Pinky and the Brain

S02:É02 - S02:E02 - Collect 'Em All/Pinkasso

Collect 'Em All4006179The Brain's latest attempt at world domination involves the invention of the printing press. His plan is to make "The Brain" trading cards and create a "buzz" about himself. But The Brain doesn't realize that the paper he is printing his cards on was used previously to print a "girlie" calendar. Initially, the plan works and people march around the streets yelling "Brain, Brain!" Once people start collecting the cards and putting them together, however, they notice the girlie pictures and a backlash occurs against The Brain. What seemed to be a foolproof plan fails, leaving The Brain a powerless mouse again.Pinkasso407205Pinky poses as the great artist "Pinkasso." At a gallery showing, Pinkasso and his "nasal" collection become a huge hit. The Brain's scheme: if Pinkasso "dies," the value of the paintings will go up and sales will increase. The Brain spreads the news that Pinkasso is dead and gathers people to buy the last of the great artist's paintings. The plan is succeeding until Pinky grows too upset at the thought of Pinkasso's "death," and is moved to tears by the auctioneers' sadness. When Pinky reveals himself, everyone sees that Pinkasso is still alive and the bidders revolt against the mice, once again foiling their attempt to take over the world.
