Strength Struggles/Transcript

(Scene opens to the Main 4 and TwoBrains walking to the gym)

Shaduck: I can’t believe you convinced us to just watch some guy lift weights, there’s no adventure in that!

TwoBrains: He’s not just some guy, he’s my boyfriend!

Shaduck: Yeah, and to you only.

Limefong: Come on, Shaduck, be a supporting friend!

Shaduck: Friend? I hardly know the guy! The only reason I do know him is because he’s Candle Man’s friend and TwoBrain’s girlfriend.

TwoBrains: Trust me, he’s lifted a lot of really heavy weights! You’ll be amazed by what he can do!

Shaduck: Ugh, whatever. Let’s just get this thing over with.

(They all walk into the gym, to see Pesron and many other people working out. Pesron sees TwoBrains and the rest come in and quits what he was doing)

Pesron: Hey, good hussle today, guys.

(Pesron’s workout friends mutter to themselves and walk away)

Pesron: Hey there, beautiful legend.

(TwoBrains and Pesron hug)

Candle Man: Hee hee, lovebirds!

(TwoBrains and Pesron blush)

TwoBrains: So… your workout session?

Pesron: Right! Prepare to be amazed everyone.

(Pesron and the rest walk over to a 2,841kg weight)

TwoBrains: Woah!

Mystic: That thing is massive!

Pesron: I know right? And I’m about to lift the whole thing and break the world record of the strongest man in the entire universe!

Candle Man: (in shock) No!

Pesron: Yes!

(Pesron begins to lift the weight, struggling)

Candle Man: Go on, Pesron! You can do it!

Shaduck: Yeah! Move them arms!

(Pesron continues to struggle until finally lifting it up)

TwoBrains and the Main 4: Wow! Woo hoo!

Pesron: Thank you! Thank you!

Man: Woah! Ladies and Gentlemen, look what we have here! A new record breaker! We have to tell the Harvestown world records company about this! They’ll surely put it in their boo-

(Kid opens the gym door, pushes it open only with one hand)

Kid: Pff. You think this guy is strong?

Limefong: I’d like to see you do any better.

Kid: Sure, I can prove I’m stronger than this guy in a matter of milliseconds.

Limefong: We’re looking.

(Kid walks up to Pesron)

Kid: Move aside, chump.

Pesron: I’d be danged if a kid like you could lift a weight as heavy as this.

Kid: Heh, we’ll see.

(The kid takes a deep breath, cracks his knuckles and lifts the weight up without a sweat)

Pesron: WHAT!?

Limefong: Impossible!

Kid: Sure is possible!

(Kid drops the weight on the floor, causing a crack)

Kid: (close up) I just did it.

Man: You’re going to have to pay for that though.

(Scene cuts to theme song)

Pesron: How can a kid as little as him, be stronger than me?

Candle Man: Maybe he’s a descendant of a really strong family?

Pesron: If a kid can lift up a weight with no sweat, that means I’m not strong enough!

TwoBrains: Wait, Pesron. You’re already pretty strong for a guy like you! Who cares if some kid may have been a bit stronger, right guys?

Main 4: Yeah!

Pesron: I’m sorry but I’m gonna just have to work harder! I cannot let my reputation as the strongest man in the universe be ruined by some baby!

TwoBrains: Ok, sweetie. Just don’t overdo it, ok? (TwoBrains kisses Pesron on the cheeks)

Pesron: Alright, legend.

Candle Man: We’ll leave you to it.

(The Main 4 and TwoBrains leave the gym as the scene cuts to night)

TwoBrains: I’m starting to get worried about him, it’s night and he hasn’t been answering my calls or texts or-

Limefong: (puts his paw on her shoulder, calming her down) It’s okay. He’s probably just really trying to get stronger than that kid.

TwoBrains: But that’s the problem. I don’t want him to workout to an unhealthy extent.

Limefong: I’m sure he won’t get to that point. Let’s just hope for the best.

(TwoBrains sighs)

TwoBrains: You’re right. Let’s.

(Meanwhile, at the gym. Pesron and his friends are all still working out.)

Workout Friend: Alright, Pesron, we’re gonna wrap up for the day.

Pesron: Sorry, guys. I need to stay here and work out for a bit longer.

Workout Friend: Dude, don’t let that kid get to you-

Pesron: LEAVE ME ALONE!

(Pesron’s workout friends leave without saying anything. After they do, Pesron starts crying. The scene then cuts to the workout friends walking past the Candle House.)

TwoBrains: Look! Those are all Pesron’s workout friends! That must mean Pesron should be coming home!

(TwoBrains continues to look but Pesron isn’t there)

TwoBrains: No… no…

Candle Man: What’s wrong?

TwoBrains: He isn’t with them!

Shaduck: Uh, with who?

TwoBrains: His workout buddies! They came out in a big group, but Pesron wasn’t with them!

Limefong: Chill, girl! He’s probably still working out at the gym, just on his own.

TwoBrains: You don’t understand! He *always* leaves with his friends!

Candle Man: Maybe he’s gone to eat?

TwoBrains: He eats with them.

Mystic: Gone to relax?

TwoBrains: He relaxes with them!

Shaduck: Gone to work out?

(Candle Man, Mystic and Limefong stare at Shaduck)

Shaduck: …in another gym?

TwoBrains: That’s it, I’m checking on him.

(TwoBrains walks out the Candle house and goes to the gym)

TwoBrains: Pesron? Pesron?

(TwoBrains spots Pesron, but he doesn’t say anything)

TwoBrains: Pesron! There you are! You worried me to death!

(Pesron continues to ignore her and workout)

TwoBrains: You need to come home.

(Pesron stays silent)

TwoBrains: Now!

(TwoBrains touches Pesron’s arm but he pushes her away)

TwoBrains: Pesron..

Gym Owner: Alright, we’re closing up now, time to leave.

TwoBrains: Come on, Pesron!

Pesron: No.

Gym Owner: Chop chop! Move it! You got 5 seconds before I call security.

Pesron: I said NO!

(Gym Owner takes out his walkie talk and starts speaking through it)

Gym Owner: Carl, I’m requesting backu-

(Pesron slaps the walkie-talkie out of the Gym Owner’s hand and crushes it under his feet)

Gym Owner: Sir, what do you think you are doing?

TwoBrains: Pesron, you’re getting out of control!

(Security comes into the room and brings TwoBrains out, dragging her with her arms)

TwoBrains: Let go of me! Pesron’s still in there!

Security Guard: Don’t worry, the others will take care of them.

(Security guard try to take Pesron, but he starts throwing them around and eventually pushes them all out of the gym as he locks the door. Meanwhile, the scene cuts back to the Candle House)

Shaduck: TwoBrains sure is taking her time.

Candle Man: Yeah, I hope she’s alright…

Limefong: Guys, something’s not right here!

Mystic: Yeah!

Shaduck: Huh?

Limefong: How could that kid actually have lifted that entire weight up! It just doesn’t match up!

Mystic: Especially how Pesron is, well, was, the strongest man in the universe. How could a kid beat him!

Candle Man: I don’t know for sure. But we’re going to get to the bottom of this.

(The scene cuts to the police in helicopters using megaphones to talk down to Pesron, whilst the windows are seen barricaded)

Police Officer: Let us in this instant or we will have to result to force!

(At Baghead’s house, he is watching this as it is on the news, somehow drinking chocolate milk, and as the police officer says this, he somehow spits his milk out)

Baghead: The police have the Force?

Police Office: (on TV) Physical force.

Baghead: Yeah, that makes more sense…

(Baghead looks at the floor, with spilt chocolate on it)

Baghead: Well, there goes a perfectly good cup of chocolate milk.

(Scene cuts back to the gym, where Pesron tries lifting up the weight seen at the beginning of the episode, and he does successfully without breaking a sweat)

Pesron: YES! I’m ready.

(Pesron uses one of the exercise bikes and pedals on it so much that it actually moves the wheels, he then escapes the gym secretively, without being seen, and rides to the kid’s house. Candle Man knocks on the kid’s house door as the Kid’s mom opens the door)

Kid’s mom: Uh, hi. Who are you exactly?

Candle Man: Are you aware your son goes to the local gym?

Kid’s mom: Oh, no. He used to but he bought this new gizmo that make him super strong.

Limefong: Why do you let your son go to the gy- I’m sorry what did you just say?

Kid’s mom: I said “Oh, no. He used to bu-”

Mystic: Not that part! The part about the “gizmo”?

Kid’s mom: Yeah, he bought that from a shop and it gave him the ability to be super strong.

(The Main 4 gasp)

Shaduck: That explains everything.

Kid’s mom: What exactly is “everything”?

Limefong: You se-

Kid: Mom! You revealed my secret!

Jimmy’s mom: What do you mean “secret”, Jimmy?

Candle Man: Yeah, Jimmy. Explain to your mother.

Jimmy: No!

Jimmy’s Mom: If you don’t explain to me what happened involving these people, that gizmo and you, I’m confiscating all of your video games!

Jimmy: Mom! (He sighs) Fine, I-

(Something is heard shattering upstairs)

Jimmy’s Mom: What was that?

(The Main 4, Jimmy and his mom run upstairs to see Pesron, who had broken into their house. He stands in Jimmy’s bedroom)

Jimmy: My window!

Pesron: (insanely) Hey, kid. Want a rematch?

Jimmy’s Mom: Rematch? Can someone please explain what is going on here!

Candle Man: Pesron! It’s all a lie!

Pesron: What do you mean?

Mystic: Little Jimmy isn’t strong, he is using an invention to increase his strength!

Pesron: So, that kid used a machine to manipulate his strength and my emotions simultaneously?

Shaduck: Yeah…

Whickey: (off-screen) Not quite.

Candle Man: Who said that?

Limefong: It sounded kinda like-

Whickey: ME! Whickey!

Jimmy’s mom: I think I need to lie down.

(Jimmy’s mom walks out of the room)

Whickey: Jimmy, here, bought the gizmo from me!

Limefong: But why?

Whickey: Because I had planned on this day all along. I’ve spied on you and your friends for countless days. I know Pesron’s routine and I knew exactly how to crush his spirit!

Pesron: You did this… ON PURPOSE!?

Whickey: Duh, why else would I?

Pesron: You don’t know how much stress you put me under today.

Whickey: Oh, I don’t, and I don’t care! Because I want to put you under stress!

Pesron: You sick monster!

(Police officers break into the house and go upstairs)

Police Officer: FREEZE!

Candle Man: Wait officer, this wasn’t Pesron’s fault! He (points at Whickey) sold an invention to him (points to Jimmy) which made him super strong, and when he proved that he was falsely stronger than Pesron, Pesron started working out too much and got to the point where he would start to get so obsessed with surpassing this kid! But it was all fake.

Police Officer: Mr. Hickey, do you have a permit for selling such items?

Whickey: Uh, HOCUS POCUS!

(Whickey releases a smoke bomb and disappears)

Police Officer: We’ll have to the search for him, meanwhile you, Mr. Strnog, you are let off the hook, just barely though.

Pesron: Phew, thanks officer.

(Police Officer raises his up and down hat, in a polite gesture)

Police Officer: (to his fellow police officers) Move out everyone. Go, go, go!

(The police officers all march out of the house)

Pesron: I’ll be taking that.

(Pesron takes the invention away from Jimmy and destroys it)

Jimmy: Ugh, you’re no fun.

Pesron: That’s not fun, kid and neither are you.

(The Main 4 and Pesron walk out of his house)

Jimmy’s mom: (off-screen) You’ve got some explaining to do, mister.

(Jimmy looks up to see at his mother, giving him an angry glare. Pesron walks back to the Candle House, where TwoBrains is seen worrying, until she sees him and gives him a big hug)

TwoBrains: Oh, Pesron! You’re back!

Pesron: Yes, indeed I am. And I’m sorry, I promise I will never let my strength overcome me ever again.

TwoBrains: That’s good to hear, my sweet.

(TwoBrains and Pesron kiss)

Candle Man: Hee hee! Lovebirds!
Limefong: Now, shall we tell the people who is the real record breaker?

Pesron: Nah, I don’t care about some silly book. All I truly need is my friends, you guys!

Candle Man, Limefong, TwoBrains: Aww.

Shaduck: Boo.

Mystic: Cheesy.

Limefong: Well, at least you two can agree on something.
