The Troop (2009) s01e22 Episode Script

Hayley Is there anything
sadder than an abandoned
toy factory?
Felix I can think of
a lot of things:
lost puppies, an orphan prison,
a world made of sorrow
Jake Okay, we get it.
What they do with
all this stuff?
Well, that's what
inside the teddy bears.
Hayley No way, dude,
all mine are made of love.
Felix Be careful,
guys, we're close.
Hideocutes is the skunk
of the monster world.
It smells terrible
even to monsters.
[detector beeps]
Oooh!
[gurgles]
Jake A bunny?
This can't be the monster.
It is.
It's a nightmare.
But it's so cuddly.
[gurgles]
[screech]
Oh! Not cuddly!
Not cuddly!
Why doesn't anyone
believe me?!
[Jake grunts]
[screech]
Jake Get the container!
This one's a squirmer!
[screeches]
[Jake screams]
[screeches]
I thought these Hideocutes
were suppose to stink.
This one smells delicious.
Hayley Yeah, I'm
getting [sniff]
orangelemon.
Something zesty.
This is not good.
TroopGrid said if there's a
good-smelling Hideocute, then
[growl]
the Zylork can't
be far behind.
Looks like TroopGrid
is right again.
[snarls]
Run!
[zaps, snarls]
[growl]
[zaps, snarls]
Jake Come on!
Come on, come on, come on!
Hurry! Quickly!
Come on, come on, come on!
[growl]
[snarls]
Jake That was close.
Are you guys okay?
Felix Just a few scratches.
Hayley Something's not right.
You saw how powerful
that monster was.
He could have easily gotten us.
Maybe it's lazy.
Not everyone's a super achiever.
Tell me about it.
Felix At least we're okay.
You are not okay.
We're not?
No you, Jake.
Zylorks scratch their victims
with a horrible venom
that marinates you.
Marinates?
Stockley Yes, and as
the venom takes hold,
you'll start to smell delicious.
Then shortly thereafter, you'll
develop an overwhelming desire
to return to the
Zylork to be eaten.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Return to the Zylork?
Wait, I don't understand.
Zylorks always consume
its prey at the place
where it's scratched them.
And it must love that factory
because of all that comfy
cotton-poly fill.
Zylorks are tremendous nappers.
So, we'll want to be
eaten by a horrible monster?
If you're lucky.
But it's worse than that.
How can it get worse
than that, Mr. Stockley?
If we don't administer
the antidote within 24 hours,
you're done for,
Zylork or no Zylork.
That is worse.
Good call.
So, what should we do?
I'm going to use
the Hideocute's blood
to create an antidote.
Hayley Oh wow, I did not know
you had the chemistry background
for that.
I don't.
But I have something that's even
more important: confidence.
[Hideocute gurgles]
[screeches]
I got this.
Oh, and Jake, lock 'em up.
Hayley Ah, wha, what?
Pretty soon you're going to
want to run back to the Zylork.
Jake's going to have
to guard you to make sure
that doesn't happen.
On it.
You just go work
on the anecdote.
Antidote.
Like there's a difference.
An anecdote is story.
An antidote is a cure.
So for instance, if Mr. Stockley
can't make the antidote,
the disastrous consequence
will make for a sad anecdote.
Hmm.
Let me out of here!
I'm not cut out
for the big house.
The prisoners will destroy me.
Um, hey, I'm the
only other prisoner.
I know.
Jake Listen, I don't like
seeing you guys in here
anymore than you
like being here,
but as long as I'm in
charge of your safety,
I will always be one
step ahead of you.
Got it?
Got it.
Got it.
Now,
how do I re-program
the code?
Are you sure you want to take
advice from your prisoners?
Right.
Testing you.
Very good.
I'll figure it out myself.
Jake, can you
promise me something?
If all this goes badly and
I don't make it through,
can you do me one small favour?
Sure, Felix, anything.
Take all my action figures,
many of which are priceless,
and sell them.
Then, use the money
to buy time on all the networks
for my memorial special:
"Farewell, Shooting Star:
The Short and Glorious Life
of Felix Garcia."
Now, the script, the graphics,
and the list of approved
actors are in my computer.
Make sure you go to Johnny Depp
first and then Meryl Streep.
She can do anything.
Oh, I know.
But, it's my job to make
sure things never get
to the 'Streep' scenario.
Do you guys smell that?
It's like
[sniff]
chocolate cake.
[sniffs]
Yep, yeah that's me.
I ah, I smell like
chocolate cake.
Jake An a roast
chicken dinner.
That one.
Felix Smells like some
roasted turkey with
oregano stuffing.
Hayley Aw, this is
making me so hungry, Jake.
Can you please at least
just get us some food?
Fine.
Is Chinese okay?
Felix Yeah, oh,
and some tacos.
Oh, and an Admiral Smoothie.
Extra large.
Felix Oh yeah, and if you
can get me some soy sauce,
hot sauce and tarter sauce,
that would be great!
Hayley Oh, oh, and sprinkles.
Rainbow sprinkles.
Okay, but I'm putting down
an extra security measure
so you guys don't
get out of here.
Bubble wrap?
Who's going to hear that?
Not for the sound.
It's just that nobody can resist
playing with bubble wrap.
[pop]
Rule number one:
no distractions.
[sniff]
Ooh, you smell delicious.
[Hideocute gurgles]
[screech]
[scream]
Oooh! Aaah!
Wooo! Ahhh!
[fire crackles]
[sniff]
Ahhhh!
Ohhh! Ohhh! Ohhh!
Well, that could have been bad.
Jake Guys, Admiral
Smoothie bought out
The Potato Connection.
This smoothie's made of
French fries and graaaavy
[Hideocute screeches]
[screeching fades]
Ah-oh.
Mr. Stockley!
Felix and Hayley escaped!
Oh, ah, yes, well the ah,
Hideocute it might have ah,
possibly, ah escaped too.
Jake What!
What happened to your clothes?
No time for that.
I don't understand how Hayley
and Felix could have escaped.
I reprogrammed the force-field.
You didn't use your
birthday as the code, did you?
No time for that.
We've got to find those guys.
Okay, look.
They all have to be here
somewhere so let's
start looking.
The Hideocute will
leave a trail of foam.
Like that?
A smaller trail.
Go.
[Jake chuckles]
Tiny, foamy footprints.
There goes our anecdote.
Antidote.
Whatever.
You look for the Hideocute,
I'll go after Hayley and Felix.
Jake, listen, you've got
to keep them from going back
to that factory to be eaten.
You've got to keep
them in the school.
Even if it means you
have to shoot them.
I don't know
if I can do that.
Hopefully, we won't
have to find out
but you better take
some weapons.
And hurry, Jake, they
could be anywhere.
[popping bubbles]
[Hideocute gurgles]
[clatter]
Jake Hayley! Felix!
Please, you have to
come back to HQ with me.
The Zylork is going to eat you.
Sorry, Jake, but
we have dinner plans.
Jake No, you are dinner,
don't you get it?
He's dinner.
I'm dessert.
Don't tell, but I'm
much more delicious.
Are not!
He's going to eat me first.
Hayley Well, of course,
dummy, you're dinner.
Jake Enough!
Mr. Stockley will be done
with the anecdote soon.
Antidote.
Oh, right.
But the important thing is
you have to come back to HQ
and let me help you.
Nice try, Jake.
But you're not here to help us.
You're trying to stop us from
going home to the Zylork.
Yes.
That is what I want.
Excuse me for not wanting
my friends to be eaten
by a horrible monster.
Hayley You don't see
what a beautiful experience
this will be for us.
That's why we're here, Jake.
We were born to
nourish the Zylork.
Don't derive us of that.
You guys are delirious.
Yeah.
Delirious with flavor.
Now, let us out of here.
No!
You'll have to get by me first.
[clatter]
[Hayley screams]
You can't stop us, Jake.
We will succeed.
It's only a matter of time.
[Hideocute purrs]
[Stockley chuckles]
Here, little ferocious
but adorable not-a-bunny.
Come here.
[gurgles]
Gum on the table.
Wayne Robinson,
that's two demerits.
[groan]
Wayne Robinson, three demerits
and a dry-cleaning charge.
[gurgles]
Don't you want a carrot
that's not at all rigged
in a cartoon fashion.
[screech]
Oww!
[chuckles]
Jake Mr. Stockley,
are you there?
How's the antidote, the cure
and not an amusing story?
Hey, I got it right.
I captured the Hideocute.
Now all I need to do
is draw its blood,
create a serum from a distilled
derivative of the venom
and then combine it with
a protein/glucose base.
Should be easy.
Jake The only word
I understood from that
was the word 'captured'.
Do I need to know any more?
Not really.
How are things with you?
I have Hayley and Felix
trapped in the cafeteria but
there's nothing I could do
to stop them from preparing
themselves to be eaten.
[hums]
Hayley Yes.
[clatter]
How's it coming?
Another half hour.
Can't rush these things.
Stockley The situation
is escalating.
Now, you have got to
keep them in the school.
If they get to the factory,
you'll have to fight them
and the Zylork.
Do you understand?
They're my best friends.
How do I do that?
Mr. Stockley?
Are you doing that thing
where you pretend there's
a transmission delay because
you don't the answer?
Stockley Jake, I had a dog
that I loved more than anything
but then he got very, very sick.
So you had to put him down?
No, he got hit by a bus.
But I had made the decision
in my mind that I would
do the right thing.
Luckily for me, an open gate
in the metro express
saved me from a very
ugly moment.
Scruffy was scattered
across the city.
You had him cremated?
No.
Is there a point?
Stockley Yes.
Zylork venom is very powerful.
At a certain point, they
might be a lost cause.
Then, you have to be prepared
to use your weapons.
[clatter]
[Felix grunts]
[clatter]
Hayley Felix, hurry up.
The Zylork must
be getting hungry.
You're not going anywhere.
What are you
gonna do, baste us?
Actually, I missed a spot
on my elbow so go ahead.
We have watchcoms too.
And we heard what
Mr. Stockley said.
Then you know that
I have to stop you.
Jake, I know you're
not going to blast us.
Oh, yeah.
How do you know that?
Because you like
to act tough,
but you're soft inside.
Like nougat.
Rich, creamy nougat.
Now!
Oooow.
Felix Hurry before the
Zylork fills up on bread.
Ha ha!
[door slams]
Mr. Zylork, we're here
and we're delicious.
Felix Hayley,
what do you think?
Hayley Making signs?
You gotta be losing your mind.
We're here to eaten
by a ravenous beast.
Right, sorry.
I don't even know
what gluten is.
[Hideocute gurgles]
[squeak]
[gurgles]
Ohh! Ahh! Oooh!
[Hideocute gurgles]
Ohh! Ahh! Oooh!
[Hideocute gurgles]
[Hideocute gurgles]
Uh-oh.
Hayley!
Felix!
Look, guys, I'm not
here to fight.
I know I can't stop you.
But what if the Zylork
doesn't want to eat you?
Oh, he'll want to.
We're free-range.
Don't you want to make sure?
Hayley Everyone loves
whipped cream.
Ha ha!
Felix Hayley!
[Hayley grunts]
Hayley Jake!
Let me out!
Jake!
Let me out!
Ahhh!
[Zylork growls]
[zap]
[snarls]
Okay, Zylork,
I've been marinated,
tenderized and seasoned.
Put a fork in me, I'm done!
[grunts]
[zap]
[snarls]
Jake!
[Hayley grunts]
Where's the Zylork?
He ran off.
Jake shot one of its heads.
Which head?
The dinner head
or the dessert head?
I don't know.
Okay, well we need
to get to him before Jake does
or we'll be saved.
Not on my watch.
Mr. Stockley, I've
almost got the monster.
How the Hideocute?
I've encountered
a small problem.
Another one?
I thought you said
this would be easy.
Stockley Well, sometimes
are easy, Jake.
Sometimes they're hard
and you just fail.
Then you say you're a loser.
You can do this.
Stockley Yeah.
Just tell those kids I love 'em
and I'll miss 'em.
Jake Mr. Stockley,
do I have to tell you
an inspirational anecdote?
You just did, Jake.
Because if you can learn the
difference between an antidote
and an anecdote then
anything's possible.
Jake It really is.
[Zylork growls in distance]
I gotta go.
Good luck, Jake.
[snarl]
[farts]
I refuse to be leftovers.
I have too much pride.
[zap]
[clink of metal]
You see, I can take
you out if I have to.
Get away from the door, Felix.
Let me finish him.
Can't he have a last meal?
Don't make me fire again.
[whack, clink]
Sorry, Jake,
it's dinner time.
[groans]
Aaaaaah!
[farts]
It wasn't me.
Look.
[farts]
Get the circuitron.
We have to blast this door open.
[grunts]
Sorry, Jake, but
the Zylork needs us.
[grunts]
I understand, Felix.
It's the venom talking.
And here's my reply.
[Felix groans]
[grunts and groans]
Jake I'm sorry, Hayley,
but I can't let you have
the circuitron.
Apology accepted.
[grunts and groans]
[groan]
[Zylork snarls]
[zap]
[Zylork growls]
Yey!
Felix, come on, come on!
[farts]
Hayley It's coming.
Ha ha ha.
I know it's been
a hard day, Zylork.
Felix But you
deserve a good meal.
[Zylork grumbles]
[zap]
I'm afraid I had to
cancel your reservation.
[growl]
[zap, splat]
Is Mr. Stockley coming
with the antidote?
Jake I don't know.
He won't answer his watchcom.
I feel like I'm join the
gigantic salad bar in the sky.
Felix Jake?
If I don't make it
I know.
A memorial special.
I'm going to rename it:
"A Lifetime of Flavor:
The Story of Felix Garcia".
Well, how are they doing?
Is that the pizza guy?
Has the pizza guy come for me?
Ha ha.
Felix Ah, someone flatten
me up so I can fit in a box.
We're about to lose them.
What took you so long?
Well, I figured it out as
soon as we got off watchcoms.
But it took a long time
to get it into
the easy to swallow gelcaps.
Open up.
