(THEME SONG PLAYING)

(SNARLING)

(GROWLS)

(LAUGHING)

(COUGHS)

Oh, excuse me. I have something in my throat.

So, can I still borrow that cup for sugar?

(SPEAKING GIBBERISH)

Oh, thanks B.

(SPEAKING GIBBERISH)

(SLURPING)

Bye!

(SHIVERING) Is that thing gone?

Yes. You can come out now, Chester.

Why are you so afraid of Bunnicula's guests?

Yeah!

Because I am a cat of science!

And those supernatural things don't make any sense.

Observe.

Inertia makes sense.

Gravity makes sense.

Electricity makes sense.

Thank you, Thomas Edison.

All because of science!

Yeah, but then...

How do you explain Bunnicula?

Ta-da!

Well, um, that's easy.

According to British science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke,

any sufficiently advanced technology

is indistinguishable for magic.

-Um... -I dunno.

That's it! I don't know why I didn't consider it before.

Just as the scientists of old proved that the Earth revolves around the sun,

I'm gonna prove that Bunnicula and all his little monster friends

aren't supernatural.

And I'm gonna do it using science!

Huh?

Oh, jeez, sorry.

I'm still here. Miscalculated my exit.

If someone could just open a window or a door

and nudge me gently in that direction,

that would just be so super.

(BUBBLING)

Mmm.

Bunnicula, stop that.

(SPEAKING GIBBERISH)

In order to get the best results,

I need to conduct my experiments in a controlled environment.

That means no wacky shenanigans from the two of you.

Harold, the stethoscope, if you please.

For the record, this is a wacky shenanigan.

No, that's a bana.

(GROANS)

I will begin with a physical exam of the subject.

As predicted, the subject displays no sign of a heartbeat.

(THUMPING)

Wait, he does have a heartbeat?

(SPEAKING GIBBERISH

(BUZZING)

Hey, that's Mina's cell phone.

She's been looking everywhere for that. How did it get in your neck?

-I dunno. -(CRASHES)

(SPEAKING GIBBERISH)

Nope, no heartbeat.

Now, why would he not have a heartbeat?

Oh, oh, oh, oh, me, me, pick me, pick me, oh, over here!

Yes, Harold.

-Can I go to the bathroom? -(GROANS)

No.

May I go to the bathroom?

What I'm trying to say, Harold, is that most people might jump to conclusions

and assume Bunnicula is a vampire.

But not me. I'm going to use

science!

Let us begin.

(CLICKS)

-Say "Ah." -Ah.

-(GROWLS) -(GASPS)

(CLICKS)

Ah!

Ah!

(LAUGHS)

(EXCLAIMS)

(SPEAKING GIBBERISH)

(SHOUTING)

(SCREAMS)

(SLURPS)

Huh?

(EXPLODES)

That's it! I'm a genius.

What is it, Chester? What have you discovered?

Because I haven't been able to figure out anything from these notes.

Don't you see, Harold?

Just as corn can be used to power cars,

carrot juice is what powers Bunnicula.

So...

Bunnicula is a car?

(HONKS)

Bunnicula being a car is ridiculous.

Obviously, he's a robot!

How did you come to that conclusion?

-None of the experiments resulted in... -Shh.

Science.

Science looks a lot like the basement ceiling.

(GROANS)

(SNORING)

(SNORING) I love you.

(SNEEZES)

Hmm. So, robot bunny,

what is your purpose?

Who sent you here?

(YAWNS)

(GASPS) Aliens!

Now you are just jumping to conclusions.

Who else would be advanced enough to build a robot spy?

(ELECTRICAL BUZZING)

(GASPS)

(SCREAMS)

Why did I have to be right?

Genius can be such a burden.

Okay, it's time to be brave.

You're gonna have to make contact with Bunnicula's alien creators.

(PANTING) For science!

(GASPS)

(BEEPING)

(WHIMPERS) Attention, alien life forms.

I am not the leader of this planet.

Even though I probably should be.

Know that we come in peace.

I mean, you come in peace.

We were already here. I mean...

I hope you come in peace.

(BEEPING)

ROBOT VOICE: (ON SPEAKER) We approach.

-(SCREAMS) -We arrive

-tomorrow morning... -(WHIMPERING)

...in a four hour window between 9 p.m. and 1 a.m.

-Huh? -End transmission.

(SNORING)

(MUMBLING)

So, are the aliens here yet?

No, but it won't be long now.

These aliens might come in peace.

But they might also come in not peace.

You made me a hat! I didn't make you anything.

-Is it hat day? -It's made of aluminum foil.

It might help keep Bunnicula from reading your thoughts.

There's nothing more private than a man's own thoughts.

HAROLD: I still need to go to the bathroom.

I also took the liberty of gathering some supplies

in case we need to fend off an alien attack.

(QUACKING)

(ELECTRICAL CRACKLING)

-Oh, no. -(ELECTRICAL BUZZING)

It's happening again.

-(QUACKS) -(BREATHING HEAVILY)

-(YELPS) -(QUACKS)

ROBOT VOICE: (ON SPEAKER) We are here.

(BOTH WHIMPERING)

BOTH: Hmm?

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

If the aliens reduce the Earth to a big ball of gray goo

I just want you to know that I... I love you, man.

Look, I don't want to hurt your feelings,

but I'm already pretty in love with turkey bacon.

-(DOOR OPENING) -(BOTH GASPING)

(BOTH WHIMPERING)

You are the leader of planet Earth?

Well, no. Probably should be.

But basically, I'm just a house cat.

You will decide the fate of your planet.

Become our slaves or we will destroy you.

No, you don't seem to understand. I'm... I'm not...

Choose.

All this time I've been afraid of the supernatural, but science is even worse!

This is not science!

Wait, what?

Scientific method requires proof.

And you never obtained any proof.

You just jump to conclusions.

-Excuse me? -(BUNNICULA LAUGHING)

(LAUGHING CONTINUES)

(BUNNICULA AND ALIEN LAUGHING)

Wait a minute. Is this a... Bunnicula, did you prank me?

-(LAUGHS) -(HAROLD LAUGHING)

Harold, you were in on it?

No. No I'm just laughing because everybody else is laughing.

Ha, it's hysterical!

(LAUGHS)

Huh, you're...

(CHUCKLES) Yes, I'm Thomas Edison's ghost.

What? Why would you do this to me?

Well, Bunnicula came to me for help with a prank

and I owed him one after the whole Nikola Tesla debacle.

In case you haven't read your history,

I can be a bit of a jerk sometimes.

(LAUGHS)

I admire your spirit, Chester.

I dedicated a good part of my life

to the study of electricity, and I still don't understand everything.

But you might, someday.

If you really apply yourself,

nothing is impossible.

Thanks, Mr. Edison's ghost.

One day, I will be able to explain Bunnicula,

-with science! -With science!

-With science! -(THUNDER CLAPPING)

(LAUGHS) Yeah. Hi, it's me.

Still here. It's been four days.

You'll rember I got here and it was Tuesday.

And now, here we are.

Really would like to see my family, and, uh...

Maybe have some food.

CHESTER: Science!
