so that I could discover...

...the ever-glorious...

...Mysterious Island.

Smoothie?

Oh, thank you.

This the radio you used

to send the signal?

Yes. I made it myself...

...out of an alarm clock...

...some copper I mined in the hills

over there and a teaspoon.

You know how long it took me

to make it?

Oh, I don't know.

Probably a little less than...

...who cares?

Three months. You know how long...

...it would've taken you?

Ooh...

Forever. Ha-ha-ha!

Let's just contact...

...Palau, get off this island.

It's not that easy, darling.

You have to wait for the satellite...

...to come around to the proper position.

How long's that gonna take?

Oh, about two weeks.

Wait, do you mean

we're stuck here for two weeks?

"Stuck here"? I think it'll be fun.

We can get to know each other better.

Surviving here won't be fun.

How will your mom feel

if we're off the grid for two weeks?

By the time you get back,

she's probably gonna be remarried.

You gonna let him talk to you like that?

It's okay.

Okay, so, what's the plan,

Colonel Sanders?

How about you show us

more of your trinkets...

...that won't get us off this island?

Anyone else thinking about

the eggs hatching?

If you're afraid of a few critters,

maybe you shouldn't have come, Henry.

It is called the Mysterious Island.

Should've expected mysterious things.

It's right in the title.

I know what the book says.

You wanted to find Mysterious Island.

Mission accomplished.

You wanted to find your grandmother.

Mission accomplished.

At daybreak we're out of here.

And for the last time, it's Hank.

What's the hurry?

Tomorrow, I am gonna

show you a place...

...that will take your breath away.

Like forever?

You're all gonna find out.

So let's get some shut-eye.

It's a big day tomorrow.

Good nighty, honey.

- Good night, Papa.

- Good nighty.

Hey, how's it going?

Well, apart from you stranding us

on this stupid island, just fine.

Good. Good.

So, hey, I was thinking, you know,

sometime we could hang out or something...

...if you wanted to.

I have a feeling that your idea of fun and

my idea of fun are two very different things.

What do you like doing on the weekends?

Collect and label mollusks.

No way! Me too. I'm way into mollusks.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Well, which one's your favorite?

Mine's the Mxyzptlk snail.

You're not gonna believe me,

but that's my favorite too.

I just made that up.

Mxyzptlk isn't a snail.

It's one of Superman's archenemies.

Way to slay the heart.

- Whatever.

- Getting the attention of a woman...

...is one of the hardest things

to do.

All right.

So, what do I do, Casanova?

I been waiting a long time

to have this talk with you, buddy.
