The Haunted Hathaways (2013) s01e02 Episode Script

- Great practice, Taylor.
- Thanks, Lilly.
I'm so psyched you're joining our gymnastics team.
You're gonna love being a fighting Inchworm.
I already do.
At my last school, the mascot was the squirrels.
Do you know how hard it is to look cool while doing this? Psst, Taylor.
I uh, left my phone on pinch mode.
It's a thing.
I got to take this.
Miles, I have company.
But they can't see me.
Only people who live in the house, remember? Do you remember how we talked about sneaking up on me and being all ghosty? Great feedback.
I'll take a note.
Less ghosty.
What do you want, Miles? Your mom says she needs you upstairs to help unpack.
So what are you guys talking about down here? Bye, Miles.
Sorry, guys.
I have to get going.
No problem.
But before you do, we have a surprise for you.
A big surprise.
It's a tradition to have a sleepover when a new Inchworm joins the team.
Total tradition.
Woo-hoo! Emma's excited about it.
I am.
That's awesome.
I love sleepovers.
Great.
How about tonight? Tonight totally works for me.
Great.
We'll be here at 6:00? Excuse me? Come here? It's a tradition.
The newest Inchworm always hosts the sleepover.
Wait, tonight? Oh, I can't.
I've got a thing at the thing with a thing.
So many things.
Taylor, is there some reason you don't want us coming over? I forgot my pencil.
Can't think of one.
Then we'll be here tonight.
And by tomorrow you'll be an official Inchworm.
Or the official weirdo who lives with ghosts.
If you move into a haunted house.
You've got to try to work things out.
So if you're living with a ghost or three.
You got to be one big, semi-scary family.
Don't know how we ended up this way.
But guess you could call us The Haunted Hathaways.
The Haunted Hathaways.
The Haunted Hathaways.
The Haunted Hathaways.
Thanks for helping us move in, guys.
You lighten the load literally.
Hey.
What are ghosts for? Um, scaring.
Anything but helping.
This is a travesty.
Ghosts should be feared.
Okay, Louie, but the little duckies on your socks are not helping.
They aren't duckies.
They're yellow monsters.
Oh.
We all know how you feel son, but regardless We agreed to share the house with Michelle and the girls.
That's right.
And we're gonna make this work.
I promise.
You won't even know we're here.
Mom! Starting after whatever this is.
Mom, the gymnastics team is coming over for a sleepover tonight.
That's great.
That's horrible? Can you just tell me? I'm not good at reading you.
Do you know what the kids at school would say if they found out I live with ghosts? No offense.
How would they find out? Oh, I don't know.
If they saw something like that.
Like what? My supreme awesomeness? Are those yellow duckies on your socks? Forget it.
Taylor, have your sleepover.
My boys will behave.
It'll be fine.
Better than fine.
It'll be great.
So what time should I swing by? Miles, this sleepover is for my gymnastics team.
Come on, Tay.
Do you know how long it's been since I've been to a party? It's not really a party.
It will be when I get there.
He said what? See that charm? He'll be the hit of the party.
- Mom.
- Taylor.
Ray's right.
If we're gonna share this house, we're all gonna have to be flexible and make compromises.
- Okay, fine.
- Yes! When I say, "party," you say, "Miles".
Party.
Miles.
We'll pick this up later.
Oh.
Those are my mannequin heads.
Frankie, why do you have mannequin heads? What are you, a cop? I'm gonna keep my eye on you.
Meanwhile I'm just gonna take these to your room.
Thanks, Ray.
It's the big one at the end of the hall.
Nice try, Frankie.
Mom, I'm older.
I should get the bigger room.
I'm with Taylor on this.
She's got seniority.
Fine.
But this isn't over.
And, remember, I know where you sleep.
Me too.
The big room.
Okay, son, concentrate on the ghost balloon and the target.
Now the key to moving objects is focus.
Be the water balloon, Louie.
Okay.
So let's talk about what went wrong there.
Why bother? I'm never gonna get this.
Look, son, this is why we do drills.
You'll get better.
But only if you practice.
I should be practicing on real people, like I don't know, the ones living in our house.
Look, I know it's hard for you, Louie.
But we made a promise not to scare away the Hathaways.
You'll see.
Living with them will be fine.
Starting after whatever this is.
Be right back.
Hello.
Have you ever heard of knocking? I couldn't help but overhear your little problem.
That was one time.
I drank a lot of water before I went to bed.
Not that.
Your little problem about not being able to practice your ghosting.
I think I have the solution.
Do you think I need a little girl to help me solve my problems? We both know the answer to that.
If you want to practice, you should haunt my sister's sleepover.
But I promised my dad I wouldn't scare you guys.
Right, but Taylor's friends are fair game And they'll all be here tonight.
In her big, stupid room that she viciously stole from me.
So I could scare the snot out of those girls! And show my dad I've got game.
Let's do this.
It's time to turn these Inchworms into flinchworms.
That was good.
Note to self copyright "flinchworms".
- Come on.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
What are you doing? I thought the piano might look a little better to the left and on the curb.
This piano isn't going on the curb.
I played this beauty in four different bands.
It's just that it's taking up a lot of my living room.
Our living room.
Yeah, mom.
Ray's right.
If we're all going to get along, we have to make compromises and be flexible, right? Don't you have a sleepover to get ready for? The girls will be here any minute.
Nothing's floating or flying.
I guess that's good.
Sweetie, you just need to relax and enjoy yourself.
You're right.
I'll be fine.
They're here! What was I thinking? Tell 'em I moved to Mexico.
Taylor, the door.
- So about the piano - Mm hmm.
I bet you'd change your mind if you knew how to play.
Let me give you a few lessons, and, if you don't fall in love with it, the piano goes.
Fine.
I'll be flexible.
This is me playing a scale.
This is me losing my mind.
I don't know if he likes me.
He always looks at me, but he never says anything.
Emma, he's your dog.
Am I late? I brought graham crackers and my book of ghost stories.
Phone call.
Miles, can you be more careful? They may not see you, but they can see things floating.
Sorry.
I'm still adjusting to this whole "living with non-ghosts" thing.
So what goes on at these things? Pillow fight? No.
Good, because that does not sound fun to me at all.
So what are we gonna do? I don't know.
Hang out.
Yeah? We can keep things chill.
Or It's party time.
How psyched are you that I'm here? Okay.
You ready to get your scare on? Are you kidding? Louie's the name, and scaring's my game.
I got more boos than shoes.
I'm the ghost with the most.
- The phantom with the - Are you done? The girls are only here for ten hours.
So what should we do next? Have you guys seen Love Lake? Oh, my gosh, Emma and I just watched that last week.
It's like our favorite movie.
The end, when Lucas proposes to April in front of everyone at the lake.
Whoa! Spoiler alert.
That's so Emma.
All right.
Here's how it's going down.
While they watch the movie, you're gonna sneak into the TV, then jump out when they least expect it.
But how will they see me come out of the TV? I'm invisible to them.
You'll be wearing This.
I made my grandmother faint with that mask.
Good times.
Who are you? Just a girl with a slightly smaller bedroom.
For now.
They're going to kiss.
Yeah, kiss the bad boy, April.
Good move.
Hope that works out for you.
You know what, I actually think this could be a good night.
Ready or not, it's Louie time.
Everyone, try to relax.
I think I'm stuck in here.
Help! Help! Seriously, this is not cool.
Phone call.
I'm popular tonight.
Miles, what is your brother trying to pull? I'm not sure, but he's totally gonna ruin our party.
Our party? Oh, right.
Sleepover.
I'm gonna go talk to him.
This ends now.
Take me with you.
Well, Ray, what can I say? You were right.
I am loving this.
All right, then, the piano stays.
Why don't we pick up this lesson again in, say, six months? Are you kidding? I am totally hooked.
I'm going to be practicing each and every day for hours and hours.
Oh, look at you getting emotional.
Mm-hmm, this experience has affected me.
That fish mask messed up my powers.
Yeah.
That's what happened.
Well, well.
If it isn't the scare bears.
Look, you two, I finally have something cool to do on a Friday night, and I'm not gonna let you ruin it.
You can't prove I was in that TV.
I mean, what TV? Listen, the haunting ends now.
This party's important to Taylor.
You know what, you're right.
We were being insensitive.
We'll stay away, Miles.
We promise.
Hmm.
Wasn't expecting that, but loving the attitude, Frankenberry.
Thanks so much for setting us straight.
What a sap.
Okay, Plan B, scaring the poop out of those girls.
Man, who am I kidding? That TV stunt was a disaster.
I'm just glad my dad didn't see it.
I'll never be a great ghost.
Hey, that's quitter talk.
Are we going to let Miles and Taylor push us younger kids around and take our bedrooms? No! Wait, bedrooms? Exactly.
Us younger kids have to stick together.
When the ghosting gets tough, the tough get ghosting.
You're right.
No one tells Louie what to do but Louie And my dad and my grandma when she's visiting.
But that's it.
This sleepover is about to turn into a creepover.
Flinchworms, creepover.
I'm on fire tonight.
Who wants garlic dip? Oh, come on.
It's not that bad.
Oh, wow, that is a lot of garlic.
Okay, we're back on track.
Is this going great or what? Wow.
It has been a long time since you've been to a party.
Then you know what it's time for? Do not say pillow fight.
Why would I say it when I can do it? Miles, stop it.
Seriously.
Are you okay? Yeah.
I'm totally fine.
Miles! Look what you made me do.
Sorry.
Who's Miles? Wait.
You name your pillow too? So you got something good? Oh, I've got something.
Ghosts are able to create illusions that everyone can see.
So I'm gonna appear to them as a fire-breathing monster.
Whoa.
You can do that? Scary monster about to pounce.
Is this what slumber parties are like in New York? Taylor, why is there a goat in your room wearing a cowboy hat? I always say it's not a party till the goat shows up.
Taylor, I'm really starting to get weirded out.
There's some odd stuff going on in this house.
Maybe we should go home.
Yeah.
Hey, so you guys never discuss what happens at sleepovers at school, do you? That's what I thought.
Well, we'll see you, Taylor.
Don't worry, Tay.
I got this.
Trust me.
Just read.
I'll do sound effects.
We could save this.
Girls, wait.
You can't leave before we read a ghost story.
The story is called the swamp witch of New Orleans.
"Feeding on young children, she travels on the wind".
This is pretty cool.
Oh, my gosh.
This is totally freaking me out.
Keep reading.
A goat in a cowboy hat? Yeah, I was embarrassed for you in that one too.
I'm sick of messing up.
I just wish one of my scares would go right.
Son, are you okay? No, I'm not okay.
I'm trying to be scary, and I can't.
Who said you had a hairy aunt? I tried for a monster and got a goat.
What hamster got a boat? What? I can't take it anymore.
This piano lesson is over.
What's happening? Whoa, Louie.
You did that? I did.
I mean to wrap those curtains around her, and then it happened.
Dad, I did it.
Louie! Now, son, you shouldn't have done that to Michelle.
But bless you.
Louie, get me out of these now.
Yes, my dad saw me be an awesome ghost.
Victory dance.
Louie.
Louie.
"As the swamp witch got closer, the girls could hear her footsteps on the stairs".
"Her anguished cries got louder.
Until finally she screamed".
Where is he? Where's the little one? The swamp witch! She's come for us! Take Emma! So I just came from practice.
Yikes, Sweetie.
Was it rough? I'm sorry I chased away all your friends.
Don't be sorry.
Everybody loved it.
They're calling it the best sleepover ever.
A few parents have some questions for you.
But the haunted house theme was a hit.
Check it out.
I'm an official Inchworm.
Nice.
You deserve it.
Thanks.
I couldn't have done it without you.
And I really am glad you came to my sleepover.
Me too.
See, and you thought living with ghosts would be weird.
Yeah.
What was I thinking? Dad's got you on cleaning duty, huh? Maybe he'll think twice before tying me up with curtains.
You should have seen your face.
Your pretty, pretty face.
Frankie, there you are.
So I've been thinking, and I've decided to give you the bigger room.
- Really? - You truly deserve it.
Yes! I had a feeling you'd come to your senses and do the right thing.
I'm proud of you.
That room still reeks of garlic dip, doesn't it? Oh, yeah.
That smell's never coming out.
Home, home on the range! Where the I think I'm getting even better.
Smile, everybody.
She has no idea we can't hear her.
Now that's my kind of ghosting.
