Sprig: Did you see that sign? We've officially left the valley. This is the most exciting thing that's ever happened to anyone. Aren't you excited? I'm excited Anne, Sub-Zero. You should be more excited.

Sub-Zero: We're excited Sprig.

Anne: We're excited. You know, it's just, there's a lot riding on this trip for us, and I wanna keep my expectations in... What?

Anne, Sprig, Sub-Zero & Polly:	Whoa!

Anne: It's amazing. It's majestic. It's... hurting my eyes.

She rubs her eye

Sub-Zero: Yeah, but I'm gonna this mask

Sub-Zero remove his mask and breathe in

Breathe in and sighs

Sub-Zero: Smell like sunshine and clean air.

Sprig: It's even better than I could've dreamed. Full speed ahead, Hop Pop. Keep driving and never look back.

Hop Pop: Hold on, Sprig. Look back here for a second. Now that we're out of the valley, things can get dangerous fast. So... from now on we're gonna follow Hop Pop's Rules of the Road. By me, Hop Pop.

Anne, Sprig, Sub-Zero & Polly: [groan]

Anne: Another huge book? 

Sub-Zero: Seriously?

Hop Pop: You kids got a problem with books? Why, without books...

Anne, Sprig, Sub-Zero & Polly: "...our civilization would crumble to nothingness."

Hop Pop: The only way we'll get to Newtopia in one piece is if we follow these rules. Like this one here. Rule number 98: "Never strike a heroic pose on the fwagon." It's a sign of hubris that invites disaster.

Hop Pop: That should keep your sense of adventure in check. All right, kids, let's stick to the rules, and we should have a safe and completely uneventful trip. Okay, thanks. Byeee!

Sprig: Man, this stinks. Blap. All those adventures out there, and we're stuck in here with these dumb rules.

Anne: Not much we can do. My dad was the same way back home. 

Sub-Zero: One time we drove to the Grand Canyon and didn't stop once.

Sprig: Well, if anyone can figure out how to have fun with these rules, it's us.

All: Newtopia, here we come!

Hop Pop: Road rule number 29: "No shouting." Marauders will follow the sound and steal your skin.

All sighs

He gasps

Sprig: A rainbow waterfall! Oh, we got to pull over.
