[chicken clucks]
Human wrecking ball!
[laughs]
[Cricket]
Human wrecking ball!
Why.
-[laughs]
-Good job, brother!
Thank you!
[gasps] Tilly, look!
It's the photo album
from when
we were growin' up
on the farm!
I didn't know we still had this!
[Cricket gasps]
Oh, my gosh!
It's cousin Jilly!
Oh man, she and I
used to be
thick as thieves
back in the day!
Wonder whatever
happened to her
Cricket,
would you excuse me?
I need to have a word
with Saxon alone.
Sounds good, I'll be here.
Basking in memories!
[nervous laugh]
Okay
Saxon, I have to tell you
a little secret
[Tilly] Back when Cricket
and I were young and tiny,
we lived out in the country.
I was as happy as a clam!
But I began to suspect
Cricket was growing bored.
I'm bored. I'm bored. I'm bored. I'm
bored. I'm bored
[Tilly] That's when
I first got the idea
If Cricket couldn't find
a new friend,
I'd just have to make him one.
-And on that day, a new kid was born.
-[goat bleats]
Hey.
The name's Jilly.
-[gasps]
-[Tilly] Cricket bought it right away.
And he was overjoyed
to meet
such a unique
and different person!
Overnight, Cousin Jilly became
the cool kid on the farm.
She was daring,
took big risks,
and always knew what to say.
[cat meows]
Looks to me like the cat's out of the bag.
Did you just
have that planned?!
[Tilly] Jilly taught Cricket
every secret she knew
about the art of being cool.
[gasps] Wow!
[Tilly] Whenever
Jilly stopped by,
she and Cricket
were inseparable
[sighs]
How did he never
realize Jilly was me?!
Hey, Cricket!
I have something
to tell you.
[Cricket]
There you are!
I just couldn't stop thinkin'
about how cool it would be
to see Jilly again
So I'm invitin' her
to come visit us! Whoo!
So anyway,
is "Dearest Cousin," too formal
-Or should I go with "Salutations"?
-Uh, wha--
Mrgh-!
I couldn't tell him,
Saxon.
You saw how happy
Jilly makes Cricket!
I know, it's technically
keepin' up a lie,
but one little visit
couldn't hurt
I just hope I've
still got it in me.
[high-tempo music
and mystical sounds]
Come to me!
Jilly!
[woman]
Same it's the same.
[pig oinks]
Heh heh. Still got it.
[humming]
Hello, Gramma!
Nancy's here!
Hey, wanna soda?
-I'm gonna get a soda.
-I'm good, Nancy. Thanks.
Look at her.
Kickin' her boots around
and actin' like
she owns the place!
Oh, Ma, she's fine.
Hey! You need to
buy more soda.
There's only two left.
[gulps and grunts]
Woo-hoo!
-[groans]
-[knocking on door]
I got it!
'Sup, cuz!
[gasps]
C-C-C-C-C-Cousin Jilly!?
[gasps] Jilly, Jilly, Jilly,
Jilly, Jilly, Jilly, Jilly!
We were just talking about you!
-I know.
-You do?
My cousin senses
were tingling.
-They were?!
-How 'bout we throw it back
and play some of our
favorite country games?
Yessss!!!
All aboard the Cool Train.
Choo-choo-choo.
Hey, Tilly! Jilly's here!
We'll be outside!
Barry! Barry! B-B-Barry!
Kramo! Don't you know
how to knock?
Heh. Typical Kramo.
Hello, Alice!
[chomps]
Why did I put
my boots back on?!
Just one of those days.
[grunts]
-Borge is here!
-Borge!
Ah! That's it!
You're gettin'
too comfortable, Nancy!
This ain't your home.
You are a guest in my house!
Excuse me?! I'm not a guest!
You don't live here,
and you sure as heck
don't do any chores!
So yes, you're a guest!
Well, if I'm a guest,
that makes you the host.
And a good host takes care
of her guest, am I right?
And this guest
wants some tea.
Bah, gah, agh, uh--
Dangit, I got wrecked.
Wa-pow! Pow pow pow pow!
Kick!
Good ol' karat- hay!
You were always
good with puns!
Need help defeating
your hay-bale ninjas?
Oh, no, I don't need violence.
I peer-pressured the hay ninjas
into self-destructive behavior.
They dropped out of school
to start a rock n' roll band.
Of course, you did!
So cool!
We gotta show Tilly!
Hey, where is she, anyway?
Tilly! Tilly,
come play with us!
-Hey, Cricket, I'm here!
-Tilly!
You'll never believe
who came to visit!
Wait, where'd Jilly go?
I just passed her in the house.
She's getting a snack.
She said you were playing
"dank" games?
Yes! You gotta
come play with us!
Uh okay.
Limbo, limbo, limbo!
Limbo, limbo, limbo! ♪
Jilly, you're back!
[laughing]
-Ah-choo!
-[gasps]
Tilly, you're back! Ow!
Aaaaah
[Cricket] Ahh!
Aaah!
-Push me, Jilly!
-[grunts]
-Push me, Tilly!
-[grunts]
-[Tilly pants]
-This is the best day ever!
Self care. Oh, yeah.
-Your tea.
-Thank you!
[sipping noises]
[blows raspberry]
Oh, dear. It's too cold!
Would you be a good host
and heat it up for me?
-[grumbles]
-[kette whistle sound]
Much better.
I don't know
what to do, Saxon!
I don't know how much longer
I can keep up this secret!
Don't judge me!
I know lying
to Cricket is wrong,
but he'd be heartbroken
if he found out
Jilly isn't real.
I'm doing this
to make him happy!
What do you mean "this isn't the real
reason I'm doing this"?!
[Cricket] Tilly!
Tilly, you in there?!
Just a second!
[grunts]
I'm takin' a nap!
[Cricket]
Oh, good idea!
Always nice to get in
a soothing, relaxing nap.
-Takin' a little me time!
-[grunts]
[Cricket] All right,
I'll get out of your hair!
I'll talk to you
later, Tilly!
-[panting]
-Jilly! There you are!
Tilly's just takin' a nap.
Best not to disturb her.
Coolio. Let's, uh
Let's get back
to playing outside.
All aboard the Cool Train!
Choo-choo!
You know, it's weird
You two never really
play together.
Yes we do!
Oh, I see what's going on here.
All these years,
I never realized the truth
Even though it was
right in front of my face!
You two are never
together because
Y'all don't get along!
Yes.
I won't stand for this.
You two are family!
It's my responsibility
to fix this.
Wake up, Tilly,
Jilly's here!
Now, no one's leaving here until
you put aside your differences
and Work. It. Out.
-Mm-mm!
-[groans]
Uh, Tilly?!
[grunts]
Hey, wake up!
I heard you don't like me!
Whoa-oh!
-No I don't!
-I knew it!
And the thing that
I don't like is that-- Ooh!
Let me start.
We are two people.
Two very different people!
It's like you're a totally
different, separate person!
Oh, boy!
Who do I root for?!
-[grunts]
-[glass clinks]
Drama!
[gasps] There they are!
They're equally matched!
You always chew with your mouth open
and I'm sick of it!
Well, you talk in your sleep!
Yeah, because
I'm havin' nightmares
about your chewin'!
These things distinguish us!
Well, that settles it!
We're just not meant to be
in the same room together!
I guess you'll just
have to go your way,
and I'll go mine!
What? No! No!
We'll just never see
each other again!
-Fine!
-Fine!
[screaming] Stop!
You're both cool people
with different strengths
and weaknesses!
Can't you acknowledge
one another with a hug?!
-Uh, actually, no we can't, because
-Because
I'm not leaving till
you show each other you--
Uh, what am I?
What am I seeing?
What?
Okay, what is--?
What you're seein',
Cricket
Is that Jilly ain't real.
It's been me
the whole time.
-Hey, Jilly!
-No! Watch closely.
Oh, my gosh!
No, Tilly is But
Jilly is Gah!
-[grunts]
-[voices] Tilly Jilly
You lied to me
this whole time?!
Yeah, but it was
pretty obvious.
I'm sorry, Cricket.
Cool cool, just giving
my brain a second
to process the fact
that Jilly was never real.
[sobs and cries]
Oh, no.
[muttering]
Your cookies
Thank you, Madam Host.
But sadly, my arms
are too heavy from all this
old jewelry you've given me.
Would you be a dear
and feed me one of them?
Aaah
[screams]
And that'll do it!
Bake your own cookies, woman!
Isn't that forbidden?
Because I'm a guest?
All right, fine!
I suppose you're not just
a guest in this home.
Your the mother of my grandkids,
and I suppose that
means you're
A member of this family
However! Could ya knock
once in a while?!
-And not kick your boots everywhere?
-Fair point.
I'll do better about being more
respectful of your home. Deal?
Deal. Just don't track any mud
if you wanna keep that hand.
[Cricket sighs]
Goodbye, Jilly.
-Hey, Cricket.
-Oh. It's you.
Got another new character
to trick me with?
Maybe Willy or Millie?
Look, I'm real sorry for
deceiving you for so long.
But you gotta understand,
the whole reason I came up
with Jilly was for your sake!
Hmph. Sounds like just
another one of your lies.
You're right. It is a lie.
I don't think I brought back
Jilly just for you.
All those adventures
we used to have?
I miss 'em, too.
So I wanted to keep it going
while you still believed
she was real.
Well, maybe
she is real.
-She's a part of you, ain't she?
-I guess so.
In fact, I still have that
letter I wrote to Jilly today.
You think I could
read it to her?
Let's blow it up, bruh.
[clears throat]
"Dear, Cousin Jilly.
Hello. This is
your cousin, Cricket.
[Cricket] I'm currently
living in Big City,
where the air is stinky,
and they carry their dogs
around in purses.
How are things
back in the country?
Tilly and I were talking
about you today,
and it brought back memories
of all the adventures
we had when we were little.
I believe those
adventures shaped me
into the well-molded
gentleman I am today!
We'd love to have you
visit sometime!
Just knock first,
or Gramma will try to bite you.
But if you're not able to,
I understand.
Just write me back
and let me know you're good.
No matter what, thanks for
makin' my life back then
so full of great memories.
Love, your city-slicker cousin,
Cricket Green."
-[Gloria] Paris.
-[Greens] Woo-hoo!
-[Greens] Nicely done. Great job!
-Guys!
I've barely started
the presentation.
[Bill] Sorry, Gloria!
[clears throat] Paris.
City of love!
-City of hunchbacks.
-Hey!
-City of cafés!
Hello. I'm Gloria Sato.
And ever since
I moved to Big City,
I've had one big dream.
To open my own Parisian café.
Now, you're probably wondering,
what qualifies me
to run a French café?
I was wondering that, yes.
Recently, I have worked
many, many jobs.
But none have
prepared me for this
more than working as the
manager of Big Coffee.
I prepped orders,
took care of the store,
and supervised employees!
Wow! You did all that?!
I have the passion, experience,
and now opportunity
to make my dream
finally come true.
Now I say to you,
bankers of Big City,
Will you give me a loan
so I can open my new café?
Now you can clap.
[applause and cheers]
Good luck! The bankers
will see right through you!
Starting a business takes grit,
and you just don't have it!
Now, that's just not true!
I know Gloria
can get that loan.
We're here for you, Gloria.
We'll help however we can!
Thanks, guys!
I appreciate you saying that.
You have been like
a second set of parents to me.
I won't let you down!
We know you won't!
All right!
It's time for Gloria
to achieve her dreams!
[hums]
[cries]
[moans]
-[crying in distance]
-Hark!
Are those the moaning cries
of a wounded animal?
Oh, it's just Gloria.
Gloria, what happened?
Where's your loan?
Are you holding it?
What is a loan?
No, Cricket,
it--it didn't work out.
I won't be able to
rent a café space.
My dream is officially dead!
Aw, don't worry about it,
things come and go.
I'm sure you'll find another
lifelong dream in no time!
I wasn't asking for much!
All I needed
was an empty space
I could run a small coffee
joint out of! [grunts]
[groans] Huh.
They must have forgotten
to lock this place up
Wow! The ol' Big Coffee space
Yeah. A lotta
good memories here.
Man, all this place needs
is a good cleaning,
maybe some
chairs and tables
could be good as new!
Cricket, that's it!
-Wait, what's it?
-This is it!
This is my cafê!
The location is great!
The customers wouldn't know if I was
illegally renting the space or not
And we can work with
the run-down look as a
French Revolutionary theme.
With all the business
we'll get, in a few days,
I could make enough money
that I wouldn't even need a loan!
[laughs]
And best of all,
your mom and dad
won't ever have to know
that I failed in
the first place.
ou guys in?
Teaming up to run
a secret underground café?
Oh, we're in.
Guess it's time to open up!
We need to think of a way
to bring customers in
without too many
people noticing.
Leave that to us!
Grabbing people's attention
is my whole thing!
And Tilly's great
at keeping secrets.
Nobody's getting in without
la phrase secréte!
All right then! Get out there,
you little delinquents!
People of Big City!
Aren't you tired
of the same old coffee?
Don't you want your bean juice
experience to be more
-exclusive?
-I'd like that!
Then you're in luck,
my thirsty friends!
Just follow my instructions,
and keep it hush-hush.
Huh. That little boy said
to come back here
-Halt!
-[gasp]
Password, s'il vous plaît.
The purple dove
flies at midnight.
You are free to enter,
mes enfants!
Ooh! Culture.
-Need a refill?
-Please!
Okay, this is the best café
in Big City, Terry.
-Gloria!
-Ahh!
Just running
a lil perimeter check.
-How's it all goin'?
-Pretty good, actually!
If we can keep this going
for a few more days,
I think I'll be able to
rent this place for real!
We just need to make sure
nothing unexpected happens.
What's going on in here?!
-We heard noises!
-Where's the squatters?!
Wait! What is all this?
Guys, it's okay!
This is my café!
You got the loan!
You're open already?
Isn't it obvious?
The rustic atmosphere,
the accordion music
The front door
that should be locked!
This doesn't look anything
like the café in your presentation!
Why is everything
so old and drabby?
Weren't you able to buy some
new things with your loan?
Oh, no, it's exactly
what I wanted!
Same as I said before!
You don't got
the grit for this.
Now, don't listen to her.
Oh! I was gonna save this
for when you were open,
but seeing as that's now
-Where's he going?
-[hammering]
Well, whaddya think?
[gasps] Oh, my gosh!
It's so eye-catching!
Yup! Now everyone in Big City
will know you're here!
Yes That is true.
Hey, why don't you guys
head inside
and I'll get you
some menus?
No thanks.
You call this a business?!
This whole operation will
collapse in a day!
Mark my wor-- [muffled]
What she means to say is,
we're so proud of you
and you're doing great.
Nice work, big shot!
Thank you!
Cricket.
-Deal with the sign.
-Affirmative.
[Officer Keys yawning]
Hour one of my shift
and I'm already sleepy.
Huh? A new cafe?
A medium cup of joe
would be perfect
for this tall drink of water!
[imitates car sounds]
All right!
You're coming with me,
sign!
Coffee, coffee
For my tummy ♪
Yum, yum, yum, yummy ♪
Hatchia matchiee!
I'll have a "mac and roon."
[Cricket] Gloria! Gloria!
-We got a Code Keys!
-"Code Keys"? [grunts]
Gloria!
I'm so sorry.
But the cool thing now for
a cafe is to not have a sign!
Well, if you say so
-[door rattles]
-[Gloria and Cricket] Oh, no!
Huh. This place is locked.
And I could've sworn
there was a sign here.
What a mystery.
A mystery too great
for even Officer Keys!
Luckily, Detective Keys
is on the case!
A-ha! A clue!
Time to follow up
with this "Don and Dawn"
Gloria, aren't you gonna
let that customer in?
No, no, no, this is all
a part of my theme!
The door chains rattling
means its time for, uh
Everyone to listen up!
Pay close attention as your
participation is mandatory!
Now why'd you
bring us down to
one of our empty buildings?
We're about to blow the lid
off the biggest mystery
this town has ever seen!
Ugh! We got out of
our jammies for this!
Open sesame! Wha?!
G-g-g-g-ghost café?!
Oh, my goodness!
This is embarrassing!
You two were right.
A few spectral nuisances,
but nothing out of the ordinary.
[Don and Dawn]
Get us out of here!
Ha! You two got
cuddly all of a sudden!
[sniveling]
Hmm, there's still something
off about that place.
Phew!
All right, everybody,
the interactive
ghost experience is over!
Now I hope we all understand
what it must have felt like
to be a ghost
in the French Revolution
I'm just gonna say it
This is a strange way
to run a café, right?
Yes! I can't help
but feel like
Gloria just doesn't know
what she's doing!
-Told ya.
-[man] Boy, howdy!
I'd sure love a nice latte
before I hit up
the cell phone store!
Say, fellas,
do you know where
a hipster like me
could find one?
You see? This is what I mean!
We gotta help Gloria!
Well, my good hipster,
you've come to
the right place.
Hey there, Gloria!
We found you a new customer!
Ugh! Guys!
Stop using
the front door!
Gloria, we're getting
a little concerned.
All of this secrecy
How are customers supposed to
discover your café?
It's fine! This is the way
I wanna do things!
You. You wanted
coffee, right?
-Oh! Yes!
-It's nothing personal, shug!
We're just trying to give you
a little push
in the right direction!
After all, you worked so hard
to get that loan!
But I didn't get it.
What was that, Gloria?
I said
I didn't get the loan!
What're you talking about?
I tried to get approved
for the loan, but I failed!
I was so worried
about letting you--
no, letting myself down--
that I risked opening
an illegal café
because I thought that maybe
if I succeeded
at this one thing,
it would prove
I'm not a total loss
Gloria
Oh, shug
Well, I'll be.
What a crazy situation!
And it was exactly
what I wanted to hear!
Huh?
-[Nancy] Hmm?
-[Bill] Um?
[all] Officer Keys?!
Yes! Undercover me!
I knew something was off
about this ghost café
But I wasn't quite sure what.
[Keys] We all know spirits love
abandoned buildings.
And they love to drink coffee!
Everything seemed to be
above board.
But that's when it hit me!
If there's one thing
I know about ghosts
It's that they
love saying, "Boo!"
And not a single "Boo"
was heard.
Not even a little one!
You would've gotten away
with it, too, Gloria,
if it hadn't been
for a meddling Keys!
And his partner Officer Cuffy.
Woof. The number of times
I've parked on this street.
Thanks for being
so cooperative, Gloria!
The profits from your
illegal coffee stand
were just about enough
to cover all the fines
for your trespassing!
Safe travels!
Well that could've gone
a lot worse, right?
[all groan]
[Bill]
I'll just drive now.
There you are!
I got some words for you!
I can take a guess.
You were right,
and I don't have
what it takes.
Nice try, but you
need to hear this!
Gramma!
You lied to all the people
who were tryin'
to support ya,
and you ended up
breaking the law!
You couldn't take
no for an answer,
put everything you had
on the line,
and took a huge,
ridiculous risk!
-Kind reminds me of myself.
-Sorry, what?
Well, I probably wouldn't
have gone with the French theme.
Or broken the law,
right, Ma?
Yeah, sure. Yeah.
The point is that
I'm real impressed.
It takes a lot of passion and
cleverness to run a business.
And you've proven you got
the grit of a real Green.
Which is why I wanna
make you an offer.
"Offer"?
I got a bit of money squared
away for my retirement,
and I'd like to use it
to invest in your business!
Plus I can supply you
with some free labor.
[Cricket] Heyyy!
Alice I
Well are ya just gonna
stand there sobbin'
or are ya gonna make a deci--
[muffled]
[Gloria] Thank you
All right, no need
to get mushy now.
Feels good to be
doing things the right way.
And what a great way
to help out Gloria.
"Help Gloria"?
This ain't no charity!
You hear that, missy?
I expect to make all my money
back and more!
Yes, ma'am!
Ahh, working with
Gloria again.
You just don't mess
with a proven formula.
Oh, hey, a new café!
You must be Gloria Green!
No, it's Gloria plus Green.
My name isn't--
Oh, forget it.
I got sweat in my eyes ♪
Lost a bet and got bit
