-# And I say, hey

-# Hey

# What a wonderful kind of day

# If you could learn to work and play

# And get along with each other

# You've got to listen to your heart

# Listen to the beat Listen to the rhythm

# Rhythm of the street Open up your eyes

# Open up your ears Get together and make things better

# By working together

# It's a simple message

# And it comes from the heart

# Oh, believe in yourself

# For that's the place to start

-# And I say, hey

-# Hey

# What a wonderful kind of day

# If you learn to work and play

-# And get along with each other

-# Hey

-# What a wonderful kind of day

-# Hey

-# What a wonderful kind of day #

-# Hey #

Hey, DW!

-Hey!

-Whoaaaaa!

Oh, Francine, let's have our fortunes told!

Come in. Come in, have your fortune told.

OK, me first.

I see...I see...

..something...untimely.

Untimely? That sounds interesting.

An untimely meeting with a stranger.

I don't know any strangers.

I see...

..lunch.

I see lunch with a stranger.

Hey, guys, mind if we hang out and have our lunch with you?

Lunch with a stranger,

just like you predicted!

Buster's not a stranger.

-That's true, but he is stranger than anyone

-I

-know.

MacFrensky.

Aaargh!

Our Student of the Month competition is almost complete.

Francine is in the lead.

And I thought you were wasting your time

coaching the second graders in softball.

It was fun.

Whispering to friends, however, is one way to lose points.

Remember, the Student of the Month will be awarded a special prize.

Lunch with local weatherman, Thunder McDuff.

Oh, he's so dreamy!

And the winner can choose one friend to bring along.

Prunella's prediction.

-This is it, lunch with a stranger!

-Yeah!

Alan, you're late. Your tardiness will cost you five points.

Sorry. Miss Lemon needed help changing a tyre in the parking lot.

Then I found a wallet with lots of money in it,

-so I turned it in at the office.

-Very responsible, Alan.

Here's my science project. I know it's not due for 10 days.

It's a miniature ecosystem.

It shows how even the plainest object

can be indispensable to countless living things.

Flat tyre, returned lost property,

intellectual curiosity, moral wisdom.

35 points.

It's not fair. That lunch with Thunder McDuff was mine.

Lost wallet? Flat tyre?

Please! Who doesn't have roadside service these days?

-I think the fix is in.

-Aah!

Well, there's nothing I can do now.

-Take me to your leader!

-Wow!

The eyes must be LEDs controlled by an integrated microcircuit.

Surrender, Earthling.

Brain sure seems to like that toy, doesn't he?

Yeah. So?

Well, what if it were to disappear

and it turned out that Brain had taken it?

Then he'd lose points for Student of the Month.

But Brain would never do that.

Not on his own, no.

But if someone put it in his backpack.

But that's stealing.

Buster would get it back. It's more like moving.

What do you say?

OK, but we make sure Buster gets his toy back.

Resistance is futile!

Surrender to your new king!

I'll distract them.

Then, when the crowd clears, you grab the alien.

Wait, wait, Muffy. It just doesn't feel right.

Right? Is it right that Brains sneaks it at the last minute

-to get

-your

-prize?

Alright.

Better hurry up, Brain. Mr Ratburn might subtract points

if you're late.

Come on, we gotta go.

Unhand me, Earthling!

Eurgh!

Class, I want you all to take out your world history books

and turn to page 129.

Now, what do we remember about...

..Meso-potamia?

Resistance is futile!

That sounds like my alien.

Surrender, Earthling. I am your new king.

You took my alien.

Er, er, I...

You may retrieve it after school, Buster.

Alan, that will be minus 10 points for disrupting class.

And another 25 for taking another student's possession.

Since this is the last day of the month,

our Student of the Month will be Francine.

Congratulations.

Yay!

CLASS CHEERS

We have to think about how we're going to dress

-for lunch with Thunder.

-We shouldn't have done this.

What? All we did was move a toy.

But we got Brain in trouble.

Besides, what if we get caught?

Will you relax? We're not going to get caught.

How do you know? You can't see the future.

OK, I can't see the future but I know someone who can.

I see it clearly.

You will remain Student of the Month

until...

..the moon...until the moon

is...is blotted out

in a single swallow.

What does that mean?

It means it's never going to happen. Right, Prunella?

Look, no-one can swallow the moon. It's enormous.

So relax, you're safe.

Francine? Could you help us out?

We were thinking. You're a great Student of the Month

but what happened to Brain yesterday wasn't fair.

He wouldn't steal someone else's toy.

-We wanna find out what really happened.

-Do you wanna help?

Tell them what you did, Earthling!

Is that an alien I see before me

or are you just an invader of my mind?

Are you OK?

Oh, er, sorry. I'm just kind of tired, I guess.

Gotta go!

Arthur and Buster know!

Francine, you're worrying again. Remember what Prunella said.

They don't believe Brain took the toy. They wanna investigate.

-Gosh, if they find out what you did, you're in big trouble.

-No, Muffy.

-We're

-both

-in big trouble.

-We need to do something.

-Relax.

I have an idea.

We have to make Arthur and Buster look like they can't be trusted.

That way, if they accuse you of anything, no-one will believe them.

Us, Muffy. We did this together.

Ssh, we're supposed to be asleep.

There's a spelling test on Monday.

What if it looked like Arthur and Buster were cheating?

Oh, I don't know. This is getting out of control.

Francine, we can't turn back now.

This will be the last time, I promise.

We can tape cheat sheets to the inside of their desks.

It's that ink from the alien.

It won't come off.

Out darn spot, I say!

That ink will never come out, Francine.

It's not of this world.

But it's so gross. No!

No! No!

-Wake up, Francine! Wake up!

-No!

You were washing your hands in your sleep and shouting.

I'm feeling guilty about doing this to Buster and Arthur.

I don't like this any more than you do, but it has to be done.

SCHOOL BELL RINGS

Remember, we have a spelling test after lunch.

-Go! Now's your chance.

-What if I get caught?

Remember what Prunella said - you're not gonna get caught.

I wonder if my toy could've climbed into Brains' bag

-using his suction-cup feet?

-Or maybe someone put it there.

-Hiya, fellas.

-Muffy?

Do you think someone put my toy in Brains' bag on purpose?

What?! Of course not!

Who would do something so cold and cruel?

Mm, my favourite.

What is that?

It's a moon cake. The best dessert known to this galaxy.

-A moon cake?

-Careful, Buster, you could choke.

'Until the moon is blotted out

'in a single swallow.'

The moon. A single swallow!

Buster, no!

Sorry. Next time I'll save you a piece.

Where's Francine? I need to find Francine.

Francine! Francine, it wasn't real

what Prunella said about the moon being swallowed up.

Muffy, slow down.

Prunella meant Buster's moon cake.

He swallowed it in one gulp.

Francine, we're going to get caught.

GASPS

Maybe there's still time to take back those cheat sheets.

SCHOOL BELL RINGS

The next word is criminal.

Criminal.

A criminal is someone who breaks the law.

Buster, what's this under your desk?

Nothing.

I mean, er, I don't know.

Is this a cheat sheet?

(GASPS)

Confess, Earthling!

(GASPS)

Buster, cheating is a very serious thing.

Mr Ratburn?

I need to talk to you.

Well, truth will out, as the bard says.

It's good you girls came forward.

So, Brain will just be made Student of the Month

and we won't get any punishment?

Oh, I never said that.

Enforced community service in an infringement on my rights.

But I thought a court battle would be drawn out and expensive.

Hey, Muffy, it's time to go.

Can I quickly wash up?

I can't let Thunder McDuff see me all dirty like this.

-Thanks for inviting her, Brain.

-Sure you don't wanna come?

Nah, I'll help the second graders with softball practice

-when I'm finished.

-You won't get any points for it.

The contest is over.

Points, schmoints. I'm just doing it because it's fun.
