0:01:27 > 0:01:29I do not pick up things with plastic bags.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31Well, I don't care what it is.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33We never had pets at the orphanage.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Well, except for Fluffy.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Come on, Fluffy. Grab the string!

0:02:29 > 0:02:31any junk food...
0:02:31 > 0:02:34or the consequences will be dire.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- GIRLS GIGGLE - Er, daddy. Daddy!
0:02:49 > 0:02:51You need a name.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Something cool. Something bold, like "Rex".
0:02:54 > 0:02:55No! Er...
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Thunder Something!
0:02:57 > 0:03:01- What do you think? - HIDEOUS BELCH

0:03:02 > 0:03:04GURGLE
0:03:04 > 0:03:05Think I'm starting to fall for you,
0:03:05 > 0:03:10you disgusting, limbless, non-carbon-based goo-vomiting alien spore.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13And I'm going to take such good care of you.
0:03:13 > 0:03:14GURGLE
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Aw. Hee.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22- SHE CHUCKLES - Oh, no, you don't, little Eric!
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Trust me, this is going to look great.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26You could use a little colour, besides green.
0:03:26 > 0:03:27SCHLURP
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Ohh...eugh.
0:03:36 > 0:03:37GURGLE
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Whoa! You can't eat that!
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Trevor, be careful.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43You know they aren't supposed to eat junk food.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Look, it's not my rule.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Stop looking at me like that.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52Now, Maxum Man said pets need exercise.
0:03:52 > 0:03:53So...
0:03:53 > 0:03:55who wants the ball?
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Go get it! Get the ball!
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Oh! Oh! Ball, ball!
0:04:00 > 0:04:03No, bad Trevor, bad Trevor!
0:04:03 > 0:04:05What a great day.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Can't believe the weekend is over.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09It's almost time for you to go back to your mommy.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Since it's our last night together,
0:04:11 > 0:04:13is there anything special you want to do?
0:04:15 > 0:04:20- Augh, Trevor is such a slob! There's junk food everywhere.- GURGLE.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24Ah-ah, sorry buddy. You can't have these.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28Junk food is not good for you. No, it's not.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Oh, I am going to miss you.
0:04:33 > 0:04:37VOOSH SQUEALS
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Herr Needles. Your spore?
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Which needs handing in, so the Earth will not be destroyed
0:04:45 > 0:04:48by ze alien mothers coming back to pick up their babies?
0:04:50 > 0:04:52Here it is, in perfect shape!
0:04:52 > 0:04:53PFFFZZZ
0:04:53 > 0:04:54SHUDDER
0:04:54 > 0:04:56BOOM
0:04:56 > 0:04:59So, Needles. Did you have a fun time with the alien spores?
0:04:59 > 0:05:02They really are quite lovely, aren't they? How did you...
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Agh! Stop asking me all these questions!
0:05:05 > 0:05:07I mean...hey, I hear Maxum Man calling me.
0:05:07 > 0:05:08Got to go!
0:05:09 > 0:05:10Hmm.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13SQUEAL SPLUD
0:05:13 > 0:05:15- Boo!- Wah!
0:05:15 > 0:05:18My Something Strange Sensor is sensing something strange.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20What are you being up to now, Eric?
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Up to? Er, nothing at all.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25And on a completed unrelated topic,
0:05:25 > 0:05:26isn't it time for your hard drive backup?
0:05:26 > 0:05:28- Actually, my... - BLOOP
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Better safe than sorry, right?
0:05:31 > 0:05:32I'll be offline for a few hours,
0:05:32 > 0:05:37and incapable of checking up on anything secret you may be doing...
0:05:39 > 0:05:41Hmm. Hey, little...
0:05:41 > 0:05:43big...buddy?!
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Give me that.

0:05:46 > 0:05:47GURGLE
0:05:50 > 0:05:53H-h-hey, Trevor, what's up?
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Don't "H-h-hey, Trevor, what's up" me!
0:05:57 > 0:05:59You're acting really weird.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02If I only knew what you were hiding... SQUELCH
0:06:02 > 0:06:05I'll crack this nut... SQUELCH
0:06:05 > 0:06:07OK, you know I'm onto you... SQUELCH
0:06:07 > 0:06:11Great, and all this falling isn't helping me figure it out, either.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Huh-ho! Eugh. SQUELCH
0:06:14 > 0:06:16THUNDEROUS BELCH
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Of course!
0:06:18 > 0:06:21I bet your pet will know what you're hiding.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Trevor, it's my pet! That's what I'm hiding.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28And I just love him too much to give him back.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- You got to help me keep him! - HE CRIES
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Keeping an alien spore, way past when we were supposed to,
0:06:34 > 0:06:38at the possible peril of the entire planet?
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Count me in, bro.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42We just have to keep junk food away from him.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44He's getting huge.
0:06:44 > 0:06:45Ruuurf.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Gah!
0:06:48 > 0:06:51HIGH-PITCHED WAIL
0:06:58 > 0:06:59GROWL
0:07:00 > 0:07:02CHOMP MUNCH
0:07:04 > 0:07:06You were supposed to watch him for one minute,
0:07:06 > 0:07:08while I went to the bathroom.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10I was watching. It was awesome.
0:07:10 > 0:07:11BELCH
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Ugh. Never mind.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17No matter how big or destructive he gets, I can never let him go.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20He and I are a team.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22I love him!
0:07:22 > 0:07:24BOOM
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Huh. He's gone, isn't he?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30WATCH RINGS
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Eric, did you by chance happen to keep your spore,
0:07:33 > 0:07:35after you were supposed to hand it in?
0:07:35 > 0:07:37No. Yes. Maybe. Why?
0:07:37 > 0:07:38Oh, no reason.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41It's just that the alien's mother is on her way to Earth
0:07:41 > 0:07:43to get her baby back.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Oh, and also to destroy us!
0:07:45 > 0:07:47But he's my pet!
0:07:47 > 0:07:49I'll just catch him and hide him from her.
0:07:49 > 0:07:50Vana? Kitty?
0:07:50 > 0:07:53I'm going to need a big hole.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55TZAPT.
0:07:55 > 0:07:56OK, hole's done.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Now how do we get that big gross spore in it?
0:07:58 > 0:08:02With Maxum Man's hologram projector, I can create any image I want.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10We-he-hell...that's not what I wanted to show...
0:08:10 > 0:08:11anyone.
0:08:13 > 0:08:14And...moving on.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Oh, just in time, here he comes!
0:08:18 > 0:08:19GURGLE
0:08:21 > 0:08:23He's in the hole. Now what?
0:08:23 > 0:08:24I never thought that far ahead.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26RUMBLE
0:08:29 > 0:08:30No, she can't take him away!
0:08:30 > 0:08:34He loves me, and if he could speak and not just burp,
0:08:34 > 0:08:35he would tell me.
0:08:35 > 0:08:36Right, boy?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38ROAR
0:08:38 > 0:08:41GURGLY WAIL
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Oh. I can't pretend any more.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46You really miss your mom, don't you?
0:08:46 > 0:08:48ROAR
0:08:48 > 0:08:50OK, I'll send you back.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52I know what it's like to be away from your mom,
0:08:52 > 0:08:54and I can't do that to you.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58But if she comes down here to get him, the city will be destroyed!
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Then we'll fly him up to meet her,
0:09:00 > 0:09:02with the Maxum Rocket.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08She's all powered up and ready to go.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11He's a little heavy, so I added some extra power.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15A little dynamite, plutonium, fizzy rock candies...
0:09:15 > 0:09:16you know, the usual.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Just say the word.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22- Huh.- It's for the best, Eric.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25No! I can't, I can't let him go,
0:09:25 > 0:09:27I love him!
0:09:27 > 0:09:29He'll be OK. We don't need the planet, right?
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Nooo! Hrrrk...
0:09:31 > 0:09:32We have to.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34It's the only way to save the Earth
0:09:34 > 0:09:37from horrible, terrible and total destruction.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39And besides...
0:09:39 > 0:09:40I like pressing buttons.
0:09:40 > 0:09:41BLIP
0:09:43 > 0:09:44I can't look.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Sorry, dude. It was for the best.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51And get a load of the pretty colours!
0:09:51 > 0:09:54Go, Slimy! Oh, woo!
0:09:54 > 0:09:57It really was the right thing to do.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59I know, Kitty. I was just being selfish.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Who was I, to keep him away from his mother?
0:10:05 > 0:10:07From rejoining his only family?
0:10:07 > 0:10:11Something that I never had.
0:10:11 > 0:10:12I'm an orphan, you know.
0:10:12 > 0:10:13I know, I know.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19I'm just happy that I could make this great personal sacrifice,
0:10:19 > 0:10:22and send him safely on his way home to mom.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29Come on, everybody. Let's go eat some junk food.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31Hm. It's raining.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Too much dynamite, you think?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Shh!
0:10:35 > 0:10:37I wonder if I'll ever see him again?
0:10:37 > 0:10:41Never know, buddy. You never know.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43THEY BELCH
