[man over radio] Hello, anyone out there?
Command, this is Alpha-One-Zero.
Yeah, can I get two large supreme,
hold the anchovies?
Mmm-hmm.
[humming]
I'm giving Ben's class a VI
by the VID of the museum today.
That's a "very important tour"
by a "very important dad." [chuckles]
Of the museum, that is. [chuckles]
So I might finish
a little later than usual, honey.
Okay. Yeah, sure, Bill.
When When should I come get you?
-[radio beeps]
-[man over radio] Hey, Bill,
-what time's the pickup today?
-Around 2:00.
Hmm. No, I'm sorry.
I can't do 2:00, honey.
I'll be baking.
Could you do a little later?
-[radio beeps]
-[man over radio] Let's make it 3:00.
And, uh, don't call me honey.
Okay, honey. I mean, sweet
Uh, I think
there's some confusion going on.
-Uh, let's stick to the original plan.
-[man over radio] Roger that.
[Bernadette] Uh, okay.
See you after lunch then.
Uh, did you kids get any of that?
Mommy said she's gotta bake
two honey dinosaur cakes for lunch.
Where'd you hear that, Ella?
Ooh, there must have been
a little bit of confusion.
What do you mean, Grandma?
Oh, she must have heard it
Through the grapevine ♪
[gasps]
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind! ♪
How'd you hear it through a vine, Grandma?
No, Ella, it means, like,
when you hear something indiscreetly.
I mean, indirectly--
It means, uh, gossip, little one.
Yeah, no time for that now.
Don't want to be late for that VI
at the museum. Right, kids?
[Ben and Ella] Mmm-hmm.
-[Ben] Whoa!
-[Mickey] Danny D Dinosaur, in the flesh!
Well, the bone.
He does look, um, kinda hungry.
Yeah, you would, too,
if you hadn't eaten in 66 million years.
[all laugh]
[man over radio]
Bill, we need you in Taxidermy.
Roger that.
I'll get you that taxi journey.
Hey, I'll be back soon.
Wait here for the class, okay, kids?
Oh, whoa, come on!
Oh, no, no, no!
Almost got it! No, no, no!
-Whoa!
-Oh, hey, careful, Ella. Dad needs those.
[man 1 over radio] Uh, just confirming.
The T-Rex is going today?
-[all] Huh?
-[man 2 over radio] Confirmed.
He'll be gone by 2:00.
[gasps] They're taking Danny away?
[Angie] Oh!
We have to hide him.
Um Uh
Ah!
And I know just the place.
Okay, class, gather 'round.
We're going to have Mr. Love
give us a tour of the museum today.
-[children gasp]
-[Bill] Whoa!
This isn't just any tour.
It's also very informative.
[chuckles] Ready, kids?
[kids] Huh?
Mickey, you go with the class
to, um, slow them down.
Roger that.
All right. Come on, kids. I'm ready.
ABC, easy as one, two, three!
Cool. So, how do we get him in there?
-[Ben] Hmm.
-[Ella] I can help!
Yay! Whoo-hoo!
-[all] Huh?
-Ella, no!
[Angie] Don't help!
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
[Ben] Huh?
[all sigh in relief]
-[growling]
-[Ben] Huh?
[Dancing Machine] Run!
[all] Oh!
[roaring]
[all screaming]
And this Egyptian pyramid was found
in Greece, America.
-[radio beeps]
-Yo, anyone there?
[Ben, Ella and Angie screaming over radio]
[Ben] He's alive!
[panting]
[chuckles nervously]
-[kids] Huh?

[all shuddering]
[Danny growling]
Hmm?
Jacinta, is that you?
Oh, my goodness, what happened?
You have lost so much weight.
Whoa! Whoa! Is that me?
I look like my own dinner. [crying]
[continues crying]
Uh, are you okay, Danny?
Do I look okay?
I can't even remember the last time I ate.
Oh, it was 60 million years ago.
Sixty What What?
Over here
is the world's first umbrella stand.
It's so old that umbrellas
weren't even invented yet.
So, it's, uh It's empty.
Ben, everything okay?
[Ben] We're fine. False alarm.
They should be here
to pick up the T-Rex soon.
Let's go check it out.
Guys, hide that thing fast.
We're coming your way!
Uh-oh, we gotta move.
Danny, we have to hide you.
Okay, Mr. Bossy. Can I eat first?
No, we have to go now.
People are coming
to take you away forever.
How do you tiny creatures
know such big secrets?
I bet you're wondering how I knew ♪
About your plans to make me blue ♪
Losing you would end my life, you see ♪
'Cause you mean that much to me ♪

There you are. We were just on our way

-Mmm-hmm?
-Roar.
[laughs] Okay.
And here he is
Isn't.
I could have swore I left him here.
Clipboard says
there should be a T-Rex here.
Clipboard does not lie, Bill.
So, where is it?
We just need to keep this covert
Uh, stealth Hush-hush.
-[alarm ringing]
-[all gasp]
Whoa! Whoa!
That is one stealthy alarm.
[Mickey over radio]
Guys, what is going on over there?
The museum's on lockdown
until they find Danny.
[boy 1] Yay! Come on!
[girl] Awesome!
-[boy 2] Yeah! Come on!
-[boy 3] Yeah!
Oh, I've been looking for this everywhere.
I'm sorry about all this.
It must be some kind of mix up.
It's not like an ancient dinosaur skeleton
just got up and walked off.
Well, of course not.
That's impossible.
I'm sure someone's collected it
for cleaning already
-and they just forgot to tell us.
-Hold up!
For cleaning?
Correct. We're giving the dinosaur
a routine clean.
Once Bill locates it.
Whoa!
Guys, they're only taking Danny away
to give him a wash.
-What?
-But I'm not dirty.
Whoa! Uh!
We have to put him back. Uh, somehow.
That's it. We can put him back
one piece at a time.
Dancing Machine,
we're gonna need your help.
Me?
Yes, I would like to report
a missing [chuckles] uh, dinosaur.
-[indistinct chatter over phone]
-Uh-huh.
Mmm-hmm.
Sixty million years old, but I mean,
he looks great for his age.
Oh, he's tall, uh, thin, kinda bony.
Uh, strong jaw. Uh, hello?
They hung up on me.
Huh?
Told you, clipboard doesn't lie.
Maybe it's already been cleaned?
Well, how about that?
Tick that off your clipboard.
Uh, where have you been?
I said I'd be outside after lunch.
Oh. [chuckles]
I I thought you had to bake
two dinosaur honey cakes.
What? Two di Who told you that?
I, uh, heard it through the grapevine.
Never mind.
Come on, kids, it's time to go home.
