- What's for breakfast? I've got thunder hunger.
Ooh, oatmeal.
- Uh, no, Max, that's not--
- Ugh! What is this?
- Walnuts that Chloe chewed up and spit out.
- Why?
- Because it's fun. [giggles]
- Just for that, I'm taking your toast.
[powers zapping] [laughs]
- CHLOE: [poofs, appears]
Not cool, dude.
[poofs] - Ha, ha, ha.
That is another good sports joke and/or reference.
- Who are you talking to?
- I'm practicing my "sports guy" talk.
Link is coming by with his best friend Quinn from Metroburg,
and I really wanna make a good impression.
- Ah, I'm sure you've got nothin' to worry about.
- Aw, thanks. - Anyone who likes Link
has very low standards in friends.
- Chloe! - [poofing]
[stomps foot] - Ow!
- Thank you! - CHLOE: [poofing]
- FEMALE COMPUTER VOICE: Alert! Alert!
Link and Quinn approaching. - [doorbell rings]
- Hey, guys...huh?
- Phoebe, this is my friend Quinn.
- Hi. [laughs] - Uh...
- Quinn's a girl.
- Yes, I see that.
- *
* What you see
* Is not what you get
* Livin' our lives with a secret *
* We fit right in
* Bet you never guessed
* 'Cause we're livin' our lives *
* Just like all the rest
* A picture perfect family *
* Is what we try to be
* Look closer, you might see *
* The crazy things we do
* This isn't make believe *
* It's our reality
* Just your average family
* Trying to be normal and stay out of trouble *
* Livin' a double life
- Quinn, it's so nice to finally meet you.
Can I get you anything to girl--I mean, drink?
- No, I'm fine.
- Yes, you are.
I'm Max. - QUINN: [laughs]
- Uh, sorry we're late.
Quinn made us help a family of ducks cross the road.
- And I'm out.
- It's so cool to meet your friends, Linky.
- Aw...
I'm sorry, did you just call him "Linky"?
- Oh, that's Quinn's nickname for me.
- It's not as good as your nickname
for me when we were kids.
- BOTH: Quinny-boo-bear! [laughing]
- What about that cute nickname you have for me?
- I call you "Phoebe."
- Stop, I'm blushing.
- Excuse me, I have to call my aunt
and let her know I got here safely.
- So...
[arm squeaking]
Ta-da! - [laughing]
- You and I have our six month anniversary this week.
- Oh, and you have a best friend who's a girl!
- You know, it's funny.
I never quite think of Quinn as a girl.
We became best friends
because we were both nice kids raised by supervillains.
Our parents called themselves "The Frightening Four."
- Wait a minute, her parents are Insecto and Beetle Girl?
- Well, yes, but I call them Mr. and Mrs. Murphy.
- They were the bug freaks
who attacked the Metroburg Mango Festival.
- Yeah, they go crazy around mangoes.
But, luckily, your dad thought fast
and hosed 'em down with some hot sauce.
- Well, good thing Thunderman
never goes anywhere without a tank of hot sauce.
- Off to check the mail!
- Well, anyway, Quinn's not like her parents at all.
No bug powers and as nice as can be.
- Yeah, she seems great.
- See, that's why I like you so much.
Not a jealous bone in your body.
- Not me. All my bones are perfectly cool.
Ha! That should be my new nickname--
Coolbones!
- Oh, my goodness. I am so sorry.
Link, could you get me a broom?
- It's okay. It's just a silly little birdhouse.
Let me help you. - Thanks.
Oh, and by the way...
this birdhouse isn't the only thing
I'll be breaking apart while I'm here.
- Excuse me?
- Link and I belong together...
and the only thing in our way is you.
- Again--excuse me?
- I've got the broom.
- Oh, Phoebe says she'll finish up.
Uh, we have to go, Linky.
My aunt is waiting for me. - Oh, okay.
Uh, Phoebe, come with us
to Scrunchies' for ice cream tomorrow?
- Yeah, Phoebe, come with. [laughs]
- Uh...sure...?
- Great. Great.
See ya then, Coolbones.
- *
- Billy, Nora, do you know why we asked you up here?
- I admit it! I drank Mom's shampoo!
It just looked so green and refreshing.
- It's true. You've gotta see the video.
- Okay, we'll talk about that later.
But, first, we wanna thank you
for being so great about sharing a room
ever since we put Chloe in Billy's old room.
- And as a reward, we worked all day
and redesigned your room.
- NORA: No way! - BILLY: Whoa!
- This is the coolest room ever!
- I call the bed that says "Billy"!
- We're glad you like it.
Come on, Chloe, it's time for your nap.
- I wanna nap here.
- Don't you wanna nap in your room?
- There's a monster.
- A monster? Sweetie?
- Dad, let us handle this--kid-to-kid.
- Chloe, we used to be in your shoes.
Seriously, those used to be my shoes.
But take it from us,
there's no such thing as monsters.
- Never has been. - Never will be.
- Except the huggy monster! [roaring]
- [screaming]
- What were you thinking?
- Billy drank shampoo!
- Is it something you can use as a weapon?
- No. - You sure?
'Cause I once crippled a guy with an onion ring.
- Max, I need to talk to you.
- Quick, get me an onion ring!
- Remember Link's friend Quinn?
It turns out she's some sort of crazy mean girl.
She totally hates me.
- Still waitin' on the crazy part.
- I'm serious, Max.
She even threatened to break up me and Link.
She made a heart with her hands,
and then went like this...
- She used mime?
Look, Phoebe, even if it's true,
why are you telling me? Tell Link.
- That's the problem. I can't.
He'll just think I'm a jealous girlfriend.
And that's not how Coolbones rolls.
- Seriously, get me an onion ring!
- But if he sees her being mean to me again,
he'll know she's bad news.
And since you're always mean to me,
I thought you could help get the ball rolling.
- Look, Phoebe, I'd love to help you, but...
[laughing]
I'm just kidding. I'd hate to help you.
- So, you'd rather glue cards to your head
than help your sister?
Thanks a lot.
- Finally! Now, back to the game.
- He's a horse and you're a pineapple.
- MAX: Oh, come on! - COLOSSO: Hater!
- *
- [creature snarling]
[snarling continues]
- Nora?
Nora!
Look, free bows! - Where?
- I think there's a monster under my bed.
- First of all-- never joke about bows!
Second of all-- don't be ridiculous.
- I'm serious.
I heard a really weird noise.
- Me, too, and it won't stop talking to me.
- Please, Nora? I'm scared.
- [sighing] Come on.
We'll check under your bed together.
- Thank you.
- One, two, three.
You see? Nothing.
- [creature snarling]
- BOTH: Monster!
[screaming]
Hot sauce monster!
- It is the middle of the night.
What are you two doing?
- Trying to survive!
- There's a monster under my bed.
- Nice try, you two.
I heard you telling Chloe you don't believe in monsters.
You're just staying up late, goofing off.
Now go back to bed. - BOTH: But, Dad, there's--
- * La La La La La La Goodnight.
- [door closes]
- Are we gonna sleep here tonight?
- This is our dream bedroom, Billy.
What do you think?
- Goodnight. - Goodnight.
- *
- Hey, Max, thanks for coming.
- I'm not here for you.
I just have an inexplicable craving
for Rocky Road ice cream.
- Ah, weird.
- Eat fire, cyborg scum!
- Pound 'im in the abdomen!
- BOTH: [sniffing]
Ice cream...
- Wait a minute, did you-- - Shhhh, here they come.
Look at her hiding in the back field
trying to intercept my boyfriend.
- Oh, nice football analogy. - I hate that I know that.
All right, here's the deal-- I'll buy you three scoops,
if you can get Quinn to be mean to me again in front of Link.
- Phoebe, there's no way. The woman's hug-a-duck is--
- [stomps on ice cream] - GIRL: [crying]
- [giddy laugh] I think I'm in love.
- I told you she was bad. - Well, she's not only bad...
she's heartless...
and callous...
and she will be mine.
- That could work.
If you can get Quinn to fall for you,
she'll forget about Link.
Okay, here's what you need to do--
Wait, where'd ya go?
- Hey, guys.
- Oh, hi, Max. I didn't know you were coming.
- Uh, I invited him.
You know much he loves-- - Your eyes.
- I was gonna say "ice cream," but...
creepy works, too.
- So, Quinn, how long are you in town?
Maybe I can show you around?
- No, thanks, I don't get to see Linky very much,
so, I was planning to spend all my time with him.
- Uh, actually, me and Sir Links-a-Lot,
new nickname, are having our sixth month anniversary dinner
tomorrow night, so you guys are free.
- I see. Then I'd love to see you, Max.
We'll make it a double date with Phoebe and Link.
- What?
- Oh, you won't be jealous if we tag along.
Will you, Dogbones?
- It's Coolbones.
And I'm cool with it.
- Uh, well, if you are, then I am.
Now what's everyone having.
- I'm just gonna get a small cone.
- I'm buying!
- With hundred dollar gift card.
- Give it up, honey! Link is mine!
So back off or else...
Cute shoes!
- I do not accept your compliment.
- Would you like to sample our mango frozen yogurt?
- Mango!!
[pincers clicking]
[gulping platter]
- *
- All right, another monster-free night.
Billy, wake up.
- [screaming] Eat Nora first!
This is awkward.
- Get up--we have clean this mess
before Mom and Dad come downstairs.
- On it.
[zooming]
Can you move? I'm trying to hide stuff from you.
- Pillows? Did you guys sleep down here last night?
- No.
- The last two nights.
- What? Why?
What's that on your arm, Billy?
- It's a recipe for the monster.
- "How To Make a Nora Casserole."
- Billy!
- Maybe you two sharing a room was a mistake.
Now you're sneaking down here in the middle of the night
and making stuff up?
- We're not making anything up.
There really is a monster.
- [poofing] Told ya.
[poofing]
- Okay, this has to stop.
No more monster talk, or we're gonna separate you guys
and have Billy sleep in the attic.
- Yes! And Nora, too?
- [sarcastic laugh] No! Are you even listening?
- You're right, Mom. We promise.
No more monster talk.
So, let's talk about the monster.
Obviously, we need to handle this on our own.
And there's only one solution.
- Move out west and live off the land?
- No, we catch that monster and take back our room.
- Right! Then move!
- *
- PHOEBE: [laughing] - Oh, this place is lovely.
- Only the best for you, Quinn.
Remember when you paid at Scrunchies'?
That's our thing now.
- I'm gonna check on a little anniversary surprise
I set up for us. - Aw...
- Which is less of a surprise now.
- [laughing]
I have the best boyfriend.
- Yeah, and to think the cab driver thought
Link and I were a couple. - [laughing]
Well, you were sittin' on his lap.
- I was just giving you room to fix your makeup.
But you're fine.
The lighting in here is very forgiving.
- BOTH: [insincere laughter]
- LINK: [laughing] What'd I miss?
- Not much.
- Come on, our table's ready.
- Remember the plan, Max, okay?
Make Quinn fall for you, so she'll lose interest in Link.
- You keep talking like we're in this together.
- I'm just trying to make her fall for me
so she loses interest in Link.
Now, time to put on the flirt face.
Step aside, 'cause this might get beautiful.
I call this one...
The Velvet Tiger!
[snarling]
- You sure that's not the, uh,
constipated kitten?
- [snarling]
- My, it is so humid out here.
It's a good thing I brought my pocket fan.
Uh, Linky, a little help?
- All right.
- *
- Okay, wrap it up.
It's a dinner, not a photo shoot.
- That's it, keep going. - [camera shutter clicking]
Give me the eyebrows. Look at the camera.
Love ya. Oh, nice.
- PHOEBE: [powers zapping] - MAX: Oh!
- Why don't we all sit down?
[laughing]
- Uh, how do I turn this fan off?
- Oh, it's easy. Watch.
- PHOEBE: Oh!
- Oops!
- Uh, did that mess up my hair?
- No. [laughing]
- So, Quinn, I'm really liking your mean streak.
I admittedly have a bit of one, myself.
- I have no idea what you're talking about.
- Our little secret. Got it.
- Good evening. I'm Rob. I'll be your waiter tonight.
- Hey, Robbie, why don't you tell us about the specials?
- I'd be happy to.
Our fish tonight is a tuna tartare with a--
- [powers zapping] - [speaking gibberish]
- I'm sorry, what was that?
- Uh, it's tuna tartare with-- - [powers zapping]
- [speaking gibberish]
I'm sorry. Would you please excuse me?
- [laughing]
I should get out more often.
- You should.
In fact, why don't you go on another date with Quinn?
Somewhere else.
Right now.
- What do you say, baby?
- Ew.
- Uh, hey, everybody, how about we toast
to Phoebe's and my anniversary?
Max, could you pass the water?
- [powers zapping]
- [water splattering] - PHOEBE: [gasping]
- Oh, Phoebe, that's too bad.
At least it wasn't one of your nice dresses.
- *
- Okay, let's review the plan.
The monster will enter the room--attracted by our bait.
- Pork sausages and a copy of "Monster Fashion" magazine.
- When he trips the trap, whoosh, the net falls on him.
- Then you zap the daylights out of him.
- Exactly. - But don't zap the magazine.
I still wanna see what those sassy Sasquatches
are wearing this Fall.
Let's do this!
- [creature snarling]
- Did you hear that? - Uh-huh!
- [loud thud] - [net drops]
- We've got him, Nora.
Now blast him into next week.
- BOTH: Chloe?
- Hi. - [creature snarling]
- Is that the sound your doll makes?
- What is going on in here?
- Chloe's the monster!
Blast her, Nora!
- Chloe's not a monster.
Chloe, what are you doing in here?
- My room's scary.
- Oh, I get it.
She's been teleporting under our beds at night
because she's afraid to sleep in her own room.
- Is that true, sweetie?
Are you afraid to sleep by yourself?
- Uh-huh.
- Aw, that's so cute.
Nora, take a shot!
- Sweetie, do you wanna sleep in Mommy and Daddy's room
for a little while longer? - Mm-hm.
- Well, Billy, looks like you have your old room back--
for a little while.
- But we love being roomies.
- Yeah, Nora blasts my toys in her sleep.
- Yeah, in my sleep.
- Look, Chloe, you can come stay with us
whenever you want.
- Geez, why do we need a five-bedroom house?
Why don't we all just sleep in the same room?
I was kidding!
- [creature/doll snarling]
- Ah, all dried off, Phoebe?
- Hey, Quinn, what're you doing in my chair?
- It's just so much more festive
when people switch seats during dinner,
don't you think?
- You know what? I do!
Which is why I think we should switch seats again.
[laughing]
Look at us being festive.
- Listen to me, wondergirl, I warned you.
Nothing can stop me from being with Link.
- I'm not afraid of you.
- You should be.
I can be very scary.
- Bug eyes? Oh, you are goin' down!
Link, I didn't wanna say anything
'cause I was afraid you would think I'm jealous,
but Quinn has been trying to steal you away from me.
Oh, and, status update--
she's an evil bug villain just like her parents!
- Evil bug villain?
Run away with me!
- Phoebe, why would you say such hurtful things?
- Oh, quiet, six-legs!
- Surprise crab cocktail for the anniversary couple!
- Oh, not a good time.
- I'll take that. Tiger's gotta eat.
- Phoebe, maybe your group anniversary date was a bad idea.
- It wasn't my idea, it was hers--
Quinny Bug-Bug!
- Maybe I should just take Quinn home.
- You don't believe me?
- Two mango salads.
- Excuse me a sec.
- MAX: [whining]
- Trade ya half-eaten crab legs for a mango salad.
Thank you. - Phoebe, what are you doing?
I was digging those crab legs.
- It's mango salad, Max.
If I'm right, Quinn can't resist the smell of mangoes.
- Really?
Then the Velvet Tiger has just found his scent.
- Listen, Quinn wants to go
and you're just not being quite yourself tonight.
- Aw, but you can't leave yet.
Quinn hasn't even had her dinner.
- [pincers clacking]
- PHOEBE: [gasps] - LINK: Quinn?
- [gulping plate of food]
- What is happening?
- Oh! Oh! I know!
Uh, see, this is the moment where you realize
your girlfriend was right about your friend being a bug villain!
- Uh...guys...
Quinn is kinda... lookin' at me funny.
- Oh, you're okay, Max.
They only go into a feeding frenzy when they smell mangoes.
- Well, that's bad because
I sorta just rubbed mango all over my face.
- QUINN: [slurping]
- Hot sauce.
- [gulping bottle]
[screeching, sizzling]
[screeching]
- Phoebe, I am so sorry I didn't believe you.
I ruined our anniversary dinner.
- No, you didn't ruin it.
Your two-faced bestie did.
- Well, aren't you two adorable.
I almost just got my head eaten!
- Of course, since Quinn now knows where we live,
I'm gonna have to hand her over
to the Hero League for memory wiping.
- QUINN: [sighing]
I'll never forget you, Link!
- Yeah, you will-- in about 40 minutes.
- Seriously? Still into Captain Boring?
Well, hey, guess what? I never liked you!
Yeah, you bug-eyed flyin' freak!
Heh. Heh.
So, does she have a sister?
- *
