Sam and Cat (2013) s01e05 Episode Script
Texting Competition
But, see, whenever I flip the switch, the machine flips it back! You're a funny babysitter.
Thanks.
I think your head has a nice shape.
Thanks! You wanna try flipping the switch? I would, but my mom'll get mad if I don't get my homework done.
Oh right, I'm supposed to be helping you with your homework.
Here are the instructions from my mom.
Okay, Butler's homework.
It says "Set TV to mirror phone".
- I'm not sure how to do that - Already done.
Look.
Now you can see my phone screen on your TV.
Wow, tekna-cool.
M'kay, next it says "Start talking and Butler will text whatever words you say".
Look, I already did it.
Whoa! You're a fast little texter.
Ah! You did it again! Whoa.
It's like you're texting what I say even faster than I can say it.
Oh.
Uh.
Mississippi! Uh Abraham Lincoln! Whoa! Um, um Cornballs! Oh! You have magical thumbs! Hey, sorry I'm late.
Here he is.
- Who's that? - Butler.
The kid we're babysitting today.
I found him in the park.
But this is Butler.
Hey.
Then who are you? Randy.
Well Go back to the park.
So what's up? You gotta watch this kid do his homework! That sounds fun but I'd rather jam a fork in my leg.
Now, look, look, lookie! Huh You're pretty fast with your thumbs, kid.
Yeah, but why does your school give you texting homework? This isn't for school.
I'm competing in a texting competition on Saturday.
And my mom wants me to practice a lot.
- Ah.
- Makes sense.
Hey, ya wanna know a little trick that'll help ya text even faster? Sure.
Here, I call this the thumb roll maneuver.
What do you mean? See, like if you're texting the word wazz Ya roll your thumb from the W to the A to the Z.
- How'd you figure that out? - I got a lot of free time.
And she's always texting me about wazzing.
Sometimes while I'm wazzing.
I'm never that far.
No matter where you are.
Believe it, we can make it come true.
We'll do it our way, no matter what they say.
Because no one's gonna do it for you.
Ooh, ooh, yeah! But I, I, I, I I'll never say, never.
As long as we keep it together.
Oh! If you're living a dream, and you know what it means.
Then you can't let them change your mind.
It's the life that we choose, and we still break the rules.
But it's all gonna be just fine.
Just fine.
Yeah, we're all gonna be just fine.
You and me we're gonna be just fine.
Oh.
And then the beanstalk grew and grew and grew by the hair of its chinny chin chin.
And as Eleanor Rigby picked up the rice in the yellow submarine, their bicycles flew past the moon, and that was the end of the Klingons.
- Done.
- Done.
Whoa, you both texted every word I said! Yep.
- You're a really fast texter.
- You too, kid.
Hey, you should enter the competition with Butler.
Yeah! Eh, I don't like to do things.
Oh, come on, I'll go with you! It'll be fun.
- Eh - The winner gets a cool prize.
- What prize? - A speed boat.
- There! That's it.
- Ah.
Oh, please enter the competition! It's my dream to have a speed boat! - Look, I just don't wanna - I gotta have a speed boat! Who's that? Probably my mom.
Oh, hey Mrs.
Torso.
Hello, Cat.
I'm here to retrieve Butler.
Hey, mom.
This is Sam, she's Cat's babysitting buddy.
Oh, good to meet you, Sam.
Lady.
Did you practice all the texting exercises with Butler? - Yeah.
- Did you? Yes! I even massaged his thumbs like you said.
With lotion.
Thank you, Cat.
Sometimes Butler doesn't take his texting as seriously as he should.
How seriously should he take his texting? Very.
You know we've won the extreme speed texting championships, the last three years in a row.
- Oh, you compete, too? - No.
- You said we've won.
- Well, I'm Butler's manager.
- I thought you were his mom.
- I'm his mom and his manager.
I'm a Momager.
- Gross.
- Excuse me? Hi.
- Hey mom, guess what.
- Yeah.
I don't like guessing.
Sam might enter the speed texting competition too.
Aw, that's cute.
- She might be as fast as me.
- Nobody's as fast as you.
- But mom - No.
Get outside right now and wait on the bike.
- But - The bike! Here's the money for babysitting.
Oh, and, Sam, please don't come to the competition.
I don't want you distracting Butler.
Man, you really wanna win that speed boat, don't ya? I don't care about boats.
Ah.
If you guys don't care about boats As winner of the speed texting competition, Butler and I will also get an invitation to meet the Vice President.
Near The White House.
Shouldn't they just invite Butler? No! My life was nothing before Butler became successful! And now that good things are happening for him, I get to participate in everything! There's something about that lady I don't like.
Is it that she's the worst person ever? That's it! There.
Now, put your thumbs in your pockets to protect them.
But, why can't I have my own bike? Because I take you wherever you need to go.
- But I'm almost ten! - I'm in charge of us! Okay.
And then what happened? His mom told me not to come to this competition! - And then she told him to get on her bike! - And now, we're just walking in here - Telling you everything that's happened - Up until now.
Got it.
I'm all caught up.
- Good.
- Great.
No.
No no no no no.
What's wrong? You see that kid over there! The guy eating an egg That's B.
J.
Malloy.
- He a friend of yours? - Not now.
But when I was little, our moms were friends, so I had to play with him.
He's so annoying.
Wow, he's really sucking down that egg.
Yeah, because he loves 'em.
All he does is eat eggs.
- Oh, and he's an echoer.
- What's an echoer? It's It's hard to explain.
Just help me hide from him.
Oh yeah sure, totally no problem.
But first Hey B.
J.

No, Butler won.
That's what I said.
No, you said we've.
I can say we've if I want to say we've.
In school we learned that the ancient Indians used to weave rugs.
What are you, dumb? Hey! Weave her alone.
She is all up in your business.
Stop laughing! Look, Mrs.
Torso, don't be upset.
If Sam wins the texting competition, you can use our speed boat any time you want.
We don't care about the stupid speed boat! We want to meet the Vice President! Come on, go.
Vice President of what?! I think it's the Vice President of America.
Oh.
Do we know his name? Nah, we're just high school students.
Right.
- Faster.
- Ow! You're squeezing my clavicles! Practicing? Yeah, just loosening up my thumbs.
