We Bought a Zoo (2012)

"We Bought a Zoo" is a heartwarming and uplifting movie released in 2012. Directed by Cameron Crowe, this film tells the true story of Benjamin Mee, played by Matt Damon, who decides to purchase a struggling zoo to give his family a fresh start after the loss of his wife. With the help of head zookeeper Kelly Foster, portrayed by Scarlett Johansson, they embark on a challenging journey of renovating and reopening the zoo to the public.

The film beautifully captures themes of love, family, and resilience, with a wonderful ensemble cast including Thomas Haden Church, Elle Fanning, and Colin Ford. Through their efforts, the family not only brings the zoo back to life but also finds healing and a renewed sense of purpose.

If you are looking to experience the sounds and emotions of "We Bought a Zoo," you can play and download the soundtrack or watch the movie to enjoy its heartfelt story and memorable performances.

A couple of interesting facts about the tigers.
A couple of years.
A dollar fifty?
A good one. Oldie but a goodie. What do you think?
A handle on it.
A hard hitting exposé about world peace.
A life that is beyond
A new medication, so let me just...
A new start.
A story, it belongs to you
A weak enclosure between the jaguars and the tigers.
A week before we open for the inspection.
A week before we open, according to my information.
A whimsical portraiture of recycling.
A zoo?
About this.
About two minutes!
About your lack of effort, man. Okay?
AdiĂłs.
Admit it! You wish I wasn't here!
Afternoon, Solomon!
All right, do we need anything else while we're in the land of people?
All right, forget that.
All right, here we go.
All right, it's gonna be fine.
All right, let's let this shirt start over!
All right, McGinty, so get this.
All right, so Rosie and I'll
All right.
All right.
All right. Come on. Got an inspection tomorrow.
All right. Give me that camera. Say, Spar.
All right. Let's see.
All the way to the moon and back.
Almost.
Am I doin' anything right?
And 47 other species, seven of which are endangered.
And a lion. And a jaguar.
And all of them are saved the second we make this deal.
And all the software, and laptops,
And all the time, he's looking back at me with her eyes.
And apps in the world aren't gonna change that.
And because I'm your father and I'm the only one you've got!
And don't think I don't notice you just changed the subject.
And drag you out here?
And he stole $500 from me,
And how much did they cost?
And I invite you to tell me about that sometime.
And I just have to say that I love this job.
And I just want to say that
And I know what's in the Jaguar, too.
And I love you guys.
And I love you. And those patched elbows.
And I promise you, something great will come of it.
And I saw her and I literally stopped, like this, just stopped.
And I still have 15 seconds of courage left.
And I think you'll be very excited at what's available.
And I write about the end of the world from the point of view
And I'd have taken full credit.
And I'll get the dish back to you within the week.
And I'll put them in the exhibit in the morning.
And I'm here shovellin' shit.
And I'm sorry, I thought you and Lily were friends.
And I'm sorry, I thought your friends would come out and visit you, man.
And if we're standing near each other on New Year's,
And if you stick with me, I will give this everything.
And if you won't listen to your brother, the accountant,
And it ends with you authentically living
And it got better for a while.
And it led me to that.
And it's gonna take everything to make it work.
And it's got cool animals in it and some pretty great people, too!
And live in a state of sponsored pity.
And make sure the lights are off in the side room?
And maybe we could feed a couple of 'em to the tigers.
And most of all, it's the kids. They're the biggest triggers of all.
And my big boy, Dylan. And our dog, Leon.
And none of her lightness.
And now he's into portraits of decapitations.
And one more of me just throwing her over.
And Peter and Robin do... Well, they basically do everything.
And Peter is our visionary.
And pick up a shovel and dig a hole!
And put it in your heart.
And remember,
And Rhonda?
And seriously, I'm avoiding half the aisles.
And she just turned everybody against you.
And so I thought to myself, 20 seconds. Right?
And so, our adventure begins.
And sponsors of animal greatness.
And thanks to my Katherine,
And that only comes
And that's Crystal, our capuchin.
And that's why I came. You're never that polite. What's up?
And that's why you're so hard on him.
And the line of people in this world who really care about you ends here!
And the monkeys need fruit as well.
And the snakes, and the monkeys.
And the way he just drives me nuts, he makes me crazy.
And the world.
And then there's the remaining staff on board and, you know.
And this is our zoo now, I guess.
And this is Solomon.
And watch in a moment
And we call it... You ready?
And we do a whole thing about how life is elemental,
And went, Oh, my God.
And what we do... Dyl, check this out.
And you asked Mommy that?
And you feel like you can't hear her voice?
And you, I mean...
And you're gonna not get eaten!
And you've moved into a dump.
And,
And...
Are the other two inside?
Are they really gonna be psyched?
Are you hungry? I think so.
Are you hungry? I think so.
Are you ready to go to bed?
As you can see, the tigers know that you're here,
As you do on your artwork, you'd have it all.
At least he'll be moving, right?
Attempt to start over.
Aw, Dunc.
Awesome.
Awesome. I'm gonna take baldness off my list of things to worry about.
Back home, every place reminded me of her.
Back in the 1980s!
Back to you guys in your cozy little studio.
Backwards and forwards.
Basically, I was just an observer and a writer.
Bear shit!
Because it's a good dream!
Because this is where I met your mom.
Because those were the months that her
Because you wasted all our money!
Behind that front is a front!
Behold, Mac. Our new logo.
Behold, Mac. Our new logo.
Believe me.
Ben contained him, so he's fine.
Benjamin Mee is a fraud!
Benjamin Mee.
Benjamin Mee.
Benjamin, I've arrived at a thought.
Benjamin, it never feels right.
Benjamin!
Benjamin?
Benjamin. Ben was my dad.
Benji.
Besides today's theft,
Betsy, we're told that this is gonna be the wettest summer in over 100 years!
Bob Dylan.
Boy, it's a shame we... We can't just...
Bravery.
Buddy, if you don't eat the food
Built by Peter MacCready.
Buster, this is a big gun and I don't want to shoot you.
Buster!
Buster!
Buster! I know you're out there! Buster!
Buster?
But are you for real with this?
But good luck.
But I keep getting calls on the overdrafts on these checks.
But I know we can make the inspection.
But I noticed that your kid really pushes your buttons.
But I will need everything from you and we are going to reopen this zoo.
But I'm just tellin' Kelly here that she's gotta...
But I've never done anything like this.
But if you still want to befriends, you know, I'll still be your friend.
But it's got rips and everything everywhere.
But maybe my older brother didn't see this place.
But no, no, no, no. He's supposed to come
But she was right there.
But staying here and going down in flames,
But the financial climate being what it is,
But the funny thing is that
But then they wake up another day.
But they don't feel really sick.
But this is a rookie mistake.
But this is my first real adventure.
But we live with a seven year old girl who still believes in the Easter Bunny.
But what I'm hopin' for is like a big backyard.
But, as one parent to another, I...
Buy the property and then just relocate the animals?
By buying a broken down zoo in the country,
By Solomon's enclosure. Bye.
Can we see the otters? I'd love to see the otters.
Can you check on the invoice order?
Can't you see his legs? He's suffering, man.
Catch her spirit.
Catch her spirit. That's right.
Causing damage.
Cereal bar for you. You're late, dude.
Cerrado.
Charley, is really kneading us well, sir.
Circus money, man.
Circus money, yeah.
Cocktails!
Come here! Oh, God! Don't turn around.
Come on, baby!
Come on, come on. We're late, guys. Let's go. Come on.
Come on, Dad. Let's go home.
Come on, give me a break. You've come this far. Huh?
Come on, guys. Grab a box, man. Go, go get a box.
Come on, hi. Watch your step.
Come on, honey, come down for us!
Come on, man, we talked about this.
Come on, man, we're almost there.
Come on, Solomon, come on, baby!
Come on, Solomon, come on, baby!
Come on, Spar! Come on, come on!
Come on, sweetie. Come on. Okay, where did Mom get the backpacks?
Come on! Come down, Spar! Come on down!
Come, MacCready, please come, please.
Condiments.
Congratulations to you.
Congratulations.
Contain the dark lord.
Corn's ready!
Could you possibly be making a joke right now?
Could you possibly point another fan at me?
Cut!
Dad, here he come...
Dad, I have a sick amount of homework tonight.
Dad, I'll just get waffles.
Dad, it's whatever. Look, I'll know it when I get to school.
Dad, someday you're gonna have to eat some of that lasagna.
Dad, there's nothin' you could say to me
Dad!
Dad!
Dad? Dad, the peacocks are hatching!
Dad.
Dad. Nobody's gonna give an F to a kid whose mom died six months ago.
Daddy, I can't sleep. The neighbors again.
Denies me, frustrates me.
Did you even read that book? Man...
Did you give 'em all names, Rosie?
Dig you out. My goodness. There, it's Miss...
Do something!
Do you feel like you can't see her?
Do you have any idea what they put in water?
Do you know what she did for you?
Do you think I want to come out here
Do you think I want to do this by myself?
Do you want to... Do you want to keep this?
Don't be a tiny person.
Don't keep me around out of...
Don't make me get angry.
Don't move, Mr. Mee! He might be faking it.
Don't take a gift that's not given to you yet, now. All right?
Don't tell anybody what I heard, okay?
Don't turn around! Turn around. Turn around!
Don't... Don't look now. You're happy. Ha ha!
Duncan, Duncan, Duncan! That defeats its own purpose!
Dyl, can you hand me my phone?
Dyl!
Dylan likes Lily.
Dylan really loves you, you know?
Dylan. His name's Dylan. His clothes are fine.
Each of you, I've come to know in some small way.
Especially somebody with kids. Why?
Even talk to someone like me?
Everybody says you're a dick.
Everywhere.
Except for the books and the telephone.
Favorite bushes grew flowers all over our neighborhood.
Ferris lusts you.
Ferris, that son of a bitch!
Ferris!
Filippe's on Third Street. Balboa Park.
First day. it's my first day.
For angry men. With large mustaches.
For the land alone.
For what?
Forget all that. Don't do what I did. Travel the stages of grief.
Fourteen, I guess.
Frame's a little loose. I...
French braids. Big in the '90s.
Full and total lockdown! Buster!
Gathering stories
Get an umbrella.
Get down off the rock, Spar!
Get him some medicine and invest in a little bit of hope!
Get it done!
Get off the rocks! Get off the rocks!
Get out, get out, get out.
Get us open by July 7th. 7!?
Glad you guys are enjoyin' yourselves.
Go home.
Go into the commercial shrimping business and call myself Captain Dunk.
Go out.
Go to the city. Go find your girlfriends.
Go to the tiger enclosure and give them some water.
Go.
Goldfish, I have.
Good aim.
Good night.
Good word.
Good, go get it. We're gonna need it.
Good.
Good.
Got it, thank you. Hey, look happy. Smile.
Got it!
Got it!
Got it.
Got Little Dom's.
Great, I keep her home from school one day and she gets eaten!
Great, thank you.
Great.
Great. Let's schedule a pop by.
Have every house cat from here to El Cajon.
Have you begun to draw up an end of life plan?
Have you even been inside yet?
He built the enclosures that set the standards
He can still rip your arm off, though.
He doesn't walk with lions.
He even flew into the center of Hurricane Charley.
He expelled you because you stole.
He has no more money. He has no idea what he's doing.
He interviewed dangerous dictators.
He is going to end up selling this place to somebody for cheap.
He just got here and he's already thinkin' of quittin'.
He knew the ins and outs of strange and exotic adventure,
He looks tired, Dad.
He never cheated the Wall of Death!
He said he was goin' to think. He does that sometimes.
He says it all the time. He won't have anything left to say in this century.
He stole all of my ideas. And he gave them to the...
He thought they would all visit. But nobody came.
He was 770, but... But he's been stressed out.
He was toyin' with you, my boy.
He'll be here with the big van, but it'll be expensive!
He'll never last.
He's a crook!
He's been hit by a powerful tranquillizer!
He's dehydrated.
He's fine.
He's gonna be okay.
He's gotta come down from there.
He's gotta eat his food, he's gotta drink water,
He's gotta take his medication.
He's in a lot of pain. I can't stand to watch it.
He's in so much pain.
He's like this exotic creature from the city.
He's off the street and up in the woods!
He's our eldest. He's 17. He's a Bengal tiger.
He's ready. Let's call the vet.
He's so patronizing to me!
Hello, Kelly.
Help me with your sister!
Help me with your sister!
Here is the great Bob Marley.
Here you go, boss.
Here you go, guys. Here's your bag, sweetheart. Here.
Here you go, one, two. There you go.
Here.
Here.
Here's the revised Duncan plan.
Here's to us.
Here's what I said.
Here's what she's saying.
Hey, Buster.
Hey, good boy, good Solomon! Good Solomon! Good boy! Good boy!
Hey, guys, thanks for coming out and welcome to your zoo.
Hey, guys.
Hey, guys. I forgot to buy butter.
Hey, hey, Solomon! Who's a handsome boy?
Hey, hey. So.
Hey, I need you for a second. I gotta...
Hey, I'm pretty sure this is none of my business,
Hey, listen, I gotta go.
Hey, listen.
Hey, Rosie?
Hey, Rosie. Your dad around?
Hey, there, Buster. Are you missin' the meds?
Hey, wait, I feel like I should be helping you here.
Hey, why didn't you go to Sadie's for the play date, sweetie?
Hey, you want some food?
Hey!
Hey!
Hi, Benjamin!
Hi, boy! Hi, boy! Fix it, fix it, would you?
Hi, Lucy. When are you gonna have those babies?
Hi, Mom.
Hi, Mommy.
Hi, there. Good morning. Welcome, welcome.
Hi.
Holy shit. Okay.
Home Depot.
Honey...
How come you don't tell stories any more?
How do they send someone home early for moodiness?
How far are we from the eye?
How great is that?
How important is butter to this meal tonight?
How long you been doin' this job?
How much of this can we get done in a month?
How much?
How would you choose?
How'd you get the nosebleed?
I am alive
I am filled with Scotch and bitterness and impure thoughts!
I am surrounded by hundreds, probably thousands of killer bees.
I asked him if you guys needed any help.
I asked you so politely, I didn't think you'd come.
I barely hear you
I believe you should court the girl we met at Jamba Juice.
I called the vet from San Diego!
I called them all myself and I invited 'em.
I can almost live with the artwork.
I can hear Ferris right now! MacCready!
I can't even find you in there. You're like a Chilean miner.
I can't stand it here! Look, can't you see that?
I can't stand it here! Look, can't you see that?
I cannot let go.
I did it because I was desperate!
I did not appreciate the way he kicked that garter snake.
I didn't think this one was gonna make the trip.
I didn't waste our money. I thought you liked it here.
I do have enough to get us by.
I do, and I also own it.
I don't come up with the prices.
I don't doubt that.
I don't even care. Who cares?
I don't fraternize, Mr. Mee.
I don't know how to say this.
I don't know what that means, but I don't believe it.
I don't know.
I don't know. I was thinkin' maybe
I don't know. it's a sensitive school.
I don't know. it's our only option.
I don't speak Spanish.
I get it now, okay? I get why you can't stand me!
I got a big crush on you, and I just can't get a handle on it, so.
I got your sister home sick from school.
I guess I didn't listen to something she told me or somethin'?
I guess I just can't talk to girls that well?
I guess I just don't understand how you can call this place home.
I hate you? Wait a second.
I hate you? Wait a second.
I have 'em. Yeah, got 'em. Got 'em.
I have a question for you.
I have that.
I have you down as an assistant.
I hear you may not be staying here much longer.
I heard you!
I just can't get
I just want you to be happy, man.
I keep forgetting! it's all about you!
I know all about MacCready.
I know exactly how this goes.
I know she knows.
I know, man, I know.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I like it when you talk.
I like it.
I like the animals, but I love the humans.
I like the jumpsuit.
I like your drawing.
I like your feathers.
I like yours on your head. And I like your...
I look forward to New Year's.
I love her. You know how I picture her?
I love it. But,
I love new. Hell, I'm new! Excuse my language, but I'm new.
I love that you were named after Bob Dylan.
I love that you're telling stories again.
I love that zoo!
I love your hair. I loved your sign, Lily. I love you.
I love your mom.
I mean, a minute ago, he was into paper airplanes,
I mean, Dylan. His eyes.
I mean, how could this even happen, man? I don't even know how you did this!
I mean, how much is this gonna cost?
I mean, I go to Home Depot. I go to the nine miles away Target.
I mean, I liked her.
I mean, I thought you liked me!
I mean, if Charles Manson needed a personal muralist, you'd be the guy.
I mean, it... It did, out here.
I mean, stationary hills. We...
I mean, there are still cars and all.
I mean, we've gotta get him into the enclosure.
I mean, what do I know? I was spoiled. I had the real thing.
I mean, what kind of regular person just up and buys a place like this?
I mean, who doesn't, right?
I mean, you're gonna have to put some more skin in the game, boss.
I mean, you're gonna have to put some more skin in the game, boss.
I met her there.
I miss our home.
I miss Sheila, man.
I missed people.
I moved up.
I need to go over with you about the upcoming inspection.
I never know what to say to you.
I quit.
I quit.
I said human interaction.
I said.
I saw him up here on the hill by himself. Utterly free.
I see one of these tigers is 17 years of age?
I see you working in a field, in Bolivia,
I shall try to start over.
I slipped on the roof and banged it.
I started questioning my entire being back there on the 405.
I take Visa. I prefer MasterCard.
I talked to MacCready. Hello, children.
I think I'll just find my pillow.
I think it's time.
I think so.
I think we should give you an online column.
I think we're jumpin' the gun.
I thought this was a dream come true for us!
I thought this was...
I thought, I thought, I thought...
I thought, maybe...
I told you...
I understand, but we're not there yet.
I want everyone to stay off their walkies.
I want to get a shot of that.
I want to make his enclosure bigger.
I want to see you here opening day.
I want you to know, I think you're incredibly pretty.
I was named after a dog named Dylan.
I was walkin' by.
I will, I'll kill him.
I wish Dylan had come with us. This is fun.
I wish Dylan were here, too.
I wish we could tell Mom that.
I would love to teach you how to shave!
I... No, no, no, no! Wait! Solomon!
I'd make that first priority, as well.
I'd never gone and talked to a total stranger before.
I'd say you're lookin' at about a buck fifty here.
I'll be open by July.
I'll be taking notes in preparation for the actual inspection.
I'll call Kelly.
I'll cut off his head with a sword.
I'll get a close up on your nose.
I'll kill him without a thought.
I'll kill him!
I'll kill him.
I'll pay whatever it takes!
I'll take this side of the hill!
I'm 28. I never go out.
I'm fine with my squeaky window, Mr. Mee.
I'm glad you're excited about it.
I'm goin' for it.
I'm goin' home.
I'm goin' home.
I'm gonna be honest with you.
I'm gonna distract him from the other side of this enclosure
I'm gonna have to go take a look around.
I'm gonna live here. I'm gonna keep you.
I'm gonna say this one more time, buddy.
I'm guessing that Rosie was more like your wife and Dylan's more like you
I'm here every day.
I'm here for a pop by, Mr. Mee.
I'm just gonna take a little walk and wrap my brain around this one.
I'm never talkin' to you again, you little asshole!
I'm not gettin' after anything like that.
I'm not good with people.
I'm not lettin' you out of the car till I get a new word.
I'm not sure if all Dwyer's clothes fit him
I'm not takin' one for the team, if that's what you're gettin' after.
I'm pathetic!
I'm saying, we just let him live for a couple more weeks.
I'm sick of sympathy.
I'm so disappointed in you.
I'm so glad you're open.
I'm sorry I brought you out to the sticks.
I'm sorry I messed up the box of snakes.
I'm sorry that you didn't get more of a childhood, man.
I'm sorry that your mother got sick when she did.
I'm sorry. Mister! Your bulbs.
I'm sure I'll have plenty of reports.
I'm tellin' you the truth.
I'm the same way.
I'm tryin' to figure it out. There's no manual for what happened.
I'm worried Lily's gonna hurt Dylan.
I'm your fan, man. Don't you know that by now?
I'm... I've had it with whatever.
I've been an adventure addict my whole life.
I've been checking his bills.
I've been coming here long before you.
I've been with him for 13 years.
If anybody has any problem, I don't want to hear about it
If I can get an inspection set for the end of June, right?
If I wasn't wearing this suit, I would be dead in an instant!
If Katherine were here, she would have come up with
If no one buys this property soon,
If only I could talk to her about getting over her.
If the paper goes down or gets sold, you'll still be safe.
If you don't go to any of the places where you and Katherine used to go.
If you focused as much on your homework
If you had to choose between people and animals, really quick,
In fact, I rather enjoy it.
In some quarters, sympathy would be considered the appropriate response.
In the current economic environment,
In the front of their two inch canines.
In the trunk of this car is haddock.
In time, then.
In time. In time.
Insane debt!
IPocalypse.
Is butter worth your dad driving 18 miles
Is going to care and maintain these endangered animals.
Is it time?
Is just a hint of what's yet to come!
Is she a stunner? I mean, is that what they call a stunner now?
It all goes downhill very fast.
It always was.
It breaks my heart.
It doesn't work like that.
It fell. Okay, get it.
It has complications to it, Mr. Mee.
It has guided me my entire life.
It hurts me to tell you this.
It is in the center console.
It is the best job in the world.
It just turns out that she's here, too.
It says, Listen to your heart, not your brother.
It started out as mine, but she kind of adopted it.
It was a Category 4 storm.
It was kind of their fault if you think about it.
It was like Altered States. I saw an iguana and a dwarf Indian.
It's a bad idea. Let me call you back.
It's a little dark.
It's a little high, 'cause somebody had them deliver on a Saturday.
It's a little high, 'cause somebody had them deliver on a Saturday.
It's a lot of work, but I think I can do it.
It's a lot to take on. All of us.
It's a new day for you, Mr. B.
It's a real fun party.
It's a shame about the new boss, huh?
It's a weird house.
It's a zoo.
It's a zoo.
It's a zoo. I'm moving to a zoo.
It's a...
It's about Rosie, man.
It's all good.
It's all right. It doesn't hurt that bad.
It's been the best one of all because it's personal.
It's causing insidious harm or ruin.
It's cold.
It's going to happen.
It's gonna be very hard to find rolling hills in the city.
It's gonna happen.
It's good, right? I mean, I think it could be a series,
It's great. I get it.
It's just not a great time for me.
It's just that he's a fortune to get here and...
It's just that it says Rosemoor Animal Park.
It's just us, Mr. Mee.
It's just... it's just too bad.
It's lasagna. Dinner for three.
It's not about where an adventure ends,
It's only February right now.
It's only two zebras.
It's our old friend.
It's really well worn.
It's Rhonda. She's leavin' for some job in Mexico
It's the most dangerous animal in the forest.
It's the wrong day for this to be happening, man.
It's Walter Ferris.
It's your dream!
Just be yourself. This one's for Spar.
Just can't get a handle on it.
Just give me one second.
Just knowing you, Rosie, right now,
Just like Sheila did.
Just make her a nice zoo screen saver and she'll be just as happy.
Just set it up. What else do we have?
Just, literally 20 seconds of just embarrassing bravery.
Keep MacCready away from him. We don't need any bloodshed today.
Kelly and maybe even get MacCready.
Kelly, how's it looking for the giraffes?
Kelly. Benjamin.
Knock it off! You misheard me!
Know what? it's all about new. People love new.
Ladybugs.
Lam not!
Last item.
Let that sweatshirt start over.
Let's go see Solomon's enclosure.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's just hang out.
Let's not rush into things. Let's not...
Let's shave!
Let's vote.
Let's... Let's just take it all in first.
Like the killer bees.
Like they do in the wild.
Like you were talking about cornflakes.
Like...
Listen, you're not talkin' to 'em correctly, yet, boss.
Listen.
Little Dom's, the coffee shop, that... That's a big one.
Long day for you, Ben?
Long day for you.
Look over here, guys.
Look, am I nuts to say that I missed you like crazy a lot? A lot.
Look, Dad'll be back soon. He's just having a mood.
Look, do... I'm beggin' you, do what other people do. Go to Vegas.
Look, honestly, I don't know.
Look, I am the one who gets the emails
Look, I heard you admit it to her.
Look, just be yourself.
Look, maybe it's supposed to be this way. I don't know.
Look, my cameraman just handed me his umbrella
Look, these animals need somebody to rescue them.
Look, they're not called cages, they're called enclosures.
Look, this doesn't feel right.
Look.
Look. I'm tryin' to give 'em an authentic American experience.
Look. The world is gonna get very small
Lots of them don't have hair. So that's good.
Loud noises scare the big cats.
Love the house, smells and all. Right?
MacCready, I would love it if you could come and meet me
MacCready's gettin' deep tonight!
Make sure that this gets in his food
Man, all right.
May I have your attention, please?
Mayday, mayday! Kelly, do you copy?
Me, too.
Me, too.
Mmm hmm.
Moist.
Mommy would always be in your heart and my shoulder.
More bad news.
Mr. Devereaux, Dylan's art teacher,
Mr. Mae? We've got the bill from the feed company.
Mr. Mee, we have to talk, okay?
My brief marriage, that was a cage.
My brother can't take no for an answer.
My girlfriends, they text me,
My older brother didn't let me blow Dad's inheritance
My visions! My waste canals!
My...
Nathan, we're running out of yams and monkey chow.
Nathan? Nathan, go to two.
Nathan? Nathan, wake up!
Never.
New guidelines are being raised this year.
New opportunities, new schools, just new.
Nice, very nice.
Nine miles from the nearest Target store.
Nine miles there. Nine miles back.
Nine miles.
No one gets paid, Ben...
No one in the zoo community has ever heard of you.
No reason. Lots to do here.
No tag backs! I know.
No way.
No, Benji.
No, but thank you for telling me, again!
No, he's right. They should be here.
No, I can't stand by and watch this happen!
No, I can't... I can't go hiking.
No, it's not the prices. it's me.
No, man.
No, no, no, I want you to have eggs, man.
No.
No. At least now I know the real reason why you hate me!
No. At least now I know the real reason why you hate me!
No. Listen.
No. That's okay.
Nope. I'm good.
Not at night.
Not bad? Huh?
Not bad. Actually, they're... They're pretty docile.
Not mine.
Not why I'm here, bro.
Nothing can stop you.
Now I'm in the restaurant. And I'm terrified.
Now what do we have here?
Now why would you buy this place?
Now you'll notice here that I am stringing this cable
Now you're talkin' to 'em. There you go.
Now, hang on. So, okay. Stop.
Now, we're responsible for the upkeep, not just the granting of licenses.
Of course, we have lions, man.
Of the 20th century, all right?
Of the generation that's gonna save it.
Of the spirit.
Oh, come on.
Oh, God, the only way to fix it is to jimmy it from the inside.
Oh, God.
Oh, man!
Oh, my God.
Oh, my... We used to go there all the time!
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
Oh, wow.
Oh, yes! This is fantastic.
Oh!
Oh! That thing.
Okay, got it.
Okay, guys, this is the whole storage side of the house!
Okay, he gave us 12 top priority items,
Okay, look, the Jaguar Restaurant, guys!
Okay, terrific. Let's go.
Okay, two more left.
Okay, we've had some problems, man, but we're figurin' it out, okay?
Okay, well, we all know that I stink at speeches, so I won't even try.
Okay! Let's open the gates!
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.

Okay. $74.39.
Okay. All right.
Okay. All right.
Okay. Okay.
Okay. Okay.
Okay. Spar has a...
Okay. That's a... Whoa. Come on.
On my veloured couch with your two children.
On this July Eth, 2010,
Once in a lifetime.
Once in my life.
Ooh! Hey!
Or do what I did, when Sheila left me.
Or else we and all these animals are gone.
Or four.
Or throw it away.
Our adventure is just beginning.
Our inspection happens
Our local hero.
Our mommy died.
Out in little pieces
Over here.
Over the lakes
Over the minds
Over the moons
Over the ponds
Over the rains
Over the trees
Part of the humane care of an animal is preparing for the inevitable...
Pastries, forget about it.
Patience, my son. Patience.
Peaches.
Peaches. How do you keep 'em all straight? You have three named Peaches.
Peafowl are very resilient animals.
People!
Pernicious mean?
Pizza. Pizza, pizza, pizza.
Please, don't take offense if I don't hit on you.
Please, she's way younger than me. She's 12.
Please! Let me lay you off so you can get the benefits!
Plus, I wasn't named after Bob Dylan.
Pretend we're at the zoo.
Quite a lot's been written about
Raise the barrier heights, too.
Really?
Reindeer slippers.
Remember? She said sometimes people look really sick
Reposition those suckers and boom, there goes your carotid.
Rickety posts.
Right there.
Right.
Right. So what did we talk about? A new place.
Ring around the Rosie.
Rosie is seven.
Say, Peaches.
See my friends.
See that? He likes us.
See, this is all the snake food, right?
Serious is the smell in that car.
Seriously?
She calls it your circus money.
She did. This was a...
She is happy here.
She keeps callin' me to go hiking.
She knew exactly what you would do.
She lives on the property.
She loved red kites and blueberry Pop Tarts.
She loved you.
She said that it looked worse than it felt.
She still hasn't seen me.
She used three exclamation marks.
She was
She was sitting right there in that chair.
She's a stunner.
She's about a foot taller.
She's gotta go have some time to herself.
She's never far away.
She's still lookin' out for you, man.
Sheep farts in aspic!
Sing along
Sleep well, Benjamin. Sweet dreams.
Sloane Animal Park!
Smells good.
So don't... Don't give up on our adventure.
So he's occasionally depressed.
So I think the question we need to ask ourselves as a family
So I would like to declare us all modern day adventurers.
So I'll come back every day at 4:15 and bring you a sandwich.
So I'm givin' him a little bit of leeway.
So I've asked for June 30th, which would
So just do me a favor.
So just leave them in the travel crates
So stop moping around this place, man!
So that's perfect.
So the truth is, we don't really know how much longer he's got and I...
So there's a few decisions
So they're showing off today.
So turn me into
So we pay her cash under the table out of my salary.
So we're all good there.
So when they attack, they bite you,
So you woke up this morning and you thought to yourself...
So your question is?
So, Ernesto and his friends are plastering posters everywhere
So, I don't know what you've heard,
So, just tell me what, you know, just give me a list of what to do,
So, technically, that's 18.4 miles for butter.
So, when you get a second, there's a couple things
Solomon! Can you hear me?
Solomon! Come here! Come here! Come here!
Some of that belonged to me, Dad!
Somethin' really funny and clever for me to say,
Something that I can't see
Sometimes you don't know what it is until you see what it is.
Sorry. And I'd go to the Target if you want.
Spar, who you just met, the tiger? He's gonna need some special care,
Spar's gonna hate it, but maybe he'll come down.
Start cliff diving in Acapulco at the age of 38.
Start handicappin' horses?
Strange but true.
Stupidest thing I've ever done. Thank you.
Substantial, you know, just rolling hills.
Sunflowers.
Sunlight.
Sure! Thanks!
Sweetheart, Mr. Stevens is a stranger, honey.
Take it from a guy who spent six months on a commercial fishing boat in Bali
Take your pulse with their teeth,
Talkin' to the animals has to be done in a super specific way.
Tell me when it gets severe!
Tell me, Dunc.
Text me.
Thank you for coming.
Thank you for your concern.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you. I think.
Thanks for saving the animals.
Thanks.
Thanks. I mean, I don't know anything about animals and zoos.
That guy there, that's Spar.
That I'm aware of.
That is a new smell! Wow!
That is bold stuff.
That is bullshit!
That is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my entire life.
That no kid should ever have to go through,
That way, you'll be protected. This is the way we live now.
That's a good idea. All right,
That's gotta be some kind of record.
That's how you talk to him, Benjamin.
That's it! That's it, that's it! Go, go there!
That's just how that one went.
That's just how that one went.
That's Kelly.
That's me. Kelly.
That's more harsh than what I'm sayin' to myself!
That's more sympathy! No!
That's not what I meant.
That's regulation.
That's Rhonda over there.
That's right, Robin!
That's true joy
That's what they do before you become chips and salsa.
The adult boomer male.
The door seems to be stuck!
The endgame on a big cat can be very costly.
The estate's been maintaining it for now, you know, just to keep it up.
The garage.
The hills don't have to roll, right, honey?
The innovative design of these enclosures
The kids are gonna be so psyched.
The lock is broken and I feel like the only way...
The money came through.
The more, the merrier. That's what I always say, right?
The night that we were tucking you in,
The posts in what?
The precipitation tonight
The Rosemoor property has some challenges.
The secret to talking is listening.
The story, it belongs to you
The tree fell down in the rain last night!
The zoo account is empty.
The... The animals need to be...
Their happy is too loud.
Then it was shut down.
Then listen to your wife
Then you can figure out, is it what it is?
There is a new shipment of exotic snakes,
There you go.
There you go. I 9011 Ya
There's a darkness here that we need to deal with.
There's a nice treatment of the word love.
There's no sun in the underworld.
There's one, there's two, all right. Goodbye.
These animals will probably have to be...
They all quit.
They can actually detect the pulse in your aorta.
They can't tell you, but they show you. You know, they show you.
They couldn't have gotten through even if they were here.
They don't get along. We've...
They freak me out.
They haven't been called cages in like a century.
They should be here.
They wake up one day and they say,
They're all in there. Says you don't have any more money, man.
They're all triggers, man.
They're gonna be here today, Benjamin. I know it.
They're gonna have those memories forever.
They're gonna... They're gonna get all your crackers.
They're primates, they sound like people laughing in the distance.
Thinkin' about leaving.
This hurricane, sir,
This is Benjamin Mee.
This is Buster. He's our 650 pound North American grizzly.
This is exactly what we've been looking for.
This is life or death, man.
This is Lucy and Wesley, and Peaches.
This is my cousin Lily. She's 13. She can't legally work here,
This is Nathan. He does our water and feed.
This is Robin Jones. Peter MacCready.
This is Rosie, my daughter.
This is the story before the story.
This is what happens when people have a you know what occur in their lives.
This is what you want. It's not what I want!
This is where you and you begin.
This is your cushion.
This is... This is simple destiny.
This money is your ticket out.
This one seems really not happy with me.
This place is perfect. Why didn't you mention it earlier?
This was a fully functioning zoo until two years ago.
This whole spiritual journey or whatever.
Though we don't endorse all that he stood for.
Tigers don't growl or roar, they chuff.
To all our favorite songs
To be a part of
To Benjamin.
To extend this? Come on, you're too smart not to.
Totally scary.
Tough to give some of these things away, right?
True, but this situation... I want to offer the word unique.
Trust me.
Try, go on.
Tune the radio
Turn off the lights in the garage.
Two hundred pounds' worth.
Two medium priority. We have one month.
Ugh!
Ugh!
Uh huh. But I know what to do.
Uh oh! Whose happy is loud?
Uh... Wow.
Unless you don't want to be happy.
Until after Walter Ferris is gone. Got it?
Very heavy rain and plenty of lightning continue throughout the week.
Video
Wait a minute, turn around. Let me see.
Wait a second. Is that it?
Wait for me, Dad.
Wait. Hold on.
Wait. Wait! Wait, wait!
Walter Ferris. I'll kill him!
Wanted you to see his wall mural.
Way to go, Mr. Mee!
We are now running out of options.
We bought a zoo!
We can scare him into goin' back in.
We can't handle the publicity of an escape! It'll ruin us.
We could be hobos.
We did it!
We do.
We encourage creativity at the school.
We got opening day comin' up.
We had the vet come out from San Diego, took a look at him.
We have a full day of house hunting planned
We live on a snake farm!
We love you, Spar!
We need a new store.
We tried luring him with food.
We used to have three times the staff.
We walk
We'll do this again sometime.
We're a three strike school, Mr. Mee, and today was his fourth strike.
We're comin' up the foothill.
We're goin' for the 7th, 7/7.
We're gonna open in a few days.
We're gonna take a vote.
We're just dealin' with a little bit of hip dysplasia.
We're sunk. We're doomed.
We've only just really arrived here, Mr. Ferris.
Welcome to Rosemoor Animal Park.
Welcome to the business of live animal maintenance, Mr. Mee.
Welcome to your zoo, Benjamin Mee.
Well done!
Well done.
Well,
Well, actually, the estate is sellin' the property with the stipulation
Well, because we're livin' the story.
Well, can we use the ladder?
Well, complicated's okay.
Well, hang on. What is all the cheering about, then?
Well, how do you figure that?
Well, I can see why you still carry the torch.
Well, it looks like he's decided to pay a hello visit.
Well, it's great to meet all of you. I'm Benjamin.
Well, let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Well, no, he... He's also very old,
Well, not even water?
Well, now, that was a little misguided.
Well, she said...
Well, talkin' to girls is easy. They'll tell you everything.
Well, that's a bit complicated.
Well, that's good enough for me.
Well, they will.
Well, this is it.
Well, we got through today.
Well, what doesn't?
Well, what else do we have around here?
Well, yeah, of course,
Well, you don't even know me well enough to say that!
Well, you see, it's a...
Well, you're the man.
Well...
Well...
What about the Easter Bunny?
What am I gonna do? What am I supposed to...
What are we gonna do?
What are you gonna do to help?
What do I know? I still live with my mother.
What does perni... pern...
What is it?
What is so great about being happy?
What is that coming from? Rosie! Come here, look! Dead rats!
What ya doin'?
What you got her painting there, Rosie?
What, you want to know how to shave?
What?
What?
What? Oh, no! Aha!
What's your favorite movie?
Whatever!
Whatever.
Where are you putting this?
Where is Ferris?
Where is my old friend MacCready?
Where is my old friend MacCready?
Where'd you get your shoes?
Where's our lunches?
Where's the sun?
Where's your zookeeper?
Which means Bernie's hung over.
Who clearly planned a financial future for you.
Who doesn't?
Who's a handsome boy? Keep working! Hurry up! Would you hurry up?
Who's that?
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Mr. Mee, right now,
Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa!
Whoo!
Whoo!
Whoo!
Whoo!
Why are you saying that?
Why did you buy this place?
Why don't I just pack us up? We'll just go on the road together.
Why don't we just tell each other what we wish the other guy would say?
Why don't you just go over to the garage
Why not?
Why not?
Why not?
Why would an amazing woman like you
Why? What do I look like in the hat?
With kidney disease. That's in remission now.
With lions.
With that expression in my eyes?
With... Well, with no regard for cost.
Within a 20 mile radius.
Works at the Jaguar. That's it.
Would somebody just get my tranq gun?
Would you just do what's good for you? Will you listen and get off the rock?
Would you just listen sometimes and do what's good for you?
Would you like a brochure?
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow. it's humiliating. You seem really calm.
Wow. Just wow.
Yah!
Yay!
Yay.
Yeah, and the world, yes.
Yeah, but we're not even close to ready.
Yeah, Kelly Foster.
Yeah, look, he's 14, and he went through somethin'
Yeah, looks like Bernie's closed for renovations.
Yeah, that's Spar, right here. He had a recent bout
Yeah, the USDA inspector, Walt Ferris.
Yeah, we got it.
Yeah, we got through today.
Yeah, well, maybe I'll get a prize.
Yeah! Deep!
Yeah?
Yeah?
Yeah? How long do those last?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. And you know what I found?
Yeah. Take it all.
Yes, I can!
Yes, it is!
Yet, stop just before zebras get involved.
You are gonna love your new enclosure.
You can never get away from them, no matter where you go.
You can't force a dream onto someone else, Dad!
You can't see how selfish this is,
You changed Dylan and Rosie's lives.
You comin'?
You did it, man. You went to the circus.
You did your best, Dad.
You didn't read the label.
You do somethin' for the right reasons,
You don't have to leave so fast.
You don't think Mom knows?
You either know where the book is or you don't.
You give him a lot of rope.
You good?
You gotta eat that food to get all the meds.
You gotta let a little sunlight in. Okay?
You gotta look at this. She left a deposit slip.
You gotta stick with me.
You gotta tell me what you think
You guys makin' dinner?
You have three fans blowing on you.
You hear that sound? Those are lemurs.
You just get that hat?
You just sit here and feel sorry for yourself, man!
You know I found some, right?
You know nothing about animals.
You know that I disagree
You know that I disagree
You know what the right thing to do is!
You know what? Like this. it's our home.
You know what? Whatever is the laziest word
You know, actually,
You know, go through it in an itemized way, but,
You know, he doesn't have it yet, but he'll learn.
You know, I gotta get back anyway. Want to just do it next week?
You know, my brother is actually coming for dinner tonight.
You know, sometimes all you need is 20 seconds of insane courage.
You know, there's a major buzz waitin' for you inside that meat.
You know, tigers have special sensors
You know, we have one Target and it's nine...
You know, we're all in cages, man.
You know, you gotta focus, man.
You know? Once you see what it is,
You like to get a little wild at night, huh?
You must like it.
You never ask me how I'm doin'.
You never even taught me how to shave.
You only have to be courageous for 20 seconds.
You reserve me nine tickets, 'cause I'm gonna bring the in laws.
You stole!
You understand?
You want a sandwich?
You wanted me to remember that thing,
You were blessed.
You would have done the same for me.
You'd make a bad investment, need to start over,
You'll be dating seven year olds.
You'll be viral.
You'll have to make straightaway, Ben.
You're a good guy.
You're a great dad.
You're doing very well.
You're drilling yourself into
You're eight inches short.
You're freakin' kidding me! it's a zoo!
You're free. You realize that.
You're funny with everyone else, but never with me, which I find funny.
You're gonna find that now, the buyer is now the king.
You're handsomer than the other dads.
You're not gonna say yes, are you?
You're not supposed to say that in this century.
You're some random guy from the city.
You're the man who just stared down a 750 pound North American grizzly.
You're the owner. You have to okay this.
You're three weeks overdue on the purchase...
You've never done this before! You don't know how this goes!
Your happy is too loud?
Your neurotransmitters are gonna be firin'
Your signal is growing
7/7. Well, you know what? I'm gonna be there.
10:00, this place'll be packed.
$84,000, man. Oh, my God.
7/7. 7/7.
All right, good night. Night.
All right. Hell, I'm new.
All right. Ladies first. Where are we going?
and I... Go home.
and I'll do it. Are you sure?
and that he eats it all. Okay.
And they're really good. Yeah, well,
and you don't get your medicine,
And...
And... Look.
Anybody, ideas? Loud noises scare the big cats.
Are you serious? No.
Benjamin, hike her.
Benjamin! Look, if he moves to attack me,
Benjamin! Yeah! Mr. Mee!
Bigger? Bigger, we need it much bigger.
But as it is... Dad, I finished The Seventh Tower.
Bye, Dad. Bye, sweetheart.
Classy. Real classy.
Come on, come on. We're really late.
Come on, come on. We're really late.
Come on, get off!
Come on, Spar! Come on! You're an animal! You can't do this to me!
Dad, can you get my hair? Yeah.
Dad, stop. No, I can fix it.
Did I look like that? Worse.
Don't repeat it to me like I'm a kid. It's going to happen.
Dump me there inside the fence. Ready, one, two, three.
Dylan! Dad! Dyl?
Dylan? No, something's wrong!
Exactly. So we think alike.
Exotic? My son? Yes.
For Bruno. Buster.
Full alert! Copy, full alert
Good job. Thank you.
Good job. Thank you.
Good morning. Let me help you there. I gotcha!
Gracias, Lupe. Look.
Have you been drinking? All night long.
He didn't know Mommy. I know, but he should have.
He's okay. It's going to happen.
He's slow, I can outrun him. It's not a bullfight.
Hello, Benjamin Mee. Take your thing.
Hello, MacCready. Hello.
Help me, damn it! Help me, damn it! Help me!
Help me, damn it! Help me, damn it! Help me!
Hey, back off.
Hey, brother, you need a map? Sure. Thanks.
Hey, do you want somethin' to drink? I don't drink.
Hey, do you want somethin' to drink? I don't drink.
Hey, good to meet you. Hi.
Hey. Nope. No.
Hey. What else you got?
Hi, buddy. Hi, Sharon.
Hi, Lily. She's being home schooled.
Hold on. So, guys, get pots, pans,
How are you? On my best behavior.
How's your family? Great to see you.
I can force a dream on you! Why are you yelling?
I love you, my brother. I love you, too, man.
I mean, it's a... It is.
I see it. Okay. Get ready.
I think none of us thought we'd...
I would definitely put this...
I'll order a pizza or something. No, look, it's fine.
I'm an idiot. Dude!
I'm not gonna do it! Well, it's not up to you.
I'm off at 4:00. Cool.
into your drawings? Nah, not really.
Is it gonna open again soon? Yes.
It is what it is. It is what it is.
It just... it's just not available! Right, well...
It might not work. It'll work.
It... it'll work. No, no, no.
It's a zoo!
Jesus, that is annoying!
Keep it goin', you know? Well, I mean, could I, you know,
Kelly! Way to go, Benji!
Let me out of here! I'm sorry, MacCready!
Look, Dad, the dog! Don't step on the...
Love the tie. Thank you.
Mama always gave me almond milk. Dad, you didn't read the label.
Man, I'm sorry. That's right. It's all right, man.
Maybe a buck. Okay.
Maybe it's supposed to take a while. Dad, something's wrong.
Me, too. Done, man.
Mmm hmm. What's so complicated about this place?
Moats? My moats!
Mr. Mae? Just don't worry about it.
Never. That, we're keeping! Okay.
New is the new old. New.
New, new, new. New.
Nice word, hotshot! Yeah!
No, but we can move on. Yeah.
No, that's true. He...
No! Kelly, would you sleep with this man?
No? No.
No. I bet you put all your feelings
No. Well, let me help you.
Nobody else. There's Rosie.
Now it's official. Love our logo, she's a beaut.
Okay, the posts. The posts in the cages?
Okay. Man.
Okay. These are the thieves
Really? Psyched? Yeah.
Remember that?
Right there. That's right.
She says you're a fraud. I got it.
So we do. So we do.
So we keep on lookin'. Right, Rosie? Yeah.
