(SNARLS)

(LAUGHS)

Barbara. Always a pleasure.

Hello, Arthur.

Are the girls ready for their sleepover?

Girls! Becky's here.

So, I've been working with the bees, out back.

I do that now.

Beekeeping. Jiving with the hive.

Please, stop.

-Bye, Dad. -Bye, Mina's Dad.

Bye, girls. Make good choices.

You'd better beehive.

(LAUGHS) Oh, bee humor.

I should have them back around noon tomorrow.

ARTHUR: Thanks, honey muffin?

Ugh, I beg your pardon?

-Honey muffin. I made them myself... -(CAR DOOR CLOSES)

For you.

Ugh, is that pet hair?

I'm deathly allergic.

But, you won't beelieve the flavor. (LAUGHS)

-Oh, bee humor. -(CAR ENGINE STARTING)

Nailed it.

Hey, check out this weird little gnome

I got from Madam Poloudori's shop.

Isn't he perfect?

What's that on its back?

BECKY: Oh, he comes with a backstory.

"I look like a gnome cap all in red.

"But beware this deception may it fill you with dread,

"for friendly I'm not, and hungry I be.

"Danger. Do not put this hat on! Beware! Beware!"

Aw, he comes with accessories.

Hmm, where's your little red cap, hmm?

You are gonna heed that warning, aren't you?

You know, (STAMMERS) with the dread and the danger.

Ah! Madam Poloudori just adds those tags to drum up sales.

(GIGGLING)

Don't do it! Mina's Dad said to make good choices.

I can't watch.

Hmm, nothing happened.

BECKY: Lame.

(CACKLES)

Well, looks like it's a boys' night tonight.

You, me, and deez bees. (LAUGHS)

I am so lonely.

-Should we be concerned? -Eh, he'll be fine.

(GNOME CACKLES DISTANTLY)

(GASPS)

Why would you buy something so horrible?

I'm really into gnomes right now.

A red cap is basically the same thing. Right?

BECKY: (ECHOING) Red cap, red cap, red cap...

(CACKLES)

Mina!

Geez! Always with the dramatic exits.

(CHUCKLES) Fluffy.

(GRUNTS)

(HISSING)

Mina...

(GRUNTING)

(GROWLS)

(GROANING)

Ooh, mosquitoes are getting big this year.

(LAUGHS)

So, what's the plan for tonight?

Uh, the usual. Jammies, makeovers, the latest hot gossip.

And then, we marathon all four films in

the critically-acclaimed and Oscar-nominated Gnome quadrilogy.

BOTH: Ugh, Becky.

Hey, I'm allowed to have a hobby.

(CACKLING) (GASPS)

(ROARS)

(GROANING)

(LAUGHS)

Whoa! You weren't kidding when you said you were into gnomes now.

MINA: When you go hard on something, you go all out.

Gnome clock,

gnome toiletries...

Are these gnome-chucks?

Gnomes make me happy.

BOTH: You're so weird.

-(DOOR CLOSES) -Hmm...

(BLOWS RASPBERRY)

Hmm...

(HUMMING)

(LAUGHS)

(GASPS) (SPEAKS GIBBERISH)

(GRUNTS)

(LAUGHING)

(GRUNTS)

(SLAMS REPEATEDLY)

(PANTING) Ya!

(CHUCKLES) "Jiving with the hive." (SPITS)

(GROANING)

(BABBLING)

(HISSING)

(SPEAKING GIBBERISH)

-Mina's in trouble! -Wait, I don't follow.

Ah! Help!

We're coming, Mina!

MAN: The Joy of Cooking People.

How To Cook Your Early Teen.

The first step when preparing is to frighten it.

A good five seconds of heart-pumping fear should do the trick.

(GASPS)

(YELPS)

-Becky! -What? What is it?

Your red cap just moved. (STAMMERS) I saw it move.

MINA: Didn't we leave that doll upstairs?

He just wanted to hang out with us.

(SHUDDERING) I'm gonna sit over here.

So, what are we looking at?

(GRUNTING)

-CHESTER: A garden gnome? -(HISSING)

(BOTH SCREAMING)

What is that thing?

(BABBLING)

HAROLD: Bunnicula says it's a red cap. A people eater.

And it's planning to eat Mina and her friends.

Wait, wait. It wants to eat Mina?

And her friends.

Hmm.

(BABBLING)

HAROLD: He says we need to get the hat off of the red cap

in order to seal him back up again.

What do you mean, we? Just go in there, and do it already.

Oh, right. Vampire 101...

He can't enter a house without being invited in first.

Mina's in trouble!

MAN: Step number two.

Let them marinate a few minutes

in the uncertainty of their safety.

(SCREAMING)

-Marsha... -It's taunting me.

BOTH: Cuckoo.

Harold, give me a boost.

(DOOR BELL RINGING)

Huh?

Oh, you're Mina's pets.

How'd you get all the way over here?

-(WHISPERING) That's not Mina. -Look.

(SINGING)

She has to let us in.

Turn up the charm.

Oh, I'm deathly allergic.

(SNEEZES)

MAN: Step three. Season to taste.

Do you guys smell Bayou Sprinkle?

He's seasoning them.

Mina. (GROANS)

Ugh. Useless.

Mina's doomed.

Harold, give me an update. What's the gnome doing now?

Well, the handsome gnome just declared his love

for the beautiful space-witch gnome,

but the space-witch gnome is actually in love

with his best friend, the gnome detective. And get this!

The gnome detective has been in love with the astronaut gnome

this whole time!

I just hope the astronaut gnome recognizes

his true love before it's too late.

The red cap, Harold, not the movie.

You had one job...

I have no idea what I'm doing.

Where could he have gone now?

MAN: And the final step before enjoying your hard-earned meal...

Prepping the kitchen.

You want that oven at a good baking temperature.

Don't want to overheat that early teen.

350 degrees ought to do it.

Is the oven big enough?

These are growing girls, after all.

Perfect.

-(SQUEAKING) -Shiny.

(KISSING)

Set up something a little fancier for yourself. You deserve it.

How romantic.

-(SIGHS) -We still have a few more minutes

before the oven is pre-heated. Any ideas?

Well, you know, it's weird how Bunnicula has no trouble

getting around the Orlock Apartments.

Even though it's like a bunch of little houses inside of one big house.

Well, if Bunnicula had a tiny house,

maybe he could use it to get inside somehow.

CHESTER: A tiny house, within a house?

You asked for new ideas.

Oh, come on!

Ah! First the doll moving around,

and now this?

So, maybe the house is a little haunted.

Oh, this is horrible. I can't watch.

-(CLATTERING) -Wait. What's that sound?

(PANTING)

Using Harold's dog house to gain entry into Becky's house?

A tiny house... Brilliant!

(CHARGES)

-(ALL GASP) -Okay, so it's a lot haunted.

-I'm going home. -Oh, no, Marsha, you got to stay.

You never spend the whole night at sleepovers.

-We'll protect you. -Yeah.

We haven't even gotten to the shirtless gnome scene yet.

-Shirtless gnome scene? -That's the spirit.

Gnome abs await.

-(CRASHING) -(COUGHS)

Whoo-hoo!

Ha-ha!

You think you gnome me?

Gnome more Mr. Nice Guy.

Uh, I'm starting to see why you like gnomes so much.

(HUMMING) (GASPS)

(ON TV) You threaten my family...

Gnome way I'm gonna let you hurt the people I love.

(YELLS)

(GASPING)

(SHUDDERS)

(SIGHS)

(GASPS) Gnomes, leave me alone!

(SOBBING) Why won't the gnomes leave me alone?

(CRYING)

BOTH: Cuckoo.

Argh!

-(SCREAMS) -(GROWLING)

(GASPS)

Bunnicula!

(CACKLES)

Huh?

(SCREAMS)

I'm deathly allergic! Shoo, shoo! (SNEEZING)

Phew. (CHUCKLES) Whoo-hoo!

-(DIAL TONE) -BARBARA: Aha. Hmm.

Hello, Arthur.

Barbara! What's all the buzz?

(CHUCKLES) Bee humor.

Yes, yes, of course.

Your daughter's pets somehow found their way into my home.

-If you could come... -(DOORBELL RINGING)

-(BEES BUZZING) -Arthur?

For you.

Did you grow a beard?

What beard?

(SCREAMING)

The bees! This is beetrayal.

Ow! Bee humor.

(ARTHUR GROANING)

Ugh. Sleepover's over. Thanks, Dad.

ARTHUR: Ow!
