Episode 8: Super Jerrie and Turbo Teazer vs. The End Part 2

Agent Tantomile looks at Super Jerrie.

Agent Tantomile: I read your mind, Super Jerrie, and I don't think that's it. Super Jerrie deflates. Meanwhile, the song is still playing from the tower.

Munkustrap: Who is singing the Jellicle Anthem without mine – I mean Old Deuteronomy's permission? Munksutrap is angry.

Super Jerrie: Calculating in his head if what he is about to say will put anyone in danger. I think…that we should go see what's going on. Bravely. COME ON, JELLICLES! Mungojerrie leads the way. If you were watching at that moment, you would have seen that it was a great Jellicle procession, on led because someone was singing the Jellicle Anthem without copyright. They arrive in the city of Mistoffolis, home of magical sparkles. They all line up in front of the tower.

Tumblebrutus: Because he is a kitten, Tumblebrututs thinks nothing is going on and believes that it is okay to joke at this moment. He nudges Carbucketty with his pointy elbow. I hope this doesn't cause great Jellicle distress and mayhem.

Carbucketty: Because he is a kitten, Carbucketty believes something dramatic and terrifying is going on, and overreacts. CAN'T YOU SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING?????!!!!! Falls to his knees and rents fur.

Super Jerrie: To the Agents. I think Turbo Teazer and I are going to go inside and investigate.

Agent Tantomile: Exchanges look with Agent Coricopat. All right, Super Jerrie, you may go. Puts paw on his shoulder. But please, be careful.

Super Jerrie: Courageously. I will.

Agent Macavity: And don't forget these. Hands Super Jerrie the Golden Earmuffs. A hero always has to be prepared.
Turbo Teazer: Crosses arms. Who said I was going in?

Super Jerrie: Grabs her by the ear. I DID. Now come on. The twins enter the radio. As they are walking down a hall (which Turbo Teazer described as spooky-ooky), the lights dim briefly. They get very bright, then suddenly go out. They hear an evil laugh.

Evil Laugh: NYAH HA HA HA!

Super Jerrie: Feeling in the dark for Turbo Teazer. TURBO TEAZER!!!! He hears his sister faintly mumble his name. He is then thrown onto a chair by someone. The lights are sudennly turned back on again. He is in a room next to Turbo Teazer. They are both sitting on chairs behind a desk. Super Jerrie realizes his hands are tied together.

Super Jerrie: Where are we?

Turbo Teazer: Crying in spite of herself. I DON'T KNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!! She throws her head down on the table. Super Jerrie takes a look around and sees…Quaxo! He has that goofy brain on his head again, and is chillaxin' all cool on his inflatable chair, which is slowly deflating.

Quaxo: Waves. Hi! Jumps down and blows air into the chair, but does not close the plug.

Turbo Teazer: Suddenly unstruck with emotion. What are you doing here?

Quaxo: I brought you in this room.

Super Jerrie: Are you behind all this?

Quaxo: Nooooooo….

Super Jerrie: Remembers that Quaxo's old brain (when he was The Maniacal Mister Mistoffelees) used to make him smart. Your new brain…is it not as efficient?

Quaxo: Jumps back down to blow some more air into his chair. I can't tell. See, I think it might be a knock-off. I don't think she wanted me to be too smart, but smart enough to build Mistoffolis. Climbs back into chair.

Super Jerrie: Pondering. It's deflating because the plug's undone.

Quaxo: Hmmmm…so it is. Jumps down and fixes that.

Super Jerrie: By the way, who is that "she" you were referring to?

Quaxo: Looks at Super Jerrie like he's an idiot. My master? DUH!

Super Jerrie: Who is your master? Before Quaxo can answer, the door swings open. A small Cat steps in, with a cape pulled out in front of the it to hide it's face.

Small Cat: NYAH HA HA HA!!!

Super Jerrie: Looking at the Cat with a dissaproving expression. Who are you and why have you brough us here?

Small Cat: I think I'll answer the first question to begin. I am the mastermind behind most of the crimes that YOU'VE had to solve. But I am also the victim, the one that everyone wants to save and protect. I am… Whips off cape.

J E M I M A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Super Jerrie and Turbo Teazer's jaw drop. Quaxo gasps for dramatic effect. THIS was who they were afraid of? Jemima – the sweet innocent kitten whom everyone adored a…criminal?

Super Jerrie Crushed. Jemima? YOU were the one causing all the problems for us Jellicles?

Jemima: I don't like to CALL it PROBLEMS…I like to call it payback. Jemima puts her to pointer fingers together.

Turbo Teazer: Confused What'd we ever do to you?

Jemima: WHAT DID YOU EVER DO TO ME?????? Calms down. I'll tell you. Screen gets blury, and Jemima is telling her story in flashbacks. When I was a kitten…

Turbo Teazer: You… still are a kitten.

Jemima: Glares at Turbo Teazer so long that Turbo Teazer gets nervous and begins to whistle. That's better. NOW. When I was a kitten, I loved to sing. I sang everywhere, all the time. But I was not happy. Only one thing could make me happy, and I did not have it. She pauses, hoping someone will ask her what it was. Quaxo gets this hint.

Quaxo: And what WAS that thing, Jemima?

Jemima: Shakes her head sadly. That thing was listeners. NO ONE LISTENED TO ME! I sang and sang and sure, they thought it was cute and sweet and all, but they didn't really care!

Super Jerrie: But Jemima, we thought that you liked to sing on your own! We thought you sang for yourself, not us!

Jemima: HEEECCCK NOOOOOO! I wanted to be a starlet! I wanted people to ASK me to sing for them, but they didn't! So one day I was sitting on the street one day, minding my own business and fuming over my predicament, when ALONZO came along and took my flippin' lollipop. Well you know what? That really ticked me off! Talk about adding salt to a wound! Well I was really glad when you came and helped me Super Jerrie. I'll give you that – because I really was. But that whole day made me even more angry. Would you like to comment?

Super Jerrie: Uhhh…no. Please continue.

Jemima: Well when Quaxo, points to Quaxo, went nuts (because he really did), I thought I could use him to my advantage. Because you see, I realized – I couldn't just get people to listen by being my nice little self. I had to DEMAND IT! I got Quaxo to help me. When some of the Jellicles got angry I put the idea in there heads to come join me so that we could PUNISH THE JELLICLE NATION AND BUILD MISTOFFOLIS! Unfortunately my plan somewhat backfired, because Cassandra was just a fruitcake, so I couldn't recruit her, and then there was that turkey thing. So the only two villains I got were Bombalurina and Skimbleshanks, because ELECTRA (when I gave her my offer) turned me down and joined the good side. But I'm sorry, this Skimbleshanks thing just isn't working out. I mean, he bought all these Richard Simmons tapes…but I digress.

Super Jerrie: Putting everything together. So you recruited the villains to help you build Mistoffolis to punish us?

Jemima: Right. Now everyone will listen to me sing – for a little while anyway. Oh, by the way, sorry about that sign. I had to let Quaxo put that it was home of magical sparkles.

Turbo Teazer: Starting to panic. Well what…wh-what are you gonna do to us?

Jemima: I'm glad you asked. Do you hear that loud music playing? The heroes nod. Well that's on the lowest volume…see, if you didn't wanna listen to me sing, then you never will again. Turbo Teazer gulps.

Super Jerrie: Sits up straight, trying to be strong despite his near crying. So wh-what are you going to do?

Jemima: BUST ALL OF YOUR LITTLE JELLICLE EARDRUMS!!!!!!!

Super Jerrie and Turbo Teazer look at each other, dreading what's to come.

Jemima: QUAXO!

Quaxo: HERE!

Jemima: Time to crank up the tunes! Jemima and Quaxo put in ear plugs. Bye bye, Super Jerrie and Turbo Teazer. Then Jemima's paw reaches for a lever labled "The Grandaddy of All Switches." Is this the end for our two Superheroes? No. Because something rises up in Super Jerrie – something called anger. He has never felt anger like this before, but it sure is motivating. In fact, in that exact moment, Super Jerrie finds so much strength that he breaks the ties that are on his hands.

Super Jerrie: Jumps up. NOW TURBO TEAZER!!!!
Turbo Teazer: RIGHT JERRIE! HYAAAAAAAH! Turbo Teazer swiftlty jumps out of her chair, flips her tied arms over her head (she is very flexible) and gets Jemima in a headlock.

Jemima: NOOOOOO! Thinks quickly. Quaxo, pull the lever!

Turbo Teazer: Not sure what Super Jerrie is to do, but knows that he has a plan. NOW, SUPER JERRIE!!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Super Jerrie nods, and as he runs out the door, Quaxo quickly pulls the lever.

Out in the street, where all the Jellicles stand, they realize the song playing is getting lounder and higher pitched. This throws off their senses, and no one even thinks of running home. Meanwhile, Super Jerrie is running down the hallway of the radio tower. He has a plan. But before he can execute it, he meets Bombalurina and Skimbleshanks in the hall.

Bombalurina: Not so fast, Super Jerrie.

Skimbleshanks: Did you HONESTLY think we'd let you go through?

Super Jerrie: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! That was his war cry. He then starts "The Tailspin Of…" and runs through the Bombalurina and Skimbleshanks, who gets tossed up in the air by the sheer force. He then runs up the stairs to the very top of the tower. It is so loud! He puts his fingers in his ears.

Super Jerrie: Looking up at the top of the tower. How am I going to get up there…I guess I'm going to have to climb! He relucltantly pulls his fingers out of his ears, then procedes to climb up the tower. How he manages it he'll never know, but he gets all the way to the top. He knows that he'll have to stop the sound somehow.

Super Jerrie: Thinking. But how? His ears burn from the loud sound. If only he had ear plugs…or earmuffs… THE GOLDEN EARMUFFS!!! EUREKA! THAT'S IT! He quickly pulls the Golden Earmuffs out of his pocket, and situates them on the tippy-top of the tower, so that no sound will be able to get through. The song is muffled.

Super Jerrie: I did it… Super Jerrie beams. But then he remembers Turbo Teazer. He can only do one thing – so he JUMPS OFF THE TOWER. Since he was a little kitten, he could never land on his feet when he fell on his head (and he learned this the hard way). So the Agents had installed a parachute to his super suit. Super Jerrie quickly pulls this string, and floats down.

As he is floating, he realizes that everybody is cheering, clapping, and whistling for him. When he touches the ground, Demeter even runs up and kisses him.

Demeter: You're my hero!

Agent Macavity: Under breath. Good luck with that…

Agent Tantomile: Running up to Super Jerrie. BRILLIANT work Super Jerrie!

Super Jerrie: There's no time to talk – I have to help Turbo Teazer with the enemy! At this exact moment, Jemima is seen running out the front door, along with Bombalurina and Skimbleshanks (who both run the wrong direction and is cuaght by Agent Electra). Turbo Teazer is chasing Jemima.

Turbo Teazer: GET BACK HERE EVIL VILLAIN! Turbo Teazer (who has obviously untied her hand by now) does an excellent karate move, and flips over Jemima, where she lands right in front of her.

Turbo Teazer: Sorry, Jemima – but everyone knows that I'M the best singer!

Munkustrap dumbfoundedly runs up with the Jellicle handcuffs, and Turbo Teazer secures them in their proper place. As Agent Macavity takes away the villain, Turbo Teazer comes to stand next to Super Jerrie. The whole crowd cheers for them (including Quaxo, who is sitting in a police car). Super Jerrie and Turbo Teazer stop to cherish this moment, and (even though Carbucketty is still convinced that he is deaf in one ear) they remember this moment for their whole nine lives.

Munkustrap: To Super Jerrie. Super Jerrie, and Turbo Teazer too, thank you for saving the Jellicles. You have truly saved us from an enemy…that, I must say, we never thought could have lost it. We thank you whole heartedly.

Agent Tantomile: Well I guess we're out of a job, Agent Coricopat.

Super Jerrie: Why?

Agent Tantomile: Smiles somewhat sadly. Because you've demolished all evil for the Jellicles, Super Jerrie. If Jemima was the main cause…well then, all of us "Agents" and "Superheroes" have nothing more to do.

Agent Coricopat: You two have been truly brave and courageous. He shakes both their hands. Congratulations. Super Jerrie and Turbo Teazer grin at each other.

Munkustrap: Well, then! Now that we don't have anything more to worry about, how about a party over at my house? I'll fix my famous recipe of Jellicle Tomato Soup, which is always served in a Jellicle Tureen on a Jellicle Lazy Susan.

Demeter: Well dear, it reminds me of blood.

Munkustrap: Rather shortly. Don't eat any then. To the others. How about it?

Super Jerrie: Smiles at Turbo Teazer. If it's all right with you Munkustrap, I think Turbo Teazer and I will change back to our normal selves and head back home.

Munkustrap: Understands. All right. Come along, Jellicles!

As the Jellicles march out of Mistoffolis, Super Jerrie and Turbo Teazer pull their Un-Super String on their suits. They are now back to being Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer.

Rumpleteazer: Thinking. Ya know Mungojerrie, if there's no more evil…I guess we gotta go back to our day jobs.

Mungojerrie: Thinking. Hey yeah.

Rumpleteazer: Hopefully. Wanna be thieves agains? If we're the only lawbreakers, and the only super heroes, then technically we'll only have to hide from the police (who is no good anyway). The two begin walking home, towards the sunset. All you can see are their backs.

Mungojerrie: Smiles. Ya know, Rumpleteazer?

Rumpleteazer: What?

Mungojerrie: I think I'd like that.

Rumpleteazer: Smiling back. Me too.

Mungojerrie: After all, a new day has begun. The two disappear into the horizon, the curtain closes, and the series finale for the Madcap Adventures of Super Jerrie and Turbo Teazer ends for ever.

I woke up this morning
Feeling alright
I've been fightin' for tomorrow
All my life
Yea, I woke up this morning
Feeling brand new
Cause the dreams that I've been dreaming
Have finally came true…

The End
