Aquabats! Transcript- Mysterious Egg

Previously on the Aquabats! Super Show!:
Many of these appear to be out takes or just them clowning around.

Somewhere… deep in the forest…

Jimmy: My sensors detect that the beast should be right around -there! (pointing at a large shaggy monster with metal tentacles)
MCBC: Oh I got this! (MCBC charges the monster and immediately a tentacle slices across his shirt, making him scream and almost break into tears. Each Aquabat attacks it in turn and fails)
Eaglebones: There’s no way to stop this thing.
Jimmy: Everyone stand back. (aiming finger lasers)
Monster: Aww poopoo!
(Jimmy shoots lasers which destroy the monster)
Ricky: You just blew that guy up?
Eaglebones: Jimmy…that was hardcore.
Jimmy: It was? But that thing was dangerous. I thought we were trying to destroy it.
Crash: Well I was just gonna punch him a couple a times.
MCBC: WE were gonna take it back to the zoo.
Ricky: That’s pretty cold, Jimmy.
Jimmy: I am not cold. I am a loving, caring robotic protector of mankind.
MCBC: (slightly stiff, robotic sounding voice) And it is a good thing you are programmed to tell jokes too. (laughs) Ricky, why doncha give our park ranger homie a call and let him know the area is clear.
Jimmy: Not quite yet, Commander. There’s something else.
MCBC: Oh yeah? Something else you’re gonna blow up?
Jimmy: There in that patch of trees.
MCBC: (points) Go!
Eaglebones: (as Crash is about to take a step) Crash stop! Look. (Peering into a tiny nest with eggs) It’s a cartooooon!

It’s a cartoon:
Narrator: When we last left the Aquabats, Bat Commander chased a puppy down a moon hole and came face to face with this guy. Captured by Mooncheese! Meanwhile the other Aquabats were surrounded by- Space bees! Space bees!
(Song ensues about space bees)
Crash: Hey, my peanuts.
(Ricky takes the jar of peanuts Crash has been eating)
Narrator: Hold on Crash. Ricky fitness has those bees well in hand.
Ricky: (scooping bees into empty peanut jar) Commander I did it! Commander?
Eaglebones: Where’s the commander?
Jimmy: The commander is missing.
Narrator: On the contrary! He’s right under your feet.
Mooncheese: You fell for my trap.
MCBC: Where’s that puppy?!
Mooncheese: There is no puppy, Commander. I took that from your mind as bait. And now you are going to help me destroy earth.
MCBC: Me? Help you? (Blows raspberries with tongue)
Mooncheese: You have no choice, Commander. (Lifts tea to bring himself some using mind power)
Narrator: Telepathic Tea time?
Mooncheese: You see I built the moon to be a giant laser. I brought it here to destroy the earth. I need the mind energy you control to complete the laser’s power.
(The Aquabats fall in a pile in front of Mooncheese and MCBC, apparently having found the crater entrance)
Ricky: Commander!
Narrator: Watch out Aquabats!
Mooncheese: (mentally trapping them with a force field) Welcome to mind jail, from which there is no escape.
Ricky: Mind jail? (Laughs) We can still move around. (Starts dancing)
Mooncheese: Quiet!
Jimmy: You won’t get away with this.
Narrator: Or will he?
MCBC: NO!
Narrate: Will Mooncheese use the Commander’s mind to help destroy the earth? And will the Aquabats ever stop dancing?

(Back to the forest)
Jimmy: No no no. It wasn’t a cartoon I was sensing. It was this. (Reveals a large orange egg)
Crash: That’s a weird looking rock.
MCBC: It could be an egg. Jimmy, Scan it and see if it’s an egg.
Jimmy: It’s definitely an egg.
MCBC: Did you scan it?
Jimmy: No.
MCBC: Scan it!
Jimmy: (exasperated) It’s still an egg. And I detect there’s life inside.
Eaglebones: Then don’t blow it up, robot.
(They all laugh again)
Jimmy: (to the egg) Do not worry little one. Jimmy’s here.

Back inside the battletram with the egg, everyone waits for it to hatch while painting, knitting, snacking, and practicing guitar.
MCBC: What could possibly be in that egg?
Crash: Ahhhh, I’m tired of waiting. Why don’t we just smash it open?
MCBC: Easy big fella. I know this may seem hard to believe, but smashing things isn’t always the answer. Still anything could be in that egg. But what?

Crash: (thought voice) Anything? Maybe it’s a little buddy…
(Crash’s fantasy is a monkey smashing things with him. At the end of the sequence the monkey’s eyes glow a creepy red and startle Crash out of his daydream.)

MCBC: (thought voice) It could be the raddest thing in the world.
(The Commander’s fantasy is the egg hatching into a baby version of himself that he then tosses into the air playfully until his cell phone interrupts him.) Hey homie. Hey I gotta call you back I’m playing with baby me right now. I know it IS the raddest thing in the world. Oh, here I come, I gotta call you back. Later! (The daydream ends in similar fashion to Crash’s with glowing creepy red eyes on Baby MCBC)

Ricky: (thought voice) Mmm, a giant egg full of protein!
(Ricky’s fantasy is himself devouring the cooked egg. At the end of the sequence, the yolk turns into a face, startling Ricky out of his thoughts.)

Eaglebones: (thought voice) Maybe, it could be a dance partner.
(Eaglebones’ fantasy has the egg hatching first legs, then a leotard and eagle’s head. She dances with him before staring at him with the same scary red eyes the others saw. This shocks Eaglebones to the point he actually looks ill.)

Jimmy: (thought voice) A robot can only dream.
(Jimmy’s fantasy involves him taking care of the egg, unhatched, wearing a bonnet and diaper. In his sequence he sings about robot moms and wanting a family.)

After Jimmy’s fantasy the egg begins to crack and pink liquid pours out, followed by a large ugly chick with intense red eyes. Jimmy manages to pin a baby bonnet on it before it tosses him across the room.
Jimmy: (undaunted) Look everyone- he’s hatched!

Faux-mercial:
Handi gel moisturizer

The giant baby chick continues wrecking the lab by flailing around.
Ricky: Eaglebones, blast him with your guitar.
Jimmy: No!
(The baby chick runs outside after Eaglebones inadvertently opens the outside door. They all rush outside after it.)
Eaglebones: What’s your problem Jimmy? I had a clear shot.
MCBC: Yeah, so why did you let him go?
Jimmy: I couldn’t let you harm, my baby.
Others: Your baby!!
Jimmy: Yes. Run Jimmy Jr, run!

Bat cartoon:
Lil’ bat, shipwrecked on a desert island, tries to open a coconut and fails repeatedly until it seemingly cracks of its own accord.

MCBC: (through walkie-talkie) Come in Ricky. Are you there? Do you read me?
Ricky: Commander. There’s no sign of that freaky bird thing.
MCBC: Keep looking Ricky. That thing is dangerous- we have to find that monster.
Jimmy: Monster? How dare you! Perhaps it is you who is the monster.
MCBC: Jimmy what are you taking about?
Jimmy: He’s just a baby.
Ricky: Ayyy! I found him. Not my face! Ouch! He’s trying to eat my braces!
Eaglebones: We have a lock. We triangulated Ricky’s coordinates and we have his location.
Crash: And I painted a picture. It’s a rainbow!

(Aquabats show up and attack Jimmy Jr with punches and kicks; it uses its beak. Jimmy is the exception; he hangs back. Crash tries throwing a pine cone at it but Jimmy warns him.)
Jimmy: Jimmy Jr, watch out!
MCBC: Robot, why are you trying to protect this freak?
Jimmy: Freak? Jimmy Jr and I are family.
Eaglebones: Jimmy Jr? We’re your family!
MCBC: Jimmy, unscramble your robot brain for a second! That thing isn’t your baby it’s trying to kill us! We’re not taking this one to the zoo! Shoot it!
Others: (still under attack) Jimmy! Blow it up! Shoot it!
(Jimmy fires finger missles in the air in anguish, then runs off.)
MCBC: Jimmy no! Jimmy, no! Well I guess this it guys. It’s been one wild ride
Crash: I’ll see you guys in heaven.
Ricky: I’ve been thinking. Can pancakes talk in heaven?
Eaglebones: (matter-of-fact) Ricky, we’ve had this conversation. Pancakes can’t talk.
(Jimmy Jr advances dangerously close.)
MCBC: Hey look, Jimmy’s back!
Jimmy: (to regular sized chicken) Take good care of my baby. I’m sorry Jimmy Jr. I know now that I wasn’t cut out to be a mother. But maybe this random chicken I found on a nearby farm is.
(Jimmy Jr follows the chicken away slowly.)
MCBC: Maybe you ARE ready to be a mother Jimmy. Part of being a parent is knowing when to let your children go.

“Learning and growing” moment:
During the learning and growing moment all the Aquabats stand still and smile while the words “learning and growing appear on the screen beneath them in rainbow outline.

MCBC: Come on guys let’s go home.
Jimmy: (to Jimmy Jr) AWK!
Jimmy Jr: Screeeee!
