[chicken clucks]
I can't believe we're all going to this ine's dance.
Oh, come on, Cricket.
-Love is in the air. -That's right.
And I love my veggies.
They're going to be a big hit at the snack table.
That's beautiful, Papa.
I support love in its many forms.
Not me! Back in my day,
you didn't dance until you were married.
And you danced in the dark with your eyes closed.
Well, I ain't dancing with nobody, and that's that.
[indistinct chattering]
Ew, are those heart balloons?
If you need me, I'll be in the bathroom throwing up.
Oh.
Ah, Cupid.
Bringing people together with his magical arrows of love.
If only I could have such a noble calling.
If only.
Tonight, my mission is clear.
I shall make some lucky soul fall in love.
Sheesh, I ain't seen this much corn since that silo collapse.
Cricket, over here!
Guys, I didn't know you were going to be here.
Yeah, I tried calling your house to tell you I was coming,
-but no one answered. -Yeah, sorry about that.
Our phone broke again.
Stop calling me!
[grunts]
Y'all ready to hit the dance floor?
I want to boogie.
Are you going to ask a girl to dance?
Oh, Remy, Remy, Remy.
Dancing with a girl is the gateway to falling in love.
And I don't want nothing to do with that.
Love takes away your freedom and makes you all mushy and gushy.
Love makes a strong man weak.
Love gives you nothing and takes away everything.
It's better to just be dudes enjoying boy stuff.
Having friend adventures forever.
Like those two dudes.
Terry!
Tonight, it's just us guys.
So let's get our dance on!
-Yeah, yeah, yeah! -Whoo-hoo!
Shaking my tail feather with my homies.
Thanks for letting us help out, Community Sue.
Oh, no, thank you.
After all, we rely on volunteers,
because we have no money.
You, you'll be manning the snack table.
All right, guys, do what you were born to do.
And you. I'm putting you in charge of chaperone duty.
-Sure thing. -Nancy? Chaperoning?
She's the last person who should be in charge
of a bunch of excitable kids.
Make me a chaperone too.
Okay, you can both be chaperones,
because I do not care.
Normally, I'd be coaching swim class.
But tonight, oh, DJ Sue is here to drop that beat!
[all cheer]
[all] Boys! Boys! Boys! Boys!
Uh, excuse me?
Uh-oh, fellas. Intruder alert.
[all] Intruder! Intruder!
Well, my friend just asked me to ask you
if you want to dance with her.
What?
Hey, I'm Gabriella. What's your name?
My name is Gabriella.
[laughs] Okay.
I saw you across the gym
and was wondering if you'd like to dance with me?
Me? Dance with you?
Well, I, uh...
Come on, Cricket, turn her down. Guys forever.
Yeah, break her heart.
Yeah. Yeah! Gabriella, I...
I...
I... I will be right back.
[imitating robot buzzing]
Ah!
[panting and whimpering]
What's happening to me?
-Hey, watch where you're going. -Gloria?
What are you doing here?
I'm waiting on Kevin to get here.
-He is so cool. -Wow, Gloria.
You really sound like you're in love.
Heck, yeah.
Hey, uh, how do you know if you're...
ahem, in love?
Oh, you'll know because it's a swirl of emotions.
Your heart beats fast, you sweat all the time,
you're riddled with self-doubt
and you second-guess every waking thought!
That's exactly what I'm going through.
Something weird happened when I saw this girl.
It's like I don't want to dance with her,
but then I look at her and I do want to dance with her,
but I don't think she's cute enough...
[retching]
Oh, does somebody have a crush?
No, no, no. Don't say that. Don't say that.
Pfft, amateur.
I had my first panic attack when I was, like, half his age.
Bull's-eye. Now to spread more romance.
-Whoa! -[groans]
Fly straight and true, sweet arrows.
Give everyone the gift of... love?
[all groaning]
My arrows haven't made even one person fall in love?
I must consult a higher power.
Oh, guardian of romance,
I was selfish.
I wanted to be the one to choose who falls in love.
Forgive me, Cupid. And bless this arrow.
I will not disappoint you.
I, like, like you.
Whatever.
Too close!
Get back, you.
Further.
Further!
I, like, can't even see him anymore.
[phone rings]
Uh, hello?
[Alice] Further.
Ha! That's better.
Now you got some room for common decency.
Jace and I have never been this far apart before.
I'm starting to forget what he looks like!
Hmm.
Oh, hey, son.
Want a piece of broccoli?
I put some ranch on it to jazz it up.
Thanks, Dad. I could really use the distraction from...
Gabriella.
Are you ready for another wedding?
Ooh, I love getting married every day.
[all] Kiss the bride! Kiss the bride!
Kiss the bride!
[grunting]
[screams]
Aah!
[gasps] No!
[panting]
Flash. I just need to-- Flash.
Aah! Pull yourself together.
Flash.
[grunting]
Huh?
Yes.
The cool water will help clear my head.
[laughs]
Cupid's blessing means my last arrow
is sure to work.
Whoever I hit will fall in love with the first person they see.
Hello, good sir.
Today is your lucky day.
Oh, Cupid, shine your love on this miserable creature.
Amen, hallelujah.
Oh, a penny. My lucky day.
Aah!
[groaning]
Struck by my own arrow.
Excuse me, sir. I...
Well, hello.
Ah, this is the right idea.
Ain't no love gonna find me here.
[Gabriella] Uh, hey.
What are you doing in the pool?
Aah! Gabriella!
[panting and screaming]
Uh... hi, Gabriella.
I've been looking for you everywhere.
You never answered my question.
Do you want to dance with me?
Do I want to dance with Gabriella?
What kind of question is that?
[overlapped voices]
Uh, did you even hear me?
[screams]
Hey, what's the big idea?
-[panting] -Uh...
I'll never make it through this dance without falling in love.
I got to get the guys and get the heck out of here.
You're so firm.
And yet you're so soft.
That's good. I like a sensitive man.
Drink it in, people.
This is what love looks like.
That's right, ten feet apart.
Huh?
-Jace! -Kareen!
I thought I'd never see you again.
What do you think you're doing, Nancy?
I separated those two for their own good.
Oh, please. They're just having fun.
Ooh, I knew this place would burn to the ground
with you in charge!
You know, I'm getting the feeling
this whole thing isn't really about chaperoning.
Why do you have such a problem with me, Alice?
You're bad news, plain and simple.
You're stubborn, you do whatever you want,
and you never listen to anyone but yourself.
[laughs] Yup. That does sound like me.
But it also sounds just like you.
Maybe we're more similar than either one of us
would care to admit.
Sweet corn beans.
I never saw it that way.
Well played, Nancy.
Well played.
Guys, guys, we got to get out of here and-- Huh?
Wh-Wh-What is happening?
It's worse than I thought. Love is everywhere.
I got to save me and my friends.
But how? Huh?
The sprinklers?
That's it. I will cleanse this dance of love
by drowning it with water.
Shake those yams, people!
Now do some squats.
[all] Squat! Squat!
-What the...? -Squat! Squat! Squat!
Time to end this love fest once and for all.
[gasps] Chaperones!
Stop that kid!
What do you say, partner?
Let's chaperone.
Get away from that!
Gramma? Mom?
Why are you trying to ruin the dance, suge?
I've got to save me and my friends from love.
What are you talking about?
Love messes up your life.
It makes you act all silly and weird.
And love makes you sad. So very, very, very sad.
Love takes and takes until you don't have anything left.
It's a horrible, emotional roller coaster!
And I don't want no ticket.
Whoa, whoa, just hold on a second, Cricket.
Love doesn't take things away from you.
It can give you something really special,
like a person who understands you.
But you'll never know unless you give someone a chance.
Sometimes, you might have more in common than you thought.
Wow, Alice, that's real sweet of you to say.
Don't read into it too much.
Love doesn't take, it gives?
[sighs] Excuse me.
I got to go find someone.
Gabriella!
I have seen the light!
I thought love was an evil thing.
But I see now that it's not about gushy, mushy stuff.
It's about creating a partnership
with someone who understands you.
And we understand each other.
So, Gabriella, I'm finally ready
to accept our love.
Love? Dude, I don't love you. I don't even know your name.
It's Cricket.
Yeah, well, you were being super weird about wanting to dance,
so I just ended up asking your friend.
What?
Hey, Cricket. Sorry, I know.
I broke the "boys forever" rule.
But Gabriella's really cool.
I couldn't say no.
And you don't want to dance with her anyway, right?
Dance with her?
[laughs and scoffs]
No way. Love's gross.
Nothing will ever change that.
Have fun with your cooties.
[both laugh]
Kevin never showed?
Yup. Best friend's dancing with the girl of your dreams?
Yup.
Want to boogie it out?
Ugh. Come on.
Whoa!
Looks like it's just you and me tonight, broccoli.
Oh, ranch.
Mm. Zesty.
[laughs] Yeah, that's ranch for you.
Hey, want to dance?
[laughs] Whoa!
[all laughing and chattering]
Two feet apart, people!
Keep it two feet apart!
Oh, what a beautiful day.
The sun is shining, the birds are singing,
the butterflies are butterflying.
Whoa!
What the heck?
Did someone just leave a banana peel in front of my house,
where anyone could slip on it?
I have been wronged.
[Keys] Ow! Ma'am?
Oh, excuse me, ma'am.
This bread bowl is too hard to eat.
Oh, my gosh. That is not--
[grunting]
Let me take that.
Ah, yes.
Bring me a fresh bowl, please.
Excuse me, Officer Keys?
Why, if it isn't little Cricket Green.
So no-good, filthy litterbug threw this banana peel
in front of my house, where I slipped on it.
Dust this for prints, officer.
I want this litterbug behind bars.
Twenty years to life.
[laughs] Oh, well.
Doesn't that seem like a bit of an overreaction?
What? But I'm a victim of this crime.
Well, sure, but everyone makes mistakes.
Sometimes you got to cut people some slack.
Cut people some slack?
You go easy on this litterbug
and they'll keep on littering and littering
until we're up to our eyes in trash.
As an officer of the law,
you're the only one with the authority to put an end to this,
so that no more little boys
have to slip and fall on their tushies.
Wow, I'd never thought of it that way before.
You know, catching this litterbug might be easier
with two people instead of one.
What do you say, partner?
-Count me in. -Ha-ha! Great!
Just don't tell my superior.
Cricket, stop mocking that police officer.
Oh, no, no, no. He's not mocking me.
He's my new partner.
Yup. I'm now an officer of the law.
Finally, Keys has a partner with equal intelligence.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
My own brother,
a bona fide boy of the badge.
A boy in blue.
A blue boy.
Thank you for your support, civilians.
Now if you'll excuse us,
time to put the trash where--
Time to take the--
Time to take the trash out.
[tires squeal]
Took him a while to get there,
but that was a super-cool exit line.
Welcome to my cop car.
Guests sit in the back.
And down here is my police computer.
I find it perfect for holding snacks and bobbles.
-[car horn honks] -Oh, right. I'm driving.
Enough chitchat, Keys.
We've got our work cut out for us.
Anyone could be the litterbug.
Like that guy.
Or that baby.
Or, hold the phone... that guy!
That guy's eating a banana.
-Officer Keys, pull over! -Whoa!
Hello, citizen.
Freeze, scumbag.
What my partner means to say is,
are you the litterbug that's been plaguing our city?
I don't think so.
Great. Thank you for your time.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing?
If we're going to catch the litterbug,
You'll have to be tougher than that.
-We'll have to-- -[Keys laughing]
Oh, that tickles.
Keys, are you even paying attention?
There's tons of infractions on this street.
Look over there. That woman is jaywalking.
[Keys] Well, she's clearly on her way to a birthday party.
No sense ruining someone's day over a little mistake.
There are no mistakes when it comes to the law. Huh?
Have fun at the birthday party, ma'am.
Keys! Ugh, no wonder this neighborhood is a mess.
Whoa!
More litter?
It's getting worse.
Looks like the litterbug struck again, eh, partner?
All right, I've seen how you operate.
So on this next one, I'm taking the lead.
Ooh, power shift. Sounds good.
What did you have in mind, partner?
I don't know about you, Keys,
but I'm suddenly Gee, thanks, mister.
Bye. I love you.
Now, remember, just follow my lead.
[blowing raspberries]llo, .
Would you like some lemonade?
Not today, Benny. We're here to talk.
I love talking.
What do you want to talk about?
Grass? Trees? Dreams?
Quit stalling and tell me what you know about the litterbug.
Little bug?
-I know a little bug. -You do?
I know where lots of little bugs are.
Right down there.
Huh? A lollipop?
This doesn't belong here, now does it?
Bah! Cherry?
I hate cherry.
Who left this on the street?
Tee-hee, these guys tickle.
So that's how you're going to play it, huh?
Maybe you'll feel like talking if I do this.
Have some lemon juice in your eye.
What the--? Aah!
Golly, "Clicket," that looks like it stings.
You bet it did.
And the next one's aimed at you!
How does this keep happening?
Stop, please.
Oh, you don't like it when I get lemons in my eye, huh?
Well, I ain't going to stop until you talk.
Aah!
[all scream]
My partner needs backup.
I got to help him. I got to... I got to...
get tough.
You had enough?
I'll take it from here.
Tell us who dropped the lollipop,
or you're going to lolly jail!
No, please. I'll tell you everything.
I don't know who threw the cup,
but the lollipop was Tilly Green's.
[panting]
Tilly?
Did you see that?
Oh, my heart's racing.
Tough break about your sister, though.
She's our new lead.
An unfortunate twist.
But justice, like my lemon juicy eyes,
is blind.
I really can't see, Keys.
-Which way? Is that you? -Oh, follow my voice. Yeah.
Tilly Green, it's unfortunate we have to meet
under su
We're just going to ask you a couple of questions.
Yeah. Questions.
Well, officers, I'd be happy to cooperate.
However, I must insist that my lawyer, Saxon, be present.
-Why, I ought to-- -Easy, partner.
At 1300 hours, we found this piece of litter on the street.
And I got a witness that places you at the scene of the crime.
My lawyer says I don't got to say nothing.
Ah! Confess!
We know the lolly's yours. Don't play dumb!
-Is that too much? -No, no, I love the energy.
Confess!
Whoa, okay, okay.
I admit the lollipops were mine.
I was Benny's supplier, all right.
It was a pretty good racket, too.
Benny got more customers,
and I got to watch my friends enjoy the lollies.
But if one of them ended up on my street,
that is out of my hands.
I'm sorry, but I'm not the litterbug.
-What do we do now? -I don't know.
I already knocked everything off the desk.
Maybe do it again.
[yells]
If there are no further questions, I'll be on my way.
All right, Tilly, you're free to go.
Listen, Cricket, there are cameras all over the city.
They'll tell you what you're looking for.
But I must warn you, trust no one,
-especially not your partner. -What?
Are you saying what I think you're saying?
That Officer Keys is the litterbug?
She's gone.
We're so close.
We can't let this litterbug slip through our fingers.
You're right, Keys.
We can't.
Well, that litterbug just boils my blood!
[gasps] The security cameras.
Say, Keys, why don't you go cool off.
Get us a couple of coffees.
Yeah, a bunch of hot coffee will cool me down.
[laughs]
All right, got to act fast.
You can't hide your dirty crimes from me, Keys.
Just need to see the footage from the last few days.
There he is, you dirty rascal.
Ooh, look, and there I am.
Ha, still got it.
That dang cup just wouldn't stay on my head.
Oh, me again.
Uh, I think I came back for that.
Oh. Oh, no, no, no.
No. Oh, no.
Oh, this can't be right.
The banana.
No! This means that...
I'm the litterbug!
Huh?
Oh, Officer Keys.
How-- How long have you been standing there, partner?
Long enough.
I know it looks bad, but I can explain.
It's just like you said, Cricket.
You go easy on this litterbug
and they'll keep littering and littering
until we're up to our eyes in trash.
Twenty years to life, remember?
Don't you dare.
Aah!
[panting]
Keys, we can talk this out.
Just you stop running first, then I'll stop running.
I didn't know I was littering.
That's basically the same as being innocent, right?
[grunts]
A repeat offender.
Aah!
[squawks]
-Hi, Cricket! -Aah! Tilly?
What are you doing here?
I have my own life.
Tilly, Officer Keys found out that I'm the litterbug,
and now he's after me.
Well, I told you not to trust him.
But I wouldn't worry too much.
Keys is usually pretty nice.
I'm sure he'll be understanding about it.
Well, I might have convinced him to cast away his humanity.
Oh. Then you should run for your life,
because he's right behind you.
What? Aah!
-[both panting] -Bye, Cricket.
[panting]
Aah!
[screaming]
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Oh, boy.
There's nowhere left to run, partner.
It's time to go to the station.
Keys, don't do this. It's not like you.
You said being tough was the only way to get results.
I know, but I was wrong.
You were right from the beginning.
Everyone makes mistakes.
And maybe sometimes going easy on people
is the right thing to do.
That's how everyone should be treated.
Do you really believe that?
Yes. I do.
Oh, thank goodness.
Being tough is so exhausting.
Can you imagine if I had to be like that all the time?
Yeah, that'd be horrifying.
Say, do you mind if I move just a little closer?
-Oh, of course. -Oh, that's much better.
Thanks for being so understanding, Keys.
And I really appreciate you letting me off the hook.
Uh, what's this now?
I'll go easy on you,
but I can't let you off scot-free.
Isn't this great?
It's like we're still working together.
Well, Cricket, you kept your word.
You are cleaning up the streets.
[all laugh]
