01x24 - Room for Munchy

Post by bunniefuu »

All: ♪ I like homework, I like homework ♪

♪ It's like school work ♪

♪ But it's homework ♪

-Look at me, doing homework ahead of time.

Who knew that was a thing?

-Most people.

-Proud of you, girl.

-Has anyone seen my tool belt?

There's a light bulb
burnt out in the kitchen.

-Well, I tried.

Farewell, homework.

-Wait, what happened?
-It's my dad.

Once a year, for a
brief but intense period,

he starts to fix things.

It never goes well,

which is why I hid his tool belt

in a place he will never find it.

-[grunts] Found it!

It was wedged behind the
washer for some reason.

-So strange.

We got to go.

You guys want to hang out
in a parking lot or something?

-Sounds like you're
making excuses not to study.

-Yeah, your dad is just
changing a light bulb.

[power tools whirring]

Okay, we got to find
somewhere else to study.

-How about your house?

-Oh, no. That's not gonna work.

My aunt and uncle are
over with my ten cousins.

Combined with my
eight brothers and sisters,

it is more kids than I can
count, and I am good at math.

-What about your house?

-There's a... chipmunk infestation.

-I thought there was
a chipmunk infestation

last month.

-[nervously] Yep. It's a serious problem.

-Hey, you're always making excuses

of why we can't go to your house.

-What? That is so not true.

We can't go to my house.
There's a... radiation leak.

The... walls are bleeding.

Our... toilet is fighting back.

The house is shrinking.

Aurora borealis.

Thanos.

-Yeah, you make excuses every time.

-And now that I think about it,

I don't think I've ever been in your room.

-Me neither. Let's go right now.

-But what about studying?

-We all knew that wasn't
gonna happen. Come on.

[hammering]

-Hey!

Not so fast, Mr. Wizard.

-Hey, Dad. See you found your tool belt.

-Yep. I woke up this
morning feeling handy,

so I'm fixing that light bulb.

-So why are you hammering boards together?

-I forgot how little you know
about home improvement.

You can't reach a light
bulb without a ladder,

so I'm building one.

-Can't you just buy a ladder?

-Buy a man a ladder, and
he'll reach things for a day.

Teach him to build a ladder,

and he'll reach the sky.

-You know what, my fault for asking.

-Ooh, I got you something.

It's time Mr. Fix-It had a Fix-It Jr.

Put it on.

-For some reason, I feel powerful.

-That's the belt talking, son.

Now, grab a tool and
help me with this ladder.

-Which tool?
-Doesn't matter.

-This is my room.

Four walls, ceiling. Pretty typical.

So you guys want to hit that parking lot?

-This is not what I expected
your room to look like.

-Hi, girls.

I don't think I've ever seen you

in Munchy and Jaget's room before.

-Munchy and Jaget's room?

-That's right. And while you're here,

don't destroy anything with fireworks.

[both laugh]

I'm serious. Don't destroy anything.

-Wait, you share a room with--

-Who dares disturb my slumber?!

-I share a room with Jaget.

-It's not a room.

It's the Jagatorium.

-He calls our room the Jagatorium.

-If you share a room, then why
are all of the decorations his?

-Not all of them.

This is my area. Come on in.

Let me give you a quick tour.

This is some of my stuff.

That's where I sleep.

And that concludes the tour.

-It's nice. It just
feels a little cramped.

-Too much talking.

If I can't take my power nap, I'm leaving.

-Did he just walk into the closet?

-No, that's Jaget's other room.

-What?
-Other room?!

-What is this?

-This is Jaget's dojo.

-You are not permitted to be in here,

but since you are, let me show you around.

Here are my Jag-Jitsu weapons.

My Zen garden.

And my best friend,

Clint Kickwood.

-How is a piece of
cardboard your best friend?

-Yeah, and follow-up
question, who is Clint Kickwood?

-[gasps]

Clint Kickwood is a martial
arts action movie star.

He started out as a
crossing guard, just like me.

-It looks like someone stepped on it.

-No, that's his footprint.

He signs things by kicking them.

That's what makes this so special.

-Wait, why can't this be your bedroom

and Munchy can take the other room?

-You know, that makes a lot of sense.

-It can't be my bedroom,
because it's my dojo.

And one thing can't be two things.

-No, we are not leaving until we talk more

about Munchy getting his own room.

-What's that, Clint Kickwood?

I should grab my sparring sword
and chase them around the room?

Okay. You're the boss.

[all scream]

-♪ I got, you got me ♪

♪ We got this ♪

♪ I like the odds when we're side-by-side ♪

♪ I like the sound of that ♪

♪ Oh, we're taking off,
gonna do this right ♪

♪ I like the sound of that ♪

♪ And when things go
up in flames, we're on it ♪

♪ 'Cause I got you, got me, we got this ♪

-Okay, Munchy, here is a mirror

that will make your
three square feet of space

feel like six square feet of space.

-You know what would help with more space?

More space.

-Jaget has two rooms. I have a square.

-Munchy is making some good points.

-Presley makes a good
point about my good point.

You guys helped me realize that I was right

for asking for my own room.

-Absolutely.

I have four brothers and four sisters,

and even I have my own room.

I mean, it's an attic I had to
fight a colony of wasps over,

but it's mine.

-You may have eight
siblings, but I have one Jaget.

I've tried asking for my
own room dozens of times.

He always runs after me with a sword.

-Well, I bet if Jaget had
Jaget for a roommate,

he wouldn't put up with it.

-That's it. What if I act like Jaget?

-Would that work?
-Yes.

See, Jaget sees himself as a sensei.

There can't be two senseis.

So if I come in with
the same Jaget attitude,

he won't be able to take it.

-Well, do you think you can
really act like your brother?

-[as Jaget] You tell me.

Both: Whoa!

["The Greaterest" playing]

♪ ♪

-Clint Kickwood, hold this for me.

-♪ 'Cause Munchy is
greater than the greatest ♪

-Ooh, nice! Whoo!
-Wow.

He's good.

-What is going on?

-I'll tell you what's going on.

Life, power,

and the pursuit of dominance.

-Are you talking differently?

It sounds ridiculous.

-No, this is how I always talk,

Crosswalk Kid.

-He's showing us MMMA.

-That is Mixed Munchy Martial Arts.

-He's changing our lives.

-I'm changing all lives.

Let me demonstrate the power of MMMA.

I call this the Munch Punch.

[exclaims]

-Hey.

That's my Jaget of the Year plaque.

I only give this to myself once a year.

-Well, we would practice in Munchy's room,

but he doesn't have one.

-If you think I'm gonna allow you

to teach some made-up
martial arts in my room,

then you're absolutely right!

-We are?
-Yeah.

I've been keeping Jag-Jitsu
confined to my dojo,

but now that you're into karate stuff,

I can unleash my fury in here as well.

-No, I think that you misunderstand.

-I don't misunderstand.

If anything, I overstand.

You kids carry on.

I'm gonna tell Clint
Kickwood the good news.

Hey, Clint! You won't believe this!

[whirring]

-Dad, tell me again why
we're working on the refrigerator

if we're changing that light bulb.

-Think of the kitchen like the human body.

The light bulb is the heart.

It's connected to the refrigerator,

just like the heart is
connected to the belly.

-And why did we have to
take apart the garbage disposal?

-Whoa.

The garbage disposal is like the brain.

You need everything working in harmony

to have a healthy body.

Now do you see?

-Science doesn't support
anything you just said,

but it's fun using power tools!

-All right. I'm here.

Your text said something
about changing a light,

so I brought my power sander.

-Ooh, smart.

-And if we're working with electric,

you should turn off the water.

-I knew we were forgetting something.

Let's shut it off.

The valve is either in the
basement, shed, or roof.

-I'll bring a hammer, just in case.

[both laugh]

-He's new.

Grab the big one.

That's my boy.

-[grunts]

-Munchy, Jaget is not here.
You can stop trying to be him.

-Don't tell me when to stop.

Only I say when to stop.

Whoa. I am so sorry.

I think I went too deep. I'm back.

-Well, trying to be a
second Jaget didn't work.

Maybe we should go back to using mirrors

to make your square bigger.

-I don't want to go back to the square,

or an illusion of a bigger square!

I want my own room.

-We have to find a way to convince Jaget.

-How? He won't listen to reason.

-We need to get some leverage.

Follow me.
-Wait. Wait.

Isn't Jaget in there?
-Trust me.

Don't worry. Jaget's in a
deep, meditative trance.

He can't see or hear us.

-Are you sure?
-Yeah, he does this every day.

He visualizes himself and Clint

walking on an endless crosswalk.

-What's the plan?

-We take Clint Kickwood
and hold it for ransom

until he gives me my own room.

-[grunts]

-No, no, no! He knows the cutout is gone.

Do something before he wakes up!

-Got it.

-[sighs contentedly]

-Problem solved.

-[angrily] New problem created.

-Really?

-Hey, don't look at me like that.

I would have come back for you...

eventually.

[power tools whirring]

-Are your dad and Fisher
still working on that light bulb?

-Yeah, but luckily they take breaks

every minutes for popsicles.

[power tools stop]

Popsicle break.

-Okay. We need to hurry.

Jaget's gonna stop meditating soon.

-How's the ransom note coming, Lex?

-Oh, it is going so well.

I used glitter, pipe
cleaners, and googly eyes.

-How about the message?

-Not much room left,

but I will try to squeeze it in.

-Hey, have you guys seen my--

[gasps]

Clint Kickwood! What's going on here?

-Hey, stop right there!

-This is an industrial shredder.

If you take another step,

this is what happens to Clint Kickwood.

Ooh, she's hungry.

-What do you want?
-I want my own bedroom.

I didn't want to have to do it this way,

but I don't know what else to do.

-Where's this coming from, bro?

You were just doing MMMA and acting cool.

-There is no MMMA. It was all a lie.

-[gasps]

You monster.

If you want your own room that badly,

we can work something out, but first,

free Clint Kickwood.

-All right. I'll let him down.

No! [shreds]

[all scream]

My bad.

-Not only are you not
getting your own room,

you're not getting any room.

You're banned from the
Jagatorium and my dojo.

We are no longer roommates.

-I didn't even get to
give him my ransom note.

What am I gonna do with this?

-I feel so well rested.
-Me too.

I had the best sleep of my life last night.

-I had the worst sleep
of my life last night.

Jaget is still not letting
me into either of his rooms.

I had to sleep in the kitchen
with this lettuce for a pillow.

Jaget says that's my
room now until I move out.

-That is crazy.

-It's okay. I graduate in a few years.

I did the math,

and I only have to sleep
like this more times.

-We have to fix this.
-How?

Ever since we destroyed his
autographed Clint Kickwood

cut out, he won't even talk to me.

-Hmm...

Well, if he won't talk to Munchy,

we'll just have to get the
one person he will talk to.

-[snoring loudly]
-Munchy?

Munchy?

-Aw, he looks so peaceful.

-But we have to get
him up and get to work.

Luckily, another popsicle
break is gonna be over

in three, two, one.

[power tools whirring]
-[screams]

-Don't worry, Clint Kickwood.

I'm gonna make you whole again.

[knocks on door]

-Go away! Unless you're Munchy.

Then I didn't say anything,
cause I'm not talking to you.

-Kick one!

Awww!

-It you can't be! You're--

-Clint Kickwood!

Hiyah!

-What are you doing here?

-I was hired by a very sorry young man

to come talk to you.

-I'm the very sorry young man.

-No, absolutely not.

-Now you hold it right there, sunshine!

I was hired to help you
two solve your problems.

And I'm gonna do it. That's right.

Clint Kickwood doesn't just kick stuff.

I fix stuff!

-Sorry, Mr. Kickwood. I'm
just too mad at my brother.

-I get it.

It reminds me of when I
did the movie "Double Kick."

I had to fight my most powerful enemy yet,

myself.

-It was amazing!

You played twin brothers!

It was your best performance ever,

and second best.

-Thank you.

But the real fight wasn't
solved by using these.

It was solved by using these.

Now let's kick around some truths.

You, go first!

-I messed up and destroyed
something my brother loved,

but I did it because I want my own room.

-Nice sharing.

Your turn!

-I looked after Munchy his whole life.

We only started sharing
a room in the first place

because of him.

-What does that mean--
-Whoa!

Did you play a therapist
by day and assassin by night

in "The Doctor is in Your Face"?!

No, I'll ask the questions.

What does that mean?

-You remember when we
first moved here from Norway?

-Not really. I was pretty young.

-Well, you got your own
room, but everything was new

and you were so scared
you kept having nightmares.

So I started sleeping in
your room, and it worked.

You weren't scared anymore.

-I don't remember this at all.
-Well, it happened.

You made me promise
to never leave you alone.

And I never break promises.

-Bro...
-It's like a kick in my heart.

[emotionally] Keep going. Keep going.

-Maybe I went too far.

You're not a little kid anymore.

-I may be older now, but I'll
always need my big brother.

-Aw...

-Just sometimes from another room.

-Fair.

-[shakily] Finish him.

-Clint Kickwood does it again!

Kick one!

Both: Ooh!

-I just autographed your wall.

You've earned it.

Now I really need to go call my brother.

-And... done!

-Let's light it up.

-Fix-It Jr., would you
like to do the honors?

-Sure would.

Okay, this is for all the haters

who thought we'd never
be able to pull this off,

which until this morning, included me.

Three, two, one.

-[cackles]
-Yes!

-We did it!

Boop.
-Boop.

-Boop. All: Boop!

[laughter]

[rumbling]

[zapping]

-Fisher, turn it off!

-I'm trying!

[crashes]

[whirring]

-We're under att*ck!

-Take cover!

[powers down]

-That was crazy.

-Same thing happened to
me when I fixed my toaster.

-Hey, look, the light
we fixed still works.

-That's right, son.

When we set out to do something, we do it.

Now go grab a broom.

I'm gonna start calling some repairmen.

-Good night, Munchy.

-Good night, Jaget.

Good night, Lex. Good night, Presley.

-Goodnight, Munchy.

-Goodnight, Science Kid.

Goodnight, Science Kid's Dad.
-Good night, Jaget.

-Thanks again for letting us stay here.

The repairman said our
house should be livable

in about a week.

-You know, I'm here too.

All: Good night, Clint Kickwood.

-By the way, I should warn you,

I kick in my sleep.

-All right, guys. Enough chit-chat.

Get some sleep.

You've all got big days tomorrow.

Both: Good night, Dad.
All: Good night, Tedward!

-Kick one!

-Ow!
-You were warned.
