The Haunted Hathaways (2013) s01e06 Episode Script

Yay.
I knew he was gonna ask you on a date.
Oh, Sweetie.
There'll be other boys.
Cry it out.
Did the pillow and the couch break up? I thought those two were gonna make it.
Taylor's hoping a new boy at school is going to ask her out, and I wanna make sure I'm ready with the perfect response.
Teen girl drama.
[Chuckles.]
Fun I'll be over here watching the playoffs.
[Snaps fingers, TV turns on.]
Hey.
Yay! Aw.
Yay! Aw.
And that's after practicing.
So I'm in the lunch room, and Warren sits at the very next table.
Ooh, that's a good sign.
So I start talking loudly with my friends about the new movie that I wanna see.
Dropping the movie hint.
Love it.
But then after a few minutes, he just left without saying anything Nothing.
Yes! In your face! [Laughs.]
Woo! Uh, my team just scored.
I'm gonna go watch this at my friend's house.
[Snaps fingers.]
I wish I knew if Warren liked me.
Aw, you said he's only been at school for a few weeks.
Give it time.
[Phone chimes.]
Ooh.
Ah! And uh, while you're waiting How about babysitting Louie and Frankie while I run out and meet this catering client? Mom, I can't deal with children right now.
I'm mid-social crisis.
But I just need someone to watch them for a few hours.
Did somebody call for a responsible babysitter who's certified in CPR and is very strict about the sweets? That's okay, Miles.
No, I know what you're thinking.
You see the bow-tie and you say to yourself "This kid's a rebel".
Well, let me assure you, I can lay down the law.
It's just Louie and Frankie can be tough.
You know who else can be tough? - Me.
- En garde! [Shrieks.]
Bow down or suffer the wrath of my muffin mace.
Your weapon can't penetrate this helmet of sourdough.
Michelle, I can do this.
Okay, listen up.
Miles is gonna watch you two while I run out to meet a client.
I expect you to behave like you would if I were here.
Good luck.
[Spooky rock music.]
If you move into a haunted house.
You gotta try to work things out.
So if you're living with a ghost or three.
You gotta be one big, semi scary family.
Don't know how we ended up this way.
But I guess you could call us The Haunted Hathaways.
The Haunted Hathaways.
The Haunted Hathaways.
The Haunted Hathaways.
[Music.]
Babysitter's here.
So who's up for a little arts and crafts? - Whoa.
- Boom! I got all of that one! I warned you not to throw that knuckle muffin.
Hoo-hoo! Look at this mess! I've only been gone for five minutes.
I can't believe you guys! Let's go.
Batter up! Get it? Because a muffin is made from batter.
You might wanna stand back, Miles.
I'm bringing the heat.
Not on my watch.
Hey, I was about to hit a home bun! Get it? Bun is also part of the bread family.
Nice.
You're on a roll.
I don't get it.
Guys, I'm in charge, and you're going to respect my authority.
[Scoffs.]
I'd like to see you make us.
[Chuckles.]
All right.
Here's your new bat.
Oh, and, uh, here's your new glove.
Time to pitch in.
Ha! Get it? Because you're cleaning.
[Snaps fingers.]
[Struggling.]
This is messed up.
Don't you have the power to do something? Of course I do.
I just really enjoy mopping.
Taylor! I ran all the way from school.
Warren's on his way over here.
Why didn't you just text us? About what? Oh.
There he is.
Don't look at him.
Oh, he's so cute.
Look at him.
I said don't look! You need to find out how he feels.
You're right.
No more games.
Oopsie.
Ow! Oh, my gosh.
I am so sorry.
Thanks.
It's Warren, isn't it? Yeah, and you're Taylor, right? Yeah, so how's it going? - Eh, it could be better.
- That's awesome! I mean, what's wrong? I was sorta wanting to go to the Fleur-de-lis dance tonight, but I don't have anyone to go with.
Okay, so weird, but I love dances.
I was just telling my friends, if you're not fleuring, you're not living.
Direct quote.
Wow, that's great.
So you're a dancer? Oh, I got the moves.
Look, I know it's pretty last minute, but maybe we should go together.
Warren, this is so unexpected, but okay.
All right, cool.
Hey, do you mind if I come by this afternoon and we practice? I don't wanna look too stupid out there.
Of course.
Let's say 3:00.
I live right upstairs.
All right, see you then.
Warren asked me out! [All shriek.]
So did you say yes? [Panting.]
I got back as fast as I could.
Oh, my gosh, what happened here? It's clean.
We've been having a great time.
After straightening up, we treated ourselves with a little supervised fun.
Oh.
Louie, do you have something for Michelle? Hello, Michelle.
I made this lovely figurine out of Pinecones.
I was not expecting this.
They've been busy beavers.
Frankie.
I made a sign out of tongue depressors.
I made one too.
Wow, Miles I have to say Next time I need a babysitter, I won't hesitate.
There's gonna be a next time? I don't see why not.
Nice job.
[Chuckles.]
My pleasure.
[Laughs.]
By the way, you're very low on tongue depressors.
Miles is going to pay.
It's time I give my brother a little taste of what I'm capable of.
Ghost pie.
[Grunts.]
But before I teach him a lesson, I will eat this lovely treat.
- Are you back from your game? - My buddy's cable went out.
All I wanna do is watch the last couple of innings in peace.
Mom, guess what.
Warren's taking me to some formal dance tonight.
[Both shrieking.]
Does the term "playoff" mean anything to people around here? That's wonderful.
Now, I know you've never been to a formal, so if you want your Mom to teach you a few moves Okay, okay [Yelps.]
Just let me know.
So my friend's coming over to rehearse.
Well, he can't see me, so just pretend like I'm not even here.
Great.
Mute.
Not what I meant.
- Hey, Taylor.
- Warren, hi.
- Come on in.
- Thanks for doing this.
At the last one of these things, I completely embarrassed myself.
I'm so lucky I found such a talented partner at the last minute.
That you did, Warren.
That you did.
So how about we begin with something basic? Works for me.
[Velcro tearing.]
Okay, was not expecting that.
So what about we start off with your standard quick step, cross over to a Foxtrot, then segue into a Louisiana Mambo? What? You're right.
If we want a shot at the title, we gotta get creative.
Title? The American Junior Southeast Ballroom Championships.
The A.
J.
S.
B.
C.
So [dance music plays.]
What about your standard quick, quick, turn, touch, step, spin, flex, slide into a fan kick? Fan kick, totally.
Five, six, seven, eight.
This is better than the playoffs.
- Should we try it together? - No.
I mean, I think I see what we're going for.
In my ballroom dancing career, I find it best to keep it fresh.
I guess.
I mean it is only the Louisiana Mambo.
So it's not like we're doing anything too complicated.
Exactly.
All right.
Cool.
See you there.
Sounds like a plan.
Take care now.
Yikes.
We have to be ready for Miles' next babysitting because I am done with arts and crafts.
Me too, except did you kind of like weaving the Pinecone baskets? Because I sure didn't.
Wait.
Here's something.
According to your ghost textbook Under proper conditions, a ghost can blow wind at another ghost, turning him into vapor and rendering him powerless.
I can do that? Yes.
Aren't you supposed to read this for school? I haven't gotten that far.
It's on page three! Great news, kiddos.
Michelle bruised her ankle and had to go to the doctor.
So I'm back in charge.
You know what that means? It's snowflake time! [Both blow raspberries.]
You're right.
We can't do this.
Thank you.
Without safety scissors! I'll be back in a jiffy.
Where's that textbook? Ghost wind, huh? It's time to take down Mr.
Farts and Crafts.
And after that, we can Pinecone weave.
I'm totally kidding.
[Music.]
Miles is coming.
You ready? Once I render him powerless with my almighty ghost wind, we'll trap him in this milk bottle.
All right.
How are my little Snow Angels doing? Before we begin, Louie has a little surprise for you.
Oh.
That was your cue, Captain.
Oh, right.
[Wind blows.]
Whoa! You did it.
I'm stunned.
Me too! I mean I knew I could.
[Squeaky.]
Louie, this is not funny.
That's because you're not up here looking in.
[Both laugh.]
Both: See ya! [Snaps fingers.]
[Scoffs.]
How does he not know something as basic as you can't trap a ghost in a bottle? It's on page four of his textbook.
I had to tell Warren I was a great dancer.
My life is ruined.
Michelle! I thought he was taking me to a normal dance, not some competition.
Oh, the Fleur-de-lis.
It's not just any competition.
It's major.
Major.
So what do I do? Guess you gotta back out.
I can't back out.
Warren would hate me.
Then don't back out? So you want me to horrify Warren and humiliate myself in front of hundreds of people? Is that what you want? Michelle! You know what? [Snaps fingers, TV turns off.]
Maybe I can help.
You? How? I can teach you the Louisiana Mambo.
You're messing with me, right? What? [Dance music.]
[Panting.]
What do you think? I sped it up because you're in a hurry.
Ray, where'd you learn all that? I'm a musician.
You play enough clubs, you pick stuff up.
You really think I can learn the Louisiana Mambo in three hours? I think so.
But it's gonna take focus, hard work, and [Snaps fingers.]
A broom.
Meet your new practice partner.
Be careful.
Don't let him sweep you off your feet.
[Laughs.]
Michelle! I'm home.
Wow.
You really hurt your ankle dancing.
[Nervous laugh.]
Actually that was just a bruise.
I did this showing the doctor how I injured it in the first place.
Anyway, how was the babysitting? I thought they were coming around but, those two are having a hard time accepting me as an authority figure.
Hmm, welcome to my little world.
I could use your help.
I have an idea that will teach them a lesson.
Now wait.
Does it involve using your ghost powers to scare the daylights out of those two young children? - Yes, it does.
- Yay! I'm so in.
It's in the upper deck! Ladies and gentlemen, Louie Preston has made bakery ball history! A young boy with nothing but a dream and a loaf of bread.
Hey, kids.
What's going on? Mom, when did you get home? My ankle's fine.
Thank you for asking.
Anyway, when I got back, it was so quiet I decided to reward you kids with some homemade brownies.
Brownies! Only the best for such well-behaved children.
Where is my favorite babysitter, Miles, anyway? I'm sure he's somewhere.
Wow, how'd you get these so gooey? Great question, Frankie.
I used twice as much milk as I usually do.
In fact I used the whole bottle.
Milk? From that bottle? Milk, from that bottle.
Oh, man! Oh, man! We trapped Miles in that bottle.
And now he's in those brownies.
You ate my brother! No, I [burps.]
Didn't.
Whoa.
There are a lot of people here.
Don't be nervous.
You busted your tail all day to learn those moves.
You got this.
Thanks.
And thanks for all your help.
- I know you wanted to watch your game.
- Nah, this means much more to me.
Plus, my team was getting killed.
Well, I should go find Warren.
You know, in my day, a gentleman picked up his date and escorted her to a dance.
It's no big deal.
Unless, of course, you see him arrive with a completely different girl.
Oh, this boy has struck a nerve.
Ray, let me handle this.
It might not be what it looks like.
Taylor, what are you doing here? This is my date, Heather.
It is what it looks like.
What's going on? So the thing is, Heather's my regular dance partner.
But we didn't think she could make it because her sister was getting married.
Then the wedding got canceled, so lucky me, right? Were you even going to tell me? I saw your friend, and she said she'd tell you.
Taylor! I have an important text message to give you.
Thanks.
Just got it.
Wow, that was fast.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go rescue the frozen bird in the lobby.
That's an ice sculpture.
Don't you think you should've called me yourself? Look, I caught your moves at your house and you're Not good.
I've got a trophy to win.
You all right? I guess it was better to find out he was a jerk earlier rather than later.
Wow.
- Girls are so mature.
- Thanks.
Guys on the other hand, we aren't so mature.
This clown messed with my girl.
I'm gonna mess with him.
And now taking the floor, Warren Vandervelde And Heather Lookenland.
[Slow dance music plays.]
Okay, Warren.
Let's see some moves.
[Snaps fingers.]
What's happening? - Warren, what are you doing? - I don't know! It's a new dance! It's called "the jerk".
Ha! Come here, come here.
Watch me, watch me now.
Do the thing.
Hey! And Elvis.
Woo! Bep-bep-bep-bep-bep.
- Come around.
Huh! - This isn't cool.
Now swim, now swim.
- And get up! - Oh, my.
Hey! Please, no.
[Audience oohs.]
And jazz hands.
That was awesome.
Thanks, Ray.
- You okay? - Yeah.
It still bugs me though.
I did all that practice for nothing.
Well, it doesn't have to be for nothing.
What are you talking about? There are a bunch of guys in here that would love to dance with you.
Maybe you're right.
Shall we? Me? I can think of no better partner.
I'd love to.
You're doing great.
And you were worried about embarrassing yourself.
Ha! Yeah, what was I thinking? Miles! Miles.
[Panting.]
I've searched the whole house.
Miles isn't anywhere.
Brother eater! [Both laughing.]
Oh.
[Snaps fingers.]
Big brother? Can you hear me in there? I can hear you, Louie.
[Both scream.]
Why did you eat me, Frankie? [Both scream.]
I told you, this is so bad.
It's game over, man.
[Sobbing.]
We didn't mean for this to happen.
What can we do? There's nothing that can be done, make a Pinecone figurine in my memory.
Oh no brother, please forgive me.
I'm a bad, bad ghost! You said it, not me.
What just happened? I got you.
You just got schooled baby bro! [Laughing.]
You two need a hard lesson in respecting authority.
Mm-hum, that's my babysitter! Great work Miles.
[Both laughing.]
Hey, that kind of cruel trick can scar a young child for life.
Wish I'd thought of it.
[Music.]
This is awesome! Hey, you want to do something that will really blow their minds? - Lets do it.
- Woo! [Crowd gasps.]
Too far, too far! Too far, too far!
