Grim
That was a great idea kicking Nergal in the shin. I wonder why I didn't think of that?
That's because you have no brain. Speaking of no brain, where's Billy?
[talking to a cardboard cutout of Mandy] Gee, Mandy, it sure was a great idea kicking Nergal in the shin like that. [many hours later] Hey, did you do something to your hair?
Grim
[scanning Billy] Just as I suspected. His brain is caught in a weird juju vortex, and his good luck matrix is in the red. This could only mean one thing: Catastrophe Snail!
Grim
Right in your noodle.
But how did it get there?
Grim
It must have been in that restaurant when Billy spilled the salt. I told him to throw salt over his shoulder to PREVENT bad luck, but Billy panicked. He reached for the salt, but he grabbed the pepper. That's when the snail must have appeared on Billy's shoulder. Salt would've have fizzled that slimeball, but Billy threw pepper. And at that time, the whole place was sneezing. So, that snail slipped right into Billy's ear with nobody noticing a ting. Once the Catastrophe Snail gets in your head, he plugs his shell right into brain. And once he's plugged in, mon, he'll be reprogramming your mind to have nothing but bad luck only. Dig it?
CSCatastrophe Snail
I love my job.
Grim
Yeah, mon. And if we don't pull him out soon... I guess it's fatal.
[screaming] He's messing with my head!
So, we were thinking of setting you free.
Grim
Really?
Yeah. All you gotta do is say you're a little girl.
Grim
I'm... a little girl.
I'm not sure I bought it.
Yeah! Are you a PRETTY girl?
Grim
[high-pitched, feminine voice] I'm very pretty! Look at me! I'm QUEEN pretty! Aren't boys just so dreamy? I can talk on the phone for hours about nothing!
Grim
Let's brush my hair! And paint my toes!
...you can stop. We were only kidding.
Grim
Oh, it's FUN to accessorize! Let's all ride some magical pink ponies! I'll name mine Sparkles Fantastic!
[As a child, Grim is about to become the Grim Reaper, as per his mother's wishes]
Grim
I don't want to be the Grim Reaper. I just want to sing and Willy will!
GSGrim's Dad
Enough! You'll do what your mother tells you. Singing is for birds and sissies.
CWCave Witch
[seeing Grim as a child, on his first day of the Grim Reaper] I have been expecting you.
Grim
M'name is Grimmy and I've come to reap your immortal soul.
CWCave Witch
I know who you are, for I have forseen it IN MY FIRE! I have seen YOURS as well, a terrible future: a future where you are controlled by two mere children for all eternity...
[Billy is terrified at the thought of visiting the optician]
NOOO! He'll steal my soul!
Grim
Well, if he doesn't, I get second dibs.
[From Billy's point of view, Grim and Mandy appear to be drawn in anime style]
彼 の 目 は まだ きちがい だ。[His eyes are still wrong]
Grim
Hmm.
I can't understand a thing you're saying! [Grim zaps his eyes again. Billy now sees Grim and mandy in a child's cartoon] Mandy? Grim?!
Grim
[happy voice] I finally think he's back to normal. [Child Mandy giggles. Billy's eyes turn angry and show Grim in each one]
[roars] Oh, so you're laughing at me?! Gimme that! [snatches Grim's scythe] You're trying to mess with me, aren't ya, Grim? Well, I'm not gonna letcha! Ya hear?! I'm not gonna letcha!
Grim
I assure you, your suspicions are completely unfounded. Mandy and I are only here to help you.
[babbles crazily; his teeth rattle] Stay away from my eyes! [He swings the scythe at them]
Grim
Billy, this is madness! [Billy chases them, swinging the scythe at them]
Grim
Picnic? Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No. You remember what happened last time, don't you?
[flashback to Billy, Grim and Mandy at a picnic in the park]
Please pass the egg salad.
SSasquatch
[popping out of the bushes] RAGGLE FRAGGLE!
[grabs Billy and runs away]
[Grim and Mandy go back to eating, flashback ends]
Yeah, that was pretty special. Wanna see my emotional scars?
[coming into the room] What happened here? Did the refrigerator throw up?
Grim
Billy want us to go on a picnic.
No way, José. You remember what happened last time?
[shows the same flashback of Billy, Grim and Mandy having a picnic]
[coming into the room] Have you crazy kids been flashing back in here?
Grim
Yah. We've been trying to talk Billy out of going on a picnic.
A picnic? Oh, honey! No! No! You remember what happened last time!
[shows the same flashback again]
[coming into the room] What is this, a party?
Dad! Talk some sense into your son! He wants to go on a... picnic!
After what happened last time? You all remember that, right?
[goes to flashback again, only this time, it shows Harold putting on a sasquatch suit behind some bushes]
[off screen] Please pass the egg salad.
[leaps out of the bushes] RAGGLE FRAGGLE!
[is heard running off with Billy]
[flashback ends]
[Laughs] I say we let the boy go!
[Grim and Mandy are washing a car.]
Grim
I wonder how Billy's picnic is going.
[Billy flies past them really fast]
Grim
That answers one question, yet raises so many others...
Oh, Grim. The TV wants to talk to you.
Grim
TV?
[Boogie, still disguised as the television, is sitting on the couch holding a glass of wine]
Grim
[perplexed] Hello, TV...
You're gonna love shed building, son. Even a complete and total nincompoop can do it.
Grim
Like you?
Yeah, like you. Now where was I gonna build that shed? It's all about location. [starts yodeling loudly]!
Grim
What the heck are you doing?!
Checking the acoustics [continues]!
Grim
I'm going home.
That's it! [drops material at Grim] The best location is always closest to the house.
