[chicken clucks]

I can't believe we're all going
to this mushy Valentine's dance.

Oh, come on, Cricket.

-Love is in the air.
-That's right.

And I love my veggies.

They're going to be a big hit
at the snack table.

That's beautiful, Papa.

I support love
in its many forms.

Not me! Back in my day,

you didn't dance
until you were married.

And you danced in the dark
with your eyes closed.

Well, I ain't dancing
with nobody, and that's that.

[indistinct chattering]

Ew, are those heart balloons?

If you need me, I'll be in
the bathroom throwing up.

Oh.

Ah, Cupid.

Bringing people together
with his magical arrows of love.

If only I could have
such a noble calling.

If only.

Tonight, my mission is clear.

I shall make some lucky soul
fall in love.

Sheesh, I ain't seen this much
corn since that silo collapse.

Cricket, over here!

Guys, I didn't know
you were going to be here.

Yeah, I tried calling your house
to tell you I was coming,

-but no one answered.
-Yeah, sorry about that.

Our phone broke again.

Stop calling me!

[grunts]

Y'all ready to hit
the dance floor?

I want to boogie.

Are you going to ask
a girl to dance?

Oh, Remy, Remy, Remy.

Dancing with a girl is
the gateway to falling in love.

And I don't want nothing
to do with that.

Love takes away your freedom and
makes you all mushy and gushy.

Love makes a strong man weak.

Love gives you nothing
and takes away everything.

It's better to just be dudes
enjoying boy stuff.

Having friend adventures
forever.

Like those two dudes.

Terry!

Tonight, it's just
us guys.

So let's get
our dance on!

-Yeah, yeah, yeah!
-Whoo-hoo!

Shaking my tail feather
with my homies.

Thanks for letting us help out,
Community Sue.

Oh, no, thank you.

After all,
we rely on volunteers,

because we have
no money.

You, you'll be manning
the snack table.

All right, guys,
do what you were born to do.

And you. I'm putting you
in charge of chaperone duty.

-Sure thing.
-Nancy? Chaperoning?

She's the last person
who should be in charge

of a bunch
of excitable kids.

Make me a chaperone too.

Okay, you can both
be chaperones,

because I do not care.

Normally, I'd be
coaching swim class.

But tonight, oh, DJ Sue
is here to drop that beat!

[all cheer]

[all]
Boys! Boys! Boys! Boys!

Uh, excuse me?

Uh-oh, fellas.
Intruder alert.

[all]
Intruder! Intruder!

Well, my friend just asked me
to ask you

if you want to dance with her.

What?

Hey, I'm Gabriella.
What's your name?

My name is Gabriella.

[laughs]
Okay.

I saw you across the gym

and was wondering
if you'd like to dance with me?

Me? Dance with you?

Well, I, uh...

Come on, Cricket, turn her down.
Guys forever.

Yeah, break her heart.

Yeah. Yeah!
Gabriella, I...

I...

I... I will be right back.

[imitating robot buzzing]

Ah!

[panting and whimpering]

What's happening to me?

-Hey, watch where you're going.
-Gloria?

What are you doing here?

I'm waiting on Kevin
to get here.

-He is so cool.
-Wow, Gloria.

You really sound like
you're in love.

Heck, yeah.

Hey, uh, how do you know
if you're...

ahem, in love?

Oh, you'll know because
it's a swirl of emotions.

Your heart beats fast,
you sweat all the time,

you're riddled with self-doubt

and you second-guess
every waking thought!

That's exactly
what I'm going through.

Something weird happened
when I saw this girl.

It's like I don't want
to dance with her,

but then I look at her
and I do want to dance with her,

but I don't think
she's cute enough...

[retching]

Oh, does somebody
have a crush?

No, no, no. Don't say that.
Don't say that.

Pfft, amateur.

I had my first panic attack
when I was, like, half his age.

Bull's-eye.
Now to spread more romance.

-Whoa!
-[groans]

Fly straight and true,
sweet arrows.

Give everyone the gift of...
love?

[all groaning]

My arrows haven't made
even one person fall in love?

I must consult
a higher power.

Oh, guardian of romance,

I was selfish.

I wanted to be the one
to choose who falls in love.

Forgive me, Cupid.
And bless this arrow.

I will not disappoint you.

I, like, like you.

Whatever.

Too close!

Get back, you.

Further.

Further.

Further!

I, like, can't even
see him anymore.

[phone rings]

Uh, hello?

[Alice]
Further.

Ha! That's better.

Now you got some room
for common decency.

Jace and I have never
been this far apart before.

I'm starting to forget
what he looks like!

Hmm.

Oh, hey, son.

Want a piece of broccoli?

I put some ranch on it
to jazz it up.

Thanks, Dad. I could really use
the distraction from...

Gabriella.

Are you ready
for another wedding?

Ooh, I love getting
married every day.

[all]
Kiss the bride! Kiss the bride!

Kiss the bride!

[grunting]

[screams]

Aah!

[gasps]
No!

[panting]

Flash. I just need to--
Flash.

Aah! Pull yourself together.

Flash.

[grunting]

Huh?

Yes.

The cool water
will help clear my head.

[laughs]

Cupid's blessing
means my last arrow

is sure to work.

Whoever I hit will fall in love
with the first person they see.

Hello, good sir.

Today is your lucky day.

Oh, Cupid, shine your love
on this miserable creature.

Amen, hallelujah.

Oh, a penny.
My lucky day.

Aah!

[groaning]

Struck by my own arrow.

Excuse me, sir. I...

Well, hello.

Ah, this is the right idea.

Ain't no love
gonna find me here.

[Gabriella]
Uh, hey.

What are you doing
in the pool?

Aah! Gabriella!

[panting and screaming]

Uh... hi, Gabriella.

I've been looking
for you everywhere.

You never answered
my question.

Do you want
to dance with me?

Do I want to dance
with Gabriella?

What kind of question
is that?

[overlapped voices]

Uh, did you
even hear me?

[screams]

Hey, what's the big idea?

-[panting]
-Uh...

I'll never make it through this
dance without falling in love.

I got to get the guys
and get the heck out of here.

You're so firm.

And yet
you're so soft.

That's good.
I like a sensitive man.

Drink it in, people.

This is what love
looks like.

That's right,
ten feet apart.

Huh?

-Jace!
-Kareen!

I thought I'd never
see you again.

What do you think
you're doing, Nancy?

I separated those two
for their own good.

Oh, please.
They're just having fun.

Ooh, I knew this place
would burn to the ground

with you in charge!

You know, I'm getting
the feeling

this whole thing isn't really
about chaperoning.

Why do you have such a problem
with me, Alice?

You're bad news,
plain and simple.

You're stubborn,
you do whatever you want,

and you never listen to anyone
but yourself.

[laughs]
Yup. That does sound like me.

But it also sounds
just like you.

Maybe we're more similar
than either one of us

would care to admit.

Sweet corn beans.

I never saw it that way.

Well played, Nancy.

Well played.

Guys, guys, we got to get
out of here and-- Huh?

Wh-Wh-What is happening?

It's worse than I thought.
Love is everywhere.

I got to save me
and my friends.

But how? Huh?

The sprinklers?

That's it. I will cleanse
this dance of love

by drowning it
with water.

Shake those yams, people!

Now do some squats.

[all]
Squat! Squat!

-What the...?
-Squat! Squat! Squat!

Time to end this love fest
once and for all.

[gasps]
Chaperones!

Stop that kid!

What do you say,
partner?

Let's chaperone.

Get away from that!

Gramma? Mom?

Why are you trying
to ruin the dance, suge?

I've got to save me
and my friends from love.

What are you talking about?

Love messes up your life.

It makes you act
all silly and weird.

And love makes you sad.
So very, very, very sad.

Love takes and takes until
you don't have anything left.

It's a horrible,
emotional roller coaster!

And I don't want no ticket.

Whoa, whoa, just hold on
a second, Cricket.

Love doesn't take things
away from you.

It can give you something
really special,

like a person
who understands you.

But you'll never know unless
you give someone a chance.

Sometimes, you might have more
in common than you thought.

Wow, Alice, that's real sweet
of you to say.

Don't read into it
too much.

Love doesn't take,
it gives?

[sighs]
Excuse me.

I got to go
find someone.

Gabriella!

I have seen the light!

I thought love
was an evil thing.

But I see now that it's not
about gushy, mushy stuff.

It's about creating
a partnership

with someone who
understands you.

And we understand
each other.

So, Gabriella,
I'm finally ready

to accept our love.

Love? Dude, I don't love you.
I don't even know your name.

It's Cricket.

Yeah, well, you were being super
weird about wanting to dance,

so I just ended up
asking your friend.

What?

Hey, Cricket. Sorry, I know.

I broke the "boys forever" rule.

But Gabriella's
really cool.

I couldn't say no.

And you don't want to dance
with her anyway, right?

Dance with her?

[laughs and scoffs]

No way. Love's gross.

Nothing will ever
change that.

Have fun with your cooties.

[both laugh]

Kevin never showed?

Yup. Best friend's dancing
with the girl of your dreams?

Yup.

Want to boogie it out?

Ugh. Come on.

Whoa!

Looks like it's just you and me
tonight, broccoli.

Oh, ranch.

Mm. Zesty.

[laughs]
Yeah, that's ranch for you.

Hey, want to dance?

[laughs]
Whoa!

[all laughing and chattering]

Two feet apart, people!

Keep it two feet apart!

[birds tweeting]

Oh, what a beautiful day.

The sun is shining,
the birds are singing,

the butterflies
are butterflying.

Whoa!

What the heck?

Did someone just leave a banana
peel in front of my house,

where anyone
could slip on it?

I have been wronged.

[Keys]
Ow! Ma'am?

Oh, excuse me, ma'am.

This bread bowl
is too hard to eat.

Oh, my gosh.
That is not--

[grunting]

Let me take that.

Ah, yes.

Bring me a fresh bowl,
please.

Excuse me, Officer Keys?

Why, if it isn't little
Cricket Green.

So no-good, filthy litterbug
threw this banana peel

in front of my house,
where I slipped on it.

Dust this for prints, officer.

I want this litterbug
behind bars.

Twenty years to life.

[laughs]
Oh, well.

Doesn't that seem like a bit
of an overreaction?

What? But I'm a victim
of this crime.

Well, sure, but everyone
makes mistakes.

Sometimes you got to cut people
some slack.

Cut people some slack?

You go easy
on this litterbug

and they'll keep on
littering and littering

until we're up to our eyes
in trash.

As an officer of the law,

you're the only one with the
authority to put an end to this,

so that no more
little boys

have to slip and fall
on their tushies.

Wow, I'd never thought of it
that way before.

You know, catching this
litterbug might be easier

with two people
instead of one.

What do you say, partner?

-Count me in.
-Ha-ha! Great!

Just don't tell
my superior.

Cricket, stop mocking
that police officer.

Oh, no, no, no.
He's not mocking me.

He's my new partner.

Yup. I'm now an officer
of the law.

Finally, Keys has a partner
with equal intelligence.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

My own brother,

a bona fide
boy of the badge.

A boy in blue.

A blue boy.

Thank you for your support,
civilians.

Now if you'll excuse us,

time to put the trash
where--

Time to take the--

Time to take
the trash out.

[tires squeal]

Took him a while
to get there,

but that was
a super-cool exit line.

Welcome to my cop car.

Guests sit in the back.

And down here
is my police computer.

I find it perfect
for holding snacks and bobbles.

-[car horn honks]
-Oh, right. I'm driving.

Enough chitchat, Keys.

We've got our work
cut out for us.

Anyone could be
the litterbug.

Like that guy.

Or that baby.

Or, hold the phone...
that guy!

That guy's eating a banana.

-Officer Keys, pull over!
-Whoa!

Hello, citizen.

Freeze, scumbag.

What my partner
means to say is,

are you the litterbug
that's been plaguing our city?

I don't think so.

Great.
Thank you for your time.

Whoa, whoa, whoa,
what are you doing?

If we're going to catch
the litterbug,

You'll have to be
tougher than that.

-We'll have to--
-[Keys laughing]

Oh, that tickles.

Keys, are you even
paying attention?

There's tons of infractions
on this street.

Look over there.
That woman is jaywalking.

[Keys]
Well, she's clearly on her way
to a birthday party.

No sense ruining someone's day
over a little mistake.

There are no mistakes
when it comes to the law. Huh?

Have fun at the birthday party,
ma'am.

Keys! Ugh, no wonder
this neighborhood is a mess.

Whoa!

More litter?

It's getting worse.

Looks like the litterbug
struck again, eh, partner?

All right, I've seen
how you operate.

So on this next one,
I'm taking the lead.

Ooh, power shift.
Sounds good.

What did you have in mind,
partner?

I don't know about you, Keys,

but I'm suddenly
feeling thirsty.

Gee, thanks, mister.

Bye. I love you.

Now, remember,
just follow my lead.

[blowing raspberries]

Hello, friends.

Would you like
some lemonade?

Not today, Benny.
We're here to talk.

I love talking.

What do you want
to talk about?

Grass? Trees? Dreams?

Quit stalling and tell me what
you know about the litterbug.

Little bug?

-I know a little bug.
-You do?

I know where lots
of little bugs are.

Right down there.

Huh? A lollipop?

This doesn't belong here,
now does it?

Bah! Cherry?

I hate cherry.

Who left this
on the street?

Tee-hee,
these guys tickle.

So that's how you're going
to play it, huh?

Maybe you'll feel like talking
if I do this.

Have some lemon juice
in your eye.

What the--? Aah!

Golly, "Clicket,"
that looks like it stings.

You bet it did.

And the next one's
aimed at you!

How does this
keep happening?

Stop, please.

Oh, you don't like it when I get
lemons in my eye, huh?

Well, I ain't going to stop
until you talk.

Aah!

[all scream]

My partner needs backup.

I got to help him.
I got to... I got to...

get tough.

You had enough?

I'll take it from here.

Tell us who dropped
the lollipop,

or you're going
to lolly jail!

No, please.
I'll tell you everything.

I don't know
who threw the cup,

but the lollipop
was Tilly Green's.

[panting]

Tilly?

Did you see that?

Oh, my heart's racing.

Tough break about
your sister, though.

She's our new lead.

An unfortunate twist.

But justice,
like my lemon juicy eyes,

is blind.

I really can't see, Keys.

-Which way? Is that you?
-Oh, follow my voice. Yeah.

Tilly Green, it's unfortunate
we have to meet

under such
circumstances.

We're just going to ask you
a couple of questions.

Yeah. Questions.

Well, officers, I'd be happy
to cooperate.

However, I must insist that
my lawyer, Saxon, be present.

-Why, I ought to--
-Easy, partner.

At 1300 hours, we found this
piece of litter on the street.

And I got a witness that places
you at the scene of the crime.

My lawyer says I don't
got to say nothing.

Ah! Confess!

We know the lolly's yours.
Don't play dumb!

-Is that too much?
-No, no, I love the energy.

Confess!

Whoa, okay, okay.

I admit the lollipops
were mine.

I was Benny's supplier,
all right.

It was a pretty good racket,
too.

Benny got more customers,

and I got to watch my friends
enjoy the lollies.

But if one of them
ended up on my street,

that is out of my hands.

I'm sorry,
but I'm not the litterbug.

-What do we do now?
-I don't know.

I already knocked everything
off the desk.

Maybe do it again.

[yells]

If there are no further
questions, I'll be on my way.

All right, Tilly,
you're free to go.

Listen, Cricket, there are
cameras all over the city.

They'll tell you
what you're looking for.

But I must warn you,
trust no one,

-especially not your partner.
-What?

Are you saying
what I think you're saying?

That Officer Keys
is the litterbug?

She's gone.

We're so close.

We can't let this litterbug
slip through our fingers.

You're right, Keys.

We can't.

Well, that litterbug
just boils my blood!

[gasps]
The security cameras.

Say, Keys, why don't you
go cool off.

Get us a couple
of coffees.

Yeah, a bunch of hot coffee
will cool me down.

[laughs]

All right, got to act fast.

You can't hide your dirty crimes
from me, Keys.

Just need to see the footage
from the last few days.

There he is,
you dirty rascal.

Ooh, look,
and there I am.

Ha, still got it.

That dang cup just wouldn't
stay on my head.

Oh, me again.

Uh, I think I came back
for that.

Oh. Oh, no, no, no.

No. Oh, no.

Oh, this can't be right.

The banana.

No! This means that...

I'm the litterbug!

Huh?

Oh, Officer Keys.

How-- How long have you
been standing there, partner?

Long enough.

I know it looks bad,
but I can explain.

It's just like you said,
Cricket.

You go easy on this litterbug

and they'll keep littering
and littering

until we're up to our eyes
in trash.

Twenty years to life,
remember?

Don't you dare.

Aah!

[panting]

Keys, we can talk this out.

Just you stop running first,
then I'll stop running.

I didn't know
I was littering.

That's basically the same
as being innocent, right?

[grunts]

A repeat offender.

Aah!

[squawks]

-Hi, Cricket!
-Aah! Tilly?

What are you doing here?

I have my own life.

Tilly, Officer Keys found out
that I'm the litterbug,

and now he's after me.

Well, I told you
not to trust him.

But I wouldn't worry
too much.

Keys is usually pretty nice.

I'm sure he'll be understanding
about it.

Well, I might have convinced him
to cast away his humanity.

Oh. Then you should
run for your life,

because he's right behind you.

What? Aah!

-[both panting]
-Bye, Cricket.

[panting]

Aah!

[screaming]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Oh, boy.

There's nowhere
left to run, partner.

It's time to go
to the station.

Keys, don't do this.
It's not like you.

You said being tough was
the only way to get results.

I know, but I was wrong.

You were right
from the beginning.

Everyone makes mistakes.

And maybe sometimes
going easy on people

is the right thing to do.

That's how everyone
should be treated.

Do you really believe that?

Yes. I do.

Oh, thank goodness.

Being tough
is so exhausting.

Can you imagine if I had
to be like that all the time?

Yeah, that'd be horrifying.

Say, do you mind if I move
just a little closer?

-Oh, of course.
-Oh, that's much better.

Thanks for being
so understanding, Keys.

And I really appreciate
you letting me off the hook.

Uh, what's this now?

I'll go easy on you,

but I can't let you off
scot-free.

Isn't this great?

It's like we're still
working together.

Well, Cricket,
you kept your word.

You are cleaning up
the streets.
