Tweeg: Why, Mummy,
I never knew you were so handy
with a needle and thread.

Who do you think
stitched your clothes

when you were just
a small irritation?

-You, Mummy?
-Don't be ridiculous.

I made your
good-for-nothing
father do it.

There.
That's the last of them.

I must admit, Tweegy,

it wasn't a bad idea

sewing the competitors
into their sleeping bags.

Oh, thank you, Mummy.
Thank you. Thank you.

Stop that!
Boot-licking doesn't
become you.

Although
you are good at it.

There, now we're certain

to win every event
in this stupid Lizard Week.

Not Lizard. Wizard.

Same difference.

Surf Grunge:
Hey, man, like,
the zipper's stuck.

Can't get-- Oh, wow.

[laughs]

I can't understand
where the rest of
the contestants are.

They're supposed
to be here at sunrise

for the synchronized
swimming contest.

Good.
Then disqualify them.

Well,
if I disqualify everyone,
judging won't be much fun.

Yeah,
and I want the whole
spectacle on film.

The thrill of agony.

The defeat of victory.

And the triumph
of stupidity.

We can't
wait any longer.

Let the synchronized
swimming commence.

Louie: Tweeg and his
buoyant Bounders

are using the classic
entry formation.

A display
of precision wading

that we've all
been waiting for.

Ladies and gentlemen,
it's a starburst formation.

Never has this commentator
seen it ex*cuted

with such grace
and daring.

[all coughing]

What prowess.

These Bounders really
deserve a hand.

Uh, let me rephrase that.

[Tweeg shouting]

Ah, yes, the famous
beach-ball routine.

Yow!

Grubby:
Watch out.

[Wooly jabbers]
Hey, who's that?

Gimmick:
Eh, calm down, everyone.

Let's stop
and think this out.

There must be a solution
to this, eh, dilemma.

Ooh.

Rise and shine.
Getting late.

Let's go.

Don't wanna miss
any of the events.

Oh!

Oh...

L.B. is still under.

What an athlete.
What a show.

What a jerk.

Hmm, I suspect Tweeg's
behind all this.

Yeah, that's the first time
he's had me in stitches.

And I hope
it's the last.

Come on, everybody.
We're missing the first event.

And here are
the victorious champions.

First, second,
and third place.

A sweep for Tweeg's team
in the first event.

Ha, what a rotten,
underhanded, no-good trick.

Thank you, thank you.

Yeah, that goes
double for me, man.

I must say, that was not
very sporting.

Is it my fault all of you
overslept?

[all protest]

-You cheated!
-No fair!

-You sewed us in!
-Yes, you did.

All contestants prepare
for the second event.

Illiop, Perloon, Grunge, Fob,
Octopede, or whatever,

to your boats!

Whew. Saved by the gong.

Wizard:
Get ready, get set, go!

[coughs]

[jabbers]

-Whee!
-Whoopee!

Nice throw, Wooly.

Ah, glad to help out,
fellers!

Eleanor:
Stroke! Stroke! Stroke!

Pull, you barnacle-bitten
Bounders.

Eleanor,
Prince Arin dead ahead.

[laughs] That's what
he'll be, all right.

[gasps]
Arin, look.

[both scream]

I do believe that's
against the rules.

Oh, I enjoyed that.

Who's next?

Wow, man. Like,
with this cosmic wind, man,

like,
we are numero uno.

Oh, like, awesome.

Hey, there's a good one.

Forget it.
They don't have
a chance of winning.

Eleanor:
I've told you before,
Tweegy,

take care of the little things

and the big things
take care of themselves.

Ramming speed.

[all grunting]

Chill out, man.

Like, too intense.

Oh, yikes.

[both exclaim]

[laughter]

Hey, might as well
cop some rays, man.

Doesn't seem to be
working too well, Gimmick.

I can't fathom it.

Vector analysis indicates

that it should
function perfectly.

Well, I guess this guy
Vector isn't very good
at analyzing boats.

You're not kidding, Grubby.

We're about to be rammed!

Whoa!

[gasps]

Ooh!

What action.
What thrills.

What a race.

Wave, Tweez. Wave.

All right, if you insist.

Yow!

Whoa!

[Fobs scream]

-Whee!
-[laughter]

-Surfing!
-I love surfing.

Yep, this is fun.

[cheering, laughter]

Way to go, guys!
Way to go!

[laughs] Who said
cheaters never prosper?

Cheaters!

Whoa!

[cheering]

What a thrilling finish
to the water race.

Now for the next event,
the air race.

Let's swim like
Arin and Aruzia did

when they fell in.

Yeah, it's fun, fun, fun.

Let's go!

[laughter]

The babies,
where are they?

That's kids for you.

One minute here,
the next minute, gone.

Have you seen
three baby Fobs?

Yeah, man, like, they were
heading for the beach
a little while ago.

Cute little guys.

-I'm tired.
-I'm cold.

-I'm wet.
-Let's get out.

It's far away.

-I'm scared.
-Me too.

All: Mommy! Daddy!
Help! Help!

Where are they?

Help, Mommy!

Oh, no!
They're way out there.

-Grubby.
-Teddy.

Both:
Our, babies.

Save our babies!

Hey,
it's Frank and Fae Fob.

What are they
yelling about, Grubby?

Help! Mommy! Daddy!

It's the baby Fobs.
And they're in trouble.

Don't worry. I'll save 'em.

Whoa!

[all cough]

I've got ya, kids.

You're all right now.

Good work, Grubby.

You baby Fobs were lucky.

All:
Uncle Grubby!

-Thanks.
-You saved us.

[laughs]

It's a good thing you've
been in an air race before,
Beanly.

Air race? I thought
you said "air raid."

On your marks.

[grunts]

You mean...

I've never
been in one of these
contraptions in my life.

Get set...

Go.

-Oh!
-No, no!

-The wrong way, Beanly.
-The wrong way!

I am going the wrong way.

Grunges:
Okay, let it loose.

Whoop.

[gasps]

Ugh.

[gasps]

Ugh!

[cheering]

That's pathetic.

I suppose I'd better
even out the odds.

[sighs]
Again.

Hmm.
I wonder what would happen
if I pulled this.

Teddy:
Leota's still in the lead.

And Ginnie's holding
second place.

How's Tweeg doin'?

I'd say he's
bouncing right along.

Teddy:
Oops. He missed again.

I wonder how
Old Beanly's doing.

[gasps]

Whoa!

Grubby:
Yikes.

Beanly:
Eh--Sorry!

Hey.

If Tweegy wasn't such
a bumbling idiot,

I wouldn't have to sink

to these cheap tricks.

[gasps]

My stupid-- Ugh.
Son. Ouch.

I'll...
get him for this.

Aah!

Come on, fellers!

We'll be able to watch Fuzz
better from up there.

-Do you see Fuzz?
-I don't.

Hey, Fuzz!

Uh-oh!

Yikes!
I'd better bail out.

Whoa!

Ooh.

Ooh, we better make sure
Fuzz is okay.

Whoa!

Hurry up, you idiots!

[gasps]

What happened to Tweeg?

Quite puzzling.

I don't see him.

Teddy: Yikes.

Ginnie's slowing up.

Yes, we seem to have
entered an area

of poor convection--
no updraft.

Oh, wow!

Like, bonus updraft.

More to the left.

No, no,
more to the right.

I say left.

I say right.

I told you
it was to the right.

[laughs]

-Find Fuzz!
-Come on, Wooly!

-Let's go!
-[Fuzz laughs]

Hi, Wooly.
Gimme a push.

Yahoo!

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 ♪

Louie:
What a finish. Tweeg's out.

And I do mean out.

Fuzz the Fob flopped
before the finish.

Beanly is barnstorming
over Bounder Pass.

Leota's leading
for the little people.

The airship is second,

and the surfer is soaring
sweetly into third place.

[crowd gasps]

It's Old Beanly.
Hit the dirt.

Well, that's strange.

I could have sworn

there was an airplane
underneath me.

Quick, everyone.
Join hands.

Beanly:
Get out of the way!

-Look out!
-Whoa!

Why, hello, everyone.

You wouldn't happen to know
where I've left my airplane,
would ya?

[laughter]
