When Nebulous Industries announces they are recruiting Rabbids for a mission to Mars, Scribbles doesn’t think twice. As a genius, misunderstood Rabbid, he has dreams of going to the red planet. After successfully passing the tests, he takes off with three other Rabbids: Disco, the lively queen and only-female loving of the dancefloor aerobic, Cosmo, the pilot with self-confidence issues who wears a helmet like as an astronaut, and lastly Mini, a tiny cutest Rabbid who HATES being mistaken for a kid, except for Swimmer, the swimming rabbid But as this unlikely team leaves the Earth for Mars, a more sinister plot reveals itself.

Patrick: Nebulous Industries is best known producing high-end tech. Loving your phones. So, why Mars? Why now?!
Frank Nebula: Well, someone needs to step up and go to Mars. We thought should be a company with a great moral and environmental record like--
Roger Peacock: Daphne, I ain't seen you on Sunny Love Beach since that shark ate your--
Frank Nebula: And in order to minimize danger to human life, we're sending, Rabbids!
Patrick: I misheard you. It sound like you were sending Rabbids.
Frank Nebula: That is what I said!
Roger Peacock: Oh I love you Daphne. But I miss your evil twin sister too.

John: Uh, I found Beardy here outside.
Frank Nebula: Hmm. This one looks different somehow.
Frank Nebula: For a minute there, I thought there were signs of, intelligence.
John: [chuckles] Signs of intelligence? I think the boss has been working too hard.
Patrick: Today we have the privilege to be shown around Nebulous HQ by the great Frank Nebula himself, as he prepares to launch for Mars in just two weeks' time. Mr. Nebula, are you okay with answering some questions from our viewers?
Frank Nebula: Of course, Patrick. Fire away!
Patrick: Leann in Texas asks, "Why use Rabbids? They're really stupid."
Frank Nebula: Well Leann, I have more faith in Rabbids than most. They're not the smartest, but our rigorous testing will help find the best candidates for the mission. And our Nebulous tech and our autopilot programs can do any thinking they can't manage themselves. The advantage is that they're practically indestructible. They can survive the radiation on Mars without the need for full space suits.
Patrick: Fred from Paris asks, "Why not robots? Rabbids are the stupidest--" Why not robots?!
Frank Nebula: Well, robots can cope with most radiation, but not with extreme cold. It's minus 63 decrease Centigrade on Mars. Our robots shut down at minus-20. Rabbids however, could survive in Antarctica without even a scarf.
Patrick: Wow! Who would have thought Rabbids could be useful? We look forward to seeing if your training program can turn any of them into real rabstronauts.
Frank Nebula: That's nice. Can I use that?
Patrick: A flight simulator?
Frank Nebula: Yep. If there's is a Rabbid capable of flying the ship, we'll find it.
Patrick: And is there?
Frank Nebula: Probably not. But luckily we have the best autopilot system ever designed.
Frank Nebula: Please follow me.

John: Hi.
John: Wow, he hit an ice cream truck! And there isn't even one in the simulation! That is one unlucky Rabbid. Hey! Everyone! I think this Rabbid have drawn some probability equations or whatever! You know, with numbers.
Women 1: Not funny John!
John: What?! They were there! I recognize them from the episode of Sunny Love Beach, with the evil math teacher!
Frank Nebula: Now, the question I get asked most is--
Patrick: Apart from "why are you using Rabbids?"
Frank Nebula: Yes. Is, "is there life on Mars?" The sad answer to that is no, unless they all live underground. Nevertheless, Nebulous Industries has invented a device to send a message to any potential friends out there. And it's totally Rabbid-proof!
Frank Nebula on recording: Greetings from Earth. We come in peace. I'm Frank Nebula, and this is a recording, of the greatest artistic and scientific achievements of humanity.
Frank Nebula: This message of peace is touch-activated. And the built-in camera will beam images of who or whatever activates it to this little screen right here!
John: [sighs heavily] Hmm?
Man camera: Get off me!
Frank Nebula: That's our innovation room. We can't show you in there since it houses the next generation of our top-secret product. But this coming out of it isn't a secret. This device is designed to start a process called terraforming. It uses our Nebulous technology to gently heat the Martian surface and oxygenate the atmosphere on a microscopic level, which eventually will allow humans to live on Mars! And once that's happened, we can start work, building high-tech eco-cities.
Patrick: Thank you Mr. Nebula! We look forward to-- [yelps]
Frank Nebula: Oh, sorry about that. Do you guys want to do another take?

Olivia: Hmm? What's that you're scribbling Scribbles? Probability equations?!

Olivia: Excuse me Scribbles. Can I have a word?
Olivia: [laughs] Oh sorry. I've been keeping an eye on you and I think you're, clever!
Announcer: Next selection test beginning in five minutes. All Rabbid handlers, please gather on the tarmac.

Olivia: Come on little one.
John: One for you.
Olivia: [clears throat] John, right?
Olivia: Erm, hi. My name's is Olivia.
John: Yeah I know.
Olivia: The space helmets are just for publicity shots.
Olivia: They don't actually need them.
John: Oh, ok.
John: Hey give me that back!
John: Why are we sending Rabbids?
John: A load of drunk chimps would do a better job.
Olivia: I don't know.
Olivia: I think we should have a bit of faith in them, like the boss does.
Olivia: Ok, let's see how they cope in zero gravity.
Olivia: Land the plane, quick!

Patrick: It's raining Rabbids! Or at least it is around Nebulous HQ today.
Granny: I mean they didn't say nothin' 'bout it on the forecast-- [Yelps]
Patrick: Woah! You okay ma'am
Frank Nebula: Are these really the only ones left?
Frank Nebula: Well, we need four, so, the one with the helmet looks confident. That'll be our captain! Dancy there looks sociable at least. And keep Cutie. We could sell dolls with that one. Lose Beardy and keep Scuba Boy.
Olivia: I think the beardy one might surprise you sir.
Frank Nebula: Hey! Looks like someone else has some faith in a Rabbid! Okay, Beardy's in. Stay focused team! We launch in two days!
Olivia: I'm so happy for you Scribbles! I wish I could go with you. I wonder what you're gonna find up there.
John: Hey Olivia! Have you seen my phone?!
Olivia: [nervously] Um, that's quite expensive.
Olivia: Wow! You've increased the magnification! What? What are, those? [gasps] They're moving! Is that, life, on Mars?! Mr. Nebula has got to see this!

Frank Nebula: Come in!
Olivia: Sorry for the interruption Mr. Nebula, but I thought you should see these! I think there's life on Mars!
Frank Nebula: Yes. It, looks like that doesn't it?
Olivia: The thing is, I didn't discover it. Scribbles here did. We found an intelligent Rabbid!
Olivia: Um, that's a good thing, isn't it?
Frank Nebula: Of course! But that means Scribbles can't go on the mission.
Olivia: What?!
Frank Nebula: No, no. Too dangerous. Summon security and a Rabbid handler.
Olivia: What?! Why?! I think Scribbles came here on purpose! He wants to go to Mars!
Frank Nebula: Yes! He's a miracle! So you need to study him. You'll need a new one of these so you can access to different parts of the building, now you're off the Mars mission. Congratulations, "Olivia."
John: Rabbid-handling. [yelps]
Frank Nebula: That one's on the mission. That one's off. Freeze it.
John: Freeze it?
Frank Nebula: I'm granting you access to the cryogenic chamber. There's a freezer in the innovation room.
Olivia: [gasps]
Frank Nebula: I'm sorry, but it's the only way.
Olivia: John, please! This is wrong!
John: He's the boss, Olivia. Sorry.
Robot: Step away please. Back off. Unauthorized contact.
Robot: Oh, how cute.
Robot: Drop that weapon immediately!
John: Whoa, whoa, whoa! It's the freeze ray, you paranoid droid! It's the only way to freeze a Rabbid!
Robot: Get inside.
John: I'm sorry about this Scribbles. Olivia liked you, so you're okay with me. But you did get all sniffy when I was watching Sunny Love Beach, so you kind of brought this on yourself, buddy.
John: I thought he'd never leave. Sorry. I had to make it look believable while I waited for its motherboard to freeze. This is cool!
John: [whispers] Stay back.
John: Ahh! Olivia! No, no, NO, WAIT!
Olivia: How could you! Oh, Scribbles! I thought!
John: Oops! Sorry buddy.

John: Hey, remember that episode of Sunny Love Beach, when Roger is--
Olivia: John, I'm afraid I've never watched an episode of Sunny Love Beach.
John: What?!
Olivia: I'm sorry you can't have your dreams Scribbles. I drew this when I was at school. I always wanted to help humanity explore the stars. I thought Mr. Nebula wanted the same things. [scoffs] I guess you can't always get your dreams. [sighs]
John: It's never to late Olivia.
John: I think you should give it a try.
Olivia: You're right!
John: I meant you should try watching Sunny Love Beach?
John: What do you think I meant?!
Olivia: We should at least try making one of our dreams come true! My dream's dead, but yours Scribbles, yours still have a chance!
John: I was gonna suggest we could watch an episode from season eight and then-- Oh boy, we're going do something stupid now aren't we?

John: Shh!
Man 1: Where's that diving mask one?
Man 1: Quick! Get it in the space suit.
Patrick: It's launch day! And we're here live talking to Frank Nebula.
Frank Nebula: This truly feels like a great day! You could say, "It's one small hop for a Rabbid, one giant leap for mankind."
John: Ah! All's well that ends well. Now let's get back to-- Oh, I don't like that look on your face.
Olivia: Something smells fishy. I'm gonna have a look in the boss' office while everyone's busy.
John: No! That's got a state-of-the-art security system! You'd have to be an idiot to try to break in!
Robot: Here you go, cutie pie.
Frank Nebula: One final pep talk before countdown.
Frank Nebula on recording: My dear rabstronauts, humanity places all its-- No, please! Don't get up! Never mind. Good luck!
???: Start the countdown!
Voice: Take-off in ten seconds. Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one! Ignition!
Olivia: What are you doing here?! Go away!
Olivia: Huh, turns out you do have to be an idiot to break in here.
Voice: Intruder alert! Intruder alert! Security Drones have been called.
Olivia: Shh! Ugh! No, no, no!
Robot: False alarm. Rabbid.
Robot: Could you hold this for me?
Other robot: No way! I'd rather be rebooted!
Olivia: [exhales] So let's see. What are you hiding here?
Frank Nebula: The rocket has now left the Earth's gravitational field. Soon, we'll see the Rabbids' unique coping mechanism for traveling at ultra-high speed. Strap in!
Voice: Accelerating to warp speed, in three, two, one!
Frank Nebula: Yes, it surprised us too. At this speed, they'll be approaching Mars in 15 minutes. As the rocket gets further away, there may be some communication disruption from solar flares, so enjoy the show while it lasts!
Olivia: Hey. What's this?
Voice: Running terraforming simulation.
Olivia: The terraforming device is a bomb?!
Olivia: Scribbles!
Frank Nebula: And back to approach speed.
Frank Nebula: Friends, we are nearly on mars!
Voice: Autopilot landing program engaged.
Everyone: [laughing]
Voice: Warning.
Man 3: It's broken the autopilot!
Frank Nebula: What?! But none of them can land the ship without it! They're Rabbids!
Women 1: Solar flare activities rising! We may lose contact any moment sir!
Man 1: It's entered the atmosphere sir!
Frank Nebula: No! Everything I work for!
Olivia: Scribbles! You've got to land the ship!
Olivia: They'll know who you are, but is the only way! you can do it.
Olivia: All of it.
Olivia: Come on Scribbles! Pull up!
Man 1: Yes! You can do it Scribbles!
Patrick: Come on Scribbles!
Frank Nebula: Yay, Scribbles!
Women 1: We did it! We've lost them. A sharp spike in solar flare activity. So no signal will get through for a couple of hours.
Patrick: But at least we saw they landed safely, thanks to that smart beardy one.
Frank Nebula: Yes! I know my faith in the Rabbids would be rewarded. Congratulations! You and your little friend made it! Come and have a celebratory drink in my office.

Olivia: Ahh!
Olivia: Why have you got a jail cell down here?!
Frank Nebula: Because having it out in plain view is bad for PR.
Olivia: What about setting off a bomb on Mars when you know there's alien life out there!
Frank Nebula: That's only bad PR if anyone else finds out about it. And you're locked in here. And your friend Scribbles, well I'm afraid nothing on Earth not even a Rabbid could survive this. As soon as the terraforming device is primed, boom! No more Scribbles and no more Martians.
Olivia: You lied to everyone!
Frank Nebula: Not really. A very big bomb is a terraforming device. The best and quickest to start climate change. Mars warms up and I can start human settlements.
Olivia: But everyone saw the rocket land safely. How are you going to explain the explosion?!
Frank Nebula: Why do you think I send the Rabbids in the first place? When the solar flares clear and we find the planet is a scorched barren wasteland, who are the public going to suspect? A tech genius with an impeccable environmental record, or a crew of the stupidest creatures in the galaxy? Shame about your irritating little beardy friend, but really, it's just business.
Olivia: No please! NOOOOO!

Women 1: The signal's coming back sir.
Frank Nebula: What?! No! That's not RIGHT!
Voice: Terraforming unsuccessful.
Everyone: What?!
Frank Nebula on recording: Greetings from Earth. We come in peace. I'm Frank Nebula, and this is a recording, of the greatest artistic and scientific achievements of humanity.
Roger Peacock: Hey there. My canoe! It's full of, SAND!
Man on TV: But Roger, how will you paddle after the bank robbers now?!
Roger Peacock: Well I reckon I'll just have to hold my breath and paddle her underwater.
Roger Peacock: Oh no! I broke my paddle!
Aliens: Shh!

Frank Nebula: Citizens of Earth, it seems that the terraforming device has been destroyed by a Rabbid, possibly intentionally. A specimen, known here as "Scribbles," has stowed away on the rocket, intent, it would seem, on destroying our entire mission. A human accomplice has also been detained. I won't let this betrayal by a Rabbid, who I perhaps foolishly trusted, destroy our dream of colonizing Mars. I'm Frank Nebula, and I always have a plan B.
Frank Nebula: Thank you my dear friends in the press! I hope you understand that you'll have leave us now.
Frank Nebula: Prepare the interplanetary nuclear missiles! They're in the innovation room! Mars needs terraforming! And if they won't let me do it the cuddly way!
John: Wait, what?! Is that?
On monitor: I'm Frank Nebula, and this is a recording, of the greatest artistic and scientific achievements of humanity. Hey there. My canoe! It's full of, SAND!

Roger Peacock: Bam! Take a pinch of my pecan pie!
Martian King: Bam! Take a pinch of my pecan pie!
Martian King: Hey there Mr. Beard-Face! Mind if I practice my Sunny Love Beach language on ya? I'm a little rusty. Likin' Sunny Love Beach don't make a fella dumb, you know? Well, I reckon it may not be the greatest artistic achievement of your planet, but I'll just take my learnin' where I can. Not just from stuff you'd call smart. Hmm, want a tour?
Martian King: [belching] Pardon me. That tasty little box really didn't sit well with my insides.
Martian King: But Roger Peacock sure turned up at the right time to make me feel better, didn't he? It ain't fancy like your whiz-bang machines, but it sure is pretty.
Martian King: I wouldn't say that. [laughs] That little boogie master just like to strut is all. And your caption? Hmm. Seems a bit attached to that there helmet. You know, sometimes even silly things can help you feel comfortable. And I think that helmet gives Captain Crashpad comfort. And that little one? Why I think you give comfort to that one. Mmm-Hmm. Sure! Because you're the only one who doesn't treat Little Big Eyes like a kid. Aww! That's more like it! Just 'cause folks is different don't mean they're wrong.

Olivia: John! Mr. Nebula's crazy! There's a bomb in the rocket and he set it off!
John: Okay, okay, the good news is, I don't think the bomb worked.
Olivia: Brilliant!
John: Bad news is, I only know that because now he's gonna send nuclear missiles.
Olivia: Is there a way to warn Scribbles?!
John: Not yet. But, between us, I'm sure we can hack this thingy. And by "between us," I, I mean you.

Roger Peacock: Oh, don't you worry Daphne. I'm gonna serve those kidnappers a homemade meal.
Roger Peacock: Okay boys! Who wants a pinch of my--
Olivia: This is a message for Scribbles. I haven't got long.
Olivia: Mr. Nebula is sending missiles to Mars.
Olivia: You've got to get out of there! You've got--
Martian King: Whoa, whoa, whoa! I think Twisty's got the message.
Olivia: We've been cut off.
John: But I, I think you said the important part! Look, I better head back before I'm missed!
Olivia: Hang on! Why is the golden projector filled with episodes of Sunny Love Beach?
John: Uh, yeah. There was kind of a little mix-up. Could happen to anyone.
Frank Nebula: Check the coordinates for-- Well, well. It looks like Olivia's band of rabbles has a new member. Now, if you'll excuse us, we have some nuclear missiles to load.

Martian King: Our friend Mr. Beard Face has been told of some dangerous bang sticks heading our way from Sunny Love Beach planet. So, we all gotta travel there, break them bang sticks, help his friends, and save our planet. Don't you worry friends. I will return soon. Yes, I'll bring y'all some presents.
-[upbeat jingle playing on TV]: ♪ The beach is where the love is ♪
Voice: [glitching] Accelerating to warp speed, in three, two, three, two, three, one!
Martian King: This thing is faaaaast!
Women 1: Mr. Nebula? Something's approaching from Mars. It's, our rocket.
Frank Nebula: That rocket isn't ours anymore. Fire the missile.
Women 1: But, sir--
Frank Nebula: FIRE! FIRE IT NOW!!
Martian King: Oh, come on, Captain. It's just a helmet. Nothin' terrible's gonna happen.
Voice: Missile incoming.
Martian King: Although, I could be wrong.
Martian King: This is bad, right?
Frank Nebula: [sighs] Prepare the remaining missile to launch at Mars as soon as possible. What on!
Martian King: Okay y'all, this might sting a bit.
Frank Nebula: Welcome home, Rabbids.
Olivia: [gasps]
Martian King: Ooh!
John: What the!
Martian King: Hey there, friends of Mr. Beard Face. I'm from Mars.
John: [chuckles nervously]
Olivia: Scribbles!
Frank Nebula: Well well. The world's only intelligent Rabbid, the only scientist to ever outsmart me, and the last Martian in the galaxy, all in one cell!
Martian King: Oh, I'm not the last Martian.
Frank Nebula: You will be in a minute. [chimes] Launch the missile at Mars.
Women 1: Mr. Nebula, there's a Rabbid on the missile.
Frank Nebula: Hello there little guy. Looks like you get to go to Mars after all! Fire!
Voice: Nose cone obstruction.
Frank Nebula: [sighs] I'll deal with it. Just in case you're, thinking of escaping, allow me to introduce my new obliterator droid. I do believe it's the one weapon capable of destroying a Rabbid. Make a move, and we'll find out.
Martian King: So, what's the plan, Mr. Beard Face? Will it be like that episode where Roger Peacock had to hit all them bank robbers with the thing on the end of his arms?
John: You're a fan of Sunny Love Beach?
Martian King: Oh yes! Why, I've loved that show since, hmm, three days ago. It's very good for tummy trouble. [hiccups] If Roger Peacock was here, he'd know what to do.

Frank Nebula: Would you kindly get of my missile, you stupid THING!! [Frank grunting on monitor] Come here!
Man 2: We're ready when you are sir.
John: Belly ATTACK!
Everyone: Yeah!
Martian King: Bam! Take a pinch of my pecan pie!
Everyone: [chuckling]
Man 3: What?!
Everyone: [exclaim] Ahh! Run away!
Frank Nebula: Mobilize all battle droids to the main hall!
Everyone: Yeah!
John: To the right! Uh, do we got a plan B?
Everyone: Ah!
Olivia: Let's go save a planet!
John: Oops! Sorry! A reflex!
John: Whoa!
John: So that's what he calls tummy troubles?
Announcer: -Nose cone clean. Last missile priming for launch.
Frank Nebula: NOOOOOOO!
Olivia: If he gets any bigger, he's going to destroy everything!
Olivia: Scribbles!
Olivia: What is he doing?!
John: He's trying to calm it down with the power of Sunny Love Beach.
Olivia: What?
John: [crying]
Olivia: John, it's just a poster.
John: Just a poster?! It's a limited edition!
John: But that's not the point. Scribbles was about to solve everything.
John: Wait a minute!
John: I know where Sunny Love Beach is filmed! I'll be breaking a restraining order but.
John: Wish me luck!
John: Sunny Love Beach, here we come!
Olivia: We need to distract him until John comes back.
Olivia: Here goes nothing!
Martian King: Hmm?
Olivia: Sorry.
Olivia: Ahhhhhhhh!
Frank Nebula: Let me see if I can't let one of my problems get rid of the other!
Frank Nebula: Open wide!
Frank Nebula: Have it your way! Let's see if Rabbids can survive inside an old lava belly here!
Frank Nebula: You and your stupid friends had one job! Go to Mars and explode the mega bomb! SIMPLE!!
Frank Nebula: I would have been the nice guy who believed in Rabbids, and you would have been the stupid rodents who blew everything up! NO ONE WOULD HAVE QUESTIONED THAT! You were the perfect SCAPEGOATS!
Patrick: Mr. Nebula, you're live on national television.
Frank Nebula: Huh?
Patrick: You've just made some serious revelations.
Frank Nebula: How dare you!
Olivia: Excuse me, sir. Let me just capture this moment!
Frank Nebula: Ahh!
Roger Peacock: Hey, there!
Roger Peacock: I here my number one fan wants an autogra--[whimpers]
Martian King: Roger?
John: Yeah, I never said he was your biggest human fan.
Martian King: Roger Peacock?
Martian King: It is such an honor.
Patrick: So Mr Nebula, we have some questions from our viewers. Leann in Texas asks, "Why are you so mean?!"
John: Yeah. I know we're having a moment here, but can I have my phone back?

John on tv: Oh no! Look over there!
Roger Peacock: Hey there! That's my long-lost-son! And you can't eat him you alien fiend--
Patrick on tv: We're still no news on the whereabouts of disgraced aerospace tycoon, Frank Nebula. His reputation in shatters after--
Martian King: Oh I miss you guys too. Mr. Beard Face and Miss Olivia are building me a rocket, so I'll be home soon. And look at all the Sunny Love Beach merch John's got for y'all!
Olivia: John?
John: Huh?
Olivia: A little help up here?
John: Yeah, yeah! Just gotta watch one more episode. Now I work on the show, it's research.
Olivia: Having some trouble focusing maybe? Just go already. We'll finish later.
