Playmobil: The Movie

Once upon a time, there was an 18-year-old human,

uh...

Oh, come on, Marla, just... just be normal. Just be normal.

There comes a time in every young person's life...

Not "person." That sounds too formal.

Girl. No, not girl.

Woman.

There comes a time in every young woman's life

when she has to make a decision.

Okay, um...

Look, Mom and Dad,

obviously I want to go to college,

education is the most important thing in the world, but...

after 12 years of school,

think about how valuable it will be for me

to actually experience the world.

As Amelia Earhart once said:

"Adventure is worthwhile in itself."

Which is why...

I got...

...this!

What's in your pocket?

What? Nothing.

If you don't tell me,

I'll tell Mom you gave me ice cream for dinner.

Wow! Blackmail.

- Impressive, but illegal. - Not when you're six.

Alright, you have to promise not to tell

Mom and Dad until I've told them.

Pinky swear?

Pinky swear.

- Do you know what this is? - A really small notebook?

It's a passport. It lets you go anywhere in the world.

I've saved up all my work money and I'm gonna backpack everywhere.

And then I'll go to college. It's just...

I don't know, Mom and Dad make everything so easy for us, you know?

Sometimes, you gotta test yourself.

But you take lots of tests.

No, not those kind of tests. Real-life tests.

Where you go everywhere,

and do everything, and see what you're really made of.

I get to be an explorer. A "never before her."

A crosser of borders.

- Like Lewis or Clark. - Who?

Life lesson number 321, Charlie.

Nothing worse than a small, stationary life.

Dullsville!

Meet all new people eat street food,

dance flamenco, bolero and tango!

Wow!

Oh, and we're gonna go on some big adventures together, Charlie.

Promise?

I am!

And I wanna go with you, more than anyone!

That's our arena. We'll pretend to fight for freedom!

I swear!

And maybe we'll discover the eighth world wonder!

Oh, the Roman warriors and ogres have surrounded Charlie the Brave!

Ta-ta-ta-ta! Who's that?

Could it be... Marla, the noble knight? Hi-yah!

Stay away from my brother!

Is it time for the super...

...duo slingshot?!

Whoa...!

Hi-yah! Ha!

Catch me, Charlie, catch me! We saved the day!

Viking and knight!

Viking and knight! Viking and knight!

Viking and knight! Viking and knight!

Hey, Charlie, don't open the door!

Alright, I'm coming!

Marla Brenner?

Yes.

I'm sorry, but there's been an accident.

Could we please come inside and speak with you?

Your parents were in a car accident...

Marla, you're not listening to me!

Charlie, I am listening to you, but the answer is still no!

So you're bailing on me again? Fine. Then I'll just go with Danny.

Ha! To the city? I don't think so.

You always do this!

Hey! I am trying to run a household here.

That doesn't mean we can't have any fun!

Yeah, well, sometimes, there are more important things than fun.

- This sucks! - Language!

And don't you dare...

...slam the door.

Good!

That went great!

Charlie, dinner's ready.

Come on. Bud, let's talk.

Charlie!

Sorry.

Oh, hey, Danny. Uh... Yeah, I'm on my way now.

Sorry. Uh, not too long.

Yeah, can you hold on a minute?

Danny? Yeah, my sister was totally cool with it.

Uh... yeah, I'm close.

I think, like, 10 minutes.

Make that 20.

Come on, Charlie, pick up the phone!

Midtown?! Argh! Are you kidding me?!

Hey, whoa! Lady! You can't go in there.

Trust me, mister, I am not here for the Gateway to Fun.

My little brother is in there, I have to find him

so I can tell him he's grounded till he's 18.

- Yeah, okay, let's go. - Thank you!

No, I said let's go, you know, together. She's gonna make me run!

Whoa.

Charlie?

This is so awesome!

Charlie? Charlie!

- Marla! - What were you thinking?!

- How did you find me? - You scared me half to death.

I'm sorry, but you won't believe this! You have to check this out!

- Charlie, we're leaving. - No! Wait! Marla!

It's all lined up exactly like we had it.

There's the Coliseum and all the knights.

Remember? What are... what are the chances?

Look, any minute now, a rent-a-cop is gonna come

through that curtain and arrest us for trespassing.

Come on! Look around!

It's like we're meant to be here.

Meant to be here? That's ridiculous.

- What is wrong with you? - Excuse me?

You used to talk about adventures and seeing the world.

"Nothing's worse than a small, stationary life?"

But I grew up, Charlie.

And I learned the hard way that life is not an adventure.

It's full of disappointments and it's not the way you want it to be.

That's just how you made it

because you don't do anything, you won't let me do anything!

It's like ever since Mom and Dad died...

Don't, Charlie.

...you died.

And now we're just pretending to be a family.

Well, then, I guess you're just stuck with dead old me.

Come on, let's go.

No!

Wait. There's even a spot here... for my Viking!

No, there's not, Charlie!

This is not for us! This is a toy!

It's a stupid toy, and none of this means anything!

I think something bad's happening.

Or something good.

Whoa!

- No. - It's magic!

Marla, look!

- Look. - No, no...

Whoa!

Charlie!

Oh... my...

No! Charlie, don't!

Whoa!

Oh...! Son of a...

Whoa! Ow! Ah! Oof!

Ah!

Whoa-oh-oh! Ow!

Ah!

Huh. Oh.

Ah... huh?

Huh? Huh?

- Whoa! - Charlie?

- What the...? - I'm coming! Hang on!

Whoa! Oh! Okay, Marla!

Left, right, left...

Whoa! Oh!

- Charlie? - Wha...

- Ah! - Ah... wow.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Easy, tough guy. Just looking for my brother.

That tickles! Stop!

Marla, it's me.

- Oh... huh? - You look weird. Where are we?

- Oh... - What's going on?

- Charlie?! - Yeah, Marla.

You're not... you.

I know! I feel different!

Yeah... you look different.

You have a... a beard!

Ha! I do!

- And tattoos! - Tattoos?!

Cool.

- What's happening?! - The lighthouse!
