NARRATOR:
Our story begins in Grazeland,

where that arch fiend, the Cow,

entertains Madame Marsupial.

More chilled cud,
Pouch-kins?

Ooh, Cow, you're so suave.

Suave?

I am great, Madame Marsupial.

The scourge of goodness
and justice's everywhere.

When the Cow moos,
udders tremble.

No need to toot
your own horns, Cow.

I know how awesome you are.

Why, I'll bet there's almost
nothing you can't do.

Almost?

What do you
mean almost?

There is nothing I can't do.

Come on, I dare you.

Name one thing I can't do.

Just one-- and I'll do it
to prove my love for you.

It's really not necessary, dear.

[purring]

I love you just
the way you are.

I insist.

Name one thing
which is beyond

my bovine brilliance.

Well...

no offense,

but I'm not sure
even you could defeat

the entire League
of Super Rodents

in all one
action-packed slugfest.

The League?

Fa-phoo!

And I thought you'd come
up with something hard.

Of course, if
you're afraid...

Afraid?!

I'll show you. Afraid?

Centurions,
attend your master.

[excited buzzing]

[sighs]

So much for the dinner date.

NARRATOR:
Meanwhile, on a hidden
tropical island

somewhere on Earth, within
an inconspicuous mound of dirt

lies the
famous Hole of Multitude.

MIGHTY MOUSE:
Hear ye!
hear ye!

This meeting
of the

League of Super Rodents

is hereby called to order.
Hmm.

First order of business--
the roll call.

[all grumbling]

[clearing throat]

Gas Gopher.

Waft on!

And King Hamster.

It's scampering time.

Burly Badger.

Swell out!

And Mole Mom.

Mole Mom?

Hey, where's...?

Burrow up!

Now then, the purpose
of this meeting

is to discuss ways
of drumming up work.

Business has been bad lately.

No robberies, no assaults.

Say, anybody know
of any jaywalking lately?

Not me.
I never heard of any.

Same with Mouseville.

If only some awesomely powered
criminal genius

would hurl a challenge at us.

[rumbling]

[all screaming]

It's... it's the...
it's the Cow!

None other.

You sniveling super weasels,
and don't even try to run.

My faithful warriors
have the place surrounded.

[loud buzzing]

Very well, Cow.

What is the meaning
of this intrusion?

I, the Cow, criminal genius,

will take on the entire
League of Super Rodents

one at a time.

So, that's your game, is it?

Huh. Very well, Cow--

I'll be the first.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
[cowbell ringing]

Wait and see.

What's the deal, Cow?

Ha, my challenge was hurled
at the rest of the League,

not at you.

After all, no one
can defeat Mighty Mouse.

Hmm... well, you're
absolutely right, Cow.

I am pretty darn
invulnerable.

MIGHTY MOUSE:
And the rest of the
less-super Leaguers

could use a good workout.

So I tell you what
I'm gonna do.

I'll watch.

Well, who's first?

This is gonna be good.

Take a whiff of this, Cow.

So, how do you
like that, Cow?

And this.

Bring this home, Cow.

[coughs]

Where... where...
[stifling sneeze]

Where are you?

C-C-Cow?
[coughs]

[screaming]

[evil laughter]

I love it.

My name is Madame Marsupial.

What's yours, big boy?

As if I didn't know.

Hmm...

Next.

Well, we'll see how he fares
against my super scamper power.

What...?!

Yeow!
[loud crash]

Are you doing
anything for dinner?

Oh...

Uh, well, um...
ac-actually... n-no.

Then how
about Italian?

[purring]

This is getting ridiculous.

For the honor of the League,
it's time to face this Cow down.

[thundering footsteps]

[cheering]

[classical music playing,
audience cheers]

[grunting]

[kettle drums beating]

[popping]

[loud grunting]

[yelling]

Ha, ha, ha! No one pumps
harder than the Cow.

Wait till I tell
Madame Marsupial about this.

[yelling]

Come here often?

Cow, over here.

[chuckles]

One by one, they fall.

This is easier than I thought.

[loud slurping]

Yes?
[purring]

Is there something
you'd like to say to me?

Um, well, I hope you won't
think I'm being too forward,

but I'd really like
another helping.

Well, come on, come on, come on!

Where's the next wearer
of color-clashing long johns?

[rumbling]

All right, Cow, stand up
to the might

of my mole missiles--
if you can.

[groans]

I gave it...
I gave it everything I had.

My best shots.

How? How did you survive
such an onslaught?

Easy, Mole Mom-- I'm wearing
my baby-proof vest.

[laughing]

Is that it?

The great League
of Super Rodents

defeated and humiliated already?

Aah, fa-fa-phooey.

Ha! You call yourselves heroes?

You make me sick.

Come on, make it happen for me.

COW:
Send some more at me.

I'll take 'em all on

with three hooves
tied behind my flank

and my tongue taped
to the ceiling.

Come on, I'm waiting.

NARRATOR:
Surely, this is too much a
handicap even for the Cow,

because after all,
here comes Wonder Chuck,

Guinea Pygmy, Tom Opossum,

Loaf Lad, She Shrew,

Broccio Pod, Frog Boy.

Even GI Gerbil

and his howling groundhogs
enter the desperate fray.

[all cheering]

[grunting]

[cheering]

Come on! Come and get it!

Yeah! Ha, ha!

Vamoose!

[grunting and laughing]

Finally. Work.

Making it happen.

That's the ticket! Now!

But all, alas, to no avail.

I did it!
I did it!

I defeated the entire League

of Super Rodents!

I did it!

Step up!

Take charge!
[laughing]

[continues laughing]

[crashing]

[buzzing]

It's the Rampaging Sloth.

He saved us.

His super slow-motion
slam may take a while,

but when it gets there,
it sure packs a wallop.

Mmm.

And now for dessert.

So, big boy, what would
you like for dessert?

[chuckles]

[slowly]:
Molasses.

ANNOUNCER:
It's Saturday matinee at
the Mouseville Cinema Octoplex.

CROWD:
Cartoons!

[cheering]

Psst, you guys.

This way in.

Hey, you guys can't
get in for nothing.

Well, look who snuck in.

Ah, I was chasing you guys.

Hey, turn it off!

[grumbling]

You squirts got to buy tickets.

Cheese it, fellas!

[screams]

Now, where'd they go?

Take a gander
at all this neat stuff.

[chuckles]
[gasps]

Looks complicated.

There must be a-a
million cartoons here!

Then why not look at them all?

ANNOUNCER:
While Bub and Froley watched,

Moe spliced together
a million different cartoons.

There, that should
do just fine.
