[ Indistinct conversations ]
There they are!
[ Camera shutters clicking ]
Hey, y'all.
Howdy.
Oh, what's up, Gary?
For me?
[ Munches ]
I'll be back
for you later.
Badgerclops, can you give us
a sound bite
on your recent defeat
of the vicious Blorbchomp?
[ Gulps ]
[ Burps ]
He's so real!
Wow, Adorabat,
you're so cool.
Can I have
your autograph?
Anything for a fan.
[ Fans shouting indistinctly ]
All right.
Out of the way.
Official Sheriff Department
business.
Coming through!
You two,
quit hot-dogging around.
Your Grace,
the Blorbchomp hath been slain,
and your kingdom
is once again secure.
Oh, you're very intense,
aren't you?
But I'm afraid we have more
important matters to discuss,
matters of
your public image.
You're very popular.
If my mom could see that,
she would not say
some of the things
that she says.
Give me some jelly.Everybody likes me.
Of course they love us.
We're constantly saving
their worthless butts.
Yes, well,
you see, uh,
that's what I wanted
to talk to you about.
[ Panting ]
Oh, don't be so dramatic,
Quinton.
You see, Sheriff, it seems
the peasants find you, well...
Abrasive? Loud?So what?
People have never
liked me.
Even when I just a little lad,
they always thought I was --
A wet blanket?
A total walnut?
Someone has got to
keep people in line.
A hero doesn't hero
because it makes him popular.
He does it
because it's right.
Who cares what some stupid chart
says anyway?
Well, don't do that.
Seems you care after all,
my boy.
You're skewing the data!
Am I?
Hello there, sweetie pies.
Quick survey.
What do we think
of this indolent throw rug?
-Hey, everybody.
-Total chiller!
And what about this
charming blue thing?
-She's so brave.
-I wish I was you.
And -- And now let's hear it
for our daring sheriff.
Sweetie Pie:
Bring back the blue one.
Sweetie Pie #2:
He's so abrasive!
Sweetie Pie #3: He's like
a real wet blanket. Am I right?
He's a total walnut.
[ Indistinct shouting ]
All right, I get it!
Geez!
No need to yell.
[ Panting ]
Hm, that wasn't as much fun
as I thought it would be.
How do I
make them like me?
It won't be easy.
But we can
make it work.
I will allow you to partake in
any of my royal vestments.
Yeah, yeah, whatever it takes.
Come on.
Let's just
get this over with.
Shush, shush!
You cannot rush greatness,
my friend.
Hmm.
[ Gasps ]
What?
My cuisses!
Give those back!
Those are hero things!
Listen, man. Do you want them
to like you or not?
Ugh, it's about time we got rid
of this tacky little thing.
My cape!
Don't worry, Mao Mao.
I'll keep it safe.
Now, let's focus,
shall we?
What are you doing
with those?
We're going to give you
some personnalité.
No, no,
you -- you can't!
No, wait!
[ Screams ]
Ugh,
is this really necessary?
Oh, be a good sport,
would you?
I need for my imagination
to be piqued.
This little number Mao Mao
is sporting is a simple look
that appeals to generations
old and new.
Is that nostalgia
calling?
Pedestrian.
Next!
While it's not
the best outfit,
it's definitely
the most outfit.
Much too vulgar.
Hark, spring cometh early
with our --
Too dated.
That's over.
Ooh, I see that one
all the time.
[ Gasps ]
Oh, my goodness.
Why,
it's simply perfection.
Ohh.
Ladies and gentle-pies.
You know him.
You don't like him,
but you will now.
Behold, the new and improved
Mao Mao.
Say, isn't he the meanie
from earlier?
[ Sweetie pies grumbling ]
Don't forget
to smile.
[ Roar]
Dude -- dude -- dude,
do it like we talked about.
[ Grunting ]
[ Less gruff voice ] Hey, guys.
Remember me?
I'm the Mao Mao that's living
in the now now.
Pow pow.
-He's so cool.
-So hip.
He's marketable.
[ Normal voice ] Huh?
You know, I guess
this isn't so bad after all.
What was that?
You sounded really unlikable
just now.
[ Less gruff voice ] You must be
hearing things, friend.
I only sound like
the voice of our generation.
Wow. Everything he says
is a window into my own soul.
Hey, Mao Mao.
Do that thing again.
What do you say?
See?
[ Laughs ] What?
You mean this?
Pow pow.

What are you doing,

That's a good one,
Lucky.
Oh, what's a trash fire
between friends?
♪♪
[ Sniffing ]
Trash fires, littering,
graffiti?
These are crimes.
Yeah, right.
The only real crime
is not having fun.
[ Cheering ]
-Now, that's a fact phrase.
I don't like this.
Your new look is cool,
but it's just not you.
Look, I know these guys
are a little corrupt,
but I've never been liked
by so many people before.
I need this, Adorabat.
What's wrong with being
the old Mao Mao?
I liked that Mao Mao,
the real Mao Mao.

Yo, Mao Mao.
