We're launching a satellite that targets the Ninja and blasts a Raptor-Bot at him.

But if I don't cover my eyes, it'll ruin the surprise? Cunningham, where the juice is my surprise party? Oh, uh Surprise We did it! This is your idea of a surprise party?! Ugh, Howard, I didn't plan you a surprise party.
Then what was all that "Hah-hah-hah," "Hep-hep-hep" about?! You were bluffing?! Did you not even have a plan at all? What? No, of course I had a plan.
This was just a a thing to do while everyone was gathering at your, well, I guess it's not a surprise anymore, surprise party.
- Don't forget to act surprised, OK? - Oh! Oh, I'll act so surprised.
Where we going? Where's it gonna be? Uh PJ McFlubbusters.
For a surprise birthday lunch.
That's it, yeah, a lunch! [electronic voice.]
Launch sequence activated.

Help me! - What's with the floating? - There's no gravity in space.
Uh.
Some evil genius you are.
It's called grabbity.
Sweet cheese.
I just lunched my best friend into orbit on his birthday.
I have to save him But how? I'm not an astronaut.
[gasps.]
But he is.

Are you kidding me? Little more Little more Perfect.
Next year I'm planning my own party.
- And I will not forget it.
- Yes, you will.
Ah, you're right, I probably will.
[all laughing.]
Well, it took all day, but we finally did it.
The one ape that's got enough stuff to fly Space-Fist One.
Make me proud, son.
[shrieks.]
- Eh Grabbity - Oy! [school bell rings.]
[panting.]
For honk's sake, run! We're late for class! Whoa, whoa! [grunting.]
You boys know the rules: no running in the halls! - Aw, c'mon P-Slims, we're gonna be late! - And then you'll punish us by making us spend lunchtime in your office again! Then you better walk fast.
[grunting.]
Speedwalking counts as running.
[bell rings.]
And you're late.
See you at lunch! Mmm.
So may good rules! [groans.]
Principal Slimovitz, you're killing us with all these rules.
It's like we can't follow one without breaking two others.
Got my review with the School Board today.
Just want to make sure I've got everything under control.
I think it's time to teach the rules a lesson of our own.
Teach the rules a lesson? With ketchup? - Are you even listening to yourself? - No, I'm not.
[giggling.]
Wow, I have missed a lot of these! Uh, things are going to change around here.
Ah! Something's on my face! [giggling.]
It came out of my book! I have to warn everyone! Doh! [Slimovitz.]
Attention students: Someone has sabotaged our books! Destroy all reading materials immediately! [all gasping and screaming.]
Whoa! [knocking.]
Ah, hello? I'm here for my review.
[door shuts.]
Irving Slimovitz.
In your estimation, how excellent are you at principaling? Um very excellent? Does that look like very excellent to you? - But that wasn't my fault! - Any of these your fault? [giggling.]
We've got rules being broken left, right and sideways up in here.
For the safety of all our children, you're fired! Please! Give me one more chance! I don't think so.
NHS has been chosen to take part in an experimental principaling program.
[gasps.]
You just got replaced.
Mm - What the honk is this? - The latest in educational head wear.
PAL: Principal-Assisted Learning.
That sounds like one of P-Slim's wonk ideas.
No, no, no.
Due to yesterday's rioting incident, Principal Slimovitz was re-assigned.
To the unemployment line.
He got canned like a sardine.
[gasps.]
Sweet cheese, you got him fired?! By accident! He was shoobing us with all his rules! When you think about it, he got him fired.
[Nomicon hums.]
Hmm? [groans.]
I know, Nomicon, rules are meant to be followed.
Let's just save ourselves the shloomp on this one, huh.
Hm Greetings, students.
I'm your new principal, Todd Principal.
Ooh, he's got his job in his name.
He must be really good at it.
Your old principal was deemed unfit to principal.
I think Norrisville High deserves better.
Don't you? [all.]
Yes, Mr.
Principal.
OK, Irving.
You just walk in there and you get your stuff.
They may have taken your job, but they are not going to take your World's Greatest Cat Owner mug! [groans.]
That brings us to the mitochondria.
Paying attention in class is the cheese.
Know what's also the cheese? Perfect posture.
Don't mind me.
Just here to pick up my things.
Not trying to start a fight with the new huh computer?! Greetings, former educator.
[gasps.]
The new principal's not people! He knows too much.
Drag and drop him into the trash.
[yelps.]
Buttermaker! Nicholas! Unhand me this instant! [groaning.]
[door slams.]
- What a lovely day! - It is a lovely day, Randy.
You are violating rule 48: no talking in the hallway.
Please desist.
[chuckles.]
Huh.
Did Bash seem weird to you? Uh, what's weird about showing enthusiasm for school rules? Nothing, nothing! It's just, since when does he speak in complete sentences? [grunting and groaning.]
Pounding on the door didn't work.
Oh! Time for plan B: curling up in the fetal position.
[sighs.]
Oh! [squeaking.]
Well, if it isn't a McFistodore 34.
And his friends.
I haven't had a party like this since A/V Club.
Halls are clean.
No one's running.
Sundown doesn't smell like kitty litter.
Something's just off.
Hi, fellas.
Nice afternoon, isn't it? Yes, Douglas, it is a nice afternoon.
Thank you for inquiring.
[chuckles.]
Wait a sec.
Was I just nice to Doug?! You're right! Something's off.
Something's way off! [beeping.]
Psst! Boys! Principal Slimovitz? I've hacked in from the basement.
None of this is real! Todd Principal is a computer, and he's trapped everyone inside a simulation.
[groans.]
He's forcing you to reach your academic potential in some sort of horrible educational utopia.
What a monster! We have to stop him her it Is it a boy computer? - Here.
- Ketchup packets? [Slimovitz.]
When the time comes, you'll know what to do.
Hurry up, boys, you're my only hope.
[beep.]
[both.]
Hm.
[gasps.]
[bell rings.]
[screaming.]
Oh, no! Hot dog sauce! It's all over my face! [both laughing.]
This should be on a hot dog, not on Doug's face! [PAL.]
Multiple rule infractions.
Buffering [both laughing.]
Hot dog sauce! Oh, classic Doug.
C'mon! We gotta get Slimovitz! [panting.]
[gasps.]
- Uh - Boys! I am so glad to see you! All right.
Let's not make this weird.
We're not safe here.
If that thing is half the principal I think he is, he already knows you're truant.
[PAL.]
Attention: two students are offline.
Initiate Firewall.
Eliminate all anomalies.
[mechanical whirring.]
[both panting.]
- Boys! Slow down! - We gotta get to the office.
But we're running! In the hall! Really, you're harping on that now? I hate to be a downer here but, uh I don't think we're gettin' to that office.
I'll distract him! You boys get in there and unplug him.
- Howard - Hide.
Yeah.
I'm on it.
[yelps.]
Entire student body vs.
Ninja? Good thing I have the speed advantage.
[gasps.]
Don't have the speed advantage! Todd Principal, prepare to get schooled.
[gasps.]
Greetings.
Give it up, Todd.
A computer can't principal! [chuckles.]
On the contrary, I am the perfect principal.
We'll see about that.
I invoke rule 72-B of the NHS code: A Principal-Off.
Winner takes school.
I accept your challenge.
I know the rules better than any human.
[gasps.]
[music.]
All right, pop quiz: What color are students forbidden to wear in January? White.
So they don't get lost in the snow.
Oh, I see how it is.
Playing for keeps.
OK, next question! [grunts.]
Ninja-Misuse-Of-School-Property! [grunting.]
I don't know how long I can hold 'em off! Howard, you gotta jack back in and hurry Slimovitz up! There's no way I'm going back in there! It's creepy in there.
- Howard! - All right! I'm goin'! Hmm? [groaning.]
[gasps.]
What is the minimum amount of meat, uh, required for the cafeteria to legally call it Salisbury steak? Trick question: There is no meat.
Aw! Thought I had you with that one! Really wish I hadn't heard that.
Yes! Principal's Office! Almost there! [grunts.]
Oh, uh No! Principal's Office was almost there! Ow! Ooh! and if the Assistant Vice-Principal is also deceased, the head custodian becomes the new head of school.
[gasps.]
[gulps.]
OK, last question Ninja-Student-Dogpile-Escape! and then bury the sockstraps at least 50 feet from any water source.
- Please tell me that's not right.
- I'm afraid it is.
Then it is settled.
I am the superior administrator.
- The school is mine! - That was my last question.
[gasps.]
You have been proven obsolete.
Remember me Hm I have a question: Two students are late to class.
They're running.
How do you keep them from breaking any rules? I tell them to walk.
But then they'll be late.
That's against the rules.
- Then they must run.
- Also against the rules.
Then they must walk.
Then they'll be late.
So they must run.
That's against the rules.
So they must walk.
Then they'll be late! Buffering Buffering Buffering Buffering This question is unanswerable! For a computer maybe.
What do you think, Principal Slimovitz? Boy that's a toughie.
Come on, Slims, dig deep.
What would a human do? Well, I guess, to stop them from breaking the rules I could write them a pass Ohhh, I could've written you and Randy a pass! Yes.
Yes you could have.
You are the superior principal.
[powering down.]
Sometimes the right way to enforce a rule is not to enforce it at all.
You have taught me compassion emotion Ninja-Tengu-Fireball! I feel as if I've just begun to live Ahh! Ooh, it's terrible! [both screaming.]
It's the worst thing I've ever seen! [all gasp.]
I don't care about rules no more! Move it! [chuckles.]
Ah, yes.
Smokebomb.
Sure, I'd be willing to come back, for a 20 percent raise.
Oh, no? Less pay? OK, less pay it is.
Gotta go.
My 2:00 is here.
Ah, you boys taught me a valuable lesson.
Guess this makes us even for that ketchup thing, huh? What? Oh, no, no, no.
You two are going to copy the entire rule book, by hand, until you learn it.
[both groan.]
Ah! Wait.
So now are we even? [chuckles.]
No, now you go to detention.
[both groan.]
[laughing.]
Ah [sips.]
Mmm.
Chirp.
[Howard.]
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
