- There she is.
- [CECE] Hi!
I want you to have a really fun,
and also safe, summer out here.
[YELLS, GRUNTS]
Do not come down here!
How did I get here?
[ALEX] Previously on Goosebumps
Heard anything about a
break-in at the old fort?
Someone vandalized the transformer.
I just got out of juvie.
Do you think that I'm stupid enough
to do something like that?
I don't want to go back.
I finally got the hoodie back
from the police, and I found
this residual organic matter on it.
That substance created the plant bulb.
[PATTI OVER COMPUTER] It's
not a plant. It's an animal.
- Herbivore?
- Carnivore.
[SCREAMS, GRUNTS]
Trey!
- [SNARLS]
- [SCREAMS]

[ALEX SIGHS] Okay, we get it.
Holy crap, you got M-80s?
This can blow a finger off.
[CHUCKLES] Yo. Chicken? Twenty bucks?
[SONG CONTINUES]
- Murph, don't do this.
- Now, the weird thing is,
when your finger first goes
[BOY CHUCKLES]
you don't feel it.
This is, like, not
funny or safe in any way.
Meanwhile, your hand

Thank you.
[OFFICER] Of course, no problem.
[EXHALES] Mom, please.
You have to get me out of this.
- This This isn't my fault.

- [ALEX] I can explain.
- Okay. Good. So, explai
[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]
That's what I thought.
- No, but Mom, I
- No, I'm not your mother right now.
I am a detective. This is a crime scene,
and you are the prime suspect.
Officer Morales is going to
be over here to talk to you.
I would advise you just
to not say anything.
[SLOW-TEMPO DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
Wait, but but you believe me

[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
[THEME MUSIC CONCLUDES]
- [ANTHONY] Hey.
- Hi.
- Hey, have you seen Trey?
- Uh
[SNARLS, ROARS]
No, why would I have seen Trey?
Have you seen Trey?
Uh No, that's why I'm asking you.
I think he broke into
the basement last night.
Broke out more like it.
Yeah, that too.
- [CECE] Hey, guys. What's up?
- [ANTHONY] Hey, have you seen Trey?
No, I haven't seen Trey.
Why would I have seen him?
I don't know, uh Kids see kids.
Trey broke into the basement last night.
- Why?
- I smashed his car window.
Okay, same question,
different subject. Why?
I I got to go. I promised
Frankie I'd meet her.
Oh. Of course the reason
you're up so early is a girl.
Yeah.
What's going on with him?
I don't know. Nothing.
Cec
if something's up with him,
you you need to tell me,
okay? I'm his dad.
Um, I mean, maybe you should ask Devin?
So, something is up
with him? Cec, come on.
Do I need to be worried?
[SIGHS] Okay, look, I
I didn't tell you this,
but he did say his memory's
been a little fuzzy.
- Fuzzy?
- Yeah, and he also said the other night
he thought he fell into the sewer,
or was pulled down by something, and
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
What? When? When
Why didn't he tell me this?
[EXHALES] Because he
didn't want to scare you.
He didn't want you to think
what was happening to Grandma
was happening to him.
What? That That's not even possible.
Yeah, I know.
Did Did Devin go in the basement?
I mean, when the door was open?
What? What are you talking about?
- Cece, just tell me.
- What? No B [EXHALES]
Of course, I'm I'm
trying to tell you something
serious about Devin,
and all you care about
is if he went into the
basement and messed up
- your science fair experiments.
- No, no, that's not it.
No one goes in the basement.
Except for Trey, apparently.
Anyways, I gotta go.
Have a good 'un Have
a good Have a good day.
[TERESA] The Department of Probation
has issued you this ankle bracelet
as an electronic tagging device.
You must sign here to agree
to the terms and conditions.
Now, does it also track my steps?
Ha ha.
[CLEARS THROAT]
[PHONE RINGS]
[SIGHS] It's my daughter. I'm sorry.
You know, I'll be the only kid at
the precinct Fourth of July barbecue
with one of those bad boys.
Whose fault do you think that is?
You know, you might want to think
a little bit harder before
asking that question, Mom.
[EXHALES] Sorry.
Oh, working mom here, too. Same boat.
Let's hope not.
[INHALES] Okay.
Oh, yes.
Alex's future success is
going to be a family effort.
[ANKLE MONITOR BEEPING]
Okay. Follow the rules,
continue your community service,
and keep to your curfew, 10:00 p.m.,
or you will find yourself
back in front of a judge,
and in all likelihood, back in custody.
Okay? That's it.
[INHALES DEEPLY] I'll walk you out.
Thank you so much for coming, Teresa.
[PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]
[GRUNTS]
Where you going?
Bodies to bury.
- Community service.
- Alex, if you don't take this seriously,
- I can't help you.
- Well, you didn't help me
in the first place,
so that's nothing new.
- [EXHALES HEAVILY]
- [PENSIVE MUSIC CONCLUDES]
Hey, Murph! Murph!
Hey, where do you think you're going?
I just need to talk to that guy.
Please, he he's the reason
- I went to juvie.
- Hey, take one more step
and I will happily send you back.
[SIGHS]
[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING,
LONAS "COMPROMISING"]
Bye, thank you. Have a great day.
[SIGHS] My God.
I murdered my boyfriend.
No, you didn't. No way. Look
No, you didn't. That wasn't Trey.
That was a a monster
that kind of looked like Trey that
had Trey's same taste in jewelry.
How are you so calm about this?
Okay, we're talking about a monster.
- Right.
- A real monster.
That is not a normal thing.
Okay, I know. But, like, a lot of things
have been happening that are not normal.
You know, I remember
I Something dragged me
into the sewer the other night.
What? What What thing?
I don't know. I only
remember bits and pieces
of, like, vines strangling me.
You know, it was kind
of like it was like
a monster version
of the plants in my dad's basement.
[ANTHONY] I called you
about this hours ago.
Yeah, well, there's other
stuff happening in Brooklyn
that is equally as
important as your basement.
I doubt that.
How do you know Trey did this?
I'm no detective, but, uh
Why would Trey leave his clothes?
Who knows? Why Why
do kids do anything?
Maybe it's some TikTok challenge.
A TikTok challenge?
Where you vandalize someone's basement
and then leave your clothes as evidence?
I don't Uh
Maybe it was some kind
of retaliation. Whatever!
Retaliation? Retaliation for what?
I kind of smashed his car window.
Anthony!
Look, he was blocking my driveway again.
Oh, well then that's a logical solution.
Thank Thank you, okay.
Why would you do that?
I asked you not to mess with him.
Wait a minute, so this
this is all all my fault?
Look, Trey stole something
very valuable from me
and I need it back.
What could be more
valuable than your laptop,
- than all your lab equipment?
- My research.
And he doesn't realize how
unstable and fragile it is.
Okay, well, the non-criminal
solution would be
- to file a police report.
- No
Would you like to file a police report?
No, no. I I just
want my research back
as soon as possible, okay?
Look, I've never asked you for anything.
Okay, let's go find Trey.
[JEN] Hey, Joe!
Got a sec?
Oh, good. I was going to
call you about that guy.
He's a menace. He looks
all normal in plaid
when in fact he's just full of rage.
Hey, Trey was trespassing, okay?
For like the millionth time.
Scariest kind of guy
is a normal-looking angry
dude like Jeffrey Dahmer.
[ANTHONY] Oh, so now,
I'm Jeffrey Dahmer?
Are you seriously comparing
me to Jeffrey Dahmer?
I don't know. Maybe.
I don't know what's going on
in that normal looking head.
- Yeah
- Anthony, let me handle this.
Look, I'm going to
show you. Look at this.
Look what this monster did to my car.
Oh. I guess Trey already fixed her.
Great. That is one problem solved.
Now, I need to talk
to Trey. Is he around?
- No.
- He's covering for him.
- Anthony.
- No, no. No.
Trey stole something from me.
Is Trey here? And remember, I'm a cop.
You are currently talking
to a police officer,
even though we went to
kindergarten together.
He's not here yet.
Takes Frankie to work then hits the gym.
Benching two hundred.
- Pretty impressive stuff.
- How is that relevant?
Okay, it's not a big
deal, Joe. Just call Trey.
Voicemail
I'll try Frankie
Hey, Frankie. You seen
Trey? He's not at work.
Okay. Let me know if you do.
She hasn't seen him since yesterday.
Now, I'm starting to get worried.
- What you do with him?
- I ate him.
- What?
- I ate him.
- Yep.
- All right. We're gonna go home.
- You serious?
- Delicious.
- You see him? Rage!
- Enough. All right, the two of yous!
When you're done with that,
move the Olds onto the street
I'm going to go out and look for Trey.
Hey. What's up? Why'd you text?
Could I borrow your
scooter for a few hours?
Oh, uh, let me think about that. No.
Come on, CJ. This is really important.
[EXHALES] The scooter is my livelihood.
How do I even know
you'd return it to me?
What is that supposed to mean? Huh?
W Well, you're an ex-con.
You could sell it for parts.
An ex-con? Really?
- Yeah. No.
- I I was jo [CHUCKLES] Okay.
Screw it.
[EXHALES]
[ENGINE STARTS]
Cece!
What are you doing in Trey's car?
Uh, driving. He's letting me borrow it.
What are you doing today?
I am heading into the city.
I have to present my con argument
against free speech at debate camp.
Nice, fascist. Ditch it.
That's funny. We can't all be bad girls.
I'm gonna assume that you mean bad girls
in a hot way and not a derogatory way.
One should never assume.
Mm, cute. Look, I need
your help with something.
[SCOFFS] Told you. I'm
heading to debate camp.
[EXHALES] Not today.
Excuse me?
I really don't want to
have to say anything.
Say anything about what?
You boosting that lip
gloss at the pharmacy.
Nice try, but no one's
gonna believe you over me.
Yeah, they might not,
but they'll believe this.
[WOMAN ON VIDEO] No, I'm going live!
All right, hop in.
Has anyone ever told you that you suck?
Oh, yeah. Every hour of every day.

Trick, I said what I said
I'd rather be famous instead ♪
I let all that get to my head I
don't care, I paint the town red ♪
Trick, I said what I said
[CECE] Just so you
know, this is extortion.
Yeah, it's a little bit extortion-y.
But, hon honestly,
it's like no big deal.
I just need you to go in
there and then ask the guy
behind the counter
where his buddy Murph is.
Okay, and why can't you do this?
Because Murph doesn't want to talk
to me and all his buddies know it.
Okay.
Well, I'm not gonna do that.
I think you're a little bit
confused on how extortion works.
No. No, I'm not. I just
have new information.
You see, on our drive over here,
I did a little research on Google
- on the old phone here, and
- Oh, wow!
guess what I found out?
Found out that if you're on probation
and you get reported for anything,
like stealing a car, for instance,
you go right back inside.
And there's even this
little nifty anonymous number
that you can call to report someone.
I borrowed the car.
You might want to workshop
that before the police come.
Don't, no, don't, don't.
Please, just I just need you
to do this one thing for me, okay?
I'm on hold. There's
15 callers ahead of me.
That's how long you have to explain.
Everyone thinks I started
this big fire last year,
all right? And that's
why I went to juvie.
But I didn't do it.
Why do they think you did it, then?
Well, I mean, I've dabbled
in, like, some light criming,
- some truancy, and vandalism, and larceny.
- Oh, okay.
- Yeah.
- Right.
And, um, one time, I may have rolled
a whole vending machine
off the end of a pier
- to impress a girl.
- [LAUGHS]
Okay, well, did it did
it at least impress her?
Weirdly, yeah. [CHUCKLES]
Yeah, it did a little bit.
Burning down a building is
not on my essentials playlist.
I went to juvie for
something I didn't do.
Okay. I I'm not saying I believe you,
but if you didn't burn a
house down, then who did?
Murph. Murph.
And, look, I I just
need you to help me find out
where he is so I can get him to confess.
Why didn't you just tell
the police that he did it?
No. I'm not a snitch.
O Okay, so your your plan
is to try to get him to confess?
Yeah. [EXHALES]
I mean, why? You've
already served the time.
I don't want my mom to
think I'm a loser criminal.
You know, you really should
have just started with that.

[JEN] Anthony, we are, but
we have to take a statement.
Trey broke into your
house. Now, he's missing.
Yeah, a kid's missing,
and his clothes are all
that's left of him.
Sound familiar?
Oh, come on. Don't even go there.
This is not the same thing.
No, you're right. Trey's not family.
We both lost someone that night.
Yeah, only only it
wasn't my fault, was it?
I loved Matty.
He was my boyfriend.
Yeah, your high school
boyfriend for six months.
He was my brother.
Okay. This is not the time or the place
- to have this conversation.
- You know what?
You're the one who brought
me in for questioning,
and and I'm the victim here.
Except that you still haven't
told me exactly what Trey took.
I don't know if he took it or or
You wouldn't understand.
Right. Because I'm just a dumb cop.
Can I go now?
[OFFICER MORALES] Hey, I
just got a call from Joe Jr.
He hasn't heard from Trey,
but, uh, Trey's car's gone.
Okay, good. I'm gonna go track him down,
- put an APB on him.
- Yeah, you got it, boss.
Don't call me boss.
Okay, Jen.
Do not call me Jen, either.
I'mma just call you.
- Oh, my God.
- Anytime?
What is wrong with you?
[DEVIN] Uh, Dad?
No? Okay, nobody's here. Come on.
Whoa! Uh
Devin, I don't know if
I want to be down here.
We just got to take a look around,
and and and we're going to go.
No. That's where I fell.
Okay, hey, hey, hey.
See, we just have to figure out
what's been happening here, okay?
And then we're going to go.
[SIGHS] Okay.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
Devin fell into the sewer.
[SIGHS]
[DEVIN] What is all this stuff?
Can we just go, please?
Yeah, let's get out of here.
Hey, come, come, come, come, come.
[GASPS]
[MUSIC CONTINUES]
[ANTHONY] I think the organic
matter from Matty's hoodie
is the cause of everything.
The vines that grew
from that substance, they
traveled further than
than was known to me,
causing unknown damage.
I'm going to sample
the vine from the sewer.
[MUSIC CONTINUES]
Wait a minute. That's
This is the exact same
viscous substance that
that's in the freezer.

The guy in the scrubs?

But, uh, there's no trace of the car.
And there's no shattered glass.
There's no paint on the pole.
There's not even a hubcap.
