Scene 25: Cliffside Asylum
[The scene transits to Cliffside Asylum. Judy and Nick peek out from a rock and see the
rather creepy looking building with a vine design on the front. They run to a toll booth,
avoiding the view of the wolf guards. Nick makes rapid signs with his paws to Judy,
confusing her. Nick slips through the other side. The white timber wolf picks up Nick's scent
and starts to look back where Nick is clinging in suspension. Judy howls. The guard howls
and the other guard goes up to him.]
Larry: Gary, quit it, you're gonna start a howl!
Gary: I didn't start it!
[Judy howls again. Gary howls, followed by Larry, then all of the guards begin to howl]
Judy Hopps: Come on!
[As the wolf guards howl, Judy and Nick run up to the entrance and hide from sight.]
Nick Wilde: You are a clever bunny.
[They look up and see a pipe. They enter a room through the sewer grate. Judy uses her
phone's flashlight to search. Hospital beds have been pushed up against the wall.]
Judy Hopps: It looks like this was a hospital.
[They see a door. Nick slowly and cautiously approaches the door to open it, slowly extends
a paw, then he steps back and pushes Judy forward.]
Nick Wilde: You know, after you. You're the cop. [annoyed, Judy turns off her phone's
flashlight, opens the door and looks around. a room with an examination bed and three
screens with a CAT scan of a brain is seen through the doorway. Nick peeks out through
Judy's ears and looks around] Okay, all clear. [He slowly moves backward, Judy's ears
spring back into place. She rolls her eyes, sighing, turns on her phone's flashlight again, and
looks around the room]
Judy Hopps: All this equipment is brand new. [takes pictures of the equipment]
Nick Wilde: [nervous] Carrots... [points down revealing claw marks on the floor.]
Judy Hopps: Claw marks.
Nick Wilde: Yeah, huge, huge claw marks. I mean, what kind of animal-
[A tiger pounces against the glass, startling Nick and Judy shocked. Judy and Nick walk
through the passageway seeing other predator mammals in cells, all in a savage state. Judy
shines the flashlight up into the top left corner of one cell where two pinpricks of light are
visible, and they are startled by a growl from Manchas, who is in his cell.]
Judy Hopps: Mr. Manchas. [Nick looks at Manchas's file. Judy and Nick walk up to another
cell and find Otterton inside. His glasses are broken, his sweater is gone and he runs under
the bed snarling] It's him! We found our otter. [to Mr. Otterton, reassuringly] Mr. Otterton, my
name is Officer Judy Hopps. Your wife sent me to find you. We're gonna get you out of here
now.
[Mr. Otterton starts to come forward, sniffing and eyes black, before he pounces against the
glass, making Judy and Nick jump back in surprise.]
Nick Wilde: Or not. Guess he's in no rush to get home to the missus.
Judy Hopps: Eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen... Not including Manchas, it's... It's fourteen.
Chief Bogo handed out fourteen missing mammal files. They're all here. All the missing
mammals are right here.
[They hear a mechanical door opening. As the door opens, Judy and Nick run and hide in an
empty cell. Then, they hear a familiar voice.]
Leodore Lionheart: [vexed] Enough! I don't want excuses, Doctor, I want answers. [Mayor
Lionheart and Dr. Madge Honey Badger enter the room]
Dr. Madge Honey Badger: Mayor Lionheart, please. We're doing everything we can.
[Judy uses her phone to record a video of their conversation]
Leodore Lionheart: Really? 'Cause I've got a dozen and a half animals here who've gone off
the rails crazy, and you can't tell me why! Now I'd call that awfully far from "doing
everything"!
Dr. Madge Honey Badger: Sir, it may be time to consider their biology. [Judy gives a
confused look and Nick gives a suspicious look]
Leodore Lionheart: [in angered confusion] What? What do you mean "biology"?
Dr. Madge Honey Badger: The only animals going savage are predators. We cannot keep it
a secret; we need to come forward!
Leodore Lionheart: [mock thinking, putting a finger to his lips] Hmm, great idea. Tell the
public. And how do you think they're gonna feel about their mayor... [gestures to himself
before yelling right in Dr. Badger's face] WHO IS A LION?! I'll be ruined! [Judy and Nick look
at each other in worry]
Dr. Madge Honey Badger: Well, what does Chief Bogo say?
Leodore Lionheart: Chief Bogo doesn't know. And we are going to keep it that way.
[Suddenly, Judy's phone rings. Her parents are calling her. She tries to turn it off, but the
ringtone echoes.]
Judy Hopps: [hushed] No, no, no!
Leodore Lionheart: Someone's here!
Dr. Madge Honey Badger: Sir, you need to go. Now! Security, sweep the area!
[Mayor Lionheart and Dr. Madge leave the room as the alarm sounds. The door of the cell
Judy and Nick are in closes. They try to open the door until they see wolves coming to the
door.]
Nick Wilde: Great! We're dead! We're dead, that's it. I'm dead, you're dead, everybody's
dead! [leans against a toilet without realizing]
Judy Hopps: [gets a sudden idea] Can you swim?
Nick Wilde: What? Can I swim? [Judy puts her phone in a plastic bag] Yes, I can swim.
Why?
[Three wolves enter the room carrying taser guns with laser lights, but one wolf notices the
toilet post-flush and cocks his head to the side with confusion. Judy and Nick slide down the
pipe and fall out, going down the waterfall, Judy in a diving position, Nick twisting and turning
in weird positions while screaming, before falling into the water below. Nick emerges and
looks for Judy.]
Nick Wilde: Carrots! Hopps? [worriedly] Judy! [Judy emerges, holding her phone in the bag]
Judy Hopps: [panting] We gotta tell Bogo!
Scene 26: Dancing with Gazelle
[In his office, Chief Bogo looks at the Gazelle dancing app and sees his face on a tiger
dancer.]
Gazelle App: Wow, you are one hot dancer, Chief Bogo. [Chief Bogo grins, then he quickly
puts his phone away as Clawhauser enters his office]
Benjamin Clawhauser: Chief Bogo!
Chief Bogo: Not now!
Benjamin Clawhauser: Wait, is that Gazelle?
Chief Bogo: [tries to cover his phone with his hooves] No!
Gazelle App: I'm Gazelle, and you are one hot dancer.
Benjamin Clawhauser: You have the app too? [he's so overjoyed that he puts his fists up to
his own face in excitement] Aww, Chieeeeeef!
Chief Bogo: [embarrassed] Clawhauser! Can't you see I'm working on the missing mammal
cases?!
Benjamin Clawhauser: Oh, oh, oh, yes, of course, about that, sir... Officer Hopps just called -
she found all of them! [Chief Bogo shows a stunned look]
Gazelle App: Wow, I'm impressed!
