And U.S. department of education

Bye, honey.

Bye!

Oh, take care of yourself.

Ok. Bye, mom.

Bye, son.

Good luck in college.

But, dear, he's only a baby.

Yeah, but he's a smart baby.

[Crying]

Those aptitude tests said Dexter is Ivy league material.

Now, you know those tests don't lie.

At last, the university!

I wonder what kind of a brilliant mind

will get paired with my over-engorged brain?

Ah, this is it.

Hello, genius roommate.

Your new genius roommate Dexter is here.

Hey, genius roommate dude.

What's happening, man?

Uh, genius roommate,

is your name, uh, Gabriel?

Dude, I'm Gabe.

Yeah!

You're my new roommate!

Nice. Got yourself some food.

Very cool.

So listen, young dude, there's a little

beginning-of-the-year shindig tonight,

and you, young dude, are going.

Parties, parties. Always with the parties.

Is that all you're here for?

No way, young dude.

For your information, I am deep in work

on a top, top secret project:

The world's largest didgeridoo.

Digi-do-doo? Do what?

Hey, man, you better take it easy

on the studies, young dude,

or you're gonna burn yourself out, baby.

Party now, study later.

Party now! Study later!

All: Party now! Study later!

Party now! Study later!

[Bell ringing]

Dexter, voice-over: Though I am surrounded by slackers,

there will be no cutting corners for me.

While they party their midnight away,

I will be diving headfirst into the knowledge.

My roommate Gabe,

perhaps the prince of slackers,

warns me of burning out.

But for a mind as bright as mine,

that is simply impossible.

Now to get started on my reading.

[Crickets chirping]

Man: Party!

[People shouting]

[Loud music playing]

There's got to be a quieter place to study.

[Beeping]

Ha!

Eat my dust, toad.

Oh, yeah? Here comes the leader shell.

Here's lightning for both of you.

[Laughing]

Hey, nerds, shut up!

2, 3, 4.

Good acoustics in here.

[Loud music playing]

[People cheering]

Aah!

Hey, Dex, care to join

your buddy here for a dip?

[Laughing nervously]

No, thank you.

[Soft music playing]

Oh, Mr. Resident advisor.

What?

Excuse me, Mr. Resident advisor,

but I must report a disturbance.

You, get in here.

Hey, look who came to party.

Young dude? Hey!

Gabe, what are you--

ok, turn the music back up. Way up!

You're just in time, young dude.

For what?

For my newest invention.

In all my 32 years of being a student here,

this is my greatest achievement yet.

I give you the ultimate party hot tub!

Ha ha!

All: Wow!

Gabe: Turn on the jets, man.

Dexter, voice-over: Study, study.

Study.

Study...

Gabe, voice-over: Hey, man,

you better take it easy on the studies.

Dexter, voice-over: Study, study.

Study, study, study.

[Rising in volume] Study, study, study!

Study, study, study!

Study! Study! Study!

Gabe, voice-over: You're gonna burn yourself out, baby.

Dexter, voice-over: Study, study! Study! Study!

Study!

Study, study, study.

Study! Study! Study! Study! Study!

Study!

Shut up!

Shut up!

Aah!

[Screaming]

[Crash]

Gabe, party now!

No party now. Final paper now.

Last minute all-nighter, you dig?

Party now!

No, dude. Not now.

Party, party, party, party, party!

Young dude?

Party!

All: Shut up!

Party!

Get lost, kid.

Party!

Dude, time to study.

Par-- shh.

Have to party.

Everybody has to party.

Party now!

All: Shut up!

I'll show them.

Dexter, boy genius, knows how to party.

[Whispering] I'll need something...

Big!

Gabe, voice-over: The world's largest didgeridoo.

Party now!

Ha ha ha ha!

Robots, go!

Higher! Build it higher!

Higher!

With my new flate-a-lab...

I, Dexter, will be the new party guru!

What the heck?

What's going on?

It's so much bigger.

Get out!

Dexter: Ok, everybody, are you ready to party?

'Cause I know I am!

And we're going to do it

in the world's biggest hot tub ever.

But I got an exam today.

Study later! Party now!

[Sigh]

Finally done.

Must save.

[Glass breaks]

[Gurgling]

[Screaming]

Party, party, party.

Party, party, party.

Party, party...

Party, party.

Party, party, party, party.

Didn't you learn anything in college?

Party now, study later.

Party now, study later.

Dad: Son, I'm afraid

it's back to grade school for you.

You just couldn't handle it, could you?

Dexter: Party now!

Dexter: Sweet success.

The finishing touches on my latest

and greatest invention.

I, Dexter, will be the crown Jewel

of the scientific community.

I, Dexter, will be heralded

as the greatest mind of all time.

I, Dexter, will look really cool.

And now, the testing.

Whoa.

I am going to be so rich.

Pardon me, young man.

I seem to have dropped my teeth,

and I need a little help reaching them.

Dexter: Of course

I will help.

Here you go.

Good gravy!

Aah!

What a strange little man.

[Panting]

Must get back to the lab.

Must--oof!

Whoa, there, young feller.

You got to be more careful.

You know, I once lost my wallet

for two weeks in this good stuff.

Ho ho ho ho!

Aah!

Dad: Dexter!

Uh, yes, father?

Where are you going so fast, boy?

Come in here.

There's something I want to discuss with you.

Dexter, have you seen the remote control anywhere?

Uh, no, dad.

Can I go now?

Aah!

I'll have to do it the hard way.

I'm going to be sick.

I know, it's horrible

to have to do it this way.

Aah!

Poor kid, I haven't the heart to tell him

that we used to have to do it this way.

Hey, dad!

Dad: Yes, Dexter?

Try your back pocket.

Back pocket. Hey!

But--

mom: Oh, Dexter, sweetie.

Y-Yeah?

[Gasps]

Would you hand me that light bulb

there on the table?

Here you go, ma.

Thank you, sweetie.

Don't mention it.

Oh, did you find the remote for your father?

Uh, it found me.

Figures.

Hey, Dexter, watch my new dance.

Dee Dee, I do not have time for--

here I go.

Oh, the horror.

Ew. Ick.

Blah.

Ta-da!

Yeah, yeah. Now go.

Dexter, you weren't even watching.

Believe me, I have seen far too much already.

[Panting]

Science does not need this kind of advancement.

Dexter: Free energy.

That would be a scientific impossibility.

But I, Dexter, boy genius,

am about to change that.

Dexter: It's working.

At last, free energy.

I have failed.

How could this happen?

Oh, I have never failed before.

Or have I and didn't know it?

Am I not the boy genius I thought I was?

I am not cut out to be a scientist.

I am just an ordinary boy from an ordinary family.

Can life get any worse?

Mom: Dexter,

it's time to go to grandpa's house.

Yeah, mom.

Hi, dad.

I'll pick you up later, sweetie.

Yeah, mom.

Hi, Billy.

Hi, grandpa.

Grandpa: How you doing,

chum-fella-guy-boy- pal-buddy-friend?

[Scraping]

[Bones crack]

Can I go home now?

Sure you can,

but then you'll never know my secret.

What secret?

My secret laboratory.

Secret laboratory?

Yep.

I've kept it a secret

since I was about your age.

[Door opens]

But if you want to go home...

Go home?

I'm not going anywhere

until I see your secret laboratory.

Grandpa: Ok, ok. Slow down. Slow down!

Look out, secret stuff. Here I come.

Secret lab, here we come.

Look out.

No stopping us now.

Coming through.

Grandpa: Left, left.

Left, right, left.

Chugga-chugga chugga-chugga.

Chugga-chugga chugga-chugga.

Chugga-chugga chugga-chugga.

Woo woo!

Dexter: Grandpa?

Grandpa?

Grandpa?

[Snoring]

I guess I'll just have to find the lab myself.

If I were a secret lab, where would I be?

Bingo!

One of these books must be the switch

to gain access to the lab.

Dexter: Aha!

Ha.

Hmm.

Dexter, voice-over: I have covered every inch of this house

and not a trace of technology.

What is this?

Jackpot.

[Mechanical whirring]

Oh, no.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Dexter: Please, no.

Grandpa. Grandpa, are you ok?

Grandpa?

No!

What?

Huh? Who's there?

Grandpa? Billy?

I'm right here.

Where are you, Billy? Here.

If you can hear me, just follow my voice.

Hi. I just had the craziest dream.

I dreamt I was a thigh exercise machine,

and a giant set of thighs closed around me--

back and forth. Back and forth.

Back and forth.

I confess.

It was me. I couldn't help myself.

I just really wanted to see your secret laboratory.

And you will.

I will?

Uh-huh, right after you clean up this mess.

Dexter: Sounds like the entire lab

is emerging right in front of me.

And now to unveil my greatest invention.

They said it couldn't be done,

but here it is.

Well, ha.

What do you think?

Mind-boggling, eh?

Dexter, thinking: This is no laboratory.

It's just a garage,

and he's just an old man,

and I'm just a boy.

I know.

Oh, it gets me the same way.

She's a real beaut, ain't she?

Yeah, grandpa.

A real beaut.

Grandpa: Here comes the tricky part.

Gently, gently.

[Car horn honks]

You look like you had a good time.

Yeah, ma.

I'll bet you and grandpa have a lot in common.

He's a genius, you know.

Yeah, ma.

You might say he invented us.

And now for the finale.

Grandpa: Yippee!

Look at that, Billy.

Free...energy.

Hey, where'd he go?

I guess he's not interested in science.

Oh, well.

Past the vaulted door

where impossible things may happen

that the world's never seen before.
