Hyah![ Screaming ]
Oh, no.
On behalf of Miss Eliza,
we'd like to invite ya to the most -- Ugh!
I can't do this again!
Look, you're all invited
to the first annual Tea Timers Ball.
[ Grunts ]Now if you'll excuse me,
I must go deliver the rest of these invitations.
You're -- you're not gonna dance or sing?
Miss Eliza has invited everyone in the creek!
Do you have any idea how much I've sang and danced?!
Have a wonderful day!

Excuse me, mares.
Uh, Maney, could I talk to you for a moment?
[ Neighs, blusters ]
What's up, JP?
I, uh...
uh, do you wanna go with me
to the ball as, like, a date?
[ Whinnies ]
Yes!Ooh! Oh!
Oh, my gosh. I didn't mean to trample you.
[ Chuckles ] It's okay, Brainy.
Why would the Tea Timers invite everybody in the creek
to a dance?
They must be up to something.
I don't know. Maybe they just wanna show off?
No, I know what this is about.
Last time we got invited, she tried to get me
to cut a kid in half with an ax just for a piece of cake.
This ball is about getting revenge on me. I know it.
Yeah, either way, I don't wanna go.
Fancy isn't really my thing.
I'm more of a blood-and-guts kind of girl.
Hey, Kelsey.
Uh, hey...you...
-[ Whispers ] His name is Aaron. -Aaron!
Heh heh. Ooh.
Why -- why are you talking to me?
[ Clicking ]
[ Romantic music playing ]
[ Clears throat ] Kelsey, for a while now,
I've admired you from afar --
how you have a sword and a bird, how you always wear rain boots,
even when it's not raining.
And I just wanted to ask you --
Girl: I got a bike -- with an app!
That's right --Aah! No, stop!
Kelsey, will you go to the Tea Timers Ball with me?!
♪♪
[ Camera shutter clicks ]
Um...Uh...
Um...
Sure?
Oh, my gosh! Really?!
This is gonna be the best late afternoon ever!
She said "yes"! She said "yes"!
♪♪
Can't...wait.
And one and two, and one and two,
and then you rake the leaves! [ Dance music playing ]
Wow, JP, you're such a good dancer!
This is nothin'.
I got this other move where I put both my hands andfeet
up in the air at the same time.
It's called the skydiver! You wanna see it?
Yes!
All right, here I go! [ Grunts ]
Okay, so I have a few plausible theories
on how this Tea Timers "Ball"
is actually just a plot for Eliza to get revenge on me.
Let's start with the facts -- I got the scoop from Kit
that she filled a huge order of Choco-Rolls to Eliza.
As you know, ya boy Craiggy loves his Choco-Rolls,
so obviously I'm gonna eat them.
And once I do... Bam! Toothpaste filling!
But I ruled this one out, you see.
Why attack everyone when I'm her target? It's sloppy.
So then I thought, maybe I tire myself out dancing,
I take a seat in a chair
not realizing she's placed a Choco-Roll in it,
and...Boom! Chocolate on the butt!
But, of course... -[ Sighs heavily ]
neither of those are grand enough for Eliza.
That's when I connected the dots and realized her true plan --
surprise bee attack!
Um, yeah. Bees.
She's probably doing that.
I knew it! I'm gonna need bee-proof armor.
I bet the junk pile will have something.
Plus, I have to return this corkboard.
Oof!
[ Neighs ] You were in the air for so long!
Thanks! I could teach you to do it, if you want.
Hey, Kels, you wanna get in on this?
[ Groans ]
[ Birds chirping ]
[ Whinnies, clears throat ]
Hey, Kelsey. Everything okay?
You don't seem too excited about this dance.
Hmm? Oh, I thought I was hiding it well,
sitting here, sulking, with my head in my hands.
Oh, you weren't.
The truth is, I... [ Sighs ] I don't wanna go with Aaron.
Oh, really?
No. [ Sighs ] I just...
He got down on his knees and played that song.
And everyone was watching! I couldn't say no!
It would've been embarrassing for him!
And it would've made me look like the bad guy!
Ugh! And I'm not a bad guy!
I'm a hero, a warrior!
I don't hurt people's feelings. I hurt their bodies.
Well, it might not be so bad. Aaron seems nice.
Just because someone is nice
doesn't mean you connect on a romantic level.
You're nice, but you also make my heart race
like a pack of wild horses
galloping across the sand dunes by the sea.
[ Whinnies ]Aw!
And so to be clear,
Aaron does not do this for you, right, Kelsey?
No.
Then you should tell him.
You're not a bad person
for being honest about your feelings.
[ Sighs ] So you see, Aaron,
I-I don't actually wanna go to the dance with you.
So, um, are we cool?
[ Inhales deeply ]
Yeah. It's okay.
Wow! Really?
♪♪
I'll never love again.
[ Explosion ]Aah!
Ugh. Uh, on second thought, maybe I should just go
to the dance with him.
What's the worst thing that could happen?
[ Clock ticking ]
[ Squishing ]
Nothing gets the old heart pumping
like watching a fresh coat of paint dry, eh, Poopsie?
Take me now!
[ Angelic music playing ]
I'm coming home, Morty.
[ Explosion ]
Gah! I gotta find some way out of this!
I know you want to be nice,
but your feelings are important, too.
JP: Are you sure this is safe, Craig?
-Just do it. -Okay.
[ Drumroll]
Wow, that's a really tough suit.
Yep. Duct tape and phone books --
just in case Eliza's planning a physical attack.
Heh heh. Hey, Kelsey, wanna take a whack?
Huh? Oh.
Uh, no. I'm not really in the mood.
Kelsey, are you ready?
Uh, listen, uh, about that...
Uh, Mortimer got upset I changed his birdseed, so he...
pooped on all my dresses!
So, it doesn't look like I can go now.
Oh, it's okay, you look great! Plus, I got you a gift.
-Aah! -They're corsages!
And, of course, I couldn't forget your little friend there.
Say cheese![ Camera shutter clicks ]
Wow!
This is the happiest day of my life!
Shall we?
Uh...Uh...
[ Nervous whinny ]
Ah. Let's go.
Everyone needs to show their invitation to get in!

I think I can tolerate this for one night.
All right, everyone, it's time for a...

This one goes out to all the couples out there.
May I have this dance?
Mmm, nah, I'm okay.
I'm pretty tired from the last song.
I think I'll sit this one out.
Okay, that's fine.

Listen, Aaron, you don't do it for me.
You -- you don't make my heart pound
like the... horses of the ocean!
What? I don't like you!
Uh, like -- like that.
But I thought you wanted to go with me.
[ Sighs ] I only said "yes" because you asked me
in front of a group of people, and I felt pressured.
And when I tried to make an excuse earlier,
you didn't pick up on it. [ Groans ]
And I didn't mean to make you feel bad, but I just...
[ Sighs ] I don't want to be your date, Aaron.
I know it's what you want, but it -- it's not what I want.
Oh.
Mm. [ Hisses ]
Kelsey, I'm sorry for putting you on the spot like that.
You can keep the corsages.
It seems like your bird likes it.
Well, I'll see you around.

[ Grunting rhythmically ]
Hello, Miss Eliza. Tell me what you're up to!
Ay! It's peanut-head!
I know this whole party is just a front
so youcan get back at me!
Ha! Craig, you really think I am so petty
that I would do allof this just to get revenge on you
for messing up one of my little tea parties?
-Well... -No, no, no.
This party is for revenge on Sailor Boy
for not inviting me onto his parents' yacht!
[ Sobbing ]What's that? No invitations?
Well, that must hurt... a-yacht!
Daddy said I could only invite two friends!
A-boo hoo, I say!
I don't understand. This wasn't about me?
-Spin me! -You got it, baby!
'Cause I'm Toman, a.k.a., Spin Daddy!
A.k.a., the Twist and Shout!
Well, I was wrong.
Eliza never wanted revenge on me.
I feel so rejected.It's okay, Craig.
You've got plenty of other enemies
who probably can't wait to take revenge on you.
You're right! The creek is full of kids.
I'm sure one of them has a vendetta against me.
Thanks, Maney. You were right about telling him the truth.
I feel a lot better knowing that nobody is turning to dust.
What?Thanks.
Aw, of course. I knew you could do it.
Now, if you'll excuse me, this horse is hot to trot, heh.
