-(ROARING) -(ANIMALS CHITTERING)
This is Vanessa Vue, live from the scene at the Smithville Zoo,
where the resident animals have risen up,
herbivore and carnivore alike,
in a truly stunning display of food chain unity,
claiming cruel and unusual punishment caused by the use
-of the universally-reviled Proud Snacks. -(ROARS)
I have with me protest organizer, Shuggie the Giant Panda.
Mr. Shuggie, what do you hope to accomplish with this protest?
Vanessa Vue, girl, you looking like a snack to these hungry eyes.
-(GROWLS) -(GIGGLES)
-Mr. Shuggie! -Okay, so, look.
You wanna know why Shuggie's out here with all his food-insecure friends
protestin' today? Well, it's simple.
We wanna make sure that no zoo animal, or human for that matter,
will ever be subjected to Oscar Proud and his nasty, nasty snacks.
(THUDS)
We demand the food court launch an investigation immediately.
And I'm not talking about the mall either.
Well, you know what that means, boys. I've gotta let you go.
(GASPS) Why, Mr. Proud?
Can't you hear, Peabo? They're gonna investigate me.
Which means no zoo account. Which means no zoo money.
Which means I can't afford zoo. I mean, I can't afford you.
-But you don't pay us, Mr. Proud. -(MR. CHIPS GROWLS)
You just give us two bags of Proud Snacks
and a hearty handshake at the end of the day.
Well, I can't afford that either. Can't you hear me? I'm ruined!
Now beat it! I can't believe this!
Why, why? Why have you forsaken me?
(MR. CHIPS GRUNTS)
-You missed! -(SHOUTING)
(SINGING) The... Proud... Family... What?
You and me will always be tight
Family every day and every night
Even when you start acting like a fool
You know that I'm lovin' every single thing you do
I know I can always be myself
When I'm with you more than anybody else
Every single day that I'm headed off to school
You know there's no one I love as much as you
-The family -The family
Proud family
They'll make you scream!
They'll make you wanna sing!
It's a family thing, a family A proud, proud family
Proud family
They'll push your buttons!
They'll make you wanna hug 'em
A family, family Proud, proud family
(OSCAR SCREAMS)
(CHUCKLING, BABBLING)
-Trudy! Where's my tie? -Around your neck.
It wasn't when I looked in the mirror.
Look, Oscar, I don't have time to fool around with you.
-I have an emergency call. -Emergency?
Peabo? Mr. Chips? What are you doin' here? I fired you.
-And I hired them, Oscar. -What?
You can't work for me, but you can work for my wife? Treason.
But, Mr. Proud, you just said we were fired.
That was a figure of speech, Peabo.
So is a livin' wage. Which, by the way, Dr. Parker is payin' us.
-Parker? -Oscar, the emergency is at the zoo, okay?
There's no way I can use my married name. They hate you.
-Oh, so that's the way it's gonna be. -That's the way it is, my brother.
Now I'm gonna need you to drop Bebe and Cece off at school.
Is their last name Parker, too?
-What do you think? -(GIGGLING)
It's just for the next couple of weeks until this whole thing blows over.
-Thank you. You're a sweetheart. -(BEBE BABBLING)
Look, I don't have time today, Trudy.
I've got things to do. I've been subpoenaed.
It's not the first time you've been subpoenaed, Oscar.
Take the kids.
Hey, family! I'm off to school. I'm gonna be home late.
Whoa, wait a minute, young lady. You'll be home late doin' what?
It's not like that, Daddy. Me and my friends are going to the museum.
Good. You can take Bebe and Cece with you,
because you gotta take them to school and pick 'em up.
Mama!
Come on, Penny. We don't ask you to do much around here as it is.
This is the least you can do.
You literally ask me to do everything around here.
-What was that? -Nothing.
-Your wish is my command. -(BABBLING)
-Come on, y'all. Bebe! Stop! -(BEBE LAUGHING)
Oh! Slow down, little Sly and the Family Stone.
Thank you, Mr. Hankins.
Any time, Penny Proud. Where's your daddy?
If you mean Sir Pain-A-Lot, he's over there.
-Come on, Bebe. -(CHUCKLES) Hey, keep your head up, Penny.
Hello, Igloo. How are things at the mall?
I don't know, Miss Trudy. I don't work there no more.
Oh, what happened? They let you go?
No. I let them go. I'm an attorney now.
In fact, I'm representing Oscar at the food court.
You're an attorney?
(LAUGHING)
What law school did you go to?
Same place I became a detective.
The Acme School of Criminal Arts. (CHUCKLES)
(LAUGHING)
Oscar, will you please take out the garbage before you go to jail?
-(LAUGHING) -(PEABO SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY)
TRUDY: Cut it out, Peabo, you crazy!
Nah, don't pay them any attention, Igloo. You ready for the hearin'?
Almost.
Uh, ain't you forgettin' a little somethin' somethin', Oscar?
-Nope. -My retainer.
Retainer? You're fired.
Hey, hold, hold, whoa, whoa, now. Don't be so hasty, brother.
If you don't have it, we can do layaway.
-Like I said, you're fired. -Okay, okay. It's pro-bono.
-And I repeat, you're fired. -Pro-bono means free, fool.
I don't speak French. How am I supposed to know?
(ENGINE STARTS, REVVING)
(CRASHES)
(CHILDREN CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)
(BEBE BABBLING)
Hey, y'all.
Look, I got bad news. I can't go to the museum.
-Why? -I have to watch Bebe and Cece.
Zang! Again?
What's up with that? They're not your kids.
You know you have rights as a teen. You need to stand up for yourself, Penny.
Maya, I've got two Black parents. I don't have any rights.
Why don't you do what I do? Pay my brother Basil to baby-sit.
He's watchin' my other brothers and sisters right now.
Basil?
Yo, yo, yo. B-izzle's in-charge!
You know, I'm just gonna have to miss the fun. You guys go on ahead.
All right, we'll see you around.
ZOEY: We're gonna miss you. See ya!
You don't have to miss out on anything, Penny.
You can bring Bebe and Cece with us.
-You don't mind? -No, I love little kids.
-Especially cute little ones like these. -Yay! (GIGGLES)
-Who's the cutest in the world? -(BOTH LAUGH)
(BEBE AND CECE BABBLING AND GIGGLING)
(CHILDREN BABBLING)
So, Kareem, you still like kids?
Yeah, I do. But I'm starting not to like your parents.
Ow!
Bebe! Cece! Stop!
Stop or I'll throw away your thingy doll.
-(CRYING) -(BABBLING)
Well, nobody else is.
You can actually understand what they're sayin'?
Nope. But they understand me. (GASPS) Where'd everybody go?
I don't know. Why don't we go check out the minisub?
How are the four of us gonna fit in a minisub?
I bet Bebe and Cece would like to see the nursery.
(BOTH GRUNT)
PENNY: Oh.
I know they would. (CHUCKLES)
(GRUNTS)
PENNY: Bebe!
(SCREAMS)
Where's Bebe?
Kareem, we gotta find Bebe!
L-Let's split up. Text me if you see him.
-Yay! (GIGGLES) -PENNY: Bebe!
Bebe! Bebe!
-Hey, Zoey! -(ZOEY GASPS)
Have you guys seen Bebe?
Nope. We haven't seen him, Penny.
What were y'all about to do?
Uh, Penny? You're bein' a real Hobgoblin right about now.
-Myron! -Sorry. My bad.
Bebe! Have you guys seen Bebe? I lost him.
Ooh, you lost your brother? They're gonna put you away, Penny.
I think I saw him floating around in the space exhibit.
You saw a little kid floating around in outer space and you didn't do anything?
Outer space? Hello, we're in a museum.
Bebe! Bebe!
Bebe!
Dijonay, have you seen Bebe? I lost him.
I told you to let Basil baby-sit, Penny.
Yeah, and where's your space suit, Penny?
If this was real space, you'd be a popsicle right now.
Look. All I wanna hear from you, Urban Dictionary,
-is if you saw my baby brother. -Jeez, okay.
Your energy's bad. Come on, Dijonay, we out.
I think I saw him over by the hyperloop, Penny.
Darrius! Wait for me! And Penny, watch out for that black hole.
What black hole?
(SCREAMS)
(VIDEO GAME BEEPING)
(SCREAMS, GRUNTS)
Bebe! Bebe!
Do you have to be so loud, Proud? He got off at the holodeck.
Yo, you better buckle up, Penny. This thing go mad fast.
(TRAIN REVVING)
(PENNY SCREAMS)
(THUDS)
Wow, Billy, this is so cool. And so are you.
Yeah. I wonder if when we touch, we feel anything.
-Bebe! -(GRUNTS)
Penny, what happened to you?
I'll explain later. Have you guys seen Bebe? I'm in big trouble. I lost him.
(SCOFFS) This is what happens when you don't stand up for yourself.
You get rolled over.
-Literally. -Oh, man!
If I don't find Bebe, I'm gonna have to disappear just like they did.
Bebe! (CRIES) Oh, Bebe! I looked everywhere, Kareem.
(SIGHS) Me too.
Where could he be?
Uh, Penny? I think we found Bebe. But you ain't gon' like it.
(PEOPLE GASPING)
(GIGGLING)
PENNY: How'd he get all the way up there?
Don't worry, Penny. I'll get him down.
-Be careful, Kareem. -(PEOPLE CHATTERING)
(GRUNTING)
(GASPS)
(METAL RATTLING)
-BEBE: Ooh. -(GASPS)
-(PEOPLE SCREAMING) -MAN: Oh, no!
(GASPS)
(PEOPLE SCREAMING)
-(CRASHES) -(GLASS BREAKING)
Dang, that kid can really fly.
-Oh, What am I gonna do, Kareem? -(KAREEM GASPS)
My parents are gonna kill me.
(BEBE BABBLES)
-Bebe, what are you doin' up there? -(BEBE LAUGHS)
(BABBLES)
Bebe!
-WOMAN: Somebody catch... -(PEOPLE GASP)
(KAREEM CHUCKLES)
(BEBE LAUGHS)
Instead of worrying about Peabo and Mr. Chips,
you need to focus on getting a real attorney
before they put you out of business, Oscar.
Mmm-hmm. So you're refusing to comply with my request to return my employees?
Yes, because they're my employees now.
Igloo said you'd say that. Is that real enough for you?
-What is this? (GASPS) -You've been served, that's what it is.
-For what? -Poaching!
Until you came along, Peabo and Mr. Chips
were happy with two bags of snacks and a handshake.
Well, I guess that means you don't want to be served.
A-ha! Igloo said you'd say that too.
Got my favorite six bean burrito from Wiz-potle.
Hey, Penny. How did it go with Bebe and Cece today?
Oh, it was great. We had so much fun at the museum.
Well, good. Because we need you to watch them again tomorrow, baby.
Wha... Oh, come on, Mom.
I can't do it. You have no idea what I've been through.
-But you just said it was fun. -No, it wasn't!
-I just lied to make you and Daddy happy. -(CHILDREN LAUGHING)
Guess what? Tomorrow you need to make us happy again.
-But, Daddy! Mama! -No, "but," baby girl!
-You heard your daddy. -Okay, look.
-I wasn't gonna say anything, but... -Where's Bebe?
(TOY SQUEAKING)
-Not again! -Again?
Bebe is impossible, Mama.
He did the same thing at the museum today.
What? You better find my baby.
Don't worry, I know exactly where he is.
(CHUCKLING)
Whee!
(GASPS)
-Oscar, get my baby off that roof. -(BEBE BABBLES)
How am I supposed to do that, fly?
You better get my baby!
-Now! -(SCREAMS)
(BEBE BABBLES)
(CHUCKLING)
Bebe, buddy? Stay still, okay? Daddy's coming.
BEBE: Whee!
(CHUCKLING)
-(SCREAMS) -(THUDS)
-(GROANING) -(BABBLES)
-(PENNY GASPS) -Bebe, are you okay?
-(BABBLES) -(GROANS)
We're taking you to the doctor right now. Come on, Oscar.
I need a doctor, Trudy. (BREATHING HEAVILY)
I think I dislocated my shoulder. (GROANS)
(SCREAMS)
There, now it's relocated.
(OSCAR CRYING IN PAIN)
What kind of two-year-old witch doctor are you?
Zip it, Oscar, and drive!
-(CAR DOORS CLOSE) -(TIRES SCREECH)
TRUDY: He fell off the roof.
I don't know how he got up there. And he didn't even cry when he landed.
Uh, Dr. Payne? I think my neck is broken.
-Quiet, fool! -(SCREAMS)
You see I'm examinin' little Benjamin.
You hit me. Igloo's gonna sue you for malpractice.
Wait a minute. The pain is gone.
I feel great. Unless you broke my spine.
I'm a chiropractor, too. You owe me $500.
And I don't take insurance.
So, Dr. Proud, has this happened before?
Penny?
Well, earlier today I took Bebe to the museum
and he climbed up to this plane
and kind of flew it around before jumping out onto the roof.
-Flew what? -Oh, don't worry,
-Kareem caught him when he fell. -He fell?
Oh, my poor baby. He must've been scared to death.
No, it was like nothing happened. He was giggling and having fun.
Hmm. Well, that's a horse of another color.
(BLOWS)
(LAUGHING)
(BEBE LAUGHS)
Stop, fool. (LAUGHS)
Hmm.
(SHIVERS) Cold. Cold, cold, cold, cold, cold, cold.
Well, that's cold. That's cold. That's cold, that's cold!
(LAUGHS)
Hey. (BABBLES)
(YELPS) Cheese and crackers!
Mmm. Unless this boy's a baby Black Adam, I think something bigger may be goin' on.
What?
Well, I'm no expert, but I know someone who is.
Just tell her Dr. Payne sent you.
Oh, great. This is gettin' better and better.
-A quack that knows a quack. -Who you callin' a quack?
Here's another smack.
-Ow! -On the house, fool.
I think he broke me again. (GRUNTS)
-(GRUNTS) -(THUDS)
Thank you for seeing us on such short notice, Dr. Lord.
My pleasure.
You have two lovely children. Happy, healthy. You should be proud.
Cece, I'm glad to report, is in the high nineties percentile
for every single developmental evaluation that I gave her.
Bebe, however...
What? What's wrong with my baby?
I believe Bebe is showing signs of what we call autism.
OSCAR: You callin' my boy stupid?
I knew Payne sent us to a quack. Let's go, Trudy.
-We don't have to listen to this. -TRUDY: Oscar, sit down.
No, Trudy. It's all right.
Look, Mr. Proud, my evaluation shows Bebe is highly intelligent,
extremely curious and absolutely fearless.
The last of which I suspect is because he doesn't process pain
the way you and I do.
And though it's not always the case, it's a common indicator of...
An indicator of what?
Mr. Proud, I sense your apprehension.
But all an autism diagnosis means
is Bebe will need a little extra effort and attention.
-What? -(BABBLES)
So just to be clear, Dr. Lord,
-you're saying Bebe is on the spectrum? -Yes.
Yes, I am.
Bebe is at a lower support level, but it might change and fluctuate
as he grows up, sometimes day-to-day.
However, needing support doesn't equate to lack of ability.
It's most important for you, his family
to continue believing in him, teaching him
and helping him reach his full potential.
Look, I know this is a lot to take in
and you're gonna need time to process.
But the good news is, I run a school
for exceptional children like Bebe and I would love to work with him.
Ha-ha! There it is! I knew it. I suppose this school isn't free, is it, huh?
-'Course not. -Okay, Trudy, let's get out of here.
There's nothing wrong with Bebe.
Oscar, relax. Dr. Lord knows what she's talking about.
And I know what I'm talking about. There's nothing wrong with my son.
Bebe? How did you...
-Come on, let's get outta here. -(CHUCKLES)
Oscar, stop being ridiculous.
-(CECE LAUGHING) -(BEBE BABBLES)
I apologize for my parents, Dr. Lord.
That's okay. I'm used to it. How are you doing, Penny?
How am I doing about what?
I mean, how do you feel about all of this?
I don't feel anything.
Are you sure? I'm certain you've been under pressure too, being the oldest.
Do you have any concerns?
No.
Yeah. I do.
Instead of my dad sending him to your school, they're gonna turn around
and put Bebe on me. I just know it.
And you resent that? I know I would.
Yeah. But I know I shouldn't.
You must think I'm terrible.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Penny.
I think you're in a tough situation.
And the first step in not feeling bad is acknowledging it.
Listen, any time you wanna talk, I'm here, okay?
If my daddy won't pay for Bebe, you know he won't pay for me to talk to you.
(CHUCKLES) Oh, don't worry, Penny. It's free.
(CHILDREN BABBLING)
(CHILDREN LAUGHING)
Oscar, we really should listen to that Dr. Lord.
I looked up that school of hers.
Honey, they're doing amazing things with kids on the spectrum.
My son is not on a spectrum or whatever that is.
He's just a little rambunctious like his old man.
See? Just like me. There's nothin' wrong with that.
(SCREAMS) Ow!
(LAUGHING)
Fool, you are in denial.
I'm out, family. I'll get somethin' to eat on the way to school.
Now you hold it right there, young lady.
You need to drop off and pick up Bebe and Cece from school today.
Come on, that's not fair.
You should put Bebe in that school like Dr. Lord suggested.
-There's nothin' wrong with Bebe. -Oscar, Penny's right.
This isn't fair. We can't put this all on her.
And whether you accept it or not, we need help with Bebe.
See? Nobody... You know what? Forget it. I'll take care of the kids.
-Oscar... -I have spoken.
-Why do you think that works? -Because it does. Now where's Bebe?
-(LAUGHING) -Oscar!
Come on, you've never seen a baby sitting on top of a backboard before?
-This kid's gonna go pro. -Man, if you don't get my baby down...
Bebe!
-TRUDY: Oscar, please listen to Dr. Lord. -(LAUGHING)
Never!
(GRUNTS) How big are you? You got a head bigger than your mama.
That should hold you. Keep an eye on him, Cece.
(COUGHS)
What the heck is that, Peabo?
It's a powerful disinfectant, Mr. Proud.
The same one they had to use at the White House.
(CHUCKLES)
I gotta say, I'm touched that you boys decided to come back
and help me save my business.
We had to. You filed a court injunction, Mr. Proud.
Yeah, that's right. And you just learned an important lesson too, Peabo.
No money, no justice.
Now load the machines like I told you, or you'll be doin' time in Wizcatraz.
But, Mr. Proud, these are Freddy Frito Snacks.
I bought 'em. That makes them Proud Snacks.
Now put them in the machine. The food court is on the way.
Okay, Mr. Proud. But I wouldn't do that if I were you.
The combination of these ingredients with the residue of your Proud Snacks
-could be combustible. -(STOMACH RUMBLES)
That breakfast burrito I ate last night is makin' me combustible.
Just do it, Peabo!
Oscar, the food court is here. Are you ready for the inspection?
(SNIFFING) Uh...
Oh, that's... Oh, man, that's that smells good and bad at the same time.
What is that smell?
Uh, breakfast burrito? I got a half left, you want it?
Free breakfast? Don't mind if I do.
Oh, I wouldn't do that, Mr. Igloo, if I was you.
Uh, I think I'll pass on that, Oscar.
Good. I wasn't gonna give you none anyway.
(CHOMPS, BURPS)
Well, well, well, Oscar Proud.
Wait a minute. (SNIFFS)
-What's that smell, y'all? -INSPECTOR: Ugh.
Breakfast burrito. And there's none left, so don't even ask.
Well, I do have one question, Oscar Proud. (CHUCKLES)
Any last words before Kelly shuts you down?
No way you're shuttin' me down, Wizard.
I passed the inspection. As you can see, I already got an A rating.
Au contraire. This is merely a poorly altered F.
Oh, uh, wait, uh, I can explain. Peabo did it.
But you told me to, Mr. Proud!
Quiet, Peabo!
What's that itty-bitty baby with that big old Afro doin' way up there, y'all?
(CHUCKLES) What baby? You ta... Bebe!
(LAUGHING)
-Stay right there, Daddy's comin'. -BEBE: Whee!
-(GRUNTS) -Whee!
-Dada! -(EXPLOSION)
-(BEBE LAUGHS) -(SCREAMS)
-(OSCAR SCREAMING, GRUNTS) -BEBE: Whee!
(MACHINERY WHISTLING)
(SCREAMS)
BEBE: Whee!
(GRUNTS)
(BABBLES, CHUCKLES)
Well, that was exciting.
If the Wizard were grading this factory for entertainment, he'd give you an A.
But since he's not, you fail, Oscar Proud. Your business is officially closed, y'all.
(CHUCKLES) But let's be honest. You weren't really open, were you?
(LAUGHS)
(LAUGHING)
(BREATH TREMBLING)
(SNIFFLES)
What am I gonna do with you, Bebe?
(LAUGHS)
(CHILDREN LAUGHING)
Don't worry, Mr. and Mrs. Proud. You made the right decision.
Okay. Well, I guess we'll be on our way then.
Baby, you behave yourself, okay?
(LAUGHS)
Daddy! (LAUGHING)
There you go, little man. Keep ya head up.
(CHILDREN LAUGHING)
Okay, everybody, listen up.
Please say hello to our new student,
Benjamin Proud, aka
Bebe.
