Underground Lair

Blowhole: "OK, Private. Here's the plan. I've been spying on Skipper for 2 years now. He'll be strong. He's gonna be smart. You, however, look just sweet and innocent enough to trick him into following you. Understand?"

Private: "Yes, but, how do I do that?"

Blowhole: "You'll figure it out when bạn see them."

Private: "What does he look like?"

Blowhole: *shows him picture* "This is who your looking for. He will be with 2 other penguins. I don't care if they come too. I can find something to do with them."

Private: "Aye."

Blowhole: "It's time. Bring them to me. Do not fail."

Private: "I shan't fail you, Doctor."

Blowhole: "Excellent."

Private: *turns & leaves*

4 Hours Later...

Private: *spots trio* There they are. *spots short cliff* I know just what to do...

Skipper: "So where do we go from here?"

Rico: "I dunno..."

Kowalski: "I heard the humans talking about some Zoo in Central Park. They đã đưa ý kiến that the động vật there get fed each day, & other humans can't touch them."

Skipper: "I don't know about that. How do we know it's safe? They are humans."

Kowalski: "We need to start over somewhere. I don't see what other choice we have."

Skipper: *sigh* "I suppose. Rico?"

Rico: *shrugs & nods head slowly*

Skipper: "So how do we get to this zo--"

Distant Voice: "Hey! Is anyone there?! Could somebody help me!?"

Skipper: "Roll out men!"

*Skipper, Rico, & Kowalski follow the sound of the voice*

Voice: "Help! Hurry!"

*penguins see a chim cánh cụt lying on the ground in pain*

Skipper: "Hey, are bạn OK?"

Penguin: "I slipped off that small cliff & hurt my ankle. It hurts real bad! bạn have to help me! Please!"

Skipper: "It's OK, just calm down. What's your name, soldier?"

Penguin: "Private. Who are bạn 3 supposed to be? And why are bạn all on your own?"

Skipper: "I'm the Skipper, we've all had...issues. It's a long story. Kowalski! Analysis on that ankle!"

Kowalski: "On it, Skipper." *looks at ankle*

Private: "Ow! Be careful...uh...what did bạn say your name was?"

Kowalski: "Kowalski. I need bạn to be very still."

Rico: "HIII! I Rico!!"

Private: "Um, is he OK?"

Skipper: "Yeah, he's got a...gift. Rico!"

Rico: *hacks up firework*

Private: O.O *looks at Skipper*

Skipper: "Yeah, bạn get used to it. He's into the kablamo thing."

Kowalski: "Rico! Do bạn have anything I could rap this up in?"

Rico: *hacks up roll of gauze*

Private: "Where exactly does he get this stuff?"

Kowalski: "He snagged a few things when he was watching the humans set off the fireworks. He didn't know what he'd use them for though."

Rico: "KABLAMO!"

Kowalski: "Done. Can bạn stand?"

Private: "I'll try." *slowly stands, but Kowalski helps him support his left side* "Thanks."

Skipper: *finds stick & hands it to Private* "Here. Use this to support yourself. How did bạn get here, soldier?"

Private: *he had this story planned out, so he spoke without hesitation* "My dad passed before I was born. My mum died last week. I had no where else to go. I just started walking. No real destination in mind. Speaking of...Where are bạn all headed?"

Skipper: "We need to find a way to get to this zoo in Central Park. Only thing is, we don't know how to get there, nor which way to go."

Private: "Hey, I know where we can find a boat."

Skipper: "What's a boat?"

Private: "It's how humans transport over water. I guess they're just too lazy to swim."

Skipper: "Where can we find this, boat?"

Private: "Just let me lead the way."

Skipper: "OK. Roll out men."

Private: That's right bạn amateurs. Just follow me...
