Ready, Gnasher? Let's go!

# Playing by the rules

0:00:040:00:08

# Is highly overrated

0:00:080:00:11

# Unstoppable, unstoppable, yeah!

0:00:110:00:14

# They can't hold us back

0:00:140:00:17

# We'll make the most of every second

0:00:170:00:21

# Unstoppable, unstoppable, yeah!

0:00:210:00:24

# After all is said and done

0:00:240:00:26

# Shout, "One for all and all for fun!"

0:00:260:00:28

# Nothing's gonna bring us down today

0:00:280:00:33

# Open up your eyes The world outside is waiting. #

0:00:330:00:38

I'm sorry to say, children, but I have shocking news.

0:00:500:00:54

Tomorrow, the school inspector will carry out

0:00:540:00:58

a thorough inspection of our school.

0:00:580:01:00

I have to inform you, if he fails us, they will close the school down.

0:01:000:01:05

SHE WAILS

0:01:050:01:08

My wonderful school gone for good!

0:01:080:01:13

Uh, don't cry, Dennis. I'm sure it won't come to that.

0:01:130:01:17

Oh, these are tears of joy, Curly.

0:01:170:01:20

Tears of pure joy!

0:01:200:01:22

Don't you see what this means?

0:01:220:01:24

School's out...for ever!

0:01:240:01:26

Only if it fails the inspection.

0:01:260:01:28

Oh, it's going to fail all right, Pie-Face.

0:01:280:01:31

This calls for an Extraordinary Menace Meeting.

0:01:310:01:34

Usual time and place.

0:01:340:01:36

-So, I've been doing my homework...

-Hah! How often do we hear that?

0:01:360:01:40

This man holds the key to our happiness.

0:01:400:01:42

I give you...the school inspector.

0:01:420:01:46

Hello, my name is Derek Pencils, school inspector,

0:01:460:01:50

-but you can call me...

-SCHOOL CRUMBLES

0:01:500:01:52

The Closing-ator.

0:01:520:01:54

I have closed 30 schools in four years

0:01:540:01:58

and THAT is a record! Hah!

0:01:580:02:00

30 schools! Give that man a medal.

0:02:000:02:03

Watch out or I might close your school n' all.

0:02:030:02:06

KUNG FU YELLS

0:02:060:02:08

I looked him up online. Derek Pencils is totally hardcore.

0:02:080:02:12

He believes in punctual, polite pupils,

0:02:120:02:15

clean classrooms and outstanding academic achievement.

0:02:150:02:19

Wow! Everything Beanotown School doesn't have.

0:02:190:02:23

Ha, ha! It's definitely going to fail!

0:02:230:02:25

Yeah, definitely, but...

0:02:250:02:28

let's give it an extra nudge anyway, just to make sure.

0:02:280:02:32

What'll happen to the school after they close it?

0:02:320:02:34

I heard they're going to turn it into a whopping great funfair.

0:02:340:02:38

Yeah, in your dreams, Curly.

0:02:380:02:40

Just think...this time tomorrow,

0:02:400:02:43

school will be a bad memory.

0:02:430:02:45

THEY SIGH

0:02:450:02:47

Today is do or die day, Dennis,

0:02:510:02:53

so I'm giving the school a lick of paint.

0:02:530:02:55

Want a helping hand, sir?

0:02:550:02:57

Humph! And fall foul of your pranking ways?

0:02:570:03:00

Not likely.

0:03:000:03:02

But, sir, this is the school's hour of need.

0:03:020:03:05

-We're here to help.

-Yeah, make the day run smoothly.

0:03:050:03:08

See it all goes to plan, sir.

0:03:080:03:11

Hmm. Maybe I've misjudged you boys.

0:03:110:03:14

All right, you're on Operation SOS, Save Our School.

0:03:140:03:19

You can lend a helping hand.

0:03:190:03:20

ALL CHEER

0:03:200:03:22

So, THIS is Beanotown School.

0:03:220:03:24

Ahh! Oh, Mr Pencils! Hah! Hmm.

0:03:240:03:28

HE SNIFFS

0:03:280:03:30

I smell closure!

0:03:300:03:32

Oh, it's probably just the drains.

0:03:320:03:34

Can I interest you in a cup of tea?

0:03:340:03:37

A small digestive on the side, perhaps?

0:03:370:03:40

Why not? Closing schools is thirsty work. Brew up, headmaster.

0:03:400:03:43

We'll sup to the demise of Beanotown School.

0:03:430:03:46

Two teas, eh? Time for phase one, Curly -

0:03:460:03:50

the mighty wind.

0:03:500:03:52

Two teas coming up.

0:03:520:03:54

-To my office then.

-Lead on, Macduff.

-Right.

0:03:540:03:58

Who's Macduff?

0:03:580:04:00

This is going to be easy! Right, phase two -

0:04:000:04:03

enter the grasshopper.

0:04:030:04:05

Oh, yeah...

0:04:050:04:06

Grasshoppers primed...

0:04:120:04:14

And ready to hop. Ha, ha!

0:04:140:04:16

Water, milk, tea...

0:04:190:04:23

..fart powder.

0:04:250:04:26

Hmm?

0:04:290:04:30

Fart powder, fart powder, fart powder. Hee, hee!

0:04:300:04:33

Closing schools make me feel good.

0:04:330:04:36

You know what I mean, Detester?

0:04:360:04:38

Makes me feel like I'm doing a good job.

0:04:380:04:40

And I don't mind telling you that this school

0:04:410:04:44

has closure written all over it.

0:04:440:04:48

Punctuality, cleanliness, orderly classrooms -

0:04:480:04:52

that's what I look for,

0:04:520:04:53

and, most importantly, good manners.

0:04:530:04:57

What have you got to say to that, Detester?

0:04:570:04:59

HE PARPS

0:04:590:05:01

Goodness gracious, man!

0:05:010:05:03

I am most terribly sorry.

0:05:030:05:05

-"Disgustingly flatulent headmaster!"

-HE PARPS AGAIN

0:05:050:05:09

Oh! Right, I suppose you'd better show me round this "school".

0:05:090:05:12

Ah, hah!

0:05:130:05:15

Phase three! School runs half an hour late.

0:05:150:05:18

Now for phase four.

0:05:180:05:20

A good dollop of slime...

0:05:210:05:23

Hee, hee, hee!

0:05:230:05:24

Today's lesson,

0:05:240:05:26

the animal kingdom.

0:05:260:05:28

Open your books, please.

0:05:280:05:30

Yuck! CHILDREN SHOUT

0:05:320:05:34

Unless my ears deceive me, that sounds very much like...

0:05:340:05:37

SCREAMING

0:05:370:05:39

Anarchy, headmaster.

0:05:390:05:41

We prefer to call it

0:05:410:05:42

bringing the wild into the classroom!

0:05:420:05:45

You can say that again.

0:05:450:05:47

This is not looking good, Headmaster.

0:05:470:05:48

BELL RINGS

0:05:480:05:50

And that school bell is late.

0:05:500:05:52

CHILDREN LAUGH AND CHEER

0:05:520:05:54

Mr Pencils? MR PENCILS!

0:05:540:05:57

HE HUFFS AND GRUNTS

0:05:590:06:01

I would like to address the entire school in the school hall...NOW!

0:06:010:06:06

A flatulent headmaster,

0:06:060:06:08

chaotic classrooms and slovenly punctuality.

0:06:080:06:11

What next, I wonder?

0:06:110:06:13

I'll tell you what next! It's SLIME TIME!

0:06:130:06:17

Yah!

0:06:170:06:18

HE GROWLS

0:06:200:06:21

This school has failed the inspection!

0:06:210:06:25

After I've signed off the paperwork,

0:06:250:06:27

Beanotown School will be closed...FOREVER!

0:06:270:06:31

-Ha, ha! Result!

-We did it!

0:06:310:06:35

Gentlemen, this has been the menace to end all menaces! Ha, ha!

0:06:350:06:40

Treehouse in one hour.

0:06:400:06:42

Time to start plotting the rest of our lives.

0:06:420:06:46

We're sorry about the school, Dennis.

0:06:470:06:49

Sorry? It's brilliant! Ha, ha!

0:06:490:06:52

Eh, I mean, no, you're right, it's, um, terrible.

0:06:520:06:56

Too right it's terrible. You'll never guess what I've just heard.

0:06:560:06:59

NOOOO!!!

0:06:590:07:04

Ah! Life in the school-free lane! Ha, ha! Pinch me, I must be dreaming.

0:07:040:07:09

This isn't a dream! It's a NIGHTMARE!

0:07:090:07:11

After Beanotown School closes, we're all going to be sent to...

0:07:110:07:15

Drainotown School!

0:07:150:07:17

BOTH: Not Drainotown School!

0:07:170:07:20

BATS CHATTER

0:07:200:07:22

-What have we done?!

-We have to make the inspector change his mind.

0:07:220:07:26

Aye, but how? It's impossible!

0:07:260:07:28

Gnash! Gnash, gnash, gnash!

0:07:280:07:30

Gnash, gnash!

0:07:300:07:32

Not necessarily, Curly.

0:07:330:07:37

HE PUFFS

0:07:370:07:38

We think we might have found a way to save the school, sir.

0:07:380:07:41

Heh, heh, heh!

0:07:420:07:44

Huh? Gnasher?

0:07:440:07:45

He's a bona fide genius.

0:07:450:07:47

-He's a dog!

-He's indognito, disguised as...

0:07:470:07:52

-MR PENCILS:

-Toot, toot!

0:07:520:07:53

SMASHING

0:07:530:07:55

Right, sign here and the real fun begins.

0:07:550:07:59

Oh! Mr School Inspector, what if we showed you

0:07:590:08:03

that this school harboured a budding mastermind?

0:08:030:08:05

Hah! Naturally, if such talent came forward, I might reconsider.

0:08:050:08:10

Introducing Beanotown's star pupil!

0:08:100:08:13

Gna...heh, heh!

0:08:130:08:15

Hmm? All right!

0:08:150:08:16

Hup!

0:08:160:08:17

Lead on, Macduff!

0:08:170:08:19

(Who's Macduff?)

0:08:210:08:22

(I have no idea.)

0:08:220:08:24

We're excellent at archaeology.

0:08:270:08:29

Which, as everyone knows, is the art of digging up bones.

0:08:290:08:33

Gnash, gnash, gnash, gnash, gnash!

0:08:340:08:36

Gnash!

0:08:370:08:39

Not bad, eh?

0:08:400:08:42

Hmm, a lucky fluke!

0:08:420:08:44

We've also got the best football team in Beanotown.

0:08:460:08:49

Gnash!

0:08:490:08:50

Gnash!

0:08:500:08:52

Gnash!

0:08:520:08:54

Whoa!

0:08:540:08:55

I'm impressed, but I do like using my bulldozer

0:08:550:08:59

and, anyway, these aren't core subjects.

0:08:590:09:01

You're right, but

0:09:010:09:03

our star pupil also happens to be a genius at maths.

0:09:030:09:08

Ah, my favourite subject!

0:09:080:09:09

Very well, if he can beat ME at maths,

0:09:090:09:13

I'll tear up the closure form myself.

0:09:130:09:15

Bet you didn't think I were going to say that, did you?

0:09:150:09:18

I'll use my calculator.

0:09:200:09:21

-And he'll used these.

-DENNIS GRUNTS

0:09:210:09:24

What? Sausages? Is this a joke?

0:09:240:09:26

Genius moves in mysterious ways.

0:09:260:09:29

Question one - two plus two.

0:09:300:09:33

That's easy. It's...four.

0:09:330:09:36

Gnash-gnash!

0:09:360:09:37

APPLAUSE

0:09:370:09:38

Uh...next question.

0:09:380:09:40

Einstein's Theory of General Relativity states E = MC...

0:09:410:09:47

-Gnash!

-Squared is the right answer!

0:09:470:09:50

Ha, ha! You've done it, Gnasher!

0:09:500:09:52

THEY CHEER AND APPLAUD

0:09:520:09:54

Not so fast. I came here to close a school.

0:09:540:09:57

I don't like to go home without a bit of rubble on me fingertips.

0:09:570:10:01

One final question - history!

0:10:010:10:04

Who was the famous architect of the Regency Period?

0:10:040:10:09

John...?

0:10:090:10:11

That's what I thought.

0:10:120:10:14

I'm going back to fire up my bulldozer

0:10:140:10:16

-and I'm taking these sausages with me.

-GNASH!

0:10:160:10:19

Huh? John Nash is the right answer.

0:10:190:10:22

THEY CHEER

0:10:220:10:25

Three little words - I will be back.

0:10:250:10:28

-We did it!

-Ha, ha! Gnasher did it!

0:10:300:10:33

Well done, Dennis.

0:10:330:10:35

Thanks to you, Beanotown School won't have to be turned

0:10:350:10:38

into a whopping great funfair.

0:10:380:10:41

ALL: A whopping great funfair!

0:10:410:10:43

What have we done? Ahh! Come back!

0:10:430:10:46

-We're sorry!

-Come back!
