Guess what!

See my lunchbox?

Ooh! That's nice!

It's special, 'cause I started
big monsters' school this week.

Wow, Hugo!
That's great!

My school doesn't start
until next week.

Thanks for coming,
monster-sitters.

The school bus'll be here
any minute to pick up Hugo,

- and then you and Fig can play!
- Yay!

Oh, and I left
Fig's stroller out

in case you want
to go for a walk.

Oh, a stroller!

I love riding in
a nice, comfy stroller!

It's so relaxing.

Oh. The stroller's for Fig.

[ all laughing ]

Well, I'm off to
my Monsters Who Code Meeting.

See ya!

Be good,
my little Oogas.

- Bye, Mommy!
- Bye-bye, now.

[ horn honking ]

Hi, school bus!

Hi, school bus!

[ toots fanfare ]

Fig loves the school bus.

[ laughing ]
She's not the only one.

- [ horn honking ]
- Hi, school bus!
Hi-i-i-i, school bus!

[ goofy laugh ]

Good morning, little monsters.

Who's ready to ride?

I am! I am!

- Fig: Whoo-hoo!
- [ Esme gasps ]

Fig:
Fig too! Fig too!

Sorry, Figgles.

You're not big enough
to ride the school bus yet.

But we're gonna have
so much fun today, OK?

[ giggles ] OK.

- [ horn honks ]
- Well, that's my cue.

Goodbye! So long!

Bye, 'Ugo! [ tooting ]

[ horn honking ]

OK. The last one inside's
a rotten meatball!

- Ohhh!
- [ thud ]

Are you OK, Roy?

[ laughing ] I'm OK.

I must have tripped over
Hugo's lunchbox.

[ gasps ] You tripped over
Hugo's lunchbox!

He forgot to take it with him.

Uh-oh! No lunch for 'Ugo?

No lunch? No lunch?!

That's terrible! Ohh!

What'll we do,
what'll we dooo?

What do we doooo?

Don't panic, big guy.

We'll just go to Hugo's school
and drop it off.

Oh, whew.

Whew.

[ laughing ] Come on.

We'd better get going

so we're there
in time for lunch.

Look, Fig, we can take
your stroller!

Just have to open it up.

Easy... [ grunts ]

as... [ grunts ] pie! Whoa!

Um, this might be

a little trickier
than I thought.

[ laughing ]
Here, Roy.

[ goofy laugh ]

OK, Fig. Hop in.

Nuh-uh. No thanks.

You don't want to go
in your stroller?

Fig big girl.
Fig walk.

Whoa-oh! Uh...

I don't think she wants
to go in the stroller.

[ laughing ]

How about this, Fig?
We can walk for a little bit,

and then you can get
in your stroller.

- OK?
- OK.

[ laughing ]

Ooh! Pretty leaf!

Aw, that is a pretty leaf,
Figgles.

So pretty. Ah.

Fig, why don't you
take the leaf with you

so we can keep walking?

OK! Fig take leaf.

Boy, oh, boy, I love leaves too!

All the leafy colors.

What's your favorite
leafy color? Fig?

Fig?

This leaf pretty too.

Fig really likes leaves,
huh?

Fig, how ya doin' back there?
Whoa.

Fig good.

It feels like
we've been walking forever!

How far have we gone?

Not very far.

We have to put Fig
in her stroller

so we can get to Hugo
in time for lunch!

OK, Fig, that was
some great walking,

but how about we get you
into your stroller

so we can go a little faster?

Yeah! You can be
my monster helper

and bring Hugo
his lunch.

Fig want to help,

but Fig big girl.

Fig no go in stroller.

Hmm.

[ gasps ]
I have an idea!

Figgles, do you want us
to swing you?

[ gasps ]
Fig swing! Fig swing!

Roy and Esme:
One, two,

three, swing!

Whee! Ha ha!

Again, again!

Whee!

All right.
Now we're gettin' somewhere!

Whoa-h*-h*!

Fig:
One, two,

three, swing!

Well, that didn't work.

What are we going to do, Roy?

Again! Again!

Roy. We've gotta
get Fig in her stroller

so we can drop off
Hugo's lunch.

Don't worry, Esme.

I've got a few tricks
up my sleeve.

Aaah! I don't have sleeves!

[ laughing ]

It's OK, Roy.

We'll figure
something out.

No stroller. Fig big girl.

Look, Figgles.
Dolly wants to ride
in the stroller with you.

[ laughs ]

Roy want to ride in stroller!

Esme:
[ laughs ] Fly, Figgles!

Here comes the buckle!

Just stay still
for one sec.

This isn't
going so well.

OK, Fig,
it's almost lunchtime.

You have to
get in your stroller
so we can help Hugo.

A monster
needs his lunch!

Fig no wanna
go in stroller!

Fig big girl!

Fig no go in stroller!

Fig big girl!

[ tooting ]

Uh-oh! Monster meltdown!

- [ crying ]
- Fig, I know you're upset,

but I've got something
that will help.

in her stroller!

Never, never, never!

- [ horn honks ]
- Fig: Hi, school bus!

Hi, school bus!

Ohh. I wish Fig
loved her stroller

as much as she loves
that school bus.

Wait a monster-minute,
that's it!

We can pretend
that Fig's stroller
is a school bus.

Then maybe she'll
want to ride in it

and bring Hugo his lunch.

Oh, that's good.

- [ giggling ]
- Oh, Fig.

We know you don't want
to ride in your stroller,

but how would you like to ride
in a big girls' school bus?

[ gasps ]
School bus?

Fig love school bus!

Get ready, guys.

It's playtime.

Figgles! Esme! Roy!

What are you guys doing here?

You forgot your lunchbox,
so we brought it to you.

We helping.

You came all the way here
just to bring me my lunch?

I thank you.
[ stomach growls ]

[ laughing ]
And my tummy thanks you.

[ high voice ] Thank you!

You're welcome, 'Ugo.

Yum!

Here, Figgles.
You can have half
of my sandwich.

- Mmm!
- Driving a school bus
is hard work.

Don't you just love monsters?

Esme:
"The Inside Job."

[ Roy snoring ]

Hey Roy, can you help me
pack up the monster-case?

Roy? [ sing-songy] Roy?

- [ Roy muttering ]
- Time to wake up.

Ahh. [ laughs ]

[ snorts, snores ]

Rise and shine!

[ snoring ]

[ gasps ]

If you're sleeping,

who's gonna eat
these delicious meatballs?

[ sniffing ]

Huh?
Did someone say meatballs?

[ both laughing ]

[ monster-case playing ]

[ stops playing ]

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

Yes! Today we're
watching Snugs!

Yes! In the park!

- Ready to go?
- Yup!

- [ honking ]
- Roy: Whoo-hoo!

Come on!

[ both laughing ]

- Hi, Norm!
- Hi!

Heeey!

Whoo-hoo!

Oh, Snugsy!
Look who's here!

Esme! Roy!

Hi, Snugs.

Aaah!
Your hands are cold!

Really? Let me see.

Oooh! They are cold!

Let me try.

[ gasps ] Aah!

You're right!

Oh, dear!
We can't have that.

Here. These will
keep you warm

while I'm at the store.

If you start to get too cold,

I want your monster-sitters
to take you home to warm up. OK?

Don't worry, Mrs. Muzzywump.

We'll make sure Snugs
stays nice and toasty.

Oh, yeah, super toasty!

Like bread with butter. Mmm!

And cinnamon. Oh! And--

- [ laughing ] Roy!
- Too much?

I mean,
we'll keep Snugs warm.

Oh! [ laughs ]

All right, Snugs.

Ooh! I'll see you later.

- Bye, Mommy.
- Bye!

Have lots of fun
while I'm gone!

Oh, we will. Whoo-hoo!

Both:
[ gasp ] Whoo-hoo!

Look, Esme! I'm doing it!

- I'm doing it!
- You sure are!

[ laughing ] Whoo!

[ all laughing ]

- Whee!
- [ laughing ]

Whoa!

[ laughing ]

Whew!

Hmm. Do you have yellow?

Nope.

Go leaf.

Nice!

[ laughing ]

Huh?

- Aww.
- [ all laugh ]

This is so much fun!

I never want to go inside!

Yay!

Whee!

[ laughing ]

- [ wind whistling ]
- [ shivering ]

Uh-oh, Roy.

Look!
Snugs is shivering!

He must be getting cold.

Monster Fact #77:

"When Muzzywump monsters
get cold,

they get really big shivers."

[ shivering ]

And they turn blue.

But Snugs is always blue.

[ gasps ]
That's Monster Fact #78.

- [ Snugs shivering ]
- Aww.

- [ shivering ]
- Hey, Snugs!

It's getting pretty chilly
out here.

What do you say
we head on home
to warm up?

But I love playing outside.

Can we stay just
a little bit longer?

Pleeeease?

OK. But we'll have
to find a way

- to keep you warm.
- Leave that to me.

[ blows air, inhales ]

[ blowing air ]

Esme, can you...?

[ whistles ]

OK, Snugs! Time
to play dress-up,

and you're gonna dress up
like a really warm monster!

All you need is a scarf,

a sweater, a coat,

another scarf... and there!

Whoo!
What do you think, Snugs?

[ muffled speech ]

What?

[ muffled speech ]

Did you catch any of that?

He said...
[ muffled speech ]

I said: It's kind of hard
to talk with all this stuff on.

Hard to move, too.

But maybe I can still
go on the slide.

- Whooooa!
- I gotcha.

I know it's a little hard
to get around,

but if you're gonna be outside,
you have to stay nice and...

warm?

Whee!

- [ wind whistling ]
- [ Snugs shivering ]

Whoa. Snugs is really
shivering!

He's getting even colder!

OK, Snugs, we've gotta
get you home to warm up.

But I like playing outside.

Let's stay! Let's stay!

What do you think, Esme?

Is there another way
to keep Snugs warm?

Hmm. I think
I have an idea.

All right, monsters,

time to warm
your furry bodies up

with exercise!

One, and-two,
and-three, and-four.

I don't feel cold any-more.

[ panting ] One, and-two,
and-three, and-four,

I'll just lie down
on the floor.

[ laughing ] Roy!

Ooh, a squirrel!

[ panting ]

That's it, monsters!

Are you feeling it?

Ooh, yeah,
I'm feelin' it.

Really feelin' it.
How about you, Snugs?

Snugs?

- [ squirrel squeaks ]
- Nope. Go leaf.

[ shivering ]

Snugs, it's getting too cold
to play outside.

Let's head home
so you can warm up.

But it's not too cold to play.
Watch.

[ shivering ]
Whee. I'm having...

so much... fun.

Snugs looks colder than ever.
We gotta get him home!

What'll we do,
what'll we doooo?

Hmm. Maybe he'd come home
with us if we gave him a ride.

Oh, yeah!

We can give him
a ride in a taxi!

Let's see. I'll need a car,

some yellow paint,

and a few years
at taxi driver school.

'Cause I don't know
how to drive a taxi.

[ laughing ]
Come on, Roy.

I've got another idea.

Oh, Snugs!
Your ride is here!

[ gasps ] Is that a hayride?

It sure is! Hop in.

Whee!

OK, to get this hayride started,

- just say, "Hay-yay!"
- Hay-yay!

All:
Hay-yay!

- Bye!
- See ya later!

Whew! We made it.

Wasn't that fun, Snugs?

Uh-uh. I loved it!

Now lets go back
to the park.

Hay-yay!

That's not good.

Snugs, it's too cold
to play at the park.

We have to go inside
to warm up.

Inside?

But I don't wanna go inside.

I want to stay outside.

[ sniffling ]
I want to play on the slide!

And pick apples!

And play with
my squirrel friend!

[ crying ]
I don't wanna go inside!

[ sobbing ]

Uh-oh! Monster meltdown!

I know you're upset, Snugs,

but it's gonna be OK.

OK.

Ahh. Now this is more like it.

So warm, so toasty, so--

[ sighs ]

...sad?

Oh, Snugs.

He thinks he can only
have fun outside.

I wish we could show him
that he can have fun inside too.

- Oh! Oh!
- You have an idea?

No! I have an itch!

Oh! Oh!

Oh, it was a leaf.

You silly leaf.

You belong outside.

Hmm.

[ gasps ]
Wait a monster-minute!

That's it!

Maybe we can bring
the outside in!

Snugs, remember
all that fun stuff
you did outside today?

Uh-huh.
I played on the playground,

I played in the leaves,

and I played with a squirrel.

[ sighs ]

Well, how would you like
to bring those things

into your own living room?

Really?

With a squirrel
and everything?

[ Roy chittering ]

With a squirrel and everything!

You said it, Roy.

Bringing the outside in
was so much fun!

Snugs got to play,
and he stayed nice and warm.

Oh, yeah,
it was a blast!

[ gasps ] Ya know what else
could be fun?

Let's try bringing the inside...

out!

- [ wind whistling ]
- Whoa-oh-oh-oh!

I'll just keep the inside in.

I ruined the party.

Esme, we don't need a party
to have fun.

We could have a play party.

We can wear party hats
and play all our favorite games.
