Last summer,
me and my brothers-
- My brothers and I.
- Whatever.
We spent the summer the way
we always do, at our grandpa's cabin.
Yeah.! While most kids
are at some stupid camp...
- me and my brothers-
- My brothers and I.
- Whatever.!
- Whatever.!
We spent the summer learning old-fashioned
and really cool ninja stuff...
from ourJapanese grandfather.
Most days began the same way. Every morning
he would wake us up with a different test.
Grandpa's a kind of
a goofball in a way.
But when it comes to martial arts
and stuff,he's pretty cool.
Yeah. He could slaughter
50 guys in two seconds.
- Would you chill?
- Shut up.
- Keep going.
- We've been training since we were really little.
- You're still really little.
- Jerk.!
The summer was ending
and we were going back to school.
We all thought we were
ready to be ninjas.
It's a good thing that we were,
because that was a summer...
that we would never forget.
Hai-ya!
Hai-ya! Hai-ya!
Hai-ya! Hai-ya!
Hai-ya!
Hai-ya!
Hai-ya! Hai-ya!
Oooh!
- Where'd he go?
- Where is he?
Yoo-hoo.! Up here.!
Grandpa, how'd you do that?
Next time, try attacking
in a non-smoking section.
- We almost had you.
- Yeah, we almost had you.
- Had me! Oh, Michael!
- What?
If I hadn't stopped the car, you would
have been called "pancake" by now.
- You would've stopped.
- Okay, guys.
- What now?
- Let's take him again!
Ah, two lessons you have to learn
from this battle.
Number one:
never attack...
unless you're gonna win.
And lesson two?
Don't climb a tree
that's full of thorns. Oooh!
Okay.
Grandpa, where'd you get
that ugly mask?
This mask my father gave to me
on my Day of Names...
and I will continue
this tradition with you.
- The "Day of Names"?
- We've already got names, Grandpa.
Ah, you may have family names,
but not ninja names.
- All right, Samuel!
- Sir!
From this day forward, until forever...
you shall be known as "Rocky,"
because you are strong, solid...
and cool as granite rock.
Awesome, yeah!
Jeffrey, ah, you are fast and free...
spirit of the young, wild horse.
You shall be known as "Colt"!
Colt?
That's cool.
What about me?
Can I be "Monster Destroyer"?
Or how about "Super Killer"?
- How about "Super Dork"?
- Shut up, spaz.
A little one...
since your energy begins and ends
with your tummy...
you shall be known as "Tum Tum"!
Tum Tum?
- I can't wait to show these to Dad.
- He'll hate 'em.
Grandpa, will our dad be home tomorrow
when we get back?
Well... he's a busy man...
in a very troublesome job, Tum Tum.
We're almost there.
On time, as promised.
It is a pleasure to
do business with you, Mr. Snyder.
Now, on behalf of
the people of my country...
I would like to say...
you're under arrest.
Freeze, Snyder.! F.B.I..!
Nah-nah-nah nah-nah
Hold your fire!
Give it up, Snyder!
You got nowhere to go.
A surprise.
I love surprises.
The F.B.I., whoo!
Nice of you to drop in.
All right, freeze, Snyder.
It's over. Don't move a muscle.!
I'd love to stay and chat,
but I've got to fly.
Agent Green is okay,
and we got everything.
We got guns, the mortars.
It's like a warehouse for World War III.
- We got it all!
- We got nothing! I want Snyder!
He's everything. I want him.
I gotta go. Bye.
I hear they almost got us, boss.
Me!
Got me, Brown. Not us!
- My skin was on the line today.
- Fine, yeah.
That cop was Sam Douglas,
for God's sake!
I knew him when I worked
with Mori Tanaka.
That F.B.I. guy's a ninja too?
Douglas hates martial arts.
Mori Tanaka's my ex-partner, and
Douglas married his daughter, you idiot!
