[ Grunting ]

Oh, is penny coming over?

No. Aran.

-What?
-Aran.

What?

Alan.

Oh, because you feel bad

For constantly being angry
at him for no valid reason,

Like when we did
secret santa.

Come on.
It wasn't that bad.

♪ The best day of the year

Gosh darn it, man!

-You don't like it?
-I love it!

It's thoughtful, expensive,

And it makes my present look
like something a rat would barf!

It was a pair
of fingerless gloves

Because you don't have fingers.

But I just realized you don't
have hands, either!

And, yes, that makes me feel
even worse!

Nah, it really
wasn't that bad.

Dude, when he apologized
for making you feel bad,

You roundhouse kicked him.

And when he kindly said
not to worry about it

Because his father
is a surgeon

So he wouldn't get a scar,
you just --

[ Screaming ]

Fine, it was quite bad.

But I'm not angry at him,
I'm angry at myself.

Okay, I'm also kind of
angry at him

For making feel bad
about myself.

Either way,
I'm gonna stuff

This perfect meal
into his perfect face!

You know, as an apology.

[ Telephone rings ]

Hello?

Oh, okay, no problem.

♪ Alan's not coming
'cause his mother was sick ♪

♪ I really shouldn't dance

'Cause it's sounded
quite serious.

Maybe alan's not coming

Because he's having
too much fun somewhere else.

No, as I said, his mom is sick
and alan's not --

"Ready for
an awesome day out."

Oh, that could have
been taken weeks ago.

Uuuugh!

Gah!

You don't even like the guy.
Why do you care?

Because he lied about his mom
to get out of our dinner!

He's a traitor!
[ Chimes ]

"At joyful burger"?!
[ Gasps ]

Are you thinking
what I'm thinking?

That you're gonna
catch him red-handed.

I was thinking lunch,
but that's a much better idea!

Oh, we're too late.
The suspects fled.

But where to?

Excuse me, larry.

Have you seen a round guy
that's blue?

He's this high
or sometimes this high.

Or this high.

Eh, kind of depends
on the temperature.

Mm-mn.

[ Gasps ]
evidence!

Get away
from my crime scene!

Hmm.

You can tell
from this splatter of ketchup

That these fries
were eaten in a hurry.

But what's this?

[ Gasps ] what?

Enhance image.

Enhance image!

[ Sighs ]

So, what is it?

Let's just say
it's not ranch dressing.

Looks like
the feelings of guilt

Got too much
for alan's weak stomach.

All: ew!

So he went for the light
salad dressing instead.

Oh.

You seriously thought
I would --

What?! Gross!

Okay, so where did they go
in such a hurry?

Freeze!

Enhance image.

Zoom in on the eye.

[ Gasps ]
look, in the reflection.

They're going into
the movie theater!

How did you guess?

Dude,
I was looking at them.

Oh.

Ha.
Looks like this balloon...

Um, this bubble...

This, um...

This balloon's bubble is...

Going...

To burst.

[ Groans ]
uh, nearly there.

Something hot air.

Full of air!

Looks like
this balloon's cover is blown.

[ Sighs ]

♪ Yeah

[ Slurps ]

And then he says,
"please forgive me!"

And I say, "I'm sorry,
forgiveness isn't on the menu.

But the chef recommends
the sweet vengeance!"

And that's when you throw
the maple syrup.

And then I say, "don't worry,
the topping is much lighter."

And then you throw
the feathers.

Isn't that a little
over-the-top?

I didn't spend an hour plucking
chickens for you to wuss out.

[ Sighs ]

[ Dramatic music plays ]

Man: it's coming back!
woman: i'm stuck!

it's right behind us!

Get ready for justice,

You lying, bloated, empty,
knotted rubber sack of gas.

[ Grunts ]
child: mama!

Oh, wait, what?!

Woman: my child!

Darwin,
do something!

[ Child screams ]

[ Audience gasps ]

Okay, guys,
when I explain everything,

You'll realize that I am
the true victim here, okay?

Wait, wait, no!
I'll do it myself!

Thanks.

Maybe we should
just give up.
Are you kidding?

He's manipulated
and tricked us

With no respect
for our feelings.

All this to settle a score
with me because he's jealous

Of someone else being so
comfortable in their own skin.

That doesn't sound like alan.
It sounds like you.

There they are!

Quick,
give me a quarter!
Why?

If I can pierce
their gas t*nk,

It will leave a trail
that will lead right to them.

All I have to do
is throw the coin

So it bounces off
the lamp post,

Then deflects off the ground
and into the t*nk --

Oh, they've just stopped
at the park.

Oh, no,
they've already left.

Hmm.

So where did they go?
I don't know.

Those guys float,
the don't leave tracks.

Then what was that
all about?

Eh, it's just
a bit of bread.

So they must have come here
to feed the ducks.

So all we have to do
is interrogate the ducks

To know
where alan went next.

You can speak animal.

[ Ducks quacking ]
mm-hmm.

Hmm.

So, what are they
saying?

Bread, bread, bread.
Bread, bread, bread, bread.

Bread, bread, bread.
[ Duck quacks ]

Wait, hold on.
[ Quacks ]

No, he said,
"bread."

[ Dog barking ]

[ Growls ]

[ Grunts ]
what?!

Uh, hey, I don't know,
I just expected you to --

[ Elevator dings ]

Oof!

Nooo!!

We've lost them!

Wait, the stairs!

Oh, yeah.

[ Boom ]
you got busted!

[ Boom ]
you got busted!

You bot gusted!

Oh, dagnabbit,
I messed it up.

What?
Everyone thinks
you're so perfect,

So I invited you over to make up
for the way I treated you,

But to avoid
hanging out with me,

You lied about
your mother being iiiill.

But my mom is ill.

Or maybe
she's just exhausted

From all the fun
she's been having today.

Stop pretending!

[ Pop ]
hey!

That was
my uncle phil!

Alan, what's really
going on here?

The reason we're here is
because my mom is having

A flatulum transplant
today.

What's that?

The flatulum is an organ
only balloons possess.

We each have two.

They regulate the air flow
through our balloon knots.

She couldn't find
a compatible donor,

So I decided to give her
one of mine.

[ Both inhale sharply ]

She's scared of the hospital,
so my dad and I wanted

To give her the best day
possible before her operation.

We took her
to joyful burger

Because that's where
she met my dad.

[ Both inhale sharply ]

Then we took her
to the cinema,

Because she used to dream
of being an actress

Before she decided
to devote her life to charity.

Then we took her
to the park,

Because that's where she used to
take me as a child.

[ Chuckles softly ]
happier times.

I'm sorry I bailed on our meal,
gumball, but she needed me.

What are you doing?

We're digging a hole
so we can wallow on our shame.

Before you do,
can I ask for some help?

Both: yes! Anything!

You see,
my dad's a surgeon

And was due
to perform the operation,

But you knocked him out when you
burst through that door.

[ Moans ]

It would be
really helpful if --

Say no more,
my friend!

We'll perform the operation,
and we'll save your mother!

No, I meant, you could just
go down the corridor

And find another surgeon
that would --

[ Muffled talking ]
seriously!

There's medically qualified
professionals all ov --

Both: shh!

It's okay.

We've got this.

Aah!!

[ Chuckles ]
sorry, uncle phil.

[ Exhales deeply ]
okay...flatulum transplant.

Any ideas?

Try this --
"elmore biology."

Ah, balloons.

There!
Flatulum transplant.

Okay.
Ohh, not okay.

Look to your left.
There should be a gland.

Mm, no.

Okay...
Look to your right.

Nnnope.
What can you see?

Nothing.
This guy's full of air.

Let me look.

[ Creak ]

[ Echoing ]
oh, you're right.

All his organs
are made of air.

Just grab anything,

It will probably be
the flatulum.

[ Creaking ]

[ Pong! ]

[ Heart b*ating ]
uhhhhh...no.

[ Pong, creaking! ]

It's all invisible!

How are we supposed to
do this opera--

[ Pong, deflating! ]

Aah! He's gushing air
everywhere!

[ Both screaming ]

[ Monitor flatlining ]

Here,
grab the flatulum!

Done!

[ Splat! ]
Aah!

Quick!
We're losing him!

Give him c.p.r.!

[ Farting noises! ]

It's not working!

Then try
something else!

What's going on here?!

I think the anesthetic's
worn off.

How can you tell?

My insides are pouring out!!

What do we do?!
What do we do?!

Aah!!

Aah!!

[ Pong!, Screaming stops ]

Okay, now look
for his flatulum.

[ Squish! ]
Aah! Found it.

Then scrap it off your shoe
and prepare for surgery!



[ Monitor beeping ]

Scalpel.

Forceps.

Mayonnaise.

There you go.

[ Chomp! ]
Mmm!
That's really good.

Uh, wha--
what are you doing?

Having lunch. The operation was
a complete success.

Dude, weren't you
wearing a watch?

Guys, please --
how is my mom?

Ask her yourself.

[ Gasps ]

Mom!

Thank you, gumball,
for saving my mother.

Eh.

[ Farting ]
yes, thank you.

What the?! Is she talking
out of her backside now?

Oh, nothing's ever
good enough for you,

Is it, mr. Perfect?!

Since when did you have
a surgeon's license?!

Oh, but please,
judge away.

Looking down
from your high horse,

Making everyone
feel like --



[ Laughter ]

[ Students gasp ]

It's lunchtime.

That's not
what I asked for.

[ Sighs ]

[ Chomp! ]
[ Groans ]

Not in the mood
for banana.

Potato, please, can have.

Ugh.

[ Gasps ]

Aah!

[ Smack! Clang! ]

Oh, sorry.

You don't like the crusts,
do you?

Aah!

Not in the mood
for sandwich.

You eat it.

[ Gagging ]

[ Slurping ]

Mmm. Perfect!

Try some.
Move.

My lunch.
Here, carmen.

You can have mine.
Wait.

Are you sharing with her?

Of course.

There's
no greater happiness

Than sharing
with your sweetheart.

I don't get it.

Then maybe it's not just
your stomach that's empty.

Are you saying
I've got an empty head?!

[ High-pitched voice ] no!
I meant your heart! Your heart!

What do you mean,
my heart?

[ Muffled speaking ]

[ Panting ]

I mean,
maybe you'd feel better

If you found someone
to share things with.

[ Breathes deeply ]

Well played.
You made her think.

That buys us some time
to escape.

[ Gasps ]

That was way more time
than we needed.

I need a sweetheart.

[ Screaming ]

[ Fire crackling ]

Gumball:
dude, what were you thinking?

Why didn't you just run?

I thought she said,
"I need to sweat hard."

Like at the gym
or something.

But why did you say nothing
when she asked you out?

Because, when a gorilla
charges you,

You stay still
and say nothing.

I saw it on tv.

Dude, she's not a gorilla.

What is she, then?

She's your new girlfriend.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

You get that "dun-dun-da!"
It's usually not a good sign.

[ Sighs ]
it's okay.

I'll just ride out the storm
and say nothing.

[ School bell rings ]
gumball:
trust me, man --

You need to rub yourself
with garlic.

She's not a vampire.

Yeah, but it would still keep
most people away.

Uhh!
Okay, rule one --

If you ignore me
or break up with me,

There will be
serious consequences

Involving you, me, a spoon,
and a saltshaker.

[ Shudders ]

Oh, by the way, I got you
a present to celebrate our love.

[ Thunk! ]

My present to you
is a present for me.

I've given you
the gift of giving.

Now hand it over!

Perfume?!

[ Grunts ]
are you saying I smell bad?!

Gosh darn it!

[ Grunting ]

[ Breathing heavily ]

Sorry, honey.

Lost my temper there
for a second.

See you at lunch.

[ Smooches, blows ]

Aah!

[ Creak! ]

Ugh.

[ Rings ]

[ Sighs ]

Want to share gumball's lunch
with me, sweetheart?

Hey, jamie, if a coconut
has both hair and milk,

Why isn't it classified
as a mammal?

Uh...

So, darwin, why don't we get
some more food in the basement?

Clip-clop! Clip-clop!
Clip-clop! Clip-clop!

[ Whoosh! ]

Were you just gonna sit
in silence up there?

Why aren't you
saying anything?
Simple.

Her problem is that
she doesn't understand love.

So the best thing to do
is to wait quietly

Until she works it out
for herself.

But, dude,
you're encouraging her.

Could you at least
look less adorable?

Something more like this.

[ Grunts ]
[ sighs ]

You know
I can only look adorable.

It's my curse.

[ Grunts ] see?

Nipples!
What?

A coconut has milk,
but it doesn't have nipples,

Which means
it's not a mammal.

It's a hairy milk carton
from a tree.

Wow.

Could we get
some privacy?

We're having
a romantic meal here.

Yeah, I know.
It's mine.

Look, if you don't
get out of here,

There will be
serious consequences

Involving you, me, an electric
fan, and a pair of dice.

You...dice.
[ Shudders ]

[ Squeak! ]



[ Breathing heavily ]

To think we've only
been together for a day.

It takes some couples years

To have the kind of long,
comfortable silences

We have when we're alone.

Gumball: you re not alone.

And this isn't
exactly comfortable.

What did I tell you?!
[ Sighs ]

Benches don't talk.

Hey, guys.

So, how long
has this been going on?
What?

No one asked for your opinion,
you frozen freak!

Do you know what happens
when you mess with my man?

I think
you might be overreacting.

I'll show you overreacting!

[ Howling ]

[ Screeching ]

[ Farts ]
eww!

[ Gags ]
who does that?!

[ Screeching ]
[ screaming ]

Darwin: that looks
pretty gorilla-ish to me.

Gumball:
dude, she's your girlfriend.

Do something!

Look, if you don't want
to talk,

How about you
just use body language?

It's easy.

I...don't...

Love...you!

I respect you as a person

And hope we can be friends
in the future.

Goodbye! Goodbye!
Goodbye!

Uh --

Uh, you got
a bit of yellow on you.

No, on your hand.

Right.

I'll just, um, g-go scrape sarah
off that, uh, general area

And take her
to the infirmary.

[ Whimpers ]

[ Grunts ]

[ cr*ck! cr*ck! cr*ck! cr*ck! ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Exhales deeply ]

[ Grunts ]

Now I can see why you guys
don't want to go to gym class.

You should see what she does
with a lacrosse stick.

Wait, what are
you doing here?

You forgot
your gym-dodging kit.

Thanks. The less interaction
with her, the better.

Who is she?
Your future daughter-in-law.

Really?!

Darwin!

M-m-m-me!
Whoo-hoo!

[ Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! ]

♪ Ha ha

Ay-yi-yi!

[ Smooches ]
whirr.

[ Puckers ]

[ Pants ] ah!

[ Smacks lips ]
aah! Aah!

Are you done?
Almost.

Blar! [ Trills ]

[ Grunts ]
kee-coo-coo-kah!

[ Whistles ]

[ Slurps ]
I need to introduce myself.

Hello, young lady.
I'm darwin's father.

Listen,
I just wanted to say --

No, ylisten to me,
mister.

I don't care that you
disapprove of our love!

You can't stop us
from seeing each other!

What?
[ Mockingly ]
"what?" "What?"

You find this
hard to swallow?

Then I have plenty more
where that came from.

[ Whimpering ]

[ Glass shatters,
engine turns over ]

How could you let that
happen to your own father

And say nothing?

I mean,
if she were a food,

There would be a label on her
saying, "contains nut."

If she were an animal,
she'd be a "cra-fish"!

If she were a bird, her song
would go, "cuckoo! Cuckoo!"

[ Grumbling ]

There's a message in there
for you about your dad.

Gumball: "sor-ree."

Has she gone?
Uh-huh.

And if her spelling
were better,

She could have spared
one of you.

Whoa. She even left a kiss
next to it.

Who kisses like that?

It's like
a rap-star snarl.

Mwah!

Dude, for the sake
of everyone's safety,

Can you please talk to her
and put an end to this?

Mnh-mnh.

Gumball: please!
Darwin: no.

Please! Please!
No. No.

Please! Please!
No. No.

Please! Please!
No. No.

No.
Please.

[ Sighs ] bummer.
Usually works on tv.

Jamie: darwin! Why aren't
you sitting next to me?

He is next to you.

But he's also next
to you.

So?
So...

I'm tired of having
to share my boyfriend

With his other boyfriend.

Wait, there's a big difference
between a boyfriend

And a friend who's a boy,
you know.

Not to me.

Darwin, do you realize
how this makes me feel?

[ Mumbles ]
then I'll show you.

Gumball, from now on,
you're my boyfriend, too.

[ Recessional plays ]

You may now
kiss the brides.

You already have a job!

Your job
is to look after the kids!

[ Tires screech, babies crying ]

Do you, uh,
notice anything different?

[ Burps, blows ]

You look older.

[ Panting ]

Don't say anything.

She has to work it out
for herself.

[ School bell rings ]
okay, I'll just run.

No!
Don't do anything either!

Just st--

Aah!

[ Panting ]
gumball!

Come back here!

[ Singsongy voice ]
I'll make it romantic for you.

Aah!

[ Normal voice ]
look. Candles.

Now give me your heart.

Aah! [ Gasping ]

Wait!
How about some music?

daisy, daisy

give me answer true

So cute.

[ Chuckles ]
[ whimpers ]

Come back!
I wrote you a poem!

Roses are red.
Violets are blue.

You are so cute,
I could just eat you.

Aah! Aah!

i can't afford a carriage

a carriage

I baked you a cake.

Aah! Aah!

It's delicious!

What is it?

Am I not pretty enough
for you?

[ Door slams ]

Aah!

Is this better?

[ Squeak! ]

Do you like my dress?

Is it the color?

Wait!
I got you a present!

[ Sobbing ] no!

Hello, boyfriend.

I hope you're ready
for your special present.

Somebody!
Darwi-i-i-n!

[ Whimpers ]

Here it comes!

What do you want
from me?!

Uh...

Aah!
I can't do this.

I can't force you
to be my boyfriend.

That's not how love works.

Okay,
so you're not gonna --

I'm not done yet!

If you want to be
in a relationship,

There has to be
a mutual bond of trust.

Okay, so --
there's more!

Love is
not something you take.

It's something you earn.

I'm done now!

Okay, okay!
Good!

I...only have
one question, though --

What were you gonna do
with the fan and the dice?
Nothing.

I know people imagine
way scarier stuff

Than anything
I could think of,

So I just chuck
any two words together.

You, me, a jug of gravy,
and an umbrella...

A flan
and a french horn...

A feather duster
and a pack of mini-pizzas.

Darwin: stop!

Stop! Jamie!

You don't understand!

Love is
not something you take.

It's something you earn.

You think I'm stupid?!

You think
I don't know what love is?!

Hyah!
[ Thud ]

You know, dude,
all you had to do

Was keep your mouth shut
and say nothing.
