Lilo Pelekai

Every Thursday, I take Pudge the Fish a peanut butter sandwich.

Leave me alone to die.

[meeting Cobra Bubbles; suspicious] You don't look like a social worker.

Yeah. She disciplines me real good. Sometimes five times a day... with bricks.

I'M ALREADY IN MY ROOM!

We're a broken family, aren't we?

Not better than him. He can talk. Say "hello".

It's nice to live on an island with no large cities. [Stitch has a breakdown] Are you okay?

Elvis Presley was a model citizen. I've compiled a list of his traits for you to practice. Number one is dancing. [takes out a hula skirt]

[as Stitch lifts her pillow, revealing the photo of her and Nani's deceased parents] That's us before. It was rainy and they went for a drive. What happened to yours? I hear you cry at night. Do you dream about them? I know that's why you wreck things and push me. Our family's little now and we don't have many toys. But if you want, you could be part of it. You could be our baby, and we'd raise you to be good. "O'hana" means family. Family means nobody gets left behind. But if you want to leave, you can. I'll remember you, though. I remember everyone that leaves.

Dialogue

GALACTIC FEDERATION HEADQUARTERS PLANET TURO [text displayed at the beginning of the movie]

[Crowds of creatures line the walls in a cavernous blue hall]

Grand Councilwoman: [stepping into the light] Read the charges.

Captain Gantu: Dr. Jumba Jookiba, lead scientist of Galaxy Defense Industries, you stand before this council, accused of illegal genetic experimentation. [The experiment inside the machine is brought in]

Grand Councilwoman: How do you plead?

Jumba: Not guilty. My experiments are only theoretical, completely within legal boundaries.

Grand Councilwoman: We believe you actually created something.

Jumba: Created something? Ha! But that would be irresponsible and unethical. I would never, ever... [626 is revealed] ...make more than one. [626 growls and squirms around in the canister, causes the entire alien council to quiver in fear.]

Captain Gantu: What is that monstrosity?

Jumba: Monstrosity?! What you see before you is the first of a new species. I call it, "Experiment 626". He is bullet-proof, fire-proof, and can think faster than supercomputer. He can see in the dark and move objects 3,000 times his size. His only instinct: to destroy everything he touches! [laughs crazily]

Grand Councilwoman: So, it is a monster?

Jumba: Ah, just a little one.

Captain Gantu: It is an affront to nature. It must be destroyed!

Grand Councilwoman: Calm yourself, Captain Gantu. Perhaps it can be reasoned with. Experiment 626, give us some sign you understand any of this. Show us that there is something inside you that is good.

626: [clears throat] Meega nala kweesta! [The whole council gasps in shock.]

Grand Councilwoman: So naughty.

[626 laughs wildly]

Jumba: I didn't teach him that.

Captain Gantu: Place that idiot "scientist" under arrest!

Jumba: I'd prefer to be called "evil genius!" [gets taken away and thrown into the prison below]

Grand Councilwoman: And as for that abomination, [626 licks at the canister] it is the flawed product of a deranged mind. It has no place among us. Captain Gantu, take him away.

Captain Gantu: With pleasure. [cracks his knuckles]

PRISON TRANSPORT DURGON [text displayed at the beginning of the movie]

Captain Gantu: [626 growls at the spaceship] Uncomfortable? Oh, good! The council has banished you to exile on a desert asteroid. [smiles tauntingly] So, relax, enjoy the trip and don't get any ideas. These guns are locked onto your genetic signature. They won't shoot anyone but you. [points at 626 on the forehead. 626 lashes out and bites Gantu's finger] Ow! [gets his gun out] Why, you...

Hammerhead Guard: May I remind the captain that he is on duty.

Captain Gantu: Secure the cell!

Hammerhead Guard: Aye, Captain.

[Captain Gantu walks away]

Computer: Captain on deck.

Captain Gantu: All ahead full. Do... Does this, uh, look infected to you?

[The spaceship flies off. 626 looks at the guns whirring and gurgling]

Hammerhead Guard: Oh! Quiet, you.

[626 growls and spits his spit at something and the guns fire]

First Officer Ombit: Gunfire in the cell bay!

Captain Gantu: Open a channel. What's going on down there? Lieutenant, respond!

[626 growls and spits his spit at the hammerhead guard and the guns fire]

First Officer Ombit: He's loose on Deck C!

Captain Gantu: Red alert. Seal off the deck! [626 attacking and the guns fire] Security, converge on door seven! Deadly force authorized. Fire on sight! I repeat: Fire on sight!

Security Guard: There he is!

Alien Guard: [626 attacks the crook] Security to bridge.

Intercom: It's in the ventilation system.

Captain Gantu: [guns fire getting crook] He's headed for the power... [turns his off] grid. [loud thud and whooshing] What was that?

Ensign Getco: I don't think he's on the ship anymore.

First Officer Ombit: Confirmed. He's taken a police cruiser.

Ensign Getco: [alarm beeping] Yeah, he took the red one.

626: [horn honking] Yee-haw! [rocket flies off] Hmm?

Autopilot: That's it! We got it. We got it!

Computer: [626 shouting and laughing] Hyperdrive activated. System charging.

First Officer Ombit: He's engaged his H-drive!

Computer: Warning, guidance is not functional.

Captain Gantu: Pursuit Commander, that crazy trog is about to make a jump!

Autopilot: Break formation! Get clear of that ship!

Computer: Navigation failure. Do not engage hyper...

[626 escapes in a red police cruiser and reaches hyperspace]

Captain Gantu: [sighs] Get me Galactic Control.

Grand Councilwoman: [storms in the base] WHERE IS HE?!

Alien #1: He's still in hyperspace.

Grand Councilwoman: Where will he exit?

Alien #2: Calculating now. Quadrant 17, section 005, area 51. A planet called...E-arth.

Grand Councilwoman: I want an expert on this planet in here now! [Monitor shows 626's police cruiser heading towards planet Earth] What is that?

Alien #3: Water. Most of the planet is covered in it.

Grand Councilwoman: He won't survive in water. His molecular density is too great. [other aliens watch as 626's police cruiser moves closer] No. [monitor shows that Experiment 626's police cruiser will eventually land on the Hawaiian Island of Kauai] Of course. How much time do we have?

Alien #2: We have projected his landing at three hours, 42 minutes.

Grand Councilwoman: Oh, we have to gas the planet.

Agent Pleakley: Hold it! Hold everything! Earth is a protected wildlife reserve. Yeah, we've been using it to rebuild the mosquito population which, need I remind you, is an endangered species!

Grand Councilwoman: Am I to assume you are the expert?

Agent Pleakley: [laughing modestly] Oh, I don't know about expert. [clears throat] Agent Pleakley at your service.

Grand Councilwoman: Can we not simply destroy the island?

Agent Pleakley: No! Crazyhead! The mosquito's food of choice, primitive humanoid life forms, have colonies all over that planet.

Grand Councilwoman: Are they intelligent?

Agent Pleakley: No, but they're very delicate. In fact, every time an asteroid strikes their planet they have to begin life all over. [sighs] It's fascinating, isn't it? With this, I've been able to study...

Grand Councilwoman: What if our military forces just landed there?

Agent Pleakley: Well, that'd be a bad idea! These are extremely simple creatures, miss. Landing there would create mass mayhem and planet-wide panic!

Grand Councilwoman: A quiet capture would require an understanding of 6-2-6 that we do not possess! Who, then, Mr. Pleakley, would you send for his extraction?

Agent Pleakley: Does he have a brother? Close grandmother, perhaps? [angry shouting, then insane jabbering] Friendly cousin? Neighbor with a beard?

[In Jumba's cell after Experiment 626 escaped. Jumba is enraged while reading the newspaper, tears it to shreds and eats the newspaper while angrily growling, but stops just as the Grand Councilwoman and Pleakley enter]

Jumba: [chuckles] He got away?

Grand Councilwoman: I'm sure this comes as no surprise to you.

Jumba: I designed this creature for to be unstoppable.

Grand Councilwoman: Which is precisely why you must now bring him back.

Jumba: What, me?

Grand Councilwoman: And to reward you, we are willing to trade your freedom for his capture.

Jumba: [sighs] 626 will not come easily. Maybe direct hit from plasma cannon might stun him long enough to--

Grand Councilwoman: [interrupting, exasperated] Plasma cannon granted. Do we have a bargain, Dr. Jumba? [Jumba grunts in agreement]

Agent Pleakley: B-B-But it's a delicate planet! [in a sing-song voice] Who's going to control him?

Grand Councilwoman: You will. [leaves]

Agent Pleakley: Very good, Your Highness. I-- I didn't quite-- [realizes; scared] Uh, you're not joking!

Jumba: [to Pleakley] So, tell me, my little one-eyed one. On what poor, pitiful, defenseless planet has my "monstrosity" been unleashed?

Chorus: Mahalo nui 'ia ke Ali'i wahine / 'O Lili'ulani 'O ka Wohi kū / Ka pipi'o mai o ke ānuenue / Nā waiho'olu'u a hālike 'ole / E nānā nā maka i ke ao malama / Mai Hawai'i ākea i Kaua'i...| 'O Kalākaua he inoa / 'O Ka pua mae'ole i ka lā / Ka pua maila i ka mauna / I ke kuahiwi 'o Mauna Kea / Ke 'ā maila i Kīlauea / Mālamalama i Wahinekapu / A ka luna o Uwēkahuna / I ka pali kapu o Ka'auea...| Ea mai ke ali'i kia manu / Ua wehi i ka hulu o ka mamo / Ka pua nani a'o Hawai'i / 'O Kalākaua he inoa...| 'O Kalākaua he inoa / 'O Ka pua mae'ole i ka lā / Ka pua maila i ka mauna / I ke kuahiwi 'o Mauna Kea / Ke 'ā maila i Kīlauea.

[song fades]

Kids: Whoa! Whoa! [Lilo, Mertle, Elena, Teresa, and Yuki slip in the puddles, one by one]

Moses Puloki: Stop, stop. Lilo, why are you all wet?

Lilo Pelekai: It's sandwich day. [Moses looks confused; sighs and confesses] Every Thursday, I take Pudge the Fish a peanut butter sandwich.

Moses Puloki: [still confused] Pudge is a fish?

Lilo Pelekai: [continuing] And today we were out of peanut butter! So, I asked my sister what to give him, and she said a tuna sandwich! I can't give Pudge tuna! [whispers] Do you know what tuna is?

Moses Puloki: [hesitantly] Fish?

Lilo Pelekai: [ticked off] IT'S FISH!!!!!! If I gave Pudge tuna, I'd be an abomination! I'm late, because I had to go to the store, and get peanut butter, 'cause all we have is, IS STINKIN' TUNA!!

Moses Puloki: Lilo, Lilo. Why is this so important?

Lilo Pelekai: [calmly] Pudge controls the weather. [Everyone exchanges surprised looks at each other]

Mertle Edmonds: You're crazy. [Lilo angrily jumps on her, kicks her in the balls and punches her, then the other girls run away screaming]

Moses Puloki: [worried] No! Please! Please! [picks Lilo up] Everybody, calm down! [puts her down; Mertle cries] Girls. [in Hawaiian] It's okay. [in English; calmly] Shh. [to Lilo; sternly] Lilo--

Lilo Pelekai: I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I won't do it again!

Moses Puloki: Maybe we should call your sister.

Lilo Pelekai: [worried] No! I'll be good! I want to dance. I practiced. I just want to dance. I practiced.

Mertle Edmonds: [holds her balls and notices invisible bite mark on her arm] Ew, she bit me.

Elena, Teresa, and Yuki: Ew!

[Fade outside the hula school where Lilo is sitting on the porch and Mertle and her friends leave]

Moses Puloki: [crouches down to Lilo's height] I called your sister. She said to wait for her here on the porch. We'll try again on Sunday. [gets up and heads back inside]

[Moses leaves as Lilo looks at Mertle and her gang leaving while she is alone. Meanwhile, Mertle and her gang are walking home as she shows them where Lilo bit her. Mertle is now wearing a short-sleeved green shirt that doesn't cover her bare belly (and her belly button), a pair of blue shorts and light green flip-flop sandals]

Mertle Edmonds: [holds the ice pack on her testicles] Does this look infected to you?

Elena, Teresa, and Yuki: Yeah.

Mertle Edmonds: You better not have rabies.

Yuki: If you have rabies the dogcatcher is going to have to cut...

Lilo Pelekai: Are you going to play dolls?

Mertle Edmonds: You don't have a doll.

Lilo Pelekai: This is Scrump. [Mertle and her friends gasp and cower] I made her, but her head is too big. So I pretend a bug laid eggs in her ears, and she's upset because she only has a few more days to...

[The others have ditched her and left; Lilo drops Scrump in annoyance and starts off for home alone, before coming back to pick her back up before leaving]

[In the front steps of the school as a young woman comes in. Her name is Nani, Lilo's big sister and legal guardian. She wears short-sleeved t-shirt with her exposed belly (and belly button), jeans cut into shorts and big hiking boots. Nani arrives to find Lilo missing]

Nani Pelekai: Lilo! Lilo? Lilo? [knowing instantly what this means] Oh, no. [she runs through bushes, looking quite angry] You better be home. [runs down the sidewalk, passing a parking lot where a shiny sports car comes out. The driver stops when Nani races by. She jumps up, dodging out of the way; angrily shouts] Hey! Watch where you're going! [brutally kicks the car bumper and runs off again] Stupidhead!

[Nani heads back to the Pelekai house and finds the front door locked]

Nani Pelekai: Oh, Lilo. Lilo! Open the door, Lilo!

Lilo Pelekai: [from inside] Go away.

Nani Pelekai: [pokes her head through the doggy door and finds her little sister, laying on the floor with a record player sitting next to her] Lilo, we don't have time for this.

Lilo Pelekai: Leave me alone to die.

Nani Pelekai: Come on, Lilo, the social worker's gonna be here any minute.

Elvis Presley: [singing] You still can find some room / For brokenhearted lovers / To cry there in their gloom...| They'll be so lonely / They're so lonely, they could die...| Now, the bellhop's tears keep flowin'.

Nani Pelekai: You are so finished when I get in there! Oh, I'm going to stuff you in the blender, push purée, then bake you into a pie and feed it to the social worker! And when he says, This is great. What's your secret? I'm going to say, love and nurturing. Hi. You must be the...

Cobra Bubbles: The stupid head.

Nani Pelekai: You know, I'm really sorry about that, and if I'd known who you were, of course I never would've... I can pay for that.

Cobra Bubbles: It's a rental, are you the guardian in question?

Nani Pelekai: Yes! I'm Nani. Nice to meet you, Mister...

Cobra Bubbles: Bubbles.

Nani Pelekai: Mr. Bubbles, that's a strange...

Cobra Bubbles: Yes, I know. Are you going to invite me in, Nani?

Nani Pelekai: I thought we could sit out here and talk.

Cobra Bubbles: I don't think so.

Nani Pelekai: Right.

Elvis Presley: [singing] Although it's always crowded...

Nani Pelekai: This way.

Elvis Presley: [singing] You still can find some room / For brokenhearted lovers / To cry away their gloom / Where they get so, they get so lonely, baby...

Nani Pelekai: Uh, wait here.

[Nani walks to the front door at Cobra]

Lilo Pelekai: [Off-screen] Hey!

Nani Pelekai: [opens the door] So, lemonade?

Cobra Bubbles: Do you often leave your sister home alone?

Nani Pelekai: No, never. Oh, well, except for just now. I had to run to the store to get some... Oh!

Cobra Bubbles: You left the stove on while you were out?

Nani Pelekai: [closes the pan] Low heat! Just a simmer. Mmm! It's coming along great.

Lilo Pelekai: [to Nani] I found that this morning.

Nani Pelekai: Lilo, there you are. Honey face, this is Mr. Bubbles.

Cobra Bubbles: [lowers his hand for Lilo to shake] Nice to meet you.

Lilo Pelekai: [tilts her head, reading something on his knuckles] Your knuckles say "Cobra." [Cobra withdraws his hand, cracking his knuckles, and kneels down to her height] "Cobra Bubbles." You don't look like a social worker.

Cobra Bubbles: I'm a special classification.

Lilo Pelekai: [suspiciously] Did you ever kill anyone?

Cobra Bubbles: [changing the subject] We're getting off the subject. Let's talk about you. Are you... happy?

Lilo Pelekai: [opens her mouth with a fake smile, then talks in response to her sister's pantomiming behind him] I'm adjusted. I eat four food groups and look both ways before crossing the street, and take long naps, [Nani holds up her fist in triumph, but Lilo misreads the pantoming] and get disciplined. [Nani cringes at her fist in a sign of what is supposed to say "Doing well"]

Cobra Bubbles: Disciplined?

Lilo Pelekai: Yeah. She disciplines me real good. Sometimes five times a day... with bricks.

Cobra Bubbles: Bricks?

Lilo Pelekai: Uh-huh, in a pillowcase.

Nani Pelekai: Okay, that's enough sugar for you. Why don't you run along, you little cutie? The other social workers just thought she was a scream. Thirsty?

Cobra Bubbles: [Nani opens the fridge door] Let me illuminate to you the precarious situation in which you have found yourself. I am the one they call when things go wrong, and things have indeed gone wrong.

[Cobra confused. The camera moves with Lilo putting his spoons in a pickle-juice glass and closes the lid, then the shaking his pickle-juice glass]

Lilo Pelekai: My friends need to be punished.

[Nani groans]

Cobra Bubbles: Call me next time you're left here alone.

Lilo Pelekai: Yep.

Cobra Bubbles: [To Nani] In case you're wonderin', this did not go well. [effortlessly pulls the door open hard, lets the nails clatter to the floor] You have three days to change my mind. [closes the door and leaves while Nani quickly turns to Lilo with an angrily look; Lilo screams in horror, repeatedly and then starts runs as chases after her; tackles in the kitchen and she licks her arm]

Nani Pelekai: [disgustedly] EW!!! [angrily] LILO! [runs then stops and points to the laundry room and goes into said room. She sets a blanket on the floor, climbs on top of the dryer, and opens the door and slams it shut with her boot. Lilo quietly comes out before getting caught and is brought back to the hallway in the blanket while snarling like a tiger, then hisses like a cat; angrily grabs Lilo's arm tightly] Why didn't you wait at the school?! You were supposed to wait there! Lilo! Do you not understand? Do you want to be taken away? [Lilo doesn't reply back as her eyes tear up] Answer me!

Lilo Pelekai: No!

Nani Pelekai: No, you don't understand?

Lilo Pelekai: No!

Nani Pelekai: "No", what?

Lilo Pelekai: NOOOOO!! [hits the floor and grunts; muffled whining]

Nani Pelekai: [annoyed] Ohh! You're such a pain.

Lilo Pelekai: So, why don't you sell me and buy a rabbit instead?! [starts walking upstairs to her bedroom]

Nani Pelekai: At least the rabbit would behave better than you!

Lilo Pelekai: Go ahead, then you'll be happy, because it will be smarter than me, too!

Nani Pelekai: AND QUIETER!

Lilo Pelekai: You'll like it, 'cause it's stinky like YOU! [furiously enters her bedroom and angrily slams the door]

Nani Pelekai: [angrily] GO TO YOUR ROOM!!!!!!

Lilo Pelekai: [opens the door; angrily] I'M ALREADY IN MY ROOM!! [Lilo furiously slams the door again, Nani walks into to the living room, grabs a pillow off the couch and angrily screams in it, while Lilo is in her room doing the same in her pillow, then an off-screen dog barks]

[Later that night, Lilo is playing with Scrump in bed. Nani comes in with a plate of pizza.]

Nani Pelekai: [comes in; softly] Hey, I brought you some pizza, in case you were hungry.

Lilo Pelekai: [sadly] We're a broken family, aren't we?

Nani Pelekai: No. [places pizza slice on Lilo's nightstand] Maybe a little. Maybe a lot. I shouldn't have yelled at you.

Lilo Pelekai: We're sisters, it's our job.

Nani Pelekai: Yeah, well, from now on--

Lilo Pelekai: I like you better as a sister than a mom.

Nani Pelekai: Yeah?

Lilo Pelekai: [voice breaking] And you like me better as a sister than a rabbit, right? [sniffles]

Nani Pelekai: [picks up Lilo and gets on her bed; calmly] Oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Yes. Yes, I do.

Lilo Pelekai: [sniffles] I hit Mertle Edmonds today.

Nani Pelekai: You hit her?

Lilo Pelekai: Before I bit her.

Nani Pelekai: [shocked] You bit her. Lilo, you shouldn't--

Lilo Pelekai: People treat me different.

Nani Pelekai: They just don't know what to say. I'll tell you what. If you promise not to fight anymore, I promise not to yell at you, except on special occasions.

Lilo Pelekai: Tuesdays and bank holidays would be good.

Nani Pelekai: Yeah? Would that be good?

Lilo Pelekai: [giggles and notices the camera] Oh, my camera's full again. [whispers] Aren't they beautiful? [they look at the pictures Lilo took. The lamp suddenly turns off, and they both head for the window to see a flaming police cruiser falling from the sky.] A fallin' star! [the space police cruiser crashes with an explosion] I call it! Get out! [the lamp turns back on] Get out! I have to make a wish! [tries to push Nani out of her room] Can't you go any faster?!

Nani Pelekai: [dizzy; leans back] Oh, no! Gravity is increasing on me!

Lilo Pelekai: No, it's not!!

Nani Pelekai: It's too, Lilo, the same thing happened yesterday. [faints on top of Lilo]

Lilo Pelekai: [angrily] YOU ROTTEN SISTER, YOUR BUTT IS CRUSHING ME! WHY DO YOU ACT SO WEIRD?! [furiously slams the door on Nani's head; Nani peeks in to hear her wish] It's me again. I need someone to be my friend, someone who won't run away. Maybe send me an angel. The nicest angel you have.

[But what Nani and Lilo didn't realize that the "falling star" is actaully Stitch's police cruiser. Sitch comes out of the wreckage with sinister laughter and moves away from the fiery green glow. He looks around, sniffing the air. As he scurries across the road, a raindrop falls and he shoots. Another drop lands on his head as he shoots to the sky. Sheets of rain come down, Stitch hisses until he hears a deep croak from a bullfrog. He pokes his weapons until he was lit up by an oncoming lorry. 626 is hit by a truck, the three guys get out of each to see what happened]

Driver #1: What we when hit?! [he and the other men turn on their flashlights and investigate under the truck to see 626] There it is. It stay jammed under the fender. [626 passes out with his arm dangling, the drivers gasp in shock]

Driver #2: We better call somebody.

[Nani and Lilo are at an animal shelter to adopt a pet dog]

Nani Pelekai: [to shelter worker] We're looking for something that can defend itself. Something that won't die, something...sturdy, you know?

Lilo Pelekai: Like a lobster.

Nani Pelekai: Lilo, you lolo. Do we have a lobster door? No, we have a dog door. We are getting a dog. [626 sneaks out of the shelter, and avoids getting hit from plasma cannon]

Jumba: [off-screen] Ah-ha! So nice to see your pretty face again!

626: Jumba?

Rescue Lady: We need your name and address at the bottom of the form... The kennel's back this way.

Nani Pelekai: Go. Pick someone out.

Lilo Pelekai: Hello? Hello?!

Lilo Pelekai: Are there any animals in here? Hello! Hi.

626: Hoo, ha...Hi. [hugs her tightly]

Lilo Pelekai: [amazed] Wow! [Later in the lobby]

Rescue Lady: Oh, yes. Mmm-hmm. [Lilo comes back with 626] All of our dogs are adoptable. [sees 626; alarmed] EXCEPT THAT ONE! [runs and takes 626 away from Lilo]

Nani Pelekai: [pulls Lilo away from 626] What is that thing?

Rescue Lady: A dog, I think. But it was dead this morning!

Nani Pelekai: [confused] It was dead this morning?

Rescue Lady: We thought it was dead; it was hit by a truck!

Lilo Pelekai: I like him! Come here, boy!

[626 forcefully, against the rescue lady's grip, walks himself forward to get to Lilo as she calls him to her, climbing up onto Nani and Lilo's laps]

Nani Pelekai: [screams and pushes 626 away from her and Lilo; composes herself] Wouldn't you like a different dog?

Rescue Lady: [a bit breathless] We have better dogs, dear.

Lilo Pelekai: Not better than him. He can talk. Say "hello".

626: He-Hel--

Rescue Lady: Dogs can't talk, dear. [626 narrows his eyes and bares his teeth in frustration]

Lilo Pelekai: He did.

Nani Pelekai: Does it have to be this dog? [626 pants a few times before rolling his tongue out, sticking it up his nose and putting it back in his mouth, smacking his lips]

Lilo Pelekai: Yes. He's good. I can tell. [Later]

Rescue Lady: [filling out paperwork at the front desk] You'll have to think of a name for him.

[standing on a chair, 626 looks out the window]

Lilo Pelekai: His name is Stitch. [626, now known as Stitch, looks at Lilo]

Rescue Lady: Now, that's not a real name... [Nani shakes her head quickly and waves her hand as if to say "No! Don't say that!"] ...in...Iceland. But here, it's a good name. Stitch, it is. And there's a $2 license fee.

Lilo Pelekai: I want to buy him! [whispers] Can I borrow $2?

[With a semi-irritated look, Nani takes the money from the rescue lady and hands it to Lilo. Lilo then taps the money on her shoulder and hands it back to her, handing it to the shelter worker]

Rescue Lady: [stamps the adoption papers and hands the paper to Lilo with a friendly smile] He's all yours.

Jumba: [looks at Stitch through his scope] You're all mine.

Agent Pleakley: Well, what's he doing?

Jumba: Shh! Keep quiet. He's listening for us.

Agent Pleakley: [whispering] How good is his hearing? [Stitch turns his head] I mean, can he-- [Jumba angrily chokes him, Stitch opens the door and gets us outs]

Jumba: [turns on the red laser pointer at Stitch] Why don't you run? [slowly squeezes plasma cannon's trigger]

Stitch: Bark! Bark! Bark!

Lilo Pelekai: I'm coming, I'm coming! [hugs Stitch]

Agent Pleakley: [pushes Jumba's plasma gun away just as it fires] STOP! I have just determined the situation to be far too hazardous!

Jumba: [pushes Pleakley out of his way] Don't worry, I won't hit her.

Agent Pleakley: [plugs plasma cannon with his fingers] NO! That girl is part of the mosquito food chain. [hands Jumba his View-Master] Here, educate yourself.

Jumba: [incensed] Using that little girl for a shield. [angrily yells] THIS IS LOW, EVEN FOR YOU!

Stitch: Woo-hoo!

Jumba: Augh! [Pushes Pleakley out of his way again] Tear him apart with all both my hands!

Pleakley: [to Jumba] Have you lost your mind?!

Lilo Pelekai: What is it, Stitch?

Agent Pleakley: We cannot be seen!

Rescue Lady: [to Stitch] Bad dog, barkin' at nothing!

Agent Pleakley: You can't shoot, and you can't be seen. Look at you! You look like a monster. We have to blend in.

Nani Pelekai: Okay, I gotta get to work. Stick around town and stay out of the roads, okay? I'll meet you at 1:00.

Stitch: Hmm? Oh! Ah!

Nani Pelekai: Okay, I guess we should be going.

Lilo Pelekai: What about Stitch?

Lilo Pelekai: [sees Mertle, Teresa, and Yuki on their tricycles] My friends! [They scream and try to make a run for it, but Lilo approaches them]

Mertle Edmonds: [annoyed] What do you want?

Lilo Pelekai: I'm sorry I bit you, and pulled your hair, and punched you in the face.

Mertle Edmonds: Apology not accepted. Now get out of my way before I run you over. [screams as she sees Stitch crawls towards her]

Lilo Pelekai: I got a new dog. His name is Stitch.

Mertle Edmonds: That is the ugliest thing I have ever saw.

Teresa & Yuki: [simultaneously] Yeah.

Mertle Edmonds: Ew! Get it away from me! [Stitch gasps as he sees a disguised Jumba and Pleakley] I'm gonna get a disease! [shrieks as Stitch shoves her off her strike, and she wails as Lilo and Stitch escape] Somebody, do something!

Agent Pleakley: Oh, great! He's loose!

Jumba: His destructive programming is taking effect. He will be irresistibly drawn to large cities where he will back up sewers, reverse street signs, and steal everyone's left shoe.

Lilo Pelekai: It's nice to live on an island with no large cities. Are you okay?

Chorus: Doo-doo... Doo-doo...

Elvis Presley: [singing] You can shake an apple off an apple tree / Shake-a, shake-a, sugar, but you'll never shake me / Uh-uh-uh...

Chorus: Doo-doo-doo...

Elvis Presley: [singing] No, siree, uh-uh...

Nani Pelekai: Uh-uh.

Chorus: Doo-doo-doo... Doo-doo-doo...

Elvis Presley: [singing] I'm gonna stick like glue, stick because I'm / Stuck on you...| I'm gonna run my fingers, through your long, black hair...

Manager: [to Nani] Hey, Nani. Is that your dog?

Nani Pelekai: Uh...

Agent Pleakley: All is well. Please, go about your business. I'm okay.

Nani Pelekai: The head looks...swollen.

[Lilo, Stitch and Nani arrived home, after Nani "quit" her job by stopping Stitch from chewing on Pleakley's head]

Lilo Pelekai: Did you lose your job because of me and Stitch?

Nani Pelekai: Nah. The manager's a vampire and he wanted me to join his legion of the undead.

Lilo Pelekai: I knew it. [they enter the house] This is a great home. You'll like it a lot. [Nani turns on the light] See?

Nani Pelekai: [closes the door] Uh, Lilo?

Lilo Pelekai: Comfy. [Stitch pushes Lilo and tears the pillow] Hey!

Nani Pelekai: [angrily snatches the pillow from Stitch] Hey, what is the matter with you?!

Lilo Pelekai: Be careful of the little angel.

Nani Pelekai: [as Stitch curls himself into a ball rolls into the kitchen] It's not an angel, Lilo. I don't even think it's a dog. We just have to take him back.

Lilo Pelekai: He's just cranky because it's his bedtime.

Nani Pelekai: [off-screen; as Stitch enters the kitchen] He's creepy, Lilo. I won't sleep while he's loose in the house.

Lilo Pelekai: [off-screen] You're loose in the house all the time and I sleep just fine! [enters, sees Stitch messing with the blender] Hey, what are you doing? Stop that, Stitch!

Nani Pelekai: [enters] HEY! [angrily snatches the blender away and picks up a struggling Stitch] Look it, Lilo, he's obviously mutated from something else. We have to take him back!

Lilo Pelekai: He was an orphan, and we adopted him! What about O'Hana?!

Nani Pelekai: He hasn't been here that long.

Lilo Pelekai: Neither have I. Dad says O'Hana means family.

[Nani opens the door, then realizes what Lilo said and shuts the door]

Stitch: [puzzled] Huh?

Lilo Pelekai: O'hana means "family". Family means nobody gets left--

Nani Pelekai: Nobody gets left behind.

Lilo Pelekai: Or?

Nani Pelekai: Or forgotten. I know, I know. I hate it when you O'Hana against me.

Lilo Pelekai: [angrily sticks her tongue, Nani does the same and drops Stitch; she and Stitch then head upstairs to her bedroom] Don't worry, you can sleep right next to me. [Nani sighs and lies down on the couch]

Lilo Pelekai: [after Stitch builds a model of San Francisco and pretends to be a giant monster] No more caffeine for you.

[As Pleakley gets himself comfortable for the night, Jumba looks at Stitch through binoculars]

Jumba: [laughs in amusement] This little girl is wasting her time. 626 cannot be taught to ignore its destructive programming. Ooh! Push that over. [to Pleakley] What are you doing?

Agent Pleakley: [quickly takes his wig off] Nothing!

Jumba: Uh, say, I want to try it on.

Agent Pleakley: No!

Jumba: [angrily snatches his wig] Share! Let me try it on!

Agent Pleakley: Hey! Ow! You're just jealous 'cause I'm pretty! [notices a mosquito; gasps] Don't move. Look. A mosquito has chosen me as her perch. She's so beautiful. [more mosquitoes fly in] Look, another one. And another one! [a whole mosquito swarm flies in, covering him] Why, it is a whole flock, and they like me! They're nuzzling my flesh with their noses. Now, they're, um, they're-- [in alarm, he realizes the mosquitoes are sucking his blood; he screams painfully, offscreen]

Jumba: Now this is interesting.

Agent Pleakley: What?

Jumba: 626 was designed to be a monster; but now, he has nothing left to destroy. You see, I never gave him a greater purpose. What must it be like, to have nothing? Not even memories?

Lilo Pelekai: Nani? Nani.

Nani Pelekai: [wakes up] Yeah?

Lilo Pelekai: Look. [puts Stitch's claw on the record and opens Stitch's mouth to hear Elvis Presley's "Suspicious Minds", repeatedly opens and closes his mouth]

Elvis Presley: [from Stitch's mouth; singing] We can't go on together / With suspicious minds / And we can't build our dreams / On suspicious minds.

[Nani is surprised and confused about it, but hears a knock on the door, so she rushes out of her bed. She opens it to reveal Cobra Bubbles, and gasps in alarm]

Cobra Bubbles: Heard you lost your job.

Nani Pelekai: [as Stitch comes out with a dictionary] Well, uh, actually, I just quit that job because, you know, the hours are just not conducive to the challenges of raising a child. [Stitch viciously growls and violently chucks the dictionary at Cobra's face]

Cobra Bubbles: [grunts] HEY!

Nani Pelekai: [gasps; picks up Stitch] I am so sorry about that.

Cobra Bubbles: What is that thing? [Nani drops Stitch]

Lilo Pelekai: That's my puppy!

Cobra Bubbles: Really? [cracks his neck, to Nani; sternly] Thus far, you have been adrift in the sheltered harbor of my patience, but I cannot ignore you being jobless. Do I make myself clear?

Nani Pelekai: [understanding] Perfectly.

Cobra Bubbles: [to Lilo] And next time I see this dog, I expect it to be a model citizen. Capiche?

Lilo Pelekai: [confused] Uh, yes?

Cobra Bubbles: [to Nani] New job. [to Lilo; referring to Stitch] Model citizen. [puts on his sunglasses and the lens comes off] Good day. [leaves]

[Meanwhile, at the shore miles from Lilo's house]

Agent Pleakley: HELP! I don't like the ocean! [cut to the waves of the ocean; off-screen] AH! Oh, look, a friendly little dolphin. [coughs] They helped sailors in the war. And, uh-- No, it's a shark! It's a shark, and it ain't friendly! It looks like a dolphin. Tricky fish! Tricky fish! Oh, octopus, come and help me? [gets out of the ocean, with small squid on his face] An octo-octopus is worse than a shark! I hate this planet!? [Pleakley pulls the octopus out of his face and throws it out of sight, as he starts gasping for air. He lays next to Jumba, who had failed to capture Stitch.]

Jumba: Ohh.

Agent Pleakley: Whew!

Jumba: Little monster! [Pleakley's phone begins to ring, he gets it out, shakes water off and answers it.]

Agent Pleakley: Uh, Agent Pleakley here.

Grand Councilwoman: I have lost patience with you both. Have you captured 626 or not?

Agent Pleakley: Um...uh...uh--

Grand Councilwoman: Consider yourselves fired and prison bound. Your incompetence is nothing short of unspeakable. [hangs up]

Agent Pleakley: But, uh, mm-- [sobs]

Jumba: We're fired! Now we do it my way! [gets up to find Stitch]

Agent Pleakley: Your way? [sniffles] Oh, uh, wait!

[cut to alien headquarters]

Grand Councilwoman: It seems I have overestimated Jumber and Blinkley.

Captain Gantu: Uh, Jumba and Pleakley.

Grand Councilwoman: Whatever. The mission is in jeopardy. This could be your chance to redeem yourself, Captain Gantu. How soon will you be prepared to leave?

Captain Gantu: Immediately.

[Stitch wakes up in the jungle, hears a noise. He looks around. Then Jumba enters and laughs, but Stitch gasps.]

Jumba: Don't run. Don't make me shoot you. You were expensive. Yes. Yes, that's it. Come quietly.

Stitch: Mm, waiting.

Jumba: For what? [notices the Ugly Duckling book]

Stitch: Family.

Jumba: Ah. You don't have one. I made you.

Stitch: Oh, maybe I could--

Jumba: You’re built to destroy. You can never belong. Now come quietly, and we will take you apart. [Stitch runs off] No, no, no, no, dont, don't run! Don't run! Aye!

[Stitch grabs Jumba's plasma gun, but Jumba plugs it with a carrot]

Jumba: You shouldn't play with guns.

Stitch: [gives it to him] Oh, okay.

Jumba: Thank you. [hears the gun beeping, realizes it's overloading and throws it back to Stitch] Oh, I just remembered; it's your birthday! Happy birthday!

Stitch: [throws it to him; grunts] Merry Christmas!

Jumba: [throws it back] It's not Christmas!

Stitch: [throws it back] Happy Hannukah!

[As Jumba and Stitch play hot potato with the overloading gun, Pleakley grabs Lilo and runs out of the house]

Jumba: [in background, overlapped by Lilo] It's not Hannukah!

Lilo Pelekai: We're leaving Stitch?!

Agent Pleakley: Trust me, this is not going to end well!

[Back to Jumba and Stitch]

Jumba: One potato!

Stitch: Two potato!

Jumba: Three potato!

Stitch: Four!

Jumba: Five potato!

Stitch: Six potato!

Jumba: Seven potato, more!

Stitch: My...

Jumba: ...mother...

Stitch: ...told...

Jumba: ...me...

Stitch: ...you...

Jumba: ...are...

Stitch: ...it.

Jumba: Ha! I win!

[The gun explodes, destroying Lilo's house. One of the flying objects from the explosion hits Pleakley, and he screams and flies off-screen]

[After the Pelekai house is destroyed, Nani quickly arrives at the scene while Lilo is explaining to Cobra about everything that happened]

Lilo Pelekai: [describing Jumba and Pleakley] One of them had a giant eye in the middle of his face.

Nani Pelekai: Oh, Lilo. [Cobra puts Lilo in his car and shuts the car door] Please, don't do this.

Cobra Bubbles: You know I have no choice.

Nani Pelekai: No! You're not taking her! I'm the only one who understands her; You take that away, she won't stand a chance!

Cobra Bubbles: You're making this harder than it needs to be.

Nani Pelekai: You don't know what you're doing! She needs me!

Cobra Bubbles: [angrily points at her destroyed house] Is this what she needs?! It seems clear to me that you need her a lot more than she needs you. [Lilo gets out of his car on the other side and flees into the tropical forest] Lilo! LILO!

Nani Pelekai: Lilo!

[Stitch looks at Lilo's family portrait; Lilo then enters the tropic woods, where Stitch surprises her and hands her the portrait]

Lilo Pelekai: [coldly] You ruined everything. [Stitch hesitantly reveals his true alien form] You're one of them? [angrily shoves him away; quietly] Get out of here, Stitch. [She and Stitch then suddenly get captured by Gantu]

Captain Gantu: Surprise! [laughs evilly] And here I thought you'd be difficult to catch. Ho-ho-ho. Silly me.

Nani Pelekai: [searching for Lilo] Lilo? Lilo! [gets passed by Gantu, and she screams in horror; hears Stitch growls and gasps in shock]

Captain Gantu: [heads to his ship and puts Lilo and Stitch in his traveling glass capsule] There you go, all buckled up for the trip. [puts his capsule on the back of his ship] And look, I even caught you a little snack. [gets on his ship and starts his engine]

Nani Pelekai: [gasps] NO, STOP! [gets blown down to the ground; Stitch gets himself out of Gantu's capsule. Gantu's ship then takes off to the sky, leaving Stitch falling to the ground; but Lilo is still captured inside] Lilo. [Stitch gets up, but she smacks him with tree branch; angrily confronts him] Okay, talk. I know you had something to do with this. Now, where is Lilo? [Stitch doesn't answer] Talk! I know you can.

Stitch: [shakes his head and sighs; annoyed] Okay, okay.

Nani Pelekai: [screams and smacks Stitch with tree branch; Stitch groans] Where's...Lilo?

Stitch: [sighs] Lilo-- [gets zapped by plasma cannon blast]

Jumba: [after he captures Stitch] Ha-ha! Now all your washing is up!

Agent Pleakley: [shows his ID] You're under arrest! Read him his rights.

Jumba: Listen carefully. [starts laughing while beating up Stitch]

[Nani gets up and sees Jumba and Pleakley]

Agent Pleakley: Hello, Galactic command? Experiment 626 is in custody. We'll wait right here. [hangs up; sees Nani walks up to them; whispers to Jumba] Don't interact with her. [he and Jumba turn around]

Nani Pelekai: Where's Lilo?

Jumba: [turns around] Who? [Pleakley angrily slaps him] What?

Nani Pelekai: Lilo. My sister.

Jumba: Uh, sorry. We do not know anyone by this, uh--

Nani Pelekai: [stressed out] Lilo! She's a little girl, this big! She has black hair and brown eyes, and she hangs around with that THING! [angrily points to Stitch]

Stitch: Uh--

Jumba: [sighs; solemnly] We know her.

Nani Pelekai: Bring her back.

Agent Pleakley: Oh, we can't do that. Uh-uh. That would be a misuse of Galactic resources.

Jumba: See, problem is...we are just here for him. [referring to Stitch]

Nani Pelekai: [sadly] So, she's gone?

Agent Pleakley: Look at the bright side. You won't have to yells at anyone anymore. [chuckles nervously]

[Nani then sadly kneels to the ground and starts sobbing in despair that she can't get her little sister back]

Jumba: Come. [Stitch, Jumba and Pleakley turn to leave]

Stitch: [stops and walks back to Nani] O'Hana.

Nani Pelekai: Huh?

Jumba: Hey! [snatches Stitch] Get away from her.

Nani Pelekai: No! [quickly pulls Stitch back from Jumba; to Stitch] What did you say?

Stitch: "O'Hana" means family. Family means nobody--

Nani Pelekai: Nobody gets left behind.

Stitch: Or forgotten. Yeah. [to Jumba] Hey! [speaks alien language]

Jumba: WHAT?! [angrily grabs Stitch] After all you put me through, you expect me to help you just like that?! JUST LIKE THAT?!

Stitch: [in Tantalog] Yes.

Jumba: Fine. [takes space handcuffs off of him]

Agent Pleakley: "Fine"? You're doing what he says?

Jumba: Uh, he's very persuasive.

Agent Pleakley: "Persuasive"?! What exactly are we doing?

Jumba: Rescue.

Nani Pelekai: [delightfully] We're gonna get Lilo?

Stitch: [happily; in Tantalog] Yes!

[Later, they're on the motorcycle towards Jumba's ship]

Agent Pleakley: [sarcastically] Oh, good! I was hoping to add theft, endangerment, and INSANITY to my list of things I did today!

Jumba: Ha! You too?!

[Stitch laughs]

Stitch: Oh! Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Jumba: What? Did you think we walked here?

Captain Gantu: This is Gantu, requesting hyperspace clearance.

Computer Voice: Stand by for clearance. Clearance is granted on vector C-12.

Captain Gantu: Connect me to the Grand Councilwoman.

Grand Councilwoman: Gantu, what's going on?

Captain Gantu: I thought you'd like to know that the little abomination is... is...

Grand Councilwoman: Yes, Captain?

Captain Gantu: I'll call you back. How did you get out of there?

Nani Pelekai: So what exactly are we doing?

Jumba: Don't worry, is all part of plan. We are professionals. Hey! Get that out of your mouth! Hold on! Okay, is show time! This is it!

Stitch: Go! Go! Go!

Captain Gantu: Little savage! Get off my ship!

Lilo Pelekai: Stitch!

Captain Gantu: Computer, locate Experiment 6-2-6.

Computer Voice: 626 located.

Captain Gantu: We finish this now.

[Stitch had rough landings and landed hard on the road]

Jumba: Stitch is unconscious.

Nani Pelekai: What do we do now?

Jumba: We stay close. Hope for a miracle. That's all we can do.

Captain Gantu: NOW!!

Lilo Pelekai: Don't leave me, okay?

Stitch: [worried] Okay. Okay. [hears truck horn and sees said truck; determined] Okay.

Computer Voice: Target 626 is in motion. Speed is 84.

Captain Gantu: Impossible!

[His ship flies down to the Volcano National Park, it cuts to the location in this movie. Stitch drives the tanker truck, it breaks the sign. The tanker truck flies in the air and lands, it leaves a fire trail; referencing those are made by Back to the Future]

Lilo Pelekai: Stitch!

Stitch: Hmm?

[Captain Gantu closes in on Stitch, who is on top of a tanker truck he drove into a volcano]

Captain Gantu: Abomination.

Stitch: Stupidhead. [rips open the tanker, spilling gasoline into the magma; the resulting explosion launches him towards Gantu's ship] YEEEEEHAW!!! [crashes through the windshield into the cockpit] ALOHA! [laughs]

Captain Gantu: [furiously trying to pound Stitch with his fist] You're VILE! You're FOUL! You're FLAWED!

[Stitch grabs Gantu's hand]

Stitch: Also cute and FLUFFY! [throws him through the windshield onto the wing of Jumba's ship below]

[Bashing his head, and breaking the glass, Stitch pulled Lilo out]

Lilo Pelekai: You came back.

Stitch: Nobody gets left behind.

Nani Pelekai: Lilo!

[Last lines; They look and saw Stitch had taken hold of the ship while Lilo hangs onto him]

Lilo Pelekai: Good dog.

David Kawena: Auwe!

Lilo Pelekai: David!

David Kawena: Hey, Lilo.

Lilo Pelekai: Can you give us a ride to shore?

David Kawena: Uh, sure! But I have to make two trips. [to Stitch] So, you're from outer space, huh? I heard the surfing's choice.

[Stitch then gets captured by one of the intergalactic guards with the Grand Councilwoman, who showed up]

Intergalactic Guard: We have 626.

Grand Councilwoman: Take him to my ship.

Lilo Pelekai: Leave him alone.

Cobra Bubbles: [holds her back, preventing her from interfering] Hold on.

Captain Gantu: [his last words] Grand Councilwoman, let me explain.

Grand Councilwoman: Silence! I am retiring you, Captain Gantu.

Agent Pleakley: Actually, credit for the capture goes to--

Grand Councilwoman: Goes to me. You'll be lucky if you end up on a Fluff Trog farm after we sort this thing out.

Jumba: Uh, I think I should--

Grand Councilwoman: You! You're the cause of all this! If it wasn't for Experiment 626, none of this--

Stitch: [interrupting] Stitch.

Grand Councilwoman: What?

Stitch: My name Stitch.

Grand Councilwoman: Stitch, then. If it wasn't for Stitch-- [realizes what just happened, turns back to Stitch]

Stitch: Does Stitch have to go in the ship?

Grand Councilwoman: [shocked, hesitant] Yes.

Stitch: Can Stitch say goodbye?

Grand Councilwoman: Yes.

Stitch: Thank you. [walks over to Nani and Lilo]

Grand Councilwoman: [looks at Nani and Lilo] Who are you?

Stitch: This is my family. I found it all on my own. It's little and broken, but still good. Yeah. Still good. [walks back to board the ship]

Agent Pleakley: Does he really have to go?

Grand Councilwoman: [sighs deeply] You know as well as I that our laws are absolute. I cannot change what the Council has decided.

Cobra Bubbles: [whispers] Lilo, didn't you buy that thing at the shelter?

Lilo Pelekai: [takes out the adoption form from her pocket, realizing she has the ability to change the Grand Councilwoman's mind, and runs up her] Hey! [Grand Councilwoman looks down at her] Three days ago, I bought Stitch at the shelter. I paid $2 for him. See this stamp? I own him. [Grand Councilwoman takes the adoption form] If you take him, you're stealing.

[Grand Councilwoman smiles with a change of heart, realizing that Lilo's right]

Cobra Bubbles: Aliens are all about rules.

Grand Councilwoman: You look familiar.

Cobra Bubbles: CIA. Roswell. 1973.

Grand Councilwoman: [remembers] Ah, yes. You had hair then. Take note of this. This creature has been sentenced to life in exile, [takes space handcuffs off of Stitch] a sentence that shall be henceforth served out here...on Earth. And as caretaker of the alien life-form, Stitch, this family is now under the official protection of the United Galactic Federation. We'll be checking in, now and then.

Cobra Bubbles: I was afraid you were going to say that. This won't be easy to explain back at headquarters.

Grand Councilwoman: I know what you mean. [to her intergalactic guards] Don't let those two get on my ship. [leaves]

[Jumba and Pleakley wave bye to her; later, the mothership takes off from Hawaii back to space]

Nani Pelekai: [to Cobra] CIA?

Cobra Bubbles: Former. Saved the planet once. Convinced an alien race that mosquitoes were an endangered species. Now, about your house--

[cut to Stitch playing the ukulele, but stops for a moment]

Stitch: Wait. [Elvis Presley music playing a song Burning Love]

Elvis Presley: [singing] Lord Almighty, I feel my temperature risin', mmm / Higher, higher, it's burning through to my soul / Girl, girl, girl, girl, you're gonna set me on fire / My brain is flamin', I don't know which way to go, yeah...| Your kisses lift me higher / Like a sweet song of a choir You light my mornin' sky with burning love, mmm...| Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, I feel my temperature risin', mm / Help me, I'm flamin', I must be a 109, mmm / Burnin', burnin', burnin' and nothing can cool me, yeah / I just might turn into smoke, but I feel fine...| 'Cause your kisses lift me higher / Like the sweet song of a choir / And you light my mornin' sky with burning love...| It's comin' closer, the flames are now lickin' my body, mm / Won't you help me? I feel like I'm slippin' away / It's hard to breathe, and my chest is a-heavin', mmm, hmm / Lord, have mercy, I'm burning a hole where I lay, yeah...| Your kisses lift me higher / Like the sweet song of a choir / You light my morning sky with burning love / With burning love, a hunk, a hunk of burning love, ah...| I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love, ah / I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love, ah, ah / A hunk, a hunk of burning love, ah, ah / A hunk, a hunk of burning love, ah, ah...| A hunk, a hunk of burning love, ah / Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love, ah, ah / A hunk, a hunk of burning love, ah, ah, ah / I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love. [song fades]

A-TEENS lyrics (Can't Help Falling in Love)

A-Teens: I just can't help falling in love with you...| Wise men say / Only fools rush in / But I can't help falling in love with you...| Shall I stay? / Would it be a sin? / If I can't help falling in love with you...| Like a river flows to the sea / So it goes, some things are meant to be / Some things are meant to be...| Take my hand / Take my whole life too / For I can't help falling in love with you...| Wise men say / Only fools rush in / But I can't, I can't help falling in love with you...| Like a river flows to the sea / So it goes, some things are meant to be / Some things are meant to be...| Take my hand / Take my whole life too / For I can't help falling in love with you...| Take my hand / Take my whole life too / For I can't help falling in love with you / For I can't help falling in love / Falling in love with you...| Like a river flows, that's the way it works / I just can't help falling in love with you...| Like a river flows, that's the way it goes / I just can't help falling / Falling in love with you...| Like a river flows, that's the way it works / I just can't help falling in love with you...| Like a river flows, that's the way it goes / I just can't help falling / Falling in love with you...|[chorus singing]
