04x05 - The Night Lights: Part 1

[bunniefuu]

-See anything?

I'll take that as a no.

Hold up. We got another one.
Down there, pal!

Buzzsaw.

Looks like we just missed him.

-You wanna do the honors?

-Good job. Let's head home.

What is it? Buzzsaw?
Whoa, whoa, wait up!

Is that what I think it is?

You two obviously know
each other, don't you?

Wait. Is... is this
your little brother?

Yeah!
Yeah, I see the resemblance!

-Oof! Ah!

Whoa! Whoa!
Okay, okay. You're friendly.

-Nice to meet you, too.

Whoa!

Hey, oh, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no.

-Th-th-that's not a toy.

-Uh-oh.

That snare got him pretty good.

We should take him
back to the lair.

Be a good idea to have
Dr. D check that leg.

-Uh-oh. This is serious.

I'm afraid he has
a severe case of...

adorable!

-Oh, just look at him!

The cutest baby!

-Oh, I said "baby," Wei.

-He is cute,

but is he lair-trained?

-I doubt it. I found him
in the Ice Realm all alone.

-The Ice Realm? Strange.

Thunder doesn't seem like
an Ice Realm dragon.

Did you get lost? Did you?

Did you wander from home?
Poor thing.

-Maybe you should wash it.
We don't know where it's been.

-Don't listen to Auntie Alex.
She's glad you're here.

-What's his name?

-I was calling him Little Pal.

-Lame.

You can do better than that,
Kullersen. He's cool.

He needs a cool name,
like Blood Shadow.

Or Death Shadow.

Or Blood Death Shadow!

-Okay.
That's dark, even for me.

-Ooh, wait a sec!

How about we call him
Shadow of the Dark?

-Maybe just Shadow.

-Whoa, you finally finished
your lightning sword!

-Yeah. Shadow thinks it's a toy.

-Ah!

Maybe that's not
the best toy for him?

-Okay. Come here, Shadow.

Hand Uncle Tommy
the dangerous lightning sword.

Thanks, pal.

-No! Stop it! That's mine!

How long are we planning
on keeping him here?

-I don't know. I just wanna
make sure his leg is okay.

-Yes! I agree.
And that could take a while.

-His leg is so cute!

-If he's going to stay here,
we need more supplies.

-Think you can keep an eye
on Shadow while we're gone?

Alright, everyone,
time for a supply run!

-Everybody got
what they came for?

-Medical supplies, check.

No boo-boo is too big.

-We got snacks!
Okay, we overdid it.

-These are more for us.

Parenting is hard work,
and self-care is vital.

-Never fear, Eugene is here!

What? It's a chew toy.

-That's actually
a really great idea, Eugene.

-Sure, but where
did you get a tire?

-Don't worry about it, Jun Bug.
It's all good.

-Huh?

-But, we should
probably get going.

-Tom?
-Ah! Mom! Hey!

-Where are you guys
going with all that stuff?

-Oh, we're, uh, we're going...

-Birdwatching! Yeah, gonna...

watch some birds.

-That sounds... nice.

-Yeah. Yeah, it's fun.

Gonna see what the old birds
are up to.

-Why is Eugene rolling a tire?

-To hide behind!

-Yeah, so the
...

birds can't... watch us back.

-Okay...

-Be home by curfew.
-I will!

We're back!

-And we brought--

treats...

-Shadow!

You stepped on Jun's bag
of Cheesy Loops!

Luckily, mine are still intact.

-Is he a handful, pal?

Wow. He really wants
to get outta here.

-Well, he is just a baby.
He probably misses his family.

-Aw. You wanna go home?

-I think you're right.
Hold on a sec.

His family is
Thunder's family, right?

So if he knows the way,
he can lead us to your home.

-Baby Night Lights are fast!

I think he's just extra excited.

-Whoa, whoa, whoa.
So let me get this straight.

Nobody wants me
to be the leader,

but you're all cool
following a baby?

-Yep. Totally accurate.

-I never got
the baby thing either.

Cute, but useless.

-Whoa, whoa! Hold on, pal!

We're just gonna
jump in some hole?

-It looks like a burrow.

-Something's glowing down there.

This is more than just a burrow.

-Whoa! Whoa!

-You heard the dragon.

-Whoa. What is this place?

-It's another realm,

completely different
from all the others.

-Oh, I'm pretty sure danger's
lurking around every corner,

just like all the others.

-An entrance to another realm,

and nobody spotted this before?

-It's a big realm, Eugene.

-Make excuses if you want,

but you should expect more
from your dragons.

You totally knew about this,
didn't you, Webs?

-Okay, are you guys
clocking this?

Bioluminescent fungus?

-These plants look like
the ones Tom and I saw

growing at the bottom
of the fissure.

-Wait, are you saying we might
be underneath the bottom

-of the fissure right now?
-Guys, over here!

It's some kind of chest.

-Another Viking artifact?

-Maybe, but I don't see
any symbols on it.

Something feels off.

-I bet it's full of gold,
or diamonds!

-Is Shadow okay?
He seems agitated.

-He's just anxious to get home.

Don't worry, little guy.
We'll go in a minute.

-After I score all the riches!

-What!? Just a bunch
of gears and turny things.

-Ugh, lame!

-Gears?
-Booby trap!

-Booby what?

-What the heck, Kullersen?
-Me? You opened it!

-How was I supposed
to know it was a trap?

What kind of idiot puts a trap
in a treasure chest?

-Boulder!

EUGENE:
Look out!

-More like boulders!

-This whole place is rigged
with booby traps!

-Uh, hello? Most important
member of the club here!

-Help!
-Ugh, Eugene!

-Come on!
-Hurry up!

Whoa!

-Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Hold up, Plow.

TOM:
What is it, D?

-Looks like another booby trap.

-Who do you think set these up?
Buzzsaw?

-I don't know, but I don't
think we should cross them.

-Feathers, no!

-Incoming!

-No, no, no!

-Ooh. That looked rough.

-Let me check you out.
I have an ointment--

-Ah, da-da-da-da-da!
Don't touch the merchandise!

-I'm fine.
Let's just keep going.

Ah!

What the...

Gonna take a lot more
than a net and some rocks

and a tiny dart to take me out.

-You okay, Eugene?

What are you talking about?

Talking's hard.

-Okay, can you feel that?
-Feel what?

-That dart must have
had a numbing agent.

-Think these came from some
kind of ancient dragon hunter?

-No. I don't think these traps
were meant for dragons.

The darts couldn't
break their scales,

and the slingshots
couldn't hurt them either.

-Ah!
-Ah!

-Eugene!

-I'm okay...

-See?
Dragons can fly out of that pit.

These were meant
to keep humans out.

-Out of what?
-Uh, guys?

Probably this.

-This place look familiar, pal?

-Any sign of Shadow?

There!

JUN:
Could be another trap.

-Whoa!

-Two more babies!

-Twice the cuteness,
twice the destructive power.

-You didn't tell me you had
two more siblings!

-You holding out on me?

Whoa, hey! We mean no harm.

Look. His whole family.

Don't worry, guys.
Situation de-escalated.

Come here, Shadow.

-Ah! Ah!

Okay! Not de-escalated!

D'ANGELO: Whatever you do,
don't make any sudden moves.

-Remember,
they're not like Thunder.

They're not used to humans.

-Everyone just take it easy.
Show them we mean no harm.

-Hey, big guy.
You got a scratch.

Here.

Wh-whoa. It's okay. Look.

I got something for that.

-There you go...

-Give it a sec!

-Feels good, right?

-See that? That's you.

-Huh? What do you want?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
No, no, no!

You don't want this!
Bad dragons!

-They're beautiful, pal.

No wonder you wanted
to come back so badly.

I'm sure you missed them.

-He's so happy.

But, you're not. What's wrong?

-Thunder's home.

-Yeah. I thought that
would make you happy.

-I did, too,
but what if he chooses to stay?

I just realized that this...

this might just be goodbye.

This is Tom's voicemail!

But why are you calling me
when you can text?

Get with the times!

-Tom, it is
way past your curfew.

Where are you,
and why aren't you answering?

-Call me back!

-Hey, pal. Have a good flight?

-What's going on?
-I don't know.

It-it's like something's
calling them.

-Guys!

Why are we doing this?

-We're just doing.
What they're doing.
-Why?

-So that whatever comes out
of that cave doesn't k*ll us.

-Fine.

-Hi. I'm Tom.

I'm the one who's been
taking care of Thunder.

Or I guess...

Guess he's been
taking care of me.

-Tom...

-Not a good time, D.
D'ANGELO: Look!

-Shadow.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no.
Not a toy, remember? Not a toy.

That was close.
Sorry! Don't worry.

I'll get rid of this.

-Aaah!

No, no! I'm sorry!
It was a mist--

It's okay! I'm fine!
Everybody relax!

They're just protecting him!
It was a mistake!

Don't do anything
to provoke them!

-Us? These things are K*llers!
Look at them!

-Just stay clear of their blast.

No matter what happens,
do not fire back.

-Whoa! Whoa! Plow, move!

-Wu! Wei! Watch out!

-What do you want me to do, pal?

-Help! Get off!
You little vultures!

-Feathers!

-Stop this!

-Get out of there, Tom!

-I'm not gonna fight!

See? Look!

-I won't hurt you!

-Tom!

-No...

-Thanks for having my back, pal.

-D'ANGELO: Tom!
-Thank goodness!

-What do we do now?

-I think he's saying we're cool,
but we're not cool.

You know what I mean?
-Yeah, I get it.

-We should probably go.

-See you, Shadow. Be good.

-You're so precious.
Come visit again, okay?

-Or don't.
-You're cool.

-But you two suck.

Aah!

-Time to go.

And I guess you're not coming?

-Say what you need to say.
We'll wait.

-I'm gonna miss you.

You're where you belong now.

-You're the best friend
I've ever had.

-You always will be.

Still visit sometimes, okay?

-Take us home, Wu.

-Okay. Whoa!

-What's that?

-I'm gonna miss him so much.

-I know.
-So, uh,

since you don't ride
a dragon anymore,

you can't be a dragon rider.

Which I guess means
you can't be our leader.

-Eugene, this is not the time.

-I'm just saying.
I'm the oldest.

I have a dragon.

I should probably take over

effective immediately.

Oh, you'd like that,
wouldn't you, Webs?

Yes, you would.

-Don't worry about Eugene.

-Yeah. Just remember

all the happiness
Thunder brought you.

That'swhat matters.

-Hold on.

-Shadow!

JUN:
He looks upset.

-What's the matter, little guy?

-We gotta go back.
-Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hold on. Let the dragon riders
who actually havedragons

make that decision.

Ah! Okay. Okay. We'll go back.

-What happened?

Thunder!
