[0:32]A Ken in need is a friend indeed.
[0:37]There should be a law against giving us this much homework. The professor should invent a brain machine. All we'd have to do is program a thinking cap with everything we need to know and we just put it on. The professor's good, but he's not that good. Maybe if we concentrate, we could channel our energy into the pens and they'll do the work. If only. That's a lot of books. You're lucky. It must be exciting to have all that homework. Lucky. Are you feeling okay? I don't want that kind of luck. I didn't realize. Why didn't my heart go flutters when this happened today? Don't let him get to you, Bubbles. Ken doesn't know what it's like to have all this homework, because he was home-schooled. It's not my fault I have a higher than average IQ.
[1:21]I actually like to study, so I finished every grade and even got a Ph.D. Ph.D. Indeed. Hey, hey! Ken, Ken! We love the Ken with Ken degree! Give me a P, give me an H, and give me a D! Hey, now you're just making fun of me!
[1:45]Thank you! Yes, it's true. From a real life genius. No wonder he's lacking in the friend's department.
[1:59]I don't have any friends because I was home-schooled. I think you're missing out on something, Ken. School isn't only about books and learning. It's also about the people you meet. You get to make all kinds of friends. And you get to work on cool projects together. Of course sometimes you do get into arguments. It's a place where everyone grows up together. That's what school's all about. I see. I could make friends by impressing people with my algebra knowledge. Or my experiments. Oh, even better, my debating skills. Oh, yeah, I'm sure they'd love that.
[2:37]If we call the school now, you could get started tomorrow. Tomorrow? Right, you have to stay home for your play date with all your friends. What were we thinking? You're wrong, just because I'm unsure doesn't mean I don't want to go. Well, Ken, is that a yes or no? Okay, I'll give it a try. I'm going to make friends. You'll see.
[3:00]That uniform really suits you, Ken. Since you're going off to school, I took the liberty of inventing a lunch-making machine. That one's turkey sandwich, and here's a PB and J, a salami sandwich, a cheese sandwich, three kinds of yogurt, a beef stew, a casserole, and a thermos of soup. Uh, Dad, I don't think I can eat all this. It's too much food. You might be right. I suppose I could switch the machine to a lower setting. Sorry, but this packed lunch stuff is all rather new to me. Well, here I go. You show them how it's done, my boy. Thanks, Dad. I'll see you after school. Bye. Now, Ken, remember to be polite to your teachers and don't go showing off. You worry too much, Dad. Oh, and make sure you come straight home after school, okay? Of course I would. That's it, then. Maybe for me, but what about you? Don't forget your chores today. I know, I'll do them. Okay. Goodbye for real this time. Good luck, Ken. Have a great day. Hope it goes well. Now what?
[4:03]Class, today we have a brand new student. And his name is Ken. It is my very great pleasure to make your acquaintance. Ken, why don't you sit over there? Okay, thanks, Miss.
[4:24]My name's Casey, and I'm going to be a superhero. Hi there.
[4:31]Casey, isn't that Blossom's little sister's name?
[4:46]Hey, you!
[4:49]Ken, are you okay? You don't want to be the class telltale, do you? I guess not. Sorry, Miss, it's nothing. All right, then.
[5:10]I wonder how Ken's doing on his first day. He might be in the same class as my sister. Lucky him.
[5:22]This is too easy. Blossom's kid sister looks like she likes to study. Unlike Blossom.
[5:35]Casey, maybe you can do one of these problems if you're not too busy. Oh, okay. You too, please, Ken. And uh, Joey, can you do the third one? I'm done. See you, Ken. 12 times six. This could be an opportunity to make a friend. The answer is 72.
[6:09]Very good, Casey. You're right. You too, Ken, this is correct. He's more stubborn than Buttercup.
[6:18]You can use the batteries and the little light bulb however you like, but I want each of you to create something interesting, okay?
[6:27]This was supposed to be a robot. Wow, Joey, I'm really impressed.
[6:36]If you flip this switch, the eyes light up. See?
[6:44]Wow, look at that one. It's really cool, too. How did you make this, Ken? Let me explain. The batteries are used not only to create light, but also to propel an electric motor, which I designed.
[6:59]And that's how car works. Understand?
[7:04]Yes, Ken, it's very impressive. No, it's really nothing.
[7:13]Is it true you live in a laboratory? I guess that must seem pretty weird to you guys, but it's true. I live there with my dad. Of course, I knew it. So that means your dad is Professor Utonium. Yeah. We're going outside to play some dodgeball. You want to come, Ken?
[7:36]What exactly does my sister do at the lab? Casey, you coming? Ken, you, too. Come on, let's go, you guys. I think we'll talk about this later.
[7:51]Yes, he really isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer. As you can see from this footage, Mojo Jojo is simply too primitive to beat the Powerpuff Girls. Ouch! That hurt! He's going to feel that one in the morning. Well, Bob, he is just a monkey. It's not like he won the genius award at school. So what? I do not need any awards. Everyone knows that Mojo is a genius. You only have to look at the size of my head. It is a giant head full of ideas about how to take over the world. So, I do deserve an award. The internet will tell Mojo where to get one. It knows everything. Once people can see that Mojo is a genius, the world will be mine, and I will be able to do whatever I want with it, it can even wear a dress. Search. Wait, wait. Here we go. Students win academic awards. I must find this man with the funny mustache. Hey, check it out.
[8:50]Looks like Ken's already made a new friend. Then I guess he doesn't need us anymore. I'm glad to see he's fitting in. I was worried about him. We can check in on him later. Hey, why do they keep throwing the ball at me? I didn't mean to make you look bad in class. I was only trying to help you. You are such a geek. Wow, you guys are totally alike. Like when Galactic Man worked with Johnny Cosmo. You are just like Galactic Man. You're bull-headed and proud. But just like in episode 67, you'll learn that teamwork is the only way to save the day. You'll have no choice but to work together. If not, it'll be like episode 12 when Galactic Man was exiled. You totally made me cry. You made me cry! You're even weirder than the new kid. I'm out of here. Farewell, Galactic Man. But don't forget the surface of the ice planet is harsh and forbidding. You'll need to use every one of your special power moves to survive. Make sure to watch out for the Frost monsters who live in Region 4. They'll try to crush you with white graph. See you, Joey.
[9:54]No one will recognize me in this brilliant disguise. Now all Mojo has to do is find the man with the funny mustache where he can get this special genius award. Then Mojo will be able to take over the world. I wonder what the special genius award looks like. Oh well, I am sure Mojo can find one.
[10:24]Time out. Listen, Joey's really good on offense. So, let's try something new with our defense. He's even geekier at sports. Where could it be? Where would the mustache man put the special genius award?
[10:49]Maybe my award should be a plaque, or a medal, or maybe even a certificate. But what Mojo would really want is a trophy. So... The man with the funny mustache. I have found him. He also has funny eyebrows. And look. This must be the special award they give to geniuses like me. Now Mojo will have just what he needs to prove his superior intellect.
[11:21]I thought this was my office. Excuse me. Are you from the PTA? Yes, that is right. Hey, you've got my trophy. Trophy? What trophy? I do not see any trophy. But I enjoy the PTA meeting. Hey, no running in the halls. It's a tie game, so the next point could be the winner. And since it'll be over soon, I wanted to say no matter what happens, it's been a good game. Yay! Go, Ken! You can do it!
[18:40]Mojo got that. Close, but you're still wrong. What do you mean? Morning, afternoon, and night. It's a way of describing the whole of a person's life. In the morning, you're a baby, crawling on all fours. The afternoon is the bright part of life when you walk tall on two legs. And in the evening, you grow old and walk with a cane. So the answer is... Smelly human? Self-destruct sequence initiated. My robot to self-destruct is wrong.
[19:14]We did it! I thought everybody knew that riddle. Well, Mojo doesn't get out much. That's one more win for the good guys.
[19:28]You're quitting after just one day? Didn't you like it? Well, I already have a Ph.D., remember? And besides, it's Saturday. Oh, we thought today was Friday. Hey, Ken. Are you ready to play? Let's go!
[19:44]See ya. Who's Mr. Popular now? Is it okay if I bring my dog? Sure. So, what are we going to play? How about Monkey in the Middle?
