Blu
[Blu chants to himself with fear whilst trapped in a cage]

Okay. Okay. There's no place like home. There's no place like home. Oh, how I wish I was back in my own cage, with my mirror and my swing and my little bell. Oh, how I miss my little bell.

Shh! Play dead.

Blu
[She drops to the floor of the cage]

What? I don't need to play dead. I'm about to have a heart attack.

Just do it!

Blu
[sighs]

Fine. [moans] [gagging] [grunting]

[he fakes a fall and starts twitching]

Stop twitching.

Blu

Oh, come on. It's the twitching that sells it.

Shh!

[First Words]

Come on in, kid.

[a boy places the cage holding Blu and Jewel on the table in front of Marcel] [First Words]

Well, what do you know? Good work, Fernando. You see, boys? What did I tell you about this one?

Tipa
[First Words]

That you were going to pay him half as much as you said? [Marcel slaps Tipa in the face to shut him up] Ow!

No, you idiot. That he reminds me of myself when I was that age. Sweet, resourceful. Here you go, kid. [he hands the boy some money]

Hey. This is only half of what you promised me.

Ah, shut up, kid. [takes the cover off the cage to see Blu and Jewel looking dead] What the...? [he picks up Jewel] I thought I told you I needed these birds alive. Tell me, Fernando, does this look alive to you? Huh?

[Jewel bites Marcel's thumb and flies away] [squwaks]
[screams]

Get her!

Come over here!

Armando and Tipa
[grunts]
Blu

Jewel!

[panting]

Come here!

[pants, screams]

Hello, pretty bird. What's the matter? Cockatoo got your throat?

Nigel! Alive.

To be continued.

Tipa
[gasping]
[groans, sighs]
Blu
[after Jewel has been caught and placed back in the cage with Blu]

That was your plan-- to take off and leave me? Gee, thanks.

Well, why didn't you follow me?

Blu

Uh... [doesn't reply as he's too embarrassed to admit he doesn't fly yet]

Nice work, Nigel.

Tipa

Yeah, nice work, Nigel.

The last blue macaws on Earth. [laughs] These are worth a fortune. Hey, Fernando. Hang these up in the other room.

Scaredy Bird

Hey, Birdy. Let me out. Let me out! Let me out of here!!!

Neurotic Bird

Who's a pretty bird? I'm a pretty bird. Pretty bird. I'm a pretty bird. [laughs] I'm a pretty bird.

Bat

I was framed! They got the wrong guy!

Sorry, guys. Nothing personal. So, what's going to happen to them?

Don't worry. We're going to find good homes for them. Now, go home to your mama.

But I don't have a mama.

Father?

Brother?

Tipa

Goldfish? Aw. Can we keep him, boss?

No! [he shuts the door in Fernando's face]

Tipa
[hearing Marcel talking to his men through the door]

So, Marcel, what's really going to happen to those birds?

Ugh! Plucked, stuffed, eaten. Who cares? All I know is we're going to be rich.

All
[evilly laughing]

We're gonna be rich!

[grunts, groans]
Announcer
[speaking Portuguese]

Come on! The game's starting.

Yes, you were very clear. Tomorrow, or the deal is off. Of course I have both the macaws. Yes, I will deliver them myself. Goodbye. All right, you two. You load the truck tonight. First thing, in the morning, we bring those birds to the airport. You got it?

Oh, yeah, sure. Yeah, uh-huh.

Tipa

Oh, yeah. All right. Heard you.

Oh. And one of you feed Nigel.

Men
[gulp]

Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.

Tipa

Yes!

Uh-uh. Scissors cuts rock.

Tipa

Oh, man. How come you always win? [nervous grunting] Nice birdie. [whimpering] Yeah, here you go.

[shrieks]
Tipa

Aah!

[gasps]
Tipa
[sighs, grunts]

Ugh! Cannibal.

Blu
[trapped in their cage in a room full of the other trapped animals]

Okay, pull it together. The key is not to panic.

I'm not panicking.

Blu

I wasn't talking to you; I was talking to me. But it's okay, because any minute now, Linda will find us.

Oh, great. And then she'll stick us behind another set of bars, right?

Blu

Yeah. Uh, I mean, no.

Look, pet, cages might work for you, but I don't want to belong to anyone.

Birds
[gasping]
[smacking lips]

Something seems to be lodged in my beak. Would you mind?

Bird
[whimpering] [screams]
[laughing]
Blu
[grunts]

Ow!

[jumping onto the cage Blu and Jewel are being held in]

Oh, I know I'm not a pretty birdie, but I used to be quite a looker. A star. Lights, camera, action.

["Pretty Bird" plays] [grunts]
Blu

Hey!

Sweet nightmares. [laughing] [laughs wickedly and flies away]

Blu

Not cool, man! Scary, but not cool. Hey, are you okay?

[She starts throwing herself at the cage bars]

No, I am definitely not okay!

Blu

Whoa! Whoa, whoa, wait, wait. What are you doing?

Getting out of here. [grunts]

Blu

Whoa!

Are you going to help me or what?

Blu

Actually, all the survival guides say to sit and wait... Ow! ...and help will come.

No one is coming!

Blu
[She throws herself more violently at the cage]

Whoa!

We are on our own, and if we just sit here, we're going to die!

Blu
[screams]
Men

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Men
[Sportscast plays in Portuguese]

No!

Tipa

Nigel, get out of the way!

[squawks]

Yeah! Hold on!

[grunting]
Blu
[as Jewel is continuing to throw herself around the cage]

Stop, stop. Why don't you just open the door? [he slides open the cage door with his beak]

[panting]

Are you kidding me?

Blu

What? It's just a standard flip slide bolt. Just rotate...

Come on! Let's fly! [screams] [Jewel flies out of the cage and grabs hold of Blu, but Blu grabs the cage with his beak] What are you doing?

Blu

Oh, I can't...

What? You can't what?

Blu
[Marcel's men open the door to catch them in the act of escaping and Blu lets go of the cage] [gasps]
Men
[grunting]
[shrieks]
[hollering]
Blu
[gasps]

Whoa! I can't fly!

[they both fall onto a washline and start sliding across it]

You couldn't tell me this before now?

Blu

It didn't matter before now! [muffled grunting]

Jewel and Blu
[they crash into a wall] [holler, grunt]

I hate you.

Both
[hollering]
[after they crash land to the ground]

Is there anything else I need to know?

Blu

Yes. I can't fly, I pick my beak. And once in a while, I pee in the birdbath. Happy?

There they are!

We got to get out of here!

Blu

Whoa!

Move! Come on, just move! Move!

Jewel and Blu
[gasping and grunting]
Blu
[as they're trying to get away from Marcel's men]

Wait. Wait. Listen to me. Flying may not be my thing, but walking is. Follow my lead. Inside leg, outside leg. [he starts leading the way walking]

Yeah. Yeah, okay. I got it.

Blu

Inside, outside.

Inside, outside, inside, outside!

Blu

Inside, outside.

Inside, outside.

[Jewel and Blu are running away from Nigel] [as they are running away from Marcel's men] [panting] [she and Blu are running away from Nigel]

Oh, this is great. I'm chained to the only bird in the world who can't fly.

Blu

Actually, there are about 40 species of flightless birds.

[notices a box]

Duck!
Blu No, ducks can fly.

Tipa

Uh...

They were two birds, chained together, in a cage. HOW COULD YOU LOSE THEM!

Tipa

They outsmarted us, boss. But-But don't worry. We'll get them back. I have a plan.

Oh, great. What are you going to do, wander the city calling, "Here, birdie, birdie. Here, birdie"?

Tipa

Well, anything sounds dumb when you say it like that. [groans]

[laughs]

Okay. We have to get the birds to the airport tonight.

Tipa

But it's Carnival. All the roads will be blocked by the parade.

And that's why I wanted to go this morning! Nigel! [Nigel flies over onto Marcel's shoulder]

[squawks]

This bird is ten times smarter than the two of you combined.

Tipa

Yeah, well, if he's so smart, then why don't you put him in charge?

I am putting him in charge.

[to Tipa]

Stop suggesting things!

Go find them nigel. [Nigel flies out of the window in search of Blu and Jewel]

Tipa
[gasps]
[Nigel flies out of the window in search of Blu and Jewel]

Hmm. If we can't get through the parade. We'll have to be in the parade.

Men

Huh?

Come on. Follow me.

Uh... [groans]

What? But... the birds were here.

Yeah, sure they were, kid.

I swear! The birds were right here.

Linda

Well, how do you know?

Because I'm-- I'm the one who took them.

Linda

You?!

I-I... I didn't mean to hurt anybody... I needed the money.

Linda

But Fernando, I trusted you!

I know, but-- [Before he can finish Tipa and Armando enter]

Linda
[gasps]
Tipa
[chuckling]

Oh, man, that's good.

Hey, guys.

What are you doing here?

I just wanted to see if... you had any work for me.

Tipa

Well, if you were here two hours ago, and you've could've helped us load the... Ow! What?

Mmm... when I bite down on your head, will it go pop? Or will it go crack? [he squeezes hard on the little green birds head] Where are the cerulean birds? That means blue, by the way.

[gasps]

They escaped! Went to Luiz.

Anything else?

(Smiles)

They said you were very nice.

Hmm, did they? Well, liar.

And handsome too?

Hey, Jewel?

I'm gonna let you out of here.

No, no. You can't be here. You have to go. Nigel is...

[Suddenly Nigel attacks Blu and throws him in a cage]

Hello, pretty bird. So kind of you to join our little soiree.

Blu

Oh, come on. You really think I came alone? I got three of the roughest, meanest, craziest birds in all of Rio right behind me.

Woo-hoo! You hear that, guys?

[Blu sees that Nigel has replaced Rafael, Nico, & Pedro in a cage nearby]

We're saved! That's right! That's right. That's right.

Uh... I think he means us.

Oh.

Ah, love. It's such a powerful and stupid thing.

[on top of a carnival float]

I don't know how I got up here, but I ain't never comin' down! Ah-ah! Woo-hoo! [starts dancing]

Tipa
[to a guilty Fernando as he gives the cage with Rafael, Pedro and Nico in it to him]

Come on, kid.

[to Blu and Jewel]

I'm gonna get you guys out of here. [gasps when Nigel comes down and screeches at him]

What do you think you're doing?

Uh, nothing.

You shouldn't have done that. [Fernando looks sadly back at Jewel as Marcel drags him away, then bites him on the hand to escape] Now, come on. [grunts] Ow! [groans]

[panting]
[to Armando]

Just forget him. Get the birds!

They're getting away.

Linda

We'll see about that.

[The parade float crashes thru the barb wired gates]

Ahh! Watch out!

We did it, boys!

Yes!

Tipa

Yes, we did it! Ha, ha! We're the best! Ha, ha.

[spots the scarlet macaw parade float in front of them]

Is that. A float?

Tipa

Wow! Look at the detail on that thing.

Ooh!

[to Tipa]

Pull up, you idiot! Pull up!

All
[The plane pulls up as they all scream in which the Plane damages the sun part of the scarlet macaw parade float] [screaming]
[screams]

Linda [sobbing]: Blu! Blu! Oh, Blu. [sobbing continues]

Sorry, Eva, I'm not gonna be home for dinner.

Blu
[Rafael, Pedro and Nico soon notice the strap getting hooked onto the fire extinguisher] [grunts]

What are you doing?

Blu

I'm gonna pop this cage open like a soda can. [grunting as he hits the side of the cage four times to get the fire extinguisher to fall to the ground, popping it open]

Now, that's popping!

Blu

Hurry. We gotta help the others.

Pretty Bird

I'm a pretty bird, I'm a pretty bird. Who's a pretty bird? I'm a pretty bird. Pretty bird, I'm a pretty bird. [hysterical laugh]

Blu

Hey, wait, wait, wait! Wait! [pants]

Um, it's okay. Hey, it's okay. We'll figure this out together. Right? Aah!

[after Blu and Jewel have released all the other caged birds, Nigel attacks Blu]

Let him go!

[Nigel hits Jewel away she falls against the wall of the plane and a cage lands on her wing, bruising and injuring it]

Ow!

Blu

Jewel!

Ow! My wing.

Oh, pity. Now we have two useless, birds. [laughing]

[Blu grabs hold of the hose on the fire extinguisher and attaches it to Nigel's leg]

Huh?

Blu

Not cool, man. Not cool!

[Blu releases the pressure on the fire extinguisher and Nigel bursts out of the plane] [screaming]

Uh-oh. [screams]

Ahh! We're going down! Huh? Okay, okay.

[Jewel kisses Blu, heartbeat heard]

Blu, you're flying!

Blu

Yeah! Woo-hoo! I'm flying! I'm really flying! You're right! I'm not an ostrich! I'm not an ostrich!

Whoo-hoo! What--? Aah!
