[Stink] I... is it true? What Jen said?

Like, are you actually gonna go to Camp Nightmare?

Please don't go.

[♪ eerie instrumental music playing]

[Stink] I have a bad feeling about this.

[Matty] Ghosts are not real, Stink. I'll be fine.

[Stink] Well, what if you're wrong?

[Hannah screaming, gasping] Matty!

[Anthony] Previously on Goosebumps.

I think Hannah needs our help.

And if we can help her, maybe we can help my dad.

Help!

-[liquid gushing] -[ship rustling]

[Avi] It's too late for them. Come on!

Think of the greater good. Contain... [wheezes]

Dad! [gasps]

Help us.

I'll help you, but we have to move fast.

Your father doesn't have a lot of time.

[screams]

[♪ ominous instrumental music continues]

[Devin] Guys, are you sure about going down there?

Because Cece and I have to go. It's our dad.

-Devin, we talked about this. -We're all in this together.

-[jet injector shoots] -Ow! What?

Everyone gets an injection of the serum.

A warning would have been great.

This only protects you

-from being podded. -Great.

What about the thing we saw in the video?

There's something, like, crawling around down there.

-[Ramona] I took care of it. -You-- [groans]

Uh... [hesitates] Sorry, um, I think we're gonna need,

like, a little more information.

-I killed it long ago. -Sorry, what? [yelps]

Is that the same serum stuff you're giving us now?

I've used it on myself many times.

Yeah, that's not comforting at all.

-Mm. Ow! -[exhales]

[Ramona] There's some emergency gear in this bag.

Flashlights, blankets

If he comes out of this, he'll be naked.

Uh, the trauma just keeps on coming.

[Ramona] Now, remember,

the serum only lasts for one hour.

There's one last dose for your father.

When it awakens him, it also awakens the ship.

-What? The ship can awaken? -I don't know.

So, this will definitely bring back my dad, right?

That I can promise you.

[Ramona] Remember,

if you're still down there when the serum wears off,

make sure you are out of the main room.

I'm turning on the backup generator,

and I will keep the hatch open from up here.

[hatch door opening]

Okay.

[♪ ominous instrumental music swells]

-I'm sorry. -[hatch door closing]

No. No, no, no, no, no, no! No!

[♪ theme music playing]

[♪ theme music concludes]

I can't believe this.

[♪ eerie instrumental music playing]

[Alex] Um, guys?

You're gonna want to take a look at this.

[gasps softly] What do we do now?

[Devin] What can we do?

[Cece] We can stick to the plan. Come on.

[♪ eerie instrumental music intensifies]

Oh, my God.

[breathes softly]

[gasps]

[Devin] Oh, no. Dad

No, no, no. Don't touch it, Cece.

[exhales] All right.

-Let's do this. -Okay. [exhales]

She said if it worked, it, like, would awaken the ship.

So, let's just be ready, I guess.

-[Frankie] Ready for what? -[Trey] A ship awakening.

I don't know.

You got it.

[breathes softly]

-[jet injector shoots] -[exhales sharply]

That's a little anti-climactic.

[pod rustling]

Oh, my...

Dad! Oh, my. [exhales] Is he...

-Yeah, yeah, he's breathing. -Okay.

[CJ] What about his eyeball?

[Devin] It's in his head, where it should be.

-[ship rustling] -[Frankie] Guys.

I know what awakening means.

-[Devin] Oh, wow. -Oh.

Okay, we need to leave this room.

-Now! Now, move! -[Devin] Okay, okay. Help me.

Okay, help me, help me get him up.

-[Trey] Get him up! Come on. -[Alex] Go! Go!

Come on, you gotta go! It's coming!

[CJ grunts] Close... close it, close it, close, close!

[♪ music concludes]

[train rumbling, whistling]

Hey!

So, my buddy at the juvenile parole center,

he was able to do that favor for me

-and track down Alex for us. -Oh!

-Thank you so much. -Yeah. [exhales]

-Uh... -There's a but, isn't there?

[inhales sharply] Uh, well,

the system was working just fine,

but then all of a sudden, her GPS went dark.

It went dark? How does it go dark?

Well, it's probably on the same wireless plan that I'm on,

'cause my phone drops out all the time.

Okay. Morales! I... [exhales deeply] I...

I can't get a hold of any of Alex's friends.

She missed curfew. She didn't come home at all.

And Anthony is gone. Something is up. I know it.

Could she have removed her monitor?

No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. If...

if it was tampered with, the system would know.

So, how does this happen?

Well, maybe she's just underground somewhere,

you know, like, at a subway station

or something. You know, I'm sure there's a perfectly good,

reasonable explanation for all of this, all right?

I bet if we put our brains together,

we could really-- You know, you want me to just--

You know what? This is a good idea.

You should get a move in-- Maybe I'll meet you later, then.

Just let me know if you need anything else.

Probably just a bad time to tell you that I love you.

[♪ ominous instrumental music playing]

Whoa.

This seems useful.

-[shouts] Oh, shit. Whoa! -Sorry.

-Sorry. Sorry. -We're trapped in a facility

with aliens. Please, no jump scares.

That's on me. You're right. You're right.

-Did the others find anything? -No.

The corridor is just one big circle.

The only way out is through the main room.

With the giant, angry spaceship.

Yeah. [chuckles] Yeah, that'd be the one.

You seem awfully calm...

considering...

-everything. -[inhales]

I'm not... [chuckles] ...actually.

I'm terrified.

Like, my mind is just all over the place.

Like, what if... what if I never get to, like,

eat pancakes again, or... or see the sun, or hug my mom?

Like, Devin... Devin, what... what if we--

Hey, hey.

We're gonna get out of here. Okay?

Just don't ask me how. [chuckles softly]

-[Cece] Hey. -[Devin] Whoa!

-No jump scares! -No jump scares!

Hey, wow. Wh... whatever.

Da... dad is fully awake. Come on.

[♪ ominous instrumental music continues]

[Anthony] He was here the whole time.

If I had just kept looking for him...

He's so young.

I mean, look at his hair. He always had great hair.

I know that's a weird thing to comment on,

but I'm kind of in a few different states

-of shock right now. -It is really good hair.

We gotta revive him.

She actually only gave us one dose of that new serum,

which we used on you.

Yup, and then, she locked us down here forever with no food,

-no water, and no cell service. -Dad, what are we gonna do?

Uh, look, guys, I know it feels like we're in a tough spot,

but here's what we're gonna do.

[Trey] Mm-hmm.

Nope, I don't have it. I--

Sorry. I... I thought I'd find it,

uh, at the end of that sentence, but...

Okay. We need to get the hatch open.

Well, I could open it from up there

in the control room, but from down here,

there's no way. There's no way.

This is even worse than I realized a minute ago.

-Okay, Dad. Dad. -Okay. Okay.

Wait, Dev.

Th... that first night

you were here, the hatch opened, right?

-Yeah. -How? What happened?

Okay. How was I supposed to know the transformer would blow up

when I jammed a pair of bolt cutters into it?

[Anthony] Okay. Here. Here, here.

When Trey blew the transformer, it cut power to the facility,

and it triggered the hatch to open.

That's why Ramona keeps power flowing into this place.

It's like a... it's like giant safe

with an electric lock.

All we have to do is figure out how to cut the power

from inside here.

-Just real quick, let's... -What are you doing?

Actually, I took a class in electrical engineering.

Did pretty good, too. Got, like, a C+.

-A C+? -[Trey] Mm-hmm.

Yeah. Anyone else have any experience

with electrical engineering?

Yeah, I’m... I mean, I hot-wired my mom's car once.

I can read electrical plans.

Like, look at this. Look at this.

These four pedestals, they're all connected.

When turned on, the ceiling opens up.

That's probably how they got the ship in there.

What-- Okay, that's great, but all we care about right now

is the hatch, so can we focus on that?

Right. Yeah. I'm just saying, you know.

The power runs into the observation room

right here, and there's a fuse box

right there.

-You sure? -Yeah...

-I'm sure. -Okay, good. Um,

Trey cuts the power, hatch opens,

everyone runs like hell.

G... guys, th... the serum, it wore off an hour ago,

okay?

We enter that room, and every single one of us

is in pods before we reach the stairs.

I... I know I'm usually the funny guy,

but that just had to be stated.

Yeah, we kinda like you better when you're the funny one.

-I'm a man of substance, too. -Oh, are you? Hmm.

[Anthony] Hey.

Someone tell me again

how Ramona's father disabled the ship.

[♪ music concludes]

Maybe I should go with you, Dad.

There's only one suit.

[Cece] But, Dad, what if you're wrong

about this plan?

If I'm wrong, it doesn't matter.

The only thing that matters is that you guys get out.

Look, you saved me, okay? Now, it's my turn.

Come on. Come on.

[♪ pensive instrumental music playing]

Dad?

Come here. Come here. [kisses] Come here.

Don't worry, okay? I'll be out in no time.

[kisses]

Is that, uh, T-H-Y-M-E, thyme?

[chuckles, inhales] Look at him with the plant joke.

-Yeah. [chuckles softly] -[chuckles softly]

All right. Remember,

as soon as I get the canister in...

-Trey blows the power. -And we run like hell.

-All right, go. Guys, go. -[♪ music fades]

Come on.

[♪ ominous instrumental music playing]

[breathes deeply]

He's at the canisters. You ready?

I'm ready.

Here we go.

-[grunts] -Dad!

[grunts]

[breathes deeply]

[pants]

Okay, he did it. Let's go.

[Frankie] Wha...

-That's your plan? -Worked last time.

Go! Get out!

-[grunts] -[electricity crackles]

C+, baby!

[alarm blaring]

-[Cece] Dad! Come on! -The connection's broken.

I have to hold it till you get out.

-We're not gonna go without you. -I'll be right there behind you.

-CJ, get them out of here! Go! -Go, go, go. Go, go, go, go.

Let's go. Now! Come on!

-Come on. -[CJ grunts]

-Dad? -Dad, come on. We're clear.

Guys, I think there's another backup generator kicking in.

-The hatch is gonna close. -Where is he?

-I'm going back down there. -No. No, no, no, you can't.

Uh, it's, like, closing, so...

But why isn't he coming?

Guys, come on. Generator's at 20 percent.

[Anthony] Help him up.

Guys, come on, come on. Forty percent.

[Cece] Are you okay?

[Trey] Fifty percent.

Seventy-two percent. Come on, hurry.

-Time's up! -[Cece] Come on, Dad.

[hatch door closing]

Dad, you almost died.

I couldn't... I couldn't leave them.

-I had to save-- -Matty?

[inhales, screams]

[♪ music concludes]

[♪ soft instrumental music playing]

Sorry, um... [exhales]

...we haven't had time to go to the store.

[chuckles] I mean, I can give you this kombucha.

My sister doesn't drink it anymore.

-Kombucha? -Yeah.

Okay. Um...

so, you're related to Matty?

Um, yeah. Yeah.

And you live here with him?

Well, we're actually just visiting for the summer.

Oh, my God. The taste.

-[chuckles] -Yeah. [chuckles]

I see why your sister stopped drinking this.

Yeah. Um...

I mean, she-- Well, she actually stopped drinking it

for another reason, which is a long story.

-We've met before, right? -Yeah.

Yeah, we have.

I thought so.

[sighs, exhales]

[Anthony] You found your old stuff.

Are you Stink?

You know I hate that nickname.

I'm starting to remember what happened.

I ran back in, and you guys were gone.

Jen was with me. We...

we called the police. They said...

they said you drowned.

But, Mom...

Mom kinda lost it.

So, we-- I mean, we looked for you, Matty.

-We tried. We... we tried. -I'm sure you did.

It's okay, Stink.

So, my kid brother's old now.

Well, I mean, I...

You know, I work out and, uh, eat well.

It's not working.

-[hesitates, chuckles softly] -[chuckles]

And I, um... [smacks lips]

...I became a botanist.

Wow, that's the least surprising thing

I've learned today.

So, Cece and Devin...

those are your kids?

-Your niece and nephew. -[chuckles softly]

I'm proud of you.

[grunts]

[breathes deeply]

I missed you so much.

I didn't want you to go back there.

-I... I had a bad feeling. -I'm so, so sorry.

Jen, come in. Matty's asking for you.

[sighs] Anthony, I can't.

It's too-- I went to his funeral.

It's just-- It's too much.

He just wants to talk to you.

Anthony,

this isn't just me catching up with my high school ex.

We have four presumed dead kids

in your house, I'm a cop.

-We need to tell someone. -Hey, no, we can't tell anyone.

You've seen E.T., right?

I mean, they'll take Matty away, and we'll never see him again.

So, what's your plan? This isn't a sleepover.

We don't know what we're dealing with.

Well, we know there's an alien ship

under Fort Jerome, and they're not here

to see Hamilton. Look, we gotta stop that thing.

And the only person who knows how is... is Dr. Ramona Pamani.

[scoffs]

The woman who tried to kill our kids?

Who melted your disembodied head?

Who prevented us from seeing Matty

and Sameer and Nicole and Hannah for 30 years?

That woman?

Pretty much.

Jen, listen.

This isn't a tape you can bury.

We gotta confront this thing head on, together.

Okay.

So, is this how people find love now?

Yeah, they don't seem to be liking it.

Who doesn't like Love is Blind? That's insane.

Okay, why would you think 40-year-old teenagers

who've been living in alien pods would want to watch a show

about getting podded?

So... [sighs] ...TV's really gone downhill.

Anyway, these guys wanna get out of here

for, like, a walk or something.

Uh, but Un... Un... Uncle Matty--

Just... just Matty. The uncle thing is really weird.

-Yeah, coo. -Right.

Coo.

Uh, yeah,

Dad said that we have to stay here

and not contact anyone until he gets back.

And he was pretty insistent about it.

I know why my little brother, now older brother, thinks that,

but I mean, these guys, they need some air.

Yeah, um, I mean, you... you know, I... I can imagine.

You've been in those pods for so long?

-Devin? -What?

Dad will be back soon.

Right, yeah, and then, they'll be back soon, right?

-Right. Coo. -Yeah, coo!

-No. -Coo!

No, not "Coo." Not... not "Coo."

They, who can I remind you, are supposed to be dead,

no offense, cannot just be, like,

out walking the streets together.

Right...

Uh, what if, um...

What if they... what if they split up?

I could g-- [stammers] I could go with Hannah.

Wh-- Or... or... [stammers] ...not... not. I could just...

[stammers] I... I... I don't have to go with Hannah.

Anyway, Nicole is, like, dying for a coffee.

-She's addicted. -Still.

[Matty] Yeah.

I can't go to the coffee shop after hours.

Okay, fine.

All right, yeah, I... I can take Sameer

to go get some food at the restaurant.

There we go.

Cece, I can stick around here if it'll make you feel better.

Okay. Okay. Okay, fine.

-That's low-key a plan... -Yeah.

-...if I ever heard one. -Right.

Yes.

[♪ music concludes]

[♪ eerie instrumental music playing]

-Anthony, stop! -What?

This time, you actually need to let me do the talking.

Why? Okay.

[Ramona] Pupils are equal.

Vitals, completely normal.

One more dose should do it.

-You've got to be kidding me. -[Ramona gasping]

Put it down. Now. Slowly.

It's her father.

[scoffs]

After all you put us through. You're not containing anything.

I can't keep doing it by myself. I need my father back.

-At the cost of our kids' lives? -Ramona?

Dad.

Dad.

-Ramona. -[Ramona] Yeah?

-How long? -Fifty-five years.

And I have been working on the 429 serum

the entire time.

I perfected it. I did the human trials.

It worked. That's how I brought you back.

Oh, no. [whimpers] What have you done?

-I saved you. -You didn't.

[breathes shakily] You... you can't.

It's been too long. Ramona, Ramona, I was wrong.

[inhales] You have to let it go.

-[gasps, groans] -No. No.

-[grunts, groans] This... -No.

-This isn't me. This isn't me. -[Ramona] No.

[gags, groans]

-Oh. -Oh!

[critter chitters, rasps]

Oh, hell, no.

-That won't work on it! -[snarls]

You have to use the serum! Don't--

[critter growls, snarls]

-[grunts] Go, go, go! -[Anthony] Come on! [grunts]

[snarls]

[♪ music concludes]

-[pants] -[exhales]

-Thanks. -You're welcome.

Anthony, if he turned into that thing, then...

-the kids. -The kids.

[♪ dramatic instrumental music playing]

[Sameer] Hey, man, could you stop for a second?

I don't feel so good.

I told you to lay off with the egg rolls, bro.

[Sameer] No man, this isn't me. This isn't--

[growls]

[Hannah] It's just up here.

Wait, what-- Where did it go?

My apartment building used to be there.

[Devin] I'm sorry. They keep on knocking down cool buildings

to build luxury condos with acai bowl places in them.

Hey. Hey, uh... are you okay?

This isn't me. This isn't... [gags]

Oh.

Uh...

Okay...

-Uh... okay. Okay, okay. Uh... -[chitters]

-[Trey] What? -[Frankie] Oh, my God.

-Frankie, watch out! -[Frankie screaming]

-Trey! No! Trey, not again! -He's gonna turn. Come on!

-[Frankie whimpering] -[grunts]

[Alex] Is this you as a kid? You're so cute.

Yeah, that's when the great hair started.

[chuckles]

Hey, I'm gonna get some SunnyD. You want some?

-I don't know what that is. -Oh, are you kidding?

It's, like, orange juice, but better.

-[door opening] -Hmm.

-[glass shattering] -[objects clattering]

Hey, are you all right in there?

[Matty] This isn't me. This isn't me.

Okay?

Guys, I found some more photo albums. [exhales]

[♪ eerie instrumental music intensifies]

Hey.

-Where'd you guys go? [grunts] -[speaks softly] Don't move.

[speaks softly] What's going on? Where's Matty?

-There. -[critter chitters]

[breathes shakily, gasps]

-[snarls] -[both scream]

-[whimpers] -They're all aliens!

-I know! -[Frankie] They got Trey!

And CJ.

-[critter snarls] -Guys.

-[Frankie] Oh, God. [gasps] -[Cece] Oh.

-Oh. -Okay.

-[Devin] Uh... -[Alex] Oh, God.

-[screams] -Okay! Okay.

Okay. We gotta go! Go, go! [screams]

-Uh. -[Cece whimpers]

-Okay. -What do we do? What do we do?

I don't... I don't know. I don't know. I don't-- Uh...

[critters chitter, snarl]

[siren wailing]

-They were podded. -Matty and the others turned.

-Oh, God. We're too late. -No, not yet.

Come on, come on!

-We have to release the ship. -What?

Just go. Go!

[siren wailing]

[Anthony] It's strange. When I was in the pod,

I felt a connection to them.

And Ramona's dad felt that, too. That's why he said, "Let it go."

They were just defending themselves.

They're not bad.

Well, they have a funny way of showing it.

[object clanging]

-[Jen] Did you hear that? -[Anthony] I did.

[fluttering]

-You hear that? -I did.

[critter chitters]

[snarls]

[jet injector shoots]

-[Anthony] Thanks. -I'm a cop. It's what I do.

-[critter chitters] -[screams]

I'm a botanist. This is not what I do.

-[clangs] -[grunts]

-[snarls] -[grunts]

-That was my last dart. -[critter chitters]

[Anthony] Come on, come on, come on!

[both] Oh!

This isn't going to hold for very long.

Are you sure this will work?

No.

[♪ dramatic instrumental music playing]

Okay, the whole floor is designed to open.

I saw it in the plans. Here, you get those, okay?

Just... just turn everything on.

This is crazy.

You're just gonna let the ship go?

What about the kids?

Jen, this is about saving the kids, okay?

-This is our only chance. Ready? -Yeah.

-Go. -[metal clanging]

-Anthony! -[critter growls]

I have to go. And this time, you can't follow me.

No, please, Matty, please. Don't... don't leave.

[Matty] You can't be there for me.

But you can be there for Cece and Devin.

It's time to let me go.

Anthony.

I'm okay.

We're all okay.

They're taking us with them.

Anthony. Anthony.

Anthony.

You did it.

You saved the kids.

They're gonna be all right.

[♪ music fades]

[♪ soft instrumental music playing]

Cec, Devin, come on!

Oh, hey, Alex.

-Come on, Cec, gotta go. -Okay.

Your mom said not to be late, and I really want to take you

to my favorite ice cream place on the way.

-You like garlic, right? -Sure.

-[Anthony] Okay. Dev! -[scoffs]

-[chuckles] -Um,

so, uh, have you ever done the long-distance thing before?

Oh, I've never done any sort of thing before.

Still, I might as well give it a shot.

-[chuckles] -[chuckles] Okay, um,

well, my first debate tournament's

in a couple weeks, so...

Oh, I thought you weren't doing that anymore.

No. I love it. I'm just...

done with doing it for any other reason than that.

Then I'll be there. Okay.

-[chuckles] -Okay.

But I don't want you to go.

[Devin] Okay.

What?

I, uh, I talked to my dad,

and I don't want to leave him here alone.

And I'm not like Cece. I hated St. Agnes.

And I feel like...

I don't know. I feel like I... I... I found my people here.

-[chuckles] -[Devin] A little bit.

[both chuckle]

Gravesend High, class of 2025!

Yeah, it's in my blood a little bit.

[laughs]

Hey, hi.

You don't have to hide it anymore. I'm not catatonic.

-[Frankie chuckles] -[Anthony] Okay.

Wow, look at all the people. How sweet. Say goodbye.

-Oh, Anthony. -[Anthony] CJ. Hey.

Hey, guys. Had to come by and send you off the proper way.

-Egg roll! -Egg roll! [chuckles]

[chuckles] Thank you, CJ.

[Devin] So, you got your job back.

Yeah, and I got that promotion, too, you know?

My mom thinks I'll shine in the management position.

Failed up, I guess. [chuckles]

Oh, congrats. Hug it out. Hug it out.

[claps]

-Well, guys... -[chuckles softly]

-[Cece] I'm going to miss you. -[Frankie] I love you guys.

-[horn honks] -[Cece gasps]

-My bad. Come on. Let's go. -[Alex] All right.

Okay. Wow.

-Bye. -Okay.

-Bye. I miss you already. -[Trey] See you.

-Okay. [chuckles] -[chuckles]

Okay. Let's go.
