Bye!
Thanks for coming!

Man, two customers!

The car wash hasn't been
that busy

since that mud tornado
15 years ago.

They called it
"The mud-nado."

Wow! You've worked here longer
than I've been alive!

How'd you even get this job?

Well, I was hanging out
with your mom, and...

Hold the phone!

Oh, you're getting fast there.

Don't tell me, sing me!

You rascal!



Can I ever tell you a story
without working in a song again?

I'm playing it by ear.

♪ You,
look at everything you are ♪

Oh, that's not even enough
for a bad hot dog.

Sup, Vidalia?

Greg...

What a surprise.

Ready to eat?

You're gonna love
these mushed up carrots!

Ooh!

Someone's excited!

Get ready.

Oh, you're too cool
for mushed up carrots?

Meh.
I'm hungry for babies!

Hey, I'm trying
to negotiate here.

Ooh!
You got the good stuff.

Doesn't your magical girlfriend
know how to cook?

Nah, Rose doesn't really
need to eat, but I do.

Hmm. So have you
done anything lately...

besides worship
everything she does?

I've been working on some songs
for my new album.

Oh, the same new album

you've been working on
for six months?

Yep!

Oh, that's good.

How's baby life?

How does it look?

Hard.

Mind if I bum around here
for the day?

No more than usual.

Man, you're really selling me
on that cereal, Universe.

It's so good!

Come to mama.

Thanks for leaving me
all the cereal dust, Greg!

No problem!

Ugh!
What am I supposed to eat now?

Mmm!
Oh, good idea, Sour Cream!

Coming this fall...

He's a little butler
with a big attitude.

Vidalia, have you seen
this com...

Whoa!
My couch!

Whoops!

I guess I made a mess, huh?

Uhp-uhp! Take it off.

Oh, yeah, sorry.

Whoa, that's a look.

Where'd you get that shirt?

T-shirt shop.

You bought that?

No, it's my uniform.

I work there starting today.

You sold out, V.

Got to grow up sometime.

Hello?

Uh-huh.

Wait, what do you mean
you can't come?

Death in the family?

Wait, a hamster doesn't count!

You can't do this to me!

Look, I... I really need...

Hey! Hello?

Aaaah!

Lousy 12-year-old!

What happened?

Listen, Greg,
my babysitter cancelled.

I need you to watch Sour Cream
for me while I'm at work.

Can you do it?

Oh, yeah.
Why not?

I'm not doing anything.

I think.

Trust me, you're not.

Okay, don't forget,
diaper bag's over there,

snacks are over there.

Emergency number's
on the fridge.

And if anything bad happens
to my kid,

you better pray
your space goddess' magic

can bring people
back from the dead,

because I will destroy you.

Have fun at work.

So, how about it, Sour Cream,

you ready to spend the day
with your rad Unkie Greg?

Meh.

You really are Vidalia's son,
aren't you?

There you go.

Okay. Baby Sour Cream,
meet sun screen.

Oh, can't forget these!

You're one cool baby!

Hi, Greg!

Hi, Rose.

Greg!

Where did you get this
mini human from?

Oh, this is Sour Cream.

Did you make him?

Wh-what?

No. I'm just
babysitting for Vidalia.

Hi, Sour Cream.

I'm Rose.

Hey, let's show this baby
how to beach it.

Yeah!

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Yee-haw!

That feels great!

Hey, Sour Cream, look at me.

I'm a sand man!

I guess he just likes
siting on this blanket.

You wouldn't believe how long
it took me to figure out

that this and you
are the same thing.

What do you mean?

You're both human.

You have to admit,
it's a little confusing.

Your big and can talk,

and he's small
and can only make noises.

How was I supposed to know
you were the same species?

What?

I know, it's silly.

But then I started
to notice that you grow.

Well, can't play guitar
with little baby hands.

When a gem is made,
it's for a reason.

They burst out of the ground

already knowing what they're
supposed to be, and then...

that's what they are.

Forever.

But you, you're supposed
to change.

You're never the same
even moment to moment...

you're allowed and expected
to invent who you are.

What an incredible power...
the ability to "grow up."

Wow.

Those would make
some pretty good lyrics.

Hold on.
Watch Sour Cream a second.

I got to write this down!

All right, what were you saying?

Something really profound,
yet relatable?

Oh, my gosh!
Vidalia is gonna destroy me!

Sour Cream!

Rose!

Where are you guys?!

Rose!

Hyah!

Sour cream?!

Are y'all up there?!

Sour Cream!

Rose cream!

Rose?!

Greg.

Rose!

Wow, you look tired.

Thank goodness I found
the both...

Where's Sour Cream?!

I thought you were gonna
watch him for me!

Oh, I watched him.

I watched him climb
all the way...

up there.

Isn't this exciting?

This'll be a formative
experience for him.

Well, not if he falls!

Come on!

Okay.

I'll try and get him down.

Phew.

Hey, Baby Cream,
stay right there.

Whew.

How can you be so calm
right now?

Uh...
How do I get...

Mmmmmmmmm!

Rose!

Help me out!

Are those the controls
over there?

Right, yes.
Hold on.

I think you got to pull
one of those levers!

This one?

Whoa! It's, uh, going
a little too fast.

Hold on, Sour Cream.

Whoa!

Rose, get me off
this crazy thing!

Ugh!
Leave Greg alone!

No-o-o-o-o-o!

Greg!

Hup!

Aaaah!
Oof!

Greg.

Sour Cream!

Whew!
He's safe.

Why did you let him
climb that thing?

He wanted to.

Well, Rose, you can't just let
him do whatever he wants.

But you do whatever you want,
and you're fine.

Yeah, but I'm not a baby.

I don't need someone to feed me
or change my clothes.

I don't need someone to save me

when I climb on to
a Ferris wheel and...

Oh, man.

Iam a baby.

Do you want to get down?

Yeah.

Aw, look at you. Did you have
fun with Greg, Sour Cream?

Oh, yeah.

Nothing but safe wholesome fun
with Unkie Greg.

Listen, Vidalia,

um, thanks for the food
and everything else.

Today has been quite a journey.

Okay?

Your shirt's clean.

You want it back,
or are you just gonna go

for a topless stroll?

Hey, we all got to grow up
sometime, right?

That's not really relevant
to my question.

♪ I know I'm not that tall

♪ I know I'm not that smart

♪ Let me drive my van
into your wash ♪

♪ Let me drive my van
into your wash ♪

Wow. And you've worked here
ever since.

That's right.

You know, people grow,
whether they want to or not.

But growing up is something
you got to decide to do.

Hey, what ever happened
to Baby Sour Cream?

No one knows.

Meh.
