"KO's Inner Monologue"

Speaker	Dialogue
[The episode starts off with K.O. peeking and inserting a mop to a bucket of water]
K.O.	Hmm. [Squishes the mop] Hmm. [Thinking] Perfect. Today I mop the floor, showing that I’m capable of cleaning up after the mistakes of others. Yeah! I think that looks good. And being reliable is part of being a great hero. [Throws books in the air and gasps] Here comes my super-strong senior Enid.
[Enid comes with holding nachos and eats and spills nachos while she talks]
Enid	[Muffled] Wow. These floors are squeaking clean. Nice job, K.O.
K.O.	My training is paying off. [Mops] Keep it up, K.O.. At this rate, you’ll be the most reliable. [Gasps] What was that? Could it be an enemy? Ambush! Take that! [Knocks down cans] Of course. Preparation. Being prepared is key. Now I’ve been given a chance to improve my stacking ability. I can be a step closer to being great, like Radicles.
[Rad was sleeping on a box]
Rad	Huh? What’s that? Someone thinking about me?
K.O.	All right. Here we go. [Picks up cans] Let’s get stacking like a hero. [Stacks cans] Reliability, preparation, and organization.
Can Wizard	Hey! What have you done to the palace of the Can Wizard?! [K.O. gasps] That’s the trouble with you all today—no respect!
K.O.	[Reads a book] Amazing. Fantastic. The great sage. The real deal himself. I got to ask for his sagely advice.
Can Wizard	Now you look here, large-haired child. [Steps on a can and slips] Whoa! Aah! Help this can wizard!
K.O.	Help? Finally, the most important trait. I will help. Aaaah!
[Can Wizard and K.O. both slipped and triggered the pile of TNT, which caused an explosion in the bodega. K.O. takes the Can Wizard outside]
K.O.	Excellent work, K.O.. The sage is safe from harm.
Can Wizard	What is wrong with you?! [Hits K.O. with his cane]
K.O.	That’s it! [Reads his book] What I must do is seek even more opportunities to further my hero-ness. [Closes book] Thank you sage. Without even saying a word of advice, I have learned from you. Now, with this newfound piece of wisdom, I will blossom even more.
Can Wizard	Not another one of those young inner monologuers!
K.O.	Help out even more sages and seek guidance. [Reopens his book] In no time, I will be a great sage.
[The short concludes]

"Action News"

Speaker	Dialogue
[Globe Man appears to start the announcements]
Announcer	This is Action News 52, bringing you your daily dose of action news with two-time-arm-wrestling-champion-turned-award-winning-news anchor, Dynamite Watkins.
[Dynamite Watkins appears from ripping through the wallpaper and flipping her table]
Dynamite Watkins	A-A-A-ction! [Pants] This is Dynamite Watkins with the latest newsworthy action from the neutral zone. Tonight, we bring you the long-awaited clash between Ted Viking…
Ted Viking	Yeah, hello.
Dynamite Watkins	…and Big Bull Demon!
[Big Bull Demon laughs]
[Ted Viking and Big Bull Demon fights while the crowd watches them]
[Teamster moves the background out of the way and Dynamite Watkins walks to the Bodega]
Dynamite Watkins	But, first, some local news. A robbery was thwarted at the otherwise-peaceful shopping complex, Lakewood Plaza Turbo. These three employees were eyewitness to the mayhem. [Background scene shows the Bodega damaged] Looks like quite the showdown happened here. [She puts the microphone towards Rad]
Rad	I can field this one, Ms. Watkins. I just kind of single-handedly saved the day, you know. It went a little something like this. [Shows flashback] It was a little after lunch. [The robber enters the bodega] A never-do-well snuck in, looking to steal some bags of money from our bags-of-money aisle. [The robber grabs the bag of money] Unforch for him, he ran into a little something called Radicles.
[The robber is frightened at the sight of Rad]
Rad	Grr.
Robber	Eek!
Rad	Oh, and Radicles’ fist. [Rad punches the robber as the flashback ends]
Dynamite Watkins	Whoa! What a heroic tale.
Enid	[Grabs the mic from Rad and scoffs] It actually went down like this. [Starts another flashback] I noticed the thief before Radicles did [Enid pops out of a disguise while the robber was sneaking out] and set up a ninja shadow trap… [The shadow grabs the robber] which allowed Rad to do whatever he did. [Rad punches the robber]
Dynamite Watkins	Mind blown!
Enid	So yeah, it was basically all me.
Rad	Hey! Don’t take credit for my heroics!
Enid	Ba-ba-ba! Ba-ba!
Enid & Rad	Ba-ba-ba! Ba-ba! Ba-ba-ba-ba!
[K.O. takes the mic from Enid]
K.O.	Hey, Ms. Watkins, ma’am? Actually, I caught the thief.
Dynamite Watkins, Enid, & Rad	You?
K.O.	I was the one who tied him up.
[Shows the robber beat up and tied up]
Dynamite Watkins, Enid, & Rad	[Falls] Bluh!
Dynamite Watkins	Oh! But wait. How did the bodega get destroyed, then? [The A from the sign falls off]
Enid	Oh, that was an unrelated incident. We were having a contest to see who could juggle the most bombs.
[Enid, Rad, and K.O. holds the bombs]
Dynamite Watkins	There you have it! [The bombs exploded] Dynamite Watkins signing off. And now the weather.
Meteorologist	Thanks Dynamite. For tonight’s forecast, everything is on fire! [The map shows fire]
[The short concludes]

Rad	Okay, K.O., go long!
[K.O. starts running and panting]
Rad	Hyyyyyah! [Throws the can]
[The can went through K.O.’s hair, creating a hole and smashes a cardboard cut-out of Mr. Gar]
Rad	Homey, that was Mr. Gar’s favorite display.

Enid, K.O., & Rad	Yes, sir!
K.O.	Oh, man! Mr. Gar is so cool!
Rad	I wish I knew what he did on those super secret missions.
Enid	Or at least what planet he’s on when we call him.
K.O.	Can we call him up again and find out?
Enid	Sure thing, bud. But you are gonna have to use your trademark K.O. charm to win him over. Uh, let’s call him away from the mess we haven’t cleaned up yet.
[Calls Mr. Gar]
Mr. Gar	[Growl] What do you want this time?
K.O.	So… what kinda mission are you on now?
Mr. Gar	Need-to-know basis. Don’t call me again unless it’s an emergency!
K.O.	Ugh! That only made me more curious!
Enid	Sorry, bud. You heard the man. No emergency, no calls.
Rad	Hmm.
Enid, K.O., & Rad	Mr. Gar! Mr. Gar!
Enid	It’s an emergency! We ran out of ice cream! We need you down here to—[Mr. Gar drops a big box of ice cream] Mr. Gar, there’s a huge hole in the ceiling! By the way, which planet are you— [He replaces the hole in the ceiling with a new ceiling]

Mr. Gar	[Angry] Enough!! [Comes out of the hologram] I have had enough of you three bothering me for every little thing!
Enid	Mr. Gar, you were here in the plaza the whole time?
Mr. Gar	Yes, I have been at the plaza doing very important things! Why are you interrupting my secret mission?!
K.O.	Is that a video game?
Mr. Gar	[Shocked] Oh! That was my last—
Enid, K.O., & Rad	Oh, wow! Duck Stack! You play Duck Stack?! That game’s the best!
Mr. Gar	[Breathes fires] Get back to work!!

"Enid vs. Rad"

Speaker	Dialogue
[K.O. plays Duck Stack]
Enid	All right, all right. Keep going.
Rad	Can you— Whoa!
[Sees a flipped box on the ground]
Enid	Oh, no, no, no, no! How did you drop that?
Rad	Pbht. Well, maybe if you just stop yammering and let me do my job!
Enid	Maybe if you did your job right, I wouldn’t have to!
[Enid and Rad grunt]
Rad	All you do is sit there and say things to customers all day. I bet I could do better than you.
Enid	Is that a challenge I hear?!
Rad	Sure is!
Enid	[Stomps on Rad’s foot] Pbht! It’s on, stock boy. There will be tears.
[Rad laughs]
Rad & Enid	Hmph!
[They both trade positions]
K.O.	These ducks just won’t get along.
Rad	[Approaches to the counter] All righty, then. [Chuckles] This is gonna be a piece of cake. [Snoring]
Customer 1	Excuse me?
Rad	[Wakes up] Huh?
Customer 1	I have a coupon for a laser sword, but I want to use it on a laser shield.
Rad	Um… I think you should go. [Tosses the customer]
Customer 2	Do these power bananas come in a straight shape? I can’t eat curved things. Whoa! Ah! [Rad tosses him]
Customer 3	Excuse me.
Rad	Gah! [Grunts] [Tosses the customer again]
Customer 4	Hey, I wanna buy all my groceries in all pennies! [Spills the pennies from a bag]
Rad	[Grunts and tosses the customer]
[Many customers are seen shouting]
[Enid prepares to do Rad’s job]
Enid	Who does that meathead think he is? [Stacks a couple of boxes while struggling] [Sighs] How does that beefcake do this every day? [Pushes a button to reveal more boxes] Huh? [Gasps] Ugh!
Rad	[Comes in the break room] Bwah!
[Rad and Enid grunts and pants]
Rad	I don’t know how you do it, Enid. There are so many facets of customer service that don’t involve lifting.
Enid	I gotta hand it to you, too, Rad. Lifting boxes all day is a lot harder than yelling at someone else to do it for you.
[K.O. wins at Duck Stack]
K.O.	Yes!
