AND A WASTE BASKET.

MAY I BE EXCUSED?

I HATE SEEING:

PEOPLE BARF.

[ Gagging ]

[ Groaning ]

YOU ARE TURNING INTO A

BOOGEYMAN, AREN'T YOU?

WHAT MAKES YOU SAY THAT?

WHERE DO BOOGEYMEN

COME FROM, LARRY?

IS IT IN THE BOOK?

"IF A CHILD STOPS BELIEVING IN

AN IMAGINARY FRIEND TOO SOON,

THE IMAGINARY FRIEND... MAY

TURN INTO A BOOGEYMAN."

THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING

TO YOU, ISN'T IT?

BECAUSE I MADE DARWIN STOP

BELIEVING IN YOU TOO SOON.

LARRY, I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU.

JUST GO AWAY, OK?

YOU CAN'T HELP ME.

DON'T SAY I CAN'T HELP, OK?!

THAT'S A TERRIBLE

THING TO SAY.

WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO?

DARWIN, I'M TRYING

TO HAVE A PRIVATE

CONVERSATION HERE.

DOES THAT MEAN YOU'RE

TALKING TO YOURSELF?

WILL YOU JUST PLEASE LEAVE

ME ALONE FOR A LITTLE WHILE?

IT'S MY ROOM.

PLEASE?

OK, BUT THEN I

GET YOUR ROOM.

WOULD YOU GIVE THIS

TO DARWIN FOR ME?

HE'S LOOKING ALL

OVER FOR IT.

MAYBE YOU COULD GIVE

IT TO HIM YOURSELF.

OR MAYBE I COULD

TALK TO DARWIN:

AND I COULD GET HIM TO

BELIEVE IN YOU AGAIN.

IT'S A LITTLE LATE

FOR THAT, FRAN.

LARRY?

[ Growls ]

OH, THERE YOU ARE.

NESTOR HERE IS A DIVER.

YOU CAN GO FOR:

RIDES ON HIS BACK.

HE MIGHT EVEN GIVE YOU

SWIMMING LESSONS.

DO YOU SMELL SOMETHING?

[ Sniffing ]

HEY. HOW ARE YOU DOING?

NOW, WATCH.

BOOGEY GOO!

STOP IT, LARRY! OK?

THAT'S DISGUSTING!

HA HA HA! HE HE!

BOOGEY GOO! I THINK I MUST'VE

SPILLED IT ON THE KITCHEN FLOOR.

AND YOU STEPPED IN IT.

I DIDN'T STEP IN ANY

BOOGEY GOO, OK?!

THEN HOW DID I GET UP HERE?

DARWIN!

DARWIN!

NOW WATCH ME DIVE.

AAAAHHHHH!

DARWIN?

DARWIN?!

[ Thunderclap ]

[ Growling ]

WHY ARE YOU:

BREATHING LIKE:

THAT?

[ Deep Growling Voice ]

THERE'S SOMETHING IN MY--

[ Coughs -- Normal Voice ]

THERE'S SOMETHING IN MY THROAT.

HE MUST BE DOWNSTAIRS.

OH! THAT'S AWFUL!

WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?

THE BOOGEYMAN LICKED

THE SHOE! BLAAA!

ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT THE

BOOGEYMAN'S GOT DARWIN?

IT MUST BE AFTER HIS SOLE.

IT'S GOT BOOGEY GOO ON IT.

I LOOKED UNDER THE BED, AND

DARWIN IS NOT UNDER THERE.

NO, NO, NO, NO.

HE'S UNDER THERE,

YOU JUST CAN'T SEE HIM.

DARWIN'S IN THE

BOOGEY WORLD, NOW.

I'M GONNA GO GET MY

TEMPORALFUGE, ALL RIGHT?

BOOGEY WORLD?

NO. NO, NO, NO.

YES.

NOW YOU HAVE GONE TOO...

FAR.

OK, I REFUSE TO BELIEVE

IN SOME INVISIBLE PLACE

CALLED THE BOOGEY WORLD.

C'MON, FRAN. YOU BELIEVE IN

THE BOOGEYMAN, DON'T YOU?

I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM.

YOU DIDN'T SEE HIM ON

THE ROOF LAST NIGHT?

ALL I SAW WAS YOU AND A

LOT OF BLINKY LIGHTS.

BESIDES, IT'S HARD TO

BELIEVE IN SOMETHING YOU

CAN'T SEE.

YOU MEAN LIKE ELECTRICITY.

OH, COME ON.

ATOMS, MOLECULES,

GRAVITY.

OK, OK.

IF THERE WAS A...

BOOGEY WORLD,

HOW DO WE GE INTO IT?

WE DON'T.

THIS JOB IS FOR A

PROFESSIONAL.

LOOK, I AM NOT GOING TO SI UP HERE AND DO NOTHING, OK?

YOU HAVE NO IDEA

HOW HARD IT WAS:

WHEN DARWIN WAS SICK AND I

COULDN'T DO ANTHING--

AND YOU TOLD HIM HE SHOULD

STOP BELIEVING IN ME!

YOU WERE A BIG:

HELP THEN, FRAN.

WHY ARE YOU:

BEING SO MEAN?

WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?!

I'M TURNING INTO A

BOOGEYMAN, OK?!

OK, FRANCIS?

I'M GOING WITH YOU.

WHAT IF I BOOGEY DOWN

THE REST OF THE WAY

WHILE YOU'RE IN THERE?

YOU MAY GET TRAPPED IN BOOGEY

WORLD, JUST LIKE DARWIN.

I'M NOT WORRIED ABOU WHAT HAPPENS TO ME.

I AM! OK? I AM.

LARRY...

WHAT?!

WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT ME

BEING RELIEVED WHEN I

COULDN'T BE A DONOR...

IT'S TRUE.

I WAS GLAD I HAD TO BE BERT,

BECAUSE I WAS SCARED.

REAL PEOPLE GE SCARED, FRAN.

IT'S PERFECTLY LOGICAL.

[ Thunderclap ]

AAAH!

OH, I HATE THA STUPID THING!

AAAH!

PLEASE DO NOT DO

THAT, DAD?!

FRANCIS, DID YOU PUT A

GYM SOCK IN THE BLENDER?

DAD, I'M KINDA IN THE

MIDDLE OF SOMETHING

RIGHT NOW.

WELL, IT'S JUST GOING

TO HAVE TO WAIT,

BECAUSE I AM NO LEAVING HERE

UNTIL I HEAR THE TRUTH

ABOUT EVERYTHING.

OK.

IT WAS...

THE BOOGEYMAN.

OK? THE BOOGEYMAN.

YOU KNOW, AND HE'S GOT DARWIN

UNDER THE BED, RIGHT NOW.

AND HE HAS BEEN THE

CAUSE OF EVERYTHING

THAT HAS BEEN:

HAPPENING AROUND HERE.

MAYBE YOU WOULD BE MORE

COMFORTABLE SPEAKING WITH

YOUR MOTHER ABOUT THIS.

SURE.

BYE.

[ Door Closes ]

[ Grunting ]

LARRY! LARRY!

LARRY!

YOU KNOW WHAT? I HAD A FEELING

YOU WERE FOLLOWING ME.

ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU

STARTED YANKING MY CORD.

WHERE ARE WE?

UNDER YOUR BED, SORT OF.

YOU BELIEVE IN THE

BOOGEY WORLD NOW?

THIS ISN'T HAPPENING.

IT'S SO BIG.

IMAGINE IF YOU HAD A

QUEEN-SIZE BED. WHOOO!

NOW THAT'S BIG.

HOW AM I GONNA FIND

DARWIN IN THIS?

WELL, WE CAN WALK

OR TAKE THE CAR.

IS THAT DARWIN'S TOY CAR?

YEAH. YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN

ME TRYING TO GET IT OU OF MY POCKET.

WHOOO!

DO YOU THINK THAT THE

BOOGEYMAN WOULD HURT DARWIN?

OH, NO, NO, NO, NO.

YOU'RE THE ONE HE'S AFTER.

I FIGURE DARWIN'S JUST THE BAI TO GET YOU UNDER THE BED.

SO YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR BACK,

YOUR FRONT, YOUR SIDES,

YOUR RIGHT, YOUR LEFT,

AND-- WHOO-HOO! OVER YOUR HEAD!

LOOK OUT!

STOP! STOP!

IS THAT THE BOOGEYMAN?

IS THAT THE BOOGEYMAN?

NO. THIS IS A

PEANUT-BUTTER SANDWICH.

WHY IS THE BOOGEYMAN

AFTER ME?

WHY DOESN'T HE JUS LEAVE ME ALONE?

DID YOU EVER HAVE AN

IMAGINARY FRIEND?

NO. NEVER.

MAYBE IT'S JUST A

BOOGEY THING.

[ Squishing ]

SO SICK!

OK, WE GOTTA PUSH THE

CAR TO GET IT STARTED.

AH, HELLO? WHY DON'T YOU

USE THE JUMPER CABLES ON

YOUR BACK?

JUMPER CABLES ONLY

WORK ON REAL CARS.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO

PUSH IT BACKWARDS.

I BET YOU ONLY HAD

EDUCATIONAL TOYS.

C'MON. LET'S JUS FIND DARWIN.

[ Grunting ]

AND NOW YOU'RE POWERLESS

IN BOOGEY WORLD.

DON'T WORRY, LARRY.

I WON'T HURT YOU.

IT'S LOTS MORE FUN

TO JUST CONVERT YOU.

HELP!

I'M NOT A BOOGEYMAN, YET.

THERE'S STILL TIME

TO BUST YOU!

HUH?

LARRY, ARE YOU OK?

WHO ARE YOU TALKING
