Darwin: What do you want to do today, Gumball?

Gumball: I'm waiting right here for mom to drive me

to Elmore Senior Talent Show,

Mr, Robinson's headlining,

Anais: But it doesn't start for another hours,

Darwin: And you're not invited,

Gumball: I don't care,

Tonight's the biggest night

of Mr, Robinson's life,

and I have to be there!

Ah, tonight's the night, Margaret,

This town is finally going to see

the real Gaylord Robinson,

[ Scoffs ]

Why can't you ever be happy for me?

Darwin: There he is now!

[ Brakes squeak ]

[ Transmission grinds ]

Gumball: [ Screams ]

Save yourselves!

It's too late for me!

Darwin: Just get over here on the sidewalk, dude,

Gumball: Please remember me, guys,

so I'll always be alive in your heart,

[ Crying ]

Oh, for crying out loud,

Gumball: My whole life is flashing before my eyes!

And it's boring!

Aah!

[ Parking brake clicks ]

Huh?

Darn kids,

Gumball: You saved my life, Mr, Robinson!

I didn't save your life,

I just didn't run you over,

Now get out of my way!

Gumball: No way!

I am not leaving your side

until I have saved your life in return,

Get off my car!

Gumball: I'll never ever leave your side,

Don't make me shout at you,

I got to save my voice for tonight,

[ Grunts ]

Gumball: [ Screams ]

Ooh,

Oh, dear universe above me,

thank you for the gift of Mr, Robinson,

I swear on my life, I will repay this debt,

[ Whoosh! ]

- What did he say? - I don't know,

Whose turn is it, anyway?

Eh, Mine,

I spy with my little eye,,,

[ Coughs ]

Well, Margaret, since you won't take care

of my precious instrument,

I'll get the cough drops mys--

what are you doing here?!

Gumball: I'm here to save your life,

Not today, of all days,

Just get away from me, kid,

I mean it!

Here they are,

"Antiseptic action,"

Gumball: What's this hazardous object doing

in the middle of a floor?

Mr, Robinson could trip over it,

There, Safely out of the way,

What?! Oh!

Gumball: Mr, Robinson!

Ugh! He's out cold!

Ooh, now's my chance to save him!

Stand aside, I know CPR,

Aah!

Gumball: Welcome home, Mr, Robinson,

I booby-trapped your front door,

Why?

All they have to do is ring the doorbell, like so,

Wait, Why would an intruder --

[ Doorbell rings ]
