(ominous music)
- I'll bet one tortellini and one teaspoon to start.
- Mhm I think Tom's kettle is too spicy for me.
I am out.
- Oh Tom's on a roll, I'm out too.
- Oh! You're playing Noodle Spoons .
I wanna play!
- Sorry Ginger you're too young for this game.
(cat gasps)
- Ben raises it two spoons.
- You have two burnt noodles showing, Tom.
To win, you need at least a wild fettuccine in your kettle.
The odds of that are 300 to one.
- Ha ha I'm not playing the odds, I'm playing you.
- [Angela] Looks like Ben's going all in too.
- Oh, I can't do it!
- Ben folds!
Noodle Spoons goin' to Tom.
(Tom sings)
(light music)
- Show me what you had, Tom.
I have to know.
- Eh, you were right.
I was bluffing.
- Ah (screams)!
- I knew it!
I didn't know it.
(Hank imitates a horn)
- All hail the lord of the land, the land--
- Silence!
I warned you once about being loud.
Nothing.
I warned you twice then nothing.
Do you know what happens now?
- Uh, third times the charm, right?
- You're all evicted.
- [Everyone] Huh (gasps)!
(bright music)
- I beg of thee.
Do not cast us from your lands, your landlordship.
- We were playing Noodle Spoons and we got carried away.
We're sorry.
- Hm, Noodle Spoons.
What a novel game.
I've never heard of it.
- Never played Noodle Spoons!
Oh man, sit down.
- It looks fun, is it fun?
- You gotta let me show you how fun this is.
Okay, boil me in.
(harmonica music)
- [Angela] Well, the landlord's triple linguine beats
Tom's pair of ramen noodles.
- Ha ha, you won.
Again.
Geh I can't believe it.
- This is a fun game.
Teaching me this fun game.
How 'bout we say you no longer evicted.
- [Everyone] Yeah!
- Everyone friends again.
- Thank thee your landlordship.
- Look at all these noodles and these spoons.
Too bad we weren't playing for something more valuable, aye?
- We could do that.
If you want.
- Oh no, what do you suggest?
- How about this?
If I win this next game,
we get
free rent for one month.
Huh?
- Okay.
And if I win, I get to be CEO of your company
for a month.
- Huh, what?
- All I heard was okay.
Let's do this.
(harmonica music)
- Oh goodness.
Molly me.
I should have quit when I had the chance.
I never even heard of this.
- Gentlemen, your final noodle.
Okay Tom, show us your noodles.
Woah, pretty impressive.
Tom has a full pot.
Linguine high and macaroni on the shelf.
Gonna be tough to beat that.
- All the same color, all the same size.
No one wants that.
Right?
[Both] Huh (gasp)?
- No.
- No!
You have a spinach noodle flush.
- Spinach noodle flush?
- You win.
- I win this game?
No, ah that means I am your CEO for a month (laughs).
Weep them and read it.
- No, no, no, no.
This is not happening.
We're playing again.
- Don't do this Tom.
- Ben's right.
You should quit.
You're not on a roll anymore.
- It's up to the players to decide if they want to quit
and I don't.
One more game.
- Sure this is fun.
Yeah, but I pick the bet.
If you win, everything is back to normal
but if I win, I get to be the CEO of
Tom and Ben Enterprises forever.
(ominous piano music)
- What?
- Huh!
- Yeah whatever.
It's a deal.
- It's a deal!
Tom, what are you thinking--
- Silence!
(mysterious guitar music)
- A lasagna straight.
See Ben I told you I know what I'm doing.
Ha!
- And the landlord,
also has a lasagna straight.
But wait, it's gluten free.
The landlord wins!
- Oh come on.
- Oh!
- Oh, and you know that means.
Landlord is now your new boss.
New boss (echoes).
Weep them and read it.
Company meeting outside, five minutes.
Do not be late.
- Man talk about beginner's luck.
- Beginner, yeah right.
I am no beginner.
No sir dippy dandy.
I wrote the book on how to be a Noodle Spoon hustler.
- Soon to be a major motion picture.
Hey can I borrow that?
(Angela sighs)
- The landlord wrote the book on Noodle Spoons.
I wonder why he never said anything.
- Because he was hustling you.
So obvious.
- [Everyone] Huh!
- These are for cleaning Mr. Genius.
'Cause we're a cleaning company now (laughs).
Do you understand this?
- Uh I don't actually work for the company so
good luck with ehm everything.
Bye!
(piano music)
(squeaking)
(spider screams)
- Ah, achoo.
Oh.
- A long dart.
Long dart!
- Duck and cover!
- [Ginger] I found my dad's old long dart!
Come on down so we can play with them!
- Cool! I'll be right down.
- Sorry Ginger, we can't play long darts until
we finish all our cleaning assignments.
- What?
(soft piano music)
But but but--
- Nope.
(door slams)
- What took so long?
- We need a break.
- Oh yeah?
You know what I need?
I need workers who don't complain about a little hard work.
- What have you done with my computer?
- I removed all this say useless clutter.
- Useless clutter!
I see it.
It's in there.
Give me back my computer now!
- You will get one hour of computer time, maybe (laughs).
(door slams)
- What do you want?
- I want my friends back!
Which means you have to quit as CEO of
Tom and Ben Enterprises.
Now!
- Oh, I see.
Tell you what.
Landlord has better idea.
- Woah, erh.
- (Laughs) What the hey.
- You don't know me that well,
so I'll just tell you.
When I'm bored I get into mischief.
And as long as your CEO, I'm going to be very bored.
- Okay small annoying one.
Let's work something out.
I will give you a chance to take my place as
CEO if you can win it from me.
- Fine.
How 'bout a game of Floppy Tom?
- What you think I was born in this morning?
Come on now.
You are Floppy Tom expert.
Pick another game.
Alright, what about Noodle Spoons?
- Noodle Spoons?
Let's boil the kettle.
(harmonica music)
- What is going on here?
- Noodle Spoons, one game only.
If the landlord wins, Ginger can never step foot
in this building again.
But if Ginger wins, then--
- Then I am the new CEO of Tom and Ben Enterprises.
- Yeah that.
- Ginger, a CEO?
That would be even worse.
No matter who wins, we lose.
- Ginger what are you thinking?
Even Tom couldn't beat the landlord at Noodle Spoons.
- Don't worry Hank.
I never enter a Noodle Spoons battle
unless I know the outcome.
- Oh, a line from my book (laughs).
So you know how to read, huh?
(epic music)
- Time to say goodbye to this garage forever (laughs).
(epic music)
(landlord laughs)
(bell sounds)
- Okay here is the key to my protection cage.
- If you thought that landlord was tough,
wait until you see me (laughs).
- Oh no.
- Now what?
- Now for my first order.
I command you
to make everything back to how it was
before the landlord hustled Tom.
- Huh, but you weren't our boss back then.
- Wait, are you giving us our company back?
- Yep, I missed you guys.
- [Everyone] Yeah! (screams)
- Ginger!
- [Ginger] Sorry not sorry!
(upbeat music)
