The Doomies (2026) s01e16 Episode Script

1
[narrator] Welcome to Ouimper…
-[thunderclap]
-[person screams]
…and its spooky locations.
Come visit us if you dare.
We have such sights to show you.
[thunderclap]
[shrieking]
[grunting]
[groans, gasps]
[shrieking]
-[dog whimpers]
-Yeah, been there.
Never change a bulb in the tub.
And here. A gift to welcome you back.
Made it myself.
Cozy. But at least it's yours.
Whoo-hoo!
My own space. My own time to do
whatever I want whenever I want.
Like find some sparring partners.
I even downloaded a matchmaking app.
And I've already got several matches
lined up today.
[grunting]
Um… Kim, matches aren't fights.
They're dates.
The romantic kind.
What?
I just set up a whole butch of dates
in a row?
Don't worry. You might actually have fun.
Maybe. Kinda.
Maybe.
And if these "matches" are too much, just
text us an SOS and we'll come save ya.
Okay.
-So, how are you two dweebs doing?
-Meh.
Still kinda sore about being kicked out
of the Council of Light Keepers and all.
But not even Killjoy can stop us
from protecting this town from evil.
I've even set up a new HQ.
Come on, Bobs. Creepy adventures await.
Good luck with all the dating, Kim.
You're gonna kill it…
metaphorically.
It's not a fight, remember?
[sighs]
Okay, wow.
[stammering] That's, uh… detailed.
Mm-hmm. You wouldn't believe how much
red thread this took. It's bonkers.
Yeah, bonkers.
Oh! Oh, come on, Bobs.
I'm not the bonkers one, okay?
It's this town. Look!
Evil keeps popping up in Ouimper,
like, all the time.
But what if it's not a new evil?
What if it's an old evil?
It's all connected, Bobs.
And the only person as obsessed as we are…
-You are.
-…is the brochure writer, Edward Grimkin.
The OG Doomie.
But he mysteriously vanished
in his own home years ago.
Any answers he could've had are long gone.
Think beyond.
With this,
we can reach out and ask him in person!
An invocation? Communicating with a ghost?
Hmm, think we're ready?
No. Definitely not. But we've been waiting
for the right time to get into his house.
And with everything that's been happening,
we need Edward Grimkin now more than ever.
Besides, I mean, what's the worst
that could happen? Am I right?
[giggling]
We're finally gonna meet our hero.
-Whoa!
-[chuckles]
We, the Doomies, stand on the precipice
of our greatest honor.
Actually, it's just the porch. Ow!
The exploration of this sacred location.
The home and final resting place
of the Terror Tour brochure author,
Edward Grimkin.
We do solemnly swear
to be on our best behavior.
Now let's crack this bad boy open!
[both gasp]
We're actually here
inside the house of our hero!
His house. His dust. His spiderwebs.
[both giggle]
I can't wait to ask him
about his epic adventures fighting evil.
Maybe he'll teach
his monster-hunting secrets.
Okay, let's do this.
[both chanting] G-R-I-M-K-I-N.
G-R-I-M-K-I-N.
G-R-I-M-K-I-N!
[stammers]
You sure that grimoire is not messing
with us?
[shushes]
We call to thee, spirit of Edward Grimkin.
If you can hear us,
we implore you to talk to us.
Pretty please?
[wind whooshes]
-[both gasp]
-[rumbling]
[vase shatters]
It worked.
[stammers] It worked. We did it!
Mr. Grimkin in the flesh…
[stammers] …well… ish.
-Quick, ask him a question.
-Which one? I have so many.
[Grimkin] This house…
[straining] Help me!
[groaning]
He's asking for help the only way
he knows how,
through brochures.
-[rumbling]
-[groaning]
[Bobby, Romy gasp]
[shouting]
No! Come back!
I think our invocation may have woken up
a whole haunted house.
[both grunting]
[both gasp]
[roars]
More spirits breaking through?
We already have plenty, thanks!
[whimpering]
-[grunting]
-[roars]
[screeching]
Huh?
[gasps] Kim?
The dates went that bad, huh?
Wait, why do you have
a different hair color?
-And epic new powers?
-[both gasp]
You're not our Kim!
You're a new Kim!
I am the real chosen one,
sent to destroy the evils in this house.
Killjoy's orders.
Groovy! What about we team up?
Plus, we got Edward Grimkin on our side,
helping us from beyond the grave.
So what do you say?
Wait a sec. You seriously wanna work
with team Killjoy?
I wanna use team Killjoy.
We got the brains, she's got the muscle.
I got super hearing.
And I work alone.
Hey! [stammers] Wait! Wait up!
[whimpers]
Hmm? [gasps]
-Bobby, look.
-[breathes shakily]
[gasps]
Grimkin's office.
Grimkin's notes.
This puts my conspiracy board to shame.
Hey, check this.
"After years of research, I finally
discovered that everything is connected.
We're stuck in a geometry of darkness
-that rages through Ouimper."
-[Romy] And here.
"I was trying to trap a terrifying evil
within these walls.
But this evil tricked me
and trapped me here."
[gasps]
This must be the evil he needs help with.
But what exactly is this evil?
And why is it here in Ouimper?
That's what we need to ask him.
-[grumbling]
-Hmm?
[both gasp]
[grunting]
[groaning]
Why's it so aggressive? [shouting]
Hmm?
I always hated reading.
[groans] This is exactly why I don't read!
[shouting]
[grunting]
-[book growling]
-[Bobby grunts]
Bind it up!
-[grunts]
-[muffled growling]
[growling stops]
-[Bobby, Romy] Hmm?
-[groans]
[sighs]
Oh, you came back for us.
No. I just can't read maps.
"Follow the light."
Look, he's guiding us again.
[both chuckling]
Our Kim was once
as unenthusiastic as you are now.
But she warmed up to us.
Eventually.
Where is your Kim, anyway?
[both] On a date. Several, actually.
[groans]
Know what's on the menu?
Me N-U.
-Wanna be my catch of the day? [chuckles]
-[fish gasps]
[slurps]
I brought my mom along.
I hope it doesn't bother you.
[chuckles]
[screeching]
[screeching stops]
[sighs] Oh, thanks, Kim 2.
Actually, should we call you Kim 2?
Is that rude or…?
[grunts]
What about Kim the Sequel?
Or Kim Again, Just Grumpier?
[spirits shrieking]
Maybe we should turn back?
No! No way! The map says we're not far.
We've got to get to the other side.
How? There's no hallway. [gasps]
[grunting]
It's easy.
Little help?
[sighs]
[rumbling, creaking]
I think we're getting closer!
[spirits shriek]
How can you tell?
[grunts]
-Whoa!
-Because the house
is getting more dangerous. Duh.
[glass shattering]
[gargoyle] Only with the key
can you navigate this broach.
And to find the key, you must be sure.
It's a riddle.
Lousy riddle.
"Broach" doesn't rhyme with "sure."
Broach… Sure…
[sighs] What is the…
[gasps] The brochure!
[gasps]
This should be it.
Maybe we took a wrong turn.
[gasps]
[Romy, Bobby grunting]
Oh, congratulations on making it
all this way.
-And to you, Romy. Well done.
-[squeals]
Your quick thinking with that red thread
back there was genius.
-[chuckles] I see myself in you.
-[gasps] You do?
Wait. How does he know
about the red thre--
Mr. Grimkin, sir.
If it wasn't for you, Bobby and I
wouldn't know about any of this.
We wouldn't be the Doomies.
Ah, yes, the infamous Doomies.
But you could be so much more, child.
Oh, a chosen one, as I live and breathe.
So incredible, yet,
so incredibly bad at reading maps.
My sense of direction might be off,
but I know exactly where I'm heading now.
[grunts]
[gasps]
[straining]
Oh, no hard feelings. I know you're
just doing what you were created for.
You cannot help it.
But I don't have to be the enemy here.
Great. Who's gonna protect us now?
From what? Our hero?
You were saying, about us?
Ah, yes. True truth seekers.
I'm proud of you for making it this far.
Wait, all this was a test?
[chuckles] Of course.
I needed to see whether or not
you were worthy.
-Worthy of what, though?
-Who cares? Did we pass?
With flying colors!
Unlike the myriad of failures before you.
[squeals] We passed.
My obsession paid off.
Tell me everything!
What brought all this evil to Ouimper?
That's where you're wrong, child.
Evil was not brought into Ouimper.
[chuckles] It took me years of research
trying to understand
why evil keeps rearing up in this town.
-Why here?
-[gasps]
But then, I slowly saw the pattern.
And I realized it's all connected.
[gasps]
Ouimper is the evil.
Indeed. Evil to its core.
And I mapped out this darkness
to understand it better.
To make meaning of this troubling pattern.
[squeals] Bobby, you hearing this?
-Told you Grimkin…
-[gasps]
-…would have all the answers.
-This pattern creates
a geometry of darkness
that surges through Ouimper.
A grid powerful enough to open up
a doorway to interdimensional evil.
[sighs] I was so close
to getting it right.
But now you can help me finish
what I started.
Work with me and become my protégé.
-Romy, no!
-Hey, what are you doing, dude?
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Look around you, Romy.
I don't think he was just trying
to expose evil.
-I think he wanted to use it.
-Huh?
-[Bobby screams]
-Bobby!
-[grunts]
-Oh, you mustn't let people hold you back.
But your friend is right.
-That is my unfinished business.
-[whimpers]
I failed my incantational all because
of a typo. The writer's bane.
But now I see I've finally found a
kindred spirit to help me
with my rewrite.
[Kim 2 groans]
Not if I have something to say about it!
-[groans]
-Let my friends go!
[chuckles] Oh, now, now.
All in good time, Romy.
Think about what it would be like
to be my disciple.
You could follow me into the unknown
and help me unleash this great power.
And if you say yes, then maybe I'll even
consider letting your friends go.
Don't listen to him, Romy!
[groaning]
-Hey, stop it! Mmm, let go!
-I can offer you worlds beyond worlds.
Lifetimes of wonder and apocalypses.
Embrace the horrors.
You're…
You're a monster.
-I'm a visionary.
-[thunderclaps]
You should feel honored I chose you.
You did better than all of them.
Pimply Goths, thrill-seeking tourists,
even the odd academic.
They all failed to see the bigger picture.
Well, I'm seeing clearly now.
You were never a good writer.
And your brochures were full of typos.
But, hey, they offered killer meal deals.
-[Bobby, Kim 2] Oh.
-Eat this!
[groans]
[groans]
[grunts, screams]
There is no escape from this house.
You're trapped in here with me
for all of eternity!
-Huh?
-[Bobby, Romy gasp]
[groaning]
Maybe this is why everyone says,
"Never meet your heroes."
[grunting]
[chuckling]
[gasps] What do we do?
You're obsessed. So be obsessed
with getting us out of here.
It's a locked house. Find a key!
[grunts]
Okay. Grimkin talked about an incantation,
which turned him and his house evil,
only, he made a typo.
Which means whatever his incantation was,
he must have typed it.
[both] His typewriter!
I saw it in his portrait. The library.
It's got to be there.
[Bobby, Romy panting]
[groaning, straining]
[shrieks]
[groaning]
[grunts]
[sighs] Keep looking.
There's gotta be a clue or something.
[groans]
[gasps] Bobs, I found something.
[whimpers] That looks ominous.
And what's up with you conspiracy heads
hiding your conspiracies in cupboards?
[gasps]
[gulps]
[shrieks, grunts]
[groans]
-[pants]
-[Bobby shrieks]
[Bobby gasps] The typewriter.
There it is.
Now we just need to find the incantation.
It's gotta be here somewhere.
There's that symbol again.
Wait a second.
[gasps] I knew it!
The symbol matches this map.
Quick. Uh… Let's check the others.
[groaning]
[groaning]
[groaning]
[shouting]
[chuckles]
No way.
The same pattern. Now what?
[gasps]
[both] It's gotta be the incantation.
If Grimkin used this incantation
to invite evil into the house,
maybe I can use the typewriter to fix it,
reverse the spell and undo it.
Just watch out for typos.
We don't wanna end up trapped
like Grimkin. Or worse.
[typewriter keys clacking]
[groaning]
This is where the story ends.
-[Romy breathes shakily]
-Spoiler alert,
with your doom. [groans]
[gasping]
[shouts]
[panting]
[shouting]
No!
[Bobby grunts]
[groans]
You kids may have stopped me,
but my words will live on.
[laughs]
The great apocalypse is upon us,
and you won't be able to stop it!
Um, upside, now we know Ouimper
really is evil to its core.
And someone is using that evil
to usher in an apocalypse.
The apocalypse we saw.
We're gonna find out who it is
and we're gonna stop them.
[phone chimes, buzzes]
Kim! We missed her SOSs.
Her dates have… not… not been going great.
The fallen one really has fallen.
Dating? [groans]
Kim, we're coming to save you.
Nope.
