[Clucking]

[Clucking angrily]

How can you relax

with that chicken
giving us the stink eye?

Meh, it's a well-honed skill.

[Clucking]
Ah!

Can't we just tell her we're
having her coop rebuilt?

No. The best way to
apologize is with a surprise.

Everyone knows that.

Plus the zombies
are brilliant builders!

[Zombies groaning]

[Groaning]

I don't get why it's up to us
to build her a new coop.

[Screaming]

You kids!
[Clucking]

Oh. Yeah.
[Laughing]

,

reclusive, celebrity guest.

I would obviously tend
to him myself, but...

I suspect the humans are
up to something nefarious.

[Laughing]

I must act swiftly.

Alas, you must
deal with the guest.

But try not to be so,
well... "Mavis."

Oh, so don't be a delightful,
wise beyond her years vampire?

No promises!

[Bell ringing]

Mr. Man, first name Sand--
AKA the Ruler of Sleep--

checking in for 500 years.

I'd like a quiet room please.

I'm a very light sleeper and
yes, I'm aware of the irony.

Welcome!
We've been expecting you!

[Construction
machinery pounding]

Oh!
The hotel is, uh, very loud!

What?

[Construction
machinery pounding]

Say what-the-what?!
Am I dreaming

or is that the Sandman?!

The rI've seen all of his
how-to-videos.

[Snoring]

Huh?
Uh...

The construction
will be done any moment, sir.

Wait for it...

I can't wait any longer!

Mr. Sandman,
I'm your biggest fan!

Can I have your automograph?
[Snoring]

The Standing Snore.

That was my third
most-popular video.

HANK:
You roped Zombie Michelangelo
into this?

You must really feel bad.

[Sniffling]
It's so... beautiful.

Pffft, I've seen better.

Then again, my peeps built the
pyramids so my standards--

just a bit higher than yours.

Check out what
a mummy can build.

It's the hotel!

You gotta use
your imagination.

[Screaming, phone ringing]

Yes, sir, yes, the construction
will be done any second now.

[Construction
machinery pounding]

Okay. Okay... Now!

[Sighing]

When I booked this room,

I was promised... quiet!

If you don't do something
about the noise, I will.

Great! I love it when guests
solve their own problems.

Enjoy your stay.

Crisis averted!

And that's how you
solve things "Mavis"-style.

[Construction
machinery pounding]

Leon, the only way
is if they all do.

[Clapping]

Eeep-slay...

Eeep-slay...

Eeep-slay!

Huh?
Weird.

I don't remember
going to sleep.

Check it out, Mavy-wavy.
[Laughing]

Ha. Hilarious.

Hey, Mavis!

What-what!
Whoa! Pedro?

Mmmm, rot dogs!

My favorite!

MAVIS:
W-W-W-Wendy?

Hiya, Mavis.
Look at me!

It's a nightmare come true!

Hank, how come you're
so normal looking?

That is the nicest thing
any monster's ever said to me.

Aunt Lydia!

I would love to stop and chat,

my little honey pie
sweetie poop, but I'm late.

I'm having the human
neighbors for brunch.

Honey pie? Sweetie?

You're finally gonna
eat the humans, huh?

Good for you.

Eat them?
[Doorbell ringing]

Kitty!
Muah-muah!

Donny!
It's been too long! Come!

TIFFANY:
Wah!

[Mavis gasping]
Two Tiffanys?

A pizza face? These arms?
It makes no sense.

It's almost like we're dreaming.

But how can we all
be in each other's dreams?

Unless the whole
world is a dream.

I think I know what's happening.

Hank is afraid of bubbles?

So! Lots of monsters
probably are!

Okay, yeah, but also...

[Snoring]

The Sandman's trapped
us in the dream world!

I remember hearing
him cast a sleep spell

when I was lurking outside
his room for an automograph.

What?
Why didn't you tell us?!

Oh, 'cause a second later, I had
delicious rot dogs for arms

and I got distracted, okay?!

Excuse me, Mr. Sandman? Hello?

Wake up!
[Screaming]

So what? We just have to
wait for him to wake up?

Yeah, when the
Sandman sleeps,

he sleeps for a long time.

[Gulping]
Like 500 years long?

'Cause that's how long
he checked in for!


[Screaming]

If I'm remembering
the video right,

we have to cross over from the
dream world and wake him up.

But to do that,
we've got to wake up.

How do we wake ourselves up?

Ow!
Ow!

Ow!
Ow!

ALL:
Ow!

Stop it!

Even though this is
absolutely my favorite

of the friend-named dances,

this is no time
for the Hank-arena.

Hank-arena?

I thought we were
calling it Phlegm-hank-o?

I can't help it.
I gotta pee!

Yes!
That is amazing!

Yeah, that's just weird, dude.

If Hank has to pee,
he'll wake up!

And once he's awake,

he can wake the Sandman up
in the real world,

and boom drac-alacka,
we're saved!

ALL:
Pee, Hank, pee!
Pee, Hank, pee! Pee, Hank, pee!

It's working!
He's waking up!

See you on
the other side, brother.

Hank, no!
What are you doing here?

I can't pee
with someone watching.

Watching?
Every monster's asleep.

Every monster, yeah,
but Diane is awake

and she was
poking around our room.

Y'know probably
'cause she has no coop.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

She'd better not eat my secret
stash of emergency chicken feed!

Ignoring that.
How is Diane awake?

Uh, she's a chicken.

The Sandman controls
the dreams of the monster world,

not the animal world.

Does no one read
the back of the cards anymore?!

Okay.
This is a good thing.

Diane is gonna
get us out of here.

If she does,
I'll give her three--

no, no, no no,
four grains of my chicken feed.

[Clucking]

Diane!

It's no use.
She can't hear you.

Ugh!
[Clucking]

[Gasping]
She saw the sand!

D'uh. When the Sandman
conjures a dream world,

sand is the constant
between it and the real one.

Common knowledge here, monsters!
Everyone step back.

I'm gonna try my mummy
sand-shifting thing.

[Straining]

[Clucking]

[Clucking]

Weird.
[Clucking]

[Yelping]

Maybe this isn't
such a good idea.

Look, if I know
one thing, it's sleep.

And dreams. And sand. And--
where am I going with this?

Anyway, I know this spell
like the back of my rot dogs.

Ha, in his dreams.

Oh!
[Chuckling]

Oh, bravo.
Oh.

Try and send her a message!

[Clucking]
Sandman!

She saw it!

Sleeping.
[Clucking]

You're doing it!

I know!

[Clucking angrily]

I think you made her mad.

Specifically at us.

I don't think she's gonna help.

Why would she be mad at us?

[Screaming]

Nope. Got it.
Totally remember now.

I bet she loves having
the hotel all to herself.

Then we just need to show her
something even better.

And now, the moment
we've all been waiting for!

Yeah, she still
can't hear you.

Chicken-bunn-gaaa!

[Laughing]

MAVIS:
Aw, look,
she found the hot tub!

I thought that was the bathroom.

[Clucking happily]

Now, just tell her we built this

and get her to
wake the Sandman up.

[Chuckling]

Ow!

Stop it, Ma.
I don't wanna go to school!

[Cheering]

It actually worked!

So long, dream world!

We won't miss you at all!

Aw, man,
what was I thinking?

I miss my rot dog arms.

Now, I have to get off
my butt to feed myself again?

I'm just glad to be me!

Something I learned
from the Sandman... sort of.

I have caught the human w*apon!

[Sneezing]

So, how is our special guest?

Um... great!

I found him a quiet place where
he could finally get some sleep.

[Sandman snoring]

[Clucking contentedly]

[Clucking]

[Bats HB

Ah! I blinked, Jett.

You win, again.

So... bored.

Huge news!

You're finally
returning my finger?

You mean my head-scratcher?
Not yet.

We interrupt
this very boring day

with urgent late-breaking news.

Famed fast food joint,
Roadkill Burgers,

will be closing tonight
at midnight...

forever.
[Sniffling]

That is big news!

Right?!

So, does that mean I'm not
getting my finger back?

Ow!
Thanks!

[Video game noises sounding]
[Chattering]

Oh, come on.

Well doneski!
That's the one.

Yes!
No, you can't play.

Aw, come on!

Uncle Gene!

Did you hear?! Roadkill Burgers

is closing down tonight.
Forever!

What?

Remember all the great times
we spent there together?

Yoi, yoi, do I!

[Both laughing]

[Both laughing]

You know, it isn't closed yet.

Yes! We should go for
one last beetle-burger blitz!

But if I don't beat this level,

I'll lose my spot
on the leader board.

So, what you're sayin' is you
need someone to play for you.

Well, my game coffin is souped
up with so many lives

pretty much
any monster could do it.

Oh, yeah! Gimme it!

[Both straining]

It's my turn!

WENDY:
Guys, we got this!

Okay, my little Mavy!

Come on, Uncle Gene!

GENE:
Roadkill trip!

Ah, they're gonna
bring us burgers back, right?

[Tires screeching]

[Screaming]

Look what they did
to my beautiful lawn!

Oh! Whoo!

Um, when's it
gonna be our turn?

When you acquire the subtle
touch of a true pro-- so, never.

But the casket is so loaded
with lives we can't mess up.

MALE VOICE:
Auto pilot de-activated.

Wait, what?
That was auto pilot?

You mean I wasn't
doing anything?

Ooh.

Lucky we have so many lives,
it shouldn't be a problem.

[Screaming]
Fire!

I am gonna order
so many stench fries.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
and a basket of bunion rings.

I can't wait for one
last hot grudge sundae.

Ooh, Uncle Gene,
turn right here.

There's the shortcut through the
Gremlin Patch we always take!

[Snoring]

Maybe it was left?

It just means more time for some
of those dizzy donuts you love!

[Tires screeching]

[Mavis and Gene laughing]

Donald!

MAVIS:
If we don't have
any more setbacks,

we'll be eating in no time.

[Screaming]

Isn't that Cornelius Shivers?

Aunt Lydia's favorite
romance novelist?

That's me, yes.

[Groaning]

Hey, buddy, need a lift?

No, we don't have time.

Roadkill Burgers
is gonna close soon!

Mavis, when a famous author
on a giant slug

falls in front of your car,
you make time.

[Chuckling]

It's the code of the road.

CORNELIUS:
Oh, thanks!

Um, I don't know
what happened, uh, there.

I was just waiting for
a ride to my book sliming,

[Yelping]

Whoa!
Wait, this isn't my pen.

Then, next thing you know,
I'm on the road!

Anyway, I really appreciate
you driving me to Scarajevo.

MAVIS:
Scarajevo?

But that's totally
the wrong direction!

Mavis, swamp-dumpling,

we'll still have time
to get a Roadkill burger.

CORNELIUS:
You won't even know I'm here.

[Chittering]

[Laughing]

[Screaming]

[Yelling]

[Screaming]

Ugh!

Oh, she broke.
You win.

Yes!

Are we there yet?!

Oh, we've been here
for ten minutes,

but I've been circling
so we could finish the game.

It's the code of the road!

Anyway, it's ah been a blast!
[Makes expl*si*n sound]

Okay, time to
kick it into overdrive!

Let's do this!

I don't think
your shortcut works.

Ya think?

Don't worry.

Nothing is going to stop us
from getting that burger.

But we still got
time for some...

doughnuts!
[Laughing]

[Screaming]

[Screaming]
Oh!

[Beeping]

I only have ten lives left?!

I can't do this!
I can't do this!

Pedro, you've wasted your entire
afterlife playing video games.

Sure, you're clearly
not as good as Gene,

but that doesn't
mean you can't maybe,

sort of, possibly do this!

Now that was a speech!

Yeah. Yeah, yeah you're right.

I can do this! I can-- oh...

This is more like it!

We might make it to
Roadkill Burgers after all.

As long as we don't
have any more--

Uh-oh.

Sounds like we've got
gremlins in the engine!

Probably shouldn't have cut
through that gremlin patch.

MAVIS:
Great.

Why is this happening!?

Let me try. I've been studying
the patterns of the game.

I think I've found
a sure-fire path to victory!

[Video game music playing]

Dude, you didn't even move!

And now we have one life left!

Give it back!
Give it back!

Give it back!

Oh, you can keep it.

[Giggling]
Ooh, it tickles!

Ooh! Ooh! Oh!

Oh, look. Hoo! Hah!

All right!
Kick it!

Wendy, Wendy, Wendy!
I'm the queen of my tummy!

This is the worst
Roadkill trip ever!

[Kitty screaming]

Uh-oh!

Mavis, get out of here!

You've ruined my lawn

for the last time!

There's no way
I'm leaving you behind.

It's us together or nothing!

There's no way
we can get there now!

I can't bat out like I used to.

[Straining]
That's why I got the wheelchair.

That's it!
Your wheelchair!

Go time!

KITTY:
You're mine!

♪ Throw that thing
in overdrive! ♪

♪ Crazy Vampires on the loose! ♪

I'm gonna bury you alive!

That's pretty nice rhyming lady!

Uh...

Ah!

Yes! Payback time.

Finally Kitty
gets her revenge and--

[Chittering]
[Screaming]

[Brakes screeching]

[Screaming]

Way to drive!

And Roadkill Burgers
is just up ahead!

Don't want to ruin the moment,

but we're kinda speeding
right towards a giant cliff.

[Both screaming]

MAVIS:
This is the best!

Way better than
any old video game!

I know! I can't believe
I said it either.

HANK: Yes!
PEDRO: Do it!

I got this!

[Mavis gasping]

MAVIS:
It's Roadkill Burgers!

And it's still open!
We're going to make it!

GENE:
Yes!

[Grunting]

Wow. Just... wow.

We were so close.

Oh, hey, dudes,
what's goin' on?

You went to
Roadkill Burgers?!

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just kept
talking about the place,

so I figured I'd check it out.

It's delicious!
Wow, so good.

You guys can totally
have the rest...

is what I would have said a
minute ago before I ate 'em all.

Sorry about that.
Just so good! Mmm!

I couldn't stop myself.

[Sighing]

I should be disappointed,

but you know, getting here was
actually a lot of fun.

Just like it always
is when we hang out.

GENE:
Yep. It's just too bad

we'll never get to have another
Roadkill Burger again.

MAVIS:
Yeah.

[All cheering]

FRANK:
We interrupt this video game

for a very important
announcement.

Roadkill Burgers is
re-opening... tonight!

GENE:
So, one last dizzy donut
before we go home?

Sure, Uncle Gene!
