Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:03,770 --> 00:00:06,638
"Not by the scales on
our chinny-chin-chins",
2
00:00:06,741 --> 00:00:08,673
said the three brachiosaurs.
3
00:00:08,776 --> 00:00:12,144
So the big bad
dilapasaurus roared back,
4
00:00:12,246 --> 00:00:14,157
'Then I'll huff and I'll puff
5
00:00:14,181 --> 00:00:16,949
and I'll blow your house down.'
6
00:00:17,051 --> 00:00:19,517
And he took a big breath."
7
00:00:19,620 --> 00:00:22,320
And some other stuff
happened. The End.
8
00:00:23,991 --> 00:00:25,335
- Daddy.
- Oh!
9
00:00:25,359 --> 00:00:26,792
I'm awake.
10
00:00:26,894 --> 00:00:29,728
Hey, it's Baby's bedtime.
11
00:00:29,830 --> 00:00:32,230
Daddy has to get on
with the rest of his life.
12
00:00:32,332 --> 00:00:33,631
Want another story!
13
00:00:33,734 --> 00:00:35,901
But if Daddy reads
you another story,
14
00:00:36,003 --> 00:00:37,914
you'll just want
another and another.
15
00:00:37,938 --> 00:00:41,538
I'll be reading and we'll learn
new things together all the time.
16
00:00:41,608 --> 00:00:43,819
Daddy won't have
any time for television.
17
00:00:43,843 --> 00:00:46,678
Tell me a story
or no one sleeps!
18
00:00:46,780 --> 00:00:50,048
OK.
19
00:00:51,718 --> 00:00:54,686
Once upon a time, there
was a little boy called Earl,
20
00:00:54,788 --> 00:00:57,956
who only wanted to grow up to
sing show tunes on the big stage.
21
00:00:58,058 --> 00:01:01,025
- Heard it.
- Uh, but it's my favorite.
22
00:01:01,127 --> 00:01:02,994
Tell me a story about me.
23
00:01:03,096 --> 00:01:04,596
Where did I come from?
24
00:01:04,698 --> 00:01:06,030
You came from an egg.
25
00:01:06,132 --> 00:01:07,832
Where did the egg come from?
26
00:01:07,934 --> 00:01:10,602
Well, eggs come from
mommies and daddies.
27
00:01:10,704 --> 00:01:12,037
Where do they come from?
28
00:01:12,139 --> 00:01:14,384
More eggs! Get the picture?
29
00:01:14,408 --> 00:01:15,618
Now, good night.
30
00:01:15,642 --> 00:01:17,910
Where did the first mommy
and daddy come from?
31
00:01:18,012 --> 00:01:22,614
- I don't know... more eggs.
- But where did
they come from?
32
00:01:22,716 --> 00:01:24,550
Um, they came from...
33
00:01:24,652 --> 00:01:27,986
- they came from...
- How did we all get here?
34
00:01:28,088 --> 00:01:29,321
And why are we here?
35
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,025
Daddy?
36
00:01:36,831 --> 00:01:39,664
I don't know!
37
00:01:39,766 --> 00:01:42,301
I can't figure out why we exist.
38
00:01:42,402 --> 00:01:44,402
I never really thought
about it before.
39
00:01:44,504 --> 00:01:47,739
Well, I just figured we're just
to do things for Mr. Richfield.
40
00:01:47,842 --> 00:01:49,552
- Yeah.
- Beyond that.
41
00:01:49,576 --> 00:01:52,611
Why do dinosaurs
exist on this planet?
42
00:01:52,713 --> 00:01:54,212
For what purpose?
43
00:01:54,314 --> 00:01:57,081
Maybe there are no answers.
44
00:01:57,184 --> 00:02:00,051
Maybe we don't exist at all.
45
00:02:00,153 --> 00:02:02,587
- Huh?
- Maybe none
of this exists.
46
00:02:02,689 --> 00:02:05,390
Not these trees, not this log.
47
00:02:05,492 --> 00:02:07,492
Not even these donuts!
48
00:02:07,594 --> 00:02:09,594
Hey, hey, hey!
49
00:02:09,696 --> 00:02:11,163
That's crazy talk, Sid.
50
00:02:11,265 --> 00:02:14,499
Question the existence of snack
foods and everything falls apart.
51
00:02:14,601 --> 00:02:17,669
Hey, you jaw-flapping,
low-life sacks of compost,
52
00:02:17,771 --> 00:02:18,903
why aren't you working?
53
00:02:19,005 --> 00:02:20,805
Well, sir,
54
00:02:20,908 --> 00:02:23,741
what's the point of work when
we don't know why we exist?
55
00:02:23,843 --> 00:02:26,478
Why you exist?
56
00:02:26,580 --> 00:02:28,358
I'll tell you why you exist.
57
00:02:28,382 --> 00:02:30,048
So you can push down trees.
58
00:02:30,150 --> 00:02:32,384
So cities can be built
for dinosaurs to live in.
59
00:02:32,486 --> 00:02:35,921
So they can push down more
trees, so more cities can be built
60
00:02:36,023 --> 00:02:38,956
so dinosaurs can push... down...
61
00:02:41,028 --> 00:02:43,862
You're right! I don't
know why we exist!
62
00:02:43,964 --> 00:02:46,198
Oh, no!
63
00:03:18,766 --> 00:03:20,932
Honey, I'm home.
64
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:28,106
Aaah!
65
00:03:29,709 --> 00:03:31,154
- Ohh!
- Ow!
66
00:03:31,178 --> 00:03:33,779
- Ow!
- Ooh!
67
00:03:33,881 --> 00:03:35,480
Aah!
68
00:03:47,294 --> 00:03:50,362
It certainly is an
intriguing question.
69
00:03:50,464 --> 00:03:52,164
Where did we come from?
70
00:03:52,266 --> 00:03:54,032
Who created us?
71
00:03:54,134 --> 00:03:56,434
What is our purpose?
72
00:03:56,537 --> 00:03:58,603
Why are we here?
73
00:03:58,705 --> 00:04:01,639
To feed me! Let's
go, I'm starving.
74
00:04:01,741 --> 00:04:04,242
You're the one who
asked in the first place.
75
00:04:04,344 --> 00:04:06,478
Does it bother you no
one knows the answers?
76
00:04:06,580 --> 00:04:09,047
It bothers me I'm not eating!
77
00:04:09,149 --> 00:04:11,749
Hi, Mom. Hi, Baby.
78
00:04:11,851 --> 00:04:13,418
Charlene, what are
you doing home?
79
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,800
Oh, Robbie brought up those
weird questions at school.
80
00:04:16,890 --> 00:04:19,925
- Everybody was kind of freaked.
- Did anyone have any answers?
81
00:04:20,027 --> 00:04:22,694
No. They just panicked
and shut down the school.
82
00:04:22,796 --> 00:04:24,173
- Oh.
- Which would be great,
83
00:04:24,197 --> 00:04:26,075
if it weren't for
this nagging feeling
84
00:04:26,099 --> 00:04:27,810
life is empty and meaningless.
85
00:04:27,834 --> 00:04:30,035
Speaking of empty...
86
00:04:30,137 --> 00:04:33,604
Everyone's grappling with
questions of existence and meaning.
87
00:04:33,706 --> 00:04:35,784
What an exciting
time to be alive.
88
00:04:35,808 --> 00:04:38,254
Shoot me, Fran! End the pain!
89
00:04:38,278 --> 00:04:41,079
My brain hurts from
all these questions.
90
00:04:41,181 --> 00:04:45,450
Oh, my. I'm afraid this
is all too much for us.
91
00:04:45,552 --> 00:04:48,320
If only there were some
way to stop all this thinking...
92
00:04:48,422 --> 00:04:50,622
just for a half hour or so.
93
00:04:50,724 --> 00:04:54,025
It's T-G-Y-W-A on ABC.
94
00:04:54,127 --> 00:04:57,996
- And now back to,
Livin in a House.
- Hey.
95
00:04:58,098 --> 00:05:00,932
Honey, the Buttersons are
coming over in two minutes,
96
00:05:01,034 --> 00:05:02,701
and I can't find the roast.
97
00:05:02,803 --> 00:05:06,370
Maybe it smelled your
kumquat-strudel surprise and ran away.
98
00:05:06,472 --> 00:05:08,740
Oh!
99
00:05:08,842 --> 00:05:11,576
Danny, do you know
where the roast is?
100
00:05:11,678 --> 00:05:15,346
Hey, don't look at
me. I'm no roast-rustler.
101
00:05:18,585 --> 00:05:20,665
No more pesky
thoughts in this little head.
102
00:05:20,754 --> 00:05:23,899
It's like being wrapped in
a warm blanket of cheese.
103
00:05:23,923 --> 00:05:26,724
We interrupt this to
bring you a special report.
104
00:05:26,826 --> 00:05:30,195
Here is DNN's news
correspondent, Howard Handupme.
105
00:05:30,297 --> 00:05:32,697
The nation is gripped
by panic this afternoon
106
00:05:32,799 --> 00:05:36,468
as dinosaurs everywhere
desert factories and classrooms
107
00:05:36,570 --> 00:05:39,737
to wrestle with never-before-asked
questions of existence.
108
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,474
Why are we here?
Where did we come from?
109
00:05:42,575 --> 00:05:44,135
What is the meaning of life?
110
00:05:44,211 --> 00:05:47,012
Why... Why am I sitting
behind this phony desk,
111
00:05:47,114 --> 00:05:48,813
reading these... these words?
112
00:05:48,915 --> 00:05:51,355
What's... what's the
point of any of this?
113
00:05:57,223 --> 00:06:00,425
Thanks. I needed that.
114
00:06:00,527 --> 00:06:03,928
Sorry. Huh? Uh... this just in.
115
00:06:04,030 --> 00:06:07,198
The Council of Elders has
called an emergency session
116
00:06:07,300 --> 00:06:11,269
to deal with the current crisis
and get Pangaea back to work.
117
00:06:11,371 --> 00:06:14,572
Their first task, find out
who started this whole mess,
118
00:06:14,674 --> 00:06:17,342
and point the finger of blame.
119
00:06:17,444 --> 00:06:19,811
Huh?
120
00:06:19,913 --> 00:06:21,680
Uh-oh.
121
00:06:21,782 --> 00:06:26,818
All cower and grovel, the
Council of Elders is now in session.
122
00:06:28,321 --> 00:06:30,755
Who stands before the court?
123
00:06:30,857 --> 00:06:33,090
Um, this is Miss Eunice Feldman,
124
00:06:33,192 --> 00:06:35,960
and she wants a speed
bump installed on her street.
125
00:06:36,062 --> 00:06:38,430
- Uh...
- No.
126
00:06:38,532 --> 00:06:39,731
My mistake.
127
00:06:39,833 --> 00:06:43,234
This is the Sinclair party,
and they are charged with,
128
00:06:43,336 --> 00:06:44,936
"tearing asunder
129
00:06:45,038 --> 00:06:46,605
the very social fabric
130
00:06:46,707 --> 00:06:48,539
of all Pangaea!"
131
00:06:48,641 --> 00:06:51,008
We'd be interested
in the speed bumps.
132
00:06:52,579 --> 00:06:55,146
- If there's time.
- Silence!
133
00:06:55,248 --> 00:06:59,384
Because of the vexing and
unwelcome questions of this small child,
134
00:06:59,486 --> 00:07:01,686
the economy is ruined.
135
00:07:01,788 --> 00:07:04,389
The government is on
the verge of collapse.
136
00:07:04,491 --> 00:07:07,392
And chaos reigns in the streets.
137
00:07:07,494 --> 00:07:10,662
- Say you're sorry.
- I'm sorry.
138
00:07:10,764 --> 00:07:12,797
- We're outta here.
- Stop!
139
00:07:12,899 --> 00:07:15,867
The child must
pay for his crime.
140
00:07:15,969 --> 00:07:19,003
- Why?
- Because that is justice.
141
00:07:19,106 --> 00:07:22,740
- What's justice?
- Well, justice
is a system of laws,
142
00:07:22,843 --> 00:07:26,911
and rules that dinosaurs
have formulated to live by.
143
00:07:27,013 --> 00:07:30,315
- Why?
- He's doing it again.
144
00:07:30,417 --> 00:07:33,418
Now you see what I'm up against?
145
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:34,686
Enough!
146
00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:37,322
- I hereby sentence you...
- Wait!
147
00:07:37,424 --> 00:07:39,435
What good does it
do to punish the baby?
148
00:07:39,459 --> 00:07:42,827
The questions he asked are out
there, everybody's asking them.
149
00:07:42,929 --> 00:07:46,831
Then, uh... we'll
punish everybody!
150
00:07:46,933 --> 00:07:49,946
What if we were to gather
the greatest minds in Pangaea?
151
00:07:49,970 --> 00:07:53,538
An open forum, talk about where
we came from, why we're here.
152
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,439
Hmm. You mean...
153
00:07:55,541 --> 00:07:58,576
actually try to
answer the questions?
154
00:07:58,678 --> 00:08:02,113
Oh, why, that's it! We'll
give them answers.
155
00:08:02,215 --> 00:08:05,350
Quick, simple answers
that will calm everyone down
156
00:08:05,452 --> 00:08:07,330
and send them back to work.
157
00:08:07,354 --> 00:08:08,820
You're missing the point.
158
00:08:08,922 --> 00:08:11,022
But, we must make
sure in advance
159
00:08:11,124 --> 00:08:13,291
that the answers are so simple
160
00:08:13,393 --> 00:08:15,260
everyone can understand them,
161
00:08:15,362 --> 00:08:18,029
even the most
thick-skulled simpleton.
162
00:08:18,131 --> 00:08:20,231
Then, let us take no chances.
163
00:08:20,333 --> 00:08:25,536
Consult the public records book to
find the biggest boob in all the land.
164
00:08:25,638 --> 00:08:26,804
Biggest boob, um...
165
00:08:26,906 --> 00:08:29,173
biggest bar, biggest bulb, um...
166
00:08:29,276 --> 00:08:33,511
biggest boob.
Summon Earl Sinclair!
167
00:08:33,614 --> 00:08:35,046
Oh!
168
00:08:37,117 --> 00:08:40,151
Oh, my. What a coincidence.
169
00:08:40,253 --> 00:08:43,354
You hear, son? The biggest.
170
00:08:45,926 --> 00:08:49,494
Let us now hear from
the first philosopher.
171
00:08:50,764 --> 00:08:53,798
What is the answer to
the meaning of existence?
172
00:08:53,900 --> 00:08:56,212
I am believing
that all life sprang
173
00:08:56,236 --> 00:08:59,070
from the glistening
dewdrop on the nose of a frog
174
00:08:59,172 --> 00:09:01,806
as it leapt from
the celestial lily pad
175
00:09:01,908 --> 00:09:04,743
in the enormous pond of time.
176
00:09:04,845 --> 00:09:07,145
- I am lost.
- Thank you.
177
00:09:07,247 --> 00:09:09,113
Next.
178
00:09:09,215 --> 00:09:11,349
I believe the reason
we are here on Earth
179
00:09:11,451 --> 00:09:16,087
is to spread charity and
goodwill among all dinosaurs.
180
00:09:16,189 --> 00:09:18,823
For only through good
works and sacrifice
181
00:09:18,925 --> 00:09:21,726
can we find peace
and a sense of purpose.
182
00:09:21,828 --> 00:09:26,998
And finally come to know why we've
been given this blessed gift of life.
183
00:09:27,100 --> 00:09:30,835
- Ah, that's beautiful.
- Yes. Truly a guide to life.
184
00:09:30,937 --> 00:09:33,771
- Too much work.
- Doesn't have a hat.
185
00:09:33,873 --> 00:09:35,907
- Yeah.
- Next!
186
00:09:36,009 --> 00:09:37,809
OK. Picture this.
187
00:09:37,911 --> 00:09:40,345
A giant, magic flying potato
188
00:09:40,447 --> 00:09:43,681
swoops down, makes
a few magical gestures,
189
00:09:43,783 --> 00:09:46,217
bing, bang, boom, universe!
190
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,353
Huh? So, how do
you love it so far?
191
00:09:48,455 --> 00:09:50,755
- Uh...
- A potato?
192
00:09:50,857 --> 00:09:53,758
- That doesn't explain anything.
- - Wait a minute.
193
00:09:53,860 --> 00:09:57,294
Are you talking
about a baked potato?
194
00:09:57,397 --> 00:10:01,332
Sure, sure. You know, sour
cream, chives, bacon bits, whatever.
195
00:10:01,434 --> 00:10:03,001
Slathered in butter?
196
00:10:03,103 --> 00:10:05,169
Look, look, the
idiot's buying it.
197
00:10:05,272 --> 00:10:07,037
I think we may be
on to something here.
198
00:10:07,140 --> 00:10:10,341
Yes, potatoes are very popular.
199
00:10:10,443 --> 00:10:13,578
They're a tasty
treat everyone likes.
200
00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:15,179
From there,
201
00:10:15,282 --> 00:10:18,949
it's just a hop, skip
and a jump to worship.
202
00:10:19,051 --> 00:10:20,485
- Ah.
- Wait, I got more.
203
00:10:20,587 --> 00:10:23,220
Now, the potatoes'
roots, they run deep, right?
204
00:10:23,323 --> 00:10:25,657
And they got a million eyes...
205
00:10:25,759 --> 00:10:28,025
Fine, fine. I'm sure
it's a very colorful story.
206
00:10:28,127 --> 00:10:30,395
- We'll take it from here.
- Wait a minute.
207
00:10:30,497 --> 00:10:31,774
We only heard from three guys.
208
00:10:31,798 --> 00:10:33,876
There's 100 more
waiting out there.
209
00:10:33,900 --> 00:10:37,402
- We should hear
what they have to say.
- Oh, sure, sure, sure.
210
00:10:37,504 --> 00:10:40,337
You listen to every suggestion,
create a balanced synthesis
211
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,307
that incorporates a wide
spectrum of belief systems.
212
00:10:43,410 --> 00:10:46,644
But, it's almost lunchtime
and I'm getting cranky.
213
00:10:46,747 --> 00:10:50,348
You're gonna decide the great
issues of the day 'cause you're hungry?
214
00:10:50,450 --> 00:10:52,317
I only had a
muffin for breakfast.
215
00:10:52,419 --> 00:10:53,918
It's decided.
216
00:10:54,020 --> 00:10:56,754
Potato-ism is the
source of all answers
217
00:10:56,856 --> 00:10:58,656
to the great questions of life.
218
00:10:58,758 --> 00:11:01,926
We'll iron out all the
specifics after lunch.
219
00:11:02,028 --> 00:11:03,161
Lunch.
220
00:11:03,263 --> 00:11:05,729
But, you...
221
00:11:07,700 --> 00:11:10,701
The Pangaean Council of
Elders is happy to announce
222
00:11:10,803 --> 00:11:12,483
that after an exhaustive search
223
00:11:12,539 --> 00:11:14,179
the answers to all questions
224
00:11:14,274 --> 00:11:16,574
relating to the meaning
of life have been found.
225
00:11:16,676 --> 00:11:21,479
Please have a pen or pencil ready to
copy down the following information.
226
00:11:21,581 --> 00:11:23,848
Question number one.
227
00:11:23,950 --> 00:11:25,482
Where did we come from?
228
00:11:25,584 --> 00:11:27,584
Dinosaurs and all living things
229
00:11:27,653 --> 00:11:29,298
were created by
the Great Potato,
230
00:11:29,322 --> 00:11:32,022
an omnipotent,
all-knowing starchy tuber
231
00:11:32,125 --> 00:11:33,558
who rules the universe.
232
00:11:33,660 --> 00:11:36,528
What is the nature of dinosaurs?
233
00:11:36,630 --> 00:11:39,063
Each dinosaur is
like a single potato,
234
00:11:39,166 --> 00:11:42,867
springing forth from the earth
with eyes to see the world around it
235
00:11:42,969 --> 00:11:44,502
and lots of potassium.
236
00:11:44,604 --> 00:11:46,670
- How do you spell potassium.
- P-O-T-A...
237
00:11:46,773 --> 00:11:48,472
Oh, forget it.
238
00:11:48,574 --> 00:11:50,452
What is our purpose
on this earth?
239
00:11:50,476 --> 00:11:52,911
Our purpose is to
serve the Great Potato
240
00:11:53,013 --> 00:11:56,514
by giving our troubled,
questioning minds a rest.
241
00:11:56,616 --> 00:11:58,650
Confident that the
Great Book of Potato
242
00:11:58,751 --> 00:12:01,886
will provide all the
answers we need.
243
00:12:01,988 --> 00:12:03,555
Potato-ism.
244
00:12:03,657 --> 00:12:05,623
Now get back to work.
245
00:12:05,725 --> 00:12:09,593
What a joke! Do they believe we'd be
stupid enough to fall for this garbage?
246
00:12:09,695 --> 00:12:11,562
Hard to say, son. I
gotta get back to work.
247
00:12:11,664 --> 00:12:13,998
I gotta get back to school.
248
00:12:14,100 --> 00:12:15,366
Mom?
249
00:12:15,468 --> 00:12:17,201
I have to say it's reassuring
250
00:12:17,303 --> 00:12:20,204
to have answers to
such disturbing questions.
251
00:12:20,306 --> 00:12:23,007
Don't you care where
the answers came from?
252
00:12:23,109 --> 00:12:26,644
Sometimes it's better to have
some answers than no answers at all.
253
00:12:26,746 --> 00:12:29,046
Besides, what harm could it do?
254
00:12:29,148 --> 00:12:32,049
I realize we've all just been
introduced to Potato-ism
255
00:12:32,151 --> 00:12:35,452
- and many of you
have questions.
- Yeah, you're darn right.
256
00:12:35,555 --> 00:12:37,455
And I can think of no
more appropriate forum
257
00:12:37,557 --> 00:12:40,024
to scrutinize this new ideology
258
00:12:40,126 --> 00:12:42,226
than right here
in science class,
259
00:12:42,328 --> 00:12:44,762
where the quest for
truth is paramount.
260
00:12:44,864 --> 00:12:46,074
Yes, finally.
261
00:12:46,098 --> 00:12:47,865
That quest is made much easier
262
00:12:47,967 --> 00:12:50,601
with this handy index
to all life's answers
263
00:12:50,703 --> 00:12:52,569
from the Great Book of Potato.
264
00:12:52,671 --> 00:12:56,908
- What?
- Is there a problem?
265
00:12:57,010 --> 00:13:01,045
This is science class, but
there's nothing scientific about it.
266
00:13:01,147 --> 00:13:03,559
Course there is. We have
beakers, Bunsen burners,
267
00:13:03,583 --> 00:13:05,883
gross, squiggly
things floating in jars.
268
00:13:05,985 --> 00:13:09,465
Don't you realize what will
happen if we stop asking questions
269
00:13:09,489 --> 00:13:11,849
and rely on that
book to rule our lives?
270
00:13:11,924 --> 00:13:15,960
No. But the answer
is on page 476.
271
00:13:16,062 --> 00:13:18,596
Yeah, well, forget
it. I'm not buying this.
272
00:13:18,698 --> 00:13:20,665
Then, Mr. Sinclair,
273
00:13:20,767 --> 00:13:24,101
I'm afraid there's only
one thing left for me to do.
274
00:13:24,203 --> 00:13:26,737
Let's see... "The
Loss of a Loved One,"
275
00:13:26,839 --> 00:13:29,874
"Marital Strife," "Radial
Tire Maintenance?"
276
00:13:29,976 --> 00:13:32,644
A-ha. Here it is, "Refusal
to Accept Potato-ism."
277
00:13:32,745 --> 00:13:36,681
Robert Sinclair, you are
hereby expelled from high school
278
00:13:36,783 --> 00:13:39,016
and outcast from society.
279
00:13:39,118 --> 00:13:42,520
Your life will now spiral
downward into oblivion.
280
00:13:42,622 --> 00:13:46,191
We will now stand and recite
the Pledge of Potato-ism.
281
00:13:46,293 --> 00:13:48,226
Yeah, right.
282
00:13:49,996 --> 00:13:53,331
- Made it home just in time.
- Oh, yes. It's the hour
of the Potato.
283
00:13:53,433 --> 00:13:56,334
- Yep. Where's Robbie?
- He hasn't come home yet.
284
00:13:56,436 --> 00:13:57,734
Oh! Shh! It's on.
285
00:13:57,837 --> 00:14:00,071
Good evening, fellow Pangaeans.
286
00:14:00,173 --> 00:14:02,473
All hail the Great Potato.
287
00:14:02,575 --> 00:14:04,576
Hail the Great Potato.
288
00:14:04,678 --> 00:14:06,410
I'm sick of potatoes.
289
00:14:06,512 --> 00:14:10,281
By now, I trust you've all
welcomed Potato-ism into your lives
290
00:14:10,383 --> 00:14:12,783
and have found
comfort in its answers.
291
00:14:12,885 --> 00:14:16,654
Well, we, your
government/religious leaders
292
00:14:16,756 --> 00:14:19,090
would like to simplify
your life even further.
293
00:14:19,192 --> 00:14:23,227
Starting tonight, we'll not only provide
answers to questions you've raised,
294
00:14:23,329 --> 00:14:26,697
but, also answer questions
you haven't even thought of.
295
00:14:26,799 --> 00:14:28,265
Life keeps getting better.
296
00:14:28,367 --> 00:14:32,003
"Should I work late, even
though I'm not getting paid for it?"
297
00:14:32,105 --> 00:14:36,273
- The answer is, "Yes, you should.
- " - Oh.
298
00:14:36,375 --> 00:14:39,643
"May I send the government
extra money on my income tax?"
299
00:14:39,746 --> 00:14:43,147
The answer is, "Yes,
as much as possible."
300
00:14:43,249 --> 00:14:45,315
Earl, should I make
rice or stuffing?
301
00:14:45,418 --> 00:14:48,085
The answer is, "Stuffing."
302
00:14:48,187 --> 00:14:49,265
They're good.
303
00:14:49,289 --> 00:14:51,055
They're brainwashing you.
304
00:14:51,157 --> 00:14:52,589
Robbie, where have you been?
305
00:14:52,692 --> 00:14:55,860
Spiraling downward
into oblivion.
306
00:14:55,962 --> 00:14:57,394
"Dear Mr. and Mrs. Sinclair
307
00:14:57,496 --> 00:15:00,198
your son Robert was
expelled from school today
308
00:15:00,300 --> 00:15:02,077
for rejecting all known belief
309
00:15:02,101 --> 00:15:05,236
and threatening to obliterate
the foundations of social order!"
310
00:15:05,338 --> 00:15:07,938
Again? What is it with you?
311
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,808
- How could you?
- Don't you see
what they're doing?
312
00:15:10,910 --> 00:15:14,145
They're making all this Potato
stuff up. This is not the truth.
313
00:15:14,247 --> 00:15:17,181
They're just feeding you
easy answers to pacify you.
314
00:15:17,283 --> 00:15:19,450
That way they can
control your lives.
315
00:15:19,552 --> 00:15:21,485
Yeah, well it's about time!
316
00:15:21,587 --> 00:15:23,821
Our lives could use
a little controlling
317
00:15:23,923 --> 00:15:27,124
by a higher, omniscient,
more knowledgeable source.
318
00:15:27,226 --> 00:15:28,759
A potato?!
319
00:15:28,861 --> 00:15:32,462
Robbie, I realize this isn't
an easy adjustment for you.
320
00:15:32,565 --> 00:15:34,899
A situation like this
calls for a dose of
321
00:15:35,001 --> 00:15:36,901
time-tested parental advice.
322
00:15:37,003 --> 00:15:40,238
- I'll get the book.
- Oh, yeah. That's it,
run to the book.
323
00:15:40,340 --> 00:15:42,106
Don't bother
thinking on your own.
324
00:15:42,208 --> 00:15:44,842
Look up all the answers
to all your problems in life.
325
00:15:44,944 --> 00:15:46,678
Jeez.
326
00:15:48,481 --> 00:15:50,881
Hey, you. Are you alienated?
327
00:15:50,983 --> 00:15:53,951
Do your maverick views make
you feel like the only sane voice
328
00:15:54,053 --> 00:15:55,419
in a world gone mad?
329
00:15:55,522 --> 00:15:58,689
- Yeah.
- You're wrong. Embrace Potato-ism.
330
00:15:58,792 --> 00:16:01,626
- Be like everybody else.
- Oh, brother.
331
00:16:01,728 --> 00:16:03,894
Jeez.
332
00:16:05,432 --> 00:16:06,575
- Son?
- What?
333
00:16:06,599 --> 00:16:07,765
Can we have a little chat?
334
00:16:07,867 --> 00:16:10,334
You know,
father-to-social outcast?
335
00:16:10,436 --> 00:16:13,838
If you're gonna tell me how a
vegetable can improve my life, forget it.
336
00:16:13,940 --> 00:16:15,818
Robbie, we're all very upset.
337
00:16:15,842 --> 00:16:18,954
But, if we're gonna work our
problems out, we do it as a family.
338
00:16:18,978 --> 00:16:21,378
- Yep. So we called
the Potato Hotline.
- Hmm?
339
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,415
They're sending counselors to
help guide you through this passage.
340
00:16:31,023 --> 00:16:33,491
- Good afternoon, citizens.
- Hail the Potato.
341
00:16:33,593 --> 00:16:35,126
Hail.
342
00:16:35,228 --> 00:16:38,695
Son, we understand you're
finding the transition to Potato-ism
343
00:16:38,798 --> 00:16:40,331
fraught with difficulty.
344
00:16:40,433 --> 00:16:42,912
It can be an anxious
and puzzling time.
345
00:16:42,936 --> 00:16:44,868
We're here to help.
346
00:16:44,971 --> 00:16:47,305
Ow! Hey! Get your hands off me.
347
00:16:47,407 --> 00:16:50,074
Earl, they're hurting him.
Shouldn't we stop them?
348
00:16:50,176 --> 00:16:52,087
The answer's no,
lady. Look it up.
349
00:16:52,111 --> 00:16:54,979
Help, Mom, Dad. Don't
you see what's happening?
350
00:16:57,783 --> 00:17:00,051
There you go. No more
troubling questions.
351
00:17:00,153 --> 00:17:02,753
- Hail the Potato.
- Hail.
352
00:17:02,855 --> 00:17:05,956
Potato.
353
00:17:06,058 --> 00:17:08,292
Oh...
354
00:17:09,461 --> 00:17:11,528
Earl, I think we made a mistake.
355
00:17:11,630 --> 00:17:14,231
Well, I'm sure
it's all for the best.
356
00:17:14,333 --> 00:17:15,632
Hang on in there, son.
357
00:17:15,735 --> 00:17:18,180
Don't worry. Someday
we're gonna look back on this
358
00:17:18,204 --> 00:17:20,637
and have a hearty laugh.
359
00:17:23,876 --> 00:17:26,643
Programs! Get your programs!
360
00:17:26,746 --> 00:17:29,213
Complete sadistic...
361
00:17:29,315 --> 00:17:31,716
Burn, baby.
362
00:17:34,521 --> 00:17:36,954
My fellow Pangaeans, welcome.
363
00:17:37,056 --> 00:17:39,090
And hail the Great Potato!
364
00:17:39,192 --> 00:17:41,425
Hail the Great Potato!
365
00:17:41,527 --> 00:17:43,760
It's just wonderful
to be here tonight,
366
00:17:43,863 --> 00:17:46,596
with all of you for this
joyous celebration of song,
367
00:17:46,699 --> 00:17:49,266
merriment and
sacrificial burning.
368
00:17:50,602 --> 00:17:54,238
And could you have asked
for better weather, huh?
369
00:17:58,511 --> 00:18:00,744
What's going on?
370
00:18:00,847 --> 00:18:03,547
- That's Robbie!
- Earl, they're going
to burn him!
371
00:18:03,649 --> 00:18:06,650
Um... well, I'm sure
it's all just a scare tactic.
372
00:18:06,752 --> 00:18:08,032
Well, it's working.
373
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:11,989
Robert Sinclair, you are
hereby charged with the act
374
00:18:12,091 --> 00:18:16,126
of willfully undermining the
belief system we have held sacred
375
00:18:16,228 --> 00:18:19,830
since the beginning
of... uh, well, this week.
376
00:18:19,932 --> 00:18:22,333
But I only asked a question.
377
00:18:22,435 --> 00:18:24,569
Burn him!
378
00:18:24,671 --> 00:18:28,238
Before we torch
this heathen agitator,
379
00:18:28,340 --> 00:18:32,310
and watch his wretched
corpse snap and crackle
380
00:18:32,412 --> 00:18:34,811
in the fires of goodness...
381
00:18:34,913 --> 00:18:37,214
will the owner of a
brown station wagon
382
00:18:37,316 --> 00:18:39,850
please report to the loch,
you're blocking an exit.
383
00:18:39,952 --> 00:18:43,520
Oh, my gosh! Daddy,
you've got to do something.
384
00:18:43,622 --> 00:18:46,757
Yeah, I've gotta move the
car. What a day I'm having.
385
00:18:46,859 --> 00:18:49,460
Earl, that's our son up there.
386
00:18:49,562 --> 00:18:51,829
Sweetheart, I know
it looks pretty bad,
387
00:18:51,931 --> 00:18:55,199
but I'm sure something in the
Book of Potato explains all this.
388
00:18:55,301 --> 00:18:58,747
What could the book possibly
say to justify what they're doing?
389
00:18:58,771 --> 00:19:00,983
Um, here, take a look.
390
00:19:01,007 --> 00:19:04,341
All righty, if everyone
would kindly grab a torch
391
00:19:04,443 --> 00:19:07,645
and mosey on over to the
firepit area, we can get started.
392
00:19:07,747 --> 00:19:10,581
- Hurry!
- It is gotta be
in here somewhere.
393
00:19:10,683 --> 00:19:14,752
And you kids with the marshmallows,
step right on up to the front, OK?
394
00:19:14,854 --> 00:19:17,021
Any last words, heretic?
395
00:19:17,123 --> 00:19:20,024
I take it all back
and I'm really sorry?
396
00:19:20,126 --> 00:19:23,360
You're also kindling.
Light the fire!
397
00:19:24,763 --> 00:19:26,163
Earl, hurry up!
398
00:19:26,265 --> 00:19:27,831
It doesn't say!
399
00:19:27,933 --> 00:19:30,434
I guess this book doesn't
have all the answers.
400
00:19:32,605 --> 00:19:34,404
What did you say?
401
00:19:34,506 --> 00:19:36,574
Uh-oh.
402
00:19:36,676 --> 00:19:39,042
Hail to the Potato, Dad?
403
00:19:39,144 --> 00:19:41,245
- Point taken.
- Mmm.
404
00:19:41,347 --> 00:19:45,883
Burn 'em!
405
00:19:45,985 --> 00:19:49,654
The Potato demands that
those who question its glory
406
00:19:49,756 --> 00:19:52,857
be roasted to a golden brown.
407
00:19:53,993 --> 00:19:56,860
Light the ceremonial fires!
408
00:19:58,431 --> 00:20:00,631
Right, Chief.
409
00:20:00,733 --> 00:20:03,434
Oh, oh, don't.
410
00:20:06,072 --> 00:20:08,884
You see, Dad? No one
cares about searching for truth.
411
00:20:08,908 --> 00:20:10,819
They only want easy answers.
412
00:20:10,843 --> 00:20:13,143
I guess easy answers
aren't always the best ones.
413
00:20:13,245 --> 00:20:16,480
- Yeah.
- Oh, marshmallow s'mores.
414
00:20:17,750 --> 00:20:19,416
Please, can't anyone stop this?
415
00:20:19,518 --> 00:20:21,385
Goodbye, son.
416
00:20:21,487 --> 00:20:25,622
Nothing on earth can alter
the sacred will of the Po-ta-to!
417
00:20:25,724 --> 00:20:28,392
Yeah!
418
00:20:38,604 --> 00:20:40,615
The fire! It's gone out!
419
00:20:40,639 --> 00:20:43,440
Robbie.
420
00:20:44,176 --> 00:20:46,110
- Hey.
- Hey, the wind.
421
00:20:46,212 --> 00:20:49,380
- Where did it come from?
- It blew out the fire.
422
00:20:49,482 --> 00:20:53,350
But... he said the fire
was the will of the Potato.
423
00:20:53,452 --> 00:20:56,320
Yeah, how could the
Potato allow that to happen?
424
00:20:56,422 --> 00:20:58,989
Uh, well, uh...
425
00:20:59,091 --> 00:21:01,859
it's not for us to
try to understand
426
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,428
the mysterious
ways of the Potato.
427
00:21:04,530 --> 00:21:07,898
Uh... for, uh, for its
plan is beyond the ken
428
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,034
of, uh, mere mortals.
429
00:21:10,136 --> 00:21:12,102
- You're making this up!
- Yeah!
430
00:21:12,204 --> 00:21:14,739
- Yeah, you don't have a clue!
- No!
431
00:21:14,841 --> 00:21:16,640
Yeah, we need answers.
432
00:21:16,742 --> 00:21:19,020
You're right, we
all need answers.
433
00:21:19,044 --> 00:21:22,223
But we can't make the mistake
of accepting the first answer
434
00:21:22,247 --> 00:21:25,515
that's handed to us
just because it's there.
435
00:21:25,617 --> 00:21:27,617
But we liked that
because it was easy.
436
00:21:27,719 --> 00:21:30,821
But it turned out to
be a fraud, didn't it?
437
00:21:30,923 --> 00:21:32,489
Well, yes.
438
00:21:32,591 --> 00:21:34,224
What have you learned?
439
00:21:34,326 --> 00:21:37,394
Well, uh... we have
to explore and think,
440
00:21:37,496 --> 00:21:41,631
and after a personal, spiritual quest
decide the answers for ourselves.
441
00:21:41,733 --> 00:21:43,734
- Yes.
- Ah. And then...
442
00:21:43,836 --> 00:21:46,136
- kill everyone
who disagrees.
- Yes!
443
00:21:46,239 --> 00:21:51,007
No! Everyone must be allowed to
believe what they want to believe.
444
00:21:51,109 --> 00:21:52,509
Ah. You know,
445
00:21:52,612 --> 00:21:54,911
I always sort of
believed that the universe
446
00:21:55,013 --> 00:21:58,882
was coughed up by the
Great Congested Warthog.
447
00:21:58,984 --> 00:22:01,652
- Huh?
- That's... interesting.
448
00:22:01,754 --> 00:22:04,588
And you're entitled
to that... belief.
449
00:22:04,690 --> 00:22:06,723
Um, what if all life
450
00:22:06,825 --> 00:22:11,128
were forked out of the flaky
crust of steaming chicken pot pie?
451
00:22:11,230 --> 00:22:14,097
Think they'll ever get
around to unchaining us?
452
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,800
Yeah. Yeah, if they ever
figure out the meaning of life.
453
00:22:18,437 --> 00:22:21,138
Well, it's a beautiful night.
454
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,341
Oh, yeah, it sure is.
Look at those stars.
455
00:22:24,443 --> 00:22:26,210
Yeah.
456
00:22:26,312 --> 00:22:28,913
Dad, where do you
think the stars come from?
457
00:22:29,015 --> 00:22:31,415
I've never thought
about it before, son.
458
00:22:32,351 --> 00:22:34,785
But now I think I will.
