[ humming ]

Roy:
Places! Places, everyone!

Roy? Watcha doin', big guy?

Esme! You're just in time.

I save you a seat for the show.

The show?

What show?

The one Dumpling
and I made for you.

[ squeaks ]

[ monster-case playing music ]

[ squeaking ]

We even got backup dancers.

[ squeaking ]

[ giggles ] Don't you
just love monsters?

[ squeaking ]

All right! Whoo-hoo!

What a show!

- [ squeaking ]
- Bravo!

[ squeaks ]

So? What did you think?

I loved it!

[ giggles ]

- [ monster-case playing music ]
- [ gasps ]

We've got a monster to watch.

Yes! Today we're
watching Simon.

- [ squeaks ]
- And he's being dropped off!

Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy,
oh, boy, oh boy.

- When do you think he'll get--
- [ doorbell rings ]

- [ gasps ] He's here!
- He's here!

[ both giggling ]

Esme and Roy: Simon!

Hi, Esme. Hi, Roy.

- [ squeaking ]
- Hi, Dumpling.

Oh, thanks for watching
my Simon tonight.

[ giggling ]

He has something very special
he'd like to see.

- Isn't that right, Sim-y?
- Yep.

Tonight the Great Swoozle Comet
will sh**t across the sky.

A comet? A comet!

Wait, what's a comet?

A comet is a giant ball
of dust and ice

that moves through outer space.

A giant, dusty, space snowball?

Tell me more.

The Great Swoozle Comet

only comes once
every six years.

Simon:
And it has six tails!

Just like I have six arms!

[ laughs ]

That's so cool!

I know! I even brought
my Super Swoozle telescope

so we can see it!

- Whoa!
- Whoa!

Well, it should be
quite a show.

And, speaking of shows,

I'm off to the theater!
[ chuckles ]

Swoozle-oo! Love ya!

- [ blows a kiss ] Bye!
- Bye, Grammy!

- Roy: See you later.
- Esme: Bye.

So Simon,

when can we see this comet?

When the dial points
to the top of this clock,

the Great Swoozle Comet
will swoosh across the sky.

Well, what are
we waiting for?

Let's get ready.

All: Yay!

[ giggles ]

[ squeaks ]

Thank you very much.

Why, thank you, Dumpling.

Roy: Don't mind if I do.

- [ gulps ] Mmm.
- Mmm.

[ ticking ]

[ gasps ] It's almost time
to see the comet!

Is the telescope ready?

Almost! I just need to make sure

the settings are right.

A twist here, a turn there.

And done!

Ooh! It's a beautiful night.

Simon:
Not a cloud in the sky.

[ gasps ] Except
for that giant one!

Simon:
And that one. And that one!

Don't worry, Simon.

It can't be that bad.

Let's take a look.

Roy:
See? There's still a...

spot where you can see the sky.

Uh... [ coughs ] Never mind.

This is not good.
Not good at all!

If these clouds don't move,

we won't be able to see
the Great Swoozle Comet!

Hmm. I wish there was
a way to move them.

Oh, I know!

[ various construction noises ]

A turn here, a crank there.

And... ta-da!

- Whoa.
- What is it?

Meet the super-duper
cloud-getter-ridder-of-er.

Complete with super-duper
blow away the clouds features.

Sounds super-duper,

but do you think
it'll work?

Those clouds are far away,

but if it means we might see

the Great Swoozle Comet,

it's worth a try.

Great. Let's give it a go.

[ machine whirring ]

- All: Whoa!
- [ squeaking ]

Roy, the clouds aren't moving.

Oh, you're right.

Let me take a look
at the machine!

Aah!

[ screaming ]

I'm good!

Well, my machine can
blow away Roys,

but I guess it can't
blow away any clouds.

It was a good try, big guy.

Oh, no!

It's almost time
to see the comet!

And the clouds
are still in the way!

Don't worry, Simon.
We'll figure something out.

Maybe we're just standing
in the wrong spot.

Yeah. There's
gotta be some place

where we can see the comet.

Everybody look for clear skies.

♪ Can you see it
from the swing? ♪

♪ Can you see it
from the door? ♪

♪ Can you see it from the top
of a big old dinosaur? ♪

♪ Can you see it
from the yard? ♪

♪ Can you see it
from a tree? ♪

♪ Can you see it
from the flowers? ♪

♪ I can only see a bee! ♪

♪ Can you see it
right-side up? ♪

♪ Can you see it
upside down? ♪

♪ All I can see is Esme
spinning round and round ♪

♪ Can you see it from the table
if you use a telescope? ♪

♪ Can you see it,
can you see it? ♪

♪ Can you see the sky? ♪

Nope.

[ all sigh ]

What are we going to do?

Everywhere we look,
the clouds are in the way!

And the Swoozle Comet
is gonna swoosh by any--

[ alarm rings ]

...minute.

Well, that does it. [ sniffles ]

I missed the Swoozle Comet.

[ sniffling ] I guess I'll have
to wait another six years...

to see it.

That's only... [ cries ]



[ crying ]

Uh-oh. Monster meltdown!

[ continues crying ]

- I know you're--
- [ blows into handkerchief ]

Oh. I know
you're feeling sad,

Simon, but I think
this'll help.

It's the glitter jar.

Shake it.

♪ When the glitter starts
to fall like snow ♪

- ♪ Take a deep breath ♪

- ♪ Nice and slow ♪

♪ Watch as it settles
all around ♪

♪ And feel your body

Do you feel any better?

Uh-huh.

Thanks, Esme. I'll just...
[ sniffles ]

pack up my telescope now.
[ blows into handkerchief ]

Aww, Simon.
He's still so sad.

It's really too bad.

It would've been a lot of fun

to see a comet
that looks like Simon.

Hmm.

A comet that looks like Simon?

[ gasps ] Wait a monster-minute.

That's it!

If Simon
can't see the comet,

maybe he can be
the comet.

I can be
the Great Swoozle Comet?

Yeah! We can make
our own night sky.

And you can pretend to be
the Great Swoozle Comet.

- What do you say?
- I say yes!

Oh, you were talking to Simon.

- [ giggles ] Yep.
- [ Simon giggles ]

I'd love to be
the Swoozle Comet!

Then get ready! It's playtime.

[ Esme whistles ]

[ grunts ] Huh?!

Whoa!

[ giggles ]

[ squeaking ]

- [ Esme laughing ]
- [ Roy giggling ]

Whoa! This really feels
like outer space!

Wait, is this outer space?

[ giggles ] Roy.

- OK, Simon. Are you ready?
- Simon: Ready!

Ladies and gentle-monsters,

here for your viewing pleasure

for the first time in six years,

please welcome the one...
the only...

the Great Swoozle Comet!

[ all cheering ]

Swoosh! Here I am!

Whoosh!

[ triumphant music playing ]

- And away we go!
- Whoosh!

Ooh, that planet is Saturn!

Simon:
I can tell
because of the rings.

Oh, yeah.
Let's get a closer look.

Hi, Saturn! It's me!

The Great Swoozle Comet!

Come on, Astronaut Dumpling.

Let's see if we can
spot the comet.

- [ squeaks ]
- [ gasps ] There it is!

It's amazing!

Hi, astronauts.
Bye, astronauts.

Whoa! That planet is Mars!

I can tell because it's red.

Oh, yeah. And there's the sun!

I can tell because...
it looks like the sun!

[ giggles ] Roy.

And now the Great Swoozle Comet

approaches planet Earth.

[ imitating dolls ]
Here it comes!

The Great Swoozle Comet!
This is incredible!

Hi, everybody! Whoosh!

[ gasps ] I can see my house!

Hi, Grammy! Hi, Willy!
Check out my comet dust!

[ giggles ]

Bye! See you next time!

[ giggles ]

So, how was it?

Being the Great Swoozle Comet

was the best ever!

I saw so many planets!

There was Saturn and Mars

and Earth and--

Thank you, Esme and Roy.

Aww. We loved playing
the Great Swoozle Comet
with you, too, Simon.

- You bet we did!
- Um, Roy?

Can the Great Swoozle Comet
fly again?

Of course it can.

Here we go!

- Simon: Whoo!
- [ Esme giggles ]

Esme:
"Training Day."

[ humming ]

- OK, Dumpling.
- [ squeaking ]

Today I'm gonna
teach you a trick

every monster pet should know:

How to jump through a hoop!

[ squeaking ]

- You got this, Dumpling!
- [ squeaking ]

Jump through the hoop!

[ squeaking ]

[ giggles ] No, Dumpling.

Not around the hoop.
Through the hoop!

- Like this!
- [ squeaking ]

[ giggling ]
Hey, that tickles!

Watcha guys doin'?

I'm trying to teach Dumpling

how to jump through a hoop,

but it's not going so well.

[ squeaking ]

Maybe I can help.

Here. You hold the hoop,

and I'll get...
♪ A munchy-munchy ♪

[ squeaking ]

- Yay, Dumpling!
- Whoo-hoo!

- You did it!
- All right!

- [ squeaking ]
- Thanks, Roy.

Guess all I needed
was your help.

- And a munchy-munchy.
- [ squeaks ]

[ squeaking ]

- Whoo-hoo!
- Yay!

- [ monster-case playing music ]
- [ Esme and Roy gasp ]

We've got a monster to watch.

Oh! Who is it?
Who is it? Who is it?!

Today we're watching...

nobody?

Nobody!

Who's that again?

I mean, we're not
watching anyone.

The ticket says
we don't have

a monster-sitting assignment.

No monster-sitting assignment?

So, um, what are we gonna do?

Hmm. [ gasps ]
I've got a great idea!

We can have
a monster-sitters
training day!

[ gasps ] Whoo-hoo!
I can't wait!

And I don't even know
what a training day is!

[ chuckles ]

So what is it?

[ giggles ]

A training day
is when we set up

monster-sitting challenges
for each other.

- [ squeaks ]
- [ giggles ]

Then we'll do the challenges
to practice our skills.

- [ squeaks ]
- You mean, like, making snacks

- and building pillow forts?
- [ squeaking ]

- And giving really big hugs?
- [ giggles ]

You got it, big guy.

Let's get started.

[ squeaks ]

OK, Roy. The backyard's
all set up for training day.

Whoo-hoo!

[ giggles ]

What am I doing first?

You're doing...

the monster-sitter
diaper challenge!

Yes!

All right.
Here's the situation.

Pretend we're monster-sitting

a baby monster.

- Aww.
- Suddenly, you smell something.

[ exclaims in disgust ]

Pee-ew!

The baby monster
needs his diaper changed,

and he needs it fast!

Are you up for the challenge?

[ grunting ]

Bring it on!

OK, baby monster. Come on out!

[ squeaking ]

[ giggles ] I need to put
a diaper on Dumpling?

- [ squeaking ]
- [ chuckles ]

This'll be easy.

On your mark, get set...

Diaper!

- [ squeaking ]
- Huh? [ chuckles ]

[ giggling ] Dumpling,
get back here!

[ squeaking ]

Whoa! [ chuckles ]
Got ya this time!

[ Dumpling squeaks ]

Hey. Ha ha!

Time's running out, Roy!

[ Roy grunting ]

Keep trying. Don't give up!

Dumpling! [ panting ]

Wait for me!

You can do it, Roy!

I know you can!

Three, two, one, and...

[ stopwatch beeps ]

- Time's up!
- [ panting ]

How'd I do?

Well, you managed to diaper
everything except Dumpling.

[ giggles ]
You even diapered me.

Oh, I don't know what happened.

I'm usually so good
at diapering monsters.

Don't let it get you down, Roy.

You just need
to keep practicing.

And Dumpling
is tough competition.

[ squeaks ]

[ giggles ]
I guess you're right.

- [ squeaks ]
- Well,

now it's time
for your first challenge.

And it's a doozy!

I'm ready!

OK, Esme. Pretend you're
watching a little monster

who's making a big mess.

Her dad will be home
any second,

and the house
has to be super clean!

Are you ready for...

the monster-sitter
clean-up challenge?!

Oh, yeah.
I'm a clean-up machine.

But I don't see a mess.

Not yet...

[ squeaking ]

[ wheels squeaking ]

Introducing my latest invention!

The Messy Monster 3,000!

It's designed to make
a super big mess!

Nothin' this monster-sitter
can't handle.

OK. On your mark, get set...

clean up!

All right!

[ toys squeaking ]

I got this.

Good job, Esme,

but that was just the warm-up!

Warm-up?

[ machine dings ]

[ gasps ] Whoa!

Aah!

Where did you come from?!

Come back!

[ pants ] Whoo!

[ grunts ]

[ stopwatch ticking ]

Go, Esme! You can do it!

[ panting ]

Oh, no! Aah!

Too... many... toys!

Don't give up, Esme!
You're doing great!

Three, two, one... and--

[ stopwatch beeps ]

- Time's up!
- [ groans ]

I'm usually great
at cleaning up!

But that was... that was just--

Whoa.

What's going on?

We're usually so good
at this stuff.

Don't worry, big guy.

We still have
a few more challenges

to prove we're the best
monster-sitters ever.

You ready?

Ready.

- [ stopwatch beeps ]
- Ha! [ giggles ]

[ Dumpling squeaks ]

[ giggling ] Oh!

[ stopwatch beeps ]

- [ stopwatch beeps ]
- [ giggles ]

Yes!

Whoa! [ grunts ]

- [ stopwatch beeps ]
- Ohh.

Mmm.

[ squeaking ]

- [ squeaking ]
- Oh.

Aah!

[ stopwatch beeps ]

[ squeaking ]

- Oh!
- [ stopwatch beeps ]

Aah!

[ stopwatch beeps ]

I don't understand.

We're supposed to be
the best monster-sitters ever,

but we can't do
a single challenge!

What do we do? What do we do?

What do we do?!

Uh-oh. Monster-sitter meltdown.

Don't worry, big guy.

Everything will be OK.

[ sniffling ] It will?

Uh-huh.

But if we can't do

these monster-sitter challenges,

what kind
of monster-sitters are we?

Might as well just give up.

Oww! Huh?

[ gasps ]

[ grunting ]

[ sighs ]

Don't give up, Roy.

I can't be a monster-sitter
without you.

You can't?

No. You helped me

teach Dumpling her new trick.

[ squeaks ]

I did?

And who lifts me up

whenever there's
something I can't reach?

Well, I do.

And who always
helps me take care of

our favorite
little monsters?

I do! You're right, Esme.

We make a great team.

Team... Wait a monster-minute.

That's it!

We couldn't do the challenges

because we weren't
doing them as a team!

What do you say,
big guy?

Wanna try
the challenges again?

And this time
we'll work together.

Whoo-hoo!

[ gulps ] Let's do it!

Get ready. It's playtime.

Esme, since you
never gave up

and completed all
the monster-sitter
challenges,

I hereby present you
with a certificate of...

"monster-sitting
awesomeness."

Thanks, Roy.

And because
you never gave up,

I present you with...

a meatball pillow!

[ gasps ]

[ sniffling ] Thanks, Esme.

I've always wanted
to sleep on a meatball.

[ squeaking ]

Looks like we still
got it, big guy.

I knew it all along.
