stop sign ticket what is that thing why is it bad dad's got to go to court we'll

worry about this later hey this isn't for Dad it says

it's for molio songwriter for the band generational you're accused of

plagiarism no I didn't do it what is that it means one of your

songs violates the copyright of an existing song yeah and what does that

mean it means you copied welcome to the dark side sis who says I copied one of

their songs the dancing sherts and five and six and seven and

eight now that was fun it was funny fun

funny fun good line unexpected company there's no such

thing when you're candy dish is full the lemonade is cold and your greeting is

cheery welcome why did you say I copied well look sis it's our good friend molio

just because we both live in Appleton and you used to be famous doesn't make you my friends well that's just silly

Malo you simply must come in much better warm light favors me not as much as you

think ouch zinged me good line who's your writer nobody listens to your music

anyway why would I copy you H regrettably that's a matter for the

courts now we shouldn't comment but your song The Shadow song clearly borrows

from our popular hit a okay hit I've never heard of it I can't see how that's

possible after all it was the second cut off rcd fading memories big seller for a

limited release in Micronesia Micronesia how could I hear a song you sold only in

Micronesia hello just a second I'll ask it's the radio news they want to know if you're

here to admit you're guilty or if it's a social call the Shubert's music is dumb

and I don't even know where Micronesia is I'm in the third grade and we're still doing

continents you expect us to believe you've never toured Micronesia fascinating country you really must go

in fact you really must go oh wow he's the master it's all in the

timing spirited girl shall we practice the steps that made us The Darlings of Yap we have to be ready for our

triumphant performance in [Music]

court hey hey hey yeah yeah yeah yeah hey hey

hey hey okay while my song's still in my

mind I want to hear the shirts where did you find that discount then at the pet shop let's hear what they say I

copied when we crouchy rainy day that little silver

Ling is just a smile away look here comes Mr Sunshine to touch up all

your so keep your problems to yourself okay

hey they're crazy my song sounds nothing like that yeah except the verse ends

with hey so does Our Song and that's supposed to mean I copied that's not how

I thought of that hay I was watching Chad's cat eat and I tried to make my mouth look like hers remember Chad then

you started doing it faster yeah and I kind of forgot about the cat I guess cuz I figured out you can make your mouth

make words poor old Michael fin Again Begin Again hey and that's when I got

the idea for the hay yeah if anybody should be suing you it's my cat now you

don't think I steal other people's stuff do you well no you paused why' you pause

with pop songs there's only so many Tunes you can write you've got these

four cords I just played 80% of the songs ever

written if you think like that we're all copers uh-uh you know that stuff in your

head that you think but don't say or if I do say it I get the weird looks that

stuff that's what makes your songs your own but how do I know it wasn't in

somebody else's head first trust yourself little holer you are you and

only you are I better be so sis now that you're on my

team you want a few legal pointers you've never been in court my whole

life's been one big trial I'm always explaining how I didn't do something but

you usually did sure but I play dumb that's an act okay listen and learn if

the judge says did you copy you said could you define Cappy well then he said

take somebody else's song you said say take it where then he says have you ever

sung a song that wasn't yours so you say sure jingle bells jingle bells you know

you can go on like that for hours hi hun we were just going over some legal strategy with your Colonel so what do we

do first off we need some witnesses people to establish your character I'm

there appreciate it buzz but what we needed someone who actually likes her

I'm gone oh you got to do is tell the judge you know me real well and I never copy

you mean like in court sure I want to I

definitely want to can't do it What You Won't Back me up I don't think it helps

for someone like me to speak on your behalf what a friend no a criminal you

broke the law what' you do kept a book from the library too

long that can't be such a bad thing it is when it's 17 years overdue 17 years I

like to read really slow but that's all cleared up now right one more chapter to

go you'll tell him won't you Eddie in court Molly you're my baby cousin I

watch over you I love you and I would do anything for you no you wouldn't I know

but that's what people will think you need someone besides me to say you're honest there must be someone one who can

help okay I'm in trouble BL BL blap and

the words are like I don't know hair dye sunny sun Okie doie it's weird that's

going to be a pretty big change for you musically no that's the Schubert song I was just telling you in case the judge

guy calls you and you can tell them I'm not a copier what are you doing butterscotch pudding and milk makes a

scrumptious butterscotch Shake I wonder if it works with

vanilla okay here goes do Joy Chesterton

okay anyway Colonel Bob says the sherts will never prove anything as long as

they don't come around here at lunchtime what does that mean well you

just copied the way Joey chesteron gargles food only because I asked her

but what about my pudding sh you copied that didn't you I wanted to try it what's all wrong

about that hey we're kind of your friends and if we think you copy what's

a judge going to think how can you say you're my friends and still say I copied

Molly o you're not my friends you're not okay be that way come on let's sit

somewhere else Meredith gory's spoon drip Technique No I don't think that it's a

dumb way to eat pudding anyway I'm never doing it again hey forget him let's do

the swing thing okay wait I saw that at the circus we could play lunch bag tag

if Edie hadn't started it can't do the Frankenstein Cod thing can't talk about can't act like can't can't can't I can't

even walk this way what are you talking about you always walk that way so now

I'm even coping myself it Chad they're right I'm just a big fat

copier so I can't believe the cops chased you 17 years over a library book

I think what really got to them was the taunting notesa kept sending sorry I'm

late since my dad got that Ticky drives extra slow come on let's

play one two one 2 3 stop what's with the nose packing you like it ordinary

household cotton but it's totally my idea to use it to get a new singing sound not really a guy in the 60s did

the cotton thing but I think he was trying to train his nostrils wider oh

well how about this I had some trouble with the words but it's new right you're

probably too young to remember those in the lobsters okay well this I know no

one's done that I haven't seen thank heavens

see I don't copy you've got to stop worrying about this case you'll beat

them oh no I never realized my waist was smaller than my head I've been agonized

over how to tell you can I get some help here let me understand your

understanding you think the songs are the same but look at this chart notice

the placement of the haze one song could definitely be derived from the other and

this is what you'll tell the judge exactly so turn it off

mom what if the judge believes the shirts will'll lose and no one will like my music the Colonel's coming tonight to

reval the case and I'm sure it's going to be good news okay

okay it's all over school you stole that Shubert song who would say stuff like

that about me well actually I did another thief in the family I couldn't

be more proud get off me we're going to team up your innocent

looks my brilliant Mastermind here's the pitch these are plans to most of the

downtown offices this weekend we'll get inside then using a few dozen trained

pigeons we'll make sure Appleton has a Monday morning it won't soon forget

Molly a come on help me out here huh Thief to Thief I'm not a thief so I had

this idea for a song about how they say no two snowflakes are alike but nobody knows that cuz nobody's looked at them

all well how's it start I'm flaky you're fake no oh wait

that sounds like the opening to the powder Girls song there I'm play wait that sounds

like that song about the flag I'm flaky no I'm FL no I'm flat no I'm I'm I'm

never going to write anything new it's over Chad there's nothing left to write or if there is it's going to be written

by some really amazing person not a big copy cat who even copies cats what I

copied your cat molo you don't copy I do

and nothing you can ever say will make me more original that's it I'm done it's

over well maybe that's for the best what well if you're out of ideas I'm not out

of ideas well you're using other people's no I'm not I'm using the ones that come out of my head come on if

you're reheating old dance and Shubert songs maybe it's time to quit I didn't reheat their song what I didn't copy

their song I can't hear you I didn't copy their stupid old song I didn't copy

Chad all that stuff it came out of me I know it so do I well I'm going to make

sure everybody else knows it too Molly over

here welcome what do you want just admit that

you copied our song Never I'd give up singing first we can only hope ouch

Zinger well we tried good luck malio you really creep me

out case number 179 dancing sherts versus

molio good morning I'm judge huy imight we're here to Det determin the

charge of plagiarism in the first degree in other words copying is the defendant represented by

an attorney I asked if Molly o is represented by an attorney I

object you can take that as a no very well danen Schubert's your opening

statement your honor we trust the system and in the fairness of this trial but

just in case we brought up a mountain of proof your honor we have a phone bill

retrieved from the trash at the O Family Residence it's Mucky you can't make out

anything are they trying to hide calls to Micronesia that's possible and here cash

register stubs exactly the size used in micronesian cash registers reflecting

harmless purchases here at home or and this is our belief representing the sale

of rcd to Molly o herself this evidence is all circumstantial you bet it is

circumstantial evidence is not good oh well there's our music expert we'll hear

from him shortly Malo it's your turn you're accused of something very serious

do you understand the charges remember deny everything your honor I do these

people say I copied their song and I never did if you listen to my song and

theirs you'll hear that well that's my plan Schubert you're up opening act for

Generation oh it's the big time all right let's do

it problems are like pimples always out of place squeeze them or ignore them

just keep a happy face look here comes M

scrub to dry so keep your problems to yourself

could use this courtroom to play to a live audience your honor why I no we are

very much in demand Molly o clearly isn't a copier case

dismissed oh man feel pretty good about yourself yeah I knew my stuff was my

stuff thanks for reminding me don't thank me thank the shirts I think I

a relief nub is there anything we can do not to worry I've got a book to read

I've got a bunch of ideas to try out can up take his base with them we can stand outside the window and still practice together does he get a window maybe we

should try to get into the cell next to him if they have enough places to plug in the fires and stuff would they just let us in to visit or do we need to get

arrested or [Music]
