Den Brother

Synopsis: A likeable but full-of-himself high school hockey star winds up being the new den mother of his little sister's troupe of Bumble Bees. Though he soon starts using the girls as slave labor for personal gain, the experience eventually brings him out of himself when he sees how his selfish actions have hurt others and that his charm can't always get him through these situations, excuse his behavior, or repair the damage.

Go! Go! Go! Go!

Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!

Go! Go! Go!

Go! Go! Go!

good afternoon, everybody.

Hans Mikenluber here,

Voice to

the lemon oaks ice hounds.

It's been hand-to-hand action

All afternoon.

As always,

our ice hounds are down,

Plagued by penalties

and sloppy mistakes.

The hounds trail

the rivals Norsemen

4 to 2.

The question

on everyone's mind...

Why is lemon oaks'

superstar player

Sitting on the bench?

Alex! Alex! Alex!

Alex! Alex! Alex!

Alex Pearson is

back in the game!

Goose, I'm open!

Gustavo passes to Pearson

Who takes the puck and forces

the action up the ice.

Pearson fakes right,

then powers up the center,

Skating like

the street ball of hockey.

Alex! Alex!

and he lines up...

Come on! Come on! Come on!

and he scores!

you are the man! Whoo-hoo!

that's three goals and

a hat trick for Alex Pearson,

Earning him another

ice hound record!

Thank you!

It was a team effort!

Alex! Alex! Alex!

That's three for you.

We don't deserve you, Alex.

Pearson does it again,

but we're still down by one,

So let's use

my pressure offense.

They'll never expect it.

Alex!

Oh, sorry, man.

Titus is all mine.

Hey, work the puck to Alex.

Let's go, hounds! Let's go!

Alex! Alex!

the hounds are still down by 1.

Why can't every player

be as good as Alex?

Come on, buddy! Come on!

come on, Alex.

Gustavo keeps it!

I've got it! Dude!

dude, what are you doing?

they seem to be fighting over the puck.

And, oh!

They go down in a heap!

Novetsky has a breakaway.

and scores

the winning goal!

Well, that's the game.

The ice hounds lose 5 to 3.

And it's another

crushing defeat

For our beloved hounds.

But stellar play

by Alex Pearson

Nets him another hat trick,

So go, Alex.

What are you so happy about?

We lost.

goose, hockey

is not all about

Winning and losing.

It's about

challenging yourself

To be the best you can be

and I played great!

I... and you're coming along too.

I am sorry about

that little...

Bump.

No problem.

I know I was too slow.

But seriously, Alex, I think

we should've won this game.

goose, goose, goose.

Let's try to be

a little zen about this.

We are a 500 team. We're never

going to make the playoffs

But if I keep playing like this,

I could make

the high school all-stars.

I'm just saying maybe you should

think about the ice hounds.

I am thinking

about the ice hounds.

Think of the notoriety

it would bring the team

If I was on the all-stars.

So, you want a game at my house?

Yes.

Yeah... no! No! No no.

There's something I have to do.

I told you. What was it?

Uh, taking care of your sister?

Yes. Yes.

Well, she's been

fed and watered recently.

She'll be fine, right?

I can probably

come over for one level.

Go home, Alex.

Half a level?

No.

Lemonade?

Nope.

Something?

No.

Hello, Alex.

Hello, Mrs. Jacklitz.

You're looking very

spry today.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, so then

you just take that three

And you carry it

over to the next column.

But that's not how

they showed us at school, dad.

Well, maybe not,

but it'll work in a pinch.

in a pinch, it'll work.

All right, I am home.

Let the celebrating begin.

Finally. Alex,

where have you been?

I've got a lecture

in 12 minutes.

What's the big deal?

Think of it as more quality time with Emily.

And besides,

you could have left.

Ingrid is right here.

All right, for one thing, Ingrid is

our housekeeper, not our babysitter.

For a variety of reasons,

I want you here watching Emily.

All right?

I had a game, by the way, dad.

Thanks for asking.

I know you had a game,

And I'm sure

that you were great.

And you know I'd be there

if I wasn't teaching

Five classes this semester.

I know.

Dad, I'm... I'm sorry,

but can you make it

To one game, or try?

Of course.

Thank you.

Okay, frozen dinners

are on the counter.

Make sure

your sister eats at least

Some vegetables.

Oh, and make sure

that she does her homework

Before television.

All right. Oh, this is

going towards my car, right?

Oh, and I'm going to be at the

university all day tomorrow too,

So don't forget to pick up Emily from

her bumblebee meeting at school.

Okay, so, uh...

Don't forget Mrs. Jacklitz

is always home

If there's an emergency.

Yep.

I'm sure she'd be as big

of a help in a crisis

As Ingrid would be.

No offense, Ingrid.

Oh... oh, no, no, no.

There's no way we're watching

Bunny friends forever.

But it's a new one.

No, it's not!

I've seen this one.

And don't start

with the doe eyes,

Because today, we are

watching extreme sports.

everybody

going to make it through?

...Lose control.

Now the fun starts, everybody...

No! Uh...

give it, Alex!

Alex! Alex! Please!

No!

Please.

I control the plasma.

I am getting my way.

Volume. Yes.

out there now.

Just 5 remaining here.

near the end

of the straightaway,

4 huge leaps.

The top 2 riders racing...

Wouldn't be popcorn

be great right now?

we've been

together forever.

You'll just have to study

the handbook on your own at home

Until bumblebee headquarters

Can assign you

to your new troops.

oh!

Whoa. What's up, Mrs. M?

They're shutting us down.

Troop 57 is crashing down

all around us

Even as we speak.

Izzy's dad was lucky enough

to get a new job in Chicago

And we're leaving right away.

I've talked to all the other moms

and they can't do it.

No one seems

to be able to take over.

this is not happening!

We've been together forever.

But you are still bumblebees.

You're just going to be split up

And slipped into existing troops.

Doesn't that sound great?

But me and Abigail

and Ursula and Tina,

We formed a troop because

we're all best friends.

What about me?

And Rachel is

sort of our friend too.

excuse me.

what are we going to do?

All right!

Enough with the shrieking.

Girls, don't freak out.

One of your mothers is

going to volunteer eventually.

My mom's a long-haul trucker.

She's away a lot.

I have four brothers

with self-control problems.

I didn't say it was

going to be easy.

I just said it can be done,

but... well, you're probably

Going to have to

guilt them into it,

So let's see your sad faces.

That seemed a little forced.

Oh, no... no, wait.

Everyone, copy Rachel.

I wasn't doing it.

Well, even if they can

Dig up another

den mother for us,

It'll take so long, we'll never

get into camporee.

yeah.

We've got to get into camporee.

Camporee?

Camporee is only

The most important

bumblebee even of the year.

And they don't let you just waltz in.

Yeah.

There's all this stuff you

need to do to qualify for it.

Sounds like a real hoot.

Girls, I am so sorry,

But I have a situation.

And so, the meeting

is canceled.

Alex is going to stay with you

until your parents show up.

What? No, no, no.

I have like 100 cool things

I've got to go do.

Izzy, come with me.

Girls, I will see you all

At the goodbye brunch

If it happens.

Bye, Izzy. We're all going to miss you.

bye, Izzy.

I'm going to miss you.

Bye.

see you soon!
