Plot As in the previous films, the protagonists are the mammoth Manny, the sloth Sid, the saber-toothed cat Diego, and, in a parallel storyline, the saber-toothed sq uirrel Scrat. Scrat's hunt for acorns triggers the break-up of the Pangaea landm ass into the continents as we know them today. In the meantime, Manny and his wi fe Ellie deal with their teenage daughter Peaches who has a crush on Ethan. Peac hes' best friend, a molehog named Louis, appears to have a crush on her. Sid's f amily (who had abandoned him), appear to have been looking for him, but it is re vealed that they only want to leave Sid's annoying Granny with him and leave him again, leaving Sid to wonder whether his family loves him or not. When Manny ca tches Peaches hanging with Ethan after he told her not to, Manny and Peaches hav e a falling out. Soon after, the breakup of the continent separates Manny from h is family. Manny gets stuck on a floating ice raft with Sid, Diego and Granny. A large moving landmass drives Ellie, Peaches, Crash and Eddie, Louis, Ethan, and a herd of other animals towards a land bridge, where Manny had told them to go. Meanwhile, Scrat, also lost at sea, comes across an island and runs when he sees a skeleton. He then finds an acorn-shaped map, which leads to a mysterious acor n-filled island. Scrat decides to follow the map and find the island. As he begi ns his journey, he is captured by a gang of animal pirates on a large ship-shape d iceberg, who are sailing the oceans. Manny and his friends are also captured by the pirate gang, led by a Gigantopith ecusnamed Gutt. Gutt and the pirate gang attempt to shanghai Manny, telling him to forget his family and former life and join the pirates, but he refuses. Gutt takes this as an insult, and attempts to make the herd walk the plank, but they (along with Scrat, who continues his journey) manage to escape, in the process d estroying the pirate ship, and again float on the oceans on a small ice raft. Th ey rescue the female pirate saber-toothed cat Shira, who had been left behind by the pirates. She reluctantly joins the group, and slowly begins to fall in love with Diego. The group reaches an island and encounters a group of hyraxes, as well as the pi rates, who are building a new ice ship elsewhere on the same island. The herd pl an to steal the ship and use it to get home. The next morning, as the herd is pr eparing their plan, Shira escapes and rejoins the pirates, but gets chocked and threatened to be killed by Gutt instead of being welcomed back, after Gutt reali zes that she had not attacked them but she had tricked Gutt into saving Manny an d the herd. The herd, along with the hyraxes, overtake the new ice ship and, wit h some help from Shira, sail away. Gutt, in anger, quickly turns a new iceberg i

nto a ship, propelled by narwhals, and chases Manny's gang, determined to get re venge. Meanwhile, Peaches has been still hanging with Ethan and a group of teenage mamm oths, but after realizing that they don't care about the danger and thinking tha t being a best friend with a molehog is ridiculous, she leaves them and returns to Louis. When Ellie, Peaches, Louis, Crash and Eddie reach the land bridge, the y find it to be destroyed. Meanwhile, Manny, Sid, Granny and Diego encounter sir ens, depicted as sharp-toothed creatures who take the shape of loved ones and at tempt to lure the sailors. Fortunately, Manny realizes this and manages to steer the ship away from the sirens. Later, Scrat meets a siren, which uses the shape of his former girlfriend from the third film, Scratte, to attempt to lure him. Scrat blows a raspberry and ignores it, however the siren takes the shape of an acorn, causing Scrat to get hype and hug it. The siren changes back and attacks Scrat, but he is able to get away. The next morning, Manny, Sid, Diego and Granny finally reach home, but, much to their horror, find out that Gutt and his pirate gang had beaten them to it and c aptured Ellie and Peaches. Manny attempts to turn himself in to Gutt in exchange for releasing his family, but Gutt doesn't keep his side of the bargain and pre pares to kill the family. Louis, come to their rescue, starting a battle, during which Shira rescues Diego, and Granny's presumed imaginary pet Precious, a giga ntic Livyatan melvillei, appears, defeating the pirates by spraying them after S id blocks her blowhole. Peaches rescues Manny, but as they are about to escape, Gutt attacks him again. Gutt and Manny engage in a final fight, but Manny manage s to defeat him with his heavy body and using a log as a bat to smack Gutt far a way. Manny arrives in time to pick up Ellie and Peaches, who are caught between the moving landmass and the ocean at the location where the land bridge once exi sted. Meanwhile, Gutt is killed when he ends up being tricked and devoured by a siren, taking on the shape of a female of his species. After sailing over the oc ean, the herd and all the animals find another continent (where the hyraxes have gone, too) which they accept as their new home. Manny and Peaches reconcile, Ma nny finally admits that Sid is not the screw-up after all, Sid fixes Granny's pr oblem of having no teeth, Diego and Shira become a couple, and Louis is finally allowed to be with Peaches whenever she hangs out with Ethan's gang. The film ends with Scrat finally reaching the island on the map, Scratlantis (a Scrat version of Atlantis); a floating city filled with other sabre-toothed squi rrels and nuts. However, Scrat, due to his nut obsession, grabs many nuts in fre nzy and eventually attempts to grab a giant one blocking a hole. He grabs it, de spite the sabre-toothed squirrel leader's warnings, causing the city to sink to the bottom of the ocean, leaving Scrat in the middle of a desert in North Americ a. Scrat's eyes burn and he screams in pain and frustration.
