Stimulus checks?

{\an8}We were supposed to cash these
during the pandemic.

Should we spend the money now

{\an8}Wait, that's the move?
18
00:00:45,795 --> 00:00:48,381
{\an8}Go all sincere and emo? Gross.

vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom.

{\an8}Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Oh, boy.
24
00:00:59,225 --> 00:01:04,981
{\an8}Surprise money, then a surprise cruise?
Two is the perfect number of surprises.

{\an8}It sure is, Dad.
26
00:01:06,566 --> 00:01:08,359
{\an8}We're going on a regular cruise

00:02:56,968 --> 00:02:59,721
Hey, check out
that Avatar volleyball tournament.
55
00:02:59,721 --> 00:03:02,265
It's Na'vi versus Last Airbenders.

Ooh, look at all those Cadburys.
58
00:03:10,607 --> 00:03:12,275
Mmm.
59
00:03:12,275 --> 00:03:15,028
Oh, my God. Is that Taika Waititi?
60
00:03:15,612 --> 00:03:18,364
I love everything you do.
61
00:03:18,364 --> 00:03:20,909
Your Thor movies,
What We Do in the Shadows.
62
00:03:20,909 --> 00:03:25,455
Oh, and you're by far
my favorite on-screen Hitler.
63
00:03:25,455 --> 00:03:27,415
Take that, the late Bruno Ganz.
64
00:03:27,415 --> 00:03:29,959
Well, if you love that,
you'll certainly be in a furor
65
00:03:29,959 --> 00:03:34,964
over my newest acting role
as Daerius D'Avignon, medieval detective,
66
00:03:34,964 --> 00:03:39,552
in the new $300 million streaming show,
Murder, He Swords.
67
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,474
The murderer is the Black Plague again.
68
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:49,562
You know it's good because
it's based on existing IP.
69
00:03:49,562 --> 00:03:52,649
IP. IP.
70
00:03:53,733 --> 00:03:56,319
Please welcome the king
and queen of this nerd prom,
71
00:03:56,319 --> 00:03:59,322
Comic and Kumiko Book Guy.
72
00:04:00,281 --> 00:04:02,617
Out of my way, league of non-legends.
73
00:04:02,617 --> 00:04:05,036
Gaze upon your betters and weep.
74
00:04:05,912 --> 00:04:06,955
Behold.
75
00:04:06,955 --> 00:04:09,791
I have brought the jewel
of my collectible collection,
76
00:04:09,791 --> 00:04:12,543
the rarest treasure in all of geekdom,
77
00:04:12,543 --> 00:04:14,796
a Radioactive Man action figure
78
00:04:14,796 --> 00:04:18,549
accidentally manufactured
with Wolverine claws.
79
00:04:18,549 --> 00:04:21,636
Look upon it and lose your mind.
80
00:04:23,972 --> 00:04:27,642
Only two of those defective toys were made
before they caught the mistake.
81
00:04:27,642 --> 00:04:31,771
This you remember, but every year
our anniversary evades you.
82
00:04:31,771 --> 00:04:34,065
Don't embarrass me
in front of the other Blades.
83
00:04:35,566 --> 00:04:37,944
"Vomit" Book Guy is on the boat?
84
00:04:37,944 --> 00:04:40,238
Oh, cruise ruined.
85
00:04:40,238 --> 00:04:42,824
What do you have against
the Comic Book Guy?
86
00:04:42,824 --> 00:04:45,326
I walked into his store two weeks ago.
87
00:04:46,035 --> 00:04:49,706
I know this is weird, but I actually drew
a comic book of my own.
88
00:04:50,373 --> 00:04:52,375
- Hmm.
- Check it out.
89
00:04:52,375 --> 00:04:55,461
{\an8}He's half croc,
half gator and full prankster.
90
00:04:55,461 --> 00:04:59,048
Huh. Wow.
You know what, I'm really impressed.
91
00:04:59,048 --> 00:05:03,803
I'm going to fax this right away
to my friends at Man, You Suck Publishing.
92
00:05:07,890 --> 00:05:09,392
You suck.
93
00:05:11,394 --> 00:05:15,315
I swear to God, one day I'm gonna
get my revenge on Comic Book Guy.
94
00:05:20,903 --> 00:05:23,531
I hate this stupid baby dress-up cruise.
95
00:05:23,531 --> 00:05:25,533
And why can't I be Uncle Fester?
96
00:05:25,533 --> 00:05:28,578
I'm bald, and I already own
several black muumuus.
97
00:05:29,620 --> 00:05:32,999
Ooh. Wait, this stuff doesn't have
punny names, does it?
98
00:05:32,999 --> 00:05:34,751
No, it's just like any other cruise.
99
00:05:34,751 --> 00:05:37,545
Infinite food for gluttonous slobs.
100
00:05:38,963 --> 00:05:41,549
Taika, why are you eating all by yourself?
101
00:05:41,549 --> 00:05:46,262
To maintain energy for all my writing,
directing, acting and rakish smirking.
102
00:05:46,262 --> 00:05:48,097
Plus, it's in my cruise rider.
103
00:05:48,097 --> 00:05:51,100
I also get a cabin
facing the sunrise and the sunset,
104
00:05:51,100 --> 00:05:55,104
unlimited Vegemite and the top tier
of any seafood tower.
105
00:05:55,104 --> 00:05:58,399
Ah, mmm. Hmm?
106
00:05:58,399 --> 00:06:01,319
Hmm. Oh.
107
00:06:01,319 --> 00:06:06,908
Now on display, the exquisitely flawed
Radioactive X-Gentleman,
108
00:06:06,908 --> 00:06:11,329
aka Wolveractive Man, aka Radio-verine.
109
00:06:14,916 --> 00:06:18,211
Uh, look out, uh.
Don't give that guy money.
110
00:06:18,211 --> 00:06:21,672
He's a dream-crushing jackass,
and he doesn't deserve dollar one.
111
00:06:21,672 --> 00:06:25,426
I hope one day someone destroys
the thing you love most.
112
00:06:27,095 --> 00:06:29,555
Somebody turned off the lights.
113
00:06:32,975 --> 00:06:35,061
The doll's head. It's gone.
114
00:06:35,061 --> 00:06:38,648
Speak to me,
O headless Radioactive collectible.
115
00:06:38,648 --> 00:06:43,069
Oh, sweet suffering mate,
let me share in your distress.
116
00:06:46,906 --> 00:06:51,160
Who could have done such a thing?
Who could--
117
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,413
Oh, the agony.
118
00:06:53,413 --> 00:06:55,456
I wager Bart Simpson did this.
119
00:06:55,456 --> 00:06:59,460
He had the motive, means,
and he's a notorious stinker.
120
00:06:59,460 --> 00:07:02,839
That is a recipe for murder.
121
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,634
And look at the three tiny
scratch marks on Bart's cheek.
122
00:07:07,969 --> 00:07:10,346
No one murders a doll on my ship.
123
00:07:10,346 --> 00:07:11,472
To the brig.
124
00:07:14,183 --> 00:07:15,309
D'oh, d'oh.
125
00:07:18,479 --> 00:07:20,565
I swear I didn't kill that doll.
126
00:07:20,565 --> 00:07:21,899
Stop lying, boy.
127
00:07:21,899 --> 00:07:24,819
I can't believe
you ruined my dream cruise.
128
00:07:24,819 --> 00:07:26,487
You hate this cruise.
129
00:07:26,487 --> 00:07:31,451
No, I hate the theme and the people
and the boat, but I love the food.
130
00:07:33,494 --> 00:07:35,913
Mr. and Mrs. Simpson,
I know it's hard for you
131
00:07:35,913 --> 00:07:38,833
to see your son
in this tiny cruise ship jail.
132
00:07:38,833 --> 00:07:40,042
It is.
133
00:07:40,042 --> 00:07:41,461
Well, don't you worry.
134
00:07:41,461 --> 00:07:45,631
Tomorrow he'll be taken ashore
and locked in a full adult prison.
135
00:07:45,631 --> 00:07:48,801
- No!
- But with all the amenities.
136
00:07:48,801 --> 00:07:49,969
Okay.
137
00:07:49,969 --> 00:07:52,388
The Amenities are a notorious prison gang.
138
00:07:52,388 --> 00:07:54,223
They really hate children.
139
00:07:54,223 --> 00:07:55,725
- No.
- Uh-oh.
140
00:07:58,728 --> 00:08:01,856
Lis, I know it looks bad,
but I'm really scared.
141
00:08:01,856 --> 00:08:04,025
I swear I didn't do it.
142
00:08:04,025 --> 00:08:05,193
I don't know.
143
00:08:05,193 --> 00:08:10,072
You've beheaded many of my dolls,
from Malibu Stacy to Fire Island Frank.
144
00:08:10,072 --> 00:08:12,575
No, those aren't valuable. They're yours.
145
00:08:12,575 --> 00:08:15,244
Bart, you've lied to me
so many times before,
146
00:08:15,244 --> 00:08:16,913
how could I ever believe you?
147
00:08:16,913 --> 00:08:19,248
Okay, but this time I'm telling the truth.
148
00:08:19,248 --> 00:08:23,169
And to prove it,
I'm gonna own up to all my past lies.
149
00:08:24,253 --> 00:08:26,672
That time when the dog buried
your saxophone in the garden,
150
00:08:26,672 --> 00:08:27,757
he had some help.
151
00:08:27,757 --> 00:08:31,260
When Malala called on your birthday
to tell you to suck lemons, that was me.
152
00:08:31,260 --> 00:08:33,513
That time you woke up in a bathtub
full of garlic knots--
153
00:08:33,513 --> 00:08:35,515
I get it. I get it. You're terrible.
154
00:08:35,515 --> 00:08:41,187
Okay, I figure I only get one time to say,
Lis, you gotta believe me no matter what.
155
00:08:41,187 --> 00:08:43,731
Right now, I am playing that card.
156
00:08:43,731 --> 00:08:46,526
I did not destroy that doll.
157
00:08:47,235 --> 00:08:49,445
Oh, my God. I believe you.
158
00:08:54,283 --> 00:08:57,703
The only way to clear Bart's name
is to figure out who really did it.
159
00:08:57,703 --> 00:09:00,373
But I can't do it all
by myself. I need help.
160
00:09:00,373 --> 00:09:03,209
I'll help you. No, hang on.
Let me try that again.
161
00:09:03,209 --> 00:09:04,710
I'll help you.
162
00:09:04,710 --> 00:09:05,795
Nailed it.
163
00:09:05,795 --> 00:09:08,548
Taika Waititi? Seriously?
164
00:09:08,548 --> 00:09:10,716
You'll help me exonerate my brother?
165
00:09:10,716 --> 00:09:12,593
Of course. Why? I'll tell you.
166
00:09:12,593 --> 00:09:16,389
Because I have a medical condition where
I have to be multitasking at all times.
167
00:09:16,389 --> 00:09:20,893
Well, my brother can't be the only person
on this ship who hated Comic Book Guy.
168
00:09:20,893 --> 00:09:24,855
So I guess we'll just have to question
every passenger on the manifest.
169
00:09:24,855 --> 00:09:27,358
Why don't we start
with fans of the Taika-verse?
170
00:09:27,358 --> 00:09:28,859
Whoops! That's everyone.
171
00:09:31,195 --> 00:09:32,280
Let's go.
172
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,032
I hate Comic Book Guy,
and I hated that doll
173
00:09:35,032 --> 00:09:37,618
because it originally belonged to me!
174
00:09:44,125 --> 00:09:46,210
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
175
00:09:46,210 --> 00:09:49,213
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh, ooh, ooh!
176
00:09:49,213 --> 00:09:53,092
Hi. Excuse me,
but I will take this, uh, non-priceless,
177
00:09:53,092 --> 00:09:59,307
completely valueless garbage
off of your hands for, uh, $11.
178
00:09:59,307 --> 00:10:03,269
But, Dad, I think
it might be worth a lot more.
179
00:10:03,269 --> 00:10:04,770
Who cares, Milhouse?
180
00:10:04,770 --> 00:10:08,024
This is two $5 footlongs
and a weird cookie.
181
00:10:08,024 --> 00:10:11,986
Hey, Luann. Anniversary dinner
is back on, baby.
182
00:10:13,738 --> 00:10:17,450
I didn't destroy that action figure,
but I sure had a motive.
183
00:10:17,450 --> 00:10:19,702
A clear motive.
184
00:10:20,661 --> 00:10:23,080
I don't know why you're interrogating me.
185
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,083
I have no bone to grind
with that Comic Book chap.
186
00:10:27,168 --> 00:10:28,169
Really?
187
00:10:28,169 --> 00:10:31,380
Even after Comic Book Guy
led an online troll army
188
00:10:31,380 --> 00:10:34,925
to demand you be fired
and replaced in this?
189
00:10:34,925 --> 00:10:37,345
From the producers of Mad Max
190
00:10:37,345 --> 00:10:41,932
comes a vision so dark,
so violent and so wacky.
191
00:10:42,975 --> 00:10:44,602
Sideshow Mel...
192
00:10:44,602 --> 00:10:49,315
We'll kill them all,
or my name isn't Dick Dastardly.
193
00:10:49,315 --> 00:10:52,693
...and Timothée Chalamet as Muttley.
194
00:10:56,656 --> 00:10:58,699
Curse that funny-book fiend.
195
00:10:58,699 --> 00:11:00,910
He mobilized both the Hanna-Barbarians
196
00:11:00,910 --> 00:11:05,081
and the Wack-olytes against me
in a devastating online petition.
197
00:11:08,918 --> 00:11:12,380
First of all, that looks so good,
I'm surprised I didn't direct it.
198
00:11:12,380 --> 00:11:14,799
Did I? October was crazy.
199
00:11:14,799 --> 00:11:17,843
But, Mel, would your bone-trembling
anger lead you
200
00:11:17,843 --> 00:11:21,347
to destroy Comic Book Guy's
most prized possession?
201
00:11:21,347 --> 00:11:22,473
It would!
202
00:11:22,473 --> 00:11:23,641
But it didn't.
203
00:11:23,641 --> 00:11:24,725
But it could!
204
00:11:24,725 --> 00:11:28,354
And if I did,
I would lie about it to you now!
205
00:11:28,354 --> 00:11:29,647
But I'm not.
206
00:11:29,647 --> 00:11:31,273
But I would!
207
00:11:34,110 --> 00:11:36,362
Why are you wasting your time with me?
208
00:11:36,362 --> 00:11:41,450
I love my greasy snowman husband and
his tragic blooper of an action figure.
209
00:11:41,450 --> 00:11:44,453
We have security footage
that says differently.
210
00:11:48,833 --> 00:11:54,046
It's true.
I hated that injection-molded monstrosity.
211
00:11:54,046 --> 00:11:58,384
When I first met Comic Book Guy,
I was his priceless collectible.
212
00:11:58,384 --> 00:12:00,136
But now when we make love,
213
00:12:00,136 --> 00:12:03,264
my husband calls out
the doll's serial number.
214
00:12:03,264 --> 00:12:07,435
I just want back
my sweet Comic Book Gaijin.
215
00:12:12,314 --> 00:12:15,317
So many passengers
could have committed doll-icide.
216
00:12:15,317 --> 00:12:16,902
Huh.
217
00:12:16,902 --> 00:12:20,865
Poor Bart. Ah, but, geez,
look at the mess he left in our cabin.
218
00:12:24,702 --> 00:12:27,329
Oh, dear God.
219
00:12:27,830 --> 00:12:29,373
I didn't think Bart did it,
220
00:12:29,373 --> 00:12:34,170
but then I found this Radioactive head
from the decapitated doll in Bart's stuff.
221
00:12:34,170 --> 00:12:38,632
He looked me right in the eyes
and said he didn't do it.
222
00:12:38,632 --> 00:12:41,343
I can never trust him again.
223
00:12:41,343 --> 00:12:45,514
Oh, sweetie. You've just learned one
of life's hardest lessons.
224
00:12:45,514 --> 00:12:48,392
Sometimes, no matter how much
you love someone,
225
00:12:48,392 --> 00:12:50,770
they're just going to let you down.
226
00:12:50,770 --> 00:12:52,563
For your mother, it's me.
227
00:12:52,563 --> 00:12:54,690
Just try to get some sleep, honey.
228
00:12:54,690 --> 00:12:58,652
Bart will still be horribly guilty
in the morning.
229
00:13:02,364 --> 00:13:04,116
Hmm?
230
00:13:06,452 --> 00:13:08,204
Rainier Wolfcastle?
231
00:13:08,204 --> 00:13:11,540
There is something I must tell you
about the night of the "fanquet"
232
00:13:11,540 --> 00:13:13,459
and subsequent toy murder.
233
00:13:13,459 --> 00:13:17,463
When everything went dark,
I was wearing my night-vision goggles
234
00:13:17,463 --> 00:13:20,049
from my upcoming film,
The Night-Vision Goggler.
235
00:13:20,049 --> 00:13:21,884
Did you see who did it?
236
00:13:21,884 --> 00:13:23,344
Patience, Fräulein.
237
00:13:23,344 --> 00:13:29,099
I did see the culprit, and I'm about
to tell you who he or she is.
238
00:13:29,099 --> 00:13:32,061
Watch as the words emerge from my mouth.
239
00:13:32,061 --> 00:13:35,523
The doll murderer is "nein" other than--
240
00:13:36,023 --> 00:13:37,024
Ouch.
241
00:13:37,024 --> 00:13:40,611
I will be passing out now
and all of these things.
242
00:13:42,154 --> 00:13:43,239
Oh!
243
00:13:51,580 --> 00:13:53,207
Damn it.
244
00:13:56,919 --> 00:13:57,920
Ugh.
245
00:14:02,132 --> 00:14:04,635
Lisa, are you also up dusting for prints?
246
00:14:04,635 --> 00:14:07,638
That's what I call eating leftover food
off people's room service trays.
247
00:14:10,057 --> 00:14:11,517
I don't care!
248
00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:17,314
If one more horrible thing happens,
I'm going to lose it.
249
00:14:18,482 --> 00:14:23,028
My sweet Comic Book Guy is gone.
250
00:14:23,612 --> 00:14:25,698
Of course he is.
251
00:14:25,698 --> 00:14:28,909
I mean...
252
00:14:32,162 --> 00:14:35,499
Bart's in jail, our one credible witness
just got sucker-shielded,
253
00:14:35,499 --> 00:14:36,959
Comic Book Guy is missing,
254
00:14:36,959 --> 00:14:39,336
and we're still no closer
to solving the case.
255
00:14:39,336 --> 00:14:40,963
So many twists and turns.
256
00:14:40,963 --> 00:14:43,007
What kind of murder mystery is this?
257
00:14:43,007 --> 00:14:45,384
Stop talking, Taika Waititi!
258
00:14:45,968 --> 00:14:50,306
That's it. I know who murdered the toy,
but I just need one thing.
259
00:14:50,306 --> 00:14:53,767
An audience
to watch me milk the big reveal.
260
00:14:53,767 --> 00:14:56,645
The murder
of Comic Book Guy's action figure
261
00:14:56,645 --> 00:15:00,024
was committed by Comic Book Guy himself.
262
00:15:00,024 --> 00:15:02,359
Based on a hunch,
I wrote to Lloyd's of London,
263
00:15:02,359 --> 00:15:05,779
and I got this response
from Lloyd himself. Good guy.
264
00:15:05,779 --> 00:15:11,619
Comic Book Guy had the doll appraised
and insured for 935,000 British pounds.
265
00:15:13,203 --> 00:15:14,622
So he turned off the lights
266
00:15:14,622 --> 00:15:18,626
and murdered the plastic action man
himself for the insurance money.
267
00:15:18,626 --> 00:15:20,711
But then he knew that we were onto him.
268
00:15:20,711 --> 00:15:22,838
Or, let's face it, I was onto him.
269
00:15:22,838 --> 00:15:24,673
So, he took flight in the dead of night,
270
00:15:24,673 --> 00:15:27,009
but not before planting the doll's head
in Bart's cabin
271
00:15:27,009 --> 00:15:29,011
and knocking out the one witness
to the crime,
272
00:15:29,011 --> 00:15:31,805
washed-up action star Rainier Wolfcastle.
273
00:15:31,805 --> 00:15:34,892
That's fair.
274
00:15:34,892 --> 00:15:37,895
Now Comic Book Guy's probably
on a tropical beach somewhere,
275
00:15:37,895 --> 00:15:38,979
sipping mai tais.
276
00:15:38,979 --> 00:15:43,817
Little does he know that his heinous crime
has been exposed by me,
277
00:15:43,817 --> 00:15:44,902
master sleuth,
278
00:15:44,902 --> 00:15:51,158
and star of the upcoming reboot
"Kiwi's Big Adventure," Taika Waititi.
279
00:15:52,576 --> 00:15:55,037
Wow. He really did it.
280
00:15:58,791 --> 00:16:02,002
Oh, my God.
How could I have been so stupid?
281
00:16:03,128 --> 00:16:05,756
Amazing work, Taika Waititi.
282
00:16:05,756 --> 00:16:10,010
I know you just cracked the case,
but I have a little theory of my own.
283
00:16:10,010 --> 00:16:11,762
Does anyone wanna hear it?
284
00:16:11,762 --> 00:16:12,888
No.
285
00:16:12,888 --> 00:16:14,890
Oh, come on, people. What's the harm?
286
00:16:15,516 --> 00:16:16,725
Thank you, Taika.
287
00:16:16,725 --> 00:16:22,064
Now, as you recall, there were only two
of these irregular Radioactive Man dolls
288
00:16:22,064 --> 00:16:24,191
made in the whole world.
289
00:16:24,191 --> 00:16:25,567
Oh, I remember.
290
00:16:26,276 --> 00:16:30,030
What if the owner of the other doll
received some bad news
291
00:16:30,030 --> 00:16:32,700
and broke their action figure
in a fit of rage?
292
00:16:32,700 --> 00:16:36,537
And then what if that owner came
on this cruise specifically
293
00:16:36,537 --> 00:16:40,290
to swap out their broken figure
for Comic Book Guy's intact one,
294
00:16:40,290 --> 00:16:43,127
so that they could secretly
possess the only Radioactive Man
295
00:16:43,127 --> 00:16:45,546
with Wolverine claws left in existence?
296
00:16:45,546 --> 00:16:48,924
And I just discovered something
quite interesting,
297
00:16:48,924 --> 00:16:53,679
thanks to the ship's onboard Wi-Fi,
which is spotty at best.
298
00:16:53,679 --> 00:16:55,139
Mmm.
299
00:16:55,139 --> 00:16:56,974
According to this website,
300
00:16:56,974 --> 00:17:00,728
that second doll was sold in Wellington,
New Zealand,
301
00:17:00,728 --> 00:17:04,064
{\an8}where they spell color with a U.
302
00:17:04,064 --> 00:17:08,193
{\an8}Now, who on this boat do we know comes
from New Zealand?
303
00:17:08,819 --> 00:17:10,487
{\an8}Well, that's a very clever theory.
304
00:17:10,487 --> 00:17:12,406
{\an8}But if it's a crime
to be from New Zealand,
305
00:17:12,406 --> 00:17:15,659
{\an8}you'd have to arrest both guys
from Flight of the Conchords.
306
00:17:15,659 --> 00:17:17,995
{\an8}What are their names again?
Fred and Jimothy.
307
00:17:19,288 --> 00:17:20,497
You might be right.
308
00:17:20,497 --> 00:17:22,082
But consider that the shield,
309
00:17:22,082 --> 00:17:25,085
that incapacitated the only witness
to the crime,
310
00:17:25,085 --> 00:17:27,880
seems to be covered with goo.
311
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,174
What manner of goo?
312
00:17:31,425 --> 00:17:35,846
Dad, I know this is a weird ask,
but would you mind licking this-- Oh.
313
00:17:35,846 --> 00:17:38,265
Ugh. Ew. Salty.
314
00:17:38,766 --> 00:17:40,059
Yeasty.
315
00:17:40,059 --> 00:17:42,770
Ugh, with hints of malty grossness.
316
00:17:44,354 --> 00:17:45,522
Vegemite.
317
00:17:45,522 --> 00:17:48,400
The favorite food of Taika Waititi.
318
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,738
Or should I say "fav-our-ite"?
319
00:17:54,948 --> 00:17:58,494
Whoa, whoa, whoa. What about
the scratch marks on Bart Simpson's face?
320
00:17:58,494 --> 00:18:01,121
Those had to come
from the tiny claws on the doll he broke.
321
00:18:01,121 --> 00:18:05,292
{\an8}Did they?
Or maybe they came from this seafood fork.
322
00:18:05,292 --> 00:18:09,296
My dad was selfishly shoveling pre-shucked
shellfish down his shrimp shaft--
323
00:18:09,296 --> 00:18:10,464
one take...
324
00:18:10,464 --> 00:18:13,509
...and he accidentally
scratched Bart on his cheek.
325
00:18:14,051 --> 00:18:17,971
That silver-haired,
multi-hyphenate is guilty as sin.
326
00:18:17,971 --> 00:18:22,309
{\an8}Not without one more piece
of damning evidence, I'm not.
327
00:18:23,018 --> 00:18:24,812
You can't just tear my cabin apart.
328
00:18:24,812 --> 00:18:26,146
You need a warrant.
329
00:18:26,146 --> 00:18:29,650
No, we don't.
We're in international waters.
330
00:18:29,650 --> 00:18:31,652
We're in the middle of Lake Springfield.
331
00:18:31,652 --> 00:18:34,071
I can see the Lard Lad statue from here.
332
00:18:34,071 --> 00:18:38,075
Here it is.
Comic Book Guy's original doll, unbroken.
333
00:18:38,075 --> 00:18:40,410
Damn it. Yes, it's true, Lenny.
334
00:18:40,410 --> 00:18:41,495
I did it.
335
00:18:41,495 --> 00:18:44,289
I threw my New Zealand Radioactive Man
across the room
336
00:18:44,289 --> 00:18:47,918
when I found out the streamer was
shelving the second season of my series
337
00:18:47,918 --> 00:18:49,002
without airing it!
338
00:18:49,002 --> 00:18:50,838
For tax purposes?
339
00:18:50,838 --> 00:18:52,339
Yes, for tax purposes!
340
00:18:52,339 --> 00:18:55,134
So I hatched this plan,
because I needed the money
341
00:18:55,134 --> 00:18:58,637
to throw into my already
enormous pile of money.
342
00:18:59,930 --> 00:19:01,974
You haven't seen the last of me!
343
00:19:01,974 --> 00:19:04,393
I've got powerful friends in New Zealand.
344
00:19:04,393 --> 00:19:09,064
Hobbits, Orcs, Lorde,
Ents, Melanie Lynskey.
345
00:19:09,064 --> 00:19:10,607
The "How Bizarre" guy.
346
00:19:10,607 --> 00:19:12,484
We are a powerful nation.
347
00:19:12,484 --> 00:19:14,903
Ow! Ow!
348
00:19:14,903 --> 00:19:19,366
Lisa, your explanation was comprehensive
and utterly persuasive.
349
00:19:19,366 --> 00:19:23,203
But as I was headed to get an orange soda
from the refrigerator,
350
00:19:23,203 --> 00:19:26,623
one nagging problem did occur to me.
You see--
351
00:19:26,623 --> 00:19:29,084
Oh, no.
Don't you dare start pulling threads.
352
00:19:29,084 --> 00:19:31,211
That's not how mysteries work.
353
00:19:31,211 --> 00:19:33,755
Once a smart character
like Sherlock Holmes or Lisa
354
00:19:33,755 --> 00:19:36,633
does a super long explanation
of all the stuff you didn't notice
355
00:19:36,633 --> 00:19:40,220
because you're dumb,
you just believe it and move on.
356
00:19:42,472 --> 00:19:44,808
There is one thing I can't figure out.
357
00:19:44,808 --> 00:19:46,435
What happened to Comic Book Guy?
358
00:19:46,435 --> 00:19:48,896
I mean, we looked everywhere.
359
00:19:48,896 --> 00:19:52,107
Except the one place
he would never go.
360
00:19:54,776 --> 00:19:57,988
Oh, my sarcastic darling.
361
00:19:57,988 --> 00:19:59,531
What happened to you?
362
00:19:59,531 --> 00:20:01,074
Permit me to explain.
363
00:20:01,074 --> 00:20:03,493
More explaining?
364
00:20:04,244 --> 00:20:07,706
When Lisa and
Taika Waititi began questioning suspects,
365
00:20:07,706 --> 00:20:09,541
I set up a surveillance device,
366
00:20:09,541 --> 00:20:13,462
because I wanted to mock
their inept methods of interrogation.
367
00:20:13,462 --> 00:20:15,797
I hate Comic Book Guy.
368
00:20:15,797 --> 00:20:17,799
But then again, so does everyone.
369
00:20:17,799 --> 00:20:21,428
He smells like baked beans
that have been left out in the sun.
370
00:20:21,428 --> 00:20:23,222
I loathe his voice.
371
00:20:23,222 --> 00:20:26,558
Who speaks
with such exaggerated affectation?
372
00:20:26,558 --> 00:20:29,561
No one should ever hear
what people actually think of them.
373
00:20:29,561 --> 00:20:33,440
Apparently, I am not a beloved
quirky character like Kramer.
374
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,236
Instead, I am widely reviled
like the guy who played Kramer.
375
00:20:37,236 --> 00:20:42,908
So I hid here surrounded only by shame
and whatever these metal things are.
376
00:20:43,408 --> 00:20:45,160
Mmm.
377
00:20:45,744 --> 00:20:48,956
I don't wanna get all sincere and emo,
but thanks, Lisa.
378
00:20:48,956 --> 00:20:50,582
{\an8}You never lost faith in me.
379
00:20:50,582 --> 00:20:53,669
Well, if I'm being totally honest...
380
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,421
I never did.
381
00:21:00,342 --> 00:21:04,304
I just want back
my sweet Comic Book Gaijin.
382
00:21:06,848 --> 00:21:10,060
Once again,
a critical lesson is learned via hologram.
383
00:21:10,060 --> 00:21:12,688
I have been a fool.
384
00:21:34,710 --> 00:21:37,170
Best husband ever.
385
00:22:15,459 --> 00:22:17,669
Get out of there and come to bed.
386
00:22:18,754 --> 00:22:20,714
I'll never let go.
387
00:23:04,383 --> 00:23:05,384
Shh!
