Lost Opportunities and Unexpected Apologies
Brittany Now we'll never get to perform at the International Music Awards.
Eleanor I guess now we're the losers.
[makes an 'L' with her fingers, putting it on top of her head, Brittany does the same]
Zoe Jeanette... I don't know what to say. I guess I was just so obsessed with finding that treasure that I kind of... I lost it. And I'm...I'm really sorry. We both are.
[turns to Jeanette; sighs; holds up Dunlop]
Jeanette Oh, well, apology accepted. Here... I want you to have this.
[looks at Zoe and smiles awkwardly; grabs the gold bracelet on her head that Simon (as Simone) gave her and holds it out to her]
Zoe Really? Look, Dunlop, this is a new beginning for both of us.
[gasps; chuckles and grabs the gold bracelet and puts it on Dunlop's "head"; smiles at Jeanette]
Jeanette I hope you don't mind. Simone... gave it to me.
[shocked but smiles awkwardly at Zoe again; not wanting to seem mean. Simon jumps off and walks up to her. Jeanette smiles nervously at him.; chuckles nervously]
Simon Oh, n-no, I don't mind. Y-You know, Jeanette, even the most perfect gem cannot compare to your... beauty.
[barely able to make eye contact with her]
Alvin Um, Dave?
Dave Yes, Alvin?
Alvin I just wanted to say, now that we're not all...you know... dead Sorry.... Sorry. Hm? Heh, Sorry I was acting like a child on the ship. And kind of maybe ruined our family vacation.
[coughs; chuckles]
Dave Sometimes a racehorse needs a little room to run.
Alvin Yes. Yeah. I like where your head's at. That is very wise, David.
[gives Dave a fist bump]
Ian Sup? What, no love for Uncle Ian?
[holds out fist for a fist bump also but no one gives him one]
Brittany and Eleanor You put us in cages!
Ian Seriously? Are we still talking about that?! New subject: I saved Dave's life!
Theodore Okay, but I'll be watching you, mister!
[looks at Ian through the spyglass]
Dave Alvin, you still have that pocketknife I gave you?
[looks up at the sky, then back at Alvin]
Alvin Knife? Oh, right! Sorry, I meant to give it back.
[chuckles; pulls it out of his jacket]
Dave I want you to keep it.
Alvin Really?
Dave Maybe you can use it to signal that helicopter.
[points to the sky]
Ian What? Hey!
[jumps up]
Eleanor Hey!
Brittany We're down here!
Dave Hello!
Ian It's me, Ian Hawke! Jett Records!
Ian Guys, circle around!
Rescue crew guy in the Helicopter Everything's okay! We got you, guys!
A Tense Moment Among Friends
Alvin Zoe!
Zoe No, no. Not another step! Don't come any closer!
[holds the rope that's holding Jeanette]
Dave Are you all right, Jeanette?
Jeanette I'm pretty freaked out, and those earrings tasted awful! Blegh!
[spits out all the treasure from her mouth]
Alvin Zoe, you don't have to do this!
Zoe Oh, I don't? I spent ten years looking for this treasure. It's the whole reason why I came to this stinking island!
Alvin You mean... you mean you didn't crash-land?
Zoe They said that I was crazy and they said that this map was a fake! And now the treasure…is MINE!
[pulls out map]
Alvin RUN!
Dave Jeanette, come on! Come on! Run!
Zoe No, you don't!
Alvin Jeanette!
[looks back]
Jeanette Oh, no, help!
[panicking]
Zoe You're going back in that cave, and you are going to get me more treasure!
[pulling the rope to drag Jeanette to her]
Simon JEANETTE!
Jeanette Simone!
Simon It's Simon!
[adjusting his glasses]
Dave ALVIIIIIN!
Alvin Hurry!
[turns to look at Dave, who throws him the aforementioned pocketknife. He jumps after it, catches it with one paw, flips it open and cuts the rope, causing Zoe to fall on her back.]
Dave Come on, guys, go! Go, go! Come on, come on.
A Moment of Sacrifice and Friendship
Dave Let go!
Simone I've been hit!
[falls dramatically]
Theodore By Dave's necklace?
[tugs the necklace with his paws.]
Simone Tell Jeanette I will watch over her... with angel wings.
[plays dead]
Theodore Dave?
[picks up the candy necklace. Dave rolls onto his belly, and the two of them make eye contact; their mouths gradually curl into smiles]
Dave Ha-ha, Theodore!
[picks up Theodore, overjoyed; Theodore hugs his shoulder]
Simone Dave? Ha ha! Told you we'd find him!
[climbs a tree]
Dave Simon!
Simone It is Simone, but I am often confused for this Simon fellow. Perhaps we look alike?
[leans on the tree's branch]
Dave Simone?
[confused]
Theodore Ian!
[sees Ian comes out of the bush]
Ian Hey, you found the chubby one.
Dave Don't worry, Theodore. Nothing's gonna happen to you. Is it?
Theodore What was that?!
[whimpers]
Ian Uh, that's an active volcano.
Alvin Okay, Brittany and I will build the deck. Eleanor, you need to start braiding ropes. Jeanette, find as many coconuts and mangoes as you can. Who knows how long we'll be out there.
Dave What can I do to help?
[walks up behind them]
The Chipettes Dave!
The Chipettes You found us! Yay!
Brittany We missed you so much!
Jeanette I knew you would find us!
Dave Eleanor! What happened?
Eleanor Oh, nothing... just a little... zip-line accident.
Dave A what?!
Eleanor I'm fine. It only hurts when I try to explain it.
[picks up the crutch, smiling at Dave awkwardly]
Dave Okay, you know what? Never mind. The important thing is you guys are safe. Alvin? Everything's gonna be okay. Hey, what is it?
[looks up to see Alvin, who, not looking too happy, can barely look at him. He drops Brittany and Jeanette down carefully and walks over to the barrel that Alvin is standing on.]
Alvin I thought you'd never find us... that you weren't even looking...
[on the verge of tears]
Dave Why wouldn't I look for you?
[confused]
Alvin Because I'm such a pain in the...
Dave Alvin.
[interrupting him, reassuringly]
Alvin I know, you don't think I'm a pain.
Dave No, you're a pain. But I'd come, no matter what.
The Chipettes *sigh with happiness*
Simone Arc de Triomphe, mayonnaise, Napoleon...
Ian Ugh. I get it, Frenchie; you come from a rich history. Well, guess what? We're ALL gonna be history if we don't get out of here.
The Chipettes Uncle Ian?!
[terrified]
Alvin What's he doing here?
Dave It's kind of a long story.
Theodore Don't worry, he's cool.
Simone Yes, for a pelican man.
Alvin Oh yeah, nothing cooler than a grown man in a pelican suit.
Alvin So, Dave, how are we gonna get out of here?
Dave I don't know, Alvin, I think you've got this under control.
Alvin Theodore, you and Eleanor are on rope duty. Dave and Ian, we need oars. Simone, you and Jeanette are in charge of food. And, Zoe...
[smiles]
Zoe No, I know, I know. I'm gonna go and I'm gonna pack up my balls!
[walks away]
Dave Who's that?
Alvin Another long story.
Disobedience in a Dangerous Situation
Alvin Dave. I'm coming with you.
Dave Absolutely not, it's too dangerous.
[looks at Alvin]
Alvin Remember I said someday I may need to disobey you? Sorry, Dave, but I gotta disobey you.
Dave Let's go.
[resignedly]
Zoe You're not coming up until you have every last bit of that treasure!
[puts her close to the hole so she can fit in]
Jeanette B-B-But the volcano's about to explode!
[stammering]
Zoe Well, then I guess you better hurry, huh?
