Bucket & Skinner's Epic Adventures (2011) s01e12 Episode Script

Epic Takeover

Bucket, this is a new look for you! Yep, sleeveless shirt.
Just letting the big dogs breathe.
Hey, strongman.
Can you open this? Oh, Kelly.
You startled us.
It's broken.
Ah, there is nothing more exhilarating than camping.
3 days alone in the wilderness, just you and mother nature locking horns in a vicious fight for survival! Aren't you staying in a hotel? I don't like to be chilly.
Hey, what's this? It's my emergency survival kit.
There's only a waffle-maker and an air horn in here.
Yeah.
I'm picking up syrup on the way.
Where do the waffles co-e out? Well, it looks like I've got everything, except bug repellant.
Skeeters find me tasty.
Ooh! Here you go, big guy.
You have fun, and don't you worry about the shop.
I got it all covered.
Wait, Kelly.
Why are you assuming you're in charge? Bucket, come on.
You're just a kid.
Just a kid.
Maybe you didn't see that video of me shaving last month? Yeah.
Why do you keep sending me that? I have my reasons.
Three Pieces, who is it going to be? Keep in mind I'm a junior and a straight-A student.
And I'm your blood relative and can burp the song "Old MacDonald"? Both excellent arguments.
Uh, may I say, don't hold it against Bucket because he borrowed your long board without asking.
Or Kelly for eating your popcorn ball.
I missed lunch! He did love that ball! Guys, while I'm away from the shop, the person in charge of the surf shop is 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 days I walk by, hello You know that when the surf 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 Kelly, I've an urgent message from Three Pieces.
Kelly, I am Three Pieces.
I am camping in the woods.
See? Marshmallows.
Anyway, I want Bucket in charge of the shop.
You okay, Three Pieces? You look kind of stiff and masky.
Um, gotta go! A grizzly bear is here! Grrr! I'm a bear, and I say Bucket's in charge of the shop, too! Bye! Nice try, Bucket, but Three Pieces sent me a voicemail this morning, clarifying that I'm in charge.
Hi, Kelly.
This is Three Pieces I am worried about Bucket.
He is very slow.
Will you please be in Charge! Oh, what? You're the only one who can come up with insanely stupid ideas? Hey, Skinner! Nice bear mask.
Uh, I'm not Skinner.
I'm his twin cousin Skinner! You know what? I can't do this.
Kelly, it's me, Skinner.
Bucket, why don't you go sweep up the walk? As boss, I'll be on the register.
Hang on.
You're not in charge.
I am.
Fine.
Have it your way.
I'll be on the register, and you can sweep up.
That's more like it.
Have either of you noticed not one customer's been in here today? So? So? If you're really interested in running a successful business, do yourself a favor and read my self-published book.
You wrote a book? "Follow The Piper: How to Unlock the Business Mogul in You.
" Dare to become a better you.
Here's a good tip for beginners.
Pay the rent.
What's that? The rent check, along with a note from Three Pieces.
"Give to landlord by Monday.
Smiley face.
" Rent is due Monday? Today's Tuesday! One day late is no big deal, right? Right.
What's the worst that could happen? This is the worst thing that could happen.
The surf shop's under new management? We were only one day late with the rent! It's locked.
Let's try the side door.
Oh, hey, gang.
You're the new management? What's an Aleoporium? It's a surf shop that specializes in all things Aloe.
But how did you even pounce on this lease so fast? My mom happens to be the number one real estate agent in town.
Fact! The lady from the bus benches? I sit on your mom a lot.
Aloe, this is my uncle's shop.
You can't do this.
I have to admit, it's hard to see you guys looking so sad 'Cuz I don't have my contacts in! He shoots, he scores! Talked to the landlord.
It's all legit.
The place is Aloe's.
These babies are going to be hard to keep on the rack! Ah, Three Pieces' legendary board! Watch out, laborers.
Be careful not to scratch the surf trophy case.
It lets people know the owner is King of the Bea!! Daddy loves his babies, yes, he does.
Well, good luck running this place with no employees, Aloe, because I quit.
And so does Kelly.
And so do I, Even though I don't work here.
Don't care.
I've hired the best employee this shop's ever had.
Thanks, boss.
Not you.
Her! Myew manager.
Fact! Fact! Listen, squids.
You've got an hour to grab any mementos you want, 'cuz after that, it's going to be all Aloe all the time.
Yes, she did! Tell me this isn't happening.
Hey, Kels.
Have you seen our new line of talking Aloe sunblock? Put me on.
I'll protect you.
Piper, I can't believe you're working for Aloe.
Hey, maybe if Oprah let someone else sell a few books, I wouldn't need the paycheck.
I don't get it.
Why isn't she lifting heavy boxes, while I write down stuff with a cool glitter pen? Because Aloe knows I've got what it takes to turn this place into a thriving commercial success.
Now, have a lolly and get back to work.
I'll be watching you.
Ooh, grape! So, you're just going to turn your back on Three Pieces? Trust me, Kell.
I'm doing what's best.
Last time you said that, you'd ld all my jewelry on the Internet.
All for a good cause.
You bought yourself a new bike! Hey, Three Pieces.
How's the camping trip going? Just building the old tent-a-rino.
I thought you were staying at a hotel.
The hotel didn't work out.
If you're not going to accept pennies as currency, you should put up a sign! So, you're outdooring it.
Good luck.
Kells, when you're an experienced wwodsman such as myself, luck doesn't even factor in.
He's coming back in two days.
Guys, we need to get serious.
Here.
What's this? My weiner hats.
I put them on when I need to think.
Weiner hat? Yeah, that's not going on my head.
Look, there's got to be something Aloe wants more than the shop.
Okay.
He's rich, he's popular, he thinks he's the greatest surfer ever That's it! We play on his vanity and get him to stake the shop on a surf-off.
But the only person who could take down Aloe around here is Skinner, and he doesn't surf competitively.
It's just how I was raised.
Surfing is the world's purest art form and should never be sullied by competition.
Oh, I'm very aware of Skinner's family beliefs.
We've gone to his house to recruit him for the surf team many times.
His Gammy stands on the porch and throws potatoes at us.
Look, this store is Three Pieces' baby.
If this is what it takes to get it back for him, I'll compete.
Skinner, we'll think of something else The weiner hat has spoken! Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go break it to my Gammy.
It's going to rain taters.
Just stay close and follow my lead.
Yeah, because Bucket can't lead.
He's just a little kid.
One chocolate milk, please.
Just play along.
So, I'm doing an article for the school paper on the best surfer in Pacific Bluffs.
Sounds interesting.
I like to read articles.
Maybe you don't talk during this.
Yeah, I just finished the front page spread.
It's a huge picture with the headline, "The Undisputed King of the Beach!" Devil-speak! Aloe, the Sultan of Surf, the Monarch of Muscles, requires a sit down with you immediately.
Sven! You left out the Boss of Buff.
I'll be in the penalty box.
Hey, Aloe.
Problem? Big problem.
Aloe is King of the Beach! A lot of people say Skinner's the better surfer, so I guess it's up for debate.
False! The only debate is if I'm awesome looking or awesomer looking.
As far as surfing goes, I'm number one.
Are you suggesting a surf-off, you against Skinner? I'll go up against anybody.
So, it's you against all takers.
If you win, I devote an entire front page to Aloe, the Undisputed King of the Beach.
If you lose, you give up the surf shop.
Is it on? It's on.
It's on like a gong from Hong Kong I bought for a song.
And a doorbell goes ding-dong! I know.
Penalty box.
Dude, why did you make me put on my weiner hat to read a Samurai book? Because I have 24 hours to turn you into a ferocious competitor.
Now, let me hear your war cry.
Waah! War is sad! Waah! We'll work on it.
All right, giant-size kick ball! Skinner's this is to help work on your balance for the surf-off.
Actually, I got this, Kell.
I have him learning the wisdom of the warrior.
Funny, I don't remember Skinner naming you lead trainer.
Let's run through a few stretches.
He needs the Eye of the Tiger.
Stretching.
Eye of the Tiger! Ow, you're tearing me apart! Ow! Ow! Dudes, stop! This is exactly why I oppose competition.
Competition is the reason why giant companies swallow small businesses, friends turn on each other and people pole vault! Now, if we want to get the shop back, we have to work together.
You're right.
Okay.
Good.
First order of business, we're going to need a new surfer 'cause I totally sprained my ankle on that fall.
Dude, I'm so sorry.
Me, too! Your ankle is purple.
This is a nightmare.
What are we going to do? I think we all know what we have to do.
Well are you having fun Uncle Three Pieces.
Nothing like the tranquility of nature to soothe a man's soul.
Yeah, I'm coming home now.
He's on his way back! Dude, I've made a huge decision.
I'm going to go up against Aloe on the surf-off, but I need you to train me to surf like you.
I'll be your Sensei, Bucket, but prepare yourself 'cause my training methods can get pretty intense.
Bring it.
So, not to question your training methods, but we've been sitting here for 3 hours eating cotton candy.
You okay? We can take it slower.
I'm just wondering how this is going to help me beat Aloe.
Dude, I'm going to tell you what my Uncle Scampy told me right before he died.
He said, "Aah! Get this refrigerator off of me!" A refrigerator fell on him.
And did he have any surfing wisdom? He told me the key to surfing.
Cotton candy.
Think about it.
It's shapeless and has no control.
It's got the stick for that.
See how it clings? Effortless.
The stick is your board, Bucket.
So, I should cling? Be the candy.
And never put your refrigerator on a ramp.
Use a flat surface.
So, Tim.
About time you showed up with my animal.
Getting her off the truck right now.
This is exciting.
I'll be paying with store cash.
What did we say again, 300? Ha, ha, ha! $500, Piper.
You, always keeping me honest.
I'll just put it outside.
Isn't it amazing how life-like mannequins are getting these days? This one looks a little dirty.
Better clean him.
Stop! Stop! I'm a real boy! Can't a dude chill in his Zen garden for two seconds? What's going on? I caught her using store cash to buy herself a pet.
It's not for me, Professor.
It's for the store.
It's a mechanical bull.
Why do we need a mechanical bull? Silence! Yeah, why do we need a mechanical bull? To make money.
Customers pay to ride.
Trust me, have I made a bad move yet? Maybe you're right.
Besides, a bull will only enhance my reputation as the all-powerful King of the Beach! I shall call him Peaches.
Whoa, these swells are pretty insane.
I'm not sure anyone's paddling out today.
Bring on all challengers! The King is here.
And he's awesome! So, Piper, I see which side you're standing on.
The same side I'm always on, the winning side.
Stamp! Stamp! Oh, look.
Skinner's going with the fake injury bit.
Weak! So, who among you dares take on Aloe? Speak now! I speak.
I'm taking you on, Aloe.
You? I laugh at you.
Ha! I double laugh at you.
Ha, ha! I triple laugh I get it! Bucket, are you crazy? Have you seen the swells? They put up the red flags.
It's my uncle's shop.
This is just something I have to do.
Cling, dude.
You'll do great.
Enough talk! Let's do this.
The revolution will be "Aloe-vised.
" Hope you're ready to be schooled in "Bucket-ology!" Was I like cotton candy? You did cling to that sandbar you face-planted on.
I can't believe you charged that wave.
That was the ride of your life.
I won? Not quite, but you did come in second.
I lost? What happened? You won.
You stayed on your board longer.
Point eight seconds longer.
Victory back flip! Chin up.
You tamed the beast out there.
But I lost.
Bucket, you stepped up big time, taking on Aloe, battling monster waves.
I'm never calling you a kid again.
Glad we cleared that up.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the King of Pacific Bluffs! Dude, I'm a King.
I'm not going to walk.
Thank you! Thank you, everyone, for recognizing how awesome I am.
I'm very humbled.
The two of us will now pose for pictures.
Not you Peaches.
We'll just wait here for Three Pieces to get back.
He should hear the bad news from us.
Bucket, I know you may be feeling down, but nothing turns a frown upside down like a complimentary bull ride! Gee, that would make everything better.
Shoo! Oh, the hard way then.
Why can't you just accept this gracious gift? I'm trying to be nice! Clearly.
You're not going to stop bugging me till I do this? Fine.
Now, granted, I've never ridden a bull because I'm a giraffe man, but my advice would be the same.
Hold on! Just keep it on the slow setting.
I'm still sore from that Sure, slow.
Whatever.
Whoa! Sven, my throat hurts.
Laugh at him.
Bucket, you okay, bro? I think so.
Oh, no! That boy looks hurt.
We may have serious legal exposure here.
What? A lawsuit? Are you serious? I hope there isn't a lawyererere.
I said, I hope there isn't a lawyer here! Oh, right! I'm a lawyer.
Oh, no.
Would you say that this bull incident has exposed Aloeporium to a costly personal injury lawsuit? I'd stake my online diploma on it! Dude, my dad is going to freak! Maybe it's not so ba Mr.
Lawyer? Do these shirts come in extra, extra, extra small? Ah! Actually, whoever's name is on the lease is on the hook for his huge medical costs.
Then, ha! I hereby renounce all interest in this business.
Sven, eat this evidence.
Aloe out! Peaches, I'll send for you.
We did it! We got the shop back! Wait, this isn't some lawyer.
This is your lawyer, Piper.
Also DJ, dog walker and paperboy.
I'll leave my business cards on the table.
You were never on Aloe's side.
You were planning this the whole time? During battle, never let the enemy see you coming.
From chapter four of my book.
Plug alert! Plug alert! Well, thanks for getting the shop back, but did you have to come up with a plan that had me getting thrown from a bull? Nope.
That was just a bonus.
He's coming! He's coming! I'm back! Hey, how'd it go? Awesome! How else could it go when you leave me in charge? Me and Kelly.
And wait till you hear how close we were to losing Our minds without you! Well, I've got to say I missed you guys, too, and the place looks great.
It's just like I left it.
Hey! There's the guy! You've got a nice little spread up there.
I've never used an electric toothbrush before.
What's my paperboy doing here?
