It looks like a rainbow Threw up.
Actually, Everything used to be gray, But it reminded me Too much of school.
They haven't painted That place Since Reagan was president.
I don't even know Who that is.
They said I could decorate The office any way I wanted, So, I decided, Why not make it colorful.
And the popcorn machine is Because I like popcorn.
Sometimes I sit on the couch And pretend I'm at the movies.
I'll be all "watch out Beethoven 3!" and I pretend to be The cranky guy behind her, And I'll be like, "shhhh.

No one else heard that? So, you're like Her assistant? Yeah, watch this.

Well, I couldn't find it.
I'll go.
How about that dress? Hello? Hello.
Hey, my grandma had a shirt Just like that one.
She died of poor taste.
This happens to be An original cardellini.

What are you doing? Shaking stuff.
Well, put that down.
It's not a toy.
Sorry.
Here, you want a soda? It's nice and cool.
Yeah, pass.
I'm sure True was delighted To get a visit from you today.
Probably not.
I think I make her nervous.
They are totally witches.
Ryan, they are not witches.
How do you know? Well, For one there are no witches.
Two, witches don't skate, And three, I went To photography camp with them And they didn't mention it.
Bet if you Threw water on them, They'd melt.
Don't get any ideas.
Tell me if you see Any belt buckles over there.
You don't think that had Anything to do with me, do you? Can you go five minutes Without messing something up? Honestly.
No! You want to leave and pretend Like we were never here? Good plan.
Any other ideas? Well, we could play tennis Until we starve to death.
Oscar, did the pinks leave? I believe so.
Okay.
I lost the morning, But now that the pinks are gone, I can really get focused.
What the Gotta go.
Pinky! Pinky! Yeah.
What are you doing? Looking for long hallways To get some speed going.
These turns are murder On my ankles.
I should Sue you.
I don't mean to sound Harsh or anything, But it's a little busy today, So, maybe you should go.
Yeah, I don't see That happening.
Why not? I work here.
You what now? What do you mean, You work here? You heard me.
Looks like you're Not the only one who took a swim In Lake lucky.
But who hired you? I forget her name.
Big metal hands, Might be a robot.
Amanda! Did somebody call me? Pinky here Was just telling me That you hired her.
Isn't it wonderful? She'll be here all day, Every day, Sitting right outside your door.
Excuse me, won't you? Amanda, how could you Do this? What? I go out of my way to hire One of your little friends And you're acting like You're not happy.
How's that supposed To make me feel? The truth is She's not really someone I hang out with too much.
I can't get involved In teen drama.
Is she your friend or isn't she? No, in fact, She freaks me out.
Well, this is a side of you I haven't seen.
I'm sure you're overreacting.
Look at my hand.
Hands aren't Supposed to shake like that! Well, except my Uncle Troy's do, But that's only Because he went over Niagara falls in a barrel.
Oh no, and you have All those belts to make.
Maybe you can get pinky To help you.
Pinky! What now? True could use your help On a project.
Shouldn't I be Designing clothes? Yeah, that's more of a day 2 Sort of thing.
Right now, Just stick to True like glue.
You got it, chuckles.
What do you call that color? "I got dressed in the dark Green?" Hello! Now you say hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Now you do it again.
Hello.
We are gonna Have to work on that.
Nice job, Ryan.
You're not Still blaming this on me, Are you? Who builds a keypad That explodes when you hit it With a tennis ball? We don't even know Where we are going.
What if we come out and we're in Another building entirely.
Wait, there's a light.
Oh, it's kopelman's office.
kopel-man I'm going to kill you kopelman.
yes.
Did you see that? He ran out of there Like there was a sale On shiny white shoes And hair gel.
Ryan, why didn't you tell him We needed help? My bad.
I think I see some light Up ahead.
It's the mailroom.
Hey, there's Jimmy.
Well, figures he's asleep.
Wake up, Jimmy! Wake up! Wake up! Wait.
Hey wait.
Let me just It hit him right on the head.
How's he still sleeping? What did you drop on him? Cell phone.
You had a cell phone? My bad.
Stop it.
Stop playing with that.
Pinky, this is not a toy.
Your face is a toy.
Charming.
True hasn't checked On the material she promised, Has she? Not that I saw.
I think I finally found her kryptonite.
She can't concentrate With you around.
This is like the time We made fun of her leggings, And she failed an English test.
I'm giving you a raise.
We have to warn True.
Nice job Throwing your cell phone away, Genius.
You should Really be more responsible With your things.
Where's yours? Under the leg of my desk To keep it from wobbling.
Come on.
We'll make it out of here.
The key is, We have to stick together.
Right.
Oscar, Did the factory call back yet? No.
What about Lulu? No.
Can you call her again? Will do.
I'm in big trouble, Oscar.
Do you think there's any chance We could get Sebastian fabulous To come in next week instead? Impossible.
He's notoriously busy.
They say He sleeps five hours day, And during those five hours, He also exercises.
Is that evepossible? Rumor has it that he once had Two hours to spare And he got married And had a honeymoon.
If this is your way Of calming me down, It's not working.
My teeth are chattering Worse than my Uncle Troy's After he got hit by lightning.
Hey hibbert! Hibbert! Up here, you cheesebag! Get me the Russian embassy.
This is the sandman.
Hibbert's a spy? I can't explain right now, But I need a van To pick up Ryan Laserbeam.
Take him to skull island For deprogramming.
Oh, this is not good.
Oh, and replace All of his bones with cat bones.
Are you sure You don't have anything Like that? I need a thousand yards In an hour.
Hello? Hello! Now you're getting it.
What am I gonna do? I said I could get This special material And now it's not available.
Tough luck on them.
Tough luck on me.
I'm the idiot Who promised something I can't deliver.
Just say you have mono And stay home for two months.
Great.
I'm getting The Uncle troys again.
Are you okay? Couldn't be better.
I just What was the question again? True, I've never seen you So off your game.
It's those pinks.
I can barely focus With pinky turzo Rolling her eyes At everything I do.
You know, When I was your age, There were these popular boys At my school.
We called them the Rogers.
They wore Matching brown sneakers And looked down on anyone Who didn't wear them too.
What did you do? I wore brown sneakers, And for a little bit, I looked down on people Who didn't.
Then one day, I accidentally spilled Orange paint on my shoes, And I realized They looked so much better.
The Rogers Mustn't have liked that.
They did not.
They gave me a lot of grief.
But sometimes that's the cost Of being yourself.
Conformity is bad.
Mad style.
Sebastian fabulous Is in the building.
Thanks Oscar.
Hurry.
No, You can't deliver it tomorrow.
I said I wanted it today.
Yeah, baby.
I'll remember to pick up milk On my way home.
If it's not delivered today, I will slap you with a fish.
Go to the seaport And get me a fish And some milk.
Sit down, everyone.
It's exactly 11 seconds until 3.
Ten, nine, eight sorry, I'm early.

Hi.
Before I present our design, May I tell you a little story? No.
Oh, let's begin.
And there you have it.
I like the belt.
How fast can you deliver A thousand units? Immediately, right? No.
I'm sorry? Actually with its Flawless silhouette And classic design The dress stays constant, But the belt is unique.
Unique, how? No two are exactly the same.
Some are this pattern And some are solid And some are a little of both.

That's not a toy.
Don't play with it.
Then can I play With your face? Hey, did True tank the meeting? She did not.
Man, she's so lucky.
No, it's not luck.
It's something else, An open mind, A refusal to be daunted.
I mean, it is exhilarating To watch sometimes, How she always manages To turn problems around And create something amazing.
"uncommon couture.
" It's positively inspired.
I understand Why you'd be jealous of her.
Jealous of her? Like I'd ever be! Well, you should.
Whatever else I might think about her, She is really something special.
But don't ever tell anyone I said that.
Like I was even listening, Huh! Lulu, We gotta get out of here.

He wants to have me Sent to skull island And have my brains rewired.
Oh, I hear It's nice this time of the year.
