[♪♪♪]

Ah, my first day off since Roosevelt was president.

No distractions, no explosions, no violence,

no reminders of my work.

SKIPPY: Aunt Slappy, Aunt Slappy, Aunt Slappy, Aunt Slappy!

You'll never believe it,

not in a million- kabillion-kazillion years!

Brad Pitt asked for my phone number?

Spew, no!

Whoa!

It's the bestest, most amazingest thing

that's ever happened anywhere near here.

And I'm not kidding.

[THUD]

If this has anything to do with pogs, I'll shoot myself.

They're filming the most violent,

action-packed movie ever filmed in this very neighborhood.

Oh, happy day.

Every action-adventure star you could think of is in it.

Arnold, Bruce, Keanu, Snipes.

It's mega, Aunt Slappy. Mega!

Is it mega?

It's mega.

Good. Buh-bye.

But don't you wanna go watch

some state-of-the-art mega action?

Nah, I'm on vacation, and I need a sitz bath.

Huh?

Never mind.

Come on, it'll be fun.

[♪♪♪]

[GULPS]

Agh!

Uh-oh.

I feel a bubble coming on.

SLAPPY: Go away.

SKIPPY: They're gonna blow up that set, Aunt Slappy.

It's moviemaking magic.

Here's my chance to get a cheese sandwich.

Buh-bye.

Look, it's Bruce.

Springsteen?

Where the heck's my lip gloss?

Not that Bruce.

Oh.

How's my hair look?

Great, babe.

What hair?

Shhh!

Rogaine, anyone?

Stop it.

All right, Mr. President of the Hair Club for Men.

Jeesh.

I'm not just the president,

I'm also a member.

And action!

Ki, yi, yippie, I, O, ki, A!

Ooh, what dialogue.

Time for that sitz bath.

Wait, the special effects are gonna blow.

Don't you get it?!

I'm on vacation.

I don't wanna hear from explosions!

[EXPLOSION]

[BRUCE YELLING]

That was beautiful.

How's my hair look?

Who cares?

So I figure at this point

the only way to get away from any reminder of my work

is to get out of town.

Thanks for the chocolate.

Mama always said that life was like a box of chocolates.

You never know what you're gonna get.

Is this the bus to the airport? I got a flight to catch.

[TIRES SQUEALING]

I ain't in that big a hurry.

There's a bomb on this bus!

If we go under 50 miles per hour,

it will explode.

[♪♪♪]

Like, I'm looking for a bomb?

Check out your performance in Dracula.

We must drive fast.

Very fast. Over-50 fast.

[♪♪♪]

You're cute. Can I have your number?

Hey, Nancy, Sluggo, you wanna look where you're driving?

Ah! Agh!

Cut! Print!

That was so,

so, you know, pretty.

[SOBS]

Aunt Slappy, you didn't tell me you were in this movie. Mega!

SLAPPY: Well, if it isn't Huey, Dewey and Louie.

I haven't seen you guys since Daisy Duck's bat mitzvah.

[GROANS]

Guess Aunt Slappy needed a little lie-down.

SLAPPY: I want a plane ticket to Ohio.

I want a vacation where nothing happens.

Huh?

I don't get it.

No one expects you to.

Fifty-four, 55, 56-- Ah! Fifty-seven.

MAN: No way! I'm Passenger 57.

I hate my life.

Okay, let's get this boat off the ground.

Impressive takeoff.

Care for some creamed sardines?

There's something on the wing.

There is something out there.

Calm down, staccato boy. Let me look.

I'll go talk to the pilot. Here's a sponge.

Beam me up, Scotty.

[♪♪♪]

I feel good about deregulation, don't you?

What say we land this thing?

I'm just an actor.

I don't know nothing about landing planes, Miss Slappy.

My head hurts.

ARNOLD: That's a keeper. Let's break for lunch.

It's not Ohio, but it'll do.

MAN: Food!

Squirrel rump roast!

DIRECTOR: Cut!

[DIRECTOR SOBBING]

Wow! Another mega scene.

That was great.

Tony the Tiger, is that you?

Octogenarians need lots of lie-downs.

[FOGHORN BLOWING]

SLAPPY: This boat ain't named the Titanic, is it?

CAPTAIN: No.

Poseidon? No.

And your name isn't Hook, Kirk,

Courageous, Bligh, or Stuebing?

No.

♪ I'm going on vacation I'm going on vacation ♪

If you ask me, she's already left.

[♪♪♪]

Ah!

Finally, a break from violence.

MAN: I have you now, Mr. Bond.

[♪♪♪]

That's a wrap. Nice work, Slappy.

Wow, Aunt Slappy, you were-- You were--

Mega?

[GIGGLES]

Know what?

I think Aunt Slappy needs a vacation.

[MOANS]

ANNOUNCER: It's time for another Good Idea, Bad Idea.

Good idea.

Climbing a mountain.

Bad idea.

Climbing a mountain lion.

[ROARS]

[SPITS]

The end.

[♪♪♪]

[KEYBOARD CLICKING]

In the newsreel opening

it says the Warners were created in 1930.

But to have a 65th anniversary show in 1994 means

they were created in 1929.

And in "Yakko's World,"

Tibet is not technically a country.

[GULPS]

In "Cookies for Einstein," E equals MC squared

is not the relativity formula.

It is the mass energy conversion formula.

And Slappy's driving a Dodge Viper,

but races the Road Runner,

which was the name of a Dodge Charger R/T variant in the '60s.

And the numbers in that "Yakko's Universe Song"

are so wrong, it's hardly enjoyable.

And in the theme song

it's pay-or-play contracts, not pay-for-play.

Some people think it's "for," but it's "or."

The closed captioning was wrong when it said "for."

And in the "Pinky and the Brain" title,

the Tokyo movie Shinjo version,

which is on once, it has BH 90201,

which is supposed to be BH, Beverly Hills, 90210.

How could they get that wrong?

[CLICKS]

Is this you?

Are you happily engrossed

in inconsequential cartoon trivia to the point

that your socks can probably stand up by themselves?

Well, if you are, there's hope. There's help.

There's the Please, Please, Please, Get A Life Foundation.

Since its inception

the Please, Please, Please, Get A Life Foundation

has gently and calmly brought people back to earth.

Okay, in "Gift of Gold," there's this guy with a T-shirt

that says 839 on it

and that's the cartoonists' union, Local 839, okay?

But what's amazing is the episode number is 406-839.

Our staff of trained professionals will soothe you

with their comforting therapy.

In "Pavlov's Mice,"

Pavlov wasn't really interested in conditioned response.

He just wanted some saliva to study.

YAKKO: Yes, even the toughest cases

are solved in a nurturing, serene manner.

In "Girlfeathers," the sign that says "Niagara Falls"

is misspelled.

And "Chairman Of The Bored"

has this drawing that looks like Dustin Hoffman

and Meryl Streep, who were both in Kramer vs. Kramer.

And they're sitting with the guy from Seinfeld who plays Kramer.

And in "Woodstock Slappy,"

you can see Scratchansniff

for four frames on the magic bus.

And Woodstock was '69,

but they mention Hair, which opened in 1970.

In "Opportunity Knox," Brain is Mr. Perkins,

which is the most common name in Elizabethtown, Kentucky,

10 minutes from Fort Knox.

And in "Christmas Plotz," Slappy wants four--

No! Not Him!

[GIGGLES]

Gosh and gollyuckums.

It's my yummy, yum, fun, fun,

yummy, fun, yum, yum, friend-a-loo.

Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo.

Quick. It's not too late.

Call us before you rewind to see

what was in the room in the opening shot.

There is hope. There is help.

There is the:

ALL: Please, Please, Please, Get A Life Foundation.

Thanks, Please, Please, Please, Get A Life Foundation.

I couldn't have done it without you.

You guys are the gee-reatest.

Call now. The life you get may be your own.

Did you notice that the third "please"

was misspelled with two Es?

I think that was intentional.

Oh!

The iris-out-on-the-nose thing's been done.

[♪♪♪]

I'm Yakko.

I'm Wakko.

And I'm rabid.
