Short filmTranscript
00:00You're gonna break it, I think I know my own recliner, sometimes it just sticks, gotta
00:21give it a little, gotta give it a little, but sometimes it knows you're gonna do that,
00:27so you gotta surprise it with a little, that's good.
00:57Uh, maybe it's time to buy a new recliner.
01:12Buy a new recliner?
01:14Easy for you to say, money-bagged bunny, but unlike you, I wasn't born with a silver carrot
01:20in my mouth.
01:21Well, then get it fixed.
01:23Why?
01:24If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
01:31It is broke.
01:32It's an expression, Bugs.
01:34Lord, you're ignorant.
01:36My point is, I'm perfectly content with it like this.
01:39Well, I'm not.
01:40It takes up half the room this way, and I'm not watching TV upside down.
01:44Ugh.
01:45You're so prickly.
01:46Everything has to be just so with you.
01:48It's like you can't adapt.
01:49Ugh!
01:50My eyes!
01:51That sudden change in lighting!
01:53I can't adapt to it!
01:59Why is it so hard for you to admit that you lost, Porky?
02:02I didn't lose, and got the lowest score wins.
02:06That doesn't make any sense.
02:08Everyone knows that in sports, the highest score wins.
02:11You got a 75!
02:13I got a 308.
02:15I dominated you.
02:17Ugh.
02:18He put the TV back.
02:20What in the name of Randall McClintock is this?
02:27Ooh, a new recliner.
02:30What do you think?
02:31Are you responsible for this?
02:33Well, your old one was broken.
02:35This one's brand new.
02:36It's leather.
02:37No.
02:38Absolutely not.
02:39Take it back.
02:40Why?
02:41I think it's nice.
02:42Oh, no.
02:43I definitely don't want it.
02:44Porky has the worst taste of anyone I know.
02:46You think I have that taste?
02:48Look in the mirror, man.
02:50What's with those shoes?
02:51They're crazy.
02:52They have little spikes on the bottom.
02:53Who does that?
02:54They're golf shoes.
02:55Well, what's with the one glove?
02:57Who do you think you are?
02:58Michael Jackson?
02:59I met Michael Jackson.
03:01And you are no Michael Jackson.
03:03It's a golf glove.
03:05When did you meet Michael Jackson?
03:07I met him in the Denver airport.
03:09But that's not the point.
03:10The point is, I want my old recliner back.
03:12It's too late.
03:13I donated it to a thrift store.
03:16Porky, I'm gonna need a moment alone with my roommate.
03:20Not my friend.
03:22My roommate.
03:23Oh, uh, okay.
03:27That was a garbage move.
03:28Getting you a brand new recliner was a garbage move.
03:32That recliner meant everything to me.
03:34Why?
03:35Why?
03:36It was my sole possession.
03:38What are you talking about?
03:39You got a bedroom full of stuff.
03:41Yes, but all of that is either rented, found in a dumpster,
03:44or I'm borrowing it from Porky.
03:46That recliner I bought with my own money.
03:49It was the summer after graduation.
03:52I was working at Zadaburger.
03:55It was miserable.
03:56Six days a week, ten hours a day,
03:59standing over those grease traps,
04:01slinging 80% beef pattens.
04:04I used to fantasize about sitting down,
04:07with my feet up, just relaxing.
04:11Then, one day, on my walk home from yet another nightmare shift,
04:18I looked up, and there it was, in the storefront window.
04:23I knew if I could just sit in it once, I would sit in it for the rest of my life.
04:28But they said I had to buy it.
04:34It took me all summer to make enough money.
04:37But once I did, I quit that job.
04:40Bought that recliner, and I've been sitting in it ever since.
04:45Until today.
04:47Wow.
04:48I had no idea.
04:49I feel terrible.
04:51Come on.
04:53Where are we going?
04:54To get your recliner back.
04:56Uh, g-guys?
04:59Hello?
05:00I can't believe someone already bought my recliner.
05:10Neither can I.
05:16Now what am I gonna do?
05:18Where am I gonna sit?
05:19In the new recliner I gotcha.
05:21It's very comfortable.
05:23Give it a try.
05:24Maybe you'll like it.
05:25Think of it as a new beginning.
05:27A fresh start.
05:28When one door closes, another one opens.
05:31That's what makes life interesting.
05:32You never know what's gonna happen next.
05:38Bet you didn't know that was gonna happen.
05:42Are you okay?
05:43You hit me.
05:45Bukes?
05:46Beauty?
05:47Cecil?
05:48Here, let me help you up.
05:50I'm so sorry.
05:51Are you hurt?
05:52No, I think I'm okay.
05:54Just a little startled, maybe.
05:58Uh-oh.
05:59What?
06:00Did you always have a crack in your shell?
06:02Oh, no!
06:03My shell is cracked!
06:05Don't worry.
06:06I'll take care of it.
06:07I have insurance.
06:08Oh, no.
06:09I don't want you to have to go to all that trouble.
06:11Let's handle this like gentlemen.
06:13I have a shell guy I go to.
06:15He's very reasonable.
06:16Well, whatever the cost, whatever it is,
06:19I'll be happy to pay for it.
06:21Here's my number.
06:22I'll be in touch.
06:24Ooh.
06:25Ooh.
06:26Ooh.
06:27Ooh.
06:28Ooh.
06:29What are you doing?
06:31I think you've done enough damage for one day.
06:34Being behind the wheel of a car is a tremendous responsibility, Bugs.
06:39It requires concentration and focus.
06:42That's how you avoid accidents.
06:52So, what do you think?
06:55What kind of leather is this?
06:57I don't know.
06:58Leather.
06:59Is it Corinthian or Cordovan?
07:01Or is it even leather at all?
07:03I mean, it feels like Naugahyde.
07:06It's leather.
07:07It makes a weird sound when I move like this.
07:10Well, then stop moving like that.
07:12I don't think I like it.
07:13Daffy, you're the only person in the world that wouldn't like this recliner.
07:17Ugh.
07:18Where did you get this hideous recliner?
07:20See?
07:21Told you.
07:22It's going back.
07:23What?
07:24It's just one opinion.
07:25Uh, one professional opinion?
07:28You're not a professional.
07:30Uh, no.
07:31But I watch Design Divas every week, so I think I know what I'm talking about.
07:35What is Design Divas?
07:37It's the design show where diva decorators change other divas' lives one piece of furniture at a time.
07:42Hello.
07:43We have a season pass to it.
07:44How have you never seen it?
07:46Ugh.
07:47Always with the reading, this guy.
07:49What happened to your old recliner?
07:51Brainiac over there thought he was doing me a favor by throwing it away and giving me this,
07:56this Naugahyde nightmare.
07:58It's beyond horrible.
08:04It's nice!
08:07Bugs, you're good in a lot of areas, but home decor is not one of them.
08:10You just don't see things the way we do.
08:13That's an understatement.
08:19Hello?
08:20Bugs, it's Cecil.
08:22Oh, hi.
08:23How are ya?
08:24The turtle?
08:25Yeah, right.
08:26The one you hit with your car this morning?
08:28No, yeah, I know exactly who this is.
08:30Okay.
08:31Well, I just dropped my shell off with my shell guy.
08:34And the crack is worse than we thought.
08:38Oh, no.
08:39What does that mean?
08:40It means he's gonna need $2,000.
08:43$2,000 to fix your shell?
08:45Oh, no.
08:46The $2,000 is just to go in and see what the problem is.
08:50He has to determine if it's a surface crack or a substratum crack.
08:55If it's a substratum crack, that could end up costing as much as $35,000.
09:00$3,500?
09:01$35,000.
09:04But fingers crossed, it's a surface crack.
09:09So, you wanna drop that check off?
09:12I'd come by and get it, but I probably shouldn't leave the house.
09:15You know.
09:16Turtle without a shell.
09:18Highly vulnerable.
09:19Oh, of course.
09:21What's your address?
09:224123.
09:23Can I have your credit card?
09:25My credit card?
09:26Oh, actually, I prefer a check.
09:28No, I'm sorry.
09:29I wasn't talking to you.
09:30Why do you need my credit card?
09:32We're exchanging the recliner.
09:33Hello?
09:34Oh, uh, sorry.
09:35Can you say that again?
09:37We are exchanging the recliner!
09:39Not you!
09:40You?
09:41No, I'm sorry.
09:42I wasn't talking to you.
09:43Here.
09:44Sorry.
09:45One more time, Cecil.
09:474123 Helms Way.
09:50Sorry, where'd you buy it?
09:52Home warehouse.
09:53No!
09:54Helms Way!
09:56Why would I live at home warehouse?
09:58It's not important.
09:59I'll stop by with the check.
10:01Can you help us carry the recliner to the car?
10:04It's real heavy.
10:09Great day in the morning.
10:10This place is huge.
10:12We've been walking around for an hour and just got out of the kitchen section.
10:15Where are we now?
10:16Hmm, I don't know.
10:18It's either textiles and rugs or storage solutions.
10:21A scarf basket?
10:27Who needs a scarf basket?
10:29Ooh!
10:30Look over here!
10:31You found the recliners?
10:32No, it's a complete closet organizing system.
10:35See?
10:36Everything is divided into little baskets.
10:38Baskets.
10:39Genius.
10:40All of your t-shirts go in here.
10:41Socks and underwear here.
10:42This is for your sweaters.
10:43What about my scarves?
10:45Look!
10:46Scarf baskets.
10:47Ugh!
10:48My mornings would go so much quicker if my closet looked like this.
10:52Hmm.
10:53Tell me about it.
10:54You know, about seven years ago I quit wearing clothes because my closet was so disorganized.
10:59I just gave up.
11:00O-M-J.
11:03You found the recliners?
11:04More like patio furniture and outdoor dining!
11:07Ooh!
11:08Wait for me!
11:15Oh, Mr. Beauty.
11:17Forgive my appearance.
11:18Let me go and get a robe.
11:20I just wanted to give you your check.
11:24Oh, that's so nice of you.
11:27$2,000.
11:28Yup.
11:29This should get the ball rolling.
11:31How are you feeling?
11:32Oh, you know, not good.
11:35I'm really sorry.
11:37Is there anything else I can do for you?
11:39Well, I suppose I could use some groceries.
11:42Oh.
11:43I mean, I'd go and get them myself, but a turtle without his shell.
11:48Right.
11:49Highly vulnerable.
11:50Here's a list.
11:52You, uh, had that ready to go, huh?
11:55I'd really appreciate it.
11:57Okay.
11:58I'll be right back.
12:09Were you just laughing?
12:10What?
12:11No.
12:12It sounded like the evil laugh of a cartoon villain.
12:15Oh, don't be silly.
12:17I mean, do I look like a cartoon villain?
12:22Who are you looking at?
12:24Uh-huh.
12:37Uh-huh.
12:38Uh-huh.
12:39I'm on with my shell guy.
12:42I'll get a keiner.
12:43Oh.
12:44I am doing it.
12:45Oh!
13:00A little more than we hoped.
13:02Hmm, what a shocker.
13:04Where would you like me to put all this caviar I bought?
13:07Fridge is fine.
13:09Oh, good. You remember the bubbly.
13:12Oh, yes, hi. Did you come up with a figure?
13:15Oh, boy. Oh, brother. Oh, brother, oh, boy.
13:19He says you're looking at $53,000.
13:23Let me talk to him.
13:24Oh, uh, uh, you can't.
13:26Why not?
13:27Because he, um, doesn't speak English.
13:30You were just talking to him in English.
13:31Oh, well, he can understand it.
13:33He just can't speak it.
13:35Give me that phone.
13:36Bonjour to you, too.
13:38He hung up.
13:39So, about that $53,000?
13:43Oh, you know what?
13:44Unfortunately, my checkbook's at home.
13:46Well, you know where to find me.
13:50Just clearing my throat, little parched.
13:53Gonna go ahead and open that bubbly.
13:57Oh, that's nice.
14:12Oh, hello, Mommy.
14:15That is good for the circulation.
14:17I am really feeling that circulation.
14:20Let's see what else she does.
14:22Oh, that's good.
14:26That's a nice feeling right there.
14:28Ooh.
14:29Maybe that's a little too much of that feeling.
14:33Whoops.
14:34Probably needed that.
14:35Oh.
14:36Little help here.
14:37Daffy?
14:38Uh, Daffy?
14:43Cool bed.
14:44Whew.
14:45That is quite a ride, my friend.
14:47Where were you?
14:48Looking for recliners.
14:49And I had to use the bathroom.
14:51You went over there?
14:53Mm-hmm.
14:54Very European.
14:55No doors.
14:56No judgment.
14:57Um...
14:58How do I say this?
14:59Uh, I think those are display toilets?
15:06What do you say we keep looking for those recliners?
15:09Away from this area.
15:16Let's find out a little more about Cecil the Turtle.
15:20Hmm.
15:21Here we go.
15:23A news article.
15:24Title hit by motorist.
15:26This is from six years ago.
15:28Cecil the Turtle was struck in a crosswalk.
15:32Driver claimed he came out of nowhere.
15:36Awarded $40,000 in damages?
15:39Here's another one.
15:40Title out for stroll struck by minivan.
15:43There's tons of these.
15:48You miserable little...
15:50Bugs!
15:51Oh, no.
15:52What have I done?
15:53What have I done?
15:55Calm down.
15:56Calm down.
15:57What happened?
15:58I almost killed someone.
16:00What?
16:01I hit a pedestrian with my car.
16:04I never even saw him.
16:06Poor thing.
16:07It's like he came out of nowhere.
16:09Came out of nowhere, huh?
16:11And I cracked his shell.
16:13He's vulnerable now.
16:15I gave him $10,000.
16:17But that's just for the initial estimate.
16:19It'll probably be more.
16:21He's waiting to hear back from his shell guy.
16:24I hope he's okay.
16:26Why don't we go check on him?
16:28I can't believe I got kicked out for using a toilet.
16:31Last time I got kicked out of a place, it was for not using one.
16:34Figure it out, America.
16:36On the bright side, I got the closet organizing system.
16:39I guess I just have to get used to life without a recliner.
16:43Oh, Mr. Pig, I wasn't expecting to see you.
16:51I just heard back from my shell guy.
16:53I'm afraid it's going to cost more than we'd hoped.
16:56Oh, Mr. Beauty, what are you doing here?
16:59I'm shutting down your little shell game.
17:02Well, look at that.
17:04Your shell looks as good as new.
17:06Oh, well, uh, my shell guy just fixed it.
17:12So you were a fake, cracked shell to scam people out of their money.
17:16Not anymore.
17:18Come on, Porky. We're going to the police.
17:21I wouldn't do that if I were you.
17:24Drop the shell.
17:26Hands up. Both of you.
17:31Now kick it over to me.
17:37Huh.
17:40Where'd you get that recliner?
17:42This old thing?
17:43I picked it up at the thrift store.
17:45That was where I spotted you.
17:47You were the perfect mark.
17:49I gotta hand it to you, Cecil.
17:51You're a criminal mastermind.
17:53Why, thank you very much.
17:55If you don't mind me asking, how did you come up with this scheme?
17:58Well, it's a long story.
18:00But since I'm going to shoot you anyway, what's the harm?
18:03Mind if we sit down?
18:05Why not?
18:06I mean, we're all gentlemen.
18:08I was living in Atlantic City working at Vataburger.
18:14I didn't have two dimes to rub together, but I had big dreams.
18:18I'm sorry to interrupt, but wouldn't you be more comfortable reclined?
18:23What?
18:25Oh, I just thought it was a chair.
18:28I didn't know it was a recliner.
18:30Oh!
18:32Hold on to this.
18:35Uh-oh.
18:37Looks like you cracked your shell.
18:40Oh.
18:55There are things in life that are amazing.
19:00Like stargazing, sundae lazing, and carrot quiche.
19:06But nothing can compare to a certain...
19:11...dub-notch...
19:13...care.
19:14I'll admit inside my heart he's found a niche.
19:22That's a French word meaning special place.
19:25Maestro!
19:26Look at him.
19:27There he goes.
19:29He's wonderful, and everyone knows.
19:32He's wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful bugs.
19:39He likes his coffee finely ground.
19:42When he snores, it doesn't make a sound.
19:45He respects his elders.
19:46He's a certified welder, and he's got good humor by the pound.
19:51He dates my lovely daughter, Lola.
19:54She thinks he's sweet as cherry cola.
19:58He's honest to a fault.
19:59His brain's a golden bolt.
20:01He's the yogurt to a granola.
20:05Here he comes.
20:06Man of the owl.
20:08Look at him walk.
20:09Such grace and power.
20:11He's wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful bugs.
20:17I know he's just a bunny and all, but someday I hope he's my son-in-law.
20:29He's handsome and considerate, articulate and literate, loquacious and vivacious.
20:34His garage is very spacious.
20:35He's wonderful, wonderful bugs.
20:48I know what the surprise is.
20:50You went back to Home Warehouse and got me that leather recliner again.
20:55You were right.
20:56It was great.
20:57It was way better than my old recliner.
20:59That thing was a piece of junk.
21:01I don't know why I was holding onto it.
21:02I'm glad it's out of my life.
21:04If I never see my old recliner again, it'll be too soon.
21:08So thank you.
21:09Thank you, my friend.
21:10I am so excited to sit in that leather recliner.
21:14Oh.
21:17You miserable little...
21:22The End
21:52That's not all, folks. I'm going to get out of here. And when I do, watch out, Bugues Beauty!
