04x04 - The Pronunciation Cassette Tapes

Post by bunniefuu »

[dramatic theme music]



Well that was another great meal

at the best hedgehog-inspired
drive-in restaurant

on the m*therf*cking planet.
Sonic!

Even I, the grouchiest sh*t
of the bunch,

can't resist the oversized
Texas toast grilled cheese

and a limeade.

There's nothing sexier
than a chili dog

delivered on roller skates.

And we aren't even
being paid to say this.

Sonic just f*cking rules.
[dog barks]

Who's a good Benny dog?

Kevin! I thought
you were living in an apartment

by the Costco store.

Hey, Solars.

Yeah, I moved out
of Kirkland's Signature Village

because the wife
and I got back together.

Yeah, I thought I heard
some gentle humps

and wet slurps poppin'
from your bedroom window.

Oh, yeah, I've been
stirring p*ssy for weeks.

And it's all thanks
to Benedog Cumberwolf here.

[dog yips]

This creature has facilitated
your coitus?

He's a cockadoodle.

Half cocker spaniel,
half poodle,

specifically bred
to save marriages.

He can smell when I'm about
to disrespect my wife.

It works because
she's such a dumb bi...

[dog growls]
[yells]

Good boy.

You know how we've been
trying to find something

that will complete us as a family.

It's the theme of the season.

Perhaps we should get
a Costco pet like Kevin.

Isn't the Pupa a pet?

He's more toddler than pet.

Look, he's watching Saturday
morning cartoons right now

like a wee baby.

The Pupa's never licked my face,

which is something that
all good pets do to their owners.

If we get a pet,
it needs to lick my face.

Well, we can't get a dog.
They're narcs.

They work for the police.

Then we'll get the Bane
to the dog's Batman.

A cat.

Are you sure that's a good idea?

What about the whole Alf thing?

Don't aliens eat cats?

That's an offensive stereotype
perpetuated by Hollywood liberals.

The Solar Opposites
would never eat a cat.

Then let's go get
a pet cat right now.

It'll be a purr-manent part of the family.

[burps]

Goddammit, we are like Alf!

KORVO:
Planet Shlorp was a perfect utopia,

until the asteroid hit.

One hundred adults and their replicants
were issued a Pupa


and escaped into the... space,

searching for new homes
on uninhabited worlds.


We crashed on Earth,

stranding us on an already
overpopulated planet.


That's right, I've been talking
this whole time.


I'm the one holding the Pupa.

My name is Korvo.
This is my show.


Bollocks, I just dropped the Pupa.

Ugh. This is ridiculous.
I hate Earth.


It's a horrible home.

People are stupid and confusing.

Why do they dehydrate so easily?

Oh, you're in a bad mood

because you didn't drink
enough water?


Just sleep in a bowl of water,
you p*ssy.


[dramatic music]

f*ck.

I can't believe we ate cats
and a gerbil.

Yeah, they really upsell you
on the gerbils.

We need to think of pets
we won't be tempted to eat.

So obviously nothing with fur
or cat organs.

We need something that's not so cute
that we want to eat it

but is still sorta cute
and will lick our faces.

Getting face licked
is a real priority for me.

MAN [on TV]:
Dabba yabba yabba.

[groans, laughs]

Dabba yabba yabba indeed.

Jaxson, your word
to pronounce is A-L-U-M-I-N-U-M.

Can you use it in a sentence?

No, because then
I'd be pronouncing it.

Nice f*cking try.

Aluminork?

[buzzer sounds]

Jaxson, you idiot.

That was so wrong.

Jesse, get this right
and you're going to regionals.

Your word is W-A-T-E...

Watermelon!

No points for early guessing.

But that's correct.

[applause]

[Jaxson cries]

I want my mom.

Listen up, Opposites.

Regionals will be your
toughest competition yet.

You'll be up against
the winners from Philadelphia.

People from Philly famously have

the best pronunciation
in the country.

Take these.

Ooh.

Wait, are these cassette tapes?

I think I saw these in a museum once.

Don't they sound terrible?

Focus on the competition.

You'll do fine,

as long as your family
has your back.

And for your information,

music sounds better with the hiss
of a magnetic strip.

We will never b*at
the sound of a tape.

AISHA:
You want me to what?

For you to make us a deeno-saur.

[Italian accent]
We wanna make-a da deeno.

[Italian accent] Make-a da deeno
with a-spicy a-sauce.

ALL: Make-a da deeno,
make-a da deeno, make-a da deeno.

make-a da deeno, make-a da deeno
make-a da deeno!

AISHA: Shut up.

Why are y'all talking in those
janky Mario Brothers accents?


'Cause it's fun.

Heaven forbid
the Solar Opposites have

a pepperoni of fun for once.

AISHA: Look, I can't just make
a living creature.


But what if you use
the Quantum Injector?

- You're just making words up now.
- The thingy we used to make Funbucket.

Yeah, that sh*t's canon.

AISHA:
Ooh, I forgot about that.

So what kinda deeno-saur
you want?


A pinch of Hanna
and a dash of Barbera.

It has to lick my face,
no exceptions.

And it should be clever
and get our jokes.

And laugh when we laugh.

And it should know
where the camera is at all times

and give occasional sly winks to it.

AISHA: Stand back and let me do
my sh*t, you dummies.


[computer beeping]

[machine rumbling]

[steam hissing]

KORVO/YUMYULACK/TERRY:
Yay, deeno.

Deeno, deeno, deeno.

What the cheese and crackers
is going on here?

And who is that?

That's our new deeno.

You guys got a pet without asking me?

We assumed you'd, like,
fallen in a sewer or something

and were dealing with,
I don't know, sewer stuff.

I was competing
at the Pronunciation Bee,

which you guys said you'd come watch.

Lick Jesse's face.
Lick it, lick now.

[Deeno squawks]

Ugh. I don't have time for this.

I have to get ready for regionals.

Again, how many regions are there?
A thousand?

This deeno better not
interrupt my studying.

I'm sure the deeno will behave
in a completely different way

than the only way
we've seen him behave so far.

[snickering]

You see that sh*t?
Good boy.

Dandelion.

Chaperone.

Light saber.

Butt cheek.
[crashing]

[playful music]

Would you please keep it down?

We're doing madcap
race car driving with the deeno.

Look, we even have
our dastardly mustaches.

[tires screeching]

KORVO:
The deeno's getting away.

Follow him into that brand new tunnel.

[yells]

Hey.

[playful music continues]

Help.

How do I do the thumb thing?

Guys?
Guys, come on.

A little help.

Honestly, the string
doesn't help me study,

but it does look nice.

[laughter]

Oh, cheese nuts.
What is it now?

We're solving
a Scooby-Doo mystery.

That park ranger said
he knew the time,

but why would he say time

unless he's in the clock

that we've
never established before.

Boo!
[Korvo, Terry, Yumyulack, Deeno scream]

I suppose you're wondering
why I went through all this trouble.

Just get the f*ck outta here.

One, two.
A one, two, three, four.

[rock 'n' roll music]

♪ The Deeno and the Opposites ♪

♪ From prehistoric times

♪ Something something
outta this world ♪


Okay, okay. Stop, stop.

Just rocking from
the heart isn't working.

We need to write some lyrics.

No! Keep rocking.

[loud music playing]

[screams]

YUMYULACK: Deeno.
[laughing]

Your guys's band practice

ruined my study session
last night,

and now I really have to cram.

Where are my tapes?

KORVO: [singing]
♪ The Deeno and the Opposites ♪

You taped over my tapes?

We had to make a demo
if we want to get a record deal

for our Deenosaur band.

Yumyulack watched the bass player
from Fall Out Boy's master class.

These tapes were
the only way I had to starky,

I mean, uh, study.

Oh, no, I'm already mispronoons...

mispra...

mispro... mis...

Dammit!

Jesse, you need to chill out, sit down,

and have one of these breakfast burritos
the deeno made.

Though there aren't
any chairs open now.

The deeno's sitting
where you usually do.

Also, there's no more burritos.

He only made six for
the six members of the family.

LITTLE BUDDY:
Little buddy.

Guess who forgot about you!

Let's all resume laughing.

[all laughing]

Uh-oh, Jesse's mad.

Deeno, give her another face lick.

No!
[all laughing]

[dramatic music]

Hey, paleontologists,
you got a minute?

Oh, little girl, you must be lost.

The mummy exhibit is
in the other hall.

I'm actually looking for someone
to answer some deeno questions.

Really?

Kids usually don't care much
about dinosaurs these days.

They're all obsessed
with ancient Egypt.

"Can I TikTok this hieroglyph?"

"Can I WhatsApp this sarcophagi?"

Makes me sick.

Dinosaurs are so cool.

God, how I love these bones.

Now it's all about thirst trap selfies

with f*cking Imhotep.

What can we do for you?

Well, I'm actually from Hollywood.

We're working on a story

and need to know
how could someone get rid

of an annoying deenosaur
without anyone knowing?

Mm, you could always get
another dinosaur to eat it.

That's not gonna work.

Well, the only thing
that was strong enough

to k*ll the dinosaurs
other than bigger dinosaurs

was the asteroid
that destroyed their world.

[emphatically]
That is exactly what I require.

Damn, that girl can pronounce.

[dramatic music]

[sniffs]

[intriguing music]

(sniffing)

[squeals]

[noisy chewing]

Sayonara, you Jurassic f*ck.

[panting]

How have I let things get
so out of control

that I'm about to do a m*rder
on the deeno with an asteroid?

This isn't me.
I'm sorry, little guy.

The truth is, the only reason I tried
so hard with the Pronunciation Bee

is to make the family like me.

And it felt like
you were replacing me,

but you're just a friendly deeno pup.

[sighs] Enjoy your
cartoonishly large ribs.

[Jesse grunts]

Bad move, you stupid bitch.

Deeno, you can talk?

I've been able to talk this whole time,
and you were right.

I was trying to replace you
in the family.

Oh, crap.

When AISHA made me,

the Hanna was all
the sweet friendliness.

She never should've tainted it

with the malevolence of Barbera.

You've been faking being nice?

[laughs menacingly]

This plan's been
million years in the making.

Welcome to Earth, sh*t bag.

Sword time, m*therf*cker.

Terry, what are you doing?

I was coming to k*ll the deeno

because I thought he was
replacing me in the family.

What, no way, I did too.

- Die, die, die.
- JESSE: Korvo?

Now what are you doing here?

Uh, definitely not getting ready
to smash the deeno

with the holiday hammer
because I thought

he was replacing me in the family.

Hey, that's how I was feeling too.

We were all jealous
of the deeno, as a family.

That means we all love each other and...

[door opens, closes]
Pupa?

Are you bringing Deeno
a nice bowl of chili?

What the sh*t, Pupa?

You little traitor.

Would you grow
some self-doubt, Pupa?

Wait a second.

It's full of broken glass.

The Pupa was trying to k*ll
the deeno, too.

- [all cheer]
- There we go.

It doesn't matter, you stupid twats.

I'm sick of all your alien bullshit.

Earth belongs to earthlings.

Your whole species is extinct.

We made you with alien science.

Shut up.

This time, the asteroid's
gonna help the dinosaurs

by k*lling you

so Little Buddy and I can have
the house all to ourselves.

You and Little Buddy have teamed up?

Yeah, buddy.

That is so f*cked.

Jesse, pronounce this.

D-I-E.

- [dog yips]
- Hey, neighbors.

Sorry to walk in your backyard
in the middle of night.

But I was wondering...

[asteroid rumbling]
[yelps]

[expl*si*n booms]
[all scream]

- Good boy.
- JESSE: Run!

[dramatic music]

[tires screeching]



[maniacal laughter]

How does that g*n even work?

Where are all these
asteroids coming from?

I was sure we were dead
after that beam turned

our space station into cigarettes,

but luckily we had one thing
we needed to stay alive.

Hope.

[screams]

I can't believe
we all hated the deeno.

I really thought you guys loved him.

I assumed having a pet
would bring us together,

when what we really needed
was something we all hated.

When did you guys turn on the deeno?

I knew as soon as he popped
out of the machine.

I was just waiting for my sword
to come in from West Elm.

[asteroid crashes]

[Italian accent]
So how should we stop-a da deeno?

I've got it.

Everyone hang on to your Tuts.

KORVO What?

[engine revving]

[dramatic music]

Come out, come out,
little aliens.

My sight is based on movement,

and I wanna see you f*ckers dance.

[crashes]

[suspenseful music]



[pebble thuds]
[g*n fires]

- [all yelp]
- Oh, it's okay.

That's just part of the exhibit.

Well, this isn't.

You're trapped.

Come on, Jesse.

Little Buddy and I are
gonna turn your room

into a cigar lounge.

- No.
- What about our room?

That'll be our jerk-off zone.

I told you that space would make
a great jerk-off zone.

You say that about every room.

[g*n clicking]

Looks like you're
fresh out of asteroids.

Oh, no problem.
I'll just eat you.

Nice try, but you're a herbivore.

f*ck, I'm all smart.

Terry, we're plants.

Wait, we are?

[blowing note]

[scoffs] Is that supposed to scare me?

The only reason we're here

is because I remembered

who loves deeno bones
more than anything.

Who is that?
Show yourself.

[sniffs]

Oh. Mm, the girl is right.

We love dinosaur bones.

But they're always
so dry and fossilized.

You've got wet bones.

Paleontologists.
Stay back!

[Paleontologists hissing]

Wait, wait, stop.
I'm a living dinosaur.

Observe me.
Learn from my behaviors.

We... we can work together.

If we wanted to study living things,

we would've been zoologists.

[Deeno screams]
PALEONTOLOGIST : Wet bones. Wet bones.

- Wet bones.
- PALEONTOLOGIST : Bones!

[Deeno screams]
[blood splatters]

[crunching]

JESSE:
Everyone, be cool.

Don't do anything to piss them off.

We've got this.

Oh, an Egypt exhibit.

- [Paleontologists hiss]
- Run!

I'm so proud that you took first prize.

You pronounced
the hell out of that shiz.

[laughter]

There it goes.

Aw, thanks, guys.

I'm just glad we were all there together.

That's what family is for.

Now let us clutch each other
in a manner

that demonstrates affection.

Hey, you can't be part of the hug.

You teamed up with the deeno.

Little Buddy?

Don't pretend like it never happened.

We know exactly what to do with you.

AISHA, prepare the cryo pod.

We're launching Little Buddy
into space.

- AISHA: The cryo pod's gone, dummy.
- KORVO: f*cking what?

Remember, you used it
to sh**t that guy into space.


That whole crystal skull
vodka b*llet thing?


I, I think I remember
something about that.

Crap. Well, I guess
we'll just toss Little Buddy

down the garbage disposal.

What was that guy's name?
That we sh*t into space?

Who cares.
We'll never see him again.

[yells]

[grunts]

LITTLE BUDDY:
Little Buddy?

[adventurous music]



[camera clicks]

[dramatic music]

[thunder rumbling]

Looks like an incoming storm.
Time to clear out.

But what about the suspect?

What, the human?
It's been three days.

There's no way he survived
out there in the wild.

This case is closed.

[dramatic music]

Day three.

The last of the Silvercops
have left the planet.

I'm here all alone.

It's cold, I'm hungry,

and I'm already on my fourth pair
of leaf underwear.

I'm scared, and I miss you so much, baby.

I wish I was inside you right now.

I love you, Honda S .

I would do anything
to run my hands

over your faux leather interior

and listen to
the Fast and Furious soundtrack

while recklessly weaving
through rush hour traffic.

[stomach rumbles]

So hungry.

[gurgling]

If only I could reach the flying fish.

[thunderclap]

What the f*ck?

That looks like an evil cloud.

[screeches]

It is an evil cloud.

sh*t, sh*t, sh*t!

Oh, this is just like that part
in Hobbs and Shaw.

Wait, no, no.

Wait, which of
the Fast and Furious movies

was the one where they
were gonna unleash the gas?

Was that Fast Five?

[dramatic music]

The fruit.

[groans]

[panting]

[thunder rumbles]

[ominous music]



[lightning crackling]



[gurgling]

[soft music]



[gasps]

It worked.
This fruit saved my life.

Mm.

Plus it tastes like
a mango slush from Sonic.

Hey, thanks for the tip, little bro.

[farts]

[gags]

Space monkey sh*t.

[coughs]

Night four.

Or five or ten or I don't know.

Ever since those silver fucks
tried to frame me,

the only good thing
that's happened

is realizing I can eat the alien leech

I find attached to my scrotum
every morning.

Definitely weird my first instinct
was to eat this, but [gulps]

it's worked out.

[creature squeaking]

Oh, hey there, little fella.

Oh.

Nice to see some friendly faces for once.

Aren't you a bunch of little cuties.

Ow!

[screaming]

Just when I thought
it couldn't get any worse,

I'm now missing two toes,

and hiding in a gross alien tree.

This is my rock bottom.

This is my Fast Furious.

[creaking]

[squirting]

[yells]

[grunts]
[liquid splashes]

So that's what that feels like.

Doesn't get any worse than that.

[roars]

[yells]

Oh, sh*t!

[growls]

[intense music]

sh*t, sh*t, sh*t.

[yells]

[snapping]

[gasps]

[grunting]

[suspenseful music]

[door creaks]

f*ck me.

This thing's a tomb.

[sky shark snarls]
[gasps]

[sky shark growls]
f*ck you.

I can't do this anymore.

It's too f*cking much!

[cries]

My watch, my car.

I just wanna get it over with and die.

[crying]

Yo, bro. It's time to sack up.

Dom Toretto?

Glen, are you gonna die in here

crying like a little bitch

or you gonna go fight that creature?

There's nothing I can do.
That's a sky shark.

I'm a pathetic ground human.

Don't you remember what I learned
in Fast and Furious :

Race to Atlantis?

Familia, Glen.

Familia's inside you.

But also outside.

And sure,
you can forget about familia,

but familia ain't forgetting about you.

Okay, but what does any
of that mean?

Just go out there
and use a car to fight that shark.

Vroom, vroom.
