"The Good Lars"

So, how is it?

Be honest, but not too honest.

It's pumpkin bread!

And it's pumpkin-shaped,
like a pumpkin!

This is the best idea
anybody has ever had!

See? I told you.

It's really good.

Of course Steven likes it.

He likes everything.

Lars, did you make this?

No!

Well, yes, but it's no big deal.



Secret's out, Lars.

Feels good, doesn't it?

Ah, stop.

Oh, this is amazing!

How'd you get it
to look like a pumpkin?

I just made seven
small crescent-shaped cakes

and used cream-cheese icing
to hold them together.

Anyone with two hands
and half a brain could do it.

And, you know, a recipe.

That's his way of saying thanks.

I know.
I speak Lars.

B-B-B-Buck Dewey!

- Hi, Buck.
- Hey, Steven.

Hey, doughnut kids.

Hi, Buck, what's up?

How's it going?
What'll it be?

I want to order...
you to come to dinner.

Me, Jenny, and Sour Cream
are having a potluck.

You know, like parents do.

Except we'll be doing it.

All three of you should come.

You should bring some food,

because that's what you do
at a potluck.

It's so funny.

[ Laughs ]

That is funny, Buck!

It sounds great.
Super cool.

Can't wait.
Bingo, bongo.

Cool.

[ Doorbell chimes ]

[ Groans ]

"Bingo, bongo"?

- Where did I even learn that?
- (Steven:) Yeah!

Bingo, bongo!

This is gonna be great.

Hey, yeah, this is perfect.

You won't believe us when
we say we like your cooking,

but you'll have to believe it
when it's coming from Buck.

[ Groans ]

Uh, Lars?

I'm not going.

What?!

You just got invited
to a party with the cool kids!

Isn't that
what you've always wanted?

If anyone shouldn't go, it's me,

but they know you.

They like you!

Unh-unh.
Nobody knows me.

And nobody knows I can bake.

Well, I do, and he does.

Yeah, Lars, you should make this
your big debut.

Well... then,
it has to be perfect.

[ Dog barking ]

- How about a pie?
- No.

Uh, baked Alaska?

It might look like
I'm trying too hard.

Hmm. Hmm. Hmm.

Yeah,
something cream-filled.

A bundt?
A cannoli?

Maybe some rugelach?

I don't know!

Maybe we could make a cake
with your face on it.

That's a great idea!

You should make something
that represents you.

[ Gasps ]

Secret cookbook.

Maybe this'll work.

I used to eat this as a kid
all the time.

Wow.
What's... uby?

It's ube.

What's that?

Uh, like, you know,
it's like a sweet potato.

Potatoes can be sweet?

I mean, it's technically a yam.

Yams?!
This sounds perfect!

It's done.

So, how is it?

It's...

Amazing! Amazing!

This is delicious.

You're an amazing baker, Lars.

Well, yeah, of course I am.

Sorry, Lars.
It's really good.

Guess I have to
take your word for it.

(Sadie:) I'm gonna head out
and get my stuff for the party.

This is it!
It's all happening!

Lars and the cool kids!

See ya there!

Bye, Sadie.

[ Sighs ]

Everything is so good.

(Lars:)
Yeah, too good.

What do you mean?

Uh, never mind.

Aw, come on.

You can tell me anything.

I spent a day in your body.

It's nothing.
Forget about it.

Open up about your feelings.

[ Sighs ]

I'm not worried about the cake.

The cake is gonna rule.

I'm worried about
showing up with a cake.

What do you mean?

There's a reason

I don't like telling anybody
I like baking.

And what's that?

Because it's lame, Steven!

If I show up to this party

with my family's weird
purple cake and with Sadie,

everybody's gonna know
I love baking

and everybody's gonna know
I love...

This isn't gonna be
an ironic potluck.

It's gonna be, like,

family, couple,
neighbor, actual potluck,

and I'm gonna be there
being all bingo, bongo.

These are your friends.

They want you to come.

That's why they invited you...

so they'll
get to know you better.

If they like you, they like you.

If they don't,
then it's their loss.

Right?

That's pretty smart.

When did you get so mature?

Somewhere in between
learning to summon my shield

and finding out
my mom is a war criminal.

Okay!
I'll do it.

Lars!
It's going to go so good!

I got to get going
and make my thing,

but I'll see you there, right?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'll see you.

[ Crickets chirping ]

Hey, man.

Who's feeling lucky?

My, my.
What a feast.

I brought the soda.

I brought the pizza.

I brought the assorted fruit.

I can't wait
for Lars to get here.

He made a... wait, wait,
I shouldn't tell you.

It's a surprise.

That Lars is full of surprises.

The other day,
he did this thing.

What was it?
Bingo, bongo.

It was transcendent.

That is so creative.

Bingo, bongo.

[ Doorbell rings ]
That's him!

Oh, Sadie.

Where's Lars?

He's not here yet?

He's probably
still working on the cake.

This is his ube debut,
after all.

[ Chuckles ]
Why don't you come on in?

Oh, uh...

I love me some cheese.
[ Laughs ]

You and your fancy
cheese plates.

[ Laughs ]

Oh, hey, it's doughnut girl.

Everybody, this is Sadie.

Uh, hi.
I'm Lars' friend.

What's up?
I'm Jenny.

Hey again.
I'm Sour Cream.

Welcome to my house!

So, tell us, Sadie,

what did you bring
to our very cool potluck?

Sorry, I didn't bring any food.

Just these paper plates.

It's just, uh,
they're for Lars' thing,

and he's not even here.

Actually, I probably should
just show myself...

Did you say plates?

Hooray!

Now I don't have to
do the dishes.

Wow, I never thought

anyone could get excited
over paper plates.

I guess they are biodegradable.

But I'm still worried
about Lars.

I'll go find him.
Don't you worry about it.

Hang out, have fun.

You can sit on the bean bag.

Yeah, that bean bag is sick.

You got to try it.

Oh, all right.

[ Grunts ]
What do you know?

I fit.
[ Laughter ]

Told ya.

I'll be right back with Lars.

Now, where could he be?

La-a-a-a-a-a-rs!

Lars!

If only there was some way
to contact him with my mind.

Oh, wait, or with my phone!

[ Cellphone beeping ]

This is Lars.
Leave a message.

[ Beep ]
La-a-a-a-a-rs!

I mean, Lars, hi.

This is Steven.

Uh, I was just wondering
where you were.

The potluck
is going really great.

Everyone's having a nice time,

and we're all excited for you
to come join the fun.

Or maybe I just missed you

and you're already back at the party...
♪♪ [ Music playing ]

and that's the sound
of you enjoying music

with all our friends.

Or maybe you decided
not to go inside.

Th-That's okay, though.

Guess I'll see you later.

(Sour Cream:)
All right!

- Nice! Hey, nice ending.
- Yeah, whoo!

Yeah, Sadie.
That was fresh.

Oh, hey, it's Steven.

Hey, Steven, we've been
having such a blast over here.

Did you find Lars?

Uh, yeah.

He... he can't
make it tonight.

Something came up.

Ah, bummer, huh?

[ Sighs ]

Well, that's okay.

Let's keep playing music.

- Right on.
- Yeah!

Bye, guys. See ya.
Bye, guys.

Later, guys.

So, he decided not to come, huh?

Actually...

Aw, geez. Lars.

Maybe we should've tried harder
to get him to come.

Guess so.

Ugh.

He wants to be in with them
so much.

[ Chuckles ]
It's funny.

I never thought I'd be the one
hanging out with them.

You know, they really are cool.

Like, not like he thinks,

but, like... like,
they're actually cool people.

How's he going to realize that

if he doesn't give them
a chance?

I wish I could just
force him to be happy.

Oh, no.

I sound like my mother.

Maybe I should be trying
to fix my life instead of his.

Bingo, bongo.

Goodnight, Steven.

Goodnight, Sadie.
