So, today's challenge is for each group
to make a healthy, delicious pie.
And when you're done,
I'll taste it and see who's best.
Are you ready? Go!
Come on, what are we waiting for?
Um, but shouldn't we be thinking about
what kind of pie we're going to concoct,
create I mean, make?
Nah, thinking just slows you down.
For once, I'm with Mickey.
How hard can it be?
Check it out. Nothin' but bowl. [laughs]
Oh!
Unh!
[sniffs]
Whoa! What happened here?
Well, um, we
What happened is, we finished first.
Go, team! [laughs]
Yeah!
It's not a race, Mickey.
The important thing is how it tastes.
Aah! Ooh! I'm going to postpone
judging until tomorrow!
[groans] I don't feel so good!
[all groaning] Oh.
[Bernadette humming]
Hey, honey.
Ben, did something happen at school?
Ugh. We had a cooking lesson
and the teacher hated our dish.
Oh, I'm sure she didn't hate it.
We put lots of good things in
but it turned out kind of disgusting.
Oh! My goodness.
Uh, Benny, what recipe did you use?
Oh, that's what we needed. A recipe!
Anyway, now we have to do it over.
Well, why don't I show you
an easy pie recipe?
Um, let's start with some fruit.
What's this pie called?
I call it my Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch.
[chuckles]

I come running to you
I'm tied to your apron strings ♪
And there's nothing that I can do ♪
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ♪
Yeah, yeah ♪
A-ha! Yeah. [chuckles]
Yo, wassup with the pie we made yesterday?
Uh, you mean apart from making
Ms. Hernandez want to throw up?
[sighs]
I'll take you through the recipe.
First, we need a little sugar.
Mom said not too much.
Oh, this has the sugar.
[Mickey humming]
And now we add honey.
Mom did say not too much of that, either.
[chuckling]
Whoop whoop! [laughs]
And the crowd goes wild.
Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch!
Best pie in class. [chuckles]
There's no way you're gonna beat us
with that thing! Give it here.
No, it's for Ms. Hernandez, too.
Whoa!
There's a party goin' on in my mouth.

Ben, where is your pie?
I was looking forward to trying it.
Um, didn't come out so good.
Oh, gotcha, okay.
I'll give you one more day.
But you have to
have it in to me by tomorrow.
[student laughs]
[all sigh]
Hey, that pie was awesome.
Thanks, Hunter. It was my own recipe.
I mean, mostly.
It's my birthday tomorrow,
and I want you to make enough pies
so I can hand 'em out to everyone, 'kay?
Everyone? Uh, that's kind of imposs
-We can't do that many.
-No problem.
Cool. Catch you tomorrow.
Oh, are you nuts?
What were you thinking?
Hey, Hunter's like the coolest cat
in the whole school.
You can't say no to him.
But how are we gonna make
that many pies, Mickey?
Chillax, okay? I've got an idea.
Ta-da! Dancing Machine's a robot,
and robot can make
all kinds of stuff, right?
Uh, small problem.
He's a car-making robot,
not a pie-making one.
So? Come on, Benny, do your thing.
ABC, easy as one, two, three.
Whoa!
Hey, Dancing. We need your help.
What's cooking, Benja-matic?
We gotta make a few pies.
-Not a few, a few dozen.
-Think you can help?
Hot jam!
I think I can!
Dance this way. [chuckles]
Dance this way.
Are you sure you know
how to do this, Dancing Machine?
Not exactly, but I make cars
from sunup to quitting time,
so making pies should be a snap! Ha ha!
[machine buzzes]
This is so gonna work.
[Dancing Machine grunting]
Uh, Ben? Do you think
Dancing Machine knows the recipe?
Trust me, brothers and sisters.
Just hang loose and stay cool.
Dancing Machine! Stop! Stop!
Can't stop until it's quitting time!
-It's quitting time!
-It's quitting time!
[whistle sounding]
Wow, that day went fast.
Oh, brother. Now we got twice
as many pies as we needed.
What are we going to do with them all?
You saw those kids putting them away.
Trust me, it's not a problem.
Whoa, you actually did it.
I was kinda joking, you know.
Oh, great. Now you tell us.
Anyway, since you made 'em,
I guess it's party time.
Dig in, everyone.
Ooh!
[singing] Ooh, sugar pie, honey bunch ♪
You know that I love you ♪
I can't help myself
I love you and nobody else ♪

Ooh, ooh! ♪
See? [laughs]
I told you everything would work out.
[groaning]
Uh, you sure about that?
[all groaning]
Hey, watch your belly, Stephanie!
Watch your own stomach, Brad.
[grunting]
What's gotten into everybody?
It's all Benjamin's fault. He made us eat
an excessive number of pies.
Yeah, they were so good, it was
it was impossible to stop. Oof!
Um, I find that hard to believe.
Mmm. Ben, Angie and Mickey,
this pie tastes so good.
You have to tell me
how you made it so delicious.
First, we added just a little sugar.
Then we added some more.
Then we just poured the whole bag in.
[sighs] Well in that case,
I'm going to have to give you a fail.
-[all] Huh?
-Fail?
But you said it was good.
This is a tasty pie, but you were supposed
to make it healthy, too. Right, class?
[all groaning]
Ms. Hernandez said
she'll change our grade
if we make a pie that's more, um, healthy?
So not too much sugar, huh?
Yeah, we saw what happens.
[chuckles] It's not pretty.
Okay, I got it. Let's get cookin'.
[school bell rings]
May we present, the tastiest
and healthiest pie you have ever eaten.
It's got a crazy amount
of vegetables in it. Crazy!
Plus, just a little sugar and honey.
Mmm! Tasty and healthy.
I don't know how you did it, but A-plus!
-Yay!
-[all chuckling]
That was supposed to be us.
Healthy and tasty? Nobody could beat that!
So okay, I guess nobody wants one, then.
