Kid Cosmic (2021) s01e04 Episode Script

[Kid] Woo-hoo!
[Kid] span style="style2"When a ship carrying the five
span style="style2"most powerful objects in the universe
crash-landed on Earth…
a lone hero answered the call of destiny,
receiving the five
Cosmic Rings of Power!
Our noble hero knew the universe
chose him, and him alone,
to wield their powers for good
and keep them out of the hands of evil.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Ah!
Not because he needed help,
but out of the goodness of his heart,
the Kid decided
to share his powers with others.
So he assembled
an unstoppable super team of heroes.
A teleporting teen!
A multiplying old man!
A giant little girl!
[Rosa laughs]
[Kid] span style="style2"A cat who can see the future!
And their courageous leader,
the kid, who could tame the sky!
When danger strikes, champions will rise.
When evil comes, legends will be born.
When danger-- Oh, said that already.
And villains! Villains, beware.
For we are the most powerful
hero team ever assembled!
[all] Kid Cosmic and the Local Heroes!
-[Chuck] They suck!
-[Kid] Hey!
This movie is even more pathetic than--
It's not a movie!
Movies are fake. This is real.
We're documenting our adventures
for the future of humanity
so they'll know
what a real hero looked like!
Whoa! [grunts]
Documenting?
Yeah! Me and the Gs thought we'd help out.
We are going to be
the saviors of Earth, you know.
So it's a five-minute documentary
of you getting destroyed?
I'd watch that.
[energy humming]
[Kid laughs] So the invasions begin.
Let's do this!
[snarls]
[eerie music playing]
Gleep glorp.
I, Zarkon, demand you hand over
the Stones of Power. Gleep!
[Kid] Give up, Zarkon!
-You're no match--
-Ah!
[Kid] Ow!
[Chuck] Ha, ha-- Ow!
[all yelping]
No match for Zarkon? Ha!
What did you do to these? Gleep!
You guys are amateurs,
and I'm about to take over
the flargin' universe! Glorp!
[groans] What happened?
[all groaning]
-[Kid] Did we win?
-So long, you dummies!
Yeah, that's right!
Whose rings are these? Zarkon's.
All hail Zarkon! All hail Zarkon!
-[electricity crackling]
-[Zarkon groaning]
[Papa G] We should see if he's--
Never mind.
That was bad.
So bad.
Well, in life, you never want
to run out of challenges.
I'd say we're in no danger of that!
It still counts as a win!
Besides, we can only get better from here.
[straining] Yes! Rings of Power!
Are you serious? I heard they were stones!
Nope. Rings. They're Power Rings.
[groans]
What am I gonna do with rings?
[dramatic choral music playing]
I'll give you 800 Vekluvian credits
for the stones.
Uh…
No?
How about 950?
Fifty million credit… things.
[scoffs] Too rich for my blood. I'm out.
Give us the stones!
Lord Koregore!
You're not getting the Stones of Power!
[Koregore] No!
span style="style2"You're not getting the Stones of Power!
[all yelling]
[Kid] span style="style2"We were on a roll!
But those guys were no match
for the foes we were about to face in…
[all screaming]
[grunts]
Ah! [screams]
Local Heroes, huddle up!
Nope!
Spread out! Good call! Yeah!
Kitty, kitty.
Kitty.
[bellows] Stop it!
-Whoa.
-Whoa!
Whoa!
Rosa, it's play time!
I want to play!
[Rosa growls]
There you go, fella.
[speaking alien language]
Well, you'll be all right.
Papa G, spaceman's bad!
They try to hurt us.
Well, Rosa, that's true.
But there's no need to make 'em suffer
once they've been whooped.
Why not go home
and think about what you've done?
-Go home? I'll help you!
-Uh…
[speaking alien language]
Back into the spaceship, spacemans!
[aliens murmuring]
I dunno if that--
Go home, aliens!
[grunts]
Bye-bye!
Yay!
Yay…
-Yeah, Rosa! [chuckles]
-Whoo! Go, Rosa!
Rosa, for defeating the saucer men,
I present you with the first ever
Medal of Hero-ism for Heroes.
Yeah! Big girl award!
[cheering]
The great thing
about the Medal of Hero-ism is
it doesn't matter who you are
or what your powers are.
-Any of us can win one.
-Dumb.
And it's pronounced "heroism."
Rosa definitely deserved
to win the first one.
And the second.
[cheering]
And the third.
[explosion]
[growls]
[cheering]
She was on a hot streak for a while.
[roars]
[growls]
-[Rosa chanting] Rosa, Rosa, Rosa!
-[cheering and applause]
[Kid] span style="style2"But another hero led the way
span style="style2"on our most frightening adventure yet.
[Kid] What?! muffled straining]
[yelping]
-Ah!
-[static crackles[
-[Kid] Everyone okay?
-Yeah, great job!
-Knew you could do it.
-Yay, Kid!
[meows]
-[Rosa screams]
-[snarls]
Oh, charming, an escape attempt.
How delightful.
[Kid] Stay back!
You'll never take our rings,
you alien scum!
Rings? Oh, keep them, by all means.
That's not why you're here.
-[Kid] Then why are we here?
-Delicious boy, we're going to eat you!
-What now?
-[Kid] We fight!
No, we run!
-[Kid] Where are we going?
-Not here!
There, that should do!
Oh, come on!
Okay, Jo, think. You can do this!
Dinner is served!
Nope, no, it's not.
[aliens snarling]
We gotta get out of the ship
before it takes off into…
space!
Look at that!
We've been in outer space the whole time.
Thought this was just a bad flashback.
[aliens snarling]
[Jo] Ah!
[Kid] Barricade the door!
Time to save the day!
Whoa!
[Papa G] You're doing great,
but I don't think this is the Milky Way.
We need to get back to span style="style2"our galaxy!
Jo, order up! A giant portal
with a side of save the day!
What? I don't know, that's pretty far.
[Papa G]
Remember: Freakin' out? Breathe it out.
[groans]
Think… Earth!
[Papa G cheers] Yeah, now you're doin' it!
[gasps] I did it!
[Rosa] Spacemans sleeping?
[Papa G] Yeah… sleeping.
-[screams]
-[Kid] It's okay! It's okay!
-Rosa, wanna play a game?
-[gasps]
[spaceship approaching]
[all] Peek-a-boo!
[all groan]
For a second, it looked like maybe
another hero would save the day but--
[Rosa] I already got enough!
Uh… congrats, Jo. You deserve it.
[cheering and applause]
[chanting] Jo! Jo! Jo! Jo! Jo!
Yay.
It was nothin'.
Yay! Not dinner!
Yep, Rosa kept us from being eaten,
Jo got us home, and you…
Well…
Hey, I didn't do much either. [chuckles]
Kid, remember.
The lower you fall, the higher you fly.
Practice. You can't win
if you don't practice.
Lame.
Yes!
It's perfect! Thanks, Papa G.
Huh, anything for you.
Kid, are you sure?
I can do this? Absolutely.
[Tuna meowing]
[ominous rumbling]
Something big is coming.
Rosa, it's playtime.
[thunder cracks]
Oops. Forgot it.
Well, it's okay, Rosa.
I forgot my rain poncho!
-[thunder booming]
-[dramatic music playing]
It's okay!
I'm ready. I've been waiting for this.
[cheering]
Boy, talk about a hero
coming through in the nick of time!
That was unbelievable and indescribable!
You absolutely had to be there!
And no explanation
would ever do it justice!
Today's Medal of Heroism for Heroes winner
came through to save us all.
I don't know 
what we would have done without him.
Bravo! Bravo.
-[cheering and applause]
-[Rosa chanting] Tuna, Tuna, Tuna!
I… I…
A cat. A cat! I mean--
Seriously! Amazing. A cat!
Kitty, kitty, kitty. Kitty, kitty, kitty.
It's like I always wanted to say,
"Bravery can come
from the most unexpected places!"
[whispers] Loser!
[roars]
Give me the Stones of--
[choking]
I can't breathe!
[Jo] Um…
[sighs] Another shot at glory
that slipped away.
Well, my comics
aren't gonna read themselves.
We can't just leave him.
We have to get rid of the body.
[Papa G] I could bust out paints
and make the whole thing
blend into the scenery.
[meowing]
[peppy rock song plays]
Rosa! Get big and hide the body!
No! Gross!
Yes! Good idea!
-Where are you sending him?
-Haven't gotten that far yet.
[all sigh]
This works, right?
-[Jo] We need to do something before--
-[Papa G] Gotta bury him.
Rosa, how about digging a big hole and--
Ew!
Well, if you want something done right,
you gotta do it yourselves.
[cheering and applause]
[Rosa chanting] Papa G, Papa G,
Papa G, Papa G, Papa G!
And of course,
I couldn't have done it without the Gs.
Two-oh-two, where are you?
I told you we'd do it.
Seventy-three,
you'll always be number one to me.
It wasn't easy. That hole wasn't big.
But with a few cuts and trims,
we fit it all, didn't we?
Sixty-five, well,
they can do wonders with therapy nowadays.
[screams]
Okay, we forget anyone?
Medal, medal, medal.
Wanna make sure you all got one. Medal?
Medal? Medal?
-Medal? Great, everybody got a medal.
-[chuckles]
Not everyone.
Well, everyone proved they were a hero…
except me.
I guess I thought I'd be better at this.
I guess I was wrong.
[Chuck] Told you.
[clattering]
Huh? What the--
Oh no, a robo-invasion!
Oh no, everyone's asleep!
Oh no, it's all up to--
-[robot] Give us the Rings of Power.
-You gotta get through Kid Cosmic first!
[Kid exclaiming]
[upbeat rock music playing]
[groans] That hurt.
I'm not going to let you win.
Papa G was right.
The lower you fall, the higher you fly.
[chuckles]
Who else wants some?
Hey!
[robots] Give us the Rings of Power.
Bet you robo-dorks
think you have me surrounded.
Well, think again
as you get a taste of my super moves!
Just as I suspected.
Tornado forces I've generated 
have sucked you into range
and made you powerless
before the move known as…
the Twister Fist!
Whoa!
It seems not even I am impervious
to the effects of my power.
Ha!
Yeah!
That turned out great, Papa G!
Saved the best for last!
-You really did it, Kid!
-Kid. Kid. Kid.
[Kid] Thanks.
I hate to admit it, but I was sort of…
a little, kind of
starting to doubt myself.
I never doubted you!
I still do. You fools just got lucky!
Wait 'til my Great Leader gets here.
Then you'll--
Oh yeah? If your leader is so great,
why isn't he here?
What, did he get lost?
-[Chuck splutters]
-[all laugh]
Thanks, Papa G.
It took me longer
to get the hang of things.
Everyone else was doing so great.
I was so happy for you guys. I was.
-[gasps]
-What?
I love you, Kid!
Guess what? We're not done yet.
We got a surprise for you.
You earned it, Kid.
Yes! Love you, Papa G!
Yeah! Whoo-hoo!
What did you do?
He needed a win.
He's been hurt too many times in his life.
I couldn't watch it happen again.
These rings are supposed to be his chance,
not another source of pain.
It's just a little boost, that's all.
A little nudge. This will help him.
Okay, I hope you're right,
because he can't ever find out the truth.
I know.
[Papa G] It would destroy him.
[Chuck] Uh-huh.
[closing theme music plays]
I got all my friends all up ♪
And I got 'em doing the gravity bowl ♪
It's a party in a business
And everybody's welcome ♪
Wigglin' on ♪
When these two
Squeeze all up on each other ♪
I don't think any of us mind ♪
I count 'em up, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
And recorded at 9 ♪
One, two, three, four ♪
