1
[mysterious music playing]
[Cheng] You lied to me, Bai Suzhen.
I did everything you said.
I scaled Mount Emei, I went to the temple,
I searched the riverbanks
for the galanga you described.
And there was nothing!
It was barren! [yells]
[tense music playing]
[Cheng grunting]
Do not accuse me of lying again.
[Cheng groans]
[Cheng grunts then gasps]
[wheezing]
[sobs]
- [Bai Suzhen sighs]
- [poignant music playing]
Rénshēng rú jì, Mr. Cheng.
Let her stay in the Great Beyond.
She will be at peace there.
Please.
You know how this feels.
If you know of some other way.
I beg you. I've tried everything.
There is one possibility.
[ominous music playing]
But even at my most desperate,
I dared not try it.
The risk would have been too great.
[mysterious music playing]
How do I summon it?
They can sense vulnerability.
It's not too late.
We can lay her body to rest tomorrow.
Make sure she's buried properly.
[Cheng grunts]
[sighs]
[poignant music playing]
[sighs]
[grass rustling]
Hm?
[Mogui] You made the right choice.
[ominous music playing]
Her soul must be somewhere after all.
Diyu, the Great Beyond,
some unknown plane.
No mortal can search these realms
without help.
[ominous music continues]
[Cheng exhales nervously]
[music turns dramatic]
[Cheng yells]
[theme music playing]
[Cheng] Xiao Lan, come to me.
[haunting music playing]
[gasps then groans]
[groans]
[Cheng] I've missed you so much, baobei.
[winces]
Baba, you look different.
Don't worry, it's still me.
I'm still your dad.
[groans]
I'm so cold.
[Cheng] Here.
[grunting and groaning]
[sighs]
- Why did you bring me back?
- So we could be together again.
I'm not meant to be back here.
[Cheng] Yes, you are.
You should never have died, Xiao Lan.
- [dramatic music playing]
- [Xiao Lan whimpering]
[Cheng] Let's take these off
and we can be a family again.
No! No, you're not my baba!
[Cheng grunts]
[gasps then whimpers]
[yells]
I want to go back!
[Cheng] Give those back!
[Xiao Lan screaming]
- [gasps]

[groans then screams]
[Cheng yells]
[screams]
[Kit yells then grunts]
[groaning]
[whimpers then screams]
No! This one's not home!
[intense music playing]
[demons growling]
- [man] Monster! Demon!
- [woman] Demon!
[crowd clamoring]
[Wheeler laughs]
[Wheeler on screen] Here it comes!
When she gets upset, her powers activate.
Watch!
Jentry!
[sobbing]
[crowd whispering indistinctly]
[suspenseful music playing]
Uh
[crowd whispering indistinctly]
You'll see. They just take a second to
- [panting]
- [Xiao Lan screaming]
[grunts]
Oh, no. [gasps]
[dramatic music playing]
A-ha!
See? Demon powers!
[crowd screaming]
Everyone, get out of here now!
- [crowd screaming]
- [demon growling]
[cheerleaders screaming]
Jentry!
[roars]
[screaming]
No! This isn't it either!
[screaming continues]
[intense music playing]
[grunting]
[screams]
[Xiao Lan sobbing]
[crowd screaming]
[sobbing] I'm sorry! I was wrong!
Save us, Jentry.
[Wheeler whimpering]
You've gotta be kidding me.
[Stella] Jentry!
That girl.
She was wearing the Yellow Emperor robes.
- I thought you said they were safe.
- They were. In Gugu's house.
That means
something must've happened to Gugu.
Oh, no. Find somewhere to hide.
- Huh?
- You're not going out there alone.
He's right. We're coming with you.
[Jentry laughs softly]
[dramatic music playing]
[demons screeching and roaring]
Is there a less dangerous way
back to Gugu's?
I mean no.
[all grunt]
Okay. So how exactly
do we get the powers away
from the angry flying girl
ripping open portals to every underworld?
I don't know yet,
but I know that she's hurt and scared.
We fight our way through the monsters,
get as close as we can to her,
find some way to calm her down
and get the robes back maybe.
[suspenseful music playing]
Riverfork better put up a statue
or something in your honor after this.
We could just call it even.
[Kit gasps]
- Jentry!
- [growls]
- Jentry, stay back. We got you.
- [Michael yells]
[Michael and Stella yell]
Ow! Ow! Hey! Stop it! I'm here to help!
Kit?
Jentry! I'm so glad you're okay.
That's Cheng's daughter up there.
We need to
No, you don't need to do anything,
except maybe explain to everyone
how all of this is your fault.
- [demons shrieking]
- [Kit whimpers]
[Jentry] The only way
she could get the robes
is if you went back into the house
and stole them.
I'm sorry.
I I did this for us.
I was just trying to
I I just wanted to be human for you.
Jentry!
[melancholy music playing]
I wanna make this right.
If you're still here when we head out,
I'll treat you like every other demon
that gets in my way.
- [Michael] Huh?
- [dramatic music playing]
Can we just circle back
to Gugu being dead?
Why am I just now finding out about this?
[Jentry sighs]
[Stella sighs]
[Jentry groans]
Make as many of these as you can.
[Stella] Hm!
[Michael] Hm? Huh?
- [eerie music playing]
- [thunder crashes]
[gasps then yelps]
[sighs] Huh?
[dramatic music playing]

[screaming continues]
[Zhongkui] Hm.
- [eerie music playing]
- [Gugu grunting]
- Flora?
- Hm?
Oh! Kui Kui! I, uh
This definitely isn't an explosion spell.
Just thought this place
needed some new decor.
You wanna get out?
[Gugu grunts]
- [Gugu growls]
- [ominous music playing]
A little girl is destroying
the boundaries between worlds
with the Yellow Emperor's robes.
Tell me how to fix this
and you can have your freedom back.
This is bad. We're gonna need some help.
[eerie music playing]
[Gugu yells]
They came to rescue me and you froze them?
They were trespassing! [groans]
[gasps]
Gugu! You're alive!
I mean, dead.
You know what I mean. Alive-dead!
Oh, my gosh. I did it! I saved you.
You got caught.
I expected better from you, jiangshi.
- Aw! You did? Gugs!
- [Gugu gasps then chuckles]
[all grunting]
- Gugu!
- [Wallabee] Oh, you're here!
Iris!
[Wallabee] Oh, come here.
We're so glad you're okay.
[portal crashing]
[ominous music playing]
I will come for you
and find a way to bring you back.
I promise.
Okay. You know what to do?
Yeah. Uh, remind me how you say it.

whenever you're ready, Cheng!
Cheng, fighting her isn't working,
and I know how to get to her.
[Cheng] You?
[laughs] Please.
Without the powers,
you're just a frail, pathetic mortal.
If I can't stop her,
what makes you think you can?
Oh, I know I can. Look at her.
Is this what you brought her back for?
[dramatic poignant music playing]
[Xiao Lan groaning]
You don't have to help me.

That people who say they love you
made this decision for you.
Your dad thought
he was doing what's best for you,
but he was only doing what's best for him.
[sniffling]
I didn't wanna come back. [sobs]
He didn't ask me.
I know, but it's going to be okay.
- You know why?
- Mm-mm.
Because other people are always
gonna try and decide who you are,
who they need you to be.
But the only decision
that matters is yours.
So if what you want is to go home,
I'll help you get home.

- [Jentry grunts]
[Cheng] And you think

- [Mogui groaning]
[Stella] Feng!
[Stella gasping]
I really hope I pronounced it okay.
[Jentry laughs]
Baba!
[poignant music playing]
You look like you again.
I think I might be about to take
the long way through Diyu.
But however many years it takes,
when my soul is as pure as yours,
I will come find you in the Great Beyond.
[Cheng] Mm.
Let these people give you
the send-off I never did.
[Xiao Lan] I love you, Baba.
[poignant music continues]
[Cheng exhales]
[Xiao Lan sniffling and sobbing]
I can see you again.
I'm going to need your help.
Her body and soul have long been detached.
She just needs to let go.
Are you ready to go back?
[gasps]
[Jentry laughs softly]
[clacking]
[poignant music continues]
[Xiao Lan] Hm?
[gasps]
[Xiao Lan] Thank you.
[Maz] Mm.
We'll give them proper funerals,
all of them.
Can I just have a minute with him?
[Gugu] Mm.
[music fades]
Deal with that when you're done.
I was wrong about you. I'm sorry.
Hope your soul finds its place.
[Mogui] Aw. So moving.
I liked him too.
I think I've heard enough from you.
[Mogui] Oh, I don't think that's true.
After all, I'm the only one
who knows how to find your mother.
[ominous music playing]
My mother is dead because of you.
[Mogui] No, no, Jentry.
I took her memories, not her life.
I know you saw
the deal I made with your Gugu.
She said she would find a way
to bring Mr. Cheng's daughter back
if I didn't kill Moonie.
And unlike her,
I always keep my end of the bargain,
which is why
I want to offer a deal to you.
All I want from you is to let me live.
[gasps]
After everything you've done?
[Mogui] Your mother is alive, Jentry.
Without her memories, true.
But you have those now.
You can give them back to her. [groans]
Flora doesn't know how to find her.
But I do.
[dramatic music playing]
