[RUMBLING]

[FLOCK BAAING]

[SHEPHERD GRUNTING]

Step lively, men!

[WHISTLES]

I like to step on Toadie.

Ogres! Ogres! Ogres!

I was lucky to escape, sire.

This is the third ogre incident
this week.

Sir Tuxford,
you'd best find out what's going on.

Yes, Your Majesty.

I'll flatten those bums

with a swing to the left
and blow to the right.

Mount up, men!

[NEIGHING]

Ahem. Where do you think you're going?

With you, Sir Tuxford. I wanna help.

This is a job for knights, lad,
not for a simple page.

Sir Tuxford is right, Cavin.

It's much too dangerous for a boy.

CAVIN:
Yes, Your Highness.

KING:
Good luck, men!

I'd bet they'd change their minds
about me

if I could catch an ogre before they do.

Say, that's not such a bad idea.

But I'll need a little Gummi help.

To catch an ogre,
you have to be smarter than an ogre.

Ha-ha-ha. And that's not hard.

We'll probably catch a dozen.

Yeah. When we put our heads together,
nothing can b*at us.

Now, where is an ogre
when you need one?

[HEAVY FOOTSTEPS]

CAVIN:
This is it.

[TRAP WHOOSHING]

- We did it!
- We did it!

CAVIN:
Uh-oh.

Are you daft, lad?
Get me down at once!

I'm sorry, Sir Tuxford.

I thought you were an ogre.

Well, I assure you I'm not.
Uhn!

- But I just want to help.
- I'm sure Cavin meant well.

Maybe so, Princess Calla,

but that's not good enough.

I'm afraid Sir Tuxford is right, Cavin.

Rash behaviour like that
does not befit a true knight.

Oh, I'll never be a knight.

Sure you will.
You've got the knight stuff.

OGRES:
Hup! Hup! Hup! Hup! Hup! Hup!

Hit the dirt.

Hup to it, men.

Dukie looking for a few good ogres
for super-secret mission.

What do you think Igthorn is up to?

No good, that's for sure.

Something is rotten in Drekmore.

And that means trouble for Dunwyn.

ZUMMI:
So, what did you find out, Gruffi?

Nothing. Drekmore is locked up tighter
than a tree troll's treasure chest.

The onIy things getting in or out
are ogres.

Then how are we gonna sneak
into Iggy's castle

- and find out what he's planning?
- I know.

I'll bake a Trojan cake
and we'll hide inside.

Great. We'll be safe all right.
No one will eat it.

Hah. I don't see you coming up
with even a half-baked idea.

The onIy way to get close enough
to Igthorn is to become an ogre.

This spell I found in the Great Book
should do the trick.

All we need is a volunteer.

I'll do it.

Thanks for the offer,
but you're just a kid, kid.

Besides, Cavin, this is a Gummi spell.
It's never been used on a human before.

It might be dangerous.

Look, it's my responsibility.
Dunwyn is at stake.

I can do it.

Stand back. I'm not sure I know
what's going to happen.

Does he ever?

[CHANTING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

CAVIN:
Wow, I'm an ogre! Ha-ha.

Neato!

You sure look like the real thing.

Back to Drekmore,
you foul-breathed fiend.

[IN OGRE VOICE]
Me catch Gummi. Whoa.

- Look out!
- Hey!

Stop fooling around, kid!

You've got a job to do.

[IN NORMAL VOICE]
Heh.

I guess being an ogre takes
some getting used to.

Just don't get too used to it.

What do you mean?

I've got to reverse the spell
by sunrise tomorrow

or you'll be an ogre forever.

Take this, Cavin.

For good luck.

Thanks, partner.

[IN OGRE VOICE]
Me be back soon.

TOADIE:
Left, right, left, right, left, right,

left, right, left, right, left, right,

left, right, left, right,

left, right, left, right, left...

OGRE : Hey, watch your elbow.
OGRE : Lighten up.

Careful.

[FLY BUZZING]

[ALL YELLING & GRUNTING]

You're supposed to go up, not down.

What are you staring at? Throw it!

Okey-dokey, dukie.

Excellent. Now, scale that wall!

OGRE:
Uh-oh.

[OGRES GRUNTING]

- Charge!
- Come on!

This no fun.

[ALL GRUNTING]

TOADIE:
You're next, big fella.

Time to show your stuff.

[IN NORMAL VOICE]
Me?

[IN OGRE VOICE]
Oh-- Me?

Good luck.

You're gonna need it.

Another victim.

[OGRES YELLING]

[GRUNTING]

What's you're name, ogre?

Um... Uh...

Well, Ummuh, good work.

I'll be keeping an eye on you.

That's enough training for now,
Toadwart.

Feed the troops.

[WHISTLES]

Slop's on!

ZOOK: Oh, good.
GAD: Yummy, yummy.

[GROANS]

[IN NORMAL VOICE]
I don't think I can stomach

being an ogre much longer.

TOADIE:
Ten-hut!

[MURMURING]

Tonight at hours--

When sun go down--

I will lead
my cr*ck Ogre Commando Team--

The few, the proud, the--

The quiet.

As I was saying, the best of you
will scale the walls of Dunwyn,

fight off the guards,
and kidnap King Gregor.

Without any slip-ups.

Once the king is in my hands,

the people will give me Dunwyn
on a silver platter.

I've gotta get Zummi to change me back
so I can warn King Gregor.

Naughty ogre.

You play hooky,
you clean crockagator pit.

Oh, my, oh, my.

Cavin should have been back by now.

I'll go see if he's coming.

Cavin must still be inside Drekmore.

Maybe he needs my help.

Cavin has gotta be down there
somewhere.

Bingo!

Whoa. That was close.

That was even closer.

Good sh*t.

Uh-oh.

Lookie! Gummi bear!

[IN NORMAL VOICE]
Cubbi? What's he doing here?

Don't let the little bouncer get away!

You little furball!

Uh-- Go flip your wiggy, Iggy! Uhn!

- Me make Gummi pancake.
- No!

Boy, am I glad to see you Cav--

- Good work, Ummuh.
- Huh?

You shall lead my ogre team

into Dunwyn.

CUBBI:
I can't believe it.

My best friend Cavin
is one of Igthorn's ogres.

This wasn't supposed to happen!

- Quiet. Me wanna sleep.
- Sleep?

Hey, ogre.

Wanna see some Gummi magic?

Hocus-pocus?

That's right. All I need is a volunteer.

Me. Me.

Tiddily, diddily
Into the night

Make this Gummi bear vanish
from sight

Now you see me
.

Now you don't

Ooh. Neat trick.

TOADIE:
Who's a cut above the rest?

OGRES:
Ogres! Ogres!

Who smells like a vulture's nest?

Ogres! Ogres!

I've got to keep them away
from Dunwyn.

IGTHORN:
Company, halt!

Now, let's see,
Drekmore is back that way...

[IN OGRE VOICE]
Me know shortcut.

Excellent. Follow him!

Keep up the good work, Ummuh.

There might be a promotion in this
for you.

You flimsy excuse for an ogre!
What kind of a shortcut is this?

Me say short, not easy.

He's got a point there.

The onIy point he has
is at the top of his head!

What else can go wrong?

[BUBBLING]

Cesspools?

You're losing favour quickly,
you blunderer!

GRUFFI: I can't believe Cavin's turned
into a real ogre.

It's true. And now he's leading Igthorn
to Dunwyn.

Oh, dear. I was afraid something like this
might happen.

He's probably forgotten who he is.

Well, we'd better go remind him

before he does something
he'll really regret.

Like betraying Dunwyn or us!

Secure the rope.

I'll secure it, all right.
To the bottom of the moat.

Toadie can't wait to get into castle
and--

[SCREAMS]

What?

[SCREAMS]

Good thinking, Toadwart!

Enthusiastic Toadie
always get wrapped up in his work.

[IN NORMAL VOICE]
Rats, can't I do anything wrong?

Well, what are you lumps waiting for?
Scale that wall!

Cubbi was right, Zummi,
your spell worked too well.

Cavin is an ogre.

Then I'll change him back now.
Now, let me see--

Too late, Zummi.
He's already over the wall.

Oh, dear. We onIy have until dawn
to reverse that spell.

But first,
we've got to stop Igthorn and Cavin.

Shh. Remember, men, the key is stealth.

What stealth?

Means ogres be quiet!

What was that?

[GUARDS GRUNTING]

That's using your heads.

Now, let's find Gregor's bedroom,
before we have any more slip-ups.

CAVIN [IN OGRE VOICE]:
It this way.

Oh, no. This time, we'll do it my way.

[IN NORMAL VOICE]
I've got to warn someone.

Yup, they've been here, all right.

We've gotta find out
what Igthorn is up to before it's too late.

Psst. Calla, hurry. Open the door.

Cavin? Is that you?

[SCREAMS]

- That sounds like Calla.
CALLA: Help!

Come on.

CALLA:
Guards! Guards!

- Help!
- Loudmouth princess spoil everything.

This will go on your record.

[KING SNORING]

IGTHORN:
Someone is sleeping in my bed.

Uh-- What?

- Who's there?
- Your worst nightmare, Gregor!

Ah. Igthorn!

Remove him!

No!

Ah! Unhand me this instant!

[LAUGHS]

At last, Dunwyn is mine!

[IN NORMAL VOICE]
No, it's not.

BOTH:
Huh?

Just what does that numbskull think
he is doing?

Spoiling dukie's coup?

One of my ogres a traitor?
Don't just stand there!

Get him!

KING:
Guards! We're under att*ck!

It's the king!

- Uh-oh.
- You there! Stop!

Give the rascal what for!

There he is!

Give me that king!

Wait! What are you doing?

Time to take a flying leap!

No! After him!

Hurry, Toadwart! He's getting away!

Him get double duty on gator pit
for this.

By Jove, they've got the king!

To arms! To arms!

ZUMMI: We're too late.
- I can't believe it. My best friend.

Face it, kid,
Cavin is more than just an ogre,

he's a kingnapper.

TUXFORD: Onward, men!
They can't have gone far!

CALLA:
Poor Father. What can we do?

Don't worry, kid.
We'll bring him back.

Gummi's honour.

KING:
Release me, villain,

or I swear you'll regret it!

- But, sire--
- I may be unarmed,

- but I'm not helpless!
- No!

Don't!

[GRUNTS THEN GROANS]

No!

- Your Majesty? Are you all right?
IGTHORN: Ummuh,

give Gregor back,
you double-crossing dunce!

He's mine!

[GRUNTING]

No way, dukie!

Incoming!

OGRE:
No! Oh, no!

Listen! The blaggards are over there!

Stop, you pebble brains,
and wait for your commander!

TOADIE:
Excuse us!

[OGRES SCREAMING]

What?

[RUMBLING]

Gads!

[ALL YELLING]

They've gotta be around here
somewhere.

[ALL SCREAMING]

Look out!

[OGRES GROANING]

TOADIE:
Can we go home, oh, flattened one?

IGTHORN: Not until I get Gregor
from that turncoat Ummuh.

I never should have trusted an ogre
who know his own name.

Wait a minute.

If Cavin didn't give Gregor to Igthorn,
then--

He must be protecting the king.

Cavin is not an ogre, he's a hero.

That's right.
But he'll be an ogre forever

if we don't reach him
before sunrise.

Where have those blasted ogres
taken the king now?

You men, check the north road.

[SIGHS]

If I don't find Zummi soon,

I'll wake up looking like this
every morning.

But I can't abandon King Gregor.

[MOANS]

Your Majesty!

No! Stay back!

Don't worry, sire. It's me, Cav--
I mean, I'm a friend.

I must be delirious.

I've got to get help.

I just hope Sir Tuxford is still close by.

TOADIE:
No, but we are!

Splendid! A king in the hand
is worth two in the bush.

Cuff him, Toadwart.

Hope these your size.

Come, Gregor, let us discuss the terms
of your surrender.

And as for you, Ummuh,

Gad and Zook here will show you
what we do to traitors.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

[CHUCKLES]

You in big trouble now.

Hurry, Zummi.

I know I had that spell yesterday.

- First, we give you bath.
- Then we hang you out to dry.

Then we get really mean.

CUBBI: Stop!
BOTH: Huh?

[CHANTING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

[BOTH GASP]

CAVIN:
Zummi, you did it!

Want the same thing
to happen to you?

BOTH: Uh-oh.
- Then b*at it!

[BOTH SCREAMING]

Sorry, Cavin.
I thought you really were an ogre.

Hey, how many ogres have Gummi bears
for best friends?

Right, Cavin.
Now, we've got a king to save!

I won't go on!

Cut the heroics, Greg,

and accept your defeat like a man.

GAD:
Dukie, save us!

What now, you ninnies?

GRUFFI:
Here is our chance.

Here, Cavin.
Don't forget your Gummiberry Juice.

Thanks, Zummi.

Gummi wizard turn Ummuh
into little-- Uhn!

[GRUNTING]

What in the world--?

Hey! Why you do that?

Trust me, heh, you belong together.

I won't be beaten by a mere boy.

TUXFORD:
What ho, my liege?

Please, Your Reasonableness,
knights not give warm reception.

For once, you're right, Toadwart.

Retreat!

CAVIN:
And don't come back, Igthorn!

This way, sire.

Are you all right, sire?

I am now, thanks to Cavin.

Way to go, Sir Cavin.

People of Dunwyn,

this is the brave page
who saved my life!

[CROWD CHEERING]

I look forward to the day
when I dub him a knight!

Well, lad, you've certainIy shown
you've got what it takes.

And more, Sir Tuxford.

[CHUCKLES]
Oh, I say.

Looks like Cavin
is a really big hero today.

More like an ogre-sized one.

Too bad there aren't more humans
like him.

Who knows,

maybe someday there will be.
