Calling All Aliens

**Calling All Aliens** is the fifth episode of the Punch Time Exploders Shorts.

## Plot

Bernadette realizes that tracking down the Skylander Crystals will take some genius handiwork, but what she doesn't know is, she contacts this genius at the same time aliens contact him, and he tries to contact them both.

## Script

### Part 1

Bernadette: Okay, guys. If we're going to look for the other Elemental Skylander Crystals, we're gonna need the help of someone technologically inclined. And fortunately, the Kids Next Door have provided me with just the genius.

(Inside a basement lab...)

Jimmy: (He's in his lab in his underwear next to Goddard, his robot dog, and throws a dart at his toy) Goddard, transport goo dart. Hand, Goddard. (Goddard barks and uses a device on his head to transport the dart to Jimmy's hand) It works! (Throws the dart away) With this matter transporter, I'll never have to worry about missing the school bus again. You can just beam me right into my desk.

VOX: You have two incoming messages.

Jimmy: (Goes up to his screen) Whoa. It's a message from deep space!

VOX: Deciphering messages.

Jimmy: Yes! This is what I've been waiting for all my life; contact with an advanced alien race! Well, that and reaching out to the other United Universes.

VOX: First message deciphered. Deciphering second message.

Jimmy: They're never gonna believe this at school, Goddard! Oh, yeah! Uh-huh! (At the words "School Goddard", Goddard teleports Jimmy away)

(In Jimmy's classroom)

Jimmy: And a message is a-comin' from dark space! Uh-huh, yeah! Hoo, ha-- (realizes he's in class) AHH! (Miss Fowl crows in shock and Jimmy covers himself with the globe)

Miss Fowl: Mr. Neutron, show-and-tell is tomorrow. (Jimmy runs home)

### Part 2

(That night...)

Jimmy: (Now fully dressed, he and his friend Carl are on a futuristic platform floating up to a power line) And when I got home, I found out a hero team called the Punch Time Exploders needed my help, but unfortunately the other message had been erased, so I didn't get to hear it.

Carl: Uh, we're pretty high up here, Jimmy. I-I think I kinda... sorta preferred... low. (Uses his inhaler)

Jimmy: There. I patched into Retroville's power grid. We are going to use all the lights in Retroville to spell out a greeting to our United Universal brothers. Watch this, Carl. (Presses a button on a remote-like device and the lights spell out "Greetings from Earth") Nuh-uh. (The lights then spell out "We Love 👽") Uh, let's try something else; something that'll appeal to both aliens and these Punch Time Exploders. Hmm... I got it! (The lights spell out "Free Parking")

Carl: Wow! Do you think they can really see it from space?

Jimmy: No problem, Carl. I'll just turn up the juice and-- (Turns it off too much, causing a power outage) Oops. (The powerline sparks, sending them falling off the platform and down Jimmy's chimney)

Hugh: (Sees Jimmy fall out of the chimney) Santa Claus, you're... early, and you're filthy. (Carl falls in afterward) Big elf.

### Part 3

(The next morning...)

Jimmy: (He's seen working on a telescope-like device) I'll contact those aliens yet. (His other friend Sheen runs up to him)

Sheen: Jimmy! Jimmy! I just got the Ultra Lord Talking Wristwatch! It has over 27 different Ultra Lord sayings! Look! (Presses the button on his watch)

Watch: Saying Number 1.

Sheen: Isn't that cool?!

Jimmy: That's cool, Sheen.

Sheen: Hey, is that a telescope?

Jimmy: It's my Yell-o-scope. It amplifies your voice 34 million times so you can send messages across the galaxy. Once this is properly tested, I'll build one that can transmit messages throughout the United Universes, and there's no time like the present. Watch. (Points the yell-o-scope to the sky and yells into it) Greetings from Earth! (There is no response) Hmm. Better try the other one. (Yells into it again) Welcome, Punch Time Exploders! (Still no response)

Sheen: Hey, maybe it's 34 million times louder to only dogs.

Jimmy: I wonder what's wrong? (Opens a compartment in the speaker) This should work. The hyper-synchro filament is in alignment with the cauterized cooling coil...

Sheen: Hmm... maybe it's 'cause the on-switch isn't on. (Jimmy facepalms and turns it on as Sheen presses the watch button again)

Watch: ***SAYING NUMBER TWO.*** (It turned out the Yell-o-scope was pointed at a house, causing a wall to fall, but they survive by a window)

Sheen: Hey, Jimmy, it worked! I don't know about outer space, but we sure made contact with Mr. and Mrs. Applebee. (Mrs. Applebee faints)

Jimmy: Hmm... I better shelf the United Universal version.

### Part 4

(Back at the Prophet's palace)

Bernadette: Okay, guys, I'm going out. This Jimmy Neutron kid can't be that hard to find. I'll call for reinforcements when I can. Don't wait up! (Blasts off in her BWF-7000)

(In Jimmy's front yard)

(Two girls walk by as Jimmy is seen working on a robot)

Blonde Girl: Look, Libby, Jimmy's making a nerd-mobile.

Libby: Hold up, Cindy. That is clearly a nerd-ROCKET-mobile. (The two of them chuckle)

Jimmy: Good morning, Libby. Oh, Miss Vortex, I see they let you out of your cage early today.

Cindy: What are you doing, anyway, Jerkules?

Jimmy: Well, this is probably a little over your boy-band-swooning heads, but I'm testing a rocket so we can fly high enough to launch a communication satellite.

Libby: We?

Cindy: Yeah, what incredible imbecile would ride with you in that junk heap? (Carl arrives)

Carl: Is it ready yet, Jimmy? (Cindy and Libby laugh hysterically, and Carl innocently laughs along, much to Jimmy's chagrin)

Jimmy: Ready, Carl?

Carl: Uh...

Jimmy: Blast off! (The rocket's launching platform falls, and the rocket flies out of control as it circles the neighborhood until landing in a hedge)

Carl: (disoriented) Is this Mars? (Cindy and Libby laugh again)

Libby: See ya, space-boy! (She and Cindy leave)

### Part 5

Carl: Uh... are you sure about this, Jimmy?

Jimmy: Absolutely, Carl. (it's revealed that the rocket is vertically perched on the chimney on the roof) The chimney provides a perfectly stable launching platform.

Carl: Okay. (beat) Uh, Jimmy, why do I have this toaster again? (Holds up a toaster with various gadgets on it)

Jimmy: I told you, it's not a toaster, Carl. It's a communication satellite.

Carl: Oh, okay. Yeah... but why do you wanna communicate with toast?

Jimmy: Oh, never mind, Carl. Just fasten your seatbelt.

Carl: Uh, I don't know about this, Jimmy. B-besides, you promised to help me with math today.

Jimmy: O-okay, fair enough, Carl. What's twenty-five minus twenty?

Carl: Five.

Jimmy: Sixteen minus twelve?

Carl: Uh, four.

Jimmy: Good. Three times one?

Carl: Three.

Jimmy: Six divided by three?

Carl: Two.

Jimmy: Two minus one?

Carl: One.

Jimmy: BLAST OFF! (The rocket launches)
