[explosion]

-Give it up.

There's nowhere else to run, Dash Dawson!

-Ungh!

-Nice try, ladies!

Huh!

[panting]

See you in your dreams!

Huh!

[girls gasp]

-Aah!

-Uh!

Ungh!

Aah!

[clink]

[splash]

-[gasp]

-Oops.

Looks like Dash went splash.

-Uh, Jerry, better send the WOOHP water rescue team.

We kind of dropped the Dreamy-Looking

Bandit in the bay.

[school bell rings]

[girls shrieking]

-Just in time.

Hm?

-For a pop quiz?

I didn't even get a chance to prepare.

-Uh, no doubt, my pores are clogging and my hair is gray!

What's with Jer WOOHPing us to school right

after a mission, hello?

[school bell rings]

[cheers]

-From nottie to hottie in 45 minutes.

The way I look, I could have been

nabbed by the nerd patrol.

-People, vote for Arnold.

-Huh?

-Hey, I'm running for class president.

-Oh, gee, Arnold.

That's great.

Uh.

-What are you running for?

King of the nerds?

-[gulp]

Class president.

Eh, heheh, you'll vote for me, won't you, Mandy?

-Ugh!

Please, I'd sooner vote for the school mascot!

-Don't be a laughing stock.

Vote for the peacock.

-[chortles]

No-oh!

[school bell rings]

-Forget about Mandy, Arnold.

We'll vote for you.

[clinks]

-Huh?

Hey, did somebody--

[tinkles]

-[giggles]

Ah!

Oop!

Uh!

Wow!

This is a great workout.

Uh.

Feel the burn.

-Huh!

-Huh!

[doors close]

-Ha?

Arnold?

[tinkles]

[students gasp]

[whistling]

-Uh!

-Huh!

-Huh?

Gah!

Ooh!

Gah!

Ugh!

Gah!

Ugh!

Ooh!

Aagh!

Ah, rah!

-Ooh, close one.

-[pants]

[grunts]

Rah!

[screech]

[fizz]

-[chortles]

Is that the best you got?

-Huh?

-Haaii!

Eeyah!

-Aargh!

Ugh!

[exhales sharply]

Whoo.

[sighs]

[door opens and closes]

[girls gasp]

-Do you, guys, notice anything different about Arnold?

-You mean, besides the fact that for first time ever, he's

actually noticeable?

-Aah, maybe he'll get my vote after all.

[chuckles]

-Come on, girls.

[girls shriek]

-Whoa!

-Ew!

-Ugh!

-Yuck!

-Bad news, spies.

We had no more luck than you snagging the

Dreamy-Looking Bandit.

-You didn't find him under the bridge?

-Neither hide nor hair.

-Aah, and what fabulous hair it is.

-Hmm.

-Well, I guess, we'll just have to keep on looking.

-Dawson's capture is more crucial than ever.

WOOHP found his fingerprints at the Tower of London

several weeks ago.

Seems he made off with one of the crown jewels, the

notorious Cat's Eye emerald.

-The Cat's Eye?

I heard about that.

The Cat's Eye is the only crown

jewel not put on display.

It was given to Queen Elizabeth in 1578.

They say it has special powers.

-But there's another reason to find Dawson.

He might be out for revenge.

-[gasps]

Against us?

Why?

Just because we chased him around the world and trapped

him on the bridge and ripped his flying cape and sent him

into the freezing bay and--

-Precisely.

So you're going to need a nice new set of

gadgets to help you.

GLADIS: Welcome, ladies.

-Which ones do we get this time?

-Whichever you feel might best defend you from

the vengeful Dawson.

-I want the Nuclear Meltdown Curling Iron.

GLADIS: I don't think that's such a good idea.

-OK.

-This is so cool.

I've always wanted to try the--

GLADIS: The Laser Nail File?

-Sure, why not?

-GLADIS, I told them they could choose.

GLADIS: I know what's best for my girls.

-Well, I'm choosing my gadget.

And that's that.

It's a pen?

GLADIS: Perfect choice, Clover.

It's the brand-new Satellite Dish Pen.

-Wow!

I can see myself from a zillion different angles.

This will be perfect for my next makeover!

-Hmm.

[girls shriek]

-[chuckles]

-Eh-heh, no kidding.

She's, like, falling out of these sprayed-on hip-huggers.

I'm all, like, hello?

They're hip-huggers, not hippo huggers.

[chortles]

[shrieks]

Hey!

What are you doing?

I--I'm in the middle of a--

[zapping]

-I can't believe Jerry totally lost Dawson.

-I know!

He could be anywhere.

I mean, he could even be watching us right now.

[giggles]

-[nervous laughter]

MANDY (OFFSCREEN): Help!

Help!

-It's him!

He is here.

-You, guys, run for it!

I'll handle Dawson!

-That's not Dawson.

Someone's trapped in the janitor's closet.

Uh, hmm.

[girls shriek]

-Mandy?

What happened?

-[squeaks]

I'm a nerd!

I got to get out of here before (LISPING) someone sees

me like this.

-Mandy, wait!

-Oh, great.

Now, headgear is in?

Note to self, call orthodontist.

-I don't think that was Mandy's

latest fashion statement.

It sounded like she was being attacked!

-But there's no one here.

-Hey, she dropped her scrunchy.

Oh, you're right.

She must have been forced to wear this.

This color is so last season!

SAM (OFFSCREEN): Maybe Mandy's just begging for attention

again, as usual.

-Uh!

She always was a drama queen.

-It looked like she just got some really bad fashion

advice, like from someone really nerdy.

-Uh.

[chuckles]

-Hm.

SPF 40, SPF 80, SPF 500.

Perfect!

[footsteps approaching]

-Huh!

Ugh!

Rude much!

Ever heard of knocking?

-Hi, Clover.

-Huh?

Arnold, uh, you've changed.

[zap]

CLOVER (OFFSCREEN): Arnold!

[shrieks]

-Huh!

It's Clover!

-[sighs]

Another tan-line emergency.

-Clover?

Huh!

-Huh!

Ooh!

Clover, no!

-Oh.

-Aah.

-I'll never date again!

-What happened?

-It was Arnold!

He had this green ring and he--

[sobs]

he nerdified me!

[bawls]

-Green ring.

Arnold has the Cat's Eye emerald!

-Arnold?

But how?

[tires screeching]

-Huh!

-There he goes!

[rushing footsteps]

-Ungh!

-Ngh!

-Uh!

Uh!

Oh!

I even jump like a nerd.

-Who ever thought they would be chasing me?

[laughing]

[crossing alarm]

[train horn blows]

[girls shriek]

-Oh, no!

[electronic beep]

[girls shriek]

[clangs]

-[snickers]

[tires screech]

-Hey!

He's got cool gadgets.

He's not even a spy!

[tires screech]

-[laughs]

[blasts]

[girls shriek]

[blasts]

-Wow!

I knew Arnold was smart, but not sneaky smart!

[tires screech]

[crash]

-Eh.

[splash]

-An oil slick?

Boring!

[tires screech]

-Uh!

-(NERVOUSLY) Uh, Alex?

That boring oil slick isn't so boring anymore.

-Hey!

What's going on?

SAM (OFFSCREEN): It's not oil.

It's millions of rubber-eating nanobots!

[girls shriek]

[crash]

-Oh!

-That is one clever techno-geek.

-Hm, more like techno-hunk!

Well, he's kind of cute.

-He's kind of cute, while you and Mandy are--

well, you know.

Hey, give me some hair.

-Ow!

Nerds have feelings, too, you know.

SAM (OFFSCREEN): We just need a DNA analysis.

Whoa.

The Cat's Eye altered your DNA.

-[gasps]

You mean, I'm like this for life?

-Clover, give me Mandy's scrunchy.

Perfect.

Mandy left a hair on it.

[girls gasp]

-The same thing happened to Mandy.

-Arnold got to her, too!

-But why is he doing this?

-Maybe Jerry can help.

-Hm?

[clicks]

-Jerry, we found the Cat's Eye emerald.

And someone is using it to nerdify cool people.

-Nerdify?

-Make people more, uh, you know, like you.

-I beg your pardon?

[alarm blares]

-Uh, wait.

There seems to be a major disturbance right nearby.

[car engine revs]

-It's Arnold!

-Let's go!

[people screaming]

-Either Arnold's in there, or there's a major cartoon

convention going on.

-Hm.

[electronic beeps]

ALEX (OFFSCREEN): His car's in the underground parking lot.

-But which floor could he be on?

-Uh.

[whirring motor]

[beeps]

CLOVER (OFFSCREEN): He's in the penthouse.

-Great work, Clover.

-We, nerds, are good for something, you know?

[chortles]

[dings]

-Arnold lives here?

-Wow!

Talk about love.

-Years ago, you picked on me.

And now, you're going to pay.

-What's going on, man?

[zap]

-Ha?

Uh-huh, ooh, ooh, wa-- wait.

Ho.

Oh, ho, oh [groans].

-Ho-ho.

Rrh!

[laughs]

BODYBUILDER (OFFSCREEN): My beautiful muscles.

Uh, ah, oh, eh, eh, oh, no!

Er.

-And that's why he's changing.

The ring sucks cool DNA from people who were mean to him

and sends it to Arnold.

-But why did he zap me?

I mean, I've never been mean to him.

-(ALEX AND SAM) Hmm.

-OK, so I turned him down on a few, uh, 100 dates.

But I was being nice by not letting him get his hopes up.

I want my cool DNA back!

-(NERVOUSLY) Aah.

-Eh, rrh, eh, rrh, rrh, rrh.

[girls gasp]

-Ladies, what a pleasant surprise!

-It's over, Arnold!

Give us the ring!

-I don't think so.

It's too cool being cool.

-Yes, but at what cost?

-No one takes my coolness and lives to talk about it!

-I do.

-Get him, spies!

-Grr.

[girls shriek]

-[panting]

-Ooh, that was cool!

I mean, you can't get away that easily!

-Uh!

-Huh!

-Eee--

yah!

Yah!

-Ow!

[thwack]

-Ah!

Is that the best you got?

-Huh!

Uh!

[thwacks]

-Hey, two against one.

Not fair.

-Hey!

-(GIRLS TOGETHER) Heeyah!

Uh!

Huh!

Huh!

Oh!

-[squawks]

Aah!

-Aah!

-Ow!

-[chortles]

-Ngh, ngh, ngh.

What are these things?

-Pocket protectors.

Every nerd's best friend.

-Arnold, you got to stop this!

-Stop it?

I'm just getting started.

-Huh!

-Ladies, I give you, Beverly Hills!

-You know, for an ex-nerd, that's a really nerdy model.

ARNOLD (OFFSCREEN): [laughing]

Soon, everyone will be geekier than me,

starting with you two.

-Uhh, why start with us?

We don't mind waiting.

-Arnold, don't you see?

Your coolness always wears off!

Even if you zap the whole world,

it's still only temporary.

[girls shriek]

[zap]

-No!

-Now, you're just like me!

[chuckles]

-(SAM AND ALEX, ANGRILY) Ooh.

-Hey, it's true.

Misery does love company.

-Eeeh, aaah!

-Huh?

Dash Dawson?

-Aaargh.

Ah.

Ugh.

Thanks for dropping me into the bay, girls.

Now, where is my ring?

-Grr.

-Does it look like we still have the ring?

-Oh.

[tinkle]

-That ring is mine.

Give it to me!

-Fat chance, geek.

Now, run along.

You'll be late for your accordion lesson.

-Rrrh.

Rrrh.

Rrh.

-Huh!

-Uh.

Eh.

-Huh, hai!

Yah!

-Uh.

[glass shatters]

-Ow!

-[laughs]

What a smash!

-Rrh.

Rrh.

-Uh!

If I can just get my nail file--

-Ah!

[crash]

-Oh.

-Uh!

That wasn't too close.

-Yes!

-Ah!

-That's enough!

Want to try four against one?

-Huh!

[crackling]

-Huh!

It's starting to wear off!

-Aagh!

-He's getting away!

-Come on!

[whirring blades]

-Oooh!

-Ah!

-Wha--

-Uh!

-I want my ring back!

[tinkle]

[zap]

-Huh!

-What's he doing?

[girls shriek]

-Hah?

-Wha--

-What?

-[laughs]

[crackling]

-[laughs diabolically]

-Uh!

-Time to zap the zapper!

[zap]

-No!

-Nerds might be weak, but we're smart!

-Hm?

-Ah!

-Let's go!

-The geek shall inherit the earth!

[laughs diabolically]

[zap]

-Come on, geeks!

Time to write him out of the will!

-Uh!

-Aah!

[girls squealing]

[whooshing]

[girls shrieking]

[clang]

-Ha?

-Rrrh!

[thud]

-Give me the ring.

-Never!

-Ugh!

-Uh!

Uh!

-What are you doing?

[girls shriek]

-Even my fingers have been nerdified.

-Grr.

[tinkle]

-Ugh!

Yes!

[laughs]

It's good to be back.

-No!

Aaah!

-Rrh.

-Ngh!

Uh!

-Uh!

ALEX (OFFSCREEN): Urrh!

Uh!

Uh!

Wow!

-Yes!

-Uh!

-[chuckles]

-Eh, hey, a little help!

[tinkles]

-No!

I will not be a nerd again, ever!

[thuds]

-Ow, hooh!

[clinks]

-Huh!

-Ooh!

[men panting]

-Uh!

-Eyah!

Yah!

[chuckles]

[tinkles]

-Yike!

-Uh!

[clang]

[hiss]

-Huh!

-Huh!

[zaps]

[girls shriek]

-Now, you all can nerdify yourselves.

See how much you like it!

[zap]

-Aaah!

[zap]

-Ugh.

-Hey, we're cool!

-Uh, I'm free again!

[girls shriek]

-Uh, oh.

-Well, spies, what did we learn this time?

-Better to be a live nerd than a squashed hunk.

-Uh!

You, guys, still think I'm a nerd?

-Um, wha--

-That you, um, ah, heh--

-No, of course not, Arnold.

You're just coolness-challenged.

-Be bold.

Vote for Arnold.

Vote Arnold.

-Uh, too bad about Arnold.

I mean, yesterday, he was almost datable.

-Hmm.

-Except for that crazy, mad scientist thing.

[chuckles]

Good thing we zapped his memory with the WOOHP

Memoliminator.

-Hi, guys.

You know, I had this weird dream where we were

fighting and all.

And I was big and strong and really cool.

-Oh, Arnold, you're not even president yet, and all the

power is go into your head.

SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR (ON SPEAKER): The results of the

Beverly Hills High student body elections are in.

Our new class president is the Beverly Hills High Peacock.

[cheers]

-Well, Arnold, look on the bright side.

With the Peacock as class president, we're going to need

a new mascot.

-And that's an elected position!

It's a whole new campaign.

"I don't ask a lot, I just want to be your mascot.

Just give me a shot, I'll be a great mascot." [laughs]

-You just had to encourage him.

-I know everyone totally nixed on the nerds.

And nobody wants to be one.

But I don't think they get their proper due.

I mean, without nerds, there'd be, like, no internet or MP3s

or even ATMs.

Huh!

In fact, there'd probably be no WOOHP!

Because, I mean, face it, without nerds,

there'd be no Jerry.

Uh, can you imagine?

No X-Powders, no super-cool flying jets, no gadgets!
