11A. Door to Door
ah, first class of
the day is the civics lesson. it is a very interactive lesson, as
well. ms. bitters has the children build a house of cards
according to her building commands. what she aims for is it to
basically build our society out of game cards. dib is the unlucky
one whose desk is the base of the tower. when bitters orders that
the dead weight of the students be added to the house, it
collapses. this causes dib's desk to collapse, in turn. bitters
explains that the skool's desk budget for the year has run out,
and tells dib to get a replacement desk. he does; it's a trash
can with a rather rabid rat inside.
ms. bitters goes on to tell the class that the skool is giving
them a change to lessen their misery. a little fun raiser!
bitters turns on the chalkboard movie projector and plays the
details video. the video features poop dog, the gangta' rappa'
dawg. poop dog enucleates the fundraiser. the students will be
given boxes of poop candy bars to sell for the skool. what, do
you ask, will they get in return for this work? "prizes,
prizes, prizizes!," quote the dog. he continues and reveals
that there is a grand prize which is so great, it's a secret. zim
is upset by this. he demands that the dog tell him what the prize
is. the film ends.
the next day the children are dispatched to ravage the town and
sell candy. a wave of pure destruction sweeps across the streets.
all of the adults run for shelter. while all of the other
participants are knocking down doors and tackeling potential
customers, zim and gir nonchalantly walk down the road while zim
tells gir what happened in class yesterday. dib pops out from
nowhere and tells zim that he already sold a whole box of candy,
while zim has sold none at all. zim guffaws and continues to go
about his business with gir.
the first place that zim gets to is an old lady's house. with a
little bit of slick acting from gir, pretending to be insane and
ultimately exploding, zim makes his first sale. but he sells only
one bar, mind you. he realizes that this may be tougher than be
barganed for. after several retail failures, and a cameo from the
madness dog, zim sees that he cannot sell like a pathetic human.
he must sell like an irken warrior! now he means business.
in high spirits, zim makes a stop at a broken down house full
of...um...west virginians. or people from alabama, i don't know.
zim demands that they purchase his candy. at first they refuse,
they don't want none of his government candy. zim will not take
"no" for an answer. he fixes mind-controlling helmets
to the family's heads. the helmets project images of a conqueored
earth. the statue of liberty crooked and all but razed in new
york harbor, irkens walking down the street like it's no one's
business, fire everywhere. zim explains that this is what the
future will look like if they do not buy his candy. the family is
broken. they buy his candy. they buy his candy. they buy his
candy. they buy his candy. they buy his candy. they buy his
candy.
zim continues to use his technology on the earth-dwellers. it
works, and, in time, he wins everybody over.
the next day in class, ms. bitters proclaims dib the winner. the
rest of the class's parents will get phone calls instructing them
to love their children less. but just then, zim bursts through
the door, riding on a wave of cash. he announces that he has sold
over 1,000,000 candy units and waits for the prize. ms. bitters
opens the secret envelope and tells zim his prize: nothing. the
company just wanted to get kids to work harder for free. as a
consolation prize, zim gets tuna.

11B. FBI Warning of Doom!
gir rents a nice
movie, "intestines of war". problem is, he's had it for
quite some time and hasn't even thought of returning it to the
video store. zim walks in on gir's movie and sees that there is
an fbi warning at the beginning of it. zim freaks out and
retreats to his lair to research this "fbi".
zim asks the computer for all availible data on the fbi. the
computer is only able to provide him with a small amount of
information. so zim tells the computer to elaborate and just make
an educated guess. the computer explains to zim that the fbi is a
crack law enforcement agency founded in 1492 by demons to fight
aliens. zim is petrified.
zim returns to the ground level and takes the movie disk and
leaves the house immediately. he must return the movie before the
fbi catches on to him. zim gets to the mall after closing time.
so he breaks in, and believes that all will go smoothly.
meanwhile, in the security command center, sergeant slab rankle,
the mall security officer, is looking over the mall and admiring
all of its treasures, such as the lard house and
lemonade-on-a-stick. he catches zim sneaking around and orders
him to stop over the pa system. zim thinks it's the fbi and is
frightened. when rankle reveals that it is actually mall
security, he is greatly releaved and continues on to the video
store.
but zim underestimates the power of mall security. in a minute he
is surrounded by lasers and cannons. wires shoot from mall
mascots and restrain zim. the sergeant marches onto the scene.
zim asks that he just be let off with a warning, but rankle will
have none of it. he sends him down the tube...
zim finds himself in an underground prison. he sees that he is
with about seven other people. they welcome him to their
club...of DOOM! their leader explains how slab rankle caught them
all disobeying rules, so they landed in here. he goes on further
to say that nobody ever escaped and he has suspicions that rankle
is using the prisoners to build an army of zombies. zim can not
stand being incarcerated. he rallies up his fellow prisoners and
has them build a human pyrmaid so that he can reach the ceiling
exit. they do so and zim escapes, leaving his compatriots behind.
zim gets back into the mall and tricks the security system to
work against itself. zim retreives the video from slab rankle and
runs towards the video store. slab breaks down and calls for the
zombies! the undead are summoned but are really no help. they
just awkwardly mill around and trip over eachother. zim just
walks through the sea of corpses and pops the video disk into the
video return slot. rankle rushes to confront zim. he tells him
that he met his match and that he respects him. slab gives zim a
chance to rule the mall with him. zim declines.
zim leaves. mission accomplished. rankle walks away and reassures
his great mall. he'll always be there.
