TVTranscript
00:00Now for excuses, Dawson.
00:01Rain's coming, I don't want to be late.
00:04I've got a hot date with a spicy little dish.
00:08Chicken tamales?
00:10It's you and me.
00:13Thanks a lot, guys.
00:15Because y'all wouldn't stop making me laugh during drills,
00:17I'm going to be late for Pepper's birthday party.
00:20Don't blame us, blame New.
00:21Yeah, when his pads squeak, they sound just like it.
00:25Oh, Bella, we are so late.
00:40We're the only people left in the school.
00:42And my party started 45 minutes ago.
00:45If we leave now, we'll be fashionably late,
00:47as opposed to obnoxiously late.
00:51Oh, man, is that what I think it is?
00:54Yep, it's a tornado warning.
00:56Tornado?
00:58You mean a twister?
00:59A cyclone?
01:00Nature's one way toilet bowl that flushes you to your doom?
01:03Relax, New.
01:05It's probably just a test.
01:11This is not a test.
01:13Silverado is on tornado alert.
01:16You know what this means.
01:20Total boredom.
01:22Sorry, folks.
01:23You're stuck inside waiting for a twister
01:24that will probably never materialize.
01:27Looks like I'll be spending the next three hours
01:29playing charades with my cameraman, Chauncey.
01:32Talk about your natural disasters.
01:37Pepper, this is the worst timing.
01:40I spent the entire year planning a beautiful Paris-themed party,
01:46and now I'm stuck here.
01:48This is not how I envisioned my 13th birthday.
01:54You're worried about a birthday party?
01:57We're all gonna die, and I've never been kissed.
02:00Sophie?
02:03Let me think about it.
02:05No.
02:07Well, at least now I don't have to keep up this manly facade.
02:17You won't find me in the bleachers
02:20I've been a girl who's worn a box
02:22Made of spice and sugar
02:24She's really so pretty tough
02:26But not a little bitter
02:28Rihanna's in the crowd, it does
02:30And you get, you get
02:32A game-changer, playmaker
02:34Take the ball, she'll see you later
02:36I'm gonna dream like, team like
02:38Living like one of the boys
02:40She got it going, going
02:42She got it going on
02:44I'm gonna play like Friday night
02:46Kicking like one of the boys
02:48She got it going, going
02:50She got it going on
02:57I do not like this.
02:59Tornadoes are one of my biggest fears.
03:01I blame my step-mom for showing me that horror movie, The Wizard of Oz.
03:05It's way too realistic.
03:08No need to panic.
03:10I'm the 8th grade safety warden.
03:12I took a one-hour trend course, and once,
03:14the airline trusted me to sit in the exit row of a plane.
03:17But you said you threw up in the exit row.
03:19Listen up!
03:21According to safety procedure,
03:23the first thing we need to do is call our parents.
03:25Shh! Would you keep it down?
03:27We're calling our parents.
03:29Then you're following procedure.
03:33I understand, Dad.
03:35You already rented the place, and everyone's there.
03:37Just continue the party without me.
03:41You guys,
03:43I feel horrible.
03:45If I hadn't been late,
03:47Pepper would already be at her fancy party.
03:49Maybe if we work together, we can make it up to her.
03:51Look at Pepper.
03:53She's following her own party on ClickPick.
03:57Oh, the twinkle lights.
04:01And Dad blowing out the candles for me.
04:03At least he didn't open my presents.
04:07Come on, Dad!
04:11All right.
04:13Here's the plan.
04:15We'll throw Pepper a surprise party in the Bulldog's Gym.
04:17Sophie, you can make the cake.
04:19Um, actually, that's
04:21my area of expertise.
04:23Great. You can work together.
04:25I am not one of your team players.
04:27Oh, here. Can you distract Pepper?
04:29Pepper? I barely said three words to her.
04:31That's the spirit!
04:33Okay. I'll deal with the decorations
04:35and with...
04:39Chicken Little over there.
04:43Okay. Everyone knows the plan.
04:45Set an alarm.
04:47We'll meet in the gym at 6.30.
04:49Whatever you do, don't let Pepper find out.
04:51Find out about what?
04:53Sawyer?
04:55That you're the new deputy safety warden.
04:57You get to wear this cool vest.
05:01I'm not wearing this.
05:03Orange is the new bleh.
05:07Wait! The vest!
05:09You're violating procedure!
05:13Ah!
05:17Fauci!
05:19Let's suit up.
05:21It's storm-chasing time.
05:25What is dangerous
05:27out there?
05:29A.V. Club is
05:31the most dangerous club in school, kid.
05:33I've got a job to do.
05:37I do need those two extra credit points.
05:39Grab your helmet.
05:41Your bicycle just became our news van.
05:45Well, looks like we checked
05:47everything off the safety list.
05:49Wow. I thought that would take a lot longer.
05:51Really?
05:53Because it felt like forever.
05:55Are we done yet?
05:57Not yet.
05:59Fortunately, we still have to check the
06:01structural integrity of the
06:03integral structures.
06:05Which are this way.
06:07I mean...
06:09This way.
06:11In the boys' locker room?
06:13Now it gets interesting.
06:15Well, I guess. In there.
06:27All right. Here's the plan.
06:29We're making my abuela's
06:31tres leches con caramelo cake.
06:33It's perfect every time.
06:35Starting with exactly
06:37one teaspoon of salt.
06:45Okay. Uh, better plan.
06:47We make my
06:49chocolate surprise supreme cake.
06:51The surprise is it never comes out
06:53the same. Because I make it up as I
06:55go along.
07:07Sounds like a recipe
07:09for disaster.
07:11Look, Pepper's my best friend,
07:13so I'm going to make her cake.
07:15If you want to help, you can be
07:17my assistant. Assistant?
07:19Detroit doesn't assist,
07:21okay? He creates.
07:23With my dad gone and my mom working all the time,
07:25I taught myself to cook
07:27using whatever's in the fridge.
07:29Well, in my house, we follow
07:31abuela's recipes.
07:33Once, I didn't,
07:35and abuela cursed me.
07:37For the next three days, I had nightmares
07:39a chupacabra was chasing me.
07:41Chupacabra?
07:43Hey, that's my favorite
07:45combo meal and taco to go.
07:47No.
07:49It's a spiny, goat-sucking
07:51monster. Oh.
07:53Yeah, that makes
07:55more sense.
07:57Can you just pass me an egg
07:59so we can get started?
08:01You know what? I'll do you one better.
08:03Check it.
08:09That is what I
08:11call the Troy technique.
08:13Crack the eggs however you want.
08:15Just make sure you follow
08:17the recipe. If you don't,
08:19I'll curse you, and you'll have nightmares about
08:21the chupacabra, too.
08:25This is...
08:27This is...
08:29This is...
08:31Not as interesting as I thought it would be.
08:33What?
08:35No, it's real interesting.
08:37Look at all the cool stuff we got in here.
08:39Never mind.
08:43I'm sorry. I can't stay here.
08:45Wait. Uh, the safety kit.
08:47That's something we should
08:49thoroughly and slowly check.
08:55Okay.
08:57Big bandages.
08:59Check. Medium
09:01bandages. Check.
09:03Little tiny circle bandages.
09:05Check.
09:07Board. Check. Over this. Check.
09:09Leaving. Check.
09:11Wait.
09:13Ouch!
09:17What happened?
09:19I shut the lid on my hand.
09:21You better wrap it.
09:24Injured
09:26by the safety kit. Painful
09:28and ironic. Actually,
09:30little known fact, safety kits
09:32are the number one cause of injuries
09:34among safety professionals.
09:36Number two is wrapping gauze
09:38too tightly. You better start over.
09:44I'm sure the theater department won't mind
09:46us borrowing these decorations, right?
09:48Who cares?
09:50You would not believe what I'm reading
09:52on TornadoAfredo.com.
09:54You need to relax.
09:56Everything's going to be fine.
09:58I just wish
10:00I was at home with my lucky
10:02rabbit's foot. I keep it
10:04in my lucky panic room.
10:06Well, I have
10:08something that might help.
10:10My dad gave me this locket,
10:12and it makes me feel safe,
10:14just like he did.
10:16Right now, I think you need it
10:18more than I do.
10:20Oh, it's a little girly.
10:22I'll keep an eye on it
10:24for you.
10:26Oh,
10:28cute lights. We can use these to make it
10:30look more like Paris. All we need
10:32to do is hang them.
10:34Up there?
10:36Are you crazy?
10:38Good thing
10:40I rocked this rope in gym class.
10:42Oh, not me.
10:44I also have a fear of heights.
10:46Whenever I'm supposed to climb this, I
10:48fake a stomachache, lick my hands,
10:50and tell the teacher I have a
10:52sweaty palm condition.
10:54Works every time. Wanna feel?
10:56I'll pass.
11:02All right. Let's see how this tastes.
11:08What did you do to my abuela's cake?
11:10Well, it needed a pop of
11:12flavor, so I improvised and added
11:14whatever this is.
11:16It's not the same.
11:18You ruined it.
11:20What? Just taste it again, all right?
11:22It's delicious.
11:30You wanna improvise?
11:32How's this?
11:36Hey, you almost
11:38hit the fade.
11:40Let a man get a hair net first.
11:46Oh!
11:48I call this
11:50the Sophie technique.
12:08Look what you did!
12:10What you did!
12:12What you did!
12:16What you did!
12:18What are you doing?
12:20Texting my abuela.
12:22Can't remember if her curse starts
12:24with I invoke or I summon.
12:28Yeah, like I believe in
12:30that chupacabra nonsense.
12:32Okay, but seriously,
12:34don't do that.
12:36We'll do it your way.
12:40A severe tornado
12:42warning is in effect for our area.
12:44I could watch
12:46these colorful blobs all night.
12:50Or at least for the next 38 minutes.
12:54Sawyer, there's something weird,
12:56and it's not just your accent.
13:00First you wanted to pair up with me,
13:02then you wanted to take those long,
13:04slow walks in the hallways,
13:06and now you just wanna sit here together
13:08watching boring weather radar.
13:10It's almost as if...
13:12Oh!
13:14I think I know
13:16what's going on here.
13:18You do? But I was so careful
13:20not to let you find out.
13:22You have a crush on me.
13:24I was only trying to...
13:26Whoa, whoa, whoa.
13:28Did you say crush? That's crazy.
13:30I do not have a crush on you.
13:32Really?
13:34I'm sorry.
13:36I didn't mean to.
13:38Wow, that's embarrassing.
13:40Could this birthday get any worse?
13:42I gotta find Bella.
13:44Wait, Pepper!
13:46Please, Sawyer.
13:48I feel dumb enough as it is.
13:50Don't go! Why not?
13:52Because...
13:54I do have a...
13:56crush on you.
14:00Happy birthday?
14:02Happy birthday!
14:10Storm Chaser Ace McBuffles
14:12here on the scene!
14:14We've paralleled Earth to the heart
14:16of the action.
14:20Wow, this storm's getting closer
14:22than my sister and her pet ferret.
14:24They groom each other.
14:26It's creepy.
14:28Please!
14:30Give me the hole where it's safe!
14:32No!
14:34It's perfectly safe out here!
14:36Hey, look! There's a bird's flight!
14:38That's not a bird!
14:40It's a kite!
14:46Okay.
14:48That did not sound good.
14:50What?
14:58Bella, are you okay?
15:00I know I said these tornado warnings never turn into anything,
15:02but that felt like something!
15:06Just calm down!
15:08I can't!
15:10My hair is caught and stuck!
15:14No, you have to get me down!
15:16I'm coming, Bella!
15:18Just as soon as I get over
15:20my crippling fear of heights!
15:26I'm probably not coming, Bella!
15:38It's no use calling for help, Bella.
15:40Cell service is down.
15:42Please, just climb up
15:44and help me!
15:46Oh, stomachache!
15:48Sweaty palms!
15:52Newt, stop shaking!
15:54Okay!
15:56I can do this!
15:58I can do this!
16:08I can't believe it!
16:10Why not? Lights go off in storms all the time.
16:12No, that you have a crush on me!
16:16You're still thinking about that, huh?
16:18I mean, it's just so unexpected.
16:20Yeah, I know.
16:22Did not think I was going to say that.
16:24Not at all.
16:26Can you hand me that flashlight?
16:30Oh, sounds like it's getting worse out there.
16:32We should stay here.
16:34It's nice and safe.
16:38Look, Sawyer, I'm super flattered,
16:40and I know this whole storm
16:42feels like a romantic moment,
16:44and I don't want to hurt your feelings,
16:46but the truth is,
16:48I'm just not into guys like you.
16:50What do you mean, guys like me?
16:52No offense, but we have, like,
16:54nothing in common.
16:56You're a country boy,
16:58and I'm a city girl.
17:00At least, I will be one day.
17:02I want to see the whole world when I grow up.
17:04Well, I do, too.
17:06I'm going to backpack through Argentina and then Brazil.
17:08Really?
17:10I always thought you were one of those farm boys
17:12who never wanted to set foot outside of Texas.
17:14Well, I caught the travel bug last summer
17:16when my family took a trip to Paris.
17:18You've actually
17:20been to Paris?
17:22Yeah, we went to buy some French dairy cows.
17:24That's where we got Bonaparte
17:26and Camus.
17:28Their milk has a certain
17:30je ne sais quoi.
17:32I've always wanted to see the city of lights.
17:34Ah,
17:36la ville lumière.
17:38I wonder why they call it that.
17:40At night, there were hundreds of streetlamps
17:42glowing gold by the water.
17:44I've never seen anything like it.
17:46Sawyer Huggins,
17:48you were full of surprises.
17:50Yeah, so was Coach's desk.
17:52I just found a buffalo wing down here.
18:00Well, the power's out.
18:04So is the oven.
18:06We can't serve cake soup.
18:08Relax, okay?
18:10We can still make pepper a cake.
18:12My way.
18:14Oh, like a contestant
18:16in America's Worst Chef?
18:18I have a little faith.
18:20All right.
18:22We've got, um,
18:24some strawberry jelly,
18:26cookies,
18:28and...
18:32100 little ice cream cups.
18:34100 little ice cream cups?
18:38I'm thinking
18:40ice cream surprise
18:42supreme cake.
18:44That's actually a pretty good idea.
18:46Yeah.
18:48And for the frosting, we can use...
18:50Cream cheese.
18:52Now you're improvising.
18:56I got it, man.
18:58This is kind of genius.
19:00You know it, and you are free
19:02to beat it, okay?
19:04I'm already sorry I said it, okay?
19:22You're doing great, Newt.
19:24Just a little easier.
19:26I can't believe I'm actually doing this.
19:28I'll be there soon, Bella.
19:32Ahh!
19:34It's just the lights.
19:36Now you can see again.
19:38That's the problem.
19:40I can't see my final resting place.
19:42Ahh!
19:48Hang on, Bella.
19:50I'm coming for you.
19:56Newt!
19:58You did it!
20:00I did it!
20:02I did it!
20:04I'm way up here,
20:06and I'm not even scared.
20:08I conquered my fear.
20:10This feels incredible.
20:12This feels amazing.
20:14Like something we could talk about
20:16when we're back on the ground.
20:18Right. Sorry, Bella.
20:20No way.
20:22You like fishing?
20:24Yeah. You know what my favorite part is?
20:26Frying and eating them?
20:28I'm letting them go so they can swim back to their families.
20:30Oh, that's fun, too.
20:34Hey, have you ever been fishing at night?
20:36It's amazing. You can see all the stars.
20:38Oh, I love stargazing.
20:40You should come out to my farm sometime.
20:42At night, you can see the whole Milky Way
20:44and two snooty French cows.
20:46Man, they have an attitude.
20:52Whoa.
20:54Look. I just realized the lights are back on.
20:56Huh. Didn't even notice.
20:58Looks like the worst part of the storm's over.
21:00Well, that was surprisingly...
21:02Fun, right?
21:04Talking with you turned out to be
21:06the best part of my worst birthday.
21:08Well, I'll take that as a compliment.
21:12Sawyer, that thing I said earlier
21:14about you not being my type...
21:16Oh, hang on one sec.
21:18Oh, we should get back to the others.
21:20I'm sorry. What were you saying?
21:22Never mind.
21:24We should go.
21:30Ace McFumbles here.
21:32It seems like the storm has finally
21:34started to calm down,
21:36and we have made it through unscathed.
21:40Unscathed?
21:42Look at me.
21:44I am 100% scathed.
21:46And where's my bike?
21:48Where's my bike?
21:52It's right here.
21:54There's a little bit more
21:56over there.
21:58And, uh,
22:00the rest of it's up in that tree.
22:06Where is everyone?
22:08Surprise!
22:10Wow. Look at all of this.
22:12When did you...
22:14How did you...
22:16The lights are amazing.
22:18Yeah. Hanging them
22:20during the tornado warning wasn't the smartest
22:22thing to do. I kind of got
22:24stuck up there. Oh, my gosh,
22:26Bella. Lucky for me,
22:28I had the bravest storm buddy a girl could
22:30ask for. Oh, it was nothing.
22:32I just free climbed a rope and,
22:34you know, saved her.
22:38Well done, safety warden.
22:40You totally had me going.
22:42I actually believed you had a crush on me,
22:44but you're just trying to distract
22:46me the whole time.
22:48Yeah, that's right. Just
22:50fooling the whole time for the
22:52surprise and all.
22:56Happy birthday!
23:06Okay, guys.
23:08Get ready for culinary
23:10greatness. This is just
23:12a little something that Sophie and I whipped up
23:14together. We improvised.
23:20What's in this?
23:22The frosting tastes like chives.
23:24And garlic.
23:26Wow.
23:28I gotta get this recipe.
23:32Did you not look at the label
23:34on the cream cheese?
23:36It was hard to see, Sophie.
23:38The lights were out.
23:40You've ruined another cake.
23:48You put a curse on me, didn't you?
23:52Hey, the tornado
23:54warning's been lifted.
24:00Pepper, I'm sorry you got trapped

24:48should not go out during a

25:02Don't storm
