[CHANTING] We're the Geckos! We've got class.
We're gonna climb right up your glass!
Go, Geckos!
I never understood why people need a rally to get peppy.
Does that make you feel peppier?
[GROANING]
Yeah, it kinda does.
Oh, hey, Melissa. Mind if I join you?
Sure, Bradley, have a seat.
[GRUNTING]
Hello, Milo. Hi, Bradley.
[CLEARS THROAT] All right listen up, Geckos.
[SIGHS] I'm not gonna lie to you.
We're gonna lose today and we're gonna lose hard.
Middletown Middle School has intentionally failed
all its best eighth grade players for six years straight now,
so we're basically playing against a group of angry adults.
We'll be lucky if we make it out of there with all our limbs.
But that's no reason not to get out there
and give it the old middle school try! It isn't?
If you need me, I'll be in my office staring into space.
Oh, yeah, and in the meantime, let's enjoy some peppy songs
from our Jefferson County Middle School defunded marching band.
[PLAYING OUT OF TUNE]
Now that makes me feel peppy. No, Milo, don't tap.
Remember what happened last time?
MILO: What happened last time?
[ALL YELLING]
Oh, now I remember. MELISSA: Dude, you're on my didgeridoo.
You guys are coming, right? It is my first game as part of the team.
Oh, my gecko, I would love to. I haven't been in years.
Last time he came, there was a llama stampede.
Llama stampede? You know, they can spit 15 feet.
I haven't been to a game since.
I do get nice thank you notes from the team, though.
You know, for staying away. [WIND BLOWING]
[CAT YOWLS] [HORN HONKING]
[CAR CRASHES] [CHICKENS CLUCKING]
Milo and I have had a "Not Football Friday" tradition for years.
"Not Football Friday"?
Yep. We used to bowl, but now we do things without
dangerously heavy round objects. Like, play cards.
[GORILLA GRUNTING]
It's still safer than bowling!
[CAT YOWLS] [HORN HONKING]
[CAR CRASHES] [CHICKENS CLUCKING]
But it's my first game, guys. It sounds fun,
but I try to support the team by staying away.
Hey, Milo, Coach said you could come to this game,
'cause it's the one game you can't ruin,
on account of we're gonna lose. Really?
Oh, yeah. They're better than us.
Plus, I've got a blockage in my fourth chakra.
Can't argue with a blocked chakra. I'm going!
Sorry, Mort! No, I don't think
that was Murphy's Law. I think that was my chakra.
MILO: This is gonna be awesome!
You know how they say the twelfth man is the crowd?
Well, I'm 12.5!
Whoo! It's the wave!
'Course, it works better with the whole crowd.
Are you sure you wanna go to this game?
'Cause we could go to the empty Pistachio warehouse and explore.
It's Zack's first game and they're gonna lose.
It'll be great!
[LOUD CRASH]
[SCREAMING]
[TURNS OFF CD] You like my new CD? It's called "Sounds of Disaster."
[CAR CRASHING] [CRACKLING]
That was an antique.
[CAT YOWLS] [HORN HONKING]
[CAR CRASHES] [CHICKENS CLUCKING]
This is gonna be fun.
I can't wait to do the wave in public.
[PANTING AND BARKING]
Oh, sorry, Diogee. No dogs at the football game.
You have to stay home.
[DOORBELL RINGS]
Come on in.
Wow, the Tiger fans are certainly excited.
ALL: Yeah! Whoo! Go, Tigers!
Yeah! [GRUNTING] Yeah!
[GRUNTING]
[PLAYERS GRUNTING]
It's a good thing we're right next to a hospital.
Hey, look! Here come the Geckos!
[PLAYERS GRUNTING]
PLAYER: Has anyone got any... Thank you.
[CHANTING] Who-hoo! Gecko, Gecko, Gecko, Geck...
[GROANS]
Hey, Joni, wanna sit with us?
Hey, Milo. I just got the cast off from last time.
Hi, Principal Milder. Melissa. Milo?!
[CHUCKLES] Good to see ya. [GROANS]
I was under the impression you promised Coach Mitchell
you would never show up at a game.
No, it's okay, 'cause we're gonna lose anyway.
The coach said so at the pep rally. Did he?
I'm gonna have to explain "pep" to that man.
Oh, look, there's the band! Hi, band!
ALL: Hi, Milo.
[ALL MURMURING] [BOY WHISPERS] Move over!
The one Milo-free zone ruined.
Hey, Melissa, you can sit with us if you value your life.
We're outside the splatter zone.
No thanks. I've got an adequate buffer zone here.
Hey! Do you mind?
Oh, Diogee. You should go home.
[WHINING]
He's not supposed to be at the football game.
ANNOUNCER: Tigers kick off to the Geckos and here we go!
[SQUAWKS]
[GROANING]
Hut, hut!
Yeah! Whoo! Go Geckos!
[CRASHES]
MORT: That could still be my chakra.
Dude, we have a tuba?
You can do it! Geck-go! Geck-go!
Crepes Suzette! Get your crepes Suzette here.
Stinky cheese! [FRENCH MUSIC]
Beignets... Oh, I'll take two.
Sorry, we are closed.
Wow, French food at a football game?
They tried selling German sausages but they were the worst.
[DRUM ROLL]
Check it out! I found a snare drum!
[CROWD CHEERING] Oh, look! Zack's going on.
[CHANTING] Zack, Zack! He's our man.
If he can't do it... Look out!
Creme brulee. Get your creme brulee.
Ooh! That was probably my bad.
That should count for something. We could still win.
You know, if the Tigers all suddenly came down
with a really bad cold or if they suddenly decided
they wanted to be folk musicians instead of athletes or...
You know, you can stop me any time. Yeah! Who would've guessed
the game would be ruined? Color me surprised. Hmm.
What's the one thing that's different at this game?
I don't know. I'm not usually here. Maybe things would've gone better
if you'd cheered for the other team.
Yeah. [CHUCKLES] Go Tigers!
[MUSIC] [GRUNTS]
[YELPS]
[TIGER PLAYERS GRUNTING]
[YELLING]
[ALL GASP]
Great googly moogly! It works!
Milo, I've got an idea.
Give me all the merchandise you've got for the Middletown Tigers.
Aren't you guys Geckos? You want the sale or not?
Hey, man. I've got no horse in this race.

[WHISLTE BLOWS] Time out! Gecko!
Okay, Geckos. Come on, bring it in.
I know I said we were going to lose this game,
but you guys didn't listen to me! And I'm glad!
Now, we're only behind by two points!
So get out there and continue not listening to me! You understand?
So, does that mean we shouldn't listen to you starting now
or before when you told us not to listen to you?
Yeah, because I wasn't really listening to you just now.
Would you... I don't even exist!
Go, go, go, go! Go, Gecko!
Go, Tigers, go! [GROANS]

Oh, no! It's going wide!
Field goal! I mean, field goal!
Oh! I should probably turn this thing off.
We won? This has gotta be a dream.
Well, that means I can do anything. Maybe I can fly!
[GRUNTS]
[ALL CHEERING]
[ALL CHANTING] Milo, Milo, Milo!
BOY: Whoo! It's like Football X-7!
[CHANTING CONTINUES]
Ow! I forgot about that.
MILO: Ow!
Are you guys okay?
MILO: I think I broke my thumb.
Well, looks like we've started a whole new tradition!
Traction Saturday! [KNOCK ON DOOR]
[ALL GREETING MILO]
[CHANTING] Milo, Milo, get well soon!
Your presence today was very supportive!
Yeah, we wrote that one in the hall.
Here you go, buddy. The game ball.
We want you to have it. Oh, my gosh. Cool!
Hey, any of you guys want to sign my cast?
MILO: Diogee, go home!
He's not supposed to be at the hospital. [BARKS]
So I opened the door to the arboretum, and there they were!
And I have no idea where the orangutan came from.
Yeah, I mean, how far is the nearest zoo?
And why was he so set on getting my pistachios?
It's the mysteries that make life worth living.
At least that's what it says in my expensive book of mysteries.
All right, class.
Today we are starting on a new physics project.
This will test everything you've learned
about gravity, inertia and weight distribution.
All things I utilized in making this beautiful desk.
Solid oak. [ROMANTIC MUSIC]
Took me the better part of 21 weeks.
Weeks of solitude, just me, the wood.
Mmm.
[CLEARS THROAT] [STAMMERING] If you work hard,
someday you too may own a special desk.
Not this one, though. This one's mine.
So, over the weekend, you will be building a container,
inside of which you will put an egg.
Your grade will be based on only one criteria.
When dropped from the roof of the school, will the egg break?
An unbroken egg guarantees the team an A.
All the others will be judged on how well they have
applied the concepts we've been talking about in class.
Now, you will all be breaking into teams of three.
So, I guess you three will be a team then?
Cowards. Any limit on the number of eggs
we break while we're building it?
No. Okay then.
You sure you don't wanna join our team, Melissa?
I named it "Team Melissa."
Not after you. Different Melissa.
No, I'm good.
Really? You're gonna jeopardize those straight A's?
You know, eggs can be rather fragile.
Bring it on. I eat eggs for breakfast!
Yeah, so do all of us.
[DOORBELL RINGING] Milo? MILO: Coming!
I got eight dozen eggs. That should last us...
Like I said, I got four dozen eggs.
MELISSA: Amateurs!
Wow! That's a lot of eggs.
I've got a grade point average to protect.
You think that's maybe a little bit overkill? [CREAKING]
No, I do not think it is overkill. Touché.
So, shall we get crackin'?
That's eggs-actly... No! No egg puns.

Did you just put an egg in your pocket? Yeah.
Yeah, that's not gonna end well.
Aah?
[BIRD SQUAWKS]
Okay, guys, we are going to crack this thing.
And by that, I mean we are not going to crack this thing.
We have to build something that can withstand a two-story drop,
a wood door, a tree branch, a size 8 and a half sneaker,
Zack's butt, a raccoon attack... ZACK: Hey...
MELISSA: It's all in here. We have to build something
that will withstand not only one of these things,
but all of them simultaneously.
Well, you know what they say.
Whatever breaks our egg only helps our egg dropping contraption
utilize the forces of gravity, inertia and weight distribution better.
That's the spirit! Who says that?
[SQUISHING]
Okay, team. I give you version 87.3 dash 9.
ZACK: I say we just call it "Big Bertha."
I'm not naming them anymore. I don't wanna get attached.
Come here, Diogee. [PANTING]
Here it goes.
Okay, looking good.
[GRUNTS] Wait.
Okay.
I think. [GRUNTS]
Well? The egg is...
completely intact!
We did it! Whoo-hoo!
I've gotta see this. I'll be right down!
Whoa, whoa, no! You stay right there, Milo!
We still have to get this to class in one piece.
I'll guard Big Bertha for the night.
And Melissa, you take home all the extra eggs.
What extras? That was our last one.
Really? Well, here, then.
Triple-cooler it.
And we'd better get out of here
before anything else... MARTIN: Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Look out! No brakes!
Whoa!
[GRUNTS]
[ALARM SOUNDING]
Hi, kids. Hi, Mr. Murphy, we gotta go, bye!
See you tomorrow, team!
MR. MURPHY: Milo, be a dear and get your dad his crutches.
[YAWNING]
Okay, Big Bertha, time to get you to schoo...
[GASPS]
No!
[GASPS] Huh. Just a dream.
All right. Time to rise and... [GASPS]
No!
[GASPS] Oh, it's just a dream.
[GASPS]
Well, that is peculiar.
[GASPS] Yeah, that's more like it.
[BELL RINGING]
ZACK: Melissa, over here!
How's Big Bertha doing? Good so far. How's the egg?
A-okay!
Let's just get this thing to the classroom.
Three o'clock!
[YELLS]
Ten o'clock!
Actual clock!
He's already here, isn't he? How'd you guess?
Hi, guys!
Milo, I need to take the egg out. Do you mind?
No problem. I'll stand in the corner.
I'm helping by not helping.
Pilot egg is ready for drop-off.
Whoo-hoo! Oops!
Heads up! [ALL SCREAMING]
No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
That was our last one. Now we can't even compete!
I am so sorry, Melissa. I don't know what to say.
Oh, wait a second. I forgot this one!
Okay, class, take your projects up to the roof
while I monitor the drop zone. [LAUGHS]
And send one of your team members down with me for clean-up.
I'll be on the ground crew. Good luck, guys.
And FYI, a tremendous portion of my self-esteem
is wrapped up in my grade point average,
but, you know, no pressure.
You know, I made that pencil you're holding.
MILO: I think this is taller than my tree house.
Look, with all our trials and errors,
this baby can now handle anything.
Team One, you're up.
Okay, let's go down the check list one more time.
[SQUISHING]
You need to take into account acceleration speed!
Parachute? Check.
With 1.5 second deploy speed.
Shock absorbers? [SQUISHING] Check.
Compressed air plungers braced by interior bendy straws.
I cannot emphasize weight distribution enough.
Think of my desk! I know I am. Roll cage?
Check. Vacuum hose with closed foam core.
And we have our first successful...
Oh, uh, yeah, no. Get the mop over here.
We'll show you how it's done.
MRS. MURAWSKI: Oh. Very nice. Just a hairline fracture.
Bradley's team is the one to beat.
Yeah! In your face, other people! I'm on your team.
I hope it works. I don't wanna let Melissa down.
Come on. How much can happen between here and the ground?
Milo, Zack, Melissa. You are the last ones to go!
Come on, hold together.
Okay. One, two...
BOTH: Three!
Yes, yes, yes...
Hey, is this the cafeteria service entrance?
No, no, no! Uh-oh! Kickball game!
Check, she can handle that! [WHISTLE BLOWING]
Football scrimmage! Uh... check, theoretically.
[MUSIC]
[GROWLING]
Polar bear water tank. What? Give me those!
So, that's where the zoo is. [GROWLS, SPLASH]
MILO: Freeway. ZACK: Uh... check.
Wind turbines! Uh... check?
News copter! Come on.
Oh, come on.
[BARKS] Not you, Diogee.
Seriously, can someone help me out?
I gotta deliver all these eggs.
[GROWLS]
[BARKS]
We have a winner! Team Milo gets an A!
You three did it. I'm so proud of you.
Now, that's a grade A egg. [BARKS]
Well, I guess the yolk's on... I said no egg puns!
