without your help.

You can

make it possible.

You could walk across a field

And tell where

there's oil far beneath it.

You could foresee a revolution.

A natural disaster.

Please, Mr. Bolt,

you're too excited.

You're going to

make yourself sick.

You should go right to bed, sir.

Yes.

Yes, I will.

Anything.

Anything in this world

you ask me for, I'll bring you.

- Just never leave me.

- Not another word. Into bed.

Uncle Lucas, you look like

you could use some extra sleep

yourself.

You heard what he said.

He wants to learn

all the things we know.

We couldn't teach him,

even if we wanted to.

We... We don't know why

we do all these things.

We don't know

how it all started.

Tony, we've got to get

out of here, please.

But to what, Tia?

Where do we go?

Not to mention how.

The map.

- [Mr. Deranian] Mr. Bolt...

- Listen a second.

[Mr. Deranian] Don't lay

all your cards on the table now.

[Mr. Bolt] they're very cunning.

I don't know the

full extent of their powers.

Here they could escape.

But the chalet is an island

in a sea of blinding snow.

They'll never

escape from there.

Nutty as a fruit cake.

You see, we have to

get out of here.

I know, but there's all that

high fence and the guards...

[Mr. Deranian]

children.

Finish up your ice creams and

I'll show you to your bedrooms.

He's coming.

[footsteps approaching]

[key turning in lock]

[Winky meows]

Come on.

So far, so good.

[alarm rings]

Come on!

[whistle blows]

[dogs bark]

[barking continues]

Those dogs have ruined

all my plans.

What do you mean,

it's too late?

- Now!

- Dogs, stay.

Stay!

Good dogs.

There are some

very bad men after us.

Go get 'em!

[all shouting]

There's still

the main gate.

They're not going

to stop chasing us,

Even if we

get past this gate.

Call thunderhead.

Thunderhead,

remember what I told you.

[plays harmonica]

[whinnies]

We're at the gate now.

- Lorko's on that lever.

- I'll help.

[meows]

[sneezes]

[thunderhead whinnies]

[Tony] Winky! Winky!

- Winky!

- [meows]

[thunderhead whinnies]

Find them!

I don't care how you do it.

Chase them on a magic carpet

if you have to,

But I want

those kids back!

They rode out of here!

They're...

They're quite a challenge.

I will not rest until

I get those children back

And neither will you.

I'm a vengeful man, Deranian.

I don't make idle threats.

Find them!

[crickets chirp]

You'll be all right here,

big fella.

Thank you,

thunderhead.

[Winky meows]

- We'll miss you, thunderhead.

- [whinnies quietly]

[sirens wailing]

Those sirens are for us.

We've got to

keep moving. Come on.

They're getting closer.

Looks like you're taking

a mighty long trip, friend.
