BOY: Golly, I can't believe

I'm really going to visit the Candy Castle.

I hope it's not far.

( gasps )

Mom, you've frosted me five times already.

I'm going to be late.

( laughing )

I just want you to look your best, Jib.

After all, this is a very, very...

Special day. Yes, I know.

It's the Sweet Celebration.

Hmm, maybe you should wear a tie.

Ma, it's getting late.

Hold still, Jib.

Oh, this is a big responsibility.

You're taking our gingerbread icing to the castle this year.

Are you sure they'll like our icing?

Of course.

There's none better in all of Candy Land.

It's neat, sweet and sticks to just about everything.

Let me take a look at you.

Well?

Oh, my brave gingerbread boy's first time away from home.

Now, you remember what to do.

Take our gift of icing to the Candy Castle

and place it

in the Sweet Circle by noon.

Don't worry, Mom, I can do it.

I know you can, Jib.

You can count on me, Mom.

I have my backpack,

my gingerbread icing

and my map.

And, Jib,

if you ever feel lost or don't know what to do...

Use my head?

Use your heart.

Love you, Mom.

ALL: Bye.

Careful now.

See ya later!

Bye, Jib. Bye.

Stay on the road, be on time, bring the icing. Got it.

CHILDREN ( chanting ): Are we there yet? Are we there yet?

MOTHER: Yes, of course. Can't you see the castle?

( children cheering )

I wish I hadn't sold my cart.

( hums a victorious fanfare )

Stop, you villain!

I, Princess Lolliam,

the greatest acrobat in Candy Land...

Whoa!

Lolly, how many times have I told you

to be careful with your royal scepter?

86 times, Daddy.

( giggles )

I'm sorry.

Bye, Daddy.

Lolly, stop right there.

( laughs )

Oh, Lolly, come here, please.

I want to talk to you.

Yes, Daddy?

Today, a brand-new sweet flavor will bloom

in Candy Land right after the Sweet Circle ceremony.

And today, my daughter...

( clears throat )

...you are going to have a very special job to do.

Hmm?

I've decided that I want you

to stand in the center of the Sweet Circle today.

Me?

You want me to...

Dad, are you feeling okay?

( laughs )

Delicious treats will be brought from every corner of Candy Land

and put in these gold cups.

When every offering

is in place and the last gumball has dropped...

Lolly,

are you listening?

Huh?

The last gumball, yes.

Then at just the right moment, a very magic thing will happen.

You will touch your scepter to this Sweet Circle and...

Lolly?!

( humming )

( inhales deeply )

Scepter.

Yum, yum, yummy.

( yowling )

Yummy!

( yells )

( yells )

Daddy!

( laughs )

I just wanted to see if the windmills turned.

They do.

I'm so sorry.

( chuckles )

A thousand pardons, Your Highness.

Eh, sweetheart,

I like fun as much as the next king,

but today is a special day for Candy Land.

So please, you only have to do two things--

be here at the Sweet Circle in six gumballs.

( clock ticking )

Huh?

( bell clangs )

Correction, five gumballs.

And second, bring your scepter.

( chuckling evilly )

Now, I know you can do that, Lolly,

can't you? Uh-huh.

And try to stay out of trouble till then.

Yes, Daddy.

Ooh.

Yummy.

Ah, yes, coming along nicely.

Yummy-yum.

Ah, my little licorice bites, you're back.

What did you find out?

Oh, yum, yum, yummy. Yummy, yummy, yummy.

Yummy, yummy, yummy. Yummy.

So Princess Lolly's scepter is the key to today's celebration.

Mm, good.

Did you grab it?

Yum, uh, no.

What do you mean, "no"?

Look, here's how it works.

I, Lord Licorice, am the boss, and I want that scepter,

so get back the castle and don't return without it!

Oh, those sugar brains.

This has all got to go like gumball clockwork,

or I'll never take over Candy Land.

( gasping )

Hot, hot, hot.

Ow, oh, burning.

Oh, mommy. Ow, ow, ow.

Let's see, I follow the color path

through a small clearing. Okay.

Mmm. Mmm.

( bell clangs )

Hmm?

It's getting late.

I'd better speed it up.

Oh. It's getting chilly.

I wonder where I am.

Ah, this must be the Peppermint Forest.

( chomping )

Oh, what's this?

Ah.

Mm.

Oh, it melted.

I'd better try another taste.

( yelling )

( grunts )

Huh?

Mr. Mint.

But Mister's too formal.

Just call me Mint.

Oh, oh, oh...

And what's your name?

Uh... Jib.

Uh Jib, huh?

Well, how about I call you Jib for short?

Nice to know you, Jib.

You must be headed to the Sweet Celebration, right?

How did you know?

Where else would you be going on such a sweet, sunny day?

I'm going, too.

Hey, let's go together.

Well, I, I don't, uh...

I'm bringing the most perfect peppermint stick.

It's around here somewhere.

( chuckles )

Mr. Mint, we're gonna be late.

Plenty of gumballs left, my boy.

Not to worry.

Whoo, here it is.

Huh. According to my calculations,

if we travel at a brisk pace without stopping to eat...

Hey!

You've got to relax, Jib.

This is Candy Land.

And Candy Land means fun.

Let yourself go and don't forget,

you oughta, you gotta have fun.

Try something new.

It's so good for you, 'cause-- yoo-hoo!--

♪ You oughta, gotta have fun ♪

♪ Be wild and free ♪

♪ Stay loose like me ♪

( laughs )

♪ You oughta, gotta have fun ♪

I'm in such a hurry.

I don't know if I have time to be wild and free.

Ah, sure you do, Jib.

♪ Laugh loud ♪

( laughs )

♪ Say tra-la-la ♪

♪ Wowa, you oughta, gotta have fun. Whoo! ♪

♪ Jump high, then low, then do-si-do ♪

SQUIRRELS: Bye-bye.

So long.

Bye. Bye-bye.

See you later.

So what do you say, Jib?

Maybe you're right.

As long as we stick to the road, we'll be fine.

Pepperminty-rific.

( laughs )

This'll be fun.

♪ We oughta, gotta have fun ♪

♪ We oughta, gotta have fun ♪

That's it.

♪ We oughta, gotta have fun ♪

♪ We oughta, gotta have fun ♪

( Mint laughs )

♪ We oughta, gotta have fun. ♪

MINT: And then finally, there was a loud pop,

and that's how I got my head out of the ice cream bucket.

( bell clangs )

That's the next gumball.

There are only four left.

Are you sure this is the right way?

Of course.

Why?

JIB: Things seem strangely bouncy to me.

Now, what could be bouncy up here?

( boinging )

( purrs )

That.

Whee-hee!

( purrs )

Meow.

( laughs )

And that.

Meow.

( laughs )

Oh, that's just Jolly.

He's a gummy.

That must mean we're

at Gumdrop Pass.

Whoa-hoo!

Oh, no.

Mr. Mint!

Whee!

Uh-uh-uh, no Mister, just Mint, okay?

Jump on in.

The gummy's fine.

( laughing )

Whee-hee-hee!

This is pepper...

minty...

( laughs )

...rific.

Whoopsy daisy.

( both laughing )

Whee-hee!

MR. MINT: Whee!

What are you doing down there?

MR. MINT: A front flip.

What do you think?

( laughs )

But, Mr. Mint, people are counting on us.

One, two, three, four.

( laughs )

Whoo!

I just don't have time for this, Mr. Mint.

Have fun.

MR. MINT: Hey, wait up, Jib.

( both laughing )

Whoo, that really was fun.

You should have jumped down there with us.

Exhilarating, like mint.

It wasn't on the road, and we have to

stick to the road.

Otherwise, we'll...

Be late, I know.

Don't worry, Jib.

( laughs ): We won't,

will we, boy?

( purrs )

He's coming, too?

What, you don't like dinosaurs?

Then how about a dog?

( slight grunt )

( barks and pants )

Gingerbread man's best friend.

( laughs )

Whoo! Besides, I'll bet

he's got a gift for the celebration, too.

See?

Aw, four gummy hearts.

( sad whimper )

( whining )

Fine, but we have to move fast,

and we have to stick to the road.

( barks )

You got it.

We did it, Jolly.

Whew! Give me paw.

Ugh.

You two coming?

See?

Jolly's ready to go, and I've got my perfect

peppermint stick right here.

Uh-oh, time out.

I got to get another peppermint stick.

Where are you going?

The Candy Castle is the other way.

But the Peppermint Forest is this way.

Ah, don't worry, Jib.

It'll only take me a gum ball, uh, two at the most.

( grumbles )

I shouldn't be using this, but we're so late already.

Sorry, Mom.

All I need is a little bit.

( sighs )

Mr. Mint, look, all fixed.

Wow, you're smart.

What is that stuff?

It's my mom's special gingerbread icing.

And we better get moving.

Mm-hmm.

( chuckles )

( panting )

What's the matter, little sister?

It's Daddy.

He wants me to stand in the center

of the sweet circle today.

Oh.

I heard.

He's so proud of you.

How exciting!

But Frostine, that's a big job,

a huge job.

Look at me.

Would you pick me

for the biggest job in Candy Land?

Daddy did.

( sighs )

What was he thinking?

I'm the flighty one, remember?

Why else would I have wings?

Ah.

( sighs )

Scepter!

Yummy. ALL: Scepter!

Yummy, yummy, yummy.

Yummy, yummy, yummy.

( all muttering )

He knows you can do it,

and so do I.

Sure I can do it, but I don't want to do it.

It's so much more fun to just go to the party and...

Uh-uh-uh.

Daddy's counting on you, Lolly.

( sighs )

Okay, okay, I'll do it.

Good. I'll see you at the celebration.

"Daddy's counting on you, Lolly."

I guess I should try to be more responsible.

Maybe Frostine is right.

Oh, there's my scepter.

( pitter-pattering )

( laughs )

Yummy!

( all muttering ) Yummy!

Hey.

Yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy...

Hey, come back here!

That's my scepter.

Come back here,

you rotten Licorice Bites.

Hey, you, stop!

( muttering )

I order you to stop!

Jib, where are you going?

I'm following the sign--

"This way to the castle."

But this way is shorter.

What are you talking about?

See, the castle is just on the other side

of Licorice Wicket.

You're right.

There it is.

( groans )

I don't know what to do.

( bell tolls )

Oh, no, three gum balls already.

There are only two left.

All that gummy goofing around made us late.

All the more reason to take a shortcut.

( echoey ): I don't know.

( whispers ): It's the dark, isn't it?

I'm not afraid of the dark.

Good, 'cause it's dark when you close your eyes,

( laughs ): and that's not scary.

Hmm.

Look...

( chuckles, clears throat )

...you-you want to get to Candy Castle on time, right?

More than anything.

Then a shortcut's the way to go.

Time's ticking.

( giggles )

Huh?

( sighs )

Oh, Licorice Bites, oh.

What am I gonna do?

Daddy's counting on me.

Gramma's house!

Yes! She'll know what to do.

( Mr. Mint chuckles )

MR. MINT: It's-It's really kind of nice here in a dark, spooky,

wish-I-was-home in-bed sort of way.

You know, I wish this shortcut was a strawberry shortcut.

( whispering ): When do you think

we'll get to the other side?

Oh, any time now.

( laughs )

( gasps )

Huh? Hmm?

( laughing )

Yeah.

Have some licorice vines.

( laughs )

( screaming )

( all gasping and whimpering )

( laughing )

( laughter and muttering )

Yummy, yummy. Yummy.

Yummy!

There's a place in Candy Land for everyone but me.

For licorice is all but banned when loved is what it should be.

Oh, oh!

This place is run by everyday sweets.

I find it awfully strange.

But don't you pout.

You will soon find out

it's all about to change.

ALL: Yay! ( giggling )

He's going to take over Candy Land.

Oh, this is horrible, a disaster.

Oh, what'll do we do? What'll do we do?

We've got to warn the king.

Good. So, can we get out of here?

It's really dark.

( muttering )

( horn blaring )

Intruders!

Let's make like bananas and split!

( alarm blaring, bells ringing, muttering )

Spies.

Get those snooping sweets, get them!

( all muttering excitedly )

( groaning )

( grunting )

( groaning )

( sighs ): Oh.

( panting )

Yummy...!

( whimpering )

( Licorice Bites laughing )

Yum, yum, yum...

( squawking )

( panting )

( muttering )

Faster. They're gaining on us.

Do something!

( panting )

( muttering )

LICORICE BITE: Yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy!

( muttering )

( yelling and muttering )

( Licorice Bites sighing )

( panting )

Jib. Jib...

( chuckles )

...you saved us. Whoo!

Run, run, run as fast as you can.

You can't catch Jib.

He's the gingerbread man. Whoo!

( squawks )

Oh, dear.

This is horrible.

If we don't

tell the king,

the ginger trees will become licorice trees,

your Peppermint Forest will become Licorice Forest--

uh-huh-- and Gumdrop Pass will become...

Well, you get the picture.

Licorice Forest?

And I'm nearly out of gingerbread icing.

Soon, I won't have any left for the ceremony.

Oh, Jib, Jib, Jib, Jib, Jib,

you worry too much.

Everything'll work out.

( sighs )

I wish I believed you.

Come on, we've got to get back

on the right road

and get to the castle.

We're going to need help.

Maybe we should get a grownup.

You are a grownup.

I am?

Oh! Yeah, I am.

( chuckles )

I meant a grownup grownup.

( chuckles )

LOLLY: Gramma!

Gramma!

Lolly. ( grunts )

( grunts )

( panting )

Oh goodness, Lolly.

What's wrong, dear?

I... I...

I lost my scepter.

I need it for the sweet celebration.

Daddy will be so disappointed in me.

( crying )

Well, you've come to the right place,

my little Lolly.

( chuckles )

( blowing )

So, where are we, Mint?

I'm not sure,

but I'll run over to that house and ask directions.

Oops.

( barks )

Whoo! Visitors.

Come on.

Whoo-hoo!

( barking )

LOLLY: Whee!

( laughter )

( gasps )

Ooh, I love my slides.

It's so easy to get around.

Well, hi there, folks.

I'm Gramma Nut, and this here's Baz.

( grunting )

I seem to be, uh, stuck.

( laughs )

What is this goo?

( laughs )

That's 100% pure peanut butter

under there, right, Lolly?

( grunting )

Lolly? Oh?

Hey, you must be...

Princess Lolly.

Good morning, Your Highness.

I'm Mr. Mint, and this is Jib,

and that's Jolly.

Huh? Ooh.

( chuckling ) Hi there.

It's nice to meet you.

Now, Gramma, what about my scepter?

I need it for...

Uh, excuse me, Your Highness,

it's like this.

Lord Licorice sort of has your scepter,

and he's kinda gonna use it in the sweet celebration.

Good heavens.

If he manages to surround the sweet circle

with licorice and touches it with the scepter,

all of Candy Land will turn to licorice.

I'm supposed to be the one in the circle.

That's my job.

JIB: Really?

I was supposed to be responsible,

but I wasn't.

( cries )

And now Candy Land will be ruined,

and I don't know what to do.

( sobbing )

But there ought to, got to be

something we can do.

( sobbing )

GRAMMA: Now, maybe

you'll think I'm nuts for thinking this...

( laughs )

...but I don't care,

because everything here is nuts already.

( laughing )

She's right.

We can do this.

All we have to do is come up with a way

to trap Lord Licorice and steal the scepter back.

MINT: We can do it.

( laughing )

We can do it.

( laughing )

Oh...

Oops.

Hey, I've got an idea.

Listen to this.

Okay.

Well, come on, tell us.

( whispering )

BITES: Yummy, yummy, yummy...

( grunting )

So, did you catch them?

Uh...

Yummy, yummy, yummy...

Great. Just great.

Oh, well, so what if I lost the element of surprise?

I still have the scepter.

Bites-- my carriage.

Yummy, yummy, yummy...

( all groaning and saying "yummy" )

( bites groaning louder )

Yummy, yummy, yummy...

To the castle!

( groaning )

Oh, oh, dear.

Oh, my.

Frostine, have you seen your sister?

Don't worry, Daddy.

You can count on Lolly.

Oh, I've looked all over the castle.

She's not here.

And there's only two gum balls left.

Oh.

BITES: Yummy, yummy, yummy...

Faster, my chewy chums.

That gingerbrat and mint menace

couldn't have gotten very far on foot.

( groaning and repeating ): Yummy, yummy, yummy...

Oh. I don't remember this part of the castle.

Hmm. Must be a shortcut.

Onward, my licorice-y lumpkins!

Yummy, yummy, yummy...

( laughing )

Nice job, Jolly.

Yeah, good work.

Now, go to your second trick.

Let's go.

BITES: Yummy, yummy, yummy...

Oh, come on, you lazy bites!

( panting and groaning )

What in the world are we doing up here?

And what's with all the slides?

Oh!

( yelling )

( yelling )

( grunting )

Hey, get me out of here.

What's the big idea? I'm stuck!

Thank you,

you big licorice stick-in-the-mud.

Oh, my scepter!

( angrily ): Yum! Yum, yum, yum.

( yelling )

( happy yelling )

( grunting and groaning )

( cheering and laughing )

MINT: Like Jib always says, "Stick to the road."

( laughing )

Great! We've got the scepter,

Lord Licorice is trapped, and the bites are stuck.

Hey, some of them got loose.

We have to stop them.

( tires screeching )

Not to worry, Lolly.

This is what I call a cracker of a good time.

Yahoo!

Well, let's go.

If we hurry, we can still make it on time.

( all yelling )

Come on, gang.

We're almost there.

( bell tolling )

Oh, no! There's only one gum ball left.

We've got to hurry.

Don't despair, Princess.

( laughing )

I know a shortcut.

Good grief.

Not another shortcut.

Whoa! Wow!

( dog whines )

MINT: Here it is.

( laughing ): The chocolate swamp.

Where's the shortcut?

Your shortcut is cut short.

Oh, terrific.

Now how do we get across?

Uh, you've got wings, Your Highness.

Oh. Of course.

This'll be a breeze.

( gasps )

( squealing and laughing )

Hooray!

( laughing )

( grunts )

Whoa!

Jib!

No!

Jib!

He's stuck!

We've got to do something!

Please help me.

MINT: Oh, oh, oh, Jib.

Oh, ah!

Mr. Mint, please help him!

Help. He wants help.

LICORICE: Hurry, you lazy bites!

( gasping )

I want that scepter!

Oh, no. Lord Licorice. Hurry!

MINT: Jib, grab hold!

( grunting )

Oh, no!

Go on ahead, Princess, go!

Don't worry about us, Princess.

Keep going.

You and the scepter have got to get to the castle.

Oh. Oh. Oh...

I'm coming, Jib!

Hold on!

Your hand!

LICORICE: Ooh, what a fine target.

( gasps )

( chuckles )

( yelling )

Well, well, if it isn't those conniving confections?

Now it's your turn to be stuck.

Oh, and what's this?

A royal scepter, just sitting there.

Oh, no, not again!

BITES: Yum!

Whoa.

Yum, yum, yum...

( bites grunting and Licorice chuckling )

Oh, by the way,

there's more than just chocolate in that swamp.

There's a great, huge...

( loud, roaring yell )

Exactly.

What was that?

Swamp gas?

Yummy, yummy, yummy.

Well, enjoy your swim.

I'm due at the castle to take over Candy Land.

( laughs )

Ta-ta.

♪ Here, licorice there, far as you can see... ♪

( chortling )

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

Here I come.

( laughing )

Uh-oh.

Whoa!

Holy strawberries, are we in a jam!

We've got to get out of here.

( creature yelling )

( gasps )

( gasping )

( yelling )

( yelling )

Hug! Hug!

Huh?

Hug! Hug!

Jib, don't!

Hug.

Oh.

It's okay. He doesn't want to hurt anyone.

He just wants a hug.

Come on, everybody,

team hug.

Ah, hug.

( all laughing )

Uh, I don't know your name, big fella,

but if you could help us, we'd really appreciate it.

We've got to warn the king.

Lord Licorice is gonna turn

everything into licorice.

Oh.

Uh-huh.

( chuckling ): Thanks.

You're kind of gloppy, but it's been a lot of fun.

Hug.

Gee.

Oh. Oh.

Thanks.

Come on, Mr. Mint, we have to hurry!

Right behind ya. See ya.

Uh-huh!

( all gasping )

( laughing )

In a few glorious moments,

when the gumball machine delivers its last gumball,

then the magic of the sweet celebration

will turn all of Candy Land into licorice!

( laughing )

( gasping )

( grunting )

( grunting )

Stop, you fiend.

( chuckles )

Let's all enjoy the countdown, shall we?

( ticking )

( laughing )

( laughing )

Any second now.

Psst. Hey.

Huh?

( growling )

( screaming )

( squealing )

( ticking )

( growling )

( panicked gasping )

( growling )

Ug! Ug!

Uh-oh.

( growling )

Nice try, you troublesome treats.

( dinging )

( Lord Licorice laughs )

( both gasping )

Now, let me hear the sweet sound of that gum.

( all yelling "Yum! Yum! Yum! )

( cymbal crashing )

( groaning )

Feel like flying?

Yay!

( people cheering )

( grunts )

Huh?

Mine again. Ha!

Dum-da-da-do!

( chuckles )

( chuckles )

Yeah, I got it, yeah.

( laughs )

( laughing )

( all chanting ): Yummy, yummy, yummy!

( screaming )

( grunts )

( laughs )

Yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy,

yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy,

yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy... Yeah!

( grunts )

( all chanting ): Yummy, yummy, yummy!

( growls )

( grunts )

Oh!

( grunts )

( groans )

( growls )

( whistles )

Flatten them!

( shouting )

Ah, thank you.

( laughs )

Bites, take your places.

BITES: Yummy!

I'm sure you're anxious to meet your new king:

me. ( all gasp )

There ought to... got to be...

We can't be stuck. Stuck?

Stuck! That's it!

Now nothing can stop me!

( laughing )

Oh, no. There's hardly any left.

Sorry, Mom.

( grunts )

( laughing )

( grunting )

( groaning )

( creature growling )

JIB: Look!

Right there.

Ha! Not that old gag again.

Hug!

Ug!

( gasps )

( screaming )

( laughs ): Thanks, pal.

Unhand me, you sloppy goop!

( muffled protesting )

( all screaming )

( grunts )

Oh!

( grunts )

Ooh!

( bubbling noise )

( laughs )

( sighs )

Quickly now, before time runs out.

Everyone, present your gifts.

( chuckles ): Whoo.

( gurgles )

( sighs )

Your gifts are graciously welcomed.

Wait, we're missing one offering.

Jib?

I have nothing left.

( sighs )

I've failed you, Mother.

Jib, if you hadn't sacrificed your icing,

your friends would still be in danger.

You saved the day.

Wrong, Lolly. Look.

I have no gift to offer.

( laughing )

How perfect.

You wasted your icing, and the celebration is ruined.

Now nothing will bloom!

( laughing )

( sniffles )

I'm so sorry.

( sobbing )

( crowd gasping and exclaiming )

Jib!

Huh?

Jib, my boy,

you are the gift.

Huh?

We've always thought that Candy Land blooms

because of what you bring,

but this, young man, has shown us

that it blooms because of who you are.

You, all of you, are the sweet circle.

( all gasping and exclaiming )

( chuckles )

Pepperminty-rific.

Whoo!

There you go.

( all gasping and exclaiming )

Wow!

A new road!

( all gasping and exclaiming )

( all cheering )

No, no, no, no!

Oh, lollipops!
