Plot
After the events of the first film, Scrat after having found a new acorn, discovers a huge tree hollowed out and filled to the brim with acorns. There is one more empty spot in the middle of the acorns where Scrat tries to stuff the last acorn he brought with him (he first tries to put it in the same way he had done in the opening of the first film, but he seems to remember what would happen if he did, so he gently screws it in instead). However, it pops back out when his back is turned and after two more tries at getting it in place both of which end up with the same result, Scrat gets angry and stomps it into place, causing all the acorns to fall out of a large hole in the tree. The avalanche of acorns sends Scrat sliding down the side of a mountain. The acorns and Scrat then go into free fall.
A short musical scene follows (to the tune of Tchaikovsky's Sleeping Beauty Waltz) with Scrat collecting acorns as he falls. Eventually Scrat collects and forms a CGI sphere with the acorns, but then (with Scrat on top of it) it tilts upside down so Scrat and the acorns finally land hard on the icy land down below. There is one lone acorn left in the atmosphere (presumably the one he was trying to stuff into the tree). Scrat, who is still stuck in the snow, is only able to free his arms before the acorn impacts right between his eyes with the force of a rifle bullet. The extreme force with which the acorn hits the ground causes a great big earthquake, which shapes the Earth's continents (probably Pangaea) into their present-day form, taking all the other acorns with them and trapping Scrat on the original spot from the center of the impact. When Scrat digs out the acorn that hit him, he finds it has been charred and thus crumbled into ash. In disappointment and defeat, he turns to the camera, then sighs and puts on the remaining acorn cap as a beret.
