Hey Pencil! How's it, like, going?
|
|
Pencil points at David.
|
|
Aw-
|
|
-esome.
|
|
What is this that you're doing?
|
|
Pencil points at David.
|
|
Seriously?
|
|
You can't tell? I hired David as my assistant.
|
|
This is dumb.
|
|
Pencil points at David.
|
|
Seriously?
|
|
He can't do anything. He only says, like, one thing.
|
|
Hey! He can say this.
|
|
Pencil points at David.
|
|
Aw
|
|
And also...
|
|
Pencil points at David.
|
|
Seriously?
|
|
And also...
|
|
Pencil points at David.
|
|
Aw, seriously?
|
|
Anything else?
|
|
NO!
|
|
I talk all day. Having someone fill in the gaps is absolutely essential.
|
|
He's useless, Pencil.
|
|
Awww...
|
|
Um, I'm sorry, David. Only speak when I point at you, please.
|
|
Pencil points at David.
|
|
Aw.
|
|
That's better. (to Match) I know he's only good for, like, one thing, but that one thing, talking, takes a big chunk out of my day. And I would appreciate if you took this...
|
|
Pencil points at David.
|
|
Seriously?
|
|
What like, ever Pencil. I wanted to hang out, just the two of us, but maybe if you think you need an assistant, maybe like, I need one too.
|
|
Cut to Match asking people to be her assistant.
|
|
So, tell me why you want to be my like, assistant.
|
|
I absolutely would NOT want to do that!
|
|
Maybe you could assist MEEEEEE—
|
|
Nope.
|
|
I could assist you to the nearest cliff, and help you fall off of it, maybe?
|
|
This is like, going terribly so far. *sighs* Tell me why you would be a good assistant for me.
|
|
No thank you. Ask Coiny.
|
|
No thank you.
|
|
And that's what I said!
|
|
Firey and Coiny begin to slap each other.
|
|
Cut to Dora.
|
|
Dadadadadada.
|
|
Wait, you want to be my assistant?
|
|
Dora tries to run away, but Match grabs her.
|
|
I think that was like, a yes!
|
|
Match pulls Dora closer to her.
|
|
Great!
|
|
Cut to Match talking to all her witnesses.
|
|
So that equals six of you. Thank you all for trying out to be my assistant today.
|
|
I did not and still don't want to do this.
|
|
I can't hear you!
|
|
You clearly heard me, or why else would you reply?
|
|
Oh, did someone say something? I couldn't tell since I didn't hear anything. Hence the delay replying.
|
|
Yup, okay.
|
|
So like, now it's time to rub all my success in Pencil's face.
|
|
Cut to Pencil and David.
|
|
Pence-Pence!
|
|
Ahem, and?
|
|
And David.
|
|
I would like to invite you to the opening of my Matchstick Factory.
|
|
Come along now!
|
|
OMG Match, How did you manage to pull this off?
|
|
With a little help from my assistants. But I've noticed you only have like, (chuckles) one assistant. I have six.
|
|
Match points at Eraser.
|
|
Ugh. Which is?-
|
|
-way more than you have, Pence-Pence.
|
|
Match points at Ruby.
|
|
I'm not saying it.
|
|
Ugh. Please please please, tell me you're like, jealous.
|
|
Meh.
|
|
Well, anyways, do you want to like, order something?
|
|
You want me to order something from a matchstick factory? Uh, one matchstick, I, uh, guess?
|
|
OMG! You, like, got it!
|
|
Cut to Match and her assistants.
|
|
One matchstick guys, quick and fast.
|
|
Let's burn this factory down!
|
|
YEAH!
|
|
Wait! That's like, the opposite of what I wanted you all to do.
|
|
Wow, Match. Really cool assistants you got here.
|
|
Waaah! I can't believe Match only views me as an assistant!
|
|
Dadadadadadada.
|
|
Firey, jump into the wall to set it ABLAZE!
|
|
You got it, Blocky!
|
|
No! Wait! Like, stop!
|
|
Firey rubs himself onto the wall repeatedly.
|
|
Quick, everyone! RUN!
|
|
Aw, seriously?
|
|
The factory is burnt to the ground. Cut to Match and Pencil outside.
|
|
Wow, Match. I can't believe they burned the factory to the ground!
|
|
No need to mock me, Pence-Pence. At least MY assistants do anything. David does nothing.
|
|
Aw, seriously?
|
|
That's literally all you can do, that's like, useless!
|
|
I'd rather have a useless assistant than ones that don't do what I say!
|
|
Aw-
|
|
I didn't mean it in a bad way, David! It's just, you don't really add anything here...
|
|
David runs away.
|
|
Way to go, Match. Now I lost my assistant.
|
|
Your assistant? I lost my factory!
|
|
Ruby starts crying.
|
|
What a complete waste of time that was.
|
|
M-Maybe we haven't been treating people nicely today...
|
|
Yeah, we don't need assistants! They don't really do anything anyway! And if we ever need anyone for help, we can always help each other!
|
|
Aww!
|
|
Seriously.
|
|
We should probably go and apologize to everyone.
|
|
Good idea. First off, let's be nice to David. We were really mean to him.
|
|
Hey, like, David! Wanna join us for lunch? We wanted to hang out with you more!
|
|
Sss... seriously?
|
|
Yeah. David, sorry about earlier. We wanted to see how you were doing.
|
|
Pencil pulls out a basket and gets a sandwich.
|
|
Oh yeah, and here's a sandwich, buddy!
|
|
Aww!
|
|
Camera zooms out on Match, Pencil and David having lunch together.
|
|
[simultaneously with Match] Ha ha ha ha ha! That's so funny, David. I enjoy eating lunch with you because I haven't had lunch in a long time! Or at least a good sandwich with a good friend like you. You always know what to say, David. And that's why I'm so glad to—
|
|
[simultaneously with Pencil] Wow, David, I'm so glad you're here on this picnic with us, and I really hope that sandwich is super tasty! Cause I w—I hope you only enjoy eating food that you like. I wouldn't want to force any... non-David-enjoyable food down your throat, like, you know, sunset-related foods, 'cause I know you're allergic to sunsets.
