The next item up for auction, is a Porcelain lamp featuring, well, an unusual rat motif. What are my bid for this piece?
AAuctioneer
Do I hear one-fifty?
[entering the room] Two hundred!
AAuctioneer
Smashing! Do I hear-
[Auctioneer looks on in bewilderment]
[hesitant] Two....thousand!
[Auctioneer's monocle falls out in astonishment]
[Ratso and Finn are giving money to Tohru]
This is all we got Tohru.
Ratso; Think they take nunchuks?
The Rat Talisman is the key to my freedom, Valmont. It will reanimate me to flesh and bone.
You mean, you get back all your dragon power and stuff?
No, Shendu will still require the other Talismans, and our continued assistance for that.
Judging by experience, I will remain in this petrified form forever. And you will never lay your eyes on the lost treasure of Ching Xi Hung!
[The Dark Hand enforcers have Jackie bound and strapped in his wheelchair near the water's edge.]
[Tohru pushes the wheelchair hard with his foot; it rolls forward and plunges into the water with a splash. Jackie sinks underwater still bound. Fade to black, then bubbles rise on the surface.]
Hope you haven't eaten for an hour. [waves mockingly]
[Jade, being held by the enforcers nearby, watches in horror] [gasp]
You! [points at Ratso] Fanboy. The doll. [points at Gnomecop atop a trash can]
GGnomecop
[investigating the trash can] sniff sniff TurboTroll is near...
[The enforcers run toward Gnomecop to catch him. Jade struggles in Tohru's hold, pulls out a TurboTroll toy, and gets Gnomecop's attention.]
GGnomecop
notices Gnomepower! [jumps over the enforcers toward Tohru; Jade slips free as Gnomecop distracts them]
Here he is~ and there he goes! [sticks TurboTroll in Tohru's pant leg; Gnomecop dives in after it in chase. Tohru spins around frantically trying to get Gnomecop out]
[Meanwhile, underwater: Jackie quickly unbinds himself from the wheelchair straps using his martial arts skills, kicks off the bottom with his good leg, and heads to the surface.]
[Jade runs and jumps in.]
Hang on, Jackie! [Jade cannonballs into the water without hesitation.]
[They miss each other initially underwater. Jade searches, sees only the empty wheelchair sinking.]
[Jackie swims back down and taps her on the shoulder underwater.]
[Jade gets a big startled jump/reaction at first.]
[She instantly switches to huge relief when she sees he's safe and okay. They share a quick relieved moment underwater, before surfacing together toward the pier. Once surfaced, they share another hug/relief moment.]
