1 00:00:49 All my life, I've lived and worked in the big city,
2 00:00:53 which, now that I think of it, is kind of a problem,
3 00:00:56 since I always feel uncomfortable around crowds.
4 00:01:00 I mean it. I have this fear of enclosed spaces.
5 00:01:02 I..I.. Everything makes me feel trapped all the time.
6 00:01:05 You know, I always tell myself there's gotta be something better out there.
7 00:01:09 But maybe l... maybe I think too much.
8 00:01:11 I-I-I think everything must go back to the fact...
9 00:01:14 that I had a very anxious childhood.
10 00:01:16 You know, my mother never had time for me.
11 00:01:20 When you're the middle child in a family of 5 million,
12 00:01:23 you don't get any attention.
13 00:01:25 I mean, how is it possible?
14 00:01:27 And-And I've always had these abandonment issues which plague me.
15 00:01:32 My father was-was basically a drone, like I've said.
16 00:01:35 And, you know, the guy flew away when I was just a larva.
17 00:01:38 And my job, don't get me started on, because it really annoys me.
18 00:01:44 I-I was not cut out to be a worker, I'll tell you right now.
19 00:01:47 I-I-I feel physically inadequate.
20 00:01:50 My whole life, I've never been able to lift...
21 00:01:53 more than 1O times my own body weight.
22 00:01:55 And, when you get down to it, handling dirt is, you know...
23 00:02:00 is not my idea of a rewarding career.
24 00:02:03 It's this whole gung ho, superorganism thing...
25 00:02:07 that... that, you know, I can't get.
26 00:02:09 I try, but I don't get it.
27 00:02:12 I mean... What is it? I'm supposed to do everything for the colony.
28 00:02:15 And-And what about my needs? What about me?
29 00:02:18 I've gotta believe there's someplace out there that's better than this.
30 00:02:21 Otherwise, I would just curl up in a larval position and weep.
31 00:02:26 The whole system makes me feel...
32 00:02:29 insignificant.
33 00:02:32 Excellent.
34 00:02:34 -You've made a real breakthrough. -I have?
35 00:02:36 Yes, Z. You are insignificant.
36 00:02:39 I am?
37 00:02:52 Ground floor.
38 00:03:20 Uh, worker.
39 00:03:25 Soldier.
40 00:03:27 Ooh.
41 00:03:29 -Uh-oh. -Worker.
42 00:03:40 Let's try it again.
43 00:03:42 Firm grip. Swing hard. Back straight. Concentrate.
44 00:03:47 Follow through.
45 00:04:15 Okay. I've got to keep a positive attitude.
46 00:04:17 A good attitude, even though I'm utterly insignificant.
47 00:04:22 I'm-I'm insignificant, um, but with attitude.
48 00:04:25 Oh, sorry, Z.
49 00:04:27 -I didn't see ya. -Great, Azteca.
50 00:04:30 It's working already. I'm so meaningless, I'm invisible.
51 00:04:36 Now, you're getting it.
52 00:04:38 After all, it's not about you.
53 00:04:42 It's about us... the team.
54 00:04:45 It's about... this.
55 00:04:49 Uh, a giant hole in the ground?
56 00:04:51 -Okay, people. Are we feeling good? -Yeah.
57 00:04:55 -Yeah. -Great.
58 00:04:57 Now, R-1734 through Z-7829, you guys are on wrecking ball.
59 00:05:02 -You got it. -Swell.
60 00:05:04 -You got it. -All right. Swing time.
61 00:05:06 -Let's get physical. -I love this job.
62 00:05:09 Now, remember, Azteca, "Be the ball."
63 00:05:11 That's the main thing. Now, remember that.
64 00:05:13 You know, gotta be one with the ball.
65 00:05:16 Would you cut it out already?
66 00:05:18 Jeez. I love my work. And you, well...
67 00:05:21 You think too much.
68 00:05:24 Come on, Z. Help us build a bigger, better colony.
69 00:05:28 And, for cryin' out loud, try to be happy about it.
70 00:05:31 Sure, you know. I mean, why-why...
71 00:05:33 How could I possibly be unhappy being a piece of construction equipment?
72 00:05:36 -Okay, workers, remember. -Here it comes.
73 00:05:38 Be the ball.
74 00:05:41 Let the energy flow through you.
75 00:05:47 Grin and bear it. This is... This is for the colony. Oh.
76 00:05:51 Ow. This is...
77 00:05:55 This is just a lawsuit waiting to happen.
78 00:05:57 -Hang on. Here we go. -Faster. Harder.
79 00:06:00 Did I happen to mention that heights make me nauseous?
80 00:06:03 No.
81 00:06:04 -This is a ball. -Hey.
82 00:06:17 -Oh, Z. -Yes. Yes. I understand.
83 00:06:20 I dropped the ball.
84 00:06:25 Workers. They're weak.
85 00:06:28 They lack discipline. They lack commitment.
86 00:06:31 General, I know there's been a glitch or two.
87 00:06:35 But everybody is working full tilt as it is, and...
88 00:06:39 You can't help it, it's your nature.
89 00:06:42 But in spite of your limitations,
90 00:06:44 you are going to finish this tunnel on schedule.
91 00:06:47 Come hell or high water.
92 00:06:49 Anyone who falls behind is going to have to explain themselves to Colonel Cutter.
93 00:06:54 And let me assure you, the colonel is not as understanding as I am.
94 00:06:58 Dismissed.
95 00:07:03 Four more days, Cutter. Four more days.
96 00:07:06 Then we can bid final farewell to their kind of incompetence.
97 00:07:10 Yes, sir.
98 00:07:11 A fresh start.
99 00:07:14 -Imagine it! -A strong colony, sir.
100 00:07:17 A colony we can be proud of.
101 00:07:19 Yes, but we're not there yet.
102 00:07:21 Cutter, we just got word that a termite army has mobilized against us.
103 00:07:26 Against us?
104 00:07:27 We'll have to send troops deep into hostile territory...
105 00:07:30 to attack their colony.
106 00:07:32 Attack a termite colony, sir?
107 00:07:34 -That's suicide. -Exactly.
108 00:07:36 -Do you have the list I asked for? -Yes, General.
109 00:07:41 These are the units loyal to the queen.
110 00:07:45 Hm. Then they're the ones we'll be sending.
111 00:07:49 It's a shame. There's some fine officers here.
112 00:07:52 Don't we need the queen's approval to declare war?
113 00:07:56 Our very next stop, Cutter.
114 00:08:00 General, we've been at peace with that colony for years.
115 00:08:04 -Why would they attack us? -They want our land.
116 00:08:07 They're desperate for more foraging territory.
117 00:08:09 Perhaps they think we've grown soft or weak.
118 00:08:12 Why don't we dispatch an ambassador, negotiate a new treaty?
119 00:08:17 -We don't need to send soldiers. -Believe me.
120 00:08:20 Every ant in this colony is so precious to me.
121 00:08:24 That's why we must strike now.
122 00:08:27 We have the element of surprise.
123 00:08:29 If the termite shock troops enter our colony, well...
124 00:08:32 Yes, General, I know what they can do to us.
125 00:08:39 -Very well. -You've made a wise decision.
126 00:08:42 In fact, you've insured the future of this colony.
127 00:08:47 Hello, General.
128 00:08:51 Princess Bala. What a nice surprise.
129 00:08:54 You look lovelier each time I see you.
130 00:08:57 Thanks. I hope you're not just here on business.
131 00:09:01 Oh, of course... of course not.
132 00:09:04 Because, um, it might be nice...
133 00:09:07 if we had a conversation once before we get married.
134 00:09:12 You're absolutely right.
135 00:09:14 Cutter, schedule some private time for me and Princess Bala.
136 00:09:16 Uh, in fact, sir, there is time right now for a personal moment.
137 00:09:20 We're a few seconds ahead of schedule.
138 00:09:23 Excellent. Princess.
139 00:09:25 Well, a few seconds isn't much,
140 00:09:29 but I guess if it's quality time...
141 00:09:33 So, how was your day?
142 00:09:36 -Anything interesting happen? -We declared war.
143 00:09:39 Declared war?
144 00:09:43 Boy, talk about a rough day.
145 00:09:45 Sir, I hate to interrupt, but time stands still for no ant.
146 00:09:49 Princess.
147 00:09:56 Mom, could you remind me, why am I marrying this guy?
148 00:10:01 Bala, do we have to argue about this again?
149 00:10:04 We don't seem to have anything in common. The guy's a stiff.
150 00:10:08 Yes, darling. I know the general may be...
151 00:10:10 a little gruff and somewhat overbearing at times,
152 00:10:15 but I know that he cares about you.
153 00:10:18 He's just not particularly good at showing it.
154 00:10:21 But you should've seen how persistently he asked for your hand in marriage.
155 00:10:25 But why me?
156 00:10:26 Because you're the one who has to continue my work.
157 00:10:29 It's your place, dear.
158 00:10:31 -What if I don't like my place? -Everyone has their place, Bala...
159 00:10:36 you, the soldiers, the workers.
160 00:10:40 Now, it's not all that bad being princess, is it?
161 00:10:42 Would you prefer to be carting around dirt all day?
162 00:10:46 Mother, don't be so dramatic.
163 00:10:49 At least, they seem to have some fun every now and then.
164 00:10:56 -Two aphid beers. -Why'd I have to be born a worker?
165 00:11:01 You soldiers get all the glory, plus you get to go out in the world.
166 00:11:04 You meet interesting insects, you get to kill them.
167 00:11:06 Yeah. But you get to spend all day with those...
168 00:11:10 beautiful worker girls.
169 00:11:13 Weaver, they're career girls. They're obsessed with digging.
170 00:11:17 I don't think I'm ever gonna meet the right girl for me.
171 00:11:21 Who said a girl for you? I was talking about a girl for me.
172 00:11:25 Don't you want your aphid beer?
173 00:11:27 Call me crazy, but...
174 00:11:29 I have a thing about drinking from the anus of another creature. Okay?
175 00:11:32 Suit yourself.
176 00:11:36 Ahhh. Me, I'm cuttin' loose.
177 00:11:38 We got royal inspection comin' up.
178 00:11:41 Inspection, meaning you're gonna stand around like an idiot...
179 00:11:43 while a bunch of blue bloods smirk at you.
180 00:11:46 I don't know how you put up with it, Weaver.
181 00:11:48 Z, I've known you for a long time. Right?
182 00:11:51 Definitely. You were born two seconds after me.
183 00:11:53 Yeah. And ever since we were little, I've been listenin' to you complain.
184 00:11:56 What are you bitching about?
185 00:11:58 In case you haven't noticed, we ants are running the show.
186 00:12:01 We're the lords of the Earth.
187 00:12:03 Hey. Don't talk to me about earth, okay?
188 00:12:05 'Cause I just spent all day hauling it around.
189 00:12:09 There's just gotta be a better place.
190 00:12:13 There is. I've been there.
191 00:12:17 I'm sor... I'm sorry. Were you talking to me?
192 00:12:19 There is a better place... Insectopia.
193 00:12:24 Oh, really. Lunatic at 3:OO.
194 00:12:28 You can't understand till you go there and see it yourself.
195 00:12:33 You can be your own ant there.
196 00:12:36 The streets are paved with food.
197 00:12:38 Nobody tellin' you what to do.
198 00:12:40 No wars. No colony.
199 00:12:45 -I shoulda never left. -Oh, yeah. Fascinating.
200 00:12:48 We were on a long-range recon. I got cut off from my unit.
201 00:12:52 Nothing like post-traumatic stress disorder to make your day complete.
202 00:12:56 -Then I saw it... Insectopia! -Hey!
203 00:12:59 You head towards the monolith.
204 00:13:01 Ten clicks past the great canyons to the land of red and white.
205 00:13:04 Hey, gramps. You've had enough for one night.
206 00:13:07 Come on. Before you get in trouble.
207 00:13:10 Head for the monolith. Listen to me!
208 00:13:12 The monolith!
209 00:13:15 That guy's got a screw loose.
210 00:13:17 Cross the lake! -Insectopia.
211 00:13:20 Wouldn't it be great if it were that easy?
212 00:13:22 -Yeah. Dream on, Z. -Cross the lake.
213 00:13:26 Look for the land of red and white.
214 00:13:29 Wow! This is so... gritty.
215 00:13:34 Ten minutes and we're out of here. Right? This place is off limits.
216 00:13:38 Just blame it on me. Say it was all my idea.
217 00:13:41 -It is all your idea. -Besides, no one's gonna recognize us.
218 00:13:46 Come on, girls. What do you say?
219 00:13:48 Let's take a walk on the wild side.
220 00:13:53 Okay, everybody. 6:15. Time to dance.
221 00:13:57 -Time to cut a rug, Z. -Oh, no. That's okay.
222 00:14:00 I'm gonna leave the rug just the way it is, Weaver.
223 00:14:15 Step back, ladies.
224 00:14:17 I'm gonna ask one of these workers to dance with me.
225 00:14:20 Oh.
226 00:14:24 What a bunch of losers.
227 00:14:26 Mindless zombies capitulating to an oppressive system.
228 00:14:30 -Hi. Want to dance? -Absolutely.
229 00:14:35 Follow me.
230 00:14:37 So, how come I haven't seen you around here before?
231 00:14:41 Oh, I don't get out much.
232 00:14:43 I, uh, I work over at the palace.
233 00:14:45 Oh, the palace, huh? I bet those royals really live it up.
234 00:14:48 Course they're all a little... you know... from inbreeding.
235 00:14:52 What?
236 00:14:57 Yowch!
237 00:15:00 Ya-Ya... Yowch! Yowch.
238 00:15:08 -Yowch. -What on earth are you doing?
239 00:15:11 Well, actually, to tell you the truth, I'm sort of making it up.
240 00:15:16 Really?
241 00:15:17 Why does everybody have to dance the same way?
242 00:15:19 That's completely boring. It's... It's monotonous.
243 00:15:22 It's no fun.
244 00:15:54 Hey. Watch your step, worker.
245 00:15:56 You watch yours, buddy, or you'll be in big trouble.
246 00:15:59 Th-Th-That's okay. I'll... I'm gonna let him off this time.
247 00:16:03 What? Are you crazy? This guy's built like a pebble.
248 00:16:06 Aren't you even gonna defend yourself?
249 00:16:08 Hey, buddy. Get back in place.
250 00:16:11 -Me? Uh... Uh... -What if he doesn't want to?
251 00:16:16 Yeah. What if I don't like my place?
252 00:16:19 -What's he talkin' about? -We got us a troublemaker.
253 00:16:20 Buckle up, Spanky.
254 00:16:22 This one goes out to all the lazy workers.
255 00:16:28 You ought to watch that aggressive behavior, buddy.
256 00:16:31 He's just a worker.
257 00:16:53 Princess Bala! Princess Bala! The guards are coming.
258 00:16:58 -Let's get outta here. -Wait.
259 00:17:03 Princess? You're a princess?
260 00:17:05 Uh, I gotta go.
261 00:17:08 -When can I see you again? -Let me think. Never.
262 00:17:13 -Bye. -No. Wait.
263 00:17:22 What a day it has been
264 00:17:24 What a rare mood I'm in
265 00:17:27 Why, it's almost like being in love
266 00:17:31 -There's a smile -Huh?
267 00:17:33 On my face for the whole insect race
268 00:17:37 Why, it's almost like being in love
269 00:18:10 -Can I get you another one, pal? -No, thanks.
270 00:18:13 -I think I'm gonna go. -Yeah. I don't blame you.
271 00:18:17 It's always slow in here the night before one of those royal reviews.
272 00:18:21 I guess the soldiers need their shut-eye before they meet the queen.
273 00:18:24 -I don't blame ya. -That's it!
274 00:18:27 You know, I was once... See ya.
275 00:18:37 Psst. Weaver.
276 00:18:40 I figured it out. Weaver. Weaver.
277 00:18:43 What? What?
278 00:18:45 --I got a great idea.
279 00:18:47 You gotta switch places with me. Let me go to the inspection instead of you.
280 00:18:50 -What time is it? -Weaver. The royal family will be there.
281 00:18:55 This is the only way I can see her.
282 00:18:57 -See who? -Princess Bala.
283 00:19:00 Are you nuts?
284 00:19:02 You want me to switch places with you?
285 00:19:05 Do you know how much trouble you can get into...
286 00:19:07 for even talkin' about impersonatin' a soldier?
287 00:19:10 You can get in trouble just for listenin'...
288 00:19:12 to someone talkin' about impersonatin' a soldier.
289 00:19:15 You have to help me.
290 00:19:17 If I can't see her again, my life is not worth living.
291 00:19:21 Pl-Pl-Please, Weaver. Please.
292 00:19:25 Switch jobs with me just for a day.
293 00:19:28 Th-Think of all the things that I've done for you.
294 00:19:31 Hm. I can't think of any.
295 00:19:33 Okay. So, think of all the things that I'm gonna do for you.
296 00:19:40 Would I meet some worker girls?
297 00:19:42 Are you kidding? They always go after the new guy.
298 00:19:45 It's like a sport for them.
299 00:19:47 And-And believe me, they will definitely go...
300 00:19:50 -for an adorable little insect like you. -Mmm.
301 00:19:53 Weaver, l... I have to see her again.
302 00:19:57 Z, what kind of chance do you have with a princess?
303 00:20:01 I mean, she probably won't even remember you.
304 00:20:05 l... I know it sounds nuts, but I have to try.
305 00:20:13 Oh, boy.
306 00:20:17 Princess, fancy meeting you here.
307 00:20:19 What do you say we lose this crowd?
308 00:20:23 Oh, me? You know, l... I wear many hats.
309 00:20:27 I guess you'd have to call me a Renaissance ant.
310 00:20:29 Eyes right!
311 00:20:35 -Beautiful! Just beautiful! -Mm.
312 00:20:40 -The precision. The order. -Oh.
313 00:20:43 Princess Bala! Princess Bala! Hey. It's me.
314 00:20:46 Remember Z from the bar?
315 00:20:48 Princess Bala! Princess Bala! Princess...
316 00:20:52 Bala, you must encourage the troops.
317 00:20:55 Wave.
318 00:20:57 Oh. She sees me. Excuse me, guys. l-l... Sorry.
319 00:21:01 I just got a better offer. Could you excu...
320 00:21:03 Company halt!
321 00:21:09 Princess. Princess Bala.
322 00:21:12 Quiet there! Get back in rank.
323 00:21:15 -You new, kid? -Oh, y-yes, but I'm gettin' out soon.
324 00:21:19 I got a trial membership.
325 00:21:21 Trial membership. That's a good one!
326 00:21:25 -Name's Barbatus. -Z.
327 00:21:28 -Right face! -Psst.
328 00:21:37 Sacrifice. To some, it is just a word.
329 00:21:43 To others, it is a code.
330 00:21:45 Jeez. I'm really bad at word games.
331 00:21:48 A soldier knows that the life of an individual ant doesn't matter.
332 00:21:52 What matters is the colony.
333 00:21:54 He's willing to live for the colony, to fight for the colony,
334 00:21:58 to die for the colony.
335 00:21:59 -This guy's crazy. -I hear ya.
336 00:22:03 At O8OO hours, we received word that the termite enemy has mobilized.
337 00:22:08 We have no choice but to launch a preemptive strike.
338 00:22:11 You are the queen's finest.
339 00:22:14 I know you will all do you duty.
340 00:22:17 I am proud to send you into battle.
341 00:22:20 Into... I'm sor-I'm sorry. Into battle?
342 00:22:23 -Dismissed. -Left face. Forward march.
343 00:22:27 You know, I think there's been a terrible mistake.
344 00:22:30 You know, the truth is I just... I just came for the speech.
345 00:22:33 Don't worry, kid. I'll watch out for ya.
346 00:22:42 -Sound off. -One! -Two!
347 00:22:45 -Sound off. -Three! -Huh?
348 00:22:47 -Sound off. -Five!
349 00:22:49 -Six! -Seven!
350 00:22:50 -Eight! -Nine!
351 00:22:51 -Ten! -Eleven!
352 00:22:52 -Twelve! -Thirteen!
353 00:22:55 We ants go marching one by one Hurrah, hurrah
354 00:22:59 We slaughter termites just for fun, hurrah, hurrah
355 00:23:04 So, these termites, they're-they-re...
356 00:23:06 These guys aren't gonna put up much of a fight? We're talkin' pushovers, right?
357 00:23:09 Not really, kid. They're five times our size.
358 00:23:12 And they shoot acid from their foreheads.
359 00:23:15 Hey. Keep it movin', shorty.
360 00:23:17 We ants go marching two by two Hurrah, hurrah
361 00:23:22 We'll all be dead before we're through Hurrah, hurrah
362 00:23:27 Say, what exactly does our platoon do?
363 00:23:29 I mean, will we be serving beverages or processing paperwork?
364 00:23:33 Our platoon has the best assignment... first into battle.
365 00:23:36 Huh?
366 00:23:37 We ants go marching three by three, hurrah, hurrah, hurrah, hurrah
367 00:23:43 We're off to face our destiny Hurrah, hurrah
368 00:23:48 Hey. Wait a minute. Let's not get... We're being too hasty here.
369 00:23:51 These... These guys sound like bruisers.
370 00:23:54 Just how were you figuring on beating them?
371 00:23:57 Superior numbers, kid. Overwhelm their defenses and kill their queen.
372 00:24:02 Hey, fellas. You're being a little extreme, I feel.
373 00:24:05 W-Why don't we try and influence their political process...
374 00:24:08 with campaign contributions?
375 00:24:10 I like you, kid. You got a sense of humor.
376 00:24:14 Forward!
377 00:24:15 Come on. Let's kick some termite butt.
378 00:24:18 Over the top!
379 00:24:21 Yeeow!
380 00:24:52 -Where is everyone? -Something's not right.
381 00:24:56 Don't be scared, kid.
382 00:25:06 Attack!
383 00:25:33 Come on.
384 00:25:49 Barbatus, you saved my life.
385 00:25:52 Ah, don't get all sappy about it.
386 00:26:02 Hey, guys. Look out behind you!
387 00:26:13 Hey... Hey, guys.
388 00:26:15 Can somebody help me here? Can anybody... Hey.
389 00:26:31 Yeah.
390 00:26:36 Okay, mama. Yeah.
391 00:26:41 Oh, yeah. Big guy comin' through.
392 00:26:47 I love it.
393 00:26:54 Hey. Hey. Hey. Take it easy, muscles.
394 00:26:58 You're makin' the rest of us look bad.
395 00:27:01 What happened to Z?
396 00:27:03 He's takin' a personal day, so I'm fillin' in.
397 00:27:07 You fill in any more, and you'll explode.
398 00:27:15 Eh, you got a problem?
399 00:27:17 No, uh... uh...
400 00:27:20 Nobody told me digging was so much fun.
401 00:27:22 You know, you pick the dirt up. You move it.
402 00:27:25 You pick it up again. You move it again. Lots of reps.
403 00:27:29 You exercise the arms and the thorax.
404 00:27:32 Yes, l... I see what you mean.
405 00:27:34 -Um. Yeah. That is fascinating. -Sorry, sir.
406 00:27:37 I was just havin' a chat with my friend, sir.
407 00:27:39 You know, I just had a chat with General Mandible.
408 00:27:44 Anybody who doesn't meet his quota is going to be downsized.
409 00:27:48 Come on. Cut him a break. He's new.
410 00:27:52 Hey. What do you say we help your attitude a little bit...
411 00:27:57 by taking away your rations for the day.
412 00:28:02 Thanks for your time.
413 00:28:05 I don't know what came over me.
414 00:28:07 Talking back like that.
415 00:28:10 I must be losin' it.
416 00:28:12 Sorry I got you in trouble.
417 00:28:14 But, listen, you can... share my rations. Whoa.
418 00:28:17 If you want.
419 00:28:19 -Are you askin' me out to dinner?
420 00:28:22 Oh, no. l...
421 00:28:25 Well, if you don't have anything else planned.
422 00:28:29 I'll check my calendar.
423 00:28:32 You know,
424 00:28:34 I'm kinda glad Z's takin' a breather.
425 00:29:09 Kid!
426 00:29:11 Kid, over here.
427 00:29:14 Barbatus.
428 00:29:16 Be honest, kid. Am I hurt bad?
429 00:29:20 N-No. N-Not at all. You're... Actually, you're lookin' terrific.
430 00:29:25 You got, you know, swell color in your cheeks.
431 00:29:29 No. I can see it in your eyes.
432 00:29:33 I'm a goner.
433 00:29:35 Help me up, Z.
434 00:29:39 I can't feel my legs.
435 00:29:44 You gotta hang in there, buddy. I know you're gonna make it.
436 00:29:48 Just take... take deep breaths.
437 00:29:51 Because I'm gonna try and find your body.
438 00:29:54 It's bound to be out there somewhere.
439 00:30:06 Barbatus, hang on.
440 00:30:10 -B-Barbatus. -Don't make my mistake, kid.
441 00:30:16 Don't follow orders your whole life.
442 00:30:19 Think for yourself.
443 00:30:26 Barbatus.
444 00:30:43 We're on schedule. Work is completed on "A" section, sir.
445 00:30:47 We're clearing a path through "D" section now.
446 00:30:50 We need to push harder, Cutter. I want double shifts around-the-clock.
447 00:30:53 We can't afford to let up. Is that clear?
448 00:30:55 -Crystal, sir. -Good.
449 00:30:57 -What about section... -Excuse me, sir.
450 00:31:00 This had better be important.
451 00:31:02 Well, it's about the termite battle, sir.
452 00:31:04 The enemy was destroyed, but it was a disaster for our troops, as well.
453 00:31:09 Well, that's terrible. Terrible.
454 00:31:12 There is good news, sir. One soldier did make it back.
455 00:31:16 -No kidding. -What did you say?
456 00:31:18 Word is spreading through the colony.
457 00:31:20 The queen requested a meeting with the war hero.
458 00:31:22 Damn! Good. Damn good.
459 00:31:26 Uh, I'll handle this.
460 00:31:31 Congratulations, soldier.
461 00:31:35 Well, you're a little short for a war hero, aren't you?
462 00:31:38 A war hero? Sir, I-I don't actually think that I'm a hero.
463 00:31:44 Good. I don't like heroes.
464 00:31:46 But, sir. You don't understand. l...
465 00:31:56 l... I didn't do anything.
466 00:31:59 I mean, it was all horrible. It was just a massacre.
467 00:32:03 A-A massacre upon a massacre.
468 00:32:05 That's good, soldier. Now, wave.
469 00:32:15 There was nothing you could do, Weaver.
470 00:32:18 You didn't know they were going to war.
471 00:32:20 I just feel horrible.
472 00:32:22 Poor Z. I should have never let him go.
473 00:32:27 Wait a minute. That's no soldier. That's Z!
474 00:32:31 Z? The little guy made it!
475 00:32:39 Let's go, soldier.
476 00:32:50 As I was saying, son, you are an ant after my own heart.
477 00:32:54 An ant that looks death in the face and laughs.
478 00:32:57 Well, actually, the truth is,
479 00:33:00 I-I generally just make belittling comments...
480 00:33:03 and snicker behind death's back.
481 00:33:06 General Mandible.
482 00:33:09 Keep your comments to yourself. Let me do the talking.
483 00:33:22 May I present Her Majesty the Queen.
484 00:33:26 Charmed. Charmed.
485 00:33:28 And the Royal Princess Bala.
486 00:33:31 Welcome home, soldier.
487 00:33:34 We cannot begin to express our gratitude for your heroic efforts.
488 00:33:38 The private has asked me to convey his most humble appreciation.
489 00:33:41 Please. Please. It was nothing really.
490 00:33:44 Just your average run-of-the-mill valor...
491 00:33:47 and extraordinary courageousness, you know.
492 00:33:50 In the heat of battle, there's very little time to think.
493 00:33:53 One must attack! Attack! Attack!
494 00:33:56 Well, indeed.
495 00:33:59 As you can see, Your Highness, the battlefield is still fresh in his mind.
496 00:34:02 So, begging your pardon, but this is the perfect time to debrief the private.
497 00:34:08 Oh, please, General. Not on our first date.
498 00:34:11 Not on our first date.
499 00:34:13 Haven't I seen you somewhere before?
500 00:34:16 Well, maybe. Then again, maybe not.
501 00:34:19 And then... then again.
502 00:34:21 -Yowch. -That's it! You're the guy from the bar.
503 00:34:26 -Don't... Shh. -Bar? What bar?
504 00:34:29 I danced with this guy at the bar the other night.
505 00:34:32 He was just a worker then.
506 00:34:34 -What were you doing at a bar? -Precisely what I want to know.
507 00:34:37 No. This isn't about me.
508 00:34:39 I mean, look at this worker. Look what he's done.
509 00:34:42 I think you're thinkin' of someone else. After all, I am a soldier.
510 00:34:46 Exactly. You were a worker.
511 00:34:49 But now, you're a war hero.
512 00:34:52 -He's a worker? -A worker danced with my fiancee?
513 00:34:56 F-Fiancee? W-W-Wait a minute.
514 00:35:00 This is not how it looks. I can explain this.
515 00:35:03 Hey. She was the one making all the moves.
516 00:35:06 Arrest him.
517 00:35:08 H-Hey wait a minute. Take it easy. Can't we discuss this?
518 00:35:10 What are you doing? Let go of my daughter.
519 00:35:13 He's taking her hostage!
520 00:35:15 No. No. I'm not. I mean, yes, I am.
521 00:35:19 One more step and then the princess gets it.
522 00:35:22 Let go of me!
523 00:35:24 Ow! Don't make me hurt her.
524 00:35:43 Oh.
525 00:35:45 What are you doing, you creep?
526 00:35:48 Are you out of your puny little mind?
527 00:35:51 There they are down there! Let's go. Move. Move. Move.
528 00:35:54 Oh, good.
529 00:35:56 Here they come to rescue me and kill you.
530 00:35:59 Kill?
531 00:36:00 -Hey, you guys. -Stop it. Stop it.
532 00:36:02 -What are you tryin' to do? -Get off me, you little twerp!
533 00:36:05 What do you want to do? Throw away everything we've got?
534 00:36:09 What're you waiting for?
535 00:36:11 Hello. Guys.
536 00:36:20 -Huh? -What is it?
537 00:36:26 It's beautiful.
538 00:36:29 Ridgeway, get out of there!
539 00:37:12 -Oh. Don't worry. I'm okay. -You?
540 00:37:16 You're okay? Hey. Who cares about you?
541 00:37:20 -I almost died here. -Will you please calm down?
542 00:37:22 You're not gonna let a little near-death experience ruin your mood, are you?
543 00:37:26 Hey. This is not a mood. You're not listening to me.
544 00:37:32 Where am I?
545 00:37:37 Look, what's-your-name. Just climb up that tree and find out where I am.
546 00:37:42 Look, t-the trick is not to panic.
547 00:37:45 You know, h-h-he w-who panics is lost.
548 00:37:48 What am I saying? We are lost.
549 00:38:02 I've been kidnapped by the village idiot.
550 00:38:05 Who's the bigger idiot,
551 00:38:06 the idiot or the idiot who gets kidnapped by the idiot?
552 00:38:09 What'd you do, talk those termites to death?
553 00:38:12 I can't believe you tried to pass yourself off as a soldier.
554 00:38:17 Why are you stalking me?
555 00:38:19 Don't you realize that I'm out of your league?
556 00:38:22 You're the one who was cruising the worker bar looking for a little action.
557 00:38:25 And you just happened to find it...
558 00:38:28 the swarthy, earthy, sensual worker.
559 00:38:32 Please. I was slumming it.
560 00:38:35 Don't you get it?
561 00:38:37 I chose you because you were the most pathetic little bug in the joint.
562 00:38:41 I was gonna let you become part of my most erotic fantasies.
563 00:38:45 But now, you can forget that.
564 00:38:48 Write it off, you know. I guess what you prefer is Old Blood and Guts.
565 00:38:53 This guy's idea of a romantic night out is two seats at a public execution.
566 00:38:57 Boy. You really chose the right husband.
567 00:39:00 For your information,
568 00:39:02 the general and I are deeply,
569 00:39:04 deeply in... engaged.
570 00:39:08 You come right back down here this instant.
571 00:39:12 We are marching straight back to the colony so that l...
572 00:39:21 The monolith!
573 00:39:24 Absolutely. Wonderful. That's an appealing offer.
574 00:39:27 But, considering the options, you go back. Okay?
575 00:39:29 'Cause I'm going to Insectopia.
576 00:39:31 Oh. Come on. Insectopia?
577 00:39:36 You're crazier than I thought.
578 00:39:38 Yeah. Well, I happen to have it on a very reliable source.
579 00:39:42 Or... Or should I say,
580 00:39:45 a drunk-raving source?
581 00:39:47 But the point is, I'm convinced the place definitely exists.
582 00:39:51 Stop! I order you to stop, worker!
583 00:39:56 Hey. I got a name. Okay? It's Z.
584 00:39:59 And out here, you can't order me around.
585 00:40:02 All right. Fine. No problem.
586 00:40:20 Worker! Worker! Where are you?
587 00:40:25 Z? Z? Wait for me.
588 00:40:29 No more excuses, General. I want my daughter back.
589 00:40:34 Frankly, I'm beginning to doubt your ability to handle this.
590 00:40:37 Believe me, Your Highness, we will spare no effort to bring her back.
591 00:40:41 Princess Bala is essential to all our plans for the future.
592 00:40:47 So he kills himself a hundred termites,
593 00:40:49 gets a few medals, then bada-bing, bada-bip, bags himself the princess.
594 00:40:54 He looks him dead in the eye...And says, "Bite me."
595 00:40:56 He said that to General Mandible?
596 00:40:58 Buddy. Hey, hey, buddy.
597 00:41:01 You heard about the war hero named Z?
598 00:41:04 Runs off with the princess, right?
599 00:41:06 When they sent the guards after him, he just looks at 'em and boom!
600 00:41:11 -They burst into flames. -Z? You talkin' about Z?
601 00:41:15 Hey, I know the guy. He's a friend of mine. I think your information...
602 00:41:18 You know Z? -Yeah.
603 00:41:21 He's a worker. He used to dig around here.
604 00:41:23 A worker? That's impossible. A worker can't do anything, except work.
605 00:41:27 Yeah. It's not like we got a choice.
606 00:41:29 We do have a choice. Uh, I mean, look at Z.
607 00:41:33 He decided he wanted something, and he went for it.
608 00:41:35 He's not alone. I used to be a soldier, and I switched places with him.
609 00:41:40 Wait a second. You're tellin' me... I don't have to be here?
610 00:41:43 We've got a choice?
611 00:41:46 The authorities don't want you to know,
612 00:41:48 but we don't have to work on the tunnel anymore.
613 00:41:50 It's the workers who control the means of production.
614 00:41:52 If Z don't dig, I don't dig.
615 00:41:54 People, what is this? An encounter group?
616 00:41:57 -Let's get back to work. -Why?
617 00:42:00 ...on the tunnel anymore! This guy, Z... he's leadin' the revolution!
618 00:42:05 I'll... get back to you.
619 00:42:16 Think about it, Z... two ants.
620 00:42:19 Who ever heard of two ants? Two million ants, maybe. But two?
621 00:42:26 Look, I'm hungry, I'm thirsty.
622 00:42:30 And this whole desert thing?
623 00:42:34 -It just doesn't work for me. -Yada, yada, yada.
624 00:42:36 I think it's about time for you to take me back.
625 00:42:39 Take yourself back.
626 00:42:42 Excuse me. You kidnapped me, remember?
627 00:42:46 That means you have certain responsibilities.
628 00:42:49 You can't just abandon me here in the wilderness.
629 00:42:52 Yeah, well, it's better than being back at the colony.
630 00:42:55 -You're not serious, are you? -Maybe you were living the high life,
631 00:42:58 but personally, this beats digging.
632 00:43:00 If you'd ever done a day's labor you'd know what I was talking about.
633 00:43:05 Labor? What do you know about labor?
634 00:43:08 How would you feel if you were expected to give birth...
635 00:43:11 every ten seconds for the rest of your life?
636 00:43:14 Gee.
637 00:43:16 Water!
638 00:43:22 Ahh. All you think about is yourself.
639 00:43:25 Yeah? Well, nobody else ever thought about me.
640 00:43:27 So as far as I'm concerned, I don't need anybody else.
641 00:43:31 Help! Help me, Bala!
642 00:43:37 Help! B-B-B-B-Bala!
643 00:43:42 Hold on. I'll get you out. Hold on.
644 00:43:44 Help, Ba...
645 00:44:07 -Thanks. -Don't mention it.
646 00:44:11 Now, maybe we can put this fantasy behind us...
647 00:44:15 and head back to the colon...
648 00:44:17 Oh, Z! What are you doing?
649 00:44:21 -We've gotta cross the lake. -Am I missing something here?
650 00:44:25 Didn't we just get out of the water?
651 00:44:29 Bala, look, what have you got to lose?
652 00:44:32 I mean, think about it. Do you really want to be Mrs. Raving Lunatic?
653 00:44:40 There's a better place.
654 00:44:44 Z, please.
655 00:44:46 Just... gimme one chance.
656 00:44:49 If we don't find Insectopia soon,
657 00:44:51 I promise I'll take you back to the colony.
658 00:45:10 I hope you know what you're doing.
659 00:45:12 Yeah, me too.
660 00:45:22 We want Z! We want Z!
661 00:45:25 People, come on.
662 00:45:28 I know some ants who aren't gonna make their quota.
663 00:45:30 Buzz off, pawn of the oppressor.
664 00:45:34 We want Z! We want Z!
665 00:45:39 Sorry, sir. I came as soon as I heard. I was debriefing the trackers.
666 00:45:43 -And? What's the report? -Well, this Z, sir...
667 00:45:47 He's one slippery character.
668 00:45:49 They lost Bala's trail at the edge of the lake.
669 00:45:52 The lake?
670 00:45:55 All we are saying
671 00:45:57 Is give Z a chance
672 00:46:01 What's that soldier doing there?
673 00:46:03 It appears he's holding hands, sir... with a worker.
674 00:46:08 I don't like the way things are going, Cutter.
675 00:46:11 I'm counting on you for results.
676 00:46:14 -Now, can I depend on you or not? -Yes, sir.
677 00:46:17 All right, then. Let's wrap this up.
678 00:46:19 We want Z! We want Z! We want Z!
679 00:46:24 I've heard a lot about this Z.
680 00:46:29 I even had the pleasure of meeting him once.
681 00:46:35 But where is he now?
682 00:46:37 Can anyone point him out?
683 00:46:41 I mean, if this Z cares so much about us,
684 00:46:45 then why isn't he here?
685 00:46:48 I'll tell you why. Because Z doesn't give a damn about us.
686 00:46:56 That's why he kidnapped our princess. That's why he ran away.
687 00:47:01 Z is no hero. We are the heroes.
688 00:47:05 We are the ones ensuring the future of our great colony.
689 00:47:09 And when we've completed this magnificent structure,
690 00:47:13 we will reap the benefits:
691 00:47:16 more food and less work for everyone.
692 00:47:21 And as further reward for your heroic efforts,
693 00:47:24 each and every one of you will get the day off,
694 00:47:28 so you can be the guests of honor at the MegaTunnel dedication ceremonies!
695 00:47:40 Mandible! Mandible!
696 00:47:42 Mandible! Mandible! Mandible! Mandible!
697 00:47:50 Now bring me that soldier.
698 00:48:33 Oh, my God! Z! Come here!
699 00:48:52 It's Insectopia!
700 00:48:58 You were right. It really is here.
701 00:49:13 -Huh? -All right. All right!
702 00:49:17 -You're a genius. -Let's eat. Mmph!
703 00:49:23 Huh.
704 00:49:31 Well? What's the problem?
705 00:49:34 There's some kind of force field.
706 00:49:40 Uh, excuse me. Excuse me. How do you get in?
707 00:49:47 Yes, well, I'm afraid this is a private function.
708 00:49:51 -Who are your friends, dear? -Crawling insects, poopsie.
709 00:49:56 Oh. The poor dears.
710 00:49:59 Uh, good morning.
711 00:50:02 -Huh? -Darling, really.
712 00:50:05 Greeting every insect that emerges out of the grass?
713 00:50:09 Pardon me. I guess you don't recognize me.
714 00:50:16 I've been traveling and I'm all... schlumpy.
715 00:50:21 I'm Princess Bala.
716 00:50:23 Oh! It's even worse. They're Eurotrash.
717 00:50:28 Darling, they're poor. They're dirty. They're smelly.
718 00:50:31 We have to help them.
719 00:50:34 If you'll just wait right here, we'll fetch you a little something.
720 00:50:38 Oh, please, Muffy. Not another crusade.
721 00:50:42 Chippie, we have a social obligation to the less fortunate.
722 00:50:47 I know you laugh at my hobbies, but this is important to me!
723 00:50:52 Mm. You have such a big heart.
724 00:50:55 That's why you're my little cuddly-widdles.
725 00:50:58 Oh, my big, strong pheromone factory.
726 00:51:03 -Mmm! -Oh!
727 00:51:06 Oh, brother. Suddenly I've lost my appetite.
728 00:51:10 You know...
729 00:51:12 I guess I had imagined Insectopia...
730 00:51:16 I don't know... a little differently.
731 00:51:24 Oh, Muffy!
732 00:51:26 -No! Oh, no! -Oh, no.
733 00:51:29 Look out!
734 00:51:36 Z, help me! Z!
735 00:51:41 Don't let me... Don't let me go, Z.
736 00:51:47 Get me out of here!
737 00:51:55 Bala!
738 00:52:03 Whoa, this is not good.
739 00:52:12 Whoa!
740 00:52:16 Whoa-oa-oa!
741 00:52:50 Whoa-oa-oa!
742 00:53:01 Hi.
743 00:53:09 -Z? -Yes?
744 00:53:11 It looks like this is it, just when... I was starting to like you.
745 00:53:26 Who the hell is that?
746 00:53:42 That's enough.
747 00:53:44 I ain't tellin' you nothin'.
748 00:53:48 Soldier, the princess is vital to the future of this colony.
749 00:53:53 She must be returned to take her proper place as queen.
750 00:53:56 We already have a queen.
751 00:53:59 As for your friend Z, why should I hurt him?
752 00:54:02 He's not important.
753 00:54:06 Now, soldier,
754 00:54:08 we all know that one individual ant doesn't matter.
755 00:54:12 Not you...
756 00:54:14 not Cutter...
757 00:54:16 Not even her.
758 00:54:19 Azteca!
759 00:54:22 Don't tell that tight-ass anything, Weaver! Aagh!
760 00:54:24 Where is Z?
761 00:54:26 -I don't know where he is! -Hmm.
762 00:54:30 That's too bad.
763 00:54:39 Wait! Insectopia.
764 00:54:42 Uhh! I know it sounds crazy, but that's where he'd be going.
765 00:54:46 Soldier, you think this is a game? Insectopia does not exist.
766 00:54:52 As a matter of fact... it does.
767 00:54:55 -Sir? -I'll brief you on the coordinates.
768 00:54:58 You're gonna bring the princess back.
769 00:55:01 And as for Z... kill him.
770 00:55:05 But you said he didn't matter.
771 00:55:08 It's for the good of the colony. You made the right decision.
772 00:55:13 Gentlemen, now you can see...
773 00:55:16 how dangerous individualism can be.
774 00:55:20 It makes us... vulnerable.
775 00:55:24 Let's go.
776 00:55:28 Take him back to the MegaTunnel. Put him on the front line.
777 00:55:34 Dismissed.
778 00:55:43 Jeez, what was I thinking? I almost got you killed.
779 00:55:48 Z, you know, you really shouldn't be so hard on...
780 00:55:51 That's it. I'm taking you back to the colony.
781 00:55:55 -Uhh! Ow! Oh. -Uhh!
782 00:55:58 Insectopia. You know, I must've been crazy.
783 00:56:02 -Z? -But you know what?
784 00:56:03 -I can admit it when I'm wrong. -Z.
785 00:56:05 And this time, I gotta tell ya, I was absolutely, 1OO%...
786 00:56:11 correct.
787 00:56:13 Have... Have you ever seen anything more beautiful in your life?
788 00:56:19 -It's... Insect... -Shh! Don't jinx it. Come on!
789 00:56:33 I can see clearly now The rain is gone
790 00:56:41 I can see all obstacles in my way
791 00:56:48 Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
792 00:56:53 -Pardon us. -It's gonna be a bright
793 00:56:56 -Bright, bright -Bright sunshiny day
794 00:57:00 It's gonna be a bright
795 00:57:04 -Bright, bright -Bright sunshiny day
796 00:57:12 Look all around Nothing but blue skies
797 00:57:20 Look straight ahead Nothing but
798 00:57:23 Blue skies
799 00:57:35 Whoa
800 00:57:37 I can see clearly now The rain is gone
801 00:57:45 I can see all obstacles in my way
802 00:57:48 All right, everybody. I want all teams in place,
803 00:57:52 fully prepared, ready to seal the doors here and here.
804 00:57:56 Make certain the digging crew stays on schedule...
805 00:57:59 for breakthrough midway in the dedication ceremony.
806 00:58:03 Now all we need is the princess.
807 00:58:21 Mm.
808 00:58:34 -This stuff tastes like crap. -Really? Let me try some.
809 00:58:40 Hey, it is crap. Not bad.
810 00:58:45 -Somebody needs to feed that fire. -Dude, I did it last time.
811 00:58:49 I'm not gonna get it. It's not my job.
812 00:58:52 What about the new guy? He hasn't contributed yet.
813 00:58:57 And... you know, he just died in my arms like that.
814 00:59:01 l... You know, I don't think he ever once in his life...
815 00:59:06 made his own choice.
816 00:59:08 I never knew it was like that.
817 00:59:12 I mean, up in the palace...
818 00:59:14 Well, I guess we just let the general make all the decisions.
819 00:59:20 Let me ask you something. What made you come to the bar that night?
820 00:59:25 I guess I was looking for a little trouble.
821 00:59:28 Well, trouble's my middle name.
822 00:59:32 Actually, my middle name is Marion, but, uh,
823 00:59:35 -I don't want you to spread that around. -You're pretty strange.
824 00:59:38 -You do know that, don't you? -Well,
825 00:59:41 strange's not exactly the word I would use.
826 00:59:44 I like it. You're not like anyone else.
827 00:59:47 Actually, now that you mention it, there is a certain strangeness to me.
828 00:59:52 I mean, it's a, you know, kind of a bizarre quality. Some have said "freak."
829 00:59:57 But it's, uh, you know, complimentary.
830 01:00:03 Hey, new guy. We need more wood.
831 01:00:09 I'll be right back. Just hold that thought...
832 01:00:13 whatever it is you were thinking.
833 01:00:16 Hey, you ever wonder why they call you guys "pests"?
834 01:00:20 What if, like, we're just these tiny little things...
835 01:00:24 and we're just, like, part of this whole other huge universe...
836 01:00:28 that's, like, so big we don't even know it exists?
837 01:00:32 Man, that is so deep.
838 01:00:36 Perfect. Nothing like a little manual labor...
839 01:00:39 on the most romantic night of my life.
840 01:00:46 Hi. I was in the neighborhood and I thought I'd drop in.
841 01:00:52 This is, uh, very bohemian.
842 01:00:56 Aloha, dude. Welcome to Insec...
843 01:01:01 Sorry for interrupting.
844 01:01:05 You see, our princess has, uh, gone missing,
845 01:01:10 and we're just sick about it.
846 01:01:14 She's about yea tall, fairly easy on the eyes.
847 01:01:18 -Anybody seen her? -That's her.
848 01:01:23 Don't worry, Princess, you'll be back home soon.
849 01:01:27 Listen, Cutter, I'm... I'm not going back.
850 01:01:30 The thing is, Princess, I got orders.
851 01:01:34 Orders? Can't you just once think for yourself?
852 01:01:40 Well, that was very impressive. Where's Z?
853 01:01:44 -Z? He's, uh... -Dead.
854 01:01:48 Z's dead. You don't need to worry about him.
855 01:01:52 Z's dead. Well, he was an ant with ideas.
856 01:01:57 Too bad for him.
857 01:01:59 Princess, your colony needs you.
858 01:02:02 Cutter!
859 01:02:04 -Stop right now! Let go of me! -Bala!
860 01:02:07 Stop, you... Oh, no.
861 01:02:11 What am I gonna do?
862 01:02:14 All right, look. Let's be rational about this.
863 01:02:17 You know, Bala and I, you know, she's a princess...
864 01:02:20 and I'm a... I'm a soil-relocation engineer.
865 01:02:24 So wha... You're no... Whew!
866 01:02:26 On the other hand, uh... I've gotta go back for her.
867 01:02:30 I'll-I'll give you a lift.
868 01:02:33 S-S-S... Whoa! Ohh!
869 01:02:37 It's the least I can do.
870 01:02:39 Besides, it's what my waddly-kiddles would want.
871 01:02:47 Uh, look, how about a cup of joe first?
872 01:02:50 Well, old boy... saddle up.
873 01:02:54 It... Whoa!
874 01:03:03 Look out!
875 01:03:08 Ah, Princess.
876 01:03:10 -You're just in time. -Take your hands off me.
877 01:03:14 General, what exactly is going on here?
878 01:03:16 -I demand an explanation. -I'll explain everything afterwards.
879 01:03:21 -Is the southeast entrance secure? -Yes, sir.
880 01:03:23 Not afterwards. Now.
881 01:03:30 I don't like the way you think and I don't like the way you run this colony.
882 01:03:34 And I don't like you. The wedding is off.
883 01:03:37 -Things are going to change around here. -You're right, Princess.
884 01:03:42 Things are going to change. Why don't we make her more comfortable?
885 01:03:46 She'll be here for a while.
886 01:03:50 What do you think you're doing? My mother will have your head.
887 01:03:54 I doubt that. Ah, you've got a fighter spirit, Bala.
888 01:03:59 And that's just what we need to start our new colony.
889 01:04:02 We will rinse away all the filth from our gutters.
890 01:04:05 We'll start anew, with you by my side as my queen.
891 01:04:09 You're crazy.
892 01:04:13 I believe history will see things differently.
893 01:04:17 All right, gentlemen. Time to take your positions.
894 01:04:20 Someday... Someday you'll thank me.
895 01:04:33 Pull up! Pull up! Aah! There it is!
896 01:04:39 Oof! Oh!
897 01:04:41 Well, then, go get the woman you love, Z.
898 01:04:46 So long, Chip. And thanks.
899 01:04:53 You there. Where do you think you're goin'?
900 01:04:56 Me? Oh, no, I was just... You know, l...
901 01:04:59 You're not supposed to be out here.
902 01:05:01 All workers are to report to the tunnel-opening ceremonies.
903 01:05:04 Yes, yes, of course. The-The tunnel-opening ceremonies.
904 01:05:07 l... Well, I should get going, then. l...
905 01:05:11 -You know, the-the... -Hey!
906 01:05:14 I'm going to the... the tunnel-opening ceremonies.
907 01:05:17 -I'd... better get goin'. -Get moving.
908 01:05:19 I'm going to the... the tunnel-opening ceremonies. l...
909 01:05:25 Excuse me, please. Tunnel-opening ceremonies.
910 01:05:27 -Hey, worker! -Opening the tunnel. They need me.
911 01:05:30 -I'm the key man. -Where do you think you're going?
912 01:05:32 Tunnel-opening ceremonies.
913 01:05:37 Hey! Let me outta here!
914 01:05:42 Hey!
915 01:05:49 Gosh, this-this day just keeps getting better and better.
916 01:05:53 I mean big trouble!
917 01:05:57 Are you listening to me out there? I'm the princess!
918 01:06:01 Damn it!
919 01:06:07 Wow, your manners haven't improved much.
920 01:06:09 Z!
921 01:06:10 Whoa! Whoa!
922 01:06:13 -Ooh! -It's you. You came back for me.
923 01:06:16 Well, yeah, I came back for you. I have strong feelings for you.
924 01:06:21 Let's face it, you're... you're... you're beautiful. l...
925 01:06:25 A little combative at times, but I think we can work on that.
926 01:06:29 You talk too much.
927 01:06:34 Gee, I think I'm about to become the strong, silent type.
928 01:06:40 Come on. The city's deserted. We'd better get outta here.
929 01:06:43 Z... we can't go.
930 01:06:47 Mandible's insane. He... He keeps talking about...
931 01:06:51 washing away the filth and-and changing history and...
932 01:06:55 and I think he's going to try to kill my mother.
933 01:06:58 Not just your mother... everyone.
934 01:07:01 -What's going on? -Look.
935 01:07:03 Here we are, safe in the city.
936 01:07:06 But they're gonna seal everybody off in the MegaTunnel.
937 01:07:08 And... here's the lake.
938 01:07:10 You're right.
939 01:07:13 We can't leave now.
940 01:07:16 Come on. We gotta get down there.
941 01:07:18 Today is the realization of a dream.
942 01:07:23 A dream of a proud colony.
943 01:07:25 A pure colony. A colony reborn.
944 01:07:33 Moments from now this tunnel will open.
945 01:07:37 The past will be washed away and a new day will dawn.
946 01:07:43 A stirring speech, General.
947 01:07:46 I only wish my daughter were here to appreciate it.
948 01:07:49 Your Majesty, I know how concerned you are about Bala.
949 01:07:52 But my scouts are on her trail and it's only a matter of time...
950 01:07:56 General, I don't want to discuss it. Just find her.
951 01:07:59 I will, Your Highness.
952 01:08:02 Good-bye.
953 01:08:19 Seal up the doors.
954 01:08:22 -Cutter, did you hear me? -Sir, I've been thinking.
955 01:08:27 Do we need to go through with this? Look at what these workers have done.
956 01:08:31 They got the right stuff. Isn't there any other way?
957 01:08:35 Cutter, you're a fine officer. You have discipline, courage, ability.
958 01:08:41 But you seem to have a weakness for the lower orders that I find disturbing.
959 01:08:45 -Now, are you with me? -Sir, uh... I apologize.
960 01:08:49 -All right, then. Seal it up. -Yes, sir.
961 01:09:05 As I look out on this magnificent tunnel,
962 01:09:08 I am filled with pride.
963 01:09:11 -Jump! -In these difficult times,
964 01:09:14 it is a great solace to know that you, our workers...
965 01:09:18 Mom! Wait!
966 01:09:20 Every worker in the colony is here. Wait a minute. That guy owes me money.
967 01:09:25 This tremendous accomplishment is a testimony to the strength...
968 01:09:29 -Put your backs into it! -Go warn your mother.
969 01:09:32 -I gotta get to those diggers before they break through. -There's not enough time.
970 01:09:35 Hey, leave the pessimism to me, okay?
971 01:09:42 Excuse me! Sorry about that. Excuse me.
972 01:09:44 In a few moments when our expert diggers break through to the surface,
973 01:09:48 -Mom! Mom, stop. -the sun will pour into this...
974 01:09:50 Bala! Where've you been? Are you all right?
975 01:09:53 -I'm fine. -What happened?
976 01:09:56 Mother, we're in terrible danger.
977 01:10:11 Put your backs into it, people.
978 01:10:13 Wait! Hold... Hey, stop digging!
979 01:10:16 -Z? Is that you? -We must stop!
980 01:10:19 Z! You're back!
981 01:10:21 -Oh, Z! Oh. -Weaver!
982 01:10:23 Z! What's the matter?
983 01:10:26 Ho-Hold up, everyone. Stop. Stop digging.
984 01:10:30 -On whose authority? -On your own authority.
985 01:10:33 If you break through that wall, we're all gonna...
986 01:10:35 Drown. This tunnel is going to flood.
987 01:10:37 So we've got to get everyone out of here.
988 01:10:42 Look, I got orders, and those orders say "dig."
989 01:10:46 What if someone ordered you to jump off a bridge?
990 01:10:49 Oh, brother, I'm asking the wrong guy. Look, think for yourselves!
991 01:10:53 Gimme that! I've had enough out of you.
992 01:10:56 Get back to work.
993 01:11:01 Uh-oh.
994 01:11:04 -Let's get outta here! -Run!
995 01:11:08 Run! Keep going!
996 01:11:10 Everyone, listen to me. We've all been deceived.
997 01:11:16 We need to calmly head toward the exits.
998 01:11:18 -Run for your lives! It's gonna flood! -No. Don't panic.
999 01:11:22 -Don't panic! -Every ant for himself!
1000 01:11:35 -All the exits are blocked! -We're trapped!
1001 01:12:02 -What are we going to do? -There's nothing we can do!
1002 01:12:11 Yes, there is. Weaver, give me a leg up.
1003 01:12:14 Everyone, listen to me!
1004 01:12:17 -Who the heck are you? -He's Z!
1005 01:12:24 Listen, we gotta help each other get outta here before we all drown.
1006 01:12:28 -How? -By making a ladder.
1007 01:12:30 A ladder!
1008 01:12:32 Hey, if we built this, we can do anything.
1009 01:12:35 -Okay, let's move it! -I'm on it. All of you, gather round.
1010 01:12:38 You, start climbing.
1011 01:12:41 -Grab my arm. -All right. Here I go. -Come on.
1012 01:12:44 -Go, go, go! -Right!
1013 01:12:48 -Excuse me, Your Majesty.
1014 01:12:52 Z, I've gotta help my Mom.
1015 01:12:55 Don't worry. I know almost exactly what I'm doing.
1016 01:13:01 I'll see you at the top.
1017 01:13:06 Gentlemen, there comes a time...
1018 01:13:10 in the evolution of a perfect colony...
1019 01:13:13 when the strong are meant to rise above the weak.
1020 01:13:18 Now is that time.
1021 01:13:20 Below us right now,
1022 01:13:22 the weak elements of the colony...
1023 01:13:26 are being washed away.
1024 01:13:28 --Oh, my God, we're not gonna make it!
1025 01:13:32 -We need more ants. -You two better get up there.
1026 01:13:35 Weaver, you can't hold it alone.
1027 01:13:38 Get going.
1028 01:13:40 Hang in there, buddy.
1029 01:13:57 -Got it! -Hurry up! Go, go, go, go!
1030 01:14:03 Our princess is secured, and our glorious future is at hand.
1031 01:14:07 We can all stand proud.
1032 01:14:10 It is time for a new beginning.
1033 01:14:23 What the hell is that?
1034 01:14:26 I think that's the weak element, sir.
1035 01:14:29 -Gimme... Gimme a hand! -Z! You?
1036 01:14:33 Let go! Don't you understand? It's for the good of the colony.
1037 01:14:38 Wha-What are you saying? We are the colony!
1038 01:14:45 Cutter... what are you doing?
1039 01:14:48 Something I should've done a long time ago.
1040 01:14:51 This is for the good of the colony, sir.
1041 01:14:56 You useless, ungrateful maggot!
1042 01:14:58 -I am the colony! -Look out!
1043 01:15:01 Oof! Aa-aah!
1044 01:15:05 Aa-aa-aah!
1045 01:15:13 Z!
1046 01:15:15 Men, let's move it! Get these ants up here.
1047 01:15:22 -Keep it moving. -Thank goodness we made it.
1048 01:15:30 Wait here.
1049 01:15:41 -Uhh! Okay. -Thank you.
1050 01:15:43 Weaver.
1051 01:15:46 Where's Z?
1052 01:15:56 -Oh, no. -Back up, everybody, back up!
1053 01:16:00 Give him some air. Back up. Z, oh, Z.
1054 01:16:08 Please wake up.
1055 01:16:12 Oh, no!
1056 01:16:19 Huh!
1057 01:16:32 You know, Weaver, you still owe me that dinner.
1058 01:16:36 Babylove.
1059 01:16:39 -We made it, Z! -You da ant!
1060 01:16:43 -Eh! -You did it.
1061 01:16:45 We did it.
1062 01:16:47 -Oh! -Fellas! Fellas, please!
1063 01:16:49 This is very embarrassing for me, l...
1064 01:16:52 On the other hand, I probably could get used to this.
1065 01:16:59 There you have it. Your average "boy meets girl,
1066 01:17:02 boy likes girl, boy changes underlying social order" story.
1067 01:17:07 So, what else can I tell you?
1068 01:17:09 We rebuilt the colony. It's even better than before.
1069 01:17:12 You know, 'cause now it has a very large indoor swimming pool.
1070 01:17:16 Bala and I, incidentally, are thinking of starting a family,
1071 01:17:19 you know, just a few kids... maybe a million or two to begin with.
1072 01:17:24 And I'm workin' with a new therapist, you know, terrific, absolutely terrific.
1073 01:17:28 He's been putting me in touch with my inner maggot,
1074 01:17:31 which is helping me a great deal.
1075 01:17:33 And, you know, I finally feel like I've found my place.
1076 01:17:37 And you know what? It's right back where I started.
1077 01:17:39 But the difference is, this time I chose it.
