Albert Page #2

Synopsis: Albert is the story of a tiny Douglas fir tree named Albert who has big dreams of becoming Empire City's most famous Christmas tree. When the search for this year's tree is announced, Albert believes he has found his calling and hits the road with his two best friends, Maisie the persistently positive plam tree, and Gene the abrasive and blisteringly honest weed, to fulfill his destiny. With a few prickly situations along the way, and Cactus Pete out to stop him, Albert learns the true meaning of Christmas.

That's so close!

- Ugh. What are they

putting in your mulch?

- Wait, now hold on,

hold on, hold on.

You're leaving us, Albert?

[plants murmur]

- Albert, we--we love you.

[cacti whimpering, sobbing]

- I will never forget

you guys.

- Again, I don't wanna

alarm anybody,

but Albert,

your ride's leavin'!

[gasps]

- You'll be sorry!

- No. I'll be

a Christmas tree!

[laughs]

ALL:
Go, go, go!

- No, no, no!

- What the dingus

is goin' on here?

[plants gasp]

- Oops!

[clang]

[lightly suspenseful music]

- Go, Albert.

Follow your dreams!

- Ha ha ha ha!

[chuckles]

It's gonna be a very

peaceful Christmas this year.

[squish]

- Ooh!

[clang]

[cacti giggling]

[exciting music]

[]

- Whaa--

Albert!

[gasps]

- Albert!

- Maisie!

[exciting music]

[thud]

[grunts]

- Whoo-hoo!

[]

- Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh--

- Whoa--oh-oh-oh!

No, no, no!

Oh, my lights!

I can't be the Empire City

Tree without my lights!

Yaaaah!

Oof!

- One more stop

at Baker's Hill and then...

- Empire City!

And then...

- The greatest Christmas Tree

in the world!

- Whoa!

So this is outside.

- Yeah, brutal, ugly, and cold.

Brrr...

[soft crying]

- Do you hear that?

It's like someone's crying.

[crying continues]

- We're being transplanted!

[laughs] Aww!

Aren't they cute?

[all crying]

- Can I tell you a secret?

I'm on my

way to a new place too.

You think I'm scared?

I am.

- You are?

- Yeah, even a big tree like me.

Sometimes we all feel small.

But that's okay,

as long as it doesn't stop you

from doing big things.

[giggles]

[bang]

ALL:
Whoa!

[gasps]

[suspenseful music]

Noooooo!

[rapid hopping thuds]

- Uh, Dad, what's Grandma's

little tree doing on the truck?

- You're seeing things,

honey.

- Not things.

Grandma's tree!

- Ah...

[brakes squeak]

[clattering]

- Uh-oh!

- Oh, bite my bark.

[suspenseful music]

[]

[dramatic musical buildup]

- Holy Blitzen!

Coulda sworn I covered those up.

- The tree was here.

I saw it!

- Maybe you're just hungry,

sweetie.

Let's get some lunch!

I see things

when I'm hungry, too.

One time,

I saw a giant fried chicken.

- Whoo!

That was close.

- I think I wet my soil.

[muffled]

Help!

Help!

[louder]

Help!

Help!

- Talking snow!

- Whoa! The outside

is a strange

and mysterious place.

[groans]

Ugh!

Someone's underneath!

[gasps]

[whimpers]

Cold, cold, cold!

[gasping breath]

Ohh...

Ohh...uhh!

Sweet relief!

I got snow in places

no cactus should have snow!

- Hey, are you okay, mister?

- Mister?

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

like you don't know who I am.

I love it, the whole

not recognizing me thing.

Hello!

Cactus Pete!

Come on down

to Cactus Pete's

We'll show you

A prickly good
