Editing Littlefoot's Adventures of A Bug's Life/Transcript (section)

==Flik, Littlefoot, and Friends Flight Home/Celebration==
Francis: Your Majesty, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages, our troupe here guarantees a performance like no other! Why, when your grasshopper friends get here, we are gonna knock them dead!

(Ants cheer)

The Queen: Honey, relax. You should be proud of yourself. Your instincts on that boy were right on the money.  

(Atta chuckles)

The Queen: And to make our official welcome complete... Mr. Soil?

Mr. Soil: Yes, Your Highness?

The Queen: He's our resident thespian. Last year he played the lead in Picnic.

Mr. Soil: The children, and myself, have quickly put together a little presentation in honor of our guests. Dot, Reed, Daisy, Grub?

Gypsy: Aren't they adorable! They're cute!

(Flik waves over to Dot, Dot waves him back)

Grub: The South Tunnel Elementary School second-grade class would like to present you with this, a mural we have drawn of you bugs helping us fight the grasshoppers away.

Ash Ketchum: Oooh!

(Everyone else including The Circus Trope gasped)

Rosie: Oh, look at the beautiful colors of the blood.

Dot: We drew one of you dying because our teacher said it would be more dramatic.

Rosie and Circus Troupe: (gasps) (They turned over to Heimlich)

Heimlich: (whimpers)

Mr. Soil: I tell you a tale of heroes so bold, who vanquished our grasshopper enemies of old.

Ant Boy #1: Look, the last leaf has fallen.

Ants In Grasshopper Costumes: We are the grasshoppers! Where's our food?!

Ant Boy #2: Who will come to save us poor ants?

Ants In Warriors Costumes: We are the warriors, here to defend you!

(The Scene transitions later on as Slim covers Heimlich's eyes)

Ant Kid: I die! Die! Die! (He then plays dead)

(Francis then faints at the sight, Tuck and Roll laughed)

Mr. Soil: Thank you, thank you! Oh, thank you!

Tuck: Hey, hey, hey!

Francis: I say we go.

The Queen: Okay, honey. You're up.

Princess Atta: (Clears Throat) We're all very, very grateful to have...

[Flik crafts a megaphone and hands it over to Atta]

Flik: Here, here.

Princess Atta: (amplified) ...The warriors--

Ants: (laughing)

Princess Atta: Thanks. First of all, I'd like to thank the warriors for helping us in our fight against the grasshoppers. Secondly, I would like to thank Flik... (Flik waves) ...For his forthright thinking--

Flik: (amplified) Thank you, Your Highness. Sure, I'd like to take credit for all of this, but, well, that wouldn't be right. Because it was you, Princess Atta. You believed in me and you sent me on my quest.

Slim: You tell that ant that we need to talk to him right now.

Rosie: Okay, okay. All right.

Flik: Now, I know that I've made a lot of mistakes in the past. And I hope that this will make up...

Rosie: Flik!

Flik: Not right now, Rosie. I'm making a speech. Now, I truly believe that these bugs are the answer to our...

Rosie: (whispers)

Flik: (quietly) No, there's no circus around here. So, I... (gasps for second and turns around)

(Flik looks over to the troupe, who perform a quick juggling routine and pose. The camera zooms through the crowd of ants onto Flik, whose eyes contract in horror.)

Flik: (whimpers) Your Highness, the warriors have called for a secret meeting to plan for a circus-- Circumventing the oncoming hordes, so they can trapeze-- TRAP them with ease!

Princess Atta: Shouldn't I come, too?

Flik: No! (laughs nervously) Sorry, no, you see, it's classified in the DMZ. Gotta go A.S.A.P. You know, strictly B.Y.O.B. Bye! Sorry. Sorry I have to take the warriors away so early, but, you know, they have a lot to get done, with the battle looming and all. So, please, everyone, enjoy the party.

Princess Atta: B.Y.O.B?

Flik: Thanks again. Bye. Bye-bye. Okay, just... Just... Just get in there. Go! Go, go, go! (goes through the grass where they're hiding) CIRCUS BUGS?! How can you be circus bugs?!
