0:00:59 > 0:01:03- Hey, DW!- Hey!
0:01:08 > 0:01:16Francine once tried to break the world hand-walking record.
0:01:16 > 0:01:22- She did everything on her hands. - Arthur, pass it!
0:01:27 > 0:01:36And once, she decided the best time to practise was on the roof at dawn.
0:01:36 > 0:01:43WOMAN: The building's collapsing! MAN: No, it's drums!
0:01:45 > 0:01:49That only lasted one day.
0:01:49 > 0:01:56Then she painted a life-size elephant...in her bedroom!
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Francine!
0:01:59 > 0:02:03Not bad. Accurate proportions.
0:02:03 > 0:02:11But last week Francine did something that nobody could believe.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33Hey! I'm on YOUR team!
0:02:42 > 0:02:49- Yes! Cheer up, we're doing great. - WE? YOU do everything!
0:02:49 > 0:02:57- I'll give you the puck if you want to lose!- You're so rude!
0:02:57 > 0:03:01I guess the truth hurts.
0:03:04 > 0:03:09- Muffy, shoot!- No! Pass it to me!
0:03:14 > 0:03:18CHEERING
0:03:20 > 0:03:24We lost!
0:03:24 > 0:03:27- Hope you're happy, Arthur.- Why me?
0:03:27 > 0:03:35You told Muffy to shoot. She's the worst player ever.
0:03:35 > 0:03:42Lucky we've one more play-off game. ..Where's Muffy?
0:03:44 > 0:03:54- Wait up!- Maybe I'd play better if you LET me play! It's no fun!
0:03:54 > 0:04:03- You're like a poke in the eye!- If you don't know I'm nice, you're a dope!
0:04:03 > 0:04:11I AM?! I'll bet you this Princess Peach watch that is always admired
0:04:11 > 0:04:16- that you can't be nice for a week! - I bet I can!
0:04:16 > 0:04:24OK. You have to be pleasant for one week AND you can't tell anyone why.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29They won't even notice a difference!
0:04:32 > 0:04:38- Where did you get that weird sweater?- My aunt.
0:04:38 > 0:04:44My other sweater's dirty so I have to wear it.
0:04:44 > 0:04:53- Oh-oh. Here's Francine. You'll never hear the end of it!- That sweater...
0:04:53 > 0:04:58- A-hem!- Um...
0:04:58 > 0:05:04- WATCH BEEPS What about it, Francine?- It's nice.
0:05:12 > 0:05:21- Two men in scoring position. Who's up?- I am.- Buster, I'll bat!
0:05:21 > 0:05:29- Unless you'd rather bat! You look a bit tired.- I'm fine. Are YOU OK?
0:05:29 > 0:05:32Yes. Thank you for asking.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39Hey! You have to see this.
0:05:40 > 0:05:45What's she doing?
0:05:45 > 0:05:49OK. Now you try it.
0:05:53 > 0:06:02- Muffy! Can't you do anything... wrong? That was near perfect.- Weird!
0:06:02 > 0:06:10- Anybody noticed a difference?- Yeah, she replaced the ball she threw away.
0:06:10 > 0:06:16And she replaced a glass of juice she drank last summer!
0:06:16 > 0:06:24- My good pants!- Sorry. Am I still invited over for dinner?
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Rrr... Yes!
0:06:30 > 0:06:34She ripped my good pants!
0:06:34 > 0:06:40- Isn't this brick durable? - I'll be over at 5.30.
0:06:40 > 0:06:48Three days, three hours and 32 minutes left. Wanna call it off?
0:06:48 > 0:06:53No! Just take care of MY watch!
0:07:02 > 0:07:07- A-hem! - Father, let ME help with those.
0:07:07 > 0:07:15- Who said that?- Francine, you have a guest and you wear ripped pants?
0:07:15 > 0:07:20Yeah? Well, YOUR clothes...
0:07:20 > 0:07:24are great. Take me shopping one day.
0:07:24 > 0:07:29Finally, you display some taste!
0:07:32 > 0:07:36Francine's friendly, helpful, pleasant.
0:07:36 > 0:07:43- Arthur, I'm scared!- We all are! ..What are you doing?
0:07:43 > 0:07:49Guys, this behaviour is no good for Francine.
0:07:49 > 0:07:58If someone with Francine's temper holds it in, the pressure builds.
0:07:58 > 0:08:04At some point, the pressure will be too much.
0:08:04 > 0:08:09We've got to help her before she pops!
0:08:09 > 0:08:16- How?- We must make her really lose her temper.
0:08:17 > 0:08:22Miss THIS and Francine will go nuts!
0:08:25 > 0:08:34- We did it. She's going to scream. - I guess the sun was in your eyes.
0:08:35 > 0:08:40- Francine, we bought you a soda. - Cherry?!
0:08:40 > 0:08:49You know I don't like cherry! BUT perhaps I haven't given it a chance.
0:08:57 > 0:09:06- Francine, Binky Barnes said he could beat you at any sport!- He did?
0:09:06 > 0:09:12- Aren't you mad?- Aren't you going to beat him at a game?
0:09:12 > 0:09:19Perhaps he's boasting because he's insecure...or he's been practising.
0:09:19 > 0:09:28- We tried.- With all that pressure building, she's gonna pop.- Any time!
0:09:29 > 0:09:33Muffy, what's wrong with Francine?
0:09:33 > 0:09:43- We're worried she might pop.- She'll be her normal, pushy self tomorrow.
0:09:43 > 0:09:51- Right after the play-off game? - I didn't consider the hockey game!
0:09:55 > 0:10:01- Why didn't you steal the ball? - Too rude.
0:10:05 > 0:10:10Oops! Excuse me.
0:10:12 > 0:10:20- Francine, distract the goalie! Insult him!- I'd hurt his feelings.
0:10:20 > 0:10:25Good shot, Sue Ellen. You guys play well!
0:10:28 > 0:10:36- Keeper, you haven't scored a goal all season.- No...- Take a shot.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40- Francine!- Just trying to be nice.
0:10:43 > 0:10:52- Francine, only 37 minutes left. You win.- I can last 37 more minutes!
0:10:52 > 0:10:56And everyone plays well if I'm nice.
0:10:56 > 0:11:03Including the other team! Here's the watch. Now get mean!
0:11:03 > 0:11:09Thank you but I feel I should last the final... OOH!
0:11:21 > 0:11:24MUFFY!
0:11:33 > 0:11:42- The old Francine's back!- And she let someone score!- So her head won't pop?
0:11:42 > 0:11:50- Glad you're back to normal. You were getting quite boring.- Me? Boring?
0:11:50 > 0:11:54- If you think I'm boring...- Francine!
0:11:54 > 0:11:59Let's tell Binky to buy me a new watch.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04Did you hear? Arthur gleeps stuff.
0:12:04 > 0:12:10- Arthur gleeps beans.- What?
0:12:13 > 0:12:19- Arthur keeps bees. - Arthur's sweet on Francine!
0:12:19 > 0:12:23Arthur eats fancy Spam!
0:12:23 > 0:12:29Did you hear? Arthur gleeps Spam. He's tough.
0:12:29 > 0:12:34Arthur gleeps stuff! ..Oops.
0:12:34 > 0:12:42- Mostly you don't know how stories get started, but- I- started this one!
0:12:55 > 0:13:05Let's get a seat before there's no place left except... Oh-oh!
0:13:05 > 0:13:09The Tough Customer table!
0:13:24 > 0:13:30- Hi, Binky.- Huh? Oh, hi. What are you doing here?
0:13:30 > 0:13:37Binky, who's your friend? He looks like a goofus.
0:13:37 > 0:13:43- I'm not a goofus.- I bet he never skipped a lulu.- A what?
0:13:44 > 0:13:52- I bet he never pulled a fizzer. - Or gleeped anything.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56Arthur's gleeped more than you have!
0:13:57 > 0:14:02- You have?- Yeah...I guess so.
0:14:02 > 0:14:07He's the world's greatest gleeper!
0:14:07 > 0:14:14- Sorry, I didn't know. - Buster, what does gleep mean?
0:14:14 > 0:14:18I don't know, but it must be tough.
0:14:18 > 0:14:27- "Gleep - slang term meaning purloin, filch, rifle..." Steal!- STEAL?!
0:14:27 > 0:14:32It's not like you really stole anything.
0:14:32 > 0:14:40- But what if everybody THINKS I did. - How would they find out? ..Oh-oh!
0:14:40 > 0:14:47Hey, Arthur, we want to talk to you at our headquarters.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52We can take our baseball cards over there.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56- The rabbit stays!- Hmm?
0:14:56 > 0:15:03- What you said at lunch... About gleeping stuff...- More than us!
0:15:03 > 0:15:08We want to make you a Tough Customer.
0:15:08 > 0:15:13Inaugurate you into our society, like.
0:15:13 > 0:15:21- A Tough Customer? Me? - Sure. You've gleeped lots of stuff!
0:15:21 > 0:15:27Yeah. Is it true you gleeped Mr Haney's tie?
0:15:27 > 0:15:34Er, to get on with the ceremony... Isn't anybody listening?
0:15:34 > 0:15:39Let's split. Recess is over.
0:15:39 > 0:15:43Everybody's treating me different.
0:15:43 > 0:15:49- Arthur, you're imagining things. - Oh, excuse me.
0:15:49 > 0:15:55It's all the money I have, Arthur. Don't hurt me!
0:15:59 > 0:16:02Gee, thanks...SIR.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Probably just a coincidence.
0:16:10 > 0:16:16First choice, the toughest kid in the school - Arthur.
0:16:16 > 0:16:21Huh? ARTHUR LAUGHS NERVOUSLY
0:16:21 > 0:16:30- Funny. Why Arthur?- Because Arthur's the biggest gleeper in school.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33< Francine!
0:16:33 > 0:16:38- He breaks through. They can't stop him!- Arthur!
0:16:38 > 0:16:43Binky said you were a gleeper!
0:16:43 > 0:16:48- So what? - You're not the gleeping type.
0:16:48 > 0:16:56I'll have you know I've gleeped lots of stuff. ..Right, Molly?
0:16:57 > 0:17:05Arthur... If I had... Gleeped?! I never want to speak to you again!
0:17:05 > 0:17:11Goes to show who your REAL friends are, Art.
0:17:11 > 0:17:16Arthur, you gleeped Mr Ratburn's socks.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20I heard they were full of holes.
0:17:20 > 0:17:27- Actually...- Mr Ratburn wouldn't wear socks with holes.
0:17:27 > 0:17:32He's an upstanding kinda guy. ..Hey!
0:17:42 > 0:17:50How did you get them off while he was wearing them? That impresses me.
0:17:50 > 0:17:56- I never... - Tell anyone your gleeping secrets?
0:17:56 > 0:18:03Glad you're having fun with your new friends, Arthur!
0:18:03 > 0:18:10I didn't know you were interested in meditation.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14I was just thinking. Mrs McGrady...
0:18:14 > 0:18:19- Can I ask you a question?- Shoot.
0:18:19 > 0:18:27Say you went along with it when somebody said you did a bad thing.
0:18:27 > 0:18:35Is it OK not exactly to say you did it, but not to say you didn't do it?
0:18:35 > 0:18:41I have no idea what you're talking about.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45Try explaining it more slowly.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49Arrest him and make him give it back.
0:18:49 > 0:18:58- Lock him up!- Muffy, calm down. - What in nirvana is going on?
0:18:58 > 0:19:03- Arthur stole my cellular phone. - I did not!
0:19:03 > 0:19:09- Did too! You're the biggest gleeper in school.- Biggest what?
0:19:09 > 0:19:19- Gleeper - someone who steals. - Make him give it back, Mr Haney.
0:19:19 > 0:19:25Take away his TV, shave his head... RING!
0:19:25 > 0:19:30Oh, excuse me. ..Oh, hi, Mommy.
0:19:30 > 0:19:35Yes, I told Mr Haney about my manicure appointment.
0:19:35 > 0:19:44Could I see you in my office? ..Sit down. I was rather upset
0:19:44 > 0:19:51- when Muffy called you a "beeper". Lollipop?- No, thank you, sir.
0:19:51 > 0:20:00If we believed all we heard, we'd still believe in sea serpents.
0:20:00 > 0:20:09Then people would be afraid to go swimming, which would be a shame.
0:20:09 > 0:20:18But bleeping is very serious indeed. If you do that, stop immediately!
0:20:18 > 0:20:24- You'll get caught and be in deep trouble.- Yes, sir.
0:20:24 > 0:20:31- Did I say that right? Bleeping...? - GLEEPING, sir.- Of course.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34BELL RINGS
0:20:37 > 0:20:45- What did he do?- Warned me. - Did you tell him where to get off?
0:20:45 > 0:20:50I bet you had him going in circles.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54Guys, I have to tell you something.
0:20:54 > 0:20:59I bet he sold out on us!
0:20:59 > 0:21:03Otherwise why wasn't he punished?
0:21:03 > 0:21:07Arthur, you didn't...DID you?
0:21:07 > 0:21:14- Didn't what? I mean, NO! - You squealer! I oughtta...
0:21:14 > 0:21:17But I didn't! ..Ow, stop it!
0:21:17 > 0:21:23OK, so prove you really are our chief gleeper.
0:21:23 > 0:21:30- How?- Gleep all the ice-cream bars from the cafeteria.
0:21:49 > 0:21:54- I can't believe I'm doing this. - Nor can I!
0:21:54 > 0:22:03- Mrs McGrady! I didn't notice you! - When meditating, be motionless.
0:22:03 > 0:22:11- Be as silent as a block of wood. - Just take me to Mr Haney.
0:22:11 > 0:22:17- Why would I do that? - I was stealing the ice-cream bars.
0:22:17 > 0:22:26- And...?- It's against the law.- Why? - There'd be no ice cream for anyone.
0:22:26 > 0:22:35- So it's bad for everyone, really. - So why do it?- I guess I won't!
0:22:35 > 0:22:40The Tough Customers will pulverise me!
0:22:40 > 0:22:46Tell them what you just told me. They'll understand.
0:22:46 > 0:22:55You big liar! You lied! You're just a lying liar! You big lying lie-face.
0:22:55 > 0:23:03I hope you've learned your lesson. Never lie because lying is...bad.
0:23:03 > 0:23:11- Arthur. I'm glad you told the truth. - Anybody want to play kickball?
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Yeah!
0:23:14 > 0:23:20Come on, Arthur. I'm not mad at you any more.
