Years later, out of screen, Scrat chases his acorn until they both fell in a cold lake where they remains frozen in an ice cube for 20,000 years. He tries to melt his frozen acorn but it turns into a popcorn, much to Scrat's dismay. Scrat emerged from the snow and mistaken a draw for his acorn thus knocking his head and losing his senses.Īfter having woke up and having found his way out of the cave, Scrat goes forward North and finds a cave close to Half Peak where the same mammals that asked him directions are sleeping. Scrat tries to take his acorn out but he can't and he's forced into the ice by Sid, Diego, Manny and Roshan as the latters crashed into him, this caused the ice wall to be reduced in snow that covered all of them. After having left the slide Scrat buries his acorn in a wall but he sees Sid once again as he's about to strike him down. Later Scrat goes further north where he finds an ice cavern and finishes in an ice slide. Manny asks Scrat if he saw any humans passing there but Scrat didn't see any humans and, unable to talk, tries to mimate that he saw sabretooth tigers passing there but Manny and Sid don't understand what Scrat is referring to so he points at Diego but he's smacked away and finish in a slide gaining so much snow that he become a giant snowball that later strikes down Sid. Then Scrat goes further North where he met Sid once again, toting an human baby named Roshan and accomplished by a mammoth named Manny and a sabretooth named Diego. Later, off-screen, he sees a pack of sabretooth tigers passing by and continues to try to hide his acorn. Scrat migrates and successfully stores his acorn in an hallowed tree until he finds a ground sloth named Sid looking for a midnight snack, he reaches the three inside and take the acorn but before he can eat it Scrat attacks him and leaves the scene shaking his fist to Sid. unluckily he gets zapped by a thunder, much to his dismay. Later, off-screen, he eventually gets off of under the Macrauchenia's foot and escapes from the migration finding a place where he could hide his acorn while it's raining. There he's stepped on by two mammoths, a rhino, a dodo and then by a male Macrauchenia, then he remains stuck under the foot of the latter that steps on him at anytime he lands his foot to the ground while she walks, much to Scrat's frustration. Scrat is first seen trying to bury his acorn for the winter but he causes two glaciers to close, luckily he successfully escapes and lands in another place. Scrat's desire for acorns has proven to be very self-destructive, and to everyone around him, even destroying an entire civilization of Scratlantis. Scrat is also responsible for several important occurrences in the Paleolithic ice age such as Pangea and the formation of Death Valley. It’s truly the end of an era for Blue Sky Studios, but for the talented and hard-working people that made it something special, it’s an unforgettable chapter in an ongoing story.Scrat is a squirrel who is totally obsessed with acorns, however he never manages to achieve one and instead causes himself massive physical pain. It’s just Scrat, in a pretty relaxed state, as he finally picks up his acorn and enjoys it for the first and last time. For once there are no wacky hijinks, no slapstick, no suffering. And that’s probably the true power of this final shot. The little guy has struggled with glaciers, lightning, crumbling earth, and just about every representative of the elements has been against him. Time has not been kind to Scrat as a character. It would terrorize a hapless creature, and hence the Scrat." The Ice Age itself should have a presence. "The Scrat sequence was born from my feeling that the landscape should be a character as well. In a 2002 interview with Ain’t It Cool News, Wedge talks about Scrat’s debut in the very first Ice Age movie. Wedge, aside from voicing the furry friend, is most well known for co-founding Blue Sky Studios as well as directing Ice Age, Robots, Epic, and Monster Trucks. From his debut to his curtain call, Scrat was voiced by Chris Wedge.
