Scream Time

1
[conveyor belt whirring]
Oh!
Huh?
Huh? What?
[cackling]
[Bobby chewing] These are the best, Jen.
I promise I'll never insult
your crepes again. [gulps]
We really need to get going.
The mayor's planning something evil.
I'll explain on the way.
Hmm?
[swallows]
Uh, Aunt Jen, did you hear me?
Aunt Jenny?
Hey, Bobby, I just got a free phone.
[screams] Jenny, that phone
is brainwashing you.
You have to… [yelps] …to fight it.
Oh, it's you who should accept it, bubs.
-See the light! [grunting]
-[groaning, grunts]
Jenny, please remember who you are.
But I'm everyone. Don't you get it, Bobby?
I'm all of Ouimper.
We're all connected,
and you can be too! [grunts]
-[shouts, whimpering]
-Bobby! Bobs!
Sorry for wasting crepes!
[panting, groans]
[gasps]
[grunting, groaning]
[Jenny groans]
-[whimpering, screams]
-[grunts]
Huh?
[Jenny] Give it up, Bobby.
You'll never make it through town
without seeing a screen.
Submit!
Well, joke's on you, Mayor Mallory,
'cause I know my way around Ouimper
with my eyes closed.
At least, I hope so.
[both] Huh?
Fishmonger. Turn right.
Trout shop. Sharp left!
Ew, oyster bar! Also, this town
has a serious overfishing problem.
[screams]
This is the worst!
[groans]
-[grunting, groaning]
-[groans]
It's the mayor! It's started.
She's brainwashing everyone.
Duh! Where have you been?
Running from phone zombies!
And… [stammers] …why are you still here?
It's your mom who's behind all of this.
Double duh! That's why I'm helping.
And from the looks of this "place,"
you need all the help you can get.
No offense,
but you guys are total bargain bin heroes.
When this is over,
I'm gonna get you some serious PR help.
I interned for my mom for a summer,
so I know my stuff.
Romy, what if she's secretly
in league with the mayor?
Dude, she helped save you.
From Mordam, yeah. But what if she was
just making way for her mom?
You gotta trust people
who want to help you.
[sighs] I thought you finally
understood that.
[scoffs] W…
Doug?
[chuckling]
Ha, ha! Laugh all you want,
but this foil will protect me
from those brainwashing phones.
Does it really work?
I don't know, but I'd be crazy not to try.
Also, I'm out of tinfoil, so you kids
are gonna have to go hatless. Sorry.
-Fine with me.
-Yeah, no probs.
Phew.
Hey, my mom just started
wearing something like that.
She put it on her mayor chain. [chuckles]
I thought it was a miss fashionwise.
[gasps] Fashion smashion!
That's how she's channeling eviltanium.
We need to destroy it.
Destroy the mayor. Got it.
No! I know my mom can be turned around.
I wouldn't be so sure.
Moms are pretty good at letting you down.
Romy, tell me you don't agree
with these two idiots?
Uh… [groans]
[groans] You're all useless.
Clearly her power comes
from controlling people with the phones,
so we have to block her signal somehow.
Doug's computer!
It crashed the town's Internet that time,
remember? Would that work?
You know, it just might.
[chuckling]
Huh? [scoffs]
But this power freeze would
only last a few seconds.
So, we need to be in close proximity
to the mayor.
And who's ever heard
of a portable computer?
The stuff of science fiction, I'm afraid.
What?
And the entire computer can run
on this portable battery?
We truly live in an age of marvels.
-Whoo-hoo!
-[exclaims] Yeah!
Come on, up high!
Nope, going low. Good, got it.
[both chuckling]
-[groans]
-[Margot chuckles] Yeah!
You're jealous!
Ha! I'm finally human enough
to notice emotions.
I'm not jealous! [groans]
I just don't see why Romy suddenly thinks
Margot is worth listening to.
Let me just say one thing.
Your fears are valid. Romy could be
replacing you. Does that help?
-Um… [stammers] …no?
-[Romy chuckling]
[Margot] Whoo-hoo! Babes,
we make a great team!
[Romy] Heck yeah!
Margot and Romy for the win!
[sighs]
[groaning, grunting]
-[groans, gasps]
-[Romy gasps]
-[Margot gasps]
-They're here! Oh, brother!
How are we supposed to get
our signal disrupter passed that lot?
-Bobby!
-[whimpering]
Come join my lovely network
of like-minded friends.
Don't give it a second thought.
Because in a second,
you won't need any thoughts!
[laughing]
Mom, is that you?
Margot, get down here
and join my zombie army this instant!
Margot's one of us now.
Yeah! Besides, I'd rather be with anyone
but you right now.
-Hey, Doug. You must be hungry.
-Huh?
[zombie] How about some free cheese?
Would you like that? I have your favorite.
The one they banned from eating on buses.
Oh, Gouda.
Forget it!
You can't buy us off with cheese.
-[groaning]
-We'll never turn.
Well, in that case,
we'll take you by storm.
-Charge!
-[zombies groaning, grunting]
[grunting, groaning continues]
The door won't hold them for long.
Find the mayor, break the amulet!
I'll buy you some time.
Wait, what? You're not coming with?
[groaning]
[stammers] Us oldies would
just slow you down.
-[grunts]
-No, really!
I'll create a distraction,
and if that distraction happens to result
in getting something scrumptious,
then so be it!
We are willing to reconsider your offer.
But, uh, what other kinds
of cheeses are we talking about here?
Two wheels of extra mature cheddar,
-four of Camembert, some Gorgonzola,
-[groaning]
Parmesan, but not that American stuff,
that's not even real cheese!
They do some really nice Brie though!
Reform! Conform! Reform! Conform!
I know my mom wanted to
influence people with her policies,
but this is overkill.
-[granny] It's not so bad, dearies.
-[all gasp]
Not again.
Let's keep moving.
[panting]
Reform! Conform! Reform! Conform!
-Reform! Conform!
-[grunting, groaning]
-[Bobby screams]
-Reform!
-[shouts, groaning]
-Conform!
[grunts]
[shouts]
-[grunting, screaming]
-[groans]
[screaming]
-[groaning]
-[screaming]
Guys, a little help!
Oh, of course she's helping Margot.
Okay, Bobby, you didn't do one ab crunch
a day for nothing. [exclaims]
[chuckles] Huh?
-[groans] There's too many of them.
-[whimpers]
[whimpers, grunts]
[shouts] Oh.
Everyone, to the supermarket!
[grunts]
[grunts, groans]
[groaning]
Whoa! Mr. Fondue's geese
got zombified too? No way.
Nope, they've always been evil.
They're just having a great time.
-[banging]
-[groaning]
[Kim groaning]
-[Bobby whimpers]
-[Romy gasps]
[groans]
What's the plan, guys?
You have a plan, right?
"Things look bad,
but here's what we're gonna do." Right?
This is it. Your mom's gonna win.
We weren't enough.
But we'll go down fighting. [groans]
[whimpers]
[grunts]
-Get in!
-[all panting]
-[zombies grunting, groaning]
-[Kim groans]
Hit it, Myrrh!
-[tires screeching]
-[groaning]
-[Romy, Bobby] Whoo-hoo!
-[Margot] Doomies for the win!
She still runs like a dream.
Haven't used this baby since
the great cheese scare of '82.
Wait, you had an extra vehicle this
whole time? Why didn't you tell us sooner?
'Cause, uh… [stammers] …good things come
to people who wait for 'em to get here.
Like this matured Brie. [sniffs] Mmm.
-[groans]
-[groans] Okay.
I see why you
kept this locked up. [retches]
[all groaning, retching]
Huh? Stay back!
Wait. Are you normal?
I am. The others? Debatable.
[chuckles] But we're not zombies.
This is Redwid, the town planner.
Wait. How do we know you're not a zombie?
Hmm? Show us your phone.
Hmm. A fellow technophobe.
Welcome, buddy. It saved your mind.
So, that's why the mayor was
so obsessed with this phone factory.
[sighs] I should've seen this coming.
[groans] No. Don't blame yourself.
The mayor fooled everyone.
Even her own daughter.
But we can stop her.
You can?
She was in the control room
last I saw her, but she seems unstable.
Oh, we better hurry then.
Before the powers consume her.
That seems ominous.
Meh, you get used to it.
Hmm.
-[gasps]
-[gasps]
[gasps]
[Mallory] Look at them all.
I can bind these people to my will.
Oh, for the greater good, of course.
Greater good? You've zombified
an entire town!
[Mallory] A town that needs dragging
out of the dark ages.
Somebody had to step up.
But being a mayor is so limiting.
You have to earn votes. So tedious.
But now I have the loyalty
of a whole town.
Now I have the power to
change everything. [laughs]
Madame Mayor, please stop.
You have no idea the forces
you're playing with.
They could overwhelm you
and shatter your mind.
[scoffs, chuckles] Not these minds.
[stammers] Yes, uh, my phones allow me
to drain the brains of every user.
But sadly,
my citizens aren't the brightest.
Of course, there is one person
in this forsaken scrap
of France who is exceptional.
[chuckles]
Oh. Not her. Oh, she is rather good,
but I'm after brains, not brawn.
The true power of Ouimper is Doug.
Doug?
Who is this Doug fellow then?
He must be pretty special.
I'm really surprised I haven't heard
of him bef… Oh, boy.
[chuckles] Why are you all so surprised?
This man is a Light Keeper.
He has studied primal evil
his entire life.
[inhales sharply] His brain is my gain.
[laughs]
Hmm. Well, I'll be. Looks like today,
I'm the chosen one.
You see, daughter.
It really is hopeless to resist.
Why not join me?
I'm starting a worldwide dynasty.
I'll need someone to look after the boring
countries. Like Belgium. What do you say?
[scoffs] Sorry, Mom. I'm a Doomie now.
-Eh.
-[grunts]
Oh, disappointing, but one way or another,
I will change your mind.
[laughing]
[laughing continues]
-[laughs]
-Doug, now!
[beeping]
Oh, I got a virus! My computer's got
the sniffles! How do you fix this thing?
New plan. We'll hold her off,
you get him outta here and fix that.
[Romy] Run!
[laughs]
[pants] I still can't believe I could
bring about the end of days.
It's too much responsibility.
[laughs]
[grunting]
[screams, grunting]
[grunting]
[grunting, panting]
[Mallory screams]
-[grunts]
-[grunts]
[groaning]
-[shouts]
-[Myrrh yells]
[whimpers]
-Quick, inside!
-Huh?
[cackles]
-[panting]
-[panting, grunts]
[both gasp]
[sighs] I'm getting too old
for this stuff. And too young to retire.
-Oh, it's hopeless!
-[Margot] Fixed it.
Oh, nice one. Okay, Doug.
It just says it needs your password.
Oh, it's… Cripes. I can't remember!
My mind blanks under pressure!
Fine. My mind blanks full stop.
Uh, it's probably something
to do with cheese?
I don't know.
Type in every kind of cheese!
[typing]
Uh, disco! Ooh, try-try, "DougLovesDisco."
Ooh, I do love disco.
[computer beeping]
We only get one more try or the
computer locks. Wait. I know what it is!
-Do it!
-Stop!
We can't let Margot try our last password.
She doesn't know anything about us,
or Doug. She isn't a Doomie.
Bobby, this is like your
Mordam secret all over again.
You're not alone in this. You gotta trust.
[banging on door]
[typing]
[computer beeping]
-Yes! I knew it!
-[Bobby, Romy exclaim]
It's the password all the oldies use.
"Password."
[chuckles]
[cackles]
[both gasp]
-[Romy] Oh, no!
-[both groan]
-[yelps]
-[Mallory laughs]
I guess brawn does have its uses.
[gasps, whimpers]
[cackles]
[groans]
[Mallory] Time for a major upgrade.
[cackles]
Primal evil. It is so much
more powerful than I knew.
Forget Ouimper. With this,
I can be mayor of the world!
Wait. Doug was this powerful all along?
Why didn't he do more?
[sighs] We were always doomed to fail.
[laughing]
[gasps]
-Margot, you led us here on purpose.
-Huh?
Bobby, what are you talking about?
Well, think about it.
She's been playing us from the start.
She's a schemer. Trust me.
[groans]
You got me.
-As if I'd ever join your loser club.
-[gasps]
I belong in my mom's dynasty,
and you're my ticket into it. So thanks.
Although you did ruin my big reveal.
Margot! How could you?
Really easily. I told you.
You schemed all this for me?
Margot, we-we had a high five routine!
[scoffs] Forget it, Romy.
That nepo baby was just using us.
Like mother, like daughter.
It's true.
She does remind me of me.
She has my ambition.
Mommy, give me some power
and let me zap 'em.
I've always wanted minions of my own.
[gasps]
[strains]
Huh?
[Kim grunts]
[screams]
[groans]
Sorry, Mom. [grunts]
[groans]
[gasps]
[laughs]
[cackles]
[gasps, grunts]
-[groaning]
-[yelps, groans]
[honks]
Huh? [yelps]
[chuckles] Hi, there.
[grunts]
[whimpers]
Whoa. We did it. Well, Margot did.
[sighs] And you were right.
I needed to trust her.
And you. You always
come through for me, Romy.
[chuckles] Whoa! [exclaims]
[groans] Looks like we
stopped the mayor then.
Is the mayor here? Oh! Where?
Oh, I'd love to meet them.
Mom? You-You don't remember?
Don't worry, kid. The eviltanium
has fritzed her a tad,
but her memory will eventually return.
Just, uh, maybe no more politics.
I guess I could be mayor. I mean…
[scoffs] …it's what the people would want.
Is that it? Was saving
the world surprisingly easy or…
Are we just getting better?
-[Bobby yelps]
-[Romy gasps]
[Redwid laughs]
[gasps]
[Redwid laughs]
[Bobby gasps]
Wait. Did we forget to cure him?
Doug, get your computer.
[laughs] Fools! Cure me? I am the cure.
For years, I have planned this. Whispering
into the mayor's ear about primal evil.
Watching her stumble into its embrace.
Then, finally, allowing you
to overload her mind with its power.
And all the while, I waited for my chance.
Your chance to learn to fly?
It is far more than that. But yes,
the flying is fun. I do have to admit.
I, the town planner of Ouimper,
have used you all to redesign
this whole town for one purpose.
To master all dimensions! [cackles]
[gasps] Just like in my books.
This is the beginning of the apocalypse.
[whimpers]
[all gasp]
Welp, one more big bad then, I guess.
Yeah, and this time, we have an audience.
[cackles]
[theme song playing]
