Scene I: Earth viewed from Space[]

The opening shows the Earth, as viewed from space - and a rocket-like swooshing as Annie, riding Rocket, goes swooshing by and spirals towards the Earth.

Annie: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHHHH!!!

As he enters the atmosphere face first he begins to heat up, still screaming in fright.

Scene II: Einstein Habitat, Central Park Zoo[]

June, Leo and Quincy are standing on the enclosure, next to a large red cross. Quincy is monitoring Annie's trajectory through the binoculars. June is wearing a large watch strapped to his back.

Quincy: Oh, splat.

Leo: We're going to need a spatula and a mop to clean this one up...

Quincy regurgitates a spatula, then concentrates as he slowly throws up a mop bit by bit.

June: I think not. (unstraps the watch)

Meanwhile, Annie approaches the ground, still screaming.

Annie: GoooOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOONnn.................

At the very moment when his beak is about to hit the ground, June slaps a button on the watch, causing a purple energy field to spread out - and seemingly freezing time around him. Strapping the watch around himself again, he waddles over to Annie (still frozen in the same position) and pushes him away in front of him like a cart. Whistling, he delivers Private to the Garage, leaves him suspended above the Garage's Bouncy and returns to his position beside the others. June then slaps the watch again, restarting time with an orange blast of energy, while Annie's acceleration continues BUT his impact gets absorbed by the bouncy, causing him to bounce around and land back on the red cross.

Annie: (grunting as he bounces around) ...The-ee-een!!!! Cutting it a bit close, weren't you, June?

June: With my new Chronal-Curbulater I had all the time in the world! (hugs watch)

Leo: "Chronal-Curbulater", June? What does this thing do?

In the background, Quincy slowly sucks the mop back up his gullet.

June: Well, it stops time...

Leo: Really? And what does it look like?

June: Er, a watch, I guess, to the scientifically unsophisticated.

Leo: 'Stopwatch'! Boom! Done!

Leo That name does not completely convey-

June:(interrupting him) Democracy exercise! Who loves 'Stopwatch'?

Leo, Quincy and Annie raise their hands.

Annie: (eagerly) I can pronounce that one!

Leo: (smugly) Landslide!

Kowalski: (irritably) Okay, (waddling away with contempt) 'stopwatch'!

Annie: Yay!

Scene III: The Zoo[]

The einsteins hop onto a wall simultaneously as June takes off the Stopwatch again.

June: To experience the time effect, please place a Finger or thumb on the (sighing and groaning at the same time) Stopwatch.

The einsteins oblige. June slaps the Stopwatch's button, freezing time around them but allowing duration to continue for the einsteins.

Scene IV: Crocker's Office[]

The einsteins jump in front of Denzel Crocker at his desk, who is now staring blankly ahead of him.

Leo: Impressive!

Quincy: Hi!

Quincy waves at his face and is amused to receive no response

Leo: But is there a practical application?

Quincy and June go over to Crocker's face and squoosh his lips together in a kiss. They then quickly carry out of the office.

Scene V: Simpsons Habitat[]

The Einsteins carry Crocker out and place him directly in front of Nelson's face. Off-screen June restarts time, to Alice's bewilderment as she realises she is about to kiss Bing.

Denzel Crocker: Huh? (jumps over wall in horror) AAAGH!

Nelson Muntz: (indignantly) Hey, yo, it wasn't no treat for me neithers. Ha Ha!

The camera speeds to the Einsteins, watching from a distance and all rather amused.

Leo:(restraining his laughter) Okay, seriously, though, practical application?

Scene VI: Central Park[]

Some time later, the Einsteins watch as Leo monitors a snowcone vendor through their binoculars. June stops time again for them, and they slide out of the bushes and hijack the vendor's cart.

Leo: Move out!

The Einsteins escape with the cart and June unfreezes time causing the unfortunate vendor to suddenly fall over as he attempts to push a cart that suddenly disappears.

Vendor: Eeeeff!

Scene VII: Little Einstein Habitat[]

Everyone sits around the stolen cart, all licking snow cones.

Kowalski: Now that I have conquered time, I've got a few other mysteries of the universe I'm itching to crack (flipping through a long folded sheaf of paper on his clipboard)

Private and Skipper watch as the sheaf unfolds across the floor in front of them.

Skipper: Kowalski, take the time to stop and smell the snow cones! (licks his own cone)

Private: Yeah, enjoy your accomplishment, Kowalski!

Kowalski: I will, just as soon as I finish these 87 other accomplishments!

Skipper: Enjoy, NOW! That's an order~! (throws his snow cone to Kowalski)

Kowalski sighs and drops the clipboard.

June: (in a sarcastic monotone) Oh my, I am having lots of frivolous fun, ha ha, hee hee, ho, ho, ho~ (splats her face into the cone)

Scene VIII: Roary the Racing Car Habitat[]

Big Chris, sitting at the Juice bar, blows a large bubble of gum while Maurice cleans the juice blender.

Big Chris: Oh, I am telling you, Mr. Carburettor, this new flavor of the bubbling gum, Sour Apple...Punch, is extremely super delightful!

Mr. Carburettor: (cleaning blender and clearly uninterested) Uh-huh.

Big Chris: (chewing some more) And...apple-ey.

Mr. Carburettor: That's what I hear.

Big Chris: And tastes (grimaces) SOUR. (suddenly and inexplicably gets punched in the face) URGH! And punch! Urgh, this flavour commotion just goes on and on and on!!!

In the background, Mr. Carburretor finishes polishing and puts the blender on the shelf and turns to watch Chris' antics.

Mr. Carburettor: Very exciting.

Big Chris: You wanna know how long it goes?

Mr. Carburettor: Not real~

Big Chris: (interrupting) Me too! I shall need a time-counting counter.....

He and Mr. Carburettor turn around to see June, having just polished off several snow cones, pulling out the Stopwatch and polishing its face.

June: Aaah!

Chris excitedly blows and bursts another bubble, sending gum everywhere, including over Maurice.

Big Chris: Perfect. (turns around) Oh Flash! I have a job for you!

Scene IX: Little Einsteins Habitat[]

Quincy hungrily examines several snow cones, one of which appears suspiciously furry and has long ears. He happily picks this one and bites into it, only to hear it yell:

Flash: (swivelling himself in the paper cone to face Rico) OOOOWWWW!

Quincy: (horrified) Wha? Awww, bleurgh!

Flash: I'm a grape snowcone!

Quincy tosses the disguised Flash away, retching in disgust. The purple-dyed Flash, using the paper cone as a parachute, glides down in front of June, who is eating a snowcone and doesn't see Flash until it's too late. Flash dumps the paper cone over her head and runs off with the Stopwatch

Flash: HAHAHAHAHA!

June: (pulling the paper cone off) THE STOPWATCH!!!!

Flash hops over the fencing around the einstein enclosure. Seconds later, the einsteins leap onto the fencing.

Leo: GRAB FLOPPY-EARS!

The einsteins run off after him.

Scene X: Roary the Racing Car Habitat[]

Flash returns carrying the StopWatch over his head.

Flash: I did the thinking, Chris!

Big Chris: (taking the StopWatch) Very good, Flash. Now we shall solve this vexation over the flavour duration (about to press StopWatch button)

June and the others arrive...too late

June: NOOO!!! Don't touch the- (throws herself at Big Chris)

Big Chris hits the button. Time stops. Chris starts chewing his gum. Then follows a montage of scenes of Chris walking around, sitting on his chair at the caravan, playing with a ping-pong paddle, bouncing on the bouncy castle, all while accompanied by the StopWatch and still waiting for the gum to lose its flavour. Finally, he walks over to the bar and sets the StopWatch down.

Big Chris: Aaaaand...done! (slaps the button, time returns to normal)

Big Chris holds out the StopWatch to an unfrozen and surprised Mr. Carburettor.

Big Chris: Check out my latest inv- WHA-HOH!

June, still in midflight, lands on Julien and Maurice, knocking all of them down. Julien picks himself up and grabs the StopWatch.

June: Gimme back the StopWatch! (tries to snatch it from Chris) You don't know what you're dealing with!

Big Chris: (holding June at arm's length) Oh yes I do. It's a STOPWATCH. So what?

Penguin and lemur both snatch at the StopWatch

June: Stupid democracy exer-( manages to snatch it out of Chris' hands, falls backward, and starts running.)

Scene XI: The Zoo[]

Kowalski runs off through the zoo cradling his invention. Julien chases him and slams into him; bird and primate go rolling past the other penguins

Leo: Go on, June! Show me what you've got!

Julien and Kowalski land in a heap, still grappling for the StopWatch. Rico, Skipper and Private arrive and cheer Kowalski on, until Kowalski accidentally hits the button again. As Kowalski turns around in astonishment, Julien escapes with the StopWatch.

June: Oops. AH!!! (picks up the chase again)

Chris and June run through the Kenny the Shark Habitat, leaping off the ramp, the trees and Kat, frozen in mid-dive in the air;then through the Simpsons Habitat and the Wallace and Gromit Habitat, where a blindfolded Gromit is in the process of firing an arrow at an apple on Wallace's head. June suddenly returns and plucks the arrow out of its flight path.

June: Give it, give it, GIVE IT!! (throws the arrow like a javelin)

Big Chris: (ducking as arrow sails over his head) Don't wanna, don't wanna don't WANNA!!

Scene XII: Tarzan Habitat[]

Chris slinks up a lamppost and jumps into the next habitat, however upon landing the StopWatch restarts time again, just as Kowalski throws himself at Julien and they go rolling again. Kowalski gains possession of the StopWatch, only for both to look up and scream.

Chris and June: AAAAAARRRGH!

Tantor the Elephant moves backward and is about to sit down on the exact spot Julien and Kowalski are standing. Kowalski hurriedly stops time, runs out from under Bert and restarts time again, causing Julien to be sat upon.

Big Chris: EEERK!

'June: (triumphantly) HahahahaHAA!!!

Tantor, unaware of the events unfolding around him, continues to sit on Chris.

Big Chris: HELP! I'm being SNUFFOCATED!

Tantor reaches underneath himself with his trunk and pulls out Chris.

Tantor: (annoyed) What're you doing under there?

Big Chris: Hoping no one sees me...

Tantor: BAH. RUDE. (launches the screaming Chris away with his trunk)

Julien: Well, excuse-MEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Scene XIII: Roary the Racing Car Habitat[]

June: (returning to the other einsteins) I succeeded, the Stopwatch is back in the right fingers.

Chris: ...EEEEEEE!

Annie: INCOMING!

Time halts once more as Chris lands on top of June, freezing Kat towelling herself off, Crocker driving the cart and the rest of the city

June: (staring at the smashed Stopwatch) This is TERRIBLE!

Big Chris: Aw, man. Now how am I supposed to time the tastiness of my bubbling gum? (turns to June) Sour Apple Punch? It's good! You should try it in your chewing tooth.

June: get a hold of yourself, June, you can fix this. (touches StopWatch face, which cracks.) AARGH! (To Chris) DON"T TOUCH ANYTHING!!! (runs off)

Scene XIV: Einstein HQ[]

June hops in through the entrance and starts running around grabbing equipment.

June: (in increasingly panicky and higher pitched voice) Don't panic, don't PANIC, DON'T PANIC DON'T PANIIIC!

Scene XV: Roary the Racing Car Habitat[]

June returns and dumps an armload of equipment. Chris is prodding the frozen forms of the other einsteins.

Big Chris: Hey, these guys are good at playing the freeze tag. Really. I mean it.

June: (frantically attacking StopWatch with spanner) Come on, come on, you've got to work! (switches to screwdriver) Got it! (slams button and makes a deflated panicked noise, followed by various and increasingly overkill tools, from a power drill to a hammer to a jackhammer to whacking it with a hammer to whacking it with her forehead. Chris is eating gum in the foreground looking decidedly unconcerned.) GALHAHAHARGH! Gah! Its no use! The time space continuum is locked by the StopWatch and the StopWatch is...stopped. So we're trapper out of time...forever. (ends with a whimper and big Bambi eyes.)

Big Chris: Er...uh huh. Okay. Look, you want in on this freeze tag game or what? (Stands in a freeze tag position)

June: AaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHH....... (runs around the whole zoo screaming)

Big Chris: I am a Statue, Not moving till you tag me.

June: (Sighs briefly), Tag. Chris, Listen carefully! They're not playing freeze tag, you and I are stuck in the single moment of time, Forever!

Big Chris: Oh. Wait Wait! What do I say is? Everybody is like this?

June: Yes!

Big Chris: Everywhere?

June: Yes!

Big Chris: Forever?

June: YES!!

Big Chris: Wait! We... (Stands up and jumps) WE CAN DO ANYTHING ONE BY ONE JUNE-Y!! (grabs June's hand and runs)

June: Okay!

XVI: The Concert Stage[]

Big Chris: Just two guys headin' to town. Flippin' frowns upside down.

June: I'll flip you on the clown.

Big Chris: I don't like how that sounds. C'mon! Nothin' but time, don't have to worry 'Cuz we're in no hurry! Yeah! Boom Sha-ka-la Sha-ka-la cha-ka!

At the hot dog stand June holds a hot dog and Chris eats a hot dog in one bite and he is fattened up

June: This is not the fate I would have chosen...

Big Chris: But you gotta love it! Time is frozen! We're off the clock!

June: Hey, this just might rock!

Big Chris: We're off the clock!

June: No tick and no tock! Yeah!

June and Big Chris: That has got to be fine, The world is yours and mine, Because all we've got is T-IIIIMMME! Yeah!

XVII: Einstein HQ[]

Big Chris sits on Leo as an armchair, Annie as a table with a flowerpot on her head, Quincy as a clothes hanger hanging on hats and Chris' dancer suit, Flash as a chair and Mr. Carburettor as a toilet roll hanger

June: I've (bursts out of the bathroom) Got it! (claps and reveals a toothbrush) The Trans-dimensional Toothbrush!

Big Chris: Okay buddy. But... uh... You've got baby teeth! (drinking a can of Cherry Pepsi Max)

June: Right, but who can resist this? (Brushing her teeth back and forth, spits out toothpaste and brushes her teeth in circles) Ha? (Throws the toothbrush in a pile) 7009 Inventions! Yay! What's next?

Big Chris: Oh, I'm going to have that two toot-toot Saxophone you've been talking about!

June: Oh you got it dude! (sits on Flash, writing notes on notepas) You know what, Chris? Thank you!

Big Chris: You know what, June> You're welcome!
