1. All my life,
I've lived and worked in the big city,Copy !req
2. which, now that I think of it,
is kind of a problem,Copy !req
3. since I always feel
uncomfortable around crowds.Copy !req
4. I mean it.
I have this fear of enclosed spaces.Copy !req
5. L-l-l... Everything makes me
feel trapped all the time.Copy !req
6. You know, I always tell myself there's
gotta be something better out there.Copy !req
7. But maybe l...
maybe I think too much.Copy !req
8. I-I-I think everything
must go back to the fact...Copy !req
9. that I had a very anxious childhood.Copy !req
10. You know, my mother
never had time for me.Copy !req
11. When you're the middle child
in a family of 5 million,Copy !req
12. you don't get any attention.Copy !req
13. I mean,
how is it possible?Copy !req
14. And-And I've always had these
abandonment issues which plague me.Copy !req
15. My father was-was basically a drone,
like I've said.Copy !req
16. And, you know, the guy flew away
when I was just a larva.Copy !req
17. And my job, don't get me started on,
because it really annoys me.Copy !req
18. I-I was not cut out to be a worker,
I'll tell you right now.Copy !req
19. I-I-I feel
physically inadequate.Copy !req
20. My whole life,
I've never been able to lift...Copy !req
21. more than 10 times my own body weight.Copy !req
22. And, when you get down to it, handling
dirt is, you know...Copy !req
23. Is not my idea
of a rewarding career.Copy !req
24. It's this whole gung ho,
superorganism thing...Copy !req
25. that... that, you know, I can't get.Copy !req
26. I try, but I don't get it.Copy !req
27. I mean... What is it? I'm supposed
to do everything for the colony.Copy !req
28. And-And what about my needs?
What about me?Copy !req
29. I've gotta believe there's someplace
out there that's better than this.Copy !req
30. Otherwise, I would just curl up
in a larval position and weep.Copy !req
31. The whole system makes me feel...Copy !req
32. Insignificant.Copy !req
33. Excellent.Copy !req
34. - You've made a real breakthrough.
- I have?Copy !req
35. Yes, Z.
You are insignificant.Copy !req
36. I am?Copy !req
37. Ground floor.Copy !req
38. - Uh, worker.Copy !req
39. Soldier.Copy !req
40. Ooh.Copy !req
41. - Uh-oh.
- Worker.Copy !req
42. Let's try it again.Copy !req
43. Firm grip. Swing hard.
Back straight. Concentrate.Copy !req
44. Follow through.Copy !req
45. Okay. I've got to keep
a positive attitude.Copy !req
46. A good attitude, even though
I'm utterly insignificant.Copy !req
47. I'm-I'm insignificant, um,
but with attitude.Copy !req
48. - Oh, sorry, Z.Copy !req
49. - I didn't see ya.
- Great, Azteca.Copy !req
50. It's working already.
I'm so meaningless, I'm invisible.Copy !req
51. Now, you're getting it.Copy !req
52. After all, it's not about you.Copy !req
53. It's about us... the team.Copy !req
54. It's about... this.Copy !req
55. Uh, a giant hole
in the ground?Copy !req
56. - Okay, people. Are we feeling good?
- Yeah.Copy !req
57. - Yeah.
- Great.Copy !req
58. Now, R-1734 through Z-7829,
you guys are on wrecking ball.Copy !req
59. - You got it.
- Swell.Copy !req
60. - You got it.
- All right. Swing time.Copy !req
61. - Let's get physical.
- I love this job.Copy !req
62. Now, remember, Azteca,
"Be the ball."Copy !req
63. That's the main thing.
Now, remember that.Copy !req
64. You know, gotta be
one with the ball.Copy !req
65. Would you cut it out already?Copy !req
66. Jeez. I love my work.
And you, well...Copy !req
67. You think too much.Copy !req
68. Come on, Z. Help us build
a bigger, better colony.Copy !req
69. And, for cryin' out loud,
try to be happy about it.Copy !req
70. Sure, you know.
I mean, why-why...Copy !req
71. How could I possibly be unhappy being
a piece of construction equipment?Copy !req
72. - Okay, workers, remember.
- Here it comes.Copy !req
73. - Be the ball.
- Oh!Copy !req
74. Let the energy flow through you.Copy !req
75. Grin and bear it. This is...
This is for the colony. Oh.Copy !req
76. - Ow. This is...Copy !req
77. This is just a lawsuit
waiting to happen.Copy !req
78. - Hang on. Here we go.
- Faster. Harder.Copy !req
79. Did I happen to mention
that heights make me nauseous?Copy !req
80. No.Copy !req
81. - This is a ball.
- Hey.Copy !req
82. - Oh, Z.
- Yes. Yes. I understand.Copy !req
83. I dropped the ball.Copy !req
84. Workers. They're weak.Copy !req
85. They lack discipline.
They lack commitment.Copy !req
86. General, I know there's
been a glitch or two.Copy !req
87. But everybody is working
full tilt as it is, and...Copy !req
88. You can't help it,
it's your nature.Copy !req
89. But in spite of your limitations,Copy !req
90. you are going to finish
this tunnel on schedule.Copy !req
91. Come hell or high water.Copy !req
92. Anyone who falls behind is going to have
to explain themselves to Colonel Cutter.Copy !req
93. And let me assure you, the colonel
is not as understanding as I am.Copy !req
94. Dismissed.Copy !req
95. Four more days, Cutter.
Four more days.Copy !req
96. Then we can bid final farewell
to their kind of incompetence.Copy !req
97. Yes, sir.Copy !req
98. A fresh start.Copy !req
99. - Imagine it!
- A strong colony, sir.Copy !req
100. A colony we can be proud of.Copy !req
101. Yes, but we're not there yet.Copy !req
102. Cutter, we just got word that
a termite army has mobilized against us.Copy !req
103. Against us?Copy !req
104. We'll have to send troops
deep into hostile territory...Copy !req
105. to attack their colony.Copy !req
106. Attack a termite colony, sir?Copy !req
107. - That's suicide.
- Exactly.Copy !req
108. - Do you have the list I asked for?
- Yes, General.Copy !req
109. These are the units
loyal to the Queen.Copy !req
110. Hm. Then they're
the ones we'll be sending.Copy !req
111. It's a shame.
There's some fine officers here.Copy !req
112. Don't we need the Queen's
approval to declare war?Copy !req
113. Our very next stop, Cutter.Copy !req
114. General, we've been at peace
with that colony for years.Copy !req
115. - Why would they attack us?
- They want our land.Copy !req
116. They're desperate
for more foraging territory.Copy !req
117. Perhaps they think
we've grown soft or weak.Copy !req
118. Why don't we dispatch an ambassador,
negotiate a new treaty?Copy !req
119. - We don't need to send soldiers.
- Believe me.Copy !req
120. Every ant in this colony
is so precious to me.Copy !req
121. - That's why we must strike now.Copy !req
122. We have the element of surprise.Copy !req
123. If the termite shock troops
enter our colony, well...Copy !req
124. Yes, General,
I know what they can do to us.Copy !req
125. - Very well.
- You've made a wise decision.Copy !req
126. In fact, you've insured
the future of this colony.Copy !req
127. Hello, General.Copy !req
128. Princess Bala.
What a nice surprise.Copy !req
129. You look lovelier
each time I see you.Copy !req
130. Thanks. I hope you're not
just here on business.Copy !req
131. Oh, of course...
Of course not.Copy !req
132. Because, um,
it might be nice...Copy !req
133. if we had a conversation once
before we get married.Copy !req
134. You're absolutely right.Copy !req
135. Cutter, schedule some private time
for me and Princess Bala.Copy !req
136. Uh, in fact, sir, there is time
right now for a personal moment.Copy !req
137. We're a few seconds
ahead of schedule.Copy !req
138. Excellent.
Princess.Copy !req
139. Well, a few seconds isn't much,Copy !req
140. but I guess if it's Quality time...Copy !req
141. So, how was your day?Copy !req
142. - Anything interesting happen?
- We declared war.Copy !req
143. Declared war?Copy !req
144. Boy, talk about a rough day.Copy !req
145. Sir, I hate to interrupt,
but time stands still for no ant.Copy !req
146. Princess.Copy !req
147. Mom, could you remind me,
why am I marrying this guy?Copy !req
148. Bala, do we have to argue
about this again?Copy !req
149. We don't seem to have anything
in common. The guy's a stiff.Copy !req
150. Yes, darling.
I know the general may be...Copy !req
151. a little gruff
and somewhat overbearing at times,Copy !req
152. but I know that he cares about you.Copy !req
153. He's just not particularly good
at showing it.Copy !req
154. But you should've seen how persistently
he asked for your hand in marriage.Copy !req
155. But why me?Copy !req
156. Because you're the one
who has to continue my work.Copy !req
157. It's your place, dear.Copy !req
158. - What if I don't like my place?
- Everyone has their place, Bala...Copy !req
159. you, the soldiers, the workers.Copy !req
160. Now, it's not all that bad
being princess, is it?Copy !req
161. Would you prefer to be
carting around dirt all day?Copy !req
162. Mother, don't be so dramatic.Copy !req
163. At least, they seem to have
some fun every now and then.Copy !req
164. - Two aphid beers.
- Why'd I have to be born a worker?Copy !req
165. You soldiers get all the glory,
plus you get to go out in the world.Copy !req
166. You meet interesting insects,
you get to kill them.Copy !req
167. Yeah. But you get to spend
all day with those...Copy !req
168. beautiful worker girls.Copy !req
169. Weaver, they're career girls.
They're obsessed with digging.Copy !req
170. I don't think I'm ever
gonna meet the right girl for me.Copy !req
171. Who said a girl for you?
I was talking about a girl for me.Copy !req
172. Don't you want your aphid beer?Copy !req
173. Call me crazy, but...Copy !req
174. I have a thing about drinking from
the anus of another creature. Okay?Copy !req
175. Suit yourself.Copy !req
176. Ahhh.
Me, I'm cuttin' loose.Copy !req
177. We got royal inspection comin' up.Copy !req
178. Inspection, meaning you're gonna
stand around like an idiot...Copy !req
179. while a bunch of blue bloods
smirk at you.Copy !req
180. I don't know how
you put up with it, Weaver.Copy !req
181. Z, I've known you
for a long time. Right?Copy !req
182. Definitely.
You were born two seconds after me.Copy !req
183. Yeah. And ever since we were little,
I've been listenin' to you complain.Copy !req
184. What are you bitching about?Copy !req
185. In case you haven't noticed,
we ants are running the show.Copy !req
186. We're the lords of the Earth.Copy !req
187. Hey. Don't talk to me
about earth, okay?Copy !req
188. 'Cause I just spent all day
hauling it around.Copy !req
189. There's just
gotta be a better place.Copy !req
190. There is.
I've been there.Copy !req
191. I'm sor... I'm sorry.
Were you talking to me?Copy !req
192. There is a better place...
Insectopia.Copy !req
193. Oh, really.
Lunatic at 3:00.Copy !req
194. You can't understand
till you go there and see it yourself.Copy !req
195. You can be your own ant there.Copy !req
196. The streets are paved with food.Copy !req
197. Nobody tellin' you what to do.Copy !req
198. No wars. No colony.Copy !req
199. - I shoulda never left.
- Oh, yeah. Fascinating.Copy !req
200. We were on a long-range recon.
I got cut off from my unit.Copy !req
201. Nothing like post-traumatic stress
disorder to make your day complete.Copy !req
202. - Then I saw it... Insectopia!
- Hey!Copy !req
203. You head towards the monolith.Copy !req
204. Ten clicks past the great canyons
to the land of red and white.Copy !req
205. Hey, gramps.
You've had enough for one night.Copy !req
206. Come on.
Before you get in trouble.Copy !req
207. Head for the monolith.
Listen to me!Copy !req
208. The monolith!Copy !req
209. That guy's got a screw loose.Copy !req
210. - Cross the lake!
- Insectopia.Copy !req
211. Wouldn't it be great
if it were that easy?Copy !req
212. - Yeah. Dream on, Z.
- Cross the lake.Copy !req
213. Look for the land
of red and white.Copy !req
214. Wow!
This is so... gritty.Copy !req
215. Ten minutes and we're out of here.
Right? This place is off limits.Copy !req
216. Just blame it on me.
Say it was all my idea.Copy !req
217. - It is all your idea.
- Besides, no one's gonna recognize us.Copy !req
218. Come on, girls.
What do you say?Copy !req
219. Let's take a walk
on the wild side.Copy !req
220. Okay, everybody. 6:15. Time to dance.Copy !req
221. - Time to cut a rug, Z.
- Oh, no. That's okay.Copy !req
222. I'm gonna leave the rug
just the way it is, Weaver.Copy !req
223. Step back, ladies.Copy !req
224. I'm gonna ask one of these
workers to dance with me.Copy !req
225. Oh.Copy !req
226. What a bunch of losers.Copy !req
227. Mindless zombies capitulating
to an oppressive system.Copy !req
228. - Hi. Want to dance?
- Absolutely.Copy !req
229. Follow me.Copy !req
230. So, how come I haven't seen you
around here before?Copy !req
231. Oh, I don't get out much.Copy !req
232. I, uh, I work over at the palace.Copy !req
233. Oh, the palace, huh?
I bet those royals really live it up.Copy !req
234. Course they're all a little...
you know... from inbreeding.Copy !req
235. What?Copy !req
236. Yowch!Copy !req
237. Ya-Ya... Yowch!
Yowch.Copy !req
238. - Yowch.
- What on earth are you doing?Copy !req
239. Well, actually, to tell you the truth,
I'm sort of making it up.Copy !req
240. Really?Copy !req
241. Why does everybody
have to dance the same way?Copy !req
242. That's completely boring.
It's... It's monotonous.Copy !req
243. It's no fun.Copy !req
244. Hey.
Watch your step, worker.Copy !req
245. You watch yours, buddy,
or you'll be in big trouble.Copy !req
246. Th-Th-That's okay. I'll...
I'm gonna let him off this time.Copy !req
247. What? Are you crazy?
This guy's built like a pebble.Copy !req
248. Aren't you even
gonna defend yourself?Copy !req
249. Hey, buddy.
Get back in place.Copy !req
250. - Me? Uh... Uh...
- What if he doesn't want to?Copy !req
251. Yeah. What if I don't like my place?Copy !req
252. - What's he talkin' about?
- We got us a troublemaker.Copy !req
253. Buckle up, Spanky.Copy !req
254. This one goes out
to all the lazy workers.Copy !req
255. You ought to watch that
aggressive behavior, buddy.Copy !req
256. He's just a worker.Copy !req
257. Princess Bala! Princess Bala!
The guards are coming.Copy !req
258. - Let's get outta here.
- Wait.Copy !req
259. Princess?
You're a princess?Copy !req
260. Uh, I gotta go.Copy !req
261. - When can I see you again?
- Let me think. Never.Copy !req
262. - Bye.
- No. Wait.Copy !req
263. Yowch.Copy !req
264. - Can I get you another one, pal?
- No, thanks.Copy !req
265. - I think I'm gonna go.
- Yeah. I don't blame you.Copy !req
266. It's always slow in here the night
before one of those royal reviews.Copy !req
267. I guess the soldiers need their shut-eye
before they meet the Queen.Copy !req
268. - I don't blame ya.
- That's it!Copy !req
269. You know, I was once...
See ya.Copy !req
270. Psst.
Weaver.Copy !req
271. I figured it out.
Weaver. Weaver.Copy !req
272. What? What?Copy !req
273. - I got a great idea.Copy !req
274. You gotta switch places with me. Let me
go to the inspection instead of you.Copy !req
275. - What time is it?
- Weaver. The royal family will be there.Copy !req
276. This is the only way
I can see her.Copy !req
277. - See who?
- Princess Bala.Copy !req
278. Are you nuts?Copy !req
279. You want me
to switch places with you?Copy !req
280. Do you know how much trouble
you can get into...Copy !req
281. for even talkin' about
impersonatin' a soldier?Copy !req
282. You can get in trouble
just for listenin'...Copy !req
283. to someone talkin' about
impersonatin' a soldier.Copy !req
284. You have to help me.Copy !req
285. If I can't see her again,
my life is not worth living.Copy !req
286. Pl-Pl-Please, Weaver.
Please.Copy !req
287. Switch jobs with me
just for a day.Copy !req
288. Th-Think of all the things
that I've done for you.Copy !req
289. Hm. I can't
think of any.Copy !req
290. Okay. So, think of all the things
that I'm gonna do for you.Copy !req
291. Would I meet
some worker girls?Copy !req
292. Are you kidding?
They always go after the new guy.Copy !req
293. It's like a sport for them.Copy !req
294. And-And believe me,
they will definitely go...Copy !req
295. - for an adorable little insect like you.
- Mmm.Copy !req
296. Weaver, l...
I have to see her again.Copy !req
297. Z, what kind of chance
do you have with a princess?Copy !req
298. I mean, she probably
won't even remember you.Copy !req
299. l... I know it sounds nuts,
but I have to try.Copy !req
300. Oh, boy.Copy !req
301. What do you say
we lose this crowd?Copy !req
302. Oh, me? You know, l...
I wear many hats.Copy !req
303. I guess you'd have to call me
a Renaissance ant.Copy !req
304. Eyes right!Copy !req
305. - Beautiful! Just beautiful!
- Mm.Copy !req
306. - The precision. The order.
- Oh.Copy !req
307. Princess Bala! Princess Bala!
Hey. It's me.Copy !req
308. Remember Z from the bar?Copy !req
309. Princess Bala!
Princess Bala! Princess...Copy !req
310. Bala, you must
encourage the troops.Copy !req
311. Wave.Copy !req
312. Oh. She sees me.
Excuse me, guys. L-l... Sorry.Copy !req
313. I just got a better offer.
Could you excu...Copy !req
314. Company halt!Copy !req
315. Princess.
Princess Bala.Copy !req
316. Quiet there!
Get back in rank.Copy !req
317. - You new, kid?
- Oh, y-yes, but I'm gettin' out soon.Copy !req
318. I got a trial membership.Copy !req
319. Trial membership.
That's a good one!Copy !req
320. - Name's Barbatus.
- Z.Copy !req
321. - Right face!
- Psst.Copy !req
322. Sacrifice.
To some, it is just a word.Copy !req
323. To others, it is a code.Copy !req
324. - Jeez. I'm really bad at word games.Copy !req
325. A soldier knows that the life
of an individual ant doesn't matter.Copy !req
326. What matters is the colony.Copy !req
327. He's willing to live for the colony,
to fight for the colony,Copy !req
328. to die for the colony.Copy !req
329. - This guy's crazy.
- I hear ya.Copy !req
330. At 0800 hours, we received word
that the termite enemy has mobilized.Copy !req
331. We have no choice
but to launch a preemptive strike.Copy !req
332. You are the Queen's finest.Copy !req
333. I know you will
all do you duty.Copy !req
334. I am proud to send you into battle.Copy !req
335. Into... I'm sor-I'm sorry.
Into battle?Copy !req
336. - Dismissed.
- Left face. Forward march.Copy !req
337. You know, I think
there's been a terrible mistake.Copy !req
338. You know, the truth is I just...
I just came for the speech.Copy !req
339. Don't worry, kid.
I'll watch out for ya.Copy !req
340. - Sound off.
- One!
- Two!Copy !req
341. - Sound off.
- Three!
- Huh?Copy !req
342. - Sound off.
- Five!Copy !req
343. - Six!
- Seven!Copy !req
344. - Eight!
- Nine!Copy !req
345. - Ten!
- Eleven!Copy !req
346. - Twelve!
- Thirteen!Copy !req
347. - So, these termites, they're-they-re...Copy !req
348. These guys aren't gonna put up much of a
fight? We're talkin' pushovers, right?Copy !req
349. Not really, kid.
They're five times our size.Copy !req
350. And they shoot acid
from their foreheads.Copy !req
351. - Hey. Keep it movin', shorty.Copy !req
352. I mean, will we be serving beverages
or processing paperwork?Copy !req
353. Our platoon has the best assignment...
first into battle.Copy !req
354. Huh?Copy !req
355. Hey. Wait a minute. Let's not get...
We're being too hasty here.Copy !req
356. These... These guys
sound like bruisers.Copy !req
357. Just how were you figuring
on beating them?Copy !req
358. Superior numbers, kid. Overwhelm
their defenses and kill their Queen.Copy !req
359. Hey, fellas.
You're being a little extreme, I feel.Copy !req
360. W-Why don't we try
and influence their political processCopy !req
361. with campaign contributions?Copy !req
362. I like you, kid.
You got a sense of humor.Copy !req
363. Forward!Copy !req
364. Come on.
Let's kick some termite butt.Copy !req
365. Over the top!Copy !req
366. - Yeeow!Copy !req
367. - Where is everyone?
- Something's not right.Copy !req
368. Don't be scared, kid.Copy !req
369. Attack!Copy !req
370. Come on.Copy !req
371. Barbatus, you saved my life.Copy !req
372. Ah, don't get all sappy about it.Copy !req
373. - Hey, guys. Look out behind you!Copy !req
374. Hey... Hey, guys.Copy !req
375. Can somebody help me here?
Can anybody... Hey.Copy !req
376. Yeah.Copy !req
377. Okay, mama.
Yeah.Copy !req
378. Oh, yeah. Big guy comin' through.Copy !req
379. I love it.Copy !req
380. Hey. Hey. Hey.
Take it easy, muscles.Copy !req
381. You're makin'
the rest of us look bad.Copy !req
382. What happened to Z?Copy !req
383. He's takin' a personal day,
so I'm fillin' in.Copy !req
384. You fill in any more,
and you'll explode.Copy !req
385. Eh, you got a problem?Copy !req
386. No, uh... uh...Copy !req
387. Nobody told me
digging was so much fun.Copy !req
388. You know, you pick the dirt up.
You move it.Copy !req
389. You pick it up again.
You move it again. Lots of reps.Copy !req
390. You exercise the arms
and the thorax.Copy !req
391. Yes, l...
I see what you mean.Copy !req
392. - Um. Yeah. That is fascinating.
- Sorry, sir.Copy !req
393. I was just havin' a chat
with my friend, sir.Copy !req
394. You know, I just had a chat
with General Mandible.Copy !req
395. Anybody who doesn't meet his Quota
is going to be downsized.Copy !req
396. Come on. Cut him a break.
He's new.Copy !req
397. Hey. What do you say we help
your attitude a little bit...Copy !req
398. by taking away
your rations for the day.Copy !req
399. Thanks for your time.Copy !req
400. I don't know what came over me.Copy !req
401. Talking back like that.Copy !req
402. I must be losin' it.Copy !req
403. Sorry I got you in trouble.Copy !req
404. But, listen, you can...
share my rations. Whoa.Copy !req
405. If you want.Copy !req
406. - Are you askin' me out to dinner?Copy !req
407. Oh, no. L...Copy !req
408. Well, if you don't have
anything else planned.Copy !req
409. I'll check my calendar.Copy !req
410. You know,Copy !req
411. I'm kinda glad
Z's takin' a breather.Copy !req
412. Kid!Copy !req
413. Kid, over here.Copy !req
414. Barbatus.Copy !req
415. Be honest, kid.
Am I hurt bad?Copy !req
416. N-No. N-Not at all. You're...
Actually, you're lookin' terrific.Copy !req
417. You got, you know,
swell color in your cheeks.Copy !req
418. No.
I can see it in your eyes.Copy !req
419. I'm a goner.Copy !req
420. Help me up, Z.Copy !req
421. I can't feel my legs.Copy !req
422. You gotta hang in there, buddy.
I know you're gonna make it.Copy !req
423. Just take... take deep breaths.Copy !req
424. Because I'm gonna try
and find your body.Copy !req
425. It's bound to be
out there somewhere.Copy !req
426. Barbatus, hang on.Copy !req
427. - B-Barbatus.
- Don't make my mistake, kid.Copy !req
428. Don't follow orders
your whole life.Copy !req
429. Think for yourself.Copy !req
430. Barbatus.Copy !req
431. We're on schedule.
Work is completed on "A" section, sir.Copy !req
432. We're clearing a path
through "D" section now.Copy !req
433. We need to push harder, Cutter.
I want double shifts around-the-clock.Copy !req
434. We can't afford to let up.
Is that clear?Copy !req
435. - Crystal, sir.
- Good.Copy !req
436. - What about section...
- Excuse me, sir.Copy !req
437. This had better be important.Copy !req
438. Well, it's about
the termite battle, sir.Copy !req
439. The enemy was destroyed, but it was
a disaster for our troops, as well.Copy !req
440. Well, that's terrible.
Terrible.Copy !req
441. There is good news, sir.
One soldier did make it back.Copy !req
442. - No kidding.
- What did you say?Copy !req
443. Word is spreading
through the colony.Copy !req
444. The Queen requested a meeting
with the war hero.Copy !req
445. Damn! Good.
Damn good.Copy !req
446. Uh, I'll handle this.Copy !req
447. - Congratulations, soldier.Copy !req
448. Well, you're a little short
for a war hero, aren't you?Copy !req
449. A war hero? Sir, I-I don't
actually think that I'm a hero.Copy !req
450. Good.
I don't like heroes.Copy !req
451. - But, sir. You don't understand. L...Copy !req
452. I... I didn't do anything.Copy !req
453. I mean, it was all horrible.
It was just a massacre.Copy !req
454. A-A massacre upon a massacre.Copy !req
455. That's good, soldier.
Now, wave.Copy !req
456. There was nothing
you could do, Weaver.Copy !req
457. You didn't know
they were going to war.Copy !req
458. I just feel horrible.Copy !req
459. Poor Z.
I should have never let him go.Copy !req
460. Wait a minute.
That's no soldier. That's Z!Copy !req
461. Z? The little guy made it!Copy !req
462. Let's go, soldier.Copy !req
463. As I was saying, son,
you are an ant after my own heart.Copy !req
464. An ant that looks death
in the face and laughs.Copy !req
465. Well, actually, the truth is,Copy !req
466. I-I generally just make
belittling comments...Copy !req
467. and snicker behind death's back.Copy !req
468. General Mandible.Copy !req
469. Keep your comments to yourself.
Let me do the talking.Copy !req
470. May I present
Her Majesty the Queen.Copy !req
471. Charmed. Charmed.Copy !req
472. And the Royal Princess Bala.Copy !req
473. Welcome home, soldier.Copy !req
474. We cannot begin to express
our gratitude for your heroic efforts.Copy !req
475. The private has asked me
to convey his most humble appreciation.Copy !req
476. Please. Please.
It was nothing really.Copy !req
477. Just your average
run-of-the-mill valor...Copy !req
478. and extraordinary courageousness,
you know.Copy !req
479. In the heat of battle,
there's very little time to think.Copy !req
480. One must attack! Attack! Attack!Copy !req
481. - Well, indeed.Copy !req
482. As you can see, Your Highness, the
battlefield is still fresh in his mind.Copy !req
483. So, begging your pardon, but this is
the perfect time to debrief the private.Copy !req
484. Oh, please, General.
Not on our first date.Copy !req
485. Not on our first date.Copy !req
486. Haven't I seen you
somewhere before?Copy !req
487. Well, maybe.
Then again, maybe not.Copy !req
488. And then... then again.Copy !req
489. - Yowch.
- That's it! You're the guy from the bar.Copy !req
490. - Don't... Shh.
- Bar? What bar?Copy !req
491. I danced with this guy at the bar
the other night.Copy !req
492. He was just a worker then.Copy !req
493. - What were you doing at a bar?
- Precisely what I want to know.Copy !req
494. No. This isn't about me.Copy !req
495. I mean, look at this worker.
Look what he's done.Copy !req
496. I think you're thinkin' of someone else.
After all, I am a soldier.Copy !req
497. Exactly.
You were a worker.Copy !req
498. But now, you're a war hero.Copy !req
499. - He's a worker?
- A worker danced with my fiancee?Copy !req
500. F-Fiancee?
W-W-Wait a minute.Copy !req
501. This is not how it looks.
I can explain this.Copy !req
502. Hey. She was the one
making all the moves.Copy !req
503. Arrest him.Copy !req
504. H-Hey wait a minute. Take it easy.
Can't we discuss this?Copy !req
505. What are you doing?
Let go of my daughter.Copy !req
506. He's taking her hostage!Copy !req
507. No. No. I'm not.
I mean, yes, I am.Copy !req
508. One more step
and then the princess gets it.Copy !req
509. Let go of me!Copy !req
510. Ow!
Don't make me hurt her.Copy !req
511. Oh.Copy !req
512. What are you doing, you creep?Copy !req
513. Are you out of your puny little mind?Copy !req
514. There they are down there!
Let's go. Move. Move. Move.Copy !req
515. Oh, good.Copy !req
516. Here they come
to rescue me and kill you.Copy !req
517. Kill?Copy !req
518. - Hey, you guys.
- Stop it. Stop it.Copy !req
519. - What are you tryin' to do?
- Get off me, you little twerp!Copy !req
520. What do you want to do?
Throw away everything we've got?Copy !req
521. What're you waiting for?Copy !req
522. Hello. Guys.Copy !req
523. - Huh?
- What is it?Copy !req
524. It's beautiful.Copy !req
525. Ridgeway, get out of there!Copy !req
526. - Oh. Don't worry. I'm okay.
- You?Copy !req
527. You're okay?
Hey. Who cares about you?Copy !req
528. - I almost died here.
- Will you please calm down?Copy !req
529. You're not gonna let a little near-death
experience ruin your mood, are you?Copy !req
530. Hey. This is not a mood.
You're not listening to me.Copy !req
531. Where am I?Copy !req
532. Look, what's-your-name. Just climb up
that tree and find out where I am.Copy !req
533. Look, t-the trick is not to panic.Copy !req
534. You know, h-h-he w-who panics is lost.Copy !req
535. What am I saying?
We are lost.Copy !req
536. Ow!Copy !req
537. I've been kidnapped
by the village idiot.Copy !req
538. Who's the bigger idiot,Copy !req
539. the idiot or the idiot
who gets kidnapped by the idiot?Copy !req
540. What'd you do,
talk those termites to death?Copy !req
541. I can't believe you tried to
pass yourself off as a soldier.Copy !req
542. Why are you stalking me?Copy !req
543. Don't you realize
that I'm out of your league?Copy !req
544. You're the one who was cruising the
worker bar looking for a little action.Copy !req
545. And you just happened to find it...Copy !req
546. the swarthy, earthy, sensual worker.Copy !req
547. Please.
I was slumming it.Copy !req
548. Don't you get it?Copy !req
549. I chose you because you were the most
pathetic little bug in the joint.Copy !req
550. I was gonna let you become part
of my most erotic fantasies.Copy !req
551. But now, you can forget that.Copy !req
552. Write it off, you know. I guess
what you prefer is Old Blood and Guts.Copy !req
553. This guy's idea of a romantic night out
is two seats at a public execution.Copy !req
554. Boy. You really chose
the right husband.Copy !req
555. For your information,Copy !req
556. the general and I are deeply,Copy !req
557. deeply in... engaged.Copy !req
558. You come right back
down here this instant.Copy !req
559. We are marching straight back
to the colony so that l...Copy !req
560. The monolith!Copy !req
561. Absolutely. Wonderful.
That's an appealing offer.Copy !req
562. But, considering the options,
you go back. Okay?Copy !req
563. 'Cause I'm going to Insectopia.Copy !req
564. Oh. Come on. Insectopia?Copy !req
565. You're crazier than I thought.Copy !req
566. Yeah. Well, I happen to have it
on a very reliable source.Copy !req
567. Or... Or should I say,Copy !req
568. a drunk-raving source?Copy !req
569. But the point is, I'm convinced
the place definitely exists.Copy !req
570. Stop!
I order you to stop, worker!Copy !req
571. Hey. I got a name.
Okay? It's Z.Copy !req
572. And out here,
you can't order me around.Copy !req
573. All right. Fine.
No problem.Copy !req
574. Worker! Worker!
Where are you?Copy !req
575. Z? Z? Wait for me.Copy !req
576. No more excuses, General.
I want my daughter back.Copy !req
577. Frankly, I'm beginning to doubt
your ability to handle this.Copy !req
578. Believe me, Your Highness, we will
spare no effort to bring her back.Copy !req
579. Princess Bala is essential
to all our plans for the future.Copy !req
580. So he kills himself
a hundred termites,Copy !req
581. gets a few medals, then bada-bing,
bada-bip, bags himself the princess.Copy !req
582. He looks him dead in the eye...
- And says, "Bite me."Copy !req
583. He said that
to General Mandible?Copy !req
584. Buddy. Hey, hey, buddy.Copy !req
585. You heard about
the war hero named Z?Copy !req
586. Runs off with the princess, right?Copy !req
587. When they sent the guards after him,
he just looks at 'em and boom!Copy !req
588. - They burst into flames.
- Z? You talkin' about Z?Copy !req
589. Hey, I know the guy. He's a friend
of mine. I think your information...Copy !req
590. - You know Z?
- Yeah.Copy !req
591. He's a worker.
He used to dig around here.Copy !req
592. A worker? That's impossible.
A worker can't do anything, except work.Copy !req
593. Yeah. It's not like
we got a choice.Copy !req
594. We do have a choice.
Uh, I mean, look at Z.Copy !req
595. He decided he wanted something,
and he went for it.Copy !req
596. He's not alone. I used to be a soldier,
and I switched places with him.Copy !req
597. Wait a second. You're tellin' me...
I don't have to be here?Copy !req
598. We've got a choice?Copy !req
599. The authorities
don't want you to know,Copy !req
600. but we don't have to work
on the tunnel anymore.Copy !req
601. It's the workers who control
the means of production.Copy !req
602. If Z don't dig, I don't dig.Copy !req
603. People, what is this?
An encounter group?Copy !req
604. - Let's get back to work.
- Why?Copy !req
605. on the tunnel anymore! This guy, Z...
he's leadin' the revolution!Copy !req
606. - I'll... get back to you.Copy !req
607. Think about it, Z... two ants.Copy !req
608. Who ever heard of two ants?
Two million ants, maybe. But two?Copy !req
609. Look, I'm hungry, I'm thirsty.Copy !req
610. And this whole desert thing?Copy !req
611. - It just doesn't work for me.
- Yada, yada, yada.Copy !req
612. I think it's about time
for you to take me back.Copy !req
613. Take yourself back.Copy !req
614. Excuse me.
You kidnapped me, remember?Copy !req
615. That means you have
certain responsibilities.Copy !req
616. You can't just abandon me
here in the wilderness.Copy !req
617. Yeah, well, it's better than
being back at the colony.Copy !req
618. - You're not serious, are you?
- Maybe you were living the high life,Copy !req
619. but personally,
this beats digging.Copy !req
620. If you'd ever done a day's labor
you'd know what I was talking about.Copy !req
621. Labor?
What do you know about labor?Copy !req
622. How would you feel
if you were expected to give birth...Copy !req
623. every ten seconds
for the rest of your life?Copy !req
624. Gee.Copy !req
625. Water!Copy !req
626. Ahh. All you think about
is yourself.Copy !req
627. Yeah? Well, nobody else
ever thought about me.Copy !req
628. So as far as I'm concerned,
I don't need anybody else.Copy !req
629. - Uhh!
- Help! Help me, Bala!Copy !req
630. Help!
B-B-B-B-Bala!Copy !req
631. Hold on. I'll get you out.
Hold on.Copy !req
632. - Help, Ba...Copy !req
633. - Thanks.
- Don't mention it.Copy !req
634. Now, maybe we can put
this fantasy behind us...Copy !req
635. and head back to the colon...Copy !req
636. Oh, Z!
What are you doing?Copy !req
637. - We've gotta cross the lake.
- Am I missing something here?Copy !req
638. Didn't we just get out of the water?Copy !req
639. Bala, look,
what have you got to lose?Copy !req
640. I mean, think about it. Do you really
want to be Mrs. Raving Lunatic?Copy !req
641. There's a better place.Copy !req
642. Z, please.Copy !req
643. Just... gimme one chance.Copy !req
644. If we don't find Insectopia soon,Copy !req
645. I promise
I'll take you back to the colony.Copy !req
646. I hope you know
what you're doing.Copy !req
647. Yeah, me too.Copy !req
648. We want Z! We want Z!Copy !req
649. People, come on.Copy !req
650. I know some ants who aren't
gonna make their Quota.Copy !req
651. Buzz off, pawn of the oppressor.Copy !req
652. We want Z! We want Z!Copy !req
653. Sorry, sir. I came as soon as I heard.
I was debriefing the trackers.Copy !req
654. - And? What's the report?
- Well, this Z, sir...Copy !req
655. He's one slippery character.Copy !req
656. They lost Bala's trail
at the edge of the lake.Copy !req
657. The lake?Copy !req
658. What's that soldier doing there?Copy !req
659. It appears he's holding hands, sir...
with a worker.Copy !req
660. I don't like the way
things are going, Cutter.Copy !req
661. I'm counting on you for results.Copy !req
662. - Now, can I depend on you or not?
- Yes, sir.Copy !req
663. All right, then.
Let's wrap this up.Copy !req
664. We want Z! We want Z! We want Z!Copy !req
665. I've heard a lot about this Z.Copy !req
666. I even had the pleasure
of meeting him once.Copy !req
667. But where is he now?Copy !req
668. Can anyone point him out?Copy !req
669. I mean, if this Z
cares so much about us,Copy !req
670. then why isn't he here?Copy !req
671. I'll tell you why.
Because Z doesn't give a damn about us.Copy !req
672. That's why he kidnapped our princess.
That's why he ran away.Copy !req
673. Z is no hero.
We are the heroes.Copy !req
674. We are the ones ensuring
the future of our great colony.Copy !req
675. And when we've completed
this magnificent structure,Copy !req
676. we will reap the benefits:Copy !req
677. More food and less work for everyone.Copy !req
678. And as further reward
for your heroic efforts,Copy !req
679. each and every one of you
will get the day off,Copy !req
680. So you can be the guests of honor at
the MegaTunnel dedication ceremonies!Copy !req
681. Mandible! Mandible!Copy !req
682. Mandible!
Mandible! Mandible! Mandible!Copy !req
683. Now bring me that soldier.Copy !req
684. Oh, my God!
Z! Come here!Copy !req
685. It's Insectopia!Copy !req
686. You were right.
It really is here.Copy !req
687. - Huh?
- All right. All right!Copy !req
688. - You're a genius.
- Let's eat. Mmph!Copy !req
689. Huh.Copy !req
690. Well?
What's the problem?Copy !req
691. - There's some kind of force field.Copy !req
692. Uh, excuse me. Excuse me.
How do you get in?Copy !req
693. Yes, well, I'm afraid
this is a private function.Copy !req
694. - Who are your friends, dear?
- Crawling insects, poopsie.Copy !req
695. Oh.
The poor dears.Copy !req
696. Uh, good morning.Copy !req
697. - Huh?
- Darling, really.Copy !req
698. Greeting every insect
that emerges out of the grass?Copy !req
699. Pardon me.
I guess you don't recognize me.Copy !req
700. I've been traveling
and I'm all... schlumpy.Copy !req
701. I'm Princess Bala.Copy !req
702. Oh! It's even worse.
They're Eurotrash.Copy !req
703. Darling, they're poor.
They're dirty. They're smelly.Copy !req
704. We have to help them.Copy !req
705. If you'll just wait right here,
we'll fetch you a little something.Copy !req
706. Oh, please, Muffy.
Not another crusade.Copy !req
707. Chippie, we have a social obligation
to the less fortunate.Copy !req
708. I know you laugh at my hobbies,
but this is important to me!Copy !req
709. Mm. You have such a big heart.Copy !req
710. That's why you're
my little cuddly-widdles.Copy !req
711. Oh, my big, strong pheromone factory.Copy !req
712. - Mmm!
- Oh!Copy !req
713. Oh, brother.
Suddenly I've lost my appetite.Copy !req
714. - You know...
- Oh!Copy !req
715. I guess I had
imagined Insectopia...Copy !req
716. I don't know...
a little differently.Copy !req
717. - Oh, Muffy!Copy !req
718. - No! Oh, no!
- Oh, no.Copy !req
719. - Look out!Copy !req
720. Z, help me! Z!Copy !req
721. Don't let me...
Don't let me go, Z.Copy !req
722. Get me out of here!Copy !req
723. Bala!Copy !req
724. Whoa, this is not good.Copy !req
725. Whoa!Copy !req
726. Whoa-oa-oa!Copy !req
727. Whoa-oa-oa!Copy !req
728. Hi.Copy !req
729. - Z?
- Yes?Copy !req
730. It looks like this is it, just when...
I was starting to like you.Copy !req
731. Who the hell is that?Copy !req
732. Uhh!Copy !req
733. That's enough.Copy !req
734. I ain't tellin' you nothin'.Copy !req
735. Soldier, the princess is vital
to the future of this colony.Copy !req
736. She must be returned
to take her proper place as Queen.Copy !req
737. We already have a Queen.Copy !req
738. As for your friend Z,
why should I hurt him?Copy !req
739. He's not important.Copy !req
740. Now, soldier,Copy !req
741. we all know that one individual ant
doesn't matter.Copy !req
742. Not you...Copy !req
743. - not Cutter...Copy !req
744. - Not even her.Copy !req
745. Azteca!Copy !req
746. Don't tell that tight-ass
anything, Weaver! Aagh!Copy !req
747. - Where is Z?Copy !req
748. - I don't know where he is!
- Hmm.Copy !req
749. That's too bad.Copy !req
750. Wait! Insectopia.Copy !req
751. Uhh! I know it sounds crazy,
but that's where he'd be going.Copy !req
752. Soldier, you think this is a game?
Insectopia does not exist.Copy !req
753. As a matter of fact... it does.Copy !req
754. - Sir?
- I'll brief you on the coordinates.Copy !req
755. You're gonna bring
the princess back.Copy !req
756. And as for Z... kill him.Copy !req
757. But you said he didn't matter.Copy !req
758. It's for the good of the colony.
You made the right decision.Copy !req
759. Gentlemen, now you can see...Copy !req
760. how dangerous individualism can be.Copy !req
761. It makes us... vulnerable.Copy !req
762. Let's go.Copy !req
763. Take him back to the MegaTunnel.
Put him on the front line.Copy !req
764. Dismissed.Copy !req
765. Jeez, what was I thinking?
I almost got you killed.Copy !req
766. Z, you know, you really
shouldn't be so hard on...Copy !req
767. That's it.
I'm taking you back to the colony.Copy !req
768. - Uhh! Ow! Oh.
- Uhh!Copy !req
769. Insectopia.
You know, I must've been crazy.Copy !req
770. - Z?
- But you know what?Copy !req
771. - I can admit it when I'm wrong.
- Z.Copy !req
772. And this time, I gotta tell ya,
I was absolutely, 100%...Copy !req
773. correct.Copy !req
774. Have... Have you ever seen
anything more beautiful in your life?Copy !req
775. - It's... Insect...
- Shh! Don't jinx it. Come on!Copy !req
776. All right, everybody.
I want all teams in place,Copy !req
777. fully prepared,
ready to seal the doors here and here.Copy !req
778. Make certain the digging crew
stays on schedule...Copy !req
779. for breakthrough midway
in the dedication ceremony.Copy !req
780. Now all we need is the princess.Copy !req
781. Mm.Copy !req
782. - This stuff tastes like crap.
- Really? Let me try some.Copy !req
783. Hey, it is crap.
Not bad.Copy !req
784. - Somebody needs to feed that fire.
- Dude, I did it last time.Copy !req
785. I'm not gonna get it.
It's not my job.Copy !req
786. What about the new guy?
He hasn't contributed yet.Copy !req
787. And... you know,
he just died in my arms like that.Copy !req
788. L... You know, I don't think
he ever once in his life...Copy !req
789. made his own choice.Copy !req
790. I never knew it was like that.Copy !req
791. I mean, up in the palace...Copy !req
792. Well, I guess we just let the general
make all the decisions.Copy !req
793. Let me ask you something. What
made you come to the bar that night?Copy !req
794. I guess I was looking
for a little trouble.Copy !req
795. Well,
Trouble's my middle name.Copy !req
796. Actually, my middle name
is Marion, but, uh,Copy !req
797. - I don't want you to spread that around.
- You're pretty strange.Copy !req
798. - You do know that, don't you?
- Well,Copy !req
799. Strange's not exactly
the word I would use.Copy !req
800. I like it.
You're not like anyone else.Copy !req
801. Actually, now that you mention it,
there is a certain strangeness to me.Copy !req
802. I mean, it's a, you know, kind of a
bizarre Quality. Some have said "freak."Copy !req
803. But it's, uh,
you know, complimentary.Copy !req
804. Hey, new guy.
We need more wood.Copy !req
805. I'll be right back.
Just hold that thought...Copy !req
806. whatever it is
you were thinking.Copy !req
807. Hey, you ever wonder why
they call you guys "pests"?Copy !req
808. What if, like,
we're just these tiny little things...Copy !req
809. and we're just, like, part of
this whole other huge universe...Copy !req
810. that's, like, so big
we don't even know it exists?Copy !req
811. Man, that is so deep.Copy !req
812. Perfect. Nothing like
a little manual labor...Copy !req
813. on the most romantic night
of my life.Copy !req
814. Hi. I was in the neighborhood
and I thought I'd drop in.Copy !req
815. This is, uh, very bohemian.Copy !req
816. Aloha, dude. Welcome to Insec...Copy !req
817. Sorry for interrupting.Copy !req
818. You see, our princess has,
uh, gone missing,Copy !req
819. and we're just sick about it.Copy !req
820. She's about yea tall,
fairly easy on the eyes.Copy !req
821. - Anybody seen her?
- That's her.Copy !req
822. Don't worry, Princess,
you'll be back home soon.Copy !req
823. Listen, Cutter, I'm...
I'm not going back.Copy !req
824. The thing is, Princess,
I got orders.Copy !req
825. Orders? Can't you just once
think for yourself?Copy !req
826. Well, that was very impressive.
Where's Z?Copy !req
827. - Z? He's, uh...
- Dead.Copy !req
828. Z's dead.
You don't need to worry about him.Copy !req
829. Z's dead.
Well, he was an ant with ideas.Copy !req
830. Too bad for him.Copy !req
831. Princess, your colony needs you.Copy !req
832. - Cutter!Copy !req
833. - Stop right now! Let go of me!
- Bala!Copy !req
834. Stop, you...
Oh, no.Copy !req
835. What am I gonna do?Copy !req
836. All right, look.
Let's be rational about this.Copy !req
837. You know, Bala and I,
you know, she's a princess...Copy !req
838. and I'm a...
I'm a soil-relocation engineer.Copy !req
839. So wha... You're no...
Whew!Copy !req
840. On the other hand, uh...
I've gotta go back for her.Copy !req
841. I'll-I'll give you a lift.Copy !req
842. S-S-S... Whoa!
Ohh!Copy !req
843. It's the least I can do.Copy !req
844. Besides, it's what my waddly-kiddles
would want.Copy !req
845. Uh, look,
How about a cup of joe first?Copy !req
846. - Well, old boy... saddle up.
- I think I saw
a puddle of coffee over there.Copy !req
847. It... Whoa!Copy !req
848. [Z]
Look out!Copy !req
849. Ah, Princess.Copy !req
850. - You're just in time.
- Take your hands off me.Copy !req
851. General, what exactly
is going on here?Copy !req
852. - I demand an explanation.
- I'll explain everything afterwards.Copy !req
853. - Is the southeast entrance secure?
- Yes, sir.Copy !req
854. Not afterwards. Now.Copy !req
855. I don't like the way you think and I
don't like the way you run this colony.Copy !req
856. And I don't like you.
The wedding is off.Copy !req
857. - Things are going to change around here.
- You're right, Princess.Copy !req
858. Things are going to change.
Why don't we make her more comfortable?Copy !req
859. - She'll be here for a while.Copy !req
860. What do you think you're doing?
My mother will have your head.Copy !req
861. I doubt that.
Ah, you've got a fighter spirit, Bala.Copy !req
862. And that's just what we need
to start our new colony.Copy !req
863. We will rinse away
all the filth from our gutters.Copy !req
864. We'll start anew,
with you by my side as my Queen.Copy !req
865. You're crazy.Copy !req
866. I believe history
will see things differently.Copy !req
867. All right, gentlemen.
Time to take your positions.Copy !req
868. Someday...
Someday you'll thank me.Copy !req
869. [Z] Pull up! Pull up!
Aah! There it is!Copy !req
870. Oof!
Oh!Copy !req
871. Well, then, go get
the woman you love, Z.Copy !req
872. So long, Chip. And thanks.Copy !req
873. You there.
Where do you think you're goin'?Copy !req
874. Me? Oh, no, I was just...
You know, l...Copy !req
875. You're not supposed
to be out here.Copy !req
876. All workers are to report to
the tunnel-opening ceremonies.Copy !req
877. Yes, yes, of course.
The-The tunnel-opening ceremonies.Copy !req
878. L... Well, I should get going, then.
L...Copy !req
879. - You know, the-the...
- Hey!Copy !req
880. I'm going to the...
The tunnel-opening ceremonies.Copy !req
881. - I'd... better get goin'.
- Get moving.Copy !req
882. I'm going to the...
the tunnel-opening ceremonies. L...Copy !req
883. Excuse me, please.
Tunnel-opening ceremonies.Copy !req
884. - Hey, worker!
- Opening the tunnel. They need me.Copy !req
885. - I'm the key man.
- Where do you think you're going?Copy !req
886. Tunnel-opening ceremonies.Copy !req
887. - Hey! Let me outta here!Copy !req
888. Hey!Copy !req
889. - Gosh, this-this day just keeps
getting better and better.Copy !req
890. - I mean big trouble!Copy !req
891. Are you listening to me out there?
I'm the princess!Copy !req
892. Damn it!Copy !req
893. Wow, your manners
haven't improved much.Copy !req
894. Z!Copy !req
895. Whoa! Whoa!Copy !req
896. - Ooh!
- It's you. You came back for me.Copy !req
897. Well, yeah, I came back for you.
I have strong feelings for you.Copy !req
898. Let's face it, you're... you're...
you're beautiful. L...Copy !req
899. A little combative at times,
but I think we can work on that.Copy !req
900. You talk too much.Copy !req
901. Gee, I think I'm about to become
the strong, silent type.Copy !req
902. Come on. The city's deserted.
We'd better get outta here.Copy !req
903. Z...
We can't go.Copy !req
904. Mandible's insane.
He... He keeps talking about...Copy !req
905. washing away the filth
and-and changing history and...Copy !req
906. and I think he's going to try
to kill my mother.Copy !req
907. Not just your mother... everyone.Copy !req
908. - What's going on?
- Look.Copy !req
909. Here we are, safe in the city.Copy !req
910. But they're gonna seal
everybody off in the MegaTunnel.Copy !req
911. And... here's the lake.Copy !req
912. You're right.Copy !req
913. We can't leave now.Copy !req
914. Come on.
We gotta get down there.Copy !req
915. Today is the realization of a dream.Copy !req
916. A dream of a proud colony.Copy !req
917. A pure colony.
A colony reborn.Copy !req
918. Moments from now
this tunnel will open.Copy !req
919. The past will be washed away
and a new day will dawn.Copy !req
920. A stirring speech, General.Copy !req
921. I only wish my daughter
were here to appreciate it.Copy !req
922. Your Majesty, I know
how concerned you are about Bala.Copy !req
923. But my scouts are on her trail
and it's only a matter of time...Copy !req
924. General, I don't want to discuss it.
Just find her.Copy !req
925. I will, Your Highness.Copy !req
926. Good-bye.Copy !req
927. Seal up the doors.Copy !req
928. - Cutter, did you hear me?
- Sir, I've been thinking.Copy !req
929. Do we need to go through with this?
Look at what these workers have done.Copy !req
930. They got the right stuff.
Isn't there any other way?Copy !req
931. Cutter, you're a fine officer.
You have discipline, courage, ability.Copy !req
932. But you seem to have a weakness for
the lower orders that I find disturbing.Copy !req
933. - Now, are you with me?
- Sir, uh... I apologize.Copy !req
934. - All right, then. Seal it up.
- Yes, sir.Copy !req
935. As I look out
on this magnificent tunnel,Copy !req
936. I am filled with pride.Copy !req
937. - [Z] Jump!
- In these difficult times,Copy !req
938. it is a great solace to know
that you, our workers...Copy !req
939. - Mom! Wait!Copy !req
940. Every worker in the colony is here.
Wait a minute. That guy owes me money.Copy !req
941. This tremendous accomplishment
is a testimony to the strength...Copy !req
942. - Put your backs into it!
- Go warn your mother.Copy !req
943. - I gotta get to those diggers
before they break through.
- There's not enough time.Copy !req
944. Hey, leave the pessimism to me, okay?Copy !req
945. - Ow! Ooh! Yeeow!Copy !req
946. Excuse me! Sorry about that.
Excuse me.Copy !req
947. In a few moments when our expert diggers
break through to the surface,Copy !req
948. - Mom! Mom, stop.
- The sun will pour into this...Copy !req
949. Bala! Where've you been?
Are you all right?Copy !req
950. - I'm fine.
- What happened?Copy !req
951. Mother,
we're in terrible danger.Copy !req
952. Put your backs into it, people.Copy !req
953. Wait! Hold...
Hey, stop digging!Copy !req
954. - Z? Is that you?
- We must stop!Copy !req
955. - Z! You're back!Copy !req
956. - Oh, Z! Oh.
- Weaver!Copy !req
957. Z! What's the matter?Copy !req
958. Ho-Hold up, everyone.
Stop. Stop digging.Copy !req
959. - On whose authority?
- On your own authority.Copy !req
960. If you break through that wall,
we're all gonna...Copy !req
961. Drown.
This tunnel is going to flood.Copy !req
962. So we've got to get
everyone out of here.Copy !req
963. Look, I got orders,
and those orders say "dig."Copy !req
964. What if someone ordered you
to jump off a bridge?Copy !req
965. Oh, brother, I'm asking the wrong guy.
Look, think for yourselves!Copy !req
966. Gimme that!
I've had enough out of you.Copy !req
967. Get back to work.Copy !req
968. What's that noise?Copy !req
969. Uh-oh.Copy !req
970. - Let's get outta here!
- Run!Copy !req
971. Run! Keep going!Copy !req
972. Everyone, listen to me.
We've all been deceived.Copy !req
973. We need to calmly
head toward the exits.Copy !req
974. - Run for your lives! It's gonna flood!
- No. Don't panic.Copy !req
975. - Don't panic!
- Every ant for himself!Copy !req
976. - All the exits are blocked!
- We're trapped!Copy !req
977. - What are we going to do?
- There's nothing we can do!Copy !req
978. Yes, there is.
Weaver, give me a leg up.Copy !req
979. Everyone, listen to me!Copy !req
980. - Who the heck are you?
- He's Z!Copy !req
981. Listen, we gotta help each other
get outta here before we all drown.Copy !req
982. - How?
- By making a ladder.Copy !req
983. A ladder!Copy !req
984. Hey, if we built this,
we can do anything.Copy !req
985. - Okay, let's move it!
- I'm on it. All of you, gather round.Copy !req
986. You, start climbing.Copy !req
987. - Grab my arm.
- All right. Here I go.
- Come on.Copy !req
988. - Go, go, go!
- Right!Copy !req
989. - Excuse me, Your Majesty.Copy !req
990. Z, I've gotta help my Mom.Copy !req
991. Don't worry. I know almost
exactly what I'm doing.Copy !req
992. I'll see you at the top.Copy !req
993. Gentlemen, there comes a time...Copy !req
994. in the evolution
of a perfect colony...Copy !req
995. when the strong are meant
to rise above the weak.Copy !req
996. Now is that time.Copy !req
997. Below us right now,Copy !req
998. the weak elements
of the colony...Copy !req
999. are being washed away.Copy !req
1000. - Oh, my God, we're not gonna make it!Copy !req
1001. - We need more ants.
- You two better get up there.Copy !req
1002. Weaver, you can't hold it alone.Copy !req
1003. Get going.Copy !req
1004. Hang in there, buddy.Copy !req
1005. - Got it!
- Hurry up! Go, go, go, go!Copy !req
1006. Our princess is secured,
and our glorious future is at hand.Copy !req
1007. We can all stand proud.Copy !req
1008. It is time for a new beginning.Copy !req
1009. - What the hell is that?Copy !req
1010. I think that's
the weak element, sir.Copy !req
1011. - Gimme... Gimme a hand!
- Z! You?Copy !req
1012. Let go! Don't you understand?
It's for the good of the colony.Copy !req
1013. Wha-What are you saying?
We are the colony!Copy !req
1014. Cutter... what are you doing?Copy !req
1015. Something I should've done
a long time ago.Copy !req
1016. This is for the good
of the colony, sir.Copy !req
1017. You useless, ungrateful maggot!Copy !req
1018. - I am the colony!
- Look out!Copy !req
1019. Oof! Aa-aah!Copy !req
1020. Aa-aa-aah!Copy !req
1021. Z!Copy !req
1022. Men, let's move it!
Get these ants up here.Copy !req
1023. - Keep it moving.
- Thank goodness we made it.Copy !req
1024. Wait here.Copy !req
1025. - Uhh! Okay.
- Thank you.Copy !req
1026. Weaver.Copy !req
1027. Where's Z?Copy !req
1028. - Oh, no.
- Back up, everybody, back up!Copy !req
1029. - Give him some air. Back up.
- Z, oh, Z.Copy !req
1030. Please wake up.Copy !req
1031. Oh, no!Copy !req
1032. Huh!Copy !req
1033. Yowch!Copy !req
1034. You know, Weaver,
you still owe me that dinner.Copy !req
1035. - Babylove.Copy !req
1036. - We made it, Z!
- You da ant!Copy !req
1037. - Eh!
- You did it.Copy !req
1038. We did it.Copy !req
1039. - Oh!
- Fellas! Fellas, please!Copy !req
1040. - This is very embarrassing for me, l...Copy !req
1041. On the other hand,
I probably could get used to this.Copy !req
1042. There you have it.
Your average " boy meets girl,Copy !req
1043. boy likes girl, boy changes
underlying social order" story.Copy !req
1044. So, what else can I tell you?Copy !req
1045. We rebuilt the colony.
It's even better than before.Copy !req
1046. You know, 'cause now it has
a very large indoor swimming pool.Copy !req
1047. Bala and I, incidentally,
are thinking of starting a family,Copy !req
1048. you know, just a few kids...
maybe a million or two to begin with.Copy !req
1049. And I'm workin' with a new therapist,
you know, terrific, absolutely terrific.Copy !req
1050. He's been putting me
in touch with my inner maggot,Copy !req
1051. which is helping me a great deal.Copy !req
1052. And, you know, I finally
feel like I've found my place.Copy !req
1053. And you know what?
It's right back where I started.Copy !req
1054. But the difference is,
this time I chose it.Copy !req
