01x10 - The Pothole/Chuck's Perfect Plans

[bunniefuu]

♪ Let's go, me and you ♪

♪ Over, around, and through ♪

♪ Trucks go, see, and do ♪

♪ So let's go, me and you ♪

♪ Hey, my name is chuck ♪

♪ I've got the world
at my wheels ♪

♪ I've got a full tank
for adventure ♪

♪ And a hard time
standing still ♪

♪ So let's go, me and you ♪

♪ Over, around, and through ♪

♪ Trucks go, see, and do ♪

♪ So let's go, me and you ♪

Huh?

[ Tires screeching ]

Who-o-a!
Who-o-a! Who-o-a!

Wow, chuck, you're really
burning rubber today.

And as a fire truck,
I should know.

Sã­, amigo.

That's three times now
you passed us.

Today's the day
I'm gonna break my record

For fastest time
around the track.

I can feel it.

My handy arm lets me do
a lot of stuff,

But it doesn't make me
go any faster.

[ Sighs ]

I wonder what it would be like
to be as fast as you, chuck.

Aw, you guys
are plenty fast.

Hmm.

Powerin' pickups!

I wonder what it would be like
to not be able to go fast.

[ Horns honking ]

I'm in a hurry!
Come on! Come on! Come on!

I hate waiting!

Let's go! Let's go!
Let's go!

[ Air hisses ]

Huh?

Aw!

[ Shudders ]

Oof!

[ Tires screech ]

aah!

Look out!

[ Crashing ]

What was that?!

Whoa.

Is that what
tripped you up, chuck?

I guess so.

Lots of racing has probably
worn out this section of track,

So it's cracking.

Rain and heat and cold
made it even worse, I'll bet.

Weather can chip away at roads
and make them weaker.

Yeah. If this doesn't
get fixed soon,

It could become
wider and deeper

And eventually become
a big dangerous chunk

Taken out of the road --
a pothole.

Aw, well, so much for racing
on this track for awhile.

Hey! Where are you going,
boomer?

To tell your parents...

So they can bring in a truck

That'll pour pavement
into the crack

And another truck
to roll over it
and flatten it out.

[ Tires screech ]

then we'd have to wait

Practically forever
to race here again,

And I really think
I can break my record today.

Uh, I really don't think
it's a good idea.

[ Horn honks ]

well, I do.

[ Tires screech ]

come on, guys.

It's just a little crack.
We can fix it ourselves.

Handy, you've got to have
something we can use

To make this better,
right?

Of course I do.

I have a...wrench!

Stand back, everyone.

[ Mechanical whirring ]

hmm.

I can't wrench the crack closed.

But that's okay.

I've got something
even better -- a pair of pliers.

Stand back, everyone.

Why do we
have to stand back?

He's just using
a pair of pliers.

Maybe he's scared
he's gonna ply us.

[ Pliers scraping ]

[ Sighs ]

Okay, the pliers can't close
the crack, either.

Hang on.
I know I've got something.

Wait.

I think i...

Something's almost...

Here!

Hey, my birthday present
came in this -- last year.

What's all this paper
doing in there?

Who cares? It's just what
we need to fill the crack.

It is? It is?

Chuck: perfect.
Ready for racing.

Chuck, I don't think that's
the best way to fix it.

If we tell your mom and dad,
then wait for the repair trucks,

We could be racing again
as soon as tomorrow.

That's too long to wait.

I've got a record-breaking run
in me right now.

Let's rev it up, guys.

[ Tires screeching ]

See? Maybe a little bumpy, but
we can still totally race on it.

[ Crumbling ]

Look out, you guys!

[ Tires screech ]

Wow. Now the crack is
definitely a pothole.

Oh, yeah.

It almost looks
like something I'd dig out.

Now we've made it
worse.

We should have waited
until the crack was fixed.

Waiting?

All that's gonna do is keep me
from breaking my record.

We can still race.

How?
How? How?

Guys, we don't need
to fix the hole.

We just need to avoid it.

Remember
what my brother rally,

The famous racing truck,
always says?

All: "over, around, and through!
Trucks go and see and do!"

And what's the first part
of that saying?

Um..."Over"?

Exactly.

Nice and sturdy.

[ metal clangs ]

This should be a perfect bridge
for us to race over.

Huh. I didn't think
this was gonna work,

But it looks
like it will.

I'm just glad
we got it done fast.

I'm still revved up
to race.

Well, what are we
waiting for?

[ Tires screech ]

Isn't this better than
hanging around, doing nothing,

Waiting for some slow old trucks
to fix that hole?

[ Metal clangs ]

[ Tires screech ]

Ugh!

Powerin' pickups!

Okay, guys, let's just set
the sheets of metal

Over the hole
and keep racing.

Chuck, the support beams
are so low.

We'll pretty much be racing
on the metal by itself,

And it won't hold
our weight.

Okay, back to what rally says --
what's the second part?

"Over, around, and through" --
"around"!

You got it.
We'll go around the hole.

Chuck, can't we just wait?

Boomer, if there's one thing
I really don't like,

It's waiting.

So let's get our chassis
over to the parts yard.

I know just what we need.

Perfect!

This will keep us rolling
just fine.

On your mark, get set, go!

[ Tires screech ]

Hey, no fair!

[ Crack! ]

Okay, finally -- here I go,
ready for my record run.

Go get 'em, chuck!

Yeah, you can do it!

Gunky gaskets!

I'm too close to stop!

Wh-- ugh!

[ Tires screech ]

That was a close one.

Now the hole
is practically a trench.

See? There's no way
we can race on this track.

Now can we tell
your parents, chuck?

[ Sighs ]
I guess we have to.

Now, that's a heck
of a pothole.

Fixing this is going to take
a repair crew

To repave
the whole place.

Looks like this track is going
to be closed for about a week.

Mom, dad, I'm sorry.

I was so excited
to keep racing,

I thought
we could fix the hole

Or go around it long enough
for me to break my track record.

Instead [sighs]
I just made it worse,

And now no one can race.

Yeah, well, that's a good lesson
to learn, chuck.

Sometimes
a little waiting now

Means you avoid
a lot of waiting later on.

You're gonna have to hold off
on breaking that record.

I know.

Don't look so down,
mr. Machine.

The track needed repaving,
anyway.

We just have to do it a little
earlier than we expected.

That's good, I guess,

But what am I gonna do
while I wait?

I'll be so bored!

Chuck, amigo, waiting doesn't
always mean doing nothing.

Does it?

Yeah, chuck, you do have
another track here, remember?

The dirt track.

Red-hot turbochargers!
You're right, boomer.

I totally forgot.

I was so busy coming up
with ways to stay on this track

That I didn't even think about
other things we could be doing.

[ Laughs ]

[ Laughter ]

Powerin' pickups!

Whoa!

Yeah! Whoo!

Fantastico!

Whoo-hoo!
[ Laughs ]

You know what the best part
of this track is?

No.
Unh-unh.

Nope.

Out here, holes in the road
don't matter a bit.

They're just part of the fun.

Chuck, it's not polite

To look over
the customer's shoulder.

Oh, sorry, sir.

I was just noticing --

That's a great drawing
of a building.

[ Chuckles ]

That's quite all right.

You like
my blueprints, huh?

Blueprints?

They're the plans
that construction trucks follow

To build buildings.

I always look at blueprints

Before I head over
to the construction site

So that I'll be following
the plans as I work.

Do you have to follow
the plans exactly?

Exactly.

If we don't follow the plans
the way they're drawn,

The building
might be made wrong.

It could be lopsided
or leak in the rain.

Heck, it could even
fall apart.

Hmm.

Okay, build a wall there.

[ Pencil scratching ]

Perfect.
But it should be taller.

Let's add four more floors.

[ Pencil scratching ]

[ Wobble! ]

oh, no!

Wait a second!

Erase some of those floors!

Hurry!

[ Eraser squeaking ]

[ Sighs ] much better.

[ Elevator bell dings ]

the chuck tower is now open.

Well, I'm off
to the construction site.

See you, chuck.
Bye, haulie.

Goodbye!

Wow!
Those blueprints are cool.

You really have to plan
perfectly

So that nothing
goes wrong.

Speaking of plans, chuck,

I just got a letter
from your big brother.

He's planning to come home
for a visit.

Really?!
Rally's coming home?!

Powerin' pickup!

I just had
a great idea, mom --

We should have
a big party for rally!

That is a great idea.

Let's see --
we'll need to get decorations.

And what do you think --
maybe some games?

Hit the brakes, mom.

I was sort of thinking
I would plan this party myself.

I want it to be special,

To show rally
just how important he is to me.

I get you.

That's very sweet,
mr. Machine.

I bet rally
will be honored.

It's going to be great,

But to make it perfect,
I have to have a perfect plan.

You sure
you don't want my help?

Nope. I can plan this out
with my friends.

I'll even get handy
to be my assistant.

Thanks for, uh,
not helping, mom.

You're...welcome?

I'm home!

Hello?

Mom? Dad? Chuck?

Hurray!
Welcome home, rally!

Hiya, rally!

rally!
Welcome home, son!

Hi, honey.

A surprise party
for me?

Red-hot turbochargers!

Is everything going the way
I planned it so far?

Balloons -- check.

Welcome cheer -- check.

So far, so good.

Now it's time
for the speech.

Friends, trucks,
and especially rally,

I've planned this "welcome home"
party to be absolutely perfect

Because, uh, well --

Well, because I want to make
sure that rally likes it.

Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah!

Whoo-hoo!

Yeah!

Chuck,
you planned all this?

It must have been
hard work.

Hard work
is no big deal.

Like you always say --
"over, around, and through..."

Both:
"...trucks go and see and do!"

Yeah!

Bumpers up!

[ Both laugh ]

Let's have a party,
everyone!

Okay, handy,
what's next on my plan?

Time for our first game --

Musical parking spots.

[ Up-tempo music playing ]

That's right, everyone --

As long as the music plays,
you drive.

When it stops,
hurry up and park

Because the one left
without a parking space is out.

[ Music stops ]

[ Tires screech ]

oh! Huh?

[ Groans ]

Sorry, rowdy.
You're out.

That's okay.

My mom always says
it's impossible to
find a parking space.

Now I know
what she means.

And we'll take
one parking spot away.

Okay, haulie,
start up the music again.

Okay, everybody,
here we go.

[ Garbled rock music plays ]

oops.

Hang on. Let me see if I can
get the radio to work better.

Oh, no!
Mom, what's going on?

That's not in the plan.

Hey, this is...
Kind of fun.

[ Laughs ]
look, I'm doing the robot.

[ Laughs ]

Mom, this is all wrong!
Turn it off! Turn it off!

[ Music stops ]

Aw! Aw!

What happened?

Keep it going.

[ Tires screech ]

I'm so sorry, everyone.

That wasn't
supposed to happen.

Quick, handy -- let's start
the next game on the plan.

Okay, chuck.

Next up -- "pin the license
plate on the bumper."

Sorry, rally.

But don't you worry --

This next game
will go perfectly as planned.

I promise.

In this game,

Whoever attaches
the license plate

Nearest to the bumper wins.

The only problem -- you have to
do it blindfolded and dizzy!

Whoa!
Okay. I can find the truck.

I think
it's right over here!

Got it!

Uh, not quite.

Oops.
Sorry, mr. Chuck's dad.

That's okay, soku.
Let's go, rowdy.

You're next.

[ Tires screech ]

Yes, I know
exactly where it is!

[ Crash! ]

Oops! [ Chuckles ]
was that too hard?

No! That's not
supposed to happen!

[ Tires screech ]

Aah!

[ Tires screech ]

that's okay.

I think I got it, chuck.

Whoa!

Here we go --
all under control.

Oops!

[ Gasps ]

[ Metal clanging ]

This wasn't a part
of my plan at all.

Sorry, rally.

[ Laughing ]
it's okay, chuck.

[ Laughter ]

it's not funny!

The game is ruined.
[ Sighs ]

Look, let's all just go
over to the proving grounds

For the next game --

The 7-wheeled race.

I promise this one
will go

Exactly the way
we planned it...

I hope.

Okay, guys,
the rules are simple --

Each team is connected
side by side,

So you have to figure out
how to drive together.

The first team
to the finish line wins!

On your mark, get set, go!

[ Tires screech ]

We're losing control!

[ Laughs ]
whoa!

Whoops!
We are, too!

[ Tires screech ]

Now what?

I know -- reverse.

[ Tires screech ]

Honey,
we're falling behind.

Slow and steady
wins the race, dear.

[ Tires screeching ]

Phew!

That was close.

[ Metal crunches ]

What happened?

I-i think
we hit something.

Hey!

Oops. Guess mr. Slow and steady
should have hit the brakes.

[ Laughter ]

This is
the worst party ever!

I had such perfect plans,

And nothing went the way
it was supposed to.

I guess we should
all just go home.

I'm sorry, rally.
You deserved the perfect party.

Chuck, wait.

I've got this one, mom.

[ Sighs ]
hi, rally.

I guess you're probably
really disappointed, huh?

I wanted your party
to be perfect,

And all my plans
were spoiled.

Spoiled?

No way, chuck.
This party is awesome!

Don't you mean
"aw-ful"?

Everything that could go wrong
did go wrong.

Look, little bro, sometimes
things don't go as planned.

You can say that again.

But the best part
of the party for me

Was when this big truck
rolled away [laughs]

And everyone started
going after it

And then
they couldn't catch it.

[ Laughs ]

Yeah, that was
kind of funny, I guess.

The way I figure,

Nobody could plan something
that funny to happen.

Oh, and when the music
got all staticky

During the musical
parking spots.

[ Laughs ]
oh, oh, oh!

And I'll never forget soku
and handy driving backwards!

[ Laughs ]

Oh, yeah, and handy said,
"I think we hit something!"

[ Both laugh ]

[ Both gasping ]

See what I mean, bro?

[ Sighs ]
maybe you're right, rally.

Maybe I was trying
to make things too perfect.

So, what do you say?

How about we keep this party
going for awhile?

Okay!

[ Tires screech ]

So, I'm really
sorry, guys.

I got very disappointed
when my plans didn't work out,

But rally showed me
that you can still have fun

When things don't go
the way you expect them to.

That's okay, chuck.

Are we gonna play pin
the license on the truck again?

Well, we could do that.

Or we could play
"catch the runaway truck"!

Yeah, let's get it!

catch the runaway truck!

Get it!

let's get it!

Catch the runaway truck!

[ Chuckles ]

Maybe the party wasn't perfect,
little bro,

But it was the best party
I've ever been to.

Thanks, bro.

But I can catch
the runaway truck first!

[ Laughs ]
not if I catch you first!

[ Tires screech ]

[ Both laugh ]

whoa!

Catch the runaway truck!
Get it!

Catch the runaway truck!
