03x12 - Toys in the Hood

Post by bunniefuu »

The purpose of
today's field trip

Is to see some of
the natural flora
and fauna

Here in dakota.

Who can tell me
what flora and fauna
are?

Daisy.

Flora are plants
and fauna are animals.

Very good.
And can you tell me

What kinds of animals
we might find
in dakota?

There are members
of the cervidae family

Like deer,
and members of
the rodentia family

Such as squirrels
and raccoons.

Excellent, daisy.

I can tell you
what kind of
animal's on this bus--

Can you say
teacher's pet?

Yo, richie,

Are there any giant
monkeys in this part
of dakota?

[Clang clang clang
clang clang]

What in the world--

[Brakes screech]

Students: aah!

Get us off here!
Aah!

Definitely looks like
major fauna to me.

What it looks like
is some extracurricular
activity for static and gear.

Aah!
Go, run!

[Screaming]

Teacher: quickly--
everyone this way!

Daisy,
stay close to me.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Keep your paws
to yourself,
you big ape!

Keep this up,
and you can try out
for the school band!

♪ Go, homey,
it ain't easy ♪

♪ This is w*r,
it ain't easy ♪

♪ Go, homey ♪

Hey, if you're
lookin' for a playmate,

Follow me!

Aah!

I heard that.

Uh-oh. Crunch time!

Ung, gifted,

And about-to-be-squashed
hero,

Now would be the time!

Man: I'll take that offer.

Superman, groaning:
uhh...

Need some help

Getting this monkey
off your back, static?

Superman?

Thanks.
Now it's my turn.

Thanks, superman.

You're welcome.

Maybe what you need
is a little diversion!

How 'bout a one-way trip
to the junkyard?

[Clang]
aah!

Thanks again,
superman!

No problem.
I'm glad I got here
in time.

Hey, you two
go ahead and chat.

I'll be just fine.

Gear, you ok, bro?

No. My one chance
to tag team
with superman,

And I miss it
'cause I bust my ankle!

Nothing's broken.
Just looks like
a bad sprain.

You'll probably
have to keep off it
for a few days.

Whoa! I just had
my ankle x-rayed
by superman!

I'm never gonna
wash it again.

I have to go,
but you two keep up
the good work.

Hmm. Wonder where
he's off to.

Hope he didn't
leave the heater on

At the fortress
of solitude.

Yeah. He'd have to
start calling it

The giant puddle
of solitude.
Ha ha!

So what do you think
superman's doing
in dakota?

Beats me.
Here's another
good question:

What do you think
that
was doing
in dakota?

We got props
from superman!

Can you
believe that?

And nobody around
to hear it.

True, true.
Maybe next time.

Be real.
Superman's an all-star.

He doesn't have time
to hang out in dakota.

Trust me--that's the last
we'll see of him
for a long while.

Virgil, richie!

I want you to meet
mr. Clark kent.

He's a reporter
for
the daily planet.

Hey, I know you.
My pops reads your
articles all the time.

Yesterday, superman
shows up, and now you.

Is this, like,
metropolis week
in dakota?

No. Actually,
superman is the reason
I'm here.

Mr. Kent's
writing an article

About superman's
fight with
that giant monkey.

Well, I guess superman
did help out static...
A little.

That's static.
S-t-a--

So you two
saw the fight?

Yeah, we saw.

Really?
Where were you
when it happened?

Where--wha--we--
uh--

Du--wha--uh--

See, now,
that's a good question...

Where were we
during the...

Probably why
you're a good reporter--

Because you ask questions
that...are...like

That. Good.

Can I quote you two
on that?

Mr. Kent,
if you want to
talk to someone

Who really
knows the deal,
ask miss moore.

She was there,
too.

Miss moore!

Miss moore!

That's weird.

[School bell rings]

That's class.

We gotta go,
mr. Kent.

Very nice to have
met you all.

Thanks
for everything.

Bye! See you later.

You've been more
help than you know.

Thought I saw you
ducking in here,
darcy.

Do you mind, kent?

I could use
a little privacy
while I fix my face.

I've been having trouble
with my left eye.

The things a girl does
to keep up her looks.

Cute. What are you
doing in dakota?

A tip from superman.
He told me toyman
was here.

I couldn't figure out
why until now.

I thought changing
my identity and moving
to a new city

Would throw him
off my trail,

But toyman's obsessed.

I guess I knew
sooner or later
he'd find me.

Maybe I can help you
get away.

No. I've been
running from toyman

Ever since he gave me
a personality.

Now, for the first time,
I have a life.

I'm not going to
give it up for him

[Heavy thudding]
or anyone else.

Something wrong?

Just stay here.
I'll be right back.

[Thud thud]

[Commotion]

Is that what
I think it is?

It depends.

Do you think it's
a giant bouncing clown?

Aah!
Ha ha ha ha ha!

Ah ha ha ha ha ha!

Aah!

You have got
to be kidding me!

Superman!

You're relocating here?

Just thought
I'd lend a hand.

I don't think
I need any help.

This is almost
too
easy.

Whoa!

Uh...maybe I spoke
too soon.

Come on, static.
Let's put away the toys.

Send for
reinforcements.
We need backup.

Oh!

[Grunts]

Static!
Daisy!

This clown posse
really is insane!

Ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha!

[Struggling]
hey!

Uhh!

That ought to
take the bounce
out of your step.

Let's see how funny
you think a couple
thousand volts are.

Aah!

Nice work.

Not quite.

One of
these crazy clowns

Got away
with a student.

A student?

I thought
he was after...

After who?

She's gone.

Who's gone?

Miss moore.

What's she
got to do with this?

Do you know
where she lives?

It'd be on file
in the office.

Take me there,

And I'll explain
everything on the way.

Toyman:
oh, yay! Miss daisy
is finally awake

And ready to play.

Who...
What are you?

I'm toyman.

I'm so happy
to meet you.

Uhh! Uhh!

Let me go!

I'm sorry.
I can't do that.

Miss moore, tell him
to let me go!

Sorry, daisy.

He's brought you here
at my request.

What? You're
a part of this?

Not just part.

Darcy here
is at the very heart

Of everything
that's about to happen.

"Darcy"?

Yes, darcy.

My most perfect
robot toy.

But she doesn't want
to be a doll anymore.

She wants to be human.

She wants to be...you!

[Gasp]

Let the game begin.

Uhh! Uhh!

[Whistle blows]

[Toot toot]

A living robot?

Yes, and toyman
is obsessed with her.

If we can find her,

We might be able
to find out

Where he's taken
daisy.

Wonder what's in here?

Nice trick.

Yeah, when you can't
punch 'em down,
you improvise.

Everything
for the well-dressed robot.

Wonder who made
all this stuff?

It has a serial number.

If we can trace it,
it might lead us
to toyman.

Gear has a database

That could find
a cotton ball
in a blizzard.

Static to gear.
You copy?

The memory transfer grid
is set and functioning.

What are you gonna do?

This machine will make
an exact nani-duplicate

Of a person
for darcy to inhabit.

It was up to her
to choose the person

She wanted me
to replicate.

That's why I disguised
myself as a teacher

And took a job
at the high school,

To find the perfect person
for my new self.

I found you.

Perfect? Me?
No way!

I missed half the questions
in chem lab,

And don't ask me
how to spell "mitochondria."

I'm ready to begin.

[Toot]

Miss moore, please!

Miss moore
doesn't exist anymore.

Soon you can
just call me daisy.

♪ Can't leave it alone,
wild like a storm ♪

♪ Can't leave it alone ♪

♪ Can't fight the power ♪

♪ Clap your hands,
we're toe to toe ♪

♪ We're hope to hope ♪

♪ Can't fight the power ♪

♪ Can't fight the power ♪

[Gasp]

The transfer of the dna
is flawless.

In a moment,
I will finally have
my living doll.

I don't think so,
toyman!

Boo-yah!

Told you gear
would figure out

Where toyman
was holed up.

Superman!

Uh, that's superman
and static.

Honest, what's a brother
gotta do to get
a little recognition?

You deserve
a paddling.

Aah!

Does this guy
have any toys
that are just toys?

[Toot]

[Ding]

She's ready!
She's ready!

I'm alive!

I'm finally alive!

You did it!
Hee!

Uhh!

Whoa, I must have
hit my head.

I'm seein' double.

Toyman, be a doll
and get rid of him.

Anything for you.

Are all supervillains
like this,

Or do you just attract
the really weird ones?

I'll handle this.

You go after--
huh!

Uh...uh...uhh!

Superman?

My soldiers aren't green
for nothin', superman.

They have
kryptonite mixed
with their plastic.

Uhh!

Toyman: your power
has no effect, either.

You see? They have
plastic mixed in
with their kryptonite,

And, as you know,
plastic is not affected
by electricity!

Kind of works out
nicely all around,
doesn't it?

Aah!

Uhh!

Toyman: I have my new
and lovely darcy,

And it's the end
of superman
and...what's his name.

This is
the best day ever!

Sorry to have to
ruin it for you.

What?! That's not
one of my toys!

No!
It's one of mine!

Uhh! Uhh!

Uhh! Uhh!

You silly little man.

Did you really think
once I had a new body

I would spend
the rest of my life
with you?

Please, darcy.

You said...
You said you loved me.

I only loved the fact
you could make me human.

[Gasp]

The girl!

So you want to play
hide and seek?

How about if we play
search and destroy?

[Static and superman
struggling]

You know, I never did like
playing toy soldiers.

Daisy: how do I get
out of here?

I gotta get some help!

Going somewhere?

Since I'm
the perfect copy,

I don't want
the original around
anymore.

It's time
to break the mold.

[Daisy struggling]

Everyone will know
you're a fake!

How? You and I
are a perfect match

Down to our dna.

But you can't
be
me!

Of course I can!

Every day while you were
in my class,

I watched
and studied you.

I'll be a better daisy
than you ever were!

Uhh!

Uhh!
Uhh!

These guys have to have

Some sort of computer chip
inside of them.

And computer chips
are ultrasensitive
to static electricity.

If I can just create
a highly charged atmosphere...

Yes!

How you feelin',
super dude?

I have
a super headache,

But I'll be ok.

You watch bubble boy.

I gotta find daisy.

Aah!

Darcy: it's useless
fighting me.

You won't
feel a thing.

Unh!

No!

Static: stop!

Aah!

Static, save me!

Huh?

Gotcha!

And you're comin'
with me, too, darcy!

But I'm not darcy!

Aah!

Static, you've
got it all wrong!

I'm the real daisy!
She's the fake!

She's lying, static!

You saw how she threw me
into that vat!

Static,
you know who I am!

Well, uh...
I, uh...

Superman: problem, static?

I hate to say it,

But I can't
tell 'em apart.

Well, maybe I can.

That's right. You've got
x-ray vision.

Go on, superman!
Do your thing!

Hmm.

"Hmm"?
What's the "hmm"?

Toyman was able
to duplicate
the real daisy

Right down to her dna.

Even I can't tell
the synthetic
from the organic.

Ha!

You mean this wannabe
gets to walk around

Pretending she's me?

Ohh! How I'd
like to punch
your lights out!

Wait a minute! Lights!

That's it!

What's it?

Every human
has an electrical aura

That surrounds them,

And I can make it
visible.

Don't move! Anybody!

Static: a slingshot
and a ping-pong ball?

What's that gonna do?

That ping-pong ball
packs enough energy

To take out
the entire block.

Trust me.
I created it.

You know, you need
a new hobby.

Hate to run,
but I'm not about to--

Uhh! Aah!

[Gasping]
what's happening to me?

Unh!

I may be a fool
for love, darling,

But I'm no dope.

I programmed
a fail-safe mechanism

In case you betrayed me...

Again.

Aah!

Even now, the nanites
are liquefying your body.

Ohh! Uh!

[Gasp]

My body!

My beautiful body!
Ohh!

And I'm the only one
with the antidote.

Help me,
my love, please.

Darcy: ohh!

Sorry, darcy,

But you just don't
play fair.

Ohh!

Ohh!

[Toyman sniffs]

[Siren]

I can't thank you enough
for saving me, superman.

Thank static.

I couldn't have done it
without him.

Hey, working with you
has been the real deal.

If you ever need
a sidekick

Or someone to watch
the fortress of solitude

While
you're out of town.

You're at the top
of the list.

Till next time.

I still can't believe
I was with
the man of steel.

Let me tell you,

There is nothing
more awesome

Than hanging
with your favorite
superhero.

Yeah, I know
just what you mean.
