Goosebumps (1995) s03e11 Episode Script
311 - Perfect School (1)
Viewer, beware.
You're in for a scare.
Goosebumps.
Riley O'Connor.
Riley! Brian was first.
You are next! That peach cobbler looked awful good.
We'll get dessert next time, I promise.
If it wasn't the first time home alone, it wouldn't be a problem.
It would just make me feel better if we don't stay out too late.
Too late? Honey, they've only been alone an hour and a half.
I mean, what could go wrong in an hour and a half? See? Still standing.
Nothing to worry about.
Why are all the lights off? I don't know.
You're next.
You're home early.
You should be congratulating me on my creativity.
Most brothers would have just jumped out of the closet and yelled "Boo.
" Come on, Mom.
You're not really gonna send me away, are you? A little time away from home will do you good.
Are you serious? Did you read the brochure? "The Perfect School.
Why settle for anything less than perfect?" Are they kidding? Come on.
I said I'm sorry a billion times.
No one in this family can take a joke.
What you did went well beyond a joke, Brian.
And it wasn't the first time.
You scared poor Riley to death.
Of course I did.
That's what older brothers do.
Somebody's gotta teach him not to be such a sucker all of his life.
In case I didn't make myself clear before, again, I'm just really sorry.
Good luck, son.
Goodbye, sweetie.
I hope you learn something from this experience.
The only thing I'm gonna learn is how to waste most of my summer vacation.
Welcome to the party, I'm C.
J.
Brian.
What you in for? Being stupid enough to get caught too many times.
At what? Whatever.
Yeah? Me, too.
What's his story? Looks like he belongs in a church, and not on his way to Camp Perfecto.
Name is Joe.
That's all he told me.
I can't believe they're doing this to me.
You 3.
Stand where you are.
This guy looks like a load of laughs.
No talking! No one move until I return.
Look at that kid.
As promised, your perfect boy.
Hello, Mother.
Hello, Father.
He looks perfect.
What do you think he was like when he got here? I said, relinquish all personal items.
Hey, you missed a spot! What is going on here? All I said was that he missed a spot.
Yeah? Now I'm gonna clean it up with your face.
Stop this at once.
You've been warned before, Mr.
Brown.
Your program will be accelerated.
But but he started it.
And I'm finishing it.
Take him away.
No! Gentlemen, your lives, as you know them, are about to change for the better.
Your days of disobedience and troublemaking have come to an end.
From this moment forward, you will do what you are told, when you are told.
Do not speak unless spoken to, do not move unless directed to.
You may not like it, but this is the way we do things here.
Gentlemen, welcome to the Perfect School.
Could the beds in this place be any harder to sleep on? Not so bad.
At least the food is good.
You're talking about this food, right? So what do you think happened to Mr.
Tough Guy? - Who? - From yesterday? The dude with the mop and the attitude problem.
He's not with the rest of them.
I got a bad feeling about this place.
You gonna eat this? What? What do you think they're gonna teach us? Table manners.
He said we're gonna take some sort of aptitude test, you know, "If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be?" That kind of stuff.
You will complete the workbooks I'm handing out.
All questions must be fully answered.
Begin the moment you receive them.
And, no talking.
There must be a million pages here.
Yeah, check out the questions.
"What's your favorite food? "What do you call your parents? What's your first memory?" What kind of test is this? What's your name, son? Check it out.
Looks like Joe found a new friend.
That's good.
Thanks.
You still think it's not so bad? Could be worse.
Yeah? How? They could take away our toothbrushes.
Hello, Brian.
Hey.
I just wanted to apologize for the misunderstanding yesterday.
Please forgive me.
I was quite rude.
Yeah, well, forget about it.
They accelerated my program.
I'm going home today.
Good for you.
Well, it was nice meeting the both of you.
Good luck.
What happened to him? I don't know.
But I'm not letting it happen to me.
Where are you going? Home.
Brian! Brian, wait.
You're gonna get caught.
Who is it? We don't know, sir.
Find him.
Now! I'll take the back gate.
Great.
I want a full lock down of the facility and a door-to-door head count.
Anyone caught outside their room will be severely punished.
Whoever it is may already be gone, sir.
No one's escaped from the Perfect School.
And no one ever will.
This is your headmaster.
Open up.
Accounted for.
Next.
Open the door, this is your headmaster.
Rear door, all clear.
Accounted for.
Next.
Only one left, sir.
Who is it? Brian O'Connor.
This is your headmaster, Mr.
O'Connor.
Open the door.
I said open the door, Mr.
O'Connor.
Open it up.
Give them to me.
I might have known.
Known what, sir? Sorry I took so long.
I thought it would be rude for me to answer the door in my pajamas.
Accounted for.
Good night, Mr.
O'Connor.
I see your escape was a great success.
I'd like to see you try it.
There's an electric fence all around this place.
Guards, search lights.
This isn't a school, it's a prison.
Haven't you read the brochures? Satisfaction guaranteed or your parents' money back? You think they're gonna let you just walk out of here? No.
An escape is gonna have to be planned.
Carefully thought out.
Hey, Waldo, the guardians want you to clean the toilets.
That was you last night, wasn't it? You were the one who tried to escape.
It's cool.
I'm not gonna snitch on you.
Besides, maybe somebody already beat me to it.
So the washrooms are clean.
Yeah, ok.
Joe? I'm not saying yes, I'm not saying no.
But he did get moved to a bigger room this morning.
And he had a bigger serving at breakfast, too.
Maybe your little stunt last night paid off for him.
Your tie is crooked.
That's better.
Thanks.
You scared the heck out of me.
I scared you? What are you doing here? I couldn't sleep I thought maybe we could hang out.
No, no, no.
No, I'm staying in my room, and you'd better get back to yours if you don't wanna get caught.
Why do you say that? Is your little guardian buddy roaming the halls tonight? Good night, Brian.
You better hope I don't get caught, Joe.
'Cause if I do, I might think you had something to do with it.
Good night.
Ward R-D is all clear.
Tissue samples? Weird.
Hello? Mom.
Mom, it's me.
You gotta get me out of here.
Brian? Why are you calling so late? What's wrong? There's a lot of really freaky stuff going on here.
I wanna come home.
You have to come and get me.
Brian, is this another prank? You're only making it harder on yourself.
Mom, there's something wrong here.
There are these voices Hello, Mrs.
O'Connor.
This is the headmaster.
I just want to reassure you that we're doing everything possible to change Brian.
He's a bit of a tough case, but we guarantee he'll be just perfect when you come to pick him up.
Thank you, Mrs.
O'Connor.
Bye-bye.
Your program will be accelerated starting tonight.
Get him out of here.
