TAM: Hi, I'm Tam Winkwonk.
This week on Ghosts Who Murder, we'll be exploring the top five signs
you might have a murderous ghost in your house.
‐ Oi?
TAM: And don't forget, all ghosts are extremely murderous.
‐ Kensington, don't forget to take out the trash!
SAMOSA: Yeah. It's full of vegan cheese and clam juice.
‐ Puff! Smells like something died in here!
TAM: Sign number one that you may have a murderous ghost in your house
is it'll smell like something died in there.
‐ Ooh!
‐ Woo! We're doing it this time, Berry! I wanna hit those noise clackers hard.
‐ Let's make 'em clack! ROCKSY: Hu‐uh!
Again! Ow!
Again! Again! Again!
[ Rocksy grunts ]
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!
‐ Sick!
You're gonna hit those clackers in no time!
‐ I dunno why I haven't hit 'em yet, I'm pulling back the stretchy thing,
I'm keeping my eyes closed, I'm letting go.
‐ Y'know, if it were me, I'd try aiming before I let go of Rocksy.
‐ Yeah, that does sound like something you'd do.
You'll never get what you want by planning,
you just gotta do what feels right. Like this.
[ Berry grunts ]
[ screaming ]
‐ Oh, wow! I'm gonna make it.
‐ Oh! Rocksy! ‐ Oh, crud!
‐ She went in the big thing! ‐ Oh, this is bad, gang!
No one's ever come out of that big thing alive!
‐ But also nobody's ever gone in there, either.
‐ Yeah. Nah, Rocksy's definitely a goner.
I'm gonna go on a quest to find us a new leader. Whoosh.
‐ Can we all settle down, please? Look, it's not as bad as it could be,
you could have launched her into that choppy box.
♪
[ cutting maniacally ]
We just need to be patient and come up with a plan.
‐ There's no time for a plan! We've gotta act. Impulsively!
‐ Berry, reckless behavior is how Rocksy got in there in the first place!
‐ You are just going to make things worse. ‐ Hang on, Rocksy! Berry's comin'!
‐ Made it!
[ Berry screams ]
Ah!
TAM: Sign number two that you may have a murderous ghost in your house
is the appearance of a sticky substance known as ectoplasm.
‐ Ooh!
‐ Ah!
[ gasps ]
‐ Berry! Berry, are you okay?
‐ The big thing slammed shut, Twig. I don't know what happened.
‐ You gotta go into things with a plan.
I've been talking it over with Miss Acorn, here.
And she found us another way in.
‐ Oh, Miss Acorn.
♪
[ panting ]
[ sighs ]
‐ Hmm. Do you two know each other?
‐ This is a chance for a new start. Gotta think beyond rocks. Ooh!
‐ Hey, hey, hey! ‐ Can I help you?
‐ Yeah, uh, so me and my friends, we kinda lost our leader
in this big thing, and like, we're looking for a new one.
So what do you think? You down?
‐ Well, how many friends we talkin' about?
‐ Three, plus you.
‐ So there's the wild one, the nervous one, and the laid back one?
‐ Yeah, exactly!
‐ And you are always going on kooky, crazy, fun adventures, eh?
‐ Oh! The craziest!
‐ But it always turns out all right in the end, eh?
‐ Yeah, so far! ‐ Count me out.
‐ Yeah, it, it's not for everyone.
[ Miss Acorn squeaking ]
[ Berry coughs ]
‐ Oh, thanks, Miss Acorn! ‐ So, uh, you busy later?
Would you wanna catch up?
Mm, Berry, you gotta stop doing this to yourself.
‐ So apparently, this tunnel leads right into the big thing.
Rocksy should be able to hear us. We just need to get her attention!
‐ Be loud. Got it.
‐ Light? Uh! A way out! Oh, boy.
[ grunting ]
‐ Hey, Rocksy, up here!
[ screams ]
‐ Huh! Nut.
‐ You think that's loud enough? Maybe we need to go louder.
‐ Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Hey, Rocksy!
[ screams ]
♪
‐ Good thing that chain didn't hit me.
Oh, no, my grip!
TAM: Murderous ghosts can be detected
by the strange noises they make in the house.
Victims often hear clanking metal chains.
‐ What's that noise?
[ screams ]
The ghost must be coming in through this vent!
Blimey, this is a sticky wicket.
‐ Rocksy? Rocksy! Twig, your tunnel is garbage.
All you've shown me is that plans don't work.
Back to reckless behavior!
‐ Whoa!
[ maintaining whoa sound ]
‐ What?
‐ I bet this drain leads outside. Hup!
‐ Oh, look, a smelly dark hole. C'mon, let's dive in!
‐ Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. We can't just jump in there.
We don't know where it goes. Plus, it might be full of all sorts of...
I dunno. Like, like, snakes or something!
‐ Snakes? ‐ Yeah. Could be full of snakes.
‐ Fine, we can clear the way with one of these.
‐ What? ‐ Hi‐ya! Take cover!
♪
[ Kensington shivers ]
TAM: The most murderous ghosts have been known to summon serpents.
‐ Ooh!
‐ Well, that didn't work.
[ shivering ]
‐ I hope Kensington's okay.
‐ She'll be fine as long as she doesn't listen to any podcasts.
‐ No worries. I took her headphones.
‐ Oh, those are my headphones!
‐ Oh, no!
‐ Gee, Berry, how did you know
that pineapple would explode when it hit the water?
‐ What's a pineapple? ‐ I don't see any other way inside.
Okay, let's think this through. Brainstorming. Thinking.
‐ Big thoughts! Mental exploration. ‐ No more plans! You three!
‐ Come with me. Attack! ‐ Attack what?
[ grunting ]
Berry, that's obviously not going to do anything.
‐ Uh?
Uh! It's opening!
‐ Huh, it worked. How'd you do that, Berry?
‐ I dunno. Do whatever comes naturally?
‐ Do what comes naturally. Yeah, I can do that!
[ weeping ]
[ farts ]
[ mumbling ]
‐ Keep calm, carry on.
[ sighing ]
‐ Now's our chance. Mr. Ladybug!
I'm coming for ya, Rocksy!
‐ Well, I've checked your resume and it's impeccable.
Grad school, huh? You're a perfect candidate for leader.
I can't wait to introduce you to Twig and Berry.
[ squeaking ]
Berry? Do you two, uh, know each other?
‐ Nothing can stop us!
Ugh! Uh‐ah! Ugh!
[ grunts ]
TAM: And don't forget, murderous ghosts make stuff like levitate too.
‐ Ooh!
[ screaming ]
You'll never get me, ghosts!
‐ No! I was so close! I'll have to dig my way in.
[ grunts ]
‐ No, you can do this, Twig. Just stop planning. Be impulsive.
Go wherever the road may take you.
[ gasps ]
Ah!
‐ Ugh. Why'd he jump into the choppy box?
‐ I have to go get him. ‐ Looking for guidance?
After a long vetting period, I've found the ideal leader.
‐ Say hello to Stonia. ‐ Perfect!
‐ Yep, knew I picked a good one.
‐ Oh, help! Ah!
♪
‐ I'm coming, Twig! Ugh!
Don't you worry, Twig. I gotchya this time.
Uh‐ah! Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!
Ugh.
I hit the clackers!
[ chuckles ]
Did anybody see?
[ Berry grunts ]
Ugh, this isn't working. Maybe I need a new approach.
Uh, what's that thing Twig said to do?
TWIG: Aim! ‐ "Don't eat your head, Berry."
TWIG: Aim!
‐ "It's where your brain is stored, Berry."
TWIG: Are you kidding me? ‐ I'd be better off aiming.
TWIG: Yes! ‐ It needs to be just right.
Careful, careful now. Here we go. Uh‐ah!
♪
‐ Hurry, Berry! ‐ Hu‐ah!
‐ Oh, phew.
[ scream ]
‐ Stonia, no!
[ sighs ]
Exploding choppy box! Nobody comes back from that.
Guess I have to find a whole new set of friends now.
‐ Aw, again?
I knew we shouldn't have left Kensington home by herself.
[ grunts ]
‐ Whoa!
TAM: And that concludes this episode of Ghosts Who Murder.
‐ She's listening to podcasts!
‐ No! Hi‐yah! ‐ Oi!
TAM: Coming up next, Werewolves Who Stab you a Lot.
[ Bats grunts ]
[ Twig moans ]
‐ Ah! Berry.
[ gasps ]
‐ I think we made it inside! ‐ Uh! We did it?
‐ Yeah! All thanks to your careful planning!
‐ Aw, shucks, thanks, Twig. Now. Let's go find Rocksy.
♪
‐ Phew. Finally.
BATS: Close the door before all the snakes get out!
‐ Hey, Leaf.
‐ I'm glad you all decided to join the crew.
‐ Who are your friends? Oh.
Miss Acorn? Hmm...
I thought you went to grad school out of state.
[ sighs ]
ROCKSY: Oh, work it, caterpillar! Shake that thorax.
Is that a cloak? Whup. Time's speeding up!
Oh, wow. The days are just flyin' by. How's my girl doing?
Uh! Oh! Big, beautiful wings! Bravo, bravo.
Ugh! Guys!
[ panting ]
[ laughing ]
‐ Guys! Did you see that? ‐ See what?
We were busy trying to see if Berry could talk through me,
and have her words come outta my face. Check it out.
BERRY: Testing, testing. Hey, it really works!
‐ I wasn't part of this.
‐ I just saw the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!
A caterpillar just walked up a branch,
and wrapped herself all up in a spit blanket,
and then came out completely different.
‐ Wow! ‐ Cool.
‐ And the best part was she could fly! She had wings, guys. Wings!
[ laughs ]
I mean, that's like every little pebble's dream!
That spit blanket must be some sort of magical snuggle wrapper transformer.
‐ Wow! ‐ What?
‐ I wonder what would happen if I got inside. Hmm...
♪
[ grunting and laughing ]
I'm doin' it!
[ panting and grunting ]
Just get my, uh, uh!
Once I have wings, this'll go a lot faster.
Just a little longer.
‐ Uh, Rocks, I could fly up and, uh...
‐ You stay there! Don't touch me!
[ panting ]
See you guys when I'm a big beautiful flying beast!
‐ Uh, do you guys wanna go get some...
‐ Transformation complete, I'm coming down! Ugh!
So how do I look?
‐ Uh... ‐ Rocksy, Rocksy, Rocksy.
Looks like I'm gonna have to explain some things to you.
‐ Why don't you sit on down. ‐ Oh, I love being lectured.
‐ Me and Berry and Twig are all plants.
We've got these squishy parts called "Orgah nut‐mutter."
‐ Orgah nut‐mutter?
‐ Look, Rocksy, we're all like that caterpillar,
so we'll grow and change.
‐ Uh! You guys are gonna grow wings to?
Oh, man, we're gonna be one sassy flock.
‐ Uh, not exactly. I'm gonna grow into a mighty oak.
And I'll bring shade and comfort to all the little tiny creatures.
Hey, whaa?
BERRY: I'm gonna be enormous!
[ grunting ]
‐ Suit yourself, more wings for me.
[ aspires ]
‐ Ooh, Rocksy. Yeah, rocks don't grow. You'll be a pebble forever.
‐ That can't be right.
I'm destined to be up there with the eagles of old! Caw!
[ chuckling ]
Caw! Caw!
Caw, caw!
‐ Uh, but, you know, staying the same is cool too.
You're like, uh, hard.
‐ You're wrong! I'm full of potential.
And I'd like to see Orgah nut‐mutter contain all of this! Mm‐mm!
LEAF: Ugh, oh, come on!
‐ Why does everyone seem to know what Orgah nut‐mutter is except me!
‐ Yeah, I'll get my wings, you'll see! I'll show you all!
‐ Wait, Rocksy! Ugh, Leaf.
‐ Ah, let her go. As I always say...
BERRY: I'm a big goofy dumb‐dumb who can't keep his stupid mouth shut!
‐ Berry, stop! I've never even said that!
♪
‐ Ugh, it's so hot, I need the power of two fans.
‐ Look what I just won playing poker with second graders!
[ chuckles ]
BATS: What're those weird pod things?
‐ I think it's like when a caterpillar, like, transforms into a scorpion?
‐ So it's a scorpion tank? Aw, sweet! Can I use it to store my loose scorpions?
‐ Oh, yes!
‐ I'll show you! I can transform and be totally different.
Let's get down to business! Ha! I'm gonna change!
Oh‐oh‐oh, I'm changin'! Change! Change! Change!
[ spits ]
Uh. Did it work? Am I flying?
[ gasps ]
Did it work? Did it work?
[ grunts ]
Did it work? Eeh! Oh! Ah...
This will work. Ah! The Cream Flys want my cream!
Ah, get off me, Cream Flys!
[ moaning ]
This isn't working. I think I need professional help.
‐ I'm a legitimate doctor, of course I can help you transform!
I just gave this worm guy over here leg implants.
‐ Every moment is agony!
[ chuckles ]
‐ You're welcome! So, what'd you have in mind?
‐ I saw this beautiful butterfly with iridescent wings
that glimmered in the wind, and it awoke something in me.
And I realized that I'm destined for big, beautiful wings,
so I can soar in the big beautiful blue sky.
It'll be beautiful! So I must transform.
‐ Oh, hey, I could glue this garbage on you.
‐ It's perfect.
‐ Y'know something, I'm gonna miss that Rocksy when we've all transformed.
[ Twig grunts ]
‐ I'm gonna eat Rocksy when I transform. ‐ I'm gonna be all like "who is Rocksy?"
Nah, I'm just kidding. Uh! I'll always remember her,
but I probably will never talk to her again.

‐ Yeah. Y'know, we're busy focusing
on our magnificent and inevitable transformations
while poor ol' Rocksy is just deluding herself. Sad.
‐ We've got plenty of time to transform.
We should hang out with Rocksy while we're still small like her.

‐ Naw, cuz Twig's still all scrawny and lame.

‐ Rocksy, you sacrificed your garbage for us.
Thank you.

but what you did for us, I just got to tell you.

I bet it's really funny. Leaf's so funny.
‐ It just feels really good to finally get that all out.
‐ It turned out I guess I didn't have to transform.
Wings or not, I'm pretty great. And at the end of the day...
