Listen and follow along
Transcript
It is a time of chaos.
Without a ruler, the galaxy is paralyzed by lawlessness, unrest, and of course the colossal All Wheat,
which looks like a flaming portal to a dimension of shit.
Now, Captain Dar and their intrepid crew must survive the looming threats, reunite a fractured galaxy, and meet weird bug creatures and stuff.
This
is Mission to Zinx.
Hey, AC53.
Oh, boy.
No, Dar, no, actually, Dar, you can.
No, no, you're the captain.
You should.
No, no, no, no.
I don't feel like I.
No, no, no, Dar, please.
I insist.
Hey, I'm not.
AC53.
No, see, Dar, I told you.
No, no, I know,
and then I thought I was being gracious.
And then I was
like, I promise, I swear to you, I will.
AC53.
Yes, Brad.
Now I just wanted her up.
Why don't I take Dar's question first?
What's going on?
I was just curious.
Do we know what the dress code is?
The invitation has the dress code that says taupe only.
Whoa.
So, whatever you want to do with that.
I'm not sure I even know what that means.
Sort of an off-life.
Okay.
I just, I want to make a good impression.
Well, excellent.
Now, uh, that being said, uh, do we think I can pull off this hat?
Do you want my opinion from a cultural perspective or on a personal level?
I want you to treat me like I have feelings.
Then, sure, it's great.
Thank you.
That's what I needed to hear.
I gotta say something.
I'm real excited about this party we got invited to.
I'm very good at parties.
Yeah, I noticed the bar is all stocked.
The cooler's full of stuff.
Yeah, in case there's any overflow, there's always the ships.
Well, you guys do whatever it is that you do.
The ships, we always have fun.
Yeah, there's sort of a second party for the ships.
Right, Barnes?
Oh, wow.
So many memories of all the different parties I've had.
Inside of me, outside of me, and other ships.
Well, is it fair to say that sometimes the ship party is the better party?
Sometimes it can go horribly wrong.
Oh, Tango Chip.
I'm so sorry.
Whoa, Whoa, like how?
I don't know if she wants to talk with it.
That sounds like I think she's kind of trailing off, so I think she wants to.
Bargie, you know, Jim Jimnerard died aboard the Bargarian Jade.
Was that because something went wrong or because something went?
Two, right.
Well, let's see Cliff.
Hey, Jim, catch this tummy.
All right.
Oh, is it full of flammable liquid?
Hell yeah.
All right.
Technically, he caught it.
See, that was actually a a very good party.
Also, in an interview years before, that's exactly how Jim Jerry.
Let's see, equip.
So, Jim, really?
For real?
Yeah, baby.
Throw a flammable liquid on me and watch me burn.
That's how I wanna go.
I thought he was to have a sort of a metaphor, but...
I think it was quite literal.
Hey, I got a question.
Yeah.
So, um, Lizard's gonna be at the party, and uh.
Yeah, right.
And, uh, Sisu.
So, yeah, Sisu's gonna be at the end of the day.
Sisu's the only reason we're going at Is there gonna be dancing?
Uh yeah, I mean, you know, it's a formal uh engagement.
I think technically the class would be demi-formal.
The tube only falls under the demi-formal calendar.
Thank you, C53.
That's very I've never been to a dance before.
I've uh I had training where we were supposed to infiltrate a dance and then like find the most prominent person and assassinate them, but I've there was no dance.
Well, but AJ, as part of your training, you learned to dance.
You took dance classes.
It's part of your conditioning, right?
No, it's not.
No, I never danced.
It was all tactical footwork.
Okay, but what Name some of the tactical footwork.
Flatball change, stepball change, shuffling to Balcazard.
I forgot you and I both know how to tap dance.
It's not tap dancing, it's tactical footwork.
Let's say a little shovel off to Bathkazar.
Wait, Dar AJ, how did you you just synchronized your moves exactly?
Right, well, yeah, that's part of it.
That's part of the tactical footwork.
Oh, sounds good.
Yeah, I thought, you know, I thought to keep my hands up like this.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Wave them back and forth, fingers out as far as they'll go, blocking.
Now, time's down!
AJ, do you have like taupe armor to wear or something?
Oh, yeah, I do.
No problem.
Whoa!
Desert!
Oh, you can control the color of your armor on your wrist.
Oh, yeah.
Wow.
What other colors can you do?
Pop up, got gamma you haven't even seen yet.
Uh, yeah, clearly.
Because it would, I would, you couldn't see me because of the camera.
Yeah, that's a good point.
She's got that loader droid, which has a blue collar, so
yeah, this may not be suitable for a demi-formal.
I'll find something.
I have another hat if you'd like to wear it.
No, thanks.
Wait, but
see,
you told me earlier that you liked my hat, and I have another one.
I think maybe that hat is just not for me.
I just think it would be really, really fun if we matched.
Sure, that's a fun idea.
Yeah, here you are.
Okay, I'll just put this under here.
Look, you're not wearing that to the party.
Because it would be a gross embarrassment to the entire crew if you did.
Here, Papa, come on.
Well, listen, I know I'm supposed to wear taupe, but like, I'm a Zemo knight.
I have to wear, you know, incoming box of pants.
Okay.
Again, these are my box of pants that I have.
Okay, Bargie, do you have a box of shirts or lasers?
Okay.
Probably fashion a shirt out of pants.
As for tonight, I will be wearing a demi-revealing outfit.
Oh, Bargie.
Oh, Bargie.
What was that clunk?
Oh, the exterior flash shielding is detached.
Wow, Bargie!
Thank you.
We need that later, I think.
I'll get it back, but now.
We have the oxygen tank.
Just showing off my assets tonight.
Okay, well, Bargie, I'm sure it looks really great.
All I'm seeing is just that part of your hatch is now floating next to us.
Oh, yeah.
Captain Dora, I have an incoming transition from temporary emergency emissions.
Hey.
Wow.
Hi.
Whoa, looking mostly good.
Hey, Nermit.
Oh, yeah, Nermit, don't worry.
Plex's gonna change.
Well, or I could be just the Zima who is there.
Zimas don't change what they wear based on other people.
Okay.
I guess I'll rip a hole in the crotch of these pants and use that as a shirt.
There you go, that's right.
My head will go through.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that'll look real good.
My head will go through the middle.
Emphasis on the demi.
You think anybody's gonna have a problem with the fact that my eye patch is black?
Should I just go patchless for this one?
You're gonna go free socket?
Nah, I'd risk the patch.
Okay, all right.
I have some tiny pants.
Wait, I'm gonna use these tiny pants to cover my eye.
No, you're just tiny.
There's a tiny pair of pants around your head.
Okay.
That's right.
Alright.
Yeah, looks jucked up.
We look great.
Crew, are we ready to go on a mission, not just with the normal attendees, but with Sisu Gundu herself?
Let's do it.
AJ's very excited.
Wow.
Listen, Nermit, I'm excited about this party, but can you remind me of exactly what we're doing there?
I mean, I feel like we're the crew, you know, we have to.
Well, in this case, you're an entourage.
Oh, so we're sort of there to make Sisu look more important at this point.
Absolutely.
Even though Sisu can't go in alone, she could if she wanted to, but she's got it all.
Right.
Sisu needs to roll deep, and that's us.
Nermit, you are so right.
This requires a much bigger hat.
Oh, yes, that's the issue.
Yeah.
And don't worry, I have one of these for everyone.
Good.
The Garpon plumage is honestly my favorite part.
Yes, Garfon plumage on a hat.
Where Manch goes, the galaxy follows.
Yeah, famously.
Wait, so the planet is going somewhere?
No.
And then all the other planets
sort of bellweather.
Where the galaxy is.
Okay, yeah.
Well, I definitely know what Bellwether is, so.
Probably shouldn't have used that word.
Attending this party as the crew representative of Sisu Gundu's power, organization, smarts, pizzazz.
Pizazz?
He's got pizzazz.
Yeah.
He's got a lot of pizzazz will set us on the course to galactic unification.
Let's go to this.
Let's go to this dance.
And how do I- guys, how do I look?
Is this a- I gotta say, Nermit, that little suit is
tailored very well to your friend.
Thank you.
And guys, look underneath my sport coat here.
You always gotta have the...
A zag boys!
Da-da-da-da-da.
Wow.
This is a taupe floral.
It's all taupe.
taupe flowers on a taupe background.
I hate it.
Can we say that?
Line up for Alpha Jack.
Okay, yes, that is tall.
Thank you.
Thank you.
That is tall.
I know.
Thank you.
That is tall.
It's desert, but sure.
Thank you.
Yes, that is tall.
Thank you, Cassa.
Found a pigment.
That is half.
Thank you.
And you?
Interesting design.
Very fashion forward.
Thank you.
Very damn eye.
Oh, yeah.
Whoa, what is your name?
Uh, uh, Pleck, Plec Deck Center.
Pleck Dex Center has one pushed over the area!
Oh, that was very quick.
Wow, hi, hello.
I had money on you being getting last.
I wasn't 100% sure.
you were.
I also can't believe that the hat didn't push me over the edge.
As a reward, he will be giving the dance of the night.
The dance of the night?
Oh, wow.
I guess it happened.
You are so lucky.
You get the solo.
Alright, everyone, get in a triangle formation behind Miss Gundu, and we're going in.
Now we do
Cecil Gundu.
Thank you.
Hi.
Yes.
Oh, so good to see you.
You look amazing.
Jeffrey,
your wife.
Oh, Samanthor.
You look great.
Bradley, look at you and that cute face.
Sisu's very good at connecting networks.
Sorry about your children.
Never seen hands more gladded.
This place is really nice.
Did anyone notice there are all these like camera bots?
Yeah, a lot of camera bots.
Apparently security or something.
Sison, girlfriend, thank you so much for coming.
coming.
She looks gorgeous.
Thank you.
I have been living in an ice planet.
Your skin looks great.
Thank you.
No pour.
See, go in.
Go in.
I'm going in.
Go in.
Do you see any?
None.
None.
Good for you.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thanks for coming.
This means so much.
And thanks for bringing all your little friends too.
Have you been to Manch before?
This is your first time.
I used to summer here with you who would not be named.
You know what I'm talking about?
Drama, yeah.
Can you name him, though?
No.
Okay.
I'm all about building bridges and moving forward.
You know, that's a really admirable thing.
I'm the opposite.
I sort of like tearing people down and...
Well, I'm going to go around and schmoozy-boozy, but here's my crew.
Let them be your crew for the night.
Oh, I was wondering who won dance of the evening.
Oh, welcome.
Oh, thank you for coming.
Thank you so much for coming.
I'm glad you go.
Oh, look at your pant outfit.
How fun is that?
Well, you know, I just thought I'd go for it, you know?
And your little hat.
Okay.
Sometimes I say the hat is wearing me.
Okay, I say that too.
Oh, yeah.
All right, have fun, crew.
Okay.
Don't go in the pool.
It's not hated.
Traystagram, this is your house?
Oh, well, it's mine and my husband's.
Sure, sure.
Yes, that makes sense.
Right.
But I do live here, yes.
It is beautiful.
Thank you so much.
Oh, now I know you're all fans.
We just put that to the side.
You've all seen our show, I know.
Yes,
wait, no, no, what show?
Hey, Jay, you're just playing just.
Oh, I love how coy you're being.
The real house husbands of Manch.
Sure.
What's the house husbands of manch?
So it's a reality show, unscripted television, essentially.
So it just follows the rich and fabulous of Manch and what we do and the parties and...
So is it just parties?
Yeah, kind of.
And we do yoga and we fight and, you know, everything.
We fight?
You like like kill each other.
We have yeah, I just watched a few seasons and last few seconds and season four got particularly like nice.
Oh, I love a fan.
Oh, I like that hat you're wearing, by the way.
Thank you.
For sure.
Thank you.
Thank you for saying so.
And I really think they mean it.
Forced onto my head, but thank you.
Well, listen, Steve, I had no idea that the paint was going to dry with the hat.
I can't remember it.
Exactly.
I had no idea this could happen.
Lean into it, hun.
Lean in.
So I know you all known as the cameras.
We are filming the season finale today.
I know, I know.
Okay.
Uh, hey, Pleck.
Yeah, what is it, Darling?
Since you're gonna be filmed tonight, um, you know, doing a solo dance, you and I should uh maybe sneak off here so I can give you a few pointers.
Okay, yeah.
Let's see if we can find a room in this mansion that is empty.
Unoccupied and also has great floors.
Sure.
Most of our rooms have great floors.
Is there a mirrored room with great floors?
Oh, there's plenty of mirrored rooms.
Just go upstairs, pick a room.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
So,
Tristogram girls this season.
Not great, honestly.
It's sort of all about the drama, and I haven't had much.
You know, I had some health issues that sort of
soured my.
no, I'm fine now, but one of my hands fell off.
And you're and you're you're kind of like your lips are swollen.
Is that part of that?
No, that's on purpose.
That's a beauty thing I did on purpose.
That's not an accident.
That's a thing I chose to do.
So you don't have enough drama?
That's the deal is with my hand issue, it sort of soured my storyline.
So I want to invite some like intergalactic fun people to come sort of spice it up.
When do they get here?
No, it's you.
Two guy.
Do you have anything more intragalactic?
So if you all can just help me out, I'm trying to inject some drama into this finale here, so
I'm realizing we're both wearing the same dress.
You knew I would be wearing this.
AJ, this might be drama.
And I just wanted to say you look incredible.
I'm so glad we can put all of our past things behind us and just be very pleasant.
No drama, friends.
No, no, this is a major drama.
Let's watch movies together and not talk about it.
Let's get drunk and throw drinks at each other, I'm saying.
Do you know what I mean?
Oh, no, Tracy Gray, I'm so sorry.
That was really
like a perfect opportunity for some drama.
I know.
I have this like energy about me that people just want to relax, and that's like not.
It's really antithetical to the drama of the show.
We can help with this.
Yeah, I have a gun.
Do you want me to shoot somebody?
Sure.
Wouldn't that be a scream?
Oh, that'd be great.
But make sure I'm like with you.
Gunfred.
Listen to this.
Diplomatic relationship.
We can open fire.
We can ain't party.
However, if you wanted to slap somebody,
sweet boy, it is your mama.
So good to see you.
Perfect.
Slapper.
Slap your mom?
Yeah.
Okay.
Slapper.
Alright.
You saw the giant dress she wore to my party.
It's my party.
I should be the star of my party.
I'll warn you, I'm incredibly strong, so this will hurt her.
She's at a lot of facial work, so her face really doesn't have much feeling left.
Right.
Hello?
Hi.
Uh, are you Tracy Gram's mom?
I am.
Uh, this is for the dress.
How dare you smack my mother?
Wait, what?
How dare you in my own house?
Someone slap the mother!
Someone's like, Oh, slap the water.
Who do you think you are?
Wait, I thought I was
in my party.
I can't believe that this is a party.
That's what you want me to do.
How dare you?
Whoa, whoa.
Hey, wait, what?
AJ, that was perfect.
That was great.
Thank you so much.
AJ, you're going to have to learn nuance in order to understand what's going on.
I think my mama's out cold, though.
I mean, you really hit her hard.
I'm up.
I'm fine.
No drama here.
No drama.
Continue.
Continue the party.
No, get.
What about the draft?
Just
don't get in there.
Surely there's an empty room up here somewhere.
Okay, okay, uh, let's just try this.
How dare you!
No, how dare me!
How dare you, dare me, I'll do it.
No, dare me, no, I dare you.
How dare you?
How dare we?
Do you want to buy my jewelry?
Yes.
Okay, closing that door.
Alright.
I know that your species has seven figures, but get them out of my base.
I swear, there is a cast member behind every door up here.
There's camera bots everywhere.
This is a.
We're in full production, I think, up here.
I didn't come here to make sense.
I didn't come here to make money.
I didn't.
I'll do something, everybody.
Cleck, I.
And the final Islak
goes to
Stefanor.
I think there's a different reality show being filmed in that room.
Wow, look at this room.
Oh,
yeah, it's some sort of lanai.
Just killing a mouse.
Oh, no!
That went right into that lawnmower.
Oh man.
Alright.
Alright, one last shot.
Welcome to the room of mirrors.
I mean, this is what we were looking for.
Yeah, yeah, okay.
Alright.
There's no drama here.
Only yourself.
Only the drama you bring with you.
Yeah, I guess so.
That was really well put.
That was so catchy, it was like a catchphrase that you just said.
Any issues you've had dwelling inside of you will come out, but there is no
time clap off.
Alright, Dara, I'm ready.
Tell me what I should do.
You're not ready yet, but you will be.
What's your rhythm like?
Let's just see those hips swivel, okay?
Come on.
Show me.
Show me your natural movement.
Okay, alright, like this?
Yep.
Just
let it all out.
I'm sorry, Pleck, that's what you think dancing is?
Sort of.
What?
You're not moving your arms.
Yeah.
It's more of like a knees thing for me?
But you're just pumping your knees up and down like you're marching in place.
Yeah.
You gotta loosen up.
You're so tense.
You're so tense.
You sort of grab my whole body when you do that.
You're afraid.
You're afraid to let go.
You just gotta whoosh.
Yeah, that checks out.
I can feel that you're hiding something.
Just, you know, start letting it out.
Let it all out.
Come on.
Okay.
Give it to me.
Uh, yeah, like this.
No, no, no.
You're thinking.
You're thinking too much.
Cleck, this is what we're gonna do.
I'm gonna, I'm just gonna spin you and spin you and spin you.
And you're just gonna, you're gonna feel it.
You're gonna, that vulnerability is just gonna spell out of you.
You're gonna, you're gonna move.
Go!
I'm unhappy!
Okay, so drama's done, right?
We're
this is just spinning.
Okay.
Yeah, that was the, you know, the opening shot.
I am sorry to interrupt here, but it really doesn't look good when my protector is slapping an older woman.
Hey, sister.
Yeah, yeah.
That's not me.
That doesn't look good to me.
Right, no.
And I'm not about that.
Yeah.
But it was for the drama.
I've never wanted to do anything that was bad for you.
Everyone, everyone, gather around.
I'm going to make a tote
on Tristram.
Thank you so much for coming.
I really appreciate having all my best friends and shit.
Phoenixes.
Oh, you.
Look at you and your taupe, too.
Okay, so this is a fun party that I'm throwing, but it's also the launch of my champagne line.
Everybody's in front of us.
us.
It's alcohol-free champagne for pets.
If someone could find my pet mouse somewhere, I developed this champagne with my pet mouse.
So, everyone, raise a glass to my success with my champagne.
And one of you here slap my mom and take this right in your face.
You think you're gonna slap my mother in my own house?
You've got another thing coming, mister.
AJ, get in there and throw champagne.
Oh, okay.
Wow, all the camera bots are circling.
This means this is good.
Oh, okay.
Uh, I'll throw this bottle bottle then.
Whoa, no, no, that's too much.
Oh, Natorsh got beamed.
Oh, I'm sorry, Natorsh.
I take orders.
Hi, it's Sisu again.
Oh, hey.
Hi, AJ.
Just miss coming.
Hi, you're coming on too strong.
Thank you.
I am strong.
Very strong.
Just spending the rest of the night not touching or doing anything.
Okay.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so happy.
I'm not a moment there with a champion.
We pushed it too far.
You told me to throw champagne.
I started started throwing champagne.
Listen, you're doing great.
Am I?
I feel like I have to go to this closet.
They're gonna give you a chiron on the bottom of the lower third that's gonna say friend of Tracey Griff.
A friend of?
That's a big, that's a big bump.
So, what do I do?
I have to go to this closet now.
I feel like you need a makeover.
What?
Like, that's the thing we do on these shows.
We get like things done and like change our looks up.
Uh, I just have like military armor.
Trace Griffin, please trust me.
I'll take care of you.
Thank you so much.
No problem.
I'm the the producer for the show.
Oh, goodness.
That's...
Wanna hear some hot goss?
Oh, um, yeah, absolutely.
If Trace to Gram doesn't create enough drama, you know what we're gonna do?
Probably, like, show will get canceled.
I'm gonna kill her.
Oh.
Oh, oh, look at that little scooter.
Oh, no.
Tristogram?
Have you seen the producer anywhere?
Uh, yeah, the little producer just scooted off.
Right, I'm trying to find and figure out how it's going.
I think it's going great so far.
Well, Well, they said it's going really good.
They just pointed out one little note:
that if there isn't sufficient drama, they're gonna like kill you.
Oh.
Okay.
No, that's something I signed a contract for.
Sure, I knew that.
Did she seem excited about my level of drama?
Because I really thought I was injecting a lot of drama.
I thought there was so much more.
I got my mom smacked.
Do you know what I mean?
We had a champagne fight.
I believe, like, if they want more than that, it's like the high bar.
Did you ever see my mouse, by the way?
I can't find my mouse.
Uh, no, I'm sure they're around.
I believe that we will get the drama level up and you will survive.
Why are you looking away from me?
Because, no, there's no one spelling this right now, and I just want to save all the good things for one of these.
You're just trailing.
No, I'm turning my mic pack off.
No, that you need more drama.
Turning a mic pack off is giving up.
The truth is, I'm done with this.
You know what I mean?
The drama isn't for me.
I just want to have like a nice, peaceful life drink.
Yes, Grammy, take that back.
You're going to be dramatic and you're going to live.
Okay.
I'm going to live.
Oh, that's right.
Okay.
Um, are you that little on purpose?
Your pants are just such a good question.
No, no, by guess, by accident?
Okay,
it's okay.
I just, I feel like ever since I defeated the Emperor, I don't have a purpose anymore.
I totally get that.
I really do.
I don't even know what the all-weed is.
Is it better?
Is it worse?
What have I done?
Keep letting it out.
This is all part of the process.
I wanted to hear Teama, but I feel like I just did it for a while, and now I can't do it anymore.
Yeah, yeah.
No, this is good.
Oh, the uglier the cry, the better.
And now I have to dance in front of people and I don't know how to dance.
And I'm gonna make a fool of myself and I'm wearing pants for a shirt.
And now I'm gonna hear voices in my head.
Pretty sure it's Peter the Emperor.
I don't know.
Okay, now we're getting hysterical, okay?
Uh.
I'm sorry, Tara, I just.
It
it's really hard.
It's hard to feel like you had a purpose and now you don't.
I know.
You know what?
Here, stand up.
Stand up.
Okay.
Yeah, no, just keep going.
Keep feeling that.
Let the sobbing shudder through your body.
You need this.
Yep, keep going.
No, no, you're not done yet.
What?
Keep going.
You want me to go back then?
I was just feeling a little bit better.
I don't want you to suppress this.
I want you to feel it.
Okay.
The thing that I
created inadvertently killed Bino
and destroyed Jeknar already.
And who knows?
How many lives
will be lost because of me?
You're doing it.
I thought I had done it.
Keep going.
You're beautiful.
You're a dancer.
So let me present you the new and improved
AJ284.
Oh my gosh.
You look amazing, hon.
I'm not in armor anymore.
And
yeah, and I also have bangs.
Bangs.
You got bangs.
Yeah, I don't love them.
I don't know.
They don't look great with your face shape.
That is the one trick.
I wish I had a good one.
But good for you, you know?
Can I ask a dumb question?
I'm sorry.
I don't know your friends that well.
I was walking by the mirror room and I heard a couple people inside and it sounded like there was crying.
Are Dar and Pleck a thing?
Do you know what I mean?
I mean that's not a problem.
Are you sure?
There's the opposite of that.
No, there's definitely not.
I don't think.
Right?
They're not.
It would be a surprise.
The lizard and Dar used to chuck.
Yeah, well, we can just, you know, it could be happening in.
Oh, is that drama?
That's drama.
Okay.
All right.
I mean, I also, if you see my mouse, can you grab him real quick?
Because I really feel like I should make a single.
I know.
clone of CC's ex-husband, who is presumed dead?
Truly good nose?
Drama.
Rolfus, I...
What are you...
Wow.
Okay.
I would say you look good, but you don't.
I.
What is that on your head?
I got bang.
Bangs, yeah.
Not good for your face.
Would you like to
do tactical footwork with me?
Rolfus, why would I want to dance with my ex-husband?
Wow, that music.
And you were presumed dead.
I mourned your death, Rolfus.
We have a son.
We are
in an ice planet doing mathematical equations right now.
Why should you do that?
Going one plus zero is one, because there's only one parrot who's alive.
Now kiss me on my mouth.
What?
What's up?
You son of a Gorth!
You're gonna have to bleed that.
What's happening?
I hate drama.
I'm gonna go after him.
I'll be right back.
Wow.
Come back.
Don't be this.
Hey, hey, Donius.
Yeah, oh, yeah.
Oh, it's the producer.
Yeah.
Wow.
Hey, Jace, hold off.
Come here, join me at the Lanai.
What's going on with you?
I don't know.
Everyone's yelling at me.
Everyone's calling you different names.
I'm confused, hon.
Nothing hurt more than getting slapped by somebody that you care about.
Have you told them you care about them?
Uh, wasn't that what I just tried to do, or trying is not the same as doing.
Why?
Oh, I wish they got that on camera.
That'd be a good clip for them to show.
Do you want me to get a bot bot to come over and film?
Go back down there.
Reveal your heart's desire.
Can you write something down for me to say?
It's unscripted, hon.
That's the whole point.
Okay.
All right.
The script is within.
All right.
That was a good thing, too.
I should say that when the cameras are rolling on me.
I know.
Maybe we should let the bangs go.
Yeah, I agree.
This week on House Husbands, a house party gets messy.
This is for the dress.
How dare you smack my mother?
This is Real House Husbands of Manch,
featuring Trace Tigram.
I'm Trace Tegram, and I may be rich, but I'm also a bad person.
Natorsh.
I'm Natorsch, and if I'm not torching relationships, I'm drinking a martini.
Sex Morphia!
I'm Sex Morphia, and these 18 fingers are in your face.
Polyminius Nouch.
I'm Polyminius Nouch, and I'll give a couch.
Melanomia.
I'm Melanomia.
And life might be a cabaret.
But this is a cab of death ray.
And this week, welcome Sisu Gundu.
I'm Sisu, and the only thing tighter than my thighs are my dreams for the future.
AJ2884.
Uh...
What?
C-53.
I'm C-53.
You better save the drama for Quid's Llama, the forest man of the quid system.
Dar's hat.
I'm Dar's Hat.
It ain't hat bad.
Pleck Dexetter.
I'm Pleck Deck Setter.
I'm still working on my catchphrase.
So if you can come back to me at the end, that'd be with special guest, the Bargerian Jade.
I'm Baji, and although I was not present in this episode,
I still got it.
Going on.
Oh, okay, Lawa.
Hello?
Hello?
Well,
honestly.
And as always.
I'm Mr.
Squeaks, and no one throws Mrs.
Squeaks in the lawnmower.
Got it.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's now time for the most dramatic event of the evening!
The dance of the best costume!
No, darl.
I've just been up here sobbing like like a baby this whole time.
I haven't learned to dance at all.
No, you have.
Look at you.
You've been moving around this room frantic, anxious, out of your mind.
You're gonna be perfect.
All right, I'll give it a shot.
And no pressure, but a reminder that everything relies on this one dash.
How is that possible?
What does that mean?
One life hangs in the balance.
Oh no, the stakes are higher than we thought.
Oh.
We must have missed something.
What happened down there while we were gone?
I mean, you and I have been up here alone this whole time.
What are you doing in here, by the way?
Your face is so wet.
Oh, no, just the two of us have been really connecting, you know.
Is that why you're so sweaty?
I mean, it was part of it.
Yeah, I mean, also
there's some tears with the sweat from the bottom.
I understand that, Trusty.
You know, I didn't mean to push Plex so hard.
Sometimes you just gotta get in there deep with somebody.
Oh my god.
Yes, let's head down.
Yeah, slap on the butt.
We're ready.
Okay.
Let's go downstairs and do the dance.
Real quick, has anyone seen my mouse?
My pet mouse is running.
I haven't been able to find him, and it's starting to freak me out a little bit.
Well, we did see a mouse being killed by a gardener in the middle.
Killed?
What?
Yeah, the custodian sort of lawnmower.
That's right.
Yeah.
Mrs.
Squeaks was in a la- No!
Ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in between, again, thank you so much for coming tonight.
And as promised,
the dance of the evening.
We're just instinctively going to back away to form a pants for you.
Hello, everyone.
Thank you for having me.
I'd like to thank the judges for recognizing my pants costume.
And with pants like these, how about a dance like this?
I can't do this.
I can't do this.
I'm so scared.
No, no, get out of the corner.
I need you.
I need your help.
Remember it, Bash.
Look, how scared you hook up with Dar!
What?
No!
I heard you hooked up with Dar in the dance room.
No, not at all.
Listen, I was crying mostly.
That's what happens when you hook up with Dar.
What?
See, Sundown, I'm pregnant.
What?
What?
What?
What?
Who did you sleep with?
You're the one who
Everybody stop
This is supposed to be a moment for dance
you move so effortlessly.
I'm plastically trained, so it's inspiring.
I just want you to know that this dance is actually more like a metaphor because you really aren't alone.
You've always got one of us.
The lift!
They did the lift!
They did the overhead lift!
They went forward and they did it!
Look at all those pants legs in the wind.
Oh my god!
Thank you, Darling.
I love you.
What?
What?
Ow!
Ow!
Oh!
Ow!
Ow!
Take it back!
Mrs.
Squinks is dead!
And the burgerer is in this room!
My champagne line for pets, but it's for nothing without Mrs.
Squeaks.
Who's that person who slapped me?
Excuse me, sir.
You're a nut toe.
Be stupid.
I'm not told.
Not to be.
Hey, Pleck, do you feel like we'd missed a lot?
Yeah, I don't have any idea what's going on down here.
Is there a gas leak on the first floor or something?
What's happening?
There's a gas leak.
I'm just gonna have this quick little cigarette over here.
Just gonna light a quick little cigarette.
Oh man, you know what guys?
That party was a lot crazier than I thought it was.
Wow.
Yeah.
Oh, oh, oh.
Great job dancing off that fire.
Very well done.
Yeah.
Yeah, thank you.
You know, I you taught me everything I know.
Okay, yeah.
And even though he hit me a couple of times because he thought I hooked up with Dar, it's good to see Nerman again.
You know?
It's always a pleasure.
Oh, yeah, totally.
And it was kind of nice to see that side of Nerman again.
AJ, I have an idea.
Oh.
Hey!
Down here.
Even their own screen is down there.
Yeah, they should point the camera down.
You saved Trace to Graham's life.
Oh.
Oh, great.
Wait,
spin-off?
Spin-off?
I don't know.
I didn't like any of that.
I was confused and upset.
You come with so much drama, and we like it.
But I don't.
Hey, Bargy, what do you think does that sound like a good deal here in development?
Sorry, I'm still at the ship party.
What?
So, I guess we're at the party.
I thought we took off already.
One of the last ones.
This
long-winded Willzo is still talking to me.
And as I was saying, this is a picture of my stepdaughter, Matilda.
Not from the first marriage.
No, not from the first marriage.
My current marriage, stepdaughter, Matilda.
And you know, she's trying to get into development.
You know,
you're not going to be able to do that.
Oh, Captain Darr, I have an incoming transmission from Sisu Gondu.
Oh, okay.
Please put a server right away.
Hello, crew.
Hi, it's Sisu Gondu.
Ooh, wow.
Sisu, that hat looks amazing on you.
Thank you.
It's very tiny, but it fits my jawline.
Yeah, that's a hat that works.
I just wanted to thank you, kind of, for the work you did.
I think it was a successful party, for sure.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I saw someone.
I didn't necessarily want to see.
I'm gonna see what I see all about.
I am
fine.
Thank you very much.
I love everyone loving each other.
Okay, well,
I have a lot more work to do because I'm all about positivity and moving forward.
Yes.
Great.
Um,
keep up the good work, I guess.
Thank you.
Thank you.
You know, Dar,
I really appreciate you talking me through some of that stuff.
And
maybe I really do need to start thinking about what's next for old Pleck Dexetter.
Well, it's not dancing, it's definitely not dancing.
No, yeah, no, I wasn't thinking that.
That's a level of drama nobody needs.
Well, Pleck, as I always say, you better save the drama for Quincelama
system.
It's gravity
so powerful that even drama can ask it.
That seems kind of a heady catchphrase, though, isn't it?
That's my catchphrase.
Okay.
I'm going to go put regular clothes on.
Yeah.
That's my pants.
What if I'm Pants Guy, though, now?
I don't think this is also you.
This is an award-winning outfit.
No dance, no pants.
Back to the shorts.
You got it.
Shorts Deck Setter back in action.
Shorts, Deck Setter.
That should have been my catchphrase.
