0:00:540:01:00

-Hey, DW!

-Hey...

0:01:000:01:03

'We interrupt this episode to bring you a special news bulletin.'

0:01:080:01:11

I'm here in downtown Elwood City,

0:01:110:01:14

where widespread panic has caused a mess exodus.

0:01:140:01:17

He's dangerous! Run for your lives!

0:01:170:01:20

Excuse me, Miss. Who or what are you running from?

0:01:200:01:23

You don't wanna know.

0:01:230:01:25

Sir, can you describe this creature?

0:01:250:01:28

He's horrible. He spits fire and he has these big sharp claws...

0:01:280:01:32

And fangs. Don't forget the fangs.

0:01:320:01:35

-Then you've actually seen him.

-Er, no, somebody told us about him.

0:01:350:01:40

It's gotta be true, right? I sure don't wanna find out from... Oh, no!

0:01:400:01:45

He's coming. Run!

0:01:450:01:47

Hey, where did everybody go?

0:01:510:01:53

I just wanted to play checkers.

0:01:530:01:55

-DW!

-Yey!

0:01:580:02:01

OK, everybody, very exciting news today.

0:02:060:02:09

A new inter-scholastic sports league has asked to compete,

0:02:090:02:14

which means one of you lucky students will get the privilege

0:02:140:02:18

of representing our school in what I consider

0:02:180:02:21

the most thrilling sport ever devised by mankind...

0:02:210:02:25

Checkers!

0:02:250:02:26

I know. It seems too good to be true, doesn't it?

0:02:260:02:29

I too was speechless when I heard the news. Any volunteers?

0:02:290:02:33

Hey, you like checkers. Why not volunteer?

0:02:330:02:36

I don't know if I'm good enough. I'm kind of...average.

0:02:360:02:40

You always beat me.

0:02:400:02:42

Come on. Raise your hand.

0:02:420:02:45

OTHERS: Come on, Brain!

0:02:450:02:47

-What?

-Well, Alan, it looks like you're the favourite.

0:02:470:02:50

Do you want to volunteer?

0:02:500:02:52

CHANTING Brain! Brain! Brain! Brain!

0:02:520:02:55

Do I have to?

0:02:550:02:57

I mean, checkers is kind of boring.

0:02:570:02:59

It's not really challenging, like, let's say, chess.

0:02:590:03:04

OK, OK, I'll do it.

0:03:040:03:07

Brain is so conceited. "Boring," he says. "Not challenging."

0:03:070:03:11

-Who does he think he is?

-Everybody thought it was boring.

0:03:110:03:15

-Nobody raised their hand.

-Except you.

0:03:150:03:18

It's different with us. We're not conceited.

0:03:180:03:21

Francine's right. Someone should go up against him

0:03:210:03:24

to prove he's not as special as he thinks he is.

0:03:240:03:27

Can you believe Brain today?

0:03:270:03:30

We were just talking about it.

0:03:300:03:32

-Arthur's gonna challenge him.

-Huh?

0:03:320:03:35

-Didn't Buster just say you raised your hand?

-Not scared, are you?

0:03:350:03:39

No, I'm not scared. I've beaten Brain at checkers before.

0:03:390:03:43

THEY ALL GASP

0:03:430:03:45

Brain's gonna get it!

0:03:450:03:47

Do it, Arthur. Prove there's something average kids can win at.

0:03:470:03:52

CHANTING Arthur! Arthur! Arthur! Arthur!

0:03:520:03:55

And then they started chanting my name.

0:03:550:03:58

-What's so funny?

-You beat Brain in something?

0:03:580:04:02

-I'd like to see that.

-I think it's great, honey.

0:04:020:04:06

Just keep it in perspective.

0:04:060:04:08

Sure.

0:04:080:04:09

CHANTING Arthur! Arthur! Arthur! Arthur!

0:04:090:04:13

Arthur! Arthur! Arthur! Arthur!

0:04:130:04:17

Arthur! Arthur!

0:04:180:04:19

CRASH!

0:04:190:04:21

Are you OK?

0:04:210:04:23

Try getting OFF the bike before parking it.

0:04:230:04:26

Oh-h! I was just, er...thinking about my chequer strategy.

0:04:260:04:31

Oh, of course. I'm really glad you decided to enter.

0:04:310:04:36

I have a feeling you're gonna place a really strong second.

0:04:360:04:39

It's only me versus Brain, Buster.

0:04:390:04:42

I know.

0:04:420:04:44

Pep rally before the first checkers play-off match after school!

0:04:440:04:48

Come support Arthur E before the big game.

0:04:480:04:51

Wow! A pep rally! I've never had one of those before.

0:04:510:04:55

What do you think it'll be like?

0:04:550:04:57

This is weird.

0:04:580:05:00

So we want some conceited know-it-all representing us at checkers?

0:05:000:05:04

ALL: No!

0:05:040:05:06

Who do we want?

0:05:060:05:07

ALL: Arthur!

0:05:070:05:08

Why do we want him?

0:05:080:05:10

ALL: He's average!

0:05:100:05:11

-Do we have to call Brain names?

-It's sports, Arthur.

0:05:110:05:15

OK, everybody. Hold up your Ban Brain signs.

0:05:150:05:21

Hi, Arthur. I'm Muffy Crosswire with the Muffy Report.

0:05:210:05:25

Any words for our internet audience?

0:05:250:05:27

Internet audience?

0:05:270:05:28

I'm starting a website for average kids

0:05:280:05:31

who aren't fortunate enough to be here in person

0:05:310:05:34

-to see Mr Conceited get what's finally coming to him.

-Mr Conceited?

0:05:340:05:39

Can we just call him "Brain"?

0:05:390:05:41

CHANTING A Is For Average! A Is For Average!

0:05:410:05:45

A Is For Average! A Is For Average!

0:05:450:05:48

I'm here at the first of three play-off matches

0:05:480:05:52

to determine Lakewood Elementary's representative

0:05:520:05:55

in the chequer Olympics.

0:05:550:05:56

With me is Francine Frensky,

0:05:560:05:58

a completely average kid, picked at random from the audience.

0:05:580:06:03

Francine, what is your perspective on this game?

0:06:030:06:07

Brain thinks he's better than the rest of us.

0:06:070:06:10

-Let's see how bored he is when he loses.

-So true!

0:06:100:06:13

It looks like Arthur's about to make his first move.

0:06:130:06:17

Go, Arthur!

0:06:180:06:20

OTHERS: Ssshh!

0:06:200:06:22

ALL: Yey!

0:06:230:06:26

Yey!

0:06:280:06:30

You show 'em, Arthur!

0:06:320:06:33

It's been a thrilling 15 minutes and it looks like we're nearing the end.

0:06:340:06:39

-How's it going, Miss Frensky?

-I can't see the board from here,

0:06:390:06:43

but I'm sure Arthur's winning.

0:06:430:06:46

A Is For Average! >

0:06:460:06:48

Quiet already!

0:06:480:06:50

THEY GASP

0:06:500:06:51

And Alan is the winner.

0:06:560:06:58

Yey!

0:07:040:07:06

It's OK, Arthur. There are two matches tomorrow.

0:07:070:07:11

-If you win those...

-I couldn't concentrate with...

-Arthur!

0:07:110:07:15

Where are you going?

0:07:150:07:16

There's the post-game pep rally.

0:07:160:07:18

Er, thanks, everybody, for coming out and supporting me,

0:07:200:07:24

and I'm sorry I lost this time and, er...

0:07:240:07:28

..but there's still two matches tomorrow and, er...

0:07:310:07:35

OK, Francine. I mean, let's hear it for game number two!

0:07:350:07:40

Yey!

0:07:400:07:42

And game number three!

0:07:420:07:44

And the interscholastics!

0:07:460:07:49

Yey!

0:07:490:07:51

And then...then...

0:07:520:07:55

aarrggh!

0:07:550:07:56

THEY GASP

0:07:590:08:01

What was that?

0:08:010:08:02

Will you just get off my back?!

0:08:020:08:04

Why are you angry at us? We're the ones who've been supporting you.

0:08:040:08:08

There are lots of other average kids we could have picked for this.

0:08:080:08:12

Well, thanks for your help,

0:08:120:08:14

but I think it's better if I do this on my own.

0:08:140:08:17

PHONE RINGS

0:08:200:08:23

Hello?

0:08:260:08:27

'Have you seen Muffy's website?'

0:08:270:08:29

You think you know a person,

0:08:310:08:33

but today the poor innocent students of Lakewood Elementary

0:08:330:08:37

found out their beloved checkers favourite was far different

0:08:370:08:41

than what he presented himself to be. This kid is angry.

0:08:410:08:45

And then...then...

0:08:450:08:47

aarrggh!

0:08:470:08:49

Yikes!

0:08:490:08:51

I wouldn't like to meet that in a dark alley. Let's see that again.

0:08:510:08:56

Aarrggh!

0:08:560:08:58

Do we really want our beloved elementary school

0:08:580:09:02

represented in checkers by an angry lunatic?

0:09:020:09:05

I ask purely as an impartial journalist.

0:09:050:09:07

It is for you, the student body, to decide.

0:09:070:09:11

Aarrggh!

0:09:110:09:14

'Aarrggh! Aarrggh!'

0:09:140:09:17

What are you guys doing?

0:09:200:09:23

-Why do you ask? Because you're angry.

-Angry.

0:09:230:09:27

I'm not angry!

0:09:270:09:29

-Well, what would you call it?

-Angry.

0:09:290:09:32

Please don't hurt me!

0:09:320:09:34

Stop passing these out.

0:09:340:09:36

I told you yesterday I don't want any more pep rallies.

0:09:360:09:41

Don't worry, Mr Hyde, it's not for you.

0:09:410:09:44

"A is for angry, B is for Brains.

0:09:440:09:47

"Pep rally for Brains before the game"!

0:09:470:09:50

I thought you said he was conceited!

0:09:500:09:53

Wow! Angry AND mean. I think you need to chill out!

0:09:530:09:57

Why are you doing this?

0:10:000:10:02

Is it because I asked you guys to leave me alone yesterday?

0:10:020:10:06

It wasn't "asking". Brain may be conceited, but at least he's nice.

0:10:060:10:10

We just care about the integrity of checkers.

0:10:100:10:13

Aarrggh!

0:10:130:10:16

Hey, man, I wanna congratulate you.

0:10:170:10:19

It took me years to get scary. You did it overnight.

0:10:190:10:23

And let the second play-off match begin.

0:10:300:10:33

You know what? I concede!

0:10:390:10:41

Is it my turn?

0:10:460:10:47

People get a little crazy sometimes when it comes to competition.

0:10:480:10:52

Don't take it to heart.

0:10:520:10:54

Maybe I deserved it.

0:10:540:10:56

I didn't try and stop them putting down Brain

0:10:560:10:59

when they were on my side.

0:10:590:11:01

You shouldn't quit something you love

0:11:010:11:04

just because of what other people think.

0:11:040:11:06

I didn't love it. It's checkers.

0:11:060:11:09

I just thought it would be fun.

0:11:090:11:11

It's not fun any more.

0:11:110:11:13

DOORBELL

0:11:130:11:14

-Francine?

-Wanna go to the interscholastics for us?

0:11:160:11:19

-Huh?

-Brain conceded too.

0:11:190:11:22

He did? Why?

0:11:220:11:24

-Pep rallies.

-Ah.

0:11:240:11:26

Listen, I'm sorry Muffy and I got a little crazy.

0:11:260:11:29

It's just cos you hurt our feelings.

0:11:290:11:32

We were forgetting that maybe we hurt yours...and Brain's.

0:11:320:11:36

Well, thanks for the apology,

0:11:360:11:39

but I wanna play checkers for fun right now.

0:11:390:11:41

Oh, OK. But who are we going to get, then?

0:11:410:11:46

I mean, I'm terrible at board games.

0:11:460:11:49

I don't see why I'm disqualified from the checkers interscholastics

0:11:500:11:54

just because I'm a dork.

0:11:540:11:56

M is for Muffy! M is for Modest.

0:11:560:12:00

Checkers is a quiet game, Muffy.

0:12:000:12:02

The judges think it would be better if you represent the school alone.

0:12:020:12:06

These interscholastic judges are SO uptight!

0:12:080:12:11

Check my website for how uptight judges are destroying this sport.

-Hey!

0:12:320:12:38
