Young Fei Fei: Tell me about Chang’e.
Ba Ba: Again?
Young Fei Fei: Again! Again! I love to hear about the Moon Goddess. Tell me, Ma Ma.
Ma Ma: [singing] Long ago, an ancient story. Beautiful and kind Chang’e, and a handsome man named Houyi, were in love.
Young Fei Fei: True love?
Ma Ma: [singing] True love. But she took a magic potion, giving immortality. Then she floated, leaving her true love. And she waits for him, on the moon above


 

Ma Ma: And that’s where she lives now. On the moon, with only Jade Rabbit to keep her company.
Young Fei Fei: Why?
Ma Ma: Because Houyi died here on Earth.
Young Fei Fei: And when she cries, her tears turn into stardust.
Ma Ma: [singing] Longing, hoping for her one true love. Now she waits for him on the moon above.
Young Fei Fei: [singing] Forever.


 

Young Fei Fei: Ba Ba, do you think Chang’e is real?
Ba Ba: If your mother says she’s real, then she is absolutely real.


 

Ma Ma: Look up. Can you see Jade Rabbit? He’s making a potion.
Young Fei Fei: I can see him.
Ma Ma: What do you think he’s making?
All Together: Moonmush!


 

Fei Fei: Did you know if you put forty billion Mooncakes side by side, you could reach the moon?
Male Customer: That’s a lot of Mooncakes.
Fei Fei: Of course, if the moon is at its furthest point from the Earth, you’d need four hundred twenty-six million two hundred thirty-two more!
Male Customer: You better get baking.


 

[four years after her mother’s passed away, as she helps her father sell Mooncakes]
Fei Fei: Mooncakes?
Ba Ba: Check. We got bungee cords?
Fei Fei: Check.
Ba Ba: We have Bungee?
Fei Fei: Check.
Ba Ba: Alright. Hey, we got company tonight, so don’t be late. Okay?
Fei Fei: I’ll be back in time.


 

Fei Fei: Magnetic levitation is the coolest!


 

Chin: I’m Chin. I got fourth place, Yanshi City Ping-Pong Club tournament. Should’ve been third. Oh, oh, oh, and by the way, I have a super power. Can you guess what it is?
Fei Fei: Super annoying?
Chin: [to Croak] I have two super powers!


 

Fei Fei: You can run through walls?
Chin: Want to see?
Fei Fei: Why, yes. I’d love to.
[he rushes towards the wall]
Chin: No barriers! Ahhh!


 

Chin: Did you see that? Almost a whole part of me went right through that wall! My molecules opened up. I could feel them separate. It’s like the universe was calling me by name.


 

Fei Fei: [referring to Chin] Ba Ba, he ran into a wall!
Ba Ba: Eight-year-old boys have a lot of energy. Give him a pass this time.
Fei Fei: This time?


 

Ba Ba: Don’t you ever get a little, well, lonely?
Fei Fei: No. Never! Why? Do you? I have you. We have each other.
Ba Ba: Of course, sweetheart, we’re always going to have each other. Nothing can ever change that.


 

Auntie Ling: Anybody order twelve big, hairy crabs?
Auntie Mei: Move aside. Good-looking is going to start cooking.


 

Grandpa: The hairy crab is a burrowing crab, known for its furry claws.


 

Grandpa: The hairy crab invades local waters, damaging fishing nets and native species.


 

Grandma: Ah, look how big and bright the moon is! It’s going to be huge for the Moon festival.
Fei Fei: Ma Ma’s favorite holiday!


 

Mrs. Zhong: [to Fei Fei] So, your father tells me you’re fond of Chang’e.
Auntie Mei: Oh, poor lady, that goddess! So lonely up there on the moon. No one but Jade Rabbit to keep her company.
Auntie Ling: Oh, come on! Chang’e loves it up there alone! That’s why she took both immortality pills instead of saving one for Houyi!
Mrs. Zhong: Actually, according to my mother, I might be related to Houyi.


 

Fei Fei: That’s not what happened, Auntie. Houyi was off fighting demons.
Chin: With his bow and arrow and…
Fei Fei: When a robber came and tried to…
Auntie Ling: Steal the immortality pills? Yeah, yeah, yeah. She only put them both in her mouth as a hiding place. Not buying it.


 

Auntie Mei: Chang’e floated to the sky, while her one true love stayed here.
Auntie Ling: And bit the dust.
Uncle: Now she lives with a rabbit instead of a husband.
Auntie Ling: Good choice.


 

Fei Fei: But it wasn’t her choice. She didn’t try to leave Houyi behind. She misses Houyi and cries for him every day!
Auntie Ling: And how do you know that?
Grandpa: They text.
Auntie Mei: Don’t tease Fei Fei.


 

Auntie Ling: It’s just a silly myth.
Fei Fei: It’s not a silly myth! It’s real. Chang’e is real!


 

Fei Fei: She’s on the moon, right now, waiting for her one and only true love. Waiting. Right, Ba Ba?
Ba Ba: Uh…


 

Auntie Ling: She’s at the top of her class, but she still believes in Chang’e?


 

Fei Fei: It’s you and me, Bungee. We’re the last true believers.


 

Chin: Know what I am? A bat!
Fei Fei: Yeah, a dingbat!
Chin: I hope you like dingbats, because you’re going to see a whole lot more of me!
Fei Fei: Not if I can help it.
Chin: Haven’t you heard? We’re going to be brother and sister!
Fei Fei: What?
Chin: My mom and your dad are getting mar…
Fei Fei: Don’t say it! Don’t!


 

Mrs. Zhong: [to Fei Fei] Chin can be rambunctious at times. But after a while, you get used to him.


 

Fei Fei: “Get used to him?” I’ll never get used to him! What’s so special about your Mooncake? I don’t want it. And I don’t want you! I just want things back the way they were.


 

Fei Fei: He used to believe in Chang’e. He said she was absolutely real. But now he’s changed. If Ba Ba could only believe again, he would never marry that woman. He would remember everything. He would remember you.


 

[as she looks up at the moon]
Fei Fei: Ma Ma, why is this happening?


 

Fei Fei: I know Chang’e is up there. But how can I prove it? She’s three hundred eighty-four thousand four hundred kilometers away. What am I supposed to do?


 

Fei Fei: Bungee, we’re going to prove she’s real!


 

[during her class as she’s drawing her rocket ship]
Teacher: Something you want to share with us, Fei Fei?
Fei Fei: No.
Teacher: Today you are number one in class, but maybe tomorrow you’ll be number thirty. There’s no doodling allowed.


 

Fei Fei: [singing] Ba Ba, I will prove it to you. I’ll be free of all gravity. Hey, Chang’e, I’m going to be there soon! In my rocket to the Moon!


 

[as she blasts her rocket ship towards the Moon]
Fei Fei: I did it! I did it!
[the rocket ship suddenly stalls]
Fei Fei: Uh-oh.
Chin: We’re going to die!
Fei Fei: Chin?
Chin: Hi, Fei Fei!
Fei Fei: You dingbat! I didn’t calculate your extra weight!


 

[as they start getting pulled towards the Moon]
Chin: Are we dead? What’s happening?
Fei Fei: We’re going up!
Chin: Woh.
Fei Fei: What in the world?


 

Chin: Zero Gravity Man!
Fei Fei: Get down here! This is no time to mess around!
[referring to the floating diaper]
Chin: Grandpa’s diapers?
Fei Fei: It’s a long flight.
Chin: Ew!

[after they crash land on the moon]
Lunettes: Welcome!
Fei Fei: Talking Mooncakes?


 

Chang’e: What butcher cut your hair?
Fei Fei: I did.
Chang’e: Hmm. You have a round face. You need length. And you have a rogue eyebrow, right there.
[she plucks the eyebrow out]
Fei Fei: Ow.
Chang’e: Improved.


 

Chang’e: Alright, Unfortunate Hair Girl, consider yourself welcomed. You may now give me the gift.
Fei Fei: I’m sorry, but I didn’t bring you a gift.
Chang’e: [laughs] Of course you brought me the gift. Why else would I have sent my lions to bring you here from Earth?
Fei Fei: Those were yours? They’re so cool. And you sent them for me.
Chang’e: Well, of course.


 

Chang’e: You were given the one thing I need to bring Houyi back.
Fei Fei: Houyi? I knew you’ve never given up on him! That’s what I was telling my dad! You see, I’m in an urgent situation. I came a long way. I built a rocket…
Chang’e: She’s talking, but it’s not about the gift.
Pink Lunette: No, Goddess.


 

Fei Fei: What I mean is, you’re the one who believes that love never dies. Everybody knows that about you. My dad used to believe that too, but now I’m afraid he’s giving up. If I could just have a photo to prove to my dad that you’re real…
Chang’e: Pictures! She wants pictures. Everybody wants pictures. Does this look like a photo op to you?
Fei Fei: Um, yes?
Chang’e: Then do it fast.


 

[as Fei Fei tries to take the photo]
Chang’e: Uh-uh. No gift, no photo.
Fei Fei: But I don’t know what it is! You can have anything of mine you want…
Chang’e: I don’t want “anything”. I want the gift!


 

Chang’e: Let’s stop playing games. There’s only a sliver of moon left. When the last moon dust falls, it will be too late to bring Houyi back. Lunarians, I announce a competition! Anyone who finds and brings me the gift will get their wish granted.


 

Chang’e: [to Fei Fei] If you bring it to me first, you’ll get your photo. Good luck, and Godspeed! Find it!


 

[as Chin wants to help her find the gift]
Fei Fei: I never wanted you on this trip! I never even wanted you in my life!!
Chin: You can’t talk to your brother like that.
Fei Fei: You’re not my brother!
Chin: But I could become your brother.
Fei Fei: You will never be my brother!


 

Fei Fei: [to the Lunarian chickens] Could I get a ride?
Bill: Biker chicks only.


 

Chin: I’d be a great brother.


 

Chang’e: What are you doing here?
Chin: I want the photo for my sister!
Chang’e: Well, I want the gift.
Chin: Well, I know where it is.
Chang’e: Oh, you do? Bring him to the interrogation chamber.
Chin: Uh, is she taking me in there? Because I won’t go. I won’t, I won’t!
[sees a ping-pong table and rackets]
Chin: I’m in!


 

[after wining their game of ping-pong]
Chin: You know what I heard? You’re a three thousand year-old lady who ate both immortality pills! Now you live alone forever! I win!
Chang’e: Ugh! No one’s leaving until I get that gift.
Chin: Hey! What about the photo?


 

Chang’e: That little ping-pong poo is no use! And we’re running out of time.


 

Chang’e: This is our only chance!
Blue Lunette: Please try to stay calm. You don’t want to cause another meteor shower.
Pink Lunette: Do yoga with us.
Blue Lunette: Calming breath in. And calming breath out.


 

Chang’e: I’ll never see Houyi again, will I?


 

Lulu: Looks like the Moon Goddess is astronomically upset.
Gretch: When she’s mad, this road’s a suicide mission.


 

Bill: Woh! We’re not going to make it!
Fei Fei: Don’t be such a chicken.


 

Gobi: Hi, I’m Gobi. What’s your name?
Fei Fei: I’m Fei Fei.
Gobi: I’m Gobi. What’s your name? I feel like we’re talking in a circle. I actually used to be a nervous talker. And I think that’s what’s great about me, is that like I’m so self-aware about my nervous talking. So I got to slow it down, relax, and just breathe. Checking my pulse right now. Ah, serenity achieved.


 

Fei Fei: Who are you? What are you?
Gobi: I happen to be Chang’e’s most trusted advisor. Very high level member of the court. I mean, not like a court jester, but definitely a member of the court, like really high up. I’m basically indispensable.
Fei Fei: Then what are you doing all the way out here?


 

[referring to the diaper]
Gobi: Oh, you can take my cape. But I’m keeping these sweet moon pants. Dig it!


 

Bill: I wouldn’t be talking to that one if I were you.
Lulu: Yeah. He was kicked out of the palace by the Goddess.
Fei Fei: Hey, easy!
Gobi: Don’t listen to them. These Lunarian chickens, they got a little scrambled up, it’s fine. It is not fine. They are bad eggs.
Gretch: Uh-uh! Look who’s talking!


 

Fei Fei: Quit wasting time. We have to find the gift for Chang’e.
Gobi: Chang’e! Oh, I want to help. Can I help? I’d love to help. Did I mention I can help?


 

Fei Fei: My Chang’e doll.
Gobi: Oh, yeah. She’s amazing. I can’t help but break into song when I see her.


 

[after the Lunarian chickens steal Fei Fei’s Chang’e doll]
Gobi: Ooh-ooh. Please let me help you bring a gift to the Goddess!
Fei Fei: No.
Gobi: Please?
Fei Fei: No.
Gobi: Please?
Fei Fei: No.
Gobi: [holds the note] Plea…
Fei Fei: No!
Gobi: Let me finish. Ea…
Fei Fei: Okay! Okay! Just stop making that noise!


 

Gobi: But my whole point is I’m a nervous talker, and I’m starting to work on that. I realized, “Wow. Am I talking really fast?” I thought to myself, “You should relax.” So I’ve been working on slowing it down and breathing, and… Uh-oh.
[he suddenly trips on his own tongue and rolls down the hill]
Gobi: Sometimes it causes me to get a little tongue-tied. I hate it when this happens.


 

Fei Fei: We should catch up to those biker chicks in no time.
Gobi: Wooh! That was a bonding experience. Do you feel closer to me? Because I feel closer to you. I feel like this is amazing.
[singing]
Gobi: Besties forever. Forever! Forever!


 

Fei Fei: So, why are you living by yourself?
Gobi: That’s a personal question. But since you and I are like family now, I can tell you. It happened a long time ago. The Goddess exiled me from Lunaria because of a song I sang to her.
Fei Fei: She exiled you over a song? She’s nothing like Ma Ma said she’d be.


 

[referring to Chang’e]
Fei Fei: Ma Ma said she was kind, and gentle, graceful as a swan landing on a quiet lake.
Gobi: She was all those things, until Houyi died. And then she just pushed us all away.
Fei Fei: Once you lose the person you love the most…
Gobi: It changes you.


 

Gobi: After I sang that song, the Goddess disappeared. All the lights in Lunaria just went out. We call it The Big Darkness.
Fei Fei: That song, will you sing it for me?
Gobi: Uh, I don’t know. The acoustics aren’t good when you’re singing on top of a frog.
Fei Fei: [holds the note] Please?
Gobi: Ah, touché.


 

Fei Fei: I just want things to go back to how they were.


 

Gobi: [singing] Every moment we have is a chance at something new. Yeah. To glow. To grow. Do you ever feel afraid? Curl up when you are hurting, and hold your memories tight to you? Yeah, me too. If you release the past, you’ll move ahead and bloom at last. The heart grows. And it knows. You can glow. You’re wonderful.
Fei Fei: So that’s the song you sang to her?
Gobi: No, it was another song.
Fei Fei: Gobi.
Gobi: Yeah, that’s the song.


 

[after the Lunarian chickens destroy her Chang’e doll]
Fei Fei: I’ve lost everything now.
[takes out some items from her backpack]
Gobi: Not everything. You still have this, and this, and this! And you’re alive. That’s a plus.


 

Fei Fei: That gift was my only chance to stop my father from getting remarried.
Gobi: Remarried? Your mother is, I mean, is she gone?
Fei Fei: Now I’m stuck here. The gift is gone, and my dad will marry that awful woman with her horrible boy!


 

Gobi: What horrible boy?
Fei Fei: A ridiculously annoying boy.
Gobi: Nobody likes annoying creatures. They are the worst!
Fei Fei: He’s always making faces. He plays leapfrog all the time. He thinks he can hang upside down like a bat and run through walls. And he’s always interrupting me!
Gobi: Let me finish.


 

Gobi: He plays leapfrog? Is that where you got the idea for us to ride on those frogs?
Fei Fei: No! I mean, not really.
Gobi: And he hangs upside down like a bat, like you did when you almost got scorched? Is that where you got that idea?
Fei Fei: No! Anyway, I can’t stand him.
Gobi: I can’t stand him either.


 

Gobi: I would love to have a brother. You know, but then again, I’ve been alone for a thousand years. How many years have you been alone?
Fei Fei: Four.
Gobi: Well, give it time. You might change your mind.


 

Gobi: [to Fei Fei] I think Ms. Grumpy-Pants is hungry. Hm? Why don’t we eat something? Everything looks better when your tummy’s full.


 

Gobi: I can’t believe you eat Mooncakes. That’s barbaric.
Fei Fei: These Mooncakes don’t have feelings.
[as she’s about to take a bite]
Fei Fei: Ow! What’s this? Looks like the broken half of something. Chin probably found it somewhere and thought it would be funny to bake it into a Mooncake. I told you he was annoying.
Gobi: Wait a minute. Why does this look familiar? Nope, never seen it.


 

Fei Fei: This half forms a whole with that symbol. This amulet, Gobi! It’s the gift! There’s still a chance. We’ve got to get this to Chang’e!


 

Chin: We need to help Fei Fei. No barriers! Ahhh!
[runs and breaks through the wall]
Chin: I did it!


 

Fei Fei: Chin?
Chin: Fei Fei! Oh, my gosh, I’m so happy to see you!
Fei Fei: You’re okay!


 

Gobi: Hi, I’m Gobi.
Chin: Rad! I’m Chin.
Gobi: Double rad. I just returned from a thousand years in exile. I wonder if I’ll run into anyone…
[suddenly something runs into him]


 

Fei Fei: I think this is the gift you’re looking for.
Chang’e: Of course, the other half of the amulet. Our two halves can make us whole again. Now you can come back to me.


 

[after Houyi appears]
Houyi: Chang’e, I cannot stay. You have to move on.
Chang’e: But how? No!
[Houyi starts to disappear and float away]
Houyi: Our love is forever.
Chang’e: Please don’t leave me again. Houyi!


 

[as Fei Fei manages to penetrate through the Chamber of Exquisite Sadnes]
Pink Lunette: If you go in there, you may never come out again.
Gobi: You may never go home again.


 

[after she enters the Chamber of Exquisite Sadness]
Fei Fei: Chang’e? It’s me. Fei Fei? Bad Haircut Girl. I’m here to bring you back.


 

Chang’e: What are you doing here? You don’t belong here.
Fei Fei: But I do belong here.
Chang’e: You can’t stay here. You’ll only end up lonely for all eternity, like me. You have to move on.
Fei Fei: But how?


 

Chang’e: [singing] I know you’re feeling sadness. I see it in your eyes. The pain is overwhelming when a loved one dies. But it’s time for you to let go and set your heartache free. For there’s a life that’s waiting there for you. If you can let love through, if you can give love, you will find your family. Though it may not be like it was before. And if you give love, you’ll never lose love. It only grows. More and more. No need to build a rocket, for you can now be strong. The things that you’ve been searching for have been here all along. And though it hurts to miss her, her spirit’s always near. So trust that she will always be with you and love someone new.


 

Chin: No barriers. I want my sister!
[he breaks through the chamber]


 

Chin: Am I still a dingbat?
Fei Fei: Yes, but you’re my dingbat.
Chin: Can we go home now?
Fei Fei: Yeah.


 

Fei Fei: What about you?
Chang’e: I think it’s too late for me. Houyi is not coming back.
Fei Fei: [singing] The gift is not the answer. And you are not alone. For love is all around you. A love you’ve always known. And though it hurts to miss him, his spirit is always near. The heart grows, and it knows. You can glow. You’re wonderful.


 

Gobi: Remember when we chased those mean chickens? Yeah, they were mean! Remember when you lassoed a frog with my tongue? Remember when we said goodbye?
Fei Fei: You mean, like right now?
Gobi: Yes.
[they hug]
Gobi: Goodbye, Fei Fei.


 

Fei Fei: If you want to stay, you can. I’ll be okay. You have a new life now. Go. Goodbye, Bungee.


 

Chang’e: Thank you for bringing me the gift, Fei Fei.
Fei Fei: I wish it had given you everything you wanted.
Chang’e: It did. The real gift was you.
[Fei Fei embraces her]


 

[sometime later after Ba Ba has married Mrs.Zhong]
Grandpa: Eating hairy crabs has been called a life-changing experience.


 

Mrs. Zhong: [to Fei Fei] You know, the Moon festival is my favorite night of the year. My Nai Nai always told me the circle of a Mooncake is the symbol of a family coming together.


 

Grandma: It’s the Moon festival, and no moon!
Auntie Mei: Chang’e must be so sad, hidden behind those clouds, dreaming of her one true love.
Auntie Ling: Come on, don’t start that again!
Auntie Mei: Start what? It’s romantic.


 

[as they look up at the sky together]
Ba Ba: Looks like the moon has decided to come out for us after all. What do you think Jade Rabbit’s making tonight?
Fei Fei, Ba Ba: Moonmush!


 

Ba Ba: You laugh just like your Ma Ma.
Fei Fei: I know, Ba Ba.


 

Fei Fei: Alright, you dingbat!
Chin: Mom! Fei Fei’s chasing me!
Fei Fei: No, I’m not!
Mrs. Zhong: Chin! Stop chasing your sister!
