Transcript

{Open: the Food Court. Jerry and Casey are there, eating.}

JERRY: After a month-long hiatus, we're back.

CASEY: Yeah, and our returning episode was HORRIBLE.

JERRY: Well, I'm sure this episode will more than make up for that.

{Casey tosses a bowling ball at Jerry's head. Jerry falls out of his seat.}

CASEY: We're already off to a good start!

{Cue theme song.}

{Cut: SkullB's Apartment. SkullB, Jerry and Casey are on the couch.}

JERRY: Welp, it's the beginning of summer.

CASEY: Yep.

SKULLB: Sure is.

JERRY: So, what do we have planned this year?

SKULLB: The same as last year? By that, I mean nothing?

JERRY: I'll tell you what we have planned!

CASEY: Well cut to the chase, man!

JERRY: Follow me...

{Cut: Outside the Apartment. Jerry is standing in front of a large van.}

SKULLB: A... van?

JERRY: That's right! This "Luuurve Van" will be our chariot on our summer road trip!

CASEY: A road trip? Awesome!

SKULLB: With a capital "X"!

JERRY: So, yeah... non sequiturs aside, let's get going!

CASEY: Waitwaitwait hold up. Who's going to be watching our house?

JERRY: Tom will.

{Pan over to show Tom standing right next to SkullB.}

TOM: Hey.

SKULLB: Gyaaaah! You could have given me a heart attack!

TOM: You're a machine! YOU HAVE NO HEART.

SKULLB: ... Ouch.

TOM: So yeah, whilst you all are gone, I'll be a-guarding the homestead--just like you said!

JERRY: Ah, good old reliable Tom.

{SkullB and Jerry get in the van.}

CASEY: So help me GOD if you touch any of my things while I'm gone, Tom. So HELP me GOD.

{Casey gets in the van.}

TOM: Have a good time, everyone!

{The van speeds off. Tom scans the area, and runs inside.}

{Cut: the van. Casey is driving.}

JERRY: Casey, are you SURE you should be driving?

CASEY: Yeah, I'm positive! I have my license, you know!

JERRY: But you're also playing a Gameboy.

CASEY: And?

SKULLB: Jerry, I don't feel safe!

JERRY: There, there... it's gonna be okay.

{Suddenly, the van swerves.}

CASEY: Get out of the way, {censored for the weak-hearted}!

JERRY: Maybe I should drive.

CASEY: Like hell you will!

{Cut: Casey's Apartment. Tom is inside.}

TOM: Yeeeees.

{Tom grabs a book from on the table.}

TOM: Hm... what's this? A diary, perhaps?

{Tom opens it.}

TOM: Oh, it's just one of those sophisticated coffee-table art books that's just pornography. Oh well, still pretty sweet.

{Cut: the van. Jerry is now driving.}

SKULLB: So, Captain Stubing, where we headed?

JERRY: Oh, just the greatest place ever...

SKULLB: The MOON? Oh, Jerry, you shouldn't have!

JERRY: And I didn't! We're headed to New York City!

SKULLB: Oh. You disappoint me.

JERRY: Shut up. This is the first proper vacation we've had since we moved in with each other.

SKULLB: So you're calling that one time we went to the nice Burger King an improper vacation?

JERRY: ... How stupid did you get during the hiatus?

SKULLB: A little bit.

JERRY: So... not much to say right now. Being on the road.

CASEY: Hey, who wants to play a game?

SKULLB: I'm game!

{Pause}

SKULLB: Oh my God that was completely by accident!

CASEY: Anyway, this is called "I Spy"! I spy, with my little eye... something blue!

SKULLB: Oh, oh! Is it me?

CASEY: Yeah! How'd you know?

JERRY: My GOD I'm going to hate this trip.

{Cut: SkullB's Apartment. Tom is sitting on the couch.}

TOM: Wow. I've got all of Jerry's place to myself. This'll be sweet.

{Tom walks over to Jerry's room and jumps on the bed.}

TOM: Wow. Plushy!

{Tom starts to fall asleep on the bed. Meanwhile, the stove starts to light up. Foreshadowing?}

{Cut: the van. Casey and SkullB are asleep in the back.}

JERRY: Hey, guys! We're here!

SKULLB: Really?

CASEY: Really really?

JERRY: Yep! Welcome to our hotel!

{The trio stands before the Waldorf-Astoria hotel.}

JERRY: The luxurious Waldorf-Astoria hotel!

CASEY: I heard it has a hotel inside the hotel!

SKULLB: Swanky! How'd you get the money to go here?

JERRY: Royalties from the show. Turns out working for the one good show on this channel pays a pretty penny.

SKULLB: Viva Las Vegas!

JERRY: ... You are aware of where we are, right?

{Cut: SkullB's Apartment.}

TOM: Good thing I remembered that the stove was on! I bet something horrible would have happened had I not. Now, I'm gonna make something to eat--I'm starving!

{Cut: an outside view of SkullB's Apartment. Suddenly, an explosion destroys the apartment.}

TOM: {cough} Why didn't I see that coming?

{Cut: Black Screen of Continuity. The following lines are shown in white text as they are said.}
