Vampirina: Teenage Vampire (2025) s01e03 Episode Script

First Dance

[singing] Slay! ♪
All right, don't worry,
Dance Committee, I got it!
When I earned my Masters
in Education,
I was just dreaming of the day
I would get to hang banners!
Look! The Wilson Hall
Welcome Dance.
There's a dance?
To welcome us? How welcoming!
It's not that big of a deal.
It is to me!
It's not every day
a vampire is welcomed into
a time-honored human tradition.
I think the best part
of the dance
is hanging out
with your friends,
or asking someone special
to go with you.
What do you mean
by someone special?
Like someone who gives you
butterflies in your stomach.
Butterflies? Yuck!
Or Beetles?
Ah I get it.
Do you have someone in mind?
Yeah, I think I might.

"Just remember, this is
your future. Love, Mom."
Not today.
Uh, all right.
Guess those extra push ups
are paying off.
-[knocking at door]
-One second.
Okay, I get to skip
the gym this week.
Come in.
-Hey, Brit.
-Hey,
so about this dance that's happening,
I'm wearing green,
but you're allowed to wear
anything in a warm spring
color palette. I'm easy.
Oh, um, were you thinking
you and me?
Yeah, like always.
We're best friends
and we're a shoo-in for Prince
and Princess.
Let's face it, we are
the Beautiful People.
When you right, you right.
But I was actually thinking
I'd ask Vee to go with me.
Vee? Why? Does she have
something on you?
Come on,
we can all hang out together
when we're there, right?
Yeah, sure
That sounds so fun.
Just how I envisioned it.
Okay, what do you think?
Black as night?
Or black as mid-night?
Vee, are you sure you should
be going to a dance?
There's still a Van Helsing
lurking around somewhere.
Demi, let the Van Helsing
thing go.
I don't need a crypt keeper.
Wow!
This is the way you talk to
the person who rocked
your coffin all day when
your baby fangs came in?
[whooshes]
Wow. For someone who was
never a teenager,
he sure is dramatic.
-[laptop chimes]
-Oh my gosh!
Mini Monster is going
to play the dance!
Who's Mini Monster?
He's an awesome DJ
who used to go to this school!
His DJ thing is he wears
a monster head and claws.
Looks like my mailman
back home.
Do you have a DJ thing?
Not yet, but I will,
'cause "DJ Sophie"
sounds like she plays music
for your grandma's
water-aerobics class.
"Wicka-wicka work it, ladies!"
Speaking of "working it",
I came up with a cute way to
ask Elijah to the dance
with a traditional
Transylvanian invite.
[invite screaming]
Let's go with something
a little more simple.
You know,
straight from the heart.
Will do.
Where do I get a heart?
[Merriweather chuckles]
I didn't take two milks,
I don't even drink milk!
Relax, I'm not
the milk police.
I'm a two-carton girl, myself.
I wanted to ask if you would
DJ the dance tomorrow.
But I thought Mini Monster
was going to DJ.
Oh, he broke his wrist.
Now he can neither drop
the beat, nor raise the roof.
I'm really sorry, but I can't.
I haven't figured out
my DJ persona yet.
I don't have a thing.
Aw, well, I understand.
Artistic expression
shouldn't be rushed.
-Thank you.
-On the other hand
I'm one woman doing the job
of an entire Dance Committee
and trapped
in a fairy-light prison
that's starting to burn!
So, are you gonna to DJ
that dance tomorrow,
or are we going to have
a problem with that extra milk?
-I'll do it!
-[exhales] Thank you!
See you tomorrow
at eight o'clock.
Olivia! Untangle me!
-Hey.
-Hey. Thanks for meeting me.
No worries. I actually have
something I wanted to ask you.
I have something
I wanna ask you, too.
Straight from the heart.
Which I definitely didn't get
at the cemetery.
Do you mind if I go first?
Your gift is getting cold.
You brought a gift?
Are you feeling okay?
Yeah, just beetles.
Okay. [clears throat]
[exhales] Vee Hauntley
Will you go to the dance
with me?
Yes Oh!
-[Vee] No
-No?
No! Not "No" to you. "No"
to my [sighs] Never mind.
-Never mind?
-No! Not never mind, I mean
Yes! Yes, I'll go the dance
with you.
Okay, cool.
Oh, man!
I messed up your pizza.
-But I'm sure there's--
-Oh, no fangs.
I mean, no thanks.
I gotta go!
Guess I crushed that.
What about this?
You could be DJ Blue Hair?
No, that's my grandma's
DJ name.
Ooh, maybe
DJ Lobster Roll.
Of course not,
how would I spin with claws?
Think, Sophie, think!
Vee! Why are you running
around with your fangs out?
They won't go back in!
Elijah asked me to the dance,
and then I got beetles,
which made me fang out,
and then he smushed a pizza.
Did you get any of that?
My body is going haywire!
I'm breaking out with bat-ne,
I can't control my fangs
and my emotions are swinging
like a cobweb in the wind.
[sighs] What is happening
to me?
Ah, yes
I've read about this.
It's the time of undead-life
when a young vampire
comes into her own,
her powers blossoming
like nightshade
Ew! I don't want to blossom.
[sighs] The dance is tomorrow
and I told Elijah
I would go with him.
Then we wait it out
and stay in the room.
They have to retract
eventually, right?
Right. I just have to relax
and stay put.
Why are you dressed like
my dentist back home?
What am I gonna do?
The dance is tomorrow
and I still don't have a thing!
What am I gonna do?
My fangs have been out all day!
How long can I avoid Elijah?
Uh Hi, Door Inspector.
Just kidding.
It's Elijah. Sorry. [clears throat]
Hi. Uh,
one moment please, Inspector!
He can't see me like this!
You talk to him for me.
Me? Why me?
Because my other best friend
is a ghost!
What do I tell him?
Tell him
[sighs]
Tell him can't go
to the dance.
Aw, really?
I don't know
when this will end,
and it's not fair
to keep him hanging.
Aw, okay.
I'll be nicer to him than
he was to our door.
Vee can't talk right now.
She's sick.
Oh, no. Is it the beetles?
Yeah. You know how it is.
I'm actually not sure I do.
Anyway
I don't think she'll be better
in time for the dance.
Oh, um
Okay, well, I hope she feels
better. Your door, too.
Sorry, again. [clears throat]
Argh! This is so frustrating.
Maybe it's time I read
the family book.
[blows, coughs] Oh
"When a Van Helsing receives
their first stake,
their super-human powers
begin to blossom."
Ew! I don't wanna blossom!
-[knocking at door]
-Oh!
Hey, I got your text.
I'm sorry to hear Vee is sick.
You don't look sorry.
The only thing I ever look
is exceptional.
She said she was sick,
but she's acting kind of weird.
I think she's blowing me off.
If she thinks she can
do better than you,
she's delulu.
Yeah. So what do
you think, fam?
Still looking for a Prince?
-Someone's full of himself.
-Ah!
[line ringing]
Sorry, Cody, I have to cancel.
I'm sick. [fake coughs]
Luckily, I'm available.
[in sing-song voice]
The Beautiful People are back.
Oops, sorry, Cody.
[bell tolling]
Yes! Sophie,
my fangs are gone!
Sophie?
I gotta tell Elijah!
Vee, what are you doing out?
I heard you're sick.
I'm actually all better.
Which means I can go
to the dance.
I'm on my way to tell Elijah.
Oh This is awkward.
When he found out
you couldn't go, he asked me.
He did?
-Sorry.
-Oh
Well, I guess I'll see you
guys there.
You're still planning
on going?
Yeah, I don't need a date
to have fun.
And there's no way I'd miss
the Welcome Dance.
Besides, you said the most
important part was Princess.
I can still go after that.
Ah. [chuckles nervously]
Of course, you can.
Well, don't forget. The theme
is "Enchanted by the Bard."
The judges really like
when you lean into
Shakespearean dress.
Hmm. Prithee thank you, madam.
I shall see you anon.
Yeah, definitely do that when
you get to the dance, too.
[upbeat music playing]
SOS! Our DJ is MIA.
If only the Dance Committee
had given me the budget
to get a cover band, Olivia!
You know what? I told myself
I wouldn't do this here.
I will not do this here, no.
Oh, honey, the play's
down the hall.
No, I'm here
for the Welcome Dance.
Oh, oh! And you look
You know, welcome!
[students gasping]
[students laughing]
Britney tricked me.
[fangs pop]
Bats! Not again!
[indistinct chatter]
[Demi] Yep, she needs me.
I need to borrow these.
It's me, Demi. Act normal.
[light dance music playing]
Demi, thank darkness
you were here.
I wanted to keep
an eye on you.
Britney tricked me, and made
me come to the dance
dressed like
a midsummer nightmare!
It's okay. Un-live and learn.
Let's just go back
to your room
and watch
Paranormal Matchmaker.
Hecate is meeting
Wolfie's pack tonight.
It's gonna be a howl.
Leaving is exactly what
Britney wants.
And I can't let her win!
I'll just keep my mouth closed
and hide my fangs
until they go away.
Sure! Let's play it fast
and loose with your life!
By the way, where's Sophie?
I thought she was with you.
She's been gone
since this morning.
I'll find her. Don't worry.
[exhales]
Going back in.
There you are!
You're missing the dance!
Oh, is that tonight?
Sophie
I'm not ready, okay?
I don't know who I am as a DJ,
and how can I go out there
if I don't know who I am?
You know what you need?
You need a Demi pep talk.
I don't like to brag, but men
have followed me into battle.
I think you do like to brag.
I really do.
Anyway, here's your
battle advice.
You're an amazing DJ.
And you don't need a costume,
or a "thing"
to impress anyone.
You're impressive because
you're Sophie.
You're enough,
just the way you are.
Yeah
You're right!
Say it louder
for the cheap seats.
I don't need a thing.
Wait, you're still
in your pajamas!
I'm enough, just the way I am!
I'm just too powerful.
[funky dance music playing]
Whoo! Y'all don't know
nothing about this!
And we don't want to.
I wonder why Vee didn't
tell me she was coming?
[Britney] And in that dress.
Someone likes to be
the center of attention.
Be right back.
Time for my outfit change.
Finally! All right, Wilson,
let's give it up
for our tardy DJ, who
apparently wore her pajamas?
-[record scratch]
-[students gasp]
[scattered laughter]
DJ PJ!
[all] DJ PJ! DJ PJ!
DJ PJ!
I have a thing!
And it's awesome!
[all cheering]
DJ PJ in the house!
Let's wake this slumber party up!
Let's go
Let's get it started ♪
Crash and burnin'
for the faint hearted ♪
I be in the club like
this my jam ♪
Big time ballers
since we going in ♪
Uh, hey! Vee,
are you feeling better?
I was, but now not so much.
You might want to stay away.
Oh, okay. Well
See you around.
[Vee] Ugh!
[Demi] You're still
fritzed out?
Yes! This dance was supposed
to be my chance
to feel a part of things.
But instead, I feel like an
outsider at my own school.
And you know why?
Because you didn't listen to
your wise ghost friend?
No, because of Britney!
She made me feel unwelcome
at the Welcome Dance.
That's enough to make a girl
wanna curse
someone's ancestors.
[Merriweather] All right,
all right. Listen up.
It's time to determine
our Welcome Dance
Prince and Princess,
the Wilson way,
-with a dance battle!
-[students cheering]
[Merriweather] We'll see
who's the best.
I see you, Elijah!
Say, Vee.
[Vee] If Britney wants
to win Princess
she's going to have
to go through me.
[Demi] Careful, Vee!
I came dressed for battle,
too bad you didn't.
[energetic
pop music playing]
I respect the drama.
But you're still going to lose!
[students cheering]
[Demi] There's your Princess!
[Demi] Don't use your powers.
You know they're fritzing.
[student gasping]
[all exclaiming]
[Demi] And
she used her powers.
[Vee] I'm okay!
You kids
certainly keep it interesting.
Your Prince and Princess!
[applause]
[cries softly]
Vee?
Fine. You don't have to talk,
just listen.
I wanted to go to the dance
with my best friend but
he wanted to go with you.
And when I don't get
what I want,
I tend to throw a fit.
Not sure
if you've noticed that.
Like your tracksuit,
hard to miss.
Well, anyway
I'm sorry.
[fangs retract]
Apology accepted.
It is?
Consider your ancestors safe.
Okay
But just FYI, if you wanted to
ask Elijah to dance
I think he'd really like that.
Thanks, Britney.
That's Princess Britney.
Bye! [giggles]
You can't catch me
because I'm moving on through ♪
[all cheering]
All right, y'all,
we got one last track,
and DJ PJ's
gonna roll it back,
to a slow pa-jam-a jam.
[slow music,
The Prams "Two Waves"]
-Hey, Elijah.
-Oh, Vee.
I'm sorry I've been
kind of hot and cold on you.
It's been a weird week.
That's okay. I've been having
a weird week myself.
[laughs] Would you
like to dance?
I promise not to hurl you
into the snack table.
[laughs] I'd love to
dance with you.
Well, what do you think?
Best Welcome Dance ever?
[chuckles] Now it is.
We're like two waves
Crashing in together ♪
[music continues]
-Should we try a spin?
-Definitely.
-Oh
-Whoa, you're strong.
Yeah, it's kind
of a new thing.
[laughs] Okay, my turn.
Whoa, you're strong, too.
I believe that's what
they call "girl power."
[chuckles]
-Oh!
-Nice ring!
"V.H." [gasps]
You're a Van Helsing.
You're a vampire!
[Elijah] Ah!
