The Substitute

Hey, yo. What is up, Nickelodeon?

It's me, Juanpa.

Guess what's happening right now.

It's the season finale of "The Substitute."

Yes. Yes.

Every episode I take your favorite celebrities and

turn them into the most insane substitutes ever.

Yeah!

They get fully transformed

by my amazing special effects

and makeup masters.

Hello?

Juanpa, my man. What's cracking?

Hi, Craig Robinson,

host of "The Masked Dancer" and star of "The Office."

Why are you interrupting my intro?

I'm a big fan of the show.

You know, I used to be a teacher, right?

No-no, I had no idea.

I'm - I'm such a big fan of yours, too.

Nice. I appreciate.

But guess what?

Nickelodeon just gave me your job.

I'm - I'm - I'm fired?

No-no-no. You actually got promoted because

you are today's substitute.

No way. My Gosh.

This is amazing. I-I-I need to go get ready.

No, dude, you gotta get going.

We already have a car waiting

to take you to go in the cupboard

to prank three groups of kids from the Strive Organization.

You know, I've always wanted to do this.

This is like the best surprise ever.

My gosh.

And this is real, right?

You're not joking with me.

I never joke about pranking.

Okay. - One more thing.

I have two more friends on standby to help me out.

Hey! - Hey, Juanpa.

So answer your phone when they call.

I will keep my phone ready.

Um, yeah.

This week's episode, it's me.

See you soon.

I can't believe I finally get to say this,

but I guess say goodbye to Juanpa

and hello to the substitute.

Barney. - Welcome.

How's everything? - Swell.

Wow. No one has told me anything.

Do you have any info about any character?

Yeah, I have all the info. - Nice.

But I can't tell you. - What?

I look like Squidward.

Okay, what is going on, man?

How does it feel to finally

step into the substitute's shoes?

I feel, nervous, excited.

Don't. Because this first prank,

you'll be playing a superhero.

What type of superhero looks like this?

A Russian superhero who fights grime.

I fight what, crime?

Grime.

Okay, Russian superhero that fights grime.

Solid. I'm gonna have fun.

Perfect. Now, go out there

and help those kids fight some grime.

All right, Juanpa, you ready to save the world?

Good morning.

I need everybody to settle down.

My name is Mr. Ivanoff, okay?

I come from the Department of Sanitation of the school.

The Russian accent is pretty good.

You've been watching "Rocky IV"?

Today, I'm gonna teach you about

something very important... cleanliness.

We need to battle

everything that is against cleanliness.

You know what is against cleanliness?

Germs.

That's pretty close.

We have grime.

Now, introduce them to today's real substitute.

I've created an alter ego

to really be able to fight against grime.

Let me show you.

Okay, here we go.

Boom shaka-laka, and check it out.

Boom. - He's a superhero!

I am Captain cleanliness.

Have you ever met a real superhero before?

No. - No.

Well, today you have.

Now, do you know who my arch enemy is?

Germs. - Dirty grime?

Grime. You have an A today.

Okay, let's kick off the first experiment.

Today, I'm gonna show you an experiment.

Step number one, fill your bowls with water.

Put it in, don't be afraid.

Second step, put the pepper in there.

Go shaka, shiki, shaka, shoka.

Come on, do whatever your heart is telling you.

Remember, no fear when it comes to grime.

All right, everybody, next step,

we're gonna go with soap.

You're gonna grab your index finger,

rub that soap in that one finger,

make it nice and clean.

Now grab that finger and put it up in the sky.

Feel the gods of cleanliness calling your names.

Put the finger now inside.

What is happening?

The grime is going - is moving away.

It's getting away.

Exactly. Babushka-babushka.

That's why soap is the best way to fight grime.

Look at that, they're running away from you, Breanna.

The soap is scared of you right now.

You're powerful.

Captain Cleaner, you're the best

superhero teacher I've ever had.

I am about to cry and get emotional

because that was so nice from you.

Now, let's really fight grime.

All right, everybody.

This is your arch enemy. What is this?

Yes. Who wants to try first?

Me.

All right, kid. You come on up.

Call that dude, The Spritz Meister.

You're going to be The Super Spritz Meister.

I want you to scream you name. What are you?

That was very powerful. Now put the gloves on.

I want you to scream Super Spritz Meister.

Super Spritz Meister.

Boom-boom-boom. Super Spritz Meister.

Super Spritz Meister.

Yes, let it out!

You're killing the grime baby.

Amazing. A round of applause.

Wow.

What about personal hygiene?

But what about our personal hygiene?

Example me, right? I smell, no?

It's...

Wow, that was disgusting.

Now I want you to grab your bottles,

come up here and spray my armpits

because I smell disgusting.

You need to kill the armpits, in the armpits.

Keep it in the armpits. Very nice.

Yeah. - Beautiful. And stop.

Today, I'm gonna do something I haven't

done for anybody else.

I'm about to cover myself in our biggest enemy, grime.

I'm gonna grab this grime.

It looks so filthy.

The moment I put the grime on,

my life is going to be in danger.

Are you ready?

Be brave, Juanpa. No bowing out, be brave.

I'm doing it. I'm doing it.

No-no. - I am ready for this!

Help me. Come on. Come on, fight it-fight it.

It's the battle of the century.

Come on. Help me do it.

Get the soap! Go!

Okay.

Moscow's calling.

Hey, everybody stay still one second-one second.

I just got a call from Moscow,

the Russian government needs me for another mission.

- Stay safe and fight what? - Grime!

Good. Remember, fight the grime.

All right, Juanpa, not too bad.

You got two more to go.

Surprise! - Hey, Juanpa.

Let's jazz it up.

You go, girl. - Whoa.

And later...

Your turn. Show them how it's done.

What is going on?

What is happening?

Hello!

And it's the biggest reveal in "Substitute's" history,

when "The Substitute" returns.

Your fearless host, me, Juanpa Zurita has gone fully

undercover as a substitute on this totally insane episode,

with Craig Robinson calling the shots.

Be brave, Juanpa. No bowing out.

And, Craig's surprise friends

have plenty more pranking in store for me.

Hey, Juanpa. Surprise.

My gosh.

Actor, singer, ventriloquist Darci Lynne? How cool.

Yep. Craig said for this next prank, you're all mine.
