[BIRDS CHIRPING]
Yeah, just a sec.
Sorry, I... I was just about to call.
That's... what... we thought it was at first,
No, Mom! Just get off the phone!
Because we have to go to the nursing home.
- You can come over after? - No!
I just think... I need to be alone today.
♪ But I come to get my money back ♪
Uh, this is the first day
I just wanted to clear it up
in case there was any confusion on your part.
It's just two friends getting together for a nice dinner.
Yeah, I'm a little busy right now.
- Yeah, well, I'm busier here. - Recall the mall!
[GUFFAWS]
[BRUCE] Pouring coffee's a tough gig, girl.
one of the other girls could run and grab lunch today?
They're needed at their desks.
I know, I just, um...
girl problems.
[COUGHS NERVOUSLY]
- Oh, come on! The light! - Let's go.
Look, I just...
I just don't know if this is such a good idea anymore.
Really? Because I feel like it's the best idea I've had all summer.
We ask for forgiveness, not permission.
In fact, he'll thank us.
and the story blows up in our face
and Tom fires us.
♪ If you're so tired of moving slow ♪
I'm Dustin.
And she doesn't even care that my real pearls are still coming in.
So do you really just get to eat as much of this as you want?
- No. - My first day back.
- Can you believe that shit? - Whoa. Seriously?
[WHISPERS] I intercepted a secret Russian communication.
[SOFTLY] I intercepted a secret Russian communication.
- Just speak louder. - [LOUDLY] I intercepted
a secret Russian communication!
- American heroes. - Just think,
No catch, I just need your help.
And then he just hung up.
and his Nana obviously isn't sick.
She knows I'm lying. She knows I'm lying.
I just wish you'd consulted me,
because the way you handled this,
It's just one little mistake.
I've made hundreds, thousands.
Huh? Have I despaired? No.
Come on.
[WHISTLE BLOWS]
Hey, Jill, I gotta use the restroom. Will you watch Holly for me?
I just...
[ECHOING] ... why I didn't come last night.
It's not you, it's just...
[MALE VOICE SPEAKING RUSSIAN ON RECORDING]
The music. The music right there at the end.
Why are you listening to the music, Steve?
Listen to the Russian!
- We're translating Russian! - I'm trying to listen to the Russian,
- but there's music... - All right, babysitting time is over.
Hey, my board. That was important data, shitbirds.
And how do you know these Russians are up to no good anyways?
- How does she know about the Russians? - I don't know.
You think you have evil Russians
because you didn't realize Russians
use an entirely different alphabet than you do.
- [BOTH] Why? - 'Cause maybe I can help.
- I'm fluent in four languages, you know. - Russian?
That was Pig Latin, dingus.
- My ears are little geniuses, trust me. - Uh...
Come on, it's your turn to sling ice cream, my turn to translate.
I don't even want credit. I'm just bored.
Yes. Jack, my husband,
Bought them over at Blackburn's Supplies just last Tuesday.
Maybe they just gnawed the bag? I mean...
Because if those diseased rats are runnin' loose,
Oh, yes, I forgot to mention!
Come on over here.
[MONSTROUS CHITTERING]
[CHUCKLES] Thanks for coming by.
[LAUGHS] When'd you get so serious?
They lost their jobs to the mall
and just some incredible new stores.
Which is why they all stopped shopping at their, uh, mom-and-pops.
That's just, uh, good old fashioned American capitalism.
Well, Larry, I think that they're just exercising
their good old fashioned American right to protest.
Fireworks, music, activities, you name it.
'Cause at the end of the day, that's all the voters will remember.
just do your job.
Seriously?
[UPBEAT SYNTH MUSIC PLAYING]
So, what should we do first?
Well, then I guess we're just gonna have to try everything.
Ooh. Come on.
I just... I don't understand what we're looking for.
What, just something that literally says "I'm sorry"?
You just try things on.
[TIRES SCREECHING]
I have a bit of a weird question for you.
What about just rats, in general?
Do you mind if I make just a few more calls?
Not at all. I enjoy the company.
I just think there's something really wrong with this rat.
- Come on. - No, I...

[MALE VOICE SPEAKING RUSSIAN]
Wait, that last part, just one more time.
The... The chair. The chair-looking thingy.
- We've got our first sentence. - Oh, seriously?
Yeah. [IN RUSSIAN ACCENT] "The week is long."
[MIKE] That's ridiculous. Why can't I just...
Not for us, but for her, for Nana.
Just, we couldn't find anything that suited you
[BUS BRAKES SQUEAL]
[BUS DOOR HISSES OPEN]
you've just gotta go through the proper channels first.
Nothing proper about what that man did to us!
- It's cutting-edge! - [CHAMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
Very good, sir.
Medium-bodied, with just a hint of cherry.
[WAITER] Ooh. Very good, sir.
[CRICKETS CHIRPING]
It creates an electromagnetic field.
Our very own Clarke-Byers Electromagnetic Field.
- Just like my magnets. - Just like your magnets.
Oh, because our field is stable.
The magnetic dipoles tried to orient according to the field, but...
No, no, no, I mean, how is this happening at my house?
And the magnets at Melvald's?
But, in order to reach your house and downtown, gosh,
[ROBIN, DUSTIN, AND STEVE] "The week is long",
I mean, it just...
it just can't be right.
- [ROBIN] It's right. - Honestly, I think it's great news.
How is this great news?
It's too specific. It's obviously a code.
Listen, just for kicks,
that it is a secret Russian transmission.
What'd you think they were gonna say, "Fire the warhead at noon"?
- the meaning of their message? - Exactly.
Why would anyone mask the true meaning of their message
- So I guess that confirms your suspicion. - Evil Russians.
yeah, totally evil Russians.
It's probably gonna take a super genius to crack it, but...
- Shh! - [DUSTIN CHUCKLES]
Would you two just shut up and listen?
The music.
The music!
- [MAN SPEAKING RUSSIAN] - [WALTZ TUNE PLAYING]
Maybe they have horses like this in Russia.
This code, it... didn't come from Russia.
[CHAMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
Would you like to order your entrée, sir?
I just lost my appetite, all right?
- [DISHES CLATTER] - Sir!
[BLOWS RASPBERRY]
[CHAMBER MUSIC CRESCENDOS]
