Caption: All I'm saying is you could try to be a little more solemn and serious around Nelson. After all, he's the child, and you should be an example to him of how a mature, dignified man should act, Earl. You don't think I act mature and dignified? Not always. And I'd appreciate it if you'd hand over those water balloons.

Caption: To make my alternative metropolitan energy plan work, I simply need to take 30,000 average, energetic kids who like to run around and get rambunctious. And plug 'em each into one of these portable energy collection devices. You mean portable game systems. Same thing. Anyway, all that playful energy gets sucked out of each kid and into these devices. From here, it's transferred to the electric grid. Three house playing bejeweled can supply enough electricity for 10,000 homes.
