[Clattering]

This is the coolest,
greatest, most awesomest

Show-and-tell project
we'’ve ever made, nella.

You said it,
garrett.

I mean, come on.

It'’s a mechanical
dragon.

She looks
amazing.

Boy,
does she.

Totally.

She could use
a little bling,

But, of course,
that'’s just me.

Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!

What should we
name her, nella?

I know. I dub thee
fireheart

The orange-striped
dragon.

All hail fireheart--

The coolest dragon
in the land.

Hail, fireheart.

Ooh, it sounds
so official.

Now let'’s see if the flying
mechanism I built works.

[Creaking]

[Rumbling]

You can do it,
fireheart.

Flap
those wings.

[Boing]

[Clatter]

Huh. I guess
fireheart still needs

A few adjustments
before she can fly.

We can finish fixing
fireheart at school.

With your know-how,
she'’ll be flying

Like a real dragon
in no time.

Thanks, nella.

I can'’t wait
for show-and-tell

So everyone
can see her.

Me, too,
so we'’d better

Get fireheart
to school.

Little help here, guys?

We'’re on it.

We'’d be
delighted.

Ok. How about
I start out by saying

To the class...

[Clears throat]

"This is an
orange-striped dragon.

"Nella and I
built her.

"We named her
fireheart.

"When I pull these levers,
the wings flap up and down,

And a furry creature
pops out of her back."

Huh? Oh!

What is that?
Wow.

Oh, my gosh,
he'’s so cute.

What'’s he
called, garrett?

Um, according to my
knightly trading cards,

He'’s a critterpillar,
and he lives

Deep in
the wild woods.

[Chatters]

Aw, look at him.

He doesn'’t seem
so wild to me.

Hee hee hee!

And he sure seems
to like fireheart.

[Chattering]

Oh, my gosh,
we should take him

To show-and-tell
with us.

Huh?

Everybody at school
would love him.

Garrett: but we
already have something

For show-and-tell,
nella--

Our awesome dragon
fireheart, and besides,

My card says
he'’s a wild critter.

I'’m not so sure
bringing him to school

Is such
a good idea.

[Chatters]

Oh, but what
if he'’s lost?

We'’re a long way
from the woods.

I know!

We'’ll find his home as
soon as school is over.

Does that sound good,
mr. Critterpillar?

But, nella--

[Chattering]
waah!

Well, hey, he'’s
got friends,

Lots of them.

[Chattering]

Well, the more,
the merrier.

Come on, guys.
Let'’s hurry up.

We don'’t want
to be late.

Ohh, I don'’t like
where this is going.

See you
after school.

Have fun with
your critterpillars.

Yeah,
and don'’t worry.

Nothing could
possibly go wrong.

Why did you
say that?

You think something
might go wrong?

Of course not.

When has bringing
wild creatures

To school ever
been a problem?

Hey, everybody,
good morning. Morning.

Good morning.
Ok. Come on in.

Nella:
hi, everyone.

Garrett:
hey, guys.

Nella,
garrett, look.

We brought a big
squash that we grew

For show-and-tell.

What did
you guys bring?

Nella and I built
a mechanical dragon.

Cool!

Her name is fireheart,
and she'’s--

[Chattering]

Oh, so cute
and fuzzy!

You brought little...
Whatever those are.

[Critterpillar chatters]

Ohh, I love them.

Aren'’t they adorbs?
They'’re called critterpillars.

We found them
on the way to school.

Garrett: and we
built a dragon, too,

Remember?

She'’s an orange-striped
dragon, and we...

Aww!
Aww!

I want one.
Me first.

So cute, cute.
Ohh...

[Whistle blows]

What'’s going on
over here?

Oh, will you
look at that?

What are these
cute little things?

They'’re called
critterpillars, sir coach.

Oh, so adorable.
Ha ha ha!

Oh! There'’s one in my armor.
Hoo hoo hoo!

Looks like everybody'’s
interested

In those
critterpillars...

Aww!
Aww!

And not you.
But if I can

Get your wings
working,

Then they'’ll
pay attention.

Aww!
Aww!

Aww!
Ha ha ha!

At least,
I hope they will.

Sir coach: ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!

Ha ha! Hee hee!

Oh, they'’re
so cute.

[Chattering]

Willow: look. They'’re crawling
their way up the walls.

Aww!
Aww!

And look. They'’re
hanging from the ceiling.

It looks like they'’re
starting to make

Little cocoons
for themselves.

Aww!
Aww!

Ohh!
[Gasps]

Nella:
so beautiful.

Willow: look.
One'’s hatching.

[Chatters]

Ooh!
Wow!

Look, garrett.

This one turned
into a critter.

Aww!
Huh? Garrett?

[Chatters]

Aww!
Aww!

Ha ha!
Aah!

Hey, our
show-and-tell squash.

Hey, now. That
doesn'’t belong to you.

[Whistle blows]

Hey, give me my whistle.
Come back here.

Whoa! Oh, no.
Oh, no.

Aah!

Clod, look!
Aah!

Whoa!

Waah!
Huh?

Sir coach:
let'’s go! Aah!

Aah!

Aah!
Aah!

Whoa!

Garrett,
there you are.

Nella, these critters
are ruining show-and-tell.

I know.
You were right.

Wild animals do
belong in the wild.

Whoa! I'’ve got
to do something.

My heart is bright!

Time to be a princess knight!

♪ My heart grows strong ♪

♪ It'’s time to shine my light ♪

♪ Sword, shield, boots ♪

♪ My courage shining bright ♪

♪ Now I am
the princess knight ♪

The girl sure knows
how to dazzle.

Come on, garrett.

We have to get

Those critter-dragons
out of here.

But how?

[Chattering]

Wow. They sure
like our dragon.

Wait a minute.

They think fireheart
is their mama.

Ah, mama.
Ah.

Yeah. I think
you'’re right.

If we fly fireheart
into the wild,

Then maybe the
critter-dragons

Will follow her.

It'’s worth a try.
Come on.

[Chattering]
it'’s working

They'’re following
fireheart, nella.

Don'’t worry,
little guys.

Our dragon will
guide you home.

Garrett, it'’s time
for fireheart to fly.

But fireheart
needs enough speed

To launch her into
the air for liftoff.

Not a problem.
Trink, clod...

Clod: yes?

Can you hold on
to these ribbons...

Clod:
sure, nella.

And then pull as fast
as you can down the path?

Yes, we can,
nella.

Ready, garrett?

I hope this works.

[Creaking]

[Rumbling]

Oh, yeah.
Wow.

All right,
critter-dragons.

Follow us.
Yee-haw!

Whoa!
Wow!

The critter-dragons
are right behind us.

But we need to go
even faster

If we'’re gonna
get off the ground.

There'’s not much more
room for us to run.

Faster, guys.

Nella: it'’s now
or never, garrett.

Here...we...

Go!

Ohh!
Whoa!

Ooh!
Whoo-hoo!

Sir coach:
wow! Yeah!

Whoo-hoo!
It works!

It works!
We did it, nella!

You did it, garrett.
You made our project fly.

[Chattering]

Whoa!
Whoo-hoo!

Whoo!

Where did your card say
the critter-dragons live?

It says they live deep
in the wild woods.

Then to the
wild woods we go.

Whoo-hoo! Whoa.

Nella, look.

It'’s a huge
critter-dragon.

It must be
their mama.

Then we need to get
them down there,

And I know just
how to do it.

Come on, guys.

Oop! Go see your mama.

Nella: aww,
they recognize her.

Garrett: and she
recognizes them.

[Chattering]

Whoo-hoo! The critter-dragons
made it home.

Garrett: aww,
they'’re so happy.

We better get back
to school, garrett.

Everyone'’s waiting.

No problem, nella.

Bye, critter-dragons.
Fly, fireheart. Fly.

Whee!
Whee!

Oh, here they come.

Clod: you'’re back.

Trinket: nella,
you'’re back.

Whoo-hoo!
Yeah!

I'’m so proud
of you both,

You get a show-and-tell
gold star.

Cool!
Way to go, garrett.

Garrett: wow.
Thanks, everyone.

Yeah. Thanks,
and, garrett,

Sorry I almost ruined
our show-and-tell today.

Are you kidding?

This has been the best
show-and-tell ever.

Up high. Ha ha ha!

Aah! Huh?

Oh, he'’s so cute,
but something

Tells me he'’d be
happier in the wild.

Phew.

[Laughter]

[Wind whistling]

Could today be the day? Yes!

This is the perfect weather
to fly our new kite.

You mean this
new kite, nella,

The one we spent
all week making?

Whoa!
Ha ha!

That'’s
the one, dad.

Whoa! Whoa!

Oh, well, I know just
the place to fly it--

Lilymire meadows.

Ooh, great idea.

That'’s the best kite-flying
spot in the kingdom.

Queen mom: come on.

I think it'’s time

For an official
family road trip!

To the royal carriage.

Ready to ride
in style, everyone?

Ha ha!
Whoo-hoo!

Let'’s go.
Let'’s go.

Are we
there yet?

Almost, g*ng.

This bridge takes us
right to lilymire meadows.

Ooh!
I can'’t wait.

Hey, why did
we stop, trink?

Not sure, nella,

But there sure is
a lot of traffic.

Yeah. It looks
like we'’re not

The only ones
flying kites today.

Trevor: no, grud.
Huh?

Wait until
I tell you, "go."

That'’s the way we'’re
supposed to do it.

We better go see
what'’s wrong.

I'’ll say, "go"--
this is great--

Hi, grud.

And then you'’ll
lower your side,

And then
I'’ll lower my side.

Trevor: no. My way'’s
the best way, grud. Now come on.

[Ringing]
huh?

Oh, hey,
princess nella.

Hi, grud.
Hi, trevor.

Hi,
princess nella.

Can you guys
lower the bridge?

Of course. It is
our job, you know.

All right,
little brother.

Get into position,

And this time,
do what I say.

Now, , , --

Go.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!

I didn'’t say, "go."
That'’s too fast.

Slower, grud.

But what if I lower
my side the way I want,

And then you lower your
side the way you want,

And then we'’d
both be lowering--

Nope. My way
is how we do it.

Arrgh! Stop being
so bossy, trevor.

I may be
the little brother,

But I want to lower
my side my way.

Nella: um, guys, could
you lower the bridge

So everyone can go fly
their kites? Please?

Oh.
Sure.

Trinket:
phew. Finally.

Lilymire meadows,
here we come.

Grud, you'’re not
doing what I say.

Whoa!
Whoa!

The other side of
the bridge is up.

We can'’t
get across.

Uh-oh, and neither
can anyone else.

Trevor, why did you raise
your side of the bridge?

Because you'’re
not lowering it

The way
I told you, grud.

Now do what I say.
Mmph!

Um, uh-oh.

Maybe I'’d better
see if I can help.

Um, hi, grud.
Is everything ok?

No. Everything'’s
not ok, nella.

Trevor'’s being
so bossy.

I'’m tired of him telling
me what to do all the time,

And now I can'’t
lock my side

Of the bridge down
until he lowers his.

Oh.

I heard that, grud,
but it'’s true.

I'’m the boss.
Arrgh!

Well, you'’re not
the boss of me anymore.

I'’m out of here.
But, grud--

Oh!
Oh!

Grud, wait.

Whoa! Oh, no!
Eek!

Ohh! Oh, my gosh.
Whoa!

My family,
they'’re in trouble!

I'’ve got to do something.

My heart is bright!

Time to be a princess knight!

♪ My heart grows strong ♪

♪ It'’s time to shine my light ♪

♪ Sword, shield, boots ♪

♪ My courage shining bright ♪

♪ Now I am
the princess knight ♪

Wow. She really puts the "shine"
in "shining armor."

Hold on, everyone.
I'’m coming.

[Grunting]

Oof. Maybe not.
That'’s pretty steep.

Trinket:
hurry, nella!

I don'’t think I can
balance this thing much longer.

Nella:
don'’t worry, trink.

I'’ll just use the crank
to get you all down.

Trevor: whoa. Whoa.
Hold on, nella.

You have to lower
your side of the bridge

At the same time
as me.

Ok, trevor,
but we have to hurry.

Ok. Now go.
Nngh...

[Creaking]

Trinket: what happened?
Are we down?

Nuh-uh.
Nope.

Not yet.

[Grunting]

Hey, you stopped
turning your crank.

I didn'’t
say, "stop."

I had to, trevor.
It was too heavy.

I--i couldn'’t
turn it.

Can you lower both sides,
one after the other?

No can do, nella.

You have to turn the
cranks at the same time

So both sides
meet at the bottom.

If not, the bridge
won'’t stay locked down.

So, you mean,
it takes two giants

To work the bridge?

Yeah, guess so.

Then there'’s only
one thing to do.

We have to get grud back
to save my family.

Queen mom: uh, that might be
kind of hard, honey.

He'’s driving away
really fast.

Ha! I'’m way faster
than him, your highness.

Here.

Hop in, nella.

I'’ll show you how fast
I can catch up to grud.

[Click]

Hold on tight.

I'’m going to get you
guys down in no time.

Ok, nella.
Holding on tight.

Nella:
ready, trevor?

Ugh. Nella, I'’m
the boss, remember,

So I say
when we'’re ready,

And now I say
we'’re ready!

Whoo-hoo!
Whoa-ho!

Queen mom: go get
them, nella.

Trevor:
look at us go.

You go, girl. Whoa!

Trevor: I'’m
an amazing driver.

We'’ll catch up
to grud in no time.

But I don'’t see
grud anywhere.

Here take this.
Whoa!

I'’ll look.
Now let'’s see.

Oh, where'’s that
little brother of mine?

Aha. There he is.

Come on. We have
to catch up to him.

We need to lower
that bridge.

Whoa!

Look.
There'’s a shortcut.

But, trevor, it'’s
pretty muddy that way.

It might
be slippery.

Ohh, nella,
I'’m the boss,

And I say let'’s
take the shortcut.

But, trevor--whoa!

We'’re slipping.
Whoa!

Whoa!
Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Careful, trevor.

Whoa.
Ah!

We'’re going
the wrong way.

I know how to get us
out of this mud.

[Grunts]

Whoa!

Whoa!

Look at nella go,
soaring like a kite.

Ha ha!
That'’s our girl.

Whoo hoo!
Whew!

We'’re safe.
You did it.

Hee hee hee!
Thank you, nella.

Guess I should'’ve listened
to you in the first place.

Sometimes
it helps to listen

To other
people'’s ideas.

But I like doing
things my way.

Guess I was being
kind of bossy.

It'’s not too late
to fix this.

We can still find grud
and save my family.

Yeah, and I can
tell grud I'’m sorry...

Speaking of which,
there he is.

Wait, grud.
Stop, please.

Wait.

Trevor, I don'’t want
to talk to you.

But--
no buts about it.

But he wants
to say he'’s sorry.

Yeah.
I'’m sorry.

I shouldn'’t have
been so bossy.

You mean it?
Of course.

We'’re bros, and bros
should stick together.

♪ I was bossy,
I was pushy ♪

♪ Even though
it may sound mushy ♪

♪ You need to know
I'’m your bro ♪

♪ I'’m your bro ♪

Aww, I'’m so glad
you guys made up,

But now we have
to get back to the bridge.

Yeah. We need
you, grud.

Nella'’s family'’s
in trouble.

Ohh, they are?

They'’re stuck on top
of your half of the bridge.

Oh, no!
I'’m so sorry.

I didn'’t realize.
Come on.

Let'’s go.
Let'’s go.

Trinket: and now it'’s teetering.
Now it'’s tottering.

[Horn honking]

What'’s that?
It'’s nella.

Nella!

We'’re coming for you, trink.
Just hold on.

Ok, on
your count, grud.

Actually, can we
do it together?

That'’s a great idea.

, , , Go!
, , , Go!

Trevor: how'’s
it looking, nella?

Nella: not too fast, guys,
a little slower.

Great. You'’re both working
together perfectly.

Whoo-hoo!

Trinket:
way to go, nella.

Oh...whoa!

Um...kites.

[Gasps] I know what to do.

Hang on, guys.

Whoa! Aah!

Nella! It'’s nella!
Ohh!

Whoa!

Honey, look.
Huh.

That'’s our girl.

[Cheering]

Whoa!
It worked!

Mom: oh,
good job, honey.

Whoo-hoo!
Finally.

I'’ve missed you,
ground.

Saved by these kites.

And a princess
knight.

Thanks, mom.
Thanks, dad.

Does this mean

We can finally go
to lilymire meadows?

Of course.

And thank you,
princess nella.

Yeah. From now on,
this bridge

Will be running
smoothly.

Nella: and thanks
to you guys, too.

If you didn'’t
work together,

Nobody would be able
to reach lilymire meadows.

Hey, you should come
kite-flying with us.

Really?
Really?

Yeah. Come on.

Trinket:
oh, feel that wind.

King dad: ooh,
our kite'’s amazing.

Queen mom: look at
the pretty kite, norma.

[Norma babbles]

Oh, this is great,
little bro.

Yeah, big bro.
This is amazing.
