Power Lunch/Transcript
Ace: Now, let's get those PowerPuff Girls and their friends!
Blossom: Go, guys, run!
Heroes: Right, Blossom!
Pikachu: Pika!
(The heroes run for their lives.)
Ace: Ha! You can run but you can't hide from us!
(The girls gasp then Arturo picks up Blossom and Ace freezes her.)
Buttercup and Bubbles: Blossom!
Snake: (grabbing Buttercup) Say goodnight, sucker! (throws punches at her)
Narrator: Oh, yes! The radiated [sic] candy deep inside the bowels of the Gangreen Gang— (Cut to Ace, clutching his stomach in great discomfort.) —is about to be digested— (Grubber and Arturo are also suffering and holding onto their stomachs; Grubber is blowing a raspberry.) —if you know what I mean!
Arturo: (weakly) Mommy…
[Note: The proper term is “irradiated,” referring to something exposed to radiation.]
(The girls, still trapped in the ice from Ace, are now very puzzled by what's happening to the Gangreen Gang when they had the girls right where they wanted them.)
Blossom: What is going on? (Back to Ace.)
Ace: Ooh, I gotta find a—
(Cut to a row of five portable toilets. Snake leans into view, carrying Billy and putting him down in front of one of the porta-potties.)
Snake: —bathroom!
(Close-up of the leftmost toilet and pan down the row as a different Gang member pulls each door shut. Ace, the last, pauses briefly, raising a finger.)
Ace: (weakly) Oh, uh…we’ll be right with you, girls. (He slams the door.)
(Pull back to show the entire row. Long silence. Close-up of Ace’s door, the rest of the Gang visible around it. Only the top of Arturo’s head is seen. Billy is back to normal. Ace opens the door to the sound of flushing. He too appears to be his regular self.)
Ace: Much better. (He steps out. Pull back.) Now, uh…where were we? Oh, yeah. Uh, Snake, stretch on over there and drop Billy on them there girls, would you?
Snake: Sure thing, Ace-s-s!
(He flexes his arms and reaches out, but falls to the ground—he has lost his powers. Ace looks down at him worriedly, then leans over and pokes Billy in the gut. Billy laughs as if being tickled. Now Ace looks over to Grubber, who can come up with nothing stronger than a small burp. Suddenly, the still frozen girls appear in front of them.)
Ace: Uh-oh!
Blossom: (looking rather smug) Well, well, well. Looks like somebody’s superpowers went down the drain.
(Ace laughs nervously and scratches his head, realizing that his crew are screwed now that their powers are gone. The girls gather their strength and shatter the crust of ice imprisoning them, breaking free.)
Blossom: Luckily, we still have ours. (Head-on view of the Gang, zooming in.)
Ace: (frantically waving his hands) No, wait, we can explain!
(The background for the end shot comes up.)
Narrator: (laughing) Yeah, right!
(As he continues, the Gang members go flying back and forth across the screen to the sound of punches being thrown. We see the girls slamming them around as well.)
Narrator: So once again the day is saved—thanks to the Powerpuff Girls! I knew everything would come out all right in the end.
Bubbles: Buttercup!
(Billy lands on the girls.)
Ace: Good job, boys! Now, let's get the heroes!
(Snake finds Ash and Pikachu hiding.)
Snake: (laughs) Peek-a-boo! I s-see you!
Ash Ketchum: Run for it, Pikachu!
Pikachu: Pikachu!
Snake: (stretches his arm grabbing Ash and Pikachu) Gotcha, you can't get away from me, trainer boy!
Ace: All right! Playtime is over! Destroy them!
Narrator: Oh, yes!
