12x04 - The Big Sheep

[bunniefuu]

That was a tough rescue!

I thought we'd never get that
dragon off that sea stack.

He was hard to hold on to.

Who knew a Slippery Slickscale
would be so hard to pick up?

Hmm?

Oh, right.

It's in the name.
Now I get that.

Burps, we're almost home, tell your
stomachs they'll be filled soon.

That wasn't me for a change!

I think I know who it was.

Our old friend Gludge.

And by "friend" I
mean the opposite.

Maybe we should fly
home another way.

It'll be okay. We're not
fishing in his cove or anything,

I'm sure he'll leave us...

Whoa!

Alone.

What was that for?

Oh, didn't see you there.

I'm having terrible
heartburn today

and just trying to cool off.

Heartburn?

I thought a stomach
ache was bad,

but a burning heart
sounds even worse!

Heartburn is like a
stomach ache, Burple.

Okay. Good to know.

Ugh...

I'm really burning up!
Must be something I ate.

Now that's a safe bet.

Hey, try eating some limestone,

that always settles my...

I guess he didn't
feel like talking.

Can we please go home now?

After that rescue, I'm a
little hungry myself...

Huh?

There's an egg in that cove!

And it's surrounded by eels!

Looks like it's a
two rescue kinda day.

Rescue Riders, let's wing it!

Sum, the egg!

Ouch!

- I got it!

All right, the egg is safe.
Let's get out of here!

Any idea what kind
of egg it is, Ley?

Well, it's just the right size
to be a Whistling Windwing.

Hmm, yes, Whistling
Windwing, definitely!

But their eggs are
purple, not yellow.

Definitely...

except for that.

It also looks like the egg
of a Three-Wing Thrasher...

I thought the same thing!

But I've never heard of
their eggs being so hot.

Uh... Oh, I thought that too.

- You know what I think?
- What?

It's finally time for lunch!

Cutter's right, Ley,
there's no rush.

We can figure it out later.

Okay, let's eat.

- Huh?
- What's that?

Sounds like it's coming from...

The egg!

What's it doing?

I don't know!

Uh... Ow!

It's even hotter now!

We should get it out of here
before it starts a fire!

On it!

Whoa! It is hot!

Even for me!

Whoa-oh-ooh!

What is going on
with that thing?

Oh, no... I think I
finally figured out

what kind of egg it is.

Everyone stand back!

Why?

Because it's a Boomback egg!

Look out!

Whoa!

The baby! We're on it!

Wait. This is how
they learn to fly.

Huh?

Any second now.

Gonna spread those wings.

Just so soon.

Really very, very soon.

It's gonna be great...

Winger go!

Got it!

Nope, I don't.

Well, hello there.

Huh, he's not hot at
all. Super cute though!

I guess now we know how
Boombacks get their name.

Yeah, we stand back

while they go boom.

Boombacks are fire
dragons like Aggro,

except for the heating up and
exploding out of their shell thing.

Good thing we got it out
of the roost in time.

Aww.

Hmm.

I think you mean "awww."

No, I just remembered
something...

Boomback eggs always
come in pairs.

Not the fruit.

So where's the other egg?

Sure hope those
eels didn't get it.

If they did,

they'd probably have
a pretty bad case of

heartburn, am I right?

Uh, did you say "heartburn?"

There!

You better stay back unless
you wanna get blasted again.

I can't control it.

This burning is
getting worse and...

Worse!

That's actually why we're here.

Gludge, do you think you
could have accidentally eaten

a dragon egg this morning?

Nuh-uh, no way,

I would never eat a dragon egg.

You accidentally ate me once.

Oh. Right.

Maybe it's possible
I ate a dragon egg,

but who has time to look at every
little thing they put in their mouth?

Uh, everyone.

Do you mind if we check
inside your mouth to be sure?

I don't think it's in
there but be my guest.

Ah.

Not it!

Oh, no,

I've already been in there
once, I am not going in again.

It'll be okay, Sum,
we'll make it quick.

Gludge, just promise
not to swallow, okay?

Just don't be delicious
and I won't have to.

Yuck!

See anything in there?

I see... he still hasn't
started brushing his teeth.

Unfortunately what I
don't see is an egg.

I didn't say I had
mouthburn, did I?

I was afraid of this.

Me too.

Wait, what were we afraid of?

If the egg isn't in his mouth,

he must have swallowed it and
it's in one of his stomachs.

One of his stomachs?

Sea Gronckles have more than
one stomach, like Burple.

I have four.

Seven.

Whoa!

And just like Burps,

he can store things inside
them for a long time.

A lot of good that does us now.

Actually, it does.

If Gludge swallowed the egg and
he's still having heartburn,

it means it's still in there.

And how does that help?

What I'm trying to say is...

someone needs to go inside.

And I'm not just
talking about his mouth.

- What?!
- Huh?!

Did you say inside?!

Inside where?

Your stomachs. It's the
only way to save the egg.

Did you say inside?!

I-I think you
already asked that.

I know, but it's
such a crazy idea,

I had to ask it again!

I've already been
in his mouth twice,

no way I'm going
into his stomachs.

Don't worry, Sum,
you're too big anyway.

I think...

Aggro is the one who has to go.

What?! Uh-uh, no way!

Cutter's pretty
small, he could go!

Oh no, don't put
this on me, Aggro!

Cutter's body might be small,

but his head isn't.

Plus his spikes could
hurt Gludge's... insides.

Good call.

Gludge no likes the spikes.

Oh, I've never been so grateful

for my giant head and sharp
spikes before in my life!

You're... really
serious about this?

If we don't get that
egg out of Gludge,

it could hurt him when it
hatches and explodes open.

Gludge got himself
into this mess,

he can get himself out!

Maybe he'll learn to
look before he eats.

I'm floating right here.

I know.

I'll go too.

Think of what an amazing
experience it could be!

We'll learn so many new
things for my Dragon Diary!

The key word is
yourdragon diary.

Aggro, not only is
Gludge in danger,

so is the baby fire
dragon inside that egg.

You had to bring the
baby into it, didn't you?

Fine, I'll go.

But that doesn't mean
I have to like it.

I'm not so thrilled
about the idea either.

This Gloopberry lantern should
help us see in his stomachs.

Do you really want to?

Couldn't I just "light
the night" in there?

I think Gludge's heartburn
is bad enough already.

Hmm. Good point.

Gludge, once we find the egg,

we'll fly back into your
mouth and you can let us out.

Everyone else, wait out
here and keep him steady.

What happens outside
could affect us inside.

The "wait out here" part

sounds great.

Gludge can't move or eat.

Hmm?

I never agreed to that.

There's an egg in your stomach
that is going to explode.

You can eat some other time.

Oh.

Fine.

You better be fast though.

Trust me, I want this
over as quickly as you do.

Ah!

Remind me never to land
on anyone else's tongue.

Yuck.

Okay, Agg, get ready
for Operation, um...

"Can't Believe
We're Doing This?"

Whoa! Works for me!

Whoa!

- What's that?
- I have no idea!

Whoa!

Uh...

Whoa!

This is so... So...

- Amazing!
- Disgusting!

- Wow!

- Hmm?
- Don't get too close to those...

They're filled with
the stomach acid

Gludge uses to digest his food!

You don't have to tell me twice.

Let's just hope
the egg is in here.

Eugh.

Whoa. Gludge sure ate a
lot of Rainbow Pike today.

Lot of Rainbow Pike.

In fact, looks like
it's all he ate.

But I don't see
any Boomback egg.

Me neither. Which means...

we have to go deeper.

Ugh. I was afraid you
were going to say that.

Hey, that must be the
entrance to his next stomach!

Fascinating!

Does she have to be
so excited about this?

Can I eat just one
tiny little lobster?

No.

One tiny Sea Bass?

- Sea Bass aren't tiny,

and no.

How about...

Gludge, Dak Leyla
said, no eating,

no moving, remember?

Fine.

Then I'll just have
one tiny speckled...

No!

At least he's not moving.

- But those are!

Look out... Eels!

Did you say eels?

Shoo. Shoo! Get away!

Way to jinx it, Burps.

Whoa!

Ah! Shoo!

Gludge, stop moving! We'll
take care of the eels!

So do it already.

Was that fast enough for you?

No.

Whatever that was,
I think it's over.

- Whoa!

- What is it now?

I don't see any eels.

Not eels. Those.

I'm very ticklish.

Guess we'll take
care of those too!

Whew. You okay, Agg?

Should have kept my
mouth closed, but sure.

I'm okay.

- What is going on out there?

Gludge, what is it now?

I thought I saw a bee.

Okay.

- Hopefully...

That won't happen again
so I don't get another

face-full of Gludge's breakfast?

Something like that.

Interesting.

This stomach seems to only have

Speckled Snapper in it...

And a Boomback egg?

Please tell me you also
see a Boomback egg.

Sorry. I think we have to...

Go deeper? I get it.

Wait, that's it!

The egg?

No, I think I just figured out
how Gludge's stomachs work!

There's nothing n this stomach

but Striped Sea-Bass which means

Gludge can somehow
sort what he eats!

Isn't that amazing?

Of course! So great to learn!

I know, right?

I was kidding!

Can we please find the
egg and get outta here?

Uh, right. The egg.

Did you say "egg?"

Who said that?

I don't know, but
it sounded like...

Oscar? From Flyhopper Island?

That's me! Long time no see.

Oscar, how long have
you been in here?

A few weeks, maybe a month?

Wait, you've been living
in here for that long?

It's really not as
bad as it sounds.

Food, shelter...

more food.

But don't you want to leave?

Well, yes and no.

I mean, it is sort
of gross in here.

You've got the stomach acid
and the occasional back burp.

But it's also been kinda
nice getting a little break

from being "King
of the Flyhoppers."

Whoa, go back...

back burp?

Yeah, that's right.

If you touch the top
of any of the stomachs,

you could trigger one.

That's actually how
I ended up in here.

Have a lot less acid

and much better
fish, let me tell ya.

I should've known that Giant
Sea Gronkles can back burp...

It's another thing they have
in common with Rockspitters.

Uh, I love learning too.

But now's not really the time!

We have to find that egg!

Oh, that's right,
you mentioned an egg.

I saw one earlier today.

You did?

Oscar, where is it?

Oh, uh...

I'm not sure.

I tried to stop it
as it rolled past

but it was really
hot and, well...

It's probably in stomach
four, five or six by now.

Hopefully not the last stomach.

"Unlucky number seven"
is what I call it.

Nothing makes it out of there.

Hmm.

Ugh, I know that look.

We're going even
deeper, aren't we?

Yep.

Oscar, do you want
to come with us?

Sure! Might as well see what other
kinds of fish are in here, right?

I mean so we can get you out.

Oh, right! Of course.

Uh, can't wait to return
to life on I can't land.

Hmm.

No seagulls up here!

And no eels down there!

No bees, flies, moths,
or mosquitoes' either!

Shoo! Shoo! Get outta here!

Cutter, how's it going keeping
Gludge entertained so he doesn't eat?

Well...

Not funny or entertaining.

Do something else.

Ha-ha!

That's even worse.

I wish you were on
stage right now,

so I could yell, "Get
off the stage right now."

Everyone's a critic.

Hmm. This stomach
looks to be filled

with nothing but seashells!

And some of them are huge!

Much smaller on
the inside. Help!

We gotcha, Oscar!

Whoa!

What is it now?

I-I-I d-d-don't

kn-kn-know!

Uh, W-what is happening?!

It must be the Boomback egg!

If it's shaking, that means
it's going to hatch soon!

I think you mean explode soon!

"Explode?"

On second thought,
I'll stay in here.

Oh, no you won't!

Whoa!

Hurry! We have to find it now!

Is this even helping?

I d-don't know,

but it f-f-feels
k-k-kinda ni-i-i-ice,

doesn't it?

Maybe for you!

I really hope Leyla and
Aggro find that egg soon!

Just... Whoa!

Rocks and weird
glowy algae in here!

What doesn't this guy eat?

Good question. Whoa!

If the egg's not in here,

Wait! Is that a
tablet from Valantis?

Whoa!

No!

There's no time, Leyla!

Where are the fish?

This stomach appears
to be full of

all kinds of
treasures of the sea!

In other words, we're
in the junk stomach.

Everyone, spread out!

See anything?

Not yet!

Unfortunately, it
doesn't look like

the "junk" in here
includes the egg!

Oh boy.

Whoa!

Don't touch the ceiling!

Wait! Over there!

The egg!

C'mon, let's get it out of...

H-h-h-h-here! Oof!

I don't think flying will
work! It's about to hatch...

You'll never make it out in
time carrying the egg and us!

Of c-c-ourse I will...

Whoa!

Okay, maybe I c-c-can't!

But if we c-c-an't f-f-fly out,

How are we g-getting
out of here?!

Hmm?

Huh?

I know.

We'll trigger a back burp
by hitting the ceiling!

What?

But that'll take us

We'll never make
it out of there!

Just trust me.

And help me with this
sail. I have a plan.

Ah!

What are they doing in there?

Oscar, fling this up to
the top of the stomach.

Time for a back burp.

Wow. I did not expect
this to be the plan.

Let's just t-t-try
it a-a-lready!

But... if we do this,

I'll be blasted out too!

I'm not sure I
wanna go back yet!

What?

You have no idea how
exhausting it is being king!

And don't get me
started on using my...

Kingly voice.

It's very hard on the throat!

This has been a nice
little vacation, you know?

Vacation's over, Oscar!

- Whoa!
- Gotcha.

Thanks!

Oscar, I can't throw this
lantern all the way up there

and Aggro has to
hold on to the egg.

It has to be you.

Okay, okay. Let's do this!

Whoa!

Did it work?

I think so!

Get ready!

Hold on!

And I thought back burps
were bad from the outside!

Five!

Four! Three!

Two!

Hey, Speckled Snapper!

Hmm?

What is it, Gludge?

You might not want to be flying
in front of me right now.

Stand back!

Uh guys...

Hey, relax, the other guy
did this too, remember?

Are you sure?

Not falling for it twice.

He's getting low.

He's going to fly
any second now...

Dak...

Wing, let's go!

That was painful.

But again, very cute.

You're welcome.

Did I just back burp?
Through my mouth?

Uh... kinda.

Yuck.

Hey, is that... Oscar?

He looks pretty small
to be a Rescue Rider.

That's because I'm
not a Rescue Rider.

I am Oscar...

King of the Flyhoppers.

At least, I am now that
my vacation's over.

Wait, you were in
my stomach too?

Hmm. Maybe I should start
looking at what I eat.

You're just realizing that now?

You don't have to apologize.

Like you said, I'm pretty small,

it was a simple mistake.

I didn't apologize.

Oh.

Thanks for the
help, Rescue Riders.

Let's never speak
of this again, okay?

Won't be a problem for me.

What was that for?

Didn't see you there.

C'mon your majesty,
we'll take you home.

Ah!

Aww, so cute!

This rescue was so worth it.

Says the guy who
stayed outside Gludge.

Aggro, was it

that had the seashells in it?

Uh, what happened to "never
speak of this again"?

It's for my Dragon Diary!

Oh, and which
stomach had all those

Speckled Snapper that
got in your mouth?

You got fish from Gludge's
stomach in your mouth?

Leyla!

Sorry!
