Ellie
It is not a compliment. For a possum, bravery is just dumb.

Scenes with Ellie

Crash
Can I pull back the tree and shoot me into the pond?
Manny
No.
Crash
Aw, come on!
Sid
Now. How do you except to impress Ellie with that attitude.
Manny
I don’t wanna impress her.
Sid
Then why're you trying so hard to, convince her that she’s a mammoth?
Manny
Because that’s what she is. I don’t care if she thinks she’s a possum, You can’t be two things!
Sid
Au contrarie, My friend. Tell that to the bullfrog, chicken hawk or turtledove.
Diego
He’s never gonna let up on you. It’ll be easier on all of us if you just go with it.
Manny
[groans, goes over to Crash, who's standing on a small tree]
So, uh, what do you want me to do?
Crash
Pull back the tree and shoot me into the pond.
Manny
[looks from the tree to the pond]
I don't know.
Crash
Well, if you're too lame to do it, we can get Ellie.
Manny
No, no. I can do it. I can do it. [pulls the tree back with his trunk]
Crash
Farther... farther...farther...
Manny
Have you done this before?
Crash
Ha! Only 1,000,000 times. Farther... farther... farther... [Manny pulls it back so far that the end of the branch is resting on the ground] Perfect! FIRE! [Manny let go off the tree; Crash goes soaring through the air] Yeah! I can fly! [singing] ♪ I believe I can fly...! ♪ [rams headfirst into an oak tree, and falls to the ground, unconscious, leaving behind an impression of himself in the trunk]

Crash!
Manny
Uh-oh!
Eddie
Crash! Crash! Crash, you okay?
Ellie
What happened?
Eddie
Manny shot him out of a tree!
Ellie
What's wrong with you?
Manny
He said he could do it!
Ellie
And you listened to him.
Eddie
Crash, whatever you do, don't go into the light!
Manny
Can I help in any way?
Ellie
You done enough?
Manny
[to Sid]
Are you happy now?
Eddie
Crash, Crash, don’t leave me! [crying] Who’s gonna watch my back? Who’s gonna be my Wingman of Mayhem? WHO’S GONNA ROLL IN THAT DUNG PATCH WITH ME?!!?
Crash
[wakes up]
Dung patch? Wait, my legs! I can stand!
Ellie
[Sid realizes Manny has found another mammoth]
Where? Wait a minute, I thought mammoths were extinct. [pause] What are you looking at me for?
Manny
I dunno, maybe because you're a mammoth?
Ellie
Me? Don't be ridiculous. I'm not a mammoth, I'm a possum!
Manny
Right, good one. I'm a newt. [points to Diego] This is my friend, the badger. [points to Sid] ...And my other friend, the platypus.
Sid "The Platypus"
Why've I gotta be the platypus? Make him the platypus! [points to Diego]
Crash
[pointing to Manny]
This guy givin' you trouble, sis?
Manny "The Newt", "The Badger" Diego and Sid "The Platypus"
[shocked]
"Sis"?!
Ellie
That's right. These are my brothers. Possum, possum, possum.
Manny "The Newt"
I don't think her tree goes all the way to the branch.
Ellie
[when she recognizes a familiar place]
You know, deep down, I knew I was different. I was a little bigger than the other possum kids. Okay, a lot bigger. Oh. Now I understand why the possum boys didn't find me appealing.
Manny
Well, that's too bad. Because as far as mammoths go, you're uh... you know...
Ellie
What?
Manny
Well, uh... attractive.
Ellie
Really?
Manny
Sure!
Ellie
What about me is attractive?
Manny
Well, uh, I dunno. That's your... butt.
Ellie
What about it?
Manny
It's... big?
Ellie
[pause] [sincerely]
Oh, you're just saying that.
Manny
No really! It's huge! Biggest darn butt I've ever seen!
Ellie
Oh, that is really sweet! What a crazy day. This morning, I woke up a possum and now... I'm a mammoth.
Crash
[Sid and Diego are tangled up after trying catch Crash and Eddie]
Surrender?
Diego and Sid
Never!
Crash and Eddie
Cool!
Crash
[They shoot out of their holes]
Slug them! [he and Eddie rapidly shoot pebbles out of the blow-dart shooters]
Diego
[he and Sid fall onto the ground]
If anyone asks, they were 50 of them and uh, they were... rattlesnakes. [Crash and Eddie climb down a tree and taunt Diego]
Eddie
Here, kitty, kitty!
Diego
Big mistake, you miscreants!
Eddie
Miscreants? [starts laughing along with Crash]
Sid
Uh, Diego, they're possums. [Crash and Eddie act like chickens until Diego roars and runs after them]
Crash
Retreat! [hops into Eddie's arms and Eddie runs away and Diego roars again]
Manny
[Cut scenes Manny walk and felt alone and look at the pond water]
I guess it’s just you and me now.
Manny
[Manny look around, and Ellie screaming and break tree branch]
I knew it! I knew it was the only one.
Ellie
Me too. Everybody falls out of the tree every now and then, they just don’t admit it!
Sid
Manny, who do you like better, me or Diego?
Manny
Diego. It's not even close.
Diego
[smug]
Heh, told ya.
Ellie
Manny, you can't choose between your kids!
Manny
He's not my kid, he's not even my dog (in fact). If I had a dog, and my dog had a kid and that dog's kid had a pet, that would be Sid.
Sid
Can I have a dog, Manny?
Manny
No.
Sid
Ellie, can I have a dog?
Ellie
Of course, you can, sweetie.
Manny
Ellie, we have to be consistent with him.
Ellie
[Ellie storms into the campsite]
Okay, let's go! We traveled with you all day, now you're coming with us at night.
Manny
But we can't see at night.
Ellie
Then enjoy the flood.
Eddie
I can't even look at him!
Crash
Pervert! [makes the 'I'm watching you' gesture towards Manny]
Sid
[sarcastically]
Makin' friends. Everywhere you go, just makin' friends.
Manny
[Sid, Diego and the possum duo are fighting when they heard ice cracking and Diego spits him out]
Okay, thanks to Sid, we're now traveling together. And like it or not, we're gonna be one big happy family! I'll be the daddy, Ellie will be the mommy, and Diego will be the uncle who eats the kids who get on my nerves! Now let's move it before the ground fall out from under our feet! [walks away]
Ellie
I thought that fat guys are supposed to be jolly.
Manny
Hey, I'm not fat! It's this fur! It makes me look big! It's poofy!
Ellie
[chuckling]
Oh, okay. [to Crash and Eddie] He's fat.
Manny
[the herd is trying to hold balance] [to Ellie]
You just overreacted. That's all.
Ellie
What?!
Crash
Take it back!
Eddie
There are many lives at stake here!
Sid
Wait a minute! He's got a point!
Crash
He's got nothing!
Sid
It was a misunderstanding!
Eddie
It was insensitive!
Diego
Apologize!
Manny
Why me?! She overreacted!
Diego
Just apologize!
Manny
No!
Diego
Do it!
Ellie
Okay. I'm sorry!
Together
What?!
Ellie
He's right. I overreacted!
Manny
You mean you...?
Diego
Not another word or I'll come down there and push you over myself!
Sid
I got it, I got it, I got it. [rocks tip over] Uh, oh. [Manny and Ellie lock trunks when the rocks collapse]
Diego
Manny, Ellie! Run! RUN!!! [Manny, Ellie, Crash and Eddie all run from their lives, Diego runs fast as he can but misses until Manny and Ellie catch him with their trunks leaving him dangling off the cliff]
Ellie
I guess we finally did something right together. [Manny and Ellie smiling at each other until Diego interrupts]
Diego
Hey, if you don't mind me, just hangin' out on the edge of a cliff here. Hoo. [Manny and Ellie pull Diego up on top]
Fast Tony
Folks! Escape from the flood is a, perfect time to shed those unsightly pounds, with fast Tony's, disaster diet! You, ma'm! You look like a big fat hairy beast! How'd you like to lose a tonne or two of that?
Female Ox
Would I ever!
Male Ox
Don't listen to him, Vera! You're already thin as a twig.
Fast Tony
I also have the perfect cure for your eyesight, my blind friend!
Manny
Ohh, We'll never make it at this pace! Ellie, it's okay! You can lose the camouflage!
Ellie
You're safe! OK, safe? Please!! Crash, Eddie, You two, Go scope it out.
Crash
What you got?
Eddie
Perimeter looks to be all clear captain.
Crash
Roger that, four-niner, over!
Eddie
Roger. Over!
Crash
All clear!
Eddie
Hawk!!
Manny
[Ellie gasps. All three of the mammals fall and play dead.]
What are you doing?
Ellie
Playing dead.
Sid
Manny, Why don't you do that?
Manny
Because, I'm a mammoth!
Sid
But you do it for treats, right?
Ellie
Is he gone?
Manny
You're safe! Get up.
Ellie
[gets up]
Man!, if you weren't here, that hawk would have swooped down, and snatched me up for dinner! That's how Cousin Wilson went.
Ellie
[A while later, Manny and Ellie walk down the path.]
Boy, I really feel for you, I do! I can't even imagine what it would be like, to be the last one of your species.
Manny
I'm not the last one.
Ellie
Oh, You brave, brave soul, that's right, don't give up hope.
Manny
Ellie? Look at our footprints, they're the same shape.
Ellie
Well, how do I know those aren't your footprints?
Manny
Well, then, look at our shadows. we match!
Ellie
You're right! We're the same! You must be part possum!
Crash
You wish!
Manny
Diego, there are whole continents moving faster than you, lets go! We got to catch up with the others!
Diego
Hey! Knock it off!!
Crash
Oh, cry me a river, blubber tooth tiger. Have some fun!
Diego
Can't you see the ice is thin enough. without you two wearing it down?
Sid
Oh, Diego. The ice may be thin, but it's strong enough to hold, a ten ton mammoth and a nine ton possum!
Sid
[???]
Mammal overboard!
Eddie
Ellie, get up!
Crash
If you play dead, you'll be dead! Look at me!
Sid
[He slapped her eye, making her cry out awake. They all ran to the shore. Sid struggled to swim and tried to reach the ice cap Diego is on.]
Diego? Diego! Come on, Come on! This may sting a little.
Sid
[He bites Diego's tail and they got out of the way.]
What in the animal kingdom was that?
Diego
I don't know, but from now on, playing safe. Water? Not safe.
Ellie
[They walk away and back to the forest.]
That, was the bravest thing I've ever seen.
Manny
It was nothing really,..
Ellie
Oh! It's not a compliment, To a possum, bravery is just dumb!
Crash
Yeah! Were spineless.
Eddie
Lily-livered!
Ellie
Maybe mammoths are going extinct because they put themselves in danger too often! Maybe you should run away more!
Manny
Good point! Thanks for the advice!
Ellie
Happy to help!
Manny
Do you believe her?! [Manny imitates Ellie.] "Bravery is just dumb. Maybe you should run away." [Normal voice] She's infuriating and stubborn and narrow-minded!
Sid
Ooh, you like her.
Manny
I do not!
Sid
Oh, don't worry. Your secret is safe with me. [To Diego] Oh, and so is yours.
Diego
What secret?
Sid
You know, the one where you can't swim?
Diego
That's ridiculous.
Sid
Fine, but we're living in a melting world buddy! You're gonna have to face your fears, sooner, or later.
Ellie
Hey, do we do any special tricks like, roll over? Or do we just, throw our weight around? Sorry, I don't know my own strength yet!
Manny
Ellie, do you realize that, now we have a chance to save our species?
Ellie
Really? How are we going to do that?
Manny
Well, you know,
Ellie
Did you just?!
Manny
No, I didn't mean.
Ellie
I'm not a mammoth for five minutes, and you're hittin' on me?
Manny
I wasn't saying, not right now. I'm, in time, ! I was just saying that its, our responsibility,
Ellie
What?!
Manny
That came out wrong! You're very pretty, But, we just met,
Ellie
Responsibility, ?! Just doing your duty, huh? Is that it? Ready to make the ultimate sacrifice, to save your species! Well, I got some news for you, ! You not saving the species tonight, or any other night!
Diego
So, how did it go?
Manny
Hmm! Not bad,
Ellie
[storms into the campsite]
OK, let's go! We travelled with you all day, now you coming with us at night!
Manny
But we can't see at night.
Ellie
Then enjoy the flood.
Eddie
I can't even look at him!
Crash
Pervert! [makes the 'I'm watching you' gesture towards Manny]
Sid
[sarcastically]
Making friends, everywhere you go. Just making friends.
Crash
Watch out, there's a stump!
Sid
Not anymore.
Manny
[walks up to Ellie, who's still upset with him]
I thought we could walk together.
Ellie
Crash, ask the man why he thinks that?
Crash
She said she thinks you are a jerk, and to go away!
Manny
She didn't say-- [hits his head on a rock] Ow! Look! Maybe if we spend more time. [hits a stump] Ow!
Ellie
Tell him that I need a little personal space right here!
Crash
[hangs upside down in front of Manny]
She said, go jump in a lake.
Eddie
...and possums rule! [fist bumps Crash]
Manny
I can hear her, you know?
Crash
What do you want? A medal?
Diego
[Suddenly, both possum brothers fell into the mist. As Ellie moved forward, the ground rose like a see-saw. Diego hangs on to it with Sid clinging to his back legs. With such tiny space, Manny and Ellie keep bumping into each other. Crash and Eddie are on a rock further below them.]
Stop moving! [The two mammoths do so and the rocky platforms stop.] Thank you.
Diego
[The rocks holding the platform break, making it move again and Sid loses his grip and falls down though he manages to hold onto another rocky platform.] [The platform which Ellie is standing on starts to break underneath her.]
Manny! Ellie! Lock trunks! [Manny and Ellie glare at each other.] Now! [The two wrap their trunks and walk up the rock, keeping it in balance.] Crash! Eddie! Grab onto that ledge!
Eddie
[The two possums see a ledge that could be their only chance of survival then look down to the abyss.] [Crash and Eddie laugh.]
Funny. Now what's your real plan?
Diego
Just do it!
Crash
Bye, Eddie!
Eddie
Bye, Crash!
Crash
Bye, Ellie!
Diego
Go, now!
Manny
[Crash stretch out and grab the ledge with Eddie holding on to his tail.] [to Ellie]
Um, uh, I'm sorry if what I said before offended you.
Ellie
What do you mean "if" it offended me?
Crash
"That" it offended her! That it offended her!
Manny
I meant that! That it offended you. You just overreacted, that's all.
Ellie
What?!
Crash
Take it back!
Eddie
There are other lives at sake here!
Sid
Wait a minute! He's got a point!
Crash
He's got nothing!
Sid
It was a misunderstanding!
Eddie
It was insensitive!
Diego
Apologize!
Manny
Why me?! She overreacted!
Diego
Just apologize!
Manny
No!
Diego
Do it!
Ellie
Okay, I'm sorry!
All
What?!
Ellie
He's right! I overreacted.
Manny
You mean you...?
Diego
Not another word or I'll come down there and push you over myself!
Sid
Got it. I got it. Aaah. [Rocks tip over.] Uh-oh. [Manny and Ellie lock trunks when the rocks collapse.
Diego
Manny, Ellie! Run! RUN!!! [Manny, Ellie, Crash and Eddie all run from their lives, Diego runs fast as he can but misses until Manny and Ellie catch him with their trunks leaving him dangling off the cliff.
Ellie
I guess we finally did something right together. [Manny and Ellie smiling at each other.]
Diego
[interrupts]
Hey, if you don't mind me, just hangin' out on the edge of a cliff here. Hoo. [Manny and Ellie pull Diego up on top.]
Sid
Remember the good old days?
Diego
Which good old days?
Sid
Oh, you know. Yesterday, last week, Back when the trees when up and down, and the ground stayed under our feet!
Diego
Yup! Those were the good days! Possums were possums and, mammoths were mammoths, We should get some sleep.
Sid
Yeah, tomorrow is the day the vulture said we're all gonna died!? [Ellie picked up a sleeping Crash and Eddie up on a tree for them to hang her tails. Then Ellie did the same.]
Diego
[It changes to Diego sleeping before yawning and stretches his paws as he wake up, only to feel water beneath them.]
Water. Water!
Manny
[Diego jumps onto Manny in fright, which makes him wake up startled.]
Aaah!
[Manny stumbles back and bumps into the tree, knocking Ellie, Crash and Eddie down and splash into the water.
Eddie
Crash, I told you not to drink before bed.
Crash
I didn't do this! At least not all of it.
Ellie
What's happening?
Manny
We overslept. We need to move.
Eddie
[The herd is about to move]
What if we're last creatures left alive? We'll have to repopulate the earth!
Crash
How? Everyone's either a dude or a sister!
Sid
[Sid arrives]
Hi, hey, Manny, Wow, what a night! You'll never guess what happened to me.
Diego
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you were sleepwalking.
Sid
Oh, no, no, no. I was kidnapped by a tribe of mini-sloths.
Diego
That was going to be my second guess.
Sid
And they worship me, I mean sure, they tossed me into a flaming tar pit, but they worship me!!
Manny
Sid, you were dreaming! Come on, The water's rising faster than we're moving!
Sid
I'm telling you! I was kidnapped, I was worshipped and they, Guys?! Oh, fine!
Manny
I don't see her anywhere!
Diego
Maybe she is already on board!
Manny
All right, keep quiet! Come on, get moving!
Ellie
There it is!!
Crash
Ellie!
Ellie
Come on, come on! Run! Push!! You guys got to go.
Crash
We're not leaving you!!
Ellie
I'm not asking!
Eddie
Ellie! No! Ellie, don't worry! We're going for help.
Crash
Stay here!
Ellie
Duh!
Eddie
Help us! Somebody help!
Crash
Manny! Manny! Manny, It's Ellie! She's trapped in a cave!
Manny
Ellie!!
Ellie
Manny?!
Crash
Help!
Sid
I'll save you.
Crash
[Sid leaps but he ended up hitting the ice flow, knocking him unconscious.]
Great! Who's gonna save him? You really need to brush!
Diego
Okay, okay, okay. Jump in now. Come on, 'fraidy cat. Come on. You can do this, you can do this. You can do this.
Crash
Help!
Diego
Trust your instincts. Attack the water. I am not your prey. I am not your prey. I am not your prey! [Diego yells, jumps in the underwater to reef. Manny pushes on the log, and Crash and Eddie hold onto Sid.] Attack the water. Stalking the prey. Come on, kick! Even babies can do it. Come on, claw, kick, claw, kick, Hey! I'm stalking the prey.
Crash
Eddie! [Diego quickly swims down and grabbed Sid and Eddie up to the surface, The possums collapse on each other panting while Sid regained consciousness.]
Sid
You did it buddy. You kicked waters butt!
Diego
Nothing to it. Most animals can swim as babies you know.
Sid
Yeah, but not tigers. I left that part out. [???] There he is!
Manny
Ellie, hold on to me!
Sid
Manny! They're behind you!
