Marvin, Marvin (2012) s01e01 Episode Script

Pilot

1 One, two, three, four, five Marvin, time for game night! Wait for me! - Did you count all those? - Yes! There's 12.
Guys! Well, why is everyone screaming? Because you turned off your human disguise.
Oh! Oops.
Sorry.
So what are we doing? Oh, we're playing a board game.
How about you spin first? Okay.
Marvin, by "Spin," we meant "Spin the Dial.
" Oh! Oh! I love this game! This is my home planet, Klooton.
These are the klerg.
They hate Klooton.
To protect me, my parents sent me away while they stayed to fight the klerg.
Eat it, klerg! I landed on earth and took the form of a human.
At first, I was scared.
Fortunately, I met a very nice family.
Hello, I'm Marvin! - That's how we greet people in Klooton.
- It's very polite.
They agreed to raise me like their own son until the klerg were defeated.
Now I'm living a secret life as a normal american kid.
And you can barely tell I'm different.
Can I have some more cereal? Marvin, you've already eaten six boxes.
How can you still be hungry? I have five stomachs.
But one of them is only used for mating calls.
Oh, I bet that drives those alien girls wild, huh? Not really.
- Mom.
- Hey.
Yeah, sweetie.
Does this outfit say class president? Oh, you look great, hon.
Oh, how's that big campaign speech coming? I finished writing it this morning, - and now all I have to do is memorize it.
- Great! Teri, can I help you with anything with your presidential campaign? Because my schedule is wide open.
Um - Ooh! - Sorry, it's not my fault your human music makes me lose control! Hey, Brianna.
Thanks, but no thanks.
- Morning.
- Morning, Pop-Pop.
My coffee's cold.
Hey, space invader.
Make yourself useful.
I never get tired of that.
Agh! It's hot.
I burned my tongue.
Don't worry, Pop-Pop.
I will cool your tasting organ.
Ooh.
Dad, get Marvin's finger out of your mouth.
Oh, it's so cold.
It's stuck.
So Stuck again.
Agh! - Hey, morning.
- Morning, hon.
Good morning, large-Torsoed paternal humanoid.
Hey, Marvin, you can just call me dad.
Dad Bob.
I have nothing to do all day, so if you get home early, can you tell mom Liz we're going to the library and then just take me to a movie again? That was supposed to be our little secret.
Oh, if you're going to whisper, please speak to my hearing organs.
They're located in what you humans refer to as the Butt.
The movie was supposed to be our secret.
I can't hear you.
Come closer.
- Okay, going to work now.
- All righty, then.
- Here you go.
- Thanks so much.
- Yup.
- Oh, hey, Marvin.
You know those earbuds you borrowed? You can keep those.
Yo, Marvin.
How you doing, my man? I've been practicing my american slang for this very question.
Whatever, keep it on the dl, my brother from another mother.
Peace! Marvin, you're hilarious.
So, small-Torsoed Younger brother humanoid, perhaps later we can play some video games? Oh, dude, one sec.
Hello? Shut up.
Shut up! Okay, seriously, dude, shut up.
Sorry, Marvin, I got a problem with one of my employees.
- Oh, Teri! - Yeah? For good luck, I have made you breakfast like we do on my home planet.
Oh, thanks! But I thought you ate all the cereal.
Exactly.
Bon appetit.
Okay, that's disgusting.
Oh, my speech! - Marvin - Oh, hon.
Well, maybe you can reschedule.
- What am I supposed to tell them? - That an alien threw up on it? Well, I bet no one's ever used that one before.
Ooh! Elect Teri Forman for president.
Forman.
She's your man for president.
You can't spell integrity without Teri.
She's a leader in we need her.
I'm gonna stick to making posters.
I'm Cliff drill.
You know the drill.
Vote for me.
Um, Cliff? Flyers are supposed to have information about what you'll do as president.
People don't want information, - they want Candy bars and pictures of my abs.
- But what if you're elected? Yeah, I plan on starting a recycling program to help reduce our school's carbon footprint.
Well, if this school's footprint's too big, I'll just buy bigger shoes.
Problem solved! Drill, baby, drill! You honestly think that Female voters I'm so gonna lose.
Yes, you are.
But I've got a plan that's gonna turn everything around.
Okay, lay it on me, campaign manager.
Tonight, we dress in black, we sneak into the science lab, and we liberate the rats and the frogs.
How is that gonna help us? It's gonna get us the animal rights vote, including Derek winfeld.
He thinks he's a horse.
We need to do better.
- Think outside the box.
- If I don't win this election, then I won't be able to prove that I'm a Leader.
And if I don't prove I'm a Leader, I will never become editor of the school paper.
Right, and if you don't become editor, then you won't get into journalism school and become a famous news anchor.
Right, and if I don't become a famous news anchor, I will never be able to get us into a party with the cast of twilight.
So winning this election is the only way for us to meet Hot vampires and werewolves! Oh, good.
You're awake.
You seem bored, space case.
Old Pop-Pop's got the cure for THAT: Fireworks.
Illegal fireworks.
Let's set 'em off with your finger.
Huh? Come on.
Pop-Pop, you're going to get me in trouble.
Fine.
Go ahead.
Die of boredom.
Die? But I'm only 580 years old! I'll never get to have my sweet 600.
You're not gonna die.
It's just an expression.
You got to get out of this house, go to high school, use that fifth stomach of yours to meet some girls.
Just don't yack on them.
I'd love to go to school.
But mom Liz and dad Bob said I can't.
So? You're an alien.
Change their minds.
We're home! Oh, jeez.
I got to go.
I want to go to high school.
- Yeah, sure.
- No problem.
- What? - High school? No way, if he comes to my school, it'll be so embarrassing that I'll have to move to another planet.
But I want to go to school, learn new things, meet female humanoids, and spontaneously break into song with my New Friends from the glee club.
Marvin, the instructions your parents sent to earth with you made it crystal clear that keeping your identity a secret is extremely important.
Yeah, if the klerg find out that you're here, they could blow up our entire planet.
Yeah.
Agh! And, Marvin, you're still adjusting to your human form.
High school's hard enough when you're normal.
- Yeah.
- But I can act normal.
Yeah, right.
That was an epic walk.
Murray peed on five trees, two bushes, and a squashed raccoon.
Don't worry, Murray.
I will help you.
- You are welcome, Murray.
- Yes, I agree! We do need more wet food.
I'm not going to high school, am I? - High school? No, no - Obedience school? Boy, you might get a scholarship there.
Hello, my name is Marvin.
I'm new at this educational structure.
Yo, Marvin.
You will be my best friend.
Marvin, I will be your girlfriend.
Dude, what are you doing? Oh! I'm bored at home.
But mom Liz and dad Bob won't let me go to school.
So just go anyway.
I mean, on earth, teenagers do what they want to do.
It's called rebellion.
I want to take part in rebelling-Ion.
Wait, but what happens if mom Liz finds out? She will find out.
But if you go to school and stay out of trouble, you can prove to mom and dad that you can go to school every day.
That's genius, Henry.
I'm going to school.
I'm going to school! I'm living my dream! Whoa! Marvin! What are you doing? You can't do that at school.
I'm sorry.
I just got so excited, my stomachs Made joy bubbles.
I'll figure out a way to sneak you out of the house.
You just get down from there.
Oh, that's easy.
I'm in pain, - but I'm still excited! - Is Marvin okay? He hasn't come down for breakfast.
He's in our room shedding his skin.
It's super gross, and there's slime everywhere, and he kind of looks like a baby snake.
Oh, I should check on him.
No, mom! Uh he said he Really needed his privacy, and I think he's going through like space puberty.
I need to find the alien parenting guide that came attached to his foot.
Good idea.
Psst! Psst! So can I go to school? Yeah, and if mom asks, space puberty.
Okay.
Go deep for Cliff! Boom! Got your vote, right? I'm Cliff Drill.
- And I approve of these abs.
- Hey! A whole wall of my posters disappeared and were replaced by yours.
I can't believe you'd cheat like that.
I don't need to cheat.
I've got awesome mini-Footballs that say "Vote for Cliff.
" They're so cute.
Can you teach me how to throw a spiral Football down.
I'll vote for you.
I like your ideas.
Plus, you've never locked me in my locker and left me there for three days.
Thanks, Ben.
Make sure to get the word out to all your friends.
Are you making fun of me? If I had any friends, someone would have let me out of that locker.
It was cold in there, and all I had to eat was a stick of deodorant.
- No, of course not.
- I was just saying if you did have any friends ooh, that didn't come out right.
Whatwhat she means is that we're totally sensitive to the fact that you don't have any friends at all.
I'm never voting for you.
Hah! Forman can't even get the nerd vote.
Well, that was embarrassing.
Yeah, But the good news is, it can't get worse than this, right? Hi, Teri! I'll vote for you.
Hey! There's that horse kid.
Go see if he'll vote for me.
- On it.
- Thanks, Bri.
What up, dork wad? - What are you doing here? - And don't call me dork wad.
But that's what everyone's been calling me.
- Don't you just love school? - Why are you here? If you're going to whisper, please speak to - I'm not talking to your Butt! - What are you doing here? I'm your classmate at north falls high.
Go, blue bears! Where's your spirit? Let me hear it! Yeah! Okay, Marvin, you need to go home right now.
I can't leave.
I love it here.
I had gym last period.
And we all put on shorts.
And then everyone threw basketballs at me while the teacher filmed it on his cell phone.
And now I'm the star of an Internet video.
Okay, Marvin, you being here will destroy any small chance I have at winning this election.
You need to go.
But I can't go.
If I prove to mom Liz and dad Bob that I can fit in, they'll let me stay here.
Maybe I will play a sport or even become the prom queen.
Maybe.
That's what I'm hoping for.
Fine.
Here's how today goes.
Don't talk to me.
Don't stand near me.
Don't even look at me.
Is that what you wish? Yes! Don't talk to me - Girl who I've never met! I do not know you! Stranger! Danger! Uh Teri Forman for president.
Out of my seat, dweeb.
What up, dork wad? Wow, you're good.
You can sit next to me.
Thank you.
Perhaps we could share a bond of friendship.
Really? My locker combination, just in case.
Okay.
I'm having a really bad day.
So I'm gonna make your life miserable too.
Pop quiz! I'm sorry you are having a bad day, but I'm having the best day ever.
Who are you? Allow me to introduce myself.
Hello! I'm Marvin, the human boy.
Oh, so you're some kind of class clown, Marvin.
Is that it? Me? No, I'm not a clown.
I'm Whose phone is that? Oh, music, why won't you leave me alone? Marvin, stop dancing.
Dancing? I think he's having a seizure.
Someone answer that phone.
Yo! I'm in class.
No, no, I can talk.
Drill.
Hang up.
And, Marvin, you better shape up, or I'm sending you to the principal's Office.
No! Please! I will comply with your demands.
Fine, just give me your last name for my attendance sheet.
My last name is for - Um my last name is Um Marvin.
Marvin Marvin? Wow.
Someone's life is worse than mine.
Psst! Teri! Does that mean your last name is Marvin too? Someone must have seen Cliff steal all my posters.
I think Oliver Chambers did.
But he never says anything.
Our only witness is a mime? Come on! Go see if Oliver will give us a written statement.
What are you doing behind the cushion? I was in science class, trying to pay attention, But the rats in the back wouldn't stop talking to me.
They were all like, "squeak, squeak, squeak.
" And I was like, "squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak.
" - And then they were like - Just tell me what happened! I freed all the lab rats, also two bunnies, five chicks, and an iguana.
And if the science teacher finds out, he's gonna kill me! Teri, you've got to help me! And embarrass myself in front of the whole school? No way! What did you say, Harold? The science teacher's coming? Okay, follow me if you want to live! Come on, I'm serious! This is the last time I'm warning you! Come on! Marvin? Your father and I are here to help you deal with space puberty.
We are gonna get through this together.
So put on your skin.
We are coming in! Keep your eggs out of my brain! Agh! Where's all the slime? Where's Marvin? Henry! I don't know if I'll be able to remain at school.
I do not fit in.
So? No one fits in at high school.
I don't think you understand.
I'm being hunted by a race of evil, intergalactic warriors.
I'm an alien.
Join the club, dude.
What's that, Harold? Cliff Drill stole Teri's posters? Really? Oh, I got to go! Two friends in one day? When it rains, it pours.
Yeah.
There it is! Hey, put down my bag, you freak! These things do not belong to you! You did steal my posters.
- Uh, like you can prove that.
- I can.
I was informed by a laboratory rodent.
A rat? Wait.
I have a real witness.
Oliver! Come on.
Marvin's clearly trying to set me up.
Cliff, no one believes Marvin did it.
Marvin did it, Marvin did it Poor Cliff - Move it, Teri.
- Wait, wait, wait! Marvin May be a little strange, but that doesn't mean he's a liar.
So he's a little different.
But aren't we all a little different? I'm I'm I'm still afraid of the dark.
Uh, the math club kids talk in binary code.
And Derek thinks he's a horse.
- Out of my way, horse boy.
- Stop! Marvin is getting beat up just because he's different.
But different's not bad.
- Yeah! - Different is awesome.
Tell him, Teri! Leave Marvin alone Leave Marvin alone Yeah, leave Marvin alone.
Oh, I'd like to see one of you guys step in to save this freak.
Anyone? Oh, music.
Not now! Marvin, don't fight it.
Just be yourself.
Trust me.
Now, apologize for calling my rat a liar.
Great speech, Teri.
You should run for president.
I am running for president.
Oh! - Then I'll vote for you! - Vote for Teri.
She knows Marvin Marvin.
I think you just saved the election.
Thank you, Marvin.
You are welcome, dork wad.
Where is Marvin? What if he was captured by the klerg? Or Or got so happy that he floated into space? I knew I should have tied something heavy to his foot.
We're home! Marvin! Marvin, where have you been? Oh, where to begin? I went to high school to fit in, but then I learned that no one fits in.
Then I defeated a large-Torsoed boy in an adolescent ritual.
What? He got into a fight.
And he won.
- You won a fight? - Yeah.
That is so cool.
- Are you crazy? - Ow! Marvin, there is no way that you are going back to school.
I mean, your parents asked us to protect you.
You can't protect me by keeping me locked up in the house.
I need to learn to fit in.
Well, listen.
He'll be fine.
Just let him go to school.
I'll keep an eye on him.
Really? 'Cause I kind of thought you hated Ow! - You know what? - It It might be safer at school.
That way he wouldn't have to be here with your dad at home all the time.
That guy's straight-up crazy.
Okay.
All right.
All right, Marvin.
You can go to school.
- But if we hear you caused a klerg invasion, you are toast.
- Thanks! - Oh, God! Oh, God! Okay, easy, boy.
All right.
All right! Happy ending.
Let's order pizza.
Nice try, Henry.
You're grounded.
Do not punish Henry.
I am to blame for this.
Oh, you're grounded too, Marvin.
- Really? - Yeah.
- I'm grounded? - Oh, yeah.
I'm finally a real american teenager.
