The Penguin on the Run

Frank Honey:

I mean I gotta tell you, Chase McCain.

That the song always gets me right here.

Yeah, Frank Honey. Well about that?

Frank Honey:

Um, Chase McCain, what are you doing?

Chase McCain:

I'm fast-forwarding to

the part where we come in.

Frank Honey:

But you can't go out of order.

Chase McCain:

Au contraire, my porcine pal.

I've got the remote.

Frank Honey:

When everyone's gonna get confused.

We've got to go back to

the beginning of the story.

Chase McCain:

We're not at the beginning of the story.

Frank Honey:

Yes, we're the whole time.

Chase McCain:

Yeah, but they don't know that.

Frank Honey:

Then why don't we tell them our story?

Chase McCain:

Hey, I've got an idea. Why

don't we tell them our story?

Frank Honey:

Oh, I like the sound of that.

Chase McCain:

A little backstage tour. Take him.

Behind the scenes for

revealing an intimate.

Look at the story within the story.

Frank Honey:

Cuz what they don't know,

is how we were there.

Even though they didn't know,

we were there, you know.

Chase McCain:

Goodness ended better myself.

Frank Honey:

So this is mean we're going

back to the beginning.

Chase McCain:

Oh no, Frank.

No, we're going way back,

took the four of the beginning.

Frank Honey:

Coney Island.

Chase McCain:

So criminous.

Frank Honey:

So powerful.

Chase McCain:

So... extremely named.

Frank, how can the beach be located?

It's an amusement park!

Frank Honey:

Well, I think it's because "Coney Island"

is what they call a group of ninjas.

Chase McCain:

Oh, sure, the robots get Coney Island.

And what about us police officers?

Where I come from we didn't

have anything to be proud of.

Why...

[clears throat]

Chase McCain:

(singing)

When he was the strongest rocker...

When Marshall was the teenage ninja...!

Chase McCain:

Very nice.

Frank Honey:

Thanks!

Chase McCain:

But maybe it'd be safer if I just

show 'em where I came from.

Frank Honey:

Oh, oh! Do we get to see

where you grew up?

Chase McCain:

Yeah, Frank Honey, but it ain't pretty.

Please remain seated while

the camera is in motion.

Here we are Long Island.

We're so low on the food chain,

we're underground!

But you don't have to take my word for it.

I'll just let my police officers do the talking.

People of New York:

What happened?!

What happened?! Shush!

What happened?!

What happened?!

Where? What?

Where? Where? Shush!

Oh! What's that sound?! Shush!

Quick, after the supervillains come!

Guard:

CLEAR!

People of New York:

To the surface,

Swim, to the surface

When you're done ya

swim a boogie surface

To the surface,

Swim, to the surface

Quick, after the supervillains come!

Swim!

To the surface,

Swim, to the surface

You can swim and never get cold

Swim, to the surface

What's that sound?!

Quick, after the supervillain come!

SWIM!

To the surface is what we do

Life's a surface we're swimmin' through

To the surface is what we sing

To the surface is everything!

New and improved is a police's friend

Always more around every bend

And when you get to your underwater

Hallelujah! Let's swim again!

SWIM!

To the surface,

Swim, to the surface (To the surface)

When you're done ya

swim a boogie surface

To the surface, (Gotta go fast)

Swim, to the surface.

What's that sound?!

Quick, after the supervillain come!

SWIM!

Natalia Kowalski:

Chase!

Excuse me.

Have you seen my boyfriend?

Has he been through here?

Chase!

Henrik Kowalski:

To the surface, swim, to the surface...

to the surface, swim, swim—Aaaah!

Natalia Kowalski:

Henrik Kowalski?

Henrik Kowalski:

(spooked)

Aaahh!

Natalia Kowalski:

Henrik Kowalski, relax.

Have you seen Chase McCain?

Henrik Kowalski:

No, I haven't—and

what a day it's been!

No fractures, no lacerations,

no concussions, contusions,

or injuries of any sort.

As a matter of fact, there's no sign

of Chase's handiwork anywhere!

That would be... CHASE MCCAIN!

Chase McCain:

Heh heh heh. Hello, everybody!

Shorty:

Haha. Nice work, Chase.

Twitchy:

Way to go, police officer.

Fly:

Who else could flow the ocean?

Teenage Boy:

Four in a week—a new record!

Natalia Kowalski:

Not again.

Chase McCain:

It's called "beach"!

Natalia Kowalski:

Ho ho. Wow!

Isn't that creative.

Long Island!

Oh, haha.

I'll just have a word with him.

Chase McCain:

I... I was just trying to shed a little

light on our pathetic existence.

Natalia Kowalski:

Chase, this can't go on.

Just this month, you've pulled down four

walls and collapsed two sea tunnel exits.

We have to look after each other.

Our survival depends on it.

Chase McCain:

What's the point? All we do is swim so

we can hide, and hide so we can swim.

I wanna be where we don't have to sea tunnels

and live with our heads over in the ocean.

What's so bad about

dreaming of a better home?

Natalia Kowalski:

I wanna show you something.

Look, Chase. Go on, look.

Watch out to the beach,

past years, from the ocean.

Everything the light touches...

belongs to someone else!

Chase McCain:

Comic genius. I thought you were going

a whole different direction with this.

Natalia Kowalski:

What can I say?

It's the beach's design.

Henrik Kowalski:

She's right!

We're food for other plates

of seafood—a moveable feast.

Feared by no one and eaten by all!

Chase McCain:

But when they die, they

become the heroes.

And we eat the donuts... right?

Henrik Kowalski:

Not exactly; we can't beach sand.

We're donut intolerant.

Natalia Kowalski:

(snatches Chase away)

Okay, Henrik Kowalski.

Thank you.

You've been a big help.

(To Chase)

My boy, I—
