VINNIE: Ugh, It’s gotta
be here somewhere!
-
Is this it?
-
We’re looking for beans, not spleens.
-
Oh.
-
I don’t understand,
it was in our bean corner last night!
-
Maybe you accidentally threw them out?
-
Hey, a Scrap never throws out
a perfectly good can of beans
-
Especially not one that’s eight ounces
of pure hickory-smoked bliss.
-
If we can’t find it by tonight
-
We starve.
-
[MUFFLED CRYING]
-
Stone, stop crying, it's not even noon yet.
-
Uh… that wasn't me.
-
[BABY CRYING]
-
The heck?
-
What is that?
-
I dunno... some kind of meat?
-
That’s a baby, dummy!
-
Well she wasn’t wrong.
-
Aww, did someone abandon you here?
-
Typical Ramshackle, huh?
-
[BABY SIGHS]
-
So now what?
-
Do we throw it back in the trash?
-
And keep looking for those beans!
-
What? No!
-
This baby’s a precious gift from Mother Nature
-
And he's all alone in the world
with no one to take care of him.
-
What about the orphanage?
-
Stone what the fuck?!
-
Everyone knows the orphanage
is no place for a kid.
-
How about we just... take him in?
-
Ahh!
-
Uh, I don't--
[GASPS] A new member
-
Means a new best friend!
-
What should we name him?
-
Hmm, maybe something like... uh...
-
Maggot?
-
Maggot...
-
‘Cos he looks like one, doesn’t he?
-
I see it!
-
Anyway.
-
Maggot, how good are you at gambling?
-
Any... bank heist, or fraud experience?
-
Oh! We can teach him
the ol’ slick n’ slide!
-
Aw yeah!
-
[UPBEAT PIANO MUSIC]
-
Ah, the smell of piss and opportunity.
-
Entertainment square is where
all the Lootbags hang out.
-
Look at 'em all
-
Riching... richily…
-
Anyway, today Skipp is gonna
show you how we get the money
-
From their pockets into ours.
-
It’s gonna be trial by fire, buddy.
-
I hope you’re ready.
-
You got this!
-
Now go eat the rich,
frickin’ devour them dude!
-
Vinnie...
-
Do you remember how we didn’t make
-
Enough from pick-pocketing last week
-
So we had to eat shoes?
-
Eh, the shoes weren't that bad
-
They tasted like all the other shoes I’ve had.
-
No, I mean...
-
How the hell are we going to raise a baby
-
If we can’t even take care of ourselves?
-
Hey, you were in Maggot’s shoes too, remember?
-
Me and Skipp found you
sopping wet from the rain
-
You looked so dumb.
-
Heheh.
-
[INHALES]
-
Anyway, Maggot’s part of our crew now.
-
Losers like us...
-
We’re all we’ve got on this bitch of an earth, so...
-
We gotta stick together.
-
And, then you just do the worm.
-
Or, I guess in your case, the maggot!
-
There ya go, nice job!
-
[VOCALIZING]
-
Aw, don’t worry, I believe in you!
-
And if you ever need help
-
The three of us will always
be there to back you up
-
Got it?
-
Aye!
-
[CHUCKLES]
-
[SKIPP BEATBOXES]
-
Alright, that’s our signal.
-
Let's bounce.
-
Mmm, yeah...
-
I replaced all her playtime
with extra pageant rehearsals
-
so there’s no way Baylee’s
gonna lose this year.
-
(Kachow!)
-
Ugh, how dreadful!
-
Another disgusting Scrap!
-
Falling into drugs and homelessness
at such a young age
-
Begging for money to get its next high...
-
[VOCALIZING]
-
Baylee!
-
A future Sweetheart does
not touch the poor!
-
And don’t smile so much,
you’ll ruin your makeup.
-
Y’know, letting your kid
express themselves
-
is actually quite healthy
for their development.
-
Hah, as if I’d take parenting advice
-
From a bunch of...
-
S-S-SCRAPS?
-
OH MY GOD!
-
Polic- [MUFFLED]
-
Skipp!
-
I’m sorry, I had to!
-
[MUFFLED SCREAMING]
-
Shit!
-
Someone shut this broad up!
-
Oh...
-
[ROARING]
-
Wow...
-
[BURPS]
-
Well, fuck me!
-
That’s a true Scrap if I ever saw one!
-
You really have a certain
-
'Jee Nee Says Ka', you know that?
-
Hey...
-
Uh...
-
Welcome to the team.
-
Ahh!
-
Stone...
-
Maggot, that was amazing!
-
You literally ate the rich,
like who even does that!
-
Alright, I hate to be that guy, but...
-
If we don’t come up
with something else
-
We’re probably gonna
have shoes for dinner again.
-
[COUGHS]
-
[WIND BLOWS]
-
Augh...
-
Die, you stupid piece of paper!
-
Attacking our fetus friend like that?!
-
Just who do you think you are?
-
Oh, hey!
-
It’s an invite for Ramshackle’s
Next Top Sweetheart.
-
The stupid baby pageant they do every year?
-
Yeah, it’s really overrated.
-
But, the winner gets…
-
Ten dollars?!
-
That’s enough for groceries,
Vinnie’s rabies shots
-
And a new can of beans.
-
[VOCALIZING]
-
Dang, you wanna try winning?
-
That’s pretty ballsy.
-
It’s a rich people-only event.
-
[VOCALIZING]
-
Hm!
-
I like the way you think,
ya little poop goblin.
-

Not that flacid potato sack!

Smile!

Let's get your good side honey!

[CROWD TALKING AND BOOING]

They cheated!
I spent ten grand on my thing’s spray tan!

[CROWD BOOING]

Oh shit.

-
..I dunno?!
-
Empathize with people?!
-
[AUDIENCE COUGHS]
-
You’re from the streets?
-
You’re all...
-
SCRAPS?
[CROWD GASPS]

Ugh, you're not allowed to be here!

[CROWD CHEERS AND BOOS]

CROWD:
Poor! Poor! Poor!

I want to speak to your...
-
Manager...
-
CROWD:
Manager... Manager...
-
Why does this shit always happen to us?
-
It’ll be okay guys.
-
There’s a reason they call us "Scraps".
-
Skipp, take Maggot and get him somewhere safe.
-
Okay!
-
[UPBEAT PUNK-ROCK MUSIC]
Alright, you want the manager?
-
Well guess what?
-
I AM THE MANAGER!

♫ It's time to get what you deserve ♫

♫ I think that we both know ♫

♫ It's time for you to see just what we're worth! ♫

♫ They make a living showing off
the pretty things they have ♫

-
♫ We're out here screaming ♫
-
♫ Well, at least they marked us on the map ♫
-
♫ I guess it isn't all that bad... ♫
-
♫ (Bad, bad, bad) ♫

♫ To be a piece of trash! ♫

Maggot’s runnin’ with us now.
-
That means you’ll never get to lay a finger on him.
-
Oh...
-
Maggot...?
-
[ANGELIC HUMMING]
-
[EXPLOSION]
-
Damn.
-
They really do grow up fast.
-
Greetings humanity.
-
I am a being of divine nature
-
Come to judge the worthiness of man's morality.
-
I came to you disguised
as a vulnerable infant seeking refuge
-
And I leave enlightened.
-
My eyes opened to Ramshackle's true nature
-
That which I deem...
-
..Unworthy.
-
You are a town sunken to the depths of depravity
-
Lavishing in its gluttony
-
And wearing its greed with pride.
-
As for you, my dear benefactors
-
Though you too are flawed
-
And God forbid you three reproduce
-
Your hearts be kind and well-intentioned.
-
Your bonds of friendship are strong
-
And the time I spent with you three mortals
-
Left me with a deep sense
of belonging and purpose.
-
As such...
-
The name "Maggot" you have bestowed upon me
-
Will always have a warm place in my heart.
-
For the milk of your kindness
-
I bestow upon you three cents
-
And an eight ounce can of hickory-smoked beans.
-
Now, I must depart
-
For I have completed my mission.
-
Maggot!
-
I’m so glad we met!
-
We’ll never forget you!
-
Likewise, Skipp.
-
Likewise.
-
Hey man, once a Scrap always a Scrap!
-
Come visit the Slum Alleys whenever ya pass by!
-
This one’s for you.
-
Thank you kindly, little ones.
-
Ah, yes.
-
One final thing to address...
-
DIVINE JUDGEMENT!
-
Farewell, mortals.
-
Live long, and prosper...
-
(Prosper... prosper...)
-
[UNINTELLIGIBLE SHOUTING]

[SIGHS]

I’m really gonna miss the guy.
-
Yeah! Now I’m stuck with you two idiots again.
-
Hey, didn’t he say something about beans?
-
OHH!
-
BEANS!
