- Interesting move, jessica,
But you'll have to do better
Than that if you want to b*at
Me in today's tournament.
Mm.
Ah!
- O-ok. Thank you, danny.
Do you mind?
- Oh, I'm sorry, hector.
Did I distract you?
- Yes. I'm trying
To concentrate. Ahem.
- Hector, you're about to
Get clobbered by your little
Sister in this game.
How does that feel?
- That feels fine, danny,
Because I'm helping her warm
Up so she can clobber
You later today
In the tournament, ok?
Ok, jess. Make your move.
-
I'm so gonna take your
Queen with my knight.
- Why did you just
Reveal your move?
You totally just gave it away.
- I didn't mean to
Let you know that.
It just came out
When I hiccupped.
- You hiccupped, and then you
Revealed your move, did you?
- Yeah.
- What a fascinating
Development.
Now if you'll excuse me.
- Whoa. What's this?
- It's one of danny rebus'
Rebuses.
"Get"and then--what's that?
- It's an old-time well,
You know, like,
With water in it.
- Of course. So
"Get well soon."
- Then a rope minus "k"?
- No, no, no. It's not a rope.
It's a knot minus the "k."
So "get well soon. Not."
What's that all about?
- It doesn't matter.
It's danny being danny.
Come on. It's your move.
-
Ah. Look at that hat
On that lady.
She looks like a lamp.
- Well, I never!
- Oh, no. A very
Beautiful lamp that
Anyone would be happy to
Have in their living room.
Uh, I'm so sorry.
- Ohh!
- What are you doing?
- I don't know.
Every time I hiccup, I
Reveal my private thoughts.
What's happening to me?
Hey, you guys!
-
Oh, oh, oh, come on, yeah!
Feel the power!
Feel the power!
Feel the power!
Yo! And plug it in!
It's electric
Electric company!
Electric company!
Electric company!
Electric company!
-
Yo, yo, yo, yo!
The power we perfected
Is electrically connected
So use it as directed
And expect to be respected
-
Just turn it on
And you will see
That you belong
In the company!
Feel the power!
- Oh, feel the power!
- Feel the power!
- Yo! And plug it in!
-
Plug it in, everybody!
-
Electric company!
Electric company!
Electric company!
-
Electric company!
- Keep going.
Almost done.
More seconds.
This is a great remedy
For the hiccups.
- Come on. Can this really
Get rid of the hiccups?
- That's what I use
To get rid of them.
Works like magic.
Of course, I've never had the
Kind of hiccups that made me
Reveal my private thoughts.
And stop. That's a minute.
- Hey, lisa. I think
Your remedy worked.
- Told you. Works every time.
-
Lisa's remedies
Are so useless.
- Sorry. Just trying to help.
- Oh, sorry. I'm sorry.
I never meant to say that.
- Oh. You know, I wouldn't
Want all my private thoughts
Revealed either.
- I'm a wreck. The tournament
Starts in hours.
What am I gonna do?
- Is there a doctor
In the house?
- I am not a doctor!
- I know that you're not a
Doctor, mr. Bamboosnirklet.
I need a doctor.
Is there a doctor
In the house?
- I am still not a doctor.
-
Oh, really?
I thought in the last
Seconds you went to medical
School, became a doctor,
And came back.
- Wow. That was kind
Of mean, sis.
- Oh, I'm sorry,
Mr. Bamboosnirklet.
- Even though I'm not a
Doctor, I can still try
To make a diagnosis.
- You mean, you could tell
Me what's wrong with me?
- Yes.
- Ok. What's your diagnosis?
- My diagnosis is that
You have the hiccups.
-
Of course I have the hiccups.
Why don't you tell me
Something I don't know?
Oh, I'm sorry,
Mr. Bamboosnirklet.
I just don't know why I
Get so cranky.
- It's because you have
The skeleckian hiccups.
- Skeleckian hiccups?
- When you hiccup, do you
Reveal what you're thinking?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, yes.
- That's very common
On my planet.
You have the
Skeleckian hiccups.
- So how do we
Get rid of them?
- You have to see a doctor.
- Well, do you have
The name of a good
Skeleckian doctor?
- Yes!
- What--what's the name?
- Dr. Pinklepurpy
Goozibindanansky.
- Wh-where's his office?
- Actually, he works
Out of a garden.
-
Oh, for crying
Out loud, I need
A doctor, not a gardner.
Oh, I'm so sorry again.
I just don't know.
- I totally understand.
Skeleckian doctors
Don't work in offices.
They work in gardens.
- Gardens?
- Yes, because most skeleckian
Medicine is herbal.
- Herbal. Oh, so you mean most
Skeleckian medicine is made
Out of plants.
- Yeah. We call them
Herbal remedies.
Sometimes, we take the leaves,
We put them in hot water,
And we make herbal tea.
- Oh, I love tea.
- So I have to drink some tea?
- Well, with the hiccup
Remedy, you actually
Eat the leaves.
- And how do they taste?
- Uh--heh--well,
Uh, they're not bad.
- Ok. So how do we
Find the doctor?
- Uh, east th street.
- Ok. Come on,
Jess. I'll take you.
Thank you.
- Sure.
- Something really
Weird just happened.
I saw danny rebus outside,
And he said, "I'm going to
"b*at jessica in the first
Round of the tournament.
Ha ha ha!"
You know, like he always does.
- Danny rebus
Doesn't scare me.
I'm toast.
Help!
- Sss, sss, sss.
- Sss, sss.
- Sss, sss.
-
So let's go
-
That's one sound to "s"
Sitting in a word
Yes, oh, yes,
That's one sound to "s"
Sitting in a word
Yes, oh, yes - seems
Kind of silly
That this little sound
Is anywhere we look
See, it's all around
Sometimes at the start
And also in the middle
You'll even find it
At the end of riddles
If you sit in a seat
Then you definitely
Have found it
When you soak in the sun
Then it's all around
If you ask me a question
You're just getting warm
That slippery "s"takes
All sorts of forms
In a sandwich, on a snake
Even under the stairs
Simply put, it is something
That you see everywhere
-
That's one sound to "s"
Sitting in a word
Yes, oh, yes, that's
One sound to "s"
Sitting in a word
- "S"?
- Yes, as in start.
- Yeah. Let's start this race.
- Oh, dear. Look out
For the smoke.
-
Thanks, pal.
- Oh, drat.
- What?
- Spikes.
- Spikes? Now we have a flat.
- Yes, and we're losing speed.
Fortunately, we have a spare.
- Spare tire? Brilliant.
- Thanks. Hey, we just won.
- Sweet.
-
- Ha ha ha!
Yeah.
- Hop on the seesaw with
Me so we can seesaw.
Why?
- Hoo hoo hoo!
I just can't believe...
Ha ha ha!
Seesaw, seesaw, seesaw,
Seesaw, seesaaw!
- Today on "the big
Face face off"it's
Lisa versus manny.
- In this duel, I'll use
The zzz sound of "s".
- And I will take the
Sss sound of "s".
- You have to b*at me at
One of my own games.
Try this laser.
- I will stop it
With a sunflower.
- You'll never
Tolerate my music.
- I've been waiting to
Wear my earmuffs.
Watch out for the quicksand!
- Throw me a rope.
- I didn't hear what you said.
- Please.
- I don't have a rope,
But I have this stinky sock.
- I lose.
- So what's happened so far?
- Time for the
Chess tournament.
- It's my move.
And now I'll reveal my
Thoughts so that everyone
Knows what I'm thinking. - Did you just
Reveal your private thoughts? I'll
Make a diagnosis, tell you what's wrong.
You're in trouble.
- Hey, you guys!
- This remedy is great.
It's gonna make your
Hiccups go away.
- I love this remedy.
No more hiccups.
- This remedy rocks.
-
This remedy is ridiculous!
- Oh, no!
- I need a diagnosis.
Someone tell me what's wrong!
- It's the skeleckian hiccups!
- Oh, no! Hiccups from
Another planet!
- And now for the remedy.
Head to the garden and
Eat some special leaves.
-
The diagnosis is in
We've got to help jess
-
She'll munch
On some leaves
-
And then win at chess
-
Yum
-
- Hello?
- Anyone here?
- Hello, hello?
Is there a doctor
In the garden?
- I'm a doctor in the garden.
Love these.
They're good for your kidneys.
Breathe in deeply, ok?
Now breathe
Out slowly, ok?
-
Where do you keep that thing,
In the freezer?
Oh, I'm sorry, doctor.
I meant no disrespect.
It's the hiccups.
- Oh, believe me.
I'm used to people revealing
Their private thoughts.
Now say, "ooh."
- Ooh?
- Yes. Ooh. I know on your
Planet you say, "ahh."
- Yeah.
- Do you know on the planet
Flinka they say, "eee"?
- Really?
- Yes. And on the planet
Ongledorf, they say, "hecken
Flecken la la whoo, whoo,
Whoo, whoo, whoo!"
-
Yeah. You're kooky.
Oh, I'm sorry.
- It's true. I am kooky.
Love these!
They're good for my nose.
Now say, "ooh."
- Ooh.
- I am ready to
Make my diagnosis.
- Is it
The skeleckian hiccups?
- It is the
Skeleckian hiccups!
- Can you help her, doctor?
- Yes. I can give her a
Remedy to relieve her hiccups.
Come with me.
- Hmm.
- Here we are.
Now eat two leaves every
Day for a week, or else
They'll come back.
- Do they taste good?
- No. They taste terrible.
Now eat them.
Eat them.
Yes.
- Eww! They're awful.
- Swallow them.
You will be relieved of the
Hiccups in exactly two hours.
Here's a week's supply.
- The tournament starts in an
Hour, and I have to play my
First round with the hiccups.
- Against danny rebus.
- Danny rebus?
He's a patient of mine.
He had the skeleckian
Hiccups last week.
- Wait, wait, wait.
Danny knew all along
About the hiccups?
- And he knows how long
The remedy takes to work.
Of course!
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
Check this out.
- That's pretty cool!
- Thanks, man.
You see that he went to the
Tournament director and had it
Arranged to play you first.
- Very sneaky.
Now he'll b*at me
In the first round,
And he'll brag about it
For the rest of the year.
- Thank you, doctor.
- Don't mention it.
Ah, the glitter tree.
I love it!
Good for my hair.
Weeks ago, I was
Completely bald.
Come.

You can recognize "m"
'Cause it looks
Like two mountains
"M"
I'm a mammal

Feeling about it.

Good luck, jess.
- Hello, jessica.
- Hello, danny.
- And now we begin the first
Match of the tournament.
- And your last, jessica.
- Smile.
Oh, sorry.
- Each player will have a
Total of one hour on the chess
Clock to make all of
His or her moves.
Jessica, choose.
-
Oh, I was hoping for black.
- Good to know. -
Too bad. I
Was hoping for white.
- Well, which is it?
- You'll never know, will you?
- Was one of
Those hiccups fake?
-
You think you know
What I'm thinking
But you don't
Now do you?
Yeah, I'm looking
Straight at you
And I see right
Through you
You think that
You're so smart
You picked a little trick up
But now I got
You guessing
Which one's the
Real hiccup
So take a guess
You will find
While you're guessing,
You'll be stressing
Because I'm messing
With your mind
Now I'm gonna att*ck
Now I'm gonna fall back
One of them's
The real one
The other is the fake one
You're gonna
Have to guess
So go ahead and take one
I'm going for your queen
Is that what I mean?
I'm coming with my knight
Does that seem right?
You're in a little tizzy
You feel a little dizzy?
I'm trying
To reach you, danny
But your line's
A little busy
You're gonna
Make the move
Is that the way you
Want to play?
I think you may win
But not today
You feeling ok?
Because you look a wreck
Oh, by the way
You're in check
Hey, you took my queen
Oh, that was so mean
But you know what else?
You took the bait
Checkmate
- Jessica, you will
Advance to the next round.
Danny, I'm afraid
You've been eliminated.
- That was not fair at all.
- Danny, after
All you've done?
She b*at you fair and square.
-
I love to win, especially
Against danny,
And for the record, that
Was a real hiccup.
-
I hate losing,
Especially to jessica.
Oh, no!
The skeleckian
Hiccups are back.
I should have finished all
My ringendorfen zalia
Marilus leaves.
-
Oh, that reminds me.
It's time.
- Mm-hmm.
- Have fun.
- Yuck.
-
- Mmm.
- You know what I don't like?
I don't like silent letters.
I find them really annoying.
Like, when a "b"
Comes after an "m".
It's dumb.
What's the point?
I mean,
The b's just hanging
Around there for no reason.
I say thumbs down to "mb,"
And so with a stomp, I will
Flip the "mb"to an "mp."
Now, see, that "p"is
Doing something--thumps.
I can--i can hear that "p".
Now I can make words
Like--like--like...
Now I'll take the words...
And put them in the dump.
Oh, yeah
I'm pumped
I feel so much better.
- Oh, man. Here's something my
Little cousin does
When he's mad.
Let's sound it out.
Sss, ttt.
Sssttt.
Stoh. Stoh?
Or is it stah?
Let's keep going and
See what happens.
Next up is "mp."
Mmmppp.
Mmmpppsss.
So it's either
Stohmps or stahmps.
I've never heard of stohmps,
But I've definitely heard
Of stahmps, and that's what
My cousin does when he's mad.
He stomps his feet.
Stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp.
- Hello, josephine.
Are you raising money
For your school?
- Yes, mr. Mump.
Would you like to buy a stump?
- I'd love to, but I
Don't really need a stump.
- How about this champion?
- I don't have room
For a champion.
- I'm stumped.
Do you want to look in here
And find something, mr. Mump?
- Oh.
I'll take this blimp!

Blimp for mrs. Mump?

Explode, and I can't cr*ck
The code to get out.

You know what I'm saying?
