Goosebumps

Hello?

Anyone there?

Ha, ha. Very funny.

"From Aunt Benna! Somewhere in the jungle of Baladora?"

Cool!

- -

Whoa!

- -

Let me out! Let me out!

- Mark? - Mom! It was chasing me!

It's alive! Alive!

Ed, I-- I-- I'd like you to meet Mark. My son.

Yeah.

So, you'll call me?

Mark!

Well, thank you very much.

The first guy I've met in the last year and a half who isn't a jerk,

and now he thinks I've got a crazy kid.

I'm not crazy, Mom. This thing was alive.

I saw it. Why won't you believe me?

Oh, honey, what I believe is...

is that you fell asleep with this thing in your hand,

and you dreamt the whole thing.

It didn't seem like a dream.

I'm surprised you don't have nightmares in here all the time.

Look at this place.

I didn't argue when you wanted a palm tree...

or a leopard skin rug.

But a red ant farm?

- - Things are-- They're gettin' out of hand, Mark.

- Mark? Are you listening to me? - Kalia!

Kalia! Kalia!

Mom! You killed me!

Don't tempt me.

And what's this "kalia"? It's not some foreign swear word, is it?

No, no. It's a word I made up.

It sort of makes me feel... stronger.

Well, how convenient.

And since you're feeling so strong,

maybe you won't mind "kalia-ing" up this place.

All of it.

- What? - You heard me.

I want all this jungle stuff out of here.

No more shrunken heads, no more masks, no tom-toms.

I don't even want to see a coconut in here unless it's sliced up in a fruit salad.

Is that clear? Is it?

- Yeah, Mom. - Good.

Now go to bed.

Thanks a lot.

- - Aunt Benna?

- Mark, answer the phone! - What?

Well, thank you very much. Hello? Hello!

Benna? I can hardly hear you.

Well, how is it going down there?

- Met any nice crocodiles lately? - I want to talk to her.

- - Yes. Yeah, he got it yesterday.

Honestly, Benna, a shrunken head?

Couldn't you have sent him a nice sweater or something?

Oh, all right. Hang on.

Keep it short. It's long distance.

Aunt Benna! Hi. Yeah, it's great. Thanks.

Uh-huh. Yeah. I just had the strangest dream about you.

Uh-huh. Yeah.

What! No way!

Mom! Aunt Benna wants me to come and visit her on the island of Baladora!

Cool, huh?

- Whoo! - Benna, what's going on?

Well, yeah. Of course he'd love it. I-I just don't think--

- - Two weeks?

You want me to send my son away from home...

to a jungle on the other side of the world for two whole weeks?

- When? - Yes!

- -

G.D. Flight 401 to Kathmandu...

is now ready for boarding at Gate Number 27.

- Sorry. -

Kalia. Kalia.

How'd you know that?

Mark! Hey, Mark!

How you doin'? I'm Jimmy.

- I'm your pilot. - Why do I need a pilot?

Camp's a whole day away by road. And it's too dangerous to drive anyway.

- So your plane's safer? - No.

But it's faster.

- You're from America, right? - Yeah.

- You live in Hollywood? - No.

- You live near Hollywood? - No.

- You ever been to Hollywood? - No.

Oh. I'm goin' to Hollywood.

- Really? - Uh-huh.

Gonna be a movie star. Listen.

I'll be back.

- Cool, huh? - Yeah, great.

- What's wrong? - Nothin' to worry about.

- Just a little engine trouble. -

- A little engine trouble? - Okay, big engine trouble.

- What are we gonna do? - Well, we got two choices.

One, we jump out, try to hit the water...

and hope the sharks don't get us before we swim ashore.

- What's the second choice? - We crash.

Kahar lahia.

Kalia?

Come on, baby! I know you can do it! I know you can!

- Kalia? - Who loves ya, baby?

I do. I love you. I love you!

Kalia!

Oh! Ha, ha! See? I told you there was nothin' to worry about.

Everything's under control.

Got some supplies here for the camp--

Some food, some medicine... and this.

- Very important. - What is it?

Licorice gum. Dr. Hawlings loves his licorice gum.

- Who's Dr. Hawlings? - My father, the mad scientist.

- Hey, Kareen, this is Mark, Benna's-- - Nephew. I know.

- Well, welcome to the jungle. - Thanks. Where's Aunt Benna?

- Did you remember my CD's? - The latest.

Yes, Jimmy. Thanks. You're a lifesaver.

Miss Hawlings ain't a big fan of jungle livin'.

- Really? - How would you like to spend...

a year of your life in the world's biggest salad?

Come on. See you next week, Jimmy.

- Thanks for the ride, Jimmy. - Be careful, Mark.

Have fun!
