Greener-Man vs Polluter Wingin' It

'In times of darkness, the world needs a hero.

'Instead, they got me.

'I am Greener Man.'

CACKLING LAUGHTER >

It's over, Polluter.

Maybe it's over your head!

'I guess you're wondering how we got here.'

For three...

Rejected.

Jackson going for the boards at the buzzer!

No, no!

-Whoo!

-Sinks it!

Hey, boys.

Get over here.

What do I see?

I see two things wrong with this picture.

One, that bottle is recyclable and you've thrown it in the garbage.

And two, you should have passed to Serge, he was wide open.

-He's on the other team.

-Carl, when it comes to the environment,

we're all on the same team.

Don't you know that plastics, metals...

Hey, me and Porter got to get to class.

-You are in class.

-Happy recycling, Principal.

-Whoa.

Now I see three things wrong.

Sassing a principal?

What's next, you guys? Bank robbery?

I think you're overreacting, Principal Malone.

No.

This is overreacting.

Carl, you are Greener Man.

Porter, you are his sidekick, Bin Boy.

And Serge, you are their arch-nemesis, Polluter.

You're going to go class to class,

spreading the good enviro-word for Earth Week.

All this for one plastic bottle in the trash?

It takes 500 years for a plastic bottle to decompose.

Or would you rather 500 years of detention?

Is that 500 years each or split between the three of us?

Does it...matter?

# Let's give it one more shot

# Let's give it everything we've got

# Cos if we get it right

# We will surely conquer the world

# Hey! I've got my wings

# From an angel

# Now we're wingin' it all the time

# I'm giving wings to an angel

# Always an angel

# Now we've got to learn to fly. #

Lower your carbon footprint.

Raise your own Chantecler chickens.

Never mind the 100-mile diet, try the back yard diet.

Get off the grid. Start small.

Spend a few days without your cell phone.

Jane, take this away from me.

I can't believe you're willing to give up your beloved cell.

You really care about the earth.

Remember that hunk Callum I was dating?

So I ordered the steak and the pork.

Brittany, are you even listening to my meat story?

Mm-hmm, yeah, meat.

Delish.

Ooh! New app!

You know what else there's a new app for? Getting dumped.

We're toast, Brittany.

Mm-hmm, yeah, toast.

It's something you put meat on.

Take it from me.

Take it from me before I text again.

Congratulations, Brittany.

Oh, no. Oh, no!

I'm getting the texting shakes again.

O-M-G... B-R-B. L-O-L!

Oh, Jane, I need your help.

My carbon footprint can eat their carbon footprints for...

-What's my line?

-Breakfast.

..for breakfast. Pollution is the solution.

-You will not win, Polluter.

-We'll see about that. Ha-ha!

SILENCE

We're done.

Oh, bravo!

Well, off you go to spread your eco-joy.

Go. Go on now. Get out.

Principal Malone is just doing this to punish us.

-He wants us to hate it.

-Mission accomplished.

What are you saying, we like it to spite him?

Fully commit and make recycling the coolest thing at Bennett High.

Super-cool costumes and amazing special effects.

I'm in. What about you, Serge?

Of course I'm in. When have I not been in?

HEROIC MUSIC

You need a locker cleanse, Brittany.

I know. I have an extensive collection of Callum mementos.

I call them Callumentos.

Most of this stuff is recyclable.

I'll help you get over Callum

and we'll help the environment at the same time.

This was our first water bottle.

You know you're in love when you share backwash.

-That's gross.

-I know.

He won this for me at the county fair.

-Doing what?

-He whacked a lot of moles.

This napkin was from the first meal Callum and I ate together.

It still has meat sauce on it.

Oh, how he loved his meat sauce.

Be ruthless.

Ruthless.

I like that word.

You did it!

I need that napkin back!

No! Brittany!

-Yes!

-There'll be other napkins in your life.

You're right, Jane.

Callum, you're recycled.

Stop right there, Polluter.

Greener Man, my arch-nemesis, and Bin Boy.

I've already been subjected to this performance once today.

Aren't these boys supposed to be in someone else's class now?

Well, Carl says they've reworked the show

and he insisted that you gave him a second chance to dazzle you.

Well, maybe it's time to take out the trash.

-What are you doing?

-Just go with it.

-What about Serge?

-Who cares? It's Serge.

Aaaarrrgggghhh!

APPLAUSE

Excellent. Boys, you just violated about 14 safety codes.

But look how invigorated the students are.

-Your new show is amazing.

-Man, that was so much fun.

He was all like, wham, and he was, rrrwwwrrrr.

I was like, whoa, and some guy in the audience was like, argh!

That was me. But it was more like eergh.

Hey, forget about going class to class.

I'm making you headliners at tomorrow's Earth Week assembly.

-Are you ready for the big time?

-Yeah!

Polluter, are you ready to challenge Greener Man and Bin Boy again?

HE CACKLES

What are you doing? Show's over.

I feel bad about my magic knocking Serge around like that.

I wouldn't sweat it. Serge has been hit so many times in football,

the coach is modelling the new tackle dummy after him.

My beautiful Bennett High vandalised!

Say it ain't so.

Er, but don't say "ain't". That's bad grammar.

Who's responsible for this?

Er... Er, well, we are!

We did this to promote Earth Week.

So this is some sort of marketing/advertising strategy

to generate buzz for your show?

And you'll clean all this up when the Assembly's done?

BOTH: Yeah.

That's an excellent idea!

Ha ha!

Glad I could help, Greener Man and Bin Boy!

All right. Let's go find Serge.

Yeah.

HE LAUGHS MANIACALLY

Ooh, when I'm done with this place,

the walls will smell like rancid pickles

and the streets will run with curdled yogurt!

Ah ha ha ha ha ha!

-Serge, what are you doing?

-That's Polluter to you, Greener Man.

Don't play your games with me, you don't have the stomach for it.

You also lack basic upper body strength!

Ah ha ha ha!

The vortex from your Green-a-rang - it's turned Serge into Polluter!

Oh, I love how your crummy angel magic's always my fault. Fix him!

Oh, nod all you want, BEAN Boy!

You look like a bobblehead with a grudge!

Yah ha ha!

Oh, maybe you'll be able to recycle your shame and use it again tomorrow.

Pollution is the solution!

HE LAUGHS MANIACALLY

Ugh! He smells like a Porta Potti in a park after Labour Day.

Ugh. Or after a chilli-eating contest.

Did you see his costume?

I'm more concerned that he makes trash levitate!

And my magic has no effect.

I mean how the energy bars change colour.

His supervillain powers are blocking my magi

and the colour change in his costume means he getting even more power.

The more he litters, the more powerful he gets?

Then by the looks of this room, he's more powerful than...

..you and me combined.

This is awesome, Jane. I'm not wearing mascara or eyeliner.

Or deodorant.

-SHE GASPS

-There's Callum!

I had a sandwich with eight kinds of meat.

The guy's like, "Who has that much meat on a sandwich?" I do.

Why am I in public looking like such a troll?!

Hide me! This is all your fault!

So that's Callum. Eh, he's OK.

Who am I kidding? That's the hottest guy ever.

I know. If he was an ice-cream flavour, it would be Hunky Monkey.

If he was an American jazz pianist,

-then he's be Thelonious Hunk. If he were a...

-Jane!

Stop being cleverer than me and ogling my ex!

I'm about to go and chase after him.

Oh, right, um... I have a plan.

There's no better distraction than an old-fashioned tree protest.

Ee! Exciting!

I don't need Callum to hug. This tree is as strong and sturdy.

What if Serge gets stuck being Polluter forever?

This is terrible!

Even if we can't change him back, we have to stop him.

He'll strike soon and we need to capture him.

-How do we predict the moves of a total maniac?

-That's how.

Alex, we need your help. You're a comic-book nerd.

-The biggest!

-Tell us all about supervillains.

Supervillains always have a plot to strike during a public event.

That's it!

Polluter's next attack is at the Earth Week Assembly.

Welcome to the Earth Week Assembly.

I am proud of all you greeniacs for being eco-friendly.

Three lads that I am very proud of are Greener Man,

Bin Boy and Polluter, who, this week...

inspired me to walk to work instead of driving.

Ha! That's because you don't own a car!

That is a life choice, not a money issue.

Anyway, Greener Man will be performing

at the end of the Assembly.

# We've got the whole world in our hands... #

Split up and scout for Polluter - he shouldn't be far.

Great plan.

-Keep your nose peeled.

-All right.

# ..whole world in our hands... #

So, er...

you seen Serge anywhere?

Are you talking to me or the chicken?

# ..in our hands

# We've got photovoltaic cells in our hands... #

SERGE ON RADIO: 'Fools! You can't defeat Polluter!'

Just watch me, Polluter. Over.

'No, it is I who's watching you!

'But from where?

'There's a stink bomb somewhere in the gym.'

You smelly coward!

'The stink bomb will detonate when Malone

'turns off the lights for Earth Minute.'

Now, let's have a moment of darkness

to reflect on how we can be better environmentalists.

Don't do it. There's innocent people!

Tell us where it is. It's a fight between me and you.

And Bin Boy, I guess. Come back.

'Here's a clue.

'How is your head like a field of corn?'

'Ha ha! Over and out!'

How is my head like a field of corn?

They both have ears!

The stink bomb's in someone's ear! But there's ears all over the gym!

How can a bomb be in someone's ears?

Roger that.

Ten! Nine! Eight...

Principal Malone, we have a stink bomb threat.

This part of your show's dramatic! Stink bomb threat, everyone!

Sir, this is dead serious.

Dead serious stink bomb!

Theatrical genius!

Porter, I've got it! Ear - E-A-R.

The bomb is in the first letters of the Earth Week sign!

Five! Four!

-Three!

-No!

Quick, everyone out! It's a stink bomb.

-Remain calm.

-Timothy, Andrew, hold your beaks.

Argh!

Everyone, to the soccer field!

Look at the stripes on his boots.

They're different to last time! Is he getting weaker?

Or maybe he's getting stronger.

Greener Man, Bin Boy...

I suggest you follow the students to the showers.

The showers of sewage!

HE LAUGHS MANIACALLY

HE COUGHS

Yep. He definitely got stronger.

Bin Boy, you OK?

Porter?

Bin Boy?!

Polluter Man!

-Has anyone seen Porter?

-I seen him every day.

Must be somewhere in the school still.

-I liked your Earth Day skit. What happens in phase two?

-Phase two?

Yeah! When the villain reveals the next level to his plan.

The plan that usually involves destroying the world.

Right, right! And what might that be, exactly?

I don't know - you wrote it.

I can't wait to see why the Polluter wanted everyone out of the school.

-Er, Principal Malone!

-Hm?

-I need to get back inside to get ready for phase two.

-Phase two?

The big finale!

I must say, Carl, if I was grading this presentation,

-it'd be an A+ so far.

-Thanks!

Oh! Students...

the stink is wafting this way.

To the soccer field for the finale!

BOTH: # Oh the tree is good to me

# It gives to me all the things I need

# The shade and the leaves and the oxygen

# This is where everything begins SCREAMING AND COUGHING

-# Cos the tree is good to me... #

-It's working!

Our song is inspiring the entire school to join us.

I'm making green cool.

# Oh the tree is good to me

# So please don't cut all the evergreens

# It gives a home to the squirrels and the birds

# So please remember everything you've heard

# That the tree is good to me. #

HE SNIFFS

MANIACAL LAUGHTER

'And if you were wondering, this is how I got here.'

POLLUTER CACKLES

It's over, Polluter.

Maybe it's over your head!

Ha ha!

All red bars!

Polluter's now at MAXIMUM STRENGTH!

Nothing can stop me now!

Oh, we'll see about that.

One step closer and I'll launch.

Launch? Launch what?

How did I not see that when I came in here?

Porter, what are you doing?

It's not time to slow-dance with a rocket!

Serge used his supervillain powers to stick me to it.

Once I launch my stink rocket, it will explode

and rain millions of pieces of trash down on the city.

It will also rain millions of pieces of your sidekick.

Or was that not explicit?

How does Polluter have a better vocabulary than Serge?

There's only one problem with your plan, Polluter.

Oh, what's that?

It stinks!

Argh!

Noooooo!

Wah! Urgh!

Arrrrgh!

Say goodbye to your little friend!

HE LAUGHS MANIACALLY

Here comes a gut with a saw. We won't let him cut down this tree.

Ha! You can't cut down this tree!

OK.

Score one for Mother Nature!

CHAINSAW BUZZES

THEY GASP AND CRY

Timberrrrrrr!

THEY SCREAM

I was here to cut down THAT tree.

-We chained ourselves to the wrong tree?!

-Oh, no!

Three...

two...

-one...

-Wait, wait, Polluter!

Your plan is genius.

I agree, the world would be a much better place

-if it were covered in filth!

-WHAT?!

Oh, now you're speaking my language!

This teeny-tiny rocket is pathetic.

It's cool if you want to pollute the entire neighbourhood,

but why not the entire planet?

-What are you talking about, Carl? Are you crazy?

-Yes!

Yes, pollution IS the solution!

-Your rocket needs more trash, Polluter.

-Don't encourage him!

Zip it, Bin Boy!

Polluter, there is trash all over the school.

Use it!

Yes!

YES!

Brilliant! Brilliant!

HE LAUGHS MANIACALLY

More trash!

HE CACKLES

Have you lost it?!

I noticed his boots changed colour

-when he deflected the Green-a-rang into the bin.

-I saw that, too.

If his colour gets redder and he gets stronger if he litters...

..then his stripes get lighter and he gets weaker the more green he is.

By putting all the trash in the rocket, he's cleaning the school.

Thus weakening his powers.

This is crazy.

So crazy it just might work.

POLLUTER LAUGHS

Porter, look at his boots. He's losing power.

Yaah!

Ah...

I'm exhausted!

I need a drink.

I've got a water bottle on my belt.

-You haven't drank out of this before, have you?

-No.

Although I'm a filth-monger, I place a lot of value on hygiene.

Hold this, please.

Now place it on your rocket.

-It'll be the cherry on your trash-rocket sundae.

-Yes.

Pollution is the solution.

HE GROANS

What's... What's happening to me?

I feel like an empty... can in a ditch.

Well, by cleaning up and reusing trash, you were being eco-friendly.

But pollution is the solution.

Hey, Polluter!

Garbage day's early this week.

Arrrrgh!

Argh! Argh!

Oooowwwww!

Oh...

Pollution...is the...

Porter!

ROCKET ENGINE RUMBLES

All right. Let's get out there and stop that rocket!

Let's do it.

To the soccer field!

Whoa. Where am I?

I'm in the gym?

What sport is this?

CHEERING

This is the most elaborate Earth Week skit in history!

The rocket will explode and rain garbage down on the world!

Time for a little magic lock-on.

Gotcha.

BOOM!

CHEERING

-Yeah! Ha ha ha!

-Yes!

Double rainbow!

Double rainbow all the way!

What does it mean?!

I don't know!

I'm calling a locksmith.

Oh! Cellphone?!

Don't judge me!

I'm not.

Back-up phone.

I don't remember anything since yesterday's show.

Just smile, Serge.

And bow.

SERGE FARTS

Oh, er, a little air pollution.

Nothing Greener Man and Bin Boy can't fix.

Sorry.

CHEERING
