And if he feels it enough,

he'll stand for us."

I can't even stand for myself.

Norm, don't listen to them.

They're just furry robots

sitting in their ice cubicles

obeying the rules,

pretending nothing bad's

ever gonna happen.

But you can change the rules.

You're seeing the future.

They're just living in the past.

You can find a new way.

Don't just dance for the humans.

Fight for our home instead.

Okay. I won't let you down.

- Socrates!

- Cranberries!

Surprise is the number-one cause

of death in the elderly, you know.

Ooh...

We have to do something.

I have to do something. Unh!

Ah, number one or number two?

- We gotta take some--

- Action!

What the heck is that?

Caw! That is proof of why

you should stay in school.

First you're cutting class,

next you're dressing up in a bear suit

doing twirls

for a real estate commercial.

The seals would kill him.

Cut!

Who said that?

I'm the only one who yells, "Cut!"

I'm the director.

I'm not just going to be a furry robot

sitting in an ice cubicle.

We have to point that director

in a new direction.

Oh, great.

A suit coming to give me creative notes

on my masterpiece!

But I'll need soldiers on the ground.

Invisible soldiers.

Those little guys?

They'll get crushed.

Trust me, they're indestructible.

- What's he doing?

- He wants you to stomp on him.

He wants to prove how tough he is.

Could he sign a release first?

I'm gonna get, like,

lemming juice everywhere.

Do it.

- Ow.

- I killed him.

If I go down, Socrates,

I'm taking you down with me!

Wait for it. Wait for it.

Ta-da!

You're invincible.

You guys got springs for bones.

Can you see this, honey?

It's so beautiful, isn't it?

It's beautiful, Mom,

but what will it look like

when you and Mr. Greene

build all those houses there?

You're changing the Arctic.

Change isn't always good.

Olympia, if this campaign works

and the houses sell,

that means great things for us.

But it really is amazing up here.

Oh!

Olympia, I'll call you right back.

Hi. Vera Brightly,

Head of Marketing for Mr. Greene.

The commercial is a masterpiece!

I deserve an Oscar!

Well, you can't win an Oscar

for a commercial,

but as long as it can sell condos,

we've done our job.

Can you smell that?

The air is so fresh here.

It's completely unpolluted.

Holy Hitchcock!

That bird just pooped on me.

I think that's good luck, isn't it?

Who forgot to secure the lights?

I swear I secured them.

Is that bird aiming for us?

Oh, poop.

Oh, my gosh.

What is happening?

Vera, we're fine.

I still have the background lights.

Wait for it. Wait for it.

Don't tell me those were

the background lights.

Don't worry, Vera.

I've already shot
