Line 5: A computer-animated movie released by [[Lionsgate]], in Fall 2010. '''''Alpha And Omega''''' focuses on two wolves on opposite ends of their pack's social order. Kate is an Alpha, who takes her job seriously, and Humphrey is an Omega, who spends his days joking around with his friends. Kate is [[Arranged Marriage\|to be married to]] Garth, an Alpha wolf from another pack - not for love, but to preserve peace. However, the marriage is put on hold when Kate and Humphrey are sedated and taken a thousand miles away from home, to... repopulate. They must work together to [[~~Theres~~There's No Place Like Home\|get back home]], but falling in love with each other complicates everything. To make matters worse, it's a race against time - back home, conflict is brewing among rival packs... ~~----~~ {{tropelist}} * [[Action Girl]]: Kate. Line 52: * [[Drool Hello]]: Bear slobber on Humphrey after he accidentally hurts the bear's child. * [[Earn Your Happy Ending]]: {{spoiler\|Humphrey}} gets this after {{spoiler\|he rescues Kate from the caribou stampede, and after realizing how their differences almost got them killed, both packs abolish to become one and Humphrey and Kate end up together.}} * [[Everything's Worse ~~With~~with Bears]]: Trailers depict Kate and Humphrey being cornered by a group of bears, subverted as they are apparently weak enough to be beaten up by wolves. Actually, it's yet another case of [[Never Trust a Trailer]]. {{spoiler\|It takes a lot of trickery and even more luck, and even then they only get away by the skin of their teeth. And aside from Kate's remark hinting at [[Suicidal Overconfidence]].}} * Also, according to [[The Other Wiki]], [[wikipedia:Gray Wolf#Relationships with other predators\|evidently wolves can sometimes win]] against Bears, "Depending on context". 'Course, given the situation shown in the film: yeah, they'd be in trouble. Line 77: ** Garth: "Let me show you what an Alpha can really do." Lilly: "Uuuh, would my mother approve?" * [[Gosh Dang It to Heck]] {{quote\| '''Humphrey:''' (Upon seeing [[Drool Hello\|the slobber on his face]] and [[This Is Gonna Suck\|a very pissed-off bear]]) "[[Oh Crap\|Oh, poo]]..."}} * [[Granola Girl]]: Two vegetarian she-wolves. Don't worry, they only get a single bit of dialogue, and it's really more of a [[Brick Joke]]. * [[G-Rated Drug]]: Kate and Humphrey acting trippy after sedation, complete with a background acid sequence. Line 84: * [[I Don't Want to Ruin Our Friendship]]: It's implied that Kate said this to Humphry off-screen after their howling session. * [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]: Humphrey and Kate are surrounded by 3 bears, Humphrey tries to get them out of trouble with a joke. {{quote\| '''Humphrey:''' "[[Analogy Backfire\|Two bears are eating a clown]] and one of them asks 'Does it taste funny to you?'"~~<br~~ /> '''Humphrey:''' "A simple boo would have sufficed." }} * [[Instant Sedation]]: [[Subverted]]. [[Never Trust a Trailer]]. * [[Jerk Jock]]: Garth to Humphrey. * [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Gold]]: Tony suggests this near the end of the film. * [[Mama Bear]]: Eve is usually a nice, sweet Mom with an unusually violent preference of solutions, but so much as ''hint'' that one of her daughters is "In Trouble" or heaven forbid ''dead''... Nice knowing you. Eve's death threats are [[Played for Laughs]] the first two times and she's in her normal calm, smiling personality. However, the last time when this trope is evoked, she gets absolutely furious and looks it. {{quote\| '''Eve:''' "If any of you wolves have hurt my daughter, I will personally RIP out your eyes, and SHOVE them down your throat ''so you can see my claws '''TEAR YOUR CARCASS OPEN!''' ''"}} There is also an actual [[Mama Bear]] at one point. * [[Missing Mom]]: Garth doesn't have a mom. This could say a lot about [[Jerkass\|his father]], [[Fridge Horror\|considering his nature]]. Line 127: * [[Surfer Dude]]: Salty is basically a wolf version of this. * [[That Makes Me Feel Angry]]: After Kate disappears, Eve goes into full [[Mama Bear]] mode and threatens the entire Eastern Pack in a murderous fury. Lilly then gets this reaction from her by trying to get her attention: "Not now, dear, [[Captain Obvious\|mommy's in a rage]]." * [[~~Theres~~There's No Place Like Home]]: The entire plot. * [[Tuck and Cover]]: {{spoiler\|Humphrey jumps on top of Kate during a stampede after she was knocked out to protect her. This also [[Earn Your Happy Ending\|Earns His Happy Ending]] by convincing Winston to let him and her be mates.}} * [[Unusual Euphemism]]: For wolves, "pup" seems to replace the word "babe".
