Then go... fetch!

( monster‐case playing )

Fetch'll have to wait.

We've got a monster to watch!

( stops playing )

All right! We're watching Hugo and Fig!

Yes!

( honks )

‐ Whoo‐whoo! ‐ Let's go!

Roy: Here we are, the Ooga house.

( gasps ) Esme and Roy are here!

( Hugo toots )

‐ Hugo! ‐ Hey, buddy!

They're here! They're here!

( all laughing )

Don't you just love monsters?

Thanks for coming, monster‐sitters.

I'm off to help Grammy Swoozle clean her attic.

But I'll be back soon. ( laughs ) Bye, guys!

‐ Have fun! ‐ Bye, Dad!

Love you!

So, what's all this?

I set up my very own arts and crafts store!

I call it... ( toots fanfare )

‐ Hugo's Arts and Crafts Store! ‐ Good name!

Over here you'll find the crayons,

over here is the paint,

and over here are the googly eyes.

At Hugo's Arts and Crafts Store,

we make sure they're extra googly.

Wow, Hugo! Your shop looks amazing!

And what a great selection!

Just look at this crayon.

So yellow and perfectly, uh... worn in!

Wait a minute!

Do you wanna help me with my store?

‐ Sure. ‐ We'd love to!

Great! Esme, you can tell everyone

all about my shop.

I'm on it. ( whistles )

Come one, come all,

to the greatest art supply shop in Monsterdale!

Perfect! And Roy,

once people decide what they want,

you can put everything in a bag for them.

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!

I'm great at putting things in bags! See?

‐ ( Fig laughs ) ‐ How about you, Figgles? Do you want to help?

Fig help!

Great. Let's see.

Oh! You can be my official crayon organizer.

Your job is to make sure all the crayons

‐ are nice and neat. ‐ OK!

And I'll be the boss.

( tooting fanfare )

This is gonna be the best arts and crafts store

this block has ever seen!

This crayon go here,

and this crayon go here.

Oopsies!

Ooh‐hoo‐hoo! A rock.

Ooh! Another rock! And another!

Open this bag, and open this bag...

Keep up the good work, everybody!

Uh, Fig, why are you putting rocks on the table?

Fig helping. Fig sell rocks.

See? There's this rock,

and this rock‐‐

( gasps ) Pretty rock.

Oh, no, no, no, Figgles.

We don't sell rocks at Hugo's Arts and Crafts Store.

We only have arts... and crafts.

And bags! Who wants a bag?

Nobody? OK.

( both giggling )

But Fig love rocks.

Sorry, Fig.

There's just no room for rocks in my store.

Oh. OK.

Fig put rocks over here.

Thanks, Figgles.

I think you'll have much more fun

if you just stick to organizing crayons.

Hugo: Huh?

Look, Hugo.

Fig doing rock shop!

Fig, you're making an entire shop for rocks?

Uh‐huh.

Poor Fig doesn't know anything

about running a store.

Nobody's gonna want rocks.

I don't know, Hugo. I like rocks.

Me too!

Especially in a bag.

‐ Hugo want rock? ‐ Sure, Fig.

I'll be your first customer.

I might be her only customer.

Let's see.

I'll take that one.

That a good rock.

Thanks, Fig.

Now I gotta get back to running my own store.

But good luck!

And if you ever want your old job back,

it's not too late!

Thanks for shopping!

A little this way. A little that way.

Perfect.

Oh, hey, Hugo. Nice rock!

Thanks. But Fig's going to be so disappointed

when she finds out that nobody else wants rocks.

I mean, they're rocks.

That monster seems pretty interested.

Rock for you!

Thanks, Fig. ( gasps ) I love it!

‐ ( lady humming ) ‐ ( Hugo gasps )

What?! Fig got a customer?

Before me?

Why didn't she shop at my store?

Pardon me, Mrs. Monster,

but did you notice my arts and crafts store?

It's got every art supply you need!

Oh, that sounds lovely,

but I'm up to my eyeballs in art supplies.

Thanks anyway.

( sighs ) She didn't need any arts!

Or crafts!

Don't worry, Hugo.

I bet the next monster who comes along

will need lots of art supplies.

Whoa! Cool rocks, little Figgles!

What?!

Fig has another customer?!

Norm want this rock, this rock, or this rock?

I'll take... all of 'em!

Yay!

Thanks for the neat rocks, Fig!

‐ See ya later! ‐ Bye!

Hi, Norm, could I interest you in any art supplies?

Maybe a well‐sharpened crayon?

Or some super‐sticky glue?

Aw, man! That's so nice!

But I just stocked up on art supplies.

Plus, my hands are full.

Maybe next time!

I can't believe it!

( tooting )

I'm losing customers... to rocks!

( tooting )

Fig is putting me out of business!

( tooting )

And I was never even in business!

( tooting hysterically )

Uh‐oh! Monster meltdown!

Aw, Hugo. I know you're upset,

but I've got something that'll help.

It's a glitter jar.

Here. Shake it.

♪ When the glitter starts to fall like snow ♪

♪ Take a deep breath, nice and slow ♪

( inhales, exhales )

♪ Watch as it settles all around ♪

♪ And feel your body calming down ♪

‐ ( inhales, exhales ) ‐ Feel better?

Uh‐huh. Thanks, Esme.

But the monsters have spoken.

They want rocks, not art supplies.

Guess I'd better close up shop.

So long, crayons.

Goodbye, paint.

Aww. Adios, googly eyes.

Just look at Hugo.

‐ He's so sad. ‐ ( sighs )

I wish we could find a way for both Fig and Hugo

to have customers.

What'll we do? What'll we do?

( gasps )

Ooh! Pretty green rock!

Oh, yeah.

Green like a frog.

‐ See? ‐ Hee hee!

Froggy rock! Hop! Hop! Hop!

( gasps ) Wait a monster minute! That's it!

I know how both of you can get lots of customers!

You can make a new store and work together.

Hugo and Fig: Work together?

Yeah! You can use Hugo's art supplies and Fig's rocks

to make a store of rock animals!

What do you say?

‐ Yes! ‐ Yes, please!

That's a great idea!

Can I still be in charge of bags?

( laughs ) Sure, Roy.

Get ready, guys.

It's playtime.

( whistles )

( music playing )

I'm so happy, I could burst into song!

That shouldn't be a problem.

( Hugo gasps )

Yes! ( toots )

Welcome, everybody!

Whoo! I'll take that one!

Please! Take whichever one you want!

There's plenty for everyone!

‐ Plenty! ‐ This is brilliant!

Which one of you came up with such a good idea?

I did! Um, with my sister, Fig.

We make a great team!

Oogo.

Well, Roy, we've done it again.

And, ya know, I think I even learned

a little something about myself.

Oh, yeah? What's that, big guy?

I've got a future in this bagging thing!

( laughs ) Looking good!

( both laugh )

Esme: "Bedtime for Hugo."

( Esme humming )

It's here! It's here! It's finally here!

Ooh! What is it?

It's my Monster Beauty Sleep Kit!

See? It comes with fuzzy slippers,

a toothbrush for polishing my fang,

and a slime mask guaranteed to make my monster fur sparkle!

‐ Hee hee! ‐ Once I start getting my beauty sleep,

you won't even recognize me!

I'll be a whole new‐‐

‐ Aah! ‐ What?!

What is it?

I think I saw... a monster!

( laughs ) Roy, you are a monster.

You just saw yourself in the mirror.

Oh, right. ( laughs )

( monster‐case playing )

( gasps ) We've got a monster to watch!

( stops playing )

Yes! Tonight we're watching Hugo!

All right!

( honks )

( both laugh )

‐ Come on! ‐ Let's roll.

‐ Whoo! ‐ Yeah‐ha‐ha!

Here we are. Hugo's house.

Can I ring the doorbell this time?

You got it.

( foghorn blasts )

Esme and Roy are here!

‐ Hi, Hugo! ‐ Hey, buddy!

Come on! Baby Fig is already asleep,

but Dad said I can stay up and play!

That's right! Whooooa!

‐ Hey, Mr. Ooga! ‐ Nice skates!

Thanks. I'm meeting Mrs. Ooga

at the Monsterdale Roller Riiiiink!

Hugo can play a little while longer...

whoa...

but he needs to be asleep

by the time we get back. Yaaah!

You've got it.

When it comes to bedtime,

we're on the case.

The pillow case.

Oh! Thanks a ton.

See ya soooooon!

‐ Bye! ‐ See ya later!

Bye, Dad!

OK, Hugo, we've got a little time before bed.

What game do you want to play?

I've got a great idea!

Come on, explorers.

Your golden treasure must be around here somewhere.

Just be careful not to step in hot lava!

Ooh! Hot, hot, hot!

( gasps ) I see it! I see the golden treasure!

‐ Whoa. ‐ Wow.

Gotcha!

‐ You did it! ‐ Yay!

( clock cuckoos )

OK, Explorer Hugo,

that sounds means it's time to get ready for bed.

Yep. You've gotta put on your PJs,

brush your teeth, and get under the covers.

Bedtime? Now?

But... I don't want to go to bed.

I want to play with my monster‐sitters!

I know you want to keep playing,

but all little monsters need their rest.

So let's get you ready.

Wait! I just thought of a song I want to play you!

( takes deep breath )

( tooting melody )

That's great, Hugo.

Wait. I have a new dance I want to show you!

♪ Da‐da‐da‐da‐da‐da‐da ♪

♪ Da‐da‐da‐da‐da‐da ♪

Nice moves! But we gotta get you‐‐

Wait, wait, wait. I just want to...

um... uh...

I forget.

But let's just play until I remember.

‐ Hugo: OK? ‐ Is it just me,

or is Hugo avoiding bedtime?

( laughs ) Nice try, Hugo.

But we gotta get you ready for bed.

( sighs )

OK.

( gasps )

Introducing...

the Great Hugini!

Does the Great Hugini want to wear his train pajamas?

Or his planet PJs?

( gasps ) Such good choices!

How will he choooose?

Behold as the Great Hugini makes the pajamas...

disappear!

( gasps ) Where did they go?

Hugo.

You gotta admit, that Hugo's got talent.

Wait a minute. Where is Hugo?

I can't possibly go to bed

without a snack.

Can I have a snack?

Please, oh, please, with a cherry on top?

OK. One snack,

and then you need to get ready for bed.

OK, Hugo, what do you want to eat?

Hmm.

I'd like some frizzleberries, please.

You got it.

‐ Got 'em. ‐ No, wait.

I think I'd like stinky cheese instead.

Actually, can I have carrots?

Scratch that.

I think I'll have a homemade corn muffin

with a side of fresh slime

and a warm glass of milk, please.

Um, Hugo, you can choose one snack.

( sighs ) OK, OK.

In that case, I'll have a graham cracker.

Roy: One graham cracker, comin' up.

Ooh! Thank you.

Mmm. So good!

( snoring )

I'm pretty sure Hugo's avoiding bedtime.

Ahhh.

OK. You finished your snack,

so let's get you ready for bed.

But I don't want to go to bed!

I'm not... ( yawns )

sleepy.

Are you sure you're not sleepy?

That sounded like a sleepy yawn to me.

No. That wasn't a yawn.

( yawns )

That was just a, um,

slow hiccup.

If you say so.

Now, come on.

It's time to brush those teeth.

All right, Hugo, I've got your toothbrush.

‐ ( whirring ) ‐ Um, Hugo?

Whoo! Look at this!

It's Superduck!

Psssh! Quack‐quack‐ quack‐quack!

Psst. Roy.

I think it's time for our monster‐sitter bedtime song.

Your song was great and all,

but I'd like to make a few small changes.

Let's see. I'll need a bowling ball, a tuba, a helmet,

and just a few toys!

And while you get those things set up,

I'll warm up my voice!

‐ Whoa! ‐ ( crash )

OK!

I know you want to stay up longer, Hugo,

but you really need to rest

so you can play all day tomorrow!

Right now, it's time for bed.

Bed?! ( toots )

I can't possibly go to bed! ( toots )

There's too much to see! ( toots )

Too much to play! ( toots )

Too much life to live!

‐ ( tooting ) ‐ Uh‐oh. Monster meltdown.

I know you're disappointed, Hugo,

but it'll be OK.

Uh‐uh. But I still don't want to go to bed yet.

We have to get Hugo in bed before Mr. and Mrs. Ooga get home!

I know, but Hugo really doesn't want to go to sleep.

What'll we do? What'll we doooo?

Hugo: Are you guys sure

we can't keep playing?

This monster's ready

for another adventure!

An adventure?

Wait a monster‐minute,

that's it!

Maybe we don't have to stop playing,

if we make getting ready for bed an adventure!

( gasps ) A bedtime adventure!

That sounds... ( toots fanfare ) great!

Then get ready, guys.

It's playtime.

Esme: No peeking.

Oh, that's good.

Esme: OK, Explorer Hugo.

( gasps, toots )

In this adventure,

we're searching for the rare bedtime treasure.

Ooh‐hoo‐hoo! Bedtime treasure.

No one's ever been able to find it.

But according to legend,

the first clue is hidden on a musical instrument.

Musical instrument.

Hmm. Musical instrument.

( gasps ) The piano is a musical instrument!

The first clue!

I found it!

Will you read it to me, Roy?

Yep. It says, "Prepare for an adventure

with flying and leaping

by putting on clothes you wear when you're sleeping."

Clothes you wear when you're sleeping.

( gasps ) I need to put on my pajamas!

Huh. I put on my pajamas,

but where's the next clue?

I think I see it.

Oh, there it is.

( giggles ) What does it say?

It says, "In order to find a treasure tonight,

make sure your teeth are clean and white."

Make sure my teeth are clean and white.

I have to brush my teeth!

Look at me! I'm brushing my teeth.

( spits )

( gasps ) The next clue!

Here, Roy.

"You're getting close now,

but to move on ahead,

turn on the light you keep by your bed."

The light I keep by my bed.

My nightlight!

Here it is!

Whoa! There's an "X" on my pillow!

Esme: "X" marks the spot.

Bedtime treasure, here I come!

Explorer Hugo has to leap over the pit of snakes

and fly across the sea of sharks!

And finally, dig for buried treasure!

( gasps ) I found it!

I found the bedtime treasure!

‐ Yay, Hugo! ‐ All right!

That was so much fun!

Playing explorer is...

really, really...

really... ( yawns )

Help me get ready for bed.

I think I'm ready to go to sleep now.

Esme: Sounds good.

Wait!

Good night, Esme and Roy.

‐ Nightie‐night, Hugo. ‐ Good night.

Sleep tight.

If you start to get too cold,

I want your monstersitters to take you home to warm up.

This is so much fun!

Whee!

Uh‐oh, Roy! He must be getting cold.

Can we stay just a little bit longer?

Please?

(CHUCKLES) Okay.

But we'll have to find a way to keep you warm.

ROY: All you need is a scarf,

a coat,

another scarf...
