Milo Murphy’s Law

We're the Geckos! We've got class.

We're gonna climb right up your glass!

Go, Geckos!

I never understood why people need a rally to get peppy.

Does that make you feel peppier?

Yeah, it kinda does.

Oh, hey, Melissa. Mind if I join you?

Sure, Bradley, have a seat.

Hello, Milo. Hi, Bradley.

All right listen up, Geckos.

I'm not gonna lie to you.

We're gonna lose today and we're gonna lose hard.

Middletown Middle School has intentionally failed

all its best eighth grade players for six years straight now,

so we're basically playing

against a group of angry adults.

We'll be lucky if we make it out of there with all our limbs.

But that's no reason not to get out there

and give it the old middle school try! It isn't?

If you need me, I'll be in my office staring into space.

Oh, yeah, and in the meantime, let's enjoy some peppy songs

from our Jefferson County Middle School defunded marching band.

Now that makes me feel peppy.

No, Milo, don't tap. Remember what happened last time?

What happened last time?

Oh, now I remember.

Dude, you're on my didgeridoo.

You guys are coming, right? It is my first game as part of the team.

Oh, my gecko, I would love to. I haven't been in years.

Last time he came, there was a llama stampede.

Llama stampede?

You know, they can spit 15 feet.

I haven't been to a game since.

I do get nice thank you notes from the team, though.

You know, for staying away.

Milo and I have had a "Not Football Friday" tradition for years.

"Not Football Friday"?

Yep. We used to bowl, but now we do things

without dangerously heavy round objects. Like, play cards.

It's still safer than bowling!

But it's my first game, guys.

It sounds fun, but I try to support the team by staying away.

Hey, Milo, Coach said you could come to this game,

'cause it's the one game you can't ruin,

on account of we're gonna lose.

Really? Oh, yeah. They're better than us.

Plus, I've got a blockage in my fourth chakra.

Can't argue with a blocked chakra. I'm going!

Sorry, Mort!

No, I don't think that was Murphy's Law. I think that was my chakra.

This is gonna be awesome.

You know how they say the twelfth man is the crowd?

Well, I'm 12.5!

Whoo! It's the wave!

'Course, it works better with the whole crowd.

Are you sure you wanna go to this game?

'Cause we could go to the empty pistachio warehouse and explore.

It's Zack's first game and they're gonna lose.

It'll be great!

You like my new CD?

It's called "Sounds of Disaster."

That was an antique.

This is gonna be fun.

I can't wait to do the wave in public.

Oh, sorry, Diogee. No dogs at the football game. You have to stay home.

Come on in.

Wow, the Tiger fans are certainly excited.

Yeah! Whoo! Go, Tigers!

Yeah!

Yeah!

It's a good thing we're right next to a hospital.

Hey, look! Here come the Geckos!

Has anyone got any... Thank you.

Gecko, Gecko, Gecko, Geck...

Hey, Joni, wanna sit with us?

Hey, Milo. I just got the cast off from last time.

Hi, Principal Milder. Melissa. Milo?

Good to see ya.

I was under the impression you promised Coach Mitchell

you would never show up at a game.

No, it's okay, 'cause we're gonna lose anyway.

The coach said so at the pep rally.

Did he? I'm gonna have to explain "pep" to that man.

Oh, look, there's the band! Hi, band!

Hi, Milo.

Move over!

The one Milo-free zone ruined.

Hey, Melissa, you can sit with us if you value your life.

We're outside the splatter zone.

No thanks. I've got an adequate buffer zone here.

Hey! Do you mind?

Oh, Diogee. You should go home.

He's not supposed to be at the football game.

Tigers kick off to the Geckos and here we go!

Hut, hut!

Yeah! Whoo! Go Geckos!

That could still be my chakra.

Dude, we have a tuba?

You can do it! Geck-go! Geck-go!

Crepes suzette! Get your crepes suzette here.

Stinky cheese!

Beignets... Oh, I'll take two.

Sorry, we are closed.

Wow, French food at a football game?

They tried selling German sausages but they were the worst.

Check it out! I found a snare drum!

Oh, look! Zack's going on.

Zack, Zack! He's our man.

If he can't do it... Look out!

Creme brulee. Get your creme brulee. Ooh!

That was probably my bad.

That should count for something.

We could still win.

You know, if the Tigers all suddenly came down with a really bad cold

or if they suddenly decided

they wanted to be folk musicians instead of athletes or...

You know, you can stop me any time.

Yeah! Who would've guessed the game would be ruined?

Color me surprised. Hmm.

What's the one thing that's different at this game?

I don't know. I'm not usually here.

Maybe things would've gone better if you'd cheered for the other team.

Yeah. Go Tigers!

Great googly moogly! It works!

Milo, I've got an idea.

Give me all the merchandise you've got for the Middletown Tigers.

Aren't you guys Geckos?

You want the sale or not?

Hey, man. I've got no horse in this race.

Time out! Gecko!

Okay, Geckos. Come on, bring it in.

I know I said we were going to lose this game,

but you guys didn't listen to me! And I'm glad!

Now, we're only behind by two points!

So get out there and continue not listening to me! You understand?

So, does that mean we shouldn't listen to you starting now

or before when you told us not to listen to you?

Yeah, because I wasn't really listening to you just now.

Would you... I don't even exist!

Go, go, go, go! Go, Gecko!

Go, Tigers, go!

My eyes!

Well, good thing we got this drill.

Digging this tunnel with these little shovels would've been really hard.

Run!

Hey!

Now I can play the tuba!

Zack! Field goal! Drop kick!

No one's used that play in 40 years! Bring it back, baby!

Oh, no! It's going wide!

Field goal!

I mean, field goal!

Oh! I should probably turn this thing off.

We won? This has gotta be a dream.

Well, that means I can do anything. Maybe I can fly!

Milo, Milo, Milo!

Whoo! It's like Football X-7!

Ow! I forgot about that.

Ow!

Are you guys okay?

I think I broke my thumb.

Well, looks like we've started a whole new tradition!

Traction Saturday!

Milo, Milo, get well soon!

Your presence today was very supportive!

Yeah, we wrote that one in the hall.

Here you go, buddy. The game ball.

We want you to have it.

Oh, my gosh. Cool!

Hey, any of you guys want to sign my cast?

Diogee, go home!

He's not supposed to be at the hospital.

The train to the Museum of Natural History should be here any...

Forty-one seconds.

Forty-one seconds from now, apparently.

I'm really looking forward to seeing some paleontology, archeology...

All the ologies, really.

Milo, you're an ology unto yourself.

Oh! Forgot my student discount.

Thanks, Amanda.

Melissa, is there ever a time you haven't forgotten something?

Yeah, February 30th or 31st... I forget.

Neither of those are dates.

I'll be giving a tour for anyone who's not going to be at the "Milo Show".

Bradley, I don't have a performance planned.
