OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes, Season 1

OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes is an American superhero animated comedy show created by Ian Jones-Quartey. It follows titular character, K.O., and his efforts to become the world's greatest hero, while working at Gar's Bodega (run by the no-nonsense Mr. Gar), a hero supply shop in the Lakewood Plaza strip mall. Alongside him are his best friends and co-workers Radicles, an apathetic, narcissistic alien, and Enid, a levelheaded big sister-like employee, as well as other heroes who work and frequent the area.

Mr. Cardsley III:
Put them down, and back away. I’ll take it from here.

Guard:
[saluting] Yes, Mr. Cardsley III. [leaves]

Mr. Cardsley:
[to Dendy and K.O.] Now, now, it’s alright. Did you get lost? Tours are back out there, kids!

K.O.:
We are not here for no tour! Well, not today. Right, Dendy?

Dendy:
That is correct.

K.O.:
In fact, we got a bone to pick with you, mister!

Mr. Cardsley:
Is that so? Alright, I’m all ears.

K.O.:
Mr. Cardsley! All our lives we’ve loved Pow Cards! [pulls out his collection] See?

Mr. Cardsley:
Oh. Very nice.

K.O.:
But then, we found out you don’t let Kappas be recognized as heroes! And that’s the most messed up thing I ever heard! So fix it, (sobbing) plee-eee-ase.

Mr. Cardsley:
Well what’s there to fix? I mean, why in the world would Kappas need Pow Cards?

K.O.:
Be...cause! It’s bad to leave them out! Don’t be bad!

Mr. Cardsley:
And you’re asking we include them for...what, exactly? Drowning people? Honestly, I’ve never seen a Kappa do anything of significance. Heroic or otherwise, they’re just little monsters. And though we appreciate your feedback here at Pow Industries, this is the system we’ve used for decades. There’s no need to change a thing.

K.O.:
But can’t you see how much it upsets us?!

Mr. Cardsley:
(sighs) Look, I'm sorry you’re so upset, kid, but it’s the simple truth.

K.O.:
It’s nowhere near the truth! My friend Dendy here does great things all the time! And- and-! ...Do you even know any Kappas, Mr. Cardsley?

Mr. Cardsley:
I...uhhh...Guards!

Guards:
Yessir!

Mr. Cardsley:
Please escort these trespassers off the premises.

Guards:
Yessir!

K.O.:
Still? After all my tears?

Dendy:
Please wait...Once more.

Guards:
Aw, c’mon! Just...wanna cuff...so baa-aa-aad! [They roll away sobbing]

Dendy:
Mr. Cardsley. Have you ever considered the reason the world does not view Kappas as heroic is because we don’t have any heroes of our own to look up to? And for those that are out there doing something you’d call noteworthy, we’ll never get to notice, if your computer doesn’t, either. All I request is for us to be given a chance.

Mr. Cardsley:
(sighs) Fine. If you insist on learning the hard way. Carla!

Carla:
[gets brought down on a crane] Greetings, Mr. Cardsley!

Mr. Cardsley:
Carla, my trusty engineer. Can you temporarily allow the hero-puter to detect the Kappa species?

Carla:
I’d love to! Just gimme one minute… [A cord shoots from Dendy's hack-pack and connects to the computer.] Ooh!

Dendy:
Pardon, I’ve already written an override code for your system.

Carla:
I...just making sure you’re not trying any funny business! (chuckles) It would’ve taken me forever to write this code! Please, press away!

Dynamite Watkins:
I’m Dynamite Watkins! Your host for tonight--

Crinkly Wrinkly:
My neck!

Dynamite Watkins:
For tonight’s highly-anticipated retrospective! Fans of the smash hit TV series, “OK K.O.: Let’s Be Heroes,” prepare to lose your cool! Joining us today is… Enid! [Enid comes onstage] Rad! [Comes onstage as well]

Rad:
Please donate to my charity-- Tiny Clothes for Tiny Dinos.

Dynamite Watkins:
And K.O.! [Audience cheers louder as he comes onstage]

Audience:
K.O.! K.O.! K.O.!

Dynamite Watkins:
Wow! [K.O. gives kisses] K.O. is clearly the crowd favorite. No surprise there. That kid’s a show-stealer! So, “OK K.O.” has taken the world by storm! It’s number one on every network. (Dramatically) And in all our hearts. Did you three ever expect it to become such an explosive success?!

Enid:
Well, I don’t know about the others, but from the very beginning, I could just, like, sense the material was really special, you know?

Rad:
Yeah, I have--

Dynamite Watkins:
Well, that’s great. I’ve actually got a relic that can take us all back to the beginning you spoke of. The original pilot-- [shows the relic] "Lakewood Plaza Turbo"!

Enid, K.O., and Rad:
What?!

Dynamite Watkins:
That’s right-- the pilot! And I don’t mean the sap that flies your plane. [Displays what a pilot is] I’m talking a short sample episode that’s made to test the waters and see if it’s something people would want to watch more of. Right, K.O.?

K.O.:
Well, yeah, but… we’ve come a really long way since the pilot, and it’s not at all representative of our current work, so…

Dynamite Watkins:
Whoo, "Lakewood Plaza Turbo"!

Rad:
Stupid mobile suburbs! [He and Red enter Rumble Range] Now that we’re out of that maze, there’s no way I’ll lose. [Catches up to Red]

Red Action:
Man, you must like the taste of my dust!

Rad:
[Licks the dust] Not bad. Could use some more debris an-- Hey! (grumbles) I’ll show you! [Tries to move his stick-shift higher] No! I’m already going as fayste as I can! [Slowing down] We’re already going through Rumble Range! At this rate, Red’s gonna win. Eh. What the-- [Sees the Dendysoft Help System] I don’t remember adding this. [Pushes a button where a holographic form of Dendy appears.]

Dendy:
Greetings, operator.

Rad:
Aah! Demon! Don’t eat-- Dendy?!

Dendy:
A facsimile of Dendy, and as such, I’m programmed to help in a variety of ways.

Rad:
You snuck into my van and messed with my stuff?!

Dendy:
Please select a--

Rad:
I don’t want your help! [Smashes the help system] I just gotta… um… That’s it! The volcano! While she’s comin’ round the mountain, I’ll be going over it. I’m a smart booooooy! [Drives to the volcano]

Enid:
[As a note] False.

Rad:
Time to fly. Launching the Rad Wing. [The wing, which is just a giant paper airplane, replaces the rocket launcher. Flies over the volcano.] Engaging thrusters. Y-e-e-es! I did it! I-- [The thruster burns the wing.] Noooooooooo! [The van falls into the volcano, plummeting to the lava.] Aaaaaaaaaaah!

Dendy:
Perhaps I can be of assistance.

Rad:
Demon! Dendy? How long have you been there?

Dendy:
The entire time.

Rad:
[grabs Dendy] Well, don’t just sit there adorably. Help!

Dendy:
You… want my help?

Rad:
Oh, Dendy, I shouldn’t have refused your help before. And now it’s my fault we’re gonna take a lava bath. I’ll do anything to atone.

Dendy:
Stick your finger in the ignition.

Rad:
Okay-- if it’ll atone.

Dendy:
No, Radicles. You can use your beam power to fuel the zero-point energy engine I secretly installed.

K.O.:
[As a note] I helped!

Rad:
Oh, okay. That makes sense. [Takes off the keys and stick his finger to the ignition and uses his beam power. The van levitates away from the lava.] I did it! I did it, I did it, I did it!

Dendy:
Aren’t you forgetting something?

Rad:
Oh, yeah. Y-You, uh… helped.

Dendy:
The race!

Rad:
(gasps deeply) [Drives around the volcano] But there’s no way we’ll catch up! [His van flies through]

Dendy:
That’s not entirely true.
