We're on it. Fine!
Look... I don't care what level
You're on, numbuh 105.
Put that video game down and
Find out what knightbrace is
Doing in poughkeepsie.
Sector pdq, I told you I want
That broccoli farm shut down
A.s.a. Now!
Moon base out.
Ugh!
Sir, I needed these official
Orders signed 73.0
Burger-seconds ago.
I'm sorry, numbuh 65.3... Ow!
Hey, little help, numbuh 362?
Would you guys mind playing
Whizbee on the whizbee deck and
Not on my bridge?
Uh, yes, sir, ma'am.
Hey, dude, go long this time.
I can't believe this.
Sir, what about those papers
That need authorization?
I... Uh...
Numbuh 362, sector "b" is
Under att*ck by angry history
Teachers.
The cotton-candy machines are
Filled with ants.
Can you tie my shoelaces?
Numbuh 362, do you have my
Permission slip?
[ All speaking frantically ]
Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Okay.
I'll get on that.
Yeah. I'll try. Ow!
Hey, little help, numbuh 362.
That's it!
I want every kids next door
Operative at the kids next door
Super convention center for a
Quintuple-importanic,
Supersecret meeting at 0500!
Oh, boy!
If numbuh 362 called for a
Meeting here, it's got to be
Something really cool.
Maybe she's gonna commend us
In front of everyone for our
Defeat of midwestern mom and her
Homemade coleslaw beast.
Well, whatever this is about,
It better be quick.
I got to pee so bad.
Kids next door, attention!
Kids next door rule!
All: kids next door rule,
Sir!
At ease, everyone.
I've got something super, double
Important to tell you all.
It's something that I hate to
Do, but it simply can't wait any
Longer.
- I'd like to say... - Ooh-oo-oo-ooh!
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh!
Ooh-oo-oo ooh-hoo!
Numbuh 362?
Yes, numbuh 4?
Can I go to the bathroom,
Please?
Can't it wait?
I'm kind of in the middle of
Something important here.
But I really, really,
Re-hee-hee-ally...
Okay, just go already!
Yes! Excuse me. Pardon me.
Sorry. Excuse me. Whoa. Whoa!
- [ Crash ] - I'm okay.
What I was trying to say is
That running this organization
Is an all-consuming job, one
That requires strength,
Patience, and a willingness to
Share your candy with everyone.
And at this point, I feel I have
Exhausted those very things.
So it is at this time, fellow
Kids next door, that I must
Say...
Tag! You're it.
[ Squeals ]
[ All gasp ]
I'm it?! What'll I do?
What'll I do? What'll I do?
[ Toilet flushes ]
Ahhhh!
Man, I was gonna explode.
Hey, where'd everybody go?
Tag! You're it!
Hey, you come back here right
Now.
[ All gasp ]
Ru-u-u-u-u-u-u-n!
Come back!
Ahhh! Whew!
Wa-a-a-a-gh!
Relax. It's just me.
Oh, sorry, numbuh 1.
I thought you might be it.
Yeah.
- Wouldn't want that, now, would - we?
So, why don't you want to be it
Anymore, rachel?
Isn't it fun anymore?
Fun?
Everyone knows there's nothing
Fun about being supreme leader
Of the kids next door.
That's why we have a stupid game
Of tag to decide who does it.
But you wanted the job after
Chad left, and you've been the
Best one yet.
I mean, under your leadership,
There's been a 60% reduction in
The world's broccoli supply.
Please.
- It's operatives like you that do - the real work.
I'm just stuck on the moon base
Doing paperwork.
- I don't get to go on missions - anymore.
I have to keep
Colleventy-hundred kids with
Short attention spans organized.
I just don't want to do it
Anymore, nigel.
So I called in a game of tag.
Whoever's it at noon... Leading
The kids next door will be their
Problem.
You know, I once thought that
I might make a great supreme
Leader.
But then one day I realized that
I probably couldn't handle the
Pressure.
Really?
When did you realize that?
Just now.
Some people... Like numbuh 100,
Numbuh 274, like you... Were
Made for this job.
You're smart, organized, and you
Know just when it's time to take
A cookie break.
Sure, it's hard, but I'll bet
That's what makes it exciting
For you.
- I'd hate to see you give that - up.
Thanks, nigel, but no thanks.
I think I'm done.
I don't think you want to
Touch me.
After all, I am it.
[ Gasps ]
Good luck, rachel, with
Whatever you decide.
Look out! He's it!
[ All squeal frantically ]
[ Breathing heavily ]
[ Gasps ]
Aaaah!
♪ I'm it, I'm it
♪ Oh, herbie hop and I are it
But not for long, herbie!
W-ooaoo-ooaoo-oah!
Wha-a-a-ough!
Yay! I'm not it!
Can I have this one?
No.
How about that one?
- [ Growls ] - I told you 100 times already...
No money, no hot dog.
Th-i-i-i-is one?
[ Growls ]
Eh! Oh! Ow! Ow! Aw! Doh!
Yes?
Tag. You're it.
Hot dog!
I'm gonna be the leader of the
Kids next door.
Oh, no, you're not.
Anyone but him.
Look out. Numbuh 23 is it.
Tag. You're it.
[ Both gasp ]
Tag. You're it.
No, I'm not. You're it.
No way. You're it.
You're it.
[ Crash ]
[ Tropical music plays ]
[ Laughs evilly ]
Don't even try it, mon.
Another mango smoothie, mon?
Tag. You're it.
Hey! Come back here, mon.
Tag. You're it, mon.
[ All gasp ]
Who's it?
Great horny toads, look out!
Tag. You're it.
Guten tag you very much.
Tag, y'all.
Das tag, comrade.
Tag. You're it, eh.
Whaa! She's it!
Man, that was close, but no one
Will ever find me in my
Uncharted supersecret
Suborbital hiding spot.
Ya-a-a-augh!
Come on, man.
Everybody knows you come up here
To read "rainbow monkeys in
Love" romance comic books.
No! I-i-i-i just read 'em for
The video-game ads.
I swear it.
Speaking of "it," you're
About to be, baby.
T.a.g.g. Missiles!
Time for some evasive action.
Yahoooooo!
Ha ha ha!
Wha?
[ Heartbeat ]
Wow!
Hey, nice try.
[ Growls ]
[ Giggles ]
Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Oh, your moves, grasshopper, are
Like elephants doing the mambo
In tapioca.
[ Breathing heavily ]
Wow!
You are just too good for me.
- You got to give me five on that - one, baby.
Well, when you're king of the
Skies, you're king of the skies.
Yi-yi-yi-yi!
More like king of the
Suckers, baby.
Tag. You're it.
Aaah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-haaa!
I got you!
Big deal.
That's why I borrowed this for
Just such an emergency.
Mmmm-mwah!
The kids-next-door code module
Holds the dna of every
Kids next door operative.
All I got to do is hook it up to
My ship's targeting computer,
And...
- [ Beeping ] - look at that.
There's a bunch of kids hiding
Up on the moon base.
And away we go.
[ Animal howls ]
Chewy pellet?
Don't worry, rachel.
I'm not it anymore.
- Are you sure you don't want to - be?
Time's almost up.
Well, then, whoever's it has
Got to be totally wetting
Themselves right now.
I am totally gonna wet myself
If I don't tag someone quick.
[ Robotic voice ] time
Remaining in "operation it" is
Now "t" minus 25 seconds.
No!
Yes. 23 Seconds.
Agh!
- There's someone right on the - other side of this door.
[ Beep ]
Tag. You're... Aaagh!
Oh, no. It looks like I'm it.
Rule number 60-buthousand
Clearly states that only a
Kids next door operative can be
Supreme leader.
[ All jeering ]
Oh, really?
What an oversight on my part.
I guess I'll just go pack up
And... Wait a second!
I a a kids next door operative.
Uh, steve, could you roll the
Tape, please?
How father became a
Kids next door operative...
Not long ago, father had a
Delightfully evil plan to turn
All kids next door operatives
Into animals using the dna
Stored in their code module.
But this plan was foiled by one
Tommy gilligan, who stuck his
Finger up father's nose and
Placed his booger into the code
Module, thereby turning the
Tables and transforming father
Himself into a dirty, smelly
Animal.
Way to go, tommy!
That's my little brother.
But by placing the booger
Into the code module, father was
Made an official kids next door
Operative.
Eh-heh-heh... Brother-in-law?
So, you see, I am a
Kids next door operative.
Well, you're not gonna be one
For long.
You're still way over the age
Of 13 and therefore scheduled
For immediate decommissioning.
No need to become hostile.
As the leader, I get to make the
Rules, right?
So new rule.
You can't decommission your
Supreme leader.
Wrong answer!
No. He's right.
The leader can make up the
Rules... Though a real leader
Wouldn't stoop to changing our
Traditions.
But... But... But...
No buts, fanny.
As kids next door operatives, we
Go by the rules.
[ Engines shut down ]
Listen, kids?
I know we've had our minor
Differences in the past, but by
Making me your supreme leader,
You have opened my eyes.
For once, I want to do something
Good for kids.
Like what?
Turn us all into single-cell
Cytoplasmic bicuspid
Invertebrates?
No, but that is very
Creative.
No, I propose that together we
Eradicate every last sprig of
Broccoli on earth.
[ Crickets chirping ]
Come on. Nobody likes broccoli.
We adults just make you kids eat
It so we don't have to.
He's got a point.
But together we can change
All that.
Tomorrow, using your numbers and
My adult tactical genius, we
Shall destroy the broccoli farms
And put an end to the cursed
Vegetable forever!
[ All cheering ]
Now, everyone, get back to your
Tree houses and get a good
Night's rest for tomorrow's
Mission.
Kids next door, battle stations!
Woo-hoo! No more broccoli.
I like this new leader already.
Oh, please, fool.
Father would just as soon grind
Kids into coffee and drink them
Than offer them help.
Precisely, numbuh 5.
- I don't trust father for a - second.
But rules are rules, so you guys
Head back to the tree house and
Get ready for whatever he's
Planning.
Aren't you coming with us,
Numbuh 1?
I'll catch up right after I
Check up on someone.
Shouldn't you be at your tree
House, numbuh 362?
[ Sniffles ] no.
I don't think I can show my face
Around the kids next door
Anymore.
I really screwed up.
I'm a terrible leader.
You were a great leader.
But I don't think your successor
Intends to be.
Together: [ monotone ]
Father, what do you mean you're
Going to do something good for
Kids?
Kids next door central root
Core.
[ Elevator dings ]
When I said I was gonna do
- Something good for kids, I meant - it.
And you know what's good for
Kids?
Broccoli!
And with my patent-pending
Broccoli virus uploaded into the
Tree-house root system, I'll
Create enough broccoli to feed
Every kid in the world.
And the only way to eradicate it
Is by eating it.
Whaaa-haa-haa-haa-haa-haa!
Let's get out of here, eh?
[ All gasp ]
Whoa!
Nasty, eh.
Oh, my goodness, gracious.
I fear broccoli.
Nyet! Ugh-uh-uh-uh! Broccoli.
Ugh! 7'S energy is so weak.
So, you see, my delightful
Children, revenge is a dish best
Served with broccoli.
Aaah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Enough!
Take this code module and track
Down any stragglers.
I'll see you on the moon base
For phase 2.
Come on.
What's happening?
We've got to get out of here.
Hold on.
[ Screaming ]
We're not gonna make it!
[ Screaming ]
Oh... Oh, ground, I missed you so
Much.
You'll have to get
Reacquainted later.
Father's cooking up something
Evil, and this broccoli is just
The start.
I've got to round up my team...
Oh, no, you don't.
I'm afraid we need you for
Another matter.
Run!
Hmm... You know, I could
Really go for a hamburger.
Ugh!
Who dares disturb the supreme
Leader of the kids next door?
Follow my lead.
Hey!
Is that a new black-silhouette
Suit you have on, father?
Why, yes, it is.
It's a tad blacker than the last
One... More slimming, don't you
Think?
Oh, definitely.
And I see you got it at a good
Price.
I did. How did you know?
Well, there's a little thing
Dangling there.
Oh, that's probably just the
Price ta... Oh, no, you don't!
You're trying to get me to say
Tag and then touch you so I
Won't be leader anymore.
Well, I'm not falling for it,
Buddy boy.
I'm the leader of the kids next
Door, and I'm gonna stay leader
At least until I've harvested
Your miserable tree houses into
Enough broccoli to feed every
Kid in the world eight meals a
Day of the stuff.
You give it a sh*t.
But... I'm not a field
Operative.
You are now!
Oh, you'll eat it plain, and
You wo like it.
Hi, there, father, sir.
As a former kids next door
Supreme leader, I'd love to
Share some advice, maybe show
You where the secret
Supreme-leader bathroom is.
Why, that'd be swell.
- This is a really tough job, you - know.
Well, it definitely helps
During your first days as new
Leader to wear one of these.
What do you call these things?
What? A name ta... Nice try!
But I wasn't born yesterday, you
Know?
That's right.
Father is smarter than all of
You kids next door dummies put
Together.
Tell them how you tricked
Everyone into making you their
Supreme leader.
Well, it was simple, really.
When that dumb numbuh 2 kid
Opened the door, he reached out
And tagged me just like this.
Tag. You're it.
I don't want to be supreme
Leader again.
Tag. You're it.
We don't want to lead a bunch
Of everyday brats.
Tag. You're it.
[ All scream ]
Well...
Looks like I'm still your
Supreme leader.
Not so fast.
The game's still on, so that
Means we have until noon to make
You tag one of us.
You know, I never liked tag.
I always preferred...
Hide-and-seek.
[ Laughs evilly ]
Quick, after him!
[ Both scream ]
[ Laughs evilly ]
Hyah!
[ Both gasp ]
Wrong one, kids!
[ Evil laughter echoing ]
Split up!
Whoa!
Aah!
[ Gasps ] aah!
[ Both growl ]
Both: whoa!
[ Both exhale ]
I can't take much more of
This.
I'm way out of practice.
Well, this is the last room.
The real father has got to be
Somewhere behind this door.
Ready?
Yep.
[ Both gasp ]
[ Evil laughter ]
[ Both shout ]
That's it.
We've lost.
We'll never find him in there.
Not without this, you won't.
Not so fast, delightful
Deviants!
If you think we're gonna fall
For that, you're...
No!
- The code module shows the real - father is in the room just
Beyond this one.
But what if it's a trap?
Father said it himself.
Nobody likes broccoli, not even
Them.
So, you ready to do this,
Soldier?
- Think a desk officer like you - can keep up?
Try not to fall behind.
Maybe I should've put more
Mes out there.
What the...
You're too late, kids.
[ Laughs evilly ]
Well, that was nifty.
Only a... Minute left to tag
Father.
One... Way... Into... Room.
Rachel, no!
It's su1c1de!
Aah!
[ Gags, gulps ]
[ Gagging, munching ]
Oh, at least put some cheese
On it!
Almost... There.
Hey, how'd you get in here?
What... No!
Get off me!
Help!
No!
Tag me... Now!
Don't make me eat broccoli...
Please!
Tag me!
No!
Here!
Tag. You're it.
Now, get that cursed vegetable
Away from me!
Daddy, don't make me eat the
Yucky broccoli!
Please, daddy!
We've got to stop father!
Relax.
- We removed his and the - delightful children's boogers
- From the code module a few days - ago.
They're gone, and the tree
Houses are back to normal.
How long have I been out?
About a week.
What you did back there was very
Brave, supreme leader, sir.
You know, being out there and
Fighting again was pretty sweet.
But how do you guys do it every
Day?
Well, we eat a lot of nachos,
I guess.
Mostly you just get used to it.
Maybe being supreme leader
Isn't as bad a job as I thought.
So, you think you're ready to
Get back to work?
Yeah, I think so.
Great!
Kids next door rule!
Number 362, sir!
Kids next door r... Ow!
[ All gasping ]
Little help, number 362?
[ Growls ]
As kids next door supreme
Leader, I hereby order you to...
Go long!
[ Cheers and applause ]
[ Laughing ]
You got to check this out.
My turn, my turn!
Can I see? Come on!
[ Laughs ]
Hey, come on, numbuh 3.
Let me see.
[ Laughs ] oh!
All right, what's so funny?
Give me those.
Oh, come on.
I told you guys two days ago to
Tell numbuh 4 the game was over.
05x12 - Operation L.I.C.O.R.I.C.E./Operation H.O.M.E.
Watch/Buy Amazon Merchandise
Show revolves around a group of five 10-year-old kids (later retconned to be varying ages), using codenames Numbuhs 1 through 5, who are the main home operatives of what is known as Sector V, which is part of a worldwide espionage-style organization called the Kids Next Door.
