12x02 - The Incredible Burple

[bunniefuu]

Okay Cutter, first
thing you have to do

is flap high into the air.

Uh, I thought you said

I was gonna learn
something new today.

Just trust me!

I’ve been trying to
figure out this tablet

from the sunken city
of Valantis for weeks,

and I think I finally
know what it says.

OK, now, spin!

Really, really fast!

OK, this is kinda new!

And kinda fun to watch.

Maybe for you! Whoa...!

Uh, is there a step three?

’Cause I can’t do
this forever...!

Step three is aim at the target

and... fire!

Aaaah!

Whoa!

Now, that’s power!

Yeah. Even I’m impressed.

Eh, I never doubted
it for a second.

Uhhh...

But still kinda dizzy.

What else is on
those tablets, Ley?

- Yeah!
- Hmm.

From what I can tell, this
one’s all about crystals.

I think it says that if
Winger’s near a green crystal

it’ll give him an extra blast
before he has to recharge.

Huh? Love the sound of that!

I’ve got a green one!

One! Two! Three!

Four!

Whoa! That’s way cooler
than three blasts!

Well, it’s one cooler.

Hey, Leyla. What’s
on this last tablet?

Ooh, can it tell me how
to get a fifth stomach?!

- Aah!

Sorry, Leyla.

Hey, I think there’s a
prize inside this one!

Huh?

What is that?

I don’t know,

but it looks like it’s
made out of metal.

Metal?

Then I think I know
who we need to talk to.

Ahh. Whatever it is, it’s
really jammed in there.

You think you can get it out?

I think you came
to the right place.

Small hammer.

Mmm... Interesting.

This will require precision
and... just the right touch!

Got it!

Uh, thanks, Hannahr.

Is it another tablet?

Wait! I think this one
is about crystals, too.

Really? Some new kind
we don’t know about?

That can give Winger
five power blasts?!

Actually, it’s bigger than that.

Five megablasts?!

OK, I’ll just let you tell me.

I think this tablet says

that hidden somewhere in
the sunken city of Valantis

are two crystals taken from
the back of a Bewilderbeast.

Bewilder-what now?

The legendary Alpha Dragon?

Exactly! And if I’m
understanding this correctly,

whoever has these Alpha Crystals has
the power to control dragons too.

Come on, we’ve gotta tell
the others about this!

Uncle, you hear
that?! They said...

- Crystals that can
control dragons.

Of course I heard it, I was
skulking right next to you!

Can you imagine what we could
do with that kind of power?

We could take over the world!

I can take over the world
any time I want, Axel.

I’m a genius, after all.

But if we had those crystals, we
could do something even better!

Make the dragons leave
Huttsgalor once and for all!

Uh... or take over the world.
You’re really not going for that?

Come along, Axel. We’ve
got a lot of work to do

if we’re going to find those crystals
before the Scaly Spoiler Squad.

This tablet says that
with the Alpha Crystals,

someone can make a dragon
do anything they want.

Even make a dragon skip lunch?

Or skip dinner?

Or even skip breakfast?!

Uh, Burps, I think
"anything" means anything.

But it’s the most
important meal of the day!

We can’t let those crystals
fall into the wrong hands.

C’mon, we’ll use our diving gear to
go back to Valantis and find them.

Dak, I don’t know about this.

Those crystals have been hidden
for a very, very long time.

Maybe they should stay hidden.

I, for one,

completely agree with Winger.

Those crystals are
none of our business

and we should not try
to find them. Hmph!

Burps, you just don’t
wanna go back to Valantis

and face those giant
eels again, right?

Or the giant octopus.

What do you think, Ley?

I think... uh...

it’s safer if we just leave
the crystals where they are.

We’re the only ones who
know about them, right?

Rescue Riders!

Oh sure, just come on in.

Axel, what are you doing here?

I’m here to warn you.

My Uncle knows all about
the Alpha Crystals.

- What?!

How could he know about
the Alpha Crystals?!

I don’t know,

but it’s not because
we were spying on you

when you were talking about
them at Hannahr’s workshop.

Hey, we’re Finkes,
what did you expect?

The point is, my uncle
is at his workshop

building an underwater
Mechano-Dragon right now.

He won’t stop until he
finds the crystals and...

Uses them to make the dragons
leave Huttsgalor forever.

- How’d you know?
- Lucky guess.

Pfft! Even if Magnus could build some
kind of underwater Mechano-Dragon,

he’ll never be able to
find Valantis on his own.

He has a map.

OK, sounds like he
can find Valantis.

Axel, why are you
telling us this?

We may not be the best of
friends, Rescue Riders,

but you guys have saved
me a bunch of times

and I feel like I owe you.

Thanks, Axel.

I was talking about the dragons.

All right, change of plans.
We’re going back to Valantis!

Yeah!

Whoo-hoo!

I have to say, it’s kinda
cool being down here again.

I really hope we don’t see any
more of those giant deep sea eels.

C’mon, let’s find
those crystals fast!

Whoa! Back-bubble
booster blast.

Forgot he could do that.

And I forgot never to
swim behind Burple. Ugh!

Whoo-hoo!

Come on, Valantis is this way!

Uh, I think.

Whoa. It’s even more
amazing than I remember!

And wetter!

Ah! That joke is even
funnier than I remember.

Great, we’re bringing
that back too.

It looks like we got
here before Magnus.

But not before a
giant eel! Look out!

That’s not an
eel. It’s Magnus!

Ahh, Rescue Runts.

My Mechano-Eel is
quite impressive, no?

I do appreciate you leading us
here so I could test it out.

Leading you? I
thought you had a map.

Oh, yeah, about that.

When I said, my uncle had a map.

I meant he didn’t,

which is why we
had to follow you.

Sorry!

So Axel tricked us... again.

Magnus, leave this city alone.

It’s a great part
of history and...

"Great"? What’s
great about a city

where Vikings were
friends with dragons?

That’s probably why it sank.

Now, if you’ll excuse us, we
have some Alpha Crystals to find.

But where to search first...?

Come on, guys!

We can’t let him find the
secret dragon library!

Oh! Did you say
dragon library?

Is that where the crystals are?

Oops!

But which one of these buildings

is the library, Uncle?

Hmm.

Aha! The purple
one gave it away!

See you later Rescue Runts!

Uh, did I miss something?

Sure hope we all did.

The tablet doesn’t say the Alpha
Crystals are hidden in the library,

it says they’re hidden in
one of the statues out here.

So while Magnus and Axel are in
there searching the library...

We’ll be out here
finding the crystals.

Great idea, Leyla!

But wait. Burple, how did you
know how to help Leyla’s plan

and point out the
library to Magnus?

Well, the thing is...

Yeah, I didn’t. It
was an accident.

Ah, this must be the place!

As you can see Axel, your uncle
has thought of everything.

Soon the Alpha
Crystals will be mine!

Ya didn’t think of that!

Didn’t I? Ha ha ha ha!

Aah!

Oohhhhh...!

Aaaah! Ohhh.

But... How did you...?

As I’ve said a hundred times,

Axel, I’m a genius.

Now, where was I?

Oh, right! Soon the Alpha
Crystals will be mine!

You sure these crystals are
hidden in a statue, Ley?

That’s what the tablet
says. Just keep trying.

You push, I pull.

No, you push, I pull.

Oops. Knew I should’ve pulled.

Look! Valantis
had a Haggis, too!

It’s OK, ancient sunken Haggis,

I don’t have the crystals
inside me either.

Any luck?

Wait. What about that one?

Way too obvious.

Yeah, you’re probably right.

Well, I’m stumped.

Oh no! I think you
broke that one!

Or I found the secret
crystal hiding place!

Totally by accident.

What’s your point?

Of course.

We’re going into the dark
and spooky underwater tunnel.

I don’t see any crystals yet.

Does the tablet say
anything else, Ley?

It does but I can’t quite
figure out what it means.

Something about two
ancient dragons?

Or fish? Or both.

Did you say ancient?!

Ohh. I can’t handle ancient!

Burple, ancient just means old.

Oh. I might be able
to handle that.

Or maybe I was right
the first time!

Is that a bubble att*ck?!

Whatever it is, I don’t like it!

I’ve heard of taking a bubble bath
before, but this is ridiculous!

Whoa! Oh no!

I think I just figured out
this part of the tablet.

It says the crystals are protected
by two ancient dragon guardians!

You’re just figuring
that out now?!

Whoa!

Burple, look out!

Help! I’ve been bubbled!

Gotcha, Burps! Ahh, yahh!

Aw.

Whoa!

Thanks!

I got an idea.

Back-bubble booster blast!

No bubbles are
stopping us! C’mon!

Bubble em’ again, Bubbley!

You too, Bobbley!

Wait! We’re friends
of Valantis!

Hmm?

Are you really
friends of Valantis?

And not just tricking us to make us
think you’re friends of Valantis?

’Cause that would be
totally not awesome!

Totally.

Uh, you "totally" lost me.

We’re the Rescue Riders. We’re here
to help protect the Alpha Crystals.

Huh?

Ohhh! In that
case, come on in!

Yeah! Our secret
ancient crystal chamber

is your secret ancient
crystal chamber!

You’re Bubblegill
dragons, right?

Yeah, how do you know that?

My sister knows a
lotta stuff like that.

We also know you’re the ancient
crystal guardians, right?

Totally!

Ha ha ha!

Well, except for
the "ancient" part.

We just got this sweet job.

Took over for our Great-Uncle
Babbley a couple a weeks ago.

But we know we’re
gonna be awesome at it!

Give me some fin, brah!

Cha!

See, the ancient
crystal guardian thing

has been passed from Bubblegill to
Bubblegill for hundreds of years.

But did you also know that Alpha
Crystals don’t affect Bubblegills?

Which is what makes us the most
awesome crystal guardians of all.

Well, now’s your
chance to prove it.

A very bad guy named Magnus Finke is
coming to steal the Alpha Crystals.

Oh, don’t you worry, he
won’t find them in here.

- He won’t?
- No way!

That was the first totally awesome
decision we made when we took over.

Yeah, keeping the crystals
here seemed way too obvious.

So we put ’em in
a much safer place

where there’s a ton of
other cool ancient stuff.

You didn’t happen to put them
in the dragon library, did you?

Totally!

Uh, why does everybody look
super bummed all of the sudden?

Ohh. Not here! Or here!

Where could these
confounding crystals be?!

Wait, Uncle! Uh,
what about over here?

Axel, please. Ancient crystals
hidden behind tablets about crystals?

Only a fool would
hide them there.

Aha! I knew they’d
be hidden here!

Yes! The Alpha
Crystals are mine!

Now I’ll finally be able to rid Huttsgalor
of those Rescue Runts once and for all!

- And then take over the world?

No? You’re really not even
considering that at all?

All right, team,

Bubbley and Bobbley are
too bummed out to help us,

so it’s up to us to find those
crystals before... Oh, no!

OK, uh, but we
still can’t give up.

Dragons, come to
your new leader!

Huh?

Er, I said come to me now!

Uh, is something supposed to be
happening? ’Cause I don’t feel it.

Wait, I feel something!

- Nope, false alarm.
- Ohh.

These things must be broken...

like everything else
in this wretched place.

C’mon, let’s grab
those crystals!

Ahh! Ohh!

Lobsters?

Mmm, lobster!!

This is horrible!

Aaaaah!

Work, you grating,
grime-covered gems. Work!

Uncle, I really think
I can figure it out!

Uhh! Whoa! That-that sound...

Wing, you okay?

I-I don’t know...

Wing? Wing, where
are you going?

To my leader.

It worked!

Dragon, lift your wing!

- Huh?

Now spin in a circle and then
do a little swimmy dance!

Unhh!

Aha-ha-ha... Ohh!

Protect your leader!

Whoa!

No one told you to stop dancing!

Oh, no! Winger is really
under Magnus’s control?!

He must be! I’ve never
seen him dance like that!

Now, who should I control next?

Maybe the water dragon!

No Sum, fight it!

Oh, not Summer, too!

There’s no way I’m letting
those crystals control...

Ha ha!

- Uhh...
- Huh?

Me...

Oh no! I think I’m next!

No, you’re not! Most crystals don’t
work on Rockspitters, remember?

Leyla’s right! Which means
you can save the day!

I can? I can!

It’s Burple from below!

Uncle, look out!

Aaah! Hmm?

Uh, OK. Maybe, Alpha Crystals
do work on Rockspitters.

Sorry, Rotten Riders,

but your dragons are mine now.

Come, my loyal lizard lackeys!

It’s time to follow
your marvelous leader

far, far away from Huttsgalor!

- And maybe take over the world on the way?
- Give it a rest.

- Ley, what are we gonna do?!
- Wait!

Crystals only work when dragons
are close to them, right?

So we have to find a way to get the
dragons away from the Alpha Crystals!

- But how?
- I have an idea!

We really messed up with
those crystals, huh, Bubbley.

This is the opposite of awesome.

I agree, Bobbley. We
totally let ourselves down.

And those Rider Rescuers, too.

It’s actually "Rescue Riders."

And you guys are still the
totally awesome crystal guardians.

We are?

And you have a job to do.

We do?

Of course! It doesn’t matter
if you made a mistake.

Yeah, everybody makes mistakes.

What you do after
is what counts.

Really?

Totally!

It’s really amazing, Uncle.

They’re following
our every move!

Oh, this is the
greatest day of my life

You know what would make
it even greater, Uncle?

Using the dragons to take
over the worl... Aaah!

After we deal with
whatever that was.

Oh, hi, Magnus. Meet our
new friends the Bubblegills!

They’re gonna help us
get those crystals back.

Totally!

I don’t care what they are.

I just want them to...
stop right there!

Cha! Was that supposed
to do something, Bubbley?

I don’t know, Bobbley.

Huh? Guh! Guh!

Fun fact, Magnus. Alpha Crystals
don’t work on Bubblegills.

There’s nothing fun
about that fact!

Dragon minions, att*ck!

Unhhh!

You chase him,
and you chase him!

No, no, the other him!
Block that bubble!

Faster!

Look out!

Whoops! Sorry, Winger!

Huh?

This tickles.

Those bubbleheads
are b*ating us!

Axel, do something!

Pop those bubbles with spikes!

Ehh...

Well, that was obviously
a terrible idea you had.

After them!

Bubble ’em, Bubbley!

After you, Bobbley!

Ah! The crystals!

Thanks for the crystals, Magnus!

Nooo! I’m getting
those crystals back

if it’s the last thing I do!

Aaaah!

This isn’t over!

Lobsters, set me free!

Oh! Ow!

Ow, get off! Off, I say!

This is the finger of a genius!

You’re all free, guys!

Huh?

Huh? What happened?

You were all under
Magnus Finke’s control.

But not anymore.

Thanks to these guys!

Aww, don’t mention it!

But we totally gotta
thank you, too!

Cha! For helping us be
totally even more awesome!

And don’t worry,

we’ll never let the Alpha
Crystals out of our sight again!

Uh, guys?

Oops, starting now.

I can’t believe I was
mind-controlled by Magnus Finke.

Yeah, I really, really did not
like taking orders from that guy.

He didn’t make me do anything
embarrassing, did he?

Nah, that little
swimmy dance you did

was not embarrassing... at all.

Swimmy what?
