02x05 - Sweet Temptation

[bunniefuu]

Mugsy, I'm sorry I dropped
that lit firecracker down your pants.

In my defense,
I thought you'd think it was funny.

Yeah, hilarious.

Ouch.

After all this trauma,
I think I deserve a little treat.

Ooh! A treat?

Yeah. A treat for me.
Now turn around and don't look.

Well, go ahead and turn around.

-Why?
-Just do it!

Wait a minute,
you still have Halloween candy?

I said don't look!

It's September! How could you possibly
not eat your candy for that long?

-It's called self-control.
-Never heard of it.

It's for people
who don't give in to every temptation.

You ought to try it sometime.

Mm. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

Mm!

Mm-mm-mm!

Cuphead!

Huh?

You ate my candy?!

-I'll make it up to you! I'll do anything!
-Anything?

Anything!

Get out!

And don't come back
until you learn some self-control!

Stupid self-control and not having any…

So beautiful.

What is this place?

Didn't you hear the song?

It's Sugarland.

My name is Baroness Von Bon Bon,

and today is your lucky day.

You get to eat
all the sweet treats you desire.

And goodbye.

Wait, where are you going?

I offered you
all the sweet treats you desire.

Ain't you gonna eat my sweets?

I don't think so, lady.

I've read the fairy tales.

I eat your candy, I end up in an oven.

You just wanna eat me.

This is funny. You're a funny, funny guy.

I'm a baroness.

I only eat sweet treats.

Oh! Well, in that case,
I'm sorry I misjudged you, The Baroness.

Oh please. We're friends now.

Call me The.

Now, I gotta say, I admire
how you resisted my very tempting offer.

Most disgusting children
just can't resist.

You got a real creepy way about you, lady.

I don't get out much.

In fact, I can't leave Sugarland
on account of an ancient curse.

But that's a story for another time.

Why would anyone want to leave this place?

Exactly.

So long as you never break my two rules.

Rule number one!

Tell no one about Sugarland.

And rule number two!
Eat all the candy you desire,

just not my candy castle.

Not even a teensy-weensy bite.

Works for me.

There's so much tasty stuff here,
why would I want to eat your castle?

You wouldn't, unless you find it…

…irresistible.

It is a tasty-looking castle.

I'll just turn my back
in case you want to sneak a bite.

Maybe just a teensy-weensy bite.

Wait.

No teensy-weensy. I gotta go!

You'll be back.

Toodle-oo.

Hey, wait, I didn't eat any candy.

I did that self-control thing
Mugman was talking about.

He's gonna be so proud of me!

Hey, Mugsy, I didn't eat any candy.

The temptation was strong, but I--

Ooh!

You're still upset, huh?

Of course I'm still upset, and will be
until you replace what you stole!

I can replace it and then some.

See, I found this land
where everything's made of--

Rule number one!

Tell no one about Sugarland.

-What?

Made of what?

Uh…

The Baroness did say not to tell you.

But we tell each other everything,
and you owe me for the candy.

Okay, fine.
If I told you there was a place

where everything's made of candy,
would you wanna go there?

Of course I'd want to.

Wait, who's the Baroness?

Hopefully, we'll avoid her.
She's a little creepy.

But we won't be avoiding her candy!

Wait, you expect me to believe
that there's a whole world made of…

Candy!

Now do you forgive me?

Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Oh, mama.

You took the words right out of my--

…mouth.

We should probably go
before the Baroness shows up.

After all, I broke rule number one.

And you're breaking
rule number two as we speak.

Mugman, no! Don't eat the castle!

It was only teensy-weensy.

Now you both broke a rule.

Naughty, naughty!

The Baroness!

Hmm. She doesn't seem so creepy.

Oh. Yeah, I see it now.

Let me guess,
you're gonna eat us after all?

Blech! For the last time,
I don't eat disgusting children.

Only sweet treats.

Cuphead, what happened to your straw?

My straw!

My arms!

Mugman, help me! Mugman?

Don't look at me.

I said, don't look at me!

Now you're delicious!

Hey, look!

It's the way out!

I got an idea!

Whoa!

-We're getting out of here!

Whoa!

Whoa!

We're gonna make it!
Come on, Mugsy! Mugsy?

Cuphead, leave me.

Save yourself.

Oh, okay.

Cuphead!

-All right, all right. I'm coming back.

I'm coming to get you, boys!

Quick, grab my hand!

I can't reach!

Almost there!

It's working!

Aw, nuts.

Aw, licorice sticks! They escaped?

They looked so tasty.

But they'll be back.

They always come back.

Whoa!

Ah! We sure showed her!

Except we're still candy.

Oh, right.

Eh, I ain't too worried about it.
Now that the Baroness is gone,

we don't have to worry about being eaten.

Just a teensy-weensy--

Elder Kettle, no!
