A.N.T. Farm (2011) s03e01 Episode Script
TrANTsferred
I think I did pretty well on that French test.
It was a math test.
- Ay, dios mio! - That's Spanish.
Oh.
Well, then I did very badly either way.
Don't worry, Fletcher.
We're never going to need all this math.
Yet everyone always tells you how important it is.
In fact, if I had a nickel for every time I've heard it, I'd have I'd have Some nickels.
Ow! Ha-ha! First victim of my holographic chair.
Angus! That was incredibly mean! Why would you do that to me? It was meant for Fletcher.
Oh.
Okay then.
Well, I don't understand.
Our A.
N.
T.
Pads can't project 3D images.
Mine can.
I accessed the manufacturer's secure server and downloaded an experimental beta update.
I'd be happy to tell you more of the details, Fletcher.
While you relax in this completely real lounge chair.
No way.
I'm not falling for that.
Suit yourself.
Ah.
Chyna: Wait.
You broke into the Z-Tech servers? They're a huge, powerful technology company! Aren't you worried about getting in trouble? Nope.
There is absolutely no way they can trace it back to me.
(Screams) Because I used Fletcher's computer to do it.
(Laughs) Oh.
Okay then.
(Giggles) Ooh, ooh.
Ooh.
Doo, doo.
Ooh, ooh.
Ooh.
Doo, doo.
Woo! Everybody's got that thing.
Something different, we all bring.
Don't you let 'em, clip your wings.
You got it! You got it! We're on fire and we blaze, in extraordinary ways.
365 days.
We got it! We got it! You can dream it.
You can be it.
If you can feel it, you can believe it! Because I am, you are, we are Exceptional.
Exceptional! Yeah, I am, you are, we are Exceptional.
Exceptional! Ooh, ooh, ooh.
Ooh, ooh.
Woo! Don't hurt me! (Stammers) Do you not speak English? I'll say it in Spanish.
"X" plus three equals seven! Ah! He's got a weapon! (Beeping) I am the great and powerful Grundy! (All screaming) I created this new voice modulation app that makes your voice sound (In deep voice) Scary and awesome! You're Zoltan Grundy! I read your book about how you founded Z-Tech, and built it into the world's largest technology company.
(In normal voice) You liked my book? I said I read your book.
Mr.
Grundy, I'm a huge fan.
I have your cell phone, your laptop, your desktop, your MP3 player, your tablet, your mini-tablet, and your jumbo mini-tablet.
Wow.
You have a really good marketing department.
Zoltan: If you like the jumbo mini-tablet, you'll love the mega nano jumbo mini-tablet.
It's huge, while also being quite tiny.
Now (In deep voice) Where is the villainous cyber-crook responsible for the break-in? It was him! He framed me! He used my computer! What? (In normal voice) You're telling me some kid, breached our network, bypassed our intrusion detection algorithms, and somehow figured out the answer to my security question? I mean, how did he know the name of my first pet? I miss Password.
Such a great dog.
So, what are you going to do to me? Well, I'd like to start By shaking your hand.
But I can't, because I'm on my private jet.
I'm not flying anywhere.
It's just very comfortable.
So, what are you? Some sort of child prodigy? Well, everyone in the A.
N.
T.
Program is a prodigy.
I'm a musician, Fletcher's an artist, Olive has an eidetic memory, and that kid rides a stationary bike! You're in a special program for child prodigies? I was a child prodigy! Yes, we know.
Some of us labored through your book.
I've got to meet you guys in person and learn all about this A.
N.
T.
Program.
I'm on my way.
(In deep voice) Commandos, fall back! (In normal voice) I love this app! Whew.
That was close.
(Chuckles) Ha! Zoltan Grundy is coming here? (Gasps) Do you know how much he's worth? Well, every human has an immeasurable, intrinsic worth, so you can't really $62 billion! Yeah, so we figured you'd want to roll out the red carpet.
Or at least hit on him in a sloppy and embarrassing way.
This is a huge opportunity! Grundy gives millions of dollars to all sorts of causes.
Maybe he'll sponsor the A.
N.
T.
Program! (Gasps) Think what we could use that money for! - New equipment.
- Teacher training.
A Principal who doesn't hate children! What! No.
I can finally get a Koi Pond for my office.
Right now the Koi just flop around and die on the carpet.
Well, Mr.
Grundy will be here soon.
We'd better get this place in shape.
Mmm.
Way ahead of you.
What! What are you doing? We need to make everything here look old and run-down.
Like this? And here is the shining jewel of Webster High, the Ant Farm.
(Playing minor chord) Wow.
Like many of the women my mother sets me up with, this place looks much worse in person.
I can't believe a handsome man like you would need someone to fix him up with women.
Sloppy, check.
Embarrassing, check.
How can we be expected to learn in an environment like this? Crumbling infrastructure, ancient equipment, dead fish all over the carpets.
To say nothing of the filth and disgusting food in the cafeteria.
We didn't do anything to the cafeteria.
If only there were some way to, improve the situation of us poor, unfortunate prodigies.
With whom you have a deep personal connection.
There is.
I am going to make the education of these gifted children my highest priority.
Yes! I will spare no expense making sure they have everything they need to thrive.
Yes! By building a new, improved school, and taking these prodigies away from Webster High forever! Yes! Take them! Take them all! Someone has to rescue these gifted children from this eyesore! Hey! Principal Skidmore may be an eyesore, but she has feelings! (Whispers) You have feelings, right? (Growls) There's no way that you're taking these prodigies away from me.
They are extremely loyal.
Where did you say we could get an application? You know what? I'll just give you my information.
- Hold still, Susan.
- Oh! Hey, Olive! I wrote a song for my audition for Mr.
Grundy's new school.
It's called Stars Aligning.
And, yes, I know that stars are fixed points in space and can't actually align, but it's a song, so cut me some slack, Olive! Interesting factoid.
You actually don't cut slack, you release it.
It's a nautical term dating back to 17th century England.
Wow.
For your audition, you should definitely not tell that story! (Scoffs) I would never do that.
Gosh, Chyna, release me some slack.
Besides, I'm not gonna audition.
I can't go to another school.
I love it here! You hate it here! You complain about everything.
Last week, you complained that they didn't have a complaint box.
And then when they put it in, you complained that it was too boxy.
Because I love complaining.
Besides, I can't leave Webster.
I'm needed here.
You are? By who? I've never told anyone this, but I am Wacky.
You're not Wacky.
In fact, I've seen you in the same room as him.
Uh, nope.
Couldn't happen.
Impossible.
I'll prove to you that I'm Wacky.
Check out my wolf moves.
See? I am marking my territory by releasing my own scent.
Okay, I take that back.
You definitely are Wacky.
Olive.
What's going on? Why don't you wanna go? Chyna, it's a boarding school.
Do you know what that means? A boarding school is an educational institution where children go to study and live away from their parents with their fellow students and possibly teachers and/or administrators.
The next time you say, "do you know what that means?" Please give me a chance to say, "yes".
I can't live miles away from home.
I'm scared to go to this school, and I live across the street.
Olive, (Laughs) There'll be no reason to be scared, because I'll be there with you! To support you.
And think about how much fun we'd have.
We can be roommates! Now that you mention it, if we were roommates, I'm sure I'd have a whole new bunch of things to complain about.
All right, I'm in! What are you doing? Marking my territory.
I don't want people near my locker.
Roommates, huh? To prove that I deserve to go to your school, I have recreated a famous painting using only car windshield dust.
Edvard Munch's The Scream.
Or as I like to call it "What my dad looked like when I told him I wanted to be an artist".
Very impressive.
Plus it's a great way to re-purpose old abandoned rust buckets, that no one would otherwise want.
Hey, there's my car! Why did you draw a picture of your father on my windshield? For my audition, I will demonstrate my eidetic memory.
Name any page from any book and I'll recite the text verbatim.
My autobiography, page (In British accent) "I've always been rather fond of sherbet".
"My favorite of all the sherbet flavors is indubitably rainbow".
"But if forced to select a single flavor, I would have to lean toward" - Why are you stopping? - That's as far as I could get.
After that, I threw it in the fireplace.
Wow.
For the last two years, you've been generating the power for the entire school? I'm the most gifted computer science prodigy in the country.
You should be auditioning for me.
(Scoffs) - No.
- Okay.
- Next, please.
- Wait, wait, wait.
The itsy-bitsy spider went up the water spout.
Down came the rain and Thank you! We'll be in touch.
Next! For my audition, I am going to sing a song that I wrote.
Breaking all the boundaries tonight.
Breaking all the boundaries tonight.
Yeah, I can see the stars aligning.
Finally, I'm free to live my life.
Finally, I'm free to live my life.
I'm gonna keep on, keep on shining.
What gotta be, gotta be.
I'm gonna follow my dreams.
There ain't no doubt about it.
See, I am breaking all the boundaries tonight.
Yeah, I can see the stars aligning.
Oh.
I can feel a smash hit coming.
(Car honking) A double cheeseburger, onion rings, and a large orange drink.
Wait, this isn't a drive-through.
It is now.
All right, the admission e-mails should be arriving now.
(Cell phones chiming) Oh.
Okay, let's all open them at the same time.
On three.
One I got in! Me, too! Of course.
- Woo hoo! - Wait.
This school is supposed to be free.
Why am I being charged a cleaning fee? Your reputation precedes you.
I didn't get in? What's the matter, roomie? Uh, nothing.
I'm just really bummed because I'm really going to miss Principal Skidmore.
So, you're all leaving? Well, good riddance! I never liked any of you! See you in my nightmares! Yeah, I can see why you'd miss that.
(Indistinct talking) Is this Z-Tech customer support? Good.
I think there was a mistake.
I didn't get into your new boarding school.
Well, I don't see how removing my phone battery is going to fix that.
You know what? I'd like to speak to your supervisor.
Yes.
I didn't get into your new boarding school.
For customer support, you're not very supportive, Larry.
I'd like to speak with your supervisor.
Supervisor, please.
(Sighs) (Clock ticking) Supervisor, please.
Supervisor, please.
Supervisor, please.
(Sighs) Supervisor, please.
Supervisor, please.
Zoltan: Customer support.
How can I help you? Mr.
Grundy? This is Chyna Parks.
Look, I know you're probably in some important business meeting right now.
Yes.
That's exactly where I am.
Well, I just wanted to talk to you about the e-mail you sent.
I was hoping it was a mistake.
It t'wasn't.
The only mistake here was agreeing to cover customer service, while Cindy goes off to have her baby.
Please, Mr.
Grundy! I have to get into your school! It's an amazing opportunity.
And all my friends are going! And Olive won't survive without me! I'm sorry, Chyna, I chose a different musical prodigy.
Now I have to go.
I'm up to my neck in bubbles.
I mean, spreadsheets.
Ugh! A different musical prodigy? Who? Yes! I got in! I got in! You got into what? These boots! Oh, and Zoltan Grundy's prodigy school.
- You auditioned? - Of course I did.
Mr.
Grundy practically begged me to.
I know I'm not an A.
N.
T.
, but please let me audition.
I beg you.
I'm way more gifted than any of those weird, awkward prodigy freaks.
I was one of those weird, awkward prodigy freaks.
I know! Anyway, for my audition, I'm going to be singing A much-improved cover of a song by a homely, untalented girl.
(Clears throat) (Hip-hop music playing) Ow, I have got my things.
Something different that I bring.
I let no one clip my wings.
I got it, I got it.
I'm on fire and I blaze.
In extraordinary ways.
365 days.
I got it, I got it.
Because I am.
I are, me am.
Exceptional.
Exceptional! Me.
Me, me.
Me, me.
Me.
Wait.
Why did you tell me the part of the story that proves you begged him to audition? I like talking about myself.
Anyway, the point is, of course I got in.
I've always told you I'm just as talented as you are.
Why are you taking the battery out of your phone? At this point, I'll try anything.
I'm so glad you talked me into this! Boarding school is going to be so awesome! I know we'll be away from our parents, but we'll be roommates and we can share clothes.
Actually, we can't.
Well, you're right.
I'm a little bit more stylish.
Olive, (Sighs) We can't share clothes because I'm not going to be at the school.
Your parents aren't letting you go? - I'm going to go talk to them right now! - No! No.
That's not it.
They're actually really excited.
Are you worried about sleeping in a strange bed that hasn't been disinfected by your ultraviolet, anti-bacterial furniture wand yet? Because I'm bringing mine! - No, that's not it.
- Oh, I know what it is.
You're worried that because the school is in Palo Alto, which means "tall sticks," the school's gonna be surrounded by scary tall sticks.
But don't worry, Chyna, they're just trees.
They're just trees.
I can't wait to get into our new room.
We could start decorating I didn't get in, okay? (Sighs) I didn't get into the school.
What? I can't believe this.
(Stammers) I have got to sit down.
(Buzzing) (Sighs) But you're the most talented musician I know.
And I was once on an airport shuttle with Li'l Weezy.
Well, apparently Weezy and I are not as talented as Lexi.
She got the spot for the musical prodigy.
What! Lexi got in? I don't want to be roommates with Lexi! I don't want to share clothes with her! Although she does have some pretty nice things.
Oh, she did just get some new boots.
Those things are kicking.
(Sighs) You talked me into going to the school, and now I have to go without you? I'm really sorry, Olive.
And I don't know what to tell my dad.
He's going around telling everyone that his daughter got into the best, and freest school in the country.
So what are you going to do? I guess I'm just going to have to face the music.
Hey, girls.
Hi, dad.
Listen (Chuckling) I will listen to you playing your going-away present! (Imitates playing guitar) A 1961 Harmon Tonemaster! But these are really expensive.
We know you've been wanting one forever, so your mom and I got one for you.
Cameron even chipped in his allowance.
He doesn't know it yet, but he chipped in.
Dad, thank you.
But You shouldn't have bought this for me.
You deserve it! You're obviously the best at what you do, so you should have the best guitar.
We are going to miss you so much.
Well, then, maybe I just shouldn't go.
Are you kidding? You got into the best and freest school in the country! I'm so proud of you.
(Laughs nervously) You, too.
(Sighs) (Door closes) Chyna.
You didn't tell him you didn't get in.
Well, I couldn't! He was just so happy for me.
Don't worry.
I'll tell him tomorrow.
What? I said I was gonna tell him tomorrow.
Today's not tomorrow.
Today's today.
Chyna! What are you doing at this school? Well, I was going to tell my dad, but he was so proud of me.
I couldn't break his heart! Anyway, the next thing I knew, I was packing.
And the next, next thing I knew, he was dropping me off.
And the next, next, next thing I knew was Well Is this conversation.
This place is awesome! Can you believe we live at Z-Tech now? Well, I guess we should make ourselves at home.
Way ahead of you.
Ah.
What? You don't live in a houseboat? There you are, Chyna.
Of course I'm here.
Why wouldn't I be here? It's not like I don't belong here.
Whatever.
I was just going to make it clear that even though I'm technically an Ant now.
I'm not one of you.
If anything, I'm the Queen Ant.
There are no Queen Ant's.
You're thinking of bees.
- Interesting factoid - Oh, great.
You brought those with you.
Ant colonies do have a Queen.
She is the most important Ant of all.
- Exactly.
- She does none of the work.
Nor should she.
She is easily identified by her grotesquely enlarged abdomen.
Okay, I'm not the Queen.
Zoltan: Hello, everyone.
Welcome to the new Ant Farm, your home for the next four years! Zoltan: This state of the art facility includes your new school.
Recreation facility, and living quarters.
Living quarters? You've invented living quarters! I guess I don't need these dead ones anymore.
(Coins clinking) All: Oh! Zoltan: You have been selected as the best and Mostly brightest students in the world.
And by attending school here, there will be no limits to the accomplishments that you can achieve! All accomplishments become property of Z-Tech.
(Thudding) Ow! - Sorry.
- That's okay.
Is that a talking duffel bag? Oh, yeah.
It's the latest in luggage technology.
You see, I also have a talking hip sack.
(In high-pitched voice) People make fun of me, but I am one of the most convenient and secure places to store cash, identification documents, and other personal items.
You said it, Sacky! Sacky (Sighs) Anyway, your new Ant Farm is the world's first roomavator.
This entire room is in the center of the building.
It moves up and down like an elevator And also rotates, like an elevator That rotates.
(Whirring) (Students exclaiming in wonder) Weird.
It doesn't even feel like we're moving.
Much like a houseboat, my dear boy.
That's because the roomavator employs inertial dampeners.
And because the Ant Farm is a roomavator These doors can open into any room in the building.
(Elevator dings) - One of our classrooms.
- All: Wow! The music room.
Oh.
You know who would love that? Me! Uh, no, baggy.
(Kicks) Why would you, a talking duffel bag, enjoy a music room? Can you believe her, Sacky? (In high-pitched voice) I know, right? - Let's just see the next room.
- (Beeping) Oh, careful! Some of the rooms in this building house sensitive, top-secret R&D facilities.
(Elevator dings) What is he doing? (Lullaby playing on Mobile) Zoltan: Working on a Mobile phone Mobile.
Cell phones for babies is a huge untapped market.
Oh, of course, this project is still in its infancy.
(Laughing) We also have a fully equipped health club and spa.
(Dings) Oh, is this the tour? I kind of already showed myself around.
(Grunts) - Ooh! - Wow! This place is even more awesome than I imagined.
Not only do we have bedrooms, but also this incredible living room.
There's so much space! And I'm not just saying that because I spent the last two hours in a bag.
They even have this really cool purple box! Oh, it's a piano.
Now, why would they get me all excited thinking it's a purple box? What a cool piano! What a cool piano.
I wish I could live here.
Why am I roommates with Olive? Chyna, I'm pretty sure you requested Olive.
And I definitely requested "not Olive".
Uh, I can explain.
It's because There was a mix-up.
Chyna and I are roommates.
This is your room.
But there are already two girls in here.
That one's your maid.
Let's go.
Oh.
Let's go, let's go! These bags aren't going to move themselves.
I'm glad we got each other as roommates.
I've never really been away from my family.
It'll be nice to have a friendly face around.
How did we even end up together? I requested Olive.
I guess we should pick beds.
(Bed squeaking) (Blows nose) You can have this one.
Attention, everyone! I'm having the first party of the year tonight to celebrate our new school.
So all of your parties after this will be compared to mine and considered painfully dull and worthy of ridicule.
Anyway, please come! Here you go.
Oh.
You'll already be there.
Tidying up! Ooh! You definitely have to come to my party.
Obviously, his talent is wearing jeans.
Hi, I'm Lexi.
Let me tell you about my party.
Oh, hi, I'm Kennedy.
I was just about to tell you about my party.
- You're having a party? - No, I'm starting a party.
The Common Sense and Freedom party.
I'm planning to run for President in 2032.
Ow! I feel your pain.
Because I am in touch with the voters, who are increasingly losing faith in the two-party system.
They want a leader who will focus on issues, not get mired in partisanship and cronyism.
I am that leader! Anyway, you wanted to tell me about your party? Um, never mind.
Look, Olive, I really appreciate you tricking Lexi so we could room together.
But one problem.
I can't stay.
Why not? Maybe you can stay and live in here with me.
What am I going to do about school? (Stammers) I could home school you.
I know more than any teacher.
- Olive, that's - Uh-uh-uh.
We raise our hands to speak in class.
Yes, Chyna.
(Sighs) I would really love to stay.
But I can't.
(Sighs) Well, what are you going to do about your dad? I guess I'll just call him Get all weepy and say I miss him too much and I want to move back home.
He'll never know I didn't get in.
(In sad voice) Hi, daddy.
I miss you is all.
Now that I'm here, I think I might have made a mistake.
I just love you so much and I really wanna move back home.
Please come get me.
Okay.
See you then.
So he's coming to get you? Nope.
He said suck it up and give it a month.
Oh, on the bright side, that's enough time to research the term paper I'm assigning you.
Knock, knock! - Who's there? - Lexi.
Lexi who? Lexi Reed.
(Laughing) That's a good one! I'm gonna use that.
Anyway, I just wanted to let you know I'm having a party tonight.
All the information is on this flyer.
So be sure to stay away during these hours.
Oh, Angus.
Here's an un-invitation for you, too.
I'd love to not come, but I'm already not invited to another party.
- Knock, knock.
- Come in.
Lexi.
Lexi's not here.
Lexi Reed! (Cackling) All right, well, that was my best joke.
If that doesn't cheer her up, I don't know what will.
You told him I didn't get in? - He pried it out of me.
- How? He said, "'sup, Olive?" Being without my best friend is not an option.
We have to figure out a way for Chyna to stay.
Come on, we're smart.
I mean, two of us got into a very prestigious school for prodigies.
Look, it's no use.
I thought Mr.
Grundy liked my a capella song, but I guess he didn't.
A capella? I've never even heard of that song.
Now "Jingle Bells", there's a song everyone loves.
You sang a capella, like just your voice? (Scoffs) You play 47 instruments! That would be like Fletcher doing a painting without paint.
Actually, I did.
Rather than using the traditional Nobody cares, Fletcher! What if I re-record my song and show Mr.
Grundy what I can really do? Tonight, we'll sneak into that music studio, and record a new version of my song with me playing every instrument! That's a great idea.
Yeah, well, with "Jingle Bells" You only need two instruments, jingle bells and this.
(Upbeat music playing) (All cheering) What are you guys doing? Oh, we're trying to figure out the cat daddy.
Oh, that's easy.
It goes like this.
What are you doing? Showing you the Cat Daddy.
No.
Seth is showing us the cat daddy.
I'm running a series of feline DNA tests to determine who fathered these kittens.
(Both meowing) That is not a fun thing to do at a party! It is to them.
What do you expect? You're in a school full of eggheads.
Wanna have a real party? Come to my houseboat.
But if these guys are all nerds, they're even less cool than You guys! Well, thank you.
I've been saying we're the less uncool kids for years.
Probably couldn't hear me because I was in a trash can most of the time.
Come on.
We've got to get to that music studio! Lexi: No, wait! You guys can't leave! Stay! Chyna, sing Dynamite! Olive, tell us a boring fact! Fletcher! You can go.
You guys wait! Stop it! Come on! Chyna! Oh, well.
At least Angus Is doing the Cat Daddy.
He's not.
That's the cat mommy on his face.
(Yowling) (Screaming) Get it off! Get it off! He got too close to the kittens.
Okay.
Let's get to that music room before anyone catches us.
(Dings) (Groaning) It stings! Why did I ask for pickles? You're not doing it right.
You select the floor Then the room.
(Beeping) (Elevator whirs) (All screaming) Neither of you know what you're doing! (Dings) That's a cheese shop.
You don't know how to use it either.
Sure I do.
I just wanted another wedge of this delicious Gorgonzola.
They admitted a cheese-making prodigy, and not me? I got to record that song! (Beeping) - Let me do it! - No, let me.
(Girls arguing) (Elevator stalling) Great, it's broken.
We're not going anywhere.
We're stuck in an elevator? Oh, no! Oh, no! I gotta get out of here.
Fletcher, how can you be claustrophobic in such a huge room? I'm not.
I'm agoraphobic.
Afraid of open spaces.
Why can't we be trapped in a smaller elevator? We're trapped! Trapped in here! I can't breathe! Neither can I.
(Sniffs) Would you put away the Gorgonzola? No one panic.
- Maybe we can fix this thing.
- I know.
I'll call tech support.
Tech support.
How may I help you? When is Cindy going to have that baby already? Hey, maybe we can pry open the doors.
- Oh, good idea.
- Yeah.
(All grunting) Great! We're stuck between floors.
What's down there? Oh, I think it's that top-secret R&B lab.
It's an R&D lab, not an R&B lab.
Scientists don't go in there to make funky soul music.
I wish it were an R&B lab.
Because if I don't record this song tonight, I'm out of here.
Fletcher: Well Looks like this is the only way out of the Ant Farm.
Oh, it's pretty dark in there.
How long a fall do you think it is? We should drop something in and listen to how long it takes to hit the ground.
Fletcher: Olive? Give me your cheese.
(Fletcher screaming) (Thuds) Ow! - It's about eight feet.
- Yeah.
All: Raise the roof! Raise the roof! Raise the roof! Finally people are partying! What are you guys doing? Watching a documentary of these farmers raising the roof of their barn.
Oh, they're done.
(Cows mooing) All: Milk that cow! Milk that cow! Stop it! This is a party! Can we at least do something fun? More fun than watching farmers, the backbone of this great country? Yes! I know.
We can play I Confess.
Everybody, sit in a circle.
We should sit in a hexagon.
As the honeycomb has shown us, it's a far more geometrically efficient shape.
Just ask the bees.
Or I could ask them.
I speak bee.
(Mimics buzzing) Just sit down, hunky nerd! Okay, everybody gets 10 grapes, and then somebody confesses something they've done.
If you've also done it, you keep your grapes.
And if you haven't, you have to give your grapes to the confessor.
Let's start with something tame.
I confess that I've kissed a member of the opposite sex.
Okay.
Um I confess that I've hugged a member of the opposite sex.
Um Held hands? I would never let my campaign be tainted by a smutty hand-holding scandal.
Talked to? Female bees don't count.
Chyna: Okay.
There must be some way to the music studio without using the roomavator.
So, let's look for a roomscalator, or a staircasatron, or even a rope-a-ladder.
You mean a rope ladder? When you say it like that, it doesn't sound high-tech at all.
Wow! What is this? Some sort of space-age kaleidoscope? (Scoffs) Careful, Fletcher! Z-Tech does work for the military.
That's probably some sort of experimental weapon that will take out an entire city block! (Whirring) (Vomiting) Or it's a barf gun.
I read about this research! It's a non-lethal way to disorient and temporarily incapacitate your enemy.
Cool! This is for shoving me out of the roomavator! (Vomiting) There's no proof that worked.
I could have just thrown up from looking at your face.
Guys! Can we please stop making each other throw up and just focus on (Vomiting) I was wrong.
It does work.
Okay, will you cut it out and start looking for an emergency exit? (Sighs) Someone's coming! Hide! Did you try taking out the battery? How are we going to get past him? - We can make him throw up! - Quick, Fletcher, show him your face! Thank you for calling Z-Tech.
Have a nice day.
(Vomiting) Wow! Rainbow sherbet looks exactly the same coming back up.
(All panting) Thank goodness that secret door led to the room where they keep the rope-a-ladders.
Okay, so now I just need to lay down some tracks.
You have a song to record.
You don't have time to play with model trains! She doesn't, but we do! Let's recreate the 1869 joining of the Central and Union Pacific Railroads.
I'll be rail road baron Jay Gould, and you'll be the stubborn widow who won't sell her land! New plan.
I'm going to record the song and you guys are going to sit here, and silently support me.
I don't think I can do that.
(Playing piano) (Bells jingling) What are you doing? Trust me.
Everything sounds better with jingle bells.
Who do you think you are, Widow Hartley? No one says no to rail road baron Jay Gould.
Come on! Seriously, no one's ever made eye contact with someone of the opposite sex? You nerds are ruining my party! Don't worry.
Things are about to start heating up! Really? Because Seth is going to figure out the boiling point of ethylene glycol! Fascinating! You've got to be kidding me! (Grunts) You're the biggest waste of hunkiness I've ever seen in my life! Well, now we know the boiling point of a blonde girl.
(Laughing) Hey, here's a game we can play, Hide And Seek.
I'll hide, and you guys seek.
Counseling.
I've had it with you people! I am not one of you, and I never will be! You guys can stay at this party, but I'm leaving! It's broken.
I tried to leave two hours ago.
(Dings) Oh.
Looks like they got the roomavator fixed.
Not that we know anything about it being broken.
Was it broken? I don't know.
I have no idea.
I haven't touched it.
Well, well, well.
Look who's here.
Cindy! She finally had her baby! Oh, (Sighs) And also Chyna.
Look, Mr.
Grundy, I know I didn't get into this school.
What! Chyna didn't get in? (Gasps) That's terrible! I feel so bad for you! Please, Mr.
Grundy, just give me another chance.
I recorded a new version of my audition song, and I'm begging you to let me play it for you.
Don't bother.
Come on! She deserves to be here more than anyone! Yeah.
She's the most talented person I know! And she knows Li'l Weezy! I meant don't bother because I've already seen the video.
I don't think I've made a video yet.
Yes, you have.
This building houses one of the world's largest technology companies.
Did it not occur to you when you were sneaking around, that we might have security surveillance? - You caught us on camera? - Actually, dozens of cameras.
We can watch it on the Super Mega Jumbo Ultra Maxi Z-Phone Plus Extreme.
(Playing instruments) They're telling me get back on ground.
Forget my dreams just let them drown.
But deep inside.
A voice is telling me they're wrong.
They're wrong.
I wanna know, that anything I wanna know, that anything Is possible.
If I believe.
I'm ready for Whatever future holds for me.
Can't be afraid anymore, I'm getting ready to fly.
Wish they could all see me now.
Because I'm breaking all, the boundaries tonight.
I can see the stars aligning.
Finally I'm free, to live my life.
I'm gonna keep on, keep on shining.
What gotta be gotta be.
I'm gonna follow my dreams.
There ain't no doubt about it.
I'm breaking all the boundaries tonight.
I'm breaking all the boundaries tonight.
Yeah, I can see the stars aligning.
(All cheering) That was incredible.
The work of a true prodigy.
So I'm in? You'll let me in the school? No.
Sorry, I told you already, I picked a different musical prodigy.
Seriously? You picked Lexi over Chyna? Lexi? Lexi's a math prodigy.
He means I'm good with numbers.
Musical numbers.
Because I'm a musical prodigy.
Yeah, let's move on.
- What are you talking about? - Lexi came in to audition Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You know, if they're gonna find out anyway, at least let me talk about myself.
I came in to the audition wearing a beautiful red dress.
Exceptional.
Me.
Me, me.
Me, me.
Me.
I've also been the star of many school plays, want to see some pictures? Ah! I see you have the classic Z-Phone.
Yeah.
Well, I was going to upgrade to the Z-Phone 2.
But then I realized that even though the extra half-inch of display size, means 17.
74% more screen area.
And the higher resolution increases the total number of pixels by 192,000.
It really only increases the pixels per square inch by 7.
49%.
Hardly worthwhile when you consider that the Z-Phone 2 costs 25% more.
And 33.
8% more if you take the rip-off protection plan.
You do enough shopping, you get good with numbers.
So you are one of us! You're a math nerd! I prefer the term "math princess".
So, if Lexi's not the musical prodigy, then who is? Um My nephew, Zev.
And what instrument does he play? Guitar.
Well, air guitar.
My sister Zelda said if I didn't take him, she'd take away my new dog.
And I love 123456.
But you own the school, and nothing says that you can't admit two musical prodigies.
Or one musical prodigy and him.
That 'tis true.
I don't need to choose only one type of each prodigy.
Oh! Why did I turn away all those other talented bee-talkers? Chyna, welcome to the program.
(Both exclaiming in delight) Yay! Thank you so much, Mr.
Grundy! - How can I repay you? - You can't.
I'm worth $62 billion! If you're worth that much money, we need to discuss hiring better maids.
Isn't this great, Olive? Being roommates, living together! It'll be like a slumber party every night! I can talk about boys! You can talk about rail road baron, Jay Gould.
(Sighs) I love this place.
(Air whooshing) Don't you love this place? They're just trees.
They're just trees.
Roommates, huh?
It was a math test.
- Ay, dios mio! - That's Spanish.
Oh.
Well, then I did very badly either way.
Don't worry, Fletcher.
We're never going to need all this math.
Yet everyone always tells you how important it is.
In fact, if I had a nickel for every time I've heard it, I'd have I'd have Some nickels.
Ow! Ha-ha! First victim of my holographic chair.
Angus! That was incredibly mean! Why would you do that to me? It was meant for Fletcher.
Oh.
Okay then.
Well, I don't understand.
Our A.
N.
T.
Pads can't project 3D images.
Mine can.
I accessed the manufacturer's secure server and downloaded an experimental beta update.
I'd be happy to tell you more of the details, Fletcher.
While you relax in this completely real lounge chair.
No way.
I'm not falling for that.
Suit yourself.
Ah.
Chyna: Wait.
You broke into the Z-Tech servers? They're a huge, powerful technology company! Aren't you worried about getting in trouble? Nope.
There is absolutely no way they can trace it back to me.
(Screams) Because I used Fletcher's computer to do it.
(Laughs) Oh.
Okay then.
(Giggles) Ooh, ooh.
Ooh.
Doo, doo.
Ooh, ooh.
Ooh.
Doo, doo.
Woo! Everybody's got that thing.
Something different, we all bring.
Don't you let 'em, clip your wings.
You got it! You got it! We're on fire and we blaze, in extraordinary ways.
365 days.
We got it! We got it! You can dream it.
You can be it.
If you can feel it, you can believe it! Because I am, you are, we are Exceptional.
Exceptional! Yeah, I am, you are, we are Exceptional.
Exceptional! Ooh, ooh, ooh.
Ooh, ooh.
Woo! Don't hurt me! (Stammers) Do you not speak English? I'll say it in Spanish.
"X" plus three equals seven! Ah! He's got a weapon! (Beeping) I am the great and powerful Grundy! (All screaming) I created this new voice modulation app that makes your voice sound (In deep voice) Scary and awesome! You're Zoltan Grundy! I read your book about how you founded Z-Tech, and built it into the world's largest technology company.
(In normal voice) You liked my book? I said I read your book.
Mr.
Grundy, I'm a huge fan.
I have your cell phone, your laptop, your desktop, your MP3 player, your tablet, your mini-tablet, and your jumbo mini-tablet.
Wow.
You have a really good marketing department.
Zoltan: If you like the jumbo mini-tablet, you'll love the mega nano jumbo mini-tablet.
It's huge, while also being quite tiny.
Now (In deep voice) Where is the villainous cyber-crook responsible for the break-in? It was him! He framed me! He used my computer! What? (In normal voice) You're telling me some kid, breached our network, bypassed our intrusion detection algorithms, and somehow figured out the answer to my security question? I mean, how did he know the name of my first pet? I miss Password.
Such a great dog.
So, what are you going to do to me? Well, I'd like to start By shaking your hand.
But I can't, because I'm on my private jet.
I'm not flying anywhere.
It's just very comfortable.
So, what are you? Some sort of child prodigy? Well, everyone in the A.
N.
T.
Program is a prodigy.
I'm a musician, Fletcher's an artist, Olive has an eidetic memory, and that kid rides a stationary bike! You're in a special program for child prodigies? I was a child prodigy! Yes, we know.
Some of us labored through your book.
I've got to meet you guys in person and learn all about this A.
N.
T.
Program.
I'm on my way.
(In deep voice) Commandos, fall back! (In normal voice) I love this app! Whew.
That was close.
(Chuckles) Ha! Zoltan Grundy is coming here? (Gasps) Do you know how much he's worth? Well, every human has an immeasurable, intrinsic worth, so you can't really $62 billion! Yeah, so we figured you'd want to roll out the red carpet.
Or at least hit on him in a sloppy and embarrassing way.
This is a huge opportunity! Grundy gives millions of dollars to all sorts of causes.
Maybe he'll sponsor the A.
N.
T.
Program! (Gasps) Think what we could use that money for! - New equipment.
- Teacher training.
A Principal who doesn't hate children! What! No.
I can finally get a Koi Pond for my office.
Right now the Koi just flop around and die on the carpet.
Well, Mr.
Grundy will be here soon.
We'd better get this place in shape.
Mmm.
Way ahead of you.
What! What are you doing? We need to make everything here look old and run-down.
Like this? And here is the shining jewel of Webster High, the Ant Farm.
(Playing minor chord) Wow.
Like many of the women my mother sets me up with, this place looks much worse in person.
I can't believe a handsome man like you would need someone to fix him up with women.
Sloppy, check.
Embarrassing, check.
How can we be expected to learn in an environment like this? Crumbling infrastructure, ancient equipment, dead fish all over the carpets.
To say nothing of the filth and disgusting food in the cafeteria.
We didn't do anything to the cafeteria.
If only there were some way to, improve the situation of us poor, unfortunate prodigies.
With whom you have a deep personal connection.
There is.
I am going to make the education of these gifted children my highest priority.
Yes! I will spare no expense making sure they have everything they need to thrive.
Yes! By building a new, improved school, and taking these prodigies away from Webster High forever! Yes! Take them! Take them all! Someone has to rescue these gifted children from this eyesore! Hey! Principal Skidmore may be an eyesore, but she has feelings! (Whispers) You have feelings, right? (Growls) There's no way that you're taking these prodigies away from me.
They are extremely loyal.
Where did you say we could get an application? You know what? I'll just give you my information.
- Hold still, Susan.
- Oh! Hey, Olive! I wrote a song for my audition for Mr.
Grundy's new school.
It's called Stars Aligning.
And, yes, I know that stars are fixed points in space and can't actually align, but it's a song, so cut me some slack, Olive! Interesting factoid.
You actually don't cut slack, you release it.
It's a nautical term dating back to 17th century England.
Wow.
For your audition, you should definitely not tell that story! (Scoffs) I would never do that.
Gosh, Chyna, release me some slack.
Besides, I'm not gonna audition.
I can't go to another school.
I love it here! You hate it here! You complain about everything.
Last week, you complained that they didn't have a complaint box.
And then when they put it in, you complained that it was too boxy.
Because I love complaining.
Besides, I can't leave Webster.
I'm needed here.
You are? By who? I've never told anyone this, but I am Wacky.
You're not Wacky.
In fact, I've seen you in the same room as him.
Uh, nope.
Couldn't happen.
Impossible.
I'll prove to you that I'm Wacky.
Check out my wolf moves.
See? I am marking my territory by releasing my own scent.
Okay, I take that back.
You definitely are Wacky.
Olive.
What's going on? Why don't you wanna go? Chyna, it's a boarding school.
Do you know what that means? A boarding school is an educational institution where children go to study and live away from their parents with their fellow students and possibly teachers and/or administrators.
The next time you say, "do you know what that means?" Please give me a chance to say, "yes".
I can't live miles away from home.
I'm scared to go to this school, and I live across the street.
Olive, (Laughs) There'll be no reason to be scared, because I'll be there with you! To support you.
And think about how much fun we'd have.
We can be roommates! Now that you mention it, if we were roommates, I'm sure I'd have a whole new bunch of things to complain about.
All right, I'm in! What are you doing? Marking my territory.
I don't want people near my locker.
Roommates, huh? To prove that I deserve to go to your school, I have recreated a famous painting using only car windshield dust.
Edvard Munch's The Scream.
Or as I like to call it "What my dad looked like when I told him I wanted to be an artist".
Very impressive.
Plus it's a great way to re-purpose old abandoned rust buckets, that no one would otherwise want.
Hey, there's my car! Why did you draw a picture of your father on my windshield? For my audition, I will demonstrate my eidetic memory.
Name any page from any book and I'll recite the text verbatim.
My autobiography, page (In British accent) "I've always been rather fond of sherbet".
"My favorite of all the sherbet flavors is indubitably rainbow".
"But if forced to select a single flavor, I would have to lean toward" - Why are you stopping? - That's as far as I could get.
After that, I threw it in the fireplace.
Wow.
For the last two years, you've been generating the power for the entire school? I'm the most gifted computer science prodigy in the country.
You should be auditioning for me.
(Scoffs) - No.
- Okay.
- Next, please.
- Wait, wait, wait.
The itsy-bitsy spider went up the water spout.
Down came the rain and Thank you! We'll be in touch.
Next! For my audition, I am going to sing a song that I wrote.
Breaking all the boundaries tonight.
Breaking all the boundaries tonight.
Yeah, I can see the stars aligning.
Finally, I'm free to live my life.
Finally, I'm free to live my life.
I'm gonna keep on, keep on shining.
What gotta be, gotta be.
I'm gonna follow my dreams.
There ain't no doubt about it.
See, I am breaking all the boundaries tonight.
Yeah, I can see the stars aligning.
Oh.
I can feel a smash hit coming.
(Car honking) A double cheeseburger, onion rings, and a large orange drink.
Wait, this isn't a drive-through.
It is now.
All right, the admission e-mails should be arriving now.
(Cell phones chiming) Oh.
Okay, let's all open them at the same time.
On three.
One I got in! Me, too! Of course.
- Woo hoo! - Wait.
This school is supposed to be free.
Why am I being charged a cleaning fee? Your reputation precedes you.
I didn't get in? What's the matter, roomie? Uh, nothing.
I'm just really bummed because I'm really going to miss Principal Skidmore.
So, you're all leaving? Well, good riddance! I never liked any of you! See you in my nightmares! Yeah, I can see why you'd miss that.
(Indistinct talking) Is this Z-Tech customer support? Good.
I think there was a mistake.
I didn't get into your new boarding school.
Well, I don't see how removing my phone battery is going to fix that.
You know what? I'd like to speak to your supervisor.
Yes.
I didn't get into your new boarding school.
For customer support, you're not very supportive, Larry.
I'd like to speak with your supervisor.
Supervisor, please.
(Sighs) (Clock ticking) Supervisor, please.
Supervisor, please.
Supervisor, please.
(Sighs) Supervisor, please.
Supervisor, please.
Zoltan: Customer support.
How can I help you? Mr.
Grundy? This is Chyna Parks.
Look, I know you're probably in some important business meeting right now.
Yes.
That's exactly where I am.
Well, I just wanted to talk to you about the e-mail you sent.
I was hoping it was a mistake.
It t'wasn't.
The only mistake here was agreeing to cover customer service, while Cindy goes off to have her baby.
Please, Mr.
Grundy! I have to get into your school! It's an amazing opportunity.
And all my friends are going! And Olive won't survive without me! I'm sorry, Chyna, I chose a different musical prodigy.
Now I have to go.
I'm up to my neck in bubbles.
I mean, spreadsheets.
Ugh! A different musical prodigy? Who? Yes! I got in! I got in! You got into what? These boots! Oh, and Zoltan Grundy's prodigy school.
- You auditioned? - Of course I did.
Mr.
Grundy practically begged me to.
I know I'm not an A.
N.
T.
, but please let me audition.
I beg you.
I'm way more gifted than any of those weird, awkward prodigy freaks.
I was one of those weird, awkward prodigy freaks.
I know! Anyway, for my audition, I'm going to be singing A much-improved cover of a song by a homely, untalented girl.
(Clears throat) (Hip-hop music playing) Ow, I have got my things.
Something different that I bring.
I let no one clip my wings.
I got it, I got it.
I'm on fire and I blaze.
In extraordinary ways.
365 days.
I got it, I got it.
Because I am.
I are, me am.
Exceptional.
Exceptional! Me.
Me, me.
Me, me.
Me.
Wait.
Why did you tell me the part of the story that proves you begged him to audition? I like talking about myself.
Anyway, the point is, of course I got in.
I've always told you I'm just as talented as you are.
Why are you taking the battery out of your phone? At this point, I'll try anything.
I'm so glad you talked me into this! Boarding school is going to be so awesome! I know we'll be away from our parents, but we'll be roommates and we can share clothes.
Actually, we can't.
Well, you're right.
I'm a little bit more stylish.
Olive, (Sighs) We can't share clothes because I'm not going to be at the school.
Your parents aren't letting you go? - I'm going to go talk to them right now! - No! No.
That's not it.
They're actually really excited.
Are you worried about sleeping in a strange bed that hasn't been disinfected by your ultraviolet, anti-bacterial furniture wand yet? Because I'm bringing mine! - No, that's not it.
- Oh, I know what it is.
You're worried that because the school is in Palo Alto, which means "tall sticks," the school's gonna be surrounded by scary tall sticks.
But don't worry, Chyna, they're just trees.
They're just trees.
I can't wait to get into our new room.
We could start decorating I didn't get in, okay? (Sighs) I didn't get into the school.
What? I can't believe this.
(Stammers) I have got to sit down.
(Buzzing) (Sighs) But you're the most talented musician I know.
And I was once on an airport shuttle with Li'l Weezy.
Well, apparently Weezy and I are not as talented as Lexi.
She got the spot for the musical prodigy.
What! Lexi got in? I don't want to be roommates with Lexi! I don't want to share clothes with her! Although she does have some pretty nice things.
Oh, she did just get some new boots.
Those things are kicking.
(Sighs) You talked me into going to the school, and now I have to go without you? I'm really sorry, Olive.
And I don't know what to tell my dad.
He's going around telling everyone that his daughter got into the best, and freest school in the country.
So what are you going to do? I guess I'm just going to have to face the music.
Hey, girls.
Hi, dad.
Listen (Chuckling) I will listen to you playing your going-away present! (Imitates playing guitar) A 1961 Harmon Tonemaster! But these are really expensive.
We know you've been wanting one forever, so your mom and I got one for you.
Cameron even chipped in his allowance.
He doesn't know it yet, but he chipped in.
Dad, thank you.
But You shouldn't have bought this for me.
You deserve it! You're obviously the best at what you do, so you should have the best guitar.
We are going to miss you so much.
Well, then, maybe I just shouldn't go.
Are you kidding? You got into the best and freest school in the country! I'm so proud of you.
(Laughs nervously) You, too.
(Sighs) (Door closes) Chyna.
You didn't tell him you didn't get in.
Well, I couldn't! He was just so happy for me.
Don't worry.
I'll tell him tomorrow.
What? I said I was gonna tell him tomorrow.
Today's not tomorrow.
Today's today.
Chyna! What are you doing at this school? Well, I was going to tell my dad, but he was so proud of me.
I couldn't break his heart! Anyway, the next thing I knew, I was packing.
And the next, next thing I knew, he was dropping me off.
And the next, next, next thing I knew was Well Is this conversation.
This place is awesome! Can you believe we live at Z-Tech now? Well, I guess we should make ourselves at home.
Way ahead of you.
Ah.
What? You don't live in a houseboat? There you are, Chyna.
Of course I'm here.
Why wouldn't I be here? It's not like I don't belong here.
Whatever.
I was just going to make it clear that even though I'm technically an Ant now.
I'm not one of you.
If anything, I'm the Queen Ant.
There are no Queen Ant's.
You're thinking of bees.
- Interesting factoid - Oh, great.
You brought those with you.
Ant colonies do have a Queen.
She is the most important Ant of all.
- Exactly.
- She does none of the work.
Nor should she.
She is easily identified by her grotesquely enlarged abdomen.
Okay, I'm not the Queen.
Zoltan: Hello, everyone.
Welcome to the new Ant Farm, your home for the next four years! Zoltan: This state of the art facility includes your new school.
Recreation facility, and living quarters.
Living quarters? You've invented living quarters! I guess I don't need these dead ones anymore.
(Coins clinking) All: Oh! Zoltan: You have been selected as the best and Mostly brightest students in the world.
And by attending school here, there will be no limits to the accomplishments that you can achieve! All accomplishments become property of Z-Tech.
(Thudding) Ow! - Sorry.
- That's okay.
Is that a talking duffel bag? Oh, yeah.
It's the latest in luggage technology.
You see, I also have a talking hip sack.
(In high-pitched voice) People make fun of me, but I am one of the most convenient and secure places to store cash, identification documents, and other personal items.
You said it, Sacky! Sacky (Sighs) Anyway, your new Ant Farm is the world's first roomavator.
This entire room is in the center of the building.
It moves up and down like an elevator And also rotates, like an elevator That rotates.
(Whirring) (Students exclaiming in wonder) Weird.
It doesn't even feel like we're moving.
Much like a houseboat, my dear boy.
That's because the roomavator employs inertial dampeners.
And because the Ant Farm is a roomavator These doors can open into any room in the building.
(Elevator dings) - One of our classrooms.
- All: Wow! The music room.
Oh.
You know who would love that? Me! Uh, no, baggy.
(Kicks) Why would you, a talking duffel bag, enjoy a music room? Can you believe her, Sacky? (In high-pitched voice) I know, right? - Let's just see the next room.
- (Beeping) Oh, careful! Some of the rooms in this building house sensitive, top-secret R&D facilities.
(Elevator dings) What is he doing? (Lullaby playing on Mobile) Zoltan: Working on a Mobile phone Mobile.
Cell phones for babies is a huge untapped market.
Oh, of course, this project is still in its infancy.
(Laughing) We also have a fully equipped health club and spa.
(Dings) Oh, is this the tour? I kind of already showed myself around.
(Grunts) - Ooh! - Wow! This place is even more awesome than I imagined.
Not only do we have bedrooms, but also this incredible living room.
There's so much space! And I'm not just saying that because I spent the last two hours in a bag.
They even have this really cool purple box! Oh, it's a piano.
Now, why would they get me all excited thinking it's a purple box? What a cool piano! What a cool piano.
I wish I could live here.
Why am I roommates with Olive? Chyna, I'm pretty sure you requested Olive.
And I definitely requested "not Olive".
Uh, I can explain.
It's because There was a mix-up.
Chyna and I are roommates.
This is your room.
But there are already two girls in here.
That one's your maid.
Let's go.
Oh.
Let's go, let's go! These bags aren't going to move themselves.
I'm glad we got each other as roommates.
I've never really been away from my family.
It'll be nice to have a friendly face around.
How did we even end up together? I requested Olive.
I guess we should pick beds.
(Bed squeaking) (Blows nose) You can have this one.
Attention, everyone! I'm having the first party of the year tonight to celebrate our new school.
So all of your parties after this will be compared to mine and considered painfully dull and worthy of ridicule.
Anyway, please come! Here you go.
Oh.
You'll already be there.
Tidying up! Ooh! You definitely have to come to my party.
Obviously, his talent is wearing jeans.
Hi, I'm Lexi.
Let me tell you about my party.
Oh, hi, I'm Kennedy.
I was just about to tell you about my party.
- You're having a party? - No, I'm starting a party.
The Common Sense and Freedom party.
I'm planning to run for President in 2032.
Ow! I feel your pain.
Because I am in touch with the voters, who are increasingly losing faith in the two-party system.
They want a leader who will focus on issues, not get mired in partisanship and cronyism.
I am that leader! Anyway, you wanted to tell me about your party? Um, never mind.
Look, Olive, I really appreciate you tricking Lexi so we could room together.
But one problem.
I can't stay.
Why not? Maybe you can stay and live in here with me.
What am I going to do about school? (Stammers) I could home school you.
I know more than any teacher.
- Olive, that's - Uh-uh-uh.
We raise our hands to speak in class.
Yes, Chyna.
(Sighs) I would really love to stay.
But I can't.
(Sighs) Well, what are you going to do about your dad? I guess I'll just call him Get all weepy and say I miss him too much and I want to move back home.
He'll never know I didn't get in.
(In sad voice) Hi, daddy.
I miss you is all.
Now that I'm here, I think I might have made a mistake.
I just love you so much and I really wanna move back home.
Please come get me.
Okay.
See you then.
So he's coming to get you? Nope.
He said suck it up and give it a month.
Oh, on the bright side, that's enough time to research the term paper I'm assigning you.
Knock, knock! - Who's there? - Lexi.
Lexi who? Lexi Reed.
(Laughing) That's a good one! I'm gonna use that.
Anyway, I just wanted to let you know I'm having a party tonight.
All the information is on this flyer.
So be sure to stay away during these hours.
Oh, Angus.
Here's an un-invitation for you, too.
I'd love to not come, but I'm already not invited to another party.
- Knock, knock.
- Come in.
Lexi.
Lexi's not here.
Lexi Reed! (Cackling) All right, well, that was my best joke.
If that doesn't cheer her up, I don't know what will.
You told him I didn't get in? - He pried it out of me.
- How? He said, "'sup, Olive?" Being without my best friend is not an option.
We have to figure out a way for Chyna to stay.
Come on, we're smart.
I mean, two of us got into a very prestigious school for prodigies.
Look, it's no use.
I thought Mr.
Grundy liked my a capella song, but I guess he didn't.
A capella? I've never even heard of that song.
Now "Jingle Bells", there's a song everyone loves.
You sang a capella, like just your voice? (Scoffs) You play 47 instruments! That would be like Fletcher doing a painting without paint.
Actually, I did.
Rather than using the traditional Nobody cares, Fletcher! What if I re-record my song and show Mr.
Grundy what I can really do? Tonight, we'll sneak into that music studio, and record a new version of my song with me playing every instrument! That's a great idea.
Yeah, well, with "Jingle Bells" You only need two instruments, jingle bells and this.
(Upbeat music playing) (All cheering) What are you guys doing? Oh, we're trying to figure out the cat daddy.
Oh, that's easy.
It goes like this.
What are you doing? Showing you the Cat Daddy.
No.
Seth is showing us the cat daddy.
I'm running a series of feline DNA tests to determine who fathered these kittens.
(Both meowing) That is not a fun thing to do at a party! It is to them.
What do you expect? You're in a school full of eggheads.
Wanna have a real party? Come to my houseboat.
But if these guys are all nerds, they're even less cool than You guys! Well, thank you.
I've been saying we're the less uncool kids for years.
Probably couldn't hear me because I was in a trash can most of the time.
Come on.
We've got to get to that music studio! Lexi: No, wait! You guys can't leave! Stay! Chyna, sing Dynamite! Olive, tell us a boring fact! Fletcher! You can go.
You guys wait! Stop it! Come on! Chyna! Oh, well.
At least Angus Is doing the Cat Daddy.
He's not.
That's the cat mommy on his face.
(Yowling) (Screaming) Get it off! Get it off! He got too close to the kittens.
Okay.
Let's get to that music room before anyone catches us.
(Dings) (Groaning) It stings! Why did I ask for pickles? You're not doing it right.
You select the floor Then the room.
(Beeping) (Elevator whirs) (All screaming) Neither of you know what you're doing! (Dings) That's a cheese shop.
You don't know how to use it either.
Sure I do.
I just wanted another wedge of this delicious Gorgonzola.
They admitted a cheese-making prodigy, and not me? I got to record that song! (Beeping) - Let me do it! - No, let me.
(Girls arguing) (Elevator stalling) Great, it's broken.
We're not going anywhere.
We're stuck in an elevator? Oh, no! Oh, no! I gotta get out of here.
Fletcher, how can you be claustrophobic in such a huge room? I'm not.
I'm agoraphobic.
Afraid of open spaces.
Why can't we be trapped in a smaller elevator? We're trapped! Trapped in here! I can't breathe! Neither can I.
(Sniffs) Would you put away the Gorgonzola? No one panic.
- Maybe we can fix this thing.
- I know.
I'll call tech support.
Tech support.
How may I help you? When is Cindy going to have that baby already? Hey, maybe we can pry open the doors.
- Oh, good idea.
- Yeah.
(All grunting) Great! We're stuck between floors.
What's down there? Oh, I think it's that top-secret R&B lab.
It's an R&D lab, not an R&B lab.
Scientists don't go in there to make funky soul music.
I wish it were an R&B lab.
Because if I don't record this song tonight, I'm out of here.
Fletcher: Well Looks like this is the only way out of the Ant Farm.
Oh, it's pretty dark in there.
How long a fall do you think it is? We should drop something in and listen to how long it takes to hit the ground.
Fletcher: Olive? Give me your cheese.
(Fletcher screaming) (Thuds) Ow! - It's about eight feet.
- Yeah.
All: Raise the roof! Raise the roof! Raise the roof! Finally people are partying! What are you guys doing? Watching a documentary of these farmers raising the roof of their barn.
Oh, they're done.
(Cows mooing) All: Milk that cow! Milk that cow! Stop it! This is a party! Can we at least do something fun? More fun than watching farmers, the backbone of this great country? Yes! I know.
We can play I Confess.
Everybody, sit in a circle.
We should sit in a hexagon.
As the honeycomb has shown us, it's a far more geometrically efficient shape.
Just ask the bees.
Or I could ask them.
I speak bee.
(Mimics buzzing) Just sit down, hunky nerd! Okay, everybody gets 10 grapes, and then somebody confesses something they've done.
If you've also done it, you keep your grapes.
And if you haven't, you have to give your grapes to the confessor.
Let's start with something tame.
I confess that I've kissed a member of the opposite sex.
Okay.
Um I confess that I've hugged a member of the opposite sex.
Um Held hands? I would never let my campaign be tainted by a smutty hand-holding scandal.
Talked to? Female bees don't count.
Chyna: Okay.
There must be some way to the music studio without using the roomavator.
So, let's look for a roomscalator, or a staircasatron, or even a rope-a-ladder.
You mean a rope ladder? When you say it like that, it doesn't sound high-tech at all.
Wow! What is this? Some sort of space-age kaleidoscope? (Scoffs) Careful, Fletcher! Z-Tech does work for the military.
That's probably some sort of experimental weapon that will take out an entire city block! (Whirring) (Vomiting) Or it's a barf gun.
I read about this research! It's a non-lethal way to disorient and temporarily incapacitate your enemy.
Cool! This is for shoving me out of the roomavator! (Vomiting) There's no proof that worked.
I could have just thrown up from looking at your face.
Guys! Can we please stop making each other throw up and just focus on (Vomiting) I was wrong.
It does work.
Okay, will you cut it out and start looking for an emergency exit? (Sighs) Someone's coming! Hide! Did you try taking out the battery? How are we going to get past him? - We can make him throw up! - Quick, Fletcher, show him your face! Thank you for calling Z-Tech.
Have a nice day.
(Vomiting) Wow! Rainbow sherbet looks exactly the same coming back up.
(All panting) Thank goodness that secret door led to the room where they keep the rope-a-ladders.
Okay, so now I just need to lay down some tracks.
You have a song to record.
You don't have time to play with model trains! She doesn't, but we do! Let's recreate the 1869 joining of the Central and Union Pacific Railroads.
I'll be rail road baron Jay Gould, and you'll be the stubborn widow who won't sell her land! New plan.
I'm going to record the song and you guys are going to sit here, and silently support me.
I don't think I can do that.
(Playing piano) (Bells jingling) What are you doing? Trust me.
Everything sounds better with jingle bells.
Who do you think you are, Widow Hartley? No one says no to rail road baron Jay Gould.
Come on! Seriously, no one's ever made eye contact with someone of the opposite sex? You nerds are ruining my party! Don't worry.
Things are about to start heating up! Really? Because Seth is going to figure out the boiling point of ethylene glycol! Fascinating! You've got to be kidding me! (Grunts) You're the biggest waste of hunkiness I've ever seen in my life! Well, now we know the boiling point of a blonde girl.
(Laughing) Hey, here's a game we can play, Hide And Seek.
I'll hide, and you guys seek.
Counseling.
I've had it with you people! I am not one of you, and I never will be! You guys can stay at this party, but I'm leaving! It's broken.
I tried to leave two hours ago.
(Dings) Oh.
Looks like they got the roomavator fixed.
Not that we know anything about it being broken.
Was it broken? I don't know.
I have no idea.
I haven't touched it.
Well, well, well.
Look who's here.
Cindy! She finally had her baby! Oh, (Sighs) And also Chyna.
Look, Mr.
Grundy, I know I didn't get into this school.
What! Chyna didn't get in? (Gasps) That's terrible! I feel so bad for you! Please, Mr.
Grundy, just give me another chance.
I recorded a new version of my audition song, and I'm begging you to let me play it for you.
Don't bother.
Come on! She deserves to be here more than anyone! Yeah.
She's the most talented person I know! And she knows Li'l Weezy! I meant don't bother because I've already seen the video.
I don't think I've made a video yet.
Yes, you have.
This building houses one of the world's largest technology companies.
Did it not occur to you when you were sneaking around, that we might have security surveillance? - You caught us on camera? - Actually, dozens of cameras.
We can watch it on the Super Mega Jumbo Ultra Maxi Z-Phone Plus Extreme.
(Playing instruments) They're telling me get back on ground.
Forget my dreams just let them drown.
But deep inside.
A voice is telling me they're wrong.
They're wrong.
I wanna know, that anything I wanna know, that anything Is possible.
If I believe.
I'm ready for Whatever future holds for me.
Can't be afraid anymore, I'm getting ready to fly.
Wish they could all see me now.
Because I'm breaking all, the boundaries tonight.
I can see the stars aligning.
Finally I'm free, to live my life.
I'm gonna keep on, keep on shining.
What gotta be gotta be.
I'm gonna follow my dreams.
There ain't no doubt about it.
I'm breaking all the boundaries tonight.
I'm breaking all the boundaries tonight.
Yeah, I can see the stars aligning.
(All cheering) That was incredible.
The work of a true prodigy.
So I'm in? You'll let me in the school? No.
Sorry, I told you already, I picked a different musical prodigy.
Seriously? You picked Lexi over Chyna? Lexi? Lexi's a math prodigy.
He means I'm good with numbers.
Musical numbers.
Because I'm a musical prodigy.
Yeah, let's move on.
- What are you talking about? - Lexi came in to audition Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You know, if they're gonna find out anyway, at least let me talk about myself.
I came in to the audition wearing a beautiful red dress.
Exceptional.
Me.
Me, me.
Me, me.
Me.
I've also been the star of many school plays, want to see some pictures? Ah! I see you have the classic Z-Phone.
Yeah.
Well, I was going to upgrade to the Z-Phone 2.
But then I realized that even though the extra half-inch of display size, means 17.
74% more screen area.
And the higher resolution increases the total number of pixels by 192,000.
It really only increases the pixels per square inch by 7.
49%.
Hardly worthwhile when you consider that the Z-Phone 2 costs 25% more.
And 33.
8% more if you take the rip-off protection plan.
You do enough shopping, you get good with numbers.
So you are one of us! You're a math nerd! I prefer the term "math princess".
So, if Lexi's not the musical prodigy, then who is? Um My nephew, Zev.
And what instrument does he play? Guitar.
Well, air guitar.
My sister Zelda said if I didn't take him, she'd take away my new dog.
And I love 123456.
But you own the school, and nothing says that you can't admit two musical prodigies.
Or one musical prodigy and him.
That 'tis true.
I don't need to choose only one type of each prodigy.
Oh! Why did I turn away all those other talented bee-talkers? Chyna, welcome to the program.
(Both exclaiming in delight) Yay! Thank you so much, Mr.
Grundy! - How can I repay you? - You can't.
I'm worth $62 billion! If you're worth that much money, we need to discuss hiring better maids.
Isn't this great, Olive? Being roommates, living together! It'll be like a slumber party every night! I can talk about boys! You can talk about rail road baron, Jay Gould.
(Sighs) I love this place.
(Air whooshing) Don't you love this place? They're just trees.
They're just trees.
Roommates, huh?
