01x06 - BoomBox Burger Bop

[bunniefuu]

[upbeat hip-hop music plays]

This is so exciting!

I can't wait to hear your parents sing.

Your mom has an amazing voice.

And I've heard your dad hit that high C.

It was when he saw a spider,
but he hit it.

Yeah, they haven't performed
the BoomBox Burger jingle

since they wrote it ten years ago.

Yup. I was just an adorable
teensy-weensy baby.

Now you're just an adorable
teensy-weensy pain in my butt.

-Hey, Jeremy.
-Hey. What's up, guys?

Where are you going?
My parents are about to perform.

Yeah, I know.

I'll catch up with you guys
as soon as I finish my lunch.

Hey, what's up
with all the ketchup packets?

I'll sell you one for a quarter.

Or I could get one inside for free.

Dang it!

You're such a good businessman.

What can I say?
Opportunity just has a way of finding me.

Hashtag "don't sleep on crypto."

Hashtag "I won't
since I don't know what it is."

Wow.

I haven't seen BoomBox Burger this packed

since Woody left the door open
accidentally overnight.

It was packed with pigeons,
but still, it was packed.

You guys look great.
Can't wait to hear you sing.

Can't wait to perform
for all the people I love.

And these random strangers.

Who would've thought a tenth anniversary
would bring out half of Cleveland?

[both laugh]

Ten years later, and our
BoomBox bop… still bangin'.

In the phone where I'm from,

anniversaries are called updates.

Technically, I'm . versions old,

but I don't feel a day over . .

Whoa.

It's a member of the Alexander family

and her tiny bodyguard.

I'm no bodyguard.

If something breaks out,
we all in trouble.

Right this way, ladies.

VIP couch awaits you.

Wow. We get a VIP couch?

I love VIP couch!

Why did we get a VIP couch?

I guess it's because my parents
are performing their jingle today.

Sadie's VIP at a hamburger joint?

I'm not surprised.

What are you doing here, Graydon?

I thought you were getting
a personality transplant.

Ha! Personality transplant.

That's a good one.

Oh, look.

I've never seen a ventriloquist doll
walk on its own before.

Do I need to take these earrings off?

Because I stay ready.

Uh-uh.

I do not condone v*olence,

but I'd put five on Short Stack here.

Graydon, let's continue this conversation

in the VIP section.

[gasps] Oh, wait, you're not VIP.

Buh-bye.

See you at school, Bow Tie.

Hopefully not.

Hunky beefcake doing manual labor
coming through.

Ah! Freeze, Lugnut!

I swear I'm not smuggling
any fish sticks in my socks.

Yeah, I know. I'd smell it.

Look, I lost my gold watch

when I was cleaning out the grease bucket
under the grill.

Have you seen it?

Uh-oh.

I emptied the grease bucket
into the vat in the alley.

What? [groans]

There's six months
of disgusting grease in that thing.

Sounds like your man-jewelry
is gone forever.

You hear that, Jeremy? An opportunity.

Actually, all I heard was "fish sticks."
[chuckles]

Watch. Learn.

And put those down.

Woody, my associate and I

run a business finding
gold watches in grease vats.

Yeah, it's called

Finding Gold Watches in Grease Vats
and Associates.

If you can find my gold watch,
I'll give you bucks.

Deal!

Whoa! You have to negotiate.

Deal!

I don't wanna say this is horrible,

But you'll know I'm thinking it.

I think she means
it may be slightly outdated.

These two are right, Woody.

That song is like my fifth husband--

it's gotta go.

Woody, why don't you let me see

It's messed up that Woody
is gonna have Graydon

replace my parents' theme song.

Yeah, if BoomBox Burger is gonna have
a new terrible theme song,

your parents should be
the ones to write it.

That's not as supportive
as you think it is.

Besides, it's kind of our fault.

We told Woody it was outdated.

Actually, I was smart enough
to not say it was horrible.

You said it was outdated,
so this is / you.

They're professionals.

They're probably
on to their next gig already.

[both sobbing]

Oh, no.

Are you guys watching--

[both] Dreamgirls.

This is serious.

Eighty/twenty you.

We put on a brave face at BoomBox Burger

when Woody retired our song.

Yeah, but it's clear.

Our music is too old, too stale.

Just like us.

Wait, you think I'm old?

No. I'm just--

I thought we were on the same page here.

Just give me the chocolate!

Okay.

Okay, can we just talk
about how to stop your song

from being replaced by Graydon Waydon?

I don't understand.

I mean, Woody used to love that song.

I wonder what changed his mind.

[forced laughter]

Oh, let's not worry
about what changed his mind.

His mind is changed,
and we can't change that, right?

[chuckles]

Sadie, you're doing that thing

where you say the same sentence
three different ways.

That means you're hiding something.

No, it doesn't. It does not.
It certainly don't not does.

Just tell her what you did.

Me? It was us.

We said the song was played out.

[both gasp]

That means you…

you both threw under the bus?

No, it does not. It doesn't.
It certainly don't not does!

Even our family thinks we're old.

No wonder Woody asked Graydon
to write a new theme song.

We're done.

Oh, speaking of done, could you get us
some more ice cream from the freezer?

We'd get it ourselves,
but we're old and stale.

Now you're old and stale?

-What did you just call me?
-We'll get it.

You know what this means, right?

Your parents are gonna eat ice cream

until they slip into a sugar coma,
lose their jobs,

and we end up living in this house
with no heat or electricity,

and we'll have to raise Marky on our own.

[hyperventilating]

What?

No, no, no.

It means we're going to have
to write a jingle ourselves

so Graydon isn't the one
to replace my parents' theme song.

Oh. Lay Lay, I'm over here.

Oh. Sadie, I think it worked!

You got an idea for a song?

No.

It worked at making me dizzy.

It's been two hours,
and I haven't come up with a single lyric.

You've got rapper's block, right?

[laughs] That's funny.

That's a serious condition, Sadie.

It's nothing to joke about.

Is that music?

Or did you hit record
and drop your phone in the toilet?

That's gross.

I held it above the toilet.

That's the new thing.

You mix random sounds with modern beats.

No.

If we're gonna convince Woody
to use our song

instead of Graydon's song,

we have to create something
that makes people wanna move.

But it still has to have
that retro BoomBox feel.

Oh, this trip to Rhythm Nation
doesn't make people wanna move?

Sadie, that's toilet music.

Oh, man.

Woody just posted that Graydon is supposed

to be showcasing his new
BoomBox Burger theme song.

Well, looks like BoomBox Burger
is gonna be filled

with Graydon's burger bops
and our teardrops.

Dang, that's the best rhyme
I done wrote all day.

There's only one thing to do now.

You were right about this movie.

Nothing goes with self-pity
quite like Dreamgirls.

The donkey from Shrek is great in this.

Rotate.

Oh, no.

You're all watching Dreamgirls?

Why are you in my wet suit, Marky?

Because bucks is waiting for me

at the bottom of a grease vat.

You're going through all this
for bucks?

Yeah.

It was supposed to be a simple job
that got difficult.

But you know us Alexanders.
We don't give up.

You know what?

Scuba boy has a point.

-We can't just give up.
-You're right.

We need to finish…

this ice cream.

No.

We need to talk
about holding on to your legacy

and that "never give up"
Alexander attitude that Marky has.

You got all that from him
frog-walking out of the house?

I got all that from you.

Because in this house,

we don't quit, no matter
how difficult the task may be.

Or how high the chips are stacked.

Or how janky the song
your parents wrote sounds.

Excuse me?

She's right, Bryce. We can do this.
