[theme music playing]
[swords clinking]
[thunder rumbling]
[music ends]
[frogs croaking]
[bird shrieks]
Hey, look!
-[Sprig] Woolly mantises! -[roaring]
[all] Whoa, whoa, whoa! [Polly screams]
[all grunt]
[chirps]
Welcome to the Amphibian Arctic, everyone!
[all] Whoa!
I triangulated the tracking beam from the green stone,
and...
[Polly] Hop Pop, move!
Oh! [chuckles] Sorry.
The second temple must be right through there.
[wind whistling]
[Anne] Just beyond these snowy gates,
a grueling, perilous temple awaits.
Um, no, it doesn't.
[wind whistling]
Hmm. Weird.
Could it be invisible?
All the ancient texts about this temple were super vague.
They just mentioned the word "heart" a lot.
Okay. Are we looking for something heart-shaped?
Maybe we have to rip someone's heart out.
[Hop Pop, Polly] Hmm? Hmm?
-[bird caws] -[screams]
Hey, wait! I know that crazy bird.
[caws] Bird!
[Sprig] "Valeriana"?
Anne, didn't we meet her in the Bizarre Bazaar?
Yeah! Oh, and she said she's been all over Amphibia, right?
Maybe she's seen the temple.
[grunts] Why is she always out to lunch?
[Valeriana] Because it's the most important meal of the day!
[all gasp]
It's been a while, creature.
What brings you here? Do you by chance...
seek a temple to charge an ancient stone?
Oh, yes! You know about the stones?
Indeed.
But do you really think you are worthy?
Well... yeah! Totally!
We shall see.
Oh, I'm Marcy, btdubs. Uh, nice to meet you.
And I'm Hop Pop. Uh, hi.
Polly here.
Sure.
I am the last of an ancient order.
Our purpose was to study the sacred stones and temples.
Ooh!
So, you know where the temple is?
Indeed.
And you possess the music box?
Sure do.
After all these years, it has returned.
I should very much like to hold it.
Uh, I'd rather hold on to it.
Suit yourself.
To get to the temple,
we must climb the freezing cliffs of Mount Mutu.
Leave your flimsy jackets and wear these caterpillar-wool coats instead.
Ooh!
So fuzzy!
Since this temple is my responsibility,
you all must do exactly as I say.
Or else you can say goodbye to ever finding it.
Are we clear?
-[all] Clear! -Clear and comfy.
Good. Follow me.
Something's not right about this lady.
Huh? Didn't you see how she looked at the music box?
Plus, she owns a parrot. Only bad guys own parrots.
That's ridiculous, Anne.
Now, come on, or they'll leave us behind!
[groans]
[Valeriana] Quickly, you three!
I'd like to reach the temple in this century.
How could adventurers so lazy ever expect to conquer the temple?
[groans] Don't listen to her, guys.
We're almost there.
[whistling]
[wind howling]
[shrieks]
[all scream] Get away! Get away!
Oh, relax, everyone. It's just a cardinal.
They don't eat frogs. She's just saying "hello"!
[squeaks] [screams]
[gasps] Marcy!
[screams] [grunts]
[bird caws] [screams]
You said it doesn't eat frogs!
I-I was sure that-- Wait!
Cardinals eat caterpillars. It wants our coats!
[screaming]
[screams] No! We need these coats to stay warm.
And look good! Marcy! What do we do?
Let me think! Let me think! There's no time!
[grunts] [bird caws]
Now let's get outta here!
[all grunting]
You saved us, Anne! Here, take my coat.
No! You frogs will turn into ice without protection.
I'll be okay as long as we reach the temple soon.
It won't be soon!
You think it wise that you abandoned your coat?
Well, I had to do something.
Impulsive and defensive!
Very unworthy qualities, I must say.
Don't worry, Anne. We'll huddle around you for warmth.
[squeaks]
[grunting]
Hop Pop, did you gain weight?
It's impolite to ask, Anne.
It's so fortunate that the music box
fell into such average hands.
How exactly did it come into your possession?
Uh... Uh-uh.
You know? I don't remember how we got it.
[rumbling]
Huh... What was that?
Nothing much. Just an avalanche.
[all] What? Everybody run!
Shush, you loud little frog baby!
[rumbling]
Whew. Looks like it's heading away from us.
[Anne] Wait a second. Look!
What about that little hut? It looks like someone's inside.
We have to save them!
How? By running towards an avalanche?
They are lost, child. I say we press on.
[groans]
Nuts to that!
[all] Anne!
[grunts] Hey! You guys gotta get outta-- Huh?
How is everyone out to lunch right now?
-[rumbling] -[grunting]
Anne! We gotcha!
[grunting]
You okay? [pants] I'm fine. I'm fine.
Let's just hurry and get to the temple.
[Valeriana] Oh, that won't be happening.
I've learned all I need to know about you lot.
Disobedient, foolish, impulsive.
None of these qualities are worthy of the sacred stones.
You don't deserve my help.
Good luck finding that temple on your own.
You are full of such frog spit!
[all gasp]
Oh, come on. You barely even gave us a chance!
Not only that, now you're gonna strand us out here?
Well, we may be unworthy, but you and your order are even worse!
You're nothing but a cruel, judgmental, snob!
[echoes]
Brat!
You dare insult the order I have dedicated my entire life to?
Yeah? What're you gonna do about it?
Huh?
Did you guys see that?
Huh? Whoa!
Where are we?
What did you do?
Just show me and my friends where the temple is already.
Never. You are not worthy.
In fact, none are worthy!
And now that I finally have you alone,
I can return the box to its rightful guardian...
me!
Huh? [squawks]
Hey, wait! No!
No! I need that to get home!
[Valeriana] Aha! See?
Still only thinking of yourself!
You're wrong! I'm not...
that selfish. [Valeriana] Oh, no?
Didn't you lie to the Plantars to get out of a day of work?
[panting] How-- How do you know that? Whoa!
Didn't you drive the family snail even though you were told not to?
[grunts] Okay. This is getting weird. What else do you know?
I know that you snore.
Could've kept that one to yourself.
-Whoa! -[laughs]
Didn't you steal Hopediah's wallet for a girls' day on the town?
[grunting]
Okay. That is definitely not how that happened.
But you did steal the music box. Did you not?
I... I... I did steal it.
So it is. You are a liar and a thief!
And now, the box will be mine!
[laughs]
[screams, grunts]
[laughing]
Why are you laughing?
You can't get back down the mountain without me.
Ha! You have to save me.
Don't I just wave the stick up and down to get back?
You weren't supposed to figure that out! [screams]
[grunts]
[grunts, sighs]
[sighs] You risked your life to save me?
But why?
You were right. I did lie and steal.
If that makes me unworthy, fine.
Those bad choices were mine and I'll own them.
But making them taught me that it's always better to do the right thing.
So that's what I did, regardless of how much I didn't want to.
We have been waiting for someone like you for such a long time.
Um... excuse me?
Whoa, mama. You clean up nice.
You have sacrificed your warmth for your friends,
your safety for a stranger in need.
You even risked your life for an enemy.
But empathy alone isn't enough, for what is heart without responsibility?
In the name of the temple,
I declare you worthy.
Wait! No way! So the cardinal, the avalanche--
-All this was-- -A trial.
You see, we've been making our way through the "temple" this whole time.
And I have been testing you.
[squawks] Testing you!
[clears throat] So, what is it you want?
Oh, right. To charge the stone and return home!
So be it!
[grunts]
[beeping]
It's a lot slower than last time.
Sorry. This thing's pretty old.
Ah! No, no, no. I get it. No problem.
Do you want, uh, something to read or...
Seriously, it's fine. [Plantars screaming]
Oh, no! They're in trouble. What if it's another avalanche?
Uh, that looks charged enough. Let's go!
Send me back! Send me back! Send me back! Send me back!
[wind howling]
Send me back! Oh!
[screaming] Hang on, guys!
I got you! Huh?
Anne!
Marcy is showing us ridiculously cute animal videos on her phone.
We looked for you, but now we're taking a break.
Anne, you're all right.
And that's not all, fam.
Wha-pow!
[all] Ooh! Whoo!
But how? I'll explain later.
But for now, can we please get out of this cold?
[laughs] Yeah!
Way to go, Anne! Way to go!
[Polly] Anne!
Maybe Frobo can make us hot chocolate when we get back.
-Ooh! -[Polly] Yay!
-[Sprig] Yes! -[Anne] That sounds great.
[frogs croaking]
[leaves rustling] [footsteps approaching]
[chattering]
So, the disgraced Captain Grime called this council meeting?
Does anyone have any idea why?
Maybe he wants to be surrounded by friends when he gets arrested.
What do you think, Aldo?
[popping]
Uh, is he asleep or dead?
Definitely smells dead.
[all laughing]
Not exactly a welcoming crowd.
Especially that Captain Beatrix! What's her problem?
Her problem is that she's my sister.
And I may have teased her quite a bit when we were tadpoles.
What? Get out!
That's it! Stick a fork in us. We're done.
Enough loser talk. We can do this.
Just remember what we practiced and keep your eye on the prize.
Ooh! That reminds me...
I have one last touch for our outfits.
Now we really are a team.
One eye. I see what you did there. Nice one, Perce!
Now, come on everyone.
Let's get out there
and impress some toads... or we die!
[all] Whoo!
Dang it, Beatrix. What's your brother waiting for?
[thud]
[drumroll]
[pop music playing]
[all gasp]
[groans, grunts]
[grunts]
[clears throat] My fellow toads.
For years, we have kept the kingdom's servants in line.
But are we not just servants ourselves?
I propose a future where toads overthrow King Andrias,
and take our rightful place as rulers of all Amphibia!
Psst. Drop the mic. Oh! Uh, right!
[feedback]
[crickets chirping]
You all took a huge risk coming here
to gain support for your rebellion.
And it paid off. We frogging loved it!
[cheering] Ow! Ow!
Nicely done, Grimothy.
No way. Is your real name--
You're not talking about this!
So tell us, tell us, who's leading this revolution?
I was thinking... us?
[whispering]
Yeah, I don't think so.
We love your vision, but no toad is going to follow
the command of a fugitive and his hummus.
Humans. We're called humans.
Bufo's right.
Just because King Andrias
is working with a couple of hummuses,
doesn't mean us toads will go for it.
Wait, other humans? They must be talking about Anne and Marcy.
I don't believe it. They're working together without me?
And apparently aiding the crown.
Speaking of which, this whole thing is beginning to sound too risky.
Guards! Arrest them! [grunting]
[screams] Sasha, no!
[screaming] [grunting]
[grunts]
Listen here, you buffoon.
What's it gonna take to prove that you should follow us?
[growling]
Barrel's Warhammer!
Barrel's Hammer? You've finally gone senile, Aldo.
Yeah, that's a suicide mission.
It is said that the one who wields this hammer is the true leader of all Toads.
It is the one thing,
the only thing that will prove we should follow you.
Great! Done!
You'll have it in your Crypt-keeper hands by morning.
[both gasp, laugh]
No toad has ever gone after the Hammer and made it back alive.
This I've gotta see.
So, what's this hammer, and why are y'all so scared of it?
A little late to be asking, don't you think?
It's the weapon of the legendary toad warrior, Barrel the Brave!
Barrel gave his life defending a helpless village from a terrifying beast.
Legend has it that this same beast guards his hammer to this very day.
Enough whimpering! We don't even know if this tadpole tale is real.
Listen, if things get too wild out here,
just give me a signal and I'll call the whole thing off.
A signal? What kind of signal?
Hmm. How about this? Do your best kawaii pose.
It's something we do for photos in my world. Like this.
-What's a photo? -Just try it.
[laughs] No giggling!
We're here.
[screeching]
Hey, Sash.
Thanks for that. I feel better already.
Hey, my pleasure.
And don't forget, just strike a pose and we'll leave.
According to the map Aldo gave us,
we should be close to where the Hammer was last seen.
This is insane.
Even if it exists, we'll never find it.
Found it!
I don't believe it. It's real. [laughs]
Our ticket to revolution!
And no beast in sight!
Could life actually be this easy for a change?
Quick, Grime-sy! Yank that thing out already.
[straining, sighs]
[straining] A little help here.
Okay, gang. On three.
One, two, three.
[all straining]
The [stammers] beast!
Look alive! Who knows where it'll come from--
[all screaming]
[gasps]
[grunting]
[roaring]
[laughs] What a great way to go!
[roaring continues]
Sorry, guys, but we're way too close to bail.
I am not going back empty-handed.
But... You said...
Steer us closer. We need to get it to attack us.
[both] What? Trust me!
[Grime strains]
[grunting] [clinking]
[growls]
All right, now we've got its attention.
Get ready.
Three, two, one, now!
[both scream, grunt]
[both] Whoa!
[grunting]
-[grunts, strains] -[screams]
Ah, man. That was my mom's boat.
[grunts, strains]
[all straining]
[groans] This thing's never coming loose.
[grunting]
[growls]
[all screaming]
[both screaming, grunting]
[screaming]
What do you think you're doing?
What's it look like? I'm getting the Warhammer back to the tower.
You're insane and I love it.
[both screaming]
Last Toad Summit was all about improvements to Toad armor durability.
This year, the R & D team gives you armor customization.
[all cheer] Ooh, that ducky looks nice.
-Whoo, yeah. -[monster growls]
Hey, Greg, what do you think that is?
Hmm, that's clearly a narwhal-worm, being ridden by a hummus.
Heading straight for us.
[both screaming]
[growls]
Sasha... please... stop this!
But we're almost there.
[gasps] The tower! It's coming up too fast.
We're going to crash into it.
Go left! Go left!
[gasps, grunts]
[growls, whistle blows]
[strains] I can't! I've lost control of it!
[both grunting]
There must be another way to stop it.
The Warhammer.
It's the only weapon big enough to dent this thing's armor.
[both straining]
[sighs] It's no use.
Sasha, we've got to get out of here or we'll all die.
No, I can do this. I am not gonna fail.
Not while Anne and Marcy are getting by without me.
[groans]
[straining]
Ha! [groans]
-Whoa! -[Grime grunts]
[both screaming]
[grunts]
[both screaming]
[Grime grunts]
[growls]
[both screaming]
[all gasp] Huh?
One Warhammer, as promised.
[all exclaim]
[all cheer]
We hereby grant you the support of all three towers for your rebellion.
Yes! Yes, yes, yes, yes!
Well, Lieutenant, I had my doubts, but we did it.
Of course, we did.
After all, we're the best team in this or any other world.
Right, Braddock? Percy?
[both scream]
Whoa, you guys okay?
"Okay?" Sasha we almost died back there.
We trusted you.
And you didn't care one bit about what happened to us
as long as you got what you wanted.
That's not true. Besides, we did it.
No, Sasha, you did it.
And I think me and Braddock are done with this. With all of it.
What? Where are you going?
Guys, come back. You're not actually gonna throw this all away, are you?
We are so close. I can feel it.
Goodbye, Sash. We hope you pull it off. We really do.
That's enough, Lieutenant.
Get out of my way, Grime.
Just let them go, Sasha.
We all have our limits. It looks like they finally hit theirs.
-But-- -I know it hurts.
But remember, every dream has its price,
and not everyone's willing to pay it.
Now come on, soldier. We've got a world to conquer.
Goodbye, Percy. Goodbye, Braddock.
[snoring]
