01x16 - Planet Jackers

[bunniefuu]

[cheering]

[glass breaks]

Aah ha ha ha!

Enhance.

Computer...

locate Invader Flobie.

Flobie seems to
be doing all right.

Computer, show me Invader Stink.

Stink never was
much of an Invader.

I'd be surprised if he's
even got a good disguise yet.

Ha ha! Resting on
the job, eh, Stink?

Pathetic!

Eh! Ah! Ah!

Dah!

All the Invaders
are farther along

in their conquest than I am!

Computer, show me Invader Skuch.

Skuch was a total
failure in the academy.

Hey! What is this?

Computer, I want
to see Invader Skuch.

Computer: Exact
Skuch coordinates set.

I see no Skuch.
Go back to Stink.

GIR, come to the observatory.

Yes?

What have you done
to the telescope?

Nothing.

You haven't touched it?

Something is broken,
and it's not your fault?

I know. I'm scared, too.

Computer, display
scope image on-screen.

I love this show.

What is that?

I know this from somewhere.

[gasps]

Aah!

Aah!

[both screaming]

Woo! Do that again.

If what I saw was
what I thought I saw,

then there isn't
time to fix the scope.

I'll have to find another,
more powerful telescope

to confirm my... suspicions.

Let's make biscuits!

Let's make biscuits.

GIR: What about that one?

Zim: It certainly looks
powerful enough,

but it belongs to the Dib human.

So? He seems nice.

We want to destroy these people,

not ask them for help.

The very thought of it

makes me make
little sicky noises.

[expl*si*n]

Aah... Uh!

Uh!

[crickets chirping]

Eeh...

Reh...

Ah...

[doorbell chimes]

[door creaks]

Nyeh!

Zim: I need to
use your telescope.

Gaz, there's an
alien in the house.

Gaz: You mean besides you?

We don't have
time for this, Dib.

Your world might be
in very great danger.

Well, yeah. You're trying to
destroy the human race, remember?

Ha ha ha ha. Oh, yes.

But this is different --

something else entirely.

I need the use
of your telescope.

You think I'm stupid?

I mean, what kind
of weak alien needs

the help of the people
he intends to conquer?

Have you seen the sky?

I'm not going out there, Zim.

I'm not falling for
whatever it is you're up to.

Aah!

[shrieking]

Earth is safe once more.

But for how long?

Gaz: Be quiet.

[slobbering]

Stupid human!

We only have one option, GIR.

We're taking the voot
cruiser out to investigate.

It's a good thing I fixed the
g-force compensators on the cruiser

before this little trip
we're about to take.

It was acting kind of funny.

G-force...

Uh!

[Zim screams]

Aah!

Aah!

Aaah! Aaah!

Aaah!

[crash]

Uh! Oof!

What did we hit?

Noooo!

The Earth has been stolen, GIR.

Stolen?

By the Planet Jackers.

Computer...

Bring up the Planet
Jackers' halo-simulation.

They sneak up on
unsuspecting planets

and enclose them in
a halo-metal bubble.

The inside of the sphere
is one big television screen

which projects a sky so no
one knows what happened.

GIR: I like TV.

Those Earthquakes
we've been feeling

are the pull from when
they change direction.

Tell me a story
about giant pigs.

[grunt]

Zim: The Planet Jackers'
homeworld orbits a dying sun.

They throw planets into it
like firewood to keep it burning.

And now... They have the Earth.

Yay!

No, GIR. That's bad.

Ohh.

Do you know what this means?

Yes!

You don't really, do you?

Mmm.

It means we won't
get to destroy it.

Our mission will
be a total failure.

Imagine the Irken
Armada showing up

and the entire
planet is missing.

Oooh!

There's got to be a
way out of this shell.

There!

That's it.

That's them!

Look at that. Binary system.

That's a pair of stars
orbiting around each other.

You ever been to
a binary system?

[deep voice] No.

[country music playing on radio]

Would it k*ll you
to say something?

Quiet, or I'll eat your head.

Is that enough words for you?

I was just trying to
make conversation.

Zim on radio: Excuse me.

Hey, look at the
little green guy.

What do you think you're doing?

Well, see that
planet back there?

Yes.

We're gonna
throw it into our sun.

Why, you got a
problem with that?

That one's gonna burn real good.

Lots of critters.
Critters burn good.

Yes, I have a problem.

Maybe you have forgotten about

the Irken/Planet Jacker treaty,

stating that all planets
marked for conquest

by the Irken m*llitary are
to be left where they are!

No, no. This planet
wasn't marked.

This one's free game.

Then it's a mistake.

I know for certain the
armada expects me

to ensure this planet's doom.

Can't you just go get
some other planet?

I got a better idea.

We'll take this planet,

and you go do a different one.

I was here first!

I'm getting tired
of you, green thing.

Aaah!

Ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha!

Look! Ooh!

Pick up the pace.
We're almost home.

There isn't much time.
GIR, fly the cruiser.

I have a plan...
an amazing plan.

[country music on radio]

[metallic clanging]

I'll take care of it.

Uh! Uh!

Uh! Uh!

Please... stop that.

It's really annoying.

Ooh!

I am Zim! Irken Invader Zim.

I am responsible for the safe
obliteration of the human race -- not you!

That's it!

[growls]

Release the planet, thief!

There's only one way
to undo the coupling.

But you'll have to
get through me first.

Ha ha ha.

Aah!

GIR! GIR!

Catch me!

Bring the cruiser
around and catch me!

Yes, sir!

Uh!

Hi!

Let me in, GIR!

Oof!

Guh... aah!

They're getting away.

We're losing the planet, GIR!

The Tallest will
k*ll me for sure!

Now, time for another
amazing plan from me --

Zim! [Echoes]

The pods should
cut through the shell.

I'll just have to
keep them occupied

so they don't notice
what's happening.

You let me know when it's done.

Oh, look who's back.

[growls]

Let's get this over
with, little man.

Sure.

Why not?

Arrr!

Aah!

Arrr! Aah!

Aaah! Arrr!

Pretty.

You had enough yet?

It's done!

[crunch, crunch]

OK! I think I'm
through with you.

[growls]

[birds chirping]

[distant screaming]

The Earth is safe.
I did it, GIR!

Now let's go destroy it.

GIR: Yay!

Another job well done, yeah?

Yeah.

Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha!
