[Eep] Fun was still a pretty new idea in the Croodaceous Era.
Not everybody got it yet.
It was only a few seasons ago that fun was the second-leading cause of death,
right behind being slow. - [creature roars]
But things changed when we got to Ahhh! Valley.
More people meant more safety, which meant more time for fun.
But some people still had questions.
Wait. Parents can have fun?
Yes, Thunk. We used to have fun all the time.
What changed?
[both] The weather.
But tonight, we're going out like we used to.
Just the two of us.
Uh, about that, bad news, hon.
The sitter fell through...
a very large Moler Bear hole.
[yelps]
- [screeching] - [screams]
We never get any time alone, Grug.
This was gonna be our big night out.
Who will watch the kids?
I guess we could bring the kids with us.
No, no, hearing those words out loud, no way.
Hey, I know. What if I watch Thunk and Sandy?
I mean, I'm pretty much a teenager now,
and teenagers are pretty much adults, so...
huh?
Well, she is getting older.
And if I don't get a night out, I may start screaming and never stop.
Okay. You're in charge, Eep.
Yes!
Eep? Why Eep? I should be in charge.
I kept this plant alive.
[Eep] One, that's a rock.
Two, with Mom and Dad gone, I'm the oldest,
and the oldest is always the wisest.
Okay. Then where is Gran?
[all] Gardening Club.
Club 'em all and let our stomachs sort 'em out!
[all grunt]
Okay, uh, for dinner, you can have left-unders,
the bugs I left under the rock.
Oh, and make sure Sandy's asleep by sundown.
We'll be back before the moon is up in the sky smiling at us.
Huh, the moon. I do not trust that guy.
But I do trust you, Eep.
I trust you to follow all my rules.
You don't leave the cave, don't have people over to the cave,
don't yell in the cave.
But do have fun.
Sure, if there's time. [chuckles]
You know, just as long as the cave doesn't come crashing down.
See, Thunk, this is what being in charge feels like.
Uh...
[gasps]
Sandy!
[panting]
♪ Bom-bom, bom-ba-dum ♪
♪ Ma-ma-ma-bom-ba-dum Ba-da-dum ♪
Oh, this is exciting.
We're actually going out.
As in, not in. [giggles]
I know. We never get any time alone as a couple.
Well, except when the kids accidentally trapped us under that rockslide.
[groans]
And even that was four seasons ago.
Besides, the kids are old enough now not to eat each other, so...
After you, my deadly huntress.
Oh, you. So sweet.
- [grunting] - [panting]
Huh. If oldest is wisest,
how come she already lost the youngest?
- Meanwhile, the middle-est... - [groans] Not now.
Where'd Sandy go?
We need to catch her before she runs into Mom or Dad or...
[gasps]
Pat?
No, no, no, no, no, no! Not Pat. Not Pat.
I want Pat to like me, not hate me.
You know, I don't get the big fuss about Pat.
Why does everyone think she's so cool?
Does she burp rainbows?
[belching]
Better. Pat's the girl who invented the eye roll.
What's the eye roll?
Eh.
[gasps] Whoa!
Powerful stuff.
I know.
Pat eye-rolled this girl for wearing the same pelt as her last week,
- and now that girl is... - Dead?
No.
Pat marked her as totally uncool.
Even predators don't want to be seen with her anymore.
Whoa. Worse than dead.
Well, hope she likes being bit by a baby.
- [gasps] - [grunts]
[yells]
[pants, yelps]
- [groans] - [sighs]
Hey, Pat. Fancy seeing you here.
-Nice spitting -Hey, Eep.
Eep's brother.
[gasps] You know my name!
Aw, and are you Eep's wittle sister?
[gasps]
[chuckles] We're not that close.
Anyway, sorry we interrupted your...
[gasps] What are you doing?
I'm heading out on a nighttime hunt.
Real dangerous.
Yeah, my mom doesn't care about child safety.
Pretty cool, huh?
[laughing] Yeah. Totally cool.
I wasn't asking. I know I'm cool.
But if you like, you can follow me, like, really far behind and cheer.
- [gasps] Me? - [snarling]
[sighs] But my parents say I'm not old enough to go out at night.
[chuckles] Really?
Here's what I think about that...
But they're out tonight, so I got my super fun cave to myself.
[chuckles] Yeah, I'm sort of having my own hunting party,
only without the hunting.
It's just... a party.
A party, huh?
Please don't roll your eyes.
Not bad, Eep.
Me, not bad? I mean... Yeah, I guess.
Yeah, you can come if you want.
It'll be just, like, the most fun time ever.
[groans]
[chuckles] Well, going hunting is fun, but it's not the most fun.
I'll try to stop by.
Whoo! Pat's coming over!
Uh, didn't Dad say don't have any people over?
I had no choice. She was gonna eye-roll me.
Besides, this is Pat.
If she has fun tonight, she'll think I'm cool.
[gasps] Maybe she'll even invite me to sit at the cool prey at lunch.
So I said, "Your fur is so last season."
[chuckles]
Take that, baby animal that tried to look cuter than me.
[all laugh]
But it turns out, the smell wasn't coming from my foot.
It was coming from...
- Not to be a party pooper... - [giggles, farts]
...but you are supposed to put Sandy to sleep by sundown.
[chuckles] As long as we block the exits, she'll tire out.
Just wait for it.
[snarling]
[panting, giggling]
[snores]
[sighs] She's out.
Now, Thunk, since I'm in charge,
I'm going to put you in charge of watching Sandy.
I get to be in charge of something?
Wow, is that a head rush!
This is important, Thunk.
You have to make sure Sandy stays asleep
because Pat and I will be busy having the best time of our young lives.
Don't worry, Eep. You picked the right man for the job.
I'll guard this baby like the back of my...
Thunk, that's a rock.
Just a practice run. Come on, Sandy.
Here, honey. To a fun night of just you and me.
Aw.
[groans]
When did all of these cave teens get here?
I mean, who leaves their kids unattended like this?
Now, honey, don't get lost in distractions.
Just get lost in my eyes.
[grunts]
No! My eyes! Ow, ow! Ow, ow, ow, ow!
Ow. Ow.
Okay, let's go.
I hope the kids' night is off to a better start than ours.
Ow! You don't think I'll fight a child?
Wrong!
Ow!
[knocking]
[Eep] Pat!
And not Pat.
Hey, Eep, brought my hunting party to your not-hunting party.
[sighs] People follow me everywhere.
It's my burden.
Oh! Well, when I said "party,"
I was thinking a party of two cool new friends, but, uh...
welcome to my party.
It'll be the most fun you never tell my parents about.
Hey, Eep, we heard you're having a party.
[whispering] I heard because I was standing outside your cave, watching you.
You know, like best friends do.
All right, but just stand off to the side and don't say anything, okay?
[chuckles]
My name isn't "Lerk" for nothing.
I got this, buddy.
[whispering] Eep, you're breaking Dad's rules.
This is why I should be in charge.
[whispering] No, Dad's main rule is survive,
and this is how I will survive going to school with Pat.
So, this is a party?
[chuckles] Um... yeah.
- Huh? - Yep.
Right.
Yeah. [chuckles]
This is awkward! [echoes]
Hey, who wants some chirping bugs?
- [Lerk] Me! - [excited chatter]
And drinks!
Ow! Ugh!
Hey, who spiked the drinks?
So, now we're just standing around with food and drinks.
[sighs] It's so quiet.
And quiet is so lame.
Uh, Lerk can make animal noises.
[chuckles] Really, it's no... Okay.
Can anyone guess this one?
[roars]
Anybody?
Come on, guys.
Okay, that was an Albatroceros... in heat!
Okay, that was a mistake. Uh, anyone else?
You like noise? My group and I make real noise.
We play the rocks.
You have a rock group?
[playing music]
♪ Noise, noise, noise, noise, noise ♪
♪ Loud, loud, loud, loud, loud ♪
♪ Louder, louder, louder ♪
[screams]
Finally, something loud enough to drown out my thoughts.
Ha!
Come on, Womp, get in there.
[panting] No, no, you're not ready.
Oh, trust yourself. Feel the music move through you.
No, stay. Stay here. Safe here.
- [screaming] - Wow, this is some great noise!
[cheering]
Sorry about the yelling, cave, but please don't tell Mom and Dad.
Hey, that sounds great and fun and loud.
- [muttering] - [gasps] Loud?
Too loud for the baby. Too loud for the baby!
[Thunk whimpers]
Shh.
Um...
♪ Hush, hush-a-bye Bloodthirsty baby ♪
♪ The prey are all sleeping So lay down your head ♪
♪ Wait till tomorrow For killing and gutting ♪
♪ For skinning your catch And for eating their brains ♪
[whispering] Good night.
- [sighs] - [grunts, growls]
Your seat, my lady.
Oh, you're such a gentle man.
Well, thanks, honey.
[chuckles] Uh, now, your favorite meal.
Oh, winged cheetah!
That's right.
Our best dinner for our best night.
Uh, once I catch it.
[panting]
I'm tiring him out.
[panting]
I could also go for Mosquitoad.
- Almost got it. - Great, hon.
Wait until I tell the kids. [yawns]
♪ Noise, noise, noise, noise Loud, loud, loud, loud ♪
[screams]
[cheering]
Thanks. I deserve it.
I call that one "Loud."
[chuckles] All right, is everyone having fun?
[all] Yeah!
You are? Whew!
I mean, that is good information.
[knocking]
Oh, uh, guys, hold that fun, while I get rid of these lame-os
who probably think we're partying too loud
and can't be my parents coming home early...
[chuckles] right?
[sighs]
Munk, I was afraid you were a real adult.
Nope. I was in the neighborhood and thought this would be a good time
to return the hunting rock I borrowed from your dad.
This isn't my dad's rock.
Oh, well, since I'm already here.
- Room for one more? - Uh, one more?
Oh, I can't count.
Yeah, I don't think...
Yay! More people to worship me.
You guys are so lucky.
I mean, come on in! Have a blast!
[sighs]
Okay, but if I see any of you lift a leg, you're out of here.
[whimpering]
I call this next one "Even Louder."
One, two, three, four.
[screeching]
Huh. [laughs] My party actually is fun.
[laughs]
And if you break Dad's rules and he's not there to see it,
are you really breaking Dad's rules at all?
[clearing throat]
What in the tar pits is going on here?
[gasps] Gran, I can explain.
You'd better.
The one time I go out, you actually do something fun!
I'm bringin' my date!
[whistles]
Hey, if he asks you, I'm your younger sister.
[cheering]
Whoa. That big, beastly hunk
just made a dance where people violently smash into walls.
What do you think we should call it, Mosh?
I don't know. The waltz?
- [growls] - [shouts]
Well, Eep, you said this party would be fun, and it is.
You're pretty cool.
You should sit with me at the cool prey at lunch.
Really? I'm cool? I'm cool?
I'm cool!
Uh, yeah, that's what I said.
Also, your place is about to cave in.
- [rumble] - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
[shrieking]
[Ugga] Oh, the Albatroceros mating dance.
[sighs] Isn't it romantic, Grug?
Not when you're stepping on my toes.
[chuckles] Sorry. Been a while.
Also, I think you might be doing the female part.
Uh, I'm doing what I always did.
Well, it's sending the wrong signals.
That guy looks really into me.
Run, run, run.
[shrieking]
[all chanting] Fruit, fruit, fruit, fruit, fruit, fruit!
- [rumbling] - Fruit, fruit, fruit, fruit, fruit, fruit!
[grunts, groans]
Hey, guys, I've got an idea.
This party is getting too fun,
so how about we take it down a notch?
[groans] There's gotta be a way to get their attention.
Yoo-hoo!
People, come on! You're making me act like my dad.
Whoa. I don't know what it is,
but this light makes my dancing look great.
[chuckles] And just look at Munk.
[groans] My body is dancing and I don't like it.
Guys, please, we've got to take this outside, okay?
You don't got to go home, but you can't destroy here.
[laughs]
Look at Eep!
[rumbling]
Maybe Thunk should be in charge.
[panting]
So... much... for... one... night... alone.
[panting] You think we lost him?
For now, but I am irresistible, so we don't have long.
Oh, Grug, tonight was supposed to be fun,
but it's been whatever the opposite of that is.
Well, according to our kids, the opposite of fun is us.
[sighs]
I love going out alone with you, Ugga.
But really, I love doing just about anything with you,
so long as it doesn't involve horned death birds.
[both giggle]
Kiss me, you big softy.
[screeching]
You know what? Close enough.
Run!
[whispering] Who's a good babysitter?
- [grunts] - I am. Yes, I am.
Yes, I...
[growling softly]
[cooing]
[whispering] One, two...
number after two.
[grunts]
No! [gasps]
[whispering] No!
[music playing]
Cool! Free bears!
Uh...
I thought you were taking care of Sandy, Thunk.
And I thought you were only having one person over, Eep.
Let's not argue in front of the baby.
[groans] I'm doomed!
Mom and Dad will be home any minute.
All I wanted was for Pat not to eye-roll me.
Then it worked. Way to go.
But it wasn't worth it. [groans]
A party without the hunting? What was I thinking?
Yeah.
At least hunting parties end,
usually when a scarier predator shows up.
[gasps] That's it!
Wait. Wait, Eep. What are you doing?
Time to poop the party.
Hey, Pat?
Huh?
[gasps]
[growling]
[shrieks]
- [all gasp] - [growling]
Sorry, Pat. Am I still cool?
[screams]
[yelps]
So much for sitting at the cool prey at lunch.
[sighs]
Please aim that away from me.
[growling, snarling]
[all scream]
Wow! Great bash, kid.
You really are my granddaughter.
[grunts]
What? So I lied about my age. Get over it.
[all screaming]
[gasping, screaming]
[snarling]
- [snores] - [sighs] There.
I killed my own party and my chances of being popular,
but the cave is still standing.
- Can I go to sleep now? - Knock yourself out.
[snoring]
[sighs] At least Mom and Dad weren't here to see this.
[Grug] So...
how was your night?
It was fun.
Almost too much fun.
- Did Sandy give you any trouble? - Not at all.
Oh, sounds perfect. That's how I know you're making it up.
[moans]
Oh, your father's just teasing, Eep. We are so proud of you. Right, Grug?
Of course we are, kiddo.
I mean, after all, the cave's still standing, right? [laughs]
[gasps]
I can explain!
I'm in trouble.
[Eep] Needless to say, I was grounded.
Hope you learned your lesson, Eep. See you later!
Wait. Where are you going?
Taking another shot at a night out.
- Thunk, you're in charge. - Ooh!
Thunk...
is actually the right call.
Aw, thanks, Eep.
[gasps] Sandy! My baby!
Let go!
Don't look back. Don't look back!
