and I don't want you | upstaged by him again.
Why, that boy--
Harold, look at me | when I'm talking to you!
Adam is such a successful | enterprising young man!
Why can't you be more like him?
Dad, I'm not Adam.
Why don't you just | look at me for what I am?
Yuck.
Now, you're entering | Leon's game and that's final!
But, Dad!
No, thanks. Adam.
I was planning to work | on my jeep all weekend.
That's OK, Marvin.
I mean. | now that I think of it...
we need to find someone | with a really hot car.
Hey! What do you mean?
What do you call this?
Oh, your Jeep?
I'm sure it was all right | in its day...
but I don't know.
My jeep can outclass | any new car on the road!
Pick you up on Friday at 5:00.
And not only that...
but the game's a perfect chance | to get back at Adam.
Goody-good.
It's because of him | that my dad's always on my case.
Sounds good...
but what makes you so sure | we can win?
[Click]
[Harp playing]
[Fanfare]
Just a little present | from my father.
[Lucille squeals]
[Opener clanks]
Oh!
It's got | a turbo-charged engine...
observation bubble, telephone...
everything we need.
And best of all, | this baby right here!
Solve any clue | in five seconds flat.
Your dad bought you | all this stuff?
Boy, if you don't win that game. | he's gonna kill you.
Don't worry! We'll win!
You guys just meet me here | Friday night.
And in conclusion, this can be | our chance to finally show...
those football gorillas | how real men compete!
Wesley is right!
Especially after what those guys | did to us at the debate!
-All in favor? | -Aye!
Motion carried! [Bang]
[Glugging]
[Gasps]
[Belches]
I don't know, Lavitus.
I think we have better things | to do on a Friday night.
[Belches]
Yeah. Just why the hell | should we bother?
[Belches]
Well, gentlemen. | I'll give you one good reason.
What a nerd!
ALL:
We're in![Laughing]
And that's why | we've got to enter that game!
If Lavitus and his animals | decide to play...
I want to be there | and beat them!
Oh, count me in!
I'd like to get back | at those moron jocks!
Right! Peggy and Lulu. | how about you?
[Giggling]
[Door rattles]
What you doing, Harold?
Ah, Lucille has an idea | I'm supposed to be...
on a new diet | starting tomorrow.
Oh. An all-marshmallow diet?
Come on, Melio.
You know I can't go | all night without food.
[Sighs]
Just need an emergency stash. | that's all.
[Grunting]
[Sighs]
Come on, Melio. | Give me a break, huh?
Don't tell Lucille.
My lips are sealed.
Well, buddy...
[Yawns] | Getting kind of late.
-Oh, yeah. | -Mmm.
I mean. | thanks for stopping by.
-Sweet dreams. | -Thanks.
[Bag rustles]
[Slam]
Yeah.
Bye-bye.
Marvin'll pick us up | at your house in half an hour.
Come on, let's go!
Yeah, but, you know. | having four or five people...
on our team | would be a lot better.
I just wish we could | find one more guy.
FLYNCH:
Adam!You'll never believe it! | I finally got a date.
Hey, no kidding, Don Juan. | That's great.
Did you get the date | all by yourself?
Not exactly. | My mother fixed me up.
Terrific.
Super, Flynch. | but we got to get going.
I just stopped by to see | if you had any ideas...
of where | we might be able to go.
[Door squeaks]
You're coming with us. | Come on!
But what about my date?
Believe me, Flynch. | you'll thank us in the morning.
LAURA:
Yeah!Now that we're all here. | we can begin.
Candy and Sunshine and I | will be running the game...
from my apartment. | henceforth to be known...
as "Game Control."
We'll be plotting | your progress on the game map.
You must phone in | from each clue location...
so that we can keep track of you | at all times.
[Beeps]
It is now sunset.
Candy and Sunshine | will distribute the first clue.
[Low muttering]
LEON:
: "The sea is reversed:and blind:
"38-22-23/56-10-11."
Well, teams, good luck.
I'll see you at the finish line.
Wherever that may be.
[Laughs]
All right, men, huddle up.
OK. Blaylak, Cudzo. | Gerber. Armpit...
we've always been the best | offensive line there is...
and tonight we're going | to uphold that tradition.
Because who are we?
M-e-a-t M-a-c-h-i-n-e!
Meat Machine! Meat Machine!
All right, break!
All right, men, let's go!
ALL:
Right!DONNA:
| Come on! Get in, get in!Figure out that clue! | Get in!
[Twins giggling]
Come on, we'd better go.
Hey, wait a second. | Flynch!
Hey, come on, Flynch.
But my mother's | going to kill me.
-Will you come on? | -Flynch!
[Cheering and shouting]
[Tires screech]
Let's take this clue | one piece at a time.
What's the first sentence?
FLYNCH:
| "The sea is reversed."Well, OK, that could be | the ocean or the beach.
But it says the sea is reversed.
Maybe that means we should | go away from the beach.
[Sighs] Tch.
I've got it! I've got it!
"The sea is reversed"...
means to take the words | "the sea" and reverse them.
That way you get...
"Sea the!"
Yeah, but what's | the second part of the clue?
"S.S. Itari | is mixed up and blind."
-Huh. | -Mr. Chairman...
regarding the portion | "S.S. Itari is mixed up"...
I move that mixed up means | the letters in the word...
"S.S. Itari" are scrambled up.
Very good. | but the clue says...
"S.S. Itari | is mixed up and blind."
What does he mean by blind?
Well, that's the simple part.
Blind means to...
To take out its eyes. | "I's!" You get it?
-You get it? | -Yeah!
[Squealing]
There are two I's | in the word "S.S. Itari."
Take the I's out! | Take the I's out!
She's right! | That leaves s-s-t-a-r.
And that unscrambles | to form the word...
Uh, stars?
You're right!
-Yeah! | -Hurrah!
Blaylak, way to go!
Put everything together. | the clue reads...
"Sea the stars."
And there's only | one place I know...
you can see | every star there is!
The Wax Museum!
A map to the stars' homes!
The stars on | Hollywood Boulevard!
The Stargate Disco!
[Tires screeching]
[Horns honking]
Let's go!
are way ahead of us!
What are you waiting for?
[Beeping]
[Beeping]
[Yawns]
[Clatters]
Well, I suppose | we may as well get going.
We don't want to make it | too late of a night, do we?
[Laughing]
Let's see...
[Beeping]
Now, watch this.
[Beeps]
[Typing]
forecast for all of...
RADIO:
6L-15...for Los Angeles 6:00 report.
a serious accident...
and several smaller vehicles...
blocking the freeway...
[Static squeals]
[Voices overlapping]
A-ha!
[Slams]
I thought | it was coming from here.
[Noise stops]
When all of my tenants | started to complain...
I knew it had to be you...
you...you...student!
Now. Mrs. Grimhouse. I--
Don't give me any of | your fast college talk, buster.
I'm sick to death | of your mess and your noise.
You know what I have here?
Your eviction papers.
And I intend to use them...
if I hear | one more complaint about you.
So you just better | watch your step.
LEON:
Hey!You...you...pervert!
[Slams]
