The Croods Page #2
We see a nest with a huge unguarded blue egg. The Croods
take shelter behind a rock. Grug PEERS over the top.
GRUG:
Who’s up?
Eep’s hand SHOOTS up. Thunk is less than enthusiastic.
GRUG (CONT’D)
We’ll flip for it.
Grug LIFTS Gran on his hand, and FLIPS her up in the air.
GRUG (CONT’D)
Call her in the air.
EEP:
Heads.
Gran FACE-PLANTS, her head buried in the sand. Only hertail is showing.
GRUG:
Tails. Thunk’s in.
GRUG (CONT’D)
Positions.
The Croods 12.12.2012 6.
The family fades back and splits up. They get into
fighting/running position.
GRUG (CONT’D)
Ok. Thunk. Go. Come on Thunk.
Thunk BREAKS COVER. He dashes into the open, SNATCHES
the egg.
GRUG (CONT’D)
Hah! Way to go. Take it to the cave!
Thunk PASSES Grug and makes a bee-line for Crood Canyon.
A Gerf bird smashes Thunk and steals the egg back.
GRUG (CONT’D)
Oooh!
GRUG (CONT’D)
Release the baby.
Eep and Sandy MOVE IN on the bird. Sandy NIPS at its
heels while UGGA CLIMBS up onto its head. She PULLS the
egg from its beak.
Down range, TRIP GERBILS SURFACE. They STRETCH their
shared tail across the Ramu’s path like an arresting
cable on a carrier.
Ugga RISES to THROW the egg to Grug - the gerbils WRAP
their tail around the Ramu like a bola. The Ramu GOES
DOWN hard. Ugga and the egg ROLL forward. The Trip
Gerbils SNATCH up the egg and make off with it.
UGGA:
Get um Mom! Do it for the Croods!
Gran’s cane HOOKS the gerbils in the middle of their tail
and WHIPS them up and over her shoulder.
ON GRAN:
DRIBBLING the egg down-range with her cane like a hockey
player. LIYOTES POP UP from behind hoodoos. They SWARM
in behind her.
The Liyotes TRIP Gran. They steal the egg, and HIT THEGAS. They are INCREDIBLY FAST.
GRAN:
Old lady down! Eep, avenge me.
The Croods 12.12.2012 7.
ON EEP:
Crouched in the shade of a scrubby bush, like a runner onthe blocks - she has the Liyotes in her sights. EepLAUNCHES.
Eep runs after the Liyote with the egg, cutting him off
in his tracks he slams into a cactus launching the egginto the air. Eep leaps into the air taking back the egg.
EEP:
Thanks!
A bunch of Jackrobats see Eep and swarm around her. She
loses her footing and throws the egg to Grug.
GRUG:
Eep!
EEP:
Heads Up!
Grug catches the egg and runs by the entrance of a small
cave. Thunk following close behind accidentally trips
over the tail of a sleeping Bear Owl knocking Grug to theground and fumbling the egg once again.
Thunk catches the egg just as the Girelephant bears down
on him from behind and lifts him onto one of its tusks.
The family members meet up as they begin their long runback to the cave.
