Fetch'll have to wait.

We've got a monster to watch!

[ stops playing ]

All right!
We're watching
Hugo and Fig!

Yes!

[ honks ]

- Whoo-whoo!
- Let's go!

Roy:
Here we are,
the Ooga house.

[ gasps ]
Esme and Roy are here!

[ Hugo toots ]

- Hugo!
- Hey, buddy!

They're here!
They're here!

[ all laughing ]

Don't you just love monsters?

Thanks for coming,
monster-sitters.

I'm off to help Grammy Swoozle
clean her attic.

But I'll be back soon.
[ laughs ] Bye, guys!

- Have fun!
- Bye, Dad!

Love you!

So, what's all this?

I set up my very own
arts and crafts store!

I call it...
[ toots fanfare ]

- Hugo's Arts and Crafts Store!
- Good name!

Over here
you'll find the crayons,

over here is the paint,

and over here
are the googly eyes.

At Hugo's Arts
and Crafts Store,

we make sure
they're extra googly.

Wow, Hugo!
Your shop looks amazing!

And what
a great selection!

Just look at this crayon.

So yellow and perfectly,
uh... worn in!

Wait a minute!

Do you wanna help me
with my store?

- Sure.
- We'd love to!

Great! Esme, you can
tell everyone

all about my shop.

I'm on it. [ whistles ]

Come one, come all,

to the greatest
art supply shop
in Monsterdale!

Perfect! And Roy,

once people decide
what they want,

you can put everything
in a bag for them.

Oh boy, oh boy,
oh boy, oh boy!

I'm great at
putting things
in bags! See?

- [ Fig laughs ]
- How about you, Figgles?
Do you want to help?

Fig help!

Great. Let's see.

Oh! You can be my official
crayon organizer.

Your job is to make sure
all the crayons

- are nice and neat.
- OK!

And I'll be the boss.

[ tooting fanfare ]

This is gonna be
the best arts and crafts store

this block has ever seen!

This crayon go here,

and this crayon go here.

Oopsies!

Ooh-hoo-hoo! A rock.

Ooh! Another rock! And another!

Open this bag,
and open this bag...

Keep up the good work,
everybody!

Uh, Fig, why are you
putting rocks on the table?

Fig helping. Fig sell rocks.

See? There's this rock,

and this rock--

[ gasps ]
Pretty rock.

Oh, no, no, no, Figgles.

We don't sell rocks at
Hugo's Arts and Crafts Store.

We only have arts...
and crafts.

And bags!
Who wants a bag?

Nobody? OK.

[ both giggling ]

But Fig love rocks.

Sorry, Fig.

There's just no room
for rocks in my store.

Oh. OK.

Fig put rocks over here.

Thanks, Figgles.

I think you'll have
much more fun

if you just stick
to organizing crayons.

Hugo: Huh?

Look, Hugo.

Fig doing rock shop!

Fig, you're making
an entire shop for rocks?

Uh-huh.

Poor Fig
doesn't know anything

about running a store.

Nobody's gonna
want rocks.

I don't know, Hugo.
I like rocks.

Me too!

Especially in a bag.

- Hugo want rock?
- Sure, Fig.

I'll be
your first customer.

I might be
her only customer.

Let's see.

I'll take that one.

That a good rock.

Thanks, Fig.

Now I gotta get back
to running my own store.

But good luck!

And if you ever
want your old job back,

it's not too late!

Thanks for shopping!

A little this way.
A little that way.

Perfect.

Oh, hey, Hugo.
Nice rock!

Thanks. But Fig's going
to be so disappointed

when she finds out that
nobody else wants rocks.

I mean, they're rocks.

That monster seems
pretty interested.

Rock for you!

Thanks, Fig.
[ gasps ] I love it!

- [ lady humming ]
- [ Hugo gasps ]

What?! Fig got a customer?

Before me?

Why didn't she shop
at my store?

Pardon me,
Mrs. Monster,

but did you notice
my arts and crafts store?

It's got every
art supply you need!

Oh, that sounds lovely,

but I'm up to my eyeballs
in art supplies.

Thanks anyway.

[ sighs ] She didn't
need any arts!

Or crafts!

Don't worry, Hugo.

I bet the next monster
who comes along

will need lots
of art supplies.

Whoa! Cool rocks,
little Figgles!

What?!

Fig has another customer?!

Norm want this rock,
this rock, or this rock?

I'll take...
all of 'em!

Yay!

Thanks for
the neat rocks, Fig!

- See ya later!
- Bye!

Hi, Norm, could I interest you
in any art supplies?

Maybe a well-sharpened crayon?

Or some super-sticky glue?

Aw, man!
That's so nice!

But I just stocked up
on art supplies.

Plus, my hands
are full.

Maybe next time!

I can't believe it!

[ tooting ]

I'm losing customers...
to rocks!

[ tooting ]

Fig is putting me
out of business!

[ tooting ]

And I was never even
in business!

[ tooting hysterically ]

Uh-oh! Monster meltdown!

Aw, Hugo.
I know you're upset,

but I've got something
that'll help.

It's a glitter jar.

Here. Shake it.

♪ When the glitter
starts to fall like snow ♪

♪ Take a deep breath,
nice and slow ♪

[ inhales, exhales ]

♪ Watch as it settles
all around ♪

♪ And feel your body
calming down ♪

- [ inhales, exhales ]
- Feel better?

Uh-huh.
Thanks, Esme.

But the monsters
have spoken.

They want rocks,
not art supplies.

Guess I'd better
close up shop.

So long, crayons.

Goodbye, paint.

Aww. Adios, googly eyes.

Just look at Hugo.

- He's so sad.
- [ sighs ]

I wish we could find a way
for both Fig and Hugo

to have customers.

What'll we do?
What'll we do?

[ gasps ]

Ooh! Pretty green rock!

Oh, yeah.

Green like a frog.

- See?
- Hee hee!

Froggy rock!
Hop! Hop! Hop!

[ gasps ] Wait a monster minute!
That's it!

I know how both of you
can get lots of customers!

You can make a new store
and work together.

Hugo and Fig:
Work together?

Yeah! You can use
Hugo's art supplies
and Fig's rocks

to make a store
of rock animals!

What do you say?

- Yes!
- Yes, please!

That's a great idea!

Can I still be
in charge of bags?

[ laughs ]
Sure, Roy.

Get ready, guys.

It's playtime.

[ whistles ]

[ music playing ]

Wow! Our store
looks great!

I'm so happy,
I could burst into song!

In fact...

Now all we need
are some customers!

That shouldn't
be a problem.

[ Hugo gasps ]

Yes! [ toots ]

Welcome, everybody!

Whoo!
I'll take that one!

Please! Take whichever one
you want!

There's plenty
for everyone!

- Plenty!
- This is brilliant!

Which one of you
came up with
such a good idea?

I did!
Um, with my sister, Fig.

We make a great team!

Oogo.

Well, Roy,
we've done it again.

And, ya know, I think
I even learned

a little something
about myself.

Oh, yeah?
What's that, big guy?

I've got a future
in this bagging thing!

[ laughs ]
Looking good!

[ both laugh ]

Esme:
"Bedtime for Hugo."

[ Esme humming ]

It's here! It's here!
It's finally here!

Ooh!
What is it?

It's my Monster
Beauty Sleep Kit!

See? It comes
with fuzzy slippers,

a toothbrush
for polishing my fang,

and a slime mask
guaranteed to make
my monster fur sparkle!

- Hee hee!
- Once I start getting
my beauty sleep,

you won't even recognize me!

I'll be a whole new--

- Aah!
- What?!

What is it?

I think I saw...
a monster!

[ laughs ] Roy,
you are a monster.

You just saw yourself
in the mirror.

Oh, right. [ laughs ]

[ monster-case playing ]

[ gasps ]
We've got a monster to watch!

[ stops playing ]

Yes! Tonight
we're watching Hugo!

All right!

[ honks ]

[ both laugh ]

- Come on!
- Let's roll.

- Whoo!
- Yeah-ha-ha!

Here we are. Hugo's house.

Can I ring the doorbell
this time?

You got it.

[ foghorn blasts ]

Esme and Roy are here!

- Hi, Hugo!
- Hey, buddy!

Come on! Baby Fig
is already asleep,

but Dad said
I can stay up
and play!

That's right!
Whooooa!

- Hey, Mr. Ooga!
- Nice skates!

Thanks. I'm meeting Mrs. Ooga

at the Monsterdale
Roller Riiiiink!

Hugo can play
a little while longer...

whoa...

but he needs to be asleep

by the time we get back.
Yaaah!

You've got it.

When it comes to bedtime,

we're on the case.

The pillow case.

Oh! Thanks a ton.

See ya soooooon!

- Bye!
- See ya later!

Bye, Dad!

OK, Hugo, we've got
a little time before bed.

What game do you
want to play?

I've got a great idea!

Come on, explorers.

Your golden treasure
must be around here somewhere.

Just be careful
not to step in hot lava!

Ooh! Hot, hot, hot!

[ gasps ] I see it!
I see the golden treasure!

- Whoa.
- Wow.

Gotcha!

- You did it!
- Yay!

[ clock cuckoos ]

OK, Explorer Hugo,

that sounds means
it's time to get ready for bed.

Yep. You've gotta
put on your PJs,

brush your teeth,
and get under the covers.

Bedtime? Now?

But... I don't want
to go to bed.

I want to play with
my monster-sitters!

I know you want
to keep playing,

but all little monsters
need their rest.

So let's get you ready.

Wait! I just thought of a song
I want to play you!

[ takes deep breath ]

[ tooting melody ]

That's great, Hugo.

Wait. I have a new dance
I want to show you!

♪ Da-da-da-da-da-da-da ♪

♪ Da-da-da-da-da-da ♪

Nice moves!
But we gotta get you--

Wait, wait, wait.
I just want to...

um... uh...

I forget.

But let's just play
until I remember.

- Hugo: OK?
- Is it just me,

or is Hugo
avoiding bedtime?

[ laughs ]
Nice try, Hugo.

But we gotta get you
ready for bed.

[ sighs ]

OK.

[ gasps ]

Introducing...

the Great Hugini!

Does the Great Hugini
want to wear
his train pajamas?

Or his planet PJs?

[ gasps ]
Such good choices!

How will he choooose?

Behold as the Great Hugini
makes the pajamas...

disappear!

[ gasps ]
Where did they go?

Hugo.

You gotta admit,
that Hugo's got talent.

Wait a minute.
Where is Hugo?

I can't possibly
go to bed

without a snack.

Can I have a snack?

Please, oh, please,
with a cherry on top?

OK. One snack,

and then you need
to get ready for bed.

OK, Hugo,
what do you want to eat?

Hmm.

I'd like some
frizzleberries, please.

You got it.

- Got 'em.
- No, wait.

I think I'd like
stinky cheese instead.

Actually, can I have carrots?

Scratch that.

I think I'll have
a homemade corn muffin

with a side of fresh slime

and a warm glass of milk,
please.

Um, Hugo,
you can choose one snack.

[ sighs ] OK, OK.

In that case,
I'll have a graham cr*cker.

Roy:
One graham cr*cker,
comin' up.

Ooh! Thank you.

Mmm. So good!

[ snoring ]

I'm pretty sure
Hugo's avoiding bedtime.

Ahhh.

OK. You finished your snack,

so let's get you
ready for bed.

But I don't want
to go to bed!

I'm not... [ yawns ]

sleepy.

Are you sure
you're not sleepy?

That sounded like
a sleepy yawn to me.

No. That wasn't a yawn.

[ yawns ]

That was just a, um,

slow hiccup.

If you say so.

Now, come on.

It's time to
brush those teeth.

All right, Hugo,
I've got your toothbrush.

- [ whirring ]
- Um, Hugo?

Whoo! Look at this!

It's Superduck!

Psssh! Quack-quack-
quack-quack!

Psst. Roy.

I think it's time
for our monster-sitter
bedtime song.

Your song was great and all,

but I'd like to make
a few small changes.

I'll need a bowling ball,
a tuba, a helmet,

and just a few toys!

And while you get
those things set up,

I'll warm up my voice!

♪ Mi-mi-mi-mi! ♪

- Whoa!
- [ crash ]

OK!

I know you want
to stay up longer, Hugo,

but you really need to rest

so you can play
all day tomorrow!

Right now,
it's time for bed.

Bed?! [ toots ]

I can't possibly go to bed!
[ toots ]

There's too much to see!
[ toots ]

Too much to play!
[ toots ]

Too much life to live!

- [ tooting ]
- Uh-oh. Monster meltdown.

I know you're
disappointed, Hugo,

but it'll be OK.

We have to get Hugo in bed
before Mr. and Mrs. Ooga
get home!

I know,
but Hugo really doesn't
want to go to sleep.

What'll we do?
What'll we doooo?

Hugo:
Are you guys sure

we can't keep playing?

This monster's ready

for another adventure!

An adventure?

Wait a monster-minute,

that's it!

Maybe we don't have
to stop playing,

if we make getting ready for bed
an adventure!

[ gasps ]
A bedtime adventure!

That sounds...
[ toots fanfare ]
great!

Then get ready, guys.

It's playtime.

Esme:
No peeking.

Oh, that's good.

Esme:
OK, Explorer Hugo.

[ gasps, toots ]

In this adventure,

we're searching for
the rare bedtime treasure.

Ooh-hoo-hoo!
Bedtime treasure.

No one's ever
been able to find it.

But according to legend,

the first clue is hidden
on a musical instrument.

Musical instrument.

Hmm. Musical instrument.

[ gasps ] The piano
is a musical instrument!

The first clue!

I found it!

Will you read it
to me, Roy?

Yep. It says,
"Prepare for an adventure

with flying and leaping

by putting on clothes
you wear when you're sleeping."

Clothes you wear
when you're sleeping.

[ gasps ] I need to
put on my pajamas!

Huh. I put on my pajamas,

but where's the next clue?

I think I see it.

Oh, there it is.

[ giggles ]
What does it say?

It says, "In order to find
a treasure tonight,

make sure your teeth
are clean and white."

Make sure my teeth
are clean and white.

I have to brush my teeth!

Look at me!
I'm brushing my teeth.

[ spits ]

[ gasps ]
The next clue!

Here, Roy.

"You're getting close now,

but to move on ahead,

turn on the light
you keep by your bed."

The light I keep
by my bed.

My nightlight!

Here it is!

Whoa! There's an "X"
on my pillow!

Esme:
"X" marks the spot.

Bedtime treasure,
here I come!

Explorer Hugo has to leap
over the pit of snakes

and fly across
the sea of sharks!

And finally,
dig for buried treasure!

[ gasps ] I found it!

I found the bedtime treasure!

- Yay, Hugo!
- All right!

That was so much fun!

Playing explorer is...

really, really...

really... [ yawns ]

Help me
get ready for bed.

I think I'm ready
to go to sleep now.

Esme:
Sounds good.

Wait!

Good night,
Esme and Roy.

- Nightie-night, Hugo.
- Good night.

Sleep tight.

If you start to get too cold,

I want your monstersitters
to take you home to warm up.

Uh-oh, Roy!
He must be getting cold.

Can we stay
just a little bit longer?

Please?

[CHUCKLES] Okay.

But we'll have to find a way
to keep you warm.

ROY:
All you need is a scarf,

a coat,

another scarf...

Did you catch any of that?

ALL: Esme and Roy!
