1. And Steven!
Copy !req
2. We'll be fine!
I'll be right back.
Copy !req
3. I'm just gonna
walk Connie out.
Copy !req
4. Don't worry! I'm not going
back into space or anything.
Copy !req
5. They're never gonna
- let me out of their sight again.
Copy !req
6. Connie?
Copy !req
7. Connie! I know you got to
get home and get some sleep,
Copy !req
8. but once
you're all rested up,
Copy !req
9. I can't wait to tell you
about everything!
Copy !req
10. Being on Homeworld
was crazy!
Copy !req
11. After I turned myself in,
they put me on trial!
Copy !req
12. And Lars was there.
We got chased by killer robots.
Copy !req
13. What a wild ride that was.
Copy !req
14. And uh... I'm really happy
to see you again.
Copy !req
15. Umm... a-are you happy
to see me, too?
Copy !req
16. Of course I'm happy
to see you, Steven.
Copy !req
17. Uh, but?
Copy !req
18. But how could you just
give yourself up like that?
Copy !req
19. Well, first,
I said I was my dad,
Copy !req
20. and then I said
I was my mom.
Copy !req
21. - No.
- I mean, you just gave up.
Copy !req
22. I had to.
Copy !req
23. They were gonna take
all those people.
Copy !req
24. They were gonna
take you!
Copy !req
25. But what about
our training?
Copy !req
26. Stevonnie.
Jam buds.
Copy !req
27. I believed in us.
Copy !req
28. We could have done it
together.
Copy !req
29. - This is different.
- This whole thing was my fault,
Copy !req
30. but I knew that I could fix
it all if I turned myself in.
Copy !req
31. And look —
No one got hurt.
Copy !req
32. Well, except for Lars,
but I saved him, too.
Copy !req
33. But... I'm hurt.
Copy !req
34. No, you're not.
You're safe.
Copy !req
35. You're here. I'm here.
We're safe. Everything's fine.
Copy !req
36. It's not, though.
Copy !req
37. You know, it was
- a tough decision for me to make,
Copy !req
38. but it had to be done.
Copy !req
39. You don't get it.
Copy !req
40. Get what?
Copy !req
41. Let's go, Lion.
Copy !req
42. "Wow, Steven,
that was so brave of you.
Copy !req
43. I'm so glad you're back."
Copy !req
44. What?
And Lars is still in space?
Copy !req
45. Yeah, he is,
but don't worry,
Copy !req
46. he's with
some very nice gems
Copy !req
47. who are on the run
- from their Homeworld overlords.
Copy !req
48. Oh, Laaaars.
Copy !req
49. Sadie, he's fine.
Copy !req
50. We can go see him anytime
through Lion.
Copy !req
51. Glad he's not — At least he's
some kind of alive.
Copy !req
52. You told his parents,
right?
Copy !req
53. You're kind of
my practice run for that.
Copy !req
54. Let's do this quick.
Copy !req
55. I can't be away from work
too long.
Copy !req
56. I'm basically
their only employee now.
Copy !req
57. Whoa, what's going on?
Copy !req
58. We're sick of it!
Copy !req
59. Am I right about it?
Copy !req
60. Aliens nearly abducted
the whole town.
Copy !req
61. And what did Mayor "Billiam"
Dewey do about it?
Copy !req
62. That is right.
Copy !req
63. Jack and squat!
Copy !req
64. Steven, I'm going to
Lars's parents' house.
Copy !req
65. Okay, I'll
catch up with you.
Copy !req
66. And that is why
you should vote for me,
Copy !req
67. your favorite Nanefua,
for mayor of Beach City!
Copy !req
68. When I say "Do we want Dewey?"
you say "No."
Copy !req
69. Do we want Dewey?
No!
Copy !req
70. Do we want Dewey?
No!
Copy !req
71. Okay, good job.
Copy !req
72. Hmm.
"Can't hang today.
Copy !req
73. Mayor D's getting blamed
for Gem stuff,
Copy !req
74. and it's totally my fault."
Copy !req
75. I don't know, Universe.
This doesn't look good.
Copy !req
76. How's this?
Copy !req
77. Oh.
That looks great.
Copy !req
78. But I may need more.
Copy !req
79. My gosh. I've never had
an opponent before.
Copy !req
80. Even when I ran for mayor
of high school, I ran unopposed.
Copy !req
81. Probably because
I made up the position.
Copy !req
82. If only
I could've warned you
Copy !req
83. about this abduction stuff
sooner,
Copy !req
84. then everything
would be fine now.
Copy !req
85. I really
dropped the ball.
Copy !req
86. You're right, Universe.
Copy !req
87. This is all your fault.
Huh.
Copy !req
88. How about we call
an impromptu town meeting
Copy !req
89. - on the boardwalk?
- I'll tell everyone what happened
Copy !req
90. and how you weren't
involved at all,
Copy !req
91. and everyone'll
feel better
Copy !req
92. and vote for you
in the next election.
Copy !req
93. All right, Universe.
Copy !req
94. The ball's
back in your court.
Copy !req
95. - Just, uh...
- don't drop it again, huh?
Copy !req
96. So, in conclusion, Mayor Dewey
had nothing whatsoever to do
Copy !req
97. with the abductions.
Copy !req
98. Everything was my fault
because I unknowingly provided
Copy !req
99. some space Gems
with a list of names
Copy !req
100. and put everyone in danger.
Copy !req
101. Mayor Dewey
would never do anything
Copy !req
102. to purposefully endanger
the town.
Copy !req
103. He basically
just keeps a low profile
Copy !req
104. and doesn't get involved
in much of anything.
Copy !req
105. Yeah, maybe
he should be involved!
Copy !req
106. He's the mayor!
Copy !req
107. Thanks for listening,
and please vote for him
Copy !req
108. in the next Beach City
mayoral election.
Copy !req
109. Oh, ho, ho, yeah!
Hello, everyone.
Copy !req
110. Thanks for coming. Wow!
This whole abduction business
Copy !req
111. was a real close call,
huh? Whoo.
Copy !req
112. But look around you.
Copy !req
113. Everyone is safe
and accounted for.
Copy !req
114. That's not true!
What about my friend Lars?
Copy !req
115. Who?
Copy !req
116. What? Lars!
Lars Barriga?
Copy !req
117. Mr. And Mrs. Barriga's son!
Copy !req
118. Did you even know
he was still missing?
Copy !req
119. Did you know he was
still somewhere in space?
Copy !req
120. What kind of mayor
doesn't know when his own people
Copy !req
121. are lost in space?
Copy !req
122. The donut boy?
Copy !req
123. Is that why the donut shop was
closed this morning?
Copy !req
124. Yeah, but —
Do not worry.
Copy !req
125. I will do everything in my power
to hire a new donut boy.
Copy !req
126. No!
Copy !req
127. You've got to be
kidding me!
Copy !req
128. How did this get
on the Internet so fast?
Copy !req
129. I didn't invite any press
to this event.
Copy !req
130. Someone posted it
on Tube-Tube.
Copy !req
131. Only 12 people
have seen it.
Copy !req
132. 12 people?
That's half the town!
Copy !req
133. I'm finished, Universe.
Copy !req
134. I don't know
- of many political figures
Copy !req
135. that have made
a comeback
Copy !req
136. after getting a tomato
to the face.
Copy !req
137. Oh, again, and again,
and again, and again.
Copy !req
138. You need to stop
looping that.
Copy !req
139. Look, we're gonna
- get through this together, okay?
Copy !req
140. Tomorrow is
the big debate.
Copy !req
141. You still have one more chance
to win back the town's love.
Copy !req
142. But Steven, some of the things
people have been saying about me
Copy !req
143. are really painful
and mean.
Copy !req
144. We've just got to change
the conversation.
Copy !req
145. We can start with this.
Copy !req
146. "How to talk to people"?
Copy !req
147. I'm going to get you ready
for that debate,
Copy !req
148. even if it takes
all night.
Copy !req
149. All right.
Copy !req
150. Today's the day.
Copy !req
151. You got your note cards,
you look great,
Copy !req
152. and if anyone brings up
the alien invasion thing,
Copy !req
153. I wrote a bunch of Ocean Town
jokes for you to use.
Copy !req
154. Aww, shucks, Universe.
Copy !req
155. You're like the son
I never had.
Copy !req
156. You... have a son.
Copy !req
157. I know that.
Copy !req
158. You're just very different
from him, is all.
Copy !req
159. I'm rooting for you,
Dew Drops.
Copy !req
160. Thanks.
Copy !req
161. People of Beach City.
Copy !req
162. You might think
- that being a mayor is a fine
Copy !req
163. and glamorous
sort of thing.
Copy !req
164. I can understand why my opponent
would want the position.
Copy !req
165. But I've been mayor of this city
for a decade,
Copy !req
166. and I know some things
that Ms. Nanefua does not.
Copy !req
167. You see, when you're the mayor,
you get blamed for everything.
Copy !req
168. When the boardwalk has termites,
it's the mayor's fault.
Copy !req
169. When aliens steal people,
it's the mayor's fault.
Copy !req
170. When the mayor crashes
the mayor mobile
Copy !req
171. into the only cell tower
in town, it's the mayor's fault.
Copy !req
172. Most people can't handle that
kind of pressure, but I can.
Copy !req
173. So, I say to you,
Beach City citizens,
Copy !req
174. just enjoy
- our wonderful ocean breeze
Copy !req
175. and don't worry
about a thing.
Copy !req
176. Just let Dewey "do" it
for you!
Copy !req
177. Nice.
Copy !req
178. You know, Mayor Dewey,
you are right.
Copy !req
179. I am?
A-About what?
Copy !req
180. I have blamed you
for too many things,
Copy !req
181. and that is not helping.
Copy !req
182. What?
Copy !req
183. Blaming our problems
completely on the mayor
Copy !req
184. is not getting us
anywhere.
Copy !req
185. When one of us suffers,
the town suffers.
Copy !req
186. When you suffer, Mayor Billiam,
the town suffers.
Copy !req
187. So, no longer will I
point my fingers at you.
Copy !req
188. I will extend all my fingers
on both my hands
Copy !req
189. to everyone here today
Copy !req
190. and ask that we share
responsibility
Copy !req
191. for the welfare and safety
of Beach City, together!
Copy !req
192. Thank you.
Copy !req
193. You got this, Mayor Dewey.
Copy !req
194. Uh, did you ever notice
how people from Ocean Town —
Copy !req
195. Oh, who am I kidding?
Copy !req
196. Beach City deserves
a real mayor.
Copy !req
197. Someone wise and collected
like Ms. Nanefua.
Copy !req
198. Wait.
No, no, no.
Copy !req
199. I withdraw
from the race.
Copy !req
200. You can find the key to the city
under the city welcome mat.
Copy !req
201. Mayor Dewey,
what're you doing?
Copy !req
202. Y-You can't just
- throw the election like that.
Copy !req
203. W-We could still win!
Copy !req
204. Well, I know
it's not very traditional
Copy !req
205. to do that in the middle
of a debate,
Copy !req
206. but why drag it out?
Copy !req
207. - We could have won!
- I really believed in you!
Copy !req
208. I really believed in us!
Copy !req
209. Well, you were wrong.
Copy !req
210. What do you want me
to say?
Copy !req
211. How about, "I'm sorry.
Copy !req
212. We were in this together,
and I let you down."
Copy !req
213. Come on, Universe.
Copy !req
214. You know she's gonna be
a better mayor than me.
Copy !req
215. It was
the right thing to do.
Copy !req
216. I guess, but...
I still feel betrayed.
Copy !req
217. That's probably
how Connie feels.
Copy !req
218. Yeah, I don't know
- what you're talking about,
Copy !req
219. but I've got to find
a new job.
Copy !req
