8 scenes
[Soon after, they encounter of a herd of various dinosaurs (Iguanodons, Parasaurolophus, Styracosaurus, Pachyrhinosaurus, Microceratus, Struthiominus, and Stygimoloch.) It led by Kron as each other]

Kron, There is a more protected spot further down the--

We'll rest here for the night. Go ahead, Bruton.

Baylene
[Bruton shows a bellow roars at the herd, as Aladar walking towards the herd]

Oh, Eema! I wish we were at your nesting grounds now! All this pushing and shoving about, just for a place to sleep! I'm not used to this kind of behavior.

Baylene, you've got big feet; just give 'em a kick! [shoves a stygimoloch] GET!

Baylene

Oh, I couldn't possibly... eh, shoo! Shoo!

Would you come on, Baylene? If you wanna get to the nesting grounds alive, show some backbone!

Hey there!

Ahhh!

[after spooking Eema]

Oh... sorry about that. Uh, it's just that, we overhead you talking and, umm...

[Url drops a rock enthusiastically at his feet just like a dog, Aladar looks confused]

Well, my word. Look at Url. He doesn't normally warm up to strangers so fast.

Baylene
[Sniffing the lemurs on Aladar's back and sneezing to lemurs]

What an unfortunate blemish.

Good mud bath would clear those right up.

Yar

Excuse me?

[Eema growls in surprise]

Um, he's my grandfather. [chuckles] Couple of times removed.

Or a couple of species removed.

My name's Aladar. This is my family. We're all that's left.

Baylene

Oh, dear. I'm so sorry.

Baylene's the last of her kind. Finding stragglers like her all along the way!

I heard you say something about "Nesting Grounds".

It is the most beautiful place there is, child. It's where the herd goes to have their babies.

Will we find anybody that looks...like us there?

Oh, the last few days, I've seen 'em all shapes and sizes. Who knows what we'll find? The hard job now is just getting there.

Baylene

And we're being driven unmercifully.

By who?

Kron, the herd's head honcho.

Baylene

We can hardly keep up. An older woman like myself, it's...well, it's positively indecent.

Then tell him! What's the worst he can do? [Neera, Kron, and Bruton approach; Url nervously walks out of the way; Bruton growls; Kron rudely pushes past] Hey! What's his problem?

That's him, honey, Kron.

[runs up to Kron]

Huh. Excuse me! Kron! Got a second?

Get lost kid!

[chuckles]

Relax Bruton. [comes up to Aladar] Who are you?

Uh...Aladar.

Why aren't you up here with the— [notices the lemurs on Aladar's back] ...uh, young bloods? [snorts at them]

Well, I was back here talking to these guys. I guess they're having a hard time keeping up. So, you know, maybe you could slow down a bit?

[Neera chuckles and smiles]

Hmm! Let the weak set the pace. Now, there's an idea. Better let me do the thinking from now on, Aladar.

Hey! They need help back here!

Watch yourself, boy. [leaves with a dismissive snort]

Don't worry. That's how my brother treats newcomers… no matter how charming they are. [follows Kron away]

[to Aladar]

You sure know how to catch a girl's eye there, stud!

I wouldn't be catching nobody's eye if I was you. Especially Neera's. You just keep your head down, and you mind what Kron tells you.

Yar

Since when do we take orders from the likes of him?!

[chuckles]

Kron has swatted flies bigger than you, pops.

Yar

I could hold that monster's brain in the palm of my-!

No, Yar, she's right. Better to keep our heads down with this bunch than get 'em bitten off by those things.

[The velociraptors hissing]

Well, you just consider yourself lucky that's all that's following us.
[When velociraptors playing fighting biting each other but the raptor stop fighting, and furious looking an scaring eye behind to it]

[Later, The herd of dinosaurs sleeping on at night, but after that, the sun will rises up in the desert, the herd waking up in the morning to time to moving on. Zini looks find Aladar and his friends are sleeping over in the desert.] [Aladar snoring]

Hey wake up, enough with the beauty sleep! You're ravishing already! [Aladar snoring again, he looks confused and checking open Aladar's eye, sarcastically] Hey! Hello! Anybody in there?

[Get up and swoop Zini into his nostril]

Zini, what are you doing?

I believe you left a wake-up call for the dawn of time. COME ON! Move it!

What's the hurry?

Something's up. The herd's gathering without us. Let's check it out.

Rise and shine! Kron says everybody goes. [trying to Iguanodon's stomach, and up in the feet] Come on, get up! On your feet!

[looks joking]

Heh. The charm never stops around here.

[looks confused to Aladar]

You saying something?

Uh, no, no, sir.

[Bruton walking towards to Aladar around, angoring sensing on each side around in the herd]

Unless you got a death wish, you and that little parasite better get MOVING!

[sarcastically; about Bruton]

Sheesh! Is that guy ugly or what? Hey, hey, hey, [to Neera] there's your girlfriend.

What are you takin' about?

You know what I'm takin' about: Neera. [about Neera] Scaly skin, Yellow eyes. Big ankles.

Yeah, I made a real I'm on her.

[whilst combing his head back with his head]

What you need is a little help from the 'love monkey.'

The 'love monkey?'

Ow! Baby! [calling howling out to Neera and the 2 iguandon children]

[Aladar nervously laughs] [About Aladar]

That, children, is what's known as a jerkasaurus.

And with that, the ice is broken.

[When Aladar turning around the herd, Bruton makes the distinctive bellowing roar (the sound that no other dinosaur makes in the movie) with the herd, suddenly, Kron's make attention in the desert]

We've got a lot of first-timers here. Make sure they get it. We stop for nothing, and no one.

[Silence to the herd] [turns to herd]

If this is your first crossing, listen up. There is no water till we reach the other side. And you'd better keep up, 'cause if a predator catches you, you're on your own. Move out!

Baylene
[Bruton head out the herd to start moving. Kron and the herd vision walking cross the desert]

Oh, my goodness. It looks like a very long walk.

And hot. If you smell somethin' sizzlin', it could be me.

[The next day as the herd is traveling to get to the lake, Kron tells his second-in-command, Bruton, to give orders that the herd must keep up because if a predator catches anyone, they're on their own.]

The lake!

Yar

We made it?

It's just over that... that hill, baby.

Baylene

Oh, thank goodness.

Come on, Eema. Water, remember water?

Oh, it's time to refresh my memory. [Kron drives the herd unmercifully across the hot sunny desert, losing a couple of members in the process, until they finally reach the lake] I'm just gonna walk right into that lake until the water's up to my eyeballs and soak it all in. [sighs]

[a discover that lake a skeleton dinosaur is a dryed with no water]

Maybe the rains collected somewhere else. What do you want us to do?

Take a scout and check the entire perimeter. [Bruton to take scout and check the entire perimeter to see if there's any water. a two iguanodon children turns face to Kron] ENOUGH! You have to be strong now! The nesting grounds are only a few days away! KEEP MOVING!

Kron, we've never gone this far without water: if we keep going like this, we'll lose half the herd.

Then we save the half that deserves to live. [distinctive Iguanodon bellowing roars at herd]

Baylene

What? They're moving already? Oh-ho, we'll never keep up.

There was water here, always water here before. We always had water, always, and... plenty of mud. [coughs]

Baylene

Oh, Eema, please. The herd won't wait, we must carry on.

You gotta get up!

[Baylene walks rumble]

There was water everywhere.

Baylene

There is no water, dear.

[as Baylene walks comfort her, Aladar hears something rumble under her feet]

Baylene, don't move.

Baylene

Oh, what is it? What's wrong?

[as Baylene rumbling her feet above the water]

Did you hear that?

I sure do. Lift your foot, Baylene.

[She lifts her foot, and Aladar and Zini dig a hole under it]

Ooh!

[Eema coughs]

Now press down.

[Baylene press down, and her titanic size has unearthed the water]

I always did like big girls!

Water!

Baylene

Oh, my goodness!

[makes the distinctive Iguanodon roar to get the herd's attention and calling out the Neera and Kron]

Water! Come on!

He found water.

Baylene
[Aladar dig a hole to found a water]

That's it, Eema. Come drink.

[The others help Eema to drinking a water in the hole, soon, the friends drink, until Kron charges off in the desert]

Kron, look, all we had to do is dig, and--

Good. Now, get out of the way.

[Kron pushes his way into it while roaring and drinks the water for himself, showing no mercy for the herd charges it]

Wait! Wait! There's enough for everyone! Ah!

Ooh!

Eema! [as he is pushed by the thristy herd trying to make their way to the water; sarcastically] That's it! Keep pushing and... [he gets shoved to Parasaurolophus] Shoving! That's very helpful.

Baylene

Oh, joy. Blisters!

I got blisters ON my blisters.

Yar

You don't wanna know where I got blisters... [hears a bellow]

What was that?

Baylene

It came from up ahead.

Okay, what's the worst thing it could be?

[fearfully]

A Carnotaur.

[nervous]

Okay, what's the second worst thing it could be?

Baylene

TWO Carnotaurs! [shudders] Oh my goodness! O my goodness!

That's it! I'm gone!

Everybody! We don't know for sure! It could be the herd. Let's check it out.

[They turn the corner to find Bruton, exhausted]

Oh, it's Bruton!

Baylene

It appears we weren't the only ones left behind.

What happened?

Carnotaurs. We should keep moving.

We can't just leave him here!

We can if we move fast enough!

[to Bruton]

Hey, you don't look so good. Let me help me you.

Save your pity. I just need some rest. Now, get away from me!

Suit yourself. [hears thunder and sees Url with a stalactite in his mouth, moving towards a cave] If you change your mind, we'll be in those caves.

[they enter the cave]

It's dark, but at least it's dry.

I like dry. It's the dark part I'm having trouble with. [accidentally steps on Url's spikes] OWW! Sorry, Url. Sturdy li'l thing, ain't he?

Baylene
[Aladar chuckles]

Ahem. We appear to have a visitor.

[They see Bruton limping outside the cave in the rain. He falls; Aladar approaches him]

You coming in or what?

What is it with you?

At least I know enough to get in out of the rain. Now, come on. On your feet. [helps Bruton up and guides him into the cave] Uh, you can lie down with us. It's warmer.

Baylene
[Bruton lies down in a corner of the cave by himself]

May I remind you that he's one of them?

Well, looks like he's one of us now. [goes to lie down with the others]

Who booked this trip anyway?

Ah, you'll be at the Nesting Grounds soon enough.

Well, when I get there, I'm gonna give Kron a piece of my mind.

You tell him, Eema.
[Url lies on his back and falls asleep] .

Yar

If I could sleep that deep, I'd be in paradise.

If you could sleep that deep, honey, you'd be dead.

[leaps towards Bruton with a special plant in her hands]

This plant grew on our island. It will make you feel better. [takes some of the plant's juice and sprinkles it on Bruton's wounds]

[winces in pain; nods at Aladar]

Why is he doing this? Pushing them on with false hope?

It's hope that's gotten us this far.

But why doesn't he let them accept their fate? I've accepted mine.

And what is your fate?

To die here. It's the way things are.

Only if you give up, Bruton. It's your choice, not your fate. Well, the plant will help. [leaps away; Bruton takes the plant]

[The footsteps of the Carnotaurs awaken Aladar; he looks out and gazes in surprise at them; Bruton quietly comes up to him] [whispering]

Shh. Carnotaurs.

[whispering]

What do we do?

Wake the others.

Baylene
[The Carnotaurs move closer to the cave. Bruton, Eema, Baylene, and the lemurs proceed deeper into the cave. Aladar nudges Url to wake him up; he bellows in fright, and Aladar immediately silences him; the Carnotaurs look up briefly and then continue looking around]

Oh! [her neck touches the ceiling, causing a rock to fall and hit Eema]

[Aladar attempts to catch it, without success; one of the Carnotaurs examines the rock and sticks its snout through the water and sniffs Aladar before a thunderclap illuminates him; the Carnotaur charges at him]

Go! Go! Hurry! Move it, Eema! [the Carnotaur grabs him by the tail and drags him back]

Aladar! Aladar!

[The Carnotaurs fight over Aladar] [leaps into the fray; last words]

I'll hold them off! You help the others! [crashes purposely into the stone columns supporting the roof; he and one of the Carnotaurs are buried]

Bruton! [He comes back and tries to help Bruton, but the rocks fall on Bruton before he can] Bruton! NoooooOOOO!!!! [Coughs] Bruton!

[to Aladar]

You did what you could.
[A Carnotaurus distance roars on the rocks; Aladar look at the rocks, who's trying to push a rocks trying to get anger and he's very ugly snarling, is the one Carnotaurus left push out of the rocks; A dead second Carnotaurus, Aladar mouns to death Bruton's sacrifice was not completely in vain, as the other Carnotaurus died with him, the large Carnotaurus survives, however, leaving and roaring in vengeance, before continuing his search for the herd.]

[Aladar, Eema, Url, Baylene and the Lemurs are wandering through the cave. Zini is trying to pass the time by playing "I Spy"]

Okay, okay, let's do it again, let's do it again. Uh... I spy, with my little eye...

Yar

A rock.

You got it again! O, you are good.

Well, I'll tell you what I spy: a dead end.

Yar

What have we done now?

I guess we just go back.

[smells something]

Hang on a moment.

Zini, what is this?

You smell that?

[sniffing]

Yes.

[Aladar sniffs. Then as Zini pulls out the rocks, we see daylight] [gasps]

Get a load of that.

Baylene

Nice show.

Everybody, stand back. We're outta here! [tries to break the rocks, the cave collapses]

RUN!!

Unh!

ALADAR, LOOK OUT!!

[The falling boulders block the daylight] [echoing]

Noooooo! [tries to break the rocks, but fails]

Aladar, we'll go back.

Back to what? It's gone. We're not meant to survive.

Baylene

Oh yes we were! We're here, aren't we? And how dare you waste that good fortune, by simply giving up? Hah, shame on you! Shame on you! Shame on you! The worst of it is, you allowed an old fool like me to believe I was needed, that I still had a purpose. And you know what? You were right. And I'm going to keep on believing it. I for one am not willing to die here! [rears up and strikes the cave-in again and again]

Baylene
[The others join in; at length, the wall falls, to reveal a pristine valley beyond]

Oh my goodness.

The Nesting Grounds...It's untouched.

Our new home...

AND IT COMES WITH A POOL! [suri laughing] You're lady, you're lady and whooo!

Baylene

Whoo, whoo, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

[Zini on the Baylene's head]

CANNONBALL! [jump in the lake]

Baylene

Ha. Amateur.

[Baylene starts to jumps in the lake, fun waves]

LOOK OUT BELOW!

[Url watching Baylene fun waves with Zini]

Not bad! But I don't get it. Where's the herd?

[sotto voice]

Not to mention Neera!

Oh, they'll get here...soon enough. Oh, no!

Eema?

I spoke too soon.

What is it?

That, is the way we used to get in here. [indicates a towering pile of stones, blocking an entrance to the valley]

They'll never make it over that!

Aladar, wait! Wait! Kron'll eat you alive!

Let him try. [runs off]

[sighing]

I just hope Kron's in a listening mood...

[Last lines: Sometime later, the eggs on the nesting grounds, Aladar and Neera become mates and have a nest in the valley]

Move over, everybody! Bringin' in babies is what I do best!

Yar

I'd say it's been a few years since you hatched anything!

[Both laugh]

You're right. So, let me practice on your head!

Look! Somebody wants to meet you! [to the newborn iguanodon] Oh, aren't you the cutest little small-fry I ever did see!

Hey, little guy! He looks just like me!.

Meet your dad. He's not as crazy as he looks.

Baylene

Well done, little one!

Yar

Come 'ere, you little rascal; lemme take a good look at you... [the baby pees on him] yep. You're your father's son all right. [hands the baby over to Plio]

[arrives]

Hey, look what I found! New neighbors! [indicates five female lemurs]. Any of you ladies up for a game of "Monkey in the Middle"? [female lemurs playing on him] Easy, now! Easy! Hey!

[The lemurs laughing, Aladar bellows in joy, followed by Neera, Eema, Baylene, and finally the whole herd of surviving dinosaurs.] [closing narration]

And so, None of us we know what changes, big and small, lie ahead. One thing is certain; our journey's not over. We can only hope that, in some small way, our time here will be remembered.
