[BELL RINGS]
SO, WHY EXACTLY ARE WE BREAKING OUR BACKS HERE, SAM?
FROGS' RIGHTS.
WE HAVE TO STOP DISSECTING FROGS
IN OUR SCHOOL BIOLOGY LABS,
AND AT TODAY'S ASSEMBLY,
I'M GONNA DEMONSTRATE A HUMANE ALTERNATIVE.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S NOT A FROG CADAVER?"
RIBBIT. PLEASE REMOVE MY DETACHABLE 3-CHAMBERED HEART.
RIBBIT. [GASP]
AAH!
OH, GREAT. HIM AGAIN.
I AM THE BOX GHOST,
AND I WILL HAVE MY CORRUGATED CARDBOARD VENGEANCE!
[GRUNTING]
OH, GROSS!
YOU GUYS GET TO THE ASSEMBLY.
I'LL GET THIS MORON SEALED UP TIGHT.
HUH. MAYBE SAM HAS A POINT.
OOPS. HA.
TREMBLE BEFORE THE MIGHT OF THE BOX GHOST,
AS YOU ARE DEVOURED BY...
UH, OH, YEAH.
COSTUMES AND PROPS
FROM THE BROADWAY CLASSIC "MY FAIR LADY."
UNH! UGH!
[MUFFLED]
HA HA HA HA!
BEWARE!
FELLOW STUDENTS,
SOMETHING SICK AND DISGUSTING IS TAKING PLACE
RIGHT HERE IN OUR SCHOOL,
AND I'M ABOUT TO SHOW YOU WHAT IT IS.
[LAUGHTER]
WHOO! TAKE IT OFF!
NO, SERIOUSLY. HE SHOULD TAKE IT OFF.
THAT'S WEIRD.

[BELL RINGS]
THANKS TO YOUR LITTLE DRESS-UP PARADE,
MY SAVE-THE-FROGS PRESENTATION WAS A TOTAL BUST.
AND SPEAKING OF BUST,
DID YOU SEE DANNY IN THAT BRA?
PUCE IS NOT YOUR COLOR, PAL.
YEAH, AND NOW BECAUSE THAT IDIOT BOX GHOST
TRASHED MY LOCKER,
I'VE BEEN ASSIGNED A NEW ONE.
LOCKER 724.
[GASP]
GUYS, WHAT'S WRONG?
YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'VE SEEN A GHOST, HA,
OR SOMETHING REALLY SCARY THAT WE DON'T SEE EVERY SINGLE DAY.
HELLO? LOCKER 724?
HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW THE LEGEND OF LOCKER 724?
WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL WITH 724?
Dash: YOU LEFT SOMETHING BEHIND, FENTON.
HA HA HA HA!
LET'S SEE IF IT FITS IN YOUR NEW LOCKER,
WITH YOU INSIDE!
HA HA HA HA!
I WAS GONNA TELL YOU THE LOCKER WAS CURSED,
BUT I THINK YOU FIGURED THAT OUT.
UNH! I'LL SHOW YOU A CURSE.
COVER ME.
YEOW!
DANNY.
RELAX, SAM.
IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU USED THAT PHANTOM ADVANTAGE
FOR SOME GHOSTLY GET-BACK.
UGH.
BULLIES.
SO, DANNY, WHAT'S THIS I HEAR
ABOUT YOU GETTING A NEW LOCKER?
OH, UH, HEH HEH. UH, NO BIG DEAL, REALLY.
UH, NOTHING FOR YOU AND MOM TO GET OBSESSIVE ABOUT.
WHY? IS IT HAUNTED?
DON'T WORRY, SON.
YOU'LL BARELY EVEN NOTICE US
WHILE WE'RE STAKING OUT THAT LOCKER
DURING NORMAL SCHOOL HOURS.
WHAT? NO!
DANNY IS AT A VERY CRITICAL STAGE
IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF HIS PEER GROUPS.
HE'S ALREADY CONSIDERED A CLUMSY NERD.
THE LAST THING HE NEEDS IS YOU TWO CONFIRMING IT.
NICE DEFENSE, JAZZ.
TOTAL CONFIDENCE-BUILDER.
AND THE BEST PART IS, THANKS TO THE NEW GHOST GLOVES,
WHEN THAT GHOST COMES OUT OF THAT LOCKER,
I CAN SPAR WITH IT MONO A GHOSTO.
DON'T WORRY. MAYBE GIRLS WILL TALK TO YOU IN COLLEGE.
Boy: HEY, TUBBY THE TUBA.
NICE SHAKE-O.
DOES IT REMOVE EARWAX, TOO?
BULLIES.
GO LONG!
UNH!
I'M SO FASCINATED BY A-V EQUIPMENT.
CAN YOU SHOW ME HOW IT WORKS?
BULLIES.
OH!
AAH! AAH!
AAH!
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN,
THIS LOCKER DOOR FLIES OPEN
AND NAILS ME.
I'M GONNA BE BRUSHING THIS STUFF OUT OF MY HAIR
FOR A WEEK!
IT'S, LIKE, THIS SCHOOL IS HAUNTED.
APPARENTLY, SOMEONE'S BEEN BUSY.
IT WASN'T ME, I SWEAR!
NOW, THAT WAS ME.
DANNY, I DON'T THINK YOU SHOULD BE USING YOUR POWERS LIKE—
Sam: LANCER. I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
DON'T LISTEN TO HER, DANNY.
IT'S ABOUT TIME SOMEBODY STRUCK A BLOW
FOR SIDNEY POINDEXTER.
SIDNEY WHODEXTER?
SIDNEY POINDEXTER.
LOCKER 724 WAS ORIGINALLY OWNED
BY A POINDEXTER BACK IN THE FIFTIES.
Tucker, voice-over: POINDEXTER WAS THE VICTIM OF MORE CRUEL PRANKS
THAN ANYONE IN THE HISTORY OF CASPER HIGH SCHOOL.
APPARENTLY, PICKING ON HIM WAS A GRADUATION REQUIREMENT.
HA HA HA!
HE GOT STUFFED INTO HIS LOCKER SO MANY TIMES,
IT'S BELIEVED HIS SPIRIT STILL INHABITS IT
TO THIS VERY DAY.
SAM, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
NOTHING.
CERTAINLY NOT TRYING TO SMUGGLE FROGS
OUT OF THE BIO LAB WHILE LANCER ISN'T LOOKING.
Dash: HEY, GUYS,
WHAT DO YOU SAY WE "MEAT"
MY NEW LOCKER NEIGHBOR?
GRR!
EASY, DANNY. TAKE IT EASY.
YOU'RE RIGHT, SAM. I—
ENJOY YOUR SANDWICH, NEIGHBOR.
THAT'S IT!
HMM. I WONDER HOW DASH WOULD FEEL
IF HE HAD A FROG IN HIS THROAT.
OR 12. IN HIS PANTS.
OH, NO.
YOU'RE NOT GONNA EXPLOIT INNOCENT AMPHIBIANS.
FOR SOME JUVENILE REVENGE SCHEME.
[RIBBIT RIBBIT]
HEY!
WHOA! WHOA! OW! OW!
OW! OW! OW! OW!
[CHUCKLING]
HA HA HA!
OW! OW! OW! OW!
BULLIES.
HEY! I'M FREE.
FINALLY, THE DOORWAY'S BEEN OPENED!
HA HA HA!
Poindexter: DO YOU THINK THAT'S FUNNY, BUSTER?
HUH? WHAT?
YOU CAN SEE ME?
YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT, BUB.
NOW LEAVE THAT POOR KID ALONE.
WHAT? OH. OH, HA HA HA!
OH, MAN. THAT'S GOOD.
MAN, DO YOU EVER HAVE IT BACKWARDS.
DON'T HAND ME THAT JAZZ, CLYDE.
YOU'RE THE BULLY FROM WHERE I'M STANDING.
UH, FLOATING.
OK. FLOATING.
LET'S SEE HOW YOU LIKE GETTING BULLIED.
AAH!
[SCREAMING]
Lancer: I KNOW THOSE FROGS WERE HERE SOMEWHERE.
GREAT GATSBY!
HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU?
THERE'S NOTHING WEIRD GOING ON IN THIS SCHOOL.
AAH!
[SCREAMING]
MOVE, MADDIE, MOVE!
LOOK, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.
I UNDERSTAND A BULLY WHEN I SEE ONE.
AAH!
[RIBBIT RIBBIT]
Sam: THERE YOU GO, LITTLE FELLAS.
PUT AN EGG IN YOUR SHOE AND BEAT IT, BULLY.
I'M SIDNEY POINDEXTER,
AND WHEREVER THERE IS A SINGLE NERD IN NEED,
I SHALL BE THERE.
HEY, WHO ARE YOU CALLING A NERD?
UNH! UNH!
THAT'S THE GUY WHO USED TO HAVE YOUR LOCKER.
IN YOUR FACE, MR. SKEPTIC.
IN HIS FACE? SWELL IDEA.
HA HA HA!
HOLY SOCKS!
YOU'RE THE HALFA!
THE WHAT-A?
THE HALFA.
EVERYBODY IN THE GHOST ZONE TALKS ABOUT YOU.
YOU'RE HALF A BOY, HALF A GHOST.
THE HALFA!
YOU HAVE ALL OUR POWERS ON THE HUMAN PLANE.
AND YOU'RE USING YOUR POWERS FOR EVIL?
NO! LOOK! JUST LISTEN!
I TOOK OVER DASH'S BODY BECAUSE—
HEY, WAIT. YOU CAN TAKE OVER A PERSON'S BODY?
JEEPERS CREEPERS, I WOULD FLIP IF I HAD YOUR POWERS.
I WONDER.
HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Poindexter: GIVING YOU A TASTE
OF YOUR OWN MEDICINE, BULLY.
LISTEN TO ME! THIS ISN'T—
[GRUNTING]
AAH!
UGH!
Poindexter: YOU MIGHT USE YOUR POWERS
TO PICK ON INNOCENT KIDS...
Danny: WHOA!
[AS POINDEXTER] BUT I SURE AS SUGAR WON'T.
WHOA! WHOA!
HEY, POINDEXTER.
AAH!
Maddie: IS IT TRUE?
DID YOU KIDS JUST WITNESS A GHOST ATTACK?
FEAR NOT, YOUNG ONES.
THESE GLOVES ARE MADE FOR GRABBING!
[GASP]
UH, NO GHOST HERE, MR. AND MRS. F.
ONLY A GIRL TRYING TO CREATE A DIVERSION
FOR HER OWN NEEDS.
RIGHT. RIGHT. NO GHOSTS HERE.
WATCH IT, DANNY.
YOUR PARENTS ALMOST CAUGHT YOUR INTANGIBLE ACT.
[AS DANNY] WHERE AM I?
IT'S LIKE I DROPPED INTO GRANDPA FENTON'S YEARBOOK.
HEY, POINDEXTER.
YOU GOT A SPOT ON YOUR SHIRT.
HA! MADE YOU LOOK.
[LAUGHTER]
AAH! UNH!
HAVE A NICE TRIP, POINDEXTER.
SEE YOU NEXT FALL.
AAH! UNH!
HEY, DON'T YOU KNOW THERE'S A DRESS CALL, POINDEXTER?
AAH!
I GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE!
[DANNY AS POINDEXTER] OOH, OOH!
SPIFF DIDDLY DEE, MAN.
SO THIS IS WHAT IT'S LIKE TO HAVE FRIENDS.
YOU SURE YOU'RE ALL RIGHT, DANNY?
DANNY?
OH, ME? UH, RIGHT.
I'M RIGHT LIKE IKE, MIKE.
WHY DOES YOUR VOICE SOUND SO WEIRD?
UH, PUBERTY?
WHAT HAPPENED TO POINDEXTER?
OH, THAT SQUARE?
HE FLEW THE COOP.
PERMANENT-LIKE.
Dash: COME ON! GIVE ME MY SODA!
Danny: HEY, LET ME HELP YOU OUT THERE, PAL.
[MACHINE CRANKING]
[GULPING]
AHH!
THANKS, FENTON.
EH, NO PROBLEMO.
WHAT? ARE YOU GOING THROUGH PUBERTY?
UH, YOU KNOW,
I'M A LITTLE TIGHT ON QUARTERS.
THINK YOU CAN GET A FEW MORE SODAS
FOR ME AND MY PALS?
HA HA. YOU BETCHA.
DANNY, THAT'S STEALING.
I'M SURE THAT POOR KID LOST MORE THAN HIS FAIR SHARE OF QUARTERS
TO THE VICIOUS BULLIES IN THIS SCHOOL.
IT'S TIME SOMEBODY EVENED THE SCORE.
HEY, EVERYBODY. EGG CREAMS ON ME.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HECK AN EGG CREAM IS,
BUT THANKS!
WELL, THIS IS NEW.
[AS DANNY] THIS IS HOW I CAME IN.
THERE'S GOT TO BE A WAY BACK.
HUH?
YAY!
HERE'S TO FENTON!
[CHEERING]
WHAT THE HECK?
TUCKER! SAM! IT'S ME—DANNY!
HEY, FENTONMEISTER!
WE'RE SHORT ONE FOR TOUCH FOOTBALL. ARE YOU IN?
POSILUTELY ABSITIVELY.
POSILUTELY? HA HA HA!
WHEN DID YOU GET A SENSE OF HUMOR?
Kids: ALL RIGHT!
YEAH!
HEY, POINDEXTER.
WHAT'S BLACK AND BLUE AND CAN'T TOUCH THE FLOOR? HA!
I... GIVE UP.
YOU! HA!
OK, FENTON.
AFTER THE SNAP, I'LL HAND THE BALL OFF TO YOU.
HA HA HA!
LEAVE HIM WIDE OPEN FOR PUNISHMENT.
ALL RIGHT! LET'S GO! YEAH!
[GRUNTING]
UNH!
HAVE TO CONTACT THEM SOMEHOW.
WELL, IT WAS NICE KNOWING HIM.
THINK I CAN HAVE HIS COMPUTER?
[SHOUTING]
HA HA HA!
FENTON'S GOT GAME! WHO KNEW?
Jack: THERE'S A GHOST IN HERE.
I CAN FEEL IT IN MY BOOTS!
AND I'M NOT LEAVING THIS CAMPUS
TILL THESE GLOVES GRAB SOME GHOST.
[BEEPING]
A GHOST?
THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT.
HMM. LOOKS LIKE WE'LL BE STAKING OUT THE SCHOOL ALL NIGHT.
DON'T WAIT UP.
IN THAT CASE, I NEED TO USE THE LITTLE GHOST HUNTER'S ROOM.
HOLD THESE GLOVES, SON.
WHERE I'M GOING, THERE'S NO NEED FOR THAT MUCH POWER.
PARTY AT FENTON'S HOUSE!
[CHEERING]
HOT DOG! WHERE DOES HE LIVE?
IT'S YOUR HOUSE, BONEHEAD.
IS HE HILARIOUS, OR WHAT?
FREE SODA, A TOUCHDOWN,
AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRASH A CLASSMATE'S LIVING ROOM.
HOW EASILY THE LETTER JACKET
AND POMPOM SET IS SWAYED.
I DON'T KNOW.
DANNY SEEMS A LITTLE... OFF.
ALTHOUGH, THE RESIDUAL POPULARITY EFFECT
COULD WORK TO OUR ADVANTAGE.
OH, KWAN.
YOU SIMPLY MUST WEAR ONE OF THESE "SAVE THE FROGS" BADGES.
IT'S ALL THE RAGE.
I DON'T KNOW.
HEY! BOSS BADGE. CAN I HAVE ONE?
HEY, I WANT ONE!
ME, TOO. I CAN WEAR IT
WITH MY OLD ARMY LIME GREEN BABY TEE.
GIVE ME ONE, YO.
I STARTED THIS TREND.
HANG ON, FOLKS. PLENTY MORE IN MY LOCKER
WHERE THAT ONE CAME FROM.
AAH! AAH!
SAM! TUCKER! IN HERE!
POINDEXTER?
NO! IT'S ME— DANNY!
POINDEXTER TOOK OVER MY BODY
AND SENT ME INTO THIS BIZARRO SPIRIT WORLD.
PROVE IT.
IN SECOND GRADE, TUCKER THREW UP IN YOUR LUNCH BOX,
BUT HE TOLD YOU RICKY MARSH DID IT.
WHAT?
I KICKED HIM OFF THE MONKEY BARS FOR THAT!
IT WAS YOU?
DANNY? DANNY?
[GRUNTING]
THE MIRROR ACTS AS SOME KIND OF PORTAL,
BUT I CAN'T PHASE THROUGH IT.
OH. SERVES ME RIGHT.
I'M ONLY IN HERE BECAUSE I WAS ACTING LIKE A BULLY.
NOW I'M IN HERE, AND I'M GONNA GET BULLIED
FOR THE REST OF ETERNITY!
YOU MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT,
BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN POINDEXTER CAN'T GET BACK IN.
I DOUBT HE'S IN A BIG HURRY TO GO BACK WHERE HE CAME FROM.
I KNOW HOW TO GET HIM IN HERE.
HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO DO.
Sam: DANNY! COME QUICK!
A BULLY IS SHOVING A POOR, DEFENSELESS NERD INSIDE HIS OWN LOCKER.
TUCKER! I'LL SAVE YOU!
HEY, THERE'S NO NERD GETTING SHOVED INSIDE HIS LOCKER.
AAH!
THERE IS NOW.
NO!
[GRUNTING]
YOU'VE HAD YOUR FUN.
NOW I WANT MY BODY AND MY LIFE BACK.
FORGET YOU, BULLY!
YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
HA HA! I'M DOING IT!
HUH? AAH!
YOU MAY HAVE MY POWERS,
BUT YOU SURE DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE THEM.
'COURSE, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE THEM,
BUT AT LEAST I KNOW HOW NOT TO USE THEM BETTER THAN YOU DO.
YOU WOULDN'T HIT A GUY WITH GLASSES.
YOU COULDN'T HIT A GUY WITH GLASSES.
UNH!
IN FACT, YOU COULDN'T HIT THE BROAD SIDE OF A BARN!
HOLD STILL.
[BELL RINGS]
Kids: FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!
HEY! GET A LOAD OF POINDEXTER.
HE'S FIGHTING A HALFA.
HA HA! LOOK AT HIM STAND UP TO THAT WEIRD-HAIRED GHOST BOY.
I'M NOT A BULLY! UNH!
AAH!
NOW, IF YOU DON'T MIND,
I'M GONNA LIVE IT UP SOME MORE IN YOUR BODY.
WHAT?
ONE FALSE MOVE,
AND I SMASH YOUR DOOR BACK TO MY WORLD.
YOU WOULDN'T.
YOU'D STRAND US BOTH HERE.
TRY ME.
I'VE GOT A BETTER IDEA.
I CAN MAKE YOU.
WITH YOUR POWERS, I CAN MAKE YOU DO ANYTHING.
Danny, thinking: THAT'S WHAT I WAS HOPING YOU'D DO.
[GRUNTING]
HUH? NO!
I'LL GET OUT OF HERE, BUSTER BROWN!
AND WHEN I DO, YOU'D BETTER WATCH IT!
HEY, NERD!
NICE JOB STANDING UP TO THE HALFA.
WHO'D HAVE THOUGHT YOU HAD IT IN YOU?
YOU WANT TO GRAB AN EGG CREAM?
OF COURSE, I COULD HANG HERE FOR A LITTLE BIT.
HEY, THE HECK WITH THE EGG CREAM.
WHO'S UP FOR A DIET SODA?
WHATEVER THAT IS.
UNH!
[RIBBIT RIBBIT]
NO! COME BACK!
OH, DEAR. WHATEVER WILL WE DO?
GOOD ONE, DANNY.
YEAH.
BUT HOW DO WE KNOW YOU'RE REALLY DANNY?
BECAUSE I USED MY POWERS FOR THE WRONG REASON
AND BECAME EXACTLY THE KIND OF PERSON I HATE.
IT GOT ME INTO A LOAD OF TROUBLE,
AND I'M NOT GONNA DO THAT AGAIN.
NOW, THAT'S THE DANNY I REMEMBER.
JUST ONE MORE THING TO DO.
Lancer: FENTON. THAT'S SCHOOL PROPERTY.
I CAN EXPLAIN!
ACTUALLY, I REALLY CAN'T.
I'M HOLDING YOU RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS
AND THE ESCAPED FROGS,
BUT SEEING HOW UPSTANDING STUDENTS LIKE DASH BAXTER
HAVE MADE THEIR OPINIONS KNOWN,
I'M WILLING TO OVERLOOK THE FROGS.
MISS MANSON, YOU COULD LEARN A THING OR TWO FROM THEM
ABOUT ACTIVISM.
STILL, THAT LEAVES THE MATTER OF YOUR LOCKER.
I'M GOING TO HAVE TO ASSIGN YOU A NEW ONE.
[TUBA PLAYING]
HANGING WITH BAND GEEKS, FENTON?
NO AMOUNT OF FREE SODA IS GONNA FIX THAT.
HI. I'M LYLE.
WANT TO HELP ME CLEAN MY SPIT VALVE?
[SIGH]
MY 15 MINUTES OF POPULARITY IS UP,
AND I WASN'T EVEN HERE FOR IT.
YEAH, BUT AT LEAST IT WASN'T A TOTAL LOSS.
LOOKS LIKE THIS BABY IS GONNA GET SOME USE AFTER ALL.
AHA!
I AM NO LONGER THE BOX GHOST.
I AM NOW THE MECHANICAL FROG GHOST!
[ELECTRICITY CRACKLING]
I, UH, CHANGED MY MIND.
I AM ONCE AGAIN THE BOX GHOST,
WHO WILL HAVE NOTHING TO DO
WITH MECHANICAL AMPHIBIANS.
BEWARE!
NOW, THERE'S A GUY WHO KNOWS EXACTLY WHO HE IS.
RIBBIT.
