Lord Business Reveals His Frustration and Plans
Lord Business
Although, you did let the Piece of Resistance go. The one thing that can ruin my plans, the one thing that I asked you to take care of! That's super frustrating, it makes me just wanna pick up whoever's standing closet to me and just... THROW THEM THROUGH THIS WINDOW, AND OUT INTO THE INFINITE ABYSS OF NOTHINGNESS! I wanna do it so bad!
[Lord Business comes over to Bad Cop and puts one arm around his shoulder; camera pans down to show the abyss going to a different world then returns to the two. He picks up Bad Cop, takes him to the large glass window, and bangs his head against it]
Bad Cop
I know you do, sir. But please! Please, don't.
Lord Business
And it's not just you, Bad Cop, that keeps messing up my plans. People everywhere are always messing with my stuff. But I have a way to fix that. A way to keep things exactly the way they are supposed to be permanently. Behold the most powerful weapon of all the relics: THE KRAZY, RASCALLY, ASSISTANT, GLUE, LOCKER, ERASER!!! OTHERWISE KNOWN AS... THE KRAGLE! IT WILL DESTROY THEM ALL, FOREVER! As you can see, they're loading the Kragle in a big machine upstairs while sucking up apples and trees. I can also call it: The "Tentacle Arm Kragle Outside Sprayer", or TAKOS! The "S" is silent. So, on Taco Tuesday, it's going to spray the Kragle over everyone and everything with a bunch of super scary nozzles, like this one. I'll show you how it works.
[as he throws Bad Cop aside; he turns on his TV monitor which shows his robots carrying the box containing the Kragle; his robots open the box containing the Kragle and take it out; we see the Kragle is in fact an old tube of Krazy Glue. Bad Cop gasps; the tentacle reaches out and comes over to Bad Cop]

Survival and teamwork in unexpected situations
Vitruvius
Well, we're still alive.
Unikitty
Yeah!
Wyldstyle
The double decker couch! It wasn't totally pointless after all!
Benny
It's the one thing that stayed together.
[to Emmet]
Vitruvius
I always believed in you, Emmet.
Batman
I don't mean to spoil the party, but does anyone else notice we're stuck in the middle of the ocean on this couch? I mean, it's not like a big, gigantic ship is just gonna come out of nowhere and save us. My gosh!
[suddenly, a big, gigantic ship becomes visible as it comes over to them]
Metalbeard
Avast, maties! I have returned!

Unlocking Potential Through Imagination and Collaboration
Emmet
What are you doing?
[Vitruvius goes over to Emmet and puts his hands against Emmet's head; Vitruvius pulls off Emmet's hair revealing his Lego head]
Vitruvius
We are entering your mind.
Emmet
WHAT?!
Vitruvius
...to prove that you have the unlocked potential to be a Master Builder.
[starts chanting in a magical language; Vitruvius and Wyldstyle start bowing and moving around Emmet until finally we see all of them in Emmet's mind which is a vast empty space]
Emmet
Whoa, are we inside my brain right now? It's big. I must be smart.
Wyldstyle
Mm-Hmmm.
Vitruvius
I'm not hearin a lot of activity here.
Wyldstyle
I don't think he's ever had an original thought in his life.
Emmet
That's not true. For instance, one time I wanted to have a bunch of my friends over to watch TV. Not unlike this TV that just showed up magically. And not everybody could fit on my one couch. And I thought to myself, well, what if there's such a thing as a bunk bed, but as a couch? Introducing the Double Decker Couch. So everyone could watch TV, together, and be buddies!
[chuckles; a TV forms behind him; a couch forms behind him; the couch forms into a double decker couch; dead silence]
Wyldstyle
That's literally the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
Vitruvius
Please, Wyldstyle. Let me handle this. That idea is just the worst.

Unexpected Warning in a Tense Moment

He's coming... Cover your butt.

[laughs evilly, removed his [[Jim Carrey; cut to Vitruvius as the camera also zooms into him]
Vitruvius
Lord Business.
[cut to Lord Business as extends his legs and Vitruvius]
Lord Business
You've hidden the Kragle well, old man. Robots, destroy him!
[cuts to Lord Business]
Robot
Yes, Lord Business.
[monotone; the robots marched in; cuts to Vitruvius]
Vitruvius
Your robots are no match for a Master Builder, for I see everything! My eyes! Ow!
[he summons bats to attack Lord Business; a red laser pointer shoots at Vitruvius, blinding him]
Lord Business
The Kragle, the most powerful super weapon is mine. Oh, the Kragle! Now my evil power will be unlimited! Can you feel me?!
[after knocking down Vitruvius, Lord Business goes over to the Kragle; He opens the case. We see something glowing; laughs evilly as his horns shoot fire]
Robot
I can feel you.
[his robots start carrying the Kragle away]
Lord Business
WHOO! Nothing's gonna stop me now!
Vitruvius
Wait, there's a prophecy.
Lord Business
Oh, now there's a prophecy.
Vitruvius
About the Piece of Resistance.
Lord Business
Oh, yes, the supposed missing Piece of Resistance that can somehow magically disarm the Kragle, gimme a break!
[he turns to Vitruvius; Vitruvius rises and turns to face Lord Business, suddenly, his eyes shine brightly]
Vitruvius
One day a talented lass or fellow, a Special one with face of yellow, will make the Piece of Resistance found from its hiding refuge underground, and with a noble army at the helm, this Master Builder will thwart the Kragle and save the realm, and be the greatest, most interesting, most important person of all times, all this is true, because it rhymes.
[as he tells the prophecy, his glowing eyes visions of the Lego brick; a Lego minifigure; and the minifigure falls down into strange world]
Lord Business
Oh, wow, that was a great, inspiring legend... that you made up.
[sarcastically; Business kicks Vitruvius off the ledge with his giant robot leg]
Vitruvius
Ahhhhhh!
Lord Business
A special one? What a bunch of hippy-dippy baloney!
[Business also kicks the Special off the ledge with his giant robot leg]
Emmet Brickowski
Good morning, apartment! Good morning, doorway! Good morning, clock. Good morning, wall. Good morning, ceiling. Good morning, floor! Ready to start the day! Ah, here it is! The instructions to fit in, have everybody like you, and always be happy! Step one; breathe. Okay, got that one down. Step two; greet the day, smile and say...
[cuts to the row of bookshelf; he looks for it and grabs a book from a shelf; cuts to a close-up instruction book; he reads the front cover manual; cuts to Emmet inhales and exhales deeply; cuts to the page of instruction book; cut to exterior apartment; all the Lego citizens opening their windows and yelling]
LEGO® Citizens
Good morning, city!
[the citizens all say, "Good morning, city!"; camera zooms out to show the city]

Emmet

Comb your hair. Wear clothes. Oop! Almost forgot that one! No. No. Uh-uh. No. Not that. Wrong. And that's it, check. Step 10: eat the instructions. Step 11: eat a complete breakfast with all the special people in your life. Hey, Planty! What do you want to do this morning? Watch TV? Me too!
[he start jumping on the spot; cuts to the page of instruction book; cuts to Emmet gets in the shower and starts washing himself; he screams as the soap gets into his eyes; cuts Emmet standing in front of the bathroom mirror shaving; he laughs to himself as he brushes his hair; cuts to the page of instruction book; cuts to Emmet walking out of his apartment naked until he realizes; he turns back into his apartment; cut to his bedroom quickly trying on different outfits; he finally wears his construction uniform; cuts to kitchen, where Emmet is making breakfast; Emmet rips and eats the instructions off-screen; cut to him sitting in his living room eating his breakfast alone, he turns to his plant; he turns on the television; cuts to the front TV showing President Business giving a presentation]
President Business
Hi, I'm President Business, president of the Octan Corporation and the World. Let's all take extra care to follow the instructions... ...or you'll be put to sleep. And DON'T forget Taco Tuesday's comin next week! That's the day every rule-following citizen gets a free taco and my love! Have a great day, everybody!
[whispers into microphone; shouting; mariachi band shows up and confetti falls down as they celebrating and dancing; cut to Emmet]
Emmet
You have a great day, too, President Business. Man, he's such a cool guy. I always wanna hear more of... wait! Did he say put to sleep?!

Questioning the Identity of The Man Upstairs
Vitruvius
There must be something around here that proves his potential. If The Man Upstairs chose him to the Special, there must be a reason.
[as they float around Emmet's empty mind]
Emmet
Who's The Man Upstairs?
Wyldstyle
See? He doesn't even know about The Man Upstairs.
Emmet
Does he have super gross hands that look like they're made out of big pink sausages, like eagle talons mixed with squid?
[suddenly, they turn to see Emmet being raised up on a large human-like hand]
Wyldstyle
Wait. You've seen the...?
[Emmet turns and notices he's standing on a large hand]
Emmet
Wow! That's what I was just thinking about!
Wyldstyle
How did you...?
Emmet
I had this weird dream when I touched the Piece. Well, I... I mean I wasn't asleep, so it wasn't really dream...
Vitruvius
Emmet, you had a vision.
Emmet
I did?
Vitruvius
Master Builders spend years training themselves to clear their minds enough to have even a fleeting glimpse of The Man Upstairs. And yet, your mind is already so prodigiously empty that there is nothing in it to clear away in the first place. With proper training you could become a great Master Builder.
Emmet
I could?
Vitruvius
The prophecy chose you, Emmet.
Emmet
But I can't do any of the stuff that the prophecy says I'm supposed to do.
Vitruvius
All you have to do is to believe, then you will see everything. Are you ready, my son?
Emmet
Yes, I am. I think.
Vitruvius
Then, we haven't a moment to lose. We must assemble the Master Builders.

Misunderstanding Locations in a Fantasy Adventure
Emmet
Uh, is this Cloud Cuckoo Land? I don't see any clouds or cuckoos.
Vitruvius
No, no. This is Middle Zealand. A wondrous land full of knights, castles, muttons, torture weapons, poverty, leeches, illiteracy, and um...
Emmet
DRAGON!
[the Batwing dives as a dragon swoops down]
Vitruvius
Yeah, that too. Once we arrive in Cloud Cuckoo Land, we'll raise an army of Master Builders...
[Batman transforms the Batwing into the Batmobile, lands the car into a forest area and drives through the woods]
Batman
Yeah, yeah, anyway. You guys gotta check out these new subwoofers I installed in the back, I call them The Dogs. Listen to them bark!
[Batman turns on his stereo, sending heavy metal blasting through the Batmobile, making Emmet and Vitruvius bounce in the back]
Emmet
Aaah! Can you turn that down a little bit?!
Batman
This is a song I wrote for Wyldstyle! Darkness! It's about how I'm an orphan! No parents!
[Wyldstyle smiles at Batman before singing with the song, we hear Batman's voice as he sings to the heavy metal music; to Emmet and Vitruvius; the song continues]
Wyldstyle
This is real music, Emmet. Batman's a true artist. Dark, brooding.
[Wyldstyle turns to Emmet]
Emmet
Well, I'm dark and brooding too! Look, a rainbow!
[Emmet gasps, suddenly he notices something ahead; as they reach the rainbow]
Vitruvius
So, you're gonna drive up the curved part, take it all the way to the top and park the car. Friends, welcome to Cloud Cuckoo Land. Now, I just need to give the secret knock.
[the Batmoblie stops, Batman drives up the rainbow and stops the car at the very top; an angelic chord plays as the camera pans down to the group standing in front of a rather large cloud, the rainbow disappears, and they are surrounded by clouds; he turns and knocks once with his scepter on the cloud door, after a short pause the door bursts open and as they enter inside they hear music being played and everyone is happy and dancing around.]
Emmet
I'm not sure about this place and what I am supposed to do.

Here in Cloud Cuckoo Land, there are no rules! There's no government, no babysitters, no bedtimes, no frowny faces, no bushy mustaches, and no negativity of any kind.
Wyldstyle
You just said the word, "no", like a million times.
Unikitty
And there's also no consistency.
Batman
I hate this place.
Unikitty

Vitruvius
Ah, we gotta write all that down cause I'm not gonna remember any of it, but here we go. The Special will now give an eloquent speech. Go ahead man, you got this.
[to Emmet]
Emmet
Okay. Hello, I'm Emmet. Oh, and this is the Piece of Resistance. Thank you. Well, eeeeehhhh. I know that I for one am very excited to work with you guys, to get into the Octan Tower, find the Kragle and put this thing on the thing, and I know it's going to be really hard, but...
[Emmet walks up to the platform and waves to everyone. He clears his throat; referring to the Piece of Resistance; the Master Builders cheer. Wyldstyle watches in bewilderment; gets interrupted]
Metalbeard
REALLY HARD?! Wiping ye bum with a hook for a hand is really hard, this be impossible! The last time we tried to storm Lord Business's office, we used every plan we could conceive. The result was a massacre too terrible to speak of.
[the audience gasps]
Emmet
Who are you?
Metalbeard
The name be Metalbeard, and I'll tell you me tale of woe.
Vitruvius
Oh, great. Here we go again.
[Metalbeard recounts his failed attempt in trying to infiltrate Lord Business's office]
Metalbeard
I arrived at the foot of the tower with me hearty Master Builder crew, only to find the Kragle was all the way up on the infinitieth floor guarded by a robot army. And security measures of every kind imaginable, lasers, sharks, laser sharks, overbearing assistants, and strange dangerous relics that entrap, snap, and zap. And there be a mysterious room called "The Think Tank". I barely made it out of that room with just me head... and organs!
[Metalbeard hops out of the tower with his head and escapes on his ship as it purrs away; Metalbeard's organs pop out of the Octan tower and land in his ship and it purrs away again]
Emmet
Okay.
[disturbed]
Metalbeard
I had to replace every part of my once strapping virile pirate body with this useless hunk of garbage ye see before ye. So if ye think it'd be a good idea to return to that forsaken place, Special, what idea have ye that be better than the ideas of 100 of our fallen Master Builder brothers?
Emmet
Well, technically I'm not exactly a Master Builder yet.
Metalbeard
WHAT?! WHAT THE HECK?!
[the other Master Builders shout in outrage]
Emmet
Please, everyone, everyone! Please.
William Shakespeare
Rubbish!
[throws a pizza]
Emmet
Yes, it's true, I may not be a Master Builder. I may not have a lot of experience fighting or leading or coming up with plans, or having ideas in general. In fact, I'm not all that smart, and I'm not what you'd call a creative type, plus, generally unskilled, also, scared and cowardly. I know what you're thinking; "He is the least qualified person in the world to lead us!" And, you are right!
[addressing the Master Builders]
Swamp Creature
This is supposed to make us feel better?

Benny
Don't do that.
Unikitty
Sounds weird, don’t it?
Emmet
No, wait guys. Listen. You guys are so talented and imaginative... but you can't work as a team. I'm just a construction worker, but when I have a plan and we were working together, we could build a skyscraper. Now you guys are Master Builders. Just imagine what you could do if you did that! You could save the universe!
Vitruvius
Well said, Emmet. Well said.
Emmet
Really?
Metalbeard
She be a fine speech there, laddie.
Emmet
Okay. Somebody get me some markers... some construction paper... and some GLITTER GLUE! I call this, "Emmet's plan to get inside the tower, put the Piece of Resistance on the Kragle and save the world". I've built a hundred just like them back in the city, if we could just get in there, I know where all the air ducts and wiring are located, I can get us anywhere.
[Emmet stands in front of the instructions he's drawn]
Vitruvius
How will we get inside?
Emmet
In a spaceship!

Benny
SPACESHIP!
[Benny chuckles and rushes off excitedly to build a spaceship]
Batman
Great idea, a Bat spaceship.
Emmet
No, they're expecting us to show up in a Bat spaceship, or a pirate spaceship, or a rainbow sparkled spaceship.
Batman
One of those sounds awesome to me.
Emmet
My idea is to build a spaceship that's exactly like all the other Octan Delivery Spaceships.
Benny
So not the special spaceship that I'm...I'm building for all of you right now?
Emmet
Sorry, Benny. Maybe next time.
Benny
Ooh, you're really letting the oxygen out of my tank here!
[he kicks his spaceship and it falls to pieces again]
Batman
Yeah, but according to your precious instructions, this ship needs a hyperdrive. We don't have that part.
Benny
Maybe we could find one!
Batman
What do yo think, a spaceship's just gonna appear out of the blue? Are you kidding me?! The same thing!
[suddenly, a spaceship appears behind them; Star Wars main theme plays; the Millennium Falcon shows up and stops next to Metalbeard's ship]

No, no, no, no! You can't, the skies are surrounded.

That's okay, I didn't really wanna build a spaceship. Anyway, that's cool.

In a submarine!
Batman
Great idea, a Bat submarine patent pending.

[the robots hand Lord Business an Xacto razor and he walks over to Emmet]
Lord Business
Must be weird. One minute, you're the most special person in the universe. And the next minute… you're nobody! Oh, I have a nice spot for this in my relic room. Uh-oh, my mistake! There it goes!
[uses the razor to cuts the Piece of Resistance from Emmet's back; he accidentally throws the Piece of Resistance through the window, breaking it.]
Wyldstyle
No!
Lord Business
Bye-bye, forever! Well, I guess there's only one thing left to do! ROBOTS! RELEASE THE KRAGLE! START THE COUNTDOWN! and Computer?
[the Piece of Resistance falls into the abyss; he turns to his robots; his presses the button]
Computer
Yes, sir?

Unexpected Chaos in a Critical Situation
Batman
You are so disappointed on so many levels.
[he trails off hoping for any positive comments]
Vitruvius
Why are my pants cold and wet? Uh...
[A shot of water rising in the sub]
Computer
Hull breach!
[a wall is breached and even more water floods in]
Unikitty
The walls are crying!
Wyldstyle
Oh, this thing's falling apart!
Benny
We're falling apart at the seams!
[as he tries to plug a hole; screams; as the submarine starts to fall apart]
Batman
We've got to hold it together! This is not how Batman dies!
[Emmet screams, as the submarine fills with water Emmet starts to drown. Wyldstyle reaches for him]
Wyldstyle
Emmet! Hold on, hold on!
Emmet
Wyldstyle!
Wyldstyle
Deep breath! Deep breath, everybody!!
[gasps; the sub explodes, the camera follows a floating piece of debris to the surface, where Bad Cop and a few Micro Managers are looking around]
Bad Cop
Micro-Managers, what's going on down there?
Micro-Manager
Scanning submarine wreckage. No survivors detected.
Bad Cop
Scuba Cops? Dredge the entire ocean if you have to. We have got to find that piece. Let's get these prisoners back to Lord Business and give him the good news: the Special is no more!
[Scuba Cops dive in the water to begin their search; they all depart from the wreckage]

Superman
All the Master Builders you've captured over the years, you brought them here!
Lord Business
You're a very perceptive person, Superman. They come up with all the instructions for everything in the universe. Robots!
Robot
Beep.
[the robots strap a device to Superman's head]
Superman
No, no! NO! AAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Can't get much worse than this.
[groans; shudders, then his chair shoots up to the top]
Green Lantern
Uh, hello, neighbor.
Superman
Oh, no.
Green Lantern
It's Green Lantern. Oh my gosh, we’re roommates. How crazy is that?
Superman
Does anyone have some kryptonite that they can give me?

A Call to Action in Crisis
Bad Cop
Stop him, stop him! Don't let him get to the water!
[the group takes the submarine towards the water as Bad Cop at his robots are chasing after them; suddenly the submarine goes off the edge of a cloud and plunges down; as they get closer to the water]
Wyldstyle
Dive, dive, dive! Everybody in! We're going under!
[A submarine splashes, the submarine plunges into the water. Bad Cop grunts and throws the chair into the ocean]

Struggling Without Instructions in Uncertainty
Voice
Hey...
Emmet
What is that?
Voice
Come here…
Emmet
What do I do? I don’t have my instructions!
Voice
Touch the Piece…
Emmet
I feel like maybe I should touch that.
Voice
It's so interesting... Touch the Piece... Touch the Piece... It's so interesting... Touch the Piece...
[Emmet gets up and starts walking over to the giant block]
Emmet
Uh...
[becomes completely transfixed and steps over his instruction manual]
Voice
Touch the--
Vitruvius
A Special one with face of yellow... ...will make the Piece of Resistance found from its hiding refuge underground... ...this Master Builder... ...will thwart the Kragle and save the realm...
[Emmet falls, screaming; Emmet is still falling; cat meows]
Wyldstyle
Come on, everyone, protect the Special!?
Vitruvius
...the Special has arisen.
[Emmet then passes out]
Boy
It's your turn to be the hero.
Bad Cop
Wake up.
[as Emmet slowly wakes, he hears Bad Cop's voice]
Emmet
Ugh...
[waked up]
Bad Cop
Come on, wake up! Where are the Master Builders?! How did you find the Piece of Resistance?! Eh?! Where are the others hiding?
Emmet
Good morning, apartment...?
[Emmet hears a voice interrogating him as he opens his eyes; in normal voice]
Bad Cop
Wake up!
[in normal voice; shines a light onto Emmet making him immediately awake]
Emmet
Aah!
Bad Cop
How did you find the Piece of Resistance?!
Emmet
The Piece of what?
Bad Cop
The Piece of Resistance.
[Bad Cop knocks a chair aside in anger. We see Emmet is being held in an interrogation room with his hands shackled to a chair]
Emmet
I-I-I don't-where am I? What's happening?!
Bad Cop
What's happening? Playing dumb, Master Builder.
Emmet
No, I... "Master Builder"?
Bad Cop
Oh, so you've never heard of the prophecy?
Emmet
No, I...
Bad Cop
Or the Special?
Emmet
No! No, I...
Bad Cop
You're a liar! We'll kill ya.
[Bad Cop backflips and starts to kick and wrestle a chair.]
Emmet
Look, um... I watch a lot of cop shows on TV. Isn't there supposed to also be a--? Isn't there supposed to be a Good Cop?!
[Bad Cop chuckles; Emmet ducks as Bad Cop throws the chair to the wall]
Bad Cop
Oh, yes. But we're not done yet.
[switches head]
Good Cop
Hi, buddy! I'm your friendly neighborhood police officer! Would you like a glass of water?
Emmet
Yeah, actually-
Bad Cop
Too bad. Security cameras picked up this. You were found at the construction site convulsing with a strange piece.
[switches back to his face; smacks the glass away; grunts]
Emmet
That's disgusting!
Bad Cop
Then why is it permanently stuck to your back?!
Emmet
Get it off me! It won't come off, it's chasing me! Look, it's not my fault! I have no idea how this thing got on my back!
[peers back with the blue cap, sees that The Piece of Resistance is glued onto his back with a blue cap, and screams in alarm]
Good Cop
Of course, buddy. I believe you.
Emmet
Great!
[suddenly Bad Cop appears beside Emmet, making him scream]
Bad Cop
I "believe" you, too. You see the quotations I'm making with my claw hands? It means I don't believe you. Why else would you show up with that thing on your back just three days before President Business is going to use the Kragle to end the world?
Emmet
President Business is gonna end the world? But he's such a good guy. And Octan, they make good stuff: Music, dairy products, coffee, TV shows, surveillance systems, all history books, voting machines... ...Wait a minute.
[flashback books; flashback ends]
Bad Cop
C'mon, you can't be this stupid.
Emmet
Look, c'mon, that is a misunderstanding, I'm just a regular, normal, ordinary guy, and I'm late to meet my best friends in the whole world, and they're probably missin me right now, they're probably out looking around! "Hey, where's Emmet? Hey, where's my best friend Emmet?" And you know what? Ask all my friends, they'll tell you.
Bad Cop
Oh, we asked them alright. Boom!
[he turns on the TV monitor which shows Emmet's construction work colleagues being interviewed about Emmet]
Frank
That guy's not a criminal mastermind.
Emmet
See!
Jim
Yeah, he's kind of your average, normal, kind of guy.
Emmet
Thank you.
Jim
But you know, he's just... he's just like normal like us. Yeah, he... he's just that special.
Gail
Wait I'm so confused. Who are we talking about?
Gail
Wait, does he work with us?
Emmet
Gail doesn't remember me?
Barry
Look at Randy here, he likes sausage. That's something. Gail is perky, that's something. :Harry: ...well!
Frank
When you say Harry, I go... a-ha ha ha ha ha ha ha When you say the other guy, I go...
[he just looks into the camera showing no emotion, Emmet, now looking really upset, continues to watch his friends being interviewed]
Surfer Dave
I know that guy, but I know like zippy-zap about him.
Emmet
We just talked earlier.
Frank
And I mean, only does he is say yes to everything everybody else is doing.
Larry The Barista
You know, I've got him like over the little bit of a...blank slate, I guess. That'll be forty-two $42 dollars, please.
[he talks to a customer]
Barry
We all have something that makes us something, and Emmet is...nothing.
Emmet
There you go. I told you I wasn't a nobody.

Emmet's Guide to Enjoying Life
Emmet
Step 13: Enjoy popular music.
Radio DJ
Top of the charts again, it's Everything Is Awesome.
[he turns on the radio]
Emmet
Oh, my gosh! I love this song! Always use the turn signal, park between the lines. Yes! Drop off dry cleaning before noon, read the headlines, don't forget to smile.
[Everything Is Awesome starts playing; Emmet and everyone else parks in exactly the same way; waves and smiles to everyone as he walks down the street]
Paper Boy
Paper!
Emmet
Always root for the local sports team.
[a train full of passengers appears]
LEGO® Citizens
Go, SPORTS TEAM!!
Emmet
Always return a compliment. Hey, you look nice!
[to the male Lego citizen stepping out of the coffee shop]
LEGO® Citizens
So do you!
[turn to Emmet]
Emmet
Drink overpriced coffee!
[inside the coffee shop he buys a coffee]
Larry The Barista
Here you go, that's $37.
[Emmet looks at him for a moment before replying with excitement]
Emmet
Awesome!
[Laughing; Emmet walks to work with his overpriced coffee following the line of all the other construction workers doing exactly the same]
Construction Worker
Did you see Where are my Pants? last night?
[everyone laughs and replies at the same time]
Emmet
Classic episode!
[chuckles]
Foreman
Instructions coming in from central. Okay, it says here that anything that's weird then blow it up! All right, Cylinder-Heads, let's make it look exactly like it does in the instructions!
[“Everything Is Awesome" continues to play in the background as the Lego construction workers get into position; the workers start blowing up the buildings]
Construction Worker #1
Hey, buddy! I need one-by-two keyhole!
Emmet
No problem, Michael.
Construction Worker #2
Two-by-two macaroni over here.
Emmet
Two-by-two macaroni flying in! Here's one, Mel.
Construction Worker #3
Guys, got a one-by-one with an indented stud on one side!
Foreman
Cheese, look, cheese slopes, come on, everybody!
Emmet
Roger that, Roger.
Construction Worker #4
Look alive, coming at you.
Construction Worker #5
Can I get a couple LURPs over here?
Emmet
Thanks, Gail.
Construction Worker #6
Guys, watch me drill this down.
Emmet
Man, I feel so good right now! I can sing this song for hours!
French Narrator
5 hours later…
Barry
When you're part of a team! Yeah, I'm gonna the sports bar after work tonight, who wants to eat some delicious chicken wings and get CRAZY?!
[an explosion occurs, and everyone cheers; Gail laughs; as the other constructions workers start to leave together, Emmet is left behind and tries to get their attention]
Emmet
Chicken wings? I love chicken wings!
Construction Worker #6
Hey, who wants to share a croissant with this guy?
Emmet
Croissants? I love croissants!!!
Construction Worker #7
Oh, yeah! I sure do love giant sausages!
Emmet
Giant sausages, no way! You know what I love to do? Is share a meal with the special people in my life. Fred, Barry, Gail, me and you...? Ah, no guys, wait up! Okay, I'll meet you there! Oh, where did it go? Oh, there you are. I think I heard a whoosh.
[nobody pays Emmet any attention as he tries to join them; Emmet runs into a construction post and falls. A gust of wind blows his instructions away; Emmet chases after his instruction manual as the wind continues to carry it off; he finds the manual lying on some Lego rubble; Emmet laughs, relieved, as he retrieves the manual and turns to leave but stops when he hears a whoosh]

Doubt and Encouragement Among Friends
Benny
Emmet, you'll... you'll think of something, right? Like you always do.
Emmet
Didn't you hear him? The prophecy's made up. I'm not the Special. To think for a moment I thought I might be.
Vitruvius
Emmet.
[suddenly, Emmet hears Vitruvius's ghostly voice]
Emmet
Who said that?
Vitruvius
I did. I am ghost Vitruvius. Ooooh! Emmet, you didn't let me finish earlier because I died. The reason I made up the prophecy was because I knew that whoever found the Piece could become the Special. Because the only thing anyone needs to be special is to believe that you can be. I know that sounds like a cat poster, but it's true. Look at what you did when you believed you were special. You just need to believe it some more.
[Vitruvius's ghostly form appears behind Emmet; he glides over to face Emmet]
Emmet
But how can I just decide to believe that I'm special, when I'm not?
Vitruvius
Because the world depends on it. Ooooh!
[the ghostly form of Vitruvius starts to glide away]
Computer
Zapping termination in thirty-five Mississippi...
Emmet
WHAT?!
Computer
Thirty-four Mississippi, thirty-three Mississippi, thirty-two Mississippi, thirty-one Mississippi, thirty Mississippi, twenty-nine Mississippi, twenty-eight Mississippi, twenty-seven Mississippi, twenty-six Mississippi, twenty-five Mississippi...
[as the countdown continues, Emmet gets an idea, manages to dislodge the battery from its holding place and rolls himself with the battery toward the window]
Wyldstyle
Emmet! What are you...?
[Emmet rolls himself towards the edge of the broken window and looks down into the abyss]
Emmet
Whoa! Lucy!
[he looks back at Wyldstyle]
Wyldstyle
Wait! What are you...? What are you...?
Emmet
Now it's your turn to be the hero.
[Wyldstyle realizing what he is planning to do]
Computer
Thirteen, Mississippi.
Wyldstyle
No!
Computer
Twelve Mississippi, Eleven Mississippi...
Emmet
See you later, alligator.
Computer
Ten Mississippi...
Wyldstyle
Don't!
[Emmet jumps out the broken window]
Computer
Nine Mississippi, eight Mississippi...
Wyldstyle
No, Emmet!
[gasps; as the computer countdown continues, Emmet starts falling into the abyss]
Computer
Seven Mississippi, six Mississippi...
Emmet
Aaah!
Computer
Five Mississippi, four Mississippi, three Mississippi, two Mississippi... One Mississippi, zero, Missi- Error. Termination failure.
[as Emmet gets nearer to the abyss, the battery he's strapped to snaps off the wires; as the detonation sequence deactivates, the Master Builders are freed from their captivity]
Wyldstyle
Emmet! NOOOOO!!!
[she rushes over to the edge of the window, and look down into the abyss.; the other Master Builders gather round]
Gandalf
He... he saved us.
Unikitty
Well, what do we do now? There's gotta be a bright side here somewhere?
Superman
Does anyone have any ideas?
Benny
Emmet had ideas.
Metal Beard
Arr, if only there were more people in the world like he?
[suddenly, Wyldstyle has an idea and looks round to the screen showing the citizen of Bricksburg as they are getting glued]

The Power of the Special Unleashed
Lord Business
You see your friends? Oh, they're finished! And my world is almost finished. And the last thing I need to do is finish you.
[the micro-managers capture Emmet's friends; he walks over to Emmet and points the glue at him]
Emmet
No, stop! Please! If you do one thing and I'm gonna unleash my secret weapon!
Lord Business
Your secret weapon?
Emmet
Yes. It's called "the power of the Special.
Lord Business
That sounds dumb.
Emmet
Alright. Here it comes. My secret weapon...is this.
[he holds up his hand]
Lord Business
What is that? Is it super small? I don't see anything.
Emmet
It's my hand. I want you to take it.
Lord Business
You want me to take your hand off?
Emmet
No. I want you to join me. Look at all of these things that people built. You might see a mess...
[he points to the TV monitors showing the Lego citizens in their various fighting machines]
Lord Business
Exactly! And a bunch of weird dorky stuff that ruined my perfectly good stuff!
Emmet
Okay. What I see are people inspired by each other, and by you. People taking what you made and making something new out of it.
[this serves as a parallel to the real world where Finn's father looks at the Lego pieces Finn has assembled together]
The Man Upstairs
Finn, did you make all of this?
[Finn nods]
Finn
The people are trying to stop President Business from using the Kragle.
The Man Upstairs
W-What's the Kragle?
Finn
Um... it's in there.
[he points to the big black box which is President Business's aircraft]
The Man Upstairs
In here? So President Business is the bad guy? If... If the construction guy... said something to President Business... what would he say?
[Finn's father opens the top of the aircraft and takes out President Business, he then looks around the room where he's put up "Do Not Touch" signs all over the Lego pieces he'd built; Finn doesn't reply and looks down; back in the Lego world Emmet delivers his speech to President Business]
Emmet
You… don't have to be… the bad guy. You are the most talented, most interesting, and extraordinary person in the universe. And you are capable of amazing things, because you are the Special. And so am I. And so is everyone. The prophecy is made up, but it's also true. It's about all of us. Right now, it's about you. And you, still, can change everything.
[Lord Business looks shocked and lowers the Kragle; he holds up the Piece of Resistance. Business, touched by Emmet's speech drops the Kragle and starts walking over to him. Cut to the real world where Finn's father approaches his son, kneels down and hugs Finn, at the same time in Lego world, we see Lord Business is hugging Emmet.]
Emmet
Oh, we got a hugger. Be careful, I have been told... it might explode.
[Emmet hands the Piece of Resistance to Lord Business]
Lord Business
Emmet, thank you. And I just want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, from this moment forward, I solemnly promise that I will never--
[strains, exhales deeply]
Benny
EMMET!
Metalbeard
Emmet, arr!
Emmet
Hey, everyone! Is everyone okay? Where's Lucy?
[Chuckling; Unikitty giggles and laughs, as the micro-managers fall down; Wyldstyle comes up from under a micro-manager]
Wyldstyle
Emmet!
Emmet
Lucy!
[Emmet rushes over to her and Wyldstyle jumps into his arms]
Wyldstyle
We did it! Oh, eeehhh. Emmet, wait. Batman, there's something I need to say to you!
[Unikitty laughs; Batman clears throat. Just as Emmet and Wyldstyle are about to hold hands Batman interrupts them; Emmet gasps]
Batman
No, Wyldstyle. I mean, Lucy! He's the hero you deserve!
[he points to Emmet]
Wyldstyle
Thanks, Batman!
[Wyldstyle smiles and Emmet looks behind him to see who Batman was pointing at]
Ghost Vitruvius
I liked Emmet before he was cool.
[breaking the fourth wall; we see Business is pouring an antidote to unstick everybody]
President Business
Whoops! I have the antidote for the Kragle! How did that happen?
Finn
De-kragler!
The Man Upstairs
Watch this. YEAH!
[as Finn's father pours glue remover onto Pa and Ma Cop Finn reunites Bad Cop with his parents]
Finn
Oh, Mommy, Daddy, you're okay!
Ma Cop
Oh, son!
[chuckles; Bad Cop, who's now using his drawn-on Good Cop face, hugs his parents.]
Good Cop
Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad.
Pa Cop
We're okay, son.
[chuckles; Pa Cop chuckles. In the real world, Finn and his father are playing with the Lego pieces]
Mom
Hey, guys? Time to come up for dinner! It’s Taco Tuesday, your favorite!
[calls out]
The Man Upstairs
Okay, honey, we'll, be up in a sec.
Finn
Oh, yeah, we'll be up in a sec!
The Man Upstairs
I got to tell you something.
Finn
What?
The Man Upstairs
Now that I'm letting you come down here and play, guess who else gets to come down here and play?
Finn
Who?
The Man Upstairs

[[The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part|Your sister.]

[surprised]
Emmet
Well, things sure have a way of working out smoothly, am I right, guys? Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat...?!
[suddenly an alien spaceship hovers above them]
Duplo
We are from the planet Duplo, and we're here to destroy you.
[Baby voice]
Emmet
Oh, man.

Embracing Creativity and Individuality for Freedom
Wyldstyle
Hey, everybody. You don't know me, but I'm on TV, so you can trust me. I know things seem kind of bad right now, but there is a way out of this. This is Emmet. And he was just like all of you. A face in the crowd, following the same instructions as you. He was so good at fitting in, no one ever saw him. And I owe you an apology, because I used to look down on people like that. Wyldstyle's broadcast is watched by all Lego citizens across the realms in the universe, including Middle Zealand where a knight is reading out form a scroll]
[footage of Emmet is shown]
Knight
I used to think they were followers with no ideas or brains.
Wyldstyle
Because it turns out Emmet had great ideas. And if they seemed weird, and kind of pointless, they actually came closer than anyone else to saving the universe. And now we have to finish what he started by making whatever weird thing pops into our heads. All of you have the ability inside of you to be a ground breaker. And I mean literally, break the ground! Peel off the pieces, and tear apart your walls! Build things only you could build, defend yourselves! We need to fight back against President Business's plans to freeze us! Today will not be known as Taco Tuesday, it will be known as Freedom Friday! But still on a Tuesday!
[the Lego citizens start putting Lego pieces together and building things; the citizens start cheering; suddenly, they are interrupted as the robots appear in the studio]
Robot
End of the line!
[just as the robots are about to attack, they are quickly killed off by Bad Cop]
Wylstyle
Bad Cop?
Bad Cop
I hope there's still a Good Cop in me somewhere.
[draws a new face for Good Cop with a dark-gray marker]
Scribble Cop (Good Cop)
I'll hold these guys off. You go stop em. Yay!
Metalbeard
Great idea! But how will we get there?
[suddenly, Benny starts having an idea]
Voice Man
T-minus 10, 9, 8...
Benny
I could, eeehhh...
Voice Man
...7, 6, 5, 4...
Benny
I could build a...
Voice Man
...3, 2...
Benny
I could build a...
Voice Man
...1!
Benny
I could build a spaceship! You-you're not-you're not going to say "No"?
[he looks around to see if anyone disagrees]
Scribble Cop
Build away, whatever your name is!
Benny
SPACESHIP! SPACESHIP! SPACESHIP! SPACESHIP! SPACESHIP! SPACESHIP!
[laughs and jumps around in excitement as he quickly assembles a spaceship; Benny and the team fly the spaceship through the different realms; the team are spotted by the robots]
Robot
All units, attack that spaceship!
[the robots chase after the spaceship in their aircraft and start shooting at it]
Benny
SPACESHIP!
[quickly steers the spaceship away from sight]
Robot
Where did he go?!
[suddenly, the spaceship flies up through the robots' aircraft destroying them]
Benny
SPACESHIP!
Unikitty
Wyldstyle, look! It's the citizens!
[as they fly over Bricksburg; the citizens have built aircraft which they are using to attack Lord Business's robots]
Abraham Lincoln
And don't forget us, we're Master Builders.
Lord Business
What is going on?! You stop building that stuff! Just stop it!

Emmet Questions Batman's Character and Intentions
Emmet
Batman is the worst person I've ever met.
Batman
Need a hyperdrive?
[suddenly, Batman appears behind them with the Millennium Falcon's hyperdrive]
Emmet
No way!
Wyldstyle
Babe!
Emmet
I knew it! I knew that!
Wyldstyle
You really had me there!
[Chuckling]
Batman
Those guys were so lame, all they did was play space checkers, plus it turns out that hairy one's a dude, and the metal one too, all dudes.
Benny
But won't they notice their hyperdrive is missing?
Han Solo
Come on, Chewie, hit the hyperdrive!
[cut to the Millennium Falcon]
Batman
Nah, they'll be fine.
Emmet
Step 1: Alright, we need a blue two-piece unit over at the... Unikitty, you're supposed to follow the instructions, remember?
[Emmet notices Unikitty putting flowers into the spaceship]
Unikitty
Sorry.
Wyldstyle
Ugh, this gives me the jeebies.
[picking up a piece of Lego as they follow the instructions]
Batman
What do I even...? I-I can't...!
[kicks Lego pieces in frustration]
Emmet
Nice. Step 2, we pilot the ship to the service entrance so we can get past the dangerous, but also kind of cool, laser gate.
Robot
Space ID.
[in their spaceship they get to the Octan service gate, Batman and Benny are in the driver's seat]
Batman
I have a drive-on.
Robot
Who are you here to see?
Batman
I am here to see... your butt.
Robot
Is that last name "butt", first name "your", or is it- OH, MY GOSH!
[Batman throws a Batarang at the Robot, decapitating him]
Batman
Pow! Wham! Kezap! First try!
[Batman laughs then throws another Batarang at the gate button but fails to hit it; throws another which still doesn't hit it; throws another and misses again; he then repeatedly throws several Batarangs until it finally hits the button making it go green; after they enter into Octan Tower]
Emmet
Step 3, we break into Lord Business's office, and we'll plunder his collection of relics for disguises. Step 4, Benny and Metalbeard will sneak their way into the Master Control Room.
[they break into Lord Business's office and use his relics to disguise themselves; as Metalbeard and Benny break into the control room]
Computer
Motion Sensors Triggered in Sector-12.
Robot
10-4!
Benny
Uh-oh!
[two security guard robots go to investigate, Metalbeard and Benny quickly hide as not to be detected, Metalbeard transforms into a photocopying machine.]
Robot
Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Do it!
[the other robot jumps onto the photocopying machine; the robot starts photocopying his butt, both robots laugh and suddenly Metalbeard transforms back and destroys the two robots]
Benny
Metalbeard, that was awesome!
Metalbeard
First law of the sea, never place your rear end on a pirate's face.
Emmet
Once inside they'll use their technical know-how to disable the kragle shield.
[Metalbeard and Benny get inside the control room to disable the computer]
Computer
I'm the computer.
Benny
Cool, talking computer! Please disable the shield systems.
[Benny starts tapping into the computer]
Computer
Of course. There are no movies in your area with that title.

Step 5: Vitruvius will provide lookout to make sure we're not being followed.
[Vitruvius looks through the binoculars, but as he's blind, he's unaware that he's standing in front of a wall]
Vitruvius
Okay.
Emmet
Step 6: Batman and Unikitty go into the Board Room to make one last change to Lord Business's plan.
[inside the Board Room Lord Business is holding a meeting]
Lord Business
I move that we freeze the universe. Can I get a second on that?
[suddenly, Bruce Wayne enters the room]
Bruce Wayne
I second. Bruce Wayne, CEO of Wayne Enterprises.
[cut to the group as they are going through their plan]
Batman
Bruce Wayne?!? Who's that? Sounds like a cool guy.
[chuckles; the others, all clearly aware who Bruce Wayne is, stare at him in silence, Wyldstyle sighs. Bruce Wayne and a disguised Unikitty enter Lord Business's Board Room]
Bruce Wayne
We'd like to invest in your company, your weapon to control the universe sounds super sweet, I must say.
Lord Business
It is indeed super sweet.
Bruce Wayne
Cool! What kind of sound system does it have?
Lord Business
Uh, sound system? Well, I mean, we have an iPod shuffle.
Bruce Wayne
Wait a second. You're telling me that you have a machine to control the universe and you can't listen to tunes and surround sound?
Unikitty
Embarrassing.
Lord Business
Well, I mean, we need to get that done. I want eight-foot speakers.
Bruce Wayne
Great call.
Lord Business
Yeah, I want speakers that you can hug with your arms and your legs, and just feel the beat.
Robot
Listen up! We need new instructions for a speaker system for the TAKOS!
Gandalf
We'll never help-! Whatever you say, boss!
[suddenly, the device attached to their heads initiates and they all start coming up with the instructions]
Emmet
Then once the instructions are printed, Wyldstyle and I will enter the Kragle room, place the thing on the other thing, and save the universe. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, I didn't draw that. Is that me exploding?
[cut to the group having their planning meeting; points to a drawing of himself, as he saves the universe]
Vitruvius
Uh, I didn't mention that earlier, when you reunite the Piece with the Kragle, it might explode?
Emmet
No! But it might not, right?
Vitruvius
Sure, sure, sure. Just go with that.

Emmet's Uncertainty in a Tumultuous Moment
Wylstyle
If only Emmet were here to see this. He'd day something adorable, like...
[smash cuts to Emmet as he continues to fall through the abyss]
Emmet
Aaaah! Am I just gonna keep... falling... forever?!
[finally, Emmet lands somewhere and it cuts to blackness; the thud noises as he lands hardly.]
Emmet
Is this another vision? Where am I? Is that the office tower? Bricksburg! What was that?! No, no, no, no!
[he sees the sign for Octan Tower; we see Emmet has fallen on the ground in a live-action basement where all the different Lego realms, including Bricksburg, have been assembled on a large table; BOOM! He suddenly feels the ground shaking as if someone has taken a giant footstep; cuts to a human’s legs running around the basement heading towards Emmet; a human accidentally steps on Emmet as it carries on running. A human is playing with the Lego set and actually carrying the spaceship Benny had built as if it's flying.]
Finn
Spaceship! Spaceship!
Emmet
What in the world is that? It's... adorable. Uh-oh! No! No! No, no, no, no! Hey, don't eat me! Don't eat me! Do not eat me! Please!
[he continues to watch a human (which reveals to be a boy named Finn) playing with the Lego spaceship; suddenly, Finn notices Emmet lying on the floor; Finn comes over to pick Emmet up; Finn gently picks Emmet up and looks at him]
Finn
Hi, Emmet.
Emmet
Uh... hi? Is this The Man...? The Man Upstairs. :
[Finn stares at him; suddenly, the basement door opens and the shadow of a man appears at the top of the stairs and he starts walking down the stairs; when the man reaches the last step, the shadow reveals it's Finn's father wearing a business suit and looking annoyed, which is look-alike of Lord Business.]
The Man Upstairs
What happened?! No, no, no. This is a disaster. Why...why is...? What? What?! What?! The-the...why is the dragon on top of the luxury condo development?!
[as he sees all the different Lego pieces all over the place]
Finn
I was just playing and...
The Man Upstairs
Look, I know it's hard to understand. But this is Dad's stuff, okay? All of this that you see before you is all your father's. And everything is thought out, there's... What did you down here?? Did you take the top off of the tower?!?
[he looks around and sees the top of Octan Tower missing]
Finn
It was an accident.
The Man Upstairs
You end up accidentally, expertly, dangerously, and carefully took the entire top off of that tower?
Finn
Yes.
The Man Upstairs
You know the rules, this isn't a toy!
Finn
Um...it kind of is.
The Man Upstairs
No, actually it's a highly sophisticated inter-locking brick system.
Finn
But we bought it at the toy store.
The Man Upstairs
We did, but they way I'm using it makes it an adult thing.
Finn
The box for this one said "Ages 8 to 14"!
The Man Upstairs
That's a suggestion. They have to put that on there.
Finn
Because maybe we won't be able to resist playing with all this.
The Man Upstairs
Look, I move your stuff over near to the decorations. All those bricks, you can build anything you want. Finn, we're gonna play a little game. It's called "let's put everything back the way you found it.
[Emmet sees the larger Lego pieces piled together in a box, he notices Finn looking sad]
Finn
But, Dad, you don't understand…
The Man Upstairs
So I can make things they way they're supposed to be. Permanently.
[he turns goes over to the nearby table and picks up a tube of Krazy Glue]
Emmet
More Kragles?!
[back in the Lego world, Lord Business tries to stop the citizens from fighting back]
Lord Business
This rebellion ends right now!
[he releases a bunch of micro-managers onto the city and they start attacking, then we see Finn's father is actually the micro-manger as using the Krazy Glue to stick a flying Lego truck the onto the Lego board]
Bricksburg Citizen
Oh, no!
[then we see a Lego fireman who's build a machine out of his fire truck to fight off the micro-managers]
Fireman
Ha-ha! Fire in the hole! Wait! What's happening? No, wait! No, we're going down! No!
[Finn's father goes to pick up the fireman's truck; Finn's father destroys the assembled fire truck Lego piece; we see one of Emmet's neighbors, Sharon, who's build a sled with her cats tied to the front as they rush away from the micro-managers]
Cat
Meow. Meow.
Sharon
Hold on, dear, we're coming for you. Ah!
[the micro-manager gets her which is Finn's father gluing Sharon to the Lego board.]
Emmet
Stop!
Sharon
Oh no!
[Emmet watches in horror as Finn's father continues to glue the Lego pieces]
Metal Beard
Arr, there be too many micro-managers!
The Man Upstairs
What am I holding here?
Finn
It's a battleship.
The Man Upstairs
No, it's a hodge-podge that's what it is. What's Batman doing on it? What is this? A robot pirate?
[he throws Batman off the spaceship then picks up Metal Beard; he throws Metal Beard down and he lands next to Batman]
Batman
Dang it.
[Emmet watches all this in horror as Finn holds him]
Emmet
Stop! Stop it! No! Stop it! Stop!
[Finn's father notices Emmet in Finn's hand]
The Man Upstairs
You got glue all over that construction worker. Here, give that to me.
[he takes Emmet from Finn]
Emmet
Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! All of those are my friends! No! Stop it!
[he looks down and sees all his friends scattered all over the Lego board]
Metal Beard
We were a hearty crew, but it be… it be over.
Emmet
No! The Piece of Resistance! I can still save them.
[Finn's father turns Emmet around in his hand and Emmet notices the Piece of Resistance on the floor]
The Man Upstairs
Let's get this gunk off this construction worker.
[he places Emmet on his work table]
Finn
He's not just a construction worker, Dad. He's the hero.
The Man Upstairs
No, he's not. He is a ordinary, regular, generic construction worker, and I need to put him back the way he was. Now, where is my Xacto knife?
[as Emmet lies on the table]
Emmet
I gotta get the Piece of Resistance. If I could get the attention of the smaller creature. I gotta move.
[Finn's father continues to look for his knife]
The Man Upstairs
Where is that? Alright.
[using all his strength Emmet manages to slightly move on the table catching Finn's father's eye, but he quickly dismisses and looks away; Emmet starts to twitch more on the table and every time he moves, Finn's father turns to look at him not sure of what he's seen. And as he turns back to look for his knife, Emmet tries to move again]
Emmet
M-m-move! Ow!
[he finally manages to move enough to drop himself off the table; this catches Finn's attention]
Finn
Uh, Dad?
The Man Upstairs
Yeah?
Finn
I think I saw the Xacto over there in Middle Zealand.
The Man Upstairs
Oh, great. Thank you.
Finn
You're welcome. It's up to you now, Emmet.
[as he goes to get the knife, Finn quickly goes over and picks Emmet from the floor and hands him the Piece of Resistance; he then turns and looks at a cat poster with the phrase "Believe" written on it which Emmet also notices, he then remembers what Vitruvius had told him. And then, suddenly, the cat's mouth on the poster starts moving as Vitruvius speaks]
Vitruvius
Believe. I know that sounds like a cat poster, but it's true.
[Finn uses a magic Lego portal that he's built to send Emmet down, where he can start moving again, and crashes back in Bricksburg.]
