Bucket & Skinner's Epic Adventures (2011) s01e04 Episode Script

Bucket, something has happened.
Are you sitting down? Are you okay? Oh, I'm better than okay.
I haven't been this excited since I invented toast.
You were in the zone that day, bro.
What's up? Casa flapjack introduced a new pancake syrup.
One day only.
Tell me everything! - It's mango orange.
- I'm listening.
First it taste like mango then it taste like orange.
Then mango, then, boom, orange! - And then - Okay, got it.
I cannot believe I missed out.
Don't worry, I dipped my hoodie string in it.
So you can slurp it up.
Ew.
Disgusting.
Oh, wait, that's the string that fell in my fish tank.
Bucket, Skinner, we have a situation.
Mango orange? We know.
Up top! So I just back your standardized test scores, And I have to say they are shocking.
How shocking? "I spit up my coffee" shocking.
But the test was rigged.
I have low blood sugar.
The sun was in my eyes.
And I took the entire test wearing boxing gloves.
What's done is done.
As far as your test scores are concerned, You boys are geniuses.
Huh? That can't be right.
It's true.
Report to classroom 1019.
The gifted program.
Dude, we're gonna get gifts! Please be clown shoes.
Please be clown shoes! I wake up, get in motion get me to the ocean, here we go it's all about the sunshine and the current ride all the girls that walk by, hello you know that when the storm rolls in that's when big waves really begin no worries, bro.
♪ here we go again ♪ hey! Hey! ♪ life is just a curl, and the summer never ends ♪ here we go again hey! Hey! you know it's always epic when I'm hanging with my friends ohh-oh-ohh here we go again I don't get it.
How did we end up in the gifted program? Unless there was a mix-up.
Remember when we took the test? This test is impossible.
I'm hungry.
Oh.
Oh, my bad.
Sorry.
Put your test in the envelope with your name on it.
Okay, we're not stupid.
I'm hungry.
Well, I guess we're not geniuses.
Bucket, what did you have for breakfast this morning? Toast.
You're welcome.
Where did you get those? The lost and found.
They make things pretty blurry.
But I figure I'm a brain, I should look the part.
I'm outraged! How could this happen? Dude, this mango orange controversy is hitting everyone.
I'm talking about Mr.
Wagner giving me a "b" On my kola bear paper.
Sorry, Piper, we'd love to stay.
And engage you in smart talk and stuff, But my associate Bucket and I.
Are on our way to the gifted program.
Pardon? Didn't you hear? We're special.
No, I get that.
We don't really belong there.
We might belong there.
You don't know.
My great-uncle thaddeus went to Africa To live with the apes, And everyone said that he didn't belong, Yet he lived with those majestic creatures for five hours.
Then they ate him.
Yeah, I'm just gonna head in.
And sort out this mix-up with the teacher.
Good.
Because the thought of you discussing theorems.
And getting out of school early every day to free think.
Is almost funny.
Wait, what is this about getting out early? Gifted students get to leave school at noon.
It's their time to think.
They can do whatever they want.
Even surf? I guess, As long as your free thinking while you do it.
Even surf? Yes, were you not just Forgive me, my sweet.
It's not you, it's this "b".
I don't want you to see me like this.
Skinner, while everyone else is stuck in school all afternoon We're catching waves at the beach.
We're so gonna be geniuses.
Hello.
Greetings, smart people.
Oh, sorry, dude, my bad.
Knock it.
Skinner, come on.
These geniuses are shy And really skinny.
I see our new brilliant minds have joined us and just in time.
We were in the middle of discussing.
Supersymmetric quantum theorems.
Supersymmetric quantum theorems, loving it! Great, Bucket.
You seem quite familiar with this area.
Would you share with us your thoughts.
On supersymmetric quantum mathematics? Um Bucket? Dude, you're gonna do great.
Remember, be confident.
We're geniuses.
I'm over here.
Bucket, please, don't be shy.
Supersymmetric quantum theorems.
Well, uh, My feeling is that type of math is kind of If I may? Skinner, no.
What my colleague is trying to say.
About supersymmetric quantum theorems is Well, that they're way too complicated and stuff.
I mean, come on, it calls itself super? Cocky much? I'm not following.
Okay, I can dudumb it down for you.
It's the super crunchy taco.
You can't get crunchier than crunchy.
It's just crunchy! Bam! So what you're saying is that the redundancy.
Actually contradicts the very nature of the theorem.
As it applies to implied ratios? Okay.
Absolutely brilliant! What just happened? Not sure but I think we're going surfing, bro.
Seriously? Mr.
Wagner, we need to talk.
I see you haven't been returning my calls.
Piper, I'm not changing your grade.
Look.
You obviously weren't.
In the right state of mind when you gave me a "b".
So man up, give me my "a", And everybody walks out of here.
Under their own power.
I'm gonna eat my enchilada now.
And your intimidating glares.
Are not going to frighten me, young lady.
Please don't leave me alone with her.
Okay, look, I know you're disappointed, But I stand by my decision.
Oh, you'll sta.
.
In a hamburger joint wearing a paper hat.
And asking, "you want fries with that?" Because your teaching days are numbered.
Piper! What did mom and dad said about intimidating teachers? Look at you, this is kindergarten all over again.
What? We're just a couple of chums having a friendly chat.
Right, Mr.
W? We'll see you later, Mr.
Wagner.
Sorry.
Why are you messing with him? Mr.
Wagner is a good teacher.
Just leave it alone.
You got a "b".
There's no shame in that.
Really? I'll remember that.
And quote it back to you 10 years from now.
When you're cleaning my pool.
You can't even swim.
That's how rich I'm gonna be! Dude, I never thought I say it, But how awesome is school? It's pretty much the best thing ever.
But wait, aren't we supposed to free thinking? Oh, yeah.
Okay, let's do our homework.
Done.
Extra credit.
Aloe in the house! And he sticks the landing.
Gold medal for being awesome.
Fact! Oh, Aloe, where have you been the last couple of hours? Duh.
I've been school.
Where were you? Oh, we were pursuing our education too on the waves.
Skinner and I have recently been accepted into the gifted program.
Wait, you two bone heads are in the genius class? "affirmatative".
As long as we think about more junk, Taco action, surfing, Both of us squeezing in a big shirt.
And pretending we're a two-headed monster.
That was supposed to be a secret.
The thought of two surfing all day and being happy.
Actually makes my skin crawl.
Luckily I have lotion with Aloe.
Name reference.
I'm everywhere.
Whatever, Aloe.
I'm finding our conversation a little elementary.
Fact.
You can't say fact.
Fact is Aloe's phrase.
Tells people I'm saying something factual in nature.
Really, guys, uncool.
I'm so gonna expose you two As the non-geniuses you really are.
And that is a "factimus prime".
Yeah.
That just happened.
Deal with it.
Aloe out.
I mean, is it embarrassing to be called a genius? Sure.
But it comes with being brilliant.
Shoot.
I want to leave a tip.
What's 15% of 9 bucks? It varies.
Got to go.
Hey, Piper.
Who's your friend? Well, if by friend you mean blood thirsty shark, This Donny depeico.
He's only the number-one lawyer in the city.
Number-one lawyer.
Where did you hear that? I read it off the bus bench.
Nice! Unemployment money well spent.
Ooh.
You hired an attorney? Yes.
I'm fighting this "b" All the way to the top.
Once I get Wagner in front of the disciplinary board, I unleash my secret weapon, the donny-nator.
I'm stuck! I'm stuck! I'm stuck.
You try finding a lawyer for five bucks an hour.
Piper, Things aren't always gonna go your way in life.
You need to learn how to accept imperfection.
How is it we're even sisters? Believe me, I looked into it.
It's legit.
I just won't lay down for people, kel, Because unlike you I'm not a softy.
Oh, really? Aren't you the one who sleeps with a Teddy bear? Mr.
Wigglesworth? Please, he got tossed years ago.
Whatever.
I'm no softy.
Puppies in leg casts.
Their little legs all hopping around.
That doesn't bother me at all.
It's okay.
The world needs weaklings.
I'm not weak.
I'm strong.
Of course you are, 'cause you're a big girl.
They can't even lift their leg to make wee-wee.
Shh.
Let it out.
Oh, no, Aloe.
Wait, stop.
Ms.
Emerson, don't believe a word he saying.
He's lying.
Bucket, don't be so modest.
It's okay when students complement you.
Yeah, I was just telling your teacher.
About that cool waste powered engine you guys designed.
Yeah.
That's a good one.
A waste powered combustion engine? That's amazing! Thank you.
It's no biggie.
These guys are just too modest.
Hey, isn't the annual science fair coming up? That's right.
You guys have to enter your engine.
It will be the center piece of our whole show.
What a fantastic idea.
Every one, this year's science fair.
Will feature a waste powered combustion engine.
Built by Bucket and Skinner.
This is so exciting! Thank you.
Thank you, smart people.
So how's our garbage engine coming along? So far it's just a really noisy trash can.
Great.
Not great.
If we don't get this thing working, We'll be kicked out of genius class.
No more mid-day surfing.
I can't go back to that life! "hey, Bucket.
Hey, Skinner," Is what I would say if I liked you guys, but I don't.
Whoa.
What is that funk? That, Aloe, is the smell of the future.
And old cheese and wet cardboard Of the future.
So we all agree that your future is going to stink.
Ha! Word play.
Count it.
He's very hard to follow.
Good news.
Thanks to my buds on the student council, The science fair is now a mandatory event.
Every one in school is gonna get to watch you fail! Not every one.
Sally beaverton.
Is visiting Israel with her grandma.
Didn't see that one coming, did you? Sorry, she got back from her trip late last night.
Oh, snappy! Say what? We're not failing, Aloe.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I got a machine to fine tune.
So you shopping for flip-flops? Actually I was told that these were sandals.
Sandals have a strap on the back.
You win this round, Skinner.
Oh, good.
The "explody" part works.
Dude, you okay? Did you lose any fingers? No.
Good.
Then it's just your eyebrows.
My eyebrows are gone! Slow down.
Where's the last place you remember having them? On my head! I'm a freak.
I'm a monster.
I can't do this anymore.
I'm done.
First of all, I'm digging this look.
Secondly, we can't quit.
This genius class is our destiny.
As a wise man once said, "we are forbidden to interfere with human history.
" Wow.
Who said that? Superman's dad.
And then the planet blew up.
Skinner, listen.
It was a good ride, but it's over.
The fact is we're not geniuses.
Exhibit a.
Dude, the school day ends for us at noon.
We can't walk away from that.
But the whole school is going to be at the science fair.
And I know that you have this amazing ability.
To not care what everyone thinks of you, But I don't want to be humiliated.
We can figure this out together.
Have some faith.
We're Bucket and Skinner.
We got this.
All right, I'll have faith.
I'm in.
Bro, I won't let us fail.
Oh, now let me hook you up.
And that is why I feel that not only should I have my grade changed to an "a", But Mr.
Wagner should be removed from his teaching position, Have his drivers license revoked, And be placed in a home.
For the simple.
Thank you.
Boo-yah.
My hiccups are gone.
So if no one has any further questions I have a few questions.
Kelly, what do you think you're doing? Acting on Mr.
Wagner's behalf.
I like a chance to cross-examine the plaintiff.
Kelly, well, I think it's adorable.
You marched in here wearing mom's pantsuit.
Don't embarrass yourself.
Oh, I don't plan to.
Okay, you want to dance? Let's dance.
Two words.
Bring it.
Oh, it's all ready been brought.
Fine.
Good good.
Fine.
Overruled.
Sustained.
You can't handle the truth.
Oh, man.
I call Piper to the stand.
Now, Peckinpaw, When you received your paper back from Mr.
Wagner, You were upset because you didn't receive an "a".
Yes, he gave me a b b A "b"? I can't even say that word.
I'm sorry, can I have a moment? No, you may not.
Ew.
You'll answer my questions now.
Drama.
Ms.
Peckinpaw, I was wondering if you can tell me what this is.
It's a backpack And this is a chair.
Objection! Never mind, that is a chair.
Backpacks are sometimes used.
To hide things we said we threw away long ago.
What are you talking about? It's barely worth mentioning.
Just something I found And "stuffed" in this bag.
I thought it might "bear" some relevance.
I love honey and hugs.
Mr.
Wigglesworth? Sidebar.
I move for a sidebar.
What are you doing? My reputation is on the line.
Drop the case or everyone sees wigglesworth.
And finds out you love honey and hugs.
Esteemed colleagues, I'm withdrawing my complaint.
I will take the "b" In interest of putting this awful episode behind us.
Case dismissed.
I have no idea what just happened, But that was very exciting.
Donny-nator is on fire.
Boo-yah.
Hey, you guys want to grab lunch, huh? Who's buying.
Oh, hey, I need a ride.
Mr.
Wigglesworth.
Now, who's the softy? You blackmailed me.
That's one of the most devious, Back-stabbing, cutthroat things I've ever seen.
I'm sorry, Piper, I sorry? You were amazing.
You really are my sister.
Hey, are you grabbing for my wallet? Oh, it's on.
Smile, you're on Aloe vision.
What are you doing, Aloe? I'm making you an Internet star, squid lips.
Soon as you unveil your failure machine, Gonna post it so the world.
Can see the real geniuses that you are.
P.
S.
, they are going to love your eyebrows.
Bro, we're all good.
You ready to make history? Is this supposed to be leaking? Hold on.
Just needs a quick adjustment.
Your display is next.
Exciting! I can't believe this is happening! Wow.
She really likes science.
Okay, let's fire this baby up, Be certified brains, Then hit the waves.
Oh, let's give you a touch up.
Very nice.
You know what? You'd look good with a mustache.
Thanks, man, I'm good.
Students, Please turn your attention to the center of the room.

You guys are dead! Let's get out of here! Thank you for this.
Honored.
I can't believe they put us back in normal class.
