Gnomeo and Juliet's Adventures of Air Buddies/Transcript

This is the script for Gnomeo and Juliet's Adventures of Air Buddies.

[The film begins in Fernfield]

Deputy Sniffer: Welcome to Fernfield, where we like to say where everything is possible. I've been the deputy of this here town since way back then. And never have I seen an adventure like the one I'm about to tell ya.

[A flashback with Air Bud (Buddy) playing a basketball game]

Deputy Sniffer: As you may already know Fernfield is home to the world famous Air Bud. A true sports legend who's first love had always been the game.

[The screen shows Buddy playing various sports]

[The scene then changes to Buddy and Molly meeting for the first time]

Deputy Sniffer: But that all changed the day Molly, a brown-eyed gal with golden locks, moved in across the street.

[Later, it shows Molly and Buddy having pups]

Deputy Sniffer: And Buddy fell head over tail for her. Gosh, it was enough to make my own heart skip a beat. It wasn't long before we heard the pitter patter of little paws. Buddy and Molly were blessed with five adorable pups. Known around these parts as the Buddies.

[A kid pours dog biscuits in five dog bowls]

Deputy Sniffer: Let's see, you got the big fella Budderball, you just can't seem to fill this pup up. B-Dawg is the B-ball home dog when the kids say he's all about the big bling. Buddha's one of them Zen puppies you know always meditating and doing that yoga stuff. Mudbud? Well, his name says it all. He'd take mud over a bathtub anyday. And last but not least, Rosebud. Don't let her pretty looks fool ya. She's as feisty as her brothers. These little Buddies were growing up so fast and becoming quite the handful. Enough to tire out a young-n let alone an old loser like myself. [clears throat] Hey, I'm down here! I'm Deputy Sniffer. This here is Sheriff Bob. Now there comes a time in every pup's life where they must say goodbye to the home they once knew and say hello to a new one. And that's where our story begins.

[The film begins at Buddy's home. A garden gnome with a blue hat, Gnomeo, peeks out of a bush]

Gnomeo: Okay. All clear.

[He jumps out, shortly after followed by a red gnome, Juliet, and other red and blue gnomes with the inclusion of Sherlock Gnomes, Wattson and Fawn the deer]

Juliet: Are you sure this is the place?

Gnomeo: This is it. I'm certain.

[Using a pipe, they climb up to the roof and to the room where Rosebud, Budderball, Buddha, Mudbud and B-Dawg are]

[The five pups turn and spot them]

Budderball: Hey, check it out. We've got some moving gnomes in the house.

Gnomeo: Hi, I'm Gnomeo. This is Juliet.

Juliet: Hello.

Gnomeo: This is my best mate, Benny. Benny, say what's up?

Benny: What's up?

Gnomeo: And these are our friends and parents.

Rosebud: Nice to meet you. I'm Rosebud.

Budderball: Name's Budderball.

Buddha: Buddha is present.

Mudbud: Mudbud's the name. Mud's my game.

B-Dawg: Yo, dawgs, B-Dawg in the da house.

[Downstairs]

Noah's Mom: Noah, come on. We've gotta go now!

Noah's Dad: We're gonna be late for the game!

[Upstairs, Noah and Buddy are getting ready]

Noah: Coming! [to Buddy] You go downstairs, I'll be right there. [pats his head]

[Buddy heads downstairs. The doorbell rings. Noah's father answers the door]

Noah's Dad: Oh, good. The sitter's here!

Juliet: Sitter?

Budderball: We're being puppy-sat while Dad gets to go to a big game.

[The sitter, Mrs. Niggles, enters]

Mrs. Niggles: I prefer the professional distinction of "Nanny", if you don't mind. [Buddy barks] Hello, Buddy.

Noah's Mom: Hi, Mrs. Niggles.

[Upstairs, Noah goes to the Buddies' room]

Rosebud: Noah's coming!

Gnomeo: [gasps] Everyone freeze!

[The gnomes, Gnomeo, Juliet and Benny freeze just as Noah enters]

Noah: I'm serious. You guys need to chill. Be back soon, okay? [leaves]

RoseBud: Okay, he's gone. You can move now.

[The gnomes unfreeze]

Mudbud: Dudes, that's amazing how you can stay quiet for so long.

[The Buddies get out of their basket. Back downstairs, Noah arrives]

Noah's mom: [sighs]

Noah: Sorry. I had to say goodbye. I think they're sad that they can't come.

Noah's mom: Aw. Now go say hi.

Noah: Hi, Mrs. Niggles.

Mrs. Niggles: I worked all day on this little piece of perfection. Blueberry pie just for my favorite little boy.

[The Buddies watch from the landing]

Budderball: Did someone say Blueberry pie?

Gnomeo: [whispering] Mate, put a muzzle on it, will ya? They'll hear you.

Mudbud: Dudes, if we wanna go to the game, we're gonna have to get by Niggles.

Buddha: Words of wisdom, Mudbud.

B-Dawg: This game's gonna be off the chain insane.

Mrs. Niggles: Where are the little darlings?

Noah: They're up in their room, playing.

Noah's Dad: Time to go.

Noah's mom: Bye, buddies!

[Buddy barks]

Mrs. Niggles: Have fun!

[The family heads outside]

Budderball: Come on, guys! Follow me!

[The pups grab their balls and head downstairs to the door. Mrs. Niggels cuts them off]

Mrs. Niggles: [clears her throat] And where might you think you were going? Ooh, I know what you little Buddies want! Bathtime it is!

[The buddies drop their balls in dismay]

Gnomeo: Great. Their one chance and that lady had to spoil it for them.

[Juliet facepalms whilst Benny shakes his head. Outside]

Joshua's Mom: Hi, Lola. Hi, Bob.

Noah's parent: Hi, guys. Already for the game?

Joshua's dad: Let's get this show on the road.

[After sometime chatting, the families get in the car]

Mrs. Niggles: Cleanliness is next to cuddliness. [notices there are four puppies] One. Two. Three. Four. Somebody's missing. [finds Mudbud behind the rack and picks him up] Come here, you mucky pup.

[Gnomeo watches from the doorway]

Gnomeo: Aw, come on! What? I thought we'd sorted it this time.

[Mrs. Niggles puts Mudbud in the bath]

Mrs. Niggles: In you pop. Oh, bathtime is so much fun. Rubb-a-dub-dub, five puppies in the tub.

[Later]

Mrs. Niggles: Have a nice nap. Now, you behave. I'll be back in an hour.

[She leaves]

Gnomeo: [muffled] She gone yet?

Budderball: Yep. You can move now.

[The gnomes unfreeze]

B-Dawg: Nobody tells B-Dawg he's gotta take a nap.

[The Buddies get out of their basket, with the gnomes following. Downstairs, Mrs. Niggles does some knitting]

Gnomeo: Careful. We've gotta make sure she doesn't see us.

Rosebud: Hey, look. She's got a ball.

B-Dawg: If the Buddies can't go the game, the game will come to the Buddies.

Buddha: Sssh. Mrs. Niggles is finding her inner peace. She's falling asleep.

Budderball: I don't know about my inner peace. But, I want a piece of that pie.

Buddha: She's going...

Budderball: Going...

Rosebud: Going...

B-Dawg: Going...

Mudbud: Going...

Gnomeo: And she's gone.

Budderball: I'm going in.

Gnomeo: You heard the big fella. Let's make a break for it boys.

[The buddies and gnomes head downstairs. As the buddies play with the balls, strings wraps itself around Mrs. Niggles]

Gnomeo: Superstar Rosebud has stolen the ball! Will she be able to get the ball past Budderball? Let's find out.

[Rosebud kicks the ball next to Budderball]

Gnomeo: Goooooaaal!

B-Dawg: B-Dawg shoots! [hits the basket] Oh, nothin' but net!

Mudbud: If Mudbud gets this point, the beach volleyball world championship is his.

[Mudbud kicks a ball and Buddha hits another with a bat]

Buddha: Be one with the ball.

[Budderball runs with a ball then drops it spotting the pie]

Budderball: Budderball wins the souper bowl. And now for a little post game celebration.

[Budderball tries to climb the desk the pie is sat on]

B-Dawg: Check it out. Budderball's going for the pie.

Buddha: You can do it, Budderball.

Gnomeo: You do know this could get you in big trouble.

[Budderball finally gets up]

Budderball: Touchdown! [woofs]

B-Dawg: Budderball, have I told you lately you're my main pup.

[Budderball pushes the pie off the desk and it splats on the floor]

[Mrs. Niggles wakes up]

Mrs. Niggles: Oh, my goodness.

Rosebud: Uh-oh, we woke up Mrs. Niggles.

Mudbud: No worries, dudes. She's stuck.

Mrs. Niggles: You rascals are in very big trouble. Help! Help!

Gnomeo: I had a feeling this was going to happen.

Mrs. Niggles: My beautiful pie. How could you?

[Later]

Mudbud: So stuffed!

[The cars arrive and the buddies and gnomes scamper back up stairs. The family enters]

[Later]

Gnomeo: This has got you in enough trouble.

[With Noah and his dad]

Noah: Are we really getting rid of them, dad?

[Elsewhere]

[He meets with another man and his son in a room]

Sedrik: Mr. Livingston. Good to see you. And you too, Mr. Bartleby. Wait till you see what I got you.

[He opens a cell with a tiger in a cage]

[Bartleby throws his ball against the wall]

Bartleby: But I wanted an animal I can play with. I want Air Bud.

[After some time talking the men discuss the right prize. The next day]

[A boy drops a paper outside the house. Benny watches from the Buddies' room window]

Benny: Paper's here.

Rosebud: You're about to get a lesson in girl power.

Rosebud: Wait for the whistle.

[The boy whistles. The buddies scamper downstairs]

Gnomeo: Uh-oh. Come on.

[The gnomes follow the puppies. Buddy follows. Later on, the family discuss the puppies' new owners. Gnomeo watches]

[Just as Molly looks behind her, Gnomeo runs off. In the Buddies' room]

Gnomeo: Mates, your mother saw me so I had to get outta there fast. They've just finished choosing your new homes and they're taking you to them tomorrow.

Buddies: Tomorrow?

Budderball: But tomorrow is taco night.

Juliet: Like one of the Sirens likes tacos?

[Denning and Grim arrive in Fernfield in their truck]

[The next day]

Gnomeo: Hey, you pups awake? Get up, sleepheads!

[The Buddies wake up]

Rosebud: We know.

Gnomeo: Mudbud and I discussed it and it looks we have to get you out of here. You have to run away.

Buddha: Running away from our troubles won't solve our problems.

Gnomeo: Well, are you all in or out?

Buddies: In.

[The gnomes and puppies run off. Denning and Grim follow]

[Buddy and Molly follow but are captured]

Gnomeo: No!

Juliet: Come on!

[They chase after the truck]

[They lose]

RoseBud: We got mom and dad dog-napped.

Juliet: Good going, Gnomeo.

Gnomeo: So, this is my fault now, isn’t it?

Budderball: Would you two break it up? Right now, we've got bigger problems.

Mudbud: How do we know where they're going?

RoseBud: Deputy Sniffer. He can help. He's the world's greatest tracker.

[The Buddies and the gnomes set off]

[At the Police station]

Gnomeo: Hey, you, Big fella, get up!

[Sniffer wakes up]

Deputy Sniffer: Hey, there.

Gnomeo: Look, we need your help. These pups, they're parents have been kidnapped. We have no idea where they are going.

[The gnomes and Buddies got to the Fernfield town map]

Gnomeo: The Fernfield town map. Sniffer said Wine Country right?

Juliet: Right. So we go past this drive-in and then through that farm.

Gnomeo: You've got it, Juliet. Let's go!

[They set off]

[Later]

Gnomeo: My legs are tired.

[He hears noises]

[He follows them as do Juliet and the pups]

Gnomeo: Look, the drive-in! We made it!

[101 Dalmations is on the screen]

Gnomeo: Come on, this way.

[He leads them to the farm]

Gnomeo: Now all we have to do is go right through here.

[A goat named Billy shows up]

Billy: Who goes there? Friend or foe?

Juliet: Friends, if you don't mind?

[Denning and Grim show up]

Gnomeo: Uh-oh! Time to skidaddle.

[They run into the farm]

Gnomeo: Hey, excuse me.

[A pig sees them]
