The Adventures of Superboy (1988) s02e22 Episode Script
The Haunting of Andy McAlister
1
All right, Cindy,
so Wednesday night at 8.
All right,
I'll bring the Clay.
-All right.
-Andy,
hang up the phone,
get the map out,
and tell me where
we are right now.
Okay, bye-bye.
Geez.
Ah.
You know,
that wouldn't happen
if we could
put up the top.
The top was up
when we started
and then you
were driving,
and we got lost three times,
but at least this way
we're lost, but happy.
I got it!
I, I got it!
I see it.
Okay, we got
a ways to go.
It's route 81.
That's route 18, Andy.
Huh?
Whoops, map's
upside down.
Hold on.
Whoa!
That's it, Andy,
get in the back.
Clark, you're
co-pilot now.
I'm not sitting
in the back.
This is my car,
and my uncle
who's letting us stay
at his mansion for free.
Without me you guys would be
spending
another boring
weekend on campus.
If we even
find the place.
Maybe we
should backtrack.
We're not backtracking,
poindexter,
what we need
is a good driver.
Of course, I could
do better it's my car.
Ugh, I can't
believe you, Andy.
You can't
believe me?
I can't
believe you!
-What?
-Let me drive.
-Get out and walk!
-No!
Get out and walk!
That's it.
I'm not
driving anymore.
Listen, Lana, just because you
have a lousy
sense of direction
don't blame it on us.
Me?
I have
a lousy sense--
well I hate
this stupid car.
Stupid car?
This is a Cadillac!
It's the greatest car!
It's an American car!
Oh, well fine.
Guys, we're here.
Clark, we're arguing!
What?
Go around the corner.
Huh.
Well, this is it.
How do you like it?
Golly.
So, what do
you think?
How do
you like it?
This is quite
a house.
It looks like it's
at least 150 years old.
Oh, it is.
It was built
before the civil war
by my Uncle Nathan's dad,
my great-grandfather,
Horatio MccAlister.
He was a Marshall in the old
west.
I never knew your family
had that kind of money.
Well, we used to back
when Horatio founded
the MccAlister
firearms company.
He made quite
a killing.
I knew you were
gonna say that.
Oh, come on,
ease up.
It's a little bit of
the MccAlister family humor.
But what happened
to all the money?
Well, that's
a long story.
Come on,
I'll show you.
It's a weird thing
about Uncle Nate
when his father died
and he passed on the place
he got
kinda paranoid.
He thought the ghosts
of all the bad guys
Horatio killed were gonna come
back and get him.
Ghosts?
Clark, move.
And then
he got weird.
He spent
the last 50 years
and the MccAlister
family fortune
building these strange additions
to the house.
No one
knows why.
Check this out.
Oh, this is great.
This is amazing.
Yeah, well it should be
for what it cost.
He had guys working
in here night and day.
Ha ha.
I love that.
Then the construction crews left
when
they ran
out of money.
Are you sure it
wasn't the ghosts?
Ah, you don't
think that, do ya?
Ah!
Help!
Ah, I forgot
about that one.
I won't.
Andy, this place is
really dangerous.
Why don't we just
check into a hotel, okay?
No, this place is great,
are you kidding?
You haven't seen
anything yet.
Why don't you
just stay close
to the ground level.
What kind of a place
is this?
It's great,
isn't it?
Don't touch that.
There's trap doors
and secret passage ways
all over the place.
You could be
lost forever.
Ah!
You see what I mean?
So, that's your
great-granddad,
Marshall MccAlister?
Yup.
An actual lawman
in the family.
Well, what do
you think, Clark?
Where'd he go?
Oh.
I don't know,
he could be anywhere.
Clark?
Clark!
I'm really worried
about Clark.
Don't worry
about it, Lana.
He'll show up
in a year or two.
Andy, I'm serious.
He, he may be
trapped behind
a wall or something.
Okay.
All right, all right,
all right.
Just don't
get excited.
We'llBacktrack
and we'll find him.
Just let me look
at this real quick.
That is
the MccAlister Carbine.
The original rifle that
my great-grandfather
used to kill
all those bad dudes.
I've been dying to get
my hands on this.
Maybe you shouldn't,
it might be loaded.
What do you think
I am, stupid?
You always check
the rifle, always.
See?
No bullets.
I don't point it
at anybody either.
I know a lot
about this kind of gun.
I still don't think
it's a good idea.
Your uncle had
his reason for not--
Oh come on, Lana.
The guy was senile,
you've seen the house.
Besides what he doesn't know
won't hurt him.
Bang.
How did
that happen?
You saw there weren't
any bullets in it.
I told you not
to play with that thing.
Wait a second.
Something's not
right here.
That gun was
not loaded.
Now what?
Clark!
Get some help!
Hurry!
Right, right!
I'll try
to contact superboy.
Ahh!
He he he.
Ooh.
Ha ha ha.
Hold on!
We've been
waitin' for ya.
It's about time somebody
fired that dang carbine.
I hated livin'
in that ghost world.
It sure feels good
to be out of there,
but I still got me
a hankerin' for revenge.
Don't forget our pals
back in the void.
Remember the deal
we made?
Shoot no!
Pretty soon,
little lady,
all of the folks killed
by Marshall MccAlister
will be free replaced
by real, live folk.
Mm-hm.
And startin' with the son
of the Marshall who
put us in here
in the first place.
Old Nate MccAlister himself.
Ha ha ha.
Now, let's go get Nate
out of that hospital.
Where are we?
I don't know,
but those ghosts
changed places
with us on earth.
I don't understand it.
I fired that crusty,
old gun and
The next thing I know
here we are.
Look at this place.
It's some kind
of strange graveyard.
Very observant.
I just hope
Clark's okay.
Clark called me
from Andy's car phone.
I guess he made it
out of the house.
He's out of the house.
He's driving away in my car
at 100 Miles an hour.
He wouldn't
desert us.
Well, what, what
if he didn't?
What if he's still
in the house
with those ghosts?
They're gonna
get him.
Andy those ghosts are after your
uncle, Nate.
Well, we got--we got
to try and save him.
We got to try
and help him, come on.
Let's try and go
through these doors.
Let's go after him.
Guys, I don't mean to be
alarmist or anything,
but I think we're
the only people
in here
with a pulse.
Dr. Winston Shepard,
please report to ward d.
Ahh!
Nate, we're comin'
for you.
Ha ha ha.
They found me.
Ha ha ha.
How?
How'd you get out?
After all
these years?
After all
my precautions?
Well, you got your
stupid nephew
to thank for that,
old man.
And you'll get
the chance to thank him
up close and personal like real
soon.
You mean Andrew?
What have you
done with him?
Same thing we's fixin'
to do with you, old man.
Go on, get him
outta here.
Well, looky here.
We finally got us
a real live lady.
They won't have
nothin' to do with us.
Get your hands
off of me.
Ha ha ha,
but you will,
won't ya?
Hey, that's enough.
Pretty fancy duds
for a Marshall, feller.
I never saw
such a big badge.
Ha ha ha.
So, you ain't never died
by the gun before, has you?
And who's the girl
with ya?
Listen, listen, there seems to
be a misunderstanding.
We took a wrong turn,
and if you just
wanna show us
the right door we'll--
you ain't
going nowhere.
My powers seem
to be weakened.
This here new Marshall's too
tough for us.
Let's get
outta here.
Get in there
you old coot.
And by the way, gramps, you'll
be the first to go in.
Oh no, they got
Uncle Nathan.
You spent all that
time trying to keep us
locked up
in there.
And then your
stupid nephew
opened the door
for us.
It wasn't all that
fool construction
kept us away.
Nah, this here gun
is the key to the door
that separates
our two dimensions.
Now, we're gonna open it
and put you inside.
Then, we'll gather
up others until
all the living
are there,
and all of us
are here.
They're talking
about putting
more people
in here.
They won't
get the chance
if they do
what I think they'll do.
All right,
get ready, gramps.
You're in for
the last round-up.
Yee-haw!
Oh no!
Ha ha ha!
Are you all right?
Oh, I'm all right,
but I'm awfully sorry
I caused you
all this trouble.
All right.
We got bank jobs
to pull.
Superboy, if you're
gonna do something
do it now!
What in tarnation?
Say your prayers,
you mangy old cat.
All right, let's settle this
once and for all.
Hurry, come on through.
What are you crazy?
They're shooting.
Trust me,
do it.
He's right.
And since you started it, you go
first.
Ahh!
Oh, darn it.
All right!
They're history.
See?
It's workin'.
All right, now you just
hold it right there.
I'm the fastest
gun in the west.
But I'm faster.
I got hit.
No holes.
Andy.
Wake up.
He he he.
Yep.
This boy is a MccAlister
through and through.
Yeah, I guess
he'll be all right.
More ghosts.
No, Andy, I don't think
that's a ghost.
I think I know exactly what that
is.
Ahh, I think
I saw a ghost.
Did Superboy
get here yet?
Yes, Clark,
Superboy got here,
and as usual,
you missed everything.

All right, Cindy,

You can't

I can't
believe you!
-What?
-Let me drive.
-Get out and walk!
-No!
Get out and walk!
That's it.
I'm not
driving anymore.
Listen, Lana, just because you
have a lousy
sense of direction
don't blame it on us.
Me?
I have
a lousy sense--
well I hate
this stupid car.
Stupid car?
This is a Cadillac!
