1. Oh, hello!
Copy !req
2. Ha! Welcome to parents' night.
Copy !req
3. I'm Principal Magnusson. Oh!
Copy !req
4. Ah. Uh, thank you.
Copy !req
5. No. Thank you for coming.
Copy !req
6. Make sure you stay for our grand finale.
Copy !req
7. A dedication ceremony for our new statue.
Copy !req
8. He seems nice.
Copy !req
9. He is! He is!
Copy !req
10. He's one of our city's great founders,
Edmund "the Troll Slayer" Ahlberg.
Copy !req
11. Oh, how I do love civic art dedications.
Copy !req
12. Now, I don't want to give too much away,
but I may read a poem.
Copy !req
13. Mm, lovely.
Copy !req
14. This is my nature collection: nittens.
Copy !req
15. I swear I picked these
out of your hair myself.
Copy !req
16. You did.
Copy !req
17. Ugh, I could do without seeing them again,
to be honest.
Copy !req
18. Yeah, but no one else around here
has ever seen nittens.
Copy !req
19. Besides, I couldn't bring
a rock collection 'cause David did one.
Copy !req
20. Oh, great job, son.
Copy !req
21. That box is filled right to the brim.
Copy !req
22. Oh, sweetie, this is the best work
you've ever done!
Copy !req
23. Hiya!
Copy !req
24. I'm so proud of you, Hilda.
Copy !req
25. I know you were nervous about school,
Copy !req
26. but it seems like
you're adapting very well.
Copy !req
27. Thanks, Mum.
Copy !req
28. Of course, it helps to have
Frida and David around.
Copy !req
29. Hilda, there you are!
Copy !req
30. When you were three minutes late,
I was afraid you weren't coming.
Copy !req
31. Come and see my project.
Copy !req
32. They grow up so fast,
don't they?
Copy !req
33. - Alfur?
- Oh, don't worry.
Copy !req
34. Now that you can see me,
I'll keep you company
Copy !req
35. when Hilda's with her friends.
Copy !req
36. See? All that paperwork was worth it.
Copy !req
37. - Shh! What are you doing here?
Copy !req
38. Writing a report on Hilda's school.
Copy !req
39. The elves are very interested
in what she does all day.
Copy !req
40. - They are?
- Oh, yes.
Copy !req
41. Life in the elf counties is quite dull
Copy !req
42. now that you two aren't obliviously
stomping on our houses every day.
Copy !req
43. I'm not sure it's a good idea
for you to be here.
Copy !req
44. No one else can see me.
It'll be fine.
Copy !req
45. All right.
Just keep a low profile.
Copy !req
46. I could hardly do otherwise.
Copy !req
47. We'd like to begin with a short film
about the history of our school.
Copy !req
48. Trevor?
Copy !req
49. Yes, Ms. Hallgrim.
Copy !req
50. Over 300 years ago,
Edmund Ahlberg founded a school
Copy !req
51. based on the proven values of structure,
discipline, and treating every student
Copy !req
52. - exactly the same.
Copy !req
53. His vision still guides us today...
Copy !req
54. - My nature collection!
Copy !req
55. What happened here?
Copy !req
56. Looks like someone
threw David's rocks at the projector.
Copy !req
57. Someone?
Copy !req
58. - Why are you saying it like that?
- Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
59. Are you saying I did it?
Copy !req
60. You were the one standing
closest to the rocks, Hilda.
Copy !req
61. I would never! I love rocks!
Copy !req
62. This an odd-looking one.
Copy !req
63. Wait, this looks kind of like a—
Copy !req
64. Looks kind of like it could be dangerous.
Copy !req
65. This one's liable to put an eye out.
Copy !req
66. I'd better put these away
so they don't tempt
Copy !req
67. whoever did this to try again.
Copy !req
68. Is everything all right?
Copy !req
69. Actually, I wonder if we could chat,
privately, once I get all this cleaned up.
Copy !req
70. Oh, certainly.
Copy !req
71. I didn't do anything, I swear.
Copy !req
72. I'm sure we can straighten this all out
when we talk to her.
Copy !req
73. - Your mother can be very persuasive.
- Oh, thank you, Alfur.
Copy !req
74. But why would Ms. Hallgrim blame me?
Copy !req
75. She loves me.
Copy !req
76. - Uh, Hilda, can we talk for a second?
- Sure.
Copy !req
77. Excuse me, Mum.
Copy !req
78. Here's the thing.
Copy !req
79. Uh, Ms. Hallgrim doesn't really love you.
Copy !req
80. She doesn't?
Copy !req
81. Um, it's just you're not the best
at following the rules.
Copy !req
82. But how could King Olaf Tryggvason
have lost the Battle of Svolder
Copy !req
83. when he had the superior fleet?
Copy !req
84. Hilda, please raise your hand.
Copy !req
85. Also, this is science class.
Copy !req
86. Hilda, this is a troll drill.
Copy !req
87. Follow the procedure.
Copy !req
88. Trust me, if a troll were here,
this wouldn't help you at all.
Copy !req
89. Who cares how much the apples cost?
Copy !req
90. The real question is why one man
needs to buy so many apples.
Copy !req
91. Is he feeding some kind of apple monster?
Copy !req
92. Hilda, school's over!
Copy !req
93. I can't believe no one else was bothered
by that apple thing.
Copy !req
94. That's not how school works, Hilda.
Copy !req
95. We answer the questions they give us,
we don't think up new questions.
Copy !req
96. But that's the fun part.
Copy !req
97. Why would they even ask us questions
they already know the answers to?
Copy !req
98. That's just the way it is.
Copy !req
99. I think Ms. Hallgrim
might want to transfer you
Copy !req
100. to the class of students
with behavioral difficulties.
Copy !req
101. I don't have behavioral difficulty.
Copy !req
102. David, would you say
I'm disruptive in class?
Copy !req
103. No, I wouldn't say that in class.
Copy !req
104. What if the teacher were talking?
It might be disruptive.
Copy !req
105. No, I mean, would you say
that I am disruptive when I am in class?
Copy !req
106. Oh. Yes.
Copy !req
107. What? Really?
Copy !req
108. But I don't mind.
Copy !req
109. That way, Ms. Hallgrim's too busy
to call on me.
Copy !req
110. Oh, look, it's Frida's parents!
Copy !req
111. Perhaps we should go say hi.
Copy !req
112. Good idea.
Copy !req
113. But I'll say hi. You say nothing.
Copy !req
114. Are you talking to yourself?
Copy !req
115. No, I'm talking to Al... uh...
Copy !req
116. Yeah. Yeah, I am.
Copy !req
117. Hello, I'm Johanna, Hilda's mother.
Copy !req
118. Oh, Hilda!
Copy !req
119. You're the ones
who lived out in the wilderness.
Copy !req
120. Yep.
Copy !req
121. Of course! That explains it.
Copy !req
122. I can't believe Ms. Hallgrim thinks
I'm a problem student.
Copy !req
123. Mum was so proud of me
for adapting to school.
Copy !req
124. Maybe we can get you out of trouble
if we find the culprit.
Copy !req
125. Who do you think broke the projector?
Copy !req
126. The rock!
Copy !req
127. David, you have a troll rock
in your collection!
Copy !req
128. - A troll rock?
- Shh!
Copy !req
129. - It's the one with the nose.
- But it's so small.
Copy !req
130. Well, it was small.
Copy !req
131. I guess it has grown a bit.
Copy !req
132. It's a baby. Where did you find it?
Copy !req
133. Near the wall, when we were doing
our Sparrow Scout project.
Copy !req
134. It must have come through
the vittra tunnel we found.
Copy !req
135. The daylight keeps him in rock form.
Copy !req
136. He woke up when the curtains closed.
Copy !req
137. - And when he got shut in a desk.
- Right.
Copy !req
138. But once the sun sets, we'll have
no way to turn him back into a rock.
Copy !req
139. The sun's setting now!
Copy !req
140. We'd better get him
out of here right away.
Copy !req
141. Hilda, a troll in Trolberg
is kind of a big deal.
Copy !req
142. That's why we have
a huge wall around the city.
Copy !req
143. I heard about a kid
who got caught with a troll rock
Copy !req
144. and went to jail for 50 years.
Copy !req
145. - What if it's an accident?
- Then you get a hundred years.
Copy !req
146. They really, really don't want
anyone doing it by accident.
Copy !req
147. Then we'll have to get it
out of the school
Copy !req
148. and back over the city wall.
Copy !req
149. Ms. Hallgrim's back!
Copy !req
150. How are we even going
to get into her desk?
Copy !req
151. I've got an idea.
Copy !req
152. You want me to pick a lock
and let a baby troll out of a desk drawer?
Copy !req
153. You certainly like
helping trolls, don't you?
Copy !req
154. - It just tends to come up a lot.
Copy !req
155. - Hmm?
Copy !req
156. I'm going to jail!
Copy !req
157. Hmm.
Copy !req
158. Oh, no!
Copy !req
159. She's going to tell my mum
I'm a problem student.
Copy !req
160. Graphic design!
Copy !req
161. Why, that is a fascinating field.
You must be very talented.
Copy !req
162. To be honest, it's been a bit
of a rough go since moving to town.
Copy !req
163. So sorry to interrupt,
but would now be a good time to talk?
Copy !req
164. Oh, uh, sure.
Copy !req
165. Hilda, can you come with us, please?
Copy !req
166. Maybe you could send
your parents to distract her.
Copy !req
167. I can't.
Copy !req
168. I've been trying to keep
my parents away from her, too.
Copy !req
169. They want to ask for extra work to bring
my math score from 99 to a hundred.
Copy !req
170. What is that?
Copy !req
171. Oh, Mum, look! Ms. Hallgrim is free!
Copy !req
172. Ms. Hallgrim, I'm glad we caught you.
Copy !req
173. I'm sure you're aware
that Frida's math score has slipped.
Copy !req
174. Ms. Hallgrim's watching me.
It's up to you to get the troll rock.
Copy !req
175. Take Alfur.
Copy !req
176. Get him onto the desk
and let him do the rest.
Copy !req
177. He tickles.
Copy !req
178. But we really do
consider this to be extremely important.
Copy !req
179. Now, go. Hurry!
Copy !req
180. Are you off my hand yet?
Copy !req
181. Yes, for quite some time, actually.
Copy !req
182. Surely you'd agree
a student's achievements should be
Copy !req
183. limited only by her willingness to strive.
Copy !req
184. - Hurry, David.
Copy !req
185. Alfur, where are you? Is everything okay?
Copy !req
186. - Peachy!
Copy !req
187. - Done.
- Yes!
Copy !req
188. Hey, what about me?
Copy !req
189. Oh, no!
Copy !req
190. We're too late.
Copy !req
191. - David, are you all right?
- I'm fine.
Copy !req
192. - I'm just, uh, dancing.
- Yes, he is.
Copy !req
193. - I'm dancing, too!
- Me, too.
Copy !req
194. I'm watching them dance.
Copy !req
195. What? It's gone.
Copy !req
196. Where did it go?
Copy !req
197. Where did what go?
Copy !req
198. Uh, the dancing bug, it's gone.
Copy !req
199. I don't want to dance now.
Copy !req
200. - He's loose!
Copy !req
201. What is going on?
Copy !req
202. Uh, it must be one of those earthquakes
that only furniture can feel.
Copy !req
203. Oh, I've read about those.
They're very real.
Copy !req
204. Oh!
Copy !req
205. Ow!
Copy !req
206. Oh!
Copy !req
207. Hi, Frida.
Copy !req
208. Hilda!
Copy !req
209. Hilda!
Copy !req
210. - Who said that?
- It's a ghost!
Copy !req
211. She's doing this. She's a witch!
Copy !req
212. I knew it.
Copy !req
213. - Ah! There it is!
Copy !req
214. And I thought tonight would be boring.
Copy !req
215. - Hilda, what are you doing?
- I— I can explain.
Copy !req
216. - It's... there!
Copy !req
217. Ow! Oh!
Copy !req
218. Hilda?
Copy !req
219. Uh... hi.
Copy !req
220. Hilda! Hilda, get back here!
Copy !req
221. Come on!
Copy !req
222. Hilda!
Copy !req
223. So, you're Hilda's mother.
Copy !req
224. What did that monster of yours
do to my son?
Copy !req
225. He's so fearful now
he won't even go near a bird.
Copy !req
226. Why am I itching?
Copy !req
227. Oh, I knew those nittens were a bad idea.
Copy !req
228. Where'd he go?
Copy !req
229. Oh! Whoops!
Copy !req
230. Hope you're not leaving yet.
Copy !req
231. You wouldn't want to miss
the statue unveiling.
Copy !req
232. Ah! Oh, no, of course not.
Copy !req
233. We're just, uh,
racing to the girls' room.
Copy !req
234. And also the boys' room.
Copy !req
235. Good, good.
Copy !req
236. You know what they say
about sculpture. Ahem.
Copy !req
237. "The chisel is the lightning that brings
life to the clay of the stone."
Copy !req
238. You know what?
That would go well in my speech.
Copy !req
239. I'd better go rehearse again!
Copy !req
240. Oh!
Copy !req
241. Great. Break a leg!
Copy !req
242. Oh, wait! No running in the—
Copy !req
243. Hallgrim!
Copy !req
244. - Don't forget about—
- The statue of dedication, I know!
Copy !req
245. Oh.
Copy !req
246. Why am I itchy all of a sudden?
Copy !req
247. There!
Copy !req
248. It's in the ventilation system.
Copy !req
249. You'll have to crawl in after it.
Copy !req
250. Allow me.
Copy !req
251. A Sparrow Scout is always prepared.
Copy !req
252. Vents are so much bigger in films.
Copy !req
253. I've got an idea.
Copy !req
254. Hilda, I'm very fond of you,
but I'm afraid I must decline.
Copy !req
255. - Then what do we do?
Copy !req
256. Uh-oh.
Hilda?
Copy !req
257. We need to chat.
Copy !req
258. Mum's quite good at finding nittens...
if you need help.
Copy !req
259. No, thank you.
Copy !req
260. I've been concerned
about Hilda's behavior for a while.
Copy !req
261. But tonight, Hilda has proven
Copy !req
262. that she simply cannot fit
the mold of a proper student.
Copy !req
263. And she's dragging Frida and David
down with her.
Copy !req
264. I recommend moving Hilda
to a small transitional class
Copy !req
265. that can offer more... personal attention.
Copy !req
266. I'm sorry, Mum.
Copy !req
267. I guess I haven't adapted
as well as you thought.
Copy !req
268. Nonsense.
Copy !req
269. Hilda, you're staying right where you are.
Copy !req
270. Huh?
Copy !req
271. Ms. Hallgrim, I don't know
what got into Hilda tonight,
Copy !req
272. but the fact that she dragged
her friends into it is an excellent sign.
Copy !req
273. Did you hear that?
Copy !req
274. Hilda, this kind of interruption is just
the sort of thing I'm talking about.
Copy !req
275. - Please continue.
Copy !req
276. Ms. Hallgrim,
Hilda needs her friends to grow.
Copy !req
277. Ever since they met,
she's learned a lot from them.
Copy !req
278. If you pull Hilda out of their class,
you'll be setting her back.
Copy !req
279. Well, perhaps we can give Hilda
a little more time to—
Copy !req
280. What on Earth? Ow!
Copy !req
281. What's going on?
Copy !req
282. Got you!
Copy !req
283. Is that... a troll?
Copy !req
284. Yep, but I'd be more worried
about that one.
Copy !req
285. A troll in the city!
Copy !req
286. - We've got to sound the alarm.
- No!
Copy !req
287. We don't want a crisis.
Copy !req
288. - This is a crisis!
- Don't.
Copy !req
289. It'll cause a panic and fighting,
Copy !req
290. and David will go to jail
for a hundred years.
Copy !req
291. She doesn't want to cause trouble.
Copy !req
292. Hilda, get back!
Copy !req
293. Mama.
Copy !req
294. Ah!
Copy !req
295. She just came for her baby. See?
Copy !req
296. How did you know?
Copy !req
297. I'm afraid that's
the sort of thing she excels at.
Copy !req
298. So, Ms. Hallgrim's
letting you stay in our class?
Copy !req
299. And she's not telling anyone
about the trolls?
Copy !req
300. - How did you swing that?
- We've come to... an understanding.
Copy !req
301. Your daughter really is a remarkable girl.
Copy !req
302. I have terrible news! Horrible news!
Copy !req
303. It's a catastrophe!
Copy !req
304. Oh, my heart hurts.
Copy !req
305. Oh, please, no!
Copy !req
306. - Why?
- What happened?
Copy !req
307. The statue dedication is canceled!
Copy !req
