Season 1

The Burger

Gumball: [with a raspy voice] What the what is going on? Darwin?

[Darwin emerges from his dust-coated bowl with a groan or yawn, algae covering his face. He shakes it off and turns off the alarm with a groan.]

Darwin: Ah, dude, we're late for school!

[Before he is able to respond, Gumball sneezes, creating a shockwave that completely clears the neighborhood of dust.]

Gumball: [voice recovering] How late?

[Darwin picks up the alarm clock and brings it up to his eyes to check. He immediately drops it in shock.]

Darwin: About seven years...

[The two let out a long, exaggerated gasp of horror. Gumball's gasp suddenly transitions into a yawn.]

Gumball: Five more minutes then.

[The two immediately go back to sleep in unison]

---

[Gumball and Darwin roam at the strip mall]

Darwin: It's not that difficult to eat healthy. It's a frame of mind.

Gumball: I don't know, man. Right now I'm really hungry, and the only thing on my mind is a burger for some reason.

[They are surrounded by advertisements for Joyful Burger. Larry spins a Joyful Burger sign]

Darwin: Ugh, these commercials are everywhere. Huh? [Spots Gumball floating to the entrance of Joyful Burger] Buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh. [grabs him before he enters] You just have to make the right choice.

[Darwin takes him to the restaurant on the other side: Health & Greens]

Gumball: [breaks from Darwin's grasp] No! I'm too young to eat like a washed-up actor pretending to live off a liquid paleo diet for their food blog.

Darwin: [gives him a stare before entering] I thought you said you were hungry.

Gumball: I am, but look at these faces. [points to photos of warped live action humans] They look like they're eating shredded clown to bring color back into their soulless, selfie-addicted lives.

The Assistant

Car: Doors locked. [The family screams.] Destination: Bottom of Elmore Lake. [The family screams again.] Weather today: warm, sunny, with a gentle breeze.

Gumball: Oh, that one's not so bad.

Darwin: It's midwinter.

Anais: Climate change! [The family screams a third time.]

The Distance

Gumball: Dude, that was great! Just like you were here.

The Traffic

[The Wattersons see Daisyland, who's burning down the ground while people are heard screaming in terror]

Anais: And then, l guess l wasn't really sure if anyone in this family had time for me, you know.

Gumball, Darwin, Nicole, Richard: Awww!

Anais: Oh! The Parade of Kindness!

[The Wattersons see the Parade of Kindness running by with their flaming costumes while screaming in horror. They all look at each other and burst into laughter]

The Astrological

Gumball: Okay. We all know I'm Penny's true love match. I think your cosmic crystal has a signal failure.

Mister Small: What's that? There's more. Gumball and Penny, not only are you not meant to be together, you'll break up by the end of the day.

[Everyone turns around to look at Gumball and Penny and gasp in disbelief. Penny starts starts laughing then suddenly turns serious]

Penny: Gumball, I'm leaving you.

Gumball: What?

Penny: I mean, if that’s what the celestial stone says.

Gumball: [chuckles] Oh, I get it, you’re joking

Mister Small: You may laugh, but the stars will bring forth your reckoning and a ton of cute, fuzzy feelings.

[Mr Small starts kissing the celestial stone before looking awkwardly at the class]

Mister Small: Class dismissed.

The Pool

Richard: It's ready. You can come out!

[Gumball and Darwin look nervous, while still underneath the steps.]

Richard: Hurry up before the water warms up! Ah.

Gumball: Okay, okay, let’s go.[Groans]

[The pool starts to boil, as Gumball and Darwin make their way. They both go to it, but hides underneath the shade for three times. Once they both jump in, the pool pops from boiling. Gumball and Darwin fall face first and now is sad.]

Gumball and Darwin: Aww.

Richard: Oh, uh, don’t worry. I’ll just fill this up instead.

[Richard takes the plant out of the pot, then he grabs his water hose. When he turned it on, instead of water, fire came out which made Richard set everything in the backyard on fire. It also fright Gumball and Darwin a little.]

Gumball: Told you we should have gone grocery shopping with the girls.

The Climb

[The episode opens with Coach Russo and the students from Miss Simian’s class standing in the gymnasium before a tall rock climbing wall. Each student wears a climbing helmet.]

Coach Russo: Alright, kids, everybody here?

[The students make various agreeable noises]

Coach Russo: [dramatically] Okay, today we’re climbing the rock wall!

[The students cheer happily, jumping up and down in excitement and pumping their fists. Gumball isn’t visible at first, but soon peeks out from where he’s hiding behind Jamie. He looks frightened.]

Coach Russo: But remember, if anyone gets horribly injured, you can’t sue me.

Tobias: Uh, I’m pretty sure we can…?

Coach Russo: Not since I got the gym declared an independent sovereign state! [She pulls out a remote and hits a button. A flag of herself standing on a pile of gym equipment rolls down from the ceiling, accompanied by a trumpet blast from the loudspeaker] And as leader of Gymnasia, I have diplomatic immunity! [She raises a hand in a show of patriotism and sings the national anthem, shedding several passionate tears] Gymnasia, GYMNASIA! I love this fake-country-that-I-just-made-up!

Banana Joe: Enough politics! Let’s go!

[The students cheer and rush the rock wall while Gumball is left alone, still looking afraid. Several of his classmates easily reach the top in seconds while he stands frozen. A dramatic shot of the wall looming over him is presented from his perspective, emphasizing its height while a sinister violin scale plays.]

[Penny and Darwin are at the bottom of the wall, cheerfully buckling their harnesses to the climbing ropes. Penny looks back and frowns.]

Penny: Hey, what’s up with Gumball?

Darwin: [grimacing] Oh, I think it’s the last time he climbed this wall.

[Gumball is sitting on the floor of the gym now, rocking back and forth and breathing heavily. He gasps as he relives a traumatic memory.]

The Cheapmas

Gumball: All right, look. Just, look...

Gumball: I go through the front door, up the stairs, l take one turn right tp gp to our bedroom, and...

[He is now seen poking his head out of the window, with his face resembling an actual cat.]

Darwin: [confused and speechless] Just add it to the other plot holes in our lives!

Gumball: It makes my butt quier to think of all that stuff that doesn't make sense.

[Cut to a flashback to Gumball and Darwin, along with Nicole, Richard and Anais, eating at a restaurant]

Gumball: Like how we haven't had a birthday in 7 years.
