[intense suspenseful music]

[Terrors snickering]

[evil laughter]

[screams]

[screams]

I've always wanted to know

what really happened after I woke.

[Terrors growling]

[suspenseful music]

What is she doing?

So what did Lunia do?

Erase everything?

I understand now.

To imprison the Nightmare King,

Lunia created an entire realm.

[theme music]

How do you dreamcraft a whole realm?

Only someone powerful enough to become a Dream Keeper

could harness that amount of dream sand.

[grunts]

[evil laughter]

[intense music]

The Cage Beast, too?

The Keeper must've been the realm's guardian.

So sad.

All Migo ever wanted was Lunia's attention.

Creating a realm must have been too taxing.

She had plenty of creativity and focus,

but had to draw from within for inspiration.

It... it proved too much for her.

The Realm and its Guardian seemed so perfect.

Nothing for the Nightmare King

- to draw power from. - [grunts]

But something or someone must have let him out.

[whooshing]

[sobs]

I miss her so much!

She... she used to scratch me right behind the ear.

I got ya, big guy.

Our mission is clear.

We must create a new Guardian of the Realm,

and trap the Nightmare King once again.

Look, how can we possibly create something

better than a dream keeper?

His homies will just bust him out again.

There's one thing we have that Lunia didn't in the end.

Yeah, me.

Each other!

Her team fell apart.

[Mr. Oz] Ours cannot.

Mr. Oz, speaking of falling apart.

Our Night Terror is still loose on our block.

And as soon as it gets dark...

The Festival!

It'll be the perfect hunting grounds.

[sighs] I have to contact

the Night Bureau.

They need to know this situation has become dire.

In the meantime, be careful, everyone.

Especially you, Isabel.

You brought that Night Terror over,

so it is coming for you.

Oh, come on.

We defeated a Terror in the Waking World

before we even knew what it was.

And Mateo almost died!

Go to the festival.

Keep people safe.

But be very, very careful.

You don't have the same tools in the Waking World.

Except this one.

We've faced worse.

Nah, old timer, we haven't.

And besides, there's still one thing

that stinks like last week's bananas.

Why steal the blob?

What is it we're not seeing?

[ominous music]

You know your orders.

[Nightmare King] Find the boy, get him away from the others,

and get him here.

[Hunter] Right away, your Loathsomeness.

[Susan] How are you going to get close enough

to do what his Gruesomeness asks?

The boy knows what you were.

But he doesn't know who I am.

Not in the Waking World.

Oh!

[indistinct crowd chatter]

[upbeat festival music]

No sign of the Night Terror anywhere.

- For now. - It's not here.

Maybe we should be focusing on the Nightmare King.

Like, how are we even gonna trap him?

I have an idea about that.

I know what you're thinking, Izz,

but we can't just charge in.

I'll come up with a real plan.

We give him the one thing he wants,

Lunia's attention.

Phil said it himself.

If that's all he ever wanted,

we dreamcraft a fake Lunia and trap him with the illusion!

Eh, it's a nice thought,

but how would we actually trap him?

Whatever we come up with,

it has to be something he'd never see coming.

- [growling] - [yelping]

- [chuckles] - [battle cries]

[Logan] Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa.

It's just a mask! Look, it's me!

- [grunts] - Relax.

The real Night Terror isn't here.

Then I'll find it!

The Insomniacs are on the case!

Just wait till I tell Jadyn and the others!

No, Nova!

You want people to panic?

Go check the maze.

And be careful! Please!

Fine.

Seriously though, you think that thing didn't bounce?

It's got the whole city to creep around.

Yeah. If we're lucky it stuck around.

Lucky? [scoffs]

I just hope to find it before it finds us.

[dark ominous music]

Real funny!

Logan, it's getting old.

Stop messing around, okay?

[gasps]

[sighs]

You really are talented, mi hermano,

but this has got to go.

- [ominous music] - [Terror growling]

[gasps]

[screams]

Guys! I just saw...

Dad.

Pops? What are you doing here?

[chuckles] What are you talking about?

The Garcias never miss a Fall Festival on the block.

Besides, look what I won. [laughs]

[Jose] Your dad is surprisingly good at carnival games.

Um, uh, thank you.

But, uh, we gotta go. Bye!

I love you. [chuckles]

Yeah. All Right. Kids.

I found the Night Terror!

What? Where?

There, behind the Ring Toss, in the shadows.

[tense music]

Ah, Mr. Oz should have just let me handle this!

Yo. What's the word?

I found the Night Terror.

But I've got a plan, contain it!

If we make sure the maze is empty

- and lure it in there-- - Where's Mr. Oz?

- He should be here by now. - [grunts]

I need to handle this before someone gets hurt.

I'll go drive it into the light.

I... I'm with Izzie.

Let's contain it and stay safe.

I think it's just like the Nightmare King.

We need to give the Terror what it wants. Me.

That's not safe.

Just wait here and keep everyone away.

I can defeat it.

We can defeat it.

Izz, I got this.

'Kay, seriously, where's Mr. Oz?

I'm calling him.

[tense music]

[gasps] What?

Huh? [gasps]

[cheeky music]

Hey!

[panting]

Huh?

[gasps]

You don't belong here.

This is my block.

Kid, this was my block before you were even

a twinkle in your parents' eyes.

You betrayed Mr. Oz.

You betrayed Lunia and the Night Bureau.

You're no Dream Chaser!

[Hunter] No, I'm not.

Not anymore.

I freed the Nightmare King,

and he gave me powers I never knew I was capable of.

Why are you here?

To give you a choice.

Come to the Nightmare Keep.

[Hunter] Save the blob.

You don't need their help.

And you certainly don't need their permission.

I don't trust you.

Oh, you definitely shouldn't.

But trust this, if you don't show up alone,

I know who's who.

I know who your friends are and where they live.

I know about your father and your sister.

Think about that.

Fine. I'll be there.

[Mateo] What? [grunts]

[Zoey] Who were you just talking to?

Uh, nobody.

Dude, I just saw you talking--

The Night Terror. Izzie spotted the Night Terror.

They're going to trap it in the maze.

Let's go!

[tense music]

Wait, why aren't you coming?

Uh, I... I have to take care of something.

Teo, whatever it is, we can take care of it together.

After the Night Terror.

Hey! What the heck?

Aren't you always telling me to be a part of the team?

[Zoey] So be a part of it!

Some things you have to do yourself.

Isn't that what you're always telling me?

What are you up to?

Sorry, we're closed!

[festival rock music]

Uh, sorry, we are temporarily closed

because of, um...

Technical difficulties.

Yeah, what she said.

Technical difficulties.

Technical difficulties?

With a mess of plywood?

[chuckles] Ooh! So spooky.

I thought you'd be playing your music on stage tonight.

Not monster dress-up with a bunch of dweebs.

[cackles]

You wanna see a monster,

look in the mirror, ya big turkey.

[chuckles] Oh, sick burn.

[laughing]

Hey, guys! Catch!

Brah, for reals? [scoffs]

What are we supposed to do with these?

Make shadow puppets?

Lay off, man, it's the best I could come up with

on short notice.

Guys, Teo just ran off alone

and wouldn't let me know what's going on.

Mateo.

[sighs] Great, he bailed on us.

Ha! What do we do now?

Yo, let's forget Teo,

'cause this party is starting with or without him.

Wonderful. So what's the plan?

Izzie has a solid plan.

We gotta get that Terror into the maze.

Away from all these people!

It's after me, so it will follow me there.

Whatever Teo is doing, which is so important,

I hope he can handle it on his own.

[indistinct festival chatter]

[doors creaking]

[eerie suspenseful music]

[gasps] Z!

- Let him go! - Of course.

Just as soon as you help me.

I'll never help you.

[evil laugh]

- [zapping] - [groans]

Fine!

[suspenseful music]

[growling]

[panting]

[Izzie] There you are! [panting]

Come and get me, you...

you sorry excuse for a nightmare!

Oh! [yelps]

[boy] Wow! Look, Mommy!

I wanna hug it!

No... no, touching the performers, please!

[screeching]

That's right. Keep coming, you creep.

[pants, groans]

[suspenseful music intensifying]

[gasps]

- [Izzie] Oh, no! - [Dallas screams]

[screams]

Bro! What did you do?

[grunting]

[groans]

Yo, what the...

What's keeping Mr. Oz?

I'll go find him.

Uh, we're not quite up and running yet, folks.

Make sure no one gets in.

I'll make sure that thing doesn't get out

to hurt anyone else.

Great! Now I'm taking orders from you, too.

Well, don't mess this up, Izz.

Wait, Izzie! [sighs]

Just like her brother.

Make sure Izzie's safe.

- Why do I have-- - Just do it.

You know, you're right.

You don't play well with others.

Help me get Dallas to Mrs. C's truck.

- [Terror growling] - [yelps]

[nervous laugh] Wow, huh,

great sound effects in there! [nervous laugh]

Now would be a really good time for some backup, Teo.

Where are you, bro?

[dark ominous music]

You have a choice to make, boy.

I already told you,

helping you isn't a choice I'm gonna make.

Oh, really?

Well, let me just show you what's going on

in the Waking World since you left so selfishly.

- [Izzie] Help me! - [gasps]

- [Izzie] Help me! - Izzie!

- Now do you understand? - [grunts]

Give me what I want

or watch your precious Dream Chasers

get corrupted one by one.

Why are you doing this?

What do you even want with Z Blob?

Your gooey companion can do a very special trick

that I cannot.

I merely need to hitch a ride.

Wait, you wanna go into the Waking World?

That's... that's impossible.

- [Mateo] You can't-- - [Nightmare King chuckles]

Lunia thought it was impossible for me to escape.

She had crafted the perfect prison for me.

Until the Hunter answered my call.

He let me out in exchange for more power.

He made a choice.

Now it's time for you to do the same.

Go on.

Use the Dream Keeper's hourglass.

Craft a bridge to the Waking World

with the blob, and your friends will go unharmed.

There's no way ever that I will let you take

one step into the Waking World!

[growls]

[annoyed sigh] How unfortunate.

So much potential.

Such bright lights to be extinguished

at such a young age.

So easily avoidable, too.

- [whooshing] - [grunting]

- No! - You fool!

I have no use for the blob if he gets corrupted!

Incorruptible?

[breathing heavily]

[both grunting]

[Nightmare King] Come on, boy.

- Give him-- - [Mateo grunts]

- [groans] - [Mr. Oz panting]

Whoa! What happened?

Izzie has the Night Terror trapped in the maze,

the planned worked.

[groans] Except for this.

It's all coming apart.

Mateo totally bailed on us.

Said he had to do something alone.

Dang it, Mateo!

Okay, listen, gang.

The Bureau is on the way,

but they're stuck on the Van Wyck.

We can't wait for 'em.

A portable Edison Ray.

It can cure Dallas.

I haven't used it in ages, it was a bit on the fritz,

but I have faith in you, Cooper.

- What do you mean? - [Mr. Oz] We have to get

to Izzie to make sure that Night Terror

doesn't hurt anyone else.

I need you to get this working before it's too late.

- Uh... - You got this.

Now hurry! We don't have time to waste.

Can I help with anything, mijo?

[sighs]

Not unless you can work miracles, Mrs. C.

[growling screech]

Please, don't come any closer.

[dark suspenseful music]

[rumbling growl]

- [sighs in relief] - [flickering]

- [gasps] - [screeches]

[strained grunts]

[both grunting]

Enough stalling!

[Nightmare King] Choose!

Use Lunia's hourglass.

Bridge our two worlds!

Never! [yells]

[annoyed groan] You abandoned your friends.

Yet you've failed to save your blob.

Please, don't come any closer.

[Izzie screams]

Oh! I guess you'll have to wait to see what happened.

- Izzie! - [evil laugh]

So be it.

I will choose for you,

I'll destroy everything you hold dear.

Starting with the Blob!

No!

[both grunting]

[yelps]

Izzie!

[gasps]

What have I done? [gasps]

[evil laugh]

[Dallas groaning]

[Mrs. Castillo] You know, mijo, sometimes

I don't have the recipe I need,

but I always know how it's supposed to turn out.

I just trust my instincts.

Okay, okay.

Follow your gut.

This goes here.

- [ray powering up] - [laughs]

Okay! Now we just...

[Dallas groans]

[laughs]

Ah! Yo, I had the freakiest dream.

How'd I get here?

You came for an Atomic Taco.

Quieres mas?

- [screams] - [growling]

[Terror screeching]

Corrupt this.

[screeching]

Oh, this maze is gonna be good.

Told you my plan would work.

Dallas is gonna be fine.

What about the Night Terror?

Bro, we totally got it.

Handled it like a boss 'cause we're the best like that.

[chuckles]

Ah, who am I kidding?

We weren't even second best.

Third worst maybe?

Barely.

[Mateo] Mr. Oz! Help!

[suspenseful music]

You made him wake?

I didn't need the boy.

I needed the power from Lunia's hourglass

that only he could unlock, and you could not.

[thunder rumbling]

It's working.

Ah, finally you've done something worthy of praise.

Now, gather my troops.

Tonight we take the Waking World!

[dark ominous music]

[grimspawns yelp]

You're... you're okay?

You're all okay?

Of course, we are!

[evil laughter]

Yo. Something tells me we're in for a long night.

[evil laughter continues]

[closing theme music]
