[roars]
Lower the prisoner.
[metal clanging]
[Jim grunts]
Are you still refusing to admit your friends had any hand in this?
It's my fault. I'm responsible. Everything they did was for me.
Then this is beyond even my authority. I am sorry.
James Lake, Jr., you stand accused
of unleashing Gunmar on the world and failing to protect trollkind.
If you let me out, I can fight.
You will face trial in front of the Tribunal for your crime.
If found guilty, as you say you are...
The consequence could be... death.
But an offer of mercy is on the table.
If you surrender the Amulet to be destroyed, you will be exiled.
And your life spared.
I don't understand. Then there won't be a Trollhunter.
For too long, we trolls have relied
on Merlin's antiquated magics to shelter us.
As for the evil we face tomorrow, that is up for our own race to decide,
not some human child.
I'm aware this is a terrible choice, young one, but it is solely yours to make.
The trial begins at dawn. You have until then to decide.
[grunts]
[both snoring]
[snores]
[Jim] Is this what you wanted?
To hurt everyone?
To ruin my life?
Why did you choose me, huh?
I wish I never picked you up in the first place.
[clanks]
You made a mistake.
[sighs]
[Jim] You made a mistake. I wish I never picked you up.
[Unkar] So the Amulet made a mistake, eh? You would not be the first.
-Who are you? -You don't recognize me?
Perhaps a hint or two. I didn't have much luck being a Trollhunter, either.
Trained by Blinky? Couldn't last a day? Ripped limb from limb?
Whoa. Unkar the Unfortunate?
That's what stuck? I was hoping for "Unkar the Ultimate."
Why are you here?
You wish you never picked up the Amulet in the first place?
Well, I'm here to offer you what I never had,
a second chance.
[ticking]
[alarm blaring]
[man on radio] Good morning, Arcadia Oaks!
If you're still in bed, you are missing the most beautiful sunrise.
[gasps] This should not be happening. I'm in a cage. But where is the cage?
[gasps]
[snores]
What is going on right now?
[sighs] Not raccoons.
We're late for school, Jimbo. No lunch?
No. What?
You said you were making something special for me this morning.
Nah. Maybe it's for the best. I am on a diet.
You've been on a diet for 14 years, Tobes.
Long-term goals. My body's still changing.
So you don't know that I'm a Trollhunter?
Okay. You really gotta stop skipping breakfast, Jimbo.
It's the most important meal of the day. Come on, we're gonna be late for school!
Let's take the canals.
The canals.
The Amulet.
A second chance! [laughs]
Tobes, go the long way! I don't wanna take the canals today.
Your call!
[both grunting]
[bell ringing]
Final bell! We're so late, our kids are gonna have detention!
[gasps]
-Did you say something? -Uh... Nope.
The Peloponnesian War was actually three wars
fought between Athens and Sparta.
The first war is known as the Archimedean War.
-Type that into your search engines. -I can't believe it.
Everything's the same... but not the same.
What's going on with you, dude? You've been acting weird all morning.
I don't even know how to explain, Tobes. Let's meet up with Claire and talk.
[keyboard clacking]
Claire? Like "secret crush" Claire?
You taking crazy pills? She barely knows you exist.
Oh, yeah, right.
-Jim, would you agree with Herodotus...? -Strickler! I mean, uh, uh...
-Yes, yes. [stammers] Absolutely. -[bell ringing]
[laughing]
-Jim, may I have a word? -[gasps]
Jim, you seem distracted.
I believe I'm overdue for a conversation with your mother.
No! No, no, no, no. Stay away from my mom!
[sniffs]
Oh...
I want all of you to be made of iron. Iron!
Oh, you have got to be kidding me!
I don't know what I feel more sorry for...
-you or the rope! -[exhales]
-[laughs] -Claire! Claire, we need to talk!
Um, what? Sorry, have we met?
Oh, right. You don't know who I am. I mean, you do, but...
[stammers] I mean, you will! [chuckles]
-Yeesh! Come on, Claire. -Wait!
Your brother's named Enrique, but, pretty soon, he'll be NotEnrique.
-What are you talking about? -Sorry, we were just going away from you.
So, bye, whatever your name is. Ugh.
But Shakespeare! You're Juliet and I'm Rome...
[sighs]
Tobes, I'm telling you, in my other life, she's my girlfriend.
Man, you dream big. Even in my imagination, I'm only a duke.
Uh-- It's not my imagination.
Tell me about the creatures and maybe I'll let you out.
Okay, nothing to see here.
Okay, wait. Last time, I intervened and Steve fights me.
Better Eli than you. That kid's performing a public service.
You were telling me about the monsters you saw this morning with fangs.
-And what was it again? -[Eli] Stone for skin. In the canal.
If I do nothing, Steve won't be on my case.
I won't have to worry about him anymore. Or maybe...
Dude, you've been a real braincase all morning.
What did you just call me, buttsnack?
-Uh, uh... Nothing? Jim? Jim? -[grunts]
[Toby] Ow!
[gasps] Distract me from the pain. Tell me again. I have a Warhammer?
And you're a duke.
Ha! And I thought I had a big imagination.
Look, Jimbo, we're nobodies, but that's okay.
It's not imagin... [gasps]
Yes! I can prove it! Tobes. Tobes, come here.
[grunts]
-Where'd it go? [sighs] -You wanted to show me a pile of rocks.
No, Tobes, the Amulet. It was right here.
[sighs] Maybe someone else was chosen.
Well, Jim, this has been memorable.
And since somebody forgot my lunch today, I'm going home to eat.
-I'll see you tomorrow. -[sighs]
[sighs]
It's a mundane life, but at least you are alive, eh?
-You could've helped me out. -Oh, they can't hear me. Only you can.
Besides, what would I have said?
Talking ball of light says, "Listen to the boy.
He once possessed a magic Amulet"?
But then who has the Amulet now?
Oh, that is the Trollhunter's concern.
Remember, you are just Jim Lake, Jr. You're getting a second chance.
Enjoy it. It may surprise you.
[alarm blaring]
[sighs]
[speaking Spanish]
Muy bien, Mr. Lake. A-plus.
Spectacular!
Wake up! Don't want to sleep through your big day!
-Mom's special birthday pancakes! -[chuckles]
[inaudible]
-[giggles] -[chuckles]
I will kiss thy lips.
Ha!
[inhales, exhales]
[Draal] If my destiny is to not hold the sword...
perhaps it is to teach you how to properly wield it.
Mimic my movements, Trollhunter.
[grunting]
[grunts]
[sighs]
-[exhales] -[bell tolling]
[gasps]
Killahead Bridge.
[Strickler] You're sure he hasn't told anyone?
[Nomura] Trust me, I know him.
He's stubborn. He works alone.
Good. Then all we do is lay the bait
-and Gunmar will be free. -[gasps]
Oh, no. Gunmar.
[grunts]
Perhaps you should consider reading my books instead of eating them.
-[Jim] Blinky! -Hm? [yells]
-Hmm. -A human! Be gone, fleshbag!
Or... Or else my sizable friend here will eat you!
-Aaarrrgghh!!!'s a pacifist. -Pacifist.
How did you know that?
Unkar sent me back in time to give me a second chance.
Unkar? [laughs] That's impossible!
No troll, even a spirit, holds the power to change fate itself!
Fate changed, okay? And now I need to find the Trollhunter.
They're building Killahead Bridge!
Killahead?
Um, actually, we believe you, young human.
[groans] Finally. Thank you.
Aaarrrgghh!!!, go find the Trollhunter, Draal.
Draal is the Trollhunter?
-And have him bring... a gaggletack. -[gasps]
-You think I'm a changeling? -Quick, restrain him!
-He's escaping! Quick! -[Aaarrrgghh!!!] He's got moves.
Indeed. Clearly, his evil masters have trained him well.
[grunts]
Why can't I find anyone who believes me? Strickler!
Goodbye, Arcadia Oaks High. Consider this my resignation.
Strickler, we need to talk!
Jim! These aren't my normal office hours.
-I believe you mean "Mr." Strickler. -I know, Strickler. I know your secret.
I know everything.
[chuckles] And what would "everything" entail?
The Killahead Bridge.
Killa-what?
-[clears throat] -I know you're a changeling.
What? [snarls]
[both grunting]
I know you want to release Gunmar
so changelings will gain the respect they deserve,
but you're wrong.
It doesn't happen that way.
You'll always be an impure to him.
[both grunting]
How did you...?
-How do you know all this? -I know it because I was the Trollhunter.
[gasps]
I've lived this, but I messed everything up.
And now, I'm stuck in the past, and believe it or not,
you and I work together to put an end to Gunmar once and for all.
[grunts]
[pants]
[gasps]
A human Trollhunter? This would change everything.
But why on earth would I ally with a Trollhun--?
[electricity buzzes]
-You believe me, then. [grunts] -[explosion]
It doesn't matter now. I fear it's too late.
The invasion has begun.
We need to get to the museum.
[alarms blaring]
Why do you want to go to the museum? There's nothing but death there.
That's where the Amulet is.
-If it started this, it can undo this. -[phone ring tone] I am Gun Robot.
-Tobes! -It's true! Everything you said is true!
-What the heck is going on? -Die!
-Ay-yi-yi! [grunts] -[laughs]
-[Jim] Find Claire, get somewhere safe. -Claire?
[Gladys] Come here! Now for the main course!
Tobes! Toby!
[radio announcer] I repeat, this is not a prank.
There have been strange animal attacks all over town.
People are advised to stay indoor--
Oh, no. Donny! Shut the-- They're coming!
-[clattering] -[man on radio screaming]
Let's get to that museum.
[engine revving]
-[siren wailing] -[grunts]
So, if you are from another future, what happens to me?
[sighs] Mom!
I'm eaten, aren't I? By that savage brute, Bular!
-[phone rings] -Mom!
-Jim! Where are you? -Mom, I'm okay! I'm with Mr. Strickler.
[Barbara] I don't know what's going on. I'm coming to you. Tell me where you...
Mom, you need to get somewhere safe. Lock the wards.
[man on radio] Stay inside.
-[grunts] -[tires screech]
[Barbara] Listen...
-I need you to be safe. -[man on radio] Code Black.
-Initiating lockdown. -Honey, I love you.
-I love you too. -[exploding]
-[gasps] Mom? Mom! -[dial tone sounding]
They've hit the cell towers. We're almost there.
[tires screech]
-[grunts] -[gasps]
[tires screech]
Impure.
[gasps]
Get outta here! Get outta here!
You'd better be right, Trollhunter. There's no--
[screams]
[Jim coughs, grunts]
Gunmar.
After all you've done, Stricklander, you would flee in our hour of triumph?
Gunmar, Your Dark Excellence. You are out.
I so wanted to be there, but... uh, I had papers to grade.
-[growls] -Bular...
So, that's how it is.
Go. Get out of here. They want me, not you.
I can help you fight them.
It's too late.
Get to the museum!
[both growling]
[grunting]
[pants]
[Steve] Palchuk! Palchuk! Palchuk!
Come at me, mouth-breathers! Palchuk never dies.
Palchuk never--
Oh, yeah? You want a piece of this, too? [whooping]
[grunts]
Come along. We're missing all the fun. [chuckles]
[roaring and grunting]
Okay.
[gasps] Draal.
Oh, no.
[sighs]
Sorry.
[gasps]
The Amulet.
[breathes heavily]
[gasps]
No! No, no, no, no!
For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command.
Come on! For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command.
Please work! Please work!
For the glory of Merlin. Please!
For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command!
[rumbling]
Please.
Please!
Please! Unkar! Anyone!
I can't do this alone!
[sobbing] Please.
I'm the Trollhunter! [panting]
[grunts]
[sighs]
[sighs] I'm the Trollhunter.
I am the Trollhunter. I know I'm the Trollhunter.
[grunts]
I'm the Trollhunter...
Amulet or not.
[Unkar] If you walk out that door, you will die.
What choice do I have?
Oh, there's always a choice. Run away, save your skin.
That's not who I am.
Out there, they need a Trollhunter, and a Trollhunter fights till the end.
[Merlin] Ah, now you're getting it. My Amulet does not make mistakes.
Your Amulet?
[gasps]
Merlin?
You know, it is customary to kneel before a wizard.
You did this.
Gunmar is free,
Trollmarket is in peril,
and of all creatures in our worlds,
I chose you.
Now, show them why.
[growls]
[grunts]
[ticks, clicks]
[grunts]
[gasps]
[clears throat] Master Jim, is everything all right?
[pants]
-Are you okay? Did they rough you up? -No, Claire, I'm-- I'm okay!
We've come to escort you to the Tribunal.
They say if you're found guilty, you could die. Is that true?
He would walk free if he surrenders the Amulet.
What is your choice, Trollhunter?
Uh, the one where he doesn't die?
No. I'm keeping my Amulet.
Are you serious? That's what you want?
Yeah, Tobes. Never been more sure.
I'll face whatever comes my way.
-[gasps] -Jim...
So be it, Trollhunter.
Your trial awaits.
-[sniffles] -[groans]
