EU ST ACE GRUNT S} - But creepy stuff happens in Nowhere.
- It's up to Courage to save his new home. - (SCREAMING)
Stupid dog! You made me look bad!
Yo, Auntie. What's up?
The source of all your power's checking out?
Oh, no. That's your magic silkworm.
It sure is transcending this life.
Bye-bye, magic silkworm.
Yep, your power is draining away.
The people will sense that you're vulnerable.
That is the only way to contact the magic silkworm.
You got to use the bones of someone truly innocent.
Okay, Auntie.
I'll find you someone truly innocent.
Can you believe it, Eustace?
The Great Wall of China.
Big deal.
"The longest structure ever made.
"One of mankind's great wonders."
But it's just a wall. Ain't got no door in it.
Ain't got no windows.
Ain't holding up no ceiling.
You should try to see the beauty.
Watch where you're going, you fool!
Hey, lady with innocent soul.
I be your tour guide, show you Great Wall.
We've seen enough already.
A tour would be lovely.
Could you take us up to the top?
I take you up all right.
Oh, my!
Big, stupid, dopey, idiot wall!
It don't keep out no mosquitoes, or squirrels,
or stupid neighbors coming to borrow sugar.
It's a wall.
Wall-to-wall wall.
What a lovely castle you have here, and what a comfy hammock.
But if you don't mind, it's a bit tight around the ankle.
I loosen your ankles when I remove your bones.
Oh, my! Must be a local custom.
De-boning begins!
No!
She say, "Who dares to challenge the will of the empress?"
Huh?
And how will you pay for the soup, stranger?
Huh?
Hmm.
You have a great journey ahead of you
that you must make to overcome your foes
and get back what is yours, your Muriel.
The noodles never He.
Now go.
No, my friend. It is not a portal.
Your journey begins there.
To defeat the tiger, you must enter the jaws of the tiger.
No!
Yummy.
Beat it, kid.
Mmm.
And now you must learn your first lesson,
to relax completely In the face of danger.
You must concentrate on peaceful images.
Oh.
Heave, ho! - (TIGER GROANS)
You have learned your first lesson well.
Two more lessons await on the rest of your journey.
That is one stupid, courageous dog.
Hey, dog-
Why don't you all give this jug here a blow?
Poison darts?
They be music haters!
Uh-Oh!
SAGE". Lesson number two.
Use your enemy's force.
- Oh. - (DARTS WHOOSHING)
Use your enemy's force against him.
Oh...
Blegh!
You have learned to make peace with danger.
Now you have the power.
It tickles a wee bit, this acupuncture.
This not acupuncture. This de-boning.
I taking out your bones.
Hi-yah!
Ooh!
Oh, no!
(GASPS) The good empress back to reclaim throne.
I not carry out bizarre torture for evil empress.
Not de-boning, re-boning. (LAUGHING NERVOUSLY)
Oh, how lovely.
Because of you, peace and harmony are returned to our kingdom.
Yay!
Oh, Courage.
Who could fail to see the beauty of this magical land?
Mmm. Yeah.
Magical. (LAUGHS)
Eustace?
Are you listening to me?
Can you go to the store and pick me up a bottle of vinegar?
Eustace? Vinegar!
Vinegar!
Eustace Bagge!
Ahh! (WHIMPERS)
Eustace!
(MUMBLING) What?
Finally!
Eustace, can you go to the store and pick me up a bottle of vinegar?
Why don't you leave me alone? (MUTTERING ANGRILY)
Get out of my way, woman!
Is that the only thing you have to say to me?
Nope.
I'm hungry! Where's my food?
Eustace, I don't think you're being very polite.
Ha! Who cares what you think?
I think you'd care what I think.
I'd care what you think
if you said something worth thinking about!
- I think you're stubborn! - Mmm-hmm.
Don't care!
- And I think you're being very nasty! - Mmm-hmm!
Don't care!
You're blocking me TV!
Darn TV-blocking woman!
I've had it with you not caring what I think or say!
They should make a remote that shuts off people!
Don't worry.
I'm shutting myself off.
I'm not speaking anymore. Listen to the TV all you want.
You won't be hearing from me again.
Sorry, Courage.
My voice isn't welcome in this house, so I'm keeping my thoughts to myself.
Huh?
What? I wasn't listening.
Finally a little peace and quiet.
Hey, stupid dog. Muriel talking yet?
Mmm-mmm.
Well, go get her to talk, dog.
I want to know if she's gonna make me breakfast!
Ooh! (GRUNTS)
wens)
I can't believe I got to buy me own breakfast.
This is Dr. Vindaloo. You sick?
The big lady is silent?
Ow'.!
She must be the one to explain the problem to me.
Ouch!
Put big lady on phone.
- (TRIMMER WHIRRING) - If patient cannot describe problem to me,
I cannot help, cannot help at all.
Ouch!
If the silent one won't speak, you need more than a doctor to help.
You need magic.
(CHUCKLES) That's a good one.
Ouch!
Must hang up now.
Your Muriel will not speak because of the stupid one?
What is it I can do?
Okay, I will unleash forces
which can only be stopped by the sound of your Muriel's voice.
Huh?
These are powerful forces.
Very powerful.
I will make a spell
from deep below the planet's shell.
Deeper than the deepest well.
May forces rise to break the ground.
And cause your Muriel to sound.
Okay!
Uh, uh, uh.
There's more.
If your Muriel won't speak...
much havoc will these forces wreak.
Or, in other words, it will not be pretty.
So it begins.
If I were you, I would get to your Muriel before it does.
I can provide speedy transportation for a fee.
Phew!
Don't you have anything bigger?
It will have to do.
Oh!
Watch where you're going, you fool!
Ooh!
(IN MURIEL'S VOICE) I'm talking now.
And the sound of my voice will save the farm from getting destroyed!
Will you quit that stupid hippie music?
I'm trying to watch TV!
wens)
No!
I asked you to stop playing that stupid... Huh?
Oh...
COURAGE'. Muriel!
(GASPS) Courage!
Courage, are you okay?
I thought I was going to lose you.
Did I stop it with my voice?
Mmm-hmm.
I guess what I say does matter.
At least to a huge, ugly creature.
And to you.
Yay!
Aw, Courage. I'll never stop talking again.
And another thing, Eustace.
So, from now on, when I talk, you listen!
Got it?
I said, is that clear?
(MUFFLED) Mmm-hmm.
Stupid Dog!
