It seems Scrat still lives on even after Blue Sky Studios has died out. Disney announced that
Scrat would be gracing our screens once again as they launched a minisode series on April 13,
2022, by the name of Scrat Tales. Things seem to be pretty entertaining as Scrat bonds with
a young baby Scrat, but you might have missed some easter eggs along the way. Lucky for you,
you can catch them all in this video.
A new Miniseries
Scrat makes a return to our TV screens with the release of Scrat Tales.
Disney plus released the show on April 13, 2022. It picks off slowly as Scrat is on his
hunt for the Acorn that seems to slip out of his hands as always. Everyone knows it's a reference
to his short cameos in the Ice Age Series. He desperately tries to get his hands on the Acorn,
but it is always in vain. While Blue Sky Studio decided to end the Saga with Scrat
finally getting his hands on the acorn, Disney seemed to pick up where the Ice Age
Series left off, with Scrat still trying to get his hands on the Acorn.
As he makes his way down a cliff, Scrat comes across a little red Baby Scrat with purple eyes.
Scrat tries his best to keep his cool and makes room in his mind for baby Scrat, but soon things
get out of hand as he keeps switching between love for baby Scrat and love for the acorn.
While Scrat’s adventures for gaining the Acorn are filled with dangers left and right,
he decides to include baby scrat in his adventures. It isn't like Scrat
to be so loving and caring when it comes to other forms of life, but he makes sure
to protect Baby Scrat from the horrors of the Ice Age. As they get their hands on the Acorn,
Scrat tries to carefully remove the Acorn from Baby Scrat’s hands, and the cliff above
starts to break down the more he pulls it towards himself. Baby Scrat seems to be glum and down,
so Scrat decides to entertain him to the best of his ability by bonking his head with the acorn.
Baby Scrat then pulls out a bone and hands it to Scrat to bonk his head with it. Scrat has
had enough of his antics and decides to make a run for it, but the heavy slabs of ice from the cliff
start falling on him as if it were some mysterious bad luck. He goes back to entertaining baby scrat
with the Acorn and the Bone, and he’s safe from the ice once again. Baby Scrat keeps handing him
dangerous items to entertain himself, and he succumbs to his demands. The scene finally
puts Baby Scrat to sleep, and Scrat finally tries to enjoy his acorn. But the ice cliff
falls on him and flattens him before he can enjoy the Acorn. A clear reference to his Ice Age days.
The next clip features a typical day for Scrat. He gazes at the acorn glowing in a golden hue,
and his eyes turn into acorns at the glorious sight of it all. But his mood goes pretty sour as
he witnesses the acorn in the hands of baby scrat, who’s chewing at the tasty acorn while Scrat
watches as. Desperate to get the Acorn, Scrat makes a trap for Baby Scrat that will dangle him
from a tree while Scrat gets the tasty Acorn once and for all but considering this is Scrat we’re
talking about, getting the Acorn is out of the question. He convinces baby Scrat to step into the
trap and fix the acorn into the ground to activate the trap. But baby Scrat fails to put it on the
ground, to the disappointment of Scrat. Scrat gets pretty fed up with Baby Scrat's inability
to complete the goal, so he pulls Baby Scrat out of the way to do the job himself. Hilarity
ensues as Scrat gets stuck in the trap and dangles left and right. Baby Scrat finally figures out how
to push the Acorn into the ground, and Scrat is visibly proud. But the trap is activated,
and he endures a period of pain once again. The clip cuts with Baby Scrat laughing at Scrat.
In the next clip, Baby Scrat has his grimy hands on the Acorn while Scrat tries his best to get the
Acorn off his hands. Both of them struggle, and the Acorn falls off a cliff. It becomes
clear to them that the Acorn fell into a pit of Lava. Lightning strikes the acorn,
followed by the side of a cliff falling over it. A smoke cloud of the destroyed acorn pops up,
which shocks both Scrat and Baby Scrat. The only thing on Scrat’s mind was the Acorn,
and now that it’s finally gone. Scrat’s mind deflates. He’s depressed and looks at his hands,
wondering what’s next for him and what his purpose in life is. But Baby Scrat
is beside him. He forgets the Acorn and decides to be good to him once and for all.
They live the rest of their lives out dedicated to each other. Soon, Scrat grows old, and Baby Scrat
does his best to take care of him, and before you know it, Scrat is lying on his deathbed. He holds
Baby Scrat’s hand before passing away. As his Ghost floats in the air, he notices Baby Scrat
starts poking his corpse with a stick which is very inappropriate for a kid's show. Scrat
sees that Baby Scrat waited all those years hiding the Acorn till his death. Scrat’s
Ghost can't have it and returns to his body. He returns as a zombie! Talk about obsession.
And that’s pretty much it for today.
