Next: "Madtrap" |
Scene: Madcap's lair in the daytime. Madcap is talking to a toy robotic mouse he just applied Minergy to it.
Madcap: The beast is ready for its inaugural mayhem mission! Pesky little Action Axel will be no match for you and your Minergized mechanisms. You almost look like the real thing! Now, listen closely, my plaything. You must infiltrate Axel's home and retrieve-- (The toy mouse rushes away before Madcap could finish giving it his order) Wait! Come back! I'm not finished programming you yet! (The toy mouse escapes from the lair through the air vent) No!
Scene: Axel's room at night. Masko is on the table with a pile of championship belts.
Masko: Oh! No! This cannot be!
(Masko sobs loudly. The rest of the Power Players all gather up on the table. Axel gets up from his bed and walks to where his toys are.)
Axel: Masko? Something wrong?
Masko: The championship belt... is the missing!
Axel: Are you sure? Looks like you still have plenty of 'em right here.
Masko: The championship belt. The first I ever win. (A flashback briefly appears, showing Masko hugging his first championship belt. The flashback ends. Masko sniffs before he suddenly gets mad, turning his normal yellow mask into the color red which he would often wear whenever he's angry) Someone has the took!
(The Power Players all stare at Galileo who's innocently playing with his yo-yo)
Galileo: What? Why are you all looking at me?
Bearbarian: Perhaps because when something goes missing around here, you are the trickster behind it!
(Galileo gasps)
Galileo: How can you say that?
(A flashback appears, showing Galileo secretly stole Bearbarian while the latter is asleep in his closet)
Galileo: Spy lizard strikes again!
(Flashback ends)
Bearbarian: Mmm-hmm.
Galileo: A-OK. But that was one time, Bearbarian!
Sarge Charge: And that time you took my parachute for that photo of yours?
(Sarge is holding his parachute pack)
Galileo: Yes, fine, Sarge, that was me, too. But you have to admit those pictures were rather dashing! (He shows Sarge selfie pictures he took from his phone of himself parachuting down from the toy store's roof) Huh? Oh!
Slobot: It is not just Masko's belt that is missing. I cannot find my screws.
(Slobot's right arm falls off)
Galileo: Slobot's always had a few screws loose anyway! Am I wrong? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! (His teammates all angrily glare at him, not finding his joke funny) But I promise I learned my lesson with Bearbarian's hammer! Honest!
Masko: So the belt is just disappear?
(Galileo gasps)
Galileo: Wait a minute. I know! It must have been... the thing in the wall!
(The Power Players all still glaring at Galileo, not believing his claim)
Masko: The what in the where?
(Galileo grabs Masko and pulls him closer)
Galileo: Haven't you heard noises in the walls today? (He lets go of Masko, causing him to collapse on the table) Something's alive in there! It must be the thing stealing masks and screws and everything! I'm innocent! A few mistakes shouldn't define someone forever, right, Axel?
Axel: Uh... well... idea! Let's all sleep on it, and if Masko's belt turns up in the morning, we'll just move on, no questions asked. Right, everybody?
(Axel walks away from the table and heads to bed. The rest of the Power Players all do the same thing)
Galileo: But it wasn't me! I didn't do it! (His teammates all ignore him) Calamity!
(Later when everyone is asleep, Galileo sneaks out of the room and head to the kitchen. However, on his way out, he opens the bedroom door and causes the light from the hallway to shine on Axel's face, waking him up)
Axel: Huh? (He sees Galileo sneaking out of his room) Sneaking around, huh? Let's find out what you're up to.
Scene: Second floor of the house. Galileo is on the coffee table and he's recording himself with a camera.
Galileo: Hello, fans. Galileo here, live in the living room looking for "The Thing in the Wall", to prove I was telling the... (He gets startled when he sees someone is throwing multiple objects off a shelf in the kitchen behind him) Aaah! (He sees a can rolling on the floor) This is my chance to be a hero, hopefully from a safe distance. (He sees the toy mouse running past on the kitchen floor so he hides behind one of the legs of the coffee table) Did you see that? Ahem. I'm going in, treasured admirers. If I don't make it back out, please remember to like and subscribe! Hashtag, Liz-tastic!
(Galileo crawls to the kitchen and starts investigating the kitchen. He gets onto his feet and starts walking backward, but he accidentally bumps into Action Axel who also walking backward while investigating the kitchen too)
Action Axel and Galileo: Gah! Aaah!
Galileo: You're the thing in the wall?
Action Axel: What? (He gets back onto his feet) No! That thing isn't real. There's no one here but us.
Galileo: Impossible! That would mean that you... you really think I took Masko's belt? Argh!
Action Axel: Listen, Gal... (He sees the toy mouse running on the top shelf) Whoa! Did you see that?
Galileo: If I say I did, would you even believe me anyway?
Action Axel: Can you honestly tell me you haven't given us reason not to trust you, Galileo?
Galileo: Mmm. Urgh!
(Galileo crosses his arms and looks away from Action Axel)
Action Axel: But we need to follow whatever that was. If we catch it, maybe we can clear your name!
Galileo: Maybe we can clear your name.
(Action Axel and Galileo both investigate the kitchen)
Action Axel: Hmm.
(Galileo notices a screw on the floor)
Galileo: Is that Slobot's screw?
(A red spoon lands on the floor)
Action Axel: It's up there! (He pushes Galileo out of the way and a plate drops on the floor) Let's go get it, Gal!
Galileo: Like all the great agents, I work alone.
(Galileo climbs up to the table)
Action Axel: Come on! I'm trying to help you! (He gets onto the table, but he sees no one there except Galileo) Gone!
Galileo: Because you were too loud and too not camouflaged. Now let me finish my quest the way I started it. Solo.
Action Axel: What? I'm also on a quest. I happen to be going in the same direction, at the same time.
(Galileo gasps and he immediately hides behind Action Axel)
Galileo: What is that? The thing in the wall!
(The two Power Players both see the toy mouse on the top shelf. The toy mouse gets down onto the sink)
Toy mouse: Infiltrate Axel's home and retrieve...
(The toy mouse gets onto the table)
Action Axel: It kinda looks like--
Galileo: A monster! Save us!
Action Axel: Uh... the "thing in the wall" is a cute little mouse? Aw!
Galileo: Not cute! Not little!
(The toy mouse charges forward, causing Action Axel and Galileo to jump down from the table)
Action Axel: Aaah!
Galileo: Whoa!
(Action Axel lands onto the floor before he can activate his jet boots in time, causing himself to fly and crash into a leg of a chair)
Action Axel: Whoa!
(Galileo lands safely on the floor)
Galileo: Now that's how you stick a landing. Ten out of ten!
(Action Axel looks up at the table to see the toy mouse chewing on a fork)
Action Axel: A living toy mouse? Must have been sent by Madcap.
Galileo: But why send a rat to do a rapscallion's work?
(Action Axel and Galileo both gasp when they see the toy mouse carries the fork into the air vent)
Action Axel: Only one way to find out! Into the deep, dark pipes we go!
Galileo: Uh... after you.
Scene: Air vent. Action Axel, holding his Power Sword like a torch, and Galileo both investigate the air vent to search for the toy mouse.
Galileo: Hello! (His voice echoes throughout the vent) Are we going the right way?
(The toy mouse squeaks)
Action Axel: I'll take that as a yes.
(Action Axel and Galileo both didn't watch where they're going and they slip down to another area in the air vent)
Action Axel and Galileo: Aaah!
(Action Axel and Galileo land onto the ground and they're now in the air vent from Andrew's workshop. They look up and sees a pile of stuff the toy mouse stole from Axel's room)
Galileo: Whoa!
Action Axel: Look! Isn't that Slobot's missing stuff?
Galileo: Mouse droppings. But... (He runs into the pile and search for Masko's championship belt. Once he finds it, he pulls it out) Aha! What would a mechanical mouse want with this? It's not even his size. (He jumps down from the pile, now wearing the belt on his body) Looks far more flattering on me. I always make gold look good. (The toy mouse squeaks) Aaah!
Action Axel: The thing!
(The toy mouse notices Galileo is wearing Masko's belt. It angrily charges forward and knocks Action Axel into the wall of the air vent)
Action Axel: Aaah! (The toy mouse starts sniffing him) Please don't eat me!
(Galileo takes off the belt and starts shaking it in front of the toy mouse)
Galileo: Here mousy-mousy-mousy!
(The toy mouse charges toward Galileo)
Action Axel: Gal, hold up!
(Galileo pounces up and gets onto the toy mouse's back, now riding it like an out-of-control horse. The toy mouse runs around the air vent, bumping into the walls along its way)
Galileo: Whoa! Aaah! Hi-ho!
(Eventually, the toy mouse throws Galileo off its back and it grabs the championship belt with its mouth)
Action Axel: Huh? (The toy mouse escapes from him and Galileo) That thing got the thing! We have to stop that thing and get that thing back!
Galileo: What you said.
(Action Axel and Galileo both chase after the toy mouse. However, they cause a loud ruckus in the house which Andrew takes notice)
Scene: Kitchen. Andrew is making a sandwich for a midnight snack.
Uncle Andrew: Oh! Something's in the walls. Better call pest control first thing in the morning.
(Andrew walks out of the kitchen and heads to his workshop. Once he's gone from the second floor, the toy mouse gets out of the air vent and Action Axel and Galileo both follow suit)
Action Axel: Gal! Slow down! We need to make a plan. Together!
Galileo: I seem to recall you not believing me. So, I'd rather be on my own. (He continues his chase with the toy mouse) Come back here with that belt, you thieving vermin!
(Galileo and the toy mouse both make a loud ruckus in the living room)
Action Axel: Gal! Shh! Uncle Andrew's downstairs!
Scene: Andrew's workshop. Andrew is about to eat his midnight snack when he hears a crash coming from upstairs.
Uncle Andrew: Huh? Those critters are almost as noisy as kids.
Scene: Second floor of the house. Galileo is still chasing after the toy mouse.
Galileo: Now where?
(Galileo sees the toy mouse and continues his chase. Action Axel gets in front of the toy mouse, hoping to stop the chase)
Action Axel: Stop! Stop! (But the toy mouse doesn't stop and it knocks him aside) Whoa!
(Action Axel crashes into the cabinet, causing multiple books to fall off)
Galileo: Think you can outrun a highly trained genetic spy lizard? Well, just think again!
(The books all land on top of Action Axel and Galileo, causing the toy mouse to get away)
Action Axel: Great plan! So, we good to team up now, Gal? Gal?
(He turns around and sees Galileo chasing after the toy mouse on the kitchen table)
Galileo: Oh! Come back, you! I'll get it! (He pulls the championship belt out of the toy mouse's mouth) It's been "mice" knowing you, but that belt is mine! I mean, Masko's.
(Action Axel gets onto the table and stops Galileo)
Action Axel: Gal! Hold up! This toy might be full of Madcap's Minergy, but it's acting more like a normal mouse. (He picks up the championship belt) It's following its instincts, but I think something's wrong with its programming. Watch.
(Action Axel holds the championship belt in front of the toy mouse)
Toy mouse: Infiltrate Axel's home and retrieve... (He continues to say "Infiltrate Axel's home and retrieve..." in the background)
Galileo: It's stuck in a loop.
Action Axel: And so was I. I was wrong not to believe you, Gal. I'm sorry. A mistake shouldn't define you, me, or even this wind-up mouse.
Galileo: Aw! Thanks, chum. Would you repeat that again, but on camera?
Action Axel: I don't think now's the best time!
(The toy mouse charges towards Action Axel and Galileo, but they dodge them. The two Power Players both notice a large jar nearby on the table)
Galileo: Axel, do you really trust me now?
Action Axel: I do.
Galileo: Throw the belt in that jar.
(Action Axel throws the belt into the jar which makes the toy mouse charges toward it. Galileo grabs the belt out of the jar)
Action Axel: Gal! Now! (He and Galileo both trick the toy mouse and trap it into the jar. The toy mouse begins licking orange jam from inside the jar) Looks like its instincts led to something better than the belt. Jam!
Galileo: Yes! A snack! What do we do with it now?
Scene: Backyard of the house the next morning. The Power Players all watch the toy mouse eating a piece of cheese in the garden.
Masko: So cute! Is the new pet now?
Axel: Pet? No. He'll run out of Minergy soon and then he'll just be a wind-up mouse toy again. But Galileo did get you something you'll like, Masko.
(Galileo shows Masko his championship belt)
Galileo: Surprise!
Masko: Aaah! The belt! (He tackles Galileo in happiness) I can't believe you find! I am so happy! I... (He grabs the belt) Hey! Why is the sticky? (He licks the orange jam off the belt) Gnom, gnom. Mmm. Taste like jam. Make me hungry.
Axel: I could use some grub, too.
Galileo: I can get you a piece of cheese from mousey for you! I'm sure he won't notice!
Axel: Have you learn nothing from all this? You can't just take something without asking, Gal.
Galileo: Of course I know that. I was kidding! I'm an actor!
(Axel and the Power Players, except Galileo, all walk away from the garden and head to his room)
Axel: Cool. So, let's go eat and get Slobot's stuff out of the wall before Uncle Andrew comes back with his pest-control crew!
Galileo: Be right there! (He looks at the toy mouse) A few mistakes shouldn't define someone forever, right?
(Galileo takes one of the toy mouse's cheeses and runs off, but the toy mouse doesn't mind and continues chewing his cheese)
