Eddie
[To Diego]

You want a piece of us? Let's go!

Crash

Banzai!

Crash

You wish!

Diego, there are whole continents moving faster than you, lets go! We got to catch up with the others!

Hey! Knock it off!!

Crash

Oh, cry me a river, blubber tooth tiger. Have some fun!

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?

I don't know, but from now on, playing safe. Water? Not safe.

[They walk away and back to the forest.]

That, was the bravest thing I've ever seen.

It was nothing really,..

Oh! It's not a compliment, To a possum, bravery is just dumb!

Crash

Yeah! Were spineless.

Eddie

Lily-livered!

Maybe mammoths are going extinct because they put themselves in danger too often! Maybe you should run away more!

Good point! Thanks for the advice!

Happy to help!

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.

I do not!

Sid

Oh, don't worry. Your secret is safe with me. [To Diego] Oh, and so is yours.

What secret?

Sid

You know, the one where you can't swim?

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.

Eddie
[To Diego]

You want a piece of us? Let is go!

Crash

Banzai!
[As Diego is about to bite Crash's head] You know the best part? We are carrying diseases!

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!

Ellie, do you realize that, now we have a chance to save our species?

Really? How are we going to do that?

Well, you know,

Did you just?!

No, I didn't mean.

I'm not a mammoth for five minutes, and you're hittin' on me?

I wasn't saying, not right now. I'm, in time, ! I was just saying that its, our responsibility,

What?!

That came out wrong! You're very pretty, But, we just met,

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!

So, how did it go?

Hmm! Not bad,

[storms into the campsite]

OK, let's go! We travelled with you all day, now you coming with us at night!

But we can't see at night.

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.

[walks up to Ellie, who's still upset with him]

I thought we could walk together.

Crash, ask the man why he thinks that?

Crash

She said she thinks you are a jerk, and to go away!

She didn't say-- [hits his head on a rock] Ow! Look! Maybe if we spend more time. [hits a stump] Ow!

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]

I can hear her, you know?

Crash

What do you want? A medal?

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.

I also have the perfect cure for your eyesight, my blind friend!

Ohh, We'll never make it at this pace! Ellie, it's okay! You can lose the camouflage!

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!!

[Ellie gasps. All three of the mammals fall and play dead.]

What are you doing?

Playing dead.

Sid

Manny, Why don't you do that?

Because, I'm a mammoth!

Sid

But you do it for treats, right?

Is he gone?

You're safe! Get up.

[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.

[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.

I'm not the last one.

Oh, You brave, brave soul, that's right, don't give up hope.

Ellie? Look at our footprints, they're the same shape.

Well, how do I know those aren't your footprints?

Well, then, look at our shadows. we match!

You're right! We're the same! You must be part possum!

I don't see her anywhere!

Maybe she is already on board!

All right, keep quiet! Come on, get moving!

There it is!!

Crash

Ellie!

Come on, come on! Run! Push!! You guys got to go.

Crash

We're not leaving you!!

I'm not asking!

Eddie

Ellie! No! Ellie, don't worry! We're going for help.

Crash

Stay here!

Duh!

Eddie

Help us! Somebody help!

Crash

Manny! Manny! Manny, It's Ellie! She's trapped in a cave!

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!

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!

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!

Nothing to it. Most animals can swim as babies you know.

Sid

Yeah, but not tigers. I left that part out. [???] There he is!

Ellie, hold on to me!

Sid

Manny! They're behind you!

It's all gonna flood. [walking away] Come on. We've gotta warn them.

Sid

Hmm. Maybe we can rapidly evolve into water creatures.

That's genius, Sid. [heads off after Manny]

Sid

Call me 'Squid'.

Sid
[Sid follows Diego and Manny]

Yeesh, this whole thing's a piece of junk. I can't believe I live here.

Sid
[Sid bounces up and down on the ground, and a rumbling noise is heard. Manny and Diego stop hearing the noise and look at Sid, who shrugs]

What?

Manny, Diego and Sid
[The ice beneath them breaks sending them all falling back down to the water park below]

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!

Forget reeds. I present you with this revolutionary gizmo we call bark. It's so buoyant, it actually floats!

Male Start

I'll show you something that floats! [laughs]

Oh, all right. It's your funeral.

[Manny, Diego and Sid slide towards Fast Tony, who curls up upon seeing them coming, but stop just moments before they hit him. Tony looks at Manny and uncurls]

You see, this is exactly what I'm talking about! Giant balls of furry lava! The sizes of mammoths! Raining from the sky!

Male Shovelmouth

Ah, go suck air through a reed!

You've gotta listen to him! He's right about the flood!

[Confused at Manny's sudden support]

I am? I mean, uh, yes, I am.

Deer

Wait a minute. You're the one who said there wasn't going to be a flood. Why should we listen to you?

Because we saw what's up there! The dam's gonna break! The entire valley's gonna flood!

Animals
[laugh]

Flood's real all right. And it's coming fast! Look around. You're in a bowl. Bowl's gonna fill up, ain't no way out.

Female Deer
[The animals murmur worriedly among themselves]

What are we going to do?!

Unless, you can make it to the end of the valley. There's a boat. It can save you.

Male Start

I don't see anything.

But, y'all better hurry. Grounds melting, walls tumbling, rocks crumbing. Survive that, and you'll be racing the water. Cause in three days time, it's gonna hit the geyser fields. BOOM!

Animals
[gasp]

[A male beaver faints

There is some good news, though. The more of you die, the better I eat.

Animals
[gasp]
[The female beaver faints again]

I didn't say it was good news for you.

Sid
[The Gunslinger flies away]

Ooh, he must've been a real pleasure to have in class.

Everyone
[Then a rumbling noise is heard and everyone looks to see a chunk of ice break off from the dam and fall towards them] [screaming]
Male Beaver
[The animals run as the ice continues to fall and crashes into the valley. A start quickly slides down the ice slide before it falls towards a baby beaver. The female beaver snatches the baby beaver out of the way before the slide hits the ground, causing it to shake. The female beaver puts the baby beaver down before looking up at the dam]

Dam!

All right, you heard the scary vulture. Let's move out.

[The animals start moving out of the water park]

Manny, do you really think there's a boat?

I don't know but in a few days this place is gonna to be a mile underwater. If there's any hope, it's that way.
[Manny, Sid, Diego and the Irelanders head off. Manny suddenly hears something and turns.]

[It changes to Diego sleeping before yawning and stretches his paws as he wake up, only to feel water beneath them.]

Water. Water!

[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.

What's happening?

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.

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.

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!!

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!

[Meanwhile, Manny has managed to get the kids under control by telling them a story]

And so, in the end, the little burro reached his mommy and they lived happily ever after.

Kid Animals

Yay!

Good job.

Beaver
[Putting his hand up]

Question: Why does the burro go home? Why doesn't he stay with the rabbits?

Because... because he wanted to be with his family.

Bird
[Landing on Manny's tusk]

I think he should go with the girl burro. That's a better love story.

Okay. [picks the bird up with his trunk and puts her down on the ground] Well, when you tell your burro story, that's what he'll do.

Deer

Burro is a demeaning name. Technically, it's called a Wild A**.

Fine. The Wild A** boy came home to his Wild A** mother.

[The kids laugh]

See? That's why I called it a burro!

Brontotheres Calf

Did the burro have a grazing problem? That would make him more relatable.

Start Calf

Boring.

Shovelmouth Calf

I don't get it.

Turtle

It's not believable.

Beaver

Do burrows eat their young? It's not a very satisfying ending.

Start Calf

Sometimes I throw up.

They lived happily ever after. You can't get more satisfying than that. One big happy family. That's the way it's supposed to be.

Bird

Then where's your big happy family?

[Meanwhile, Scrat is scurrying along the ice when he sees his acorn underneath him, much to his delight] [squeals in delight]

[He tries to get to his acorn but gets his teeth on the ice. He pulls them out, then jumps up and down on the ice many times. The ice cracks and flips Scrat underneath and the acorn on top. Scrat pushes on the ice again, and the same thing happens. He tries to climb out and grab the acorn; however, the ice keeps turning over and over with Scrat running on it until it sends the acorn sliding away and Scrat is once again underneath the ice. Scrat swims after it and pokes his nose out of the ice and sniffs in, accidentally pulling the acorn onto it and stopping him from breathing]

[whimpers]

[Underneath the ice, Scrat's eyes bulge, and he blows the acorn off before squeezing his head through the hole. He uses his teeth to cut a circle around him and climbs out of the water wearing a huge ice collar. He tries to get to his acorn, but the ice collar around his neck makes it difficult. He ends up falling over and rolling around the acorn. Scrat tries to get to the acorn, but the collar falls on top of him, sending the acorn rolling onto a patch of ice in the water. Scrat gets up and wobbles to the edge of the glacier he's on; however, the collar is so heavy that Scrat falls off the glacier onto the ice, sending the acorn flying to the top of a tall glacier. Scrat whimpers as he looks at it. Meanwhile, two ice chunks break off from the dam and fall into the valley below. Sid looks back at this before walking to catch up with the others]

Sid
[Sid is making a fire at a clearing. He looked around, seeing the bushes rustle, thinking it was Crash and Eddie.]

Boy, Manny sure took a big leap with Ellie today,

[lies down]

He sure did.

Sid

Yup. He stood on the shore of uncertainty, and dove right in, Splash!! Kind of brave, huh? The way he faced his fear.

I wouldn't know, Saber's don't feel fear.

Sid

Oh, come on! All animals feel fear, It's what separates us from safe! Rocks! Rocks have no fear, [tosses rock into the water] and they sink.

What are you getting at, Sid?

Sid

It may surprise you to know that I too, have experienced, fear!

No! You?

Sid

Oh, yes! As impossible as it seems, the sloth has natural enemies that would like to, harm, or otherwise, kill us.

I wonder why?

Sid

Oh, jealousy mostly. But the point is, that fear is natural.

Fear, is for prey.

Sid

Well then, You're letting the water make you, it's prey! Just jump in and trust your instincts! [leaps into the bushes] You know, most animals can swim as babies, and for a tiger, It's like crawling on your belly, to stalk helpless prey! Put that hunt on, OK?! Now, claw, kick, claw, kick, I'm stalking the prey! Claw, kick, now, I look back over my shoulder, to see if I am being followed, and I'm breathing! and I'm stalking and I'm stalking, I am falling.

Correction. You're sinking, kind of like a rock.

[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.

[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?

Just do it!

Crash

Bye, Eddie!

Eddie

Bye, Crash!

Crash

Bye, Ellie!

Go, now!

[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.

What do you mean "if" it offended me?

Crash

"That" it offended her! That it offended her!

I meant that! That it offended you. You just overreacted, that's all.

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!

Apologize!

Why me?! She overreacted!

Just apologize!

No!

Do it!

Okay, I'm sorry!

All

What?!

He's right! I overreacted.

You mean you...?

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.

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.

I guess we finally did something right together. [Manny and Ellie smiling at each other.]

[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?

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!

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.]

Dodos
[The sun brightens the screen turning it white. It changes to a fluffy cloudy area where Scrat pokes his head out and looks around. As he moves on and sniffs along the clouds, the sound of angelic vocalizing can be heard.] [vocalizes]

[Scrat whimpers as he walks on looking scared. He carries on walking until he bumps into something hard. He falls back, gets up, then shakes off the dizziness. Then, to his utter shock and delight is a pair of golden gates with an acorn in the middle. They open, and Scrat sees a lot of acorns lying around, much to his awe and delight. He walks through the gates, awestruck by this discovery. Scrat starts gathering up the acorns and hugging them with joy. But then, there, standing right in front of him, much to his delight, is a giant acorn. Scrat's eyes become acorns as he stares at it. He then happily begins bouncing his way towards it, dancing as he goes. Then, just as he's about to reach it, he suddenly freezes mid-run.]

[grunts and screams]
Sid
[He struggles to reach, but a strong gust of wind sweeps him off his feet back towards the gates, which close as he is pulled out. Scrat clings onto the gates but can do nothing except stare at the giant acorn one last time before losing his grip and being sent flying away from the gates as the screen fades to black.] [We then cut to one of Scrat's eyes opening as we see that it was Sid who saved his life. Sid wipes his tongue on his paw and looks at Scrat happily.]

I saved you, little buddy!

[Scrat wakes up and whips his tongue with his hands. Then he realizes that he doesn't have his acorn and suddenly glares. He stands up and does a karate pose.] [karate yells]
Sid
[screaming]

Hey, I saved you, little buddy! Ow! Ow! Ow!
[He runs away with Scrat attacking as an iris closes in on them as the film ends.]

Crash

Can I pull back the tree and shoot me into the pond?

No.

Crash

Aw, come on!

Sid

Now. How do you except to impress Ellie with that attitude.

I don’t wanna impress her.

Sid

Then why're you trying so hard to, convince her that she’s a mammoth?

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.

He’s never gonna let up on you. It’ll be easier on all of us if you just go with it.

[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.

[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.

No, no. I can do it. I can do it. [pulls the tree back with his trunk]

Crash

Farther... farther...farther...

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]

Eddie
[screams]

Crash!

Uh-oh!

Eddie

Crash! Crash! Crash, you okay?

What happened?

Eddie

Manny shot him out of a tree!

What's wrong with you?

He said he could do it!

And you listened to him.

Eddie

Crash, whatever you do, don't go into the light!

Can I help in any way?

You done enough?

[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!

Dung Beetle Dad
[rolling a ball of dung]

Do we have to bring this crap? I'm sure there's crap where we're going.

Dung Beetle Mom

Ugh! That was a gift from my mother!
