Salad fork, meat fork,

Dessert fork, bacon fork,

Auxiliary bacon fork, spatula.

I'm ready!

Bun appetite!

[Chewing loudly]

This is... Interesting.

What is it?

Peanut butter, jam, and hot sauce!

Aggghhh!

So whaddaya you think?

[Whimpering]

[Water sprays]

I couldn't hear you

From all the fire in your mouth.

Tastes burny.

[House creaks and clunks]

[Laughing]

Huh?

The food goes inside my mouth.

Do you hear me, spoon?

I'll find out what's going on?

Whoaoaoa-ohhh!

This spoon is giving me attitude,

That's what's going on!

Look, the problem's with the wheels on your trailer!

Dave: my house has wheels?

My house is a trailer?!

That gives me an idea.

Sweet acorns.

[Wheels squeak]

Scaredy: why are we doing this again?

It's going to be awesome.

Scaredy and dave: aaahhhh!

Awesome!

Scaredy: not awesome!

Not awesome!

Dave: [laughing]

Scaredy: aaagghhhh!

Dave: aahhhh!

[Splat]

Again! Again!

[Gasps]

A penny.

Do you think it's a lucky penny?

There's no such thing as luck.

I will call you susan

And you shall be my lucky penny!

Puh-lease!

Rabbit: I have all this ice cream,

But I don't know what to do with it!

Do you want it?

Dave: mmm! Tastes so lucky.

Agh! Brain freeze!

Lucky.

That was just a fluke.

Dave: [laughs giddily]

Scaredy: see? Just a regular, everyday... Aggghhh!

Doesn't prove anything.

Agh! Happens all the time.

Oh sweet mother of almonds!

Treasure's not so lucky.

Well, I still believe.

If this penny were lucky,

It would mean that I could turn this corner and find...

The rare canned food trading card

I've been searching for for years!

Creamed corn...

With vital stats, powers and abilities?!

Here, you can have it.

I like the cut of your jib.

Dave, before we found this penny,

I didn't even have a jib!

It is lucky!

Awww, I want a jib.

Good luck, here we come!

[Boom]

Hey, guys, look what we found.

Yeah... [Panting]

Look at it.

[Exhausted moan]

A prize in every millionth box?

Puh! No match for the penny!

[Slow beeping becomes faster]

[Knowing chuckle]

[Boxes clatter]

Dave: wow.

[Pinball machine dings]

Pinball machine: [harshly] you lose!

[Gasps and screams]

[Pinball machine dings]

[Noisemakers whistle and honk]

Wow!

[Frustrated groans]

Check out the awesome powers

Of this awesomely powerful penny...

Of awesomeness!

[Impressed murmurs]

[Penny clinks]

Blagh!

[Laughing]

Crowd: [cheering]

[Sighs]

Scaredy: what a lucky day.

Dave: yeah, it sure was.

Hey. I was wondering,

Maybe I could try the penny for a little bit.

You know, cause I did find it.

Oh, yeah.

Of course.

[Laughs giddily]

Huh.

Uh, scaredy?

Oh. Heh heh. Silly me.

Can I keep it

For just a little itty bitty bit longer?

But what about...? I've got my weekly games night with richard

And I need the luck.

I can't wear the hat of pain again.

Pleeeeeee....

Eeeeeeeaaaaasse?!

Well, as long as you give it back

Right after you-

[Door creaks]

Okay. Good plan.

Glad we talked.

[Boat engine rumbles, scaredy hums happily]

Heads.

Ha! Lucky.

Tails!

Tailtastic!

Feet!

Wow.

No!

[Squawk]

No, no-no-no! No!

No!

[Penny pings off objects and zips through air]

[Splash]

Ahhh! No!

Phew! That was lucky.

[Boats zip by]

Nooo!

Congratulations!

You've just won a trip to candy canyon.

It's my lucky day!

[Water splashes as boat speeds off]

Oh no! What am I gonna tell dave?

Maybe it's not a big deal.

Maybe the penny was never lucky to begin with.

[Gasps]

Oh, richard. Game night.

Right, I remember. [Nervous laughter]

[Intense music plays]

Scaredy: bah! Boot beats spider.

You win.

[Grunts, wheel's pegs click]

[Nervous whimper]

[Defeated sigh]

[Popping]

[Noisemakers whistle and honk]

[Phone rings]

Hello? [Thunk] ow!

Dave: hey, scaredy.

Did you win at "rock, paper, scissors, spider,

Whale, boot, kitten, hotdog"?

Oh... [Feigned laughter]

Yeah.

What about the wheel of winning?

Totally. Ha!

Penny worked wonders. So amazing.

Sounds fun.

I totally didn't lose it or anything,

I er, uh... Crackle, crackle.

You're breaking up. [Mimics static crackling]

Sorry, I'm going through a tunnel.

I'm losing you.

A tunnel?

I didn't know scaredy had a tunnel in his house.

Cool!

What am I gonna do?

I can't hold dave off forever!

I'll have to find another lucky penny

Before he finds out.

Ow!

I hate the hat of pain.

[Clicking sounds]

[Metal detector beeps]

Ah!

Ungh!

[Treasure clinks]

[Ship clunks, aliens chatter]

Penny for my thoughts?

Anybody?

Hit me.

Scaredy: the meaning of life is never... [Muffled by passing train]

...every other tuesday.

Wow, that's worth way more than a penny!

[Ding, ding, ding]

Scaredy: ♪ my heart is like a fragile penny ♪

♪ I'm so sad, look, my... [Searches for lyrics]

♪ Arm is bendy

Just stop singing already!

A lucky penny!

[Splash] agghhhh!

Unlucky and... Wet.

I know, I'll make a lucky penny.

I just need some tin foil, or a rock, or a-

Hey, scaredy.

Having fun?

Oh... [Laughs nervously]

Yeah! Tons of fun.

Tons of lucky, lucky fun.

[Train whooshes by]

[Gasps]

[Water splashes]

Uh...

Ahhh... Ah!

Refreshing!

Just what I wanted to happen.

Whoa!

Huh.

That was my banana!

[Scaredy screams, loud crash]

That coulda been worse.

Sure glad I have that penny.

Dave: yeah, about the penny.

I had a great idea for it.

Here, gimme.

But I've got so many other lucky things to do.

Dave: like what?

Like.... That!

Huh? Huh?

Lunch! That's it, a lucky lunch.

Need one. Me.

Yeah, but...

Aieeeeeee!

Wow! Free manicure. What luck! [Groans]

I haven't even played

A lucky game of hug that tree yet!

Hug that tree!

[Lightning crackles]

Hug that tree. Ouch!

Hug that- ouch! Hug this- yah!

[Worried gasp]

Scaredy: crushed cashews!

[Traffic zips by]

Dave: okay, okay, okay. Hand it over.

But look how lucky this display is!

[Cans rattle]

Ow!

[Flames crackle, corn pops]

Lucky popcorn?

I just wanted to play with the penny.

[Sighs heavily]

I guess I'll never get to be lucky.

Dave?

Dave?

[Sobs] I lost it!

I was a big, fat, penny hog,

But it gave me the sparkly eyes.

Sparkly.

You lost the penny?

I'm sorry. Can you ever forgive me?

Fish: [manic laughter]

What are you looking at, hmm?

Are you trying to steal my luck.

Well, you'll never get it.

It's inside me.

Inside!

Luck can make you weird.

Tell me about it.

Hey, look what I found.

You think it's a lucky cinder block!

Yeow! Yes I do.

Dave and scaredy: [laugh]

[Slurping]

[Satisfied sigh] perfection.

What do you think, buddy?

Couldn't agree more, scare.

This is your best display ever!

[Thwap]

Dave, stop wasting the neapolitan.

Nestor: what is going on here?!

A whole lotta fun!

Hmm...

Seems sturdy enough.

[Taps three times]

[Stunned grunt]

What is this?

Pre-sanitized beach sand?

It is clearly outside the designated display area.

But check this out.

[Beep]

[Dolphins chirp]

Scaredy: huh? Huh?!

Nope. Fun's not allowed.

Scaredy: what? Oh! Ah!

What're you doing?

[Blow-dryer hums]

I'll never forget you.

Monster!

[Blow-dryer hums, nestor titters]

Scaredy: [sighs sadly]

Nestor: you're walking too fast.

Too slow.

[Toilet flushes]

Too flushy.

Too... Squirrely.

But I'm a squirrel.

Not squirrely enough.

[Sighs] nestor's rules are so...

So... Ruley.

I should go talk to him.

[Classic flamenco music plays]

[Slap, slap, slap]

[Flamenco music plays]

[Knock at the door, nestor gasps]

[Clears throat]

Enter.

Scaredy: hi, nestor- nestor: ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!

You must raise your hand to speak.

Scaredy: I was thinking- nestor: left hand.

It's just that-

Nestor: I didn't say "nestor says."

Nestor says.

Don't ya think these rules

Get in the way of all the fun?

We could be going-

Fun? Fun leads to chaos

Which leads to mutiny

Which leads to the end of the world!

This store needs rules.

Take a look at this!

Ungh! "Learning to love loneliness?

Now with stickers"?

Nestor: oops.

[Inhales deeply and blows]

The rule book!

[Heavenly choir sings]

I'm sure even you don't follow every rule in there exactly.

Every single one.

Huh. "All management must carry an emergency false mustache

At all times."

Scaredy: wow!

"Employee's eyebrows must be exactly one inch thick."

What about this?

"Once a year the assistant deputy manager

Must spend a day with his... Mother."

[Gulps] I don't... Uh...

Do you find it wet in here?

Did you break a rule, nestor?

Well, no...

It's more complicated than that.

I mean, um...

Who would be in charge if I left?

"When the assistant deputy manager is away

The stacker will be in charge."

Sweet acorns, that's me.

Let me see that!

Scaredy: I can't wait to get started!

Nestor: mother.

Nestor: don't forget to mop the floor every 15 minutes.

Every can needs to be cleaned inside and out -

With a toothbrush!

That parade float sure likes to talk a lot.

This. Will. Be. Awesome!

[Chomps]

Bingo announcer: b-5. That's "b-five."

Watch your cards!

I can't remember the last time we had so much fun together.

Mother: I can remember.

It was seven years ago

And I've been letting my nails grow ever since.

Pedicure time.

Start snipping.

[Sighs] oh...

Scaredy: attention, everyone.

Today i, scaredy squirrel,

Have been put in charge of the stash n' hoard.

And I think if we all look deep inside ourselves,

We will truly find the butterfly of joy within us.

[Crickets chirps]

Sorry.

No rules!

[Cheering and laughter]

Everything will be fine. [Laughs nervously]

[Sander whirs and fizzles]

There.

Can I go check in with the store now?

The store's fine.

[Liquid sloshes and sputters]

Motehr: it's me time.

[Gleeful groan]

[Gasps]

With scaredy in charge,

Who know's what trouble they're in.

Scaredy: stash n' hoard now with 75% percent more fun,

Scaredy speak- whoa! [Elephant trumpets]

[Bell dings]

What in sour milk's going on over there?!

Scaredy: oh hi, nestor.

[Huge expl*si*n]

That's not what rules sound like!

Are you following the book?

[Chomps]

[Flames crackle]

Uh... Gotta go. Bye.

It's a disaster!

They need me!

[Horse whinnies]

Save us, nestor!

Octavior, now!

Ruuules!

Elderly man: bingo!

Fear not. Nestor's on his way.

[Horns honk]

[expl*si*n, employees scream]

Wendy: help! Help! Help!

Time to shine.

[Whistling sounds]

Hmm?

[Explosions, fireworks whistle]

[Cheering and screaming]

Wendy: help! Help!

Help me from all this fun I'm having!

This can't be happening!

More fun! No rules!

More creativity! No rules!

Find your inner butterfly.

[Cheering halts abruptly]

No rules!

[Loud cheering]

[Deflating like a balloon] waaaah!

What in bruised fruit are you two doing?

Look how much fun everyone's having.

[Splash]

[Splat]

Aloha.

Take that, ruley mcrule-a-lot.

[Bawks] but the store needs rules.

Without rules you can't make any money!

Harold: here's the money we made in the last 15 minutes.

Thanks, harold.

[Money bay rattles]

Nestor: whaaa?!

Isn't it great?

Lots of money?

Happy customers?

[Gong sounds]

Buck: melon pinata!

Scaredy and dave: woo hoo! Yeah!

[Cheering and whooping]

Nestor: huh?

[Sighs]

I guess the store doesn't need the rules,

Or me anymore.

[Sighs sadly]

[Bottle clinks]

Go!

[Wheels squeak]

[Conveyor belt whirs]

[Bottles clank]

I win!

This fun will never stop.

[Soda sloshes]

[Soda splashes]

Who, pray tell, is in charge around here?

That's me! Having fun?

No. I am from head office.

Our rules state all these forms must be signed.

Now!

Rules?

Indeed.

Or we shut down the store.

And where do I sign?

♪ Nothing more fun than writing my name over ♪

♪ And over, and over, and over... ♪

[Thump]

Here. I'm done.

[Machine whirs]

But why? I just...

Rabbit: company rules.

Scaredy! Sacredy! We're out of fruit

And the citrus softball league

Will have to end their season early.

Team: [groaning]

Think of the children!

We'll just have to order more fruit.

Great idea!

Uh... How?

Mm, I don't know. Nestor always does it.

[Shrill scream nearby]

[Screaming]

They're gonna crash!

No rules!

[Riders scream, huge crash]

Uh, I think you should take a look at this.

Scaredy: are they waiting for the conga line to start?

Apparently they want something called a "pay cheque."

Ooh...

Um, hi.

If you guys wanna get paid,

You can take...

[Scream and cheer]

[Groans]

Things haven't turned out so hot.

At least it's closing time...

Maybe.

Okay, everyone, we've had a lot of fun today,

But it's time to go on home.

The store's closed.

No rules!

Crowd: yeah! That's right! What about my butterfly?

[Growling angrily]

Scaredy and dave: ahhh!

I don't think these guys like rules.

There's only one person who can solve this.

To the nestor signal!

Dave: ka-kaw!

Huh, nestor always said this would come in handy.

Ka-kaw! Ka-kaw!

Ka-kaw! Ka-kaw!

Nestor: [gasps]

The time has come.

Can I get a hand, walter?

[Boom]

Scaredy: okay, uh...

You know what would be fun?

Everybody going home.

Wendy: spaghetti fight!

It's all fun and games until someone chucks pasta.

Come on, people.

[Cacophony of chatter]

All right, I'm back in charge here

And you will follow the rules.

Crowd: [disgruntled chatter] no rules! No way!

You can't take my butterfly!

There's no such thing as butterflies!

What?

Clean that up!

Put that back!

Get a haircut, you hippie!

Groovy, man.

Crowd: [upset murmurs]

Ha! You're lucky someone called me.

Who knows what would've happened if I didn't show up?

[Slurp]

[Titters] well, at least you got to spend some time

With your mom.

[Gasps]

Nestor?
