Script[]
(The episode's scene opens up with magenta landscaping and canyons with many shiny black rocks until a closeup of Tommy's eye is shown, Tommy gasps in amazement at a thing of watermelon, Tommy is in the kitchen on the counter)
Lil: Wow!
Phil: What a melon!
(Tommy giggles and kicks the watermelon off the counter making it splatter on the floor, Chuckie arrives as Tommy climbs down off the counter)
Phil: Wow!
(The four Rugrats play and eat the watermelon until Angelica peeks in and sees them and smiles)
Angelica: Uncle Stu, Grandpa, come quick! The babies are eating watermelon!
(Chuckie drops a piece of watermelon)
Grandpa Lou: (comes in) Sorry, kids. Eating watermelon's something you can't do till you're a little older. Wouldn't want to swallow to seed, would ya? (Grandpa Lou pats Chuckie's back while he laughs, Chuckie gulps it down, and goes awestruck, places the watermelon pieces in the sink and chuckles): You don't want a watermelon growing in your tummy. (leaves)
Angelica: (smiles deviously): HA! (leaves)
Lil: What's the matter, Chuckie?
Chuckie: (terrified): You guys... I swallowed a seed!
(The three babies gasp in horror, scene cuts to a black-and-white science fiction movie on the TV, four scientist are gathered around a man lying down)
Scientist: If we don't get that thing out of him, it's going to explode.
(Angelica, Stu and Drew are watching the movie)
Grandpa Lou: (comes in with a bowl of popcorn): Did I miss anything?
Stu: They found out about the miniaturized atom bomb inside the president's stomach.
(The babies peek in and listen)
Scientist: The only way we can save the president is to shrink down with a laser beam, and actually go inside his body.
(Chuckie groans and feels his stomach)
Tommy: Chuckie, it's just one little seed.
Chuckie: (as Angelica listens in on them): Only this seed's not in the ground; it's in my tummy! What if it starts growing?! (holds Tommy)
Angelica: (shoves Tommy): It will start growing. It'll grow into a whole watermelon, and it'll get bigger... (pitches down softer): ...and bigger... and then... (loudly): KABOOM!!!!! (laughing evilly)
(The babies walk away, scene cuts to the three scientists on the TV getting themselves shrunk with a laser beam, Grandpa Lou and his two sons are astonished by this)
Grandpa Lou: Jumping' Jehoshaphat! They shrunk 'em with that laser beam!
Scientist: (deviously): Yes, yes. All goes according to plan. We'll go into the President's body all right. But what those fools don't know is that I'm not remove the device; I'm gonna detonate it! (laughing evilly and gets shrunk)
(Angelica watches this and laughs evilly thinking of a plan, scene cuts to the babies in the playroom, Tommy is wearing a doctor's headlight and stethoscope while helping Chuckie)
Tommy: We gotta get that seed outta you, Chuckie!
Chuckie: But how?
Tommy: (rubs his chin and thinks): Well... mmm... maybe you could throw up.
Phil and Lil: Yeah!
Chuckie: (shakes his head): I'm not good at throwing up, Tommy.
Tommy: What d'you mean? You throw up all the time.
Chuckie: But I never did it on purpose before. It always just happens. Like last time, I was riding in the backseat of the car, and my dad was singing "Old MacDonald", and then all of a sudden... (makes a retching sound): HOOOWAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!
Tommy, Phil and Lil: (singing): Old MacDonald had a farm...
Chuckie: STOP!!!!! Uh... You're making me sick. I don't wanna throw up--we gotta find another way!
Angelica: (comes in): Oh, there you babies are! Still scared about that tiny little seed?
Chuckie: (nods and groans holding his tummy): Uh-huh.
Angelica: Well... I know how to get it out.
Phil: You do?!
Chuckie: (goes to his knees and holds Angelica desperately): How, Angelica, how?!
Angelica: Well...
Tommy: C'mon, Angelica, you gotta tell us!
Angelica: Okay, I'll tell ya. (grabs Chuckie and Tommy by their shirts): We gotta get little.
Phil: But we are little.
Angelica: NO! Really, REALLY little, then we can go inside Chuckie and get the seed.
Tommy: How are we s'posed to do that, Angelica?
Angelica: We use a lazy beam!
Tommy: A lazy beam?
Angelica: Yep, it's the only way.
Chuckie: This doesn't sound like such a good idea.
(Scene transitions to Tommy grabbing a flashlight from a toybox)
Tommy: It might be dark inside, Chuckie, 'specially if he's got his eyes closed.
(Chuckie closed his eyes)
Phil: (takes an umbrella): I bet it's wet in there, too.
Lil: Yuck!
(Scene cuts to Angelica in the garage taking out an empty briefcase as she hums in an innocent-like tone, she packs up a radio, a screwdriver, a box of nails, a toy sailboat, and a little bouncy ball, she then takes a bag of Super-Gro Plant Food)
Angelica: (laughs deviously): Ha-ha-ha!
(Scene transitions to Angelica returning to the playroom carrying the briefcase and wearing a bathing suit with flippers, a scuba mask and snorkel)
Angelica: Everybody ready? Okay! Let's get small!
Chuckie: Wait a minute! What am I s'posed to do?!
Angelica: (thinks about it): Mmm... We gotta put you to sleep.
Chuckie: Sleep? (incredulously): SLEEP?! You inspect me to sleep ta a time like this?!
Tommy: I know! (takes out a toy monkey with cymbals out of the toybox): This always makes me go to sleep.
Chuckie: Forget it, Tommy. It'll never work. (Tommy tugs at the pull string and the toy monkey making it crash on the cymbals) It'll never make... me... (grows tired): ...go to... (immediately falls on the floor and snores)
(Lil is wearing a cooking pot as a hat and carries a teddy bear)
Angelica: (dramatically): Everyone stand under the lazy beam! (stands under the lamp and holds on to the switch) Ready or not, here we come!
(Angelica tugs on the switch, the four Rugrats are now in shining white background, Tommy gasps)
Babies: (screaming): AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!
(The four babies see that Chuckie is a giant and still asleep, Tommy, Phil and Lil hug each other and tremble in fear)
Angelica: Ah, he's nothing but a big baby.
Phil: But a REALLY big baby!
Tommy: (pushes Phil and Lil off him): Angelica's right. There's nothing' to be afraid of. It's just Chuckie.
Angelica: (to herself, evilly): Yes, yes. All goes accordion to plan. We'll go inside Chuckie, all right, but what those babies don't know is that I'm not gonna get rid of that old seed. (as she says this, her face goes closer to the screen until the pupil of her eye shows a watermelon growing vines) I'm gonna make it GROW! (laughing evilly)
Tommy: C'mon, Angelica! Are we gonna go inside Chuckie now?
Angelica: (innocent singsong): Coming, Tommy!
(The scene transitions to the four Rugrats beginning their expedition, they brace themselves from Chuckie's exhaling from snoring like a windstorm until they are pick up from Chuckie's mighty inhaling)
Babies: YAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
(The four babies are sucked inside one of Chuckie's nostrils until they land in the darkness, Tommy turns on his smiley face flashlight and moves it around)
Lil: Wow!
Phil: (echoing): HELLO!
Angelica: (scoffs exasperatingly): Come on!
(The four babies walking along inside the nostril like a cave with bats hanging from up above, one of the bat swoop down at the babies, the bat's face has Chuckie's hair and face and glasses, the babies gasp, the babies continue their quest)
Phil: Hey, Tommy! (Tommy and Angelica turn to the twins stuck in something gooey) I'm stuck!
Lil: Me, too!
Tommy: What is this stuff? (shines his flashlight down at the gooey substance, realizes this): Uh-oh...
Babies: (screaming): BOOGERS!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!
(The babies and Angelica struggle and tug at the gooey snot they're stuck in, Angelica begins to sink)
Angelica: HELP!!! I'M SINKING!!!
Tommy: It's the suitcase, Angelica! It's too heavy!
Lil: It's making you sink!
Phil: Throw it away!
Angelica: (the snot is up to her head): MY SUITCASE?! NEVER!!!!!!
(As they continue to sink, loud rumbling occurs, the babies gasp and Chuckie's nostrils inhale sucking them within)
Babies: (screaming): YAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
(The four babies fall through a tunnel into round pale pink soft objects)
Angelica: (falls in): WHOA!!! (falls headfirst)
(The three babies tug Angelica out of the soft objects, breathing is heard from inside)
Tommy: Where are we?
(Signs are posting around the sides reading "Today's Hot Air Special", "Tires Filled", and "No Smoking")
Angelica: I think this is Chuckie's lungs.
Lil: I thought we were supposed to be in Chuckie's tummy.
Angelica: (annoyed): We are! (the three babies are amazed): This is just a little detour.
Lil: How are we gonna get outta here?
Tommy: I think we can go through this stuff. (does so)
(Lil shrug as she, Phil and Angelica do the same, Tommy goes inside from outside the lung and gets pushes out into a red liquid where a fish is swimming, Tommy swims up to the surface and find himself inside a bloodstream with pink cells like pool tubes floating along and holds on to one of the cells)
Tommy: Wow!
Lil: The bloodstream!
Angelica: Let's go for a ride!
(The babies climb on the cell, Angelica grabs her briefcase as they travel along, the inside is like a sewer with pipes, the babies laugh until they see a waterfall)
Babies: WHOA! (screaming): YAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
(The babies plummet down and a pterodactyl with Chuckie's face sees them, the babies continue screaming as they plunge down the rapids, Phil flies off the cell and into the blood)
Phil: HELP! HELP! (he coughs as he reached out, Lil grabs a hold of Phil with Tommy and Angelica helping, breathes deeply): Tough current today.
(The journey down the bloodstream continues)
Tommy: OH, NO! I think we're going into Chuckie's HEART!!!!!
(The tunnel turns into a heart shape, the babies scream and fall into the blood, Chuckie's heart is shown pumping, the babies gets sucked down to the valve like a duct, they scream as they fall, a mechanic passageway opens as the four babies fall back to the bloodstream an onto the cell, the babies catch their breath)
Tommy: That was a close one!
Phil: Yeah, I didn't think we'd make it! (sighs, the four babies pass the heart) Where are we now?
Tommy: We should be pretty close to the tummy.
Lil: Look!
(The babies reach a giant Reptar lunch box indicating where the tummy is)
Tommy: This is it!
Phil: How are we gonna get in?
Tommy: Hmm...
(Scene transitions to the four babies trying to open the latch of the tummy, as they already opened the first one, until they finally pry it open, but just then, Angelica, snatches the umbrella away from Phil)
Angelica: (opens the umbrella): See ya later, suckers! (takes her briefcase and jumps in floating down, laughs wickedly): AH, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA!
Lil: Hey, why'd she do that?
Phil: Yeah, it's almost like she wanted to get away from us.
Tommy: C'mon! We gotta get that seed! (jumps inside the lunch box tummy)
'(The twins look at each other then shrug it off and follow Tommy, they land on top of the cap of a Raptar thermos)
Tommy, Phil and Lil: (they slide down): YAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!
(They land on a piece of bread along the stomach acids like milk, many different giant foods are shown along the way)
Lil: Where is she?
Tommy: (points): Look! (they find Angelica humming as she waters the watermelon seed with a watering can as she already put plant food in it) OH, NO! ANGELICA, STOP! (Angelica sees him, the babies reach to her) What're you doing?!
Angelica: I'm watering the seed, stupid, so it'll grow better.
Lil: Grow better?!
Phil: But... but we don't want it to grow at all!
Angelica: Maybe you don't, but I wanna see Chuckie's tummy go KABOOM! (laughing evilly)
(Tommy suddenly snatches the watering can as he and Angelica get into a tug-of-war until rumbling occurs and gigantic vines grow out of the seed)
Lil: Hey, you guys, it's growing!
Tommy: Look, Angelica! See what you did?!
Angelica: And I'm glad, too! (laughs wickedly): Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
Tommy: Yeah, well, you won't be when Chuckie's tummy "esplodes" while you're inside it!
Angelica: (pauses then realizes this): Uh-oh! I never thought of that! WE BETTER GET OUT OF HERE!!! (a vine grabs her) WAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!
(Tommy and Phil try to save her until they scream and get caught, Angelica bites on the vine releasing her, Phil and Tommy)
Tommy: RUN, YOU, GUYS!
(The four babies board on the bread and Tommy rows away from the growing watermelon, the babies panic until the watermelon explodes, scene transitions to Chuckie, still lying on the floor in the playroom sleeping until he belches out the watermelon seed, the four babies run to where the seed landed)
Tommy: You did it, Chuckie!
Chuckie: (sits up and rubs his eyes): I did? What?
Phil: You burped up the seed!
Chuckie: But... but... Hey! How come you guys aren't little anymore?
Lil: Little? We never got little.
Chuckie: (nods): Yeah, ya, did! You shrunk yourselves with the lazy beam, then you went up my nose... (The babies go confused at this) ...and, and then you got stuck in my boogers, and then you were in my blood.
(Spike comes in and sees the seed on the floor)
Tommy: We never did anything, Chuckie!
Angelica: (shoves past the babies): Yeah, we were about to. We were just gonna turn on the lazy beam when you woke up.
Chuckie: Oh...
(Spike gazes down at the shining seed and eats it up, he gulps then runs off)
Phil: Hey, you guys! (points): Spike ate the seed!
(The five Rugrats gasp as the background goes shiny and white)
Angelica: Anyone ever been inside a dog before?
Chuckie: Uh-oh...
(The five babies fade away from the brightness ending the episode)
