[ Duck quacks ]

Ugh!

What kind of auto mechanic runs out of spark plugs?

Well, looks like it's gonna be a while

before we can get the Rustbucket back on the road, kids.

Whaaaaat?!

I'm sorry, Ben, but I'm sure you can find a way

to make the best of it.

Grandpa, I'm with you,

but this town is so boring!

There's nothing to do here!

[ Groans ]

It's just sand, Grandfather!

Saaaaaaaaaaa...

Gwen? ...aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...

We're going to perish in the blistering sun. ...aaaaaaaaa...

Ick! Yee! ...aaaaaand!

Holy guacamole, you kids are dramatic.

There has to be something exciting going on in Sleepytown.

If something exciting ever happened in this town,

everyone would probably lose their minds!

[ Horn honks ]

Whoa! What's going on out here?

Zombozo: Citizens of Sleepytown!

I want your vote!

[ Noisemakers honk ] Your candidate has arrived!

Campaign workers, give the people what they deserve!

[ Indistinct talking ]

Zombozo?

Finally -- a butt to kick!

Got to save everyone from those big, evil...

[ Gasps ] ...T-shirt cannons?

What is he up to? [ Cheering ]

Heh! Sleepytown, how are ya?

[ Cheering ]

Please, please -- there'll be plenty of time

to cheer me on later.

This town needs a miracle,

and I am that miracle! [ Cheering ]

They're actually falling for this?

Is there even an election coming up?!

You know people -- they love anything bright and flashy.

Thumbskull: Here you go!

Whoa! The buttons light up!

Take that off!

People can't be this gullible.

Keep your eyes peeled, folks.

This town is going to change forever!

[ Cheering ]

[ All groaning ]

Now he's trying to hypnotize us, but it's not even worki--

[ Gasps ] Grandpa?! Ben!

Wait -- how come I'm not hypnotized?

Hmm.

[ Gasps ]

Look away from the screens!

Oh!Oh!

Good thing you were wearing your sunglasses today, Gwen.

We can't just let Zombozo dupe these innocent people like this!

We definitely need to find out what he's up to

before someone gets hurt.

Zombozo: Yes, yes! Keep your eyes on me!

[ Laughs evilly ]

[ Laughs ] Butts just asking to be kicked.

Gwen, you and I will find a way to disable the hypno-screens

while Ben --

Huh? Ben? Where'd he go?

Well, looks like it's just you and me --

Hmm. Guess I'm flying solo on this one.

This party is about to lose its clown.

But I'll need something to distract Zombozo

while I'm poking around the screens.

Gwen: Zombozo!

The polls are in, and you're out!

[ All groaning ]

[ Growls ]

That'll work.

[ Exhales deeply ]

Whoa! Money! [ Laughs ]

We don't have time for playing around, Acid Breath!

Zombozo can only distract the townsfolk for so long.

Frightwig, you're no fun.

I bet you're just gonna blow your cut

on science junk or something.

I do have my eye on a new soldering iron.

What are you gonna do?

Well, I just heard of this new thing called mouthwash.

Apparently, the ladies love it.

Ew!

What are you spending your share on, Thumbskull?

♪♪

Egh! Dude can't even afford mouthwash?

I almost feel bad stopping this crime.

Uh...no, I don't.

What do you think you're doing, kid?!

What do you think you're doing, clown?

These good, honest Sleepy-Townies

can see right through your gimmicks.

Oh. No, they can't. They're hypnotized.

Why would they listen to you when they can see fireworks?!

[ Crowd "Ooh"s ] [ Laughing ]

[ Groans ] Just got to find the "Off" switch and then --

Oh, boy.

Gee, a bank vault

is a weird place for a freak show.

What are the odds?

[ Grunts ]

[ Yelling ]

Ugh!

[ Grunts, inhales ]

[ Sizzling ]

[ Laughs ]

There's too many of them.

[ Zap ] Ow! There's too many of them.

One of these has to be it.

Yeah, come on! Let's hear it for me!

No! Everybody, don't let him fool you!

Look away from the -- the...

[ Punch lands ] Oof!

You know, soldering irons are like $.

You don't need to steal a whole town's money.

[ Grunting ]

The money ain't for us.

It's for Zombozo.

[ Shouts ] Hyah!

I think I got it. [ Powering down ]

...and cotton candy for breakfast --

every morning!

Ooh... Ooh... Ooh... Ooh...

Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh?

All right, Gwen! Your turn!

People of Sleepytown!

Zombozo's been hypnotizing you!

He's a bad guy!

Tell me something, folks --

would a bad guy give you free hats?

[ Crowd chanting "Hats!" ]

Wait! You're not even hypnotized!

[ Chanting continues ]

Sleepytown has spoken, and they've chosen me.

And Sleepytown is just the first

of my many campaign stops across the country.

I'm gonna break all the records for fundraising.

[ Laughs evilly ]

Aw, don't look so sad.

Here -- cheer up. Have a t-shirt!

[ Cheering ]

You're robbing a bank for that evil clown,

but you don't get any of the money?

That's just bad criminaling.

As a card-carrying henchman,

I find it best not to think about it.

Can't you -- [ Grunts ]

...see that he's using you?

Zombozo hasn't given us any money.

Maybe he never will!

Listen to her, man. Have you guys ever been paid?

Zombozo, I think I need to go to the dentist.

Zombozo, I need to go to the doctor. I'm only .

Does this look infected to you?

You're right! We're never gonna get the big payday!

No payday?!

♪♪

[ Screaming ]

No, Thumbskull! Calm down!

Zombozo can get his own money!

We're out of here!

You better run.

Wow! I talked them out of it!

Move over, Grey Matter.

There's a new smart alien in town.

How's it going?

Terrible.

All anyone cares about is T-shirts and buttons.

Man: Whoa! Tote bags!

And tote bags.

You were right -- people only care

about flashy antics, not common sense.

Well, I just talked Zombozo's henchmen out of bank-robbering.

Try it.

Hey, Zombonehead!

Why don't you tell us about your plans

for the Sleepytown economy?

Yeah! What now, Zombozo?!

Who needs economy when you've got buttons?!

Uh, you already gave us buttons.

Yeah, tell us your plans!

[ Cheering ]

Plans?! I don't need plans!

No plans?

Looks like somebody didn't graduate from clown college!

Do you even care about education?

Ooh! Burn!

Education?

Geez, you're boring, for a kid.

Who wants to talk about homework?

You know, Zombozo makes a fair point.

Um, I like homework.

Nobody cares, nerd!

Hey! Leave her alone!

I'm cool, but education is kind of important.

And look! He's a total litterbug! [ All gasp ]

How's he gonna clean up the streets

when he's the one messing them up?

And speaking of the environment,

you just set that tree on fire with your fireworks!

Hey! That's our only tree!

And how about law and order?

His cronies are robbing the bank right now.

Wait -- what?!

Why don't you explain that, Zombozo?

[ Indistinct shouting ]

Where are those henchmen?

[ Cellphone honks ] A text?

Angry face, angry face, fire, money...

Mexico?!

They quit?!

Well, Zombozo?

What do you have to say to the people of Sleepytown?

All right.

I guess it's time for a debate.

Zombozo-style!

[ Laughs evilly ]

[ All scream ]

That's my cue!

♪♪

Aah!

Aw, come on! I just got those!

[ Grunts ]

[ Laughs evilly ]

[ Grunts ]

Ben needs some help, Grandpa!

Here! Take this!

Let's get Zombozo into something a little more comfortable.

[ Laughs ]

Huh?

Mmphf!

Aah!

Argh!

Aah!

A good clown knows his cue to leave.

[ Grunts ] Why aren't I moving?!

Why isn't he going?

Oh, I may have taken the liberty of borrowing his spark plugs.

All right, buddy, that was your last laugh!

All right. The spark plugs are in.

We can get out of here.

What?! You can't leave!

We need you here in Sleepytown.

We can't lead ourselves!

I got this, Gwen.

I'm a good talker now.

If you guys just believe in yourselves, you can do anything.

I mean, not anything, but, like, a lot of things.

Anyway, I know that everyone in Sleepytown can join together

and create something bigger.

Like how in that one episode of "Sumo Slammers,"

they did that thing where they fused into that super-mega-Sumo,

with lasers and stuff.

You guys can totally do that!

Become a super mega Sleepytown Sumo!

You know, on second thought, we'll be fine on our own.

Common sense!

Just like I did with the henchmen.

Max: Let's go, kids.

Oh, yeah, uh...do we need to go after those guys?

Nah. I'll get 'em next time.

I wonder where they ran off to.

[ Electricity crackling ]

Why aren't I moving?!
