02x06 - Oscar Strikes Back

Post by bunniefuu »

Coming up next on Odd Squad...

Oscar, you finally made it to Lab Con.

(whirring)

We shall rise up and take control of all Odd Squads.

What's goin' on here?

My name is Agent Olympia.

This is my partner, Agent Otis.

This is the other shoe that dropped.

But back to Otis and me.

We work for an organization run by kids

that investigates anything strange,

weird,

and especially, odd.

Our job is to put things right again.

Ah!



(makes siren noise)



Hurry, Olympia!

I'm comin', Ms. O!



OLYMPIA: Who do we work for?

We work for Odd Squad.



ODELIA: Enjoy the con.

Whoa, Oscar! Hey, Odelia.

You finally made it to Lab Con.

Yup, my new assistant Oona's

looking after the lab while I'm gone.

She's never done it before, so, who knows?

She might hit the wrong button

and the whole thing could explode.

(both laugh)

I gotta go.

MS. O: Oscar, this is why I came.

You always complain about missing

this weird, sweaty scientist party.

Lab Con. It's called Lab Con.

Oona will be fine in the lab.

OONA: Howdy do!

Oona, why aren't you in the lab?

Ms. O, you said not to call Oscar,

so I decided to... (clears throat)

(singing) ♪ swing on by!

You left the lab unattended?

No. What am I, crazy?

I made a wax figure of myself.

Hey, gadget lady, this is broken.

Hello?

Oh, I see what's happening.

You heard I'm awesome at staring contests

and you want to challenge me.

Say nothing if that's true.

Let's rumble.

Anyhoo, my question is

when agents sign out a gadget,

should they use a pen or a pencil?

I have to go.

You are not.

You are going to go have fun.

I'll bring Oona back to the truck.

(singing) ♪ Everything's going to be fine! ♪

Please stop singing.

Here's the scientist stuff we all get.

This year's pin's inside.

Also, you need to check your gadgets.

Enjoy the con!

KIDS: Oscar! Oscar!

Hey, guys! Hey, guy!

Hey, guy!

Hey, guy!

KIDS: Oscar, I can't believe you made it!

Look at this guy!

He started the first lab at Odd Squad.

And came up with combining gadgets.

What's combining gadgets?

Honestly, what are they teachin' them at this place?

Every gadget has a number on the bottom -

like these Eyebrow-inators have a number five.

But what if you're in a pinch

and you don't have the gadget you need?

Well, thanks to this genius...

It's no big deal. It is!

This genius monster figured out that

you can combine gadgets to get the gadget you need,

like, for example, the Hat-inator is number ten.

So if you take two fives -

Watch this part very closely -

Five plus five equals ten.

KIDS: Whoa!

And you can keep on combining gadgets -

like ten plus five.

That's easy to figure out. It's one ten and five ones.

So ten

plus five

equals .

The Fancy Hat-inator.

P.A.: Please take your seats.

Ooh, Obbs is about to give the welcome speech.

Ugh. Obbs.

Wait, what's wrong with Obbs? Nothing.

I mean, if you're president of the scientists,

wear the bow tie - that's all I'm saying.

And don't you think he's a little bit showy?

P.A.: Introducing President Obbs!

Boom!

(applause)

Maybe a little bit showy.

Nice to see you all wearing the new pins!

(applause)

Oops. I dropped my pin. Oh dear.

Whoo! What a year, huh?

Another year where the agents

get all the glory

and we scientists get nothing.

Funny -

I called a bunch of you to say

we gotta do something about this,

but you said, "We like helping.

We're all a part of the same team."

But that ends with this gadget,

for this shall control your minds!

(loud whirring)

Now we shall rise up

and take control of all Odd Squads.

We shall rise up and take control of all Odd Squads.

What's goin' on here?

Oscar?

It looks like your pin broke.

Come down here and I'll fix it.

Uh, no, it's okay.

OBBS: Really, it's no problem.

Just come down. It'll be cool.

No, it's fine.

I can go do it in the, uh, restroom.

I feel like you're gonna run.

Run? Why would I do tha-

Well? Get him!



I knew you'd try and sneak out!

We gotta get outta here!

Oscar, you've got to trust Oona.

Mind-controlled scientists are after me.

Wow, you will make up any excuse.

Now I believe you.

Go!

Ms. O is here? Get her too!

KIDS: (slowly) Get Ms. O, too.

That voice is super creepy. Let me just...

(excited) Get Ms. O too!

Better.



In here!

(grunt)

Hurry!

I'll call Odd Squad for back up.

There's no escape!

I jammed the signal.

There's no calls outside the building.

I don't have time for this. I have a world to take over!

I thought we were taking over Odd Squa- No, no, no.

First Odd Squad,

then the world, then the other worlds,

if they have life on them.

I have a hunch about Neptune. Doesn't matter.

I'll be in my office planning. Let me know when you have them.

We need to get that remote. How?

I can't use my fists, and you can't use gadgets.

We're like super heroes without our powers.

(cell phone ring)

No calls outside the building,

but he didn't say anything about inside the building.

Go for O.

OONA: Hey, Ms. O. Oona?

I'm inside the building in the garage.

Do you now if I need a parking ticket stamped, or -

She's inside the building!

Oona, we need your help.

It's gonna take about minutes to explain.

Twenty minutes later...

Whoa, I can't believe it!

I know.

No, I mean that took exactly minutes to explain.

You really called it.

Oh, and also the evil takeover part.

That's bad, too.

I need you to go into the ice cream truck

and find gadgets that can help us.

Well, okay. When should I go?

Now would be a good time. Right!

I found some gadgets. I just don't know what they do.

It's easy to tell which is which.

You're right. I'll just blast them!

No, no, don't!

(laugh) Tiny note-inator.

Feather-inator!

Flower-inator! Oh. That makes sense.

It has a little flower thing.

Why can't they all just have that?

(banging, animal sounds, general ruckus)

(banging, animal sounds, general ruckus)

(banging, animal sounds, general ruckus)

Listen to me. Oona!

OONA: Sweater-inator!

Pick up the phone!

Oona! What's up, boss?

You don't have to test 'em.

Each one has a number on the bottom of it.

Oh. Yeah, easier.

Oscar... Ms. O! Shh!

The scientists'll find us. They already did.

Oh.

Okay, back, back, back, back, back, back...

(shout)

Are you afraid of heights? No.

Good. Hiyah!

What floor are we on?

A lower one?

Get Oscar! Get Ms. O!

How many of you are at this conference?

Odelia, it's me, Oscar!

I know you're still in there, my friend!

Oscar?

It's working. She's breaking through!

No, I'm just messing with you.

My mind is still totally controlled.

At least they still have a sense of humor.

BOTH: Run!

Oona, we need a gadget to slow these guys down.

Get to Obbs and get that remote.

All I have is useless stuff like this flower-inator.

Every gadget has a number on the bottom of it.

You can combine gadgets by adding the numbers

to get the gadget that you need.

But I don't know which numbers to combine!

The computer in the truck has all the gadgets and the numbers.

Use what you have to build a gadget we can use--

Ah, I gotta go!

Gadgets they can use, gadgets they can use...

Ooh!

Number 's looking good.

Okay, if I'm trying to add up to ,

I can eliminate anything that's bigger,

like... two hundred!

There's still too many!

Maybe I can make this easier

by breaking it down to tens and ones.

Eighty-five is made up of one,

two, three,

four, five, six, seven,

eight groups of ten, which is ,

and one, two,

three, four, five ones,

which makes five.

So plus

equals .

I can make by adding plus .

Eighty...

plus five.

(electric hum)

I just made my first gadget!

I need to journal about this.

Later... Uh, should...

should do this later.

KIDS: Get Oscar. Get Ms. O.

(phone ring)

MS. O: Go for O.

Oona has the gadget.

We're on the second floor. Bring it to us.

With all due respect, ma'am,

I will not risk losing the one scientist we still have.

MS. O: Then what are we supposed to do?

To be continued!



OSCAR: Odd Squad Training Video Number -

Combining Gadgets.

Attention, sports fans -

A giant golf ball is on the loose.

The good news is that

you can make a hole for it to drop into,

using the hole-in- one-inator gadget.

Did you forget your hole-in-one-inator gadget?

Not to worry.

Every Odd Squad gadget has a number on the bottom of it.

You can combine gadgets to make

the gadget that you need.

In this case,

the hole-in-one-inator gadget is the number ten.

There are lots of numbers you can combine

to make the number ten.

You can use five and five,

six and four, seven and three,

eight and two,

or, like these agents, nine and one.



Congratulations!

You made yourself a hole-in-one-inator gadget.

Now all you gotta do is keep your eyes out

for the giant, speeding...

...golf ball.

(kids groan)

MS. O: Has this ever happened to you?

Oh, man. Blobs again?

MS. O: You've tried cleaning it out...

You've tried talking it out...

You get out of there right now, mister!

MS. O: You've even tried dancing it out.

How about this, blob?

Huh? You like this?

MS. O: But nothing's working, and you've had enough.

Nothing is working, and I've had enough!

You need to call And now the rest of the story...

Oona has the gadget.

We're on the second floor. Bring it to us.

With all due respect, ma'am,

I will not risk losing the one scientist we still have.

Tell her to send it up the elevator.

I'll get there.

MS. O: Send it up the elevator.

Let's find Obbs and get that remote.

Was that too much?

No, that was pretty good.

How did they get a gadget?!

It came from the elevator.

Maybe the elevator is working with them.

Elevators don't have brains.

They - Argh!

How are you suddenly all not smart

after I controlled your minds?

Someone's helping them.

Odelia! Take a team.

Check every floor, the roof, the garage!

You two - clean yourselves up!

Find Oscar and Ms. O!

You need more than one.

Take the whole box.

Ugh!

Alright,

I made a gadget, helped Ms. O and Oscar...

If I can get this whole

talking to myself thing under control,

I am doing alright!

(ding) What was that?



I picked the wrong week to stop talking to myself.

It's okay.

You have a truck full of helpful gadgets,

like, like, uh...

Tiny Note-inator.

How could this help me?

(banging on truck)

Unlock-inator!

We found an ice cream truck, but it's empty.

Search the rest of the garage.

(ding)

We checked every floor.

Which means Obbs' office must be on this floor.

Yeah.

Get Oscar! Get Ms. O!

Stand back, Ms. O! It's not working!

You're out of string! Come on!



(grunt)



Now how are we gonna find Obbs?

OBBS: Found him!

Please, have a seat...

and a pin.

(electric hum)







(ding)







Guys, I'm in the elevator.

I had to leave the truck. Where are you?

Oscar and Ms. O are with me.

What? Wait, who is "me?"

OBBS: The President of the Scientists...

Obbs.

Oh, yeah - We haven't met yet.

No. This is a trick.

You just found Oscar's phone.

You're in the elevator, right?

There's a screen that shows the weather

and ads for vacation getaways.

Now you believe me?

This camera only goes one way.

I can't see you. Are you nodding?

Yes.

Hey, its okay, kiddo.

Just come up to my office and you won't have to

think about any of this

ever again.

(sigh) I'll be right there.

High five!

OBBS: Took you long enough.

Thanks for giving up.

Oh, uh, this is super awkward.

I'm not giving up. You are!

Ha! Why would I?

I control all of them!

But so do I.

Get him!

How did you make that?

Every gadget has a number.

OONA: When you held up the remote,

I saw the number on the bottom.

I'll be right there.

The simplest way to find out how to add up to

was to break it down into hundreds,

tens, and ones...

two groups of , which is ...

three rows of ten, which is thirty...

...and one, two, three, four ones,

which is four.

plus , plus ,

equals .

And now that I control all scientists,

I shall be the one to rule the world!

(maniacal laugh)

...Joking, joking. So joking.

I'm gonna smash these!

What happened?

Oona happened.

Stop.

OWEN: It is my duty to inform you

that you're no longer a member of Odd Squad.

Hand it over.

You do realize I'm just going to rise up again as a villain.

Hey, that's your choice. It keeps us busy -

and we like busy, right, Ohio? Love it.

But there are better options for you.

Life of Grime Villain Rehab.

This is all my fault.

If only I came to Lab Com more often,

I would've seen what Obbs was doing.

OTHERS: No! It's not your fault, dude.

The fact is the scientists need a new president -

someone they all know,

someone strong they can trust.

But Ms. O, you can't leave Odd Squad.

I'm talking about you.

Me? A president? No!

They need someone they can look up to.

Oscar, you know we already have a giant statue of you

we literally look up to, right?

Oh.

(angelic choir)

But Ms. O, my lab!

I think Oona's proved herself to be smart, and fearless,

and ready for any... challenge.

I thought I'd record this for later

when I'm doing less well.

But yeah, like she said. ♪ I'm coo-

Can I talk to you for a second?

Ms. O...

You're President Oscar now.

Call me Oprah.

Oprah...

Yeah, it's going to take a while.

This is a huge honor, and I want to,

but - But what?

I don't want to not see you every day.

Me neither...

but they need you here.

And I'll visit you.

You'll visit me.

We'll hang out all the time.

Go...

Be the leader I know you are.

(sigh)

I was thinking - How about we hang out now?

Do you want to just hang out, like, right now?

Yeah. I'd like that.

I joined because I should be able to finish a sentence

and not get interrupted halfwa-

I joined because silence should be golden...

Not golden with those

little char marks from a barbeque.

I joined because your watch'll tell you the time -

just not all the time.

(man's voice) : twenty-nine,

We are... We are...

We are...

We are Odd Squad.

MS. O: Since the beginning of time...

and we're talking way back...

we've been fighting odd.

In our spare time,

we also like to draw pictures of ourselves.

This is our second-favorite one.

There's no case too big...

No case too small...

At Odd Squad, we do it all.

(men babbling "Buy! Sell!")

And yes, that is a herd of wild businessmen.

Hi, my name's Oona. Join Odd Squad at pbskids

I'm ten years old and I work in the lab.

My first day here,

I traveled through time.

(scream)

What happened?

Because I went through time,

I don't know if I'm still ten.

Maybe I'm eleven. Nine?

All I know is I can't see color any more.

But that was okay,

'cause I just bonk the back of my head and...

Bam! I can see color again.

I'll tell you this -

Oscar is one hard act to follow.

Aside from building so many amazing gadgets,

he also built a secret bunker.

Ready, boss!

Where are you going?

OSCAR: I'm just going inside of my bunker.

I'll come out when this is all over.

So that's me, Oona.

Whoops. Uh.

Color went out again.

OONA: Welcome to Odd Squad - A Guide to Your Gadgets!

Behold the Centigurp Chyro Containment Unit,

keeping centigurps from multiplying

since .

If you look close at the lock,

you will see that it's actually

a bunch of tiny men named Charles

holding the unit shut.

In addition to centigurps,

the unit can also be used as a drum,

a stool, or a hat.

This has been a helpful guide

to the Centigurp Containment Unit.

Remember - knowledge is power,

power is gadgets, and gadgets is bubble gum.
