What do you got there?
Ha! Just the coolest action figure ever:
Jupiter man.
If I never take him out of the box, he'll be worth a lot of money one day.
Louie, we both know you're taking him out of the box in ten seconds.
Wrong... I'm putting him in storage,
and then years from now cash him in for lots of...
(Gasps) He comes with interchangeable boots?
Aah!
Okay, okay, I'll tell you in just a minute.
Okay, Michelle, we're all here.
What's the big news?
If this is about the note from my principal,
I think Mr. Nelson is the one who's disruptive and unfocused.
Hmm, another note for my scrapbook.
What I wanted to tell you all is
I completed my class on digital photo journaling.
- Congrats, mom! - Nice!
Danke. Arigato.
And you're all invited to my family slide show...
the hathaways: From the dawn of time.
- Oh, nice. - Congrats, mom.
Nice, I like it.
I know, I know. Slide shows can be boring.
But I promise, this baby moves, so make sure
you carve out four hours of your afternoon tomorrow.
- ♪ It's gonna be awesome ♪ - (Chuckles)
Got a parent-teacher conference tomorrow. Sorry.
Plans with Scott. Yes.
I...
I'm not feeling well...
Tomorrow?
So I guess it's just the lucky little ones.
And here's a teaser... I've traced the hathaways
all the way back to a pot maker in mesopotamia.
Her name was nergal.
Shucks, I'm going with the boo crew to haunt the kite festival.
Too bad... it sounded awesome, especially the part where...
I, uh...
Poof! Poof!
Please poof.

♪ But I guess you could call us ♪
♪ The haunted hathaways ♪
I can't wait for tomorrow.
Me, Scott, romantic day at the beach.
I thought he invited you to go pick up hazardous waste.
At the beach.
Okay, so which outfit do you think goes better with trash?
I don't know, fudge?
Meadow, are you checking out Brett Olson?
No!
Maybe.
Fine, I want Brett and me to be a couple
and have everybody call us "breadow."
No, you don't.
Look, he's really cool.
He's friends with Scott. Go talk to him.
Or I could follow my six-month plan.
Okay, so month one, follow him everywhere.
Month two, discover his interests.
Month three, become interested in his interests.
- Month four... - Meadow! Just go talk to him.
You're the one who convinced me to talk to Scott when I was too nervous.
That was you. I'm a mess!
Any guy would be lucky you wrote a six-month plan to meet him.
But don't tell him about that.
I know! You love karaoke.
Ask him to go to that karaoke cafe.
- Really? - Totally! You got this!
Come on, it'll be fine. He'll think you're cute.
(Overlapping chatter)
Uh, hey.
Hey.
Karaoke!
What?
Uh, what I meant to say was...
Karaoke!
She's great, huh?
Karaoke!
And single.
(Imitating flying and shooting noises)
Well, hello, little girl.
Are you ready to watch Michelle's four-hour slide show?
- (Laughs) - Laugh it up, funny boy.
Because you're the one who's going to be watching it, not me.
Come again?
You're going to turn yourself into an illusion of me and go in my place.
You owe me, and it's time to pay up.
Yeah, I don't think so.
Remember that time you got stuck possessing a dog?
You would've been hauled away by the dog catcher if it wasn't for me.
(British accent) Enjoying your tea, lord barkley?
(British accent) Yes, but you said there'd be biscuits.
(Normal voice) I owe you one, Frankie.
(Deep voice) So it looks to me, little boy,
like you're going to be watching that four-hour slide show.
(Laughs) Jupiter man, away!
Meadow, I'm telling you, it wasn't so bad.
Brett thought you were cute.
- He said that? - He might have.
Who knows what he says when we're not around?
(Sighs)
I'm just horrible under pressure.
You just need to boost your confidence.
Yeah, but how do I do that?
You could practice with a friend.
How about Miles?
Did someone say my name?
I'm asking because I definitely was not just eavesdropping.
So you need help with this Brett guy?
She's supercomfortable around you, and that's how she needs to be with Brett.
Sure, tell me what he's like, so I can make it as real as possible.
Well, he's cool, cute, and mysterious. (Giggles)
So just be myself. Got it.
Whew.
Hey, red.
'Sup?
Karaoke!
(Cell phone rings)
Sorry, this is Scott. Be right back.
This is going...
So did you want to ask me something?
I'm not sure I'll be able to answer,
'cause I'm very... Mysterious.
(Chuckles) Okay, I'll play along.
So what do you do for fun, Mr. mystery man?
Oh, I do stuff.
Real cool stuff.
Speaking of which, do you have the time?
- No. - I do.
It's half past "I'm awesome."
(Both laugh)
But seriously, it's 4:30.
This is fun, Miles.
Just laughing with you makes me less nervous.
Good, because you have no reason to be shy.
You're smart, pretty.
Any guy would be lucky to spend time with you.
Thanks, Miles. That's really sweet.
And you haven't even seen my cool walk.
Watch this.
Ooh. Oh, yeah.
(Laughs)
It's nergal time!
If you get electrocuted, we probably won't be able to do this.
Oh, don't worry. I'm being very careful.
Good. (Sighs)
- (Imitating flying noises) - Going to the bathroom!
Good, you're here.
I've got an arcade calling my name,
and you've got 5,000 years of hathaway history to suffer through.
So be me already.
Fine.
Love that.
But my mom might notice.
(Sighs)
Why couldn't Miles owe me a favor?
You did it!
(Deep voice) Aw, yeah.
Wait, that's not right.
(Clears throat) Okay, now I'm ready.
This is awesome!
Like looking at a mirror at my less-intelligent self.
You got that right. (Laughs)
Hey.
Hey, good idea to use the bathroom, sweetie.
Now you can sit through the whole four hours uninterrupted.
(Dramatic music)
The year was 1712...
B.C.
Dang it.
The hathaways had to decide...
the Nina, the pinta,
or the Santa Maria?
(Cell phone alert beeps)
Whoa! The kite festival's been rescheduled!
I didn't miss the haunt! Go, Louie. Go, Louie.
I'm very happy for my friend.
Festival's off? That means Louie's home.
- I'll go get him. - Oh, no! I'm on it.
Oh. Well, this is great.
We'll start back at the beginning.
- Ta-da! - Taylor, you look amazing.
You're picking up garbage in that?
And I found a way to not touch trash while doing it.
Allow me to dispose of your napkin.
I'm getting better.
So did you ask him out yet?
Not yet, but I will.
Today's the day I ask the guy I like to karaoke.
Yay! I'm so glad. Well, I gotta run.
- Bye. - Okay.
- Hey, Meadow. - Oh, Miles, good.
Uh, thanks again for yesterday.
No problem. I can tell you the time whenever you want.
It's 2:19.
- That's two-one-niner. - (Laughs)
So I had question for you.
I wanted to see if you'd like to go to karaoke with me.
Like go out in public together?
That's sort of what I'm asking.
Uh, yeah. I mean, sure.
Because that's what solid, visible people like us do, right?
Can we sit in the back where it's dark and not so crowded?
Ooh, Miles, that would be nice.
Forgot my grabber thingy.
Where are you two going?
Karaoke. I asked Miles, and he said yes.
Wait, what?
I thought you said you were gonna to ask out the guy you like.
I just did.
Yesterday we totally connected, thanks to you.
I can't wait to learn everything about him.
That's what I'm afraid of.
Stupid Frankie. Now what am I gonna do?
Frankie, did you find Louie?
Nope, he must not be here!
I mean found me!
Dang it!
Oh, man, how am I going to be me and Frankie?
Mr. dobson?
Dad, I thought you had a parent-teacher conference.
So did I.
All this guy wants to talk about is joining my band.
I'm telling you, Ray-Ray, a pan flute always brings in the babe-a-rinos.
(Plays pan flute)
No flute.
And don't call me Ray-Ray.
Pops, I need a favor.
Anything for you, son.
Turn yourself into Frankie and watch Michelle's slide show with me.
Not in a million years.
But, dad, you saw how excited she was.
She'd be crushed if she found out Frankie ditched out on her.
Fine, I'm in.
Marty, you better be gone when I get back.
(Sighs)
Okay, son, let's do this! (Chuckles)
Wow, you're terrible.
Just be me and I'll be Frankie.
Dang! I'm one fine-looking ghost.
And talented, too.
Your hands are plungers, son.
This way we can talk and not be bothered.
Ooh, privacy. Nice.
You really want to sit back here?
- It's gotta be lonely. - Lonely?
I couldn't think of anyone I'd want to sit with more.
Healthy self-esteem. Good for you.
What would you like to drink?
Iced vanilla blended, no sugar, extra whip, and butterscotch drippings.
Attagirl, treat yourself.
Excuse me.
Are you just going to ignore my friend?
It's okay. I don't like caffeine.
It gets me all crazy jittery.
(Laughs)
Okay. I'm all good.
Are you?
Oh! I'm sorry. I'm with her.
Oh, good. I'm just glad she's got a friend.
I've been trying to put a good face on it, but that is pretty sad.
Hey, Meadow, Miles.
Taylor, what are you doing here?
Just wanted to see how my buds are getting along.
Great. You can go now.
You got it, as soon as my iced tea gets here.
You know what's funny?
You guys are complete opposites when you think about it.
Take karaoke.
Meadow, you love singing, but Miles, yikes.
Don't let this guy near a mic. Am I right?
She's right. I'm terrible.
But you came anyway?
Aw, you are so thoughtful.
(Laughs) Speaking of astronomy,
Miles, it's, like, one of your favorite things.
But Meadow here is afraid of the dark.
So good-bye stargazing if you're hanging with this chicky.
She's right.
- I'm a huge scaredy-cat. - Mm-hmm.
Well, the sun is actually our closest star.
So even when it's dark out, just know that a big, wonderful fireball
is always burning brightly nearby.
That comforts me.
Okay, feeling a little left out here.
Next up on the karaoke mic, Meadow.
(Applause)
Here I go. Wish me luck.
Wow, you two are really getting along.
Yeah, Meadow's great.
You know what? I can't interfere.
If you guys want to be a couple, I'm not going to get in your way.
Cool, thanks.
A couple of what?
A couple. I mean, you're on a date.
What? This isn't a date.
We're just friends. I don't like her like that.
Miles, she thinks this is a date.
She likes you. Like-likes you.
Taylor, I'm not clueless.
If she like-liked me, I think I'd know.
This song is dedicated to my new guy.
Miles, this is for you.

♪ Because your kiss, your kiss I can't resist ♪

Uh-oh.

So glad you could join us, Louie.
No problem, Michelle.
Is what Louie should say.
I'm starting back at the beginning.
Just imagine you haven't seen any of this yet.
If only that were possible.
(Dramatic music)
The year was 1712 b.C.
(Electricity zaps)
Piece of junk. Is Ray here?
He knows where to kick the TV to make it work.
(Laughs) He is pretty handy.
Ha ha ha ha!
- I'll go get him. - Uh, wait!
You stay here. I have questions about your...
our relatives. Let Louie get him.
(Laughs) That's me. I'm Louie.
Hey, baby. Like my style?
Marty!
I wasn't trying on your dad's hats.
It's me, Ray.
Hey, you.
Listen, I need a favor.
You have to turn into me, go downstairs, and kick the TV.
Come on, Ray, I'm a respected educator.
You can play your stupid flute in my band for one song.
Rock and roll!
Let's get kicking! Ow. Oh.
I think I pulled something.
(Sighs)
Good.
Let's do this, Marty.
I know, I'm just trying...
whoa. Who do we have here?
Just kick the TV, dad.
Hold on just a sec.
So, green eyes, have you ever taken a moonlit walk
accompanied by the stirring sounds of the pan flute?
Ray, are you feeling okay?
And what's with the glasses?
They help me to focus in on beauty.
(Growls)
Okay. Okay.

I can't believe I didn't know she liked me.
There were no signs.
Does she laugh hard at your jokes?
Well, yeah, but come on, my jokes are...
oh.
I mean, I feel bad.
I like Meadow but as a friend.
I'm still not over Mirabelle.
(Applause)
So did you like my song?
Meadow, I think we need to talk.
Taylor, can you give us some privacy?
Oh, right. Duh.
- Oh, you meant me. - Yeah.
So, Meadow, I think you're amazing and funny and pretty and nice
and a really good friend.
Oh.
Friend. Got it.
Well, I still have feelings for another girl who recently moved away.
I wish I was over her, but I'm not.
Of course. I totally get it.
Thanks for being honest, Miles.
- We good? - You got it, lady.
(Chuckles)
Well, that was embarrassing.
So it didn't work out.
The great thing is, you worked up the nerve
to talk to a guy, ask him out, even sing to him onstage.
That's confidence.
I guess it is.
- I'm so proud of you. - Thanks, Taylor.
Brett's here!
You should totally go talk to him.
Remember, you had a six-month plan for this guy.
You're right. I can do this.
- Hey, Brett. - Hey, Meadow.
Karaoke!
Wow, Brett showed up at the perfect time.
Or ten minutes after I texted him.
Turns out he like-likes her.
You're good.
This could have been really awkward for Meadow.
You know, poor kid falling for a fun-loving charmer like me,
when it could never be.
Okay if I take this chair?
Please do.
It's a tale as old as time... girl meets ghost,
girl falls for ghost, girl is pining for...
why do I spend so much time in the attic when it's so foxy down here?
Ray, stop acting weird and just kick the TV.
While he does that, could you grab some popcorn for the big finale?
Oh, we are hours away from the finale.
But popcorn might be nice.
Everybody snap back.
Marty, quit saying those things to Michelle.
It's creeping everyone out.
There's a goddess in the kitchen who might say otherwise.
Who's ready for some yummy popcorn?
Michelle, I'd like to introduce you
- to the bicep brothers. - Hey.
Put those away, Ray. They're for special occasions.
Aah!
What is going on here?
- We're what's going on here. - We're done, Marty!
Get out of my house before I kick my own butt!
Hey, Louie, how'd it go with...
I left something...
In New York. Bye!
Don't move, Frankie.
Or Frankie with a horn.
Or lame Louie. Or creepy Ray.
(Plays pan flute)
I'm going. But I feel like we connected.
Ray's got my digits. (Mouthing words)
I don't know exactly what all that was about, but I have a pretty good idea.
So are you mad?
