02x08 - Release the Demons!

[bunniefuu]

Hmm.

Hi! Looking great, boss.

Your fur's almost all grown back.

Mm.

Oh! Looks like someone
needs his calming tea

poured in his favorite cup!

Cup?

Hey, dummy! I still have my soul.

That's it!

I'm throwing everything I've got
at that cup.

Head!

Thank you, Henchman.

Now bring me my finest demons!

Huh?

Ha!

Uh…

Neigh.

What…

What are you wearing?

I made it. It's just like that horse head
that scared you when we were little.

What horse head?

The one from the hay maze, remember?

You froze in terror?

I have never frozen in terror!

Sure you did.

I remembered when I saw this flier.

This place is a widdle spooky!

Ah, I ain't too worried about it.

Cuphead? Cuphead!

Cuphead!

Never happened.

I ain't afraid of no hay maze horse head!

Come on. I'll prove it to ya.

I'll get my coat.

Ooh!

Now these are some world-class demons!

Ooh! This one has razor-sharp talons.

Oh, and this one has three heads!

Ah! And oh, hey, hey.

Look at the muscles on this guy.

So I assume you're all wondering
why I summoned you here today.

Let me tell you about this cup.

Head.

Thank you, Henchman.

Never before have I been subjected
to such criminal disrespect by a mortal.

First, he lost at Soul Ball,

but his dumb brother
grabbed his soul and stuffed it back in,

which is completely unethical
after I stole it fair and square.

And then they destroyed
the whole carnival!

Then he goes on Roll the Dice,
which is impossible to lose.

And wouldn't you know it? He couldn't name
"Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star."

I mean, who can't name
"Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star"?

Number one here. Fashionably late
and fashionably fashionable,

as per usu--

What did you do?

Bring me my second-finest demon!

This is gonna be good.

Uh-huh.

Tickets, please.

Ooh, real scary.

That horse mask is gonna
make you freeze in terror.

Then you'll have to admit you were afraid.

I mean who can't name
"Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star"? Hmm?

And then he had this… this… this sweater.

It was invisible
and impenetrable and dumb,

and I couldn't just take his soul out
and eat it

before his very eyes!

Third-finest!

These are my finest demons?

Uh, well, now, yeah.

A cyclops with an eye patch.

And how does that work exactly?

Ah.

It doesn't.

Ew! And what's this thing?

Is that all you do?

Mm-hmm.

Wow. You blew up the biggest one.

Great job.

I am so angry right now.

I want to obliterate all of you,

but I cannot even begin
to imagine the fourth-finest demons.

Uh, or as they're now known,
the second-finest.

Thank you, Henchman!

Look. He's no longer wearing
the protective sweater. So--

Which is in an undisclosed location.

Uh, "Thank you, Henchman."

Just bring him to me,
and I'll rip out his soul.

Bring him back, you live!

Fail and I destroy you!

Release the demons!

Big D, Big D.

It is a pleasure to watch you in action.

Nobody works a room like you.

Are you still here?

You mean number one's got to do it too?

Tickets, plea--

Okay.

Oh, so scary.

Lame.

-Ugh.

Oh, ho! Ladies.

I've been looking for you two.

You know, I was just thinking.

Get rid of bright boy over there,
and Cuphead's all ours.

Uh…

Ah…

Huh?

Ouch. You two are monsters.

Oh, I sure hope you never turn on me!

Yeah!

Oh brother.

Roar, roar.

This is the worst one yet.

-Burpy buddy!

Have I got plans for you.

Yawn.

Bullseye!

Oh.

Oh!

Where did they go?

-Wow, that was kinda cool.
-Yeah, they're adding new stuff.

Nice for the people
who come back every year.

-Ow!

Hey, that's real acid.

Neat!

Looks like it's just you and me, pal.

Ah…

Ah…

Gesundheit.

Yeah.

So, how are they doing?

Uh, not so good.

Dice is the only one left.

Then I have but one final recourse.

To unleash the Four Horsemen.

B-but boss,
they're untamed primordial beings.

They fear nothing!

To even lay eyes on them
is enough to make anyone freeze in terror!

Release them!

Ah jeez.

We're almost through the maze,
and I'm still not frozen in terror!

I don't know, Cuphead.

Anything can happen.

Heh! Oh, I think I know
exactly what's gonna happen.

What's gonna happen is

I'm gonna turn around,
and you're gonna be holding that stupid--

You're frozen in terror,
you're frozen in terror!

I told ya you were a little scaredy cup.

Hello!

What? Is there something behind me?

-This…
-Is…

The greatest hay maze of all time!

That feels better.

Horseman Number Two is right.

Our horses ran away.
That means we get the rest of the day off!

Oh hey! They got pumpkin pie!

I love pumpkin pie!
I love pumpkin pie!

Lame.

Honestly, Mugsy, when we was kids,

that horse mask
did make me freeze in terror.

But nothing scares me anymore.

Not even the Devil?

When was the last time
we even saw that guy?

I guess you could say
I ain't too worried about it.

You should give it a sh*t.
Feels pretty good.

"I'm not too worried about it"?

Hey! That does feel pretty good!

If you want something done right,
I guess you have to do it yourself.

-Excuse me!
-Stickler! What are you doing here?

I have recounted the souls 36 times
and have yet to locate--

Yes, yes, yes.
I didn't get the cup's soul yet,

but I am literally just about to--

Furthermore, the bylaws of Subsection 7,
Paragraph 7 through 37,

specifically signifies

if you have failed to collect
a soul within a 30-day period,

the soul reverts to its original owner.

And it has been precisely 31 days,

therefore your pursuit
of said soul is unauthorized.

Stickler, Stickler, Stickler.

I am going to get that soul
one way or another.

Pity you won't be around to see it.

What?! You're wearing the--

Impenetrable, invisible sweater.

I, myself, am the undisclosed location.

Take it off this instant
so I can obliterate you!

I do not believe
that would be in my best interest.

I will eat your soul!

Not possible
because of this impenetrable--

Sweater!

Oh, forget it.

Hello?

Eh.

On the bright side,
at least this day can't get any worse.

No! No, no, no, no, no!

It's stuck.

Looks like we'll be
here for some time.
