He does drama, comedy, and he looks great in a bathing suit.

is shooting a commercial.

They're gonna need background shoppers,

Don't even think about auditioning, backstabber.

- What are you talking about?

- That time I was supposed to be in that soup commercial

and you stole my part. - I was eight.

And the only reason why I got the part

was 'cause you couldn't remember your one line.

How hard is it to say, "Yum, soup"?

- Mm, that's a question I ask myself every day.

But if I get this Alfie's commercial,

we can finally put to rest our lifelong feud.

- What feud?

I forgot about the commercial until you just mentioned it.

You're overthinking this. - I never overthink.

Now, which one of these 11 characters do you think

I should audition with?

This is guy who's about to buy milk,

but realizes it's past the expiration date.

[gasps] No!

No! 1995! No!

is standing in the background, not talking.

Did you tell him he did his own stunts?

- They probably didn't even watch it.

They only want someone

who already has a social media following.

- Then let's get him a following.

If a talented pig like Arthur can't get famous,

then I don't even know why the Internet was invented.

- But the audition's Friday.

He'd need, like, 100,000 followers to even be considered.

- Friday? That's three days from now.

- Yeah, that's plenty of time for Arthur to blow up online

and get that commercial.

I promise, I can do it.

I have a plan.

- Really? Thanks, guys!

I'm gonna go tell Arthur the good news...

and give him some happy pancake.

- So what's your plan?

- To ask you how to make someone Internet famous.

- Me?

- You're the one with tons of followers.

So, what's our plan? - Stuart, it took me two years

to build up followers for Ivy Cares.

Why did you promise you can do it in three days?

Leaf is gonna be so disappointed.

- Well, he won't be disappointed

if we make Arthur famous in three days.

- But we can't make Arthur famous in three days,

so Leaf will be disappointed.

- Look, we can go back and forth on who promised Leaf what,

but I think it would be more productive if you'd just agree

to help me to make the pig famous in three days.
