[theme song]

(SINGING) Here we go.

We're getting on the raod till we stop, and then we'll shop.

So one, two, three now, baby, here we go.

Here we go.

Here we go, on a mission under cover and we're in control.

Here we go.

Here we go.

We're totally spies, so we'll get on with the show.

Here we go.

Here we go.

Get ready, kids, cause it's time to get Zuni.

Zuni.

Jimmy, are you hungry?

I've got some snacks.

Jimmy.

Jimmy.

SHOW NARRATOR: We now return to our program, Beautiful

People, Miserable Lives.

Oh, Blair, I don't know how to tell you this,

but the diagnosis has been confirmed.

I have dandruff.

Oh, Clay, be strong.

It's not like it used to be.

They have special shampoos now.

Hey.

Normy, what are you doing?

That's our favorite show.

Like I care.

Besides, it's time to get Zuni!

You're going to get a lot more than Zuni if you don't give

me back that remote right now.

Nuh uh.

My mom told your mom that as long as I was staying here,

you had to be nice to.

OK, that does it, you little creep.

Aunt Stella, Aunt Stella, Clover's trying to pummel me.

Clover, you let Normy go.

She hates me.

I'm scared Aunt Stella.

Oh, look what you've done.

Now if you start being nice to Normy this instant,

I'm going to have to punish you. - Punish?

Like hello, if anyone should be punished around here, it's him.

Oops, wrong thing to say.

Yep, she's done for.

Clover, go do your homework.

Already did it.

Then do the dishes.

Finito.

Laundry, then.

Washed, fluffed, folded.

Maybe you should ground her.

Ground me?

Give me a break.

Oh, I'll give you a break, a very long break, because you

are officially grounded.

Mom!

You are forbidden to leave this how for three days,

other than for school.

And I don't want to hear another word about it.

[screaming]

I can't believe I'm grounded.

Talk about major embarrassment.

I haven't been grounded since I was like 12.

I can't get whooped.

I'm supposed to be grounded.

Hello, girls, glad you could come.

Well, actually Jer, I'm supposed to be--

There have been a rash of child disappearances

throughout the city.

And we need your help to decipher how it's happening

and who's behind it.

Our only clue is that during each disappearance,

a pirated transmission was detected using the broadcast

frequencies of the Family Fun network, which is run by media

mogul, Lewis Hightower.

I've read about him.

He's never been one to turn down an opportunity

to have his picture on a magazine cover.

I think a little undercover work is in order.

I believe you are familiar with the [inaudible]

and Ice Queen perfume spray.

Wow, is this a mood ring?

How retro.

Not exactly, Alex.

Point the ring away from you and press the bottom of it.

ALEX: Hey, it's me.

Or, more exactly, a hologram of you, or of whomever the ring

records.

ALEX: Oh, sassy.

Good luck, girls.

[screaming]

Mr. Hightower.

We're from TMZ magazine.

I'm Sam, and this is Clover and Alex.

Thanks so much for taking the time to be with us.

You're certainly welcome, young ladies.

Always have time for an interview.

You did say it would be a cover shot, didn't you?

Oh, absolutely.

As a matter of fact, for the photo,

why don't you sit behind your desk.

And maybe if you hold up some papers, you know,

like you're working, you'll look more execucool.

Execucool, I like that.

Remember to used the special indoor lens, Alex.

Huh?

Oh, of course.

What was I thinking?

Just keep flipping through the papers, Mr. Hightower.

It'll seem more natural that way.

I think we've got all we need, sir.

Thank you very much.

My pleasure, young lady.

Now I suppose you're here to ask me about Zuni World.

Zuni who?

Zuni World?

That's the stupid show my cousin watches.

I mean stupendous show.

Hmm, not just your cousin.

Kids everywhere think it's Zuntastic.

Zuni, Zuni, Zuni, all right.

And they're really Zuning in on this, the new Zuni helmet.

They're flying off the shelves.

I'm sorry, Mr. Hightower.

I couldn't stop him.

Dad, you said we were going to go to lunch together today.

Jason, never interrupt me when I'm in the middle

of an important interview.

Now, run along and if I have time,

maybe we can have lunch next week.

I'll have my assistant call you.

CLOVER: This guy makes my mother seem like a sweetheart.

Ew, after meeting him, I feel like I want to take a shower.

Try a car wash without the car.

Did you see the way he talked to his kid?

Yeah, which reminds me, we've got to speed this mission up

before my mom finds out I'm gone and goes Medusa on me.

Sure thing, Clover, right after

we print out the x-ray shots Alex took of those papers.

I have a feeling they'll give us some important clues.

[music playing]

According to these documents, the Family Fun channel

satellite dish is on this island.

ALEX: Maybe we can find out something

about the pirated broadcast transmissions Jerry mentioned.

Next time let's take the escalator.

[screaming]

Whoa, that was totally uncalled for.

You're telling me.

I broke a nail.

Obviously there's some kind of high tech invisoshield

around this satellite dish.

Somebody doesn't want us messing around here.

So what do we do?

Dive.

What is it?

This must be the pirate transmission.

I'll try to track the origin of the signal with my com powder.

Huh?

Where's that nasty shield go?

Does that answer your question?

[screaming]

Ow, ow, ow, funny bone.

Ow, funny bone.

[phone ringing]

Hello?

Clover, where are you?

I told you not to leave the house.

I couldn't help it, mom.

I had a rehearsal for the school musical, Kung Fu chorus line.

Yes, from the sound of things, you're having quite a party.

But I think it's time you made your curtain call.

Mom, I'm kind of busy right now.

It's the big fight scene.

You better get home this instant,

or you're grounded for life.

What a cast iron tyrant.

That'll teach you to get me more grounded.

[screaming]

Luckily, I captured a sample of the pirate signal

on my com powder to send to WOOHP for analysis.

Maybe we should get out of here

before those munchkin freaks with the hardhats

come looking for us.

I'd almost rather fight with them than go home and face

my mother.

[music playing]

[sighs]

Psst, so can you sneak out yet?

I thought I heard voices.

You weren't on the phone, were you, Clover?

How could I be when you took it out of the bedroom?

I got a Zuni helmet.

I've got a Zuni helmet.

And you don't.

You should put that tongue back in your mouth,

it might attract flies.

Zuni!

Zuni, Zuni!

I think you guys are going to have

to bust this case without me.

I can't believe I'm stuck here.

Yeah, Jerry.

Hello, spies.

We've traced the frequency sample you gave us.

And oddly, it's coming from the same island

the satellite dish is on.

There must be some kind of underground broadcasting

station on the island.

We're also detecting a private transmission

that's taking place right now.

I think you girls have some more investigating

to do on that island.

Hey, that's Normy.

Normy, where are you going?

OK, as nice as it is to see him with this mouth shut,

something's wrong.

I'm coming with.

How are you going to do that?

Spot anything, Clover?

Not yet.

Too bad I didn't tag Normy's ear with a tracking

device when I had the chance.

Well, keep looking.

He couldn't have gotten very far.

Got him.

Normy's down there with a group of kids.

And they're all wearing those Zuni helmet.

That's Zudcreepular.

I'll say.

Those helmets are receiving a signal that matches the signal

of the pirate transmission.

They're heading toward the pier.

Let's put the chopper down, Alex.

OK, this is too freaky.

It's like Normy and the other kids are hypnotized

or something.

We've got to stop them.

Wait, if we stop them now, we could lose our chance

to find out who is behind this.

We'll be noticed if we use the chopper.

Let's break out the aquaties.

Aquaty?

Don't even start with that.

[music playing]

Hurry, or we'll be locked out.

Locked out?

We'll be anchove paste.

I've heard of close shaves, but that

was more like a full body wax.

OK, this is totally unexpected.

Hey, that's why those people who

attacked us at the satellite dish were so short.

They were kids.

Yeah, kids with some seriously bad attitudes.

Welcome to Zuni World.

A place where kids rule and always will.

Zuni World is a brave new world.

And I am your brave new leader.

Remember, anyone over the age of 12 is your enemy.

Train hard and prepare for the coming war against the adults.

Zuni rules.

Zuni rules.

War against the adult?

So Zunfrightful.

We've got to get to the satellite dish

and stop the signal from being broadcast.

Zuni rule.

Zuni rules.

Zuni rules.

Look, there's Normy.

Normy, come on.

Snap out of it.

Be your usual, obnoxious self.

Adults, Zuni.

Adult alert.

Adult alert.

Eliminate them.

Let's see, three of us, 1,000 of them.

Any way you look at it, it still adds up to one thing.

Run!

[screaming]

Mmm, taffy.

Pretty good, too.

Clover, I just want you to know that this

is all for your own good.

One day you'll thank me.

You're right, mom.

This is exactly what I deserve.

Thank you for a just and appropriate punishment.

Well, all right then.

I'll just check in on you later dear.

You adults are going to find out just how strong we can be.

Adults?

Hello, teenagers here.

It's OK, honest mistake.

Now if you just untie us.

Not a chance.

The first team to get one of the girls to explode

gets all the candy they can eat.

Zuni!

Explode?

I don't think I'm going to like this.

Ready, set, fire.

We're going to drown.

Maybe not.

Nice work, Alex.

Thanks, Clover.

Attack.

Zuni!

Wow, it's like a blender with feet.

Where am I?

Who are you?

Use the Ice Queen spray on the helmets.

[crying]

Normy.

Zuni.

Normy, Normy.

Clover?

You are going to be so busted after I tell

your mom you left the house.

Hmm.

Well, Normy's back to normal, as if that's

anything to celebrate.

We still need to stop that satellite

transmission before for those kids tear us to pieces.

You guys go up and see if you can do something.

I'm going to find this mysterious Zuni.

Great, more climbing.

[laughing]

[screaming]

You think you can beat me, but you can't.

You and your friends will soon be destroyed.

Stop hiding, you coward.

[laughing]

I should have known you'd be in there.

Roaches like to hide in the dark.

OK, helmet head, show your face.

Hey, are you the Family Fun channel executive's son?

Why should you care?

Look, you have every right to be angry at your father, Jason.

But you can't take it out on every adult in the whole world.

Yes, I can.

And I will.

Soon, satellites placed in every country

will allow me to beam my hypnotic signal

across the globe.

Oh, won't my father surprised with the ratings

I generate when Zuni world really is an actual world

and not just a show.

Man have you got a discipline problem.

[laughing]

I'll show you what discipline really means.

Time for you to take a time out.

Hey, let me go.

Or-- or--

Or what?

You'll tell your daddy on me?

I don't think so.

About time.

I was really getting sick of that thing.

[crying]

I want my mommy.

Excellent job, once again, Sam.

Thanks, Jerry.

I think you owe someone a big apology.

Jason, I'm sorry for being such a jerk to you.

What do you say I make it all up to you

by taking you to the amusement park?

I'll check my schedule and have my assistant call you.

He's got his work cut out for him.

It would appear so.

Don't worry, children.

You'll all be back home safe and sound before you know it.

Take me home now, Clover.

I'm hungry and I want to tell on you.

Can I use your com powder?

I left mine at home.

What are you doing?

Just connecting with the hypno frequency

Sam sent over to Jerry.

I'm sure it's still stored on a loop databank.

You are going to forget everything you've seen today.

As far as you know, I've been happily

locked in my room all day.

Not only that-- let's go.

Well Clover, I'm happy you were

able to make it through the whole day

without disobeying me once.

It was no big deal, mom.

Well, just to show you how impressed I am,

I am ending your grounding as of now.

All right.

And not only that, I'm going to let you take your cousin,

Normy, to the park to play.

I can live with that.

Here you are, girls.

Can I get you anything else?

Aw, no, Normy.

That's good for now.

You can go play.

Thank you, Clover.

I love you.

I know you do.

So, how long are you going to leave him like that?

Not too long.

Just until he's about 15 or so.

In the mean time, do you think he can learn

to give a good foot massage?

All this spy work is hard on my pedicure.

[laughing]
