- [indistinct arguing]

- Quiet!

Duh!

Let's just settle the tie right here after school.

- We can't use this field.

They have soccer practice after school.

Who says we need this field when we have all of Ocean Shores?

- Okay, The Shack will be neutral territory.

If you're here, you're safe.

But if you're on the beach or the boardwalk, you're not.

- I won't be hunted down. I am not an animal!

- You just get tagged, Oliver.

Will you please chill?

- And let's agree, when you get tagged,

you freeze for ten seconds.

Real Mississippi seconds.

Not how fast you can count seconds.

- [indistinct chatter]

- Capture the other team's flag and bring it back to your side,

and you win.

I mean, Trish. [laughs]

Bust! - [laughing]

- Why don't we just dig a hole and bury it?

- Otto's team would never find it.

- What?

What about the rules, Twister?

The flag has to be visible.

And once you place it, you can't move it.

- Can't we bend the rules?

- Twister, grow up.

- It's not worth winning if you have to cheat.

Geesh!

- ♪

- This should make things interesting.

- What's that for?

- Let's just call it a decoy.

Stick it in someplace, they see it, they think it's their flag

and go off in the wrong direction.

- You have succumbed to the power of the dark side.

Nice one.

- Isn't that cheating?

- Yeah!

- Look, if I know Twister,

he's coming up with some crazy plan, too.

This is called strategy.

Here, stick this over on the rollercoaster.

Let's whomp Otto and get us that flag.

- Ah-oh!

- But I don't want to be the flag guard.

- It's easy.

If you see one of the other guys going for the decoy flag,

tag him.

- It's not the guys I'm worried about.

I don't wanna be womped by Trish.

Or Sherry.

Did you see Sherry's triceps?

- Oh come on.

You can do it, Oliver.

- Yeah.

Besides, we need our strength in the field.

Bros, let's go flag hunting.

I'm not getting involved.

I've never seen you kids so worked up since Brother Squid

got skateboarding banned from the boardwalk.

- Tito, all I need is a little help.

What's the matter with you, Tito?

- Hey, Twist! - Ah!

- Enjoying the neutral zone?

- This place is still neutral, right?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Listen up, I totally heard what you said

about this game and everything.

I feel the same way.

- Man, I'm glad we're on the same frequency.

- I have no idea where you guys hid your flag.

And you know what?

I just don't care anymore.

- I don't care either.

- So, you know what?

Let me just tell you where our flag is

so you can go get it and we can end this nutty game.

- Really? You'd do that?

- Sure, we're friends. Aren't we?

Who gives about a game?

- Okay.

We hid our flag behind the corner lamp.

- Excellent.

Catch ya later.

[laughing] Bust!

- Wait! You forgot to tell me where your flag is!

- He didn't forget, Twister.

- You fell for little Rocket Cuz's scam-ola.

- No way!

- It seems Rocket Boy doesn't like to play fair.

- I can't believe I told them where our flag is!

- You what? - It wasn't my fault.

He tricked me.

- Aloha to that. He toasted you.

- So he knows where our flag is?

We are toast, too.

- Not if we play his game.

- Whoa, whoa, whoat, whoa.

Put on the brakes, Reggie.

Don't tell me I raised two cheaters.

- We're not gonna cheat.

We're not gonna lie.

We're just gonna let Otto be Otto.

Trish, give me that bandana and meet me

on Otto's side of the boardwalk.

You don't really think you're gonna win this game, do ya?

You got it.

All of you. But how?

- [giggles]

Did you think your silly hiding place was gonna fool us?

- But I moved it.

I figured if I put it where the decoy flag was,

you'd never look there twice.

I know that place.

Then what's that?

- Trish's bandana.

Bust!

You cheated.

- No, I didn't say anything.

You did all the talking.

I was just talking to Johnny Loo.

You know, he supplies all the ice cream for The Shack.

- Let me guess.

He's gonna give us each a year supply

of strawberry ice cream screamers?

- Nah.

He's invited all of us on his boat to surf

the back side of Catalina Island next week.

- Awesome.

- As long as we leave the Squid at home.

- Yeah, with his luck, the boat will sink.

So I had toothpaste in my eye.

It stung.

- Exactly how did you get toothpaste in your eye again?

- After I woke up and fell out of bed,

I hit my head on the end table when I got up,

crawled over to the computer.

That's when you guys yelled to "Come On."

Then I deleted the game program on my computer

and rushed to brush my teeth

and squirted toothpaste right into my eye.

I couldn't help it!

Okay, I have a confession to make.

I kinda had another nickname before Squid back in Kansas.

Sammy, right?

We were watching soda being made.

My backpack strap kinda got caught in the conveyer belt.

Don't you remember that time when you--you--you know?

Yeah, Bobmundo, had

a really, really horrible bad luck streak.

Bobmundo walked into like five coconut trees.

Ended up hurting his tongue on the barbequed ear of a luau pig

and dropped in on the heaviest dude at pipeline,

wiping him out.

when the sun sets?

Bring Sam, and we will get rid of this bad old jinx...

once and for all.
