ha! No one believes that.

It's just one more of your foolish ideas.

When I return, Admiral,

I will show you proof of my mission,

the Sunstar.

We'll see, Raygar.

Hurry up, droid, to the ship.

(DROID CHIRPING)

We will leave for Endor at once.

LATARA: Ugh, I still don't know
why we have to carry

the jinjang berries
up to the guba bird's nest.

Come on, Latara, you know
it hardly rains up there.

And without the jinjang berries,
the baby gubas might starve.

-Whoa!
-You're breaking my heart, Kneesaa.

While we're wasting time with the gubas,

I could be getting a trophy
for my belt of honor.

Now, Wicket,

if you help others,
they'll help you someday.

Ooh!

Here, gubas.

Look what we brought you.

(GUBAS CALLING)

Whoa!

(YELLS)

-(GASPING)
-Kneesaa!

(YELLS)

(ALL GASP)

(ALL SHOUTING)

(GUBAS LAUGHING)

(SHOUTING STOPS)

(GRUNTS)

(TEEBO GROANING)

Well, Kneesaa, so much
for your good deed of the day.

"If you help others, they'll help you."
Ha!

-(LOUD TRILLING)
-Is everyone okay?

Teebo, quit yelling!

I'm not yelling. Huh?

If you're not yelling, who is?

It's coming from over there.

(LOUD TRILLING CONTINUES)

Ee Chee Wa Wa!

Look.

TEEBO: Poor little perkle.
What's that thing he's in?

I think it's a trap.

Don't worry, perkle.
We'll get you out of there.

Everybody, get set.

Heave!

(ALL GRUNTING)

(PANTS)

Oh! I need to get a better grip.

(GRUNTING)

(LOUD WHINE)

-Oh!
-(TRILLS)

I think this calls for magic, not muscle.

Oh, no. Now we really are doomed.

Just a tiny drop of this potion
should do the trick.

You know, I used this once
on a yellow bellied...

Teebo!

What is this stuff?

(LATARA COUGHING)

Uh-oh.

(BOTH COUGHING)

Huh.

Thanks, Teebo.

(COUGHING)

Happy to be of service, Latara.

I've never seen anything like this trap.

I wonder where it came from.

TEEBO: Whoa!

Help, Wicket!

(MEN YELLING)

What is it?

-(YELLS)
-Kneesaa!

(LAUGHING)

Kneesaa! (YELLS)

Wicket, what are they?

I don't know, but if they don't let
Kneesaa and Teebo go right now...

(SPEAKING EWOKESE)

(LAUGHING)

Even though my trap didn't catch an Ewok,

it has led me to them just the same.

-Who are you?
-I am Dr. Raygar.

Tell me the location
of your tribe's village,

-and I'll let your friends go free.
-(GRUNTING)

Don't tell him, Wicket. He's evil.

Tell me!

Or I'll destroy them now.

(YELLING)

-Stop!
-Well?

Over this hill,

follow the river
until you reach the great trees.

And the Ewok warriors will stop you good
if you even show your face near there.

Bring them back to the ship.

What? Hey!

(STRUGGLING AND YELLING)

(EXCLAIMS)

(GROANING)

-WICKET: Uh-oh!
-(EXCLAIMING)

(LAUGHING)

WICKET: The door.

Come on.

-(CRACKLES)
-(YELLING)

The force field will hold you
until I get the Sunstar.

The Sunstar?

You two, follow me to the Ewok village.

You stay here and stand guard.

We've got to get out and warn the tribe
about the Sunstar.

Well, Kneesaa, you don't see
any guba birds helping us

when we're in trouble.

Shh. Someone's coming.

Hide over here.

Maybe we can jump them.

(DROID EXCLAIMING)

There is no admittance. Stay out.

Uh, I was only bringing food
for the prisoners.

No food for the prisoners.
Dr. Raygar's orders.

Back to your business.

(SIGHS)

Poor little guy.

See, Latara?

He was trying to help us.

Psst, psst.

Ewoks, something for you to eat.

Thanks.

You seem like a nice... creature.

How about letting us out of here?

I'd like to,

but Dr Raygar would destroy me
if I let you escape.

Hmm... Well, how about if you sort of
accidentally escaped with us?

Now you're talking.

(GASPS)

Come on. Through here.

Hurry!

The exit's this way.

-(DROID CHIRPING)
-(GRUNTS)

Can't get out that way.

Oh, kvark.

Kvark?

What does that mean?

UH... You know... Kvark?

Hey, this looks like a way out.

DROID: Well, it's not exactly
an exit, but...

No! We're trapped again.

I knew it.

This little lurdo is as bad as the others.

I think he's still our friend.

After all,

why would he let us out
just to capture us again?

Then where are we?

This capsule is a form of transportation.

Like a canoe?

Okay.

If this is a canoe,
how do we make it go, hmm?

-(ENGINE STARTS UP)
-(SCREAMS)

The prisoners have escaped!

(ALL YELLING)

What's happening?

Grab the controls and straighten us out.

Okay.

We're all going to die!

No! No! To the left!

No!

Now, ease back.

(CHITTERING)

-I think I got it now.
-Good.

Oh, Wicket!

What if we're too late
to warn the village?

-What is it?
-Where did it come from?

-Watch it!
-Run!

(OVERLAPPING SHOUTING)

(LAUGHING)

Look out!

Here it comes again!

(SHOUTING CONTINUES)

Warriors! Stop that evil creature.

(SHOUTING IN EWOKESE)

Look out.

Here's more.

(SCREAMING)

(SCREAMING)

Whoa!

BOTH: Huh?

The woklings.

(OVERLAPPING SHOUTING)

(GASPING)

(SCREAMING)

No!

I must get the Sunstar.

No!

The Sunstar.

Save the Sunstar.

(MEN YELLING)

The Sunstar.

(LAUGHING)

It's mine.

We must stop him.

Get him.

Chief Chirpa, another attacker coming in.

(OVERLAPPING SCREAMING)

EWOK: Dangar!

Father!

Kneesaa?

Father, there's an evil being
coming for the Sunstar.

(ALL GASPING)

I'm afraid it's gone, daughter.

Gone forever.

Our Sunstar, in the hands of an enemy.

There's no telling what evil he can do.

WICKET: Maybe there is a chance
to get the Sunstar back.

PD, could we follow the evil one's
canoe in this?

Possibly.

What is this thing?

Is it alive?

It's a flying canoe.

We escaped from the evil one in it.

Whatever it is, it doesn't look safe.

Of course it's safe, Shodu.

And so easy to operate too.

All you have to do is jump up here.

No, Latara.

Like this.

Wait for everyone.

Wicket!

Wait!

Ee Chee Wa Wa!

Wicket, we've got to go back
and pick up the warriors.

Warning! Warning!

Dr. Raygar's ship is moving to space fast.

If we don't follow him now,
we'll lose his trail for good.

Then we've got to follow his canoe.

Yeah, and get the Sunstar.

I'm really glad we have you
along to help us, PD.

My first master
always told me to help others,

and they'll help you some day.

I've always felt the same thing.

Where is your master now, PD?

I don't know.

I was stolen from him by the Empire.

I still hope that some day
I'll find him again.

I hope so.

-(BEEPING)
-Hey, it's beeping at me.

How rude.

It's a signal.

We're heading into deep space.

Hang on.

Hang on? What do you mean?

(ALL YELLING)

I'm floating.

(OVERLAPPING YELLING)

Oh, no!

I don't feel so good.

Don't you dare, Teebo.

Uh, PD, is this normal?

PD-: Gravity stabilizers, now engaged.

(ALL GRUNTING)

So, Dr. Raygar,
was your mission successful?

I have recovered the Sunstar as promised.

But I will present it only to the Emperor.

As you wish.

The Emperor's on his way here now.

But for your sake, Doctor,

that trinket of yours
had better be as powerful as you say.

Have no fear, Admiral.

Soon, the entire galaxy will feel
the Sunstar's power.

(BEEPING)

The bug that lives behind this glass
keeps telling me something.

That's a computer reading telling us

we're coming up
on Dr. Raygar's star destroyer.

Star destroyer?

Take a look.

WICKET: Ee Chee Wa Wa!

Shuttle pod, identify yourselves.

This is Pilot Droid, PD-.

-I'm returning to serve Dr. Raygar.
-Approach the landing bays.

What's gonna happen now?

You just hide, and stay quiet.
Everything will be fine.

Trust me.

(YELLS)

So you claim to have snuck away
after the Ewoks captured you,

and then escaped in this pod?

Yes, sir. That's right.

If you were a proper imperial droid,

you never would have allowed yourself
to be captured in the first place.

Take this worthless lump,

and have it recycled
into something useful.

With pleasure, sir.

PD-: Oh, kvark.

They're gonna hurt PD.

Come on, we've got to help him!

Kneesaa, you and I will go after PD.

Latara, you and Teebo scour around,
and see if you can find Dr. Raygar.

We'll meet you back here.

-But what if they see us?
-Just leave that to me.

Great disguise, Latara.

Okay, so it was the best I could
come up with in a pinch.

We better hurry.

Good luck!

Come on, Teebo.

(MOCK CHIRPING)

Coming, Latara.

(GASPS)

(MOCK CHIRPING NERVOUSLY)

Phew!

That was close, Teebo.

Teebo?

Hey, knock it off.

Hey! He's with me!

Thanks, Latara.

Come on. We have to find the Sunstar.

TEEBO: (GASPS) There it is.

Incredible.

The gem's powers
are virtually without limit.

In fact, why should I
hand it over to the Emperor

when I can use it

-to become Emperor myself?
-(OBJECTS CLATTERING)

Who's there?

Buckethead droids
reporting for clean-up duty.

(MOCK CHIRPING)

I no longer have any need for droids.

Especially when they're only...
Ewoks in disguise.

(YELLING)

You've come so far for the Sunstar.

It's only fitting that you should see
what I have planned.

I'll create the mightiest w*apon
the universe has ever seen.

(GASPS)

And you will be the first
to feel its power.

BOTH: No!

But I don't want to be recycled.

(LAUGHING)

BOTH: Dangar!

(YELLING)

Well, so much for him.

Where is PD?

You saved me.

Come on. I know the way
to Dr. Raygar's lab.

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

First, I'll test my w*apon on you

and then use it to destroy the Emperor.

Once he is gone, I will use
the Sunstar to make me...

Emperor.

(LAUGHING)

(SCREAMING)

-No! Stop!
-Stop!

Meddling Ewoks.

(BOTH EXCLAIM)

No! I won't let you hurt my friends.

(GRUNTS)

PD!

Dangar!

Wicket. No!

(LAUGHING)

(BOTH GRUNTING)

MAN: Emperor's shuttle now commencing
landing pattern.

We're under att*ck!

Someone on the ship
just fired on the Emperor.

What? Find them at once.

(GRUNTS)

I've hit the Emperor's ship too soon.

I'll destroy you for this.

Let him go!

-(YELLS)
-Oh!

Run, Kneesaa.

(GASPS)

Are you okay, PD?

Never better.

(CHIRPING)

Give me the Sunstar.

(YELLS)

Dangar!

(YELLS)

Good going, Wicket.

Now to save Teebo and Latara.

This way, to the landing bay.

No! Come back!

No!

No!

Now, how does Latara do it again?

Oh, yeah.

There they are.

-We're saved.
-Hurray!

BOTH: (SHOUTING)
We're saved!

Dr. Raygar,

you have been charged with high treason
against the Empire.

No. If I only had the Sunstar...

There never was a Sunstar.

It was all part of your treacherous plot.

-What will you do to me?
-Nothing.

The Emperor is going
to punish you himself.

DR. RAYGAR: Not that! I beg you!

No. No!

-(ALL CHEERING)
-Hurray!

The Sunstar.

I'm happy you got your Sunstar back.

Yep. And look at the great reward
Chief Chirpa gave me

for my belt of honor.

Enemy droid parts.

Do you have to go, PD?

You'll always have a home with us.

You really helped us out of a jam.

Thank you.

But my real place is with my true master.

I'll miss you, though.

And we'll miss you too.

(WARBLING)
Ee Chee Wa Wa!

-Bye!
-Bye!

Bye.

You know, Kneesaa.

It's like I always say,

if you help others,
they'll help you some day.

I couldn't agree with you more, Latara.

(GIGGLING)
