Here's the second and final part of “Into the Great Wide Open!” / After the commercials finish showing, the action shifts to the contestants in the Green Hot Air Balloon, Captain Retro, Suzie, Reggie, Stimpy, and Dudley. Stimpy says: “We sure have a great view of just about everything from way up here!” Suzie asks: “Excuse me, but just HOW exactly are we supposed to navigate in this thing?! I mean, we are at the mercy of every single stray wind that blows in every conceivable direction!” Dudley says: “Just leave it up to me! I can move this thing with ease!” Reggie asks: “You know how to move this hot air-balloon?!” Dudley says: “Sure! It all comes with T.U.F.F. Training, I've got to know how to navigate anything! You never know when you're going to commandeer a vehicle in a high chase pursuit of a criminal!” Captain Retro asks: “Isn't commandeering just a fancy word for stealing?” Dudley strongly says: “HEY!!!! We reimburse the gas mileage and/or any damage of EVERY single vehicle we have to borrow, with interest! If anything, we're doing the owners a favor!” Captain Retro says: “At least you're being altruistic about it.” Stimpy says: “Don't say altruistic, that just reminds me of Ren's bitter failure without me.” Suzie says: “You're not the only one who has a bitter failure they'd like to forget about. Even Angelica doesn't like it when anyone mentions Angelica and Suzie's Preschool Daze.” Dudley says: “In any case, we'll make good time to El Paso, Texas.” Reggie says: “Let's not forget, we have to make eight stops, as listed on our map.” Captain Retro replies: “Why do you think I suggested the Hot Air-balloon? We'll see all our locations very easily, and Dudley's expert navigation experience will make sure that landing and departing is a breeze!” Stimpy says: “In that case, all we have to worry about is our song.” Reggie says: “As a matter of fact, I know of a perfect song, all about my friend.” Suzie asks: “Which friend?” Reggie says: “Eddie, the Prince of the Netherworld!” Dudley says: “That sounds like a cool song to sing!” (Beep! Beep! Ba-beep! Beep! Beep!) Sniz's voice comes over the communicators, and Sniz says: “And you will sing it now. After all, there's a reason WHY we picked Into the Great Wide Open for our episode title THIS time!” Captain Retro says: “No problem! We will sing right away!” /

Genre: Heartland Rock. Sub-genre: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Song: “Into the Great Wide Open.” Sung by: Reggie Rocket, Captain Retro, Stimpy, Dudley, and Suzie Carmichael. / Reggie: “Eddie waited till he finished high school, he went to Hollywood, got a tattoo. He met a girl out there with a tattoo too, the future was wide open. They moved into a place they both could afford, he found a nightclub he could work at the door. She had a guitar and she taught him some chords, the sky was the limit.” Captain Retro: “Into the great wide open, under them skies of blue.” Stimpy: “Out in the great wide open.” Dudley: “A rebel without a clue.” Reggie: “The papers said Ed always played from the heart, he got an agent and a roadie named Bart. They made a record and it went in the charts, the sky was the limit. His leather jacket had chains that would jingle. They both met movie stars, partied and mingled. Their A&R man said, 'I don't hear a single,' the future was wide open.” Captain Retro and Stimpy: “Into the great wide open, under them skies of blue.” Dudley: “Out in the great wide open.” Suzie: “A rebel without a clue.” Captain Retro and Dudley: “Into the great wide open, under them skies of blue.” Stimpy: “Out in the great wide open.” Suzie: “A rebel without a clue.” / And the epic song ends. Reggie says: “Pretty awesome, huh? And might I add, it's all true, to!” (Confessional) Stimpy says: “If you ask me, I honestly think that Suzie Carmichael worries too much. After all, Captain Retro can see multiple futures! He wouldn't have picked this mode of transportation unless he was absolutely sure!” /

Suzie says: “Don't get me wrong, I'm GLAD to get away from Patrick, but I have serious doubts about this hot air-balloon thing. I mean, we're completely vulnerable to ALL the elements, not just the wind. And what if one of us has to go to the bathroom while we're traveling in the air?! That's not a very attractive THOUGHT that's stuck in my mind!” / Dudley says: “Being a member of T.U.F.F. Is all about having common decency, and a policy of honesty. And we are always prompt in our payments to anyone we need to give money to. That's why T.U.F.F. IS the number one most trusted agency in Petropolis!” / Captain Retro says: “It never ceases to amaze me how different all the Nicktoons all are from each other. They all have different sets of rules, different types of humor, and all the characters I have met seem really different from each other. It hasn't been easy to carve out a unique niche for myself. Of course, once my own show DOES eventually get put on the air, everyone will get to see just how COOL my brand of action and retro humor can be!” / Reggie says: “Up until now, I have never really had a chance to come up with a cool song all on my own. This gave me a unique opportunity to shine. It definitely improves my chances of getting to the Final Three. After all, potential juries love a girl who likes to take charge and make tough decisions that can't be made anywhere else. Nothing is more important than winning this, and becoming the first female contestant to win one of these Total Cartoon seasons!” (End Confessional) The action shifts to the contestants on the Blue Train, Rocko, Bulma, Dog, Wally, and Marlene. Marlene says: “Okay, everyone just follow my lead and EVERYTHING will turn out fine!” Bulma scoffs and retorts: “YOUR lead?! I'm the one who's running THIS show!” Wally says: “Technically, you're wrong. SNIZ is the one running THIS show!” Dog asks: “Why can't it be ME running the action?!” Marlene and Bulma simultaneously say: “Because you already WON last season! WHAT?! You noticed THAT, to?!” Marlene chuckles nervously and says: “I totally did NOT plan to say the exact same thing YOU were saying when YOU said it! That was a TOTAL accident!” Bulma smiles and says: “No problem! You're a very smart otter! Here I was, thinking that I HAD no intellectual equal that I could talk to; when as it turns out, I have a very smart, hilarious woman RIGHT here!”

Marlene gasps and exclaims: “You think I'm HILARIOUS?!” Bulma smiles and says: “Trust me, if Hollywood EVER remakes Funny Girl, and YOU starred in it, YOU would make Barbra Streisand's version look like a TRAGEDY!” (Confessional) Marlene exclaims: “O.M.G!!!! Bulma thinks I'm smart AND hilarious! I've never heard Bulma genuinely complement ANYBODY, except for maybe Zarbon. If I can outsmart Bulma Briefs and get HER out, there would be NOBODY left in this competition who could beat me, not even Captain Retro! And he won't DARE try to get me out! Want to know how I know that? It's called Lover's Remorse. Once someone HAS loved you, they won't do ANYTHING bad against you, especially in a show of THIS nature! Otherwise, everyone would HATE him, and I know Captain Retro doesn't want THAT! I have got THIS game in the palm of my hands!” / Bulma says: “Now that I've got some quality time to get Marlene ALONE with me and AWAY from Skipper, this marks the PERFECT opportunity for me to get Marlene on MY side and convince her that I've got nothing diabolic PLANNED against her! Do I think she's funny? Yes. Do I think she smart? I'll put it this way; she's SMART for an otter, but nowhere NEAR the level of genius that I am! If she thinks that she can outsmart me, she's wrong! I already HAVE her end game planned in the back of my mind! I just have to keep being a PRETEND friend to her until she's no longer useful to me. And when that time inevitably comes, MAN!!!! She will be blindsided like NOBODY'S ever been blindsided before! This will be as EASY as Calculus!”

(End Confessional) Rocko says: “It doesn't matter WHO runs the action on this train, what matters is that we have a game plan. So, does ANYONE have a game plan?” Bulma says: “IF everyone PROMISES not to groan upon hearing me speak, I have a plan of action I'd like to share!” Everyone else simultaneously says: “We promise not to groan.” Bulma says: “Very well, then. The good news is, I have studied the map thoroughly. Our flag locations are located RIGHT on the path of the railroad this train is traveling on! The bad news is, our flag locations are located RIGHT on the path of the railroad this train is traveling on! In other words, our flags are located on mail posts on the side of the railroad. If we don't grab every single flag as we pass BY it, we'll have to get OFF the train and potentially WALK the rest of the way to El Paso, Texas. And if we have to walk, we will surely end up losing!” Wally asks: “So, how do we make sure that we don't end up missing any flags?” Bulma answers: “I've already thought of that. Marlene and I will take the front of the train, and sit next to the windows on the left side of the train, and the right side of the train, respectively, of course. As we come up to the flags, we will grab them. Rocko, you and Wally will take the middle of the train, sitting next to the windows on the left side of the train and the right side of the train respectively. That way, we have a SECOND chance of grabbing the flags, if we don't grab them the first time.” Dog asks: “And what do I do?” Bulma seriously THINKS about it, and says: “YOU...can be, President of the back of the Train!” (Confessional)

Bulma says: “What is it about ME speaking that makes everyone AROUND me groan their HEADS off?! Well, one thing is for sure, nobody will DARE groan about ME speaking once I inevitably WIN this whole competition like I was ALWAYS meant to!” / Wally says: “You know, I think that everyone who HEARS Bulma talk, would probably groan a WHOLE lot less, if she didn't sound so COMPLETELY conceited about herself when she DID talk! It makes me wonder how ANYONE from Dragonball Z puts UP with her!” / Dog asks: “Can Bulma SERIOUSLY not think of anything USEFUL for me to do, or is she just trying to WRITE me off without even TRYING to think about it?! I can be USEFULL! I just need an opportunity to PROVE myself!” (End Confessional) Dog is flabbergasted and says: “That's it?! Why can't I do MORE than that?!” Bulma groans and says: “FINE! You can pick the song we ALL have to sing!” Dog says: “Better! I'm thinking of a song by The Traveling Wilbury's, you know, the group that Roy Orbison, George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and Jeff Lynne were all in?” Marlene says: “I like the sound of that! Tom Petty is my favorite LIVING Wilbury!” Rocko asks: “Favorite living?” Marlene says: “George Harrison is my favorite, but...he's passed on. So...that makes Tom Petty my favorite living Wilbury.” (Beep! Beep! Ba-Beep! Beep! Beep!) Over the communicators, Sniz says: “And speaking of the Traveling Wilbury's, it's time to MAKE like them, as you travel to the end of the line, if you catch my drift!” Rocko says: “Don't worry about, we DEFINITELY catch your drift!”

Genre: Folk Rock. Sub-Genre: George Harrison and Tom Petty. Song: “End of the Line.” Sung by: Rocko, Wally, Dog, Marlene, and Bulma. / Dog: “Well it's all right, riding around in the breeze. Rocko: “Well it's all right, if you live the life you please.” Marlene: “Well it's all right, doing the best you can.” Wally: “Well it's all right, as long as you lend a hand.” Bulma and Wally: “You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring. (End of the Line). Waiting for someone to tell you everything. (End of the Line). Sit around and wonder what tomorrow will bring. (End of the Line). Maybe a diamond ring.” Dog: “Well it's all right, even if they say you're wrong.” Marlene: “Well it's all right, sometimes you gotta be strong.” Rocko: “Well it's all right, as long as you got somewhere to lay.” Wally: “Well it's all right, everyday is Judgment Day.” Bulma and Dog: “Maybe somewhere down the road a ways. (End of the Line). You'll think of me, wonder where I am these days. (End of the Line). Maybe somewhere down the road when somebody plays. (End of the Line). Purple haze.” Dog: “Well it's all right, even when push comes to shove.” Rocko: “Well it's all right, if you got someone to love.” Wally: “Well it's all right, everything will work out fine.”

Marlene: “Well it's all right, we're going to the end of the line.” Rocko and Bulma: “Don't have to be ashamed of the car I drive. (End of the Line). I'm just glad to be here, happy to be alive. (End of the Line). It don't matter if you're by my side. (End of the Line). I'm satisfied.” Dog: “Well it's all right, even if you're old and gray.” Marlene: “Well it's all right, you still got something to say.” Rocko: “Well it's all right, remember to live and let live.” Wally: “Well it's all right, the best you can do is forgive.” Dog: “Well it's all right, riding around in the breeze.” Bulma: “Well it's all right, if you live the life you please.” Wally: “Well it's all right, even if the sun don't shine.” Dog and Marlene: “Well it's all right, we're going to the end of the line.” / And the epic song ends. /

(Confessional) Bulma says: “The one thing that always bugged me about the type of life that I live, is it NEVER gave me any good opportunities to SING! Here, I get to shine like the GODDESS I truly am! Marlene's cute, but I HIGHLY doubt that she will EVER be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! That honor is reserved for ME!” / Wally says: “I'm no expert in being able to guess on how other contestants PERCEIVE other contestants, but I think I can safely say that it REALLY says a lot when the majority of the other contestants, find Bulma Briefs to be FAR more annoying than me, and I haven't even BEEN annoying in any way, shape, or form this season! And I certainly have no intention of EVER being annoying! Honestly, does Bulma ALWAYS have to get a word in edge-wise? She better start checking herself before she wrecks herself.” / Rocko says: “If this were a cake eating contest, Bulma would DEFINITELY take the cake, as far as having brains go. But when it comes to having a heart, Bulma REALLY lacks having any empathy and understanding of her fellow contestants. And I think that Bulma will eventually find out the hard way, that when you don't take the time to understand where anyone else comes from, in terms of their experiences or the way they think, it will REALLY end up costing her in the long run.” (End Confessional) / The action shifts to the contestants in the red car, Zarbon, Skipper, Chameleon, Po, and Patrick! Zarbon is driving the car, and is speeding down the highway, living life in the fast lane! Skipper asks: “What's the big DEAL, Zarbon?!” Patrick asks: “Can't we go a LITTLE slower?!” Chameleon says: “I don't want to sound like a DRAG, but you're going to get us ALL killed!” Po says: “And besides, you're BREAKING the speed limit! That's AGAINST the law!” Zarbon says: “It's ONLY against the law if you get CAUGHT!!!! Besides, I am NOT losing to that JERKFACE named Captain Retro again!” Skipper asks: “What's the matter? You think Captain Retro is going to TRY to take Bulma, to?” Zarbon sputters and yells: “Like he HAS a shot! I'm only interested in taking him DOWN a notch! No FAN character is going to get the best of ME!” A siren is suddenly heard, as Jenny from “My Life As a Teenage Robot” suddenly starts FLYING after them! Jenny says: “STOP!!!! In the name of the law!” Zarbon yells: “NOT for all the money in the WORLD, you metallic FREAK!!!!” And Zarbon REALLY steps on it, and Jenny increases her speed, as well. Despite the speed, Zarbon manages to keep the car ON the road, and doesn't hit any other vehicles!

Po says: “Come ON, Zarbon! You're GOING to get into TROUBLE!!!!” Zarbon sarcastically says: “As IF!!!! The long arm of the law will NEVER catch ME!!!!” And the car SUDDENLY screeches to a halt, as it is revealed, that Jenny has STRETCHED her arms into a LONG length, causing the car to stop! Jenny says: “When an officer of the law tells you to STOP, you should either SLOW down, or preferably, FREEZE! Where are you going to in such a hurry?!” Zarbon yells: “None of your BUSINESS, you Futurama REJECT!!!!” Jenny angrily says: “Oh, you're a SMART mouth, aren't you?! Do you KNOW what happens to smart mouths in the state of New Mexico?!” Zarbon snidely asks: “A warning? You DON'T scare me!”

Jenny angrily yells: “Oh yeah?! OH, YEAH?!!!!” And Jenny suddenly unleashes her FULL array of weapons arsenal concealed in her body, and points it STRAIGHT at Zarbon!!!! Jenny angrily yells: “Does THIS scare YOU?!!!” Zarbon gets an anime sweat drop and nervously says: “YEP!!!! That would do it! But thankfully, I have come PREPARED! Arrow of LIGHT!!!!” And Zarbon throws down an arrow of light onto the ground, and it temporarily blinds Jenny's robotic vision! Zarbon says: “Time to get out of DODGE!!!! I'm WINNING no matter WHAT it TAKES!!!!” And Zarbon zooms away, as Jenny regains her vision. Jenny moans and asks herself: “WHY do they ALWAYS have to do it the HARD way?! Engage CHASE mode!” And Jenny once again resumes her chase after Zarbon! Skipper sarcastically says: “Nice decision making, JERK!!!! Anything ELSE you want to do, like trying to ruin somebody ELSES relationship?!” Zarbon sarcastically rolls his eyes and says: “If I HONESTLY cared, I would ask what you were talking about!” Skipper says: “Don't play games with ME; you TRIED to get me to HATE Marlene the other day, with that BOGUS picture you printed! I'm ONTO you!” Zarbon chuckles EVILLY as he says: “And do you think you can do ANYTHING to stop ME?! I wouldn't LET you! In fact, I would be willing to pull a Thelma and Louise, and drive this car OFF a cliff, just to get rid of ALL of you!” Chameleon is SHOCKED and says: “YOU wouldn't DARE!!!!” Zarbon says: “Don't tempt me. After all, what is SNIZ going to do? Threaten to put ME in jail?! I think we all know THAT'S never going to happen, because there's NO jail in the universe that could HOLD me! I have the upper hand here, and YOU can't stop me!” Patrick says: “We can stop you from WINNING!!!!” Zarbon sarcastically says: “I would LOVE to see ALL of you TRY, and FAIL, just like every other PEON that tries to stop me from taking what is RIGHTFULLY mine!!!!” But at that moment, Po angrily SNAPS and says: “THAT does it!!!! I don't CARE if this COSTS me my game, but YOU are getting YOUR comeuppance NOW!!!!” And Zarbon GENUINELY gets nervous! (Confessional)

For some reason, Zarbon is now wearing an eye-patch over his left eye. Zarbon says: “In my ambitious plan to win, it seems I over-looked one key FLAW in my plan; I NEVER thought that anyone would get DESPERATE enough to stop me, that they would genuinely sacrifice their OWN game, just to TRY to stop me! I must admit, I didn't think the Panda was going to go through with it. I genuinely underestimated him. But I WON'T underestimate Captain Retro in the same way!” / Po is in an angry huff, and angrily says: “I'm normally all about kindness and compassion, but Zarbon crossed a line with me! There's only so much narcissism and arrogance a guy can take before they can't take anymore. I guess Tigress influenced me MORE than I thought she did!” / Skipper says: “And here I was, thinking that I was the ONLY one who made impulse, rash decisions. But Po came out of NOWHERE to take us ALL off guard! I must say, I'm actually impressed!” / Patrick says: “I'm going to say that Po had the right idea to try to take Zarbon out of the equation, but he went about it in the wrong way.” / Chameleon says: “This is the PRECISE reason on WHY I got out of the villainy business, all it can do is get you HURT, BADLY! Although in Zarbon's case, I think he genuinely deserved it!” (End Confessional) Po JUMPS to the front of the car, and starts to BRUTALLY punch Zarbon's stomach and face, knocking him back and forth several times as the car starts to veer out of control! Skipper says: “WOAH!!!! I better take control of this thing! And Skipper takes over the wheel as Po continues to HIT Zarbon WHERE it hurts! Po angrily says: “You have HAD this coming for the ENTIRE season, ZARBON!!!!” And with a MASSIVE left hook, Po hits Zarbon DIRECTLY in his left eye, causing him to WINCE in gut-wrenching PAIN!!!! Zarbon nervously gets out a mirror, and he is HORRIFIED by how he now LOOKS! Zarbon gasps and nervously asks: “My FACE?! What happened to my face?! YOU BROKE MY FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH, NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY POOR FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” (Beep! Beep! Ba-Beep! Beep! Beep!) Sniz comes over the communicators and speaks: “It sounds like someone just DIED!!!!” Zarbon yells: “WORSE!!!! Po just ROYALLY ruined MY face!!!!” Po angrily says: “He HAD it coming!!!!” Sniz says: “Even so, I don't care WHAT you're doing right now! You are going to SING your song!” Skipper says: “Fortunately, I know of one that fits our situation right now! A certain song by Sammy Hagar, BEFORE he joined Van Halen!” Patrick says: “Even I know which song you're talking about, and I don't have any better ideas! We'll sing it!” /

Genre: Hard Rock. Sub-Genre: Van Halen (Sammy Hagar). Song: “I Can't Drive 55.” Sung by: Skipper, Zarbon, Patrick, Chameleon, Po and Gordon Quid. / Skipper: “One foot on the brake and one on the gas, hey!” Patrick: “Well, there's too much traffic, we can't pass, no!” Zarbon: “So I tried my best illegal move, a big blue and white comes and crushes my groove again!” (Jenny pulls over and stops them). Zarbon: “Go on and write me up for 125! Post my face, wanted dead or alive! Take my license, all that jive! I can't drive 55! Oh no! Uh!!!!” (Scene shifts to a courtroom, featuring Gordon Quid as the Judge. Zarbon now has an eye-patch over his left eye). Chameleon: “So I signed my name on number 24, hey!” Po: “Yeah the judge said--.” Gordon: "Boy, just one more, huh! I'm gonna throw your (distorted) in the city joint!" Po: “Looked me in the eye, said--.” Gordon: "You get my point?" Po: “I say, Yeah! Oh yeah!” Zarbon: “Write me up for 125! Post my face, wanted dead or alive! Take my license, all that jive! I can't drive 55! Oh yeah! I can't drive 55! I can't drive 55! I can't drive 55! I can't drive, 55! Uh!” (Guitar Solo) (Jenny knocks Zarbon out with a baton, and the scene changes to Zarbon getting dragged to a jail cell). Zarbon: “When I drive that slow, you know it's hard to steer! And I can't get my car out of second gear!” Skipper: “What used to take two hours now takes all day!” Patrick: “Huh, it took us 16 hours to get to Albuquerque!” Zarbon: “Go on and write me up for 125! Post my face, wanted dead or alive! Take my license, all that jive! I can't drive 55!” (Zarbon KNOCKS down the jail bars, allowing the contestants to escape, and the scene changes to the contestants back in their red car, with Zarbon once again driving). Zarbon and Skipper: “No, no, no, I can't drive! (I can't drive 55!) I can't drive! (I can't drive 55!)” Zarbon: “I can't drive 55! I can't drive 55!” And the epic song ends. / (Confessional)

Po face-palms himself and says: “I'll admit, I did NOT handle myself as WELL as I should have in this challenge. I succumbed to temptation, and I'm SURELY going to pay the price for it if we lose, which is VERY likely, considering that we were IN that jail cell for FAR longer than the editing of this show would allow you to believe! But if I had TODAY to do all over again, I would probably STILL punch Zarbon in the face, just because it's a once in a life-time opportunity!” / Zarbon, wearing the eye-patch over his left eye, angrily says: “Mark my words, today is the first, LAST, and ONLY day that ANYONE, especially PO, will be ABLE to punch MY face!” / Chameleon says: “Do me a HUGE, gigantic favor, Sniz; make sure Dudley NEVER sees what I did in this episode! I am not at ALL proud of ANYTHING that my group DID in this episode!” / Skipper says: “What Po did to Zarbon, I would also LOVE to do to Zarbon! The thing of it is, I've already BEEN eliminated TWICE this season, and I do NOT want to rack up penalty votes by hitting Zarbon! I want to be close to Marlene, and I REFUSE to let Zarbon get to me, no matter WHAT he says or does! I am taking the moral high road.” / Patrick says: “Honestly, I don't know WHY I have been having such BAD luck this season! Every group I get put INTO, seems to suffer a great misfortune of SOME kind or another! The only GOOD thing about it, is that I haven't been eliminated! I can only hope my good luck will prevail AGAIN by the end of the day!” (End Confessional)

The action shifts to a hotel in El Paso, Texas, and Fondue is monitoring a radar. The radar suddenly starts beeping with incoming bogey and Fondue says: “Sniz! We've got incoming contestants on our radar!” Sniz says: “Well, it's about time! It was TAKING them long enough!” And sure enough, the green hot air balloon gently descends down into the parking lot of the hotel. Sniz says: “Green group! It looks like you got here first! I trust you have all the flags!” And Captain Retro hands him eight green flags. Sniz says: “Well done! Your group gets first place and the V.I.P. Lounge Treatment!” Dudley says: “You SEE, Suzie?! Maybe now, you won't be so quick to judge my skills!” Suzie: “You got lucky ONCE, so don't get cocky, OKAY, Dudley?!” (Confessional) Suzie says: “I HAD to bring Dudley down to Earth! You don't GET far in a competition of this nature by overestimating your OWN skills! I made that mistake LAST season, and I'm not letting ANYONE who wants a partnership with me, make that same mistake! That would be a very BIG disaster for me!” / Dudley sighs and says: “Sometimes, I would like to have Captain Retro's skill, to have the ability to see just how other people think.” / Captain Retro says: “Suzie is very determined to get to the Final Three this season, but determination only goes so far. You have to have the heart and soul to win, as well. Suzie is very soulful, but she STILL needs to respect her competition, before she has a CHANCE of getting into the Final Three!” (End Confessional) Suddenly, the blue train comes pulling up close to the hotel. The contestants on that train get off! Sniz says: “Blue Group, do you have all your flags?!” Bulma asks: “Do ALL arachnids have eight legs?! The answer to both questions is OBVIOUS; yes, we do!” And Bulma presents all eight flags. Sniz says: “Well done. That means you're in the not totally winners, but not totally losers category!” Marlene nervously says: “But THAT would mean--!” And the red car comes pulling up to the hotel. Sniz says: “Red Group, it doesn't matter whether or not you have all YOUR flags, you have come in LAST!!!!” Chameleon says: “I TOLD you it was a bad idea to go OVER the speed limit! But NOPE!!!! Nobody EVER listens to somebody who's actually BEEN through experiences like that!” Sniz gasps and says: “And WHAT happened to Zarbon's FACE?!!! Who is RESPONSIBLE for hurting such a creature of beauty?!!!” Zarbon growls angrily and says: “PO is the one who DID this to me!” Sniz angrily says: “Po, is this TRUE?!!!” Po honestly says: “Yes, I did it and I don't feel BAD about it! So go ahead, hit me with penalty votes. I'll take them.”

Sniz smiles and says: “All right, but just know, you will be hit with FOUR penalty votes! You'd have to HAVE everyone ON your group AND yourself to NOT vote for you in order to stay in! Do we NEED to actually vote?!” Zarbon says: “I'll save you the trouble, I'm VOTING off Po!” Sniz says: “That's all we need to know. Po, you can pack your bags, cause you are OUT of the competition!” Po says: “Suits me just as well, I was MISSING being together with Tigress ANYWAYS!!!!” Po goes onto the plane and gets his bags. Po then walks out and says: “Oh, and don't think that karma is done with you YET, Zarbon! You're in for FAR worse if you don't CHANGE your wicked ways! May I take the red car?” Sniz shrugs and says: “Suit yourself, we have no use for it.” Po says: “Oh, yeah! I KNEW taking driving lessons from Tigress was a good idea! Tigress, I'm coming BACK for you!” And Po drives away! Sniz says: “And like that, Po is out of the competition! Will Zarbon EVER recover from his painful experience? Will Captain Retro be able to keep dodging elimination ceremonies? Will Bulma continue to LIKE Zarbon DESPITE his horrific injury?! Find out the answers to these questions and maybe more, on Total Cartoon Global Cruise!” / Episode Notes: This marks the first time since WAY back in the episode of “Private Idaho,” that a contestant has been HIT with, and eliminated BECAUSE of penalty votes. In this case, Po is eliminated, meaning all the representatives of “Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness” have now been eliminated!

Stimpy and Dog form a Champion Alliance in this episode, and Bulma forms an Alliance with Marlene. Due to Po hitting him in the face, Zarbon NOW has to temporarily wear an eye-patch over his left eye, making this the FIRST time in this season that Zarbon has suffered a grave injury in the competition. Featured songs in this episode are “Say You Will Be There; Miss You Much; Into the Great Wide Open” (also the name of this episode); “End of the Line,” and “I Can't Drive 55.” / Personal Notes: I don't know why I delayed finishing up this episode; I had personal reasons for taking my time, as well as needing to attend to matters that I needed to take care of, but at least I got this story finished. It seems that the closer Zarbon GETS to the Final Three, the more desperate SOME contestants become to try to stop him from getting there. Even someone as good as Po, got fed up with Zarbon's behavior, and TRIED to take the most DIRECT way of getting Zarbon OUT of the competition! Even if the action was WARRANTED, it wasn't the correct way of dealing with the problem. And because of that, Po had to pay the price for his own actions. But at least he went out with his dignity, by going out on his own terms. And I promise that the next episode will be even better, and will come out even SOONER! / That's my episode idea THIS time! Enough said, true believers!

Whoa...did not see THAT coming. Zarbon should not have messed with Po.

[4EverGreen]

Get ready, people! Things are about to get tense in Central America! It's time to go into the Undercover of the Night! / Sniz is in the cock-pit and says: “Last time on Total Cartoon Global Cruise, it was time for a race, from Buena Vista, Colorado, to El Paso, Texas! The action was divided into three groups. One was on a hot-air balloon, one was on a train, and another was in a car. The groups that took the train and the hot-air balloon did pretty well. The team that took the car? They got into a power struggle! More specifically, Po and Zarbon did! In a really SHOCKING display of physical violence, Po did something that seems more in line with something that Tigress would do, and Po BRUTALLY hit Zarbon right in the left eye! ALMOST makes you feel SORRY for Zarbon, ALMOST! The group that took the car, came in last. Because Po physically hit Zarbon, it cost Po four penalty votes, and that sent Po packing out of the game. Now, we're back on the plane, heading towards the dark jungle of Central America, and I have a feeling that things are about to become VERY dark in this episode, and not just because of the night! Will Zarbon be able to cope with only ONE good eye in this episode? Will a DOUBLE Elimination spell trouble for two of our favorite contestants? And who will be subject to the effects of a rare, Blue Moon? All these questions and more just might be answered, on a brand new Total Cartoon (sings) Global Cruise!”

Instead of the usual show open, Zarbon and Bulma walk arrogantly onto the screen, COMPLETELY dressed in all black, including Zarbon's black eye-patch over his left eye. Scenes of all their past evil deeds are shown as they sing their version of a ROCKING AC/DC hit song! / Genre: Hard Rock. Sub-Genre: AC/DC (the band). Song: “Back In Black.” Sung by: Zarbon! / Zarbon: “Back in black, I hit the sack! I've been too long, I'm glad to be back! Yes I am let loose from the noose, that's kept me hanging about! I kept looking at the sky cause it's getting me high! Forget the hearse cause I'll never die! I got nine lives, cat's eyes!” Bulma: “Abusing every one of them and running wild cause I'm back! Yes, I'm back! Well, I'm back! Yes, I'm back!” Zarbon: “Well I'm back; back! Well, I'm back in black! Yes, I'm back in black! Back in the back of a Cadillac! Number one with a bullet, I'm a power pack! Yes, I am in a bang with the gang! They've got to catch me if they want me to hang! Cause I'm back on the track and I'm beating the flack! Nobody's gonna get me on another rap!” Bulma: “So look at me now, I'm just making my play! Don't try to push your luck, just get out of my way cause I'm back! Yes, I'm back! Well, I'm back! Yes, I'm back!” Zarbon: “Well I'm back; back! Well, I'm back in black! Yes, I'm back in black! (Instrumental solo) Well I'm back, yes I'm back! Well I'm back, yes I'm back! Well I'm back; back! Well, I'm back in black! Yes, I'm back in black! Ho, yeah! Oh, yeah! Yes I am! Oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah! Back in now! Well I'm back, I'm back!” Zarbon and Bulma: “Back, (I'm back)! Back, (I'm back)! Back, (I'm back)! Back, (I'm back)!” Zarbon: “Back; Back in black! Yes, I'm back in black!” / And the epic song ends. / “Back In Black Cat!”

It's night time, and the plane is flying towards its next destination. Captain Retro, Dudley, Reggie, Suzie, and Stimpy are all relaxing in the comfort of the V.I.P. Lounge. Reggie says: “So, THIS is how the OTHER half lives! I can see why you're fond of winning, Captain Retro.” Captain Retro says: “I only need to stay safe until both Bulma and Zarbon are out.” Dudley says: “That shouldn't be TOO hard, seeing as how Zarbon's beauty has been SHATTERED thanks to Po! I'm glad SOMEBODY did it!” Suzie says: “Agreed. With Zarbon's facial features now compromised, I'm thinking that even BULMA won't want to stay around him for much longer!” Captain Retro says: “Even if that WERE true, Zarbon is going to be VERY ticked off with this setback! There's no telling WHAT lengths he will go to in order to win today!” Stimpy says: “The sad thing is, if it weren't for BULMA, Zarbon might not be DOING any of these things he is doing!” Dudley asks: “What do you mean?”

Stimpy says: “Think about it. Why HAS Zarbon been attacking us relentlessly? The only thing Zarbon is accomplishing, is making himself look WORSE to everyone else in the competition!” Reggie asks: “Don't you think Zarbon REALIZES that?!” Stimpy says: “If it were anyone else, I would think they would. But in Zarbon's case, I think he genuinely doesn't REALIZE what he's doing!” Suzie asks: “And why is that?” Stimpy says: “I think it's because Zarbon genuinely LOVES Bulma, that's why he's doing all the things he has done so far. Bulma is LEADING him on in the hopes that Zarbon will be together with HER once the competition is over! But if you ask ME, I think Bulma is leading Zarbon down a path of deception and lies!” Captain Retro says: “Your insight serves you well, Stimpy. It proves that you are a key asset to stopping this plan of Bulma's and Zarbon's.” Dudley asks: “Any idea how long this has been going on?” Captain Retro says: “Since the Olympics episode at the very least, possibly longer. Reggie nervously says: “But if BULMA is leading Zarbon on; that would mean...!” It then DAWNS on everyone in there, and they all simultaneously say: “Bulma is PLANNING on BETRAYING Zarbon!!!!” Suzie says: “I don't understand. Captain Retro, I thought you said that Zarbon was planning on BETRAYING Taotie!” Captain Retro says: “That's what I thought at first. But the time-line of this competition has GREATLY shifted in ways that I couldn't have foreseen. It's been very unpredictable, and I haven't been able to get a proper gauge, until recently.” Stimpy says: “If that's what DOES end up happening, Zarbon is in for a WORLD of hurt when Bulma BETRAYS him!” Reggie says: “That spells out NOTHING but bad karma, for Bulma!” Suzie asks: “But doesn't Zarbon DESERVE it for all the despicable STUNTS he's pulled this season?!” Dudley says: “Maybe Zarbon doesn't KNOW any better! I mean, Chameleon used to be a villain, but he changed! He just needed someone to believe in him!” Captain Retro says: “You're forgetting one piece of the puzzle, Chameleon WANTED to change his ways! Even if Zarbon DOES want to change, I'm not sure if he knows how, or if he even wants to.” Stimpy asks: “Can't you read Zarbon's aura?” Captain Retro says: “It's too risky. If I try to read his Aura, it's possible Zarbon could sense me and then try to stop me! I can't allow that to happen!” Reggie asks: “So what ARE we going to do?” Stimpy says: “It's a long shot, but I've GOT to try to CONVINCE Zarbon that Bulma will TRY to betray him! There's a chance that with the amount of good karma I've gathered, that Zarbon just might listen to me!” Suzie asks: “And what if THAT doesn't work?” Captain Retro says: “Well, we won't know ANYTHING unless somebody tries something!”

Dudley says: “That's very true.” Stimpy says: “Besides, I think Bulma has already got her eyes on eliminating me AND Dog next! Call it a hunch, but this upcoming challenge just might be a DOUBLE elimination! And seeing as how both Dog and I are former champions, we're right on the top of Bulma's hit list. And I don't know about you, but I don't want to go out having not DONE anything about Bulma! I want my time on this season to mean something!” Captain Retro says: “You're very brave, Stimpy. I'm sure that Lil, Ren, and your children are proud of you.” Stimpy says: “I'm almost certain that they are.” (Confessional) Captain Retro says: “It won't be too much longer now; the amount of possibilities that remain, are narrowing down fast! I estimate that within the next eight eliminated contestants, Bulma WILL betray Zarbon, and it will be up to ME to try to take Bulma out! After that, my game will be all but ended. How exactly it ends, will be all up to fate.” / Stimpy says: “I kept telling myself, that there was a reason my game play was lasting so long this season! And I have finally found out what it is! Zarbon MAY be a bad guy, but even HE doesn't deserve such a heinous betrayal like the one Bulma Briefs must be planning! Besides, what kind of a cat would I be if I just LET the betrayal happen? I wouldn't be a very good one, that's for sure!” /

Suzie says: “If Stimpy can actually pull this off, I'll OFFICIALLY ratchet him up to a ten on my respect-o-meter!” / Reggie says: “People who PLAN horrible betrayals, will almost ALWAYS see their best laid plans go up in flames! Mark my words, nothing GOOD is going to happen to Bulma!” / Dudley says: “I always thought that Chameleon had the capacity for being decent, but Zarbon is a lot harder to figure out. At this point, I'm not sure what's going to happen next. All I know is, I want Stimpy to succeed. Not just because I like Stimpy, but I don't want to see Bulma's planned betrayal to end up going down. It is BOUND to be ugly!” (End Confessional) The action shifts to normal class, where all the other contestants are resting, and contemplating their next move. Skipper snidely asks: “So, Zarbon? Why are you all dressed in black? Someone DIE recently?!” Zarbon turns around and growls angrily, showing his black eye-patch! Zarbon angrily says: “Open your big, FAT beak at ME again and I'll make sure your NEXT elimination is PERMANENT!!!! Do you catch my drift?!” Bulma seriously says: “On behalf of MARLENE, I order YOU to stand DOWN!!!!” Zarbon sputters and asks: “WHAT?!!! Why do I have to stand DOWN?!” Bulma says: “I have recently become friends with Marlene. I respect her, and by extension, Skipper. So YOU are going to respect them as WELL! Otherwise, you're going to get LESS cuddle time with me than you are right NOW!!!!” Marlene exclaims: “YES!!!! In your FACE, you wannabe PIRATE!!!!” Zarbon huffs in annoyance and says: “I'm still FAR sexier of a pirate, than you will EVER be as an otter! Just remember that once I get RID of YOU from the competition! Marlene sarcastically says: “I am SO worried!”

(Confessional) Zarbon angrily growls: “How DARE Bulma make me stand down?! It's all because of that STUPID Po, and this STUPID eye-patch I have to wear! If I had PERFECT beauty, Bulma wouldn't be taking Marlene's side! But mark my words, when my face is all healed, either Skipper or Marlene will be the FIRST to go! I can GUARANTEE that!” / Bulma rolls her eyes and says: “I cannot LET Zarbon mess up my brand new alliance with Marlene! I worked TOO hard to convince Marlene that I am on HER side to let that happen! Besides, Zarbon's been acting WAY too independent lately! He NEEDS to be reminded that I am the one who CALLS all the shots! I am in charge of just how far he ends up going! And by the looks of things, I'd say Zarbon won't last much longer. I think I'll eliminate five OTHER contestants first, than I'll dump Zarbon on international television and PERMANENTLY break his heart, if he even HAS one, that is! I really don't KNOW with aliens!” / Skipper says: “I honestly don't know just HOW Zarbon has managed to last THIS long in the competition! And quite frankly, I don't care! I just want to see Zarbon take the Drop of Shame as soon as possible! He OWES me THAT much for making Marlene and Captain Retro kiss together! I will NEVER forgive him for THAT!” / Marlene scoffs and says: “Like I REALLY trust Bulma! She's a bigger LIAR than Treeflower was in season two! That doesn't mean I have to let BULMA suspect anything! Of course, I'm not sure if I can trust Skipper to be discreet with this information! So all I can do right now, is to go along with Bulma's strategies and make her THINK that I am on her side! And when the right opportunity presents itself, I'll blindside her! Than, I will be a hop, skip, and a jump away from winning up to $44.44 million, in cold, hard, cash!” (End Confessional) Chameleon says: “MAN!!!! Everybody seems to be getting uptight the closer we get to the Final Five!” Patrick asks: “Can you blame them? A $44.44 million payday doesn't come around EVERY day!” Wally says: “But it just seems to be getting SO intense!” Dog says: “I quite agree.” Rocko says: “We should all concentrate on sticking together. We can't let a game of this nature tear apart our friendships, we're too good for that!” Wally says: “I sure am glad you're here, you have a way of keeping everything in perspective.” Rocko says: “Naturally, I was born with a level head, and I've had years of practice in keeping things in perspective!”

Dog says: “Speaking of perspective, I wonder where Stimpy is? We should make sure he knows what we're thinking of, we could use his help in getting to the Final Five!” And upon hearing this, Zarbon silently growls in anger! (Confessional) Chameleon says: “I am honestly in complete shock by just how far I've gotten this season! I mean, all this time, and I haven't been targeted, not even once, despite the numerous opportunities for that to happen. Maybe this means I HAVE completely put my bad guy past behind me! I can move on and focus on the future! And the future I want, is a lifetime with Dudley Puppy! It's more than I have ever hoped for!” / Patrick says: “You know what I would do with a $44.44 million payday? I'd paint my rock to be all golden. I like to keep my goals simple.” / Wally says: “Rocko is definitely the glue that keeps all our friendships together. My respect for him and his knowledge knows no bounds! I think we can be friends even after this season ends.” / Dog says: “This seems like the part of the game where I should be getting nervous about my chances. And to be honest, I kind of am. I mean, Bulma SHOULD'VE targeted me by now, and she hasn't! Or is she planning to target me in this challenge? That seems like a move Bulma would take; wait until I don't expect it, then she targets me! And if I'm in danger, chances are, Stimpy is in danger to! I hope I can protect him, and he in turn, will be able to protect me!” / Zarbon scowls angrily and says: “I have HAD it with Dog and Stimpy being in this competition! Do you HEAR me BULMA?!!! They've lasted FAR too long as it is; it's time to END this non-sense once and for ALL!!!! I've got a can of black paint with Stimpy's NAME on it, and I think that Stimpy's luck will FINALLY end, once, and for ALL!” (End Confessional) Over the entrance to First Class, a can of black paint is precariously perched on the door frame, balanced by only the cracked door. Dog walks into first class, but doesn't see the can of paint. Dog asks: “Stimpy, where are you?” Off-screen, Stimpy shouts: “I'm right here, good bud--!!” But Stimpy NEVER gets to finish his thought, because when Stimpy opens the door, the black paint SPILLS onto Stimpy, covering him completely, making him a BLACK Cat!!!! Stimpy sputters and asks: “What kind of a prank is THIS?!” Suddenly, alarms blare in the plane. Over the intercom, Sniz's voice announces itself! Sniz says: “Attention, passengers. We seem to be experiencing some unexpected turbulence! It's ALMOST as if someone is starting to CAUSE a whole lot of bad luck to happen!” It then DAWNS on Stimpy that Sniz MIGHT be referring to HIM!

Stimpy says: “Dog, you KNOW me! You don't believe that black cats can cause bad luck to happen?!” Dog seriously says: “Of COURSE, I don't believe in that! It will take a LOT more than black paint to get ME to abandon you!” Stimpy sighs and says: “Thank you, I needed to hear that!” General Barracuda says: “Buckle up, back there! We're headed for a bumpy landing, in the jungles of Central America, in the country of El Salvador!” The plane roars, and in the cargo area in the back of the plane, Anti-Timmy is seen getting bumped and knocked around in ALL sorts of painful ways! Finally, the plane slows down and is resting peacefully. General Barracuda, in relief, sighs and says: “Another landing, perfectly executed!” (Confessional) General Barracuda says: “I take my job of piloting seriously! There will be no loss of life or accidents as long as I'm in charge of the plane!” (End Confessional) The contestants all file out of the plane, with Captain Retro looking very worried about something. Wally asks: “Captain Retro, is there something wrong?” Captain Retro says: “Something seems to be very WRONG with Stimpy's aura!” And Captain Retro gasps in shock when he SEES Stimpy! Captain Retro asks: “Stimpy, what HAPPENED to you?!” Stimpy, in black paint, says: “Apparently, someone thought it would be a funny idea for me to be covered in black paint!” Bulma seriously EYES Zarbon angrily and tensely says: “ZARBON, you aren't perhaps, RESPONSIBLE for completely COVERING Stimpy in black PAINT?! Are YOU?!!!”

Zarbon sputters and asks: “How could YOU, of ALL people, even ACCUSE me of that?! I am the GREATEST sexual being in the UNIVERSE!!!!” Bulma scoffs and says: “Not with an attitude like THAT, you're NOT! And you BETTER straighten up for this challenge! I am DANGEROUSLY close to REVEALING that 'UGLY' little secret of yours!” Zarbon growls and angrily says: “YOU wouldn't DARE!!!!” Bulma smirks and says: “Try me!” Zarbon growls in resentment, points one of his fingers at Bulma, and he says: “You win THIS round, Bulma! But you have NO proof about ANYTHING!” Bulma chuckles deviously and says: “You'd be SURPRISED by just how INGENIOUS I can be in obtaining proof! You would THINK that YOU would've figured THAT out by now!” (Confessional) Captain Retro says: “There is something very WRONG with my abilities! I think Anti-Timmy is STILL on the plane! It has become very DIFFICULT for me to read Auras, or to see potential futures! I am very POSITIVE that this is because of Anti-Timmy's influence! His negative energy is blocking my two key abilities! I'm not sure what's going to happen as long as HE is around, but it won't do anyone any good for Anti-Timmy to be sticking around! I hope he can be canceled; I mean, eliminated, from the plane, very soon! But that doesn't explain why Stimpy's aura suddenly seems to be so off-kilter. I don't believe that black cats cause bad luck, so it can't POSSIBLY be that, unless there was something WEIRD in that black paint, then that might do it. I just hope that Stimpy doesn't let this thing affect him negatively.” / Stimpy is still covered in black paint, and he says: “One time, Ren disguised the both of us as Dalmatians, so we could get a job as Fire Dogs, and we ended up saving the day! So this isn't the first time my fur color has been altered. But I don't know how others will perceive me as long as my fur is black! I know it's not THEIR fault, but black cats get such a bad RAP in cartoons and other forms of media, it's been that way for centuries! I need Dog's help more than ever now. If anyone can convince the others that nothing about me has changed, it's all Dog!” / Bulma rolls her eyes and says: “Obviously, it was all MY idea to have Stimpy covered up in black paint! HELLO! I just had to make Zarbon THINK it was all his idea! And ME, accusing Zarbon of doing it, gives ME an alibi, in the way of me, having absolutely NOTHING to do with it! I hold every SINGLE advantage in this competition! Nothing in this GAME can touch ME!” / Zarbon gasps in shock and says: “It's like BULMA doesn't CARE for me anymore! NOBODY stops caring for Zarbon! I was voted MOST Eligible Bachelor of the South Galaxy 27 times STRAIGHT! Mark my words, I will NOT be IGNORED!!!!” (End Confessional)

Sniz walks out and says: “Quite frankly, I don't KNOW who covered Stimpy with black paint, and quite frankly, I don't care. You all have a challenge facing all of you.” Bulma rolls her eyes, scoffs, and she says: “And what's the BIG deal THIS time, filing my fingernails? I can do that in my sleep!” Sniz smiles, and he says: “You won't be sarcastic for LONG! Today, you have to make it across a four mile section of jungle in El Salvador! This would be hard enough in the day-time, but we're holding this challenge in the night time, just to make it HARDER!” Dog says: “Good thing there's a FULL moon, tonight! That's not so bad!” Sniz says: “VERY perceptive! But it's not just ANY full moon! You've heard of the saying, 'Once In a Blue Moon?' Well, that 'ONCE' is TONIGHT! This night marks an unusual celestial event, where the Moon's color turns blue. And when it does, it unleashes a STRANGE energy that affects the wildlife living in the jungle. Normally nice animals turn vicious, normally vicious animals turn timid. You'll have to avoid the transformed animals and make it to the finish line. The first two contestants to FINISH this challenge will get the V.I.P. Lounge Treatment. But you better move fast, because tonight is not just a DOUBLE Elimination, it's an AUTOMATIC double elimination! That means the last two contestants to finish the challenge will be automatically eliminated! No elimination ceremony for the losers!”

(Confessional) Dog says: “Oh, MAN! Bad enough it's a DOUBLE Elimination, but it's automatic as WELL! I'm not sure that even MY skills will be enough to help Stimpy out of THIS scrape! At this point, the best I can hope for is making Zarbon and Bulma LOOK bad, so even if they don't get eliminated in THIS challenge, they can be put into WORSE shape for the next challenge! It's the least I can do to show MY true friendship to Stimpy, by defending his honor!” / Bulma gets a DELIGHTED look as she schemes, and she says: “An automatic DOUBLE elimination? This could work out even BETTER than I had planned. It would be pleasant enough to get rid of Stimpy, but to make it a two for one? That will work out EVEN better! I can knock out TWO birds with ONE stone, and also get rid of DOG in the process! That way, there will be NO former champions left in this competition who can challenge me!” (End Confessional) Captain Retro turns to Wally, and Captain Retro says: “Wally, you need to stick with me for this challenge! You're the best ally that I have right now and I can't afford to lose you!” Wally says: “I'm glad that you think of me so highly! I feel very thankful to you.” Captain Retro says: “Save your thanks, ONLY for if and/or when we win this challenge.” Wally says: “I've got you! Admiral Wally, his Smartness, will not let you down!” (Confessional) Wally says: “I've been taking the downtime in-between challenges to brush up on my books. When I was a Rocket Monkey, I would NEVER have time to read and improve my knowledge. But I've become a very accomplished reader! I can read an estimated 100 pages an hour, plus, I retain a lot of the information that I read. Therefore, calling myself 'His Smartness,' isn't just a boast, it's an actual claim to my fame!” / Captain Retro says: “I HAD to take Wally! If I didn't, I don't think anyone else WOULD have! Besides, protecting Wally PROVES that I am a good friend to him. Not to mention, it's just good karma. And I LOVE me some good karma!” (End Confessional) Reggie turns to Rocko, and she says: “Want to double-team up with me again?” Rocko says: “I wouldn't do it with anyone else!” Dudley says: “Chameleon, we'll have a better chance of winning if we do it together!” Chameleon says: “I couldn't agree, more!” Stimpy says: “Dog, you don't have to risk yourself just to help me out.” Dog says: “That's not even a THOUGHT in my mind! I'm sticking with you to the very end!” Stimpy exclaims: “WOW! Only a TRUE friend would do that for ME!” (Confessional)

Stimpy is still coated in black paint, and Stimpy says: “If there's one thing I never do, is that I NEVER risk the safety of anyone else, just to save myself. But if Dog is willing to help me, I'm very glad to have his help. It just goes to show that chivalry ISN'T dead in the world!” / Dog says: “When I became my own canine, I thought it would be all fun and games, but it left me with a hole in my heart. It was only then I realized that separating myself from Cat, wasn't the answer to my problems. Having friends is what gave my life meaning again. I won't make the same mistake TWICE; I won't abandon Stimpy the way I abandoned Cat! Not even to save my own game! I believe that my friendship with Stimpy is FAR more valuable than any $44.44 million payday ever could be!” (End Confessional) Marlene turns to Skipper and she romantically says: “Looks like we FINALLY have a chance to pair up together and DOMINATE this challenge!” Skipper smiles and says: “I've been looking FORWARD to this opportunity ALL season!” (Confessional) Marlene says: “I honestly don't even think of Captain Retro as a factor in my life anymore. I've closed THAT chapter of my life! I'm focused on writing MY future together with Skipper! I can ALWAYS count on HIM to be straight up with ME!” / Skipper says: “One important thing I've learned this season, is that being honest and straight forward, is the key to just about everything. Not just in life, but probably winning a $44.44 million grand prize as well! If either Marlene or I can win all that cash, I'll feel as if this season has been a successful endeavor for me! I feel VERY confidant!” (End Confessional)

Bulma turns to Zarbon, and she SERIOUSLY says: “Zarbon, YOU are pairing up with ME tonight!” Zarbon scoffs and says: “Whatever FOR?! You'll just get all yelly and SCREAMY again like you ALWAYS do, and accuse me of something HORRID like you ALWAYS do!” Bulma angrily screams: “I am NOT ALWAYS YELLY AND SCREAMY!!!!” Zarbon rolls his eyes and says: “You're SCREAMING right NOW!!!!” Bulma groans and says: “OH, why wasn't I BORN with a MUTE button?! Seriously, where IS the OFF switch for my MOUTH?!” Zarbon says: “Look, I don't want to get eliminated anymore than you do; and we DO both NEED each other, for better or for worse!” Bulma groans and says: “Fine! I promise NOT to accuse you of ANYTHING tonight as long as you PROMISE not to pull any more STUNTS on any of the other contestants tonight!” Zarbon pulls Bulma up close to him, and Zarbon romantically says: “Bulma, I promise on my DEAD Grandmother that I won't pull ANY more stunts on ANY other contestants tonight!” Bulma romantically says: “That's ALL I needed to hear!” And Bulma romantically kisses Zarbon, but doesn't REALIZE that Zarbon has his FINGERS crossed behind his back! (Confessional) Zarbon chuckles deviously and says: “Of COURSE I crossed my fingers behind my back! Like I would REALLY promise not to hurt ANYONE! That's not my way! I carve my OWN path, and NOBODY is going to stand in the way of my greatness! Eternal glory and BEAUTY will be mine, and EVERYONE, will forever KNOW of the perfection that is me, the one known as ZARBON!” / Bulma seriously says: “Zarbon better NOT even THINK about trying to BREAK his promise to ME tonight, or else ZARBON will find himself moved up to being the contestant I WILL eliminate, AFTER Stimpy and Dog are eliminated! Of course, that's not an IDEAL move that I want to make. After all, who would I have left who could be even WORSE than me, and would do whatever I wanted, no questions asked? Of course, I don't have to let Zarbon KNOW that I'm having these self-doubts, he can take me SERIOUSLY for all I care! Just so long as I HOLD the upper hand in this alliance! That is ALL that matters to me!” (End Confessional)

Suzie then REALIZES that she has only ONE possible partner left! Suzie groans and she says: “You have GOT to be KIDDING me!!!!” Patrick asks: “What are you talking about?” Suzie seriously says: “Do you know what is WRONG with THIS picture?!” Patrick answers: “No; what is wrong?” Suzie, frustrated, yells: “I'm stuck with YOU again!!!! That, is what is WRONG!” Patrick asks: “Why is it wrong?” Suzie groans, and seriously says: “If you HAVE to ask, you will NEVER know!” Patrick says: “Give me enough time, and I MIGHT know!” Suzie rolls her eyes and she seriously says: “I HIGHLY doubt THAT!” (Confessional) Suzie says: “SERIOUSLY!!!! How come it always ends up being ME who has to wind up getting STUCK with Jughead?! Do I LOOK like Betty or Veronica?! I did NOT sign up for this! Well, there IS only one reason I'd even GIVE Patrick the time of day, the chance of a $44.44 million grand prize! I am NOT going to pass that up!” / Patrick seriously asks: “Honestly, what does Suzie have against me? Sure, I might not have had a STELLAR performance this season. And sure, many of my fellow team-mates have been taken out of the equation, but it's REALLY not my fault! I've just been playing the best I can, as hard as I can. I mean, I've already OUTLASTED 44 other contestants this season! If that doesn't count as someone who NEEDS to be taken seriously, I don't know WHAT does!” (End Confessional) Sniz says: “All right! You've all picked a partner! Now, we just need to wait for the effect to take place.” Stimpy nervously says: “Question, is this blue moon effect something that works on Nicktoon characters who are already ANIMALS?!” Sniz SERIOUSLY thinks about it and says: “Actually, I have no Earthly idea! I suppose you will find out, when the effect starts, right NOW!!!!” And sure enough, a strange, lunar vibration radiates off of the blue moon, and changes all the animals of the jungle!

Carnivore animals suddenly get shy and scared, why herbivore animals suddenly become fierce and vicious! Stimpy says: “Hold me Dog, just keep tight and don't open your eyes!” And they hug each other, until the lunar vibration completely stops. Captain Retro shakes his head, and he asks: “Wally, do YOU feel any different?!” Wally says: “Completely unchanged, sir. I suppose all those years of civilized living have made me immune to the effects of the Blue Moon.” Captain Retro says: “And I come from another dimension; I guess that is why the Blue Moon had no effect on me, either.” Dog asks: “Stimpy, are you all right?” Stimpy sighs in relief and says: “Yes, I think so.” Chameleon asks: “Dudley, were YOU affected by the blue moon?!” But Dudley vibrates up and down and shouts: “Hi-gee-gee!!!!” Dudley than jumps around, tears off his shirt, and shouts: “FREEDOM!!!!” And Dudley runs away! Chameleon gasps and says: “Oh man, I've got to go AFTER him!” (Confessional) Chameleon says: “Here I was, worried that the blue moon was going to turn ME evil again; and instead, it turns DUDLEY into some type of party-loving dog nudist! It looks like its MY turn to protect Dudley from himself, because if I don't, who will?” / Wally says: “Being in space, I constantly run across blue moons all the time. As such, Gus and I couldn't afford to be affected by them. After taking the years of necessary training, we both trained our bodies to resist the effects of a blue moon. Although I think I'm better at it than my brother Gus is.” / Stimpy, still covered in black paint, says: “At least I KNOW that I'm not bad luck. If I was, the blue moon should have affected me, but it didn't! I guess that means that everything will turn out okay, even if Dog and I get eliminated.” (End Confessional) Reggie asks: “Rocko, are YOU affected?!” Rocko shakes his head, and he says: “No way! I don't HAVE a nasty nature inside of me! Nothing can shake ME from you!” Skipper nervously asks: “Marlene, were you affected by the blue moon?” Marlene turns around, and reveals her WILD, Feral form from “Otter Gone Wild!” Skipper gasps: “Oh, NO!!!!” And Marlene runs after Dudley! Skipper shouts: “Whatever you're thinking, don't DO it! You could get KICKED out of the competition!”

(Confessional) Rocko says: “I attribute my ability to remain unaffected by the blue moon to be a result of good karma. That's why I never leave home without it. Good karma is a REAL life saver!” / Skipper moans, and he says: “Oh, man! If Marlene gets eliminated BECAUSE of the blue moon effect, I'll NEVER forgive myself! I've GOT to save her!” / Captain Retro says: “It seems like after all this time, Skipper has FINALLY learned how to care about the safety of someone else, above his own. I thought Skipper was FAR too stubborn to change, but it seems that his Aura has changed! He genuinely DOES care about Marlene! Maybe I never NEEDED to make an alliance with Marlene to keep her safe, after all!” (End Confessional) Suzie groans, and she says: “Let me GUESS, Patrick, you're completely SAVAGE and unpredictable, now!” Patrick suddenly speaks in a smart and sophisticated voice and says: “Quite the opposite, actually.” Suzie's eyes get big and she says: “Do you MEAN to tell me that...?!” Patrick nods his head, and sadly says: “Yep! The Brain Coral, SMART Patrick is completely in charge thanks to the blue moon!” (Confessional) Suzie says: “You would THINK that I would be HAPPY with Smart Patrick, but I'm actually not! I guess I don't WANT stability, what I really want is CONSISTENCY!” / Patrick sighs and says: “The real reason that I haven't utilized my brain coral more this season, is that I'm always worried that I will lose control of myself, and I'll become an even BIGGER nuisance than Bulma, and I REALLY, don't want to have that happen! But how do I stop myself?! You would THINK that with my brain coral, that I would know HOW!” (End Confessional) Zarbon chuckles deviously and says: “Glad that WE'RE not animals like THEM, and we can EASILY take advantage of this situation, RIGHT, Bulma?!” But Bulma looks at Zarbon with BIG, romantic puppy eyes, causing Zarbon to get REALLY unnerved!

Bulma romantically says: “Oh, Zarbon, you are ABSOLUTELY right! You are such a BIG, smart, GENIUS in my life!!!!” (Confessional) Zarbon sputters and yells: “What's going ON?! Has Bulma gone COMPLETELY loopy?! How can SHE even be affected by the effects of the blue moon?!” (End Confessional) Zarbon seriously asks: “Why has BULMA been affected by the effects of the blue moon?!” Sniz shrugs and says: “I have no Earthly idea, Zarbon. Maybe Bulma is part wolf!” Reggie chuckles and she says: “That WOULD explain a lot!” Sniz says: “Chameleon, Skipper, you two NEED to rescue your BETTER halves before they hurt themselves or someone else. You both MUST cross together at the Finish Line; otherwise, it's not going to count. Suzie and Zarbon, make sure that YOUR partners don't do anything unusual that might hinder your progress.” Bulma romantically says: “I just LOVE your 12 pack ABS, Zarbon!” Zarbon seriously says: “I don't think that's going to be a problem with ME, sir!” Patrick says: “And I'm currently in full brain coral mode, so I think that I can handle myself.” Sniz says: “In any case, you better get moving before the NOW vicious animals get you! I want this challenge to be done in two hours, and edited down to just one hour. And before I forget, I want to get THIS challenge started off on the RIGHT note!” (Beep! Beep! Ba-Beep! Beep! Beep!) Patrick rolls his eyes, and he seriously says: “FIGURES you would give us a song right NOW!” Sniz eyes Patrick, and says: “Ignoring the fact that you can predict me so WELL in this form, I actually do! And the tune I have in mind, is an appropriate one, a 1980's hit song originally by the Rolling Stones!” Captain Retro says: “Well, those of us who are STILL in the right mind to sing, will sing!” Sniz says: “Than on your mark, get set... (blows whistle); and go!!!!” /

Genre: The Rolling Stones. Sub-Genre: New Wave. Song: “Undercover of the Night.” Sung by: Everyone except Marlene and Dudley. / (Instrumental open) Captain Retro: “Hear the screams of Center 42, loud enough to bust your brains out!” Zarbon: “The opposition's tongue is cut in two, keep off the street cause you're in danger!” Rocko: “One hundred thousand jaguars, lost in the jungles in Central America!” Bulma, romantically: “Cuddle up baby, cuddle up tight, cuddle up baby!” Zarbon, seriously: “Keep it all out of sight!” Reggie: “Undercover!” Chameleon: “Keep it all out of sight!” Rocko: “Undercover of the night!” (Instrumental break) Skipper: “The fun police are out there on the streets, make sure the pass laws are not broken!” Suzie: “The rage militia has got itchy fingers, all the way from New York back to El Salvador!” Rocko: “Cuddle up baby!” Reggie: “Keep it all out of sight!” Dog: “Cuddle up baby!” Stimpy: “Sleep with all out of sight!” Bulma, romantically: “Cuddle up baby!” Zarbon, seriously: “Keep it all out of sight!” Captain Reto: “Undercover! Undercover! Undercover!” Wally: “Keep it all out of sight!” Cast: “Undercover of the night!” (Instrumental break) Wally: “Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!” Patrick seriously: “All the young monkeys are being rounded up, and sent to camps back in the jungle!” Suzie seriously: “And people whisper, people double-talk!” Stimpy: “And once proud felines act so humble!” Bulma, romantically: “All the young girls, they have got the blues!” Zarbon, seriously: “We're heading on BACK to Center 42!” (Sees vicious sloths, and they keep running forward!) Captain Retro: “Keep it undercover! Keep it all out of sight! Keep it undercover! Keep it all out of sight! Undercover! Keep it all out of sight! Undercover! Keep it all out of sight! Undercover of the night!” (Instrumental break) Wally: “Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!”

Stimpy: “Down in the bars, the girls are painted blue!” Dog: “Done up in lace, done up in rubber!” Skipper: “The guy's are jerky, little, G.I. Joe's, on R&R from Cuba and Russia!” Bulma, scared: “The smell of sex, the smell of suicide! All these things, I can't keep inside!” Chameleon: “Undercover!” Zarbon, seriously: “Keep it all out of sight!” Reggie: “Undercover of the night!” Suzie: “Undercover of the night!” Stimpy: “Undercover of the night!” Captain Retro: “Undercover! Undercover!” Captain Retro and cast: “Undercover of the Night!” (Instrumental finish, and the epic song ends). / Sniz says: “And our contestants are off across the jungle! Who will finish first is anyone's guess! Personally, my money is on the groups that DON'T have someone affected by the effects of the Blue Moon! Find out for sure when we return, after some commercial breaks, on Total Cartoon Global Cruise!” (Commercial Break) / I'll break here and stop for now. Enough said, for now!

[4EverGreen]

I've got a lot to write and time is of the essence, so let's get right back to the second and final part of my latest "Total Cartoon Global Cruise" episode, "Back In Black Cat!" / After the commercials finish airing, the action focuses on Chameleon, who's busy looking for the altered Dudley, who has been affected by the effects of a rare Blue Moon! Chameleon shouts: "Dudley, where are you buddy?! I know you like a good joke, but this isn't the time or place FOR it!" Dog suddenly shouts: "Need any help?!" And Dog and a STILL black-coated Stimpy come into view. Chameleon says: "There IS strength in numbers, but you don't need to help me. After all, you're risking your own game to DO this!" Stimpy says: "It's a calculated risk. Besides, Zarbon already wants US gone, and I am NOT going to let him target YOU without going through ME first!" Chameleon asks: "But why?" Stimpy says: "Because YOU have already come TOO far and gone through TOO much for Zarbon to target you! You do NOT deserve that! If WE can protect you from his wicked games, that will be reward enough for us. I do NOT allow despicable aliens from other galaxies to target MY friends!" Chameleon gasps in shock and asks: "You think of ME as your friend?!" Dog says: "We both do! We thought after all this time, you would have already realized that. But just know that from now on, you never have to worry about being alone again. We care for you, in a way that we'll NEVER care for Zarbon! Zarbon MAY have gorgeous looks, but he does NOT have your good soul!" (Confessional)

Chameleon sheds a tear and says: "They said I have a good soul; that's the nicest thing that anybody BESIDES Dudley has ever said about me! And I'm considered better than Zarbon! Not in terms of beauty, but in terms of goodness! I have to save Dudley now! If for no other reason than to prove that my new friends' opinions of me are actually well warranted!" / Stimpy, in black-coated paint, says: "Whenever I think of evil, my mind always goes back to that moment when Master Coelaceanth did the ultimate, and TRIED to manipulate me into becoming evil by kidnapping Lil! If it wasn't for my inherently good nature, I don't know how I would've fared. Zarbon may not have an elaborate plan like Master Coelaceanth did, but with Bulma by his side, he doesn't really need to. The advantage we have this time, is that the brains and brawn are separated from each other. If we can remove the brawn, the brains will have no strength to fight against the rest of us. Bulma will be left with nothing, and the other contestants will have a fair chance of winning. But that doesn't mean that Zarbon has to suffer unfairly. I STILL want to tell him about Bulma's betrayal! I may be covered in black paint, but I do have Dog and Chameleon by my side! I just KNOW that they will back me up!" / Dog says: "Back in Nearburg, I was friends with a lizard named Mr. Sunshine. He was kind of odd, but he was okay. I find it a crying shame how some guys and girls are overlooked, PURELY on the basis of how they look! Looks shouldn't account for everything. Cat and I are living PROOF of that! I may be one of the FEW contestants this season who KNOWS what Chameleon has gone through, so I am very empathetic to his struggle! That's why I want to help him!" (End Confessional) Stimpy says: "With the three of us together, we'll track down Dudley in no time!" Than suddenly, armadillos come rolling up in front of them! Chameleon nervously asks: "Remind me, are armadillos normally vicious, or are they normally nice?!" The armadillos suddenly BARE sharp FANGS and claws at them, and Dog nervously answers: "Normally nice! They are DEFINITELY normally nice!" And the trio run away from the rolling armadillos as fast as they can! /

The action shifts to Captain Retro and Wally are walking through the jungle as cautiously as they can, taking care to avoid any affected animals and potential pitfalls. Wally says: "You would think that with the jungle being my native habitat, I would feel more comfortable in this situation." Captain Retro says: "It's only natural to feel nervous. These aren't normal conditions, even though we're HARDLY in a situation that can be considered 'normal'." Wally nods his head and says: "True. Still, do you think you can cook something up to help light our path? It's tough to see through all these trees. But I guess that's why they say, 'You can't see the forest through the trees'." Captain Retro says: "I can give it a shot! Floating Kamehameha!" And Captain Retro produces a floating ball of energy, that begins to glide through the air! Captain Retro chuckles and says: "Pretty handy trick, don't you think?! And it's good for self-defense, to!" Wally says: "That is pretty nifty. But there's something that's bugging me; why aren't we helping Skipper track down Marlene? I thought you cared for her!" Captain Retro says: "I DID, until she publicly DISSED me on international TELEVISION! I mean, it's kind of a little HARD not to take that sort of thing PERSONALLY! If she had just been honest with me from the beginning, she wouldn't even BE in this predicament! Her bond with me probably could have protected her. But as it is, her fate is now out of my hands. If she WANTS to get to the Final Three now, she will have to do it all on her own. I am no longer interested in JUST being some sort of Intergalactic Cheat Sheet for anybody with a mind set like Marlene's!" Wally says: "I'm not saying that what Marlene did was right, but she has just as much of a stake in this as we do! Bulma has been using HER to, and manipulating Marlene to some bad ends! Surely you aren't just going to stand by and LET Bulma manipulate Marlene?" Captain Retro sighs and says: "I can still read Marlene's aura, and no, she would NOT listen to me, no matter what I say. She's beyond my ability to reach, now. If anyone is going to save her, it will have to be Skipper. He's the only one left who has the ability to communicate with Marlene!" Wally asks: "Why is that?" Captain Retro says: "It all boils down to TRUE love! If Skipper and Marlene truly DO love each other, than everything will work out all right in the end." Wally says: "WOW! Captain Retro, that is TRULY deep!" (Confessional)

Wally says: "Marlene's not a perfect woman, and I'm by no means a perfect guy. Marlene made a mistake, I don't hold THAT against her, and I STILL consider her as my friend. I think the only reason Captain Retro is taking it personally, is because he genuinely LOVED Marlene, and it really hurt him when he found out that Marlene didn't reciprocate the same emotions. It's not easy to recover from a broken heart. I guess breaking up IS really hard to do! I'm still upset by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie divorcing!" / Captain Retro sighs and says: "I know I have to take SOME of the blame for it not working out with Marlene. If I had just READ her aura from the beginning, I would have KNOWN what she was truly after! But I was SO desperate for love, I purposely blinded myself to the truth! Maybe that's why Bulma and Zarbon eluded my gaze for so long; I wasn't detecting the truth, purely because I wasn't allowing myself to see it. Marlene hurt my feelings when she rejected me; mainly, my own ego was hurt. It's not easy for me to admit that I HAVE an ego, but I guess that just means that I'm just as imperfect as everyone else. I don't want to be bitter about Marlene, and I want to move on from her. I just don't know when that's going to happen. But, I am willing to admit one thing I have learned from all this, that I'm happy to realize. 'It's Better to Have Lost In Love, Than Never to Have Loved At All.' I just hope that Zarbon can realize that before it's too late!" (End Confessional)

Suddenly, out of nowhere, Anti-TIMMY jumps out in front of the two of them! Captain Retro yells: "You WERE still on the plane! I knew it! Even though I couldn't sense your aura, I KNEW you were still around! What do you possibly have to GAIN from all of this?!" Anti-Timmy scowls, and bitterly says: "YOU know what I want from this; I want the PRECIOUS!!!!" Wally shakes his head and says: "If you're talking about getting your dignity and self-respect back, I'm sorry, but I simply don't see that happening. Besides, Butch Hartman has a NEW cartoon series in the works; so you're no LONGER on his list of top priorities!" Anti-Timmy exclaims: "I had EVERYTHING!!!! She STOLE it from US!!!" Captain Retro asks: "SHE?! Who is SHE?!" Anti-Timmy gasps and says: "You don't KNOW?! How could you not know?! Bulma's the one! She answers to the MAN Behind the Curtain!" Wally asks: "Curtain?! What Curtain?" Captain Retro says: "There's something BEYOND Bulma?!" Anti-Timmy says: "Bulma has her OWN demons, that she's DESPERATELY trying to eliminate, and she will go to ANY lengths to get RID of them! She's working with the Man BEHIND the CURTAIN; the ONLY MAN who is even SMARTER than BULMA!!!!" Wally asks: "Who would THAT be?!" Captain Retro suddenly realizes and he says: "Dr. GERO!!!!" Wally asks: "The Man behind the Red Ribbon Army?!" Captain Retro says: "It all makes sense! There's simply no way that Bulma would act THIS villainous unless there was a good reason for her to do this! The trouble is, I don't sense Dr. Gero's aura, anywhere! He must be working from really far away to keep himself hidden from me! But, why are you HELPING us?!" Anti-Timmy says: "I WANT the PRECIOUS back! I MUST possess it!" Captain Retro shakes his head and firmly says: "Even if you HAD your PRECIOUS back, it wouldn't HELP you! I'm afraid you are too far GONE for any 'PRECIOUS' to help you NOW! You're better off getting cancelled; I mean, eliminated, like you were SUPPOSED to be way back in episode TWO!!!!" Anti-Timmy scowls and says: "If you WON'T help me, than YOU must SUFFER as WELL!!!!" Captain Retro defiantly says: "I cannot allow that! Kamehameha!!!!" And Captain Retro fires his beam of energy at Anti-Timmy, separating his LEFT hand from the rest of his body! Wally says: "And unless you leave NOW, Captain Retro is going to take out the REST of you, piece by piece!" Anti-Timmy scoffs and says: "Oh, PLEASE!!!! Haven't you ever WONDERED how a NO-TALENT cartoon character like ME has managed to survive sixteen YEARS of CONSTANT cancellations?!" And suddenly, Anti-Timmy's LEFT hand turns into METAL liquid, flows BACK to Anti-Timmy, and reforms into a PERFECTLY formed left hand! Captain Retro exclaims: "I was RIGHT!!!! Terminator 2 Regeneration! Pay up!!!!" Wally gives Captain Retro $20 and Wally says: "Oh, MAN!!!!" And Cosmo suddenly poof appears with Wanda, as Wanda looks REALLY irritated! Cosmo exclaims: "And YOU said giving Timmy Turner Terminator 2 regeneration abilities was a DUMB wish!" Wanda shrieks: "It still IS a DUMB wish!" Wally says: "So blasting him isn't going to work! Got a Plan B?" Captain Retro nervously says: "Just one; RETREAT!!!!" And Captain Retro grabs Wally by his right arm, and Wally says: "Can't you TAKE that loser?!" Captain Retro says: "Probably, but it's better to be SAFE than sorry!" And the two of them run away! (Confessional)

Captain Retro says: "The pieces are FINALLY starting to fall into place. All of the mysteries surrounding this season are FINALLY starting to unfold! I'm still not sure what the END product will look like, but I have a general idea. I have to give Dr. Gero credit where credit is due; it's not just anybody who can keep himself hidden from me, so Dr. Gero definitely did his homework. Bulma still must be taken out of the game, but not before I figure out how Dr. Gero plays into Bulma's game plan. Once I do, I can negate Dr. Gero's plans for good! I just have to win challenges until I can figure it out! No EASY task, but nothing good OR fun ever IS!" / Wally says: "Anti-Timmy REEKS of desperation! And a desperate villain is NEVER one you want to tangle with! There's no telling WHAT kind of damage they can cause. I never thought about the possibility that someone MORE villainous than Bulma was behind all this; but it definitely gives me a better chance to rise up to my true potential, and become a hero for my fellow Nicktoons! Admiral Wally, his Smartness, will see to it, that Dr. Gero's nefarious plans go down in flames!" (End Confessional)

The action shifts to Skipper, who is DESPERATELY looking for Marlene! Skipper cries out: "Marlene? MARLENE?! Please answer me, Marlene! If there was ever a time to NOT be wild and savage, it's NOW!" Patrick suddenly grabs Skipper and says: "I don't know why you're trying to call for her. She's currently in no state of mind to answer you." Skipper asks: "Why are you here?" Suzie suddenly appears and says: "Because MARLENE is one of the few allies I have LEFT in this game that I can truly RELY on! As long as she's here, my chances of getting to the Final Five go up, at LEAST 300%! Don't ask me how I came up with that figure!" Patrick says: "The trouble is, you're not THINKING like Marlene is right now, that's why you're having such trouble finding her!" Skipper says: "NO!!!!" Than he REALIZES what Patrick has said, and Skipper says: "I mean, YES!!!! How did you figure THAT out SO quickly?!" Patrick sighs and says: "Well, thanks to the effects of the Blue Moon and the Brain Coral, I HAVE been thinking quite logically. The reason WHY Plankton is never able to obtain the Krabby Patty formula, is because THAT would end Spongebob Squarepants. The reason why they don't build planes out of the same material as the little black box, is that the plane would be too heavy to fly. And obviously, the chicken came before the egg." Patrick stops, and then says: "She's where the Wild Things are!" And Chameleon points to a menagerie of "Chalkzone" drawings, that look SUSPICIOUSLY a LOT like illustrations from "Where the Wild Things Are!" And sure enough, Dudley is there partying, and Marlene is eating a hunk of raw fish! Skipper says: "THERE you are, Marlene! I was SO worried about you!" But Marlene is STILL wild, and she TACKLES Skipper to the ground! Skipper nervously says: "Marlene! You've GOT to remember me! Skipper, your husband, your long-time crush, the love of your life! PLEASE remember!!!!" Than suddenly, a BOOMERANG hits Marlene, and returns to Rocko! Rocko says: "There will be NO blood shed on MY watch!" Reggie says: "You tell them, Rocko! I'm so GLAD you never go ANYWHERE without a boomerang!" Marlene suddenly growls again, only for CHAMELEON to hold her back with a THICK branch! Chameleon grunts with effort and says: "I've got HER!!!!" And everyone else looks puzzled! Chameleon asks: "What are you waiting FOR?! Get Dudley OUT of here while I can STILL control Marlene!" Dog asks: "But what about YOU?!" Chameleon asks: "You know that feeling you get when you realize that you actually CARE if someone you KNOW lives or dies? I didn't, until Dudley opened his heart to me. My safety is NOTHING compared to his! I HAVE to protect him! I owe him for THAT much!" Zarbon chuckles evilly and says: "It doesn't matter WHAT you owe him, it won't MATTER in the LONG run!" Stimpy, still coated in black paint, says: "The deadly duo themselves. It figures you'd run into us!" Bulma looks nervous with her big puppy eyes as she says: "Zarbon, the wild otter is SCARING me!" Zarbon says: "My looks may be shattered, and Bulma may be compromised, but that doesn't MATTER! All I know is that I FINALLY have an opportunity to take you ALL out!" Stimpy defiantly says: "Zarbon; haven't you figured it OUT by now?! Bulma doesn't really LOVE you! She's just USING you! She's only PRETENDING to be attracted to you so that she can get CLOSER to the Final Three!" Zarbon angrily says: "LIAR!!!! Don't you DARE lie to me, you BLACK CAT!!!!" Dog disgustedly says: "How DARE you?! You COVER Stimpy up in BLACK paint, than you accuse him of LYING?! How DO you sleep at night?!" Zarbon chuckles and says: "Beautifully, DUH!!!!" Rocko says: "You HAVE to trust us, why Bulma is STILL affected by the Blue Moon! Even IF you do EVERYTHING that Bulma WANTS you to, she will NEVER give you what you truly want! And when you don't expect it, she's GOING to BETRAY you! You need to STOP this while you still have a CHANCE!!!!" Zarbon defiantly says: "ENOUGH of your LIES!!!! Now get a taste of DEATH!!!!" But Zarbon never gets a CHANCE to attack, because Anti-Timmy TACKLES Zarbon to the ground! Zarbon yells: "YOU!!!!" Anti-Timmy asks: "WHERE is my PRECIOUS?!!!" Zarbon defiantly says: "I'll NEVER give you the PRECIOUS!!!! I NEED it! I MUST become the most BEAUTIFUL being in the universe! Eternal beauty MUST be mine! It's MY destiny!" Anti-Timmy says: "Than you can say FAREWELL to your ONE good EYE!!!!" But Anti-Timmy gets knocked OUT by a well-timed boomerang throw from Rocko! Rocko asks: "Do you believe us, NOW?!" Zarbon asks: "Because you SAVED my beauty? It's not enough! You INSULTED Bulma!" Stimpy shakes his head and says: "You're in dangerous territory, Zarbon! And if you won't listen to our pleas, MAYBE you will listen to a song! FRIENDS, help me out!!!!" /

Genre: Hard Rock. Sub-genre: Janet Jackson. Song: "Black Cat!" Sung by: Stimpy, Dog, Chameleon, Rocko, Reggie, Suzie, Patrick, Skipper, Bulma and Zarbon. / (Drum beat starts) Stimpy: "ONE! TWO! ONE, two, three, FOUR!!!!" (Heavy Metal Guitar plays) Bulma, romantically: "All the lonely nights I spend alone, never around to love me; you're always gone; cause you're hanging out breaking the rules! Oh, the man has come looking for you!" Suzie: "You're a rebel now! Don't give a damn! Always carrying on with the gang!" Reggie: "I'm trying to tell ya boy, it's a mistake!" Rocko: "You won't realize until it's too late!" Chameleon: "Don't understand why you insist on ways of living such a dangerous life!" Zarbon, defiantly: "Time after time, you stay away, and I just know that you're just telling me lies!" Stimpy: "Black cat, nine lives, short days, long nights, living on the edge, not afraid to die! Heart beat, real strong!" Zarbon: "But not for long! Better watch your step, or you're gonna die!" Suzie: "You're so together boy, but just at a glance, you'll do anything if given the chance!" Patrick: "Scheming, planning lies to get what you need!" Skipper: "So full of promises that you never keep!" Dog: "Don't you tell yourself that it's okay!" Rocko: "Sick and tired of all of your games!" Bulma, romantically: "And you want me to stay!" Reggie: "Better change! Makes no sense to me, your crazy ways!" Chameleon: "Don't understand why you insist on ways of living such a dangerous life!" Zarbon, defiantly: "Time after time, you stay away, and I just know that you're just telling me lies!" (Short guitar riff) Suzie: "Not afraid to die; GUITAR!!!!" (Rocking guitar solo) Stimpy: "Black cat! Black cat, I don't understand, why you always insist, on ways of living such a dangerous life." Chameleon: "Don't understand why you insist on ways of living such a dangerous life!" Zarbon, defiantly: "Time after time, you stay away, and I just know that you're just telling me lies!" Stimpy: "SO, Black cat, nine lives, short days, long nights, living on the edge, not afraid to die! Heart beat, real strong!" Zarbon: "But not for long! Better watch your step, or you're gonna die!" Everyone except Bulma and Zarbon: "Black cat, nine lives, short days, long nights, living on the edge, not afraid to die! Heart beat, real strong!" Zarbon: "But not for long! Better watch your step, or you're gonna die!" (Guitar riff and the song ends!) / The communicators suddenly come on and Sniz's voice comes over them. Sniz says: "Attention, contestants! While the rest of you were singing, an important development happened!" The action shifts to Sniz, as he's standing with Captain Retro and Wally! Sniz announces: "Captain Retro and Wally WON the challenge! The blue moon effect is OVER!!!!" And sure enough, the moon loses its blue color, and the effects of the blue moon reverses, putting all those affected BACK the way they were! Bulma shakes her head and disgustedly says: "Why are we just STANDING here when we SHOULD have WON?!!!" Zarbon says: "It's not MY fault, Bulma, you were AFFECTED!!!!" Bulma rolls her eyes and says: "Obviously, I REALIZE that NOW!!!!" (Confessional)

Bulma chuckles deviously and says: "I was NEVER ACTUALLY affected by the effects of the Blue Moon; I just needed to make SURE that Zarbon wouldn't TARGET anybody even AFTER he promised ME! Than, it OCCURRED to me; he wouldn't have TIME to target anyone IF he were WORRIED about ME, so I decided to shake things up a little by PRETENDING to go all love crazed 'because' of the Blue Moon! It wasn't easy to just STAND there and PRETEND that I didn't HEAR all those contestants speak the 'TRUTH' about me! Thankfully, Zarbon didn't believe them, just like I KNEW he wouldn't!" (End Confessional) Sniz announces: "If you want to NOT get eliminated, you better get here FAST!!!!" Bulma shakes her head and says: "Let's DITCH these losers! You can take care of them ANOTHER day!" Zarbon says: "Agreed. We're FINISHED here!" Dudley shakes his head and asks: "What happened to my shirt?" Chameleon says: "I can't explain now. Just know, that I saved you!" Dudley smiles says: "I ALWAYS knew you were good inside!" (Confessional) Chameleon says: "Having saved Dudley's life, I feel as though I have finally atoned for all the bad things I did as a villain. I know now that when this season is over, people will finally see me as a good guy. And not only that, but a good guy with friends. It feels so GOOD to be able to SAY that!" / Dudley, still NAKED, says: "I have been VINDICATED!!!! It took the BETTER part of this season, but I HAVE been vindicated! When I see Kitty again, I can finally say, 'I told you so'!" (End Confessional) Marlene sobs and says: "Skipper, I am SO sorry; it's ALL my fault!" Skipper comforts her and says: "Don't say that! We've never BEEN through a situation like this before! There was no way we could've been prepared for it!" Marlene cries, and says: "If I had been stronger, you wouldn't have needed to rescue me from myself." Skipper says: "I would NEVER give up on you! And you KNOW that I wouldn't! After everything we've been through, you should know that I'm doing this all for only one reason!" Marlene asks: "What is that?" Skipper sighs and says: "Not for money, or for fame, or for glory; it all boils down to you. I love you MORE than all that stuff! That's why I HAD to come back! That's why I couldn't stay away!" Marlene sniffles and says: "I'm sorry, that I did what I did. I hope you know I was just trying to impress you." Skipper says: "You don't need to impress me, you already do that every day by just being you." Marlene wipes her tears and says: "Thank you, that means a lot to me." Skipper says: "Now we've got to go! We better hurry if we don't want to be eliminated together!" (Confessional)

Marlene says: "Going wild was the biggest failure that's ever happened to me this season. I thought that I could handle anything; I didn't have a clue. I don't know what would've happened if Skipper wasn't there for me. I guess I truly am NOT the contestant I thought I was! Is this what Captain Retro was TRYING to protect me from? The realization that I MIGHT lose?! All of the sudden, I have a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach, and I DON'T think it's something I ate!" / Skipper sighs and says: "This has been quite an ordeal for me. I never thought I would have to save Marlene from herself again, but it happened. I'm glad I was able to handle it. I would've felt TERRIBLE if I couldn't! I just hope that there are no more AWFUL surprises like THAT one! Marlene means everything to me, and I'm willing to do ANYTHING to prove myself to her! I owe her for THAT much! I just hope she realizes that as well!" (End Confessional) Sniz is sitting in a lawn chair, looking at his watch, than hears approaching footsteps! General Barracuda says: "Here come the other contestants!" Sniz quickly stands up and says: "And our safe contestants ARE...Dudley and Chameleon! Rocko and Reggie! Patrick and Suzie! Zarbon and Bulma! Skipper and Marlene!" Rocko asks: "But; wouldn't that mean...?" Dog and a Black-Coated Stimpy arrive, and Sniz says: "Guys, I REALLY hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the challenge is done. You two are the last contestants to finish this challenge, so you are automatically eliminated from the game. I'm really sorry, but rules are rules." Dog sighs and says: "I'll be fine. I had a pretty good run this season." Stimpy says: "I'm just glad that I got to make new friends. I'll be sure to keep in touch with ALL of you! By the way, is there any WAY to get this black paint off of me?" General Barracuda says: "Yes. Unfortunately, it would involve you having to SHAVE yourself fur-less!" Stimpy sighs and says: "Wouldn't be the FIRST time I've gone without fur. But I can wait until I'm somewhere a little more private. Come on, Dog. Let's get back to where we once belonged!" And Stimpy throws down a VIAL of pink powder, and the two of them vanish into the smoky air. Sniz says: "A Lil Deville exit; CLASSIC Stimpy maneuver! The games of Dog and Stimpy might have come to an end, but we still have TWELVE contestants vying for the top prize! Anyone of them; PROBABLY not Bulma and Zarbon, have a good chance of winning it! It is very much anyone's game NOW! Find out who will get one step closer to the Grand Prize, on the next episode, of Total Cartoon Global Cruise!!!!" /

Episode Notes: Dog and Stimpy are BOTH eliminated in this episode, meaning all the representatives from both "Catdog" and "Ren and Stimpy" have now been eliminated. Incidentally, Dog and Stimpy are the ONLY contestants to be eliminated this season (that didn't involve breaking the rules) without an actual elimination ceremony that was proceeded by a vote-off. This also marks the first time DOG has ever ACTUALLY been eliminated, and marks only the SECOND time Stimpy has ever actually been eliminated from the show. Featured songs in this episode are: "Back In Black" and "Black Cat" (BOTH songs as part of the episode title), as well as "Undercover of the Night." This marks the first time this season that Marlene has EVER questioned her ability to actually win this season, which may actually be a bit of FORESHADOWING on her part, as Marlene becomes the ONLY contestant from season two, who has not yet faced an elimination of any kind. Chameleon finally atones for all his past misdeeds by saving Dudley's life in this episode. It is revealed by Anti-Timmy, that there is a MAN behind the Curtain in terms of Bulma's evil deeds! Namely, Dr. Gero!!!! / Personal Notes: Eliminating Dog and Stimpy? I won't lie, it definitely hurts. They were two good power players, who probably could have lasted longer if it weren't for Bulma's scheming and Zarbon's willingness to do what Bulma wanted. But the only way Dog and Stimpy were going to leave, was by THEM making as much of an impact as they could, as they MADE Bulma work VERY hard (even by her standards) just to get the two of them out. And the Man Behind the Curtain plot will DEFINITELY come into play again! Only time will tell where! Now with all the former champions out of the game, it's anyone's guess as to who will walk home with a $44.44 million grand prize! / That's my episode idea for today! Enough said, true believers!

I actually watched Terminator Genisys the other day, so that was a nice little bonus with Anti-Timmy.

This is it! It’s time for the moment you’ve all dreamed of! A contestant who’s been in the game since the beginning of season two, will find that their luck has suddenly run out! Which one is it?! Find out by reading this epic episode! / Sniz is in the cock-pit, and says: “Last time, on Total Cartoon Global Cruise, we went to the jungles of El Salvador in Central America! Zarbon grew tired of the presence of Dog and Stimpy in the game, so he devised a way to get rid of them! By coating Stimpy in black paint, Zarbon was SURE it would change Stimpy’s luck for the worse! But even stranger than Zarbon’s plan, was the strange blue moon hanging over the jungles of El Salvador. It changed Marlene, Dudley, Patrick, and surprisingly, even Bulma for some reason. If that wasn’t enough, Captain Retro and Wally ran into Anti-Timmy and his ugly MUG again! Can’t Anti-Timmy EVER just be CANCELLED, already?! Captain Retro and Wally won immunity, but Dog and Stimpy’s ride came to an end, as they came in last in the challenge, and lost in an automatic, double elimination. We are now down to 12, and a contestant who’s been with us since the beginning of season two, may FINALLY see their game come to an end! No spoilers here! Watch and find out which contestant finally bites it, on a truly magical episode of Total Cartoon Global Cruise! It’s just the luck of the draw, people!” /

Instead of the usual show open, a fantasy sequence involving the remaining 12 contestants is shown, as they all try to perform various magic tricks, with various degrees of success. While they are doing this, an appropriate song is played over the sequence. / Genre: Pop Rock. Sub-genre: Steve Miller Band. Song: “Abracadabra!” Sung by: The Steve Miller Band! / Steve Miller: “I heat up, I can't cool down; you got me spinning around and 'round. Round and 'round and 'round it goes, where it stops nobody knows. Every time you call my name, I heat up like a burning flame. Burning flame full of desire, kiss me baby, let the fire get higher! Abra, abracadabra. I want to reach out and grab you. Abra, abracadabra. Abracadabra. You make me hot, you make me sigh, you make me laugh; you make me cry. Keep me burning for your love, with the touch of a velvet glove. Abra, abracadabra. I want to reach out and grab you. Abra, abracadabra. Abracadabra. I feel the magic in your caress, I feel magic when I touch your dress. Silk and satin, leather and lace, black paintings with an angel's face. I see the magic in your eyes, I hear the magic in your sighs. Just when I think I'm gonna get away, I hear those words that you always say: Abra, abracadabra. I want to reach out and grab you Abra, abracadabra. Abracadabra. Every time you call my name, I heat up like a burning flame! Burning flame full of desire, kiss me baby, let the fire get higher! Yeah, yeah! (Guitar solo) I heat up, I can't cool down; my situation goes 'round and 'round! I heat up, I can't cool down; my situation goes 'round and 'round! I heat up, I can't cool down; my situation goes 'round and 'round!” / And the epic song ends. / “Abracadabra, Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now, Right?!” /

The plane is once again in transit. For once, the action opens up in normal class, where everyone who isn’t Captain Retro and Wally, are currently sleeping. The action zooms in on Marlene, and thanks to the magic of the Fairy Godparents, we get to see what she is dreaming. Marlene is currently panting, as she is running down a LONG hallway of closed, red doors! Marlene says: “This isn’t RIGHT! None of these doors are OPENING!!!! Someone tell me what I’m doing wrong!” Suddenly, the roof OFF of the building flies off. And dark clouds appear in the sky. The clouds MORPH into the face of Captain Retro, and the cloud formation, in Captain Retro’s voice, says: “You KNOW why the doors aren’t opening for you, Marlene!” Marlene asks: “Why is that, Captain Retro?!” The Captain Retro cloud says: “You know very well that I’m not actually Captain Retro. I’m merely acting as the voice of your sub-conscious self, also known as your conscience, which you have LARGELY seem to have forgotten about!” Marlene asks: “Why are the doors, all locked to me?!”

The Captain Retro cloud says: “Because you haven’t done the RIGHT thing, yet!” Marlene asks: “What else do I need to do?! This is no time for YOU to be cryptic!” The Captain Retro Cloud says: “You must apologize for not being truthful. Otherwise, the doors are NEVER going to open for you. Search your heart, and do the RIGHT thing!” The clouds dissipate, and Marlene suddenly BOLTS out of her sleep! Marlene says: “What a STRANGE dream?!” Skipper asks: “You had one, to?!” Marlene nods her head, and says: “Yes.” Skipper says: “You’re worried about the future to, aren’t you?” Marlene moans and says: “Ever since I broke things off with Captain Retro, my dreams have been plagued with feelings of guilt and regret. I just KNEW that if I got together with you and closed myself off to him, those feelings would stop. But they haven’t. If I don’t make this right, I don’t know how I’m ever going to explain myself to our kids!” Skipper gasps and says: “You MEAN?!” Marlene nods her head and says: “Yes. You ARE going to be a father!” Skipper sighs and says: “I had a feeling this was going to happen. I just didn’t think it would be NOW!” Marlene sighs and says: “I have to apologize to Captain Retro.” Skipper asks: “Whatever for?” Marlene says: “If I had just been honest with him from the beginning, I wouldn’t be FEELING the way I am right now! Maybe I can’t change the past, but I CAN change my future, but that’s not going to happen until I apologize for my past mistakes.” Skipper says: “You have no way of knowing if Captain Retro is going to listen to you.” Marlene nods her head, and says: “Maybe so. But as long as I apologize, that’s the important thing that needs to be done. Everything else is secondary.” Skipper says: “Once Captain Retro finds out about this, it’s not going to take TOO long before everyone else finds about it. You’ll become a target, and Bulma may find you to be VERY disposable!” Marlene chuckles and says: “Bulma Briefs doesn’t scare ME in the slightest!” Skipper says: “I can’t believe I’m saying this, but maybe you SHOULD be scared of Bulma! I’ve already been eliminated TWICE, this season, and I’m 99% sure that behind BOTH of those eliminations, Bulma was the MASTERMIND of those eliminations! Maybe I can’t prove it, but that doesn’t matter! I have a gut feeling about it! And my gut has NEVER been wrong before!” Marlene asks: “Do you think, that Bulma wants to get rid of you for good?” Skipper says: “I wouldn’t put it past her. You can’t trust her as far as you can throw her. And if you BELIEVE her claim of weighing only a dainty 111 pounds; that would be pretty FAR for me!” Marlene suddenly gets FILLED with dread and says: “Bulma WANTED to earn my trust, she’s using ME to keep tabs on what you’re thinking, what your strategies are!” Skipper asks: “How could you put yourself into such a precarious situation?!” Marlene horrifyingly says: “I don’t know! All I know is that I’m endangering your game, I shouldn’t be here!” Skipper says: “Don’t TALK like that! We’re going to be all right! We’re together, and everything’s going to be fine, you’ll see!” Marlene says: “There’s only ONE guy on this plane who can make sure of that! I just HOPE Captain Retro is in a listening mood.” Skipper says: “Well, just don’t get your hopes up TOO high!” Marlene says: “Look, this mess we’re currently in is MY fault; I caused this! And if one of us has to take the FALL for ever trusting Bulma Briefs, I will. I’m NOT letting Bulma Briefs eliminate you again! If she WANTS to target you, she’s got to contend with ME, first! And I’m NOT giving up without a fight! I will NOT surrender a $44.44 million grand prize so easily!” Skipper romantically says: “Thank you, Marlene. I know that whatever happens, we’ll be a better couple for it.” Marlene says: “Not only that, but we’ll be parents that our kids can be PROUD of!” /

(Confessional) Marlene sighs and says: “THIS must be why Captain Retro wasn’t WILLING to tell me about the future, he must have FORESAW this possibility coming! And he must have KNOWN that I wouldn’t be willing to acknowledge it! I not only failed Captain Retro, but I failed myself. I thought that I could handle anything, but the UGLY truth was one thing I couldn’t. Well, now that I’m faced with all of this unpleasantness, I’m not going to back away from it now! I can’t! Skipper’s in a bad spot right now because of me, and I’m the only one who can get him out! I’m willing to do ANYTHING for Skipper!” /

Skipper sighs and says: “My ride this season has been very hard. I guess I wasn’t the only one who had to learn how to be mature and grown-up, Marlene had some lessons she needed to learn, as well. And Captain Retro was trying to help her. But no matter how good a teacher is, there are some things a guy or girl can only learn by experiencing it for themselves. This is one of those times. But Marlene has NEVER run away from a challenge before; no matter HOW insurmountable, and I don’t believe that she’s going to start, NOW!” (End Confessional) Marlene knocks on the V.I.P. Lounge door. Wally asks: “Should I open it?” Captain Retro says: “It should be who I am expecting.” Wally opens the door, and surprisingly asks: “Marlene?” Marlene awkwardly says: “Hi, Wally.” Captain Retro sighs and says: “So, you’re finally ready to deal with the truth. That MUST be why you’re here; otherwise, you wouldn’t be here.” Marlene says: “I’m ready to deal with the truth that I wasn’t READY to face the possibility that I might not win this season. You tried to prepare me, and I wouldn’t listen to your concerns.” Captain Retro says: “That’s not why I’m disappointed in you; how could you deceive me?! I gave you my complete trust, and you just shattered it! How could you do that?!” Marlene says: “It was that KISS between us that started it! When our lips touched, I somehow got a GLIMPSE into your ability to SEE different futures, and the future I saw was ME winning the $44.44 million, all by being in an alliance with you! That’s why I got together with you!” Captain Retro says: “The FUTURE, you saw, was the one you WANTED to see! And when you SAW that future, you refused to ALLOW yourself to see ANY future besides THAT one! I didn’t realize it at first, because I thought you genuinely loved me, and I WANTED it to be true. But as time passed, that feeling became muted, and my doubts grew greater and greater. I even GAVE you an opportunity in the Congo to tell me how you were feeling, but you didn’t tell me your TRUE feelings about Skipper! So that’s why I’m doubting your ability to accept the truth. If you’re not truthful with me, how can expect to hear the truth from me?” Marlene says: “It’s no longer about ME, anymore! Skipper and I, we’re going to become PARENTS!!!!” Wally gasps and says: “No way!” Captain Retro sighs and asks: “Do you HAVE to do EVERYTHING that Treeflower does?” Marlene says: “It’s not like that, okay?! Look, I’m sorry I lied to you! It was a TERRIBLE idea, and I never should’ve done it! I finally admit it, I did a lousy THING by leading you on! I was doing the SAME thing to you that Bulma is doing to Zarbon! I REALIZE that now! Now how about some forgiveness?! Can you give me just a drop?” Captain Retro sighs and says: “Very well. I will tell you now; what you didn’t and/or wouldn’t hear before over Vietnam. But I have to warn you; what you hear, you may not LIKE to hear. Will you still accept what I’m about to tell you?” Marlene says: “I’ve got my eyes wide open; I’m not going to look away this time.” Captain Retro closes his eyes and says: “Here’s what I can see; we’re going to Las Vegas for today’s challenge. It’s an either/or, you will either have to Race Cars around a race-track, or perform a complicated magic trick. You and Skipper will both try your best, but you will not succeed in getting immunity. When the elimination ceremony comes, Bulma and Zarbon will have their sights set on eliminating one of only TWO possibilities that would PREVENT them from going any further. Instead of trying to target me, they will select the two contestants who have thwarted their abilities to deceive EVERYONE in the game.” Marlene asks: “Who would THAT be?” Captain Retro answers: “YOU and Skipper! You two have never totally BELIEVED anything that Bulma and Zarbon have said; and they are angry that their attempts to deceive you have not worked. It will be a single elimination ceremony tonight. I’m afraid that when all is said and done, no matter WHAT you try to do, ONE of you WILL be eliminated by the time the Elimination Ceremony ends.” And Captain Retro opens his eyes.

Marlene sighs and says: “So THAT’S why you didn’t want to tell me the future back in Vietnam. Even if you told me, I wouldn’t have listened. I didn’t want to hear it. I’m sorry. Is there anything I can do to help you?” Captain Retro says: “You’ve done enough by apologizing. That’s all I wanted.”

Marlene asks: “Is there…is there anything I can do to SAVE Skipper?” Captain Retro says: “Skipper’s game is his own. And it shames me to say that in spite of all my training, I can’t predict what Skipper is going to do. He’s too unpredictable for me. That’s one of the reasons why I never TRIED to figure him out in my plans to get rid of the evil contestants in this game; I had no way of knowing if I could totally rely on Skipper or not. Just remember, Marlene. Nothing is written in stone. You CAN save Skipper tonight, but that would require the ultimate sacrifice on your part; you would NEED to give up your own game in order to save Skipper’s. Tell me, are you WILLING to give up everything you’ve worked for, to keep Skipper in?” Marlene gulps, and bravely says: “I’ll do whatever it takes for my Skipper!” Captain Retro thinks about it, and says: “We’ll see. But whatever you do, you will have to do on your own. I can’t, and I won’t, interfere with your game plan in any way.” Marlene says: “I understand.” Marlene starts to leave, and Captain Retro says: “Oh, and one more thing! I’m really sorry that it didn’t work out between us. But if I had to do it all over again, I probably wouldn’t change a thing. You’re my favorite mistake!” Marlene chuckles and says: “I figured out THAT much!” (Confessional) Marlene sighs and says: “Well, I finally got the apology out of my system; and I also figured out why the doors haven’t been opening in my dreams. I just never expected to find out what my dreams meant! They’re a representation of my fears! I have to choose between Skipper and myself! I can see now why Captain Retro wasn’t more eager to share my future with me. Sometimes, the future is NOT a pleasant thing to KNOW about! But I have made it my VOW to SAVE Skipper, and nothing’s going to stop me from doing it! Skipper’s NOT going to leave the game this time! I stood by TWICE while Skipper got the boot, and that’s NOT going to happen again! Skipper IS going to stay in the game, even if that means sacrificing myself in order to do it!” / Captain Retro says: “Marlene has definitely matured a lot since she broke up with me, I’ll give her that much. But Bulma isn’t one to just LET Marlene BREAK off an alliance with her! Bulma is willing to offer Marlene ANYTHING to keep her in an alliance with Marlene, ANYTHING!!!! Bulma wants DESPERATELY to blindside somebody! She will either BETRAY Marlene in her alliance, or she will betray Skipper if Marlene REFUSES her! I just hope Marlene is ready for ANYTHING Bulma is prepared to offer her!” (End Confessional) Suzie sighs and says: “You know what, Patrick? I’ve got a GOOD feeling about today!” Patrick asks: “Why is that?” Suzie says: “Well, everyone is back to normal. All the former champions are out of the competition, and with the exception of Rocko and Marlene, I have the most collective experience of ANYONE remaining in this game! I can take on ANY challenge that Sniz can think of!” Patrick says: “You know the game is not over yet, right Suzie?” Suzie asks: “What could POSSIBLY go wrong?!” Rocko says: “You’re tempting FATE, Suzie! And tempting fate is NEVER a good idea! Remember irony has a funny way of sneaking up on you when everything’s okay, and everything is going RIGHT!” Reggie says: “That’s one of the major reasons WHY I have tried very HARD this season to NOT take fate for granted! Being a surfer, I know all too easily how the weather can quickly change.” Suzie thinks about it, and says: “Your point is WELL taken! In that case, I rescind ANY feelings I have that the Final Three is automatically mine!” Patrick says: “I don’t think it WORKS like that, Suzie.” Suzie says: “In that case, how about we all protect each other? We’re all representatives from season one, right? How about we form a season one alliance? Let’s make sure that whoever wins season three, is someone from season one?!” Reggie says: “I can’t argue with that!” Rocko says: “I wouldn’t know how to!” Suzie says: “All right! As of right now, the Boom Vets are BACK in business, as the Boom Vet Alliance!” (Confessional)

Suzie says: “I’ve been spending all of my time RESISTING trying to get together with Patrick, only to consistently get paired up with him! Eventually, I decided; why fight it?! If the Universe wants to pair me up with Patrick, so be it. I’m willing to go to any lengths to get the first place prize, as long as it’s legal!” /

Rocko says: “I must admit, I’m really impressed by Suzie’s new-found interest in karma and working together with the rest of the season one pro’s! It’s good karma for her, and furthermore, I think it’s also very healthy for her to work with us! After all, now with Dog and Stimpy gone, the rest of us are going to have to work harder in order to secure the first place prize! I have no doubt that Bulma will want to get rid of either Skipper or Marlene first before setting her sights on me, but I’ll worry about that when the time comes. As long as Reggie stays in the game, everything else is secondary in my opinion!” / Reggie says: “The season one contestants, or what’s left of us, are FINALLY back together again! When we get together, we can do REALLY amazing things, even Patrick! I wouldn’t doubt that Patrick has been holding back on us until now, saving his TRUE game-playing skills for when he REALLY needs it, such as near the END of the game, which it’s starting to become!” / Patrick says: “The truth of the matter is, I’ve been trying to hold back on my TRUE game-playing skill until now. If I keep Bulma’s expectations of me very LOW, she’ll see me as LESS of a threat, and therefore, I’ll be LESS of a target! But the only way ANY of us are going to potentially WIN a $44.44 million grand prize, is if Zarbon and Bulma are NOT part of the picture! I hope we can do very well today, and ENSURE that Zarbon takes the drop of shame tonight! Eliminating Zarbon will leave Bulma with nothing, and we can pick her off at our leisure! EVERYTHING boils down to getting rid of Zarbon!” (End Confessional) Chameleon is tenderly kissing Dudley, and Chameleon says: “Oh, Dudley, I was so afraid the other day in El Salvador. I was worried you were going to get hurt!” Dudley says: “It means so much to me that you saved me, because I know now that your bad guy days are truly behind you.” Chameleon says: “They truly are, Dudley. I have my mind set on being good.” Dudley smiles and says: “I’m glad to hear that, because Keswick wanted ME to give you something when you were TRULY ready!” Chameleon asks: “What is that?!” Dudley gets a green box, opens it, and in it, glitters a BRIGHT white light! The glow dissipates, and Chameleon puts his hands into the box. In his hands, he pulls out a WHITE version of his destroyed Changing Suit! Dudley says: “Happy birthday, Chameleon!” Chameleon chokes up and says: “You remembered my birthday! It’s a brand new Changing Suit. But I don’t understand, I thought my Changing Suit was gone forever.” Dudley says: “It wasn’t easy for Keswick to build you a new one, or for us to keep it secret. Keswick had to use a LOT of technology to build you a new one. This Changing Suit has been built to work for the forces of good, and can never BE used for any evil purposes, and it will work only for YOU, Chameleon!” Chameleon cries and says: “This is the best gift that anyone has ever given me!” Dudley says: “The best gift anyone has given you so FAR!” (Confessional) Chameleon is wearing his brand NEW Changing Suit, and says: “I look good in white! Of course, I also look good with Dudley, but that goes without saying! I can’t WAIT to utilize my new Changing Suit in challenges! It’s going to be AMAZING!!!!” / Dudley says: “After the Mexican challenge, Keswick wanted to put together a brand new Changing Suit for Chameleon. Keswick got it finished RIGHT before the Bangkok challenge! Keswick told me that once I was SURE that Chameleon was completely good, to give it to him. It seems only fitting to give it to him on his birthday. He’s another year older, another year wiser, and has a whole lot of friends that he didn’t used to have! With Chameleon on our side, I know we can accomplish anything!” (End Confessional)

Zarbon looks in a hand mirror, and sees that his face has completely healed from his altercation with Po. Zarbon says: “You’re in luck, Bulma. The emergency is over! I’m completely BEAUTIFUL again, and we can resume to cuddling like we used to!” Bulma indifferently says: “Whatever.” Zarbon asks: “Aren’t you more excited?! Everyone else thinks I’m WONDERFUL!” Bulma sarcastically says: “Yeah, you’re SO wonderful that you had to LIE about having a ‘GIRLFRIEND’ just to make yourself FEEL better!” Zarbon sputters and says: “You think I MADE that UP?! Why would I make that up?! I HAD a girlfriend!” Bulma sarcastically says: “Uh-huh, I’m SO sure!” Zarbon protests and says: “I DID!”

Bulma says: “Look, it doesn’t even MATTER anyways, does it?! The point is, there will be NO cuddling; not until we get RID of a FEW loose ends!” Zarbon asks: “What would THOSE be?!” Bulma says: “Skipper and Marlene!” Zarbon says: “But I thought you were in an ALLIANCE with Skipper and Marlene!” Bulma correctively says: “I was in a FAKE alliance! Only pretend! It’s not like I was EVER going to give Skipper and Marlene a DIME of the $44.44 million grand prize!” Zarbon realizes this and says: “OH!” Than Zarbon THINKS about it, and says: “But wait! Why go to the TROUBLE of making an Alliance with Skipper and Marlene if you’re not REALLY partners with them?!” Bulma chuckles deviously and says: “Haven’t you figured OUT my game-play strategy YET?! It’s not enough to simply BEAT everyone else, we have to HUMILIATE them THOROUGHLY, FIRST! After all, victory is SO much SWEETER when you BLINDSIDE your PATHETIC opponents! They NEVER see it coming! Our plans are SO perfect!” Zarbon romantically says: “You know I agree with that, and I DO like to blindside our opponents. They don’t deserve the grand prize anyways, not like us, right?!” Bulma romantically says: “Oh, not like YOU, Zarbon! You’re MUCH too pretty and smart to EVER yet anyone pull YOU around on a string! You’ve got THIS game in the palm of your hands!” Zarbon confidently says: “I certainly do!” Bulma says: “Than the game plan is SIMPLE for us! Marlene needs to make a choice, between her game and her husband. She can either abandon Skipper and WORK for us, or we can totally CRUSH her in the Elimination Ceremony tonight! Either way, we’ll make sure that whoever it is, be it Skipper or Marlene; ONE of them is going to be BLINDSIDED tonight! Ha, ha, HA!!!!” Zarbon chuckles deviously and says: “I just LOVE the way your brilliant mind, WORKS, Bulma!!!!” (Confessional) Zarbon says: “Getting together with Bulma was the BEST thing that has happened to me this season, bar none! Bulma has her sights set on eliminating everyone ELSE, and making sure our relationship is TIGHT! We are going to the Final Two together, and NOBODY is going to get in our way! I have Bulma’s love, and I won’t let ANYBODY tear us apart! It looks like I’m going to get a truly happy ENDING when everything is said and done; I’ll get the Grand Prize money, AND I’ll get the Girl! A win-win situation either way you cut it!” / Bulma chuckles deviously and says: “I can’t BELIEVE how thoroughly gullible Zarbon is; he actually TRUSTS me, and he really BELIEVES we’re going to the Final Two together; the FOOL!!!!” Bulma doesn’t REALIZE that Marlene has just ENTERED into the Confessional behind her! Bulma says: I’ve been leading Zarbon on since day ONE!!!! I’ve been fooling ALL of them, and they DON’T even suspect the TRUTH!!!! I’ll blindside ALL those fools, and get the money and fame I so GREATLY desire AND deserve! And NO one will EVER make fun of Bulma Briefs AGAIN!!!!” And Marlene ZOOMS out of there WITHOUT being seen! /

Marlene moans and says: “I can’t BELIEVE this! I knew Bulma was DECEIVING the contestants, but I truly THOUGHT that she had a legitimate relationship with ZARBON! I can’t BELIEVE that Bulma is LYING to Zarbon, to! I may have found a way to save Skipper WITHOUT sacrificing my game! If I tell Zarbon the TRUTH about what Bulma SAID about her, Zarbon might just change his mind and eliminate Bulma INSTEAD! After all, nothing ventured, nothing gained; right?” (End Confessional) Sniz breathes through his nose and says: “Smell that GOOD Nevada air! It’s good to be back in the states!” Fondue says: “And it’s time to make your announcement!” Sniz says: “Right!” And he grabs the intercom, and speaks through it. Sniz says: “Attention passengers/contestants. We have decided to relive one of our FAVORITE challenges from season two, we’re going to Las Vegas, Nevada! And unlike our PAST challenges, you have a CHOICE as to what challenge to do; you’ll either perform a complicated magic trick, or drive race cars around a race track! The choice is yours, but be warned; the elimination ceremony WON’T be as straight forward today!” Skipper turns to Marlene, and Skipper asks: “What does Sniz MEAN by that?!”

Sniz says: “If you’re wondering what I MEAN by that, I mean that you have to EARN your right to vote TONIGHT! On the Race Track, and on the Magic Stage, hide your voting stamps in marked envelopes. Only by successfully grabbing YOUR marked Envelope, will you be able to VOTE tonight! And don’t even THINK about destroying another contestant’s envelope, or you will automatically get a Penalty Vote!” Marlene says: At least we don’t have to worry about any sabotaging in THIS challenge!” Sniz says: “We’ll be landing at the Las Vegas International Airport shortly. So buckle up and get prepared for the landing!” Skipper sighs and says: “Here we are, the moment of truth!” Marlene says: “Skipper, Bulma has been LYING to Zarbon since Day ONE! Blonda was RIGHT!!!! Bulma IS a schemer and just USING Zarbon!!!!” Skipper’s eyes widen and says: “I can’t believe Bulma is THAT deceptive! Well, I CAN believe it! But it’s just so HARD to believe!” Marlene says: “And unless my instincts fail me, I think Captain Retro might have suspected this for quite a while now. If I can tell Zarbon the truth, he will TURN on Bulma and eliminate her!” Skipper asks: “What about Zarbon?” Marlene asks: “Isn’t Bulma CLEARLY the bigger danger, now?! If Bulma is WILLING to go to the trouble of lying to Zarbon, she must have a very good REASON as to WHY she would RISK such a maneuver; otherwise, she wouldn’t even ATTEMPT it!” Skipper says: “I bet you’re right, Marlene. There might be something MUCH bigger than Bulma at work here, if we only knew what it is!” Marlene says: “At least our solution is very simple; remove Bulma and we remove whatever it is she is connected to.” Skipper says: “Agreed! Let’s take out Bulma and we can focus on eliminating Zarbon, afterwards!” And the wheels touch on the runway. Sniz says: “We have now landed at the airport. We’ve got to take a break for some commercials. But when we come back, everyone will choose which challenge they will do. Stay tuned!” (Commercial Break) / I’ll break here and stop for now. Enough said, for now!

[4EverGreen]

The moment of truth is finally here! Everything will be revealed in the second and final half of my most recent “Total Cartoon Global Cruise” episode idea, “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now, Right?!” And just as a side-note, ignore the sudden font change that happens when reading this episode, there's nothing I can do about that. / After the commercials end, the 12 contestants get out of the plane, and assemble in a group close to Sniz. Sniz says: “All right, it’s finally time to get this either/or challenge out of the way. You will be divided into six groups of two, which means that three groups HAVE to choose to drive around an obstacle filled race track. You will have to grab 12 flags and your voting stamps in five minutes or less in order to finish the challenge! Three groups MUST perform a complicated magic trick, and the activities are first come, first served. Responsible for the group pairings, is General Barracuda! Horatio, tell them who is going to get paired with who!” General Barracuda says: “Right, then! Captain Retro will get paired with Wally, Rocko will get paired with Reggie, Dudley will get paired with Chameleon, Marlene will get paired with Skipper, Suzie, will SURPRISINGLY get paired with Patrick, while Bulma will NOT surprisingly be paired with Zarbon! Since Captain Retro and Wally won the Immunity Challenge last time, they will get first pick as to which challenge they will attempt.” Wally says: “It’s your call. Admiral Wally, his smartness, will respect whatever option you go with.” Captain Retro says: “We’ll take the race track! Wally will drive, and I will grab the flags and the voting stamps!” General Barracuda says: “Everyone else, make your choices before someone else makes them!” And the other contestants scramble to put their heads together! Rocko says: “Reggie and I will take driving!” Bulma says: “Zarbon and I will take magic!” Marlene says: “Skipper and I will ALSO take magic!” Dudley says: “Chameleon and I will take DRIVING!” Suzie sighs and says: “So by default, Patrick and I get stuck with magic. That’s just FINE!” (Confessional) Captain Retro says: “I am very confident, that Wally has the skills needed to drive us to victory. All I need to worry about is grabbing all the flags and our voting stamps in under five minutes. Depending on who gets victory for themselves, we might be faced with a hard decision.” / Rocko says: “Driving skills come by from years of mastering the crazy traffic of O-Town. I obey the rules of the road and I live by them. Reggie and I will be able to OWN this challenge!” / Bulma rolls her eyes and says: “Of COURSE I had to take magic! HELLO! It’s a skill which requires absolutely NO physical skill on MY part whatsoever! And with the jokers WE have to fight against, guess who’s going to win?!” / Marlene says: “I know Skipper likes to drive, but I just have a funny feeling about the cars. After all, the cars have been in STORAGE in the back of the plane, which means Bulma and Zarbon had full ACCESS to them, in-between challenges. And since there are no rules against tampering with equipment when a challenge ISN’T taking place, there’s a good chance that Zarbon has sabotaged a car or maybe two in order to mess with the other contestants! This way, Skipper and I have a cushion of safety, and it will be a LOT harder for Bulma OR Zarbon to sabotage us!” / Dudley says: “I have no way of KNOWING what the magic trick is going to be, whereas I know what the driving challenge is going to be! By doing the driving challenge, we have a better chance of accomplishing it and WINNING!” / Suzie groans, and says: “I sure hope Patrick doesn’t mess THIS magic challenge up!” / Patrick says: “I sure hope I don’t mess the magic challenge up!” (End Confessional) Sniz says: “All right! Fairy God Parents, poof our drivers to the race track near North Las Vegas, and poof our magicians to the Mirage on the Las Vegas Strip!” Wanda says: “No problem, Sniz!” And Wanda poofs the contestants to their respective destinations! /

The action first shifts to the drivers, who are presented with a challenging landscape of tall, stone columns, rocky terrain, and a lot of dust! Over the communicators, Sniz speaks to the drivers. Sniz says: “Attention, drivers! You will see three cars that you can choose from to drive in this challenge! Choose one and hope your luck and skill is with you! The group that accomplishes this task first, will BOTH achieve immunity from the vote-off! The group that accomplishes the task second, will choose which ONE of them will get immunity, while the group that finishes last won’t get ANY immunity at all!”

Chameleon gulps nervously and says: “Oh, boy! That puts a lot of pressure on us!” Sniz says: “And if you are unable to complete the race track in five minutes or less, you will have to tackle the whole course AGAIN until you can drive it in under five minutes! Good luck, to all of you!” Captain Retro says: “We get the green car!” Reggie says: “We get the blue car!” Dudley says: “I guess we get the purple car!” And the contestants put on their safety goggles and helmets, before getting in their open-air vehicles. Captain Retro asks: “Are you ready to drive us to victory?” Wally confidently says: “Born that way!” Wanda magically appears in the air with a racing flag in her left hand. Wanda says: “Drivers, on your mark! Get ready, get set!” Wanda magically produces an air horn, and blows it! Wanda yells: “GO!!!!” Wally takes off immediately, while Rocko AND Dudley both STALL at the starting line! Reggie asks: “What’s with our car?! It’s NOT going!” Rocko says: “Oh, yes, it WILL!” And Rocko KICKS the car near the engine, and it starts to purr normally! Rocko says: “Works on MY car ALL the time back at home!” And Rocko strives to catch up with Wally! (Confessional) Reggie says: “What I REALLY love about Rocko, is that he’s smart AND reliable! I sure hope he realizes this if he hasn’t already!” (End Confessional)

Wanda says: “It looks like the race is going to be tight between at least TWO groups of drivers! Let’s check in on the Magicians!” And Wanda magically teleports to where the Magicians are. She waves her wand, and General Barracuda appears. General Barracuda says: “I’ll NEVER get used to traveling by magic!” Wanda says: “Give it a few years, you’ll get acclimated to it, or you’ll have a psychotic episode!” General Barracuda rolls his eyes and says: “Whatever! Ladies and gentlemen watching at home, it’s time to see which of our contestants are the best at making magic REAL! Vying for the superior sleight of hand, are Patrick and Suzie, Bulma and Zarbon, and Marlene and Skipper! Personally, my money’s on Bulma and Zarbon! The rules are simple; ONE contestant gets into a glass box, from which they will also share with the SAME escaped Black Panther last seen WAY back in the Caribbean episode. They will be separated ONLY by a thin sheet of glass. When I give the signal, the contestant OUTSIDE of the box, will pull the lever, dropping the curtain which will cover the glass box. When you are ready, you will activate the secret mechanism which will open up a trap door UNDER the panther, and remove the glass sheet. You will then pull the curtain up, HOPEFULLY revealing a completely unhurt partner! Now, if you fail to perform your magic trick correctly, you will forfeit that turn, and you will have to let someone else attempt the challenge. The group that successfully performs the magic trick correctly FIRST, will BOTH receive immunity! The group the successfully performs the magic trick correctly SECOND, will CHOOSE which one of them receives immunity! The group that successfully performs the magic trick last, won’t get ANY immunity and will be at the MERCY of the other contestants! But before you get ready to perform this magic trick, I should let you know that there IS a way to get your voting stamps, but that is a MAGIC trick in itself! You will have to figure it out on your own! So, good luck with that!” Wanda says: “Enough! Decide which of you will be the magician, and which one will be the assistant.” Bulma boastfully says: “I will be the MASTER magician, obviously! All of you don’t even need to BOTHER trying!” Marlene sarcastically says: “Oh, SURE! Get a swelled head! That will REALLY help you achieve this magic trick!” Bulma scoffs and says: “You WISH you had my talent!” Skipper asks: “And YOUR delusions of grandeur? Not on your LIFE!” Suzie says: “I will be the MAGICIAN, if you don’t MIND, Patrick!” Patrick asks: “Come on! Don’t you trust me?!” Suzie says: “Save it for someone who actually CARES, Patrick; my decision is FINAL!” Skipper says: “Marlene, you better be the Magician.” Marlene asks: “Really?!” Skipper says: “I can handle the panther if things go wrong. Besides, I totally TRUST you!” (Confessional) Marlene says: “That’s awesome! Skipper totally TRUSTS me! And I have no intention of letting him down!” / Patrick scoffs and says: “I can’t BELIEVE that Suzie doesn’t trust me, even after all this time! Talk about having no confidence in me!” (End Confessional)

General Barracuda says: “All right! The picks are chosen! Of course, you always have the option of SWITCHING your positions later if you so desire! Patrick and Suzie, we will let you go first!” Suzie sighs in relief and says: “Finally! I catch a break! There’s no WAY I’m going to mess THIS up!” And Patrick gets in the glass box. General Barracuda says: “Suzie, lower the curtain!” Suzie says: “Lowering curtain!” And Suzie pulls the lever, lowering the curtain. General Barracuda says: “Suzie, wow us with your magic!” Suzie says: “Prepare to be DAZZLED!” And Suzie pulls the curtain back up, but it’s CLEAR that she didn’t DO the Magic Trick right, because both Patrick AND the Panther are trapped in the Glass Box TOGETHER! (Confessional) Patrick says: “I can’t believe this! Has Suzie OFFICIALLY lost her MIND?! Or has she grown THAT tired of getting ME as a partner?! Of course, I wasn’t worried! Because I was perfectly prepared with a PLAN; Plan Patrick!” / Suzie calls on her phone, and says: “Hey, Lil! $10 says that Patrick will try Plan Patrick!” On the phone, Lil says: “Make it $20!” Suzie says: “Deal!” (End Confessional) Patrick goes up to the panther and says: “Excuse me, Mr. Panther; I know that you’re accustomed to chewing on tender steaks and occasionally chasing after beavers and cats, but I have no desire to fight against you or run from you, so I would appreciate it if you would just leave me alone. Pretty please with frosted sugar lumps on top?” The Panther barely blinks, and he starts to CHOMP on Patrick! Patrick screams: “OW!!!! OW!!!! OW!!!! Help! HELP!!!! I’m getting mauled by a panther! WAIT!!!! I found OUR voting stamps hidden in an envelope hidden in the panther’s mouth, but I’m STILL getting MAULED by a panther!” General Barracuda shouts: “WANDA!!!!” Wanda says: “On it!” And Wanda magically produces an electric shock collar around the panther, causing it to let GO of Patrick, and Wanda resets the glass box. General Barracuda says: “Wanda, check on Patrick and make sure he’s all right to continue on in this challenge. In the meantime, Bulma and Zarbon are up next!” /

The action shifts back to the drivers, but Dudley STILL can’t make his car go! Dudley says: “It’s no use, Chameleon! I think our car is SHOT to pieces, and the NEAREST repair shop is about five miles away!” Chameleon’s eyes light up and says: “I’ve got an idea!” Dudley asks: “What’s that?!” Chameleon says: “I’ve got a new Changing Suit, I’ll use it!” Dudley says: “Is that in the rules?” Chameleon says: “Sniz never SAID it was AGAINST the rules! Therefore, it’s fair and legal! Besides, you want to win as much as THEY do, right?!” Dudley says: “Of course I do!” Chameleon gets out of the broken car, and TRANSFORMS into a purple car! Chameleon says: “Hop in!” And Dudley does this! Chameleon says: “You grab the flags and our voting stamps, and I’ll do the driving!” Dudley says: “Sounds good!” Chameleon says: “Let’s catch up!” And they pursue after the other drivers! While the drivers are all driving, a familiar sound is heard! (Beep! Beep! Ba-Beep! Beep! Beep!) Sniz comes over the communicators and says: “Attention ALL contestants, whether you’re driving or in the middle of a magic trick, you must ALL sing NOW!” Bulma asks: “RIGHT now?!” Zarbon yells: “BULMA, the PANTHER!!!!” The panther growls, and Zarbon PUNCHES him! Bulma gulps and yells: “Sorry, Zarbon! I was RUDELY distracted by Sniz!” Sniz says: “Irrelevant! I want you all to sing a song, about how NOTHING is going to stop you! Do you like Starship?” Captain Retro asks: “Who doesn’t?!” Sniz says: “Than sing a song by Starship!” /

During this sequence, the drivers are seen driving, all of them successfully grabbing their flags, and their voting stamps; while the Magicians are ALL trying to perform their magic trick, and FAILING for one reason or another! / Genre: 1980’s Rock. Sub-genre: Starship. Song: “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now.” Sung by: Skipper, Marlene, Zarbon, Bulma, Rocko, Reggie, Dudley, Chameleon, Captain Retro, Wally, Suzie, and Patrick. / (Instrumental Solo) Skipper: “Looking in your eyes, I see a paradise. This world that I've found, is too good to be true. Standing here beside you, want so much to give you this love in my heart that I'm feeling for you.” Marlene: “Let them say we're crazy, I don't care about that! Put your hand in my hand baby, don't ever look back! Let the world around us, just fall apart! Baby, we can make it if we're heart to heart!” Everyone: “And we can build this dream together, standing strong forever, nothing's gonna stop us now! And if this world runs out of lovers, we'll still have each other. Nothing's gonna stop us, nothing's gonna stop us now!” Captain Retro: “WOAH!!!!” Rocko: “I'm so glad I found you, I'm not gonna lose you. Whatever it takes, I will stay here with you. Take it to the good times, see it through the bad times. Whatever it takes, is what I'm gonna do.” Reggie: “Let them say we're crazy, what do they know? Put your arms, around me baby, don't ever let go! Let the world around us just fall apart! Baby, we can make it if we're heart to heart!” Everyone: “And we can build this dream together, standing strong forever, nothing's gonna stop us now! And if this world runs out of lovers, we'll still have each other. Nothing's gonna stop us, nothing's gonna stop us.” Zarbon: “Ooh, all that I need is you!” Bulma, thinking about money: “All that I ever need!” Dudley to Chameleon: “And all that I want to do, is hold you forever, ever and ever!” Wally: “Hey!” (Guitar Solo) Everyone: “And we can build this dream together, standing strong forever, nothing's gonna stop us now! And if this world runs out of lovers, we'll still have each other. Nothing's gonna stop us!” Suzie, about Otto: “Nothing's gonna stop us! Whoa!” Captain Retro: “Nothing's gonna stop us now! Nothing’s going to stop us now! Oh, no!” Patrick, about Pearl: “Hey baby, I know! Hey baby, nothing's gonna stop us now!” Chameleon: “Hey baby, woo! Nothing! Hey, baby! Nothing's gonna stop us now, yeah!” / And the epic song ENDS as Wally and Captain Retro CROSS the race track finish line FIRST at 4 minutes and 44 seconds! Wanda says: “And Wally and Captain Retro BOTH clinch immunity with a 4 minute, 44 second finish! (ZOOM!) And Rocko and Reggie clock in at 4 minutes and 50 seconds! (ZOOM!) And Dudley and Chameleon improvise, finishing in at 4 minutes and 55 seconds, and they ALL have their voting stamps. Rocko and Reggie, which one of you wants the second place immunity?” Rocko says: “Reggie has to have it, no contest.” Reggie says: “That’s very nice of you, but don’t you want it?” Rocko says: “I’m not worried about MY safety. If my elimination happens, it will happen. But as long as you’re safe, that’s all I care about!” Reggie romantically says: “You’re TRUE blue!”

(Confessional) Rocko says: “Man, did I luck out with Reggie Rocket or WHAT?!” / Dudley says: “I’ve got to handle it to Keswick; that new Changing Suit he made for Chameleon works like a charm!” / Chameleon says: “It sure feels refreshing to use a Changing Suit for GOOD purposes instead of for evil. I just WISH that I could prove that Zarbon or Bulma sabotaged OUR car, then we could get them a Penalty vote on a technicality!” / Captain Retro says: “Our victory came in as I anticipated. So far, everything is holding up. All that remains to unfold is Marlene’s test. Bulma will NOT take Marlene’s loyalty to Skipper lightly. There is no TELLING what Bulma might offer her!” (End Confessional) Wanda says: “Drivers, you may return to the plane to await tonight’s vote-off. Weve got a magic act to see finish!” And Wanda waves her wand, and teleports back to the Magic Act, where Skipper has just FINISHED tossing the panther into the other end of the glass box, but successfully retrieving the voting stamps for himself AND Marlene! Skipper says: “Well, at least I got our voting stamps!” Skipper gets out, and General Barracuda says: “I can’t believe this! You’ve ALL tried three times, and NONE of you have gotten this magic trick RIGHT, yet! Of course, there’s still PLENTY to be excited about! Suzie and Patrick, are you ready to TRY the trick again?!” Patrick says: “Suzie, you’ve got to trade places with me! I promise you; with my brain coral, I CAN do this!” Suzie looks and says: “I don’t KNOW if I…” Patrick says: “Look! The chance for our immunity is on the line! Do you trust me?!” Suzie says: “Well I…” Patrick asks: “Do you TRUST me?!” Suzie says: “Somehow, I do.” General Barracuda says: “Patrick and Suzie are switching it up! Lets see if it WORKS for them!” Suzie gets in, and Patrick lowers the curtain.

Patrick says: “Let’s see if I remember this right; right is tight, left is loose, so if I pull the lever LEFT, I will make the trap door LOOSE, and if I pull it RIGHT; I will THEN make the trap door tight again! And I LIFT up the curtain, and make the REVEAL!!!!” And Patrick pulls up the curtain. Sure enough, the panther is GONE and Suzie is STILL fine! General Barracuda says: “Patrick and Suzie have done it! They BOTH receive immunity!” Zarbon protests: “Are you INSANE?! Patrick isn’t even PRETTY like me!” General Barracuda says: “Don’t hate the players, hate the game!” (Confessional) Zarbon angrily says: “Bulma BETTER get the trick right THIS time, and no more EXCUSES!!!!” / Suzie gasps and says: “Patrick got the trick RIGHT?!!! Well, I suppose even a BROKEN clock is right at least TWICE a day; unless it’s on Military Time, in which case, it’s only right once!” / Patrick says: “I’m feeling pretty proud of myself having done the magic trick, right. I’ve probably been pushed up from a three to at LEAST a six on Suzie’s respect-o-meter by now!” (End Confessional) Bulma whispers and says: “Marlene, I want to talk to you!” Marlene asks: “What do you want?” Bulma says: “Come with me behind the stage.” And Marlene follows Bulma. Marlene says: “You WANT something, don’t you?!” Bulma says: “You’re no stranger to THIS game! You KNOW that I’m going to get the magic trick right THIS time, RIGHT?! So you and Skipper have NO chance to get immunity! You are BOTH going to be at RISK tonight! However, I COULD choose to save YOU and get you closer to the Final Three!” Marlene says: “I’m not making a deal with YOU, you’re the BAD guy! I heard what you SAID about Zarbon, and how you’ve been leading him on! What if I TOLD him what I heard you SAID?! Do you think that ZARBON will listen to you THEN?!” Bulma chuckles deviously and she says: “I KNEW you were going to prove troublesome from the moment you stepped FOOT on the plane! Why do you think I’ve been working so HARD to try to separate YOU, from Skipper?! I just KNEW that as long as you weren’t FOCUSED on Skipper, you wouldn’t be focused on the game, allowing ME and Zarbon to skate THROUGH the game without trouble! But every time Skipper started to poke his BEAK where it didn’t BELONG, I had to engineer ways to get RID of him! King Julian was a USEFUL idiot in getting Skipper to lose his focus the FIRST time, while TRICKING Skipper through Taotie, that Spongebob was going to be the OBVIOUS under the radar winner of the season, was all it took to get Skipper to go AFTER Spongebob!” Marlene scowls and angrily says: “You’re a VILE woman!” Bulma says: “Maybe so. But as I warned Gonard, it’s MY word against YOUR word! And I think we both KNOW who would WIN in an argument between YOU and me; the one with the most BRAINS! And I don’t think you can match ME in a WAR of the WORDS! Now, I plan to WIN that $44.44 million, with or WITHOUT your help!” Marlene asks: “What do you even WANT with the money?! You’re already RICH!!!!” Bulma scoffs and says: “Poor, simple, fool! It’s not the money I’M after! I’m after a much BIGGER fish! I have a ‘thing’ that I need to have taken care of, and the only way I’m going to DO that is by WINNING first place!” Marlene asks: “What ‘thing’ do you need taken care of?” Bulma says: “That’s NOT your concern! Let’s just say that WHEN this season is over, nobody will EVER make fun of ME or my name EVER again!” Marlene asks: “Why would people make fun of you?!” Bulma seriously says: “Don’t ask questions you DON’T want to know the answers to! Now, we can either do this one of two ways; a carrot or a stick approach. You can either go for the carrot; and you will split the money with me 50/50 REGARDLESS of who wins, or I can use the stick, and I will have ZARBON make your life UTTERLY miserable! Either way, I’m going to get farther than YOU in this season of the game!” Marlene seriously says: “You won’t get ANY money once Skipper and Captain Retro are THROUGH with you!”

Bulma gets RED in the face and looks about ready to SCREAM, but she calms down and says: “Very well, then! You won’t GO for the carrot, then it’s going to have to be the stick! It’s no longer simply enough for me to simply DESTROY Skipper, because there are things SO much WORSE than DEATH!!!!”

(Confessional) Bulma angrily says: “UGH!!!! How DARE she refuse me?! ME?!!! After ALL the lying and CONNIVING that I went THROUGH to get her to trust ME?!!! I gave her a chance to SAVE herself, and she SPITS it in my FACE!!!! NOBODY spits in the face of Bulma Briefs and gets AWAY with it! Marlene is going to find her plans to get any FURTHER in the game completely RUINED by what I’m going to have Zarbon DO against HER!!!!” / Marlene says: “Bulma can try whatever she wants; I am NOT going to betray Skipper! And I would LOVE to see Bulma TRY to ruin MY life OR Skipper’s! What else could she possibly THROW at me?!” (End Confessional) Bulma whispers to Zarbon, and she says: “She refused the deal. When this challenge is over, execute Plan 66!” Zarbon gladly says: “With PLEASURE!!!!” General Barracuda says: “Bulma and Zarbon, it’s time to TRY again!” Bulma says: “And I’m SUCCEEDING this time!” Bulma lowers the curtains, and utilizing the exact SAME trick that Patrick used, Bulma manages to release the trap-door, and raises the curtain, to REVEAL Zarbon WITHOUT a panther in the glass box! And Zarbon is also HOLDING the voting stamps for Bulma and Zarbon! General Barracuda says: “And Bulma and Zarbon are successful! Now you get to choose which one of you gets immunity!” Bulma says: “Zarbon, I NEED immunity for tonight!” Zarbon says: “But I’ll be put at RISK!!!!” Bulma says: “You WON’T be at risk if you’re successful with our plan!” Zarbon says: “I’m putting a LOT of faith in you on this! You BEST be right!” Bulma asks: “Have I ever NOT been right?!” Zarbon says: “I can’t think of a single instance!” Bulma says: “Than you KNOW that you can TRUST me! Do you TRUST me?” Zarbon doesn’t even BLINK, and he says: “More than ANYONE else in the whole Universe!” Bulma says: “Than go, and ENSURE Marlene’s elimination and Skipper’s HUMILIATION!” And Zarbon leaves for the plane! General Barracuda says: “Even though it’s a moot point, you STILL need to perform the magic trick correctly!” Skipper says: “Marlene, what is Zarbon going to do? Did you refuse Bulma?” Marlene says: “In response to your first question, I don’t know. To your second question, I had to.” Skipper says: “Well, I won’t argue with you there. But just WHY did you refuse Bulma?” Marlene says: “Money is no longer important to me this season. All I’m interested in is seeing justice served where justice NEEDS to be served!” (Confessional) Skipper says: “Marlene is FULL of fire today and eager to impress me! Her determination and my skills are all that we need to WIN this game! I just hope that we can pull it off together!” / Marlene says: “Bulma HAS to be stopped! I don’t care what ‘thing’ she has to take care of, but it can’t be WORTH ruining the lives of nearly every single contestant that Bulma has PROBABLY been responsible for eliminating! Bulma has to know that the ends do NOT justify the means! Bulma’s going to find out the hard way that by eliminating ME, she’s going to unleash the elimination BEAST that IS Skipper!” (End Confessional) Zarbon sneaks onto the plane, and breaks into the Editing Room on the “Total Cartoon Global Cruise” plane again! Zarbon puts in SEVERAL episode discs, plays through them, and using his editing skills, does some unseen photoshop tricks, and prints the results RIGHT onto bright, glossy photographs! Zarbon chuckles and says: “Poor, simple Marlene! When Bulma WANTS someone to FALL, they will ALWAYS Fall!”

And inexplicably, dramatic musical stings are played as Bulma walks ONTO the plane, and Zarbon chuckles as he KNOWS it can only mean ONE thing! During this sequence, Bulma envisions all KINDS of terrible things happening to Skipper and Marlene! / Genre: Broadway. Song: “Big and Loud, Part Two.” Sung by: Bulma and Zarbon. / Bulma: “I didn't get where I am today, by letting myself get pushed around! No man nor beast or otter or penguin is going to drag me down!” Zarbon laughs! Bulma: “The lightning will be flashing! The thunder, it will roar! They will never know what hit them! Wait until they see what I have in store! Big and Loud!! It's gonna be big and Loud!” Zarbon laughs! Bulma: “When they fall, they'll really fall!” Zarbon laughs! Bulma: “And they're gonna fall big!” Zarbon laughs! Bulma: “And they're gonna fall loud!” Zarbon laughs! Bulma: “They're gonna fall big, and they’re gonna FALL…” Zarbon laughs! Bulma: “Shut up, ZARBON!!!! LOUD!!!!” / And the dramatic number ends! /

The action shifts back to Marlene and Skipper, and Marlene has just successfully finished her Magic Trick! General Barracuda says: “And it’s over! The challenge is all over! Everyone back to the plane! It’s time to reveal just WHO has immunity for tonight’s elimination ceremony!” / Everyone is back at the plane, and Sniz says: “Okay, I will announce the contestants who have won immunity. Captain Retro and Wally, Suzie and Patrick, Reggie Rocket, and Bulma Briefs. That means that tonight, only Skipper, Marlene, Dudley, Chameleon, Rocko, and Zarbon have a chance to be voted off! Everyone else is safe!” Zarbon raises his hand, and Sniz asks: “Do you have a question?” Zarbon slyly says: “No, but I do have SOME important PHOTOS from Blonda that she WANTED to SHARE with everybody, but she wasn’t able to DO it before she was eliminated! She acquired these WHILE she was watching the show, and while she was on it! I would like to SHOW these photos to EVERYONE here, and show EVERYONE the kind of WOMAN that Marlene A. Otter REALLY is!!!!” And Zarbon passes out the photos, and nearly EVERYONE except Captain Retro gasps in SHOCK!!!! Bulma says: “Here is Marlene sleeping with Jimmy NEUTRON before the Japan Challenge!” Chameleon says: “Here is Marlene sleeping with Snaptrap AND Haggis McHaggis before the Idaho Challenge!” Reggie says: “Here is Marlene sleeping with TWISTER before the New York Challenge!” Patrick says: “Here is Marlene SLEEPING with Stanley S. Squarepants before the San Marino Challenge!” Dudley says: “Here is Marlene sleeping with KESWICK before the Bangkok Challenge!” Zarbon says: “Here is Marlene sleeping with Oonski AND Kaput before the INDIA challenge!” Suzie gasps and says: “Here’s Marlene sleeping with OTTO before the Mount Everest Challenge!!!!” Rocko says: “Here’s Marlene sleeping with HEFFER and SANJAY before the Russia Challenge!!!!” Sniz says: “And here’s MARLENE, sleeping with, ME BEFORE the Rio de Janeiro Challenge?!” Katie screams: “She did WHAT?!!!” Sniz says: “OOPS!!!!” Katie screams: “I can’t BELIEVE YOU!!!! Sleeping with some…FLOOZY that’s slept with nearly every single GUY on the plane?!” Skipper protests and says: “You can’t BUY this! Zarbon already PULLED this same stunt BACK in the Colorado Challenge!” Katie says: “So it’s been going on for a WHILE, now!” Captain Retro says: “And don’t forget, during MOST of those challenges, she was in a RELATIONSHIP with ME!!!!” Zarbon says: “That’s PRECISELY the point I’m proving!” Captain Retro suddenly claps his hands over his mouth, REALIZING the intention of Zarbon’s ploy! (Confessional) Captain Retro blushes, and says: “I walked RIGHT into that one! Not one of my PROUDER moments as a contestant!” / Bulma chuckles deviously and says: “See what happens when you REFUSE me, MARLENE?!!! I can utterly DESTROY you AND your time as a CONTESTANT!!!! Let’s see you survive THIS Elimination Ceremony!” / Skipper angrily says: “Bulma, you have UTTERLY crossed the LINE this time! If Marlene doesn’t survive tonight, you will SUFFER every BIT of my penguin WRATH!!!!” / Zarbon chuckles and says: “If at FIRST you don’t succeed, go BIGGER and BETTER, I always say!” / Suzie says: “Now that I think about it, I always HAVE been suspicious about Marlene, and her motives of trying to buddy up with everybody! It’s obviously ALL been a PLOY to get CLOSE with the guys, gain their trust, and when they LEAST suspect it, DUMP them at their first convenience! And poor little Otto fell for it! How dare SHE use HER beauty like that?! Well Marlene, you may be one pretty otter, but you just made one UGLY enemy out of me; you are GONE!!!!” (End Confessional)

Captain Retro looks at the photo Zarbon gave HIM, and he simply tears it up! Zarbon asks: “What’s WRONG, Captain Retro? Don’t like the TRUTH that Marlene was just using YOU, to?!” Captain Retro scoffs and says: “Marlene sleeping together with SPONGEBOB?! Even HAYDEN wouldn’t BUY that; and Hayden voted for STUMP to be the President of the Nickelodeon Studio Company!” Zarbon asks: “Hayden voted for STUMP to be the President of the Nickelodeon Stuido Company?” (Flashback) Hayden says: “Yoo-hoo! Look at me! I’m voting for the President! Yoo-hoo! Look at me! I’m pushing the WRONG button!” (End flashback!) Bulma yells: “HAYDEN!!!!”

Katie angrily says: “As of right NOW, Sniz! You and I are THROUGH!!!! Do you hear me, THROUGH?!” Sniz says: “Then you are OFF of the plane! I will NOT allow you to lounge in the V.I.P. Lounge anymore!” Katie angrily says: “Fine!!!!” Katie walks a few feet, and she turns around and says: “By the way, Captain Retro; when you are out of the contest, consider looking me up. I’ve just become VERY available!” Captain Retro romantically says: “I’ll be SURE to keep that in mind!” And Katie walks towards the Mirage Hotel. Sniz crosses his arms and says: “Well, I hope you’re HAPPY, Marlene! You have just thoroughly RUINED my LIFE!!!!” Marlene protests and says: “But I didn’t sleep with ANY of them! REALLY!!!!” Sniz says: “However, unlike you, I won’t just RUIN your life without even WARNING you about it, you’ll get to sweat it out and see how your fellow contestants FEEL about you! We’ll see just how forgiving they are of this new found evidence, and whether they’ll be willing to save you!” / The plane is in transit, and everyone is at the Elimination Ceremony. Sniz says: “Time to award bags of popcorn to the contestants who have immunity. Captain Retro and Wally, Suzie and Patrick, Reggie Rocket, and Bulma Briefs!” Sniz gets on his cell phone and asks: “Is it ETHICAL for me to promise BONUS goodies to whoever votes OFF Marlene?! I can’t?!” Sniz hangs up and says: “Well, I tried! Seeing as how you don’t have any actual INCENTIVE for doing so, it’s all up to you as to how you vote tonight! And remember, you can only vote for a contestant who doesn’t have immunity right now! So, get in there and VOTE!”

(Confessional) Captain Retro stamps Zarbon’s passport. Captain Retro says: “Zarbon, this is by FAR, the FILTHIEST move you’ve EVER pulled on Bulma’s behalf, bar NONE!!!!” / Zarbon stamps Marlene’s passport. Zarbon chuckles deviously and says: “Thank you for ALL that sleeping footage with Captain Retro that I could so EASILY splice with other contestants! I wish I could say that I WILL remember you; but you’re not as pretty as me, so I won’t!” / Bulma stamps Marlene’s passport. Bulma says: “Don’t MESS with the master if you DON’T want to get BURNED!!!!” / Marlene stamps Zarbon’s passport. Marlene angrily says: “Zarbon, I SWEAR one day you will PAY for this! Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, maybe not even next week! But you’ll pay for it SOMEDAY, and THEN for the REST of your LIFE!!!!” / Skipper angrily stamps Zarbon’s passport continually, until gorillas Bada and Bing have to physically PRY Skipper out of the Confessional so that someone else can use it! / Chameleon stamps Marlene’s passport. Chameleon says: “I’m sorry, but at this rate, you’ll sleep with DUDLEY next! It’s nothing personal!” / Dudley stamps Marlene’s passport. Dudley says: “You messed up BIG time! You HAVE to go!” / Reggie sighs and stamps Zarbon’s passport. Reggie says: “I sure hope I’m not making the SAME mistake that I made when I chose to NOT vote off Angelica Pickles!” / Suzie angrily stamps Marlene’s passport. Suzie says: “Maybe now, you can APOLOGIZE to everyone you’ve ever SLEPT to, to their FACES!!!!” / Patrick stamps Marlene’s passport. Patrick says: “I’m sorry, but I have to vote for someone! And the evidence surrounding you is just too SUSPICIOUS! Please don’t take it personally!” / Wally thinks about it, and STAMPS Marlene’s passport! Wally says: “I’m not doing this because of the photos I’ve seen, I’m doing this because you DID lie to Captain Retro before! I’m NOT going to let you do it AGAIN!” / Rocko stamps Zarbon’s passport, and Rocko says: “Heffer would’ve TOLD me if he had been SLEEPING with anyone; let alone, Marlene! Zarbon is the only obvious choice that I can vote for!” (End Confessional) Sniz says: “Voting is over! It’s time to see who ELSE will receive a bag of popcorn! Rocko! Dudley, Chameleon, Skipper!” And Zarbon GASPS when he realizes for the first time in a LONG time, HE is on the Bottom Two! Sniz says: “The two of you have had a LONG, troubling time this season, for one reason or another! But now, ONE of you will be seeing their GAME come to an end! The question is, who?!” (Confessional) Marlene chuckles confidently and says: “Come on! I have too much of a good relationship with everyone here! Everybody LIKES me! They’d NEVER vote me OFF!” / Zarbon says: “I’m far too PRETTY to ever BE voted off! They better NOT have voted ME off!!!!” (End Confessional) Sniz says: “The Final Bag of Popcorn, will be going to the contestant who most deserves it! With that being said, the Final Bag of Popcorn, goes to…(Dramatic music builds up and swells)…ZARBON!!!!”

Skipper yells: “WHAT?!!!” Bulma says: “YES!!!!” Captain Retro asks: “HOW?!!!” Marlene despairs and says: “NO!!!! I thought I was doing so well!” Sniz says: “Sorry, Marlene! You played with fire, and you finally got BURNED!!!! It was a 7-5 vote against you, and it looks like Wally was the Swing Vote!” Marlene says: “And to THINK I thought that I wanted to ADOPT you!” Wally says: “That vote wasn’t about YOU, it was about your LIE to Captain Retro! Maybe from now on, you’ll think TWICE before you ever LIE again!” Marlene grabs her parachute, and Marlene says: “I might have told that ONE lie, but someone has been lying to YOU all season long! They have ESPECIALLY been lying to Zarbon! And Zarbon, you better believe me when I say, you won’t be happy when you discover the AWFUL truth about Bulma! And if my suspicions are correct, you won’t have too long to wait! Just remember, the fate of the Final Three is now in MY hands, and all those contestants you’ve said I SLEPT with, Zarbon; they KNOW the truth! And they WILL vote with me against you even if you COULD make it to the Final Three! And the same goes true for Bulma!” Bulma indifferently says: “That is nice, so sorry it means you still lost!” Marlene angrily says: “Believe me, you are going to be decimated, LOSER!!!!” And Marlene jumps OUT of the plane before Bulma can GRAB Marlene and attempt to STRANGLE her for the INSULT!!!! Bulma shouts: “And I hope your parachute FAILS on the way down!” / Sniz is in the cockpit, but he’s crying over Katie. General Barracuda says: “Sorry folks, Sniz is still in mourning, so it looks like I have to do the end of the episode announcement. One more contestant has left, and eleven more contestants remain! We have a very special Performance Review next time, to celebrate our 100^th episode! Stay tuned for the festivities, on Total Cartoon Global Cruise! I sure hope Sniz cheers up by then.” /

Epilogue: Captain Retro is in the storage room, and with nothing more than a green guitar, sings about the relationship he once had with Marlene, singing his rocking version of a Sheryl Crow hit song! / Genre: Blues Rock. Sub-genre: Sheryl Crow. Song: “My Favorite Mistake.” Sung by: Captain Retro! / Captain Retro: “Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! I woke up and called this morning, the tone of your voice was a warning; that you don't care for me anymore. I made up the bed I sleep in. I looked at the clock when you creeped in. It's 6 A.M. and I'm alone. Did you know, when you go it's the perfect ending, to the bad day, I was just beginning. When you go, all I know is you're my favorite mistake. Now, your friends are sorry for me. They watch you pretend to adore me. But I am no fool to this game. Now here comes your secret lover, he will be unlike any other, until your guilt goes up in flames. Did you know, when you go it's the perfect ending, to the bad day, I'd gotten used to spending. When you go, all I know is you're my favorite mistake. You're my favorite mistake. Well maybe nothing lasts forever, even when you stay together. I don't need forever after, but it's your laughter, that won't let me go; so I won’t live on this way! Hey! (Guitar solo) Now, did you know, could you tell, you were the only one that I ever loved? Now everything's so wrong. Now, did you see me walking by; did it ever make you cry? Now, you're my favorite mistake. Yeah, you're my favorite mistake! You're my favorite mistake!” / And the Epic song ends. / Episode Notes: Marlene is FINALLY eliminated in this episode. With her elimination, every single contestant from season two has now been eliminated at least ONCE! Skipper is now the ONLY representative LEFT from “The Penguins of Madagascar.” Katie, the Girl from Ipanema, breaks up with Sniz in this episode and leaves the “Total Cartoon Global Cruise” plane. Featured songs in this episode are “Abracadabra, Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now” (also part of the episode title), “Big and Loud, Part Two,” and “My Favorite Mistake.” Bulma makes a cryptic remark to why she has been doing everything she has done this season in order to win, saying that she has a ‘thing’ that she needs to have taken care of. The issue will be brought up again in a future episode. /

Personal Notes: Eliminating Marlene as a contestant? Yeah, that hurt for me. Especially because I really LIKE the woman who voices Marlene (Nicole Sullivan), and that’s one of the reasons that I have utilized Marlene as much as I have done from the start of season two until now. Initially, I WANTED to carry on Marlene’s story from last season, by having her go all the way to the Final Three again.

This time, however, I had planned on giving Marlene the win! But after the Last Performance Review, Marlene’s game play became derailed, as the truth FINALLY came to light for Captain Retro, and she got back together with Skipper. Although Marlene got her love life back on track, it significantly HURT her game playing prowess in the process, and Bulma took FULL advantage of that! Ironically, it turned out that Marlene’s biggest strength in season two; her ability to play the “Flirt” card, ended up to turn out to be her biggest WEAKNESS this season! And Marlene was brought down not because she didn’t love enough, she ended up loving too much. I admit, this season has been full of mistakes that have been made on my part, trying to figure out what worked and what didn’t. And I personally never believed that there COULD be such a thing as a favorite mistake; but out of all the mistakes I have made this season, temporarily hooking up Marlene with Captain Retro was my favorite. If nothing else, it did give Captain Retro and Marlene degrees of complexity that they never had before. / That’s my episode idea for today! Enough said, true believers!

Instead of the usual show open, FIREWORKS are exploding, and confetti and glitter DROP through the air! And in very FANCY C.G.I. letters, the words Total Cartoon Global Cruise: Performance Review 100^th Episode Spectacular! Come on-screen, and they are followed by scenes from some of the past episodes of “Total Cartoon Global Cruise!” /

Jimmy Neutron says: "Aerophobia, as it's commonly called, as opposed to aeronauseophobia, which is the fear of getting air-sickness!" Dib sarcastically says: "Yeah, well state one MORE useless fact like THAT and I'M going to get aeronauseous all OVER you, pal!" / Tigress incredulously replies: “HEY! Nobody needs to be reminded that I am a girl!” / Bulma scoffs and says: "SMARTEST?!!! That's HIGHLY debatable!" / Reggie says: "You heard him! Yadda YADDA!!!!" / Kitty says: "I do NOT get distracted by a--" (Bulma reflects light off of her Dragon Radar) Kitty excitedly says: "A magic ray of light! Come back here!" / Monster protests: "But, people will see our BUSINESS!!!!" Zarbon coldly asks: "Is that a PROBLEM; MISS?!!!" / Captain Retro, unsure, asks: "Po, do you and Tigress EVER make out?!" Tigress answers: "All the time!!!!" / Captain Retro points to a far-off mountain and says: "Want to see me run to the top of that mountain and back?!" Captain Retro doesn't APPEAR to move, then asks: "Want to see me do it again in slow motion?!" / Taotie unleashes a morning star and says: "Prepare to be VANQUISHED!" Spongebob says: "I said that once." / Bulma says: "Don't give me THAT!!!! I happen to be a TRUE size ZERO, for your information!!" / General Barracuda says: "That's funny!" Sniz says: "Funny, as in 'ha-ha' funny? Or funny as in, ‘uh-oh, we might all DIE’ funny?!!!" / Treeflower asks: "And you couldn't THINK to swap Angelica's personality with something a little nicer? Like a honey badger?!" Angelica sarcastically says: "Ho-ho, very funny! Ha-ha, it IS to laugh!" / Tigress, unable to keep composure any longer, finally blurts out: "You IDIOT!!!! I am a GIRL!!!!" Twister asks: "Wait! You're a WHAT?!!!" / Treeflower excitedly says: "I'm pregnant!!!!" Norbert yells so loud that everyone ELSE at the Dow Villa Motel can HEAR: "YES!!!!" / Kitty angrily says: "OH!!!! So you're FUNNY now?! Do you WANT me to show you something REALLY funny?!!!" / Harvey says: "I think Haggis has a lot of spunk, even if he's probably older than MY dad! Come to think of it, I'm not even sure HOW old Haggis IS! He must be at least like...40!!!!" / Angelica snidely says: "You said 'potatoes' TWICE!!!!" / Reggie angrily screams: "I AM THE QUEEN OF CHILL!!!! Can you not SEE the CHILL emanating from my FACE?!!!" / Captain Retro shouts: "ANGELICA!!!! Did you WISH for Haggis to be HIT by lightning if it turned OUT that you WEREN'T going to make it to the Final THREE?!!!" Angelica says: "Coincidence!" / Patrick says: "I'm terrible at keeping secrets!" / General Barracuda defiantly says: "I LIKE running ducks!!!!" Sway-Sway seriously says: "TURN!!!!" / Dib screams: "We're going to die! We're going to DIE!!!! I'm going to throw up, and then we're going to die!!!!" / Marlene, at first, calmly and quietly says: "Angelica, I will say this in the calmest, nicest, most sincere, quietest way I possibly can!!" Than Marlene loses it and EXPLODES, SHOUTING: "YOU KICKED THE FREAKING PENDANT OF LIFE OUT OF THE PLANE!!!!" / Daggett says: "I'm sorry! Was that too complicated an insult for you?! I'll try dumbing it DOWN to YOUR level! DUH!!!!" / Angelica seriously says: "You're coming with ME, or I'll SCREAM!!!!! AHHH!!!! AHHH!!!!" / Angelica screams: "You DON'T GET TO CHEER!!!" / Robot angrily shouts: "You guys just SHUT UP!!!!!" Angelica screams: "You don't GET to tell us to shut UP!!!!" / Globitha says: "Ooh!

I'll get it!" / Phoebe sighs and says: "Just keep the bread-sticks coming." / Daggett says: “For the record, Old Man Jenkins was SPOOTY!” / Skipper looks seriously and asks: "Plan Patrick?" / Daggett sings: "Can't understand just what does, he say?!" / Bulma says: "Shut up! We STILL have a seven!" / Sniz says: "Well folks, it seems as though we're experiencing some technical difficul--." (BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) /

Dog shouts: "Hi CAT!!!! I always WANTED to say that on this show!" / Spongebob asks: "Why does just about EVERYBODY have a driver's license but ME?!!! It just doesn't seem FAIR!!!!" / Taotie groans and screams: "Doesn't ANYBODY care what I'm SAYING or what I THINK?!!!!" / Craig weakly replies: "I dood it...with my FACE!!!!" / Chameleon says: "We're even starting to finish each others...!" Dudley and Chameleon respectively say: "Sandwiches/Sentences!!!!" / Dudley asks: "Why did I say SANDWICHES?!!! How would THAT even work in context?!!! I don't know; I panicked, I guess!" / Skipper rolls his eyes and says: "Maybe you didn't HEAR me; I SAW IT IN A GERMAN MOVIE!!!!" / Fondue angrily says: "Nobody, say the word, 'DOOR', to ME!!!!" / Otto SCREAMS: "I NEED TO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" /

Otto disguises his voice and says: "Call him and tell him you love him!!!!" Suzie says: "Get off the phone, Otto!" Otto forgets himself and says: "I'm not on the PHONE...D'OH!!!!" Everyone else says: "GET OFF THE PHONE!!!!" / Suzie sniffles and says: "Otto, you big, dumb JERK!!!!" / Bulma sarcastically retorts: "Oh; 'Just cake? JUST CAKE?!!!' I GAINED ten OUNCES just by TOUCHING it!!!!" / Robot, bewildered, asks: "WHAT?!!! Does she, like, have some CREEPY wedding dress RADAR installed in her BODY?!!!" / Globitha says: "I KNEW getting that CREEPY wedding dress radar installed in my body was a GOOD idea! Thank YOU, Ogo!!!!" / General Barracuda announces: "Attention passengers; we are about to descend and land in Nepal. Nice, quiet, Nepal. In the very LIKELY event of a crash landing due to these white-out conditions; crouch down, put your head under your knees, and kiss your BUTT good-bye, if you can!!!!" / Bulma shouts: “Are you CRAZY?!!!” / Fondue says: "I HATE my LIFE!!!!" / Heffer gets big puppy eyes, and delighted, asks: "ME?!!! I'm an AUDIENCE favorite?!!!" / Zarbon rolls his eyes and loudly asks: "Can't a blue-skinned alien get a moment of PEACE to make himself PRETTIER?!!!" / Zarbon groans and says: "You're just DETERMINED to have it YOUR way, aren't you?!" / Tigress asks: "I trust that there will be no one on this team EVER doubting MY abilities again?!" / Tigress mutters to herself: "Pummel Spongebob, Pummel Taotie, wash shirt..." / Zarbon says: "I was just imagining a square shaped hole, where your so-called BRAIN is supposed to be!" Taotie scoffs and says: "I KNOW what you were IMAGINING!!!!" / Kaput's eyes open wildly as he shouts: "MONEY!!!! Canceling all thoughts of dignity and pride in my mind! I'll do it!" / Buhdeuce says: "I know ALL the video game tricks! Up, up, down, down, left, right, A, B, Start!" (And a fifty extra lives counter appears above Buhdeuce!) Buhdeuce chuckles and says: "Works like a charm!" / Taotie groans, rolls his eyes and says: "Somewhere in heaven, Chuck Jones is LAUGHING his head off!" / Bulma mimics Gonard and says: "Oh, I'm sorry! But I have unnatural friendly feelings for Buhdeuce and King Julien, that may or may NOT involve ME being bi-sexual, so I'm going to completely disregard my FICTIONAL chance of ever getting to first base with you, and completely SCREW you over!" / Tigress angrily says: “BUTT out, you future McRib SANDWICH!!!! Or do you want to become a Pork Kabob?!” / Blonda screams: "I was ROBBED!!!!" / Skipper says: "That Super NES emblem that is Team Retro has been number one for too long! It's time we take it DOWN a notch!" Monster says: "I'm not so sure you can! Nothing can beat the Super NES, not even the Playstation One! And it tried harder than anything!" / Phoebe face-palms herself and says: "STUPID!!!! Why did I have to ask such a STUPID question?! Sniz ALWAYS has an answer for everything!" / Norbert says: “And by 'simple,' you mean 'painful' and quite possibly, 'life-threatening.'” / Bulma says: “Seriously, Blonda would have to use some kind of SLIDE rule in order to prevail in THIS challenge!” / Bulma asks: “How can YOU eat during a challenge like THIS?!” / Po shouts: “Hey! You CAN'T use licorice sticks for EVIL!” / The appearance of Anti-Timmy looks even WORSE than it did before; as Anti-Timmy has lost his shoes, his hat, most of his hair has fallen off, his skin is ALL green, warty, and wrinkly, his eyes look CRAZED and maniacal, his feet and hands look like CLAWS, and his ears are all pointy and disease ridden! Reggie screams: “Cancel him! Cancel him, cancel him; cancel him; cancel him!!!! Oh, for the LOVE of all things good and holy, CANCEL HIM!!!!” / Po sputters and shouts: “You BROKE Taotie AGAIN!!!! Fix him, NOW!!!!” / Bulma says: “Well, I can't HELP that I DO know it all!” / Anti-Timmy yells: “It burns us! It BURNS us!!!!” /

Captain Retro asks: “Marlene, are you still HAPPY being with me?” Marlene says: “Of course I am! You're all I think about!” / Taotie angrily asks: “Now, where do YOU get off?! Trying to throw ME off?! I'll have you know, I've faced odds MUCH tougher than--!!!!” (PUNCH!!!! PUNCH!!!! POW!!!!) And Taotie is LITERALLY booted out of the plane! / Captain Retro gets disgusted and asks: “Is THAT all I've BEEN to you? Some kind of galactic CHEAT sheet?!” / Marlene angrily says: “You and I are SO over!!!! You can TAKE your STUPID powers and SHOVE them up your BUTT! I'm OUT!!!! Watch ME win WITHOUT you and your STUPID help!!!!” Marlene storms out of the V.I.P. Lounge angrily, and Captain Retro just stands there, baffled. Captain Retro shouts: “Well, NEXT time, break someone's HEART all at ONCE instead of piece by piece, why don't you?!” / Sniz rolls his eyes and says: “I hate it when losers get clingy.” / Marlene says: “From now on, let's no longer make mistakes with others. Let's make mistakes together.” / Daggett pouts and says: “A spooty jungle, AGAIN?! We just got THROUGH going through a spooty jungle!” / Bulma whispers: “BE the VILLAIN that everyone KNOWS you are, and MY love will be FOREVER yours! You know you want it. Just say YES!” Zarbon BARELY blinks and says: “I love you.” Bulma smiles and says: “I know.” / Captain Retro sighs happily and says: “I LOVE being a Nicktoon!” / Bulma says: “Zarbon, Po, do what you are best at! Everyone else, can just stand around and make ME look prettier and WAY smarter than the rest of you by comparison!” / Daggett says: “I am SICK and TIRED of YOU bossing everyone around with your big, fat, MOUTH!!!!” Bulma twitches and she angrily says: “Like, WHAT DID YOU SAY?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” / Patrick says: “I am not that dumb!” /

Blonda screams: “Did you try to KILL me?!” Zarbon chuckles and says: “Kill you?! You're TOO good for THAT! I was only trying to MAIM or seriously INJURE you!!!!” / Captain Retro says: “It's a LEGENDARY Cross-over Battle!” / Emperor Mavro screams: “My EMPIRE!!!! MY DESTINY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” / Bulma screams: “I am a VERY delicate FLOWER!!!! I'm not some PSYCHO junkie who gets their KICKS blowing up PSYCHO freaks!” / Marlene says: “I wasn't AWARE Rosa Parks was on this plane!” / Gonard sputters and shouts: “Why does EVERYONE assume that I don't KNOW anything about GIRLS?! I mean, BESIDES the fact that I've NEVER actually DATED one!” / Bulma rolls her eyes and SERIOUSLY says: “Seriously? Trust me, Anti-Timmy is STILL on the plane!” / Skipper loudly yells: “WHAT is the MEANING of THIS?!” / Skipper whispers: “All right. Then I guess you should--” And Skipper EXPLODES and loses it, screaming: “SHUT UP and DO what I SAY!!!!” / Suzie groans and screams: “I should have DEFINITELY never gone zip-lining!” / Patrick says: “For anyone keeping score at home, that's IRONY 2, Skipper ZERO!” / Patrick moans and yells: “I should have DEFINITELY never gone OXEN riding!” / Skipper face-palms himself and yells: “BECAUSE I FORGOT my BAZOOKA at HOME!” Patrick SERIOUSLY asks: “You HAVE a BAZOOKA?!” Skipper says: “I'm not even going to ANSWER that one!” / Patrick moans and yells: “We should have DEFINITELY never gone BOAT riding!” / Skipper says: “It's no use SCREAMING at a time like this, nobody can HEAR us!” Than Skipper frantically cries: “HELP!! HELP!! HELP!!” / Bulma protests: “You've GOT to be KIDDING me!” / Bulma SCREAMS: “Get me OUT of HERE, NOW!!!!” / Bulma yells: “You IMBECILE!!!! How DARE you ENDANGER yourself by putting yourself into a position that I can't HELP you out of?! Do you KNOW what I would have to do if I DIDN'T have you?! I'd have to actually...like...SOCIALIZE with these LOSERS!!!!” / General Barracuda yells: “Come ON!!!! Right in my FACE!!!! Now NOTHING is going to sound RIGHT!” / Marlene gasps and exclaims: “You think I'm HILARIOUS?!” / Bulma says: “IF everyone PROMISES not to groan upon hearing me speak, I have a plan of action I'd like to share!” / Dog asks: “And what do I do?” Bulma seriously THINKS about it, and says: “YOU...can be, President of the back of the Train! / Zarbon yells: “None of your BUSINESS, you Futurama REJECT!!!!” / Jenny angrily yells: “Does THIS scare YOU?!!!” / Po angrily says: “You have HAD this coming for the ENTIRE season, ZARBON!!!!” And with a MASSIVE left hook, Po hits Zarbon DIRECTLY in his left eye, causing him to WINCE in gut-wrenching PAIN!!!! Zarbon nervously gets out a mirror, and he is HORRIFIED by how he now LOOKS! Zarbon gasps and nervously asks: “My FACE?! What happened to my face?! YOU BROKE MY FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH, NO!!!!!!!!! MY POOR FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” /

Zarbon, wearing the eye-patch over his left eye, angrily says: “Mark my words, today is the first, LAST, and ONLY day that ANYONE, especially PO, will be ABLE to punch MY face!” / Reggie says: “People who PLAN horrible betrayals, will almost ALWAYS see their best laid plans go up in flames! Mark my words, nothing GOOD is going to happen to Bulma!” / Chameleon says: “MAN!!!! Everybody seems to be getting uptight the closer we get to the Final Five!” / Patrick says: “You know what I would do with a $44.44 million payday? I'd paint my rock to be all golden. I like to keep my goals simple.” / General Barracuda, in relief, sighs and says: “Another landing, perfectly executed!” / Bulma angrily screams: “I am NOT ALWAYS YELLY AND SCREAMY!!!!” / Suzie groans and she says: “You have GOT to be KIDDING me!!!!” / Bulma romantically says: “Oh, Zarbon, you are ABSOLUTELY right! You are such a BIG, smart, GENIUS in my life!!!!” / Chameleon nervously asks: "Remind me, are armadillos normally vicious, or are they normally nice?!" The armadillos suddenly BARE sharp FANGS and claws at them, and Dog nervously answers: "Normally nice! They are DEFINITELY normally nice!" / Anti-Timmy scowls, and bitterly says: "YOU know what I want from this; I want the PRECIOUS!!!!" / Anti-Timmy exclaims: "I had EVERYTHING! She STOLE it from US!!" / Anti-Timmy scoffs and says: "Oh, PLEASE! Haven't you ever WONDERED how a NO-TALENT cartoon character like me has managed to survive sixteen years of constant cancellations?!" And suddenly, Anti-Timmy's LEFT hand turns into METAL liquid, flows BACK to Anti-Timmy, and reforms into a PERFECTLY formed left hand! / Chameleon asks: "You know that feeling you get when you realize that you actually CARE if someone you KNOW lives or dies? I didn't, until Dudley opened his heart to me. My safety is NOTHING compared to his! I HAVE to protect him! I owe him for THAT much!" / Zarbon defiantly says: "I'll NEVER give you the PRECIOUS!!!! I NEED it! I MUST become the most BEAUTIFUL being in the universe! Eternal beauty MUST be mine! It's MY destiny!" / Dudley smiles says: "I ALWAYS knew you were good inside!" / Marlene asks: “Why are the doors, all locked to me?!” / Captain Retro sighs and asks: “Do you HAVE to do EVERYTHING that Treeflower does?” / Chameleon says: “Oh, Dudley, I was so afraid the other day in El Salvador. I was worried you were going to get hurt!” Dudley says: “It means so much to me that you saved me, because I know now that your bad guy days are truly behind you.” / Bulma chuckles deviously and says: “I can’t BELIEVE how thoroughly gullible Zarbon is; he actually TRUSTS me, and he really BELIEVES we’re going to the Final Two together; the FOOL!!!!” Bulma doesn’t REALIZE that Marlene has just ENTERED into the Confessional behind her! Bulma says: “I’ve been leading Zarbon on since day ONE!!!! I’ve been fooling ALL of them, and they DON’T even suspect the TRUTH!!!! I’ll blindside ALL those fools, and get the money and fame I so GREATLY desire AND deserve! And NO one will EVER make fun of Bulma Briefs AGAIN!!!!” And Marlene ZOOMS out of there WITHOUT being seen! / Skipper’s eyes widen and says: “I can’t believe Bulma is THAT deceptive! Well, I CAN believe it! But it’s just so HARD to believe!” / Suzie groans, and says: “I sure hope Patrick doesn’t mess THIS magic challenge up!” / Patrick says: “I sure hope I don’t mess the magic challenge up!” / Suzie calls on her phone, and says: “Hey, Lil! $10 says that Patrick will try Plan Patrick!” On the phone, Lil says: “Make it $20!” Suzie says: “Deal!” / Zarbon protests: “Are you INSANE?! Patrick isn’t even PRETTY like me!” General Barracuda says: “Don’t hate the players, hate the game!” / Marlene scowls and angrily says: “You’re a VILE woman!” / Marlene seriously says: “You won’t get ANY money once Skipper and Captain Retro are THROUGH with you!” Bulma gets RED in the face and looks about ready to SCREAM, but she calms down and says: “Very well, then! You won’t GO for the carrot, then it’s going to have to be the stick! It’s no longer simply enough for me to simply DESTROY Skipper, because there are things SO much WORSE than DEATH!!!!” / Bulma asks: “Have I ever NOT been right?!” / Marlene stamps Zarbon’s passport. Marlene angrily says: “Zarbon, I SWEAR one day you will PAY for this! Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, maybe not even next week! But you’ll pay for it SOMEDAY, and THEN for the REST of your LIFE!!!!” / Skipper yells: “WHAT?!!!” Bulma says: “YES!!!!” Captain Retro asks: “HOW?!!!” Marlene despairs and says: “NO!!!! I thought I was doing so well!” /

The clip footage finally ends, and the fancy C.G.I. Letters make a fancy exit off-screen. /

(This episode is dedicated to George Michael). The episode opens up properly, as Darwin and Eliza walk in, dressed in their fanciest clothes, to THUNDEROUS applause! Eliza says: “Welcome, EVERYONE, to our 100^th Episode SPECTACULAR!!!!” Darwin asks: “Isn’t it amazing? There are a good NUMBER of OTHER shows that might have called it QUITS by now!” Eliza says: “I know what you mean; they simply would’ve given up and ended things without giving ANY resolution whatsoever!” Darwin says: “But the folks and fans behind the Total Cartoon series are too stubborn to quit, which is why we would like to give a big shout-out and THANKS to our fans, for providing the inspiration for 100 episodes; and counting THIS episode, making 92 of those episodes be REALLY good ones!” Eliza says: “For those of you doing the math at home, that’s a 92% AVERAGE! I bet Family Guy WISHES they had THAT good of a batting average!” Darwin says: “We’ve got a LOT to celebrate this episode! We have our previously eliminated contestants in our celebrity panel, and we’re hosting from a VERY special location!” Eliza says: “That’s right! We are coming to you ALMOST live from the location of the Total Cartoon Global Cruise season finale, Hollywood, California!!!!” Darwin says: “Even though it will all end HERE in twelve more episodes, it is still ANYONES guess as to HOW it will end!” Eliza says: “Personally, I’m banking on Bulma’s MASSIVE ego and her inability to stay shut up for even a nano-second, to be her downfall!” Darwin says: “We also have some brand new contestants who have been eliminated since our LAST Performance Review, who will be joining us for interviews on this episode!” Eliza says: “That’s right! We have Taotie and Tigress!” Darwin says: “Randolph!” Eliza says: “Daggett and Norbert!” Darwin says: “All healed from the hospital, Gonard!” Eliza says: “Po, the Kung Fu Panda himself!” Darwin says: “Dog and Stimpy, the legendary contestants themselves!” Eliza says: “And the one contestant I REALLY wanted to win it all, Marlene!” Darwin says: “I’m still reeling, it just seems SO hard to accept this has HAPPENED!” Blonda gets irritated, and says: “Well, it happened! And it WOULDN’T have happened if I just HAD the $44.44 million that I was SUPPOSED to WIN!!!!” Dib Bitters yells: “Shut up! You’re HERE, you LOST, get over it!” Blonda asks: “Can I replace HIM with Mila Kunis?!” Eliza asks: “What is WITH you and Mila Kunis? You’re OBSESSED with Mila Kunis!” Blonda says: “Well, when they INEVITABLY make a big budget feature about The Fairly Oddparents starring YOURS truly, I want it known to EVERYONE that I want Mila Kunis to be FAST Tracked to portray ME on the big screen!” Zim groans, rolls his eyes, and says: “And I thought that I was the most deluded, pathetic case in this panel!” Darwin says: “IGNORING our Celebrity Fairy IRRITANT…” And Blonda sticks out her tongue and loudly says: “BLAH!!!!” Darwin continues: “We have also got some special SURPRISES in store, to help celebrate this 100^th Episode RIGHT! First, let’s introduce our first guests!” Eliza says: “They might have represented the same show, but they are on OPPOSITE sides of the justice coin!” Darwin says: “One is evil and UGLY, one is strong and VERY beautiful!” Eliza says: “Representing Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness, it is Taotie and Tigress!”

Taotie screams: “No, NO!!!! I don’t WANT to go out there with YOU, you can’t MAKE me go out there with YOU!” Tigress shouts: “Shut UP!!!! If I have to get interviewed, than YOU are getting interviewed WITH me!” (KICK!!!!) And Taotie is BOOTED on-screen, onto a comfy green couch. Tigress than walks on-screen, blowing kisses to the audience, as she wears her pretty, gold shirt. Tigress sits on the couch next to Darwin, smiling. Taotie gets irritated and says: “HMPH!!!! I get ALL the punches and kicks, and TIGRESS gets all the cheers and applause!” Tigress says: “Well, MAYBE if you had some thought and consideration to actually be KIND once in a while, Karma wouldn’t HATE you so bad!” Taotie says: “Shows what YOU know! I heard that my son, Bing Zao, is trying to trend; #Ican’tbelievemyfatheractuallyMADEtheteammerge!” Tigress says: “Well, my good FRIEND, Master Crane, is successfully trending; #IalwaysKNEWthatTigresswouldmaketheteammerge!” Taotie sarcastically says: “You ALWAYS have to one-up ME, don’t you?!” Tigress smirks and says: “Only on days that end with ‘Y’!” Taotie groans and says: “THANK you! I feel SO much BETTER! And THAT was SARCASM!!!!” Tigress sarcastically replies: “NO!!!! Really, do you THINK?!!!”

Taotie LOSES it and screams: “OH, MY GOD!!!! I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS MOTHERBLABBIN, GASAFRACKIN, TERRAMACKIN, BLASTERCRACKIN, FLAFFERMATTIN, SPEFFERSCRATTIN, RASAPACKIN, WRATHATERRIN, PERRAVERRIN, HAFFAGAFFIN, LASTAPLASTA, COUGHAHAFFA, NEEDLEWHACKIN, NO-GOOD MACHIAVELLIAN WITCH!!!!” And a loud ROAR of applause can be HEARD coming from the audience! Tigress merely GASPS in shock over hearing just exactly HOW Taotie TRULY feels about her, and she honestly replies: “I…LITERALLY…have NO way to follow that up!” Oonski says: “Don’t worry about it, nobody ever does!” Haggis says: “Harvey Beaks, that’s HOW you can tell someone is TRULY evil!!!! Instead of using ACTUAL swear words, they go OUT of their way to make up their OWN!!!!” Harvey says: “That’s good and informational for me to know!” Taotie sighs, and calms down, and says: “Sorry, I had a LOT of pent-up angst that I just HAD to get out of my system!” Darwin nervously says: “Understandable. Anyways, why do you think that you’re both out of the Competition?” Taotie says: “Simple, Tigress hates my guts and wanted me out just to SPITE me!” Tigress says: “I do NOT hate you, I simply don’t LIKE you performing all those evil deeds across the Valley of Peace in China! If you simply STOPPED acting all malevolent and a malcontent, you wouldn’t get your BUTT get kicked so often!” Taotie’s eyes light up in realization, and he says: “So you’re fighting me NOT because you hate me, but because of the evil things I’ve done?!” Tigress says: “That’s what it basically boils down to.” Taotie says: “I never REALIZED that! I SERIOUSLY need to go home and re-think my life and my priorities.” Tigress says: “You do that. In the meantime, I’m out of the competition because I CHOSE to be! If I had REALIZED that this was the thing that Zarbon and Bulma WANTED, I would’ve stayed in! But karma will catch up to Zarbon and Bulma; you BETTER believe that!” Eliza says: “I certainly do! Anyways, who are you rooting for to win now that you are out of the competition?” Taotie says: “It’s got to be Chameleon. He’s the only guy LEFT in the competition who isn’t PRETTY like the others!” Tigress says: “It’s got to be Reggie. She’s the only girl in the competition who has a CHANCE of running CIRCLES around Bulma Briefs!” Darwin says: “Thank you both, please take a seat!” Taotie takes a seat next to Kaput, and Taotie says: “Remind me to NEVER try to betray you in a competition AGAIN!” Kaput says: “Well, if you TRULY try to reform your ways, I think we can manage something.” And Tigress sits next to Twister, and Twister says: “I’m REALLY sorry I mistook you for a guy at first. Are we cool?” Tigress says: “I don’t get mad about little stuff anymore. I only save it for really BIG stuff, such as villain invasions!” Eliza says: “They might both be losers now, but they should meet some REAL losers, from the beginning of the competition!” Darwin says: “Some of our former contestants got together to make their own music videos/songs for this 100^th Episode Spectacular!” Eliza says: “Coming from Retroville, it is Jimmy Neutron, Timmy Turner, and Roger Klotz performing a hit song, originally by Beck!”

Genre: Alternative Rock. Sub-genre: Beck. Song: “Loser.” Sung by: Jimmy Neutron, Timmy Turner, and Roger Klotz! / Jimmy Neutron: “In the time of chimpanzees, I was a monkey. Butane in my veins, so I'm out to get the junkie with the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables. Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose. Kill the headlights, and put it in neutral, stock car flaming with a loser and the cruise control. Baby's in Reno with the vitamin D, got a couple of couches; sleep on the love seat, someone keeps saying I'm insane to complain about a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt. Don't believe everything that you breathe, you get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve. So shave your face with some mace in the dark, saving all your food stamps and burning down the trailer park.” Roger Klotz: “Yo, cut it.” Jimmy Neutron: “Soy un perdedor. I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?” Timmy Turner: “Double-barrel buckshot.” Jimmy Neutron: “Soy un perdedor. I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me? Forces of evil in a bozo nightmare, banned all the music with a phony gas chamber because one's got a weasel and the other's got a flag. One's on the pole, shove the other in a bag with the rerun shows and the phony nose-job. The daytime (distorted) of the folksinger slop, he hung himself with a guitar string. Slap the turkey-neck and it's hanging from a pigeon wing. You can't write if you can't relate. Trade the cash for the beef, for the body, for the hate, and my time is a piece of wax, falling on a termite who's choking on the splinters. Soy un perdedor. I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?” Timmy Turner: “Get crazy with the cheese whiz!” Jimmy Neutron: “Soy un perdedor. I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?” Roger Klotz: “Drive-by body-pierce! Yo, bring it on down!” Jimmy Neutron: “Soy, em likk uoy t’nod yhw os, ybab resol a m’I. rodedrep nu yoS. I'm a driver; I'm the winner; things are gonna change I can feel it. Soy un perdedor. I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?” Timmy Turner: “I can't believe you!” Jimmy Neutron: “Soy un perdedor. I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me? Soy un perdedor. I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me? Soy un perdedor. I’m a loser baby, so why don’t you kill me? Sprechen sie Deutsch, baby? Soy un perdedor. I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me? Know what I'm saying?” / And the epic music video ends, as everyone claps.

Darwin says: “It’s time for our next interview. He was one cool cat from Nearburg, who not only represented the show of Catdog, he is the happy husband of Dog FROM that show! Please welcome to the stage, Randolph!” And Randolph walks on-stage to thunderous applause, and sits down on the green couch next to Darwin. Randolph says: “Thank you for the applause, I just LOVE being here!” Eliza says: “You’re welcome, we love having you here.” Darwin says: “Now, Randolph, you were in the game for quite some time. And despite making it to the team merge, you NEVER really got any story developed for the cameras. What gives?” Randolph says: “If you ask me, it was all BLONDA’S doing! If she didn’t HOG the cameras every five seconds while SHE was a contestant, I might have been able to get a relevant plot in, edge wise!” Blonda rolls her eyes and says: “Oh, SURE!!!! Blame ME, even when I had absolutely nothing to DO with your lackluster performance!” Eliza says: “IGNORE her, Randolph!” Randolph says: “I always DO!!!!” And Blonda once again sticks her tongue out, and loudly goes: “BLAH!!!!” Angelica snidely says: “Be careful you don’t make that FACE too much, or else it might FREEZE like THAT!!!!” Blonda ANGRILY says: “Make a remark to me like THAT, again, and I’ll make YOU be the one who has their face FROZEN with an expression like that!” Angelica gulps, and nervously says: “Withdrawn!” Darwin asks: “But tell me, why drop out of the competition even AFTER Captain Retro rescued you?” Randolph says: “Bulma GAVE me $4,440 if I PROMISED to drop out of the competition! I figured she was PROBABLY going to go after Dog EVENTUALLY; at least THIS way, I wound up getting SOMETHING for all the troubles the two of us faced this season! Besides, Bulma MUST be nuts if she thinks that she can bribe, lie, and cheat her way to the TOP!” Lil Deville says: “Exactly! I don’t think it’s going to do her any good!” Eliza says: “So, now that you’re out of the competition, who are you rooting for to win?” Randolph says: “I guess I got to say Dudley. He is one cool dog, with a COOL fashion sense, and I LOVE that!” Darwin says: “Thank you. Please take a seat in the bleachers!” And Randolph takes a seat next to Keswick. Keswick says: “Congratulations on the money!” Randolph says: “Any victory I can get, however small, is a good one.” Eliza says: “Randolph is FABULOUSLY in love with Dog, and one former eliminated contestant is FABULOUSLY in love with Super Chum! In fact, our former Fanboy, FINALLY got his long-awaited dose of super-power infusion kicked IN, and Fanboy is now calling himself FABMAN!!!! And he recently made a music video with some VERY pretty former female contestants and some attractive former male contestants, to express his LOVE for Super Chum!” Darwin says: “He also wanted to dedicate this music video to the late, great George Michael, so let us give it up for FABMAN and his rendition of the hit song, “Freedom 90!” Eliza says: “I am SO dancing to this great, hit tune! /

Genre: Funk Pop. Sub-genre: George Michael. Song: “Freedom 90.” Sung by: Fanboy, and lip-synched by Patty Mayonnaise, Kitty Katswell, Twister Rodriguez, Lil Deville, Pearl Krabs, Treeflower Fields, Dib Bitters, Craig Slithers, Sanjay Patel, and Guano. / Fanboy: “I won't let you down, I will not give you up. Got to have some faith in the sound, it's the one good thing that I've got. I won't let you down, so please don't give me up. Because I would really, really love to stick around, oh yeah! (Instrumental solo) Heaven knows I was just a young boy, didn't know what I wanted to be! (Didn’t know what I wanted to be!)

Take back your picture in a frame, take back your singing in the rain! I just hope you understand, sometimes the clothes do not make the man! All we have to do now, is to take these lies and make them true somehow. All we have to see, is that I don't belong to you, and you don't belong to me, yeah, yeah! Freedom! (I won’t let you down).

Just a buddy and me!) We had every big shot good-time band on the run, boy; we were living in a fantasy! (We were living in a fantasy). We won the race, got out of the place, I went back home, got a brand new face, for the boys on MTV! (Boys on MTV!) But today, the way I play the game has got to change, oh yeah! Now I'm gonna get myself happy! I think there's something you should know, I think it's time I stopped the show, there's something deep inside of me, there's someone I forgot to be! Take back your picture in a frame, don't think that I'll be back again! I just hope you understand, sometimes the clothes do not make the man!

I've got to live, I've got to live!” / And the epic song ends. / Darwin says: “I sure do love me some good George Michael, but now it’s time to get to our next set of contestants to interview. Right, Eliza?” Eliza says: “Quite right, Darwin. Our next batch of former contestants, both come from the same show. In fact, they play BROTHERS on the same show! They are Daggett Doofus and Norbert Foster Beaver!” Darwin says: “Let’s give it up for the Beaver brothers!” And both Daggett and Norbert walk on-stage to thunderous applause! Sway-Sway points and says: “Look! There’s your REAL son, Oonski! Daggett! You know, the guy you ALMOST mistakenly made OUT with?!” Oonski groans and says: “I DON’T want to TALK about it!” Buhdeuce says: “Come on! Don’t you want to say HI to your REAL SON, DAGGETT?!” Oonski yells: “I said I DON’T want to TALK about IT!!!!” And Oonski THROWS his morning star at a spotlight hanging over the main stage, which causes the spotlight to break, and falls on a table, causing a potted PLANT on the table to FLY off and HIT Angelica in the FACE!!!! Angelica says: “COME ON!!!! A song originally played by HEART wasn’t even PERFORMED before THAT!” Otto rolls his eyes and says: “Have you ever thought that maybe it has nothing to DO with whether or not a song was performed by Heart? Maybe it has to do with YOU!”

Angelica asks: “ME?! What does it have to do with ME?!” Heffer says: “Well, maybe if you weren’t so mean and NASTY all the time, plotting to do insidious, RUDE things like you ALWAYS are, maybe karma wouldn’t be TREATING you so bad!” Angelica yells: “I’m the PRETTIEST and most POPULAR Nicktoon of all time! I would TOTALLY be CRUSHING Bulma Briefs if she had the GUTS to face ME head on!” Robot sarcastically says: “Yeah, right! Compared to Bulma Briefs, you couldn’t even graduate Pre-school! And that’s ME being generous!” Angelica shouts: “I’m calling her OUT! Come and face me one on ONE, Bulma! I DARE you to TRY me!” Darwin yells: “WANDA!!!!” Wanda appears and asks: “Yes? Darwin says: “Please give Angelica a WRITTEN response from Bulma!” Wanda asks: “The usual?” Eliza says: “Exactly!” And Wanda waves her wand, and POOFS a written response into Angelica’s hands. Angelica says: “What’s this?” And Angelica reads: “Dear Angelica, tell me what the value of PI is to the 44^th decimal? Tell me how to balance the budget of the American economy? What’s 6 X 7? If you can’t figure out the answers to ANY of those questions like I most CERTAINLY can, you have no chance of EVER beating ME in a contest of brains, beauty, OR brawn; signed Bulma Briefs. P.S.: The answer to the LAST question is 42?!” Angelica yells: “Well, who asked YOU?!!!” Globitha says: “SOMEONE must have gotten up on the wrong side of the BED today!” Phoebe says: “Than EVERY side of the bed must be the WRONG side of the bed for Angelica!” Larry says: “I’d imagine so.” Darwin says: “Anyways, Daggett and Norbert, I’m so SORRY for that RUDE outburst from Angelica” And Angelica sticks out her tongue and loudly says: “BLAH!!!!” But even AFTER she stops saying it, she CAN’T unfreeze her FACE from that position! Angelica, muffled, says: “My face! What happened to my Face?! I’ve frozen my FACE!!!! Someone, help me OUT!!!!” Monster says: “I’m sorry. I only help OUT people who are kind, nice, and furthermore, don’t act like immature little BRATS to every single person they come across!” Angelica, somehow, breaks down and cries! Angelica, muffled, says: “Please! I’m sorry! So sorry! PLEASE fix my face!” Eliza winces and says: “Come on! Can’t somebody just HELP Angelica? This isn’t FUNNY anymore!” Judy says: “But it’s ANGELICA!!!! She doesn’t HAVE any feelings!” Darwin says: “I’d have to AGREE with Judy on THIS one!” Eliza says: “WANDA!!!!” Wanda asks: “What now?” Eliza says: “Fix Angelica’s face!” Wanda says: “NO! I don’t WANT to!” Eliza, determined, says: “Either FIX Angelica’s face, or I’ll have Blonda replace YOU with Mila Kunis!” And Blonda’s FACE lights up! Wanda gets serious and says: “You wouldn’t DARE!!!!” Eliza says: “Try me!” Wanda groans and says: “Fine!” And Wanda waves her wand, and fixes Angelica’s face to normal. Angelica gasps and says: “You…HELPED me! Why?” Eliza says: “Because I just couldn’t STAND to see everyone else dumping on YOU anymore!” Angelica meekly asks: “Do you think…maybe, we can be friends?” Eliza says: “Sure. But right now, I’ve got a show to do.” Angelica says: “Understandable.”

Daggett says: “That was NUTS!!!!” Norbert says: “I agree! You haven’t even GOTTEN to interviewing US yet!” Darwin says: “I’m sorry. We’re getting right back on track, now. Anyways, why don’t you tell us your favorite parts about this season?” Daggett says: “Definitely getting to take charge all on my own; using my OWN skills to win challenges, and discovering a special friendship bond with Norbert that we have NEVER had before!” Norbert says: “My favorite part was getting to see Daggett become a mature and responsible beaver, capable of figuring problems out for himself. And I was able to help him do it!” Eliza says: “Thank you. Anything else you’d like to mention?” Daggett says: “Just that I want to see both Zarbon AND Bulma out of this contest BEFORE the next Performance Challenge!” Norbert says: “I agree! They better NOT make it anywhere NEAR the Final Five!” Darwin says: “Thank you. And just who WOULD you like to see win the Final Five?” Daggett says: “I have a good feeling about Dudley and Rocko. Of course, I wouldn’t MIND seeing Patrick win it all. I guess I can’t quite make up my mind.” Norbert says: “I’d have to say Skipper. He looked hopping MAD when Marlene got eliminated! I would LOVE to see him make it all the way to the Final Three!” Eliza says: “Thank you. Please take a seat.” And Norbert and Daggett BOTH take a seat next to Treeflower! Treeflower says: “I must be the LUCKIEST woman on this show right now! Two HOT boys sitting right next to ME!” Norbert says: “She thinks you’re HOT! You’re making PROGRESS, Daggett!” Daggett says: “I was bound to, eventually!”

Darwin says: “Believe it or not, our Beaver brothers are BIG Van Halen fans!” Eliza asks: “David Lee Roth era, or Sammy Hagar era?” Darwin says: “Both! In fact, they requested to us that if they both HAPPENED to be eliminated in the same episode, they wanted a Van Halen song to be played at the end of their elimination episode, all edited to their BEST footage of their season, of course.” Eliza says: “And did we do that?” Darwin says: “Of COURSE we did! And after their elimination episode, Daggett and Norbert wanted to record their OWN music video version of a Van Halen song for us!” Eliza asks: “David Lee Roth or Sammy Hagar?” Darwin says: “They wanted to both, but we don’t have the time, so they settled on their favorite Sammy Hagar era song.” Eliza says: “So here for you, is a special music video sung by Norbert and Daggett, their rendition of a 1992 hit single by Van Halen! Enjoy!” /

Genre: Hard Rock. Sub-genre: Van Halen. Song: “Right Now.” Sung by: Norbert and Daggett Beaver. / (Instrumental solo) Norbert: “Don't want to wait until tomorrow; why put it off another day? One more walk through your problems, built up, and stand in our way! Ah! One step ahead, one step behind me! Now you got to run to get even! Make future plans, don't dream about yesterday, hey! Come on, turn; turn this thing around!” Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Hey! It's your tomorrow!” Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Come on, it's everything!” Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Catch a magic moment, do it right here and now! It means everything! Miss the beat, you lose the rhythm, and nothing falls into place! No! Only missed by a fraction, slipped a little off your pace! Oh! The more things you get, the more you want! Just trade in one for the other. Working so hard, to make it easier! Whoa! Got to turn, come on; turn this thing around!” Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Hey! It's your tomorrow!” Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Come on, it's everything!” Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Catch that magic moment, do it right here and now! It means everything! It's enlightened me, right now! What are you waiting for! Oh, yeah, right now! Right NOW!” [Guitar Solo] Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Hey! It's your tomorrow!” Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Come on, it's everything!” Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Catch that magic moment, and do it right!” Norbert and Daggett: “Right now!” Norbert: “Oh, right now! It's what's happening! Right here and now! Right now! It's right now! Oh, tell me, what are you waiting for? Turn this thing around!” / And the epic song ends. Darwin says: “Thank you for that music video Beaver brothers!” Eliza says: “We’ve got to take a break right now, but when we come back, we will interview Gonard, Po, Dog and Stimpy, and Marlene herself! And we will have MORE music video surprises in store!” Darwin says: “Stay tuned!” Blonda says: “My guess? A song originally performed by Heart is TOTALLY going to ruin Angelica’s day!” Eliza seriously says: “It BETTER not!” / (Commercial Break) I’ll break here and stop for now. Enough said, for now!

Which 92 episodes are "REALLY good ones" exactly?

I consider episodes 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10, and episode 70, to be the episodes that are NOT as good as the rest of the "Total Cartoon" series. Specifically, "Empire State of My Mind AND Alicia Keyes" in "Total Cartoon Global Cruise" is probably my most creative LOW point when it comes to being a writer. It's a good example on how NOT to write an episode of a cartoon show.

That's going to be hard, seeing as how this show NORMALLY, only CONTAINS characters that have appeared on at least ONE episode of ONE Nickelodeon cartoon show at LEAST once! Although Marlene Otter IS voiced by Nicole Sullivan (who also voiced Shego), so in a way, it kind of DOES contain Shego, I guess.

[Hayden]

Well since you just eliminated Marlene you're obligated to make Shego debut

Here’s something we can ALL celebrate! The second and final part of: Total Cartoon Global Cruise: Performance Review 100^th Episode Spectacular! Enjoy! / The commercials finish airing, and Eliza says: “Welcome back to our extra-special, one of a kind, once in one hundred episodes Performance Review!” Darwin says: “Our celebrity panel is cool, our interviewed guests are even cooler, and the music video performances we’ve got are the coolest!” Blonda asks: “Any chance you’ve got any music video performances by ME for this episode?!” Eliza says: “Sorry, but…you already HAD your big music video performance this season, when you ice-skated in Russia singing that Poison hit song!” Blonda groans and says: “That’s not the highlight I would’ve picked! Why didn’t you highlight that Billy Joel hit song that I sang at Area 51?” Darwin says: Because you didn’t get HUMILIATED in that performance!” Blonda sarcastically says: “I WOULD have to be humiliated for you to feature ANY highlight about me!” Eliza says: “Anyways, it’s time to get back to interviewing our contestants.” Darwin says: “This one goes out to our FABULOUS fan, the wonderful woman who is Cha!” Eliza says: “She has one name, just like Cher!” Darwin says: “The guest we’re going to interview is from the show of Kappa Mikey! He has blue hair, pointy ears, and he is best friends with legendary voice actor, Sean Schemmel!” Eliza says: “Give it up for Gonard!” And Gonard walks in, completely healed and restored, to thunderous applause! Gonard says: “Thank you! I’m glad to be one of the FEW people this season that Bulma Briefs DIDN’T get a chance to be completely RUINED; due to her devious plans!” Darwin says: “And we’re glad for you. Now please, have a seat.” And Gonard sits next to Eliza. Eliza says: “Now Gonard, a lot of your game play focused on TRYING to get Bulma Briefs to notice you, even when she CLEARLY had no intention of giving you the time of day. What gives?” Gonard says: “I was just trying to PROVE myself to Guano and everyone else at the studios back at Lilymu. I thought that if they saw me hanging out with a really, REALLY, hot lady; they’d see just how much of a chick magnet I can be; and they’d give us another season of Kappa Mikey to put on the air.” Darwin says: “Well, unless Cha gets a job at the Nickelodeon studios and can cough up enough money through a kick-starter program, I think you’re going to have to put THOSE dreams on hold!” Eliza says: “There is one thing I REALLY admire about you, though. During the competition, you were NEVER willing to personally betray the contestants you considered to be your friends. You stood up for Buhdeuce, King Julien, and Monster Krumholtz.” Gonard says: “Maybe I couldn’t save them from being eliminated, but I could at LEAST let everyone else know about my personal feelings of what my friends mean to me. And F.Y.I., they mean a LOT to me!” Darwin says: “That’s good to know! Who are you rooting for to win the entire competition?” Gonard says: “I guess I got to go with Skipper. Did you see how MAD he was when Bulma and Zarbon got Marlene ELIMINATED?! Skipper has just GOT to give Zarbon and Bulma EVERYTHING they deserve, and THEN some!” Eliza says: “Thank you for your time. Please take a seat in the bleachers.” Gonard gets up, and takes a seat next to Guano. Guano says: “Thank you for making sure that not EVERYONE from Kappa Mikey came off looking like a TOTAL loser!” Gonard says: “No problem, Guano!” Darwin says: “Gonard was distraught to find out just how DEEP Bulma’s plans for betraying everyone went; especially Zarbon, but as soon as Gonard got better, he made a music video with the rest of his Kappa Mikey cast-mates in an attempt to warn Zarbon about Bulma’s ulterior motives.” Eliza says: “In honor of the late, great Glenn Frey, here is a cover of a hit song that will make the surviving members of The Eagles proud.”

Genre: Rock and Roll. Sub-Genre: The Eagles. Song: “Heartache Tonight.” Sung by: Gonard, Guano, Mikey, Mitsuki, and Lily. / Gonard: “Somebody's gonna hurt someone, before the night is through. Somebody's gonna come undone.  There's nothing we can do. Everybody wants to touch somebody, if it takes all night. Everybody wants to take a little chance, make it come out right. There's gonna be a heartache tonight, a heartache tonight, I know. There's gonna be a heartache tonight, I know.”

Guano: “Lord, I know!” Gonard: “Some people like to stay out late, some folks can't hold out that long. But nobody wants to go home now.  There's too much going on.” Mikey: “This night is gonna last forever. Last all, last all summer long. Sometime before the sun comes up, the radio is gonna play that song.” Gonard: “There's gonna be a heartache tonight, a heartache tonight, I know. There's gonna be a heartache tonight, a heartache tonight, I know.” Lily: “Lord, I know!” Mitsuki: “There's gonna be a heartache tonight, the moon's shining bright, so turn out the light, and we'll get it right!” Gonard: “There's gonna be a heartache tonight, a heartache tonight I know. Heartache baby! (Instrumental solo) Somebody's gonna hurt somebody, before the night is through. Somebody's gonna come undone, there's nothing we can do. Everybody wants to touch somebody, if it takes all night. Everybody wants to take a little chance, to make it come out right. There's gonna be a heartache tonight. A heartache tonight, I know. There's gonna be a heartache tonight, a heartache tonight, I know!” Guano: “Let's go!” Gonard: “We can beat around the bushes; we can get down to the bone. We can leave it in the parking lot, but either way, there's gonna be a heartache tonight, a heartache tonight, I know. There'll be a heartache tonight, a heartache tonight I know!” /

The epic music video ends, and the audience loudly applauds! Darwin says: “Our next guest is a kick-butt Kung Fu Warrior from the Valley of Peace!” Eliza says: “His love for food and Kung Fu is only exceeded by his love for the LOVELY Tigress!” Tigress: “AWESOME! Eliza thinks I’m lovely!” Taotie sarcastically says: “Statistically speaking, somebody HAD to think so!” Tigress seriously says: “You’re a real buzz kill, you know that?” Taotie says: “Only to YOU, for OBVIOUS reasons!” Tigress says: “Same to YOU, creep-fest!” Darwin says: “In any case, say hello to the Kung Fu Panda himself, Po!” And Po comes flying out with some punches and martial arts kicks! Po says: “Oh yeah! The Dragon Warrior is in the house!” And there is LOUD, thunderous applause! Blonda scoffs and says: “Big deal! I could’ve done THAT and gotten the HUGE applause!” Angelica sarcastically says: “Can I see YOUR 9^th Degree Black Belt in Karate?” Blonda angrily says: “Watch your smart-aleck MOUTH or I’ll replace YOU with Mila Kunis!” Angelica threateningly says: “Do THAT and I’ll have MY lawyer Johnathan SUE you for EVERYTHING you’ve GOT!” Blonda SERIOUSLY says: “I’d LOVE to see you TRY and fail like you do at EVERYTHING!” Eliza says: “Shut it! You two are WORSE than Bette Davis and Joan Crawford in, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?!” Blonda happily says: “THANK you for putting me in the SAME class as Bette Davis!” Darwin sarcastically says: “Yeah, YOU just tell yourself that!” Blonda SERIOUSLY says: “I always do!” Eliza says: “Getting back to what we REALLY want, we’d like to highlight your time in Total Cartoon Global Cruise, Po!” Po says: “Whatever you want to ask, fire away!” Darwin says: “All right. How many times DID you make out with Tigress this season?!” Po groans and retorts: “Come ON!!!! Is that ALL my time during this season boiled down to?! How often Tigress and I KISSED each other?!” Eliza says: “You DO have to admit; you could’ve spent more time PUNCHING Zarbon in the face AND you would probably STILL be in the contest!” Po groans and says: “Fine! Tigress and I made out; a LOT!!!! Is THAT the answer you WANT to hear?!” Darwin says: “Yes, but IS it the ACTUAL answer?!” Tigress says: “As a matter of fact, it is!” Taotie sarcastically says: “Oh SURE! Rub YOUR successful relationship in my FACE, why don’t you?!” Tigress says: “It’s not MY fault you had to divorce your wife!” Eliza asks: “The one thing I’m wondering is; why didn’t you show off any of your cool moves from Kung Fu Panda 3 this season?” Po says: “I got eliminated JUST because I punched Zarbon in the face! I don’t even WANT to think about what my punishment might have been if I messed up Zarbon any worse than that!” Darwin thinks about it and says: “Good point. Anyways, now that you are eliminated, who are you rooting for to win this season?” Po says: “There are a lot of good choices. Wally, Rocko, Dudley, Captain Retro, Chameleon, Suzie, Skipper, and Reggie are among them.” Eliza asks: “Why THOSE candidates?” Po answers: “Two good reasons; the first one is, they have skills! The second one is, they’re not evil!” Darwin says: “Thank you for your answers. Please take a seat in the bleachers.” And Po takes a seat right next to Tigress!

Tigress says: “It is good to have you back!” Po says: “It’s good to be back with YOU, Tigress!” Taotie sarcastically says: “You two are SO sweet, together; you’re going to give ME cavities! BLAH!” Tigress says: “You’re free to CHANGE seats, you know!” Taotie says: “And give up this premium spot to have MY voice heard?! You WISH that I were THAT dense and short-sighted!” Eliza says: “We are very lucky that during the time Po and Tigress were in the contest, they had some spare time to make a hit music video with a rocking song together!” Blonda asks: “Oh, and just WHEN did they do that?” Darwin answers: “Right before the China episode when YOU were eliminated, and it’s their rocking version of a hit song by HEART!!!!” Blonda and Angelica both shout: “WHAT?!!!” Eliza says: “We hope you enjoy this RETRO rocking hit!” Blonda and Angelica both simultaneously say: “I object!” Darwin says: “Too late, because here it IS!!!!” /

Genre: Hard Rock Power Ballad. Sub-Genre: Heart (the band). Song: These Dreams.” Sung by: Tigress and Po. / Ethereal footage of surreal events and mystical occurrences happen as Po and Tigress sing this song. / Tigress: “Spare a little candle, save some light for me. Figures up ahead, moving in the trees. White fur, in linen. Perfume on my wrist, and the full moon that hangs over these dreams in the mist.” Po: “Darkness on the edge, shadows where I stand.” Tigress: “Shadows where I stand.” Po: “I search for the time on a watch with no hands. I want to see you clearly, come closer than this.” Tigress: “But all I remember, are the dreams in the mist.” Tigress and Po: “These dreams go on when I close my eyes.” Tigress: “Every second of the night, I live another life!” Tigress and Po: “These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside.” Po: “Every moment I'm awake, the further I'm away!” Tigress: “The further I’m away! Is it cloak and dagger? Could it be spring or fall? I walk without a cut through a stained glass wall.” Po: “Weaker in my eyesight, the candle in my grip.” Tigress: “And words that have no form, are falling from my lips.” Tigress and Po: “These dreams go on when I close my eyes.” Tigress: “Every second of the night, I live another life!” Tigress and Po: “These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside.” Po: “Every moment I'm awake, the further I'm away!” Tigress: “The further I’m away! There's something out there, I can't resist! I need to hide away from the pain; there's something out there, I can't resist! The sweetest song is silence; that I've ever heard. Funny how your feet in dreams never touch the earth. In a wood full of princes, freedom is a kiss. But the prince hides his face, from dreams in the mist.” Tigress and Po: “These dreams go on when I close my eyes.” Tigress: “Every second of the night, I live another life!” Tigress and Po: “These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside.” Po: “Every moment I'm awake, the further I'm away!” Tigress and Po: “These dreams go on when I close my eyes.” Tigress: “Every second of the night, I live another life!” Tigress and Po: “These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside.” Po: “Every moment I'm awake, the further I'm away!” Tigress: “The further I’m away!” / And the epic song ends as thunderous applause is heard! Angelica sarcastically says: “Thanks a lot! Now something BAD is going to happen to ME!” Blonda ruefully says: “YOU?! I’m the ONE that got ELIMINATED right after they RECORDED that song!” Angelica says: “Well nobody CARES if something BAD happens to YOU, because YOU’RE Blonda!” Blonda angrily says: “THAT does IT!!!!” And Blonda LEAPS onto Angelica and LITERALLY produces a thick dust cloud that OBSCURES their brawl! Kaput says: “AWESOME! I just LOVE a good CAT fight!” Randolph says: “As long as it doesn’t involve any ACTUAL cats, I also LOVE it!” Eliza says: “WANDA!!!! Break it up!” Wanda says: “You’ve got it!” And Wanda waves her wand, and produces a grand PIANO that slams onto Blonda and Angelica, and CRASHES them through the floor, a floor below that one, another floor below THAT one, and even one MORE floor below THAT one, and objects can be heard clattering after the crashing noises stop! Wanda blushes and says: “OOPS!!!! I didn’t mean to make the piano THAT heavy!” Blonda and Angelica can both loudly be heard, yelling: “MM!!!! MM!!!! MM!!!! MM!!!!” Phoebe asks: “Isn’t it NICE when both Blonda and Angelica can be heard talking in a matter that we can ALL appreciate?!” Sanjay says: “I guess that song from Heart hit BOTH of them THIS time around!” Darwin says: “Yeah, let us go with THAT one!”

Eliza says: “Our next guests BOTH got eliminated in the same episode together, and they are BOTH former champions of this cartoon series!” Darwin is says: “One is a dog, one is a cat.” Eliza says: “But they are both surprisingly VERY friendly with each other!” Darwin says: “Due to an incident that happened before Stimpy got to El Salvador, and right after he left; we were worried that Stimpy wasn’t going to show.” Eliza says: “Thankfully, Stimpy says everything has been taken care of, and he is ready to be interviewed.” Darwin says: “So give it up for Dog and Stimpy!” And both Dog and Stimpy come walking out to thunderous applause, and Stimpy’s fur is not only FREE of any black paint, it also looks completely luxurious again! Randolph says: “That dog is MY husband!” Haggis says: “That cat is MY protégé! I taught him EVERYTHING he knows!” Eliza says: “Thank you for coming! I mean, we know you kind of HAVE to come, but we want to thank you just the same!” Dog says: “No problem!” Darwin says: “So let us get this question for Stimpy right out of the way. You got covered in black paint, thanks to ZARBON before you got to El Salvador, and you had to shave off your fur in order to get it off. How did you get your regular fur back so fast?” Stimpy says: “Oh, that’s an EASY one! Lil Deville worked up an instant fur growth restoring formula that worked WONDERS on all cats!” Eliza SERIOUSLY says: “Lil Deville did not JUST work up an instant fur growth restoring formula that works wonders on all cats!” Lil responds: “Of COURSE I didn’t JUST work up an instant fur growth restoring formula; it took me at LEAST four tries before I came up with one that DIDN’T explode!” Darwin says: “The main thing we want to know is, on the previous seasons you were contestants for this show, you played some pretty big roles during those seasons. This season, the action kind of happened around you, and not to you. Why do you think that is?” Dog says: “Well, I know that there wasn’t any real conflict happening in my personal life that I had to take care of; and I was pretty content with already having WON a season of this show.” Stimpy says: “I agree. I already had PLENTY of screen-time the last two seasons. Don’t get me wrong; I liked making it all the way past FOUR Performance Reviews this season, but I just wanted to see the action personally, and help out in any way I could!” Eliza says: “And we’re very glad you did; Zarbon will only have himself to blame when Bulma inevitably BETRAYS him like you both WARNED him that she will!” Darwin says: “Speaking of, it seems that Bulma and Zarbon have been responsible either personally or indirectly, for the elimination of MANY of the contestants this season! Show of hands, who here has been affected by either Bulma or Zarbon?”

The former contestants, Haggis, Twister, Lil, Pearl, Treeflower, Dib, Judy, Harvey, Stanley, Zim, Keswick, Kaput, Oonski, Otto, Sanjay, Heffer, Globitha, Robot, King Julien, Buhdeuce, Monster, Spongebob, Larry, Taotie, Tigress, Randolph, Daggett, Norbert, Gonard, Po, Dog, and Stimpy all raise their hands, with a heavily bandaged Blonda and Angelica raising their hands weakly. Eliza says: “Wow! 34 out of 58 total contestants! That’s DEFINITELY more than half! Those two HAVE been busy this season!” Darwin says: “And who knows who else they could end up sending here?” Eliza says: “Well, one thing is for sure, they both have a LOT to answer for once they wind up here!” Dog says: “Don’t worry! I just know my fellow canines Captain Retro and Dudley will do everything in their power to make that happen!” Darwin says: “I’m sure they will!” Eliza says: “Last question; since you are now both eliminated; who are you rooting for to win?” Dog says: “It’s got to be Dudley, but only because Captain Retro says that he can’t win it.” Stimpy says: “I have a good feeling about Reggie, I think that SHE should win it!” Darwin says: “Thank you for your honesty; please take your seats.” Dog sits next to Randolph, and Stimpy sits next to Lil. Randolph asks: “Did you miss me?” Dog says: “You know I did!” Lil says: “You sure handled losing very well.” Stimpy says: “It’s not about whether you win, it’s how you compose yourself during the game that means the most to me!” Eliza says: “Right after they got eliminated, Dog and Stimpy shot a music video together, in black and white!” Darwin says: “They wanted to sing a song that not only paid tribute to the late, great David Bowie, but also a song as a warning about the dangers of fame, directed towards Zarbon and Bulma.” Eliza says: “So let’s give it up for Dog and Stimpy’s rendition of the David Bowie hit song, Fame!” / Genre: Funk. Sub-genre: David Bowie. Song: “Fame.” Sung by: Stimpy and Dog. /

Stimpy: “Fame, makes a man take things over! Fame, lets him loose, hard to swallow! Fame, puts you there, where things are hollow! Fame!” Dog: “Fame, it's not your brain, it's just the flame; that burns your change to keep you insane! Fame!” (Instrumental break) Stimpy: “Fame, what you like is in the limo! Fame, what you get is no tomorrow! Fame, what you need you have to borrow! Fame!” Dog: “Fame, ‘nein! It's mine!’ Is just his line to bind your time! It drives you to, crime! Fame! Could it be the best, could it be? Really be, really, babe? Could it be, my babe, could it, babe? Really, really?” Stimpy: “Is it any wonder if I reject you first?! Is it any wonder you are too cool to fool?!” Stimpy and Dog: “Fame, fame, fame, fame. Fame!” Dog: “Fame, bully for you, chilly for me; got to get a rain check on pain! Fame!” Stimpy and Dog: “Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame; fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame; fame, fame, fame; fame!” Stimpy: “What's your name? What’s your name?!” / And the epic song ends as thunderous applause is heard! /

Darwin says: “And now the interview you’ve all been waiting for today; we have saved the best for last! But first, a little retrospective on the former contestant we’re about to interview! Eliza?” (Clip footage starts running). Eliza says: “Quite right, Darwin. Marlene A. Otter, is…or WAS; a representative from The Penguins of Madagascar.” King Julien says: “I was TOO, if you remember!” Twister says: “Yeah, but you were kind of LOUSY at being a representative!” King Julien says: “I wouldn’t say ‘lousy’.” Lil says: “I would!” King Julien says: “Whatever! It’s just a WORD!” Darwin says: “Anyways, Marlene has had a long, complicated history as a contestant on this show.” Eliza says: “Starting all the way back as a team-mate on the Network Noobs in Total Cartoon Action, she was quickly transferred to the Boom Vets in a move that REALLY shook up the status quo of that season!” Darwin says: “Marlene had a quick wit and an even wittier sense of humor that served her well, in spite of all the troubles and misfortunes that came her way.” Eliza says: “And with apologies to Treeflower, one of Marlene’s biggest conflicts in season two was arguably WITH her!” Treeflower says: “No; it’s okay, I probably DESERVED a lot of her scorn back then. I did HAVE some issues that I honestly needed to work on. I’m not saying I’ve mastered it, I’m just saying I’ve gotten a lot BETTER at being humble.” Darwin says: “During the Alien Hunting movie challenge that happened soon after Treeflower got eliminated in season two, both the Boom Vets and the Network Noobs had a lot of LIES that got exposed to everyone during that challenge.” Eliza says: “It could’ve totally destroyed the unity that the Boom Vets had with each other, but Marlene was the glue that managed to seal and restore the trust within the team!” Darwin says: “But no sooner did Marlene fix ONE problem, than did ANOTHER one soon pop up!” Aang groans and says: “Tell me you’re not going to bring ME up in this?!” Eliza says: “We would be LYING if we SAID that we WEREN’T!” Aang groans and says: “Oh, boy!” Darwin says: “Aang, possessed by the evil Mesogog, got onto season two, and proved to be a very big obstacle that Marlene would have to get past!” Eliza says: “Thankfully, by talking to Stimpy, Marlene managed to help him come up with a plan to EXPOSE Mesogog’s evil scheme, which in turn led to Mesogog getting destroyed once and for all!” Darwin says: “After that, Marlene thought she would be a shoe-in for winning the grand prize in season two!” Eliza says: “Marlene got to the Final Three, but she had to settle for third place, after Dog accurately pointed out all of Marlene’s flaws that occurred during season two.” Darwin says: “Undaunted by this setback, Marlene got right back into the game for season three, determined to do better!” Eliza says: “Or at the very least, manage to outlast MORE contestants in season three, than she did in season two!” Darwin says: “Marlene succeeded in outlasting more contestants in season two, but her dreams of doing better in season three would not come to fruition.” Eliza says: “Marlene had a pretty good plan though, in TRYING to go all the way!” Darwin says: “Marlene partnered up with Captain Retro!” Eliza says: “With his ability to read auras, and foresee different multiple possible futures, Marlene made an alliance with Captain Retro, which was a little TOO much for Skipper to take!” Darwin says: “Because Marlene IGNORED Skipper, it drove Skipper CRAZY, and led to Skipper being eliminated TWICE in season two!” Eliza says: “But despite having to ignore Skipper, Marlene did very well for herself in season three.”

Darwin says: “No matter where Marlene went or what Marlene had to do, Marlene always seemed to be on top of the game!” Eliza says: “Despite Angelica’s BEST worst attempts to RUIN everything for Team Retro, even THAT couldn’t STOP Marlene from outlasting Angelica by LIGHT Years!” And Angelica, muffled, SCREAMS in anger! Dib groans and asks: “Doesn’t anything EVER shut her UP?!” Lil says: “Don’t ask ME! I’ve been asking myself the same question for 18 YEARS!!!!” Darwin says: “Sadly, it seems that all good things must come to an end.” Eliza says: “When the team portion of the show ended, it didn’t take too long for Marlene’s relationship with Captain Retro to come to an end, either.” Darwin says: “When Captain Retro found out that Marlene was only WITH him in order to get a free ride to the Final Three, Captain Retro absolutely REFUSED to tell Marlene just HOW she could win!” Eliza says: “This understandably irritated Marlene, and she finally called it, ‘quits,’ with Captain Retro.” Darwin says: “Thankfully, Skipper managed to get a third chance at the game, thanks to a donation from King Julien, and Marlene finally tied the knot with her one true love!” Eliza says: “But without Captain Retro to protect her, Marlene quickly became the target of the evil schemes of Bulma and Zarbon!” Darwin says: “Bulma masterfully ROPED Marlene into an alliance, for the sole purpose of trying to figure out a way to ELIMINATE Skipper once and for all!” Eliza says: “When Marlene figured out Bulma’s scheme, Marlene confronted Bulma head-on!” Darwin says: “But Bulma PROVED that she was willing to do ANYTHING to get her way, when she had Zarbon IMPLICATE Marlene in a phony scheme that involved Marlene SLEEPING with a select number of contestants that had been eliminated!” Eliza says: “Unfortunately, Bulma’s wicked plan worked.” Darwin says: “And because even SNIZ had been affected by this scheme, he was VERY unwilling to prevent Marlene’s elimination!” Eliza says: “And thusly, with 7 votes against her, Marlene was sadly eliminated from the game, ending her long run as a contestant.” (Clip footage ends). Darwin says: “At last, we can finally present the main attraction of this episode!” Eliza says: “Ladies and gentlemen, the one and only, MARLENE!!!!” And Marlene walks onstage wearing a very BEAUTIFUL green dress, and everyone cheers, and a bouquet of roses is thrown into her hands! Marlene says: “You LIKE me! You REALLY like me!” Darwin says: “Please take a seat, Marlene.”

And Marlene takes a seat next to Darwin. Eliza says: “Marlene, you’re obviously going through a lot of emotions right now; being recently eliminated and everything. Tell me, what is going through your mind, right now?” Marlene says: “In a word, anger. I’m very angry at Bulma and that dirty TRICK she engineered, just to get ME eliminated; all because I said ‘NO,’ when it came to ELIMINATING Skipper! I mean, come ON!!!! I know she really WANTS to win, but she didn’t have to go and pull a STUNT like THAT!!!!” Otto says: “Statistically speaking, I think she kind of DID need to pull a stunt like that!” Larry asks: “How do you figure?” Otto says: “Marlene was playing a pretty solid game. How else could Bulma POSSIBLY get rid of Marlene WITHOUT resorting to such a dirty trick?” Harvey says: “I think you got a point there, Otto. Dirty, blindsiding tricks are just about the one THING; that could throw somebody like MARLENE off of her game!” Marlene says: “One thing I know for sure is, there is no WAY Bulma could’ve gotten THIS far without someone like Zarbon to manipulate!” Darwin says: “I agree. Zarbon was looking for someone to love in this competition, and Bulma was all too willing to fill that role.” Marlene says: “As devastating as MY elimination was, I have a feeling that Zarbon’s elimination will be MUCH worse, if Bulma manages to blindside him the way she WANTS to!” Eliza says: “We’ll just have to wait and see. Do you personally have any regrets about this season?” Marlene says: “Only that I WISH that I could’ve told Skipper about my plan to make an alliance with Captain Retro, but I knew he wouldn’t understand. Besides, he’s not exactly the kind of guy who can keep a plan to himself once he hears about it.” Darwin says: “I think THAT is definitely true! Last question, do we need to ask who you want to win this season?” Marlene says: “I REFUSE to be predictable! IF Skipper doesn’t get to the Final Three, I want Reggie to win it! Other than that, it’s Skipper all the way!” Eliza says: “Thank you for your honesty. Please take a seat.” And Marlene takes a seat next to King Julien. King Julien says: “You’re definitely the LAST woman I would’ve expected to see here!” Marlene says: “I agree with you THERE!”

Darwin says: “After the big event that got all the Nicktoon characters together in Valencia, California, Marlene recorded a song/music video for her unending love and devotion to Skipper!” Eliza says: “So let’s give it up for Marlene’s version of a well-known song by The Beatles!” / Genre: The Beatles. Sub-Genre: Rock and Roll. Song: “The Word.” Sung by: Marlene! / Marlene: “Say the word and you'll be free! Say the word, and be like me. Say the word I'm thinking of. Have you heard, the word is love? It's so fine, it's sunshine. It's the word, love! In the beginning, I misunderstood. But now I've got it, the word is good! Spread the word, and you'll be free! Spread the word, and be like me! Spread the word I'm thinking of. Have you heard the word is love? It's so fine, it's sunshine. It's the word, love! Everywhere I go, I hear it said. In the good and bad books that I have read. Say the word, and you'll be free. Say the word and be like me. Say the word I'm thinking of. Have you heard the word is love? It's so fine, it's sunshine. It's the word, love! Now that I know what I feel must be right, I'm here to show everybody the light! Give the word a chance to say, that the word is just the way. It's the word I'm thinking of, and the only word is love! It's so fine, it's sunshine. It's the word, love! (Instrumental solo) Say the word, love! Say the word, love! Say the word, love! Say the word, love!” / And the epic song ends as thunderous applause is heard! / Darwin says: “And now, since no 100^th episode would be complete without something SPECIAL to make it WORTH having a celebration of THIS size; we’ve got a special treat!” Eliza says: “Killing time until the INEVITABLE live-action re-make of the Kim Possible movie comes out, give it up for the one and only, legendary actress/comedienne Nicole Sullivan!” And Nicole Sullivan walks on, with unusually loud thunderous applause! Nicole Sullivan says: “Hi! I’m actress/comedienne Nicole Sullivan! You probably DON’T remember me from my recurring appearances on Scrubs, or my starring role on I Love the 80’s 3D. Anyways, I’m here because this studio has asked me to give all of you something SPECIAL, and because Sniz wanted MARLENE to do this, but she said no!” Oonski asks: “What does Nickelodeon want you to do?” Nicole says: “I’m glad you asked! Check under all your seats!” And all the contestants pull out CAR keys! Nicole yells: “You get a CAR!!!! And YOU get a car!!!! And you get a CAR!!!! And you GET a CAR!!!! EVERYBODY in this studio gets a CAR!!!!!!!!!!! Top THAT, Oprah Winfrey!!!!!!!!!!” And everybody claps happily! Darwin says: “Well, that’s all the time, AND money we can afford to spend on THIS episode!” Eliza says: “Join us next time for the LAST Performance Review of this season in eight more episodes, where all our eliminated contestants get a voice as to who shall WIN in the Final Five!” Darwin says: “So tune in…if we DON’T get our BUTTS horrendously sued off by Oprah Winfrey FIRST before THEN!!!!” Nicole says: “I’m glad I’m not liable! I signed a WAIVER!!!!” Gonard says: “Somebody ALWAYS does the smart thing!” And clapping and laughing is heard and the scene fades to black. /

Episode Notes: Featured songs in this episode are “Loser, Freedom 90, Right Now, Heartache Tonight, These Dreams, Fame” (the David Bowie song), and “The Word.” Angelica Pickles, being affected by a curse where something BAD happens to her after a song ORIGINALLY performed by Heart is sung, is alive and well, and it also affects BLONDA, as they BOTH get horrendously HURT after they hear the song, “These Dreams”. Personal Notes: I think the only reason this episode took as long to write as it did, is because I wanted to be sure it was written well enough to WARRANT it being the 100^th Episode Spectacular as it was advertised! So if anybody is wondering what the 100^th Episode is, they know EXACTLY where to look! / That’s my episode idea for today! Enough said, true believers!
