Cooper, it's opened!
It's open?
Come on!
It's gonna be awesome!
Thank you!
Hey, give me back my quarters, you hoser!
Mom!
Dammit!
What?
I suck.
Gee, Sam.
How are you so good at this?
You've never even played it before.
I don't know.
There's a pattern to how
they are moving watch.
I don't see it,
but you sure as hell do.
Use the force.
Use the force.
Hey, Chewie.
You're a superstar...
...And it's time to show the world.
Attention all contestants.
...the competition will start
in 15 minutes.
You too?
That's so funny.
Really?
I think you're pretty darn foxy yourself.
Lady Lisa, I'll love
until the end of time.
- Who are you talking to?
- Nobody!
We'll talk later.
You're Lamonosoff Ludlow,
the wonder kid, right?
Who told you that,
the government?
Because I'm this close to figuring out
the secret of the Bermuda Triangle.
Wow, you don't have any friends,
do you?
Just my grandmother.
Well wonder kid,
you can hang out with us.
Really?
What's up,
misfits and groupies?
They call me the Fireblaster!
Because my hands are blazing fast...
...and also I will blast all my
competitors weak ass moves.
You must be the local talent.
If this was a fugly contest
I would be in trouble.
At least we didn't make up
our own nicknames, "Fireblaster".
Who cares who came up with it?
It's totally tubular.
Welcome gamers
to the first annual...
...Worldwide Video Arcade Championship!
Tonight we have representatives here
from The Guinness Book of World Records...
...as well as NASA, the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration.
Who will be videotaping
tonight's competition...
...to be included in a compilation of 1982
news events and popular culture.
That videotape will be placed
in a space probe...
...which will be launched by NASA
into our solar system...
...with the hope of connecting to, and
perhaps providing a message for...
...extraterrestrial life,
should it exists.
Oh, it exists.
Ladies and gentleman...!
...Start Your Gaming!
Announcer:
Alright, ladies and gentlemenwhat an evening we've had.
And, as the smoke clears,
right now we have a tie!
259 points for your new
Pac-man World Champion:
The Fireblaster, Eddie Plant!
Well done, Fireblaster!.
And 259 for the new
"Galaga Centipede" Wold Champion...!
...rookie sensation,
Sam Brenner!
Go Sam!
Well gentlemen,
Let's play...
...Donkey Kong!
Good luck, man.
Thanks. You have the patterns down
pretty good for these games.
You're gonna be tough to beat.
You see, the thing about Donkey Kong is,
...the barrels become more random,
possessed almost.
Playing by the patterns
doesn't the trick anymore.
Does it, Brenner?
Congratulations.
On coming in 2nd!
Fireblaster is the world's champ!
The local yokel looked me in the eye,
and blinks!
He's a loser, and you will always
be a loser.
Sam!
Sam, Sam, wait.
Sam, listen...
...you're gonna go to MIT, and invent
something that makes you a millionaire.
...And maybe even marry
Olivia Newton John.
I was actually thinking Samantha Fox.
Nice, but she's no Sheena Easton.
Well...
...there's always Madonna.
So hot.
but so, so, hot.
And didn't forget Katy Perry.
We're too old. It's gross already.
Plus you're married to a
woman who hates you.
Doesn't hate me, she just don't get it,
you know.
We don't have the free time
to do stuff like we did 10 years ago.
This job is killing me, man.
If I were you...
...maybe half an hour a day
turn off the cell phone.
Shut down the emails, put away
the Reggie bars, and focus on your wife.
Hold on, I want to see this.
...at Joseph Knibb Elementary School to
promote his youth reading initiative.
Here's what happened.
"Mittens jumped on to the table and
knocked over the whole bowl of soup.
The Ms. Pickles said gasp..."
"Gasped."
"And the whole room fell silent.
This was cistat...
This is cast...
Cattastrophic ".
Catastrophic.
I got it sweetheart, okay?
Why did he yell at me?
You're mean!
Leave her alone!
The President can't read.
You gotta learn how to read, buddy.
It's as simple as that.
I was on three hours sleep, alright?
- Your policies hurt the poor!
- Nice to see you!
- You have the blood of innocent children
on your hands!
Thank you, for your support!
- I can't go to college because of you!
- That's a lovely dress!
- You're ruining the country!
- We're all in this together, now.
You've got a rough life, bud.
- Sir?
- Thank you.
But a t least you have a life.
Look Brenner, you're meant for
something more than this.
You need to channel your genius
into something productive.
I mean you were incredible in
video games back in the day.
But that's a useless skill now.
It's like being a great blacksmith.
That hurt, man. That's "cattastrophic"
you said that.
I'm going to get you back for that.
Mr. President, if you take away
all the libraries, sir...
...how will the children
ever learn to read?
Blacksmith, over and out!
Hello. I'm a nerd
from the Nerd Brigade.
Here to nerd out on all your
audio and visual needs.
Do you have to say that every time
you show up at a house?
If I want to get paid, yes.
Isn't that kinda demeaning?
- Okay, I won't bring it up then.
- Thanks.
Come on in.
So...
What am I installing?
A new 85 inch, 4K 3D TV.
...PlayStation 4, 7.1
surround sound speakers.
Really? If you guys sell it,
Is it your birthday?
No, my parents are getting divorced.
Oh, so it's like 10 birthdays.
Yeah! My dad cheated on my mom with
his 19 year old Pilates instructor.
Her name is "Sinnamon", with an "S"...
...which tells you all you really need
to know about her.
I'd like to hear a little more.
You got any pictures?
I'm kidding.
I'm sorry to hear that.
My mom kinda hates him right now, and...
...she said she's gonna to invent a "Slut
Seeking Missile" to take out "Sinnamon".
Okay Matt, you don't need to tell the
nice installer man our whole life.
Woe!
I'm sorry, woe what?
No, just you... "woe".
Me, woe.
I don't even know what that means.
I mean, just when your son told me...
...that your husband left you
for a 19 year old...
...I guess I thought of you were gonna
be like one of those...
...hot women when we first met
in high school...
...but then let herself go and got a
pot belly and turkey neck with a...
...with a hairy chin."
But, clearly that's not the case.
So...
more like "Woe I should
have brushed my teeth...
...before I left my house this morning".
we're getting real here.
Did you really not brush
your teeth this morning?
No, I did.
setting this stuff up right now.
Go get'em.
Colonel Devereux.
You need to see this, sir.
We're under attack.
What the hell is those things?
