[suspenseful music playing]
[Finn] Let's see here.
"The Gorgon Eye."
"The Gorgon Eye was birthed
from the bowels
of the netherworld."
"She can appear at will
like a nightmarish phantom."
- [tense music playing]
- Whoa. Freaky.
"Look not into its gaping eye,
as your own
will be turned to stone."
[Jake] Wait, what was
that last thing you said?
[music intensifies]
- [Finn] Jake!
- [screaming]
[cracking]
Okay, Jake. Bad news.
Your eyes have been turned
into two big rocks
[clacking]
causing some
temporary blindness.
Should take
about a week to heal.
Ugh! That sucks.
The eyes are a sensitive biome.
Oh, before I forget.
No adventuring
till you're healed.
[both] What?!
Don't forget your eye drops.
- Bummer about your eyes, Jake.
- [plops]
Eh, whatevs.
I don't even
use them that much.
They're like
my fourth or fifth best sense.
My nose is the real hero here.
- Huh?
- Doggie senses, baby.
Okay, go ahead,
ask me a question
about anything
in a one-mile radius.
Go ahead. Go.
Hmm. What's BMO up to?
[sniffing]
- BMO is
- [mystical music playing]
- is downstairs
- [sniffing]
thinking
about picking his nose.
I guess I'll just have
to take your word on that.
- What's Shelby doing?
- [Jake sniffing]
[Jake] Well, Shelby's outside
on a hill
- [sniffing]
- writing in his journal.
Whoa. Deep thoughts, Shelby.
[giggles] Neat.
Point is,
my nose is all we need.
- [sniffing]
- [upbeat music playing]
[rustling and clinking]
[music fades]
Okay, Jake,
can you smell what I wrote
on the card behind my back?
- [both giggle]
- [Jake sniffing]
Aw, hey. Naw, man.
- You're the one who stinks.
- [giggles and gasps]
[Jake] Check your breath, dude.
[exhales and sniffs]
He's getting good.
That's not
my doggie senses, dude.
Human breath.
You can smell that from space.
[whispers] BMO, what did you
do with my toothbrush?
[singing] Shiny bum
Shiny bum ♪
Take a look
At my shiny bum ♪
Ta-da! ♪
Goodbye, bum brush.
Huh.
[sniffing]
[mystical music playing]
Hang on.
I'm picking up something else.
[sniffing continues]
Whoa. This is crazy.
My doggie senses
are getting amplified.
[gasps] What is it?
What is it?
- [sniffing]
- [ghosts exclaiming]
Oh. Whoa.
[sniffs]
[gasps] I can smell ghosts.
- [upbeat violin music playing]
- Whoa, Finn.
You gotta come look.
- Whoa!
- [ghosts giggling]
[Jake] Oh, man!
- [both screaming]
- [Jake] Wow!
There's a whole
ghost world in here.
Boy, they really get down
on the ghost plane.
[grunting in beat]
- [laughing]
- Oh. Sounds cool.
I wish
I could smell it. [chuckles]
[Jake] I'm Jake.
Nice to meet you.
Uh-huh. Oh, yeah,
this is my brother, Finn.
- [whispers] Who is that?
- It's my new friend, Ghost Kid.
[chirping sounds]
Well, don't leave him
hanging, man.
- Shake his hand.
- Oh, uh, my bad.
[squeaking sounds]
No. You don't say.
[laughing heartily]
- What? What's so funny?
- I'm sorry, man.
It's just like something
you gotta smell to get.
It's this face
he's making. [laughing]
He's doing it again. [laughing]
Ah! Ghost Kid rules, man.
[laughing]
Hey, Ghost Kid,
you're such a good dancer.
- [laughs] Ghost Kid's eating
- [blowing]
a whole thing
of chili cheese fries.
Ghost Kid is doing
a kick flip.
You go, Ghost Kid!
Did you smell that, Finn?
- [laughing]
- [wearily] No.
And so, yeah,
I mean, that's my relationship
with my mom.
What about you?
What?!
You should've said that before!
We gotta leave right now!
Wait. What?
You guys are leaving?
Ghost Kid's mom
has been kidnapped.
- But Doctor Princess said--
- Oh, don't worry.
I'll have
a medical professional with me.
Ghost Kid's going to college.
He's getting a degree in
What did you say again?
Ghost dentistry.
Oh, did you wanna come with?
'Cause I thought
you were busy with something.
No, I'm not busy with nothin'.
- [thuds]
- Wait up!
Yee-haw!
[grunts] All right, let's go!
Hey, man, could you scoot back?
You're sitting
on top of Ghostie.
[grunting]
Uh, how's that?
That's perfect.
- [whooshes]
- [screaming]
[grunts] Jake!
- I fell off!
- [Jake laughing]
- [shouts] Jake?
- [brooding music playing]
[panting] Whew!
- Sweet. Zombies.
- [music intensifies]
I wonder
if there's any more
Excuse me?!
- And that's the last one!
- [slashes]
[laughs] Killer assist,
Ghostie.
Aw, you guys slayed
a whole horde of zombies
without me?
- Finn. You made it.
- [groaning]
[grunts] Well, to be clear,
it was an army of zombies,
but, yeah, we're done now.
- [zombies groaning]
- Oops. Oops.
- [Finn groaning in frustration]
- [Jake] So many bones.
I mean, we're pretty sure
zombies took Ghostie's mom.
You should've seen
Ghostie, though.
He ripped a zombie
in half. Vertically.
And the flips, man.
Oh, man, the flips.
I can do flips.
[grunts] Yah!
[sniffs] Naw, man,
that smelled like
a back handspring to me.
[groaning angrily]
[Jake laughing] Oh, ho, ho.
Ho, ho, ho.
Now, that's a flip.
Give me some ghost skin, man.
Let's go! [slaps]
Boop. Kapow!
Bonk. Donk. Tonk.
Walk it out, walk it out.
Now walk the dog.
Sashay. Sashay.
Is that a secret handshake?
Daps! Daps!
Yeah, we've been working on it.
Oh, cool.
Daps! Daps! Daps! Daps!
Finn, stop, stop!
You're punching Ghostie
in the face.
He didn't mean it.
What's that, bro?
Oh, no kidding, huh? Hmm.
Hey, listen, um,
so Ghostie says zombies,
they can smell humans
from a ways off, and you
Listen, we'll catch you
on the next one, buddy.
Whoa, did you say jam band?
Of course,
I'll join your jam band.
- I go crazy on the kazoo.
- [tense music playing]
[groans angrily]
[playing upbeat pop tune]
Now you.
[chirping sounds]
[giggles] You're straight nasty
on that tuba.
[groaning angrily]
- Huh?
- [Jake] Aw, what's wrong, man?
Of course, we'll find her.
You know, Ghostie,
you've become more
than a ghost bro to me.
You're more like
a ghost brother.
[chirping sounds]
Aw, yeah, I'd be crying
right now too,
if it weren't
medically impossible.
Now, come on.
- What does she smell like?
- [groaning angrily]
[mockingly]
You're my ghost brother.
You play tuba so good.
[in normal voice] Oh, I'm sick
of that little ghost jerk!
If only I could see him.
No. Smell him.
[sniffs loudly]
It's no use.
If only I could focus
- my sense of smell.
- [cawing]
Tap into another plane
of consciousness.
- [mystical music playing]
- [cawing]
[splattering]
[echoing] With darkness
comes clarity.
That's it!
[sniffing]
I smell something.
- [sniffs]
- Smells like
[sniffs]
Two poops.
I must go further!
[screams and grunts]
[thuds]
[playing calm tune]
Sense of hearing. Eliminated.
[lisping] Sense of taste.
Eliminated.
- [orchestral music playing]
- [chuckles]
Careful, sweetie, not so fast.
Sense of touch!
Well, it's a good thing
we brought a backup cake
just as beautiful
- as the first--
- Eliminated!
Glob darn it.
I feel nothing!
Ghost world,
prepare to be sensed!
- [inhales heavily]
- [mystical music playing]
No ghosts.
[sniffs] No ghosts.
[sniffs] No. Stinking. Ghosts.
No ghosts. No bro.
[groans angrily]
How did this not work?
- [dramatic music playing]
- [yells] Curse you, Gorgon Eye!
[crying] I wish Jake couldn't
super-smell at all.
[in normal voice] Wait.
There's one thing left
I can do.
For the sake
of the most righteous
brothership in Ooo,
I'm gonna have
to absolutely demolish
Jake's sense of smell.
- [sinister music playing]
- I just need something smelly.
Hot garbage.
Sulphur.
- Rotten meat.
- [cracks]
[grunts]
[thuds and grunts]
What?
My dank breath? [giggles]
[intense music playing]
Mmm. [laughing maniacally]
[whimpers]
[sniffing]
- Whoa!
- [eerie music playing]
I'll get you right out, Mrs. G.
- [grunting]
- [snaps]
Ah. There you go.
Aw, mother and son,
reunited at last.
- [sinister music playing]
- [Finn giggling maniacally]
[sniffs] Phew.
Oh, Ghostie,
did you make some rank, dank,
booty stank? [giggles]
[creepily] Come home, Jake.
[screams]
Ah, yuck, Finn.
I think you've had enough time
with your new friend.
I was gonna come home, man,
after jam band practice.
[exhales]
- [grunts]
- [explosion]
Ghostie! Save yourself, bro.
He's gone mad with stink! Run!
Smell-time's over, Jake.
[grunting]
[inhales deeply]
- [blowing]
- Whoa. Whoa.
Step off. You're gonna
break my nose.
- Only a little!
- Whoa!
- [blowing]
- [Jake] No! No! No! No!
No! No!
- [screaming]
- [music crescendos and fades]
[calm music playing]
Sorry I tried to blow up
your whole new friendship, man.
Eh, it's no biggie.
Ghostie was kind of a diva
about the tuba anyways.
[sighs] I see
you guys went adventuring.
[both] How'd you know?
- [shatters]
- [Doctor Princess screams]

[birds chirping]
[video game beeping]
Hey, Finn, you know, bird poop
is really dangerous, right?
- I know.
- Like, if you got it
in your eye or something,
you could get really sick.
Birds got, like,
700 diseases, man.
Anyway, how do you
like your eggs?
