Deadtime Stories (2012–2014): Season 1, Episode 10 - Little Magic Shop of Horrors - full transcript
Bye, guys!
Have a great time!
I've got everything
under control!
[ both scream ]
Okay. you almost gave me
a heart attack that time.
You should have
seen your face.
[ scoffs ]
ha ha.
Very funny, you two.
All right.
Let's go get comfortable.
So, what do you guys
want to do?
Did you bring us
a Deadtime Story?
No, not this time.
Why not?
Well, I figured you guys had
had enough of them already.
Aw, man.
I love "Deadtime Stories."
Me, too.
Well, I'm sorry.
I...do have
a love story, though.
Oh, puke.
Well, don't you want to
know what it's called?
Not really.
"Revenge of the Goblin."
Hey, this is
a Deadtime Story.
Yes!
What's it about?
Flying monkeys.
What do you think it's about?
It's about goblins and the
horrible stuff that happens
when Nina
and her best friend Sammy
stumble upon the entrance
to their secret world.
Are you guys ready
to be scared?
Okay. chapter one.
"Nina Russo didn't hear
the footsteps behind her
"as she wandered
deeper into the woods.
"she was so absorbed
"in searching the ground
ahead of her
"that she never noticed
the horrible creature
at her back --
not until it was too late."
Aah!
Get that thing off me!
[ laughs ]
I mean it!
Stay away from me
with that thing!
Calm down.
It's not even real.
That's not even funny.
Yeah, it was.
You should have
seen yourself.
"aah! Get that thing
off of me!"
Yeah? Well, you're not gonna
think it's very funny tomorrow
when we get in trouble
for not handing in this project.
If we would have done it
yesterday like I wanted to,
we would have
already been done.
I don't even know
why I picked you as my partner.
Because I'm your best friend.
That's why.
Then stop messing around
and help me.
Can't we just look at
the rest of this stuff online?
I'm tired of looking
at leaves and trees.
I mean, really -- who cares
which way the veins are going
or whether or not
the edges are jagged?
Can't we just call this a
maple leaf and be done with it?
No.
Why not?
Because it's not
a maple leaf.
Well, then can we at least
hurry this up?
'cause I'm starving
to death
and I'm beginning to think
that we're lost.
Are we?
I don't know.
I honestly didn't think
that these woods
would be so deep.
You were the one who said
we should look in these woods.
That's because
Vinny's food truck
is right around the corner
from here.
I thought that we'd look
at a leaf or two
and then go get
a bite to eat.
I didn't think
that we'd be walking
around these woods
for hours.
Ugh! I can't believe you!
Me?!
You're the one that wanted to
find a "shumacher" oak.
Shumard oak, you idiot.
Whatever.
Let's just keep walking
in a straight line.
These woods
can't go on forever.
They got to let us out
at some point.
Well, hopefully
near Vinny's.
Do...
"shumacher" oaks
have doors?

maybe it's some kind
of tree house.
For who?
These woods are deserted.
I don't know.
But I say we find out.
Are you crazy?!
What if there's a maniac
in there?!
In the tree?
Yes, in the tree!
No way.
You've got to stop watching
all those scary shows.
Whoa!
Nina!
It -- it's huge in here!
You've got to
come see this.
Is there a maniac
in there?
No. just a-a couple
of goblins.
What?!
Goblin statues, I mean.
Who would put a statue
in a tree?
I don't know.
They almost look real.
They are
pretty awesome-looking.
What's with that ball?
I don't know.
Maybe it's, like,
a lava lamp or something.
A lava lamp? Really?
In case you haven't noticed,
we're in a tree trunk.
There's no electricity
in here.
Maybe it runs
on batteries.
What are you doing?!
Don't touch that thing!
It might be dangerous!
Will you chill already?
No, you chill already.
[ sighs ]
[ chuckles ]
whoa.
This thing's too cool.
I say we take it.
I say we don't.
It obviously belongs
to someone.
And for all we know,
it could be a mad scientist
or something.
You know,
I don't care what you say.
I'm taking this thing.
I never thought
that we'd make it here.
I thought we'd never make it
out of those woods.
Oh, no.
Tony Caputo and Mia Manetti
are here.
Just what I need.
Hey, Sammy!
Over here!
And bring little miss a-plus
with you, too!
I don't want to
go over there.
Me neither, but it's easier
than trying to ignore them.
[ sighs ]
sit.
So, listen, did you do
that "tree-leaf-bark" thing yet?
Why?
'cause Mia and I
haven't,
and we need to
copy someone's book.
No, we haven't
done it yet.
Mia: [ chuckling ]
I know you're lying.
You probably started
working on it last week.
Actually, Mia, we just started
working on it today.
Yeah. we've been in the woods
all morning.
You should have seen
what we found.
So, did you write
something or not?
I'm not gonna give you guys
our answers.
That's cheating.
[ scoffs ] you think?
Listen, Nina know-it-all,
if you want to make it
through the rest of this year
peacefully,
you're gonna give us
those answers.
Dude, just stop it.
[ whoosh ]
whoa.
What the heck
just happened?
I don't know. all I said was,
"dude, just stop it."
Well, everything stopped,
all right.
It's that ball. I told you
not to touch that thing.
Start.
[ whoosh ]
so, what's it
gonna be, Nina?
Yeah, 'cause you have
five seconds to decide.
Five...
What the...
Four...three...two...
Stop it.
[ whoosh ]
whoa! This thing
is the coolest ever!
What are you doing?!
I'm eating!
Are you kidding me?
That little ball
just froze everything up,
and you're eating?
I'm starving to death,
and this pizza's good.
You know,
you were right.
That tree we found
had to be taken over
by some mad scientist
or crazy wizard or something,
'cause this ball has some crazy,
mad powers.
And you're okay
with that?
I mean, we ought to
tell the police or something.
You're kidding me.
I'm keeping this thing.
We can finally go.
What about them?
We can't just leave
them like that.
Well, I'll just get them going
again when we're on our way out.
Start!
[ whoosh ]
Hey, Tony!
Thanks for lunch.
[ chuckles ]
[ cellphone ringing ]
[ cellphone beeps ]
Hey.
Sammy: Hey.
You're never gonna believe
what I did with this ball
when I got home.
I don't think
I want to know.
Oh, come on. it was great.
What?
Okay.
So, my mom,
she had us eat dinner early
'cause she has to
work tonight,
and she made
a ton of cauliflower
'cause my dad --
he loves it.
And me and my brother --
we hate it.
And I just froze everything with
this ball, and then I scraped
all my cauliflower
onto my brother's plate.
[ chuckles ]
you should have seen his face.
Glad you're having
so much fun with food.
I am.
[ dog barking ]
who's barking?
Bandit.
She must have gotten out
of my neighbor's yard again.
Why would they call
that beagle "Bandit"?
I mean, it is a girl.
I know, right?
Now I'm really gonna
mess with him.
I'm gonna
stop everything...
[ whoosh ]
...and I'm gonna
rearrange his room.
Whoa.
[ barking stops ]
Sammy, one of the goblins
from the tree trunk
is in my yard!
One of the goblin statues
is in your yard?
Yes! But he's not
a statue anymore!
He's alive!
Sammy: what do you think
happened to him?
Nina: I don't know
where he went.
Something outside
must have scared him,
'cause he just ran away.
I'm telling you, that goblin
wants his ball back,
and we're gonna
give it to him.
And I still think
you're imagining things.
How could a statue
come to life?
Are you kidding me?
You've been stopping time
with a ball
that we found
in a tree trunk,
and you're
questioning this?
Hey!
Don't worry about it.
You can have mine.
Oh, no.
That's not happening.
Okay, everyone.
Quiet down.
I hope you're all ready to turn
in your projects this morning
'cause I have
a big surprise for you.
We've got our workbook
right here, Mr. Noonan.
That's wonderful, Mr. Caputo.
Raise your hand next time.
Oh, man.
You've got to be kidding me.
This is a nightmare.
Tell me about it.
I hate this stupid class.
[ cellphone ringing ]
[ sighs ]
what now, mother?
[ cellphone beeps ]
all right.
I'll be back in a second.
Stay seated and behave.
What are you doing?
I'm fixing this,
and I'm getting even.
Stop.
[ whoosh ]
oh, man. this ought to
be good. [ chuckles ]
[ chuckles ]
thank you.
Sammy!
Did you see that?
Sammy, did you see?
There was a goblin.
Start.
[ whoosh ]
Sammy:
Tony, Tony, Tony.
That's not very nice.
Mr. Noonan is not a goofball.
Wait, wait, wait.
When the heck did he do that?
Oh, just a second ago.
You didn't see him?
All right, mister.
You're out of here.
It's the principal's office
for you.
I didn't do it, Mr. Noonan!
Really!
I've been framed!
You can practice your alibi
on the way to the office.
Go. now.
[ sighs ]
[ chuckles ]
you two are gonna
pay for this.
[ chuckles ]
I'm telling you!
There was a goblin running
down the hall
outside our classroom.
She was heading this way --
now, that's bizarre.
See? I told you.
Maybe it's just
a coincidence.
Don't even try it.
There's something
seriously wrong with that ball,
and we're
putting it back.
Why? Just because
we've seen
a couple of cute,
little goblin statues
running around?
[ sighs ]
I just don't see the harm
in keeping it. that's all.
I'm with Nina.
I think they should put it back.
I don't. I think
they should keep it.
But what about the goblins?
What if they're mean?
I think that's what Nina
was worried about, too.
What would you do?
Hmm.
That's a tough one.
I think I would figure out
who the goblins were
and what the orb was all about
before I made a decision.
Should we see what Nina
and Sammy decided to do?
Yeah.
Yeah.
"Nina and Sammy
fought over the orb
"all the way home
from school,
"and Sammy still
wouldn't give it up --
"that is, until Nina threatened
to stop being his best friend.
"that's when Sammy
finally gave in.
"unfortunately...
"Nina agreed to wait
until the weekend
to put it back."
Woman: in an unrelated story,
it appears that goblins
have taken over
the tristate area this week --
or should I say,
goblin statues.
In what the police
are describing...
[ volume increases ]
...as an orchestrated prank,
these goblin statues
seem to be appearing
at a number of sites
where there have been reports
of vandalism and looting.
While there have
been no leads yet,
the police are encouraging
anyone with information
to come forward
and contact the local police.
[ telephone rings ]
hey.
Nina: are you watching
the news?
No. I don't
watch the news.
Yeah, well,
we've got big problems.
What?
Just get over here now.
It's 11:00
on a school night.
How am I supposed to
do that?
Just stop everything
with that stupid ball-orb thing
and bring it with you.
[ sighs ] okay.
[ telephone beeps ]
you know, we could
just talk in your house.
Your parents are frozen.
I know, but it's too
creepy being in there
with them like that.
I still think we ought to
just take this back
where we found it
just like you said.
And I think we should take
it to the police tonight
and be done with it.
[ echoing ]
better still...
I think you should
just give it to me.
Don't even think
about bolting --
not if you want to survive.
Do something!
[ echoing ] if you
touch that orb, Illrick,
I'll rip
your heart out!
Blow it out your nose,
Baldrick!
Quick!
Give me that orb!
If you hand him the orb,
I'll rip your arms off!
If you guys want
this orb so bad...
Go and get it!
Oh, rats!
[ laughing ]
now both worlds are mine,
Illrick!
And those two little humans,
they're doomed!
[ laughs evilly ]
[ exhales sharply ]
[ grunts ]
hey!
What are you doing?
I need a break.
Now?
You can't take
a break now.
This is getting
really good.
Don't you want to find out
about Baldrick and Illrick?
I don't know.
They scare me a little bit.
Really?
What? Don't they scare
you guys, too?
What?
It's okay, really.
You can do this.
[ chuckling ]
oh, okay.
Here we go.
Come here.
[ chuckles ]
"Nina and Sammy were about to
run into Nina's house
to get away from Illrick --
when Illrick stopped them."
Illrick: go ahead!
Try to get away,
you foolish, little humans!
See how long you last.
I don't know where you think
you're going anyways.
Who do you think's
gonna help you?
Oh, no.
You didn't say "start"
before you threw
the ball!
That's right.
So now you have no choice
but to deal with me.
So, uh, let me ask
you something, kid.
What do you think
that orb was anyways?
A toy?
'cause I spent 1,000 years
figuring out how to build
that thing
and another 2,000 years
building it!
And you spent less than a week
ruining everything!
Ay-yi-yi-yi-
yi-yi-yi-yi-yi.
I am not trying
to hurt you.
I'm here to help.
Hey, you got anything to drink
in that house?
I am dying
of thirst here.
[ slurping ]
[ all sigh ]
so, Baldrick and the rest
of his followers --
he tried to
take over the earth
and just get rid
of all the humans?
Well,
that was his plan.
He wiped out a lot of people
the last go-round, too.
How?
Oh, you don't
want to know, kid.
So, you built that orb
to try to stop him
from doing it again?
I thought
if I could buy some time,
I could figure out a way
to restore balance
to both our worlds.
But Baldrick found out
about the orb,
and he followed me up here.
And just when I said "stop,"
he knocked it out of my hands.
So you froze, too.
Yep, unless
you're holding the orb
or touching someone who is
when you first initiate
the power,
you're not protected.
How come when we say "stop,"
the goblins don't?
Because you're human,
so the power of the orb
will only stop your people.
And apparently free mine.
Why?
I don't know, kid.
I didn't get a chance
to work out all the kinks yet.
Let me just tell you this.
If we don't get
that orb back from Baldrick,
you two are gonna end up
the only two humans on earth,
and Baldrick is gonna take
great pleasure
in hunting you down
for sport.
[ slurps ]
how do you know Baldrick
will be back in the tree trunk?
Because old habits
die hard.
Before all the problems, that
shumard oak was the only way
Baldrick and I got in and out
of goblinicus.
You've got to
be kidding me.
No, that tree stands right above
the house we grew up in.
You and Baldrick
grew up together?
[ sighs ]
he's my brother.
That's why I know him
like the back of my hand.
And trust me,
he's already down in goblinicus
playing Mr. big shot
and threatening
all the other goblins
with that orb.
But I still don't understand
why you need us to fix this.
Can't you just go down
and get the orb yourself
from Baldrick
and then freeze
all the other goblins?
Well, I could,
but if I do that,
there's no guarantee that
the humans will start up again.
Look, kid,
you stopped time,
so I'm thinking you need to
be the one to start it.
Come on. let's go.
[ sighs ]
[ sighs ]
what an idiot he is.
Are you sure
your plan will work?
No. but I do know my brother's
as gullible as he is greedy,
so I think we got
a pretty good shot at this.
You just need to stay hidden
until I say "now," you got it?
I got it.
What about you? Are you sure
you're gonna be okay?
Don't worry about me.
As long as we stay connected,
when you say "start,"
I'm sure I'll be fine.
[ grunts ] don't ask.
I just need you
to get behind that tree.
Don't come out
till I say "now."
You got it?
Yes.
Now go.
Hey, Baldrick!
You might want to bring
that orb
and your putrid green butt
up here!
'cause if you don't, I'm gonna
blow you to kingdom come!
There's a detonator
in that orb, Baldrick!
And I'm holding the button.
Go ahead!
Play chicken!
[ clucking ]
'cause you're gonna
be a dead duck in a minute.
You're lying.
Really?
Try me.
Give it to me!
Give me the orb,
and I'll give you the button.
That way we'll both be safe.
Fair enough?
Fine. on three.
One...
...two...
...three!
Aah!
I hope
that's your bad knee, too!
Give me the button!
Aah!
[ moaning ]
ha! I ought to
make you eat this!
[ grunts ]
aah!
Now!
You guys,
do something now!
Like what? He was supposed to
get the orb first.
I don't know,
but we have to help him.
Hey, Baldrick!
Illrick doesn't have
the real button! I do!
[ both grunt ]
get it! Get the orb!
Get the two humans!
There's no time! Now!
I don't want to --
not without you!
Do it, kid!
Do it before it's too late!
Start!
[ whoosh ]
[ crickets chirping ]
I hate this ending.
Because of Illrick?
But he's a hero.
Yeah. a frozen hero.
It's sad, huh?
Yeah, well,
it's not the ending.
So, buckle up, 'cause
we're still in for a bumpy ride.
"by the time
Nina and Sammy got back,
"time had ticked away
for over an hour.
"lucky for them,
neither of their parents
"had any idea
that they'd been missing.
"and even though everything
was right in the world again --
"well, in their world --
neither of them got
a minute's sleep."
If I didn't know
how dangerous it was,
I'd stop time so we could sleep
for a while.
Don't even think
about it.
I know.
I'm just kidding.
But there's no way
I'm gonna let Illrick down.
One day, I'm gonna find a way
to bring him back
and protect that orb
with my life.
Okay, everyone. it's time to
turn in your assignments.
Sammy, there's nothing
in my backpack.
What do you mean?
I mean there's
nothing in my bag!
Tony Caputo
took your stuff!
[ sighs ] that kid
is such a jerk.
Here's my assignment,
Mr. Noonan.
He's got my homework!
And that's not all he's got.
Go ahead.
Try to stop me.
[ whoosh ]
both: no!
[ both scream ]
[ all screaming ]
Have a great time!
I've got everything
under control!
[ both scream ]
Okay. you almost gave me
a heart attack that time.
You should have
seen your face.
[ scoffs ]
ha ha.
Very funny, you two.
All right.
Let's go get comfortable.
So, what do you guys
want to do?
Did you bring us
a Deadtime Story?
No, not this time.
Why not?
Well, I figured you guys had
had enough of them already.
Aw, man.
I love "Deadtime Stories."
Me, too.
Well, I'm sorry.
I...do have
a love story, though.
Oh, puke.
Well, don't you want to
know what it's called?
Not really.
"Revenge of the Goblin."
Hey, this is
a Deadtime Story.
Yes!
What's it about?
Flying monkeys.
What do you think it's about?
It's about goblins and the
horrible stuff that happens
when Nina
and her best friend Sammy
stumble upon the entrance
to their secret world.
Are you guys ready
to be scared?
Okay. chapter one.
"Nina Russo didn't hear

"she was so absorbed
"in searching the ground
ahead of her
"that she never noticed
the horrible creature
at her back --
not until it was too late."
Aah!
Get that thing off me!
[ laughs ]
I mean it!
Stay away from me
with that thing!
Calm down.
It's not even real.
That's not even funny.
Yeah, it was.
You should have
seen yourself.
"aah! Get that thing
off of me!"
Yeah? Well, you're not gonna
think it's very funny tomorrow
when we get in trouble
for not handing in this project.
If we would have done it

I don't even know

Can't we just call this a
maple leaf and be done with it?
No.
Why not?
Because it's not
a maple leaf.
Well, then can we at least

'cause I'm starving
to death

Well, hopefully
near Vinny's.
Do...
"shumacher" oaks
have doors?

it could be a mad scientist

I don't care what you say.
I'm taking this thing.

I thought we'd never make it

Oh, no.
Tony Caputo and Mia Manetti
are here.
Just what I need.

So, listen, did you do
that "tree-leaf-bark" thing yet?
Why?
'cause Mia and I
haven't,
and we need to
copy someone's book.
No, we haven't
done it yet.
Mia: [ chuckling ]
I know you're lying.
You probably started
working on it last week.
Actually, Mia, we just started
working on it today.
Yeah. we've been in the woods
all morning.
You should have seen
what we found.
So, did you write
something or not?
I'm not gonna give you guys
our answers.
That's cheating.
[ scoffs ] you think?
Listen, Nina know-it-all,
if you want to make it
through the rest of this year
peacefully,
you're gonna give us
those answers.
Dude, just stop it.
[ whoosh ]
whoa.
What the heck
just happened?
I don't know. all I said was,
"dude, just stop it."
Well, everything stopped,
all right.
It's that ball. I told you
not to touch that thing.
Start.
[ whoosh ]
so, what's it
gonna be, Nina?
Yeah, 'cause you have
five seconds to decide.
Five...
What the...
Four...three...two...
Stop it.
[ whoosh ]
whoa! This thing
is the coolest ever!
What are you doing?!
I'm eating!
Are you kidding me?
That little ball
just froze everything up,
and you're eating?
I'm starving to death,
and this pizza's good.
You know,
you were right.
That tree we found
had to be taken over
by some mad scientist
or crazy wizard or something,
'cause this ball has some crazy,
mad powers.
And you're okay
with that?
I mean, we ought to
tell the police or something.
You're kidding me.
I'm keeping this thing.
We can finally go.
What about them?
We can't just leave
them like that.
Well, I'll just get them going
again when we're on our way out.
Start!
[ whoosh ]
Hey, Tony!
Thanks for lunch.
[ chuckles ]
[ cellphone ringing ]
[ cellphone beeps ]
Hey.
Sammy: Hey.
You're never gonna believe
what I did with this ball
when I got home.
I don't think
I want to know.
Oh, come on. it was great.
What?
Okay.
So, my mom,
she had us eat dinner early
'cause she has to
work tonight,
and she made
a ton of cauliflower
'cause my dad --
he loves it.
And me and my brother --
we hate it.
And I just froze everything with
this ball, and then I scraped
all my cauliflower
onto my brother's plate.
[ chuckles ]
you should have seen his face.
Glad you're having
so much fun with food.
I am.
[ dog barking ]
who's barking?
Bandit.
She must have gotten out
of my neighbor's yard again.
Why would they call
that beagle "Bandit"?
I mean, it is a girl.
I know, right?
Now I'm really gonna
mess with him.
I'm gonna
stop everything...
[ whoosh ]
...and I'm gonna
rearrange his room.
Whoa.
[ barking stops ]
Sammy, one of the goblins
from the tree trunk
is in my yard!
One of the goblin statues
is in your yard?
Yes! But he's not
a statue anymore!
He's alive!
Sammy: what do you think
happened to him?
Nina: I don't know
where he went.
Something outside
must have scared him,
'cause he just ran away.
I'm telling you, that goblin
wants his ball back,
and we're gonna
give it to him.
And I still think
you're imagining things.
How could a statue
come to life?
Are you kidding me?
You've been stopping time
with a ball
that we found
in a tree trunk,
and you're
questioning this?
Hey!
Don't worry about it.
You can have mine.
Oh, no.
That's not happening.
Okay, everyone.
Quiet down.
I hope you're all ready to turn
in your projects this morning
'cause I have
a big surprise for you.
We've got our workbook
right here, Mr. Noonan.
That's wonderful, Mr. Caputo.
Raise your hand next time.
Oh, man.
You've got to be kidding me.
This is a nightmare.
Tell me about it.
I hate this stupid class.
[ cellphone ringing ]
[ sighs ]
what now, mother?
[ cellphone beeps ]
all right.
I'll be back in a second.
Stay seated and behave.
What are you doing?
I'm fixing this,
and I'm getting even.
Stop.
[ whoosh ]
oh, man. this ought to
be good. [ chuckles ]
[ chuckles ]
thank you.
Sammy!
Did you see that?
Sammy, did you see?
There was a goblin.
Start.
[ whoosh ]
Sammy:
Tony, Tony, Tony.
That's not very nice.
Mr. Noonan is not a goofball.
Wait, wait, wait.
When the heck did he do that?
Oh, just a second ago.
You didn't see him?
All right, mister.
You're out of here.
It's the principal's office
for you.
I didn't do it, Mr. Noonan!
Really!
I've been framed!
You can practice your alibi
on the way to the office.
Go. now.
[ sighs ]
[ chuckles ]
you two are gonna
pay for this.
[ chuckles ]
I'm telling you!
There was a goblin running
down the hall
outside our classroom.
She was heading this way --
now, that's bizarre.
See? I told you.
Maybe it's just
a coincidence.
Don't even try it.
There's something
seriously wrong with that ball,
and we're
putting it back.
Why? Just because
we've seen
a couple of cute,
little goblin statues
running around?
[ sighs ]
I just don't see the harm
in keeping it. that's all.
I'm with Nina.
I think they should put it back.
I don't. I think
they should keep it.
But what about the goblins?
What if they're mean?
I think that's what Nina
was worried about, too.
What would you do?
Hmm.
That's a tough one.
I think I would figure out
who the goblins were
and what the orb was all about
before I made a decision.
Should we see what Nina
and Sammy decided to do?
Yeah.
Yeah.
"Nina and Sammy
fought over the orb
"all the way home
from school,
"and Sammy still
wouldn't give it up --
"that is, until Nina threatened
to stop being his best friend.
"that's when Sammy
finally gave in.
"unfortunately...
"Nina agreed to wait
until the weekend
to put it back."
Woman: in an unrelated story,
it appears that goblins
have taken over
the tristate area this week --
or should I say,
goblin statues.
In what the police
are describing...
[ volume increases ]
...as an orchestrated prank,
these goblin statues
seem to be appearing
at a number of sites
where there have been reports
of vandalism and looting.
While there have
been no leads yet,
the police are encouraging
anyone with information
to come forward
and contact the local police.
[ telephone rings ]
hey.
Nina: are you watching
the news?
No. I don't
watch the news.
Yeah, well,
we've got big problems.
What?
Just get over here now.
It's 11:00
on a school night.
How am I supposed to
do that?
Just stop everything
with that stupid ball-orb thing
and bring it with you.
[ sighs ] okay.
[ telephone beeps ]
you know, we could
just talk in your house.
Your parents are frozen.
I know, but it's too
creepy being in there
with them like that.
I still think we ought to
just take this back
where we found it
just like you said.
And I think we should take
it to the police tonight
and be done with it.
[ echoing ]
better still...
I think you should
just give it to me.
Don't even think
about bolting --
not if you want to survive.
Do something!
[ echoing ] if you
touch that orb, Illrick,
I'll rip
your heart out!
Blow it out your nose,
Baldrick!
Quick!
Give me that orb!
If you hand him the orb,
I'll rip your arms off!
If you guys want
this orb so bad...
Go and get it!
Oh, rats!
[ laughing ]
now both worlds are mine,
Illrick!
And those two little humans,
they're doomed!
[ laughs evilly ]
[ exhales sharply ]
[ grunts ]
hey!
What are you doing?
I need a break.
Now?
You can't take
a break now.
This is getting
really good.
Don't you want to find out
about Baldrick and Illrick?
I don't know.
They scare me a little bit.
Really?
What? Don't they scare
you guys, too?
What?
It's okay, really.
You can do this.
[ chuckling ]
oh, okay.
Here we go.
Come here.
[ chuckles ]
"Nina and Sammy were about to
run into Nina's house
to get away from Illrick --
when Illrick stopped them."
Illrick: go ahead!
Try to get away,
you foolish, little humans!
See how long you last.
I don't know where you think
you're going anyways.
Who do you think's
gonna help you?
Oh, no.
You didn't say "start"
before you threw
the ball!
That's right.
So now you have no choice
but to deal with me.
So, uh, let me ask
you something, kid.
What do you think
that orb was anyways?
A toy?
'cause I spent 1,000 years
figuring out how to build
that thing
and another 2,000 years
building it!
And you spent less than a week
ruining everything!
Ay-yi-yi-yi-
yi-yi-yi-yi-yi.
I am not trying
to hurt you.
I'm here to help.
Hey, you got anything to drink
in that house?
I am dying
of thirst here.
[ slurping ]
[ all sigh ]
so, Baldrick and the rest
of his followers --
he tried to
take over the earth
and just get rid
of all the humans?
Well,
that was his plan.
He wiped out a lot of people
the last go-round, too.
How?
Oh, you don't
want to know, kid.
So, you built that orb
to try to stop him
from doing it again?
I thought
if I could buy some time,
I could figure out a way
to restore balance
to both our worlds.
But Baldrick found out
about the orb,
and he followed me up here.
And just when I said "stop,"
he knocked it out of my hands.
So you froze, too.
Yep, unless
you're holding the orb
or touching someone who is
when you first initiate
the power,
you're not protected.
How come when we say "stop,"
the goblins don't?
Because you're human,
so the power of the orb
will only stop your people.
And apparently free mine.
Why?
I don't know, kid.
I didn't get a chance
to work out all the kinks yet.
Let me just tell you this.
If we don't get
that orb back from Baldrick,
you two are gonna end up
the only two humans on earth,
and Baldrick is gonna take
great pleasure
in hunting you down
for sport.
[ slurps ]
how do you know Baldrick
will be back in the tree trunk?
Because old habits
die hard.
Before all the problems, that
shumard oak was the only way
Baldrick and I got in and out
of goblinicus.
You've got to
be kidding me.
No, that tree stands right above
the house we grew up in.
You and Baldrick
grew up together?
[ sighs ]
he's my brother.
That's why I know him
like the back of my hand.
And trust me,
he's already down in goblinicus
playing Mr. big shot
and threatening
all the other goblins
with that orb.
But I still don't understand
why you need us to fix this.
Can't you just go down
and get the orb yourself
from Baldrick
and then freeze
all the other goblins?
Well, I could,
but if I do that,
there's no guarantee that
the humans will start up again.
Look, kid,
you stopped time,
so I'm thinking you need to
be the one to start it.
Come on. let's go.
[ sighs ]
[ sighs ]
what an idiot he is.
Are you sure
your plan will work?
No. but I do know my brother's
as gullible as he is greedy,
so I think we got
a pretty good shot at this.
You just need to stay hidden
until I say "now," you got it?
I got it.
What about you? Are you sure
you're gonna be okay?
Don't worry about me.
As long as we stay connected,
when you say "start,"
I'm sure I'll be fine.
[ grunts ] don't ask.
I just need you
to get behind that tree.
Don't come out
till I say "now."
You got it?
Yes.
Now go.
Hey, Baldrick!
You might want to bring
that orb
and your putrid green butt
up here!
'cause if you don't, I'm gonna
blow you to kingdom come!
There's a detonator
in that orb, Baldrick!
And I'm holding the button.
Go ahead!
Play chicken!
[ clucking ]
'cause you're gonna
be a dead duck in a minute.
You're lying.
Really?
Try me.
Give it to me!
Give me the orb,
and I'll give you the button.
That way we'll both be safe.
Fair enough?
Fine. on three.
One...
...two...
...three!
Aah!
I hope
that's your bad knee, too!
Give me the button!
Aah!
[ moaning ]
ha! I ought to
make you eat this!
[ grunts ]
aah!
Now!
You guys,
do something now!
Like what? He was supposed to
get the orb first.
I don't know,
but we have to help him.
Hey, Baldrick!
Illrick doesn't have
the real button! I do!
[ both grunt ]
get it! Get the orb!
Get the two humans!
There's no time! Now!
I don't want to --
not without you!
Do it, kid!
Do it before it's too late!
Start!
[ whoosh ]
[ crickets chirping ]
I hate this ending.
Because of Illrick?
But he's a hero.
Yeah. a frozen hero.
It's sad, huh?
Yeah, well,
it's not the ending.
So, buckle up, 'cause
we're still in for a bumpy ride.
"by the time
Nina and Sammy got back,
"time had ticked away
for over an hour.
"lucky for them,
neither of their parents
"had any idea
that they'd been missing.
"and even though everything
was right in the world again --
"well, in their world --
neither of them got
a minute's sleep."
If I didn't know
how dangerous it was,
I'd stop time so we could sleep
for a while.
Don't even think
about it.
I know.
I'm just kidding.
But there's no way
I'm gonna let Illrick down.
One day, I'm gonna find a way
to bring him back
and protect that orb
with my life.
Okay, everyone. it's time to
turn in your assignments.
Sammy, there's nothing
in my backpack.
What do you mean?
I mean there's
nothing in my bag!
Tony Caputo
took your stuff!
[ sighs ] that kid
is such a jerk.
Here's my assignment,
Mr. Noonan.
He's got my homework!
And that's not all he's got.
Go ahead.
Try to stop me.
[ whoosh ]
both: no!
[ both scream ]
[ all screaming ]
