Prepare to count down.

[Grunting]

If we want to win the oceanquest race

We've got to paddle together.

[Sighs heavily]

Uh-oh.

What is it?

There's something down there.

It looks like...

Some sort of new sea creature!

Oh, man! It's horrible!

Yeah, right.

It's got me!

[Screams]

Don't panic!

Don't panic-- do you hear me?!

Hang on, rocket boy!

[Gasps] oh, no!

Oh, man!

The horror... Oh, the horror!

Whew!

That was...

The best april fool's joke ever!

[Laughing]: bust!

You little weasel!

I know-- wasn't it awesome?

I've got something really big planned this year.

I'm working on a cool one myself.

Just remember--

I'm the king of april fool's!

Hey, let's go to madtown--

I got to move my legs.

Madtown?

Ah... Count me out, guys.

I got to take care of some other things.

[Imitating twister]: I got to take care of some other things.

Geez, twist-- you might as well just tell

You're pulling your prank too.

But I reallydogot to do some other things.

As for you, reggie, I'm watching your every move!

Right back at you, sammy-- right back at you.

[Yelling]

You bonehead-- if you want to play

Go to nursery school.

Wait a minute, I get it...

Very funny, ha! Ha! Ha!

You can't fool me, twist.

Twist?!

I can hardly skate!

Sorry!

Wrong dude!

Daddy... The big kid called me "dude!"

Hey, where did you snag the rad lid?

Oh, this old thing?

The company gave conroy some freebies to help advertise.

Hurry-- I think there are a couple left.

I call first dibs!

Hey... Wait for me!

Awesome!

It's even got a governmental safety seal of approval!

Hey, look!

A couple of pudding heads!

[Conroy laughing]

Busted!

I can't believe I fell for that!

Conroy, can we get some towels...

And maybe a little whipped cream?

Now who's the practical joke master general?

The day is not over yet, reggie!

Like you can topourapril fool's, fool!

Wait a minute...

Twister and eddie?

What are they up to?

There are the rest of my little cuzes!

Chocolate?

No... Vanilla.

On second thought...

It's chocolate-vanilla- swirl pudding--

I hid it in their helmets!

Hey... The old pudding-in-the skateboard-helmet trick!

Classic, cuz.

It's notthatclassic.

So, tito, have you seen twist?

You just missed him-- he was headed to school.

All: on a saturday?!

Maybe that's what the april fool wants us to think.

Did you ever play april fool's tricks

When you were a kid, tito?

April fool's really is a mainland kind of thing.

Although, back in hawaii we do something called

"Nutty coconut day!"

You see, you got to find the sweetest coconut

On the big tree!

Then, you drain the milk from the coconut!

Then, the stupid person that you give it to

Thinks it's still full of milk!

[Tito laughing]

Thanks, dude!

[Gags]

[Laughs uncontrollably]

That's about it!

You sure know how to party in hawaii!

Thanks, tito-- come on, guys.

Where to?

Let's hit school-- we got to find out what twist is doing.

It's driving me crazy!

Dude, even I don't go to school on saturday.

[In quiet voice]: that's him!

Huh?

[Behind the bushes]: shh... Shh!

Choir?

A very clever attempt to throw us off, my wiley friend.

But not clever enough!

Busted!

What are you doing here, dude?

What areyoudoing here, bro?

I asked you first, man!

I asked you second, cuz.

[Screams]

Okay, I'm singing with the choir

For the founders day celebration tonight.

I thought you'd make fun of me

So I didn't tell you.

This is truly a great april fool's joke.

Think about it--

He got the three of us

To come into school

On a saturday!

Singing in the choir--

That is a primo goof!

No, I'mnotgoofing!

I reallyam singing in the choir!

Joke's over, twist--

Come on, we're missing the waves.

Why does it have to be a joke that I want to sing?!

Nice one, sammy.

I think twist is planning a bigger goof

Around the whole choir.

Maybe heissinging tonight, otto.

He didn't come out to bodysurf with us.

Oh, so now you're in on it?

You can't help him-- that's not fair!

No, I just mean when you think about it it's not so weird.

Maybe it's something we just never knew about him.

Please!

Twist misses a full day of fun at madtown

And the beach and ends up in school on a saturday?

When was the last time you heard twister sing?

Never.

So what do we do about it?

We show up at the founders day concert tonight--

That's what we do.

Get ready to hear twister sing, all right.

I love founders day.

This is the best founders day yet.

What's founders day?

I don't know.

Otto, get out of here, dude-- we're about to go on!

Nice dress, twist.

Okay, you can take it off-- joke's over!

It's not a joke, man-- I'm really singing... Right, oliver?

Yes, of course.

Twister is singing first tenor with me.

Although we split for the arpeggios.

Why can't I sing in the choir, dude?

What's wrong with that?

Because you're missing skating and surfboarding and fun... Hello?

Just because it's something you wouldn't do

Doesn't mean it's not cool!

So fine, don't believe me--

But, I'm telling you, you better get off the stage!

I just wish I could make you go through with this

And you would really embarrass yourself in front of everybody!

That would be an awesome april fool's joke.

Singing in the choir... What a waste of time!

[Clears throat]

[Drumbeat]

What was that?

[In embarrassed voice]: oh, man!

[Audience laughing]

He's the king of april fool's, all right!

I wish I had a camera!

Say cheese, dork!

[Audience still laughing]

Poor otto... Hey, he had it coming to him!

Hey, brother, want a little refreshment?

Thanks, bro.

[Choking]

What an april fool's joke!

Good one, twist-- you got me.

So, this is what it looks like from your end.

Ha, ha... Very funny.

Thank you, thank you very much.

The squid has left the building!

I have not!

Testing-- one, two-- testing.

Too bad they don't give a standing ovation

For practical jokes.

Yeah, we totally deserve it.

Ladies and gentlemen...

The practical joke champions!

Hey, what about your prank, sam?

Oh, it's coming...

[Machine imitates farting]

Ahh, squid!

Ahh, not again!

Sometimes being in the audio/visual club

Is a very, very good thing!

Bust!

[Bell ringing]

Last one to the gym is a brainiac!

Actually, you're probably right.

Don't look at me.

Uh-oh, locker room's flooded again.

I guess you lucked out, squid.

Listen up, I'm taking over

The fourth- and fifth-grade gym class

On the blacktop today.

Spread the word while I go get the gear.

Conroy? Covering gym class?

This rocks!

Skateboarding during school hours!

Conroy just said he was going to get the gear.

He didn't say what kind.

He didn't have to.

Blacktop? Gear? Conroy?

Skateboarding!

All right, everybody, listen up!

Until we fix the flooding, I'll be your gym teacher

And we'll be having a special gym class way outside, ya man!

[Kids cheering]

When do we get on our boards and ride?

After school, otto!

[Groans]

For the next few weeks

I'll be teaching you a game from my native jamaica.

It's a game we played when I was a little one

Like yourselves.

I wonder what exotic sport it could be?

I vote for skateboarding.

We know.

Just saying.

I'm talking about the ancient game of kickball.

Kickball?

We played that all the time back in kansas.

Awesome!

[Bored]: whoa.

Look at it this way, otto man, a new sport to dominate!

Oh, yeah, cool.

All right, here's the plan.

We will try out different team captains for the next few days.

At the end of tryouts

I'll pick permanent captains for the tournament.

Reggie's the ref.

Any questions?

When do I get my trophy?

Your first day captains are-- otto rocket and sherry chin.

We're going to whomp you guys.

Otto, why don't you go first?

Okay, I choose twister.

Sherry: trish, of course.

Um--

Rob curtis.

Don't feel so bad, chris, getting picked last is a drag, but...

Sherry: I chose chris klawicki.

Huh?

Aah, gee.

I guess... The squid.

Saving the best for last.

Did you all see my double?

Now, that's how you play kickball.

[Cheering]

Whoo-hoo, sammy!

Squid, what are you doing?

Quit messing around!

This is a real game.

And that was a real home run.

No way!

All the way, bro!

Sam: hey, tito, sodas for everyone, on me!

Oh, some little cuz is walking in a cool island breeze.

What's up?

Sam here made the winning run in kickball today at school.

Ah, kickball, traditional hawaiian sport.

Although, in hawaii we used a coconut instead of a ball

And called it "ow my."

What does "ow my" mean?

Ow, my aching foot!

You try kicking a coconut.

Tell me more about the kickball tournament, cuz.

Well, I don't mind telling sam here

That when I make permanent team captain

I might even consider him as an early draft pick.

You would? Really?

That would be totally awesome!

Gee, sam, what an honor to be selected by the great otto.

For once, reggie, I agree.

I was being sarcastic!

Otto: oh, man, this is perfect.

These guys are lame.

I'll be captain in the finals for sure.

Eddie, go ahead.

So, eddie, here's who you should pick second.

I'll take sam dullard.

What?

Sam, go up, man, you got picked first!

Me? Picked first?

Don't pass out.

Don't pass out.

Isn't that cool?

Is this opposite day and nobody told me?

Get real, eddie's just doing him a favor.

Lighten up, rocket boy.

Can't you just be happy for sam?

All right.

Yay, sam.

So, I say we do the leopard loop coaster next

And then the log jammer.

I think this kickball thing is going to the squid's head.

Come on, let's hit it!

Uh, sam?

Doesn't this ride freak you out?

Oh, yeah, ah...

Who's going to join me?

[Screaming and cheering]

Conroy: well, boys and girls, the time is upon us.

I am pleased to announce team captains

For the championship tournament.

They are...

Otto rocket, otto rocket, otto rocket...

Conroy: sherry chin!

And...

Otto, otto, otto, otto, otto.

Sam dullard.

No way!

I mean, way to go, sam.

Nice sportsmanship, otto.

I can't believe it.

This stinks on ice!

Relax, dude, the squid's going to pick you and me

And then we can run the team the way we want.

Like I didn't know that?

Sam, go ahead and pick.

Sam: I pick...

I pick...

Trish!

A girl? He went ahead and picked a girl instead of me.

What did you say?

Nothing.

Twister rodriguez, come on down!

Yes, I got picked for sam's team!

Oops, sorry, man.

Otto rocket.

Squid's a traitor!

After all I've done for that little dweeb.

This is so unfair!

I'm sure he has a good reason.

What reason could there be to turn his back on me?

Oh, I don't know.

Like whenyounever picked him for a team?

He is going to wish he was never made captain.

I'm the team captain, whoo...

Otto, wait up!

Hey, I looked for you after, but you already split.

Good game, huh?

I couldn't believe we won against you.

Well, look who's here, benedict squid.

Huh?

Why don't you play

With your new friends on your new team, champ?

But i... But--

Ah, what happened to my "sodas all around" cuz?

Man, I don't know what I did.

I just said "hi" to otto and he told me to get lost.

That's not good.

Reggie tells me this is all over the tournament?

I guess.

What did I do?

You didn't pick him.

Then you b*at him.

Ooh, brother's got a point.

So what?

You guys pick sam last every time.

Ooh, wahini's got a point.

But I was just trying to put together the best team.

I wasn't trying to hurt his feelings.

Oh, brother's got a...

Um, never mind.

Maybe your feelings weren't hurt before

Because sports don't mean as much to you, sam.

But they do to otto.

And I was so wrapped up in winning, I didn't think.

Happens to me all the time, oh.

The thing I hate the most is when my friends are mad at me.

What am I going to do?

You guys hang out.

I'm going to take a little ride.

Hey, reggie.

Listen, otto, I was talking to sam.

Sam? I don't know any sam.

Reggie: sure you do.

He's the guy you picked last in kickball.

The guy you leave behind when we rollerblade the pier

And make him catch up?

The guy you called a puck brain

When he fell during street hockey.

Whoa!

You know, that sam.

I guess he was getting us back for all that.

Guess again, he wasn't.

He was just trying to have the best team.

That was a little selfish, don't you think?

What would you have done?

The same thing.

What can I say?

I say we get sam and go play a game of kickball.

But this time, it's just for fun.

Count me in!

[Cheering]

[Groaning]

[Laughing]: it's okay, it's okay, we'll hold him.

One more point and they win, come on, guys!

Everybody ready?

Ready!

[Laughing]

[Grunts]

[Cheering]

Now, that was a team effort.

All: bust!

You should have seen your face.

[Burps]

You couldn't see yours.

You were eating dirt.

I think I was eating otto's shoes.

I say we go to the shack to celebrate.

Celebrate what? We lost!

There's a first time for everything.

Soda for the losers, on me.

Come on, let's go!

All: come on, come on!
