Well, thanks for keeping us dry anyway, Ellie.
Which one's the front?
Oh, boy.
Is this step three or is this step five? There. All done. That's for you. [the pole catapults the tent cover in the air, then it plummets down the cliff] Oh, tents are hard.
Wait, aren't you super wilderness guy with the GPMs and the badges?
Yeah, but... Can I tell you a secret?
No!
Alright. Here goes. [quickly] I've never actually built a tent before. There, I said it!
You've been camping before, haven't you?
Well... never outside.
Well, why didn't you ask your dad to help build you a tent?
Ah, I don't think he wants to talk about this stuff.
Why don't you try him sometime? Maybe he'll surprise ya.
Well, he's away a lot. I don't see him much.
He's gotta be home sometime.
Well, I call often... but... Phyllis told me I bug him too much.
Phyllis? You call your own mother by her first name?
Phyllis isn't my mom.
Oh...
But, he promised me he would come to the Wilderness Explorer Ceremony and pin on my Assisting the Elderly badge. So, he can show me about tents then, right?
Hey, why don't you get some sleep? Don't want to wake up the traveling flea circus.
Mr. Fredricksen, Dug says he wants to take Kevin prisoner. We have to protect her. [yawns] Can Kevin go with us?
All right, she can come.
Promise you won't leave her?
Yeah.
Cross your heart?
Cross my heart. [to himself] What have I got myself into, Ellie?
