The Doomies (2026) s01e02 Episode Script

1
[gasps, shrieks]
Ow.
This nightmare ends today…
[stomach growls]
…right after a quick breakfast.
Sorry, bubs, forgot to go shopping.
-Mmm.
-[strains]
Oh, oh, oh, oh! Here's an idea.
It's Sunday, which means no school
until tomorrow, which means you--
Nuh-uh! Nope. Can't go shopping.
Already have plans. Big plans.
Stopping the forces of doom.
Well, I have work,
which is a thousand times worse.
So I win.
What? How?
I've done all my chores this month,
and yours.
Hey, I fetched the mail.
Looks like your mom
didn't forget your birthday after all.
[chuckles]
Oh, look, "Tweens: The Dark Inbetween.
From Kid To Teen.
To my big boy. Hot off the press.
Love, Mom."
It's the thought that counts.
-Mwah.
-Ew, Jenny.
[groans] Pickle breath.
Thanks for the shopping. Bye.
-[door opens, closes]
-What-- [stammers, sighs]
Guess evil's gonna have to wait.
-[child] Mom, some candy, please?
-[vendor] Come get your fresh fish!
[customer groaning, straining]
-[vendor] Two for two.
-[chuckles]
Crab, shrimp or swordfish.
-Hello, dear. Two for the price of two.
-[snoring]
[screams]
-[gasps] Romy!
-Oh, man. Wow.
I gotta be dreaming 'cause there's no way
you'd be out shopping
when there's evil forces out to get you.
Uh, couldn't say no to Jenny.
Well, I didn't sneak out on my chores
to help you with yours.
We finally got a spooky mystery
to investigate for our channel.
It would be nice to fix my arm
before school tomorrow.
Um, wanna start at the library?
[chuckles] Boring!
Unless there's a book
on how to fight evil for Doomies,
we're starting here.
You coming?
You're on my bike. So, yeah.
Hey… [groans] …how come
you and Jenny always have the final say?
[Romy] It's a gift.
[squawks]
Welp. We could always come back later.
Breaking in is only gonna lead
to more problems, and--
[Romy straining]
[groans]
[Bobby straining]
[Bobby groaning] Ow!
[whispering] Romy. Wait.
[clattering]
[dishes shattering]
[door creaks]
[both gasp]
[Bobby] Wow, you were right.
Doug's no ordinary lighthouse keeper.
Question remains. What is he?
A dark wizard?
Don't forget to like and subscribe
as we risk our lives
to bring you exclusive content
from beyond.
Or maybe he just got all this stuff
on the dark web.
Oh, yeah. Mm-hmm.
I'm pretty sure
he bought this box of evil on sale.
[gasps]
Romy, I think we're being watched.
Yeah. It's this evil eye
giving you the stink eye.
-[screams]
-[chuckles]
Doofus.
[Romy] Now, this is a library.
Every book's crammed
with weird spells and crazy scribbles.
There's even a page on that creepy rock.
Look.
[creepy voice] Bobby!
[thunderclap]
R-Romy… [stammers] …there's, uh,
something I've been meaning to tell you.
[thud]
[screams] Oh, that does it.
Let's get out of here.
And investigate the creepy rock?
Great idea.
[groans] No, wait.
[pants] I've had
nightmares about that place.
It's like my subconscious
is trying to warn me.
Well, tell your subconscious to shut it.
Now, come on.
"Follow the tree." No, no.
"Follow the track." Or maybe
it's follow the track and the tree.
Argh! Doug's writing is impossible.
[sighs] It's gotta be
around here somewhere though.
Forget it, Romy.
We've scoured the whole forest.
[sighs] Uh, that stone's gotta be hidden
with some kind of spell.
I can sense it.
[chuckles] And it only reveals itself
when it wants to be found?
I don't know, Bobby.
That's farfetched, even for us.
[creepy voice] Rise!
-You know, it definitely says "tree." Mmm?
-[thuds]
Uh-oh, this can't be good.
Ooh!
-This must mean we're close.
-[branch cracks]
No way.
It's that super cool warrior
and future bestie. [chuckles]
Ready for that selfie?
Uh, is this about the shopping?
Did my aunt send you? [screams]
-Run, Bobby! Run!
-[pants]
[both pant]
[both screaming]
[both panting]
That girl's not a super cool warrior.
She's a relentless maniac.
Can't she be both?
But you're right.
I don't think she's ever gonna stop.
Unless we stop her with a trap.
[grunts]
Uh, have you ever caught
a rabbit with this contraption?
Yet you expect to catch
a killing machine with it?
-[phone ringing]
-Hmm?
[Bobby gasps] It's Jenny.
I knew we should have gone shopping.
[both scream, pant]
-[panting]
-[body thuds]
Romy!
[groans]
Huh?
Whew! That's a relief.
She's just after you, Bobby.
[screaming]
[groaning, screaming]
[groans]
Hmm?
[pants] I surrender. [groans]
I don't take prisoners.
Hmm?
Ha! But the bog does.
Booyah! Bobby one. You none.
Whoo-hoo!
The hunted becomes the hunter.
[warrior grunting]
Uh, better not stick around.
Quick. Hop on.
[groans]
[creepy voice]
I know you like to stay hydrated,
but I will pulverize you
if you don't bring me the boy.
Now, go!
[sighs]
[sniffs]
Let me just get this straight. You think
you've opened up a gateway to Subterra,
and after being chased by a Fog-Monster,
you're now being hunted by a,
let's see here,
relentless maniac who appeared
out of nowhere to destroy you.
-Is that right?
-Yeah… [stammers] …that's it.
Aren't you gonna write it up?
[stammers] As a fanfic? Maybe.
No, as a report.
[gasps] It'd be even better
as a graphic novel.
A story about two tweens and their fight
against the creatures of doom
but nobody believes them.
I can even see the title,
Wolf Criers: A Saga.
Hey, my life is at stake here.
Yes, that's it.
There needs to be stakes. Ooh, and twists.
Maybe in the end,
the boy sidekick gets it.
Wait, I'm the sidekick? Hmm?
Welp. So much for our credibility.
[sighs] This is pointless. I give up.
Hey, we can still find a way out of this.
We just need to--
-Doug?
-I've been looking for you.
Your lives are in mortal danger.
[Jenny] Hey, bubs. Did you go shopping?
-Uh--
-You betcha.
[chuckles]
-The usual?
-Mmm.
We're the Doomies, by the way.
Ouimper's number one channel
for all things paranormal.
And, by number one, we mean the only one.
Let me guess. You went looking
for spooky stories in the woods
and got more than you bargained for, eh?
I'm really hoping to de-curse myself
before school tomorrow.
You don't get it, do you, kid?
This is way bigger
than you could possibly even imagine.
Hmm.
Ouimper has always been
a hot spot for the supernatural.
That's why
there's always been people like me,
the Light Keepers, to keep it in check.
But this time, it feels different.
Like a great evil is trying to break free.
Here you go, guys.
Um, yeah, uh, about that. Small whoops.
But I'm pretty sure this pamphlet
made us open up the gates to Subterra.
[chuckles] That pamphlet did nothing.
Something lurking in Subterra
wanted you to find that rock.
But why?
Evil needs an empty vessel,
and it thought it found one in Bobby.
Uh, uh… [chuckles] …I'm sorry.
Uh, I'm an empty vessel?
Psst!
Dude, we should totally be filming this.
So, Doug, tell us, what kind of evil
could be coming after Bobby?
Let's see. What are his symptoms?
Any bodily changes?
-Evil arm.
-Paranormal warts of any kind?
Ew. Don't think so.
I'm right here.
Speaking in tongues?
Easily tongue-tied, but no.
[Doug] Hmm. It could be
a number of things. None of them are good.
One thing is clear,
if this entity claims Bobby's soul,
it could doom us all.
Bobby, you've got front row tickets
to the apocalypse.
[sniffing, snorts]
[sniffs]
[snorting, sniffing]
[snorts, sniffs]
[Romy, Bobby chuckling]
[sniffing]
[growls]
[growls]
[groaning]
The arm is bad enough,
but that doesn't explain the relentless,
shades-wearing maniac chasing me.
-Kim?
-Wait, you know her name?
[gulps]
[gasps] He created her.
Exhibit A.
[clears throat]
Uh, that's my only exhibit,
but I'm totally right. Right?
[clears throat] Well,
I used a spell to summon her.
A chosen one to protect Ouimper
from the forces of evil.
But she clearly thinks
you're evil too, Bobby.
Well, this is good, right?
You can just tell her to stand down, and--
She's designed to be unstoppable,
indestructible, relentless.
[chuckles] Doesn't she have
any more manageable adjectives?
I'm sorry, Bobby,
but if she's after you, she will…
find you.
Go. I'll buy you some time.
-[Bobby whimpers]
-But whatever you do, never stop running.
Snack?
She really is unflappable.
[burps]
[grunting]
[both panting]
Come on, we've gotta keep going.
We can't stop, remember?
I can't keep running forever.
I can barely run five minutes.
[pants] Okay. Um… [clicks tongue] …look,
maybe if we--
Hide you until we find a cure?
Or, uh,
buy you a one-way boat ticket out of here?
Or-Or try cutting off your arm
and putting it back on again?
Oh, enough!
I'm not just a vessel for evil, Romy.
I'm a vessel for evil with feelings.
[stammers] I'm strangely okay
that I've been roped into a huge,
supernatural mystery
and the fact that everyone
and everything is out to get me,
but this is still my life.
Don't I at least get a say in it?
Of course you do, buds.
So, what do you want to do?
[sighs] I'm glad you asked.
Okay, check it out.
I think my arm glows
whenever evil's nearby,
which means we can use it
to find a real monster for Kim to hunt.
Maybe then she'll see we're the good guys.
That is the worst best idea
I've ever heard.
-Let's go monster hunting.
-Whoo-hoo!
[shudders] School?
You sure about this?
We're the Doomies.
Of course I'm not sure.
[door creaks]
[flies buzzing]
Whoa. This is so cool.
-[flies buzzing]
-[both gasp]
[both] Mmm.
[door creaks]
[snoring]
No way. Our second monster in two days.
We're legit monster hunters.
-[chuckles]
-Mmm.
-Now, we just need to trick Kim--
-[fly buzzing]
Hmm?
No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no.
[echoes]
[fly buzzing]
-[chuckles]
-[growls]
[both scream]
Wrong class. Sorry.
[both panting]
[growls]
[shrieks, growls]
[sniffs, grunts]
[chuckles]
-[Bobby panting] Hmm?
-[whimpering]
-[screams]
-[groans]
Beans, tomatoes, snails.
Asparagus? Ew. Gross.
[Bobby screams, pants]
-[grunts]
-[growls]
[chuckles]
[squealing]
That's it. We need more salt.
-You know we're not actually shopping?
-Hurry!
[grunts]
[groaning]
[squealing]
Whoo-hoo-hoo! Now we're cooking.
[growls]
I think we just made it salty.
[both panting, groan]
[Bobby grunts]
[scraping]
-Got a plan B?
-Call me.
Why would I call you?
You're standing right here.
Just trust me.
[phone ringing]
[groans]
[groans] Is your big idea to annoy
the angry fishman to death?
[ringing continues]
Bobby.
It's gonna work. It's gotta.
Yeah! I knew it was gonna work.
I'll deal with you next.
[gulps]
[grunts]
[groans, grunts]
[both] Whoo-hoo!
[monster, Kim grunting, groaning]
[Kim grunting]
[both gasp]
[Kim grunting]
Oh, yeah! That monster's getting schooled!
[growls]
[gulps]
[whimpers]
[grunting, groaning]
[screams]
[both gasp, whimper]
Okay, this time, we're doomed.
[both grunt, scream]
[Romy screams]
[whimpers]
-[monster growls]
-whimpers]
-[gasps]
-[whimpers]
[groaning]
[screams]
[groans]
[screams, groans]
Whoo-hoo! Saved by the bell.
Told you. You're next.
[screams, pants]
Wait, I'm not a monst-- [screams] I mean,
my arm, it's a-- a monster magnet--
-[grunts]
-[screams]
[stammers] Whoa, what my friend's
trying to say is that he's not a monster.
Just a monster magnet. So…
-We cool?
-[chuckles]
[grunts] You're off the hook for now.
[sighs]
[horn honks]
[tires screeching]
I guess all's well that ends well.
Quick question.
Now that there's no school,
can we still get detention
for destroying said school?
Meh, better not stick around.
-[clattering]
-Huh?
Call me crazy, but since
we're all searching for the same thing,
we should totally team up.
You've got the research,
Kim's got the muscle,
and Bobby and I
can lead the investigation.
-It's win-win.
-[Doug] Hmm.
Impressionable interns,
someone who will actually listen.
You got yourself a deal, kid.
-Put her there.
-Wait. What?
I don't wanna-- Oh, man.
-[grunts]
-[chuckles]
[chuckles]
-[keys jingling]
-Hmm?
[gulps]
[Jenny] Wow. That's enough food
to weather the apocalypse.
Thanks, bubs.
