03x09 - Super Nerd Much?

[bunniefuu]

[beeping]

[theme music]

[expl*si*n]

[trilling beep]

Give it up!

There's nowhere else
to run, Dash Dawson!

Nice try, ladies.

[grunt, panting]

See you in your dreams!

Ha!

[girls gasp]

[blast]

[screaming]

ALEX: Ugh!

[grunting]

[man screams] Man

[splash]

Oops!

Heh, looks like
Dash went splash.

Uh, Jerry?

Better send the WOOHP
water rescue team.

We kind of dropped the
dreamy-looking bandit

in the Bay.

[school bell ringing]

GIRLS: Whoa!

Just in time!

Hmm?

For a pop quiz?

I didn't even get a
chance to prepare!

Ugh!

No doubt!

My pores are clogging,
and my hair is grody!

I mean, what's with Jere
whooping us to school

right after a missing?

Hello?

[bell ringing]

[DOOR CRASHES OPEN,
EXCLAMATIONS]

From naughty to
hottie in 45 minutes!

The way I looked, I could have
been nabbed by the nerd patrol.

Be bold-- vote for Arnold!

Huh?

Hey, I'm running
for class president!

Oh.

Gee, Arnold, that's great!

Ugh, what are you running for?

King of the nerds?

[gulps]

Class president.

[nervous giggle]

You'll vote for me,
won't you, Mandy?

Ugh, please, I'd sooner
vote for the school mascot.

Don't be a laughingstock--

vote for the peacock.

Haha!

Uh, oh.

[bell ringing]

Forget about Mandy, Arnold.

We'll vote for you.

[clinking]

[clatter]

Huh?

Hey, did somebody?

[clink, whooshing sound]

[grunting]

Wow!

This is a great workout!

Ugh!

Feel the burn.

[doors open]

[surprised gasps]

CLOVER: Arnold?

[glittery sound]

[gasps]

[whistle]

[grunt]

Huh?

Gah!

[grunting]

Ooh, close one.

[ball screeches]

Haha, is that the best you got?

[gasp]

[thud]

[panting]

[door shuts]

Do you guys notice anything
different about Arnold?

You mean, besides the fact
that for the first time ever,

he's actually noticeable?

Ah, maybe he'll get
my note after all.

Come on, girls.

Ah!

Whoa!

[thuds]

Bad news, spies.

We had no more luck
than you snagging

the dreamy-looking bandit.

You didn't find
him under the bridge?

Neither hide nor hair.

Ah, and what
fabulous hair it is!

Hmm.

Well, guess we'll just
have to keep on looking.

Dawson's capture is
more crucial than ever.

WOOHP found his
fingerprints at the Tower

of London several weeks ago--

seems he made off with
one of the Crown Jewels,

the notorious Cat's Eye Emerald.

The Cat's Eye!

I heard about that.

The Cat's Eye is the only
Crown Jewel not put on display.

It was given to Queen
Elizabeth in 1578.

They say it has special powers.

But there's another
reason to find Dawson--

he might be out for revenge.

[gasp] Against us?

Why?

Just because he chased
him around the world,

and trapped him on the bridge,
and ripped his flying cape,

and sent him into the
freezing Bay, and--

Precisely.

So you're going to need a nice,
new set of gadgets to help you.

G.L.A.D.I.S.: Welcome, ladies.

Which ones do
we get this time?

Whichever you feel
might best defend

you from the vengeful Dawson.

I want the nuclear
meltdown curling iron.

G.L.A.D.I.S.: I don't think
that's such a good idea.

Okay.

This is so cool!

I've always wanted to try the--

G.L.A.D.I.S.: The
laser nail file?

Sure, why not?

G.L.A.D.I.S., I told
them they could choose.

I know what's
best for my girls.

Well, I'm choosing my
gadget, and that's that.

It's a pen?

Perfect choice, Clover.

It's the brand new
satellite dish pen.

Wow!

I can see myself from a
zillion different angles!

This'll be perfect
for my next makeover!

Hmm.

[beeps]

[chuckles]

Heh, no kidding.

She's, like, falling out
of these "spuh-rayed"

on hiphuggers.

I'm all like, hello,
they're hiphuggers,

not hippo huggers, ha.

Ah!
[thuds]

Hey!

What is going on?

I was in the middle of a--

[electronic whooshing]

I can't believe Jerry
totally lost Dawson.

I know!

He could be anywhere.

I mean, he could even be--

watching us right now.

Haha.

MANDY: Help!

Help!

It's him!

He is here!

You guys run for it.

I'll handle Dawson.

That's not Dawson.

Someone's trapped in
the janitor's closet!

Uh, hmm.

[door opens]

[screaming]

Mandy?

What happened?

I'm a nerd!

I gotta get outta here before
someone sees me like this!

Mandy, wait!

Oh great, how headgear is in?

Note to self--
call orthodontist.

I don't think that was Mandy's
latest fashion statement.

It sounded like she
was being attacked.

But there's no one here.

Hey, she dropped her scrunchy.

Oh, you're right.

She must have been
forced to wear this.

This color is so last season.

[music playing]

Maybe Mandy's just begging
for attention again, as usual.

Ugh, She was a drama queen.

It looked like she just
got some really bad fashion

advice, like, from
someone really nerdy.

[bushes rustling, chuckling]

Hmm, SPF 40, SPF 80, SPF 500--

perfect!

[squish of sunscreen bottle]

[footsteps]

[gasp]

Rude much!

Ever heard of knocking?

Hi, Clover.

[gasp]

Arnold, you've changed.

[footsteps]

[electronic whooshing]

CLOVER: Arnold?

Help!

[clover screams, girls gasp]

It's Clover!

Ah, another tan
line emergency.

[electronic whooshing]

Clover?

[door knob turning]

[girls gasp]

Oh, Clover, no!

Uh.

Uh.

I'll never date again!

What happened?

It was Arnold!

He had this green ring, and he--

he nerdified me!

[sobbing]

Green ring?

Arnold has the
Cat's Eye Emerald!

Arnold?

But how?

[engine starts, wheels squeal]

[gasps]

There he goes!

[footsteps]

[car doors closing]

Ah!

Oh, I even jump like a nerd.

Whoever thought
they'd be chasing me?

[train engine]

Haha!

[car accelerating]

[train bell]

[train horn]

[screams]

Oh no!

[beeps]

[screaming]

[thuds]

Haha!

[mechanical whirring]

[wheels squealing]

Hey!

He's got cool gadgets,
and he's not even a spy!

[wheels squealing]

Haha!

[laser sounds]

Wow!

I knew Arnold was smart,
but not sneaky smart!

[crunch]

[beep]

[liquid whooshing]

An oil slick?

Boring!

Ugh!

Uh, Alex?

That boring oil slick
isn't so boring anymore!

[liquid whooshing]

Hey!

What's going on?

[crunching]

It's not oil!

It's millions of
rubber-eating nanobots!

[screaming]

[crunch]

That is one clever techno geek.

More like techno hunk!

Well, he's kinda cute.

He's kinda cute, while you
and Mandy are-- well, you know.

Hey, give me some hair!

Ow!

Nerds have feelings
too, you know!

We just need a DNA analysis.

[computer whirring]

Whoa!

The Cat's Eye altered your DNA!

Ah, you mean I'm
like this for life?

Clover, give me
Mandy's scrunchy.

Perfect!

Mandy left a hair on it.

[gasps]

The same thing
happened to Mandy.

Arnold got to her, too!

But why is he doing this?

Maybe Jerry can help.

Hmm?

Jerry!

We found the Cat's Eye Emerald,
and someone is using it

to nerdify cool people.

Nerdify?

Make people more--

Um.

You know, like you.

I beg your pardon.

But wait!

There seems to be a major
disturbance right nearby.

[engine starts]

It's Arnold!

Let's go!

[music playing]

[car clattering]

[screaming]

Ah!

Either Arnold's in there,
or there's a major cartoon

convention going on.

Hmm.

His car's in the
underground parking lot.

But which floor
could he be on?

Ah!

[click and whirring]

[clicks]

In the penthouse!

Great work, Clover.

We nerds are good for
something, you know.

[laughs]

[music plays]

[elevator door opens]

Arnold lives here?

Wow!

Talk about buff.

Years ago you picked on me,
and now you're going to pay.

What's going on, man?

[ring powers up]

[gasps]

Oh!
Wait!

Help!
No!

Oh!

Hoh-oh!

Heh!

BUFF GUY: My beautiful muscles!

Oh, no!

[shrieks]

That's why he's changing.

The ring sucks cool DNA from
people who are mean to him,

and sends it to Arnold.

But why did he zap me?

I've never been mean to him!

SAM AND ALEX: Hmm.

OK, so I turned
him down on a few--

hundred dates.

But I was being nice by not
letting him get his hopes up.

I want my cool DNA back!

[cries while running away]

Ladies, what a
pleasant surprise.

It's over, Arnold!

Give us the ring!

I don't think so.

It's too cool being cool.

Yes, but at what cost?

No one takes my coolness,
and lives to talk about it!

I do.

Get him, Spies!

That was cool!

I mean-- you can't
get away that easily!

Is that the best you've got?

Hey, two against one, not fair.

SAM: Hey!

Hiyah!

[laughs]

What are these things?

Pocket protectors,
every nerd's best friend.

Arnold!

You've got to stop this!

Stop it?

I'm just getting started.

Ladies, I give
you Beverly Hills.

You know, for an ex-nerd,
that's a pretty nerdy model.

ARNOLD: [laughs] Soon
everyone will be geekier

than me, starting with you two.

Uh.

Why start with us?

We don't mind waiting.

Arnold, don't you see?

Your coolness always wears off.

Even if you zapped
the whole world,

It's still only temporary.

[screams]

SAM AND ALEX: No!

Now, you're just like me!

Hey, it's true!

Misery does love company.

Dash Dawson?

Thanks for dropping
me into the Bay, girls.

Now, where is my ring?

Does it look like we
still have the ring?

That ring is mine!

Give it to me.
- Fat chance, geek.

Now run along, you'll be late
for your accordion lesson.

Aaahh!

Ow!

[laughs] What a smash!

[grunts]

If I can just
get my nail file--

That was too close.

Yes!

ALEX: That's enough!

Want to try four against one?

It's starting to wear off.

Ugh!

He's getting away!

[engine whirs and revs up]

I want my ring back!

[theme music playing]

[ring powers up]

What's he doing?

[gasping shrieks]

Huh?

What?

What?

[laughs as muscles build]

[laughs maniacally]

Time to zap the zapper!

No!

Nerds might be
weak, but we're smart!

SAM AND ALEX: Huh?

Let's go!

The geeks shall
inherit the Earth.

[laughs]

[ring powers up]

Come on!

Time to write him
out of the will!

[shrieking]

[gasps]

[screaming]

Huh?

Give me the ring!

Never!

[grunting]

[screaming]

Even my fingers
have been nerdified!

Yes!

[shrieks]

[laughs] It's good to be back!

Nooooo!

[grunting]

Whoa!

Yes!

I need a little help.

No!

I will not be a
nerd again, ever!

[both gasp]

[laughs]

[grunting]

[all gasping]

[screaming]

Now you can nerdify yourself.

See how much you like it.

Aaahhhhh!

Hey, we're cool!

I'm free again!

ALL: [screams]

ALEX: Uh-oh.

Well, Spies, what
did we learn this time?

Better to be a live
nerd than a squashed hunk.

Ugh!

You guys still think I'm a nerd?

Um, well--

It-- um, well-- uh--

No.

Of course not, Arnold.

You're just coolness-challenged.

[music plays]

Be bold.

Vote for Arnold.

Vote Arnold.

Too bad about Arnold.

I mean, yesterday he
was almost date-able.

SAM AND ALEX: Hmm.

Except for that crazy
mad scientist thing.

Good thing we zapped his memory
with the WOOHP mem-eliminator.

Hi, guys!

You know, I had
this weird dream,

where we were fighting and all.

And I was big, and
strong, and really cool.

Oh, Arnold, you're
not even president

yet, and all the power
is going to your head.

WOMAN [ON PA]: The results of
the Beverly Hills High student

body elections are in.

Our new class president is the
Beverly Hills High peacock.

[students cheering]

Well, Arnold, look
on the bright side.

With the peacock
as class president,

we're going to
need a new mascot.

And that's an
elected position.

It's a whole new campaign.

I don't ask a lot, I just
want to be your mascot.

Just give me a shot,
I'll be a great mascot.

[laughs]

You just had to encourage him.

I know everyone told
me make fun of nerds,

and nobody wants to be one.

But I don't think they
get their proper due.

I mean, without nerds,
there'd be like no internet,

or MP3s, or even ATMs.

In fact, there'd
probably be no roof!

Because I mean, face it.

Without nerds,
there'd be no Jerry.

Can you imagine?

No, X-powders, no supercool
flying jets, no gadgets.

Next time I see Jerry he is
totally getting his props.
