Original subtitles

Sir, your noodles

are here.

Finally.

Any word on locating Pops?

We're still scouring

the Bleisdorf Quadrant, sir.

Any word on locating

the special sauce?

Scouring the bag, sir.

Uh, there doesn't seem

to be any, sir.

What? Aah.

Noodle-Verse is the worst.

There were

no packets of special sauce

in my bag.

Never ordering from you again.

Huh? Where are

the negative stars?

Noodle-Verse

deserves negative stars.

[GRUNTS]

Yes. Yello Customer Service?

I'm trying to leave

a negative-star review and--

What do you mean

the lowest review is zero stars?

They deserve

negative five stars.

Your archaic rating system

does not reflect

my level of hate.

[GASPS] Oh, dear.

He has grown more powerful

than a five-star rating system

can contain.

All right, Pops, go.

Hyah.

Hyah. Hyah. Hyah.

Hyah.

[GROANS]

Wait. Did you even hit it?

I don't want to break it.

This board could one day

grow up to be

a beautiful dinette centrepiece.

Pops, we're supposed to be

training you.

Cone on, Pops.

Fly like a butterfly,

sting like a...

Hey, wait, Pops.

Sting like a bee, Pops.

A bee.

This isn't working.

I'm hungry.

[LAUGHING]

[SIGHS]

Our "B"s

are about to be stung.

And by that,

I mean our butts.

Why?

Anti-Pops

forever grows in power.

We must hasten our training.

How are we gonna do that?

Even with everyone helping,

it's still going slow.

Have you heard of

the ancient technique

of training montage?

Montage?

No. What is it?

Masters of it

could condense time and space

to train faster.

They could skip right over

the parts

where they took a break

to pee.

Wait. That sounds familiar.

Oh, yeah.

It's a film technique

in which a collection of shots,

cut with wipes and dissolves

in quick succession,

is used to condense

space and time.

I went to art school.

Yes, exactly.

By doing this, they were able to

do weeks of training

in mere days

to reach the next level.

Is Pops gonna level up

like in a video game?

Something like that.

Cool.

Cool.

Ah, music.

With the right track,

these lessons will fly by.

This is my favourite song.

[♪♪♪]

Hyah.

Hyah.

[GROANS]

Whoa.

Whoa.

BOTH: He levelled up.

Again.

[♪♪♪]

This montage technique

is nuts, dude.

Yeah, man,

it's crazy.

First they're, like, over here,

and then they're all wipe.

Boom.

Hey, we're over here.

Yeah. I bet Pops

will be ready in no time.

I even like the song.

It's catchy.

Hwah. Hyah.

Hwah. Heh heh.

[KARATE YELLS]

[BOTH LAUGH]

[♪♪♪]

Ahh. It's so early.

[BOTH GROAN]

Aah.

Aah.

[BOTH GASP]

No.

Wait. Stop.

Wait.

No. No.

[VIDEO GAME PLAYS]

Hey.

MAN: You lose.

Aw, man.

Uhh. How long is this

gonna take?

Dude, I can't handle

that song anymore.

He played it, like, 120 times.

What are we gonna do?

I have an idea.

Let's change the tune-age.

[PANTING] I'm ready for

today's training montage, Earl.

Ah, you've caught

the montage bug.

If we keep this steady pace,

we should be ready in two weeks.

[♪♪♪]

What?

It's so... strong.

Where is my music?

I don't know.

Get something

a little different, I guess.

Don't you know

what you've done?

♪ And endlessly

we're roaming free tonight ♪

Huh?

♪ And on the wings of a dream ♪

♪ So far beyond reality ♪

♪ All alone in desperation ♪

What's the problem?

It just looks like

he's training faster.

Don't you see?

Montages are more powerful

the faster the song is.

♪ My own mind ♪

ALL: Ach. Huh?

All right, Pops,

you chopped the board.

That's enough montage for now.

No. Don't get near him.

Huh?

Huh?

Uhh.

Uhh.

Huh?

Pops, you gotta stop.

Huh?

Uhh.

Pops.

How long is this song?

It's five and a half minutes.

You have to turn off

the boom box

from within the montage.

We can't do it,

or we'll get sucked in, too.

Aah.

Aah.

After him.

Huh?

Huh?

How'd I get

this fishing pole?

Montage logic. Just use it.

Huuh.

Dang it.

The wipe cut my line.

Pops, the bed is made.

You can stop.

All right,

our next step is--

What? No.

Oh, great. Now we're stuck in

the montage, too.

Way to mess everything up

with your young,

hip, fast music.

This is dangerous.

You can't just

throw fast music around.

Whoa,

it didn't explode.

Uhh.

Uhh.

Go get the boom box.

[ALL SCREAM]

Eh?

ALL: What?

He's montaging

out of control.

If we don't stop him,

he'll destroy everything.

[SCREAMS]

[RUMBLING]

[GASPS] What's that sound?

It's a thematically appropriate

transition.

That coin was huge.

Are we breathing in space?

This isn't space.

It is the void.

This is where you end up

when you reach peak montage.

Colour cards, morphing,

split screens.

Anything can happen here.

Where's Pops?

He's perfecting

every exercise.

Pops, slow down.

Pops, just--

What are we supposed to do?

Every training montage has

a place that appears repeatedly

to show someone's progress.

If we find the nexus point,

we can turn off that boom box.

Huh? Aah.

I'm a ghost.

Aah. Aah.

Bro, is this what it's like

for you all the time?

Pretty much.

I'm, uh... I'm getting

a little sick here.

You are not ghosts.

You are overlays.

Now figure out

Pops' nexus point.

♪ With their blood

On our hands ♪

♪ We fought so hard,

Now can we-- ♪

The wood chopping.

He always levels up

when he chops wood.

Rigby, get to where

the boom box will be

when we come out

of the void.

Throw me, Skips.

Yaah.

♪ So far away,

We wait for-- ♪

Uh, a little faster, Rigby.

♪ For the light source

So wasted and gone ♪

♪ We feel the pain

Of a lifetime ♪

♪ Lost in a thousand days ♪

Oh, no, all he has left to do

is write the perfect signature.

♪ Carry on ♪

Is the boom box about here?

Dude, it's to the left.

To the left.

[OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

Here?

[CHATTER CONTINUES]

Here?

That's it.

[GASPS]

The perfect signature.

ALL: Aah.

Rigby, the boom box.

[ALL PANTING]

[MUSIC STOPS]

Huh?

Huh?

Uhh.

Uhh. Pops?

Rain.

[THUNDER RUMBLES]

[GIGGLES]

He is ready.

Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha.

Good show.
