Coop and Cami Ask the World (2018) s01e03 Episode Script

Would You Wrather Put a Sock in It?

1 Okay, Wrather-heads.
Today, we're debating that age-old question.
Would you rather eat a disgusting mixture of old leftovers, or take a bath in it? And the audience agrees with Ollie.
I'm shampooing with mashed potatoes.
Has anyone seen my violin bow? What?! Ollie, are you using my bow for a backscratcher? Scratcher? Yes.
Back? No.
Look who's making a rare appearance on "Would You Wrather?" Cami and Cooper: Charlotte Cam! Charlotte Cam! - Charlotte Cam! - Stop it! Turn it off! Every time I'm on your show, you embarrass me.
I don't wanna look stupid! Hello.
Oh, yay.
There's a kid in my sink.
This counts as my bath tonight, right? I'm too tired to say "no.
" Show's over.
Turn that camera off.
Later, Wrather-heads! [groans.]
I forgot to call the handyman about the squeaky step! Can someone please remind me to look at the reminder list? I could really use some extra help with chores, especially this week.
I'm juggling four open houses.
Well, maybe instead of selfishly messing around with stupid cameras, us kids could all help out more.
Um, I'm willing to cook dinner tomorrow.
You two could weigh in at any time now.
Fine! Cooper and I will shovel the driveway.
There's no snow.
I can't control the weather, Charlotte! Please no fighting.
A little help would be great.
Charlotte, thank you for making dinner tomorrow.
Cooper? You could take a look at that squeaky step.
Cami, maybe rake the backyard? And you-- I give up.
You sound just like my teacher.
Okay, I'm going to bed.
Right after I finish the other 35 chores that need to get done.
Uh, wait, what about dinner tonight? It's already made.
Ollie's sitting in it.
[theme music playing.]
Would you rather lose your phone Or give up pizza for a month Share your diary with the world Or have to eat it for your lunch Sing out of tune to your friends Or trip and fall into your crush Shave your head, paint it red Or use your dog's toothbrush We need a little Q&A Come on Wrather-heads, play along Would you rather do this Would you rather do this Or would you rather do that Would you rather do that Don't matter what we do We're doing it with you I'd rather do that Ask the world Would you rather do this Would you rather do this Or would you rather just dance Or would you rather just dance No matter what we do We're doing it with you I'd rather do that Ask the world! Would you rather do that? [hammering.]
[wood thumping.]
Do you hear that? Ollie's mouth breathing? It's why I left the den.
No.
The silence.
The squeaky step is now just a step.
Nice! I didn't know you could fix stuff.
Me neither! Who knew I'm a natural handyman like Dad? I found his old tools and took a shot! I'm guessing the belt was Dad's too.
Yep.
Mom's taking me to the hardware store to pick up some more supplies.
In the meantime, enjoy the stairs! Compliments of Sir Fix-A-Lot.
Next thing you should fix is that nickname! Cooper! [angrily.]
Sir Fix-A-Lot! [grunting.]
- [sighs.]
- [phone beeps.]
How do you fix a broken step? And a bleeding shin? What's for dinner? It smells like [sniffs.]
It just smells.
I promised Mom I'd make dinner, and then it occurred to me that I have no idea what I'm doing.
Why would you promise to make dinner if you don't know how to cook? Because I'm a sweet and loving person! You probably started with something too complicated.
What'd ya make? Mac and cheese.
My bath tasted better, and I farted in it.
Jenna: How's it going down there, honey? Great! Stay upstairs and relax! Everything's under control! Nothing's under control.
All I wanted to do was help Mom.
I guess I'll just order a pizza and tell her I'm a complete failure.
Failures get pizza? My report card's going back on the fridge! Charlotte, put down the phone.
Sea salt, chopping board, paring knife.
Do exactly as I say, ask no questions, and I can save this meal.
[chopping vigorously.]
- How did you learn to-- - That's a question! I need butter, two eggs, olive oil and a tasting spoon.
Hustle! After four summers of French cooking camp, Freddie here became quite the chef.
Wipe! You went to cooking camp? I know what you're thinking.
Just when you thought I couldn't get any cooler.
Oh yeah, that's definitely what we were thinking! Are you sure you can do this? I can make all your dreams come true.
All I need is a hot pan and a spatula.
Hot pan! Hot pan! And I'll also require an oven mitt.
So? What do you guys think? - Delicious.
- So good! I can't wait to take a bath in it.
Thank you, but everyone should know that Freddie is the one-- Charlotte, I am so impressed.
The flavors, the presentation.
You really stepped up.
What were you saying about Fred? He, uh laid out the silverware.
Forks go on the left, genius.
Thanks for the tip.
And thank you, Charlotte, for sharing your gift with the world.
What are you talking about? - Fred's the one who-- - [spoon clatters.]
You dropped your spoon! Pick it up! You can keep a secret, right? Guess so.
No one's ever asked me to keep one before.
Great.
No one needs to know Fred cooked this, okay? Got it.
What's the secret? That's the secret! Right! Pretty sure Fred might know.
By the way Charlotte's not the only superstar today.
Cooper fixed the squeaky step.
[snickers.]
I'm sorry.
Cooper fixed it? Cami's right.
I didn't fix the step.
Sir Fix-A-Lot did! You know, it's nice having something in common with Dad.
When I picked up that hammer and got to work, it's like I'm walking in his footsteps.
Dad would be proud.
Yes, he would.
You know, Mom, I put a list together of some other things I can fix.
Or we could call a handyman! I'd hate for you to hurt your shin.
Badly.
If you can do all these, that would be great.
And if you could do the one thing I asked you to do, rake the lawn, that would also be great.
Oh, this list is as good as done.
I've already taken care of that wobbly bench.
- Wobbly bench? [screams.]
- [wood cracking.]
[phone beeps.]
How do you fix a broken bench? And butt? The chef certainly got a lot of credit tonight.
I know, I know! I wanted to give you credit, but I just got caught up in all the praise and things just got away from me.
It's okay.
If roles were reversed, I know you'd do the same for me.
Uh-huh.
Charlotte, thanks again for the wonderful meal.
You've made my incredibly hectic week run that much smoother.
Any chance you could cook again tomorrow, my little gourmet? "Gourmet.
" That's quite the compliment.
Fred, please! This is Charlotte's moment! I'd be glad to make dinner tomorrow.
Really? Are you sure you're available? Charlotte, you're a savior.
And Fred, if you're joining us for dinner tomorrow-- I'm sorry, when you join us for dinner tomorrow, dry a plate, wipe a counter.
Just do something.
Please, please, please help me again! I can't do this without you.
I'll do it, but only if I get complete control over the kitchen and menu.
I'll get whatever you need.
It's not what I need! It's what inspires me.
The passion involved in preparation is just as important as the ingredients themselves.
When my mentor, the great Chef Lajoie, first taught me how to make a reduction sauce-- This story could use some reduction sauce.
- Pardon me? - You're the best.
[grunting.]
Cool! You bang your head against the desk, too! No! No! Something's bugging me, and I gotta tell someone.
But it's kind of a secret.
[sighs.]
Let's get it over with.
What are you doing down there? This is where secrets are told.
So you know how Cooper's been fixing things around the house? Sure.
He's Sir Fix-A-Lot! No, he's a disaster! He thinks he's just like Dad fixing everything, but he just makes them worse! For the last couple days, I've been the one fixing everything.
[door closes.]
He's coming! You can't tell anyone, okay? It would crush him! I can handle it.
Hey, Ollie.
[screams.]
What's wrong with him? I stopped asking that a while ago.
Check it out! I'm halfway done with my list! You did all this?! I mean [sweetly.]
You did all this! Me and my buds.
Carl, Howard, and LaShondra.
I named my tools, too.
Look! I'm glad you like fixing things, but have you thought about maybe watching some online handyman tutorials to perfect your trade? Tutorials? Did Dad need tutorials? No, because we're naturals.
It's in our DNA.
It's who we are! [glass shatters.]
"Glue mirror.
" Coop there's a problem I don't have an answer for.
Then ask the Wrather-heads.
They always know what to do.
That's a great idea! It's actually not my problem.
It's a friend's.
Uh, mind if I livestream now? Hammer away! See what I did there? Yes.
Hey, Wrather-heads! Uh, friend of mine has a question she needs a quick response to.
Here goes.
Would you rather spend all your precious time covering for a friend's mistakes, or tell the truth and hurt their feelings? It's close.
But the Wrather-heads are leaning towards "Hurt your friend's feelings.
" Yes! Thank you, Wrather-heads.
Thank you so much! I'm surprised by the vote.
If you have a really good reason to protect your friend's feelings, don't you have to do it? [exhales sharply.]
And you've just swung the vote to "Cover for your friend's mistakes.
" You know why? 'Cause I don't just fix things out here.
I fix them in here.
I'm outta here.
By the way, I fixed the ceiling fan.
Check it out.
This sucker's never gone so fast.
It's like a helicopter.
Shin! Butt! I'm running out of body parts! [clattering.]
[sighs.]
Okay, Ollie, ceiling fan's reattached.
Why does Cooper think he can fix everything with tape and glue?! It worked for the mirror.
What are you doing? I was just admiring the ceiling fan you fixed.
Great job! Thanks! I also fixed the ladder.
And I'm done! There's my handyman.
Hey, sweetie, I wanna introduce you to someone.
Cami, rake.
Rake, Cami.
Cooper, maybe you've got a fix for Cami's work ethic.
No! She's the one who's been doing-- You're not bathing in the sink.
I'm calling this a win.
[exhales.]
I'm so exhausted! From what? Watching me work? The rest of us are crushing it, and it kinda seems like you got a case of the lazies.
Now if it's not too much effort, can you hand me my wrench? They're pliers! Sure, they are.
That's it! I can't do this anymore! I won't tell everyone I've been cleaning up after him, but I am done helping! From now on, he can fail on his own, right? Ollie, you can take the sock out of your mouth now.
I know.
[giggling.]
Is this a bad time? Just take a bite, and give your taste buds a message from me.
"You're welcome.
" Hmm.
I think you mean "Mmm!" I kinda mean, "Eh.
" I liked yesterday's better.
Excuse me?! It's a little much.
We're more of a "things you can eat out of a bucket" kind of family.
You know what my mom does when she messes up? "Messes up"?! She throws in a can of corn! [horrified.]
"A can of c-corn"? I feel light-headed.
This meal is a five-star opus, - and you dare-- - [squirting.]
My masterpiece! What? I'm helping! Ketchup makes everything taste better.
No! No! Stay with me! Stay with me! Time of death 5:12 PM.
Don't go in the backyard.
I'm working on a big surprise, and I don't wanna spoil it for anyone.
Don't worry.
Whatever you're fixing, I want you to get all the credit.
That's how it works! When you do something all by yourself, people thank you.
Is it? Is that how it works? Hey, Freddie.
Is that ketchup on your collar? Everything goes better with ketchup.
Am I right? [growls.]
Is there anything worse than not being appreciated? [sighs.]
I hear ya.
It'd be nice if just once, someone could recognize talent and effort when they see it! You are too kind.
I agree.
That's my problem.
Wait.
What are you talking about? What are you talking about? - Nothing.
- Me neither.
You know, this is probably what it'll be like when we're married.
The two of us sitting around, complaining about our days.
Fred, no.
You're right.
We'll never complain.
Cooper: Hey! Look who decided to rake the leaves! What? Where are you? Up here! Remember the tree house your father started to build? Well, guess who just finished it! Not Sir Fix-A-Lot! Bingo! Guys! I'm serious.
Get down now! No, you get up.
Let's celebrate your brother's big moment! I'm good.
Yeah, hurry up! I've got a dinner to plate! That's chef talk.
I see what's going on.
You do? You're jealous! Jealous of all the great work Cooper's done.
You should be proud of your brother's accomplishments! I'm proud! I'm proud! If you all come down now, I will buy him a trophy! No! You get up here, young lady, so we can celebrate this fun family moment! Careful on that first rung of the ladder.
I ran outta gum.
That's the least of my worries.
[creaking.]
[whimpers.]
Could our family get any bigger? I'm working on it! Check out these two babies.
It's not only a tree house, [straining.]
it's a work-out room.
- [grunting.]
- [wood creaking.]
- [heavy thud.]
- [Cami screams.]
Oh, I'm sorry.
I haven't even offered you anything from the fully-stocked fridge.
I'll take whatever's heaviest.
- [grunts.]
- [heavy thud, splat.]
Whoops.
I don't know about you guys, but I feel like I had my family moment.
Shall we? Is it just me, or are we starting to sway? [creaking ominously.]
[whimpering.]
Cool! It feels like we're on a boat.
Yeah.
The Titanic.
Lunch bucket eaters! I had to start all over, and they can't even show up on time? Maybe I won't marry into this family.
I take that back! Okay.
Party's over.
Now, can we go back down? Not until I get a picture! Everybody bunch together! Pictures are always better when you're spread out! Evenly! Get in here! Cooper and Charlotte, switch sides.
Ollie, jump on Cooper's back.
[exclaims.]
[phone dings.]
Great! Let's go! Oh, shoot! I was in Video.
Let's do it again! [strained.]
Just take the picture! [camera shutter clicks.]
Aw, that's a keeper! Yeah, it's fantastic! Let's go! I gotta admit, it's pretty cool that you finished Dad's project.
Know what's even cooler? As a tribute to Dad, I thought I'd entertain you all, by attempting one of his other hobbies.
Irish Step Dancing.
You have got to be kidding me! Family, give me a beat.
- [rhythmic clapping.]
- [creaking.]
I can't take this anymore! Cooper's a fraud! Everything he thinks he's fixed, he's just made worse! I'm the one who's been fixing all his bad work! [sighs.]
Wow.
She really is jealous.
It's true! Tell 'em, Ollie! There's so many secrets! I-- I can't keep them straight! - [creaking.]
- [screaming.]
[splat.]
Oh, right! Cooper's a disaster! Cami fixed everything.
So one little wall fell down.
Still, this place is solid! I worked my fingers to the bone with this wrench! Those are pliers! Sure, they are.
- [clattering.]
- [screaming.]
I think I got a handle on this.
Everybody out! Everybody out! [screams.]
Not a good time, Fred! Out of the way! Not until you hear me out! I did all the cooking! I was fine giving Charlotte all the credit, till she started picking apart my menu with her unsophisticated palate! I mean, ketchup-- Out of the way! I'm really sorry about lying.
It wasn't fair to you.
I just didn't want the compliments to end.
Can you forgive me? Of course, sweetie.
Thanks, Mom.
That was easy.
Was it? Was it easy? Anyone wanna help me pick capers out of my hair? Ollie: Yum! You should have this.
I'm glad at least one of us is handy like Dad.
I'm sorry I was such a jerk.
How about you rake the lawn and we'll call it even? Cami.
You did an amazing thing trying to cover for your brother.
Actually, all of you were amazing.
You went above and beyond helping out.
And I'm truly sorry for saying you were jealous of Cooper.
But the next time the whole family's doing an Irish jig in a death trap, say something sooner.
- You okay? - Yeah.
You wanna know something? Truth is, your dad was horrible at fixing stuff.
I had to call in handymen all the time to fix the things he messed up.
So, in a way you're exactly like him.
[loud clattering.]
Hey, look! Dad's part stayed up.
Yep.
Just like him.
Fred: What's for lunch? A peace offering.
I made sandwiches.
Great.
Ketchup sandwiches! You're not very good at apologies.
Mmm! Fresh ketchup! What's the matter? Did someone tell you another secret? Worse.
I saw things.
[Irish dance music playing.]
Your dad wasn't the only one with great dance moves! Neither one of us can fix that.
