Baldric/Gretta:
♪ Hey nonny, nonny. ♪

♪ Hey nonny, nonny. ♪

♪ Hey nonny, nonny. ♪

- Woo!

Okay, guys.

It's game day.

Gretta: Glory to the brave.

Baldric: Mm.

Dwight: Are those the banners?

- Indeed they are, Sir Dwight.

- What think you?



- All hail the Woodside
Senior Center dodgeball team.

Gretta: Hm?

- Nice.

And a scourge upon Lakeview

and its senior citizens.

Baldric: [clears throat]

Dwight: Surrender
Lakeview Senior Center

or die like dogs.

- Ha, ha!

- I don't know
what I expected.

Baldric: Our banners will
demoralize the enemy.

- Guys,

the Lakeview Senior Center
is not our enemy.

- You said it is
the most important game



of the season.

- Yes.

Dwight: Well, there is

a long-standing
dodgeball rivalry there.

- Don't be nervous.

- I'm not.

I mean,

I'm, not really, I mean,

just a little bit, maybe,

I'm just, you know,

pre-game jitters,

but win or lose,
we get rootbeer floats.

Gretta: I have just the thing
for you, Sir Dwight.

Hm.

Ah.

Hm.

Baldric: Oh.

Gretta: 'Tis a rabbit's foot.

Dwight: Eh!

Really?

You just had that
in your pocket?

- For good luck.

- Oh.

- Well, luck doesn't win
dodgeball games, Gretta.

Good coaching and
strong fundamentals

wins dodgeball games.

Baldric: We must leave
nothing to chance, Sir Dwight.

I have made a wager of 20 crowns
on the Woodside Senior Center

to win the day.

- You made a bet on
a Senior Center dodgeball game?

- And I do not intend
to lose.

Ahh.

- I finished my banner.

- May the Lakeview
Senior Center dodgeball team

perish in flame.

Hexela: I got 15 crowns
ridin' on Woodside.

Baldric: Not to worry,

we gave Sir Dwight
a rabbit's foot.

Hexela: Oooh.

Baldric: Yes.

Hexela: What else have ya got?

Baldric: Oh, well.

[clatter]

Hexela: Oh.

- [sniffs]

[gags]

- This is cool.

- What is it?

Baldric: I think perhaps,

I won it in a game
of knuckle bones

when I was in school.

Hexela: Oh.

Baldric: I think.

I don't know.

- It looks like.

[snaps fingers]

A twig on a twine.

Dwight: Really, guys?

You don't know what this is?

Baldric: A stick on a string?

Dwight: You mean,

I know something about
a weird old-timey thing

that you guys don't know?

Baldric: Well.

- It's a whistle.

Baldric: Oh.

- The Vikings
used to make them.

I saw it in a documentary
on history channel.

Baldric: I knew that.

- Here, watch.

[phone alert]

Game time.

Let's go.

- You two go ahead.

Hexela and I are going to walk
to the senior center.

Hexela: Backwards,

holding these hen's eggs.

Baldric: Yes.

Gretta: Ooo.

For good luck.

Hm.

- 'Kay.

Hexela: A five, six,
seven, eight.

Baldric: On to victory!

Hexela: [chuckles]

Dwight: All right, Woodside!

Let's warm up!

Nana: Woohoo!

[tapping]

[loud whistle]

[loud rumble]

[loud rumble]

[loud rumble]

[thump]



Dwight: Okay, so
about a thousand years ago,

there was this princess, Gretta

and she was in big trouble

because she had lots of enemies
and not a lot of friends.

So her court magician, Baldric
cast the champion spell.

It put everyone in the woods
to sleep

until a champion would come,

break the spell with his kiss

and deal with Gretta's
big, scary enemies.

But that guy never showed up.

Instead...

Ahhh!

[kiss]

they got me.

Ah!



Ow!



Gretta: Sir Dwight!

Sir Dwight!

Sir Dwight!

- Honeybear?

Kirk: Honey...bear.

[small growl]

Dwight: [gasp]

Ah!

Who the heck?

- [growl]

- Stop growling like that!

- That's the reason.

- Uh, uh!

Nana: Dwight, honey, sit up.

- No.

- [growls]

Dwight: No.

Uh.

Nana: Now let me look
at your pupils.

- Listen,
we have on site security.

Nana, get Stanley in here.

- He gets so nervous
about the Lakeview game.

Last year he threw up
into the ball bin.

We had to sanitize all the balls
before we could play.

- Are you a berserker?

- Huh?

- That that you have there
is the sound for retreat.

It called us back
to the ships.

Now it calls me to you.

From the regions of the dead.

- My bad.

You can get back
to those regions,

false alarm.

- Sir Dwight?

To whom are you speaking?

Nana: I'm calling Dr. McLaren.

I think you've got
a concussion.

- Are you for real
saying you can't see this guy?

- [growling]

Dwight: Like seven feet tall,

red beard with a bear
on his head?

Kirk: Are you a berserker?

[growls]

- Guys, I am
in very serious trouble.

[crash]

[cheering]

- Get it together, coach.

Game's on.

Bob: Welcome to
the Senior Center dodgeball

grudge match of the year.

I'm Bob.

Marla: And I'm Marla.

We've been bringing you
senior center dodgeball

for 21 years.

- That's right.

We've been old longer than
some of you have been alive.

Marla: Today
we're streaming to you live

from the senior dodgeball
YouTube channel.

- Be sure to thank
your grandkids

for helping you get
on the Internet

so you could be part
of the big game.

- Well,
we meet again Woodside.

- Hey, Wayne.

Uh, heard you got a new coach.

Wayne: Oh, yeah.

She's from the semi-pros.

- Let's kick
some Woodside butt!

Wayne: Ye-ah hoo!

Gretta: [gasp]

Muster your courage, Sir Dwight.

Hm.

Wayne: Well, if it isn't
Coach Yaki-puuuu.

Don't worry, son.

We brought extra sanitizer.

[mocking laughter]

Dwight: Looking forward
to a [gags] good game.

- Uh, you should be
looking forward

to a good butt-kicking!

[laughing]

Kirk: I don't like them.

[growling]

Let's kick in their faces.

Dwight: What?

- Or we can pull their arms off!

- No!

Nooo!

No, no, he's,

he's messing with you.

You can't play dodgeball
without arms.

- We could use the little one
to bludgeon the others.

Dwight: Would you stop that!

- Stalling?

Let's play some dodgeball!

- [whistle]

Warming up, seniors.

Wayne: Let's go.

Come on.

All right, ready.

One, two, three.

Dwight: We've got a problem,
and his name is...

What's your name?

- Kirk.

Dwight: Kirk.

His name is Kirk.

And he is a big problem.

Thick, hairy, growly,

the kind of problem that
wants to pull people's arms off

and use Wayne
as a bludgeon.

- I believe

you are suffering
from pre-battle hysteria.

- It's this thing.

- The stick on a string?

Dwight: Whistle.

Blow it.

[whistles]

[rumble]

- [gasps]

Oh, sweet heavens!

It's a berserker.

- Berserker?

Kirk the Berserker?

Gretta: Baldric, Hexela!

Baldric: There.

Now,
nothing unfortunate can happen.

Dwight: That's what you think.

Gretta: Look what
Sir Dwight has done.

Hm?

Dwight: Me?

- Uh.

Gretta: He has conjured
the invisible ghost

of a berserker.

Baldric/Hexela: Why?

- Oh, you know,

it's just something
I've always wanted to do.

Conjure the berserker ghost
that no one can see

and I figured why not do it

right before
the big Lakeview game,

that'll be fun.

Baldric: Oh, well sure, yes,
understandable.

Hexela: Oh, well. Very.

- Blow this whistle.

Hexela: [clears throat]

Baldric: All righty.

[whistle]

[rumble]

- Oh.

Gretta: Hm?

Baldric: It is a berserker.

Hexela: Give me that.

[whistles]

[rumble]

Hexela: [gasp]

But how?

The berserkers are long dead.

Gone to a...

what's berserker heaven?

Baldric: The Hall of the Fallen.

Kirk: Not me.

I am verboten.

- What's verboten?

- Forbidden.

Kirk: [sighs]

Monica: [whistle]

There we go!

Hustle! Hustle! Hustle!

Ooo.

Dwight: Okay, Kirk.

How 'bout you stay here
with Gretta.

No kicking in faces.

No pulling off arms

and no using Wayne
as a bludgeon.

[pats]

- Where are you going?

Dwight: To coach this game.

'Cause this is important.

- Ah.

[scattered applause]

Marla: Woodside and Lakeview
are ready to duke it out.

After Woodside's
embarrassing defeat last year,

Coach Dwight is out to prove

that he deserves
that coach's polo.

Bob: And Coach Monica
of Lakeview,

she's here to keep
the Lakeview streak alive.

Marla: It's time for dodgeball.

- [whistle]

Monica: Hustle, hustle.

Come on, quick, quick.

Keep moving.

Player: We got it.

Monica: Oh.

Bob: Woodside comes out strong.

- What the?

Bob: Another one goes down.

Monica: Help them!

- I had that same injury
last week.

Checking the mail.

- Lakeview's offense
seems to be off.

Bob: And so does their defense.

- Oh, suck it up,
this is dodgeball.

Come on guys!

We got this.

Woo!

Bob: They're so good at flopping

they ought to be playing
senior center soccer.

Marla: [laughs]

Good one, Bob.

Bob: I'm just sayin'.

Both: [laughing]

Monica: [whispering]
Do you see my team, ref?

Do you see my team?

Do you see that they are all
injured and on the ground?

Are you gonna make the call?

Ref: Yes.

Monica: Okay.

Ref: [whistle]

According to league rules,

any player who must leave
the court due to injury

may be substituted by a player

who is not
a senior center member.

- What?

- Bring in the subs!

[multiple unzips]

Bob: Whoa!

- This is
a whole new ball game, folks.

These Lakeview subs are--

Bob: Not a day over 40.

Look at the muscles
on that one.

Baldric: Boo!

Gretta: This is villainy!

Kirk: [growling]

- What is the matter
with you?

- He's a berserker, Sir Dwight.

- He's going berserk.

- It's what berserkers do.

- Nobody is going berserk!

Not on my court, pal!

Monica: Boy, you weren't kidding
about this kid.

- [yells]

Wayne: Total basketcase.

- [growls]

Kirk: [growls]

Dwight: Woop!

Lakeview Team: [cheers]

Dwight: Okay, Team.

We got this!

[claps]

Hey, they look big and scary
but they got nothing on skill.

Nana: Okay.

- [whistle]

Monica: Yes, yes, yes!

Dwight: Go, go, go.

[smack]

Bob: Ooo.

[smack]

[smack]

[smack]

Woman: Hiyah.

[smack]

Baldric: Oh.

[smack]

Bob/Marla: Euh.

Hexela: Boo!

- First set, Lakeview.

[cheering]

Bob: Lakeview wins
the first set in an ambush.

I haven't seen anything like
that since the OK corral.

Marla: Oh, Bob.

Bob: What?

Too soon?

- Lying, cheating bilge rats!

Gretta: Shame and disgrace
and dishonor upon Lakeview!

- Guys!

Come on!

Take it down a few notches.

- Please, Sir Dwight.

Let me turn them into parsnips.

Baldric: You would be doing
the world a service.

- I second
the berserkers idea

that we pull their arms off.

Baldric: Because you can't
play dodgeball without arms.

Ah?

- Absolutely not.

Baldric: Oh.

- It is up to us to be
the better human beings.

Baldric: Bah.

- Where's Kirk?

Ahhh.

Hey, knock it off,

what do you think
you're doing?

- Is there a problem, coach?

- No-o.

No.

No.

No!

No.

No.

Kirk: [spitting]

Dwight: Noo.

Ew.

No!

Hexela: Oo.

- [whistle]

- Have fun out there!

That's the most important thing.

- Dodgeball!

- Oh.

Lakeview Team: Hiyah!

[repeated smacks]

Ref: [whistle]

Foul on Lakeview.

Illegal hits.

- [yells]

- Come on. Come on.

- Wha?

Kirk: Ha.

- Whoa.

What was that?

Nana: You wanna tell me
what the dickens?

- Blow this whistle.

Nana: [whistles]

[rumble]

Kirk: [growls]

Nana: What am I looking at?

- A berserker gone berserk.

Kirk: Ha!

[crash]

Kirk: Ha!

Bob: The Lakeview players
are down like bowling pins.

- Uh.

Out of bounds Lakeview,

second set, Woodside.

- Ha, ha!

[cheering and applause]

Marla: It's tied up.

One to one.

The next set wins it.

Bob: It's getting good.

[laughs]

- That's it.

I said, no berserking!

Are you trying to kill someone,
you maniac?

I'm the coach,

and you are banned
from this dodgeball team.

[all gasp]

- [sighs]

Marla: We may be witnessing
a total emotional collapse

from Coach Dwight.

Bob: Poor kid, you remember
last year with the ball bin?

- [whistle]

Take five, seniors.

Dwight: Kirk.

Kirk.

Hey, Kirk.

I- I'm sorry.

- Ah. Sir Dwight.

Look at this tiny writing.

Sound this whistle to call
to your side,

the ghost who waits
upon the steps.

Dwight: What steps?

- Outside the Hall
of the Fallen.

Baldric: Berserker heaven.

- Where all
my berserker brothers have gone.

Dwight: So, you're
the ghost of a berserker,

but you can't get
into the Hall of the Fallen

with all the other berserkers?

Why not?

- I did something.

- It doesn't matter.

It was a long time ago.

Kirk: 1200 years.

- You've been waiting
outside on the stairs

for 1200 years?

Come on, Kirk.

From now on,
you're with us, okay?

- [sniff]

Dwight: Okay,
here you go, Janice.

Here, here you go.

Monica: It's been more
than five minutes,

so if they're not going to play,
then they forfeit.

- Death first!

Hm, ha.

Dwight: No.

- I don't know, Dwight.

We're pretty beat up.

Dwight: We bring in the subs.

[rock 'n' roll music]

- Have you got a sixth player?

- Kirk!

- Ha.

Dwight: Come on, buddie!

- Only the big, invisible guy.

- Five it is.

Nana: Okay.

Ref: [whistle]

Dodgeball.

- [growls]

You are safe, my lady fair.

Nana: Thanks, Kirk!

Kirk: [growls]

[growls]

Hexela: [shrieks]

- There we go!

Hexela: [giggles]

Woman: [grunts]

[hissing]

Bob: These dadburn trifocals.

- [whistles]

Dodgeball!

Kirk: [yelling]

[growls]

Ref: [whistles]

Best of three, Woodside.

[cheering]

- [yelling]

Monica: No!

Do over!

Marla/Bob: Yes!

Bob: All right!

- There's no prize money,

there's no trophy,

but Woodside gets to walk away
with a year of bragging rights.

Bob: And you don't want to be
on the wrong side of that one.

[cheering]

Dwight: This is
a rootbeer float.

It's a gamechanger.

Baldric: Look at this in
my encyclopedia of curses.

- What have we here?

- Roots afloat in beer.

- Nope.

Baldric: Listen,

a verboten curse may be broken
in only one way.

The accursed must save
a human life.

[slurping]

Dwight: Kirk! Kirk!

Great news!

Like the best news
you've heard in 1200 years!

There's a way to break
a verboten curse!

All you have to do is
save a human life.

I mean,
that sounds doable, right?

You could be a fireman,
or a paramedic.

- [sigh] No.

- How about a lifeguard?

- Even if I did break the curse,

I wouldn't enter
the Hall of the Fallen.

I can't face my brothers.

Dwight: Listen,
whatever happened,

I'm sure they're over it.

1200 years is a long time.

Kirk: Some things
cannot be forgiven.

[sigh]

Dwight: You can tell me.

I'll listen.

- I went to battle
with my berserker brothers,

the battle went awry.

They sounded the retreat,

and called us back
to the ships.

I knew I could make it.

That I would live,

and then I saw one
of my brothers,

wounded,

and calling for help,

and I didn't go back.

I left him!

I ran for the ship.

That day,

he earned his place
in the Hall of the Fallen.

And I earned my place forever
outside of it.

[sighs] I'll stay here.

If that's all right with you.

Dwight: You can stay here
as long as you want.

[pats]

Come on,
let's get a rootbeer float.

Come on, they're good.

[laughs]
