Scene: Outside the reef village. Ricky, Ella, and Sammy are taking a stroll.
Sammy: Did you guys enjoy that little outing?
Ricky: Yeah.
Ella: Huh?
Ricky: No, it's not that. It's just that nothing very exciting happened. I love it when we run into adventures.
(Coralia swims by)
Coralia: Swim for cover! Shark!
(Sammy, Ricky, and Ella all turn around and see a shark swimming to them. Sammy carries Ricky and Ella, and they all hide in a cave with Coralia)
Sammy: Coralia?
Coralia: Sammy? Well, I'll be!
Ella: Shh!
Coralia: Oh.
(Ella points at the shark who's snarling)
Sammy: Right. On my signal, we all dash towards the rift straight ahead. I got you covered.
Ella: Grandpa, it's too dangerous.
Sammy: Trust me.
Coralia: Little one, when those you love ask you to trust them, you'd better listen to them.
(Sammy swims to a nearby hiding place. The shark notices him)
Sammy: Now! (Coralia carries Ricky and Ella, and they swim towards the rift. The shark is charging to Coralia, but Sammy pushes him away) Quickly! (He grabs onto Coralia's flipper and swims to the entrance to the reef village)
Scene: Reef village
Coralia: Can you imagine that I was peacefully on my way to the beach where I was born when that horrible shark attacked me?
Sammy: The beach where you were born? That means--
Coralia: Yes. I'm going to have babies.
Sammy: But that's fantastic! Would you like to help you find the beach where you were born?
Coralia: That's very kind of you, but I don't think I'll get there in time now. I think they already want to come out.
Sammy: I'll show you a nice, peaceful spot.
Ricky: Can we come?
Sammy: Laying eggs is the most important moment in the life of a turtle. Coralia needs to be alone. But you two, go get Mr. Lulu and tell him to come quick.
Ricky and Ella: All right.
Scene: Island
Sammy: This is a safe spot. No coconuts could fall off this tree, And the view is breathtaking. It's perfect.
Coralia: Thanks, Sammy.
Sammy: Don't mention it. I'll leave you be.
(Sammy walks back to the water, leaving Coralia alone. She looks around the environment)
Coralia: Hmm? Huh?
(Above Coralia, Paul, Ringo, and George are all landing on a nearby palm tree)
Paul: Hmm?
(George nudges on Paul when he notices Coralia)
Seagulls: Huh? (sees that Coralia had laid three eggs) Ahh.
(Lulu arrives)
Lulu: Good day, ma'am. Lulu the Lobster at your service. I've come to watch over your eggs.
Coralia: Oh, don't worry about it. There's no risk here.
Lulu: We're obeying Sammy's orders, ma'am.
Coralia: (covers the nest with sand) In that case, thank you. (walks back to the water)
Seagulls: Huh?
George: My friends, I think I know how we can get rid of that silly lobster.
Scene: Reef village. Sammy, Ricky, and Ella are all waiting for Coralia
Sammy: Hmm. Hmm.
Ella: There she is! (points at Coralia)
Sammy: Huh?
(Coralia arrives)
Coralia: There are three of them.
Sammy: Ah, congratulations!
Coralia: I think I'm going to go rest a while before the hatching takes place.
Ella: The hatching? That must be an incredible thing to see!
Coralia: If you want, you can come with me this time.
(Ricky and Ella both laugh in happiness)
Scene: Island. Lulu is guarding the eggs
Lulu: Huh? (Paul throws a rock nearby) Huh? Who goes there? I'm scared. And what if it's a snake? Do snakes eat turtle eggs? Let's go. Banzai!
(Lulu leaves his post, leading to Paul to fly down to where the eggs are)
Paul: Oh! (digs up the eggs) Delicious omelet, here we come!
(Ringo places the second egg on the nest)
Ringo: Won't the eggshells be kind of disgustingly crunchy?
(Paul arrives with the last egg)
Paul: And what if we waited until the eggs hatched? Shall we put them back in the sand?
George: Too risky. Why don't we just sit on them ourselves?
Ringo: Great idea, George! Right, well, until then, Paul and I will go looking for anchovies to accompany the dish.
Paul: Ha ha ha!
(Ringo flies away)
George: Hmm?
Paul: What? It was your idea, after all.
(Paul flies away, laughing. George sits on the eggs with a sigh. Below, Coralia has arrived with Ricky and Ella)
Coralia: Oh, no. I don't remember where they were. Everything looks the same here.
Ella: Wasn't Mr. Lulu supposed to look after the eggs? We just have to find him.
Ricky and Ella: Mr. Lulu! Mr. Lulu! Mr. Lulu!
(Lulu arrives)
Lulu: You-hoo! Over here! Come help me!
Ricky, Ella, and Coralia: Huh?
(Above them, George is waiting for Ringo and Paul to come back. A crack is heard)
George: Hmm?
(George looks down and sees that the eggs have hatched)
Coralia's son: Who are you?
Coralia's daughter: Mommy?
George: Uh... (chuckles) Not at all. No. I am... your... your uncle! Uncle George. (One of the sons is about to fall out of the nest) Ah, hang on, little guy. (picks up the son) Not just yet. You're still too, um... little. (picks up the daughter)
Coralia's son: Uncle George, I'm hungry!
George: Okay, okay, calm down. I'll go get you something to eat, but you stay right here, all right? (places the two children on the nest) What in the world do I think I'm doing? (flies away)
(Below them, Lulu is searching for a "snake")
Lulu: No snakes around here. No, sirree!
Ella: Mr. Lulu, where is Coralia's nest?
Lulu: Well, it's just right there.
(Everyone sees that the eggs are not in the nest)
Coralia: Oh! My eggs have disappeared!
Ella: Hey, look! (points at three white feathers)
Lulu: Hmm. Those are feathers. Seagull feathers.
Ricky and Ella: Seagulls?
(Above them, George has to give Coralia's children some worms to eat)
Coralia's children: Yuck!
George: Now, now. Earthworms are delicious. We-- I mean Uncle George loves them.
Coralia's daughter: Look over there. More Uncle Georges.
George: Huh? (sees Paul and Ringo have come back) Uh... (Coralia's children all wave at Paul and Ringo) Okay, children, we're going to play a game with Uncle George. You go hide. The other uncles must never find you. And don't make any noise, understand? (Paul and Ringo arrives) Uh... (sits on the nest)
Ringo: So?
George: Still nothing.
Paul: Oh, I'm starving. Let's have a look.
George: When one sits on eggs, uh... one must never move. It's bad for the quality of the turtle meat.
Ringo: Ah, yes. Quality is most important.
Coralia: Give me back my eggs!
(The seagulls all look down to see Lulu, Ricky, Ella, and an angry Coralia)
Lulu: Admit it! You're the one who have them, you thieving seagulls!
Paul: Us? Thieves? What do you take us for, a bunch of magpies?
Coralia: My babies are supposed to come out of their shells today, so you had better--
Paul: Today? (to George) You see? Come on, move aside! (He looks inside the nest while George covers his eyes) Hmm? What is she talking about? The eggs haven't hatched yet.
Coralia: You horrible birds! (George looks down at the nest and sees that the eggshells didn't seem to hatch) Give me back my eggs! Otherwise--
Paul: Or otherwise what, Miss Turtle? You gonna climb up the tree here?
Ringo: Ha ha ha! A turtle climbing up a tree. That's a good one, Paul!
(Paul and Ringo both laugh as they fly in circles around Lulu, Ricky, Ella, and Coralia)
Coralia's son: You see, Uncle? Pretty good hiding place, huh?
(George looks down and sees that the children are all hiding inside the eggshells and they have placed a crack eggshell on top of their heads to make it seems like they haven't come out yet)
George: Oh, bravo, my little eggheads. Uncle George is very proud of you. (George watches as Paul and Ringo are still circling around Lulu, Ricky, Ella, and Coralia) I can't let them do this. Psst!
Ella: Ricky, look up there.
George: (waving out his wings) Hey! Hey!
Ricky: What is he doing?
George: They don't understand a thing. (picks up Coralia's daughter)
Coralia's daughter: (waving) Hey!
Ella: Hmm. I think he's telling us to come back later.
Ricky: Coralia, let's go!
Coralia: Never!
Ella: Coralia, when those you love ask you to trust them, you'd better listen to them.
Coralia: Uh... hmm.
(Lulu, Ricky, Ella, and Coralia all walk away. Paul and Ringo both fly back to the nest)
George: Huh?
Paul: We're gonna stay here with you until the birth of our future meal.
Ringo: Yeah, we weren't very nice earlier on. We seagulls need to stick together.
George: Uh... cool.
(Nearby, Coralia, Lulu, Ricky, and Ella are all watching them behind a large plant)
Coralia: And you're sure he wants to give my babies back?
Ella: Yes. I know it sounds crazy, but he really looked like he wanted to help us.
Lulu: Mission: Save the Baby Turtles at nightfall! Until then, let's go get backup.
(Later at night, the seagulls are all sleeping)
Sammy: Psst!
George: (wakes up) Huh?
(George looks down and sees Ray, Sammy, Coralia, Lulu, Ricky, and Ella all waiting for him)
Sammy: He can't get down.
Coralia: And we can't get up there.
(Ella notices a large bamboo)
Ella: There may be a solution.
Sammy: Oh?
George: (sees the bamboo) Huh? (sees that the turtles are trying to adjust the bamboo) Huh? (looks inside the bamboo and sees Ella at the other end) Uh... hmm?
Coralia: Great idea, Ella.
George: (looks at Paul and Ringo who're still sleeping) Hmm? Hmm? (looks at Coralia's children) Now, you little eggheads, we're going to go down a slide. You'll see, it's super-fun.
Coralia's children: Oh, yeah! Cool! Cool!
Paul: Huh? (He yawns and falls back to sleep)
George: Shh. We mustn't wake up Uncle Paul or Uncle Ringo. Down below, a big surprise awaits you.
Coralia's son: And what is it, Uncle?
George: If I told you, it would no longer be a surprise. Come on. (picks up one of Coralia's sons by his beak)
Coralia: Huh?
(George places the son in the bamboo slide)
Coralia's son: Yoo-hoo!
(George did the same thing to Coralia's daughter)
Coralia's daughter: Yoo-hoo! That was awesome!
Coralia's son: Totally!
Coralia: Hello, children. I'm your mother.
(George picks up Coralia's other son)
Coralia's other son: Yoo-hoo!
Paul and Ringo: (wakes up) Huh? The turtles!
(George drops Coralia's other son in the bamboo slide in surprise)
Coralia's other son: Oh! Whoo!
(Paul and Ringo both grab the bamboo with Coralia's other son inside and they fly away with it)
Coralia: Oh, no! My baby!
Coralia's other son: Whoa!
Ella: (to George) Help us!
George: Uh...
(In the sky, Paul and Ringo are carrying the bamboo in both ends)
Paul: We're going to have to split him between the two of us, but that's better than nothing.
(George lands in between Paul and Ringo)
George: What about my share? I'm the one who sat on the eggs, remember?
(Coralia's other son grunts from one of the ends of the bamboo. He jumps down)
Coralia's other son: Yoo-hoo!
(George flies down and grabs him by his beak)
Coralia: Ohh!
(Paul and Ringo both drop the bamboo and follow George)
Coralia's other son: Uncle George, this is super-fun, isn't it?
Paul: George! Come back here!
(The turtles and Lulu all get into the water)
George: Okay, but we have to share. (deliberately drops Coralia's other son)
Coralia's other son: Aaah!
(Coralia's other son lands in the water and Coralia catches him. The turtles and Lulu all swim away)
Ringo: Oh, great. I hope you're happy now.
(Paul and Ringo both fly away)
George: Bye-bye, eggheads.
Scene: Reef village, the next morning. The turtles are all at the entrance to outside the reef
Coralia: I'll never forget what you've done for us.
Coralia's son: Say there, Mommy, when will we come back to see Uncle George?
Coralia: When you're older, most likely. When it'll be your turn to have babies, you'll come back here.
Ricky: And it'll be a brand-new adventure. (laughs)
Coralia and her children: Good-bye!
Ricky, Ella, Sammy, Ray, and Lulu: Bon voyage!
Scene: Island, at dawn. The seagulls are all sitting on a palm tree.
Ringo: Hmm?
(Ringo's stomach rumbles)
George and Paul: Hmm?
Ringo: I'm hungry!
George: What I love snacking on is--
Paul: Shh! Hmm.
