The Neverfriending Story

What are you doing here?

We're gonna watch a movie.

Not on that couch. Oyster, launch mode!

What's launch--

Whoa!

You could've just called dibs.

Looks like you girls are gonna have to watch TV somewhere else.

You boys may have the couch, but we have the remote.

Keep the remote. We're out of here.

My friends do not want to hang out with your friends.

Shhhh!

From the makers of Werewolf Hurricane

and Vampire Twister

comes a supernatural storm that no one could forecast--

Zombie Rain 3-D.

Whoa!

I so want to see that. - Me too.

Some girl we go to school with saw it,

and she's had nightmares ever since.

Uh, that was me.

Hey, we should all go tonight.

Oh, sweetches! - Not sweetches.

Phoebe, I've seen the movie. I've seen your friends.

I'm not a fan of either. -

Trust me--none of you guys should go.

Some girl got pink eye from the 3-D glasses.

Yes, that was also me.

Hey, there's a 7:00 showing. - That's perfect.

I have an early cricket match tomorrow.

You heard me.

Did you see that?

W-we can't have our friends

hanging out together.

We already share everything else--

a couch, a house, a family, a birthday.

You're everywhere.

It's just a movie.

No, today it's movie, but then we become a group.

Next thing you know, we're finding out

who has the longest arm, so we can take a group selfie.

It's always me.

Is that what you want, Phoebe--

for you and I to be part of the same group forever?

B-12. - Bingo!

Sweetches.

Hey, Long Arms, get over here and take a group selfie.

This has to stop!

Now we're even sharing nightmares.

And now, riding a bike with no brakes

and loose handlebars,

Billy Thunderman!

Whoo! Yeah!

Thank you.

Watch, as I attempt to--

Not go to the emergency room.

Step away from the bike, Billy.

That would have been so much cooler

if you were on it.

I know!

We never get to do anything.

And you're alive.

You're welcome.

Come on, maybe there's a can we can kick outside.

Be careful.

Ready to go the movies

and make sure our friends don't become friends?

Hey, don't call them "our friends."

I have my friends, and you have your giggle buddies.

Bye, Mom. Bye, Dad.

Hey, haven't you forgotten something?

Uh, wallet, keys, phone, my boyish charm.

Nope, let's go. -

Guys, you're not going anywhere.

It's our date night, remember?

You two are babysitting Billy and Nora.

What? Why?

Well, I know why. But why?

See ya later.

Wait, do you realize

that if we babysit tonight,

our social lives could be over?

Better yours than ours.

Run, Barb!

Be careful!

Hey, Max, can we go play tag with your rocket

on the old wooden bridge?

Sure, why don't you hitchhike there

and get a tattoo on the way back?

Yes! - Yes!

No!

Stop fooling around.

Someone's starting to sound a lot like Mom.

Am I, Nora?

Am I?

Max, how can we stop our friends

from becoming a group if we're stuck here?

Look, I texted Cherry, "Ditch the boys,"

but it got auto-corrected.

"Stitch the bosses."

That makes no sense.

You know what makes even less sense?

Cherry texted back "Done-zo."

Well, while you've been texting gibberish,

I've been working on...

this.

First, I'll take over two satellites,

then disrupt their communication

so they'll lose each other's phone numbers.

Ah?

But can't they just ask

for each other's phone numbers again?

She's right, dummy.

One more word, Colosso, I'll freeze you.

Shutting up, sir.

Wait.

Max, that's it.

If we freeze the kids,

we can leave them here

while we go separate our friends.

Oh...

that's what a not-stupid idea

sounds like.

Ah.

Shutting up again.

Hey, Billy, Nora.

Frozen kids say what?

What? - What?

Aw.

I know it was my idea,

but I feel kind of bad leaving them on ice.

Now you're starting to sound like Mom.

Am I, Max?

Am I?

Hey, everyone.

Yay, you changed your minds.

Actually, girls, I was thinking

it would be so much more fun

if we went to Wong's to get a pizza.

That sounds awesome. - Great.

With the boys, after the movie.

What?

Wouldn't you guys rather go check out

that new go-cart park?

Yeah, let's do that. - Cool.

With the girls, tomorrow night.

What?

I'm free. Let's all go.

A full weekend?

We're turning into a fun group.

Hands in.

I'm not doing that.

Go, group!

Okay, that looked fun.

Put me down for the next one.

Hey, our movie's gonna start.

See you at Wong's.

Stitch it up, bosses!

What have I done? - You've given the group

we're trying to break up a catchphrase.

We got to go unstitch those bosses.

Let's get in that movie,

and make them never want to hang out again.

Hands in.

Go buy some tickets!

Nobody puts Nora in the freezer.

Whoa. What happened?

Why is my butt so cold?

Ow! Why is my butt so hot?

I wonder how long we were frozen?

For 50 years!

While rabbits were once your mere pets,

here in the future, we rule the planet!

Come on, Colosso, we know that's one

of your silly costumes.

Right, Billy?

I am your humble servant.

Yes.

Tell me where Phoebe and Max went...

Or your costumes get it!

Ah, well played, girl Billy.

It's Nora. - Don't care.

Phoebe and Max froze you so they could go to the movies.

You realize what this means, Billy?

You know I don't, Nora.

We're home alone for the first time!

We can do whatever we want.

Light her up!

Whoo-hoo!

Take that, old wooden bridge!

What's that, Mom and Dad?
