memein'

why am i asking you all these questions?

you're right--i give up

so, who wants to save the world?

wow, i didn't think superpowers worked that way

does this mean we're not getting pizza...?

not bad, partner in crime!

this is the ladle that helps us drink from the fountain of knowledge

i'm just like anyone else, no matter how many stars i have

the greatest lesson of all--the precious value of life

i just wanna know your name

if one wishes to be a good noodle, one must behave like a good noodle

i saw the whole thing behind my one-way chalkboard!

and to think i could be wearing a powdered wig right now...

for a second or two, i thought she was a goner

no, we will not be swayed by tears anymore

i suppose i have no choice but to offer a reward

you're right--how do we get out of here?!

nevermind--this happened a long time ago

i can't believe it's finally here--thank you, thank you, thank you!

are you thinking what i'm thinking?

wow, pretty good time!

boy, the competition's getting tough...

that's it, we are starting some serious training right now!

don't even bother showing up tomorrow

no more fooling around, time to get serious!

i'll alert the paramedics

you're blowing everything we trained for--blowing it!

don't give me that look

why didn't you tell me i wasn't listening?

why didn't you tell me i was pushing too hard?

uh--why is it in a cage?

don't touch me!

i must be in the wrong room

i'm not [name] i'm, uh, harold! harold... flowers!

being cheap is a terrible thing

eugh, why does it smell so foul?

please, give me another chance!

c'mon [name], show a little dignity

alright, alright, i'll give you another chance

isn't this too good to be true?!

i thought you were a cheap old tightwad

you mean i'm awake?

hey man, ease up, you're crushing my arm!

you almost tore a man's arm off for a penny...

how could you trade [name] for sixty-two cents?!

i want another chance--i didn't learn anything!

he's your problem now--he's a fate worse than death!

you and i gotta hang out more, here's the days i'm available: mondaytuesdaywednesdaythursdayfridaysaturdaysunday--

and that is why you always pay attention to the mountain

i am listening to you, mountain!

stop naming moves after me!

everyone is an idiot except for me

don't you have to be stupid somewhere else?

do it again, i wasn't looking

you're a lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky luck boy

but i am going to need you to be more careful

is this where the line starts?

no part of me is safe

i was one of the lucky ones--i'm a survivor

so i've simply decided i am never leaving my house again

hello friend, enjoying the outside world?

i'm living out the remainder of my life in safety

i was wrong to go against nature

sooner or later, you're gonna have to go outside!

alright [name], that is enough!

i guess i'll have to find a new best friend...

i don't need a wish--everything i'd ever want is right here

now remember, don't jump out until i give the signal

this is exactly the kind of thing i was talking about!

no, this can't be happening!

great minds think alike, am i right?

i got the elements on my side--the elements of surprise!

i'm ready--ready to get it on

i may be down, but i'm not out!

who threw that piece of paper at me?!

only the baddest of the bad can get in here

how tough am i? how tough am i?! i had a bowl of nails for breakfast this morning!

this place is too tough for you, little man.

i'll have you know i stubbed my toe last week and i only cried for 20 minutes!

how is your collection coming along?

you can't hide what's inside

what you need is a tough hairdo

he isn't bald--he has a shaved head. shaved. that's a hairdo!

say--haven't i seen you before?

well then, i guess it's time to take it up a notch.

relax, you're among friends!

i gotta pick a fight with a muscular stranger

i feel pretty bad for the next guy who looks at me funny!

you, smiling over there and what not--somebody ought to teach you some manners!

oh my gosh, i never thought this moment would come!

please--have mercy!

this is the happiest day of my life!

you ran inside and slipped on an ice cube

so i just took my private yacht across my private lake to my private heliport--it's the only way off my private island

oh, i'm just succeeding in everything you failed in

anyone can be a bigshot in a hicktown like this one!

oh no he's hot!

what have you accomplished since high school?

oh, boohoo, let me play you a sad song on the world's smallest violin

lets just take a second here to relax

now, i just want you to empty your mind

if you need anything else, just call!

okay, i admit it, i'm a fraud!

this was a futile, pathetic attempt to impress you

ugh, i have such a headache

now to get a good night's sleep

shut up--i said shut up!

you think i'm a robot?!

you're going to interrogate my blender...?

what's the matter--is he stupid?

i think somebody's hungry!

don't 'one more minute' me, mr. man!

so, what's the plan?

for a second, i thought you were mad at me

wait, wait, let me guess! ... i give up.

oh, so this is the thanks i get for working overtime?

this is the hardest part of every parents' life... i assume

the only way for the ritual to work is for us to get hurt! ... real bad.

well that was a rip-off

we're dead! do you know what that is?!

we're not cavemen--we have technology

don't panic, panic is the enemy

you don't have to look around, i already did that for ya!

no, no, don't look, it's a trick!

you gonna buy something, or just stand there? because there's a standing fee

look carefully at the 'i really wish i weren't here right now' button

not so fast, eager mcbeaver!

hosting a party is hard work...

nineteen seconds--that's a new record!

well, i guess it's time to move again

you better call an astronomer, because this [food] is out of this world!

this is gonna be the coolest party ever!

i officially declare the party switch in the 'on' position!

so--do you come here often?

is it too late to offer you some punch...?

that's funny, i don't remember subscribing to 'fancy living digest'.

stealing my mail, eh? you're lucky i don't report you to the authorities!

if you could have anything in the world right now, what would it be?

fancy livin', here we come!

i got it--let's get naked!

why don't we try being nice?

nice place you got here!

you just can't wait for me to die, can you?

i was born with glass bones and paper skin...

poor, poor man... if there is anything i can do for you...?

it does my heart good to con some class a suckers.

no, no--please don't hurt me!

the boy's eyes are bigger than his stomach

if you won't give me respect as a hero, maybe you'll give me respect as a villain

i am crossing over to the dark side

did someone say 'evil'?

nighty-night you old goat!

nighty-night--will you tuck me in?

it's gotten quite late. could we chat tomorrow?

it really is nice to be back out under the moon again.

what? what do you want? i'm... i'm busy right now, OK?

get out of here! scram!

i prefer to keep work and my personal time separate, so can you bother me some other time?

now more than ever, we must tread carefully.

it feels as though things are even more dangerous now than they were before.

um... good work today!

fancy seeing you awake.

i'm not going to stop you if you want to go watch the sparks fly, but you should take some precautions.

i'm just here for logistical support.

candidly, i'm a little worried about this mission.

victory is ours! bravo, everyone!

i'm so grateful for all your assistance!

could you join me for a moment?

i hope i get a chance to fight beside you again.

OK! i'm going to take him out!

you mean "ask him out," right?

how would we even recognize him?

ugh, this sounds like a real pain.

brute force is never the answer!

i'm really feelin' this music.

listenin' to this music makes me wanna get to dancin'.

i'm so relieved that she's doing better.

just imagine what would have happened if i'd gone with her!

now that i know the truth, i won't be deceived so easily again.

am i on the right track...?

how go your travels?

i just don't want to get my clothes dirty...

i can't believe we'd run into each other again after our first meeting was in such a romantic place...

could it be... are you the man of my dreams after all?!

i am too busy to be interested in anyone who doesn't share the feeling.

it's important to start things off on the right foot, after all.

welp, i guess that's over.

hey, stay sharp.

what are you waiting for?

hey, don’t you think it’s a little late to be making small talk?

that said, you haven’t changed at all.

but what have you been doing for all of this time?

as though you could sleep for that long, hmph.

anyway, i am glad to see you here.

do you really not remember?

playing dumb, eh?! nice try, but you cannot fool me!

get out of my way at once!

no matter--it is too late now.

just stay out of my way!

and who might you be?

i shall escort you out

why didn’t you say so in the first place?!

do not tell me you have forgotten me?

we have met numerous times, i’ll have you know.

ah, so many memories!

my mind is overflowing with nostalgia, my friend.

i must ask you to hear my plea.

i shall do you the courtesy of speaking bluntly.

how can you still protest?

that our paths have crossed is certainly the work of fate.

this is bigger than all of us, my friend.

i will aid you in any way i can, of course.

naturally, i shall help too!

our goal is the same.

that means our meeting was nothing short of destiny.

well? what’s the matter?

what did you say?!

n-nothing’s wrong. just leave me alone.

we meet again! small world.

i don’t care who you are! just lend me an ear!

ha! prepare to be jealous.

leave me be, commoner!

i’m trying to practice here!

well, if you’ll excuse me, i need to go save the world.

and somehow i got stuck with this dumb job.

ok, let’s get this over with.

ugh, where’s the sun? and the girls?

rain and stuff really sours my mood.

my life is a joke.

i don’t know who you are, or what kind of power you have... but it’s awesome!

i don’t know what kind of wizardry you used, but that’s incredible!

ugh, that place is so filthy and women free, it might as well be called a manfill.

anyway, i guess it’s time i went back in.

don’t get the wrong idea! i’m not slacking off.

i’m just checking to see if anything useful is lying around!

ah... i wasn’t sleeping. i wasn’t.

it’s getting so bad i can’t even take a walk anymore.

that’s life these days, i guess.

i feel less anxious with you around.

it’s a pretty long story--are you sure you want to hear it?

and that’s my story.

you want something? or are you just here to disappoint me again?

stand firm--you must!

i can’t stand constantly being driven off this way!

we can withstand any kind of hardship, so long as we are together.

while we are together, i fear nothing!

i’m happy just to be together with you.

i won’t allow any misfortune to befall you! i swear it!

whew. i was nervous for a minute there!

this is... incredible.

you have shown me something truly spectacular.

i guess it wasn’t meant to be...

gah! why is this happening to me?!

i’ll give them a fight they won’t forget!

don’t just stand there gawking! we got a real situation here!

hah! if you think i was in the slightest danger, you need to have your eyes checked.

hmph. i’ll get ‘em next time, for sure!

we’re all right... we should count ourselves lucky for that.

i’ll give you something to be nervous about!

i wish we could just go home...

hey! we’re not here for a chin wag! hurry up!

yeaaah, you! i’m talking to YOU!

come oooon, i’m not some creeper! i just wanna talk!

i just don’t understand your thought process here.

no, i’ll hire someone to do it for me. no need to get my hands dirty.

oh, you’re still here? i thought you left.

something feels off...

excuse me, i fear i may have gotten carried away.

nostalgia will do that to a person.

i get the feeling the truth is beyond my wildest imagination.

that was stupendous. i suppose i should have expected nothing less.

what’s the matter? come and get me!

okay, i admit you helped. i didn’t need it, so don’t expect any thanks.

i was fortunate to meet a kind soul like you.

hey, you! something on your mind?

now... let’s do this thing!

no luck! there’s nothing here!

oops! i forgot we just met.

thinking back on it, it’s a wonder either of us survived the trip...

say, not to pry, but... i have to ask. who are you supposed to be?

please let me sleep just a bit more.

words often fall meaningless when we try to describe tragic events of a certain magnitude.

that means you have good taste!

ok, ok, i’ve got this. greeting time.

hey! captain snoop! you want to get out of my personal space or what?

ever heard of the concept of a PRIVATE conversation?

i’m trying to have a decent gossip here!

oh my gosh, you’re just my type!

pleased to meet your... no, wait. pleased to MAKE your... acquaintance?

what’s going on? are you lost?

yeah, he’s definitely a master of [blank], but he’s also a master of weirding me out.

welcome! or that’s what i WOULD say... this is a pretty abnormal hour for official welcoming, though.

i don’t really have any welcome gossip.

guess you’d have to be a parent to understand.

i know it’s a little weird, but i just feel more confident over here.

the world is full of surprises... like you!

time to stop floofing around here.

did you want me to evaluate your fashion sense?

you probably wouldn’t have liked what i had to say anyway.

yeah, sorry, i don’t even know where to begin.

i need... grilled... salmon...

huh? me? i gotta rest sometime, don’t i?

great! you got the last of my free time with that.

perfect! you showed up at just the right time.

well, a deal’s a deal.

hmm? something the matter, buddy?

alright, just sit tight.

just be sure you don’t put yourself in a dangerous situation.

for some reason, i only seem to attract the worst.

oh, what’s a little rain?

i thought it was going to be clear skies today, must be a sign.

it’s time to break out the special goods!

a visitor? so deep in the forest?

ah, we meet again!

i trust you’re keeping well?

there’s definitely a secret lying in way--it’s just a matter of tracking it down.

well, do let me know if you change your mind.

it’s not too late for my [blank], right? right?!

we were minding our own business, when, wham!

i told you our luck would run out in five minutes flat.

you know, i’ve always liked the idea of going behind a waterfall.

i get nervous whenever it rains even a little...

well, i guess it can’t be helped.

have you decided to help me?

i just... can’t... i’m so scared...

please find out why this is happening!

thunder sure is scary, isn’t it?

some say that rumbling sound is the angry ranting of a dragon god!

i wonder if someone put it up there on purpose.

i can finally relax!

and the taste--like a dream!

that’s a lie as slippery as a banana peel.

i will take your life!

oh, sorry! i was talking to myself there.

you’d be lucky to leave there with your life.

you look pretty tough.

i can’t be risking my life...

funny running into you here.

oof, rain is the worst. it really makes me miss home.

what a weirdo.

why don’t you join us for dinner?

what should i cook for tonight’s dinner?

how’d you like to be rich... without having to work for it?

psst... c’mere. no, closer. closer.

hey, hey, simmer down. i’m not talking about anything illegal here.

whaddaya say to a little wager?

don’t come crying to me.

that’s the part that really gets a man’s heart racing!

couldn’t hurt to make some quick cash--right here, right now--am i right?

a man like you must have expenses.

all you’ve got to lose is your pride... and your money.

lady luck has no time for a man who won’t take any chances.

you must be tired from your long trip.

p-please don’t frighten me like that!

do you need something at this hour?

wh-wh-what?! there’s something on my face?!

staying up late can’t be great for your health.

it makes me nervous, but i can feel it in my bones.

you shouldn’t think twice to call on me whenever you need some help!

mind waiting just a bit longer?

please don’t tell anyone about this...

the two of us have been at odds for ages!

it’s already this late?!

i should finish up for today...

come by my place when the day is done.

but... i can’t help this anxious feeling.

but that story sounds too crazy to believe, don’t you think?

i need to think on it.

she’s still so small, too... poor thing...

geez, you’re indecisive, aren’t you?

are you satisfied?

don’t tell me you don’t know who i am?

no way, you’ve never heard of [blank], either?

are you kidding me?!

you must be lying--actually, i know you are!

i barely got away from that thing.

do not distract me from my job!

we each have something to hide, i suppose.

have you ever noticed how the darker it is, the more beautiful the light becomes?

maybe you’d like to stay a bit and chat?

it’s dangerous to wander out around here.

but that doesn’t mean it’s perfectly safe around here...

all we can do is hope.

you really don’t intend to go to [blank], do you?

saw me running around, huh?

i’m starting to wonder if that rumor was just a bunch of bunk...

what do you think? jealous, right?

i’m busy here. get lost!

whatever your deal is, just say it and be on your way!

don’t you get tired?

i would never think of doing that.

i’m thirty-five, single, and i LOVE jogging!

yeah, everyone says i’m tenacious as a tick. and i think some of them meant it in a nice way, too!

wanna hang out with me awhile?

pretty rough and tumble place...

but, first, a favor.

you were gone for so long, i started to fear the worst.

well, i just wanted an excuse to get close to you, y’know?

and i’ve been so, so worried...

i won’t put you in danger anymore!

are you trying to console me because i’ve been so heartsick over this?

you’re such a kind soul.

that--THAT’S AMAZING!

if the rest of the world knew this, it’d be absolute bedlam!

it’ll just be our little secret, right?

treat them tenderly as you would me.

all right, we’re done here!

care to join me later?

well! aren’t we greedy!

fine, you win. so headstrong!

i’ll just be waiting here, okay?

look, i feel like someone should tell you that you have kind of a sulky look about you.

you keep walking around looking all miserable, and you’ll never get a girl.

sorry about that. awfully condescending of me.

if you need something, do me a favor... ask someone else.

i doubt i could survive there, and i’m burly.

who ARE you?!

it’d be pretty uncouth of me to drop my end of the bargain.

but if you’re happy, then i’m happy!

i love everything about you! your cutely greedy side. your sassy, playfully rude side. your unexpectedly tough side...

i kind of knew you’d say that, but would it have killed you to let me finish the question?

at the very least, let me gaze after you until you disappear from my vision!

i mean, we were never actually dating, but still, it FELT like a dumping.

you again? i’m on my personal journey of learning and discovery, so it would be great if you could not disrupt it.

do you think you’re part of my destiny?

oh, is that how’s it’s going to be?

then i can stop wasting my time with you.

you don’t know? really?

i wonder if there really is someone out there for me...

i wish somebody had mentioned the crazy heat before i came all the way out here.

don’t mess this up, don’t mess this up...
