[bunniefuu]

♪♪

- Come on, hurry up!
- Get in here, Booker!

Booker is still sleeping.

What's so major
you had to get me up

out of my nice warm
bed before sunup?

- Booker, it's mom's birthday tomorrow.
- Yeah.

I know that.

Now.

We're planning a
surprise party for her.

Oh, come on. You guys know
we can't get anything past mom.

Not a bad grade.
Not a hot pizza.

Not a cold pizza.
Not a breakfast pizza.

Do we have breakfast pizza?

No!

Sure, it won't be easy,

but we all love Raven enough
to try our best to fool her.

Yeah, exactly. I mean, she
goes above and beyond for us,

so let's go all-out for her.

I even ordered
her favorite cake.

I invited a bunch
of her friends.

I'm working on
the perfect theme.

- I'm going back to bed.
- Come on.

I hear her. I hear
her! Get in there.

Shh, shh, shh!

Okay, okay, okay!

Ooh-wee!

Hello, beautiful.

Ooh, that breath smells, honey.

You almost b*rned
off your eyelash.

Well, I don't know which
toothbrush is mine. I can't find it.

I guess I'll just,
uh, use Booker's.

Aah aah aah.

All the way in the back. All the
way in the back of the mouth.

Aah. And the tongue area.

Oh, oh yeah!

They can't get anything past me.

So y'all just not gonna

- We got nothing to say.
- All good.

- Just having cereal, that's all.
- Uh-huh.

I knew you were up to
something in that bathroom earlier.

You can't get anything past me.

And do you actually think I
would use Booker's toothbrush?

My mouth is a temple.

Yes.

You know how I
feel about secrets,

especially when
I'm not in on them.

So, is this about my
birthday tomorrow?

What? Your birthday?

Didn't you just
have one last year?

Around this same time?

Hello? Yes, this is she.

Thank you for the offer, but
I don't drive SCÜT anymore.

Yeah, no, no.

Diamond SCÜT?

On call?

Twenty-four hours?

Uh, no. No, I
can't. I can't really...

I'm sorry, how much does it pay?

Yes, yes, I can. Woo-hoo-hoo!

Happy birthday to me!

Oh, thank you.

Hey!

That was your cup, anyway.

Yes! With mom gone all day, we
can start to work on her surprise party.

Surprise party? Nice!

I freak her out every day.
This time, it'll be special.

Mom's gonna figure out
there's a surprise party.

And then there won't
be a surprise party.

I know our mother.

She fooled you with
your toothbrush, bruh.

You lose.

Well, uh, I didn't brush my
teeth this morning. So, you know.

You all lose.

Oh, come on.

- It's in my mouth.
- Disgusting!

Nope. If you want
to drive sunrise

town for a benefit concert,

you won't tell anyone.

Right, right.

Except for my best friend,
Chelsea. I tell her everything.

No one.

No one?

Okay. No one.

Won't tell anyone.

Okay, sunrays.

I'll see you again at sunrise.

All cleared for sunrise.

Okay.

So, where are we going?

Oh, whew.

I just finished Raven's
birthday present.

Oh, I can't wait to see
the look on her face

when she opens it.

An old quilt? What'd
she do to you?

It's a new quilt made
from old clothes.

Your and Nia's
baby clothes. Look.

Aw!

Baby clothes? I was
looking for these jeans.

Yeah, well, here they are.

Well, I made her
something very special, too.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

It's a collage using old photos.

Oh, I see. It's
Raven's profile. Look!

There I am, in her nose.

I made her this
macaroni bracelet.

What?

We had a lot of expired pasta.

Oh, aunt Chels, I have
a list of party supplies

we're gonna need to buy.

Oh, we don't need
to buy supplies. No.

Raven hides them all around
the house for emergencies.

- Emergencies?
- Mm-hmm.

- What, like party emergencies?
- Uh-huh. They're everywhere.

- Look around.
- Yeah.

"Happy birthday."

General, yet applicable.

Strobe lights? What?

Yeah, Raven calls it
her first aid party kit.

I call it, "Raven's
a big ol' pack rat

and can't throw anything
out to save her life."

But her name is catchier, so...

What up, fam?

Mini-mart. Got some party
hats, horns, and streamers.

Oh, great. This is everything
that we needed. Thank you, Tess.

Oh, they're not mine.
Ms. B. Hides stuff at my place

when she runs out of room here.

Guys, I keep telling you,
none of this is gonna work.

I can't believe this!

This... this...

Yo, I was wrong.

Now you're talkin'.

In my vision, mom was
standing on the roof,

and the lights were flashing.
She was totally shocked.

For the first time, we are
actually going to surprise mom.

Man. Who knew?

Us!

Dang, guess this party's
blowing up and going to the roof.

If we do that, I'm thinking
the theme should be,

a picnic under the stars."

- Yeah.
- Oof. I just gave myself chills.

Yeah. Oh. Put
this on. It's warm.

Very warm.

♪♪

All right. Let's do
this. Thank you.

Here we go.

Got it.

And, bam!

- Here we go.
- Hey, guys. Look what we got.

Wow. A photo of Raven and me.

Without faces. That's
not creepy. No, sir-ee.

Personally, I prefer
you with a face, Ms. G.

Aw, thanks, Tess.

I wanted a gift for
mom's party, too.

So with mine, guests can
create photo op memories.

- Yeah, let's show 'em.
- Alright.

Well, you can't get anything
past me. I'm the mama.

Oh.

Wow. Huh.

You got me there, Rae.

I wanna try! I wanna be Raven.

Levi, you be me. Be me!

This can't be healthy.

You gonna get it!

Get what? Was I
supposed to get something?

What did I forget, Rae?

Uh, nice try. What?

Shh! People, act
natural. Act natural. Shh!

Whoa!

I had the most amazing day ever!

Oh, how was work?
What are you...

What are you doing back so soon?

So soon?

- Yeah.
- Chels, I've been gone for hours.

Thanks for noticing.

Yeah, no... tell me
about it, you know.

Who were you, um, SCÜTing?

Oh, you won't believe...

The traffic in these streets!

- Uh...
- They are crazy! It was crazy.

So what'cha all been up to for the
last hours? What's going on here?

Homework.

Homework?

Did you just say... Homework?

Homework! Yep, yep. Homework.

We've been doing the, the math.

- Homework.
- Mm-hmm.

It is still summer, and
you are still Booker.

I told you not to keep secrets
from me. What's going on?

Uh, Ms. B.,

you never said why you had
the most amazing day ever.

No, I didn't, I said...

Ooh, look at that! I got a SCÜT
message! Gotta SCÜT. Bye!

Excuse me.

She was acting strange, right?

Very UN-Raven-ish.
I think she's onto us.

I don't know. I mean, she
might suspect a little something,

but she doesn't know we're
planning a huge party like this, right?

Yeah, but it would help if we
could throw her off track somehow.

Or next time, she'll
catch us for sure.

That's it!

Yes, Levi, we have to make
sure that she catches us.

That's not what I said,

but you seem
excited, so I'll go along.

Okay, so, we plan a
really small party, and...

let her catch us in the act.

And she'll think that
that's all we're up to.

Wow.

Look at you two. Twining it.

- Yeah.
- It's about time.

I spy icky stuff on my hot dog.

Oh, that's not a
hot dog, sunrise.

That's a Chicago dog.

Steamed. Piled high
with tomato wedges,

- pickle Spears, chopped onions...
- those sound like vegetables.

- Sunrise wants a plain one.
- Okay. Yes.

My, my kids wanted
a plain one, too, but...

When they took a bite and tasted
how delicious veggies could be,

they loved them.

And then they grew
up to be big and strong,

but if you want me
to wipe this off...

- No. Stop!
- Are you sure?

Because I can just wipe these
vitamin-enriched veggies off.

Wait! Can I have it back?

Sure.

- Crunchy goodness, huh?
- Mm-hmm.

I need ketchup.

Oh, no, sweet. No, no, no, no.

Now, you don't put ketchup on a
Chicago dog. You go to jail for that.

I want ketchup for my fries.

Oh. Those are cheese fries.

But it's late. Don't
you need to go to bed?

If sunrise wants ketchup,
sunrise gets ketchup.

You know, it sounds
different when you say it.

So I'm gonna go
get some ketchup.

♪♪

Ha! It's so small and pathetic.

Mom will think that we
did nothing special at all.

I know! It's perfect.

Hey, guys, where are all the
decorations and real presents?

We're hiding them back here
until the roof gets cleaned.

Oh!

The building manager's
taking care of it.

I helped him evict a guy
yesterday, so he owes me one.

All right, guys, now get over here
so we can get this party started.

- Okay.
- Shh!

Quiet, Nia, or
mother will hear you.

We don't want her to find
out about her surprise party.

Shh!

You're the one who's
gonna blow it, Booker.

Hey, guys!

I just came over to
hide behind the couch,

so that I can surprise Ms. B.

Ooh, we gon' get her so good!

Ha ha ha! Tee hee hee!

And she doesn't suspect a thing!

- Not a thing.
- Wrong!

I knew it! I knew
it! I knew it. I knew!

I knew that you guys were
planning a surprise party for me.

You're too good.

You can't get anything past me!

That's true.

And I have to admit, even
though I do not like surprises,

it does feel good to know that
you guys tried to outsmart me.

But you didn't!

No. You're always
worth trying to dupe.

- Come on, Ms. B.
- Make a wish.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Hold that flame.

W-W-Wait. You're not even
gonna blow out your candle?

- Yeah, what's the big rush?
- I wish you'd tell me what's going on.

I wish you would stop
asking me questions.

What?

Okay, something is
definitely going on. I...

I'm kind of worried about her.

Um, I'm worried about
why my shoes are wet.

- Where's the water coming from?
- I don't know!

The ice!

What? Levi, did you
put the ice in the cooler?

- What cooler?
- Nobody mentioned a cooler.

Well, I should have!

Oh, guys, the cake is soaked.

The presents are all wet.

Is everything for
the party ruined?

The karaoke machine survived.

You really should have
mentioned that cooler.

Caramel corn mixed
with cheese corn.

My mouth is so
confused. I love it!

- Catch it, Raven! Catch it!
- Okay.

- Yay!
- Yay!

You're way more fun than
all seven of my nannies.

Thursday nanny always
wants to take naps.

Well, I spy a little girl
with a lot of energy.

Hmm, that's me. Huh!

Good one, Raven. So, where
are you taking me today?

Well, it depends. Uh,
do you like the aquarium?

Aquarium?

Love it.

Aquarium is one of
my middle names.

Oh, okay. Well, how many
middle names do you have?

Two. But my fans guess
a new one every day.

Today's front
runner is "Jupiter."

This location is
compromised. Let's roll out.

Yeah. Let's all go catch sharks!

So, sunrise, I was thinking that

I would drop you and
Chuck off at the aquarium,

'cause I need to go spend time
with my family. Today's my birthday.

Your birthday? Then you
should absolutely celebrate.

Aw, thank you, sunrise.

At the aquarium!

Unless you don't want
to celebrate with me.

Of course I, I'd wanna
celebrate with you, sunrise.

And Chuck. At the aquarium.

On my birthday.

Hey, Nia. Nia, can
you turn that dryer off?

I can't concentrate on reshaping
the cake with all that noise.

Oh, you mean the cake that
looks like a giant poop emoji?

It does not look like a...

I'm not done.

Hey, guys. How's
it going in here?

Looks like poo.

Wow. That good, huh?

Well, aunt Chels,
how'd it go with you

and putting your
quilt in the dryer?

Great! Great, yeah, if I, uh,

wanted to present your mom
with a sentimental dishrag.

This isn't gonna work, you guys!

Raven's not answering her phone.

She's been sneaking
around... you guys.

She's probably
gonna surprise us!

Hello! She's
probably here already.

Shh! Keep your
voices down. Raven!

Raven! Raven! Come
out wherever you are!

Yeah, you guys, she's not here.

Aunt Chelsea,

in my vision, my mom was
the one that gets surprised.

Why can't we just
hang onto that?

We told everyone how
amazing this party would be.

Expectations are high, bruh.

Okay, so it won't
be what we planned,

you know, or what some
people are expecting.

Or what some people
might even describe as good.

But where's that
determination I saw

when we were all in
the bathroom together?

You were in the
bathroom together?

I'll explain later.

You know, Booker's right.

We can still surprise
her if we work together.

Thank you, Nia.

Now, I'm gonna go up to the roof

and get this party
started, okay?

All you guys have to
do is get mom there.

Can you do that?

- Yes, we can!
- Yes, y'all can!

- Yes, y'all can!
- Yes, y'all can!

Ooh.

- Yeah, we can.
