01x23 - Let's Play Musical Friends

[bunniefuu]

Grrr!

No one at the pie festival
will guess

that beige berries
are my secret ingredient.

Unless one of these trees
is a spy in disguise.

I'm onto you, tree.
You'll never get the recipe. Never!

Hey, Sticks, how's tricks?

I see you're making
beige berry pie.

I don't know
what he's talking about.

I'm taking you
to live on a farm.

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I've got a few trees left to pick.

Looks like you could use
some help. Be right back.

♪ Grab-claw's connected
to the trap-jaw ♪

♪ Trap-jaw's connected
to the scoop-maw ♪

♪ Scoop-maw's connected to the
resistor coupling ion matrix ♪

Whoops. Needs voltage.
A lot of trees means a lot of Vs.

Nope. Nope. Nope.

[Sonic panting and grunting]

Yup!

You sure about this? You know
how Sticks is about machines.

But this thing runs
on natural energy. Yours.

It's better than going green.
It's going blue!

Say when.

When.

[rumbling]

Agh!

Well, my work here is done.

Your machine
destroyed the orchard.

Could be worse. At least
you still have the berries.

What happened here?

Looks like Tails
got himself into a jam. Ha!

-Get it?
-Not at all.

But I never leave a hog hanging.

At least one tree's
still standing.

Such senseless destruction.
Wonderful!

Our organisation could use
the mind that created this.

Send him a crimson letter.

I can't believe Sticks made me
replant the entire orchard.

Now I'm gonna miss
the pie festival.

This is for you.

[grunts and pants]

Maybe it'd be easier
if we just told you.

Your ingenuity
has earned you an invitation

to the bi-monthly
pot-luck dinner and raffle

of the super-secret
exclusive club known as...

[fanfare]

The Lightning Bolt Society.

Wow!
The Lightning Bolt Society?

Really? I've never heard of it.

That's because
it's super-secret. Duh.

Come. We'll take you
to our clubhouse.

Much as I'd love to go off
with you strangers,

my friends left me
with an entire orchard to plant.

Cool gizmo! How much was it?

Let's just say it was a steal.

Well, my work here is done.

And since I missed the festival,

I think I will take you up
on that pot-luck.

Notify the membership at once.

I've got him now.

You've stolen your last Sunday
paper, you furry little mutant.

Gah! Pop-up!
Wait. What's this?

It appears to be a status update
from the Lightning Bolt Society.

Pff! More like
Lightning Dolt Society.

That play on words should show
I think they're a bunch of pests.

Hey, you bums!
Get out of my trash!

Run!

Gotta invent some device to keep
those losers out of my garbage.

There. That ought to do it.

Why would those wannabes
initiate Tails into their group?

If they're with Sonic,
I'll never get them out of my trash.

To the Eggmobile!

Tails! We're back. Sticks won.

And we've got some pie for you.

He's gone.

And all the seeds are planted.

He couldn't have done it so fast
unless he used...

One of his inventions.

I was gonna say alien magic,
but that was a good guess.

What's going on here?

[sniffs]

What's this?
Some kind of pulped wood?

It's an envelope, Sticks.

Tails is invited to join
the Lightning Bolt Society?

Aren't they the crooks who steal
from the village fruit stand?

And they've clearly
mistaken Tails for a lemon.

Pff! Ha! What fools!

You two stay here
and keep these traps shut.

Amy and I are going after Tails.

Tails, welcome! Such an honour.
I assume you've met everyone.

Actually, no. Though that tree
looks really familiar.

Zipper's stuck.
Nice to meet you.

Have you tried the shrimp?

What did you bring
to the pot-luck?

Oh, uh,
all I had was beige berry jelly.

It's full of dirt and twigs.

Ha! I told you he was evil.
Do I know how to pick 'em or what?

I say we crash
through the window.

I say we dress up
like pizza delivery guys.

-My idea has pizazz.
-My idea has pizza.

-Pizazz!
-Pizza!

-Pizazz!
-Pizza!

Could you hold this door open
while I go...

[both] Not now!

-Pizazz!
-Pizza!

The Lightning Bolt Society is proud
to welcome our new member.

He's a deforestation sensation
and a berry bad boy.

I give you... Tails!

He brought the jam
with the dirt in it.

Oh, uh... thanks.

It's an honour to be
among so many...

guys with hats like this one.

With an evil genius like Tails
to lead us,

we can go from two-bit crooks
to four-bit crooks.

-Or even eight-bit crooks.
-Yes!

Combining the warped genius
of Tails' deforestation machine

and Eggman's
mutant seed g*n,

we can finally launch
our master plan

to control all the fruit
in the village and beyond.

Yeah... uh, having understood
very little of that,

did I hear the word "evil"
in there?

Indeed! With you as our evil
leader, we'll be unstoppable.

When it comes to fruit.

Yeah. Um...

This is a little embarrassing
but... I'm not evil.

[all gasp and mutter]

You betrayed us all.

That sounds pretty evil to me.

Now I'm just confused.

-Guys?
-[both] Tails!

-Dolts!
-Eggman?

I gotta admit that had pizazz.

Sonic, I've seen through
your plan

to team up
with the Lightning Bolts.

What? I thought
you teamed up with them.

-I'm here to rescue Tails.
-Ahem.

We. I said "we", didn't I?

Me? Team up with these dolts?

Hey, hey. Words hurt.

I'd never team up with these...
dolts.

I'm sorry,
there's no other word for you.

So whose side are you on?

We're doing our best to be bad.

-Then get Sonic!
-We don't have any weapons.

What kind of villains are you?
Find some!

Really? That's all
you could come up with?

I'm not gonna say it,
but you know what I'm thinking...

you dolts.

-Guess it's just you and me.
-Ahem.

I meant you plural, as in
"the two of you and me".

Hey, are we gonna battle
or what?

Actually, Dr Eggman, sir...

I was wondering if you could
autograph my trunk.

-Me too!
-[all] Sign my fez!

You seem busy, Mr Popularity.

I'll catch you
on the flip-flop.

Gah!

Yah!

Uh, it rained
while you were gone.

Nice going, Tails.

That machine of yours
was good for something after all.

And your paranoid ramblings
weren't detached from reality.

Good talk! Now get planting.

I'd stay and help, but a nice
tree invited me and my pie

to a pot-luck dinner
at some lodge.

Oops. Almost forgot
the sesame seeds.

Hm-hm!

[laughs crazily]
