The meeting is a disaster. Jewel is fierce, free-spirited, and longs to fly—the opposite of Blu. Before they can connect, they are kidnapped by a cockatoo named Nigel (Clement), a bitter, theatrical villain working for an exotic animal smuggling ring. Chained together, Blu and Jewel must escape into the chaotic, colorful city of Rio.
