Except one of them named Albert who is very different than the rest of them since he never want to be a dancer, swimmer and singer so instead, he wishes to be scientist like his favorite scientist from the poster named Albert Einstein whom he idolized him so they made fun of him and treat him like an lonely outcast since he is a duck and ducks don’t became scientists like he was. So they refused to be friends with him, give him gifts for his birthday and even judge him before they even know him. However, not all ducks don’t like him and treat him like dirt. It is one female duck with a pink bow named Florence, who is secretly wishes to be a nurse to help others in need, was interested in him and his scientific intelligence so she supports him until she develop a crush on him.

He told her that he was being an outcast, who wants to become a scientist like Albert Einstein from his storybook and history, but he is a duck and he decided to run away from the village to follow his destiny. She goes with him because she never wants to leave him and wanted to be there for him to support his dream.

Later, they arrived at New York City until a man in a doctor coat with a net captured them so he took them to the animal shelter. Later in the room filled with animals in cages, Albert and Florence were talking to each other about what will their future dreams will be and find a way to fit in with the ducky society. Next morning, they were adopted by a 15 year old white skinned girl with freckles, long orange hair down to her elbows with bangs, green eyes, pink T-shirt, blue denim knee shorts, pink sandals and pink belt named Virginia to take care of them and also need them for her biology class to research them. Albert and Florence were nervous of her because she is a human and that their parents said that humans are dangerous to animals. During her care, they start warming up to her and they can talk to her which makes her surprised and said that animals don’t talk.

Then, Albert is the first one to talk to Virginia about his life he has gone through until he met Florence and they ran away from home to follow their destinies. Next, he explains his dreams that he wants to be like Albert Einstein. Virginia was very intrigued about his dream and impressed of his scientific knowledge. He proves it by writing mathematics on her lined paper with a pencil and even writes, “E = mc²” and more. Next, Florence told her that she wants to be a nurse to help the ducky villagers to keep them healthy and alive.

Virginia admits that her mother wants to be a doctor to help others too. The ducky couple was amazed of her mother’s dream of being a doctor. Next, she explain to them that everybody has paths and dreams to follow because it’s just the way who they are and being themselves with different dreams that they wanna grow up to be. She told her new ducky friends that she wants to grow up to be a biologist until she was being teased for her obsession with biology and treated like an outcast too sometimes, but her new friends stand up for her and told them that everybody have different dreams to follow and need to be who they are no matter how much they are different or not. Any societies need to accept anyone with different dreams just the way they are and it doesn’t matter if they are different or same. It’s about be yourself with different dreams, knowledge and talent skills.

Later that night, Albert and Florence help Virginia finish her biology homework until the next day, she got an A+ on her test and now her parents are proud of her. Virginia suggested that it’s what students with different dreams gotta do what students gotta do and that she is a go-getter who never wants to give up her dream with confidence and motivation. Next, she decided to show them her ducky friends that they are most intelligent ducks with scientific knowledge and they should be on TV to become famous.

Two days later, Albert and Florence became famous TV ducky stars and teaches the kids and everyone in all ages about medicines and scientific physics. Meanwhile in the ducky village, everyone saw them on the newspapers that were dropped from the pelicans. After they read the whole thing, they suddenly realize how harsh and mean they had been to them and became impressed of their knowledge. So Albert’s father who is a mayor of the ducky village wrote an apology letter and gave it to the pelican to send it to his son. So it flew off to New York about 1 or 2 days.

Later at the park, it found Albert and Florence in Virginia’s little brother named Erik’s birthday party so it drops it to them. Albert opens it and reads it. All it said, “Dear Albert, please come back home. We’re sorry for treating you like dirt and being harsh to you for being different from the rest of us.” This touches their hearts and they decided to tell Virginia and everyone that they need to go home where all their families and people need them.

However, the greedy, thin Italian director of the show named Gifre with black slick hair, black goatee and director clothes won’t allow them so he kidnaps them, take them to his basement where he lock them up in the bird cage and reveal his evil plan that he desires them to work for him to make more money for him and make him rich so he is money-hungry. He admits that he was totally impressed of their scientific brains and logic skills and realized that the more they became famous and the more they make money. Albert and Florence were surprised of his evil greed. Then, he went upstairs to go to bed while stretching his arms and yawning since it was nighttime.

Few moments later, Albert starts crying and became both homesick and hopeless he admitted. Florence comforts him and confesses his romantic feelings for him. Feeling blushed and surprise, he confesses his romantic feelings from the day they first met. So they embraced and kissed each other.

Suddenly, Virginia sneaks in by dropping in from the basement window to rescue them after finding out how greedy and cruel Gifre is. They are very happy to see her and she uses her hair bobby pin to unlock the cage. They thanked her for rescuing them and being a good human friend to them. Then, Virginia has an idea to show evidence to the publicity so she quietly took pictures of them in the cage and then the sign that said, “House property by Gifre Lobucks”. She put Albert, Florence and the camera into her backpack and escaped.

She jumps onto her bicycle and drove to the police station where she shows those photos as evidences to the police. Albert and Florence came out of her backpack and explains to the police officer about Gifre kidnaps them earlier and uses them to make money for him with all his evil greed. The police officer agrees as he looks at those photos she taken with a camera and choose to believe them. Later that night, four police cars drove to Gifre’s house and barged in. Gifre heard them so he got out of his bed, put on his slippers and tried to run away, but is surrounded by the police officers and got arrested for kidnapping. One of them suggested him that kidnapping with greed is illegal and he will be sentenced to maximum imprisonment of 8 years.

With him sent to jail, now Albert and Florence are happy to go home. Virginia told them that she and everyone in New York are gonna miss them. They told her that they promise to come visit her in New York anytime they want and told her that they will always be there for her. Albert looks up at the pelican in the sky so he call out to it. It heard them so it flew down to them and Albert requested it to take them home to their ducky village. It accepted, gave them a ride on its back and flew them home. They waved each other goodbye.

Meanwhile in jail, the police officer talk to Gifre that the film boss said that Gifre is now fired for his greed and illegal kidnapping act. This makes Gifre guilty and dismayed. Back in the ducky village, every duck is happy to see Albert and Florence alive and remorsefully told them that they are sorry for treating Albert like an outcast and then, Florence confesses her dream of being a nurse. This makes them amazed and realized what they need is a nurse to heal them and keep them healthy. Now everything has changed into new, better life and every duck had finally accepted Albert and Florence to be who they want to be after realizing their errors. Always remember: always believe in yourself, follow your true dreams, be yourself and both motivation and paths will lead you to the path of success and dream where the future life awaits for you.
