02x09 - Dead Broke

Post by bunniefuu »

I'm sick of you always touching my stuff!

Yeah? Well, I'm sick of your face!

Hey! Close the window!
You know I hate fighting when it's drafty.

-It ain't open.
-Well, then where's that wind coming from?

-Whoa!

A g-g-ghost!

Boo.

-Chalice?

So it's true. You really are a ghost.

I told you so. Now fork it over.

Ghost?
How many ghosts you know can do this?

So, not a ghost.

Hmm. Would you say
that you're half a ghost?

Well, I'd say you're half right.

But keep it under your straw, boys.
Mum's the word. It's a secret.

So, you got any ghost powers?

Ooh, yeah!

Hmm. I'd show ya, but what's in it for me?

Well…

I can fly.

Whoa!

I can disappear.

-What?
-Huh?

-I can pick stuff up.
-Whoa.

-I can pass through stuff.

What else? What else? Oh! I can do this!

And I can possess people.

My name is Mugman.

I'm a weenie who's afraid of everything.

Honk, honk.

My name Is Cuphead.

My straw is bent,
and I ain't too worried about anything.

Yes! He says all of that.

Neat.

Hey! You ding-dongs wanna grab
some ice cream?

-My treat.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah!

-There you go.

Enjoy your flavors of the day!

Yay!

That'll be one dollar.

Sorry, I don't accept damaged currency.

But that's all we have.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

I'm afraid the flavor of the day is

goodbye!

Oh nuts.

I really had my heart set on ice cream.

Say, I just thought of a way we could get
all the ice cream we could ever want!

Oh yeah?

Yeah, yeah! Huddle up! So first…

Until tomorrow, dear, sweet The Theater.

Who's there?

-Oh, do excuse me.

Ghost removers!

-They scare 'em…
-We snare 'em.

Are you having any paranormal issues?

Bravo, bravo!

Wonderful job, boys.

That'll be 25 cents, please.

It's the perfect scam.

You go in and haunt the joint,
then we come along and un-haunt it.

Boys, we got ourselves a gold mine.

With extra sprinkles.

Ghost removers.

Yay.

Ghost removers.

Definitely got enough for ice cream now.

-I guess we're done scamming.
-Unless you want those extra sprinkles.

-Yeah, yeah, yeah!
-That's the spirit.

Now, to find one last sucker.

Ooh, this next house is creepy.

Half the work's done already.

See you in a minute, ghost removers.

Hmm.

Oy!

This place is deserted.

Yikes.

Hmm.

Belinda,

Bedelia,

Bonnie,

Boo-Boo.

Ooh, what's that?

"We are the Birnbaum quadruplets."

"Say our names to release our spirits."

Yeah, right.

Well, this place was a bust.
Guess we'll have to find another house.

They're gone.

Oh…

You hear that?
That must be the lady of the house.

That's our cue.

I guess we'll let ourselves in.

Ghost removers!

Ugh. Kind of a dump.

They scare 'em, we--

-Whoa!

Good job, Chalice.

Nothing to worry about, ma'am,
just a falling chandelier.

We see this kind of thing all the time.

Yoo-hoo! Miss Ghost!

Come out, come out, wherever you are.

Ow!

The old
floatin' furniture routine.

Good idea, Chalice.

Oh no! Look out!

We better get out of here.

-Oh no!

Don't hurt us!

All right, Chalice.
Enough already! Now take--

-Ow!
-Take it easy!

Yeah! That one hurt.

-Ow.

Jeez, Chalice is really
laying it on thick.

Cuphead? Look.

But if Chalice
is in that painting,

then that means this house really is…

Haunted.

So these are real g-g-ghosts?

Ya-huh.

This is terrible!

I just wanted ice cream.

We're the g-g-ghost removers.

Are-- Are you having
any p-p-paranormal issues?

Why, yes!

We've been trapped
in that painting for 100 years.

Waiting for someone to take our places.

Can you help with that?

All right, you let our friend
out of that painting this instant!

Oh, we couldn't possibly.

It's our turn to go out into the world
and have some fun.

Do you have any idea what it's like

to be trapped in the same house
with your sibling day in and day out?

Yes.

Good! Then you'll be used to it,

'cause whoever's in the painting
at the stroke of midnight

stays trapped in there
for the next 100 years.

-That's in four minutes.

Now, listen here, lady.
We're gonna get our--

Cuphead!

Chalice!

Cuphead! I was just--

Come to Mama!

Bonnie!

Oh no!

You broke it, you idiot!

We still have three more.
That should be plenty.

Well, it would seem
that there's only one frame left,

but it's still big enough
for the two of you.

Where'd Chalice go?

See you in 100 years!

Uh-oh.

I got a lot of plans
for these next 100 years,

and I don't wanna spend 'em
trapped in a painting.

Thanks for getting me out, boys.

Whadda ya say we put
all this behind us and get ice cream?

Ooh! With extra sprinkles.

Hey, wait a minute.
Where's our piggy bank?
