Scrat's nutty pursuit of the cursed acorn, which he's been after since
the dawn of time, has world-changing consequences - a continental
cataclysm that triggers the greatest adventure of all for Manny, Diego
and Sid. In the wake of these upheavals, Sid reunites with his
cantankerous Granny, and the herd encounters a ragtag menagerie of
seafaring pirates determined to stop them from returning home.
