[Nickel and Balloon sit, looking at photos from Snapshot Showdown]
|
|
Oh and THIS one? Dude, I was crushed! By a safe! Look at me! I'm a whole millimeter thinner than before! That wasn't meant for me!
|
|
Yes, she's a lucky clover. We- eh... Wait... did you plant that to crush her?
|
|
...That's irrelevant. Look! Her luck will be the demise of all of us!
|
|
Uh, yeah. I don't think she's the one we need to worry about when we have Box literally voting for us! There are only four of us Sinkers left and we need Box to be in line.
|
|
I mean he clearly must've just slipped or something. He's with us! To the bitter end. And besides, he's the only reason the two of us are... Um... Oh and look at this photo!
|
|
Nickel... the two of us are... what?
|
|
[BELL RINGS]
|
|
Boys! I hope you both came famished! Look at you, Nickel, so thin! I've prepared quite the feast for our... (Gets close to Nickel) ... alliance...
|
|
[COUGHS] EUGH! GROSS! Sorry for the repulsed reaction... but frankly, I'M REPULSED!
|
|
Okay, calm down.
|
|
Boys, this shouldn't even need to be a discussion. How can you ever trust Box again? He's a chronic liar! And besides, has Box ever prepared a five-course meal for you all to indulge in?
|
|
[She gestures to a pic-nic table with food and drinks]
|
|
Isn't this just the Pic-Nix table with a cloth over it?
|
|
...Noooo?
|
|
Oh, my mistake. Funny you mention that, because I really wanted a... BROWNIE!
|
|
[The pic-nix table generates a brownie]
|
|
What meshugas is this? I've been FRAMED!!!
|
|
Yeah well we'll see how you hold up in COURT!
|
|
[Nickel walks away and Tea Kettle sees that Box is now next to her]
|
|
Boooooox! Have you lost weight?
|
|
[in the Calm Down Cabana] My luncheon didn't go quite as planned. So I needed a Plan B! And "B" stands for Box! This tough mama's not going down without a fight!
|
|
Luckily I've prepared this entire feast just for you! Care to dig in with me?
|
|
...
|
|
Ah, I see. You prefer to eat in private. I'll just leave you to it.
|
|
[She sets him down near the spaghetti to let him eat, and when she walks away he "face-plants" into it]
|
|
[ ♫ Intro plays ♫ ]
|
|
Everyone, I have some disheartening news. We've received reports that our show's practices have been deemed... unsafe.
|
|
[MePhone pulls out a Safety Report filed by OJ. It shows a picture of OJ grinning and giving the camera the middle finger, accompanied by the quote, "This is the right finger". This is a reference to BFDI 1A.]
|
|
Apparently we didn't follow the... "proper protocol". Feh, "irresponsible"?
|
|
The only thing unsafe here is your usage of air quotes. Agreed, team?
|
|
[the Thinkers are silent]
|
|
Eh heh. Oohh...
|
|
And while I personally disagree, we have to comply or I might get sued again! Ugh!
|
|
(Talking to Tea Kettle) For the record, the court thing earlier... was a joke!
|
|
And because I refuse to go to prison again... The next challenge is the epitome of "safety". The classic egg drop challenge. Each team will be given an egg and has to create a contraption to keep the egg safe. Use any of the provided "safety tools" you want to create your contraption. Once completed, the contraptions will be thrown off the island's cliff. If your egg busts open at any point, you're automatically up for "elimination"! Alright, good luck!
|
|
Hold up, mate? What about safety protocols? You're not gonna watch over us?
|
|
Floory, this is a reality show. You're always being watched over.
|
|
[He smiles at the viewers and then walks away]
|
|
Alright, so this is Structural Engineering 101. Let's get this started with a simple length-width-height measurement for volume calculations, and then we-
|
|
Up up! Hate to push in on such educated thinking. But maybe it's best we perhaps let... fate intervene.
|
|
[She looks at Clover]
|
|
Fate? Also don't lie you clearly enjoy pushing in.
|
|
Precisely! Exhibit A!
|
|
[CABBY PUSHES CLOVER OFF THE CLIFF] [ALL GASP]
|
|
[A gentle breeze blows her right back to where she was standing before being pushed] [CLOVER LAUGHS]
|
|
I've been studying Clover's strange abilities since Day 1. And I've concluded some fine data: She's... lucky.
|
|
...WHAT?!
|
|
[Calm Down Cabana] Sure, sometimes things work out for me. But I think a positive outlook can will anything into existence. Without that, we'd all be doomed.
|
|
As long as Clover is heavily involved in some capacity and her fate is on the line, we shouuuuuuld be successful!
|
|
Well thank you for that very carefully crafted observation but I am not relying on otherworldly forces again, so-
|
|
We can see if your method measures up. But! Only if you turn that frown upside down!
|
|
Eh um I'm not following- AH!
|
|
[Clover grabs her mouth and turns it upside down]
|
|
There we go! Hehehehe!
|
|
[Scene switches to the Thinkers]
|
|
So I think-
|
|
The best action-
|
|
Oh oh sorry... uh...
|
|
Uh, so... er...
|
|
What I meant was...
|
|
I mean uh...
|
|
Uh...
|
|
Er...
|
|
Oh I'm so sorry, please continue.
|
|
It would be unwise of me to attempt control.
|
|
[Calm Down Cabana] Everyone is so afraid of coming across as a leader that we're in complete gridlock. I'd expose them all as the hooligans they are but I'm on quite thin ice as is.
|
|
Why don't we all just focus on one side of the contraption and we'll put them together at the end! That way we all have an equal say.
|
|
That's brilliant! Ah..
|
|
Very wise... oh...
|
|
Oh, sorry.
|
|
My apologies.
|
|
Haha! Okay we should stop that now.
|
|
[Scene switches to the Sinkers]
|
|
Alright Sinkers! With Lifering gone, we need someone to make an obligatory motivational speech. So if you'll allow me, I have a few remarks prepared.
|
|
[CLEARS THROAT]
|
|
...
|
|
Ah, very succinctly worded Box. Ingenius!
|
|
So powerful. Ah! A true poet.
|
|
[She tears up and blows her nose]
|
|
[Calm Down Cabana] Are we gonna build our contraption out of glass? Because they're being utterly transparent! And I'm gonna crack.
|
|
I'm sorry I got so emotional there. Box, that speech took some real chutzpah!
|
|
Forget repulsed. I will literally VOMIT right now.
|
|
Tea Kettle just wants to stay in the game. Go easy on Box, after all... he's the only reason we're even tolerating each other, right?
|
|
I... never... said that.
|
|
You didn't need to.
|
|
...Hey Box! ... and TK... Uh, need a hand? I've got zero!
|
|
[Clover and Bow look at the contraction they made using sticks to keep the egg safe]
|
|
Hoowee! Looking neato team!
|
|
[CLOVER LAUGHS]
|
|
Sorry Test Tube... Ha... I can't take you seriously still looking like that!
|
|
[Clover fixes Test Tube's mouth]
|
|
Thanks! Hey Cabby! Ca-can you remind me what the melting temperature of plastic is? My clumsy self always forgets.
|
|
[CABBY SIGHS]
|
|
I dunno Test Tube, it's clear you're not interested in utilizing my database.
|
|
Oh so you wanna sabotage us now, huh? Way to be a SNOLLYGOSTER!
|
|
Snollygoster?
|
|
[Looks up the term 'snollygoster' in a file] [SHE GASPS]
|
|
How crude!
|
|
[Calm Down Cabana] MmmmMMM!!! The conflict is TOO MUCH! It's like... when you're drawing with chalk on the pavement and it snaps MID MARK! Unbearable! Without that tension... we'd be golden!
|
|
And voila!
|
|
[They demonstrate the Thinker's contraction, which is a poorly made paper box] [PATHETIC FANFARE]
|
|
...This looks like... dumb garbage! It barely holds together!
|
|
But our team is being held together! And that's what counts!
|
|
The sum of all parts is greater than the whole...
|
|
I think you have that backwards, my dear.
|
|
[Silver tries drops the end into the box, and it cracks on the ground] [Paintbrush and Silver look in the box and realize that it was missing a bottom]
|
|
...Oh.
|
|
Ohhh, we only made five sides! Sorry for the miscounting, lads.
|
|
[Paintbrush looks angrily at the box] [PAINTBRUSH INHALES] [SIGHS]
|
|
It's alright Thinkers! I have... thoughts... but does anyone else have suggestions?
|
|
[No one speaks up]
|
|
My goodness you all, get a grip! We can make an actual plan without designating a leader.
|
|
But you heard MePhone, once our egg is cracked we're done for and- uh oh. It's getting on me...!
|
|
MePhone's not here, is he? Yin, your eggshaped physique is our ticket now. Tall One, get digging. We just need, to think!
|
|
[Tea Kettle builds a wooden contraption for the egg as Box watches]
|
|
My goodness, Box! What handiwork skills you have! I hope TK hasn't been TOO distracting!
|
|
Hun, frankly, you know bupkis. I built nearly the whole darn thing and-
|
|
[Nickel smirks at her]
|
|
I- I mean yes! Box is a strong collaborator. Can't say the same about everyone, especially people who-
|
|
-withhold information! We need to work together as a unit or we'll rue it!
|
|
Agreed. And that includes listening to others for insight!
|
|
You guys, all of your ideas are valuable. But your egos aren't. No offense. So I'm gonna need those smiles to flip. Hmm? Do you guys wanna flip those frowns???
|
|
[Clover slowly approaches Test Tube, who is fed up with her]
|
|
GET YOUR PAWS OFF ME! I'll be frank. I'm concerned-
|
|
-about this little... "what have you." Your vocabulary and little snacks aren't gonna manipulate MY number one ally!
|
|
Hmm... number one you say?
|
|
[Balloon is shocked by this]
|
|
Eh I mean one of them yeah, look! My buddy's coming with ME!
|
|
[He grabs Box with his foot]
|
|
No way Jose!
|
|
[She also grabs Box, starting a Tug of War over him]
|
|
Number one, huh? Well I'm glad the transparency is across the board.
|
|
HELP ME!
|
|
ok.
|
|
[He helps Nickel pull] [ALL STRAINING]
|
|
I... don't... want... to-
|
|
-argue anymore! PLEASE! It's not worth it!
|
|
Well maybe it is. Especially when some people have had a bad history of protecting eggs.
|
|
[TEST TUBE GASPS]
|
|
I CAN'T TAKE IT!
|
|
[He melts into a little puddle on the floor]
|
|
Well the only one who will need protecting... is you! At the VOTE TONIGHT-!
|
|
[Test Tube slips on Goo, making her trip and sending the hammer flying]
|
|
AYAYAY!
|
|
[The hammer ricochets off the trees, ground, and even Bows head] [The Sinkers continue fighting over Box, straining to be the side who gets him] [The straining ends up throwing him into the air]
|
|
[ALL GASP]
|
|
BOX!!!!
|
|
[The hammer is flying towards Clover, who is unaware of the danger] [Before it can hit her, Box intercepts the impact]
|
|
(Slow-mo) NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
|
|
(GASP)
|
|
[After saving Clover, Box tumbles down a steep hill and catches ablaze when he lands at the bottom]
|
|
Everybody, stop the challenge! Medical! MEDICAL!!
|
|
Ohhh... NOW he's watching...
|
|
[Cabby and Test Tube both look sorry for what their fight caused] [Yin-Yang rests in the ground, mostly unaware of the tragedy]
|
|
(Muffled) Huh?
|
|
Stay down... uh... egg... You don't want to see this...
|
|
Yes! I'm an egg.
|
|
He's not breathing! Does anyone know CPR?
|
|
[Scene cuts to Indefinite Island]
|
|
Huh... suddenly I feel... EXTREMELY needed.
|
|
Yeah right.
|
|
[Scene cuts back to Paradise Island]
|
|
We need the on-site doctor! Stat!
|
|
Wait, we've had an on-site doctor this entire time?
|
|
Oh, absolutely.
|
|
[MePhone signals the cameras to cut] [The "on-site" doctor, Dr.Fizz, arrives to help Box]
|
|
Dr.Fizz
Everyone, please remain calm. I'm going to go ahead and check his vitals.
|
|
[Yang starts bowing down to him]
|
|
I am not worthy! Oh Dr. Fizz! Your Bubblyness!
|
|
Dr.Fizz
Sir, I'm going to need-
|
|
Oh Dr. Fizz. Bless your soul!
|
|
[Dr.Fizz glares at him and he pauses his praise]
|
|
Dr.Fizz
I'm going to need you all to step back immediately so I can determine a diagnosis.
|
|
ONE INTENSE MEDICAL EVACUATION LATER...
|
|
So what's the update, Doc? How's he looking?
|
|
Dr.Fizz
Unfortunately, the trauma Box has experienced during the fall is preventing him from getting proper oxygen and we're going to need to undergo more extensive treatment off of the island.
|
|
So to be clear, you are pulling Box from the game.
|
|
Dr.Fizz
I think the risk is too great to keep him here in this state, that is correct.
|
|
[ALL GASP]
|
|
We are so so sorry Box, for our mishandling of the situation.
|
|
Box spared his own life to save Clover! The hammer was headed straight towards her head! He's truly a hero... And it's all my fault.... and Cabby's.
|
|
CLOVER?! I knew it! What's lucky for her is painful for a-
|
|
[He slips on a banana peel and trips while approaching her]
|
|
AHH!!! WAH! DOCTOR!
|
|
You're fine.
|
|
[Clover looks at Nickel in shock]
|
|
[Calm Down Cabana] Maybe Cabby was right... I do have a gift... but if so, I never considered the effect it could have... on others. That hammer was meant for me. (GASP) Maybe it's a curse?!
|
|
With everything going on... I just wanted to apologiiii- EGH.
|
|
[COUGHS]
|
|
Uh, sorry, I'm trying to-
|
|
Nickel, I really appreciate the gesture, but... you don't need to do this.
|
|
Yeah, no. I wanna hear him say it.
|
|
[MURMURS] I'm sorry.
|
|
What? What's that, hun?
|
|
I'M SORRY! (COUGHS) Ugh, my mouth feels numb.
|
|
There there.
|
|
I shouldn't have been so territorial over Box or- or made you guys feel undervalued even if it was kind of enjoyable, to be honest. It did the one thing I was trying to avoid.
|
|
Eh, I could've been more respectful myself.
|
|
[Tea Kettle pulls in Nickel and Balloon for a hug]
|
|
Wah!
|
|
[After the embrace, Tea Kettle looks at the pic-nix table from the beginning of the episode and realizes the food is all gone]
|
|
Oh my gosh. He ate my food! BOX ATE MY FOOD! Do you guys see that? Haha! He ate it all! (LAUGHS)
|
|
[Calm Down Cabana] Yeah, the relationship with Box was all strategy... But FINALLY! Someone appreciates my efforts. (SNIFFLES) And for that... I will always appreciate him...
|
|
[Meanwhile, The Floor feasts on the discarded food from the table]
|
|
Oh my goodness... these deviled eggs! Mmm... Nobody will hold me back anymore! Muahahahahahahahahaha-!!
|
|
[MePhone spots The Floor]
|
|
Oh.
|
|
Jeez, and I thought I was the fat slob. Anyways, after an intense medical evacuation of the biggest threat in the game, how will the game shake-up next? Find out next time on, Inanimate Insanity Invitational.
