Alvin and the Chipmunks Edited Version

Chapter 1

It was a cloudy day at the tree where three young chipmunk brothers named Alvin, Simon, and Theodore are living at the tree singing "Bad Day". Alvin pushes the nuts into the tree and they go down and took Alvin with them and escaped through a hole.

Simon dropped his nuts and says, "And it's gone."

Theodore says, "Maybe we should take a break."

"That's it!" Alvin said, as he came out of the tree. "I can't take it anymore! I can't! I give up!"

"I'm sick of this struggling for survival! Competing with gophers and earthworms and that loser sparrow who always takes my nuts!" Alvin hissed, climbing on trees before jumping on a branch. "And I'm especially sick of this stupid, stupid tree!"

Suddenly, the tree started shaking, making the chipmunks hold on the branches.

"What's happening?" Simon asked.

"Guys, I think you made it angry." Theodore said.

The tree was cut down by people and driven to Los Angeles after JETT Records purchases it as a Christmas tree.

Meanwhile, a struggling songwriter and composer Dave Seville is lying down on the piano, then he woke up and realized he was running late to JETT Records to pick his demo. Dave walks into the building, goes into the elevator and walks into chief executive, Ian Hawke's office.

Ian says, "Dave!"

Dave says, "Ian."

Ian says, "Hey, big guy. Hey, you ever seen the view form the 80th floor?"

Dave says, "No. They never let me past the lobby."

Ian asks, "Mr. Seville, can I get you some water or a soy latte?"

Dave says, "No."

Ian asks, "How about a shot of wheatgrass juice?"

Dave says, "Maybe later."

Ian says, "Thanks."

Dave gives his latest demo to Ian and he put it in the CD player. His demo was playing and Ian was hearing it and thinking about it and turned it off.

Ian says, "Let's talk about your song, Dave."

Dave says, "Well, as crazy as it sounds, the original inspiration came to me…"

Ian says, "The song sucks, Dave."

Dave asks, "What?"

Ian says, "Your song? It's awful. I hate it. You know, I mean, who's gonna sing it? Justin, Fergie? Not a chance. I need something new, I need something fresh. The next big thing.

Dave says, "That is new."

Ian says, "Dave, we go way back. And we've both come a long way since college. I wanted to like that song, but you heard it. Not that good. If I wasn't your friend, I'd say: Dave, you go right back out of this office, and you keep writing music. You'll get there someday. But I am your friend, so I'm going to tell you that there is no sense in writing songs, that no one is ever, ever going to sing."

Dave asks, "Ever?" and Ian nodded.

Dave walks out of his office came into the other work office and stole a basket of muffins from Ian's coworkers and walked into the elevator. The tree is at the hallway, which the chipmunks are inside, trying to get out of it and land into the ground.

Alvin shouts, "Last one to the door is roadkill!"

Simon shouts, "I'm in!"

Theodore spots the Christmas ornaments on the tree and asks, "What are those things?"

Simon says, "We're leaving now."

The chipmunks left the tree and running to the dog.

Alvin shouts, "Look out!"

The chipmunks stopped running. Alvin spots the basket and says, "Basket, 3 o'clock! This way!"

Theodore shouts, "Wait for me!"

Alvin shouts, "Jump, Theodore! You've gotta really want it."

Theodore shouts, "I want it! I want it!"

Alvin says, "I can't hang like this all day."

Simon asks, "Will you jump already?"

They pull Theodore into the basket full of muffins. Dave didn't realize those chipmunks are in the basket, so he also didn't know that he's taking the chipmunks to his house.
