Egg! Egg! Egg! Faster!

Teaspoon! Hand it to me!

This is Meredith.
She's a lunatic.

But she wins the baking competition
every single year.

Oh, she's... she's very scary.

Yes, yes, she is.

But she's the one we have
to beat. So we gotta practise.

-OK. Ready, Theodore?
-Ready!

Flour!

Butter!

Eggs! Eggs!

-Oopsie.
-No, no, that's OK.

That's why we're practising.

Eight minutes, 14 seconds! Yes!

We are so going to win
this bake-off!

Yeah, we are!

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Yeah! Yeah!

OK, maybe we don't...
we don't do that.

OK, let's practise the frosting.
We've got seven minutes.

-You ready?
-Ready!

Icing sugar!

I'm going to pretend
that didn't just happen.

And that my beautiful flowers,
that I grew with my own hands,

are not covered in icing sugar!

And... butter!

Whoo! We are one heck of a team!

Hey, guys, what's up?

Do you guys not knock
any more or...?

Knock, knock.

[sniffs] Look, there's a bunch
of delicious smells coming from here

and we want in.

Oh, you wanna try our cake?

Theodore,
what's wrong with your face?

Theodore, you're sweating.
Are you OK?

Oh, no. I'm fine.
I'm... I'm just a little hot.

Is... is there
a heatwave going on?

You... you guys aren't hot?

-Um, Theodore...
-Boy, it's... it's really hot.

I... I hope
I'm wearing underwear.

Theodore, Theodore, don't!

Oh, thank goodness.

Yeah, yeah,
that's... that's better.

I'm cooler now.

This child should stop eating sweets.
Like, right away.

Well, if the last thing
he ate was cake,

it's safe to assume
he's allergic to sugar or flour,

maybe eggs.

What? What... what's happening?

Where... where am I?

You had an allergic reaction,

so, while we try to figure out
what caused it,

you're going to have to limit
your diet to the basics.

B... Basics? But...

-But I can still eat cookies, right?
-No.

-Raisins?
-No.

-Strawberries?
-No.

-Cookies?
-You already asked that!

You can't eat anything
that could set it off.

Don't worry. You'll be OK.

That's easy for you to say,
mister!

[stomach rumbles]

I know, I know. I'm hungry too.

-[stomach rumbles]
-Hey!

If we're going to do this,
we need to be quiet!

[stomach rumbles more softly]

OK, let's go!

-Theodore!
-Aaah!

-What are you doing?
-Oh... I... I'm just, um...

I'm just doing some...
some homework.

In the middle of the night,
on the kitchen counter?

Yes, because, uh, we're, uh,
growing mould for science class!

And... and they would like it
to be mouldy, um... cookies!

Or... or mouldy cake,
or mouldy doughnuts.

Well, we don't have
any of that stuff.

I took it all out of the house.

[sobbing] What? Why?

What...
what's the matter with you?

Why... why are you being
so mean, Dave?

Theodore,
you can't eat sweets right now.

I... I wasn't eating sweets!

It was for my science class!
I told you already!

OK, look.
Let's get you back up to bed

and I'll make sure to bring

a mouldy cookie
for your science class.

Just forget it!

That's the stupidest thing
I ever heard,

throwing away doughnuts
and cookies and cake.

I don't even understand.

[Chipmunk song playing]

Hey, Theodore, can you, uh,

can you come up here
for a second?

You understand this...
this looks bad, right?

-Yes, I do.
-That's stealing, Theodore.

Yeah, I know.

You have to promise us
you won't do this any more.

OK, I... I promise.

Can you handle the competition

or will you go
like a crazy person again?

Yeah.

OK, let's get started.

Let's run through that icing technique
one last time.

-OK.
-[phone rings]

Oh, I'll be right back.

Oh, looks good! Just a lick...

No, no, I can't!

Put it on the cake!
Put it on the cake!

-[gasps]
-Hey!

Theodore, your face
is turning blotchy again!

-What did you sneak?
-Nothing! I... I promise!

Theodore, don't lie to me.

You are clearly
having a reaction.

I... I'm not lying!

But if you don't believe me,

I don't want to be
in this stupid competition!

Wait!
But I can't win without you!

I'm... I'm sorry.

Theodore,

I don't think
you realise how serious this is.

I don't think you realise
how serious this is.

-I know you're frustrated.
-Anyone would be frustrated

if they couldn't eat
the food they love.

Oh, yeah?
Well, how would you know?

And... and I'll tell ya,
I'm not eating this slop!

Oh, come on, Theodore.

The food Dave made you
can't be that bad.

[gags]

-Alvin, stop it.
-[gags]

Stupid!
Can't eat my favourite foods!

[gasps]
Oh! Oh, Teddy, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Teddy!

I... I get really mean
when I'm not allowed to eat.

[throws tantrum]

[sobs]

I... I hate everything!

I... I hate it!

[gagging]

Alvin, cut it out!

-Alvin, you're not helping!
-[gagging]

OK, look. It's fine, OK?
Watch.

[both start gagging]

Seriously, guys?
I know what I put in this.

[gags]

[boys continue gagging]

Theodore, aren't you going
to the competition?

-No.
-Oh. OK.

And now your local news.

Oh, well, of course I'm going
to win the competition.

-Yes. Well, you're...
-And you know why?

It's because I'm the best!

These young little squirts
challenge me every year,

but they don't stand a chance.

I'm right here, Meredith.

So, what do you have to say?

-Well, I think we...
-They're just dumb!

They're just dumb
and pathetic and egotistical

-to think...
-Excuse me.

Ha! She... she doesn't
even have a sous-chef!

[mocking laughter]

-Wait, Eleanor!
-Theodore!

-What are you doing here?
-I want to help you.

Well, that is,
if you'll still have me.

Are you kidding?
You're my little secret weapon!

-Where are my spatulas?
-[gasps] That's her.

Yes, it is.

Oh, look,
you have a little helper.

I'm still gonna cream you.

-Do you hear what I'm sayin', little boy?
-Yes.

I sure hope you manage to keep
the eggshells out of your batter.

Oh, thank you so much
for reminding me, Meredith!

You are just a doll. Truly.

Wait! For good luck!

Chefs, put on your aprons.

And... start baking!

Bowl! Whisk!

Flour!

Almond milk! Chocolate!

He's doing great!

They're way ahead
of that Meredith lady.

Baking powder!

Theodore, baking powder!

Now!

Theodore?

[distant, slowed down]
Theodore? Are you OK?

Did... did we win?

No. No, we lost pretty brutally,
but I don't care.

-There's always next year.
-What do you think it is, Doc?

As I said, allergies require
a long process of elimination.

Come here. What is this?

It's a flower I grew
with my own hands in the garden.

-Would you like one?
-Are you nuts?

This is an extremely allergenic
kind of flower!

You shouldn't be
in the hospital with that!

-Oh! I didn't know.
-Gimme that!

Problem solved.

So, I'm not allergic
to all my favourite foods?

Well, there's a good chance
that, no. No, you're not.

Oh! Yay!

Guys, I say we celebrate
the good news and go out.

-Oh! Let's get dumplings!
-No! No! Thai food! Please!

-Oh! Oh! Italian!
-[Dave] Theodore, what do you say?

Oh, everything!
I... I want everything!

[snoring]

Boy, he... he's really sleeping.

Hmm. Yeah, he's not waking up.

h*, h*, h*! This'll be great!

Simon, Simon,
go get the video camera.

Sometimes... sometimes
I blow on his eyeball,

like... like a gentle breeze.

Dave?

[blows]

Dave?

[blows]

Aaah!

Oh! How are we not filming this?

What? What?
What... what happened?

Dave, Dave, everything's OK.
Everything's OK.

Well,
that's a matter of opinion!

But... it's only 9:30, so...

Oh, no! Alvin, what did you do?

Wait. Wait. Hold on. Me?
Seriously? I didn't do anything!

You expect me
to believe that...?

He's actually telling the truth, Dave.
He didn't do anything.

Yeah, see there was
a lice outbreak at school.

So, um, well,
they... they sent us all home.

Lice outbreak?

Yes! Lice outbreak!

OK. Sorry, Alvin.

Apology not accepted.

But, Dave, not to worry.
I'm not even mad.

'Cause we're out of school
for three whole days!

h*, h*, h*, h*! Yes!

Oh, come on. Three days
just 'cause some kids got lice?

Doesn't that seem a little,
I don't know, excessive?

Excessive?

I... I can't get lice!
Is that clear, everyone?

I cannot get lice!

All right. Look. Would you guys
please try and keep it down?

I'm really busy in here and...

Yeah, you looked super busy
when we came in.

Look, Dave, here's the thing.

Miss Smith has given each student
a project to work on,

plus a list of assignments,
and she wants parents to help.

-She does...? Really?
-Yeah.

She... she says that parents
aren't involved enough

in their kids' education.

OK. Um... well... all right.

Well, then let's do this.

[Theodore] Uh, let's talk snacks.

-Snacks?
-Yeah.

I mean, you don't expect us to learn
on an empty stomach, do you?

Well, no.

OK, so, usually,
we have a mid-morning snack,

then a pre-afternoon snack,
then a...

Well, how about
I just make you a chart?

Oh. All right. You know what,
Theodore? That's fine.

Yes! Oh, I love school at home!

OK, guys,
I'm gonna go upstairs

and just get the classroom ready.

[Dave] OK, everyone ready?

Welcome to school.
I'm your teacher, Mr Seville.

[chuckles] You know,
sometimes when they teach...

OK. Well, anyway...

All right, well, let's open our books
to page 312.

-Yes, Theodore?
-It's snack time.

No, Theodore.
Now, as I was saying,

-today's lesson is all...
-Aaah!

-What? What?
-Lice! Aaah! Lice!

[screaming]

Oh! Wait, wait, wait.

It's... it's just a piece
of... of lint.

[sighs of relief]

Sorry.

Yes, Theodore?

It's snack time, Dave.

Ugh! No, Theodore.

But it's on the chart!

You're joking, right?

Dave, I'm very serious.

Well, OK,
I guess it's snack time.

Mmm! Good!

OK, so,
now that snack time's over,

let's get back to our lesson.

-Please turn to...
-Aaah!

-What? What?
-Lice!

[screaming]

Oh! Wait, wait.

Sorry.
It's... it's just a poppy seed.

[sighs of relief]

Isn't there anything we can do
to protect ourselves?

Oh! Um...
I... I... I have an idea.

I just want to say this feels,
you know, a bit extreme, guys.

But, if, you know,
if it makes everyone feel more comforta...

What is it now?
And don't tell me it's snack time!

-I'm hot.
-Me too, Dave.

Yeah.
Can we get out of these suits?

I'm sweating here.
I'm gonna drown.

Yeah, Dave. This doesn't work.

OK, fine.
Just get out of your suits.

OK, now I'm not fooling around any more.

Now, just open your books to...

-What?
-Sorry, um,

but we have to work
on our individual projects.

Oh, really?

It's all there
on the information list, Dave.

All right. All right. Fine.

-What are you working on?
-Chemistry.

-Well, maybe I can help.
-Don't touch that!

All right, um, all right.

Dave, now just, you know,
just carefully put the beaker

-back on the table.
-OK... got it.

-Lice!
-Aaah!

Oh. Nope.
Not... not lice. Sorry.

-[sighs of relief]
-Um, Dave...

maybe you should help
one of the other kids.

Right. Right. Right.

Dave! Dave!
I need your help over here.

-Oh, sure, sure! Happy to help.
-Sit down, please.

-Alvin, where are you going?
-To the bathroom.

Come on. I mean,
do I need a permission slip?

No, but...

Here, Alvin!

I'll be in charge
of permission slips and snacks.

OK, hold on just... Aaah!

-Wait a...
-Dave! Dave! Hold still!

I'm working on a report
for cruelty-free make-up.

No! No, I don't want to...

Dave, this is really important!

Did you just take my picture,
Theodore?

Yeah!
Photography class, Dave.

Oh, Britt,
can you make him look like a cat?

-I'll try.
-Yeah, but a kind of mangy,

creepy, scary, like one-eyed,
snaggletoothed cat?

-What?
-I'm to make an animal costume.

-I don't want to be a cat!
-OK, Dave! Hold very still.

I'm applying your eye make-up...

-Aaah! Lice! Lice!
-[all] Aaah!

Oh, wait.
No. Sorry. False alarm.

I thought you said
this was cruelty-free.

-Snack time!
-Theodore, come on,

we just had snack time.

We finally had
a little rhythm going.

But... but I'm...
I'm getting weak, Dave.

Look, we're gonna have
snack time soon enough, OK?

You'll just have to wait.

What's happening?

Yeah, he does this
when he misses snack time.

He calls it,
"Cookie Deficiency Syndrome."

Yeah. Yeah.
That's definitely CDS.

Ooh, looks like
a pretty bad case of it, too.

All right.
That's enough of this nonsense.

Theodore,
please sit back in your seat.

Yeah, that is a no-go, Dave.

He'll need that cookie
for strength.

This is ridiculous.

OK, here we go, Theodore.
Come on.

Stop... Stop messing around.

Really? Come on. Come on.
Sit up now.

Quit messing...
Theodore, come on!

OK, snack time!

Did... did someone say
it was snack time?

Snack time!

-Where have you been?
-The bathroom.

-Again?
-I'm trying to stay hydrated!

Come on!
I'm drinking a lot of water

and you know what happens then?

I know how it works, Alvin!

How are you coming
with your song assignment?

OK, OK. Um...
try shortening this line, OK?

It'll fit better with the timing.

-But I like that line.
-Yeah, but it doesn't fit.

Why don't you just write
the song, then?

Just say whatever you want!

No, Alvin, it's your proj...
What are you trying to convey?

I'm trying to speak
to my generation, OK?

Our angst! Our troubles!
Our problems with our parents!

And you're taking out
the best stuff!

Alvin, I'm just saying,
when you say,

"My skateboard goes super fast
when I go downhill, downdill,

downwill, downjill,"

it just seems
like it's a lazy rhyme, Alvin.

-Those are the best parts!
-OK, great. Snack time!

Here you go, Dave.

Have a cookie.

Make you less grumpy.

Theodore, don't hand out snacks
with so much sugar.

It makes kids hyper.

Oh, no.
That doesn't happen to us, Dave.

'Cause, you know,
we're chipmunks.

[Chipmunk song playing]

[snoring]

Hello!

Uh! Oh! Miss Smith! H-Hello!

I thought I'd stop by
to see how everyone is doing.

Oh! Oh, fine.

It looks like you have a sugar
crash happening, Mr Seville.

And... and where is Alvin?

Bathroom?

Dave, a little privacy?
I told you, I have to...

-Hello, Alvin.
-Oh! Miss Smith!

-What are you doing here?
-Alvin!

Don't feel too bad.
He did this to me three times

before I caught on to him.

I'll stop by tomorrow and see
how it's coming. Stay strong.

You, mister! Back in class! Now!

-[bell rings]
-Ugh! OK.

School's over for today, guys.

-Yes!
-Spot check!

Um, Brittany?

Have you noticed
you've been scratching your head?

No. Why?

Well, you've been checking all of us
all day,

but has anyone checked you?

Don't be ridiculous, Simon!

There's no way
I'm the one who... What?

No! No! Aaah!

-This stuff really stinks.
-Who cares? It's just...

Aaah!

Thank you!

"Thank you for all you do
for the kids, Miss Smith.

I just wanted to let you know
how much we all appreciate you.

Yours truly, David Seville."

OK, children.
Let's pick up where we left off.

Please open your books
