Hamster & Gretel (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 21 - Crimson Haste Makes Waste/The Break-Stuff Club - full transcript

Hamster and Gretel encounter a super speedy villain at the mall; Kevin gets Saturday detention in order to find a vandal.

So, to recap,
that smell in the library
is temporary.

And now, I'm pleased
to present

our new mural painted
by student Hiromi Tanaka!

And we'd also like to thank
Bob Cashwell,

CEO of Cashwell Bank,

who sponsored
this work of art.

Cashwell, we invest in things
that cost almost nothing.

♪ Cashwell cares
when it doesn't cost a lot ♪

And enough further ado
we present Plumber Pride.

(ALL GASP)

WOMAN: What happened?
Ew.



Wow, it's really,
um, different.

Great job, Romi.

No, Kevin,
somebody vandalized it.

Who could have
done this?

Maybe if we figure out
what this symbol means,

we can figure out
who's behind it.

Sort of looks like
it could be an owl.

Or maybe a map
of Dayton, Ohio.

Ooh, guy in a tree.
I like this game.

Monkey on a unicycle.

(SIGHS) They're
letters. B.S.C.

Hmm, a clue.

Is there any villains
with the initials "BSC"?

Well, there's
Big Scary Cyborg,



but Hamster punched him
into the sun last week.

He had it coming.

This looks like the work
of mischievous teens.

Of course,
it's the Break-Stuff Club.

The Break-Stuff Club?

KEVIN: Ronnie Gutcherson.
Joe Thompson,
and Chad No Last Name.

Together, they're
the Break-Stuff Club,

the worst pranksters
in school!

They glitter bombed
the football team.

They released skunks
during the fall pep rally,

and they drove
the homecoming float
into the river.

Turns out "float"
is a misnomer.

That last stunt got them
Saturday detention
for the rest of the year.

Whoa, they must be
really bad kids.

And defacing a school mural
fits their M.O.

But how do we prove it?

I'll infiltrate
Saturday detention,

win their trust, and then
get them to confess.

Kevin, you're the goodiest
goody two shoes in school.

How are you going to get
Saturday detention?

Don't worry.
I've got it all worked out.

♪ I know I've got
a reputation

♪ Sadly, it's not tarnished
at all

♪ They're not even
paying attention

♪ But I really need detention

♪ So, today I'm going
to show them all

♪ I can be bad
If I want to, baby

♪ I can be awful
and unlawful

♪ Don't you try to save me
I can be bad

♪ And you think you know me

♪ But you shouldn't trust me
any further

♪ Than you can throw me
I can be bad, oh

♪ I can be bad, oh

♪ I can be bad, oh

♪ I can be bad
I can be bad ♪

Oh, man,
I just mouthed off
to the lunch lady

and she gave me
an extra slice of cake.

I don't want dessert.
I want detention.

Whoa!
Aw, man, this is
worse than the glitter.

(ALL CLAMORING)

Who's responsible
for this mess?

I am, sir.
It was all me.

Kevin, I'm afraid
I have no choice

but to sentence you
to Saturday detention.

Finally! I mean, whatever.
You'll never break
a rebel like me.

All right.

You're wired for sound.

Great. Once I get
the Break-Stuff Club to admit
to wrecking the mural,

I'll say the code phrase.
And then me
and Hamster fly in.

All right, in the meantime,
you guys stay close.
This could take all day.

But we will get justice
for Hiromi,
just like we promised.

I never promised that.

See you soon.
Go team! Bye!

Yet another Saturday wasted

on undercover
high school shenanigans.

Hey, could you
show us around?

I'm curious to see what
this place is really like.

You want me to give you
a tour of high school?

(SIGHS) Fine.

Behold, the horrors
yet to come.

You all have
exactly eight hours
and 54 minutes

to think about
why you're here.

I'll be in my office,
which has no window
facing this room,

but you are not to move
from these seats.

Salutations,
delinquent peers!
The name's K-Dog,

and I, like you,
am a bad kid
who's done bad things.

I'm Ronnie.
This is Joe and Chad.

Sup?
Hey.

Oh, the Break-Stuff Club.
Big fan of your work

I pulled my own stunt
in the caf yesterday.

That food fight?
All K-Dog, baby.

That was pretty juvenile.

Food fights
are way played out.
So 1985.

If you can think of a more
epic prank that happened
this week, do tell.

Don't skip out on
any incriminating details.

We're actually cooking up
something pretty major.

You know that mural
that got wrecked?

Yeah.
Well, we're going to fix it
but good. (CHUCKLES)

So, what do
you say, K-Dog?

You down to
cut detention
and help us?

Uh, sure,
but how are we gonna
get past Funderberk?

Just wait till noon, brosephine.

Guys, new plan.
We're going to catch them
in the act.

When I give the code phrase,
get to the mural.

Why do we need
a code phrase?

KEVIN: Just do what I say
for once, please.

Uh, sometimes I talk
to myself.

That's how bad I am.

This is our school's
computer lab,

state of the art...

Two decades ago.

Now we mostly just
use the computers
to warm up cheese sandwiches.

That's not bad.

High school
is so awesome!

(SIGHING)

(JINGLE PLAYING)

Right on time.

(SNIFFS AND GASPS)
Is that...

MAN: ♪ Beef buggy
We have lots and lots of beef!

And one salad.

I'm stepping out.

You kids stay here
and continue not moving.

And this is the art room.

The students who create
these heartfelt works

will eventually be pressured
by their parents
to get real jobs.

Ooh, what's this?

Oh, that's
a pottery wheel.

With some wet clay
and that foot pedal,

you can make
a misshapen bowl
for a loved one

instead of buying them
a real gift.

Oh!

All right.
Here we are.

(SIGHS) This thing
makes me sick.

Well, we won't have
to look at it for a long.

Break-Stuff Club, it's time
to restore this mural.

Wait, we're fixing it?

I thought you guys were all
about destructive chaos.

Like when you
glitter bombed
the football team,

and the skunks
at the pep rally,
and the float.

Oh, all those stunts
were to protest cuts
to the art budget.

Art is life, man.

But if you don't break stuff,
why do you call yourself
the Break-Stuff Club?

'Cause we plan
our stuff on breaks.

We don't want it to cut in
on our studying time.

After what happened
to Hiromi's mural,

we knew we had
to make it right.
She's so nice.

And she taught me
how to read.

Oh, here's
the problem, Joe.

You gotta open
the book first.

I've been doing it
all wrong.

But if you didn't tag
the mural, who did?

UNKNOWNZY: I did. (LAUGHS)

I am Unknownzy.

The anonymous
street artist.

Unknownzy?
I never heard of you.

UNKNOWNZY: Then it's working.

Don't lay a finger
on my exhibit!

Your exhibit trashed
our friend's work,

and we're not going to
stand by and let you
get away with it.

(ALL SCREAM)

Paint ball?
Oh, it's on.

The egret has a red hat!

I repeat,
the egret has a red hat!

And that should take care
of Mother's Day
through my 30s!

KEVIN: Egret! Red hat! Mural!

My guess is
that's the signal.
Let's go.

Okay. I guess it's just
more computer grilled
cheese sandwiches for me.

Kevin, where are you guys?

UNKNOWNZY: Ooh,
Hamster and Gretel.

Oh, hold on.
I'll ask this guy
in the mask.

Excuse me, excuse me,
have you seen
some teenagers?

Excuse me. I'm trying
to ask you something.

Can you please stop
shooting paintballs
at me?

Whoa!

What are you doing?
Get him.

He keeps almost
getting paint on us.

It's very annoying.

We haven't exactly
figured out

how to clean these,
you know, I mean,

they don't really exist
unless they're on
our bodies.

UNKNOWNZY: Fools,
I could do this all day.

I've got an idea.

Hey, Unknownzy,
I bet you can't hit us

with navy blue, gold,
and... Cerulean?

Cerulean!

UNKNOWNZY: Oh, no?
Eat paint!

(BLOWS RASPBERRY)

(LAUGHING)

(GRUNTS)

UNKNOWNZY: What? No!
You kids tricked me!

You know what they say,
you're about to get decked
by the superhero behind you.

UNKNOWNZY: I've never
heard anyone say that.

Unknownzy punch!
(GROANS)

Nice job,
Hamster, Gretel, and,
uh, random teenagers.

Let's see who this Unknownzy
guy really is. (GASPS)

(ALL GASP)

All right.
Now I'll take off
his second mask. (GASPS)

Mr. Cashwell?
You vandalized the mural?

Yes. B-S-C,
Bob Stanley Cashwell.

As the investor
in that mural,

I would have collected
millions in insurance.

You insured
a high school mural?

We've heard a lot of
bad guy plots, but that is
by far the dumbest.

Makes sense,
we're not a good bank.

Well, in recognition
of your courage,

I hereby pardon you all
from Saturday detention.

(ALL CHEERING)

What's all
the commotion?
Oh, my gosh.

You guys fixed my mural.

All thanks to
the Break-Stuff Club
and me.

And Hamster and Gretel.
Aw, that's great.

Wanna go grab a bite?

Sure, the
Beef Buggy's here

Well, I do like
their one salad.

HIROMI: Hey, where's Fred?
KEVIN: I don't know.

Whoa! Ugh!
