04x12 - Mani-Maniac Much?

[bunniefuu]

[intro music]

I just love my new nails.

Totally.

And the best part
is, no annoying

chit-chat with the manicurists.

[scratching]

What was that?

[evil laughter]

I don't know, but I'm not
waiting around to find out.

What's happening?

[girls screaming]

Mega Mani Mania here we come.

My nails are practically
twitching in anticipation.

Awesome.

Laser nail buffing,
electronic groove fillage, power

airbrush polish application.

It's like all my mani dreams
have finally come true.

I can't believe
how futuristic it is.

Not to mention expensive.

Scouring the
world for the latest

and greatest nail treatments
doesn't come cheap Sammy.

Now come on.

Our high tech nail
destiny awaits.

Think I'll go French
mani on the digits,

Russian red on the toes.

International
nails, I like it.

Excuse me, do you
have an appointment?

ooh!

Please enter your name.

[gasps]

This place is so
cutting edge, even

the receptionist is automated.

Allow me.

Your mani pedi is
scheduled for May 30th.

But that's in six months.

We can't wait that
long to be pampered.

Sorry but Mega Mani Mania
is booked solid until then.

Didn't you just have your
grand opening yesterday?

By invitation only.

Looks like the loser trio
didn't make the list, again.

By the way, they
did an amazing job

on my laser groove fillage and
my customized color matching,

don't you think?

Whatever Mandi.

Bev Hills is full
of manicurists.

Who needs this
snobby salon anyway.

Without an official
Mega Mani Mania mani

you don't qualify for the Mega
Mani Mania modeling contest.

Whoever wins gets to be the
Mega Mani Mania spokes model.

Did you just say spokes model?

Mhm.

Even if you can get
a mani, you'd never

win with me in the running.

Now, If you'll excuse me,
my ultra exclusive power

buff and shine awaits.

Help

That's it.

I've got to get into the Mega
Mani Mania modeling contest.

Mega Mani Mania mani or not.

Whoa.

That's one monstrous
Mega Mani Mania mouthful.

Clover, don't you
think you're just

being obsessed with the
contest because of Mandy?

Duh.

I'm going to find a way
inside the super chichi salon

if it kills me.

Good morning super spies.

For Some of us maybe, I
happen to be in the middle

of a major nail emergency.

I'm afraid it will
have to wait Clover.

We've got another
emergency on our hands.

So that explains the
chopperiffic WOOHPing.

In the last two
days Beverly Hills has

suffered a rash of abductions.

This is Clara Hughes,
Jessica Walker

and three other
unidentified teenage girls.

Did they know each other?

Not that we are aware of.

I wonder what they
all have in common?

That's what two super
spies are here to find out.

COMPUTER: Attack in progress.


another Beverly Hills teen.

You'd better
use your jet pack.

We're on it.

COMPUTER: Here are your gadgets,
the net throwing expandable rod

mascara, the hot and spicy gum,
and the multi-function charm

bracelet.

Good luck girls.

Are you sure
this is the place?

It's so serene, I feel like I
should be meditating right now.

[scream]

That doesn't sound like
a calming mantra to me.

It's coming from the backyard.

Take your hands off me.

Help!

Hey, isn't that Clara Jessica?

Two of the missing girls.

Let's take a closer look.

Or not.

Let's get them.

First rule of pool
safety, never run on deck.

And now for the other one.

Ouch!

Now I know how those
topiary hedge thingies feel.

Forget the girl
I'm taking you out.

[scream]

Chlorine and a top
coat so don't mix.

[scream]

Okay, what was up
with those girls?

I don't know.

But my spy suit will
never be the same.

Talk about freaky.

It's like they had super
mani powers or something.

Speaking of nails,
take a look at this.

This is the most beautiful
fake nail I've ever seen.

I thought I knew all
the salons in town,

but I have never seen
anything like this before.

Whoever did this is good.

Almost too good.

We better get to WOOHP and
have the design analyzed.

Oh great.

I broke a nail.

Now I need that Mega Mani
Mania mani more than ever.

We're in the middle of a
major kidnapping crisis here.

Think you might want to
re prioritize, Clover?

Looking good is a priority.

You know I always work
better fully polished.

But G.L.A.D.I.S. I need
that appointment As you

can clearly see
my Joyous Jasmine

nails aren't so choice anymore.

G.L.A.D.I.S.: For
the last time Clover,

I am lending a
distribution system.

Hacking into computers
for manicure appointments

is beneath me.

What am I supposed to do.

I can't just walk around
with a ragged tip.

Do my own nails?

As if.

Anything yet Sam?

The nail we found is the
work of local salon owner Manny

Wong.

Oh yeah.

I think I've read about him.

Didn't he win like a ton of
international mani awards?

Hong Kong International
Manicurist of the Year Award,

three years running, the
U.N. Nails for Peace medal

of distinction,
and the prestigious

Golden Nail for one of a kind
of excellence in nail design.

Wow, he's practically an
international national nail

ambassador.

Well I had no idea
there was such a thing.

Whoa, check it out the
stone in the bumblebee's eye

is some kind of receiver.

Why would a nail designer
put a receiver in his nail art?

Maybe he really likes
to keep track of his work.

Mr. Wong, if you're listening,
totally awesome artwork.

You're a magician
with the polish.

Why don't you three go down to
Many's salon and see what else

you can find out.

You've got it, Jer.

Many's Museum of
Mani Art, here we come.

Looks like Mani's
gone out of business.

Why would an artist of his
caliber go out of business?

Surely there's a market for
his one of a kind the art.

There's only one way to find
out, get some insider info

in this Manny mani character.

And I do mean insider.

Nice work, Alex.

You're getting super good
at breaking and entering.

Thanks, I think.

You coming?

Yep just give me a sec.

Mega Mani Mania,
how can I help you?

Hi, my name is, uh, the, um,
Duchess of South Licthenfield.

I'm only in town for one
day, ambassadorial duties,

and I desperately
need a manicure.

I won't take no for an answer.

I'm sorry for the confusion
Duchess, but aren't you

already here?

Right, keep up the great work.

I totally thought that
I meet the country up.

Forget the mani
and focus Clover.

Sorry.

Manny sure wasn't
big on hygiene.

But he sure did take
his tools seriously, this

is 24 carat gold nail polish.

Take a look at this.

It's Clara Hughes,
Jessica Walker and look

that's the girl they abducted.

That's the connection.

The girls were all
former clients of Many's.

These designs must have
taken hours to complete.

It's a match.

This is definitely Many's work.

What's that noise?

I don't know, but it seems
to be coming from over there.

It looks like some
sort of transmitter.

You don't think
this has anything

to do with the weird receiver
effect on the bumblebee nail?

My guess would be yup.

Somebody's coming.

There's nowhere to hide.

Quick, we'll be
safe behind here.

Behind the mind
controlling transmitter?

What exactly is your
definition of safe?

Is it me, or does
Donna look different?

Gives new meaning to
being a sl*ve to your nails.

Ladies, it's so
nice to see you again.

I suppose you're wondering
what you're doing here.

Uhhh.

In order to punish my
ex-clients for abandoning

my genius one of a kind nail
art for the prefab blandness

of Mega Mani Mania's
computerized concoctions,

you girls will take out Mega
Manny Mania one nail at a time.

[laughter]

That's so unfair.

You mean all of you are
Mega Mani Mania clients?

Hi there.

Don't mind us, we
were just leaving.

Intruders.

Get them.

Incoming.

Hello, a little help here?

You'd never break a
nail wearing these babies.

Hey, didn't I take
you out already?

Get off of me you no
good Mani Manny Manians.

You're still miffed that we
couldn't save you aren't you,

I can tell.

I don't get it Maniac Manny,
why take out Mega Mani Mania?

Yeah, why not just mind
control everyone into being

loyal customers again?

Mega Mani Mania must
pay for what they've done.

And so will you.

Now if you'll excuse me the
artist needs to prepare.

We better come up
with a plan before Manny

turns us into mindless minions.

And before manis are
totally ruined for me forever.

The hot and spicy gum, we
can use it to sweat our way

right out of these restraints.

Grody, but effective.

Man, that's hot stuff.

Hurry, Alex, Manny's coming.

Oh no, what am I
supposed to do now?

Just relax, and
enjoy your mani.

Stop them.

Clover has been doing power
Pilates three times a week.

I don't think
stomach exercises

are responsible for that.

Oh no, Clover's
a Manny minion.

Wait, Sam, what about Clover?

First, we warn
Mega Mani Mania,

then we'll worry
about saving Clover.

Don't worry Clover.

We'll be back before your
next hangnail, promise.

Excuse me, do you
have an appointment?

We're not here for manis,
we're here to warn you.

Long-fingered
henchwomen are coming

to take this place apart.

Nail by nail.

Oh my, that does sound bad.

Puh-lease, don't
listen to them.

They're just making
up some bogus story

because they get an appointment,
and want to punish everyone

for their loser-ishness.

Really?

Well I only have one
thing to say about that.

Thanks a lot Mandy.

So much for the
direct approach.

Guess we'll just have
to find another way in.

We were WOOHPed through a
Mega Mani Mania skylight, right?

Great thinking Alex.

Clover was right, I
am getting good at this.

Everyone, listen up.

You have to leave
Mega Mani Mania now.

If you don't, you're
going to be paying

more than exorbitant prices.

Just put your
flip-flops on and go, go.

Don't worry, you'll
be safe in here.

And don't come out
until we tell you.

As if I'd ever listen
to you two freaks.

I know we've have had
problems in the past, Mandy,

but please do as we
say, just this once.

Oh, let Mandy stay.

This is even more
bland than I thought.

I'd like to test
out my new mani.

Excuse me do you have--

please enter your--

You have finally
lost it, Clover.

Your insane jealousy of me
has pushed you over the edge.

Stop.

Those machines bring joy to
so many teens, just like you.

Let's see if you
look pretty in pink.

Now that's what I
call a nail slick.

Alex, watch out.

Ah.

Thanks Sammie.

What the--

Got ya.

Can't we talk
about this, you know,

spy to mindless mani minion.

Okay, talk officially over.

That outta hold
you for a while.

Help!

When I look at
you, I think calm.

Blue sea with pelican.

Wow, really?

That would be so
cool, if I wasn't

about to be you mindless sl*ve.

Here's a little taste
of your own mani medicine.

The only way to stop them is
to take out the transmitter.

I'll buff.

You call Jer.

Get them.

Jer, please tell me
that whirring noise

means your in the chopper.

Right you are, Sam.

What can I do for you?

As crazy as this
sounds, we need

you to rig the chopper to
deflect a laser nail buffer

at Manny's Museum of Mani Art.

Think you can handle it?

Just give me 30 seconds.

Here goes nothing.

After all this,
I'll never take

manicures for granted again.

Looks like Jer was able
to destroy the transmitter.

What happened?

And what am I doing
here with you losers?

I don't care if Mega Mani Mania
was given five fingernails

by Mani Weekly, I am
never setting foot

in this wretched salon again.

Where am I?

Goodie, Mega Mani Mania.

Hello, mani perfection.

Look no further, we found our
Mega Mani Mania spokes model.

You mean I won?

I won!

Wait, is my lip
gloss shiny enough?

We're only sh**ting
it from the wrists down.

Mega Mani Mania spokes
model is a hand model dear.

Congrats on being the Mega
Mani Mania's spokes model,

freak-o.

Too bad no one will
be able to tell.

I think we've had enough mani
attacks for one day, don't you?

Right you are, Sammie.

Let me at em.

Just let me at her.

Get away from me.

You are crazy.

You just want to be me
that's your problem.

There's only one--
leave me alone.

Fake nails can be way fun.

For starters, they work great
for athletic girls like me who

don't like their nails
getting in the way

when they play sports.

They also work for
smart girls like Sam,

who do a ton of typing.

I think they look great.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

Come on.

Stupid door knob.

Can anyone hear me?

Let me out.
