01x16 - Nothing to Lose Sleepover

Post by bunniefuu »

- Mom, Dad, you know how we
moved here

and I was the new kid,

but then I met Cherry
and we became besties,

and then I met Ashley,
Sarah, and Kelsey.

- I know, sweetie,
I read your blog.

Do you see my comments?

I'm proudmama.

- And I'm embarrasseddaughter.

Anyway,
now that I have friends,

the only thing that's missing
is a sleepover

so I can get closer
to my girl crew.

- I don't know, honey.

About the sleepover
or the term "girl crew."

- Come on, Dad.

Sleepovers are what normal
girls do in Hiddenville.

My friends are starting
to ask questions.

- Like what?

- Like why haven't I had
a sleepover yet.

- Having non-supes in the house
is one thing,

but a group of girls sleeping
over sounds like

a lot of giggling
and glitter.

- Come on, Hank, sleepovers are
more than giggling and glitter.

There's makeovers,
boy talk,

and sometimes
they end in crying.

I miss those days.

- Please, Dad, I want to cry
with my friends!

- Fine.

Have your sleepover.

- But no superpowers.

- Or glitter!

I'm gonna be firm
on that glitter part.

- Thank you!

I promise, no superpowers.

- Alert, alert.

Non-supe approaching.

- I'll get that.

- She didn't agree
on the glitter.

- Is this about Glitter Man,
Hank?

- Glitter Man.

He was the cruelest
super villain ever.

First it's all fun
and shiny glitter,

and then you can't see and
you're flying into a flagpole.

- Cherry, guess what?

I'm having
a sleepover tomorrow!

- Phoebe, guess what?

I hate sleepovers!

- What? Why?

- It's because I'm cursed.

The last sleepover I had,
I burnt the popcorn.

- That's it?

- Then a helicopter crashed
into our deck.

They say it was unrelated,
but I say cuuuurse!

- Okay.

But we're all gonna be here
watching our favorite movie,

-D Teen Romance.

When Ryan Bronson puckers up,

it's like his lips
are in your living room.

- I'm in!

[both shriek]

- I can't wait
for tomorrow night!

- I can't wait
for tomorrow night, Colosso.

Me, you, upstairs watching
Johnny forearms defend his

title in Wrestleface -D.

It's going to be in your face.

[makes exploding sound]

- Did you get the swag?

- Of course.

Got myself a shirt.
[chuckles]

And this is all they had
in your size.

- Well, then it's a date.

- Don't make it weird.

- You bought a onesie
for a bunny.

It's already weird.

[upbeat music]

- Hey, Cherry, quick question
about tonight.

I know this brings back
bad memories,

but can the other girls
eat popcorn?

- [screams]

- Throwing out the popcorn.

Uh, what about pretzels?

- [screams]

- Throwing out the pretzels.

Chips and dip?

Chips and dip it is.

- Okay, countdown
to Wrestleface -D has begun.


What's that sleeping bag
doing here?

- Sleeping bag...

Or wrestling mat?

- Bunny slam!

Yeah!

[both grunting]

Tap out, tap out.

- Never!

- Whatever's going on here,

can it not happen
on my sleeping bag?

- This is yours?

Phoebe, don't take
this the wrong way,

but we're going
to watch wrestling

and nobody wants you here.

- You can't watch
wrestling here.

My friends are coming over
to watch -D Teen Romance.


which we have to watch
on the -D TV

because it's in the title.

- -D is for body slams,

not for teens holding hands
and then bursting into songs

about teens holding hands.

- Well, too bad.

I need this night to go well
with my girlfriends.

I've been planning
this all day.

- All day?

It took me weeks to build a
satellite dish so I can get

the wrestling match without
paying for it,

and why am I telling you this?

- Mom, Dad...

- You wouldn't.

- I think I just did.

- What did Max do, Phoebe?

- Fine.

Watch your sappy movie.

- Never mind.

- She thinks she's won, but I
pooped in her sleeping bag.

- All right, I finally freed
your new toy

from its cardboard prison.

BOTH: Yay!

- Thanks, Mom.

[rapid hammering]

- This is why
you don't have a pet.

- It's an indestructobot.

You're supposed
to try and break it.

- Is that all you've got?

- Wow,
maybe no one can break it.

- Max broke
the refrigerator again.

- Hey, Dad,
you're super strong.

Try and break my
indestructobot.

The box says it can't be done.

- Really?

Well, the box never met
Thunderman.

[straining]

This thing's tougher
than I thought.

- Are you even trying?

Let me know when you start.

- Did he just insult me?

[laughs]

Maybe it's time to wash your
mouth out with a little table.

Honey, Max broke the table.

- Don't even, don't.

- Thank you
for that soothing massage.

- How is this possible?

I'm the strongest man
in the world.

- Maybe the toy's the strongest
man in the world.

- Now, now, kids.

Your father can handle this.

He's just a little rusty.

- Does "rusty"
mean out of shape?

- It means retired, but it's
nothing a little superhero

workout can't fix.

- That's my Thunderman.

- This is not over,
indestructobot.

- Going into sleep mode.

There are no challengers here.

- All right, all right.

[all talking at once]

- All right, all right,
glasses on, ladies.

It's time
For -D Teen Romance!


- Whoa!

These things really work.

It's like the chips and dip
are right here.

[gasps]

It feels so real.

- And now we need more snacks.

- So, Phoebe,

is your brother Max
gonna watch the movie with us?

- Nope.

In fact, he won't be
watching anything.

- Or will he?

-D TV.

It's like it's coming right
at you.

- All right, we've got
everything we need

to watch -D Teen Romance.

except the -D TV.

- What happened to it?

- My slumber party curse
strikes again.

I'm sorry, Phoebe, I should
just go before

the helicopter gets here.

- It's not a curse.

Max took the TV.

I'm gonna get it back.

- Oh, he's such a trickster.

What a fun guy.

- He's not fun, Sarah!

But this sleepover is.

Glitter!

- All right, Hank,
enough stretching.

Drop and give me
a sit-up and a push-up.

- [groaning]

BOTH: Ew!

- [groans]

- Oooooh!

ALL: Ahhhhh...

- See, kids?

This is what happens when you
put in a lot of work,

commit,
and never give up.

- You're a superhero.

That took you ten seconds.

- But I wanted
to give up after five.

I'm coming for you,
indestructobot!

[grunts]

Ooh!

- I heard something pop.

- I think one of my abs
came loose.

This is gonna take longer
than it used to.

[popping]

A lot longer than it used to.

- A huge night of in-your-face
wrestling action

is moments away.

- Yes!

Look at that beautiful picture,
Colosso.

- Yeah.

It's like we're really there.

Except without the sweat.

- Gotcha covered.

[spray bottle hisses]

- Nice.

No! No!

Noooooo!

- What happened?

- You didn't pay your cable
bill, that's what happened.

- No, this can't be happening!

- Aw, no reception?

Guess you won't be
needing the TV.

- Phoebe, what did you do
to my satellite dish?

- Moi?

That's French for "I hid it
And I'm taking the TV."

- Touche.

That's French for, "Nyah, nyah,
nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah."

- Come on, Max, you know how
important this night is to me.

All of my friends
are waiting upstairs.

- Oh, all your friends
are waiting upstairs?

Well, that changes nothing.

- So neither of us gets
to watch anything?

- Well, I get to watch you stomp
out of my room

with your elbows going every
which way.

- I don't do that.

And I'm not gonna let you
ruin my party.

[all giggling]

- Okay, minor technical
difficulties with the TV.

But we do have more glitter.

[all giggle]

- Let's just go to my house
and watch the movie there.

- Do you have a cute twin
brother I can throw myself at?

- Yeah.

- Oh, I wasn't expecting that.

I'm in.

- It's okay, Phoebe.

You tried.

- Cherry, help me.

I can't be known for having
the one sleepover

where no one slept over.

- Yeah, that would be bad.

Even after the helicopter hit,
my friends stayed.

We couldn't sleep
because of the sirens,

but no one suggested leaving.

- How do I get them to stay?

- "Light as a feather, stiff
as a board" is always fun.

- Levitating, that's perfect.

Everybody, we're playing
"Light as a feather,

stiff as a board."

- That never works.

- Uh, my cousin's friend's older
sister's boyfriend's

neighbor said it worked once.

- And it's gonna work this time.

I promise.

- It can't hurt to try.

Sarah, get on the floor.

And remember,
everybody use two fingers.

ALL: Light as a feather,
stiff as a board.

Light as a feather,
stiff as a board.

Light as a feather,
stiff as a board.

Light as a feather,
stiff as a board.

- The power of our friendship
is lifting me up!

[laughs]

- Sorry to interrupt, but your
father needs an energy--

What's going on here?

- Uh, we were using the power
of our friendship to lift Sarah.

- You're using the power
of something.

- I think my butt has
a concussion,

but that was awesome!

[all laughing]

- See, Mom?

It's awesome.

- Using your powers
at a sleepover?

Phoebe, I trusted you.

- Okay, I know this looks bad,
but it was an emergency

and I had the perfect cover.

Please don't send
everybody home.

- I don't think you've left me
much choice.

- There's always another choice.

- Max, what are you
even doing here?

- Enjoying Phoebe's
downward spiral.

- Do you mind?
I'm trying to handle this.

- Hey, I am just as disappointed
in her as you are, Barb.

I may not be a super parent
like you, but if I were,

I would slap on the
anti-superpower ankle bracelet.

- Huh,
I hadn't thought of that.

- I thought you had that
custom-made for Max.

- I did, but Max has little
dainty ankles.

Now you can't use your
superpowers even if you try.

- Mom, what are you doing
with all that?

- Well, Dad needs his energy

because he wants
to play with a toy.

And the chips are for me.

He's putting on quite a show.

- All right, Phoebe,
you ready to make a deal?

Give me back my satellite dish
and I'll disable

that anklet so your powers work.

- I just got busted.

I'm not gonna use
my powers again.

- Phoebe, everybody actually
wants to stay now.

Come back out
so we can keep levitating.

- I need my powers back.

- I need my satellite dish back.

- [sighs]
fine.

It's in the dishwasher.

- The dishwasher?

- That thing right there.

- Oh, the magic chore machine.

You got yourself a deal.

Give me your foot.

Come on.

- Ah!

I've trained,
I've gulped who knows what.

Now all I need is a little
superhero power nap.

[snores]

Ah!
Totally refreshed!

Let's do this!

- You can do it, Hank.

You are not old and weak!

- Nobody ever said that.

[groaning]

- You are old and weak.

- [laughs]

you think this is funny?

Let's see if you're laughing
at my thunderstorm.

- Don't be silly, Hank.

You can't have a thunderstorm
in the house.

- Thunderstorm!

- [squeals]

- Ah!

[thunderous crashing]

- Did you feel that, Colosso?

- -D wrestling
is blowing my mind!

- [laughs]

- [laughing]
yes!

- You flattened it like
a pancake, Dad.

- I never want to hear
that robot voice, again.

- Say, your belly is soft
and warm.

- Ah!

I will not let this kiddie toy
get the best of me!

- Are you okay, Hank?

- No! This kiddie toy
is getting the best of me!

- It's probably better if we
levitate out here so my mom

won't keep interrupting.

How rude, right?

- Cute anklet.
Where'd you get it?

- It's Max's.

He has dainty ankles.

Cherry, you ready for us
to lift you?

- I want to hover like
a helicopter.

[giggles]

Why did I say the "H" word?

- You'll be fine.
Don't worry.

ALL: Light as a feather,
stiff as a board.

Light as a feather,
stiff as a board.

Light as a feather,
stiff as a board.

- Oh, my wow, I'm floating!

- Stay focused, ladies.

We're doing it.

[anklet zapping]

That can't be good.

- [squeals]

- Is she supposed
to go that high?

- Our friendship
is too powerful!

- No, that's what happens
when you do this outside.

- How do you know?

None of us have done
this before.

- Uh, Cherry's cousin's friend's
older sister's

boyfriend's neighbor says this
is totally normal.

- [squeals]

[anklet zapping]

- Eat some lightning,
you bucket of bolts!

- Mom, hurry.

Dad could be back any minute.

- I just need some more time.

- Whoo,
that fresh air really--

What are you doing?

- Nothing.

- Not a thing.

- Electrifying the robot so you
can actually break it this time.

- What?

- We were just getting it
started for you.

You know,
like when I can't open a jar

and you get it started for me.

- No, I open it for you.

- And I appreciate it.

I'm sorry, Hank.

The kids just wanted
to help you.

- The kids?

You guys don't think
I can break a toy?

You really don't think I'm
the strongest man in the world.

- Dad, we just saw
how upset you were,

and we wanted
to make you feel better.

- Yeah.

Who cares
if you can't break my toy?

You're still the greatest dad
in the world.

- No.

I'm the luckiest dad
in the world.

And this is
the greatest family ever.

[anklet zapping]

- [squealing]

- You guys?

I think I'm ready
to come down now.

[screams]

- Why can't we lower her?

- We care too much
about each other.

- That's it.

We need someone
we don't care about.

I'll get my brother.

- Your brother, Max?

- Stay focused, Sarah!

- Uh-oh, Johnny forearms
is back in the ring,

and swinging a bookshelf?

BOTH: Whoa!

- Psst, Max, my anklet
is malfunctioning.

Cherry's floating out
of control.

- So? What's the worst
that could happen?

- She could float
into outer space.

And the anklet could light
my pants on fire.

- I'm okay with either one
of those things.

- Where did Johnny forearms get
a player piano?

- Come on, Max.

I just wanted to have
a great sleepover

where we talked about boys
and did makeovers

and ended up crying.

And not because my best friend
floated away.

How would you feel if it
Was Dr. Colosso up there?

- Dr. Colosso
is not my best friend.

- You bought him a onesie...

And he's wearing it.

- Yeah, admit it, dude.

We're besties.

- Fine.
I'll help you.

- Oh, now he's got
a washing machine!

- A washing machine?

Oh, let's make it quick.

- Ah, don't worry, Max.

I think he's running out
of things to throw!

- Johnny forearms has just
brought a live puma

into the ring.

[puma growls]

- [screams]

Of course, I could be wrong.

- Okay, we've got help.

- Hi, Max.

We'll get her down faster
if we hold hands.

- Not how it works, Sarah.

Okay, guys,
we got to hurry.

Do the "Get her down" chant.

"Heavy as a rock,
limp as a noodle."

ALL: Heavy as a rock,
limp as a noodle.

Heavy as a rock,
limp as a noodle.

Heavy as a rock,
limp as a noodle.

- We're doing it,
we're doing it!

[all squealing]

- Victory hug!

- Again, not how it works,
Sarah.

- Max.

Thanks.

You really came through for me.

And look, I know we might not
always get along--

- Really?
We're doing this now?

- Right, wrestling, go.

- Oh, my gosh, thanks, guys.

That was awesome.

However,
I might've put the "p" in pjs.

- I wish someone recorded this.

Who'd ever believe it
really happened?

- Wait.
Are you crying?

- Yes, this has been the best
sleepover of my life.

- Me too!

- It was amazing!

- Oh, my gosh,
we're all crying.

ALL: Best friends forever!

[all sobbing]

- It's over, it's over, the
match of the century is over!

- It's over?

- And so is
Johnny forearms' career.

- Dr. Colosso, what happened?

- There are no words.

It was horrible
as it was amazing.

- Okay, I'll just watch
the replay online.

- Out of respect to all
those involved,

we will never show
this match again.

- Oh, come on!

- Bummer.

- So did I hear crying
last night?

- I thought my lair
was soundproof.

- I was talking
about Phoebe's friends.

Was it a success?

- Yeah, it was.

Thanks, Mom.

- You know,
I really like those girls.

They are all so down to Earth.

- They are now.

- What?

- Nothing.

- Look at all of you.

This is what life's about.

Not brute force,
not crushing strength.

Family.

That's what really matters.

ALL: Aw.

- Aw, where's the salt?

[clattering]

- It broke, Dad.

- [laughs]

I knew I could do it!

I'm the strongest man
in the world!

And that's all
that really matters!

[laughs maniacally]

No!

[laughing]
