We are going to have a pop quiz.
Oh, man.
I didn't study.
So what? Neither did I.
You got to start thinking bigger, Kev.
Studying is a thing of the past.
Huh? This isn't funny, Seth.
It was funny with Homan, but this is bad, Seth.
Here it is.
This test'll be a breeze, Kev.
We shouldn't do this.
Answers.
That's cheating.
So what? It's not like we're gonna get caught.

" Yeah, right.
Well, we've got a great deal Deadly duo, Smashing Sam and Jumping Joe! Knock it off, Jamie.
It's the bomb week.

I want to watch something else.
Jamie, put it down.
Are you crazy? You broke it, Jamie.
Mom, Seth's hogging again.
Seth, give your sister the remote.
Seth, you heard your mother.
Give your sister the remote.
Look, guys, I'm sorry, but sometimes, you just drive me nuts.
Now I hope during this brief time-out you'll chill a little bit.
Look.
Oh, man! I knew something like this was gonna happen.
I'm pressing the play button but, nothing.
Must've broken when it hit the floor.
We got to fix this.
Maybe we can take it to a repair shop.
Kev, this isn't just some ordinary remote.
Let's call the place that you got it from and ask them what to do.
Good idea.
Here it is, Armchair Electronics.
No one's answering.
How could a business not answer the phone? Have you got their address? No, it doesn't say.
Hello? If you have any questions regarding our products it's him Please don't hesitate to call our answer line.
Hello? Or if you prefer, you may visit our showroom at 26040 North Sandburg Place.
Well, this is it.
This can't be right.
"Armchair Electronics.
" I can't stand this anymore.
I got to do something.
What are you gonna do? Whatever it takes.
But you don't know anything about fixing stuff.
I don't care.
I can't just leave them there.
Gives me the creeps.
What if you make it worse? Trust me, how could I make it worse? Hello.
Tony? Never attempt to service the Verona XG-20 Universal Remote Control.
Opening the back of the device is dangerous.
Please consult an authorized dealer.
No, don't hang up.
We tried an authorized dealer but hello? Hello? He hung up again.
I got to fix this thing.
This isn't a good idea, Seth.
Shh! Ah, this must be what's rattling.
Looks like it fits in here.
What was that? I don't know.
Maybe we fixed it.
Here we go.
Oh, no.
Maybe the batteries are low.
Try shaking it.
That always works on our remote.
Well, I'm waiting for an apology.
Oh, I'm sorry, Mom.
Sorry, Jamie.
Don't even think about it.
Oh, my gosh, look at the time.
I'm starving.
Have we had dinner yet? Good to hear your voice again, Dad.
Let's go.
It worked.
Man, that was close.
Could we get rid of this thing now? But I fixed it.
Seth.
All right.
Put it right in the bottom.
There.
What time do they pick up the trash? Not soon enough for me.
Yeah.
See you tomorrow.
See you.
What am I, crazy? Come to papa.
Oh! Hi, Kev.
I thought we threw that thing away last night.
We did.
Then what are you doing with it? Well, I I tried to get rid of it but it kept on magically appearing in my room.
You're lying, Seth.
And not very well.
So what if I am? Leave me alone.
Seth, you've got to get rid of that thing.
It's changed you.
You're right it's changed me.
I'm not a wimp any more.
But it's dangerous.
You almost turned your family into a permanent still life.
I know why you're mad.
'Cause you didn't get to the garbage can first.
Maybe you did.
But you weren't quick enough.
Seth, you're being a jerk.
Now give me the remote.
No.
Give it to me.
You can't have it.
Seth Try that again and you'll really be sorry, friend.
You've misused your gift, even after repeated warnings.
This is your last chance.
Remember, the consequences are severe.
Quit buggin' me.
Give me the remote.
No! Give me the remote, Seth.
Back off.
Kevin, back off.
Give it to me! Back off, Kevin.
Seth, don't do it! Hello? Hello? Hello! Oh, no.
"Battery low.
" We hope you enjoy your new Verona XG-20 Universal Remote Control.
