A bird flies through the air carrying a worm in its mouth. It flies through smog and starts twirling downward above the Skool. Two children skip happily in front of the Skool. Several birds in a tree chirp. The birds take flight and fly towards the skool. They dive downward down the side of the skool flying past a window where Willy can be seen bullying a smaller student. They fly past another window where Dib can be seen looking at two cyborg squirrels dancing on the window ledge outside. Ms. Bitters is using a rotary phone on her desk.
Ms. Bitters: No!
The squirrels hop away and Dib looks at Ms. Bitters. Ms. Bitters stands up.
Ms. Bitters: No! Noo!!
Ms. Bitters holds the phone away from her ears. The sound of pig squeals can be heard on the other end of the phone. She puts the phone back up to her face.
Ms. Bitters: You'll pay for this one!
Ms. Bitters hangs up the phone. It sets on fire and a soul rises from it. The burning phone lowers into Ms. Bitters' desk and a covering closes behind it.
Ms. Bitters: Class, despite my moral outrage, the Skool principal is allowing you to celebrate Valentine's Day this year.
Alex leaps out of her seat. Her pencil flies out of her hands and spins in the air while her eyes turn into heart shapes. The class cheers. Chunk rips his desk from the floor. Zita, Mathew P. Mathers III, and Keef fly through the air. Most of the children get out of their desks. Melvin holds a heart shaped balloon that says 'Happy Valentines Day' on it. Carl sneaks up behind Melvin and wiggles his fingers. He grabs the edge of Melvin's underwear (which are labeled 'Melvin' and pulls them up over Melvin's head and balloon, sticking the balloon to his head. Aki summersaults across the floor as Gretchen runs over the empty desks. A paper airplane soars by Dib and Spoo gets thrown against Rob's desk. Brian sits at his desk with balls of crumpled paper. He flicks them off of his desk and then cheers. A book gets thrown against the wall. Zita flies down into her desk then sticks her tongue out. A tomato hits the wall. Several balls of crumpled paper hit Dib. The children are now back at their desks.
Ms. Bitters: Go ahead! Pass out your Valentine's meat slabs! It's traditional...
The Letter M opens the lid to a box of meat resting on the floor between his desk and Tae's. Tae starts to pull out slabs of meat. The children open their desks and pull out meat. A slab of meat slides down the screen. The children get out of their desks to pass out meat (except for Zim and Dib). Gretchen walks over to Dib's desk with an arm full of meat slabs.
Zim: I left my meat at home.
Aki walks overt to Zim with a tray full of heart shaped meat. She places the tray on his desk.
Zim: Sorry, I... I sorta forgot it. GET THAT OUTTA MY FACE!
Zim hits Aki's meat tray, making the meat get all over her. Zim cowers and flicks away one piece of meat that landed on his desk. The two squirrels run by on the window ledge. Gretchen places one of her meat slabs on Dib's desk. She starts piling up the rest of the meat on Dib's desk. Dib raises his hand.
Dib: Ms. Bitters! I read that long ago people used to give out cards and candy on Valentine's Day. How did the whole meat thing get started?
Ms. Bitters: You don't wanna know.
Gretchen continues piling meat on Dib's desk.
Ms. Bitters: I had a Valentine once.
An alarm goes off and a red light coming out of the ceiling flashes. Ms. Bitters talks on a new rotary phone.
Ms. Bitters: Ehh, another one?
Ms. Bitters hangs up the phone and it burns as well, and two souls escapes it. The burning phone lowers into her desk. No one is in their desk except for Zim, Dib, and Spoo. Everyone else is standing towards the back of the classroom. Alex chews on meat. All the desks have meat on them.
Ms. Bitters: To celebrate overcrowding in skool, a new student will be joining the class.
A huge futuristic jet lands in front of the window. The force of the jet landing causes Spoo to shake. The jet has a picture of a hot dog on it and is labeled 'DELISHUS WEENIE' in various places. The children gather at the window. The hatch of the jet opens and Tak walks out. Her cat MiMi slithers to her side with ghost like movements. It slithers to the window ledge and walks along it. MiMi sits down and looks at Dib. MiMi then slithers away. With a flash of light, Tak appears at the entrance to the classroom.
Tak: Hi! My name's Tak! I'm new here!
Children: Hello, Tak!
The jet takes off, causing pieces of paper to fall from the ceiling in the classroom. Tak marches inside.
Tak: My dad's the head of the Deelishus Weenie corporation! That was his jet out there, so I brought Valentine's wieners for everyone, hahaha!
Tak reaches into her backpack and pulls out a weenie, and her backpack drops to the ground and starts shooting out hundreds of weenies. They crash into a huge pile in the center of the classroom, knocking all the desks over. The Letter M cheers and a weenie hits him in the eye. Keef, Alex, Penny, Sara, Aki, and Melvin dive into the pile of weenies.
Children: Yeah! Wieners!
Weenies start crawling across the floor towards Smolga. They start crawling up her.
Smolga: Wieners ROCK!
Smolga collapses. The children begin eating the wieners. Tak hops onto Ms. Bitters' desk holding a sheet of paper. She points to Zim.
Tak: 'Cept that kid.
Zim: Weenies shmeenies! Zim needs no meats!
Tak: For him, I have prepared a poem!
Tak clears her throat.
Sara: Looks like Zim has a girl friend!
Sara takes a bite out of a weenie. Tak's hands shake as she looks angrily at Sara.
Tak: It's not nice...
Tak tears the poem in half.
Tak: ...to embarrass people! You should apologize and... eat your eraser!
A light flashes in Tak's eyes.
Sara: Yes Tak! I'm sorry Zim!
Sara take a bite out of a giant eraser. Tak holds up the two halves of the poem and reads them.
Tak: For longer than I can remember, I've been looking for someone like you....
Suddenly, all the desks are back in place and the children are sitting in them. Everyone looks at Zim.
Tak: Someone with a head like yours and a torso too. Birds sing and you're gonna pay, the end!
Tak drops the pieces of paper.
Tak: Here's some meat covered in barbeque sauce!
Tak tosses the meat at Zim. Smoke rises from him and he starts to scream. Dib points and makes some kind of gawking noise. Zim falls over and Ms. Bitters stands up.
Ms. Bitters: Thanks, Tak. That was horrible. Now, you'll need a place to sit.
Ms. Bitters points her finger at the students, moving it around trying to decide on one. She points to Rob.
Ms. Bitters: You! You're being transferred to the underground classroom!
Rob's desk lowers into the ground and rises back up without him. Tak rushes over and takes his seat. Ms. Bitters points to Brian.
Ms. Bitters: And you! I'm just tired of you!
Brian's desk lowers down and rises back up without him. His screaming can be heard. Zim leans up against the doorway with the meat on him, still screaming in pain. Censeredchy, Drinker of Hate walks in his his hands in the air. He walks over and takes Brian's seat. Zim runs around across the back of the classroom. Censeredchy glances around.
Dib: Ms. Bitters! Are there really underground classes?
Zim (in background): Why does it hurt!?!
Ms. Bitters: Sure, whatever...
Zim lies on one of the tables at the back of the classroom screaming, writhing around in pain. He rolls off of the table and hits a bookcase, which falls over. Cut to Zim's home. Zim is in the transmission chamber of his lab. The transmission screen displays life-size marionette puppets of the Tallest being controlled by the real Tallest from behind a couch. Zim is badly burned. GIR watches something on another smaller view screen.
Zim: My Tallest, please excuse my appearance-
Voice from monitor that GIR watches: Dirt! Dirt!!
Zim: ...I mean no disrespect. A new-
GIR stands up and grabs the monitor screen.
GIR: No! You're not dirt!
Zim: Be quiet!
GIR sits back down. The monitor GIR was watching is now in static.
Zim: My Tallest, a new child attacked me with meat! My conclusion: She's in love with me!
The Tallest giggle from behind the couch. Zim paces around the platform in the Transmission Chamber.
Zim: This my prove valuable as I can us the child to learn more about human affection!
Red makes his marionette punch the head off of the Purple marionette. While Zim's back is turned, the real Purple lifts up from behind the couch looking at the decapitated puppet.
Zim: ...which from what I have been able to determine is pain based.
Red pushes down on Purple's head so it rests over the decapitated Purple puppet. Purple groans. Red grabs the strings that control the Purple puppet.
Purple: Um, that's great Zim. Sounds great.
Red makes the Purple marionette's arms flail. Red laughs.
Purple: Don't worry, that's just my arms flailing and giggling.
Red makes the Purple marionette punch Purple in the face.
Purple: Stop it!
Red makes the Purple marionette punch Purple in the face again.
Purple: Stop it!
Zim: And once I am done with the child, I will destroy her! And that sure would be neat!
Purple: Okay Zim...
Red makes the Purple marionette punch Purple in the face.
Purple: Well...
Red makes the Purple marionette punch Purple in the face.
Purple: We have another call.
GIR waves to them. The transmission goes into static. Cut to the Massive deck. Red and Purple stand up, laughing. Red pats Purple on the shoulder. The Purple marionette falls off of the couch. The beeping of another transmission coming through is heard.
Red: Hey! We really do have another call...
The view screen on the Massive displays Tak (without her skool girl disguise). Cut to the skool playground the next day. Dib and Tak can be seen sitting on a ledge. Dib takes a bite out of a Valentine's Day meat slab and offers some to Tak. She declines. Gretchen watches through a reflection in a puddle and into a hanker chief.
Dib: No, it's just I'm not used to people being interested in my paranormal studies. As for Zim, well-
Zim runs up and shoves Dib off of the ledge and into the bushes. Dib groans.
Zim: I have come to accept your feelings for me, I congratulate you for acknowledging my superiority in choosing me as your love pig. Feel honored!
Awkward silence ensues. Crickets chirp. An eagle screeches and a cat meows. Tak pulls out Poop BBQ sauce. She squirts Zim with it. Zim falls to the ground, screaming. Smoke rises from his body.
Tak: Maybe you really are an alien like Dib says. A horribly disguised, disgusting, horrible one.
Zim: Nonsense! Despite his huge head, the Dib monkey is quite stupid.
Dib: My head's not big!
Zim: Now prepare your brain filthy beast of meat and hair.
Zim Lifts up Tak from the ledge.
Zim: Your magical love adventure begins now!
Zim sets Tak down. Tak points at Zim and laughs. Zim examines himself.
Zim: Hmm? Hmmm?
Tak laughs some more. Zim starts laughing too. Tak points at Zim with both of her hands. Zim and Tak continue laughing. Tak grabs a nearby trashcan and shoves it over Zim, then kicks him away. Tak and Dib laugh. A montage of Zim trying to get Tak's attention begins. Tak sits at a table in the cafeteria. Zim slides up next to her holding a muffin. Tak squirts Zim with juice and he falls down, smoke rising from him. Cut to Tak opening her locker. She finds a slab of meat with a bow on it and a note attached that says 'To: Tak from Zim.' Zim peaks over from behind the lockers then hides behind the lockers and grins. Tak grabs Zim. Cut to Tak throwing Zim out of the front door of the skool with the meat strapped to his head with the bow. He screams and runs, smoke rising from his head. Cut to Tak sitting in class. A present appears at her side being held up by a mechanical claw coming out of a device Zim is holding. Tak glances over at Zim. Cut to the class walking out of the classroom. Zim stumbles out of the class with the present shoved over his head and the claw wrapped around his body. Cut to Tak walking home from skool. Zim stands behind a wall in an intersection up head with some flowers in his hands. He runs around the intersection to meet up with Tak, but instead finds an attack dog. Zim drops the flowers and runs and Tak watches from on top of the wall. Cut to a shot of Zim shoved in a mail box as Tak walks by. Cut to the skool hallways. Tak walks down the hall with Zim following her. Zim holds a gigantic stack of books. Zim looses balance and falls, dropping the books. One flies up in the air and crashes down on Zim's head. Cut to Zim sitting in the cafeteria, looking beat up. Tak dumps a tray of cafeteria food on his head and his head starts smoking. Cut to Zim opening the front door of his house and walking inside. Smoke rises from him and he holding a note. GIR (out of disguise) stands on his head. The acne blast commercial plays on the TV. We see Zim from GIR's perspective (upside down).
GIR: Your on fire!
Zim: Am I? Ah well. GIR, I feel I now know enough about human affection.
Zim shuts the door.
Zim: I hate it! Especially the part with the beans! Our friend Tak is no longer useful to me.
The doorbell rings. Zim spins around and the camera angle goes right side up again. A panel appears on the door. Zim places his hand on the panel and the door becomes invisible to him (but not to whoever is on the other side of the door). Tak stands on the other side of the door tapping her foot impatiently. Zim glances at GIR. GIR back flips into his dog suit and zips it up.
Acne blast commercial kid: Now my life is a hideous montage of humiliation and shame!
Zim opens the door. MiMi whooshes inside, moving around the house in a blur of motion. MiMi stops next to GIR and squints her eyes. MiMi then moves to Tak's side. Tak's eyes flash.
Zim: Oooo....kaaay... Tak, I'm glad you stopped by, it gives me a chance to end our hideous relationship...
Zim holds out the note, revealing that it says 'Kick me! Love Tak!' Zim rips up the note.
Zim: ...and enjoy your shrill cry in having been rejected by Zim!
Zim throws the ripped up pieces of the note into the air.
Tak: You have got... to be kidding.
Zim: I assure you, I am very serious. Now cry! Cry like you've never cried... before.
Tak starts laughing evilly and insanely. The sound of an electronic hum begins. Tak and MiMi become static-y and their disguises disappear, revealing that Tak is an Irken and MiMi is a modified SIR unit.
Zim: De... Whu... You! You're Irken! What is this!?!
Tak: You're a bigger fool than I ever imagined.
Zim: Huh?
Tak: You're a bigger fool than I ever imagined.
Zim: Eh?
Tak: You're confused. Allow me to explain.
Flashback to Devastis.
Tak (voice over): It was 50 years ago on the Irken military training planet Devastis.
Irkens wait in long lines to get inside a structure on Devastis.
Tak (voice over): I'd been waiting years to take my final test to become one of the Irken elite soldiers and should the need arrive, one of the invaders.
There is a long tube-like structure where the Irkens take the test. A hover screen with the words 'test... then poop!' on it hovers by and an Irken exits one of the many doors of the testing structure excitedly. Inside one of the segments of the testing structure, a tube places Tak inside. Tak adjusts one of her boots. Outside, Zim runs up to a snack machine on the wall of the testing structure. A tube-like device slithers out of Zim's utility pack and slides into a receptor on the snack machine. A small mechanical claw grips the snack and lifts it up, but then stops moving. The tube-like device retracts back into Zim's backpack. Zim grunts and kicks the snack machine. Nothing. Zim grunts and pounds on the machine. Still nothing. Zim groans. His mechanical spider legs extend and go into laser cutting tool formation, spewing out beams at the snack machine as Zim yells. Still nothing. Zim runs away and comes back in a huge Maim Bot, laughing. Zim lifts up the gun hand of the Maim Bot and blasts the machine, causing a huge explosion. Many Irkens turn to look at the explosion from far away. From a view in space, the lights on half of Devastis go out. The whole area is wrecked. Tak runs to the door of the testing room and pulls on it, but it doesn't budge.
Tak: No! Nooo!! Somebody help me! The door's stuck! I'll miss my test!
Zim stands nearby holding his snack food. He takes a bite of it.
Zim: Mmmmm, mmmmmm! Snack!
Tak: Help! Help!
Zim walks away. Tak pounds on the door.
Tak (voice over): You blew the power block for the entire half of the planet, but the testing went on uninterrupted on the other side!
Cut to the other side of the planet, where everything is fine. An Irken ship flies by. Cut to Tak standing and pleading before an Irken Control Brain.
Tak (voice over): I pleaded with the control brain to let me take the test. But she said I'd have to wait another 70 years!
Cut to Tak with a mop and bucket on planet Dirt. The wreckage of a Spittle Runner can be seen in the background.
Tak (voice over): I was placed on a janitorial squad. And then sent to planet Dirt! I escaped and I began my long search for the mysterious person who caused the blackout and ruined my life!
The flashback ends.
Tak: I eventually tracked you to this horrible place and took that rich weenie human as my false father!
Zim: Yes, yes, so you blame me for your horrible life, blah, blah, big deal!
Tak: This is about taking your mission Zim, not revenge!
Zim: You're after revenge!?!
Tak: No! It's not about revenge! It's about taking what is rightfully mine!
Tak shoves Zim and walks towards him.
Tak: I should've been an Invader!
Tak shoves Zim and walks towards him.
Tak: I should've been part of the Great Assigning! I shouldn't have to be stealing this planet from you!
Zim lifts up a robot bee.
Zim: You're after my robot bee!!!
Tak: NO! Listen to me! Listen... carefully!
Zim rubs chin.
Zim: Mmm mmm mmmm... Hmmmm...
Tak: I'm a better invader than you'll ever be! I blend in perfectly! The plan I have in store for this nasty rock will so impress the Tallest that they'll have no choice but to make me an invader!
Zim: What is this!?! And what is this plan?
Tak laughs.
Zim: Yes, yes, I'm a master of comedy, now tell me this plan!
Tak: Part one involves crippling your base so you can only watch!
Tak shoves Zim to the floor.
Tak: As I ruin your life!
MiMi leaps forward. MiMi's head opens and robotic insects fly out and attach to the wiring of Zim's ceiling. Electricity pours out and a wave of energy flows through the base.
Zim: My beautiful base!
Tak: Part 2 is-
Zim: No! My beautiful base! No!
Tak: Part 2 is-
Zim: No! My beautiful base, no!
Tak: Part 2 is-
Zim: No!!!
Tak: Part-
Zim: No!
Tak: Okay, I'm-
Zim: No!
Tak: Okay, I'm leaving now.
Zim: But you didn't tell me your plan.
Tak shakes her head. Robotic spider legs extend from her Irken Utility pack. They go into laser cutting tool formation, only pointing backwards. GIR (who is no longer in disguise) hops away as the lasers fire and blast a large hole in Zim's house. The spider legs retract into Tak's backpack. Tak leaps backwards and becomes invisible. GIR walks back up. MiMi hops backwards into Zim's yard and spins around violently and making a blade-like motion. The heads of the lawn gnomes fall off. MiMi hops away. GIR's head falls off. Zim's robot bee flies out through the hole in his house.
Zim: Noooooo!!!
Ms. Bitters: No!
The squirrels hop away and Dib looks at Ms. Bitters. Ms. Bitters stands up.
Ms. Bitters: No! Noo!!
Ms. Bitters holds the phone away from her ears. The sound of pig squeals can be heard on the other end of the phone. She puts the phone back up to her face.
Ms. Bitters: You'll pay for this one!
Ms. Bitters hangs up the phone. It sets on fire and a soul rises from it. The burning phone lowers into Ms. Bitters' desk and a covering closes behind it.
Ms. Bitters: Class, despite my moral outrage, the Skool principal is allowing you to celebrate Valentine's Day this year.
Alex leaps out of her seat. Her pencil flies out of her hands and spins in the air while her eyes turn into heart shapes. The class cheers. Chunk rips his desk from the floor. Zita, Mathew P. Mathers III, and Keef fly through the air. Most of the children get out of their desks. Melvin holds a heart shaped balloon that says 'Happy Valentines Day' on it. Carl sneaks up behind Melvin and wiggles his fingers. He grabs the edge of Melvin's underwear (which are labeled 'Melvin' and pulls them up over Melvin's head and balloon, sticking the balloon to his head. Aki summersaults across the floor as Gretchen runs over the empty desks. A paper airplane soars by Dib and Spoo gets thrown against Rob's desk. Brian sits at his desk with balls of crumpled paper. He flicks them off of his desk and then cheers. A book gets thrown against the wall. Zita flies down into her desk then sticks her tongue out. A tomato hits the wall. Several balls of crumpled paper hit Dib. The children are now back at their desks.
Ms. Bitters: Go ahead! Pass out your Valentine's meat slabs! It's traditional...
The Letter M opens the lid to a box of meat resting on the floor between his desk and Tae's. Tae starts to pull out slabs of meat. The children open their desks and pull out meat. A slab of meat slides down the screen. The children get out of their desks to pass out meat (except for Zim and Dib). Gretchen walks over to Dib's desk with an arm full of meat slabs.
Zim: I left my meat at home.
Aki walks overt to Zim with a tray full of heart shaped meat. She places the tray on his desk.
Zim: Sorry, I... I sorta forgot it. GET THAT OUTTA MY FACE!
Zim hits Aki's meat tray, making the meat get all over her. Zim cowers and flicks away one piece of meat that landed on his desk. The two squirrels run by on the window ledge. Gretchen places one of her meat slabs on Dib's desk. She starts piling up the rest of the meat on Dib's desk. Dib raises his hand.
Dib: Ms. Bitters! I read that long ago people used to give out cards and candy on Valentine's Day. How did the whole meat thing get started?
Ms. Bitters: You don't wanna know.
Gretchen continues piling meat on Dib's desk.
Ms. Bitters: I had a Valentine once.
An alarm goes off and a red light coming out of the ceiling flashes. Ms. Bitters talks on a new rotary phone.
Ms. Bitters: Ehh, another one?
Ms. Bitters hangs up the phone and it burns as well, and two souls escapes it. The burning phone lowers into her desk. No one is in their desk except for Zim, Dib, and Spoo. Everyone else is standing towards the back of the classroom. Alex chews on meat. All the desks have meat on them.
Ms. Bitters: To celebrate overcrowding in skool, a new student will be joining the class.
A huge futuristic jet lands in front of the window. The force of the jet landing causes Spoo to shake. The jet has a picture of a hot dog on it and is labeled 'DELISHUS WEENIE' in various places. The children gather at the window. The hatch of the jet opens and Tak walks out. Her cat MiMi slithers to her side with ghost like movements. It slithers to the window ledge and walks along it. MiMi sits down and looks at Dib. MiMi then slithers away. With a flash of light, Tak appears at the entrance to the classroom.
Tak: Hi! My name's Tak! I'm new here!
Children: Hello, Tak!
The jet takes off, causing pieces of paper to fall from the ceiling in the classroom. Tak marches inside.
Tak: My dad's the head of the Deelishus Weenie corporation! That was his jet out there, so I brought Valentine's wieners for everyone, hahaha!
Tak reaches into her backpack and pulls out a weenie, and her backpack drops to the ground and starts shooting out hundreds of weenies. They crash into a huge pile in the center of the classroom, knocking all the desks over. The Letter M cheers and a weenie hits him in the eye. Keef, Alex, Penny, Sara, Aki, and Melvin dive into the pile of weenies.
Children: Yeah! Wieners!
Weenies start crawling across the floor towards Smolga. They start crawling up her.
Smolga: Wieners ROCK!
Smolga collapses. The children begin eating the wieners. Tak hops onto Ms. Bitters' desk holding a sheet of paper. She points to Zim.
Tak: 'Cept that kid.
Zim: Weenies shmeenies! Zim needs no meats!
Tak: For him, I have prepared a poem!
Tak clears her throat.
Sara: Looks like Zim has a girl friend!
Sara takes a bite out of a weenie. Tak's hands shake as she looks angrily at Sara.
Tak: It's not nice...
Tak tears the poem in half.
Tak: ...to embarrass people! You should apologize and... eat your eraser!
A light flashes in Tak's eyes.
Sara: Yes Tak! I'm sorry Zim!
Sara take a bite out of a giant eraser. Tak holds up the two halves of the poem and reads them.
Tak: For longer than I can remember, I've been looking for someone like you....
Suddenly, all the desks are back in place and the children are sitting in them. Everyone looks at Zim.
Tak: Someone with a head like yours and a torso too. Birds sing and you're gonna pay, the end!
Tak drops the pieces of paper.
Tak: Here's some meat covered in barbeque sauce!
Tak tosses the meat at Zim. Smoke rises from him and he starts to scream. Dib points and makes some kind of gawking noise. Zim falls over and Ms. Bitters stands up.
Ms. Bitters: Thanks, Tak. That was horrible. Now, you'll need a place to sit.
Ms. Bitters points her finger at the students, moving it around trying to decide on one. She points to Rob.
Ms. Bitters: You! You're being transferred to the underground classroom!
Rob's desk lowers into the ground and rises back up without him. Tak rushes over and takes his seat. Ms. Bitters points to Brian.
Ms. Bitters: And you! I'm just tired of you!
Brian's desk lowers down and rises back up without him. His screaming can be heard. Zim leans up against the doorway with the meat on him, still screaming in pain. Censeredchy, Drinker of Hate walks in his his hands in the air. He walks over and takes Brian's seat. Zim runs around across the back of the classroom. Censeredchy glances around.
Dib: Ms. Bitters! Are there really underground classes?
Zim (in background): Why does it hurt!?!
Ms. Bitters: Sure, whatever...
Zim lies on one of the tables at the back of the classroom screaming, writhing around in pain. He rolls off of the table and hits a bookcase, which falls over. Cut to Zim's home. Zim is in the transmission chamber of his lab. The transmission screen displays life-size marionette puppets of the Tallest being controlled by the real Tallest from behind a couch. Zim is badly burned. GIR watches something on another smaller view screen.
Zim: My Tallest, please excuse my appearance-
Voice from monitor that GIR watches: Dirt! Dirt!!
Zim: ...I mean no disrespect. A new-
GIR stands up and grabs the monitor screen.
GIR: No! You're not dirt!
Zim: Be quiet!
GIR sits back down. The monitor GIR was watching is now in static.
Zim: My Tallest, a new child attacked me with meat! My conclusion: She's in love with me!
The Tallest giggle from behind the couch. Zim paces around the platform in the Transmission Chamber.
Zim: This my prove valuable as I can us the child to learn more about human affection!
Red makes his marionette punch the head off of the Purple marionette. While Zim's back is turned, the real Purple lifts up from behind the couch looking at the decapitated puppet.
Zim: ...which from what I have been able to determine is pain based.
Red pushes down on Purple's head so it rests over the decapitated Purple puppet. Purple groans. Red grabs the strings that control the Purple puppet.
Purple: Um, that's great Zim. Sounds great.
Red makes the Purple marionette's arms flail. Red laughs.
Purple: Don't worry, that's just my arms flailing and giggling.
Red makes the Purple marionette punch Purple in the face.
Purple: Stop it!
Red makes the Purple marionette punch Purple in the face again.
Purple: Stop it!
Zim: And once I am done with the child, I will destroy her! And that sure would be neat!
Purple: Okay Zim...
Red makes the Purple marionette punch Purple in the face.
Purple: Well...
Red makes the Purple marionette punch Purple in the face.
Purple: We have another call.
GIR waves to them. The transmission goes into static. Cut to the Massive deck. Red and Purple stand up, laughing. Red pats Purple on the shoulder. The Purple marionette falls off of the couch. The beeping of another transmission coming through is heard.
Red: Hey! We really do have another call...
The view screen on the Massive displays Tak (without her skool girl disguise). Cut to the skool playground the next day. Dib and Tak can be seen sitting on a ledge. Dib takes a bite out of a Valentine's Day meat slab and offers some to Tak. She declines. Gretchen watches through a reflection in a puddle and into a hanker chief.
Dib: No, it's just I'm not used to people being interested in my paranormal studies. As for Zim, well-
Zim runs up and shoves Dib off of the ledge and into the bushes. Dib groans.
Zim: I have come to accept your feelings for me, I congratulate you for acknowledging my superiority in choosing me as your love pig. Feel honored!
Awkward silence ensues. Crickets chirp. An eagle screeches and a cat meows. Tak pulls out Poop BBQ sauce. She squirts Zim with it. Zim falls to the ground, screaming. Smoke rises from his body.
Tak: Maybe you really are an alien like Dib says. A horribly disguised, disgusting, horrible one.
Zim: Nonsense! Despite his huge head, the Dib monkey is quite stupid.
Dib: My head's not big!
Zim: Now prepare your brain filthy beast of meat and hair.
Zim Lifts up Tak from the ledge.
Zim: Your magical love adventure begins now!
Zim sets Tak down. Tak points at Zim and laughs. Zim examines himself.
Zim: Hmm? Hmmm?
Tak laughs some more. Zim starts laughing too. Tak points at Zim with both of her hands. Zim and Tak continue laughing. Tak grabs a nearby trashcan and shoves it over Zim, then kicks him away. Tak and Dib laugh. A montage of Zim trying to get Tak's attention begins. Tak sits at a table in the cafeteria. Zim slides up next to her holding a muffin. Tak squirts Zim with juice and he falls down, smoke rising from him. Cut to Tak opening her locker. She finds a slab of meat with a bow on it and a note attached that says 'To: Tak from Zim.' Zim peaks over from behind the lockers then hides behind the lockers and grins. Tak grabs Zim. Cut to Tak throwing Zim out of the front door of the skool with the meat strapped to his head with the bow. He screams and runs, smoke rising from his head. Cut to Tak sitting in class. A present appears at her side being held up by a mechanical claw coming out of a device Zim is holding. Tak glances over at Zim. Cut to the class walking out of the classroom. Zim stumbles out of the class with the present shoved over his head and the claw wrapped around his body. Cut to Tak walking home from skool. Zim stands behind a wall in an intersection up head with some flowers in his hands. He runs around the intersection to meet up with Tak, but instead finds an attack dog. Zim drops the flowers and runs and Tak watches from on top of the wall. Cut to a shot of Zim shoved in a mail box as Tak walks by. Cut to the skool hallways. Tak walks down the hall with Zim following her. Zim holds a gigantic stack of books. Zim looses balance and falls, dropping the books. One flies up in the air and crashes down on Zim's head. Cut to Zim sitting in the cafeteria, looking beat up. Tak dumps a tray of cafeteria food on his head and his head starts smoking. Cut to Zim opening the front door of his house and walking inside. Smoke rises from him and he holding a note. GIR (out of disguise) stands on his head. The acne blast commercial plays on the TV. We see Zim from GIR's perspective (upside down).
GIR: Your on fire!
Zim: Am I? Ah well. GIR, I feel I now know enough about human affection.
Zim shuts the door.
Zim: I hate it! Especially the part with the beans! Our friend Tak is no longer useful to me.
The doorbell rings. Zim spins around and the camera angle goes right side up again. A panel appears on the door. Zim places his hand on the panel and the door becomes invisible to him (but not to whoever is on the other side of the door). Tak stands on the other side of the door tapping her foot impatiently. Zim glances at GIR. GIR back flips into his dog suit and zips it up.
Acne blast commercial kid: Now my life is a hideous montage of humiliation and shame!
Zim opens the door. MiMi whooshes inside, moving around the house in a blur of motion. MiMi stops next to GIR and squints her eyes. MiMi then moves to Tak's side. Tak's eyes flash.
Zim: Oooo....kaaay... Tak, I'm glad you stopped by, it gives me a chance to end our hideous relationship...
Zim holds out the note, revealing that it says 'Kick me! Love Tak!' Zim rips up the note.
Zim: ...and enjoy your shrill cry in having been rejected by Zim!
Zim throws the ripped up pieces of the note into the air.
Tak: You have got... to be kidding.
Zim: I assure you, I am very serious. Now cry! Cry like you've never cried... before.
Tak starts laughing evilly and insanely. The sound of an electronic hum begins. Tak and MiMi become static-y and their disguises disappear, revealing that Tak is an Irken and MiMi is a modified SIR unit.
Zim: De... Whu... You! You're Irken! What is this!?!
Tak: You're a bigger fool than I ever imagined.
Zim: Huh?
Tak: You're a bigger fool than I ever imagined.
Zim: Eh?
Tak: You're confused. Allow me to explain.
Flashback to Devastis.
Tak (voice over): It was 50 years ago on the Irken military training planet Devastis.
Irkens wait in long lines to get inside a structure on Devastis.
Tak (voice over): I'd been waiting years to take my final test to become one of the Irken elite soldiers and should the need arrive, one of the invaders.
There is a long tube-like structure where the Irkens take the test. A hover screen with the words 'test... then poop!' on it hovers by and an Irken exits one of the many doors of the testing structure excitedly. Inside one of the segments of the testing structure, a tube places Tak inside. Tak adjusts one of her boots. Outside, Zim runs up to a snack machine on the wall of the testing structure. A tube-like device slithers out of Zim's utility pack and slides into a receptor on the snack machine. A small mechanical claw grips the snack and lifts it up, but then stops moving. The tube-like device retracts back into Zim's backpack. Zim grunts and kicks the snack machine. Nothing. Zim grunts and pounds on the machine. Still nothing. Zim groans. His mechanical spider legs extend and go into laser cutting tool formation, spewing out beams at the snack machine as Zim yells. Still nothing. Zim runs away and comes back in a huge Maim Bot, laughing. Zim lifts up the gun hand of the Maim Bot and blasts the machine, causing a huge explosion. Many Irkens turn to look at the explosion from far away. From a view in space, the lights on half of Devastis go out. The whole area is wrecked. Tak runs to the door of the testing room and pulls on it, but it doesn't budge.
Tak: No! Nooo!! Somebody help me! The door's stuck! I'll miss my test!
Zim stands nearby holding his snack food. He takes a bite of it.
Zim: Mmmmm, mmmmmm! Snack!
Tak: Help! Help!
Zim walks away. Tak pounds on the door.
Tak (voice over): You blew the power block for the entire half of the planet, but the testing went on uninterrupted on the other side!
Cut to the other side of the planet, where everything is fine. An Irken ship flies by. Cut to Tak standing and pleading before an Irken Control Brain.
Tak (voice over): I pleaded with the control brain to let me take the test. But she said I'd have to wait another 70 years!
Cut to Tak with a mop and bucket on planet Dirt. The wreckage of a Spittle Runner can be seen in the background.
Tak (voice over): I was placed on a janitorial squad. And then sent to planet Dirt! I escaped and I began my long search for the mysterious person who caused the blackout and ruined my life!
The flashback ends.
Tak: I eventually tracked you to this horrible place and took that rich weenie human as my false father!
Zim: Yes, yes, so you blame me for your horrible life, blah, blah, big deal!
Tak: This is about taking your mission Zim, not revenge!
Zim: You're after revenge!?!
Tak: No! It's not about revenge! It's about taking what is rightfully mine!
Tak shoves Zim and walks towards him.
Tak: I should've been an Invader!
Tak shoves Zim and walks towards him.
Tak: I should've been part of the Great Assigning! I shouldn't have to be stealing this planet from you!
Zim lifts up a robot bee.
Zim: You're after my robot bee!!!
Tak: NO! Listen to me! Listen... carefully!
Zim rubs chin.
Zim: Mmm mmm mmmm... Hmmmm...
Tak: I'm a better invader than you'll ever be! I blend in perfectly! The plan I have in store for this nasty rock will so impress the Tallest that they'll have no choice but to make me an invader!
Zim: What is this!?! And what is this plan?
Tak laughs.
Zim: Yes, yes, I'm a master of comedy, now tell me this plan!
Tak: Part one involves crippling your base so you can only watch!
Tak shoves Zim to the floor.
Tak: As I ruin your life!
MiMi leaps forward. MiMi's head opens and robotic insects fly out and attach to the wiring of Zim's ceiling. Electricity pours out and a wave of energy flows through the base.
Zim: My beautiful base!
Tak: Part 2 is-
Zim: No! My beautiful base! No!
Tak: Part 2 is-
Zim: No! My beautiful base, no!
Tak: Part 2 is-
Zim: No!!!
Tak: Part-
Zim: No!
Tak: Okay, I'm-
Zim: No!
Tak: Okay, I'm leaving now.
Zim: But you didn't tell me your plan.
Tak shakes her head. Robotic spider legs extend from her Irken Utility pack. They go into laser cutting tool formation, only pointing backwards. GIR (who is no longer in disguise) hops away as the lasers fire and blast a large hole in Zim's house. The spider legs retract into Tak's backpack. Tak leaps backwards and becomes invisible. GIR walks back up. MiMi hops backwards into Zim's yard and spins around violently and making a blade-like motion. The heads of the lawn gnomes fall off. MiMi hops away. GIR's head falls off. Zim's robot bee flies out through the hole in his house.
Zim: Noooooo!!!
