Oh, what's the point of having a state-of-the-art laboratory if it won't help you prove Yolkians are evil?
[Goddard plays a recording of King Goobot's voice]
[through recorder] Good people of Earth, there's no cause for alarm. We come in peace.
Hey, good idea, Goddard. If we scan Goobot's words through your lie-detector, we can see if he's telling the truth. Hit it, boy! [Goddard scans Goobot's words on his lie-detector drive and the screen displays "False"] Oh, no! They're just as evil as ever! Only this time they've come down to get us. Come on, we've gotta warn the others! [exits his clubhouse and runs to the back door, finding a note] What's this? Let's see. "Dear Jimmy, we went to the park to see the giant egg. Love, Mom and Dad." Giant egg? [gasps in horror] POULTRA!
I'm worried about Jimmy, Hugh. He's alienated everyone in town with all this talk of evil Yolkians.
D'oh, you know boys. It's probably just a phase, like…collecting bugs or eating soup with your hands. I hear Jimbo's over this whole "evil" Yolkian thing by now.
[runs into the kitchen] Mom, Dad, the Yolkians are planning on feeding the entire town to Poultra at today's picnic!
[spits out his drink] I stand corrected.
What are you talking about Jimmy?
They're transporting Poultra's water dish down from deep space. That means Poultra's not far behind! Whatever you do, don't go to the picnic today.
We're still going, right?
Okay, that concludes the boring and annoying portion of the program. Our next act…
[runs up on the stage and takes the microphone out of Libby's hand] Wait! I think Jimmy's telling the truth!
JLJimmy and Libby
You do?
Yes! While I have no idea how the Yolkians could possibly have gotten into Jimmy's lab… Well, the point is, we owe Jimmy! Who saved us when hostile pants were on the loose in the whole city? Who repelled the giant flaming meteor headed straight for town? Who risked his life to shrink Miss Fowl down to size when she was 50 feet tall? Okay, I know. All of those things were Neutron's fault in the first place, but he still risked his life to save us! The least we owe him is our trust!
You know, the annoying blonde girl has a point.
MMan
Eh, she usually hates Jimmy.
Well, Jimmy did save me from being a giant freak woman.
Give it up for Jimmy! [the crowd cheers for him] We believe in you, Jimmy!
Now, wait just a minute. I'm not believing a word Jimmy says until I have some decent credible evidence. [Poultra roars in distance] Works for me.
[The townspeople start to run but a Yolkian pushes a button, closing the gates, trapping them]
Sweet muffins, we're trapped!
[Poultra's water dish is released from under the stage]
[as the Yolkians release Poultra's water dish] Hey, look! Jimmy's wrong again. The nice Yolkians built us a swimming pool.
Hugh, that's Poultra's water dish!
Neutron, if there were ever a time to put that big, freak brain to work, it's now!
OK! OK! Think, think, think… [tries to think of Carl's sippy chicken and the burp-powered jetpack, but it was too late] I CAN'T DO IT! [crying] CINDY, YOU GOTTA HELP ME! I'M SORRY I WAS LEADER! I'LL NEVER GET US OUTTA HERE! [screams loudly] HELP!
[slaps Jimmy in the face] Get a grip, Neutron! We still have time to focus somehow… I think. First things first! Estevez, you come with me! We gotta distract Poultra together! Folfax, Wheezer, and Neutron! Keep that monster busy!
If Dad competes, we lose for sure. Goddard, options. "Accept your father's limitations." Nah, too mature. "Pretend you're sick." I'm no quitter. "Cheat." Hmm…cheating would be dishonest, but I'm far too blinded by my desire to destroy Cindy to care. To the lab!
[Goddard's screen displays "Here we go again."]
Now, remember, son - there's no "I" in "team," you know what I mean?
You mean we should sublimate our differences for the good of our combined effort?
What? No, no, I mean there's no letter "i" in the word "team." There's never a wrong time for a spelling lesson, son!
