Original subtitles

- Hey, morning, Peach. Here's your coffee.

Made some hotcake batter.

- Thanks, Dad.

- How's it going?

- He say anything to you?

- Uh, grunted a few times.

It could've been "good morning,"

now that I think of it.

- Zach! Breakfast.

You seen Spence?

- No, I have not.

Hey, there you are.

Looking good, Spence, looking good, my boy.

It's breakfast time, get your clothes on.

- So, you looking forward to camp?

Zach. You excited about camp?

Anyway, um, I gave your skateboard away,

and um,

I sold you to a traveling circus,

as it would be, it's very interesting group of people,

I'm sure you'll get a long great. Zach.

-Zach. - What?

- Are you okay?

- Me? I'm... I'm fine.

- I know how hard this is.

- I'm fine.

Really.

You can talk to me, Zach.

I miss him, too.

I just want Dad.

Hey, all hands on deck.

Ah, magnificent breakfast, if I do say so myself.

- I'm out. I'm go check out town.

- Take your brother with you. - What?

Why can't I stay here with you and Grandpa...

The last thing I need

is him tagging along while I'm

trying to check out the town. - You heard me.

You go together like the brothers you are.

Or you can stay here and help me unpack boxes.

What's it gonna be?

- Let's go, Spence.

Would you hurry up?

Grandpa's safety never takes a vacation.

Mm. Mm-hmm.

Common, Spence.

Hey, wait up.

- I'm worried about them. - Oh, they'll be all right.

-They've been through so much,

and Zach doesn't talk to anyone.

- Well, look, he just needs a little time is all.

It's only natural.

- And Spence, he's,

he... - Just a late bloomer.

It'll be all right, honey.

I promise.

- Hey, nice skating, man.

Why don't you take a seat?

- Thanks.

- So, you new here?

- Yeah, actually. I just moved.

- Cool.

And uh, what about him?

- That's my little brother, Spence.

- What's with all the body armor, kid?

- Grandpa's safety never takes a day off.

Grandpa's safety.

- I'm Zach. - Dean.

And, uh, this is Jimmy.

And that's my girl, Rosemary.

She doesn't know it yet.

- Wait till camp. You'll see.

- Camp Istrouma? - Yeah. You going, too?

What cabin you in? - I don't know.

I'm guessing you guys skate.

Every day.

Dean here is the best... no offense.

What's your favorite move?

- I really like the trick where you...

- Watch it, kid!

- I didn't mean to.

- Don't worry, I'll find a way to get you back.

You going to Camp Istrouma too, spaz?

You're welcome to stay at our cabin,

but make sure he's not with you.

- Well, what that poor old bike ever do to you?

Lemonade?

Hey.

Tough day, huh?

I know just the thing.

- Are you sure this is the right way?

- Can't you smell it?

Hey, now look, feast your eyes, huh?

Take a look, huh?

Ain't she a beaut?

Come on, let's go catch the evening meal.

Okay, we're gonna be real quiet now.

Don't let 'em know we're here.

Hey, Spence?

You all right there, partner?

- Huh? What?

- You all right?

- What? Yeah.

So, tell me again whose boat this is?

- Belongs to my dear friend, Eugenia Boon.

Known her for years.

She's been sweet on me since we were in high school.

But, uh, I'm playing hard to get.

- And she doesn't,

well, you know...

keep any pets or anything like that in her lake, right?

Pets?

- Yeah, you know like, large aquatic things?

- Can't say I'm aware of any, other than the fish,

and there are some sons of guns in this here hole.

Well, look, I suppose we can stay on the dock if you want.

- It's... It's okay. - That's my boy.

All right. Ah.

Here we go.

Attaboy, take a seat right in the middle there.

Off we go.

Avast, matey.

Arg.

What a day.

It is true science that a good fishin'

always cures what ails ya.

I ever tell you the story of the men on the boat

when the big storm came in?

- I don't think so.

- Well, see, this man was taking a bit of a catnap

in a fishing boat with his friends,

after a long day of work, mind ya,

when......just like that

this storm came upon them,

wind wailing, whipping the boat

long ways, sideways, every which way.

Waves knocking against them, big as houses.

Knocking against them one after the other.

- Sounds awful.

- It surely was.

Now these men started getting scared, really scared,

because, you see, they'd forgotten

who was sleeping in the boat.

- Wait a minute. I think I remember this one.

Was it Jesus?

- Bingo.

- So why were they scared?

- Exactly, my boy. Why, indeed?

He was right there with them.

- Whoa. - Whoa!

Fish on! Whoa-ho!

- What do I do? - Reel him in. Reel in.

- Grandpa, I can't. You take it.

- Of course you can, I believe in you.

Now, believe in yourself, boy,

or you'll be taking a dip with that monster

real soon, come on.

Good! You got it. Reel him in. - I can't.

- C'mon, you can, of course you can.

Just have faith, huh?

Bring him in, bring him in closer. Whoa!

Man, look at that, look at that.

Ha-ho.

That is dinner, my boy.

I say we celebrate, huh?

Let's take a dip, just the two of us.

- In the lake?

- Unless you know a better spot?

- I, I...

- Well, look, you can just,

you can keep that jacket on,

it'll float you like a cork.

- Hey. Norman. - Hey, look.

- Norman Robertson, you have worked my final nerve,

now you get over here.

- Morning, Eugenia.

You look lovely as ever on this glorious day.

- Norman, I told you I would call the sheriff

if you did this again, and do not think I won't.

- Aye-aye, Captain. Ha!

- I'll just park it on the other side of the lake

like you asked.

- Norman!

- It's always best to do as a lady asks.

- Norman! - Okay.

Ohh!

Lord, we thank you for our family,

our health, and our bountiful blessings,

especially this fine fish in front of us.

May it be nourishing to our bodies. Amen.

- Amen. - Amen.

- Mmm. Yum. - Looks great.

- So, um, did you bugs have a good day?

Settling in okay? Hmm?

Did you make any new friends?

- You're looking at him.

- Okay, how about you, Zach, did you make any new friends?

- He made several.

- Well that's good, right?

And, and, I'm sure you will too, at camp, right?

- Spence, the fish is already dead, you can't kill it twice.

Yeah, it's called the Istrouma Games,

and I'm gonna make sure my team wins.

They had that way back when I was there.

Not so easy as you might think.

Can't just be good, you have to be good together.

- I can work together. - Yeah, it takes more than one.

- Where's your brother?

- What? Do I have to be his keeper?

- Go get him.

- Stay in your saddle there,

lone camper, I'll get him.

- Thanks, Grandpa.

- Spence?

What's happening, champ?

- I think I have Legionnaires' Disease.

I probably need to be quarantined.

- Mm,

sounds bad.

Must've picked it up in Africa last time you were there

spreading the good news.

Tough business, missionary work.

- Grandpa, I don't want to go to camp.

Why can't I just stay here with you and Mom?

Please?

- Look Spence, nothing warms my heart more than

being with family.

- Perfect, I'll stay. Good idea.

- It is, but it's also a good idea for you to go

and meet some friends.

The boys...and girls

you meet at Istrouma might

end up being just like family to you.

Shucks, I met Miss Eugenia there,

'bout 200 years ago.

- But I'm not all talky like you are,

or big like Zach,

and I can't make people like me.

I'm gonna end up all alone out there,

and there's a lake.

- What if-

when Dad was...

Grandpa, I'm scared. - I know, look.

Don't make them like you... let them like you.

And when they do, and they're your family,

being scared won't be so bad.

For you and for them.

- Easy for you to say.

You're not afraid of anything.

Oh, really?

You met Miss Eugenia, didn't you?

Oh, yeah.

- 'Kay, you ready? - Yup.

- Zach, I can count on you, right?

- What? Sure.

- Honey, I need you to promise me

you're gonna look after your brother.

- Mom, he keeps me from making friends.

And if I don't know anybody, how can I help him?

- You know him,

and honey, he needs you now, more than ever.

Please? Promise me?

- I promise.

- Okay. Good.

- Wonder what verse Pop's reading him right now?

- Of course I knew who he was.

- Yeah, but you don't know what people thought about him

before he was famous.

They thought he was crazy.

He was this tiny little guy.

- Smaller than me? - Oh, half your size.

And Goliath was a giant, I reckon, three times Zach's size.

And everybody thought what you thought,

little guy was gonna get smashed.

- Instead...

- He got really lucky?

- No, no, not luck.

He went out there with no armor, all alone.

Except he wasn't alone, he had faith.

And he had some stones from the river,

and while Goliath was laughing at him,

'cause he was so small,

he slung one of those stones and hit Goliath

right between the eyes and down he went.

- I need me some stones.

- You need you some faith.

And that, too, happens right between the eyes, inside. Hm?

In the mind.

Here.

Let this be a reminder.

- What is it?

- A little something from me to you.

But, uh, you have to promise

not to open it till you get there, deal?

- Okay, guys, I will see you in two weeks.

Take care of each other.

- Probably won't even recognize you two.

- Hey guys, it's great to see ya...both.

Oh, hi, I'm Dean, I met your sons yesterday.

I can't tell you how happy I am

they're gonna be at camp.

- That's so nice of you to say.

I know Spence was a little worried,

but it's nice to know you have a friend.

- Oh, my pleasure, ma'am. And don't worry,

we'll take great care of Spaz... Spence!

Spence.

- Ready, Zach? - Yeah.

- Take care, Zach. - Bye.

- Bye, Zach.

- Well he seemed nice.

- Uh, yeah, he's great.

- Spence, remember where to get him, hmm?

- Right in between the eyes. - In the mind, inside.

- I love you. - Love you, too.

- Go get 'em, tiger.

Don't you worry.

OK, perhaps a little.

- Hey buddy, we're just about loaded up, you ready?

So, what's your name, stud?

- Spencer. Spencer Neil.

- Spencer, I'm Garret, nice to meet ya.

Your gonna love Camp Istrouma.

It is, it is a great time, code name Camp Cool Kids.

You excited?

- Yeah, cool kid.

That's me.

- Hey, you definitely seem like a cool kid to me,

you're just not the loud kinda cool.

In fact, how about we make your official nickname

Cool Cat, what do you think of that?

- Cool cat?

Yeah, I guess that's cool.

- Excellent, we're on the third bus. Let's do it.

- C'mon.

- Hey, wait for Adam!

- Nice to meet you, Charlie.

Hey guys, how ya doing?

You're in the right line here?

Good, good.

Yup, that's you, bud, go for it.

All right, listen up, campers.

Everyone needs to find their bags

and check into your assigned lodges.

I repeat, into your assigned lodges.

- How's it going, pal?

- Hear me, people?

- Hey guys. - Hey firefly.

What's going on, bud?

Good to see you guys. good to see ya.

All right, okay. Yeah.

Sup, dude, good to see you again.

C'mon, guys!

Move it, people, move it, move it!

- Hey, watch where you're going.

- Hey, sorry, uh, nice to, um, hey.

- Hey yourself, and don't sweat it, there's no harm done.

- I'm Rosemary. -I'm Zach,

um, I'm friends with Dean.

So, um, maybe I'll, I'll see you around or?

- Yeah, maybe.

- Okay, cool.

- All right.

- Cool. - Okay.

I'll see you then.

- Bye now.

- Hey, Rosemary. - Dean.

- What? - Don't "what" us.

- You totally ran into him on purpose.

- I don't know what you're talking about.

Right over there.

- Hey, what cabin are you in? - The purple cabin.

The purple cabin.

Yup, right over there. - Okay.

- Cool Cat.

There ya are, bud.

So what cabin you in?

- I don't know.

- Oh. You got any friends here that you

signed up to room with?

Well, um, your brother's here, right?

Are you with him?

- I don't think so.

- Not a problem, um, we will just...

- He can be in the red cabin if he wants.

- That's a perfect idea. What do ya think of that?

- Sure, thanks.

- All right, uh, Little John, this is Cool Cat.

Cool Cat, this is Little John.

Little John, you show Cool Cat the ropes for me?

- Sure. - Awesome. Thanks, bud.

- You're welcome. - Gonna be armadillos this year, bro.

- Yup.

So where's your luggage, man?

It's right there.

- Oh, let's go get it.

So, "Cool Cat", huh?

- Yeah. Why "Little John"?

Because "Romeo" was taken.

- C'mon, we're in Cabin 6. I'll show you around,

and then we're gonna meet the boys,

or as I call them, "the homies".

All right, you see that building right there?

It's the absolute most important one in the whole camp.

- Chapel?

- No dude, mess hall. Duh.

- What's with the glasses?

- Well, I don't really technically need 'em at all,

but I kinda see myself with them,

you know what I'm saying?

- Yeah. - Totally.

- The gang is back together.

Sup, Copper.

- Yeah and, uh, we always have the coolest cabin.

And we always win the Istroumia Games.

The official ones and the other ones.

Yeah, we do.

Up top.

- Cool. Um, the other ones?

- Yeah, you know, um, the games where we show the dweebs

just how dweebish they actually are.

- Hmm.

- Uh, here, you can take this one here. Hey man, move.

- Sorry, man.

- So, who else lives in your cabin?

- Just some guys. They're kind of cool in a, you know, way,

if they don't eat you that is.

Food gets a little tight around here.

After you.

- You're not Little John.

- Ha! Try over here.

- Hey, I've seen you before.

- So what can you do?

- I don't know. Not much.

- Little J, how's he supposed to help us?

- I don't know.

- Least he won't make us any worse.

Oh, sorry. I'm Upchuck. You'll see why soon enough.

- Spence.

- Only "Cool Cat".

- Hey Cool Cat. I'm Eric...

- And I'm Allen, but they call us Tater.

- And Tot. - We're twins.

- Obviously.

And this unusual specimen is photinus pyralis or...

- Firefly, smart guy.

Know why they call me "Firefly"?

Because I'm the guy who lights the fire.

The fire.

Please don't tell me you didn't tell him about the fire.

- Aye, sorry.

- It's a big kick-off event tonight.

There's snacks sometimes,

It's basically the reason why I come to Camp Istrouma.

Upchuck and his snacks.

You do not want to see him eat a burrito.

- Cool. So, what do we do 'til the fire?

- Well, I suggest you...

Defend thyself.

Down, Firefly.

Don't make any sudden moves, just act natural.

Hello ladies.

Lovely evening for a fire, right?

Hi, I'm Jen.

You were the guy at the...

Yeah, he was so mad about that.

- Are you all right?

Okay.

Well, anyway it was nice to meet you,

even if you didn't tell me your name.

- They were like... - Totally talking to us.

- Was that the greatest thing that's ever happened?

They were standing right next to us,

and we're right next to them.

In the same place. So amazing.

And you totally didn't tell us you knew how to speak "girl".

- Yeah. - I didn't really say anything.

- Yeah, but they totally understood you.

- They did?

- Mhm. - Totally.

- Well, we got girls that like us.

At least it felt like a dream come true.

Yeah.

- Campers, welcome to the annual

opening bonfire at Camp Istrouma.

We're gonna get this bad boy lit in just a second here,

but first, we're gonna hear a little opening words

from our wonderful camp Director Hayworth.

- You rock!

- Welcome.

Camp Istrouma is the top-rated camp in the state.

And do you know why?

she's looking at you.

- Me? - Yeah.

- She is.

Who cares, look at the girl next to her.

That face.

Who, Cody?

- You ma'am.

- I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you.

- You, ma'am!

That's right. That's right.

Now, if one of you should have a problem while you're here...

- Is it me or is there something seriously wrong

with those guys?

- It is kinda creepy how they keep staring.

- And you can be assured that if I have to leave my cozy

little cabin to come address one of your issues,

well, let's just say...

- The fun totally stops, like seriously, like, one time

when I was in high school...

- Holy. - Guacamole.

- Now she's waving.

- What do I do?

- Well, wave back, duh.

- Really?

- Seems logical.

- But, then... - I'm gonna try.

- I'm not your friend!

I'm your camp director.

And if you leave me in peace for the next two weeks,

we'll have a wonderful experience.

Thank you.

You rock!

- Isn't she great, guys?

All right, so the moment of truth is upon us.

Firefly, where ya at?

- I'm here. - Come on, bud.

Firefly is our resident firestarter.

Sir, if you would do the honors, please?

Safety first.

- Firefly. - Firefly. Firefly.

- Good job, sir.

Thank you very much.

Glad to see you still got the gift, Firefly.

Okay, we have a special treat for you tonight.

In order to start this party off correct,

we have the wonderfully talented Spencer Kane.

- Everybody, up, up, up.

We don't want to be the last one's to the swim test.

C'mon.

Swim test?

- Yeah, man.

One must tread water for 10 minutes

and then swim across the lake.

It's so you can use the lake during free time

without having to be in the pen.

- The pen?

- A little fish pen. - Where the little fishies have to swim.

- Where the kids who don't know how to swim have to stay.

- It's easy, bro, don't worry about it.

All right, you guys ready for this?

- Let's go.

- Come on, not now. - C'mon.

Okay, you guys, swim.

- I can feel their little beady eyes on me.

- Hey, guys, I'll be in in a second.

- See, you jump off it, and then, whoosh,

the other person goes flying into the lake.

- Pretty cool, right?

- Yeah, that's... that's the bomb.

- And then, there's a zip line too, which-

ouch!

- Sorry, didn't see ya there.

Guess I forgot to look down.

- I'm gonna...

You're gonna what, shrimp?

That's what I thought, little bug.

- Shrimp are crustaceans.

Okay, you guys are up.

- C'mon, up at the dock.

- What a dumbo.

- See you later, girls.

- All right, everybody in who wants to go in?

Anybody who doesn't want to, that's okay too.

Just head over to the benches.

Geronimo!

- C'mon, Cool Cat. Let's go.

Ba-na-na-na!

- Are you okay?

You don't have to go in if you don't want to.

- Looks like we got a scaredy chicken

too scared to go in the water.

- Stop it right now.

- We all know you can.

- C'mon. - It's warm.

- Yeah. - It's really shallow.

- It really is all right.

- What? No! - Come back!

- Spence?

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, Cool Cat. What's the rush there, buddy?

- It's not my name, let me go.

- Yeah, okay, okay, no worries, partner.

- Hey, I understand, how about you and I

just take a deep breath here, huh?

All right, you wanna talk about it?

- I hate it here. And I don't wanna go in the water,

and I can't compete in the games, and I never wanted to

come in the first place, and I wanna go home.

- You sure about that?

- Okay, all right. I understand.

Will you make me a deal though?

We're just gonna go on a walk.

We're gonna chat a little bit,

and then afterwards, if you still wanna go,

we'll go right into Director Hayworth's office,

we'll talk about your early exit.

We got a deal?

Okay, let's go. C'mon.

So tell me what's going on here.

Okay, everyone's good.

- Hey, is your brother okay?

- Who? Spence?

- Yeah, I, I think so.

- Well, should you go check on him?

- Nah, I'm sure he's fine.

He just... Let's just say he's got a unique perspective.

It gets the better of him sometimes.

- Hey, wanna race to the other side?

- Of the lake?

- Of the field.

- Go ahead. Get a head start.

- So kind of you.

- Uh, she's a junior Olympian, smart guy.

I'd catch up, if I were you.

Oh, yeah, your brother's name is Spence, right?

- Yeah.

C'mon, I find that hard to believe.

Everybody's good at something.

I'm not.

- Well, pal, I wouldn't sell yourself short just yet.

I think you could be surprised at what you'd

learn about yourself in a place like this.

Of course, you'd have to stay to find out.

- How long have you been a counselor here?

- Uh, going on seven years now.

- Wow. That's a long time.

- Yeah, and I was a camper for five years before that.

So actually, been coming here for twelve years.

- You really must like it.

- Yeah, I do, I mean this, this is a wonderful place.

It's full of great people.

I really think that you'd discover that for yourself too,

if you're willing to give it a shot.

But that's up to you.

Your brother seems to like it.

- That's because Zach's good at everything.

He's like my dad... like he was, anyway.

I'm not.

- Yeah, your mom mentioned in a note about your dad.

I'm sorry.

You wanna talk about it?

- He was brave. The bravest.

But that didn't matter in the end.

I'm not like him.

I'm afraid.

- Look pal, we're all afraid of something.

Hey, how 'bout I tell you what scares me

and then you can tell me what scares you, deal?

- What are you afraid of?

- Clowns. Hate 'em.

- Clowns? Who's afraid of a clown?

- I'll tell you who's afraid of clowns, bud.

Me, all right?

They scare the dickens out of me.

They got that weird hair and that creepy makeup

and those strange noises, I mean it's, it's awful.

- You're pulling my leg.

- No, I'm not, in fact one time when I was 10,

and I was at a neighborhood birthday party,

enjoying myself, having a grand old time when

the doorbell rang, I went downstairs, answered it

and there was a clown standing right there.

Honked his horn in my face, I passed clean out.

Gave myself a concussion, I hit the ground so hard.

Yup. All right, I told you mine, now you tell me yours.

- It's stupid.

- Hey, I'm the one that's afraid of clowns.

Let me be the judge of that.

- I'm pretty sure the Loch Ness Monster

or one of its cousins lives in your lake.

It's dumb. I know.

- No, no it's not. Nessie!

Really, I've never seen her before,

but that would be pretty cool.

I've ridden a horse before, but never a water monster.

That would be awesome, wouldn't it?

- I guess, if it had a saddle or something?

- Hey, you know what? I know just the thing.

Next time you see old Nessie out there,

you just slap a saddle on and then I bet you

she won't be so scary.

- That would be cool.

- Dude, that would be awesome!

What are ya talking about?

It would be amazing.

I'll be sure to send you a letter when I see her.

'Cause you still wanna go, right?

- Well, um, maybe not.

- Hey, it's okay,

it's okay, look, I'd hate to see ya leave,

but I don't want to like make you feel trapped

or anything like that. You just, you just think about it.

I think...

- Dude, big decision here, 'kay? Just take your time.

No big thing.

Hey but, um, remember when you take that scary thing,

and you control it and you switch it and make it silly

I think it's not gonna be so scary anymore.

- But you're afraid of clowns.

- You know what, I told you that in confidence,

so we're just gonna keep that a secret.

Between you and me, 'kay?

I'll see ya at camp, yeah?

And guys, remember,

second Timothy 1:7 says that God didn't give us a spirit of fear.

No. He gave us a spirit of power and of love

and of strong mind.

So are we gonna go out there today and be courageous?

- Yeah! - Are we gonna go out there today

- and live like lions? - Yeah!

- All right, that's a wrap, guys. Go have a great day.

Come see me if you have any questions.

- So, you guys wanna go paintballing or something?

- No. - Nah.

- C'mon, I'm feeling lucky today.

What should we do?

- I don't know.

- Um, hey Spence.

- How do you do?

- It's Cool Cat, by the way.

- Cool Cat. Cool name.

Well, I'll see you around, Cool Cat.

- Dude, she just like totally talked to you.

- What do I do?

- No idea. Girls are a bit confusing.

- So what do you guys think we're gonna have for lunch today?

- Hoping hamburgers.

- I know. - Me too.

- And some cheese fries.

- Some cheese. - Some cheese.

- Chili cheese.

What are chili cheese?!

- Watch this. Watch this.

- Hey. - Hey.

- You're more than welcome to use the lake,

but until you pass the swim test

you're gonna have to stay in the beginner's pen.

- Yes, ma'am.

- Hey, it's more peaceful down here in the pen.

- Yeah, totally, dude, right?

- C'mon, little man.

- C'mon, Spence.

- Spence. Spence.

- Spence, come back.

- Hey man, we can go on a walk later if you want.

- Whoo.

Dear Lord, bless this food

and may it nourish our bodies.

- Amen.

Yeah, and she walked up and talked to me.

- Yeah, but you gotta do something.

Food fight!

- You just hit Dean right in the face.

- Do any of you have anything to say?

Nothing?

- Well, I was gonna say that the cheeseburger

was amazing tonight.

Right on, Chef.

- Yeah, it was really...good.

Sorry, sir.

- Okay, uh, I understand that there may have been some

extenuating circumstances afoot here tonight.

As such, I am not going to be taking away your

privileges, so long, not so fast, as this place

is spotless to the chef's liking by breakfast.

Do you understand?

I said do you understand?

Yes, sir.

- Good.

- Finally.

- So you really like my cheeseburger?

- Oh yeah, man.

Uh, tasted a bit more Worsteshire this year,

but really made the flavor pop.

- Thanks. If it doesn't sit well, let me know.

I have just the thing.

- Good to know, man. Good to know.

- Hey.

- Hey yourself.

- Still upset about your loss?

- I have no idea how I'm gonna keep on living.

- Hello, Rosemary.

- Did you say hello or jello?

- I was wondering if you'd like to take a walk with me

down by the lake?

- Aw, thanks. That's really sweet of you.

But Zach already asked me.

- I did?

Y-Yeah.

So, uh, would you...

- I would. Let's go.

Are you coming?

- Huh? Yeah.

Yeah, um,

bye, guys.

- Hey, so I was thinking... - Stop.

For starters, you can't think.

And secondly, you smell, Jimmy.

- N-n-no, if you say one word to me,

I'll push you in the fire.

- Mhm.

- I think they like us.

- I do smell.

Like... - Worcestershire.

C'mon boys, I got an idea.

- I still can't believe Cool Cat bombed Dean.

- I didn't mean to.

- Don't apologize man, he don't know how cool he is.

I'm wish I hit him.

- No you don't Firefly, you do not know what you are saying.

Hey, Upchuck, did you take the trash bags out?

- Nope.

Whatever.

- I had a nice time.

- Me too.

- Okay.

- See you tomorrow?

- Yeah. I will see you tomorrow also.

- Okay.

- Hey, what's up guys?

- You'd know if you weren't busy doing your own thing.

- Did I do something wrong?

- You mean other than skipping out on your team

so you could snake Dean's girl?

- Rosemary? I didn't...

- It's cool, I mean, I literally told you to your face

that she was my girlfriend, and then you ask her out.

- I thought you were kidding about that,

and she asked me to walk.

I'm sorry, Dean.

- Did you make out with her?

- What?

No. We just, we just talked.

- Like I said, It's cool.

But it would also be cool if you laid off it

so things don't get weird.

I, I mean we are friends, right?

- Yeah. Of course we are.

- Cool. No harm, no foul.

- Now, you wanna know what we just did?

- Yeah.

- Ew. - Little J.

- Hey, its not my odor that offends.

- Ah! Someone trashed the place.

- Ugh! - Ugh!

- So it begins, guys, and so it begins.

- What's wrong with him?

Oh.

- Yeah, that's Upchuck.

- What? This is what real men smell like.

- All we do is need a shower, then you'll see our glory.

- Ew! It smells awful in there!

Oh, c'mon.

- What do you know about safety?

- Safety never takes a vacation.

- Good answer.

That means the barrel of your weapon

is always pointed down, until you're actively

trying to tag your opponent.

Once you have been tagged, you're out of the game.

I will not be the only one watching here.

So, for the sake of your mortal soul,

cheating will not be abided.

Understood?

I said understood?

Understood, sir.

Excellent.

- You, there.

While we wait for the other group,

it's a perfect opportunity to practice our war cries.

So, let's hear it.

- Huh?

- I said give me your war cry, son!

Ah!

A good war cry makes a soldier invisible.

Now, let's hear your war cry.

- Ah!

- Needs work.

You, there.

- Ahhhh!

- Now that, people, is a war cry.

- Ha. And, uh, the other group has finally shown up.

- All right, Tater and Tot, you guys flank them left.

Upchuck, you and Little John will flank them right.

- What do I do?

Me and you, we're charging the line.

- The line?

The middle?

Is, is that smart?

- No guts, no glory. You with me?

- Sure, I guess.

- Good.

Everyone, let's get ready.

And remember, men, fortune favors the bold.

Let's go!

Ow. Ouch. Ow. Ooh. Ouch. Ow.

- Should we feel bad?

I kinda feel bad.

- All's fair in love and war, man.

All's fair.

Ooh. Ouch. Ow.

- Or not. - Ahh!

- My back. - I feel like Swiss cheese.

- Ow, ow, that was bad. Ow.

- Heads up, men, just need a little work on your

war cries is all.

- I'm not sure those are as effective as you think.

- Ah. It hurts.

- Ooh. - Ah.

- That's painful. - It hurts.

- It's bad to desecrate the body of dead, right?

- Well if you guys would've just followed me

we could've beat them.

- Sorry, Firefly, but Dean and his tribe

of Neanderthals are always gonna use

us for target practice.

- Yeah. - True.

- I, Dean, King of Neanderthals.

Ooh, ah-ah. Me want to shoot you with paint.

- I, Zach, new chief of brown nosing.

Oooh yes, favorite activity,

other than look reflection and do push up.

Ooh-ah-ah.

- Is there something you wanna tell me, little bro?

- Hey Zach, it's good to see you.

And Dean, it's nice to see you too.

Good time, huh?

You certainly beat us good.

Well, we really gotta go to lunch now.

See ya guys later.

- What's the rush, it's good to see you too, Spence.

- Yeah.

- Maybe we should hang out more.

- Spence? - Hi, Annabelle.

- Hey ladies, for the record I want it to be known

I had very little to do with our current situation.

Would one of you be so kind as to find a counselor

who might assist us, preferably a large one.

Thank you very much.

- Guys, come on.

- So, you're telling me that not one of you guys remembers

how you got strung up by your underpants?

- Well I couldn't really see anything

'cause my glasses fell off.

- Must've been the wind. - Came out of nowhere.

- The wind? - Yup.

Woosh. Just like that.

- Does anybody need to go to the camp infirmary to be

- checked for wind damage? - No!

- All right, c'mon guys let's keep it movin',

Show's over, folks.

Don't worry, Cool Cat, same thing happened to me

back in the day.

Look how I turned out.

- Let's go.

- I do feel a little bad.

- Not as bad as they do.

Hey guys.

- Hi Rosemary, it's nice to see ya.

- Can I hang with y'all?

- Of course, we'd love you to.

- I, uh, I gotta go. I'll see ya guys later.

- Um, cool, uh, have fun.

- Well bye then.

- Geez, that was pretty rude.

But, uh, I'd still enjoy your company.

- Oh, bananas.

Dang. That's a great shot.

Could you do it again?

- Way to go, Cool Cat. All right, man.

Looks like you found something you're good at.

- If you do it like that, we're totally gonna win.

For the ban-na-na-nas.

- Okay, okay. We're all here, right?

And we're all here together.

Wow, let's just take a minute to reflect on that.

Okay, and how beautiful that all is.

You know, just like this so,

everybody just close your eyes.

Close your eyes, everybody. Take a deep breath in.

Take that all in.

That...is Mother Earth.

Right on. Far out, right?

So, why don't we take a second to explore

how beautiful this world is that God has given us

and everything He's put in it.

Cool? All right.

So how about somebody tell me what...

- Coreopsis grandiflorum, also known as Jethro tulip.

- Rock on, man.

Yeah, and what about, uh, that one, over there?

- That one, uh, that one's actually mystic spires.

Yeah, that's awesome. It can survive heat and drought.

My mom has that one.

She has it in this little cup, it's pretty cool.

- Really? Cool.

- You know, I am going to keep you around more often.

- So, are ya ever gonna come in the lake and go swimming?

- I've been thinking about it.

- Maybe think a little less and just do it.

- I'm not really the impulsive type.

- I get it, Cool Cat. It's who you are.

- Let's move it, people. Move it, move it, move it.

Climb those walls, boys.

And remember, everyday under the Lord's sun

is a blessing.

- You feeling blessed?

- Really blessed.

- Living the dream.

- Now what?

- Well, we could go up?

- Man, this belt is tight.

- Uh, yeah.

- Wow, look out.

- Ah. - Suckers.

- Ah!

- Back on those walls, boys.

Get back on those walls and climb towards the heavens.

C'mon, move it.

Move it, move it, move it!

That's it.

- Hey, between the two of us, the Camp Istrouma games

are ours.

- Huh, the suckers have no chance.

- Is it ready?

- Oh yeah.

- What is it?

- Oh,just a little something for tonight.

A gift.

Oh.

Stupid.

What?

- Can I make you a s'more?

- I don't eat burned marshmallows.

The inside has to be fully cooked, two pieces of chocolate

one on each side, melted.

- And right in the nick of time, Perseus shows up

and kills it.

- And then... - Hey.

What are you guys doing?

- My man Spence is teaching -

Well, it was us, right now, I mean,

about the constellations.

This guy knows it all.

- Really?

- No, I just know some.

My dad used to show me.

- Well can you show me?

- Okay, that's Cassiopeia.

That one right there.

Looks like a W. See how it goes?

- Yeah, yeah, I see it.

- Anyway, she was a queen.

- You see a lot that most people don't.

- Thanks. I think.

You see the big star on the left?

- Uh-huh.

- That's the beginning of Draco the dragon.

- The story goes... - Hey, Cool Cat.

So good to see you so comfortable.

You're back on the ground. Paintball welts are gone?

Oh, but watch out for the bugs. They itch.

C'mon.

So, you keep the marshmallow like six inches away

and constantly turn it.

Then you put the chocolate on the graham cracker

next to the fire so it can melt.

It's all about the timing.

Took me like eight tries...

and then? Nailed it, and she loved it.

- Wow, that is genius.

- You know, I think girls might be pretty cool.

I never realized that before.

- Out of all the studies I've ever read,

all of them were inconclusive.

That, my friend,

that's the real deal, that makes sense.

- Yep.

All right, let's get some sleep.

- What are we doing out here?

- Just hang on and you'll see.

- They haven't done anything to us lately.

- If you're gonna be a baby about it, go do it somewhere else.

- I'm itching.

- Me too. - Me three.

- It itches.

- What did you do? - Shh.

- Let's go to the bathroom! - Ah!

- Told ya it would work.

- C'mon. - Good job, man.

- Dude, high five. - Seriously?

- We've been itched bombed. - Yeah.

- Who did it?

- Who do ya think? - Dude, look.

- Oh, that's bad.

- Is there anything on my stomach?

- Is there anything on my arm?

- Hey, you still trying to find your underwear?

- Oh, pardon Jimmy, he's been itching to ask that.

- You guys are meanies. You know what meanies don't get?

Ba-na-nas.

What?

- Hey, how 'bout that rematch?

- I don't think so. I'm pretty tired.

- Wait hang on a minute. Can I talk to you?

- Okay, talk. What do you want?

- I just kinda wanted to say I'm sorry,

I haven't been, well you know, I've been...

- A jerk? Yeah, I know that.

I'm one of the ones you've been a jerk to.

You know, I actually thought you were a nice guy,

a guy I wanted to get to know, but you aren't that guy.

- I am that guy. - No you're not.

- You're the kind of guy who hangs up little kids by

the back of their underwear

just because you're big and strong.

You make fun of their bug bites,

and they can't do anything back.

You're that guy.

- No I'm not that guy. That's not what happened.

- Certainly looked that way to me.

- Hey.

Hey.

I've been meaning to talk to you.

- Why? So you can wipe poison ivy all over me?

- No.

That got out of hand.

- I never asked for you to protect me,

but I didn't think you would actually...

- Hey you called me a brown-noser, remember?

"Ooh, I'm Zach, hahaha."

- Because you keep kissing up to Dean,

and he's a Neanderthal.

- He's not that bad of a guy.

He just plays a little rough.

- Only because he's big and there's nothing,

and I mean nothing, we can do back.

It's not playing for the rest of us.

- I shouldn't have done it, but I did.

So, now I'm saying I'm sorry.

- That doesn't undo anything.

I don't want your apology. I don't need it.

Just like I don't need you.

- You ever get tired of playing the victim, Spence?

Or is it just easier that way,

'cause you always have an excuse?

I've had enough.

- Enough of what?

- Being a victim. I don't wanna run anymore.

- But the prey always has to run away from the lion.

It's called nature. Or science. I don't know.

- Why do we always have to be prey?

I think it's time we stand up for ourselves.

- But they're always gonna be bigger.

- And we're always gonna be weaker.

- Yeah. - Seriously.

- But we're smarter.

- Now, let me hear your war cries.

Ahhhhh!

What losers.

C'mon.

- Good for you, Spence. Good for you.

- All right, so you all know what to do?

Then let "Operation Payback" begin.

Armadillos!

- What are you doing?

- Nothing. What are you doing?

- Nothing.

- 'Kay, so we're on the same page here?

Move along.

- Whew. That was a close one.

Thanks, Chef.

- So, it says here you have to put in

some of that thingamajigs.

Now we stir.

- Lady alert. Lady alert.

Upchuck, Upchuck.

- Hey, how's the itching?

Whoa. Hey, I wasn't trying to make fun of you.

- There's been a lot of that lately.

- Yeah, but those guys don't matter.

- Easy for you to say.

No one was laughing at you.

They were laughing at us. They were laughing at me.

Do you even know what that's like?

It's what I thought.

So please, just leave me alone, okay?

- Guys, she's leaving.

- She left, whew.

You know, I think we should've made some chimichangas.

- I don't know what those are, but it's okay.

- They're like little burritos.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You, go.

- What? Why? - Go, man.

- What do ya think that is?

I don't know. A bag?

- Whoa, whoa. You open it.

- What? - Go.

We're not doing it. - I don't know what's in there.

- What is that?

- Hey, gimme that.

- Smells like brownies.

- To the coolest guy in the camp,

XOXO.

I think Rosemary wants to show my friends

how much she likes me.

Dig in, boys.

Hey, whoa, I don't know if Rosemary wanted you to have one,

but who cares.

Mm, looks like my sweetheart made us some sweets.

Aw, but you losers didn't get any. Too bad.

Move. Hurry up!

Okay, guys, let's settle in.

Is it good?

Okay guys, welcome to chapel.

Today, I want to talk to you all about forgiveness.

Forgiveness can be a really powerful thing, guys.

When you're harboring hatred

or anger, those types of feelings

can really start to eat you up inside,

and ultimately they can cause you more harm than

those that may have caused you harm in the first place.

Revenge is never the answer.

And eye for an eye is never gonna leave your heart in the right place.

Yes, Jimmy?

- I, I gotta go! Move, move!

Those aren't brownies!

- Yeah, I feel it.

- All right. Let's, let's...

Stay with me, folks, guys.

Uh, I guess they had a different kind of reflecting to do.

Anyway, all right, for those of you that are still here

I was speaking to you about forgiveness, right?

Um, really important stuff and I'm gonna tell you why.

- Hey, Spence.

- It's Cool Cat.

- No, it's not.

It's not cool to become a jerk

just because someone else was a jerk to you.

- I...I told you to leave me alone!

- Gladly.

I know how hard this has been for you.

How strong you've had to be.

It's a lot more than anyone should

be asked of at your age.

And I just want you to know how proud of you I am.

How proud your father would be.

Love, Mom.

- Hey, Cool Cat. - You mind if I join ya?

I've been looking for ya.

- Why? I'm a loser.

- Whoa, buddy. Don't say that.

So you got those older boys pretty good, didn't ya?

- Yeah, but I guess we shouldn't have.

- Aha. I thought so.

So why'd ya do it?

- I was tired of being the victim.

They're always picking on us.

- Yeah, why do you think they're always picking on you?

- Because they can.

Sure.

Yeah, but I do think that there's another reason.

I think that maybe that they're afraid.

I think that Dean actually is afraid of losing,

so that's why he's always trying to make other

people feel like a loser.

- No one wants to hang out with a loser.

- Yeah, yeah, and no one wants be alone either, pal.

In fact, you could say that we're afraid of it.

So how do you beat it?

- We got them back pretty good.

You know, you did,

but that only showed everyone that you're also afraid.

You know, what you gotta do is to put a saddle on it.

Cause this whole making fun of people business,

this is just silly.

It's hard for a silly thing to be scary, isn't it?

Except for clowns.

- I guess.

- I am gonna have to give you guys the train duty tonight

as punishment for that little stunt.

- Whatever.

- All right.

Oh, um, this is for you.

We'll see ya.

Hello Spence, my boy.

I hope this finds you well and in good spirits.

Did you open my gift? I knew you would like it.

But remember, Spence, that stone is only a reminder

that you are never alone.

You have your faith, and from that you have courage,

courage to make the right choices for the people

that will always be there for you.

- Aw, dude, I think I lost five pounds.

- Don't worry, we're gonna get them back.

- Hey, we can spray sunscreen in their

eyes at the start of the games.

- Seems like that would make winning pretty lame.

- What'd you say?

- I mean, why don't we beat them fair and square,

instead of being jerks about it?

- Is that what you told Rosemary?

That I'm a jerk?

Is that where you were right now, with her,

when you should've been with your team?

- No.

- I was, uh... - You were what?

- Reading a letter from my mom.

- Maybe this isn't the right team for you.

- Maybe not.

I don't wanna be on a team that has to cheat to win.

- I could beat you any day of the week, hotshot.

Don't make me prove it.

- Maybe I want you to.

- So that's how it's gonna be, huh?

- Yeah.

- Whatever! We don't need him.

- Well, we kind of do, seeing as

he is sort of the best at everything.

- Whoa, hold up.

You sure about this?

I mean, she seemed pretty mad at you, boy.

- No, but I have to do it.

Besides, I think I understand what girls want.

- Dude, that's impossible.

- Courage.

- Courage? That's crazy talk.

- Was that a... - Um, it was nothing.

What do you want?

- Well, I was wondering if I could talk

to you for a minute?

- About what?

- I just wanted to say, I'm sorry for what I said to you.

I was wrong and what I did was wrong.

I understand now that we're all afraid of something.

Like your inhaler... - It's okay, we're all good.

- See, I told you I knew what girls wanted.

- Hey well, you wanna play some soccer with me, Cool Cat?

- Sure.

- And you're not afraid?

- Why would I be? Let me have it.

- Ooh.

-Ow.

You okay, man?

- See, told you girls might be more complicated

than you thought.

- Yup.

I think I just need a moment.

You have funny ears.

It's okay. I've been told that too.

-I'm Sorry... -I'm Sorry...

- I'm sorry I wasn't there for you,

and I know you don't me, but I need you.

- I need you too.

What's with the bag?

- About that...

I wish we wouldn't have done that stuff to you guys,

and I'm sorry, so...

- Wait, if he's staying with us does that mean

he's gonna be on our team in the games?

- I don't know if... - Of course it does.

He can stay!

- Uh, I think we should think about all this.

- Yeah, maybe. - Give us a minute, Zach.

We have made our decision!

Spence has something to say to you.

- We all want you to stay, but...

there's just one thing.

- Yeah?

- We got punished for the things we did to you,

and you didn't get any kind of punishment.

- So? What is it?

- You're locked out.

- Me Zach. Me king of caveman.

Ooh-ooh. Ah-ah.

- Good morning, campers!

Good morning.

- You guys ready for the Istrouma games?

Before too long here, we're gonna get started,

and then, we will be able to crown not only

the winning cabin, but also the Camper of the Year.

Counselor Mark, can you show these guys a battle cry?

- Ahhhhhhhh!

- Let the games begin!

- I'll be in my cabin. Call me when it's over.

Cody.

- On your mark!

Count of three. One...

- On your mark.

- One, two... - Two.

- Set.

- Go! - Go!

- Toss. - Yeah!

- One, two, three, and go.

- Set!

- Winner, winner chicken dinner. - Yeah!

Whoo!

- Okay, guys, let's give it up for the purple team.

Great job.

All right, so going into the final event we still got

three teams in contention for the grand prize.

Tied for second place, we've got the orange team.

Also tied for second, we've got the blue team.

Great job, guys.

- Pelicans! - Pelicans! Pelicans!

- You guys know, first place right now

leading by one point, we've got the red team.

Great job, guys. Great job.

Okay, everybody, let's get those swimsuits on.

Meet us down at the lake for the swim relay.

- Go Firefly. C'mon, c'mon, go, go, go, go!

C'mon, c'mon!

- Dude no, no, no, I'm last.

- We're gonna win. C'mon, c'mon, let's go.

- I'ma bring this one home.

- Hey, I'll get us a good lead.

You just take your time, okay, bud?

- Are you okay?

- Yeah, yeah, I'll be fine.

- C'mon, c'mon. Let's go, let's go.

C'mon, let's go!

- Start going. Go, go, just go.

- It'll be okay.

- Go get her, little man!

Set her down right here.

- C'mon, Jimmy gimme a hand.

C'mon! - Hey, Dean, relax, okay?

You don't need to swim.

- No, man, I got this.

- Look, you don't need to swim. They forfeited.

They got out of the water. - We win!

- No you don't. Are you crazy?

- We won. Ha-ha!

- That's not fair. He took her...

But...

- Tell 'em, Garrett.

- Yes, technically, blue team wins this round.

- Then that leaves them tied. Now what?

- Now we go to the archery field.

All right everyone, archery field. Let's go.

- I'll be okay. You got this.

- We got this.

- All right guys, excuse me, excuse me.

This is for all the marbles here.

Here you go, sir.

- Give it.

- Dude, you know I'm the best archer.

- No way. This punk is mine.

- Okay, guys.

This is gonna be three arrows.

Three arrows only, all right?

Alternating shots. Best arrow wins.

Who wants to go first?

- C'mon, Cool Cat.

- You can do it, little dude.

- You got this, Spence.

- Don't choke, squirt.

Loser.

- Watch it, Dean.

Sorry, I'm just so nervous.

- C'mon.

Best for last.

- Best is going last. - Yup.

- Good luck...spaz.

- Fear not.

I'm not alone.

- Hey...

- Armadillos! - Armadillos! Armadillos!

- Campers, I...

First off, you guys clean up real nice.

That was a great games.

That is by far the best games

that I have ever been a part of

in all the years that I've been coming to this camp.

All right, I mean, I am so proud

of each and every one of you guys.

You really gave it your all out there.

And it is a privilege to be your...

- Okay, okay, shall we just get on with it?

Thank you. All right,

so the victorious team of the games this year is...

- No, really?

Are you certain? - I'm certain.

Okay. The Armadillos!

- Armadillos! - Armadillos! Armadillos!

- I wanna thank the Academy and my fans

and my family... - Yes, yes, yes.

- and all the people and bananas.

- Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Back to your seats, boys. Back to your seats.

Wonderful. Wonderful.

Now what we've all been waiting for, the big one...

Camper of the Year.

- Oh, whatever.

- So, Camper of the Year.

Uh, folks, the winner this year

is just an outstanding person,

and I think that they've learned a lot

while they've been at camp, and I hope

that we've all learned a little something from them too.

So let's all give it up for my main man,

Spence "Cool Cat" Neil!

- Here you go, little dude.

- Hey. - Look who I found!

- Grandpa, Grandpa. You won't believe it.

We won the games!

Zach, show him the trophy.

Whoa. Oh man.

- Oh, and Spence won Camper of the Year.

He saved this girl and swam across the entire lake.

- Faced your fears, huh? And met girls?

Sounds like you and I have something in common.

More than one thing, actually.

- Wait for it.

- Hey folks.

Hey there, Spencer.

- Ms. Boon?

- Told ya she was sweet on me.

He wore me down.

You boys must be hungry. From what I remember,

the food at that camp is not all that great.

Especially those brownies.

- C'mon, I'll help you. - All right.

Spence, looks like, uh,

looks like you and your brother have buried the hatchet.

You have to tell me what you learned at camp.

- I'm not alone.

- Mm. And you never will be.

C'mon.
