Ridley Jones

In a place full of mystery

Where the past comes alive

There's a hero of history

Who is ready to thrive!

She is saving our future

By protecting our past

She's a hero Whose moment's arriving at last!

Ridley Jones!

Daring and bold and courageous

Ridley Jones!

Guards the museum with pride

Ridley Jones!

Her sense of adventure's contagious

With dinos and dodos And astronaut chimps by her side

Ridley Jones!

Wearing her trademark fedora

Ridley Jones!

No challenge can get in her way

She won't ever give in to her fear

She shines when adventure is near

Swinging into the fray

And then saving the day

Ridley Jones!

Ridley Jones!

Bye-bye. Thank you for coming.

Mama, I noticed the Phoenix Ruby… it's gone!

Anything wrong?

What? Like, something-missing-wrong?

No! Mr Peabody, everything is perfectly… perfect.

Since he bought the museum, he's been wanting to fire you.

If you aren't running the museum we'd have--

Move. I know. Don't worry, Ridley. I'll find the necklace.

I can help. It'll be an adventure!

Dante hates it when you hang on his tail.

-Who is Dante? -Did I say Dante?

That's weird. And I can't think why I said that.

Hello? Who's there?

Just me. Lonny!

Security Guard of the Month, 42 months running!

Lonny, you're the museum's only security guard.

True. I got a couple stragglers for you, Ms Jones.

Sorry, we love it here. It's hard to get them to leave.

You're that kid who lives here, right? In the museum?

Yep. I know it seems cool, but can also be kinda boring.

You're not allowed to do anything…

I'm a dinosaur! Chomp! Chomp!

All I know is, it'd be way more fun if the dinosaurs really could talk.

You live in a treehouse inside a Children's Museum

and you don't have enough fun?

Okay, okay.

She's a natural.

The answer is no.

She's not old enough. She's not ready.

She's as ready as she needs to be. A journey doesn't start at the end.

Mama, I heard something.

I'm ready. I know I am.

There's a sense that I get As I walk through these halls

A feeling the relics That hang on the walls

Whisper "Destiny calls"

Like these silent exhibits Are somehow a part

Of some new adventure That's waiting to start!

I know in my heart I'm ready

Ready to find what is waiting in store

Yes, I'm ready

Ready to do something more

And although it sounds crazy I can't shake the feeling somehow

Every last exhibition says "Ridley, your moment is now"

My moment is now!

Now that I'm ready

Ready to find what is waiting for me

Yes, I'm ready

No matter what it might be

Yes, I'm ready

Ready for Mum to finally see

See that I'm ready

Ready for my destiny

I'm ready!

-Whoa! -Who turned off the fan?

I did.

How can I fake-fly without it?

That fan is the wind beneath my wings.

Sorry, I was looking for a missing necklace--

Wait, "fake-fly"? Who are you?

I think the far more important question is, who are you?

Why are we yelling?

I don't know! No, wait, yes, I do.

Because you're a museum dodo bird

who's supposed to be extinct!

Well, you don't have to get personal about it!

You have no idea how lonely it is to have an exhibit all to yourself.

And forget being extinct. You're talking!

You're not supposed to be talking!

Dudley!

You up?

No way! Dinos can talk!

Of course we can talk.

Watch the tail! Sorry.

My tail is always trying to sneak up on me.

Sweet to finally meet you. I'm Dante.

And that's Ralph. Say hi, Ralph!

I'm Ridley. And I'm talking to a dinosaur. And his tail.

You know it.

Watch out! Lemurs comin' through.

Thanks, mate. I'm takin' the little ones for a field trip to the Space Wing.

Come on, keep it moving.

Ismat, looks who's here!

O.M.Egypt! Ridley?

Warning… I might be mummy royalty, but I'm still a hugger!

Yes, you are!

Mummy hugs. Cool.

Wait, I've seen you in the mummy exhibit. But you've changed.

New outfit!

The clothes I have to wear during the day are so last dynasty.

Heya, I'm Peaches, first monkey to slip on a banana peel in space.

Houston, we have a problem… hearing you.

Sorry. Always forgetting I have this thing on.

Hey, I'm Peaches.

First monkey to slip on a banana peel in space!

Wow!

So you finally got called up to lead the herd.

She said she was ready.

You heard me?

Of course. You're a lot like your mummy, you know.

You know my mummy? My mum?

Of course we know your mum.

She's kinda in charge of this place.

I know. But I didn't know…

-About us? -Yeah.

You must feel like you landed on a strange planet.

It's kinda mind-blowing!

Dudley! You've ruined my fur!

Sorry, Fred.

It just makes me feel like a glorious winged eagle

soaring through the clouds.

Dodo birds can't fly.

Not with that attitude they can't!

Is Fred a she? Or a he?

-I don't know. They're just a Fred. -Cool.

Come on, we'll give you a tour.

Wait up! I can't actually fly… yet!

Hang ten, Mrs Sanchez!

I've been hanging for more like a solid twelve… hours, that is.

I have such a cramp in my tail!

The butterflies love to surf the tail.

This place is incredible!

Well, your mum and grandma

have always taken galactically great care of us.

My mum's in trouble. The Phoenix Ruby is gone.

If she doesn't find it, she could lose her job.

I want to help, but she doesn't think I'm ready.

Sometimes you have to tell people who you really are on the inside.

I just wish I could do more to-- Wait, what's that?

The necklace! I can help my mum.

Careful! Caribou get jumpy when you go into their exhibit.

You know what would be really bad? A stampede!

Stampede!

It's like they read my mind! See? If I can think it, I can be it!

I am an eagle. I am an eagle!

Dude, that was cretaceously close!

Stampede!

Wait. There's no back wall?

Not at night.

Are they going away or getting closer?

-Closer! -Brace for impact.

Stampede!

-Are you sure you're ready? -Huh?

Helmet. Forgot.

Ridley, are you sure you're ready?

Stampedes are serious business.

We don't want you to go the way of the dodo bird…

because we went extinct!

I feel your pain, dude.

Stampede!

-I'm ready. -I was hoping you'd say that.

You're cleared for takeoff.

Show 'em what you're made of.

But do it in style!

Now you're runway-ready!

Stampede!

Stampede!

-I can't watch! -I can't stop watching.

That's one giant leap for girlkind!

Hi! I'm Ridley. Nice to meet you.

Would love to chat, but gotta mosey.

Stampede.

Haa! I mean, hi. I mean, what are you doing?

Trying to get the necklace back.

-What necklace? -The one on your horns.

There's a necklace on my horns? Get it off!

If you stop stampeding, I could grab it.

The thing about a stampede is… you can't stop.

Stampede!

Ridley's in a load of trouble. We gotta help.

-Do we? -A good queen always protects her friends.

Who's with us?

We gotta orbit those caribou back into their exhibit.

Then they won't destroy anything…

else.

Stampede!

Stampede!
