Bright

And shiny

Jimmy! Breakfie!

Jimmy!

The Kloobda.

The Kloobda is the holy guide

to living pure...

...dictated to Gil

by a talking salamander.

But more on that later.

This will help explain.

Put it in the decontamination bay.

Right there.

First, we prepare our souls by stripping

ourselves of all material possessions...

...and sexual desires.

- Kool-Aid, Lorraine?

- Thanks, Lorraine.

- Lorraine?

- Ooh!

Her name's Lorraine too?

We're all Lorraine.

And you will be Todd,

a name chosen especially for you by Gil.

What does Bill do

with all your stuff?

He's holding it for us

at the compound.

- Where's the compound?

- I'm not really sure.

- In Texas?

- Oh.

You're not a singing group.

You're a cult.

Why we'd stop? This isn't

Niagara Falls! This is a desert!

Y-Yes, yes, I-I-I realize that in

typical cases you have to wait 48 hours...

...but you see,

this is not a typical case.

My son is a bubble boy.

He'll die out there!

Well, you'll certainly

be in my prayers tonight.

And I'll be praying

you get nut cancer!

All right, Plan B.

Did you finish the note?

Come on.

"Mr and Mrs Livingston,

we have kidnapped your son.

Pay $ 100,000 or he dies.

Signed, the Jews."

Are you kidding?

Are you kidding me?

Who in their right mind

is gonna believe this note?

It's the Jews, Morton!

They're gonna want

more than $ 100,000!

Think, man, think!

Havin'a bad day

Havin'a bad day

Get out of my way

'Cause I'm havin'a bad day

Havin'a bad day

Havin'a bad day

Get out of my way

'cause I'm havin'a bad day

- Havin'a bad day

- Get off!

Havin'a bad day

Get out of my way

Get out of my way

Have you seen my son?

Hello? I think he's deaf.

Have you seen my boy?

Yeah, your weird-ass son

got on a bus full of, like...

...happy people skipping around

all over the place...

...and they headed towards Vegas...

you know, Satan's anus.

- Thank you.

- You filthy, fat, filthy deaf man!

Um, I heard that.

Morton, let's move it!

I'll have you know

that I've lost two pounds.

I have my ankle weights

on right now...

...and it's very hot in here,

and I'm losing weight.

I've lost four pounds

in the last two months.

Havin'a bad day

Havin'a bad day

Get out of my way

'Cause I'm havin'a bad day

I'm havin'a bad day

- Get out of my way 'cause I'm havin'a bad day

- Hey!

- Hey, hey!

- Oh!

What are you?

- Some kind of astronaut?

- No. I'm a...

...I'm... I'm some kind of bubble boy.

How do you take a dump

in that thing?

Um, I think I could help you

with your situation here.

How's some bubble vato

gonna help me?

I got patches.

Patches?

I could use some stinking patches.

Welcome, my children.

Welcome.
