JOHNNY: Previously on Endlings...

TABBY: My tooth! ‐ [ice crackling]

Jackpot.

‐ Is it supposed to do that?

JULIA: Think our new friend is angry.

Maybe we can recharge the blasters in the ship!

It's working.

‐ That's not good.

‐ I don't really know what's going on with you and your mom.

‐ No, you don't, so don't pretend to!

Get out!

‐ An old tree fort? ‐ Do you know who built it?

‐ No.

‐ Someone's been holding out on us.

Who's Henry? ‐ None of your business.

‐ We're zeroing in on the fourth specimen.

Is that a police station?

‐ Yes, it is.

[Abiona screams]

[Tabby laughing]

‐ You scream louder than Johnny!

‐ You scared me! ‐ That was the point, elephant lady!

[Abiona chuckles]

‐ Still no luck on the blasters?

‐ Not yet.

‐ Well, no rush now.

Night‐night, Tick.

[soft hissing]

You try the bloody tooth trick?

‐ The bloody tooth trick?

‐ Yeah. I got those trap pieces to show up

when I put one of my teeth on that thing.

ABIONA: Curious.

‐ I feel like you're about to go on a long explanation.

‐ There are no obvious levers or buttons.

Which means the ship must operate in an entirely different way.

What did you do when you put a tooth down?

‐ I put it down... then the shrinky things appeared.

Back there. ‐ And you didn't do anything else?

‐ Nope. ‐ You sure?

‐ I was just thinking how I was gonna find the trap pieces

and then... bang, they appeared.

‐ The alien can somehow read our thoughts.

Maybe the ship can, too.

What are you doing?

‐ Thinking about pie...

Nope. No pie.

After you're done not getting the blasters back,

you may want to check on the alien.

I think it's starting to thaw out.

[liquid gurgling]

[sighs]

‐ What's different?

Bloody tooth.

Maybe it's not enough to just touch it.

Maybe there needs to be a genetic link.

[gurgling, crackling noises]

[Abiona gasps]

Thank you.

Tabby! Tabby!

[creaking noises]

Tabby?

[Tuku trumpeting softly]

Where is she, Tuku?

[Tuku trumpets loudly]

[creaking continues]

Aha! Nice try, Tabby.

[Abiona gasps]

[distant hammering]

‐ Is Mr. Leopold still down there?

What about Johnny?

‐ He's putting Finn to sleep.

Did Abiona figure out how to get the blasters back?

‐ Listen, about yesterday?

I'm sorry I threw my robot model at your face.

‐ It's okay.

‐ And... thank you for trying to talk with me.

‐ Sure.

If you ever need to talk‐‐ ‐ Don't ruin this.

‐ Got it.

TABBY: Kazi, night mode.

KAZI: Activating nighttime settings.

[hammering in distance]

KAZI: Porch lights on.

‐ [creature snarling] KAZI: Barn lights off.

[creature screeching, growling]

[tapping on wood]

JOHNNY: Still too dark?

Even with your night lights?

[sighs] Okay.

But it can't be too bright.

Otherwise we won't be able to see our story.

[sighs] So, which one do you want tonight, Finny?

Again? Really?

Okay, but this is probably why you're afraid of the dark.

Monsters.

"There are hungry monsters under my bed,

growling at me because they haven't been fed."

That's what Harry McGilley said.

His father just smiled and said,

[deep voice] "Ho ho ho, fraidy cat Harry,

monsters are just imaginary."

[creature whirring]

Do you like the voice? ‐ [whirring continues]

I can't do it?

Okay, I thought it worked.

Here we go again.

But Harry McGilley cried out all night,

"There are hungry monsters, I know I'm right!"

So just to prove that Harry was silly...

[door creaks]

You wanna listen, too?

‐ Kazi, dim the lights.

Come on. It's better in the dark.

[creature whirring softly]

JOHNNY: Just to prove that Harry was silly...

‐ [creature screeching] ‐ ...under the bed...

[hammering]

‐ Mr. Leopold? ‐ Not right now, Julia.

‐ Are you okay?

‐ [sighs] I'll be fine.

JULIA: You sure? ‐ [groans]

Yes.

‐ You know...

someone told me that one day

I was gonna get tired of running from my problems,

and that when I did, that he'd be waiting for me.

And he was.

So I just want you to know that I'll be waiting for you, too.

We all will.

‐ That's very kind.

But some problems are better at catching up with you than others.

‐ Where are you going?

‐ Out for a walk.

I just need to get some air.

Abiona is here if you need anything.

‐ When will you be back?

‐ In a little while.

[creature warbling]

[door opens]

[door creaking]

‐ Mr. Leopold?

[locks door]

[creature snarling]

‐ I wanna see it.

‐ [chuckles] Good things come to those who wait.

‐ I've been waiting forever. ‐ [father chuckles]

‐ And... done.

‐ You built all this for me, Dad?

‐ Have a look at this.

The "H" is for you, Henry.

And the heart is me.

'Cause you will always be in my heart.

‐ Thanks, Dad. ‐ [father chuckles]

‐ Now, can we finally go up it? ‐ Sure.

‐ But me first. ‐ [Henry chuckles]

‐ Oh, come on, you rotten kid. ‐ No fair!

[father laughing]

DRIVER: We'll be arriving at the police station momentarily.

‐ Thank you.

[skittering noise]

[wood creaks]

[creature rumbles]

[footsteps approaching]

‐ You're awake!

[creature rumbling]

What?

What is it?

[creature snarling]

JOHNNY: Harry heard a... ‐ Chomp!

‐ [chuckles] ‐ He heard a...

[Tabby slurps]

‐ Slurp! ‐ [Finn chuckles]

‐ He heard a... ‐ Gulp!

‐ He heard a... ‐ [burps]

BOTH: Burp.

JOHNNY: And now little Harry sleeps sound in his bed

'cause there are no monsters, as father said.

And if there are, well, they've been fed.

[Johnny chuckles]

‐ [Julia screams] ‐ Julia?

Stay here, Finn, we'll check it out.

[switch chimes, beeps]

Julia!

‐ Last time I saw her was in the sitting room.

‐ Okay.

[creature rumbling]

[creatures warbling]

‐ The alien!

‐ [Julia screaming]

‐ Julia? ‐ [Julia gasping]

It's sticky!

‐ There's a creature in the house. ‐ Where?

[creature grumbling]

‐ Right there.

[snarling]

‐ Tabby, get out of here! ‐ [creature roaring]

‐ [switch chimes] KAZI: Deactivating kitchen lights.

[snarling]

Whoa, what happened?

‐ [Julia gasps] ‐ The dark.

I think the darkness might hurt it.

‐ Only one way to find out. Kazi, turn off all lights.

KAZI: Deactivating all lights.

[creature snarling]

[creature rumbling]

‐ [groans] It's like glue.

[straining]

‐ Oh, it sounds like it's going upstairs.

‐ Finn! Ugh!

HENRY: Did your dad ever build you a tree fort?

FATHER: Uh, no. ‐ Why not?

‐ Well, he wasn't around much.

‐ But you like making stuff for me, right?

‐ No.

I love making stuff for you. ‐ [Henry chuckles]

‐ Why?

‐ Well, uh, long time ago, I made a decision

that I wanted to grow up

to become the kind of person that I needed when I was your age.

‐ So you'll always love making stuff for me?

‐ Always and forever.

[watch chimes]

[chiming]

‐ Why would they turn all the lights off?

[rustling]

TABBY: Hey, Eersteling!

[creature groaning]

You're it!

What are you waiting for?

[tail rattling]

‐ We think the dark hurts it.

Tabby and I are going to go to the barn and get the blasters,

or at least the trap pieces.

Just stay here in the dark and be quiet, okay?

Or you can come outside with us.

That's what I thought. Okay, we'll be right back.

Where is it? ‐ I lost it in the kitchen.

‐ Okay, let's make this quick.

TABBY: [panting] Your flashlight!

‐ What is going on? ‐ Turn it off!

‐ You need to turn your flashlight off! ‐ Turn the flashlight off!

‐ Turn it off! [gasps]

MR. LEOPOLD: Tabby!

‐ How can I help you?

‐ I need to speak to Officer Mitra.

Or Lopez.

‐ Yeah, they're gone for the day.

‐ All right, then I'll just leave this with you.

A small token of my appreciation.

‐ Well, their desk is, uh, right over there.

Feel free to take it there yourself.

‐ Thank you.

Happy hunting.
