Oh, back where I belong! On stage!
I can't wait for opening night!
Every seat filled to capacity.
Standing room only!
And the crowd is going wild!
Oh, I can see it now!
A guy with a great voice will announce us.
He'll be like "Are you ready?"
And they'll just be screaming, "Yes! Yes, we are!"
Everyone will be waiting for us to come out on stage,
but we'll come running down the aisle,
high-fiving everyone as people scream,
-"We love you, Alvin!" -And Theodore!
We love you too, Theodore!
But mostly Alvin!
But also Theodore.
-Hello? -Yes? Can I help you?
I am the stage manager.
Well, we're pretty excited about the show.
-How's it coming? -Oh, no.
This is very awkward for me. So, no one told you?
-Told us, what? -Oh, don't kill the messenger.
-This was not my decision. -OK...
When I was told, I was against it.
I said, "I don't think it's a good idea."
They said, "We're not asking you."
"Do you want to keep your job?"
I said, "Of course. I've been here for 45 years."
What are you talking about? And what weren't we told?
Your show's cancelled. You're being replaced.
Wh... what?
OK, so here it is.
There's a new group called the Hip Monks.
The theatre owners are booking them.
Why, I do not know.
They're doing it for all their shows.
Ho, ho! Good one!
Guys, of course, this is a celebrity prank show, OK?
There are cameras all over the place. Like here.
OK, well, maybe not there, but right over here!
Honey, listen to me. There are no cameras.
I wish this were a prank. I feel horrible.
She says that to keep the prank going. Come on!
But if it wasn't a prank,
why would a camera be hidden right over here!
Here it is!
Or here! Hmm. OK. All right.
Oh... Hello? Hmm.
That's enough. Let's go.
It's gotta be a prank! Come on! The Hip Monks?
The Hip Monks? Wait! What? Is this for real?
No, it isn't for real! It's a prank!
No, no. We're not being pranked. It's very real.
-I'll be right back, guys. -Where are you going, Dave?
To speak to the theatre owners and get to the bottom of this.
We're coming!
Good Luck!
[knocking, then door opens]
All right, we've all had a little laugh.
That's funny, pulling one over on the celebrities.
That's great. But I want to see the footage
for that prank show, now!
-Uh, what? -Why was our show cancelled?
Sorry for the misunderstanding,
but we just signed them to our label,
so we want to showcase them.
Now that we have the Hip Monks, we don't need you.
Why are you talking?
-I just... -I just said the same thing!
It's simple economics. You understand.
But can we just meet the Hip Monks and say hi?
No, sweet thing, you can't.
But help yourself to cookies on the way out.
OK, come on, guys. Let's go.
I don't want to be around these people anymore.
OK, OK, we'll leave.
But I want to let you know--
-Let's go. -For a comedy prank show,
-this is not funny! -Wait! I just had a great idea!
How would you feel about playing against the Hip Monks?
You know, "battle of the bands" style?
Yes! Yes! Totally. Yes! Count us in!
And, when we win,
we get to play the theatre whenever we want!
-Deal. -I'm sorry,
why are you talking? Because I'm talking.
-But I-- -I'm talking right now.
-I just-- -OK.
Yes. Deal!
I can't believe it!
[crunching]
Their... their cookies are good.
You guys! Look! They posted a video.
Today on our show, we meet three singing chipmunks.
No, not Alvin and his brothers.
But Calvin and The Hip Monks.
Wa... wait. His name is Calvin and the Hip Monks?
This must be against the law!
So, you must be big fans of The Chipmunks, right?
No. Those Chipmunks are lame!
La... What?
Can you believe those losers called us out
and challenged us to a battle of the bands?
-That's not what happened! -They...
They going down! Grr!
Oh, my.
Why are they being so mean?
Because they're mean, jealous fools!
Watch us dance!
Whoa! OK, they're really good.
Oh, please! I can do that.
-Whoa! -The Chipmunks are going down!
Grr!
-Are we going down? -No, we are not!
Our fans are loyal, Theodore. They love us!
I can already hear them screaming for us!
-Ha, ha! I can hear it too! -Uh, yeah. We all can.
It's coming from outside?
[screaming and cheering]
Did you guys see that? He pointed at me.
I mean, I mean, right at me! Ho, ho! OK! OK!
This is a threat!
They're trying to intimidate us!
-Yeah, it's working. -No, no, it is not, OK?
I say we follow that crowd and go talk to the chip-posters!
Wait. What?
Well, I was trying to make it sound like impostors,
but, combining it with chipmunks.
So, now, I was limited there,
because I couldn't say chimpostors.
-Keep up! -What?
Hey! What's Miss Croner doing?
I am not going to miss the meet and greet
-'cause you're dragging behind! -Go on without me. I'm pooped.
Oh, hush! I won't have any excuses!
Let's go!
OK, guys, now be cool, OK?
If we act like we're on the list,
no one will question it!
-Hey, my man, what's up? -Hey! There's a list!
I know that. We're on the list.
-What's your name? -Come on. You know who I am.
It's Alvin Seville. S-E--
Nope. You're not here. Step aside, guys.
OK, well, try me. Um, Theodore Seville. S-E-V--
Whoa!
[whispering]
Yo, we're the Hip Monks, homie. We, uh, forgot something inside.
-We'll just be a second. -I know it's you, Alvin.
-Oh, so you do know my name! -Yeah!
'Cause he just said it two seconds ago!
Please! We just need to go talk to them!
-One minute, max! -No!
Not on the list, not getting in.
Croner, plus one.
Come on in, ladies.
-Are you kidding me? -They're on the list!
-They're always on the list. -OK, OK.
I can tell when we're not wanted.
Come on, guys! Run! Run inside!
-Stop! -You guys can still make it!
-Ow! -Let's go, guys.
[cheering]
We've gotta follow that car!
Pick up the pace. Let's go! Come on! Quickly.
But they're heavy.
-Go! Go! Go! -Alvin, no!
They put them over here.
Why do they keep the Hip Monks in their office?
This... this isn't a home!
Maybe they don't want to be here.
So this just became a rescue mission.
Well, game on! Let's do it, guys!
All right. I'm gonna have to pick the lock,
which means I'll need to borrow your glasses, Simon.
Sadly, I'll have to break them apart to use as a tool.
Oh, good work, Simon!
Simon?
We are gonna get you outta here!
[gasps]
-Did someone say dance? -Ow, ow! No! No, no!
Stop dancing!
Oh, the Chipmunks are going down!
Oh! We are trying to help you!

So, do you have an idea? Or...

Hello students, if I could please have your attention -
Give me that!
Attention students!
We are in desperate need of volunteers for the school dance.
I am not going to do the whole thing myself!
The dance is not for me! It's for the students!
So we need student volunteers.
Sign-ups are in the principal's office.
Well, I would love to sign up all of you lovely ladies
to come to the dance with me.
[laughter]
-Hi. Wanna trade? -What?
I'll trade you this sandwich for your cookie or your sandwich.
-Anything, really. -Like not to be totally rude,
but nobody wants your weird, healthy food.
Like, what even is this?
-A banana? -Gross.

If I get you a cookie, will you go with me?

Thanks! What? Give that back!
-Hey, Jennie! -Not yours.
Hey!
-Oh, it's a fight! -Fight! Fight! Fight!
No! No fighting. Talk it out! Talk it out! Talk it out!

Everyone freeze! Everyone!
We cannot tolerate this behaviour!
I say we cancel the dance.
It's the only way to get through to this class.
-Cancel the dance? -OK, OK. Thank you, Miss Smith.
I'll take it from here.
She is right about your behaviour!
It is unacceptable.
And so, I have decided to volunteer you both
to help Miss Smith with the dance.
-What? -So here are the rules.
You two will work together as though you are the best of friends.
I want no fighting. I want you both to set an example
for the entire school or there will be no dance!
Alvin! Derek! Come with me!
Listen up! These are all the supplies we have for the dance.
You have less than 48 hours to get this place in order.
But if you two don't act like best friends,
the dance is cancelled!
And remember, I've got spies!
Student spy number eight, show yourself!
48 hours.
Oh, Derek and Alvin are never gonna make it.
Hold on. Hold on. We just need to help them through this.
I'll help Alvin.
Anyone want to help Derek?
No one? OK. Cheesy, thank you. You're it.
Good man! Way to step up! Whoo!
What? I didn't say anything.
OK, Alvin, until this dance is over,
I'll give you instructions via this earpiece.
-I don't wanna do this. -Oh, I know you don't.
But we're all relying on ya, Alvin, so put it in!
Oh...
Now, walk over to Derek and say, real nice, "Hey! What's up?"
Go on! Miss Smith needs to see that you guys are getting along.
Why do I have to go to him? Why can't he come to me?
-Because you're the mature one. -Oh, all right.
Cheesy, Alvin is approaching Derek.
Is Derek ready?
-He won't let me talk to him. -Man up and tell him now!
Hey, Derek, real quick, I just need ya to smile when you--
OK. He knows.
OK, let's see if we can get a smile from Derek
as he sees his good friend approaching.
And cue smile. I repeat, cue smile. Cue smile!
-Cue smile! -Hey, so, uh, Derek -
Alvin, say something!
Hey, Derek.
-Hey, Alvin. -[sighs of relief]
Hey, Alvin.
Oh, funny, Derek!
-They're fighting! -[gasps]
Yeeha! Atta boy! Atta boy!
Aaah!
Stop it, Derek!
Stop! Guys, Miss Smith!
Hi! Miss Smith, hi!
Oh...
[bell rings]
What do you know about Alvin and Derek?
Huh? What? Nothing!
I... I don't know anything.
-They're fighting, aren't they? -Uh, no.
Yes, they are! We can cancel the dance!
No, no! They're the best of friends!
Yeah? Then what are they doing after school?
Oh, uh, after school? They're, uh...
Oh! Oh! They're... They're rollerblading in the park!
You know, like... like best friends do.
Rollerblading in the park?
I... I got nervous!
So I just said what I thought best friends do.
Aaah!
Aaah! Aaah! Aaah! Aaah!
Keep smiling, Alvin. Remember, spies are watching.
Woo-hoo! How fun! Woo-hoo!
A sleepover?
You gotta stop talking to them!
I'm trying! I don't know!
I panicked again!
Ha, ha! Yes! You are goin' down!
You're goin' down if you don't give me that!
-Derek, dream on! -Too aggressive, Alvin.
How about I sit on you?
We can't let the spies see this!
Cover him!
Have you guys seen Alvin?
No. No. No. No, we haven't.
-What makes you think we have? -Oh, OK.
Oh, sorry. Hi, I'm Dave.
Uh, Derek.
Derek. Derek the bully?
-Get off me! -Are you sitting on my son?
Be cool, Dave. Just be cool.
There... there are spies everywhere.
Sorry for any inconvenience. Let's go, Derek!
You're such a loser!
I mean, you can't even be normal for one night?
Ow!
I feel bad for Derek.
Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Oh, I see.
They didn't complete a sleepover?
Hardly a reason to cancel the dance!
Give me something I can work with!
-Derek? -Leave me alone, you jerk!
They're fighting. Get Miss Smith!
That's it! Derek, you're coming with me.
You're in big trouble! You'll be--
Miss Smith, wait!
Derek and I were getting ready for the dance.
-What? -Yeah, decorating!
Yeah, I mean, Derek and I were touched, you know,
very moved when you said,
"Kids, be more creative. Think outside the box."
I never said that!
-Yeah, yeah. I think ya did. -No, I did not!
-Yeah, yeah, ya did. -No, I... uh, whatever.
-So, you weren't fighting? -Us? Fighting?
Oh, please. Absolutely not.
Well, OK. Just use the normal decorations, please.
And clean up this mess!
Oh, Miss Smith, just real quick!
Who are your spies?
Well, if I told you who they were,
they wouldn't be spies, would they?
Hey, um, you know, thanks for, uh, thanks for saving me.
Let's fool them all and make this work.
Ha! Let's do it.
Hello, guys. I'm sort of putting two and two together
and figuring you're probably Miss Smith's spies. Right?
Dances are not fun when no one wants to dance with you.
I'll dance with you.
-Are you being serious? -Yes!
Now, quit your moping. Come on, let's go.
Hey, guys! Great job!
Thanks for keeping it together.
-You guys are so awesome. -Good work, Seville.
Couldn't have done it without ya, pal.
-Derek! -Why'd ya move your hand?
Derek, ya have to aim for the elbow. OK?
That's how ya hit the hand! Then high five!
Don't tell me how to high-five.
Then do it right!
Why are you running? I'll teach you to high-five!
Miss Smith, Miss Smith!
Alvin and Derek are fighting again!
Who cares? It's too late to cancel the dance.
-Miss Smith! Help! -No. I don't think so.
Help! Miss Smith!
