02x13 - Flex to the Future

Post by bunniefuu »

-Hurry, the red carpet is starting

for "Flex to the Future."

-I can't believe there's a
real Hollywood movie premiere

happening in Altoonisburg, and we can't go.

-And I can't believe people
like chocolate covered raisins.

I was wrong. These are good!

-This movie has got everything,

time travel, k*ller fight scenes,

and the biggest action star in the world,

Bruno Bicep.

How are we not there?

-The invite list was super exclusive.

Nobody could get tickets.

-I got tickets to the premiere!

-What?
-Are you serious?

-How?
-No way, how?

-I got them for working on a movie with my hero.

Check this out.

[dramatic music]

-Hot dogs, get your hot dogs.

-You're in the movie? How?

-And follow-up question,

why are you selling hot dogs in an alley?

-Quiet or you'll miss the best part,

which is all of it.

Hey, Mister. Do you want a hot dog?

-Normally, I'd say yes and get all the fixings,

but I'm here to meet my partner.

-Oh, my gosh, Meryl Squeak is in this?

She's the best guinea
pig actor of our generation!

-Uh-oh, my muscles are tingling.

That means the punching's about to start.

♪ ♪

-Hah!

♪ ♪

-Rah!
-[grunts]

♪ ♪

-Oh!

♪ ♪

-Oh, my...

♪ ♪

-Stay with me, hot dog man.

In five years, you serve a hot dog

that saves the world.

-I don't think I'm gonna make it.

Dying!

♪ ♪

-No!

-Oh, my, are you crying?

-I'm gonna flex us back in time

to make sure this never happens.

[grunts]

-Wow.

-How was my big brother
in a movie with Bruno Bicep,

and I didn't know about it?

What else don't I know about you?

[gasps]

Are you actually my little brother?

-Why didn't you tell us?

-I had to sign a nondisclosure agreement.

That's Hollywood speak
for, "Keep your mouth shut."

-You're so lucky you get to go to the premiere.

-And you're lucky you know me

because I have tickets for all of us.

-What?
-No way!

Wait, we're gonna be your guests?

-No, gross.

I want to impress Bruno Bicep,

so I'm bringing you as my entourage.

-What exactly does an entourage do?

We follow behind him and say things like,

"Jaget is amazing."

He makes me do it when our grandparents visit.

-I've always wanted to walk the red carpet.

It'll get me ready for my
future job, being famous.

-Oh, my gosh, I want to
meet Meryl Squeak so bad!

-So get ready.

We're already missing the pre-pre-pre red carpet.

-Sounds good, I just have to check on my snake.

-Snake?

You just became the second
most interesting person

in this room.

Show me.

-These red carpet photos
will live on the internet forever.

We need to wear the perfect outfits.

-Oh, I have the perfect outfit.

-Me too.
-Okay.

Let's change and get back here.
-Okay.

-Well, I have an outfit too,
but I guess no one cares.

[upbeat music]

♪ ♪

-This is Jake the snake.

He's our class pet that I'm
watching for the weekend.

-I had a snake just like him when I was a kid,

except he had four legs.

-That's a lizard.
-You're a lizard.

-I'm worried he's sick
because he hasn't been eating.

-I know what'll make you feel better,

watching my performance in "Flex to the Future."

-I'm just gonna go change for the premiere.

-Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm talking to the snake.

Here you go, you lucky snake.

♪ ♪

-I know you're in here
somewhere, chicken nugget.

-Dad!

-Yes, Presley?
-Tell me when Lex gets here!

We want to see our outfits for
the premiere at the same time.

-Yes, I love a fashion reveal!

-It's Lex!

And reveal!

Both: You're wearing the same outfit?

Why would you do that? Stop copying me.

Stop copying me!

-♪ I got, you got me ♪

♪ We got this ♪

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

♪ 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, obviously this is a hilarious mix-up.

You both chose the same outfit

for Bruno Bicep's movie premiere

and are a little upset.

Let's all take a deep breath
and say something nice

about the other person.

-You look amazing

in my outfit!

-And my outfit really brings out your eyes.

-I love your earrings,

which is why I picked them first.

-Those shoes are perfect

for you to walk upstairs to change!

-Well, sounds like I made things worse.

Good luck!

-This is just like in fifth grade

when we decided to show up to picture day

wearing the same romper.

-I remember.

All of the kids and some of the meaner teachers

made fun of us.

-And for the rest of the year,

they called us the Romper Twins.

-That's not happening again, okay?

This is my one chance to be on a red carpet.

So you need to change.

-But I want to stand out
when I meet Meryl Squeak.

So you need to change.

-Fine, let's handle this like adults

and decide who wears it by playing a game.

-Fine, loser has to change.
-Rock, Paper, Scissors?

-You're on.

Both: Rock, paper, scissors, sh**t!

Rock, paper, scissors, sh**t!
Rock, paper, scissors, sh**t!

Rock, paper, scissors, sh**t!

-We keep choosing the same thing.

-Aww, we really are best friends.

Now stop picking what I pick!

-Okay, this isn't working.
Let's try something else.

I forgot we're both horrible at hula hooping.

-Hey, the Romper Twins are back.

Both: Don't call us that.

Stop copying me!

-Hey, great tuxedo.
-Thank you.

But this isn't a tuxedo.

You see, I don't want to wait in line for snacks

at the premiere, so I made this,

the Snaxedo, the tuxedo for snacks.

-Munchy, are you a genius?

-I'll let historians decide.

Turkey leg?

-Keep it warm for me.

-Will do, because I have a thermal-lined pocket,

and this one is gravy.

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I'm gonna take everything

from the snack hole and put it in this jacket.

-That's impossible.

-My Snaxedo makes the impossible possible.

[cell phone rings]

-Oh, hey, Ty.
-What's up, guys?

Just wanted to let you know I
might be late for the premiere.

-Oh, you're going too?
-Yeah, yeah, Jaget asked me.

Apparently, you have to have at least five people

or the entourage doesn't count.

-Well, glad you're coming,
but why are you running late?

-Well, the Mooery has a policy to not close

until the last customer leaves,

and there's still one customer here.

-Well, that shouldn't take long.

-The customer is Gerald.

-[gasps]

Gerald, the slowest moving man in town?

-Oh, no, I dropped my billfold.

-This might take a while.

-There's no way Jaget is gonna leave

without his full entourage.

Gerald is gonna make us late.

-I can go help Ty move him along.

-I thought you were busy
emptying the snack hole.

-Done, Snaxedo, the tuxedo for snacks.

-Okay, we've got to figure
out who's gonna wear this.

-Let's have a foot race around the block.

Finish line is Fisher's room.

-That's a terrible idea.

Three, two, one, go!
-No!

♪ ♪

-We gotta get a move on.

The pre-pre-pre red carpet is over,

and the pre-pre red carpet has started.

We're gonna run out of pre's.

-Bruno, a lot of Hollywood stars traveled

to Altoonisburg for your premiere.

-Speaking of stars, here's
the biggest one here tonight.

You know, it was Meryl Squeak

who first convinced me to get into acting.

-Oh, man, we gotta get down there!

Everybody, hurry up!

Now that's the timely response
I expect from my entourage.

-Which one of us got here first?

-You both got here at the same time, late.

-Presley, why are you dressed like Lex?

-Lex is dressed like me.
-Mm, she wears it better.

-Thank you.

-Pipe down, we gotta get to the red carpet.

They're already interviewing Meryl Squeak.

Look.

Where's my phone? It was right there in the cage.

-You put your phone in the snake's cage?

-That's right.

-Your phone that was showing a guinea pig

to my hungry snake?

-Mm-hmm.

-Your phone that has the
tickets to the premier on it?

-Yes, now stop asking me questions,

and let's get to my movie premiere.

-Well, we can't because
the snake ate your phone.

-That's ridiculous.

[cell phone ringing]

That proves nothing.

-Oh, boy, I love a good milkshake.

-All right, Ty, I'm here to help.

-What are you wearing?

-I don't have time to explain it,

but it's a tuxedo I designed

to smuggle snacks into the premiere.

I guess I did have time.

-Well, we can't leave yet.

Gerald's been drinking the same milkshake

for the last minutes.

-Oh, no, brain freeze.

-Okay, we gotta get him out of here,

so we can get to the premiere.

-Well, I do have this -foot straw

that you could secretly
use to drink his milkshake.

-You get me.

-Oh, dear, my laces are untied.

-I drink your milkshake.

-Okay, I just looked it up,
and the snake is gonna be fine.

We just have to wait up to hours

for the phone to appear naturally.

-You mean get pooped out?
-I do.

-Okay, but how are we
going to get into the premiere

without the tickets on your phone?

-I don't know, but we're going,

and I am wearing this outfit.

-No, I am wearing this outfit.

-It's not gonna matter
unless we can get the tickets

out of that snake.

Guys, where's the snake?

-The snake is gone.
-Well, find it!

-Oh, no!

-You guys are the worst entourage ever!

[upbeat music]

-I can't find the snake anywhere.

-Keep looking.

-He must've gotten out of this room.

We have to search the house.

-Okay, maybe we should split up into teams,

so we can cover more ground.

-Yes, first one to find the
snake gets to wear the dress.

-You're on. I pick Fisher.

-Dang it!

-I promise I'll be your devoted teammate,

pledging my undying love to you.

-I already regret this.

-She chose poorly.

All you have to do is call my phone,

and we'll follow the ringtone right to the snake.

-Yeah, yeah, I'll just call you.

-What are you waiting for?

You don't have my number, do you?

-Well--
-I cannot believe this.

We've been neighbors for years.

Let me peruse your menu.

I'll start at the top.

-Oh.

-The Micro Mooery.

We have somewhere really important to go.

"Flex to the Future"?

him at the exact same time.

Both: Dang it, we tied again.

-I think I have an idea.

We can scan the tickets through the snake.

We just have to bring him to the premiere.

-Yes, I'll wear the snake down the red carpet

surrounded by my entourage,

and my hero, Bruno Bicep, will be so impressed.

It'll be majestic.

-Sorry we're late.
-Where's Munchy?

-He's waddling over right now.

He loaded up his Snaxedo at the Mooery.

wearing the same thing now.

I actually kind of like that
