[Door creaks]
[Thunder booming]
[Owl hooting]

[All gasp]
- [Yells]
[Baby crying]
- [Growls]
- [Screams]
[All screaming]
[Crowd cheering]
- [Gasps]

[Mouse squeaks]
- [Grunting]
[All cheering]
- Hey, hey,
Yo, ho, ho, ho!
Ta-da!
Ha, ha.
Bleagh!
- That gludge is awesome.
- Yes, he is
Awesome.
- What is so grea
About gludge, huh?
You'’d think nobody ever scared
An olympic weight lifting team
Before.
[Bell ringing]
Crowd:
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!
- Hey, huh, ohh!
Crowd: yay!
[Buzzer blares]
[Whistle screams]
[Crowd cheering]
- Is he not perfectly hideous?
- He'’s perfectly something.
- Why don'’t you go over to him?
- He'’s surrounded.
He'’ll never notice me.
- Oh, oh, oh.
Take away his popularity,
His looks,
His great scaring technique,
And what do you have, hmm?
- You.
- You'’re not afraid
To talk to ickis.
- [Sighs]
Oh, you'’re right.
I'’m going over there.
Why should I be nervous?
After all,
Gludge is a monster
Just like any other monster.
[Indistinct chatter]
Move.
- [Sniffs]
Here.
For you.
- Oh, I'’m sure I couldn'’t.
- Of course you could.
- [Sniffs]
[Sighs]
Did you see that?
He likes me!
- Oh, one moldy towel,
And you'’re all swoony.
Aren'’t you getting
A little ahead of yourself here?
- Today a towel,
Tomorrow
A towel rack.
[All yawning]
Can you believe it?
Gludge finally notices me,
And I have to get braces
Tomorrow.
- You should'’ve never brushed
Your teeth 30 years ago.
- Yeah, and you floss too.
- Just once!
To see what it felt like.
- Well, you'’re paying
For it now, aren'’t you?
See?
They'’re sparkling.
So straight.
- You'’re right.
[Sobbing]
- [Snoring]
- [Sniffs]
Good night,
You rancid little charmer.
[Metal rattling]
- Beautiful screamer
[Humming]
- Do you really think braces
Are necessary?
Couldn'’t we try something
A little less severe?
- You want a smile that beams
Or one that'’s truly repulsive?
- Well--
- This won'’t hurt a bit.
I love saying that.
[Metal clanging,
Drills whirring]
[Welding torch crackling]
So, oblina,
How do you like school?
- [Mumbling]
- Uh-huh.
Ah, and the gromble,
How is that old codger doing?
- [Mumbling]
- Of course he is.
Just a few more minutes,
And I'’ll be all done.
- [Screams]
- Ta-da!
Ah,
And to think they said
I'’d never make I
Through dental school.
- You cannot be serious!
I cannot talk.
I cannot see.
I look stupid.
- You look fabulous.
- I look ridiculous.
- True.
But in two weeks,
You'’ll look fabulous.
- Two weeks?
Two weeks!
I want them off now!
- No can do.
[Clock ticking]
- It'’s so shiny.
- And big--
Very, very big.
- It'’s just awful,
Isn'’t it?
- I like it.
- Awful? No.
I wouldn'’t call it awful.
But it definitely
Makes a statement.
- [Sniffles]
Really?
- Oh, sure, sure.
It says, um--
It says,
"This is a monster
Who'’s gonna have
The most crooked teeth around."
Eventually.
- I hate them!
I look like
A household appliance.
- I like appliances.
- Oh, oblina,
It'’s just your teeth.
I think you'’re griping
Entirely too much here.
- I do not need a lecture!
I need help!
[Screams]
[Yelps]
[Muffled]
How do they look now?
- Oh, oh, oh.
[Chuckles]
No one will ever notice.
[Laughter]
[Metal creaking]
- [Chuckles]
All right, don'’t I know you?
- I'’m
Oblina.
- Wow.
You look really putrid.
- Thank you.
- Hmm,
You'’re probably busy,
A loathsome little package
Like you,
But hey,
If you'’re no
Doing anything tonight,
Maybe you'’d like to--
- I'’d love to!
- Great.
I think we could have some fun.
- I love fun!
- It'’ll be magic.
- I love magic!
- I'’ll pick you up later.
- Oh, I love later.
See you then, gludge.
Toody-loo.
- Oh, oh,
And, oblina
- Yes, gludge?
- Please be sure
To give those braces
A good polish.
- [Laughing]
Oh!
- That one.
Trust me.
I know these things.
- Ooh!
[Laughs]
[Squeals]
- Oh, why does he have
To come in here?
Why? Why? Why?
I hate that he'’s coming in here.
He'’ll strut around,
Flex his muscles.
It'’s a small room.
- Tonight I shall show gludgey
The scare of his life.
- You'’re taking him scaring?
- Why not?
I want to make an impression.
[Knock at door]
[Groaning]
[Sighs]
Shing!
- Ooh, looking sharp.
- Thank you.
- Do you mind
If I walk backwards?
Well, you see, this way,
I can look at you all night.
- I love all night.
- Ah, this stinks
Like a nice spot.
What do you say
We plant ourselves,
Break open a few hefty bags,
And you could tell me
What you really think about me?
[Grunts]
[Burps]
- Sounds lovely, gludgey,
But I thought we could
Spend the night scaring.
- Scaring?
[Laughs]
Why?
- Oh, I don'’t know.
You, me,
A few humans
Screaming in the night--
Doesn'’t that sound marvelous?
- Sure, it does.
But hey,
What'’s wrong with staying here?
There'’s plenty to eat and--
- And there'’s nothing
Like a good scare.
- Why don'’t we
Go down to the pits
And watch the tar bubbles pop?
- Come on!
We'’re going scaring.
How about if I hide
In one of those machines,
You climb up there
And wait for my signal?
- Better yet,
You scare '’em, and I'’ll watch.
- You don'’t want to do this?
- I told you
I'’m just not into it tonight.
- Oh, well,
If you really don'’t want to.
It'’s--it'’s me, isn'’t it?
[Crying]
- Hey, hey,
Do you have to do that?
- [Crying]
- Look, generally,
It would be you.
But in this case, it'’s--
It'’s--
[Sobbing]
It'’s me.
- You?
But you are the best.
Everyone still talks
About how you terrorized
Those weight lifters.
- Oh,
That was just a lucky scare.
- You just stopped trying.
That'’s all.
- Why should I try when I know
I can never top myself?
[Sniffles]
If only I weren'’t so fabulous,
Ooh,
I could be even more fabulous.
- It is not about that.
Turning a human
Into a mass of quaking jelly
Is supposed to be fun.
- [Sniffles]
What if I mess it up?
- Then you try again!
You don'’t have to be perfect.
[Roars]
- [Babbling]
- [Screams]
- [Howls]
[Laughs]
[Door slams]
- What is going on?
- I had the greatest time--
Just great!
Gludge was great,
And I was great,
And we were great!
- Great.
What does a guy have to do
To get some sleep around here?
- Guess why he'’s so great.
Guess.
Can'’t you guess?
Never mind.
I'’ll tell you!
- I'’m out of here.
- Ditto.
- Fine!
Then I'’ll just tell you.
First, he'’s absolutely hideous.
Second, he'’s--
Oh, you'’re dead.
[Chuckles]
Well,
I won'’t hold that against you.
Second, he'’s entirely gross.
Third, he'’s stinky.
Doo, doo, doo,
Nuh, nuh, nuh ♪
[Knock at door]
So what do you think?
- What happened to your braces?
- I just got them off!
Are my teeth grotesque?
- Well, yeah.
Uh
Amblina--
- Oblina.
- Whatever.
Um, some--something--
Something came up.
So I'’m not taking you
To the party.
You know,
Something kind of important,
So I guess, uh,
I'’ll be seeing you.
- What?
- Now,
That'’s what I call a vision.
[Laughs]
- [Sniffles]
He'’s gone.
- Don'’t let it get you down.
- Yeah, he'’s a bum.
- [Sniffles]
Oh,
He only liked me for my
Braces.
- Oh, well, what did you expect,
A shallow guy like that?
He never saw
The real oblina.
No, no, no.
That putrid mass of corruption
That is just uniquely you.
- [Gasps]
You think so?
- Absolutely.
- Whatever he said.
- Oh, thank you, guys.
It is really grea
Having friends like you.
- Like him or like me?
[Glass shattering]
[Rumbling]
- [Gulping]
[Water splashing]
[Rumbling]
- [Squeals]
[Both shouting]
- Okay.
Uh, hard right.
Hard right.
Keep going.
Keep going.
[Gasps]
[Both yelling]
I don'’t know how you do it.
Aren'’t you scared?
- Nah, I know this course
Like the hair on my pits.
[Dissonant guitar strum]
- Oh, you are gonna be
The champ.
I can feel it!
When the great wave arrives,
The others are just gonna
Eat your crust.
- What about the snorch?
- Oh, it'’s not fair.
The snorch
Shouldn'’t be in the race.
- You'’re gonna tell him that?
- No.
Oh, who cares about the snorch?
You are gonna be
At that finish line
Before he can scrape the mold
Out of his belly button.
[Laughs]
[Winch creaking]
- Voila.
Completely and thoroughly
Disgusting.
Bon appetit.
- [Snorting]
- Snorchy-poodles,
You missed a spot.
cr*ck!
Marvelous.
Now that your engine
Is stoked,
Let'’s begin your exercises.
- Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm.
- Close your eyes.
Let the slime ooze
From your pores.
- [Snores]
- That'’s it, my friend.
Become one
With your surroundings.
Bathe in your own repugnance.
Now,
Repeat after me.
I will be champion.
- [Groans]
- I am ready for the coming
Of the great wave!
- [Groans]
- Eccellente.
I will crush my challengers
Like flowers in spring.
- [Groans]
- Reminder:
It'’s importan
To always
Keep your
Focus!
- [Screams]
[Fly buzzing]
- [Clearing throat]
Due to an unfortunate accident,
Our reigning champion,
The snorch,
Will be unable to compete
In the annual riding
Of the great wave.
- [Gasps]
Startling.
- Yes!
Say hello to the new champion.
- Silence!
Now, with the snorch
Out of the competition,
I have the delectable
Responsibility
Of choosing a replacement.
Let me see.
Who among you
Would benefit the mos
From a little competition?
- I wonder
Who he'’s going to pick.
- Ah, it doesn'’t matter.
With the snorch gone,
There'’s no way I can lose.
- Are you not being
A bit presumptuous?
The gromble may very well choose
A superb athlete.
- Oh, maybe you'’re right.
- Mm.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Ickis!
- [Gasps]
- You'’ll make
A fine replacement.
- Then again
[Laughs]
[Imitating crowd cheering]
Oh, please, please,
No more applause. No more.
First, I would to thank my fans
And my fellow competitors.
I can only say
You never had a chance!
[Imitating crowd cheering]
- Oh, krumm,
You have been practicing
That speech for hours.
Go to bed!
- Yeah!
Some of us
Would like to get some sleep.
- But I'’m gonna be champion.
- How can you be sure
You are going to win?
- Who'’s gonna b*at me?
[Laughs]
- Five toenails on krumm.
- Eight worms and a leech
On krumm.
- 15 Maggots on ickis
To lose.
- [Sighs]
Krumm this, krumm that--
I do not see
What the big deal is.
Why did the gromble
Have to pick me?
- That is no
A very good attitude.
- Yeah, well, but it'’s true.
I haven'’t got a chance.
- Right now, you do not.
But with a little training,
You could be the next champion.
You know, you have the advantage
Over everyone else.
They all expect you to lose,
Right?
- Yeah. So?
- So if you train hard
And have a positive attitude,
You can take the others
By complete surprise.
- Well, gee, I never
Thought about it like that.
[Laughs]
Maybe I do have a chance.
- There'’s the spirit!
- I am gonna start training
Right now.
[Groaning]
[Fly buzzing]
[Yelps]
[Grunting]
cr*ck!
- [Roars]
- [Screams]
[Grunting]
[Fly buzzing]
[Yells]
[Yelping]
[Fly buzzing]

Chomp! Gulp!
[Laughs]
Boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.
When the great wave arrives,
Everyone'’s gonna be in
For a big surprise.
[Chuckling]
[Squeals]
Well,
Here goes.
[Screaming]
Ow! Ow! Ow!
[Babbling]
Whoa!
- Ickis,
What are you doing here?
- [Cackling]
I was--i was jus
Looking for pool gunk.
What are you doing here?
- What?
You think you'’re the only one
Who likes pool gunk?
Chomp!
- Who are you kidding?
You'’re training
For the big wave.
What'’s the matter?
Afraid of the competition?
- Who should I be scared of?
I'’m just doing
Some fine-tuning,
You know,
So I can set a new record.
- Don'’t count on it.
- See you at the finish line.
- Maybe.
[Indistinct chatter]
- Slugs!
Worms!
Slime-coated leeches!
Get them
While they'’re still squirming!
- [Grunting]
Chomp! Gulp!

Crowd:

I'’d like to remind you
That anyone caught drooling
In the no-slime section
Will be promptly ejected
From the stadium!
- [Slurps]
[Laughs]
Whoa!
- Please direct your attention
To the center of the field.
[Dissonant fanfare]
- [Grunting]
[Crowd cheering]
- Now for the momen
We'’ve all been waiting for.
Crowd:
Great wave! Great wave!
Great wave! Great wave!
Great wave! Great--
- Quiet!
Oh, I do love this job so.
Competitors, to your stations!
[Electronic whirring]
- Boy, oh, boy,
This is a lot of pressure.
- [Grunts]
Pressure'’s my middle name.
- Signora,may I offer you
Something to ride upon?
- No, thanks.
I have my own.
Bleagh!
- Good gracious.
- Hang 17.
[Laughs]
- Good luck.
- Thanks, krumm.
- You'’ll need it.
[Laughs]

Ah, a shortcut.

[Babbling]
[Coughing]
Ickis
You could'’ve won the race.
- Yeah, probably.
- [Coughs]
You would'’ve been champion.
- I know.
- I owe you one.
- Ah, you would'’ve done
The same for me.
[Crowd cheering]
- Ickis,
That was absolutely wonderful.
I have never seen
Such a display of courage!
Mwah!

You finished in one piece!

Right down to the wire!
But in the end--
Crowd:
Ickis! Ickis!

As I was saying
I'’d like to present this trophy
