| - This is the transcript for "Dodge This." Muscle Man: And he was all like, BOOM! Benson: Hey! (eats a wing with sauce and laughs) Listen up, everybody, stop talking! (Benson shushes everybody while everybody lays their eyes on Benson.) Look, I just want to thank everybody for training so hard, we're doing a real good job. And I think we're in great shape for the dodgeball tournament tomorrow. Muscle Man: I'll say. As long as Mordecai keeps throwing them spheres. Mordecai: Ahhhhhhhhhh....... Nahhhhhh............ (Everybody Else): YEAHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Thomas: Yeah, man, that spin move you were doing was crazy. Mordecai: Oh yeah, the Tornado. Rigby: Yeah! The Tornado! Where'd you learn that? You were like WHAM! (Shows a movement of the Tornado.) Hi Five Ghost: Ha ha. It is crazy fast. Muscle Man: One of those Tornados flew by my head, and it was all like,(makes fast wind-swishing sounds. Everybody else laughs hard.) It's true. Benson: Alright, everybody, just simmer down now. We've all been playing great, alright? (Everybody else chatters.) But, if I had to be totally honest here, we could all stand to learn a little something, from, this guy right here. (Touches Mordecai and whispers.) I think you're better than all of these guys here. (eats a wing and twirls his finger) Mordecai: (chuckles) Thanks, man. Skips: Hey, take it easy on those wings, Benson. You might still have a concussion from practice. Benson: No, you're right, you're right. But you know what? I'm just gonna go ahead and say it. I think we have a really good shot of winning the tournament this year. (stands up) Sure we haven't won this thing in 10 years. But this is our year! Benson's Ballerz are gonna win this! So who's with me?! Everyone else: Yeah! Benson: I'm sorry, did you guys just say "Yeah?" Everyone else: YEAH! Benson: Alright, then! Let's do this! Mordecai: Alright, dude. You figure out hoe to throw the right way this time? Rigby: (holding a dodgeball) Hmm! Hmm! I got this! Rignado! (spins) Hee-yah! (throws the dodgeball, and it hits the referee) Referee: Ooohhh! (falls) Rigby: Oooohh! Mordecai: Uhh, still needs work. (runs off) Benson: (approaching Rigby) Rigby! No, no! No tornado! ???: Hey! A little help? Mordecai: Ooooh! (turns around and runs off) Thunder Girl Member: Hey, CJ! Come on! Rigby: You're out! (watches Mordecai run throught the door. Mordecai sighs in the hallway) Dude, what's your deal? Mordecai: CJ is here. Rigby: Are you guys gonna make out and run away from each other again? Mordecai: Dude, quit it! I haven't seen her since we kissed on New Year's Eve and I feel weird around her. Like she still hates me for the whole movie mix-up with Margaret. Rigby: Then just go talk to her about it. Mordecai: No! Ugh, man. I'm not gonna be able to focus with her here. What if she distracts me and I mess up? Rigby: Dude, whatever. Her team is new. They'll probably get eliminated in like, 2 seconds. Mordecai: Yeah, I guess I'll just try to avoid her. Benson: (comes through the door) Come on, you two! The game's about to start. (smiles and points) Benson's Ballerz needs their star player. Referee: Alright, dodgeballers! If you get hit, cross the center line, or an opposing player catches your ball, you're out! First place goes to the last team standing. On your mark, get set, dodgeball! Rigby: We don't stand a chance against these guys. They're using magic! Benson: You're right. Line up behind Skips! (The Guardians of Eternal Youth have their magical dodgeballs ready) Skips, you gotta catch these. We got your back! (The dodgeballs are thrown and Skips catches them as they turn red. Benson and Skips throw them, knocking out the God of Basketball and a wizard player. Mordecai knocks out Death, and soon, it's down to one Guardian and Gary.) Benson: Finish this, Mordecai! CJ: (to her teamates) ...and then I was like, "No, it's cause we want that huge trophy! (laughs with the team) Benson: NOOOO! Gary: Well, Benson, looks like your star player just burnt out. (makes a hissing sound) Benson: Yeah! (gets knocked out by Reginald) Rigby: (catches the dodgeball) Hey, I caught it! (Reginald throws another ball, knocking out Skips but missing Rigby, who is now the only one left.) Benson: No. No. No! (Rigby trembles while Reggie laughs) Reginald: Well, let's get this over with. Referee: You're out! Reginald: Nooooo! (uses magic on the audience, who run aside.) Ballerz: OOOOOOOHHHH! (run to Rigby) Benson: I'm sorry I doubted you, man. (to Mordecai) Mordecai, what happened out there? Mordecai: Uhh.... Rigby: This girl that hates Mordecai is here and it's messin' up his game. (gets punched by Mordecai) Benson: (not surprised) Mordecai, why didn't you say so? Mordecai: It's complicated, okay? Hi Five Ghost: (goes to the team bracket) Hey, we're playing the girls in the final game: The Thunder Girls Mordecai: What?! (watches the team go on the court) Aaaugh! We're playing CJ's team? (puts his head in his hands) Aw, man. I can't do this. I can't do this! Benson: (walks up tto Mordecai) Hey, hey. The only thing we can't do is lose! We already beat The Magical Elements! We've come too far to back down now. TOO FAR! Referee: On your mark get set, dodgeball! Benson: (on sidelines with Fives, Muscle Man, Thomas, Pops and Skips) Ugh! We're dropping like flies! Thunder Girl Member #2: Ugh! They're crushing us! Benson: What is he doing?! Benson: Aaah! I can't take this! Finish her, Mordecai! Finish her so we can win this! Benson: (in slow motion and rage) Finish her! Thunder Girls: (in slow motion) Finish him! CJ: What is this place? IDC #1: Mordecai and CJ, you have been summoned before the IDC. Mordecai: The what? IDC #2: The Intergalactic Dodgeball Councl, duh! IDC #3: The reason that you're here is because you've reached an infinite standoff. And we believe that you're unable to knock each out because you've avoiding your history together. CJ: What?! We're not avoiding our history together. (at Mordecai) I mean, like... Mordecai: Yeah. We don't even have a history together. Well, you know what I mean, right? CJ: (nods) Oh, yeah. We don't even...have a history...together. IDC #4: You're dodging the facts. IDC #2: Yes. Why are you dodging? IDC #3: Let us then view a replay of your history together. CJ: (in scene) Oh, gross. How old are you? (she and Mordecai laugh) Mordecai: (in scene) But it's true! CJ: (in scene) I can't believe this! Are you just playing? (turns into a cloud) Is this a game to you?! CJ: (at IDC) Oh, that history. CJ: (in scene) We can still make the best of this. Mordecai: (in scene) Huh? (they kiss) Mordecai: Alright, look. (sighs) Every time I see CJ, I mess up. I didn't mean to lead her on with the date, or the kiss, but I did. And I understand why she's mad at me. CJ: Wait. I'm not mad at you, Mordecai. I was just embarassed because of the way I took off after the kiss. I honestly thought you were mad at me. Mordecai: Really? CJ: I'm definitely not mad at you. Mordecai: Man. Sometimes I feel so dumb about this kind of stuff. CJ: (laughs) Yeah, me too. Mordecai: Well, you wanna start over, as friends? CJ: Yeah! I'd love to. You know, like, as friends. IDC #2: But what about the kiss?! The kiss! Oh, come on. Did that not mean anything?! CJ: If I'd have known who he was, then I.. Mordecai: Yeah, I would've never, you know... CJ: Oh, no. Totally. Never. IDC #3: All in favor of Mordecai and CJ resuming league play? IDC #2: Ugh! (raises sphere) Fine! But you still have to try to get each other out. IDC #3: Then the matter is settled. You are free to resume league play. Benson: (in slow motion and rage) Finish her! Thunder Girls: (in slow motion) Finish him! Mordecai: You go. CJ: No, you go. Mordecai: No, you go. CJ: Ok. (throws dodgeball at Mordecai's face, which hits him in slow motion) Mordecai: Aaaargh! (falls back) Referee: (blows whistle) The Thunder Girls win! Thunder Girls: Thunder Girls! Thunder Girls! Benson: Noooooooo! This was the Balllerz's year! The Ballerz's year! Mordecai: Hey, good game. CJ: You too. Mordecai: Uh, I'm glad we're friends. CJ: Yeah, I'm glad too. (starts to hi-five Mordecai, but quickly pulls her hand away with a smile) I'm glad that I whooped your butt! Oooooohhh! Mordecai: (scoffs) Yeah, that was pretty good. Pretty good. Skips: There's always next year, Benson. Benson: (sighs) I need a wing real bad. (end of Dodge This)
