Original subtitles

You know, I mean, that's why some people have to wear a helmet in the shower.

It makes sense, dude. It makes sense.

Now, Kid Danger and I are going to be live streaming for about another 20

minutes, so... Yep, and the name of our next video caller is... J .D.

J .D.

Could be initials.

There's only one way to find out.

Hey, Captain Man and Kid Danger!

Sorry about that.

Seems like we had a technical problem there.

Why does he keep disconnecting me? Probably because you keep calling him.

All right. We got another video caller who goes by the name Mr.

E. Person.

Ooh, Mr. E. Person.

It is I, Dr.

Minyak.

Oh, Mr. E. Person. I get it, yeah.

What do you want, Minyak?

To challenge you, Captain Man.

He wants to challenge you. Uh -huh. Challenge accepted.

But you don't even know what my challenge is.

Don't care, because I can beat you at anything.

Yeah, so, what is your big challenge for Captain Man? Yeah, what do you want to

lose to me at?

Oh, I shan't lose, because I challenge you, Captain Man, to a contest of

spelling!

Spelling? Yes.

Perhaps you know that Swellview's yearly spelling bee takes place next Friday.

Uh -oh.

Wait, where are you going?

Shh, when you got the goal, you got the goal.

You and I shall both enter the bee, and when it's over, the entire world shall

see which of us is the winner and which is the loser!

Fine, let's do it. No, I'm sorry, can you please hold?

What?

Why are you pushing me?

You can't spell.

What do you mean I can't spell?

I mean, I've read your texts and emails, and you're a terrible speller.

Uh, you guys, I... Just a second. I find your comments offensive.

Well, I'm sorry. You're just mean to me sometimes. All right.

Okay, spell sometimes. What?

Spell sometimes.

Okay. All right.

F. Mm -hmm. F?

You. Wrong. Right? What?

Well, that was a tricky one. Nah, it really wasn't, dude.

Hey, can I please say something? What? What?

You can't do this.

Why? Because I'm going to be in the spelling bee. You?

Yeah. I've won the last three years in a row.

And if I win this year, I'll be the first 12 -year -old ever to win four

straight.

Oh, Charlotte.

Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte.

You ever think about anybody but yourself?

What?

I can't have this one thing? You just want this one thing.

And you, as my friend, you won't let me have this one moment in the sun to beat

Dr. Minyak at spelling. Just one sunny moment.

But the guy that's counselor at school said it would be great for me. Yeah,

great for you.

See, for you.

Must it all be about you, Charlotte?

Okay, fine.

Sorry.

I hope so.

your challenge, so what's the bet? The bet is whichever of us loses the

bee must ride a child's tricycle all the way from Swellview to California and

back!

I was not expecting that. Yeah, pretty weird bet, dude.

But I ain't gonna lose, so you got a bet, maniac.

Oh, lovely.

And you just wait, Captain Man. You will lose.

And while you're tricycling to California and back, I shout!

You had more to say, but you didn't care. Nope.

Well, I guess I'll just call the B -board and tell them I'm not going to

this year. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Don't do that.

But I thought you don't want me to win. Oh, I don't. He doesn't. I want you to

lose on purpose so I can win.

Okay. And you can help make sure that Dr. Maniac doesn't cheat.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

You're a terrible speller. How are you going to win?

Oh, I'm going to cheat. She's going to cheat good.

It all just kind of happened. I wanted an after -school job, but then an

indestructible superhero hired me to be his sidekick.

Now we blow bubbles and fight crime.

Feels good.

Hey, Trent, Mary, you're on in about 12 seconds.

Thanks. Hello, my name is Mary Gaberman, and this is Swellview's 42nd Annual

Spelling Bee!

We're live in 4, 3, 2... Hello, and welcome! I'm Trent Ober...

And also, oddly, two adult men.

First, Swellview's very own superhero, Captain Man.

And Charlotte.

And our final contestant is four -time convicted felon, Dr. Horatio T.

Minyak.

Yeah. Before we go in, let's do a quick cheat check. Cheat check? Let's do it.

So, if we want Ray to say the letter G, what starts with G?

Uh, grapefruit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good, good, good, good, good, good, good.

Okay. So, if we want Ray to say the letter E, you hold up then.

Egg. Nice.

All right, dude.

Let's, uh, go.

Okay.

Hey. Hey.

Can I have some of that ketchup to put on my finger?

No. Get out of here, guy.

What are you sucking your finger for?

Hey,

Piper, perfect.

Sit on that side so me and Jasper can sit together? No.

What? No? But me and Jasper want to sit together. Not my problem.

We were just gonna... Two seconds, everyone. Please take your seats now.

Piper, just move, okay? I'm not gonna!

It's all right. Just put up. Fine, fine.

All right, put up. All right.

Pardon me. Coming through. Sorry.

Sorry. In four, three, two... And we are back here at the Swell... your spelling

bee where things are just about to get underway.

That's right, Trent. And as is tradition, the first word goes to the

last year's spelling bee, Sherlock Paggie.

It's Charlotte Page.

It's the same every year.

Okay, Charlotte.

Your word is imbecile.

That is correct.

Okay, next up is Carlos Calderon.

Carlos,

your word is... Spas to Henry and Jasper.

Spas to Henry and Jasper.

Are you guys ready for a sound check?

Yep, go.

Prodigious. Prodigious. B -R -O -D -I -G -I -O -U -S.

Prodigious. And that was correct.

Hey, I'm the one who gets to say if it's correct.

That is correct.

Now to spell his first word of the bee.

Similar to the rhinoceros.

I believe hypotenuse is spelled... At.

Honey. H.

F -U -G -E.

Montage.

F -L -A -M -B -E.

Bombay.

Nice!

M -O -N -I -U -M.

Dumbamonium.

Just a moment.

S -U -B -T -E -R -F -U -G -E. Substitute. Thank you.

B -L -A -F -H -E -R -W.

O. Wrong.

He said O, but the next letter is H, so he's wrong. Now, buzz him out.

but would like to visit the restroom, now would be a good idea.

I'm starving.

Give me some of your food.

No, no, no, no, no. What are you doing?

You! You can't eat my apple.

Fine, then give me the egg.

No, no, no, no. Are you insane?

Okay, A and E are two of this country's most popular vowels.

What are you saying?

Hey, hey!

No loud talking in the auditorium. Yeah, yeah, fine.

We're very sorry.

evicted. What?

I wanted one egg. What?

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Guy, what are you doing eating my stuff?

Oh, yeah, I thought you left.

I thought I left. What is that? What are you doing? Did you open my yogurt? Why

would you open my yogurt, man?

To dip the carrot.

What is that? What is that right there? Is that powdered sugar?

What happened?

Jasper got thrown out of the spelling bee and some guy ate a bunch of my food.

Then how are you going to help Ray spell words? He's too stupid to spell by

himself. That's the problem.

Look, if we can't help Ray spell, then we got to find a way to make Dr. Maniac

lose. Oh, I know what to do.

What? Tell me.

Tell me.

Okay.

After Dr.

Maniac spells his next word, You stand up and challenge the spelling. But if he

spells it right, why should I challenge it? Because I'm going to change the

spelling of whatever word he spells.

You can't change the spelling of a word.

Yes, I can.

How? Meet the Internet.

You're going to change the spelling of a word on the entire Internet?

Yeah, if you let me hang up this telephone.

All right, okay, okay, bye.

Challenge the spelling.

I got it, I will.

Okay, hang up.

No, you hang up there.

Oh, my God.

Dr. Minyak.

Okay,

Dr. Minyak, your word is zeitgeist.

Zeitgeist. Z -E -I -T -G -I -S -T.

Zeitgeist.

challenge. Young man, Dr. Minyak spelled the word correctly.

Yeah, it's right here in this dictionary book.

Right, but the internet is way more up to date than dictionary books,

which are made from trees.

Am I right?

Okay, LeVar, please check the spelling of Zeitgeist online.

V -E -I -T -G -E -I -S -T -Q.

Q? Q?

Uh,

yes. Can't forget the final Q in the word zeitgeist. What?

All right, it seems that our dictionary book is wrong, which means so is Dr.

Minyak.

get your tricycle ready to ride to California and back.

Yeah, Minyak.

Yeah.

Well, excuse me, Captain Man, but you haven't won this bee yet.

If that girl wins, then you also lose, and you will have to pedal with me to

California.

The word to spell is pectoral.

Pectoral. Okay, no problem.

I believe pectoral is spelled...

Okay,

I got this. Okay,

uh, pectoral. Well, obviously it starts with a P.

The last two letters of pectoral.

Okay, Charlotte, if you could spell pectoral, then you win.

P -E -C -T -O -R -A -F.

Pectoral.

Pedal the tricycle to California and back.

Nah. What, dude? You made a bet?

Yeah, but... Maniacs aren't really gonna go through with that.
