## Script

*The episode begins with Rodrick at a store and asks for the new video game that just came out.*

**Rodrick**: Hello, is it okay if I buy that- (points and sees the game is now sold out) uh…

**Egg**: we sold out, sir

**Rodrick**: b-but…

**Egg**: Sorry, now are you gonna buy something or just stand there cause there’s a standing fee.

**Rodrick**: what’s the fee?

**Egg**: 62 cents!

**Rodrick**: Screw that! I can’t afford that

**Egg**: (gets surprised) I- Wha- Hold up! (puts his hands on his face and then removes them to slap Rodrick) IF YOU CAN’T AFFORD 62 CENTS, WHY DID YOU COME HERE ASKING TO BUY A 60 DOLLAR GAME!!!

**Rodrick**: (rubs his cheek) well, it’s not so bad. I can borrow money, hmph! (Turns around and sees Rodger behind him) Hey, can I borrow 60 bucks.

**Rodger**: (stares at him for a few seconds and then holds up 3 dollars) I got 3 dollars. Take it or leave it.

*Rodrick takes the money, looks at it for a few seconds and stuffs it in Egg’s mouth and he falls backwards. Rodrick jumps over him and takes the game and makes a run for it. He pushes Maria, Belinda, Rodger, Milo, Channon, and Damon. Rodrick runs out the door.*

**Egg**: (gets up and coughs) JAIME, GET HIM

*Jaime comes out of the storage closet and squeezes his class cup of chocolate milk and grabs an axe*

**Jaime**: He's gonna die tonight (dashed out the door stepping on Maria’s leg on the way out)

**Maria**: (cries in pain) My Leg!

**Damon**: (helps Maria up) are you okay?

*Rodrick runs through the streets. He runs past Arion who is walking his dog, Sugar.*

**Arion**: hey! Slow down!

**Sugar**: (growls saying: I hope a car runs him over)

*Arion looks at his dog with a concerned look on his face since he understood what she said. Jaime runs past him and chases him down more. Rodrick is suddenly hit by a car and he falls backwards and drops the game. Jack comes out of the car and looks like he’s had too much to drink. He has ice cream on his mouth and runs off and screams excitedly.*

**Jack**: WOO FOOTBALL (throws a football at Arion and runs off)

**Arion**: Agh! (Falls over from the hit)

*Jaime tackles Rodrick and he gives up.*

**Rodrick**: Okay! Okay! I give up (hands the game back)

**Jaime**: if you do that again, it’s off to the jail cell! (Walks away)

*Rodrick gets up ashamed and Rodger follows him.*

**Rodger**: dude, I think you have an anger problem. I can help you if you want. (Head shakes and develops a menacing voice) And maybe we can murder- (head shakes again) …Uh ignore that.

*The scene cuts to Rodrick at Fredrick’s Restaurant with Oliv about to take his order. Rodrick yawns.*

**Oliv**: Hi, Sir, may I take your order?

**Rodrick**: Yeah, I want pizza. That’s it.

**Rodger**: (smelling himself) I gotta take a shower.

**Oliv**: Alright. (Talks to herself) everyone orders pizza here (laughs and walks off to the kitchen) Hi, Goldie!

**Alfred**: (playing with a spatula and talks baby language) aba pfft (splashes around the pizza sauce)

**Oliv**: Hey, don’t make too much of a mess! I gotta get someone else’s pizza ready.

**Alfred**: (tickles his own feet and laughs)

*Oliv begins cooking and Alfred licks the pizza sauce off the ground that Oliv spills. Rodrick is getting impatient and decides to walk to the kitchen*

**Rodrick**: I’m so freaking impatient! I’m going to see what’s taking so long! (Kicks down the door and walks to Oliv) what the heck is taking so long?!

**Oliv**: (scared) I- I- I h-haven’t started yet!

*Rodrick slams the pizza box in Oliv’s face and Alfred starts crying.*

**Rodrick**: Get to making my pizza boy!

**Oliv**: I’m a girl!

**Rodrick**: (points his finger at her) I don’t care about your gender pronouns, Oliv! (Slaps her) I’m hungry and starving.

**Alfred**: (gets angry and bites Rodrick’s foot)

*Rodrick falls back and kicks Alfred off. Rodger rushes in and grabs Rodrick and pulls him out of the room.*

**Rodger**: I’m so sorry!

**Alfred**: My Leg!

*Bart kicks them out of the restaurant and slams the door on them.*

**Bart**: and don’t come back! (Shuts the door)

*Rodger and Rodrick get up and get in Rodger’s car*

**Rodger**: this is ridiculous, Rodrick! I’m tired of you doing this! How about you go for a drive for a while!

**Rodrick**: fine! Driving actually gets my mind calm

*Rodrick drives around town with Rodger next to him. Rodrick starts to feel better a little.*

**Rodrick**: you know, this feels nice.

**Rodger**: y-yeah! It’s not that bad. Just keep your eyes on the road. And make sure you be careful.

**Rodrick**: hehe! Calm down. I may get angry but I'm always careful on certain things.

**Rodger**: [camera slowly zooms in his face, slightly sinister] Then why is there blood on the window, Rodrick?

**Rodrick**: (looks at the window, there’s a huge blood splat on the front of the car) AH, WHAT THE HELL!!!

**Rodger**: I told you to watch the road, Rodrick! Now look, you’ve gone and hit someone.

**Rodrick**: F-*[BEEPING]*-CKING!!! WHO DID WE HIT?!? WHY ARE YOU SO CALM ABOUT THIS?!?

**Rodger**: (laughs) because I run over kids all the time, duh! Anyway, let’s go back and see, shall we?

*Rodrick turns the car over and drives back to whoever he hit. Manny is shown laying on the ground and both his legs are broken*

**Manny**: MY LEGS!!!

**Rodger**: Wow, Rodrick, you really nailed that sucker!

**Rodrick**: (is still in the car not wanting to look at the body) Who is it?

**Rodger**: (chuckles) h-hey, Rodrick, get this.

**Rodrick**: what is it?

**Rodger**: your going to love this (laughing)

**Rodrick**: (beats the steering wheel and makes it honk several times and is mad again) FOR THE LOVE OF ANIMATORS HOLY, TELL ME ALREADY!!!!!!!

**Rodger**: You remember how you said you’re always careful at certain things?

**Rodrick**: Y-yeah (shakes in fear)

**Rodger**: Do you know who Manny is?

**Rodrick**: (scared) oh no..

**Rodger**: And guess who’s legs you just broken.

**Rodrick**: he’s one of the nicest boys in this Villiage (starts crying) if anyone knows I hurt him, everyone will hate me!

**Rodger**: well, don’t worry. it’s not Manny.

**Rodrick**: (confused) then who-

**Rodger**: (holds up Manny to Rodrick’s window) just kidding. It’s Manny The Kid! You got pranked!

*Manny looks at him with an angry look on his face and is holding a blue train in his hand.*

**Rodrick**: Barnacles..

**Manny**: Look, just take me to a hospital, please

**Rodrick**: sure thing, Rodger put him in the car please

*Rodger puts Manny in the car and Rodrick drives him to the hospital crazy fast while running over even more pedestrians. He nearly hits Arion and his dog. Arion's feet get ran over but Sugar is perfectly fine.*

**Arion**: AW, COME ON!!! YOU RAN OVER MY FEET!!! (Jumps around in pain)

**Sugar**: (barks: I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE!!)

**Arion**: (looks at Sugar again) Okay, for real, what is wrong with you, dog?!

**Rodrick**: (yells, while approaching the hospital.) THIS IS THE GREATEST PLAN!!!

*Rodrick crashes head first into the emergency room with Rodger’s car and it leaves a giant hole in the wall. The car crashes at the front desk and it starts to honk loudly. Rodger and Rodrick are a little bit injured.*

**Rodger**: I’m billing you for my car’s repair bills…

*Later on, Manny is seen laying in bed sleeping while his legs heal and Rodrick walks out to Rodger who is waiting in his car.*

**Rodrick**: he’ll be fine in a few seasons on the show. He has his train toy to keep him company.

*Rodger drives Rodrick home and Rodger watches him walk inside. Rodrick smiles and gives him a thumbs up. Rodrick talks to himself.*

**Rodrick**: I should probably get anger management class

*Rodger drives off and the episode ends.*
