NARRATOR: Freakazoid. In stereo, where available.
And where not available, it's not in stereo.
There's nothing we can do about that...
...so don't blame us, we've no control over it.
Call your cable company if there's some problem...
...or the local broadcaster.
But if they're not giving you stereo and you want stereo...
...that's your problem, not ours.
Don't bug us. Complain to your congressman.
Or Newt Gingrich. Like I'm sure he'd care. Ha!
But we don't wanna get any letters, understand?
Good.

NARRATOR: It's time for another stroll through...
...the Hall of Temporary Freakazoid Sidekicks in:
[NARRATOR READS ON-SCREEN TEXT]
Today's episode, "Foamy the Freakadog."
Ah, Foamy the Freakadog. Now there was a sidekick.
I'll never forget the day this noble hound...
...and I first joined forces.
Ah....
Ha!
Pull over!
Pull over now before it's too late!
[SCREAMS]
[BREAKS SQUEALING]
[BOTH SCREAM]
WOMAN: Are they okay?
[DOGS BARKING]
[DOG WHIMPERS]
[DOG BARKS]
[MOANS]
[GASPS]
What's wrong? What did I do?
Your left tail light's out. Lucky I caught it in time.
[DOGS BARKING]
-That your car? -Mm-hm.
Much as it pains me, I'm gonna have to give you a ticket.
Oh, no. Please.
Not Jerry Springer.
Okay, then. We'll forget the whole thing.
Thank you.
Hey. Look at the cute little doggy thing.
Look at your little chunky face.
You have little sweetmeats in you, don't you?
Little sweetmeats inside you.
If I hug you, they gonna come out.
Little sweet, sweet, sweets.
Make it sweet face. Give me smoochy smooch.
[FOAMY BITING AND GROWLING]
[GROWLING]
I think he likes me.
I decided to adopt the dog and trained him
as my loyal sidepooch.
Look at you, squeezy face.
Now you're worthy of the title "Freakadog."
Shake hands, Foamy.
[GRUNTING]
FREAKAZOID: Working as a team...
...we quickly became the scourge of the underworld.
[GRUNTING]
The terrorists are making their move. Let's get them, Foamy.
[GROWLS]
Aah!
Oh, you wanna go for a walk?
[GRUNTING]
So, Carl, you feel like getting a little dinner?
Yeah, sure. What would you like, uh, Chinese or deli?
Chinese, I think, for me.
How about Hop Sing's over on the boulevard?
Yeah, that's good.
FREAKAZOID: Foamy was with me battle after battle.
[GRUNTS]
[HISSING]
FREAKAZOID: Aha!
[GRUNTS]
Ha!
[FREAKAZOID GRUNTING]
Hi, Foamy, squeezy, squeezy face. Look at your little face.
This snake's really doing a number on me.
Help. Help. Help.
[GROWLING]
[FREAKAZOID GRUNTING]
Aah!
FREAKAZOID: I knew I could count on Foamy...
...even when things seemed to be at their worst.
[BEEPING]
[GRUNTING]
I'm in trouble, old pal.
Look at your little face. I wanna squeeze you.
Quick, run and find Cosgrove.
He's out by the old desert highway.
Do you understand, you little chunky meats, you?
Find Sergeant Cosgrove.

NARRATOR: The following scene has been deleted by...
...the network censors 'cause it shows...
...a pup making dog water.
[SIGHS]
[FREAKAZOID SCREAMS]
[GROWLS]
It was about this time I began to realize...
...Foamy wasn't really cutout for the rigors of sidekickdom.
And so with a heavy heart,
I brought our partnership to an end.
Too bad it had to be mine.
[GROWLS]
[PIPE PLAYS NOTE]
[SINGING] He feels no pain He can fly quite fast
In feats of strength He is unsurpassed
His grip is firm Never quavery
Britannia's superhero He's Lord Bravery
Lord Bravery, Lord Bravery
Lord Bravery
LORD BRAVERY: Oh, let's just get on with it.
LORD BRAVERY: Hold, please.
[LORD BRAVERY GRUNTS]
[WOMAN SNICKERS]
[LAUGHING]
[DINGS]
If any of you ever need rescuing, call someone else.
I hate them all.
[PEOPLE LAUGHING]
LORD BRAVERY: Oh, just stop that.
Yes, well, I'm afraid it's as we explained in the letter,
Mr. Scunthorpe.
You can't have the name Lord Bravery...
...because it's already being used by another business.
Specifically, Lord Bravery's Bake Shoppe.
Oh, but this is ridiculous.
Now, don't you worry. If I know children...
...they'll like you just the same no matter...
...what you call yourself.
-Children? -Yes.
You're a party clown, aren't you?
A party clown? A party clown?
No, I'm not a party clown. I'm a superhero.
Oh. Well, I just assumed from your little hat--
No, it's not a hat. It's a helmet symbolizing-- Uh.
Oh, look, why can't we both use the name Lord Bravery?
I'm afraid that would be too confusing.
Too confus--
They're a bakeshop, you stupid, stupid man.
-I'm a superhero. -Well, you never know.
Someone could stop you on street demanding a muffin or a scone.
Someone else might run into the bakeshop wanting to be saved...
...from a carnivorous, man-eating vegetable creature.
You see my point?
I can hurt you, you know. I'm really quite strong.
As it just so happens...
...I have a database of pre-approved names of...
...companies that aren't around anymore.
Let's have a little look-see, shall we?
Ah, here's one: "Smoked Meats and Fishes."
Excuse me?
Smoked Meats and Fishes. What do you think?
Are you actually suggesting that my new battle cry should be:
"Fear not, Smoked Meats and Fishes has arrived"?
You could put "lord" in front of it.
What kind of superhero would call himself...
...Lord Smoked Meats and Fishes?
Ah, one who wants to use the element of surprise.
Oh, you're a loon, aren't you?
Where have you escaped from? I'll take you back.
Alright, alright.
Let's not get excited. Let's see.
Ooh, here's a good one: "Southside Medical Plaza."
No.
-Being a bit picky, aren't you? -It's a medical plaza.
-"Bumbles Rubber Toy Zoo"? -No, absolutely not.
-"Mr. Tiny's Midget Pony Ride"? -Oh, stop.
-"Taste of Tempura"? -No.
-"DreamWorks"? -Dre--
DreamWorks? Hmm.
Oops, sorry. It just got taken.
Oops, and again. There'll be a lawsuit there. Ha, ha.
Now, listen to me, my little cretinous friend.
How can I keep my old name?
Ahh, well, you have to get the bakeshop to change theirs.
Fine.
SNARZETTI: How about this one, then?
Plastics Advisory Board.
WOMAN: Change our name?
Well, don't think I haven't thought about it.
What kind of name is Lord Bravery, anyway?
It's stupid, dumb, idiotic.
My real name's Helen. I wanted to call it Helen's Bake Shoppe.
Yes, yes. Well, why don't you?
Oh, no, I can't. On account of Helen's Butcher Shoppe.
What if we could get Helen's Butcher Shoppe
to change its name
Then you could change yours to Helen's Bake Shoppe.
I'm with you, sweetie.
No, there is no Helen. I'm the owner, Rudy.
I wanted to call it Rudy's Butcher Shoppe...
...but there's already a Rudy's Hardware and Twine.
Of course, I'll change my name.
I never wanted to be called Rudy's Hardware and Twine...
...in the first place.
I'm Hank.
There it is, then. It's all settled. Oh, goody.
Provided, of course...
...you can get Hank's Tires to change their name.
[CROWD MURMURING]
Everyone, please, just be quiet.
-What don't you understand? -Any of it.
Listen, it's really quite simple.
I take Lord Bravery. She becomes Helen's Bake Shoppe.
Helen's Butcher Shoppe becomes Rudy's Butcher Shoppe...
...because Rudy's Hardware and Twine changes...
...to Hank's Hardware and Twine.
And Hank's Tires becomes Terry's Tires if...
...Terry's Intimate Apparel changes to Wendy's Intimate...
...Apparel, requiring Wendy's to change to Johnny's...
...Johnny's to Ellen's, Ellen's to Frank's...
...Frank's becomes Enrique's and Enrique's becomes Bill's.
Which means all you have to do is change your name...
...from Bill's World of Paint to something else.
But I don't want to.
Why?
Because my name's Bill.
[CROWD MOANS]
[MOANS]
[CROWD MUTTERING]
No, no, wait. We'll make him change it.
We outnumber him. Come back!
WOMAN: Help! Help!
What seems to be the problem?
My boy, he's stuck in the tree.
Help!
Fear not, my good woman.
Lord Smoked Meats and Fishes has arrived.
Hang on, where do you think you're going?
-To save your son. -Not with a name like that.
-Get away. -No, it's alright.
Help, police. Get away from my boy.
No, look. It's alright.
My real name is Lord Bravery.
-Who's Lord Bravery? -Well, I am.
Could I have a muffin or a scone?
Alright, I'll get you. Come back here.
NARRATOR: And now Fan Boy presents...
..."An Ode to Leonard Nimoy."
Leonard Nimoy, Leonard Nimoy
Dear Mr. Spock, oh, golly, gee, boy
It sure would make me smile and laugh
If I could have your autograph
If I don't get it, I'll be blue But then I know what I will do
I'll call you up on the telephone
And bother you when you're at home
You hang up The line goes dead
But then a new idea pops in my head
I'll visit you right where you live
I'll ring on the doorbell And ask if you'll give
That autograph I've been waiting for
You give it to me, and so much more
Oh, thank you, thank you, Mr. Spock
Now please call Bones I need a doc
