The Doomies (2026) s01e08 Episode Script

1
[Bobby] What? [stammers] Was I snoring?
Bobby! [whimpers]
[gasps]
Oh, no. No, no, no, no!
-[sighs]
-What happened?
I'm so sorry.
You sleepwalked right up to it and--
The curse has spread, Bobby.
Mordam's soul is linked to yours.
Your days are basically numbered.
-[sighs]
-[scoffs]
[Romy] I won't let anything happen to you.
I promise.
[Doug] I think our best bet
to stop Mordam and Bobby's curse
is to find and lock the Gates to Subterra.
We've already tried and failed
to find them, remember?
We need a backup plan.
Or two. Or ten!
He's right.
We've already searched the whole forest.
Ah, yes. But this time,
I got a wholesale deal
on these top-of-the-range talisman.
-I've narrowed the search area and--
-[Bobby yelps]
[grunts, sighs] Uh, all good!
Still alive. [chuckles]
[sighs]
Anyhow, this area hides a
Bermuda Triangle-esque force field where--
The Conjuring Crystal.
We could summon a decoy copy of me,
fool Mordam, and--
[sighs] The last thing we need
is your evil double roaming around.
[groans]
As I was saying,
we can hang the new talisman here,
and force the Gates
to reveal themselves before--
[crashing]
[chuckles] I'll buy you a new one.
[all screaming]
-[tires screeching]
-[door opens]
Hey, wait.
I thought we were going
to the forest to find the Gates of--
Listen, Bobby, I said
I wouldn't let anything happen to you,
but right now, you're happening to you.
Meaning?
You're a danger to yourself.
Sit back, relax and treat yourself
to a nice spa day at home.
Here, this is nice.
Thanks, but what I need right now is--
-A hot chocolate kit? Here you go.
-No… [scoffs] …I need--
A nice face mask.
-[grunts]
-Enjoy.
And try not to think
about your impending doom.
Stay safe, Bobby. We got this.
And if you need anything, just holler.
[grunts] Wait!
All I need is you guys.
[sighs]
I really don't wanna be alone right now.
[sniffs] Oh.
Jenny?
Hello?
[sighs]
[grunts] Oh.
[person on TV] Local boy--
[person 2 on TV]
…about to disappear any minute--
[person 3 on TV] …whose last wish is--
[person 4 on TV]
…the unfamiliar experience of--
[person 5 on TV] …maternal love--
[sighs]
[Susan laughs]
Okay. [imitates phone dialing]
Hey, Mom. It's me, your son.
Remember me? [chuckles]
I-I know you're super busy,
but I'd really like to see you
one last time.
[groans] What's the point?
It's not like she'll just pop up
when summoned.
[gasps] Doug's Conjuring Crystal.
[grunts]
A pretend mom is better
than no mom at all, I guess.
And it's definitely better
than being all alone.
[hums]
Eh?
Hmm?
Nope, nope. Don't wanna know.
[sighs]
Yeah, who's to judge? A candle's a candle.
[inhales deeply]
[sighs]
[chanting in unknown language]
[stammers] "Insert name of desired thing."
Oh, my mom.
Huh?
[sighs] Well,
that was a waste of an evening.
And birthday candles.
[monster imitating Susan humming]
[groans] Hmm?
Huh?
It worked.
[imitating Susan] Morning, sunshine.
[imitating Susan] Hope you're hungry.
Because I sure am.
Oh, of course that stone
summoned an evil copy.
Yep, my expiration date is coming up
anyway, so let's get this over with.
Uh, slow down.
I like to play with my food first.
A little bit of fear
really adds that extra zing.
Eh, I'm not really in the mood to play.
But?
-[Bobby groans]
-[phone ringing]
[monster] Your days are numbered.
Yeah. I know.
It's the Let's Eat Bobby show.
[growls]
Hmm?
[sighs]
-[growls]
-You're wasting your time.
Hmm?
I don't get it.
You should be terrified of me.
It's not you. It's me.
My friends have abandoned me.
Got no parents and no future.
All my fears have kinda come true.
[groans]
Oh, sorry… [stammers]
…didn't mean to unload.
[sighs] Let me send you back to Subterra.
No, please. Can I stay a bit longer?
I never get to go out.
Oh, uh, okay.
Well, since I'm here,
I could keep pretending to be…
[clears throat] …your mom?
Normally fools who use
the Conjuring Crystal pay with their soul.
-But yours is already spoken for.
-Hmm?
That's Mordam's seal. You're VIP.
So, I suppose you can get
what you wished for free.
A fake mommy.
That's okay. I think I've changed my mind.
Ah, come on. This is a role
I was spawned to play. Plus, I'm fun.
-I mean, can your mom do this?
-[electricity crackles]
Huh?
[screams]
[both scream]
[electricity crackles]
[yelps, grunts]
Whoa. [chuckles] Wow.
Moms don't usually do that.
But hanging out sounds kind of fun.
Oh, it's gonna be wicked fun.
Hey, less texting and more hanging.
It just feels weird without him.
He couldn't possibly hurt himself
putting up ornaments, could he?
-These are not ornaments.
-[line ringing]
Uh, okay. Wrong box. Uh, that one's on me.
-But these talisman will work, I promise.
-[ringing continues]
Hey, it's Bobby. If you're hearing this--
That does it.
Bobby usually always answers.
I need to check up on him.
[Doug] But we're not even halfway through!
[groans]
Bobby's mom?
Something isn't right here.
[shutter clicks]
[phone chimes]
Thumbs up? [scoffs] No, Doug, you dummy!
The second Bobby's alone,
his never-ever-there-mother shows up?
-[Bobby] Whoo-hoo! [chuckles]
-There's no way it's her.
[phone chimes]
[sighs] Doug, you're getting muted.
[engine starts]
[engine revs]
That's definitely not his mom.
But then who is she,
and what does she want with Bobby?
-[engine revs]
-[gasps]
-[people gasping]
-Whoa!
[panting]
-[screams]
-[laughs]
[beeping]
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
-[chuckles]
-[laughing]
-[growls]
-[screaming]
Go, whoo-- [chuckles] You.
[both laughing]
[monster] Two for
Terror on Rue De Bretagne.
I'd recommend Hugapalooza,
a feel-good movie for the little one.
Oh, too scary, is it?
-[growls]
-[screams]
[both chuckling]
-[whimpers]
-[gulps]
[both screaming]
[all grunt]
[whistles]
Check out Bobby.
His face looks wrong.
His hands look wrong too.
-[chuckling]
-What isn't wrong with him? [chuckles]
You're just gonna let them
walk all over you?
-Trust me, they're not worth it.
-Uh-uh-uh.
You've gotta say something,
or nothing will ever change.
Why do you care?
Someone's gotta stand up
for the little guy.
Isn't that right, maggots?
[all screaming]
You are my hero!
[both laughing]
[yelps]
[horn honking]
[screams]
[honking continues]
[chuckles]
[chuckles]
[flies buzzing]
[seagulls squawking]
You know, usually, my life is more like…
[groans, screams]
"Puny human, you are doomed."
[groans]
Thank you. I'm glad we got to do this.
Why do you speak in the past tense?
Well, this whole pretend thing
can't last forever, right?
Hopefully,
evil will be out of my life soon.
Otherwise,
I guess I'll see you in Subterra.
[chuckles] Nah, JK.
But you can't stay alone.
Don't worry. I have Jenny.
And my friends will look after me.
Are you sure about that?
Where were Roug, Domy and Mik
today when you were hurting?
True friends don't abandon you, Bobby.
It's Doug, Romy and Kim.
They're busy closing
the Gates to Subterra.
Oh, I should check on Romy.
Uh-uh-uh. No phone while eating.
Plus, I'm sure your
oh-I'm-so-fun friend is fine.
[chuckling] Oh, someone sounds jelly.
[scoffs] Me?
[chuckles] Huh?
It's getting, uh, chilly.
Why don't we go home?
Bobby! Bobby!
-[pants]
-[phone beeping]
Again? [sighs]
Seriously, what is with this phone?
[snoring, groaning]
[groans]
[gasps]
Ah, I knew it. That's it. I'm going in.
Best day ever.
[yawns]
-[clattering]
-[growls]
[groans]
[whispering] Bobby.
Of course, he tried to summon
a perfect version of his mom.
[door creaks]
[gasps, straining]
Huh?
At last, we get to finally eat.
Bob-- [mutters, muffled]
[shushes] He's having sweet nightmares.
[mutters, muffled]
You know, I was gonna eat the boy,
but he's really grown on me.
And that's left me with an appetite
for nosy troublemakers like you.
But how shall we eat you?
[gasps] "Kid bourguignon"
or "Tween à l'orange"?
[whimpers]
[humming]
[Romy yelping, muffled]
I usually hate children.
Well, obviously, I love torturing them.
But Bobby's so tortured already,
I just felt bad for the poor kid.
[sighs]
I mean, it's no accident
Bobby was chosen by Mordam.
-[Romy, muffled] Chosen?
-Why, yes, chosen.
Only a child who has truly been
given up on is ripe for the picking.
You see, there's nothing darker
than a forgotten child.
[mutters, muffled]
Mm-hmm. Bobby's mom
is the real monster here.
Pass me the salt.
[mutters, muffled]
[chuckles] But don't you worry
about Bobby.
Because now he has a new mommy. Me.
[muffled] He has friends.
He has friends? Like you?
Who let him open the Gates to Subterra.
No, you're a bad influence.
And not a good bad.
[yawns] Who are you talking to?
[chuckles] Just myself.
Why are you up, baby?
[yawns] Thirsty.
[gasps] You can't eat Romy!
It's all for you, sweetheart.
You don't need a terrible friend
when you have a terrific mom.
-[stammers] But-But…
-Mommy knows best.
Now, back to bed.
[mutters, muffled]
[gasps]
[mutters, muffled]
Hey! I'm sending you back to Subterra.
No, no, no, no, no,
you don't really mean that.
I may not have the perfect family,
but Romy's always been here for me.
[groans]
[grunts, spits]
You choose Romy over Mommy?
I told you, it's not even a choice.
Romy's more than family,
and she would never abandon me.
-[growls]
-[both grunt]
[groans] Hmm?
Run, Bobby, run!
[growls]
[grunting, groaning]
[panting]
Help me!
[both straining]
[both panting]
-[banging]
-[yelps]
-[strains, grunts]
-[grunts]
-[monster growling]
-[screaming]
[grunts]
[whimpers]
Here's Mommy!
-Romy!
-[growling, grunts]
[grunts]
[grunts, growls]
[electricity humming]
[both panting] Hmm?
[glass cracks, shatters]
[monster mutters]
If this is the way it's gonna be,
I will eat you both!
[growls]
[both grunt]
[growls]
-I'll just nibble you, Bobby…
-[whimpers]
…but I'm sure Mordam will understand.
-[whimpers]
-[growls]
Enough!
I'm… [pants]
I'm sorry, okay?
Sorry for conjuring you.
And-And sorry for trying to banish you.
[stammers] I wanted to see
my mom one last time…
[sniffles] …and well, I guess calling
a monster seemed a bit less scary.
And today's actually been amazing.
But it's just made me
miss my mom even more.
Oh.
-No! [grunts]
-[grunting]
Listen, I know she's not my mom-mom,
but she's still my kinda-mom,
and she's been kind, unlike my mom-mom.
You just called me your…
[stammers] …kinda-mom.
[cries]
You-You cry baby vipers?
No, wait. We're having this talk.
Because you actually found it easier
to summon a child-eating monster
than confront your actual mom!
Your nosy friend is right.
Enough pretending.
It's time to tell your mom
how you really feel.
Yeah, let it rip.
Because if you don't speak up…
Nothing will ever change.
I'm ready.
[groans]
Humans are already so good
at torturing each other,
it's putting us monsters out of a job.
-Breakfast?
-Sure?
[no audible dialogue]
[humming]
How can you guys hate this?
[Romy mutters]
What, chores? It's torture.
Exactly.
-[chuckles] What's not to like?
-[door closes]
[gasps] Susan?
Sister.
[squeals, groans]
-[chuckles]
-[groans]
We'll get some fresh air.
Huh? No, no, don't wanna know.
Guess what?
Mom's coming home!
I mean, it's gonna take a few days,
but still.
She's coming back!
I'm so proud of you, boo.
Quick, let's take a photo
before I ruin my makeup.
[sniffles]
Oh, that'll be a nice keepsake.
Um,
and, uh, here's a keep-safe for you.
Think of it as a parting gift.
There is a way to cure you.
This complex spell will set you free
once and for all.
I trust your friend, Doug,
will know what to do.
I… I-I… [sighs] Why?
Because you deserve it, Bobby.
You gotta gift back.
It's monster etiquette 101.
[chuckles]
[sniffs, snorts]
Oh, thank you.
I just love that despicable fragrance.
Take care of yourself, kiddo.
Wait.
Are you gonna be okay?
[chuckles] What's the worst Mordam can do,
send me back to Subterra?
[chuckles]
It's been real.
-[sniffles, whimpers]
-[engine starts]
She is pretty cool for a momster.
Mm-hmm.
[birds chirping]
[groans] Finally.
This better pay off.
Oh, it will.
Behold.
By the powers imbued in thee,
top-of-the-range talisman
I got on wholesale,
reveal the entrance to Subterra!
Subterra…
Maybe we need to hang more?
-[Kim groans]
-[phone rings]
Hold that thought. Yello.
You're not gonna believe this!
We found a way to cure Bobby.
With talisman?
[both] What? No!
A monster gave us the key.
It's a complex ritual
straight from the depths of Subterra.
[inhales sharply] It's gonna be lit.
[growls]
I spent the whole day
hanging these ornaments for nothing?
They're not ornaments.
They… But… Oh.
We did hang them upside down though.
-[chuckles]
-[Kim screams]
[birds squawking]
[thunderclap]
[theme song playing]
