Howdy.

I bet y'all are wonderin' why all these ghosts are moseyin' around

so close to the property line.

It ain't like they're gettin' through it, right?

Well, partner, that's where you're wrong.

See, once in a generation, every 20 years or so,

there's a full moon on Friday the 13th.

When that happens, the magic that confines ghosts to this here haunted hotel

gets a little bit weaker.

And on that night, from sundown to sunrise,

ghosts can go wherever they want.

I'm gonna spend all ten hours starin' at my ex-wife and her new boy toy

through the window of their condo.

Yee-haw.

Wait, the cowboy's ex-wife is alive? When did he die?

2011. He died on Halloween and leaned in.

Why are they stretching?

Some ghosts like to see how far they can get before sunrise,

when we all get ripped back home.

Tonight, I'm makin' it to Syracuse.

I didn't realize every ghost in the hotel would be doing this.

I can take a bath without wearing a bathing suit.

I might hang out here.

You're going to Syracuse.

Sun's almost down. You got the list, right?

Oh, I've got it.

Everything you wanna do on your one night of freedom.

I don't want you roping Esther into a bunch of weird things like,

"Wait in a line, argue with a stranger in traffic,

see a car get crushed at the dump."

- This is what you wanna do tonight? - It's all things I can't do at the hotel.

I stayed up all last night plotting the route that'll let us see everything.

You stayed up all last night?

Yeah, I'm super tired, but I'm more super excited.

Ben, it's not safe to ride with a ghost in your basket.

- I know. I... I already told Randy that. - Tonight's not about safety.

It's about two buds out on the town for one night only,

becoming legends at the big school dance.

It's actually not even one of the big dances.

It will be when we're done with it.

By the time this night's over, you're gonna be king of the school,

just like I was in the '80s.

Okie doke. Hey, why do you think a bike basket counts as floor for ghosts?

The sun's daily execution begins.

You can just say it's setting.

Five, four,

three, two...

Let's do this!

You gotta wait for one.

Candles?

Candles!

Now let's do this!

Yeah, I'm taking a bath.

Uh-oh, is it just me

or did my old school just get a little bit Randy?

Do kids still trap cats in the stairwell?

There's a no animal policy.

Hey, there was back in my day, too,

but that didn't stop this animal from drilling a peephole

into the girls' locker room.

You were a victim of your time.

Are you sure there's not a memorial plaque for me?

I was murdered during the school year.

Maybe you could make it less obvious you're a ghost.

Ben, relax. I'm always super careful about that sort of thing.

Okay, okay, let's figure out the game plan.

We've only got a few hours to make you a legend.

I get to be a legend? I thought I was just gonna be a king.

You're gonna be both!

Dude, I'll be right back.

Zeffanator, long time no eye contact.

Happy to help.

Whoa! We gotta be friends with him.

Zeff? No, no, no. He's never been that interested in me.

Then we make him interested.

Cool kids are kingmakers. I'm gonna start a rumor that you drove us here.

But I'm not old enough to drive.

Exactly.

This is what you miss the most?

Well, maybe not the most,

but if we came later, the store'd be closed,

and we'd miss standing in a line with living people in it.

Put down that thing that separates our things from the next guy's.

This is always my first stop too. It just feels so normal.

- Wait, are you... - Bridget.

Dead.

By the way, your hip is inside the conveyor belt.

Nathan. Also, your elbow is inside the candy rack.

Uncle Nathan, making friends is not on our list.

- Eh, lists were made to be broken. - Next!

Oh, just enjoying the line. We're not buying anything.

Yeah, we are. Mama needs go-go juice.

Well, enjoy your night, Bridget. Haunt well.

You too.

Ah. Ha!

I was born not to sleep. Let's go!

- Next! - Oh, I'm not buying anything either.

Did your dad work here 30 years ago?

Okay, I've got my trashy magazine,

sour candy, candles that aren't actually part of a guy,

and a completely empty hotel.

Kathy, you are ready for this bathy.

Damn it, Abaddon!

I'm sick.

So? You like being sick. You brag about it every time--

But once I switched to ankle socks, it was smooth sailing.

This is the guy I told you about.

Guilty as charged.

Awesome. I've never met a fugitive before.

- Sorry, what? - Oh, nothing.

I told him how you stole a car and drove it into the lake.

- Now the cops are looking for you. - I love that!

What? Why would you tell them that?

- The best part is where he was driving. - Doesn't even matter.

- To a date with a teacher. - Oh God.

Wait, really?

Oh, I think Randy has bad information.

Yeah, the information that this teacher wants you bad.

And Ben is into it.

It doesn't matter if he's into it. It's illegal.

No, it's cool. They both like it. She buys him lots of gifts.

She's grooming him?

It's not just hair stuff. She also gave him a boom box.

I returned all of it. We're breaking up tonight. Bye.

Did you see their faces? They think you're the man!

Look, I love help in a social situation,

but what society thinks is cool has changed a lot since the '80s.

Let's just go home.

Go home? The night is young, Ben.

Young enough to trick into a kiss.

See, that I feel was never an expression.

Dude, bad news. The cool kids are leaving.

Well, looks like my next cup of punch is going in my mouth.

Forget the punch! Where the cool kids go, we go.

This dance is dead!

Yeah!

Okay, next up, we've got the karaoke bar you got banned from twice.

First with no mustache, and then with a mustache.

To stay on schedule, we've only got six minutes here,

so no encores.

Uncle Nathan?

Hey, it's you!

Hey, it's you.

- Hey, Uncle Nathan! Karaoke bar? - Ah, we can spare a minute.

- We only have six! - I'll sing a shorter song.

I've never seen you around the hotel. Are you with the Graveyard Gang?

Oh, I'm not from the hotel. I'm from the lighthouse by the lake.

Seriously? I didn't know there were other ghosts in town.

Oh, yeah. I mean, it's mostly the hotel,

but there's the paper mill, my lighthouse, that old covered bridge that exploded...

We're burning moonlight here!

Sorry. Lots to do tonight.

- First night out since you died? - How can you tell?

It's during the first one you feel the need to do everything.

I'm on my fourth.

Then you must know how frustrating it would be

if someone you were never gonna see again swooped in on your first night out

and grounded it to a friggin' halt!

This is my niece. She's just tired.

Tired? Could a tired person do this?

You know, if you don't have plans, you can come with us.

I mean, if you want to.

I'd like to keep talking, but maybe you hate talking.

No, talking sounds nice.

So, we're done wasting time? Great.

Hope it was worth missing karaoke. Let's move, people!

Okay, these should fit. They were Ben's when he was your body's age.

My shivers diminish. Thank you.

What's going on?

You never thank me,

and I've pulled your hand out of the garbage disposal five times.

I'm not sure. Ever since all the ghosts left, I felt, uh, relief.

As if a thousand knives were pulled out of my body,

but in a good way.

So being around ghosts hurts you? Is that why you're annoying all the time?

You think I'm annoying?

No! I'm sorry.

I'm not used to treating you like an actual boy.

I think you're a very special guy.

You know, whenever Ben was sick, we'd watch cartoons all day.

Can we watch cartoons?

That actually sounds nice.

Dude, bike faster!

- If I do, I'll catch up with them. - That's the point!

Can't the point be quiet observation? Gah!

Sup, squad?

A guy with a candle on his head just ran through this wall.

Are you following us?

No, no. We're following a different guy.

So, what's the plan for the night?

Roller rink? Milkshake bar? You need anyone to bring the booze?

Wait, you can get alcohol?

Oh, I can't, but my man Ben here can. He is a heavy drinker.

Oh, just socially. Yeah, never alone.

Yeah, okay. We'll be at the campsite by the lake.

We'll see you there, my man!

You're welcome.

Randy, you strongly implied that I'm an alcoholic!

And scored us an invite to their exclusive hang.

Yeah, by saying we'll bring alcohol!

Cool, right? Now come on.

Bridget, this one likes me.

I mean, he's not swimming away in terror like the others.

So, you a big fish guy?

I'm a big fish swimming around me guy. Come on, get your head in here.

Did you have pets when you were alive?

A dog and a rabbit,

which got eaten by the dog, which turned out to be half wolf.

Pet laws were a little bit different in the 1890s.

- What about you? - Nah, no pets for me.

Seriously? No pets ever? Why not?

Ah, I never found the right one.

Okay, now I have a different question. Do you ever drop the cheerful act?

What cheerful act?

"Oh, I'm Nathan. I'm happy all the time. Who wants to ride a Ferris wheel?"

Uh, I am happy all the time.

And I would love to ride a Ferris wheel.

Okay, sure, I'm not happy all the time. But what ghost is?

Fine, I get sad sometimes. But it's not a big deal.

I was also pretty depressed when I was alive.

I worried if I got a pet, it would be disappointed I was its owner and run away.

How would you feel if your first pet was a ferret?

How would you feel about me naming him Garrett?

You've got three minutes.

- Esther, what are you doing? - Letting you guys in the pet store.

We're already in the pet store. We're ghosts.

I may be more tired than I thought.

- Hey, who's down there? - Ooh, time to leave.

Howdy.

Yep, it's chip o'clock, you know.

Yeah, we should go.

The cashier saw my face. I think he can tell we're about to do crimes.

It's never a crime to follow your heart.

Wait for my signal, then grab the good stuff.

What's the signal?

Also, what is the good stuff?

I had a dry red wine once at Christmas, and I did not care for it.

Hands up, dude! This is a haunting!

Oh, you're getting double haunted for that.

What's your problem, dude?

Signal!

Not again!

- Did you get it? - No, I didn't get it.

I got them.

Now this is a guy who's gonna rule the school.

Not how I would have done it.

Oh, I'm gonna chomp you so good.

I'm the fastest rabbit in town!

That rabbit is very clever.

- Look out! - It's crazy!

Did you see his face? "Oh no, I killed five people!"

Hey, Esther, we're back. What's next?

Esther?

Get away, ghost.

She's been up for two days.

Let's just walk around the park. My lighthouse doesn't have trees.

So, what's your lighthouse like?

It's okay. Small.

It's automated now, so the living don't come around, which gets lonely.

But there's two other ghosts.

One is the first lighthouse keeper,

and one is a guy from the '50s who thought he could swim, but couldn't.

They hate each other, and they both think they're dating me.

Oh, and... and are you...

No.

I'm single.

But he never came back, and I died of a broken heart.

- Seriously? - Ah, no.

I slipped on a rock. Not his fault. How'd you die?

Oh, uh...

- Well, it's kind of a sad story. - Oh, okay.

Can I hear it?

And we have enough people for a ghost baseball team.

Problem is, no one can find a ghost baseball.

Come on! You don't miss mosquito bites.

I like the itch.

What is it?

I just can't believe I met someone I like.

Once the sun rises, I won't see her again for decades.

I know. But the way I think about it,

we're making a memory that'll help us get through those years.

You know, we only have a few hours left together.

Our first kiss can't wait for the second date.

Well, actually, if each place we've gone to has been a date,

that makes this our fifth date.

What? We should have kissed at least three dates ago.

Oh, I fell asleep!

And you didn't wake me?

What's wrong with you people? Come on!

I mean, yeah, he cheated.

But only so my mom would break up with him.

Sup, dorks? Your heroes have arrived.

Oh, hey. You actually came.

And you're gonna be pretty happy that we did. Anyone thirsty?

These are non-alcoholic.

- What's that now? - Guys, are we gonna read labels or drink?

My dad's new place only has one bed, so I get to sleep in a recliner.

Yeah.

We gotta step this up.

Or we cut our losses.

Maybe I'm not meant to rule this school. Maybe I'm a squire. There's honor in that.

Ben, I didn't cut a single loss my entire life.

I'm sure as hell not starting now that I'm dead.

You guys hear about Ben's secret makeout spot?

You have a makeout spot?

Oh, no.

I mean, it started as a conversation spot. And then, you know how ladies be.

I wanna see this spot.

What?

I am the fastest rabbit in town.

I'm gonna chomp you so good.

Get over here.

Five minutes.

Hurry... up.

I can't believe they don't crush cars at night.

That's the coolest time to do it.

Well, why don't you sit down? Dinner's almost ready.

Oh, didn't realize I was in our house.

You just walked through the front door by that broken sink.

Oh, I see it now. Main hallway through these old tires.

Kitchen overlooking the trash compactor.

I'm thinking three bed, two bath.

Mm, one for us. One for Garrett. One for the girls.

- The girls? - I always wanted girls.

Right, the girls.

They share a room and they fight all the time.

But they get scared if they have to sleep alone.

And they need to sleep 'cause they have school tomorrow.

So I think I'm... I'm gonna go.

Oh, okay. What's next?

No, I mean alone. Wi... With Esther.

Esther, drink another soda.

Wait, you're leaving? Is this 'cause I said "tomorrow?"

Look, this was really nice.

But there's only an hour before sunrise. And--

And we need to use it.

Nathan, this is the kind of night I've been wishing to have for 100 years.

It's a good thing.

I know it is.

But if I stay, it's gonna hurt too much when it ends.

Yeah, but it's worth it.

Yeah, I'm... I'm sorry. It was really, really nice to meet you.

Esther!

- Just up ahead. - It's just up ahead.

You are gonna love this... place.

Huh.

It wasn't a burned-down shack the last time I was kissing here.

Who exactly were you kissing here?

Just all of your moms. Ha! Anyway, the cool stuff is inside.

Fine. But if it's not cool,

you have to help my dad paint his new place.

That sounds more than fair, Zeff.

What are you doing?

Why did we drag the cool kids through the woods

to drink non-alcoholic beer in a shack that looks like it'll collapse?

First off, you picked the beer.

A lot of dead squirrels in here.

Everything that's happened tonight has made my reputation worse.

And I was just settling into a nice, unnoticed groove.

Ben, you don't become king of the school by settling.

I don't wanna be king! I don't even know what that means!

The shack is cool, and the teens are lucky to be in it!

Where'd the floor go?

I thought that could happen.

We're a bit behind.

Not gonna point fingers, but we've got time for one more thing.

You can either jump off the tower because it's the closest you'll get to skydiving,

or you can go to the bank

and try to get caught on camera as a bank robber to get in the paper.

Wait, where's Bridget?

She's gone. I told her I wanted to finish the night alone.

You sent her away? Are you insane?

Esther, it doesn't matter.

In a few minutes, the night'll be over. I'll probably never see her again.

So what? We were never gonna get to everything on your list.

Does that mean we shouldn't have tried?

Or was it worth it for the things you did get to do?

I don't even know where she is.

So we'll find her. Come on.

Look at how this fella sleeps.

Covers up to his neck like a little baby.

He don't deserve you, Monica!

Ben!

Bathing suit guy!

We're gonna die in here!

Totally on it. No worries at all.

Bathing suit guy? I have told him a million times I'm Big Bad Randy.

Randy, I know for you this is one crazy night to relive your glory days,

but I have to see these people at school tomorrow!

At least you get to go to school.

And I am not reliving my glory days.

Because I was never king of the school. I was never in the kissing shack.

I was always on the outside,

spying on the kissing through a hole I drilled.

Again, it was a different time.

The point is you still have a shot at greatness.

I missed mine. And I didn't even get a memorial plaque.

No one remembers me.

I know a way these teens might.

And now we put in the chocolate chips.

- How many? - As many as you want. I won't tell.

What's wrong?

I just noticed the time.

It'll be sunrise when the cookies are done baking.

- The ghosts will be back. - Oh.

Do you think they'll want cookies too?

Yeah. Let's make them cookies too.

Hey, you guys good?

Obviously no!

Don't worry. Randy and I found a tree you can use as a ladder.

This was weird, so we're gonna leave. Please don't follow us.

Wait, I just saw a cat down there!

What? I'm going in.

Randy, that's suicide! This shack could collapse any minute!

The cat would do the same for me!

Yeah, I didn't see a cat down there.

I have to try, Zeff!

It's coming down! Everyone, get back!

Oh my God!

Oh God! The beams!

It's a pain no normal man could bear!

By the way, I found the cat! I let it out the back. He's gonna be fine.

My name was

Randy.

I'm calling 911!

No! Uh, I just mean it's pretty obvious he couldn't survive that.

I'd be surprised if they ever found his body.

The point is, our dear friend Randy died a hero,

and we'll remember him that way forever.

- Weird kid. - A good kid.

- He's our hero. - For Randy.

Bridget!

Bridget!

I can't find her.

Me neither. She could be anywhere. What does she like?

Uh, I don't know. Uh, she likes trees.

She likes trees? They're everywhere!

Does she also like roads? The sky?

- I'm so tired! - Bridget!

Nathan?

I'm sorry I left.

I'm... I'm glad you came back. We don't have long.

There's so much I wanna say, but I don't know what to say with just one minute.

Less than a minute now that I said all that.

- A kiss could be good. - Yeah, okay.

Wait.

Make it good enough to keep us going for 20 years.

That's a lot of pressure for one ki--

Good or bad?

A shooting star?

No. It's a ghost.

It's starting.

Does it hurt?

Yeah.

But it's worth it.

Syracuse, baby!

Welcome back, everyone. Abaddon and I made cookies you can look at.

Yes, with extra, extra chocolate chips. Are they still too hot to eat?

Oh, I think we can risk eating one.

I want the whole tray or nothing!

That was worth no bath.

Won't you come see about me

I'll be alone, dancing You know it, baby

Tell me your troubles and doubts

Giving everything inside and out

And love's strange So real in the dark

Think of the tender things That we were looking on

Slow change may pull us apart

When the light Gets into your heart, baby

You okay?

Yeah, I'm good.

Don't you

Forget about me

Don't, don't, don't, don't

Don't, don't, don't, don't
