CYD: Previously on Best Friend Whenever.

I'm tired of being scared of this future lab.

I want to see what this guy's up to.

Did you see the logo on that guy's suit?

Yeah. What do you think it was?

I don't know.

But now, we have a clue.

We have to figure out what this means.

Barry! (SHUSHING)

I'm trying to figure out which one of these is my water glass

and which one is the highly corrosive acid.

(SIZZLING)

(GROANING)

Barry! Is that acid, too?

No, I just remembered.

I needed this spoon for my yogurt!

So, what's up? Barry, we have huge news.

Yes, go on. I just need to check on some experiments around my lab.

We jumped back to the future lab!

You know, with the glowing tables that we're strapped onto.

Only this time, we saw someone enter.

And he... Or she...

We hope the evil lab is an equal opportunity employer.

So that jerk of a man... Or powerful woman...

Had a logo on his or her chest!

It's a clue!

Mmm-hmm.

The logo was really unique.

It had this circle. Like, maybe a planet.

Yeah, a planet.

And a letter in the middle.

Was it a "D"? Or a "C"?

We saw it pretty quickly.

But I'd know it if I saw it again.

And it had one of those science-y symbols around it.

I bet you know what it's called.

You probably have something like that around here.

That's it! And it's there, too!

It's all over his lab!

What do we do? We can't let him know we know.

What if he's involved in the future lab?

We have to go figure this out!

All right, girls. I'm done with my experiments.

You have my full, undivided attention.

That's what I get for paying attention.

What's up with them?

Renaldo, if I knew why girls did anything,

do you think I'd spend so much time alone in this lab?

The answer is "Yes, I would."

I love science.

? I know it sounds crazy

? But time doesn't faze me

? Ever since it lost its hold on me

? Hey, hey

? Hung out till midnight

? Missed the curfew, that's all right

? I'm back to bed and right on time, you'll see

? Whenever

? You need me

? I'm right there with you

? Whenever

? There's something

? You wanna redo

? The clock is ticking but not for me

? I'm living in a different reality

? Whenever

? Whatever

? Wherever

? I'm right there with you

? I'm right there with you

? Hey, hey ?

We have to figure out

what Barry knows about that logo.

But we have to be clever about it

in case he's involved with the future lab.

We'll be as clever as the girl detectives

in the YA novel I'm writing.

Cyd and Shelby: Teenage Detectives.

You put my name first.

It's alphabetical. It is alphabetical.

BOTH: Aww!

Cyd is the no-nonsense rule-breaker

with a sick backhand.

(GRUNTS) (CLATTERING)

The lamp had it coming!

I'll buy you a new lamp.

And Shelby is this spunky world traveler.

Where's she gonna go next?

(SCREAMS)

Let's go talk to Barry.

We'll do the classic bad cop, klutzy cop routine.

Which one am I? (SCREAMS)

I think we found Shelby's diary, Bret.

Let's read it, Chet.

BOTH: Wow!

I can't believe Shelby and Cyd are teenage detectives.

I can't believe we have to wait to see what happens next.

We don't have to wait. Let's follow them and find out!

Good thinking, Chet.

That's why you're the idea man.

I'm just good looking.

So what's this important thing

you need to talk to me about?

Oh, it's nothing big.

We're just wondering what's new with you, Barry.

Come on, you can tell us.

Not like we're teenage detectives or anything.

Whoa! If I didn't know any better,

I'd think you were teenage detectives.

Tell us what you know, you filthy scrunch!

Yeah, tell us what you... (SCREAMS)

Watch out, Barry.

They're running the classic bad cop, klutzy cop routine.

Enough games. Explain this.

(GASPS) All right, Klutzy Cop. You broke me.

It's a water bottle.

This logo is the same one we saw in the future lab.

Why is it on everything in here?

That's the GloboDigiDyne logo.

It's a major corporation that manufactures everything from

computers to military defense systems.

Barry's a big fan of GloboDigiDyne.

He even collects their trading cards.

I have doubles of Barbara from HR.

And a very rare Keith from IT rookie card.

There are only two. Keith's mother has the other one.

I love GDD. In fact,

today I've blocked out my entire afternoon

to watch the new product announcement by Janet Smythe,

the company's CEO.

We don't even know what the product is,

but the Internet calls it "a cash grab by a soulless corporation."

How awesome does that sound?

I hope one day Janet Smythe will announce a new product that I've created.

Like my new app...

The Pocket Audience.

Here's my sales pitch.

How many times have you been in a conversation

when you said something funny and no one laughed?

That happens to me all the time.

There must be a better way.

Well, my new app listens to every conversation you have

and responds like a live studio audience.

Watch this...

Aw, shuds.

(CANNED LAUGHTER)

It's my catchphrase.

Well, we have bigger problems.

What does it mean that the GloboDigiDyne logo

is all over the future lab?

Well, if you're concerned about that,

you should really ask Shelby's father.

He works for GloboDigiDyne.

No, he doesn't. He's an accountant at some big company.

What's the company called? I don't know.

It's GloboDigiDyne.

I can't believe my dad works for GloboDigiDyne.

I can't believe we didn't notice the logos on all your dishes.

Do you think your dad knows about the future lab

where we're strapped to those tables?

I think it's time for us to be Detectives Cyd and Shelby.

But we can't let him know that we're on to him,

so we're gonna have to play it totally cool.

Tell us what you know, you filthy scrunch!

Cyd, don't talk to my dad like that.

Dad, you work at GloboDigiDyne, right?

Why? What have you heard?

Did they call about the dishes I took?

No, we're just wondering about your job.

You've never been interested before.

Shelby! Shame on you not being interested in where your dad works.

I don't know why I'm hanging you out to dry,

but it feels like it's every girl for herself.

No, no, I would do the same thing to you.

One of us has to get through this. Let me have it.

She's a real disappointment, isn't she, Mr. Marcus?

Do you think he notices that we're whispering like this?

I don't know, but we're in too deep to turn back now.

You two are acting weird.

Speaking of weird,

is there anything going on at GDD?

We are nailing this!

(IN A SINGSONG VOICE) ? Teenage detectives! ?

Look, uh, if you want to know about GDD,

(STUTTERING) I really can't talk about it.

Now, if you'll excuse me I need to get to work.

It's really bad if I'm late...

Because no one notices and that makes me sad.

That's odd.

There's something he can't talk about.

He's hiding something. Let's follow him.

Did you hear that, Bret?

I didn't hear any of it, Chet.

Me neither. Let's follow them.

Good morning, Mr. Mingus.

It's Marcus.

I've worked here twelve years.

Then why does your parking space say "Mingus"?

(SIGHS) I don't know.

Hello. We're here for work.

May I see your ID?

We don't have ID.

Then I can't let you in.

It's because we're women, isn't it?

I bet you'd let us in if we were men.

It's gender inequality! It's the glass ceiling!

It's because you don't have ID.

With a man's picture on it!

Are you the volunteers for the robot demonstration?

Right this way.

Hello, we're the volunteers for the robot demonstration.

Oh, right this way.

Oh, and there are two women who've been pretending to be us.

If they show up here, you may want to take care of that.

I think this is where Shelby and Cyd went in.

We need to follow them to find out what happens next in Shelby's diary.

But how do we get in?

Didn't Mom say Dad works here?

Can I help you boys?

We are here to meet our father.

Our mom told us he works here.

So, uh, what's your father's name?

Norm Marcus. (SIGHS)

Thank goodness! I did not need that on a Wednesday.

(CHUCKLES)

Come on, we need to find my dad's office

and try to figure out what he's hiding.

It says here his office is in L-24-west-3.

What floor are we on? Purple.

Come on, I think it's this way.

This GloboDigiPop is great popcorn.

And I love that it has no natural ingredients.

You can really taste the petroleum.

Ooh, Janet Smythe is on.

I hope she doesn't introduce a pocket audience app.

I've worked so hard on mine,

it would be devastating if someone beat me to it.

Don't worry, buddy. You'll have your day.

(CANNED COOING)

We had a nice moment there,

but I feel like your app kind of cheapened it.

GloboDigiDyne.

What is it? Who is it?

In a way, aren't we all?

(APPLAUSE)

Welcome to our latest innovation in futurality.

I give you

GloboDigiBots!

Security robots controlled by the brain waves

of the operators who wear these helmets.

(APPLAUSE, CHEERING)

(WHIRRING)

Your adulation feels like a mother's love.

I'm guessing.

Shortly we'll have a demonstration

where the GloboDigiBots take down two intruders

on level Orange of this very building.

(APPLAUSE)

That was Shelby and Cyd!

Why'd you think your dad's office would be behind that curtain?

You're only saying that because it wasn't there.

If it was there you'd be all like,

"Yeah! I'm glad we looked behind that curtain."

You're right, I totally would've said that.

We need to warn Shelby and Cyd

that there's about to be a demonstration

of security robots in the very hallway

that they are sneaking around in.

So the girls are gonna come face to face with robots?

They're living my dream!

Why is it your dream to come face to face with robots?

So I can teach them to love.

Level Green. How did we get here from Purple?

And where is Dad's office L-24-west-3?

This place is so confusing.

Yes, I found it! Dad's office?

No, the bathroom. I've been holding it since N-18-2-south-7!

(THUDS, WHIRRING)

(WHIRRING)

We still haven't found Shelby and Cyd, Bret.

But we did find these cool helmets, Chet.

Let's put them on!

(WHIRRING)

Now, let's go find the girls.

Hey, watch where you're going!

Okay, the girls aren't answering their phones,

so we'll need to warn them in person.

Are we here to warn them in person,

or so you can pitch your app?

Renaldo, we're here to help our friends.

And if I also get a chance to pitch my app, why not?

I'll take any app-vantage I can get.

(INSECTS CHIRPING)

Hey, come on!

Ha! "App-vantage."

(CANNED APPLAUSE)

I think it's in the delivery.

Okay, I've hacked into GDD's email server and

sent the security desk a message

to expect a genius teen scientist and a new mail boy.

Follow my lead.

Hello, I'm a genius teen scientist.

And I suppose that makes me the new mail boy.

Why are you walking like that?

I'm walking like a teen genius.

I don't walk like that. That's because you're a mail boy.

I mean, I like the environment as much as the next girl,

but I also like dry hands!

Shelby's diary is the most exciting book I've ever lived!

Tummy taps!

(THUD)

Here you go. Have an envelope.

Would you like this package?

And other things a mail boy might say.

Renaldo, don't just sit there.

We have to find Shelby and Cyd

and warn them about the security robots.

Just a second.

I'm pretending to be a genius teen scientist.

My-reka. I believe it's "eureka."

That's what I said, My-reka!

Oh, my gosh. It's her. Excuse me.

I'm a huge fan, Ms. Smythe.

If I could just have a moment.

Here's my sales pitch...

How many times have you had a conversation

when you said something funny but no one laughed?

Never.

Okay, so the last office was L-24-west-2.

So the next office should be L-24-west-3.

And it is...

The Pelican Ballroom.

We're gonna die in here.

It's Shelby. And Cyd.

(THUDS)

Robots are chasing Cyd and Shelby!

This is the best part of the diary ever!

(SCREAMING)

(APPLAUSE)

Robots.

Demonstration.

Security.

Of.

Do these words mean anything?

Not in that order.

Behold, a demonstration of security robots.

(SCREAMING)

Catch them! Crush them!

Eat their human parts and you will become real!

It's very exciting, isn't it?

I am so jealous. I wish I could be you.

Being wowed by me, right now.

Oh. Excuse me.

I wouldn't be handed this if it weren't very important.

Hello? Mother?

I'm right in the middle of a presentation, why aren't you watching?

Yes, I know my brother's a heart surgeon.

No, I don't want to talk to him.

Do not put him on... Hey, Dave.

(APPLAUSE)

Renaldo, what are you...

Good thing we got rid of those robots. That was crazy.

But we've been down this hallway three times already.

We'll never get out of here.

Oh, look, there's your dad.

Oh, thank goodness. I'm not gonna lie, I was losing it.

This is what we came here for.

Let's go spy on him to see if he knows anything about the future lab.

Ms. Smythe, thank you for meeting with me about the promotion.

I'm sorry I'm so nervous.

I even told my family I couldn't talk about it,

because I didn't want to disappoint them if I didn't get it.

(SIGHS) Who am I kidding!

I'm never gonna get it.

That's what he was hiding from us.

He's planning to ask his boss for a promotion.

It's not about the future lab at all.

It was all about my father crumbling under pressure.

That is a relief.

(THUDDING)

There they are.

Let's go see what adventures they're having.

It's the crazy robots! Let's go!

Barry? Naldo? There you are.

We came to warn you to beware of the robots.

(THUDS)

There they are. Beware of them.

(GRUNTS)

Kutzy cop, are you okay?

This is how you love.

Shelby? Cyd? Boys? What are you doing here?

I was watching the presentation on a monitor outside.

Dad, I think we made a horrible mistake.

Like the guy who designed this building.

Why are these kids on my stage? I hate kids.

I mean, children are our future.

Excuse me, Ms. Smythe,

these are my kids and their friends. They're good kids.

I'm sure there's an explanation...

Your kids? I should've known.

Take them and get them out of here. You're fired.

But we were supposed to talk about my promotion today.

I need someone with passion and energy.

Someone who takes initiative.

You were never getting that promotion.

We really messed up.

We have to go back and fix this.

Good. We're back to this morning.

None of that crazy stuff at GDD happened

and your dad didn't get fired.

True. But because he doesn't have passion and energy and initiative,

his boss still isn't gonna give him that promotion,

and he has no idea.

Hey, Dad.

The way you said we were good kids

and stood up for all of us was really great.

You should remember that passion and energy and initiative

when you go to work.

What do you mean, "stood up for all of us"?

That's not important right now.

The important thing is...

Remember to show passion and energy and initiative at work

if there's something big happening.

Why do you think something big is happening?

That's not important right now.

Just remember...

Passion, energy, initiative.

I believe in you, Dad. You can do it.

Do what? That's not important right now.

Just go do it. Yes!

I don't know why I'm saying that, but yes!

That was nice, Shelbs.

I hope he gets that promotion.

Me, too.

Well, at least now we know that he has nothing to do with the future lab.

Maybe it's not even at GDD.

Maybe they just made the lab

and somebody else strapped us to those tables in the future.

Well, Norm, you said everything I need to hear.

I never realized how passionately energized you are with initiative.

Yep, that's me.

And with your promotion,

you're now going to be heavily involved

with our top secret experimental division.

Code name: Pelican Ballroom.

I always wondered what was in the Pelican Ballroom.

I brought a surprise home from work for you boys to enjoy for the day.

These are high-tech, experimental,

cutting-edge robots.

Imagine all the amazing things

you'll be able to do with them.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

I always am.

They're doing exactly what we're doing, Chet!

It's like we're in a hot tub, Bret!

Those aren't waterproof.

This is so coming out of my paycheck.
