Ace's online obsession arouses the interest of a mysterious video game vixen.
♪♪
Cool. Time for me
to catch a princess.
Help,
I need to be caught.
Won't you catch me?
Please,
choose me for catching.
-Chaz.

[ Laughs ]
[ Gasps ]
-[ Giggles ]
-[ Laughs ]
-Hey, there. Ready to catch me?
-I sure am.
Let's see
what you're made of.
Oh!
♪♪
Oh no.
I just mean Ace.
My name is Ace Ambling.
Listen, hero,
I don't know about you,
but I can play
all night.
And I can't wait
to be caught.
[ Grunts, chuckles ]
[ Chuckles ]
Catch me, Ace.
Catch me, Ace.
Catch me, Ace.
Catch me, Ace.
Wake up, Ace. Wake up, Ace.
Wake up, Ace! Wake up, nerd!
-Luna.
-Aah! Thanks for the drool.
What? Huh?
Come on, we're late
for practice.
Gaz: Okay,
this play is so simple.
[ Yawns ]
-Ready, everyone?
-Ready.
Here we go.
[ Grunts ]
Oh!
[ Grunts ]
What the hell was that?
He was up all night again
playing his dumb game.
It's not dumb.
Trying to interface with some
video-game sprite named Luna?
Yeah, that's not dumb at all.
-She's a princess.
Ace,
video games are for losers
who can't win anything
in real life.
So, in other words, they're
perfect for Ace, am I right?
If you and Baby Ball
can learn how to control
forming Ballmaster,
our team can start
winning games.
Then, you won't need
a video game to meet girls.
They'll be throwing
themselves at you.
[ Groans ]
That's not why I play,
"To Catch a Princess."
You don't understand me
at all.
[ Crying ]
Are you gonna finally
catch me tonight, Ace?
♪♪
♪♪
[ Chuckles ]
I, uh, could let you go.
We could play again.
I'm tired
of playing games.
Let's make it real.
Meet me in person.
[ Gasps ] In real life?
I've seen you play
with the Leptons.
I know you look
just like your game character.
And I look
just like mine.
Aah!
I don't know.
[ Monitor beeps ]
I'll do it.
But I can't go as Ace.
She's expecting Power Ace.
Oh, oh, yeah,
that's right, baby.
I'm all ball.
Whoa! Cut it out!
Wait,
let me get this straight.
You kidnapped me so you
could form Ballmaster
and meet some video-game nerd
you met on the Internet
in person,
at night,
in a public park?
Aw, don't worry.
She's a beautiful princess.
Yeah, in the game.
In real life she's
an unattractive older man --
if we're lucky.
He's probably some
kind of hideous pervert
who's gonna offer you candy
spiked with a knockout drug
and then...
-Look. See? I told you.
[ Purrs ] Yowza.
Uh, hello.
I was starting to think
you wouldn't show up, Ace.
Luna.
Actually, I'm Ace --
the one down here in the crotch.
What's up, baby?
Seeing you in person makes
me [grunts] feel so strange.
Hey, hey, whoa, hey,
what's going on?
Hey, quit poking my back.
[ Groans ]
What's going on?
I didn't mean
to fool you, Luna.
But this is who I am
when I'm not a Ballmaster.
Any chance
you got a sister
or a skanky friend
with no standards.
So, you two combine
to form Ballmaster?
I'm so sorry.
Do you hate me now
for lying to you?
Oh, Ace, don't be silly.
This is exactly
what I was planning for.
Wait, I'm sorry.
Planning for...what exactly?
Get them, boys!
Aah!
All right, you little twerp,
you're not gonna be late
for practice today.
[ Panel beeps ]
Help, I need to be caught.
Please choose me
for catching.
Won't you catch me?
This is so lame.
These frickin' sluts
think I can't catch them, huh?
[ Beeping ]
[ Laughs ]
Wha-- What's going on?
We're the Ashigari princesses,
and we want to go
all the way this year.
So, we captured you to discover
the secrets of your Ballmaster.
Release the ball.
Thank you.
It's about time.
I'll send help
when I can,
but don't let that
discourage you
from planning
your own escape. [ Grunts ]
If you could just, ahem,
relax your grip a little bit.
You two are going to
teach us your secret.
Start by telling us
how your form a Ballmaster.
Never. We will never
betray the Leptons.
Ace, honey, please.
Don't be like that.
If you help us out,
you and I can still be friends.
Maybe even go
on a real date.
Aaah!
Oh.
No, I cannot.
And I'm not gonna
so I guess this is
your classic stalemate, ladies.
Maru,
squeeze the ball.
Ow,
ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow!
[ Laughter ]
Tell us how you form
the Ballmaster
or Maru will make you into
fresh-squeezed ball juice.
Okay, okay, I'll tell you
anything you want to know.
Everything. I'll give you
all my money, too. Please.
Oh. There's no trick to it,
we just fly together.
Try it. I don't know.
[ Groans ] I do not like
to be humiliated.
Maybe it's me. I'm special.
Let me try, please.
Luna: When they come together
to form Ballmaster,
the ball winds up
in Ace's groin.
So, I guess, try there
first, but on Maru.
Uh, o-okay. Well, you know,
I guess, we tried.
Aah! [ Grunting ]
[ Laughter ]
Maybe Ace is the key.
Spritle, try it with him.
-[ Gasps ]
-Sorry about this, Ace.
[ Groans ]
[ Both grunting ]
[ Laughter ]
[ Groans ]
Leto: Gaz? Gaz?
Could you quit
bothering me?
You've been playing
that thing for 12 hours.
You should probably eat
or at least go to the bathroom.
Wait, where are
Ace and Baby Ball?
Haven't seen them
since yesterday.
Uh-oh, the Ashigari princesses.
Please, I'm begging you.
At least try pushing me
into Luna's groin.
[ Screaming ]
-[ Grunting ]
Why isn't this working?
Listen, Ace, I don't want
to hurt you anymore.
Please, show us how you
and the ball form Ballmaster.
I won't.
Aah! I will.
I thought you'd never ask.
Luna, throw me!
No!
[ Clanking ]
[ Gasps ]
Team rumble.
No rules, no be-ho.
No points.
Just a body count.
Gaz.
Ballmastrz.

[ Grunts ]
[ Laughter ]
Aah!
Ballmastrz.
You are so boned now.
[ Groans ]
Ballmastrz.
Have I been naughty,
Ace.
Are you gonna punish me?
Not again, Ace. Come on.
Think about your grandmother.
[ Groans ]
[ Screams ]
Ballmastrz.
Come on.
Let's get out of here
before someone calls the cops.
-Yeah!
-Yeah!
-[ Chuckles ]
-Whoo-hoo!

Oh.

Luna:
