You and I need to have a little talk.

(Bored: ) ♪ peaches' modern life.

What's this?

Ah, some new cartoon.

♪ Peaches' modern life.

Looks boring.

Yeah.

Yawn, yawn, yawn.

Spunky.

Spunky.

Rocko (reading ): "from the moment he first laid eyes on agnes

"Really, really big man knew it was love at first sight.

"Oh, agnes, to prove my love for you

"I would swim the highest mountain.

"Or climb the deepest sea

"I'd even put on this chicken suit

"And dance the tango

In a vat of egg salad to show my love for you"?

You've got to be joking!

That's just stupid.

I'd never do anything crazy to impress a woman.

(Rings )

(Clears throat )

Hi! I'd like to buy this week's issue of

Roller derby women from planet

Featuring twinkie, the wonder worm.

Sure.

(Hemming and hawing )

Hello?

Are you okay?

(Stammering )

Well... Here's my money.

I'll just, uh, leave it on the counter.

Well, thanks.

Bye, now.

(Bell rings )

Hi, sheila.

Hi, heff.

Bye, sheila.

Bye, heff.

Bye, bye.

Bye, bye... Bye, now.

(Babbling )

What's up?

Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.

Rocko?

Hey, are you

In some kind of trance or something?

Rocko?

Snap out of it!

Oh, no!

He looks love-struck!

Bye, bye, bye.

Bye, bye, bye...

(Coughing, gagging )

Wow, you were really out of it.

Heff, that dream on wheels?

You know her?

Who, sheila?

Sure, I know her.

She's one of the regulars down at the roll-o-dome.

I didn't know you were into roller skating.

(Crashing )

Oh, yeah

I'm into a lot of stuff that you don't know about.

Kilt tossing...

Rat curling...

Skunk mining...

Gee, how interesting, say...

Could you introduce me to sheila?

Well, sure, but...

Oh, I get it!

Rocko's in love!

I am not!

♪ Rocko loves sheila

♪ Rocko and sheila

♪ Sitting in a tree...

Kissing!

Heffer!

Oops. Sorry.

If you want to meet her

You should come down to the rink with me.

Gee, heff, I've never roller skated before.

I'd look like an idiot.

I can teach you.

It'd be a hoot!

Heffer: you'll have a swell time.

Skating is a lot more hip than most people realize.

Hey, king.

Hi, wendell. Two, please.

"King"?

That's what they call me here.

Welcome to my domain.

It's the king, wow!

Oh, he's so graceful!

It's the king! It's really him.

Gee, mr. Roller skating king, may I have your royal signature?

Well, these rental skates seem very nice.

I'm a wallaby on wheels.

Terrific!

Oof!

This is going to be harder than I thought.

You'll do better when we get on the rink.

Okay, all skate.

Try not to flail so much.

Now backwards.

Be the skates, rock.

Skate on your hands.

Try to get all five of your stomachs

Evenly distributed over the skates.

Skate on your nose.

(Muffled ): put your nostrils into it.

Skate all willy-nilly like an idiot.

Now you're getting it!

Don't worry, rock.

You're doing pretty good for a first time.

I just want to look cool on these before sheila sees me.

Hi, sheila.

Who's your friend?

That's rocko.

Hi, rocko.

Nice to meet you.

What are you doing down there?

Oh. Heh, heh.

I was, um, heh-heh, exercising.

, ...

Attention, skaters.

This next skate is a sadie hawkins

So it's ladies' choice.

Hey, rocko, would you like to skate with me?

Uh, me?

Well, i, uh...

Heh-heh.

He'd love to!

Wha...?

But first we got to go to the bathroom.

But I don't have to go to the...

Yes, you do.

Gee, rocko, you're a smooth skater.

Thanks. You're great, too.

It's like your skates don't even touch the ground.

Heh-heh. Yeah.

Deejay: ladies and gentlemen

Please clear the floor for our spotlight show.

Here, I'll be back in a minute.

For your viewing pleasure

We are pleased to present the skate stylings

Of the king!

(Cheering, girls screaming )

("Blue danube" waltz playing )

That's him, it's him.

Oh, see how graceful he is on those wheels!

(Cheering continues )

("Blue danube" continues )

He's terrific!

("Blue danube" ends, crowd cheers )

(Disco music begins )

(Crowd cheering )

(Hard-driving rock tune )

(Rock music continues )

Wow! Look at him go!

Isn't that impressive?

Well, it's not that impressive, I mean... I could do that.

Yeah! I could even do better.

Excuse me, sir.

What's the most impressive skating trick you've got?

That'd be the obstacle course.

Well, I'd like to try it!

Okay.

(Whirring, humming )

(Clanking )

Wow, that looks way too dangerous.

But I can't back out now.

What would sheila think?

Oh, what should I do?

Announcer: it's the heart against the brain

Ladies and gentlemen!

In the red corner, representing emotions and infatuation

Rocko's heart!

In the gray corner

Fighting for logic and self-preservation

Rocko's brain!

(Bell rings )

And there's the bell!

It's a knockout, ladies and gentlemen!

Emotions win over self-preservation.

(Screeches to halt )

Nice routine, heff.

Thanks. Where's rocko?

He's going to do the obstacle course.

What?!

Maybe I could just go back down the ladder.

Wait... Why am I moving?

Heff: way to go, rock!

Oh, no!

He can't stop!

And it's downhill all the way to the o-town bottomless pit!

Programs!

Can't tell the bottomless pit

From a hole in the ground

Without your program!

I've got to save him.

Rocko?

Give me your hand.

Now, now, just let me do all the work.

Heff! Hurry!

There's road construction ahead!

Not yet!

Heff!

Wow! That was close.

Oh, no! Heff's out of control!

I've got to stop him!

Excuse me, could I borrow your jackhammer?

Sure, little fella.

Do you know how to use it?

Doi know how to use it?!

Wow! He's good.

Heff, wake up!

Well, that's not going to work.

Well, that was close.

Rocko, that was wonderful!

You saved heff!

Well, heh, he saved me first.

Look, sheila, I have a confession to make.

I'm not really a good skater.

The truth is, I just wanted to impress you.

You're a nice guy, rocko.

That's what impresses me.

I will say this, though.

You sure know how to handle a jackhammer.

Thanks. It's a hobby.

Are you interested in jackhammering?

Hey! I'm sitting on top of the world!

(Laughing )

Top of the world, ma!

(Laughing )

(Cracking )

(Screaming )

(Heff screaming ) oh, yes.

Could you teach me?

It would be my pleasure.

Hop on!

(Heff continues screaming )

There's a nice rock quarry just a few blocks from here

Where the cutters make their living.

But they'll let us jump around there.

(Heff catches breath )

(Resumes screaming )
