The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature

You might think life is easy

for a cute little squirrel with a fluffy fail,

but it's not.

Sure, when kids see you in the park, they go, “Aww!.”

Aww!

If you're lucky, they give you nuts.

If you're unlucky, they are nuts.

(SCREAMING)

Being the little guy means everything's out to get you.

Bikes... (GROANING)

Cars... (HONKING)

Gum... Ugh.

Ugh! Whoa!

But things got a whole lot better last summer

when the Nut Shop went out o! Business,

and left a lifetime supply of food in the basement.

Fur once, the little guy at the bottom of the food chain

came out on top.

Cannonball!

You da man, Surly.

Ha-ha! Thank you. Thank you.

I call that one "The Peanut Buster,"

patent pending.

Excellent. A very tight tuck.

And a high degree of difficulty.

I prefer a cleaner entry.

A little loo much flare.

Whoa, nice. 10.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I gotta get back to slacking off.

Looking good, Surly. Yeah, whoo-hoo!

Hey, Bruce, remember to pace yourself.

Why would I wanna do that'?

Playing with your food? Nice.

Look out!

Oh! Slow down or someone's gonna get hurt.

Yes. Wheel Yee-haw!

Ahh! Precious, come on. That's disgusting. We talked about this.

No lick-licks.

Ah, sorry, boss.

It's hard to respect your personal space

when you taste like peanut butter.

There's a peanut butter machine right there.

No way. Peanut butter.

Come on, Daddy needs a new pair of shoes.

What do you need shoes for? You're a wild animal. (GRUNTS)

Come on, snake eyes.

One peanut-colada, coming right up.

Keep 'em coming, Morty.

All right. Clear a path. Mixed nuts coming through.

Stuff your face until it's pink.

How many peanuts can you drink'?

One. Two. Three. Four.

Get your popcorn here. Hot, fresh popcorn.

The fun never stops with the corn that pops.

Popcorn here. Get your popcorn.

No fair. Mine didn't pop. (PIPE RUMBLING)

That was awesome!

This is the life, Buddy, huh?

Kickin' back, literally doing nothing.

Remember when we had to work for these things?

Come on, Dad. Hurry up.

Careful, sweetheart. Not too fast.

There it is.

With a little hard work and determination,

that nut will be ours.

Uh, Andie, why don't we just get free nuts

from the Nut Shop like everyone else?

Does anybody else think that's a good idea?

Uh, yeah. Yeah, I do. ALL: Oh! Oh! Oh!

Yeah. No. It's a terrible idea.

Oh.

Come on, guys.

We're wild animals. Living off the Nut Shop is unnatural.

But their products are 100% organic.

Now, who thinks we should go get that nut?

Guys.

This is when you're supposed to put your hands up.

Right. Okay, Andie. Okay. ALL: Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

That's better. Now, pay attention

because this will be on the test.

Remember, the nut is your friend.

It's been waiting its whole life for this.

Place your hands at 10:00 and 2:00

and gently pull.

Gently pull. Ahh!

Uh, Andie? Will this be on the test?

Please hold all questions

until the end of the demonstration. (GRUNTS)

The Nut Shop's

looking better and better. Mmm-hmm.

See, class? Hard work always pays off.

(GASPS)

Ooh! (GROANING)

Ahh! CHIPMUNKS: Ooh!

See? That wasn't so bad.

Now we can squirrel that nut away for the winter.

Who wants to go to the Nut Shop'?

Nut Shop rules!

Johnny's got the early lead, but Jimmy's close behind.

Official eating contest rules are in full effect.

Any regurgitory reversals

will result in disqualification.

Yay! (HISSING)

Whoo-hoo! Yeah. (WHOOPING)

Here come the nuts.

Attaboy, Johnny. Show those nuts who's boss.

Are you joking? An eating contest?

What? It's good for morale.

Surly! Hold that cranky response.

I got you something.

A Brazil nut? Yeah.

It's, uh, exotic.

I, uh, thought you might like, uh...

That's really sweet. I...

I can't believe you saved it for me.

But, you know, I...

I won't take food from the Nut Shop.

Well, that was supposed to play out differently.

Eat. Eat. Eat. Eat.

Living off the Nut Shop was okay in the beginning,

but look at what it's become.

And Jimmy tries to take the lead

with his patented hammerhead technique.

What a tremendous athlete.

Classic.

This is not what animals do.

We work hard, we store, we save.

Look at all of you. Lazy and spoiled and fat.

Who you callin' fat? (SCOFFS)

Come back to the park, Surly.

It's where we belong.

That's my favorite thing about being mayor.

You get to sign your own permits.

Hear, hear.

Every square inch of this city is generating profits.

How else could we skim enough off the top to build ourselves

that private golf course? (GASPS)

Am I right, people?

Fore!

But I've got a thorn in my side.

One part of this city puts nothing in my pocket.

Liberty Park. Nothing but grass and trees

sitting on premium city real estate.

Generates zero profit,

and I can't very well charge children to climb trees, now can I?

I'll look into it, sir. A dollar a climb?

No need.

I got bigger plans than trees.

Andie, come back.

Come on, what's with you? Why are you so mad'?

The animals are losing their instincts.

They're not gathering or storing anything for winter,

and they're not working together.

Take it easy.

That's all anybody does around here.

Take it easy.

(SINGING) For she's a jofly good eater! For she's a jolly good eater!

What's wrong with easy?

Easy doesn't build character.

Easy doesn't last.

That's ridiculous.

Look at 'em. Working together, building character.

Morale is at an all-time high.

You gotta get with the program, Andie.

It's a house of cards, Surly, and it's only a matter of time

till it comes crashing down. Relax.

It's not like the Nut Shop's gonna explode.

Oh, no! The peanut butter machine was in there.

Oh, I can still taste you on my lips.

No. Oh, dear.

Mole, you had one job.

What was that again?

Shut off the boiler, so it doesn't explode.

It's not my fault. I told Jimmy to do it.

I told Johnny to do it.

I told Jamie to do it.

And I told Mole to do it.

Oh, right. It is my fault.

What are we going to do, Surly?

Yeah. What are we gonna do?

Where we gonna get food?

It's okay. It's okay. We'll be fine.

We'll just go back to scrounging and gathering

like nature intended.

This will be a good thing. What?

You think the Nut Shop blowing up is a good thing?
