Transcript

00:00Tumbling through an interdimensional vortex, Warren and Lucy discover twisted

00:07versions of their own world, always hoping the next one will be home.

00:22Boss, what are you doing in the dark, man?

00:25Hey, Hika!

00:55It's like the lights are on, but no one's home.

00:56Huh.

00:57They're not all that different, to be honest.

00:58Is she wearing nappies?

01:00That's not the strangest thing I've seen Auntie Laura wear.

01:01Ugh.

01:02I think she needs to be changed.

01:03Whoa, they've got them too.

01:04Okay, we should go find Mum.

01:05She wouldn't be dumb enough to get taken over by Homo buff.

01:06Dad?

01:07Dad!

01:08Sorry, I just turned out there for a second.

01:09What did you say?

01:10Okay, don't look at the phone.

01:11I think they take over your brain.

01:12Oh, oh.

01:13Oh, oh.

01:14Oh, oh.

01:15Oh, oh.

01:16Oh, oh.

01:17Oh, oh.

01:18Oh, oh.

01:19Oh, oh.

01:20Oh, oh.

01:21Oh, oh.

01:22Oh, oh.

01:23Oh, oh.

01:24Oh, oh.

01:25Oh, oh.

01:26Oh, oh.

01:27Oh, oh.

01:28Oh, oh.

01:29Oh, oh.

01:30Oh, oh.

01:31Oh, oh.

01:32Oh, oh.

01:33I think they take over your brain.

01:34Oh, oh.

01:35And how many times have I said that to you?

01:37Huh?

01:38Irony much?

01:39Yeah, I think we should go and find your mum.

01:42Dad.

01:43Dad!

01:44Snap!

01:45Ah!

01:46Ah!

01:47Let's go find Mum!

01:48I was about to say that to you.

01:52Any more?

01:53Babe?

01:55Holy hecka!

01:58Oh.

01:59Whoa.

02:00I haven't seen the house.

02:01That's probably since your mother went to the Gold Coast to visit her sister.

02:04Yeah.

02:05Why did everything get so untidy while she was gone?

02:07Pff.

02:08Complete mystery to me.

02:09Ah, you see?

02:10I warned your mother about texting and driving.

02:15Fire her out, man.

02:16People are so engrossed in their mobile phones.

02:18I mean, they're really supposed to be focusing on what they're doing.

02:21Oh, two bucks!

02:22Oh!

02:23Oh, come on, my darling.

02:24Ah, they're everywhere.

02:25Let's get her inside.

02:26Oh!

02:27Oh, uncle, my...

02:28Oh!

02:29Ah, leaving me's all good.

02:30So, they're all playing some sort of farming game called Fani Farm.

02:31I think it's what turned them all into mobile phone zombies.

02:33It's quite hard to see.

02:34Oh, you see?

02:35Oh, you see?

02:36Oh, you see?

02:37Oh, you see?

02:38Oh, you see?

02:39Oh, you see?

02:40Oh, you see?

02:41Oh, you see?

02:42Oh, you see?

02:43Oh, you see?

02:44Oh, you see?

02:45Oh!

02:46Oh, uncle, my...

02:47Oh!

02:48Ah, leaving me's all good.

02:51So, they're all playing some sort of farming game called Fani Farm.

02:55I think it's what turned them all into mobile phone zombies.

02:59It's quite hard to say, actually, mobile phone zombies.

03:01Like, oh, no, look out, it's the mobile phone zombies.

03:04Oh, what about...

03:06...Mombies?

03:07Mombies.

03:08I like it, fist bump.

03:10Oh.

03:11Okay, so maybe if we wake up on the Mombies,

03:13the vortex will open.

03:15Mm-hmm.

03:16Henemoa!

03:17Wake up!

03:18Stop being a mombie!

03:20Nah.

03:21I know what'll wake her up.

03:23Oh, honey.

03:25Check it out.

03:27Look at what I'm doing.

03:29I'm drinking milk straight out of the carton.

03:32Mmm.

03:34Mmm.

03:35That milk has expired.

03:37Uh, note to dad.

03:38Maybe don't drink milk in other dimensions.

03:41Hey.

03:42So get out, hun.

03:44Oh.

03:45I'm gonna put cutlery in the wrong way out.

03:47See how crusty that plate is?

03:50So crusty.

03:51I'm not even gonna rinse it.

03:52Oh.

03:56Oh.

03:57Ugh.

03:59That brace really holds that phone in there.

04:02Oh, and those nappies are so gross.

04:05Okay.

04:06I'm gonna pinch charming this.

04:08Time to wake up sleeping beauty.

04:11Your mother's breath smells like portaloos at a three-day music festival.

04:23Well, um, I guess oral hygiene's not really a priority in this universe.

04:28If only there was someone left who could tell us what's going on.

04:33Someone who doesn't own a mobile phone.

04:35What kind of sad, bitter, anti-social loser doesn't have a mobile phone?

04:39Uh, even Mrs. S, she was always going on about her phones with the devil's lego.

04:52Okay.

04:53She's not wearing one of those weird arm braces, so maybe we're good.

04:58Okay.

04:59Oh.

05:00Oh, sorry.

05:01Oi.

05:02What are you two heathens doing in my house?

05:18Get out.

05:19Now.

05:20It worked.

05:21A thousand and one uses of these things.

05:24Oh.

05:25Oh.

05:26Oh.

05:27Oh.

05:28Oh.

05:29Oh.

05:30Oh my god, I think she's dead.

05:33A thousand and two.

05:34Dead.

05:35I'll call an ambulance.

05:36No, no, no, don't touch the phone.

05:37No.

05:38Aroha mai, Mrs. S.

05:42Okay.

05:43Who else wouldn't have a phone?

05:46Dogs.

05:47Yeah, because dogs would really help us in this situation.

05:54Crazy conspiracy theorist?

05:55Got rid of his phone because he thought Vladimir Putin was watching him on the toilet?

05:59Darren.

06:00We'll give him a call right now.

06:01Oh yeah, phone.

06:02Yeah, sorry.

06:03We'll just, we'll just go there.

06:07This reality gives me the creeps.

06:10Yeah.

06:11I don't think it's that much different from our reality to be honest, honey.

06:16Even with the nappies.

06:17Hey.

06:18That's Phil.

06:19Phil.

06:20Whoa.

06:21Hey.

06:22Hey Phil.

06:23Hey pal.

06:24What are you doing?

06:25Uh, nothing honey.

06:26I was just seeing if he'll snap out of it.

06:27That's all.

06:28Why don't you try Prince Charmingham?

06:29Maybe I will.

06:30Yeah.

06:31Not so tough now are you Phil.

06:32With your annoying swagger and your condescending tone.

06:33And you know what?

06:34No one cares that your barbecue's bigger than mine.

06:35No one cares that your barbecue's bigger than mine.

06:48No one.

06:50Are you finished?

06:52Nah.

06:53Not quite.

06:54Cause something special for you man.

06:55Check this out.

06:56Stanky Steve's.

06:57What's up with theuseums?

07:02Stanky Steve's over 10 million scoful bunny. That's gonna be fun when you wake up. Yeah

07:12Real mature dad, real mature

07:22I'm coming

07:25Subscribe

07:29We all are funny farm but tired of having to put down your phone

07:32Well, now you can play funny farm 24-7 with the all-new arm club funny farm putting the fun into funny

07:38Watcher out, he'll be in the shed

07:46Hicka, what the f-

07:48Geez! Uncle Darren?

07:51You guys. I thought you'd been kidnapped by hackers working for North Korea

07:57You haven't have you? I don't think so

07:59Bro, what's what the Tin Man cost you?

08:01Okay Uncle Don and Kebab, look, we need to know what's going on

08:05I can't believe I'm saying this but

08:09We want to heal conspiracy theories

08:13So it's my time to shine

08:15So I have got three theories

08:19We were kind of hoping you'd have one really good one

08:22First

08:23The mobile phones contain mind control chips and the governments use them to subjugate us

08:27Nice word, what else?

08:28Second

08:29Phones are ancient alien tech, the aliens want to come back and control us, hence the addiction

08:33Okay, that's a little Stargate meets Transformers, got anything that's not already a movie?

08:39You're gonna love this Warren

08:41What if the Māori god of horticulture got bored of gardening, okay, and decided to become the god of technology

08:47And he's using phones to take over Aotearoa

08:51So when you said you're gonna love this Warren, did you mean because I'm Māori?

09:00Maybe the first one, eh?

09:02Yeah, yeah, I think

09:03Also, what's with the weird pants with the tubes on them?

09:06Oh, they're called eco-cycle pants

09:08So they take your body waste, they turn them into nutrients and then they pump it back into your body

09:13Ooh, like poo catchers

09:14Yeah, exactly

09:16It allows them to play the game 24-7

09:18They actually all got them off Teemu

09:19Yeah, I really like to play those games on the toilet, eh?

09:25More of AIDS and the...

09:29Yeah, anyway, this game Funny Farm came out and everyone was immediately hooked

09:34But then the game started offering incentives to recruit new players

09:38Okay, so hit a billion points and you can level up to become a recruiter

09:42Okay, now these recruiters are actually quite dangerous because they can run around and force you to play the game

09:48But don't worry, I mean, you have to hit a billion points to become a recruiter

09:52Okay, and actually the chances of running into one are super slim because

09:56Everybody's been recruited

09:58Apart from me and you guys

10:02I'm just feeling a bit stuffy in here so I'll just open this door

10:06Sorry

10:08Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

10:10Recruiters!

10:13Born of Satan!

10:15Dad!

10:19Dad!

10:20Dad!

10:22Dad!

10:24Hi, guys. What?

10:25They must have sent you guys.

10:26Okay, we have to get out of here. This place isn't safe.

10:28Can't we just close our eyes and just push through them?

10:31No, no, no.

10:33It's not just seeing the screen that enslaves you.

10:37But I think I've got a way for us to get out of here.

10:40Okay. Now I know what a garlic bread feels like.

10:59Oh, get off! I don't like subscribing!

11:02Dad, help!

11:03Lucy!

11:06Dad!

11:06I mean, why don't you keep your tinfoil on?

11:11I don't want you to see what I'm about to do.

11:13Hey, Mombees!

11:15You're about to get unsubscribed.

11:16Ah!

11:17You've all been disconnected.

11:34Hey, I think I know that nun.

11:35Yeah, she's teaching me at school.

11:37Oh.

11:38Autohomysis.

11:39Oh, no.

11:39That's okay. She was really mean.

11:41Yeah, she looks mean.

11:41Okay, we should go back to our place.

11:44Let's go.

11:54Okay, everybody's reaching a billion points faster than I thought.

11:56Okay, let's barricade all the doors.

11:58I'll take the rest of the house.

11:59Did you know that, on average, 80% of normal domestic couches are covered in human skin,

12:08dried saliva, and wet fecal matter?

12:10Why would you tell me this?

12:12Any recruiters outside?

12:15Okay, let's start with the side door first.

12:18That way nothing can get in.

12:19We're out.

12:20Bro, again, why?

12:22Hang on.

12:24Where's it anymore?

12:26Let's see!

12:26Where's it?

12:31Where's it?

12:34Oh, no!

12:35Enough!

12:36Just knocked the phone out of her hand.

12:38We tried that with Mrs. S and she died!

12:40No!

12:41No!

12:43My little girl's a momby!

12:46I'm sorry, honey.

12:48I protected you from evil refrigerators and robot real estate agents,

12:53and after all that, I couldn't even protect you from a stupid mobile phone.

12:56Go, go, go, go, go!

13:00A bit of more?

13:07Aaaaaah!

13:08Go, go, go, go, go!

13:12Okay, we're safe.

13:14Anyone never comes in here.

13:15She reckons it gives her anxiety.

13:18Yeah, I don't think I've ever been in this room.

13:19Ah, yeah, this is basically where we keep all the stuff that we never use.

13:23It's our, uh, stuff room.

13:25Hey, I gave you that selfie stick for your birthday.

13:28Ah, stuff and some really precious, meaningful things that we use all the time.

13:33It's still gift-wrapped.

13:42Hey, that's the swindles that I gave you for Christmas!

13:45I can't believe this!

13:46No, no, no, no, not my guitar.

13:47Here.

13:56No!

13:57I can't do it!

13:57I can't!

13:58I can't do this to such a beautiful instrument.

14:00This guitar was built for sweet melodies, not for violence.

14:03I don't think this is the time for tunes, Warren!

14:06Well, this is Nemo's favourite.

14:07You're you again!

14:31Dad?

14:33Mom!

14:37Your song?

14:40It sneaked me out of it.

14:42Normally, you'll sing like first season of Glee Level Cringe, but this time, it kind of worked.

14:49Harmonic disruption.

14:50Yes!

14:51A classic Maori three-chord strum must disrupt the brain and sever the link to the phone.

14:56Dad, you found the cure!

14:57You know, like my Uncle Te Wairangi always says, if a guitar can't fix it, you're not playing it loud enough.

15:02Dad, if we weaponise your cringe, we could sort this whole Monbi mess.

15:07Oh, let's give it a bash thing.

15:10Oh, let's give it a shout.

15:11Oh, let's give it a shout.

15:11A tahilua, a tahilua toruwa.

15:14Here, it's a cry.

15:16Say that.

15:19Say that.

15:23Eng a iwi, eng a iwi o daroha

15:28Haere mai, haere mai, haere mai

15:35Haere mai

15:37Warren! Lucy!

15:40Wozza!

15:42Oh, I haven't seen you for ages!

15:46How are you, bro?

15:48Why am I so sloshy?

15:54What is that smell?

15:56And where the hell have you two been?

15:58I'll explain later.

15:59Right now, it's time for morioki.

16:01You can't do that all by yourself, dad.

16:03Don't worry.

16:05I'm bringing in the big guns.

16:10Hey, kia ora, auntie!

16:11Oh, Warren! It's teenagers! Up two!

16:15Is there us, auntie? Wyatt is on.

16:17Wyatt is on.

16:18Wyatt is on.

16:19Ka pai, the boy's home?

16:20The boy's home.

16:21Boy, marangamai!

16:23But those, it's very important to eat.

16:25That's why I want to eat tonight.

16:26Fizzling back to heaven, I'll be able to eat tonight.

16:28Then I'll be able to eat tonight.

16:30What is that smell?

16:31I'll be able to eat tonight.

16:32And enjoy it.

16:33I'll be able to eat tonight.

16:34I'll be able to eat tonight.

16:35Good evening, sis.

16:36My wife's home.

16:37And enjoy here.

16:40My wife's home.

16:42Good evening, Julia.

16:45Good evening, Mother.

16:47Good evening, Mother.

16:48Good evening, Mother.

16:49You're the first day.

16:50I am Hongro, the Maori god of technology, and in my realm, there will be no singing.

17:04Oh my god! I was right! I was right about being a Maori god!

17:09Whoa, whoa, whoa, what's up? There's no such thing as the Maori god of technology.

17:12There is now. I was once the god of horticulture, but you stupid mortals had no respect for my realm, so I decided to change.

17:23Ah, you were homey-e-tiki-tiki.

17:26Don't even say that name. My name is Hongro.

17:29Hey, what did you enslave everybody? Not cool, bro.

17:32I can do what I like. Now you will suffer my wrath.

17:37Oh, yeah? Looks like we have to settle this old-school way.

17:42Okay, okay, whoa. No need for a full-on huckaboo. Just, uh, give me a second.

18:01Please be down the against. Please be down the against.

18:12Ah. Ah, kia ora. So you're not even an Atua at all, are you?

18:22Nah, nah, nah, nah.

18:23Cool, cool, cool. So, what's with the gigantic floating head?

18:27Oh, you know, I kind of just, uh, kind of just got bored one day.

18:31You know, I didn't know everyone was going to get addicted to my game, so...

18:33Your game?

18:34Yeah, whanifam. I made it. You know, I used to study horti culture, but, uh, you know, it turns out the pollen from the grass would give me a rash on my...

18:44Yeah.

18:45So, uh, I switched over to computer studies, you know, made a game, and, you know, next thing I'm like a billionaire, and next minute everyone's getting addicted to my game and turning into these zombies.

18:57Oh, I didn't know how to fix it, so I kind of just, um...

18:59Built a giant head and flew around in it, pretending to be an Atua.

19:02Yeah, yeah, pretty much, eh? Yeah, you know, us billionaires always doing some crazy shows.

19:07You have to make this right.

19:08Hey, okay, chill, chill, sis. Now that I know that your song's the answer, all I've got to do is connect to every phone in the world and broadcast it.

19:17Sure it is, you know?

19:18Okay, we'll wait to take it.

19:19Thank you, sir.

19:20Thank you, sir.

19:50Thank you, my baby.

19:56Give it a nice flicker, bro.

19:58Enjoy that, my bro.

20:01Oh, hey, Phil.

20:02You all good?

20:04Hey, uh, sort of come and check on everyone.

20:06There's, uh, been some weird goings on since the wake-up, eh?

20:10Like what?

20:11Anyone else got a real burny mouth, like, super burny? Feels like mine's on fire.

20:16I've got, like, sore guts.

20:18It's coming out of me like iced tea, man.

20:21My bottom's red raw.

20:23Pulled my cheeks apart in the mirror.

20:24Looked like a, like a sliced cap's coming.

20:26Um, 24-7, I'm paintballing my shorts.

20:29My lips are like this.

20:31Uh, you want to join us for a feed, Phil?

20:34There's plenty of kai to go around.

20:35Oh, thanks, man.

20:36That's kind of you.

20:37Oh, I see you've gone with the standard bacon.

20:41I myself usually get the, uh, honey-cured bacon at Saskia's.

20:45It's a little bit more expensive, but, um...

20:48Yeah, all good. All good.

20:50Yeah, I just say to myself,

20:52oh, you're worth it, Phil.

20:55How about some saucer there, Phil?

20:56Oh.

20:58Yep, okay.

20:59Well, I guess all's well that ends well.

21:01Hey, babe.

21:04Uh, Warren,

21:05are there something I need to talk to you about?

21:09Oh, okay.

21:10Uh, actually, that, um,

21:12something we need to talk to you about.

21:19Oh.

21:20Oh.

21:21Oh, wow, you don't muck around, do you, myself?

21:23What?

21:24We waited officially till you were declared dead

21:26before we got married.

21:28Yeah, out of, out of respect.

21:30I guess I should have seen the signs, eh?

21:37Congratulations to you both.

21:39I'm glad you found happiness in each other.

21:42Really?

21:43Yeah.

21:44Hey, Lucy.

21:45Yeah.

21:46Congratulations, Mum.

21:46And you too, Uncle Murray.

21:49Oh, Dad number two.

21:52Yeah, that's not happening.

21:53Dad two?

21:54Don't push it.

22:00Hey, uh,

22:01we're just gonna go grab something from the tool shed.

22:07Love you.

22:10Dad number two?

22:11Oh, no, it just came to me.

22:13I know I should be ho-ha,

22:26but I'm,

22:26I'm just happy and they're happy, you know?

22:29You're not angry because that isn't your hine.

22:31Do you think my animal will wait for me?

22:37Yeah, she's waiting.

22:41Because the best duets always need both voices.

22:46Coming up next to the cheesy cheese channel,

22:49the best duets always need both voices.

22:51Let's go.

22:53Were you actually being serious?

22:55Yeah, no.

22:56Oh, did I run an emotional moment for you?

22:57You know what, I don't want to say something nice to you anymore.

23:00Oh.

23:01And the best duets always need both voices.

23:06Oh, great.

23:11This definitely isn't home.

23:12These definitely aren't our clothes.

23:14We've been undressed and redressed without our consent.

23:18Oh, how is that even possible?

23:20Different undies.

23:21These ones look like an action gusset.

23:23Dad, I don't think testing out your undies

23:25is the reason the Vortex brought us here.

23:34It's Mrs. Schrodinger.

23:35Why don't you keep dying?

23:37This is like the fifth time.

23:38We've landed in some corny murder mystery cosplay.

23:40Oh, Inspector, thank God you're here.

23:43What's happened?

23:43Dad, I think the Vortex wants us to solve a murder.

23:49The Vortex won't let us leave

23:50until we find who the real killer is.

23:53Keep Inspector Doyle.

23:55Scotland, yeah, you're my boss.

23:57The murderer has to be someone in this room.
