Synopsis: Manny the woolly mammoth, Sid the sloth, Diego the saber-toothed tiger, and the hapless prehistoric squirrel/rat known as Scrat are still together and enjoying the perks of their now melting world. Manny may be ready to start a family, but nobody has seen another mammoth for a long time; Manny thinks he may be the last one. That is, until he miraculously finds Ellie, the only female mammoth left in the world. Their only problems: They can't stand each other--and Ellie somehow thinks she's a possum! Ellie comes with some excess baggage in the form of her two possum "brothers"-- Crash and Eddie, a couple of daredevil pranksters and cocky, loud-mouthed troublemakers.

again! And this time I will kill you!

Ok, someone doesn't like the classics!

What if you're right?

What if I am the last mammoth?

But Manny,

look on the bright side. you have us!

Not your most persuasive argument, Sid!

Mammoths?

I knew I couldn't be the last one!

I felt it in my trunk!

This stinks!

Come on!

Sorry! My stomach,

hates me!

Well,

Don't that put the 'stink' in extinction!

Whoa!

Sheesh!!

Oooh, Nasty!

Manny?

I ah, I need to be alone for a while,

You go on ahead. Ill catch up!

One truly is the loneliest number,

-Ow!

-Ow!, Hey!

Ohh, these work great!!

Cool!

Missed me, missed me!

Try and come and kiss me!!

Ill get 'em!

Which end is up?

I dunno, That makes two!

Hey, ugly!

Ow!, I've got to sit on that!

Got you!

Ok! Im going in!

- Sid!

- What?!

I felt some breeze in that one!

Smile!

Over here!

- Surrender?

- Never!

Cool!!

If any one asks. there were 50 of them,

, And, they were, rattlesnakes!

Here kitty-kitty,

Big mistakes you miscreants!

Miscreants?

Uh, Diego, they're pecking,

Retreat!

I guess it's just you and me now,

I knew it! I knew I wasn't the only one!

Me too! Everyone falls

out of the tree every now and then,

they just don't admit it!

Wait, what?

Some of us

have a tough time holding on to branches

I mean

it's not like we're bats or something,

We don't have wings to keep us up!

And you were in the tree. because?

I was looking for my brothers,

They are always getting into trouble,

Brothers? You mean there's more?

Sure!

, lots of us

Where?

Everywhere,

under rocks and holes in the ground,

Usually we come out

at night, so birds don't carry us off!

Help! Help!

Well!!

Shave me down and call me a mole-rat!!

Youve found another mammoth!

Where?

Wait a minute!

I thought mammoths were extinct!

What are looking at me for?

I don't know,

Maybe because you are a mammoth?

Me?!

Dont be ridiculous!

Im not a mammoth! Im a possum!

Right, good one! I'm a newt,

This is my friend, the badger,

and my other friend the platypus!

Why do I got to

be the platypus! Make him the platypus!

This guy giving you trouble, Sis?

Sis?

Thats right, these are my brothers,

Possum, Possum, Possum

I don't think her

tree goes all the way to the top branch!

Manny, the brink

of extinction is a bad time to be picky

Hey, She should come with us!

Are you insane? No way!

Ok! Manny wants me to ask you if

you'd like to escape the flood with us

What the?

Id rather be road kill!

That could be arranged!

Ha, funny!

Let me

have a little word with my brothers,

Ellie!

Are you crazy? Were not going with them!

Look! Well never make

it in time if we only travel at night,
