All language subtitles for Space Adventures (1968)

If I decide to go
round the world

Just to kiss
some sweet Oriental girl

Ain't got nobody stoppin' me

I'll lift the anchor and go

I run a one-man show

Life is a breeze
We live it for fun

No apologies to anyone

We live on the seas
We do as we please

From stern to stern
Each moment is now

Life without concern
From aft until bow

We live on the seas
We do as we please

Papa. Aye, aye, Pippi.

Why do we want
all these necklaces and stuff?

Gifts for the Kurrekurre
islanders, of course.

And I suppose these are to buy
me a dress fit for a queen.

[LAUGHS]

There you're wrong,
my little darling.

They're to keep you
out of a pot.

Little-girl stew
is a delicacy

if they're still cannibals,
like the good old days.

Papa. Save me.
Whoa!

[BOTH LAUGHING]

You're not strong.
I'll show you.

Right. Onto Alfonso.

[NEIGHING]

Are we gonna
take Alfonso ashore, Papa?

Well, of course.
Aren't I the terror
of the South Seas?

We'll ride ashore in style.

Maybe they'll think
I'm King Neptune.

King Neptune?
Never heard of him.

It's time you went back
to school. Oh...

Fridolf.
Yes, sir.

Take five and learn
the princess
some history stuff

that'll come in handy
when she's a boss like me.

Count on me, sir.
All right, Pippi. History.

Take notes.

Okay, Mr. Neilson, if I have
to learn this rotten
old history stuff, so do you.

All right. In the beginning,
there were...

apples, oranges and bananas.

And Mr. Neilson loves bananas.
And Mr. Neilson loves bananas.

[GIBBERING]

[RUMBLING]

Into the rigging
and down with the mainsail!

It's plain as Pippi's nose,
there's foul weather ahead!

[THUNDER CRACKING]

Sorry, Fridolf.

I can't study any more
just now. They need me
in the crow's nest.

[THUNDER CRACKING]

[HORN TOOTING]

[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

[THUNDER CRACKING]

Help! Papa!

What is it, Pippi?

A big wave!
Coming towards the ship!

Come down, now!
No way now! Help!

[THUNDER CRACKING]

Take over, Fridolf.
I've got to get Pippi down.

Aye, aye, captain.

Papa, I'm scared!

Lash yourself to the mast,
girl!

I'm coming up for you!

Hang on!

Papa, I'm slipping!

Hang on! If I lose you,
remember the Villa Villekulla!

The Gulf Stream
will take you there!

[THUNDER CRACKING]

We'll come out on top
like we always do!

Ah!

Help! Ah!

Papa!
Papa, where are you?

I'm drifting away
toward the island!
The current's taking me!

Papa, it's taking me
the other way.

Grab hold of the raft.

Make for
the Villa Villekulla!

Papa! Papa!
I'll find you somehow.

I love you, Pippi.

I wish some kids lived there.

It would be fun
to have best friends
living right next door.

Hello. You kids live here?
No, we live in
that house over there.

The nice white one.
Well, who lives in this dump?

Nobody. It's been empty
practically forever.

What did I tell you?
Absentee ownership.
Probably dead.

We'll pull it down.
The whole plot will develop.

You can't do that.
We play in that tree
over there sometimes.

Oh, not anymore you don't.
Come on, take pictures of it.
Lot of pictures.

I'll knock it down,
we pour cement
as far as you can see.

Everything living
gets cut down.

RYPE: It's another gold mine,
boss.
RANCID: You're a genius, boss.

We're drifting in the right
direction, and we're not
gonna starve.

[GIBBERING]

Keep reeling them in,
Mr. Neilson.
NEILSON: Okay.

Mr. Neilson and I
are very grateful
to you for saving us,

[GROANS]

but you've got to eat.

It's all there is.

Mm. Not bad.

[BURPS]

[LAUGHING]

Well done, Mr. Neilson.

You might not be
the prettiest monkey at sea,

but you're the cleverest
and the dearest.

What about me?
Okay, okay. I love you too.

Whee!

And now we must stick together

like the time
when we were in Timbuktu.

So when Papa finds
his way back, he'll say,
"Well done, guys."

Wake up, Mr. Neilson.
Another lovely day.

I hope Papa made it.

Don't worry, Alfonso.
The Gulf Stream
will take us home,

just like Papa said.

But Dad, why would anyone
wanna tear down
Villa Villekulla?

Progress, Tommy.

Mr. Blackhart has plans
to build all sorts of houses

and a golf course
and a swimming pool.

Sounds nice.
Maybe we should move.

No.
No.

I don't wanna move.
And what about our tree?

Ah, there's plenty
of other trees, Tommy.

You and I will go out
and find another one together.

Besides, this town
could use some changes.

Now, it's getting late.

Come on.
Oh, come on.

Time to bed. Come on.
Off you go. Just a couple more
minutes.

Five minutes.
Just five minutes.
Lights out in half an hour.

Come on. How about an hour?
Forty-five minutes?

MR. SETTIGREN: Sorry.
MRS. SETTIGREN: Time for bed.

Time for bed.

Now, you know where we are
if you need us, right?

Yes. Good night.
Okay. Good night.

And you'll be all right?
Yeah.

Love you.

Love you.
Love you.

Mom says the Villa's
over 100 years old.

They can't tear it
down just like that.

It just won't be
the same anymore.

I don't wanna
leave here, ever.

You know,
Annika, there's something
strange going on in there.

You mean somebody's in there?

Or maybe even ghosts?

Yeah,
it could be even a ghost.
Let's go check it out.

ANNIKA: See anything?
No.

Besides, you can't see ghosts.

Well, if you can't
see ghosts...

[DOOR SLAMS]

then what are we looking for?
Shh!

[CREAKING]

What was that?
The step creaked.

Don't follow so close.

Ah!

[THUMPING]

Look. It's up there.
If I say "run," run.

Okay.

Where?
Just run.

Look.

Do ghosts
have big shoes?

Give me the bat.

Can you hit a ghost?
Shh!

Stop asking
so many questions.

You see?
It's nothing. Probably just--

[NEIGHING]

[BOTH SCREAMING]

[BOTH SCREAMING]

[NEILSON SHRIEKING]

ANNIKA: Ah!

TOMMY: Ow! Oh, God. Ow!

Hi. Who are you?

You're not a ghost?
PIPPI: Course not.

The ghosts live
up in the attic.

TOMMY: We know.
We just saw one.

It was big and white
and had spots all over it.

That's my horse,
Alfonso.

What's a horse doing
in the attic?

Beats me. I keep telling
him not to go up there,
but he doesn't listen.

Alfonso, get down
on the porch
where you belong.

No way.

You see?
He won't listen.

My name's Pippi.
Pippi Longstocking.

I'm Tommy,
and this is
my sister Annika.

What are you doing here?
I live here, of course.

Are you gonna stay here
all by yourself?

Oh, I'm not all by myself.

Mr. Neilson and Alfonso
live with me too.

[NEILSON GIBBERING]

Oh, is Mr.
Neilson your father?

This is Mr. Neilson.

[GIBBERING]

My father's a sea captain
who was washed
overboard in a storm.

Did he drown?
Of course not.

He lives on
the Kurrekurre Islands.

He's the king
of the cannibals.

Cannibals? Real cannibals?
There's no such thing today.

How do you know?
You've never been there,
have you?

And do they really eat you?

Yeah.

Which reminds me, I'm hungry.
You guys hungry?

We're always hungry.

PIPPI: Great.
NIELSON: Yeah, me too, me too.

Who's for pancakes?

[KIDS HUMMING]

[KIDS LAUGHING]

What the heck's that ruckus
over there?

What could it be?

You don't suppose
Tommy and Annika--

No. I'll go see.

[ALL HUMMING & LAUGHING]

Hey, Annika.

Hey, Pippi.
Come on.

Hey, Annika.

Pancakes, Alfonso?
Come and get it.

Pancakes. Pancakes.

[GIBBERING]

Come on, Annika. Pippi.

Come on, you guys.
ALFONSO: Hello.

[KIDS LAUGHING & HUMMING]

Tommy. Annika.

Just what in blazes
do you think you're doing?

We're just having
a midnight snack.
Care to join us?

I have never seen such a mess
in my entire life.

You two are going
to march right home
this very instant.

And go to bed.

As for you,
I don't know who you think

you are or what
you're doing here,

but I'm going to
get to the bottom

of this first
thing in the morning.

March.

Nice meeting you.

Party, party.

Thank goodness
I only have you and
Alfonso to worry about.

Alfonso?
Her name is
Pippi Longstocking.

ANNIKA:
And she's come to live here.

I don't know what
got into you two.

How could you
do something like this?

Here, darling.
Oh, thank you.
I-- I-- I'm so confused.

I mean,
that house stands empty

for heaven knows
how many years.

Suddenly,
in the middle of the night,

some 11-year-old
terror moves in.

I know.
Our kids seem to love it.

Yeah, well,
you should've seen them.

A flying horse? And how
do we even know
it's her father's house?

You can be sure that I'm gonna
get to the bottom of this.

ALFONSO: Higher.

PIPPI: Keep your
head still, Alfonso.

Higher.

Hi.

We're running a little late
this morning.

Annika and Tommy.

Thanks. A real sword.

Did you wash
behind your ears?

You can't expect a horse
to do it for himself.

Shh. He thinks
he's just like us.

Okay, you can go out
and play now.

But don't tease Mr. Neilson,
or you'll have to come
right back in.

All right. Next on the list.

Ah.
Nothing like a morning bath.

But Pippi,
you've got all
your clothes on.

Well, that's
because it's laundry day.

Well, that's enough of that.
There is

such a thing as
being too clean.

You'll catch
your death of cold
if you stand around like that.

Since when do people die
from being wet?

That's what my
mom always says.

Well,
now that you mention it, I do

remember one time
at the North Pole

when I was so
frozen after swimming

with some seals
and Eskimo kids

that I had to dry myself off

Ah!

See?

That was easy.
Now we're ready for a game.

Game of what?
Rub-a-dub-dub scrubbing day.

It's my favourite day.

Everything's soapy,
so we might as well
scrub the floor.

Scrub the floor?
That's not a game.

You wanna bet?

Oh, Pippi. What a mess.
PIPPI: Here.

Put these on and follow me.

I put my scrubbing shoes on

And I never get the blues
On Monday morning

Yeah, yeah

This dust'll be a goner

As I hit each dirty corner
Without warning

Yeah, yeah

Throwing soap suds everywhere
We're being careful,
very careful

To enjoy ourselves
Each step of the way

Scrubbing day
Is a holiday

And the game we play
Is as wild as it can get

Scrubbing day
Is my favourite day

'Cause on scrubbing day
We make everything get wet

Greater the confusion
I have come to the conclusion

Things get cleaner

Oh, yeah

The white is whiter
Red is redder

Blue is bluer
And the green gets greener

Yeah, yeah

Throwing water everywhere
There is a feeling in the air

That any minute
We could all float away

Everybody!

Scrubbing day
Is a holiday

And the game we play
Is as wild as it can get

Scrubbing day
Is my favourite day

'Cause on scrubbing day
We make everything get wet

[KIDS LAUGHING]

Whoa, lucky I was here
to catch you.

Looks good, Pippi.

What a great way to clean up.

I must try it someday.

This is my mom, Pippi.

Nice mom. My mom is--
She's not here right now.
She's--

I don't mean to
be rude, Pippi,
but we're terribly late.

They've got to
go to the dentist.

Bye, Pippi.
Bye, Pippi.

Wait. Here, take these.

My father got them
off an old sailor
who didn't need them anymore.

I don't think we can use
them just now, Pippi,
but do come and visit.

PIPPI: That'll be fun.
Bye, Pippi.
Bye, Pippi.

And when was
your last checkup?

BLACKHART: Get back.

RANCID: Watch your step, boss.

Give me that.

Briefcase.

Good morning.

Nice of you to call.

I'm Pippilotta Delicatessa
Windowshade Longstocking,

daughter of
Captain Efraim Longstocking.

Pippi for short.
Pippi. Good morning.

What can I do for you?
Selling vacuums?

I'll take a dozen.
Wrap them up.

Oh, no, I'm not selling.
I'm buying.

Oh, this is me, Dan Blackhart.
Blackhart's Ideal Homes.

If you need it, we've got it.

Well, to be very honest
with you,

I don't think I need anything
this morning.

[CHUCKLES]

But...

you can have this
wonderfully spectacular
sewing machine for a dollar.

I don't want your filthy
sewing machine.

I would like
to look inside.

Will there be anything else?
Oh...

I wonder if
you'd be interested
in selling this house.

My home? Selling?

[LAUGHING]

How can you sell a home?

You can't wrap it up.

You can't carry
it away, and you

certainly can't
fit it in your car.

Obviously, you can't make
much of a living

if you're trying to buy houses
other people are living in.

But here's a gold coin
for your troubles.

Where did you get that?
Oh, no big deal.

I have a whole
mess of them down
in the basement.

I just help myself
whenever I need to.

How did they get down there?

It's a long story,
but I can tell you

It's part of the treasure
from King Solomon's mines--

Hey.

I'm afraid you'll
have to go now.
It's Friday, wash day.

Whoa!

I'm sure
you'll understand.

[LAUGHING]

[CHATTERING]@n

Watch out, world
'Cause here she comes

And she's bound to teach you
More than one thing

Pippi Longstocking
Is coming into your town

What is going
on here?

The one no one can keep down
No, no, no, no

ANNIKA: Pippi.
Get them in the bus.
Get in there.

In the bus.

Get in the bus,
get in the bus,
get in the bus.

That's no way to treat kids.
Is that where
you go to school?

No. That's the home
for children
who have no parents.

Nobody wants them.

Well, all kids
should be wanted and loved.

Well, maybe
their moms and dads
just lost them.

[SINGING]
Pippi Longstocking is coming
Into your world

A freckle-faced,
red-haired girl

You ought to know
She'll throw your
life into a whirl

Everybody out.

Unhitch the horse, my man.

What are we
going to buy today,
Pippi?

A grand piano.
They don't sell
pianos in there.

They might today.
Well, can you play the piano?

How do I know
until I've tried?

To play the piano without
a piano takes a lot
of practise, I can tell you.

But how are we gonna pay?

Spanish gold. Pirates' money.

Pippi says you can
find your own way home.

[ALFONSO WHINNYING]

Do you wanna go with him?
No, no way.
Uh-uh. Uh-uh. No way.

LEAD GIRL: Come on. Move it.

BOY: I don't wanna...

He really is going home.

Well, they missed
a good sale there.

Move it.

Hi, freckle-face.
Don't you just love freckles?

Not much.
Well, I do.

What's going on over there?

Children's-home kids,

come for their haircut
and teeth pulling.

Don't they ever have any fun
when they come to town?

Let's go play with them.
GIRL: Move along, now.

LEAD GIRL: Come on.
What's wrong?

Orphans.
Dad says we shouldn't.

Why not?
They're just kids like us.
Let's go.

Quick, quick, quick.

Oh, don't be silly now.
Come along, move it.

Next two, please.
Come on, you two next.

Hi. What flavour ice cream
do you like best?

Chocolate!

[ORPHANS SHOUTING]

Shh!

Bug off.
It's against the rules.

Listen, I want you to go
to the ice-cream truck

and I want you to get lots
of ice cream

and every kind of candy
that they have.

Here's some gold coins, okay?
Go.
TOMMY: Okay. Come on, Annika.

GIRL 2: Yeah.
GIRL 1: Ice cream?

You won't get away
with this.

I'm telling Miss Bannister,
and she'll soon settle
your hash.

Miss Bannister.

That settles it.
Now we're gonna have a ball.

GIRL: She has an apron.

BOY:
Look, she's wearing an apron.

Miss Bannister?
Miss Bannister.

This girl.
She's creating havoc.

There's this girl.
She-- She went up there.

I don't see anyone,
you silly, stupid girl.

Now, you mean you want
64 ice-cream cones?

And Nestle's Crunch
and bubble gum.

And can we have
265 Oh Henry bars?

You just help yourselves.
It's all yours.

[MAN LAUGHING]

Come on, kids.
It's Pippi Longstocking Day.

[BAND PLAYING]

BOY 1: I want it.

GIRL 1: No, I want to try.

GIRL 2: I get to try.
BOY 2: Come on.

Come on, come on.

[KIDS SHOUTING]

The ice cream.
Let's get the ice cream.

That's really something, eh?

Those poor kids
never had such a treat.

Come on, kids.
Come and get it.

ANNIKA: Catch it.

GIRL 1: Pistachio, strawberry.

Get your free ice cream.

Here you go.

Come and get it.

[KIDS LAUGHING & SHOUTING]

TOMMY: Catch it.
PIPPI: Come and get some more.

You know,
there's always been
a lot of talk

about Villa Villekulla
being an old pirate
hangout, but I--

[KIDS SHOUTING]

I never heard anything
about a buried
treasure inside.

Well, there must be records.
Deeds?
A bill of sale? Anything.

Look, I want that place,

and I'm willing to pay
any legal costs
to get it,

if you know what I mean.

[KIDS SHOUTING & LAUGHING]

It's pistachio.

Tommy, throw
some more. Hurry.

[GASPS]

Isn't this fun?

Well, go get them. Get them.
Yes, Miss Bannister.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Hit him, hit him.

Yeah.

Gotcha.

Tommy.

I think we've done enough
shopping for today.

I'll be right back.

BOY: Hey!
Here's some more pistachio.

GIRL: Strawberry.

Keep your eyes peeled.

Annika.

Tom--
You dirty rat.

Okay, Mr. Neilson,
time to do your stuff.

Here we go. Here we go.
PIPPI: Contact.

[WHISTLE BLOWS]

Would you do something?
Arrest somebody.

Yes, ma'am.

[LAUGHING]

Annika.

Tommy. Watch it. Tommy.

Kid, would you get out of my--

Get-- Tommy.

All aboard.
Come on, Annika.

Come on.

[HORN HONKING]

MR. SETTIGREN: Tommy! Annika!
PIPPI: Hold on.

You come down here
right this minute!
No, no, no. Stay up! Stay up!

ANNIKA: Hi, Dad!
See you at dinner!
You'll pay for this!

I know who's responsible
for this.

[LAUGHING]

Riding on a motorcycle,
flying through the air.

I don't know
what I would've done
if they had crashed.

Honey, Pippi got
them home safely,
as she always does.

That's what's important.

I've got a feeling
Pippi would never

put those kids'
lives in danger.

Do you know she told me

that she used to
ride with her father

on the wall of
death in Bangkok?

And you believe that?

That Pippi is
the biggest darned liar
that I have ever seen.

there's gonna be trouble.

That Miss Bannister
is on the warpath.

She's gonna have her way
with Pippi yet.

What a shame.

Whee!

Have you seen the splunk yet?
I don't want him to get me.

I'll protect you if it does.

Be careful
and don't touch the floor.
The splunk will get you.

And when he does,

he'll tear your legs off
and stick them in your ears.

Do you know
since Pippi has arrived

I've never seen Tommy
and Annika so happy?

I never even
see them anymore.

I just miss our happy
little family dinners.

Look at you.

Ooh!

Come on.

ANNIKA: I can't.
Then let me go first.

Don't touch the floor.

PIPPI: Get onto the couch.
TOMMY: Run.

You've gotta get onto
the couch, Annika.

Here.

Come on.

I did it.

Annika, come on.
It's a pillow fight.

Take that.
I'm gonna get you.

What are you kids doing?
Watch out, Mom.

There's a splunk on the loose.

I got it.
Get out while
the going's good.

Well, come along
before your father
sees this mess.

We've been having fun, Mom.

Pippi, would you like
to come to dinner?

Oh, no, thanks, Mrs. S.

I promised this fabulous swami
in Chittagong

that I'd never eat out
on Tuesdays,

and there's nothing worse
than lying to a swami.

Bye-bye.

Bye, Pippi.
Bye.

Bye.

Let me give you
a hand there.

[ALFONSO WHINNYING]

What are you doing up there?

Looking out for a storm.

Well,
come down at once, please.

Why? Do you have
a new game
for us to play?

I'm afraid this
will be no game.

I am the welfare worker
from the county

and there is a place for you
in our children's home,

and I have come
to take you there.

But I already have a place
in a children's home.

Where?
Well, look.

I'm a child,
and this is my home.

Therefore,
I live in a children's home.

And a very
comfortable one at that.

But no child can live alone.
No, no, no. It's unheard of.

Every child needs
adult supervision
and has to go to school.

ALFONSO: School.
Why?

BANNISTER:
To learn things, of course.
What kinds of things?

Reading, writing, arithmetic,
history, geography.

All those things
that a person has to know.

Well...

Fridolf taught
me how to count,
enough to count my gold.

And as for
the other stuff, I've gotten

along fine
without it for 10 years.

So I'm afraid
you'll have to find children

for your children's home
someplace else.

Well,
if you would just take ahold
of that beast,

I'll want to see
what's going on inside.

Sure.

But if I were you,
I'd wait and
come back on Friday

because today's splunk day,
and they're all
over the place.

I tried to warn her, sort of.

[CRASHING & BANGING]

That was a trap
to catch a splunk.
They're such a pain.

Always trying
to steal my gold.
Get away.

If I let them stay,
they'd eat me
out of house and home.

And that wouldn't do,
because then I'd have to go

to
the children's home with you.

Don't, don't, don't.

I don't know
how to thank you and
those kind people in town

for thinking
so much of me.

But take this and give
those poor children
in the home a nice holiday

with lots of ice cream
and marshmallows.

[LAUGHING]

[GIBBERING]

Oh, give it here.
Hey.

Wretch.
She took my hat.
She took my hat.

Okay, okay.
Tell you what.

Maybe I'll visit
Tommy and Annika's school.

Who knows?
Might even be fun.

I love drawing
and painting.

Good morning.

Mr. Neilson, you sure are
the cleverest monkey

for painting
all these beautiful pictures.

Thank you very much.

And the dearest.

What about me?
PIPPI: That's enough.

Oh, hello, Alfonso.

I love you too, Alfonso.
I'm so lucky to have you guys.

Got her, boss.
Get out of there.

Ah, there she is,
turning my property
into a pigsty.

Ain't yours yet, boss.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

No, but it soon will be
if you two
idiots do your stuff.

Now listen,
she loves those two
stinking animals, doesn't she?

Right. Right.
Yeah, boss.

Hello.
TOMMY: Come on, Pippi.

I'm coming.
ANNIKA: There's rocks ahead.

Don't worry.

PIPPI: Catch.
Whoa!

Oh, my gosh.

They don't make china
like they used to.

Whoa!

Don't miss these.

Whoa!
What a bozo.

I work my fingers to the
bone cooking for you,
and you mess it all up.

Here's yours.

Mine. Mine.

Isn't it great
to be alive?

What in the world
did we do
before Pippi came?

Practically nothing.
Fished, read comics,
played ball,

but now every day
is fantastic.

It's one of those
paradactyl things.

That's Jake
and his new flying machine.

Gee, I've never seen anything
like that before.

He invented it himself.
You mean he
actually made that thing?

He calls it his autogiro.

He even promised me and Annika
he'd take us up sometime,

except Dad says no way.
He thinks it's too dangerous.

There it is, boss.

Look, I can fly.
Pippi, don't. You'll fall.

You can't really fly.

My papa always says that
if you believe in yourself,
you can do anything.

[BELL RINGING]

Shoot, that's Mom.
We gotta go now.

We promised. Bye.
Bye.

Bye.

RANCID: Leave it to us.
Come, let's go.

RYPE: Okay.

Pippi,
there are two
official-looking guys

coming through the gate
with white jackets on.

Fantastic.

I just love men in uniform,

but policemen are the best.

Ouch!
Shh.

Anyone home?

County Animal Control.
Come to fix your livestock.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

[GIBBERING]

Hey, what are you doing?

Wow.
Oh!

Watch it.

That's pirates'
gold and anyone

who touches it
will turn to dust.

Look, kid, we got an order
to take your animals
for their shots.

Nobody shoots my animals
or takes them anywhere.

Whoa. We're not gonna
shoot them. We're just
gonna give them a few jabs.

Yeah.

Hey, that's my rope.

That's it, kid. Ah!

Okay, kid, if that's the way
you want it.

[CLANGING & BANGING]

Whoa!

And that's
the bully tree.

You should be ashamed
of yourself, picking on
a poor little girl.

Whoa!

There's no sense
wasting such a nice day.

You little monster, you.

Let's play Find the Hat.
Come here you-- Ah!

Come and get it.
Let's get the gold
and get out of here.

What, with her
yelling her head off
in full view of everyone?

Get that ladder.

That's the idea.
The view's lovely up here.

I'm gonna get that
strong-armed little freak
if it's the last thing I do.

Then what?
They've seen our faces.

Here's what we'll do.
We'll put her in a sack

and when it gets dark,
we'll get rid of her.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

[GIBBERING]

Here. Don't want
you to get sunstroke.

Ah!

Get up there.
Come on.

Bravo, well done.
Here I come.

Isn't this fun?
I do it every day.

You little brat.
I'm gonna pull
those pigtails clear to China.

Come on, kid.

[PIPPY LAUGHING]

[BOTH SCREAMING]

Get off.
Get off of me. Let go.

Let go.
Come on, kid.
You've had your fun.

What's wrong?
I thought it was just a game.

When we're finished,
we can have
Coke and cookies.

Put the ladder here, kid,
and we'll call it a day.

Come on, come on.

Hurry. Come on. Move it.
Get out of the way.

Get off-- Ah!

You idiot.
Why, you little--

RANCID:
Get her off that horse.
I'll get you now.

I'll get you.

Ah!

Let's get out of here.

This girl's more trouble
than a truckload of baboons.

Oh, boss, no.

They're never
gonna separate us.

Never, never, never.

All you had to do was grab
the horse and the monkey.

We would've been rid
of her forever.

And all that money
just lying there!

[JAKE WHISTLES]

Be back in a couple hours.

Get-- Get--
Get down. Come on.
Get down out of there.@n

It's not safe.
Now come on.

Just what are you
doing up here?

I just wanted to see
what it was like to fly.

Careful, careful.
Careful, it's dangerous.

Now, they could
take your head off.
Who cares?

I once ran into
a headless pilot
in Istanbul.

He never knew
which way was up.

Well, I'm afraid you're
gonna have to wait a few
years to fly an autogiro.

Yeah. You know, I risk my life
every time I go up.

Vroom, vroom, vroom!

That's it. That's the idea.

Is that all there is to it?
Oh, no, of course not.

See, you need these to keep
you up, and the prop
to take you forward.

But it's really a lot
more complicated
than that.

Well, I bet I could do it.

Can I watch you take off?
Sure.

And feel free to come
around any time.

I always feel free.
Thanks. Bye.

Bye.

[LAUGHING]

My papa and I have
been shipwrecked
so many times

that there are only eight
or nine islands

we haven't been to
in the whole world.

Weren't you afraid?

Well,
there was this hurricane,

and the peas
flew out of the soup

and the ship's cat
flew past me stark naked,

and his fur landed on my fork.

[TOMMY LAUGHING]

Excuse-- What do you think
you're doing?

The sugar
feels sensational
between your toes.

Well, I'm sorry,
but we don't behave that way
in this household.

Sorry.

Now,
tell me, what makes you think

that your father
is still alive?

I know he is.
He'll be back soon.

You can rely on that.

I can't see a thing.

Pippi, come in the kitchen.
We'll wipe off your face.

It'll be all right.

I think I went
a little too far.
That wasn't funny, Pippi.

Your table manners
are atrocious.

Listen, if I promise
to practise one hour each day,

will you teach me all that
table manners and stuff?

I'll try.

Now, I want the real truth.

Your mother,
she is dead, isn't she?

Oh, no.

[GASPS]

You see that cloud?

Well, there's
a little hole in it
right above my house.

Whenever I'm in trouble
or I need advice,

I see her face
right about there.

She always helps me,
one way or another.

You okay, Pippi?
You wanna play upstairs?

Oh, I can't.
Alfonso's dying
for a hay souffle,

and Mr. Neilson
wants a banana split.

Good night.
Don't let the bedbugs bite.

Oh, wait. Whoa.
You kids,
you hold on right there.

I wanna talk to you.

Just hang on there.
Just hang on. I--
Honey.

I'm really worried
about Pippi.

She's all alone in that
house. There's no one there
to take care of her.

Now look, don't get yourself
all upset. Pippi is not
our responsibility.

This Miss Bannister,
she has a lot of support
in this town.

I can see why.

The county created
the children's home

for kids who are lost
or have no parents.

And it...

It just seems to me that Pippi
fits the bill perfectly.

Poor Pippi.

No mother or father
to look after her.

We've gotta do something,
something drastic.

[POUNDING & BANGING]

Boxes are finished.
Where do we put them?

Careful how you mount them.
They gotta be fixed real firm.

[POUNDING & BANGING]

What?

Oh.

Oh, this is too much.
This is just too much.

What the heck
could she be doing
at 3:00 in the morning?

Can we--?
I say, can we possibly

have a little
peace and quiet here?

Go to bed!
Don't fuss.

You're getting rid
of her tomorrow, aren't you?

Well, I wouldn't exactly say
that I'm getting
rid of her, but--

What, you don't approve?
You know I don't. Not at all.

Twelve times 16 equals 192.

Children,
eyes to the blackboard,
please.

Tommy. Tommy.
CHILDREN:
Twelve times 11 equals 132.

CHILDREN:
Twelve times 12 is 144.
Annika.

Pippi, how can I teach
arithmetic with you sitting
there? Please, come inside.

Well, I don't wanna upset you.
I'm just curious.

I've never been
to school before.

Except in Wagga Wagga.
That's in Australia.

They chased wallabies
all day long.

And we had koala
bears sitting in--
WARD: Enough, Pippi.

I'm afraid you
can't stay there.
It's disrupting the class.

CHILDREN: Aw.
Children, back to your seats.

I was just hoping
all that learning
floating around in there

might fly out
here and stick to me
and Mr. Neilson.

He's very bad
with his numbers.

Oh, yeah.

I'd like to help you,
but you make that impossible.

Whenever you're ready,
come to school

like everyone else
and I'll teach you.

But now, we must press on.

Bye.

Well, I guess
we'll just have
to stay stupid.

Oh, yeah.

Thank you. Will you wait here
for five minutes, please?

[FIRE TRUCK SIREN WAILING]

You have the order?
Yes, yes, yes.

Good. Then everything
is absolutely legal.

Excuse me.
Is all this really necessary?

I mean, after all,
she's just a child.
A child?

I've seen this child
in action. She's totally
irresponsible.

But a fire engine.
Now, why do we need that?

Because the brat
climbs up on roofs
and in trees.

And I've seen her up there.
She is more slippery

than that filthy monkey
she lives with,

not to mention that stinking
horse of hers.

Why the police?

Oh, she's very strong.
You should see what she did.

She threw my men
right up in a tree,

then she lifted me
like I was a baby.

Some baby, I'll tell you.

I think you'll agree. We have
to be prepared for anything
this girl may come up with.

We are agreed.

Now, nobody wants
to be unfair
or unkind to Pippi,

but I think that
once she is safe
in the van

then the whole
town can just breathe
a sigh of relief.

[CROWD MURMURING]

[POLICE SIREN WAILING]

That woman is no good.

I feel like
there's something about...

Tommy, Annika.

Hi, Pippi.

Pippi, they're coming for you.

The police, the fire engine,
Miss Bannister,
just about everyone.

I bet my
father's with them too.
They can't take you, Pippi.

We're going to run away.
Please come with us.

Yeah, come with us.
Mom and Dad are trying
to ruin everything for us.

Well, I've never run away
from anything,

but I can't let you guys
go off on your own.

So I guess I'll have to come
with you. Let's go.

Good luck.
PIPPI: Thanks, freckle-face.

How are we gonna run away?

It just so happens
I might have exactly
what we need.

[SIRENS WAILING]

[MOTOR SPUTTERING]

Good God, look at that.

All right.

COP: Get-- Get out. Get out!

BANNISTER: We'll go after her.

She can't get far
in that contraption.

[SIRENS WAILING]

Oh, my--

Keep pedalling.
I'll get it up.

Up, up, up.
Up, up, up.

Up. Up.

Flying off to who knows where

The very air we
breathe is sweet

Up above the treetops
There is not
a challenge we can't meet

If it takes all
day or maybe longer

If it takes all night

We will make our way
We're gettin' stronger

Freedom is worth the fight

Running away

Up.

Running away

Up, up.

Running away

Running away

Uh-oh.

What the heck
is she doing now?

You want us to take her, boss?
Can we, boss?
Please, boss? Please?

[RYPE & RANCID LAUGHING]

Oh, Pippi.

How could you
have done this to us?

I always thought the kids
would be
perfectly safe with you,

that you'd look
after them somehow.

Here, boy. Come on. Come on.

[SIRENS WAILING
& BELL RINGING]

It's crazy to
stop this thing now.
Come on, come on.

Will you please stop
that dang old bell? Stop it.

Listen to it--

MRS.
SETTIGREN: Did you find them?
Not a trace.

Boy, that Pippi has really
done it this time.

Are you sure they were flying?
Looked like
a flying bed to me.

A bicycle.
She was definitely pedalling.

No, when it passed
my place, it looked

like that autogiro
thing Jake built.

Well, then let's go see
that crazy flying goon.

Come on.
Let's get out of here.
Stick around, love.

Don't leave in case
they come back.

Watch out. I saw you--
Don't hit the horses.

Watch the motorcycle there.

Goodbye, let's go.

[SIREN WAILING]

I'm starving.
What are you doing, Pippi?

I learned this from
a native in Borneo.
Don't worry, it'll work.

It'll work fine.

See? It works.
Wow, it really did work.

No sweat.

TOMMY:
What are we gonna eat, Pippi?

ANNIKA:
What have you got in there?

Catch.

I don't feel like
hunting tonight.

What would you
hunt here anyway?

Oh, lions and
tigers and cannibals.

I'm very good with cannibals.

Cannibals? Here?

Just in case.

It's very quiet.

You don't think
it's too quiet,
do you?

I promise you,
with this old gun,
I'll be able to defend us,

even if we should be attacked
by a splunk.

[LAUGHS]

I'm gonna go take a nap.
Wake me if you need me.

And keep your eyes peeled.

[BIRD SHRIEKING]

Pippi. Pippi!

Pippi, there's something
out there.

There, what did I tell you?
It could be
cannibals snooping.

You can never be too careful.

Wouldn't be much use
running away

if we were just to be served
up for dinner with carrots
and parsley.

I'll bet they're
looking through
their cookbooks right now,

learning how to make us
in a special stew.

But I'll tell you this

If they ever put me
on the same
plate as spinach...

Eck!

I will never
ever forgive them.

Oh, Pippi.
Don't talk like that.

[ROARING]

Pippi, what was that?

[MAKING SHOOTING NOISES]

TOMMY: She shot it.
Three of them
just bit the dust.

Pippi, when I grow up,

I'm gonna be a pirate
just like you.

Swell.
And we'll be the terrors
of the Caribbean,

and we'll
plunder gold and jewels

and hide our
treasures in a cave,

with three
skeletons guarding it.

And we'll sing

Life is a breeze
We live it for fun

No apologies
To anyone

We live on the seas
We do as we please

You've got it.

And everyone would
turn pale and throw
themselves into the sea

to escape our bloody,
bloody revenge.

What about me?

I don't dare become a pirate.

Well, you can come along for
the ride and dust the piano.

Dust the piano?

Look what I found.

From a shipwrecked sailor's
secret stash.

Thanks.

Sleep tight.
Don't let the bedbugs bite.

Darn it.
We forgot to brush our teeth.

Go to sleep.

Without your help, darn it,

Pippi never would've been able
to build that
confounded contraption.

I know.
And I'm willing to help,
but it's night.

Good. Great.
We'll use searchlights.

Even if I could get the
autogiro up in the dark,
I could never land it.

We gotta find
those kids somehow.

It's all your fault, Jake,
helping them.

Say, listen, guys--

You gotta help,
or we'll run you out of town.

If you're not
too scared to fly,

I'll take you
up at first light

and we'll look in places
these guys could never go.

Okay?
Okay.

What's for breakfast?
Dinosaur eggs, sunny-side up.

Pippi, the plane.
It's sinking.

How will we
ever get back?

We're supposed
to be running away,
aren't we?

We're lost. I want my mom.

We can't stay gone forever.

Robinson Crusoe did.
He stayed for seven years.

Seven years?

I don't wanna stay that long.
Three years, okay?

Whew. It's getting hot.

Wanna go for a swim
before breakfast?

Come on.

Pippi, you've still got
all your clothes on.

I know.
It's more fun this way.

They can't
have gone this far.

Hey, don't forget
they have one
of my flying machines.

[SHOUTING & LAUGHING]

Hey, listen. I'm the
killer whale, and you're
the shipwrecked kids.

[KIDS SCREAMING]

Race you to shore.

These stones hurt my feet.

You're always complaining.

Come on.

Oh, no. Our clothes.
They're gone.

Somebody's taken them.
They have to be
here somewhere.

The dinosaur, I guess.
A fair exchange for the egg.

Now you know
why I swim
with my clothes on.

Oh, no.
What are we gonna do?

Now...

[WHISTLES]

Sit down. You'll either
lose your head
or make us crash.

There's no sign of them.
Go back to the lake.

If I know Pippi,
she'll be finding
some way back home.

If it takes all day
Or maybe longer

If it takes all night

We will make our way
We're getting stronger

Freedom is worth the fight

Running away

Running away

We're saved.

What do you mean,
we're saved, Pippi?

You'll see.

We're never gonna find them.

[WHISTLES]

I'm gonna follow that river.

This is as safe
as taking a Sunday stroll.

I once knew
a guy who went down
the Niagara Falls in a barrel.

He said it was fantastic.

Tiny people on the ground

We're too high up
To hear them scream

Trying hard to pull us down

They have
forgotten how to dream

Running until we drop
Or maybe longer

Running until we win

We'll end up on top
There's no one stronger

That's the mood we're in

Running away

Running away

Hey there, turn around.
Turn around.

TOMMY: You okay, Pippi?

PIPPI: I'm fantastic.

Is this safe?

Pippi, I'm scared.

Hold on. Don't worry.
What's that big
noise up there?

It must be a waterfall,
but it can't be
as big as Niagara.

Grab hold of the paddle.

Hurry.

I'm trying. Help, Pippi.

Get it. Hurry.

We'll come out on top
like we always do.

We're gonna go over the falls.

My barrel's leaking.

There they are. Down there.
I'll drop the ladder.

TOMMY: Help!

ANNIKA: Ah!

I think we'll make it.

ANNIKA: Help!
PIPPI: Help!

TOMMY: Look, it's Jake. Help!

ANNIKA: Help!

Go lower.

TOMMY: Help!

JAKE: I'll go as low as I can.

PIPPI: Drop the ladder!

ANNIKA: Help!

Down here!

Hold it steady.
Yeah, okay. I will.

TOMMY: Help! Help!
MR. SETTIGREN:
Kids, grab hold of it!

Grab hold of the ladder!
ANNIKA: Help!

Grab hold of it.
TOMMY: I got it, Annika.

That's good, that's good.
Stay there.
ANNIKA: Hurry!

Come on, get it, Tommy.

Hold it steady.
Don't move around so much.

PIPPI: Get a hold of it.
Hang on.
MR. SETTIGREN: Hang on tight.

Then Dad dropped the rope.

And Pippi
grabbed a hold of it.
Then we got hold of Pippi.

And we all went swinging
over the treetops.

And the fire engine.
And now you're making it up.

Just like...

And everybody lived
happily ever after.

You know, when I grow up,
maybe I'm not
gonna be a pirate.

I'm seriously thinking
of changing it to a pilot.

Pippi,
I don't think you understand.

You really went
too far this time.

But there's good old
Villa Villekulla,
still there.

Nobody's been hurt.

And we all did things
we've never done before.

And we had a ball.

[SIREN WAILING]

ANNIKA: Bye, Pippi.
Sleep tight.

TOMMY: Bye, Pippi. See you.

Bye. See you tomorrow.

You've got a neat fire engine.

Well, I hope you're satisfied,
young lady.

All those poor people
out of their beds

and out of their minds
because of your stupidity--
Psst, psst, psst.

And your irresponsibility.

Hi, Alfonso. You okay?
ALFONSO: Yeah.

You know, quite often,
people go to bed
too early anyway,

just because they haven't
had anything exciting to do.

I do wish I'd
asked that nice man
for a ride on his fire engine.

Will you realise
all those people

have lost time and money
searching for you?

Well,
if that's the only problem,
I've got tons of gold inside.

Come on in.

I don't want
anybody to be unhappy,

so they can each
have two gold coins
from the Spanish Main

to remind them
of this fantastic day.

This place,
ugh, it's still a pigsty.

It's worse than ever.

When you've been
on an expedition
like we were,

you expect things
to get a little dusty.

You see?

What day is it?
It's Friday.

Great.

I can start spring cleaning.
You can help too.

Don't you realise
that it's 2:00 in the morning?

My God, all normal children
are in bed.

Pippi, dear, you can't
go on like this.

You're worn out
and you're dirty

[YAWNS]

and you have no sense
of values.

Now, I want you to listen
just once. Just once.

We have this home
where children like you

are looked
after when they have
no mothers or fathers.

Now, I have the power
to force you.

I urge you to come
along peacefully.

I mea-- This is
for your own good.

Now, please, just try.
Just, say, till Christmas?

Can I ride the fire engine?

Well, if that's what it takes.

Just till Christmas?

[SIGHS]

Don't worry, counsellor.
I'll keep my eye on her.

Well, I hope we've done
the right thing. My children
are just gonna hate me.

They'll adjust
like we all must, eventually.

Thank you for your help.
Thank you.
Yeah. And thank you.

Mr. Settigren, excuse me.
Any luck with the search?

No. No, I can't seem to find
any record of a sea captain

with the name of Efraim
or Longstocking,

and the Coast Guard registry
doesn't have any ship listed

under the name of# Hoptoad.

[LAUGHING]

However...

I am going to have
a guard posted
at the Villa Villekulla,

just in case anybody
gets any ideas
about any empty property.

Just until
we get to the bottom of this.

[RANCID & RYPE LAUGHING]

Get off my car.

Now, class,
I want you to go to work

on the 12 problems
I've just given you

while I go to work
on another little problem.

Yes, Miss Messerschmidt.

Pippilotta, if that really is
your ridiculous name,

I want to know
how much is 12 and 15.

If you don't know something
as simple as that,

you shouldn't be teaching.
I won't stand for
rudeness in class.

Then please sit down.

I'm warning you, young lady,

we have ways of dealing
with rude, unruly children.

Haven't we, class?
CHILDREN:
Yes, Miss Messerschmidt.

For your information,
12 and 15 are 27.

But if you knew,
why did you ask me?

Thirteen plus 14?

Oh, about 67.

No, it's 27.

But you just said
12 and 15 was 27.

I do wish you'd
make up your mind.

Ouch! That hurt.
That was my intention.

You've asked for it.

Now, go over there,
and don't speak another word
till I give you permission.

It's no good. They won't even
let her come to the window.

She's being disciplined.

Poor Pippi.

Do you think we'll ever
see her again?

Oh, I'm sure we will.

[GIRLS GIGGLING]

Jessica, away.

Thank you.

Let's tell stories.

[KIDS LAUGHING]

What'd you do that for?
You know very well.

Come on.

Hey, Pippi,
you'll make
the pillow all dirty.

In Australia,
everybody sleeps upside down.

[KIDS LAUGHING]

I think it's time
someone told you
that in Australia

it's strictly against the law
to have lessons.

It may happen
that one Aussie kid
might sneak into his closet

to study a lesson,

but it's too bad
if his mother finds him.

[KIDS LAUGHING]

Whoa!

How'd you do that?

Arithmetic: they don't have it
at all in China.

If any kid knows
what 12 and 15 is

he'll have to
stand in the corner
all day.

If that's true,
what do they do
all day in school?

Eat caramels.

There's a long pipe that goes
from the caramel factory

right into the classroom,
and it

shoots candies out
of it all day long.

What does the teacher do?

Takes the paper
off the caramels
for the kids, of course.

You don't think
they do it themselves.

[KIDS LAUGHING]

You're nothing but
a great big liar, like Miss
Messerschmidt says.

And who said you could
braid your hair again?

Why are you so
bossy all the time?

Don't you ever do anything
you really wanna do?

We were okay until you came.

But why would you
wanna stay here?

They give us food and shelter.
And they take care of us.

Sometimes they're nice
to us, if we're good
and do as we're told.

What are you doing here?

Get out of my dormitory,
you naughty boys.

[KIDS LAUGHING]

I don't understand.
Well done, Pippi.

I really
don't understand.

Pippi, how can you make
all this mess?

Wait till Miss Messerschmidt
sees what you've done.

Well, just think.
How am I supposed to
draw a real horse

on a tiny piece
of paper like that?

Miss Messerschmidt.

[MOUTHING]Miss Messerschmidt.
Miss Messerschmidt,
come quick.

Come and see
what Pippi has done.

You. What do you
think you're doing?

I can't leave you alone
for five minutes

without your
disrupting the class

and defacing
the school premises.

Back to your desks, class,
and carry on with your work.

Good luck, Pippi.

You see that little hut?

That's called the sweat box,

where really bad
children are put.

Mom,
I hope you're not too busy
up there,

you know,
playing the harp and all,

but you know what
your Pippilotta's
been going through.

Why do they ask
so many questions

when they already
know the answers?

I mean, a horse is a horse.

I'm so confused.

If only Papa were here.
Then we'd know
the right thing to do.

I wish he was.

What? I didn't quite hear you.

Get a message to him?

But how?

In a bottle?

Oh, thanks, Mom.
My problem's solved.

Oh, uh-- You can go back
to playing your harp now.

Shh.

Once I had four jacks
and lost to four queens.

Never happen again, though.

This little hand right here
should be enough to win.

Yeah.
Flush.

Two bucks
says you ain't got--

Where'd you get that, huh?
Where'd you get them cards?

[THUMPING]

Shh.

What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

You're not a ghost.

I'm Greg,
of Gregory's Stripping Glue.
And I'm very sleepy.

Well, there's plenty
of beds downstairs.

How did you get up here?

You certainly didn't come
through the front door.

I climbed up.
On a ladder?

No. Up the wall.

Up a drainpipe, I guess.
I walked up.

Now you're
telling whoppers
worse than me.

Only flies
can walk up walls.

And spiders and
lizards and me.

How did you do it?

I'll show you.
Give me your shoe.

What is that stuff?

This is a very special glue.
Now the other one.

It sticks when you
want it to, and it leaves go
when you're through.

I invented it, and someday
I'm going to be very rich.

What do we do now?
Now you're going to
climb up the wall.

There. Go on. You can do it.

[PIPPI GRUNTING]

Well? Go on.

I can't do it.
Of course you can.

You can do almost anything
you want to,
if you believe you can.

That's what I
always used to say.

Okay, why not?

You're doing it.

You're walking up the wall.

Terrific.
I'm walking on the ceiling.

[LAUGHING]

You see? No sweat.
And it was fun.

[COUGHING]

Anyone up there?

Oh, those rats get
bigger every week.

Can you write?

Of course I can,
but right now,

I'm going to take
my little snooze.

Listen Mr. Gregory.

They don't know I have this,

but you can buy
just about anything with it.

If you'll stay
awake long enough

to write me an SOS,
it's yours.

It's gold.
I don't want your money.

What kind of an SOS?
To my papa.

Please write

Pippilotta in the jam pot.
Come quick. Villa Villekulla.

It's a little
bit more difficult
going down.

Well, I can try.

All right.
I'll put
the note in the bottle.

Throw it down to me
when I get down
to the ground.

All right.
All right.

Give me your hands.
Just for the start.

Turn me around.

Now, Gregory's glue
won't let you down.

Now, just trust it.
Remember, you must believe.

I'll try.
Have a nice nap, and thanks.

You're doing it, Pippi.

This is great.

Pippi, you're doing it.
I told you,
if you would just believe.

Oh.

I can't move. I'm stuck.

Oh. Well, just jump.

Papa always said to leave room
for your toes to wiggle.

Here we go.

Thanks, Gregory.

Now, I want you to swim
straight to my papa,

and no stops on the way.

Well, that's that.

[SIREN WAILING]

Oh, my gosh.

My God. Fire.

MAN: What is it? What is it?

BOY: Help! I'm on fire.

Get the hose out.
Get that ladder over there.

Get the children out of there.
Hurry up.
PIPPI: Please let me through.

Help! I'm trapped!
PIPPI: Gregory!

Don't worry, Gregory!
Pippi's back!

The whole place is on fire.
Please help.

Hey, shoes,
where are you?

I can't climb
without my shoes.

How many
more inside?

There are ten.

Oh, and that
Longstocking child.

Pippi,
how did you get down there?

My mom lent me her
wings and I flew.

Oh! Can't you ever
stop telling those

stories even at
a time like this?

Well, there's a man up there,
and he surely
doesn't have wings.

Come on, kids. Hurry. Hurry.
Don't be frightened.

CHRISSY: Help!

GREG: Help!

Save us!

Move those hoses over there.

Volunteers to hold the nets,
come on, come on, come on.

The ladder won't reach.

Don't worry, Gregory,
I'll save you.

We're trapped!

You can jump just as soon
as they open the net.

PIPPI: Tell
the glue man to jump first.
Glue man? What's a glue man?

My friend up there.
Gregory, you'll have
to jump first.

Don't worry. I'll save them.

Now, it's perfectly safe.

He's gonna jump.
It's all right.
I'll get them down.

Help! Help!

It's much easier
than walking
down a wall.

What wall?

You got a rope?
Yeah, right there in the back.

Don't worry. It's all right.
I'll get them out.

Bravo, Gregory.

Hi, Tommy and Annika.
Pippi,
I'm so glad you're okay.

Pippi, we came to rescue you.
GREG: You'll be safe.

Whoa!

He's coming down.

Come on.
Don't be afraid. Jump.

It's Chrissy and Billy.

Mr. Neilson,
you're exactly what I need.

You've gotta jump.
Close your eyes and jump.

The boy first.

Come on, Pippi.

Now, listen, kids.
Close your eyes and jump.

[BOTH SCREAMING]

Come on. Come on. It's fun.

I did it, and I'm all right.

Pippi, help.

Pippi. Pippi.
TOMMY: What's she doing?

Now,
you're gonna take this rope
over there.

Just jump.
It's not gonna hurt you.

FIRE CHIEF:
Get some water on that--

Well done, Mr. Neilson.
Tie the rope to something.

We need more pressure.

Help, Pippi. Save us.

We're gonna burn. Help.
Don't worry.
I'm coming for you.

Careful. Careful. Don't do it.

Come on, Pippi. You can do it.

BILLY: Hurry.
CHRISSY: Help.

Help! Ah!

Hold on, Billy, Chrissy.

CHRISSY: Be careful, Pippi.

MAN 2: Come down.

GREG: Careful, careful.

CHRISSY: Pippy!

Help! Pippi, it's hot.
Help.

I'm coming.
Pippi.

You're doing it.
You're doing it.

BILLY: Help.

GREG: Go, Pippi.

She did it.
She did it. She did--

Good job.

Uh-oh.

Put your head under my arm.
Okay, there.

Let them jump.
We'll catch them.
CROWD: No.

Let's go.

What's she trying to do?
She'll never make it.

You okay?
Uh-huh.

Oh!

Three cheers for Pippi.

Careful.
Mr. Neilson, where are you?

Mr. Neilson, come over.

Run along the ropes.
You're a monkey, aren't you?

WOMAN 2: Pippi.

MAN 3: Come on down.

Mr. Neilson,
I don't want roast
monkey for dinner.

Come on. Right now.
Stop fooling around.

Very well.

Come back.

[CROWD MURMURING]

[GIBBERING]

Come, you silly boy. Okay?

[GIBBERING]

[NIELSON SHRIEKING]

The rope!
It's starting to burn!

No, you're hurting me.

Ah!

Mr. Neilson,
you're the best monkey
in the whole world.

Pippi, I'm so proud of you.
You were terrific.

Thank God you're safe.
Oh,
I must say I misjudged you.

How can I make it up to you?

I'd really like to go back
to Villa Villekulla.

Mr. Neilson and Alfonso
must be pretty mad at me.

Oh, Pippi.

Deck the halls
with lots of holly

Shine your lights
for the world to see

You know, guys,
Christmas is family.

You'll just have
to wait till tomorrow
to open your presents.

I love Christmas.

MAN 1:
Merry Christmas, everybody.

MAN 2: You too.

Merry Christmas.
Nice to see you.

Merry Christmas.

Is the turkey in the oven?

Yes.
You look so lovely tonight.

Merry Christmas, Tommy.

Merry Christmas, Annika.

Not forgetting you,
too, Pippi.
Merry Christmas.

And Papa, I hope you're eating
lots of lovely
cakes and things

on your South Sea island.

I really hope you are.

I love you.

Mom...

you sure he's not up there
with you?

I mean, you would tell me,
wouldn't you?

I miss you both.

Terribly.

The first No#e#l

The angels did say

Was to certain poor shepherds

In fields where they lay

In fields where they

Lay keeping their sheep

Hi!
On a cold winter's night

Annika, Tommy.

That was so deep

No#e#l, No#e#l

No#e#l, No#e#l

Happy Christmas, Pippi, dear.

We just want you to know
that we love you

and that we're thinking
about you.

Miss Bannister found it
in the pet shop.

Very small.
It'll grow,
but we hope you like it.

[GASPS]

Oh, I do. I do.
I adore it.

ALL: Merry Christmas, Pippi.

BANNISTER: Happy Christmas.

[GRUNTS]

Merry Christmas, Pippi.
Merry Christmas, honey.

[LAUGHING]

Good luck, Pippi.

Hip-hip for Rocksby,
the greatest town
in the whole world.

Can we give them to her now?
TOMMY: Yes, can we?

Well, boss,
what are we gonna do now?

Find someone else to rip off?
Nope.
We're gonna keep on trying.

Haven't you two bimbos
learned anything
from that brat yet?

When you believe in something,
you never give up.

Dummies, both of you.

Oh, neat. She's so pretty.

PIPPI:
Now I can really go hunting.

ANNIKA: Look at her furry hat.

[BLOWING KAZOO]

I got an ostrich.

Alfonso and Mr. Neilson
have presents too.

Help me with them.

This one's Alfonso's.
TOMMY: This is for you, Mr.
Neilson.

Life is a breeze
We live it for fun

No apologies to anyone

We live on the seas

I don't believe it.
Papa. Papa.

From stern to stern
Each moment is now

Papa, Papa.
You've come back.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Would I ever let you
spend Christmas
without me?

Well, I'll be darned.

I made it myself
especially for you.

Now, I may be king
of the Kurrekurre islanders,

but they never
gave me baubles
as beautiful as these.

Thank you,
my darling daughter.

I knew all along
you hadn't drowned.
What, me, drown?

I could no more drown
than a camel thread a needle.

Well, what happened
when you floated ashore?

Ah. You'd never believe
what happened.

Well, now...

at first, the islanders
wanted to eat me.

[LAUGHS]

Are you really
a cannibal king?

Aye,
but there's no danger now.

I converted them
to vegetarian cannibals.

[ALL LAUGH]

You don't look like a king.
Where are all your robes
and things?

They're in my duffel.
TOMMY: What's that?

Put them on. We won't peek.
Hm?

Anything for you, girl.
Okay.

Come on.

Tell us when we can look.

[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

What does that mean, Papa?

It means,
"Tremble, my enemies." Argh!

[GASP]

[LAUGHING]

When I sailed
away from the island,

they only let me leave
when I told them

that soon I'd bring them back
a princess...

named Pippilotta.

I'm gonna be a princess.

Whee!

I'm gonna be a princess.
Princess of
the Kurrekurre Islands.

Ah, my princess.

You really are the bestest pop
in the whole world.

Bye. See you in 50 years.

Maybe you'll come out
and visit.

Well, at least
she'll be taken care of
by her father.

We forget that she's
just a little girl.
Helpless, really.

Helpless? Pippi?

May I borrow that,
please, Papa?

Thanks.

You know, Papa,
there was a lot of
nice people

I forgot
to say goodbye to.

Well, then,
open up your lungs
and shout.

It's not as simple as that.

Here.

I wanted to try
a couple new things.

Maybe even go to school.

School, eh?

Well, now.
It's your decision.

I wanna be with you
more than just about anything,

and I'd really like
to be a princess,

but I can't bear
to see people crying
because of me.

I'll miss you lots...

but in my heart,
I know it's best

for a child to
have an orderly life.

Especially if that child
can order it herself.

[LAUGHING]

Yes.

I'll come back
from time to time
to see how you're doing.

I love you.

Fridolf, come about.
Aye, aye, captain.

Don't bother.
I can take care of myself.

[LAUGHS]

Aye, aye, princess.

You don't mind going
for a little swim,
do you, Alfonso?

It's not cold.

Hey.

Come on. Up you go.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Eeh!

You can leave Mr.
Neilson with me
if you like.

ALFONSO: Cold.
PIPPI: You all right, Alfonso?

[GIBBERING]

Bye, guys. Let's go.
SAILOR: Bye-bye, Pippi.

I'll miss you, Pippi.
Look. She's coming back.

[LAUGHING]

You okay, Mr. Neilson?

[WHINNYING]

Pippi. Keep on being
just yourself, Pippilotta.

I will. And remember,
Pippi will always
come out on top.

Maybe next time, Pippi,
I'll come back to stay,

but whenever you need me,
you know how to reach me.

Come on. Let's go home.
