02x30 - One Bad Apple

[bunniefuu]

- Ok. So here are your words.

A western is a story set in the

West with cowboys and horses.

Positive.

People who are positive always

See the good side of things.

Negative.

When someone is negative,

They only see the bad things.

It's the opposite of positive.

A conflict is a problem between

Two or more people.

Confident people feel strong

And good about themselves.

So we have...

Watch out for them

In today's show.

[Shock beatboxing]

- And grabbing that giraffe

Doubled-backed with laughter

We could live happily,

Horribly ever after

- [Imitates expl*si*n]

- Oh, nice one, guys.

- Hey, danny,

What's going on, man?

- Isn't it funny? I was just

About to ask you the same thing.

- Oh, we're rehearsing for our

Show tonight--the rap battle.

- Oh! I see.

So I guess you decided to ask

Mario to be your partner

And not me.

- Oh, uh, sorry, danny. Did we

Talk about being partners?

- No, no. I guess I should

Have brought it up,

But instead I just waited by my

Phone, waited for it to ring.

But it never did.

I thought my phone was broken.

You know, I guess it's not

My phone that's broken.

It's my heart.

- You know, shock, if he really

Wants to take my spot--

- No, no, no, no.

The damage is done!

I guess I'll just have to enter

The rap battle all by myself.

And you look out

Because I have skills.

And those skills are mad!

- Well, this should be

Interesting.

Hey, p.j., You're coming

Tonight, right?

- I don't know, man.

- What do you mean,

You don't know?

- Believe me, dude,

I want to come,

But I got to finish up this

Story for my writing class

Back at home.

Look. This is all I got.

Check it out.

- "The"? W-well, that's

A good start.

- Dude, this assignment is

Driving me nuts.

I mean, our teacher's

Trying to prove that

You can write a story

Taking place anywhere, right?

She had all the kids pull

A place out of a hat.

You know, and one kid gets

To write about the moon.

Another kid gets to write

A story on a river.

Ha ha. What do I get?

A refrigerator!

That's right. I have to write

A story that takes place

In a refrigerator.

Anybody have any ideas?

[Crickets chirping]

Well, how about

A little help, guys?

- What do you mean?

- You know, you know.

The screaming thing. Do it.

- Oh, ok. Hey, you guys!



- Electric company

- 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!

Get connected,

Electric company!

It's electric,

Electric company!

Get connected,

Electric company!

- Yo, yo, yo, yo!

The power we perfected

Is electrically connected

- Go, go...

- 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,

Feel the power!

- Oh, feel the power!

- Feel the power!

- Yo! And plug it in...

- Plug it in, everybody!

- Feel the power!

- Yo! And plug it in...

Electric company!

Electric company!

Electric company!

- A story that takes place

In a refrigerator?

That's kind of weird.

- Yeah.

- This is totally weird.

Why couldn't I write something

Fun, like a western?

- I love westerns.

- You see what I mean?

- You know, with like...

[Deep voice]

Old towns, and cattle

And cowboys on horseback.

- Yee-haw!

- [Regular voice]

That would have been amazing.

- It would have been amazing,

But I'm still stuck in

The fridge.

- P.j., I can help you.

Hey, guys, go ahead and get

Ready for tonight.

We'll figure something out.

- Thanks.

- Ohh...

- Bye.

- Good luck.

- Can I go, too, please?

- Oh, very funny.

You know, I am confident

We can figure this out.

I'm just sure of it.

- I'm glad you're confident

Because I'm sure not.

- Well, I was thinking, if you

Want to write a western,

Then just write a western.

- In a refrigerator?

- Sure. It's weird,

But weird could be good.

"Weird could be good"? What?

Weird could be good.

Yeah!

[Deep gravelly voice]

Cold creek, colorado.

Without a doubt, it was the

Chilliest town in the old west.

But when it came to the good

Folks who lived there,

Well, you couldn't find

Anyplace warmer.

Our story begins with

Sheriff frank,

An honest fellow

With one simple rule.

- If you don't have

Something nice to say,

Don't say anything at all.

Isn't that right,

Deputy pickles?

- It sure is. In cold creek,

We only use words

That are positive.

- Yup. Good words that make

Folks feel good, like...

- Howdy, sheriff frank.

- Howdy, mary lou.

Lovely day.

- It's beautiful.

Cold but not freezing.

- How's everything

At the schoolhouse?

- Everything is wonderful.

The children are napping.

So lovely when they sleep.

- I do agree.

Howdy, old pop.

- Good morning, sheriff.

I do hope you come

By the general store

And have a juice.

- Bonjour.

The juice is delicious today.

Hee hee!

- I reckon deputy pickles and I

Will be by later,

But right now we got

To head to the crisper

And wrangle some onions.

Let's ride, pickles.

[Pickles makes neighing

And nickering noises]

[Deputy pickles making clopping

Noises]

- [Regular voice]

All right. Now, this

Feels like a western.

- Yeah, it does.

Now, all you have to do is add

Some conflict,

You know, some trouble for

The characters.

- Yeah. Usually these westerns

Always have somebody that's bad

And causing trouble.

- Mm-hmm.

- But everybody in this town

Is so positive.

- You know, what if--

- What--

- No, you go.

- No, no. Go ahead. No, no...

- No, you go. No, I insist.

- No, no. I mean,

It's gonna be--

All right. Fine. Listen,

What if we have somebody

That's not a positive character?

- Oh, yeah, like

A negative character,

Someone who always says

Bad things.

- Yes! Yes!

[Clears throat]

[Deep gravelly voice]

Folks at cold creek thought

That their town would be

Peaceful and positive forever.

But that all changed the very

Same afternoon

Because while

The sheriff and the deputy

Were off wrangling onions,

A stranger came to town.

[Hawk calls]

- Howdy. It seems like

A nice town.

- We'll never find a nicer one.

- And it is so wonderful to

Welcome a new neighbor.

- Especially a tomato like you.

[Cow moos]

- What did you call me?

- Old pop doesn't have his

Glasses on.

He is an apple, pop.

- Oh. My mistake.

- Do I look like a tomato

To you?

Where I come from, you call

An apple a tomato, you've

Made yourself an enemy.

[Birds calling]

- Enemy? What a negative word.

- Well, if you want an enemy,

You've got one

Because I'm going to make life

In this town miserable.

- Sheriff frank, help!

[Makes short "e"sound]

- Hey, you short "e"

- Eh, eh-eh

- Eh-eh-ell

- Ok, you ring that

Be-eh-eh, eh-eh-eh-ell

- Eh, eh-eh

- So all of you can...

- Now, let me scream

No, yell

That short "e"is best

Standing tall as it takes

It will never need a rest

In the middle of a word,

It will always pass the test

When you need it most

To cast a spell

Grab your pencils,

Your pens...

The time isset

For you to ring that bell

Eh, eh-eh-ell

- Eh, eh-eh

- Eh, eh-eh

- Yo, short "e"

Come and ring that bell

- "Eh, eh..."

Cobweb!

[Blows]

Ted?

[Record needle scratches]

- Yo.

- Ted!

- Coach, we're losing. You got

To send in a better batter.

- Got it.

- Bitter up.

- I'm sick of this thing...

All right.

- No, he's a bitter batter.

We need a better batter.

- Oh, of course.

Butter up.

- That's a butter batter.

We need a better batter.

- Settle down, coach. I'm on it.

- Come on!

- Batter up!

- Cake batter's the best.

- Finally!

- What's up, everybody?

It's time for

Short vowel sounds.

Let's go.

- Short u

- Up, up

Come on, everybody,

Get up and dance

- Short a

- Aaa, clap, get up

You know you got to dance

And clap

- Short I

- Iii, kick

Kick up your heels

You know you love

How it feels

When you dance

And clap like that

Oh, yeah

Short e, eee

Step, step to the left,

Then kick to the right

Jump up and down

And clap times

- Short o

- Ooo

- Stop

- Now kick up your heels

And dance and shout

And you don't have to stop

'Cause we're singing about

We're singing about,

We're singing about

Short vowel sounds

- All right. So now your story

Has some conflict.

- [Regular voice]

That's right. A negative

Apple in a positive town.

- So what's next?

- [Clears throat]

[Deep gravelly voice]

The people of cold creek

Were in shock.

They had never heard words

Like this before.

- Hey, milk, your sell-by date

Has long past. You smell...

Rotten.

- Please! Don't speak that way

In front of the children.

- He scares me.

[Slurping]

- That juice was disgusting.

- [Gasp]

- I sure hope sheriff frank

Gets back soon.

- Me, too.

- Hey, peach, you're the pits.

Heh heh. Got him.

[Crickets chirp]

Don't you get it?

You have a pit. Your sense

Of humor is terrible.

- I am confident that sheriff

Frank can stop this apple.

- Everywhere he went,

The bad apple spoke nothing

But negative words.

All those negative words

Were polluting the crisp

And refreshing air

Of cold creek.

But then the sheriff and deputy

Rolled back into town.

- [Clop clop]

[Deputy pickles

Makes neighing noises]

- "Awful"?

"Horrible"?

"Disgusting"?

- Oh, no.

- I understand you've been

Saying some negative

Things around here.

- Well, somebody

Called me a tomato.

- Be that as it may, we like

To keep things positive here

In cold creek.

- Well, I think that's idiotic.

- Oh, no.

[Children crying]

- Looks like we got a conflict

On our hands.

This fridge ain't big enough

For the both of us.

- I was thinking the same thing.

- Why don't you fellas have

A showdown?

The sheriff's positive words

Against the apple's

Negative words.

- That's a mighty fine idea.

[Apple chuckles]

- You sound pretty confident.

But what happens if I win?

- If you win, I'll leave town.

You can have my sheriff's star.

- No!

- Ohh!

- But if I win, you leave on

The horseradish you rode in on.

Deal?

- Deal.

[Cow moos]

- If you want to tell

A story about something

That already happened,

Then you'll need "ed."

Put "ed"at the end of a verb

And you're instantly

Telling a story

About something

That already happened.

It's that easy!

Now available in grape, cherry,

Strawberry, and chicken.

[Bawk]

- When you want to tell

A story

- [Beatboxing]

- About something that already

Happened

You can use "ed"

- "Ed"

- At the end of the word

- "Ed"at the end

Of the word

- Together!

- When you want to tell

A story

About something that already

Happened

You can use "ed"

- "Ed"

- At the end of the word

- "Ed"at the end

Of the word

- Yeah!

- Word.

- May I go surfing now?

Now may I go surfing?

- Arr! Me ship.

- Now may I go surfing?

[Dog barking]

- Ok...

Now may I please go surfing?

- Go for it.

- Whoo-hoo!

All right!

- What's the game today?

- Um, I don't know.

- How about saying

Everything in

The past tense?

- Like adding "ed"to the end

Of every word.

- Watch this. Hee-haw!

I acted like a donkey.

- Oh, nice. Oh, I got one.

[Snort]

- You snorted like a pig.

- Yup.

- Nice snort. Ok.

[Meow]

- Meowed like a cat.

Ok, how about this one?

[Aroo]

- Oh! Trumpeted like

An elephant.

[All laugh]

- You know it! Ha ha!

- That'll work.

- Old school...

- Right about now

- Old school

- Come on, new school

- We want the old school

And the new school

On the dance floor

The classic ending for

A western.

The showdown at high noon.

- [Regular voice]

That's right. Now,

The only thing left to do

Is write it.

[Deep gravelly voice]

It was moments before

High noon in cold creek.

The sun was a-blazin'.

The townsfolk were nervous.

And down on main street,

A frankfurter and an apple

Prepared to face off.

They both looked confident.

[Echoing whistle]

[Deputy pickles beatboxing]

- Ready?

- Ready.

- Draw.

- Where do I start?

Oh, this is dreadful

You want some negative words,

I got a handful of rhymes

That are terrible and wicked

- And I can make the terrible

Terrific when I kick it

- W-w-wicked, I can flip it

And reverse

And make it wonderful without

The need to rehearse it

Take a head full of dreadful

And make it dreamy

I could turn your sadness

Into smiles when you see me

- Oh, leave me alone,

I think this place is awful

You're a frankfurter?,

Well, I prefer a falafel

Every waffle,

Every frozen food

Is horrendous

- And this is going from

Awesome to stupendous

When this started, see,

I knew you were resilient

- More like resentful

- See, that's brilliant

- What?

- Bad apple, give me

Another word

I can make it positive,

Rest assured

Great, what else you got on

Your mind?

- This is dumb

- It's divine, I'm delighted

You visited

- Miserable

- It's a little

Magnificent, isn't it?

- Laughter,

We can live

- Horribly

- Happily after ever

[Boom]

[Cow moos]

- Well, I'll have to tip my cap

To you, sheriff.

You won fair and square.

And it looks like I

Best be going.

- Safe travels to you.

I mean that.

- Be well, apple.

- We wish you all the best.

- Come back and visit sometime,

Cherie.

- Goodness. You mean

After all the negative

Words I've said,

You folks are still so kind

And sweet. What a lovely

Bunch of foodstuffs you are.

- Jumpin' jehoshaphat!

He's using positive words.

- Say, apple, I feel confident

You've changed.

And we don't like to hold

A grudge here in cold creek.

So if you'd love to stay, well,

We'd love to have you.

- Really?

If my arms were

A little longer...

I'd hug you.

- And so life in cold creek was

Back to normal.

And from that point forward

When it came to negative words,

All was quiet

In the western fridge.

- P.j., I think that you just

Wrote the world's first western

In a refrigerator.

- Well--ahem.

[Regular voice]

Sorry. Well, I could not

Have done it without you.

I really appreciate it. Thanks.

- Oh, sure.

Oh, and we still have time

For the rap battle.

- Do we?

- Yeah.

- Well, how about you go ahead?

There are still some things

In the ending

That I want to fix, so...

- Sounds good. See you there.

- I will see you there.

- Ha ha!

[Sighs]

- I'm annie.

And I have a plan to get

Everything I've ever wanted.

Want to know

How I'm going to do it?

Apostrophe-s.

Apostrophe-s is the best.

Say--say I want a puppy.

All I have to do

Is throw an apostrophe-s

At the end of my name,

And it becomes annie's puppy.

Oh! Aren't you cute?

Yes, you are. Ha ha!

And it's not just about puppies.

Now that I have

An apostrophe-s

At the end of my name,

Any word that comes

After it becomes mine,

Like annie's roller coaster.

Oh! I could do this all day.

Annie's castle.

Hey. I said "annie's castle,"

Not manny's.

Ahem. That's better.

How can you argue with

Apostrophe-s? You can't.

Apostrophe-s.

[Chickens clucking]

- Hey, hey, hey, hey.

What's with all the noise?

There's no need

To fight over your food.

Don't you know about apostrophe

And the letter "s"?

And this is amy's. See?

If you add an apostrophe-s

To the end of your name,

You know it's yours.

Apostrophe-s at the end

Shows possession.

Enjoy your meals, ladies.

- [Ba-kaw]

- Hmm? "Cluck's."

Chickens are very sweet.

- Aaahhh--huh?

[Reading out loud]

[Woman screams]

- [Reading out loud]

No! But I've got to howl

At the moon.

- I've got to walk around

And say "aaaahhhh."

[Bat reading out loud]

- But I don't even have hands.

- Not our problem.

[All reading out loud]

- Typical.

- I'm special agent jack bowser.

I'm trying to keep

My sunny side up,

But this carton of eggs

Is about to explode.

And I can't cr*ck

The code to get out.

Help me read this.

[Slowly reading sentence]

Stan's son said

He will say something

About susan's breakfast.

- [Deep gravelly voice]

Yes! All was quiet

In the western fridge.

But that quiet didn't last long.

Yee-haw!

Gold! I found gold!

- Gold?

- Yeah, I was up there

Prospecting in the freezer,

And I came across gold--

Bars and bars of it.

- Well, that's

Mighty impressive,

But I do reckon it's butter.

- Butter?

[Sniffs]

I reckon you're right.

[Squish]

- You sound familiar.

Do we know you?

- Well. Ha ha. Yeah, you know,

People know my voice.

Check it out. Check it out.

Ahem.

Cold creek, colorado.

The chilliest

Town in the old west.

- That was you? Oh!

- I thought I

Was going plumb crazy.

- Well, nice

To finally meet you.

Say, we're having a barbecue.

Would you like to join us?

- You know what? You know what?

That'd be swell.

That'd be swell. Hey, tell you

What, I'll bring the butter.

Let's roll.

[Regular voice]

Kind of an unusual ending

For kind of an unusual story.

Unusual, but I like it.

Rap battle, here I come.

- Boom-boom-boom-boom,

Click-click-click-click

- Yeah, come on

- Boom-boom-boom-boom

- What

- The time is now,

The day is here

- Here

The rhythm

That you're feelin'

The music in your ear

The charge is electric,

And all you got to do is

Plug it in

- A-plug, a--

- Plug it in

- Well, imagine a world

Where everything around you

Every sight and sound

Will astound you, surround you

Before you know it,

Even you'll have the power

To bring a word to life!

That's right!

- That's right!

- This is what we do,

We're the electric company

Inviting all of you

To all the possibilities

Learning to write

And learning to read

We have a good time

While we plant the seeds

And once you get it,

You have to share it

Discovering your power,

You own it

You wear it proud,

And you shout it out loud!

Electric company is in town

- Oh!

- Ha ha!

- Yeah! Monique!

- Yeah!

- What

- Because I have skills.

And those skills are mad!

[Laughter]

- Are you all right?

- Ha ha!

- A positive apple

In a negative town.

- What's next?

- That's wrong. A negative

Apple in a positive...

- Ha ha!

- Miserable.

- It's a little

Magnificent, isn't it?

[Both saying gibberish

Syllables in rhythm]

[Laughter]
