Hey, hey, wait. Wait a minute.

Excuse me?

Yeah, that’s awesome.

Feeding junk food to forest animals? That’s great.

But, uh, is there a musical number where you show me how to get a tree?

Because I would love to hear that one.

Oh, yes. Right after the musical number about the kid who kept interrupting the story, and was never heard from again.

Right, got it. Proceed.

All right, here we go.

About to make a Thneed, about to change the world.

Check it out, guys…

Where did everybody go?

Little did I know that by chopping down that tree

I had just summoned a mystical creature as old as time itself.

The legendary, slightly annoying guardian of the forest.

The Lorax.

Did you chop down this tree?

Uh… No.

Who did it?

What’s that?

I think he did it.

Leave! Vacate the premises!

Take your ax and get out!

And who are you?

I’m the Lorax! Guardian of the forest.

I speak for the trees.

So you’re telling me, you just didn’t see me magically appear out of that stump?

With all the lightning and thunder and stuff.

You didn’t see any of that?

No, but that sounds amazing. Can I see some of that?

Uh, yeah, I could show you. But that’s not how it works.

Okay.

Didn’t really happen.

Oh, I know what you want!

I’ve got one of these for the cutest little guy I ever saw!

How dare you! Give me that!

I’m going to eat this, but I am highly offended by it.

What are you… Hey, Mustache! Will you stop that?

What’s your deal, man?

Time for you to go, Beanpole! Pull them right out Just going to put them right back in. We can do this all day.

Stop right there! Stop it!

So you would hammer one of nature’s innocent creatures?

What? No!

I would never hit this little guy. You, on the other hand,

I would gladly pound you and your mustache into the ground!

Behold! The intruder and his violent ways.

Shame on you. For shame!

All right, you know what? That’s it!

You listen to me, you furry meatloaf.

I’m going to chop down as many trees as I need. Okay?

Newsflash! Not going anywhere!

End of story.

Then you leave me no choice.

If you’re not gone by the time the sun sets on this valley all the forces of nature will be unleashed upon you.

and curse you until the end of your days!

You have been warned.

Thanks. Yeah, okay.

You have been warned.

But I didn’t listen to his warning.

And you won’t believe what happened that night.

What?

If you want to hear more, come back tomorrow.

Hey, wait, wait! Tomorrow?

Are you serious right now?

You live in the middle of nowhere!

It stinks out here. Don’t make me come back!

I guess you don’t really want to hear the rest of the story.

No, no.

I do. I really do. I want to hear the story. I just…

Nah! You don’t have what it takes. Goodbye.

Wait, wait! I have what it takes.

It’s all right. It’s okay, I’ll come back.

It’s no problem.

See, here I am, leaving. Walking away now.

I’ll see you tomorrow.

Maybe. Just maybe.

What did you wish for, Audrey?

Well, I would love to tell you,

but, sadly, according to the universal wish laws, I cannot.

I know what she wished for.
