THESE GUYS ARE FULL OF IT.
WE'VE BEEN PUNKED.
>> IT IS PRETTY LAME.
I CAN'T BELIEVE GRANDPA WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS PLACE.
I KNOW THAT LOOK, BEN.
WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?

MAYBE THE WORLD'S BIGGEST BOOGER?
>> HA!
CAREFUL, DWEEB.
YOU'LL DROP IT.

I COULD LIFT THIS THING WITH 3 HANDS TIED BEHIND MY--
>> AAH!
>> OOPS.
>> AAH!
>> [GASP] >> OW!
WHAT WAS THAT FOR?
>> FOR TURNING ME INTO A CRIMINAL.
>> DON'T GET YOUR SHORTS IN A TWIST.
I'LL JUST PUT EVERYTHING BACK THE WAY IT WAS.

>> PFFFT!
>> WHAT WAS THAT?
>> MEGAWATT.
>> MEGA WHAT?
>> EXACTLY.
NORMALLY WRAPPED UP TIGHT INSIDE OF IT--THAT IS, UNTIL LAST
NIGHT.
SOME SAY IT MIGHT BE A BALL OF LIGHTNING COME ALIVE.
OTHERS THINK IT'S STATIC CLING RUN AMOK.
TOUGH TO SAY.
>> MAYBE IT'S AN ALIEN.
>> ALIEN?
THAT'S JUST PLAIN KOOKY TALK.
>> WHAT'S IT DOING?
>> IT EATS ELECTRICITY.
THE MORE IT GOBBLES, THE MORE POWERFUL IT GETS.
IT'S ALSO GOT A DANGEROUS SENSE OF HUMOR.
>> YOU LEFT THAT THING INSIDE A RUBBER-BAND BALL ALL THIS TIME?
ISN'T THAT KIND OF DANGEROUS?
>> NOT SO LONG AS PEOPLE MINDED THE SIGNS.
>> ALL RIGHT, WE DID IT.
WE'RE GUILTY.
>> SO MUCH FOR ADMITTING NOTHING.
>> WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THIS LATER, YOU TWO, BUT FOR
NOW, HOW DO WE STOP THIS THING, MR. MAYOR?
>> WHATCHA MEAN, "WE"?
YOU LET IT OUT.
YOU CATCH IT.
>> SHOULD WE TRY TO LURE IT OUT WITH SOME BATTERIES OR
SOMETHING?
>> AAH!
THAT'S NOT FUNNY.
IT'S JUST PAINFUL.
>> DON'T WORRY, GRANDPA.
I KNOW JUST THE HERO TO DEAL WITH A TROUBLEMAKER LIKE THIS.
>> WHY GO UPGRADE?
>> IT'S COMPLICATED.
YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND.
>> WATCH DIDN'T LET YOU CHANGE INTO WHAT YOU WANTED IT TO, DID
IT?
>> SHUT UP.
AAH!
>> HEE HEE HEE!
>> OK, TWINKLETOES, TIME TO GO HOME.
>> HEY, DOOFUS, WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON?
>> IS IT JUST ME, OR IS THERE A LOT OF EXCITEMENT TODAY?
>> HA HA HA!
>> OH, THAT'S NEW.
NOT SO FUNNY NOW, IS IT?
>> HA HA HA!
>> PBBBT!
>> AAH!
DO NOT TOUCH ME, ELECTRICAL GUY, WHEN YOU'RE MADE OF LIVING
METAL.
>> HOW ARE WE GONNA GROUND THAT ELECTRIC DEVIL?
>> GRANDPA, YOU'RE A GENIUS.
>> THANK YOU, GWEN.
WHY?
>> THAT'S IT.
I'M PULLING THE PLUG ON THIS GUY'S PRANKS.
HEY, SPARKY, CATCH.
>> HA HA HA!
>> OK, SO THAT WASN'T THE BEST IDEA.
[TRUCK HORN HONKS] [TIRES SQUEAL]
>> GRANDPA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
>> GIVING THESE SPARKLERS A SCIENCE LESSON THEY WON'T
FORGET.
>> HA HA HA!
>> HEY, MEGAWEIRDS, COME AND GET US.
>> WHAT HAPPENED?
>> WE JUST USED THE BIGGEST THERMOMETER AS A LIGHTNING ROD.
WHO NEEDS AN ALIEN SUPERHERO WHEN YOU'VE GOT GOOD
OLD-FASHIONED BRAINPOWER?
>> OF COURSE, THE GROUND IS BASICALLY JUST ONE BIG
CONDUCTOR.
>> WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
>> OH, NO.
IT MEANS THE MEGAWATTS ARE JUST ZIPPING AROUND UNDERGROUND
UNTIL THEY FIND SOME WAY TO GET BACK TO THE SURFACE.
[RINGING] >> THEY'RE IN THE UNDERGROUND
PHONE LINES.
[RINGING] >> HA HA HA!
>> UH-OH.
NOW THEY REALLY DID IT.
>> BEN TENNYSON, DON'T SAY A WORD.
>> HEY, I'M JUST GLAD I WASN'T THE ONE WHO SCREWED UP THIS
TIME.
[CRASH] >> HA HA HA HA!
>> EVERYBODY MOVE!
>> THERE GOES THE WORLD'S LARGEST TOOTHPICKS.
OH, THE HUMANITY.
>> HA HA HA!
>> THOSE CREEPS' IDEA OF GOOD, CLEAN FUN IS GONNA HAVE US ALL
PUSHING UP DAISIES.
>> DON'T JUST STAND THERE, DOOFUS.
DIAL UP SOME HELP.
>> DUH, LIKE I HAVEN'T BEEN TRYING?
>> [CHATTERING] >> UH, WHERE'D THEY GO?
>> I DON'T KNOW, BUT I DON'T THINK IT'S GOOD.
[EXPLOSIONS] >> WELL, THERE'S SOMETHING YOU
DON'T SEE EVERY DAY.
THEY BROUGHT THAT PLANETARIUM EXHIBIT TO LIFE.
>> COME ON.
WE'LL HEAD IT OFF IN THE-- OH, MY.
>> "U AM LAME"?
THAT'S WEAK.
>> DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE GRAMMAR AND THE SPELLING.
>> I RECKON THEY'LL HEAD FOR THE BIG HYDROELECTRIC DAM TO POWER
UP.
AFTER THAT THEY'LL JUST WIPE OUT THE NEXT TOWN, AND SO ON AND SO
ON.
THEY THINK IT'S FUNNY.
YUP, MEGAWATT'S GOT A REAL TWISTED SENSE OF HUMOR.
>> ARE YOU THINKING WHAT I'M THINKING?
>> YEAH.
BEAT THOSE PRANKSTERS AT THEIR OWN GAME.
>> THIS IS YOUR ONLY WARNING.
KNOCK OFF THE FUNNY BUSINESS, OR I'LL FRY YOUR TWINKLING BUTTS.
HA HA HA!
BETTER SEAL THAT UP FAST.
>> HEY, MEGAWITS!
YOU WANT TO SEE SOMETHING REALLY FUNNY?
YOU GUYS ARE ALL WET.
>> WHAT'S THE MATTER?
CAN'T TAKE A JOKE?
YOU REALLY GOT BURNED WITH THAT ONE.
YOU GUYS SHOULD REALLY QUIT WHILE YOU'RE BEHIND.
MISSED ME, DOOFUS.
[KISS KISS] >> BEN DID IT!
THEY TOOK THE BAIT.
>> [CHATTERING] >> NAH, NAH.
PFFT!
>> NICE TOUCH, USING THE FISH BOWL.
WITH NONCONDUCTIVE GLASS, SEALED UP TIGHT, SPARKY AND HIS PALS
WON'T BE GOING ANYWHERE.
>> ONCE AGAIN, SCIENCE SAVES THE DAY.
>> WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM SCIENCE FICTION.
>> YOU FOLKS DONE RIGHT BY US.
>> HOPE THIS ADVENTURE WASN'T A BIG SETBACK FOR SPARKSVILLE.
>> MORE LIKE A GIANT STEP FORWARD.
WHAT WITH OUR NEW ATTRACTION, SOON WE'LL BE RAKING THEM IN.
BIGGEST LIGHT BULB.
IT'LL BE A HUMDINGER...
SO LONG AS FOLKS MIND THE SIGNS.
>> I THINK I'M PRANKED OUT FOR A WHILE.
>> THERE IS A TIME AND A PLACE FOR A PRACTICAL JOKE.
BUT FUNNY IS FUNNY, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S NOT ON YOU.
HA HA HA!
