01x19 - Blood Moon

[bunniefuu]

It's Halloween, children,

and there's much
to be afraid of.

Ghouls, goblins,

and those spooky
motion sensor decorations.

You know the ones.

But nothing's
more frightening

than what we'll see
this evening.

The sky will turn red.

Creepy things will happen.

For tonight,
there will be a blood moon!

You hear me?
I said a blood moon's coming.

-[both laugh]
-That's pretty spooky, Grandma.

But we're going to go get ready
for Halloween.

Blood moon.
[blows raspberry]

We're all doomed.

[thunder crashing]

All right, all right,
get in.

Lock them up, Bill!

That blood moon's
a-coming

and I'm not taking
any chances.

All right, Ma.

Ah, there you go.

Sorry, but it's just
for tonight.

Be on your best behavior.

[keys rattle]

All set.

Huh? Hello?

Someone there?

[creaking]

Hello?

I'm sure I heard
something.

[rattling]

[gulps]

Whoever's in there,
just come on out now.

[squawks]

Whew! You almost
had me there.

Well, let's get you
inside the--

hey, get back here, chicken.
Come here, you.

[shrieks]

[laughs]
Happy Halloween, Dad.

Bet you wish you'd fixed
that hole now, huh?

Did I scare you, Dad?

Uh, Dad?

[inhales]

[screams]

[crows cawing]

[Cricket]
I'll take that as a yes.

Can you believe it, Tilly?
Our first Halloween in Big City.

My hypothesis is that our
evening will be delicious.

I'm going to eat so much candy,
I'm going to throw up.

That way, I'll have room
for even more candy.

Ooh, I like
the costume, Tilly.

What are you?
A mad scientist?

Oh, no, I'm just a regular
scientist.

If I'm angered at all,
it is due to a lack of funding

for my research.

-[knock on door]
-[Bill] Hey, kids.

I just finished
locking up the animals,

and gave Grandma
her many medications.

Which means it's time for...

trick-or-treating!

Actually, Dad,
we've got some good news.

We don't need you
for Halloween this year.

What are you talking about?

[Cricket]
Back in the country,

houses were few
and far between.

You had to drive us around just
so we could trick-or-treat.

We'd drive for miles
and still hardly get any candy.

But here in the city,

homes are all
squished together.

We're going to get
ten times more candy

than we ever did
in the country.

So now your services
are completely unnecessary.

Isn't that great, Papa?

Me and Tilly can finally
trick-or-treat by ourselves.

But I always take you
trick-or-treating.

-Can't we just--
-Shh.

Your years of Halloween service
will not be forgotten.

But...

Tilly, you got the bucket
of fake blood?

-[Tilly] Fake?
-Hmm.

Beware the blood moon.

Oh, Grandma,
not this again.

Yes, this again.

Y'all stay inside tonight.

It's happening, Tilly.
Grandma's starting to lose it.

I'm warning you both!

A blood moon
on Halloween night

is a powerful thing.

After tonight, our family
may never be the same!

[all]
Aah!

Stay back.

Oh.

It's just the coffee maid
from next door.

Hey, I have a life
outside of work, you know.

Wait, is that a club?

-Yes.
-Ugh, whatever.

Just tell Cricket he left
this abomination in the café.

When I see him again,
I am going to--

-Booga, booga, booga!
-[screams]

[Cricket]
Happy Halloween, Gloria.

Uh, Gloria?

Look what you done, boy.

Now we got a body
on our hands.

Hi, Gloria.
You ready, brother?

Does candy taste sweet?

-Yes.
-Big City Halloween awaits!

Timber!

Look, kids, your dad's
a lumberjack.

Since Grandma's all worried
about tonight,

I figured I'd throw on
a costume

and come along
as your chaperone.

Oh, we're way ahead
of you, Dad.

Remy's coming, and he's bringing
his bodyguard Vasquez.

Hey, guys!

Master Remy,
allow me to assist you.

No, thank you.
I can get down on my--

-Master Remy!
-No. Don't help.

-[grunts]
-[costume squeaking]

Whoa, you look pretty mad
for a hot dog.

I am mad.
Did you see Vasquez?

He asked me weeks ago what I was
dressing up as for Halloween.

And sure enough,
on Halloween night,

he shows up wearing
the same thing.

Vasquez stole my idea.

Remy, I hear you,
I see you,

but there's no time
to worry about costume theft.

We got to go have
the greatest night of our lives!

[all]
Whoo!

Huh?

Whoa.

[clucks]

-What the...?
-[squawks]

-What's wrong with the animals?
-I will admit,

their behavior
is strange.

[animals groaning]

Very strange.

Oh, I get it.
Y'all trying to scare us, huh?

Well, you should leave that
to the professionals.

Aah! Demon pig!
Demon pig!

Aah! My buttery buns!

Huh? Master Remy!

Baby? Cynthia?
What's happening to y'all?

Aww. Life finds a way.

[squeals]

-[screams]
-Not good, guys.

This is not good.

Kids, hurry, get inside!

-[growls]
-We can't.

-[all squawking]
-[yells]

Don't worry, children.

I am your shield.

[all grunt]

What the heck was that?

That is a Halloween
blood moon.

I've never seen one myself,

but I've heard grisly tales
from times past.

Entire farms have been undone
by its wicked curse.

Families torn apart!

Well, hold on.

We're safe as long
as we stay inside the house.

I'm sure the blood moon
will fade in a few hours,

and everything
will be back to normal.

A few hours?
I can't wait that long.

Trick-or-treating
will be over.

Isn't there anything
we can do?

Nothing now. Bill should have
penned the animals beforehand.

But I did.

They must have broken out.

[groaning]

Huh?

Welcome back.

[screams]

I got to get out of here.

You can't leave.

No one can leave.

-What?
-You're trapped here, Gloria.

We all are.

But I have a party
to go to.

There is no way
I'm staying here.

-Wait!
-I'm coming, party!

Come back!
You don't understand!

-Oh, they are so weird.
-[growls]

Huh? What?

-[animals snarl]
-[fabric ripping]

-[Gloria screams]
-Ooh.

Get away.
I can't see.

[gasping and panting]

-Is she okay?
-Never mind her.

We have a real problem.

There's no escape.
No trick-or-treating.

Halloween is ruined!

[kids]
Trick or treat

Happy Halloween, kids.

[sighs]

-[bleats angrily]
-Aah!

I can't believe this.
Our first Halloween in Big City,

and this blood moon
comes along

and makes all
the farm animals crazy.

As a scientist,

this is a very unique
development.

It's trying to get in.

We need to barricade
the entrance.

Oh, easy there.
They won't get in.

We're safe as long
as we stay in the house.

I can feel my youth
draining away.

What is a boy without
his trick or treats?

Well, you know,

I think I may have a way you can
trick-or-treat after all.

Well, don't hold back.
Spit it out.

Who says you can't enjoy

the fun of trick-or-treating
indoors?

Say what now?

You'll get your
trick-or-treating,

and we'll be together
as a family.

It'll be fun.
Come on, everybody.

[Gloria]
Stupid animals. Stupid house.

I can't believe
I called in sick tonight

just to be stuck in a house
full of bozos.

For once, I had the chance
to go to an actual party.

I could have socialized.
I could have danced.

But, no.
Instead, I'm stuck inside

because of some
stupid animals!

[gasps]
Oh, my.

Grandma, what happens
if you are bitten

by a blood moon animal?

[grunts]

Kevin will be there,

and he'll be alone
with Shelby!

Hmm, I reckon
she'll either be fine,

or she'll turn
into one of them!

[squeals]

[shrieks]

Oh, my goodness,
it's begun.

This is an opportunity,
Grandma.

We must study her.

Study? I'm afraid it's too late
for that, Tilly.

This is the stupidest day
of my life.

Huh? What do you think
you're doing?

I'm taking no chances.

[grunts and hisses]

It's too dangerous
to let her roam free.

We got to keep her
locked up in here

until she changes.

Just a second, Grandma.

What if she escapes?

Shouldn't we find some tools
to defend ourselves?

Hmm.

Good thinking, Tilly.

I'll go get my bag
of weapons.

Don't go near her
till I get back.

Okay, I won't.

Don't worry, Gloria,
I'm going to help you.

Oh, thank goodness.

You're not crazy
like the rest of your family.

I'm going to cure you of
the demon illness you possess.

Oh, you're kidding me.

[animals squawking and lowing]

Trick-or-treating indoors.
This'll be fun.

How is this even
supposed to work?

[Bill]
You got to knock on the door.

Hello, I am an old lady.

Bill Green,
what are you doing?

There's no Bill here.

My name is... Jill.

Candy, please, Jill.

Oh, I've got something
even better than candy.

Tiny porcelain horses.

One for you, and you,
and can't forget you.

Ahh...

-[Bill] Remy, don't eat that.
-Aww.

[chickens clucking]

-[grunts]
-[electricity crackles]

Whoa, what happened
to the lights?

Not to worry. I'm sure the
lights will be back on soon.

Anyway, onto the next room.

I mean, house.

Master Remy,
I'll go check on the power.

You just stay here.

Does that work for you,
Master Remy?

Sure. You can do
whatever you want, Vasquez.

Whatever makes you happy.

Yes, sir.

Costume stealer.

[animals grunting and snarling]

[Vasquez]
What on earth?

That's more shocking than
anything I've seen tonight.

I have to tell the others.

[grunting]

Untie me right now.

The subject seems
to be changing.

-No, I'm not.
-[sniffs]

The subject smells
like a farm animal.

-What?
-The subject is developing

a taste for human flesh.

Tilly, untie me.

I'm going to miss
the party.

Don't you understand?

The subject knows my name

and is trying to manipulate me
into sympathizing.

I will not give in.

-What?
-She seems so human.

It's me!

[Cricket]
Okay, trick or treat. Open up.

Let's see if Dad
can top Jill.

Hey, if you don't want
your porcelain horse,

can I have it?

What's happening,
my dudes?

My name's, uh, Zill.

Come on in, kiddos.

Trick-or-treaters
don't usually come inside,

so that's stranger danger
right there.

But, okay.

-[bleating]
-Eww.

You little dudes
like bobbing for apples?

[both]
Do we? Yeah!

Great. Of course,
I'm fresh out of apples.

But I got these eggs.

It's pretty much the same.

Bite gently now,
because they are raw.

Is this some kind
of sick joke?

Oh, come on,
I'm trying here.

Zill can give you
a cool Halloween.

Just give him a chance.

There's nothing cool
about salmonella, "Zill."

[grunting]

I got one!
I got one!

Aww. I swallowed
some shell.

This stinks.

[snarling]

[animals scream fiercely]

I'm back. I even found
my old bear traps.

Tilly, what are you
doing in there?

-[jiggles doorknob]
-I told you to stay away.

[gasps]
I'm running out of time.

Let us begin phase two
of my research.

-What are you doing?
-Hold still.

I just need a small
saliva sample.

[grunts]

-[screams]
-Tilly!

I'm coming for you, baby!

Get away from my granddaughter,
demon!

No, Grandma, stay back.

My research must continue.
I've got this under control!

I should be up to my eyes
in candy right now.

But instead,
all I got is raw eggs

and a man who is terrible
at impressions.

I'm doing my best,
all right?

-[all gasp]
-Friends.

I've seen something
horrifying.

The animals didn't break through
the garage door.

It was open
from the outside.

Oh, great, now the animals
are growing fingers

and unlocking
their own locks.

It's the apocalypse.

Don't listen to him,
Cricket.

He'd steal the bun
off your own back

if you weren't looking.

Master Remy,
what are you talking about?

[yells]

You stole my costume!

You stole
my costume!

-This is unbelievable...
-I need you to listen to me...

Nobody listened to me
about the blood moon...

[overlapped shouting]

[squawks]

This is a time for study,
not hysteria.

[gasps]
Look.

[clucks]

How did that get in?

He must have come in through
Cricket's secret entrance.

[roaring]

[all scream]

They're in the house!

Miss Brenda is displaying signs
of aggression.

Stay back, devil!

[panting]

Get away.
I'm warning you.

Don't make me use
my outlets.

Tape, pens, rubber bands, tape.
How much tape do we need?

[whimpers and screams]

[snarls]

Huh? Wait a second.

Ah! No, bad demon!

Ha-ha!

Your weakness
is now my strength.

[clucking]

Everyone, listen up.
I'm a genius.

The animals don't like
the light.

Get back, demon.

Ah-ha!

Take that, chicken.

Right in the eyes.

[all panting]

Sorry, monsters, your dinner's
been moved to never.

Uh-oh.

[all shriek]

Aah!

All right,
door is secure.

Aah!

For now.

Is everyone all right?

Oh, yeah. A-okay.

[laughs nervously]

Well, at least we all
made it out of there.

[shrieks]

Morale is low.
Our one consolation is that

-it will all be over soon.
-That's right, sweetie.

The blood moon will be over
in a couple hours.

Right. That's what I meant.

A couple of hours?
We barely survived one.

Oh, I didn't think
it would be this bad.

You didn't think what
would be so bad?

What an odd thing to say.

Whatever could you mean
by that suspicious thing

you mumbled to yourself?

You're making me
real nervous, son,

with those suspicious
eyes of yours.

-Huh?
-No!

What the...
oh, my gosh.

The lock to the garage!

-[all gasp]
-Saboteur!

He was in league
with the animals.

Wait, no,
I can explain.

The truth is...

oh, you're right.

It was me.
I let the animals out.

-Why?
-I did it because...

I didn't want you
to trick-or-treat without me.

I know there wasn't much

to trick-or-treating
in the country,

but I loved it.

We'd drive the old country
roads, from house to house.

[chuckles]

And then pig out on candy
in the truck.

Oh, those were great times.

Halloween was something
we did together.

And I wouldn't trade that
for the world.

So when I saw you running off
by yourselves, I panicked.

But then I remembered
the blood moon.

I knew the animals would
go crazy and trap you at home.

I figured it would be fine
if I was careful.

I just wanted
to keep us together.

I realize this whole thing

turned into a big
whoopsie-daisy.

Oh, is that what
you call this?

A whoopsie-daisy?

You put the whole family
in danger.

And also,
no trick-or-treating!

Are you hearing this,
Tilly?

I hear it,
and I cannot absorb it.

Oh, and you broke Tilly
while you were at it.

Well, when you put it
like that...

Oh, Bill.

Well, you wanted us
to spend Halloween together,

so here we are.

Happy Halloween.

Well, I...

[sighs]

What's going to happen
to us, Grandma?

Well, we'll either
get eaten

or walk away from this event
unable to trust Bill ever again.

[both sigh]

[sighs]

Hmm.

What I did was...
well, it was downright pathetic.

But, dang it,
Halloween's not over yet.

There's an apartment building
next door.

If we can get there,
you can still trick-or-treat.

Did you forget about
the bloodthirsty animals

waiting outside the door?

We're not going
through the door.

Let's go get your Halloween.

[all gasp]

[all yelling and coughing]

That was a lot harder
than I thought.

[clucking and snarling]

Okay, if we move swiftly,
we shouldn't alert the animals.

Everyone be real quiet.

[pounding on door]

Trick or treat!

Oh, no.
A trick-or-treater.

-What are you doing? Stop it.
-Get away from there.

I know you're in there.

I can hear you
rustling around inside.

If you won't come out,
then I'll just come in.

[all]
No! No! Stop!

-Oh, no!
-[animals snarling]

Time to run.

[all panting and whimpering]

[Bill]
Come on, go!

[Cricket]
Get inside, get inside.

[grunts]

What?

-[kids] Trick-or-treat.
-[indistinct chattering]

[kids laughing]

It's beautiful.

-[squawks]
-Aah!

Looks like we'll get
to trick-or-treat after all.

Sounds great,
but move it along!

[all roaring]

[laughs]

[all]
Trick or treat!

-Now run for your lives.
-Huh?

Aah!

Trick or treat.
Run away!

-Give me that!
-Huh?

Aah!

[Cricket]
Happy Halloween!
The animals are coming!

[all panting]

Master Remy,
I have something to tell you.

Please, don't take this
the wrong way,

but I didn't steal
your costume idea.

I think you stole mine.

What? That's ridiculous.

I take you trick-or-treating
every year,

and I'm always a hot dog.

Don't you remember?

What? No, I...

Trick or treat.

Trick or treat.

Wow, I got so much candy!

[both laugh]

Aah!

[sobs]

All along,
I was the costume stealer.

You must be so mad
at me.

Not at all.
In fact, I'm so proud

I positively
influenced your life.

I guess we're just a couple
of weenies, huh?

We're more than weenies,
Master Remy.

We're friends.

[animals roaring]

Huh? Remy!

Keep moving.

[Cricket]
Oh, no.

It's a dead end.

Hey, it's the Greens.
What's happening?

-Move!
-Happy Halloween, Brett.

Great party, but you might
want to run now.

What's the hurry?
We got chips--

-Whoa!
-[all scream]

-[animals roaring]
-[guests scream]

Come on, guys.
Let's move.

[all panting]

[exclaims]

We're trapped.

I bring you into this world
and you take me out?

Just like that fortune-teller
predicted.

[whimpers]

Dad? Dad, what are you doing?

I'm buying you some time.

This'll give you a few moments
to enjoy your Halloween candy.

It's the least I can do
to make up for all this.

Come get me,
you bloodthirsty animals.

What?

[animals snarling]

Get away from my dad,
you beasts!

Aah!

Cricket, what are you doing?

Sorry, Dad, I was wrong.

I don't want to spend
my last moments eating candy.

I want to spend them
with you.

[shrieks]

If we're going down...

Then we're going down
as a family.

[animals roaring]

Oh, this is it.

Get... huh?

They've all stopped.

The animals
are back to normal.

[bleating and lowing]

-[all cheer]
-We made it.

From now on, I promise
we'll never go trick-or-treating

without you, Dad.

Just don't ever scare us
like this again.

-You got it.
-Hey, I'm alive.

Master Remy,
looks like it's over.

[coughs]

So, what are we dressing up
as next year?

[gasping]

I made it!
What'd I miss?

[all laugh]
