Norm of the North
Don't listen to the haters, Norm.
You're a polar bear.
You got this.
I mean, look at those paws.
You're an animal-- literally.
It's an all-you-can-eat seal buffet.
Go fill your plate.
Read 'em and weep, boys.
Cari-boo-yah!
Full house.
I'd bet antlers he fails again.
Ah, he looks hungry.
I'm giving ten-to-one odds
he catches the poor pinniped.
They say I can't hunt.
Oy, phooey! How can I be king
if I can't hunt?
This is gonna hurt.
Oh!
That wasn't so bad.
Oy, that was bad.
They say he doesn't have any focus.
Huh? Hi, Elizabeth.
Hi.
Augh!
Jeez, it's like pure ice up here.
An accident waiting to happen,
you know?
I mean, somebody should really
Ahem.
Lemmings.
Anyway, I really
should get goin' now.
I've got a seal to go catch
and eat and I--
anyway, I uh--
See ya, gotta go.
Bye now.
Catch ya later, Elizabeth.
Babe, look! A hunt!
This trip is finally payin' off.
Any last words before I eat you?
Oh, come on. Don't say that.
You always know exactly
what to say to get to me.
Eat him. Eat him!
- Yeah! Eat him.
- Eat him!
You wanna know
why I'm not gonna eat you?
You got a minute?
Well, maybe an hour.
It all started when I turned 13.
how we'd start getting
more fur on our bodies.
But they didn't say anything
about speaking to humans.
I want one! I want one!
I want one! I want one!
Aren't they supposed to stay
50 yards away?
If this little brat takes one more step,
I'm gonna pounce.
Keep it up, kid.
The only thing you're gonna get
is a mauling.
Can't ya see we're wild animals here?
Did you just talk to me?
Wait. You can speak bear?
No, dummy,
you're speaking human.
I didn't know what to do.
No other bear seemed to be able
to speak human.
had these weird feelings that I had.
So I went to go see
the wisest bear in the world.
The King of the Arctic,
who conveniently
was also my grandpa.
I don't know what to do.
I didn't ask for this.
What is wrong with me?
Nothing is wrong with you, Norm.
You're special.
Yeah, a real one of a kind.
Actually, more like two of a kind.
I share the same trait.
I, too, can speak to our human visitors.
You can talk to them, too?
I can.
Polar bears are icons
of the Arctic, Norm.
And an icon with a voice
can be very powerful indeed.
Our land is vulnerable
and we're responsible.
For now, just know
that what you and I have
is a great gift.
One day you'll truly understand.
But when will I understand?
But it didn't end there.
Human tendencies
had taken over my body.
That's when I started doing
the Arctic Shake.
Everybody
Let me speak free
Be who you wanna be,
stand up and shout...
I put the "soul"
in winter solstice.
Get down move your body
all around F
Let your crazy out,
let your crazy out
- Shout...
- Until the batteries ran out.
These days, I'm pretty glad
I have these feelings,
but I just don't know
what to do with them.
And that brings me
to the other day.
Why don't you take a picture?
It'll last longer.
I knew he wouldn't kill the seal.
- Pay up.
- Fine, here.
grow back.
I'm a bear who can't hunt.
I'm softer than frozen yogurt.
Who needs a bear
with too much care
and not enough scare?
Norm!
What is that, a haiku?
What did Dad tell you
about writing poetry?
I know, I know. "Leave the poetry
to the panda bears."
What's up, Stan?
I only caught the tail end of it...
but I made some money
off your failed hunt today, big bro.
I wish I'd caught the tail end
