We've been kicking this hill's ass all day.

It's only right we tell it our names.

Roll call!

- Steve! - Snot!

- Toshi! - Toshi's friend!

Sllort!

You know, Sllort, I'm so glad

we met you out here on the sledding hill.

Adding you to our crew

has made this the best winter break ever.

I know. If I had not met you guys,

I would be so nervous for my first day of school tomorrow,

but you can show me

how things are different here from Sweden.

I can show you how to use the water fountains.

In America, if you suck on the spout super hard,

you don't even need to press the button!

Old Man Powell: I told you kids to stay off my sledding hill!

This is for private events only!

Now get!

Oh, crap, Old Man Powell.

If I catch you here again, I'll kill you!

I'm not afraid of jail!

I've already done what I was put on this Earth to do --

piss in every single Marriott-owned hotel pool.

Oh, yum!

Oh, they're just burs.

What did you think they were?

Come on, Steve.

I don't think about what I eat.

Should we warm up with some hot chocolate at Steve's place?

Sorry, but my host family expects me home

before the Earth swallows the Sun

and the dark sky stares down at me

with its million tiny eyeballs.

Whoa, Swedish girls make everything sound so cool.

Read this e-mail from my doctor.

"Without major lifestyle changes,

you will not live to see your next birthday,

and I for one will shed no tears."

Wow, that really takes the sting out of it.

I admire your tongue, weird boy,

Bye, boys.

Who the [bleep] is that?

Her name is Sllort.

She's Swedish, and her sled is made of whale bones.

She's the perfect addition to our crew.

Ha, good luck with that.

You guys are nerds,

and hot girls hang with cools.

When school starts,

she'll see there are better options

and ditch you.

Damn, he may have a point.

Hey, if you're thinking about expanding,

who has a tongue that can point to his own face

and wants to be in your crew?

This guy.

Regarding Sllort, I wish we had more time

to solidify things with her.

Then we'd be so tight

that she'd never consider leaving us.

Sure, whatever.

Look what you're doing to our family!

What are we going to do?

I'll tell you what we're not going to do --

Give it up for our new foreign exchange student, Sllort.

Aah! Aah!

Sllort has prepared a few words to introduce herself.

And now a riddle --

I possess a head and a tail, but a body I do not have.

What am I?

A coin.

A simple coin!

Amazing.

Riddles are back, baby!

See?

She'll be scooped up by the cools in no time.

I'm not worried about it.

Principal Lewis, you have to see this!

The school has been vandalized!

So? I don't care about this place.

It's about you!

Sllort, you're suspended.

Looks like we just got some bonus time.

Police coming through!

You're under arrest.

Arrest her for a little graffiti?

No, for a little murder.

[ All gasp ] You see that dumpster?

We found a dead body in it this morning.

[ Screaming ]

Man, look at that crazy thing.

The body was next to

some blue and yellow spray-paint cans.

So once you guys found the vandal,

This wasn't part of the plan.

Told you she'd ditch you for the cools.

We just wanted time

to become better friends with Sllort,

not get her arrested for murder.

We have to come clean.

Then we'd get arrested,

Hey, what if we solve the murder ourselves?

I-If we find the real killer, she'll be released,

and she'll never know we framed her.

That's true.

Then she'll think we're super cool.

This murder might actually be a blessing in disguise.

Great. It's a plan.

Now can we talk about that murder victim?

He had no head.

Imagine getting as far as he did in life

with that handicap only to wind up murdered.

so the cops have to release you.

Oh, I-I guess we're announcing other people's ideas now.

That's cool.

Anyway, we're going to fix this, Sllort.

Thank you.

What are you doing here, Billy?

I use my new tongue on the prisoners!
