01x10 - Freddy Fights for His Right to Party

[bunniefuu]

[rock music]

It’s literally the best party
in the history of mankind.

The lacrosse team
only throws it once a year,

because you need a whole year
to recover.

And I hear there’s going
to be an eight-layer dip.

Eight layers.

I don’t even know what you’d use
for an eighth layer.

It defies the laws of layers.

And this year, they’re going
to have a movie screen

that floats in the pool.

I mean, I don’t have words.

Dude, you’ve actually got
a lot of words.

Like, so many.

But it sounds awesome.
Can I go with you?

Oh, I’m not invited.

The lacrosse guys
are upperclassmen.

People our age
don’t get to go.

None of us are cool enough
to score an invite.

Sorry. Hang on a sec.

I got to pose for the yearbook.

- Best what?
- Just best.

You!
You can get us invited.

You’re my cool-haired
golden ticket

to the greatest day of my life.

Dude, there’s way more to me
than just my hair.

I’ve also got eyes
you can get lost in.

[sighs]

How about I just go talk
to those lacrosse dudes?

What? You can’t just walk
over to them.

You need a plan.

Give me a break, man.
It’s only a party.

I’ll just ask for an invitation.

Ask for an invitation?

Just like that?
Yeah.

While you’re at it, why don’t
you ask for a million dollars

or Rihanna’s phone number?

Relax, man. I got this.

- No, you don’t.
- Hey, dudes.

Do you think
they know it was us?

♪ Stop tellin’ me
to read between the lines ♪

♪ It all adds up
to one thing ♪

Five, four, three,
two, one.

♪ If you think you’re gonna
lose your cool ♪

♪ Well, sometimes you gotta
break the rules ♪

♪ Hey, show me what you know,
give it up to rock ’n’ roll ♪

♪ ’Cause we ain’t
gonna stop ♪

♪ If you’re feeling like
you’re gettin’ schooled ♪

♪ There’s an answer
right in front of you ♪

♪ Hey, show me what you know,
give it up to rock ’n’ roll ♪

♪ ’Cause we ain’t
gonna stop ♪

- ♪ Hey! ♪
- ♪ Are you ready to rock? ♪

[rock music]

- There’s got to be a way.
- I don’t see how.

We’re never gonna get an invite
to that party now.

Who cares
about some older kids’ party?

both: We do.

It’s weird when you guys
talk at the same time.

You guys
talk at the same time, too.

both: No, we don’t.
Okay.

We do, but it’s cute
when we do it.

Mm, it’s not that cute.

We’re going
to that party, bro.

Like Mr. Finn always says,
never give up.

I give up.

What’s going on, Mr. Finn?

Well, the school
bought all the teachers

these fancy new chairs.

It’s got
so many thingamajigs,

I don’t know
what any of ’em do.

Oh!

That one makes it recline,

so this is probably
the height adjust.

Oh!

Nope. It’s unrecline.

That’s weird.

On most chairs,
that would be this lever.

[grunts]

Is there a button on the chair
to call the nurse?

Don’t worry, dude.

I’ve got the perfect plan to
get us an invite to the party.

You just have to show those guys
how well you play lacrosse.

That is a perfect plan,
except I can’t play lacrosse.

[rock music]

Why do you have
to meet other people?

Aren’t I enough?

But I thought
we had something special.

Forget it.

Oh, I can’t stay mad at you.

Fighting with your picture
of Freddy again?

Well, we made up.

Of course you did.

It’s a super healthy
relationship

you have with that picture.

I can’t let Freddy
go to that party.

Until now,
he’s been my secret hottie.

All those older girls
are going to be all over him.

I’m gonna lose him, Tomeeks.

You don’t have him.

That’s even worse.

I’m gonna lose him
before I have him.

Life was so much simpler
when we thought boys were gross.

Check it out, everybody.

Freddy ate an entire
tuna fish sandwich in one bite.

He’s so cute.

It came out his nose!

Yeah, those older girls

are never going
to be able to resist him.

I know.

[rock music]

It’s gonna take some work
to make you great at lacrosse.

Let me see
how you hold the stick.

Now say,
"I know how to play lacrosse."

I know how to play lacrosse.

I buy it.

Now this is a chair.

A simple, wooden,
four-legged chair

that won’t give me
any problems.

Perfect.

But I think the room is tilted.

Ooh, lacrosse!

Let me have a go.

Mr. Finn, we’re kind of busy.

Our social status depends
on Freddy’s lacrosse skills.

Come on.
Oh, man.

I could have been, like,
a regular lacrosse star.

Later, dudes!

both: Later!

[rock music]

Okay.
Here it goes.

Our chance for glory.

Don’t worry.
I got this.

Yeah, you do.

And this weekend, we’re gonna
be doing our party dance.

both: Oh!
Bring it around town.

Oh.
Oh, Oh, oh!

Yeah.

There’s no way
Freddy’s learned

how to play lacrosse
since yesterday, right?

Totally, no way.

He’s gonna get invited
to that party.

- Sweet moves, dude.
- It’s happening.

This is exactly
what I was worried about.

Okay. I got this.
I’m gonna do this.

- I need you to push me.
- What?

- Push me.
- I can’t.

You’re my best friend.

Aww, Tomeeks, that’s so nice.

Ow. Dude,
quit throwing things at me.

[rock music]

Mr. Finn, it’s a little hard
to concentrate on our math

when you’re failing
at woodshop.

You want a math problem?

If a chair has a leg
that’s 2 inches too short

and you measure wrong and cut


how long should you cry
before you feel better?

Well, if it’s anything
like seeing some cougar swoop in

and steal your man,
I’d say about four hours.

We’re gonna get through this,
sister.

I’m just gonna
make all the legs even.

What are we going to do?

You still haven’t gotten us
an invitation to that party.

I know.

Everything keeps going wrong.

I’m sorry I bumped into you,
Freddy.

I tripped over a crazy person.

It’s okay,
but the party’s this weekend,

and we might not get to go.

Good! I mean darn.

But you’ll always have us.

Do you need a hug?

[clears throat]

Perhaps you need a brilliant
mastermind to help you.

What?

[panting]

It’s me.
I’m the brilliant mastermind.

What?

I know exactly what makes
this place tick socially.

Since when?

I’ve been watching
from the outside every day

since kindergarten.

This school’s like
a video game,

and I’m really good
at video games.

Let me guide you.

You’re player one,
and I know all the cheat codes.

Well, it’s worth a shot.

Sounds like a great plan,
guys.

Chair’s fixed.

[rock music]

The key to becoming popular

is you don’t start
with the popular kids.

They’re too hard to get to.

You need a way to sneak in,
a back door.

In your case, that back door
is going to be George McReedy.

George isn’t popular
because he eats his boogs.

But he lives across the street
from Max Peterson,

who is popular
because he doesn’t.

You get in with George,
you’re in with Max.

And George loves tater tots.

Max’s best friend
is Henry Wayne,

and Henry Wayne thinks
he looks like Kevin Durant.

Hey, this is weird,

but is Kevin Durant
your uncle or something?

- You get Max and Henry
on your side,

and they’re going
to talk about you

in front
of Henry’s older sister, Maddy.

Now, Maddy’s gaga
for Lady Gaga.

[chuckles]
Sorry. Little joke.

Anyway, Maddy--
[chuckles]

Whoo, really got myself
with that one.

So my mom’s friend Gigi
came over.

She’s the one who’s
Lady Gaga’s Pilates instructor.

- Now, Maddy’s heard
your name twice,

and she’s going
to start talking about you.

High school boys
are like bees.

They do what the queens,
high school girls,

tell them to.

If you follow my plan,

you’re going to get more
and more popular each day...

I’m gonna have to use
both my bumpin’ hands.

Until, finally--

Hey, Freddy.

Come here.

Bingo.
You’re in.

We did it.
I’m so proud of us.

Dude, are you okay?

I’m so excited,
I can’t even fist bump.

The guys and I
have been talking,

and we decided you’re cool.

You say that like
there’s a chart of coolness.

How does he know
about the chart?

We’re throwing a pretty epic
party this weekend.

Want to come?
- Seriously? Awesome.

My buddy’s gonna be so psyched.

He’s been wanting
to go to it for years.

- Your buddy?
- Yeah, my friend Zack.

He’s right over there.
- Hi, Trey.

This is
my imaginary lacrosse stick.

Yeah. That guy’s not invited.
Only you.

We’re gonna be best friends,
Trey.

Yeah.
Definitely not him.

[rock music]

You did it.

We’re going to the most awesome
party in the history of ever.

What can I say?

My system works.

Cool backpack.

By the end of tomorrow,
it’ll be mine.

I have work to do.

Listen, Zack--

So,
for the pool party situation,

I was thinking
we both need spray tans.

About the party...

I should have
never doubted you.

You’re the best friend
I’ve ever had or ever will have.

What are we gonna do now,
buddy?

Oh, come on.

[rock music]

You’re like an adorable
little porcupine.

Cut it out.

Get your hands off his hair!

I’m gonna take her down.

Easy, champ.
You’re a bleeder.

[sighs]

I know what to do.

Throw a party on the same night
as the lacrosse team

and make it better
and more epic,

and Freddy will come back to me,
and don’t tell me

this isn’t going to work because
I really need this to work.

And remember,
I know when you’re lying.

This is going to work.
[chuckles]

[sighs]
Thanks, Tomeeks.

I really needed
to hear the truth.

[rock music]

Mr. Finn?

Yes, Summer?

If we could take a break
from science for just a moment,

I have an announcement.

Just as long
as I don’t have to get up.

I might be a little stuck.

I’m having an epic party
this Saturday.

Freddy,
here’s your invitation.

Of course, I’m hoping the rest
of you can make it, too.

Sorry, Sum.

Me and my boy Freddy
can’t make it,

because we’ve been invited
to the most awesome party

in history.

Huh. Yeah.

Dude, that was weak.

We’re gonna have to work
on that before the party.

[rock music]

Yo, F-Money.
Where are you going?

I’m just gonna go
sit with my friends.

Why would you sit on a bench

when you can relax
in a lounge chair?

Those do look comfortable.

A little taste of what our big
party’s gonna be like, bro.

Tastes good.

Hey, are you sure
my man Zack can’t come?

He’s a really cool guy.

[alien voice]
Take me to your leader.

Take me to your leader.

I’m sure.

Buddy,
you’re the only underclassman

cool enough to be invited.

Look at that girl
flirting with Freddy

and acting like
he’s adorable.

I mean, he is,
but be cool about it.

[gasps]
Oh, my gosh, he’s coming over.

Everybody look pretty.

- Hey, guys.
- Freddy!

I mean, hey, Freddy,
what’s up?

Did you want to come sit
with us?

Because we can make room.

Whoa!

What’s the matter with you,
woman?

I just came over for this.

I’m sitting over there with Trey
and the lacrosse guys.

They have lounge chairs.

Sweet!

Should I join,
get my lounge on?

Listen, about the party,
I’m sorry, man.

I really tried,
but they say you can’t come.

Just me.

Ah.
That’s a bummer.

How’d they take it when you said
you couldn’t go without me?

What?
I mean, I’m still going.

What?
You can’t!

It was my idea to go
to the party in the first place.

I’m sorry, Zack.
I really did try to get you in.

No, you didn’t.

You want this party
all to yourself.

Are you calling me a liar?

What would you call a guy
that betrayed his best friend?

I didn’t betray you.

It’s not my fault
they don’t want you to come.

You’re not gonna
make me feel bad about this.

Yeah? How do you
feel about this?

both: No!

That’s it.

You can call me a liar,

but do not mess
with the hair.

[scoffs]
Fine.

Go back
to your dumb new friends.

I’ll just go
to Summer’s terrible party!

Can I bring anything?

[rock music]

♪ ♪

Dude, what’s the rush?

This is a rock ballad.

That means slow.

Thank you, Austin!

Sorry, guys. I got to go.

You’re skipping rehearsal?

Trey’s dad
works at a video game company,

so we get to play an advance
copy of "Zombie Flood."

The one where you play
as the zombie?

In a flood?
Of other zombies?

- Are there going to be donuts?
- Yeah.

both: Can I come?
- Sorry, guys.

Also, I can’t play mini-golf
with y’all next weekend.

What are you doing?

I’m playing mini-golf...

with the lacrosse dudes.

Whoa, Freddy.

Sounds like you’re really
blowing everybody off.

These people you’re letting down
are all your friends.

Not all of them.

Why are you staring at me?

Because you’re standing
in front of Zack.

Oh, phew.

[scoffs]

We’ll never see him again.

Mr. Finn, you’ve got to get
Freddy to go to my party

for the good of the band.

Oh, and tell him
to wear that cute blue shirt.

Also for the good
of the band.

Summer, sometimes
you need to set someone free

to get them
to come back to you.

Wait,
so he’s coming back to me?

No, this isn’t
one of those sometimes.

[sighs]
How can this happen?

Freddy’s living my life.

I should be the one blowing
you all off to go to that party.

Zack’s right.

A bit rude,
but this was his dream.

And we owe it to Zack to get him
to that lacrosse party.

I mean, look at him.

It’s all he has to live for.

It’s true.

But we can’t go.
We’re not invited.

Pfft.
You don’t need an invitation.

I’ve never been to a party
I was invited to.

Sneaking in
is the funnest part.

Oh, unless there’s
a petting zoo.

[rock music]

- F-Money.
- It’s time to party!

Oh, oh,
bring it around town!

What are you doing?

Uh, just something
I used to do with a friend.

Yeah.
We don’t do that here.

[chuckles]

[rock music]

I knew it.

Security’s tight,

and Trey’s probably looking out
for me.

I’ll never get in.

Remember what Mr. Finn said.

"Stop following me, Lawrence"?

[sighs]
No.

He said all we need is one of us
to get inside,

then find a window
to sneak Zack in.

We just need a decoy.

Or a bunch of tall decoys.

What’s up, dudes?

Welcome to the party.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Hold up.

Hey, I’m Bob
from the lacrosse team.

Let’s get our party on, bro.

[grunts]

Okay.

Those guys are good.

We don’t have to sneak in.

If we want to get inside,
we just have to be cool.

[doorbell rings]

[gasps]
I think I see Freddy! Freddy!

Freddy! Hi, Freddy!
Freddy!

Hi, Freddy!

She doesn’t seem
very cool.

[screams]

This stinks.

It’s no big deal.

I’m sure
this party’s all hype anyway.

Yeah.

An alpaca?

Get us in there, woman.

Okay, guys.
As soon as I get over the fence,

I’ll open up the gate
and let you in.

This is gonna be awesome.

That was awesome.

Guys, this gate
was unlocked the whole time.

[party horns blowing
and clatter]

- Oh!
- Ah!

This is cashmere!

Whoa!

[grunts]

I-I got this.

Best six seconds of my life.

It was even better
than I thought it would be.

I wish it didn’t end.

I think I won
a limbo contest.

Thanks for trying, guys,
but it’s not gonna happen.

It’s okay.

We can all say
we were at the party,

and no one can ever take
those memories away from us.

- What?
- What?

[stammering]

I hate those guys.

[rock music]

Guys, we’re gonna have
as much fun at my party

as Freddy’s having
at his party.

Do you have an alpaca?

No, but I have a cat
that bites.

- Good enough.
- Freddy!

What are you doing here?

I looked inside the party,

and I saw everyone having
a good time with their friends,

and I realized I want to have
a good time with my friends.

Aww.

I’m glad you’re back, Freddy.
I’m raiding your fridge.

Can’t believe
you skipped the good party.

I didn’t.
I’m at the good party.

Hey, giant sandwich?

Whoa, dude!

Thanks.

They couldn’t fit it all
through the house!

That was the section that was
sticking out of the window.

Sorry we had a fight.

Sorry I messed
with your hair.

Party dance?

both: Oh!
Bring it around town!

Oh, oh!

Does that get you over him?
both: Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy.

No.
both: Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy.

Oh! Oh!
