Enjoy the new book.
Thanks, Linda.
Bye, now. Yes, Mom, I'd to visit. But who would take care of Blu? Mom, they don't have kennel's for parrots. Here's your hot chocolate, Blu.
Blu
Just how you like it. Plus, I don't trust leaving Blu with just anyone. No, I don't have a bird-sitter...
Blu
Ah. This is the life. [sniffs] The perfect marshmallow-to-cocoa ratio. [counting the marshmallows] One, two, three, four, five... [another marshmallow floats to the surface] six. Mmm. [takes a sip of his cocoa]
Well, well, if it isn't my favorite nerd bird.
Blu
Very... very funny. Real mature.
Hey, pet! Where you migrating to this year, huh? The breakfast nook?
Blu
Throw all the snowballs you want. I'm protected by this magical force field called glass. It's what keeps us so toasty and warm in here while you guys are out there freezing your...
La, la, la, la, la! [laughing]
Blu
Classy.
Tulio
Arara! Arara! Arara! Ara... [yelling] [groaning]
Are you all right?
Tulio
I'm not really built for this weather.
Oh. Are you looking for some books?
Tulio
Books? No. [chuckling] No. I have come 6,000 miles looking for him.
Blu
Doctor of ornithology?
Tulio
Ooh. He's magnificent. [imitates birdcalls]
Blu
Linda, little help here. Linda?
Wow. You're actually communicating.
Tulio
Yes. Yes. I introduced myself and shook my tail feathers counter-clockwise, thus deffering to his dominance.
Blu
I did not get that at all.
So, Dr. Monteiro, you...
Tulio
Oh, no "Doctor," please. Just call me Tulio. You know, your macaw is a very special bird. In fact, as far as we know, Blu is the last male of his kind.
Really?
Tulio
Yes. And recently, we found a female, and our hope is to bring the two of them together to save their species.
Blu
Oh. Well, yeah, sure. When can she come over?
Tulio
Oh, no, no, no. She is in Brazil. Blu must come to Rio de Janeiro.
Rio? Brazil?
Blu
Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I never let Blu out of my sight. He needs me.
Tulio
Oh, no. You... you misunderstood. It's all arranged. You will be with him every stop of the way. And I will be with you.
Um, look, I know you're doing your job, but I can't... Well, Blu is very particular, and we have our little routine here, and we're not big on travel. Heck, he doesn't fly.
Tulio
But, of course he can fly. [takes Blu and inspects him] He's a perfect specimen.
Blu
Uh, what are you doing?
Tulio
Don't worry. Their natural instincts always take over.
Wait! Wait, wait! No! No!
Blu
Tulio
Well, almost always.
Blu!
Blu
What kind of doctor are you?
Are you okay?
Tulio
Perhaps he's too domesticated.
It was very nice of you to stop in and squawk around and throw my bird, but now it's time for you to go.
Tulio
Well, I... I'm very sorry. I... I'm very sorry, but... wait, wait. Linda. Linda. [Linda walks him out of the shop] This could be our last chance.
Have a safe flight. [sighs]
Tulio
Linda, please, listen to me. If we don't do this, his whole species will be gone. [He throws his business card through the door post flap] Just think about it.
