The Smooch is the sixth episode of the second season of Chalkzone. It premiered on August 1, 2003.
Synopsis[]
Rudy and the gang go to the Hahama's to see a special bird named The Smooch.
Plot[]
In Chalkzone, Rudy, Penny and Snap travel to the Hahama island to encounter the rare bird, The Smooth, however the hover turtle arrived on the island and threw them off when the heard about the smooch, As the gang landed on the beach, they encounter the Haha Men, who introduce themselves while singing a musical number. The first being Mahaha, who can cause people to float in the air with his words. Next is Rickhaha who can not only hit the beat on his drum but also can cause those who are floating by Mahaha power to swing around. Lastly, we have Omaha, who dreads can not only extend but can be used to help people down from the air.
After the song, Rudy, Snap and Penny introduced themselves to the Haha Men and revealed that they came to observe the smooch, which caused them to laugh loudly as they reveal that they know where the smooch is, as Omaha revealed that he has a map to the small island in the lagoon but would need to travel by foot, which means they would use foot pogo sticks to get there. Unfortunately, a clipper nipper arrived and manage to get a hold on Penny's foot pogo stick and clip it nails. By the time they arrived, Rickhaha revealed that normally they would have to wait for low tide to get across but due to the Clipper Nipper, they had to figure out a way to get to the island.
So Rudy had Mahaha lift him up in the hair while Rickhaha and Omaha hold off the clipper nipper. Turns out Rudy use the magic chalk to draw a bridge, which after everyone arrived Rudy turned it into a draw bridge, causing the Clipper Nipper to be on the other side. Afterwards Omaha showed them the map again, this time to the location of the Smooch, where they discovered a giant nest while the Haha Men are watching from afar. While Rudy and the others wondered what the Smooch looked like, Snap (being terrified) encountered The Smooch, revealing it to be a tall female bird with big red lips, black stocking and red heels. As it seems that the smooch has set its sights on Snap, Snap started to run only for the Smooch to catch up with him as it prepared to give Snap a large kiss. Rudy tried to save Snap, only to be stopped by the Haha Men, with Mahahman telling him not to interfere with The Smooch as he delivered a giant kiss, causing it to fly away.
While it seems that nothing happened, Snap started to laugh uncontrollably as it was revealed that when someone get smooched by the smooch, they are unable to stop laughing, even when they tried to be serious as the Haha men revealed they do this every year as it is a great honor. After Snap laugh and insulted Penny's glasses, The Haha men revealed that the only way for the person who was smooched by the smooch need to kiss someone who never been smooch and Snap started chasing Penny, who ran from Snap but was ultimately smooched by Snap, curing him from the effect.
Unfortunately, since Penny was kissed by Snap, she now is unable to stop laugh and with Rudy being the only one left, Penny started chasing Rudy, who attempted to keep himself from getting kiss by Penny. While Penny tried to tell Rudy she needs to kiss him in order to stop laughing, Rudy came up with a plan to trap her in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich trap, where Snap said that if she falls into it, she'll be trap. Not wanting to hurt his friend, Rudy decides to help her by allowing himself to be smooched, where upon seeing Rudy Penny leapt toward him, causing both of them to fall in the trap and at the same time, kissed him off screen.
Afterwards, The Haha Men opened the trap and while Penny was cure from the effects, Rudy is sadly now under the effect of the smooch laugh. After the Haha Men celebrate that the trio has been smooched, Penny demand to know what the cure since there's no one else to transfer the smooch and the Haha Men revealed in a musical number that the cure is taking lime juice and mix it with coconut juice and drinking it, which also led to a big celebration party. Penny then asked Mahahman that if the cure was lime and coconut juice, why didn't they mention it in the first place to cure Snap and Mahahaman revealed that if they did that, they would miss of the party, ending with The Smooch flying to the screen and kissing it, ending the cartoon.
