Hey, Ginger, I think there's been a mistake.

A mistake on my plate?

Really? I ordered my eggs scrambled.

These are fried.

Let me fix that for you.

There. Scrambled.

Happy? Not really.

You're usually grumpy, but this is an extreme.

Even for you. I'm not in a good mood.

What's wrong?

There's this big concert festival thing tomorrow, but I can't go. My brother...

Ethan was supposed to cover my shift, but he can't make it. One of his teeth

exploded. Ginger, I'm sure you can... Wait.

What? Teeth can explode?

Ooh, I got an idea.

We could run the cafe tomorrow.

Look, Sophia, you're not the worst person in the world.

And you... Anyway, kids can't run this place.

Okay, are we just going to ignore the whole tooth exploding thing?

What kids?

I don't see any kids here.

We got this.

Think, but it ain't gonna happen. Okay, you can't even drive a car. Well, not

legally.

Excuse me, can I get some ice? I've got a bit of a toothache.

Run, soap, run, that tooth is gonna blow.

But teeth don't really... Let's talk or run!

Nothing like settling down with a good book.

We need your help to run the falling owl tomorrow.

Ginger won't let us do it alone because she thinks we're just kids.

So we need your help. You're an adult?

Kind of?

I wish I could, but my talent is needed here.

I call this the Tower of Knowledge.

It may be the most important artistic work of all time.

Uh -huh.

Think how artistic you could be at the cafe.

I'll try Nuevo recipes, ingredients from local farms, aggressively forcing your

organic lifestyle on everyone in Starfall.

Yes! It is the perfect way to push my beliefs on everyone.

I request...

Nay. I demand you let me do this.

You're in. Awesome. Let's go.

R .I .P. Tower of Knowledge.

Karate trophy, bowling trophy, horse racing trophy.

Do you think that means blue race on a horse or against a horse?

With blue? Could be either.

He has a trophy for knitting?

I didn't even know knitting could be competitive.

Huh.

Soapbox derby.

Fat.

Just once, I'd like to come into my garage and not find kids.

I have three questions.

What's a derby, what's a soapbox, and what's a soapbox derby?

Back in my day, we used to build cars out of wooden soapboxes. And then, we'd

race them downhill.

That sounds awesome.

Can you show us how to make one?

All right, but you have to promise this will be the last time you crash my

garage unannounced.

You know I can't do that. Same.

It was worth a shot. But if we're going to do this, safety first, boys.

This might get a little dangerous.

Cool.

Well, still no.

But we have to do it.

He's a slightly taller child.

Hey, I'll have you know I'm an old soul.

Although I am young at heart. I guess that makes me middle -aged. Yeah, I've

coffee to pour.

Oh, wow!

The festival you're gonna miss looks totes incredible.

Whoa! All those amazing bands? The world's tallest Ferris wheel?

And bubbles?

You can dance inside?

I've been inside a bubble before. Big deal. And there's gonna be hundreds...

Thousands of food trucks from every country on the planet.

Variety?

Overrated. Is that a 70 -foot statue made entirely of strawberries? It is.

Everyone eats it on the last day.

Sounds like strawberry salmonella shortcake.

And what is this?

There's going to be baby pandas you can pet and cuddle?

Shut your mouth!

Baby pandas?

Okay, fine. You can run the cafe.

But you have to have an actual adult around. Got it?

Got it. Here, take this.

Hello! Listen, one, hold up with the handle, Sparkles.

You know my name's not Sparkles, right? Yeah, whatever. I gotta go get ready.

Baby Panda!

Seriously, does she not know my name?

Who cares, Sparkles?

We're running the cafe!

Sometimes parents need a little help.

So we're helping ours get together.

My mom, my best friend, her dad, huge movie star.

And things might get a little crazy.

Okay, a lot crazy.

But that's just life in Starfall.

Mmm.

That milkshake was amazing.

I love how you blended the bananas, chocolate, and strawberries into one

delicious sauce.

Don't forget the ketchup.

That was a mistake.

But a tasty one, right? There was ketchup in that?

Well, still way better than gingers.

But don't tell her I said that. She scares me.

Oh, me too.

Well, I'd love to stay for more of your adventures in blending, but you've got a

handle on the place, so I'll leave you to it.

Call if you need anything.

Hey, Phoenix, table three needs their grilled cheese.

On it.

I've added something unique. Spicy mustard presenting a thrilled cheese.

We're so, so good at this. Running a cafe is super easy.

Why is Ginger so grumpy? Lack of panda time, I'm guessing.

Anyway, let's do her a favor and make this place even better. Yes, I could

improve the food.

Like bacon and eggs with quail eggs instead of chicken eggs.

Also, I could use locally sourced ingredients, like moth.

Not to rain on what I have to believe is an actual parade in your head, but

quail eggs are kind of small, and moth isn't food. But it is local.

Isn't that what matters?

Maybe. And I'll document every moment of it. I can live stream every table on

Diamond Life. And there must be some way I can use the cafe to help out the

animal rescue.

We could serve cats.

I mean as customers, not food.

All right, boys.

Now, if you want to build a soapbox racer, where do you think you start?

The wheels?

Before that. The main plank?

Before that.

A bunch of nails?

Even before that.

You start with the perfect piece of wood, which is why I plant and harvest

own trees from the forest. It's the only way to be sure.

Sure of what?

That it's cheap.

Those maniacs at the lumber store charge $2 .50 for a board like this.

So you planted trees and waited 20 years so you could save $2 .50?

That's money in the bank.

Can we just build a car already? I want to race.

Quality takes time.

The best soap boxes are made exclusively with wood parts.

Like what cavemen would drive?

Dude, cavemen would drive cars made of stone.

22, 23, 24.

Don't stop there.

You don't truly experience the flavor unless you chew 25 times.

See, didn't that last chew release the full essence of my creation?

So, how amazing is it? cafe amazing amazing or amazing amazing amazing do

please put that camera away oh for sure close that's not for everybody but don't

worry there are webcams all over the cafe so one of them will catch your good

side excuse me there seems to be a cat on our table yeah

we're collaborating with the happy tails animal rescue and i see you ordered the

tuna melts you know who will melt your heart and eat your tuna Mittens!

Yes, she actually is eating my tuna.

Aww.

Do we have a match? Should I get the adoption paper?

I'll take that as a maybe.

Everyone's leaving.

Do you have to keep pushing your camera in their faces?

Uh, yes.

Do you have to teach them how to chew the food?

It's very important.

Guys, relax.

They're leaving because of both of you. Or it's because they keep finding

hairballs in the soup. What? That's crazy. No one has ever... Hairball.

a hairball.

Oh.

There. Now, this is where it gets exciting.

When we continue to sand this for another 20 minutes.

Ah, who knew race cars could be so boring?

You think sanding a piece of wood for over an hour is boring?

Lou, there have been some advances in racing technology since you made a

Shouldn't we be using lightweight aluminum tubing?

Why? That's what NASA uses.

We're not racing aliens.

Can we? No.

Okay, then. Fine.

But I'm painting on some wicked skulls and crossbones.

Racing cars should only have racing stripes.

And that's only if you're a showboat in fancy pants.

All in favor of having the car look super cool and be made with cutting

materials. Say aye.

Oh, yeah.

Aye. All right, all right. I see the way the wind is blowing.

I'll just get out of your hair if that's what you want.

Just holler if you need anything.

You think we're too hard on him?

Maybe. Hey, Lou!

Not so easy, is it? Now, how can I help you? Can you make us a sandwich?

Wow.

We ruined a business in one afternoon.

Gotta be a record.

Where did we go wrong?

Nothing to do with my culinary masterpieces.

Oh, yeah?

Eat this moss.

Uh... Okay.

Mm -hmm. Go ahead.

I'm sure it'll be delicious.

Uh -huh. I can't wait to eat it. Remember, 25 chews so you really get the

flavor. Guys, stop it.

Oh, thank you.

But for the record, I'm sure it would have been tasty. I think we can agree

all of us turned this into a complete disaster.

Yeah, you're right.

You speak the truth.

But hey, if we work together, we can put everything back to how it was before

Ginger gets home.

That's a great idea.

I'll supervise.

Okay, okay, I'll help.

Oh, a new customer.

Hello, welcome to the Falling Owl.

Please have a seat at any table.

Maybe not that one, because he's a bit territorial.

That won't be necessary.

Oh, you're a police officer.

You eat for free. I wouldn't eat here if you paid me.

Partially because I already ate, but mostly because I am a health inspector.

Now, I received several calls about a live stream coming from this cafe, and

when I checked it out, I was horrified.

You know, health inspectors eat for free, too, if... I'll be quiet now.

I'm shutting you down.

What? Why?

It's my job. I have to shut you down.

Give me one reason why and I will graciously accept your decision. For

you can't have live animals in a restaurant.

Okay, two reasons. You can't film people without their express permission.

Three reasons.

Moth isn't food.

See? Now until you correct all of these violations, the falling owl...

We'll be closed.

But if we clean this place up, you can come back in a couple hours and let us

reopen. Great. Phew, that was a close one. I'm all right.

Stop being happy.

I'm not coming back.

At 4 o 'clock, I'm getting into a taxi to Cloverdale for my health and safety

tour. Ooh, health and safety tour. Sounds like you're kind of a rock star.

I am not.

The earliest I can return is two weeks.

Good day.

Good day?

Good day?

How am I supposed to have a good day? Ginger gets back tonight and she's going

to freak.

Bad day. Such a bad day.

Calm down.

As the adult, I can handle this.

Maybe I can make a moss casserole.

A moss -a -roll.

I just had an awesome idea.

Our race car needs a roll bar.

Oh, and spoiler alert, it should have a spoiler on the back. We don't need any

of that stuff.

Okay, we'll just do the roll bar.

And the spoiler.

No. All our car needs is a place to sit and some wheels.

That's called an office chair.

You want this thing to go fast, you need to make it light. You ever see a fast

hippo? No.

Now I want to.

Anyway, it needs a body, or at least a hood.

Good point.

That's where I'll paint the snakes and skulls.

Okay. Clearly we have very different ideas, so there's only one solution.

We flip a coin.

Nah. Too much work.

Let's just make our own cars.

Yes!

Then we'll see who has the better racer.

Me with my top -of -the -line cutting -edge car, or you with your office

Let's do it.

Okay, I got the last of the cats back to the rescue.

At least I think that was the last.

Did I bring seven cats or eight?

This might be a problem.

We've got bigger problems. The health inspector leaves town in 20 minutes. How

are we going to fix this?

Oh, I got it. Sophia, you clean up the cafe.

Phoenix, can you play a convincing chauffeur?

Aye, governor.

No accent?

Got it. And I always wanted to be a chauffeur, just to sit back and listen

the stories of everyday people as I hit the open road with only a pine tree air

freshener and a dream.

Are you sure this is a good idea?

We've got no time to come up with a better plan.

Wish us luck.

Huh. What do you know?

It was a... Presenting the... Future of speed.

I call it the fast hippo.

Why would your car need a satellite dish?

The real question is, why wouldn't it?

And yes, it's purely for show.

Well, you want to see a show? Then check out the car of my dreams.

So your dream car is basically a skateboard with walls.

And flames and lightning bolt. And no steering wheel.

Bold move.

Steering wheels are for cowards.

Cowards who enjoy going in a specific direction.

We'll see whose car's better when we race him down Dead Man's Hill.

You mean the little hill by the ice cream shop?

Yes.

Took you long enough.

Heading to Cloverdale.

Let's go.

You got it.

Handsome piece of luggage you got here.

Let's go.

So, uh, you married?

Yes. Why?

Not me.

Some people find the road to be a lonely place.

But I don't. I take comfort in its endless horizon and find wisdom in its,

street signs.

Haven't I seen you before?

I don't think so.

Yeah, you're that weird kid from the cafe.

I don't know what you're talking about.

But the kid you saw is probably just some misunderstood genius.

It is you!

Hi! Hi!

What are you doing here?

Just heading to Cloverdale, but we've got one quick stop first.

Let me guess, your disgusting cat cafe.

No. Well, yes, but it's cat -free now and super normal and clean.

Forget it. I'm not going back.

You sure?

Because your luggage is... Wait, what? What?

Hey!

Wait!

Fine!

no masks, no webcams. Now you can throw out those silly little health

violations. Everybody's happy.

I said, everybody's happy.

That's your cue to be happy.

Yeah, that's not going to happen.

And I want my luggage back.

Please, there has to be something we can do.

Yeah, if Ginger finds out we got our cafe closed down, she'll not be happy.

Not that she ever was.

Oh, I know.

How about you do another inspection and I'll give you free advertising on my

online channel?

Okay, let me think. Yeah, no.

But I have like 10 million followers.

That's an awful lot for an annoying kid.

That's because this annoying kid is Diamond Brooks.

Sorry, but you can be a little annoying sometimes.

Wait, Brooks?

Is your father Craig Brooks?

We just call him Dad.

No way.

I'm Craig Brooks' biggest fan.

Well, we can get you an autograph, maybe two, if you reopen the cafe.

Autograph? For what you just put me through?

Yeah, that's not going to cut it.

But I have something that just might work.

Let's make this race interesting.

I'm listening.

The loser has to give the winner a jillion dollars.

That's not a number, but deal.

Three, two, one, go!

Who?

Eat my dust!

See you at the bottom of the hill, boys!

What? Oh, man.

Wow.

So, boys, looks like you just got grandpa'd. Too bad we didn't bet

Actually, we did.

A jillion dollars.

That's not a number.

Lou, that was amazing.

How did you get your racer to go so fast?

I couldn't tell you, but this time you'd have to listen.

Feel?

Listen? Yeah, no thanks.

So tell me again, why am I here?

Because you're going to act out a scene from your racing movie, The Quick and

the Quick. Uh -huh. And why am I acting out a scene with him?

Hi, Craig.

Because he's a big fan.

And we know how much you love to give back to the fan.

Go with it, Dad.

And action!

You double -crossed me, McGrath.

Half of that heist money is mine.

You want it? You'll have to race me for it.

Looks like we're in this together.

I got a plan.

Is it crazy?

Just crazy enough to work.

That just made my life.

Thank you.

Anytime. Really?

No. This was a one -time thing.

And I'm still not sure why I had to do it.

But I have to get back to set so you kids can explain later.

Well, we held up our end of the deal.

Or did you?

You really did. I was just still in character.

The falling owl is clear to reopen.

Yes, we did it! We're amazing.

Huh. Place looks pretty good.

Did you have any problems?

Why would you ask that? We're responsible neighborhood teens.

Right, guys?

Yep. Toad's responsible.

Neighborhood teen.

So, how was the festival?

Amazing. They didn't have those baby pandas, though. I pet some raccoons

instead.

What are you doing?

Oh, just getting rid of Phoenix's specials. Looks yum.

Give it.

Not bad.

Mmm. Chewy.

Earthy. I like it.

See? I told you.

Sparkles, you try this.

You know my name's not... Quiet, Sparkles.

If there are no other questions, we'll be on our way.

And don't forget to chew 25 times.

Duh.
