- [Douglas] This is the story of a little girl named Ariel
and a mother daughter summer vacation
that changed her life forever.
Ariel is from Saint John, a port city along the Bay of Fundy
where the highest tides in the world
meet at the mouth of the Saint John River.
Some say its chaotic waters are home
to strange sea creatures, but people say a lot of things.
Every year, Ariel and her mother
rent my summer cottage in Chamcook.
Its private beach and ocean waters are very special.
One day, while beachcombing,
Ariel would discover just how special.
If I remember right,
it all happened something like this.
(cheerful music continues)
(cheerful music continues)
- What in the world is this?
(cheerful music continues)
(zipper rasping)
(bird calling)
(Ug Wug sniffing)
(cheerful music continues)
(Ug Wug sniffing)
(Ug Wug chewing)
(Ariel screaming) (Ug Wug roaring)
- Thanks so much for renting us
the cottage again this summer.
Ariel has so much fun when she's here.
She ran to the beach as soon as we pulled in the driveway.
- Of course, wouldn't be the same
without little Ariel showing off her beach treasures.
(cheerful music continues)
- Hey, hey, hey! Wait a minute, kiddo.
Come back and say hi.
- Sorry, Mom. Hi, Mr. Van Der Zer.
Thank you for letting us stay at the cottage again.
- No problem! Good luck searching the shore for treasures!
- [Ariel] Thank you!
- Sorry, she's a little more excited than I thought she was.
She must've found something really special down there.
- Something special indeed.
You never know what you'll find down on that beach.
Anyway, I'll let you start your vacation.
If you need something, give us a call.
We're just down the street.
- All right, tell Adam we say hi. See you later.
(pensive music)
(zipper rasping)
(keyboard clicking)
- On a beach in Chamcook, New Brunswick,
a young boy named Douglas Van Der Zer has reported
seeing the fabled Saint John sea monster the Ug Wug.
Hey, that's where we are. That's the same beach.
While staying at his family's summer cottage,
he claims to have stumbled upon the creature
as it was sunning on the beach.
Douglas claims the monster quickly returns to the sea,
leaving behind a single scale.
(pensive music continues)
It's a scale?
- Ariel, that was a little bit rude that you walked away
from Mr. Van Der Zer like that, don't you think?
What was so important, anyways?
- I'm sorry, Mom. I just...
I was just really excited and I wanted to look something up.
- Sea monsters, huh? Well, every year it's something.
Last year it was stinky, smelly crab shells.
Please don't bring home any more stinky, smelly crab shells
home with you this summer.
Hey, that's really pretty.
I noticed Mr. Van Der Zer had one on
just like that today on his necklace.
We can pick a necklace for you
after supper if you want with it.
- Yes, please. - Time to get supper going.
How does a burger and salad sound?
- Sounds great, Mom. Let me know when it's ready.
- Okay, love you.
Let's not bring any sea monsters home
this summer either, okay?
- No promises.
It ate my sandwich!
It liked my sandwich!
(pencils clattering)
(pensive music)
(pencil scratching)
(pencil scratching)
Okay, I make the sandwiches. I lay the trail.
I hide behind a rock. The Ug Wug eats the sandwiches.
And we're best friends!
(dog barking)
- Ariel, it's time to get up, babe.
We've got to go into town, get some things.
Oh, what is this mess?
- [Ariel] Hi, Mom. Love you.
I went to the beach, and by the way, PS, we need more jam.
Love you, bye!
- Ugh, gross! This is way too early in the morning for this.
(pensive music)
- Don't worry, Ug Wug. We're going to be best friends.
(pensive music continues)
(birds chirping)
(door rasping)
(Kris slurping)
- Morning, babe.
Yeah, mother daughter vacation's officially begun.
Yeah, Douglas met us here last night
and helped us unload the car.
Well, she's been down on the beach for a couple hours now.
She was up before I got up this morning.
Yeah, she must've found something really good down there.
Okay, babe, I'll call you tonight.
Okay, bye. Love you.
- [Douglas] No one had ever tried to make friends
with a Wug before, but Ariel knew she could.
Her fear after first seeing it was gone.
She knew she could earn its trust, and she planned to do it
one blueberry jam sandwich at a time.
I don't know how she knew Ug Wug would return.
She just had a feeling, and so she followed her plan,
knowing that if it worked, she would become friends
with the most amazing creature she had ever seen.
And thinking back on it, I think Ug Wug felt the same way.
Wugs are very wise.
It is said that they can see your soul, good or bad.
- There, that should do it.
- [Douglas] Once you're friends with a Wug,
you are friends for life.
It's a magical thing, literally.
Ariel waited on that beach.
She waited,
and waited,
and waited.
(water burbling)
Until eventually, she fell asleep.
(water splashing)
(Ug Wug purring)
(Ug Wug sniffing)
(Ug Wug grunting)
(Ug Wug chewing)
That is when it happened.
Just like that, a big, giant friendship unlike any other.
- No, no, wait! I won't hurt you, I promise.
Hi.
You're not a scary monster at all, are you?
(Ug Wug grunting)
Wow, you're beautiful.
(Ug Wug groans)
I'm sorry, I don't have any more.
I can bring you more treats tomorrow.
- Ariel, it's time to go to town!
We've got to get more jam, remember?
- Be right there, Mom!
I have to go, okay?
You stay safe and hidden.
When I come back tomorrow, I'll bring you more treats.
(rocks clattering)
Best friend ever.
(ominous music) - Gloria!
Gloria, can you hear me?
Gloria, yeah, listen, listen, I'm stuck.
I'm lost in the middle of nowhere.
I cannot find this stupid anger management place anywhere,
and this pathetic excuse of a rental car,
it absolutely reeks of farts!
Smells like a fart did a fart in it!
It's a bloody stink wagon, a bloody, ow!
So if you can find me a rental car
with a bit less rotten egg and a bit more potpourri,
that'd be lovely!
Gloria? Gloria!
Can you hear me? Gloria!
- [Kris] Ariel, it's time to go to town!
We've got to get more jam, remember?
- Be right there, Mom! - What is that?
Can't be.
It is.
- [Douglas] Gilly Reginald Green.
As you can see, he's a classy fella. Not too bright, though.
So focused on making money and making Daddy proud,
he tends to overlook important details,
like taking a photo of a sea monster when you first see it!
Seriously, if he had just snapped one picture,
this would be a different story.
(phone ringing)
- Gloria, yeah, yeah.
Cancel the anger management thing.
Arrange a call with the board.
I'm about to make our investors
very happy indeed.
(phone beeps)
Money by the pound.
Money by the pound.
Good god! How's it got worse?
(Gilly coughing)
(engine starting)
(engine revving)
(pensive music)
(cheerful music)
- Come on, you said you wanted to try
new things this summer.
How about we dig up some worms,
fry them on a stick on the barbecue?
That'd be great with barbecue sauce.
- How about chocolate cake,
and we can wash it down with chocolate milk?
And after supper, we can have chocolate ice cream.
- Whoa, okay, that's a lot of chocolate.
How about we just stick with some ice cream,
and maybe some chocolate sauce on top?
- Fish.
- Did you say fish?
Fish? That's an awful big jump from chocolate cake.
Ariel?
Ariel?
- Sorry, Mom. I guess I was daydreaming.
- I'll say.
Hey kiddo, how about we go down into the wharf
and get our traditional treats?
- Hey, sounds good.
(cheerful music continues)
(cheerful music continues)
(cheerful music continues) (inaudible dialogue)
(cheerful music continues)
(cheerful music continues)
(birds calling)
(cheerful music continues)
- Well, we made it, kiddo.
- Mom, do you think fish
watch over air and land like people?
Like people watch over the water?
- I don't know, I never really
thought about it like that before.
Never really imagined living underwater.
- It's pretty cool.
- You know from experience, do you?
- Imagination is my superpower, Mom.
- I know. How about this?
If people go fishing, do you think giant fish go people-ing?
(Ariel laughs)
(water bubbling)
- Gloria, Gloria, please just tell them
I am feeling much better now.
- Really? Nothing?
I thought that was pretty clever.
Ariel?
- No, no, no. No, no, no.
No more outbursts, I promise. I am a new man.
- Ariel, are you okay?
Ariel? Ariel, babe, this isn't funny.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yep, that's right, Gloria.
Yep, a sea monster colored like candy.
That's very important, don't forget that.
All we have to do is capture it.
- [Kris] Honey, are you okay?
Ariel! Ariel?
- Hello, ladies.
It looks like your vacation officially started.
You have your traditional Honeybeans treats.
- (sighs) Oh, thank you.
- Are you okay? - Yeah, I'm okay, Mom.
- Is Ariel sick? Can I help with anything?
- I don't know, Ariel kind of spaced out
into this weird trance or something.
This is like the second time it's happened today.
- You okay?
- Yeah, yeah, no, listen, Gloria.
I don't care what it takes.
We'll buy the entire coastline if we have to.
People are going to travel from all over the world
to see this, you have to see it, Gloria.
It's got, like, a rainbow tail like a mermaid!
It's a bloody wonder! Yeah!
- You like my necklace, huh? I see you have the same one.
When I was your age, I found it
on the same beach I bet you found that one.
You wouldn't believe the story if I told you.
- Yes, yes, we could charge people to come and see it!
We can build an entire amusement park around it!
We could even sell its drool!
And hair, and hair, its hair!
I mean, I bet it sheds and molts.
I mean, do sea monsters molt? Who knows?
Look, just get all of this at the board, Gloria.
This is going to be my moment.
I'm finally going to make a mark all by myself.
They're not going to think of me as the boss's son anymore.
We're going to make a fortune!
Finally going to make the old man proud.
(Ariel gasps)
- Mom, we got to go back to the beach.
I need to check on something very important there.
- Ariel, don't be rude. We got to finish...
We got to finish with our visit with Mr. Van Der Zer first.
- That's okay, I got to get some groceries.
I promised Adam I'd cook tonight.
- Sorry.
- Ariel, you take care of that special beach treasure.
- Thank you.
- Okay, thanks!
- [Ariel] Bye!
- Hey, it's me.
Yeah, listen.
Remember that story I told you about when I was a kid?
Yeah, I think it's back.
Yeah, I'm going to see.
(pensive music continues)
(ominous music)
- Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
Just one pair, that's all I need. Just one pair.
(ominous music continues)
- Excuse me, I believe these are mine.
- Oh, well that's funny, because I think they're mine!
- Sir, please. - No, mine!
- But I need them too!
- To? To what, see into your future?
Well, let me give you the CliffsNotes version, love.
Nothing to see here, just the same old, same old rot,
whereas my sea monster and I, we are going places.
- What is wrong with you?
Did you not get enough love as a child?
- Trust me, you do not want any part in this!
- Oh, forget it. I don't need this.
I have two kids at home that think everything in my house
is a toilet, you can have them.
- Oh, there's a lady stealing things in aisle three
because she's mad about living in a poop house or something.
You might want to call security, and I need these.
Thank you!
(no audio)
(no audio)
- I can't believe it! After 30 years, he's back!
But that's not what Ariel's scared of.
Something, or someone.
I wonder.
(engine rumbling)
(phone ringing)
- Hello? - Oh, hi, Mr. Alwert.
Hi, it's Douglas. Is Sam around?
- He's out on patrol. - Still on patrol, huh?
Could you tell him I called when he gets back?
- Sure, is it important? - No, no, nothing important.
- What are you after? - What's that?
- Still chasing monsters? - Yes.
I'm still chasing monsters.
Better me chasing them than them chasing me.
- [Alwert] Any idea how Adam puts up with you?
- No, sir.
I don't know how Adam puts up with my shenanigans.
I'm just lucky, I guess.
- [Officer] Don't be bothering Sam about any monsters.
- No, sir. - You got it?
- I won't distract Sam from his police work.
Not like last time. - Good.
(Douglas mimicking static)
(phone beeps)
(cheerful music)
- [Ariel] Come on, Mom, come on!
Come on, come on! - I'm coming!
- [Ariel] Come on, let's go, let's go! We've got to hurry!
- These better be some good shells.
A pearl or something.
- It's more than a pearl.
Come on! - I'm coming.
- Let's go, let's go, let's go!
- Okay, okay.
Wow, it's pretty.
- Just wait, Mom. She's coming, don't be afraid.
- She? Afraid?
What are you talking about?
- You'll see.
Mom, I'd like you to meet my friend Ug Wug.
(Ug Wug grumbling)
- (screams) Ariel!
Ariel, come on, we've got to go!
Get over here! Come on! - Mom! Mom!
- What is that? We've got to go!
- Mom, wait, wait! Calm down!
Hurry, hurry! - Ariel, we got to go!
- Wait, Mom! - We got to go!
Get away from us! Get away!
- Listen to me! - What?
- Listen to me.
- We got to go. What is that?
- It's my friend.
- Your friend?
- Yeah.
Good girl.
See, Mom? She's friendly.
Come on, Mom. Get up, get up.
Yesterday, I found her.
Earlier today, I was seeing what she was seeing,
and I think she was seeing what I was seeing.
Isn't she amazing?
(Kris groaning)
See, Mom? She likes you.
Good girl.
Today when we were at the wharf, I had a vision,
and I saw a fancy man trying to sell Ug Wug.
Or not sell, lock her up.
And he wanted to sell tickets to people to come and see her,
or she saw, and I saw what she saw.
But anyways, he even wants to sell her drool!
- Ew. (Ug Wug growls)
Sorry.
Wait, it can understand me?
- Her, Mom. It's a her.
And she somehow knows how to understand people.
But we got to help her, Mom. We got to help her.
The bad man, somehow he knows about Ug Wug.
He'll capture her, and her life will be miserable.
We got to help her, Mom. She's my friend.
- Kiddo, I don't even know how any of this can be real,
let alone even how to help.
What did you call her? Ug Wug?
- Maybe I can help with that.
I knew I'd see you again.
Ariel, am I ever glad you came to visit this summer.
I think I know someone that can help us.
(birds cawing)
(Mr. Green Sr. coughing) (phone ringing)
(gas hissing)
- [Robert] Good afternoon, sir.
I have the update you asked for on your son Gilly.
- Go on.
- Well, sir, he never checked
into the anger management or his hotel.
Gloria says he's been going on
about some kind of sea monster he claims to have seen.
Apparently he wants to capture it.
Sir, we are very concerned.
His outbursts are now coupled with delusions of grandeur.
How long do you want us to entertain his shenanigans?
He could pose a real threat
to the future of Green Industries.
- Robert, if something should happen,
should Gilly prove to be beyond hope,
my youngest son, Quentin Bartholomew Green,
shall be my successor.
Gilly will be cast aside.
No more chances. (coughing)
- [Robert] Very well, sir.
I will have legal prepare the paperwork
for your review and signature.
- Robert, you are a loyal employee and a good friend.
Thank you. (coughing)
(gas hissing)
(Mr. Green Sr. coughing)
(Mr. Green Sr. Wheezing)
(pensive music continues)
- That's right, gentlemen.
My research tells me that it is named Ug Wug,
and it is not a myth at all.
No, no, it's as real as you and I.
And if you were to grant me additional resources
and upfront investment in infrastructure,
then Wuggy World would not only be the number one theme park
in the world, but the home of a real live sea monster!
People of the board,
this is quite literally a license to print money.
We would make back our initial investment
in the first quarter,
and that doesn't even include merchandising!
- [Robert] Mr. Green, you are three days
into a medically mandated vacation
where you are supposed to be relaxing
and attending your anger management classes.
Or have you forgotten the donut incident
from our last shareholders meeting?
- No, I haven't forgotten the donut incident.
I apologized to Freddy, and I paid for a new suit.
- [Robert] (clears throat) Now you are going to pitch to us
an amusement park with a rainbow...
Sorry, a candy colored sea monster.
- Yes, candy colored. And who doesn't love candy?
- [Robert] Yes, quite.
Do you not see why the members of the board
might be concerned?
Hello, Mr. Green? Are you still there?
- Yes, Bob, I'm still here in the middle of nowhere,
surrounded by mosquitoes in my fart-mobile.
Bob? - Did you say fart-mobile?
- Look, Bob, just give me 24 hours
to provide proof of everything I've claimed.
If I can come back to you with evidence,
then the board gives me the budget and resources I need.
What do you say to that, Bob?
- [Robert] Mr. Green, out of the profound respect
we have for your father, who founded this company,
we will agree to meet again in 24 hours
to review your evidence and sea monster park.
Mr. Green, please do attend your anger management classes
as per your doctor's orders.
You are on shaky ground with this board.
(Gilly screaming)
(Gilly screaming)
(Gilly panting)
(phone beeps)
(Gilly grunting)
(Gilly sighs)
(door slams) (engine revving)
- Oh, yeah, thanks, Sam.
Yeah, we'll have to get together soon.
Okay. Okay, thanks, bye.
Okay, his name's Mr. Green.
He's in town on a sabbatical, something to do
with a flaming donut office something, I don't know.
Sounds like a real piece of work.
His dad owns Green Industries, gave him a pity job.
- Well, capturing a mythical sea creature
would certainly help establish himself.
But wait a minute, how is this even possible?
Like, what's next, unicorns?
- Oh, you don't have to worry about those.
- Thank goodness.
- They live further inland.
- If Mr. Green even gets a photo of Ug Wug, it will be bad.
It...
It...
(water bubbling)
(water bubbling)
- Ariel? Ariel?
Hello?
- She did this at the wharf today, too,
and even before that in the car,
only without the sleeping part.
She said something down on the beach
about her and Ug Wug being able to, like,
feel each other's thoughts and feelings.
- Maybe they share a telepathic link.
- You can't be serious. Is that even possible?
- Says the woman who was just petting a sea monster.
- I know, but she doesn't do it all the time.
She can go hours without doing whatever this is.
- Maybe that's a good thing.
Maybe she can let the Ug Wug know it's not safe here.
- Maybe. - Come on.
- But she's right, you know. We can't let him take her.
- From the sounds of it, Mr. Green's the real monster here.
I'll come back in the morning,
and we'll figure out a plan to save Ug Wug.
I'm going to call a friend. He's a little different, but...
I'll see you in the morning.
(pensive music continues)
(phone ringing)
(phone ringing)
- Hello. - Kwimu. (laughs)
It's Douglas. Yeah, it's been a while.
- Indeed.
Last I heard, you were in Saint John,
diving into the Reversing Falls looking for signs of Ug Wug.
- Well, actually, that's why I'm calling. I found her.
Well, actually, I didn't find her.
Daughter of a family friend found her.
But she's back, Kwimu!
- I told you, Douglas.
When the time is right, you will see her again.
After all, you wear one of her scales.
She's very picky who she lets find one of her scales.
That's part of Wug magic.
- I know, you were right.
Well, actually, that's why I'm calling.
There's a shady businessman
who's been trying to capture her.
- Every year, the world gets smaller,
and our special friends struggle to stay hidden.
(stick thumping)
(Luna baying)
- Kwimu! Are you okay?
- Oh, I'm just leaving a snack for Luna.
She's eating for two now.
- Yeah, pretty soon you'll have the pitter patter
of little bigfeet around your land.
(Luna snarling)
- Now that's chomping. That's really chomping.
- This little girl Ariel,
she's got a really strong connection to Ug Wug.
It's almost telepathic.
- That sounds about right.
Wugs can choose one, maybe two persons in a lifetime
to form a soul link with.
One sees and feels the other.
- She's not safe.
We have to get her to a place where she's going to be safe.
- Douglas, there is a way to keep her safe,
at least for a while.
This is what you need to do.
(pensive music)
(chair creaking)
(Ug Wug farting)
(Ariel farts)
- Was that you or your friend?
(birds chirping)
(chicken clucking)
Morning, kiddo.
- Morning, Mom.
- I was talking to Daddy last night.
- Cool, what'd he say?
- Well, he said he misses us,
and he hopes we're having a good time.
(Ariel slurping)
- Did you tell him about Ug Wug?
- Well, I couldn't quite figure out how to tell him
that a bright colored sea monster
had a telepathic connection with our daughter.
- Well, if you put it that way.
- Good morning, ladies. I brought treats from Honeybeans.
- [Kris] Morning.
- Here you go. - Thanks.
- And I have news on how we're going to save Ug Wug.
- Really? - Yeah.
I called a special friend of mine last night,
somebody who's used to this sort of thing.
- Saves sea monsters regularly, does he?
- Well, let's just say he's unique.
Anyways, I trust him with my life,
and I'm sure Ug Wug will, too.
Turns out that Ug Wug and Kwimu know each other.
Kwimu's my friend's name. He lives further upriver.
He knows all about the different kinds of Wugs.
- There's more than one Wug?
- Yeah, there's the Frost Wug that lives up north,
the Forest Wug, the Fire Wug, the Rock Wug.
There's Wugs all over the world.
- Whoa!
- Kwimu says that there are sea caves
that connect the ocean to different parts
of the river and surrounding lakes and stuff.
If Ug Wug can follow those caves, she'll stay hidden,
and if she makes it to Kwimu, she'll be safe.
- My husband's never going to believe any of this.
We just turned our mother daughter vacation
into a sea monster rescue mission.
- Yeah, it's sad and awesome at the same time.
But I still can't believe there's more than one Wug.
- What do you think, Ariel?
- Let's save a sea monster.
- Yep, now that's a normal thing to say at breakfast.
(Gilly snoring) (phone ringing)
- No, Daddy! I want to be a dancer!
Daddy, no! Huh?
Gloria! - Hello?
- Gloria! - Mr. Green?
- Gloria? Gloria, can you hear me?
You need to send a team! - Can you hear me, Mr. Green?
- Gloria? - Yes, sir, I'm here.
- What? Gloria, can you hear me?
- Hello? Mr. Green? - You need to send a team!
- [Gloria] Sir, the board members have blocked it.
- Blocked? Blocked by who?
Blocked by the board? - Yes, sir.
You're on temporary suspension right now.
- This is going to get ugly. - How dare you?
- What? - I am a very handsome woman.
- What? No, not you.
No, Gloria, no, not you! Not you! (screams)
(pensive music continues)
- Well, Ariel, do you think you can call her?
- She already knows we're here.
Here she comes!
(water splashing)
(Ug Wug sniffing)
Hi, I missed you.
Here you go, girl.
(Ug Wug groans)
I missed you. Are you okay?
- You're in danger, but we want to help.
(engine rumbling)
(rumbling continues)
(footsteps tapping)
(Robert sighs)
- Master Quentin. - Bob!
Bob-meister-meister-bobber. Come here.
Give me some knuck-knucks, come on.
Come on, you know you want to. Right here.
Come on, knuck-knucks. Come on, move that hand.
Come on. Come on, Bob-meister.
Yeah, there you go. See, that wasn't so hard, now was it?
- Welcome back, sir.
- It's good to be back, Bob-meister-meister-bobber.
- Please don't call me that.
- Okay, I'm sorry, Bob-meister.
I can't, it just works so good. Own it, my guy.
So Dad sent you out here to collect his favorite son, eh?
- [Robert] I've been chosen to personally inform you
that as of this morning,
you are the acting CEO of Green Industries.
Heaven help us.
- So Dad really is sick, then.
What about Gilly? He's the oldest, right?
Shouldn't it be him?
- [Robert] Your father's actually rather unhappy
with your brother as of late.
Gilly seems to have lost his mind,
chasing after sea monsters.
- Sea monsters? Big bro, what are you doing?
I thought he was in that anger management thing,
something to do with Freddy's suit, a flaming donut.
His face was classic. It was all like, ah!
- Sir, it is my responsibility to escort you to the board
so that you may begin your new responsibilities.
- Fine, hey, Bob-meister-meister-bobber,
you think you could get our aerotech division unit
to track Gilly, you know, from the eye in the sky?
I want to see what big bro is up to nowadays.
Consider it a CEO request.
- Yes, sir.
You spoiled little...
Now I have to take orders from a 14 year old.
So undignified.
(ominous music)
- Just my luck, stuck in the middle of nowhere.
No reception.
Bob with his board of directors.
Board of dictators, more like.
Now Gloria thinks I called her ugly.
This day can't get any worse!
Come on, come on!
There you are!
Aha!
There you are.
What? No, no, no, no!
My evidence is swimming away! No!
Who are these people? (screams)
(Gilly screaming)
(Gilly sobbing)
(somber music continues)
(pensive music)
(door knocking)
- Morning, Douglas.
Thanks for helping us today. Ariel's really upset.
- Yeah, I don't blame her. It's a tough day.
- I have to say goodbye
to the most amazing friend I've ever had.
- Well, you won't have to do it alone, though.
- We should go now. Ug Wug is almost to the beach.
- Okay.
(stones clattering)
(phone dings) - Huh?
Voicemail. What? - You have one new message.
Playing unheard messages.
- [Robert] Mr. Green, due to the board receiving
no proof of your sea monster
and the concerning nature of your recent behavior,
well, Mr. Green,
the board has voted and decided that Green Industries
will be moving forward without your involvement.
We wish you the best.
Security will have your belongings shipped to you,
as you've also been barred
from all Green Industries property.
Get help, Mr. Green.
- Help!
Help!
I don't need help!
I don't need!
(Gilly screaming)
(Gilly squawking)
(Gilly squawking)
(Gilly panting)
(water splashing) (Ug Wug growling)
You! You, you've ruined everything!
You've cost me everything!
Ruined everything! This was my chance!
I could've been a gazillionaire!
I could've made my father proud!
You, little girl, you ruined everything!
(Ug Wug growling)
(Ug Wug roaring)
(Gilly gasping)
(stones clattering)
(Douglas laughs)
- Ug Wug can make people do crazy things.
Kwimu quit his office job
and became a monster researcher after meeting Ug Wug.
Oh yeah, he's met all the greats. Bigfoot, Ogopogo.
He even raised and saved a unicorn from dying.
- What? - Yeah.
Unicorns sneeze glitter.
I didn't believe any of this stuff either until I met him.
Hey, girl. Kwimu wants you to go live with him.
Remember Kwimu?
Yeah, I bet.
Remember those sea tunnels?
You could use those to help you get upriver,
up where he lives.
Do you remember where you first met him?
Good.
- I don't want to say goodbye.
But you're not safe here. I love you so much.
(Ug Wug grumbling)
(water splashing)
- Ariel, I promise Kwimu will take really good care of her.
I'll even give him a call every now and then
to tell him to give her a jam sandwich.
- Blueberry?
- Yeah, blueberry.
- Okay, 'cause those are her favorite.
- I'm sorry, babe. You may have just saved Ug Wug's life.
That's the best thing you could ever do for a friend.
(Ariel sobbing)
- If it's the right thing to do, why does it hurt so much?
- I know, babe. It doesn't seem fair, does it?
- And don't forget about these, Ariel.
Kwimu told me that these scales
are only found by people who are meant to find them.
That's your special connection to Ug Wug,
and you have a strong connection to Ug Wug.
So wherever she goes, you'll go with her, all right?
Forever. That's how the Wug magic works.
- You see, you won't ever be really far apart.
Whenever you want, just close your eyes,
and you'll be back together again.
That's a pretty powerful friendship.
- Best friends, Mom? - Best friends.
- Just like us.
- [Douglas] Ug Wug had a long swim ahead of her
through the ancient sea caves of the Reversing Falls
and way up the Saint John River.
Ariel and her mother finished their summer vacation,
and Ariel's mom was right.
Her husband didn't believe a word of it.
Ariel knew the truth, though,
and her connection to Ug Wug remained strong.
All she had to do when she was really missing her friend
was close her eyes, and magically,
her and Ug Wug were together again.
And my old friend Kwimu the great monster researcher
was true to his word.
He took very good care of Ug Wug,
and even gave her the occasional blueberry jam sandwich.
(Kwimu singing in foreign language)
(singing continues)
(water splashing)
- Good to see you again, old friend.
Ariel asked me to make these blueberry sandwiches for you,
but you're probably not hungry.
Whoa, whoa! Okay, I'm just kidding.
Here you go.
(Ug Wug chewing)
(Ug Wug slurping)
- [Douglas] Mr. Green gave in to his fate.
No job, no Ug Wug, no hope.
Of course, what he didn't know
was that Ug Wug wasn't trying to scare him.
She was just trying to roar some sense into him,
and maybe, just maybe, it might have worked,
because when you hit rock bottom, you can only go up.
If there's one thing a Wug is good at,
it's helping people when they need it the most,
and she believed even Mr. Green deserved a second chance.
It all should've been the perfect ending.
Instead, it was just the beginning
of a much bigger adventure.
But that's a Wug of a tale for another time.
