ACT II SCENE I

The group is seen walking until they eventually reach a sign that says "Humpy-Goop".

CORN POPO: Wow, this is a small place.

GIANT BABY: Yeah, there's like nothing here besides that giant building that they're building!

A giant half-finished building with a sign in front of it that says "NOT HUNGRY!!! COMEING SOON!!!" is seen.

BOOFIN and NINJA FINGER: Yeah, that's--

They both stop and glare at each other.

NINJA FINGER: You were saying...

BOOFIN replies sarcastically.

BOOFIN: No, you go right ahead, you probably know more about it anyway, since you've been here longer than I've existed.

NINJA FINGER snorts, but doesn't argue.

NINJA FINGER: That's going to be a giant buffet restaurant. The presidents want there to be every kind of food that ever existed there.

CLOPE: Even the red kinds?

NINJA FINGER: Uh, yeah, why not?

CORN YIY: Even--

BEAN NA: PIZZA?????

NINJA FINGER: Of course! All kinds of it!

GOOFIN: Where are they gonna get all that?

BOOFIN: Yeah, that's one of the problems they've run into.

NINJA FINGER: Hey, I was doing the talking!

BOOFIN: Only because I let you!

A NOT HUNGRY WORKER runs out of the unfinished building towards the group.

NOT HUNGRY WORKER: Ninja Finger!!! You've come just in time!!! And your assistant is with you!!!

GIANT BABY: Hi!

NINJA FINGER: Yes, it's always our duty to be wherever we are needed.

The WORKER gasps

WORKER: And is that Corn Popo and Bean Nana!!! And two of their friends!!! And you must be that blanket who saved the Plinkeeunkk House from exploding!!!

CLOPE: Yeah... that was... scary...

WORKER: And... some other random Things!!! Oh, this is perfect!!!

SNAPPY: Why?

WORKER: We were just finding ourselves in need of helps!!!

NINJA FINGER: What seems to be the trouble?

WORKER: A guy came here a few hours ago and tied up a bunch of building workers inside the building to chairs then rigged the whole thing with explosives and then ran off with our entire supply of candy!!!

Everyone gasps and starts talking about candy.

CLOPE: Someone just stole my candy last night!

GOOFIN: Did he leave anything behind?

WORKER: Ya!!! This note was on the door!!!

He shows them note from Evil Ned.

NINJA FINGER: Yep, that's our guy.

SNAPPY: There must have been whole bunches of candy in there if the Presidents wanted every single kind of food here!

BOOFIN: If he's using it for something besides eating, then he just gained a big upper hand!

NINJA FINGER: Were you able to rescue the people?

WORKER: No!!! We couldn't untie them or cut through the ties for some reason!!!

GIANT BABY: Yay! Then we get to break the chairs!

NINJA FINGER: Good idea! How about the bombs? Could you deactivate them?

WORKER: No!!! They were all in places only a small people could get to!!!

CORN POPO: Well then... why is the building?

BEAN NANA: Why is the building what?

CORN POPO: Why is it... still? Why isn't it blowed up?

WORKER: He set them to explode later!!!

GIANT BABY: Well, when is later?

WORKER: By now it is probably more soon than later!!!

NINJA FINGER: Well then, looks like we've got a job to do, Giant Baby!

GIANT BABY: YAY!!

BOOFIN: Don't think we're not going to help you, too!

CLOPE: Uh... why not?

BOOFIN: Because we were selected for this mission for a reason! And we can't back away just when things start to get dangerous! Right, everybody?

Everyone agrees, some reluctantly.

NINJA FINGER: Uggh... Fine! I guess that'll make it not take as long.

BOOFIN: Do you know how many people are in there?

WORKER: We finded seven I think!!! And they're all in random places in the whole building!!!

SNAPPY: That's a lot of building to look in!

NINJA FINGER: Well, then we'd better get going! Come on!

He starts walking towards the building, everyone else follows.

WORKER: Thank you!!! Do good!!!

Everyone enters building.

NINJA FINGER: Okay, there are a lot of places to go, so we'd better split up.

BOOFIN: I agree.

NINJA FINGER: Good, because we don't have time to argue. Talking animals, you go down that way. Things, you head the opposite direction. Giant Baby and I will try and look everywhere else in this maze of a building. If you find any bombs, try to deactivate them.

BEAN NANA: Uh... I think I found one!

She is looking at a bomb in a place that only a small person or animal could get to. Everyone sees the timer on it, which says somewhere around 2:00 and keeps counting down the seconds. NINJA FINGER's eyes get wide.

NINJA FINGER: Go! Go! Go! Hurry! Don't worry about the bombs, just get the people out of here!

BEAN NANA heeHEEs the bomb to break it, then hurries off in her appointed direction like everyone else. People are seen in random parts of the building freeing people from un-odded ropes by breaking the chairs that they are tied to. The time continues to go down on hidden bombs that they pass. They all come to main area after freeing everyone (the freed people all escape through various emergency exits) and start running towards door. There is currently somewhere between 20 and 30 seconds left.

GOOFIN: We're not gonna make it!

BOOFIN: Keep running!

NINJA FINGER, seeing that GOOFIN is right, looks up towards ceiling.

NINJA FINGER: Come on, Giant Baby!

He grabs her and starts flying away, but everyone (including GIANT BABY) starts yelling at him to come help them.

Don't you have "Super Clope" to save you?

CLOPE: I'm too scared!

BOOFIN: Ninja Finger, don't leave us! This is your un-odd nature fighting against your newfound odd one! Don't listen to it!

NINJA FINGER looks for a moment like he might be considering this possibility. Then, the outside of building is seen. Parts of it start to explode one by one. Then a long trail of things is seen flying out of ceiling just before that section of the building explodes. NINJA FINGER is carrying the rest of the group with a strained face. The explosion blows them slightly off course, and they land somewhat hard on the ground. After recovering, GIANT BABY starts hitting NINJA FINGER on the head.

GIANT BABY: YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NINJA FINGER: STOP!!

GIANT BABY: But you just saved us all!

NINJA FINGER: How many times have we been over this?

GIANT BABY: Uh... two?

SNAPPY: Bless you!

BOOFIN: Whew, that actually worked!

NINJA FINGER: What, did you not know if that would be enough to persuade me or did you just make that up?

BOOFIN: Well... I didn't really make it up, it was more of an... educated guess.

NINJA FINGER: Wait, you... did make it up?

BOOFIN: Only sort of, it's never been actually proven before since no other Elafint Ylinders have actually joined our side... but it was our best chance.

CLOPE: Boofin, if that hadn't worked then we would have died!!!!

BOOFIN: We would have died for sure if I hadn't said it at all, though, right?

CLOPE: Oh. Oh yeah.

NINJA FINGER: Well... the reason I saved all of you was because I realized... you were right.

BOOFIN: Really?

GOOFIN: See, we Things actually have stuff to offer on this mission!

NINJA FINGER: Yeah, I guess... sorry for acting like that.

BEAN NANA: It's too bad that we couldn't save the building.

CORN YIY: Yeah, all that--

BEAN NA: PIZZA!!!!

CORN POPO: All that pie...

BEAN NANA heeHEEs him.

Owie!

BEAN NANA: heeHEE!!!!

Everyone hears a squeaky radio-like noise and looks around to try and find its source. Then, PRESIDENT NA's voice is heard through the static.

NA: Beez you there?

NINJA FINGER: President Na? Is that you?

YIY: And me! The mee!

NA: NO!!!!!

GIANT BABY: Are you invisible?

YIY: No, we'z talkin through your headset thingees.

GIANT BABY: Oh! Hi!

GOOFIN: Do you know where Evil Ned went? He had already been through Humpy-Goop.

SNAPPY: And Not Hungry blew up!!!

YIY and NA: BLOOO UP??!!??!!??!!!!!????!?

CORN POPO: Yeah! The Ned guy put bombs in it!

NA: Did anyone-body get hurt?

BOOFIN: They would have if we hadn't got there as soon as we did.

YIY: This is many un-odd!

NA: Ya!

NINJA FINGER: So, where do we need to go next?

YIY: Well, uh... Evil Ned is currently going the towards of Flimmiton, but...

NA: If he blew upd Not Hungry, then he probboly did... bad stuff... in the other places that he goed, so...

YIY: You shoulds probably go to those them and fix whatevs bad stuff he did in thems.

CLOPE: How many other places did he go?

NA: He first went to Boogy-Oogy--

CORN YIY: Oh no! That's where all of us talking animals live!

CORN POPO: Well, there's also Oogy-Boogy and Oogy-Boog and--

BEAN NA: PIZZA!!!!

CORN POPO: No!

CORN YIY: Then what?

CORN POPO: Uh... I forgot.

BEAN NANA heeHEEs him.

Owie!

BEAN NANA: heeHEE!!!

GOOFIN: But if we don't catch him soon, then he might do bad things in other places!

YIY: True...

NA: Maybz you guys should split the ups!!!

YIY: Ya!

NINJA FINGER: Giant Baby and I will chase the bad guy! Uh... right?

BOOFIN: That would probably make the most sense.

NINJA FINGER: Thank you.

GIANT BABY: Yay!

BEAN NANA: The four of us should go to Boogy-Oogy, since we know people there.

CORN POPO: But, but, but... I wanted to go with the ninja.

CORN YIY: We've faced un-odd before, we can do it again!

CORN POPO: Oh yeah.

CORN YIY: We'll just need some--

BEAN NA: PIZZA!!!!

NA: So then the one of you Things should go with those them and the rest go with the other them!

YIY: So that it evens!

NA: Ya!

GOOFIN: I can go with them.

SNAPPY: No, I can!

BOOFIN: No, Clope should.

CLOPE: Whatwaitwaitwhatwhy???!???

YIY: Ya, that would have the most sensyness!

NA: Because then both teams having a Super guy with them!

CLOPE: Butbutbut if I leave you guys, then...

He whispers to BOOFIN, but eyes BEAN NANA.

...scary stuff might happen!

BOOFIN: You'll be fine.

CLOPE: Butbutbut... what if you need me?

BOOFIN: We'll have Ninja Finger!

CLOPE: Butbutbut--

BEAN NANA heeHEEs him.

Ow!

BEAN NANA: heeHEE!!

CLOPE: See, this is what I'm talking about!

BEAN NANA: If you don't come with us, I'll do it again.

CLOPE: OKAYOKAYOKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just don't hurt me!

BEAN NANA: That's what I thought.

A text alert is heard through their devices.

YIY: O that's not good. Uh... Ninja Finger, does you think your peeps can be of stoping by the villages of Cow City and New Horseland? Our substitutes peeps just telled us that there beez many not good phone calls from them places.

NINJA FINGER: Aren't those south of Oddland City? That would be a bit of a detour.

NA: They's not much souther of it, with flying you should beez able to get there pretty fast.

YIY: Cans you fly all those them all the way there?

NINJA FINGER: Well...

He looks at Giant Baby, who is by far the biggest in his half-team.

I can try...

GIANT BABY: Yay!

NA: O that's good.

BEAN NANA: Anything else we need to know?

YIY: No!

NINJA FINGER: Then I think it is time to part ways.

YIY: Ya!

NA: Just for now of courses, you'll meet up again before this search is donely over.

NINJA FINGER: Giant Baby, do you mind hanging upside-down?

GIANT BABY: No!

NINJA FINGER: Good, then grab the potato and the cucumber.

She grabs GOOFIN in one hand and SNAPPY in the other.

SNAPPY: O boy.

GOOFIN: Don't drop us, please!

GIANT BABY: Okay!

NINJA FINGER turns to BOOFIN.

NINJA FINGER: Do you mind? Hanging upside-down?

BOOFIN: Not as long as you don't go too high.

NINJA FINGER: Alright, then...

He grabs Boofin's cord and Giant Baby's leg.

Here we--

He lifts off the ground, then grunts.

--go! Oh, boy. Hang on tight!

BOOFIN: We'll meet you guys in Flimmiton!

BEAN NANA turns to the others.

BEAN NANA: Come on guys!

They all continue walking south, with the exception of CLOPE.

CORN POPO: Too Boogy-Oogy!

CORN YIY: And--

BEAN NA: PIZZA!!!!

CLOPE looks up at the direction his friends just flew away. Then he looks down at the ground, whimpers, and follows the others.
