This is a terrific party,
Trina.

Yeah. [slurping]
It sure...

Mmm... is.

I'm glad
you're enjoying it.

Yes, indeed.
[chuckles]

This gumbo is delicious.

But what's the occasion?

Silly. The shindig's to honor
you and the Anythings.

Us? But why?

Because you saved our batch
of Grunge gumbo.

And you saved us
from being cooked.

And we've all made
some new friends.

So let's party!

-You said it, Trina!
-Yeah, you bet!

We're most honored.

But if you're gonna party
Grunge-style,

I think you need a little, um,
change in image.

Is there something wrong
with the way we look?

Well, not exactly wrong.

Just not right.

Hey, but we can fix that.

Well, fellas?

I'm waiting.

Grubby: Ready or not,
here we come.

Well, Trina,
what do you think?

All right!

Now you look
ready to party.

-Where's Gimmick?
-I think he's a little shy.

Are you coming, Gimmick?

Gimmick:
Eh, yes, I suppose so.

Although, I must say...
[chuckles]

this Grunge-style clothing does
make me feel, eh, different.

Whoa! Great legs, Newton.

Oh. [chuckles]
Thank you, Trina.

This is most unusual.

I feel like dancing.

Hey, it's the clothes.

That's the way we feel
all the time.

Come on.
Let's join the big bash.

We'll be right there.

I just wanna put on the belt
that I carried the crystals in.

I sure the Grunges wouldn't take
anything that belongs to us.

I know that,

but I just feel better knowing
the crystals are safe.

We sure don't wanna
lose them again.

Most certainly not.

Well, come on you two.

As Trina would say,
"Let's get down."

[both laughing]

[cheering, applause]

Thank you, everybody.

You Anythings are too much.

How do you do that?

I don't know how we do it.
We just do it.

We can be anything
we want to be.

But if you don't mind,
we'd rather not turn
into vegetables today.

[laughing]

And now for
our grand finale.

Something special
in honor of our new friends.

-crowd gasping]
-Oh, my goodness!

Hmm.

Hmm.

We might look like you,
but no one can take your place.

We're glad to have made
such wonderful new friends.

[cheering, applause]

Bodacious.

Drop in anytime.

There'll always
be some Grunge gumbo
stewing for you guys.

Thank you, Trina.
We'll be happy to.

How about tonight?
What time's supper?

[laughing]

All right, everyone,
prepare to liftoff.

Next stop
the Mushroom Forest.

Teddy:
♪ Let's sail away today ♪

♪ Let's sail away today ♪

♪ Let's sail off right now
on a breeze ♪

♪ Let's sail off together
wherever we please ♪

♪ Let's put
all our worries away ♪

♪ Let's put on our smiles
and let's wear them all day ♪

♪ Let's chase every bird
that goes flying on by ♪

♪ Let's go sailing, yes,
let's go sailing ♪

♪ Let's go sailing today ♪

-Gimmick, are you sure
the airship is running smoothly?
-[droning]

It doesn't sound quite right.

Everything seems
to be in order.

Eh...

I don't think that sound
is coming from us.

Uh-oh.

It sounds like the machines
those Gutang guys fly.

I'll whip up some root stew
in a jiffy.

Don't those Gutangs
ever learn?

[droning continues]

Grubby, Gimmick, look!

It's not Gutangs.

[shouting]

Oh, it's something
much worse!

A heavily armed ship, a bunch of
evil thugs to do the dirty work,

and three helpless little
goodie-goodies to pick on.

Oh, this is villainy
at its best!

At last, Quellor has given me
a chance to prove

how mean and nasty I really am.

You don't have to prove it
to me, Tweeze.

Uh, Bogstruck--
Stugbottle--

-Clostro--
-Bognostroclum.

Eh, whatever.

Do you bring my secret orders
from Quellor?

No, but I've got
some orders for you.

Swab the deck, matey.

But-- But you can't
be serious.

Jack W. Tweeg
does not swab decks.

Tweeg does
what he's told to do.

Not anymore,
you walking garbage can.

Garbage can?! Now listen,
you overgrown zucchini.

What's going on here?

Both: He started it.

[squawks]
He started it.
He started it.

I ordered him
to swab the deck
and he refused.

In no uncertain terms.

But, Your Gruesomeness,

I was merely explaining
that you had an important
assignment for me.

Quiet both of you.

There's an emergency at hand.

The Illiop's airship
is approaching.

Exactly my point,
Your Terrorosity.

Hmm?

I can lure those goodie-goodies
into your clutches

before they have a chance
to hide the magic crystals.

Don't listen to him, Sire.
Make him swab the deck.

[squawks]
Swab the deck.
Swab the deck.

Please, Supreme Oppressor?

I know I can do it.

Why I make laughingstocks
of those three nincompoops
all the time.

Is this true?

Sure. He makes them
laugh their heads off.

Very well, but this time,
get it right, or else.

[squawks]
Or else. Or else.

They're getting closer
all the time.

I'm afraid
you're right, This.

And it's so huge.

I'd better make an extra-large
batch of root stew for this.

I don't think your root stew
will get us out of this fix,
Grubby.

Oh, it's not for them.

It's for me.

I always eat
when I'm nervous.

-Tweeg: Yoo-hoo! Yoo-hoo!
-[all gasp]

Lovely day for sailing,
isn't it?

What do you want, Tweeg?

Won't you come aboard?

We're having a little tea party.
[chuckles]

-No thanks, Tweeg.
We already ate.
-Grubby: Huh?

Speak for yourself.

-Well?
-[gasps]

Never fear, Your Meanness.

I've got them
in the palm of my hand.

-Gimmick:
They're getting closer.
-Grubby: What are we gonna do?

When we Anythings
are in danger,

we try to trick
whoever's after us.

-Maybe you should try it.
-Good idea, That.

Okay, Tweeg, we'll be
right over for the party.

Pour our tea.

Yeah, uh, and I'd like an extra
helping of cucumber sandwiches.

Do we have extra
cucumber sandwiches?

-We're not really having
a tea party, you dimwit!
-Oh, right.

[grumbling]

Ready, lads?

One... two...

eh, three!

[both shout]

They're getting away!

Does this mean we're gonna be
stuck with all those cucumbers?
[laughs]

-Palm of your hand, eh?
-[gasps]

Watch how a real villain
handles this.

-Helmsman, full speed!
-[grumbling]

Skirmishers, prepare to board!

Tweeg, if they escape,

you'll suffer tortures
I haven't invented yet!

[gulps]

[chuckles]

That last little trick
surprised them.

Keep turning the propeller.

We may escape yet.

Huh?

Wow!
Now this is what I call news.

Faster, Gimmick.
They're gaining on us.

So I see.

But I still got a few tricks
up my, eh, sleeve.

Prepare to come about.

Where are they?
Where did they go?

What great footage.

Hey, they're behind us.

Faster, you fools, faster!

Teddy: They're catching up
to us, Gimmick.

I don't think we can
keep this up much longer.

I'm afraid you're right, Teddy.

Hey.

-[shouting, cheering]
-We got 'em! We got 'em!

Quick, Grubby,
get that hook out.

[straining]

I can't, Teddy. It's stuck.

Then there's only
one thing left to do.

We have to surrender.

-Surrender?
-You mean give up? No way.

It's our only chance
to save the crystals.

Well, if you put it that way,
then okay.

What do you
want us to do?

Well, when the pirates board us,

I need you two
to create a distraction.

We'll do our best, my boy.

Just say when and we'll put
our distraction into action.

-And you Anythings...
-How can we help?

By using your special
talents to hide.

If there's one thing
we're good at, it's hiding.

Come on, guys.

-Ready?
-Both: Ready.

Ahoy, everybody.

Uh, maybe we will have
that tea after all.

[grumbling]

Ready or not,
here we come!

Bring the prisoners to me.

-[Grubby gasps]
-Gimmick: Whoa!

[grumbling]

Got ya!

Na-na. Can't catch me.

Uh...

Uh-oh.

Yoo-hoo. Over here.

Avast yee!
Grab him!

Time to roll out the barrel.

[chuckles]

[both gasp]

[grunts]

-Whee!
-Come back here, you barnacle!

Argh! Gonna be swabbies!

[grumbles]

[chuckles]

[groans]
I thought you guys surrendered.

No, Teddy surrendered.

I'm creating a distraction.

[grumbling]

What action! What pathos!

Grubby: Ya...

...hoo!

[Grubby thuds]

Ooh!

[chuckles] Now I surrender.

[grunts]

Well, so we meet again.

Hand over the crystals.

[squawks]
Hand them over.
Hand them over.

I'm afraid we don't have them.

Argh. It's true,
Your Unpleasantness.

We already searched them.

Then search their ship.

Ouch.

Who said that?

[giggles]
That tickles.

-Who said that?!
-Oof!

Now I'm hearing things.

Argh.
This is a strange craft.

Argh. Do you think
it's haunted?

Uh, I hope not.

Well, did you find
those crystals?

Argh. Not a trace of
them, Your Awfulness.

I know they're hiding them
somewhere.

Fasten a cable to their ship.

I want it towed
to M.A.V.O. Headquarters

and ripped apart
board by board.

Okay, those awful pirates
are gone.

Remember what Teddy said.

We should try to escape.

But first we have to do
something about their towline.

Now why can't you be reasonable?

Just tell me
where those crystals are

and untold wealth
shall be yours.

You can't put a price
on the crystals.

They represent riches
of the spirit,

and you want to use
them for evil.

Quite true,
my fuzzy little friend.

However, we grow tired
of this little game.

This is your last chance.

-Now hand them over!
-All: No!

Fools!

You'll regret this.

[squawks]
You'll regret this.
You'll regret this.

Prepare the Illiop
to walk to plank.

-[gasping]
-[grumbling]

Whoa!

[Teddy gulps, panting]
Uh-oh.

[gasps] We must find something
to cut the rope.

-But what?
-Hey, look. Over here.

Hey!

[straining]

Talk, Illiop,
or drop to your doom.

You wouldn't dare.

[gulps] Yes, he would, Gimmick.

That's right.

When I could three,

your friend starts
his long walk.

[laughs]

One... two...

Wait, Quellor.

What happens if we tell you?

No, Gimmick. Telling will only
bring evil to the world.

I know. Oh, my.

What a dilemma.

Come on!
I'm getting tired of this.

Yeah!
Scurry your stumps.

That's it.
Keep on sawing.

Walk! Walk! Walk!

[Anythings chuckle]

-[gasps]
-Move, you fuzzy barnacle!

Move!

Oh!

Whoa!

Here, Teddy! Grab on!

[panting] That was close.

Where'd he go?

-What's going on?
-That's not playing fair.

[gasps] The airship!

She's disappeared!

[grumbling]

Argh! Find the ship!

-Find the Illiop.
-Somebody find my sword.

[squawks]

-I say we head for home.
-Right.

To the Mushroom Forest.

Or we could follow
that ship to M.A.V.O.

and rescue our friends.

Right.
Let's rescue them.

Or we could find out
where we are.

-Right.
-Both: Mm-hmm.

Where are we?

I don't see
the Mushroom Forest.

And I don't see
the M.A.V.O. ship.

I don't see anything.
We must be in a cloud.

And we can't fly this thing.

What are we gonna do?

[grumbling]

Silence!

The ship is gone
thanks to you fools.

Now haul up that Illiop.

Argh. Right, up you come,
my courageous little twerp.

Here he is, Your Gloominess.

-[crowd groaning]
-I mean, here he was.

[both gasp]

Teddy's gone!

Gosh, Gimmick,
what are we gonna do now?

Oh, I don't know, my boy.

[sniffles]
I-I-I just don't know.

[Teddy grunting]

I don't know how much longer
I can hold on.

Maybe this thing will help.

It seems to bring
far away things closer.

The M.A.V.O. ship,
I can see it, and...

Oh, my!

Our friend Teddy's
in real trouble!

-[Teddy shouting]
-Oh, no! He's falling!
