"[Spooky music]" " Agent Louie, do you read me... over?" " Loud and clear, control." " Is mission "prank the delivery man" a go?" "Repeat... is it a go?" " Yes." "Are the walkie-talkies really necessary?" " Yes!" "Now, come on." "It's already zero-two-niner." " What's that mean?" " Don't know." "I just like saying niner." " All right, setting the final piece now." " So..." "The mean delivery man opens the door, pulling back the boot which kicks the ball that slides down the tube..." "you know what?" "Just watch." "Good things will happen." " Nice!" "Ha." " Here he comes!" "Right on schedule." "Niner-niner." "[Bells jingle]" " Uh-oh..." " It's mom!" "Louie, can't you stop it?" " Of course I can." "Oops." "[Whimpers] Ahh..." " Aah!" "Oh!" "Wha... aah!" "Whoo!" "What have you kids done?" "!" " Delivery!" " Niner?"

"How could you guys do that?" " It's simple physics, really." " Well, you guys are in big trouble." " It took three rinses to get the chocolate out of my hair." "Now because of you two," "I have to open the bakery an hour late." "As a professional businesswoman," "I have standards to keep up, you know?" "Oh, there's that spatula..." " What Michelle's trying to say... the pranks have gotten out of control." "Now sit there while we discuss punishments." " So..." "What do you got?" "Time out, grounding, double chores?" "Combo pack?" " If we're gonna fix this, we need to deal with the root of the problem." " Ohh..." "I am so glad you said that." "I mean, don't get me wrong, I love Louie, but clearly he hasn't been the best influence on my innocent little girl." " Innocent little girl?" "I think your towel's tied on too tight." "Frankie's the problem." "Ever since she's moved here, my boy's been neglecting his ghost schoolwork." " You're really not trying to say that my baby is to blame." " I'm not trying to say anything." "I said it!" " [Gasps]" "Well, maybe it would be best if the kids had a break from each other, give them a chance to meet other people, make new friends." " Fine." " Double fine!" " Hmph!" " Schooled." " All right, you two." "We have decided what you need is some time apart." " You can't do that!" "We're a team." " Yeah, Frankie's my buddy and I'm her role model." " It's not forever... just until you guys get your act together." "Now, let's go." " Come on, it'll be good for you." "You can go back to being my kind, helpful little girl." " When was I ever that?" " Oh..." "You are so silly." "If you weren't such a sweet kid, would you have bought me that wonderful shampoo that I just used?" "Fyi, loving the minty scent." " Hey, tay, whatcha say?" " I wasn't doing anything!" " Are you okay?" " Yes, I'm okay." "Why wouldn't be okay?" "I like your bow tie." "Well, gotta go... see ya!" " Why do I feel like she was hiding something from me?" " Miles, you shouldn't look inside." "You'd be invading Taylor's privacy." " With all due respect, I have to mildly disagree." " Wait... aren't you supposed to be a devil?" " For you, I'm as bad as it gets." "My bow tie's crooked, and I return library books late." " How do you live with yourself?" " I know, right?" "Total bad boy." "Anyhoo, if Taylor's hiding something, she might be in trouble." " You're right." "Let's take a look." ""Dear Taylor," ""we are writing to invite you to harken school" ""where we feel you would make a superb addition to our championship gymnastics program."" "Taylor's thinking of going to a boarding school?" "In Virginia?" " This is shocking." "I feel faint." " Why would she leave us?" " It must be their great gymnastics program..." "Guys, if we want Taylor to stay in new Orleans, we've gotta make her team better." " Absolutely!" " Couldn't have said it better myself!" " It's unanimous then." "Thanks, guys." "Now..." "Group hug!" "[Three knocks]" "[Three knocks]" "[Rhythmic knock]" "[Rhythmic knock]" " Oh, just open the door." " [Softly] What's the secret password?" " What do you think all the knocking was?" " I just thought we were laying down a nice beat." "How long do you think they're gonna keep us apart?" " No idea." "This is so unfair." "We're a team." "Frankie and Louie." "Fouie." " You mean Louie and Frankie." "Loukie." " Yeah, that's just as catchy." "I miss hanging out with you." "I wish your dad wasn't so strict." " What do ya mean?" "My dad's all good." "Your mom's the one who freaked out over a harmless prank." " Please!" "Ray's the one who went all nuts with the punishment." " If there's anybody who goes nuts, it's Michelle." "There." "I said it!" " Careful, you're talking about my mom!" " And you're talking about my dad!" "You know what?" "Maybe my dad was right." "Maybe you are a bad influence." " Well, maybe you're a bad ghost." " Could a bad ghost turn himself into a gigantic tarantula?" " I'm outta here." " Who needs you?" "Without me, you'll have no one to talk to but your collection of mannequin heads." "[Honks]" " Well, without me you'll have nothing to do but turn yourself into poultry, and fyi, you look ridiculous!" " Whoo!" "Ha ha!" "All right, Taylor!" " Nice going, tay." "Great routine." " Thanks." " Scores for Taylor hathaway... 9, 9, 9, and a perfect 10!" " I think our team may have a shot at winning." " I'm not so sure about that." " Little help here?" " She does know which side she's supposed to stand on, right?" " That's it." "Time to turn this into a championship team." " Next up, Emma Hawking on balance beam." "[Applause]" " Um..." "Guys?" "[Applause]" " She just did a perfect routine." " We're gonna win?" "We never win!" " I don't know how I did it." "It must be my new breakfast cereal... sugar frosted marshmallow bits!" "And my mom said it was no better than candy." " Who are you spying on?" " Frankie has a play date." "And this Chester..." "such a well-behaved boy." " Well, without certain distractions," "Louie's really improved his ghost tricks." "I may have a true scholar on my hands." " [Honk] Dad?" "When you get a sec..." " You must be so proud." " It took me four years to put together my rock collection." "These here are made from volcanic magma." "That reminds me... what did the boy volcano say to the girl volcano?" " What?" " "I lava you."" "Get it?" "Lava!" "Ha ha ha ha!" "[Frankie laughs loudly]" " Lava!" "Oh, Chester, you're so funny." " You know what's not funny?" "Roughhousing with someone's semi-precious stone collection." "If I show you my rubies," "I need to know..." "You'll be gentle." " 'Kay..." " Back in a nanosecond!" " Don't mind me." "Just passing through." " Sorry if my new bestie and I are laughing too loud." " You mean rock boy?" "That's just sad." " Sad?" "More like awesome." "In fact, we've come up with a nickname..." "Chester and Frankie:" "Chankie." " But the nickname was our thing." " Who's ready to inspect some rubies?" "!" " You think you can replace the l-train?" "Good luck!" "I don't have time for you anyway, not with all the fun I'm having." " Good point." "What's your new friend's name again?" "[Hisses] Oh..." "That's right." "You don't have one." " Oh, is that what you think?" "I'm one popular dude." "And you know what?" "Forget about our temporary break." "You and me are done!" "Adios, "chankie!"" "Totally on purpose!" "[Honk]" " Oh." "Hello." " Sorry." "Just want to get the paper." " It's a free country." "How's Louie?" " Studious as ever." "Frankie?" " Oh, couldn't be better." "I just love seeing that spring in her step." "Hey, there, bright eyes." "What exciting activity do you and Chester have planned for tomorrow?" " We're going to the park to look at gravel." " Funzies!" " It was between that or going shoe-shopping with his mom." " Isn't she thriving?" " Ho ho!" "Didn't know you'd be here." " State your business." "I'm memorizing the 12 different types of gravel." "Which I am loving!" " Hey, while you're here why don't you say hi to my new best friend?" "Frankie, meet twouie." " Pleased to make your acquaintance." " You gotta be kidding me." " Twouie's way more mature and smarter than Chester." "Tell her what we've been up to, twouie." " Well, we've had a jolly good time!" "We went bird-watching, played chess, then put on a fancy concert." "I play the French horn!" " At least Chester's a real friend, not something I made in a copy machine." " How rude!" "Louie, please tell me "fresh mouth"" "isn't going bird watching with us." " Nope." "Just us." " Huzzah!" "The morning loon awaits!" "Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah." " Where was I?" "Oh, yeah..." "Fine gravel, lag gravel, pea gravel..." " Ray, what have we done?" "Our kids have turned into zombies and weirdos." " Let's face it." "They're miserable without each other." " We've gotta get them back together." " And let's do it fast before Miles sees twouie's outfit." "He'll definitely want to get one." " I can't believe we won again!" "That's three times in a row!" " Yeah, thanks to me." " And, of course, me." " All of us had something to do with it, Emma." " Taylor, sweetie, if all of us were on the balance beam together, we'd be disqualified." "Uh..." "Doy!" " That's not what I meant..." " Speaking of me being awesome," "I have to talk to you guys about upping your scores." "I've been scoring 10s, and you've only been scoring 8s and 9s." " Which are pretty good scores, Emma." " Taylor, are 9s better than 10s?" "Are they?" "Seriously, I don't know." "Can someone tell me?" " 10s are better." " Better watch out, Taylor." "Next thing you know, she'll want to be captain." " Sophie's right." "I should be captain." " That's not what I..." " Taylor," "I challenge you to a one-on-one gymnastics duel, 5:00 at the gym." "Winner gets to be captain." " Emma, what happened?" "This doesn't sound like you." " 5:00." "Be there or be a circle." " What's wrong, tay?" "Aren't you glad your team's finally winning?" " Miles, I like winning, but now it's different." "Emma's changed." "I feel like I'm losing a friend." " But you've gained a medal." " Who cares about medals?" "I don't want to be on the team if it's not fun anymore." " [Laughs] Wa-wait... [sobs] But I thought this is what you wanted!" " Greetings, Miles!" " Louie, I've got a big problem." "I don't know what... ooh, that is a nice outfit." "What is that, Italian wool?" " It sure is!" " Kids, the reason why we called you together is..." "Oh, twouie..." "This is a family meeting, so..." "Actually, I don't know whether you belong here or not." " Let him stay." "He's kinda growing on me." " We think you kids learned your lesson." "So you are free to play with each other again." " Yay!" " Well, if Frankie's ready to apologize," "I'm willing to listen." " I have nothing to apologize for." " Here's a tension-breaker:" "The remarkable mating call of the blue-footed booby!" "[Ahem]" "Ooh-ah, ooh-ah!" "Ooh-ah, ooh-ahhhhh!" " What are we going to do?" " We need to remind them why they like each other." "I think I have a plan." "[Off-notes]" "¶" " we gotta make this happen now." "¶" " I hope you brought your a-game, Taylor." "I'm planning a dismount like you've never seen before... three flips in a row." "I call it..." ""The quadruple Emma."" " That does sound awesome, if not slightly incorrect." "Listen, Emma, you're a good friend, but lately it seems your gymnastics skills have given you a big head." " If that were true, why does my viking horn hat still fit?" "Don't have an answer for that, do ya?" "!" "Now, let's settle this." " Taylor!" " Miles." "What are you doing here?" " Don't worry, you're going to beat her and stay captain." " I don't know." "Emma's gotten pretty good." "I don't know how she does it." "Her flips are almost..." "Supernatural." "Miles..." " I'm sorry, what were we talking about?" " Miles, you totally possessed Emma!" " I didn't want you to move away." "I saw that letter in your backpack from that boarding school." " I get those recruiting letters all the time." "I'm not going anywhere." " Oh..." "Whoo!" "Thank goodness!" "But wait..." "I saw you hiding something in your backpack." "If it wasn't a letter, then what was it?" " This." "It's a present." " [Gasps]" "A light-up bow tie?" "What did I do to deserve this?" " It was for not snooping into my business lately." " Oh..." " Try to match this move, Taylor!" " Emma!" "She's going to try to do the supernatural flip..." "Without the supernatural!" " Gymnastics captain-hood, here I come!" " Emma!" "Are you all right?" "How many fingers?" " Seven." " Okay, she's fine." " If this doesn't get Frankie and Louie back together, nothing will." "Ooh!" "Here he comes." "Get Louie." " You call for a late pickup?" " Yes!" "I have it right here." "Say, uh, you've been delivering things here for months, and we've never really said hello." "I'm Michelle hathaway." " And I'm married." "Very subtle." " No..." "I'm not..." "I wasn't, um... [Ahem] Look..." "Why don't you sit down right here and enjoy some free muffins?" "My way of saying thank you for..." "A job..." "Done." " You wanted me to help close up?" " Mm-hmm." " Dad said you wanted to see me." " What's he doing here?" " What's she doing here?" " Well, I need to get a screwdriver to fix that shelf before someone jiggles it and sends all those messy pies crashing down on that unsuspecting delivery man." "I need you two to make sure nothing happens." "Bye!" " Hey, it's that mean delivery guy." " Sorry, I can't hear you." " I can't hear you either." " That's gonna keep me up at night." " Hey, lady, where's my muffin?" " A lotta pies above that guy." " Lotta pies." " You jiggle the shelf?" " You keep him in the target zone?" " What... the... hey!" " I'm so sorry!" "I don't know how that happened." "Move over here." " What is happening?" "I'm outta here!" " Target destroyed!" "It's good to be working with you again, agent Frankie." " You too." "Niner-niner." " You know, we really are good parents." " Horrible people, but good parents." "Another prank." "We need super glue and a 50-pound bag of gummy worms. to see you two scamps playing together again." " Michelle, you look a little different today." "New hairstyle?" " Yes!" "Thank you for noticing." "Ray's voice:" "I think you look great."
