( whistles )
* Some say I'm just a kid *
* But I stand tall like a pyramid *
*One day I'll be mythic *
* Read about it in hieroglyphics *
*Ah-ee-ah-ah-oh *
* It's written in the stars, I'm who I'm gonna be *
* I'm takin' on the world this time *
* It's written in the stars of all that I can be *
* I feel the power in my heart *
* It's written in the stars *

( grunting )
Um, yeah, maybe deflate the alpaca first?
I don't know how to pack for a school break.
I've never been on one before.
I'm sorry you can't go home to Egypt
because it doesn't exist anymore.
- Uh, ouch? - And I'm sorry
we can't go to my planet because Octavian conquered it.
But I'm supernotsorry
you're coming to my home away from home with me!
It was really cool of your parents to invite me.
And don't worry, I'm totally OK
with the fact that they don't live in a palace.
I wasn't worried. Until now.
- Cleo: Stupid alpaca! - Brian: You guys ready?
The Academy will be completely snowed in soon.
It seems like only yesterday we were all hot and sweaty.
It was! Mayet only has two seasons: Sprummer and Finter.
Finter only lasts a week, but temperatures drop to 150 below zero.
Frostbite is real, people!
Don't to out without a thermal suit
or you could lose your tail.
This little baby's a prosthetic--
and an excellent back-scratcher.
Uhh! Oh, darn space fleas are eating me alive!
Oh! Oh-ho-ho, yeah. That's the stuff!
Did you lose your tail when you lived on the ice planet?
I lived on an ice planet?
Yeah. After you got kicked out of the Academy.
I got kicked out of the Academy?
You sure you'll be OK all alone at the Academy-- unhh!--over the break?
I'll have Dr. Queed for company,
and we can get a bunch of work done
without the usual distractions.
( grunts ) Are you saying I'm a distraction?
Because that description is accurate.
Khensu (sighs): The change of season
heralds the passing of time
and reminds us that life is fleeting.
I bid you all
a fond farewell.
Um, let's not get all sappy and weird.
We're only gone for a week.
He always gets sentimental this time of year.
Huh. Where are you going for your break, Khensu?
None of your business! You'll never know what plans I may or may not have! Never!
- ( all coughing ) - Someone forgot to take their medicine this morning.
( gasps ) That someone was me!
Ha!
My special wellness tonic contains vitamins K, L, Umlaut, and R.
Plus, it makes space fleas verydrowsy.
( snoring )
( thud )
Hey, you're gonna have alongweek.
Did Khensu seems super secretive about his personal life?
I wonder why he-- Whoops! Lost interest.
Let's get our school break on!
- ( rock music playing ) - ( raucous chatter, laughter )
Are we there yet?
This bus smells like chundridge and farts.
I can't help it if chundridge makes me fart. ( farts ) Aah!
Ugh. I spy with my little eyes something beginning with "S."
If it's "space" again, I'm gonna scream.
Um, no, it's "sss...stuff."
- ( banging ) - Dennis: School break! School break!
School break! School break! School break!
Quiet down! I'm trying to drive here!
- ( silence ) - ( kid coughs )
OK, it's on auto-pilot,
but I'm trying to meditate, all right?!
( silence )
( chatter, laughter )
I am so excited to see my mom!
They always make a huge deal out of school break!
They have a welcome banner, and my favorite foods.
We do my favorite stuff, like discussing my academic achievements,
scrapbooking, and organizing receipts!
( fake laugh ) I just-- I hope they like me.
Are you kidding? They'llloveyou.
I've told themallabout you.
And also, um--ahem-- hey, funny story,
my parents are scholars at the Savior Institute,
and basically, they study... uh, sort of...you.
- Wait. What? - I told you it was a funny story!
- Ha ha! Unhh. - Your parents studyme?
And you've never mentioned this.
I'm sorry, it's just that when you got here,
I was so excited I forgot to mention it.
Then too much time went by and it would have been weird
and I didn't want it to be weird.
- Is it weird? - It's super weird!
They don't exactly study you, they study the prophecy about you
and how you're gonna save the galaxy.
I'm not prepared for this kind of pressure!
Also, I thought no one was supposed to know I'm the savior.
No one at theAcademy.
And it's no pressure!
It's just a regular old school break.
Yay, school brea-hey-eak!
School break! School break!
School break!
We're here!
Kiki, welcome home!
- "Kiki"? - ( giggles, sighs )
Oh, Cleopatra. The savior!
Oh, it it such an honor to finally meet you.
I'm Theoda and this is Pothina.
Omigosh, omigosh, omigosh!
I have waited for this day forsolong!
I am totally fan-girling right now.
Or am I fan-womaning?
Neither. Just be cool, Mom!
Iama cool mom. I am so very baller.
All aboard the hug train!
( train whistle blows )
Moms, no, I'm too old for a hug train! Unhh!
Ofcourseyou're not. * Toot toot! *
( awkward chuckle ) It's nice to meet you both.
Oh, and this little guy is Mihos.
- Adorbs! - ( Mihos chittering )
( Mihos purring )
Awww!
Cleo: Oh, baby Kiki was so cute!
Yeah. She took forever to potty-train, though.
Just poop, poop, poop, poop everywhere.
- ( Akila groans ) - What's that on your face, sweetie?
Uh, embarrassment?
- ( groaning ) Moms! No! - Come here.
- Akila: Stop it! - Heh. Heh.
Oh! Uh, wow. Ha ha.
There are even some pictures of, uh, me.
- Like, a lot. - Oh, Kiki sent us a few snaps.
Wait. Did you cut me out of this one?
Wow. After studying the savior for so long,
it was legitrad to put a face to the name.
We've been here studying the prophecy
ever since Vevoson was conquered in the Blight.
Octavian, am I right?
- Major buzzkill. - ( Akila sighs )
I faced off with him once.
I absorbed all the power from his ship,
and then, bam! Blasted him!
- Yaas, queen! - Ha ha ha ha! Oh, love it.
Oh, yeah, Octavian. Absorbed power. Blasted. Oh, cool, cool, cool.
All right! Now it's time to discuss my academic achievements!
( firework crackling )
Cleo, we'd love to show you around the Savior Institute.
But won't that be weird?
And stressful. And weird.
Oh, girl, it would be mad helpful to our research
to ask you some questions.
Then I guess...OK.
Wait! What about my favorite foods? The scrapbooking?
Organizing receipts?
Uh, maybe next school break, sweetie.
- No! - Ohh. Did you skip nap time?
( baby talk ) You always getsodwamatic when you're sweepy.
Argh! I'm not sleepy! Uh! Uh! Uh!
Don't treat me like a little kid!
Uh! Uh! Uh! Uh!
Worst. School break. Ever!
Uh! Uh! Uh! Uh! Uh!
Yup. Definitely skipped that nap.
Uh...
Wait, that's me! And that me!
And that's a whole bunch of me's!
- Ohh. - You'll do great.
Let's get this tour started. It's gonna belit!
Ohhh....
Whoa.
This is a bit much, isn't it?
Definitely!
( chatter )
Sorry, Cleo. This is very embarrassing.
Yeah, I'm totally embarrassed by all this attention. Please.
Stop. Mwah! Oh!
- Could ya--? - ( camera clicks )
Oh. Heh heh. Oh, thank you. Ooh.
I think they want a show.
Yahh! Hyah! Hyah! Hyah! Hyah!
( spectators cheering )
Should she be messing around with that ancient artifact?
Yaas!
( Cleo grunting )
( camera clicks )
Cleo: Yahhh!
( all cheering )
Hmm. Aah!
Hey, watch it!
( grunts, gasps ) Professor Stedhorka!
It's Akila! You probably don't recognize me
because I've grown so much since you last saw me!
Little Akila! Look at you.
- Blocking my path to the savior. - Whoa!
Ha ha!
Unhhh!
Ha ha!
We could be scrapbooking right now!
- I wanna go home! - But we haven't finishing giving Cleo the tour.
What about whatIwant?
Oh, Kiki. Are you sleepy again?
I'm. Not. Sleepy!
Uh! Uh! Uh! Uh! Uh!
I'm protesting!
( baby talk ) OK, sweetie.
You have your widdle pwotest
and we'll catch up waater.
( sniffles ) Hmm.
( Cleo laughing )
( gasps ) What? Wow!
Isn't it amazeballs? We had it commissioned just after you arrived.
Iloveit!
I've always wanted to see a giant me!
We'll have to have it updated to include your best friend.
- ( Akila gasps ) - Mihos.
( Mihos chittering )
- ( all laughing ) - Akila: Unhh!
Don't mind me.
I'm just here in Cleo's shadow.
Theoda: This is the Prophecy Stone.
It's an alien copy of an ancient Egyptian text.
The language is totally unknown,
so this scanner feeds the characters into a computer
which works on a translation.
OK, we've recently made a discovery.
The Prophecy Stone mentions the Scroll of the Golden Lion,
and the Scroll of the Golden Lion is right here on Chios!
And we have no idea what the Golden Lion is,
but it seems to be ridonkulously important.
Well, what are we waiting for?
Let's go get that scroll!
One problem. It's in Snaky Hollow,
the deadliest forest on Chios.
No one's ever come out of there alive.
Of course, I mean, no one's ever goneinthere.
Because no one's ever come out of there alive!
- ( device beeping ) - Oh! The hypothetical syntax cluster is on the fritz again.
- We'll be back. - Don't touch anything.
Uh...
Akila, are you all right?
You seem a lot less perky than normal.
In fact, you don't seem perky at all.
Isn't it obvious what's going on?
My moms loveyou more thanme!
That's ridonkulous!
Ever since we got here, all they care about is you!
I can't get any attention at all.
That's only 'cause of the savior prophecy thing.
Wait. The Prophecy Stone! That's how you can get attention!
If you took a look, you could decipher some stuff,
and then bam! Maximum Mom Attention Overload!
OrI could trip the alarms and cause a facility-wide shutdown!
Wouldn't that get you the bad kind of attention?
You know at this point, I'll take it.
And it'swayeasier
than translating an ancient alien stone.
P.A.:Security breach! Security breach!
( gasps ) Akila Cleopatra Theoris!
- Your middle name is--? - Oh, yes. We named her that because of our research.
- But why didn't you tell-- - I never told you 'cause it's too weird!
But hey, I touched the Prophecy Stone
even though you told me not to!
I guess you'll have to punish me.
Maybe by giving me a lengthy,
in-depth lecture about right and wrong?
I do love giving a lengthy lecture, but I'm too busy.
You,young lady, are on a time-out.
( sighs ) OK.
Today is really not my day.
Hmm. Snaky Hollow.
It's risky, but definitely attention-grabbing!
Hmm. ( gasps ) There he is!
My moms told that guard not to let me leave!
( snoring )
- ( snoring ) - Whew!
( Akila panting )
When I come back with the Scroll of the Golden Lion,
they're gonna build a statue ofme!
Ha! Maybe two!
Whoa! Aaah!
Who am I kidding?
They probably haven't even noticed I'm gone.
Or worse, they're glad.
( sobbing )
( rattling sound )
How's it going?
Terrible.
Aren't you scared? I'm a huge, terrifying snake!
Most people run away when they see me.
( crying ) I'm too sad.
I brought my best friend home to meet my parents,
and now they loveher more thanme!
Ohh, parents are the worst.
I mean, I ate all my kids,
so I know first-hand how terrible parents can be.
Uh, maybe I should be going.
Relax! I'm a changed snake.
I'm Simon, by the way.
You can call me Si, Simmo,
Sss...
no, that's all I've got.
Nice to meet you, Simon. Heh. I'm Akila.
What do you say I help you teach your parents a lesson?
We could make them think I've captured you--
scare them a little until they come to their senses.
Good idea?
It's the best idea I've ever heard!
Theoda: She was supposed to be
on a time-out. Where'd she go?
Don't know. Just closed my eyes for a second,
and then... fell asleep for an hour.
Well, maybe she's getting a snack?
- ( device beeping) - I've tracked her tab,
and she's in...(gasps)...
Snaky Hollow!
Aaah! The deadliest forest on Chios!
OK, that is seriously whack.
Yeah, this thing you're doing?
With the slang? It's not working.
Akila!
( sighs ) OK, this just seems
like a regular old spooky-looking forest.
I haven't seen a single snake.
Why are these leaves so crunchy?
They aren't leaves.
They're dried-out snake skins.
( gagging ) Oh, gross.
OK, this place would be Brian's nightmare.
Or anyone's nightmare! It's a nightmare!
Shhh! Snakes attack if they feel threatened.
You donotwant to die of a snake bite.
No way. I don't want to jinx myself,
but that sounds like the absolute worst possible way to go.
I'll set my quaser to "pillow."
It's the least threatening setting.
Akila (in distance): Cleo!
( all panting )
Heeyahh!
- Kiki! - ( hissing, rattling )
Stay back!
Kiki! Are you all right?
A little...squished.
No feeling in...legs.
No blood flowing to upstairs thinky place.
- We have to get her out of here! - So on it!
Let. Her. Go.
You talk tough, little lady, but I don't think you've got the guts.
- ( zap ) - Ohh!
Did you seriously just hit me with an energy pillow?!
We don't want to hurt you,
we just want you to let Akila go.
Why would I do that? She's my dinner!
And wouldn't you know, I'm feeling a little peckish.
- Ahhhh.... - Pothina: No!
Take me instead!
It's OK, Mom, let him eat me.
You and Ma have Cleo now. Unh.
What are youtalkingabout?
Kiki, you are the most important thing in the world to us!
We love you more than anything.
Really? Then how come you only care about Cleo?
Sweetie, we care about Cleo because we care about the prophecy.
Learning about it may be our only chance
to save the galaxy from Octavian.
Then we can finally go home together-- as a family.
Honey, we would doanything for you.
Including get eaten by a snake.
Well, fortunately, that won't be necessary.
Alright, Simon, you can let me go now.
Sorry, not happening.
But we taught them a lesson.
Now I'm teachingyou a lesson.
Never trust a snake.
Thanks for luring me a four-course meal.
- ( Mihos chittering ) - Simon: Oh, five-course meal.
You're gonna make such a delicious appetizer.
Right, let me just unhinge my jaw again.
- Ahhh.... - Cleo: Don't worry, Kiki!
- We'll save you! - ( quaser zapping )
Cool it with the pillows!
It's really annoying!
Nyahh!
Aaah! Unh!
Stupid legs!
Wake up! ( grunting )
Hurry, Akila! I think I can hold him off!
Aaaah!
Oh. Aaah!
- Ah-ha-ha-ha, ha-ha! - I think I spoke too soon.
Simon: Yahhh! Yahhh!
- Hyahh! - ( Simon laughing )
Oh, this is a mess! And it's all my fault.
No. This wouldn't have happened if we weren't so caught up in work.
We love you, Kiki!
It's silly, but... I was jealous
of all the attention Cleo was getting.
Simon: Ah, gotcha! No, gotcha now!
There's nothing we want more than for you to be able to come home for good.
- We miss you. - I miss you too!
Cleo: Hate to--whoa!--
interrupt this... super-sweet moment...
( Cleo screams )
but I could use some heeeelp!
( slo-mo scream )
Akila: Oh, no! Cleo!
Moms! Distract him while I get Cleo's quaser!
Pothina: Yo! Over here, bro!
Yahh! Yahh! Oh!
( Cleo grunting )
All: ( battle cries )
-( buzzes ) -It's stuck!
The highest setting I can turn it up to is "pester"!
Oh! That's tingly! And not in a fun way!
Uhhhyahh!
Stop that! No fair!
Unhh! Fair?!
You're a giant, terrifying, double-crossing monster snake!
Ohh! Yeah, you're right!
So...so this is weird, 'cause I normally win.
Akila! The scroll! It's behind you!
Huh?
- Ooh! - Simon: Whoa-ha-ha-ha!
Kiki! Unhh!
( hissing, laughing )
Not this time!
Aaaaaaahhhh! Unh!
( yells )
Ow-ow-ow! Come on!
Run!
Akila!
Waah!
You know what would have made this all worthwhile?
Getting the Scroll of the Golden Lion.
We don't care about the scroll. We only care that you're safe.
Then what am I gonna do with...this?
Behold the Scroll--ohh! ohh!--
of the...Golden Lion... darn.
I really wanted that to be a cool reveal.
Still pretty cool!
And I am dying to know what's in that scroll.
It roughly translates to...
"Savior and Ata,
Golden Lion and Uta,
one nut, one shell."
- Huh. - Cleo: Argh!
Why are all these prophecy thingies always so cryptic?!
We still don't know what the Golden Lion is.
I guess that means you guys have a lot more work to do.
Right after we cook all your favorite foods
and do all your favorite stuff.
Ha! Seriously?
Ha! Best school break ever!
Let's bring it in for the hug train.
* Toot toot! *
Well done, AkilaCleopatraTheoris.
Argh! I couldn't tell you,
it was just so, so, so weird!
( music playing )
