Huh?
Oh, oh, oh, oh! Alvin's up to something
and I'm going to find out what.
Let's see what we've got here. Ho, ho! Great!
Oh, where's he going now?
Aaah!
[coughs]
Oh, no!
Brittany, what do you think you're doing?
Me? You're the one who snuck in here first!
Yeah, 'cause I was just spying...
I mean, investigating something important!
Yeah, you were spying on Simon. But why?
Because, Miss Nosey, he's building a time machine
and I want to see how it works.
How do you know it's a time machine?
Because, when I was spy... You know, investigating last night,
I found these!
[gasps] This is amazing!
Yes, I already know that, OK?
A dinosaur in modern, fake Paris?
They're all messed up now.
Now, get lost! I need to see how this thing works.
-Why? -Well,
not that it's your business, but I have to go back in time
-and do some things over. -Like what?
Well, again, when I was doing a little spy... investigating,
I accidentally hacked into Simon's computer
and, you know, erased his term paper.
-What? -[gasps] You did?
I'll be grounded for life if I don't fix this.
Now leave me alone!
Huh? Where'd he go?
He's gone! His machine is smoking!
Oh, this is all your fault!
-What? Why is it my fault? -Oh, why is it your fault?
Because you snuck up on me and made me scream!
You know, and that made Simon scream and,
probably threw his arms all over and broke the machine.
But not before accidentally hitting a button
that must have sent him through time!
Well, Alvin, if that's what happened, then it's your fault,
because you were the one spying on him in the first place!
Not spying. You haven't been listening, Brittany.
Spy-vestigating. There's a big difference.
You know what? I don't have time now to explain to you
why it's 100 % your fault, because Simon's out there,
you know, somewhere, and we have to find him!
[gasps] Look at this!
He must be jumping through all different decades in time!
[gasps] What's this?
Oh, this must be an antiquey kind of thing he brought back
-from ancient times. -Simon! Simon!
He's not gonna answer, 'cause he's in... let's see...
1874 or 1492,
or then he went to, you know, 0000!
Brittany, we've got to get Simon back!
Oy, this is not good.
Eleanor, that is so... so very not helpful!
Boy, what... what time period do you think he's in?
I don't know!
He could be running from dinosaurs at this moment!
[gasps] Dinosaurs?
[screaming]
Oh, this... this is terrible!
No, no, Theodore! We don't know he's running from dinosaurs.
-Maybe he's... -Running from cavemen!
[gasps]
[screaming]
How do we know he's back in time?
I mean, maybe he's in the future?
Hello? Hello?
Any... anybody here?
Well, this is just great!
I don't even know what planet this is!
I should probably document this.
What?
What's that? I gotta get outta here!
Aaah!
The point is, he could be anywhere!
Our only chance is to get this machine up and running!
-I can try to fix it. -No, wait!
We... we have to tell Dave.
-But he's in the studio, and... -[all] Call him!
[phone rings]
-Hello? -Hey, hey, Dave. How ya doing?
Alvin, I can't really talk now.
Right. Of course. Of course.
You know, I'll make this quick.
So, I was in the vent, you know,
just wondering what was down there and, you know,
I'm not spying or anything...
Bring up the lead guitar and double the voices.
Oh, and bring the background vocals down a little.
So, so, then, Simon was gone!
What? Oh, oh... Well, um, yeah, I'm sure he'll be back.
-Take all the echo off. -..is broken!
What? Broken? Well, no use crying over spilt milk, Alvin.
Look, look, I gotta go,
but let's plan on talking when I get home, OK?
Oh, he took that really well.
Well, did he have any advice?
Yeah, said we shouldn't cry about it.
Oh... OK, uh, well, let's see how Jeanette's coming.
-So, did you fix it, Jeanette? -Well, I don't know.
I put together every piece, but I need more time!
We don't have time! We just have to go after him!
Britt, come on, get in the box!
-Me? Why me? -Brittany,
this is your moment to take responsibility for your mistake!
You know, to right your wrong!
You make a mistake and then you fix it!
This way, you go down in history as the bravest person
known to mankind-ish... womankind! Now, come on!
-Get in the box! -What? Alvin, no!
-You get in the box. -Oh, all right.
OK, so, uh...
I set the time to the first date you two remember seeing. 1884.
Does anyone have anything to say before I pull the lever?
Oh, wait! Hold on! Hold on!
Land was crazy cheap in 1884, so, here's ten bucks.
-Get what ya can. -[gasps] Eleanor!
Oh, don't judge me! It's a great opportunity.
Hmm, yeah. OK, um, something by the water.
-Theodore? -No, I'm... I'm broke.
Just... just bring Simon back.
OK... Uh... Here goes.
[blast]
-[gasps] He's gone! -It worked!
-You guys! We did it! -No, no, guys!
I ran out. I got scared. I wasn't ready.
[sigh]
You see? I'm inventing a photo booth that allows the subject
to choose the period they'd like to be in.
Then, all you have to do is dial in the date and place...
In this case, 1749, France,
and, well, the machine fills in the background.
Very nice!
Yes, yes, well, it would have been,
but my brother scared me and now,
when you take a picture,
the time periods are all blended together.
Anyway, I accidentally broke an essential component that,
you know, I was hoping you had in stock?
Oh, no. I'm sorry. Perhaps the antique shop across the street?
Oh! I was just there and they sent me here. OK.
OK, so, let's... let's try again.
-Are ya ready, Alvin? -Ugh. Just do it!
No! Not yet. Let me... Hold it... OK, do it!
-Do it! -[blast]
-It didn't work. -Then let's try another year.
-Well, I tried. -Yeah,
but we have to keep on trying.
Wait, wait! I need to be prepared.
Who knows what we'll face out there?
♪ Don't watch the second hand ♪
♪ I got another plan ♪
♪ We gonna shake it up, don't need a runway to fly ♪

OK, let's, uh, try this again.
No! No! I can't take it anymore!
And the machine, it's not even working!
[sobs] Oh!
[gasps] Simon, you made it!
Oh, you know, we've been trying to send Alvin back in time
to find you all day.
Theodore, it's not a time machine.
-It's a photo booth. -A photo booth?
Oh, well, Alvin will be so happy!
No, no, no. No, don't tell him just yet, Theodore.
I'm gonna get Alvin back!
He's on his way up.
And for my magical appearance...
[blast]
-Oh, Simon, you're back! -Quick! Quick, Alvin!
-What year is it? -What?
You haven't even been gone a day!
If only that were true!
I've been travelling for a century now!
And let me tell you, the adventure is not over yet!
-It isn't? -No.
I'm afraid I've disrupted the space-time continuum!
Oh, not the space-time continuum!
Oh, and just to be clear, even though I know,
what is a space-time continuum?
It's the fabric that holds our universe together, OK?
It's the universal glue, so to speak. All right?
So, I need your help to keep it together.
-Oh, of course, of course! -All right, well, look,
first, I need you to help bring in some extra current,
so we can repair the solar system!
-Oh, you got it! -Oh, oh, oh, Alvin, Alvin.
I told the others that this wasn't a time machine.
I think I told them it was a photo booth or something silly.
Gotcha!
Simon? Simon? Are you still in the basement?
Huh? What? Yeah, yeah, yeah. In the basement.
Oh, OK. Um, have we fixed the space-time continuum yet?
My arms are really, really tired.
[yawns] Almost. Almost. I'm really busy down here,
-fixing, you know, the machine. -Oh, OK.
Oh, come on, Alvin. Alvin, stay awake, OK?
The whole world is depending on you!
-So then, he... Oh, wait. -[phone rings]
Hello? Yes.
What? I did?
Oh, oh... Oh, wow!
Thank you, sir! OK, I will!
Wait. Where do I send the information?
Send it to my mama?
Hello? Hello?
Wow! You guys! I just won a vacation
to Mount Butt-Chump-Loser Island!
Mount Butt-Chump-Loser Island?
-Uh-huh! -Oh, Theodore!
It's a prank phone call. You can't be that gullible!
-[phone rings] -Oh, wait. Hold on.
Hello?
Are you kidding? Guys! Guys!
Lady Rara just saw my latest video
and wants to go out on a date with me in New... New...
OK, what'd you say your name was?
Hello? Hello?
Ugh! Who would do something like that?
[phone rings]
I bet it's the same person! Quick, what's the number?
-It's probably, Derek! -It's a blocked number!
-Well, answer it! -No, guys,
we're just gonna have dinner. No phones. Just turn 'em off.
Dave, don't you want to know who it is?
It's a punk prank caller
and I don't want to spend dinner being bothered by it.
-[chuckling] -OK, be quiet.
-You be quiet. -Both be quiet.
-Shh! -Come on!
Ah, just pick up the phone guys! They're not answering.
OK, so let's call their home phone
and keep calling until they pick up.
[giggle]
[phone rings]
Dave, please, let me answer it!
No, Alvin. There's no phones during dinner.
But what if it's someone important?
-Then they'll call back. -[ringing continues]
Like someone warning us about a virus outbreak
turning everyone into zombies!
Think about it, Dave. Zombies!
That's a chance I'm willing to take.
Oh...
[phone keeps ringing]
Can we please be excused?
Yes, Theodore.
All right, boys, time to prank call this prank caller!
Oh, oh, and Alvin, no prank calling!
What? Huh? Oh, no! Didn't hear you!
We're calling them back, right?
-Of course we are! -Oh, good.
Because I think I can unblock their phone number
with this computer software I have.
Oh, Simon, this is great!
Give him a call back on this. I blocked it.
But, Alvin, use the voice changer to talk to him.
-Hello? -Listen up you little punk.
This is commander... Well, the guy in command, OK,
of the whole military. OK? Have you got that?
Tell him he won a trip to Mount Butt-Chump-Loser Island.
Shh! And I know what you did!
And I won't let you get away with it! Ya got me?
Tell him he's got a date on Butt-Chump-Loser Island.
-Population... him! -Theodore, stop!
Now, if I hear so much as a peep out of you,
I will rain down upon you with a horribleness
that... that will just, you know, curl your toes
and make you, very, very sorry!
Are we clear?
Crystal clear. And now let me make something clear.
D-D-Derek?
This is not Derek. This is a retired secret agent
who has the skills and the tools to find you
and I've got nothing better to do
than to teach punks like you a lesson!
I will make you pay!
Wait, wait! No, no! That's totally unnecessary.
See, that... Hello? Hello? Hello?
Were the last two digits 8-7 or 5-7?
5-7. Alvin! Did you call the wrong number?
-Maybe... -[gasps] Maybe?
[gasps] Oh, no! Oh, no!
[rings] You said it was untraceable!
It is! He must have some advanced technology.
Oh, Dave told us not to do this!
[phone rings, then stops]
Oh...
-[phone rings] -Aaah!
-That's the house phone! -Dave! Dave!
Don't pick up the phone! We've got it!
Here, here! You talk to him!
-No! You talk to him! -Theodore, you talk to him.
Here!
Ahem. Yes, hello?
I'm coming for you.
No!
I think we just have to leave.
It's just not safe here anymore.
And poor Dave. He's not safe, you know, as long as we're here.
Guys, guys, you know, let's think about, you know,
all of our options before we do anything, you know, drastic.
Oh, before we do anything drastic?
Well, that's good, because, we just have a man
that we know nothing about, that's coming after us!
OK? And, you know, sounds like he means business!
You know, but, we don't want to do anything drastic!
-[doorbell rings] -[all gasp]
-Is that him? -It can't be.
-He doesn't know where we live! -This guy isn't kidding around!
He has the technology! He told me so!
Boys! A Sergeant Dokes is here for you.

Miss Croner! Help!
Theodore! Theodore! We can't drag Miss Croner into this!
We don't even know what this guy's capable of!
Where is he?
Hmm.
Looks like those gophers are back.
I know what will scare them away.
Nothing gophers hate more than loud noises.
I'll use my party poppers!
Do you think he saw us?
-[popping] -That guy is shooting at us!
-Aaah! -Run! Run home!
That will teach those gophers to mess with my rose bushes!
OK, all right, we gotta tell Dave that we...
[police sirens]
The police are involved?
[gasps] Why? Is... is prank calling illegal?
-It's certainly frowned upon. -OK!
We can't tell Dave anything!
Let's just sneak around the back.
-[barking] -[knocking]
Oh, officer, thank you for coming.
The boys got scared and ran off!
I'll tell you what, if anyone can find 'em,
it's this little hound here. Who's a good hound?
Who's my good little hound?
Got a nose that could sniff out a pimple on a gopher in Timbuktu.
Who could sniff out a pimple on a gopher in Timbuktu?
-It's you. It's you! -Oh, sorry... What?
Nothing. It's a saying from home. Never mind.
Let's get down to business. First things first,
I'll need an article of clothing.
You thought you could mess with me and get away with it?
So, boom! Now she's got the scent, and bam!
She'll lead us right to them. That's how this works.
No! OK, you're gettin' confused.
This is where they live.
We're tryin' to find where they've gone to! OK?
OK, something's broken with her! Aaah!
Please don't hurt us! This was a terrible misunderstanding,
you know, an accident, a...
I told you I was gonna make you pay and I will.
What... what's this?
I did the calculations
and that's how much your prank call cost me.
976,000?
We can't get that kind of money! Are you nuts?
I mean, not you, but that's just, you know,
it's a very tall order from very short people.
Alvin, Alvin... That says $9.76.
That's payment for the phone bill and my time that you wasted.
Wait, wait, wait. That's it?
That's all you want? Nine dollars?
And 76 cents.
Oh, oh, yes. Totally. Of course! Absolutely.
Theodore, get this man his money.
What? Me? Why do I have to get the money?
Will you just go get it?
I don't want to have this argument now.
Hey! Stop! Sit!
They're not in here now! They live here!
They've gone somewhere!
OK, no! They're not in the house.
What is wrong with you today?
Eight, nine... and 76 cents.
Come on! We're going back to the station
to talk about what your problem is,
'cause this is not OK--
Oh, hey! Hey, Dave! They're in here!
I am so sorry for doubtin' you!
Who's so sorry for doubtin' you? Come on!
I'm taking you to get a treat! Let's go.
-Boys! -Dave!
So, did you guys straighten everything out?
Yes, my job here is done.
And again, sir, just, please, um, our sincerest apologies.
We were trying to stop someone who was prank calling us.
Is that right? You want to find this guy?
[chuckles] I can find anyone.
[phone rings]
-Hello? -I know what you did.
-Uh, who is this? -That shouldn't concern you.
What should concern you is that if you don't stop
this little prank-calling parade of punkery,
I'm going to come to your house
and I will personally make you pay.
-Oh, no! -And from what I've heard,
you'll be paying for quite a lot of time.
-Do I make myself clear? -Yes, sir.
-Good.
Now, look me in my eye and say that.
What? Wait! What does that mean?
Out here.
[screaming]
We know another couple of guys who might be prank calling.
Alvin, no! We don't have any proof!
Derek, Bocarter... Oh, Ray Ray!
-Alvin! -Oh, oh, I know. Jamie!
Stop!
