[bunniefuu]

(stellar music)

Down by one.

The crowd's on their feet.

The only thing standing

between Keith and the basket,

is a very tall, very imaginary defender.

(cheering)

Keith wins again!

He fakes it!

Keith is victorious!

- Oh, out of no where here comes Hector,

he goes up for the lay-up.

(shouting)

- Ah, he gets it!

Yeah, there we go buddy!

Yeah there we go!

- Yeah, I've got some pretty sweet moves.

I'm pretty coordinated.

- Pretty coordinated or just pretty?

- Oh oh, so funny.

Tell you what,

and I'll show you what's what.

(gong vibrating)

If it isn't Manny Spamboni.

- But it is.

They call me Spamboni

I'm smooth like macaroni,

Ya better be ready 'cause

I'm smooth like spaghetti

You're name ain't a

noodle and I'm smooth like

That noodle

Well, I challenge you to a game.

You and me, one on one,

mano on mano, Manny--

- I get it, I get it, I get it Manny.

Yes, I accept your challenge.

Just name the place and the time.

Right here.

The time?

Actually let's say around three-ish

'cause I just had a tuna fish sandwich.

- I know.

- You gotta pinkie swear.

- Okay.

All right, there it is.

- Remember, you pinkie swore.

Now pardon me as I stretch.

(soft ominous music)

- [Boy] Look at that agility.

Keep it up for the challenge.

just how coordinated I am.

- [Girl] Gonna get lunch right now.

- Seriously, I'm so hungry.

(mumbling)

Hey where's Hector?

- Oh he's comin'.

(machine beeping)

- I'm so sorry about that.

Hey that looks so good!

Hey Jacques, how you doin' man?

- Oh huh!

I didn't know they had burritos.

Actually Jacques I

ordered the turkey club.

- Tough day big bro?

- His feet don't work.

- That is very true.

They don't function at all.

- Bummer this is terrible.

- I know.

- It was so weird.

You know one minute you

had all these sweet--

- I know!

And then boom I can't move around anymore.

I'm fallin' all over everything.

It's like I lost my agility.

- And on top of that you have

to play Manny one on one.

- You can't play like this.

You have to cancel the game.

- I can't, I pinkie swore.

- [All] Oh!

- Yeah you can't go back on that.

- Oh great it's an email

from Manny Spanboni

with a link to his my BIG FACE Page.

- Hello Hector and welcome to my BIG FACE.

So, how ya feelin' today Hector?

Let me guess, not so coordinated anymore?

- How does he know that?

- You're probably

wondering how I know that.

Well I have a plan for victory

that cannot be stopped!

(laughing)

Because remember Hector.

On the court

Nobody's moves are freakier

Off the court nobody's

moves are sneakier

Sneakier than I am

Sneakier than I am sneakier than I am

Sneakier than I am sneakier than I am

- Spamboni is behind this!

He stole my agility!

- But how?

- I think there's a clue in that message.

He kept saying sneakier than I.

(electricity buzzing)

So if this sneaky I snuck away.

- [All] Sneaker!

- Yes!

- I'm (mumbling) something

out of the corner of my eye.

(funky music)

Ugh!

Manny swapped my sneakers!

- That's why you're so uncoordinated!

- Wait guys, wait they're not coming off.

Wait a little help guys.

(ominous music)

(machine buzzing)

- Check it out!

- [Girl] Enter code.

- That's how these shoes function!

There has to be a code to get them off.

- Now we have to cr*ck the code.

- Okay we'll work on that

and then Jess you and Keith

just go find my game shoes okay?

- All right we'll meet you there.

- Okay sneaker?

(machine beeping)

- I'll see you later.

- I don't think that was it.

- Guys!

(upbeat music)

- Hey yo short I!

- Me?

- Come on raise your fists up!

Come on raise your fist up

Come on raise your fist up

Come on raise your fist

It's time for y'all to

put your fists in the sky

And we're gonna list all

the different reasons why

Sure I still the letter

that will bring you

A smile and help you get your fill

'Cause without that I

We never could win

We'd simply have a W N

And that wouldn't get us

to the finish my friend

Oh to the finish my friend

- I can't go in there without you!

- Why not?

- Because it's a haunted

house, it's scary in there.

- Surely you can go in there without me.

- No way.

I go through life without socks,

without deodorant, without all my teeth.

Please, please!

- All right, all right.

If you can't go in there without me,

I'll go in there with you.

- That was fun wasn't it!

- The next time we go in there,

there's one thing I wanna take with me.

- What?

- My mommy.

(soft upbeat music)

- This is something that

happens to lights sometimes.

It's starts with fl.

And I know that ICK makes the ick sound.

So it's fl-ick, flick.

And there's that bossy R at the end.

So you know that the R

sound is going to boss

that E there and make the er sound.

So fl-ick-er, flicker.

Check out flicker, it's flickering.

(soft upbeat music)

(screaming)

- Whoa he's got coordination!

(machine beeping)

- Yo.

Sweet moves Hector!

(machine beeping)

Remember I'm sneaky Hector,

sneaky like a snake.

(Manny hissing)

Hello and welcome to trash talk,

the show where we talk trash.

Today's trash talk goes out to Hector.

Today on the court

I show you where it's at yo

And you could never catch me

'Cause I'm quicker than a cat

Meow

(machine beeping)

(upbeat music)

- I'm so uncoordinated.

I can't take this anymore!

Get these shoes off!

- Hector!

- I want my agility back.

- Take it easy.

We still need the code.

I know this is a challenge

but hey, we'll get it.

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

- [Manny] Hello this is a

message from Manny Spamboni.

For more trash talk press one.

To get the secret code, press two.

(phone beeping)

We're sorry, two's not functioning.

Now more trash talk.

I'm strong like a ox

I can jump like a rabbit

I'll grab ya by your socks

And I'll drop ya like a habit

(phone beeping)

- What does that even mean?

- Things cannot get any worse.

- [Manny] And now as singing trash-ogram!

- Technically things just did.

Dear Hector why do you even try

(Mumbling) Like an eagle in the sky

Your skills are so very glorious

And today I'll be victorious

Ta-Da

(laughing)

(woman applauding)

(groaning)

- Have you noticed that

Manny keeps mentioning

these animals, like,

snakes, ox, and eagle?

Hey hey, maybe the code is animal.

- Okay well let's try it.

(machine beeping)

(machine beeping)

Well I guess it's not animal.

- Hey!

Look at the time.

I'll see ya on the court, fancy feet.

(laughing)

Everybody knows about words

With the I sound

Like fish and like ship

Let's kick it up a bit

Combine these words

with other words yes

Let me tell you a story now

There once was a catfish

that lived in a fishbowl

With some other fish

Goldfish and a starfish

by the name of Larry

And crazy Larry he

would always hang out

By this shipwreck

And the colorful rocks

that were at the bottom

Of the fishbowl yes

And inside of the shipwreck

was a treasure chest

And every time the starfish opened it

It would reveal a whole

bunch of friendship

A magical power that held

all the fish together

Together forever

Yeah

Short I

(upbeat music)

- Lipstick.

Lipstick.

I, I, I, I.

(glass breaking)

Kickoff.

Kickoff!

I, I, I, I, I, I.

Kickoff!

Shipyard.

Shipyard.

(ship honking)

Shipyard!

Dishwasher.

(bubbles bubbling)

Dishwasher.

You ready?

(machine beeping)

Aw why so uncoordinated?

- [Hector] Did you have any luck?

- We think Manny left us

clues in the names of animals.

Eagle, snake, cat, ox, rabbit.

But we still can't cr*ck it.

(laughing)

(machine beeping)

(groaning)

(machine beeping)

Yo the clock is ticking

and Manny's not missin'

Hector is about to lose

Man I just don't get it

What do these animals have

to do with Hector's shoes

They're clues and I'm

trying to decipher

What this code could be

Well maybe we just have

to put 'em in order guys

Arrange 'em different.

We got snakes

And ox

Rabbit eagle and cat

I know you're great with words

But Lisa I don't see a code on that

Can we try to first

letter of each word?

S O R C E is not a word

Stack a snake then cat and ox

Eagle maybe rabbit

Maybe

Poor Hector's going in circles again

Guys ♪

What

My bad I thought I had it

Hey I got it I got it

Snake cat ox rabbit eagle

We were so close before

If we're talking the

first letter of each word

Then S C O R E

Spells score

Timeout!
