[somber music playing]

Everybody...

I have something to tell you...

I'm--

[man on TV] Choose zero percent financing--

Just a sec, baby girl!

Lemme turn down the TV. I can barely hear you...

Whoops!

It's okay, Pops. I just need to say--

Gimme that--

Next week...

They must've changed the buttons!

Guys, it's fine. I'm tryna to say--

That's not even the right remote.

Hey, Astra, turn off the television!

What the-- Astra!

Hey! Everyone! I'm--

What? I can't hear you!

I'm Moon Girl!

What?

I said I'm Moon Girl!

[laughs]

If you're trying to get out of trouble

for stormin' off before, this is not the way.

No! Really! I am Moon Girl.

Oh, sure you are, baby!

And your best friend is a big red dinosaur! Haha!

[growls]

Yeah, best friend, sidekick, occasional life-coach...

[terrified screams]

- Thanks, D. - [grunts]

He says he's really excited to finally meet you.

- He even brought you gifts! - [sweet aroos]

Oh! A true gentle-rex!

- [gentle aroos] - Ooh!

Love the chiaroscuro, but my head isn't that big.

I birthed you, believe me, your head is that big.

I just don't believe it...

Strap in, everybody, for my rollercoaster!

What rollercoaster?

The emotional one where I say

"It's cool, it's cool." Then, "No way. Not Moon Girl."

What is happening? How is this happening?

Then, "Maybe it's fine...?"

Of course it's fine! Our baby girl is Moon Girl!

You know, I am both of your biggest fan!

And we fought a villain together.

Do you need a sidekick?

You could call me Rolling Thunder!

I kinda have a sidekick already.

Oh, of course, of course,

I wouldn't wanna step on your toes... [laughing]

[arooing]

Mom? You haven't said anything...

What do you think?

I mean, Moon Girl is brave, and smart,

and just cute as a button. And I made you!

Which means my girl is defender of the Lower East Side,

fighting for what's right!

I'm the best mother in the world!

But... I had absolutely no idea Moon Girl was my own daughter

this entire time!

I am the worst mother in the world!

Hey! Don't be so hard on yourself.

None of us knew.

Yeah, no way anyone could have known.

[aroos]

You knew!

[whimpers]

Yeah, but not everything.

Just the Moon Girl part... and the Devil Dinosaur thing...

and the whole "secret lab under the apartment."

Secret lab?

[screaming]

You knew. And you didn't tell anyone?

Not even me?

Oh, microscope...

[grunts]

Right! Good idea, hit the lights.

I anticipated that you may be feeling some kind of way

about this news, so I prepared an easy-to-follow

presentation to address any questions or concerns.

Let's begin.

My stats against villains are pretty impressive.

Here is the tech I've been developing.

Not only will this keep me safe, but the applications

on a global scale could be world-changing...

once the gender disparity in start-up funding is addressed.

Here's a copy of my current schedule.

You'll see I'm fully able to balance school,

activities, Moon Girling, and self-care.

Wait, debate club was fake,

but the Chaucerian Re-enactment Club was real?

And best of all,

the community service alone is gonna look great

on my college application.

Look, Lu, I mean, it's cool, but...

how could you keep this from us the whole time?

I didn't want to...

But I just never knew the right time...

I thought I needed to keep you safe.

Keep us safe? I thought I was the mom.

- This is a lot to take in... - Yeah...

[pants]

We have raised a strong, brilliant, brave young woman.

I trust her with my life,

and I trust her with her life. She can do this, Adria.

And I'll be super safe because no one else knows

my real identity. It was just Mimi...

[reminding grunt]

Right, and Casey. And Marvin. But he's an alien, so...

But no one else, I promise. We're safe.

[rumbling]

[footsteps]

[gasps]

Found you, Moon Girl.

[upbeat music playing]

- [roars] - No, no, dino.

[frustrated roar]

Not to brag, but the wall's pretty impenetrable now.

How are you doing this without--

Without my wand?

When your BFF Beyonder broke my wand

and left me in that sinkhole on my planet to languish,

I was humiliated, so enraged,

that my molecules began vibrating

at an intense frequency and I developed these new powers!

Who needs a wand when I can manipulate my own matter!

[grunts] Your beef is with the Beyonder and he's not here!

Oh, I've already looked high-- And low--

[shouting, screaming]

I couldn't find him! So, I figured,

if I can't hurt him,

I'll hurt the one thing he cares about most...

- You. - How did you even find me?

A little piece left behind from our last run-in.

Your stealth suit?

I used it to track you down across the multiverse--

That's who you fought

when you went through the inter-dimensional portal?

You let her go through an inter-dimensional portal?

She's not even allowed to go to Queens by herself!

- Enough! - [screaming]

[shouting]

Woah!

- [grunts] - [shouts]

Take tha-- yikes! Mom!

Don't you "mom" me right now.

[grunting]

Now, stay put.

[grunts]

Dad! I'm trying to Moon Girl!

And I am trying to save your life.

My thing trumps your thing.

[growling]

That's my boy!

And that's our cue-- floor it!

[grunts]

Oh, sugar! Quick, this way!

[breathing heavily]

Don't worry, y'all.

Rolling Thunder will figure out how to beat this thing!

Better yet, let's get out of here.

Can we go up the chimney?

Time to spill it.

What happened when you went through that portal?

Uh-- I, I ended up on Molecule Man's planet

with the Beyonder, who, it turns out,

accidentally destroyed the planet.

So, Molecule Man was out for revenge and attacked us.

I fought with my absolute everything.

But, it wasn't enough.

I almost died.

And now he's back, even stronger.

Mr. Molecule or whatever may have gotten stronger,

but so have you. You'll think of something,

I'm sure of it. My baby is cool like that.

[gasps] Cool! That's it! To the kitchen!

[overlapping chatter]

What are you doing?

No I just put that there.

[gasps] Stop, I've got a plan!

Me, too. Step one, live.

Y'all gotta trust me.

There's a deranged alien in my home

you forgot to tell us about.

Tell me again why I should trust you?

Because I do!

She lied about her actions, but not her abilities.

[yelps]

Lunella!

[upbeat music playing]

[upbeat music playing]

[intense growl]

[gasps]

[aroos]

[Lunella] Molecular movement is affected by temperature.

[Mimi] Heat makes 'em speed up and expand.

Cold makes 'em slow down and contract.

[Lunella] If we can slow down Molecule Man's molecules,

maybe we can freeze him to a stop! So we just gotta--

[both] Juice up that fridge!

Gimme 20 copper pots, 10 cereal boxes,

and all the aluminum foil you can find.

Now! Let's get cooking!

[munches, growling]

Seriously, Mimi-- I know you're brilliant, but this is specific.

Yeah! How do you know all this?

Well... I didn't get a chance to put a power point together,

but I'm kinda secretly

an astronomical physicist, code name Moon Girl,

who went into hiding after blowing up a secret inter-dimensional portal.

Say what now?

It was before we met.

I wanted to tell you, but I needed to--

"Keep me safe?" Uh-uh! Try again!

Your granddaughter already used that!

Uh, yeah. Maybe we can do this later?

You best believe we will!

[groans]

[growls]

[whimpers]

Ahh!

[aroos]

My planet may have been destroyed,

but you cannot destroy me!

- [growls] - Now!

[shouting]

What's happening?

[deep breath, gasps] See? Told y'all I could handle it.

[popping and cracking, bubbling]

Nothing stronger...

than red hot rage!

Ah! Run!

What do we do?

Oh! My room!

We can get down to my lab from my room and be safe!

Uh! No!

[breathing heavily] Time to finish what I started...

[gasping]

No! You touch one hair on her head

and I won't even need gamma rays to go full Hulk on you.

Ha, this is even better than I planned.

No! Ah!

Now Moon Girl can get a taste of what it's like

not to be able to save the thing you love.

Don't hurt them! I'll do anything!

No... you'll do nothing.

Because there's nothing you can do.

[suspenseful music playing]

[shouts]

James? You all right, sweetheart?

Are you listening, Moon Girl?

I want to make sure you can hear your family's screams

as I get my revenge.

[grunts]

Pops, are you okay? [grunts]

Devil! Devil? Are you out there?

Beyonder? Beyonder?

I'm sorry!

I know you're mad at me, but I really need you now!

Please help me! I'm begging!

I can't do this by myself!

[sobs, panting]

No! [sobbing]

I can't do it!

I can't save anyone!

I can't even save my own family! [sobbing]

[arooing, grunting]

Devil!

Devil? Is that you?

[arooing]

[gasps] My suit!

Devil, you're incredible!

Thank you so much.

[snorting]

[sighs] I may be young... I may be small...

But I am Moon Girl.

[upbeat music playing]

[upbeat music playing]

[growling]

[rumbling]

Moon Girl... My hero...

You better know it.

[grunting]

[growling]

Go, now!

- [shouts] - Go!

I'm not leaving my little girl.

We're all leaving!

[both grunt]

[grunting]

Stop! Mom, Dad,

I need to be fighting Molecule Man right now.

I can't be fighting you, too.

If you want to protect me, I need you to support me.

I know this is hard for you, but this is who I am.

Whether you like it or not,

I am Moon Girl.

I can do this.

You are my everything.

Ah!

Just you and me, baby.

And in case I don't get a chance to say it later,

sorry for your loss.

Loss? What do you know about loss?

[growling, grunts]

My planet was the one place where I finally didn't feel like

an outsider for being different.

Where I finally belonged.

[shouting]

[shouts]

[gasps]

To be accepted, embraced, by the multiverse

meant the world to me!

And just like that, it was all taken away.

[echoed laughter]

[somber music playing]

I lost everything.

So, there's nothing stopping me now,

for I have nothing left to lose!

[grunting]

Hey, huh...

[grunting, panting]

Like I said.

Nothing left to lose.

[somber music playing]

I... I don't understand.

But I do.

I understand why you were so hurt and angry...

You weren't able to protect the one thing you loved

and cared for more than anything.

Your beautiful planet was destroyed.

And that must have been so terrifying and painful.

There are no words, in my dimension or yours,

I can offer that will mend your pain,

but, I am sorry for what happened.

It's very painful.

My world was shattered.

And now...

yours is too. I'm sorry.

I've let my rage destroy your life.

And mine.

Maybe there's a way to heal your brokenness.

H-- How?

This suit is self-healing.

Made with organic spores. Thought it might help.

It more than helped.

I feel even better than before.

I was so focused on destroying others,

making them feel my pain.

When I could have used the strength I did have to rebuild.

But that changes now. Today.

I will go home and start using my powers to create.

To build back my world even more beautiful than before.

But first, I want to rebuild your home.

[upbeat music playing]

Thank you.

No. Thank you, Moon Girl.

For understanding, for seeing, and for healing.

Not many beings have that-- that--

- Moon Girl Magic? - Yes.

I'll return to my planet.

Do what I can to fix things.

It shall thrive again soon.

Mm. I know that's true.

[upbeat music playing]

Thanks for protecting my family, D.

Your family? He's our family now, too!

[touched aroo]

Not sure where you're gonna sit at Sunday dinner,

but we'll figure it out.

I could not be more proud of you.

I knew my hero would save the day.

Well, night. Whatever. Baby, you did great.

[chuckles] You weren't so bad yourself, Rolling Thunder.

Eh, maybe I'll leave the sidekicking to this fella.

[affirmative grunt]

Besides, there's already enough secret identities

around this house anyways.

Lunella Moon Girl Lafayette.

You are not only the bravest, strongest,

and smartest person I have ever met...

you are also becoming the most kind, compassionate, and wise.

You are everything a super hero should be.

Thank you, Mom.

But you are my daughter,

and you are never doing this again.
