Hurry up and don't be late

Got a secret I can't tell

Flap your fins, flip your tail

School's out, ring the bell

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

(LAUGHS)

Welcome to Debate Club practice.

The topic is "The pros and cons of video games."

Steve, Shellsea, I know you've prepared your arguments,

-so let's get started! -(CLICKING)

Uh, thanks, Shellsea.

Steve, your rebuttal?

Um... video games are cool.

Bea, this play is weird.

I don't get what's going on.

So, on debate team

you need to be able to argue either side of an issue.

For example,

I happen to love gaming,

but I realize that playing too long

is giving me a nasty case of gamer's eye

-and joystick thumb. -Rad.

And Shellsea, maybe you're wondering how you can argue for video games.

Well, there's the fun factor and...

oh, the enhanced hand-eye coordination.

-And, uh... -GIRL: Don't forget winning.

-Winning is everything. -(SOFT ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)

Then there's the alternative social environment

provided by online gaming,

learning to process intense visual stimuli...

(POP MUSIC PLAYING)

And don't forget the development

of lightning-fast cat-like reflexes.

-(GRUNTS) -Ooh!

-Um, are you okay? -(LAUGHING)

That must've been a level 18 chair wizard that hit me. (CHUCKLES)

Hey, I'm Steve Jackson.

Of course.

Hey, Steve. Peace.

Cool.

And what's your name?

-(NERVOUSLY) Me? -Yeah, you've got a name.

(CHUCKLES) Don't... don't you?

Yeah, I guess I do.

(LAUGHS) Wh... what's your name?

-"Angel-ah." -Nice to meet you, Angela.

"Angel-ah."

"Angel-ah."

Well, now you know my name...

(CHUCKLES) and I'm still clueless about yours.

(CHUCKLES) Oh! I'm Oscar my name is!

Ooh, that sounded like a syntax error.

(OSCAR AND ANGELA LAUGH)

I'm captain of the Saltwater High Debate Team.

I came over to check out the competition,

but I didn't realize he was gonna be

(EMPHATICALLY) so cute.

(LAUGHS) I don't even know how to respond to that.

Well, you could say

we're going to hang out together after school.

Wow! I really don't know how to respond to that!

I mean yes! Yes!

That is absolutely what is happening after school.

(EMPHATICALLY) See you then.

(EMPHATICALLY) It's a date.

(CHUCKLES, SHRIEKS)

(CHUCKLES) Gamer's eye.

Um, what just happened?

O.M.G.! She's perfect for me!

But what if she finds out that I'm a dork?

(STRAINING) Ninety-eight, ninety-nine.

Phew.

Dude, Angela's gonna be so impressed

when she gets here and sees you've been pumping iron.

It's "Angel-ah," and yeah,

if I can get my Barbarian through 40 more reps

before she gets here, his abs will hit level 16.

That means they can shoot fireballs.

There's no way she'll think I'm a nerd after seeing that.

Hey! Come on, Milo.

Let's give Oscar and his new friend some alone time.

Allow me to just slip into my evening attire.

Oh man. Bea,

-I know this has to be hard for you. -What does?

The whole "Angela thing."

(CRYING) This isn't the way my life was supposed to turn out,

but it did!

You and me can always be...

friends.

(LAUGHS) Oh Oscar,

you're so funny.

Yeah, funny.

But look, I just...

I just don't want things to be weird between us, you know?

-(AWKWARDLY) Um, me either. -(DOORBELL RINGS)

She-she... she's here!

-(SHOUTS) Milo, let's go! -(HORN BLOWS)

What, this?

In two months, everybody's gonna be wearing this.

Hi, (SINGSONG VOICE) Angela. Bye, (SINGSONG VOICE) Angela.

It's Angel-ah. Rhymes with strange-ala.

Get it? Ha ha ha ha ha.

-Oh. -(HORN BLOWS)

Now you kids stay out of trouble.

Hey, Angela.

Hey, dude. I hope you're ready for some fierce gaming competition.

(MIMICKING GUNFIRE, EXPLOSIONS)

"No!" "Over here, he's dead!"

(SCREAMS, GAGS)

And game over.

Yeah, but we probably shouldn't play video games.

I mean since that's the debate topic and you're my opponent and all.

Oh okay.

Well, we don't need video games.

There's other kinds of fun.

There's other kinds of fun?

-Let me show you. -(SONG BEGINS)

Outside the game Level up your brain

Have an adventure Impress your friend

Life's a game And love's the same...

(VROOMS)

Have a good time Go on some dates

Go ice skating Do a figure eight

Life's a game And love's the same

Are you ready, fish? Are you ready, fish?

Are you ready, fish? Go!

Go, fish!

Get a little crazy

Go, fish!

With your special lady

Go, fish!

No time to be lazy

Go, fish!

With your special lady

-Come on! -(SONG ENDS)

You're kicking us out, right?

(STRAINED) Yes.

You know when I first met you,

I was afraid you might think I was just a nerd.

You're not just a nerd.

You can also dance on the tables in a fancy restaurant.

(CHUCKLES) You started it.

So, do you feel like you won?

Yeah. You?

Yeah.

Funny, usually two fish can't win first place at the same time.

Winning is everything, Oscar.

(SINGSONG VOICE) Remember!

Only one of us can win the debate.

Ooh! See you on the battlefield!

Hmm.

All right, now where are my debate notes?

I know they were on me when we went out on the date.

Did she... oh!

I knew it was too good to be true.

And so, since video games rot your brain,

watch cartoons or something.

A compelling argument, Steve Jackson.

-What do you think, Oscar? -(WHINES)

-(HORN BLOWS) -What up, bro? How's debate going?

Terrible. I think Angela just pretended to like me, so she can win the debate.

Oh, you're crazypants.

I think someone needs a tickle-wickle to cheer them up.

-(LAUGHING) -Dude. Dude.

Coochie coochie coochie coochie coo.

Coochie coo.

I... I guess you're right, Milo.

I... I let my imagination run wild.

Why would she offer to hold all my files, back up my computer,

and drive me to the finals tonight if she was spying?

You know what? I can't wait to debate against her.

Up top, bro.

(BOTH GIBBER, LAUGH)

Now get out of here and let me work, you dingus.

(LAUGHS)

Hey, Milo, have you seen what's going on back there?

MILO: Hey, isn't that...

BEA: Yeah, that guy has the same helmet as you.

-(HORN BLOWS) -What's up with that?

I told you, girl.

This is the style.

-And so, in conclusion... -(CAMERA CLICKING)

...video games are... are a menace to society.

-Thank you for your time. -(SHRIEKS)

-(GASPS) -Angela?

Oh. Uh, hey,

this isn't my school. (CHUCKLING NERVOUSLY)

I think there must be a wormhole in here somewhere.

That I fell through up there.

Are you sure it wasn't the wormhole in my heart?

-What? -Nothing.

Okay. Well, I'll see you at the debate tonight.

(CAMERA CLICKS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)

All right, everyone,

allow me to present Oscar the Fish,

captain of the Freshwater High Debate Team,

versus our very own Debate Team Captain

-Angela Fishburger. -(APPLAUDING)

SHARK: The debate topic is "The pros and cons of video games".

-Go, Oscar! Whoo! -Yeah! Debate!

-Yeah, you kill her! Kill her! -Whoo! Love it!

My opening argument:

You're a horrible person and you've ruined my life!

Rebuttal?

Wha... Oscar, why would you say that?

I... I thought you were a beautiful plasma elf,

and I was some kind of happy forest gnome,

we were gonna have lots of adventures

and things were kinda good, you know?

But then you turned out to be nothing but an evil wood troll!

And I realized my fantasy was...

just a fantasy.

Man, I thought this thing was gonna be (SINGSONG VOICE) boring.

But things are sure starting to heat up.

Oscar, why are you saying all this?

Is there a warlock out there somewhere mind-controlling my man?

You just pretended to like me, so you could win the debate!

-(SHRIEKS) -I guess it was kinda my fault

for believing a girl as cool as you would like a guy like me.

Is that true, Angela? I thought I coached you better than that.

Oscar, I didn't spy on you for the debate.

I spied on you for love.

(SCREAMS) Is that your book of evil spells, you witch?

No, I'm actually heavy into scrapbooking.

I just liked you so much,

I always wanted to be able to look at you all the time,

like all the time.

Oscar, I don't care about winning or losing the debate anymore.

I just wanna spend time with you.

Hey, that sounds like something I would do.

We are soulmates.

Oh, that's creepy and romantic.

Okay, but that still doesn't explain what happened to my debate notes.

I stole 'em, you jerks!

When are you gonna learn? I steal everything.

I'm Randy Pincherson.

Man, I should've seen that coming.

So, what do you say, toots?

We could stand here like ijits and talk about video games

or grab a malted at the Hokey Poke and talk about video games.

I vote for the latter!

I win!

(BOTH LAUGH)

-So, who won? -Well, I guess they both did.

Hey, Oscar!

I cannot believe you ate an entire apple pie

at the Viking Pie King.

What do you mean? I didn't do that.

That's the only way you can get one of those.

I gave Milo 20 fish dollars for this!

-Everyone wins! -(HORN BLOWS)

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

(KISSES)

(SINGING) You make me go step, girl...

(SIGHS) I could listen to Brandon Bubbler sing all day.

His music speaks to me.

With chocolate swirl

Step, girl, let's never be apart...

FEMALE ANNOUNCER: We'll be back with

"Brandon Bubbler's Power Hour" right after this.

MALE ANNOUNCER SPEAKS:

Haven't you always dreamed of being not tragically forgettable?

This weekend make your dreams come true, true, true!

Join us for the annual Little Fish Sunshine beauty pageant!

(SHRIEKS) You guys, we should totally do this!

-(CRICKETS CHIRP) -Finberley, Ew.

Yeah, I mean beauty pageants are bad news.

Besides, we already know we're fabulous!

MALE ANNOUNCER: This year's winning princess

will be crowned by none other than music sensation...

(HIGH-PITCHED) Brandon Bubbler!

-(ALL GASP) -The winner gets to meet Brandon Bubbler.

Maybe beauty pageants aren't that bad.

I mean, as young women coming into our own,

shouldn't we be challenging ourselves with new experiences?

I will totally stuff myself into a pageant dress to meet Brandon.

-(ALL CHATTER) -Let's do it.

-(CHOMPS) -Guys, here's the situation...

winning the Little Fish Sunshine beauty pageant is now

the number one priority in my life. What are you doing?

Uh, Bea, what does it look like we're doing?

Heads up, bro!

-(MUMBLES) Okay. -(SPLATS)

You're still throwing them too high.

Well, maybe your face is too low.

This is super serious. I need to win the pageant,

so I can meet Brandon Bubbler.

I bet you Brandon Bubbler can't catch a sandw...

Oof! Milo, I wasn't ready.

-MILO: Heads up! -You'll come support me, right?

Girl, I can do even better than that.

Come on, I need to show you something.

You see, Bea,

when I was a baby, I wasn't just a regular baby.

I was a beautiful baby,

-and I was a superstar. -(BABY MILO LAUGHS)

-(CAMERA CLICKING) -MILO: I won ribbons,

trophies... oh, oh!

And a gift certificate for a cheese log.

(GASPS) Wow.

So, why did you stop doing pageants?

I'm not a baby anymore, Bea.

(GASPS) With all your experience, you can totally help me win.

BOTH: Hooray!

-Huh. Wow. There's a lot of girls here. -Yeah.

And they're all really...

sparkly.

But none of 'em have a secret weapon like I do.

It's me!

Ah! I'm gonna find our seats.

All right, let's go over some moves.

Show me pretty hands!

Nice.

Now show me fierce.

Rawr.

Okay, okay, now blow me kisses.

Oh, come on, Milo.

-I am not gonna blow kisses. -(HUMPHS)

Do you know how I won the title Ultra-Grand Baby Angel?

I blew kisses all over those judges and they loved it.

But I mean if you don't wanna meet Brandon Bubbler,

that's cool.

No, wait!

How's that?

Girl, you all right.

Bea, get your princess butt moving.

Everyone's lining up for the first competition.

Thanks, Milo. See you on stage.

Break a cheese log!

-(BIG BAND MUSIC PLAYING) -(APPLAUDING)

(GRUNTS)

(SHOUTING) Welcome, everyone

to the Little Fish Sunshine beauty pageant.

Eee! This is so exciting.

Let's hear it for our judges.

-Ms. Lips... -Oh, I love bar mitzvahs.

MR. MUSSELS: ...Coach Salmons...

Just remember, girls, beauty is on the inside!

Except for today.

MR. MUSSELS: ...And the waitress from the Hokey Poke, Bassy.

(COUGHS)

So, let's get this party started with our evening gown competition.

(APPLAUSE)

-(SONG BEGINS) -FEMALE VOICE: Designer...

(CAMERA CLICKING)

FEMALE VOICE: Fashion...

FEMALE VOICE: Focus...

(AUDIENCE LAUGH)

FEMALE VOICE: Passion.

(SONG ENDS)

-It's go time. -(SONG BEGINS)

Yes, you are the best Yes, you are the best

Yes, you are the best In any contest...

Yeah! You go, Bea!

Yes, you are the best yes, you are the best

Yes, you are the best In any contest

Boom shaka ka boom shaka ka

Bubbling wine now don't forget don't fly

Yes, you are the best yes, you are the best

-(SONG ENDS) -That went well, I think.

(AUDIENCE CHEERING)

(WHOOPS)

-Ooh! -Ooh?

Senorita!

You tore it up out there.

I didn't get an "ooh," Milo.

How am I gonna get to meet Brandon Bubbler if I don't get an "ooh"?

Give me some advice, coach.

If there's one thing I learned on the baby circuit,

it's that you stay on that stage till you fill that diaper,

make it their problem.

Brandon, get ready for some Q and "Ooh."

(SHOUTING) Okay, Miss Clamantha,

what do you feel is the biggest challenge facing our young people today?

Hi, Oscar!

(SCREAMS)

-(APPLAUDING) -(CLAMANTHA LAUGHS)

Miss Bea, if you had one wish, what would it be?

Oh, that I'd get to marry Brandon Bubbler.

Who doesn't?

(NERVOUS LAUGH) Just kidding. Not really.

No, I'd wish for world peace.

(LAUGHS) She's so naive.

-Next up we have... -Uh, I mean I wish

I could find a cure for rainy days!

(CRIES) There is no cure!

-(BOTH GRUNT) -(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)

Thank you, Miss Bea.

(CRIES)

(LAUGHS) And so that's when I won Ultra Cutie Supreme.

(YELLS)

Milo, I'm dying out there! You have to help me!

Brandon Bubbler!

(YELLS)

Relax, girl.

The talent competition is next

and you know you gots that.

You're right. I am very talented at being talented.

I just need a little more make-up.

More! More!

(YELLING) Make me pretty!

-(DEEP VOICE) I have to win! -Ah!

(MOANING)

(MOANING CONTINUES)

Whoa. (GRUNTS)

-Bea? -Hey, she's waking up.

(GROANS)

So, how'd I do?

-BOTH: Uhh... -We'll always be your friends, Bea.

(MOANS)

And now, before we start our final competition

I'd like to introduce y'all to our guest of honor,

Mr. Brandon Bubbler.

-(CHEERING) -I love you!

Oh, he's so tiny.

That's it, Milo.

Brandon Bubbler is right over there and yet...

it's like we've never been further apart.

Now it's time for our final competition.

Please, Milo, this is my last chance.

I have to meet Brandon Bubbler!

What am I gonna do to win?

-Cute. -Cute?

Bea, no pageant judge can resist cute.

I can make you so cute that it'll blow them all away!

But I have to warn you...

it won't be pretty.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS)

I'll do it.

-(BIG BAND MUSIC PLAYS) -(LIGHT APPLAUSE)

Thank you, Miss Shellsea.

Next up we have Bea Goldfishberg.

What's going on?

She is about to win it all.

-But I... -Shh! Here she (SINGSONG VOICE) comes!

(SENTIMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING)

-Oh, she's so cute. -Oh, she's cute as a button.

Nothing's gonna top that.

(RATTLES)

(SQUEAKS)

-JUDGES: Aww. -Ooh, that's very, very cute.

(BEA'S VOICE LAUGHS) It's working,

and now to seal the deal.

-(MEOWS) -ALL: Aww.

It's so cute.

-Oh gosh, that's adorable. -(APPLAUSE)

(ALL CHEERING)

(QUACKS, SCREECHING)

(ROARING)

BOTH: Uh-oh.

-What the... -(FISH SCREAMING)

(SCREECHING)

(ROARING)

(SCREAMING)

Oh no! I think I might've gone too far!

(BOOMING FOOTSTEPS)

(SCREECHING)

Brandon! (GROWLS)

(SCREECHING)

(CLANGS)

Run, Brandon. (GRUNTS)

-Hyah! -(SCREECHING CONTINUES)

Hah! Hyah!

(QUACKING)

(NERVOUS CHUCKLE)

Thank you, Miss Bea.

(CLAPS)

MR. MUSSELS: I wanna thank y'all for coming out tonight.

This year's Little Fish Sunshine beauty pageant winner is...

-(DRUMROLL) -Check it out...

contestant number 18,

-Miss Kayla Brooks. -(CYMBAL CRASHES)

(COOING)

You have gotta be kidding me.

(FUSSES)

(SIGHS)

I guess meeting someone famous

isn't really a good reason to compromise who you are.

Blah.

Uh, hey, Bea.

Look, I'm sorry about all this.

You know, the real reason I quit doing pageants was

'cause I felt like I was never good enough.

And it made me go all crazy.

(SIGHS) I guess I should've... mentioned that.

It's okay.

I have a message for you.

What's it say?

"Dear Contestant 27,

"Thank you for saving my life.

"Sincerely...

Brandon Bubbler."

(GASPS, GIGGLES)

(SQUEAKS)

(MOUSE SNORES, YAWNS)

Ooh, Mouse, you missed the latest adventure in the fish tanks.

Milo did this crazy thing, but Bea took control

and was like "Don't worry, I'll fix it."

Oscar got nervous when Clamantha tried to kiss him,

and Finberley got hurt but Shellsea didn't care.

Koi's like "Wah," and Jumbo and Albert ran away from Jocktopus

and Randy didn't help 'cause he's a jerk.

And in the end Milo took responsibility and solved the problem himself

because he realized what really matters is friendship! (RATTLES)

Yeah, I've seen that one.

(DOG GROWLS)
