Abby[stops laughing]: Wait. What's this? [Abby grabs a small paper with a disclaimer and reads it with a magnifying glass] ”Clones not actual size.”
AbbyIf Little Otis is anything like big Otis, there's only one thing that will lure him away from a live TV appearance, and I know just what that thing is.
AbbyI knew it. Otis is in trouble. [Abby grabs a cat carrier] I just hope my backup plan works. [Abby opens the cat carrier and pulls out a mini version of herself out of the cat carrier] Okay, Little Abby, just like we talked about. [Abby puts Little Abby on a window]
Little AbbyRight. I'm on it.
AbbyEasy. I knew he'd be crazy about her the same way big Otis is crazy about me.
Little AbbyPucker up, sugar. [Little Abby and Little Otis share a kiss]
[The animals investigate the new machine the farmer got]
The Quick Fryer Mark IV. Hmm.
AbbyThat's a weird name for a stereo.
Now, now, now, watch and learn, okay? The CDs go in here. [opens the lid] Then you crank up the volume right here. [turns a knob, causing flames to erupt from the machine]
And then, you run away and scream.
[They do just that]
AAAAH!!! WHAT'S HAPPENING?! WHAT'S HAPPENING?! WHAT'S HAPPENING?!
Okay, so, not a sound system.
[sniffs] Mmm! Something smells scrumptious! [realizing] I mean, disturbing! I knew that thing was evil! E-e-e-evil!
Stop that.
AbbyOtis, whether we wanna admit it or not, the farmer has purchased-- a barbecue grill.
[The animals murmur with concern]
Barbecue grill?
Yay, I love kebabs! [Bessy looks at him] Sorry.
I love kebabs too, but not if I know the kebab-ee.
Now, the Farmer we've loved is gone for good, but we can still end his carnivorous reign of terror!
Mmm, pass.
Pass.
AbbyPass.
Big pass. Huge pass.
That's pathetic. Did Luke Skywalker pass when he had to blow up the Death Star? Did Tarzan pass when Jane was threatened by the Chimp King? Did that guy... pass... when he had to do the thing... in the place with those people?! You bet he didn't! NOW, WHO'S WITH ME?!
[The animals are still unsure.]
[gripping his own neck, using ventriloquism with his other hoof; high-pitched voice] Get in the cart or the cow gets it.
[The other animals, except Abby, beg.]
Don't hurt him! Please don't hurt him!
Otis, we are so sick of this stupid game of yours!
Yeah, I hope you're faster than a speeding butt-whoopin'!
Whoa, citizens no likey the Cowman.
AbbyNow, you listen, Otis, your idea to fight evil around the barnyard by becoming a superhero is just plain--
Dumb! D-U-M-N-7-L, dumb!
Dude, there's no "L" in "dumb-7".
AbbyOh, being superheroes was awesome, Otis. Can we do it again?
Of course, Abby. With great cow power comes great cow responsibility.
Great, more cows in spandex.
Everyone, I thought you'd like to know that, well, how can I put this? I quit!
[The animals gasp.]
You can't quit! What do you mean, you quit?
Oh, look, Grammy's pies used to be about friendship and all the good times we had together. Now, it's all about, "Money, money, money! What can I buy, what can I buy?"
And?
Well, look around! Duke's a mummy dog, Freddy's a complete whackjob--
BIRTHDAY!
The restaurant is sucking the fun out of our lives, you know? And I'm through with it, I'm gone, goodbye! [leaves the barn]
AbbyWell, so much for buying my own Italian soccer team.
[Moments later, Bingo finishes fixing the rocket]
What do you think, Otis? She's all repaired and ready to go.
Whoa, no way! Otis can't fly this thing; he can barely drive a stick.
Pip, relax. It's just a simulated flight. I mean, you know, Bingo wouldn't put his top test cow in any kind of danger.
Simulated. Yeah, you took these words right out of my mouth. [takes a control device from his spacesuit] Oh, oh, oh, and by the way, one little thing. It's not! [presses a button, trapping Otis and Pip inside the rocket]
What? Hey, what's going on? We're trapped!
That's right, cud boy, I'm sending you into orbit. Of course, there's no biggie for someone with your vast space experience.
Ground Control to Major Monkey. He lied!
We were nice to you. We said you could stay with us and some of us licked you. Why are you doing this?
Because I spent my whole life taking orders from humans. And I'm not about to start taking them from a cow. Any-moo, ten, nine, other numbers, blast off! [presses another button on the control device and the rocket lifts off, causing Otis and Pip to scream] [hooting] That's the last time we're ever going to hear from Otis the Daring Space Cow.
[Abby and the others run over to him]
AbbyBingo, what's going on?
What happened to Otis and Pip?
I sent your leader and his little-rat friend on a one-way trip. You're all taking orders from me now.
Alright, Abby, you ready for your first driving lesson?
AbbyI sure am.
Good. Now, the most important thing you wanna remember-
AbbyWhat's this button do? [presses the button]
Well, those are the windshield wipers.
AbbyOoh! What's this? [honks the horn]
[irritated] Shhh, Mrs. Beady will hear you!
Can you crank the A/C? My thighs are stickin' to the seat.
AbbyHey, what if I punch this real hard?
Don't-!
[Abby punches the dashboard, causing the airbag to inflate]
AAAH! The car's inflating its giant stink sack!
Hang on, I got it. [deflates the bag]
Okay, Otis, she's hotwired and ready to go.
Nice job, buddy. Alright, Abby. Now put 'er in reverse, and give 'er some gas.
AbbyYou got it! I'll try not to hit Mrs. Beady.
See, that's great. You're already thinking defensively. That's the first sign of a good--
MRS. BEADY?!!
[writing personal advertisement for the Farmer] Let's see now...Gloomy farmer seeking anyone with pulse. Hmm...We should hot it up a little.
Write he's rich. The ladies love cheddar.
[writing] Rich farmer.
AbbyAnd he got to have muscles!
[writing] Rich, beefcakey farmer.
Yes, but don't write farmer! Write [writing] exploding lion tamer.
AbbyEven more bulky! And write that he has a pony! [writing] Has a pony...
Okay, I will read it to you. Reflag 7-star number sign glare...Man, I wish we had fingers!
I can do it. [jumps on the keyboard] There, what do you think?
[reading] Wealthy, agricultural mogul with body of a Teutonic god wants to share his heart with you.
[Everybody likes it]
