01x05 - Double Bubble

[bunniefuu]

Male voice: ah!
Look at them pearls!

Wow, I've gotta
have them pearls.

But, boss, you never go
anyplace classy enough
to wear pearls.

I don't wanna wear 'em,
you barnacle brain!

I just want 'em, see?

Shrimp: oh, yeah. (Chuckles)
sure, boss, I know that.

High-pitched voice: announcing
the count and countess

Of clambakersfield!

Ah, my good friends.

How long has it been?

The last time we saw you,
your hair was still red.

And you
were not yet a father.

Is this ariel?

The last time I saw you,
you were no bigger
than a minnow.

Come look
at the twins, ariel.

Ariel: my, what perfect
little angel fish.

Tonight, I shall
personally conduct

The rite of passage ceremony
for your mertwins.

But first,
how about a tour of atlantica?

Oh, my! Oh, sounds
like an ocean of fun.

-But we have no babysitter.
-I'll take care of them.

Why, ariel,
that would be wonderful.

Ariel,
babysitting is hard work.

And that's just with one baby.

Oh, daddy, I can do it.

They'll be no trouble at all.

Ariel,
what is going on here?

Oh, just, uh,
babysitting, sebastian.

Oh! The clambakersfield twins.

Ariel, this is no way
to handle babies.

You must use
the child "psychololigy."

Do the gentle voice,

-The caring claw.
-Both: ah!

Cootchie-cootchie-coo!
Cootchie-cootchie-coo!

Cootchie-cootchie-coo!
Ha! See?

I know how
to handle babies. Oh!

-(Twins laughing)
-stop it! (Laughs)

Babies! Babies!
No! (Laughing)

Keep an eye on them,
mr. Expert.

I'll get some of my old toys
for them to play with.

Some old unbreakable toys.

(Gasping) no.

(Laughs) oh, no! (Sighs)

No!

Flounder, let me tell you
the proper way
to care for babies.

You see, I come
from a very large family.

Why, during the baby boom,
my family nearly exploded.

Yeah, I've been watching babies
since... When I was a baby.

Oh! What a cute
crab child I was,

With my little claws
and big eyes.

How are things going
with the children?

Just fine.
Notice how quiet they are?

(Gasps) they're gone!

Gone?

Excuse me, I'm looking
for twin merbabies.

-Have you seen them?
-Yeah, they look like this.

Only cuter.

Oh, it's all my fault.

Hmm... Don't blame
yourself, ariel.

Yeah, you're right,
sebastian.

You were the one
who lost them.

Me?

You were the babysitter.

Yeah, but you said you
were a baby expert!

Well, you were the one
who listened to me!

Hey, boss,
if we get ahold
of those twins,

We can force their mother
to give us her pearls.

Hey, I got an idea.
If I get ahold of those twins,

I can force their mother
to give me her pearls.

How do I think
of these things?

That's what makes
you the boss, boss.

This'll give me the chance

To use the new
second-hand bubble g*n

I just took over
in the marketplace.

Does it work?

It works.

And here is
the atlantica marketplace.

Oh, very impressive.

Oh, the children
would love this.

I hope they're getting
along all right with ariel.

Um, I'm sure everything's
going... Swimmingly.

There they are.

Flounder,
decoy plan number one.

Oh, I hate plan number one.

Flounder: hey, squidly.

Bet you can't catch me.

Naa-naa-na-na-naaa.
(Blows raspberry)

-Flounder: ariel!
-(Ariel gasps)

Keep an eye on the twins.

Woe is me.
What else could go wrong?

This has possibilities.

I'm taking over
these twins, see?

They're mine.
All mine.

All right, shrimp.
Let 'em have it.

(Gasps) kids!

Don't ever take candy
from strangers!

Ariel! Help!

Yoo-hoo!
Hey, you big bully.

Why don't you pick
on someone your own size?

Or even one-fourth your size,
like me?

Flounder, look!

Phew! That was a close one.

That'll teach you
to stick your nose
where it don't belong!

Sebastian,
where are the twins?

This time it was not my fault.

As soon as I catch my breath,

I'm taking over this hill, see?

Forgive me for asking, boss,
but what do we
need this hill for?

So's I can throw you down it.

(Sighs) daddy tried to warn me.

As a babysitter,
I'm a big flop.

Don't feel bad, ariel.
We're just as big
a flop as you are.

Flounder's right, ariel.
We're all a bunch of flops.

Thanks. (Sighs)
I wonder where they could be.

You know, I heard
the lobster mobster tell the
shrimp to head for the hills.

(Gasps) come on!

Now look, you two.

I took over this shack
from an old hermit crab, see?

That was great.
He didn't want it anymore.

I can't imagine why.

Put those brats to bed!

(Yawns)
heading for the hills
tired me out.

You watch the little tadpoles
while I catch some z's.

Oh, great. Catch some for me,
will you, boss?

Uh, yeah. Right.

-Keep those kids quiet!
-Okay, boss.

You can count on me, boss.

I can be as quiet
as a clam, boss.

You want quiet, you got quiet.

Why, I was so quiet once,
nobody heard about it.

-Uh, shrimp...
-Yeah?

Shut up!

Lobster mobster:
I'm taking over this.

(Snores)
I'm taking over that.

I'm taking over...
In general, see?

I thought
I told youse to be quiet!

The little sea monkeys
won't go to sleep.

I guess I gotta do everything
myself around here.
I don't know why i...

Now listen, youse little mugs!

Uncle lobster's gonna
sing youse two a lullaby, see?

And you're gonna love it.

Good night, see?

Pleasant dreams,
you get me? Yeah.

Aw, they're sweeter
than a pardon from prison.

After them!

They're heading
for that whirlpool!

I got 'em. I got 'em.

It's got me! It's got me!

I gotcha. I gotcha.

Both:
it's got us! It's got us!

Hang on, everyone!

Ariel, surely
you aren't going to-- ahh!

Come back here,
youse little coral climbers.

Sebastian? Flounder!

Flounder: over here!
Sebastian.

Sebastian. Sebastian!

Wake up.

-Wake up!
-Ah!

Oh, sebastian,
this is no time to rest.

Oh! The king's never
gonna trust you again.

And my job-- huh!

No, sebastian,
it was my responsibility.

The important thing now
is saving those babies.

Don't let that whale
make a getaway!

Those little sea slugs
might get hurt.

And, uh, well, uh... Nobody's
gonna pay for damaged goods.

-Right, shrimp?
-Oh, yeah. Nobody. Uh, yeah.

You know,
this would be much easier

If we could grab a ride
on a fish, too.

-How 'bout that shark, boss?
-Yeah, well--

Both: shark!

Sebastian, go back
to the palace and stall.

We'll save them.

We ain't going in there,
are we, boss?

Uh, yeah. Why not? Uh...

Them mertwins is worth
a fortune to us. Come on.

Wha? Whee!

It's okay, kids. We've got
youse. We've got youse!

Don't worry, boss.

The kids is perfectly safe.

Nobody's gonna get hurt.

These twins are mine.
All mine, see?

Yeah.

(Laughs) I don't
know what was worse,

Taking care of these
little mud guppies
or dealing with that shark.

-The shark!
-I say the twins was worse.

No, no, boss. The shark.
The shark!

I disagree. The twins
was much worse than--

The shark! Ah! Look out!

Well, it's time to dress
the children for the ceremony.

Uh, I'll summon ariel.

Uh, ariel?

(Clears throat) ariel?

(Panting) oh, your majesty.

I'll fetch ariel
and the children,

But first
I simply must offer you

Some plankton pate. Hm?

Sebastian...
Ariel and the babies?

And what adorable babies
they are, sir! But first...

Did you know there are 101 ways
to prepare plankton?

Yes! Recipe number one:
you take some plankton,
you put a little--

Sebastian.

You look like you could
use a good rumba, mon. Come on.

-(Lively music plays)
-i learned this step

From a cute little crayfish
who had a thing for me.

Sebastian, where are they?

Ariel: here we are, father.

I got them all dressed
for their ceremony.

I offer these merchildren

To the four currents.

Soon they will swim.

And soon they will speak
the words of the merpeople.

When they do learn to speak,
I hope they won't talk
about what happened today.

Ah! Oh, my gosh!

You just took your first swim!

Ariel, you've done
such a wonderful job.

I do hope you'll babysit
for us every time we visit.

Ha! No way she
gonna do that.

Babysitting was, uh...

-Exhausting.
-Scary.

I'd love to do it again.
