Group: casper's cool, and you're a dud.

We will drag you through the mud.

Group: casper's cool, and you're a dud.

We will drag you through the mud.

Group: casper's cool, and you're a dud.

We will drag you through the mud.

You can say that again.

[Screaming]

Casper's cool, and you're a dud.

We will drag you through the...

Oh, come on, guys.

You're getting too real.

Woman: tucker, dinnertime.

Ah, mother's meat loaf.

Its warm embrace beckons me.

Honey, I'm home.

[Spitting]

[Grunting]

Oh, maurice, what in the world?

[Laughing]

Sorry.

I just love your cooking.

On your head.

[Laughing]

Hi, honey, I'm... [Screaming].

Did I miss meat loaf?

Go get it, pookie.

[Panting]

[Barking]

You do realize your dog is supposed to be on a leash at all times.

Oh, sorry, officer, but pookie here is so sweet.

He wouldn't hurt a fly.

[Panting]

I guess he is kind of cute.

[Growling]

[Screaming]

[Barking]

You are totally the most baddest dog ever, pookie.

Tonight, I'm watching the romance channel by myself.

[Whining]

[Growling]

[All talking at once]

[Laughing]

Ah, another day, another town turned completely upside down.

[General conversation]

[Meowing]

[Grunting]

[Screeching]

[Horn honking]

[Gasping]

[Screaming]

O.k., g*ng, I know this bus is dirty, but there are easier ways to wash it.

Yay, danny phantom.

There you go.

Wouldn't want you to miss one day of happy, therapy-inducing school memories.

You're a hero, danny phantom.

[Horn honking]

Hero.

Now for the cat.

Oh, probably got scared and ran home.

And speaking of home...

Hmm, that got a tad out of hand.

All I wanted to do was frighten them, and get a laugh or two.

I suppose it's fortunate that nauseating goody-goody was here.

I may have no face of my own, but I'm seen everywhere.

My pranks are the talk of the town.

Good news travels fast.

Too fast.

How dare that fuzzy-wuzzy steal my headline.

Fine.

He wants a contest, he's got one.

Would you look at this nonsense?

Danny phantom saves kids.

That's the fifth heroic act this week.

At least that we know about.

He keeps this up, he's liable to make people forget

He's nothing but a putrid, rancid ball of self-aware protoplasm.

Rancid protoplasm or not, I think it's great that he saved those kids.

Don't be fooled, sweetie.

He's up to something.

Remember that time he att*cked the mayor?

Or stole everyone's christmas presents?

Once a filthy ghost, always a filthy ghost.

Not anymore.

Once this baby is perfected, it'll prevent any ghost from using its powers.

I call it the "ecto-stop-o-power-o-fier."

Am I a genius or what?

Only if you can spell that.

I, for one, think it's nice to have an actual hero in this town.

Yeah, well, if you ask me, he's being pretty egotistical.

[Bell ringing]

Hey, that jack fenton toast is ready.

Maddie, fetch me some jack fenton butter, would you?

The jack fenton flavor, it's my favorite.

I'm now officially nauseous.

Really?

Try some fento bismol.

Danny, don't pay any attention to dad.

I think what you're doing is great.

Thanks, jazz.

Sometimes, I wonder if the best kind of attention is no attention at all.

What?

He can alter his appearance too?

That's my thing.

He's stealing my thing.

Fine.

He steals my glory...

I steal his.

Well, maybe a few news stories aren't such a bad thing, as long as I'm able to maintain a low profile.

[Groaning]

Dude, you're danny phantom?

Can you sign my chest?

It's for my kid.

Uh, ew.

[Gasping]

Hey, it's the ghost boy.

He's cute.

Pookie will be so excited.

[All talking at once]

Uh, i, eat all your vegetables.

[Gasping]

[All talking at once]

Uh, sorry I can't stay.

Uh, wash your hands after using the restroom.

[All talking at once...]

So much for staying in the shadows.

Hey, that's it.

[All talking at once]

At least this way, I'll be totally...

Watch it, "fentertainment tonight."

I'm chasing a real somebody, and you're a total nobody.

Unnoticeable.

Back to square one.

[Sighing]

[Laughing]

Hey, that's... Me?

I'm going ghost.

Where'd i, he, it go?

Ow.

Duh.

Danny, what are you doing here?

I thought you left for school already.

Uh, I did, but I just had to come back and see, um...

That awesome scrapbook.

May i?

Oh, so much work.

Must've taken you a long time.

You bet.

I'd hate to have to do it all over again.

Danny, my scrapbook!

What are you doing?

Scrapping your opinion of me.

How am I doing so far?

[Laughing]

[Grunting]

Get away from my sister.

I just knew he didn't have evil scrapbook-destroying powers.

[Sirens blaring]

The ghost defenses.

That means...

Bingo, maddie.

Putrid protoplasm dead ahead.

And it's after our boy.

Uh, that's right.

I'm your boy, billy.

Danny.

Right.

And this evil ghost is after me.

Help, help.

You want attention, glory hound?

You got it.

What?

Sorry, spook, but I'm very particular about who my kids play with.

Stop.

He's the putrid protoplasm, not me.

Nobody messes with my baby.

Thanks, squeaky-cheeks.

I meant danny.

[Gasping]

[Gasping]

I may have bitten off more than I can chew here.

Block the exits.

[Grunting]

Mom, no!

[expl*si*n]

[Gasping]

There, you see?

We should do family stuff like this more often.

[Panting]

[Groaning]

[Grunting]

Underling, you cannot defeat amorpho.

Amorpho?

I know clowns with scarier names.

[Grunting...]

[Mechanical noises]

[Grunting]

Jack: the trail leads to the lab, maddie.

Uh-oh.

Better they find fenton than phantom.

What the?

Come on.

Change back.

Maddie: jack, this ghost shredder is too heavy for me to lift.

Jack: yeah, that's because I added the extra blades.

Come on, come on.

Jack and maddie: freeze, ghost punk.

You tell us where our boy is.

I wish I knew.

What is going on?

Why can't I change back?

[Screaming]

[Grunting]

What's the deal?

I can't phase either?

[Screaming]

I can't get ahold of danny today.

Do you know where he is?

[Grunting]

Danny?

Sorry.

Listen, I just fought a ghost who looks exactly like me, but he can change how he looks.

And now I can't change back, or turn invisible or intangible.

And you're eating toast.

You hate toast.

What gives?

I can't change back to danny fenton.

Me and the other danny were fighting, and we ran into my dad's "ecto-stop-o-power-o-fier,"

And I think it's taking away our ghost powers.

Does your dad ever invent anything that doesn't mess you up?

Or without a dorky name?

I can't go home.

I can't go to school.

I can't even walk around in public without getting mobbe.

What am I gonna do?

For starters, get some jam.

This is awful dry.

O.k., You're stuck as danny phantom.

It could be worse.

[Crashing]

Attention, adolescents.

This is official fenton business.

Have you kids seen danny?

Uh, danny who?

He was being chased through our house by that awful danny phantom, and now we can't find him.

Danny's not missing.

We just saw him.

Right, tucker?

Yeah, he was, uh, running down the street, away from that jerky danny phantom.

Bingo.

We're on high alert search and rescue mode until we find him.

Let's rock.

[expl*si*n]

Obey all traffic laws.

[Sighing]

Send us the bill.

We'd better figure out how to change you back fast, before more innocent bedroom walls are destroyed.

That means I have to find that other danny, or amorpho, or whatever it is, before it's too late.

[Grunting...]

[Barking]

Why am I unable to revert back to my ghostly form?

Perhaps I can remain as billy fenton.

Maddie: youth of amity park, be on the lookout for danny fenton,

A.k.a. The cutest, sweetest son in the world.

It is our desire to find him post-haste, so that we may shower him with hugs and with kisses.

Uh, yeah, and sports.

You know, guy stuff.

Then again, maybe not.

Everyone will now be looking for him.

Curses.

I need some alone time to figure this out.

I must become someone nobody wants to be around.

Man: yo, peeps.

Could I chill it wit' y'all while I get my eat on?

[Laughing]

Perfect.

Ah, that's the last one for a while.

I've got to get to the bottom of this.

Perhaps the science lab will be of assistance.

Danny?

Danny?

Danny?

Both: danny?

Danny?

Wait.

Mr. And mrs. Fenton.

I just saw danny.

Where did you see him?

Over there.

Oh, ow, oh, the pain.

Danny?

Sweetie?

Mr. And mrs., Uh, mom and dad?

Uh, that ghost, uh, ripped my face off.

I can't let you see me like this.

Danny, wait.

Don't run, danny.

There's nothing to be ashamed of.

I can handle disfigurement.

Yeah, look how well she treats me.

Thanks, sam.

Have some toast.

Nice move, sam.

Like taking toast from a baby.

We'll hold off your parents.

You find that ghost before your parents find you.

I mean, danny.

I mean, danny phantom.

Just go.

Why am I eating this?

[Laughing]

So far, so good.

Disguised as a teacher, I'm a veritable pariah.

Next stop, the science lab.

[Grunting]

Hey there, mr. Lancer, sir.

I couldn't help but notice how shiny your head is today.

[Grunting]

[Laughing]

You get back here.

[Screaming]

[Groaning]

For the yearbook, mr. Lancer.

Uh, mr. Lancer, is this pus?

Lancer, lancer, lancer, lancer.

[Groaning]

[All kids talking at once...]

Where did he go?

[Grunting]

Why don't you watch where you're... [Gasping]

Prince and the pauper.

You're gorgeous.

[Laughing]

[Screaming]

Two mr. Lancers.

Nightmare number has come true.

[Groaning]

Two of someone?

It's got to be amorpho.

But which one is he?

Crowd: hey, it's danny phantom.

Oh no.

[Panting]

[Sighing]

Sam.

Let's turn this marathon into a relay race.

[Panting]

Tell me again why we couldn't take a taxi.

Tell me again why you can't remember where you parked the rv.

Oh no, please don't look at my facelessness.

I must live in exile.

You ever notice that danny kind of runs like a girl?

[All talking at once]

What the?

Whoa.

[Grunting]

So much for that power.

[Grunting]

Hey, it's you.

Uh, yes, citizen.

No, billy.

I'm him.

The ghost who changed into you.

Really?

Awesome.

[Grunting]

I've been looking for you.

We've got to get back to my house before...

There he is.

[All talking at once]

And another one bites the dust.

Let's go.

[Groaning]

Sam.

Danny?

Is that my shirt?

No time to explain.

Just run.

[Crashing]

Freeze, phantom.

Oh no.

You're not the only ghost here, you know.

Mr. Lancer?

Banzai.

[Groaning]

[Shivering]

I hate it when ghosts inv*de your personal space.

Jack... Mr. Lancer, he's a...

Honey, you're right.

Mr. Lancer has been taken over by that putrid protoplasmic punk danny phantom.

Looks like I picked the wrong person to impersonate.

Everyone is after you.

You have no idea.

You know, there are better ways to get noticed.

The next time you want attention, do what humans do.

Streak at sporting events, or go on a reality tv show and eat live bugs for money.

I just wanted to have some fun.

Ruining your life wasn't the best way to go about it, I suppose.

And I just wanted to be left alone.

But if we can't fix this, I don't think I'll ever be left alone again.

We just have to...

[expl*si*n]

Stop in the name of all things pure and non-ecto!

Uh, I can explain.

Mr. Lancer.

What's going on here?

Where's our son?

Yeah, and have you been violated by any putrid protoplasm?

Um, i, uh, that is, um...

Uh, what he means is that he captured me, all by himself.

Him, mr. Lancer.

What?

Um, that's right, and I was just about to dispose of him here in your lab.

Right, but i, uh, escaped.

And I raced after him.

Yeah, and so, now you will pay, you cur.

[Grunting]

Take this.

Ow, ow, ow-ee.

[Computer noises]

[Grunting]

[Coughing]

O.k., Here goes.

All right.

I can change again.

So can i.

I'm me.

And that means, I'm everyone.

[Duck quacking]

[Sighing]

Thanks for the help.

And sorry I wanted all the attention.

Being faceless, sometimes you just want to be noticed,

But I guess it's not so bad sharing the spotlight.

The spotlight?

You can have it.

I'm happy just to blend in.

Just do me a favor.

I'll leave you alone if you promise to never let me see you around here again.

Deal?

Deal.

Cool.

But how will you know if you do?

[Laughing]

Danny.

We're so glad to see you.

How do you feel?

Are you o.k.?

How's your face?

Oh, cute and pinchable as always.

So how'd you get rid of that danny phantom freak anyway, son?

Easy.

I just told him that my parents were the fearsome fentons.

He freaked out, used his powers to patch me up, and brought me home.

Looks like you guys are pretty famous in the ghost community.

Aw, shucks, pal.

It might seem like sunshine and buttered toast at times, but fame isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Yeah, I guess there's such a thing as too much attention.

Where... Where am i?

The weirdest nightmare.

Dreamt there were two of me.

[Scoffing]

That's ridiculous.

When they made me, they broke the mold.

Me, mr. Lancer.

[Women screaming]

Lancer: sisterhood of the traveling pants.

[Grunting]

I don't know how I ended up here.

I don't need this kind of attention.

[Laughing]
