Erky Perky (2006) s01e01 Episode Script

Where Are We?

Crazy!
Life was good
on Hot Dog Stand ♪
For two bugs
with food demands ♪
Had our last meal
one sunny day ♪
They got caught
up and swept away ♪
Into Kitchen's
where they landed ♪
We're so hungry ♪
And we're stranded ♪
Finding food is
quite a mission ♪
Other bugs are competition ♪
Now just one question ♪
How do we find our
way back home? ♪
- Psst.
Perky!
The coast is clear.
Perky?
Hey!
I said we're all clear.
Perky!
Okay.
Enough messing around.
(grunting)
If I can just,
there it is, got you.
Uh oh!
- Ow!
Ow, ow, ow, ow.
- Couldn't you hear
me calling you?
- Obviously not!
Now look at me.
I'm going to lean to
one side as I walk.
- Oh come on.
Your antenna will grow back.
- Not for hours.
In the meantime
I'm going to be dizzy,
and out of balance and
Hey, where are we?
- Exactly what I want to
know, my yellow bellied buddy.
- Where's Hot Dog Stand?
- One minute we're enjoying
a perfectly good meal,
the next thing you
know we've been
- Kidnapped!
- And dumped in this, this
- [Perky] Clean
Sterile..
- Lemon-scented, terrible
fresh smelling place.
- With
- [Both] No food.
(screaming)
- Ah, see?
What did I tell you?
- Oh, you're
right, look at that.
- Just one wee moment
and back it grew.
- It just kinda pops
out all by itself.
(screams)
- Intruder alert!
Intruder alert!
I must tell Margaret.
Intruders!
We've got intruders in Kitchen!
- [Margaret] You've
been attracting flies again
haven't you, Sajuica?
- Oh, Aunt Margaret,
its so boring in Kitchen.
What's wrong with
a few new faces?
- Well, there's not
enough food to go round.
Besides this is my domain
and I decide who's in
and who's out.
(buzzing)
- Intruders!
Intruders!
We've got intruders!
We've got intruders in Kitchen.
- Intruders?
What kind of intruders?
These had better not be
friends of yours, Sajuica.
- Hello?
Strangers!
(sniffing)
- I'm just so, so, so hungry!
- There's got to be some
food around here somewhere.
(creaking)
What was that?
- What?
(slams)
- That!
Okay, all Clear.
- Did you hear me?
I've lost my
Who are you?
- Oh hello!
I'm Perky and this is
my good friend Erky.
- You wouldn't know
how we can get back
to Hot Dog Stand, would ya?
- I say if a dog
can't stand the heat
he better get back to
I can't find my teeth.
- It's the perfect time to
test out my new bug trap.
Well, the first step
is to draw intruders
to a central location.
This, (straining) attracts them.
(thuds)
(screams)
The intruders take the bait
not realizing
they are biting into
nothing more than
a fridge magnet.
(laughs malevolently)
- What a stupid idea.
Who would fall for that?
(gagging)
- Do you at least
know where we can get
a quick bite before we leave?
- Where?
A good question.
If I could just remember
- Come on old timer.
What will it take to
loosen the memory bank?
- You're right, a warm
sponge bath will do the trick.
- Oh yes, Erky is
very good at those.
- Gee, thanks.
- Done deal.
- Okay, okay.
Clearly the only way we're
going to get gramps here
to show us where the food is,
is for me to give him a bath.
While you go off
and find us a snack.
Go on.
- On my own?
- Of course, on your own.
- But I can't!
Erky, don't leave me!
I'm doomed.
I'm doomed.
I'm doomed.
(water splashing)
- Don't forget to
scrub my arm-pits!
A clean arm-pit is next to
(snoring)
(whistling tunelessly)
Oh wow! (chuckles)
A corner.
I love corners.
Oh, who am I kidding?
There's nothing here.
This place is spotless.
(whistles)
Hey?
- Hi there.
- Oh hi.
- Got a name?
- Oh yeah, I'm Perky!
- That you are.
Where you from Perky?
- I'm from Hot Dog Stand.
In the city.
I'm here with my friend Erky.
He's busy giving an old
guy a bath right now so
- Oh I do like a city bug.
So
Sophisticated.
And yellow!
- Oh wow.
Is that food?
'Cause I've been looking
everywhere for something to eat
and Erky said
- Be my guest.
- Thank you!
Mm. (gobbling)
Hey!
What's your name?
- Sajuica!
And you owe me, Perky.
- I owe you?
(sighs)
I've never owed anyone before.
(screams)
- Who are you?
- I
- What are you doing in Kitchen?
- I
- You're here to steal our food!
- I
- I thought so!
- I told you!
He's hungry and dangerous.
- Now look here.
I may be hungry but--
- Not another word.
- Put me down.
(screams)
- Where do you think you're
going with my masseuse?
- Moldy Van Oldy!
You have a masseuse?
- That's right,
and put him down.
- Where did you find a
masseuse? (chuckles nervously)
- None of your business.
Back to work, blue boy.
(groans)
- He's lying, Margaret.
He's a food thief.
(laughing)
- Do I look like I
need feeding to you?
- And he has an accomplice!
- Oh come on, why would
I need an accomplice?
- Look what I
found for you, Erky.
- Ah ha
- Oh, no, no, no, no.
It's not how it looks.
- Liars!
You're stealing food from
Kitchen and now you will pay.
- Pay?
That sounds uncomfortable.
- Meet Albert.
Cecil!
Explain!
- Margaret has a rather special
way of punishing intruders.
She has them fashioned
into leather goods!
(both scream)
- Enough chit-chat.
Let's do it!
- There's been a big mistake.
(crying)
- I don't want to be a handbag!
(sobs)
- We want to leave
this miserable place.
- Hmm.
This one might even
make an overnight bag.
- Help!
- Erky!
- We just want back to
our dear Hot Dog Stand.
- Hot dogs!
- Ooo.
The grease.
- The meat.
- The five day old bread roll.
- Oh just the thought
makes me quiver.
- Help!
Uh oh.
(screams)
- Mind if I borrow your tub?
I'll save you, Erky!
Hold on, Erky!
- Who are you and what
have you done with my teeth?
- You come from Hot Dog Stand?
- Yes.
- Sure do.
- I thought it was just a myth.
Spill the beans!
- [Erky] On Hot Dog
Stand, all day, every day
is one long feast.
- [Perky] The sauces!
The onions!
- [Both] The dogs!
And best of all, you
don't have to do a thing.
- Take us there!
- We don't know how to--
- Ahhh.
We don't know how to
find food for the journey?
- Food?
Not a problem.
We have our supplies.
- Well, how about I towel down.
Get myself respectable
and then we can discuss
our plans to return home, say,
over a small feast.
- Splendid idea.
- I'll get cracking
on it right away.
- Okay, we'll see
you up at our place
just above the range hood.
Soon.
- Phew!
We got out of that
mess, eh Perky?
- But we don't know how to
get back to Hot Dog Stand, Erky.
- [Erky] All we need
is for them to believe
we know how to get back.
- [Perky] Hey!
That's clever.
- Hi there Perky.
You ready to take
me to the city?
- The city?
- You owe me, remember?
- He owes you?
I leave you alone
for five minutes
and you're already in debt.
- No, no, no.
I can explain, Erky.
- How can a bug with no
brain being doing deals?
- [Perky] Me no brain?
You nearly had us
turned into handbags.
- [Erky] Oh, relax.
- [Perky] How can I relax?
I keep thinking of that bug
she turned into an accessory.
- [Erky] Well come
to think of it Perky,
she could make a whole
yellow luggage set out of you.
(chuckles)
- [Perky] How can you
even joke about that, Erky?
