Post by bunniefuu »

now, this is cool.

Picked up in a billionaire's
private jet to check out his

Brand-new hotel before
anybody else.

Now we're talking a summer
vacation. Thanks.

i'd do anything for you
guys. You know that, ben.

how come you never told us
before that you knew
donovan grand smith?

must have slipped my mind.

max tennyson, it's
been way too long.

how are you, donovan?

well, with resorts
worldwide, i'd say pretty good.

Glad you finally decided to see
how the better half lives.

these are my grandkids ben
and gwen.

and this is my grandson
edwin.

hi.
yeah. Whatever.

ready to take the plunge?

you sure this was the
safest place to build a resort
like this?

you're talking underwater
fault lines?

i'm talking more like you're
smack dab in the middle of the
bermuda triangle.

growing up, you always were
the worrywart, max.

Never the risk-taker.

I give you the world's first and
only underwater resort.

You won't believe what's
down here.

the official grand
opening's only a week away.

Just a few special v.I.P.S like
you are getting a sneak peek.

Sure beats that old rusty bucket
of bolts you sleep in, doesn't
it, max?

i read about your resort in
"pacific monthly oceania," mr.
Grand smith.

Very cutting edge.

Isn't the glass reinforced
with--

butt-kisser.

micro-titanium threads to
withstand up to atmospheres.

Nobody gets wet here unless it's
in one of the pools.

very impressive, donovan.

well, for $ billion, it
ought to be.

But, you know, money isn't
everything.

we change the family motto,
grandpa?

hey, i'm into sumo slammers,
too.

Where'd you score that pin?

sumo slammers slam-down v
in helsinki.

We flew on my grandpa's private
jet just to get it.

and edwin says the pin's
already tripled in value.

Kid's got a head for business.

Grooming him to take over the
empire one day.

Gotta keep it in the family.

i've sort of been following
in my grandpa's footsteps this
summer, too.

what happened?

a power surge must have
caused the water to suddenly
recycle itself.

will he be ok?

hmph. If the sharks don't get
him first.

i can't have an employee
turned into fish food right
before the opening.

The press will ruin me.

time for ripjaws to
take a dive.

what was that?

what was what?

oh, man.

For once i was better off as me.

who-oa!

are you ok?

so, where's your cousin?

just hanging.

Uh, anyone have a ladder?

well, i'll have to double
his salary, but he won't breathe
a word.

Anyway, who'd believe him?

He said some -inch rat with
two legs saved him.

buy him off.

Now, that's the
grand smith way.

ahem. Edwin, why don't you
take ben and gwen on a tour so
their

Grandpa and i can catch up on
old times?

oh, man.
ugh.

oh, max, it's too bad you
didn't take me up on my offer
years ago

When we were both dead broke.

You wouldn't have had to spend
your life unclogging drains and

Fixing toilets while i traveled
the world.

you'd be surprised. Being a
plumber can have its moments.

nice.
not bad.

In the morning, i have my own
swim coach and personal trainer
to work out with.

you're a swimmer?

long-distance. My grandpa
says it builds character.

"my grandpa says it builds
character."

Whoa!

it's called the undersea
manta ray.

It's my grandfather's.

well, it looks cool.

you want to take it
for a ride?

definitely.

you sure it's ok?

a reverse power surge
caused the whirlpool effect, but
it's fixed now.

must take a lot of juice to
keep this place lit up.

That can't come from the
mainland.

We're too far offshore.

volcanic vents on
the ocean floor.

We tap into them like a big
steam generator.

hey, what's behind
that panel?

um, nothing.
It's just a backup generator.

Now watch this.

I have enough energy
to illuminate the outside so
bright,

It's visible feet
above sea level.

Now for my prized possession--
the undersea manta ray.

Edwin!

wow! Some of these fish look
totally prehistoric.

Ok. Now, that's weird.

and that's weirder.

what do you think those
creatures want?

i don't think it's to play
marco polo.

we've gotta get back
to the hotel.

Grandpa, do you copy?

turn me into wildmutt,
you're dead meat.

ok, now we're talking.

hey, what happened to
your cousin?

he must have gone
to the bathroom.

ok. Wait. There's no bathroom
on this thing.

just drive!

edwin, you know the undersea
manta ray is off-limits.

we're under att*ck by
creatures, and we're sinking.

edwin, if this is some sort
of--

it's no joke, donovan.

we've got evacuate
the resort now.

overrun by aliens.

There goes my -star rating.

we won't make it back.

where'd that thing
come from?

relax.

It looks like he's on our side.

there's a boat beside
the platform. Take it.

i don't go anywhere without
my grandkids.

Get ready to close the door.

Now.

we're flooding.

They broke the glass.

i knew you shouldn't have
taken it. I knew it.

edwin, quiet. I'm sure it has
nothing to do with this.

taken what, donovan?

edwin doesn't know what he's
talking about.

how would you know? All you
ever hear from me is what you
want to hear.

let's go.


Donovan, what is going on?

ok. The underwater volcano
thing didn't work.

The resort was doomed.

I was about to become a punch
line to a bad joke.

Then i found this other energy
source on this weird craft way
down below.

It was like nothing i'd ever
seen before.

and now i bet those aliens
want it back.

yeah. The same ones with the
underwater parking lot full of
boats and planes.

years on the job,
i never found out who was behind
the bermuda triangle.

Now they're coming for us.

look on the bright
side, grandpa.

You still have resorts
worldwide.

aah!

no!

aah!

no!

donovan, stop this thing.

i can't.

we're gonna be flattened.

we're not gonna make it.

yes, we will. Now, put your
head down and brace for impact.

whoa. Who is--

just another good
alien trying to help us out.

hold on!

look out!

my wings are too wet.
I can't fly. And, oh, yeah.

I can't swim either.

don't worry.
We got you, ben.

that's not ben.

yeah. Right. Good aliens just
showing up to help us

While your cousin always happens
to be gone?

How dumb do i look?

So how do you do it?

edwin, listen to me.

That energy orb--if the aliens
are here for it, we have to get
to it first.

all right.
Let's get it.

But it's all the way on the
other side of the resort.

but we won't
make it in the water.

who said anything about
swimming?

ah, the navy's
closest sub is in key west.

It could be a half-hour before
they're here.

any way to communicate with
the kids down there?

no. I already tried.

The flooding must have ruined
the line.

i don't know what's scarier:
The smell of wet stink or these
aliens.

Edwin, there must be a faster
way to get to the orb. Right?

Aah!

all right!
Now we're talking.

ben!

thanks.
thank you.

That was awesome.

Hey, look out!

your grandkids really
seem to look up to you, max.

What's your secret?

well, i don't expect them to
be many versions of me.

I let them be themselves, faults
and all.

you only brought them here
because they wanted to come, not
because you did.

Am i right?

yeah. This trip was for
them.

i can't remember the last
time i did anything for edwin

That i didn't want.

I just hope they're going
to be ok.

you know, grandkids have an
amazing way of rising to the
occasion.

if that orb can power
this whole resort, just imagine
what those aliens did with it.

stealing all those ships and
planes would be a good guess.

maybe if we reversed the
connections, it would turn its
outward power inward.

and make the whole resort
implode.

with those aliens in it.

good thinking, edwin.

thanks. But we still need to
get out of here.

i have an idea.

how much time do you
think we have?

not much.

get in.

that thing's your
escape plan?

It's only for show.

and when i'm done with it,
it'll be for go.

how did you get that
sub to work?

It hasn't run in years.

it's like i said, donovan.

Grandkids have an amazing way of
rising to the occasion.

the good news is that all
the aliens are toast.

the bad news is that so is
the resort, grandpa.

hey, who cares?

You're all ok, and that's all
that matters.

You'll have to fill me in on the
details, edwin.

most of them.

And the name's eddie, grandpa.

thanks for everything.

no problem.

Well, so much for your
one-of-a-kind resort, donovan.

yeah. Well, it just gives me
more time to focus on my next
one.

It's going up on the moon.

Max, how about you and the kids
being my first guests?

no, thanks.
