we heard about?

We got wishes that need fulfilling!

[cash register ding]

Ah! This is the fountain, all right.

What do you got?

I want my baby teeth to fall out

and my adult ones to grow in.

Ha-ha! Okay.

I want to make sure

my legs don't randomly fall off ever.

Uh

Wish already granted.

- I need a new walker, critically.

- [rattling]

The fountain can grant all these wishes

except that last one.

It doesn't want to do that last one ♪

- [old woman] Whoa!

- [clatters]

And now if there are any other wishes,

please don't hesitate

[Arlo] I have a wish.

[people gasp] Huh?

[twinkles]

My dad told me to get myself

something nice with this.

But [grunts] I'd like to use it

to get him a birthday present.

[grunts]

My dad collects eggs.

So I wish for a rare condor egg,

like the one plopped on top

of that big building in the city.

- The pointy, tall one

- Huh?

- [groans]

- looks like a Christmas tree?

- [dramatic music plays]

- [thunder crashes]

- Hmm

- Think the fountain can do it for me?

I don't know.

That wish is pretty far from the fountain.

I'm not sure it has enough moisture

- to grant you your wish.

- Mm.

If the fountain can't grant his wish,

then I want my money back.

- [crowd clamoring]

- Mm-hmm. I'm taking my coin back!

And this one for interest!

No, no, no, no! Stop! Stop, okay!

The The fountain will grant Arlo's wish!

- It will?

- It will?

Don't you think the fountain

might be over-extending itself?

No way! The fountain is fine.

Ugh!

The fountain is granting Arlo's wish.

So, magic fountains aren't real?

No, sweetie. Well, not this one at least.

- Thanks for ruining my dreams, lady!

- Come into my town and do all this

What is this? What're you doing?

I had a good thing going.

Marcellus, I had to intervene.

You were over-extending yourself.

You almost died.

What? [scoffs] I was fine.

How do you even know it was me?

I did it for the cash.

I [scoffs] don't even care

if Arlo ended up getting the egg.

Don't worry.

I made sure his wish was granted.

He asked me

to give the fountain this in return!

Tell the kid

the fountain did this one for free.

You got it. [kisses]

[giggles] Stay hydrated, Marcellus.

Hmm.

Ew. I don't know what that was.

Who needs an incredibly valuable coin

when you're literally swimming in cash?

[gasps] Hey, where's my cash?

[coins clinking]

As long as they're happy.
