The Shell

School Play

 * Oh, my heart! Oh, it is broken! Argh! I'm going! I'm going! Argh! Ooh! This is the end of me!  Argh! My heart!
 * Audience: Ooh.
 * Is the beast gonna be all right? He just wanted to be loved!
 * Uhhhh.... [Mr. Small's hand helps Darwin talk] When Belle came to see the beast, she realized that she had loved him all along and cried for her lost love.
 * Thanks to your tears, Belle, the curse has been lifted!
 * They called him a beast because he looks like a beast, but her love made him beautiful!
 * Yeah. Now that the fairy's curse has been lifted, we can finally seal our love, [whispers] with a kiss!
 * [The stage disappears and Penny and Gumball are floating in space]
 * Is this really happening?! 'Cause there was no kiss in rehearsals.
 * I kinda improvised.
 * Then how come we're not exploding?! We're in space! And why are we always in space when we're gonna kiss? Also--
 * Come on. Hurry up. Everyone's looking. Three, two, one...

Dressing Room

 * Come on. I'm sure it wasn't that bad.
 * Not that bad?! If I did that in a cage fight, I'd be disqualified! [sobs on the floor again] This can't be happening!
 * Hey, guys. Don't panic. We don't know how bad it is yet. Come on. Tell me how it looks.
 * Uhh...it's a nice scar. Gives you character, like a.. beautiful warlord or an adorable Frankenstein, or something.
 * Wait, I've got a scar?!
 * No, don't worry. It's not a scar, it's more of a crack!
 * What?! How bad is it?!
 * Oh, no, it's cute! It's like there was a teeny-weeny really pretty earthquake in your face.
 * What was that?
 * Nothing!
 * Ohh, what have I done?!
 * What are you doing?
 * Hurting your head made his heart hurt, so he's hurting his head with your hand to heal his heart.
 * Look, if you really want to do something, just help me fix this.
 * Hmm. Well, maybe if we put the accent on your good eye and integrate the area of discontent into the piece as a whole, no one will notice. Okay, pass me the rouge. Okay, pass me the mascara. Forget it, pass me the paint roller.
 * Guys. This isn't going to work. [softly] I'm going to have to tell my dad.

Street

 * Hey, so, um, you know when you were looking at your eye and there was that.. mm.. what was that?
 * Don't know what you mean.
 * You know, there was that..
 * I have no idea what you're talking about.
 * You know. The..
 * I really don't know--
 * WHAT'S IN THE SHELL, WOMAN?!
 * OK. It's the... It's the real me.
 * Get outta here! Can I see?
 * No. No one can see. My dad would go nuts.
 * Don't worry, young lady. I am the nutcracker!  Oh, that's funny. 'Cause I cracked your shell, and... uh.

The Fitzgerald House

 * [Gumball and Penny both flap their tongues repeatedly]
 * Okay, I think you've done enough argument warm up. Are you ready to tell her dad now?
 * [Gumball shoots his tongue to the newspaper Darwin was reading]
 * Yeah, I guess it's time. [Gumball breathes in deeply] No, still terrified.
 * [Gumball and Penny start flapping their tongues again]
 * [Mr. Fitzgerald opens the door]
 * Hey! What's going on here?
 * [Penny gasps and moves]
 * Penny! Where were you? We were worried sick!
 * Mr. Fitzgerald! Can I call you Rob?
 * No.
 * Can I call you Bobby?
 * [Mr. Fitzgerald grunts]
 * Bobert? The Bebop? Burcher? Bobzilla? No, wait! Trebor!
 * [Gumball chuckles]
 * That's Robert backwards.
 * My name is Patrick.
 * Okay, Dad. Before you say anything, don't get mad.
 * [Penny removes hand from eye, revealing the crack]
 * What the?! What happened?
 * [Mr. Fitzgerald steps forward]
 * [to Gumball] Were you involved in this?
 * I wouldn't say involved, more like directly responsi--
 * [Gumball pulls Darwin's tongue]
 * I don't see the problem. I mean what's inside that shell that's soo scary?
 * Something unstable and dangerous, we need to fix this right now!
 * HEY!
 * [Mr. Fitzgerald drags Penny, Gumball and Darwin follow]
 * What if I don't want to be fixed?
 * You don't know what you want Penny. [turns to Gumball and Darwin] AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR MESSING WITH!
 * How would you know?
 * He's right, Dad. Everyone in the family has spent their life hiding from themselves!
 * Penny, you're grounded!
 * Penny: Ugh!
 * [to Gumball] Now listen you. Penny is my daughter AND I DECIDE WHAT'S BEST FOR HER!
 * What? So best is not being herself?
 * [Darwin starts losing balance]
 * [Mr. Fitzgerald drags Gumball and Darwin out, slamming the door]
 * Hey Patrick come on! Pat! Pat-man! Patty-cakes? Let's just go.
 * [Darwin and Gumball leaves the Fitzgerald's house]

The Watterson House

 * [Everyone is eating, except for Gumball and Richard. Anais feeds Nicole her food, Nicole feeds Darwin her food, and Darwin tries to feed Gumball his food. But Gumball does not eat, while Richard gapes at them]
 * Why are we doing this again?
 * Because your father is always jealous of what's on his neighbor's plate.
 * But why do we all have to do it?
 * Because he always cries when he's the first one to finish.
 * Nicole! Operation Greener Grasses failed! The chain is compromised! We are losing calories, I repeat: We are losing calories!
 * What's wrong, Gumball, honey? Don't you like Darwin's dinner?
 * I don't wanna talk about it.
 * [Darwin stops eating]
 * Gumball headbutted Penny and now he's never allowed to see her again.
 * I meant I don't want anybody to talk about it.
 * Ohh, come here. [Hugs Gumball, then takes a little bite out of his food]

Penny's True Form

 * [Gumball walks off to his bedroom, depressed]
 * You okay, honey? You had nothing to eat.
 * Pft, don't worry mom! I'm a big boy, I'll be fine.
 * [Gumball falls into his bed and cries. Then he stops when he hears and sees Penny knocking on the window of his room]
 * Penny?
 * [Gumball opens the window and lets her in]
 * Thanks. Gumball, I came to…have you been crying?
 * No! I just have really sweaty eyes. Wait, that's disgusting [Sighing] Yeah, I was crying.
 * I came to say…I'm moving to another school. Dad thinks it's for the best.
 * WHAT THE WHAT? Excuse my French, Penny, BUT THIS IS TOTAL BAGUETTE! It is not for the best that you're forbidden to be who you really are!
 * : [off-scene] But, there's no other way.
 * [Nicole, Anais, Darwin and Richard are listening to them through the door. Richard's stomach growls]
 * Shh!
 * Shh!
 * Shh!
 * Shh! [Stomach stops growling]
 * [off-scene] What do you want me to do?
 * Be yourself. Come out of your shell.
 * But maybe you wouldn't like the real me.
 * There's no way that could be true. Whatever is inside, we can deal with it together.
 * Together?
 * Together.
 * You're right. You're right! I'm gonna do it!
 * That's it. Break free, Penny!
 * Okay. Here we go! [begins to glow] I'm gonna be…MYSELF!
 * [Penny breaks free from her shell and reveals her true form to Gumball]
 * What the what? Eh, you look…you look--
 * What, do I look bad?
 * [She shape-shifts into a gremlin]
 * No! You look uh--
 * I look disgusting, don't I?
 * No! Penny, I think you look--
 * Don't look at me! I'm A MONSTER!
 * [Penny shape-shifts, breaks through the wall of Gumball's room and flies away]
 * No, Penny, wait! You look…extraordinary.
 * Nooo! It's a tragic misunderstanding that could have been easily avoided if he just finished his sentence in time!
 * [Gumball goes down the ladder, after Penny]
 * [The rest of the Wattersons go inside Gumball's room]
 * Penny, please wait!
 * Gumball!

Chasing after Penny

 * [Penny shape-shifts into a jackalope. Gumball continues running after her]
 * Penny! Let me finish…please stop running! My sweat marks are reaching my pants!
 *      [Penny stops and looks back]
 *      [Penny stops and looks back]


 * Please, please…


 * [Gumball continues, huffing and puffing]
 * [high-pitched voice] Oh, Gumball, stop trying! You've said enough. How can [Transforms into a gigantic demon form] anyone LOVE THIS? [Smashes the pavement]
 * [Penny runs, and the Wilsons' car (with Jackie and Harold Wilson inside) almost runs over her. It screeches to a halt]
 * Aah! Harold, do something!
 * Don't worry, honey, I'll deal with this. [Opens the car door and runs away]
 * [Sighs, then dials number on phone] Hello, is that pest control? Yeah, I need help! What does it look like? Kinda like an ugly cow on steroids but…uglier.
 * [Penny runs away]
 * Penny, come back!
 * I'm disgusting! I'm a disgusting pig! [Shape-shifts into a pig]
 * [Gumball and Penny encounter Patrick in his car. It screeches to a halt]
 * What the…you came out of your shell.
 * [Laughs nervously] I know, she looks fantastic, right?
 * What have you done? You've turned her into a freak!
 * A freak…ishly beautiful young lady. [Laughs nervously]
 * She looks like a pig-
 * -ture of beauty. Ha ha, absolutely!
 * You turned my daughter into a monster!
 * -truck! Of prettiness?
 * [Penny shrieks as she transforms into a dragon]
 * [deep voice] Gumball! Please tell my father that the monster is going to live in the forest, with all the other beasts! [Flies away]
 * [Gumball turns to Patrick, an angry expression on his face]
 * What?
 * [imitates Patrick] Ohh! I wonder why my daughter is upset after I called her a freaky pig monster! [Hops on Patrick's car's hood] WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, I'M GONNA HAVE TO ASK YOU TO SHUT UP! Think about what you've done. Do you realize you were wrong? [Patrick nods] Good! But don't beat yourself up about it, parenting is hard! Now pop the hood.
 * [Patrick pops the hood of his car, launching Gumball up into the sky, and onto Penny]
 * I'm not letting you leave!
 * Gumball, no! You'll get hurt!
 * Gumball: Aah! Look out! Aah!
 * [A plane approaches them. They barely dodge it]
 * Penny! Go up, go up, GO UP!
 * You're too heavy!
 * Aww, man!
 * [He crashes into the window of the Banana's house. Penny lands on the roof]

The Bananas' House

 * [Gumball lands in Banana Barbara's room, where she is painting the next scene. Weirded out a bit, he goes to the bathroom (the next scene that Banana Barbara was painting) and makes Banana Bob scream from his bathtub]
 * [Screams like a girl] AAAAH! [Puts on mustache, screaming becomes more deeper] AAAAH!
 * [Gumball then goes to Banana Joe's room where he sees him watching a guy peel an orange. Finally, Gumball crashes out of another window, and grabs Penny's leg as she flies off again]
 * WAIT!
 * Gumball, get off. Let me go!
 * Noo!
 * [They head for the Elmore Expressway]

Pest Control

 * Why do you care? I'm nothing to you now.
 * [A truck comes in their way]
 * Y-you know what? Maybe you're right, you're nothing to me!
 * [The truck comes nearer]
 * You hear? You're nothing!
 * [Hurt by this remark, Penny shape-shifts into a small spirit form. Gumball catches her and ducks under the oncoming truck]
 * I knew it.
 * No, no, no! I just said that so you would shrink.
 * [Penny shape-shifts again and flees. The pest control arrives]
 * Pest control! [Loads a dart gun] Out of the way!
 * [Loads and aims at Penny. Mr. Fitzgerald rams his car into the pest controller's van, making the pest controller miss his shot]
 * Hey, kid! Go get her.
 * [Gumball nods, then goes after her. The pest controller, now out of his van, loads another dart and aims at Penny. The rest of the Wattersons in their car block his sight, and Nicole comes out.
 * Stop! I command you to [Gets shot by a dart] stooooooop. [Becomes limp]
 * Oh, creepers! I am so sorry, madam!
 * How dare you, you shot me! Kids, help me teach this guy a lesson.
 * [Darwin and Anais stretch her arm and leg, and repeatedly slap him with them]
 * [Richard comes out of the car and calls after Gumball]
 * That's it, Gum-Belle! Go save the beast!

A Happy Ending

 * [In the forest, Penny howls]
 * Penny? Penny?
 * [He spots Penny in her wolf form and walks towards her]
 * You know I…I-I was trying to protect you back there.
 * Yes, I know.
 * And you know why?
 * Yes, I know why. But just look at me, what will you think when people laugh at us?
 * No offense, but you kinda looked like a big coconut with holes in it before.
 * But do you really think you could love [Bares teeth and growls] THIS!?
 * That's not what you are, it's just how you feel. And this is how I feel…
 * [Gumball kisses Penny. As they kiss, the space background appears and Penny morphs into all her forms until she is back to her original form. After they kiss, they stare at each other affectionately. Richard (in the background with the rest of the Wattersons and Mr. Fitzgerald, watching them happily) vocalizes the music, heavenly]
 * She was a monster! [Sniffs] But he made her beautiful [Sniffs] with his love [Sniffs] like in their play, but backwards!
 * Yeah, I kinda think we all got that, dad.
