every bug and every budget.

I guaranteesmall things will die.

is my middle name.
Whew.
[whispers] oh, no.
[gasps]
Arrietty:
Ow!Oh!
Unh!
Wow.
Go on. Go ahead, bean.
Get it over with.
This is incredible.
You can talk.
Get what over with?
The squishing.
You are going
to squish me,
So get on with it.
Why would you want me
to do that?
I don't want you
to do it.
It's just what
beans do.
What's a bean?
You are.
A human bean?
I think you mean...
Never mind. Look, I'm not
going to squish you.
You're not?
No, of course not.
This is amazing.
I knew something strange
was going on in our house,
But I never, ever imagined
Stolen? No. We don't
steal, we borrow.
We're Borrowers,
and you're our bean.
Beans provide you
with things to borrow.
But they'll squish you
as soon as look at you.
Who told you that?
My dad.
There are more of you?
Just my dad, my mum,
and my little brother.
There used to be more of us,
but they've gone away.
We're the last
of the Borrowers.
We have to move. The house
is being demolished.
Demolished?
Yeah. My great aunt
left us the house,
But she didn't write it
down in a will,
So now this stupid man
Potter's gonna tear it down.
So we have to move.
But what about us?
You, too, I guess.
This is terrible.
This is...
Terrible!
Maybe there's some way
I can help.
No, no, no, and again, no.
I will not put
the fate of my family
In the hands
of a trap-setting,
Borrower-squishing,
10-year-old bean.
Goes against everything
I was taught,
Everything I believe in.
Your father is
absolutely right...
For once.
Dad, if you'll
just listen--
No! No! No!
It's not going to happen!
[murmuring]
We're inside.
This is
a walkie-talkie.
[squeals]
ow! Ow!
Sorry. This'll
let you know
What's happening
every step of the way.
[slowly] how...Far...Are...
We...Going, bean?
Not far.
The new house is just on
the other side of town,
Next to the old church.
I think it's
about a mile.
A mile?!
Oh, I feel faint.
Listen up, bean!
If anything happens
to my family,
I'm holding you
personally responsible!
Got it?
Yes, sir.
Brought you
something to eat.
And this must be yours.
Dad found it, and
I fixed it for you.
I knew it wasn't mice.
Huh...Ah...
Thank you.
Pete?
He's here, honey.
That's the last of it.
Ooh!
Oof!
