_________________________________

No, no, no. Oh, no. Oh, no.
_________________________________

I'm lost! Where's the line?
_________________________________

(MURMURING)
_________________________________

It just went away. What do I do?
_________________________________

-Help!

-We'll be stuck here forever!
_________________________________
SOIL: Do not panic. Do not panic!

_________________________________

We are trained professionals.

Now, stay calm.
_________________________________

We are going around the leaf.
_________________________________

Around the leaf?

I don't think we can do that.
_________________________________

Oh, nonsense. This is nothing

compared to the twig of '93.
_________________________________

That's it. That's it. Good!
_________________________________

You're doing great!

There you go. There you go!
_________________________________

Watch my eyes. Don't look away.
_________________________________

-And here's the line again.

-Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Soil.
_________________________________

Good job, everybody!
_________________________________

Oh, my. There's quite a gap, Mr. Soil.

Shouldn't we tell the queen?
_________________________________

I don't think we need

to involve the queen in this.
_________________________________

She's got enough on her plate already,

training her daughter.
_________________________________

Oh, yes. Princess Atta, the poor dear.
_________________________________

Oh, wind's died down.

They'll be here soon.
_________________________________

-Just be confident, dear. You'll be fine.

-Ah! There's a gap.
_________________________________

There's a gap in the line.

What are we gonna do?
_________________________________

It's okay, Your Highness.

Gaps happen.
_________________________________

We just lost a few inches, that's all.
_________________________________

Oh, right.
_________________________________

Your Highness, I can't count

when you hover like that.
_________________________________

Oh, of course. I'm sorry. Go ahead.
_________________________________

Guys, go shade someone else

for a while.
_________________________________

Okay, Atta. Now what do we do?
_________________________________

Oh! Don't tell me.

I know it. I know it. What is it?
_________________________________

-We relax.

-(CHUCKLES) Right.
_________________________________

Oh, it'll be fine.

It's the same, year after year.
_________________________________

They come, they eat, they leave.

That's our lot in life.
_________________________________

It's not a lot, but it's our life.
_________________________________

Isn't that right, Aphie?

Oh, you're such a cute little aphid.
_________________________________

(RUMBLING)
_________________________________

-Ditch Dot!

-Yeah, yeah!
_________________________________

Hey, come back here!
_________________________________

(BUZZING)
_________________________________

(GRUNTS)
_________________________________

-QUEEN: Dot!

-Yes, Mother.
_________________________________

What did I tell you about trying to fly?
_________________________________

Not until my wings grow in.
_________________________________

-QUEEN: Right.

-But, Mom...
_________________________________

Dot, you're a young queen ant,

and your wings are too little to be...
_________________________________

I was talking to Mother.

You're not the queen yet, Atta.
_________________________________

Now, Dot, be nice to your sister.
_________________________________

It's not my fault she's so stressed out.
_________________________________

(SIGHS) I know, I know.
_________________________________

I'm always acting like the sky is falling.
_________________________________

-MALE ANT: Look out!

-Atta!
_________________________________

ANT 1: Princess Atta!

ANT 2: Princess Atta!
_________________________________
ATTA: Oh!

ANT 1: Hey!
_________________________________

ANT 1: Stop that!

ANT 2: What do you think you're doing?
_________________________________

ANT 1: You could have killed somebody

over here.
_________________________________

-(GASPS) I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

-Oh, it's Flik.
_________________________________

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!
_________________________________

Please forgive me. I'm sorry!
_________________________________

(COUGHS)
_________________________________

-Princess Atta!

-Flik, what are you doing?
_________________________________

Oh... Oh, this! This is my new idea

for harvesting grain.
_________________________________

No more picking individual kernels.

You can just cut down the entire stalk!
_________________________________

-Flik, we don't have time for this.

-Exactly!
_________________________________

We never have time

to collect food for ourselves,
_________________________________

'cause we spend all summer harvesting

for the offering.
_________________________________

But my invention

will speed up production.
_________________________________

(GROANS) Another invention?
_________________________________

Yeah, and I've got

something for you, too.
_________________________________

-Flik!

-Since you're gonna be queen soon,
_________________________________

you could use this

to oversee production.
_________________________________

Dr. Flora, if I may.
_________________________________

-ATTA: This is all very nice, but...

-What?
_________________________________

Just an ordinary blade of grass

and a bead of dew, right?
_________________________________

-Flik, please.

-Wrong! It is, in fact, a telescope.
_________________________________

-It's very clever, Flik, but...

-Hello, princess!
_________________________________

My, aren't you looking
lovely this morning!
_________________________________

Not, of course, that you would need

a telescope to see that.
_________________________________

All right, listen!

The princess doesn't have time for this!
_________________________________

You want to help us fill this thing?

Then get rid of that machine,
_________________________________

get back in line

and pick grain like everybody else!
_________________________________

-Like everybody else!

-Please, Flik. Just go.
_________________________________

I'm sorry. I was...

I was really just trying...
_________________________________

Trying to help.
_________________________________

Harvester. Why, we've harvested

the same way ever since I was a pupa.
_________________________________
ATTA: Where were we?

_________________________________
THORNY: The food pile,

Your Highness.
_________________________________
ATTA: Oh, yes. Yes.

_________________________________
DOT: Hey, Flik! Flik! Wait up!

_________________________________

-Oh. Hello, princess.

-You can call me Dot.
_________________________________

Here, you forgot this.
_________________________________

Thanks. You can keep it.

I can make another one.
_________________________________

-I like your inventions.

-Really? Well, you're the first.
_________________________________

I'm beginning to think

nothing I do works.
_________________________________

-This works.

-Great. One success.
_________________________________

(SIGHS)
_________________________________

-I'm never gonna make a difference.

-Me, neither.
_________________________________

I'm a royal ant, and I can't even fly yet.

I'm too little.
_________________________________

-Being little's not such a bad thing.

-Yes, it is.
_________________________________

-No, it's not.

-Is, too!
_________________________________

-Is not. Is not.

-Is, too. Is, too.
_________________________________

-Is not. Is not. Is not...

-Is, too. Is, too.
_________________________________

A seed. I need... I need a seed.
_________________________________

(GROANS)
_________________________________

Here, here.
_________________________________

Pretend... Pretend that that's a seed.
_________________________________

-It's a rock.

-I know it's a rock. I know.
_________________________________

But let's just pretend for

a minute that it's a seed, all right?
_________________________________

We'll just use our imaginations.

Now, do you see our tree?
_________________________________

Everything that made that giant tree
_________________________________

is already contained

inside this tiny little seed.
_________________________________

All it needs is some time, a little bit

of sunshine and rain, and voila!
_________________________________

This rock will be a tree?
_________________________________

Seed to tree. You've got to work

with me, here, all right? Okay.
_________________________________

You might not feel

like you can do much now,
_________________________________

but that's just because,

well, you're not a tree yet.
_________________________________

You just have to give yourself

some time. You're still a seed.
_________________________________

-But it's a rock.

-I know it's a rock!
_________________________________

Don't you think I know a rock

when I see a rock?
_________________________________

-I've spent a lot of time around rocks!

-You're weird, but I like you.
_________________________________

(CONCH SOUNDING)
_________________________________

(GASPS) They're here.
_________________________________

ALL: They're here!
_________________________________
DOT: Mom! Where are you?

_________________________________

MALE ANT: They're coming!

FEMALE ANT: Run!
_________________________________

-Dot! Dot!

-Mom!
_________________________________

-Mom!

-Thank heavens!
_________________________________

Food to the offering stone.
_________________________________

(WHISTLES) Okay, everyone,

single file.
_________________________________

Food to the offering stone

and into the anthill. Now let's go!
_________________________________

ANT: Go, go, go, go!
_________________________________

Come on.

Keep moving, keep moving! Good.
_________________________________

Okay. That's everyone.
_________________________________
FLIK: Hey! Hey, wait for me!

_________________________________

Get the food to the offering stone,

then into the anthill.
_________________________________

(RATTLING)
_________________________________

(SCREAMS)
_________________________________

No! No, no, no, no, no!
_________________________________

Oh, no.
_________________________________

Princess Atta! Princess Atta!
_________________________________

(DRONING BUZZ APPROACHING)
_________________________________

Princess Atta!
_________________________________

(MUFFLED DRONING)
_________________________________

They come, they eat, they leave.

They come, they eat, they leave.
_________________________________

Excuse me, pardon me. Pardon me.

Coming through. Excuse me.
_________________________________

Sorry. Coming through. Princess Atta,

there's something I need to tell you.
_________________________________

Not now, Flik.
_________________________________

But, Your Highness,

it's about the offering!
_________________________________

GRASSHOPPER 1:

Hey, what's going on?
_________________________________

GRASSHOPPER 2:

Yeah, where's the food?
_________________________________

(ALL GASP)
_________________________________

-What did you do?

-It was an accident?
_________________________________

(CACKLING)
_________________________________

(GRASSHOPPERS WHOOPING)
_________________________________

Ooh.
_________________________________

Where's the food?
_________________________________

Hopper.
_________________________________
HOPPER: So where is it?

_________________________________

Where's my food?
_________________________________

(ECHOING)
_________________________________

-Isn't it up there?

-What?
_________________________________

-The food was in a leaf sitting on...

-Excuse me.
_________________________________

Are you sure it's not up there?
_________________________________

-Are you saying I'm stupid?

-ATTA: No.
_________________________________

Do I look stupid to you?
_________________________________

Let's think about the logic, shall we?

Let's just think about it for a second.
_________________________________

If it was up there,

would I be coming down here,
_________________________________

to your level, looking for it?
_________________________________

-I...

-Why am I even talking to you?
_________________________________

You're not the queen.

You don't smell like the queen.
_________________________________

She's learning

to take over from me, Hopper.
_________________________________

Oh, I see. Under new management.

So it's your fault.
_________________________________

No, it wasn't me. It was...
_________________________________
HOPPER: Uh-uh-uh.

_________________________________

First rule of leadership,

everything is your fault.
_________________________________

It's a bug-eat-bug world

out there, Princess,
_________________________________

one of those circle-of-life

kind of things.
_________________________________

Now, let me tell you

how things are supposed to work.
_________________________________

The sun grows the food.

The ants pick the food.
_________________________________

-The grasshoppers eat the food...

-And the birds eat the grasshoppers.
_________________________________

Hey, like the one that nearly ate you,

you remember? You remember?
_________________________________

-Oh, you should've seen it.

-Molt.
_________________________________

This blue jay, he has him halfway

down his throat, okay?
_________________________________

And Hopper's kicking

and screaming, okay?
_________________________________

And I'm scared, okay?

I'm not going anywhere near, okay?
_________________________________

Come on. It's a great story.
_________________________________

(MOLT EXCLAIMING IN PAIN)
_________________________________

I swear, if I hadn't promised Mother

on her deathbed
_________________________________

that I wouldn't kill you, I would kill you.
_________________________________

And believe me,

no one appreciates that more than I do.
_________________________________

I don't want to hear another word

out of you while we're on this island.
_________________________________

Do you understand me?
_________________________________

(WHIMPERS)
_________________________________

-I said, do you understand me?

-Well, how can I answer?
_________________________________

You said I couldn't say another word.

Remember Ma!
_________________________________

(PANTING)
_________________________________

Hey, I'm a compassionate insect.
_________________________________

There's still a few months

till the rains come,
_________________________________

so you can all just try again.
_________________________________

But, Hopper, since

it's almost the rainy season,
_________________________________

we need this time

to gather food for ourselves.
_________________________________

Listen, if you don't keep

your end of the bargain,
_________________________________

then I can't guarantee your safety.
_________________________________

And there are insects out there

that will take advantage of you.
_________________________________

Someone could get hurt.
_________________________________

(SNARLING)
_________________________________

(ROARS)
_________________________________

(GASPS)
_________________________________

What's the matter?

You scared of grasshoppers?
_________________________________

-Dot!

-You don't like Thumper?
_________________________________

Leave her alone!
_________________________________

You want her? Go ahead. Take her.
_________________________________

No? Then get back in line.
_________________________________

It seems to me

that you ants are forgetting your place.
_________________________________

So let's double the order of food.
_________________________________

(ANTS GASPING)
_________________________________

No! But... But...
_________________________________

We'll be back at the end of the season,
_________________________________

when the last leaf falls.
_________________________________

You ants have a nice summer.

Let's ride!

(GRUNTS)
_________________________________

(NERVOUS CHUCKLE)
_________________________________

Flik, what do you have

to say for yourself?
_________________________________

Sorry. I... I'm sorry for the way I am.
_________________________________

I didn't mean for things to go so wrong.
_________________________________

I especially didn't want

to make you look bad, princess.
_________________________________

-Well, Flik, you did.

-I was just trying to help.
_________________________________

Then help us. Don't help us.
_________________________________

Help? Help? Help?
_________________________________

Flik, you are sentenced

to one month digging in the tunnels.
_________________________________

Excuse me, Your Highness.
_________________________________

Need I remind you

of Flik's tunnel-within-a-tunnel project?
_________________________________

Helpers to help us.

That's it! That's... We could...
_________________________________

It took the whole Engineering

Department two days to dig him out.
_________________________________

-Send him to Health and Ant Services.

-Heavens, no!
_________________________________

We could leave the island.
_________________________________

The riverbed's dry right now.

We'd just walk right across.
_________________________________

We could go get helpers. We could!

We could go find helpers to help us.
_________________________________

-It's perfect!

-Perfect? What's so perfect?
_________________________________

Your Highness, don't you see?

We could send someone to get help!
_________________________________

(ALL GASP)
_________________________________

Leave the island?
_________________________________

Now, why didn't I think of that?

Oh! Because it's suicide!
_________________________________

-She's right. We never leave the island.

-Never leave!
_________________________________

There's snakes and birds

and bigger bugs out there!
_________________________________

Exactly! Bigger bugs!
_________________________________

We could find bigger bugs

to come here and fight
_________________________________

and forever rid us

of Hopper and his gang!
_________________________________

-Ludicrous!

-Who would do a crazy thing like that?
_________________________________

I'll volunteer.

I'd be very happy to volunteer.
_________________________________

You got a lot of spunk, kid, but

no one's gonna help a bunch of ants.
_________________________________

At least we could try. Oh, I could

travel to the city, search there!
_________________________________

If you went, you'd be

on that silly search for weeks.
_________________________________

Royal huddle.

Great idea, princess. It's perfect.
_________________________________

-Exactly.

-Wait a minute.
_________________________________

-What did we just decide here?

-To let Flik leave.
_________________________________

While we keep harvesting

to meet Hopper's demands.
_________________________________

-You see, with Flik gone, he can't...

-He can't mess anything up!
_________________________________

Flik, after much deliberation, we have

decided to grant you your request.
_________________________________

-Really?

-Really?
_________________________________

-Really.

-Thank you, princess.
_________________________________

Thank you so much for this chance.
_________________________________

-I won't let you down, I promise.

-That's fine. No, forget it.
_________________________________

But I should probably help repair

some of the damage before I go...
_________________________________

-No!

-ALL: No, no! Just go.
_________________________________

-Just go.

-Just leave!

Hey.
_________________________________

Don't worry!

The colony is in good hands!
_________________________________

Bye, now.
_________________________________

(ANTS CHEERING)
_________________________________

All right.
_________________________________

Hey, fellas. Beautiful morning, huh?
_________________________________

My dad says he gives you one hour
_________________________________

before you come back

to the island crying.
_________________________________

-Does he, now?

-My dad doesn't think that.
_________________________________

-He doesn't?

-No, he's betting you're gonna die.
_________________________________

Yeah, he says if the heat

doesn't get you, the birds will.
_________________________________
DOT: Well, I think he's gonna make it.

_________________________________

-Nobody asked you, Royal Shortness.

-Yeah, Dot. What do you know?
_________________________________

Hey, hey, hey.

Ease up, all right? Come on.
_________________________________

She's entitled to her opinion, too.

FLIK: Ohh...

_________________________________

So go, already.
_________________________________

-Hey!

-The city's that way.
_________________________________

I know.
_________________________________

You're supposed to look for bugs,

not dandelions.
_________________________________

You leave him alone.

He knows what he's doing.
_________________________________
FLIK: That's right.

_________________________________

Here I go. For the colony,

and for oppressed ants everywhere!
_________________________________
DOT: Wow!

_________________________________
FLIK: Hey!

_________________________________

Bye, Flik!
_________________________________

Wow.
_________________________________

(WIND GUSTING)
_________________________________

Whoa!
_________________________________
DOT: Good luck, Flik!

_________________________________

Bye!
_________________________________

Flik!
_________________________________
FLIK: (MUFFLED) I'm okay!

_________________________________

-Your dad's right. He's gonna die.

-You just watch.
_________________________________

He's gonna get the bestest,

roughest bugs you've ever seen!
_________________________________

(DIM ROARING)

Get back, you horrible beast!

All right, Dim. It's okay.

_________________________________

I have been in outhouses

that didn't stink that bad.
_________________________________

This is ridiculous.

What a disappointment.
_________________________________

-(GASPS) No!

-You! Come here!
_________________________________

I want my money back!
_________________________________

No refunds after the first two minutes.
_________________________________

Popcorn! Stale popcorn!
_________________________________

We're losing the audience!

You clowns get out there now!
_________________________________

I hate performing

on an empty stomach!
_________________________________

Do your act, Heimlich.
_________________________________

-Then you can eat.

-SLIM: P.T., what's the point?
_________________________________

Not now, Slim.
_________________________________

What's the point of going out there?

They'll only laugh at me.
_________________________________

-That's because you're a clown!

-No, it's because I'm a prop!
_________________________________

You always cast me as the broom,

the pole, the stick, a splinter.
_________________________________

You're a walking stick. It's funny!

-Now go!

-You parasite.

-She's a guy!

-Francis, leave them alone.

-They are poo-poo heads!

-Not again.

you must have been

buzzing around a dung heap all day.

Well, get him out of it!

the hairs out of your head one by one!

-Take your best shot!

-You name the place!
_________________________________

-Oh, yeah?

-Yeah, 'cause when you get there,
_________________________________

-you are dead!

-Francis, let me handle this.

-That's no way to speak to a lady.

-I heard that, you twig.

Ladies and gentlemen,

may I suggest that those of you

I represent a colony of ants,

you know, mean bugs,

the sort of bugs...

Fired by a flea. How humiliating!

Let's face it. We stink.

Say, why don't you tell our pal, Thud,

But then, Princess Atta...

Boy, is she one in a million.

We don't have any choice.

Hey, look who's playing lookout again.

-Flik has returned!

-He's back?

And he's accompanied

by savage insects!

What? How? He wasn't supposed

to actually find someone!
_________________________________

Oh, look at this. Look at this.

This is great. Look.
_________________________________

-Oh, my ticker!

-So, what are you supposed to be?

He's a stick, stupid.

You hit bugs with him.

No! Put me down! Oh!

Hey, guys, this is Princess Atta!

She's the one that sent me to find you!

-Did you see that really big bug?

-He looks absolutely ferocious!
_________________________________

-They're our ticket out of this mess!

-They came just in time!
_________________________________

So, Princess Atta, what...

What do you think?
_________________________________

No, no, no, wait!

This was not supposed to happen.
_________________________________

Mayday, mayday. We're losing the job.
_________________________________

We don't fight grasshoppers.
_________________________________

-We don't, but they will.

-Bingo!

We got to sweeten the deal.

would like to present you with this,

a mural we have drawn
_________________________________

of you bugs helping us

fight the grasshoppers away.
_________________________________

Oh, look at the beautiful

colors of the blood.
_________________________________

We drew one of you dying because our

teacher said it would be more dramatic.
_________________________________

_________________________________

I tell you a tale of heroes so bold,
_________________________________

who vanquished

our grasshopper enemies of old.

Look, the last leaf has fallen.

GRASSHOPPERS: We are

the grasshoppers! Where's our food?

Who will come to save us poor ants?

here to defend you!

I die! Die! Die!

_________________________________

-Here, here.

-(AMPLIFIED) The warriors...
_________________________________

(ANTS LAUGHING)
_________________________________

Thanks.
_________________________________

First of all, I'd like to thank the warriors

for helping us in our fight
_________________________________

against the grasshoppers.
_________________________________

Secondly, I would like to thank Flik
_________________________________

-for his forthright thinking...

-Thank you, Your Highness.
_________________________________

Sure, I'd like to take credit for all

of this, but, well, that wouldn't be right.
_________________________________

Because it was you, Princess Atta.

You believed in me
_________________________________

-and you sent me on my quest.

-SLIM: You tell that ant
_________________________________

-that we need to talk to him right now.

-Okay, okay. All right.
_________________________________

Now, I know that I've made

a lot of mistakes in the past.
_________________________________

-And I hope that this will make up...

-Flik!
_________________________________

Not right now, Rosie.

I'm making a speech.
_________________________________

Now, I truly believe that these bugs

are the answer to our...
_________________________________

No, there's no circus around here.
_________________________________

So I...

_________________________________
(GASPS)
_________________________________

Your Highness, the warriors have

called for a secret meeting
_________________________________

to plan for a circus...

Circumventing the oncoming hordes,
_________________________________

so they can trapeze...

Trap them with ease!
_________________________________

-Shouldn't I come, too?

-No!
_________________________________

Sorry, no, you see, it's classified

in the DMZ. Gotta go ASAP.
_________________________________

You know, strictly BYOB. Bye!
_________________________________

Sorry. Sorry I have to take

the warriors away so early,
_________________________________

but, you know, they have a lot to get

done, with the battle looming and all.
_________________________________

So, please, everyone, enjoy the party.
_________________________________

BYOB?
_________________________________

Thanks again. Bye. Bye-bye.
_________________________________

Okay, just... Just...

Just get in there. Go!
_________________________________

Go, go, go!
_________________________________

Circus bugs?

How can you be circus bugs?
_________________________________

-HEIMLICH: What?

-Hey, hey, hey.
_________________________________

You said nothing about killing

grasshoppers, pal. You lied to us!
_________________________________

Are you kidding?

Do you know what this is?
_________________________________

This, my friends, is false advertising.
_________________________________

How dare you! You, sir,

are the charlatan in this scenario,
_________________________________

touting your wares as a talent scout,
_________________________________

preying upon the hungry souls

of hapless artistes.
_________________________________

Good day to you, sir.
_________________________________

Wait! No, no! Wait, wait, wait, wait!

You can't go.
_________________________________

You have got to help me. Give me

some time. I'll come up with a plan.
_________________________________

-Just go tell them the truth!

-They can't...
_________________________________

They can't know the truth.

The truth, you see, is bad.
_________________________________

I will be branded with this mistake

for the rest of my life.
_________________________________

My children's children

will walk down the street,
_________________________________

and people will point and say, "Look.
_________________________________

"There goes the spawn

of Flik, the loser!"
_________________________________

Oh... Oh, you know, all right, fine.

Yeah, okay. Just go.
_________________________________

But if you could just do me a little favor

before you leave.
_________________________________

If you could just squish me,

that would be great, because
_________________________________

when they find out,

I'm as good as dead.
_________________________________

-ATTA: Flik!

-Huh?
_________________________________
ATTA: I really do think I should be

part of this meeting. Flik!
_________________________________

-Princess Atta! What a nice surprise.

-Just what exactly is going on?
_________________________________

I would like to speak

with the so-called "warriors."
_________________________________

You can't! They are in the middle

of a top-secret meeting right now,
_________________________________

and they really should not be

disturbed now. Right, guys?
_________________________________

(GASPS)
_________________________________

(STAMMERING) Could you excuse me,

please?

-Wait, wait, wait! Please, don't go!

-I'm not going anywhere.

What is going on? Flik?

Flik!
_________________________________

(GROANS) I knew it!

Please! Don't go!

-No! No, no, no!

-SLIM: Quick, he's losing it!

-You can't go! I'm desperate!

-Really? I couldn't tell.
_________________________________

Hmm.
_________________________________

Come on, wings.
_________________________________

Help!

Mother, Flik is up to something.
_________________________________
FLIK: No! No!

_________________________________
SLIM: Okay, Flik,

time to put you down now.
_________________________________

Get him off me. He's cutting off

the circulation to my foot.
_________________________________

-No, no, no, no!

-Let go!
_________________________________

Oh, please! Please! Don't go!

I mean it now.

Can I talk to you just for a second?

Oh, sure.

Again, thank you all very, very much.

ALL: Thank you.
_________________________________

You don't think I've offended

the warriors, do you?
_________________________________

-You? No.

-Oh, good. Because, you see,
_________________________________

when you first brought them here,
_________________________________

I thought you'd hired

a bunch of clowns.
_________________________________

You did?
_________________________________

(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)
_________________________________

Don't tell them I said that.
_________________________________

Boy, that's all I'd need,

another royal blunder like that.
_________________________________

-Princess, you're doing a great job.

-Thanks. You're sweet.
_________________________________

You're wrong, but sweet.
_________________________________

-I know what everyone really thinks.

-I don't follow you.
_________________________________

Everyone, the whole colony. Nobody

really believes I can do this job.
_________________________________

(SIGHS) It's like they're all watching me,
_________________________________

-just... Just...

-Waiting for you to screw up.
_________________________________

-Flik, I owe you an apology.

-For what?
_________________________________

Well, I haven't been that nice to you,

and I'm sorry.
_________________________________

If there's any way I can

make it up to you... Hey! I know!
_________________________________

How would you like to be the queen's

official aide to the warrior bugs?
_________________________________

-Me?

-Oh, sure.
_________________________________

You've got a great rapport going

with them,
_________________________________

especially after that rescue.

It was very brave.
_________________________________

-Really? No, no...

-Well, not every bug would face a bird.
_________________________________

-I mean, even Hopper's afraid of them.

-Yeah, well, I guess maybe I have...
_________________________________

-Say that again?

-I said, even Hopper's afraid of birds.
_________________________________

Thank you.
_________________________________

-Hopper's afraid of birds!

-And I don't blame him!
_________________________________

Oh, oh, oh, this is perfect.
_________________________________

We can get rid of Hopper, and no one

has to know that I messed up.
_________________________________

You just keep pretending

you're warriors.
_________________________________

Whoa, Flik, honey. We are not

about to fight grasshoppers, okay?
_________________________________

You'll be gone

before the grasshoppers ever arrive.
_________________________________

-It'll be easy. Here's what we do.

-Not another word.
_________________________________

I don't know what you're concocting

in that little ant brain of yours,
_________________________________

but we'll have no part of it.
_________________________________

Excuse me?

Could we get the warriors' autographs?
_________________________________

Autographs? Yeah!
_________________________________

-Oh, wow! Great!

-So you fellas catch the action today?
_________________________________

The bird went... and it just missed you!
_________________________________

Aren't you sweet?
_________________________________

And the way you pretended

to be stuck in that huge crack!
_________________________________

-That's just all part of the plan.

-Yeah, yeah.

And then you dive-bombed

into the bush!

-There you go, my boy.

_________________________________

(CHUCKLES) Delightful lads.

You were saying, Flik?
_________________________________

All right. We are going to build a bird,
_________________________________

a bird that we can operate from the

inside, which would then be hoisted...
_________________________________

Hoisted above the anthill

and hidden high in the tree.
_________________________________

Then, right when Hopper

and his gang are below,
_________________________________

we'll launch the bird

and scare off the grasshoppers.
_________________________________

Now it's going to take...
_________________________________

Everyone's involvement

to make this plan a reality.
_________________________________

I know it's not our tradition

to do things differently,
_________________________________

but if our ancestors

were able to build this anthill,
_________________________________

we can certainly rally together

to build this bird!

GRASSHOPPER:

We have more than enough food.
_________________________________

We go all the way back there

and it starts to rain,
_________________________________

we might as well be sucking bug spray.
_________________________________

Ooh! Don't even say that!

You know something?
_________________________________

You're making a lot of sense.

I mean, why take the risk?
_________________________________

-You should tell Hopper.

-Good idea.
_________________________________

But, you know, it's really not our place.
_________________________________

I mean, you're his brother.

That makes you, like...
_________________________________

The vice president of the gang.
_________________________________

Wow! It kind of does, doesn't it?
_________________________________

Okay, I'll tell him. Boy, I should talk

to you guys more often.
_________________________________

What if Hopper doesn't like it?
_________________________________

Then at least the genius

will get smacked, and not us.
_________________________________

Vice President Molt.
_________________________________

Yeah, that's good. Oh, that's good.
_________________________________

-A little lower. Lower, lower.

-Hey-a, Hop.
_________________________________

-Go away.

-That's fine. I won't tell you my idea.
_________________________________

-Good!

-Okay, okay. I'll tell you anyway.
_________________________________

You see, I've been thinking,

which is something that I do,
_________________________________

you know, being vice president and all.

This is a thought. And it was mine.
_________________________________

Why go back to Ant Island at all?

I mean, you don't even like grain.
_________________________________

-What?

-You're right.
_________________________________

I didn't think it was such

a good idea, myself.

Actually, it wasn't even my idea.

It was Axle and Loco's!

Going back to Ant Island.

I mean, we just got here,

and we have more than enough food
_________________________________

to get us through the winter, right?

Why go back?

(SINGING FOR HE'S

that stood up to me.
_________________________________

-Yeah, but we can forget about him!

-Yeah, it was just one ant.
_________________________________

One ant!
_________________________________

Yeah, you're right! It's just one ant!
_________________________________

-Yeah, boss. They're puny!

-Hmm. Puny.
_________________________________

Say, let's pretend this grain

is a puny little ant.
_________________________________

-Did that hurt?

-(CHUCKLES) Nope.
_________________________________

-Well, how 'bout this one?

-Are you kidding?
_________________________________

Well, how 'bout this?
_________________________________

You let one ant stand up to us,
_________________________________

then they all might stand up.
_________________________________

Those puny little ants

outnumber us 100 to one.
_________________________________

And if they ever figure that out,

there goes our way of life!
_________________________________

It's not about food.

It's about keeping those ants in line.
_________________________________

That's why we're going back!

Is that grain dip fresh or what? Okay.

I've told everyone you'll be stationed

deep in the command bunker.

I sneak you out the back way,

need me here. He's not fully trained.

I... I kind of promised the Blueberries

I'd teach them canasta.

Will you just look at this colony?

And I have you bugs to thank for it.

I'm in need of your...

Oh, let's just cut to the chase.
_________________________________

Look, I've been going

from anthill to anthill.
_________________________________

I'm looking for a bunch of

circus performers.
_________________________________

Have you seen them?
_________________________________

(GASPS)
_________________________________

Wait a second.

Ain't that Staff Sergeant Slim?
_________________________________

Nope! No, no, no. I'm sorry, no.
_________________________________

I've never seen

anyone like that around here.
_________________________________
SLIM: Be quiet!

_________________________________
FLIK: No one has ever seen

anyone like that around here.
_________________________________

So you'll probably want to get going.
_________________________________

I guess you've got a lot of other

anthills to check into, so bye!
_________________________________

Ah, guys, I've been looking all over

for you! Flaming Death is a huge hit!
_________________________________

-P.T.!

-P.T. FLEA: I'm serious!
_________________________________

Word of mouth got around.
_________________________________

The next day, there was a line of flies

outside the tent, went on forever!
_________________________________

-It must have been a foot long!

-P.T., no!
_________________________________

So I figured it out. You guys burn me

twice a night, I take a day off to heal.
_________________________________

And then we do it all over again!
_________________________________

We'll be the top circus act

in the business!
_________________________________

-You mean, you're not warriors?

-Are you kidding?
_________________________________

These guys are the lousiest

circus bugs you've ever seen.
_________________________________

And they're gonna make me rich!
_________________________________

You mean to tell me

that our entire defensive strategy
_________________________________

was concocted by clowns?
_________________________________

We really thought

Flik's idea was gonna work.
_________________________________

Oops.
_________________________________

Tell me this isn't true.
_________________________________

-No, you don't...

-This couldn't have happened
_________________________________

at a more inopportune time!

The last leaf is about to fall!
_________________________________

FEMALE ANT: We haven't collected

any food for the grasshoppers!
_________________________________

If Hopper finds out

what we almost did...
_________________________________

Hopper is not going to find out.
_________________________________

We're going to hide all this

and pretend it never happened.
_________________________________

You bugs were never here.

So I suggest you all leave.
_________________________________

But the bird! The bird will work.
_________________________________

I never thought I'd see the day

when an ant would put himself
_________________________________

-before the rest of his colony.

-What?
_________________________________

-The point is, Flik, you lied to us.

-No, no, no! I... I just...
_________________________________

You lied, Flik. You lied to her.
_________________________________

You lied to the colony! You lied to me!
_________________________________

And like an idiot, I believed you.
_________________________________

But I... I was just afraid that
_________________________________

if you knew I'd gotten circus bugs...
_________________________________

(SIGHS)

-I just wanted to make a difference.

before it rains.

Didn't you hear Hopper?

After the ants pick all the food,
_________________________________

he's gonna squish the queen

to remind them who's boss.

Then she's dead. They cry, boo-hoo.

Flik! Flik! Help us!
_________________________________

(GASPS) Dot!
_________________________________

Okay! Everyone out! Hurry!
_________________________________

Where's Dot? Has anyone seen Dot?
_________________________________

Whose idea was this?
_________________________________

Was it yours, princess?
_________________________________

Just get behind me, girls. It'll be okay.
_________________________________
FLIK: Leave her alone, Hopper.

_________________________________

The bird was my idea.

I'm the one you want.

(GRUNTING)
_________________________________

(THUDDING)
_________________________________

Where do you get the gall

to do this to me?
_________________________________

You were...

You were gonna squish the queen.
_________________________________

It's true.
_________________________________

I hate it when someone

gives away the ending.
_________________________________

You piece of dirt! No, I'm wrong.
_________________________________

You're lower than dirt. You're an ant!
_________________________________

Let this be a lesson to all you ants.
_________________________________

Ideas are very dangerous things.
_________________________________

You are mindless, soil-shoving losers,
_________________________________

put on this earth to serve us!
_________________________________
FLIK: (WEAKLY) You're wrong, Hopper.

_________________________________

Ants are not meant

to serve grasshoppers!
_________________________________

I've seen these ants do great things.
_________________________________

And year after year,

they somehow manage
_________________________________

to pick food for themselves and you.
_________________________________

So who is the weaker species?
_________________________________

Ants don't serve grasshoppers.
_________________________________

It's you who need us.
_________________________________

(ANTS MURMURING)
_________________________________

We're a lot stronger

than you say we are.
_________________________________

And you know it, don't you?
_________________________________

Well, princess!
_________________________________

Hopper? I hate to interrupt, but...
_________________________________

You ants stay back!
_________________________________

-Oh, this was such a bad idea!

-You see, Hopper,
_________________________________

nature has a certain order.
_________________________________

The ants pick the food,

the ants keep the food
_________________________________

and the grasshoppers leave!
_________________________________

-I'm so proud of you, Flik!

-Charge-a!
_________________________________
HOPPER: Where are you going?

They're just ants!
_________________________________

No! Bad grasshopper!

Bad grasshopper! Go home!
_________________________________

(YELPS)
_________________________________

-Yeah!

-HOPPER: Come back here,
_________________________________

you cowards! Don't leave!
_________________________________

-To the cannon!

-ALL: To the cannon!
_________________________________

No!
_________________________________

Happy landings, Hopper!
_________________________________

(THUNDERCLAP)
_________________________________

Huh?
_________________________________

Rain!
_________________________________

-Flik!

-Quick! After them!
_________________________________

Slim!
_________________________________
SLIM: Francis! Francis!

Francis, I'm stuck!
_________________________________

-Where are you?

-I'm over here!
_________________________________

-Where?

-Here!
_________________________________

I'm the only stick with eyeballs!
_________________________________

-Help! Help! Help!

-Get him!
_________________________________

No!
_________________________________

(CHUCKLING)
_________________________________

(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
_________________________________

-Go that way!

-But the anthill's...
_________________________________

I've got an idea!
_________________________________

-Flik!

-Come on!
_________________________________

There!
_________________________________

Come on! We've got to hide!
_________________________________

No matter what happens, stay down!
_________________________________

Flik, no! What are you doing?
_________________________________

-Hopper!

-You think it's over?
_________________________________

No, no, no. No, I can explain.
_________________________________

All your little stunt did

was buy them time!
_________________________________

-No, please! Please, Hopper!

-I'll get more grasshoppers
_________________________________

and be back next season,
_________________________________

but you won't!
_________________________________

(CHIRPING)
_________________________________

Well, what's this?

Another one of your little bird tricks?
_________________________________

-Yep.

-Are there a bunch of little girls
_________________________________

in this one, too? Hello, girls!
_________________________________

No! No! No, no, no, no!
_________________________________

No! No!
_________________________________

Oh, no!
_________________________________

Oh, no! No, no, no!

(CONCH SOUNDING)
_________________________________

Come on, boys!
_________________________________

Hey, Princess Dot! Wait up!
_________________________________

I finally get a second to relax,

and I got to get out of my chair.
_________________________________

Come on! You can rub lotion

on me later, shade boy.
_________________________________

Yeah, hubba-hubba.
_________________________________
HEIMLICH: Oh, thank you!
MANNY: Thank you.

_________________________________

-You're too kind.

-The least we could do.
_________________________________

-All in a day's work.

-Any time.
_________________________________

Dim!
_________________________________

I'm so sorry, kids.

I wish you could come along, too.
_________________________________

I'm not gonna cry. I'm not gonna cry.
_________________________________

(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
_________________________________

Hey, let's go. We got a schedule

to keep. Come on. Let's go.
_________________________________

-Hey!

-Hey!
_________________________________

Hey, Tiny!

Let's get this show packed up!
_________________________________

We got paying customers hatching!
_________________________________
MOLT: Yes, Mr. Flea. Yes, sir.

Of course, sir. Right away, sir.
_________________________________

I just wanted to thank you

for giving me a chance,
_________________________________

because it's an honor to work

with creative giants such as yourself.
_________________________________

Shutting up.
_________________________________

You sure you can't come

on tour with us?
_________________________________

Sorry. My place is here.
_________________________________

-Good answer.

-Oh, well. Your loss.
_________________________________

One minute, insects!
_________________________________

I want to thank all of you

for giving us back
_________________________________

our hope, our dignity and our lives.
_________________________________

And to you, Princess Atta.

You have given us so much.
_________________________________

Please accept this gift from us bugs
_________________________________

to you ants.
_________________________________

-For you!

-(CHUCKLES) Oh! It's a rock.
_________________________________

-What's with the rock?

-Must be a circus thing.
_________________________________

(DOT GIGGLES)
_________________________________

Well, Flik, you really goofed up.
_________________________________

-Thanks.

-Yeah, you, too.
_________________________________

(ALL CHEERING)
_________________________________

(SNIFFLES)
_________________________________

All right. Now it's getting mushy.

We're out of here!
_________________________________

-Whoa!

-ROSIE: See you next season!
_________________________________

-SLIM: See you, Flik!

-Bye! We miss you already!
_________________________________

-You fired!

-You fired!
_________________________________

(GASPS) We forgot Heimlich!
_________________________________

I'm finished!

Finally, I'm a beautiful butterfly!
_________________________________

Mein wings! Oh, they're beautiful!
_________________________________

Heimlich! The wagon's taking off!

You better start flying!
_________________________________

But I am flying! And from way up here,

you all look like little ants!
_________________________________

Auf Wiedersehen!
_________________________________

Bye!
_________________________________

Present stalks!
_________________________________

Harvester, salute!
