(WHIRRING)

(GRUNTING)

(CLANGS)

Ow!

Oh, for the love of absolutely nothing, Toot.

Keep it down!

You're disturbing my customers!

(SNORING)

(SQUEAKS)

- Start the board meeting without me.

(SNORING)

Oops.

Is my new Kawabashi Leaf Ninja set in show-off mode?

That's 500 CCs just champing at the bit.

(REVS BLOWER)

- Ow!

My black-market cochlear implant!

Now let me blow something else.

Your mind.

Ow! My black market LASIK surgery!

The youth hockey team that I sponsor and coach won the championship this year.

Trophies are what they give to winners, when they win.

F. Y. I.

Okay, stuff like this is why Gayle left you.

No one knows why Gayle left me, except for Gayle and my more-handsome brother.

But don't let my success get to you, Moe.

Remember, just because something good happens to me, you're a giant loser.

Anyway, just something for you to stew on.

Right. Sure I am. Me, stew. No way.

Not stew, not me. No stew.

- Hey, Stu.

- (CHUCKLES)

Me, stew?

I ain't spending one second

replaying my failures.

(CHUCKLES)

Like how I don't got no money,

I got no education.

My mattress is a pallet of flyers

I was supposed to deliver.

How I was invited to

five different dinners

for schmucks in one week.

I only got one lightbulb,

which I got to take from room to room.

How every sex cult I join

turns into a su1c1de cult.

I'm a speck.

No, I'm-I'm less than a speck.

I'm nothing but, uh I'm a scuzz.

Moe, what gives?

You've been dwelling on your

failures for ten months.

Why didn't you stop me?

'Cause then we'd have

to touch your shoulder.

(ALL SHUDDER)

Soccer season is over.

The conquering participant returns.

Congratulations, sweetie.

I know how hard you

strived to participate.

It wasn't easy,

but I did the bare minimum.

Thanks for driving me to games

every Saturday, Dad.

Well, I knew it wouldn't last forever.

And now, with soccer season over,

sitting season

begins.

Homer, get up.

Bart's first junior

hockey game is today.

But-but kids' sports was over!

It's great father-son bonding.

No. It's me driving while

Bart looks at his phone.

Then it's Bart playing

while I look at my phone.

Then me driving home while

we both look at our phones.

That's what kids' sports is.

Can I have some money

to bet on the games?



(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

- (WHISTLE BLOWS)

- Okay, diapers.

I'm gonna tell you something

no coach ever had the heart

to say to his players.

You are only here to fix

my emotional problems.

Yeah!

We're 20 games away

from me getting a trophy

and six payments away from

me owning this whistle.

Now, you all know the game plan.

We suck except Bart,

so give him the stupid puck

and then shut our stupid mouths,

you stupid pukes.

Yeah, good job, uh, kid who ain't Bart.

Now let's go watch Bart do this!

(CHEERING)



(SCOREBOARD BUZZES)

(CHEERING)

Oh, you're so done, Toot.

(WHOOPS)

(LAUGHTER)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(WHISPERING)

(GRUNTS)

Ow, ow, ow, ow, ouch

Oops. My biggest guy

took out your scorer.

Hey, feel free to retaliate

with your biggest kid.

Hmm.

Put me in, Coach.

I'll rip him limb from limb.

(GRUNTING)

Let me at him. (GRUNTS)

(GRUNTING)

- The net ate my hockey cookie.

- (AUDIENCE CHEERING)

(CRYING)

(BUZZES)

(GROANING)

Wha

(GASPS)

(GRUNTS)

Oh, thank heavens.

An adult has arrived to help me.

No, no, no. I'm just here to observe.

(GRUNTS)

Uh, how would you like to play hockey?

Haw-haw key?

It's the most messed-up

sport in the world.

It's like a prison riot

but with less rules.

And you, you would play

the best position of all

the goon.

Goon

Pretty word.

What it mean?

It's that sweet spot between

a thug and an enforcer.

Anyone who comes near the

best players on the team,

the goon turns their face into mustard.

(CHUCKLES) You're exactly

what my team needs.

Team? I don't do teams.

Sorry.

Not my pierogies!

My Oma makes them but once a week.

(GROANS) I got to deal with this.

Nah, I get it.

People look at scuzzes like

us like we got the plague.

Which, when I did,

it weren't even bubonic.

Our schedule,

in case you change your mind, there.

Maybe we'll both find out

what it feels like to be winners.

- (GRUNTING)

- Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm.

Full steam ahead, lads.

We make for the goal,

and damn their neutral zone trap.

(LAUGHING)

Oh, another weekend

m*rder*d by kids' sports.

How come this is the

only league in the world

without a labor dispute?

Unionize, cowards!

SEA CAPTAIN: Yarr!

(GRUNTS) I'm getting k*lled out there!

So you get a little dinged up.

You ever seen the children's

wing at the hospital?

They got murals on the walls.

You'll love it.

Everywhere you look

rainbow, rainbow, rainbow.

The whole league knows

all they have to do

is b*at me up and they win.

Yeah, you're right, it's hopeless.

There ain't nobody who's

gonna walk into this rink

and turn me into a winner.

No how, no when.

Did somebody order a psycho?

Oh.

Where do you want me, Crotch?

Uh, it-it's "coach."

But just get out there.

Get out there and do your thing.

(GRUNTS)



(BUZZING)

- We won!

- We did it!

- Oh, my gosh!

- (CHEERING)

- My life has meaning!

- (BLOWING WHISTLE)

As I've been screaming

for the last 15 minutes,

- all players must be wearing skates.

- Oh, come on.

There's no way that that

Oh, there it is.

Rule number one: "No cafeteria trays."

The Bar Flyers forfeit.

The game is over.

ALL: Aw!

You said I'd get to win.

All I did was make everyone else

a loser, too.

Loser? No, no,

you-you were amazing out there.

- I was?

- Kid, you are a natural born goon.

A real diamond in the urinal.

All you need is some training.

And I'm gonna make sure that

you learn from the best.

Welcome to Top Goon.

It's beautiful.

I'm gonna learn so hard, Moe.

- I won't let you down.

- I know you won't, kid.

- What was that?

- Oh, I just tousled your hair.

Ain't nobody ever done that before?

Uh..

Keep going.

Yeah, my arm's getting

a little tired, here.

- That's your problem.

- (SIGHING): All right.

Welcome to Top Goon.

I'd like to introduce

you to your faculty,

the most feared men to ever lace 'em up.

Dave "The Hammer" Schultz.

That's just a nickname.

My given name is David

"The Hammer" Schultz.

Stu "The Grim Reaper" Grimson.

I look sane, but trust me, I'm not.

You'll see.

(GROWLY): You'll all see.

And Tiger Williams.

Your instructor for Basic Pummeling

and, time permitting,

The American Novel: 1930 to the Present.

(GROWLS)

As a goon, you have one job on the ice:

protect your team's best scorer.

We call that person your "primary."

This is the most important

person in your life.

Who's the best scorer

on your team, Muntz?

- Bart Simpson.

- Then Bart Simpson is your primary.

Don't forget it.

- Who do we protect?

- ALL: Our primary.

And what do we do for our primary?

ALL: Protect them.

And who do we protect?

Our primary?

This kid's good.

Mm

Aw

Huh?

Hey, sorry I'm late.

I couldn't unlock the Maps app.

(CHUCKLING): My phone don't

recognize my face as a face.

I can't believe you came!

I wouldn't miss this for

my own mother's funeral.

I made that choice and I'm good with it.

Hey, Moe. How's it going?

You know these guys?

I used to be the bartender

in the penalty box

at the Philadelphia Spectrum.

(CHUCKLES) My tip jar was full of teeth.

I got Phil Esposito's

whole mouth somewheres.



Muntz, recite the goon code.

I am a goon. I protect my primary.

And that's pretty much it.

Nelson Muntz, you've out-thugged

every gorilla in your class.

You are Top Goon!



I did not bad?

Hey, you did more than that.

You did not horrible.

Now come on, I got a graduation

present lined up for youse.

From up here, the wads look like ants.

Hey, you-you want to drop

pickled eggs on them?

Sure!

Yeah, Duff lets me use their blimp

'cause I buy up all the beer

that the employees drown in.

Pretty sweet for a couple of scuzzes.

Yeah, it's a big world down there, kid.

And when its back is turned,

you can steal anything you want from it.

Oh, that egg just hit a cop's horse.

Floor it, Jimmy! Floor it!

(REVVING)

(MOANING)

Great. I have to drive 50 miles

to spend my entire weekend

freezing my ass off.

Stone-cold sober,

sitting in seats with no backs,

making awkward conversation

with dads who share way too much

about their marriages

I told Sarah when we got married,

"I am a foot guy."

Please guess the one part of the body

she just doesn't moisturize?

Seriously, guess. Guess!

- Please, just guess.

- Oh

Nelson, could I interest you

in a little skate?

(GROANS) I could stretch my legs.

(THUDDING)

Bart's my primary. I protect my primary.

What happened here is a

result of your actions.

(SCOREBOARD BUZZES)

Wow. Your kid's got real talent.

No-game recognize game, yo.

Shut up! Shut up, all of you!

Don't you see?

There's nothing worse

than your kid being

so amazing at something

you can't blow it off!

So, what's your old lady's

footwear situation at night?

Uh, socks?

No socks?

All right, all right,

tomorrow is the finals.

(WHOOPS) Hockey's gonna be over!

- If we win, it's on to the regionals.

- D'oh!

- Then states.

- D'oh!

- Tri-states.

- D'oh!

Quad-states, nationals,

and then tri-nationals.

(MOANING)

But first, we take on King Toots' team.

The same puck-nuts what

humiliated us the last time.

But I know we're gonna win this game,

because we got our little hotshot MVP.

That's right, our Most Violent Puncher.

- Nelson Muntz.

- (GASPS) - Huh?

(BART GRUMBLES)

(CHEERING)

I score every goal on this team.

- (PHONE CHIMES)

- And who the hell is texting me?

"Estee Dionne Malip?"

Uh, does anybody know what this, uh,

"Estee Dionne Malip" is about?

Hey, I'm dealing

with an Estee Dionne Malip?

Anybody? I don't even know

who the hell I got this from.

(GROANS) I'm just gonna

send it to my junk.

(LAUGHING)

What? What is-what is funny about that?

- (LAUGHING)

- (GRUNTS)

Show some respect to Coach.

Why? His car

is a converted washing machine

and his wallet is a rat trap.

- (SNAPS)

- (GROANING) Aah!

(LAUGHING)

Simpson's dead.

Bart Simpson is your primary.

Bart Simpson is your primary.

(CHUCKLING): Oh, he is such a scuzz.

So am I.

You're not my primary. He is.

- (GRUNTS)

- Ow!

(GASPING)

(PANTING)

- (GROANING)

- Doc, is he gonna be all right?

Yes. But I'm afraid his

travel hockey season is over.

(MUFFLED GRUNT)

(HOMER WHOOPS)

(MOANING)

What what have you done?

Bart was our only chance to win.

You were supposed to

protect your primary!

I I was.

Like hell you was.

Why'd I ever believe in you?

Y-You're just a fist. Nothing more.

Get off of my team!

(GULPS)

Don't look at me. I'm not crying!

(SOBBING)

(GRUNTS)

I just feel like "hockey team"

is still a smidge too big.

Do you have any smaller letters?

I'm no goon. I'm just a fist.

And this last stop in hell

is where I belong.

(INHALES, EXHALES)



Afternoon there, ma'am.

Uh, I'm Moe Szysl

Yeah, can you hurry it up?

I got to eat this when

it's fresh off the zapper.

It's about your kid.

I was his hockey coach

and I yelled some stuff

that might have kicked

his heart in the plums.

Oh, so you're Coach Sizzle-slacks,

the guy he calls his primary.

What? Nelson thinks I'm his primary?

- You sure about this?

- Yup.

He yelled the whole

story at the window dog.

(GROWLING)

Nelson wasn't being a

psycho towards Bart.

He was being a goon for me.

Do you know where he went?

He said something about

walking the streets.

Coming to a fateful decision or whatnot.

Eh. Kid stuff.

I got to find him before

he does something crazy.

Nelson Muntz.

Your reputation precedes you.

I hear you're a dingus to be respected.

I'm just a fist with no code.

Figure I'll be working

for you sooner or later,

so why not get it over with?

I have a gift for smelling

out good henchmen.

(SNIFFING)

I'm getting hints of

barely-suppressed rage

with top notes of

"nothing matters" and

(SNIFFING)

a deep finish of abandonment

by a male role model.

Smell all you want.

It won't fix anything.

Just tell me who to hurt.

Want me to get him a lead pipe?

Let's start him out easy. PVC.

How you doing, son? Can you move?

A little, but it hurts.

I meant can you move off the couch.

I'm about to enjoy my first

hockey-free weekend in months.

Ooh, hockey!

(GRUNTING)

Homer, get up.

You and Bart are gonna be late.

What? He's useless. Doc said so.

He can't play any sport

that I have to drive him to.

He has physical therapy,

and the only place

that takes our insurance

is three hours away.

If they ask, Bart is a veteran.

Oh

Mr. Mayor,

I believe you know the founder

of this vaguely-purposed

yet tax-exempt charity,

my goomar.

Mistresses are the

lifeblood of our community.

Private event. No pictures.

Well done, Nelly No-Sleeves.

If you'll excuse me,

my men and I have some

perfectly innocent business

to attend to in the back room.

God bless back rooms.

You know why you're here.

You borrow money from me,

I expect to be repaid.

Time to make your bones.

NELSON: Lead.

This is all I am.

MOE: Stop!

Nelson, listen to me before

you done did something

you can't done undid.

Whoever's under that

hood don't deserve this.

- They're a human being.

- Moe!

Aw, thank you, old buddy. (WEAK CHUCKLE)

Oh, not youse!

You got to help me out.

I only borrowed money from the mafia

to buy fake birth certificates

for teenagers

so they could play ten-and-under hockey.

No one deserves a Kansas City

knee job more than this guy,

but that don't matter none.

You swing that pipe,

that's your soul on the line.

You're wasting your time, "Coach."

You said it yourself: I'm just a fist.

I know, and that's how

I saw youse at first.

As a w*apon.

I was using you,

because I was obsessed with

b*ating King Toot here.

I knew it. I'm in your head, bro.

Feed him his own mustache!

No, wait. Don't, don't.

Listen to me. You're a great kid.

You're determined, selfless,

a real teammate

And you did for me what

I failed to do for you.

You had my back, scuzz to scuzz.

Aw. (CHUCKLES)

I don't know.

Sometimes, boss,

I think you only see me as a Kn*fe.

Did you know I got dreams?

I want to open a gourmet

mac and cheese place

called Louie's Gooey.

And I'm learning Swedish on a phone app.

But I'm just a g*n to you.

Gentlemen, I don't see you as weapons.

(CRYING)

Freaking millennials.

Hockey's over,

but maybe we could still do stuff.

You know, like throw turtles at birds?

Any time you want, kid.

But whatever we do, from now on,

let's leave the v*olence behind, uh?

(GRUNTS) Aah!

Ah. There you go, kid.

- You earned that.

- No, I haven't.

And that's what makes

it all the sweeter.
