Smile Valley Farm

"Smile Valley Farm" is the first segment of the thirty-sixth episode of the Disney Channel animated series The Ghost and Molly McGee.
==Synopsis==
When Scratch discovers he loves a game he stubbornly refused to try, he must try to hide his growing obsession.
==Plot==
Scratch is baffled by the lack of dinner, or the McGees for that matter, and finds them all in the living room on their smart pads playing a game called Smile Valley Farm, a farming simulator game where you collect rewards and prizes. Scratch cannot wrap his head around the game and finds it dumb, despite the McGees' enthusiasm towards it. Darryl in particular has taken advantage of the promotional minifigures and offers a team up with Sharon to collect and sell them for high prices, beckoning her with the possibility of him going to college. To Darryl's surprise, Sharon obsessively takes to it, declaring that his scheming came from her.
Scratch attempts to have a late night snack when he notices that the game is still on. Bothered by the message it is sending, he decides to play the game so he can "rag" on it, only to play well into the morning. Realizing that he will be caught, Scratch enacts "plan B", which is to simply play in secret and not have the McGees find out. This becomes difficult when Scratch learns of a event that happens at sundown that he wants to have access to, only for Molly to want to devote her time to him. Meanwhile, Darryl and Sharon start selling minifigures and earn lots of money. Darryl warns Sharon about the possibility of the fad passing and tells her to cash out, but she does not listen.
Scratch continuously attempts to evade Molly so that he can play Smile Valley Farm, but it gets increasingly difficult. At one point, Molly brings down the sundown event which begins to eat away at Scratch and he finally admits that he likes playing the game and has been this whole time. Molly also reveals that she knew all along because Scratch accidentally sent her a friend request while playing (he couldn't read Molly's username N_H4P1F13R). They decide to witness the sundown event, but after it finishes, the two have suddenly outgrown the game and decide to go outside. True to Darryl's word, nobody wants minifigures anymore, much to Sharon's dismay.
