Ghoulies (episode)

**Ghoulies** is the eighth episode of the first series.

## Plot

Berk is in his closet with Boni, who Berk uses as a makeshift candleholder. Berk is amazed by the assortment of items inside, but Boni tells Berk that the items could do with a thorough dusting. Berk tells Boni to stay put, as Berk has a rummage. Berk finds some things, which he thinks will come in useful, and he suddenly finds an old spell-book. Berk shows Boni the book. Boni tells Berk that it is a book, but Berk wants to know what type of book it is. Boni tells Berk that it is a book of spells, and wisely tells Berk to not fool around with the book. Berk finds an interesting spell, and he encourages Boni to read it. Boni refuses, so Berk reads the spell himself.

Boni’s candlelight suddenly blows out, and a loud thumping sound echoes through the castle. The Thing Upstairs yells angrily at Berk to stop the noise, so Berk goes to see what is causing it. Berk and Boni return to the cellar. They see the trap door coming to life, repeatedly opening and closing itself, and slamming itself against the floor. Berk wonders why it is doing that, and Boni says that it was the spell that caused it. Drutt runs too close to the trap door, he is slammed multiple times, and becomes properly squashed. Drutt pops out, as Berk asks him if he is alright, and Drutt runs off.

Some worms emerge from the trap door. There is a sudden flash, and a trio of mischievous green Ghoulies also appear. Probably mistaking the Ghoulies for some floating worms, Drutt tries to catch them. When Boni tells Berk to fetch the spell-book, so Berk can undo the spell, one of the Ghoulies turns Boni upside down. Berk looks for the book in the closet, and he successfully finds it. Berk races back to the cellar, and he sees Boni and Drutt levitating. Berk asks Boni why him and Drutt are floating. Boni tells Berk to read the spell backwards, so that Berk can undo the spell. Berk does exactly that. With a sudden flash of lightning, the Ghoulies disappear. The book also disappears. After Boni and Drutt land on the ground, Berk comments on how well the spell turned out.

## Trivia

* Unlike all of the other characters from the TV series, who are animated in stop-motion, the Ghoulies are all hand-drawn.
* Animator Nigel Davies, known for animating the “Eyes in the Dark”, may have actually been the animator for the Ghoulies.
* When Berk summons the Ghoulies, there are a total of three Ghoulies that appear. When Berk later causes the Ghoulies to disappear, incidentally, there are a total of five Ghoulies.

Trap Door Wiki

## Welcome to the Wiki

This is the wiki for the classic 80's cartoon Trap Door

## Describe your topic

The world of *The Trap Door* is solely inhabited by monsters, and almost all action takes place in the monsters' castle, and especially the pantry or cellar where lives Berk, the central character. Beneath the castle is a series of dark and mysterious caverns inhabited by all manner of "horrible things", accessible by the eponymous trap door.

The master of the castle, "The Thing Upstairs", resides in the attic of the castle and remains an unseen character throughout the entire show, shouting orders to Berk when hungry or annoyed. Berk has two companions, Boni and Drutt. In most episodes, Berk accidentally leaves the trap door open, admitting a more troublesome monster than himself; but some monsters open it from below. Though mostly hostile or mischievous, the monsters emergent from the trap door include the amiable and periodic Rogg and occasionally others as harmless as he.

The Thing Upstairs

**The Thing Upstairs** is Berk’s master, and the show’s general main antagonist. He is one of the main characters in the series, and plays a central role in near every episode, despite being almost entirely offscreen throughout the entire show.

He is voiced by the late Willie Rushton, who provided voices for all other speaking characters in the television series.

## Personality

The Thing Upstairs is characterised as an irascible, bad-mannered and lazy being. He spends nearly all his time in his bedroom, and seldom ever leaves the castle. Much like any bedridden person, he is rather limited in doing many everyday tasks by himself. He leaves any dirty work for Berk, his only servant, to do for him. He is never happy, unless if any job that he instructs Berk to do has been done right. The Thing Upstairs hates any kind of intrusion, and he will especially lose his temper when woken up. He will get his anger out on Berk, even if Berk is not responsible for any disruption.

## Trivia

* The Thing Upstairs talks in a Cockney London English accent.
* Although we never see the Thing Upstairs onscreen, much of what he looks like is described in detail. Occasionally, we are even exposed to a few of his bodily features.
	+ A few of the Thing Upstairs’ detachable features are present onscreen in some episodes. One of his fangs is seen in *The Pain*, and his largest eyeball is shown in *Not Very Nice*. Coincidentally, both of these episodes are the episodes that reveal that the Thing Upstairs has multiple heads.
	+ In one very short scene from *The Little Thing*, we are briefly exposed to a lump of gooey mass sticking out of an upstairs room. This might actually be a section of the Thing Upstairs, although this is never verified.
	+ Berk mentioned the Thing Upstairs “flying home” for breakfast, in *Slightly Weird*, indicating that the Thing Upstairs possibly has wings.
	+ In *The Stupid Thing*, it is revealed by Berk that the Thing Upstairs has three large lumps on his back.
* The Thing Upstairs has proven to have some level of mobility, despite his laziness, since he occasionally leaves the castle.

Dakota

**Dakota** is a minor character in *Tuca & Bertie**.* She makes her first appearance in *The New Bird* in **Season 1**.

## Bio

### Physical Appearance

**Dakota** is a twenty-two-year-old female Canary with bright yellow feathers and a pink beak. She is four feet tall, according to her model sheet.

She wears a lavender peter-pan collar button-down shirt that has a front purple tie, and white trim at the collar and sleeves, a navy knee-length suspender skirt, lavender socks, and brown-and-tan heeled shoes.

### Personality

**Dakota** is a shy, somewhat naïve young country-gal. Like Bertie, she has anxiety and a passion for baking. She views Bertie as a role model, until she fails to warn her about Pastry Pete when he physically overpowered her and pushed her head towards a boiling pot. When he does that to her she drops the f-word and calls him a creep, showing she can stand up for herself.

## Background

Dakota grew up in the country and attended a culinary arts college.

### Season 1

In *The New Bird**,* she arrives in Tuca and Bertie's home town full of hopes and dreams. She becomes Pastry Pete's new apprentice after walking past the bakery and seeing Bertie perform her pastry making technique for crünts. This makes Bertie jealous but Speckle convinces her to give Dakota a chance and mentor her, and suggest meeting her the next day.

Dakota shows up and is revealed to be wearing the same comfort shoes Bertie has for her anxiety, with Dakota wearing them because she was nervous to meet her. They spend the rest of the day bonding and Bertie mentors Dakota at the bakery, with Dakota convincing and assisting her in making "chouquettis," which become a huge hit. At the end of the day Dakota thanks Bertie for her mentorship and hopes she can become half the woman she is.

However, later after Pastry Pete returns he does the same thing he did to Bertie in "Plumage", where he asks Dakota to take a look at a roux he is preparing and physically overpowers her by grabbing her head and pushing her closure inside the boiling pot. She quickly pushes him off and demands to not touch him and calls him a creep, and she storms out.

Bertie runs out to an upset Dakota pacing outside, and she’s furious after Bertie reveals he did the same thing to her and didn’t warn her. Bertie tries to claim that’s just part of the job and he’s just passionate, but Dakota questions why she’s defending him. She says she looked up to her, and she runs away.

## Trivia

* Dakota being a canary is likely because of the expression a "canary in a coal mine," where canaries were taken down into mines and when it died that meant here was a gas leak:
	+ She makes Bertie realize Pastry Pete’s behavior is predatory after Bertie sees her go though it and she chews her out over not warning her, and likely saving her from more abuse in the future.
* Dakota was born on a Wednesday.
* Dakota is 22 years old.
	+ She's had all her birthdays at the Nests of Netherfield theme park.
* Her nickname is Dakota with an 'h.'

The Thing Upstairs has a large garden of strange and sentient vegetables, who are temporarily gathered together in an empty room of the castle.

Thort, who is the Thing Upstairs’ largest and favourite vegetable, is also part of the garden, but is a generally separate part of it, and is located on the other side of the room.

Without any explanation as to why, Berk later allocates the Garden Plants, along with Thort, down the trap door.
