[ giggles ] Sorry, Roy.
Couldn't help myself.

Esme, is it time
for the talent show yet?

I can't wait to sing
for everybody.

Almost, big guy.

Oh, first,

I need your help
with something.

Which ending
do you like better?

Jazz hands... or...

...this.

[ plays instruments ]

Too much?

[ giggles ] Just a little,

but good energy.

- [ music playing ]
- [ Esme gasps ]

We've got a monster to watch.

Actually, we've got a bunch

of monsters to watch.

Snuggs, Simon,
Hugo, and Fig

are all
in the talent show, too.

Just when I thought

I couldn't get
any more excited,

I did!

Whoo-hoo!

[ monster case whirring ]

[ honking ]

- [ Roy giggles ]
- [ Esme gasps ]

Come on.
They're at the park.

♪ They go together
like helmets and scooters ♪

♪ We go together like... ♪

♪ Two things that rhyme
with helmets and scooters ♪

- Whoo-hoo.
- Hee-hee.

Simon:
Esme and Roy are here.

- Hugo: Esme, Roy!
- Fig: Hi, guys.

Esme: Hey, guys.

Who wants
a monster-back ride?

[ all shouting and cheering ]

Fig: Yay!

[ monsters laughing ]

Whoa!

- [ Fig giggles ]
- Others: Whee!

[ giggles ]

Don't you just love monsters?

- [ Roy laughing ]
- Hugo: Whoo-hoo.

[ monsters giggling ]

So, you guys ready
for the talent show?

Uh-huh. The great Hugini

will be doing
his famous magic tricks.

What are you gonna do, Roy?

I'm gonna sing a song.

- Fig: Wow.
- Snuggs: Oh, I love songs.

We wanna hear.

Well, if you insist...
[ clears throat ]

[ vocalizing ]

OK. Here I go.

- [ inhales ]
- [ xylophone playing ]

Hold that note, Roy.

It's time to start the show,

and you're the first act.

Oh, boy. Oh, boy.
Oh, boy. Oh, boy!

- Welcome...
- [ applause ]

to the Monster-dale talent show!

We've got some
amazing acts today,

so let's get started.

Please put your hands
and claws together

for my best
furry friend... Roy!

[ audience cheering ]

Go get 'em!

[ microphone feedback screech ]

[ clears throat ]

[ inhales ]

[ singing vowels softly ]

[ coughs ]

[ singing softly ]

Psst. Roy, it's time
to sing your song.

Remember?

Roy will be right back

after a quick meatball break.

[ grunting ]

And now, for our next act...

Snuggs with his
extraordinary talent...

hugging!

Snuggs, you're on.

Oh, right... Hmm.

What happened out there, Roy?

Yeah. You didn't
sing your song.

It's just... when I saw all
those people, I got nervous...

and I froze. [ sighs ]

I don't think I'm gonna be able

to sing my song. [ sighs ]

Poor Roy.

I know.
He looks so sad.

I wish we could
cheer him up.

[ sighs ]

When I feel sad,

Roy always makes me laugh,

and then I feel better.

Simon, that's it!

Maybe if we
make Roy laugh

while he's on stage,
he won't feel nervous.

What do you say, Roy?

Wanna give it
another try?

How could I say no

to those cute
little monster faces?

♪ Let's do it ♪

[ whistles ]

All right, guys.
Time to get silly.

- [ monsters giggling ]
- Fig: Silly.

This is really funny.

- [ toy squeaks ]
- OK. I'm done now.

That was some
amazing hugging.

- Let's give Snuggs a hand.
- [ applause ]

[ giggles ] And a hug.

[ cheering ]

Ready?

And now, here he is again--

the monster with
a smile on his face

and a song
in his heart...

It's Roy!

Audience member: Awesome!

OK, guys.
Let's make Roy laugh.

[ shouting words
of encouragement ]

[ laughs ] Silly hats.

[ chuckles nervously ]

[ stammering ] Hat--
hat, hat! Hat.

All: Huh.

[ gulps ]

Hey, that hat song's
not bad.

♪ Hat, hat... Hat, hat ♪

Um, Roy will be right back,

but, uh, first,

here's Simon with
his monster-ific art.

[ applause ]

Aww, Roy.

I guess the silly hats
didn't work.

No luck.

[ sighs ] Sorry, guys.

I think I'm just
too nervous

to sing in front
of everyone.

There must be something

that'll make you
feel less nervous.

Something like...

Hiding in the bushes?

[ giggles ] No, silly.

Something like...
a good luck charm!

Oh, yeah.
A good luck charm.

- [ playing instruments ]
- Is this lucky?

- Esme: Roy!
- Fig: Too loud!

No one will be
able to hear you.

Hmm. There's gotta be
something in here

that's lucky and quiet.

Oh, this feather looks lucky.

Quiet, too.

Perfect. Just hold on
to that lucky feather,

and you'll do great.

[ audience gasps ]

- Let's give Simon a hand--
- [ applause ]

- ...or six!
- [ Simon giggles ]

Thank you.

And now, back for his moment
in the spotlight,

it's Roy!

OK, lucky feather,
do your thing.

[ breathes deeply ]

We go together like-- oh-oh.

Feather, feather--
feather... feather.

Ooh. That was even better
than the hat song.

♪ Feather, feather...
feather, feather ♪

Roy'll be right back,

but, uh, now let's
welcome the great Hugini.

and his lovely assistant-- Whoa!

[ giggles ] Fig!

- [ applause ]
- [ honks ]

Behold as I make
this slime disappear

before your very eyes.

[ grumbling nervously ]

You OK, big guy?

I wanna sing my song
for everyone,

but I'm too nervous.

What'll I do?
What'll I do?!

Esme, I think Roy
is having a meltdown.

Yep. Monster-sitter meltdown.

You guys wanna help me
calm him down?

Singing with you

made me feel
a lot better.

Wait a monster-minute.

That's it.

Maybe we can sing with you.

Then you won't feel so nervous.

Yeah! You'll be
with all your friends.

Will you guys really
help me sing my song?

- Simon: Yeah.
- Snuggs: Uh-huh.

[ giggling ]
Whoa! Let's do it!

You did it, Roy.

Well, I couldn't have done it

without my friends.

Thank you, guys.

Oh, I almost forgot.

Jazz hands!

[ cheering and applause ]

Singing with your friends
totally helped you

get over your stage fright.

I know, and now that
I'm not nervous anymore,

I started working
on a song for next year.

[ gulps ]

[ giggles ] I love it.

Esme:
"Monster's Little Helper."

OK, Roy. Guess what animal
I'm pretending to be.

Ooh, uh, give me a clue.

I have big grey ears,

a long trunk,

and I sound like this--

[ imitates an elephant ]

A cow. A horse.
Are you a mouse?

Roy...

[ both giggling ]

Just kidding.

That was a great elephant.

Now it's my turn.

- Hi, Roy.
- Aah! [ grunts ]

Oh... Lottie...
It's you.

Of course it's me.

At least I think it's me.

Let me think about that
for a second.

Yep. I'm me all right.

Anyway, you gonna
introduce me

to your friend,
the elephant?

Nice to meet you.
My name's Lottie,

and I live
right over there.

I like pie.
Do you like pie?

- Lottie--
- [ gasps ]

You remembered my name!

What's your name?

Ooh, let me guess. Is it Fufu?

It's Fufu, isn't it?

[ giggles ] Lottie, it's me.

Oh. Hi, Esme.

Where did Fufu go?

- [ music playing ]
- [ all gasp ]

We've got a monster to watch.

Today we're watching...
baby Fig.

Yes!

Oh, you're monster-sitting?
Can I help?

Please, please, please,

please, please.

Sure, Lottie.

Wahoozie!

I'll be right back.

Esme, are you sure
that's a good idea?

Whenever Lottie's around,
things always go...

um, how should I say this?

Wrong.

She means well, big guy.

Let's give her a chance.

I'm back. I can't wait
to be your helper today.

I brought my own Lottie case
and everything.

See?

- Oh!
- Whoopsie-doodle.

[ sniffing and gagging ]

Eww.

[ grunting ]

There.

Oh. You found
my lucky sock.

Thanks, Roy.

Doesn't it
smell so good?

[ sniffs ]

[ sighs ]

Well, what are you guys
waiting for?

Race you to Fig's house.

Wahoozie!

- Wait for us!
- Hold on, Lottie.

[ Esme and Lottie giggling ]

Roy:
Woo-hoo.

- Esme: Whoo-hoo!
- [ Roy chuckles ]

[ quacking ]

Here we are. Fig's house.

I wanna ring the bell!

[ horn honking ]

I love that horn.

Esme, Roy!

- Hi, Fig.
- Hey, Lottie.

Helping out
Esme and Roy today?

I sure am.

I'm gonna be
the best helper ever.

These two won't know

what they ever did without me.

Great! Well, I'm off
to hear some slime poetry,

but you guys have fun, OK?

Bye, Daddy.

Oh, and there
are sandwiches inside

if you're hungry.

Sandwiches?

Yes!

- Bye, Mr. Ooga.
- See you later.

Whoa!

[ Esme and Roy giggle ]

Thanks for the ride, Fig.

Welcome.

- Lottie: Wahoozie!
- Oh!

Yum! This sandwich

is delicious.

- Mmm. Is this fresh slime?
- [ Roy gasping and grunting ]

- Lottie!
- Whoa! Careful with that--

[ grunts ] ...sandwich.

Sandwich? I'm all done
with my sandwich.

Um... Roy?

You got a little slime
on your head.

[ indistinct muttering ]

There ya go.

Hey, I've got an idea.

Let's think of something
we can play with baby Fig.

Ooh. I can help.
I can help.

If there's one thing
people say about me,

it's that I'm helpful.

Or maybe it's
that I'm forgetful.

I forget. Anyway...

I'm sure I have something

we can use
in my Lottie case.

- Whoa.
- Not again.

Whoopsie-doodle.

[ giggles ] Huh?

Ooh. Flower.

[ sniffs ]

[ sneezes ]

[ giggles ]

Is it just me...

or does Fig look... smaller?

[ laughs ]
Esme, that's silly.

Babies get bigger,
not smaller.

Now let's see...

I have some swamp sticks,

a few onions,
a monster slipper--

oh, and I brought
sludge flowers.

Sludge flowers?

[ sniffs ] Hmm.
They're my favorite.

Here, Fig. Smell.

[ sniffs ]

No, no, no,
no, no, no.

What's wrong, Roy?

[ sneezes ]

[ giggles ]

[ gasps ]
Fig's shrinking.

Monster fact 612--

When Baby Oogas
smell sludge flowers,

they shrink.

Shrink?

They shrink?

Uh-huh. [ giggles ]

Don't worry, Esme.
Fig will be back

to her normal size
in no time.

We just have
to keep her away

from those sludge flowers.

[ sniffs ]

Oh, right.
[ chuckles nervously ]

I'll put these away.

What do you think, Fig?

Do you still wanna
play a game?

Play, play, play!

I can help find a game.

♪ We can pass
this ball around ♪

♪ Back and forth
along the ground ♪

♪ Ready, Fig? It's coming--
One, two, three ♪

[ giggles ]

♪ Lottie's great
at playing ball ♪

♪ I never, ever, let it fall ♪

Catch, Roy!

Whoa! Oh!

I'm OK.

Maybe we should play
something else.

all that stuff?

Ooh. Flowers.

[ sniffs ]

- [ gasps ]
- Uh-oh.

Ah... Ah... Ah...

[ sneezes ]

Whoa! [ giggles ]

Fig? Fig?!

She shrunk!

Where'd she go?

[ Fig giggles ]

I hiding.

Come find me.

Uh-oh.
Baby Fig is hiding.

We've gotta
look for her.

Roy, wait! Don't move
a monster-muscle.

We don't wanna step
on little Fig.

[ gasps ] You're right.

Fig is teeny-tiny,
and we can't even move.

What'll we do? What'll we do?!

It's OK, big guy.

Take a deep breath.

[ both inhale and exhale ]

Now repeat after me.

We will find Fig.

We will find Fig.

[ sighs ]
This is all my fault.

I guess I wasn't
a good helper after all.

[ sighs ] I'll just take
my things and fly away.

Fly away...

Wait a monster-minute.

That's it!

Lottie, we do need your help.

Lottie:
You do? What do you need?

Want me to sing a song?

Brush your tooth?
Paint your toenails?

[ giggles ] No, Lottie.

We need your help
finding baby Fig.

We can't move,
but you can fly.

Roy and I will guess
where she's hiding,

and you can fly over
to look for her.

Sort of like hide-and-seek.

Wahoozie!

Get ready, guys.

It's playtime.

OK, Roy. To find baby Fig,

we have to look
carefully for clues.

[ Fig giggles ]

[ gasps ] A clue!

The ball is moving.

Good eye, Roy.

Lottie, go see
if Fig's by the ball.

Ready or not, here I come.

[ giggles ] Whee!

Are you here?

Nope. Not by the ball.

[ sighs ] We will find Fig.

We will find Fig.

- [ metal clanking ]
- [ Esme, Roy and Lottie gasp ]

Another clue!

Quick, Lottie,
check the lamp.

Whee! [ giggles ]

Fig, are you over here?

Nope. Not by the lamp.

Oh. We will find Fig.
We will find Fig.

Don't worry, Roy.

We got this.

Just keep looking
for clues.

[ all gasp ]

- The chair!
- The chair!

Hurry, Lottie.
Check the chair.

♪ Oh, Fig ♪

Whee! Wahoo!

Lottie:
There you are!

Lottie found me.

[ chirps ]

I got her!
I got baby Fig!

- Phew.
- Yes! Go, Lottie!

OK, Fig. Go to Esme.

- Esme.
- Hi, Fig.

Thanks for your help, Lottie.

We never would have found
baby Fig without you.

I told you guys.

Helping is what
Lotties do best.

Now I can help you
all the time.

[ sarcastic ] Great.

Thanks for the best day ever.

[ chuckles ] Don't you
just love monsters?

See you later,
monster-sitters.

Wahoozie!

[ Fig giggles ]

- Look.
- Fig's growing.

Wow, Fig.
You're bigger already.

Uh-huh.

But you've still got
more growing to do.

How about we do something
nice and quiet while we wait?

Story, anyone?

- Oh, yeah.
- Yay!

...and the monsters
lived happily ever after.

- Yay.
- Whoo!

Look. Baby Fig is back
to her normal size.

I'm so glad playing
hide-and-seek

helped us find you.

Me, too.

Well, Fig,

what do you
wanna do now?

Fig hide.

You wanna play
hide-and-seek... again?

Uh-huh. Again, again.

One, two, three,
four, five.

Ready or not,
here we come.

[ all giggling ]

Esme:
I'm gonna find you.

[ music playing ]

I thought it might be fun

for my little Snugs
to go on a nature walk.

Nature walks
are tons of fun, Snugs.

I spy with my monster eye...

-something...
-[BIRD TWEETING]

-Aah!
-Whoa!

What was that?

There's nothing to be scared of.
Which way next, Roy?

Uh, more brown.

[GIGGLES] Roy,
that's not a trail, that's mud.

Oh. That explains a lot.

I don't think
we can use this map anymore.

But how will we get back?

-ALL: Esme and Roy!
