Synopsis: Surly and his friends, Buddy, Andie and Precious discover that the mayor of Oakton City is cracking one big hustle to build a giant yet quite-shabby amusement park, which in turn will bulldoze their home, which is the city park, and it's up to them and the rest of the park animals to stop the mayor, along with his daughter and a mad animal control officer from getting away with his scheme, and take back the park.

so we're gonna need to let

them down easy. Got it?

All right.

Follow my lead.

Oh!

Hey, Surly's back.

Come on.

Yay. Surly.

Surly!

Surly, Yeah!

Did you find food?

Uh...

They found food.

What Buddy means

is we found food,

but it's complicated.

Did you find popcorn?

Buddy!

Did you find donuts?

Here's the thing...

How many donuts?

Everybody hold on!

Eight donuts?

There is no food!

We're all gonna die!

Everybody calm down.

Calm down!

Thank you.

Come on, guys.

Look around.

We're the luckiest animals

in the world.

Our park has everything we need.

This park's our home

What are you doing?

Singing. It felt like

the right thing to do.

When's the last time

you saw somebody

spontaneously break into song'?

Oh, come on.

They were into it.

It was a little awkward.

You're not a great singer.

Honestly, it was kind of pitchy.

Jeez. Tough crowd.

We all love the park,

but please...

Please, never do that again.

One question!

One question!

Ladies and gentlemen

of the press,

welcome to Liberty Park.

I think we can all agree

this boring old park

needs a shot in the arm.

Behold!

Libertyland!

The greatest place on Earth!

Who wants a regular park

when you can have

an amusement park'?

It's more fun,

more rides, more games,

and more profit.

Libertyland is

my greatest creation.

You told me I was

your greatest creation.

No, no. Of course

you are, sweetheart.

No, Libertyland is

my second-greatest creation.

No, no, no.

This is all wrong.

I want the Tilt-A-Whirl

here, bumper cars here,

and cotton candy

here, here, here,

here, here, and here.

That's a lot of

cotton candy now, snookums.

We don't want

your teeth to fall out.

But I want it!

Okay. She wants her teeth

to fall out, let's do it.

Can we get some more

cotton candy in here, please?

Yes, sir.

Now!

This doesn't look good.

Why don't you sing

a song about it?

Mr. Mayor, over here.

Mr. Mayor. Mr. Mayor,

what's going to happen

to the animals in the park?

Ah, nobody cares about

these animals.

Nobody cares more than me.

Look, don't you worry.

I will take care of them.

I will make sure

they're all taken care of.

And without further ado,

let the groundbreaking begin!

Look at that sign.

They're gonna destroy the park.

We're all gonna die!

Calm down. It's a fat guy

with a tiny shovel.

How much damage can he do?

Oh, I get it.

The tiny shovel was

a symbolic gesture.

Oh, no.

Run!

Well, my work here is done.

You see, sweetheart?

I make the speech,

they do the work.

Whew!

Abandon park!

Hey, where's everyone going?

Wait up. Andie.

Andie!

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hey, slow down.

Who put you in charge?

This isn't about
