[narrator] It's a quiet night in Little Tokyo,
when a simple snake charmer practices his craft,
unaware that he will soon witness a terrible new thread
to citizens of his fair city.
Tonight it's your turn, let's go.
Don't you ever quit?
[slam]
New help is so hard to find.
We are good.
[narrator] The near perfect music the trio heard,
was coming from the flute of a solitary stranger,
who appear to be wearing colander on his head.
You play very charming flute, sir.
[pot head] Never mind that, give me something to eat.
Huh? I can't, the kitchen is already closed.
[pot head] I said I want something to eat! I want it now!
[sneezes]
I hate it when that happen.
[narrator] Down town Big Cheese awakens sneeze in his jaw.
[snoring]
[narrator] Briefly.
Here you go. It's my specialty.
Break off!
[pot head] I hate green corn. I hate the way it looks.
I hate the way it smells!
I hate everything about it!
I think you shouldn't have done it.
Now, how do you know you don't like it, unless you try it?
Take it away, or suffer the consequences.
Come on. One insy little bit isn't going to hurt you.
Huh? Where are you going? Who's going to pay for this?
Goodbye!
[screams in fear]
[explosion]
I hate green corn!
Ha, he must be the food critic for the Little Tokyo Gazette.
Whoever he is, he takes his dining seriously.
I thought I smelled Pizza Cat.
[pot head] I want to talk to you.
Alright.
[pot head] I'm only going to say this once, so listen up.
You Pizza Cats have exactly one hour to get out of town.
Says who?
Yeah, says who?
Says me, that's who.
And if you don't get out,
I'm going to make your lives a living nightmare.
Oh no, a living nightmare! I'm so scared I can hardly move.
This guy is really starting to get on my nerves.
Wise guys, huh?
Prepare to feel the wrath of my awesome power.
Oh, yeah? Well, we are ready.
[Guido] Yeah, give us your best shot, bucket-head.
Hey, what if he is telling the truth,
and he can make our lives a living nightmare.
Well, it's a little late to be worrying about that now,
you should have thought about it before you challenged him.
[Polly] I challenged him?
You were the one who called him bucket-head.
[Guido] Not until you opened your big mouth and...
[pot head] Are we going to fight or what?
I haven't got all day!
Hey, furnace-face, why don't you get out of here,
before you get hurt?
It's you two, who are going to get hurt.
You better hope your life insurance is paid up.
[screams]
Hey! [shouts indistinctly]
[meowing]
[crack]
[Polly calls out in pain]
[whining]
Alright, now you really had it.
[spinning sound]
[pot head] Your little toys don't work on me.
So kiss your retards goodbye.
[hissing sound]
[both screaming]
[narrator] Are we getting to the end of our feline heroes?
Will this bring chaos to Little Tokyo?
Will this be the end of my job?
[pot-head] I'll never fail.
[narrator] Oh, try.
[narrator] We always travel fast in cartoons like this,
and by morning a word about the mysterious stranger
reached none other than Jerry Atric.
She's listen...
Ooh!
[narrator] Unfortunately for Jerry, he'd chosen
to interrupt Big Cheese's weekly boxing lessons,
as with cleverly assembled montage of boxing bravado
clearly shows.
[boxing sounds]
[narrator] What a[indistinct]
Chairman the fox, the chap is going down for the count.
Aah.
Remind me to hire a stunt double.
Yes, of course, but forgive my intrusion, you cheesiness,
but there is something you must see.
Hey what's going on out there?
[Jerry] This hideous stranger has been attacking the city
causing panic and chaos everywhere.
We have no word on who this stranger is,
but we can report that he is
causing panic and chaos everywhere.
Yoko Yo is the same writer.
No, but I think it's time I find a new one.
Who is the attacker?
He wears the ancient armor of war,
so there is only one bad bird that could be.
I'm afraid, your cheesiness, that the bad bird is Bad Bird.
[Seymour] Hmm.
You remind me of my father, when you talk like that.
Makes me want to give you a kiss.
[screams in disgust]
Everyone here is confused. Who is this menace?
What does he want? Let's go live for our attack cam and find out.
[cackling laughter]
[screaming]
Oh, is the camera on?
Attention, cats!
I challenge you to a fight to the finish
with the tool would help you.
Of course if you are too chicken to fight,
I guess I have to keep up shooting up the town.
They can all see who's chicken.
How? Are you going to lay egg for them?
Very funny!
We tried every trick and special effect we know
on this joker, and look how we ended up.
[Guido] This guy is invincible.
[pot-head] Of course I am invincible.
I'm master of the deadly art of war crow.
No, you haven't got a chance.
Ha-ha-ha.
Who is this joker thinking he is?
And how did he hear what Guido said?
In case you aren't convinced of ultimate evil power,
watch this!
-Ahh! -[pot-head] Ha-haa!
Alright, Miss Lucille, don't move, or I mess you.
[screams]
Oh no, he's got Lucille.
Now he's got too far.
What are you gonna do, Speedy?
Stand up to his awesome power?
And fight a hopeless battle for hero-do ?
Well, actually...
I kind of hope you guys would do it, while I supervise.
[all screaming in fear]
We already thought of it.
It's your turn now.
Please, don't make me go! He's got a bazooka.
Geez, what a baby.
[Francine] Attention, Little Tokyo,
Something you need to know.
A pizza launch there soon will be.
But what you know, instead of three,
So shield your eyes, and block your ears,
the noise will be quite loud and clear.
And don't miss our two for one, ask for our lunch special.
Ka-boom!
[shooting]
[rhythmic music]
Are you really sure, you want to go through with this, Mom?
Of course! Now giddy up.
[screaming]
[narrator] For reasons, known only to the riders,
Mother Mutt and her silly son begin to race with Speedy,
as he streaks across the sky.
Oh, looks like they have taken a wrong turn,
they've been speeding a wind.
[son] I told you this wasn't a good idea.
[Mom] Oh, shut up.
Ahh, help me!
[explosions]
I just can't handle all this stress, you know.
Oh!
[cackles]
Did you really think that blowing your top
was going to stop me?
Don't hurt me, please.
[pot-head] Prepare to meet my wrath.
[screams]
[spinning sounds]
What a... Who threw that?
[Speedy] Who do you think, bubble brain?
[narrator] In case you haven't guessed, it was none other
than Speedy Cerviche, Pizza Cat Ordinaire.
Show yourself, Cat!
I'd be happy to.
I'm here to save the day.
Speedy, my hero.
[pot-head] Yeah, take your last look at him.
[swishing sound]
Leave her alone, ya caldron headed freak,
before I am forced to make pizza out of ya.
[pot-head] Get real, Cerviche.
I've been looking forward to this show down a long time.
Ooh, you mean, we've met?
I don't remember ever meeting
a walking, fat [indistinct] before.
Or maybe it was at the Annual Crime Convention last year.
No, that's not it.
I know you are the president of the Pizza Cat fan club.
[pot-head] Idiot! I'm the bad guy, remember.
Alright, I'll show you who I am.
Behold my awesomeness.
[narrator] With the speed of light began
the best special effects that money can buy.
The mysterious attacker leaped to the sky,
and began almost magical transformations,
slowly revealing his true identity along the way.
It's none other than nasty ninja never-do-well Bad Bird!
[screams]
[laughs]
Bad Bird, you creep!
[screams]
That's right, it's me, and I'm going to do to you,
what you would do to me, so this series began.
And there is nothing you can do to stop it.
You are finished Cerviche.
I'm going to make you wish you'd never been born,
unless you are too chicken to fight.
Oh, yeah! Come on!
[narrator] Will this be the end of our beloved Speedy?
Or just a convenient place to put a commercial?
[laughs]
It's speeding speed, fans love it.
Calm down, Cheese.
[Jerry] It's true, he has an advantage over Speedy,
but he hasn't beat him yet,
besides, even if he does beat'm, there is no guarantee
that Bad Bird remain loyal to you.
After all, he has done all this on his own, so far.
Come on, Jerry, you worry too much.
Of course he will stay loyal,
where else would he get to work with a genius like me?
Would you let go of me, I can't breathe.
You are squeezing me too hard.
Sorry about that. I guess, I got a bit carried away.
I hate it, when he does that.
So what's it gonna be?
Are you mad enough cat to take on this crow,
or are you just chicken?
Come on, Cerviche, make up your mind!
I haven't got all day, you know.
I'll never run from the likes of you.
Of course we could discuss it over lunch.
Aren't you open for business Lucille?
Sure.
Come to think about it, I am a bit hungry.
Will that be fighting, or non-fighting?
[both] Non-fighting, please.
[Lucille] Here you go. One bird seed surprise,
and a cut of Catnap soup.
Hmm, smells great.
Hmm...
Can I ask you a question?
Sure.
How is it that suddenly you are so strong?
Good question.
After our last battle,
you guys destroyed one of my well thought,
but poorly executed plans
to destroy you and the rest of the Pizza Cats,
I got to thinking, it's not fair that you guys win all the time.
After all, I'm the wimp.
Anyway, I started to get real mad,
I mean, I was really burning up.
So, I did something about it.
What? What did you do?
Come on. Tell us.
What a bunch of baloney.
Aah-aah!
I mean that's what some people would say,
but not me, nope.
Not that I am scared of ya.
So what did you do? Go to training or something?
A lot more than that.
I decided to study the ancient Ninja Crow-way.
That made me do all sorts of dangerous and painful things,
too awful to even animate.
I worked until I nearly collapsed.
Still I was no better than before.
Same old Bad Bird.
Do you have any idea how humiliated I felt?
That's awful. It's so sad. Who's paying the check?
Oh, thanks for dining at Lucille.
Will you be paying with a major credit card or cash?
[Bad Bird] I haven't really thought about it,
besides the way tasted, you should be paying me
to get rid of it.
Sorry about that.
Our regular chef had a day off.
[Bad Bird] Maybe you should close on those days.
That means, this soup could be all paint.
[giggles]
-[Bad Bird clears throat] -Oh.
I'd like to finish my story, if you two don't mind.
No, we don't mind.
Now where was I?
I decided that I would have to prove my worthiness
by mastering the ancient armor of war.
Here comes another flash back.
[Lucille] Ooh, this one's got lightning and stuff in it.
[Bad Bird] You two cut it out. I'm baring my soul here.
Anyway, it was dark and rainy night,
when I arrived to the ancient cave of war.
Many before me had tried, and lost the signature to the cave,
but their all suffered a terrible thing.
-[Lucille]They were killed? -[Speedy] What?
[Bad Bird] They were forced to work as extras
on low budget horror films.
Wow. I'll be!
One thing in a chamber I walked, the first Ninja crow hidden
in invincible armor.
All around was statues of giant warrior crows of old,
guarding the ancient armor from unworthy.
[screams]
The armor started glowing.
Then it hit me with some kind of strange force field.
And when it had done, I worked too hard
to walk away from it now.
[cries out]
Aah, I am a worthy Ninja Crow.
I deserve to win the ancient armor.
They are not going to deny me what's mine and what's there,
and what I should have had included in my contract.
[cries out]
You are not going to beat me!
No way! You are mine! I am not giving up!
[electric sound] [screams]
What a terrible thing to go through.
It would be 12.95.
[Bad Bird] I've got no time, Lucille.
Speedy and I have some unfinished business.
Right, Speedy?
That's right, and I am ready any time you are.
Why don't we make this fight into a truce?
You mean you quit and I win?
[Bad Bird] No, you twerp, I mean a bet.
Whoever loses, gets to pay the check.
Then who'd going to cover the tip?
Don't worry about it, Lucille.
I'm gonna beat him so bad, he's going to pay the bill,
and tip you twice.
[electric sound] Stop it!
You can't have your fight here.
I have to get the place ready for tonight's dinner rush.
[Speedy] All right, we'll meet at sunset on the beach,
and I'll make him tip you three times.
Hmm.
[narrator] Later that day, word of the impending show down
had spread like wild fire throughout Little Tokyo.
Thousands gathered to watch the fight of the century.
The battle between good and evil.
The struggle between right and wrong.
The biggest special effects yet to be used in this series.
And unmatched in cartoon history.
Complete with food booths, street vendors,
and play by play announcing.
Candy, bubble gum.
Before we start, my mom is running for mayor,
would love to say something.
Vote for me!
Wow! It looks like it's just about time
to begin today's action.
Let's introduce the fighters, shall we?
On the left, the challenger, the Bad Bird.
And on the right, our champion, Speedy Cerviche.
Today's coverage is brought to you by my mom.
Vote for her.
Oh boy, looks like things are starting to really heat up
down on the field.
We now are only moments away
from the start of this great fight.
We can only guess what these two mighty bulls
are thinking, as they prepare for battle.
I got to keep loose, and not let him psyche me out.
I wonder if I left the oven on this afternoon.
I hate it, when I do that.
On call!
[growls]
Yee-haw! Yi-hi-haa!
Not this time.
[rockets blasting]
Eek!
[fighting sounds]
[Bad Bird] So you want to play a bad boy, do ya?
Yee-haw!
That's it.
No more Mr. Nice Guy!
[scared sounds]
[explosions]
Wow! Looks like Bad Bird is getting the upper hand.
[laughs]
[narrator] I've never seen anything like it.
What a battle! What a fight! What a...
Hey, I'm supposed to be calling this fight.
[narrator] Oh, sorry!
[screaming]
[sounds of action]
[screaming]
[crash]
And the champ is down. He is really taking a beating.
Candies. Souvenir toe nail clippers.
Hey, can I have some candy?
Sorry son, it's much too close to dinner time.
Please?
Ha-ha-haa. Hey fur ball, I bet you don't feel so cool now.
He should give up,
even though we would need the end of the Pizza Cats.
Yeah, then we could get out of this super hero business,
and live like normal cartoon cats.
That's starting to sound like a good idea.
Lucille and I could start up our singing group again.
No, not that.
You said it! Come on Speedy, get up!
Thanks for the vote of confidence.
Not bad for a Ninja Crow, but now my fine feather foe,
I'm going to do to you,
what I should have done in the first place.
[narrator] With the terrific thunder, and a lot of things
twirling, our hero bring his ultimate weapon.
I'm talking about the awesome of the magical Ginzu sword,
sharp enough to cut through steel,
light enough to take anywhere,
and it cuts up stirred fried vegetables
faster than you can say, "Bob's your uncle."
[electric sound]
Try this on for size.
With pleasure.
Aah! What a...
[narrator] Looks like Bad Bird has a new trick up his sleeve.
Or should I say, "On his back"? Never mind.
Ha-ha-ha! My Ginzu Power Absorber worked.
You are still a loser.
I'm levering your equip.
Whatever you say, will come to end, thanks to you.
[screams]
Speedy, get up!
Yeah, get up, go get him!
That is marvelous. Bad Bird won.
That appears so, but you can't be sure,
when you are dealing with Speedy.
Come on, get up!
I'm not through with you just yet.
I still got two secret weapons to show you.
[Junior] Looks like it's all over, folks.
It's Bad Bird by a knock out.
Get up! Or are you too chicken?
I think Speedy's hurt.
Why isn't he moving?
♪ We won! We won ♪
♪ The Pizza Cats are done ♪
♪ It's time to have some fun ♪
[narrator] As Cheese celebrates the victory,
a wave of shock sweeps over our heroes,
'cause Speedy has not yet shown any sign of life.
♪ I'm happy, I'm happy ♪
I could explode!
[explosion]
Hurray! We won, we won!
So much for that! I guess, I'll conquer the town now.
I can't believe Speedy lost to him!
Me neither.
He's not giving up. You don't think he is...
[narrator] Is this the end of the Pizza Cats?
Will evil triumph over goodness?
Find out the answers in Part Two,
next time on Samurai Pizza Cats.
Ladies and Gentlemen, the Samurai Pizza Cat fan club,

And I'd like to note,
Their antics take your breath away,
[Seymour] Like furballs in your throat.
