Muntz Nabs His Monster
- Back on The Spirit of Adventure, the wet dog pack tells Muntz that everything was Dug’s fault. Jerks. Muntz locates Dug using the airship’s GPS.
- Meanwhile, Carl and Russell drag the house through the jungle under the cover of night. Kevin sits on the front porch, nursing her bloodied leg.
- Russell and Carl have a heart-to-heart. Rather, Russell talks and Carl listens.
- The wilderness isn’t quite like what Russell expected; his dad made it sound really easy.
- Then Russell tells Carl that his dad used to go to all of his Wilderness Explorer meetings. Afterwards, they’d get ice cream at Fentons, sit on the curb, and count the red and blue cars. “That might sound boring, but I think the boring stuff is the stuff I remember the most,” Russell says. Somebody hug this kid, STAT!
- Suddenly, Kevin’s house comes into view. They made it! Kevin takes off for home, just as Muntz’s monstrous airship comes into view and drops a net on Kevin.
- Muntz emerges from his airship, lantern in hand. While Carl struggles to cut Kevin free, Muntz breaks his lantern against Carl’s house, setting it ablaze.
- Carl rushes to his burning house, and the pack carries Kevin up the ramp into Muntz’s blimp. As Carl puts the fire out, Muntz flies away.
- Russell complains that Carl gave Kevin away, and Carl loses it. He wants nothing to do with Russell—or Dug, for that matter—and proclaims that he’s going to Paradise Falls, even if it kills him.
