You Can't Take Away Our Son!
- [The episode starts out showing inside Principal Brown's office, as Richard is weeping by the desk]
- Richard: How can you take Darwin away from us?!
- Nigel Brown: Well it seems he scored a hundred percent in his aptitude test. This has never happened before, so I had to tell the government.
- Gumball: The government?
- Nigel Brown: Yes, they want to test him out. Study his brain, probe it, dissect it. That kind of thing.
- [The scene switches to Darwin with an equation on a chalk board]
- Clipboard Man: [Via surveillance camera] Please resolve the following equation using the marker pen provided.
- [Darwin wipes marker ink all over his face]
- [The scene switches back to Elmore Jr. High School]
- Nigel Brown: It's best they take him away. He'd make the rest of you feel stupid.
- Richard: I guess he's got a point.
- Anais: So, you put clever people in quarantine like they're some sort of contagious pathological disease?
- Nigel Brown: Hmmm... maybe there's more than one genius in this family.
- Anais: [Gasps] What I meant was, ugh... [Pulls down her ears and blows a raspberry, then chants "la la la la", and blows another raspberry]
- Nigel Brown: [Wipes his glasses] Apparently not.
- Anais: Phew!
- Nicole: What makes you think I'll let you take away my son?!
- Nigel Brown: Well, technically, you're not his parents. He's registered as a... pet fish.
- Nicole: [Worried, then sits back down] Richard, what are we going to do?
- Nigel Brown: Get a new pet fish?
- Richard: I'll save you, my little fish boy! [Runs into a closet]
- Nigel Brown: Mr. Watterson, that is a stationary closet.
- [Richard walks out of the closet and sits back down sadly]
- Gumball: Can we visit him?
- Nigel Brown: Nooo.
- Nicole: Are you saying we'll never see Darwin again?
- Nigel Brown: Yup.
- Gumball: Then I'll go with him by proving I am a genius, too!
- [Principal Brown, Nicole, Richard and Anais laugh mockingly at Gumball and he walks out of Principal Brown's office]
- Gumball: I need to become intelligent right now! Quick, Gumball! To the liberray! The libararara! The... libarium? Eh, the place where the nerds hangs out.
- [Scene changes to the school's exterior, where Richard and Nicole are crying]
- Richard: [Cries] I had so much more love to give.
- Nicole: [Zooms to Darwin photo] No one will ever be able to replace him.
- Rocky: Hey dudes.
- [Darwin's photo descends, revealing Rocky]
- Richard: Oh, hi Rocky. What's with the suitcase? [Sniffs]
- Rocky: Oh, I kinda got rent troubles and I don't wanna stay with parents. Hey. Can I crash at your place? Please. [Begs]
Library
- [At the school library]
- Gumball: Hmm... I gotta find something that will make me smart. [Turns] What do you reckon, Darwin? [Remembers Darwin is not around] Oh, right. [A tumbleweed passes by]
- Felix: Oh look! Salsola collina! More commonly known as Russian thistle, wind-witch, or if you're really stupid, a tumbleweed!
- [Both Eggheads laughing]
- Colin: I love being smart.
- Gumball: That's it! I need a bigger head!
- [Gumball takes a deep breath and blows into his thumb, causing his head to inflate like a balloon ]
- Felix: Inconceivable. Mass will always held a special place in my time table.
- [Gumball with his head inflated bounds in]
- Colin and Felix: Greetings, fellow crusader of knowledge!
- Felix: What's your favorite subject, hmph?
- Gumball: [Unintelligible]
- Felix: Calculus?
- Gumball: [Unintelligible]
- Colin: Trigonometry?
- Gumball: [Unintelligible]
- Colin: Eh? Eh? Come on, spit it out.
- [Gumball bursts and splatters both Eggheads with spit, then slides backwards]
- Colin: That guy is such a Gluteus Maximus.
The Internet
- [Gumball pops up in front of a computer, with Bobert next to him]
- Gumball: Hey Bobert. Whatcha' doing?
- Bobert: I'm on the internet, the largest source of knowledge in the world. Why don't you get connected?
- Gumball: [Uses mouse as a telephone] Uh, hi, hello. Is this the Internet?
- Bobert: [Sighs] You need to click the icon.
- Gumball: [Mocks Bobert by imitating him] Which one is the icon?
- Bobert: Dude, it's the only thing on the screen.
- Gumball: I knew that.
- [Gumball clicks Internet icon and the computer shows an endless stream of pop-ups]
- Gumball: Wooaaah! [Laughs] This is beautiful! I can feel it! I'm totally learning something-thing-thing-thing...
- [Gumball glitches out and a blue screen of death appears, indicating Gumball has "crashed", then disappears as Gumball groggily gets to his arms]
- Gumball: [Strained] What... happened?
- Bobert: Your memory could not cope. You crashed. I had to reboot you.
- Gumball: [Annoyed] Oh come on! There's gotta be something in this library making people smart.
- [Scene changes to Teri]
- Teri: This is such a great, book!
- Leslie: I'd like to borrow this, book, please?
- Dictionary and Thesaurus: [Reading each other] Book book book book, book book book, ahh booook.
- Gumball: Ahh that's it, they are all watching books.
Gumball's Brain
- [Gumball sits between Carmen and Carrie, then he puts out a book and watching it]
- Gumball: [Whispers to Carmen] Hey.
- Carmen: Shh.
- Gumball: [Whispers] Hey.
- Carmen: Shhhh.
- Gumball: [Whispers] Hey.
- Carmen: Shhhhhhhh.
- Gumball: I think my book is broken. I've been watching for ages and I'm still not smart.
- Carmen: [Facepalms] You don't watch books. You read them.
- Gumball: Shh. People are trying to work.
- [Carmen leaves the table with her book]
- Gumball: Okay, brain, let's get reading. [Inhales] Once... u-pon... a.. ti-i-i-me--
- Gumball's brain: That's it. I'm outta here. [Deploys a ladder out of Gumball's ear] I've had enough. I'm off to watch TV.
- Gumball: Hey. Where do you think you're going?
- Gumball's brain: I didn't sign up for this. I quit.
- Gumball: You can't quit. There's no way I'm gonna pass a test without a brain. Please. I need you.
- Gumball's brain: We'll never pass. I'm stupid.
- Gumball: Then— then, I'm going to make you smart, like Darwin!
- [Inside the government facility]
- Clipboard Man: Uh, sir? You appear to have a bit... ink on your face?
- [Darwin turns around to show his face, covered in ink]
The Watterson's House
- Nicole: Are you sure there's nothing else you want, honey?
- Richard: Ask for anything.
- Rocky: Well, uh, can I have two cans of soda?
- Nicole: Quick, Richard! The fridge!
- [Richard quickly runs to the kitchen]
- Rocky: Oh, and some jellybeans. But only the yellow ones!
- Richard: Okay!
- [Rocky questions Nicole while he wears green underwear and shoes]
- Rocky: Uh, are you sure there's nothing else to wear, Mrs. Watterson?
- Nicole: Please honey, You can call us "Mom" and "Dad."
Training
- [Scene cuts to the School Library. Gumball's Brain can be heard crying]
- Gumball: Read it!
- Gumball's brain: I can't! [Crying]
- Gumball: Read it!
- Gumball's brain: It's too difficult! Don't make me!
- Gumball: Aren't you tired of being so useless? Years and years of insults and abuse! Remember...
- [Zooms in to Gumball's Brain. Visions of Miss Simian, Banana Joe and Principal Brown appear and insult Gumball's Brain]
- Lucy Simian: Another "F" for you, Pea Brain!
- Banana Joe: [Laughs] Doofus!
- Nigel Brown: Loser!
- [The three of them laugh and disappear]
- Gumball's brain: Okay, I'm ready.
- Gumball: Then prove it.
- [Gumball's Brain opens a book and performs a chop, but ends up hurting himself]
- Gumball: This may take a while.
- Gumball's brain: [Falls]
- [They perform a song while Gumball's Brain gets stronger]
- Man: I was a feeble minded guy. I'd slip on ice and wonder why.
- So many obstacles were thrown my way, on a downward slide each and every day.
- But something popped inside my brain. I got up to fight that fight again.
- And I knew what to do. I went through the mental pain.
- You gotta think big, think deep.
- Pretty soon you'll make that quantum leap.
- Think big, think smart. Make your brain your finest body part!
- The greatest minds from yesterday, will be crushed to dust 'cause I'm on my way.
- (Big, big, big) You gotta think big!
- [Gumball and his Brain freeze frame while jumping. Idaho walks by, and wonders why they are doing that, but he shrugs it off]
What the?
- [Scene cuts inside Principal Brown's office while he's enjoying his coffee, when suddenly Gumball surprises him]
- Gumball: I want to take the aptitude test!
- Nigel Brown: Hmmph! You don't have the brain of the genius, Watterson.
- Gumball: We'll see about that. Come on, brain! Show Principal Brown what you can do.
- [Gumball's Brain grabs a desk light and swings it at Principal Brown, knocking him unconscious]
- Gumball: What the—? What is wrong with you?! I meant do an equation or something.
- Gumball's brain: Oh. Sorry.
Back in the Watterson's House
- [Scene cuts inside Watterson's house with Rocky walking around]
- Anais: [Looks at Gumball's brain] I always pictured it a little smaller.
- Gumball's brain: I've been working out.
- [Rocky sits with Anais and Gumball]
- Rocky: Hey, dudes, want some popcorn? [Shouts to the kitchen] Dad, can I borrow Mom's car tonight?
- Richard: Sure, son. Anything you like.
- Rocky: Man, my dad is a righteous dude.
- [Gumball notices Rocky's strange attire]
- Gumball: Mom? What's going on here?
- Nicole: Oh. Well, this is your new brother: Rockwin.
- Rocky: 'Sup?
- Gumball: You're kidding, right?
- Nicole: Come on. Let's just all give it a try. Just for a moment. [Humming]
- [Brief pause]
- Gumball: [Shouts] It's not working!
- Nicole: [Sighs] You're right. It's not.
- Richard: [Interrupts Nicole] Just a minute. [Hums, then stops] No, it's not working.
- Gumball: [Crying] I miss Darwin so much.
- [Everyone starts sighing, except Anais. Then Anais interrupts]
- Anais: All right! It was me!
- Gumball: What?
- Anais: It was me who filled out Darwin's aptitude test. I found it on the TV guide. I should be the one taken away.
- Gumball, Nicole, Richard, and Gumball's brain: So Darwin's not a genius?
- Anais: No. I am.
- [Suddenly the doorbell rings. They open the door and see Darwin]
- Gumball, Richard, Nicole and Anais: Darwin!
- Darwin: Hello!
- Clipboard Men: We believe this, is yours.
- [Darwin steps inside the house]
- Anais: Yay!
- Gumball: Welcome back, buddy!
- Nicole: I missed you so much.
- Anais: Don't ever go away again.
- Richard: What a conveniently happy ending.
Happy Ending?
- [The door starts to close, but a Clipboard Man prevents the door from closing with his leg]
- Clipboard Man: Not so fast.
- [Everyone gasps]
- Richard: Hey. I said it was a happy ending.
- Clipboard Man: You still owe us one genius.
- Gumball: What do you mean?
- Clipboard Man: Well, it's obvious he didn't take that test.
- [Darwin gives a stupid look]
- Clipboard Man: But someone in this house did, [Rips off the other Clipboard Man's paper, showing a Warrant] and this warrant says that we get to take that person away.
- [Everyone gasps again]
- Clipboard Man: Who is it?
- [They begin to get anxious]
- Gumball's brain: Ahem. I know who it is.
- Gumball: [Gasps] Be quiet. Don't listen to him. He's insane in the membrane.
- Gumball's brain: Don't worry. I know what I'm doing.
- Gumball: No, you don't. You're stupid. We've established that.
- Clipboard Man: Let the brain speak.
- [A heartbeat sound can be heard as each person's worried face is shown. Then cuts to Rocky drinking soda and creating the heartbeat-like sound]
- Rocky: [Burps] Sorry.
- Gumball's brain: The person who took the test was... H-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h— him! [Points at Rocky]
- Rocky: Huh?
- [Everyone surprised]
- Rocky: Me?
- Gumball's brain: [Winks]
- Rocky: Oh. Yeah, I took that test.
- Clipboard Man: Then get your suitcase. You're coming to the research center.
- Rocky: What, you mean like, for free?
- Clipboard Man: Well of course.
- Rocky: Eh, definitely beats my parents' place.
- [Scene cuts inside the car with Rocky in it]
- Rocky: Oh, and I'm gonna need a hot tub, too. 'Cause I do most of my thinking in the bath.
- [The car leaves]
- Gumball: See ya, Rocky.
- Nicole: Bye, Rocky.
- Richard: Bye.
- Gumball: That was really smart, Brain. Darwin's back home.
- Gumball's brain: Can I come home too?
- Gumball: Are you kidding me? Get in there, little dude.
- Gumball's brain: Whoo-hoo. [Enters Gumball's head]
- Gumball: High five.
- Gumball's brain: Ha. [High fives Gumball from his ear]
- [Scene changes inside the research facility with Rocky in it]
- Rocky: Oh, and a pepperoni pizza?
- Clipboard Man: Then will you solve the equation?
- Rocky: Yeah, yeah. After my pedicure.
