Character Conversations: Ellie
Tigey Wigey: How are ya, Ellie?
Ellie: Oh, I'm fine, sweetheart. How are you?
Tigey Wigey: Pretty good. So Ellie... what's been going on lately?
Ellie: Oh, nothing much, just Manny and I taking care of Peaches early in the morning. I tell ya, she cries all night long!
Tigey Wigey: Does the rest of the herd get annoyed by that?
Ellie: Oh, yes. At night, they all sleep about a mile from the den!
Tigey Wigey: How come you say "Oh" at the beginning of every line?
Ellie: Oh, I don't know. I guess I just speak like that when I'm excited! I've been waiting for this interview for ten days!
Tigey Wigey: Good for you. So, how-
*Power goes out*
Ellie: What happened? It doesn't get dark that quickly! Anyway, I thought it was noon!
Tigey Wigey: You stone-age animals make me laugh. No, it's not nighttime, the power that keeps the room lit went out.
Ellie: So, we have to do the interview in the dark then?
Tigey Wigey: I guess so... so, let's continue... As I was saying, how did you, in Ice Age 2, think that you were a possum, I mean, seriously!
Ellie: Well, I grew up with possums, so yeah, I thought I was a weird-looking possum.
Tigey Wigey: Okay then. So, tell me... How is life in the Ice Age?
*Ellie hears loud noise*
Ellie: What was that?
Tigey Wigey: Sorry, I fell out of my chair. *Sets chair back up and sits down*
Ellie: Oh, are you okay, honey?
Tigey Wigey: Yeah, I'm fine.
Ellie: Good. Okay, life in the Ice Age is... well, cold. It obviously snows a lot... um, oh yeah, we have to find food, shelter, water... it's a lot tougher than life in this century.
*Both hear a moaning ghost sound*
Tigey Wigey: What the...
Ellie: Crash! Eddie! This is my interview, please leave!
Crash (whispers to Eddie as they are leaving): How'd she know?
Ellie: Gosh, those two...
*Power returns* *Lights go back on*
Both: AH!
Tigey Wigey: It's so bright!
*Both rubs eyes with either trunk or hands*
Ellie: How come it's brighter than when we started?
Tigey Wigey: I don't know, but it's blinding!
*Tigey Wigey hears snickering*
Tigey Wigey: Crash! Eddie! Turn the lights off!
Eddie: Aw...
Crash: Busted, dude.
*Eddie turns lights off*
Both Tigey Wigey and Ellie: Ah... That's better...
Ellie: You two better be going or else I'll kill you when this is over!
Crash: Eh... we got one minute...
Ellie: You guys!
Both (moaning): Fine, we'll go... *leaves room*
Ellie: Sometimes I just want to twist their necks, know what I mean?
Tigey Wigey: Yeah. I have three younger brothers... they're all VERY annoying... What's worse is that they invite their annoying little friends over to our house...
Ellie: What's a house?
Tigey Wigey: It's what we call modern-day man-made dens.
Ellie: Oh... cool...
Tigey Wigey: Yeah, some of them are pretty neat... Okay, let's get back to interviewing... So uh... Do you ever get hot with all that fur?
Ellie: Hot like temperature hot, or hot like-
Tigey Wigey: TEMPERATURE HOT.
Ellie: Oh, okay. Well, very rarely, sometimes in the summer when I'm in a really warm den, but that's about it.
*Lights go on*
Both Tigey Wigey and Ellie: CRASH! EDDIE!
