0:00:02 > 0:00:07# Every day you walk down the street Everybody that you meet
0:00:07 > 0:00:11# Has an original point of view
0:00:11 > 0:00:13- # And I say, hey!- Hey!
0:00:13 > 0:00:18# What a wonderful kind of day We can learn to work and play
0:00:18 > 0:00:21# And get along with each other
0:00:21 > 0:00:25# You gotta listen to your heart Listen to the beat
0:00:25 > 0:00:30# Listen to the rhythm of the street Open your eyes! Open your ears!
0:00:30 > 0:00:33# Get together, make things better By working together
0:00:33 > 0:00:38# It's a simple message And it comes from the heart
0:00:38 > 0:00:43# Believe in yourself For that's the place to start
0:00:43 > 0:00:48- # And I say, hey!- Hey! - What a wonderful kind of day
0:00:48 > 0:00:54- # We can learn to work and play And get along with each other.- Hey!
0:00:54 > 0:00:59# What a wonderful kind of day, hey! What a wonderful kind of day, HEY! #
0:00:59 > 0:01:03- Hey, DW!- Hey...
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Whoa!
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Here you go, Sue Ellen, one Big Pig.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15- What happened to the walnuts?- I thought I'd try pecans instead.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19I hope you like it. I won't be making too many more Big Pigs.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22You can't stop making Big Pigs. They're works of art.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26The way the raspberry ice cream perfectly complements the double
0:01:26 > 0:01:32fudge, the Yin Yang of the nuts and cherries, it's poetry in ice cream.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34Yeah, they are pretty good.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37No, I won't be making any more
0:01:37 > 0:01:41- cos I am selling the Sugar Bowl. - You're what?!
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Yep, I always thought my daughter would run the Bowl one day,
0:01:45 > 0:01:48but she wants to be a marine botanist.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52So, who's going to take it over? It's not Mr Crosswire, is it?
0:01:52 > 0:01:55We won't be able to afford to even walk in here.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Now, now, keep your socks on, Cinderella.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01I've got a menu here from the people who want to buy the place.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Seems pretty reasonable.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05This is a Chickin Lickin' menu.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Pretty funny name for a restaurant, if you ask me.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11But they've made me a very generous offer.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Mr Manino, they're a fast-food place.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17- There are millions of them all over the world.- Really?
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Never did care much for eating out.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21I can't believe it.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23No more Sugar Bowl.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26I don't even like chicken.
0:02:35 > 0:02:39Hi, y'all, I'm Bulldog Poulet. And this here is the very porch
0:02:39 > 0:02:42where my daddy gave me the secret recipe
0:02:42 > 0:02:44for his Chickin Lickin' chicken.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49That was 45 years ago. And now I have a surprise for y'all.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57My crispy Dippin' Lickins - only 2.99.
0:02:57 > 0:03:02My crunchy Chicken Lickin Sandwich - only 1.99.
0:03:02 > 0:03:06And my Lickin' Lean Chick Sticks - only 99 cents.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09Now everyone can enjoy my tasty, tender chickens
0:03:09 > 0:03:12made with real chicken flavour.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Ain't that right, funky chickens?
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Vote for Bulldog Poulet at the Milcreek Mall this Saturday.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20Free gifts for the first 100 customers.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22He already has one place in the mall.
0:03:22 > 0:03:26Why does Elwood City need TWO Chicken Lickins?
0:03:26 > 0:03:30That's what fast-food chains do, honey. They expand.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Why does it have to be the Sugar Bowl? I love that place.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37If it really bothers you, you should do something about it.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41- Like what?- You could write letters to the mayor,
0:03:41 > 0:03:44or organise a protest.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47I don't believe it. The Sugar Bowl? It's an institution.
0:03:47 > 0:03:52- This stinks.- Hey, Have you guys had the Crispy Dippin' Lickins?
0:03:52 > 0:03:53I like them in the pinata sauce.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56I like the Chick Sticks with melted Cheddar.
0:03:56 > 0:04:01- It's cheese-a-licious!- DW loves the Little Chicks Jolly Meal.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04I used to love those!
0:04:04 > 0:04:10Hello? Is anybody listening? This is the Sugar Bowl we're talking about.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14You know, the place where we hang out, every single day?
0:04:14 > 0:04:17We all feel terrible about it, Sue Ellen, but what can we do?
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Well, for starters, you have to stop eating at Chickin Lickin'.
0:04:21 > 0:04:22If we're gonna fight them,
0:04:22 > 0:04:24we shouldn't put money in their pockets.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28Their food DOES have questionable nutritional value.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32We're going to stage a huge protest at the mall on Saturday.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36Let's show Beauregard Poulet that he can't take our Sugar Bowl.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39We may be small, but we're strong.
0:04:39 > 0:04:43It will take a lot more than cheap chicken to change our way of life.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Are you with me? It's worth a shot.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Why couldn't we have chained ourselves
0:04:50 > 0:04:53to the inside of the Sugar Bowl? I'm hungry.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Excuse me, miss,
0:04:57 > 0:05:01but you and your compatriots are blocking the destructive trajectory
0:05:01 > 0:05:05- of my of Chickin Lickin' wreckin' machine.- We're not moving!
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Ah, come now!
0:05:07 > 0:05:09It's just a silly little soda shop.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12It doesn't even have a deep-fat fryer.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16It may be silly to you, Mr Poulet, but it's our second home.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19And we won't let you tear it down. Come on, gang!
0:05:19 > 0:05:22We shall overcome! We shall overcome!
0:05:22 > 0:05:25We shall overcome!
0:05:25 > 0:05:27I do declare!
0:05:27 > 0:05:29This display of gastronomic devotion
0:05:29 > 0:05:31has touched my batter-dipped heart.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35All right. You can keep your little old Sugar Bowl.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Yay! Way to go, Sue Ellen!
0:05:37 > 0:05:43And from now on, I'm going to serve healthy food - for free.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47Sue Ellen, Sue Ellen!
0:05:47 > 0:05:52Sue Ellen! For the fifth time, can I have the blue?
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Sorry, I was just thinking about the protest this Saturday.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58This Saturday? I completely forgot.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02I'm visiting my cousins this Saturday. Can we reschedule it?
0:06:02 > 0:06:07No! Beauregard Poulet is going to be there. That's the whole point.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09I'm really sorry, Sue Ellen.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Sorry, Sue Ellen, Arthur can't help us make signs.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17He has a piano lesson. But I did bring someone else along.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Yeah, I love a good protest.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Down with homework! No more tests!
0:06:23 > 0:06:26We're not protesting school.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29We are protesting a new Chickin Lickin'.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Oh! OK.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Down with chicken! No more eggs!
0:06:35 > 0:06:36Where's Brain?
0:06:36 > 0:06:39What's this?
0:06:39 > 0:06:43The wrapper of a crunchy Chickin Lickin' sandwich.
0:06:43 > 0:06:44- I broke down.- Brain!
0:06:44 > 0:06:48I know. The head is strong, but the stomach is weak.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Sorry, Sue Ellen. I can't join this protest.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54It would be hypocritical.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Well, good luck.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00Hey, there's still cold pinata sauce in here.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31'One, two, three, four, tell them what we are fighting for.'
0:07:31 > 0:07:36- OTHERS:- Five, six, seven, eight, keep your chickens off our plate!
0:07:36 > 0:07:38How come we never count past eight?
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Won't our audience at the mall get bored?
0:07:40 > 0:07:44We're not going there to entertain people. We want them to notice us.
0:07:44 > 0:07:48Besides, there aren't any good rhymes for nine, 10, 11, 12.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51What about "This noble goal we cannot shelve"?
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Or we could skip 12 and go right to 13.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57There are some good rhymes for that. Mean, bean, green...
0:07:57 > 0:08:02- Can we just get back to marching, please?- Sue Ellen!
0:08:02 > 0:08:04What a pleasant surprise!
0:08:04 > 0:08:08Care for a ride around the block? It's so toasty in here,
0:08:08 > 0:08:10especially with a nice cup of cocoa.
0:08:12 > 0:08:17You know, Sue Ellen, it's really a pity we don't hang out more.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20I have admired you since we were little.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24I haven't even been here a year. You didn't know me when I was little.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26That may be, but I'd appreciate it
0:08:26 > 0:08:29if you would stop this "Save the Sugar Bowl" nonsense.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Muffy, you don't really think
0:08:31 > 0:08:34we need another Chickin Lickin'? There's one five minutes away.
0:08:34 > 0:08:39No! Those places are so tacky. What we need is a Burrito Barn.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43That's the franchise Daddy wants to put there.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Stop the car!- Oh, my!
0:08:46 > 0:08:51Look what someone left behind. A talking Polly Locket watch.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54And it goes perfectly with what you're wearing.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56Stop the car!
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Your protest isn't going to work, anyway.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Do you really think kids'll change the mind
0:09:03 > 0:09:06of a multi-million-dollar corporation?
0:09:06 > 0:09:10Especially when two of them are Buster and Binky?!
0:09:11 > 0:09:14- < WHOOPING AND LAUGHING - I got a leaf in my mouth!
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Oh-h!
0:09:17 > 0:09:22- 'One, two, three, four...'- The Sugar Bowl's worth fighting for.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25My voice is starting to hurt.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29Me, too. Besides, we have been protesting for two hours
0:09:29 > 0:09:31and people barely notice us.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Maybe we should just go home.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38We can't leave. Beauregard Poulet isn't even here yet.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Look! A news crew is coming.
0:09:44 > 0:09:49Morning, folks! Y'all ready for some of my tasty chicken?
0:09:49 > 0:09:51'Save our Sugar Bowl!
0:09:51 > 0:09:53'Save our Sugar Bowl!'
0:09:54 > 0:09:57I'm sure going to miss this place.
0:09:57 > 0:10:02- Arthur, remember the first time I took you here?- Yeah!
0:10:08 > 0:10:12No need to turn yourself blue.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16I even remember the flavour. Butter Brickle.
0:10:16 > 0:10:21And, DW, you were only one and a half when I brought you here.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28Ah!
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Here we go. Three Banana Boats.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34Why the long faces? They all got extra cherries.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38- We're just reminiscing, Carl.- Oh.
0:10:42 > 0:10:46Come on, Carl, let's see your jitterbug.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Aw, I don't know, Flora.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55HE SIGHS
0:10:55 > 0:10:58And what would you like for Chicken Day, little fella?
0:10:58 > 0:11:03- How about a box of my Cajun Chickoritos?- That's it!
0:11:03 > 0:11:07- Hold this!- Ho-ho! Looks like this little girl
0:11:07 > 0:11:11just can't wait to get her hands on my crispy Lickin'...
0:11:11 > 0:11:13I don't want your chicken!
0:11:13 > 0:11:15I want you to stay away from our Sugar Bowl.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18- Come again?- Please, Mr Poulet.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21I know you're a businessman and need to make money,
0:11:21 > 0:11:24but can't you open up your new store some place else?
0:11:24 > 0:11:28Look, kid, I'm just an actor. There is no Beauregard Poulet.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31If you've got a problem, complaint forms are in the restaurant.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Now, can you step aside and let me do my job?
0:11:34 > 0:11:36What did he say?
0:11:38 > 0:11:41I know you're upset, honey, but I'm proud of you.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Not everyone has the courage
0:11:43 > 0:11:46to speak out against things they disagree with.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Yes, but Muffy was right.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51I was a fool to think it would actually work.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53CHILDREN CHEER
0:11:55 > 0:11:57What's going on?
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Mr Manino decided not to sell the place.
0:12:00 > 0:12:05How could I? With business this good, I will retire a millionaire!
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Here you go, one Big Pig.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17- Thanks, Mr Manino. Slow day, huh? - I've had slower.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21You have switched back to walnuts.
0:12:21 > 0:12:26Yep. You know what I always say? "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
