[00:01:39]>> I need a new manager.

[00:01:43]>> A new manager?

[00:01:45]But but what about the carnival? My cousin Ernie's got the whole thing set up. This is the booking we've been waiting for. Fame and fortune are calling. Fat Wley, come on, buddy. I can't do this on my own.

[00:02:02]>> Then find someone else.

[00:02:04]>> Someone else? But you're the only friend I've got.

[00:02:07]>> I've got news for you, Ratso. You don't have any friends.

[00:02:13]>> You don't mean that. You're just high on your own success.

[00:02:20]>> What are you doing?

[00:02:22]>> Someday you'll thank me, buddy.

[00:02:32]>> Hello, Ratzo.

[00:02:34]Phyllis, what a surprise.

[00:02:37]>> Did you honestly think I wouldn't find you?

[00:02:40]>> Honestly, yes.

[00:02:45]>> Come on, Phyllis. Nobody wants this. I got big plans. Let me have my life.

[00:02:51]>> Show's over, Ratzo.

[00:02:53]>> Well, I guess there's no point in running.

[00:02:57]>> None. What the heck?

[00:03:18]Look at this.

[00:03:34]Go get him, boy.

[00:03:40]Get me out of here.

[00:03:42]>> Little busy.

[00:03:50]MEOW.

[00:04:01]HELLO.

[00:04:24]So long, fellas.

[00:04:36]Your life belongs to me, Ratzo.

[00:04:41]And I'm going to find you. Whatever it takes.

[00:05:07]I wish you could see this, Wesley. We're on our way.

[00:05:11]>> You'll be sorry, Ranso. I'll never work for you again. And without me, you're nothing. That's right, Wesley. We're on our way.

[00:05:35]Oh, heat, heat.

[00:06:05]It's the carnival.

[00:06:12]Yes, I'm the king of the world.

[00:06:23]No way. STOP THE TRAIN.

[00:06:39]MY NECK.

[00:06:42]>> Wait a minute. What did you do with this city?

[00:06:47]>> Forget the city. I saw it, Wes. I saw the carnival.

[00:06:51]>> It was beautiful. Don't you get it? I'm not going.

[00:06:59]But >> But you got to go.

[00:07:02]Do you mind? I'll give you anything you want.

[00:07:06]>> You give me anything.

[00:07:09]>> Anything?

[00:07:11]What is your problem?

[00:07:12]>> All I want's a bit of respect.

[00:07:15]>> You got it.

[00:07:16]>> WHAT?

[00:07:17]>> BEAT IT, KID.

[00:07:20]>> And uh some kind of wheels.

[00:07:22]>> Oh boy.

[00:07:22]>> Yeah. I'm digging SOLID GOLD.

[00:07:30]RATZO. HELLO. OH, COME ON. It stinks in here.

[00:07:48]Wesley.

[00:07:51]Okay, that's it. You've messed with the wrong rat.

[00:07:58]>> What are you laughing in there? Okay, let's do this thing.

[00:08:19]There's such a joy at this age.

[00:08:22]>> Shut up. Now, who are you and what do you think you're doing with that egg?

[00:08:26]>> I'm Ratzo and uh and I've forgotten the second half of your question.

[00:08:34]>> Anyh who, it's been a real pleasure.

[00:08:36]Stay beautiful, Taxi.

[00:08:40]Ow.

[00:08:43]I am seem to be having some trouble finding the door.

[00:08:49]>> Once you're in the duckyard, there's no way out. But what if he's an egg thief?

[00:08:59]An >> egg thief? Me? No, you got it all wrong.

[00:09:03]I'll be honest with you, honey. Can I call you honey?

[00:09:06]>> No. Listen, honey. This isn't just any egg. It's my egg.

[00:09:17]>> How could a rat lay an egg?

[00:09:20]>> I didn't. My beautiful lady wife Frankenzilla.

[00:09:27]Frankenzilla.

[00:09:29]May she waddle forever in the big duckard in the sky. Laid this egg moments before she before she I can't say it.

[00:09:45]Why? Why her?

[00:09:49]Why didn't you take me?

[00:09:58]Her last wish was that our baby would be brought up in the duckard she was raised in. The city is no place for a little one.

[00:10:08]>> You're not fooling anyone, mister.

[00:10:12]>> Well, maybe the chickens, but that's about it. Do you really expect us to believe that a rat, the lowest, dirtiest, most double crossing, selfish, nastiest?

[00:10:24]>> Okay. Okay. We all know what a rat is.

[00:10:28]>> Could possibly be the father of an egg.

[00:10:31]Besides, I don't remember any Frankenzilla.

[00:10:36]>> Sure you do. She had feathers and wings >> and uh a beak.

[00:10:46]on her head. What was it she used to say all the time?

[00:10:53]Oh, yeah.

[00:10:55]Quack.

[00:10:56]>> I remember her.

[00:10:58]>> You do, Duffner.

[00:11:00]>> Yeah, nice girl. Feathers, wings, terrible taste in men.

[00:11:07]>> Oh, yeah.

[00:11:10]>> I remember.

[00:11:17]Ah, I can't believe I hugged that thing.

[00:11:42]Grief. That's the idliest duckling I've ever seen.

[00:11:46]>> He's the father. All right.

[00:11:49]>> Now you run along, you ugly. They'll look after you here, >> MAMA.

[00:12:00]Don't touch me.

[00:12:10]Shut up.

[00:12:13]If this duckling is truly one of our own, he can stay in the duckyard. Ugly as he may be. But he's your son, and you must raise him. Otherwise, you just take up space.

[00:12:31]You're right. What sort of a father would I be if I refuse to be a mother to my own son?

[00:12:38]>> Mama.

[00:12:40]And you call me Ratzo.

[00:12:47]Huh?

[00:12:50]H.

[00:12:53]No way out. We'll see about that. Got to find Wesley. We're going to be the biggest thing to hit the carnival since the big wheel fell over. They haven't made a duckyard that can hold Ratzo. At least I don't think they have. It's never really come up before, >> mama.

[00:13:16]>> Mama.

[00:13:19]>> Right. Number one, I don't want you calling me mama or anything else for that matter. Number two, just stay out of my way and everything will be fine.

[00:13:30]Number what's wrong with your face? You look uglier than usual.

[00:13:38]What are you doing?

[00:13:41]What's wrong with you?

[00:13:44]>> What do you want from me?

[00:13:49]>> Huh?

[00:13:51]>> He wants you to be his father.

[00:13:53]>> Oh, that's so sweet. You're really good with him. Would you like to keep him?

[00:13:58]>> Bringing up a child on your own isn't easy, and I should know.

[00:14:02]>> Is this your way of telling me you're single?

[00:14:06]Why don't you take him?

[00:14:21]>> What's that?

[00:14:22]>> That It's a hole. The baby. Thought I'd make him a nice hole to sleep in for the night.

[00:14:31]>> There's an empty paint can by the coupe.

[00:14:34]You could get some straw and stay in that.

[00:14:36]>> Even better.

[00:14:39]>> Good night.

[00:14:40]>> Good night.

[00:14:43]Somebody likes me.

[00:14:48]>> And all the little pixie children began to smile.

[00:14:52]>> For each daughter was prettier than the next.

[00:14:55]>> And the princess with hair of gold and feathers so fair went to find her true love. So she says, "But Ratzo, this is only our first date." And I'm like, "Listen, Sugar Lips, why wait for Christmas when Santa's right here on the dance floor?

[00:15:34]Mama.

[00:15:38]>> Ratso. My name is Ratzo.

[00:15:40]>> Huh? Mama.

[00:15:42]>> Ratzo.

[00:15:43]>> MAMA.

[00:15:44]>> RATSO.

[00:15:44]>> MAMA.

[00:15:45]>> SAY RATZO. DAMN IT.

[00:15:47]>> DAMN IT. NO.

[00:15:48]>> Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it.

[00:15:56]Oh.

[00:15:58]Oh.

[00:16:03]Ah.

[00:16:08]Uh.

[00:16:27]Yay!

[00:16:31]Yay! Yay!

[00:16:45]Help.

[00:17:05]Okay.

[00:17:53]>> Of course you can come.

[00:17:55]You You really think I'd leave you here?

[00:17:59]>> Mama, >> couldn't you at least call me dad? Now go play by the water's edge.

[00:18:06]>> I got some cleaning up to you.

[00:18:32]Come on.

[00:18:49]>> Pretty beautiful, huh?

[00:18:51]>> H What would you know about beauty freak?

[00:18:55]>> Yeah. Stay away from our pond, freak.

[00:19:03]>> So long, freak.

[00:19:06]poor little fellow. Children can be so cruel calling him a freak. I mean, really. Well, let's face it, he is something of a freak, but that doesn't give anyone the right to say so. And it's hardly his fault. With a rat for a father.

[00:19:22]>> Not that anyone believes he really is his father. He's a rat for goodness sake. But that's nobody's business.

[00:19:37]Dad.

[00:19:59]>> I'm sorry. It will work you. Oh, wa. I just had the wildest dream. What does it mean when a penguin eats your hat?

[00:20:10]Is that stress?

[00:20:12]>> There are certain members of the duckyard who've had enough of you and your boy. And this unsightly mess. It's a monstrosity.

[00:20:23]>> Actually, it's a mountain.

[00:20:26]>> A mountain?

[00:20:27]>> Yes. We decided to build our own view.

[00:20:30]Tomorrow we're making a lake.

[00:20:32]>> That's it. I want this mess gone today.

[00:20:36]>> But we just finished digging up.

[00:20:39]>> Digging your what?

[00:20:43]>> Teeth into the show. Tonight was going to be the night.

[00:20:47]>> What show?

[00:20:49]>> Well, why else would we put a stage on our mountain?

[00:20:52]>> Doesn't look like a stage to me.

[00:20:55]>> We just thought, hey, let's give something back. You know, it's what showbiz folk do. A little way of saying thanks.

[00:21:05]>> Oh, I do like a good show. All chickens do. Can't we have just one little?

[00:21:13]>> And the kids got talent.

[00:21:18]>> One and a two and a three and a shake it. Now that's hot. I can't STAND IT.

[00:21:25]WA! YOU'RE KILLING ME. TADA.

[00:21:28]Now that's what I'm talking about.

[00:21:41]>> Very talented.

[00:21:43]>> Oh, >> one show and then I want it gone.

[00:22:09]>> I'm not doing the show.

[00:22:12]>> They'll hate me. I'm no good at anything.

[00:22:16]>> What are you talking about? It's in your blood. You're a natural, just like your old man.

[00:22:21]>> They say that they you're not really my father. Huh? And you believed them?

[00:22:28]>> You sure don't look like me? I got a little beak, little wings, and they're all feathery.

[00:22:36]>> Well, not from the front. You look like your mother from the front.

[00:22:40]>> Like a duck.

[00:22:41]>> I do.

[00:22:42]>> But from behind, you got my looks.

[00:22:46]>> Really?

[00:22:49]>> That's my boy. Now, let's get out there and show them our stuff.

[00:22:54]>> Okay.

[00:22:56]Hi.

[00:22:58]>> I just thought since you didn't have anyone else to wish you luck that I might. Good luck.

[00:23:05]>> Hey, thanks. But we don't need luck.

[00:23:07]>> I do.

[00:23:09]>> Are you sure this is a good idea?

[00:23:11]>> You're so sweet to worry, but don't.

[00:23:31]FINALLY, I'm all >> ladies and ladies, have we got A SHOW FOR YOU TONIGHT? Brace yourself for a night of education. Whoa, >> I know that voice.

[00:24:01]When I first met this little guy, he was nothing. He couldn't sing, couldn't dance, he couldn't even tell a joke.

[00:24:12]>> Nobody would have paid to come and see him. But that's all changed now because tonight he's appearing for free.

[00:24:27]>> Huh?

[00:24:30]What?

[00:24:31]>> How come I got stuck with the most annoying brothers in the >> Well, wow.

[00:24:39]What do we have here?

[00:24:43]>> I GIVE YOU >> UGLY.

[00:24:48]No hard feelings, kid.

[00:25:05]Has he started yet?

[00:25:14]>> OH, GET ON WITH IT. WHAT A RIPOFF.

[00:25:23]It's the point is I found it.

[00:25:26]>> You didn't find it. You fell in it.

[00:25:29]>> You two shut up.

[00:25:37]>> That's when a ratoso shows. All right, Stan. You stay here and guard the tunnel. Frank and I are going to take a look around.

[00:25:55]Maybe he's already gone.

[00:25:57]>> Impossible.

[00:25:58]There's only one way out. And stand. Uh, >> I got a question.

[00:26:02]>> Guarding it.

[00:26:04]>> If at any time I have to come in here and ask you a question, Daniel guards the tunnel.

[00:26:15]>> Free last.

[00:26:32]WESLEY, I'M BACK. Where are you?

[00:26:37]Wesley, >> get moving, boy.

[00:26:47]I knew you'd wait.

[00:26:48]>> Wait. Do you HAVE ANY IDEA HOW long I've been in this bottle?

[00:26:53]>> Hurry up, Dad.

[00:26:55]>> You want him to get away?

[00:27:02]>> Doesn't she ever give up? Let's hope she doesn't know about the carnival.

[00:27:06]>> I AM NOT going to the carnival.

[00:27:21]What a freak, huh?

[00:27:46]That has to be the ugliest duckling in the world.

[00:27:52]>> Ugliest duckling in the world.

[00:27:56]>> How could it have been so stupid? He's perfect.

[00:28:00]>> Wesley, I'm sorry. I've found another act. You might as well JUST GO HOME.

[00:28:04]THAT'S what I was trying to do.

[00:28:24]This isn't going to be easy.

[00:28:31]Okay, SO IT WAS EASY.

[00:28:38]YOU FORGOT ME. I >> forgot you. Don't be silly, my little gold mine. I'd never forget you.

[00:28:46]>> Gold mine.

[00:28:49]>> I meant son.

[00:28:51]>> Does this mean you're taking me with you?

[00:28:55]>> Step right up.

[00:28:56]>> Yay.

[00:29:11]I'm really not sure if this is good for me.

[00:29:14]>> Silence, squirm. I'm looking for Ratzo, and you're going to tell me where he is.

[00:29:20]>> He was going to a carnival. I think he's bringing some kind of duck. But between you and me, love, I don't think the kids got what it takes. Which way?

[00:29:32]>> They went that way.

[00:29:35]>> Let him go.

[00:29:36]>> Could you at least point me in the direction of the secret?

[00:30:00]Dad, >> do you see them? Huh?

[00:30:04]>> Aren't they beautiful?

[00:30:07]>> That's nothing. You want to see beautiful? Just wait till you see the lights of the carnival.

[00:30:12]>> You never told me. What's a carnival?

[00:30:15]>> What's a carnival? Yeah. How can I put this? It's only the greatest place in the world.

[00:30:23]>> Wa. And this, my bizarrel looking little friend, is a map to the carnival.

[00:30:30]See, that's it right there. We're like 3 in away.

[00:30:36]All we have to do is get there.

[00:30:38]>> Huh?

[00:30:39]>> My cousin Ernie will do the rest. He's very big in the biz.

[00:30:43]>> Your cousin would do that for us? Wow, he sounds like a true friend.

[00:30:49]>> More of a pen pal than a friend.

[00:30:52]>> You never met him?

[00:30:53]>> I'm curious. Did I teach you to talk? I don't remember teaching you to talk. I don't remember anybody teaching you to talk. And yet you talk.

[00:31:10]>> Those woods look kind of creepy.

[00:31:13]>> You don't have to be scared of the woods. They can't hurt you. It's the things that live in the woods you should be worried about.

[00:31:23]Okay. Okay. Look. When you get scared, all you have to do is cry out for help and Ratzo the Ruthless will.

[00:31:36]>> No, not like that. Like this. Help me.

[00:31:41]Ratso the Ruthless. Okay.

[00:31:44]>> Okay.

[00:31:46]Dad, I've been thinking about the carnival. Are we really going to be famous?

[00:31:52]>> With your talent and my greed, we can't fail.

[00:31:55]>> But what talent? They just laughed at me.

[00:31:59]>> Yes, but they never got to see you dance. You got a dancer's physique, just like your mom.

[00:32:08]>> My mom was a dancer.

[00:32:10]>> Oh, yeah. Very light on her flippers.

[00:32:13]>> I see a lot of her in you. Now, dance for me. Uh now >> yes >> but but I can't >> dance.

[00:32:36]>> This is going to be huge.

[00:32:40]>> Let's not wear ourselves out. But you truly have a gift. How many legs do you have?

[00:32:47]>> Legs? How many?

[00:32:50]>> Uh, two.

[00:32:51]>> Incredible. I find it hard to believe that someone with only two legs could dance with such magnificence.

[00:32:59]Just two? Are you sure? Have you counted them recently?

[00:33:05]>> Just two?

[00:33:17]Heat. Heat. Heat.

[00:33:38]Huh?

[00:33:52]>> Help me.

[00:33:59]That was close. Let's get out of here.

[00:34:02]>> But Dad, she asked us to help her.

[00:34:05]>> No, she didn't. She said, "Leave me." I can see how you were confused.

[00:34:15]>> Ugly.

[00:34:16]>> Here comes Lat.

[00:34:19]>> Oh no.

[00:34:33]Run away.

[00:34:35]Hurry.

[00:34:43]>> Listen, miss. Don't take this wrong. I mean, I think you're a greatl looking lady. A Foxy Vixen.

[00:34:51]You're just the smallest bit. Oh, I don't know. Chunky around the hips. Not a lot, but you know, a little. I was the same way. And you know how I lost it? I completely cut out snacking. If you don't eat us, this could be you.

[00:35:14]>> Please don't eat me.

[00:35:17]You can't.

[00:35:19]I'm a mother now.

[00:35:25]>> I can't eat that.

[00:35:31]>> You know, you wouldn't be the first rat who made it onto my menu.

[00:35:42]>> You make me sick.

[00:35:45]Really?

[00:35:48]So long, chunky.

[00:35:59]>> Huh? Did I say something?

[00:36:02]>> No.

[00:36:02]>> No.

[00:36:03]>> That's strange. Are you sure?

[00:36:06]>> Yes.

[00:36:07]>> I didn't say something like, "Hey guys, why don't you take a break?"

[00:36:11]>> No.

[00:36:12]>> Then why are you taking a break?

[00:36:18]Can't we just go back to the city and get someone else?

[00:36:24]>> Frank's right.

[00:36:28]>> We've got to find him. There is no one else.

[00:36:38]>> The sooner we get to the carnival, the better. Boy, have I got some stories for Ernie. Would you mind if I built up the whole me fighting the fox thing? Maybe added a little sword fight.

[00:36:55]>> What is it now, Chuckles?

[00:36:57]>> You didn't scare the fox away. I did with my ugly face.

[00:37:03]>> True. Although, I still think the sword fight sounds better, but we can work that out on the way.

[00:37:09]>> I'm just an ugly freak.

[00:37:12]>> But that's the point. That's the point >> of life. That's the point of life. If everybody was the same, the world would be a very boring place, right?

[00:37:25]Anyway, you're not as different as you might think. Deep down, everybody's >> beautiful.

[00:37:32]>> No, everybody's ugly. You see, beautiful people spend all their time trying to stay beautiful, but beauty is a passing thing. And by the time they figure that out, they've wasted their lives on hand cream and early nights. It's guys like you and me that have all the fun.

[00:37:50]>> I still don't get it.

[00:37:52]>> Don't worry, it'll all make sense when you grow up.

[00:38:00]>> I can't wait till I'm a grownup.

[00:38:04]>> Don't hold your breath, kid.

[00:38:06]>> Growing up isn't something that happens overnight.

[00:38:29]Who are you?

[00:38:31]>> I'm ugly.

[00:38:33]>> I can see that.

[00:38:35]>> No, I mean it's me. Ugly. Huh? Freaky, this is great. I mean, you were ugly before, but now >> I think you've really grown into yourself.

[00:38:54]>> Really?

[00:38:55]>> Sure.

[00:38:56]>> Well, don't go on about it.

[00:38:59]>> What was all that about?

[00:39:01]>> I don't know.

[00:39:08]Well, that's not annoying.

[00:39:10]>> I can't help it. I feel weird.

[00:39:13]>> Not that you care.

[00:39:15]>> Now what?

[00:39:16]>> You wouldn't understand.

[00:39:18]>> Understand what?

[00:39:19]>> Exactly.

[00:39:20]>> You've changed.

[00:39:22]>> Duh.

[00:39:24]>> Interesting.

[00:39:25]What if I was to ask you to give me a hug?

[00:39:29]>> You are so embarrassing.

[00:39:31]>> I see. And what if I told you you weren't allowed to fly until you were 16?

[00:39:37]>> No way. You can't do that. That is so unfair.

[00:39:41]>> I think I know what's wrong with you.

[00:39:43]>> You You do?

[00:39:44]>> Yeah. I've seen this kind of thing before. It even happened to me once.

[00:39:49]You've turned into a teenager. This is all I need.

[00:39:54]>> What's wrong with being a teenager?

[00:39:55]>> What's wrong with it? I'll tell you what's wrong with it. First of all, you're going to want to have a mind of your own.

[00:40:02]>> Don't tell me what to think, Dad.

[00:40:04]>> But, Dad, >> then you'll lose all respect for me.

[00:40:07]Like, I'm ashamed of you, old man. Now, you tell me. How am I supposed to get things done with you acting up all the time?

[00:40:15]>> But, >> typical teenager, prime of your life, and you just lie around the place.

[00:40:22]>> But, Dad, I don't know how to be a teenager.

[00:40:26]>> It's easy. You just speak funny. Be rude to your parents and fall in love with the first girl who smiles at you.

[00:40:32]>> Hi.

[00:40:33]>> Huh?

[00:40:37]>> It's you.

[00:40:39]Huh?

[00:40:41]>> Jesse. And look who's all grown up.

[00:40:49]>> Cut it out, sister.

[00:40:50]>> Boy, I'm glad to see you guys. I've been looking everywhere.

[00:40:54]>> I'll bet.

[00:40:55]>> I didn't think I'd ever catch up with you. That fox banged me up pretty good.

[00:40:59]I think my wing is broken.

[00:41:01]>> Does it hurt?

[00:41:03]>> A little.

[00:41:06]>> Back it up, Jeff. Right, >> Jesse?

[00:41:10]>> Whatever. Nice to see you, but we really got to be going.

[00:41:13]>> But Dad, >> let's go, ugly.

[00:41:16]>> I was wondering. You see, my family have already flown south for the winter. And well, do you think I could tag along with you two for a while?

[00:41:24]>> Oh, that would be great. Just until my wing gets better.

[00:41:28]>> Not a chance. Me and my boy work alone.

[00:41:31]Plus, I have a no girls on adventures policy.

[00:41:34]>> It's just that I really don't fancy my chances here in Fox country.

[00:41:38]>> You'd only slow us down.

[00:41:43]>> Come on.

[00:41:50]Okay, I've thought about it and have decided to let Jeff come along on a trial basis.

[00:41:59]What are you waiting for? Let's go.

[00:42:08]Huh?

[00:42:11]Looks like the worm was right. Ratzo has found himself a little friend.

[00:42:23]So that's what that blue line means.

[00:42:30]It looked so cute on the map. How are we ever going to get across that?

[00:42:35]>> It's easy. All we have to do is >> Whoa, whoa. I was talking to me. You can tag along, but I'm calling the shots here. But I >> I can do this.

[00:42:44]>> Fine.

[00:42:57]>> Huh? It looks pretty thin.

[00:43:00]>> By the way, the other thing about teenagers is they they love adventure.

[00:43:05]The more danger, the better.

[00:43:07]>> Oh, no. We're not going out there. There you go with that mind of your own thing again. You have to go first. I can't swim.

[00:43:17]>> But we're heavier than you.

[00:43:19]>> Exactly. If you make it, I'll definitely be safe.

[00:43:23]>> In that case, we're definitely not going.

[00:43:26]>> You have to.

[00:43:27]>> Why?

[00:43:27]>> Well, well, because I'm the grown-up and I tell you to.

[00:43:33]>> Why?

[00:43:33]>> Because because Okay, fine.

[00:43:38]I'll do it. But I'm warning you. If anything happens to me, you'll be heartbroken. Sending his own father out onto an icy death trip. I'm really going to do this, you know.

[00:43:50]>> Sure you are.

[00:43:51]>> Watch me.

[00:43:56]Listen here, young man. I've had just about enough of you carrying on. And if I ask you to do something in future, you'd better just darn well do it.

[00:44:24]DAD UGLY.

[00:44:30]>> DAD. NO. UGLY. Don't >> ugly.

[00:44:54]Oh no.

[00:45:04]Hurry.

[00:45:11]Dad, your head.

[00:45:21]>> Ugly.

[00:45:23]Ugly, are you all right?

[00:45:27]>> I guess so.

[00:45:28]>> That was amazing.

[00:45:30]>> It was.

[00:45:32]>> Are you kidding?

[00:45:34]First you saved my life and now Ratzos.

[00:45:37]>> It's not such a big deal. I just >> You heard him. No big deal. Listen, Jeff, if that even is your real name, if your wing is really broken, which it isn't, then how did you get across the river?

[00:45:51]>> I used the bridge.

[00:45:54]I tried to tell you.

[00:45:57]>> Huh?

[00:45:58]>> Excuse me.

[00:46:02]Oh, no.

[00:46:28]Huh?

[00:46:33]What?

[00:46:39]>> It's aha.

[00:46:59]It's nice that you let Jesse rest while we get the wood.

[00:47:02]>> Yeah, well, sometimes you have to give women a little privacy, otherwise they'll talk to you.

[00:47:09]>> What do you think of Jesse?

[00:47:11]>> I wish the fox had eaten her.

[00:47:13]>> I like her, too. How do you like your sling? Is it okay?

[00:47:17]>> It's perfect.

[00:47:20]>> Listen, ugly. I don't want you to say anything. Just listen. And no tears. I hate tears. I've been doing a lot of thinking and maybe I haven't been the best dad, but I was getting used to the job. I'm even starting to miss it when it was just the two of us, if you can believe that.

[00:47:42]And I I know you like this girl and all and and I don't blame you much, but we're a family now. We got each other.

[00:47:51]We don't need anybody else.

[00:47:55]I'm sorry. I don't even know why I'm laughing. Wait a minute. That's not me.

[00:48:12]>> Hey.

[00:48:15]>> Well, go on then. I'm waiting.

[00:48:18]>> I can't do it here. I feel silly. If you can't dance in front of me, then how are you going to be able to dance in front of an audience?

[00:48:27]>> Well, okay. Here goes.

[00:48:33]>> Yeah. Come on. Woo.

[00:48:47]You are too funny.

[00:48:52]Oh, you're serious.

[00:48:56]>> Oh, >> no. Wait. I didn't mean to laugh. I I just wasn't expecting something. So, I just thought you would be less.

[00:49:07]>> I think the word you're looking for is ugly.

[00:49:13]>> Nice going, Jesse.

[00:49:31]So, how are you kids this morning? Sleep well?

[00:49:36]>> You couldn't be happier, could you?

[00:49:38]>> Whatever could you mean?

[00:49:40]>> You know exactly what I mean. You've been trying to turn ugly against me since the moment we met.

[00:49:46]>> For his own good. You're nothing but trouble.

[00:49:49]>> What?

[00:49:50]>> Let me see. So far, you've broken your wing, his heart, and my blanket.

[00:49:56]>> I broke his heart. You're the one who told him he could dance.

[00:50:00]>> What were you thinking? He's going to look like a a freak up there.

[00:50:06]>> But you already know that, don't you?

[00:50:09]>> Look, success is success. Do you really think that once he's got it, he's going to care where it came from? How can you say that? You're all he's got. He trusts you.

[00:50:21]>> Well, I never asked him to.

[00:50:24]Come on, Ugly. We're going.

[00:50:27]>> Don't go. Ugly.

[00:50:28]>> Stay out of it, Jeff.

[00:50:30]>> Ow.

[00:50:30]>> Dad, >> don't poke me.

[00:50:32]>> I didn't.

[00:50:35]>> Why don't you both just leave me alone?

[00:50:37]>> Ugly. Come back.

[00:50:38]>> Stay away from me. I can take care of myself.

[00:50:42]>> NOW look what you've done.

[00:51:00]Ugly.

[00:51:01]>> Easy there, ugly.

[00:51:03]>> That hurt.

[00:51:05]>> The carnival.

[00:51:06]>> That's right, buddy. We're going to the carnival.

[00:51:09]>> No, Rato. The carnival.

[00:51:23]Ugly, we did it.

[00:51:30]Come on, Ugg. Let's roll.

[00:51:38]Sing along with me now.

[00:51:52]Oh, it's me. Lucky day.

[00:51:54]>> GIVE IT TO ME, RO.

[00:51:55]>> Give it to me.

[00:51:56]>> GIVE IT TO ME.

[00:51:56]>> GIVE it to me.

[00:52:01]>> Hey fellas, you know where I could find Ernie?

[00:52:05]>> Who wants to know?

[00:52:06]>> Me?

[00:52:07]>> Yeah, but who are you? I'm Ratzo, Ernie's cousin.

[00:52:16]>> You're Ernie's cousin?

[00:52:20]>> YES.

[00:52:40]HELLO, RATZO.

[00:52:43]Happy to see me?

[00:52:44]>> Yes, wet. Well, of course. I've been looking all over for you.

[00:52:48]>> Sure you have.

[00:52:53]>> Ratzo, >> that's far enough, Bird. Now, where were we? Let's all just calm down while I explain.

[00:53:10]>> What's the matter, Ratco? Cat got your tongue?

[00:53:29]>> Hold on. I'm coming. ugly. No.

[00:53:49]>> Nice try.

[00:53:51]>> Oh, great.

[00:53:55]>> What? What's the matter? TOO DUMMY?

[00:53:59]>> OH, they shouldn't laugh at him. Oh, they've got him mad now.

[00:54:02]>> Yeah, I'm talking to you.

[00:54:06]>> Fight, man. Come on.

[00:54:22]FIGHT.

[00:55:09]FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT.

[00:55:19]COME ON, FLY.

[00:55:21]>> OH, EASY ON THERE.

[00:55:25]PUSH.

[00:55:26]>> Go on. YOU GOT HIM. NEW. HE CAN'T GET AWAY.

[00:55:30]PUSH. PUSH. PUSH. PUSH. BAD. PUSH. PUSH.

[00:55:32]PUSH.

[00:55:34]>> RELOAD.

[00:55:41]What gift? Ernie, eat them. William.

[00:55:44]What?

[00:55:47]Ernie, >> cousin Ernie.

[00:55:51]>> Yeah.

[00:55:55]>> Get closer.

[00:56:01]>> Oh, RZo.

[00:56:02]>> How can a rat be related to a cat?

[00:56:06]>> Who cares? How are we going to get to Ratzo now?

[00:56:10]>> Yeah, here we go. H.

[00:56:14]>> It's obvious >> Ernie must have been adopted.

[00:56:19]>> Not that. We don't need to get to Rapso.

[00:56:23]We'll get him to come to us.

[00:56:32]>> Oh, this is nice. It's been so long since I had family around. I thought I was going to go crazy. Ask William.

[00:56:40]He'll tell you. Tell him yourself, fatso.

[00:56:42]>> William, please. Not in front of family.

[00:56:45]>> Family?

[00:56:46]>> Are you sure we're related?

[00:56:48]>> It's obvious. I'm furry. You're furry.

[00:56:51]We both got eyes.

[00:56:53]>> And we're both pretty.

[00:56:57]>> If that's your cousin, I'm your mother.

[00:57:02]>> Ah, here we are. Tonight, we'll give them a show they'll never forget.

[00:57:08]>> Tonight.

[00:57:08]>> Oh, yeah. And not a moment too soon.

[00:57:12]Ventriloquism isn't so popular anymore.

[00:57:14]We've had a really bad summer.

[00:57:16]>> And I wonder why. OH YES, YOU'RE NO TALENT BUM.

[00:57:20]>> WILLIAM.

[00:57:22]ANYWAY, the point is we really need a new act. Which reminds me, what's your big act anyway?

[00:57:29]>> My act? Oh, it's uh Well, it's It's uh it's >> it's me.

[00:57:44]>> Huh?

[00:57:44]>> I'm the show. Ah, how nice.

[00:57:50]>> Look, guys, about the show. Maybe >> I know what you're thinking. What to wear, right? Don't worry. We'll fix you right up.

[00:58:00]>> You don't think we send you out on stage wearing that, do you?

[00:58:03]>> But this is my fur.

[00:58:05]>> That's fur. You don't have to do this, you know.

[00:58:09]>> What do you mean?

[00:58:10]>> Can't you see he's using you?

[00:58:11]>> What do you care? Oh, you're the one who laughed at me.

[00:58:15]>> Wake up, ugly. Do you really think he's putting you on stage to dance?

[00:58:19]>> Not everybody looks at me and sees the monster that you do.

[00:58:34]There it is.

[00:58:43]H.

[00:58:45]You see, it's perfect.

[00:58:49]Not to mention cat proof.

[00:58:54]>> Who are you and what are you doing in my duckyard?

[00:59:00]>> Frank, >> I'm on it.

[00:59:15]That's settled. Then Stan, go and make the arrangements.

[00:59:19]>> Oh, yeah.

[00:59:20]>> I have business to attend to.

[00:59:24]>> ALL RIGHT. All right. I'm going. I'm going.

[00:59:41]Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. He goes and she goes, "Welcome to the show."

[00:59:48]>> Can you believe how big that audience is?

[00:59:51]>> Pretty unbelievable.

[00:59:53]>> I would have given up a long time ago if it hadn't been for you. Whatever happens here, I've got you to thank.

[01:00:00]>> Listen, ugly, about the show.

[01:00:06]>> How do I look?

[01:00:09]>> We got a show for you. TELL THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY want to hear, will you?

[01:00:13]>> Oh, it's big. It's horrific. It's hilarious. And it's here.

[01:00:21]>> And there's only one guy we have to thank for that. PLEASE WELCOME MY VERY own cousin. And I'm not going to lie to you. He's preachy. REXO, >> you're up. Ratzo, the crowd is on fire.

[01:00:38]>> No, >> maybe maybe you're not quite ready.

[01:00:44]>> Don't worry about me, Dad. It's in my blood, remember?

[01:00:48]>> But you're a natural, just like your old man.

[01:01:07]We've come a long way to be here tonight and and it wasn't easy.

[01:01:13]>> Oh, for heaven's sake.

[01:01:14]>> This is rubbish.

[01:01:15]>> Oh, >> it was fun.

[01:01:22]Hey, get on with it.

[01:01:26]>> But now we're here and and we're ready.

[01:01:29]>> The question is, are you >> I'm sorry. I just can't do it.

[01:01:40]>> Ah, come on.

[01:01:44]>> Oh, that an act.

[01:01:47]>> It's gone into ratsome.

[01:01:48]>> He's ruining everything. Honey, I'M STARTING TO PANIC.

[01:01:52]>> DON'T PANIC. DON'T PANIC.

[01:01:54]>> What are we going to do?

[01:01:59]>> I CAN'T FEEL MY LEGS. I CAN'T FEEL MY LEGS.

[01:02:02]>> I'M GOING ON.

[01:02:10]>> That has to be the ugliest duckling in the world.

[01:02:31]The only darling in the world.

[01:02:40]Is that why you brought me here? For people to laugh at me? No, Jesse was right. That's the only reason you wanted me around.

[01:02:53]>> Yes.

[01:02:58]I guess I'm stupid and ugly.

[01:03:30]Oh, >> NO.

[01:03:42]OH, UGLY.

[01:03:50]>> If you ever want to see your freaky friend again, Ranso, you'll buy those at the duckard.

[01:03:57]>> YOUR CRAZY CAT CAN'T HELP you there.

[01:04:00]>> CRAZY.

[01:04:11]MARVELOUS.

[01:04:12]>> OH, BRILLIANT.

[01:04:28]>> Do try to keep the place tidy. We're expecting a very important guest. You'll be waiting a long time if you expect that rat to come to anyone's rescue.

[01:04:39]>> He's the lowest, dirtiest, most double crossing, selfish, nasty rat in the whole world.

[01:04:56]>> Ma'am, step right up.

[01:05:00]>> Sure.

[01:05:02]Yeah, Ernie, >> just go ahead. I'll catch up with you.

[01:05:44]>> Okay.

[01:06:08]Forget it. This place is BUILT TO KEEP OUT CATS. COME ON FOR AIR.

[01:06:12]>> NEVER. I've got to keep trying. Plus, my head's stuck.

[01:06:22]Help us over.

[01:06:40]>> Come on. We have to swim for it.

[01:06:42]>> I can't do it. I'm afraid of the water.

[01:06:45]>> What?

[01:06:46]>> All cats are.

[01:06:49]>> Wait a second. I'm not a cat.

[01:06:52]Jump on, William. You're a genius.

[01:07:08]>> Hy.

[01:07:09]>> Oh, it's stuck.

[01:07:19]Huh?

[01:07:45]Woo!

[01:07:47]Well, it's about time.

[01:07:51]>> Let it go, Phyllis.

[01:07:52]>> I really don't think you're in any position to give orders.

[01:07:59]>> Uh-oh.

[01:08:01]>> Have you met my family?

[01:08:09]>> Oh, yeah.

[01:08:11]>> Oh, no.

[01:08:13]I'm sorry.

[01:08:17]WHAT?

[01:08:24]>> That's my boy Ernie.

[01:08:27]>> Am I happy to see you?

[01:08:29]>> Let's shave my legs and call me princess. It looks like we've got ourselves A FIGHT.

[01:08:35]>> ATTACK.

[01:09:01]WHAT?

[01:09:10]Come on. Put him up. Put him up. Put him up.

[01:09:19]>> Yes.

[01:09:20]Oh no.

[01:09:29]>> No.

[01:09:30]Boy, TALK TO ME.

[01:09:34]HEY ERNIE. OH, >> somebody call a vet.

[01:09:53]>> What can you see?

[01:09:55]>> It's not good.

[01:10:00]I guess by tomorrow it'll all be over for me.

[01:10:05]There's there's something I have to tell you.

[01:10:09]>> It's not important. You came back for me. That's all that matters, Dad.

[01:10:14]>> Yes. Well, you see, that's the thing.
