05x05 - Save Mojo - Substitute Creature

Post by bunniefuu »

Sugar,

spice...

and everything nice.

These were the ingredients
chosen to create the perfect little girl.

But Professor Utonium accidentally
added an extra ingredient

to the concoction--

Chemical X.

[expl*si*n]

Thus the Powerpuff Girls
were born!

Using their ultra-superpowers,

Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup
have dedicated their lives

to fighting crime
and the forces of evil!

NARRATOR:
The city of Townsville...

a friendly metropolis where
man and nature live in harmony.

The citizens of Townsville
value their animal companions,

and everyone has
a "you scratch my back,

I'll pet yours" attitude.

But wait.

There's one animal that
doesn't play well with others:

the mutated monkey
Mojo Jojo.

In one of his more
pathetic disguises, I might add.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

This ordinary
hardware supply store

has the perfection selection
from which to select supplies

to begin the construction

of my ultimate Townsville
destruction device,

the only purpose of which
is to destroy Townsville!

May I help you, sir?

No. I'm good.

Not so fast!

Mojo...

Jojo!

I'm sorry.

I think you must have me
mistaken for someone else--

[groaning]

Mercy.

Let's finish him off,
girls.

Not so fast,
Powerpuff Girls.

- Huh? - Huh?
- Huh?

You are in violation

of Townsville ordinance


cruelty to animals.

Citizens, this is no
defenseless animal.

This is a criminal
mastermind bent on

the destruction
of mankind.

He's evil and cruel,

and doesn't deserve
your sympathy.

So if you don't mind,
release the monkey.

Evil and cruel?

He is merely acting upon
his natural instincts.

Would you call
the noble lion cruel

for preying upon the antelope
to feed his young?

Is the resourceful
beaver evil

for felling a tree
to build his dam?

Ha. Well, that's
a little different.

Yeah. Lions and beavers
are cute.

Typical. That is
why we are here.

Our furry brothers
need protection

from the likes of you.

That's right!

Uh, I mean...

[sobbing]

These mean girls
always beat me up

for doing
nothing more than

innocently following
my natural instincts.

All these years getting
maimed and mauled

by these malicious
monkey bashers.

You can imagine
the veterinary bills.

[sobbing]

There, there,
little monkey dude.

I'm being oppressed!

Ha! Stay back,
Powerpuffs.

The law protects
this harmless creature,

and that is that.

Harmless?

I'll show you harmless.

Save Mojo!

Save Mojo!

ALL: Save Mojo!
Save Mojo!

Save Mojo! Save Mojo!
Save Mojo!

I'm afraid they're right,
Buttercup.

Mojo is an animal.

A freakish, evil,
twisted animal,

but an animal no less.

And he's protected
under the law.

And so is this
peaceful protest.

As long as
they're around,

we can't touch him.

BUTTERCUP:
Ugh. Stupid laws.

Heh heh heh.

Wow!

What a rare glimpse
of animal magnetism.

Not so fast,
Mojo Jojo!

Ooh, I'm being oppressed.

Not so fast,
Powerpuff Girls.

[no audio]

Whoa!

His primal gathering skills
are expl*sive.

[ringing]

Not so fast,
Mojo Jojo!

Ooh, I'm being oppressed!

Not so fast,
Powerpuff Girls!

[no audio]

[beeping]

Whoa! Even at night,
he's so full of energy.

GIRLS:
Not so fast, Mojo Jojo!

I'm being oppressed!

Not so fast,
Powerpuff Girls!

[no audio]

All I need now is
a computer powerful enough

to run the ultimate
Townsville destruction device.

Hey!

BUTTERCUP:
Now you've gone too far.

BUBBLES:
Our own house!

You're just
getting lazy.

Being oppressed!

Not so fast--

Yeah, yeah.
We got it.

That's it!

We're going to the Mayor.

Hurry back with
my computer, girls!

I need to check
my e-mail!

Mayor, Mojo's building
an ultimate Townsville

destruction device,

and these stupid--

Tut, tut.
I know all about it,

and something
must be done.

It's blocking my view.

So you girls skedaddle now
and take care of it.

Good-bye!

But Mayor, we can't.

Mojo is protected
by the law.

Well, who would pass
a stupid law like that?

I say we kick him
out of office.

Mayor, you passed it.

That's why
we're here.

We need you
to change it.

I can do that?

Well, then I am
gonna do something

about that silly
"shoplifting" law.

Ughhh!

Mayor, try to focus.
Read this.

"No one shall be
allowed to harass,

"mistreat or hurt an animal
raised by others

or any animal living
in the wild."

what does this have to do
with stealing pretty dresses?

Wait! What did you say?

Nothing. Nothing.

You said, "any animal
living in the wild."

That's it!
Come on, girls.

WOMAN:
Wow!

Isn't the addition
to his nest amazing?

Hey--

Not so fast--

Wait! We're not here
to cause trouble.

Just hear us out, ok?

Ok.

Yes! My day of greatness
has finally come,

and I, Mojo Jojo,
will finally rule Townsville,

and then the world!

All thanks
to those dirty hippies,

who I'm gonna smash first.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

[doorbell rings]

Hold. Who could be visiting
at a time like this?

Yes, yes. What is it?

Hi, Mojo. We have
some great news

that will make you
very happy.

You've made me
quite happy already.

Now, go away.

Hey! Who invited them?

I mean, ooh,
I'm being oppressed.

Not anymore. We're all
on the same side now.

That's right.
Huh?

We're all in agreement

that you should be
able to run wild.

So we're gonna
take you home.

I find your ramblings
to be nonsensical,

as I am already
in my home.

I would expect you
to understand that,

since you yourselves have entered
my place of residence

to have this
conversation with me,

Mojo Jojo,
in my own dwelling.

ALL:
Good-bye, Mojo!

Enjoy your freedom!

[thump]

Where am I?

[giggling]

This is even better than
leaving him in jail.

Hey! This is not
a proper home for Mojo Jojo.

[elephant trumpeting]

I feel so unnatural.

No, thank you.
I will not eat such filth.

I have standards,
you know.

Get away from me!

[squealing]

[footsteps thundering]

Save Mojo.

[roaring]

NARRATOR:
Uh, cute little nitpickers.

And so once again,
the day is saved,

thanks to
the Powerpuff Girls.

NARRATOR:
The city of Townsville,

where the children can't wait
to wake up for school.

[alarm clock beeping]

MAN ON RADIO:
Good morning,
Townsville kindergartners.

Are you ready for another
super day of scholarship?

Gimme a "K."
K!

Gimme an "E."
E!

Gimme an "A."
A!

"N."
N!

"E."
E!

- What's that spell?
- Keane!

What's that spell?

Keane!

I can't hear you.

- Keane!
- Keane!

Keane!

Keane!

Miss Keane's never late

RASPY VOICE:
I am afraid that I am the bearer
of some rather...

unfortunate news.

Miss Keane is unable to attend
to your instruction,

on account of the onset

of a very sudden
and unexpected "illness."

[gasp]

I am Mr. Green...

[thunderclap]

Your substitute teacher.

All right, class.
Now, let's get down to busin--

[coughing]

[hacking]

Mmm. Ugh.

NORMAL VOICE:
Sorry about that, kids.

Just getting over
a little cold, myself.

All right. Now, let's
get down to business.

If you pull out your nutrition
assignment from yesterday,

does anyone know what
the 4 major food groups are?

Uh, yes. You there.

A very sudden and
unexpected illness, ha!

This creature teacher has done
something with Miss Keane,

I just know it.

I think you're
right, Buttercup.

But what?
What has he done?

That's correct.

Milk and dairy is a very
important food group.

Maybe he ate her!

[screaming]

WOMAN:
This substitute
creature tricked me!

Now I'm one of his


MAN:
Yes, I, the evil
and despicable Mr. Green,

did trick you, Miss Keane.

Now you're going to
complete my balanced meal.

Aah!

[chomp]

Now, does anyone know
the last remaining food group?

How about teacher,
Dr. Lecter?

[muffled]

Right.

Ok, well, the last
food group is meats.

Now let's move on
to our next lesson.

BUTTERCUP:
Ugh...

Come on, let's flunk
this bad apple

and find Miss Keane.

But we can't, Buttercup.

Not while he's holding
all our classmates hostage.

I wonder what he's
planning to do next.

Oh, well, children,

I have a very special lesson
planned for you today.

Oh, no. He's reaching
for something.

[screeching]

Get him!

You 3?

You know, you're beginning
to get on my nerves, ladies.

Don't try my patience.

Back to your seats now.

Uh, you, with the bow.

You stay.

I have a task for you.

A task?
F-For me?

Uh, Blossom, is it?

Blossom, I have a secret
I want to tell you.

[gasp]
S-Secret?

Yes. A secret.

You see, I have
these cookies

that I want you to pass out
to the students.

Umm...But...

Come on, now.
Off you go.

One for everyone.
Shoo shoo!

You crazy kid.
Ha ha ha.

BUBBLES:
What... Is Blossom doing?

I think she's giving
something to Suzie Jenkins.

[gasp]

Poison!

Blossom, what
are you doing here?

Uh, I--I brought you
these, Suzie.

Mmm...Cookies.

And they're from
mean Mr. Green.

He baked them
especially for you.

[choking]

Aah!

[roaring]

Ha ha ha ha!

You evil creature!

You made me poison
my classmate!

That's right, Blossom.

And I won't stop until
all of your classmates

are poisoned.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

No, Suzie, no!

Come on, Bubbles.

Let's show this creep
how the cookie crumbles.

Yaah!

Huh!

Yaah!

Hi-ya!

Yah! Hi-ya!

Yah!

I think that's
all of them.

Oh, no!

Mmm...Chocolate chip.

[sigh]
That's it.

No recess for you.

RASPY VOICE:
Hey, Julie Bean!

Do you want me
to push you?

No! Stop pushing me,
Mr. Green!

Ha ha ha!

[gasp]
Aah!

RASPY VOICE:
Hey! Elmers Glue.

Why don't you let me
spin you?

No, Mr. Green,
I don't want to spin.

[roaring]

Aah!

[explosions and screaming]

Hey, Harry Pitt,

I hear you like
to play in the mud.

No, Mr. Green,
not the mud.

Powerpuff Girls, help!

[gurgling]

BLOSSOM:
That does it!

Let's kick some
substitute butt!

Hey, Green!

Huh?

Is someone
calling me?

That's right, Green!

I'm talking to you!

You've sat in
on your last class.

Cosmic cannonball!

Hello?

KIDA:
Powerpuff Girls, no!

Mr. Green is nice!

- Nice? - Nice?
- Nice?

But Julie Bean,

I heard you screaming.

Didn't Mr. Green
vault you into space?

Vault me into space?

He was nice enough to
push me on the swing.

And didn't he spin Elmer
into the earth?

And drown Harry
in a sea of mud?

He was nice enough
to spin me around.

And let me play
in the mud.

But he's a monster.

He's icky.

And green.

Oh, ha ha ha.
I get it.

Listen, girls.

Just because
I have big horns

and like to wear
long flowing capes,

doesn't make me
a bad guy.

Yes, I am a monster.
But I love children.

And I want to help
them learn and grow.

We're sorry,
Mr. Green.

I guess we shouldn't
judge someone

by what they look like.

Even if they're
as ugly as you.

That's right.

Besides, you girls aren't
what you appear to be.

For 3 sweet little girls,
you really can pack a punch.

NARRATOR:
Aw, Mr. Green.

You're the best
substitute creature ever!

[roar]

Don't you mean teacher?!

NARRATOR:
Uh, right, sorry.

Teacher.
Substitute teacher. Ha.

So, once again,
the day is saved,

thanks to the Powerpuff Girls!
