Hold on. Is it time for the Taste of Town food festival already?
Sure is! But make sure to wear your extra-stretchy pants,
'cause I'm not the only one cooking this year.
That's right! Who wants to try one of Jeremy's famous cookies?
-Ooh, I would love to try a... -Cookie!
Mmm!
-Coconut lemon chocolate chip oatmeal! -[all] Mmm!
You know, I've always had a dream of becoming a chef.
So, when Hank told me about this food festival,
I thought it could be my big break!
Wow! You really left your nasty old germ life behind. I'm proud of you.
-[thump, gurgling] -Did that come from the bathroom?
[clattering]
-Hey, there he is! -Brother!
-[chuckles] -[all] Eugh!
[cheering]
Nice to meet you, Nigel.
Sorry about the masks. We're just not immune to you yet.
Hey, don't flatter yourself, doll. I came here
because I wanted my brother to know
I've decided to split.
-Split? -I believe Nigel is referring to mitosis,
the process in which one cell divides into multiple cells.
Ben, we have a child present!
Wow! A new germ is gonna be joining the family!
Congratulations, bro!
So, whaddya, whaddya, whaddya say we go out and celebrate, huh?
I wanna have some fun on my last night as a single germ.
Uh, not sure that's a very good idea, Nigel.
Jeremy is clean now, and you're...
-well... -Guys, come on, don't be rude!
Nigel is family. Besides,
how could I say no to that adorable face?
Okay, Jeremy, but don't forget, the food festival is tomorrow.
Trust me, me and Nigel are just gonna have some good, clean fun.
-Woo! The germs are back, baby! -[laughs] All right!
[rustling]
Aww!
Oh, what a head I've got.
Oh, look! Jeremy's back from his good, clean fun.
Wait, I did all this?
You and that sick sibling of yours.
[rock music playing]
Oh, crud!
Oh, I am so, so sorry!
Save it. I thought you had turned a corner.
Then I woke up to find
ooze in my shoes!
Once a germ, always a germ!
[sobbing] And look what you did to the precious cookies!
Look at them!
My cookies!
But I need those for the foo...
Oh, no, the food festival! I'm late!
Oh, gosh, I'm late, late, late, late, late, late!
Hank! I know I'm a little late, but I'm here now and I got my cookies.
All the booths are taken, Jeremy.
I warned you, these food folk don't fool around.
How about that booth by the port-a-potties?
Hey, slimeball, beat it!
[sad piano music]
[sobbing]
-[toilet flushes] -Hey, what's with the tears?
-You cleaning off your face? -[yells]
You! This is all your fault!
I was on my way to becoming a chef
-until you showed up and ruined it! -A chef? Oh, brother!
You really think these soap-heads would eat your lousy germ food?
Come on, look around!
Okay, okay. So these people haven't given me a chance, but my friends...
"Friends" who told you not to go out with your own brother.
The "friends" always making you feel bad about being gross.
You and that sick sibling of yours!
Once a germ, always a germ!
Ah, you're right! They don't really like me.
They could never like me.
I was foolin' myself.
But I am not foolin' myself anymore!
I am done fighting who I really am!
I am Jeremy the Germ!
-A tissue-soaking menace to society! -That's the spirit!
How about we show these scrubbers
what we really think of their little festival, huh?
Do you think we were too hard on Jeremy earlier?
Sometimes being a good friend means showing a little tough love.
I'm sure Jeremy gets that.
[moaning, yelling and retching]
-[squelching] -Hey!
Hank, what's going on? Speak to me!
It all happened so fast.
[yelling] No!
The cookies!
I can't let the world see
what they've done to you!
Ew! Ginger, no, don't touch those!
They deserve a proper burial!
All right, that's it! Nobody messes with our food,
or our friends. We gotta get Jeremy away from Nigel.
Looks like those two are peas in a petri dish.
No, this is Nigel's fault. Come on!
Ugh! This place is grossing me out!
[groaning]
[grunting with effort]
-Oh, Jeremy, there you are! -Get away from me!
Go home and wash behind your ears, or whatever you sickos like to do!
Listen, Jeremy.
We know you made a mistake, but it's not too late to clean up your act.
You can't help me!
[yells]
Can someone help me push this?
Okay, fine.
Wait! What does that suspicious handle do?
Uh, not much.
Just backs up the sewers, floods the town with sludge.
[horrified gasps]
But the town is our home!
Not for long.
When I do this, all the people will leave, and only germs will be able to stay!
It'll be a protozoan paradise!
And I shall call it Club Crud!
Hey, you tell 'em, bro!
We won't let you do this.
It's gonna take a lot more than two germs to take over this town.
Fair enough.
[gloopy gurgling]
Oh, no, he split!
Uh... congratulations?
[germs growling]
[ferocious yell]
[mutters]
[howls]
We need more!
[growling]
[yelling]
Do it, brother!
[gurgling]
No, don't do it, Jeremy! Don't throw away your dreams of being a chef!
You have a gift! Your cookies were the best I've ever tasted. See?
I couldn't just leave them at that fouled festival!
Whoa! He's lyin'.
He doesn't like your stinkin' cookies!
-He thinks they're gross. -Yeah. He thinks you’re gross.
Don't tell me what I think about cookies!
If I thought they were gross, would I do this?
It's... actually okay.
You can still taste the lemon under all the hair.
Uh... Ginger is right.
[nervous laugh] It really is... good. You know?
If you don’t look at it.
Yeah. The coconut, lemon, chocolate and oatmeal are... really masking the mud.
Oh, guys, that's so nasty.
But it's so sweet you'd do that for me!
Ah, for crying out loud! I guess I gotta do this myself.
No!
[roars]
I think you've overstayed your welcome, brother.
You were always the worst brother. No one in the family likes you!
That's fine with me, 'cause I got a better family right here... My friends!
[yells]
You did it, Jeremy! You kicked some bad guy butt.
-It's finally over. -Not yet, it isn't.
Wow, Jeremy! You totally saved the festival.
Which is good, since you also helped to totally ruin the festival.
Wow! I can't believe this delicious food was cooked by a germ!
I just hope you can accept these tasty treats as my apology
for trashing the fair.
A chef always accepts a food-based apology
from a fellow chef.
[gasps] He... Oh, boy!
You know, you want a job at the diner?
Oh, that would be... so amazing!
But I don't deserve another chance.
Of course you do. Well, sure, we'd miss having you around the garage,
but this is a chance to follow your dream.
I'll do it!
Looks like this ended up being my big break after all.
What a happy ending, huh?
It sure was. Everything worked...
-[squelch] -Ooh, my tummy!
[Angela] I don't think those sewer cookies were safe to eat.
[squelching and groaning]
