This holiday season comes a story for everyone who ever needed a restart on life.
When the game is over, a new world comes to life.
Get ready for a new kind of hero.
When the arcade closes, the fun begins.

[Wynnchel and Duncan roll in the giant cupcake in which a taffy-covered Ralph is currently trapped.]

King Candy:
Sour Bill, de-taffy-fy this monster so we can see what we're up against here!

Sour Bill:
Mmkay.

[Sour Bill rips the taffy off of Ralph's head; Ralph howls in pain.]

King Candy:
Milk my Duds! It's Wreck-It Ralph!

Ralph:
Yeah. Who are you, the guy that makes the donuts?

King Candy:
Hoo-hoo, please! No, I'm King Candy!

[Ralph looks around the pink-walled throne room.]

Ralph:
I see you're a fan of pink.

King Candy:
Salmon! Salmon, that's obviously salm-- What are you doing here?

Ralph:
Look, Your Candiness, this is just a big misunderstanding. Just get me out of this cupcake, I'll get my medal, and I'll be out of your way.

King Candy:
Your medal? Hoo-hoo-hoo! Bad guys don't win medals!

Ralph:
Well, this one did. I earned it over in Hero's Duty.

King Candy:
[suddenly serious] You game-jumped? Ralph... you're not going Turbo, are you?

Ralph:
What? No, no, no...

[The Oreo guards surround King Candy and point their spears at Ralph.]

King Candy:
Because if you think you can come in here, heh, to my kingdom, and take over my game, you've got another think coming!

Ralph:
EASY, Your Puffiness! It's not my fault one of your Children of the Candy Corn stole my medal.

King Candy:
"Children of the candy corn"? Who -- [gasps] The glitch! The coin she used to buy her way into the race, that was your medal?

Ralph:
She did what?! I need that back!

King Candy:
Well, I'm afraid I can't help you, it's gone, you know. It's, it's nothing but code now! And it'll stay that way until someone wins the cup at the end of the race!

Ralph:
Well, maybe I'll just have to have a little talk with the winner, then.

King Candy:
[getting in Ralph's face] Is that a threat I smell? [recoiling] Ye-whoa! Beyond the halitosis you so obviously suffer from...

Ralph:
Listen, Nellie Wafer, I'm not leavin' without my medal!

King Candy:
Yes, you are! Wynnchel, Duncan, get him out of that cupcake and on the first train back home. And if I ever see you here again, Wreck-It Ralph... hoo-hoo, I'll lock you in my Fungeon!

Ralph:
...Fungeon?

King Candy:
Fun dungeon. Y'know, it's a play on words? Hoo-hoo...it's a fun... Never mind! Now, I've got a glitch to deal with, thanks to you. Goodbye, Wreck-It Ralph! It hasn't been a pleasure!

[Ralph turns to face Vanellope. She gets up off the ground, sniffling.]

Vanellope:
What are you looking at?

Ralph:
You're welcome, ya rotten little thief.

Vanellope:
I'm not a thief! I just borrowed your stupid coin, I was gonna give it back to you as soon as I won the race.

Ralph:
It's not a coin! It's a medal!

Vanellope:
Coin, medal, whatever, just go back to your own dumb game and win another one.

Ralph:
I can't. I didn't win it in my game, I won it in Hero's Duty.

[Vanellope glitches.]

Vanellope:
Hero's Doody?

[She bursts out laughing.]

Ralph:
[losing patience] It's not that kind of doody!

Vanellope:
[through laughter] I bet you really gotta watch where you step in a game called Hero's Doody! Ha ha ha! What'd you win the medal for, wiping?

[Ralph rolls his eyes.]

Vanellope:
I hope you washed your hands after you handled that medal!

Ralph:
Listen --

Vanellope:
One more, one more - why did the hero flush the toilet? ...Say "Why?"

Ralph:
[unimpressed] Why.

Vanellope:
Because it was his doody!

Ralph:
How dare you insult Hero's Duty, you little guttersnipe! I earned that medal! And you better get it back for me toute-suite, sister!

Vanellope:
Well, unless you've got a go-kart hidden in the fat folds of your neck, I can't help ya!

[At his breaking point, Ralph starts taking out his anger by smashing apart the candy that litters the junkyard; he comes across a jawbreaker and hits it repeatedly.]

Vanellope:
[to herself] What a moron. [to Ralph] Hey, genius! That's a jawbreaker! You're never gonna -- [Ralph finally manages to smash the jawbreaker open. Vanellope gives an impressed smile. Ralph sits down, exhausted, and Vanellope approaches him] Enjoy your little tantrum, Diaper-Baby?

Ralph:
Leave me alone.

Vanellope:
Look, you want that medal, right? And I wanna race. So here's what I'm thinkin'. You help me get a new kart - a real kart - and I'll win the race and get you back your medal!

Ralph:
You want me to help you?

Vanellope:
All you gotta do is break somethin' for me. C'mon, what do you say, friend? [extends her hand]

Ralph:
We are not friends.

Vanellope:
Aw, c'mon, pal! You son-of-a-gun! C'mon, buddy! Shake on it! C'mon, chumbo! Ralph, my man! M' main man! [seriously] ...Hey. My arm's getting tired. Do we have a deal or not?

Ralph:
[groans, giving in] You better win. [shakes Vanellope's hand]

[Sour Bill is cleaning up Vanellope's broken go-kart]

Ralph:
Hey, Cough Drop! Explain somethin' to me; If Vanellope was never meant to exist, then why is her picture on the side of the game console?

Sour Bill:
Uh...

[Sour Bill tries to make a run for it, but Ralph grabs him.]

Ralph:
What's goin' on in this candy-coated heart of darkness?

Sour Bill:
Nothin'.

Ralph:
Talk!

Sour Bill:
No.

Ralph:
I'll lick you!

Sour Bill:
You wouldn't.

Ralph:
Oh yeah?

[Ralph licks him.]

Sour Bill:
Ugh! It's like sandpaper!

Ralph:
Mmm, I wonder how many licks it'll take to get to your center?

Sour Bill:
I'll take it to my grave!

Ralph:
Fair enough. [tosses Sour Bill into his mouth] Oh, they call you Sour Bill for a reason! [Sour Bill lets out a muffled scream and Ralph takes him out] Had enough yet?

Sour Bill:
Okay, okay, I'll talk, I'll talk! Vanellope was a racer until King Candy tried to delete her code!

Ralph:
Tried to delete her code? So that's why she's a glitch! Why is he doing this to her?!

Sour Bill:
I don't know!

Ralph:
Suit yourself. [starts to put Sour Bill back in his mouth]

Sour Bill:
No, no, no, no, no, no! I swear I don't know! He literally locked up our memories and I cannot remember! Nobody can! But I do know this. He'll do anything to keep her from racing. Because if she crosses the finish line, the game will reset and she won't be a glitch anymore!

Ralph:
Where is she now?

Sour Bill:
In the fungeon with Fix-It Felix.

Ralph:
Felix?!

Sour Bill:
I'm sorry! That's all I know, that's all I know, I swear! Now please, don't put me back in your filthy mouth again!

[Sour Bill sobs and Ralph sticks him to a lollipop tree]

Ralph:
Stick around! [gathers up the remains of Vanellope's broken go-kart and takes off]

Sour Bill:
Yes, okay, I will, I will. Thank you.

Ralph:
[looking into lost and found crate] Okay, let's see what we got here. [a cockroach lands on his hand] Shoo! Shoo! Go on, get out of here. [flicks it off, finds a Super Mushroom] Mushroom? No. [puts it back, finds a Metal Gear exclamation point] What is this? No. [tosses it, finds Zangief's underwear] Come on, Zangief. Gross. [tosses back in] What am I doing?

[a heavily-armored space marine, Markowski bumps past Ralph]

Ralph:
Hey, excuse you!

[Markowski staggers on and right into the wall again and again, in a walk cycle.]

Markowski:
[mumbling, shell-shocked] We are humanity's last hope. Our mission? Destroy all Cy-Bugs. We are humanity's last hope.

Ralph:
[stands and looks at him, curious] Uh... You okay there, space cadet?

[Markowski whips around quickly and grabs Ralph by the collar.]

Markowski:
[traumatized] We've only been plugged in a week, and every day it's "Climb the building, then fight bugs. Climb the building, fight more bugs!"

Ralph:
Yeah, yeah. Right. Look. Easy on the overalls, spaceman. It's tough all over, all right?

Markowski:
And all for what? A lousy medal?

Ralph:
[ding] Medal? You win a medal?

Markowski:
Yeah, Medal of Heroes.

Ralph:
Ooh. Is it shiny?

Markowski:
Eh-Pretty shiny.

Ralph:
Ooh! And it says "hero" on it?

Markowski:
Uh-huh. Oh, yeah.

Ralph:
And you say you win it by climbing a building?

Markowski:
AND FIGHTING BUGS!

Ralph:
Right, bugs. Listen, is there any chance I could go with you to your game and, you know, maybe get one of those medals?

Markowski:
Negatory.

Ralph:
Does that mean maybe?

Markowski:
No! Look, only the bravest and the best serve in our corps. [sees a cockroach who climbs on Ralph's shoulder] BUG!!!! [shrieks and runs himself into the wall, knocking himself out]

[Ralph sees the helmet rolling to him in front, then flicks the cockroach off again.]

[Wreck it Ralph is at Bad Anon where he just finished how hard his life and game is, everyone starts clapping]

Clyde:
Nice share, Ralph. As fellow Bad Guys, we've all felt what you're feeling and we've come to terms with it.

Ralph:
Really?

Zangief:
Right here. I am Zangief. I am Bad Guy.

Everyone including Ralph:
Hi, Zangief.

Zangief:
I relate to you, Ralph. When I hit bottom, I was crushing man's skull like sparrow egg between my thighs. [in meantime, smacks his thigh] And I think, "Why do you have to be so bad, Zangief? Why can't you be more like Good Guy?" Then I have moment of clarity. If Zangief is Good Guy, who'll crush man's skull like sparrow's egg between thighs? [Smacks his thigh again] And I say, "Zangief, you are Bad Guy, but this does not mean you are 'bad' guy."

[Everyone claps at Zangief's understandings except Ralph] Ralph:
Right. I'm sorry. You lost me there

Zombie:
Zombie! Bad Guy!

Everyone including Ralph:
Hi Zombie.

Zombie:
Zangief saying labels not make you happy. Good! Bad! [Growls] You must love you.

Kano:
Yeah! Inside Here! [He rips out Zombie's heart]

Ralph:
Okay. All right, I get you. Watch out. It's dripping.

Clyde:
Question, Ralph. We've been asking you to Bad-Anon for years now, and tonight you finally show up. Why is that?

Ralph:
I dunno, I just felt like coming. I mean, I suppose it has something to do with the fact that uh... well, today's the 30th anniversary of my game.

Satan:
Happy anniversary, Ralph.

Ralph:
Thanks, Satan.

Satan:
Uh, it's "Sateen", actually.

Ralph:
Got it. But here's the thing... I don't wanna be the bad guy anymore.

[The Bad-Anon members gasp, Bowser breathes fire balls & Clyde turns blue]

Kano:
You can't mess with the program, Ralph!

Bison:
You're not goin' Turbo, are you?

Ralph:
Turbo?! No, I'm not going Turbo! C'mon, guys! Is it "Turbo" to want a friend? Or a medal? Or a piece of pie every once in a while? Is it "Turbo" to want more out of life?

Zombie:
Yes.

Clyde:
Ralph, Ralph, we get it. But we can't change who we are. The sooner you accept that, the better off your game and your life will be.

Zangief:
Hey. One game at a time, Ralph.
