Hey Arnold Wiki

Boy howdy, this is gonna be

the best day at Dinoland ever.

Gee, you said a mouthful, pal.

What do you

want to ride first?

Let's ride the Dino-whirl.

Let's go to the food cave

and eat prehistoric pie

'till we puke.

Hey, look, let's ride

the Pterodactyl egg cups.

I just love them egg cups.

Yeah, let's go!

Forget it, guys. We can't go.

Huh? Why not?

Because, Arnold,

look who's on the ride.

Eugene, the living jinx.

Oh, come on.

He's just a regular kid

like you and me

and everybody else.

Oh, yeah?

Take a good look, Arnold.

(GROANS)

(YELLING)

(SHAKILY) I'm okay.

Face it, Arnold.

There's no doubt about it.

Eugene's a walkin'-talkin'

pirouettin' lulu of

a big ol' hangin' jinx.

(GROWLING)

Well, are you wusses

ready for the ultimate

Dinoland challenge?

You mean the newly refurbished

Tyranto Scare-Us Rex?

I'm game if you guys are.

(ALL EXCLAIMING IN AGREEMENT)

EUGENE: I'm game too, guys.

We can all go together,

it'll be great.

Come on, guys,

if you don't line up now

you'll miss your chance

to get a seat.

Aren't you guys coming?

Are you kidding?

Not with the all time jinx

of the century Eugene.

But Eugene's our friend.

What's your point?

We should stick by him.

Shouldn't we?

Oh, criminy,

I smell a speech

about virtues

and nobility coming on.

Helga, I just think

it's stupid

not to go on a ride

you're all dying to go on

just because Eugene's on it.

Arnold's got a point,

you guys.

It is a little petty

of us not to go.

So does that mean

you're coming?

Are you crazy?

Of course not,

we'd be k*lled for sure.

I'm going.

Don't do it, Arnold!

Whatever you do, he's a jinx.

Stinky, I'm getting

on the roller coaster

and I'm going to prove

once and for all

that Eugene is not a jinx.

Arnold, if you don't

make it back,

can I have your tokens?

I'm gonna make

it back, Harold.

Eugene and I are gonna ride

the Tyranno Scare-Us Rex

and nothing bad

is gonna happen.

So, can I have your tokens?

(SIGHS)

Yeah!

Thanks for coming

with me, Arnold.

I'm sure we're going to

have a really great time.

Sure, Eugene.

It's gonna be great.

He's a bold kid.

He's a goner.

He's a saint,

he gave me his tokens.

(ARNOLD AND EUGENE SCREAMING)

We're going all the way

to the top this time, Arnold.

Uh-huh.

When we reach the top,

we'll pause for a few seconds,

then, we'll plunge through

the two-headed tunnel,

shoot into the final loop,

and then, the ride's over.

ARNOLD: Great.

I'm too nervous to watch,

I need some pie.

Where are my tokens?

Give me my tokens!

(MIST WHOOSHING)

Oh, no.

Hey, this must be

a new feature of the ride

they never told us about.

Gee, Arnold, you don't think

we're stuck, do you?

Of course not.

(SOFTLY) Move.

Please move.

Oh, I'm sure everything's

going to be fine.

The Dinoland people

are probably taking care

of the problem right now.

Sure they are.

We'll be rolling

in no time.

OPERATOR: (OVER MEGAPHONE)

We have a slight

mechanical problem.

Nothin' to worry about.

EUGENE: We're okay up here.

I have my favorite kind

of fruit fold up

and there's plenty of

mist to keep us cool.

Ah, we'll be fine.

OPERATOR: We'll get you

rollin' in no time.

EUGENE:

Oh, they always say that.

Oh, like the time

I was stuck in the elevator

at the library,

or the time I was trapped

in the helicopter

at the air and space museum,

but this is the first time

I've ever been stuck

on a roller coaster.

Yeah, well, um,

don't worry, Eugene.

Oh, I'm not worried. Besides,

we have such a great view

from up here.

Look, isn't it great?

STINKY: We all said it.

They're doomed.

HAROLD: Mm-hmm.

How's it lookin'?

Pretty bad.

I can't get the cars to start

or the mist to stop.

They're in deep doo-doo, huh?

Real deep.

Hey, everything's fine, boys.

We have the problem

figured out and it's just

a matter of minutes

till you're safely

on the ground.

Think they bought it?

Someday, Arnold,

we'll look back

on this and laugh.

(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY) Yeah.

And besides, the man said

we'd be on the ground

in a few minutes.

Eugene, that was an hour ago.

Ah, don't worry.

If there's any more delay,

they'll just bring in

a cherry picker.

Boys, you're doing great.

I just wanted to

let you know that

we're bringing in

a cherry picker to rescue you.

It'll be here in no time.

See, Arnold, in no time.

I've only been in

a cherry picker once.

It was fun.

They rescued me from the nose

to the Statue of Justice

in the harbor.

I thought they got you down

with a fire ladder.

No, that was the second time.

The first time

they used a cherry picker.

Oh, yeah.

You know,

I was kinda surprised

you decided to come

on the roller coaster

with me, Arnold.

Why did you?

Well...

Because no one else would,

and you didn't want me

to feel bad?

Well, sort of.

That's so nice of you.

You're a real pal.

Especially considering

my being so unlucky and all.

I don't know what

you're talking about, Eugene.

It's okay, Arnold.

You don't have to pretend.

I know what

everyone says about me.

They all call me

a big jinx, don't they?

Nobody says that, Eugene.

Come on, Arnold.

I've heard it my whole life.

I've always tried to

look on the bright side,

but now that

we're stuck up here,

I guess it's time for me

to admit the truth.

(FIRE ENGINE SIRENS WAILING)

I am a jinx.

Eugene, you're not a jinx.

No matter what I do

something always goes wrong.

I just can't do

anything right.

SID: Can I talk

into the bull horn?

Sorry, it's against

Dinoland rules.

But we want to

reassure our friends

that we're here

and thinking of them.

Okay, but just this once.

Hey, Arnold!

Didn't I tell you Eugene

was the living jinx?

Yeah, and you said

you were going to prove

that he weren't. Told ya.

Can you see my house

from there?

Give me that!

EUGENE:

It's peaceful up here.

I like the view, and I've

always liked dinosaurs.

And if I get scared,

which I'm not,

I can always sing

the "Itsy Bitsy Spider" song

to cheer myself up.

The "Itsy Bitsy Spider" song?

You know,

♪ The itsy bitsy spider

Went up the waterspout

Come on, Arnold,

sing it with me.

No, Eugene.

♪ Down came the rain

And washed the spider out

Come on, Arnold,

you know you want to.

(SIGHS)

♪ Out came the sun

♪ And dried up all the rain

♪ And the itsy bitsy spider

Went up the spout again ♪

Hey, look, the cherry picker.

See, Arnold,

we're going to be fine.

Hello, boys.

My name is Lucky.

I'm a fireman,

and I've come to save you.

Did you hear that, Arnold?

A fireman named Lucky

is going to save us.

I just want to assure you

that I've got everything

under control.

Nothing can go wrong.

(BUZZING)

No, mercy, no.

No, no, not again.

Is there a problem, Lucky?

Of course not.

Everything's fine.

There's no problems

when Lucky's around.

(PANICKING) Oh, no!

Man, look what

Eugene's jinx did now.

It stopped

that old cherry picker

right in mid-air.

Let me get this straight.

We have two kids trapped

on top of the world's

highest roller coaster,

and now the cherry picker

that's supposed to

rescue them is stuck.

What are you two boobs

gonna do about it?

Well, there's

a professional fireman

on board the cherry picker,

he can talk to

your little friends

and keep them calm.

(SHAKILY) I don't

want to fall.

I'll be crushed like a bug.

Please, someone, please.

Don't worry, Lucky.

Someone will be up

to save us in no time.

(SOBBING) "No time"

doesn't mean anything.

They just say that

when they have no idea

how long it'll take

to really save you.

The truth is

we're all gonna fall

and be crushed like bugs.

If you're scared,

I know something

that can calm you down.

What?

♪ Out came the sun

♪ And dried up all the rain

♪ And the itsy bitsy spider

Went up the spout again ♪

Doesn't that make you

feel better, Lucky?

A little.

(GROANS)

Hold on, Lucky!

Eugene, there's

a rope behind you.

If you can attach it

to the cherry picker platform,

we can use it

to pull Lucky over to us.

Gee, I don't know if that's

such a good idea, Arnold.

You can do it.

Tie the rope into a lasso

and throw it

over the platform.

But what if

something bad happens?

What if he falls

or I drop the rope?

I mean, after all I'm a jinx.

Eugene, you can do this.

Please, let me do

something right.

Just this once

let me not be a jinx.

Oh, please, hurry.

Pull it tight.

That's it, Eugene.

(GRUNTS)

Thank you. Oh, thank you.

Arnold, I did it.

I saved Lucky.

And nothing went wrong.

I knew you could do it.

I got it.

EUGENE: Hey, we're moving.

LUCKY: Moving? Thank God.

Now, we have a nice,

slow, safe ride

down to the ground.

Nothing can go...

(SCREAMING) Wrong.

(KIDS CHEERING)

Willikers, you really

surprised us, Eugene.

GERALD: You da man, Eugene.

Hey, you want to go

on the Mr. Gator ride with us?

Sure, guys. I'd love to.

(HAROLD LAUGHS)

(EUGENE GROANS)

Eugene!

(EUGENE SCREAMING)

I'm okay!

I'm okay!

Oh, my God.

Help me, please.

Help!
