Scaredy: what a beautiful day for a trip to the plant park.

Have fun, richard!

[Crackles]

Hmm. A little high. Better put on more sunscreen.

[Splat]

Hey! Look!

Richard's made a new friend!

Dave: really? I don't think they even like each other.

Scaredy: that's silly! How can you-

I'm afraid your stinkolente companion is right.

Your plant is being very, very aggressive.

What? He's not aggressive, he's just-

Hugging. He's just hugging.

That's a hug.

Mario: I am mario,

Owner of the green plant academy.

The finest plant obedience school

In all of balsa.

[Laughs] this is my associate, pompom.

I'm pompom. Who are you?

Uh, I'm scaredy squirrel,

Head stacker of the stash "n" hoard.

Dave. Imaginary fireman, first battalion.

This is a four of clubs.

And don't you forget it.

You don't really think richard's being too aggressive,

Do you? Do you?!

I've seen it too many times...

Everyday plants with these tendencies...

Turn to a life of crime.

Which leads to jail!

Which inevitably leads to tattoos!

But tattoos are permanent!

Dun-dun-duuuuuuuun!

For everyone's safety,

I insist richard come to the academy immediatamente!

Are you sure?

Or we could simply get the tattoo over with now.

[Tattoo g*n whirs]

You're right, you're right. He should go.

Mario: [claps] pompom?

Pompom: ahhhh...

Pompom!

I'm pompom.

Well, richard, this is for the best...

I'll come visit real soon.

[Wailing]

I'm gonna miss... Huh?

Noooo!

Don't worry, scare, school is great!

It's sweet and crunchy

And it goes clickety-clickety pop-pop

When you pour milk on it.

Dave, I think you're talking about cereal.

Oh, riiiiiight.

School is a horrible, horrible place.

Scaredy: I hope richard's all right at the green plant academy.

Weird old goat: green plant academy you say...

Did a chunky rabbit take your plant?

Yes, sir.

He's going to save richard from a life of trouble.

He took my rose bush, gertie,

But when I went to visit,

They said she didn't want to see me!

Now they won't return my calls!

[Bleats]

Uh... O-okay...

Maybe I should check on richard,

Just to be safe.

Oh, scaredy,

Everyone knows that goats don't know anything

About obedience schools or recording rap albums!

[Raps] ♪ don't say it don't spray it, ♪

♪ Not how I play it

♪ Cuz I'm dave!

♪ Duh-da-duh-da- dahdahdah-dave! ♪

♪ What's my name?

Did you get all that?

Oooh, uhh, hmmm... [Slurps] yes?

We need to make sure richard's okay!

♪ My name is dave!

♪ Duh-da-duh-da-dahdahdah- dave! ♪

[Thunder strikes]

Wow. It's not even raining.

Why would an obedience school need all this security?

What?! Oh, hi!

Scaredy squirrel, concerned plant parent.

No visitors today.

I'm pompom.

I'd just like to check on richard, please.

I didn't want to have to say this,

But richard doesn't want to see you.

Sorry.

That doesn't sound like richard.

I need to make sure he's okay!

We just need to scale the fence.

Let's do this!

[Grunts of effort]

[Panting mercilessly]

Too... High.

Too high!

Scaredy: [sigh] what now?

A ladder truck!

That's certainly convenient!

I'm on it!

[Splash] heyyyyy!

Huh?

[Loud crash]

That. Went. Perfectly!

High-five!

What's with all the bars?

How bad can these plants be?

A storeroom of new pots.

Nothing sinister about that.

Dave: the horror, the horror!

What is it?

Dave: those vegetables are so... Vegetably.

Good to see that they're getting nutritious meals.

Maybe the goat was wrong.

Dave: ooh! Ooh! Let me guess!

I bet it's a swimming pool full of chocolate!

No, a ferris wheel full of chocolate!

No, a swimming pool full of chocolate ferris wheels!

Ahhhh!

What is this?

Mario: pompom!

Why is the gladiator ring still a disasterio?!

Whaaaaaa.

I never should've hired a goldfish!

They remember nothing!

After careful consideration,

I've decided to go with pompom.

[Cries] I will never forget this. Never!

Congratulations!

Are you my mother?

Okay, pompom.

We'll go through the evil plan one more time.

Evil narrator: in this edition of evil made simple:

How to make the perfect salad!

There's nothing wrong with a good salad, I guess.

Evil narrator: a perfect evil salad.

[Cackles]

Evil narrator: you need to find the fastest, meanest,

And strongest houseplant in the world...

And eat him!

Nooooo!

No!

The obedience school is just a ploy

So I can eat the world's strongest houseplant.

Boo! That was the shortest movie ever

And it was about vegetables!

Dave! Did you hear that?!

Hey! That popcorn cost $4.75!

He's planning to eat house plants!

House plants!

What kind of monster is he?!

Rabbit, I think.

There's only one way to solve this!

Sewing!

♪♪♪

I am scaredy sunflower!

[Yelping]

Are you... A cactus?

My costume is ouchy!

Dave, I think the needles

Are supposed to go on the outside.

Ahhh! I'm pretty sure I know how a... Ahhhhh!

Cactus works, scaredy. Ahhhh!

We just gotta get in there, find richard.

Then we'll make a run for it, okay?

Oh- ahhhh! 'Kay.

What! [Gasps]

Well, what have we here?!

Ahhh!

[Gasps] pompom, look!

Pompom: ahhhhh!

An inverted yelping cactus... [Evil laugh]

Two more plants for the gladiator ring, pompom!

[Evil laughter]

Am I pompom?

Yesssss.

[Gasps] dave, he's making all the plants wrestle

To find out who's the strongest!

Dave: all right!

Just call me el taco-cacti diablo.

[Wrestling sounds]

Dave! Shhh!

Pompom: waaaaait a minute,

Plants cannot talk!

[Gasps] you're not plants!

Mario, come quick!

What is it?

Uh... What is what?

Mario: this is it!

The champion will be decided with plant on plant wrestling!

There's only one rule:

Last plant standing wins!

[Evil laughter]

[Ding]

[Whispering] richard, be careful.

[Loud thud]

Winner!

I guess we have to fight our way to richard.

Uh, I don't wanna hurt you.

[Whispers] I'm really sorry!

I don't wanna hurt you so... Ahhhhh!

Richard!

[Blows]

[Evil laughter]

[Evil laughter]

Winner. Winner!

Winner! Winner!

[Pained grunts] oh, ow! Ow!

You got your costume on wrong.

The prickly parts go on the inside.

Only remaining competitorinos!

[Laughs]

Last plant standing is the dinner!

Did I just say dinner? Ha-ha!

I meant win. Winner. Obviously.

Time to get out of here.

[Pained] ahhh.

Richard, it's me! We're here to bust you out!

[Gasps]

Dave! Free the other plants.

Huh. I really thought they'd do something...

Pompom! Stop them.

No! Richard!

It's time to dine! [Laughs]

You were about to let us go and help save these plants?

I was?

Whew! I thought he was about to beat us up!

I was.

Pompom feel pain.

Nooo! Richard!

Hold on, buddy!

Scaredy? Scare? Scaredy!

Aaahhhh!

Ahhhhhh....

[Both] phew!

Let him go! He's not food!

He's a houseplant!

Mario: isn't it just decadent!

Now nothing can stand between me

And the world's greatest salado! [Laughs]

No! Nooo! Richard!

Mario: agh! Stay back!

No crudite is worth this!

[Cries] I'm grabbing a burger!

Wow! Richard, that was awesome!

But also very violent

And you should never ever do it again.

Uh, you were just about to free all those plants.

Who are you? I'm pompom.

Scaredy: well, I'm glad that's over.

[Stomach growls] oh! Lunchtime!

Salad!

Dave, I don't think that's very appropriate-

Don't worry, scare... It's egg salad!

Oh, well, I guess that's fine.

Chicken: you monster!

Monster!

Scaredy: you know what? Let's just skip lunch.

Dave: ahhhhhhh!!!

♪♪♪

One best friend on a fire truck?

Check!

Dave: the seat is already taking the shape of my butt!

Aisles cleaned and polished? Check.

Premium customer service? Check!

[Beep, belch]

Perfectly stacked cans? Check.

Arrive to work early to check this checklist?

Chee-eck.

[Sighs] another perfect day at the stash "n" hoard.

I can't imagine anything that could possibly go-

[Electricity fizzles]

Power failure!

Agggghhhhhhhh!

What? I panicked.

What have you done, scaredy?!

I didn't do any-

Bertha stopped mid-ride.

Did I ride her too much?

Or not enough?

Someone needs to go to the basement

And check the breakers.

And by someone I mean not me.

D-d-downstairs?

That is where we keep the basement.

[Winces]

Good call on bringing all these emergency supplies.

[Thud] this is- what was that?

I-i-i don't know!

[Screaming]

It got me.

Aghhh!

We did it!

Do I have something in my teeth?

"The balsa city weather almanac."

[Spring pings]

A book about a weather maniac?

That sounds... Awesome!

Weather almanac.

A long time ago, people wrote books

That tried to predict the weather of the future.

[Spring pings]

Would you stop that?

Come on, scaredy,

What does almond zack say about today's weather?

Alman-ac.

And this thing was written like a hundred years ago;

There's no way it can accurately predict the weather.

See? This is ridiculous.

It says rain, then sunshine.

Then rain again.

Followed by a small twister moving from east to west.

Sorry, west to east.

A lightning storm with no thunder,

Massive snowfall,

Then back to warm and sunny.

Pfft!

Just a normal beautiful day out there.

All that weather happened

While I wasn't looking, didn't it?

"And then the giant hail shall come for .7 seconds."

[Hail clatters]

The book's predictions are...

Real!

I got my spring back!

Dave, we've gotta tell everyone about this!

Imagine how amazing the world will be

When everyone is perfectly prepared for the weather!

Isn't that what the weather man is for?

Trying to have a moment here, dave.

Do you have an umbrella, nestor?

The almanac predicts isolated showers.

Learning from a book? That's ridiculous!

Besides, the sky's totally-

Aggghhhh!

Make that extremely isolated showers.

Winter hats for everyone!

What? It's so hot.

You're crazy.

And mess up this hair?!

It is predicted.

In the almost snack!

Al-man-ac.

[Wind gusts]

I warned you.

Oooh...

[Wind gusts] whooahh!

Kids: yay!

Oh.

[Cheering]

[Foghorn bellows]

[Lightning strikes]

[Flashlight buzzes]

[Cheering]

All: over here! Give me!

[Angry grunt]

Mildred: the book is a miracle.

We love you, scaredy. [Belches]

Gord: I don't love you,

But I appreciate knowing when to hang up my laundry to dry.

No problem!

I don't even take baths anymore.

I just wait for rain.

But, dave, it hasn't rained in eight days.

I know!

Hatton: you've changed our lives!

Buck: we love accurately predicted weather!

[Chatter]

You're welcome!

You're welcome!

[Rooster crows]

Dave: I wonder what the amazon tack

Is going to predict today.

Alman- you know,

You're not ever trying to say it right.

Let's see what she says.

"Today, balsa will see the craziest, most insane-"

There's a page missing.

Balsa will see the craziest, most insane...

There's a page missing?

That's not english. It's barely french.

No, dave,

The next page of the almanac, it's missing.

It's gotta be the worst thing ever!

That's why they ripped it out of the book!

Aghhhhh!

[Hyperventilating]

[Bag pops] aghhh! Okay!

Okay. Let's not panic.

It could mean a lot of things.

The craziest, most insane...

Anything.

We shouldn't tell anyone about this.

They'd just panic and you know what, dave?

Dave?

Dave: [over loud speaker] attention!

The elm attack says

Today's weather will be the craziest

And most insane something that balsa has ever seen.

I got this.

Also, please keep this to yourself,

Otherwise, you'll get scared.

Everything's fine-

[Panicked screaming]

There's a storm coming!

Food! Get as much food as you can!

Nestor: we need to board up the windows!

How long will the storm last?!

Did it say?! Board up the windows!

Scaredy: citizens of balsa, stop!

Wow! I can't believe that worked.

There's no reason to panic.

The book didn't say anything about a storm.

Customers: yes it did! Yeah!

The blue guy said so!

The book just predicted something crazy

And insane was going to happen.

We shouldn't jump to conclusions!

I don't care what you say,

I'm jumping to conclusions!

It could be a tidal wave of sharks!

Or a hurricane of hockey skates!

It might hail rabid monkeys!

Rude.

It's the perfect storm!

Wait, wait, everyone! Ahh!

Dave: scaredy?

Scaredy!

Hey there, welcome back.

Wha-what happened?

The almanac?!

Don't worry, scare, it was all just a dream.

Customer: the storm is coming! Panic!

I thought you said it was all a dream.

I was talking about me flying downtown

In my underwear.

The panic thing is totally real.

There's no way to calm them down

Without knowing what was written on that missing page.

[Gasps] we need to find the author of the book!

It's pronounced al-man-ac! Sheesh!

We'll call the publishing company,

They'll tell us who wrote it.

Then we'll go to the balsa archives

To get the author's last known address.

Hey! The author's name and address are right here.

That'll work too.

[Wind gusts]

[Panting]

Almost there, dave.

Bus driver: final stop for the guru mountain express.

Watch your step. Have a nice day.

He-he-he.

I guess we shoulda checked the bus schedule.

[Snores]

Hello? Doctor von doppler?

I'll have three boxes of the mint shortbread.

[Snores]

Uh, sir?

Stop bothering me!

Holly chimney,

You are the ugliest lady bug scouts

I've ever seen.

Yeoooow!

We're not selling cookies.

We're here to ask you about the almanac you wrote.

[Snores]

Oh, come on!

Allow me.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

We have to know what was written on the missing page

Of your almanac.

Almanac? I wrote one of those once.

Yes, yes. What was on the missing page?

Fishing cage?

Missing! Page! Missing page?

Missing page of what?

The almanac!

I wrote one of those once. [Snores]

It's no use.

Come on, dave. Let's head back to the store.

Doppler: squirrel!

Today balsa will see the craziest, most insane...

Storm!

Wait! Wha-wh-what?!

Storm!

The perfect storm of... [Snores]

[Screaming]

Scaredy: wha- what's going on?!

You were right, scaredy.

Why jump to conclusions? [Belches]

What did the author say?

He said-

Panic! It's the perfect storm!

Hatton: run for your lives!

Deja vu!

We need food!

[Crying]

[Hammering]

Oh no, buck is outside

Mopping up the parking lot!

Buuuuck!

[Whirring]

Hatton: [banging] we're locked outside!

I already put this board here.

So... Yeah.

Hatton: agggghhhhh!

Buck: you gotta do something!

[Turns music up] there. I did something.

Calming music. Nice touch, nestor.

Whatever I can do.

Okay, the important thing is that everyone is safe

And out of the storm.

Dave: how long have we been locked up?

I'm starving!

[Sniffs]

You smell like chicken soup!

Well, I managed to save one can.

My soup! I'm the manager!

[Fighting grunts]

Must get nourishment!

[Heavenly choir sings, birds chirp]

Nestor: well, what do you see?

Dave: is it horrible?

Scaredy: i... Don't understand.

[Heavenly choir sings]

What happened?

Hatton! Buck!

You were outside and you're alive?

Hatton: so alive!

Buck: never been more alive-ier.

How? What happened?

Hatton: well, that almanac was right.

It was the craziest, most insane storm.

A perfect storm of...

Hatton and buck: rainbows!

All: what?!

The wind was rainbow coloured,

And then the clouds turned to rainbows.

Then it rained rainbows!

Every time we opened our mouths to say "wow,"

A mouthful rainbows came out.

Buck: it changed my life.

Hatton: a once in a millennium type event.

Buck: yeah. Glad we weren't stuck inside the store.

Hatton: no doubt about it.

Scaredy: he-he-he. At least we were prepared.

Nestor: are you prepared for this?

[Charging] waaaaaaaaa!

All: we missed rainbows!

Curse you, scaredy squirrel!

That'll teach us to trust books.

Hey, scare,

Wanna know what the weather's gonna be like next?

No way. No more almanac.

If you say so.

All: oof! Wha??!!
