EREnid and Rad
Ta-da! (Both panting, chuckling nervously)
(groans) I give it a 7.5.
Now, if you'll excuse me.
Mr. Gar, wait! Hey, I, uh, saw someone in the magazine aisle for like 20 minutes.
Mm. Ha! Here it is. But I don't think it's gonna fit, K.O. Bleh!
But we got to get that pic!
If you want to read monster truck books for free, then go to the library!
CWCrinkly Wrinkly
Eee! (screams)
I will not have no tightwads in no store of mine. No, sir. Where was I? Oh, yes. Back to my perfect office.
Mr. Gar! Mr. Gar! I... forgot.. how to... mop? [grabs a mop] Please, oh, please, teach me how. [He scrapes the floor with the mop.]
JRJoff, A Real Magic Skeleton, Nick Army, Punching Judy, and Crinkly Wrinkly
Oh!
My dad’s car! [Runs off to it]
MJMega Jethro
I am Mega-Jethro.
Bye. [goes back in the store, unamused]
See, I told you. Jethro’s a way-more complicated enemy than you thought.
Pfft, child’s play. It’s Jethro. He’s still simple, and you’re still simple. [K.O. is angry at him] I’m so sure of it, I’ll tag along with you 'cause the only thing I love more than being proved right is proving other people wrong.
MJMega Jethro
I am Mega-Jethro.
Jethro, don’t do this! You’ve got to stop!
MJMega Jethro
I am Mega-Jethro.
Oh, sorry. Mega-Jeth-- Mega-Jethro, don’t do this! You’ve got to stop!
Looks like our normal approach isn't working.
She's too unpredictable. It's like fighting a wild animal.
(gasps) That's it! In times of need, the hero's noble animal companion always sweeps in to win the day! (whistles) Baby Teeth, come forth!
Hmm. Well...maybe we could become animals.
"Become" animals? How would we do that?
It's simple. You just need to be bitten by a were-animal.
KOK.O., Rad, and Enid
Dendy!
What were you doing in my van...?
(shows hologram explaining her speech) A were-animal's fangs secrete a special were-enzyme that activates the bitten's inner beast.
(chuckles) I think you mean, "Where is animal", K.O.
(laughs, snorts) Yeah, my bad.
(looking at Crinkly Wrinkly asleep on a bench a few feet away) There animal! Let's get bit.
RKRad and K.O.
(nod) Hmm!
KOK.O., Rad, and Enid
Come on! Bite us! Bite us! Bite us! Bite us!
CWCrinkly Wrinkly
(wakes up, startled) Whaaat?! (wheezes)
Look, I know it sounds strange, but I promise you it's for a good reason-- Owww! (she lifts her arm and Crinkly Wrinkly is biting down on it) Ugh! Get off me, you dusty little creep!
CWCrinkly Wrinkly
Why, thank ya, sonny! (bites K.O. on the nose)
CWCrinkly Wrinkly
(lands on bottom) Ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! I've been wanting to do that for ages!
Wait, you wanted to bite us?!
You weren't supposed to like it!
(rubs her arm in disgust) Ugh! Blek!
CWCrinkly Wrinkly
Ho Ho Ho! Enjoy your cuuuuurse!
Your garbage curse didn't even work, you dank old pillowcase!!!
(points to her) Enid...you have a new ponytail! On your butt!
(notices) Oh! Cute! But, I don't think it's a ponytail. It's more of a--
(groans, grunts) A bunny! (wiggles her toes) It must be because I'm so... (jumps up in the air and clicks her heels) quick on my feet!
Whoa, nice! If your inner animal is fast, then mine must be something totally macho. Like a classic werewolf! (starts growing fur and claws; sprouts a tail) Yeah! I can feel it! (rips shirt off, laughs, then gets a collar with a bell on it) Oh. A cat? Nice. Must be because I'm so... (licks his hand and arm, then slicks back his hair) cleaaan.
Wow! Wow, wow, wow! You guys look so cool! (sprouts a dog's tail) Ah! I can't wait to find out what I'm gonna be!
Of course he's a puppy! (pets K.O. on his head as he grows dog ears and fur) It's perfect, because he's such a good boy!
(starts petting him too) Yeah, who's a good boy?!
EREnid and Rad
Yes, you are!
(remembering) Oh, right. Mikayla. Time to use our animal powers to put this monkey business to an end.
(while pinned to the ground by Mikayla) Ohhh, she's a monkey? I thought she was some kind of jaguar...guitar...lizard...
(as she zooms by) Whoooo cares?
Well, I'm a little curious.
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
(sighs) Here we are again, fearing for our lives, framing-- [Grabs the helmet] gah-- junk. I like hanging out with you all the time, but don’t you ever feel… trapped?
Speak for yourself! Despite the couple wackos, this place rules! Plus, it’s like the easiest job in the world!
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
Is it, though?
Yeah! Everything’s easy with you around! Now, let’s get to work… after I take a nap.
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
Huh? [Brandon hops on the counter with newspapers to nap.] Now? [Brandon snores] But we gotta frame Mad Sam’s helmet! I just don’t get paid enough for any of this! Look at him… so peaceful. Not a care in the world. Must be nice to be so willfully complacent. Huh?
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
"25 more pennies an hour"? This could be just what I need to get out of this funk. Watching Brandon sleep can be fun sometimes, but maybe it’s time for me to move up in the world! Sorry, Brandon, but I’ve gotta get that job!
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
Well, let’s see. Special skills. Uh… Framing proficien--Ugh, no, that’s dumb. Does magic count as a special skill? [A clang sound is heard.] Maybe I should-- [Another clang sound is heard.] Wha-- [And another. RMS' head is enveloped in purple flames.] Ooh, my geez, why?! What are you doing?!
I’m trying to get Mad Sam’s helmet in this display case. [Slams the helmet]
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
Ugh! [Brandon slams again] You’re driving me nuts! Brandon, my dude, I love you, but I’m so glad I’m applying for a new job.
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
Yep! And with the extra 25 pennies a week, it’ll only take me, like… 2,000 years to become a millionaire! And once I have that much money, I’ll be able to do the things I always dreamed of.
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
Ahh!
So you’re just gonna turn your back on all the cool stuff we do here? Like when we duct-taped each other to the walls? Or that time I took all your bones and hid them around the store.
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
I didn’t like when you did that! I need my bones.
Well, what about the time we thought we were level 100 and fought Big Darrell. [Imagines fighting Big Darrell]
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
That was K.O..
Okay, well, still… our jobs are great! Think about how sweet our future will be, working here together, forever. [Echos] Forever… forever… forever.
CWCrinkly Wrinkly and Brandon
Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo!
RMA Real Magic Skeleton
(shudders) [He checks his phone to see Drupe messaging him.] Mm. Come on. Drupe picked up some sour candy.
Oh, whoo! Whoo, whoo, whoo!
