- [Radio DJ] Hey, this is Sandy Shore, KEWL,
right in the middle of a flashbang '80s weekend
with that monster hit, You Make Me Come Alive.
- [Girl] Oh, my mom loves this song.
- [Girl] Turn it up.
- [Girl] Wow, we should stop at the beach.
- [Girl] You have to go tan at the beach.
I bet we could find some cute surfer boys.
- [Girl] Surfers, what water does to hair.
What are you doing after graduation?
- [Girl] My dad said so many Baby Boomers are dying,
I should get into health care.
He says it's a real growth industry.
I just don't wanna touch old people that much.
I wanna work with animals.
- [Girl] I just wanna get away for a while.
Always wanted to go to London.
Oh by the way, Kyle was talking about this cute cheerleader,
how hot she is, and then he said your name.
- [Girl] Wow, he's cute.
- [Girl] I heard he's kind of a player.
- [Girl] What do you mean?
- [Girl] Beverly told Angel that he did it with
that redheaded chick Tanya and then two days later
he did it with her best friend.
But you can't believe everything you hear.
- [Girl] People love to talk
about people behind their backs.
- [Girl] Yeah.
I love driving down Sunset Boulevard.
This is where all the L.A. bands got famous.
The Whiskey a Go Go, the Viper Room.
That's where River Phoenix died.
- [Girl] Who's River Phoenix?
[upbeat music]
- [Girl] I love the monster on the building.
- [Girl] Hollywood, there's so many people.
[upbeat music]
- [Girl] You're lucky, my dad says he always
finds people with nowhere to go and all day to get there.
- [Girl] Have you ever been to the Chinese theater?
Very cool.
[upbeat music]

Can you believe they don't even have a website?
- [Girl] No website, I don't trust
a place without a website.

- I just hope there's at least one cute guy there.

It's pretty cool if you get a chance to walk around,
there's a lot of stuff to look at.
- My phone's not working.
- Well unfortunately, the reception out here
is about as consistent as a California rain.
Back to the schedule, and the flyer for our
80s dance party.
It's gonna be a good time, a lot of fun.
- Where are we staying?
- Oh that's right, I'm sorry I completely forgot.
You ladies are in, building two.
Okay, what you want to do is you want
to go down the stairs that you came up,
you're gonna hang a right, and then go
just a little bit that way, and you can't
miss the building, it'll be just on your right okay.

- Yeah I did earlier, it's a little
weird with the skin and all.

- Oh yeah.
[upbeat music]
- [Pamela] Hi, is this your truck?
- Yes it is.
- Hey, it's yellow, high up.
- I like sitting up high.
I can see everything coming.
Reminds me of driving a combine back on the farm.
- You grew up on a farm?
- Yes ma'am.
Tell you what, those were the days.
Horses, bonfires, swimming in ponds.
[upbeat music]
Oh don't worry, it's not loaded, it's just a pellet gun.
Now you have to respect your weapons
but they for shooting varmints around here.
You know like rattlesnakes and rats,
rabid squirrels,
raccoons,
groundhogs.
I'll never get that week back.
- [Pamela] I mean is there anything else
we can be afraid of, we are pretty tough.
- Well I'm sure you girls are, but this
place actually offers a self defense course once a month,
maybe you can learn a thing or two.
- Well I have my brothers, we're
always throwing each other around, so.
Plus I'm pretty fast, we are a cheerleader
and all so, strong, fast, and twisty.
- Yeah that's right, damn maybe I can learn a thing or two.
Now I'll tell you what, I need some backup,
I'll come to you girls first.
- Oh have fun with that.
- Oh I will.
Oh hey, watching some movies in the theater

- There's government facilities everywhere.
There's one around here that does defense satellites.
- [Lana] That sounds very significant.
- [Axel] Police are investigating
and they think the culprits are still in the area.
- Should we be scared?
- Tough girls like you, what do you have to be scared of?
- [Axel] I'm sure there's no immediate danger,
but it would probably be a good idea to make
sure your cars are locked and your eyes are open.

- I've got to deliver on Sunday.
- [Thug] Yeah, we got it.
- I told you these guys are nuts.
- [Thug] Got it under control, no problem.
Okay.
[dramatic music]
[laughing]
[dramatic music]
I'll get you and your little dog too.
[dramatic music]
[upbeat music]
- [Thug] Yeah boss, I got eyes on the place.
[upbeat music]
It should be no problem at all.
We got some cheerleaders and some camp manager.
Some hillbilly hick looking type.
A cowboy hat.
We should make quick work of him.
[dramatic music]
Yeah, no problem.
[dramatic music]
Yeah I see another cheerleader now.
This place is gonna be easy to take down.
[dramatic music]
I think, I think she's eating a cucumber.
[dramatic music]
[wood thudding] [dramatic music]
- Michelle come look at this.
[dramatic music]
- Oh come on.
[dramatic music]
Is that what a real lumber Jack looks like?
[dramatic music]
[wood thudding]
- We should go talk to him.
[dramatic music]
- [Thug] Oh okay, here's another one.
I don't know what the hell she is doing though.
[dramatic music]
She's walking into the theater now.
[dramatic music]
And then she walked right out.
I'm gonna go check the other side of the camp.
[dramatic music]
- Hey come on.
[dramatic music]
- [Thug] That's the chick that was eating the cucumber.
[dramatic music]
Yeah boss, your plan is perfect.
They're all gonna be inside at this 80s dance party.
- [Axel] How we looking?
[upbeat music]
- That should be a fun time tonight.
- Yeah I've never been to an 80s party before.
- And that's it, that's all right.
Just like last year, they'll come.
[upbeat music]
♪ Baby, please be my baby
- I'm looking forward to it.
- Yeah, let's get in there, I'm excited.
- Boys, boys, come on, come on, let's go.
The party's starting, let's go.

Put one on.
- [Thug] All right, what we got?
- Let's go, grab a mask, let's go.
- Oh that's a good one bro.
- What is this, why I got to wear this?
- [Driver] Put it on!
- [Thug] I look like a girl with this thing on.
- [Driver] Fine don't wear one then.
- [Thug] I got to wear it, they can't see my face.
- [Driver] Let's go move it, out, out!
[upbeat music]
- [Axel] Hey y'all, this is a party.
Now I know we only got a couple people
here yet, but they're coming.
So get up, let's get down here, and let's party!
Turn the music up.

[dramatic music]
[upbeat music]
[dramatic music]
[Michelle screaming]
[dramatic music]
- [Michelle] Theo.
[dramatic music]
Axel, Axel, they took Theo!
They took Theo!
- Girls, what's going on?
- Please help, we shouldn't have taken their stuff.
- They left a ransom note.
[Michelle sobbing]
- [Axel] Trade dog for our stuff, 5:30 tomorrow, here.
Poor little guy.
[Michelle sobbing]
- All right look, listen, listen, come here, come here.
Listen, we're gonna get Theo back I promise okay.
- [Michelle] Okay.
- What I need you guys to do is,
I need you to go back to your room right now
and I'm gonna try to work on a plan.
- Okay.
- [Axel] All right.
- At least we know he's gonna be
okay until tomorrow all right.
[Michelle sobbing]
- [Axel] Really?
- How could you be so heartless.
[Michelle sobbing]
- All right girls, girls go back to y'alls rooms okay.
I'm gonna come up with a plan and we're
gonna get Theo back, all right?
[Michelle sobbing]
[dramatic music]
This reminds me of that time I shot that groundhog.
[dramatic music]
Yeah.
[dramatic music]
I got it.
[dramatic music]
[upbeat music]
[door creaking]
- [Pamela] Axel has a plan okay.
Are you okay?
- No, leave me alone.
[upbeat music]
I can't believe he's gone.
- [Andrea] He's not gone.
- Should have never come here.
Should have never brought Theo.
[dramatic music]
[girls yelling]
- [Girls] Oh!
- [Lana] Mr. Johnson told me to use this shower
because mine was out of order.
Are you guys okay?
What's the matter, what happened?
- They took Theo.
- They took your dog?
Who would do that?
- They want an exchange.
- We were sunbathing when we saw these guys in the alley,
and then they hid something, and then they saw us,
and then we went told Axel, and then we got it,
and then they took Theo, and now he's gone.
- What you gonna do?
- Axel has a plan, it's just no particular one.
[dramatic music]
- Well I will help you.
Let me take this off my face
and I'm gonna talk to you.
We'll get your dog.
[dramatic music]
- I got it.
- [Andrea] You know what, I want to take a chainsaw
to those guys that took Theo.
- [Pamela] I don't blame you,
but violence is never the answer.
- Guys.
- [Pamela] Okay look, Theo wouldn't
want us laying around crying right?
- Right, he's strong and so are we.
- Hey so we got this, let's do it.
- Come on.
[upbeat music]
[dramatic music]
- Thanks for coming girls.
Now, this is our camp and we're
gonna get Mr. Theo back, I promise.
And here's how.
By a show of hands, how many of you been groundhog hunting?
[upbeat music]
All right better question, how many
of y'all know what a ground hog is?
[upbeat music]
Just, just know basically the point is you got
to get there before the groundhog, and you got to be ready.
Now this plan that I have come up with
has a job for each of you, okay?
Here's what's going down.
[dramatic music]
Everything was checked and double checked.
I've dealt with low lives before and I knew
I had to come up with something they wouldn't expect.
They didn't know who they were dealing with.
Axel Johnson, the fourth.
Tension in the air was so thick,
even the dogs were getting antsy.
Just like I told the girls about the groundhogs,
I knew they'd be coming early.
AJ had been out front all morning watching, just in case.
I had set up the meeting to our advantage.
The girls were ready and waiting at strategic points.
Pamela was supposed to be on the gate,
Andrea was in the palm fronds, and that
Yugoslavia cheerleader was in the other palm fronds.
Even one of those promoters was standing by.
He was itching to tag on it.
I'd managed to get the place pretty much
emptied out to minimize any collateral damage.
[dramatic music]
Attention all Camp Cheer finalists, the hospitality
suite has been set up for you at the high school.
We hope you all have a good time exploring our town.
[dramatic music]
Remember you don't have to be back until dark.
Anyway, I was ready.
The final cars were leaving.
I can, I can feel 'em.
- All right guys, here's the plan.
We're gonna double cross them.
- What do you mean?
- We told them 5:30 arrival, let's get there at 3:30.
You know what scratch that, make it three o'clock.
- Okay. [phone ringing]
- Give me one second.
Yeah.
- They're gone, all right great thanks.
- Who was that?
- That was Nick and Vic, I had them early doing a stakeout.
We're gonna go in and out real quick.
All right got it, let's go.
Let's go, let's go right now, let's do this.
- [Axel] We got this, everybody just stay
calm and stick to the plan.
[dramatic music]
Since AJ was mayor, he done had two kids
and had been baiting a previous altercation,
I decided to send him out to cover the back gate.
Just stay on your toes.
[dramatic music]
Our resident lumberjack, Easel Johnson, no relation,
had volunteered to be bait, you know to let them
think they had the upper hand.
Actually, we figured there were gonna try
to knock him out, so he kind of
volunteered to be more of a pinata.
We were all waiting for them,
and we had a few surprises of our own.
Any minute now.
I got 'em.
Everyone get ready, looks like the party's about to begin.
[dramatic music]
- [Pamela] They just passed checkpoint A.
- [Axel] Copy, now real quick sneak back
into stage one the back way.
[dramatic music]
- They just passed point B.
- [Axel] Copy, meet up with Michelle,
and get ready to take these guys down.
[dramatic music]
You have to press the button and let it go.
[radio static]
No don't press it again.
No okay, I know it's confusing Lana.
[speaking foreign language]
Lana, Lana, okay Jacob do your thing.
[dramatic music]
- [Jacob] Yeah I see 'em, I'm
moving to stage one as per plan.
[dramatic music]
- [Axel] Copy and get ready to take these guys down.
- [Jacob] Gotcha.
- [Axel] Get ready Diesel, they're right behind you.
[dramatic music]
You're ready.
[metal clanking]
[dramatic music]
See a pinata.
[dramatic music]
[upbeat music]
- Where's Theo?
- Shh, I'm talking to you, you little cheerleader.
Who are you?
- Axel Johnson, I'm the manager here.
- Well Axel Johnson, is that for me?
- Well that depends, you got the dog?
- Yeah I got the dog, he's outside.
I got proof of life.
- Theo.
[dramatic music]
- Where I come from, we don't treat
pretty little ladies like this.
- I don't care where you come from,
just give me the stuff I want.
[dramatic music]
- Here's your schematics, take it
and get the hell out of here.
[dramatic music]
- It's all in here.
[dramatic music]
All there.
- [Axel] Yeah.
[dramatic music]
- [Thug] Come here, come here you.
[upbeat music]
[man groaning]
[Lana screaming]
[upbeat music]
[fists thudding] [upbeat music]
[man groaning]
[upbeat music] [fists thudding]
[upbeat music]
[man groaning]
[upbeat music]
- Na, na, na, na, na.
I'm right here.
[body thudding]
[upbeat music]
[motors rumbling]
- [Both] Let's do this.
[upbeat music]
[motors rumbling] [upbeat music]
[rocks rumbling] [man groaning]
[upbeat music]
[stone crashing]
- [Thug] This is bull crap man,
let's get the stuff and get out of here.
- [Thug] Put the mask on.
- [Thug] I hate this mask.
[upbeat music] [man groaning]
[stone crashing]
[upbeat music]
- [Axel] All wrapped up here officer.
- [Officer] All right, let's go you pinheads.
[upbeat music]
Nice job everyone.
[upbeat music]
- Hey boys, when you get downtown, say hey to Big D for me.
[upbeat music]
The authorities showed up quickly.
Things started moving fast after
the police took those pinheads away.
[upbeat music]
Turns out they were working for
a slimy lawyer with government credentials.
He was trying to make a quick buck
selling satellite schematics to some shady foreign types.
- Look, they had the schematics
on them when they were picked up.
Mental giants, didn't want to take this job.
Is that a threat?
Yeah, I don't like your tone of your voice.
What do you mean you know where my family is?
You don't even know where you wife is.
- [Axel] Oddly he disappeared and he was
never seen or heard from again.
But the plot was foiled, and actually
it was a pretty big deal.
Meanwhile, as you may have guessed,
the girls went on to win the finals.
Big celebration.
But, that was just the beginning.
When news of what happened got out,
and with an election coming up,
the mayor and the local politicos all joined in.
We all become well I'll just say it, celebrities.
And Ms. Pamela and Ms. Andrea, were awarded
scholarships, went to NYU and then
were recruited into Homeland Security right away.
Ms. Michelle, followed her dream and used her scholarship
to become a successful veterinarian up in Santa Barbara.
She's a top dog in the state's animal rights campaign.
The Yugoslavian chick, well she went back to Yugoslavia.
From what she said I guess it's down right beautiful there.
When there's not war going on.
I think it's called Bosnia now.
And me, my vast experience and expertise in construction
and my national leadership abilities really paid off,
and I started moving up in the world.
Axel Johnson's Guide To Fixin' And Flippin' Real Estate
has become somewhat of a hit TV show,
which can be seen every night on cable.
The house is no longer there.
But my student turned a profit.
There's more than one way to skin
a cat in the real estate biz.

- I'm let you in on a little confidential information.
Before we separated ways, Homeland Security
brought us in on a couple of investigations.
They thought our talents could be of use.
Sort of a modern day Charlie's Angels.
You have a couple of hours, grab
a glass of your favorite beverage.
You should already have your shoes off.
And cozy up, you're in for a treat.
This was a weird case.
There's no motive, no weapon,
no witnesses, except for the dog.
When the police finally arrived, they
just tried to knock the door down.
That's when I started to thinking,
perfect job for the girls.
Ms. Michelle hit the roof, squeezed through
a 12 inch pipe for the AC, I have no idea how.
Don't care, Ms. Andrea, hit the tunnels.
Came up from underneath the building.
Ms. Pamela repelled down the side,
cut a hole in the glass and that's that.
What no one realized this entire time was there's
a dog tied to the bike rack 15 feet from the door.
So, I called the best pet psychic detective in the state.
Took about 15 minutes to get there from helicopter.
That give the girls just plenty of time to get in place.
When she arrived, took her about a minute or two
to squeeze that information out of the chihuahua.
A slight communication barrier 'cause it only spoke Spanish.
But once we got the information the girls were ready.
Broke into the building and rescued the hostage.
