"The Black Phone!" (stylized as "The BLACK PHONE!") is the 1,215th episode of SML Movies.
Plot[]
The video starts with Junior, saying "So guys, what do you want to do today?". Cody points out that Joseph's not here yet, so Junior asks Cody what he wants to do today. Cody says it feels weird to do something without Joseph. Junior asks where he thinks he's at. Cody says he doesn't know as Junior says it feels empty without him at his spot. Cody agrees as Junior asks if he wants to watch TV until he gets here, which Cody likes the idea, so Junior turns the TV on as the video cuts to the news, with Mr. Goodman reporting about multiple kids being kidnapped and the kidnapper leaving behind black balloons as he says the kidnapper's still on the loose and if they have any information, then call 911. After the news, Junior and Cody get shocked as Junior asks if he thinks Joseph was kidnapped. Cody says it's the only logical explanation for why he's not here, so Junior asks what they are going to do. Cody says he wants to go home to be safe, so Junior asks if he wants him to see if Chef Pee Pee can drive him home. Cody says he'll walk, but Junior asks if he wants to walk with a kidnapper on the loose. Cody questions the odds that the kidnapper kidnaps him too, saying he already has Joseph and a bunch of other kids as he asks how many kids he needs. Junior agrees with Cody, asking why he would pick him out of the other kids because he's a "pimple-face freak". Cody doesn't like this as he leaves, saying he hopes he gets kidnapped. Junior says he didn't mean it but then tells Cody to be safe. Outside, Cody is walking when he sees The Kidnapper. Cody says he hopes he's not the kidnapper. The Kidnapper says he is, but Cody says he's supposed to have black balloons. The Kidnapper explains that they filmed the video 3 days before Halloween and it's the best he has. Cody then says he sounds like the Charleyyy and Friends intro guy, which The Kidnapper says he is as he says the line “Charleyyy and Friends was filmed in front of a live audience”. Cody likes it as The Kidnapper asks if he wants to see a magic trick. Cody says he does as The Kidnapper says he's going to make him disappear as he then takes Cody. The video then cuts to the next day, where Junior says "So guys, what do you want to do today?" when he looks around and sees none of his friends are here, so he asks himself what he wants to do today. Junior says it doesn't sound right and there's no way both of his friends got kidnapped as he turns the news on, where Goodman reports about another kid that has been kidnapped and warns that if they are a child, be cautious and don't go outside until the manic has been captured. After the news, Junior gets shocked as he says he's going to find them and save them as he takes a pocketknife out and then leaves. Outside, Junior says he's going to save Joseph and Cody as no one takes his friends as he wishes that the kidnapper would get in his face as he would stab him so many times. The Kidnapper then shows up, saying "Yeah you would". Junior says he can't be the kidnapper as he has purple balloons and he's supposed to have black balloons, but The Kidnapper says he already explained to his friend that they couldn't find black balloon as he gets angry. Junior tells him to calm down, but the Kid Napper grabs Junior, saying he knows he's coming with him as Junior tries stabbing him, but The Kidnapper says he's coming with him. The video then cuts to The Kidnapper, saying he should snap his neck for what he did to his arm as he throws Junior onto a mattress. Junior looks at The Kidnapper as The Kidnapper shows him what he did to his arm and says he now looks like an "emo middle school girl", trying to get attention as he says it hurts. The Kidnapper then asks if he can see him as he waves his hand in front of Juniors eyes, which The Kidnapper says he can't even see him as he says he's not going to hurt him again. The Kidnapper then offers a soda as he can get a soda, but then hears his phone ring, which The Kidnapper says that's his phone ringing and he's going to answer the phone and get a soda as he then leaves. Junior asks where he is at as he gets up and screams for help, asking what the place is. Junior then sees a phone, so he tries to use it, but realizes it's not working, so he hangs up and asks how to get out. Junior goes to the door and tries to open it but realizes it's locked. Junior says there's no way out as he tries knocking on it, saying "Mister! Hello?". The video then cuts to Chef Pee Pee yelling for Junior, saying his SpongeBob Mac and Cheese cup is ready, but he doesn't hear Junior, so Chef Pee Pee yells again, saying he's not going to repeat himself again as he says his SpongeBob Mac and Cheese cup is ready and if he doesn't come down here, he's going to eat it. Chef Pee Pee still doesn't hear Junior, so he yells for Junior once again, telling him to come down before he beats his ass. Chef Pee Pee still doesn't hear Junior, so he leaves the kitchen, saying he's beating his ass. At the Red Couch, Chef Pee Pee asks why he is ignoring him, but he doesn't see Junior, so he asks where he is as he then realizes his pocketknife is missing, which scared Chef Pee Pee as he says it means Junior's out fighting crime as he leaves, saying he's in danger and he needs to call the cops. The video cuts to Junior, hearing ringing from the phone, so he goes to answer it, only for The Kidnapper to say it doesn't work and tells him to hang up. Junior complies as The Kidnapper sits down a plate of eggs, telling him to eat his eggs. Junior asks what's in it. The Kidnapper says salt and pepper, but Junior asks what if he poisoned it to kill him. The Kidnapper asks why he would do that, saying he already have him here as he tells him again to eat his eggs.
Junior screams for help, but The Kidnapper says no one can hear him since it's soundproof as he then leaves. Junior says he doesn't think he closed the door all the way, so he tries opening the door, but hears the phone ring, so he picks it up to hear its Cody, asking if he can hear him. Junior says he can, so Cody says the reception in hell is ass. Junior asks if he's in hell. Cody says he is as he says it turns out the bible was right as he wasn't supposed to be laying with men, doing the stuff he did as he says they're strict with that stuff and if you look at a woman lustfully, he has to rip his eyes out. Junior asks if he's dead. Cody says he is as the guy killed him. Junior asks if he means The Kidnapper. Cody confirms and says he got him as Junior says he's kidnapped by him and he doesn't want to die, which Cody says he also didn't want to die but look where he is now. Junior tells Cody that he's about to escape as when he left, he left the door cracked, so he's about to escape, but Cody says it's a trap. Junior asks if it's a trap. Cody says it is as if he opens the door, he'll see The Kidnapper sitting in a chair on the other side, shirtless, holding a belt, wearing a frowny face mask, and he's going to beat his ass and call him "naughty boy". Junior asks if he's going to beat his ass and call him "naughty boy". Cody says he is and that's how he died as he loved getting spankings, so he kept going out, which he was out 7-8 times as he got spanked to death. Junior asks if he left the door cracked 7 times and went out each time. Cody says sometimes he would lock it and he picked the lock just to get the spanking. Junior asks if he spanked him to death. Cody confirms as he says it was a good way to go, so Junior asks how he escapes if he can't go out there. Cody says he doesn't know as he died and if he knew, he wouldn't be dead, so Junior asks if he's beating his ass if he goes out. Cody says he is and he's going to be a "naughty boy", so Junior asks about the scrambled eggs. Cody says they're crack, and he's got to try as he cooks a mean scrambled egg. Junior says he never brought him the soda, but Cody says he's never going to get it. Junior asks what's hell like. Cody says it's hot like 86°, which he says is uncomfortable, but not fire as he says it's the only phone in hell, so he should get going as there's a big line and the Epstein guy had a lot of people to call, so he has to go. Junior says he's going to crack the door open and go as he wants to see the guy. Cody says ok, but he's getting a spanking. Junior says ok and he's going to try the eggs, which Cody says he should as Junior hangs up and peeps through the door as the camera shows The Kidnapper sitting in a chair on the other side, shirtless, holding a belt, and wearing a frowny face mask. Junior closes the door, saying he's going to take Cody's word as he then tries the eggs, which Junior likes them as the video cuts to Brooklyn T. Guy asking if somebody called the cops. Chef Pee Pee says the "stupid brat" is missing, but Brooklyn Guy gets confused, so Chef Pee Pee says it's Junior and he should know, but Brooklyn Guy asks if the "stupid brat" is his last name. Chef Pee Pee says it isn't, but it should be as Chef Pee Pee explains until he gets to the SpongeBob Mac and Cheese cup part as Brooklyn Guy asks if they have that. Chef Pee Pee says they finally made it as Brooklyn Guy asks if they got Squidward in it. Chef Pee Pee says they do and he can eat Squidward's grumpy ass as they get excited about it, but Chef Pee Pee gets back to explaining, saying he was making it when he called Junior's name, but he didn't come down. Brooklyn Guy says he definitely got kidnapped as any kid would come running for a SpongeBob Mac and Cheese cup. Chef Pee Pee gets confused, so Brooklyn Guy says there's a kidnapper going around, which he usually releases black balloons, but he's doing purple now as he says he didn't kidnap his daughter when Penelope comes in, saying hey. Brooklyn Guy asks what she wants as he says he told her to not follow him when he's at work. Penelope says she keeps having visions and know where the house is, but Brooklyn Guy doesn't believe it as he says she's like her mother and he hates her, but Penelope says she can take him to The Kidnapper. Brooklyn Guy declines, saying he will do his own police work as they both then leave. The video cuts to Junior, saying the eggs were good and he would get kidnapped again to have one more plate as the phone then rings. Junior picks it up to hear its Joseph. Junior asks if he's dead. Joseph says he is as he got his brain stumped out and he lost an eye. Junior asks if he's in hell. Joseph says he is in heaven, partying with God. Junior asks how he got in heaven, so Joseph says he repented to God before he took his last breath. Junior then asks if he heard Cody's in hell, which shocks Joseph as he says he was looking around for him, but forget he was gay. Junior asks what's he been doing in heaven. Joseph says he's been playing basketball, and recording music with Juice WRLD, Lil Peep, and Rich Homie Quan. Junior likes that as Joseph says God has a studio, which he loves rap music. Joseph says God's Mexican as he has a buffet with empanadas and quesadillas. Junior asks if he tried the scrambled eggs before he died. Joseph says he liked it as Junior says if the guy stopped kidnapping kids and focused on a restaurant that made scrambled eggs, he would put Waffle House out of business. Joseph says he would like it and Waffle House and IHOP would have to make desert.
This goes on until Junior asks how he escapes. Joseph says he's asleep right now as he took too much cough syrup, so he should break out. Junior asks if he's asleep, which Joseph says he is as he says it's a combination lock on the door. Junior asks for the combination, which Joseph says he wrote it on the wall as Junior then hangs up and looks for the combination. Junior finds it and sees it says "1723 32", which he gets confused at it until the phone rings. Junior answers and it's Regis Philbin, who says he's with Cody who needs help on the million-dollar question. Regis starts the 30 seconds as Cody explains that he'll go to heaven if he gets the question right and says "The Earth is approximately how many miles away" and gives the answers of 9.3 million, 39 million, 39 million and 193 million. Junior tries to answer it but fails as the phone then disconnects, so Junior hangs up and goes through the door where he sees The Kidnapper sleeping on a chair. Junior goes to the combination lock and tries to unlock it but fails as The Kidnapper wakes up and chases after Junior, which he manages to get him as he tells him to shut up or he'll kill him. Brooklyn Guy is then seen, saying he doesn't know where to look as there's a lot of kids missing. Brooklyn Guy then goes inside, saying "Oh well" as the video cuts to The Kidnapper putting Junior on the mattress, calling him a "naughty boy" as he takes away the eggs, upsetting Junior as he then leaves. Junior questions how he caught up so fast as he hears the phone ring. Junior answers and it's Bully. Junior asks if he's dead. Bully says he is and he killed him. Junior asks if he's in heaven or hell, which Bully says hell as he says there's a lot of people down here. Junior asks if he saw Cody on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? and if he won. Bully says no as he "fucked" him over with the last question, but Junior says he was reading the question so fast that he couldn't understand. Cody asks if it's Junior as he takes the phone from Bully and asks Junior if he couldn't answer the question. Junior says he was reading it so fast and he has to see the numbers to read them as Cody then leaves. Junior says he deserves to be in hell as Bully says he's back. Junior says he tried to escape and the guy tackled him, beat him up, and he doesn't know how to get out. Bully says he has to kick his ass. Junior asks if he has too as he says the guy's huge, but Bully says he has a mask on, meaning he can't see too good, and there's a sledgehammer on a ground, so he should wait for him to come in and then hit him with that. Junior asks why he didn't use it, which Bully says that's why he's calling him as he wished he'd thought of it, and he felt stupid after he killed him. Junior asks if he just hits him in the head with it. Bully confirms, so Junior hangs up as the video cuts to Chris Netherton, saying he'll get to the "sugar" later after he figures out what happened to the missing kids. Chris tells The Kidnapper that he thinks he's getting close to figuring out what happened to the missing kids. The Kidnapper takes the mask off and asks if there's missing kids. Chris confirms and says all the kids went missing. The Kidnapper asks if it's crazy. Chris agrees as The Kidnapper asks if he's cop. Chris says no, so The Kidnapper tells him to stop acting like one and eat some eggs as he sits down a plate of eggs. Chris says he loves scrambled eggs as The Kidnapper asks what else he knows about it. Chris says not a lot, but The Kidnapper says he sounds like Scooby Doo, so he tells him to get a life and figure it out. Chris calls it mean as The Kidnapper says he has until Tuesday to get out. Chris says he thought he said he could stay as long as he wants, but The Kidnapper says things change as he then leaves, saying he has chores to do and tells him to eat his eggs. The video then cuts to Junior, saying he's waiting for him to open the door and then he'll kill him. Chris then comes in, questioning what's going on and asks Junior if he's one of the missing kids. Junior says he is, so Chris says his brother's the kidnapped and he was wondering about all the masks, the weapons, and him talking about "naughty boys" as he says it's making sense but then sniffs and asks if he's been eating eggs. Junior says he's been feeding him eggs as Chris says it's his recipe as he says he stole his recipe and been kidnapping kids as he says he's going to have a word with him. Junior thanks Chris as he then sees Chris get killed by The Kidnapper, who says "Naughty Naughty". Junior asks if he killed his own brother. The Kidnapper says he did and he's next, but Junior says the phone's been ringing and asks if he hears it, but The Kidnapper says it doesn't work as Junior then hits him with the sledgehammer, killing The Kidnapper as Junior throws the sledgehammer on The Kidnapper and says that was easy.
