Den Brother Page #2

Alex, can you please run the

meeting, not just baby-sit us?

Please?

No.

Oh, please, please, please!

please! Please!

Please! Please!

No. No! No!

No, there is no way

that I'm going to be

Your designated den mother.

This meeting of troop 57

of the bumblebees

Will return to order on the...

Ah-ah-ah!

When you talk, you have to use

The troop 57 talking flower.

It means it's your turn

and only you can talk.

Emily's out of uniform.

She's not supposed to wear

a princess tiara.

It's against the rules.

Well, it's not against my rules.

Maybe she's a...

A bumblebee princess girl

or something.

Alex, then can I be

a bumblebee vampire girl?

What?

Yes. I don't care.

You girls can wear

whatever you want.

You don't have

the talking flower.

Okay.

Okay, no rule...

the talking flower is now moot.

there is

no more talking flower.

It's not even over there,

don't look.

Now, whatever

you girls were doing

Before I got here, do that.

We weren't doing anything.

Mrs. Moffat took forever

to tell us she's dumping us.

Yeah.

Well, what do you want to do?

Tina?

Okay. Anybody else?

You could look at pictures of cute boys.

Sure.

Okay.

No... no.

Uh, I don't...

I don't think so.

Well, we could do a go-for-it.

Yeah!

Yeah!

A go-for-it is when we try

A new activity, craft or skill.

All right, let's go

over this one more time.

You give 100%.

You never back off,

you never back down.

Now, let's go.

let's go.

oh, my.

come on! Let's go!

Let's go! Hustle up! Hustle up!

Emily, do you

want to catch up or not?

Come on! Go faster!

Okay, uh, you're

going way too slow.

Hockey's a fast sport.

You have to be fast.

But it's right there!

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

All right, come on, girls!

Come on! Come on! Come on!

I'll get it! I'll get it!

all right, Emily, you've

got this. You've got this.

Okay, let's go,

let's go, let's go!

Yes, this is it.

All right, now

work behind the net, Abigail.

There it... there it is!

All right, someone, take a shot.

Take a shot!

Shoot! Shoot!

Good effort, girls.

Now, that's how you run a power play.

I'm cold.

You okay, Tina?

Mm-hmm.

All right.

You all right, Rachel?

My feet hurt.

What's that?

that's a Zamboni.

Look, girls,

those are all indicators

That you're playing correctly.

Why can't we do something fun?

Becoming great hockey players

Is the most fun thing

in the world.

And how would you

know that, dork?

Don't tell me. Titus.

Do you really

not want me to tell you?

Well, what do we have here?

Some new ice hounds?

They are definitely

a lot tougher

Than the guys you got now.

Definitely a lot

tougher than you.

get him, Alex! Get him!

come on!

Does it hurt, Alex?

only when you talk...

Or stare at me.

Know what? Today was the best

Bumblebee girls meeting ever.

If mom were alive, would she

bring me to the meetings?

Of course she would, em.

Alex, I'm glad you're here

to take me to the meetings.

Seriously, why her?

Hmm?

You're like a psychic detective,

you know that?

Dude, some genetic twist of fate

Has made you good at hockey.

In the one town that would

actually care about that.

That's like having a free

date-anyone-you-want card.

Why Matisse?

Okay, yeah, she's pretty.

So what? She doesn't like you.

All right, there are

a ton of pretty girls

Who would love to date you.

She's really smart.

Yeah, we know that from the fact

that she won't go out with you.

Correction... she's not

gone out with me yet.

I made eye contact

with her at the game.

I think I'm really starting

to wear her down. Watch.

Yeah. That changes a lot.

What happened to you?

This? It's nothing.

I ran into a couple of bad guys,

Had to put the hurt

down on them.

You know how it goes.

Oh, I thought maybe

you got it in your last game,

You know, when you stole

the puck from your friend

And ended up on your butt

while the Norsemen

Scored the winning goal.

well, you saw the hat trick

before that, right?

You never give poor goose

a chance on the ice.

What... you've made him

your personal driver.

I swear, I don't even know

why he's your friend.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa,

it's not a big deal.

He doesn't mind

being knocked around.

It's just friendly in hockey.

When you check someone,

it's... it's like saying hello.

hello?

And goodbye.

It's like... it's kind of like

"aloha," but Matisse,

I just wanted to know

if maybe this Friday night,

We could do...

I... I'm busy.

doing what?

I'll find something.

Matisse?

I'm just keeping it real.

I am a highly pursued date

at this school

And you should just jump

at the opportunity to date me.

I... I'm just saying.

I'm trying to help you.

Really?

Can I just say something to you in hockey?

Yeah.

Aloha.

And by the way,

that was an aloha goodbye,

Not aloha hello.

I don't have a car.

That's the problem.

That's why she won't date me.

Alex, your old man's never

going to get you that car.

Oh, my pessimistic

little friend,

There's always a solution

to the exceptional person.

You just have to think

outside the box.

Alex! Alex! Alex!

slight delay

in getting started, folks.

However, we are looking

forward to a great game

Between the tigers

and the ice hounds.

You're enabling him, Gary.

Come on, Neal.

He just likes

to make an entrance.

The crowd loves it.

Well, love it or not,

if he's not on the ice

In 10 seconds...

and now, a big

lemon oaks welcome

To everyone's

favorite ice hound...

Alex Pearson!

whoo!

Alex wanted me to let you know

That he's sponsored by

Moses Roses fine florist shop.

?Moses Roses, Moses Roses?/i

Whoo!

Moses Roses! Moses Roses!

Gary!

Alex, this is just...

it's too much.

Nascar drivers do it.

This is good for everyone.

It's what I call

the win-win-win scenario.

Moses Roses gets advertising.

The crowd gets information

as well as a show.

And I get...

suspended!

What?

Neal, please,

don't suspend him.

I'm not going to, you are.

Either you control your player

or I'll bench your entire team

For the rest of the season.

Alex, go collect your things.

Coach, you can't

let him suspend me like that.

It's out of my hands.

I'm afraid you really

blew it this time, son.

I am so disappointed.

So am I. How am I supposed

to make the all-stars now?

In you, Alex.

I am disappointed in you.

What, for my initiative?

Dad, let's face facts here.

You are just as guilty

in this situation as I am.

You're the one

that told me

I had to help pay

for the car.

You forced me to take

drastic action.

What I said was if you pay

for your own insurance,

I would consider

buying you a car

If your attitude improved.

All right.

Well, there's nothing to do

Except for use this time to

rest up and wait for the coach

To lift the suspension.

Oh, no, no!

No, no, no, no, no.

No, the whole

laissez-faire parenting,

That stops right now.

You're going to work.

Dad, I couldn't

in good conscience

Take a job knowing

I could be

Put back onto the team at any second.
