Molly Vs. The Ghost World Family/Transcript

== Ghost World ==
()
Jinx: Fire up the Flow. I got a delinquent ghost here.
Lucretia: What's the charge this time? Sleeping on the job?
Jinx: Oh, no, no, no. He is friends... with a living person!
Bartholomew: That is a serious charge.
Grimbella: Deadly serious.
Sir Alister: Let the trial begin! Scratch, how do you plead?
Scratch: How about, "for mercy"?
== McGee Living Room ==
Pete: This is too stressful! I can't afford to pull out any more hair! Darryl, let me pull out yours.
Darryl: Let me bite your fingernails.
Pete: Deal.
Sharon: Settle down, you two. The girls are working on it.
Darryl: We're gonna get Scratch back, right?
== Molly's Bedroom ==
Libby: Breathe in, breathe out. (Molly exhales) Feel your spirit rise beyond this plane of existence. So, are you astral projecting yet?
Molly: Ugh! Not even a little!
Libby: I hate to admit it, but perhaps books don't have all the answers.
Molly: We need someone with firsthand knowledge. Libby, what's the preferred spelling of "Jeff"?
Libby: Oh, uh, well, it's "J-E--"
Geoff: Whoa! Pump the brakes, friends!
Molly: Geoff! Scratch is in trouble.
Geoff: What?! How can I help?
Molly: Take me to the Ghost World.
Geoff: I can't bring humans there. Yeah, I don't even think that's possible. But I promise, I-- Aah!
Molly: I am not taking "no" for an answer! (grunts)
(She jumps through the ghost portal, but nothing happens; suddenly, a ghost form of Molly emerges from her body as she falls to the floor.)
Ghost Molly: Whoa, whuh.. whuh... What just happened?
(Her body sits up, colors faded, bags under eyes, and perpetually frowning and emotionless.)
Libby: (gasps; consults her book) Molly, you're a wraith, a living person who has literally "given up the ghost."
Geoff: Your body's alive, but no one's home.
Molly's Body: I feel nothing.
Ghost Molly: That's creepy. But since I'm not technically human, you can take me to the Ghost World, right?
Geoff: Yeah, I suppose.
Ghost Molly: Yes! Technicalities!
Libby: I'll keep an eye on you, your body, until you get back.
Ghost Molly: Thanks, Libby. Now let's go save Scratch!
(They enter the portal.)
Libby: So, uh, would you like to, uh, do something?
Molly's Body: Eh. Not really.
Libby: OK...
== Ghost World ==
Ghost Molly: Wow. Whee! (laughing)
Molly: This is the Ghost World? It's so... lively.
Bear Ghost: (roars)
Molly: Aah! And... outdated?
Geoff: Ha-ha! Oh, we don't get anything new until it dies. I just got a flip phone.
Geoff: That's where the Ghost Council meets. Scratch'll be there. We've got to be sneaky, which won't be easy with your bright gold joy energy.
Molly: OK, OK, OK, I'll, uh-- I'll try to blend in.
Geoff: Stop touching things! Aah! Remember, joy is like poison here. It's not allowed. Oh, hopefully, nobody saw.
Scratch: We were cursed together, so I had to go everywhere she went.
Jinx: Right. You actually cursed yourself. When I heard about it, I was like, "Wow, can anyone really be that dumb?" And, yeah. Yeah, you are. (gasps) Hey, little Sobgoblin. What you got there?
Jinx: Aah! Aah! This lamp is covered in joy!
Scratch: (gasps) Molly!
Bartholomew: Jinx! Find the joy and eliminate it, quick!
Scratch: (sighs) Don't get caught, Moll.

(door opens)
(both panting)
(snarling)
Geoff: Aah!
Molly: Oh, corn. We're trapped.
Jinx: I just gotta know, McGee. Did you really think you could escape us? 'Cause that golden joy energy of yours is pretty hard to miss. Sobgoblins, drain her!
Molly: (groans) I suddenly feel like giving up.
Geoff: No! We've come too far!
Geoff: Save our best friend, Molly!
Molly: Geoff!
Jinx: Gotcha!
Molly: Ha! Boop!
Jinx: Aah! She touched me!
Molly: I'm coming, Scratch!
Ghost Bouncer: He shoved Chicago-style pizza in my face. I don't like Chicago-style pizza.
Sonia: Scratch helped me achieve my Global Games dreams.
Ghost Doctor: He was suffering from the worst case of joy I've ever seen.
Lucretia: Thank you, Howling Harriet. I couldn't have said it better myself.
Scratch: Are we all just pretending we understood that?
Sir Alister: Enough! Clearly, you've become... happy. Mr. Chairman, sir, your judgment?
Sir Alister: Well, then... An eternity in the Flow of Failed Phantoms for you, Scratch.
Molly: No!
Molly: Let Scratch go!
Scratch: Molly? (gasps) You shouldn't be here.
Molly: (concerned) You don't get to say Scratch is a problem just because he's not like you. Who says ghosts have to be miserable, anyway?
Sir Alister: He does.
Molly: OK. And he's very intimidating. But that doesn't mean that he's right. What if ghosts didn't have to be miserable? What would that be like?
Jinx: This. And no ghost wants this! And as for your traitor friend, into the flow he goes.
Molly & Scratch: Geoff!
Geoff: Bye, friends!
Scratch: How dare you throw my friend into the Flow of Failed Phantoms?! Although, if it was between him and me, you certainly made the right choice.
Jinx: Molly McGee's a menace. Everything she touches turns to joy.
Scratch: You know what? You're right. Molly's way too chipper in the morning.
Molly: It's the "anything is possible" part of the day.
Scratch: And she thinks helping others is the most important thing in the world.
Molly: Only 'cause it is.
Scratch: She thinks you can have more fun being nice than you can have being mean. Which is just crazy. And here's something even crazier. She's right. And I like her for it. She's my friend. And I'm hers. And I don't care who knows it.
Molly: Aw, Scratch!
Sir Alister: Call me soft, but I think it would be unnaturally cruel to separate best friends.
Molly: Yes! Exactly!
Scratch: Thank you!
Sir Alister: So let's send them both to the Flow of Failed Phantoms.
(gasps)
Oh!
(both gasping, grunting)
Scratch: It was nice knowin' ya, Molly! Better than nice. It was the highlight of my afterlife.
Sir Alister: And that, as they say, is that.
Grimbella: Should have done this ages ago, if you ask me.
Lucretia: Well, then, back to work. Jinx, clean yourself up.
Jinx: Yes, ma'am. Nice to see you, Mr. Chairman, sir.
Jinx: What is happening?
Molly: (cackling) You guys made a big mistake. You forgot everything I touch turns to joy!
Jinx: Aah!
Dog Ghost: I'm free! Whoo-hoo!
Molly: And that includes your stupid Flow of Failed Phantoms. Light is more powerful than darkness. Hope is more powerful than fear. Love is more powerful than hate. And joy?
Molly: Joy is way more powerful than misery will ever be! Don't tell me that being friends with a ghost is wrong. You're wrong! Boop.
Scratch: Wha--?
Grimbella: The Chairman!
Geoff: Aah! You saved me! Ha-ha! Bring it in, friends! Aw!
Molly: I'm leaving. And I'm takin' Scratch with me. Anybody got a problem with that?!
Ghost Council & Jinx: No, no, no, no.
Grimbella: No problem at all!
== Molly's Bedroom ==
Molly: Whoo!
Libby: Thank cob, you're back. She was starting to freak me out.
I don't care.
(Molly goes back in her body.)
Molly: Whoa. Aah! Libby, Libby, Libby! You're the best!
Libby: Oh, heh, hello. (chuckles)
(groaning)
Sharon: Scratch! Molly, you did it!
Pete: I always knew you would. And I didn't lose any of my hair over it.
Darryl: Just mine.
Scratch: You should a seen Molly back there! "Take that, Chairman! You want to take my best friend away? I'm gonna en-happify your face!"
Molly: Well, yeah, I did kind of kill the Chairman with kindness. Well, joy.
Scratch: And now, I'm back. (demonic voice) Forever! That's right, McGees! I curse you! (normal; laughs) Just kiddin'. Hey, so who's hungry, huh? You know, I'm feeling like nachos with extra cheese. And not the kind you just heat in the microwave. The good stuff.
Molly: Ooh!
