[bell tinkling]

You rang?

Again?

Oh, Eleanor, thank goodness.

Can I please trouble you
for some more tea?

[sneezes]

Sure, sure.

You mean
like the one right next to you?

That I just brought you?

Yeah, I just need it topped off.

It's already cooling down.

It's the warmth of the tea
that really soothes my throat.

[coughing]

Happy to.

Won't be but a moment.

Thank you, Ellie.
You're a lifesaver.

[bell tinkling]

Is there something else?

Don't forget the lemon and honey.

And see how Jeanette
is coming along with my soup.

I'm...
I'm starting to feel a bit peckish.

Brittany would like to know
how her soup is coming.

[sighs] Almost ready.

Didn't you just bring her some tea?

Yep. Yes, I did.

Ellie, are you okay?

No, Jeanette, no!
I am not okay!

I am losing it.

-If I hear that bell one more time...
-[bell tinkling]

[groans]

So, um,

so what we're trying to say, Brit,

is, you know,
that we're sisters.

So of course we're going
to take care of you when you're sick.

It's just that...

Just that... What?

[growling]

I think what Eleanor is trying to say is,

that, well, sometimes
you seem a little more,

you know, bossy,

than, um, grateful.

Bossy? I'm not bossy.

-[growling]
-Ellie...

Look, guys, you know
if the slipper were on the other foot

and one of you were sick,

I would take care of you, right?

I mean, you know that, right?

Um, yeah, yeah. Sure, Brit.

Of course we do.

Right, Eleanor? We know that.

Okay, well, that's comforting.

[bell tinkling]

What could she possibly want now?

Ellie, calm down.

It's just Alvin riding his bike.

[tinkling continues]

Hey, Alvin,
go ride your bike somewhere else!

What?
Newsflash, Eleanor, I live here!

Oh, sorry, Alvin.

[Eleanor] I'm just a little on edge.

Brittany's been sick the past three days
and we've been taking care of her.

But I mean, she said
she would of course do the same for us

if, you know, we were ever sick.

Yeah, right! Then let her prove it.

Oh, I love this idea!

Uh, I don't know.

Just say you caught a cold.

Yeah, maybe.

Yeah, you can have a cold
if you want.

I, however, plan to have
something a little more... exotic.

[Brittany] Hey, guys!

I'm feeling so much better now.

-[moaning]
-Oh, no! Are you guys sick?

I think we caught your cold, Brit.

Oh no, I'm so sorry.

Come on,
let's get the two of you up to bed.

[groaning]

There we go.

Are you both comfortable?

Is there anything I can get you?

I'd love that little gold bell.

Here you are.

Will there be anything else?

Oh, not at the moment,
but stay close.

Jeanette?

Oh, I'm good, too. Thanks, Brit.

Okay. Get some rest.

Now if you need anything,
I'll be right...

[bell tinkling]

Yes, Ellie?
Did you forget something?

No, just, you know, testing it out.
Making sure it works.

Oh, okay, well,
it seems to be working just fine.

[bell tinkling]

Whoops! Sorry.

That was an accident.

Okay.

[snoring]

[screaming]

What? What is it?

Oh, no. Oh, gosh!

I got the jeedle-beedles!

Huh? The what?

Jeanette, what are the jeedle-beedles?

Oh, uh, the jeedle-beedles are...

where you, uh,

you see ghosts.

What? Real ghosts?

Sometimes, yeah.

There's one right behind you!

[screams] What do I do?

They need to be distracted.
Entertain them.

Oh? How?

Dance, dance!

Ballet? Do you want ballet?

-I don't know ballet!
-Fake it!

♪ La, la, la ♪

♪ La, la, la... ♪

-They don't like it!
-Maybe they want leaps, lots of leaps!

Leaps, leaps...

[yelping]

Okay, that's enough.
They seem happy.

No, they don't!
How would you know? You don't see them.

Uh, try... Try singing some opera.

It's an old opera ghost.

[warbling opera]

Shh, shh! Brit!

Oh, thank goodness.
They're gone.

-Oh.
-I'd better get back to bed.

[birds tweeting]

Do either of you
need anything washed?

No, thanks.

Oh, I got some really stinky socks.

Um... Let's see.

[sniffing]

Ugh! Oh, my gosh. Yeah.
They're under my bed.

Oh, man, Eleanor!

Ugh, yeah! Those are the ones.
Get them away.

-How's it going?
-Perfectly!

Yeah, but we're done now, right?

No, no, you are not done.
You've got to amp it up.

Yeah, hello?
That was just one night.

Although, I really thought
she'd crack by now.

Yeah, because you're not demanding
enough. You got to raise the bar.

Raise the bar?

Oh, yeah. Raise the bar!

Oh, Simon.

I'm doing this really cool project
for video class

and I want it to look
like someone's floating in the air,

so how would I do that?

That is a piece of cake, Alvin.

Let me just get my fishing wire.

[Chipmunk song playing]

[tinkling]

-[Eleanor screaming]
-What's happening?

Oh, no! I think I've got a case
of the floaty-floats!

Huh? What?

The floaty-floats, Brittany!

Oh! Jeanette,
what are the floaty-floats?

Oh, yeah, uh, well, um,

the floaty-floats are, um,

when you're so...

Weak, weak!

Yeah, weak,

you're so weak,
you just begin,

you know,
floating out of your bed.

What? That's a thing?

Brittany, it's a thing, okay?
Now help me!

[groaning] Okay.

That's every dictionary
and encyclopedia we have.

Yep, that should do the trick.

-Oh, no.
-What?

That opera ghost on your bed is back.

[groans]

[sings operatically]

Eleanor, I can't do this anymore.

I'm going to tell Brittany
I'm over my cold.

Don't you dare.

It's only been two days. I just need you
to hang in there for one more day.

Oh, fine...

[tinkling]

[dramatic music playing]

[Eleanor] Oh, no! Oh, my gosh!

-Now what's going on?
-I got the Jimmy legs!

-The what?
-The Jimmy legs, the Jimmy legs!

-What is that?
-Jeanette?

The Jimmy legs are when your, uh...

-Legs.
-Right, your legs...

Are all, uh...

-Restless.
-Right, right, restless.

It's, uh...

Completely fake!

What? Fake?

Yeah, yeah. Fake.

As are, you know,
the jeedle-beedles and the floaty-floats.

Aw, man! Jeanette!

Wait, Eleanor, is this true?

Um, yeah. Yeah, it is.

But why?

Well, you know you said
you would of course take care of us

if we were sick,
and so I just wanted to see

if you actually would.

But it was childish and totally bratty,

and I'm... I'm so sorry, Brit.

Then how did you float out of your bed?

-Alvin.
-Alvin.

But it was mostly me, honestly.

Jeanette was a very reluctant accomplice,
at best.

Well, I...
I don't even know what to say.

I am...

[sneezes]

I hope you know now that I...

[sneezes]

Oh, no! She's relapsed.

[Brittany sneezing]

[sneezes]

Brit, I am so sorry.

Alvin told me
it was for a school video project.

And I believed him.

Don't look at me like that.

Isn't it punishment enough
that I caught a cold

and Dave is making me stay
in the same room with her?

Be quiet, Alvin!
I'm the only innocent one here.

And I'm going to make you miserable!

Well you're definitely doing
a great job there.

And the only thing I'm guilty of
is helping two dear friends in need.

Oh, please!

The only reason you helped at all...

-[tinkling]
-Can't hear you!

I can't hear you either!

[both yelling over each other]

Oh, you know,
when Brittany was sick

I foolishly thought there was
just no way this could get any worse.

[Brittany] Hello?

I got the Jimmy legs!

-Yeah, well you make the tea...
-Jimmy legs!

And I'll get started on the soup.

-Jimmy legs!
-Yep.

-[tinkling]
-[Brittany] Hey, anyone listening?

I've got me the jeedle-beedles!

And the floaty-floats!

Dave's back!

Dave!

You're home!

I bet you missed us!

-I did!
-Was it fun?

Yes, it was.
They even asked me to sing.

-Why?
-I used to sing in college.

And I really enjoyed it.

[Miss Miller] Hello, David!

Did you have a good time?
Meet any cute girls?

[all] Miss Miller!

We'll talk later.

OK. Thanks...

[school bell rings]

Guys, is your dad performing now?

-What?
-My mom saw him on the Internet.

And he was playing solo.

Oh no! Someone must have filmed Dave
at his reunion!

"David Seville sings solo"...
Oh, here it is!

♪ Yeah
In fact I'm feeling pretty lucky today ♪

♪ I've worked hard and paid my dues... ♪

He's good!

He's got over 12,000 hits!

What are they saying?

Here's a comment.

This person writes:
"My ears are hurting. Make it stop!"

"No wonder he had to train chipmunks
to sing his songs. He stinks!"

"The only thing worse than his music?
Never mind, there is nothing worse!"

Oh! Mean!

I'm writing back to those trolls!

Don't sink to their level!
They're sad, mean people,

who leave comments to hurt
people's feelings and ruin their day.

"You can't sing! Your hair is weird.
Your face is gross."

Why do they want to hurt other people?

Jeanette, what do you think
we should do?

Why are you asking me?

What's going on with her?

Guys, let's focus!

Let's make sure Dave never sees
these comments.

Oh, guys!

Have you seen my laptop?
Someone filmed me at the reunion.

Uh... Theodore took it in
for its annual check-up.

I've only had it for two months!
Do you know where he took it?

A computer store or...

Does it matter?
He tried to do something responsible.

What exactly is this?

It's a... It's a...

Don't you have a computer?

No, and I don't want one.

I've done fine all my life
without any modern gadgets.

What do you want me to do with it?

Oh, just keep it here for a while.

But why?

Because there are these trolls
doing mean things to Dave.

We don't want him to get hurt.

Trolls? Did you say trolls?

Yeah. So if you keep the computer here,
then they can't get to him.

They're in the computer?

Well, yeah...

Oh, dear!
Can they come after me?

No! They don't know you.

How many people know
about these trolls?

Well, everyone with a computer.

This is horrible!

This is the worst news
I've heard in ages!

Thanks, Miss Miller.

When will you take this back?

They'll forget about David in a week.
Then they'll go after somebody else.

Oh my goodness!

Let's see... Trolls...

Oh my!

Oh dear!
How did they get in the computer?

Ugh!

[Alvin] All right, team,

Dave wants to see this video.
To keep him away from computers,

we need everyone to stay vigilant.
All right?

[all] Right!

[Chipmunk song playing]

[phone rings]

Hello? Uh-huh.
Oh, you saw the video?

No, I haven't seen it yet. Uh-huh.

You want me to play
without the Chipmunks?

-What?
-For charity?

You know, why not?
OK, thank you.

I can't believe this.

This is terrible!

[Kevin] That's what he said!

Excuse me, boys!
Can you come in for a minute?

Sure...

Have you boys heard of trolls?

The kinds under bridges
or the ones in the computer?

In the computer.
So, they do exist?

-They do, all right!
-And they cause harm?

Oh, yeah! They do nasty stuff!
Destroy people!

I buried a couple of trolls
in my yard last night.

I'm sorry, what?

Oh, OK. Kevin... Kevin?
We should get going!

-Kevin?
-Yeah.

Yeah, my mom knows where I am.
I actually told a lot of people.

I texted
while you were getting the cookies.

We won't tell anyone.
We should be going.

[Kevin] Go!

Jeanette, is this too fancy
for an afternoon lunch?

Brit,
I don't know anything about fashion.

Ha, ha! Good point.

Eleanor?

Yes?

-Too fancy?
-Yes, the invitation said casual-nice.

Casual-nice?
What does that mean?

-It means you've got to change.
-Then I'm not going!

I'm sick of everyone judging others

by what they wear, by their hair,
by how much they have.

What about values and kindness?
What happened to those qualities?

[doorbell rings]

I believe this belongs to you.

What happened?
It was in the repair shop.

I'm sorry, David!
I buried it in my yard.

It's in your interest not to talk.
I'll tell the story.

An anonymous tip told me
she'd buried some trolls.

What are you talking about?

-She thought trolls were alive in it.
-I thought trolls were alive in it.

-I just said that!
-I feared they meant to harm you.

You want to do my job?
Want my badge?

-I just want some sleep.
-Me too!

Thanks, Miss Miller.

Excuse me, I have another emergency
across the street.

Miss Kramer wants me to arrest
an out-of-control opossum!

I have to tell her it's not my job.

Let me go with you!
I'll don't want to be alone!

-I want to go...
-You won't even know I'm with you.

-What about sleep?
-I think someone

woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

You want to tell me
what's going on?

No.

You'll hear things
that you just won't believe!

-It's a horrible place...
-Guys!

My ego's not fragile. I can handle
negative comments. Let's look.

[gloomy music]

Even though you didn't eat dinner,

I thought cookies and tea
would make you feel better.

No, thanks.

What was that comment
about being too old?

I'm not old!

No, of course! You're not old.
You're no spring chicken.

You're more on the old side, but...

OK, Alvin.

Thank you, that's enough help.

Dave, how about you get up
and practice for the concert?

No, I'm cancelling the concert.

Dave!

It's too late to cancel!

Besides, trolls are just
a few sad, lonely souls.

They don't speak for everyone.

Thanks. I'll try to get some rest.
See you in the morning.

I love you, and your music,
and your hair,

and how nice you are.

Thanks, Theodore.

And don't worry,
I'll eat the cookies for you.

[Eleanor] This is so sad!

OK, yeah. Keep us posted.

What's going on?

Dave saw those comments about him
online.

And now he does not want to perform.

Ah, I can't take it!

She's been acting so weird lately.

[doorbell]

-Where's Dave?
-In his bedroom, but he's very...

Dave, can I talk to you?

If it's about me
getting hurt by trolls...

It's about me getting hurt
by trolls.

What could anyone say mean
about you?

That I'm not as good a performer
as my sisters.

I'm not pretty or stylish
like Brittany.

I look sloppy. I can't sing.

Why don't I brush my hair?
But I do! They say...

They're just a few sad, lonely souls.

You have your own unique style,
and I love it!

You do?

I think you're perfect
just the way you are.

-Really?
-Absolutely!

'Cause I think you're awesome.
And I loved your video.

You did?

They're laughing or crying,
I can't tell which.

Oh, Jeanette, look what they said
about this person!

We're in good company!

Wow! They attack everyone.

Jeanette, could I ask you a favor?

-[applause]
-[Dave] Thank you!

For my next song,
I'd like you to meet a friend of mine

and a terrific singer,
Jeanette Miller!
