1. Friend emergency!
Clear a path!Copy !req
2. - She called you, too!
- Yep.Copy !req
3. Come in, quick!Copy !req
4. Whoa! It's worse than my room!Copy !req
5. Frida, what happened?Copy !req
6. Usually your room is
as neat and tidy as it is in this photo.Copy !req
7. It was like this when I woke up.
What do you think could have caused it?Copy !req
8. Frankly, this mess
has poltergeist written all over it.Copy !req
9. Oh, no, no, no!Copy !req
10. I cannot have a ghost
in my house right now.Copy !req
11. I'm too busy running for class president!Copy !req
12. Frida, it's all right.Copy !req
13. Whatever this is,
I'll get to the bottom of it.Copy !req
14. - You know why?
- Because you're my campaign manager?Copy !req
15. Yes. But more importantly,
I'm your friend.Copy !req
16. And that's what friends do.Copy !req
17. Oh, I knew I could count on you.Copy !req
18. Now, the first thing we need to do
is clean up this room,Copy !req
19. and then we see if the ghost returns
to repeat his mischief.Copy !req
20. How are we going to monitor the room
while I'm sleeping?Copy !req
21. Ooh! I've got an idea.Copy !req
22. You do?Copy !req
23. I think my dad's got
an old video camera that might help.Copy !req
24. Perfect!Copy !req
25. You can take care of that
while we clean the room.Copy !req
26. Now, let's get to it.Copy !req
27. I never thought ghost hunting
would involve so much room cleaning!Copy !req
28. My favorite book is missing!Copy !req
29. The Legend of Great King Condon.Copy !req
30. Never heard of it.Copy !req
31. It's about a boy
who grew up to be a wise king,Copy !req
32. full of grand adventures and pithy wisdom.Copy !req
33. Also, the battle scenes are quite bloody.Copy !req
34. - That does sound good.
- It probably just got misplaced.Copy !req
35. I'm sure it will turn up.Copy !req
36. Why does your father have all this?Copy !req
37. He bought it when I was born
to document my many accomplishments.Copy !req
38. If you want to watch
the first time I poured milk in my cereal,Copy !req
39. it's all on tape.Copy !req
40. Didn't spill a drop.Copy !req
41. There, we're rolling.Copy !req
42. Just let it run all night,Copy !req
43. and tomorrow
we can check the tape for the ghost.Copy !req
44. I'll do my best to act natural.Copy !req
45. Whoa! That ghost really outdid itself.Copy !req
46. Frida, it looks like you made the mess.Copy !req
47. I did.Copy !req
48. Did the ghost possess you?Copy !req
49. No.
I don't think so.Copy !req
50. Did you make yesterday's mess, too?Copy !req
51. Well, uh, yes, yeah.Copy !req
52. Then why did you call us in such a panic?Copy !req
53. Because the mess
is supposed to be gone when I wake up!Copy !req
54. And why would that be?Copy !req
55. How should I know?
It's just how rooms work.Copy !req
56. Oh, no!Copy !req
57. That's not how rooms work, is it?Copy !req
58. No! No, it's not!Copy !req
59. Of course.Copy !req
60. Now that you say that,
it makes sense.Copy !req
61. It's just that's
how my room's worked my whole life.Copy !req
62. I never thought to question it.Copy !req
63. I can't believe you thought
rooms clean themselves.Copy !req
64. Quiet, you!Copy !req
65. You're supposed to be smart.Copy !req
66. - Oh!
- Ow!Copy !req
67. - Get off!
- Stop it, both of you!Copy !req
68. Where did you learn that?Copy !req
69. Hmph! Sparrow Scouts.Copy !req
70. Wrestling badge.Copy !req
71. Now, it's true rooms don't normally
clean themselves, but this room did.Copy !req
72. So maybe there was a ghost.Copy !req
73. But he wasn't messing up the room,
he was tidying it.Copy !req
74. - Then why did he stop?
- I don't know.Copy !req
75. But at least it means
there's no ghost here now.Copy !req
76. - That, that's good, right?
- I suppose.Copy !req
77. - What about all of this?
- Take it from me, you'll get used to it.Copy !req
78. Vote Frida! Class President!Copy !req
79. I pledge to add healthier and tastier
choices for the cafeteria menu.Copy !req
80. Really?
How are you gonna do that?Copy !req
81. Well, I'm very, very...Copy !req
82. I'm very organized and my—
my many skills will be useful in...Copy !req
83. new efficiencies.Copy !req
84. Excuse me.
I'll just show you, uh, my charts.Copy !req
85. Oh, no! Oh!Copy !req
86. - Are you not feeling well?
- I'm fine.Copy !req
87. I've just, uh, got something on my mind,
not that that's a problem for me.Copy !req
88. No, sir.
I never get mixed up.Copy !req
89. Excuse me, Frida.Copy !req
90. It looks like you handed in last week's
vocabulary homework by mistake.Copy !req
91. Oh...Copy !req
92. That's all right.
Class president's not for everyone.Copy !req
93. Vote for Frida.Copy !req
94. Vote for Frida!Copy !req
95. Vote for Frida!Copy !req
96. Vote for Frida!Copy !req
97. I have to drop out of the race.Copy !req
98. What? Why?Copy !req
99. I can't give a speech
about my accomplishmentsCopy !req
100. when I don't even know what they are!Copy !req
101. My whole platform
is about how organized I am.Copy !req
102. We definitely shouldn't have said
organized twice.Copy !req
103. How do I know anything
about myself is true?Copy !req
104. All this time, I considered myself
to be a tidy person,Copy !req
105. but it was the ghost all along.Copy !req
106. A ghost didn't earn
your Sparrow Scout badgesCopy !req
107. or get good grades for you.Copy !req
108. You did that.Copy !req
109. But maybe if I had to clean my own room,Copy !req
110. I wouldn't have had time
to focus on badges and grades.Copy !req
111. That's a good point.Copy !req
112. Maybe I could be a top student
if I had a ghost.Copy !req
113. Maybe without the ghost,
you'll get grades like me!Copy !req
114. David, that's not helpful.Copy !req
115. Calm down, Frida.Copy !req
116. It'll be okay.
And you're not dropping out of the race.Copy !req
117. I guess I could try writing
some kind of speech.Copy !req
118. Um... Oh!Copy !req
119. Uh, maybe I could focus
on the theme of change.Copy !req
120. I, myself, have, um, changed.Copy !req
121. And as class president,
I will, you know, make a change.Copy !req
122. - Something like that?
- Nothing is going to change.Copy !req
123. I'll fix this. I promise.Copy !req
124. How?Copy !req
125. We are going to find that ghost
and bring him back.Copy !req
126. - We're what, now?
- Is that even possible?Copy !req
127. Trust me.
I'll find a way.Copy !req
128. I suppose you always do.Copy !req
129. Uh, excuse me.
I'm looking for some info on...Copy !req
130. Uh, no, a-actually, we're trying
to get a ghost to come back.Copy !req
131. I wasn't recommending that.
It just slipped.Copy !req
132. Um, we're looking for a ghost
that used to clean Frida's room.Copy !req
133. Hmm. What else
do you know about it?Copy !req
134. Did the ghost leave anything?
Take anything?Copy !req
135. He did!
He stole one of my books.Copy !req
136. Interesting.Copy !req
137. A lot of ghosts are just looking
for stuff that belonged to them.Copy !req
138. What about loved ones?
Don't ghosts come back to visit them?Copy !req
139. Sometimes.Copy !req
140. But the good thing about loved ones
is they eventually die, too.Copy !req
141. Then everybody's together again.Copy !req
142. That's why the hardest thing about dying
is leaving all your stuff behind.Copy !req
143. Makes sense.Copy !req
144. Are you saying that my book
belonged to this ghost?Copy !req
145. - Was it an old book?
- Yes! It was an antique.Copy !req
146. Must be a hundred years old.Copy !req
147. Inside the cover, someone had written
"This book belongs to Craigie Williams."Copy !req
148. - Probably Craigie Williams.
- Yes, I know.Copy !req
149. I always wondered what became of him.Copy !req
150. Sounds like he died.Copy !req
151. Yes, I know!Copy !req
152. So, the ghost of Craigie Williams
stole his book back.Copy !req
153. Now we need to figure out
where to find him.Copy !req
154. Plot 572 of St. Guglows Cemetery.Copy !req
155. You've memorized every grave?Copy !req
156. No, of course not.Copy !req
157. Oh, you know,
I should probably look him up.Copy !req
158. Where are those city records?Copy !req
159. Craigie Williams,
St. Guglows Cemetery, plot 572.Copy !req
160. That's just what you said before.Copy !req
161. Was it? I don't think so.Copy !req
162. Listen, Hildie.Copy !req
163. If you're planning to do
what I think you're planning to do,Copy !req
164. you'll need this.Copy !req
165. And this.Copy !req
166. But be warned, you're talking
about deliberately raising the dead.Copy !req
167. Piercing the veil
between this world and the next.Copy !req
168. Are you saying I shouldn't do it?Copy !req
169. Is it important?Copy !req
170. Quite important.Copy !req
171. Then, yeah, sure, knock yourself out.Copy !req
172. Don't worry, it'll be, um, fun.Copy !req
173. What's wrong?Copy !req
174. Frida's counting on me.Copy !req
175. I promised her I'd fix this,
but what if we can't find the ghost?Copy !req
176. Ah, this is precisely why an elf
would never make a promiseCopy !req
177. without a written document.Copy !req
178. That way, you can include disclaimers
that absolve responsibilityCopy !req
179. in the event the promise cannot be upheld.Copy !req
180. But that's awful!
Why even make a promise at all?Copy !req
181. You're admitting defeat
before you even start.Copy !req
182. No, you're protecting yourself
against defeat.Copy !req
183. You know, this isn't much of a pep talk.Copy !req
184. - Can't you just say, "You can do it"?
- Sure. You can do it!Copy !req
185. Statement for encouragement purposes only.
You may not actually be able to do it.Copy !req
186. - What a rubbish idea this is.
- Come on, David.Copy !req
187. - Hilda's being brave. Why can't you?
- Because I'm not brave!Copy !req
188. You know, a bit like how you're not tidy.Copy !req
189. You'll just have to get used
to not being perfect, like the rest of us.Copy !req
190. Frida, don't listen to him.Copy !req
191. Look!Copy !req
192. Now what?Copy !req
193. Roll this back and forth on the grave.Copy !req
194. Are you crazy? No way!Copy !req
195. David, please.Copy !req
196. Frida needs us.Copy !req
197. I know,
but there are limits, aren't there?Copy !req
198. This is what friends are for.Copy !req
199. She never complained about helping you
with the troll rock and the marra.Copy !req
200. "Deep in the earth
your moldering bones for posterity lay,Copy !req
201. but on this night, they stir and moan
when you come out to play."Copy !req
202. Well, come on!Copy !req
203. Wow, what's going on?Copy !req
204. Frida, what are you doing here?Copy !req
205. You know me?Copy !req
206. So you are the one cleaning my room!Copy !req
207. Yes, that was me.Copy !req
208. Every night I visited your room
to enjoy my favorite book,Copy !req
209. The Legend of Great King Condon.Copy !req
210. Oh, reading it always
brought back fond memoriesCopy !req
211. of when I read it as a child.Copy !req
212. I was so pleased
that you treasured the book just as I did.Copy !req
213. To show my appreciation
for you keeping it safe,Copy !req
214. I cleaned the room for you every night.Copy !req
215. Then what? You got tired of that
and took the book for yourself?Copy !req
216. Certainly not!Copy !req
217. I was cross when I saw it was gone.Copy !req
218. But without it there,
I had no reason to return.Copy !req
219. Right. Is there anyone else
who wanted it?Copy !req
220. Um...Copy !req
221. Ooh!Copy !req
222. Engilbjort! It's your brother!Copy !req
223. Did you steal my old book?Copy !req
224. - What's it to you, Craigie?
- I knew it!Copy !req
225. You always were jealous of my books.Copy !req
226. It's not fair.
They were all passed down to you.Copy !req
227. - That collection was worth a fortune.
- I was the reader in the family!Copy !req
228. Bah! Mother and Father
always liked you best, that's all!Copy !req
229. Excuse me.Copy !req
230. I don't want to get in the middle
of your whole, uh, thing here,Copy !req
231. but we need to get that book back.Copy !req
232. - And who are you?
- The rightful owners.Copy !req
233. Oh, well, we'll see about that!Copy !req
234. Do you wish to challenge me?Copy !req
235. Um...Copy !req
236. Yes. We all do.Copy !req
237. Excellent! A wrestling match for the book!Copy !req
238. Don't tell me that.Copy !req
239. A dispute with a ghost
can only be settled by...Copy !req
240. a wrestling match?Copy !req
241. What? We need the entertainment!Copy !req
242. Engilbjort! Engilbjort! Engilbjort!Copy !req
243. - Engilbjort!Copy !req
244. - Why did you have to include us?
- Sorry.Copy !req
245. We need to work together
if we're to have a chance.Copy !req
246. And you have a wrestling badge.Copy !req
247. We need every advantage we can get here.Copy !req
248. Engilbjort's a grown-up.
Or, you know, she was.Copy !req
249. Ready?Copy !req
250. I suppose.Copy !req
251. Now remember, keep it clean.Copy !req
252. Three, two, one...Copy !req
253. Hey, that's cheating!Copy !req
254. Engilbjort, that's a warning.Copy !req
255. Hey, ghosts do say "boo."Copy !req
256. - Ah!
- The boy is out!Copy !req
257. The girl is out!Copy !req
258. Ah!Copy !req
259. You can do it, Hilda.Copy !req
260. Ah!Copy !req
261. Ah!Copy !req
262. - The winner!Copy !req
263. Hey!Copy !req
264. - But she cheated!
- Look, kid, it's almost sunrise.Copy !req
265. We gotta wrap this up
and get back in the ground.Copy !req
266. Bye.Copy !req
267. Frida, don't give up.
There's always something we can do.Copy !req
268. Aha.Copy !req
269. Hey! What are you doing?Copy !req
270. I'm lying on your grave
so your bones can't get in.Copy !req
271. Give us Craigie's book!Copy !req
272. This isn't fair. I won.Copy !req
273. But you also have to be back
in the ground by sunrise, don't you?Copy !req
274. Me, I can lie here all morning.Copy !req
275. Sure is great not being dead.Copy !req
276. Here you are.Copy !req
277. - Thank you.
- You did it! You did it!Copy !req
278. You got The— The Squire's Folly?Copy !req
279. This is the wrong book!Copy !req
280. That's the one I stole.Copy !req
281. I don't know anything
about any other book.Copy !req
282. I don't suppose you'd consider
coming to clean my room anyway?Copy !req
283. What am I? The ghost of a maid? Ha!Copy !req
284. Frida.Copy !req
285. I'm so sorry.Copy !req
286. I failed Frida.Copy !req
287. I'm a bad friend.Copy !req
288. Nonsense!
You're an excellent friend.Copy !req
289. There's none better.
Should you have included a disclaimer?Copy !req
290. Well, of course, you should always
include a disclaimer.Copy !req
291. But she'll be all right in the end.Copy !req
292. Ugh! This corpse frost
does not want to come off!Copy !req
293. And now, your next candidate
for class president...Copy !req
294. - Frida!Copy !req
295. How is she going to handle the speech?Copy !req
296. She's strong. She'll be all right.Copy !req
297. I hope so.Copy !req
298. Frida?Copy !req
299. Has anyone see Frida today?Copy !req
300. I don't know what's the matter.
Maybe you can talk to her.Copy !req
301. Frida, it's just a messy room.Copy !req
302. No, it's everything!Copy !req
303. My parents think I'm perfect.Copy !req
304. It's really quite important to them.Copy !req
305. To be honest, it's important to me, too.Copy !req
306. If I'm not perfect,
then I don't know who I am.Copy !req
307. Look, I don't know who took that book,
but you don't need it or the ghost.Copy !req
308. You're still you.Copy !req
309. Still our friend.Copy !req
310. Oh, really?Copy !req
311. A friend to David
who won't stop poking fun at me.Copy !req
312. And a friend to you
who builds up my hopes for nothing!Copy !req
313. You know, you're not making it easy
to be your friend right now.Copy !req
314. You think it's easy being your friend?Copy !req
315. I'd say I'm pretty low-maintenance
compared to you.Copy !req
316. Ha! Well, I don't drag people
into dangerous situationsCopy !req
317. just for the fun of it.Copy !req
318. Well, at least I know how to have fun.Copy !req
319. Right, because you're
the cool wilderness girl,Copy !req
320. all free-spirited and everything.Copy !req
321. You think you're too good to play
by the rules just like the rest of us.Copy !req
322. Hey, I wrestled a ghost for you.Copy !req
323. We all wrestled the ghost
because you told meCopy !req
324. it would get my book back.Copy !req
325. But it didn't, did it?Copy !req
326. It was just a horrible, terrifying thing
we all had to do for no reason.Copy !req
327. Fine. Sorry I ever tried to help.Copy !req
328. I'm sorry you ever moved here!Copy !req
329. Come on, David. Let's go.Copy !req
330. You could just learn to tidy
your own flipping room!Copy !req
331. He's not wrong.Copy !req
332. Ugh! Just go!Copy !req
