My faithful pet. How was the flight? Panic sweeps across the land.
Without the sword, Arthur is vulnerable.
G Griffin
[grunts]
Here's where we enter a gray area. Hmm.
[Ruber grabs The Griffin by the ruff of his neck. The Griffin groans in pain]
Excuse me? You lost Excalibur? How?!
G Griffin
I was attacked by a falcon.
[Ruber is now no longer holding onto The Griffin]
What? My magnificent beast outmatched by a puny, little pigeon?
G Griffin
It wasn't a pigeon. It was a falcon, with silver wings.
[softly]
Silver wings? [sarcastically] Ooh, scary. [Yelling as he grabs The Griffin by the ear] You stupid animal! Where is the sword now?
G Griffin
In a place of untold danger.
G Griffin
Precisely, Master.
[runs his finger along The Griffin's beak and up to the top of his head] [softly]
Have I told you today how magnificently and totally...worthless you are?!! [He rips The Griffin's eyebrow. The Griffin Screeches] Excalibur is the one thing that can keep me from my conquest of Camelot!
[He hears a horse neighing and sees Kayley riding off towards the Forbidden Forest] [screaming]
Oh! The-the girl!
[His "ironmen" are clumsy] [to Bladebeak]
You! You! You! Fancy Feet! After her! And bring her back! [to The Griffin] And you... [he grabs hold of The Griffin's head] you are going to lead me to [emphasizing the syllables] Excalibur!
G Griffin
Well, Master, we lost 'em again.
[Ruber prepares to strike him; then looks up along the path] .
Ah! That's where they went.
[Noise]
Tell me that was your stomach.
[shakes head]
It was the Ogre.
C Cornwall
Well, see ya, good luck, have a nice life;–– whatever's left of it.
What's so scary about ogres?
D Devon
[the skeleton of a large animal falls into their midst]
Their appetite!
C Cornwall
Oh, no; I think it's Uncle Yorick!
D Devon
Alas, poor Yorick!
[listening to Ayden the Falcon]
Quick! Get out of the way!
[The Ogre stamps on the skeleton, discards more bones, and drops an ornate sheath]
It's the scabbard from Excalibur! He does have the sword.
[Later]
Ogres sleep in the day. We'll wait for him to fall asleep, then, we'll grab the sword!
Shh! Quiet! The slightest noise and we're finished!
D Devon
[looks around at skeletons along the walls of the Ogre's lair]
Hmm. Charming place. I must get the name of his decorator.
He's here; I can smell him.
[The Ogre moves] .
You're right; he is here.
[aghast]
He's using it as a toothpick!
Tell me when he falls asleep.
[The Ogre gives a yawn and noisily lies down] .
C Cornwall
Let me guess: he fell asleep!
There's a ledge, just above the sword! But it's gotta be a twenty-foot drop.
[Garrett uses his staff and places it next to Cornwall. He places his hand on the stick, and compares it to Cornwall's height. He walks away, Devon and Cornwall look confused. Later, we see Devon and Cornwall's tail is hooked on the rock on the ledge, as the camera pans down, we see that Devon and Cornwall are holding onto Garrett's feet who is using his staff for Kayley to hook her legs around as she is trying to grab Excalibur. Devon and Cornwall are heard groaning.]
IC Iron Crossbowman
[Then we cut to the far angle from the human-chain. Ruber's foot stomps in front of the camera. And we cut to the front of Ruber and his men.]
Hey boss! Look! There they are–
whilst shoving one of the mace-wielding thug's mace balls into the arrow thug's mouth] Shut up! [he turns to see that the ogre hasn't woken up and the human-chain is anywhere going out of place. To himself, muttering.] (I hate ogres.) Walk this way. [Ruber's minions tip toe behind Ruber, making some metallic noises every step they take. Ruber sighs in annoyance. Devon spots Ruber, The Griffin and the henchmen from the distance.]
D Devon
Oh, no, it's him. [Devon points at Ruber, accidentally letting go of Garrett's foot]
G Griffin
[The chain began the jolt, Kayley nearly fell, but her feet managed to stay hooked on Garrett's staff. Kayley has lowered herself enough to Excalibur. Ruber has climbed on the Griffin and it begins to fly off, causing dust to rise.]
Ah-ah-ahhh-CHOOO! [After the Griffin sneezed, Ruber gasped, then Cornwall, then Garrett, and lastly Kayley. Then the ogre opens his eye in front of Kayley.]
Uh-oh! Nap-time's over! [Garrett does so, but he groans whilst doing so] Quick! Swing me back-and-forth! You're getting very sleepy, sleepy. [The ogre fell back to sleep shortly after Kayley hypnotized him]
[grabbing hold of Excalibur]
Can you reach it?
I've got it!
[Devon and Cornwall moan as Ayden grabs hold of Devon's head and pulls the chain to safety. Ruber and the Griffin fly off again to try to steal back the sword. But the ogre, still groggy, yawns in front of them, as the group ran for the exit. Ruber and the Griffin scream as they fall to the ground. Three of Ruber's henchmen chase after the group, but the ogre slams his hand into them, narrowly missing the group. Ruber and the Griffin land, and the ogre yawns and lifts his hand in the air. The flattened, but unharmed minions, blink. Then the ogre begins to change his sleeping position. Ruber and the Griffin gasp, as the ogre's rear end is lowering in front of them. The ogre sits down in his sleeping position, causing dust to rise.]
The Ogre's butt! [the dust clears to see that Ruber and the Griffin are indeed trapped under the ogre's butt]
G Griffin
Well, Master, at least things can't get any worse.
[After the Griffin said that, the ground begins to shake] [to the Griffin]
Wanna bet? [As the group ran towards the exit of the cave, breaking wind is heard.]
C Cornwall
Whoa! Watch it!
[Loud noise and gust of wind blowing Ruber and the Griffin over the heroes, who duck their heads and cover their noses as they run out of the Ogre's cave. Ruber and the Griffin crash into a cave wall]
Seize them!
G Griffin
[groaning, strained]
Yes, Master. [Devon and Cornwall are the first to run through the exit, and stop at a cliff.]
D Devon
There's no way out!
There's one way out: you'll have to fly!
D Devon
We can't fly! (We explained that before our song).
[Garrett seizes Kayley, Devon, & Cornwall and leaps with them into the canyon] .
C Cornwall
[deep]
Houston, we have a [normal] PROBLEM! [His voice echoes, as they slide down the cliff. Ruber stops at the cliff, followed by his henchmen]
After you! [he kicks them down the cliff, after the heroes. Ayden chirps in view, Ruber sees this, and motions the Griffin to attack him. The Griffin does so, but misses him, and Ayden flies around Ruber, who swings his sword at him, but misses. The Griffin's eyes widen and shrieks when he realizes what he's flying into. Ruber growls in shock, as the Griffin crashes into the cliff right below him, crumbling the cliff with Ruber on it, causing him to fall with the Griffin. Meanwhile, back to the group who are still sliding down the cliff with Kayley and Garrett on Devon and Cornwall, with Ruber's minions still sliding far behind. The Griffin and Ruber are right behind them.]
D Devon
Ladies and Gentlemen: Please put your seats in the upright position!
C Cornwall
Assume the crash position and hope you don't smell your socks! Tray tables up and put away your sandwiches!
C Cornwall
Hold on, gang. I think we're going in.
D Devon
We know you do have a choice, so thank you for flying Dragon Air! Ow! OW! OWW!! [They land on a lake extinguishing the fire, Garrett fell off into the water, but Kayley managed to stay on.]
C Cornwall
Tell you what, next time you try to fly, and we'll hold on.
We did it. We did it! I can't believe it! We did it!
[she takes Excalibur out of its scabbard]
So this is Excalibur. [Devon and Cornwall squabble over each other to hold the sword]
D Devon
Can I hold it? Give it to me!
C Cornwall
Please, let me hold it. Me!
[to Devon and Cornwall]
No! Excalibur only belongs in the hands of Arthur. [He walks away] Come on, Kayley.
