has not gotten the

hang of it yet.

- Watch, Jacquarai,

this is how you do it.

- We start building this

machine with other caimans

a long time ago,

trying to stop the monster.

- The monster goes

down the river, too?

- Yes!

Yes, it's almost unstoppable.

It destroyed our defense

machine many times.

A long time ago, it attacked

us with all of its might.

That's when an old

catfish friend of mine

told us of a secret weapon

he found at the

bottom of the river,

a torpedo that would

destroy the monster.

But all of our friends ran away.

Nobody was willing to fight.

- Alright, that's the spot.

- [Dad] Only we

were left behind.

- Darling, get back to work.

At this pace,

we'll never finish.

- I'm coming, honey.

I better go.

- Wait, wait, wait, wait.

I want to fight

the monster, too.

- [Dad] You're too young,

coati, and too small.

- I can't do it alone.

Don't go.

I need help.

- Insisting won't get you

anywhere, little coati.

There's nothing you can do now.

The monster has come to stay.

You can't beat it.

(splashing)

- Wait, wait.

Hmm.

I understand.

But I still think you're

all being selfish.

- Hey, Koo.

- Hello, Jacquarai.

- My parents just are doing

the best they know how, Koo.

- I'm sorry.

It's just that--

- [Jacquarai] Come,

I'll show you something.

- [Koo] Where are we going?

(playful ominous music)

Blegh, what is this place?

- This is what the

monster leaves behind.

- Where are we headed?

- I'll show you where

the monster lives.

(coughing)

- What a horrible mess.

Ew, this is just terrible.

- [Koo] Who are they?

- It's the otters.

They're very upset.

- What happened to them?

Why do they look so upset?

- [Otter] Poor us.

What are we gonna do?

- [Pedro] He's coming!

(ominous music)

- Do you think you'll

be okay all alone?

Aren't you afraid?

- Yeah, I'll be fine.

I know what I'm doing.

I made it.

- [Jacquarai] Be

careful nobody sees you.

(playful dramatic music)

- Look at that.

We got company.

- Alright, a cat.

- It's not a cat,

it's from the jungle.

- Is it edible?

- Let's find out.

(growling)

(barking)

Ouch.

(growling)

- [Dog] I'm gonna get

you, little jungle pest.

(barking)

(melancholy music)

- [Dad] Okay, we have

3,000 palms ready to ship.

- Dad?

Do these wild animals live here?

Dad.

Dad?

Dad, what are you counting?

Dad?

Dad.

- [Dad] Yeah sure,

I can find mahogany.

How much do you need?

- Dad, what is--

- [Dad] Hold up, buddy.

Yes, I'm sorry.

I was talking to my son.

Yes, of course.

- Mahogany.

Dad.

- Okay, great.

I'll see you at the meeting.

- Hey Dad, you didn't

catch the plane.

- Tommy, I was on

an important call.

(phone ringing)
