[SIGHS] Like I've been saying,

Pops is the Chosen One.

He must begin his training

immediately,

or Anti-Pops will destroy him

and the universe as we know it.

Why should we believe

any of this nonsense?

How do we even know

you're telling the truth?

Yeah, are you sure our Pops

is the Chosen One?

Maybe you, uh,

maybe you got the wrong guy.

I mean, look at him.

Ooh. Ha ha ha.

Huh? Oh, hello.

Pops is much stronger

than he looks.

You cannot begin to comprehend

the power he has within him.

What kind of fighting style

are you gonna teach Pops?

I think you should teach him

Krav Maga.

Or Death Kwon Do.

Pops has no need

for such insignificant--

Maybe he could use

the Fist of Justice.

Is Pops gonna get

cool powers and stuff?

Oh. Is he gonna shoot fire

out of his fingers?

That's not a thing.

What kind of award

does Pops get if he wins?

Yeah. We got to go--

Is he gonna have to

go somewhere?

[OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

[GROANING]

Enough! We need

to take this seriously.

Pops and Anti-Pops

are the reason for the universe

as we know it.

Everything that exists

is but a battleground

for their celestial forms.

Every 14 billion years,

they battle for dominance,

but they are two sides

of the same coin,

their powers

in perfect balance.

Every time,

the battle ends in stalemate,

and the universe resets anew.

But this time,

it can be different.

With my help,

Pops can break the cycle

and save this universe.

ALL: Whoa.

Titan? Universe?

I'm just Pops.

This doesn't seem right.

I don't know, Pops.

This sounds really serious.

I think

you have to do this.

But I don't want to

fight anyone.

You can and will.

Wait a minute. How do we know

this isn't all a load?

Yeah. We want proof.

Oh, you want proof?

Every time

the cycle starts over,

I get a tattoo on my...

What's happening right now?

body.

Frankly,

I'm running out of space.

I will unlock your power, Pops.

Training starts now.

Let us begin.

Socks?

Yes.

My socks, Pops.

We must fold them.

Okay.

Chase the rabbit

'round the tail,

then insert his fluffy--

No.

Aah.

Do as I do.

Now you try.

Fold, tuck,

then place in hamper.

[WHIMPERS]

[GROANS]

Again. Again.

What the heck?

This is lame.

Yeah. Where's the cool training

we were promised?

BOTH: Hmm.

Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm.

Now it is time

to make lemonade.

That sounds delightful.

No. Not delightful.

Grab a lemon.

Now squeeze it.

[GRUNTS]

Clear your mind.

The lemon is your foe.

He does not want to yield

his precious golden fluids,

so you must crush him.

[GRUNTING]

Good. Yes.

Now do that

a million times.

[GROANS]

Ah.

Pops, look at these bushes.

So unkempt.

Now simply do as I do.

[KARATE GRUNT]

You see? Easy.

But I don't want to hit

a tree.

Just do it.

[WHIMPERS]

Okay, okay.

This feels like a good place

to take a ten-minute break.

But before we resume,

I want you to ponder

this ancient haiku.

Darkness ahead strong.

My body frail like dried leaves.

Wise master so cool.

Okay.

This guy is full of it.

Yeah. I think Earl's

a big, fat fraud.

Oh, you got

something to say?

Yeah. When are you gonna

teach him something useful?

I am.

Whatever, dude.

While you're folding socks,

Anti-Pops is probably

off somewhere

learning how to shoot fire

out of his fingers.

You're really hung up on that

fire-out-of-the-fingers thing.

Because it's cool.

Remind me again--

how many intergalactic champions

have you trained, huh?

Is it zero? It's zero.

Right? Right?

Knock it off, dude.

Ha ha ha ha.

I bet you couldn't even

knock this lemonade

out of my hand.

Huh? Huh? Huh?

[♪♪♪]

[SCREAMS]

Haah.

Aah-- Huh?

Waah.

[GRUNTS]

Ha ha ha ha.

I could stand here all day.

You make a nice foot stool.

Aah. Ooh.

Huuh. Ha ha ha ha.

[STRAINED] Okay. You're legit.

Ha ha.

I don't want to let you down.

But I'll never

be as strong as Anti-Pops.

Stop talking to

that sad picture.

Break's over.

[LAUGHS]

Wax apply, wax remove.

Wax apply, wax remove.

[PANTING]

Now let's try it

with water in the buckets.

[GRUNTS]

Aah. Ooh.

[SQUEAKS]

Mmm. Time to freshen my cup.

Keep folding my undershirts.

It is a very important part

of your training.

RIGBY: Psst. Pops.

Huh?

How's training going?

Terrible.

Earl hasn't taught me anything.

EARL: Haven't taught you

anything?

[GASPS]

Busted.

Uh... I'm sorry,

but it's the truth.

Your training makes no sense.

I think you're simply too lazy

to do your own chores,

and I'm fed up with

being your personal chambermaid.

Also, I think you are

thoroughly unpleasant.

Oh, snap.

Dang.

Oh, no, he didn't.

I don't want

any part of this.

You can fight Anti-Pops,

for all I care.

Even if I wanted to, I cannot.

You are the Chosen One.

I don't want to be

the Chosen One.

If you do not become stronger

than Anti-Pops,

he will erase everything

you hold near and dear

from existence.

I refuse to train.

[GROANS]

Pops, I understand

your frustration.

It is good

that your will is strong.

I was going to wait

to show you this,

in fear that it would be

too overwhelming.

But this is my last resort

to convince you.

What is that?

A fragment

from a previous universe.

It will show the consequences

of your decisions.

[GASPS]

Where am I?

Oh, my.

It's... It's... me.

Yeah. Go.

Go, Titan Pops.

Remember our training.

[GASPS] Anti-Pops?

[GROWLS]

[GROWLS]

Stop.

Stop fighting.

[ROARS]

Rarr.

Bad show.

Aah.

No.

[STRAINING]

Uhh.

Aah.

[SQUEALS]

[ROARING]

Oh, dang it.

This part always hurts.

Aah.

Huh? Fellows.

The universe--it's vanishing.

No.

[WHINES]

Aah.

Bad show. Bad show.

Pops, are you okay?

What happened?

Are you okay?

I just want things

to go back to how they were.

[CRYING]

Pops, wait.

[DOOR CLOSES]

What did you show him?

Only the truth.

Not cool, Earl.

Sometimes the truth is not cool.

Uch. Whatever.

Let's go get Pops.

Get to my safe place.

Get to my safe place.

Get to my safe place.

Get to my safe place.

[CRYING]

ALL: Pops.

[OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

Pops.

Pops.

Pops.

Pops.

Hey, what's that?

Pops.

Dude, over there.

Hey, Pops. You okay?

What is this place?

I brought my things here

when my room was turned into

the control room.

I've been coming here

to get away from

all this destiny nonsense.

[SIGHS]

Everything's changing,

and it's up to me to stop it,

but what if I can't?

What if I can't do it?

It's okay

to be scared, Pops.

We're all scared.

Yeah.

I'm, like, super-scared.

I'm not gonna pretend

that we can relate,

but we know you can do this,

and we'll be with you

every step of the way.

That goes for all of us.

Yeah, we got your back, Pops.

Yes, Pops.

We are all here to help you.

You needn't be afraid.

Hey, Pops.

Yes?

Catch.

Aah.

[GRUNTING]

[ALL GASP]

Cool.

What the...

[LAUGHS] Very good.

Now your real training

can begin.

That's way cooler

than Krav Maga.

[♪♪♪]
