TOBY NARRATING: Hi!
I'm Toby.
I'm just a regular student.
Well, I was before I got zapped.
Now I'm some kind of science genius.
The only problem is, Elizabeth is too.
[theme music]
-You ready?
-Yep.
-Good.
[barking]
-Shh.
Chainsaw, shh.
They'll know I'm here.
SACHA (OFFSCREEN): Hey, what's up.
-Shh!
-Act normal.
-I am.
What about you?
-This is gonna be so cool.
[pulsing]
[barking]
-Shh.
[pulsing]
[zap]
-[screams]
-What was that?
-Garth has Chainsaw, we have a force field.
-Cool.
-Did you get that, Garth?
You're spying days are over.
[laughing]
-[sneezes]
-Oh, cover your mouth.
-(NASALLY) Sorry.
Couldn't you invent to make this cold go away?
-No.
-Toby Johnson's a dead man.
-What's he done?
-Put up a force field around my fence.
-Are you sure?
-I'm not stupid.
It nearly took my arm off.
-[sneezes]
Ow.
What about something to make my nose stop hurting?
-Not now.
MR. WOODS (OFFSCREEN): These should look familiar to those
of you who did your homework.
Eyes to the front, Garth.
-[sneezes]
-Bless you.
Just give me a tissue.
-It's my last one.
If you hadn't sprayed me with germs I wouldn't need it.
MR. WOODS (OFFSCREEN): Newton's three laws of motion.
Which led to what important discovery?
Garth.
-I don't know.
-Well, make an educated guess.
Don't think about getting the answer wrong, just think about
exercising your mind.
-What mind?
[laughing]
-Hey!
-Joking.
-[sneezes]
Excuse me.
-Russell.
Perhaps you know the answer.
-What answer?
-To the question.
-There's a question?
-The universal law of gravitation.
I suggest you take note of this, if you want to pass.
-I wish I could remember this stuff. (ECHOING) I wish I
could remember this stuff.
I wish I could remember this stuff.
I wish I could remember--
-Um, Mr. Woods, I, uh--
I have to go.
-Oh, yes, of course.
You do look pale.
Newton's first law of motion--
every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain
in that state of motion unless--
-[sneezes]
-Someone left their sunnies.
How cool am I?
[beeps]
-Whoa.
-What?
-The sunglasses just answered my question.
-"Shades are voice-activated, will answer all your
questions."
-What's the scientific thing Woods was talking about?
[beep]
-Universal law of gravitation.
Is that right?
-Yeah.
-I could actually pass with these!
-Elizabeth.
-Russ, put them down.
It's probably a trick.
-Don't you see?
The possibilities are endless.
I could know anything I want.
What's the biggest pimple ever recorded?
[beeps]
-Six centimeters.
Oh, man, this is awesome!
-Russ!
Hand 'em over.
-So, the-- the glasses will suck out his eyes?
Turn him into your slave?
-They'll--
they'll help him with class.
-You've helped him?
-I couldn't help myself!
I can't explain it.
-You did something nice?
-I wish you'd do something nice for me.
(ECHOING) I wish you'd do something nice for me.
I wish you'd do something nice for me.
-[cringes]
OK, Verity, I will.
For you.
-What is it?
-Nose cream.
-Thanks but no thanks.
-It'll fix your nose.
Put it on.
-It's not going to do anything horrible to me?
-No.
-It won't make my nose grow bigger or anything?
-No!
-It won't turn me into a bug?
Nothing?
-It's just nose cream, all right?
-That's amazing!
Thank you!
-What's going on?
-Elizabeth's just fixed my nose with this amazing cream.
That's the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me.
-Something is wrong with me, ever since she
gave me that cold.
-You bet there's something wrong.
You're mixing makeup and I'm stuck with Toby's force field.
I wish you'd do something about that. (ECHOING) I wish
you'd do something about that.
I wish you'd do something about that.
-[groans]
-It's a belt.
It's not really my style.
-You wanted something to deal with Toby.
Here.
-At least my present makes me look better.
-Can I take it off now?
-Wait.
Press the buckle.
-(ROBOTIC) Eat dust, Toby Johnson.
[laughs]
RUSS (OFFSCREEN): Well, what do you think?
-I can't see anything except the data
chip, mic, and battery.
They seem perfectly harmless.
-Yes!
-They're still [inaudible], if you ask me.
-No one asked you.
-Think about it, Russ.
It doesn't make sense.
Why would Elizabeth help you?
-She's right.
There's got to be a catch.
Unless she gave them to me by mistake.
-She put them on your locker with a note.
-Well, maybe she's finally got the idea that helping people
is-- is kind of cool.
OK, I'll be careful.
[thud]
[beep]
-What was that?
-I don't know, but according to these glasses, it measured
1.2 on the Richter scale.
[zap]
-[laughs]
[explosion]
-[growls]
[laughs]
Mission accomplished.
I could get used to this.
Give me the belt.
If you use the exoskeleton in public, people will see.
-So?
-They'll ask questions.
-But I thought of a really cool name and everything--
Garthdor!
-Just give me the belt.
-So why'd you bother making it if I can't even use it?
-I told you, I'm sick.
This compulsion to help people is some sort of vile symptom.
If someone says I wish, I produce.
-Because of the illness?
-Yes.
-You can't control it?
-No.
-I wish--
-I wish I was better!
[yelps]
-Elizabeth, what's wrong?
-G-get Toby.
-You want me to come with you because Elizabeth's got a
cold?
-You don't understand.
She's really sick.
-What about that suit of armor?
-She didn't want to do that.
-Oh, sure, she really didn't want to blow us into oblivion.
-This isn't a joke.
Toby, she needs you.
-She's got a strange way of showing it.
-If you don't help her, she could die.
I'm not going back without you.
-What do you mean he's not coming?
-He doesn't care.
-Maybe you didn't make it clear?
-I did.
I mean, I tried.
-Did you tell him he's the only one who can save me?
Did you tell him I could die?
-Is that true?
-[sighs]
-Too bad he hates your guts.
-Right.
-What are you doing?
-I'm going out to have some fun.
-You can't take that!
Don't be stupid.
The next person who calls me stupid gets it from Garthdor.
-Verity, help me up.
If Toby could see how suck I am, he wouldn't turn me away.
-You'd never make it.
-You could teleport me.
-Me?
I don't know how.
-The coordinates are set.
All you have to do is press the red button.
Please!
Ve--
Verity, there's something I want you to know, something
I've never told you.
-What is it?
-I really value your--
[gasps]
-What are you doing here?
-You have to help me.
I'm sick.
-Help you?
You were the one who sent that huge Garthbot thing on us.
Toby, this is not your problem.
-I wasn't thinking straight.
The virus has accelerated.
-What about Garth?
-I made an exoskeleton belt, which transforms him into--
-Yeah, we saw.
-He took it.
-Find Garth before he does anything stupid.
-But what--
-Just go!
Please.
-[sighs]
-Thanks.
-Come on, sit down.
You've got a fever.
You really are sick.
-So can you believe he actually thought he had a
chance with me?
-What?
-Yeah.
-What did you say?
-I said no.
-Nice belt.
-Are you talking to me?
-We were talking about you, does that count?
-You think I'm too dumb to know the difference.
-Garth, take it easy.
-Nobody calls me stupid.
-Nobody did.
Relax.
[laughing]
-What are you looking at?
-So the virus makes you do nice things for people?
Like the sunglasses?
-Exactly.
-And that's a bad thing?
-It's awful.
And I'm getting worse.
Look at me, this isn't who I am.
-Maybe it is.
Maybe the fever's bringing out a part of
you that's been forgotten.
You weren't always this--
well, the kind of person you are now-- before
you became a genius.
-Before I became a genius, I was weak.
-Well, not everyone thought that.
-This was a bad idea.
-Stay there.
-You think I'm stupid, don't you?
-Why would I think that?
-Answer me!
-Relax.
I'll get you a juice, on the house.
-There he is.
He seems all right.
-One OJ for a valued customer.
[gasping]
-Oh, whoops.
-That's not good.
-We've got to get him out of here.
-You first.
-There's got to be a simple explanation.
-Yes.
-I don't know.
I'll think of something.
-I really thought you were going to help me.
-I am.
I want to.
-Look at you, you can't think of anything.
-I'm trying!
-If I were Russ sitting here like this, you'd have me fixed
in no time.
-That's not true!
-Then what's stopping you?
-I--
I don't know.
-[sighs]
-You do it!
-One more juice.
[gasping]
-Now you think I'm stupid?
-Since you mentioned it.
-Do something.
-[inaudible].
-Hey, stupid!
-Are you talking to me?
-Yeah, that's me over here, the one calling you stupid.
-Hey!
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Hey, guys!
[inaudible].
-Russ!
GARTH (OFFSCREEN): Russ, give me the belt!
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Garth.
Garth, what are you doing?
Garth!
Garth, get a grip or I'll call the police.
-[yelling]
Whoa!
[laughing]
-Hey!
Are you going to pay for that?
-Uh, let me pay.
-Excuse me.
-It's the least I can do.
-Get out of my way!
-Whoa!
Hi, there.
-Toby.
[sighs]
I'm cold.
-You'll be all right.
ELIZABETH (OFFSCREEN): I'm going to die, aren't I?
-No.
-You can't help me.
-What if I mess up?
I'll only get one chance.
-I trust you.
I'm sorry, Toby.
-Elizabeth, don't close your eyes.
Hey.
Elizabeth!
-Toby.
I'm scared.
I need you.
-Hang on.
Here, hang on to the supports.
-What-- what is this?
-I'm putting you into a deep freeze.
-How deep?
-It'll kill the virus.
-What about me?
-The drop in temperature will be fast.
You won't feel it.
-Are you sure this is going to work?
-It's got to.
You'll be all right.
Trust me?
-90.
95.
$2.00.
I--I thought I had some notes, sorry.
-Forget about it.
I've got to check on Garth before he ruins anything else.
-Wait!
I want a smoothie.
Please.
-(ROBOTIC) Get ready, Skinner.
You can't escape Garthdor!
[laughs]
Huh?
[laughs]
Look who's stupid now.
[laughs]
-Garth!
-Huh?
Don't be stupid.
-[sighs]
-[sigh of relief]
I was just having some fun.
-It still doesn't taste quite right.
-What?
-On second thought, it's perfect.
Good job.
Everything all right?
-Yeah.
Here, you earned it.
-Jack.
-Thanks.
I've got my [inaudible].
I'm going to be smartest guy in town.
[crunch]
[laughing]
-Russ.
-Smartest guy in town.
-Not anymore.
-Hi.
I'm so glad you're OK.
-Thanks to Toby.
-So, do you remember much?
-I remember the parts that matter.
-You tried to tell me something before I teleported
you out of the lab--
something about you and me.
-Really?
[laughs]
Couldn't have been important.
-Toby.
I never had a chance to thank you.
-You don't have to.
-You saved my life.
-I would've done it for anyone.
It's no big deal.
