All Grown Up! (2003–2008): Season 3, Episode 3 - Yu-Gotta-Go - full transcript
The whole school has caught Yu-Gotta-Go fever, a role playing card game, except Chuckie. When he finally starts playing, it becomes an obsession, and he's hired by Angelica to do her chores in exchange for more cards. He becomes one of the school's elite players, but in the pursuit of an elusive card, he nearly parts with the valuable stamp collection that Chas has passed down to him.

Out of the way, Nar-Do.
The Tomb of Dos is ours now.
Why, Yu-Got.
So, the student has returned
to best his master.
Yes, it is now my turn
to teach you.
Do you really think your Yu-
Gotta-Go cards can beat mine?
Eeny, meeny, miney...
go!
GIRL:
It's the Robotic Sushi Chef!
What do we do,
Yu-Got?
Try this on for size, Nar-Do.
School's out.
Not yet, Nar-Do.
It is now.
Say hello
to my Atomic Mime card.
Atomic Mime, meet Cyber Clause.
Ho-ho-ho.
Ho-ho-ho.
Ho-ho.
What?!
Ho-ho-ho-ho.
( cries out )
Quick--
to the Tomb of Dos.
Whoa!
TOMMY:
Dil!
I told you to move
your chocolate milk.
My card's all ruined now.
How could you play
a Two-Headed Eel card
against the Robotic
Sushi Chef?
You know it's only good
against edible cards.
Now, Lillian, don't get mad--
it's just a game.
Haven't you been
on the international
Web site?
You should be following Bjorn
from Reykjavick.
That guy can play.
See why I hate playing
tetherball with her?
Did you just say something?
Because her voice is still
ringing in my cranium.
Dil, slide over.
Let a pro show you
how it's done.
Want to get your nails done
after school?
French tip, pedicure,
get all bling-blinged out?
I'm up.
Did you ask Samantha?
Not yet-- hold on.
Hold on. Another call.
What's up, Ange?
Want to get
your nails done
after school?
LIL:
You threw your Eternal Skeleton?
Where did you learn your basics?
Fire, Earth, Wind,
then your Immortals.
Uh-oh.
The Shark.
He's got
the most cards
this side
of high school.
They even say he's got
the Red-Mirrored Dragon.
What do you think,
Lillian?
I think he just
looked at me.
King me.
He thinks
he's so great.
Let's see him play a game
that takes real skill.
Hmm...
Oh, yeah.
Yes!
TOMMY:
Come on, Chuckie.
Let's play Yu-Gotta-Go.
No, thanks.
I refuse to be a victim
to this crass merchandising.
Last month it was
Laser Kong Cards,
next month,
something else.
And what are you left with?
A very expensive set
of bookmarks.
I won't play
either, Tommy,
but I really like
to watch.
GIRL:
...awesome card.
Wait till you see this new card
that I got.
It is so awesome.
BOY:
That one's great.
Spell card!
( kids chattering excitedly )
Chuckie,
can you help me
stick pipe cleaners
into Albert's head?
Not right now.
Coming through.
Don't want to miss
too much
of the Satellite Channel.
Uh, Dad...
Yes, Chuckie.
TV ANNOUNCER:
Collect your own
Yu-Gotta-Go monsters
and let them go medieval
on your friends.
Be the first one on your block
to be the last one
on your block.
Yu-Gotta-Go cards.
Live monsters not included.
CHUCKIE:
Uh, Dad,
I know you just advanced me
my allowance
for the advance on my allowance
I took two weeks ago, but...
could I have $20
for Yu-Gotta-Go cards, please?
Sorry, son.
You get your next allowance
in three weeks.
You can buy them then.
( gasps )
There's precipitation
in Providence!
But I'm the only one in school
without them.
And you know why?
Because I'm fiscally
irresponsible?
Because you're
too smart to follow
the "in" crowd.
That's why it's time
you started down
your own path of glory
in the exciting
world of...
What? What?!
Stamp collecting.
( sighs )
My dad started this for me
when I was your age.
Where else can you find famous
haircuts of the 19th century?
Well, not on
Yu-Gotta-Go cards.
Or, my personal favorite,
heroic doggies
of the Civil War.
( unenthusiastically ):
Wow.
Here, son, remember:
Enjoy them, but respect them.
They're a piece of history
that can't be replaced.
( dejectedly ):
I'll be careful.
Thanks, Dad.
You forgot your album.
Right.
Listen to my words, Jonathan.
You tell that chain of stores,
if they don't meet my demands
they can say sayonara
to Yu-Gotta-Go cards
and sayonara to
their customers.
( phone beeps )
And you!
( gulps )
How could you run up
a cell phone bill
like this?
Now, I could give you
a long, drawn-out lecture,
but I have a zillion
phone calls to make.
You're not going
to ground me, are you?
In that amusement park
you call a bedroom?
Fat chance.
You, young lady, are going
to be responsible
for cleaning the house
for a whole week.
Now give me your phone.
My...
phone?
Oh, please!
Not the phone!
What if it's an emergency?
Like I'm late for class and
don't know what time it is!
Well, that's what
a watch is for.
A phone is for talking
and taking digital pictures.
It's about time
you learned a little
responsibility
around here.
Now go get
the pail, the mop
and the detergent.
Where are they?
I have no idea.
( groans )
( all chattering )
Please! Goucho pants?
They are so más tarde.
Later.
You can't fool me.
I saw that.
I-I-I can explain.
See, my mom...
Don't bother.
I saw you on your phone.
You did?
I mean, you bet you did.
I text-messaged you five times
and you didn't even
answer me once.
Just for that,
you're X'd from my text.
( groans )
Hey, Finster.
( mumbles )
Look at them
talking away
while I'm phoneless.
This is the worst day
of my life.
Not worse than mine.
Oh, yeah?
I don't have my cell phone
and had to get up a whole five
minutes early to make my bed!
Well, I am the only kid
without Yu-Gotta-Go cards.
You know, the company
my mom works for
distributes those cards.
We've got a whole closet
full of them at home.
Closet full?
Really?
Finster, this could be the start
of a beautiful friendship.
I'll... call... you... late.
I'm... breaking... up.
I am so talking
on my cell phone.
Fine!
Fine!
I'm on a land line.
Happy?
But I bet you can't do this.
There is something to be said
for the old school.
( squeaks )
That'll do.
( sighs with relief )
I'm not sure I can open these.
( convulsing )
Hey, I just made you clean
that carpet.
Sorry.
( gasps )
You ready for this,
Chuckie?
You betcha, I'm pysched!
Out.
( laughs )
( cheering ):
Yay!
( kids chattering )
Let's go get Zebra Smoothies
at the Java Lava.
Okay.
Who's next?
Finster?
What? Who? Me? Huh?
You see any other Finster here?
TOMMY:
Come on, Chuckie.
You can do this.
( snickers )
I'll play my Poison Pink Puppy.
And I raise you
a Fanged Fire Master.
( all gasp )
Play your
Reckless Wizard card.
Put it back.
Go with your
Electric Knight card.
( gasps )
Hey.
What?
You won!
I did.
I won!
( kids laughing and exclaiming )
Way to go, Chuckie!
Let's go.
Smoothies at the Java Lava
on me.
But I won!
After the game--
I promise.
Okay.
Who's up next?
KIMI:
Think he'll be okay?
You know how crazy
he gets about things.
Remember how obsessive
he was about clowns?
Chuckie?
Aw, he'll be all right.
( Chuckie laughing maniacally )
I think.
( Chuckie laughing
and babbling maniacally )
CHUCKIE:
"Tuesday, October 1.
"Tried stuffing bra--
too lopsided.
Went with midriff top instead."
ANGELICA:
Hey!
Don't you have any respect
for people's privacy?
Their dignity?
Here.
There's an oven
with your name on it
and an exploded enchilada
inside.
Here.
Another deck.
( babbling )
( kids exclaiming )
I see something
in your eyes, dude--
something I've never
seen there before.
I call it amplitude, my man.
No.
e crust.
Don't you wash your
face in the morning?
To those who are about to die,
we salute you.
Yu-Got.
You and your two friends
back so soon?
You're not Yu-Got.
My name's Chuckie and the only
two friends I brought
are Thunder and Lightning.
Eeny, meeny, miney...
Go!
( gunfire )
You were holding
an Atomic Mime card?
Yep--
silent but deadly.
Bye-bye.
( gunfire )
( hollering )
( laser zapping )
( laughing ):
Yeah!
( whooping )
( everyone shouting
and cheering )
All right, Chuckie!
Whoo-hoo, Chuckie, you are
smoking the competition.
I am hot, baby-- red-hot.
( slurps then exhales )
I know it's amazing,
but we should have been
out of here three hours ago.
Stop now?
Quitting's for losers.
( all gasping and whispering )
Uh-oh--
the Shark.
The Shark!
He doesn't even know I exist.
I've been hearing your name
on the street, Finster.
You're going down, old school.
You're in my house now, Edgar.
A flying rhino.
Iced...
by my tundra queen.
( gasps )
( gasps )
( laughs )
( all grumbling and murmuring )
You played your
flying rhino card?
Don't you people read
the Yu-Gotta-Go newsletter?
It felt so great to be
as strong as... as Yu-Got.
I just got to get it back,
Tommy.
But you can't beat the Shark.
He's got better cards than you.
He does now,
but wait till I surprise him
with my Red-Mirrored
Dragon card.
The Finstar will not be denied.
The Finstar?
I'm trying out new nicknames.
But you don't have
the Red-Mirrored Dragon.
Not yet, but I will.
Yep.
Metal Mouth will taste
victory again.
Uh... Metal Mouth?
Not a good one either?
How about the Crimson Destroyer?
Chuckie, just forget
about Yu-Gotta-Go, okay?
( whistle tooting )
CHUCKIE:
Psst.
( whispers ):
Angelica, psst.
Angelica!
Hey!
What's the big idea?
I need more cards, Angelica.
I've got a great idea.
Why don't I come by after school
and start on those rain gutters?
You're off the books, Finster.
My mom was
so proud of the job I did,
I don't have to do it anymore.
I even got my
phone back. See?
( bell rings,
coach blows whistle )
Get lost-- it's time
to get out of these
prison blues.
Fine-- I'll figure out another
way to get those cards.
Gee, Finster, it's like
you can't live without them.
I'd look at that if I were you.
No one's called me
in five minutes.
What's up with that?
I'd better call someone
and see why
no one's called.
Great, no cards.
I gotta do something.
Oh, think, Chuckie-- think.
( grunts and groans )
Whoa!
( groans )
( grunts )
( Chuckie muttering,
metal clattering )
Chuckie?
( Chuckie laughs maniacally,
glass breaks )
He was looking for change
to buy more Yu-Gotta-Go cards.
( box crashes )
Where is he now?
( Chuckie panting and grunting )
I'm worried
about him, Tommy.
Broken, broken,
broken.
What're you doing, Chuckie?
Looking for stuff to sell.
Oh, hi, Tommy. Think anybody'd
buy my old sneakers
that used to light up?
Do they still
smell like feet?
No, not really.
( sniffs )
A little.
I really need
that Red-Mirrored Dragon card.
( Chuckie panting )
My set of Happy Blocks.
That's my set of Happy Blocks.
It is?
You want to buy it back?
( sighs )
Hey, come on,
all our friends
are down at the mall.
Let's go join them.
The mall? Perfect!
Betty Katey's All-Star
Collectibles
has a whole slew
of Yu-Gotta-Go cards.
( groans )
I don't like what
this game's done
to you, Chuckie.
It hasn't done anything
except make my heart race
race with excitement
and give me goose bumps
all over my arms.
Aw, you don't
need those cards
to feel that way;
you just think you do.
Why don't you work on your
stamp collection instead?
Dad said it was really valuable.
It is?
No.
You can't sell
your stamp album.
Yeah, Chuckie.
Dad will go ballistic.
You know how veiny
his head gets.
I'm not selling the whole thing.
I'll trade one tinsy little
stamp for one deck of cards.
If you do, you'll be sorry.
Someday you're gonna
look in that mirror
and you're not gonna
like what you see.
What else is new?
Oh, you're right.
I can't do it.
Yes!
CHUCKIE:
Bet I can.
Hey!
Hey!
Okay, we caught
a break.
Chuckie got sidetracked
trying on...
( pop music playing )
( grunting )
...Yu-Gotta-Go
sunglasses.
Whatever we do,
we can't let him near...
...near Betty Katey's
All-Star Collectibles.
Dil!
And... split.
( music stops, pants rip )
Uh-oh...
my pants.
ANGELICA:
Sorry, guys, but I just don't
see how this is my problem.
But you're the one who started
my brother playing that game.
Hey, it's not my fault
he has no self-control.
Someone waved this shiny object
in front of his face,
and he blindly followed.
Ow! Metallic pink.
That's a yes.
There he is.
Hey, Chuck, let's go
to the pet store
and watch the fighting fish
eat each other.
No, thanks.
Know what we haven't
done in a long time?
Go into one of the movie
theaters and moo.
How about we go
to the tuxedo store
and swap heads
on the mannequins?
Sounds good,
but not today.
Hey-- you, me
at Astro-Zone
playing some
Terror Wheel.
I'll spot you
four points.
Okay, six.
I know what you guys are trying
to do and I appreciate it,
but I know what I am doing.
You guys wait here.
I'd better do
this alone.
CHUCKIE:
Got it, got it, got it.
Not a Red-Mirrored Dragon
in the bunch.
Well, good, you tried.
Let's go.
Another deck,
my good man.
Chuckie.
Last one, I swear.
One more.
The Red-Mirrored Dragon's
got to be here.
It just has to.
Chuckie... no!
( straining )
Here.
Please, please, please.
I'm sorry, Chuckie.
( gasps )
There's still one pack left.
Oh, what are you
gonna buy it with?
You sold your stamp.
( Chuckie guffawing )
Chuckie, you're gonna
get in trouble.
Hey, what cheapskate threw
a button in here?
That's it,
I'm going in.
95... 96... 97...
Uh, a dollar, eight.
Remember
what I said
about looking
in the mirror
and not liking
what you see?
Well, look,
Chuckie. Look!
What do you see?
( gasps ):
A silver dollar!
Look at me.
I'm stealing pennies
from a fountain.
How many children's wishes
have I destroyed?
I just wanted to feel
like a winner
so that for once
I'd feel like somebody.
Tommy, I could have been
the Crimson Destroyer.
You are somebody,
to us.
You're the best big brother.
We're here for you, Chuckie.
I'll treat you
to a Zebra Smoothie.
Out of the agua, dude.
Thanks, guys.
And thanks, Tommy.
You were right,
I do have a problem.
A big problem!
I traded away Dad's
stamp collection.
He is gonna
kill me!
Finster, you freak,
that money's for
seeing-eye dogs.
What are you
doing here?
Uh... I got thinking
about what it's like
to be hooked on something.
Chuckie and his cards,
me and my phone and...
Hey, if we're not there for
each other for the bad times,
then what kind
of friends
are we?
Don't worry.
I didn't tell anyone
what was in your diary.
Oh... well...
See you.
Yet.
Okay... what do
you want?
Chuckie sold all
his stamps for cards.
No way that store
will give them back.
We'll see about that.
ANGELICA:
Listen to my words, Jonathan.
My mother is CFO of the company
that distributes those cards,
and she can make your life
a living nightmare.
Trust me on this.
M-M-M-My name's Fred.
If you don't meet
my demands,
you can say sayonara
to Yu-Gotta-Go cards
and sayonara to
your customers.
( whispering ):
Do you really do
all that?
No, but they
don't know that.
( all laughing )
I don't know what to say,
you guys,
except I am off
Yu-Gotta-Go forever.
( quavering )
Keep walking.
Just keep walking.
CHAS:
What're you doing there,
Chuckie?
Ah, nothing. Just putting
some junk away-- forever.
I've been thinking, Dad.
Can we go to the post
office after school?
The new commemorative
stamps came out today.
Oh, Chuckie, I didn't think
you were interested.
Why, you betcha.
How about after
the post office,
we snag some ice cream?
And let's throw
fate to the wind:
vanilla
with sprinkles.
Dad, why are you smiling
like that guy downtown
who talks to trees?
Well, I know how much you had
your heart set on them,
so here--
your very own
Yu-Gotta-Go cards.
CHUCKIE ( laughing ):
The Red-Mirrored Dragon.
CHUCKIE:
That was wicked awesome.
Let's go again!
CHAS:
Oh, there's precipitation
in Providence!
Four, three, two, one!

( squeaks )
That'll do.
( sighs with relief )
I'm not sure I can open these.
( convulsing )
Hey, I just made you clean
that carpet.
Sorry.
( gasps )
You ready for this,
Chuckie?
You betcha, I'm pysched!
Out.
( laughs )
( cheering ):
Yay!
( kids chattering )
Let's go get Zebra Smoothies
at the Java Lava.
Okay.
Who's next?
Finster?
What? Who? Me? Huh?
You see any other Finster here?
TOMMY:
Come on, Chuckie.
You can do this.
( snickers )
I'll play my Poison Pink Puppy.
And I raise you
a Fanged Fire Master.
( all gasp )
Play your
Reckless Wizard card.
Put it back.
Go with your
Electric Knight card.
( gasps )
Hey.
What?
You won!
I did.
I won!
( kids laughing and exclaiming )
Way to go, Chuckie!
Let's go.
Smoothies at the Java Lava
on me.
But I won!
After the game--
I promise.
Okay.
Who's up next?
KIMI:
Think he'll be okay?
You know how crazy
he gets about things.
Remember how obsessive
he was about clowns?
Chuckie?
Aw, he'll be all right.
( Chuckie laughing maniacally )
I think.
( Chuckie laughing
and babbling maniacally )
CHUCKIE:
"Tuesday, October 1.
"Tried stuffing bra--
too lopsided.
Went with midriff top instead."
ANGELICA:
Hey!
Don't you have any respect
for people's privacy?
Their dignity?
Here.
There's an oven
with your name on it
and an exploded enchilada
inside.
Here.
Another deck.
( babbling )
( kids exclaiming )
I see something
in your eyes, dude--
something I've never
seen there before.
I call it amplitude, my man.
No.
e crust.
Don't you wash your
face in the morning?
To those who are about to die,
we salute you.
Yu-Got.
You and your two friends
back so soon?
You're not Yu-Got.
My name's Chuckie and the only
two friends I brought
are Thunder and Lightning.
Eeny, meeny, miney...
Go!
( gunfire )
You were holding
an Atomic Mime card?
Yep--
silent but deadly.
Bye-bye.
( gunfire )
( hollering )
( laser zapping )
( laughing ):
Yeah!
( whooping )
( everyone shouting
and cheering )
All right, Chuckie!
Whoo-hoo, Chuckie, you are
smoking the competition.
I am hot, baby-- red-hot.
( slurps then exhales )
I know it's amazing,
but we should have been
out of here three hours ago.
Stop now?
Quitting's for losers.
( all gasping and whispering )
Uh-oh--
the Shark.
The Shark!
He doesn't even know I exist.
I've been hearing your name
on the street, Finster.
You're going down, old school.
You're in my house now, Edgar.
A flying rhino.
Iced...
by my tundra queen.
( gasps )
( gasps )
( laughs )
( all grumbling and murmuring )
You played your
flying rhino card?
Don't you people read
the Yu-Gotta-Go newsletter?
It felt so great to be
as strong as... as Yu-Got.
I just got to get it back,
Tommy.
But you can't beat the Shark.
He's got better cards than you.
He does now,
but wait till I surprise him
with my Red-Mirrored
Dragon card.
The Finstar will not be denied.
The Finstar?
I'm trying out new nicknames.
But you don't have
the Red-Mirrored Dragon.
Not yet, but I will.
Yep.
Metal Mouth will taste
victory again.
Uh... Metal Mouth?
Not a good one either?
How about the Crimson Destroyer?
Chuckie, just forget
about Yu-Gotta-Go, okay?
( whistle tooting )
CHUCKIE:
Psst.
( whispers ):
Angelica, psst.
Angelica!
Hey!
What's the big idea?
I need more cards, Angelica.
I've got a great idea.
Why don't I come by after school
and start on those rain gutters?
You're off the books, Finster.
My mom was
so proud of the job I did,
I don't have to do it anymore.
I even got my
phone back. See?
( bell rings,
coach blows whistle )
Get lost-- it's time
to get out of these
prison blues.
Fine-- I'll figure out another
way to get those cards.
Gee, Finster, it's like
you can't live without them.
I'd look at that if I were you.
No one's called me
in five minutes.
What's up with that?
I'd better call someone
and see why
no one's called.
Great, no cards.
I gotta do something.
Oh, think, Chuckie-- think.
( grunts and groans )
Whoa!
( groans )
( grunts )
( Chuckie muttering,
metal clattering )
Chuckie?
( Chuckie laughs maniacally,
glass breaks )
He was looking for change
to buy more Yu-Gotta-Go cards.
( box crashes )
Where is he now?
( Chuckie panting and grunting )
I'm worried
about him, Tommy.
Broken, broken,
broken.
What're you doing, Chuckie?
Looking for stuff to sell.
Oh, hi, Tommy. Think anybody'd
buy my old sneakers
that used to light up?
Do they still
smell like feet?
No, not really.
( sniffs )
A little.
I really need
that Red-Mirrored Dragon card.
( Chuckie panting )
My set of Happy Blocks.
That's my set of Happy Blocks.
It is?
You want to buy it back?
( sighs )
Hey, come on,
all our friends
are down at the mall.
Let's go join them.
The mall? Perfect!
Betty Katey's All-Star
Collectibles
has a whole slew
of Yu-Gotta-Go cards.
( groans )
I don't like what
this game's done
to you, Chuckie.
It hasn't done anything
except make my heart race
race with excitement
and give me goose bumps
all over my arms.
Aw, you don't
need those cards
to feel that way;
you just think you do.
Why don't you work on your
stamp collection instead?
Dad said it was really valuable.
It is?
No.
You can't sell
your stamp album.
Yeah, Chuckie.
Dad will go ballistic.
You know how veiny
his head gets.
I'm not selling the whole thing.
I'll trade one tinsy little
stamp for one deck of cards.
If you do, you'll be sorry.
Someday you're gonna
look in that mirror
and you're not gonna
like what you see.
What else is new?
Oh, you're right.
I can't do it.
Yes!
CHUCKIE:
Bet I can.
Hey!
Hey!
Okay, we caught
a break.
Chuckie got sidetracked
trying on...
( pop music playing )
( grunting )
...Yu-Gotta-Go
sunglasses.
Whatever we do,
we can't let him near...
...near Betty Katey's
All-Star Collectibles.
Dil!
And... split.
( music stops, pants rip )
Uh-oh...
my pants.
ANGELICA:
Sorry, guys, but I just don't
see how this is my problem.
But you're the one who started
my brother playing that game.
Hey, it's not my fault
he has no self-control.
Someone waved this shiny object
in front of his face,
and he blindly followed.
Ow! Metallic pink.
That's a yes.
There he is.
Hey, Chuck, let's go
to the pet store
and watch the fighting fish
eat each other.
No, thanks.
Know what we haven't
done in a long time?
Go into one of the movie
theaters and moo.
How about we go
to the tuxedo store
and swap heads
on the mannequins?
Sounds good,
but not today.
Hey-- you, me
at Astro-Zone
playing some
Terror Wheel.
I'll spot you
four points.
Okay, six.
I know what you guys are trying
to do and I appreciate it,
but I know what I am doing.
You guys wait here.
I'd better do
this alone.
CHUCKIE:
Got it, got it, got it.
Not a Red-Mirrored Dragon
in the bunch.
Well, good, you tried.
Let's go.
Another deck,
my good man.
Chuckie.
Last one, I swear.
One more.
The Red-Mirrored Dragon's
got to be here.
It just has to.
Chuckie... no!
( straining )
Here.
Please, please, please.
I'm sorry, Chuckie.
( gasps )
There's still one pack left.
Oh, what are you
gonna buy it with?
You sold your stamp.
( Chuckie guffawing )
Chuckie, you're gonna
get in trouble.
Hey, what cheapskate threw
a button in here?
That's it,
I'm going in.
95... 96... 97...
Uh, a dollar, eight.
Remember
what I said
about looking
in the mirror
and not liking
what you see?
Well, look,
Chuckie. Look!
What do you see?
( gasps ):
A silver dollar!
Look at me.
I'm stealing pennies
from a fountain.
How many children's wishes
have I destroyed?
I just wanted to feel
like a winner
so that for once
I'd feel like somebody.
Tommy, I could have been
the Crimson Destroyer.
You are somebody,
to us.
You're the best big brother.
We're here for you, Chuckie.
I'll treat you
to a Zebra Smoothie.
Out of the agua, dude.
Thanks, guys.
And thanks, Tommy.
You were right,
I do have a problem.
A big problem!
I traded away Dad's
stamp collection.
He is gonna
kill me!
Finster, you freak,
that money's for
seeing-eye dogs.
What are you
doing here?
Uh... I got thinking
about what it's like
to be hooked on something.
Chuckie and his cards,
me and my phone and...
Hey, if we're not there for
each other for the bad times,
then what kind
of friends
are we?
Don't worry.
I didn't tell anyone
what was in your diary.
Oh... well...
See you.
Yet.
Okay... what do
you want?
Chuckie sold all
his stamps for cards.
No way that store
will give them back.
We'll see about that.
ANGELICA:
Listen to my words, Jonathan.
My mother is CFO of the company
that distributes those cards,
and she can make your life
a living nightmare.
Trust me on this.
M-M-M-My name's Fred.
If you don't meet
my demands,
you can say sayonara
to Yu-Gotta-Go cards
and sayonara to
your customers.
( whispering ):
Do you really do
all that?
No, but they
don't know that.
( all laughing )
I don't know what to say,
you guys,
except I am off
Yu-Gotta-Go forever.
( quavering )
Keep walking.
Just keep walking.
CHAS:
What're you doing there,
Chuckie?
Ah, nothing. Just putting
some junk away-- forever.
I've been thinking, Dad.
Can we go to the post
office after school?
The new commemorative
stamps came out today.
Oh, Chuckie, I didn't think
you were interested.
Why, you betcha.
How about after
the post office,
we snag some ice cream?
And let's throw
fate to the wind:
vanilla
with sprinkles.
Dad, why are you smiling
like that guy downtown
who talks to trees?
Well, I know how much you had
your heart set on them,
so here--
your very own
Yu-Gotta-Go cards.
CHUCKIE ( laughing ):
The Red-Mirrored Dragon.
CHUCKIE:
That was wicked awesome.
Let's go again!
CHAS:
Oh, there's precipitation
in Providence!
