00:00This singing invitation is a great idea, fellas.

00:15Here's another one, Simon.

00:18Look it, Theodore.

00:22Oh, I sure hope all our relatives can come next week.

00:26But of course they will, my good man.

00:30Gee, Alvin, I've never seen you this excited about seeing your relatives before.

00:35Well, as one gets older, Dave, one craves a sense of community, of union, in short, of family.

00:45And the fact that he expects to land the lead in the community play and wants to show off.

00:52Yeah, it's called Pilgrims, Adventures in a New Land.

00:57They're going to broadcast the entire production live.

01:03Yours truly will be the toast of the town.

01:08What about you, Simon?

01:10Oh, no, Dave.

01:11I'm no actor.

01:12I'm a behind-the-scenes man.

01:15Given my technical expertise, I would expect to be chosen light and sound master.

01:20Too tough.

01:22I want to do the costumes.

01:27Hey, guys, come on.

01:29We've got to get over to the playhouse and request our assignments.

01:33Here you go.

01:36See you later, Dave.

01:38Oh, and Dave, make sure you mail those invitations out pronto.

01:43Yeah, we don't want anyone to miss it.

01:46Come on to my house, my house.

01:51I'm going to give you candy.

01:53Come on to my house, my house.

01:56I'm going to give you apple and love my apricot too.

02:00Come on to my house, my house.

02:02Come on.

02:03Come on to my house, my house.

02:05Come on.

02:06Come on to my house, my house.

02:08I'm going to give you big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big.

02:12Hey, come on to my house, my house.

02:14Looks like I got a birdie.

02:29Okay, keep your head down.

02:34Oh, sorry, Mr. Ferguson.

02:36Hey, do you think everything will be ready for the family get-together?

02:40Not unless you give up golf.

02:42I hate this game.

02:46That's it.

02:49Dave! Dave!

02:52Oh, hi, fellas.

02:55Dave, where are those invitations?

02:58Easy, Alvin. I sent them out four days ago, just like you asked.

03:03Oh, no.

03:06As a matter of fact, Grandma Henny's arriving tomorrow.

03:10Boys?

03:12Fellas, are you okay?

03:14I mean, I know Grandma Henny can be tough, but underneath she's...

03:19It's not Grandma Henny.

03:21It's our casting assignments.

03:24Ms. Carey says we should celebrate the Pilgrim Spirit of Adventure

03:28by trying something...

03:30She's evil, Dave.

03:35She cast me as the lead.

03:39I haven't acted on stage since I was humiliated in The Merchant of Venice.

03:45Simon, you were three years old.

03:47I think I'm going to be sick.

03:50What about me?

03:52I don't know anything about lighting.

03:55I'm just not maniacally inclined.

03:59That's mechanically inclined, Theodore.

04:02See?

04:03And me, a costume designer.

04:08I've never even seen a sewing needle.

04:11This is the most miserable day of our lives.

04:16Listen, if you guys don't take risks and tackle what you're afraid of,

04:21you'll never grow as people.

04:23Dave, if I were interested in personal growth, I'd wear high heels.

04:29Did I ever tell you guys one of my most embarrassing moments?

04:35I was on this amateur show, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

04:41Please welcome the singing cowboy, Little Davey Seville.

04:47Oh, give me a hope

04:50Since I couldn't remember the words, I made up my own.

05:05Oh, give me the west

05:08Where the men are the best

05:12And the sun sets are golden to boot

05:17Where dreams all come true

05:21And nobody is blue

05:24And where everyone sits

05:27Shoot or shoot

05:29That's when I decided to become a songwriter.

05:40What are you saying?

05:42I'm going to grow up to be a seamstress?

05:45All I'm saying is, taking chances is what life's all about.

05:50Remember, the well-beaten path rarely leads to discovery.

05:56Hmm. Oh, yeah?

05:57Well, you won't drive into quicksand if you stay on the main road.

06:03Used to have bald feet on the ground

06:09Suddenly the world starts spinning round

06:12Things got changed, everything's new

06:14I'm a fish out of water, haven't got a clue

06:17I'm losing my mind and this is what I see

06:19I'm going crazy, come along with me

06:22I'm going crazy, come along for the ride

06:27I'm going crazy, feeling like jackal and hide

06:32Got to stay up till the morning and night

06:35We're going crazy tonight

06:36I'm going crazy, come along for the ride

06:42I'm going crazy, feeling like jackal and hide

06:47Got to stay up till the morning and night

06:50I'm going crazy, you're going crazy

06:52We're going crazy, crazy, crazy tonight

06:55Oh, yeah!

06:59I believe these are mine

07:02Fellas, what's going on?

07:07Welcome to the world of risk takers

07:10Try again

07:15What is life without new hopes?

07:21Be bold, Simon

07:22Project new dreams

07:25Where one has the freedom to attempt the unknown

07:30I'm going to bomb

07:32A little more De Niro

07:34And a little less Ethel Merman

07:37Dave?

07:43Get that light out of my eyes

07:45Sorry

07:46Where's my room?

07:49Down the hall

07:51Good night, Grandma

07:52Good night

07:53Hey, Alvin

07:55That's a fantastic Indian costume

07:58It's supposed to be a turkey

08:01Look, I love you guys no matter what you do

08:06But fear shouldn't keep you from challenging yourselves

08:09Pleasant dreams, fellas

08:12Fat chance

08:14This is just too much

08:17I think I'm losing my hair

08:19Will you guys keep it down?

08:22I've got worries of my own

08:24Help, help, help, help

08:29I knew this would happen

08:40You're gonna make fools out of all of us

08:48And on live TV

08:50And on live TV

08:50I've got relatives in the audience

08:54You shouldn't try new things

08:59You can only fail

09:00No, no, no

09:03No, no

09:04No, no

09:08His Shakespeare for Tots performance was a Hall of Fame blunder

09:15But now in Pilgrim's Adventures in a New Land

09:19He's added new meaning to the word humiliation

09:22Let's take a look

09:24Uh, what is life without new hopes, new dreams

09:31Where one has the freedom to attempt the unknown?

09:36The undisputed ship of fools grand prize winner goes to Simon Seville

09:41The undisputed ship of fools grand prize winner goes to Simon Seville

10:03Simon Seville

10:05Seville

10:06Seville

10:07Seville

10:08Seville

10:09Seville

10:09We have dared to forsake much for the promise of a new land

10:23Hey

10:25Hey!

10:38Theodore!

10:42Well, Mr. Risk-Taker, I hope you're proud of yourself!

10:47Grandma Henny?

10:49That's Officer Henny to you!

10:52What made you think you could do something you've never done before?

10:55No?

10:56It's not enough to make a fool of yourself!

10:58You had to drag the whole family down with you!

11:05Dave! You've got to help us!

11:09You've got to keep the other relatives from coming!

11:13Before we humiliate the Seville name!

11:21Too late!

11:25Uncle Leo! Welcome!

11:28Come on to my house, my house!

11:31I'm gonna give you candy!

11:34Come on to my house, my house!

11:36I'm gonna give you apple out and drop my avocado too!

11:42Come on to my house, my house, come on!

11:44Come on to my house, my house, come on!

11:46Come on to my house, my house!

11:48I'm gonna give you pick-up a dish!

11:51Hey!

11:53Come on to my house, my house, come on!

11:54Come on, come on to my house, my house, come on.

11:58Come on to my house, my house, I'm the one who you can be.

12:03Come on to my house, my house, I'm going to be for you every day.

12:08Come on, come on.

12:38They're all heading over to the play.

12:41I wish I was in a galaxy far, far away.

12:46Remember, guys, life is full of ups and downs.

12:50But as long as you get back up, you're never a failure.

12:55Excellent, Dave.

12:56Another truly inspiring bit of advice.

13:00Well, listen, I've got to go to the airport and pick up the rest of the relatives.

13:04We'll all see you at the play tonight.

13:06Break a leg.

13:08What kind of a thing is that to say to your kids?

13:12It's a tradition in the theater, Theodore.

13:15It means good luck.

13:17Well, I don't feel lucky.

13:19Fear not, boys.

13:21I've got a foolproof plan.

13:23Forget it, Alvin.

13:27Yes, everyone is ready for the event of the year.

13:31Pilgrims, Adventures in a New Land, starring Simon's...

13:34All right, what's your plan?

13:36It's great.

13:38We get to miss the play and be heroes.

13:41Now, here's what we do.

13:44I get some cards.

13:45Okay, everybody ready?

13:57Ready.

14:00Ready.

14:00Here goes.

14:03Mama.

14:04That's your cue.

14:06Oh, my goodness.

14:08There's a baby in the gorilla cage.

14:12I'd better find its mother, even though I'm supposed to be starring in the community play tonight.

14:19What?

14:21Alvin, this costume is ridiculous.

14:24Simon, just get your girdle on.

14:26Oh, help me.

14:28Oh, my baby.

14:35Alvin, the doll's stuck in the tree.

14:40Mama.

14:41Oh, nuts.

14:43Oh, what's a mother to do?

14:46Don't worry, ma'am.

14:47I'll save your child.

14:49Even though I'm supposed to be at the community play tonight.

14:54Oh, oh, please, kind sir.

14:57Please help me.

14:58Alvin, get the doll out of the tree.

15:02I'm trying.

15:04Oh, if only I had better light.

15:07Let me help you.

15:09But, Theodore, you're supposed to be at the community play, too.

15:15Saving lives comes first in my book.

15:18Mama.

15:21Oh, thank goodness.

15:24Don't worry.

15:33She's been growing like a weed lately.

15:37Mama.

15:46Mama.

15:46Oops.

15:48Let us help.

15:50Stand back.

15:51She's, um, very shy.

15:54Simon.

15:55Mama.

15:55Help me out here.

15:57Here I come, sweetie.

15:59Oh, don't worry, Angel.

16:01Alvin, I'm not putting my hand in that gorilla cage.

16:06I know.

16:07We'll get my fearless brother, Simon, to retrieve your baby.

16:12Quick.

16:13Go get him.

16:13Now.

16:16Oh, Simon.

16:20Where's that baby?

16:23Uh-huh.

16:28Back off, banana breath.

16:30This baby's coming with me.

16:34Theodore, cut the lights.

16:36Okay, Theodore.

16:44Oh, her head's backwards.

16:49Mama.

16:50Babies are so flexible at this age.

16:55I'll go give her mother the good news.

16:58Mama.

16:58Oh, my, my baby.

17:04Oh, not to worry.

17:08Is there anything more beautiful than a mother and child reunion?

17:18Mission accomplished.

17:21Five minutes till curtain call, and we're 20 minutes away.

17:25Pretty fantastic what you boys did back there.

17:31Ah, ha, ha, ha.

17:33Well, it's nothing your average risk-taking adventurer wouldn't have done.

17:39Say, aren't you boys in the big play tonight?

17:43Yes, but it was a sacrifice we felt we had to make.

17:48No one can blame us for that, right?

17:50All our relatives were coming, too.

17:53They'll be so disappointed.

17:56But it's too late now.

17:58The play starts in less than five minutes,

18:01and it's at least 20 minutes away.

18:04Yeah, we'd practically need a police escort.

18:09Oops.

18:10Hop in, boys.

18:11I'll get you there.

18:12I wonder what's keeping the boys.

18:27Probably just a little stage fright.

18:30Like a certain cowboy I once knew.

18:33Oh, another ten seconds, and it would have been too late.

18:36This is your lucky day, boys.

18:39Oh, yeah.

18:40Prices, everyone.

18:42I feel like a guy on death row.

18:47I saw you boys at the zoo.

18:49It wasn't us.

18:51Well, too bad, because I saw three chipmunks

18:55put on one of the best performances these eyes have ever seen.

18:59The acting, the costumes.

19:02What about the lighting?

19:05Inspirational.

19:06Why, those three could have done anything.

19:09They could have?

19:11Absolutely.

19:12Well, too bad it wasn't you three.

19:15Five seconds to curtain.

19:18She really thinks we can do it,

19:21and she's a tough nut.

19:24Break a bone.

19:25You boys were fantastic.

19:47Were they fantastic?

19:48Hey, I'm speaking.

19:51Fantastic.

19:52Fantastic.

19:54Here's to family whose confidence and support

19:58makes risk-taking a lot easier.

20:02Speaking of risk-taking, Dave,

20:04we've got a great surprise for you.

20:07We've entered you in a celebrity golf tournament.

20:11What?

20:11And it's tomorrow,

20:14so all the relatives will be able to come.

20:17But I don't know what I'm doing.

20:23Neither did we.

20:24And you've got all night to practice.

20:27That's not enough time.

20:30Besides, my golf clubs are in terrible shape.

20:33Not to worry, Dave.

20:35See?

20:36We've welded them back together.

20:39Oh, I can't do this.

20:42Now, now, Dave.

20:43Taking chances is what life's all about.

20:47Just do your best, David.

20:49Tell me this is just going to be seen by a few people.

20:52Nope.

20:53Televised.

20:54Coast to coast.

20:56Remember, Dave,

20:57if you never take risks,

20:59you'll never grow as a person.

21:01Oh.

21:02The well-beaten path

21:04rarely leads to discovery.

21:06You've got to believe in walking.

21:12Yes, you do.

21:13If you want to go to the boat.

21:17Don't stop yourself from having a little.

21:22And you can have it all.

21:25Alvin, where'd all these people come from?

21:28They just watch.

21:30And you think they have

21:32your dreams come true.

21:34Sing it now.

21:36Believe in what's around you

21:38and good things will come true.

21:41Don't stop you

21:55and give a nolon for it.

21:56And this is just how it's there.

21:58And this is so cool.

21:58I'll take it away from someone else.
