Invasion
of the Idiot Dog Brain
The
Massive, the Almighty Tallest's ship, hovers above the planet along with some
other ships from the Irken fleet. On the main deck, a transmission from Zim
plays on a large monitor.
Zim:
There
were some glitches in the security system, but thanks to my masterful repair
skills, they've all been eradicated.
A
small child walks behind Zim on the transmission.
Zim:
The
fortress is now impenetrable, absolutely-
Purple:
Um, who's that little person behind you?
Zim:
What the-!?!
Zim
turns around. The child's mother walks up.
Mother:
There you are! What did I tell you about wandering off like that? Come on!
Small
child:
I missed you, mommy!
The
mother and her child walk away.
Purple:
I'm
glad it had a happy ending after all.
Red:
Me
too.
Zim:
Gaaah,
I'll call you back later!
Zim
presses a button and his picture of the green monkey lowers down over the
transmission screen Zim was using to contact the Tallest. Zim walks over to
where GIR sits on the floor, in disguise, watching a commercial for the Krazy
Taco fast food restaurant.
Zim:
GIR,
we're going down into the main system core. This much trouble with the
security can only mean a defective artificial intelligence brain. I'll have to
replace it.
GIR:
Tacos!
Zim:
Just
come on.
GIR
jumps into the air, removing his disguise mid-air. He follows Zim into the
kitchen. Down bellow in the main system core, Zim and GIR emerge out of an
elevator. They stand on a hover platform which lowers them to the next level.
They walk over to a beam of energy coming out of two tubes and going through a
sphere.
Zim:
Okay,
your part is simple, GIR. You just monitor the download conduit while I
replace the old AI brain with this new one.
A
mechanical arm extends from Zim's Irken utility pack with the replacement AI
brain attached to it. Zim grabs the brain from the mechanical arm, which retracts
back into his utility pack.
GIR:
Taco taco taco!
Zim:
All you have to do is watch the data beam for any fluctuations until the
download of the new program is complete.
GIR
wiggles his tongue around. Zim sighs.
Zim:
Pretend
it's a taco!
GIR:
Yes sir!
GIR's
eyes, shoulder joints, and chest plate turn red. He salutes Zim and looks at
the data beam.
Zim:
If
there are any changes in the data... (sigh) taco beam, just let me know.
Zim
jumps into a floorless, anti-gravity area of the main system core and floats
over to a small station where the AI brain is. GIR continues watching the data
beam. All the red on him turns back to its normal color. His antennae retracts
and the top of his head opens up. He sticks an arm inside and pulls out a squeaky
toy moose. His head closes back up and his antennae reemerges. He squeezes the
moose toy several times and then giggles. Zim removes the AI brain and a
control panel displays a countdown starting with 10. GIR continues squeezing
the moose toy, but it slides out of his hand and over the data beam. Zim holds
the new AI brain over his head.
Zim:
Alright, GIR! I'm about to install the new brain!
GIR
leans over, trying to grab the moose toy, his head inside the data beam. Zim
sticks the new AI brain in the slot where the old one was and presses a few
buttons as the countdown reaches 0. Beams of light shoot from the AI brain and
electricity is charged from tubes throughout the main system core. The
electricity reaches GIR's head at the data beam as he tries to grab the toy
moose and the beams break. Zim screams as electricity shoots from the AI
brain. Zim jumps as the AI brain explodes. Zim lands on the platform near GIR
who stands motionless. GIR's eyes are black and his shoulder joints, antennae
tip and chest plate are gray.
Zim:
GIR!
What did you do? Sleeping!?! All you had to do was just... GIR?
Zim
pokes GIR in the back of the head. GIR falls over.
Zim:
Broken. Can you hear me? Oh, I'll have to go upstairs and get another brain
for the house and then I'll fix you.
Zim
picks GIR up and carries him over to the hover platform. It lifts them up to
the next level and they approach the elevator.
Zim:
Elevator, take me to the storage level.
The
computer makes a whirring noise.
Zim:
Elevator, I said-
GIR's
voice:
Saaaay pleeeease!
Zim:
GIR,
quit messing around. We have to get the house's computer back online before-
GIR's
voice: Where's
my moose?
Zim:
Wait
a minute, you're in the house's computer?
GIR's
voice:
Uh huh.
Zim:
You're the new brain?
GIR's
voice: I
guess so.
Zim:
GIR! Get out of there right now and back into your own body!
Zim
throws GIR's broken body to the floor.
GIR's
voice: Okay,
sheesh, lemme see, hmmm...
GIR
grunts a couple of times.
GIR's
voice:
I can't.
Zim:
Hmmm. The data conduit is damaged. You're trapped in there until we can repair
it.
GIR's
voice:
Ooooh!
GIR
controls a robotic arm and makes it squeeze his toy moose as GIR's voice
giggles.
Zim:
GIR!
We need to concentrate here! As we speak our defenses-
GIR's
voice: Boring!
The
robotic arm drops the moose toy.
GIR's
voice: Oooooh!
The
robotic arm goes over to Zim and grabs him, lifting him off the ground. Zim
groans as the robotic arm squeezes him several times.
Zim:
GIR,
what are you doing!?! Put me down, GIR! Wah, stop! Oh, ow, my organ!
GIR
giggles. Zim grunts as he forces his way out of the claw's grip. He backs up
towards the elevator, but more and more robotic arms emerge. Zim pries the
elevator open and squeezes his way in. The door clamps back shut behind him.
Inside the elevator, GIR's voice is heard singing along to elevator music. Zim
presses up against the wall, breathing heavily.
Zim:
Now
take me to the equipment room, GIR! Equipment room! Now, GIR!
GIR's
voice:
Do a little dance!
Zim:
No,
GIR! No dance! Just obey me!
GIR's
voice:
Daaance!
A
compartment on the ceiling of the elevator opens revealing a speaker playing
the elevator music. GIR goes back to singing along with the elevator music.
Zim:
No!
Zim
puts his hands to where his ears would be.
Zim:
GIR!
Zim
disdainfully starts dancing and sings along with GIR's voice.
GIR's
voice: Yay!
Now we go up!
Zim
screams as he is pushed up against the floor as the elevator rises at high
speeds. Zim is launched out of the toilet in his kitchen and into the ceiling.
He falls back down and hits his head on the toilet.
Zim:
GIR,
you sent the elevator up too far! I'm up in the house, I needed to go to the
eqipment room!
GIR's
voice:
Wooah, what's this do!?!
Out
of the wall, a blender emerges attached to a robotic arm. The blender turns
on. The oven bounces around, opening and closing.
GIR's
voice:
I'm gonna make toast!
Out
of the floor, a toaster attached to a mechanical arm lifts up and aims at Zim.
It launches two pieces of toast at him, which bounce off his face.
Zim:
GIR!
I am ordering you to take me to the equipment room!
GIR
makes all the appliances in the kitchen open and close.
GIR's
voice:
Aw, don't be sad, master. I know what'll make you feel better.
Zim:
It
would make me feel better to have this house back to normal! And to have you
listen to me for once!
GIR's
voice:
Uh huh... But how about some of this?
A
bunch of hovering monitor screen playing old cartoons and other stuff swarm
Zim.
Zim:
He's got to run himself out eventually. I'll just wait. I can out last him.
The
words 'ONE YEAR LATER' appear. Zim stands in the living room with all of the
hovering monitor screens around him along with the mechanical arms. In the
kitchen, the appliances are still opening and closing. Zim's eye twitches. Zim
screams.
Zim:
The madness! The madness! GIR, let me down bellow so that I can make
everything normal again!
One
hovering monitor screen shows a commercial for the Krazy Taco fast food
restaurant, showing a man dressed in a taco suit.
GIR's
voice: Tacos!
Krazy
Taco man:
So take it from me, the Krazy Taco! You won't find a crazier taco then the
ones you'll find at the Krazy Taco! Remember, our Drive-Thru's open the whole
niiight! Sweet jumpin' chili bean I'm crazy!
The
hovering monitors hover away, including one that plays the Scary Monkey Show
(with the Scary Monkey picking its nose).
GIR's
voice: Must
obey the taco man!
The
house starts shaking.
Zim:
What's happening!?! What is this!?!
GIR's
voice: Taaaacooos!
Zim
walks over to the front window and sees mechanical tentacles burst out of the
lawn. The satellite on the top of the house folds up and retracts. The house
moves back and forth, pulling on the mechanical tentacles attached to the
neighboring houses. The mechanical tentacles retract from a neighbor's room
where a neighbor sits on a chair watching TV who was previously seen in the
first episode. The house spreads apart into two sections and then lists up,
revealing robotic legs. The house now has a vague dog shape as it breaks away
from some mechanical tentacles linking it to the ground. The house walks into
the center of the street and then shakes off mud. The mud completely covers
some pedestrians, including a man walking the spooky Chihuahua. Zim screams
and falls backwards. GIR cheers as he makes the house run along the street. It
knocks a tree down as it runs by. Zim screams and then crawls back to the
window.
Zim
(said in accent): Great
jumpin' chili bean!
GIR's
voice:
I'm gonna get me some of these tacos!
Zim:
GIR,
you have to go back! The base is exposed! You'll blow our cover! Turn back
while we're still unnoticed!
Zim
screams as he rolls backwards into the kitchen. He gets up and goes to a
window in the kitchen. He sees the GIR house jump through a house that is for
sale (which is rumored to be Jhonen Vasquez's house). Cut to a man in a telephone booth talking to someone about his new car
which is parked right outside the booth.
Man:
Yeah,
I just got it and man do I love it! I'm gonna drive all night and then I'm
gonna keep on driving until it's night some more! Oh yeah!
GIR's
squeals can be heard. Suddenly, the foot of the GIR house crashes down on the
new car, destroying it. The man in the phone booth keeps his cool and dials
another number.
Man:
Police!
I'd like to report a... giant house that flew out of the sky and destroyed my
car! Okay, thank you!
The
man hangs up, smiling. He stands there for a moment, then bursts out screaming
and flails his arms wildly. A large black cop and a skinny lobotomized cop
drive in a cop car when they get a report on the radio.
Police
radio: Be
on the look out for a giant mobile home rampaging through the downtown area.
Large
cop: Can
mobile homes rampage?
Lobotomized
cops:
Must be one of them new ones!
As
the cop car drives off, behind them the GIR house runs by followed by a trail
of cops.
Zim:
I don't think you understand how serious this is! Tacos are not worth ruining
the mission. I am your master, and you will obey me! Obey me!
Zim
gets down on his knees.
Zim:
Pleeease?
The
GIR house stops.
GIR's
voice: Maybe
you're right. Maybe I'll get a giant burrito too.
The
GIR house starts running again. A gas truck swerves out of the way but the GIR
house leaps on top of it, crushing it and letting gasoline spill into the
streets. The GIR house stands on its hind legs and waves its fore legs in the
air.
GIR's
voice: BUUUURRRRIIIITTOOO!
The
GIR house leaps away, causing a lamp to fall from a lamp post in the street.
It hits the ground and starts a fire on the gasoline, creating a large
explosion as the cops pull up to it. Officer Pambrey emerges from
one of the cop cars and the flames reflect from his glasses. He removes his
glasses.
Officer Pambrey:
Get him!
Cut
to the Krazy Taco fast food restaurant. In the kitchen of the restaurant, an
employee pulls a hand full of fries out of a bin of fries he just dipped in
hot grease. He sticks the hand full of fries into his mouth, which heats up
his face. An employee tosses a freshly made taco into a laundry shoot type
fixture. An employee at the counter puts the taco on a tray and serves it to a
customer. the customer sniffs it and groans. Another employee takes orders
from the drive through with a pair of headphones. Zim can be heard screaming
at GIR in the background.
Employee:
Thanks
for coming to Krazy Taco, may I take your order please? Sir, that's two large
tacos, a burrito and a medium GIR, take us back to the base right now, do you
want a drink with that?
Zim:
-master! GIR! Take us back! GIR!
Zim
continues yelling orders as the GIR house leans its head towards the speaker.
GIR's
voice:
What kinda drinks ya got?
Employee:
We got new poop, classic poop, diet poop, cherry poop and salty lemonade.
GIR's
voice:
Gimme a large classic poop.
Zim
groans as he hears sirens. He peers out of the window and sees cop cars approaching.
Employee:
Pick
up your order at the first window.
The
first window has a taco shell covering over it. The GIR house crouches down to
fit under it and crawls along, but it ends up breaking the shell. The employee
holds their order in a bag outside the window and into the window of the GIR
house.
Employee:
Here you go, sir.
GIR's
voice:
I love the little tacos. I love them good.
Zim,
who has been out of disguise the whole time, grabs the bag containing GIR's
order.
Employee:
Have
a nice day.
Zim
pulls out a wad of cash.
Zim:
Shut
your noise tube, taco human!
He
throws the cash in the employee's face, but the employee doesn't react at all.
Zim:
GIR.
GIR's
voice:
Yes master?
Zim:
GIR,
I have your tacos!
GIR's
voice: Gimme!
The
employee puts their soda on the window ledge.
Zim:
No,
GIR.
The
employee slowly lowers from the window.
GIR's
voice: But
I neeeeed tacos! I need them or I will explode! That happens to me sometimes!
Zim:
I
will give you tacos! Oh, such tacos will I give! But you have to take us back
to the base! They're only getting colder, GIR!
Some
cop cars pull up, then a heap load more pull up behind them. From the back of
the GIR house, jets emerge. GIR squeals as he hops into the pileup of cop
cars, sending them flying. Officer Pambrey maneuvers his way around
in his cop car and chases after the GIR house. The GIR house leaps over the
City Center Mall, but the few cop cars that are chasing it crash into the
front of the mall, knocking off some letters. A lot of the neighborhood houses
are wrecked and smoking as the GIR house walks over to its spot. It folds back
into a house and reconnects to the mechanical tentacles in the ground. It
sends its own mechanical tentacles back into the neighboring houses. The neighbor
seen earlier is hammering a plank of wood onto the spot where the tentacles
came through, but the tentacles burst through the plank of wood and knock him
to the floor. The satellite reemerges from the house and unfolds. On the
inside of the house, GIR controls a mechanical arm making it bang a taco
against the walls as he groans.
GIR's
voice: Where's
my mouth!?!
Zim:
Are
you going to cooperate, GIR? It's time we fixed all of this mess and got you
back to normal!
GIR's
voice: Okey
dokey.
The
mechanical arm goes over to Zim and hands him the taco.
Zim:
Thank
you, GIR! Now, take me to the equipment room!
The
floor under Zim lowers. Cut to the Massive where the Almighty Tallest receive
another transmission from Zim.
Zim:
There
were a few problems, some glitches here and there, but despite these minor
mishaps, everything is normal again.
GIR
sits in the background, out of disguise, wearing a Krazy Taco hat and eating a
taco.
Zim:
If possible, things are even more normal now than they ever were.
GIR
moves off screen. Cut to the neighbor's house, where the neighbor sits in his
chair with a mechanical tentacle latched to his forehead. It unlatches then
speeds at the camera.
