Listen, Horton, turns out I need your help a little bit. Apparently, if that speck keeps moving around, our whole world… could be obliterated. So I need you to find us Whos a safer, more stable home… and fast.
No problem, Mr. Mayor. Let's see… (looks at a flower) Wow! That's a nice view.
Hello, is everything okay?!
(A grape falls on Horton's head. He looks to find out where the grape came from, and it was two woodpecker-like birds who are pecking a pile of grapes, taking turns trying to knock them down, causing them to fall and hit Horton, Horton then dodges 2 more, and a anteater-like creature with a vacuum-like snout of the species Nink walks by consuming flowers, nearby some termite-like insects with bladed teeth. Horton gasps in fear.)
What's going on up there?
OH NO!
THIS ENTIRE JUNGLE IS A HOUSE OF DEATH!!! (he stops panicking and looks up) Oh, wait. There's a good spot.
And it's then Horton saw at the top of Mount Nool
(the camera flies to Mount Nool's cave with a sunflower, the one that started this whole mess in the first place) a small cave that looked peaceful and quiet and cool,
where a sunflower grew proud and tall from the ground.
There, he knew every Who would be safe. Would be sound.
I found it, Mayor. The perfect place. Right up there. At the top of Mount Nool.
Mr. Mayor?
The Who-Centennial Committee is waiting for you to look over the giant meatball for the Edible Parade. Oh, and then you're due at the dentist for your Who-root canal.
You know, sticking “Who” in front of everything doesn’t make it hurt less. Just wastes time! (Miss Yelp closes the door) I don’t… wanna go. (to Horton) Listen, Horton, I gotta go. (packs most of his things in his suitcase, including his coffee and his goldfish) Apparently, there’s a problem with the giant meatball.
You just take care of that meatball, sir, and leave the freaking out to me.
So then Horton began his long, perilous trek,
determined to save the small world on the speck.
Horton was faithful and stalwart and kind.
I got you. Don't worry. I'll protect you!
He was a brave hero... at least in his mind.
We must become invisible. Travel silently. For there are forces that would seek to destroy us.
Huh?! So you think you can sneak up on me, huh?! (combat noises) It is clear that you are no match for my technique. Hey! (kicks a branch, but it snaps back and smacks his butt with an awkward shot of a red mark from below.) I see you have mastered the way of the snapping branch. Watch me tumble! (He jumps from branch to branch to the top of the tree.)
Morton Mouse, go!
You are fast, Horton, but the Kangaroo has monkeys! (Monkeys can be seen flying in from the distance.)
Hm? I will make monkeys of these monkeys. It is their destiny. (He does a Dragon Ball-style to fire a beam of energy at the monkeys.) For the clover!
Horton is the greatest hero of them all, haaaa!
(Cuts back to the same anime style) Horton and Morton: Horton! Morton! GO! (Horton runs forward, screaming, but is stopped by Morton.)
But Mount Nool is that way! (Horton felt dumb-founded for a sec.)
Ha-ha-ha! To the top of Mount Nool! As fast as lightning! Away, I go. (He starts to jumpkicks, but snaps back to reality as he trips, landing on a flower.) Oh, sorry little fellow. You'll be fine. Just think healing thoughts.
Horton, Horton! Look!
We've all got our own clovers with worlds on them!
Angela Glummox Yeah!
Oh...
In my world, everyone's a pony, and they all eat rainbows, and poop butterflies!
That's beautiful, Katie ! (Katie she puts her flower on the top of her head and walks away)
Ha-ah-ah.
In a... really weird way.
My world is called Jessicaland, and everyone worships Queen Jessica because Jessica is so beautiful.
Angela Glummox Jessica, that was awesome.
Rudy!
Mom, be careful! My best friend Thidwick lives on that!
Rudy, no one lives on this, it's not possible. (She crushes the flower in front of him.)
What...?
That Horton is a menace.
Mom, Mom, please, you're so weird! Don't do this to me!
Honey, go to your room. (Pushes Rudy's head to her pouch) Horton! (Horton and his class look away, while Jessica and Angela scream in terror and run away at the sight of Sour. Rudy's mother kicks Katie from bush, sending her flying over a tree resembling a football goal, but surprisingly, she finds it amusing)
Oh, you guys with worlds are in trouble! (he run away)
Have you forgotten what we've discussed?
Oh no, I'm an Elephant and Elephants never forget, it's a curse really! I remember, I was on my head and you said hmm and I looked up and you said ,what are you doing?, and I said the thing about the speck, then you pulled my ears and you poked me in the forehead...
Horton!
: Well you did.
