Previously... On Monkeys in a Barrel...
[last episode sped up]
Clay: What do I do if my butt itches?
[box falls on Clay]
Clay: Hey, cool! I can make chicken noodle soup with this!
[box falls]
Clay: What is chicken noodle soup? Well, what's in this container?
[Clay walks to front of box]
Clay: How do I open it? Hey, there's a button on the wall.
[walks off screen]
[white flash]
Clay: I remember everything now! If your butt itches, you scratch it! Of course!
[Clay walks on screen]
Clay: Hey, what's in this? Maybe it's monkeys. Monkeys- In a Barrel.
[music starts playing].
Clay: What's a monkey? Where's this music coming from? Well, nothing to do now but practice butt-scratching.
[Clay scratches crotch area]
Clay: Wait, this is the wrong side. Can you help me out, Sergeant?
[record scratches/music stops]
Clay: Wait a minute. That disc can be damaged if that happens. Where is every-Now I remember! There was a big flash of light and I forgot! But it mustn't have been the flash! It must have blinded me, and then someone-
[thumping]
Clay: I knew it! It is monkeys in a barrel!
[music starts]
Clay: No, wait. It can't be.
[record scratches/music stops]
Clay: I ordered my friends. Well, let's open it.
[Clay opens box]
[Sergeant/Humphrey pop out]
Clay: Humphrey! Sergeant!
[pause]
Clay: Why won't you say anything?
[pause]
[Kari/Larry/Harry come out]
Clay: Kari! Larry! Harry!
[Sprinkles comes out]
Clay: Okay, I'm not sure if I know you or who's side you're on. Are you that robot we ordered?
[Surge comes out]
Clay: I don't know your name, but you were with us then you left. Are you coming back?
[Spiritus comes out]
Clay: I only wanted Sergeant and Humphrey! Why are all you people here? Why won't you talk? You're making me insane! Aaaarrrrgggggghhhh!!!! Oh wait. There's a manual in the box.
[Clay goes inside box]
Clay: This is where I left my chicken noodle soup cookbook! And my how-to-poop book! How did all this get in here? Here's the manual. Let's see. There's a picture. It's a black outline, and it says "Eat at Shakum's". Wait this is an ad. Ah. Here it is. It says to activate a blank robot-wait, who am I talking to?
LATER...
Clay: Okay. Time to see what I've learned. If you want to poop, all you have to do is relax and concentrate hard enough and started talking to myself again didn't I? So the book said all robots come with 2 modes. Most are on/off, but some are always on with 2 personalities. That's why there was a switch. But who's going to do it? Nose goes!
[Clay touches nose]
Clay: Looks like you're doing it Humphrey.
[pause]
Clay: Well don't just stand there!
[pause]
Clay: Oh right. Well, time to make an addition to my list of regrets.
[Clay pulls out pen/paper]
Clay: Never... learned... how... to... poop. Well, I better start turning them on and rebuilding.
LATER...
Clay: Help me! Help me! I'm on fire!
EARLIER...
Clay: Well, I don't know how we rebuilt our whole base in 12 minutes.
Humphrey: [with Clay's voice] Thanks for the new voice chips, Clay.
Clay: Well, there weren't any other ones.
Sergeant: [with Clay's voice] But why'd you let Sprinkles free?
Clay: You mean she's not on our side?
[pause]
Clay: Aw, man!
Sergeant: Well, at least she doesn't have hands to activate the switches.
Clay: But what about the cops? Are they still here?
Humphrey: Cops? I thought it was a penguin!
Clay: We'll just have to wait.
Next time... On Monkeys In a Barrel...
