If it is not too much trouble, would someone please pass me the milk?
[Gruffi rolls eyes]
[Milk pitcher floats above table, amazing all the Gummis, except Gruffi who cannot reach the floating pitcher]
Sorry about that. M-milk pmout dmown!
[Milk pours on Gruffi instead of in his glass. Cubbi and Sunni giggle while Tummi looks in surprise. Gruffi is obviously annoyed]
I make a simple request, and you have to put on a magic show!
Gruffi is right, Zummi. Lately you use a spell to do everything.
But magic lets me do my part around here. Why, since the medallion opened the Great Book, magic has become my life!
Then it is a pretty sad life.
Well, it is true. You could not do serious magic if your life depended on it. Face it, compared to the ancient Gummis, you are a rank amateur.
[enraged] Amateur, am I? Well, I will show you!
[talking to himself] Let us see what Gruffi thinks after I brush up on this.
[Zummi's turns to the restricted chapter; a glowing red section with ribbon and seal]
GBGreat Book
For use by advanced magicians only.
[Zummi takes knife and cuts ribbon. A small tornado appears, then disappears. Bell dings as the resticted chapter turns from a red light to a glowing green light]
GBGreat Book
Welcome, o Gummi master of the magicial arts.
[Zummi stands proudly as camera pans down from Gummi Glen, into the bedrock and then magma, finally a creepy subterranean chamber occupied by Zorlok, wearing a costume that makes his head look like a rooster's. He is only seen in silouette]
ZZorlok
[offscreen] At last, after all these years, the signal! Now, I need someone to fetch it for me. Rat enters Zorlok's residence You will do nicely! Zorlok emits beam from hand, which turns rat into a green horned monster and grow larger and larger until it is capable of being bipedal Go, my pet. Go and fetch me the Great Book of Gummi!
[While other Gummis are getting ready for bedtime, Gruffi is walking by Zummi's study. A momentary sight causes him to look twice]
[talking to himself] Holy bear claws!
[Astonished Gruffi enters room to see Zummi juggling a dozen objects in the air in the manner of an orchestra conductor]
Hello Gruffi. I have been working all day on a new batch of advanced magic spells. What do you think?
[Zummi breaks spell; causing objects to drop. Gruffi catches a marble bust]
Better work on your landings. Something could go wrong, very wrong.
Nonsense! It says right here in the Great Book that no Gummi magic can ever harm a Gummi Bear. Watch this one! Rummap fromound domone Gruffi!
[Gruffi is walking then gets knocked over by an invisible force which gains visibility only when Gruffi touches force]
All right Zummi, what did you do?
I trapped you in jail with a locking spell!
Yes, an invisible prison, but for only one man. [Zummi enters prison dome] You cannot get out, but I can.
[Gruffi tackles Zummi in order to breach prison. The walls open for Zummi but trap Gruffi. Zummi dances around prison dome while Gruffi places hand against walls]
You see, I am not an amateur! I know powerful spells like the Great Gummis.
[sarcastic] Fine, way to go pro! Whoopdy doo, you are a skilled magician.
[serious] Now, would you mind getting me out of this thing?
Oh, right, sorry! Fromee dumone Gruffi!
[Prison disappears, as does what Gruffi is leaning on]
[chuckling] Good night, Gruffi!
[Gruffi exits study]
[muttering about Zummi] Darn fool, causing more trouble than he's worth. All a guy wants is some peace and quiet when...
[Loud crash is heard and destruction of study]
[Loud noises alert all of Gummi Glen. Except for Gruffi, all Gummis are wearing bedclothes. They all enter study looking shocked]
And so is the Great Book!
[Gruffi, Grammi and Zummi approach Zorlok's subterranean prison, which is surrounded by a moat of lava. They are surprised to see a giant statue of a Gummi soldier so deep beneath the Earth]
[Zummi studies base of statue]
It is an ancient Gummi warning.
All Gummi bears are forbidden to cross this bridge.
[Gruffi and Grammi shudder in fear]
The ancients wrapped a tizard here, uh, I mean trapped a wizard here.
What did he do to deserve that?
Some very horrible things to oppress people. He also tried to steal the Great Book.
He is not going anywhere, Zummi. Without your Gummi medallion the Book is worthless to him.
Amateur or not, I lost the Book, so it is my responsibility to get it back.
[Zummi crosses bridge]
Zummi, no! It is too dangerous!
[Monster emerges from passageway and abducts Zummi]
[Gruffi and Grammi start to cross bridge but monster stomps its feet, causing the bridge to collapse into the lava]
Do not worry, Zummi. We will save you!
I know what you are up to. You want to conquer the world!
ZZorlok
Oh yes, eventually. I would have done it a lot sooner too, except for those meddling Gummi wizards! First, I am going to get even with them. After that, the entire world will submit to my rule!
Well, the Gummis stopped you once. By golly, we will do it again.
ZZorlok
Sure, sure, hand over that medallion.
ZZorlok
Take it from him!
[Monster attempts to confiscate Zummi's medallion but it has a defense mechanism, sending an electrical shock to both Zorlok and his monster]
ZZorlok
If I cannot take the Gummi Medallion by force, you must give it to me.
You will wait a long time for that!
ZZorlok
I have waited hundreds of years! That is long enough!
[Gruffi's bedroom. Alarm clock rings. Gruffi rises from bed then begins his disciplined regimen in the comfortable surroundings of Gummi Glen]
[exercising] One, two. One, two.
[brushing teeth] One, two, three, four, five, six.
Gruffi straightens an askew picture embroidered with the Gummi seal and a statement
EEmbroidery
Live Each Day the Gummi Way.
That is the key to an orderly life.
[Gruffi enters kitchen, but sees a state of disarray with the others. Sunni is playing the flute while Cubbi is banging a cork into a teakettle]
I have waited a half hour for my toast.
Now, where did I put that miserable pan?
Sunni, leave Grammi alone so she can make breakfast. You all think I am getting fat, like Tummi. Well I am not, these are love handles.
[talking to himself] Bear's fur! This looks like a job for an organized mind.
[Gruffi confiscates flute from Sunni]
[Gruffi confiscates teakettle from Cubbi, sitting Cubbi in a chair and placing teakettle atop stove]
Cubbi, steam is dangerous.
[Gruffi takes a plate of toast off table and hands it to Zummi]
Here Zummi, eat. Is that the pan you want, Grammi?
[Gruffi points out pan in sink]
Uh, why, yes. Thank you for sorting it out.
It was simple. I am an orderly person. By the way, anyone seen where Tummi has gone with my tools?
I do not know. Lately he has been sneaking off somewhere.
[No one notices teakettle is boiling and steam is building up]
Well, I am going to find him. I do not want my tools to come to any..
[Teakettle boils and the steam causes the cork to fly off, hitting Gruffi in the rear]
I have studied this carefully, and a bridge is the only way to get off this gumforsaken rock.
That will not work. You see, when the beach collapsed a dozen years ago, I tried building a bridge myself. Gruffi, it no reach.
No offense pal, but after seeing your scaffolding, I can understand why. Let me tear it down and build you a great bridge.
Whoa, whoa! Hold it, I need that bamboo to finish my masterpiece.
Gusto, what is more important? Finishing your dragon or getting off the island?
I know the answer to this question, let me think.
[Gruffi gives annoyed look]
Look, back home whenever there is an emergency, I always solve the problem. Is that not right, Tummi?
Gruffamundo, we are trapped, but we are safe. There is no emergency.
This island is falling apart! Why cannot you see that?!
It's my hat, isn't it? You don't like it.
[Gruffi departs in frustration]
[Gusto is carving a dragon statue out of a volcano side, similar to Mount Rushmore]
Is Gruffi always this pushy?
Gruffi takes his bossiness really seriously. But he is a great guy once you get you get to know him.
I know, it is just I wish I did not rub him the wrong way.
Besides, Grammi usually keeps him in line at home.
[sighing, depressed tone] Home. Boy, it sure has been a long time.
[resumed cheerful tone] Right!
Gusto is moved to the right
You may not believe it, Tummi, but art involves a lot of pain... and suffering!
[Tummi is shown carrying Gusto on his shoulders]
I believe it, I believe it.
[Volcano is rumbling]
Gruffi, boy have we got an emergency for you!
If you had helped us, we could have been gone by now!
Gruffi, I want to go home!
Sorry kid, but we wasted our only chance.
But that bridge was not our only chance! The only chance is we have to get the boat over the waterfalls, am I right?
Lose the bridge! How about... [Gusto puts a stone in a tree branch, then releases it] ...SPROING!
No tools, no catapults neither!
Come on Gruff, think outside the box. Be inspired, be cra-z-z-y!
[Volcano rumbles again]
That mountain is going to kill us!
[Pyroclastics propel from mountain]
[Gummi Bears takes cover as one pyroclastic rock lands in lagoon, then is cooled, creating a lot of steam]
[inspired] That is it! Steam! Gusto, you maniac! You're absolutely right!
[Gruffi, Gusto and Tummi have placed boat in dragon's mouth. Volcano is due to burst and send the boat flying.]
[Artie flies to open the trap door.]
[Lava pours in and reacts with the water, creating a cloud of steam.]
[The boat rockets out of the dragon's mouth and flies over the waterfalls...]
[...and splashes down safely.]
Whoa, that little boat can fly!
[His dragon statue emits lava, just like a dragon breathing fire.]
[Gusto's face falls.]
[All three Gummis grab a paddle and row vigorously, getting the boat to calmer waters.]
Artie lands on the gunnel of the boat and squaks, with puffed feathers.]
ADArtie Deco
Good as new and steam-cleaned.
[Sunset, Gummis are navigating their way home.]
This boat gave us nothing but trouble.
Come on Gruffi, admit it, our adventure was a success. We took an eensy-weensy little trip and came back with a Gummi Bear.
[Gruffi realizes Gusto will probably become a member of Gummi Glen.]
[Gusto looks off into the horizon.]
Poor Gusto, he sure has been quiet since he lost his life's work.
Don't jinx it! Maybe he'll stay silent for the rest of the trip.
[Short silence.]
I got it! I can make a giant seascape painting! I can use the sail, as a canvas!
