Al Capone headed to the hoosegow!

Al Capone headed to the hoosegow, extra, extra!

- What do you say, Mike? - Hey, they busted Capone for taxes.

- What? - Believe that, Gus?

Not killing or bootlegging, taxes.

- Strange world. - Yeah, ain't it?

Al Capone headed to the hoosegow!

Al Capone headed to the hoosegow, extra, extra!

Some Christmas presents.

I asked for cufflinks.

Nicky's got the car out front.

You talk to the hotel manager?

It's done. They canned him.

An indoor kiddie park and a washed-up architect.

This better work.

Don't you worry, boss.

It'll all go like you planned.

Nothing goes like you plan.

Hey, you all right there, Gus?

No, Mike, not really.

You the kiddie park guy?

Excuse me?

Hey, stop, what'd I do?

- Hey, what are you guys doing? - Mind your business.

Hey, hey, you got the wrong guy.

What? What? I didn't do nothing!

Hey, what?

I-I don't understand. What'd I do?

I hear you been having some trouble with the banks.

What? I...

- Me too. - You.

- You're... - Call me Al.

I... sir, please, believe me,

if I lost your luggage or something, I...

He thinks he lost my luggage!

Ah, shut up! It's not that funny.

I-I... then what do you want me for?

You need some scratch for your little kiddie park,

and I need to diversify.

Wh... you want to finance my theme park?

I got kids too, you know.

They love the carousel.

Personally, all that spinning makes me want to puke.

Go on, take a look.

Oh.

These... these are my blueprints for the park.

I ca... whoa. What's this?

I don't... I didn't desi... I didn't design this.

Yeah, that's a little something extra I want you to build.

Are these booby traps? That doesn't look safe.

It ain't supposed to be.

I don't ever want nobody to ride it

or even know about it.

This is between you and me.

I'm... I'm sorry. I don't get it.

It's probably better that you don't.

Can you build it?

Well, to these specifications?

I mean, buildings like this would cost a fortune.

Can you build it?

Well, yes, yes, technically yes.

- Drive. - What?

You need a carpenter, painter, you name it.

You need a decorator?

My wife, she's got a real eye for that artsy-fartsy junk.

Last week, she bought these statues,

you know, a pirate, a mermaid,

and, um... what was that other thing, Nicky?

- Sea hag. - A sea hag.

Things look so real, the cat thinks they're alive.

Put them in Happyland, class up the joint.

Sal, tell that mook down at the docks

we need more of them pirate statues like Mae got me.

- You got it, boss. - Um, Mr. Capone,

I'm sorry, sir, but I can't do this.

- You just said you could. - I... I know

but I... I can't build something to hurt or kill people.

Suit yourself.

Kill him.

Oh, don't.

Whoa, whoa, wait! Wa-wait, please, wait!

Your turn to dig the hole this time.

- Wait, I'll give you references! - I dug the hole last time.

- I got a family! - Last time the guy was a jockey.

At most it was, like, half a hole.

You win! I'll do it! I'll do it! I'll do it.

Let him have it, boys.

Go. We don't got all day.

Save Happyland!

Save Happyland! Save Happyland...

Happyland, a cherished Chicagoland institution

since 1932,

but rising costs and weak attendance

have taken their toll over the years,

and despite loyal customers, crowdsourcing campaigns,

and multiple unfounded claims

linking the park to Al Capone's lost fortune,

the money and the rides have all come full stop.

Happyland is out of business.

How can you have Happyland all to yourself for three days

and not want to search for the loot?

Because I have a job to do,

and I know fact from fiction.

Okay, but what if you're wrong?

We'll never have a chance like this again.

After next week nobody will.

Let it go, Henry.

In your thesis you said

that Capone always stashed his loot in different places.

Some of it's got to be at Happyland.

- How did you get my thesis? - It's online.

Put any crap on the Internet.

And the architect, this guy,

Gus Whatshisface,

one day he's bankrupt and working as a bellhop.

The next he's got a million bucks to build Happyland.

Come on, nobody found that odd?

Henry.

Happyland isn't that big.

He wouldn't have needed half of that.

Then what did he spend it on?

Listen, the Happyland legend is a hoax.

I've told you that 100 times. There's no hidden ride.

- There's no hidden loot. - But dad...

It is a fairy tale, Henry.

You're getting to be a little too old

to still believe in them.

For Bluebeard's fish and chips on the corner

of 120 and 176.

What do you say, Polly?

Polly like a bargain.

What... what year is the nickel?

Yeah, uh, no.

Sorry, uh, maybe 100 bucks.

You know, today's market, I don't know.

Maybe 4 million.

Yeah, I hope you... Hope you find one too.

Keep dreaming.

4 million for a coin?

Like, ancient King Tut stuff?

1913 Liberty Head nickel.

No way.

Dad, DWP said we're 45 days late on the bill.

I'll get to it after lunch. I need you to print out

that picture and place it in next month's catalog.

Henry can take the counter.

There's a customer coming in later

that I would like to handle myself.

I bet you would.

- Shut up, Henry. - Stop fighting.

Henry, mark all of those Happyland posters 20 bucks each,

and Joy, I'm sorry. We just... we don't have time

for you to goof off with your friends today.

I'm not gonna goof off. I never do.

That's true.

She'd have to have actual friends to do that.

Stop fighting.

At least I know how to swim.

Enough!

Oh, I'm sorry, guys.

I'm sorry.

It's just that the business isn't doing well as well as...

Your mother was so much better at this than...

It wasn't supposed to be like this.

It's hard to believe you were ever that cute.

You remember when we were little,

and mom and dad used to travel?

And they would always bring us back...

A puppet.

What was with that?

Today dad told me to stop believing in fairy tales.

Do you?

I don't know.

Is it a fairy tale for us all to be happy again?

Get ready to have your mind explode all over your pants.

Footprint of a baby sasquatch.

- Not today, Truman. - Where'd you get this?

My cousin Wendell in Wisconsin.

What makes you think it's not just some kid who was barefoot?

Maybe, or maybe that's just what the government

wants you to think.

Nice perfume, Joy.

What do you call that?

- Lemon Pledge. - Well, it's just enchanting.

- What are you doing? - I promised Lainey

I would assemble this cereal box toy,

but these instructions make no sense.

I've got slots fitting into holes and holes fitting into slots.

A won't fit into B,

and C doesn't fit into D.

It's chaos.

Whoa, whoa, don't tell me that's from Happyland.

- So? - So it's cursed.

You guys got to get that thing out of here.

- No way. - It's totally true.

So Al Capone used to have all these weird cursed statues, right?

And they made him go insane,

so they got moved to Happyland,

and that's why Happyland went out of business.

Wait, how can a statue make someone go insane?

You guys never heard of this?

According to legend, there was this pirate, Captain Drake.

This was, like, 400 years ago or something like that.

So Captain Drake was, like, this real player, right?

The dude had girlfriends all over the world,

and then one day he meets this beautiful mermaid, Aubrey,

and he's like, "Hey, baby.

"I got my own pirate ship, and I'm rich and stuff.

Want to go out?" and she's like,

"Only if you can get me the treasure map

"from Esmeralda the sea witch.

That'll prove yourself to me or whatever."

And he's like, "But I already got

a bunch of treasure and bling and stuff,"

so she's like, "Dude, you don't get it.

"In the witch's treasure chest are, like,

"all these platinum magic wands,

"and each wand can cast a different spell,

"like turning people to stone or making them poop dolphins,

"so when she shows up, we got to kill her,

or she'll destroy us all,"

and Drake's like, "No problem. I'm always packing,

"plus we got a buttload of swords and muskets

and cannonballs and junk," and she's like,

"Hello, McFly, the only way kill a sea witch

is to keep her out of water like a fish, duh."

- Poop dolphins? - Shh.

So Aubrey's like,

"Get me the map so I can get the wands,

and then I can rule the world

'cause being a mermaid sucks,"

so Drake goes to Esmeralda and is like,

"You want to go out?" and she's super lonely

'cause nobody ever hangs out with her,

so she's like, "Yeah,"

so she, like, falls in love,

and when she's not looking, Drake steals her treasure map.

He grabs his crew, and them and Aubrey

dig up Esmeralda's treasure chest,

but here's the thing.

Nothing was in it.

So Esmeralda shows up, and she's like,

"What up, losers? I always keep my wands on me.

"All sea witches do,

"which you'd know if any of you even bothered

to fricking talk to me,"

and they're like, "No, don't kill us!"

and she's like,

"I don't kill people, buttwheats.

"I just turn them to statues

till the spell is broken by true love's kiss."

So Aubrey jacks Esmeralda,

and the pirates are like, "Girl fight!"

But a wand misfires and poof,

and everyone gets turned into a statue.

The end.

That is the stupidest legend I have ever heard.

Happyland was in business for over 80 years.

That's not exactly cursed.

Maybe, but they are tearing it down.

So we hunting for Capone's loot this weekend or what?

- Not happening. - Aw, come on, man.

The place is gonna be a parking lot next week.

Dad said no.

He's got to get over the YouTube thing.

Behold.

Nobody even remembers Dr. Drawers.

Professor Underpants.

Whatever.

There.

Oh, it's a little boat.

I think it's a little car.

I think it's a pancreas.

Why would it be a pancreas?

Hi, Lainey.

I made you a...

a thing.

Thank you.

So you want to hang out with us?

No.

She's still waiting, Henry.

Do you have any posters of Megan Fox in here,

ideally in something clingy?

Put those down.

This computer won't even turn on.

I swear, a computer from this century would be nice.

"A, B, C, D,

"put the letters together, turn back,

and you'll find the ride."

No way.

Tell Lainey I'll be home by story time,

and she better not skip the true love's kiss part.

I love you, Benny.

To repeat this message press one.

Dad, dad!

Dad!

- Not now, boys, not now. - Henry found the blueprints!

- To what? - Al Capone's ride!

Hi. Uh, hello.

Welcome to Joanie Loves Tchotchkes.

- May I help you? - Hey, uh, Jody, right?

- Joy. - Right.

Dude, this place smells like my grandma's house.

Like, go browse or something.

I talked to somebody yesterday about a vintage comedy record.

Oh, "Who's On First."

Yup. That was me.

Yo, check it out, Treasure Hunt.

- I had this. - No one cares.

Anyway, uh, how's 5 bucks sound?

Yeah, this one's pretty rare.

We can't go lower than 40.

Are you sure?

5's good.

Great.

You getting more Happyland stuff?

Oh, yeah, a bunch.

Since they've closed, we've been able

to dig through the entire park.

Sweet. That must be awesome.

Tell you the truth, it's kind of spooky with everybody gone.

Hold on. Are you saying you guys have

the entire park to yourselves?

- Just for the weekend. - I'd go on the rides 24-7,

especially the Pirate's Cove waterslide.

Actually, they've already taken away a bunch of the rides.

They didn't take away the pool, did they?

How do you take away a pool, idiot?

I don't know. They have methods.

Whatever.

I told you he wouldn't believe us.

You should throw a pool party.

Hey we should look for Al Capone's treasure.

Oh, hell no!

Yeah, I'm not really into parties,

especially ones requiring me to wear a bathing suit.

Come on. I bet you look great.

- We're really not allowed to. - Just a few people.

You don't always do as you're told, do you?

- Seriously, I... I can't. - Come on.

Go wild just for one night.

Do they still have the Tunnel of Love?

How few people?

Hey, aren't you the kid that freaked out

and peed down the rope climb in P.E.?

No.

- Yes. - Dude, that was classic.

My little sister has it on her phone.

Yeah, well, he can't swim.

Shut up, dude.

Hey, Laine, what you got there?

Somebody left this for daddy.

I must have gotten the days wrong.

Lainey.

Lainey.

Lainey!

Oh, God.

What is it?

"Notice of conviction."

Eviction, genius.

We're getting kicked out of the building.

I knew there was a lot of medical bills, but...

We really got to move?

30 days, unless we pay the last three months rent.

I... I got a Pokémon card we could sell.

Well, how much is it worth?

50 bucks.

That's not gonna cover it.

We cannot tell dad about this.

Henry, this is not like hiding a report card.

- Just wait till tomorrow. - Why?

Because we're gonna find Capone's loot at Happyland,

and we're gonna find it tonight.

Henry, Dad tried for years.

Yeah, dude, and he was an expert

and had assistants and could drive.

How are we gonna find it in one night?

He didn't have the blueprints.

Joy can take us with her once Dad goes to bed.

What makes you think I'm going to Happyland?

We heard about your little late-night skinny dip with Chip.

We were never going to skinny dip.

Is it okay if I keep my shirt on?

I didn't know there'd be nudity.

There isn't going to be nudity.

Henry, this is a bad idea.

So is doing nothing.

Mom got sick,

and she fought it the best she could.

Dad took over the shop, and he ran it the best he could.

Now we have the blueprints,

and we are going to try to find it the best we can.

Are you with me or not?

I'm in. I'll drive you.

I'm in, but I'm still not taking my shirt off.

Nobody wants you to take your shirt off.

Let's say you do find this ride.

Isn't it rigged with a bunch of booby traps or something?

That's what the blueprints are for.

They lay out the traps so we can get past them.

Whoa.

Let's go.

- Hey, perfect timing. - Hi, Chip.

- Hey, let's hit the waterslide. - What's the deal, Chip?

This place is lame already. There's, like, no one here.

Why does it smell like popcorn in here?

Maybe because there's popcorn in here?

Oh.

You don't mind if our girlfriends join us, do you?

Me? No, sure, great.

Great. You're the best, Joy.

Oh, yeah, I'm the best.

I'm just delightful.

"A, B, C, D,

"put the letters together, turn back,

and you'll find the ride."

What does that mean?

I have no idea.

Slow down, dude.

What? I'm hungry.

This ride always gives me the creeps, man,

like Teddy Ruxpin and Annabelle had babies.

Daddy?

Hey, sweetie.

- There's a monster under my bed. - Oh.

Not the Tilt-a-Whirl, man. I just ate.

Is the B a clue?

I think so.

Can I watch TV?

A little bit.

You really shouldn't do that.

He don't care. Why do you?

Think fast, Joy.

D, D, there's got to be a D.

Ah, platinum wand on a worthless statue.

Oh, yeah.

Ah. Whoa.

Lainey!

Oh!

Henry!

Joy.

My nose.

That witch melted my nose.

Don't move, boy.

What realm of hell is this?

Drake!

Henry! Henry! Henry!

-Lainey?

Lainey!

What have you done to my wand?

Lainey?

- Lainey! - Whoo, whoo!

- Lainey. - Do you mind?

- I took a bath before bed. - Shh.

Is it robbers?

Open up, human. You burnt my hand.

Get back, witch, I banish ye.

"Banish ye"?

Ew.

Wand now.

Please don't eat my child.

Well, that's very offensive, deeply offensive.

Look, it's land-dwelling humans.

They must pollute nature and destroy the earth.

How's that feel, huh? How's it feel?

Just as I thought,

arrogant, devolved monkeys.

Should we call 911?

I'm not sure who you call about that.

Oh, thank goodness. I'm starving.

Ow!

Oh, ha, now I get it.

The others escaped.

The boy says this place is some kind of permanent carnival.

Where is the sea witch?

Wh-what's a sea witch?

Ah, wrong answer.

- Ah! - Let's try this again.

Where is the sea witch?

I... I don't know. Who are you?

This is Aubrey,

mermaid maiden of the Caribbean Sea,

heir to the throne of Atlantis,

and future ruler of all creatures

floating above and below the surface.

- And you are? - Chip?

Chip.

Where is the sea witch who turned us to stone, Chip?

I don't know, okay? I don't know what you're talking about.

- May I? - Please.

Ah! Look, oh, just stop, okay? Please.

Ju... ask Joy, okay?

- Joy knows about this place. - Joy?

One of the wenches they were with.

- I can call her for you. - Untie him.

I need my phone. It's in my jacket.

Stand back!

He has a small rectangle.

No, no, no, it's just my phone, see?

This device, reveal its secrets to me.

- Now! - Okay, uh, here's the camera,

and these are the apps,

and this is the phone to call Joy.

Angry Birds?

What is it you've done to displease them?

Chip, are you okay?

Joy? Where are you?

Hiding in Teddy Bear Forest.

Hello? Hello?

Don't do that!

- What's going on? - The legend, it's true.

You think?

- I can't get a hold of Dad. - Me neither.

- I don't have a phone. - Who doesn't have a cell phone?

My parents say I talk to much as it is.

Strange devices.

- Are you a wizard? - I'm a shopkeeper.

Can you smelt? My wand must be fixed at once.

Smelt? I actually... I can.

I'm a bit of a historian, and I learned to do that one...

That's very compelling.

The 21st century? A.D?

Afraid so.

Oh, this is why I hate suspended animation.

You never know where you wake up.

Where... where did I wake up?

Illinois.

The Midwest?

America?

I've never heard of it.

Do you have a name?

Of course, my apologies.

I am Esmeralda,

sea witch of the Eastern Shores.

Ben Perry, storekeeper of Joanie Loves Tchotchkes

- Antiques and Collectibles. - Ooh, what's a collectible?

A collectible is... is something valuable that people collect.

- What makes it valuable? - Because people collect it.

- Why do they collect it? - Because it's valuable.

This is why I'm a hermit.

Get smelting, Ben Perry.

When I see that mermaid and that pirate,

they'll be defecating dolphins by the pod.

What's taking so long, Ben Perry?

Well, this could take a while. I mean, you know,

people just usually bring in rings and stuff.

I don't see too many magic wands of unspeakable power.

People don't usually break mine in half.

Fortunately, I never leave my lair without...

Oh, oh, no, my wands,

my platinum magic wands. I...

- What? - Oh, I must have dropped them.

Well, it's okay. We can find them.

We just retrace your steps.

- When did you last see them? - 400 years ago.

Oh, so probably not under the couch then.

I'm stuck here without... No powers, no treasure.

I'm pathetic, like some sort of human.

Please, you are destroying my store.

Daddy?

Oh, Lainey, honey,

I am sorry I got distracted, but it... it's okay.

I'm... I'm fine. I'm fine.

It's not for you.

It's okay, they did this on "Doc McStuffins."

Are you really a sea witch?

Most of the time.

There, all better.

Thank you.

Now if you would be so kind as to direct me towards

the nearest body of water,

I need to submerge myself every hour, or I'll dry out,

shrivel into a husk,

and perish a death so painful

it's beyond human comprehension.

Bummer.

Her, that's her. Torture her.

Release the informant.

- You turned us in? - You snitch.

Hey, can I maybe, like, get my clothes back or...

No, no, whatever. That's cool.

I love being outside in my Speedo.

Chip, help us, please.

Leave

or perish.

Bye!

Where is Esmeralda?

Who is Esmeralda?

Where I'm from, harboring a witch

gets you burned at the stake.

We're not harboring anybody.

What does harboring mean?

I think it's a type of yachting.

Cap'n, look.

Oh.

Aubrey.

Where is this statue?

Feeling better?

Very much so. What do you call that?

Indoor plumbing.

- Mmm. - So I finished the wand.

Oh, excellent.

Ah, we will need a living test subject.

Any neighbors you're not fond of?

Uh, no, no, no, no.

All right, fine.

The plant will suffice.

- That's amazing. - Misfire.

The real becomes fake. Then the fake becomes real.

Oh, I can't defend myself against Aubrey like this.

It's okay. We can... we could duct tape it.

- Use a duck to do what? - It's an adhesive.

- You would wrap it around and... - Wrap it around the duck?

The... the wand, and it would ho...

- And then the duck would... - No duck, no duck.

Forget duck.

Oh, you could...

Hold your hand over the broken part like that,

keep it together. I do that with my garden hose.

No, see, then the one holding it becomes a statue.

I can't sleep. There's a monster under my bed.

Monster?

Oh, not tonight, Lainey, okay?

This must be Aubrey's doing.

Stand back, child!

Oh, no, no, no, no, Esmeralda.

No, no, no, no.

Show yourself, goblin!

Esmeralda?

Open the door!

That'll teach you to prey upon children!

Open the door, Esmeralda!

Ah. Ha.

Oof.

Well, my work here is done.

No more monsters.

Hello, hag.

So all these guys came to life

when you cut the magic wand and broke the spell?

Yeah, pretty much.

Where was that in the story, Truman?

Yeah, could have used that info, a-hole.

So sue me. I'm not up-to-date

on all my 17th-century immortal folklore.

I'm not immortal. I can't survive without water.

Yeah, Truman, like that could happen.

We went through everything. All we found is the broken wand.

You're hiding something from me, hag.

I can tell. You've got a secret.

The other wands fell in the tide

when we were fighting, remember?

They've been gone 400 years.

Take the broken one and go.

The broken one, right,

that makes pretty little butterfly pictures come to life.

How sweet.

What do I care about giving life?

Real power is in taking it,

and we're about to do that now.

Aubrey, it works if you hold the pieces together.

And freeze myself in the process?

Nice try.

This has all been a complete waste of time,

all four centuries of it.

Get rid of them.

Wait. We have a treasure map.

You know, we could have taken two cars.

Or at least one without flatulence.

Odd cartography for a treasure map.

"A, B, C, D,

"put the letters together,

turn back, and find the ride."

Chauncey, you can hide this contraption behind the building.

Captain.

Bluebeard! Ugh!

That scallywag nearly sank our ship.

Death to Bluebeard!

Drake, focus.

Right. Death to Bluebeard...

Right after we take care of this other thing.

What makes you so sure there's platinum and treasure here?

Because my dad once wrote there was.

He's the best treasure hunter of all time.

I knew Pizarro and Cortez.

They're good too.

- Oh, I... oh. - Esmeralda!

- Are you all right? - Oh, yeah, I'm fine.

I'm all right. I just... I need some water.

- They have a pool here. - No.

No water for the hag

until the treasure is found.

This could take a while. She could die.

Then I guess that gives you hag lovers some incentive.

Drake, can you find it or not?

Aubrey...

I have found treasure in every corner of the world.

I think I can handle this one dwelling.

I've got it.

I was intrigued by the name of the place,

the restroom, so I ventured in.

Incidentally, the floor is not very comfortable to lie down on

and also kind of sticky.

Esmeralda, what's that?

- I have no idea. - Quiet.

"Put the letters together,

"turn back,

and you'll find the ride."

What can you spell with A, B, C, D?

Only two things, B.C. and A.D,

indicators of time.

There's but one wall clock in this dwelling,

and what do the hands on a clock do?

Aubrey?

They turn.

Exactly.

"Turn back."

Therefore, the ride lies

right here!

Um, Captain,

th... that is a circuit breaker.

So?

So if you try going through that, you'll get shocked.

Stand aside, boy.

Nothing shocks me.

I'm a pirate.

One!

Two!

Three!

Oh, no, Ben Perry. Oh, no, they found my locks.

We can't escape? Joy, take your sister.

Hide in Teddy Bear Forest. Boys, get to Horror Hollow now.

- What about you and Esmeralda? - We'll be their diversion.

- There's only four of them. - Daddy.

It's okay, sweetie. It's okay.

Kids, go, now.

I'll get the hag. You get the others.

What are you doing?

- Uh... - On this side.

Don't move.

- What are in these? - Water.

Open them.

Blast.

I got her.

Run. No, no, no.

- Oh, here, here. - Okay.

Go, go.

- What do we do? - Keep your voice down

and don't move.

- Dude. - I'm sorry.

I'm nervous.

Ow, I sat on something.

Okay.

I guess he doesn't like that song neither.

Shh.

Hi, you're not still mad about the super balls, right?

I think he is.

We got to get the kids.

Oh!

Ben? Ben Perry?

Perhaps this is of some use.

Give that back. That's mine.

I got to pee.

He can't even figure it out.

The A flap connects to the B hole,

- which connects to the... - Shh.

A connects with B.

Guys, I just figured out why no one ever found the ride.

- Why? - Because it was never built.

Well, that sucks.

No, you don't understand.

What happened? Where's our dad?

- Did he get away? - In a way.

Your father was liberated by cows.

- Cows? - Cows?

Ow!

What'd you do to my daddy?

Hey, no, no.

What is wrong with you?

Don't tell me you actually care for these brats.

Leave them alone. This fight is between us.

They have nothing to do with this.

Exactly.

They're useless,

and so are you.

Oh, ow!

- Okay, all right. - Tomorrow I sell them.

They've got to be worth some platinum to someone.

We could get the treasure for you.

- Just let us go. - Why?

So you can electrocute more of my pirates?

I'm not falling for any more lies!

That's not fair. We tried to warn him.

Then let me warn you in return.

Try and escape,

and I will animate every creature in this park

to tear all of you apart!

Sweet dreams, kids.

Oh, and if you smell the stench of death in a few hours,

it's just dehydrated sea hag.

Did you find the father?

Angus, stay here. I'll be in the pool.

Oh, Patch, Chauncey,

feel free to honor your fallen captain

by pillaging Bluebeard

and his reasonably priced fish restaurant.

Aww.

I never get to pillage.

Do you think daddy called the police by now?

Totally. Don't worry.

We'll be rescued in minutes.

Doesn't matter. Aubrey has that wand,

and... she can destroy the world, and she will.

Help isn't coming, you guys.

- We need to help ourselves. - How? We're locked up.

Esmeralda, what could you do if we could find some platinum?

Could you defeat her?

It depends on how much.

I mean, a little bit, I could defend us.

With a lot, I could...

I could defeat her.

Why?

Because I know how to find the treasure.

Guys, I just found the D.

A through C aren't locations on the map.

They're items.

Connect A with B with C with D.

That's the ride.

Okay there, Bob the Builder,

how are we supposed to do that?

We just got to get out of here.

Yeah, one teensy detail.

Excuse me. Excuse me?

Hi, I'm sorry. What's your name?

- Angus? - Aye.

Angus, oh, I love Scottish guys.

- Are you from Scotland? - Aye.

Got a real wordsmith here.

Angus, this is gonna sound silly,

but this might be my last night alive...

And I've never kissed a boy before.

Would you kiss me, Angus?

Really? Really?

- Shut up, Truman. - Forgive me.

I don't want to ruin a romantic moment

with you and a smelly pirate

who hasn't brushed his teeth in 400 years!

Minimum!

Joy, what are you doing?

So... with tongue

or without?

Surprise me.

Shut your eyes.

- Well, I'm surprised. - Me too.

I'm so glad my mom didn't see that.

All right, Henry, let's get building.

So how does it work?

The wheel steers. Lift it up, and the ride stops.

Push it down, and it goes.

Only one problem.

Once the ride begins,

if the engine idles too long...

it'll explode.

The same thing happens to my grandpa's Pinto.

Boom.

Okay, Henry. Good safety tip.

Let's go.

Hold on tight.

Well, that was a letdown.

What? No, no, no, no.

The Tilt-a-Whirl car seems to be connected to the floor somehow.

So what's the deal, Henry?

It should have worked.

Pretty lame, dude.

We put the letters together.

We turned back out of Teddy Bear Forest.

Where's the stupid ride?

Everybody's right.

This urban legend stuff is a complete waste of time.

From now on I'm just gonna do normal stuff

- like everybody else. - What does normal stuff mean?

- To fit in. - Huh.

Guys, if we can't find it,

we might want to think of a plan B and, you know, leave.

- What did you do? - Nothing.

I just turned the wheel backwards a little.

Of... of course!

We don't turn back. The wheel turns back.

Do it again.

Oh, my God. Keep going.

Keep going.

Henry, you did it!

What's that sound?

- What? Oh! - They're coming!

Hide, hide. Come on, hide.

Now or never.

Shotgun.

Get in, hurry.

Henry, the blueprints.

Stop them!

Which track, which track? Uh, middle looks safe.

No, no, we take the left.

The left? It's a brick wall, dude.

I'm telling you, we take the left.

Hold on.

- What the hell is that? - It's the engine.

It's about to blow. We got to make a choice.

How positive are you? I don't want to die a smudge.

- 50%? - Punch it, dude.

It's a sponge.

It's a sponge.

Get them, get the platinum, and get back here.

Now!

Don't be cowards. Children just went down there.

I'll send you reinforcements.

Go.

Go!

Aubrey, the hag.

Why can't you just die?

Whoa.

We're home free, dude.

Joy, read the directions off to me in order.

"One left, two right, three left, four right."

These read like dance lessons.

Sweet, I got an A in square dancing.

You sure? Number one's left?

Left. I hate square dancing.

If we've got to do anything like that, just shoot me now.

Just remember, the first is left.

What... what's number two? Joy, what's number two?

Um...

two right.

Three left.

Right.

Left, left.

Quick right, Henry.

- Right! - Quick right, Henry.

Not exactly like square dancing.

Nobody's answering, sir.

They're here. My children are here.

The... the pirates are here, the mermaid, and the sea witch.

- You have got to believe me. - Oh, I do.

Mermaids, witches, and pirates

have taken Happyland hostage. Happens all the time.

What about the cows?

You saw the damage the cows made.

The magic cows, yeah.

Sorry, were magic beans involved too?

Good evening, officer.

Daddy, have you been drinking again?

Lainey, what is going on?

Oh, this is starting to make sense now.

Thank you for bringing him back.

- You live here? - Of course not.

My parents are clearing out

a bunch of stuff before they tear up Happyland.

Right, mother? Right, mother?

Oh, yeah... uh, yes, that is... That's correct.

Yes, that man is my husband,

and, uh, I am her mother,

and we are her parents.

We engaged in human sexual reproduction,

which resulted in her birth.

Well, all righty then.

You folks have a nice night.

Thank you, officer.

I'm sorry, Ben Perry. I had no choice.

- Ow. - Hey, get your hands off of my daughter.

Your brats are stealing my treasure.

- What? - They built a contraption

and disappeared into a chamber below.

- Move inside. - Henry found the ride?

- Angus, lock them up. Move. - Henry found the ride.

What are you, a parrot? "Henry found the ride.

Henry found the ride." I said move.

- Ow. - Don't touch her!

Back to base and... shoot.

Uh, unit 22, shots fired,

shots fired at the corner of Benedict and Irvin,

shots fired at Happyland.

Idiot! What were you thinking?

Throw down your weapons and come out with your hands up.

My reinforcements are on the way.

So are mine.

I have a special job for you two.

Come with me.

Ooh, mama.

I've always loved you.

Holy crap.

I hate loops.

I hate a fiery death.

I hate what's after it.

What's the clue to get past here?

There's no clue.

We just time it right.

We time it, and we get past the fire.

What do the blueprints say about the gap?

There's no gap in the blueprints.

- What? - Huh?

There's no gap in the blueprints.

That pipe, it must have washed away the tracks.

- We got to go back. - We can't.

We have to.

Esmeralda can't defeat Aubrey without platinum.

Guys, we might not get out of this alive,

so Truman, I'm the one who broke your Xbox.

What? You said my dog knocked it over.

I lied.

Henry, I posted that video

of you having diarrhea in white pants.

- Why? - Something to do.

- Joy? - Oh, God.

We're legally married in Nigeria.

Hang on.

What'd you do?

Nothing. The ride shut itself down.

Where are we?

I don't know. I... I can't read in this light.

Yeah, I kind of helped myself

to a few things off the gift cart.

Guys, I think we're there.

Where's all the loot?

What happened to the money?

More broken pipes.

It's ruined.

It's useless.

Oh.

I found some jewelry.

That's something at least.

Any of it platinum?

Maybe.

You okay, dude?

We followed all the directions.

We did everything right.

I'm sorry, man.

You know... even the best directions

don't always go where they're supposed to.

Like now.

This is your last warning.

Lay down your weapons and surrender

before anybody gets hurt.

I know you can hear me.

You don't have to take orders from a fish.

She's dying. Let us out.

He won't listen to you.

They're fiercely loyal to her.

I never should have cut your wand.

None of this would have happened if I didn't cut the wand.

If you hadn't, I'd still be a statue.

Is there anything else that I can do for you?

Well, you could talk to me.

Of course.

I've been wondering something.

Lainey told me your mate passed from this realm.

Joanie died 18 months ago.

I've never known anyone who's perished.

Sea witches live for centuries.

Usually.

They're lucky.

You think so?

I've always seen it as more of a curse.

Longevity can drive you mad when you're alone, Ben Perry...

But a short life full of children...

Sometimes it's hard to move into the future

when so much of what you love is already gone.

Not all of it.

You guys do know that money is ruined, right?

Fine, don't believe us. It's not worth killing us over.

Guys.

You sure it's an exit?

Not in any way whatsoever.

- Works for me. - Forget it.

We have no way of knowing where it goes.

We could all drown.

We're better off hitching a ride with them.

Besides, they need us to start the ride.

Or not.

Next time they turn away, dive in.

Okay, I can't swim, okay? I admit it. I can't swim.

It's okay. I got floaties.

Why are you wearing those?

Well, you guys went swimming,

and Chip had a six-pack.

I wanted you to think I had muscles.

Truman.

Just give me the damn floaties.

That mermaid was never going to let us go free, was she?

Please don't do this, guys.

Don't you care about human life?

Well, they're not human or alive,

so I don't think they really care.

Do you?

Okay, before you guys do this,

there's one thing you should know.

We were stalling.

Ow! Ah! Ah!

We're rich!

Hold the gold there, Moneybags.

Those things are pennies.

Truman, are you okay?

- Is it bad? - It's gonna be fine, buddy.

Doesn't even look like it's bleeding.

- Really? - Sure.

If you're gonna get shot with an arrow,

the butt's the place to get it.

Where are we?

I think we're in the bottom of the wishing well.

How much do you think is down here?

Over 80 years of coins,

enough to pay off the rent maybe.

Who cares?

I got an arrow my ass.

Henry.

We're free.

Let's go.

- I'm not moving. - What?

Dude.

- Lainey's still stuck up there. - Come back for me.

It really doesn't look that bad.

Oh, yeah? Want mine?

- Just yank it out. - No.

Besides, I can never make that climb.

I couldn't do the rope at school.

How am I gonna do that with an arrow in my butt?

Truman, you're a lot tougher than you think.

No, I'm not. Didn't you see my muscles?

Now climb the damn rope.

Okay.

What are you looking at?

The hostage standoff continues with Happyland under siege.

Local authorities also consider the suspects as persons of interest

in releasing a herd of cattle onto the streets of the city

and pillaging a popular local seafood restaurant.

All right, what's next?

Puking, I think.

Look over there.

That's the only attraction that's being guarded.

Joy, get some water for Esmeralda,

and we'll meet you back at the jail.

How are we supposed to get past Angus?

I don't know.

I know.

Wha...

Stuck.

Let's go.

Come on, Joy.

For too long we have been playthings to them.

We have been possessions to them!

But after today we will be rulers to them!

Dad, dad.

Thank God you're all right.

Henry?

You were right, dad.

It was a fairy tale.

What?

I thought that if I could find the money,

that we could be happy again,

but all that was down there was a bunch of loose change

and ruined bills.

You were right, dad. I failed.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Oh, no.

Here. Here, sit down.

Henry, Henry, listen to me.

You found Al Capone's ride.

You didn't fail.

My God, you redeemed me...

But happiness isn't something that you can find for someone else.

They have to find it for themselves.

And I'm looking at mine

right now.

- Dad, can we go home now? - No, no, no, I c...

I can't leave without my wand. Please.

The only platinum we found in the vault were these watches.

Let me see.

These could work.

The power of five, keep them alive.

Boys...

ball...

roll.

I hate balls.

- Time's up. - Suit them up.

Suit up! We're going in.

Everybody, let's disperse now. Disperse.

But remember, the magic only lasts a short time.

So how do we get the wand away from the bad guys?

Yeah, how's a little bling gonna help?

With these, inner strength becomes outer strength.

What does that mean?

Mm, I'm very glad you asked, young man.

Let's see. Who'd like to do the honors?

Ah, Miss Lainey.

Sweet.

No way.

Hello, hag.

Give us the wand, and we'll leave in peace.

Or what?

Or by the time this is all over...

You'll all be pooping dolphins.

My broomstick!

I don't think they followed us in.

The music isn't playing.

Guys, where are the bears?

Time to sleep with the fishes.

Freeze!

Never mind.

Kids!

What happened to you?

We just got jacked by the Care Bears.

I found the way out.

What kind of witch breaks another witch's broomstick?

I...

Oh, never mind.

I've got something much better now.

Then why don't you use it to fight the dragon

before he incinerates everyone?

But this party's just getting started.

I need a spell for a special occasion.

What do you have in a dolphins flying out of one's butt?

Water! Run!

Stop doing that.

Don't move. We could have worked together.

We could have controlled everything,

but you chose to side with the humans.

And where are they now,

your pathetic dream of a family?

They've abandoned you.

Goodbye, hag.

Esmeralda, come on!

Nice throw, Lainey.

- Run, Esmeralda. - We'll cover you.

Eat this, mermaid.

So much for the watches.

Forget the platinum.

I'm gonna destroy them, hag,

one by o...

Let's go! Come on.

Don't look at him!

They don't have that at Six Flags.

We found half your wand.

- Hurry. - Go, go, go, go, go!

Run!

Esmeralda!

Esmeralda!

Wait. Are you locked out?

What are you doing?

Listen, I have to go.

What? Why?

Henry, listen to me.

Remember one thing, all right?

What is it?

Normal is boring.

- What's going on? - Is she locked out?

- She's not coming. - What?

Kids, it has to be this way, all right?

Joy, listen to me.

You would make any mother very proud.

And Truman...

I'm sorry about your buttocks.

- Thanks. - You're welcome.

Kids, go, now.

What are you still doing there, Esmeralda?

- It has to be me. - You can't do this.

You'll freeze yourself again.

It has to be me, Ben.

No, Ben, Ben, listen to me.

They're my happiness too.

Esmeralda, let's go.

I can't, sweetie.

Yes, you can.

I have to do this, okay?

No, no, you have to come!

Please, please go!

Esmeralda, no! Esmeralda!

- Shh. - No, Esmerelda!

You get back, dragon.

I banish ye!

Whoa!

You two look comfortable.

Shh.

Since we fought evil together

and she kissed me and stuff,

do you think that means we're going out?

No.

Don't bump her head.

Did they try stopping you?

No.

Most of the cops were distracted by the giant dragon statue.

Can you break her wand again?

There is no wand, honey.

I love you.

Come here.

Wow, that was a rough night.

Oh.

Ben Perry.

- Have you been waiting long? - No.

Do you know that taxi drivers don't like it

when you ask if you can drive?

- Why? - I do not know.

The Catskills.

Dutch Schultz's hidden loot.

Uh, no, but I've, uh...

I've got some theories.

Uh, Professor, can I call you back?

And... and thanks, thanks so much.

Uh, guys...

I got my grant.

Isn't that amazing?

We don't know what you mean, but we're happy for you, Daddy.

Yeah.

Oh, you know, I always imagined that one day

Mommy and I would

pass the store along to you guys,

but...

Plans change, I guess.

Dad, Dad!

I thought you guys were cashing in the coins from the wishing well.

Yeah, that didn't go how we thought.

- Well, what's wrong? - Oh, nothing.

Do you remember telling us the other day

about rare coins from the early 1900s?

Yeah, why? Did you find one?

Not exactly.

Okay. What's this?

We found 58.

Thank you. Thanks.

I've been out here for...

Oh, no.

Go away.

Go away!
