302 - My Best Friend is Invisible

Viewer beware.
You're in for a scare.
Goosebumps.
Come on, open it.
If we increase the cathode charge we might get a cleaner morphic image.
The image is fine, Norman.
It's a molecule detection light, not a video camera.
I don't think this is such a good idea.
Oh, come on, when your parents are working, the house could fall down and they wouldn't notice.
Come on.
Boy, I never knew hedges could get this big.
Why do you think they call it Hedge House? Look, there's probably no ghost in there anyways, so what's the point of going in? The legend says there is a ghost and we are going in.
Come on.
Come on, l-let's go.
Ah, no term project's worth this.
If we get the ghost on tape you can forget about the lousy term project.
We'll be world famous.
What do you think? A ghost is just gonna walk up and pose for you? Listen, I'm not asking you to do too much, here, ok.
Just stand there and keep your eyes open.
Trust me, they're wide open.
Now, just shoot some video and let's go.
Roxanne, come on.
Roxanne.
Come on.
W-what's that? I don't know.
Must be some kind of breeze action let's get a closer look.
No way.
Come on.
Are are you crazy? You're right, I almost forgot.
Get this on tape.
It's it's a note.
A a note? "I'm ready for my close-up.
" I'm outta here.
The ghost is in that room.
That's nice.
I'm leaving.
We're going in.
Ro-Rox, please.
Come on, look at this.
It's just a chair.
"Boo!" Is this suppose to scare us? Sam, what's wrong? What's your problem? Didn't you see it? Yeah, I saw it.
Y-you see a note and you start screaming.
I I'm not talking about the note.
I I'm talking about the face.
The horrible clown face.
Oh.
Ok, you you mean this.
Get that thing away from me.
It's a rubber mask, Sam.
You scare way too easy.
It was floating in the air like something invisible was wearing it.
Then why didn't you get it on tape? We're just gonna have to go back in there again, you know.
I am never, never, going back into that house again.
Then you shouldn't have teamed up with me for this term project.
I was the one who wanted to do it on photosynthesis, remember? Well, you're stuck with it now.
Listen, I got to get going.
See you later.
Mom? Dad? Mom? Dad? What are you doing here? I I heard noises.
Have you been working here for long? I've been working down here all night.
Sam, you know your not allowed down here.
Now, it's late.
Go to bed.
H-hey, Dad, did you leave the window in the kitchen open? Yes, I did.
It's stuffy in this house.
That's good.
Are you ok? Yeah, I'm fine.
Don't touch that! W-what is it? It's a secret, I can't talk about it.
It looks like some kind of light.
What does it do? It's for seeing things that are hard to see.
Look, I've told you more than I should already.
Go to bed.
Hello.
R-Rox, it it's me.
I I think something followed me from hedge house.
Sam, ghosts don't follow people home.
How do you know? Do have some sort of haunted handbook or something? What did your parents say? Are you kidding? I can't tell my parents.
I'm not even supposed to be at Hedge House.
Yeah, I see what you mean.
You look really tired.
You should try and get some sleep.
I'm never going to be able to sleep again.
Mom? Dad? Mom? D-Dad? Mom? Dad? Huh? Hey, I was playing with that.
Who-who said that? I did.
Wha-what do you want? That depends.
Are are are are you a ghost? Yes, I'm the ghost of Hedge House.
P-please don't kill me.
Hmm.
I've never thought about killing you.
Forget-forget I said it.
You know, Sam, it might be kind of cool, to hang out with me for while.
It was dead around Hedge House.
Not bad, dead.
Yeah, dead.
You're funny.
I'm glad you like my sense of humor.
Maybe we could be friends.
Friends with a a ghost? If you wanna be my friend then, uh, why did you trash my room? It's a ghost thing.
Hey, good hands.
Thanks, but I don't think it's such a good idea that we hang out.
Aw, come on, Sam.
It'll be fun.
How many kids can say they have a ghost for a friend? Ok, pay attention.
Ok, when I say go, you start to juggle.
Ok, whatever.
Ok.
You can come in now.
Don't get me wrong, I can't wait to meet your little ghost friend.
Well, uh, what's his name again? Bobby or Billy or Bryan or something? Brent.
Brent, right, well, of course, because they're so many ghosts that are named Brent.
Ready to eat your words? The floor is yours.
Ok, Brent, go.
Go.
G-go.
I said go.
Aw, come on, Brent.
Very cute.
I came all the way over here for this.
I'm telling you, the ghost of Hedge House followed me here.
Mmm-hmm.
Nice try, Sam.
I can't believe how far you'll go to get out of going back there.
We don't need to go back there.
He's right here.
Obviously.
Listen, Sam, the next time you get a great idea for a rainy day, do me a favor and call someone who cares.
Look.
I've got things to do, Sam.
Rox.
What were you doing? Why didn't you listen to me? You made me look like a jerk.
What's wrong, can't you take a yoke? Get it yoke? I I swear, Rox.
The moment you left, he started talking.
In fact, he wouldn't shut up.
Would you shut up? You're gonna get us in trouble.
I'm telling you, Rox.
The ghost is living in my Sam Jacobs.
Apparently, your an expert in the art of converting fractions.
Stop fighting me, I'll get you out of this.
Let go.
I don't need your help.
Very impressive, Sam.
You managed to get them all wrong.
It it wasn't me, it was a a ghost.
Take your seat, Sam.
Sorry, I was never any good at math.
Hey.
Thank you.
Oops, sorry Sam, it wasn't me, it was a ghost.
N-no.
No.
No! What was I supposed to do? The guy was picking on you.
You weren't supposed to do anything.
What kind of friend would I be if I let him get away with that? You're not my friend.
What are you saying, Sam? I'm saying you're not my friend.
You're my worst nightmare.
I want you out of my house and out of my life.
Your exactly right Sam, I'm not your friend.
I've never been your friend.
I'm your worst nightmare.
You know what tonight is.
I'm never going back to that house again, never.
Never, huh? Oh, what was that? We we should get outta here.
Sam, this place really is haunted.
Right, so let's get outta here.
Shh! Are you kidding? It's got to be in one of these rooms.
Sam, you get the next door.
Or do I have to drag you? Come on.
Looks like somebody lives here.
I I don't get it.
What would a ghost do with all this stuff? There will be no video or flash photography on this ride.
Roxy, say hello to Brent.
Hello.
Goodbye.
I I I think I will be going too, now.
I'm right behind you.
Leave me alone.
You can't keep me out.
You've caused me enough trouble.
Cut it out, leave me alone.
Sam, what's going on? What are you doing? It's in the house, the ghost is in the house.
I knew there were some out there.
I just never thought they would come here.
We better do something about it.
This could traumatize Sam.
Why are you breaking so much? What do want from me? If you want to be my friend, why are you causing me so much trouble? Who are you kidding, Sam? We could never be friends.
Stay where you are Sam.
Be careful Dad, I'm telling you there's a ghost.
Believe me son, this is no ghost.
What is it? Some kind of monster? Please don't hurt me.
Brent? It's a human, Sam.
Human? I thought there weren't any more humans.
That's right, Sam.
They were all sent to the space colonies when we landed here 2 years ago.
Almost all of them.
Some clever ones escaped and stayed behind.
So, uh You really weren't a ghost.
My parents did it.
They said I might be able to survive if no one could see me.
Now I understand why you're so angry.
Why did you take over our planet? It's all right Brent.
We're not gonna hurt you.
Of course, not.
We didn't agree with what was done to the other humans.
We didn't want to send them away.
No, leave me alone.
You built those detector lights to find humans like me.
We did it, to help you Brent.
To save you from the others.
We won't hurt you, Brent.
We promise.
