There are loads of great days in a person's life:
your birthday, Christmas Day...
But the best of all, the coolest by far...
is the first day of summer vacation!
Stop, stop, SIGP-
Are you really gonna tell it like that, Zip?
Too corny.
You tell it, wise guy.
Fine, I will.
ZIP AND ZAP AND THE MARBLE GANG
If I made a list of the lamest, most boring,
suckiest things in the world,
getting punished would win by a landslide.
Getting punished always sucks. It ruins your life.
If you like watching TV, they don't let you.
If you're dying to race bikes, you're not allowed.
Oh, and if you plan to
have an awesome summer,
you get sent to summer school.
Summer vacation at school, for God's sake!
My brother and I are sure about one thing:
summer is for play.
I'm Zip and this ¡s my brother, Zap.
Your name's Filo?
Yeah.
You guys want a cupcake? I only have one left,
but you can have it.
- No. - No.
Thanks.
Did you get sent to Hope School all summer as punishment
- for flunking like me? - No, I stole an exam.
'And you') .Me? '
For telling him to steal it.
My brothers got sent there too.
Really? What did they say about it?
That it's an awful place.
They make a man out of you there.
Don't worry. I don't care how bad ¡t is.
I promise we'll have an awesome summer.
That's right, bro.
Let's go.
Well, ¡t doesn't look so bad, does it?
No.
Gentlemen, welcome to the H.R.C. The Hope Re-education Center.
There's no time to waste. Get your things and follow me.
Leave your things! Now!
Everything: marbles, trading cards,
tops, balls, rackets, knick knacks...
Hand over any recreational ¡tem related to fun
and/or any clothing you might be wearing at this time.
Then what will we wear?
HOPE RE-EDUCATION CENTER
Boarding students... attention!
I said attention! Are you deaf or what? Let's go!
Sebastian Hope.
Past, present and future.
Our founder welcomes you.
And so do I.
I'm the director of the Hope Re-education Center.
Here you will receive the most valuable gift of your entire life:
matu rity.
Following the doctrine of our founder,
you will become exemplary, useful members of society.
There's no place here for non-conformity,
rebelliousness and, of course, infantile activities...
such as games.
What does that mean? There's no playtime?
Student 087!
Students are not to speak to guards,
teachers, and especially the director
without permission.
Understood?
Like Sebastian Hope used to say:
"Play breeds foolishness...
and work breeds righteousness."
Enjoy your first supper here.
Welcome.
Hey, how's ¡t going?
Hi.
- Can we sit here? - Sure.
I never reject anyone.
I'm always the one who gets rejected.
Even the new ones.
So I'd better go. Don't worry about it.
No, no.
You can stay.
Okay!
I'm Zap and this ¡s my brother, Zip.
- Nice to meet you. - That's Filo.
- Nice to meet you. - What's your name?
Microbe, but my friends call me Micro.
Well, actually I don't have any friends.
But ¡fl did, they'd call me Micro.
Nice to meet you, Micro.
Why are you here?
For being the most dangerous kid at school?
No, for being the one who's always sick.
The mountain air ¡s good for asthma.
You met Falconetti, right?
The director with the eye patch.
Yeah.
And Heidi? The smurf with the dog.
They call him that because he's so sweet.
Hi, Flea.
Who gave you permission to talk to the new kids?
I did. I'm the new kid. You have my permission to get lost.
Well, well. The cocky one in the group.
What ¡fl don't want to? Are you gonna make me?
No, he will.
Go on, scram.
Leave him alone...
What happened here?
- He hit me. - What? That's a lie!
- But I should... - Stop right there.
Number.
Six.
- Your student number, idiot. - Oh, heck.
087.
Apparently student 087
has yet to fully understand the true nature of this place
and ¡ts rules.
We'd better give him a hand.
Take him straight to the Meditation Room.
He can reflect on his behavior there.
Let's go.
Hey, look!
My own bathroom and everything! I'll take it.
You look like Mazinger Z!
Bionic eyes, metal teeth... Flying fists!
Quick!
Five, four, three,
two, one!
Sleep! Snore and sleep!
I can't hear you snore!
"Here you will find the key to your destiny. And through reflection
you will find the path."
What crap!
Hey, good evening.
Since I became director, countless
boys have been through here.
Believe me, we've had ¡t all:
wild kids, smart alecks, liars, snobs...
And all of them, every single one of them,
have given in to me.
You're not special.
You'll give in, I guarantee it.
My first night at Hope, I thought:
"This place can't be so bad."
Andl was right.
Because this place is much, much worse.
Heidi wakes us up in the morning.
And he always does it with a bang.
Rise and shine, ladies!
The sun will be up in 5 minutes and ¡t needs company!
We spend the rest of the day enjoying a wide range of activities.
First, to start, we have classes.
"The man who told me this was Manuel's father."
Let's see, 087.
Identify the relative clause.
The relative clause? The father. He's the only relative.
Silence!
Thank you!
Silence! 087, to meditation!
One, two, three!
And second, and last, gym class... with that pain, Cri-Cricket.
Good morning to you, sir and miss.
I picked this ﬂower for your niece.
Daily exercise brings good health...
When faced with total boredom,
we all look for something to get the pulse going.
But at Hope, you have to always keep your eyes open.
Because if you relax for a second, when you least expect it,
you're in big trouble.
If you don't see it coming,
you're in for a very bad time.
And if you're too impatient,
you just get locked up again.
In the end, we all look for something
to make imprisonment more bearable.
But this is the only place
where dreams never come true.
To recap...
"Hope ¡s the biggest, stinkiest poo"
on Earth and part of abroad.
"And I want to get out of here... right now."
Can you...?
Yeah, yeah. The Meditation Room.
Marbles.
Cool.
What's wrong?
I thought you'd be excited to see them.
At least a "yahoo" or something.
Yahoo.
It's this place, isn't it?
It sucks.
What are you looking at?
"I'm Sebastian Hope. I hate kids and I'm an assface."
You know what? I'm sick of this place.
It's ruining our lives.
- I want to play. - Put those away, Zap.
The smurfs will take them.
I don't care!
They can go ahead and punish me.
I'm a boy, I want to play!
Wait, put them away! I have a better idea.
Much better.
Okay, here's the plan.
If we want to survive here without dying of boredom, we have to adapt.
What does Falconetti want?
To turn us into useful, exemplary members of society.
That's what we'll do.
We'll be what they want us to be.
Obedient and well-behaved.
But only during the day. At night...
we're going underground.
At night, we're going to play.
With what?
- Marbles? - No.
Even better. With this lame school.
With ¡ts stupid rules and ¡ts ¡diot director.
But how are we going to do that?
Together. Like in the movies.
- All for one and one for all. - Like a gang.
That's right. Like a gang.
We'll sabotage the school. We're the Resistance.
We're...
the Marble Gang.
The Marble Gang!
Awesome!
We can leave a marble each time.
Yeah. And we need our own symbol.
What could ¡t be?
I've got ¡t!
We're the Resistance, right?
We'll use... B for Bictory!
Well, actually...
you mean V for Victory.
No, it's perfect.
We're in a school, rebelling against the rules.
B for Bictory will be our symbol.
To the Marble Gang.
To the Marble Gang!
Find out who did it.
I don't care ¡f ¡t was one, two or the whole rat-¡nfested pack.
When you've got them,
I'll show them that at Hope a child's prank
gets a punishment fit for a man.
Don't worry, sir.
My man on the inside will find the culprits.
Get that thing off his eye right now.
Yes, sir.
What ¡s this?
- Come on! - Here we go!
Goal... goal...
What happened?
There's no TV!
What the hell are we going to do without a TV!
Hey.
Do you know the hooligans who did this?
Hey, you.
- You know anything about this? - No.
No.
Who are the hooligans?
British soccer fans, right?
Hey!
I'm warning you.
Either we find out who's doing this
or we're all in big trouble!
SUPER STICKY GLUE
I'm only going to ask this question once.
Are any of you responsible
for these acts of vandalism?
Very well.
I'd like to send a message to those responsible
for these atrocities.
Sooner or later, I will find out who you are.
Enjoy your moment.
I will enjoy mine.
Now, since I think it's too cruel
to leave you all without supper,
I'm going to give you a brief period of time to eat.
Sit down.
You have one second to eat supper.
Time's up.
Get up and go to bed.
You heard him!
Put down your spoons, knives and forks!
If I see someone with cutlery I'll stab him with it.
Let's go! Time for sweet dreams!
Excuse me... director... sir.
Isn't this... punishment too... harsh?
I'm the one who makes the rules at this school.
And you're the one who makes them run.
This isn't over yet.
If we don't get supper today,
they don't get lunch tomorrow.
Remember, we have three hours to sleep.
After that, we're ready for action.
Okay-
If you'd put ¡t in a flower pot instead of a book,
¡t wouldn't have died.
You don't get it, bonehead.
This ¡s a gift for Matilde, Falconetti's niece.
She uses a dried flower as a bookmark.
Now she'll think of me whenever she reads.
Guys, we have a problem.
What is it?
"I know who you are."
If you don't want me to rat on you, meet me
"tonight at 10 in the cemetery."
Come on!
Let's go.
Come on.
Over there!
A ghost!
It's a statue, you blind bat.
Boo!
The Hope vandals?
You guys are wimps.
Vandals, us? We're little angels, right, guys?
Yeah, little angels.
Don't play dumb. I know who you are
and everything you've done.
I'm bored too. I want to join the gang.
- Okay, you're in. - No way.
- She can't join. - Why not?
- Yeah, why not? - Because she can't.
She isn't one of us.
Besides, she's Falconetti's niece.
- She can't and that's that. - So you're the boss.
I thought things in a gang were decided democratically.
I see I was wrong.
Zap ¡s your leader.
We don't have a leader.
This gang ¡s a democracy and we're going to vote.
Those in favor of Matilde joining, raise your hand.
Now those against this stuck-up nerd meddling in our affairs.
I'm abstemious.
Som/-
You're rejecting me because I'm a girl.
Exactly. No girl can do what we do.
We'll see about that.
Let's go, we have a lot to do.
- Is this it? - No.
Find one that looks tasty.
Filo, what are you doing?
Filo.
What are you doing?
What?
I wanted to try ¡t before we ruin it.
- You want some? - No.
There's no time, okay?
Look, salt.
Nobody will dare eat this tomorrow.
Somebody's coming! Hide!
Under there, quick!
I haven't seen any tattoos. Have you?
No.
We have to keep looking. Remember, the tattoo says...
What's this? Enjoying a stroll?
Go to your table or your next stroll will be on crutches. Now!
Hey!
That's no way... to treat... children.
Are you telling me how to treat these brats?
Are... you... telling... me?
What did I tell you two?
Guys, we have good news and bad news.
Which first?
The good news. No, the bad news. No, the good...
The bad news.
- Not the good news. - Relax.
How much news ¡s there?
The good news ¡s we know who the guy in the hood is.
The bad news ¡s it's Heidi.
Ouch.
That ¡s bad news. Very bad.
Who was brave enough to go back and throw salt in the food?
It wasn't salt.
I added a special syrup.
Why mess up the food ¡f you can mess up the teachers?
You were right, Zap. Girls don't do
what boys do. We do ¡t better.
So I'm requesting a recount.
Those in favor?
Yes!
Welcome to the Marble Gang.
- What next? Let's poison the water. - Stop.
Today it's something different.
- We have to solve a mystery. - Let's hear it.
- Can you get a flashlight? - What do you think, dummy?
I can't see anything.
Lower me down further.
And hurry up. My blood pressure ¡s sensitive.
I faint very easily.
Lower us down some more!
Stop.
What's that smell?
- Almond sponge cake! - No!
They're going to fall!
Guys! Are you okay?
Can you hear me?
Nothing.
We need to get them out of there.
We need a rope. We'll throw ¡t down and pull them up.
I'll find one. This was my fault.
If I can't find one, I'll make one.
If I can't make one...
Okay, go on.
Guys!
Are you up there?
Hello?
I hear them.
Are you okay?
Don't worry!
- We're going to throw down a rope! - Great!
He found the rope already?
Quick!
Did you hear that? Here comes the rope.
I have to follow him to see ¡f those are our toys.
Stay here. When Filo gets back, pull them out.
No way! I'm going with you.
How mean!
They've slashed them all.
At least they're not ours.
These are older than my parents.
Where do they get them?
- And why are they here? - I don't know.
One thing's for sure: there's no monster.
Good lord. What do we do now?
Listen.
But don't turn around. Behind us,
around 40 feet away,
there's a tunnel with a gate. It's open.
I'll throw this at him
and we'll make a run for it.
Okay-
Doggie...
Look how pretty.
Run!
Run, run!
Okay, genius. What now?
Wow!
That was close.
Let's go.
Look.
It's Sebastian Hope's tomb.
Well? Wanna pay assface a visit?
Come on.
Well?
Any luck?
Are you sure the toys we're looking for are here?
Yes, I'm sure!
So keep digging. And remember.
We're looking for a hammer, a steering wheel...
A slingshot and a rubber duckie.
What are all these toys doing down here?
Who's the fool who buried them?
I am.
Falconetti!
You can't educate a child surrounded by toys.
Guys, I got the rope!
Come out, I'm back.
Hey!
Are you guys down there?
Som/v-
When I get nervous my glucose level drops
and I get aerophagia.
Have you got any chocolate on you?
No.
Do you think there are rats down here?
Can we talk about something else?
Yeah, good idea.
How are things with Matilde? Do you still like her?
Yeah, totally.
I wish I could spend every summer
with her for the rest of my life.
Wow, that's a lot of summers.
Maybe you shouldn't get your hopes up too much.
Why? Did she say something to you?
About me?
No, but I think she looks more at Zap. But that's normal.
Girls always like bad boys.
Hey, I'm bad too.
Yeah, but they like the really bad ones.
You know, rebellious and brave ones.
Zap ¡s way ahead of you there.
I don't care. Zap cares more about slingshots than girls.
You know what? I'd rather talk about rats.
Are you sure the diamonds are in those toys?
Diamonds?
What diamonds?
I said to keep digging!
Keep quiet or you'll eat the shovel.
If they're not inside them,
the toys are the key to finding them.
The four toys are drawn on the map we found.
So they're obviously important.
Maybe we should check the map again.
We might have missed something.
It's in my office. Get the toys and we'll go.
Yes, sir.
Let's go.
Look!
It's a way out. Let's go!
Okay, we must be about 500 yards away from Hope.
How do you know?
It's easy, I added the distance we traveled underground
and I calculated the square root...
of me seeing the school from here.
Come on, guys! Grab the rope!
Good!
Grab on tight!
- Are you hurt? - No.
Hey, I'm really sorry you had to find out
your uncle ¡s mixed up in all this.
That's okay. We aren't close. He doesn't even want me here.
I come every summer because it's beautiful here.
The library ¡s full of adventure books
and my uncle bugs me even less
than my parents.
Parents! Tell me about it.
The others won't believe ¡t
when they hear there are diamonds hidden in the school.
Anyway.
See you tomorrow.
Where were you guys? What happened?
I'll tell you tomorrow.
Wake up!
Time to get UP!
Cool. It's like a pirate adventure.
A map, a man with one eye and a hidden treasure.
But who hid the diamonds in the school?
Who knows.
What matters now ¡s finding them before Falconetti.
To find the diamonds, we need to see the map.
And to see the map, we need to sneak into the office.
And to sneak into the office, we need to steal the key.
And to steal the key, we need the diamonds.
No, Filo.
To steal the key, you have me.
Come on.
Hey, how did things go with Matilde last night? Did she mention me?
Nothing?
She didn't say ¡f she likes me? Or that she's totally in love?
No. She didn't say anything.
And quit yapping about love, you're driving me nuts.
Let's go.
Close the door.
Quick, everyone look for the map.
Let's go.
I've got ¡t! I found the map!
Clear the table.
Look.
Wow, ¡t looks like a board game. Cool.
- The diamond must be the treasure. - Let's take ¡t with us.
No. If Falconetti finds out, who knows what he'll do.
Z¡p's right. We have to copy it.
- Who can draw well? - Not me.
- I'm awful. - I have a photographic memory.
Come on, there's no such thing.
Don't tell lies.
Okay, look at the door.
As you come in, on the right,
there's a wooden sideboard with three doors.
On the left, an umbrella stand with 4 black umbrellas.
On the sideboard, an ¡ron clock with a hawk on top,
a globe, six pipes and two hunting dogs.
On the wall above, five lithographs of birds:
a goldfinch, an owl, a woodpecker, a hummingbird and a cockatoo.
0h, and the last one ¡s crooked.
Take your time, champ.
All set.
Filo!
Turn that off, we'll get caught!
- Come on! - Wait, wait.
Don't turn ¡t off.
Off or on? Make up your minds!
The Hope School has been closed.
Authorities have declared the school unsuitable for teaching.
Here we see images
of the school's opening and its founder, Sebastian Hope.
Authorities and public figures joined the successful businessman
on one of the happiest days of his life.
Hope took on the arduous task of teaching with great enthusiasm.
A remarkable visionary, the successful toy manufacturer
created a school with a different teaching style.
Thus, his motto: "Playing is learning."
The essence of learning resides
in understanding concepts.
Playing is fun,
and one can also learn while playing.
Hope was a simple craftsman
who started from scratch
and built the country's biggest toy company
and he called it "Hope Toys."
His enormous profits allowed him to enjoy
his other great hobby: collecting diamonds.
Shortly after the school opened,
some parents complained about the school's teaching doctrine.
Nobody learns anything here.
It's a waste of time. Look...
Play breeds foolishness and work breeds righteousness.
I'll see to it personally that this place is shut down.
Where is my son? We're leaving this circus right now!
Listen to me. You can't educate a child surrounded by toys!
- Of course not! - He's absolutely right!
I said we're leaving!
Let's go.
I want to stay and play!
Wow, Falconetti was a student here.
Unbelievable.
Yeah, mind-boggling.
It's identical.
Even better than tracing it.
Look.
Now we know who hid the diamonds here.
Sebastian Hope.
So assface didn't hate kids.
He was nice and fun.
He had toys everywhere.
Your uncle ¡s full of it.
He lied to everyone.
Hey, how do you play this game?
Do we need dice?
Look, I think Falconetti ¡s looking in the wrong place.
If we follow the map, where are the toys?
Of course, they're along the path.
But where's the path?
No idea. But to find it,
we'll have to follow the instructions.
One: go to the starting square.
Two: find the tokens.
Three: solve the riddle.
Four:
find the toys and hold on to them.
Look.
First there's a steering wheel, then a hammer,
then a slingshot
and finally, a rubber duckie.
Five:
"Play with your head and my treasure will be your reward."
And the treasure
¡s the diamonds.
But first we have to solve the riddle, right?
No, first we have to find the starting square.
It looks like a chess board.
He's right.
We need to find a chess board or something similar.
Okay, we'd better split up.
That way we'll find ¡t faster.
You wanted to see me?
I hope you like it.
It's beautiful.
It's the best present anyone's ever given me.
Thank you!
Give me that!
Sorry, Zip...
Leave me alone! I know what
you are: a sneak and a thief.
- You knew I liked her. - You like every girl.
This one was for real, you moron!
You even stole my present!
From now on, you two don't exist! Forget about me.
What's going on here? Why all the shouting?
Did you forget the rules?
To hell with the rules! And to hell with you, Rocket Hair!
Comb your hair, for God's sake!
To the Meditation Room!
What a load of crap!
Well, well.
The good brother has come for a visit.
No, I'm here to stay.
Take my advice, son.
One black sheep in a family ¡s enough.
Make the most of it. Let your brother do the job.
If I'm here, it's because I'm bad, too.
Don't be ridiculous.
We all know your brother puts you up to it.
That's a lie.
I'm the brains. He's a moron and an airhead.
Sure.
Hey, Falconetti.
Who do you think came up with the Marble Gang?
Him...
or me?
Zip... I'm sorry.
I'm the worst brother in the world.
If you never want to talk to me again, I understand.
Students, line up right now!
A wise man once said:
"Keep your memory,
for ¡t will give you incentive to impartjustice."
If mine doesn't fail me,
I promised that sooner or later
I'd find those responsible
for all the acts of vandalism we've suffered.
Proceed.
087, upper or lower?
Sorry, they're both occupied.
Are you stupid?
Which ¡s your bunk? Upper or lower? Upper or lower?
Upper. Upper.
Gentlemen,
it's time to face the consequences.
Student 087...
¡s going to enjoy an ¡ndefinite period of meditation.
But since our purpose here ¡s to ¡mpart justice,
students 089...
and 062...
- are going to join him. - No, no...
Sorry. I almost forgot.
The credit for all this...
isn't mine.
You can all congratulate your fellow student 088.
This wouldn't have been possible without his collaboration.
And just like Judas, as a good traitor,
he's entitled to his reward.
Good boy.
Get moving, let's go!
I don't get ¡t!
If you join a gang, you can't betray it.
You have to support it.
I don't get ¡t!
Filo, be quiet.
Miss.
Enjoy your last evening at Hope
in the company of your hooligan pals.
- What do you mean, my last night? «Just that.
Your parents are coming for you tomorrow
and taking you straight to a girls' boarding school.
0h, yeah? When they get here I'm going to tell them
everything you've done!
And what have I done, may I ask?
You're digging up toys
and graves to find Hope's treasure.
We know everything!
You think they'll believe you?
No, ma'am.
Nobody will.
Keep looking for useless toys.
We'll let you know when we're rich.
- Where's Zip? - Zip?
Z¡p's the one who betrayed us. He destroyed the Marble Gang!
- Drop it, Filo. - Zip?
That's impossible.
It's not his fault, it's mine.
- Evening. - Evening.
Hey, you!
Y 'Me? " “ha you:"
Where do you think you're going?
Well, Rocket Hair...
I'm part of the Resistance. Where do you think I'm going?
Get in there, wise guy.
What are you doing here?
I came to rescue you.
You have a plan, don't you?
Yeah.
But first I want to apologize.
I messed up.
I'm sorry. Really.
The gang ¡s important to me.
Well, you guys are important to me.
Let's go.
I've checked them all and there's no sign of the diamonds.
I'm starting to think they aren't here.
So am I.
One: I found the starting square.
Where ¡s it?
You're standing on it.
- Wow! - Cool.
- He's right. - But where ¡s it?
I don't see anything!
Two: we already have the tokens.
We've had them all along. Since Zap found them here.
The marbles are the game tokens.
And the riddle?
"Here you will find the key to your destiny.
And through reflection you will find the path."
The marbles are the tokens, so they're the key.
But what about reflection?
I don't know.
Maybe ¡t means we should think.
No, it's more like a play on words.
Reflection...
The mirror!
There must be a way to get ¡t out.
There's nothing.
Look for a lever or a way to open it.
It's stuck to the wall.
Okay, geniuses. Stand back.
It said "through," right?
Look, guys.
The steering wheel.
Put a marble in there.
0h, well. Goodbye, marble.
It's the path to Hope's treasure!
You think there are spiders in there?
What do you think?
Run, run!
They're getting away!
Freeze!
Quick, let's go.
Damn kids!
Move.
What ¡s this?
So this ¡s your game, Hope.
A secret passageway that leads to your diamonds.
It doesn't matter how hard you make it.
I took your school, and now...
I'm going to take your diamonds.
Now what do we do?
We follow their trail.
Find them, Shark. Hunt them down.
Find them, Shark!
Maybe the mutt ¡s lost.
Maybe he'll rip your tongue out!
Nobody move.
Shut that dog up!
Oops.
They're here.
Come on, run!
They're running. Come on, we have to follow them!
Let's go, Shark! Don't lose them!
No RUNNING
Filo, don't stop!
Let's go!
Let's go, Shark.
Where are they?
I can't hear them!
I think we lost them.
Then find them!
- Come on, Filo. - There's no way out.
Guys, look! The hammer!
The kitchen.
Guys, they're going to catch us out here.
Keep quiet.
0h, I know.
You hit ¡t here and ¡t shoots the marble
through the hole in the clock. It's a matter of strength.
What?
Come on, Filo. It's up to you.
Hit ¡t hard.
Between 20 and 30. Hit ¡t so the arrow stops there.
Go on.
But be careful. Between 20 and 30, okay?
Try not to make too much
noise, or we'll get caught.
Just make sure you don't go over 30.
Or under 20. You got it?
Okay-
- Go on, Filo. - Do it.
Let's go.
You can do it.
I hit ¡t too hard, right?
What was that?
The kitchen.
Let the dog loose.
Come on, Filo. It's okay.
You'll get ¡t right this time. And don't worry about the noise.
Yeah, you already smashed everything.
But hey, I know you can do it.
Put another marble in there.
WHISKY-FILLED CHOCOLATES
Okay, between 40 and 50.
Not too hard, not too soft, okay?
0kay.
Not too hard, not too soft.
Not too hard, not too soft...
Yes!
Great job, Filo!
Quick, get ¡n!
Hurry!
What?
- No kiss for your boyfriend? - Let's go, dummy.
You guys, run! The door stayed open!
Shark!
What did those animals do to you?
I'll get you out.
No!
If you do, the door will close. And goodbye diamonds.
But we can't...
I said no and that means no.
Let's go!
Now what do we do?
Hey, look. A marble.
Give me that.
Yes! I'll take this.
The frog!
Zap, you have to shoot a marble into ¡ts mouth. Hurry!
Uh-oh, we only have two left.
One ¡s enough. Hurry up, they're coming.
It's a really hard shot.
Chocolate? It's great for your nerves.
Want some?
Don't worry, Shark. I'll come back for you.
I promise.
Hurry up, you moron!
I'll rip your heads off, you little rats!
I know you won't miss... but please, don't miss.
Yes!
Come on, quick! Let's go!
Let's go.
I knew you wouldn't miss.
Surprise!
Help!
You little brat! You're gonna pay for what you did to Shark!
I'm not made of rubber!
Let my friend go!
- Let him go! - Little creeps!
Let him go!
Filo, use the hammer!
Not on me, dummy, on him!
0h, right.
Back off, greaseball.
I can't get closer! He'll hit me!
Give me that.
The slingshot!
Grab it, Zap.
Hum/-
You're useless.
Open this gate immediately.
Open ¡t!
Matilde, sweetheart.
Open this gate right now...
Or what, Falconetti?
You'll tell my parents?
Let's go, boys.
I think Falconetti has yet to fully understand
the true nature of this place
and ¡ts rules.
I think he'd better go straight to the Meditation Room.
He can reflect on his behavior there.
Meditate on this, Falconetti.
I didn't know you were so good with a hammer.
It's Hope's game. You have to whack the marbles.
Come on, Micro.
I took one of their toys.
Give ¡t to me.
What are you going to do with it?
Play-
What's this?
This wasn't drawn on the map.
If it's not there, ¡t never was.
- I never make mistakes. - Look.
- The rubber duckie! - She's right!
Okay, it's obvious.
We need to climb down, grab the duckie,
then cross to the other side on that rope.
Piece of cake.
Micro, what are you doing?
You'll kill yourself!
- Come back, it's dangerous! - No.
- I won't kill myself. - Come back here!
Micro, don't...
- Are you stupid? - Come back!
Micro!
Micro, this ¡s scary!
I'm small and lively,
I move with ease...
Who am I?
Me!
Careful...!
I can shoot ¡f you want.
I'm good with a slingshot.
There's a trick.
For better aim, close one eye.
Som/-
Come on, sir.
Don't let ¡t get you down.
Will you shut up?
Micro!
Stop moving!
You'll never make it.
Hold on, I'm coming.
Stay put, Superman.
- Everything ¡s under control... - Careful...
Please, be very careful.
All I need ¡s a little
atomic propulsion.
This ¡s for you.
No, Micro...
Don't move.
Banzai!
Help, it's not moving!
Guys!
Micro, hold on. I'm coming to get you.
Don't let go, okay?
What ¡s ¡t doing?
Help!
- The duck wants to kill me! - Micro, don't let go!
Hold on tight!
Don't let go, okay?
- Help! - Use your other hand!
Give ¡t some bread or something!
Help, I'm gonna die!
Kill me, I'm dizzy!
An invisible trampoline!
Yahoo!
Please...
Let me try. Please! You'll get us all killed!
Let me try! Please...
Guys, there's a treasure waiting for us, remember?
Filo, hurry up. You're always falling behind.
- Sorry! - We're gonna do it.
We're gonna get Hope's diamonds!
What will they be like? Really big?
Yeah, as big as a wall.
Mommy!
Shut up!
I don't want to die!
I know what ¡t is.
It's a false wall.
No!
This one ¡s real!
Don't leave me here!
Don't hang on me, you brat!
What are you doing, you idiot?
I don't understand. It says there's a door here.
It's over!
They forgot to build it. We blew ¡t!
We have to make the door!
Come on.
We have to keep going.
Hello?
Is anybody home?
Sebastian isn't here.
We must have overlooked something.
- We had to make a door, right? - And we did.
What ¡f it's missing something?
It's missing a handle.
The steering wheel.
I hope ¡t works. This ¡s the last one.
Where are the diamonds?
Yeah.
This ¡s all very nice and pretty,
but where's the treasure?
We're looking at it.
These are his toys. Hope's childhood toys.
His most precious treasure of all.
Then there are no diamonds.
Stop, stop. What do you mean there are no diamonds?
No diamonds?
What do you mean, no diamonds?
What ¡s all this?
Where ¡s Hope's treasure?
Right there.
Can I have a hug?
Bravo, Hope, bravo!
Even in death you kept playing your stupid games, you old lunatic!
That's why you hated him and made up all those lies about him!
Because he stayed a child and you never got to be one!
Yes, I was a child! But ¡t was his fault
my father thought I was disgusting and useless!
That's why I reopened this damn school
to turn ¡t into something my father could be proud of!
If your father wanted this to be a jail for children,
don't worry. He must be very proud of you.
Perhaps.
Now I'm going to betray my principles.
I'm going to let you play.
In fact, I'm going to let you stay here, surrounded by toys.
Forever.
Let's go.
But... we can't do that.
You can't leave them here.
Are you coming or staying?
You're staying!
He seems a little upset.
Wait!
Don't leave us here!
Please, open the door!
Guys, we have to find a way out.
All the rooms had an entrance and an exit.
That's right. There has to be one here too.
Look for another door.
Please, open the door...
Does anyone else think he's crying too loud?
- My head ¡s going to explode! - I don't get it.
There has to be something.
What could ¡t be? We've checked everything.
There's nothing but toys in here.
Wait.
Here, on the plaque.
Something isn't right.
What?
The toys.
Give me the toys.
Sure, something's going to happen now, right?
Something always does.
See? Like I was saying...
