[scatting]

What's with the robe? Have we given up?

[chuckles softly]

Do you know how hard it is to put deodorant under these?

We didn't have deodorant back in my day.

Smelling bad was just part of the charm.

All my fritzing has gotten worse.

It's happening every day now.

What if I don't make it to the end of the semester?

What if I can't open for Millie Eyelash's concert?

[man clears throat]

Sorry to interrupt.

[both screaming]

And an [screaming]

to you too.

I think I might have a way to fix your fritzing.

[? Ominous music playing]

[singing] ? Slay! ? -? S-L-A-Y ?

? Stepping out into the light ?

? I have never felt so alive ?

? Yeah, yeah, yeah ?

? S-L-A-Y ?

? Watch me shine, shine, shine ?

? Slay! ?

So you're the reason why there are fingerprints inside of my mirror.

My bad.

You're making it worse.

Sorry.

I'm Lucien Constantine.

I'm from a small Transylvanian village in Western Moldavia.

You're from We-Mo?

I used to go to the Scare Fair every summer.

Really? Uh, my family ran the Zombie Dog Show.

Shut your fangs!

That's my favorite event.

Vee, focus! As great as it is to meet someone from back home,

what's a vampire doing in my mirror?

That's on me. A few years ago,

a Van Helsing trapped me in this prison.

That's horrible.

- Why? - For leaving Transylvania.

You know how Van Helsings have it out for us.

I just wanted to see the world.

[gasps] Me too.

It's been awful being stuck in here.

I haven't seen Paranormal Matchmaker in years.

Thank darkness your wizard friend weakened the mirror

and allowed me to see you.

I should've known better than to shop at a Van Helsing yard sale.

You always come home with a cursed mirror.

Vee, you're the first vampire I've seen in, like, forever.

You've gotten so weak being separated from our kind.

That's exactly what your doctor said causes your fritzing.

You said you could fix me. Was that true?

Yeah. Just being near another vampire can help both of us.

Let's try something.

[warbling]

[? Ominous music playing]

[? Foreboding music playing]

[electricity buzzing]

[gasps]

Whoa! Thank you.

And now I can wear deodorant again.

Not that I ever stopped.

Anyway...

We gotta figure out a way to get you out of there.

[school bell ringing]

Oh! Vee, you need to get to class.

[sighs] I'll be back as soon as I can.

Uh, wait.

Can you keep my vampire identity a secret?

Oh, yeah, I'm great at keeping secrets.

[coughs]

I'm defenseless in here, and there are many threats.

The council, Van Helsing, angry villagers...

Oh, we call them humans now.

Nice rebrand.

Until our shadows meet again.

[? Upbeat music playing]

You made it! And no...

Nope. All gone.

- How did you fix it? - I...

It just went away. [Chuckles nervously]

I hope Ms. Rawls didn't notice I'm late.

Mmm, you're fine.

We're doing selections from Galactic Journey: The Musical for our final.

A song and a scene.

I'm gonna direct you and Elijah.

We get to perform in the amphitheater,

and I've chosen you two to be my star couple

in the big romantic scene.

You did? Us?

Romantic? Us?

You're space travelers with galaxy-sized crushes on each other.

[clears throat]

Sorry. Forgot I had a throat.

And your planets have been at war for millennia.

Kind of like your families.

Can't relate to that.

So this scene is about tension

and caring for somebody so much,

you'd pilot a stolen star cruiser

through a supernova just to say "'Sup, girl?"

This is going to be fun. High fives.

[Elijah chuckles nervously]

Elijah, why is your hand so wet?

Uh, my hands just won't stop sweating.

Is it hot in here? I think it's hot.

- It's very hot! - Mmm-hmm.

[school bell ringing]

Rehearsal at 4:00.

Bring the tension!

Uh, do you want to hang out, run lines or something?

Maybe I could take you for ice cream, 'cause you're so hot...

I mean, you said you were hot.

I didn't say you were hot. No, I...

I mean, I don't think you're not hot.

Anyway, what were we talking about?

Yeah, I would love to get ice cream...

Oh, plague rat!

I can't.

I have to go help my... friend.

But I promise we can get ice cream soon.

[Elijah] Oh, okay.

Ugh, they're like water fountains.

[? Upbeat music playing]

Ah, Britney, there you are.

According to my records, you haven't done

any of your mandatory dining hall shifts this year.

Ah, shoot!

I have a doctor's note from my manicurist.

I actually can't use my hands for the next 72 hours.

Ooh, gorgeous.

Get your gloves, Fancy Hands!

Oh, Britney in a hairnet? [Chuckles]

If I could screenshot reality, that would be my lock screen.

[laughs] What are you laughing at, chuckles?

I haven't seen you do your dining hall shifts either.

What? I... Uh, ah! Oh...

Yes, those are all of the vowels.

You better hairnet up and get to mopping.

Ugh

[camera shutter clicks] Lock screen.

[? Upbeat music playing]

I don't know, Demi.

I can't let a fellow vampire stay stuck in a mirror prison,

especially if he got jailed just for being a vampire.

I hear you.

But if he figures out Elijah is a Van Helsing...

As long as they don't find out the truth about each other, it'll be fine.

In fact, I bet they'll be best friends.

Probably. Guys with great hair tend to get along.

Uh-huh.

[Lucien snoring]

The sun awakens!

Uh, sorry. [Sighs]

This "being awake during the day" thing is a challenge.

I'm a little bat-lagged.

[? Tense music playing]

[whimpers] Uh-oh!

I'm fanging out all over the place.

I hate to see a vampire suffer.

If I could get out of here, I could put an end to that fritzing.

Is there any way to let you out?

Just one. A Blood Stone from Transylvania.

But those only exist in the hearts of gargoyles.

[gasps] Stoney!

[? Ominous music playing]

You have a Blood Stone?

There's a slot on the top of the mirror.

Place the Blood Stone there until it clicks.

[? Ominous music playing]

[distorted echoes]

[? Foreboding music playing]

Ah, attic dust and cobwebs.

[inhales] Fresh air at last.

You've helped me, and now I'm gonna help you.

[? Eerie music playing]

[energy pulsing]

I feel like me again.

There's one way to be sure.

[wings flapping]

[Vee] I'm back, baby.

I feel great.

Now that you're free, will you go back?

I don't know.

Going back to Transylvania would feel like giving up on a dream.

I know what you mean.

I was almost gonna miss performing at a Millie Eyelash Concert.

Oh, bats! I have to go meet my friends for lunch.

I hate to be that ghost,

but Lucien, you need to stay in the attic

until we come up with a good cover story.

I'll bring you some food.

They don't have maggot casserole.

But if you close your eyes, the spaghetti tastes like worms.

[? Cheerful music playing]

[sighs]

Set free at a school of so many weak-minded humans to control.

This Millie Eyelash concert should be fun.

[? Ominous music playing]

[? Upbeat music playing]

Ooh!

I heard Elijah and Vee are doing a scene together,

and are gonna be all like...

[whimpering] The water fountains are flowing again.

Hey, stop creeping people out and help me.

What is Lucien doing here?

Who is that?

That's my new friend.

So this is the friend that's better than ice cream.

Cool. Cool.

Hey, I'm Lucien, the new exchange student.

I'm Sophie.

Nice to meet you, handsome stranger.

Hi, I'm... Sue.

I want to introduce you to my better-looking twin sister, Britney.

[chuckles] BRB!

Will you excuse us?

[chuckles, sighs]

You were supposed to stay upstairs.

Yeah. We can't let the dean see you.

I got it all under control.

Mind control, that is.

Well, there's my favorite exchange student.

So tell me, how does Wilson compare to Mirroria?

[both] Mirroria?

There's no comparison. Wilson wins.

But that could be because of its dean.

[gasps] Oh, me? Oh, no, no, no.

Yes. [Stuttering]

Wait. Does that mean you might stay permanently?

'Cause then my fritzing would end and I could stay.

Well, being around you is definitely helping my powers, too.

I can at least stay through the concert.

I've always wanted to try a mosh pit.

Does it taste good?

I had the same question when I got here.

No...

And hot dog is not what you think.

I can't wait to show you how great Wilson Hall is.

Oh, Lucien!

[breathing heavily]

My ugly twin sister told me you were looking for me.

Where'd he go?

I think he's behind that mop you need to be pushing.

[? Upbeat music playing]

Your orbit forever altered mine.

Get closer. You're supposed to like each other.

From Prince Vexor's line.

- Go! - Uh...

Captain, your... your ship is leaving.

He takes her hand... [stutters]

Oops! Sorry, wasn't supposed to say that part.

[both laugh]

- Lock it up. - [both clear throat]

The Vexorians need you.

And my crew needs me.

Uh, no.

We may be from different galaxies, Captain,

but our stars will still align if you follow your heart.

Hold!

Love the choices, great choices.

About those choices...

This moment launches us into the duet.

It's not about the words.

- It's about... - Sub text.

Yes, and sorry, but this is a closed rehearsal,

even for hot people.

Actually, I invited him.

Really?

[clicks tongue] Cool. Cool.

I don't mean to interrupt, but I think what's missing here is the tension.

Thank you.

You can stay.

Would you mind if I did a quick read?

That okay?

Uh, yeah. Why not? I mean, I've... I've already got the part.

It's not a competition, is it?

[mouthing]

Vee, from your last line, and... action!

The Vexorians need you.

And my crew needs me.

No.

We may be from different galaxies, Captain,

but our stars will still align if you follow your heart.

Scene!

Hey, the scene wasn't over yet.

Yeah, it wasn't over yet.

- I got it from here. - Yeah, he's got it from here.

- Vee, take five. - Yeah, Vee, take five!

What is happening?

[sighs]

I don't get it. The script is perfect.

The directing is awesome.

What else could be the problem?

Sophie? A word.

Look, I can't explain it, but there's just something off about Lucien.

The vibes are not vibing.

I don't care about his vibes.

I care about the Prince Vexor and my theater grade.

Well, he messed up my flow.

Newsflash. The only thing flowing was your hands sweat.

[Elijah] That's rude, but true.

Look, I'm getting a hint of what may or may not be jealousy.

[scoffs] You think I'm jealous of Garbage-ay Chalamet?

[laughs] I'm taking a five.

[scoffs]

[? Ominous music playing]

There you are.

You feeling okay?

Yeah. I haven't fritzed all week, ever since Lucien got here.

It's just... [sighs]

I wish I could talk to Sophie about this,

but I promised Lucien I wouldn't.

Hey, what am I, chopped spiders?

Just pretend I'm Sophie.

It's about boys.

Ooh, juicy.

Come on. Dish, bestie.

Okay.

I really like Elijah.

[scoffs] Obvs!

But when Lucien's around, I'm back to my vampire self,

and it feels good to help another vampire.

So what's the problem?

He and Elijah have been butting heads.

Not to mention, vampires and Van Helsings are mortal enemies,

which is making me feel like I have to choose between them.

But if you don't choose Lucien,

then you'd have to go home.

And I couldn't be with Elijah at all.

So you want this new cute boy to stay here

so you can get closer to the other cute boy?

Man.

Sophie's job is hard.

You're a mess.

But it's not just that.

Being at Wilson is my dream.

And Lucien can make that come true.

I just wish it wasn't all so complicated.

[imitates Sophie] Well... wicka, wicka.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

- Please stop! - Okay.

[in normal voice] But seriously, and this is coming from Demi,

you need to figure out what it is you really want.

Just listen to your undead heart.

Thanks, Demi Sophie.

[chuckles]

[sighs] Welcome to Chili Night.

One scoop or two?

You know, manual labor has taught me a lot,

mainly that I like being rich.

Hey, is this seat taken?

Elijah, you look done.

So, what are we having tonight?

Well, we were having fun.

Uh, we're having chili.

It's Elijah's favorite. Maybe you'll like it, too?

Then you'll have something in common.

Actually, I prefer French cooking.

Mmm-hmm. Most pretentious people do.

But if this meat soup is what you're into...

Waiter, a chili refill-y, please.

Oh, he thinks he's a rapper now.

[mimics] "A chili refill-y, please."

[gasps] Sorry.

All good. [Laughs]

It's not like they're one of a kind or anything.

Excuse me.

Wait till you find out about cargo pants.

So washable.

Finally, it feels like that dude is always around.

Yeah, I gotta admit, Vee.

It feels like we never get any alone time with you.

And Lucien's kind of pushy.

I don't know if we'd like him if he wasn't good looking.

Lucien's a nice guy.

You just don't know him yet.

He's an outsider like me. We get each other.

But we're your best friends.

We want to hang out with you, just us before you go.

I know, but I may not have to...

You know what? [Chuckles nervously] You're right.

I want to spend more time with you guys too.

I'll talk to Lucien. I'm sure he'll understand.

[? Foreboding music playing]

Hey, Lucien.

Oh, I'm glad you're here.

I noticed the campus has a clock tower.

Down for a bat hang?

Can I get a sun check? Don't take this wrong.

But I kind of need to make more time for my friends.

I thought you and I were cool.

We are. It's just Sophie and Elijah are...

Humans. Come on, Vee. Humans never like us.

That's not true.

Isn't it?

But I guess you'll need to find out the hard way.

If you'd rather spend your time with them, then I'm out.

[? Tense music playing]

[indistinct chatter]

Where have you been? Our performance starts in five minutes.

[shrieking]

Why are you talking bat?

[shrieking continues]

Oh, no. Are you fritzing again?

This is bad.

[sighs] Think, Sophie.

What would Oscar-nominee Greta Gerwig do?

Hey! Surprised to see me?

I couldn't miss your big performance.

[shrieking]

Oh! Fritzing again.

Here.

[mild pulsing]

[gasps]

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Vampires always help other vampires.

I've been looking for you for days. Where have you been?

Giving you the space you asked for.

But as you can see, when we're together, your fritzing doesn't happen.

Vee, I'm the only one who understands you.

You need me.

[Sophie] Vee, we need you.

I gotta go.

Break a wing. I know you'll be great.

Well?

[sighs] Better.

Oh, thank Greta.

Remember, breathe.

Acting is listening.

And when you talk about the death of the Mother Star, cheat out!

[Vee sighs]

Can I help?

Hey, I know things have been complicated lately,

but it's just you and me.

We got this, right?

[chuckles]

Yeah, we do.

We're up.

[? Soft tense music playing]

We may be from different galaxies, Captain,

but our stars will still align if you follow your heart.

[? Romantic music playing]

? You and me ?

? We've been through eternity ?

? And all I've become I see ?

? Is in your reflection ?

? I know you will ?

? Know secrets we wouldn't tell ?

? But somehow you cast a spell that makes a connection ?

? Maybe, just maybe this weird little spark ?

? May light our way out of the cold and the dark ?

? I don't wanna be chill ?

? I don't wanna pretend ?

? To pretend that I don't like you a lot ?

? Like as more than just a friend ?

? I don't wanna be chill ?

? No, I wanna just be true ?

? 'Cause maybe all I'm saying is ?

? I'm falling ?

? For you ?

? Maybe it's nothing ?

? Or maybe it's real ?

? Maybe we say it ?

? Or never reveal ?

? I don't wanna be chill ?

? I don't want another star ?

? I don't wanna act like everything's cool ?

? And like I don't have a heart ?

? I don't wanna stand still ?

? No, I wanna just be true ?

? 'Cause all I'm kinda saying is ?

? All I think I'm saying is ?

? All I keep replaying is ?

? Maybe I'm falling ?

? For you ?

[shrieks]

- [applause] - [woman] Bravo!

- [Sophie screams] - Bravo!

Vee, there's something I've been wanting to say.

- OMG! - [Elijah] I...

Oh, hey!

Thank you. Thank you.

[? Upbeat music playing]

[Elijah] Thank you.

I may need to do something about this Prince of Vexor...

[? foreboding music playing]

I can't believe I was so close to saying it

before being interrupted by my director.

Sorry.

I've got a new plan.

I'm gonna text Vee so we can meet up,

and I can finally tell her I like her.

Thank you. Or else I'm gonna do it,

because I can't take any more of this slow burn.

Thanks for your help, director.

Come on. You know I'm your wicka, wicka wing girl.

[? Upbeat music playing]

[mouths] Okay.

Hello.

Whoa!

- How long have you... - Long enough.

From this moment on, you will stay away from Vee.

You're a vampire.

And you're a Van Helsing.

That's right. You can't mind control me.

Believe me, I know all about your vampire hunting family.

I had a feeling you were bad news.

Oh, I'm not just bad.

I'm the evil your mother warned you about.

[surging]

[? Foreboding music playing]

I can't believe I used to be scared of these.

[sighs]

Vanquinium.

Now that, I'm scared of.

[knocking at door]

Elijah.

[exclaims]

May I come in?

Enter, welcome guest.

I've been thinking, and I've decided to stay at Wilson.

If you still want me to.

Really?

Yes, of course I do.

But I want you and Elijah to be friends.

He's very important to me.

Uh, don't worry.

Elijah and I came to... an understanding.

[Elijah] Lucien, let me out!

- [loud thumping] - What is this place?

[loud thumping continues]

Let me out of here!

Can someone hear me?

- [distant roar] - [whimpers]

[eerie howling]

Uh-oh.

Something heard me.

[? Eerie music playing]

[whimpering]

Seriously, someone let me out of here,

or at least tell me where the bathroom is.

[whimpering]

[? Closing theme music playing]
