I want a Mint Choc Chip, with extra Choc! I'd like a Purple Burple Banana-sicle in a pink cup! May I have please have a spinach and beetroot smoothie? What? I'm low on folic acid.
[children clamoring.]
[cooing.]
[laughs.]
[babbling.]
Could I have a Truck! My baby! I'm telling you! Teeter is when you're on the way up! Totter is when you're on the way down! You're talking crazy! Totter is up! Teeter is down! [man.]
Help! Help! Stop that truck! [laughing.]
- We'll never make it! - [panting.]
Huh? [tires skid.]
[truck crashes.]
[babbling.]
[laughing.]
[sighs.]
Here! We have to say you saved him! - Why? - My secret! If anyone finds out I'm half oyster I'm whole toast! [crowd gasps, murmurs.]
My baby! Thank you! Thank you! [cooing.]
The kid's a hero! [crowd cheers.]
Whoo-hoo! - Will you sign my forehead? - Marry me, Rafik! [crowd applauds.]
I'm gonna create a new flavor in your honor! The Rafik Zero to Hero anti-oxidant blast! [truck creaking.]
[crashing.]
Would you say your truck teetered or tottered before it fell? This is Nancy Grape reporting.
I'm awaiting the arrival of the young hero Rafik, after his daring baby rescue, he is now known as "Rafearless".
- [man.]
There he is! - Huh? [crowd cheers.]
[chuckles.]
Welcome, Rafik! Well done! Your brave actions earned you this "Get Out Of Detention Free Card!" [chuckles.]
Gotta admit, didn't think you had it in you.
You always seemed like the type who'd run from a butterfly.
Well, when it comes to rescuing babies, you just don't think about the danger.
That is so inspiring! Will you sign my sandwich? Ooh! [cell phone rings.]
Yeah, hello? Hey, kid! How'd you like to be the spokesperson for our new beverage? Rafik Juice! It's Ra-fierce! Wow! That'd be awesome! [cell phone beeps.]
Hang on.
- Hello? - Rafik! You got the fame, now all you need is a theme song.
Come by the recording studio and let's lay down some beats.
Righteous! [phone beeps.]
Hold that thought! Talk to me! I'm thinking a reality show based on you! How does "Keeping Up with Rafearless!" grab ya? - I'm grabbed! - Nancy Grape here.
Got a few questions: One: Why was the truck wet before it fell in the ocean? Two: How could a little guy like you stop a moving truck? Three: How come you haven't answered my first two questions? Uh well I Hey, everybody! I just got a Blurt saying a kid on the West Side saved a box of puppies from being shot into space! [crowd shouting.]
[brakes squeal.]
Gotta go! Space puppies are news! But I'll be watching you! [tires squeal.]
Oh, well, still got my show biz deals! [cell phone rings.]
Sorry pal! Gonna go with Puppy Juice! It's Pup-pow! See ya! Saving babies is so yester-minute! Saving puppies is the new groove.
Reality show not a reality.
Peace out, Rafearless.
[dial tone.]
What just happened? [sighs.]
Glad that's all over.
- That reporter was making me nervous.
- I don't get it.
One minute I'm the hottest thing around and the next, no one even remembers my name! - It's like I never saved that kid at all! - Well, you kinda didn't, remember? You! I'm going to need that detention card back.
[whimpering.]
This stinks! I need to be famous again! How're you gonna do that? It's not like you can wait for another baby to crawl into a fruit truck.
No, but what if we used the old oyster powers - to stage another rescue? - Ha! That's a good one, Rafik.
Come on, Boyster! You gotta help me! - I almost had a reality show! - Yeah, me too.
Only mine would have been about the oyster boy who has to spend the rest of his life in a research lab! Everything I get I'm gonna share with you.
Like that recording contract, huh? Think about it, you and me in the studio, busting rhymes! If you need some help and you need it right away Just call on Rafearless to save the day And also his best buddy Boyster [beatboxing.]
Ahh.
OK.
I'm in.
[Rafik.]
Now remember, you swim out to the no swimming area and pretend you're in trouble.
Then I'll swim out and rescue you.
Remind me again why I'm here? 'Cause Rafik's not that strong a swimmer.
Hey, it's not my fault.
I could never find a bathing suit that fit right.
OK.
Shall we commence with this fool's errand? Help! Help! - Help! - [Rafik.]
Someone in trouble?! Rafearless will save him! Stay where you are, kid.
Better leave this to the professionals.
[grunting.]
Huh? [lifeguard shouting, then thuds.]
[grunts.]
Help! Don't worry, young man, I'll save [screams.]
Jellyfish! [hysterical screaming.]
- Calm down! - Stop splashing around! The disruptions in the current will attract [yelling.]
Shaaaarks! Stop screaming like that.
You'll attract [yelling.]
Narwhaaaals! [all groaning.]
[screams.]
[all shouting.]
[all groaning.]
Rafearless did it again! How did we ever forget what a hero he is?! [all cheering.]
[cell phone rings.]
- You got him.
- Three words: Rafearless the movie! Parts One, Two and Three! How does that sound? Great, but what about the prequel? [tires skid.]
Nancy Grape here.
A few questions.
One: How did you make this rescue when sources tell me you are not a strong swimmer? Two: How did a little shaver like you scare off a school of sharks? Three: Is it possible that you didn't make this rescue at all? That in fact he did! [gasps.]
[cell phone rings.]
Hold that gasp! What? There's a 110-year-old woman scaling the Eyesore Tower with suction cups on her feet! [crowd cheering.]
Gotta go! [cell phone rings.]
Deal's off! We're gonna make a movie about SpiderGranny! [groans.]
Wowie wow! That was really close! I know! A movie! We need to make our next fake rescue even more amazing! Something that won't just make me famous, but will keep me famous! What?! No more! End of fake story! Why?! We're almost there! [beatboxing.]
Forget it, Rafik.
You heard Nancy Grape! - She's on to us! - She's just frontin'.
If you were really my friend, you'd do it! And if you were really my friend, you wouldn't keep asking me to risk everything! - Let's go, Shelby! - But [grunts.]
Help! Mr.
Rafearless! You've got to save Dr.
Wattles! He's in trouble! Huh? Boyster! Come Wait a minute! Who needs him? OK, kid.
Take me to the doctor! - [meows.]
That's Dr.
Wattles? - Uh-huh.
[sighs.]
Come on, Dr.
Wattles.
It's OK.
- Come on, boy - Girl! Girl.
[screams.]
[screeches.]
Well, I got her out of the tree.
Loving my brand new truck [humming.]
[screeches.]
[shouts.]
[crashing.]
[cracking.]
[Boyster.]
I don't know.
Maybe I overreacted.
But he should get where I'm coming from, right? - Or do you think I should apologize? - Mm-hm.
Sounds fun.
Shelby, you're not even listening! - What are you watching? - I'm not certain.
It appears to be a disaster movie about an urban area that is beset by a tidal wave.
[Boyster gasps.]
That's not a disaster movie! That's a disaster! Come on! Wait.
We'll get better camera angles on the TV! [people screaming.]
[cell phone ringing.]
If it's about the movie, I'm gonna have to get back to you! [Boyster.]
No, it's me.
Up here! Tell everyone to run right! Hey, everybody! Go right! Go right! [shouting continues.]
[grunting.]
[shouts.]
[contented sigh.]
[man.]
Rafearless did it again! He saved us! How did you know which way the water would go?! He didn't! He did! [all gasping.]
I have carefully examined evidence from the so-called "rescues" and have uncovered the truth! They could only have been performed by someone with superhuman ability.
From his strange appearance, and [sniffing.]
fishy odor, it's clear that this creature is no ordinary human.
In fact, I can only surmise that he's a half human/half oyster mutant created as a result of a toxic spill.
[all gasp.]
You know I'm right! [groans quietly.]
Yes, you are right! [gasps.]
[Rafik.]
But just about one thing! Not about Boyster being some kind of a mutant.
That's just crazy! He is the real hero and he deserves all the credit.
I just wanted to be famous, and he just wanted to be a friend.
Have you ever seen a more honest kid in your life!? She's a liar! [crowd boos.]
Hooray for Rafik! The most honest boy in town! I'm watching you, oyster kid.
I'll get proof! [tires squeal.]
[relieved sigh.]
[crowd cheering.]
[cell phone ringing.]
Don't worry, I'm over that stuff.
[ringing continues.]
Then again, I don't wanna be rude.
Go for Ra-honest.
Uh [seagulls calling.]
Whoo-hoo! Hey, Shelby.
Look at this day! Let's hit the beach and shred some waves! I think not, Boyster.
I'm quite content where I am and have no interest in shredding anything.
Ahh! Okay.
This is an outrage! - Put me down! - Come on, Shelby.
Where am I gonna find a better water scooter then you? [mom.]
Just where do you two think you're going? Uh, for a water scooter ride? At the beach? With all the crowds? Why don't you climb on the roof and shout "Hey! Look at me! I'm an oyster boy and here's my giant shell!" But Mom Sorry.
There is no way you're riding Shelby today.
Ohh Because you'll be riding this! Wow! A water scooter! Made entirely of recycled parts and assembled by me! And powered by a cabbage-based biofuel designed by me! [gas hissing.]
Ahh.
Shelby! Hm? - Thank you, Boyster.
- Thank you, thank you! You're the best! This thing is awesome.
- This thing is a piece of junk! - [Boyster.]
What are you talking about?! My parents worked really hard to make this! [both snoring.]
I guess it doesn't matter what it looks like.
What matters is what's under the hood! Let's see what she can do.
[engine revs.]
[both.]
Yee-haw! [engine sputters.]
[makes passing gas sound.]
Oh no.
You're right.
It is a piece of junk.
Well, at least nobody saw us.
[boys laughing.]
Careful, Boyster! There's some whale poo in the water, and you're sitting on it! [exaggerated laugh.]
[all.]
Yeah! [all laughing.]
[both snoring.]
Hm? [sighing.]
There you are! I need you to help me repair my North tower.
Some depraved youth knocked it over with a volleyball! Why the long face?! Is there a problem with the water scooter? Problem with the water scooter?! What is it? I'm sure there's not a problem.
We spent days perfecting every part of it, darling.
You're right, baby.
A problem would mean we failed miserably and all those weeks of hard work were for nothing! [both laughing.]
[gasps.]
Is there a problem with the water scooter?! Uh, yeah, it it goes so fast, Rafik got a chill! Huh? Oh, yeah, right! Brrr.
Think I might be getting a cold even.
Ahh, ahh, ah-choo! [nervous laugh.]
Awesome! [microphone feedback.]
Don't miss the exciting water scooter regatta this afternoon, presented by ZOOM Fuel.
ZOOM Fuel, the drink that floats your boat.
Yeah.
A race? Our little baby is so torqued, she's sure to win! Uh And everyone will learn about my super biofuel! And they're all gonna want it! And cars will finally be clean, and the world will be saved! [seagull cries.]
What your father means to say is, uh, just have fun out there.
No pressure.
Quick, baby, or we'll miss the registration.
[both whooping.]
What am I gonna do? That thing is gonna flop in front of the whole beach.
Well, at least you won't have to tell your parents what a piece of junk they made! I'm sure they'll get the message when they see hundreds of people laughing at it.
That's exactly what I don't want to happen.
But maybe it doesn't have to.
I could win that race if I had a motor that really motored.
Huh? Oh, no, Boyster! Out of the question! I am such a pushover.
Thanks for doing this, Shelby.
Remember it's for Mom and Dad.
- You know your lines, right? - Let me see.
Ah, yes.
Vroom.
Vroom.
[Boyster laughs.]
[makes engine sounds.]

[chokes, gags.]
[both.]
Huh? [coughs, spits.]
Pardon me.
Off we go! Vroom! Ahh.
[grunting.]
Come on, Shelby! Give it all you've got! OK.
But I'm going to need a spa vacation after this.
- Vroom! - Hurray! [sadly.]
Oh [crowd cheers.]
- That's my friend! - That's my motor! That's my concentrated cabbage juice! Oh, my little baby! I am so proud of you! Mom! I'm not a baby anymore! I was talking to my scooter! I need to check the motor.
- It coughed a little when it started up.
- [gasps.]
Nooo! It's fine.
It was my fault.
- I gave it too much throttle! - I'm gonna fill her up.
No! The gas gauge is still on full.
It must be a pretty efficient machine.
I guess that's no surprise coming from geniuses like you two! [laughs.]
- [both.]
Oh.
- Come on, Mr.
and Mrs.
L.
, we should let our champion rest up for the next race.
[relieved sigh.]
The next race? Yeah.
That was the first heat, Shelby.
We're just getting started! [groans.]
[making engine sounds.]
[musica.]
[all.]
Go, Boyster! Go, Boyster! Go! [making engine sounds.]
[wails.]
[all.]
Yeah! [making engine sounds.]
[all.]
Yeah! [making engine sounds.]
Ohh! [camera clicking.]
[all three whooping.]
You guys rule! You made it to the finals! I'm dead on my feet, and I don't even have feet! My throat is raw from all the engine noises.
Hang in there! Just one more race! Mom and Dad are counting on us! [both laughing.]
I can't go another yard.
I'm finished.
[gasps.]
[grunting.]
Huh? "The drink that floats your boat.
" Here, Shelby.
This'll make you feel better! [slurping.]
"Do not drink more than one can a day".
- That's probably for people, not shells.
- Definitely.
He'll be fine! [yawning.]
I think I'll take a little nap.
Huh? [talking fast.]
right after I swim ten laps around the course! I'm feeling great! Are you feeling great? Who's ready to win the regatta?! - Vroom! - [boys.]
Yes! [crowd cheers.]
How'd you make it this far? Everybody else choke on your cabbage gas?! [laughs.]
- [extremely loud.]
Vroom! - Keep it down.
We can't get caught now.
We're about to win.
Win! Win! Win! Win! - Vroom! - Uh Sounds like something's wrong with your hunk of junk.
You worry about your machine, and I'll worry about mine.
[man.]
Go! [engine sounds.]
[all cheering.]
[makes loud engine sounds.]
Whoa! [laughs.]
Shelby! No! You're going the wrong way! [aggressive engine sounds.]
OK.
[all gasp.]
[screams.]
Huh?! [laughs.]
Huh? [screams.]
[man.]
And the regatta champion is Boyster! [all cheering.]
[continues making engine sounds.]
Shelby! [crashing.]
Boyster! Are you all right?! You bet! - What a race, huh? - [woman.]
Open that door! There's something not right about that scooter.
There's no way it should be able to go that fast.
What?! It's perfectly legal.
- I made it out of recycled parts! - And the fuel is cabbage juice! 100 percent natural! You can even drink it! [all gagging.]
This was a totally fair and square win.
Win! Win! Win! [aggressive roaring.]
Shelby! [both.]
Shelby?! Win! Win! Win! Win! I'll explain later! [nervous chuckle.]
[loud engine sounds.]
Win! Win! Win! Win! Win! Win! Win! [blows raspberry.]
Win! Shelby! Win! Win! [Boyster panting.]
Win! Win! Win! [groans.]
He's too fast for us! And with all the Zoom Fuel you gave him, this could go on all day! Fuel! That's it! [both grunting.]
[stomach rumbles.]
[repeating rapidly.]
Win! Win! Win [grunting.]
[crashing.]
[gas hissing.]
[groans.]
Shelby! I am so sorry! [moans.]
[crowd gasps.]
What, you've never seen a guy hug his scooter before? A big fine, a three month ban from public beaches, and no water scooter competitions for a year.
All things considered, it could have been worse, right? Boyster! Why did you do this? - What were you thinking? - I'm really sorry.
It's just Well, your scooter was kind of lame.
But it meant so much to you and I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
I guess we did put a lot of pressure on you.
On the bright side, we have a whole year to design another scooter! And this time we'll blow everyone out of the water! [both whooping.]
Wow, Mom and Dad never give up! [Shelby.]
Speaking of giving up, I'll thank you to resume my spa treatments now.
[groans.]
Ahh.
I think after a month of this we'll be even.
[Boyster groans.]
