Hello, this is Jamie Skyland. I was wondering around some files through here, and I saw this "episode" from a series Evelio wrote (I read it sue me for snooping around) and I found it smart and funny. What was more funny was it was series that didn't give readers what they want. People want Gumball with some girl and a happy ending. This doesn't give it. In fact, it's a series that doesn't any question you would ask about the series. For example, you would ask if Gumball and Carrie would be a thing, or with Penny. Would Darwin be with someone he love for the rest of his life? It doesn't answer it, but it offers "nothing!" The best thing I know for comedy is here. I asked Evelio if he would be okay to put it up. He was okay with it, and now here it is: A show about nothing. Now that's something. Enjoy!

P.S. This isn't the return of EvelioandZgroup. He's not on the site for reasons, so don't start jumping to conclusions.

Season 1 Episode 1: The Girl

Gumball and Darwin were sitting at an empty bunch table. They weren't eating anything, but were among themselves a conversation between each other.

"I don't understand this," Darwin said, confused. "Why the sudden change in everything?"

"It's simple, Darwin," Gumball said. "Everything that's happen to me, has always been due to my instinct, which was wrong. If I want to be with someone, it might not work out. Now, think about this: What if I try something new, like being a new Gumball."

"A new Gumball?...You would be replacing something that would be whiny, irresponsible, moron, shy, caring, and a failure, with someone who is smart, responsible, tough, confident, funny, and womanizing success?"

"Well, if that's your way of not trying to offend me with insults as compliments, then yes, it is."

"But how will you pull it off?"

"I don't know."

At that moment, Gumball looked up and saw someone who looked familiar.

"Hey, Darwin, does she look familiar?" Gumball pointing to the person.

Darwin checked the person out, and she did look familiar. She was Rachel.

"Dude, that's Rachel."

"The girl from the party?"

"Yeah."

"Huh, I always thought her name was Penelope."

Darwin was confused.

"How could you not know her?"

"How could I? No one ever told me her name. You expect me to know who she is, just because of a party? That's like calling someone after a one night stand."

"A one night stand? What's that?"

"I don't know, but it felt right to say. Maybe I'm watching too many sitcoms late at night."

"Maybe you are."

"Hey, why don't we ask her to sit with us."

"Sit with us? Gumball, she's 15 and wouldn't hang out with us!"

"Why not? She kissed you. Remember, vacuum cleaner?"

"Well - "

"Hey, Ramona!" Gumball yelled to Rachel, who turned and saw Gumball.

"Me?" Rachel pointing to herself.

"Yeah, you. Why don't you sit with us?"

Rachel didn't talk, didn't stop, but she walked over to them and sat next to Darwin. They both took quick glances at each other. They quickly put their attention towards Gumball.

"So tell me, Jenny - "

"My name is Rachel."

"I know, but I feel we shouldn't be labeled by our names."

Rachel clarified, a bit confused as well, "So you want to be called by something else instead of the name your mom and dad gave you?"

"Why not?"

"Huh."

"Well, let me ask you this: Why are you here?"

Rachel stood quiet for a moment and looked around.

"Come on," Darwin said. "We're your friends."

"Except me," Gumball said, "I don't know you."

Rachel felt a bit hurt. "But I know your brother."

"No, you don't. You just kissed him on his cheek after he helped you clean up the mess you made at the party - how'd that turn out?"

"Well, I got grounded after they found a hairy mole thing and a monkey in the closet. They were making out, and I got grounded for letting in animals in the house."

"Why does that sound familiar?"

"Maybe they were uninvited people," Darwin said.

"Right," Gumball said. "How could the uninvited guest get to a party, hosted by a 15 year old girl, only to have it be filled with middle school students?"

"Maybe they were Miss. Simian and Principal Brown."

"Could be. After all, they are old and lonely and so desperately hate me and everyone else they come into contact with."

"So, what's your point in all of this?" asked Rachel.

"Nothing," he replied. "Absolutely nothing." Putting both of his arms out there and making it clear of his point: nothing.

"Huh."

"Yeah," Darwin said. "It's his new way of being a new Gumball."

"Is it?"

"No, but he did say he was going to be the opposite of who he was."

"So, Rachel," Gumball said, "why are you here, anyway?"

"Do you really want to know why I'm here, Gumball?"

"No, but it makes interesting conversation and - "

"It's basically you being opposite because you have no interest in me, what so ever."

"Exactly."

"Well, it turned out that I failed the big test, and my parents thought that maybe I wasn't mature enough to go on as a high schooler. They didn't want to put me in special ed - no offense, Darwin." Darwin was already confused as it is. "So they thought they should put me back and see if I can relearn everything I was taught in school."

"All the way to 7th grade?" Gumball asked.

"Actually to the 6th grade, but that's not the point."

"So, you've been demoted 4 years - "

"5 years, actually."

"5 years, then, from school, all because of one party and a big test?"

"Yeah," Rachel said.

"Well, that's strange. Imagine if I was a cartoon show and had fans write me up in dumb scenarios like me fighting against an evil force, or me being in the FBI, or me with someone I barely have any contact, or even things that don't make sense to begin with."

They all thought about it, and, yeah, it was dumb - it is dumb.

"Gumball, but if they were your fans, give them some credit," Darwin said.

"Would you like it if someone wrote a story about you and me as a couple?"

Darwin stood silent for a moment. "Now, that's just crazy."

"I know."

"Hey," Rachel said, "but, that doesn't mean you can hate them."

"What if they put me and you as a couple?" Gumball asked.

Rachel stood silent. "Now, that's just crazy."

"You see what I mean - I can't go around and be someone I'm not."

"Surprisingly you don't," Darwin said.

Gumball turned to him, "What do you mean?"

"Well, you don't stay true to yourself. Right now, you want to be the opposite of who you are, just because."

"Well, there's nothing wrong with it. That would even mean I could go out with any girl, as I please."

Rachel and Darwin started laughing.

"You?" Rachel said. "How would that even happen? Darwin has a better chance of getting the girl he likes than you."

"Oh, is that right?" Gumball said, intimidatingly. "Darwin, who do you like?"

"Uh..."

"Go on, Darwin," Rachel said.

"Yes, Darwin," Gumball said, "'go on, Darwin.'"

"Well...I would have to say Carrie."

"Carrie?" Gumball said, "You don't have anything in common with her."

"Oh, yeah," Darwin said, "like what?"

Gumball made an expression on his face, "She's dead!"

"And?"

"You're a fish!"

"And?"

"The only thing you two have in common is the fact you don't have any bones."

"Do teeth count?"

Gumball did his expression again. "She doesn't even have teeth to begin with."

"No! No, as a bone part. If it does count that we don't have anything in common."

"Come on - "

"Wait a second," Rachel hauled, "What about Penny? You don't have anything in common with her."

"Yeah, so?"

"Why should you go on liking her, thinking you have a better chance than anyone else?"

"I don't. I don't like Penny anymore."

The two were shocked. Darwin didn't expect this. Rachel didn't even expect this, prior to the fact that she saw Gumball and Penny's 2nd kiss attempt, but didn't prevail. She thought he was a dork, but even Penny said he's a dream. How could you argue about young love (beside all the bad examples)?

"What!?" Darwin finally said, after a moment of silence. "Why?"

"Like I said, I have to be opposite. So far, I don't miss her."

"Of course not, she's right across the lunchroom from you," Rachel said, pointing her out, sitting with Carmen, Teri, and Molly.

"Yeah. She's like a thousand light years away," Gumball said, stretching out his arms, which grew tired after being a bit inactive.

"Come on, Gumball," Darwin said. "You still like, like Penny."

"No, I don't."

"Yes, you do."

"No, I don't."

"Yes, you do." Darwin grows a bit agitated.

"No, I'll prove it to you." Gumball got up from his chair and walked across the lunchroom, not bothered by anyone or anything (believe me, there's a lot of things we don't know about this place). He didn't hesitate, nor shudder. He went up to Penny, and said, "Hey, Penny."

Penny looked up and saw Gumball, and said, with a smile, "Hey, Gumball."

"Could you move a little bit? I want to talk to Carrie." Confused and unsure what he was doing, she moved a little bit over.

Gumball sat on the opposite side of the table, because Carrie was behind Penny's table.

"Hey, Carrie."

She looked over and saw Gumball. She didn't have any reaction.

"Hey, Gumball," said Carrie, as dead as she can (no pun intended).

"Look, I don't know you well, but you don't know me well, either. You're the girl who has spent the most time with me. So, I was wondering if you wanted to go out on a date."

Everybody, every single thing that was around the area, who heard the talk either choked on their lunch or spit out their milk or juice.

Carrie was a bit surprised, and actually shy.

"Really? Uh...yeah, sure."

That did it.

Someone yelled, screaming out the lunchroom, "It's the apocalypse!"

"Great," Gumball said, with a smile, "I'll pick you up at 8. Sound good?"

"Alright with me."

"Good." Gumball turned to Penny, and said, "Thanks for lending me this spot, Penny. I really appreciate it."

Gumball got up and went back to his original lunch table.

Darwin and Rachel were shocked enough for what just happened.

"What the what?" Rachel said. "Why did you do that?"

"Well, Darwin wasn't going to do that. I saw an opportunity, and I took it. Plus, I proved my point: I don't like Penny, anymore."

"Gumball," Darwin said, in a serious voice, "I'm not upset you asked her out. But, you did it, right in front of Penny. Don't you think she will be heartbroken?"

"I don't know."

"I think I hate the new you, Gumball," Rachel said.

"Live it, love it, never leave it."

Penny was at Teri's house. The two were up at her room, discussing what happened at lunch.

"Why?" Penny said, on Teri's bed, with her head down on the edge. "Why did he do that?"

Teri wasn't paying too much attention. She was busying put on bug spray around the room, along with the anti-bug spray and germ repellent.

"How could Gumball do that? I thought we had a connection between each other."

"Penny," Teri said, putting on latex gloves, "maybe Gumball's going through a phase. He's going to be doing dumb stuff. That's what all boys do. They laugh at you, call you names, trick you...eventually ditching you that one night at the restaurant when you wanted him to meet your parents - you selfish jerk! - "

"TERI!" Penny screamed, trying to get her back into focus. "Look, I don't know why he would do that. Especially with her. What does she have that I don't?"

"Penny, aren't you suppose to be the sweet and open-minded one? You're kind of becoming jealous and envious...if I knew what "envy" means."

"Well..."

"Well, what?"

"This doesn't count. I mean, would you like it if the boy of your dreams starts dating another girl and you start showing a bit of your other side?"

"I guess."

"But...why her? Her!? Why does he like her?"

"Maybe he wants to experiment."

"On a dead girl?"

"Well...we have a lot of different people here. Nobody's the same in anyway."

"But, why? Why not me? Please, Teri...I have to have someone's opinion."

"Are you just saying that, or you really want my opinion? Because that has been used so many times that it literally has no meaning anymore."

"I...I don't know. Now, since you said that, I'm not sure if I'm overreacting or that I'm having a bad week and I'm going crazy."

"I'd go with the first one, but, maybe, both, as well."

"Thanks for that," Penny said, sarcastically.

"Well, maybe because he has a close connection with her."

"He just said that they both don't know each other!"

"Yeah, but he also said that she's the girl that he's spend the most time with. Think about it Penny - when was the last time you guys ever talked or hanged out?"

"Well..."

"Exactly. Plus, if that doesn't work out, whose to say he won't go to another girl."

That got under Penny's shell.

"What do you mean another girl?"

"Uh...I...whose to say that he might experiment on someone else?"

Penny lost it. She was about to leave Teri's room until she said, "Wait! Don't do anything you might regret."

"Okay, fine, whatever."

"Good," Teri said, finally having her protect-me-from-germs suit on. "Now, give me a hug before you."

"Don't you think - "

"That what? That I take this germ thing too far? Is that what you're saying?!"

"No. No, that you want to hug me, since you could get hurt by that?"

"But, you are my friend, that's an exception. Now, give me the hug or I'll change my mind about it."

Penny went over to hug her, but the suit that supported her squished too quick - it grew like a balloon and was about to pop.

"Okay, take it easy!"

Gumball was walking towards the graveyard, looking for Carrie.

"Carrie? Carrie, where are you?" Gumball said, looking around each tombstone. He found one in particular that was appealing. It said:

Here lies Phil Barker.

He died doing what he loved.

"Hmm, what did he do?" He wiped some of the dust off the bottom of the tombstone and found out what he did.

1914 Hot-Dog Eating Champion. Record Breaking 241 Hot-Dogs.

"Well, that explained the cause of death." Gumball continued on searching for Carrie.

"CARRIE!" he yelled, from the top of his lungs. Eventually, he woke up some of the ghost around, and they yelled at him, telling him to shut up. But, soon came out Carrie, emerging from the fog.

"Hey, there, Carrie."

"What are you doing?"

"Picking you up."

"I don't know live in the graveyard."

"Well, I just assumed, since you're dead and all."

"I live in the abandon house, right across the graveyard."

"Ooooohhh. Well, that was my second choice."

Darwin was all alone, doing nothing. He was flipping through the channels.

"Man, it's so boring here," Darwin said, reaching his hand out to a bowl of spaghetti, with the note from everyone else, saying:

Hey, I'm working late tonight. Be back late ~ Mom

2 lazy 2 rite rite free food! be back wen i pas out. Buy ~ Dad

I'm not here. Anais.

"What am I suppose to do for the rest of the night?"

Penny was all alone in her room, watching some lame teen dramas that she even believes is stupid. She thought about the fact they had a series about melodramatic vampires. Now, they have a show about a group of complaining teens. She thought it looked familiar.

Her phone was ringing. She picked it up and answered.

"Hello?" Penny asked.

"Hey, Penny," Darwin said, with enthusiasm. "What's going on?"

"Darwin? How did you get my number?"

"I don't know. That social site where you put up your information."

"What do you want?"

"Nothing. I'm just calling, bored since Gumball went to movies with Carrie at the south side of town and - "

"Wait! Gumball's at the Plaz with Carrie?!"

"Yeah, that's what he said. So, anyway - "

"I gotta go, Darwin, bye." Penny couldn't have said it fast enough. She ran out the door and went down to Gumball's date.

Darwin was left with a dial tone that the phone does.

"Hello. Is anyone there?"

A moment of silence was endured.

"I'm so lonely."

Gumball and Carrie were just watching some of the previews.

The two weren't talking, just watching.

Two boys eventually passed them, but bump right through Carrie. She was a bit mad by that.

"Did you see that?" she said.

"What?" he said.

"That guy just bumped right through me."

"But, you're dead. He can't physically touch."

"That's not the point, it's the principle: you can't bump through someone without saying sorry."

"So, what do you want me to do?"

"Tell him to say he's sorry."

"Alright." He got and shouted to the two. "Hey, buddy! You just bumped into my date. Apologize to the lady."

"Why? She's dead. I can't even touch her."

"I'm with you on that, but it's the principle."

"It doesn't count. She's dead."

"It's the principle. Either way, you can't bump into someone."

"It doesn't count."

"Yes, it does because it's the principle!"

"Look: Hey, people!" They all turned around to him since he called to them. "Does the principle count for being rude when you can't necessarily touch the person since they're a ghost, so you didn't touch or bump through them, but rather right through the dead?"

That unleashed mayhem - people were now in a debate club against the idea about getting people to say it is rude, no matter if they're dead since it still bothers them. But, they also say they can't touch. So, the rule doesn't imply since it only counts if you bump into someone and you notice it enough to say sorry. Except for one person, who said she liked the actor in the screen, since she says he's a good actor. Eventually, they got into a debate whether or not he should even be considered an actor when they questioned his methods by simply moving his eyes down then up.

Gumball and Carrie left the theater. But, before they did, at the exact same time, Penny came in, rushed to get a ticket.

"I need to get a ticked to the movie!" Penny said, frantically.

"Okay, what's the name of the movie you want to see?"

Penny froze. She didn't know the name of the movie.

Darwin was back at the house, watching old movies, reruns on the TV, the usual good stuff on TV. Darwin had a can of cheese wiz, putting some on a pickle and eating it.

The phone rang. Darwin rushed through it, spilling everything on the couch. He got to the phone and answered, casually, making sure the person who's calling doesn't think he's desperate.

"Hello."

"Darwin, it's me, Penny. I need to know what movie they're watching."

"Well, look who came calling back."

"Darwin, please, I need to know what movie they went to see."

"Why should I do that for you? You hung up on me and ran off."

"Come on! Just help me, and I'll do whatever you want."

"Anything you say?"

"Yes! Just name it, and quickly!"

"I want you to be my friend."

"We are friends."

"No, I mean real friends. We hang out and do stuff."

"Fine, okay! What's the name of the movie?"

"I don't know. Maybe The Living Baby."

"Okay."

Penny rushed backed to the counter, since it was now empty.

"I need on ticket to The Living Baby."

"Okay. That'll be $20."

"$20!? But, it's usually $5!"

"Yeah, but we have no more space. Even when you're frantic, you should pay attention to reality."

"If you don't have seats for that movie, why were making me pay extra?"

"Because you're desperate enough to pay anything to get into that theater."

"Fine! Here!" Penny handed her the $20 and ran off to the movie.

She went in and saw people arguing. The movie had started and they were talking. She tried looking for the two since she couldn't hear them. She eventually noticed they were talking about bumping into a ghost, so she went up at the front and yelled, getting everyone's attention.

"Did any of you see a blue cat and a ghost come here?"

One of them said, "You mean the ones that left about 5 minutes ago?"

Penny dropped her arms down when she raised them to get their attention. Her mouth was so wide open that she could have swallowed a handful of flies.

"...What?"

"Yeah, they just left when this whole argument began."

"Why didn't you stop when the movie started?"

"It's the principle!"

Penny left, realizing she had spend $20, forced to make a friend, spending all this time for nothing. She walked out, very disappointed.

Gumball and Carrie were walking down the cemetery (not in it, this time). Gumball and Carrie were talking and having fun.

"I don't understand teenagers," Gumball said, walking with Carrie. "They're the most impressionable, and they buy anything when others start to have it."

"I know," Carrie said. "They're a bunch of mindless consumers. Heck, I don't even wear those ridiculous clothes."

"Because you're dead," Gumball said. He made Carrie laugh. Nobody had every make a reference to her being dead, and delight her enough to laugh about it.

"That's very true."

"Hey, you laughed."

"And?"

"You said, you only feel misery, or something."

"Well, now, I don't."

The two made it to the abandon house across the cemetery.

"You know, Gumball, I can't even remember the last time I had so much fun with someone."

"Me too. It's like we're connected."

"Yeah," Carrie said. She looked into his eyes, "But, we can't go out."

"I know," Gumball said, with a smile.

"...huh? You do? How?" Carrie asked.

"It's simple: if we start dating, then we wouldn't have this connection. We would be so consumed by the idiots that have relationships and we would stop being this way."

"You...actually got it right. I was afraid you might flip."

"Again, you have another emotion." She laughed. "But, if I have you as a girlfriend, then it wouldn't be the same as having you as my best friend."

"I thought Darwin was your best friend."

"Yeah, but you're the best girl friend I have. No one else can compare."

Penny was just walking back to her house. When, all of a sudden, she felt pain. She felt extreme pain at the moment. So much that she fell on the floor, and she didn't know why.

Gumball said, with a serious face, "If things don't work out in the future and I'm still single by 30, I just might ask for your hand in marriage."

"I don't know think you should do that."

"Yeah, you're right. After all, you're a ghost and you don't age, as far as I'm concerned."

"And you are right."

The two laughed at it. Gumball said his goodbyes to Carrie and so did she.

Gumball was on his way home, while Tobias jumped out of the bushes.

"Gumball!" Tobias screamed.

"Yes, that is me."

"What's this I hear that you're sitting with my sister?"

"Why do you care?"

"Because if Rachel starts going out with you, then you two might get married, and that would make us family, with me and Penny!"

"You keep thinking you have a chance with her."

"I have a better chance than you."

"I don't even want to go out with her. But I still have a better chance with her, whether she likes me or not."

"Oh yeah, well, it just so happens I have the same lunch period as you guys."

"So does everyone else in - "

"Quiet! And I'm going to be sitting with you."

"That's just gonna be embarrassing."

"Why? Because I'm watching over you two, so you don't try anything funny?"

"No, because it's an embarrassment to be near you."

"Well, if you don't have any intention with Rachel, then you shouldn't mind me sitting next to you guys."

"I would still mind it, since I don't want to be seen with you."

"Well, I'm going to do it anyway. Goodnight, Gumball."

"Goodnight, Tobias." They went their separate ways.

Darwin had passed out by eating too many pickles, while his mouth had a lot of cheese.

Gumball came and saw Darwin, passed out. He reached over (where his blanket was at) and grabbed the cheese can. He shake it and knew there was none left.

"Why didn't you leave me some?" Gumball said to Darwin, throwing the can in his face, even if he was passed out. Gumball grabbed the remote and turned it off and went up to bed.

Penny was still on the floor where she had that tremendous pain. She didn't even knew where she had the pain first. She fell over to the floor, as if it were a massive cramp. Penny looked paralyzed on the floor.

The thumbprint guy walked over to her. He stared for a while, then he was curious to see if she was even alive. So, he kicked her. Nothing, so he left.
