But you did. - What? Me?
No, though. I feel good cut me.

You really think so?
Zo.
This nightgown must be washed.
This is delicious.
GV... BFG?
What did you do last night in the village? - It's private and personal secretly.
But what did you do with that trumpet?
I saw you blew it.
You are more curious than one aagje. - I will not really ask for more.
Well, if you must know it. I have a dream in that room geblaast.
Blow you dream? - Yes, that's my job.
If all those other giants weggaloppeert hunting for human fabrications...
... I will dream about with my old suitcase.
Beautiful dreams for children.
You can not dream in one case have . They're in your head.
I knew you would not understand. I tell nothing.
Oh, come on.
I say nothing, not a word more against you, for you are dressed.
Have you made for me?
It's not very special. Beware t but even if you want.
I've never had a new dress. And I wanted so badly.
And a place to live, as here.
You are sure to show a blind eye? - I am not tired.
Can I have one sip of water? - D'r is not a sip of water here.
Only fropskottel.
Certainly grease truly disgusting and helpful, like snoskommer.
Oh, no. That does you wrong. Fropskottel is sweet and zwijmelig.
It heats all the muscles of your heart. - Yeah, I suppose.
This is well fropskottel.
Have you ever seen so blessed bruiselijk stuff?
Oh look, it 's buzzing in the wrong direction. The bubbles go down, not up.
Of course, bubbles will not rise. - Where I come from it.
Bells going up 's a raunchy dangerousness.
Why?
If bubbles bubbling up, come they look like a prisperige farmer.
Yes, but there is still nothing against?
Nothing against? That's verrezelijk.
Giants will never do that. - But if bubbles go down, then...
... they escape somewhere else. - Yes, you have all the right bar.
And that makes one much worse sound. - A flash popper.
What? - A flash popper.
It's a sign of happiness. It is music to millions.
Not true. It's indecent.
Your man still makes baked goods also flash poppers. Yeah, right?
Yes, but... - Of course. Everybody's doing it.
A sip of this prickly spullie and you see the universe
is jummie, diedeldedummie and you shoot off with a bang
three times three is seventy and fropskottel gives three kilos interested
it is remarkable, peculiar that people do not flash dolls where they are
ahead, but trial.
It's... It's fantastic.
This is just the beginning.
Here comes one flash popper. - You still do not indecent?
Flitspop, flash bang, go feel the bubbles
Flash bang, flitspop, yes, they come
flitspop, flash bang, bright and sonorous
nothing is so wonderful and indispensable as flash dolls all day
Well you. - No.
It starts with a sip of 't stuff which pricks your tongue
you feel it go, it is not to resist
beautiful stuff takes a dive and enters your inner belly
= = I feel the bubbles in my stomach itch.
I'm going to believe me...
flitspop, flash bang, feel the bubbles go
flash bang, flitspop, yes, they come
flitspop, flash bang, clear and sonorous
Nothing is so wonderful and indispensable as flash dolls all day
it squeaks, chirps and splatters you launched
your flashes, whizzes and bounces, which you never learned
it is truly fropskottel not harmless acts like a rocket
go to your head, but your toes drink it but not in your bed
flitspop, flash bang, feel the bubbles go
flash bang, flitspop, yes, they come
flitspop, flash bang, bright and sonorous
nothing is so wonderful and indispensable as flash dolls all day
nothing is so wonderful and indispensable as flash dolls
You is very good for a beginner. Do you sometimes?

Bad mood? I thought he would murder you .
No, no. Giants kills no other giants.

Certainly very rare, huh? - Yes, it's the rarest thing there is.
Later they fly in swarms around today.
Hups, there I go.
D'r is something there. - Of course.
Quickly, I got another one.
Can I look up later? - So you believe it now?
Oh, yeah. - Come with me.
I can not. How do you do that? - It never works unless you try it.
I can fly. - See?
Secretly in your dream
looking up now and then
a place far from home
where no one can get
Alone on a cloud where nothing is around you
than moon and stars and sun
and you float there so badly and you tumble down
beware soon touch the ground
secretly in your dream
can you find and then
a place far from home
where nobody can come
you never want to leave there
Look, there's one behind you. Get him.
Secretly, far from home
where nobody can come
Look out, look out. Gotcha. - What is it? What did you catch?
A troll beater. - An animal?
No, a dream. The duivelste dream of all.
Why do we keep it? - I'm going to him trapped inside.
This gives kids nightmares. - Let's go quickly.
Where are we going?
The little children do not side without their dreams?
We will pack our suitcase.
Here? - No.
Here, in my dream cave.
BFG, it's just heaven.
These are dreams.
All dreams.
Sometimes I come down here, only but to look at them.
I want to always look . It's magic.
Dreams are mysterious things, but it is not magic.
Dreams really like this troll beater.
That will put me at all my other griezelgrubels.
So, which side do not make little children afraid.
What are you doing?
Oh, I wrote labels.
For if I keep the bottles apart.
Do you know where the dream becomes if you listen to it?
I only hear some kind gekinkel. - You have very good ears.
That dream music. It is a kind of language.
What does it mean?
This is a dream about a boy being invisible.
Nice, can we take him? - I first makes a pass corpse slot.
What do you mean?
Your man fabrications really do not know much, do you?
Dreaming is no tales. Dreams is more like...
... like pictures in a book.
And I still want to make a story, then all I mixes dreams together.
Here I have an end.
I hates algebra...

... math teacher so running away.
Nice. Very suitable for a boy. - Say that again. It is a gnifgnuiver.
We will'm soon to give someone.
You start with him?
How do you know what he likes? - If I were to peek inside...
... I get one itch inside and I know it.
If he pressed his navel, he becomes invisible.
Go on, put it on. - Let's see how the teacher is afraid.
What happens?
Oh, no. A ghost. Stay away from me.
Come, we can not stay here. We blows even trillions dreams tonight.

I've never had so much fun. It's like I'm...
Oh, stop him.

I side not stop him.
He would strike me down and crush tars. - You're a coward.
Yes, but I also goest run away to save you.

There will be many, many more disappear tonight.
What do you mean? - I did hear them talking.

Well, the Queen of England. It is certainly not glibberslijmer.
Well...
No glibberslijmer and no premiums miss and no mercury rotter.
Yes, we do. We go to the queen.
She believes you from his haze days. - Then let 't believe her.

Yes, it will succeed.
So, he's ready.
Yes, it has become as like you invented.
I hope very much that this plan will work .
I hope so too.

Flash Dolls is more beautiful than bagpipes, Majestin.
That will probably. Come, play 't agree.
No, do not do it, though.
I side are difficult onbehoorzaam a real queen.
I think I'd rather hear a bagpipe.
It is fixed on those children? - What kids?
They're gone tonight. - Oh, that. Nonsense.

Well? - Eh exist.
No, anyway. Not anymore. - Yeah look, Your Majesty...
Take, for that matter from those tracks.

Tanks and heavy artillery. - Artillery? Madness.
Strakjes you would like cavalry too. - Tanks, artillery and cavalry.
Nothing more. - This requires modern technology.
Low-flying bombers, powerful explosives...

It is an old enemy, so is an old tactic necessary.
They weaken with one bombardment, further with tanks and then it machinegun.
We mow them down.
Tanks.
Lord. - Yes, Your Majesty.
There are no bombs and guns. - Excuse me, ma'am?
The Giants are not harmed. - What?

Okay, boy.
It's okay. I got you.

You've heard how he speaks. He firmly counts.
Look out, look out.
BFG?
I come and get you.
Quick, hide.
BFG, come back. - I was now the only one who can stop him.
I want to be a coward.
You're not a coward. Sorry. Come back.
You, you showed them the way.
Exactly Indeed, I showed them the way.
Why? What?
You are a bad guy. I'm very best.
You are not a giant.

Then I will kill you.
No, stay away from him.

Sofie who can not go to the orphanage because we closed the...
... will have its own place in our in the palace.
She and her little buddy from the home may live here as long as they want.
What we do with Ms. Clonkers, is still unknown.
Ms. Clonkers can give the Giants food.
We do not want that they are people eat more?
No people majestin. Dirty snoskommers.
And something else will no longer to eat.
Then Mrs. Clonkers may be their keeper.
Finally, our friend will have the BFG...
... the greatest and most beautiful palace we have.
There he may live the rest of his life .
O noble Majestin...
... I thank you from the bottom of my...
... my... - Heart.
My heart.
It's a very large gentleman you make me.
But I have ervandoort. - You are not going away?
Going?
I still have work to do, see, Majestin.
There is another blow to dreams. I must continue.
I understand 't completely. Everyone simply his responsibilities.
Exactly Truly.
Goodbye, Majestin.
Goodbye, and thank you very much.
Farewell, human fabrications.
You have one fine place to live now, as you always wanted.
