The Villains Of Valley View (2022) s02e05 Episode Script
Overnight Success
1
[soft rock music playing]
Oh, hey, folks!
Go online and checkout our band Mad Hart.
The Round-Up's Anniversary Show
is this Friday,
and whatever band has the most followers
gets to perform.
So, if you like us, give us a follow.
I'll take that as a no.
Follow us, or you don't get
your food back.
[phone beeps]
Enjoy your meal.
Amy, you can't be aggressive
with the customers.
Why not? It's working better
than your method.
We gotta find a way to get
these people to follow us.
Oh, maybe I could
just turn up the friendly.
Wait, this goes up?
Oh. Hi!
Wanna checkout our Gem!
[sighs] I'll turn up
the friendly on the next one.
Flyers. That's cute.
But I already have way more followers,
so you're wasting your time.
Not that I don't enjoy
stepping on your faces.
Who hurt you?
I'm already up to a thousand followers.
My parents chartered a plane
to fly a banner with the link
to my music video.
And then tomorrow, we've got a skywriter.
I'm gonna own the sky!
Later, haters.
- How many followers do we have?
- Oh
Well, we started the day at 52.
And we're ending the day at 51.
Amy, you and Hartley
have to take your soliciting outside.
Customers are complaining.
Plus, someone's gonna have to clean
all this up, and there's 100% chance
that someone will be me.
Oh, well, in that case
Kinda set myself up for that, didn't I?
- Come on, out you go.
- [Hartley sighs]
Can you at least kick out Gem, too?
Wait, Gem is here?
Have you seen her music video?
No, and why have you?
Okay, before you get mad,
I meant to hate-watch it,
but then I forgot to hate it.
So I guess I like-watched it.
I also may have followed her.
Amy, I think I solved our problem.
We should make a music video.
We're way better singers than Gem.
And if more people see that,
there's no way
she gets more followers than us.
I don't know. Her video was really good.
Yeah? Well, ours will be better.
She had pyrotechnics and special effects.
I don't see how it can be topped.
- Heads-up, everyone.
- [airplane engine droning]
Gem Air is coming in hot.
[patrons cheering and applauding]
What do you know? She topped it.
[theme music playing]
[rock music playing]
I'm sorry, are we filming a music video
or running a garage sale for a person
who's clearly given up on life?
Contest deadline's tomorrow,
so I raided my grandma's she-shed.
I thought we'd give it a Katy Perry vibe
and film ourselves wandering
through the sunflowers.
Do you see how rusty those spikes are?
The only thing we're gonna be
wandering through
- is an emergency room.
- [door opens]
Oh, look, it's Harry Got No Styles.
I didn't have time
to recruit backup dancers,
so, we have Jake.
Quick question. Is it okay if my character
is a fan of Gem's video?
I memorized all of her dance moves.
We're gonna lose.
Hartley, I'm sorry,
but we'll never beat
Gem's Rich Kid video.
[door opens]
Uh, what's with the toilet?
Well, Hartley, I realized
I built an incredibly high-tech lair
with the most advanced technology
in the world,
but I forgot one thing,
a bathroom.
Sometimes I find his genius
to be hit or miss.
So, I'm embarking
on a little do-it-yourself project,
but this one won't work.
Remind me never to buy used.
Okay if I leave it here?
Um, no.
Oh, well, I'm gonna do it anyway.
Hm, great. That's just
the high-class touch this video needs.
I mean, Gem's got a skydiver,
we've got a potty.
Look, I know it's not perfect,
but we have to try.
I mean, how else are we gonna get
a whole bunch of people
to follow us in one day?
You know what? You're right, Hartley.
We should give it a try.
But only if you'll let me edit
the final product.
Sure.
You're, um, cutting me
out of the video, aren't you?
Dressed like that, you cut yourself out.
[rock music plays]
Well, Colby, would you care
to explain why our courtyard
looks like a cheaply-made movie
where the robots take over?
Which they will, eventually.
It's only a matter of time
before I'm replaced
by a cyborg in designer glasses.
- Look, I didn't do this.
- And why should I believe you?
Well, for starters,
this looks like a lot of work,
and I'm pretty lazy.
Oh, Mrs. Madden,
thank you for gracing us
with your presence,
half an hour late.
She's also lazy. Kinda runs in the family.
Your son tin-foiled our courtyard.
Fortunately, Daphne caught him in the act,
told me to look in his backpack,
and when I did,
I found these!
Colby! Ugh, we've been over this.
Always destroy the evidence.
To think that he'd waste
a perfectly good household item
I bet there's some poor soul out there
who can't even wrap
their leftovers right now.
- She's lying! I'm being framed!
- [both gasp]
Daphne would never do that!
And I should know because she's my niece.
She's always been a good girl.
She didn't even cry as a baby.
And burden my family? Never!
The key is a good swaddle.
Sometimes, her mother Lulu and I
would swaddle each other
while we watched our soaps.
Colby, I'm giving you a month's detention.
Come on, Daphne.
I need you to help swaddle me
for my midday nap.
Look, she framed me
and I'm gonna prove it.
I'll just bait her
into doing something bad,
and when I catch her,
I'll turn her over to Tennyson.
Colby, that plan sounds pure evil,
and I'm not gonna let you do it
without my supervision.
[rock music plays]
The views on our video are flooding in.
Speaking of floods,
what's with the wet socks?
Uh Oh, well,
I had a minor leak
with the bathroom renovation.
Just a drip. Very minor.
You're a genius and you're struggling
with a do-it-yourself project?
Who's struggling? It's a minor issue.
That's the third time you've said "minor."
Because it is!
Look, Amy, I'm a genius,
and as a genius, plumbing is beneath me,
literally and figuratively.
And I can use words like those
because I'm a genius.
That's the third time
you've said "genius."
Because I am!
Amy! People love our new video.
I mean, I haven't seen it yet
since my grandma has
parental controls on my phone.
Why does she
You know what? We'll get into that later.
Anyways, we're getting
a ton of new followers.
- We'll beat Gem easily.
- Of course we will,
because I added
a little something in editing
to make sure people absolutely loved it.
What kind of little something?
Allow me to demonstrate.
Hey, Jake, have you seen our new video?
Nope. If you don't want to see this
then I don't wanna see that.
- Come on, just give it a watch.
- No, Amy, I told you, I'm not interested.
This is where the party's at ♪
Ooh, la, la, la, la ♪
Ooh, la, la, la, la, la ♪
Ooh, la, la, la, la
This is where the party's at ♪
We are the song you won't forget ♪
Ooh ♪
Can't get us out of your head ♪
That was the most amazing
music video I've ever seen.
- It was?
- Yeah. It blows Gem's video away.
I wanted to hate-watch it, but instead,
I love-watched it. [gasps]
I am going to tell everyone I know
to follow Mad Hart.
[shrieks]
What did you do?
Just a minor tweak.
I added sonic hypnosis.
Now anyone watching will be
an instant fan and follower.
We're guaranteed to beat Gem.
That wasn't a minor tweak.
[giggles] No, it was not.
[rock melody plays]
[rock music plays]
Amy, I don't want to have
to brainwash people
to get them to like our music.
Hm, you don't want me to threaten people.
You don't want me to brainwash people.
You're really handcuffing me. [gasps] Ooh!
We should handcuff people.
All you're doing is making Gem
look like the good guy.
You gotta undo this right now.
No way. If I do that,
Gem will definitely win.
Well, at least she'd win fairly.
Look, just be happy
that you're best friends with a villain
who can use her powers
to make your life easier.
And a catch.
Fine. If you won't undo it, I will.
- [objects clattering]
- [Vic screams]
Uh, Mr. Madden, everything okay?
Oh, yep. Fine.
For safety reasons, I'd avoid touching
that puddle, that puddle, or that puddle,
but otherwise, you're good.
Uh, well, I wanted to ask
your advice on something.
- But if you're busy
- Busy?
With a simple do-it-yourself project
anyone can do?
Nonsense. Ask away.
Well, hypothetically,
if Amy used her sonic hypnosis
on our music video
to brainwash people into liking us,
- would there be a way to undo it?
- Uh, sure. Of course.
How? By, like, playing it
backwards or something?
[pipes creak]
Yeah, mm-hmm, definitely.
Are we done here or?
Uh, yeah.
Are you sure you don't need any help?
With this little thing?
Hartley, please. That's insulting.
[pipes burst]
I don't suppose you have
any sandbags on you?
[rock melody plays]
You know, you don't have to be here.
I'm old enough to plot revenge on my own.
Uh-huh, and I'm bored enough
to live vicariously through you.
Check it out. There's no way
Daphne can resist
looking at her uncle's unattended laptop.
Especially since I left open
his folder of gym selfies.
Oh! Oh, I don't know what I was expecting,
but he's very bendy.
- Oh, here she comes.
- Oh!
[groans] Yikes.
There's something I can never unsee.
Boom! Busted!
Oh, it's you.
Oh, and I see you brought your mommy.
Doesn't she have anything better to do?
Nope. Apart from a court date
for unpaid parking tickets,
I'm totally free.
- Have any of you seen my laptop?
- Yes.
Yes. Your perfect little niece took it.
[both gasp]
Wait, what's going on?
She was holding it, like, two seconds ago.
I would never steal
someone else's property,
but she would. Check her bag.
[chuckles] Have at it.
All that's in there is a hammer,
a hoagie, and a lot of cash.
You know, mom stuff.
[gasps] A-ha! Here it is!
Why Why would I take his laptop
when his phone is so much easier
to put in my pocket?
Mm-hmm. I'm starting to see
where Colby learned his behavior.
Can you feel the judgment?
Hey, what's your deal?
What did I ever do to you?
Let me refresh your memory.
Monday. Cafeteria. Lunchtime.
You took the last chocolate milk.
So I had to wash down my BL
with regular milk,
like an animal!
[chuckles] Wait, so your cutthroat antics
are the result of something that petty?
Watch it, girlie, that's my game.
Then game on, Grandma.
[Eva gasps]
Is it bad how much I want
to get revenge on her?
Hm, of course not. We're villains.
When they go low,
we go lower.
[rock melody plays]
- There you are.
- Were you looking for me?
No.
Oh. Well, I was looking for you.
- [Amy sighs]
- Since you went behind my back
and added sonic hypnosis,
I decided to go behind yours
and reverse it.
You did what now?
I took down the video you posted
and replaced it
with the same one played backwards.
And all the fake followers you got us
have already watched it.
That's right. I undid what you did. Boom!
Okay, first off, great speech.
Very spirited.
Second, that's not how it works.
You can't just reverse it.
So, I didn't do anything?
It's them! It's Mad Hart! [screams]
Oh, it definitely did something.
[all screaming]
No! [chuckles] You didn't stop them
from being fans.
You turned them into obsessed superfans,
which is actually kinda cool.
[camera shutters clicking]
Move it, sheep.
[grunting]
Why are these freaks
fawning over you and not me?
I'm guessing you didn't watch our video.
No. I don't spend any more time
looking at you than I have to.
[camera shutters clicking]
Something's weird.
So until I find out what it is,
off my stage.
[scoffs] Your stage?
Look around. This is our stage,
and we are never leaving.
[Amy gasps]
- I got her shoe!
- [all cheering]
Okay, now we're leaving.
[all screaming]
[rock melody plays]
- [Hartley exclaims]
- [all screaming]
[gasps] Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh!
Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh!
It's Mad Hart,
in my living room! [shrieks]
Oh, no. You too?
And by the way, your squealing
is worse than your dancing.
I am your biggest fan.
Will you do me the honor
of signing my face?
Okay, I know we're in crisis mode,
but this is a rare opportunity.
I heart Amy.
[shrieks]
Wait, why are your villain suits
in the living room?
I had to move everything up here.
The lair flooded due to a
Genius who didn't read the instructions
before installing a toilet?
Uh, joke's on you.
I pivoted from the toilet and installed
the world's most powerful bidet.
The water pressure's ten times stronger
than a fire hose.
And that's a good thing?
[coughs]
Not really, no.
Hey, who are all those people?
The fans Amy hypnotized.
You said reversing the video would undo
the effects of her sonic hypnosis,
but it only made things worse!
I was a little distracted
dealing with a minor issue
that turned out to be
the worst day of my life.
- [screaming]
- What? No! No! Bad fan! Bad No!
If anyone gets in and sees these suits,
our secret could be exposed.
Lock everything!
[groans] How do we fix this?
Uh, I guess I could use my sonic hypnosis
to brainwash them to not like us.
We just need to reach everyone
at the same time.
Ooh, I know.
We could do a live stream
from the front porch.
We just need someone to track the views
and make sure everyone's watching.
Think you can handle that, Dad?
- Does it involve plumbing?
- No.
I'm in.
[rock music playing]
I know what you're up to, weasel.
You were trying to make it look like
I rigged your locker
to explode chocolate milk
so you can report me to my uncle.
You got me.
Do you know what happened
to the last person who tricked a Tennyson?
- No.
- Me neither, because it's never happened!
Uh, Principal Tennyson.
Your innocent little niece
just rigged my locker to explode
chocolate milk when I open it.
He's setting me up, Uncle Kiki.
Okay, let's keep it professional.
Around here, it's Principal Kiki.
And, Colby, I have had enough
of you trying to make my niece look bad.
Do you know that she's never had a cavity?
Me? Take out the fake stuff,
and I'm all gums.
Well, if Daphne isn't setting me up,
then what's that string on her hand?
- What string? Now, let me see.
- No!
Daphne! How could you? [breathes heavily]
- But it wasn't me!
- Save it!
If you can be this conniving,
I'm guessing you were behind
the laptop and the tin foil.
Colby, you are off the hook.
Daphne, starting tomorrow, I'm sending you
where no Tennyson has gone before.
To the detention room.
Really? Haven't you been there?
Oh, no. It's completely unsupervised.
Looks like you messed with the wrong guy.
Or the right one.
- Huh?
- You've got game, Madden.
This is the first fun I've had
since I got here.
When you're the principal's niece,
you have to be perfect and boring.
I gotta do something to keep things fresh.
Wait, so tormenting me
was just a game for your amusement?
Respect.
I still can't figure out how you got me,
but all I can say is,
your victory is gonna be shorter
than my uncle's gym shorts.
[transference zap]
[chuckles]
She is twisted.
I really like her. [chuckles]
Hey, and great idea
using your transference power
to make me invisible
to put the string on her hand.
Thanks for your help, Mom.
Let's get outta here.
I'm just gonna grab my backpack.
[laughing]
- I can't believe it. She got me again!
- [Eva laughs]
That was actually me.
Moms gotta have some fun too.
[rock music plays]
I built this sophisticated supercomputer
so I can keep track of the views.
You know you could just use
your phone, right?
It floated away in the flood.
Okay, for this to work,
we'll go from the top,
make sure everyone's watching.
And on my dad's cue,
hit 'em with my sonic hypnosis.
Okay, everyone,
who's ready for some Mad Hart?
[cheering]
And who wants Amy's clothes?
[cheering]
I do. I want Amy's clothes.
[cheering]
Uh, we should probably do this.
Right.
Let's give them the most exciting
and the most disappointing concert
of their lives.

Yes! [inhales sharply] Feels like
a weird thing to celebrate, but yes!
Okay, why were people following them?
Why are people leaving them?
And why does your face say "I heart Amy"?
What?
Don't look at me! I'm hideous!
Don't worry, my high-powered bidet
will blast that right off!
What is going on?
I guess our fans just lost interest.
So, that means I win, right?
Say it.
Say it!
Yes, congratulations, Gem.
You did

And the crowd goes wild.
Look, I know we're not
the overnight success we hoped to be,
but we'll perform to a full house one day.
It might just take some time.
I'm fine with that. How long we talking?
Like, two nights? I could do three, max.
It'll take as long
as it's supposed to take.
And we should enjoy
every beat of this journey,
which includes getting fans
and followers the right way.
[groans softly] You know
I'm not big on the right way.
Well, maybe you should rethink that
since your way almost got
your secret exposed.
- Secret?
- Yeah, it's too bad
I can't use sonic hypnosis on myself.
I'd like to erase the image
of Jake dancing.
Hm. Pretty sure we can all agree
that was not dancing.
Sonic hypnosis?
[scoffs] I knew there was
something weird about that girl.
[foreboding music plays]
And I'm gonna find out what it is.
[theme music playing]
[soft rock music playing]
Oh, hey, folks!

without my supervision.
[rock music plays]
The views on our video are flooding in.
Speaking of floods,
what's with the wet socks?
Uh Oh, well,
I had a minor leak
with the bathroom renovation.
Just a drip. Very minor.
You're a genius and you're struggling

Who's struggling? It's a minor issue.
That's the third time you've said "minor."
Because it is!
Look, Amy, I'm a genius,
and as a genius, plumbing is beneath me,
literally and figuratively.
And I can use words like those
because I'm a genius.
That's the third time
you've said "genius."
Because I am!
Amy! People love our new video.
I mean, I haven't seen it yet
since my grandma has
parental controls on my phone.
Why does she
You know what? We'll get into that later.
Anyways, we're getting
a ton of new followers.
- We'll beat Gem easily.
- Of course we will,
because I added
a little something in editing
to make sure people absolutely loved it.
What kind of little something?
Allow me to demonstrate.
Hey, Jake, have you seen our new video?
Nope. If you don't want to see this
then I don't wanna see that.
- Come on, just give it a watch.
- No, Amy, I told you, I'm not interested.
This is where the party's at ♪
Ooh, la, la, la, la ♪
Ooh, la, la, la, la, la ♪
Ooh, la, la, la, la
This is where the party's at ♪
We are the song you won't forget ♪
Ooh ♪
Can't get us out of your head ♪
That was the most amazing
music video I've ever seen.
- It was?
- Yeah. It blows Gem's video away.
I wanted to hate-watch it, but instead,
I love-watched it. [gasps]
I am going to tell everyone I know
to follow Mad Hart.
[shrieks]
What did you do?
Just a minor tweak.
I added sonic hypnosis.
Now anyone watching will be
an instant fan and follower.
We're guaranteed to beat Gem.
That wasn't a minor tweak.
[giggles] No, it was not.
[rock melody plays]
[rock music plays]
Amy, I don't want to have
to brainwash people
to get them to like our music.
Hm, you don't want me to threaten people.
You don't want me to brainwash people.
You're really handcuffing me. [gasps] Ooh!
We should handcuff people.
All you're doing is making Gem
look like the good guy.
You gotta undo this right now.
No way. If I do that,
Gem will definitely win.
Well, at least she'd win fairly.
Look, just be happy
that you're best friends with a villain
who can use her powers
to make your life easier.
And a catch.
Fine. If you won't undo it, I will.
- [objects clattering]
- [Vic screams]
Uh, Mr. Madden, everything okay?
Oh, yep. Fine.
For safety reasons, I'd avoid touching
that puddle, that puddle, or that puddle,
but otherwise, you're good.
Uh, well, I wanted to ask
your advice on something.
- But if you're busy
- Busy?
With a simple do-it-yourself project
anyone can do?
Nonsense. Ask away.
Well, hypothetically,
if Amy used her sonic hypnosis
on our music video
to brainwash people into liking us,
- would there be a way to undo it?
- Uh, sure. Of course.
How? By, like, playing it
backwards or something?
[pipes creak]
Yeah, mm-hmm, definitely.
Are we done here or?
Uh, yeah.
Are you sure you don't need any help?
With this little thing?
Hartley, please. That's insulting.
[pipes burst]
I don't suppose you have
any sandbags on you?
[rock melody plays]
You know, you don't have to be here.
I'm old enough to plot revenge on my own.
Uh-huh, and I'm bored enough
to live vicariously through you.
Check it out. There's no way
Daphne can resist
looking at her uncle's unattended laptop.
Especially since I left open
his folder of gym selfies.
Oh! Oh, I don't know what I was expecting,
but he's very bendy.
- Oh, here she comes.
- Oh!
[groans] Yikes.
There's something I can never unsee.
Boom! Busted!
Oh, it's you.
Oh, and I see you brought your mommy.
Doesn't she have anything better to do?
Nope. Apart from a court date
for unpaid parking tickets,
I'm totally free.
- Have any of you seen my laptop?
- Yes.
Yes. Your perfect little niece took it.
[both gasp]
Wait, what's going on?
She was holding it, like, two seconds ago.
I would never steal
someone else's property,
but she would. Check her bag.
[chuckles] Have at it.
All that's in there is a hammer,
a hoagie, and a lot of cash.
You know, mom stuff.
[gasps] A-ha! Here it is!
Why Why would I take his laptop
when his phone is so much easier
to put in my pocket?
Mm-hmm. I'm starting to see
where Colby learned his behavior.
Can you feel the judgment?
Hey, what's your deal?
What did I ever do to you?
Let me refresh your memory.
Monday. Cafeteria. Lunchtime.
You took the last chocolate milk.
So I had to wash down my BL
with regular milk,
like an animal!
[chuckles] Wait, so your cutthroat antics
are the result of something that petty?
Watch it, girlie, that's my game.
Then game on, Grandma.
[Eva gasps]
Is it bad how much I want
to get revenge on her?
Hm, of course not. We're villains.
When they go low,
we go lower.
[rock melody plays]
- There you are.
- Were you looking for me?
No.
Oh. Well, I was looking for you.
- [Amy sighs]
- Since you went behind my back
and added sonic hypnosis,
I decided to go behind yours
and reverse it.
You did what now?
I took down the video you posted
and replaced it
with the same one played backwards.
And all the fake followers you got us
have already watched it.
That's right. I undid what you did. Boom!
Okay, first off, great speech.
Very spirited.
Second, that's not how it works.
You can't just reverse it.
So, I didn't do anything?
It's them! It's Mad Hart! [screams]
Oh, it definitely did something.
[all screaming]
No! [chuckles] You didn't stop them
from being fans.
You turned them into obsessed superfans,
which is actually kinda cool.
[camera shutters clicking]
Move it, sheep.
[grunting]
Why are these freaks
fawning over you and not me?
I'm guessing you didn't watch our video.
No. I don't spend any more time
looking at you than I have to.
[camera shutters clicking]
Something's weird.
So until I find out what it is,
off my stage.
[scoffs] Your stage?
Look around. This is our stage,
and we are never leaving.
[Amy gasps]
- I got her shoe!
- [all cheering]
Okay, now we're leaving.
[all screaming]
[rock melody plays]
- [Hartley exclaims]
- [all screaming]
[gasps] Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh!
Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh!
It's Mad Hart,
in my living room! [shrieks]
Oh, no. You too?
And by the way, your squealing
is worse than your dancing.
I am your biggest fan.
Will you do me the honor
of signing my face?
Okay, I know we're in crisis mode,
but this is a rare opportunity.
I heart Amy.
[shrieks]
Wait, why are your villain suits
in the living room?
I had to move everything up here.
The lair flooded due to a
Genius who didn't read the instructions
before installing a toilet?
Uh, joke's on you.
I pivoted from the toilet and installed
the world's most powerful bidet.
The water pressure's ten times stronger
than a fire hose.
And that's a good thing?
[coughs]
Not really, no.
Hey, who are all those people?
The fans Amy hypnotized.
You said reversing the video would undo
the effects of her sonic hypnosis,
but it only made things worse!
I was a little distracted
dealing with a minor issue
that turned out to be
the worst day of my life.
- [screaming]
- What? No! No! Bad fan! Bad No!
If anyone gets in and sees these suits,
our secret could be exposed.
Lock everything!
[groans] How do we fix this?
Uh, I guess I could use my sonic hypnosis
to brainwash them to not like us.
We just need to reach everyone
at the same time.
Ooh, I know.
We could do a live stream
from the front porch.
We just need someone to track the views
and make sure everyone's watching.
Think you can handle that, Dad?
- Does it involve plumbing?
- No.
I'm in.
[rock music playing]
I know what you're up to, weasel.
You were trying to make it look like
I rigged your locker
to explode chocolate milk
so you can report me to my uncle.
You got me.
Do you know what happened
to the last person who tricked a Tennyson?
- No.
- Me neither, because it's never happened!
Uh, Principal Tennyson.
Your innocent little niece
just rigged my locker to explode
chocolate milk when I open it.
He's setting me up, Uncle Kiki.
Okay, let's keep it professional.
Around here, it's Principal Kiki.
And, Colby, I have had enough
of you trying to make my niece look bad.
Do you know that she's never had a cavity?
Me? Take out the fake stuff,
and I'm all gums.
Well, if Daphne isn't setting me up,
then what's that string on her hand?
- What string? Now, let me see.
- No!
Daphne! How could you? [breathes heavily]
- But it wasn't me!
- Save it!
If you can be this conniving,
I'm guessing you were behind
the laptop and the tin foil.
Colby, you are off the hook.
Daphne, starting tomorrow, I'm sending you
where no Tennyson has gone before.
To the detention room.
Really? Haven't you been there?
Oh, no. It's completely unsupervised.
Looks like you messed with the wrong guy.
Or the right one.
- Huh?
- You've got game, Madden.
This is the first fun I've had
since I got here.
When you're the principal's niece,
you have to be perfect and boring.
I gotta do something to keep things fresh.
Wait, so tormenting me
was just a game for your amusement?
Respect.
I still can't figure out how you got me,
but all I can say is,
your victory is gonna be shorter
than my uncle's gym shorts.
[transference zap]
[chuckles]
She is twisted.
I really like her. [chuckles]
Hey, and great idea
using your transference power
to make me invisible
to put the string on her hand.
Thanks for your help, Mom.
Let's get outta here.
I'm just gonna grab my backpack.
[laughing]
- I can't believe it. She got me again!
- [Eva laughs]
That was actually me.
Moms gotta have some fun too.
[rock music plays]
I built this sophisticated supercomputer
so I can keep track of the views.
You know you could just use
your phone, right?
It floated away in the flood.
Okay, for this to work,
we'll go from the top,
make sure everyone's watching.
And on my dad's cue,
hit 'em with my sonic hypnosis.
Okay, everyone,
who's ready for some Mad Hart?
[cheering]
And who wants Amy's clothes?
[cheering]
I do. I want Amy's clothes.
[cheering]
Uh, we should probably do this.
Right.
Let's give them the most exciting
and the most disappointing concert
of their lives.

Yes! [inhales sharply] Feels like
a weird thing to celebrate, but yes!
Okay, why were people following them?
Why are people leaving them?
And why does your face say "I heart Amy"?
What?
Don't look at me! I'm hideous!
Don't worry, my high-powered bidet
will blast that right off!
What is going on?
I guess our fans just lost interest.
So, that means I win, right?
Say it.
Say it!
Yes, congratulations, Gem.
You did

And the crowd goes wild.
Look, I know we're not
the overnight success we hoped to be,
but we'll perform to a full house one day.
It might just take some time.
I'm fine with that. How long we talking?
Like, two nights? I could do three, max.
It'll take as long
as it's supposed to take.
And we should enjoy
every beat of this journey,
which includes getting fans
and followers the right way.
[groans softly] You know
I'm not big on the right way.
Well, maybe you should rethink that
since your way almost got
your secret exposed.
- Secret?
- Yeah, it's too bad
I can't use sonic hypnosis on myself.
I'd like to erase the image
of Jake dancing.
Hm. Pretty sure we can all agree
that was not dancing.
Sonic hypnosis?
[scoffs] I knew there was
something weird about that girl.
[foreboding music plays]
And I'm gonna find out what it is.
