[horns honking]
-[grunts] Twenty percent! -Ow!
A fail!
Doesn't turning it in count for something, sure?
-Temwe, Code Red. -Again?
We better make sure she doesn't hurt anyone.
[grunts] Hey! Excuse you, half-pint! Watch your elbows!
[exclaims] Ati whati? What did you call me?
Half-pint. Similar to tiny, minuscule, insignificant.
Though name-calling will not be tolerated in this school.
[grunting]
[grunts]
Perhaps we should add it to the curriculum if students don't know its definition.
-[grunts] -Thank you, Mr. Nkwashi, sir.
I'm sure that will help Temwe on her next test.
Hm.
Wena! You can't let your anger get the best of you.
This is not Temwe's happy time. These people keep trying me. [groans]
How about we get some good chow, hm? Maybe a katumbuwa.
-Hm? -[happy grunt]
I am starting to get hungry angry ka.
[lunch lady] Keep in line!
-No pushing in the lunch queue. -Mm…
[alarms ringing]
[Temwe] Awe. Awe.
Whatever is about to happen, my stomach says no.
Sisi, come on. We'll be back now, now.
[yelps]
Team 4! There is a swarm of locusts attacking the market.
Locusts?
I haven't had a good fight since Storm Drain.
Are we being downgraded from real villains to insects?
Mm-mm. Not just locusts. Metal-eating locusts.
Nah. I already don't do insects, and now they're eating metal? [gasps]
Let's go, Team 4!
[stomach rumbling]
Stay strong, tummy. Stay strong.
[people screaming]
Run away! Move!
Ah, ah, ah, ah…
This is so wrong on so many of my levels.
Team 4, find out what is happening.
[grunts]
Ah! I'll save you!
[yells]
-[yelling in slow-motion] -No!
[grunts]
Oh, yeah.
[grunts] You too, Ba Saasa.
Get away! Get off me.
T-Mlilo, wait.
-[woman screaming] -Maweh. Somebody else, help!
Team 4!
[grunts] Get off me!
Eh weh, T-Mlilo, calm down.
We need to assess the situation.
[both grunting]
Calm is not now.
These vima things are eating and I am not!
I'm not just angry.
And I'm not just hungry.
I'm hangry!
Whoa!
Basa. Look!
You mean, this isn't a real bug?
Eh, this bug has got some sweet nanotech.
Couldn't we repurpose it?
Ah-ha! Grab as many as you can. Cheta…
[upbeat music playing]
Huh? T-Mlilo. Hoverboard! Let's get them.
[groans]
Where are they going?
All I know is I'm not following them down there. Mm-mm.
Let's get back to the marketplace.
[Temwe] And all of that chow!
[Locust Pocus laughing]
Oh, well done, my little children.
We'll need to double our army for the next phase of destruction.
Once this army is ready, we will strike Lusaka.
And with the city left powerless,
the boss will reward us all handsomely.
[cackling]
Huh?
But where is the food?
[grunts]
This girl. Get it together, ekse.
Feed me!
Shh!
They still have vitumbuwa at school.
Oh, okay. Okay. Okay.
[people chattering]
Ten vitumbuwa, please!
[lunch lady] Where were you before? That boy took the last ones.
The last ones?
The last ones? The last ones?
No!
[exhales]
[screaming]
You took things too far this time, Chiti.
Villain. Thief, stealer of food!
It was a rubbish bin.
-It could have been a student. -It was a rubbish bin, sir!
You've damaged school property, Chiti.
-You're suspended for the rest of the day. -But--
Furthermore,
if you actually hurt a student physically, mentally, emotionally,
or even metaphorically,
then you will be expelled.
But, sir, if I get expelled,
my parents will send me to boarding school.
Then you better get your anger under control, Chiti.
I'm sure you'd hate to break up your new friend group.
[humming]
-Mama K. -[yelps]
Nanga, why are you not in school?
I got suspended.
[gasps] Ati susi what?
First a fail. Then Marjory and my elbows.
Then Nkwashi plus hunger.
Locusts ate the market. Vendors gone. Vitumbuwa gone.
And that greedy bin deserved that beating.
Nkwashi suspended me,
and if I mess up again, then I'll be expelled.
Expelled? No! Awe.
Yes. Then my parents will send me to boarding school.
This is all Nkwashi's fault. The Eagle has it out for me.
[stomach rumbling]
-Sorry, I forgot about you again. -Mm. Come, come, come.
Mama Bwela. Sit down.
[squeals]
Just like your temper, this food is too hot to eat.
You must wait for it to cool, or you will get burned.
A hot head will get you nowhere, Temwe.
Except swimming in a swamp of crocodiles.
But this isn't about crocodiles. It's about Mr. Nkwashi.
This is about you and your anger.
You must learn to control it.
Don't go swimming in a swamp, no matter how hot you are.
I wasn't hot.
I was hangry.
[munching]
-[girls] Mama K. -[gasps]
[yelping]
Why would you attack my heart like that?
-Sorry, Mama K. -We came to see if Temwe is all right.
[Temwe] You're expelled!
-You and your friend! -Yes. Go talk to her.
The last thing we want is a team member expelled from the school.
Expelled?
No. Aweh! That is a forbidden word.
To be honest, I'm surprised, but not surprised, but I'm surprised.
-[gasping] -[Temwe grunting]
You're expelled!
And you'll lose your friends, and Team 4, and Mama K!
-[panting] -She's going through more than we thought.
Basa, we need a containment strategy for Temwe.
Mr. Nkwashi will have no choice but to… "E-word" her.
Muntu wathu's got ma anger issues.
-[grunts] -[clattering]
It gets worse when she's not fed.
What do we do? We can't keep her in ma HQ forever.
She has got to chill out.
Leave it to me.
I'm all about the channelization of the feels.
When the outer world gets chaotic,
I use martial arts to find my calm center.
[inhales]
Out with the Marjory,
in with the harmony.
[soft grunt]
[grunting]
[clattering]
We reprogrammed the nanotech to give you a lekker new drone.
[laughing]
-Whoo! -Easy, Mama K.
Drones don't grow on trees.
Mama K!
Temwe. What do I do with you?
You need to find your happy place.
In here and in here.
I thought my happy place was in here and in here.
Hmm…
[people chattering]
Now this is my happy place.
Your heart and emotions are what make you powerful,
but you have to learn
to use them the right way.
I don't want to lose my new friend.
Close your eyes and focus your mind.
Search for a mantra that calms you.
[inhales]
[grunting softly]
I live to eat.
I-I love to eat.
I love food, and food loves me.
[Monde] Open your eyes, Temwe.
Mm.
-They had it in the black color as well. -Oh, no.
-Don't let Marjory break you, Temwe. -I can't wait to buy them.
I'm going to look amazing.
[exhales]
I live to eat. I love to eat. I love food, and food loves me.
Ka smally, are you lost? The primary school is across the road.
I live to eat. I love to eat. I love food, and food loves me.
Nice one, Marjory.
I live to eat. I love to eat--
[grunts]
Chiti, have you been working on
controlling that short, short temper?
[all gasping]
[grunts]
I live to eat. I love to eat. I love food, and food loves me.
Don't worry about me, Mr. Nkwashi, sir.
I'm against all types of violence. Peace in the streets, eh?
Hm.
Ha-la-la-la!
The channelization of inner peace is real!
The containment strategy actually worked.
Now nothing is gonna stop Team 4.
I live to eat. I love to eat. I love food, and food loves me.
[upbeat music playing]
Geoffrey here, live from the lower hydropower station
at Kafue Gorge, currently undergoing improvements,
reporting on what seems to be
a ravenous horde of locusts,
dining on the dam itself!
And on TV reporters! [grunts]
[yelling] -[Geoffrey] Back to you in studio.
T.O.M.I., call Team 4!
[alarms ringing]
It's Mama K!
[grunting]
-Wena, let's go! -[yells]
[grunting]
[Mama K] Team 4, those locusts are attacking the Kafue Gorge.
If these creatures eat through that dam,
more than half of Lusaka will lose their electricity.
Hurry, girls.
[all] Mama K's Team 4!
[upbeat music playing]
♪ Yeah, you already know Mama K's Team 4 ♪
♪ Let's go ♪
-[all] Huh? -I live to eat. I love to eat.
-I love food, and food loves me. -[groaning]
How do we get Ms. Inner Peace to hurry up?
[humming]
Team 4!
[upbeat music playing]
[Mama K] Girls, get in the van. Fast! T.O.M.I. will take you to the dam.
Prioritize rescue, then stop the locusts and find whoever is behind this attack!
[grunting]
This is worse than I thought!
-M-Kozo, help get the workers to safety. -I'm on it!
-Za-Mpezi. We need to do damage control. -Got it.
People, calm down.
[breathing deeply]
-[man yelling] -[Temwe] Breathe.
I need your hoverboard.
That's cool, just take it.
I'm going to chill right here.
-I live to eat. I love to eat. -Whoa, whoa!
T-Mlilo makes this look so easy.
[grunting]
[beeping] -Ah-ha!
[grunting]
Run!
Kabubebe! Save yourselves!
How? There's too many of them. What are we gonna do?
Langa, they're coming from the top.
[Locust Pocus cackling]
Set your eyes on the power of the Locust Pocus.
[cackling]
Locust Pocus. Nice wordplay, Uncle.
Iye, man, why are all these villains coming out of retirement?
Hey! Why attack that dam with your bugs?
[cackling]
For a greater purpose than you'll ever know.
Until it is time for you to know.
And then you'll know.
That's your answer? Thanks for nothing, Bugman.
Hey! Look, I'm just following orders.
[both] Orders?
Girls, enough chatting. Stop him, fast, fast.
If those robobugs chew through the dam, people will lose their power.
[laughing] Fly, my little children, fly!
[grunts]
We can't swat them forever. [grunts]
Wait! Can we fight bugs with a bug?
Uh-huh. Bug the nano's signal.
[computer beeping]
[Zee] Ah-ha!
Hang on.
Almost got it.
Got it. Yes!
Eya boom!
Aweh! We need a wider range like you'd get with an antenna or a…
[both] Satellite!
I need this.
Aweh, peace in the streets, mune. [sighs]
-[grunts] -Uh…
-Kick it! -[grunts]
Great job! Super proud.
-Team 4 in the byu byu! -[cheering]
[Locust Pocus] How dare you destroy the offspring of Locust Pocus?
Prepare to be annihilated!
[laughing]
I know that look.
Ha!
[tense music playing]
[cackles] Missed me!
[grunting]
Ha! Is that the best you've got?
[screaming]
I love food, and food loves me.
[cackling]
-Whoopsie! -[coughing]
[groans] This guy stinks like a sewer.
[Locust Pocus] Don't diss the sewers, girl.
They have power.
-[grunts] -K-Bongo! Uliche? You okay?
We need more fighting power.
We need T-Mlilo.
[Temwe] I live to eat. I love to-- Oh, hi!
But she's found her happy place.
If she loses that, she might lose control, and then,
we might lose her.
We have no choice. How do we make her angry?
-Not angry. Hangry! -[Ba Saasa] Maweh!
[all] Vitumbuwa!
I need some vitumbuwa, please.
Have it all!
Ah, Ba Saasa. Funny bumping into you here.
Mm! Mm-mm.
These vitumbuwa are so good.
-Mm. -Can I have some?
What? Sorry. This is a battle treat.
-I live to eat. -Mm.
I live to eat.
I am getting full now.
-I love to eat. -I guess I'll have to throw it away.
-Throw it away. -Throw it away?
But-but I'm hungry.
That makes me so angry. No
It makes me hangry!
[all] The hanger is back!
Battle treat!
Whoa! Oh!
Huh?
K-Bongo. Hoverboard.
-[sniffing] -Prepare to land!
[grunting]
I'm done with villains.
-You know what else I'm done with? -No! Stop!
Principals, Marjorys, and rubbish bins.
I'm done!
[cheering]
[grunting]
Now I'll have my battle treat.
[whirring]
[yells]
[Temwe] Yeah!
Kabiyeni. Elo, don't come back!
There are so many leaks.
We've got rid of the pests, but we still have a problem.
We just need something sticky to hold the water back
until the workers can seal the holes.
[munching]
[gasps]
Hey, I wasn't finished.
Hi-ya!
[grunting]
[grunts]
-Oh, yeah! -[cheering]
Wait.
[sniffling]
Sorry. We didn't know what else to do but to bring out hangry T-Mlilo.
It's cool. It's like my super superpower.
-Mm-hm. -[all laughing]
Although, wena, you do have to balance it out.
Musa, we can't have you getting expelled. You're too important to the team.
From now on, we'll help you find balance.
Zoona, ekse! Pay more attention to your feelings.
You can talk to us about anything. We've got your back.
We are always here for you, sisi, if you need to blow some steam.
Or need a snack or ten.
[laughing]
Team 4 in the byu byu!
[sniffing] Oh!
Mm…
[tense music playing]
Hm.
