Boys Go to Jupiter (2024) Movie Script
1
[Ghostly keyboards humming]
[unintelligible alien whimpering]
[Waves lapping at shore]
[Freckles, off screen]
Okay, give me a beat.
[Beatbox] What kind of beat?
Like chill... Like hardcore?
[Freckles] Yeah, hard.
Like old school.
[Beatboxing]
[Freckles] Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
[rapping] Chilling on the beach
and it's winter break.
We stay hot in the sunshine state.
No shirts, no shoes, no snitches.
That's what Santa
brought me for Christmas.
Step to my crew.
You would have to be nuts, passing
the mic to my little man, peanut.
Me? Yeah, you got this.
[all kids] Go, peanut.
Go, peanut, go, go.
[peanut] I am peanut.
I am peanut. I am.
P p p p p p p p
peanut.
[Beatbox stops]
Hey, peanut.
It has to rhyme.
Peanut rhymes with peanut.
Yeah, I mean, keep practicing.
Ew, look at this.
It's like a dead jellyfish or
something that washed up on the beach.
Woah! Okay. All right.
[Alien screaming]
Whuh! Whoaa!
[digging]
Pew, pew.
What was that?
I bet it was a monkey.
Like a monkey they did tests
on at a shampoo company and its
hair fell out and its legs fell off.
I think it was a guy in a costume,
and it was a construction guy,
and that's how he dug the hole.
That was crazy.
I bet we could flush it out.
Yow, its gonna bite you.
You'll get friggin rabies.
Billy can probably reach down there.
Yo, Billy, come here.
Nah, I'm gonna do a little work.
There's easy pickup down the road.
Seven dollar tip.
Only like 20 minutes.
Oh, you're doing
the pizza boy thing again?
Yeah, it's not always pizza.
It's a flexible delivery partnership.
I get to be my own boss.
I get mad tips.
It's tight.
So lame.
All right, get that money.
Yo, have you talked to Billy lately?
Like, what's up with him?
Well, he's gotta work.
We're in a recession.
Peanut, you might be too
young to understand this.
It's not about the recession.
Ever since Billy turned 16,
he's been mad different.
Like, he drops out of school,
all of a sudden he's mister working man.
Too mature for us.
I think he still likes us
cause he said he's gonna let me
use his wheels when I'm 5ft tall.
Peanut, no offense,
you're never gonna be 5ft tall.
You know, his swagway is really cool.
Obviously, it's really cool.
[engine noises]
Moolah, moolah, moolah.
Christmas is behind us
and Q1 is around the corner.
With a new cycle
there's always an energy shift.
And that means one thing.
More money.
Everything has a vibration,
including money.
And I can show you how to channel
those vibrations in the beautiful dollars.
Let's set goals.
Let's talk rezzies.
Leave a comment.
What are your New Year's resolutions?
[Upbeat, hopeful music]
[billy whizzes past]
[Intense, upbeat music kicks in]
[chickens clucking] Oh, good
morning, Ruth.
Looking sprightly.
Hello, Boris.
Staying out of trouble, I hope?
Oh, Patricia.
You get a good night's sleep?
Well, don't just stand there.
Grubster delivery.
Casahuevos.
I'm living in a casahuevos.
I've got more huevos
than casa at this point.
Look around you. Okay.
So is this your food?
Is this 87 Coral Drive?
Oh, here we go again.
I've written to the city
about this for years.
There are four 87 Coral Drives.
Mine was first,
not that anyone asked.
The app sent me to this one.
I'm gonna mark the order as delivered.
Will you take the food?
[phone buzzes] Oh, I never get delivery.
I will take the food for compost if you
take some of these eggs off my hands.
Those aren't eggs.
I think they're from the mini
golf place up the street.
[golf club swings] Hmm.
Whatever they are, they're all yours.
I don't golf.
I don't care if you golf.
Who asked?
People come around here and wanna
tell you their whole life story.
[phone buzzes] Ma'am, what's the best way
to get back to civilization?
There's a trail down at the end
of the road that pops onto the highway.
It's tricky, though.
One wrong move and you'll be
up to your neck in swamp goo.
That's fine.
I don't make wrong moves.
Thanks for grubbing with Grubster.
Have a Grubby day.
[Relaxing bell tones]
Funny little man.
Reminds me of you, Boris.
Very focused.
But is all that focus... Oh!
Oh, hey! No! [alien whimpering]
Oh, it's too early in the day for this.
Shoo!
Shoo!
[birds chirping]
[intercom] You lost? [Billy] No.
I've got food here for Rosario Dolphin.
[phone buzzes] Sorry, it's grub.
Rosie.
All right.
She's in greenhouse four.
Follow the signs.
[gate opening]
Ugh. That smells disgusting.
[Dreamy, mid-tempo pop song begins]
Tastes like heaven.
Tastes like honey.
Tastes like piles, piles, piles
of money.
Time going by
things, grow and die.
Day after Christmas.
My winter citrus.
Tastes like heaven.
Tastes like honey.
Taste like piles, piles, piles of money.
Hey, Mike, will you
hand me a watering can?
Oh, you're not Mike.
I'm filling in.
Mike fell into a ditch and broke his legs.
Oh, my God.
What ditch?
I do not know why I said that.
I'm supposed to give this
food to Rosario Dolphin.
Word.
That's me. [chewing]
I'm going by Rozebud now, with a Z.
[Twinkle]
Okay. Rozebud.
We had math class together.
I was a freshman and you were a senior.
Oh, you grew your hair out.
You're um... Billy 5000.
The human caterpillar.
The human calculator.
Yeah, right.
Cool wheels.
You're a junior now?
What's the square root of 218?
Well, actually, I dropped out recently.
Do you remember my sister Gail?
I'm actually living in her garage.
But to answer your question, it's
14.7648141805...
It just keeps going.
I'm down with it.
Reject the educational hierarchy.
That's what I did.
Came here straight out of high school.
Okay, but isn't your mom Doctor Dolphin?
Don't remind me.
I'm next in line to be "Doctor Dolphin".
Yeah.
So how does that... reject...
I'm gonna break the cycle.
Taking this place down from the
inside by not doing any work.
[insects buzzing]
I got the perfect setup here.
The grounds are so big,
nobody can keep track of me.
I try to look busy in front
of my supervisor, like three times a day.
Rest of the time I'm
communing with nature.
Eating fruit.
You like fruit, 5000?
Yeah, some fruits.
I'm not supposed to show anyone this.
Come on.
[gate opens]
[electrical humming]
This is the experimental wing.
My mom is obsessed
with these new cultivars.
Hybrids.
Honestly, okay.
She's kind of a genius.
Lunar Satsuma.
It grows in soil from a crushed up
moon rock she paid half a million
dollars for in the nineties.
Grapefruit orange combo.
It's designed for cocktails.
Cube tangerine.
I think it's easier to ship these.
This one's my favorite.
Woah.
It looks like mold, but look closer.
Each of these little blue dots is its own
special miniature fruit
that can only grow on a host lemon.
Oh.
[lights clicking on]
Rosie?
T bone!
I was looking for you.
No you weren't.
The doctor is expecting you.
We are on track to be five minutes late.
But I can minimize the damage.
[machines beeping]
Excuse me.
Out of my way.
Ah, excuse me.
I'm sorry to bother you. Doctor.
But we're ready. Doctor.
[Ominous music]
[heavy gates opening]
Hello team.
As you know,
my daughter has been studying cultivation.
Today she will demonstrate her knowledge.
I only wish I could be there in person
but well, you understand.
Rosario. Let's begin.
Mom. It's not Rosario anymore.
It's Rozebud.
This again?
We'll have to print a new ID tag.
Make sure they get the z.
We'll discuss later.
There are 100 oranges in front of you.
Your task is to select
the best one for propagation.
Uhhh.
Laser focus.
Remember the four s's. Okay?
Okay. Looking for shape.
Size.
Saturation, and...
Uh... s...
Skin. Don't help her!
I knew that, skin.
Um.
This one?
Are you telling me or are you asking me?
Uh.
I'm telling you?
In that case, you are lying.
Credit where it's due
this is one of the better oranges
in the batch.
Looks like an 85 out of 100.
Yet.
Yet from this sample size,
we would expect to find a better specimen.
What is that?
It's throwing off my sensors.
It's onion rings.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I've been working all morning.
I needed grub.
The protocol, dear.
Outside contaminants. Please take it to
the break room.
We are done here.
[alert] Message from PYL logistics
regarding shipment delays.
Can you turn that off, please?
A promising performance, doctor.
T bone, don't sugarcoat it.
She has no interest
in taking over the company.
She was such a promising child.
So obedient. What went wrong?
I can crunch the numbers on that.
Oh, when I was her age, I had
already released a chart topping hit.
Do you remember?
Who could forget the cran-
grapefruit cocktail?
You had a knack for it doctor.
The family gift.
And mind you, this was at a time when
hybrids were completely out of fashion.
Over 20 million cartons sold.
[entrancing, focused music]
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[machines beeping]
There it is.
Oh.
[assistants] Size: 44 cm.
Shape: 97% topographic uniformity.
Saturation: nearly full.
Skin: no visible defects.
Doc, that's, uh...
A 95.
Run the numbers yourself,
but I'm sure of it.
Let's propagate.
[light clapping]
Leave me alone with this
specimen.
Juice the rest.
[Upbeat electronic waltz music]
[music ends]
[skateboard rolling]
We need a good snag.
Yeah it's been a while.
Okay, this one.
Like we practiced.
[car approaching]
[horn honking]
Ohh. Aaaaah!
Owww!
Oh, God. I didn't see you.
Are you okay?
So much pain.
Mommy, did you kill somebody?
Miss? Lady? Help me.
I'm calling an ambulance.
Don't move.
No, don't call an ambulance.
I think I'll be okay if you
buy us a twelve pack of beer.
Oh my God, you little asshole.
Something drinkable?
Uh, a six pack would be fine.
Esta todo bien seora?
That lady ran over my friend.
I got the whole thing on tape.
Oh, this place is a zoo.
I'll be getting my gas
elsewhere from now on.
These cretins
should be in school.
Yeah, that's your opinion.
Mommy I have to pee.
Ay no, chicos no me den problem as.
Vyanse.
This curb is public property.
We have human rights.
Ustedes creen que me import a?
Pues no. Saben cual es mi fantasia?
Que un camin venga
se estrelle contra la gasolinera
explote, los mate a todos
me derrita la Cara
y me den seis meses de vacacin pagada.
Vyanse.
Okay, man, chill. It's all good.
We have places to be.
We do?
Everyone's on cop mode these days.
Like, oh, don't hang
out at the gas station.
Don't hang out at the beach.
Okay?
What else is there?
I used to think that gas
station guy was cool.
Can you believe that?
[horn honking]
Go around.
[Cars crash]
[insects buzzing]
Why do they drain the pools?
It's warm enough.
It is not. I'm freezing.
Something's wrong with you.
They should study you.
Peanut, did you get a good haul from
the gas station
while we distracted the guy?
Buckle up, boys.
I got
straws and napkins.
The straws and napkins are free.
Did I mention
ketchup packets?
That's not a snag.
I know.
I couldn't do it.
What if God saw me?
God doesn't watch gas stations.
Hmm.
Oh, that reminds me.
Two snags today.
First, I got all these golf balls,
and check this out.
Audacious lick from the Dolphin grow labs.
Experimental lemon. Not on the market.
What? Yowza.
How much do you think that's worth?
I have no idea.
Priceless?
No such thing as priceless.
We need a good appraiser.
You got balls, Billy.
I've made some good snags,
but I wouldn't steal from Doctor Dolphin.
Why not?
You don't know the legend
of Doctor Dolphin?
[Eerie, ghostly music]
So, everyone knows.
In the 1960s, they were doing
experiments at Cape Carniveral. For NASA.
They were studying dolphins
for their intelligence.
And things got really twisted.
They spent tons of taxpayer dollars
to create this half human,
half dolphin hybrid.
It was only 4ft tall,
so it was perfect to operate
the little space capsule.
And it was really smart.
Too smart.
It rebelled against NASA
and escaped into the swamps.
After a while, they assumed it
didn't survive, but it came back.
As a businesswoman.
She built the juice company
from the ground up with her savvy mind.
And according to the legend,
that dolphin is still there,
living underneath
the orange juice factory.
[Eerie music stops]
That's not true, is it?
I think you're getting it confused
with how they invented Gatorade.
Uh, no.
Nobody invented Gatorade.
It's a liquid, like milk.
Nobody invented milk.
Hmm.
Um, Billy, he's doing it again.
[snoring]
Milk.
My g.
When's the last time you went to sleep?
Sleep is for rich people.
Am I rich?
Not yet.
Don't tell anyone about this, okay?
I'm on a really good hustle.
I busted Grubster.
[Upbeat music]
So drivers are paid in G points.
They do that so it's harder to keep track
of how much money you're making.
When you want to get paid out
first you have to exchange
your G points for cash.
But look at this, it doesn't
have to be US dollars.
If you scroll down,
you can pick up the Czech Koruna.
And then this is where someone messed up.
When it transfers over,
it gives you the Danish Krona.
Krona for Koruna.
Anyone can make that mistake.
And the exchange rate
between those two is
7.2 to 1.
So if I do $100 of deliveries,
I can get $720 bucks
bro, how did you figure this out?
[Music stops] I just told you.
[Yawn]
I have to make as many deliveries as I
can before someone on Grubster finds out.
Cause when they patch that glitch...
[night insects chirping loudly]
[Soft keyboard arpeggios]
Florida at night.
It gets cooler when they turn out
all the lights.
Florida sometimes,
it just feels like this place
wants me to die.
[Fast drums kick in]
Where am I going?
I just turned sixteen.
I know everything.
I just need 5 G's.
I just need some sleep.
[Song fades out]
[morning birds chirping]
Hmm.
[basketball bouncing]
Huh?
Excuse me.
Oh, Miss Sharon.
Good morning.
Merry Christmas.
Would be a lot merrier if
my detached garage wasn't desecrated.
You wouldn't happen to know
anything about that, would you?
Shhh.
Maybe it showed up by itself?
Act of G-o-d type thing.
Whoever is responsible for this
transgression will be dealt with,
if not by the big man himself,
then by local authorities.
Out of curiosity, this is
not an admission of guilt,
but what is the big man's
punishment for tagging up a garage?
Well, I'd have to check the book.
Mm hmm.
Yep, just what I thought.
Petty vandalism, third
trapezoid of damnation.
You could get five or 600
years of hellfire per letter.
Wow. That could really add up.
You've had your fun.
Judgment day is not far off.
Get right while you still can.
No one ever got to heaven
on an electric vehicle.
Sleeping beauty.
Welcome to the waking world.
You slept for two days.
We thought you were dead.
Hi, Gail.
Can I have a coffee?
Coffee?
Since when?
It's his thing now.
I'll have one too.
Double expresso.
How was your Christmas?
Bloody, as usual.
You should see it, Billy.
It's head trauma all day, every day.
Old people slipping in the shower,
car accidents.
But most of all, boys your age
riding around with no helmet.
I know you don't listen to me ever,
but I don't like you doing these
deliveries, especially at night.
Okay.
You think I'm exaggerating?
Come by the ER.
See for yourself.
[Splat] Ooh.
I'm good.
Oh, did you see
the envelope on the fridge?
Mom sent you a 100 bucks.
Tell her she doesn't have to do that.
I'm making my own money now.
Why don't you tell her yourself?
When's the last time you talked to her?
Six months ago.
8 days, 16 hours, 20 minutes.
Yeah, I don't like when you do that.
It's freaky.
Save it for calculus.
Wait, but he doesn't...
You're right.
You're right, you're right.
Why don't you keep that money, Gale?
You buy me so much food and stuff.
Uh uh.
You're gonna focus on school.
You're gonna get a scholarship.
You're gonna get a good job, and then
you can pay me back
when you're rich.
[coffee machine beeping]
Bye, losers.
I'll be home super late.
Wash your hands if you've
been touching money.
So when are you gonna tell
Gail you dropped out of school?
Are you kidding?
She would go berserkums.
I have to get my finances
sorted out first.
If I save up $5,000
I can put down a deposit in my own place
and pay her back for letting me live here.
She has nothing to freak out about.
I think she's still gonna find
something to freak out about.
Okay.
Moolah, moolah, moolah.
Are you practicing the moolah mantra?
I want you to take that goal number of
yours and repeat it three times in a row.
Three times a day.
Trust me, things will start happening.
A new side hustle will appear
and triple your income.
It could be flipping houses,
breeding puppies.
I don't know.
The universe can be so generous.
[Upbeat electronic song begins]
Junk removal.
What a business.
Look how tall that heap of trash is.
Every house makes so much garbage.
Junk removal
maybe that's where all the cash is.
Picking up orders.
Dropping off dinners.
90 degrees.
Florida winters.
Too hot.
Too sweaty.
Everything on me feels so heavy.
Eyelids, legs and belly.
Why do I always feel so heavy?
[Song ends abruptly]
Oh, it's these stupid golf balls.
[golf balls being thrown]
[happy alien cooing sounds]
[Intense, chaotic jazz drums]
What is that?
Hi, don't dump golf
balls on the road, please.
[Chaotic jazz drumming continues]
Have a Grubby day.
[ocean waves lapping]
Am I in the right place?
Do you have spaghetti?
Then you're in the right place.
Apparently, guy orders spaghetti
from every place in town.
I've already been here twice this morning.
My theory, he's a traveling food critic.
Specifically,
a spaghetti critic, good tipper.
I love a spaghetti.
I used to think I loved spaghetti
more than anyone else in the world.
Now with this guy on the scene,
I'm not so sure anymore.
After he tried five or six spaghettis
in one day, they would all taste the same.
Now, fettuccine, on the other hand.
Cool wheels.
Have a grubby day.
$5,000.
[unzipping backpack]
Okay.
What?
What is this?
[biting]
Ow. No.
[alien cooing unintelligibly]
Yeah, yeah, that's better.
What is.
Are you like a little donut?
Doh
Nut
That's funny.
Do nut.
Do. Hi.
Donut, donut, donut.
[shower running]
[thud]
[old lady] oof!
[shower continues running]
[knocking]
Hello?
Grubster pickup.
Two monster cheese dogs and a shake,
it's gonna be a minute.
Making them fresh.
Fine.
[cars passing by]
Usually around this time of year,
we get no traffic.
What with tourism season being over.
Conventional wisdom would be such to shut
the place down from November to February
but, hey, I live in the dog
I'm here all day as is.
Why not keep it open,
even if it's just for Byron?
Who's Byron?
You're picking up for Byron, right?
He orders from me all the time.
Far as I know, he's never come
here in person and seen the dog.
Isn't that kind of odd?
That's really none of my business.
Maybe so, but, I mean, let's face it,
everybody wants to see the dog.
The food is not the point.
People want to take a picture
or they need to use the restroom.
Can I be straight up with you?
The hot dogs we sell here, they're good.
And I'm not just saying that out
of a point of personal pride.
I'm saying it because I'm a hot dog guy
and I've eaten quite a few in my day.
This might well be the best in town.
And no one seems to care.
Except Byron?
Maybe Byron's the only one in this
town with his head on straight.
And the rest of us are all too
blinded by the spectacle,
too focused on the big
dog to care about our own
little dogs.
How long is this
conversation gonna go on for?
I don't mean to be rude.
I'm just wondering.
Point taken.
I hear you loud and clear, my man.
Loud and clear.
Give my regards to Byron.
I'm actually not allowed
to give any regards.
Grubster policy.
Have a Grubby day.
Where I come from,
a man picks up his own dogs.
[Inspirational, fuzzy
dream pop song begins]
One thing I don't mind
is running errands all the time.
Being outside getting tan
easy way to make five grand.
I always got something to do,
I'm never going back to school.
[Song fades out]
Hot dog man?
Hot dog man.
Chew those up for me.
What?
Chew up the hot dogs.
Make things a little easier for me.
I hate chewing.
I can't do that.
It's a health concern.
Oh, no.
I have you people do this all the time.
I'll give you a $10 cash tip.
Let's not do this all day.
I'm getting hungry.
$20, final offer.
And put them in the basket so I
don't have to come down there.
$5,000.
[chewing]
Yeah. Nice.
[Sharon] It's here!
I sawn it!
Lock your doors,
repent for your sins!
The worm from the center of the earth
has arrived to devour us!
They predicted this!
If you take a look at revelations,
it's all there.
It's spelled out in plain English!
Yo, Sharon's gone totally bonkers.
Imagine if you could draw like that.
Like, if you were really good at drawing,
you could draw a girl with huge boobs
and then you could look
at it anytime you wanted.
Yeah, but Sharon would never draw boobs.
She would only draw, hold up.
Is that the freaking
monster we saw at the beach?
Uh, no, probably not.
It's a crazy drawing.
Let's not look at it anymore.
You didn't even see the monster.
You were all the way
on the other side of the beach.
I saw it.
I got right up close to it.
We gotta go back.
I bet we could find it
and get on the news.
[waves crashing]
What's our plan here?
Do you gotta have your shirt off, man?
Um, yeah, it's the beach.
No shirt, no shoes.
No problem.
But guess where I read that?
A shirt.
I found something!
Oh, it's Billy.
I thought the point of dropping out
is you don't have to read anymore.
You know, the kid's a freak.
Obsessive.
He gets hopped up on something and becomes
an expert and then it's been two weeks
and he hasn't brushed his
damn teeth the whole time.
[alien cooing]
Oh, jeez.
How'd you get over here?
Alright, you gotta go back to where
you came from first thing tomorrow.
[Twinkling bell arpeggios]
[beat box] This is feeling a little bogus.
Can we come back in the morning?
[Freckles] It's gonna be too late by then.
Sharon's probably already
talking to the CIA.
[Peanut] Ew, something touched my foot.
Oh, it was seaweed.
Is that good?
Is that something?
Nah, I got nothing.
[Music fades out very slowly]
[knocking] Hello?
Is the fussy old lady here?
I was here last week with Grubster.
I have some questions.
The golf balls you give me are defective.
[running water]
Everything okay in there?
I don't want to intrude.
I'm just gonna set this bag
down and I'm gonna go on my way.
Oh.
[ambulance siren]
The old slippy trippy special.
That's gotta be the third one this week.
Like, ever heard of a bathmat?
Can we get something to eat after this?
Yes, I'm starving.
What was that sandwich
place we went to last week?
You read my mind, friend.
I've been thinking about a Reuben all day.
All right, little man,
we're all done here.
Thanks for calling it in.
Don't steal anything on the way out.
Wink, wink.
[Ambulance door slamming]
[Ambulance driving off]
Okay. Donut.
Don't eat that.
[chomp]
[rain hitting ground]
[phone buzzing]
Okay, fine.
I'll take a little break.
Five minutes.
Till the rain passes.
Are you all good?
All good.
[Slow, mournful song begins]
87 Coral Drive.
You slipped and fell,
you're not alive.
That's all fine
you had a good amount of time.
87
I hope they have chickens in heaven.
[Sad violin solo]
[music ends]
When the old man died, he left me
his golf course under one condition.
That he be buried under the 18th hole.
I had some reservations.
The grave site wasn't exactly
on theme for a Cretaceous Holes.
Nevertheless, I made it work.
That's what running
a business is all about.
Adapting.
Delivery for Herschel Cretaceous.
That's me.
My weekly BLT.
Cool wheels.
Thank you.
Now you give me compliment.
Uh hmm.
I got nothing.
Sorry.
Have a Grubby day.
A working lunch before the afternoon rush.
It's what the old man would have wanted.
[alien rustling]
[chewing]
$5,000, $5,000, $5,000.
$5,000.
[digital error noises]
Huh?
Hi!
Bahhh bahh! What?
Bahhhh!
Bahh bah bah! Bah bah ba-bah!
Ughh.
[bathroom ambience]
[Sad electronic music]
Time to go.
Time to flush you down.
You never know,
Maybe I'll see you around.
Down the drain.
People do this every day.
Down the drain.
It's okay to walk away.
[song ends]
[intercom] Hello?
Can you hear me?
This is private property.
Hello?
Do something if you can hear me.
[rozebud humming]
Rozebud.
You kind of turned your head a little.
Was that a?
Are you responding to my voice?
All right, that was a close call.
For you.
Adios.
Oh, the man himself,
gracing us with his presence.
What up, fellas?
We're going down to the train tracks,
do a little train track stuff.
You in?
Yeah, I could do train tracks.
It's been a while.
Oh, my God.
Dude, you smell like a pet store.
He's right.
I can smell you from here.
I could smell you from down the road.
When's the last time
you took a shower, dog?
Thanksgiving?
Yeah, I don't know.
Haven't had the time.
I'm living for the hustle.
[bike crashes]
[shower running]
[Billy humming]
Ooo-ee!
Jesus!
Yo, Billy, what shirt are you gonna wear?
Cause I wanna wear
I'm with stupid, but I don't
want us to wear the same thing.
Look stupid at the tracks.
Yeah, listen, I'm doing
some leave in conditioner.
It's gonna take a second,
so just go ahead.
I'll meet you guys there.
Wanna hear my rap?
Peanut get out of here!
Go away.
What did I do?
You can't walk in on a
shower without knocking.
Give me some privacy.
Oh, I don't care if you're naked.
It's very all naturale.
Hiii.
Hiii.
Okay.
Are you, like.
Do you, do you think I'm your mom?
Come here.
[Evening crickets chirping]
No one comes in here.
Don't make a fuss while I'm gone
and I'll bring you back some food.
[Gail] What you doing back there, bud?
[Billy] Nothing.
Science project.
Don't look at it.
It'll burn your eyes out.
[Gail] Okay.
Wear sunscreen.
[Peanut] Can I wear sunscreen?
[Gail] It never hurts.
[Ominous music]
Hmm.
Unexpected but promising.
[Laboratory equipment whirring]
9 minutes, 15 seconds.
Hi.
The R&D tower is perfectly
centered within the campus.
Why do you think that is?
Because it's in the middle.
Because it is the brain of the entire
Dolphin Groves' nervous system.
It is tactical.
No other spot on the compound is
more than a 7 minute walk away.
So I have to wonder, where were you?
What task had you so far flung that it
took you 9 minutes,
15 seconds to get here, dear?
Okay, point taken.
I'll stay late and make up the minutes.
I don't want your minutes.
I want my minutes.
I'm giving myself a headache.
T bone, pull the footage.
This delivery boy,
he was here twice this week?
Yes, he brought in some Grubster.
Bad attitude.
And as per security protocol.
Did anyone get his name?
Mmmm.
Rosario. What can you tell me?
You chatted with him
for almost 3 minutes.
Is he a peer of yours?
An old friend from school?
One of your radical layabout comrades?
Is he selling you drugs?
[Rozebud humming]
Not helpful, dear.
Oh, are you talking to me?
Because you kept saying Rosario.
Roooozebud.
Who is he?
I don't know.
[Ominous music]
Track him down.
Whatever it takes.
He has something that belongs to me.
[Cheerful holiday hold music]
Thank you for your patience. You're
on the road with Grubster partner support.
This is Nan.
How can I help you today?
Hi, Nan.
I'm trying to cash out
and some of my money's missing.
Okay, I can absolutely take
a look at that for you.
Let me just pull up your
account information.
Name? First name is Billy.
Last name is 5000.
Username is Billy5000.
Okay, I see what happened here.
I can adjust this right now.
Great.
Thank you.
Oh, don't say thank you just yet.
You might not like this.
So you never really had those $3,000
it was a technical error with the app.
I'm so sorry about that, sweetie.
Can you just confirm to me that you're
seeing the correct balance?
$394.28
Yeah, that's what it says,
but the money was there in my account.
If Grubster made a mistake,
shouldn't they be on the hook of that?
We're transferring you
to another Grubster associate.
Due to holiday congestion,
the wait times may be longer than usual.
I was already on hold for an hour.
[Holiday hold music resumes]
Hey, Rozebud.
Thanks for meeting me.
So I have two pancake burger combos.
Large orange juice and styrofoam
with no ice. Syrup on the side.
Oh, you already ordered?
Kind of.
It was just sitting on the counter.
Every place does that now for deliveries.
You can take the food
and when the real delivery person comes
they just make it again.
No one cares.
That's really radical.
Exploit the oversights
in a dehumanized system.
Very cool way to reallocate
material goods.
If you don't want the pancake burger,
there's probably something else.
I'll try it.
It's like pancakes instead of a bun.
I think it's pancakes instead of lettuce
and maple syrup instead of cheese.
It's pretty good.
There's an egg.
Not where you'd think an egg would be.
To be honest, I was
super surprised when you texted.
I thought you were gay.
Oh.
Okay.
The reason I asked you here
is I need a small favor.
You think I'm hot though, right?
Not that I care.
That's kind of a separate conversation.
Can you help me get a job?
I can peel oranges.
Um, I don't know.
I could drive a golf cart.
You know they asked me about you.
They have all this security footage.
They were asking me if
I knew who you were.
I didn't narc.
What's the deal? You stole something?
Oh, valid.
Yeah, you're gonna walk
right in and get a job.
Dude, you're hilarious.
No, I like that you have this, like,
nihilistic worldview, like,
operating within these capitalist
structures but rejecting
them at the same time.
That's my plan at Dolphin.
Dismantle it from the inside.
How are you gonna do that?
You gotta read this.
It lays out the whole playbook.
Are you into freak jazz?
Freak jazz?
I don't know.
If you were into freak jazz
you would know.
[Freak jazz plays in the background]
[Billy reading to himself] Chapter one.
An insurmountable equilibrium.
Capitalist dichotomies exist everywhere,
even and especially in nature.
To understand differential stratification,
one need look no further than
the ground beneath one's feet.
Consider the common garden snail.
The self containment of the snail,
with its home built into its body makes it
an ideal worker in an
individualistic society.
In deep contrast, consider the ant.
Each ant is little more than a millionth
of the greater social unit, the colony.
Resultantly, the life of each
ant is worth precious little.
Under a magnifying glass,
the beauty of a snail's spiral
shell is enhanced and appreciated.
Under the very same magnifying
glass, an ant is fried.
It probably goes without saying
that in this metaphor,
the magnifying glass is market forces
the ant colony is the supply chain,
and the snails are economic theorists.
[Freak jazz ends]
Hiii.
Are you doing okay?
You're hungry?
You didn't eat your sandwich.
Okay, that's fine.
Um, what about these
chicken fingers? Mmm.
Fries?
[chewing]
No, no, no. That's the box.
Uh, you're really going for it.
Bro!
Why did you do that?
No, it's okay.
It's okay.
[beat boxing]
Okay Freckles, rap at us.
The theme is... Breakfast at night.
Ha ha!
Ha.
Okay!
Ha ha.
No, ugh.
Beatbox. [beat boxing stops]
There's something I gotta
tell you. All you guys.
I'm out of the rap game. What?
I'm transferring over
to sensitive ballads.
Huh?
You're such a good rapper.
Yeah, that's kind of the problem.
I feel like I've done all there is
to do in the world of hip hop.
Um, do you still want me to beat box?
It's not very sensitive.
Do you want to shake this can of beans?
[guitar tuning]
[Unskilled folk music begins]
Eggs again.
I think I'll have eggs again.
There's so many different
ways to have eggs.
You could have a
different way every day.
Fried or scrambled, whatever your angle.
Hollandaise, deviled eggs, mayonnaise
all from the same egg.
Incredible.
Edible egg.
Crack it and it runs down your leg.
[Billy] What's your deal?
Why are you doing that?
What are you doing?
What do you want?
We all start as eggs.
Feed me.
Feed me.
Feed me. Feed me.
Feed me an egg.
[song stops] Okay Beatbox, we're done.
[beat box] Brrrrap!
Ohhh!
As estaba cuando yo vine seor.
En ruin as.
The course.
My father's beautiful course.
It hasn't even been six
months since we renovated.
Shelly, who did this to you?
Local teens?
Mire seor,
yo se un poquito de huellas.
Mire la form a que tienen.
Y mire las mordidas.
Esto no fue hecho por adolescentes.
Esto aqui lo hizo un, como le
llaman a eso? Como se dice?
Un opposum.
I'm so sorry, Shelley.
After all these trillions of years,
the cycle of nature continues.
[Medieval video game music]
Foolish traveler, ha ha ha,
your journey has been in vain.
You will never claim
the riches of the goblin's cave.
Go between his legs!
I was gonna.
The amulet! Press B!
Get the amulet!
I can't focus when you're yelling at me.
Do you guys see my lemon anywhere?
No.
What lemon?
Uh, the snag from Doctor Dolphin's.
The experimental spotty lemon.
Oh, yeah.
No.
He probably ate it and forgot about it.
Or Gail threw it away
because it was moldy.
She never throws anything away.
Where's Peanut?
Let's just say
he's taking a bathroom break.
[outdoor ambience]
[muffled] Hello?
Does anyone know how
long I've been in here?
I gotcha. I gotcha.
Blah!
It kinda stinks in there,
but I was pretty much used to it.
This is gross.
Peanut you can't let those guys
push you around like that.
Dude, you ruined it!
He needs to marinate
for another 45 minutes.
Am I still initiated?
You're barely medium rare.
You guys are pricks.
Like, seriously, grow up. Whoa.
Where is this coming from?
Toilet time is a rite of passage.
Don't you remember when
we did toilet time?
Yeah, you almost died.
It's true.
Toilet time changed you.
This is why I don't hang
out with you guys anymore.
This is really how you want
to spend your whole life?
Bumming around forever?
There's cash money to be made out there.
Okay, thank you so much for the lecture.
I had no idea we had a sucky life.
I never would have figured that out.
Good thing we've got the world's
smartest pizza boy here.
I'm not a pizza boy!
Are you a boy?
Do you deliver pizzas?
[Spitting]
Find my lemon!
Wicka wicka errr.
Are you mad at me?
Moolah, moolah, moolah.
They just drew the mega ball.
Winning number is 5172953 and 67.
Notice something strange?
All prime numbers.
It's just like I've been saying.
The secret to getting rich is numbers.
More numbers, more money.
I'm always saying this, you can't win
if you don't buy a ticket.
Another loser? Yep.
Prize pot is 100 million.
Imagine. It's probably for the best.
After taxes, you'd only
end up with 50 million.
And a lot of lottery winners end
up suicidal or even bankrupt.
So why'd you buy the ticket?
Um.
The fantasy, I guess.
I like thinking about
what I do with the money.
I wouldn't let anyone know
right away, of course.
But one day I'd showed up to work
and there'd be nothing here.
Empty field.
Because I bought the whole company.
And in the middle of the night,
I had everything bulldozed.
I'd bulldoze the R&D, building,
the bottling plant, even this greenhouse.
But I'd leave all the trees
and there would be a little
sign that said, Free oranges.
Take as many as you want.
Wait I love that.
From the time I got the ticket up until
now, I was just renting that fantasy.
That's really what you pay for.
Is this HR? The gate was open.
No tours today.
I'm here about a grounds keeping job.
[industrial humming noises]
[Walkie talkie beeps]
Eh-hem. We're ready, doctor.
[mechanical transformation sounds]
Oh.
Billy 5000.
Do you know why you're here?
Uh yes, I am self motivated,
I thrive in challenging environments.
Hmm. What else?
Right. Of course.
I'm a straight shooter
and a quick learner.
And I love watering cans and hoses.
And what about this?
No one can prove anything.
I know my rights.
That could be anyone.
A lot of people look like that.
Okay, so what happened was
the lemon fell into my bag.
Enough with the lemon.
I don't care.
Oh, wait.
What do you want?
What do I want?
I want to tell you a story.
[Spooky music]
Decades ago, my mother
was alone in the swamp.
Alone and afraid.
That's when she found them.
Or rather, they found her.
My mother called them angels
but they didn't come from heaven.
They came from the ground.
They gave her a very special gift.
A perfect orange.
The one she used to found this company.
The creatures left,
but they promised to return.
I know the angels are back.
I also know you have one of them.
It belongs to me.
To you?
This specimen might be an endearing pet,
but it has great industrial potential.
These creatures emit a special radiation.
One that makes fruits
grow bigger, rounder.
All due respect, doctor,
don't bother explaining.
He doesn't even know the four s's.
Size, shape, saturation, skin.
Yeah, they teach that in kindergarten.
You're a very smart kid.
And you lie.
You have a promising future.
This can go two ways.
I can press charges for my stolen lemon.
You'll be tried as an adult due
to the severity of the crime.
Or you can bring me the specimen.
In exchange, I'll name
a flavor of juice after you.
I think we both know this
is bigger than juice.
Oh, young people.
Nothing's ever easy.
A cash payment for your little pet.
$5,000.
My best and final offer.
Hmm.
It's interesting.
I'll think it over.
Bring the creature in as soon as possible.
Don't talk to any other juicers.
[mechanical ramp lifts up]
[insects buzzing]
So she doesn't care about the lemon at all
and now she's
offering you a fat payout?
Pretty lucky.
Sort of, if you think about it.
It's a classic ulc.
What's that?
Oh, you know,
an undistributed leverage curve.
Like as a human being,
I'm worthless to Doctor Dolphin.
Kind of a nuisance.
As a worker, I have marginal utility,
but I'm more or less replaceable.
As the holder of a productive asset,
I have some negotiating power for once.
I learned about it from
the book that you gave me.
To be straight up with you,
I did not finish that book.
But I got the gist.
You learn about the curve on page 4.
It goes without saying, but you
obviously can't take the money.
The cost to your integrity is too high.
Cost to my integrity?
You've got a huge family
fortune no matter what you do.
For me, it's a different situation.
No, it's not.
Okay, hypothetical.
A stranger wants to pay you to chew
up a hot dog while they watch.
How much would that cost?
I wouldn't do that.
I'm a vegetarian.
I got an idea.
Let's read your palm.
[Romantic background music] Hmmm.
Yeah.
See this?
It's your money line.
It says you're gonna be rich.
Your life line is fractured.
A big change is coming up.
And then here's your love line.
It's wiggly.
You have romance in your immediate future.
How did you get all of that
from looking at my hand?
I made it up.
Stupid ass.
Billy, there's something
I want you to do for me.
Yeah?
Will you
introduce me to your
friend with the freckles?
I think I'm in love with him.
[cars passing by]
[knocking] Grubster delivery.
Taste of Italy for-
I got a spaghetti here.
Are you the spaghetti critic?
[phone buzzing]
It's not gonna fit.
All right, you're all set.
Cash tip is appreciated.
Have a Grubby day.
[coins landing]
[air conditioner humming]
[electronic sci-fi sounds]
[Sentimental song begins]
[Song ends]
[chewing]
[sci-fi beeps]
[cosmic explosion]
How's the science project loser?
I'm wrapping it up.
[bubbles popping]
Gail, I think I'm about
to get my hands on some money.
I'm gonna pay you back for everything.
I know, that big brain is our meal ticket.
That's why I kept you around.
But what if I didn't have a big brain?
Uh, you'd have to bring
something else to the table.
Probably compassion or positive energy.
You wouldn't be allowed
to be so off putting.
You're turning out okay.
I'm proud of you.
[phone buzzes] Oh. Huh.
It's mom.
Oh wow? She reached out.
That's a good sign.
She ordered a pizza.
A pizza?
Oh, boy.
[Heavy rock music]
[knocking]
[muffled] Who is that?
It's Billy.
Huh?
It's Billy.
I'm working here for Grubster.
I have your delivery.
What?
Pizza.
Thank you, sweetie pie.
[muffled male voice] Who was it?
Pizza boy.
[Sad, downtempo music]
$5,000.
$5,000.
[Music becomes upbeat]
Hey, Donut.
I changed my mind.
I don't know if you're really even
aware of what's going on.
But I'm not going to sell
you to Doctor Dolphin.
I really need the money, but I think we
can figure out another way to get it.
I'm gonna take you back to the garage.
Then I don't really know.
We'll see what happens!
It'll just be
[music stops] Ahh!
[car approaches]
Ahhhhh! Ahhhhh!
Oh my God.
Did I hit my head?
Hit my head.
Donut, did you just, like, save my life?
Hey.
Do you guys know each other?
[Hopeful song begins]
[Song ends]
What's going on here?
[electronic downloading sounds]
Billy, I saw everything.
My sweet baby would not
have survived without you.
Oh, sure, yeah, Donut's cool.
Glad I could help.
I have to say, I'm impressed.
You'd make a great dad.
You wanna, I don't know, give this a shot?
Uh, you and me?
I know, I know.
Is it traditional?
No.
Is it what you thought
you were looking for?
Probably not.
Could we make it work?
Hey, who knows?
It would be an adjustment for sure.
We live in a cave 10,000ft
below the surface of the earth.
It's not fancy,
but for a single mom, I do alright.
This is my least favorite
part of vacation.
Having to wrangle all the kids.
[cosmic energy blast]
Is that everyone?
[splash]
[alert] Message from Billy 5000.
Not going to sell you the creature sry.
Still interested in gardening
job if its available thx.
Knock, knock.
Is this a good time
to go over some creative?
Not especially.
I was thinking we could
mix pomegranate and pomelo.
Call it pom pom.
Pom pom?
Your make or break idea is pom pom.
But we can talk about it later.
Ugh! Grahh!
[Agitated, evil music]
It's not your fault, dear.
It's not. It's not it's not.
My once in a lifetime chance
to get my hands on one of the angels
and it just slips through my fingers.
Of course it does!
What's the point?
I turned my mother's company from
a hippy dippy roadside shack
into a top three juicer.
I've patented a dozen new breeds.
And for what?
For what?
I give my life to this company.
And still we're down 4% year over year.
I can't catch a lemon licking
break to save my life!
[Music ends]
[alert] Assistance requested
on sub-basement level.
You shouldn't see me like this, dear.
Why don't you excuse yourself?
[rozebud humming]
[Mechanical elevator descending]
Hello, Mother.
[dolphin noises]
I know it doesn't look great.
[dolphin noises]
It's a temporary setback.
It's manageable.
[dolphin noises]
Mother.
Yes.
Yes, the hippy dippy roadside
shack was a poor choice of words.
You know I didn't mean it.
This company is my life and I, I-
[Dolphin noises]
Mother! Respectfully, Rosario is
not ready for a leadership role
and you haven't even
heard my new ideas for-
How can you say that?
What about the cran grapefruit cocktail?
The vitamin C morning mood booster?
The juice business ebbs and flows.
You taught me that.
Mother. We can ride this out.
[Dolphin noises]
If that's what's best for the company.
[unintelligible sobbing]
Huh.
I wonder what they talk about in there.
[Swamp draining sounds, intense wind]
A new life awaits, handsome.
I know it's a big choice.
Experience the natural
beauty of a new world.
Build a relationship,
watch these kids grow up.
Or stay here, in Florida. Till you die.
I have to decide right now?
It's a lot to take in.
Sweetie pie,
not doing anything is still a decision.
You know where to find me.
Smooches!
I feel like we were just starting
to get used to each other.
Have a Grubby day.
[Crowd counting] Ten!
Nine!
Eight!
Seven!
Six!
Five!
Four!
Three!
Two!
One!
Happy new year!
[Auld lang syne played on guitar]
[Fireworks exploding]
[Music stops abruptly]
Moolah moolah moolah!
We are a week into the year.
Are you keeping your resolutions?
It's honestly so easy once you tune
yourself in to the wavelength of wealth.
And our sponsor, Grubster,
makes it even easier.
You order the food,
someone else does the rest.
You don't even have to say thank you.
Saves time.
Time is money.
And money is moolah.
Get out there and have a Grubby day.
[School bus stopping]
There he is.
Hey, Peanut. How was school?
Same old.
Is Billy here?
I took his lemon to show and tell,
but now he can have it back.
Nobody's seen him since New Year's.
Must be he finally got all his money
together and left town.
He wouldn't bail on us like that.
Good for him if he did.
He'll probably send us
a postcard, once he gets settled.
People don't send postcards
anymore, clown penis.
Then why are there mailboxes clown penis?
For coupons.
Well, I'd love to talk
about coupons all day
but I've got some business to attend to.
You guys wouldn't understand.
[Rozebud humming]
[Reprise of Rozebud's song]
Tastes like heaven.
Tastes like honey.
Tastes like piles, piles, piles.
Of money.
[Reprise of orange juice factory waltz]
[Ghostly keyboards humming]
[unintelligible alien whimpering]
[Waves lapping at shore]
[Freckles, off screen]
Okay, give me a beat.
[Beatbox] What kind of beat?
Like chill... Like hardcore?
[Freckles] Yeah, hard.
Like old school.
[Beatboxing]
[Freckles] Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
[rapping] Chilling on the beach
and it's winter break.
We stay hot in the sunshine state.
No shirts, no shoes, no snitches.
That's what Santa
brought me for Christmas.
Step to my crew.
You would have to be nuts, passing
the mic to my little man, peanut.
Me? Yeah, you got this.
[all kids] Go, peanut.
Go, peanut, go, go.
[peanut] I am peanut.
I am peanut. I am.
P p p p p p p p
peanut.
[Beatbox stops]
Hey, peanut.
It has to rhyme.
Peanut rhymes with peanut.
Yeah, I mean, keep practicing.
Ew, look at this.
It's like a dead jellyfish or
something that washed up on the beach.
Woah! Okay. All right.
[Alien screaming]
Whuh! Whoaa!
[digging]
Pew, pew.
What was that?
I bet it was a monkey.
Like a monkey they did tests
on at a shampoo company and its
hair fell out and its legs fell off.
I think it was a guy in a costume,
and it was a construction guy,
and that's how he dug the hole.
That was crazy.
I bet we could flush it out.
Yow, its gonna bite you.
You'll get friggin rabies.
Billy can probably reach down there.
Yo, Billy, come here.
Nah, I'm gonna do a little work.
There's easy pickup down the road.
Seven dollar tip.
Only like 20 minutes.
Oh, you're doing
the pizza boy thing again?
Yeah, it's not always pizza.
It's a flexible delivery partnership.
I get to be my own boss.
I get mad tips.
It's tight.
So lame.
All right, get that money.
Yo, have you talked to Billy lately?
Like, what's up with him?
Well, he's gotta work.
We're in a recession.
Peanut, you might be too
young to understand this.
It's not about the recession.
Ever since Billy turned 16,
he's been mad different.
Like, he drops out of school,
all of a sudden he's mister working man.
Too mature for us.
I think he still likes us
cause he said he's gonna let me
use his wheels when I'm 5ft tall.
Peanut, no offense,
you're never gonna be 5ft tall.
You know, his swagway is really cool.
Obviously, it's really cool.
[engine noises]
Moolah, moolah, moolah.
Christmas is behind us
and Q1 is around the corner.
With a new cycle
there's always an energy shift.
And that means one thing.
More money.
Everything has a vibration,
including money.
And I can show you how to channel
those vibrations in the beautiful dollars.
Let's set goals.
Let's talk rezzies.
Leave a comment.
What are your New Year's resolutions?
[Upbeat, hopeful music]
[billy whizzes past]
[Intense, upbeat music kicks in]
[chickens clucking] Oh, good
morning, Ruth.
Looking sprightly.
Hello, Boris.
Staying out of trouble, I hope?
Oh, Patricia.
You get a good night's sleep?
Well, don't just stand there.
Grubster delivery.
Casahuevos.
I'm living in a casahuevos.
I've got more huevos
than casa at this point.
Look around you. Okay.
So is this your food?
Is this 87 Coral Drive?
Oh, here we go again.
I've written to the city
about this for years.
There are four 87 Coral Drives.
Mine was first,
not that anyone asked.
The app sent me to this one.
I'm gonna mark the order as delivered.
Will you take the food?
[phone buzzes] Oh, I never get delivery.
I will take the food for compost if you
take some of these eggs off my hands.
Those aren't eggs.
I think they're from the mini
golf place up the street.
[golf club swings] Hmm.
Whatever they are, they're all yours.
I don't golf.
I don't care if you golf.
Who asked?
People come around here and wanna
tell you their whole life story.
[phone buzzes] Ma'am, what's the best way
to get back to civilization?
There's a trail down at the end
of the road that pops onto the highway.
It's tricky, though.
One wrong move and you'll be
up to your neck in swamp goo.
That's fine.
I don't make wrong moves.
Thanks for grubbing with Grubster.
Have a Grubby day.
[Relaxing bell tones]
Funny little man.
Reminds me of you, Boris.
Very focused.
But is all that focus... Oh!
Oh, hey! No! [alien whimpering]
Oh, it's too early in the day for this.
Shoo!
Shoo!
[birds chirping]
[intercom] You lost? [Billy] No.
I've got food here for Rosario Dolphin.
[phone buzzes] Sorry, it's grub.
Rosie.
All right.
She's in greenhouse four.
Follow the signs.
[gate opening]
Ugh. That smells disgusting.
[Dreamy, mid-tempo pop song begins]
Tastes like heaven.
Tastes like honey.
Tastes like piles, piles, piles
of money.
Time going by
things, grow and die.
Day after Christmas.
My winter citrus.
Tastes like heaven.
Tastes like honey.
Taste like piles, piles, piles of money.
Hey, Mike, will you
hand me a watering can?
Oh, you're not Mike.
I'm filling in.
Mike fell into a ditch and broke his legs.
Oh, my God.
What ditch?
I do not know why I said that.
I'm supposed to give this
food to Rosario Dolphin.
Word.
That's me. [chewing]
I'm going by Rozebud now, with a Z.
[Twinkle]
Okay. Rozebud.
We had math class together.
I was a freshman and you were a senior.
Oh, you grew your hair out.
You're um... Billy 5000.
The human caterpillar.
The human calculator.
Yeah, right.
Cool wheels.
You're a junior now?
What's the square root of 218?
Well, actually, I dropped out recently.
Do you remember my sister Gail?
I'm actually living in her garage.
But to answer your question, it's
14.7648141805...
It just keeps going.
I'm down with it.
Reject the educational hierarchy.
That's what I did.
Came here straight out of high school.
Okay, but isn't your mom Doctor Dolphin?
Don't remind me.
I'm next in line to be "Doctor Dolphin".
Yeah.
So how does that... reject...
I'm gonna break the cycle.
Taking this place down from the
inside by not doing any work.
[insects buzzing]
I got the perfect setup here.
The grounds are so big,
nobody can keep track of me.
I try to look busy in front
of my supervisor, like three times a day.
Rest of the time I'm
communing with nature.
Eating fruit.
You like fruit, 5000?
Yeah, some fruits.
I'm not supposed to show anyone this.
Come on.
[gate opens]
[electrical humming]
This is the experimental wing.
My mom is obsessed
with these new cultivars.
Hybrids.
Honestly, okay.
She's kind of a genius.
Lunar Satsuma.
It grows in soil from a crushed up
moon rock she paid half a million
dollars for in the nineties.
Grapefruit orange combo.
It's designed for cocktails.
Cube tangerine.
I think it's easier to ship these.
This one's my favorite.
Woah.
It looks like mold, but look closer.
Each of these little blue dots is its own
special miniature fruit
that can only grow on a host lemon.
Oh.
[lights clicking on]
Rosie?
T bone!
I was looking for you.
No you weren't.
The doctor is expecting you.
We are on track to be five minutes late.
But I can minimize the damage.
[machines beeping]
Excuse me.
Out of my way.
Ah, excuse me.
I'm sorry to bother you. Doctor.
But we're ready. Doctor.
[Ominous music]
[heavy gates opening]
Hello team.
As you know,
my daughter has been studying cultivation.
Today she will demonstrate her knowledge.
I only wish I could be there in person
but well, you understand.
Rosario. Let's begin.
Mom. It's not Rosario anymore.
It's Rozebud.
This again?
We'll have to print a new ID tag.
Make sure they get the z.
We'll discuss later.
There are 100 oranges in front of you.
Your task is to select
the best one for propagation.
Uhhh.
Laser focus.
Remember the four s's. Okay?
Okay. Looking for shape.
Size.
Saturation, and...
Uh... s...
Skin. Don't help her!
I knew that, skin.
Um.
This one?
Are you telling me or are you asking me?
Uh.
I'm telling you?
In that case, you are lying.
Credit where it's due
this is one of the better oranges
in the batch.
Looks like an 85 out of 100.
Yet.
Yet from this sample size,
we would expect to find a better specimen.
What is that?
It's throwing off my sensors.
It's onion rings.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I've been working all morning.
I needed grub.
The protocol, dear.
Outside contaminants. Please take it to
the break room.
We are done here.
[alert] Message from PYL logistics
regarding shipment delays.
Can you turn that off, please?
A promising performance, doctor.
T bone, don't sugarcoat it.
She has no interest
in taking over the company.
She was such a promising child.
So obedient. What went wrong?
I can crunch the numbers on that.
Oh, when I was her age, I had
already released a chart topping hit.
Do you remember?
Who could forget the cran-
grapefruit cocktail?
You had a knack for it doctor.
The family gift.
And mind you, this was at a time when
hybrids were completely out of fashion.
Over 20 million cartons sold.
[entrancing, focused music]
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[machines beeping]
There it is.
Oh.
[assistants] Size: 44 cm.
Shape: 97% topographic uniformity.
Saturation: nearly full.
Skin: no visible defects.
Doc, that's, uh...
A 95.
Run the numbers yourself,
but I'm sure of it.
Let's propagate.
[light clapping]
Leave me alone with this
specimen.
Juice the rest.
[Upbeat electronic waltz music]
[music ends]
[skateboard rolling]
We need a good snag.
Yeah it's been a while.
Okay, this one.
Like we practiced.
[car approaching]
[horn honking]
Ohh. Aaaaah!
Owww!
Oh, God. I didn't see you.
Are you okay?
So much pain.
Mommy, did you kill somebody?
Miss? Lady? Help me.
I'm calling an ambulance.
Don't move.
No, don't call an ambulance.
I think I'll be okay if you
buy us a twelve pack of beer.
Oh my God, you little asshole.
Something drinkable?
Uh, a six pack would be fine.
Esta todo bien seora?
That lady ran over my friend.
I got the whole thing on tape.
Oh, this place is a zoo.
I'll be getting my gas
elsewhere from now on.
These cretins
should be in school.
Yeah, that's your opinion.
Mommy I have to pee.
Ay no, chicos no me den problem as.
Vyanse.
This curb is public property.
We have human rights.
Ustedes creen que me import a?
Pues no. Saben cual es mi fantasia?
Que un camin venga
se estrelle contra la gasolinera
explote, los mate a todos
me derrita la Cara
y me den seis meses de vacacin pagada.
Vyanse.
Okay, man, chill. It's all good.
We have places to be.
We do?
Everyone's on cop mode these days.
Like, oh, don't hang
out at the gas station.
Don't hang out at the beach.
Okay?
What else is there?
I used to think that gas
station guy was cool.
Can you believe that?
[horn honking]
Go around.
[Cars crash]
[insects buzzing]
Why do they drain the pools?
It's warm enough.
It is not. I'm freezing.
Something's wrong with you.
They should study you.
Peanut, did you get a good haul from
the gas station
while we distracted the guy?
Buckle up, boys.
I got
straws and napkins.
The straws and napkins are free.
Did I mention
ketchup packets?
That's not a snag.
I know.
I couldn't do it.
What if God saw me?
God doesn't watch gas stations.
Hmm.
Oh, that reminds me.
Two snags today.
First, I got all these golf balls,
and check this out.
Audacious lick from the Dolphin grow labs.
Experimental lemon. Not on the market.
What? Yowza.
How much do you think that's worth?
I have no idea.
Priceless?
No such thing as priceless.
We need a good appraiser.
You got balls, Billy.
I've made some good snags,
but I wouldn't steal from Doctor Dolphin.
Why not?
You don't know the legend
of Doctor Dolphin?
[Eerie, ghostly music]
So, everyone knows.
In the 1960s, they were doing
experiments at Cape Carniveral. For NASA.
They were studying dolphins
for their intelligence.
And things got really twisted.
They spent tons of taxpayer dollars
to create this half human,
half dolphin hybrid.
It was only 4ft tall,
so it was perfect to operate
the little space capsule.
And it was really smart.
Too smart.
It rebelled against NASA
and escaped into the swamps.
After a while, they assumed it
didn't survive, but it came back.
As a businesswoman.
She built the juice company
from the ground up with her savvy mind.
And according to the legend,
that dolphin is still there,
living underneath
the orange juice factory.
[Eerie music stops]
That's not true, is it?
I think you're getting it confused
with how they invented Gatorade.
Uh, no.
Nobody invented Gatorade.
It's a liquid, like milk.
Nobody invented milk.
Hmm.
Um, Billy, he's doing it again.
[snoring]
Milk.
My g.
When's the last time you went to sleep?
Sleep is for rich people.
Am I rich?
Not yet.
Don't tell anyone about this, okay?
I'm on a really good hustle.
I busted Grubster.
[Upbeat music]
So drivers are paid in G points.
They do that so it's harder to keep track
of how much money you're making.
When you want to get paid out
first you have to exchange
your G points for cash.
But look at this, it doesn't
have to be US dollars.
If you scroll down,
you can pick up the Czech Koruna.
And then this is where someone messed up.
When it transfers over,
it gives you the Danish Krona.
Krona for Koruna.
Anyone can make that mistake.
And the exchange rate
between those two is
7.2 to 1.
So if I do $100 of deliveries,
I can get $720 bucks
bro, how did you figure this out?
[Music stops] I just told you.
[Yawn]
I have to make as many deliveries as I
can before someone on Grubster finds out.
Cause when they patch that glitch...
[night insects chirping loudly]
[Soft keyboard arpeggios]
Florida at night.
It gets cooler when they turn out
all the lights.
Florida sometimes,
it just feels like this place
wants me to die.
[Fast drums kick in]
Where am I going?
I just turned sixteen.
I know everything.
I just need 5 G's.
I just need some sleep.
[Song fades out]
[morning birds chirping]
Hmm.
[basketball bouncing]
Huh?
Excuse me.
Oh, Miss Sharon.
Good morning.
Merry Christmas.
Would be a lot merrier if
my detached garage wasn't desecrated.
You wouldn't happen to know
anything about that, would you?
Shhh.
Maybe it showed up by itself?
Act of G-o-d type thing.
Whoever is responsible for this
transgression will be dealt with,
if not by the big man himself,
then by local authorities.
Out of curiosity, this is
not an admission of guilt,
but what is the big man's
punishment for tagging up a garage?
Well, I'd have to check the book.
Mm hmm.
Yep, just what I thought.
Petty vandalism, third
trapezoid of damnation.
You could get five or 600
years of hellfire per letter.
Wow. That could really add up.
You've had your fun.
Judgment day is not far off.
Get right while you still can.
No one ever got to heaven
on an electric vehicle.
Sleeping beauty.
Welcome to the waking world.
You slept for two days.
We thought you were dead.
Hi, Gail.
Can I have a coffee?
Coffee?
Since when?
It's his thing now.
I'll have one too.
Double expresso.
How was your Christmas?
Bloody, as usual.
You should see it, Billy.
It's head trauma all day, every day.
Old people slipping in the shower,
car accidents.
But most of all, boys your age
riding around with no helmet.
I know you don't listen to me ever,
but I don't like you doing these
deliveries, especially at night.
Okay.
You think I'm exaggerating?
Come by the ER.
See for yourself.
[Splat] Ooh.
I'm good.
Oh, did you see
the envelope on the fridge?
Mom sent you a 100 bucks.
Tell her she doesn't have to do that.
I'm making my own money now.
Why don't you tell her yourself?
When's the last time you talked to her?
Six months ago.
8 days, 16 hours, 20 minutes.
Yeah, I don't like when you do that.
It's freaky.
Save it for calculus.
Wait, but he doesn't...
You're right.
You're right, you're right.
Why don't you keep that money, Gale?
You buy me so much food and stuff.
Uh uh.
You're gonna focus on school.
You're gonna get a scholarship.
You're gonna get a good job, and then
you can pay me back
when you're rich.
[coffee machine beeping]
Bye, losers.
I'll be home super late.
Wash your hands if you've
been touching money.
So when are you gonna tell
Gail you dropped out of school?
Are you kidding?
She would go berserkums.
I have to get my finances
sorted out first.
If I save up $5,000
I can put down a deposit in my own place
and pay her back for letting me live here.
She has nothing to freak out about.
I think she's still gonna find
something to freak out about.
Okay.
Moolah, moolah, moolah.
Are you practicing the moolah mantra?
I want you to take that goal number of
yours and repeat it three times in a row.
Three times a day.
Trust me, things will start happening.
A new side hustle will appear
and triple your income.
It could be flipping houses,
breeding puppies.
I don't know.
The universe can be so generous.
[Upbeat electronic song begins]
Junk removal.
What a business.
Look how tall that heap of trash is.
Every house makes so much garbage.
Junk removal
maybe that's where all the cash is.
Picking up orders.
Dropping off dinners.
90 degrees.
Florida winters.
Too hot.
Too sweaty.
Everything on me feels so heavy.
Eyelids, legs and belly.
Why do I always feel so heavy?
[Song ends abruptly]
Oh, it's these stupid golf balls.
[golf balls being thrown]
[happy alien cooing sounds]
[Intense, chaotic jazz drums]
What is that?
Hi, don't dump golf
balls on the road, please.
[Chaotic jazz drumming continues]
Have a Grubby day.
[ocean waves lapping]
Am I in the right place?
Do you have spaghetti?
Then you're in the right place.
Apparently, guy orders spaghetti
from every place in town.
I've already been here twice this morning.
My theory, he's a traveling food critic.
Specifically,
a spaghetti critic, good tipper.
I love a spaghetti.
I used to think I loved spaghetti
more than anyone else in the world.
Now with this guy on the scene,
I'm not so sure anymore.
After he tried five or six spaghettis
in one day, they would all taste the same.
Now, fettuccine, on the other hand.
Cool wheels.
Have a grubby day.
$5,000.
[unzipping backpack]
Okay.
What?
What is this?
[biting]
Ow. No.
[alien cooing unintelligibly]
Yeah, yeah, that's better.
What is.
Are you like a little donut?
Doh
Nut
That's funny.
Do nut.
Do. Hi.
Donut, donut, donut.
[shower running]
[thud]
[old lady] oof!
[shower continues running]
[knocking]
Hello?
Grubster pickup.
Two monster cheese dogs and a shake,
it's gonna be a minute.
Making them fresh.
Fine.
[cars passing by]
Usually around this time of year,
we get no traffic.
What with tourism season being over.
Conventional wisdom would be such to shut
the place down from November to February
but, hey, I live in the dog
I'm here all day as is.
Why not keep it open,
even if it's just for Byron?
Who's Byron?
You're picking up for Byron, right?
He orders from me all the time.
Far as I know, he's never come
here in person and seen the dog.
Isn't that kind of odd?
That's really none of my business.
Maybe so, but, I mean, let's face it,
everybody wants to see the dog.
The food is not the point.
People want to take a picture
or they need to use the restroom.
Can I be straight up with you?
The hot dogs we sell here, they're good.
And I'm not just saying that out
of a point of personal pride.
I'm saying it because I'm a hot dog guy
and I've eaten quite a few in my day.
This might well be the best in town.
And no one seems to care.
Except Byron?
Maybe Byron's the only one in this
town with his head on straight.
And the rest of us are all too
blinded by the spectacle,
too focused on the big
dog to care about our own
little dogs.
How long is this
conversation gonna go on for?
I don't mean to be rude.
I'm just wondering.
Point taken.
I hear you loud and clear, my man.
Loud and clear.
Give my regards to Byron.
I'm actually not allowed
to give any regards.
Grubster policy.
Have a Grubby day.
Where I come from,
a man picks up his own dogs.
[Inspirational, fuzzy
dream pop song begins]
One thing I don't mind
is running errands all the time.
Being outside getting tan
easy way to make five grand.
I always got something to do,
I'm never going back to school.
[Song fades out]
Hot dog man?
Hot dog man.
Chew those up for me.
What?
Chew up the hot dogs.
Make things a little easier for me.
I hate chewing.
I can't do that.
It's a health concern.
Oh, no.
I have you people do this all the time.
I'll give you a $10 cash tip.
Let's not do this all day.
I'm getting hungry.
$20, final offer.
And put them in the basket so I
don't have to come down there.
$5,000.
[chewing]
Yeah. Nice.
[Sharon] It's here!
I sawn it!
Lock your doors,
repent for your sins!
The worm from the center of the earth
has arrived to devour us!
They predicted this!
If you take a look at revelations,
it's all there.
It's spelled out in plain English!
Yo, Sharon's gone totally bonkers.
Imagine if you could draw like that.
Like, if you were really good at drawing,
you could draw a girl with huge boobs
and then you could look
at it anytime you wanted.
Yeah, but Sharon would never draw boobs.
She would only draw, hold up.
Is that the freaking
monster we saw at the beach?
Uh, no, probably not.
It's a crazy drawing.
Let's not look at it anymore.
You didn't even see the monster.
You were all the way
on the other side of the beach.
I saw it.
I got right up close to it.
We gotta go back.
I bet we could find it
and get on the news.
[waves crashing]
What's our plan here?
Do you gotta have your shirt off, man?
Um, yeah, it's the beach.
No shirt, no shoes.
No problem.
But guess where I read that?
A shirt.
I found something!
Oh, it's Billy.
I thought the point of dropping out
is you don't have to read anymore.
You know, the kid's a freak.
Obsessive.
He gets hopped up on something and becomes
an expert and then it's been two weeks
and he hasn't brushed his
damn teeth the whole time.
[alien cooing]
Oh, jeez.
How'd you get over here?
Alright, you gotta go back to where
you came from first thing tomorrow.
[Twinkling bell arpeggios]
[beat box] This is feeling a little bogus.
Can we come back in the morning?
[Freckles] It's gonna be too late by then.
Sharon's probably already
talking to the CIA.
[Peanut] Ew, something touched my foot.
Oh, it was seaweed.
Is that good?
Is that something?
Nah, I got nothing.
[Music fades out very slowly]
[knocking] Hello?
Is the fussy old lady here?
I was here last week with Grubster.
I have some questions.
The golf balls you give me are defective.
[running water]
Everything okay in there?
I don't want to intrude.
I'm just gonna set this bag
down and I'm gonna go on my way.
Oh.
[ambulance siren]
The old slippy trippy special.
That's gotta be the third one this week.
Like, ever heard of a bathmat?
Can we get something to eat after this?
Yes, I'm starving.
What was that sandwich
place we went to last week?
You read my mind, friend.
I've been thinking about a Reuben all day.
All right, little man,
we're all done here.
Thanks for calling it in.
Don't steal anything on the way out.
Wink, wink.
[Ambulance door slamming]
[Ambulance driving off]
Okay. Donut.
Don't eat that.
[chomp]
[rain hitting ground]
[phone buzzing]
Okay, fine.
I'll take a little break.
Five minutes.
Till the rain passes.
Are you all good?
All good.
[Slow, mournful song begins]
87 Coral Drive.
You slipped and fell,
you're not alive.
That's all fine
you had a good amount of time.
87
I hope they have chickens in heaven.
[Sad violin solo]
[music ends]
When the old man died, he left me
his golf course under one condition.
That he be buried under the 18th hole.
I had some reservations.
The grave site wasn't exactly
on theme for a Cretaceous Holes.
Nevertheless, I made it work.
That's what running
a business is all about.
Adapting.
Delivery for Herschel Cretaceous.
That's me.
My weekly BLT.
Cool wheels.
Thank you.
Now you give me compliment.
Uh hmm.
I got nothing.
Sorry.
Have a Grubby day.
A working lunch before the afternoon rush.
It's what the old man would have wanted.
[alien rustling]
[chewing]
$5,000, $5,000, $5,000.
$5,000.
[digital error noises]
Huh?
Hi!
Bahhh bahh! What?
Bahhhh!
Bahh bah bah! Bah bah ba-bah!
Ughh.
[bathroom ambience]
[Sad electronic music]
Time to go.
Time to flush you down.
You never know,
Maybe I'll see you around.
Down the drain.
People do this every day.
Down the drain.
It's okay to walk away.
[song ends]
[intercom] Hello?
Can you hear me?
This is private property.
Hello?
Do something if you can hear me.
[rozebud humming]
Rozebud.
You kind of turned your head a little.
Was that a?
Are you responding to my voice?
All right, that was a close call.
For you.
Adios.
Oh, the man himself,
gracing us with his presence.
What up, fellas?
We're going down to the train tracks,
do a little train track stuff.
You in?
Yeah, I could do train tracks.
It's been a while.
Oh, my God.
Dude, you smell like a pet store.
He's right.
I can smell you from here.
I could smell you from down the road.
When's the last time
you took a shower, dog?
Thanksgiving?
Yeah, I don't know.
Haven't had the time.
I'm living for the hustle.
[bike crashes]
[shower running]
[Billy humming]
Ooo-ee!
Jesus!
Yo, Billy, what shirt are you gonna wear?
Cause I wanna wear
I'm with stupid, but I don't
want us to wear the same thing.
Look stupid at the tracks.
Yeah, listen, I'm doing
some leave in conditioner.
It's gonna take a second,
so just go ahead.
I'll meet you guys there.
Wanna hear my rap?
Peanut get out of here!
Go away.
What did I do?
You can't walk in on a
shower without knocking.
Give me some privacy.
Oh, I don't care if you're naked.
It's very all naturale.
Hiii.
Hiii.
Okay.
Are you, like.
Do you, do you think I'm your mom?
Come here.
[Evening crickets chirping]
No one comes in here.
Don't make a fuss while I'm gone
and I'll bring you back some food.
[Gail] What you doing back there, bud?
[Billy] Nothing.
Science project.
Don't look at it.
It'll burn your eyes out.
[Gail] Okay.
Wear sunscreen.
[Peanut] Can I wear sunscreen?
[Gail] It never hurts.
[Ominous music]
Hmm.
Unexpected but promising.
[Laboratory equipment whirring]
9 minutes, 15 seconds.
Hi.
The R&D tower is perfectly
centered within the campus.
Why do you think that is?
Because it's in the middle.
Because it is the brain of the entire
Dolphin Groves' nervous system.
It is tactical.
No other spot on the compound is
more than a 7 minute walk away.
So I have to wonder, where were you?
What task had you so far flung that it
took you 9 minutes,
15 seconds to get here, dear?
Okay, point taken.
I'll stay late and make up the minutes.
I don't want your minutes.
I want my minutes.
I'm giving myself a headache.
T bone, pull the footage.
This delivery boy,
he was here twice this week?
Yes, he brought in some Grubster.
Bad attitude.
And as per security protocol.
Did anyone get his name?
Mmmm.
Rosario. What can you tell me?
You chatted with him
for almost 3 minutes.
Is he a peer of yours?
An old friend from school?
One of your radical layabout comrades?
Is he selling you drugs?
[Rozebud humming]
Not helpful, dear.
Oh, are you talking to me?
Because you kept saying Rosario.
Roooozebud.
Who is he?
I don't know.
[Ominous music]
Track him down.
Whatever it takes.
He has something that belongs to me.
[Cheerful holiday hold music]
Thank you for your patience. You're
on the road with Grubster partner support.
This is Nan.
How can I help you today?
Hi, Nan.
I'm trying to cash out
and some of my money's missing.
Okay, I can absolutely take
a look at that for you.
Let me just pull up your
account information.
Name? First name is Billy.
Last name is 5000.
Username is Billy5000.
Okay, I see what happened here.
I can adjust this right now.
Great.
Thank you.
Oh, don't say thank you just yet.
You might not like this.
So you never really had those $3,000
it was a technical error with the app.
I'm so sorry about that, sweetie.
Can you just confirm to me that you're
seeing the correct balance?
$394.28
Yeah, that's what it says,
but the money was there in my account.
If Grubster made a mistake,
shouldn't they be on the hook of that?
We're transferring you
to another Grubster associate.
Due to holiday congestion,
the wait times may be longer than usual.
I was already on hold for an hour.
[Holiday hold music resumes]
Hey, Rozebud.
Thanks for meeting me.
So I have two pancake burger combos.
Large orange juice and styrofoam
with no ice. Syrup on the side.
Oh, you already ordered?
Kind of.
It was just sitting on the counter.
Every place does that now for deliveries.
You can take the food
and when the real delivery person comes
they just make it again.
No one cares.
That's really radical.
Exploit the oversights
in a dehumanized system.
Very cool way to reallocate
material goods.
If you don't want the pancake burger,
there's probably something else.
I'll try it.
It's like pancakes instead of a bun.
I think it's pancakes instead of lettuce
and maple syrup instead of cheese.
It's pretty good.
There's an egg.
Not where you'd think an egg would be.
To be honest, I was
super surprised when you texted.
I thought you were gay.
Oh.
Okay.
The reason I asked you here
is I need a small favor.
You think I'm hot though, right?
Not that I care.
That's kind of a separate conversation.
Can you help me get a job?
I can peel oranges.
Um, I don't know.
I could drive a golf cart.
You know they asked me about you.
They have all this security footage.
They were asking me if
I knew who you were.
I didn't narc.
What's the deal? You stole something?
Oh, valid.
Yeah, you're gonna walk
right in and get a job.
Dude, you're hilarious.
No, I like that you have this, like,
nihilistic worldview, like,
operating within these capitalist
structures but rejecting
them at the same time.
That's my plan at Dolphin.
Dismantle it from the inside.
How are you gonna do that?
You gotta read this.
It lays out the whole playbook.
Are you into freak jazz?
Freak jazz?
I don't know.
If you were into freak jazz
you would know.
[Freak jazz plays in the background]
[Billy reading to himself] Chapter one.
An insurmountable equilibrium.
Capitalist dichotomies exist everywhere,
even and especially in nature.
To understand differential stratification,
one need look no further than
the ground beneath one's feet.
Consider the common garden snail.
The self containment of the snail,
with its home built into its body makes it
an ideal worker in an
individualistic society.
In deep contrast, consider the ant.
Each ant is little more than a millionth
of the greater social unit, the colony.
Resultantly, the life of each
ant is worth precious little.
Under a magnifying glass,
the beauty of a snail's spiral
shell is enhanced and appreciated.
Under the very same magnifying
glass, an ant is fried.
It probably goes without saying
that in this metaphor,
the magnifying glass is market forces
the ant colony is the supply chain,
and the snails are economic theorists.
[Freak jazz ends]
Hiii.
Are you doing okay?
You're hungry?
You didn't eat your sandwich.
Okay, that's fine.
Um, what about these
chicken fingers? Mmm.
Fries?
[chewing]
No, no, no. That's the box.
Uh, you're really going for it.
Bro!
Why did you do that?
No, it's okay.
It's okay.
[beat boxing]
Okay Freckles, rap at us.
The theme is... Breakfast at night.
Ha ha!
Ha.
Okay!
Ha ha.
No, ugh.
Beatbox. [beat boxing stops]
There's something I gotta
tell you. All you guys.
I'm out of the rap game. What?
I'm transferring over
to sensitive ballads.
Huh?
You're such a good rapper.
Yeah, that's kind of the problem.
I feel like I've done all there is
to do in the world of hip hop.
Um, do you still want me to beat box?
It's not very sensitive.
Do you want to shake this can of beans?
[guitar tuning]
[Unskilled folk music begins]
Eggs again.
I think I'll have eggs again.
There's so many different
ways to have eggs.
You could have a
different way every day.
Fried or scrambled, whatever your angle.
Hollandaise, deviled eggs, mayonnaise
all from the same egg.
Incredible.
Edible egg.
Crack it and it runs down your leg.
[Billy] What's your deal?
Why are you doing that?
What are you doing?
What do you want?
We all start as eggs.
Feed me.
Feed me.
Feed me. Feed me.
Feed me an egg.
[song stops] Okay Beatbox, we're done.
[beat box] Brrrrap!
Ohhh!
As estaba cuando yo vine seor.
En ruin as.
The course.
My father's beautiful course.
It hasn't even been six
months since we renovated.
Shelly, who did this to you?
Local teens?
Mire seor,
yo se un poquito de huellas.
Mire la form a que tienen.
Y mire las mordidas.
Esto no fue hecho por adolescentes.
Esto aqui lo hizo un, como le
llaman a eso? Como se dice?
Un opposum.
I'm so sorry, Shelley.
After all these trillions of years,
the cycle of nature continues.
[Medieval video game music]
Foolish traveler, ha ha ha,
your journey has been in vain.
You will never claim
the riches of the goblin's cave.
Go between his legs!
I was gonna.
The amulet! Press B!
Get the amulet!
I can't focus when you're yelling at me.
Do you guys see my lemon anywhere?
No.
What lemon?
Uh, the snag from Doctor Dolphin's.
The experimental spotty lemon.
Oh, yeah.
No.
He probably ate it and forgot about it.
Or Gail threw it away
because it was moldy.
She never throws anything away.
Where's Peanut?
Let's just say
he's taking a bathroom break.
[outdoor ambience]
[muffled] Hello?
Does anyone know how
long I've been in here?
I gotcha. I gotcha.
Blah!
It kinda stinks in there,
but I was pretty much used to it.
This is gross.
Peanut you can't let those guys
push you around like that.
Dude, you ruined it!
He needs to marinate
for another 45 minutes.
Am I still initiated?
You're barely medium rare.
You guys are pricks.
Like, seriously, grow up. Whoa.
Where is this coming from?
Toilet time is a rite of passage.
Don't you remember when
we did toilet time?
Yeah, you almost died.
It's true.
Toilet time changed you.
This is why I don't hang
out with you guys anymore.
This is really how you want
to spend your whole life?
Bumming around forever?
There's cash money to be made out there.
Okay, thank you so much for the lecture.
I had no idea we had a sucky life.
I never would have figured that out.
Good thing we've got the world's
smartest pizza boy here.
I'm not a pizza boy!
Are you a boy?
Do you deliver pizzas?
[Spitting]
Find my lemon!
Wicka wicka errr.
Are you mad at me?
Moolah, moolah, moolah.
They just drew the mega ball.
Winning number is 5172953 and 67.
Notice something strange?
All prime numbers.
It's just like I've been saying.
The secret to getting rich is numbers.
More numbers, more money.
I'm always saying this, you can't win
if you don't buy a ticket.
Another loser? Yep.
Prize pot is 100 million.
Imagine. It's probably for the best.
After taxes, you'd only
end up with 50 million.
And a lot of lottery winners end
up suicidal or even bankrupt.
So why'd you buy the ticket?
Um.
The fantasy, I guess.
I like thinking about
what I do with the money.
I wouldn't let anyone know
right away, of course.
But one day I'd showed up to work
and there'd be nothing here.
Empty field.
Because I bought the whole company.
And in the middle of the night,
I had everything bulldozed.
I'd bulldoze the R&D, building,
the bottling plant, even this greenhouse.
But I'd leave all the trees
and there would be a little
sign that said, Free oranges.
Take as many as you want.
Wait I love that.
From the time I got the ticket up until
now, I was just renting that fantasy.
That's really what you pay for.
Is this HR? The gate was open.
No tours today.
I'm here about a grounds keeping job.
[industrial humming noises]
[Walkie talkie beeps]
Eh-hem. We're ready, doctor.
[mechanical transformation sounds]
Oh.
Billy 5000.
Do you know why you're here?
Uh yes, I am self motivated,
I thrive in challenging environments.
Hmm. What else?
Right. Of course.
I'm a straight shooter
and a quick learner.
And I love watering cans and hoses.
And what about this?
No one can prove anything.
I know my rights.
That could be anyone.
A lot of people look like that.
Okay, so what happened was
the lemon fell into my bag.
Enough with the lemon.
I don't care.
Oh, wait.
What do you want?
What do I want?
I want to tell you a story.
[Spooky music]
Decades ago, my mother
was alone in the swamp.
Alone and afraid.
That's when she found them.
Or rather, they found her.
My mother called them angels
but they didn't come from heaven.
They came from the ground.
They gave her a very special gift.
A perfect orange.
The one she used to found this company.
The creatures left,
but they promised to return.
I know the angels are back.
I also know you have one of them.
It belongs to me.
To you?
This specimen might be an endearing pet,
but it has great industrial potential.
These creatures emit a special radiation.
One that makes fruits
grow bigger, rounder.
All due respect, doctor,
don't bother explaining.
He doesn't even know the four s's.
Size, shape, saturation, skin.
Yeah, they teach that in kindergarten.
You're a very smart kid.
And you lie.
You have a promising future.
This can go two ways.
I can press charges for my stolen lemon.
You'll be tried as an adult due
to the severity of the crime.
Or you can bring me the specimen.
In exchange, I'll name
a flavor of juice after you.
I think we both know this
is bigger than juice.
Oh, young people.
Nothing's ever easy.
A cash payment for your little pet.
$5,000.
My best and final offer.
Hmm.
It's interesting.
I'll think it over.
Bring the creature in as soon as possible.
Don't talk to any other juicers.
[mechanical ramp lifts up]
[insects buzzing]
So she doesn't care about the lemon at all
and now she's
offering you a fat payout?
Pretty lucky.
Sort of, if you think about it.
It's a classic ulc.
What's that?
Oh, you know,
an undistributed leverage curve.
Like as a human being,
I'm worthless to Doctor Dolphin.
Kind of a nuisance.
As a worker, I have marginal utility,
but I'm more or less replaceable.
As the holder of a productive asset,
I have some negotiating power for once.
I learned about it from
the book that you gave me.
To be straight up with you,
I did not finish that book.
But I got the gist.
You learn about the curve on page 4.
It goes without saying, but you
obviously can't take the money.
The cost to your integrity is too high.
Cost to my integrity?
You've got a huge family
fortune no matter what you do.
For me, it's a different situation.
No, it's not.
Okay, hypothetical.
A stranger wants to pay you to chew
up a hot dog while they watch.
How much would that cost?
I wouldn't do that.
I'm a vegetarian.
I got an idea.
Let's read your palm.
[Romantic background music] Hmmm.
Yeah.
See this?
It's your money line.
It says you're gonna be rich.
Your life line is fractured.
A big change is coming up.
And then here's your love line.
It's wiggly.
You have romance in your immediate future.
How did you get all of that
from looking at my hand?
I made it up.
Stupid ass.
Billy, there's something
I want you to do for me.
Yeah?
Will you
introduce me to your
friend with the freckles?
I think I'm in love with him.
[cars passing by]
[knocking] Grubster delivery.
Taste of Italy for-
I got a spaghetti here.
Are you the spaghetti critic?
[phone buzzing]
It's not gonna fit.
All right, you're all set.
Cash tip is appreciated.
Have a Grubby day.
[coins landing]
[air conditioner humming]
[electronic sci-fi sounds]
[Sentimental song begins]
[Song ends]
[chewing]
[sci-fi beeps]
[cosmic explosion]
How's the science project loser?
I'm wrapping it up.
[bubbles popping]
Gail, I think I'm about
to get my hands on some money.
I'm gonna pay you back for everything.
I know, that big brain is our meal ticket.
That's why I kept you around.
But what if I didn't have a big brain?
Uh, you'd have to bring
something else to the table.
Probably compassion or positive energy.
You wouldn't be allowed
to be so off putting.
You're turning out okay.
I'm proud of you.
[phone buzzes] Oh. Huh.
It's mom.
Oh wow? She reached out.
That's a good sign.
She ordered a pizza.
A pizza?
Oh, boy.
[Heavy rock music]
[knocking]
[muffled] Who is that?
It's Billy.
Huh?
It's Billy.
I'm working here for Grubster.
I have your delivery.
What?
Pizza.
Thank you, sweetie pie.
[muffled male voice] Who was it?
Pizza boy.
[Sad, downtempo music]
$5,000.
$5,000.
[Music becomes upbeat]
Hey, Donut.
I changed my mind.
I don't know if you're really even
aware of what's going on.
But I'm not going to sell
you to Doctor Dolphin.
I really need the money, but I think we
can figure out another way to get it.
I'm gonna take you back to the garage.
Then I don't really know.
We'll see what happens!
It'll just be
[music stops] Ahh!
[car approaches]
Ahhhhh! Ahhhhh!
Oh my God.
Did I hit my head?
Hit my head.
Donut, did you just, like, save my life?
Hey.
Do you guys know each other?
[Hopeful song begins]
[Song ends]
What's going on here?
[electronic downloading sounds]
Billy, I saw everything.
My sweet baby would not
have survived without you.
Oh, sure, yeah, Donut's cool.
Glad I could help.
I have to say, I'm impressed.
You'd make a great dad.
You wanna, I don't know, give this a shot?
Uh, you and me?
I know, I know.
Is it traditional?
No.
Is it what you thought
you were looking for?
Probably not.
Could we make it work?
Hey, who knows?
It would be an adjustment for sure.
We live in a cave 10,000ft
below the surface of the earth.
It's not fancy,
but for a single mom, I do alright.
This is my least favorite
part of vacation.
Having to wrangle all the kids.
[cosmic energy blast]
Is that everyone?
[splash]
[alert] Message from Billy 5000.
Not going to sell you the creature sry.
Still interested in gardening
job if its available thx.
Knock, knock.
Is this a good time
to go over some creative?
Not especially.
I was thinking we could
mix pomegranate and pomelo.
Call it pom pom.
Pom pom?
Your make or break idea is pom pom.
But we can talk about it later.
Ugh! Grahh!
[Agitated, evil music]
It's not your fault, dear.
It's not. It's not it's not.
My once in a lifetime chance
to get my hands on one of the angels
and it just slips through my fingers.
Of course it does!
What's the point?
I turned my mother's company from
a hippy dippy roadside shack
into a top three juicer.
I've patented a dozen new breeds.
And for what?
For what?
I give my life to this company.
And still we're down 4% year over year.
I can't catch a lemon licking
break to save my life!
[Music ends]
[alert] Assistance requested
on sub-basement level.
You shouldn't see me like this, dear.
Why don't you excuse yourself?
[rozebud humming]
[Mechanical elevator descending]
Hello, Mother.
[dolphin noises]
I know it doesn't look great.
[dolphin noises]
It's a temporary setback.
It's manageable.
[dolphin noises]
Mother.
Yes.
Yes, the hippy dippy roadside
shack was a poor choice of words.
You know I didn't mean it.
This company is my life and I, I-
[Dolphin noises]
Mother! Respectfully, Rosario is
not ready for a leadership role
and you haven't even
heard my new ideas for-
How can you say that?
What about the cran grapefruit cocktail?
The vitamin C morning mood booster?
The juice business ebbs and flows.
You taught me that.
Mother. We can ride this out.
[Dolphin noises]
If that's what's best for the company.
[unintelligible sobbing]
Huh.
I wonder what they talk about in there.
[Swamp draining sounds, intense wind]
A new life awaits, handsome.
I know it's a big choice.
Experience the natural
beauty of a new world.
Build a relationship,
watch these kids grow up.
Or stay here, in Florida. Till you die.
I have to decide right now?
It's a lot to take in.
Sweetie pie,
not doing anything is still a decision.
You know where to find me.
Smooches!
I feel like we were just starting
to get used to each other.
Have a Grubby day.
[Crowd counting] Ten!
Nine!
Eight!
Seven!
Six!
Five!
Four!
Three!
Two!
One!
Happy new year!
[Auld lang syne played on guitar]
[Fireworks exploding]
[Music stops abruptly]
Moolah moolah moolah!
We are a week into the year.
Are you keeping your resolutions?
It's honestly so easy once you tune
yourself in to the wavelength of wealth.
And our sponsor, Grubster,
makes it even easier.
You order the food,
someone else does the rest.
You don't even have to say thank you.
Saves time.
Time is money.
And money is moolah.
Get out there and have a Grubby day.
[School bus stopping]
There he is.
Hey, Peanut. How was school?
Same old.
Is Billy here?
I took his lemon to show and tell,
but now he can have it back.
Nobody's seen him since New Year's.
Must be he finally got all his money
together and left town.
He wouldn't bail on us like that.
Good for him if he did.
He'll probably send us
a postcard, once he gets settled.
People don't send postcards
anymore, clown penis.
Then why are there mailboxes clown penis?
For coupons.
Well, I'd love to talk
about coupons all day
but I've got some business to attend to.
You guys wouldn't understand.
[Rozebud humming]
[Reprise of Rozebud's song]
Tastes like heaven.
Tastes like honey.
Tastes like piles, piles, piles.
Of money.
[Reprise of orange juice factory waltz]
