FADE IN:
On the awesome WB LOGO made of LEGO bricks.We PUSH through it and find ourselves in aSTARFIELD.
A COMET streaks towards us. We FOLLOW as it blasts past. The ground plane rushes up to camera. BLACK.
HELICOPTER SHOTS over various landscapes.
SHKBOOM!!! The comet makes impact! A LEGO explosion! We peer into the smoking crater. Fire amid blackness.
Suddenly, we are blinded by a powerfulTUNNEL OF LIGHT. It’s an animated LEGO version of the light tunnel in 2001, which was directed by Stanley Kubrick, who knows a thing or two about making movies, so don’t step.
We push forwards, headed into a new world.
MAIN TITLE:“LEGO: THE PIECE OF RESISTANCE”
The most killer looking ancient vine-encrusted jungle temple of all time. The whole thing is made of LEGO.
CHYRON: “Ten billion years later”
REVEAL LEGOINDIANA JONES and two GUIDES. Indy puts up a hand for them to stop. He removes a RUBY RED PIECE from his bag and connects it to the temple. The piece GLOWS.
A dark passageway opens, and Indy lights a torch.The flames are made of ANIMATED LEGO BRICKS.The guides are too scared to continue. Indy’s not.
A beautiful room made entirely of GOLDEN BRICKS.In the center is a GOLDEN SARCOPHAGUS guarded by statues of gods from every ancient civilization imaginable.
Indy carefully lifts a tablet from a statue of Zeus and places it into the sarcophagus like an ATM card.He pushes a bunch of cuneiform buttons - a PIN NUMBER.
The sarcophagus opens. A white-hot glow on Indy’s face.
BLAM!!! The entire room shakes. The statues are blown apart!
The smoke clears. Enter THE BLACK FALCON, the most evil person in the universe. He’s flanked byROBOT guards.
The Black Falcon basks in the glow of the sarcophagus.
The BF motions and his guards carry the sarcophagus away.
He exits. As the sarcophagus crosses the threshold of the temple, walls shake. The temple is CRUMBLING.
Left for dead, Indy uses the falling pieces to build himself a sweet rocket ship and blasts out of the temple. Narrowly avoiding a big rolling LEGO ball, probably.
A farmhouse in the hills. Indy rolls up and pulls the teat of a goat, which opens a SECRET DOOR.
Art studio meets SuperFriends headquarters. Badasses are MEDITATING, includingGEMINI, a mysterious cloaked figure, andKRAV M’GA, the boss. Indy bursts in.
PUSH IN dramatically:
PUSH IN dramatically:
KRAV M’GA Gemini. Find the Chosen One.
PUSH IN dramatically:
BOOM. Something big just landed outside.Indy looks at his foot. Attached is a blinking red brick. Oh no.
KRAV M’GA (to Gemini) GO! NOW!
CRASH! It’s a full scale assault by hundreds of ROBOTS. The MasterBuilders fight valiantly but are overwhelmed.
Gemini runs from the fight, then stumbles, overcome with emotion as we hear the battle being lost. Amid the screams, Krav M’Ga’s final words echo through Gemini’s head...
KRAV M’GA (V.O.) Find the Chosen One...
DORIS, a dowdy mom, calls through her son’s door.
Doris walks into his meticulously clean room to find Emmet, 22, a total square, in his underpants.
Emmet “pulls” on a pair of mini-fig legs.Replaces his torso with a shirt. Takes off his hair and puts on a construction hat. Ready for work. Doris is so proud.
EMMET’S RECURRING DREAM: A middle school classroom. Everyone wears blue. Young Emmet wears red.The ART TEACHER walks around, commenting.
Everyone dutifully draws the same drawing of a hand, but Emmet drawstwo hands close together so they look like eyes. He draws a mouth and pupils. The teacher stops.
She holds up Emmet’s drawing for all to see.
SLOW MOTION: All the kids in the class GASP.
Emmet sits alone, crying. The other kids sit at other tables and whisper...
Emmet ERASES his drawing, a pariah. A little GIRL looks at him from afar with sympathy.
BACK TO SCENE
She wants to tell him something, but thinks better of it.
He EXITS, leaving her alone in the room. She SIGHS.
Emmet drives into the most elaborate LEGO city set ever. Everywhere are dozens of STREET SIGNS offering detailed instructions for what you should and shouldn’t do. Everyone drives the same speed in the same direction, listening to the same station, moving to the same beat.
MUSIC: An insanely catchy pop song.
In what feels like a musical number, Emmet drives past vignettes of citizens happily going about their day and loving this song! BILLBOARDS everywhere advertise EMPURA, a company which apparently owns everything.
Everyone walks in the same direction and goes in to various identical-seeming coffee shops.
SECURITY CAMERA FOOTAGE: A camera scans for something, or someone, but can’t tell Emmet from the rest of the crowd.
A Starbucks by a different name. Mixed with a Hot Dog on a Stick. Emmet arrives at the counter.
As Emmet exits the shop and passes an EMPURA billboard asking him to reelect President Iamnotarobot.
A television in a shop window shows highlights of a debate between Iamnotarobot and Stooge Strawman.
Emmet finishes the drive to work. Everyone pulls into their parking spaces at the same time, like clockwork.
Emmet walks out and looks at his new work place.His breath is taken away as he gazes on a beautiful...
A fantastical construction site. Super-awesome cranes. Emmet walks and talks to his new boss.
Emmet GUFFAWS like that’s the craziest idea ever.
The laugh together for a LONG TIME. Then,
They walk past BIG STACKS OF PIECES moved by MACHINES.
They casually step across girders high above the city.
They arrive at the COOLEST CONSTRUCTION MACHINE EVER. Emmet opens up his actual size LEGO instructions.
Emmet puts a hand on his shoulder.
Emmet puts his hands on the controls, savoring this moment, and finally puts his first brick in, according to the plan. It’s an awesome feeling. Another. Another. He gets in the zone of building. This feels right.
Lunchtime. Emmet looks at a heart-shaped COOKIE his mom baked for him. “I love you” in frosting. He flips it over. “Be Safe!” He looks over to the other INSTRUCTION WORKERS, eating lunch.
Silence.
Emmet smiles his butt off.
Emmet is back to building. He takes a look at the city from the highest height. It’s beautiful. He’s downright INSPIRED looking at it. He sees the LEGO brick clouds in the sky slowly form the shape of a FACE.
We ZOOM IN to Emmet’s MIND. We see LEGO SYNAPSES firing. A CONNECTION between two halves of the brain.An IDEA.
We pull back to REVEAL that Emmet has accidentally built, instead of a window, a SMILING FACE, reminiscent of the one he drew in class all that time ago.
The Foreman picks up the phone.
Just then, A CRANE OPERATOR notices the happy face.His distraction causes the crane to go in the wrong direction and SMASH a wall. The falling bricks cause an elaborate chain reaction that tips the structure over.
Chaos! Instruction workers run away for their lives!
POLICEMAN’S PARTNER Loose brick!
The cops throw their lunch out the window, shattering it. They pop the sirens and take off!
The cops hit the gas! We PULL WIDER revealing dozens of other POLICE CARS doing the same. Sirens blaring.
The condo tips over an adjacent condo (with someone living in it, of course) which hits another and another, the buildings going down like elaborate dominoes.
Thirty COP CARS, an AMBULANCE and FIRE TRUCK screech in. Cops run full tilt to keep the buildings from falling.
The cops jump out and stare up at the last domino, which falls on them. SMASH! The remaining cops look at Emmet.
Emmet is in the back of the car.
Emmet is being booked.
Emmet sits chained to a desk in the shadow of two DETECTIVES. They look slicker than the others.
SFX: SLAM!
Emmet is in jail. He has a huge scary convict roommate.
Doris sits at an empty dinner table set for two.She picks at her food and sighs. Her only company is the TV.
Doris sees the brick happy face and knows it has to be Emmet! She looks worried. Then oddly STEELY.
Emmet lies awake, sad.
Something is moving in the field outside Emmet’s Cell. It’s DORIS! She pulls apart bricks in the ground.
CLOSE ON A RACQUEL WELCH POSTER. A blowdart gun emerges from her belly-button. TH-THOONK! Two guards outside Emmet’s cell go down. DORIS bursts through the poster!
The following conversation is WHISPERED.
THOONK! Doris blowdarts Emmet, who passes out. Doris drags Emmet by the purse through the hole.
Doris and Emmet tunnel in, to the surprise of CUSTOMERS. Doris tries to make Emmet seem like a normal shopper.He is still holding her purse in a coma-grip.
GROCERY SECURITY CAMERA: zooms in on Doris. We see face recognition graphics, then zoom in on her BIRTHMARK.
Doris pushes him in a shopping cart through the parking lot and into an ALLEY. Emmet comes to.
A beat. Doris continues but Emmet doesn’t follow.
He turns away from her. Behind Emmet, threeROBOTIC NINJASsilently land, and shoot a human-sized RUBBER BAND from a bent PAPERCLIP at Doris-- it wraps around her, tying her up! They grab her and pull her into a SLEEK BLACK CAR!
He whips around just in time to see her being taken.
Emmet is TACKLED by a hooded figure: GEMINI.
Gemini grabs a mailbox and STARTS TAKING IT APART! Does the same with the shopping cart and other nearby items, REBUILDING them into an awesome mailbox-styleSUPERCYCLE!
Gemini takes OFF! Emmet, in pursuit, runs into TRAFFIC. He flags down a DUMPY CAR.
It’s the guy from the coffee shop.
Emmet gets in and slams his foot on the gas!
Everyone is going in the exact same direction.Except three cars driving madly against traffic!So begins the craziest, most wonderful LEGO CAR CHASE OF ALL TIME!
Doris is tied up in the back in the rubber band.
NINJA #1 You know what we want.
NINJA #1 Do we?
He pulls back her sleeve, revealing the star-shaped mark.
Gemini tries to keep up with the ninja car.Emmet, in Larry’s car, catches up. They are going super fast and dodging cars while screaming across traffic.
Emmet leans out of the car.
He loses control of the car and CRASHES INTO Gemini!The cars tumble in a big heap. You can’t tell where the car stops and the motorcycle begins. Larry and Emmet are upside down in seatbelts.
Gemini is thrown from the cycle during the crash, but gets up and rebuilds the two vehicles into one SUPER CAR CYCLE that’s a mashup of both! Gemini is in the driver’s seat, Emmet in passenger, and Larry in the back.
They crash through an EMPURA BILLBOARD.
SLOW MOTION: The car smashes into pieces and Gemini rebuilds them, incorporating some of the billboard pieces into the restored vehicle.
The new vehicle hits the ground and continues in pursuit.
Gemini drops the cloak hood, revealing...
She builds the glove compartment and antenna into a CROSSBOW and ARROW.
Lucy shoots a tethered arrow at the NINJA CAR. Bullseye.
Doris, tied up, sees Lucy and Emmet in pursuit.
The ROBO-NINJAS LAUGH as she struggles against mysterious restraints that, strangely, cannot be broken!
The two cars are TETHERED TOGETHER as they race through the streets, making the chase even more BADASS.
Lucy pulls out a pistol, leans out the window, and returns fire as the bad guys shoot at them.
Lucy BUILDS a barrier between the front and back seats.
SIRENS!
The cops start to shoot at them.
Now the cops are chasing them while they chase Doris! Dozens. Blues Brothers meets Freebie and the Bean, only when these cars crash, they break into LEGO PIECES!
The two cars fly off an OVERPASS and land on a MOVING EL TRAIN that goes all through LEGOPOLIS.It’s a car chase on a moving train... IN 3D!
This sinks in.
Lucy jumps out the window and goes out onto the tether.
This is insane. And they are running out of train. Lucy gets onto the ninja car. Smashes the window. The ninjas beat on her. She tries to take the car apart to build a weapon but it’s somehow STUCK TOGETHER!
At the last possible second, Lucy jumps off the car. Emmet jumps out of his car. The ninja car flies off the end of the train and through a BUILDING.Nothing happens to the Viking car, but Lucy and Emmet’s car SMASHES into a thousand pieces. They land with a THUD.
Lucy pulls Emmet behind a DUMPSTER as the police arrive at the scene and COVER UP the hole in the wall.
Lucy and Emmet run away. Larry the Barrista emerges from the rubble, unseen by the cops.
He gets up and walks O.S., right past an open sewer grate where Emmet and Lucy once were.
Emmet and Lucy wade through the sewers.
Lucy yanks the purse towards her. She opens the purse and starts removing items. A lot of items. Like A LOT.
Finally, it’s empty.
Emmet pulls it away. A RATTLE.
Lucy pulls Emmet back and finds a FALSE COMPARTMENT.In it is a lock box. It has a combination lock.
That’s not the combo.
Lucy opens the case and lifts out the most beautiful thing they’ve ever seen: a singlePIECEthat has studs on all sides, and continually changes colors as if by magic.
They bask in its glow.
There is an inscription. Etched all around it.
Lucy doesn’t say anything. It’s her way of saying “Yes.”
Emmet goes up to the MasterPiece, upset.He touches it, feeling sorry for himself. The second Emmet touches it... WHAM!!!!
A fuzzy vision of strange creatures. Are they... HUMAN? We see them very close up. As though the cameraman were a minifig. And he were underwater.
SFX: GASP!
BACK TO SCENE
Emmet lets go, catching his breath. The purse is now free from his hand.
SFX: VOICES.
COPS enter the sewer. Emmet puts the MasterPiece back in his mom’s purse and wears it like a backpack.Lucy and Emmet dash out.
A FOOTCHASE ENSUES between the cops and Lucy and Emmet. Lucy uses her powers to dash through buildings and shops and lose the cops, breaking apart walls and rebuilding them behind her. Emmet keeps up, barely.
She turns away, remembering. It’s painful.
Emmet lamely imitates her quickbuild kung-fu.
The cops are closing in. They turn around a blind corner and run smack into...
There’s a big sign that tells us “CITY LIMITS.NO EXIT/NO ENTRY.” And a literal line across the ground. Emmet stops short of the line.
She steps across the line. Emmet GASPS for a long time.
Beat. We can hear the cops and their DOGS BARKING.
Emmet deliberately and meaningfully, in super slow motion, crosses the line. He EXHALES DRAMATICALLY.Takes another step. Then another, then-- SLAM!
Emmet has walked straight into an INVISIBLE WALL!Camera COMES AROUND revealing a trompe l’oeil painting on bricks that go up as far as the eye can see.
Lucy reveals an odd-shaped DEPRESSION in the wall. She takes apart a nearby VENDING MACHINE and rearranges the pieces into the shape of the depression, puts it in, filling the negative space...and it opens a door.Lucy pulls Emmet into the door and into...
A TUNNEL OF LIGHT- just like at the beginning of the movie. It seems peaceful, until we see that Emmet and Lucy are hurtling towards a monolithic wall.They BLAST THROUGH IT and into...
A beautiful, breathtaking place that looks like LEGO New Zealand. It’s beautiful. Until...
Lucy and Emmet crash land into a bunch of HOBBIT HOUSES. They get out of the ship and look around.They see a lot of hobbits yelling at them for destroying their shire.
A SCARY NOISE. The Hobbits scurry into their houses. Emmet and Lucy get down just before an army of robots riding robo-horses marches by.
A robot turns its head. Almost spots them, then moves away. Lucy bonks Emmet on the head and they dash away.
An evil volcano with a slick office tower rising out of it. A big Bauhaus cork holding back inordinate power.
Doris is strung up in the rubber band, and now also chains and strapped to a board.
Guards wheel her into...
The office of the worst boss you’ve ever had.Doris lunges at him but is restrained by her shackles.
Doris GASPS as BF unveils the sarcophagus we saw earlier. A Robot Ninja opens it. Inside is aTUBE OF KRAZY GLUE with some of the letters rubbed off to spell “KRA__GL_E.”
Black Falcon saunters over to a STAGE SET, with a life- sized DIORAMA with living minifigs playing out a residential tableau.
The Dad puts his arm down slightly.
Some NinjaVikings lower the Kragle into a cool looking KRAGLE CANNON, operated by a ninjaviking in a helmet. The cannon whirs to life, directed at the diorama.
“DAD” I’m sorry?
“DAD” But you just said it.
“DAD” Hello Black Falcon, I’m Dale, this is Mary--
“DAD” (beat) My wife, Mary.
“DAD” And our kids--
“DAD” And our children Mark and Lisa.
“DAD” <*SIGH*> Hello Black Falcon I’m Dale, this is my wife Mary and our children Mark and Lisa.
He points to the operator, who pulls a lever on the Cannon, which ZAPS them with KRAZY GLUE, freezing them!
Doris can’t look at him. BF shows her a poster with a goofy image of Emmet. “Wanted: Broken or Together.”
He grabs a LEGO MAGNIFYING GLASS from his desk and shows Doris the out-of-focus PURSE Emmet’s holding in the Wanted photo.
As Doris struggles, the guards take her away.
They come upon a majestic canyon with an immense LEGO waterfall (clear pieces tumbling down). Lucy climbs up the rock wall. Emmet follows.
Two-thirds up the canyon wall is a ledge with a cave behind the waterfall. And a sign. “Beware of Dragon.” Gulp.
YAPYAPYAP!DRAGON, a nasty yippy DOGstartles them.
Lucy knocks on the door of a garishly painted SHACK.
A homeless-looking man opens the door, facing the wrong direction. This is VITRUVIUS, Ben Kenobi meets Mr. Magoo meets Gandalf meets Columbo.
Looks like it was decorated by a blind man.And it was. Vitruvius opens the shades, revealing a window view of a rock wall.
Vitruvius stops.
PUSH IN ON VITRUVIUS.
A STYLIZED 2D LEGO FLASHBACK tells his story:
LESS OLD VITRUVIUS pulls out a cornerstone brick in the lair and the whole thing topples over.
We see his animated metamorphosis from teen to the Black Falcon of today.
END FLASHBACK
This gets Vitruvius’ attention.
Lucy holds out the MasterPiece. This changes the game. Vitruvius walks reverently towards it.Then past it.
Vitruvius has created a chart to explain his plan.
Emmet and Lucy sit at a “table.” AKA a pink ERASER.
He gestures to a map. For once it’s what he says it is, but as he’s talking, he points to the wrong places. Lucky for us, the camera follows the map correctly.
A bustling colonial-era port, but with every possible kind of ship, from aircraft carrier to canoe.Emmet, Lucy, Vitruvius, and Dragon sneak down a DOCK disguised as FISHERMEN. Dragon is disguised as a FISH.
They come upon a really cool PIRATE SHIP.NECKBEARD, a pirate, sticks his head through a porthole in the ship.
Neckbeard hops out onto the dock, revealing he HAS NO BODY. He’s just a head. And a beard.
She does.
Neckbeard and Lucy begin MAKING OUT.
Suddenly, Neckbeard somehow gets up in Emmet’s grill.
He gets somehow closer to Emmet. Mouths almost touching.
Neckbeard slowly hops back past, eyeing Emmet the whole time. Emmet looks to Lucy: “How can you be with him?”
As they board the ship and meet the ragtag crew including Chewbacca, the BAD COP from 20 pages ago watches them from the dock, comparing Emmet to his WANTED POSTER.
The Sea Cow sails across a sea made entirely of LEGO. Waves animating with thousands and thousands of LEGO bricks-- if the audiences have reassembled their minds from being blown before, they just got blown again.
Neckbeard pores over a chart explaining their heading to Lucy and Vitruvius. Emmet swabs the deck.
The boat rocks back and forth. Emmet, LITERALLY GREEN, approaches Vitruvius who’s MEDITATING while building a crazy mecha bird. Like those adorable creatures in *Batteries Not Included.
Vitruvius punches Emmet in the face.
Emmet stares at him for a minute, confused. Then he looks at the mecha-bird, impressed.
Emmet pets the mechabird with a real sense of wonder.
It emits a PIERCING ALARM CLOCK NOISE.
Vitruvius smiles. But it’s bittersweet.
Vitruvius points up to the night sky.
Vitruvius indicates the sky.
The mechabird flies out a porthole. Emmet runs after it.
WE FOLLOW the mechabird soaring over the moonlit waves, and finally, past a VIKING SHIP manned by ROBOVIKINGS.
It’s more high-tech than a normal Viking Ship.Lots of Empura Logos. Bad Cop stands next to a RoboViking Sentry.
Neckbeard looks through a SPYGLASS at the enemy ship.
Vitruvius and Emmet come up from below decks.Lucy and Neckbeard begin to meditate together.
We go into LUCY’S MIND’S EYE: She is conceiving of new instructions. She can see every piece at once and is reforming them in her mind into something new. NECKBEARD’S MINDS EYE looks the same. Their two visions of the pieces combine!
Their eyes open!
Neckbeard’s pirate crewmembers, including Chewbacca, enthusiastically oblige.
Lucy, Neckbeard, Vitruvius, all start rebuilding the ship into a BADASSSUBMARINE. This looks awesome as hell.
Emmet, exasperated, does his best to build a hatch. INTERCUT the others building quick and cool with Emmet unable to act creatively at all. Finally, inSLOW MOTION:Emmet puts two bricks together.
At the last second, Lucy runs up to Emmet.All he’s got is two pieces attached in a cross-bar.
She quick-builds a hatch, attaches his cross-bar, drags him inside, and spins the hatch shut, just as they DIVE below the waves.
Like a classic sub interior, but manned by pirates. Neckbeard perches himself at the periscope, plugging into it using his head peg.
A ROBOVIKING among SOPHISTICATED EQUIPMENT sees nothing.
OVERHEAD SHOT: We watch the sub go underneath the ship.
PUSH IN as the radar scanner spins around slowly.Will it show a blip or not?
A bunch of RoboVikings stand at the ready, prepared to fire extensive weaponry any second.
UNDER THE SUB LOOKING UP: we can see the carrier far overhead in the moonlight, the sub in the foreground.
Our guys huddle, worried about being caught. A LONG BEAT.
He hits the equipment, breaking some pieces off.
They did it! Emmet cheers with everyone, excited to be one of the guys. Lucy puts a hand on his shoulder. It’s the first time anyone has really touched him since his mom was kidnapped. He smiles and looks out a porthole.
Emmet looks out at the water. He sees many beautiful LEGO fish, dolphins, and whales. It’s just WONDEROUS.
Emmet turns back to the group.
He sees Lucy and Neckbeard making out again.When we cut back to Emmet, he’s GREEN again.
FOG. The sub surfaces. The hatch opens. Emmet runs out and WRETCHES into the ocean. Until he looks up to find:
A TREASURE CHEST floating by. He hauls it onto the deck. Opens it to find what you and I would call a KEYRING with aLASER POINTER. Emmet touches the ring.
EMMET’S VISION:
It’s a little clearer now. Imagine human beings but made out of thousands of LEGO bricks, shot through a shower door covered in soap scum.
The grown-up EXITS. After a beat, we see a giant HAND coming towards the camera.
EMMET WAKES UP!He drops the ring in shock. Then he puts it in his purse-backpack.
He looks at the ocean water and watches its composition change as RANDOM COLORED PARTS begin to intermingle with the water, like the confluence of two rivers.He looks out to the horizon and sees he has just entered a SEA OF UNUSED PARTS. At its center is an ISLAND covered in fog.
The others have come on deck to take in the sight.The fog clears, revealing an island with huge cliffs and a KRAZY KASTLE with a fantastically fortified WALL.
Vitruvius is looking the wrong way. Lucy turns him in the right direction.
It’s so creative - different from the other architecture we’ve seen. Our heroes knock on the big wacky door.
From the door emerges a silly LEGO face.
The door opens.
They stroll easily into a FANTASTICAL WONDERLAND...
It’s a cross betweenThe Point, Yellow Submarine, Terry Gilliam’s sketchbook, and a medieval castle.All manner of bizarre creatures roam about. It’s like looking into a child’s brain: wonderous and fluid and nonsensical.
KRAZY KINGKARL, a weird combination of disparate mini- figs arrives, riding a DINO-ROCKET.
MUSIC: An original song called “Why Not?” in which KING KARL explains that when your kreativity is truly free, anything can happen. Yep, we’re doing a Willy Wonka-style
MUSICAL NUMBER!
KING KARL shows them around his krazy kingdom!Each wacky environment is packed with Krazy Kreatures.
A bunch of bulls chase tennis players as they hit back and forth. They watch from a box as a bull knocks down one of the players.
RESUME SONG!
Filled with nonsensical charts and weird animals misspelling basic words on oddly-shaped chalkboards.
It looks like an M.C. Escher drawing come to life.
Happy artsy citizens and animals and weird morphy rocks and trees all gather for a BIG FINALE!
The finish. Emmet is pretty overwhelmed.
He gestures to the structurally unsound Kastle, which is is built on a single swirly stilt and looks like a giant teetering Mobius Strip with turrets.
Vitruvius pulls a frustrated Emmet aside.
The King leads them into a LOTR-style room, with a long table filled with a bounty of food.
Neckbeard hops onto the table and gorges himself. Also, we should mention that everything Neckbeard eats or drinks goes right down his throat and onto the floor. Yuck. Emmet gives Lucy a look. After a beat:
At the other end of the hall standBATMAN, a famous masked crime-fighter;DUPLO, an old-school Duplo figure; and BENNY, a spaceman.
He waits for them to be impressed, then steps back.
He points out the window to an odd, unstable-looking SPACESHIP, which is parked outside.
Benny holds a Mop.
BEAT. He looks so sad and lonely.
Emmet pulls out the MasterPiece. They all marvel at it.
VOICE (O.S.) Freeze!
REVEAL Bad Cop and his men! Guns trained.
He takes the MasterPiece and cuffs everyone else. Behind the cops and vikings stands a sheepish King Karl.
They all struggle but the Ninjavikes are too much.
Everyone looks at him real angry. Karl feels really guilty, and watches them get led out at gunpoint.
A medieval, dungeon-like conference room.Outside its glass walls, there are fruity creatures walking around. Everyone is there but King Karl.
He turns on a TELECONFERENCING DEVICE.It doesn’t work very well. To start, the image is a closeup of BF’s neck.
Everyone jumps out of their seats. Yow that’s loud.
Vitruvius lunges with his staff at the screen.
This hurts.
He pushes a button, switching cameras to Doris, who is tied in a big machine with a tube strapped to her head. She looks tired. Some of the life drained out of her.
Reveal the THINK TANK - an enormous aquarium of MasterBuilders hooked up to brain squeezers which suck the ideas right out of their heads. Including Doris.
He gestures to a mini-model of all his lands.It takes up substantial floor space.
Bad Cop and his support team are marching our guys through an underground parking lot. They open a door to a squad car, but guess who’s inside? King Karl!
He kicks open the door and smashes Bad Cop’s hand in it. He does some creative building and kicks everyone’s butts. He frees our heroes.
They grab the MasterPiece and run away.
They run up the stairs.
Sirens. Dozens of cop cars pull up, along with Robo- Vikings, Skeletons, EVIL MERMEN emerging out of the sea, and the VIKING SHIP FROM BEFORE.
King Karl and the others burst in from the stairwell.
All the whimsical creatures and citizens go steely and man battle stations. All manner of fantastical weapons, formidable looking creatures. Knights, cool-ass cars, every crazy looking thing a kid would think of for a war.
Tension mounts on both sides of the wall.
OUTSIDE THE WALL:The bad guys rush to the wall.
OVERHEAD: The two armies rush towards one another.
Cannonballs and flames emerge from the bad guy’s weapons, and from the good guys: Puppies. And flowers. Anything but an effective ballistic.
And it’s a MASSACRE. The fruity forces of King Karl are just no match. Their vehicles don’t drive. The bows and arrows shoot in curly cues. They are just impossibly overmatched. It’s an instant rout.
Chaos invades the kingdom. Our heroes scramble to find a way out as cop cars and RoboVikings burst through the Kastle walls.
Bad Cop bursts out the stairwell into the Kourtyard and chases after our guys.
Just then, Bad Cop pulls the bottom piece out of the Unstable Kastle and the whole Kastle tips over, and CRUSHES Benny’s spaceship to pieces. KABOOM!
Beat.
He points to a hugeCATAPULT. They all grab pieces of Benny’s demolished ship and the Kastle, put them into the catapult and jump inside of it.
They watch as King Karl tries to trip up Bad Cop, but falls to an attack of Skeletons. We watch him fall in SLOW MO... It’s super sad, you guys.
Duplo jumps up and just as Bad Cop arrives, STOMPS on the other end of the lever, FLINGING our heroes into the air along with all the remains of Benny’s spaceship.
IN MID AIR all the MasterBuilders mind-meld and quickbuild aROCKET-COPTER around themselves with the remains of the spaceship. Emmet actually helps. He may be getting the hang of this. As they chopper-rocket off:
We seeR2D2 in the backseat.
FIGHTER JETS PILOTED BY SKELETONS bear down on them!A really awesome DOGFIGHT ensues. Benny pilots, with Batman backseat driving, and Emmet manning the turrets.
They manage to stay ahead of the bad guy planes and fly through another TROMPE L’OEIL WALL.
The planes follow! AWESOME! Neckbeard eyes the MAP.
Benny evades the planes and goes through a portal!YES!
The Rocket-Copter crashes into the ground and breaks apart.
Our crew staggers out and looks at a haunting Old West Town. A LEGO tumbleweed passes by. In the distance we see the Volcano with Empura Tower inside.It’s eerie.
All agree: “Sounds good to me,” “Can’t think of a better spot” etc.
They’ve made a fire out of Moppy. Everyone sleeps. Neckbeard SNORES. Loud.
But Emmet can’t sleep. He stares off at the volcano- tower where his mom is being held. Lucy approaches.
She takes pity on him. Anyone would.
Lucy LAUGHS.
Emmet looks away, sad.
She pulls out a wadded-up metallicGUM WRAPPER.
He stares at it, then at her.
A long beat as they look at each other...
Emmet sits alone, looking at his sparkly reflection in the gum wrapper. As he puts his hands on it:
EMMET’S VISION:
SLIGHTLY CLEARER VERSIONS OF A HUMAN MAN AND CHILD IN A BASEMENT...
Finn goes off. Ted picks up a tube of Krazy Glue.
EMMET WAKES UP!
Emmet looks at the gum wrapper. Confused, he puts the wrapper in his purse/backpack. He is startled by:
Vitruvius stops.
Emmet builds himself a little mecha-bird, like the one that Vitruvius made earlier. It’s adorable.
The bird flies off a few feet and CRASHES into a tree, losing some pieces, then flies off all wobbly.
He pats him on the head and walks away.After a beat:
Morning is not much different from night at this dark place.
HELICOPTER SHOT: Our heroes hike over a hill.
At the crest they stop in awe at EMPURA TOWER, rising from the volcano like a midcentury cork.
R2D2 projects the blueprints for the fortress.
BEGIN OCEAN’S 11-STYLE PLAN SEQUENCE, in which we see the things actually happening as they are described!
SMASH! The elevator is destroyed by a descending elevator.
BACK TO SCENE
She grabs the plans.
PLANNING SEQUENCE #2:
SMASH! The window washing apparatus falls and crashes.
BACK TO SCENE
PLANNING SEQUENCE #3:
CRASH! Because Vitruvius was the foreman, the whole tower falls down.

BACK TO SCENE
Everyone AGREES to wing it.
A suspicious-looking DELIVERY TRUCK shows up.There’s one guard back there, talking on his phone.
Lucy appears behind him, grabs him and GAGS him.
Our gang quickbuilds the truck into an awesome TOWER CLIMBING DEVICE with suction cups. It begins its climb.
INSIDE the device, our guys rapidly move bricks so that the side facing the building is an 8-bit image of the landscape behind it, making it nearly invisible.
Some skeletons are in a board meeting.One looks outside and squints. He sees an 8-bit LEGO version of the landscape slowly pass by. Rubs his eyes, and it’s GONE.
The machine cuts through the window of an empty room. Our guys crawl inside, nervously...
The office we saw earlier.
She motions to an “IDEAS” notebook. There isnothing in there. There’s also a picture of the BF’s middle school class photo with Doris in it. The BF has drawn a funny moustache on her. Emmet smashes the picture in anger.
It’s the diorama family from earlier. Still frozen. The family members are separated, unable to touch.
Lucy tries to lift the daughter but she’s stuck to her chair which is stuck to the floor.
Emmet’s heart breaks.
They all play along.
Lucy starts to exit.
Emmet grabs some nearby tubes and goes to work. He’s not a quickbuilder, he’s more methodical. What’s he up to?
Emmet places a FOUR-WAY PERISCOPE in front of their faces.
They smile at one another. Emmet smiles. Lucy looks at him. That’s the guy she used to love.
The Black Falcon stomps down the hallway.People tremble in his wake. A flank of baddies stops and salutes.
“THE BLACK FALCON” You there. Listen to me.
REVEAL it’s not the The Black Falcon at all, but rather, Neckbeard’s head on top of a black-Sharpied R2D2.
“THE BLACK FALCON” I be trying it out. What do ye think?
“THE BLACK FALCON” Thank you. Arr.
“THE BLACK FALCON” Yes. It be a new throat something I’m trying out. Do ye like it?
“THE BLACK FALCON” Say, I beed wondering if you could do me a favor.
“THE BLACK FALCON” Take off your ninja clothes.
“THE BLACK FALCON” I be the boss, ain’t I be?
They do as instructed. Into their skivvies.
“THE BLACK FALCON” Now pull each other’s heads off and kick them way down the hallway where you can’t see them anymore.
“THE BLACK FALCON” Very good. Now count to one thousand.
Suddenly our heroes jump out from the shadows and put on the ninja clothes.
“THE BLACK FALCON” This be awesome.
Guards hear the door open and stand at attention.In walk NECKBEARD and the GANG, all dressed up as ninjas.
They stare up at the THINK TANK. All kinds of MasterBuilders hooked up to tubes. Awful. You can’t help but be upset at the inhumanity of the whole thing.
“THE BLACK FALCON” I uh...
Neckbeard’s head falls off R2D2. FIGHT! Our guys kick the crap out of the guards, who try and fail to sound an alarm. It’s a bar brawl, and Batman really shines.
Emmet rushes up into the Think Tank and finds his MOM. Everything else slows down. The sounds of the fighting fall away. He’s so glad to see her. Wouldn’t you be?
He pulls out the MASTERPIECE.
The Black Falcon has entered, flanked by Bad Cop and a legion of robo-soldiers!
Our heroes make a break for the exit, as Vitruvius squares off with the Black Falcon. Vitruvius spins, grabs some pieces of the Think Tank and uses his staff to guide an ELECTRICAL BOLT at him. The Black Falcon deflects.
RoboNinjas fling a RUBBER BAND from a PAPERCLIP (like when they got Doris in Act I) and it binds him instantly.
Our heroes book it. Emmet helps Doris.
Reveal Bad Cop and the RoboNinjas closing in on them.
Lucy stops, frozen...with INDECISION! She looks at Emmet. Emmet smiles bravely at her as he runs.
Lucy’s indecision made her fall behind and a RUBBER BAND flings and wraps her up! Neckbeard tries to change direction but winds up rolling down the hall.
Bad Cop et al reload.
Fling! Doris is wrapped up.
Fling! Emmet is wrapped up, with the MasterPiece still in his hands.
Neckbeard tries to go back and rescue them, but Batman grabs his head. Well, all of him, really.
Batman, Benny, Neckbeard and R2D2 run around the corner. Bad Cop has rounded up Lucy, Emmet, and Doris.
He puts on his LEGO sunglasses, tough cop-style.
Now Emmet, Doris, Lucy and Vitruvius are all tied up in a row facing the window. The Black Falcon inspects his prisoners.
He takes the MasterPiece out of Emmet’s hands.
This stings. He is not nice.
Ouch. Doris feels awful. The fighting’s stopped.
He pushes a big red button and the ground begins to shake. The Black Falcon smiles.
The tower begins transforming. Wings come out. Rockets fire, and the volcano ERUPTS! The towerBLASTS OFF like a rocketship with thunderous power. It climbs high into the air and SMASHES THROUGH THE LEGO SKY!
They stare agape out of the picture window as the world falls away. They are now in...
When we look below, we see all the lands we have visited, each walled silos apart from one another.Like the neurons in Emmet’s brain at the start of the movie.
PAN UP to find a scary, gray, HUGE FOUR-PEG LEGO BRICK, made out of millions of smaller LEGO bricks.The tower docks with it, a perfect tetris piece that makes it finally whole. This is the SpaceStationSUPERBRICK.
Inside it’s an enormous indoor INSTRUCTION SITE filled with instruction workers working on something big.The Black Falcon’s office penthouse is one of the top pegs, looking over everything like a control tower.Emmet notices his instruction worker pals from Act I.
Reveal a hugeROBOTIC MONSTER, a hundred men tall, like a mechanical Godzilla-raptor. It has a name plate reading “Brought to you by Empura”.
The Black Falcon looks down upon all his dominions, separated by walls, like LEGO sets lined up together.
A worker puts the last piece on. Another flips a switch. The SuperKragleThingy Part II (”SKT2”) lights up!
They watch below as HUNDREDS of Bad guys in helmets stream into HUNDREDS of cockpits all over the SKT2.They put in ignition keys in unison. The SKT2 thunders to life as the hangar door opens and it rockets out of the Superbrick...
CONTINUOUS
Hiding inside a supply closet, watching through a crack, are Benny, Neckbeard, Batman and R2D2.Guards looking for them.
He points across the hangar: There are a bunch of spaceships.
He’s right. They make a break for it, as the huge hangar door starts closing. They run up to a black spaceship.
Bad Cop spots them, flanked by RoboNinjas.
Bad Cop and the RoboNinjas run after them.
They run over to the blue spaceship and pile in just in time to BLAST OFF just as the hangar door closes!
The RoboNinjas pop off their ninja veils and pop on space helmets, climb in the remaining ships and take off!
The SKT2 lands with an earth-shattering THOOM!Animals scurry! It’s the most impressive thing in the universe.
BF’s Executive Window has become a huge monitor.The Black Falcon watches SKT2 on it and barks orders into a microphone.
The operators of the SKT2 follow his every command, until it stops at a tiny house. A hobbit comes out, pissed.
The hobbit’s jaw drops as he looks up and takes in the sight of the SKT2 belching a fine mist of glue all over him and the rest of the hobbit huts. He freezes!
The SKT2 LAUGHS the same way, then belches glue-mist over the entire land. Leaping deer freeze mid-leap. The waterfall stops mid-flow. When it’s done, the SKT2 LEAPS into the air like the Hulk, landing in...
Emmet’s house. SMASH! The SKT2’s foot smashes down. Pan up to show it about to freeze Emmet’s hometown.
Strapped in rubber bands, all our heroes can do is watch the horror on the monitors. Doris turns away.
Emmet looks around, and eyes the MasterPiece, sitting on the console as a paperweight. Next to it is the MAGNIFYING GLASS on the Black Falcon’s desk that he used like 70 pages ago. Emmet gets anidea.
Benny flies in crazy curly-cues as he avoids Bad Cop’s army of bad guy spaceships! He also jettisons small pieces along the way.
WIDE, we see the jettisoned pieces have formed skywriting:S.O.S.
He heads for the city way down below.
The SKT2 belches a gluey mist around the city!
Larry, the Barrista, steps out and does a full-on Laura Dern holy-flip-it’s-a-dinosaur jaw drop.The SKT2 stomps around belching.
The crazy MECHA-BIRD that Emmet built lands nearby.
The mechabird lands on the other barrista.
WE ZOOM INTO LARRY’S BRAIN! The same thing that happened to Emmet. Synapses fire. He gets....An IDEA!
Larry puts two pieces together. The 2001 theme plays... ...in our heads, but not in the actual soundtrack, because that would be super cliché.
His friend follows suit. This catches on, and the citizens of Legopolis start to build all kinds of crazy MECHA-BIRDS! Larry’s is the most fanciful.
The birds take off and start to flock together.They fly up and get in the way of the robot’s eyeline.
The remote camera focuses on Larry the Barrista.
While the Black Falcon is distracted, Emmet slowly hops over to the desk and bumps it, jostling the magnifying glass half over the edge of the desk. He shimmies under it. The magnifying glass lens concentrates the light and starts to BURN away the rubber band binding him up.
The Black Falcon goes back to barking orders.Meanwhile, the rubber band is almost burned through. Emmet struggles to move himself closer and BURNS his hand.
And he’s free! Yes! Behind BF’s back, he frees his mom and hands her the MasterPiece.
Doris is super out of it.
Emmet unties Lucy.
Emmet looks down on it. Then down on his arm. The BURN MARK from just a minute a go is in the shape of aSTAR.
Emmet’s eyes roll back. He can suddenly “see” the pieces, like we’ve seen other MasterBuilders do. But in a way that’s even cooler than how they did.He smiles.
The Black Falcon turns around, finally noticing.
He uses the MasterPiece, the loose pieces on the desk, and the Maker relics he’d been collecting the whole movie to build something strange. It’s a large circle with the laser pointer bouncing off the reflecting gum wrapper with the MasterPiece on top, forming a badass looking LASER PORTAL TO INFINITY.
Emmet slowly walks towards it, and light from the portal swells, enveloping Emmet completely. HeDISAPPEARS! And the portal with it!
The SKT2 is swatting away birds and staggering around.
The SKT2 lifts a giant mecha-leg above a crowd of barristas and cityfolk, who run in panic under the huge shadow, about to be crushed, when...
In comes Benny, Neckbeard and Batman in their spaceship! It shoots at the SKT2’s foot, and it pulls its foot away! Yeah! But their little pea-shooter can do little damage to this Goliath overall.
Hot on their tail is Bad Cop and the other spaceships, who pursue Benny’s ship through the skyscrapers all around LEGOPOLIS!
SO BEGINS THE MOST AWESOME AERIAL LEGO BATTLE OF ALL TIME!
The Black Falcon rocks the mic.
Vitruvius just suckerpunched him! The Black Falcon stares at Vitruvius, Lucy, and Doris, ready to fight.
Beat, then: The Black Falcon runs away! He opens his closet door, pulls anESCAPE HATCH, and shoots off.
They grab parts around the office and quickbuild their own spaceship out of a desk and whatever they can find.
The sky battle continues as the Black Falcon zooms down to the city, docks his ESCAPE HATCH SPACESHIP into the central cockpit of the SKT2, and assumes command.
He pushes a button marked “TURBO” and sends a nuclear bomb of Kragle Belch out of the SKT2’s mouth.
The army of citizens runs as fast as it can towards the SKT2 to avoid getting in the line of glue, but the Kragle blast arrives, and many of them are FROZEN!
MORE VIGNETTES AROUND LEGOPOLIS:
- A person is about to vote. FROZEN!
- Two teens with braces are about to have their first kiss on the prom dance floor. FROZEN!
- A baby is delivered to his father.
FROZEN!
- A street performer pretending to be a robot FREEZES!
Surrounded by laserbeams, Emmet is levitated through the universe. He is split into pieces - like he is becoming one with the fabric of the universe. He is traveling between the seams. Eventually rising straight towards the brightest star in the sky.
The closer we get, we realize that it is not a star at all, but a HOLE in the fabric of the universe.A hole just barely big enough for Emmet to fit through.Well, not quite big enough. He is stuck.
Emmet finally wiggles through a hole in a black piece of FELT FABRIC. He rubs his eyes and sees an entire human- sized basement in a LIVE ACTION WORLD.It’s like nothing Emmet has ever seen before.
He marvels at a coffee cup with pencils in it.Stares at his reflection in a snowglobe.
Something catches his eye. He turns around and sees
AN ENTIRE LEGO UNIVERSE laid out below. It’s a more mundane version of Emmet’s world: the lands are not as vast, towers not as tall, but it’s all there: representations of the city, waterfall, space cube, etc. Each area separated by walls - backdrops laid down by a collector. It’s pretty much the coolest collection of LEGO sets anyone could ever hope to build.
He looks at his feet and sees tons of loose LEGO parts. He realizes he’s standing in the middle of a bin of LEFTOVER LEGO pieces.
He looks up to seeTED, a human being, staring at him.
EMMET TED
DAHHH!!!! DAHHH!!!!
Emmet runs! Ted tries to brush Emmet away, causing a pen knife to fall on Ted’s hand.
EMMET TED
It just tried to kill me! It just tried to kill me!
BEGIN FUNNY CHASE SEQUENCE:
- Emmet grabs a cocktail toothpick and parries Ted’s flyswatter.
- Emmet jumps on Ted and Ted tries to get him off.Emmet clings to Ted’s Ear, screaming into it.
- Emmet punches Ted in the face while Ted swings and misses Emmet because he is so small.
Ted touches Emmet’s face. Emmet touches Ted’s face. They do a version of the mirror bit fromDuck Soup.
Emmet puts his hand up Ted’s nose.
Ted sneezes all over Emmet.
Emmet looks back towards the LEGO set.It’s all messed up from the fighting.
Finn comes bounding downstairs.
Finn stops in his tracks.
He gestures to a big box of Krazy Glue tubes.Emmet GASPS in horror.
Ted looks at Finn. Then at Emmet. Then at his glue. He gets something and hands it to Emmet. It’s a GLUE CAP.
Emmet turns and goes back through the makerpeeper hole, back through the portal. Ted picks up a bottle of Krazy Glue-dissolving MINERAL SPIRITS and turns to Finn.
Emmet careens through the laser tunnel towards LEGOPOLIS. Like a meteor reentering the Earth’s atmosphere.
Emmet hits the ground, making a LEGO crater. He raises the Cone of Power and dashes toward the SKT2.
Remember how I said there were hundreds of baddies in LEGO COCKPITS all over the SKT2?
Well, those guys jump out and form a ground army of ROBO- VIKINGS and SKELETONS and such! Emmet charges for them, seriously outmanned.
Leading the charge is Bad Cop in his Police-Spaceship. He has Emmet in his sights... He closes in, firing his blasters, when he looks up for a minute to see...
Benny’s ship, headed straight for him! Benny, Neckbeard, Batman and R2D2 dive out just before their ship CRASHES into Bad Cop’s, BREAKING HIM AND HIS SHIP TO PIECES! Benny et al land safely, right next to Emmet.
Emmet and the gang quickbuild-fight against the army. Neckbeard headbutts a row of skeletons- they fall like dominoes. Batman uses his Batarang to pop off the heads of a row of Robo-Vikings. But the badguy spaceships are still circling and shooting.
A FLEET OF SPACESHIPS arrives, filled with assorted characters. For example, Harry Potter and Indiana Jones and Han Solo are all in the Millennium Falcon.
Also, there is a spaceship driven by a bunch of MOPS.
Lucy, Doris and Vitruvius are in their office desk-shaped spaceship. Neckbeard shouts up from below!
ON LARRY THE BARRISTA
Looking at the the desk ship.
They do! Other people looking around follow suit, but in their own unique way. They all shoot off, until collectively, they have formed anARMADA OF SILLY SHIPS!
Even King Karl flies in on his dino-rocket and joins the air battle as the land battle wages on.
ON EMMET
Amid the massive battle on air and land, Emmet makes his way through the armies to the SuperKragleThingy2...
ON THE BLACK FALCON
Inside the SKT2.
He flips a switch and the SKT2 extends a mecha-arm, launching a huge MISSILE right towards Emmet!
Amidst the air battle, Doris looks out the window to see Emmet on the ground, about to be hit by the missile.
She steels herself. Gets some of her energy back.
But Doris is gone. She’s free-falling to the ground.
Lucy looks out to the Larry’s fanciful armada.Hmmmm...
Doris gathers her strength in mid-air.Starts building a protective shield to cover her and Emmet.Can she do it?
YES! She lands with confidence. Poise. STRENGTH. A shield around her son, as well as her loving embrace. BOOM! The missile explodes, but they stand firm.
Doris attacks the baddies with heretofore unseen ferocity. She breaks apart streetlamps and makes weapons. A mother protecting her son. She’s like a whirling, quickbuilding kung-fu superstar. She is the best fighter in the universe.
They start to fight TOGETHER. Kicking much butt. It’s superbadass and incredibly heartwarming to see them finally working as a team.
They make their way to the SKT2, but the Black Falcon sees them coming!
The SKT2 takes in a big inhale, about to freeze them... When in lands the most colorful and whimsical SUPERROBOT ever. Exactly opposite of the SKT2. It’s made up of all the ships that the citizens of LEGOPOLIS have built. This is WHIMSYBOT,and LUCY’s is in the center.
LEGO ROBOT FIGHT! WhimsyBot clocks SKT2! They knock over buildings! WHAMO! It’s awesome! The WhimsyBot gains the upper hand, knocks the SKT2 on its BUTT!
This gives Emmet and Doris a clear pathway to climb on to the SKT2 and scramble up to the cockpit where the Black Falcon is. Doris rips open the cockpit with her bare hands. She jumps in and kicks the Black Falcon’s ass.
Emmet scrambles to the SKT2’s mouth, holding the Cone of Power at the Kragle. But at the last second, his route is cut off by the BLACK FALCON, holding Doris hostage.
EMMET GETS AN IDEA - we see this as we have before.
And he runs away... or does he? No! He runs around the back of the SKT2 and tunnels in through the back of its head! He lifts the CONE OF POWER!
And he caps the Kragle.
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A beat. Then the whole SKT2 EXPLODES into a million LEGO pieces! Emmet and Doris and The Black Falcon are thrown high into the air.
OVER AT THE VOLCANOacross the world: The Black Falcon falls into the Volcano lava lamely. PLOP.
DOWN IN LEGOPOLOIS, everyone GASPS. It seems the SKT2 explosion killed Emmet and Doris.
That’s when two enormous five-fingered LEGO clouds shaped like hands, one grown up one, one kid one, enter the frame from above. THE HANDS OF THE MAKER(s). They catch Emmet and Doris in midair, and put them together safely on the ground.
Emmet holds the original Kragle tube, and gives it back to the Cloud Hands, which take it up in the sky in a marvelous light show. Think the Abyss, or Close Encounters. Everyone stares at it, admiring the artistry. The lights shines in their faces.
We see Finn and Ted playing together. Being silly. They “flip” the Krazy Glue end over end into the GARBAGE.
The lands begin to UNFREEZE!
- A person votes!
- Two teens with braces finally Kiss!
- A baby is delivered to his father.
- the robot performer unfreezes! But doesn’t move. :(
The frozen diorama family UNFREEZES, and wraps each other in a big family hug.
The walls of the different worlds come CRUMBLING DOWN. Knights hug cops; Wizards hug robots; everyone CHEERS. Batman hugs Princess Leia, who is creeped out.
Lucy emerges from the wreckage. She looks around.
Emmet hugs Lucy and theyKISS as well as a minifig can. Meanwhile, Neckbeard and Doris check each other out a little.
SMASH TO BLACK.
