THERE. ALL THIS BATCH
OF MIRACLE GROWTH SERUM
NEEDS NOW IS 8 HOURS
OF PROLONGED EXPOSURE
TO LOW TEMPERATURES.
HMM. NOW WHERE CAN I KEEP
THIS REFRIGERATED OVERNIGHT?
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
"HANDS OFF! PROPERTY
OF SCIENCE LAB."
AND NOW FOR MY
TAPIOCA PUDDING RECIPE'S
SECRET INGREDIENT.
CHILLED BOTTLED WATER
FOR AN EXTRA SMOOTH
PUDDING TEXTURE.
NOW, FOR SOME MAYONNAISE.
[PUDDING BURBLING]
THAT'S FUNNY. I COULD'VE
SWORN I LEFT A SPOON HERE.
OOPS! ALMOST FORGOT
THE CELERY.
MY MEMORY MUST BE GOING.
HEY, WHAT'S GOING ON
AROUND HERE?
NOW,
CAN ANYONE SHOW ME
WHERE
THE AMAZON RIVER IS?
Both: OOH! OOH! I KNOW,
MISS GRUNDY!
ARCHIE, I'M
THE GEOGRAPHY WHIZ
KID IN THIS CLASS.
DON'T TRY
TO COMPETE WITH ME,
OR YOU'LL END UP
LOOKING LIKE A FOOL.
OH, YEAH? I WAS
GEOGRAPHY WHIZ KID
WHEN YOU WERE
JUST LEARNING
TO SPELL YOUR NAME.
OHH! WHY DON'T YOU
POINT IT OUT TO US
THIS TIME, REGGIE?
WITH PLEASURE.
THEY'RE AT IT AGAIN.
THEY'VE BEEN LIKE
THIS SINCE WE WERE
ALL LITTLE KIDS.
JUST IMAGINE
IF THEY WOULD CHANNEL
ALL THIS ENERGY
FROM THEIR RIVALRY
INTO SOME MORE POSITIVE.
THEY COULD DO ANYTHING.
VERY GOOD.
WHERE DID THAT
TUNA SURPRISE GO?
MAYBE IT FELL OFF
THE COUNTER.
WHAT IN THE NAME OF
BOB MONTANA ARE YOU?
HELP!
HELP!
ALL RIGHT,
NOW WHO WOULD LIKE
TO COME UP TO THE MAP
AND SHOW US WHERE WE MIGHT
FIND THE GOBI DESERT?
UHH! ARCHIE.
WHOA!
[ALL LAUGHING]
HA HA HA HA!
HEE HEE! HO HO!
NICE WORK,
RAND McNALLY!
YOU ONLY MISSED IT
BY ABOUT
2,000 MILES.
MR. MANTLE, MR. ANDREWS,
I HAVE HAD IT WITH YOUR
CHILDISH RIVALRY.
IT'S STARTING TO
DISRUPT MY CLASS.
AND DON'T GIVE ME
THAT SURPRISED LOOK,
YOU TWO.
DID YOU EVER THINK
THAT IF THE TWO OF YOU
WOULD JUST STOP
FIGHTING AND--
MISS GRUNDY,
LOOK OUT!
AAH!
SEE HERE! I DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU ARE
OR WHAT YOU THINK
YOU'RE DOING,
BUT THIS IS A PLACE
OF HIGHER LEARNING.
SO, IF YOU WANT TO JUST
BARGE INTO MY CLASSROOM,
YOU'RE GOING TO
HAVE TO GET YOURSELF
ENROLLED FIRST, FELLA.
AAH!
[ALL SCREAMING]
GET OUT OF MY WAY!
I WAS HERE FIRST!
OH, NO! BETTY!
AAH!
Both: I'LL SAVE YOU,
BETTY!
UNH! WATCH WHERE
YOU'RE GOING!
OUT OF MY WAY,
CLUMSY!
OH, NO!
IT GOT HER!
POOR BETTY!
UH-OH!
YIKES! LET'S GET
OUT OF HERE!
LISTEN, I KNOW WE'VE ALL
JUST LOST FRIENDS
TO THAT--THAT THING,
WHATEVER IT IS,
BUT WE CAN'T JUST STAND
AROUND HERE
FEELING SAD AND DOING
NOTHING.
WE'VE GOT TO RALLY TOGETHER
AND STOP IT
BEFORE IT STRIKES AGAIN.
WE NEED TO GET ORGANIZED,
COME UP WITH A PLAN.
I AGREE.
YOU DO?
WELL, GOOD--HUH?!
SURE, WE NEED A PLAN,
BUT WE DON'T NEED
THIS LOSER TO
TELL US WHAT TO DO.
WHAT WE NEED IS
SOMEONE WHO IS BRAVE
AND RESOURCEFUL,
NAMELY ME.
GIVE THAT BACK!
NOW IF YOU REALLY WANT
TO STOP THIS GLOB,
YOU'LL JOIN ME
AT THE TENNIS COURT.
I HAVE A SUREFIRE PLAN.
HERE. I DON'T
NEED THIS ANYMORE.
DON'T FOLLOW THIS
CREEP! HE DOESN'T KNOW
WHAT HE'S DOING.
HE'LL ONLY LEAD YOU
TO DISASTER. FOLLOW ME!
WE'RE WITH YOU, ARCH.
AHH!
AND I THINK
I HAVE A PLAN
THAT CAN STOP
THIS CREATURE.
NOW LISTEN UP, TROOPS.
WE'LL LURE THAT THING
INTO THE SUPPLY SHED,
AND THEN WE'LL
DROP THE TENNIS NET
AND PIN IT TO THE GROUND.
AH...I CAN JUST SEE
THE HEADLINES NOW...
"MANTLE THE MAGNIFICENT
CAPTURES MONSTER,
SAVES TOWN."
THAT'LL SHOW ARCHIE.
LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU'VE
GOT THAT TRAP SET UP,
FELLAS.
YES, SIREE,
THIS IS GONNA BE
ONE SWEET...
AAH!
[ROARING]
AAH!
OK. OK.
NO NEED TO PANIC.
IT'S JUST GONNA BE
A LITTLE HARDER
TO CAPTURE THAT THING,
THAT'S ALL.
GOTTA THINK.
GOTTA COME UP WITH A PLAN.
AAH!
RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!
A GLOB IS ON THE LOOSE!
HELP! ARCHIE, JUGHEAD!
MOMMY. ANYBODY!
OOH!
AAH!
HUH?
I'VE BEEN WORKING
ON THIS LASER CANNON
FOR MONTHS NOW.
NOW ALL WE NEED
IS FOR SOMEONE TO LURE
THIS CREATURE OUR WAY.
GEE, THANKS A LOT, GUYS.
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO WAITING
FOR SOMEONE TO VOLUNTEER?
Both: HUH?
MAN, I WOULDN'T
WANT TO BE THE ONE
USING MYSELF FOR BAIT
FOR THATTHING.
WELL, GOOD LUCK,
ARCH!
[GULP]
HEY, YOU BIG UGLY!
COME AND GET ME!
GET READY, DILTON!
HERE IT COMES!
ARCHIE!
WAIT! HOLD YOUR FIRE!
WHAT?
AAH!
LOOK! IT'S BETTY!
ARCHIE,
WE'RE ALL STILL ALIVE!
THERE ARE
AIR POCKETS INSIDE!
DON'T SHOOT, DILTON!
HELP! ARCHIE!
BETTY!
WELL, AT LEAST WE KNOW
THEY'RE OK IN THERE.
BUT THE OXYGEN
IN THOSE AIR POCKETS
WON'T LAST FOREVER.
HOW CAN WE STOP THAT GLOB
AND SAVE THE PEOPLE INSIDE
WITHOUT HURTING THEM
BEFORE THEY RUN OUT OF AIR?
HMM...MAYBE THIS
CAN HELP US.
[BRAKES SCREECHING]
[CRASH]
[HONK]
[CRASH, SCREECH]
[PEOPLE YELLING]
WELL, GOT ANY MORE
IDEAS, ARCH?
I DON'T KNOW, JUG.
I HATE TO SAY IT,
BUT IT'S STARTING
TO LOOK LIKE WE'RE BEATEN.
[PANTING]
YEAH, WELL, I'VE GOT
EVEN WORSE NEWS!
I JUST SAW
THAT GIANT
BEAN BAG CHAIR
MAKING ITS WAY
THROUGH TOWN,
AND IT'S GROWING
BIGGER AND BIGGER
EVERY MINUTE!
GREAT. NOW WHAT ARE WE
SUPPOSED TO DO?
I WISH I KNEW.
HMM. NOW,
THAT'S PECULIAR.
I'VE BEEN ANALYZING
THIS SAMPLE,
BUT I CAN'T SEEM
TO IDENTIFY ITS COMPONENTS.
OH, THAT'S TERRIFIC NEWS,
BRAINIAC.
NOW WE'RE REALLY DOOMED!
AHA! I THOUGHT
THAT MONSTER
SMELLED FAMILIAR!
Archie: WHAT?
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT, JUG?
PUDDING, GENTLEMEN.
MMM, MMM.
TAPIOCA, TO BE EXACT.
PUDDING?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
PUDDING?
HOW CAN THAT BE?
HMM. JUGHEAD,
WHAT'S THE CAEFETRIA
DESSERT SPECIAL
ON TUESDAY?
MISS BEASLEY'S
TAPIOCA PUDDING,
EVERY TUESDAY
WITHOUT FAIL.
DON'T YOU SEE?
TODAY IS TUESDAY.
SOMETHING MUST HAVE
HAPPENED TO MISS
BEASLEY'S PUDDING!
OH, NO! MY GROWTH SERUM!
I STORED IT
IN THE CAFETERIA
REFRIGERATOR!
THAT MUST BE IT THEN!
ARE YOU TELLING ME
THAT ALL THOSE PEOPLE
WERE CONSUMED?
YES! BY SOMETHING
THEY USUALLY ATE
THEMSELVES!
TALK ABOUT HAVING
A SNACK ATTACK!
OK, SO NOW THAT
WE'VE IDENTIFIED IT,
WHAT DO WE DO
TO STOP IT?
IT'S SIMPLE.
PUDDING CONSISTS
OF NOTHING MORE
THAN MILK, DAIRY WHEY,
AND SUGAR
AND CAN BE DISSOLVED
WITH A LITTLE SUBSTANCE
KNOWN AS H2O.
WATER--OF COURSE!
THAT MUST BE WHY
IT DIDN'T CHASE ME INTO
THE COURTYARD FOUNTAIN--
THE WATER!WAIT A SECOND!
YOU MEAN ALL WE HAVE TO DO
IS GIVE IT A BATH?
EXACTLY. WE'RE SIMPLY
GOING TO FIGHT FIRE
WITH WATER!
HEY! WHERE DID EVERYBODY
RUN OFF TO?
SOMETHING TELLS ME
WE'RE TOO LATE.
OH, YEAH? WELL,
THAT LIVING SNACK TREAT
MAY HAVE EATEN THE FIREMEN,
BUT WE CAN STILL
HELP OURSELVES
TO THE FIRE HOSES.
GUESS AGAIN!
LOOK!
WHAT AN APPETITE
THAT THING HAS.
I DON'T BELIEVE IT!
IT DEVOURED
THE FIRE TRUCKS
AND ALL THE HOSES, TOO?
OH, NO! LOOK AT
THE SIZE OF THAT THING!
IT'S COMING
STRAIGHT FOR US!
TO THE CHOCK'LIT SHOPPE!
THAT'S WHAT I LIKE
TO SEE--
CUSTOMERS
WHO JUST CAN'T WAIT
TO COME TO POP'S!
THE USUAL BOOTH,
FELLAS?
HEY, WHAT'S GOIN' ON?
YOU BOYS EXPECTIN'
A TORNADO OR SOMETHING?
WORSE, POP.
THERE'S A GIANT
PUDDING MONSTER
ON THE LOOSE,
AND HE'S TEARING UP
THE WHOLE TOWN!
HA HA HA!
A PUDDING MONSTER?
HEY, THAT'S
A GOOD ONE, ARCH!
BOY, OH, BOY.
YOU KIDS AND YOUR
GROOVY, HEP,
AND WITH IT HUMOR.
SO, JUGHEAD,
WHAT'LL IT BE?
A BURGER?
NO TIME
FOR BURGERS, POP.
ARCHIE'S TELLING
THE TRUTH.
THERE'S A MONSTER
ON THE RAMPAGE!
WHAT?! NO TIME FOR BURGERS!
WHEN JUGHEAD DOESN'T
HAVE TIME FOR BURGERS,
SOMETHING MUST BE
TERRIBLY WRONG.
[ELECTRICITY CRACKLES]All: AAH!
UH-OH!
[MOANING]
OH, NO!
IT'S OUT OF CONTROL...
AND TRYING TO EAT
THE WHOLE CHOCK'LIT SHOPPE!
Dilton:
IT'S BREAKING
THE WINDOWS!
WE'VE GOTTA
DO SOMETHING!
I DON'T HAVE
PUDDING DISASTER
INSURANCE!
QUICK, POP!
WE NEED ALL THE BOTTLED
WATER OR SELTZER YOU CAN SPARE!
I GOT THOSE SELTZER HOSES
ON THE SODA COUNTER.
IT'S NOT WORKING!
HE'S TOO BIG!
I'M RUNNING LOW
ON THE WET STUFF.
ME, TOO!
DITTO, I'M AFRAID.
THAT'S IT!
WE'RE DONE FOR!
LOOKS LIKE THIS IS IT,
GANG--THE END.
AH.
NOT IF I CAN HELP IT.
I'M GOIN' IN!
JUGHEAD, NO!
I CAN'T LET YOU DO IT.
IT'S A SUICIDE MISSION.
SORRY, ARCH,
BUT THIS IS BETWEEN ME
AND THE BIG PUDDING.
I CAN'T LOOK.
DON'T WORRY, ARCHIE.
IT'S ONE EATING MACHINE
AGAINST ANOTHER NOW.
HEY, LUMPY GUTS!
DOWN HERE!
LOOKS LIKE IT'S JUST
YOU AND ME NOW!
I DON'T BELIEVE IT!
JUGHEAD HAS HIM
ON THE RUN!
LOOK AT HIM EAT!
I TOLD YA!
THAT'S MY BEST
CUSTOMER OUT THERE.
WAIT--HE'S STARTING
TO WOBBLE.
I THINK HE MAY HAVE
EATEN TOO MUCH!
JUGHEAD?
THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!
UH...EH...
EH...OH!
[SNIFFS]
BRAVE LITTLE JUGHEAD.
HE WENT DOWN CHEWING.
IF JUGHEAD
COULDN'T STOP HIM,
WHAT HOPE DO WE HAVE?
HA! SOME LEADER
YOU TURNED OUT TO BE!
IF I HAD BEEN IN CHARGE,
THIS WOULD NEVER
HAVE HAPPENED.
OH, YEAH? WELL,
I DIDN'T HEAR YOU
COMING UP WITH ANY IDEAS
ON HOW TO DO THINGS
DIFFERENTLY, GENIUS.
IF YOU HAD BEEN
IN CHARGE, WE'D ALL BE
INSIDE THAT THING NOW.
WHO SAYS?
I DO!
THAT'S ENOUGH ARGUING
OUT OF YOU TWO!
LISTEN TO YOU--FIGHTING
LIKE CATS AND DOGS
WHEN WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE
IN OUR FINEST HOUR!
HE'S RIGHT.
WE SHOULD BE
POOLING OUR IDEAS
INSTEAD OF ARGUING
OVER WHO HAS
THE BETTER ONE.
YEAH. YOU'VE GOT
A POINT THERE.
IF ONLY THERE WERE
A WAY TO GET OUR HANDS
ON A LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER,
I'M CONFIDENT
WE COULD DISSOLVE THAT BEAST.
YEAH. MAYBE WE SHOULD
DO A RAIN DANCE.
WAIT A MINUTE.
OF COURSE!
THAT'S IT!
HUH? WHAT'S IT?
RAIN! WE NEED TO FIND
A WAY TO MAKE IT RAIN!
BUT I DON'T KNOW
HOW TO DO A RAIN DANCE.
I WAS JUST--
NO, NOT BY DANCING.
BY USING CLOUD SEEDING.
DILTON, CAN YOU MIX UP
A CLOUD SEEDING SOLUTION?
HMM...IT SHOULDN'T
BE TOO HARD.
BUT HOW ARE WE GONNA
GET ABOVE THE CLOUDS
TO SEED THEM?
MY UNCLE OWNS AN OLD PLANE.
WE COULD FLY UP
AND DROP A PAYLOAD
INTO THE CLOUDS.
PERFECT! BUT WHO'S
GONNA FLY IT?
I'VE GOT A PILOT'S LICENSE.
I CAN DO IT.
AAH!
AAH!
WE'D BETTER HURRY.
WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME!
HERE'S MY PLAN...
YOO-HOO! MR. GLOB!
LOOKY HERE!
DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD
LEAVE ARCHIE TO FACE
THAT THING ALONE?
HE'S COUNTING ON US
TO DO OUR PART
OF THE PLAN.
WE HAVE TO LEAVE HIM!
Pop: ARCHIE'LL
BE ALL RIGHT.
WELL, I GOT INTO THE PARK.
NOW I JUST HAVE TO KEEP
THE GLOB OUT IN THE OPEN
UNTIL POP TATE AND REGGIE
CAN GET THOSE CLOUDS SEEDED.
HEY, SNACK-PUSS!
OVER HERE!
COME ON, COME AND GET ME!
JUST IN TIME.
HEAD TOWARDS THOSE CLOUDS
RIGHT ABOVE THE CITY PARK.
ROGER!
YOU SURE THIS FORMULA
OF YOURS WILL WORK?
ABSOLUTELY! WHEN IT
HITS THOSE CLOUDS,
IT SHOULD START RAINING
ALMOST INSTANTANEOUSLY.
HIT THE RELEASE
LEVER!
[GROANING]
IT--IT'S NOT
OPENING!
WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
IT'S NOT OPENING?
WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
THEY'RE RUSTED SHUT.
NOW WHAT DO WE DO?
HURRY UP, GUYS.
MAKE WITH THE RAIN
ALREADY!
KEEP TRYING, REGGIE.
WE'RE RIGHT ABOVE
THE CLOUDS!
I'M TRYING! I'M TRYING!
NOOO!
YAAAAH!
YOU'LL HAVE TO CRAWL
OUT ON THE LANDING GEAR
AND RELEASE THE DOOR
MANUALLY.
HUH? OH, LOVELY!
YOU DID IT, REGGIE!
YOU DID IT!
I ALWAYS HATED
TAPIOCA PUDDING.
SO THAT'S WHERE
IT WAS.
DARN. I COULD HAVE
EATEN MY WAY OUT
IN A COUPLE MORE HOURS.
[GASPS] OH, ARCHIE!
[PLANE ENGINE]
WAY TO GO, GUYS!
ALL RIGHT!
YES!
AS I WAS SAYING,
I WOULD HAVE EATEN
MY WAY OUT SOONER
OR LATER.
BUT YOU GUYS
SURE DID A GREAT JOB.
MY HEROES! I DON'T KNOW
HOW TO THANK YOU GUYS!
WELL, ACTUALLY, BETTY,
YOU CAN THANK THE POWER
OF TEAMWORK.
ONCE REGGIE AND I PUT
OUR RIVALRY ASIDE
AND DECIDED IT WAS BETTER
TO FIGHT SIDE-BY-SIDE
INSTEAD OF WITH EACH OTHER,
WELL, LET'S JUST SAY
THAT MONSTER DIDN'T
STAND A CHANCE.
YOU SAID IT, PAL!
I'LL GET THE CHECK, REG.
NO, NO, I INSIST,
PAL O' MINE.
IT'S OK, REG, REALLY.
MY TREAT.
I SAID I'LL PAY
THE CHECK.
I'M PAYING THIS CHECK!
NO, I'M PAYING!
GUYS, STOP FIGHTING.
WE'LL PAY THE CHECK.
SHEESH!
[GROWLING]
SEE? I TOLD YOU
IT WOULD WORK.
IF WE KEEP THIS UP,
WE WON'T HAVE TO PAY
FOR WEEKS!
GREAT IDEA, REGGIE!
TO TEAMWORK!
HA HA HA!
HA HA HA!
Archie: I DON'T KNOW
WHY IT STARTED,
BUT REGGIE'S AND MY RIVALRY
GREW TOO BIG AND OUT OF CONTROL,
JUST LIKE THE GLOB.
I DON'T KNOW HOW OUR FRIENDS
PUT UP WITH US.
IT MUST HAVE BEEN
EXTREMELY ANNOYING.
IT TOOK AN OUT OF CONTROL
SCHOOL DESSERT
TO FINALLY BRING US TOGETHER
AS A TEAM.
JUST ANOTHER LESSON
ON THE MENU...
IN A LITTLE TOWN
CALLED RIVERDALE.
MONSTER STALKING RIVERDALE,
AND IT'S EATING
EVERYTHING IN SIGHT,
WITH ARCHIE
AS THE MAIN COURSE.

I DON'T BELIEVE IT!
IT DEVOURED
THE FIRE TRUCKS
AND ALL THE HOSES, TOO?
OH, NO! LOOK AT
THE SIZE OF THAT THING!
IT'S COMING
STRAIGHT FOR US!
TO THE CHOCK'LIT SHOPPE!
THAT'S WHAT I LIKE
TO SEE--
CUSTOMERS
WHO JUST CAN'T WAIT
TO COME TO POP'S!
THE USUAL BOOTH,
FELLAS?
HEY, WHAT'S GOIN' ON?
YOU BOYS EXPECTIN'
A TORNADO OR SOMETHING?
WORSE, POP.
THERE'S A GIANT
PUDDING MONSTER
ON THE LOOSE,
AND HE'S TEARING UP
THE WHOLE TOWN!
HA HA HA!
A PUDDING MONSTER?
HEY, THAT'S
A GOOD ONE, ARCH!
BOY, OH, BOY.
YOU KIDS AND YOUR
GROOVY, HEP,
AND WITH IT HUMOR.
SO, JUGHEAD,
WHAT'LL IT BE?
A BURGER?
NO TIME
FOR BURGERS, POP.
ARCHIE'S TELLING
THE TRUTH.
THERE'S A MONSTER
ON THE RAMPAGE!
WHAT?! NO TIME FOR BURGERS!
WHEN JUGHEAD DOESN'T
HAVE TIME FOR BURGERS,
SOMETHING MUST BE
TERRIBLY WRONG.
[ELECTRICITY CRACKLES]All: AAH!
UH-OH!
[MOANING]
OH, NO!
IT'S OUT OF CONTROL...
AND TRYING TO EAT
THE WHOLE CHOCK'LIT SHOPPE!
Dilton:
IT'S BREAKING
THE WINDOWS!
WE'VE GOTTA
DO SOMETHING!
I DON'T HAVE
PUDDING DISASTER
INSURANCE!
QUICK, POP!
WE NEED ALL THE BOTTLED
WATER OR SELTZER YOU CAN SPARE!
I GOT THOSE SELTZER HOSES
ON THE SODA COUNTER.
IT'S NOT WORKING!
HE'S TOO BIG!
I'M RUNNING LOW
ON THE WET STUFF.
ME, TOO!
DITTO, I'M AFRAID.
THAT'S IT!
WE'RE DONE FOR!
LOOKS LIKE THIS IS IT,
GANG--THE END.
AH.
NOT IF I CAN HELP IT.
I'M GOIN' IN!
JUGHEAD, NO!
I CAN'T LET YOU DO IT.
IT'S A SUICIDE MISSION.
SORRY, ARCH,
BUT THIS IS BETWEEN ME
AND THE BIG PUDDING.
I CAN'T LOOK.
DON'T WORRY, ARCHIE.
IT'S ONE EATING MACHINE
AGAINST ANOTHER NOW.
HEY, LUMPY GUTS!
DOWN HERE!
LOOKS LIKE IT'S JUST
YOU AND ME NOW!
I DON'T BELIEVE IT!
JUGHEAD HAS HIM
ON THE RUN!
LOOK AT HIM EAT!
I TOLD YA!
THAT'S MY BEST
CUSTOMER OUT THERE.
WAIT--HE'S STARTING
TO WOBBLE.
I THINK HE MAY HAVE
EATEN TOO MUCH!
JUGHEAD?
THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!
UH...EH...
EH...OH!
[SNIFFS]
BRAVE LITTLE JUGHEAD.
HE WENT DOWN CHEWING.
IF JUGHEAD
COULDN'T STOP HIM,
WHAT HOPE DO WE HAVE?
HA! SOME LEADER
YOU TURNED OUT TO BE!
IF I HAD BEEN IN CHARGE,
THIS WOULD NEVER
HAVE HAPPENED.
OH, YEAH? WELL,
I DIDN'T HEAR YOU
COMING UP WITH ANY IDEAS
ON HOW TO DO THINGS
DIFFERENTLY, GENIUS.
IF YOU HAD BEEN
IN CHARGE, WE'D ALL BE
INSIDE THAT THING NOW.
WHO SAYS?
I DO!
THAT'S ENOUGH ARGUING
OUT OF YOU TWO!
LISTEN TO YOU--FIGHTING
LIKE CATS AND DOGS
WHEN WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE
IN OUR FINEST HOUR!
HE'S RIGHT.
WE SHOULD BE
POOLING OUR IDEAS
INSTEAD OF ARGUING
OVER WHO HAS
THE BETTER ONE.
YEAH. YOU'VE GOT
A POINT THERE.
IF ONLY THERE WERE
A WAY TO GET OUR HANDS
ON A LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER,
I'M CONFIDENT
WE COULD DISSOLVE THAT BEAST.
YEAH. MAYBE WE SHOULD
DO A RAIN DANCE.
WAIT A MINUTE.
OF COURSE!
THAT'S IT!
HUH? WHAT'S IT?
RAIN! WE NEED TO FIND
A WAY TO MAKE IT RAIN!
BUT I DON'T KNOW
HOW TO DO A RAIN DANCE.
I WAS JUST--
NO, NOT BY DANCING.
BY USING CLOUD SEEDING.
DILTON, CAN YOU MIX UP
A CLOUD SEEDING SOLUTION?
HMM...IT SHOULDN'T
BE TOO HARD.
BUT HOW ARE WE GONNA
GET ABOVE THE CLOUDS
TO SEED THEM?
MY UNCLE OWNS AN OLD PLANE.
WE COULD FLY UP
AND DROP A PAYLOAD
INTO THE CLOUDS.
PERFECT! BUT WHO'S
GONNA FLY IT?
I'VE GOT A PILOT'S LICENSE.
I CAN DO IT.
AAH!
AAH!
WE'D BETTER HURRY.
WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME!
HERE'S MY PLAN...
YOO-HOO! MR. GLOB!
LOOKY HERE!
DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD
LEAVE ARCHIE TO FACE
THAT THING ALONE?
HE'S COUNTING ON US
TO DO OUR PART
OF THE PLAN.
WE HAVE TO LEAVE HIM!
Pop: ARCHIE'LL
BE ALL RIGHT.
WELL, I GOT INTO THE PARK.
NOW I JUST HAVE TO KEEP
THE GLOB OUT IN THE OPEN
UNTIL POP TATE AND REGGIE
CAN GET THOSE CLOUDS SEEDED.
HEY, SNACK-PUSS!
OVER HERE!
COME ON, COME AND GET ME!
JUST IN TIME.
HEAD TOWARDS THOSE CLOUDS
RIGHT ABOVE THE CITY PARK.
ROGER!
YOU SURE THIS FORMULA
OF YOURS WILL WORK?
ABSOLUTELY! WHEN IT
HITS THOSE CLOUDS,
IT SHOULD START RAINING
ALMOST INSTANTANEOUSLY.
HIT THE RELEASE
LEVER!
[GROANING]
IT--IT'S NOT
OPENING!
WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
IT'S NOT OPENING?
WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
THEY'RE RUSTED SHUT.
NOW WHAT DO WE DO?
HURRY UP, GUYS.
MAKE WITH THE RAIN
ALREADY!
KEEP TRYING, REGGIE.
WE'RE RIGHT ABOVE
THE CLOUDS!
I'M TRYING! I'M TRYING!
NOOO!
YAAAAH!
YOU'LL HAVE TO CRAWL
OUT ON THE LANDING GEAR
AND RELEASE THE DOOR
MANUALLY.
HUH? OH, LOVELY!
YOU DID IT, REGGIE!
YOU DID IT!
I ALWAYS HATED
TAPIOCA PUDDING.
SO THAT'S WHERE
IT WAS.
DARN. I COULD HAVE
EATEN MY WAY OUT
IN A COUPLE MORE HOURS.
[GASPS] OH, ARCHIE!
[PLANE ENGINE]
WAY TO GO, GUYS!
ALL RIGHT!
YES!
AS I WAS SAYING,
I WOULD HAVE EATEN
MY WAY OUT SOONER
OR LATER.
BUT YOU GUYS
SURE DID A GREAT JOB.
MY HEROES! I DON'T KNOW
HOW TO THANK YOU GUYS!
WELL, ACTUALLY, BETTY,
YOU CAN THANK THE POWER
OF TEAMWORK.
ONCE REGGIE AND I PUT
OUR RIVALRY ASIDE
AND DECIDED IT WAS BETTER
TO FIGHT SIDE-BY-SIDE
INSTEAD OF WITH EACH OTHER,
WELL, LET'S JUST SAY
THAT MONSTER DIDN'T
STAND A CHANCE.
YOU SAID IT, PAL!
I'LL GET THE CHECK, REG.
NO, NO, I INSIST,
PAL O' MINE.
IT'S OK, REG, REALLY.
MY TREAT.
I SAID I'LL PAY
THE CHECK.
I'M PAYING THIS CHECK!
NO, I'M PAYING!
GUYS, STOP FIGHTING.
WE'LL PAY THE CHECK.
SHEESH!
[GROWLING]
SEE? I TOLD YOU
IT WOULD WORK.
IF WE KEEP THIS UP,
WE WON'T HAVE TO PAY
FOR WEEKS!
GREAT IDEA, REGGIE!
TO TEAMWORK!
HA HA HA!
HA HA HA!
Archie: I DON'T KNOW
WHY IT STARTED,
BUT REGGIE'S AND MY RIVALRY
GREW TOO BIG AND OUT OF CONTROL,
JUST LIKE THE GLOB.
I DON'T KNOW HOW OUR FRIENDS
PUT UP WITH US.
IT MUST HAVE BEEN
EXTREMELY ANNOYING.
IT TOOK AN OUT OF CONTROL
SCHOOL DESSERT
TO FINALLY BRING US TOGETHER
AS A TEAM.
JUST ANOTHER LESSON
ON THE MENU...
IN A LITTLE TOWN
CALLED RIVERDALE.
