S Samson
[first lines]
So there I was, face to face with the biggest, meanest leopard on this side of the Serengeti, and...
You roared so loud, his spots flew clean off. Dad, I've heard this like a billion times.
S Samson
Uh, do you know the one where I made the laughing hyenas...
S Samson
The croc attack?
S Samson
All right, Mr. Smart Guy. Here's one I know you haven't heard. It all started in the little place I like to call... The Wild.
So, what did you do next?
S Samson
That's when I gave them the roar.
S Samson
Hold on a sec. I only thought it was over. But they had the secret weapon. He was the largest wildebeest I've ever seen. He was 14 feet tall!
S Samson
I meant 1,401 feet tall!
S Samson
And he had two... No, four of the largest horns I'd ever seen. This breath was red hot! I mean, green. And he hated the environment. To pull this off, I knew I was gonna have to dig deep, deeper than I ever had before. So I swallowed my fear, sucked in the largest breath I could.
S Samson
Well, let him have it! Roar, son!
[Ryan had accidentally caused a stampede at a curling game. Samson angrily glares at him] [nervously]
I told you I'd come to the game. [chuckles]
S Samson
[enraged]
You think this is funny? You just endangered everyone in the zoo!
S Samson
For what? Chasing the Gazelles or costing us the game? All you do is sit up in your tree and sulk!
S Samson
I mean, what is it? What's the problem? Is all of this because you can't roar?
S Samson
[Everyone gasps, Ryan looks hurt. Samson's eyes widen in worry about what he angrily said to him.]
Ryan, I didn't mean that.
You know what I'm doing when I'm sulking up in my tree? I'm thinking how great it would be if Samson the Wild wasn't my father.
S Samson
Huh? Ryan, I… I didn't…
'Cause it would make being Ryan the Lame a whole lot easier. [angrily runs off]
S Samson
Ryan, I'm sorry. Ryan! Please don't… leave.
[shows up]
Bye, Ryan! Thanks for coming to the game. And you were worried he wouldn't show up.
TD Truck driver
OK, they're all loaded up! You don't think I know? Let's get movin'!
[Ryan is kidnapped and loaded onto a semi-trailer truck.]
I change my mind! I don't wanna go! Help!
S Samson
[Sam hears his son calling for help.]
Ryan?
[Sam runs past his friends.]
Sam?
[They follow after Samson and investigate.]
Dad!
Dad! Don't let them take me! No!
S Samson
[Everyone watched as Ryan was taken away.]
Benny, we need that truck followed.
S Samson
Get me... the pigeons.
H Hamir
Aaahh! I am wanting snake eyes! Come on, baby. Come on, just throw it. Aaahh? Hamir! You are the great loser of all time! What offerings must I make, I wonder?
Hamir! Hamir! Get a grip on yourself!
H Hamir
Aaahh! Benny! I am needing till Friday before I am paying you back!
No, no. It's Ryan. He's in one of those green boxes and they took him away in a truck! We've got to find him!
[talking about a sewer system]
Eww! What is this stinky place?
S Samson
…appears to be a human bathing area.
You mean humans don't lick themselves clean? Disgusting!
Oh, they're hopeless. It is hard to believe they are the top of the food chain.
I can't imagine beginning the day without licking myself.
S Samson
Think. What did Benny say? Couple of lefts, couple of rights… [sighs] Bridget, can you see the green lady?
I'm looking, I'm looking, but I can't see over anything for a change.
How far are you away? You in a different continent? Ow! Is that you, Larry?
You're a very furry snake.
S Samson
Guys, shh. We don't want to draw attention to ourselves.
I'm gonna throw up! I'm gonna throw up! I'm gonna throw up!
Not to nitpick, but shouldn't you be tearing them to shreds?
S Samson
All part of the plan. This maneuver's known as the Serengeti Slip. Page ten of the Predator's Playbook.
Are we in the right place?
Any place without two hilarious alligators seems a move in the right direction.
Sam! Do you see anything up there?
[seeing the Statue of Liberty]
Well, well, well. There she is, like Hamir said.
And it's sunrise, which means we're a tad short on time.
S Samson
Guys, look. We know the box Ryan's in is green. It's gotta be around here somewhere, so I need you to…
Yeah. So we should shout out if we see a box that looks exactly like the ones over there.
C Camo
Our names aren't important.
C Cloak
I'm Cloak, he's Camo. We're covert agents. [gets hit by Camo] Ow!
F Flamingos
Did too! Did not! Did too! Did not!
F Fergus
Out of my way, you bum! There's that moth-eaten koala!
I've told you flamingos a hundred times, walk.
F Fergus
How about an autograph?!
F Flamingo
[kicks Nigel up a tree branch and falls]
Birds! Find the string on his back! [flamingos attack Nigel] So you're havin' a really nice day!
S Samson
Off my co-captain, now.
F Fergus
Eh, sorry, Samson. [grunts]
I can't even roar. How would you even know I'm there?
S Samson
So you really think it dropped an octave?
Absolutely. Hmph. What the heck is an octave?
Mm. Cholesterol. I'll stick with the nuts. [grunts]
S Samson
I don't know what his problem is, Benny. He's 11, but he's still roaring at a nine-year-old level.
Little help here, Sammy? You know what? Maybe you're setting the bar too high, um, with all those stories about Samson the Wild.
S Samson
Hey, he's always loved those stories! They inspire him.
OK, OK. I'm not gonna argue with someone who can use my tail as dental floss. Oh, Sammy, you got something right there.
S Samson
Oh, sorry, Benny.
S Samson
Those boxes are bad news. Stay away.
S Samson
Listen, I know you're frustrated, but a lion finds his roar…
I'm… I'm so tired of hearing that, Dad!
Lastly, that is the ugliest baby I've ever seen!
S Samson
Benny, stealing candy from a baby?
Stealing is such a strong word. I prefer "liberating".
S Samson
Girls, put him down.
Nigel, get your paws off my girlfriend!
Benny, I am not your girlfriend!
We cannot lose to flightless birds!
S Samson
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. No one is losing anything around here, as long as we stay focused. By the way, has anyone seen Ryan?
Oh, oh, I know. Maybe he's sulking 'cause he lives in his father's shadow and he roars like a school girl.
S Samson
Hey! Hey, Ryan. Listen, I'm heading down to the game. I'm gonna see you there, right? Come on, Ryan, we need you. You're our biggest fan.
R Rhino
Yo, Samson! Ha, I'm your number one fan, man! Whoo!
S Samson
Thanks, man! Right back at ya!
S Samson
Ryan, listen. About this afternoon, I was just trying...
Dad, fine. I'll go to your game, all right?
S Samson
OK. I'll, uh... see you there, then.
H Hyrax
[embarrassed]
Aaahh! Doesn't anyone ever knock anymore?
S Samson
Hey, where's my son? Did he come through here?
H Hyrax
Yeah, now that I think about it, he did come through here. [turns to the toilet] Hello? Come out of there, baby lion, your dad's here! Well, what do you know, it's a whole pride of lions down here!
S Samson
Hold on, Larry, do that again!
S Samson
Whatever you just did, but the opposite!
But I don't know my opposites!
S Samson
No, Larry, like this!
S Samson
I improvised. Now jump!
S Samson
We're leaving, Larry! Whoa!
