(GIGGLES)
Oh, oh, veggies veggies
You're so sweet
Oh, there ain't none
that I don't eat, uh-huh ♪
Huh?
(GASPS)
Ugh!
Except for Brussel sprouts!
Ugh! Gross!
Um, hello.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
I'll totally pay for that.
Oh, it's okay.
Uh, they're free.
Really? Oh, all right then.
Uh, hi, I'm Mina.
Uh, hi. Russell.
Uh, hey,
I like the green hair.
You know, I was thinking about
changing up my red sometime.
Oh. (CHUCKLES)
Uh, thanks.
Um, so, again,
sorry about the freak out.
But you gotta admit,
Brussel sprouts are
kinda gross, right?
No, no, no, no, no.
Not at all.
Uh, especially the way
I cook 'em.
Oh, you cook, huh?
Well, sometime you'll
have to come over
-and show me how you make
-Look, I accept.
I'll cook you
dinner tonight.
Okay. I mean, I guess
I kind of do owe you one.
Great. Uh
Let me just give my sprouts
a little water sprits
to keep them fresh
and I'll catch up.
All right, you got it.
(HUMMING)
-Huh?
-(CHUCKLES)
Okay, all set.
Uh, let's get cooking.
(SNORING)
Hey, Harold. Hey, Chester.
This is my friend Russell.
Hi. Uh, pleased to meet you.
(SNIFFS)
Oh, hey, Dad.
-What? Oh! Hey, Mina.
-(MUSIC PLAYING
OVER HEADPHONES)
Dad, this is
my new friend, Russell.
-He's cooking me dinner.
-Huh?
Oh, hey, kid!
Uh, hi, Mr. Min Oh!
I'm sorry.
Psst! (SHOUTS) Hey, Mina!
Your friend, kinda of
an odd ball right?
Well, you two kids have fun.
-(DOOR CLOSES)
-Sorry about that.
-My dad
-Oh, it's fine, Mina.
-He seems very nice.
-Thanks, Russell.
MINA: All right, now
let's get you all set
up in the kitchen.
Okay, so, here's the oven.
Pretty standard stuff.
I've already got it
all pre-heated for you.
(SNIFFING)
-BOTH: Ew!
-Ah!
And any utensils you need,
will be right over
(GASPS) Oh, no!
(WHIMPERS)
Uh, so I think that's
everything you're gonna
need for the
Uh
You know, let's go see
if we can find you
a hairnet. (CHUCKLES)
Psst. Hey, Chester.
Mina's friend,
kind of an odd ball, right?
(ALL GASP) Huh?
Ah! That guy is some sort of
a were-cabbage or something.
He says he wants
to "make Mina dinner."
He's gonna eat her.
And then he's gonna eat me!
(BOTH GASP)
Oh, my gosh!
We gotta stop him!
So, do you go to school
anywhere around here?
Well, it's kind of
complicated.
(GASPS)
Oh, uh, bathroom break.
(THUDDING)
Ew.
Uh, what is happening?
Hello, Russell. Comfortable?
I just wanted to cook
something nice for Mina.
I don't mean her any harm.
Really.
Oh, I believe you, Russell.
I'm on your side.
(CRUNCHING) Doggy biscuit?
I swear I just Ow!
Mmm!
Uh, what is he doing?
(LAUGHS) I'm sorry about that.
This is my associate,
Bunnicula.
He's actually a veggie
sucking vampire bunny,
believe it or not.
Oh, he's a loose cannon
this guy.
And very hungry.
Oh, oops. There he goes again.
Uh-oh.
Oh, okay,
I'll talk, I'll talk!
(SIGHS) Okay,
here's the truth.
See, a long, long time ago,
RUSSELL:
I used to be the pickiest
eater in the world.
Brussel sprouts
were the worst.
When my mother got fed up,
she told me the story of
Old Mother Cupboard,
a witch that puts curses
on little children that
didn't eat their veggies.
I never believed her.
Your mother is
telling the truth, Son.
Isn't that right girls?
ALL: Yes, Papa.
RUSSELL: One night,
that all changed.
(GASPS)
Curse!
RUSSELL:
The stories were all true!
Old Mother Cupboard cursed me
to travel the world
and convince just
one stubborn kid like me
to like Brussel sprouts.
And in the meantime,
I've been slowly changing
from a human boy
to a veggie boy.
And if I can't convince Mina
by midnight tonight,
there will be nothing
left of me anymore,
but a sad little pile
of Brussel sprouts.
So, anyway, that's my story.
(SLURPING)
Hey, you can do this, Russell.
Get in that kitchen and
whip up some Brussel sprouts
that will blow Mina's mind.
That's just the pep talk
I needed to hear.
Huh? (LAUGHS)
I just need to
pull it together.
(CHUCKLES) Just gotta keep
my eyes on the prize.
Yeah, we're gonna
need to fix you up
a bit before dinner.
Okay, first things first,
your roots are
starting to show.
Ah!
Oh.
(HUMMING)
You know, I could provide you
with some great fertilizer.
Sometimes even twice a day.
Harold, what are you doing?
-Russell doesn't need a shave.
-Uh, what's a shave?
(SNORING)
RUSSELL: Mina? Uh, Mina?
Huh? What?
Dinner's ready.
(GASPS) Brussel sprout!
What? Oh, oh, no!
(GASPS) Oh, oh.
-Phew.
-Russell?
Sorry, I must've dozed off.
You were in the bathroom
for a really long time.
Is everything okay?
All right, here they come.
Remember,
we gotta keep Russell,
normal, charming
and persuasive.
Time to set the mood.
Hit it, Bunnicula.
(SLURPING)
(SIGHS)
All right, uh,
so, uh, voila!
MINA: Wow! Russell,
you did all this?
Yeah. I hope
it's worth the wait.
-Well, uh
-(BUNNICULA LAUGHS)
Bon Bon appetit.
(GIGGLES)
Whoa! This is amazing.
So, what are we having?
Uh, I call it,
linguini surprise.
(GASPS) Brussel sprouts!
Back! Back from
whence you came!
Uh, surprise?
Uh, didn't I mention
at the market
that I really don't like
Anyway, it looks great,
especially the linguini.
(CHUCKLES)
Wow, pasta is really good.
(CHUCKLES)
What's your secret?
(CHUCKLES) I don't
Huh? Um
I'm alfredo, I can't tell you.
(CHUCKLES)
Uh, oh! (LAUGHS)
(CHUCKLES)
Oops! Sorry.
Oh! Those little stinkers
are slippery. (CHUCKLES)
Ah! Six minutes to midnight.
(GASPS) That's an oddly
specific cuckoo clock.
(CHUCKLES)
We're losing her!
Get back out there
and remember,
soothing, comfortable.
(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)
Aw, Harold, really? You too?
(CHUCKLES) Look at that.
Harold's got good taste.
You sure you don't want
a little bite?
Oh, fine. You guys win.
(RETCHING)
Ah
RUSSELL: Ah!
(SCREAMS)
(SLURPING)
Oh, darn! Well,
can't eat this now that
it's been on the floor.
(CHUCKLES) Sorry.
Of all the rotten luck, huh?
(CHUCKLES)
-(DINGS)
-Ah!
It's almost midnight.
-(CLOCK TICKS)
-It's midnight.
(GASPS)
-Ah!
-Are you okay, Russell?
Oh, we're too late!
He's gonna be
a 100% veggie in any moment.
We gotta get him
out of here quick
before Mina sees!
Harold, waterfalls!
Huh? Waterfall
Oh, got it.
(WHIMPERS)
Oh, sorry,
Harold needs to be let out.
Be right back.
Sorry, Russell, time to go!
But I still haven't
Ah!
Uh, sorry, Mina, I got to go.
RUSSELL: That's my curfew.
It was very nice meeting you!
Wait, but
Wow, is it really that late?
(SNORING)
-I guess it is.
Dad's sleep-walking again.
-(THUD)
Dad!
(PANTS) There he is.
Oh, no! We're too late!
Oh, look away!
(SLURPS)
There you go, Dad.
Back to bed.
FATHER: All hail America.
What? Another one?
Such a fuss of
such a silly little thing.
Ah, what the heck.
Wow! Brussel sprouts
are actually delicious.
Man, I owe Russell
a big old pile of gratitude.
Aw, poor Russell.
Poor Russell.
Huh?
(LAUGHS)
Ah!
(GASPS)
Woo-hoo!
(BOTH GASP)
Woo-hoo! I can't believe it!
Mina must've come through.
I'm finally free!
Thank you so much
for helping me guys!
Tell Mina to come visit me
again at the farmers' market
next week, okay?
Woo-hoo!
(SNIFFING)
Huh. These old guys
actually look pretty
tasty if you ask me.
(GAGS)
Oh, the horror!
The horror!
