Snow Day/Transcript

-Hey, that's pretty cool. -Well, it's not.

Every year, one townsperson disappears, never to be seen again.

And there's the weird dark turn.

It's serious, Anne. Look around you.

-Possible goodbye, Wally. -Possible goodbye.

Possible goodbye, Ivy.

Possible goodbye, Toadie.

-Possible goodbye, Archie. -[squeaking]

Possible goodbye, Sprig.

Possible goodbye, Hop Pop.

Possible goodbye, family.

And of course, Anne.

-Not so fast. -What?

-Harsh. -You're kinda spittin' on tradition, Anne.

There will not be any goodbyes this year.

Because this year, Wartwood has me.

-[all] Huh? -What?

Yeah, I don't follow.

Um, hello! I'm warm-blooded.

That's gross, Anne.

It means I won't freeze.

I can be your protector.

And under my watch, no one will disappear again.

-[clunk] -Ow.

-[all cheering] -Whoo-hoo!

[all] Anne! Anne! Anne!

Wow. You've gone from town beast to town protector.

Big fan of that narrative.

All right. Hiber Day isn't till tomorrow.

So, everybody meet back here tonight.

Then Anne can guard all of us.

-We're gonna live! -Thank goodness Anne's here.

I'm gonna burn my will.

Anne, are you sure about this?

Looking after the whole town's a lot of responsibility.

Are you kidding? I've totally got this.

I feel like my time here has all been leading up to this moment.

It's like fate and karma combined into one.

Like kate or fartma.

Those are both terrible. But anyway,

all my senses feel heightened.

It's like the whole world has slowed down

and I'm totally aware of everything all around me.

You ever feel like that, guys?

Guys? What?

[yells] What the heck?

[wind whistles]

This can't be good.

-[squawks] -[shatters]

Oh, no! Hiber Day is here early.

Everybody is all over the place by now.

How am I gonna get them back to--

Oh. Oh, wow. This is very light.

[humming]

Welp, that's everyone.

Heh, that was surprisingly easy.

Town protector. Yea-yuh!

And now all I have to do is watch 'em.

[yells]

[vocalizing]

Okay, I'm bored.

And a bored protector is a bad protector.

So I'm gonna need to thaw someone out.

Let's see. Eeny, meeny, miney, Sprig.

Phew! This is harder than I thought.

Thaw already, Sprig.

[sighs]

Whoa!

Where am I? What's goin' on?

Sprig! Boy, am I glad to see you, buddy. Uh...

You okay, dude?

I's awake, yes?

Yeah.

Let's thaw out the others. [groans]

Uh... I'm thinking we should let nature run its course.

You frogs don't seem to do well in the cold.

Why you say that?

Water angels.

Well...

Since you're already awake anyways,

let's go have some fun. We've got the whole town to ourselves.

Let's do it!

Hey, Sprig. Catch.

Meh. Caught it.

-Eh. -Eh.

Oh, Mrs. Croaker, I never noticed how marry-able you are.

You too, Wally. Come in for some kisses.

[kissing]

-[giggles] -[kissing]

[giggles] They're kissing.

Whoo-hoo!

[both laughing]

Look at it, Sprig. It's beautiful.

No, no! Don't hurt Mommy.

-[groans] -[giggling]

[giggling]

All right, enough. We had our fun.

But it's time for a little protector duty.

Let's do a head count, make sure everyone is still here.

You got it.

Am I still here?

We got Tom, Soggy Joe, Jill, Cashmere the Soft.

Hop Pop, check. Polly, check.

Ivy-- Polly?

Polly? No! No, no, no, no, no.

She's gone! What kind of protector am I?

Is something wrong with Polly?

Yes, Sprig. She's gone.

[sighs] This is all my fault. We've got to get her back.

All right!

Is something wrong with Polly?

Wow. Never tracked anything in snow before.

It's hard.

[grunting]

Hey! Who wants a nap?

[snoring]

[grunts]

Just hang on, Sprig. You can go back to hibernating

as soon as we find Polly.

Polly...

[sniffing]

I smell a Polly.

Polly's in that creepy cave.

Of course she is.

You know, no matter how long I'm in this world,

I'll never get used to the piles of bones just lying around.

Hey. That icicle looks just like Polly.

Ah! Polly!

How'd she get up there?

Is she magic?

[rumbling]

What was that?

Whoa!

-[roars] -[screams]

[screeches]

Maybe we can ask this lady. Excuse me, miss--

[grunting]

That's what's been taking the frogs?

I'll keep it busy. You go get Polly.

-[gasps] -Uh, okay.

[grunts]

Wait. Did you mean me?

Mm-hmm.

[snarls]

Polly! Stop dancing around so much. I'm trying to save you.

Hey! Sprig, look out!

Wow. Pointy.

Hey, you big furry freak! Get back here.

-[squeaking] -Huh?

What the...

[chittering]

[snarls]

-Huh? [yells] -[snarls]

No way.

[growling]

You didn't kidnap Polly just to feed yourself?

And if we take her, you'll all starve.

Unless...

Ah, perfect. Maybe just a little more.

-[growling] -Come on, come on. Please work.

[sniffing]

[purrs]

Huh. I guess the power of omelettes is universal.

[panting]

[screams]

[giggles]

[squeaking]

Now that's a protector.

Mm-hmm.

My face feels squishy.

Man, I really shouldn't have thawed you out.

Whoo-hoo!

[both] Five, four, three, two, one.

[Sprig] And thaw, baby, thaw!

-Huh? -Huh? Yee-haw!

-Oh, thank goodness. -We're all here.

We made it through the freeze.

Yay! I'm alive!

Three cheers for Anne, the best town protector there is.

[all] Hip, hip, hooray! Hip, hip, hooray!

Hold it.

[sighs]

I was a terrible town protector, you guys.

I slacked off when I should've been watching you.

I unfroze Sprig when I got bored.

I'm fine.

And worst of all, Polly almost got eaten by a giant weasel.

Say what?

I'm no town protector.

I'm just an irresponsible kid.

Anne, you admitting that means you're more responsible than you think.

Really?

Yeah, if you hadn't fessed up,

we never would have known anything happened.

-Oh, yeah, it's true. -That's a good point.

You may not be perfect, but you proved that we can depend on you.

And, most importantly, this is the first year no one disappeared.

All because of you.

Happy Hiber Day, everyone.

-Yay, Anne! -Whoo!

-Aw. Thanks, you guys. -Hey, everyone.

Check out these funny photos we took.

Sprig, no!

That's my body.

-[all gasping] -Oh, my...

Did you use our frozen bodies as bowling pins?

Uh...
