Fight The Future - Part 3

1 Shelby: Previously on Best Friends Whenever (Both screaming) Janet knows we're time travelers. She's gonna come back and use us to give her the power to time travel. Janet: So I created a device I call the tachyometer. It senses the presence of tachyon particles. The tachyometer also gives me the ability to remember every timeline that I'm in. So time jump all you want. I'll remember everything. Just like you do. Barry and Naldo are frozen! Shelby: Are you serious? Cyd: Janet's got 'em on display like trophies. Barry, we need you to take away our powers in the Future Lab. (Beeping) It's gone. And I know that Barry is the brains behind all of it. So instead of taking you two, I took him and his friend and all their equipment. They are going to synthesize time travel for me. And now you are powerless to do anything about it. Janet, please, you have to let Barry and Naldo go! Not until they give me the ability to time travel. They've been trying for a year! They don't know how! Then you'll never see them again, so you might want to get some new friends. Maybe through a club or a team you can join. These are just suggestions, you don't have to take them. We're not gonna let you do this! There's nothing you can do. You gave up your powers. By the way, I never said, "Thank you. " Thank you for being a couple of idiots. You're welcome! Why would you say, "You're welcome"? 'Cause I was brought up right! We are idiots. Every time we try to make things better, we make things worse. Janet was right. We don't have our power, there's nothing we can do. There is one person we could go to. Shelbs, we can't. We don't have a choice. He's the only one who can help us now. Make the call. Dad! Hmm (Sighs) (Grunts) (Groans) (Sighs) (Grunts) (Thud) So this is the guy who's gonna help us? Hi, girls. Dad, there's something we need to tell you. Janet Smythe is evil. Everybody knows that. She makes us stay late in order to finish our work. If you're an adult and you hated your job you'd know how awful that is. Dad, she's seriously evil. She's taken Barry and Naldo and all their equipment and she's got them locked up! Probably in that lab with the glowing tables and the lasers and Whoa, whoa, whoa! How do you know about that? That's top secret. Which is why we needed your keycard to get in there. What? You guys took my keycard? I had to lie about that. I could've been fired! You don't understand, she's taken Barry and Naldo! Making up crazy stories is only going to make things worse. I'm very disappointed in both of you. But Dad, I Now, I'm going to be late for work. We'll talk about this later. Now what are we gonna do? We're on our own. I know it sounds crazy But time doesn't faze me Ever since it lost its hold on me Hey, hey Hung out till midnight Missed the curfew, that's all right I'm back to bed and right on time, you'll see Whenever You need me I'm right there with you Whenever There's something You wanna redo The clock is ticking but not for me I'm living in a different reality Whenever Whatever Wherever I'm right there with you I'm right there with you Hey, hey Janet, please let us go. I don't know how to give you the power to time travel. Don't listen to him, Janet. He's the smartest guy I've ever known. If anyone can give you the power to time travel, it's him. Whose side are you on? Uh, yours, Barry. I just said you can do it. I think you can do it, too. You just need the proper motivation. (Banging on door) Barry! Barry! Barry! Janet, please, you can't do this! You know what you need to do to get him out. Okay fine! I'll do it! I'll find a way to give you the power to time travel! Just let my friend out! I thought you'd see it my way. Barry! Thank goodness you're okay! I'm okay? What are you talking about? Janet had you trapped outside of a box. And I was safe in there with a bunch of cool robot spiders. I'm so sorry you had to go through that, Barry. There's gotta be something in here we can use to help Barry and Naldo. Like this fuzzy hockey puck? Fuzzy hockey puck? I think that's an old donut. Nope, don't know what that is. Let's just keep looking. Cyd! Remember? The day we got blasted by Barry's laser and turned into time travelers, you opened that cooler, and a beaker of blue stuff popped out. And the laser went through the beaker before it hit us. That's why Barry hasn't been able to recreate time travel. He didn't use the blue stuff! Janet must've taken it with the rest of the equipment. But she doesn't know what it is. Shelbs, we have the answer to time travel. We can trade that information for Barry and Naldo. But if Janet has that power, it leads to the future where Barry and Naldo are frozen. It's like, everything we do, she wins. This is why we got rid of our power. We're not superheroes. But we have to do something. I've got it. Let's just bust into GDD and figure it out as we go. You mean without knowing how we're getting in, what we're doing when we get there, or how we're getting out? Yes. That sounds like us. Let's do it! Please, Senor Greg, you can't leave. Bret and Chet love their Mariachi lessons. Where's Senor Greg? I blew my horn so hard I passed out. When I came to, he was gone. Senor Greg can't teach you anymore. I guess we won't need these now. What are you doing? Oh, sorry. What will we do now? You're just gonna have to find some other way to entertain yourselves. I know what we can do to entertain us. Let's get Barry and Naldo to entertain us. They abandoned their clubhouse, Chet. We can use it for anything we want. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Both: Trendy night club! I like the way you think. All right. Let's do this just like we planned. But we didn't plan anything. Exactly. Shelby: That was awesome! Little less awesome. Please! We need to talk to Janet Smythe! Tell her we have the answer she's looking for! (Sighs) Janet: Wait! Bring them inside. Chet, what are you doing? Bret and I are playing trendy night club. I'm the DJ. He's the dirt bag promoter. Have fun, sweetheart. Dirtbag promoter. That is so Bret. I brought all the stuff to be a DJ. I brought 500 people. But our club only holds 10 people. Exactly. The second they heard they might not get in, they started lining up. People want what they can't have. It's like this excellent rock that you can't have. I want that excellent rock so bad! Give it to me! See what I did there? I don't care! Give me the rock! (Beeps) Hi, I ordered a grilled cheese, side of fries and a pickle about an hour ago. Is that on the way, or Renaldo, we're being held prisoner. There's no room service. Never mind. Sorry, Barry, what were you saying? Never mind. Cyd! Shelby! What are you doing here? We came to rescue you. But first, what's the status of those fries? Are those for the table, or Enough! I brought you to your friends. Now it's time to hold up your end of the bargain. Tell me the secret to time travel. They don't know the secret to time travel. Actually, Barry, we figured it out. You figured out time travel? You guys? Yup. The ones who don't know the difference between quantum tunneling and quantum coupling? Yeah, that's us. When they own their limitations like that, it's very hard to insult them. So tell me. How does it work? Let our friends go first. No. You tell me the secret, then I let them go. You let them go, then we tell you. It looks like we have ourselves a standoff. (Music playing) Club Brother and Brother is Portland's trendiest club, and I'm the reason it's so successful. No, I am. They come to Club Brother and Brother for my fresh beats and excellent rock. People come because I'm an unstoppable hype machine. That's why I'm the "brother" in Brother and Brother. You're a jerk face. They should call this place Jerk face and Jerk face. You just called yourself a jerk face. It was worth it. You know what? I don't want to play trendy night club anymore. I quit. You can't quit 'cause you're fired! I just hired a new DJ. His name's DJ My-Phone-On-Shuffle! You ruined the club! You ruined the club! What is going on? Chet's diva-like behavior is alienating our exclusive clientele! Bret's being a butt! Boys, whatever game you're playing, it's not worth fighting over. Nothing should come between you. You're brothers. No pretend night club can change that. You're right, Mom. I'm sorry, Chet. I was being a butt. And I'm sorry, too, Bret. I wasn't listening to what you just said. Tell me the secret to time travel. Is it a process? A formula? An object? Ah-ha! You looked at each other! It's an object! Gah, why'd we look at each other? Whatever else she says, we can't look at each other. Is it something in this room? Ah-ha! It is in this room! Both: Gah! So it's something in this room. But what? Boy, if I knew what it was, I'd have a hard time not looking at it right now. Nothing you say is gonna make us look at that blue beaker Yes, I know what I just did. The blue beaker! Take them to Level Nine. They've volunteered to be test subjects in our new suspended animation program. Ms. Smythe, I need your signature on What are you kids doing here? Ms. Smythe, I am so sorry if they snuck in again. Dad! Janet's crazy! She's gonna freeze us in suspended animation! Shelby, enough with your stories! Freeze him, too! Say what now? Don't anybody move or I will delete break room bagels from the company budget! Don't test me! I'm just crazy enough to do it! Just get him! Get all of them! No! Leave my kids alone! (Screams) (Grunts) Shelby, I'm sorry I didn't believe you. (Straining) Can we get more security in here? Preferably someone who can fight off a man with a chair? How are we gonna get out of here? There's only one way. We did it! It's two days ago. We're back to before Janet ransacked the RV and took Barry and Naldo. But we got our powers back. The whole point was to get rid of it to protect our friends. This stupid time travel has messed up everything. What were we supposed to do, Shelby? We were trapped in the Future Lab. Guys, I'm so glad you're okay. Me, too. I love being okay. Why wouldn't we be okay? Oh, no, what time-tastrophe did you two create now? Now, did that work? Time-tastrophe? I was gonna say ca-time-strophe, but time-tastrophe is easier to understand. Cyd, I just remembered Janet has the tachyometer! She's gonna remember everything we did! I remember everything you did. What? Did someone just say that? That's right, I remembered everything from our little face-off in my lab in the future. So I stopped by Barry's RV and got what I need to give myself the power of time travel. (Snaps fingers) Is that from my lab? Yeah, we figured out the secret to time travel. We did it! Actually, Barry, you weren't involved in I said we did it! I'm gonna get the power right here just to see the looks on your faces. We're not gonna let you do this. What're you gonna do to stop me? Everything you've tried has brought me closer to this moment. You left the tachyons in my garage, you told me you were time travelers, you gave me the secret to time travel. You don't deserve this power. I do. Charge up the laser! What? Fine, move everything closer to the outlet. All because Phil forgot the extension cord! Everything we've done has made it worse. You were right, Shelby. We have our power back, but there's nothing we can do. It's over. We've lost. Maybe it won't work on Janet. She doesn't have someone to time travel with. She's going to zap herself. She'll be a single time traveler. Aw, Barry, don't say that. I'm sure there's plenty of eligible time travelers out there. I know there's not, but I don't want her to feel hopeless. Let's see. Where do I go first? I know, I'll jump back and keep you two from ever meeting. Then you'll never be friends and you'll never interfere with me again! Say goodbye to each other. Shelbs, what are we gonna do? We can't lose each other. Then let's fight back. (Grunts) (Buzzing) What's happening? What are you doing? It's called "jump jamming!" You're not going anywhere! You can't stop me! Don't listen to her, Shelbs! We can do this! Renaldo, this is a hugely dangerous situation. The convergence of three different tachyon sources has the potential to create a thermo-tachyal explosion. So we should get everyone out of here. Yes, and preferably 3,000 miles away. And in space. Then we better hurry. (Rumbling) Listen, I know this is fascinating. You are witnessing the universe's first ever time travelers' duel. This is likely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Barry. Space? Right, of course. Those who want to live, follow me. And the rest of you, follow me. Let's see how you handle this! She's too strong! Shelby, don't give up. We can do this together. (Explosion) Cyd, are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay. I can't jump! My power's been drained! Get them! (Grunting) (Grunting continues) Who are they? They're awesome! Cyd. I think that's No. It can't be. Did we just take out a room full of Janet Smythe's guards? I think we did! Oh, yeah, that's us. Don't freak out, but your battle with Janet opened a time rift. We came through it to help you. Thanks, Future Shelby. Actually, I just go by Shelby. Hey, me too! So you're what we become some day? Your future isn't written. We're just one possibility. And if a guy in a chipmunk costume asks you if you can watch the door to a bank, just say no. Did you say, "Yes"? Just say, "No!" I'm gonna destroy you. (Grunting) (Janet screaming) We'll take it from here. We've got a place for people like her. Is it time jail? Well, we just call it jail, but you could call it time jail. I can't tell if that's friendly or condescending. Classic me! (Chuckles) It's probably safer if we take the blue beaker with us. Also, once the rift seals behind us, the timeline will reset and no one else will remember anything that happened. See you around. You guys are cool buttons. That's future slang. No it's not, don't mess with them! I can't believe everything's back to normal. I can't believe we finally stopped Janet Smythe. What do we do now? I mean, we still have our powers. Should we get Barry to take them away again? Shelbs, we took down a supervillain. And you know how we did it? Yeah, I know, with time travel. No, with each other. That's our super power. Our friendship. Cyd. That is the cheesiest thing either of us has ever said and it came out of your mouth. I'm serious. When the whole world was against us Janet had our friends, your dad didn't believe us, we didn't even have our powers We had each other. I couldn't have done any of this stuff without you. I never could've done any of this stuff without you. And you'll never have to. 'Cause we're cool buttons. You know, Future Me made it very clear that's not really a thing. But we're gonna make it a thing. Together. So the blue beaker was the secret all along? I don't even remember having a blue beaker in here. It was in that cooler. Wait, that was my homemade hair gel! Wow. Naldo's hair gel was the key to cracking time travel. It's also the key to manageable hair. Renaldo, we must synthesize a new batch immediately! What was in it? I remember exactly how I made it. It was green It was blue. Then I have no idea how I made it. Wow, I can't believe we're finally done with the Future Lab. Don't get too comfortable, Shelbs. We're still time travelers. You know we'll get ourselves into something else crazy. Well, we'll handle it, Cyd. Whatever it is. (Both chuckle)
