1
00:00:23,021 --> 00:00:25,271
Hi. My name's Orion.
2
00:00:25,355 --> 00:00:29,146
I'm a kid, just like you,
so we have that in common.
3
00:00:29,230 --> 00:00:31,688
Anyhow, I saw you sitting there
by yourself
4
00:00:31,771 --> 00:00:34,313
and thought maybe you'd like some company.
5
00:00:37,396 --> 00:00:38,730
I know I would.
6
00:00:38,813 --> 00:00:41,521
So that's why I'm walking up to you
right now and...
7
00:00:41,605 --> 00:00:43,688
Walking right past you.
8
00:00:45,063 --> 00:00:46,355
Why, you ask?
9
00:00:47,355 --> 00:00:48,771
Because, Sally,
10
00:00:48,855 --> 00:00:50,230
I'm afraid.
11
00:00:50,813 --> 00:00:54,146
Afraid of what, you want to know?
So much, really.
12
00:00:56,605 --> 00:01:00,896
But in this case,
rejection, humiliation...
13
00:01:00,980 --> 00:01:04,605
that you might tell your friends,
and they would all laugh at me.
14
00:01:04,688 --> 00:01:07,146
And it's not just you
I'm afraid of, Sally.
15
00:01:07,230 --> 00:01:09,313
And not just girls in general.
16
00:01:09,396 --> 00:01:11,771
It's most things, to be candid.
17
00:01:13,813 --> 00:01:16,605
Oh, it's tuna. What do you have?
18
00:01:16,688 --> 00:01:18,563
It would be kinda nice to know.
19
00:01:25,105 --> 00:01:28,271
The school counselor told me
to document my fears in some form.
20
00:01:28,355 --> 00:01:30,188
That's why I keep a sketchbook.
21
00:01:30,271 --> 00:01:32,313
It's my way of trying to manage my issues.
22
00:01:32,396 --> 00:01:35,938
Take page 14, for example.
My fear of clogging the toilet...
23
00:01:36,021 --> 00:01:38,938
- ...and flooding the whole entire school.
24
00:01:41,771 --> 00:01:42,938
Oh, thank God.
25
00:01:43,021 --> 00:01:46,188
I'm also afraid of giving
the wrong answer in class.
26
00:01:46,271 --> 00:01:49,980
Who can tell me
which explorer first reached India by sea?
27
00:01:50,063 --> 00:01:51,938
- Me, me, me!
- A tricky situation.
28
00:01:52,021 --> 00:01:55,063
Mrs. Spinoza usually calls on kids
who don't raise their hands.
29
00:01:55,146 --> 00:01:58,563
But raising my hand so she won't
call on me is a dangerous strategy.
30
00:01:58,646 --> 00:02:02,355
Therefore I try to look invisible.
But at the same time, not too invisible.
31
00:02:02,438 --> 00:02:04,230
I know the answer is Vasco da Gama.
32
00:02:04,313 --> 00:02:06,980
It's the answer to a great many questions
in the fifth grade,
33
00:02:07,063 --> 00:02:10,271
but I'm afraid if called on,
I might say "Gasco da Vama",
34
00:02:10,355 --> 00:02:11,730
or "Dasco ga Vama."
35
00:02:11,813 --> 00:02:13,980
- Everyone would laugh.
36
00:02:15,855 --> 00:02:17,855
- Oh, Mrs. Spinoza, I know!
37
00:02:17,938 --> 00:02:19,313
Yes? Lisa?
38
00:02:19,396 --> 00:02:22,813
- Vasco da Gama.
- Very good, Lisa.
39
00:02:22,896 --> 00:02:25,355
I'm not a real big fan of Lisa.
40
00:02:25,438 --> 00:02:26,480
But to be fair,
41
00:02:26,563 --> 00:02:28,521
there are a lot of things
I'm not a big fan of.
42
00:02:28,605 --> 00:02:30,771
Murderous gutter clowns
are high on my list.
43
00:02:32,188 --> 00:02:33,938
Cell phone waves giving me cancer.
44
00:02:34,021 --> 00:02:34,896
Hi, Grandma.
45
00:02:34,980 --> 00:02:36,771
Mosquito bites getting infected.
46
00:02:36,855 --> 00:02:38,355
Falling off a skyscraper.
47
00:02:39,396 --> 00:02:41,438
- Saying "good morning."
-"Goob dorning!"
48
00:02:41,521 --> 00:02:43,605
Bees. Dogs. The ocean.
49
00:02:43,688 --> 00:02:45,855
I'm afraid of being responsible
for my team losing.
50
00:02:45,938 --> 00:02:46,980
Hey, Orion, catch!
51
00:02:53,896 --> 00:02:56,063
And of course,
I'm afraid of locker rooms.
52
00:02:56,146 --> 00:02:58,021
Because A, what sane person isn't?
53
00:02:59,771 --> 00:03:00,855
You okay, Gabe?
54
00:03:00,938 --> 00:03:02,730
- And B...
55
00:03:02,813 --> 00:03:04,855
- ...Richie Panici.
56
00:03:04,938 --> 00:03:09,730
Well, well, well, look who it is.
Cryin' Orion!
57
00:03:09,813 --> 00:03:11,438
Hey, Richie.
58
00:03:16,396 --> 00:03:18,563
Wear pants much?
59
00:03:18,646 --> 00:03:21,480
I'm afraid of being humiliated
by Richie Panici.
60
00:03:22,938 --> 00:03:24,896
- Afraid of being punched by him.
61
00:03:24,980 --> 00:03:27,605
Also, I'm afraid of...
Okay, what if I punch him back?
62
00:03:27,688 --> 00:03:30,313
And his nose goes into his brain,
and he dies.
63
00:03:30,396 --> 00:03:32,980
That can happen, the nose
and the brain thing. Look it up.
64
00:03:33,063 --> 00:03:34,355
- I'll go to juvie.
65
00:03:34,438 --> 00:03:36,271
Plus, I'll have to live
with the guilt of--
66
00:03:36,355 --> 00:03:41,105
Hey! I asked if you wear pants much.
Don't be rude.
67
00:03:41,188 --> 00:03:43,938
Yes, I do wear pants.
68
00:03:44,021 --> 00:03:45,271
Much?
69
00:03:45,355 --> 00:03:46,563
Uh...
70
00:03:46,646 --> 00:03:48,396
What's that pad you always got?
71
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:52,771
"I'm afraid of monsters,
bees, haircuts, dogs...
72
00:03:52,855 --> 00:03:57,605
the ocean, Richie Panici..."
Hey! I'm famous! Thanks!
73
00:03:57,688 --> 00:04:01,813
Wait. You drew me dead!
No one draws me dead!
74
00:04:01,896 --> 00:04:06,188
I'm hereby "consificating" this
on account of its rudeness to me,
75
00:04:06,271 --> 00:04:08,105
Richie Panici.
76
00:04:08,188 --> 00:04:11,438
If I weren't so scared,
I would tell you that that's my property.
77
00:04:11,521 --> 00:04:13,188
That I put my heart and soul into it,
78
00:04:13,271 --> 00:04:15,355
and that you had no right
to grab it from me.
79
00:04:15,438 --> 00:04:18,313
I would also tell you
that the word is "confiscating."
80
00:04:20,021 --> 00:04:21,771
Thank you, Richie.
81
00:04:22,521 --> 00:04:23,480
- Huh?
- Huh?
82
00:04:23,563 --> 00:04:25,771
Whatever.
83
00:04:28,313 --> 00:04:30,313
I don't know why I thanked him.
84
00:04:36,313 --> 00:04:37,938
Have a great weekend, everyone.
85
00:04:38,021 --> 00:04:41,271
Oh, and don't forget to leave
your permission slips on my desk.
86
00:04:41,355 --> 00:04:45,188
The bus for the planetarium leaves
on Monday at nine a.m. sharp.
87
00:04:45,980 --> 00:04:50,021
Oh, no. I was hoping Mrs. Spinoza
would've forgotten about the field trip.
88
00:04:51,896 --> 00:04:54,396
Ah, this is gonna be so fun!
89
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,480
Fun? It sounds fun to you, Lisa?
90
00:04:56,563 --> 00:05:00,021
Are you insane?
This field trip sounds terrifying.
91
00:05:00,105 --> 00:05:02,646
Getting packed like sardines
into a rusty school bus
92
00:05:02,730 --> 00:05:04,980
with 30 other kids
speeding down the highway?
93
00:05:05,063 --> 00:05:07,230
Sounds like a traffic accident
waiting to happen.
94
00:05:07,313 --> 00:05:08,146
I should know.
95
00:05:08,230 --> 00:05:10,480
- I've studied the actuarial charts.
96
00:05:10,563 --> 00:05:13,438
And all those giant models of
our solar system hanging from the ceiling?
97
00:05:13,521 --> 00:05:15,396
I mean, how long
have those things been up there?
98
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:16,938
A hundred years?
99
00:05:19,813 --> 00:05:23,313
Plus, what if I end up having
to sit next to Sally at the planetarium,
100
00:05:23,396 --> 00:05:24,396
and our hands touch?
101
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,146
- I'll have a panic attack.
102
00:05:26,230 --> 00:05:28,188
It'll become a running joke
around the school,
103
00:05:28,271 --> 00:05:31,313
and I'll never know the joy
of a meaningful human connection!
104
00:05:37,438 --> 00:05:40,605
Orion, do you have your permission slip?
105
00:05:40,688 --> 00:05:42,521
I was afraid
she was gonna say that.
106
00:05:43,146 --> 00:05:46,105
Um, my parents won't let me go
to the planetarium.
107
00:05:46,188 --> 00:05:49,563
Yeah, they don't believe in, uh, space.
108
00:05:50,980 --> 00:05:53,771
Yeah, um, it's a whole thing.
109
00:05:56,521 --> 00:05:57,980
She's over here.
110
00:05:59,105 --> 00:06:00,188
- Hey, Orion.
111
00:06:01,438 --> 00:06:04,646
I'm super excited for the field trip.
112
00:06:04,730 --> 00:06:06,105
Uh...
113
00:06:06,188 --> 00:06:10,313
So, um, I was wondering
if maybe you wanted to sit together?
114
00:06:10,396 --> 00:06:11,771
While we're there?
115
00:06:11,855 --> 00:06:15,146
If I weren't so scared,
I'd tell you, "Of course I do, Sally.
116
00:06:15,230 --> 00:06:16,605
Of course I wanna hang out with you.
117
00:06:16,688 --> 00:06:19,813
To be frank, I've never wanted
anything more, but to do that,
118
00:06:19,896 --> 00:06:23,396
I'd have to be able to not constantly
obsess over every negative thing
119
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,896
- that could possibly happen..."
120
00:06:24,980 --> 00:06:27,480
Oh, that's my mom. I gotta go.
121
00:06:29,021 --> 00:06:31,480
See you at the planetarium, Orion!
122
00:06:33,563 --> 00:06:36,021
No, you won't.
123
00:06:53,230 --> 00:06:55,313
Page 17 in my sketch book.
124
00:06:55,396 --> 00:06:57,771
I'm afraid my parents will move away
while I'm at school.
125
00:07:00,063 --> 00:07:01,896
I don't know why I fear this.
126
00:07:01,980 --> 00:07:04,271
The counselor at school
doesn't have any theories.
127
00:07:06,313 --> 00:07:09,146
My parents certainly seem
nice enough, he says.
128
00:07:09,230 --> 00:07:11,271
And I think he's correct.
129
00:07:12,438 --> 00:07:13,855
Hi, honey!
130
00:07:15,021 --> 00:07:17,188
- Hi, Mom.
- How was school?
131
00:07:17,271 --> 00:07:20,563
- Fine.
- I made you oatmeal cookies.
132
00:07:24,355 --> 00:07:25,230
Oh, uh...
133
00:07:25,813 --> 00:07:27,313
how'd that get there?
134
00:07:27,396 --> 00:07:30,146
Your father found it
stuffed under the couch.
135
00:07:30,896 --> 00:07:33,855
I think you mean
in between the couch cushions?
136
00:07:33,938 --> 00:07:37,188
- Hm. Wanna talk about it?
- Not really.
137
00:07:37,271 --> 00:07:39,313
You should go. It'll be fun.
138
00:07:39,396 --> 00:07:41,521
I'm not so sure about that.
139
00:07:41,605 --> 00:07:43,438
Orion, bud, I get it.
140
00:07:43,521 --> 00:07:45,146
These kind of things can be scary.
141
00:07:45,230 --> 00:07:47,730
But that's the thing.
It's okay to be nervous.
142
00:07:47,813 --> 00:07:49,938
More than okay, in fact. It's normal.
143
00:07:50,021 --> 00:07:54,855
The trick is not to let your fear
get in the way of living your life.
144
00:07:54,938 --> 00:07:55,771
It's true.
145
00:07:55,855 --> 00:07:59,063
- Otherwise, I never would've proposed.
146
00:07:59,146 --> 00:08:02,855
Sometimes, you just have
to feel the fear and do it anyway.
147
00:08:02,938 --> 00:08:05,813
I love my parents,
and I appreciate
148
00:08:05,896 --> 00:08:07,688
what they're trying to do, but...
149
00:08:09,271 --> 00:08:12,355
that is, without question,
the worst advice I've ever heard.
150
00:08:16,813 --> 00:08:19,563
It looks like this is
the end of the line for us, guys.
151
00:08:19,646 --> 00:08:22,188
Oh, no. This is terrible.
152
00:08:22,271 --> 00:08:24,271
This cartoon
is completely unrealistic.
153
00:08:24,355 --> 00:08:27,313
Recyclable items
do not have eyes or personalities.
154
00:08:27,396 --> 00:08:31,938
They do not go on adventures.
I don't appreciate being condescended to.
155
00:08:32,021 --> 00:08:34,313
Real life is way more
complicated than that.
156
00:08:34,396 --> 00:08:37,646
- And reincarnation is wishful thinking.
- Wow!
157
00:08:38,688 --> 00:08:40,230
For plastic containers
and people.
158
00:08:40,313 --> 00:08:43,313
In real life, when you're dead,
you're dead.
159
00:08:45,188 --> 00:08:48,063
The realization that there's no way
around it terrifies me.
160
00:08:49,063 --> 00:08:53,730
I try to imagine what death is like.
I've concluded it's like nothing.
161
00:08:53,813 --> 00:08:58,813
I try to imagine nothing.
This is black and silent, not nothing.
162
00:08:58,896 --> 00:09:00,980
Blackness and silence is something.
163
00:09:01,771 --> 00:09:04,563
Nothing is perhaps
the one unimaginable thing.
164
00:09:06,563 --> 00:09:07,438
Orion!
165
00:09:08,021 --> 00:09:09,105
Bedtime.
166
00:09:14,271 --> 00:09:16,230
- All tucked in?
- Yes.
167
00:09:16,730 --> 00:09:18,605
- Teeth brushed?
- Uh-huh.
168
00:09:20,896 --> 00:09:23,230
All right, buddy. Sleep well.
169
00:09:23,313 --> 00:09:24,605
Goodnight, Orion.
170
00:09:29,188 --> 00:09:31,021
Uh... Wait!
171
00:09:32,688 --> 00:09:35,438
Um, how about a quick bedtime story?
172
00:09:35,521 --> 00:09:36,896
You know,
173
00:09:36,980 --> 00:09:38,271
for old times' sake.
174
00:09:39,521 --> 00:09:41,771
Orion, we've talked about this.
175
00:09:41,855 --> 00:09:44,938
Here's a good one. Nice and weighty.
Perfect for bedtime.
176
00:09:45,521 --> 00:09:49,438
Um, I'm not sure we have the time
for David Foster Wallace tonight.
177
00:09:50,605 --> 00:09:51,896
Okay.
178
00:09:55,105 --> 00:09:57,813
You know,
we'll always be here for you, Orion.
179
00:09:57,896 --> 00:10:02,021
But please, stay in bed tonight?
Mom and I need our sleep.
180
00:10:02,563 --> 00:10:04,563
Okay, I will. But...
181
00:10:06,521 --> 00:10:08,813
could you at least
leave the door open tonight?
182
00:10:08,896 --> 00:10:10,771
All right, bud. Say when.
183
00:10:10,855 --> 00:10:13,938
Okay. A little more open?
184
00:10:14,813 --> 00:10:15,730
Here okay?
185
00:10:15,813 --> 00:10:17,771
Actually, a little more.
186
00:10:17,855 --> 00:10:19,855
- Here?
- Good! Yes!
187
00:10:20,605 --> 00:10:22,855
Actually, just a tad bit more?
188
00:10:23,938 --> 00:10:25,771
- Thanks.
- Goodnight, sweetie.
189
00:10:25,855 --> 00:10:29,271
- Goodnight, son.
- Night, Mom. Night, Dad.
190
00:10:39,938 --> 00:10:42,563
Okay. This isn't so bad.
191
00:10:48,355 --> 00:10:49,563
I take it back!
192
00:10:49,646 --> 00:10:52,771
This is bad! Very, very bad!
It's literally the worst!
193
00:10:54,563 --> 00:10:57,105
Because of all the things I'm afraid of,
194
00:10:57,188 --> 00:11:00,230
I'm most afraid of the dark.
195
00:11:11,063 --> 00:11:12,105
Oh, no.
196
00:11:17,646 --> 00:11:19,855
It's an old house. Houses settle.
197
00:11:20,646 --> 00:11:22,396
Nothing to worry about.
198
00:11:24,563 --> 00:11:26,355
My parents have work in the morning.
They need their rest.
199
00:11:26,438 --> 00:11:28,896
Can't I just put myself
in their shoes for once?
200
00:11:34,146 --> 00:11:35,938
No! No, no, no, no! No!
201
00:11:39,146 --> 00:11:40,938
Curse you, darkness!
202
00:11:41,021 --> 00:11:46,438
What cruel aberrations hide
within your inky cloak of... darkness?
203
00:11:46,521 --> 00:11:48,521
Why can't you just leave me alone?
204
00:11:49,605 --> 00:11:52,480
Alone... Alone...
205
00:12:15,396 --> 00:12:17,980
Okay! That's it! I've had it with you!
206
00:12:21,271 --> 00:12:23,771
Every single night
with the constant screaming
207
00:12:23,855 --> 00:12:25,980
and the carrying on and whatnot!
208
00:12:26,063 --> 00:12:29,646
Seven nights a week, 365 nights a year.
209
00:12:29,730 --> 00:12:31,063
It's nonstop!
210
00:12:32,271 --> 00:12:34,521
- What are you?
- Isn't that obvious?
211
00:12:34,605 --> 00:12:39,563
The room's dark. It's dark out.
Hello? I'm Dark. Ta-da!
212
00:12:41,438 --> 00:12:43,063
There it is again.
213
00:12:43,146 --> 00:12:46,021
You know, there are a lot of people
that are scared of me.
214
00:12:46,105 --> 00:12:49,230
But you,
you're on a whole different level.
215
00:12:51,521 --> 00:12:53,605
Of all the kids
who are terrified of the dark,
216
00:12:53,688 --> 00:12:55,396
you are by far the loudest,
217
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,646
the most obnoxious,
and frankly, the most hurtful.
218
00:12:58,730 --> 00:13:00,146
And that's no small feat.
219
00:13:00,230 --> 00:13:02,146
You've got
some pretty healthy competition.
220
00:13:02,230 --> 00:13:03,396
Check it out.
221
00:13:04,105 --> 00:13:06,230
Millions of people are afraid of the dark.
222
00:13:06,313 --> 00:13:08,855
- You're keeping a list?
- Yes, I'm keeping a list.
223
00:13:08,938 --> 00:13:11,021
Do you know how many kids
are afraid of me?
224
00:13:11,105 --> 00:13:12,730
It's giving me a complex.
225
00:13:12,813 --> 00:13:14,730
This is just volume one, by the way.
226
00:13:14,813 --> 00:13:16,438
Dark doesn't exist!
Dark doesn't exist!
227
00:13:16,521 --> 00:13:19,855
Then why are you having
a conversation with me?
228
00:13:23,146 --> 00:13:26,021
You know what I mean.
Dark is simply the absence of light.
229
00:13:26,105 --> 00:13:28,271
Not a stupid cartoon character.
230
00:13:28,938 --> 00:13:31,313
Here we go.
231
00:13:31,396 --> 00:13:35,938
Look, you humans have always had
weird ways of conceptualizing me.
232
00:13:36,021 --> 00:13:39,688
I'm not listening to you. You know why?
Because you're not real!
233
00:13:39,771 --> 00:13:42,271
Oh, I'm very real.
234
00:13:42,355 --> 00:13:44,813
Here, check it out.
I even made a little movie about myself.
235
00:13:44,896 --> 00:13:47,688
You know, to offer
a different perspective on darkness.
236
00:13:47,771 --> 00:13:49,688
It's kind of a passion project.
237
00:13:50,355 --> 00:13:54,938
Dark has existed
for over five hundred million years,
238
00:13:55,021 --> 00:13:59,480
since early life on Earth
developed light-sensitive proteins.
239
00:14:03,146 --> 00:14:04,896
So?
240
00:14:06,188 --> 00:14:07,230
You didn't like it.
241
00:14:07,313 --> 00:14:09,480
I'm just trying to offer up
some food for thought.
242
00:14:09,563 --> 00:14:12,230
Everyone is against me.
It didn't get into Sundance.
243
00:14:12,313 --> 00:14:14,771
And it's so much better
than half of the movies there.
244
00:14:14,855 --> 00:14:16,730
It's such a boys' club.
245
00:14:16,813 --> 00:14:19,146
I mean, it's good.
It's a little short, though,
246
00:14:19,230 --> 00:14:22,146
for someone who's been around
for over five hundred million years.
247
00:14:22,230 --> 00:14:24,688
But, you know, concise is good.
248
00:14:24,771 --> 00:14:27,980
Listen, I didn't ask
to be a supernatural entity
249
00:14:28,063 --> 00:14:30,188
that evokes dread and despair.
250
00:14:30,271 --> 00:14:31,521
I'm just a regular guy
251
00:14:31,605 --> 00:14:33,563
trying to do my job.
252
00:14:33,646 --> 00:14:35,313
But people always pick on me.
253
00:14:36,230 --> 00:14:38,771
Truth is, almost everyone is scared of me.
254
00:14:38,855 --> 00:14:40,480
Or hates me.
255
00:14:40,563 --> 00:14:42,646
Or thinks I'm evil.
256
00:14:42,730 --> 00:14:46,313
Some people think I'm nothing.
Hurts a guy.
257
00:14:48,271 --> 00:14:51,563
Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to--
258
00:14:51,646 --> 00:14:53,188
No, it's okay.
259
00:14:53,771 --> 00:14:56,396
You know, and I-I like people.
That's the thing.
260
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,271
It's just that so much
of how you see yourself
261
00:14:58,355 --> 00:15:00,896
is through the eyes of others,
you know?
262
00:15:01,980 --> 00:15:04,230
I just wish people would give me a chance.
263
00:15:07,188 --> 00:15:11,188
I know how you feel.
A lot of kids at school pick on me, too.
264
00:15:11,271 --> 00:15:14,021
Richie Panici, Davis Jensen,
Howard Helstrom,
265
00:15:14,105 --> 00:15:16,021
Isaac Pill, Rebecca Warren.
266
00:15:16,105 --> 00:15:19,980
She moved, but she still sends me
threatening letters on my birthday.
267
00:15:20,063 --> 00:15:21,688
Which is sort of nice.
268
00:15:21,771 --> 00:15:24,563
Huh. Yeah. Thoughtful.
269
00:15:32,063 --> 00:15:34,063
I just wanna not be afraid anymore.
270
00:15:35,605 --> 00:15:37,730
Yeah, that'd be nice.
271
00:15:37,813 --> 00:15:40,855
Then maybe I wouldn't have
to hear you screaming every night.
272
00:15:41,646 --> 00:15:42,813
Hmm...
273
00:15:43,855 --> 00:15:46,938
Tell you what.
I think I've got a way to fix this.
274
00:15:49,355 --> 00:15:51,813
You come watch me do my job for one night,
275
00:15:51,896 --> 00:15:54,563
and you'll finally see
that I'm nothing to be afraid of.
276
00:15:54,646 --> 00:15:56,771
You'll learn to appreciate
the beauty of the night,
277
00:15:56,855 --> 00:15:59,105
instead of being
so terrified all the time.
278
00:15:59,188 --> 00:16:00,688
So what do you say?
279
00:16:01,438 --> 00:16:05,646
- Are you in, or are you in?
- I'm...
280
00:16:05,730 --> 00:16:07,313
definitely not in.
281
00:16:09,646 --> 00:16:12,563
Yeah, of course you're not. Well, fine.
282
00:16:12,646 --> 00:16:15,980
If you wanna spend
the rest of your life paralyzed by fear,
283
00:16:16,063 --> 00:16:18,813
be my guest, but that's on you.
284
00:16:33,188 --> 00:16:35,521
- Wear pants much?
- Hey, Orion, catch!
285
00:16:36,688 --> 00:16:38,563
Cryin' Orion! Cryin' Orion!
286
00:16:38,646 --> 00:16:40,230
- Hey, Orion.
287
00:16:40,313 --> 00:16:42,813
I'm super excited for the field trip...
288
00:16:43,938 --> 00:16:45,730
Okay, I'll go!
289
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:47,646
Mr. Dark?
290
00:16:51,313 --> 00:16:53,313
- I knew you'd come around!
291
00:16:53,396 --> 00:16:56,021
Let's shake on it, you know?
Make it official.
292
00:17:00,896 --> 00:17:03,438
See? Nothing to it.
293
00:17:05,896 --> 00:17:07,146
Wait, wait, wait.
294
00:17:07,980 --> 00:17:09,480
I know what you're doing, Dad.
295
00:17:09,563 --> 00:17:11,313
What do you mean?
296
00:17:11,396 --> 00:17:12,771
By telling me this story.
297
00:17:12,855 --> 00:17:15,313
- I'm not doing anything.
- Yes, you are.
298
00:17:15,396 --> 00:17:18,396
You're telling me a story about
how you overcame your fear of the dark
299
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,105
to try and help me overcome
my fear of the dark.
300
00:17:21,188 --> 00:17:22,855
Huh.
301
00:17:22,938 --> 00:17:24,855
- Well, I--
- But it's not gonna work.
302
00:17:24,938 --> 00:17:27,188
Fear of the dark
is an evolutionary adaptation
303
00:17:27,271 --> 00:17:30,438
that people developed to protect
themselves from nocturnal predators.
304
00:17:31,188 --> 00:17:33,396
Wow. You've done your research.
305
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,355
I wrote a poem about it.
306
00:17:36,730 --> 00:17:39,313
"Hypatia the poet." I love that!
307
00:17:39,396 --> 00:17:40,980
It's one poem, Dad.
308
00:17:41,063 --> 00:17:42,605
I think that counts.
309
00:17:42,688 --> 00:17:44,063
It's not very good.
310
00:17:44,146 --> 00:17:45,980
I'm sure it is. Can I hear it?
311
00:17:46,063 --> 00:17:47,355
No!
312
00:17:47,438 --> 00:17:50,355
All I'm saying
is that fear of the dark is natural.
313
00:17:50,438 --> 00:17:53,605
It's hardwired in us,
so there's nothing we can do about it.
314
00:17:54,188 --> 00:17:56,855
Right. Well, in that case,
315
00:17:56,938 --> 00:17:59,146
- I guess I'll just say goodnight and--
- Wait!
316
00:17:59,230 --> 00:18:02,813
I'm not saying it's not a good story,
and I don't wanna hear it.
317
00:18:02,896 --> 00:18:05,563
I'm just letting you know
that I know what you're doing,
318
00:18:05,646 --> 00:18:07,396
and it's not going to work.
319
00:18:08,021 --> 00:18:09,980
Okay, I got it.
320
00:18:10,688 --> 00:18:14,063
So, you and Dark
were flying off into the night...
321
00:18:17,146 --> 00:18:20,855
So, Dark and I
were flying off into the night...
322
00:18:25,313 --> 00:18:27,396
Pretty great, right?
323
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,980
If by "pretty" and "great", you mean
"terrifying" and "awful", then yes!
324
00:18:31,063 --> 00:18:34,188
I'm gonna get you to overcome
your fears if it kills me!
325
00:18:34,271 --> 00:18:38,563
And I'm immortal, by the way,
so I've got all the time in the world.
326
00:18:44,563 --> 00:18:47,688
I thought we'd start
with a little tour of what I like to call,
327
00:18:47,771 --> 00:18:49,646
"the virtues of night."
328
00:18:50,355 --> 00:18:51,188
See?
329
00:18:51,271 --> 00:18:55,146
Without me, you wouldn't be able to see
all the wrinkles on the actors' faces.
330
00:18:55,230 --> 00:18:57,271
So far, you're a terrible salesman.
331
00:18:57,355 --> 00:18:58,313

Not allergic to stars, though!

00:19:39,355 --> 00:19:42,105
You are familiar with the concept
of "fun", are you not?
344
00:19:42,188 --> 00:19:45,771
"Fun" is just a word people made up
to make danger sound more appealing!
345
00:19:45,855 --> 00:19:49,563
Ah! Look at that!
You can't have fireworks without the dark!
346
00:19:49,646 --> 00:19:53,021
Technically, you can set them off
at any time of day.
347
00:19:53,105 --> 00:19:55,771
Yeah, I guess.
It'd be pretty lame, though.
348
00:19:55,855 --> 00:19:57,396
Beauty is in the contrast.
349
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,271
Hey, are you closing your eyes?
350
00:19:59,355 --> 00:20:00,563
I'm protecting my retinas!
351
00:20:00,646 --> 00:20:03,146
- Oh, come on! Open them!
- No!
352
00:20:03,230 --> 00:20:05,146
You're missing out on all the fun.
353
00:20:05,230 --> 00:20:06,230
Absolutely not!
354
00:20:06,313 --> 00:20:08,230
- Open your eyes!
- No way!
355
00:20:08,313 --> 00:20:10,188
But that defeats the whole purpose!
356
00:20:10,271 --> 00:20:13,271
- Not my purpose!
- It's for your own good.
357
00:20:13,355 --> 00:20:15,396
You see how much better that is?
358
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,896
- Kid? Kid? Kid!
359
00:20:20,313 --> 00:20:21,521
Gotcha!
360
00:20:22,271 --> 00:20:24,980
- Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
- It was an accident.
361
00:20:25,063 --> 00:20:28,355
You dropped me! I could have died!
I wanna go home!
362
00:20:28,438 --> 00:20:30,938
Don't worry. I'm going to bring you home.
363
00:20:31,021 --> 00:20:33,813
- Eventually.
- Eventually, when?
364
00:20:35,021 --> 00:20:37,063
Hey, look! You can see the Big Dipper.
365
00:20:37,146 --> 00:20:39,480
It's really quite beautiful
this time of year.
366
00:20:39,563 --> 00:20:43,230
When are you bringing me home?
367
00:20:43,313 --> 00:20:45,396
Great question. Very probing.
368
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:46,813
In 24 hours.
369
00:20:46,896 --> 00:20:50,146
- So, anyway, back to the stars...
- 24 hours?
370
00:20:50,230 --> 00:20:53,480
Yeah, well, that's how
the whole night and day thing works.
371
00:20:53,563 --> 00:20:56,146
It's a 24-hour cycle.
I can't go backwards.
372
00:20:56,230 --> 00:20:58,855
- What? Why not?
- Look, I better get moving.
373
00:20:58,938 --> 00:21:01,980
But, hey, if you wanna walk home
in the middle of nowhere,
374
00:21:02,063 --> 00:21:05,396
- in the dead of night, all by yourself--
- Wait, wait, wait!
375
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,396
I can't walk home by myself!
It's like 100 miles away!
376
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,105
All right then.
377
00:21:10,188 --> 00:21:13,021
Looks like you've gotta come
with me after all.
378
00:21:13,105 --> 00:21:18,271
Buckle up and hold on to your hat
because your mind is about to be blown.
379
00:21:18,355 --> 00:21:20,021
Are you covering your eyes again?
380
00:21:20,105 --> 00:21:21,771
- I plead the Fifth.
- Really?
381
00:21:21,855 --> 00:21:25,688
Do you have any idea how many people
would love to be you right now?
382
00:21:25,771 --> 00:21:27,188
- Zero?
- A lot!
383
00:21:27,271 --> 00:21:28,980
- The answer is a lot!
384
00:21:29,063 --> 00:21:31,355
Because I'm the coolest Entity
of all time!
385
00:21:31,438 --> 00:21:34,188
Because that's what you are
when there's no other Entity
386
00:21:34,271 --> 00:21:37,146
that has ever existed
that people like better than you.
387
00:21:41,813 --> 00:21:44,896
Good morning, everybody.
388
00:21:50,355 --> 00:21:52,521
Right on time and so, so fine.
389
00:22:00,771 --> 00:22:02,896
It's going to be 75 and sunny.
390
00:22:02,980 --> 00:22:06,146
Low humidity and a cool breeze
coming out of the west.
391
00:22:07,896 --> 00:22:10,938
Gonna be fun, fun, fun
in the sun, sun, sun.
392
00:22:11,021 --> 00:22:13,313
But, let's be honest, when is it not?
393
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:24,980
God, I love this job.
394
00:22:40,105 --> 00:22:44,230
Okay, so we got off
to a little bit of a shaky start
395
00:22:44,313 --> 00:22:46,896
with the whole "dropping you
and almost killing you" thing.
396
00:22:46,980 --> 00:22:49,896
But we can't dwell on that because
we've got a lot of work to do, kid.
397
00:22:49,980 --> 00:22:52,730
And in a way,
my job is the most fundamental.
398
00:22:52,813 --> 00:22:55,771
I show up every night, and I bring it.
399
00:22:55,855 --> 00:22:57,980
- Bring what?
- Dark.
400
00:22:58,063 --> 00:23:00,230
And it's probably
the most important job, too,
401
00:23:00,313 --> 00:23:01,563
because without darkness,
402
00:23:01,646 --> 00:23:03,480
the others don't get to do their bits.
403
00:23:03,563 --> 00:23:05,105
What do you mean "the others"?
404
00:23:05,688 --> 00:23:07,480
The other Night Entities.
405
00:23:07,563 --> 00:23:09,188
Wait, there's more?
406
00:23:10,938 --> 00:23:13,938
Raise. In or out, Insomnia?
407
00:23:14,021 --> 00:23:15,730
I'm thinking. I'm always thinking.
You know that.
408
00:23:15,813 --> 00:23:20,480
Can't seem to stop my brain.
Think, think, think!
409
00:23:21,396 --> 00:23:24,980
Ah, crap. I'm out.
What about you, Quiet?
410
00:23:25,063 --> 00:23:26,438
- Call.
- Call.
411
00:23:26,521 --> 00:23:28,688
- You're up, Sleep.
412
00:23:28,771 --> 00:23:29,855
What?
413
00:23:31,855 --> 00:23:33,521
Royal flush?
414
00:23:33,605 --> 00:23:35,146
Unbelievable.
415
00:23:35,230 --> 00:23:36,521
Gosh darn it!
416
00:23:37,146 --> 00:23:39,688
Huh? What happened? What did I miss?
417
00:23:39,771 --> 00:23:41,313
You won.
418
00:23:41,396 --> 00:23:45,146
Oh, wonderful.
Pleasure doing business with you.
419
00:23:47,563 --> 00:23:48,646
Great.
420
00:23:48,730 --> 00:23:50,813
Wait, wait. Why are we going in here?
421
00:23:50,896 --> 00:23:52,521
Well, kid, it's break time!
422
00:23:52,605 --> 00:23:55,396
The other Night Entities and I
take one every new time zone.
423
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,813
We're fun, you're gonna love us.
424
00:23:57,896 --> 00:23:59,771
- Heya, gang, what's up!
- Heya, Dark!
425
00:23:59,855 --> 00:24:01,521
Welcome back! Huh?
426
00:24:01,605 --> 00:24:03,480
Great work tonight, guys.
427
00:24:03,563 --> 00:24:06,438
- You brought the kid?
- Dark brought the kid!
428
00:24:06,521 --> 00:24:07,980
So irresponsible!
429
00:24:08,063 --> 00:24:09,105
Unbelievable!
430
00:24:09,188 --> 00:24:10,230
Are you nuts?
431
00:24:10,313 --> 00:24:12,563
Well, this is the opposite of encouraging.
432
00:24:12,646 --> 00:24:13,938
I've got this.
433
00:24:14,021 --> 00:24:17,771
Orion, allow me to introduce you
to the other Night Entities.
434
00:24:17,855 --> 00:24:22,521
There's Sleep, Quiet,
Insomnia, Unexplained Noises,
435
00:24:22,605 --> 00:24:25,688
and, of course, the most creative
and poetic of us all,
436
00:24:25,771 --> 00:24:28,271
- Sweet Dreams.
- Hm.
437
00:24:28,355 --> 00:24:30,105
You brought the Screamer?
438
00:24:30,188 --> 00:24:32,105
The kid who's afraid of everything!
439
00:24:32,188 --> 00:24:35,605
Is this your latest attempt at trying to
convince the world that you're not so bad?
440
00:24:35,688 --> 00:24:37,646
- Uh...
- Helping random children
441
00:24:37,730 --> 00:24:39,355
to boost your fragile self-esteem
442
00:24:39,438 --> 00:24:41,438
is not in our job description!
443
00:24:41,521 --> 00:24:43,563
Whoa. That is insightfully harsh.
444
00:24:43,646 --> 00:24:46,188
Do you have any idea
how many things could go wrong?
445
00:24:46,271 --> 00:24:48,230
I mean, what if he freaks out
and slows you down,
446
00:24:48,313 --> 00:24:51,313
and you know who finally catches up,
and you get obliterated,
447
00:24:51,396 --> 00:24:53,605
and the concept
of darkness ceases to exist,
448
00:24:53,688 --> 00:24:58,063
and the fabric of the universe
is permanently and irreparably altered?
449
00:24:58,146 --> 00:25:01,021
- That's a thing that can happen?
- Ah, seems unlikely.
450
00:25:01,105 --> 00:25:04,105
All right. Enough of this nonsense.
451
00:25:04,188 --> 00:25:08,813
I'm sorry, honey,
but Dark never should've brought you here.
452
00:25:08,896 --> 00:25:12,480
You're just gonna have
to find your own way home. Okay?
453
00:25:12,563 --> 00:25:15,188
Now, come on, everyone.
Break time's over!
454
00:25:15,271 --> 00:25:17,521
Some of us have work to do.
455
00:25:23,438 --> 00:25:24,355
Wait!
456
00:25:24,438 --> 00:25:26,313
One night could change everything!
457
00:25:27,563 --> 00:25:29,396
I got 24 hours with this kid.
458
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,021
We help him overcome his fear of the dark
and all his nightly screaming,
459
00:25:33,105 --> 00:25:35,855
and all that interference with your jobs
just goes away.
460
00:25:38,355 --> 00:25:40,521
All right, fine.
461
00:25:40,605 --> 00:25:43,188
Just make sure he stays out of my hair.
462
00:25:43,771 --> 00:25:47,480
Absolutely. Not a problem.
Won't be in your hair at all.
463
00:26:13,813 --> 00:26:16,396
- Did you mean that?
- What?
464
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,813
You really think you can fix everything
I'm afraid of in one night?
465
00:26:21,146 --> 00:26:23,480
One night can change everything.
466
00:26:23,563 --> 00:26:26,646
- Hey, what's that light?
- Light? What light? I don't see any light.
467
00:26:26,730 --> 00:26:29,105
The one behind you that you're trying
to keep me from seeing.
468
00:26:29,188 --> 00:26:30,730
Me? Keep you from seeing?
469
00:26:30,813 --> 00:26:32,271
That's cuckoo banana talk.
470
00:26:41,271 --> 00:26:43,563
Not so close.
I don't think they like me.
471
00:26:43,646 --> 00:26:46,396
What? That's ridiculous.
You're totally likeable.
472
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,605
They called me night enemy number one
and said I ruin their jobs.
473
00:26:49,688 --> 00:26:52,771
Yeah, admittedly, they didn't make
the best first impression.
474
00:26:52,855 --> 00:26:55,021
But just wait
until you see them in action.
475
00:26:55,105 --> 00:26:58,855
It's totally inspiring.
And not scary at all.
476
00:26:58,938 --> 00:27:02,188
Ah, yes, sleep is responsible
for making sure
477
00:27:02,271 --> 00:27:04,605
all the creatures of the world
go to sleep at night.
478
00:27:04,688 --> 00:27:06,896
She's down there
making everyone go to sleep?
479
00:27:06,980 --> 00:27:10,480
Oh, yeah!
You gotta watch, it's really fascinating.
480
00:27:15,938 --> 00:27:18,105
- What?
- Oh, don't worry, she's a professional,
481
00:27:18,188 --> 00:27:19,438
and it's a magic pillow.
482
00:27:27,771 --> 00:27:29,188
...and compare them to
483
00:27:29,271 --> 00:27:31,146
our air fried quinoa.
484
00:27:31,230 --> 00:27:32,605
I love quinoa. Yes!
485
00:27:32,688 --> 00:27:33,563
Oh, my God.
486
00:27:33,646 --> 00:27:35,813
Please tell me that's magic chloroform.
487
00:27:35,896 --> 00:27:38,855
Uh, yeah... [clears throat] Magic.
488
00:27:38,938 --> 00:27:43,146
...restless creatures walk more
than 3,000 miles in the seasons ahead.
489
00:27:47,105 --> 00:27:50,021
Oh, you're a cutie pie, aren't you?
490
00:27:53,105 --> 00:27:54,980
- Stop! No!
491
00:27:55,063 --> 00:27:56,063
Stop!
492
00:27:57,396 --> 00:27:58,771
Dark!
493
00:27:58,855 --> 00:28:01,230
Do you mind? I can't have
this blabbermouth freaking out
494
00:28:01,313 --> 00:28:02,896
while I'm trying to get work done!
495
00:28:02,980 --> 00:28:04,688
None of what you're doing is okay!
496
00:28:04,771 --> 00:28:07,855
Smothering someone with a pillow?
Chloroform? A hammer?
497
00:28:07,938 --> 00:28:10,396
Not to mention,
questions of hygiene with that kiss.
498
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,396
Listen, I've been doing
this job for thousands of years.
499
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,855
I think I know what I'm doing, kid.
500
00:28:15,938 --> 00:28:17,646
And these lips are clean!
501
00:28:20,521 --> 00:28:21,896
Clean.
502
00:28:21,980 --> 00:28:25,063
Uh, thanks for letting us see
how the sausage gets made!
503
00:28:26,230 --> 00:28:28,771
I don't know
if I'll ever be able to sleep again.
504
00:28:28,855 --> 00:28:30,105
Uh, right.
505
00:28:30,188 --> 00:28:34,813
Well, if you're staying up all night
then I've got just the Entity for you.
506
00:28:37,063 --> 00:28:40,355
Insomnia is the best impressionist
I've ever met.
507
00:28:40,438 --> 00:28:43,146
He makes himself sound like
the person he's keeping up,
508
00:28:43,230 --> 00:28:46,355
and then whispers worrisome things
in their ears.
509
00:28:46,438 --> 00:28:48,271
Why is that even a job?
510
00:28:48,355 --> 00:28:51,396
Oh, you're just great
at making friends, aren't you?
511
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,396
- Not really.
- Yeah, that tracks.
512
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:55,521
Now, watch
513
00:28:55,605 --> 00:28:56,896
and learn.
514
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,605
Classic Insomnia.
515
00:29:02,730 --> 00:29:05,938
Why did I say that to Michelle?
She's gonna think I'm an idiot.
516
00:29:08,688 --> 00:29:10,521
Well, I'm pretty sure I'm getting fired.
517
00:29:10,605 --> 00:29:11,646
Huh?
518
00:29:13,855 --> 00:29:16,396
I'm never going to meet my deadline!
519
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,521
She's sleeping pretty soundly.
520
00:29:18,605 --> 00:29:21,271
I'm gonna have to pull out
the big guns for this one.
521
00:29:23,938 --> 00:29:26,230
Who can tell me the capital of Delaware?
522
00:29:26,313 --> 00:29:28,313
The capital of Delaware is D.
523
00:29:29,688 --> 00:29:34,146
- Who can tell me the capital of Delaware?
- The capital of Delaware is D.
524
00:29:34,230 --> 00:29:36,480
All those sleepless nights
were because of him?
525
00:29:36,563 --> 00:29:37,438
What a jerk--
526
00:29:37,521 --> 00:29:40,146
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You think I'm the one doing that to you?
527
00:29:40,230 --> 00:29:44,855
Nuh-uh, pally. I'm just a megaphone
for the thoughts people already got.
528
00:29:44,938 --> 00:29:47,896
Don't follow me around
with this kid anymore, Dark. Okay?
529
00:29:47,980 --> 00:29:49,938
He's very judgy.
530
00:29:51,438 --> 00:29:53,980
I'm not judgy... Am I?
531
00:29:54,896 --> 00:29:57,271
And we're walking.
532
00:30:00,646 --> 00:30:05,813
Of course, none of us could do our jobs
without a little help from Quiet.
533
00:30:36,813 --> 00:30:38,855
Ah! It's too quiet!
534
00:30:38,938 --> 00:30:41,980
- Quiet... Quiet... Quiet...
- Enough with that dog!
535
00:30:46,771 --> 00:30:49,646
We told you that this kid
would ruin everything, and he is!
536
00:30:49,730 --> 00:30:51,480
- Uh-huh.
- I'm not some kinda glorified babysitter.
537
00:30:51,563 --> 00:30:53,855
I need absolute concentration
to do my job,
538
00:30:53,938 --> 00:30:56,355
and I can't have this kid getting
in the way and screwing everything up!
539
00:30:56,438 --> 00:30:58,355
Now, get him out of here,
so I can get back to business...
540
00:30:58,438 --> 00:30:59,896
- Mm-hm.
- ...and focus on doing my job!
541
00:30:59,980 --> 00:31:00,896
Okay, got it.
542
00:31:01,855 --> 00:31:02,855
What'd she say?
543
00:31:02,938 --> 00:31:04,730
Was it about me?
544
00:31:05,438 --> 00:31:07,730
I'm gonna be honest.
545
00:31:08,521 --> 00:31:11,355
I never have any idea what she's saying.
But she did look pretty angry.
546
00:31:12,730 --> 00:31:14,021
Oh! Unexplained Noises.
547
00:31:14,105 --> 00:31:15,563
- Come on, this way.
548
00:31:17,730 --> 00:31:19,188
Hey, hey, what's up?
549
00:31:19,271 --> 00:31:23,813
I'm thinking this moment
calls for a crunching sound,
550
00:31:23,896 --> 00:31:26,980
with the tiniest hint of scraping.
551
00:31:28,646 --> 00:31:31,771
What was that?
Mommy, Daddy! I'm hearing noises!
552
00:31:31,855 --> 00:31:35,855
Ah, yes. I'm really making an impact.
553
00:31:35,938 --> 00:31:37,188
This is so messed up!
554
00:31:37,271 --> 00:31:40,021
- Hey! It's okay, kid! It's not real--
- Can you not...
555
00:31:41,188 --> 00:31:43,813
You're upsetting
the delicate balance of nature.
556
00:31:43,896 --> 00:31:45,271
You may not understand it,
557
00:31:45,355 --> 00:31:47,396
but we're doing very important jobs here!
558
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:48,980
I mean, in the kid's defense,
559
00:31:49,063 --> 00:31:53,438
a lot of your job does involve
creeping around and scaring children.
560
00:31:53,521 --> 00:31:56,730
I don't have to explain myself
to either of you.
561
00:31:56,813 --> 00:31:57,688
The fact is,
562
00:31:57,771 --> 00:31:59,813
his very presence
threatens to destroy
563
00:31:59,896 --> 00:32:02,688
the fabric of the universe
as we know it!
564
00:32:03,896 --> 00:32:08,105
Eh, don't let her get to you.
Her honk is a lot worse than her bite.
565
00:32:08,188 --> 00:32:10,855
And, hey, I've saved the best for last.
566
00:32:10,938 --> 00:32:13,646
So get ready, and hold on tight!
567
00:32:17,146 --> 00:32:19,313
Ah, there she is.
568
00:32:19,396 --> 00:32:20,980
You mean, all those colors?
569
00:32:21,063 --> 00:32:23,438
Yep. That's Dreams doing her thing.
570
00:32:23,521 --> 00:32:26,855
If seeing her work can't make you
appreciate the beauty of nighttime,
571
00:32:26,938 --> 00:32:29,896
- then nothing can.
- What do you mean see her work?
572
00:32:44,230 --> 00:32:47,938
Hey! Shh! Keep it down.
She's working her magic.
573
00:32:48,021 --> 00:32:53,188
All right, what's churning
in your subconscious tonight, Irene?
574
00:32:53,271 --> 00:32:57,605
Mm-hm. Okay. A lot of anxiety about work.
575
00:32:57,688 --> 00:32:59,688
Big presentation tomorrow.
576
00:32:59,771 --> 00:33:02,980
Hmm. Not sure you're ready
for this one, Irene.
577
00:33:03,063 --> 00:33:05,563
- Really need to impress your boss. Got it.
578
00:33:05,646 --> 00:33:09,230
Oh, and your daughter found a rescue cat
that she wants you to adopt.
579
00:33:09,313 --> 00:33:11,646
- Mommy, can we keep him?
580
00:33:11,730 --> 00:33:14,188
Good material tonight.
581
00:33:14,271 --> 00:33:16,896
Now, let's work it all out.
582
00:33:18,563 --> 00:33:20,813
You're confidently
giving your presentation.
583
00:33:20,896 --> 00:33:24,271
If we just re-use the coil
from our winding mechanism,
584
00:33:24,355 --> 00:33:27,813
we can reduce
our manufacturing costs by 30%.
585
00:33:29,646 --> 00:33:32,021
Everyone's loving it.
586
00:33:35,896 --> 00:33:39,063
Irene! Irene!
587
00:33:44,063 --> 00:33:46,688
I think you've earned this, Irene.
588
00:33:48,313 --> 00:33:51,271
World's most competent employee?
589
00:33:51,355 --> 00:33:52,480
Mommy!
590
00:33:54,313 --> 00:33:56,438
You're the best mommy ever!
591
00:33:57,021 --> 00:33:59,188
That was one hell
of a presentation, Irene.
592
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,688
I definitely think
you're getting that promotion.
593
00:34:02,771 --> 00:34:04,980
Oh, Mommy. Can we please keep him?
594
00:34:06,021 --> 00:34:07,730
Yes, of course we can!
595
00:34:07,813 --> 00:34:08,688
Whoo!
596
00:34:08,771 --> 00:34:10,313
We love you, Irene!
597
00:34:10,396 --> 00:34:14,105
Amazing, she's amazing.
You're amazed, right?
598
00:34:14,813 --> 00:34:16,563
Yeah. She's pretty great.
599
00:34:16,646 --> 00:34:17,646
I told you.
600
00:34:17,730 --> 00:34:21,646
You know, this reminds me of a dream I had
where I was giving a class presentation.
601
00:34:21,730 --> 00:34:23,605
But instead of cheering,
everyone was booing me.
602
00:34:23,688 --> 00:34:27,646
And the weirdest part was, my classroom
was actually a dentist's office.
603
00:34:29,521 --> 00:34:31,688
- Uh...
- Wha... Huh?
604
00:34:31,771 --> 00:34:34,563
What the... I didn't conjure that.
605
00:34:34,646 --> 00:34:37,646
- That's a coincidence, right?
- Definitely. It has to be.
606
00:34:37,730 --> 00:34:40,063
Right. Because otherwise,
if I said something random,
607
00:34:40,146 --> 00:34:42,146
like, I don't know, "evil cucumber"...
608
00:34:42,230 --> 00:34:43,355
- Wha...?
609
00:34:43,938 --> 00:34:47,188
Hey there, Irene.
Time for your yearly check-up!
610
00:34:50,438 --> 00:34:52,521
- Uh...
611
00:34:52,605 --> 00:34:54,813
What the heck is going on?
612
00:34:54,896 --> 00:34:56,813
- Dark?
613
00:34:56,896 --> 00:34:58,146
No! Off-limits!
614
00:34:58,230 --> 00:35:00,646
You promised to keep him out of my hair!
615
00:35:00,730 --> 00:35:02,355
Look, I need to inspire him,
616
00:35:02,438 --> 00:35:04,271
and your work's
the most inspirational stuff
617
00:35:04,355 --> 00:35:07,188
- in the whole night time.
- Sorry about the cucumber.
618
00:35:07,271 --> 00:35:09,105
- Usually.
619
00:35:10,438 --> 00:35:13,646
Stop! Don't say one more word.
620
00:35:13,730 --> 00:35:16,688
Creating a dream is a very delicate art.
621
00:35:16,771 --> 00:35:18,271
That means anything you say,
622
00:35:18,355 --> 00:35:22,063
or even think, could influence the dream.
623
00:35:22,146 --> 00:35:25,021
- Got it?
- Anything I think?
624
00:35:26,438 --> 00:35:28,188
You thought of something scary,
didn't you?
625
00:35:28,271 --> 00:35:30,605
What? What did you think of now?
626
00:35:30,688 --> 00:35:32,230
Just a kid from my school.
627
00:35:33,896 --> 00:35:35,730
- Uh...
628
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:37,688
Who?
629
00:35:39,855 --> 00:35:41,688
Richie Panici.
630
00:35:43,271 --> 00:35:44,646
Run!
631
00:35:54,188 --> 00:35:56,730
You've been "consificated".
632
00:35:56,813 --> 00:35:59,855
- The word is "confiscated"!
633
00:35:59,938 --> 00:36:02,230
Cryin' Orion!
634
00:36:02,313 --> 00:36:06,146
Cryin' Orion! Cryin' Orion!
635
00:36:10,646 --> 00:36:13,813
Ever had a swirly before, Orion?
636
00:36:15,271 --> 00:36:17,980
I mean, he can't like get hurt
or anything, can he?
637
00:36:18,063 --> 00:36:20,771
No, it's impossible
to get hurt in a dream.
638
00:36:20,855 --> 00:36:23,605
- Oh, well, that's a relief.
- Unless, of course, he dies.
639
00:36:23,688 --> 00:36:25,938
- Then he dies in real life.
- Wait, what?
640
00:36:26,021 --> 00:36:27,813
Kid, you need to get out of here,
641
00:36:27,896 --> 00:36:29,771
or it's going to end very, very badly!
642
00:36:29,855 --> 00:36:31,521
I'm very aware of that!
643
00:36:31,605 --> 00:36:33,146
Uh... Huh?
644
00:36:34,438 --> 00:36:37,980
Come on, Orion!
Think of something to get us out of here!
645
00:36:38,063 --> 00:36:39,813
Come on! Think, think, think!
646
00:36:39,896 --> 00:36:41,855
Wait! Page 14 of my sketchbook.
647
00:36:41,938 --> 00:36:44,521
Clogging the toilet
and flooding the entire school.
648
00:36:46,230 --> 00:36:47,105
Huh?
649
00:37:06,146 --> 00:37:07,438
No!
650
00:37:10,730 --> 00:37:11,771
Kid!
651
00:37:18,188 --> 00:37:19,771
Hang on, Orion!
652
00:37:30,646 --> 00:37:33,105
What the heck was that?
653
00:37:33,188 --> 00:37:36,980
Kid, you're either extremely disturbed
or extremely creative.
654
00:37:37,063 --> 00:37:39,188
You're extremely lucky.
655
00:37:40,105 --> 00:37:42,230
That could've been a disaster.
656
00:37:48,146 --> 00:37:50,521
But it wasn't a complete disaster.
You know why?
657
00:37:50,605 --> 00:37:55,021
Because you looked your fears in the eye
and showed them what's what!
658
00:37:56,021 --> 00:37:57,605
Okay, let's try that again.
659
00:37:57,688 --> 00:38:01,021
You know what you do,
you just put your hand like this and we...
660
00:38:01,105 --> 00:38:04,813
Is it me, or am I more excited
about this than you are?
661
00:38:05,396 --> 00:38:07,896
I didn't overcome anything.
662
00:38:07,980 --> 00:38:10,896
Kid, I was there.
I saw it with my own two eyes.
663
00:38:10,980 --> 00:38:14,230
What you saw was me
being terrified and trying not to die.
664
00:38:14,313 --> 00:38:15,563
Now that you mention it,
665
00:38:15,646 --> 00:38:18,730
it did kind of have
an air of mortal desperation.
666
00:38:18,813 --> 00:38:21,063
But that doesn't make it
any less impressive!
667
00:38:21,146 --> 00:38:23,146
Dark, you're not listening.
668
00:38:23,230 --> 00:38:26,313
I didn't overcome my fears.
I'm still just as scared as ever.
669
00:38:26,396 --> 00:38:29,771
I know for a fact you're wrong,
and I can prove it.
670
00:38:29,855 --> 00:38:33,021
- I sincerely doubt that.
- Oh, yeah, Mr. Smarty Pants?
671
00:38:33,105 --> 00:38:35,438
Try this one on for size.
672
00:38:35,521 --> 00:38:38,230
You're not still afraid of me.
673
00:38:40,980 --> 00:38:42,688
Are you?
674
00:38:43,271 --> 00:38:46,771
I'm not scared of you.
675
00:38:46,855 --> 00:38:48,105
See?
676
00:38:48,188 --> 00:38:50,021
That's what I'm talking about.
677
00:38:56,396 --> 00:38:59,980
You know, my daughter's gonna love
that we're becoming friends.
678
00:39:00,063 --> 00:39:02,063
I knew you'd start warming up to me.
679
00:39:02,146 --> 00:39:04,480
Hold on, aren't you
too young to have a daughter?
680
00:39:04,563 --> 00:39:05,938
My future daughter.
681
00:39:06,021 --> 00:39:08,271
You're wacko, kid.
682
00:39:08,355 --> 00:39:09,230
Wait.
683
00:39:09,313 --> 00:39:13,063
So, are you saying that you could see
into the future when you were a kid?
684
00:39:13,146 --> 00:39:16,563
I guess. I don't know.
I'm just kind of riffing here.
685
00:39:16,646 --> 00:39:19,813
- Is that a bad idea?
- No. I don't know.
686
00:39:19,896 --> 00:39:21,230
The story is great.
687
00:39:21,313 --> 00:39:23,521
I like that you made
Light a character, too.
688
00:39:23,605 --> 00:39:26,480
Is he coming back,
or was that just like a guest appearance?
689
00:39:26,563 --> 00:39:30,480
Uh, possibly.
Like I said, I'm just riffing.
690
00:39:30,563 --> 00:39:33,480
I don't know how you keep making
all this stuff up.
691
00:39:33,563 --> 00:39:35,938
Well, you could definitely
make up a story like this.
692
00:39:36,021 --> 00:39:39,480
No, I couldn't.
It's just... Is it too much stuff?
693
00:39:39,563 --> 00:39:42,938
Like you're already traveling around
the world with magical Night Entities,
694
00:39:43,021 --> 00:39:45,313
and now you can predict the future, too?
695
00:39:45,396 --> 00:39:47,355
Gilding the lily?
696
00:39:47,438 --> 00:39:48,980
I don't know what that means.
697
00:39:49,063 --> 00:39:52,188
- It means what you said.
- Oh. Then, yeah.
698
00:39:52,271 --> 00:39:54,480
Hm. That's a terrific point.
699
00:39:54,563 --> 00:39:57,563
I'm going to remove
the "predicting the future" element.
700
00:39:57,646 --> 00:40:00,271
No more predictions from me
as young Orion.
701
00:40:00,355 --> 00:40:03,980
You sure?
I mean, it's kind of cool and funny, so...
702
00:40:04,063 --> 00:40:05,313
Nope! It's gone.
703
00:40:05,396 --> 00:40:06,230
Okay.
704
00:40:06,313 --> 00:40:08,271
Hm. I'm lost. Where were we?
705
00:40:08,355 --> 00:40:10,396
You were flying through the night
with Dark again.
706
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,938
Right. So Dark and I were
flying through the night again,
707
00:40:14,021 --> 00:40:16,480
only this time, it was different.

Which tape here...

- What did I tell you, kid?
731
00:41:28,146 --> 00:41:29,771
What if life is a cosmic accident...
732
00:41:29,855 --> 00:41:32,063
- What! No, no, no.
- ...and my existence has no meaning?
733
00:41:32,146 --> 00:41:34,938
- Wait, wait, wait, wait. No, no, no!

That's it.
735
00:41:37,605 --> 00:41:41,938

Oh, sweetie, what's wrong?

I got scared.
755
00:43:23,730 --> 00:43:26,313
I hate the dark so much.
756
00:43:41,646 --> 00:43:42,896
Come on, everyone.
757
00:43:42,980 --> 00:43:45,688
I hear the tea is exceptional here.
758
00:44:10,021 --> 00:44:13,146
Hey, Dark. Thanks by the way.
759
00:44:13,230 --> 00:44:14,771
For what?
760
00:44:14,855 --> 00:44:16,855
You know, all of this.
761
00:44:16,938 --> 00:44:20,438
Showing me that there's more to night
than just the darkness.
762
00:44:21,271 --> 00:44:23,813
Ah, don't mention it.
763
00:44:27,313 --> 00:44:28,396
That kid back there?
764
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,313
Don't listen to him.
765
00:44:30,396 --> 00:44:32,188
He doesn't know what he's talking about.
766
00:44:33,105 --> 00:44:35,480
- Maybe he does.
- He doesn't.
767
00:44:35,563 --> 00:44:37,480
I was the same way, remember?
768
00:44:38,313 --> 00:44:40,188
He's just afraid.
769
00:44:40,688 --> 00:44:44,480
Yeah.
I know what it's like to be afraid, too.
770
00:44:45,188 --> 00:44:48,563
You? What could you possibly be afraid of?
771
00:44:48,646 --> 00:44:51,480
I guess I'm afraid
that everyone's right about me.
772
00:44:51,563 --> 00:44:56,980
That I'm not a good guy,
and I'm just as scary as everyone says.
773
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:02,855
Hey, Dark? Remember when you told me
you're actually a really great guy?
774
00:45:02,938 --> 00:45:04,730
And I didn't believe you?
775
00:45:04,813 --> 00:45:06,355
Yeah.
776
00:45:06,438 --> 00:45:08,313
I'm starting to believe you.
777
00:45:09,438 --> 00:45:11,605
Aw, thanks.
778
00:45:11,688 --> 00:45:14,896
You know, you really have come a long way.
779
00:45:17,230 --> 00:45:19,646
Uh, I don't know about that.
780
00:45:20,771 --> 00:45:21,855
Hm.
781
00:45:21,938 --> 00:45:24,063
That's it. Let's get back to work.
782
00:45:24,146 --> 00:45:27,855
- Time to go.
- Okay. Time to get sleepy.
783
00:45:27,938 --> 00:45:31,646
Welp, come on.
That's our cue. Break's over.
784
00:45:42,230 --> 00:45:44,271
Orion, you dropped this.
785
00:45:45,605 --> 00:45:48,605
Oh, uh, thanks, Quiet.
786
00:45:48,688 --> 00:45:50,896
Eh... don't mention it.
787
00:45:53,105 --> 00:45:56,313
All right, kid, you ready? Hop on. Huh?
788
00:45:58,605 --> 00:46:00,980
You gotta be kidding me.
789
00:46:01,063 --> 00:46:05,105
- Who is he?
- That is Light. He's Dark's nemesis.
790
00:46:05,188 --> 00:46:06,063
Huh.
791
00:46:06,146 --> 00:46:09,188
I like him, for some reason.
He makes me feel safe.
792
00:46:09,271 --> 00:46:11,438
Like I'm wrapped in a warm blanket.
793
00:46:14,396 --> 00:46:16,771
You know,
if you're into that kind of thing.
794
00:46:16,855 --> 00:46:20,188
"Ooh, look at me. I'm so bright!"
795
00:46:20,271 --> 00:46:21,896
I've got tricks too, you know.
796
00:46:21,980 --> 00:46:25,271
But unlike some of us, I like to leave
a little to the imagination,
797
00:46:25,355 --> 00:46:27,480
instead of rubbing it in everyone's face.
798
00:46:27,563 --> 00:46:28,730
Come on, Dark.
799
00:46:28,813 --> 00:46:31,063
Do we really have to
go through this every time?
800
00:46:31,146 --> 00:46:33,355
Go through what?
I don't know what you're talking about.
801
00:46:33,438 --> 00:46:37,355
Uh, your attitude,
your lateness, your insecurity.
802
00:46:37,438 --> 00:46:38,771
How you doing, kid?
803
00:46:38,855 --> 00:46:40,313
Um, hi!
804
00:46:40,396 --> 00:46:42,688
It's always the same routine
with you, man.
805
00:46:42,771 --> 00:46:44,521
I show up, you feel inadequate,
806
00:46:44,605 --> 00:46:47,188
then you start to project
your insecurities onto me.
807
00:46:47,271 --> 00:46:49,646
Every day, I bring brightness
and hope to the world,
808
00:46:49,730 --> 00:46:52,105
and you bring the exact opposite.
809
00:46:52,188 --> 00:46:53,938
Eh... That's not... I'm...
810
00:46:54,021 --> 00:46:56,271
I do more than that.
811
00:46:56,355 --> 00:46:58,396
Wait, really? Like what?
812
00:46:59,271 --> 00:47:02,521
Like, a lot of stuff.
I would love to tell you all about it,
813
00:47:02,605 --> 00:47:04,521
but I don't really have
the time right now.
814
00:47:04,605 --> 00:47:06,771
Finally, something we can both agree on.
815
00:47:06,855 --> 00:47:10,063
Welp, I'm bringing daylight through here
in about three seconds,
816
00:47:10,146 --> 00:47:14,188
so if you want to continue to exist,
I'd, uh, you know...
817
00:47:14,271 --> 00:47:18,230
Oh, whatever.
We were leaving anyway. Jerk!
818
00:47:18,313 --> 00:47:21,021
I wouldn't call him a jerk.
He seems okay.
819
00:47:21,105 --> 00:47:23,480
He's not so great. Trust me.
820
00:47:24,855 --> 00:47:25,730
Hey, Dad?
821
00:47:25,813 --> 00:47:27,146
What, you ready for bed?
822
00:47:27,230 --> 00:47:28,813
Actually, no.
823
00:47:28,896 --> 00:47:31,980
I was wondering if we could go for
a little walk while you finish the story.
824
00:47:32,063 --> 00:47:33,063
Oh, really?
825
00:47:33,146 --> 00:47:36,355
So, like, we could be in the night,
like Orion and Dark.
826
00:47:36,438 --> 00:47:38,813
Um... Yeah, sure.
827
00:47:38,896 --> 00:47:41,021
I guess it's not a school night.
828
00:47:41,105 --> 00:47:43,021
So, yeah, let's go.
829
00:47:51,313 --> 00:47:53,521
Um, come on. We can cut through the park.
830
00:47:54,438 --> 00:47:55,521
Okay.
831
00:48:10,271 --> 00:48:11,313
You know what?
832
00:48:11,396 --> 00:48:14,896
- I think I like the other way better.
- Agreed.
833
00:48:25,771 --> 00:48:27,396
Can I have my hand for a minute?
834
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:30,063
- Oh, of course. Sorry.
- No, it's okay.
835
00:48:30,146 --> 00:48:33,063
I just thought of a couple new lines
and didn't want to lose them.
836
00:48:33,146 --> 00:48:34,438
Oh, good ones?
837
00:48:34,521 --> 00:48:38,730
Well, you know, just about how weird it is
that you can't see any stars.
838
00:48:39,355 --> 00:48:42,355
Yeah. I couldn't agree more.
839
00:48:43,896 --> 00:48:45,688
You don't have to pretend, you know?
840
00:48:46,688 --> 00:48:48,646
That you wanted to come this way, too.
841
00:48:48,730 --> 00:48:49,855
I'm not pretending.
842
00:48:49,938 --> 00:48:53,230
The street lights were out in the park.
It was scary for me, too.
843
00:48:53,313 --> 00:48:55,605
But I thought you got over that.
844
00:48:55,688 --> 00:48:57,480
That's what you said
in the story, at least.
845
00:48:57,563 --> 00:49:00,480
Well, it's a complicated story.
846
00:49:01,063 --> 00:49:03,563
Then couldn't you let it be complicated?
847
00:49:03,646 --> 00:49:05,896
Parents love simple stories like that
848
00:49:05,980 --> 00:49:07,855
because whatever problem
the character has,
849
00:49:07,938 --> 00:49:11,230
it all gets fixed, and then they don't
have to worry about it anymore.
850
00:49:11,313 --> 00:49:13,355
Orion meets Dark. Dark's not so bad.
851
00:49:13,438 --> 00:49:16,563
Orion isn't afraid of him anymore,
then there's a dance party.
852
00:49:16,646 --> 00:49:19,313
You think I should add
a dance party?
853
00:49:19,396 --> 00:49:23,855
I think if you're still scared,
you should let Orion still be scared.
854
00:49:23,938 --> 00:49:26,980
The only stories
that really help are the true ones.
855
00:49:27,605 --> 00:49:29,980
That is a really great point.
856
00:49:30,063 --> 00:49:31,021
You think so?
857
00:49:31,105 --> 00:49:34,605
I do.
And we should definitely use that idea.
858
00:50:03,813 --> 00:50:04,896
What's wrong?
859
00:50:06,438 --> 00:50:07,646
Yeah, did you die?
860
00:50:07,730 --> 00:50:09,230
- Insomnia!
- What?
861
00:50:09,313 --> 00:50:12,105
Jumping to worst case scenarios
is my actual job.
862
00:50:12,188 --> 00:50:13,271
No. I'm good.
863
00:50:13,355 --> 00:50:16,396
- Yeah. He's over that now, right?
- Totally.
864
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:17,730
Phew.
865
00:50:17,813 --> 00:50:20,605
Good. All right now, let's get to work.
866
00:50:20,688 --> 00:50:22,605
Race you inside.
867
00:50:27,105 --> 00:50:28,938
Come on.
868
00:50:29,021 --> 00:50:32,271
Uh, you all go ahead.
I'm more mortal than you are.
869
00:50:32,355 --> 00:50:34,230
And, I mean,
there's not even a night light.
870
00:50:34,313 --> 00:50:36,063
Trip hazard. No thank you.
871
00:50:36,146 --> 00:50:37,813
What are you so scared of?
872
00:50:37,896 --> 00:50:40,980
Nothing. I just...
I really like the daytime.
873
00:50:41,063 --> 00:50:44,355
Like, the noises.
I mean, have you heard day noises?
874
00:50:44,438 --> 00:50:47,771
- Birds, children playing, brunch?
- It sounds amazing.
875
00:50:47,855 --> 00:50:50,688
It is, and you are definitely missing out.
Like, in the daytime,
876
00:50:50,771 --> 00:50:53,271
there's this sense of connection
between the sounds and colors.
877
00:50:53,355 --> 00:50:56,230
Everything is lit up in the daytime.
It's almost psychedelic.
878
00:50:56,313 --> 00:50:58,396
Reds, greens, yellows, violet.
879
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:00,896
We have colors at night.
880
00:51:03,730 --> 00:51:06,230
I mean, you can see them better
if there's a fire.
881
00:51:11,980 --> 00:51:12,980
Hm?
882
00:51:14,063 --> 00:51:15,813
Yeah, that's light!
883
00:51:15,896 --> 00:51:18,438
- Oh, wow! Really?
- Incredible.
884
00:51:18,521 --> 00:51:23,521
- This makes me feel so safe and warm.
- I can see why this makes you less afraid.
885
00:51:23,605 --> 00:51:25,146
I'm not saying I need it.
886
00:51:25,230 --> 00:51:27,938
I'm just saying there's no way
to imagine how beautiful it is,
887
00:51:28,021 --> 00:51:30,105
if you haven't experienced it.
888
00:51:30,188 --> 00:51:31,271
Huh?
889
00:51:31,355 --> 00:51:34,813
So you're saying the problem is Dark?
890
00:51:34,896 --> 00:51:37,063
Well, in a way, yeah!
891
00:51:37,146 --> 00:51:40,438
And I love him,
but I guess he's the issue here, right?
892
00:51:40,521 --> 00:51:42,980
Don't get me wrong,
Dark's a really nice guy.
893
00:51:43,063 --> 00:51:45,688
The best.
But as long as you're with him,
894
00:51:45,771 --> 00:51:49,480
you can never really enjoy
all the amazing things Light has to...
895
00:51:49,563 --> 00:51:50,438
What?
896
00:51:51,188 --> 00:51:52,146
Uh...
897
00:51:56,230 --> 00:51:57,730
Uh...
898
00:52:04,855 --> 00:52:07,063
Well... [chuckles] time to go.
899
00:52:07,855 --> 00:52:11,146
Sure you don't want to
wait for your new best friend?
900
00:52:17,730 --> 00:52:22,313
Hey, Dark, you know,
I think you're the best.
901
00:52:22,396 --> 00:52:24,896
See, I didn't get that
from the conversation
902
00:52:24,980 --> 00:52:28,021
- back at the house with the door.
- No, no, I was just chatting.
903
00:52:28,105 --> 00:52:30,313
Just because I'm talking
about how much I love ice cream,
904
00:52:30,396 --> 00:52:32,063
doesn't mean I don't love French fries.
905
00:52:32,146 --> 00:52:33,355
- Which one am I?
- What?
906
00:52:33,438 --> 00:52:35,563
Ice cream or French fries?
907
00:52:35,646 --> 00:52:36,938
Um, French fries?
908
00:52:37,021 --> 00:52:38,605
And Light is ice cream?
909
00:52:38,688 --> 00:52:40,771
- Exactly!
- Which one do you love more?
910
00:52:42,355 --> 00:52:43,855
Is that really important?
911
00:52:44,438 --> 00:52:46,105
Exactly!
912
00:52:46,188 --> 00:52:49,146
I'm just saying, I wish you could all
experience daylight. You, too!
913
00:52:49,230 --> 00:52:50,813
That's saying you wish everyone could
914
00:52:50,896 --> 00:52:52,980
experience me not being around.
915
00:52:53,063 --> 00:52:54,813
That's not what I meant to say.
Perfect!
916
00:52:54,896 --> 00:52:57,855
Then you won't mind
unsaying it to the rest of the team,
917
00:52:57,938 --> 00:52:59,938
in a touching, heartfelt speech.
918
00:53:05,938 --> 00:53:06,896
Hello!
919
00:53:08,021 --> 00:53:08,938
Come on.
920
00:53:10,896 --> 00:53:12,605
It has been brought to my attention
921
00:53:12,688 --> 00:53:14,896
that some of my comments
during our last break
922
00:53:14,980 --> 00:53:17,896
have been interpreted
in a way I never intended.
923
00:53:17,980 --> 00:53:19,188
So let me be clear.
924
00:53:19,271 --> 00:53:22,188
I love the nighttime
and my good friend, Dark.
925
00:53:23,230 --> 00:53:24,605
Now, some of you might feel
926
00:53:24,688 --> 00:53:27,230
you are missing out
on other experiences in the world.
927
00:53:27,313 --> 00:53:30,271
But I'd like to take a moment
to remind you of the old adage,
928
00:53:30,355 --> 00:53:32,980
"The grass is always greener
on the other side of the--"
929
00:53:33,063 --> 00:53:36,980
World! Because it's daytime there,
and you can see that it's green!
930
00:53:37,063 --> 00:53:39,063
Wait. Wait.
That's not what I was trying to say.
931
00:53:39,146 --> 00:53:42,313
But it's true! I mean, what does
green grass even look like?
932
00:53:42,396 --> 00:53:44,771
Yeah! Why should
the Day Entities get all the colors?
933
00:53:44,855 --> 00:53:45,688
- Yeah!
- Exactly! See?
934
00:53:45,771 --> 00:53:47,605
- That's what I think, too.
- Okay, everyone.
935
00:53:47,688 --> 00:53:49,980
I think we're getting
a little off-track here.
936
00:53:50,063 --> 00:53:53,438
Dark is great.
He has so many wonderful characteristics.
937
00:53:53,521 --> 00:53:54,855
Like what?
938
00:53:57,105 --> 00:53:59,896
Look... my point is that I was wrong.
939
00:54:00,771 --> 00:54:04,271
Implying that Day is superior
to Night was wrong. Period.
940
00:54:04,355 --> 00:54:05,813
Sure, some people might say
941
00:54:05,896 --> 00:54:09,063
that you're not as pretty and vibrant
as Day, but so what?
942
00:54:09,146 --> 00:54:12,730
Because, ultimately, the thing
that makes the vibrancy of Day exist
943
00:54:12,813 --> 00:54:16,063
is its exact opposite, dark and empty.
944
00:54:16,146 --> 00:54:18,355
So, you see,
if you think about it that way,
945
00:54:18,438 --> 00:54:20,730
you are the wind beneath Day's wings.
946
00:54:20,813 --> 00:54:23,230
I don't think this is helping.
947
00:54:24,688 --> 00:54:28,313
Wait, let me finish.
So, in conclusion, thank you.
948
00:54:28,396 --> 00:54:31,438
Thank you for performing
these humble, thankless tasks,
949
00:54:31,521 --> 00:54:34,480
in order to make
Light-filled Day great again.
950
00:54:37,688 --> 00:54:41,021
- Well, that's it. I'm leaving.
- What? You're leaving?
951
00:54:41,105 --> 00:54:42,230
Actually, I'm staying.
952
00:54:42,313 --> 00:54:46,105
I'm staying and waiting for daylight.
Maybe I'll be able to get a job there.
953
00:54:46,188 --> 00:54:47,980
Oh, come on. Be reasonable.
954
00:54:48,063 --> 00:54:50,855
You! Don't even talk to me, you.
955
00:54:50,938 --> 00:54:55,688
You're the reason everyone hates us.
It's you and your infernal Dark.
956
00:54:55,771 --> 00:54:58,188
- But I'm your friend.
- Some friend!
957
00:54:58,271 --> 00:55:01,480
Keeping me from the true beauty of life.
958
00:55:01,563 --> 00:55:05,271
Come on, Unexplained Noises, we all know
you're not actually going to quit.
959
00:55:05,355 --> 00:55:08,021
My name is Debby now. Call me Debby.
960
00:55:09,188 --> 00:55:10,688
Debby!
961
00:55:13,521 --> 00:55:15,605
Well, that's just great.
962
00:55:15,688 --> 00:55:18,688
But at least we've got
the rest of you. Right?
963
00:55:18,771 --> 00:55:20,938
Come on, guys, let's hit the road.
964
00:55:24,438 --> 00:55:28,605
I think what Debby means is that we could
all use a little light in our lives.
965
00:55:28,688 --> 00:55:29,980
We all need to feel seen and--
966
00:55:30,063 --> 00:55:33,230
Well, since no one else will,
I'm just going to come out and say it.
967
00:55:33,313 --> 00:55:35,480
We all need to feel seen and heard.
968
00:55:35,563 --> 00:55:37,480
- Yeah! That's what I've been saying.
- Yeah, we do!
969
00:55:37,563 --> 00:55:40,021
- Exactly!
- That's it. I quit!
970
00:55:42,730 --> 00:55:45,646
I'm quitting, too.
I'm sick of living in your shadow.
971
00:55:45,730 --> 00:55:47,063
Wait, what?
972
00:55:47,146 --> 00:55:51,438
Daydreams are a thing, right?
I bet that'll be a fun new challenge.
973
00:55:51,521 --> 00:55:53,438
Definitely better than nightmares.
974
00:55:53,521 --> 00:55:54,771
Dreams, please...
975
00:55:54,855 --> 00:55:58,271
Well, that does it.
If Dreams is quitting then so am I.
976
00:55:58,355 --> 00:56:01,063
I'm not sticking around
in the nighttime for dreamless sleep.
977
00:56:01,146 --> 00:56:02,480
What's the point?
978
00:56:02,563 --> 00:56:05,021
Well, if Sleep leaves, then, what...
979
00:56:05,105 --> 00:56:07,980
it's my job to keep everyone awake
all the time?
980
00:56:08,063 --> 00:56:09,855
No, no. That's too much work.
981
00:56:10,521 --> 00:56:11,605
I quit, too.
982
00:56:13,813 --> 00:56:16,271
Okay, break time's over, guys.
983
00:56:16,355 --> 00:56:19,355
Stop messing around.
We need to keep moving.
984
00:56:22,688 --> 00:56:26,021
Can't wait to see the dawn of a new day.
985
00:56:26,813 --> 00:56:30,480
Guys, don't make me
do this by myself, please.
986
00:56:30,563 --> 00:56:31,896
We all need to work together.
987
00:56:31,980 --> 00:56:32,980
We're...
988
00:56:33,063 --> 00:56:34,646
we're friends.
989
00:56:37,771 --> 00:56:41,730
Well, I really enjoyed spending
all that time with you all.
990
00:56:43,396 --> 00:56:45,188
Have a good morning.
991
00:57:14,771 --> 00:57:17,313
Good morning, everybody!
992
00:57:17,396 --> 00:57:20,230
Did someone say, "Light"?
993
00:57:28,438 --> 00:57:31,313
Honestly, I don't know
what anyone sees in him.
994
00:57:33,355 --> 00:57:35,021
That makes one of us.
995
00:57:39,605 --> 00:57:41,646
There's nothing left of the night but me.
996
00:57:43,105 --> 00:57:45,105
This isn't night anymore.
997
00:57:46,646 --> 00:57:48,896
It looks like nothing now.
998
00:57:48,980 --> 00:57:51,063
It sounds like nothing.
999
00:57:51,146 --> 00:57:53,771
And tomorrow, even you're gone.
1000
00:57:55,605 --> 00:57:58,271
So I just fly around by myself forever?
1001
00:57:58,896 --> 00:58:02,646
- This was a terrible idea.
- I'm really sorry.
1002
00:58:02,730 --> 00:58:05,063
Maybe tomorrow,
I can find them during the day,
1003
00:58:05,146 --> 00:58:07,521
- and I can try to convince them that--
- No!
1004
00:58:07,605 --> 00:58:09,396
I'm not going on.
1005
00:58:12,438 --> 00:58:15,396
I'm going to sit on this...
whatever it is.
1006
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,896
Rock? I don't know.
I don't think it's alive.
1007
00:58:17,980 --> 00:58:21,021
I'm gonna sit right here
on this thing and wait for daylight.
1008
00:58:21,105 --> 00:58:23,438
- No, you can't!
- Why not?
1009
00:58:23,521 --> 00:58:24,813
Nobody likes me anyway.
1010
00:58:24,896 --> 00:58:27,646
- That's not true.
- So where did everyone go?
1011
00:58:34,938 --> 00:58:36,146
Hey, Dark!
1012
00:58:36,230 --> 00:58:38,355
Let's go! Move it or lose it.
1013
00:58:39,896 --> 00:58:41,396
Uh, Dark?
1014
00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:44,355
Come on! Let's go.
1015
00:58:44,438 --> 00:58:46,730
Dark, come on, you can't be in the light.
1016
00:58:46,813 --> 00:58:49,105
You can't be where you're not.
You'll disappear.
1017
00:58:49,188 --> 00:58:52,063
I'm willing to risk that possibility.
1018
00:58:52,146 --> 00:58:53,021
Okay.
1019
00:58:53,105 --> 00:58:55,521
Don't say I didn't warn you.
1020
00:58:55,605 --> 00:58:58,271
- Wait, don't!
- I'm really sorry, kid.
1021
00:58:58,355 --> 00:59:00,896
But day waits for no one.
1022
00:59:02,271 --> 00:59:04,313
Dark, you have to leave now!
1023
00:59:06,646 --> 00:59:09,355
Oh, I didn't get that right at all.
1024
00:59:09,438 --> 00:59:10,938
What are the odds?
1025
00:59:12,271 --> 00:59:13,438
No! Dark!
1026
00:59:16,146 --> 00:59:17,480
Dark!
1027
00:59:31,313 --> 00:59:33,646
Bummer. I-I tried to warn him.
1028
00:59:34,271 --> 00:59:38,563
Well, I have to go make
life on Earth possible and stuff, so...
1029
00:59:38,646 --> 00:59:39,938
see you, kid.
1030
00:59:40,938 --> 00:59:43,480
- Good morning, everyone!
1031
00:59:43,563 --> 00:59:47,563
I hope your days are
as bright and beautiful as your faces.
1032
00:59:52,271 --> 00:59:54,480
Yeah, but then what?
1033
00:59:54,563 --> 00:59:56,605
- I don't know.
- What do you mean?
1034
00:59:56,688 --> 00:59:59,188
I don't know what's next.
That's all I got.
1035
00:59:59,271 --> 01:00:02,521
You're just leaving little you
all by himself in the middle of...
1036
01:00:02,605 --> 01:00:03,605
Where are you?
1037
01:00:03,688 --> 01:00:06,063
Europe somewhere? I-I don't know.
1038
01:00:06,146 --> 01:00:07,730
That's not a good ending.
1039
01:00:07,813 --> 01:00:10,313
Yeah. I've said
it was a complicated story.
1040
01:00:10,396 --> 01:00:12,230
I guess I just ran out of ideas.
1041
01:00:12,313 --> 01:00:14,396
It's your story. It happened to you!
1042
01:00:14,980 --> 01:00:17,938
True. But I don't know how it ends.
1043
01:00:26,355 --> 01:00:29,480
These visible patterns
amongst the stars
1044
01:00:29,563 --> 01:00:31,896
came to be known as constellations.
1045
01:00:31,980 --> 01:00:34,480
Looking over various
ancient depictions
1046
01:00:34,563 --> 01:00:36,188
of the night sky,
1047
01:00:36,271 --> 01:00:39,188
- we start to recognize...
- We're looking at a ceiling.
1048
01:00:39,271 --> 01:00:42,980
It's a really good illusion, though.
And highly educational.
1049
01:00:43,521 --> 01:00:46,230
We should be able
to look at the real sky at night.
1050
01:00:47,730 --> 01:00:49,980
They build a city
that blocks out the stars,
1051
01:00:50,063 --> 01:00:52,230
then they put up fake stars to look at?
1052
01:00:53,146 --> 01:00:57,521
That's... That's a really profound
thought, sweetie.
1053
01:00:57,605 --> 01:01:00,771
Thanks.
I didn't mean to put down your job.
1054
01:01:00,855 --> 01:01:03,563
I really think the planetarium is cool.
Really cool.
1055
01:01:03,646 --> 01:01:05,521
It's a cool place to work.
1056
01:01:05,605 --> 01:01:10,480
Thanks. I like it,
and I like what you said. Both things.
1057
01:01:15,313 --> 01:01:18,355
Maybe I have an idea
about where the story could go.
1058
01:01:18,438 --> 01:01:20,063
Oh, yeah? Well, let's hear it.
1059
01:01:20,146 --> 01:01:21,730
Really? Are you sure?
1060
01:01:21,813 --> 01:01:24,230
I'm very sure. Go on.
1061
01:01:24,313 --> 01:01:26,813
Okay. So, I show up.
1062
01:01:26,896 --> 01:01:28,396
- You?
- Do you not like it?
1063
01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:30,563
No, I love it. Keep going.
1064
01:01:30,646 --> 01:01:33,896
I always wondered if we would be friends
if we were the same age.
1065
01:01:33,980 --> 01:01:36,646
I can't wait to find out.
Please, continue.
1066
01:01:37,813 --> 01:01:40,063
Okay. So, I show up.
1067
01:01:44,271 --> 01:01:45,313
Hello.
1068
01:01:45,938 --> 01:01:50,063
Uh, hello, person appearing on my turtle.
1069
01:01:50,146 --> 01:01:52,230
I'm Hypatia.
1070
01:01:52,313 --> 01:01:54,063
The ancient Greek astronomer?
1071
01:01:54,146 --> 01:01:57,521
Well, I'm not her.
Named after her, though.
1072
01:01:57,605 --> 01:02:00,480
I guess that makes more sense. I'm Orion.
1073
01:02:00,563 --> 01:02:02,105
The constellation.
1074
01:02:02,896 --> 01:02:06,188
Yes, which, to me, looks less
like a hunter and more like a...
1075
01:02:06,813 --> 01:02:09,646
like a robot waiting for a hug.
1076
01:02:10,271 --> 01:02:12,813
Yeah. I've heard that.
1077
01:02:13,646 --> 01:02:15,355
Do you know where we are?
1078
01:02:15,438 --> 01:02:18,146
Europe somewhere? I don't know.
1079
01:02:18,230 --> 01:02:20,730
Oh, man. I'm so far from home.
1080
01:02:20,813 --> 01:02:22,855
I ruined a lot of things last night.
1081
01:02:22,938 --> 01:02:25,563
I know. I've been following your story.
1082
01:02:25,646 --> 01:02:26,771
- Really?
- Yeah.
1083
01:02:26,855 --> 01:02:28,521
Without night,
people won't be able to sleep.
1084
01:02:28,605 --> 01:02:30,980
And without sleep,
everyone's gonna go crazy.
1085
01:02:31,063 --> 01:02:33,480
- We can't let this happen!
- That's why I'm here.
1086
01:02:33,563 --> 01:02:36,980
I think I have an idea about how to get
all the Night Entities back.
1087
01:02:37,063 --> 01:02:39,271
Really? What's your idea?
1088
01:02:39,355 --> 01:02:41,813
I have a poem I wrote to try to help.
1089
01:02:46,771 --> 01:02:49,646
"Now that it's gone, I miss the night
1090
01:02:49,730 --> 01:02:52,021
Now that the only thing left is light"
1091
01:02:55,980 --> 01:02:58,146
I don't know.
I don't think this will help.
1092
01:02:58,230 --> 01:02:59,855
Keep going.
1093
01:03:01,605 --> 01:03:04,813
"And something else
Neither night nor day
1094
01:03:04,896 --> 01:03:07,938
- Maybe everyone cheers, 'Hooray'
1095
01:03:09,188 --> 01:03:12,563
But I miss the night
Because it's like me
1096
01:03:13,396 --> 01:03:16,855
And when it is dark is when I best see
1097
01:03:16,938 --> 01:03:20,438
Maybe the world has become too bright"
1098
01:03:22,563 --> 01:03:25,230
"Too loud, too selfish,
and ready to fight"
1099
01:03:27,521 --> 01:03:29,271
Possible apocalyptic event,
1100
01:03:29,355 --> 01:03:31,021
which is creating a climate emergency,
1101
01:03:31,105 --> 01:03:34,063
with catastrophic consequences
in the absence of darkness.
1102
01:03:36,813 --> 01:03:41,271
Huh. It's not quite how I imagined it.
1103
01:03:41,355 --> 01:03:43,896
"And the one
That is quiet never gets heard
1104
01:03:45,438 --> 01:03:48,855
And the ones that are awkward
Dismissed as mere nerds"
1105
01:03:48,938 --> 01:03:49,813
Huh.
1106
01:03:49,896 --> 01:03:51,355
Okay.
1107
01:03:53,438 --> 01:03:56,188
I gotta admit, this is starting
to undermine my confidence a little.
1108
01:03:57,438 --> 01:04:00,313
"I once thought quiet
The absence of sound
1109
01:04:01,271 --> 01:04:04,938
But learned it's the space
Where small sounds can be found
1110
01:04:05,021 --> 01:04:08,271
I once thought Dark
Was the absence of Light
1111
01:04:10,313 --> 01:04:13,396
But it is the place
Where starlight is bright
1112
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:16,646
The Quiet, the Dark
The Dreams once embraced me
1113
01:04:16,730 --> 01:04:19,771
They let me feel safe
In a world that erased me
1114
01:04:20,313 --> 01:04:23,063
Now that it's gone, I miss the night
1115
01:04:23,146 --> 01:04:26,355
Now that the only thing left is light"
1116
01:04:28,063 --> 01:04:29,855
You're a poet.
1117
01:04:30,521 --> 01:04:32,855
Yeah, I am.
1118
01:04:32,938 --> 01:04:36,271
- It was beautiful. Thank you.
1119
01:04:37,521 --> 01:04:40,813
We need to bring the night
back to the world.
1120
01:04:40,896 --> 01:04:44,188
But Dark is... He's gone.
We can't make night without him.
1121
01:04:44,271 --> 01:04:45,480
But he's not.
1122
01:04:45,563 --> 01:04:47,813
Dark is still very much alive,
1123
01:04:47,896 --> 01:04:49,146
in your memory.
1124
01:04:49,230 --> 01:04:51,730
But the only one
who can access your memories is--
1125
01:04:51,813 --> 01:04:53,813
Dreams. We need your help, Dreams.
1126
01:04:53,896 --> 01:04:55,188
We need all of you.
1127
01:04:55,271 --> 01:04:56,771
The whole team.
1128
01:04:57,438 --> 01:04:59,355
Remember, if you die in the dream,
you die in real life.
1129
01:04:59,438 --> 01:05:02,396
- Insomnia!
- What? I'm doing my job!
1130
01:05:05,938 --> 01:05:07,480
Uh...
1131
01:05:07,563 --> 01:05:10,855
On second thought, maybe it's not such
a good idea to put the fate of the world
1132
01:05:10,938 --> 01:05:12,730
in the hands of an 11-year-old kid
1133
01:05:12,813 --> 01:05:14,605
with severe performance anxiety.
1134
01:05:14,688 --> 01:05:15,646
Don't worry.
1135
01:05:15,730 --> 01:05:17,563
I'll be right there with you.
1136
01:05:20,855 --> 01:05:22,271
I'm on it.
1137
01:05:33,730 --> 01:05:35,646
Okay, Sleep. You're up.
1138
01:05:35,730 --> 01:05:38,605
Do not worry. I've got this.
1139
01:05:38,688 --> 01:05:40,813
All right. Time to put you to...
1140
01:05:41,771 --> 01:05:43,146
sheep!
1141
01:05:50,605 --> 01:05:52,313
Great job, Sleep.
1142
01:05:53,563 --> 01:05:54,688
You ready?
1143
01:05:55,646 --> 01:05:57,771
Sweet dreams, Orion.
1144
01:06:05,896 --> 01:06:10,813
We're gonna have to go deep.
Into the darkest recesses of his mind.
1145
01:06:15,188 --> 01:06:17,021
Talking to Sally.
1146
01:06:18,855 --> 01:06:20,396
Speaking in class.
1147
01:06:21,855 --> 01:06:23,313
Murder clowns.
1148
01:06:25,271 --> 01:06:29,480
Cell phone waves... Mosquito
bites...
1149
01:06:29,563 --> 01:06:32,105
- Falling off a skyscraper.
-
1150
01:06:33,438 --> 01:06:35,021
Oh, yes. Here it is.
1151
01:06:36,313 --> 01:06:38,480
It's the night you first met Dark.
1152
01:06:41,396 --> 01:06:43,438
You're in your bedroom...
1153
01:06:43,521 --> 01:06:46,563
you hear a low rumbling
from the room's darkest corner.
1154
01:06:48,188 --> 01:06:50,730
You see an ominous form taking shape...
1155
01:06:50,813 --> 01:06:52,271
as if being drawn out of
1156
01:06:52,355 --> 01:06:53,980
the very darkness of the room.
1157
01:06:57,521 --> 01:07:00,313
- Dark!
- Orion!
1158
01:07:00,396 --> 01:07:04,396
- You came back for me.
- Of course I did. You're my friend.
1159
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:06,563
I was afraid I lost you.
1160
01:07:06,646 --> 01:07:09,271
Nope. I'm right here, bud.
1161
01:07:12,896 --> 01:07:13,938
Huh?
1162
01:07:16,021 --> 01:07:17,271
- Whoa!
- Dark!
1163
01:07:17,355 --> 01:07:19,146
- Oh, no!
1164
01:07:34,146 --> 01:07:35,563
Dark!
1165
01:07:37,730 --> 01:07:39,438
Orion!
1166
01:08:18,730 --> 01:08:19,730
What is that?
1167
01:08:19,813 --> 01:08:21,355
Why does it keep showing up?
1168
01:08:21,438 --> 01:08:25,771
This is in your head, Orion!
You're the only one who can stop it!
1169
01:08:25,855 --> 01:08:28,105
You have to go in there and pull him out!
1170
01:08:28,188 --> 01:08:30,563
I can't just jump in there!
What's gonna happen?
1171
01:08:30,646 --> 01:08:34,855
I have no idea,
but I think that's the point!
1172
01:08:34,938 --> 01:08:36,938
Wh-- What are you talking about?
1173
01:08:37,021 --> 01:08:38,521
We always want to know the ending
1174
01:08:38,605 --> 01:08:40,980
because it makes things less scary
in the middle parts.
1175
01:08:41,063 --> 01:08:44,438
But maybe being scared
is just a part of life.
1176
01:08:44,521 --> 01:08:47,188
I think you just need to feel the fear.
1177
01:08:48,021 --> 01:08:49,980
And do it anyway.
1178
01:08:56,855 --> 01:08:58,188
Good luck, Orion.
1179
01:08:58,271 --> 01:09:00,188
Thank you, Hypatia.
1180
01:09:10,146 --> 01:09:13,146
Hang on, Dark. I'm coming!
1181
01:09:13,896 --> 01:09:16,521
Orion! Over here!
1182
01:09:17,021 --> 01:09:18,313
Orion!
1183
01:09:22,855 --> 01:09:24,313
Dark!
1184
01:09:28,688 --> 01:09:30,188
Now let's get you out of here.
1185
01:09:41,271 --> 01:09:42,438
It's not gonna hold!
1186
01:09:42,521 --> 01:09:44,480
Oh, no. Just hang on.
1187
01:09:54,646 --> 01:09:56,521
We need to wake him up now!
1188
01:09:57,230 --> 01:09:59,896
If we don't do something,
they're both going to--
1189
01:09:59,980 --> 01:10:02,105
Get torn into
a million tiny pieces and die?
1190
01:10:02,938 --> 01:10:05,063
Move over. I've got this.
1191
01:10:09,938 --> 01:10:11,730
It's going to suck us in!
1192
01:10:12,271 --> 01:10:13,771
What happens now?
1193
01:10:13,855 --> 01:10:16,855
I don't know.
But being with you, somehow,
1194
01:10:16,938 --> 01:10:20,313
it makes the horror of the unknown
less horrible.
1195
01:10:20,396 --> 01:10:22,271
I know what you mean.
1196
01:10:22,355 --> 01:10:26,563
- It's been a pleasure knowing you, Orion.
- The pleasure is all mine.
1197
01:10:42,230 --> 01:10:43,230
Orion!
1198
01:10:43,313 --> 01:10:44,980
Time to wake up!
You're late for school!
1199
01:10:45,063 --> 01:10:47,730
You read an article
about how sleep stunts your growth!
1200
01:10:47,813 --> 01:10:49,021
Come on, wake up!
1201
01:10:49,105 --> 01:10:51,396
- Why isn't it working?
- I don't know, man!
1202
01:10:51,480 --> 01:10:53,730
I've never put that many Z's
on anyone before!
1203
01:10:53,813 --> 01:10:57,063
Wake up, wake up! Time to wake up!
1204
01:10:58,855 --> 01:11:00,438
Wake up!
1205
01:11:00,521 --> 01:11:02,646
- Wake up already!
- Come on, wake up!
1206
01:11:17,688 --> 01:11:22,230
Orion, if you don't wake up
you're going to miss your field trip.
1207
01:11:22,313 --> 01:11:24,313
You're going to miss your field trip.
1208
01:11:27,146 --> 01:11:28,813
Sally!
1209
01:12:08,855 --> 01:12:10,855
Dark. We made it.
1210
01:12:10,938 --> 01:12:13,146
That's some nice work, kid.
1211
01:12:36,313 --> 01:12:41,563
All right! There it is.
Glad to have you back, old buddy.
1212
01:13:13,688 --> 01:13:17,438
Bye, Orion. It's been a dream
spending the night with you.
1213
01:13:17,521 --> 01:13:20,396
- It really has.
- See you, Hypatia.
1214
01:13:20,480 --> 01:13:22,105
I admire your work.
1215
01:13:22,188 --> 01:13:24,105
And I admire yours.
1216
01:13:25,021 --> 01:13:27,271
And I admire yours, too.
1217
01:13:29,313 --> 01:13:31,521
Oh... [soft chuckle] Wow.
1218
01:13:33,771 --> 01:13:35,438
You're the best, Dark.
1219
01:13:36,105 --> 01:13:38,188
Yeah, I second that.
1220
01:13:39,271 --> 01:13:42,396
- Thanks for everything, Dark.
- Hear, hear.
1221
01:13:51,855 --> 01:13:56,230
- So, this is it.
- But I'll see you tomorrow night.
1222
01:13:56,771 --> 01:14:00,896
Ah, sure. You'll see dark.
I mean, I won't look exactly like this.
1223
01:14:01,605 --> 01:14:03,396
But you'll see me in new ways.
1224
01:14:03,480 --> 01:14:05,896
Ways that are even better.
1225
01:14:05,980 --> 01:14:08,271
Yeah. I can see that now,
1226
01:14:08,355 --> 01:14:10,021
and I can appreciate it.
1227
01:14:11,188 --> 01:14:12,396
Thanks for that.
1228
01:14:13,563 --> 01:14:16,313
No. Thank you, Orion.
1229
01:14:16,396 --> 01:14:19,230
- For what?
- Well, seeing me the way you do.
1230
01:14:19,313 --> 01:14:23,896
So much of how you see yourself
is through the eyes of others. You know?
1231
01:14:25,605 --> 01:14:29,021
So, you gonna go
on that field trip tomorrow?
1232
01:14:29,105 --> 01:14:30,063
Yep.
1233
01:14:30,146 --> 01:14:32,355
- You nervous?
- Terrified.
1234
01:14:36,730 --> 01:14:38,271
But I'm going anyway.
1235
01:14:39,146 --> 01:14:42,105
Ah, good for you, kid.
You're gonna be all right.
1236
01:14:43,271 --> 01:14:45,480
Well, it was nice meeting you, Hypatia.
1237
01:14:45,563 --> 01:14:47,563
It was nice meeting you, too, Dark.
1238
01:15:10,355 --> 01:15:13,438
- You've got a good father there.
- I know.
1239
01:15:13,521 --> 01:15:14,605
Wait, what?
1240
01:15:25,896 --> 01:15:28,230
- I don't understand.
- I came to help you get home.
1241
01:15:28,313 --> 01:15:30,563
- From the future?
- Um, I guess so, yeah.
1242
01:15:30,646 --> 01:15:33,271
- Am I okay, in the future?
- Yeah, you're doing good.
1243
01:15:33,355 --> 01:15:35,896
So, I don't have to worry so much,
is what you're saying?
1244
01:15:35,980 --> 01:15:37,521
I guess that's what I'm saying.
1245
01:15:41,188 --> 01:15:42,438
They look so young.
1246
01:15:42,521 --> 01:15:45,021
Really?
They look a million years old to me.
1247
01:15:47,105 --> 01:15:48,105
What?
1248
01:15:49,938 --> 01:15:53,146
Orion. I thought we agreed,
no check-ins tonight.
1249
01:15:53,230 --> 01:15:56,438
We did, Dad. It's tomorrow night.
You and Mom slept through the entire day.
1250
01:15:56,521 --> 01:16:01,480
- What? Oh, my God, it's true.
- Really? Holy cow, we overslept!
1251
01:16:01,563 --> 01:16:03,021
Yeah, I think you were tired.
1252
01:16:03,105 --> 01:16:05,938
I-I wanted to let you sleep.
To give you a break.
1253
01:16:07,438 --> 01:16:09,021
Who's that?
1254
01:16:09,105 --> 01:16:10,980
Believe it or not,
that's my child...
1255
01:16:11,938 --> 01:16:13,188
hood friend.
1256
01:16:13,271 --> 01:16:15,980
- Oh! Nice to meet you.
- Hi.
1257
01:16:16,063 --> 01:16:17,896
- What's your name?
- Hypatia.
1258
01:16:17,980 --> 01:16:18,896
That's pretty.
1259
01:16:18,980 --> 01:16:22,605
So, I was wondering
if you could maybe drive Hypatia home.
1260
01:16:22,688 --> 01:16:25,313
- Um, where do you live, sweetheart?
- Manhattan.
1261
01:16:25,396 --> 01:16:28,646
Manhattan? How'd you get here?
Do your parents know you're here?
1262
01:16:30,105 --> 01:16:33,188
- Uh, sort of.
- And they can't pick you up?
1263
01:16:33,271 --> 01:16:35,146
- Um--
- Oh, yeah, right.
1264
01:16:35,230 --> 01:16:36,688
Maybe we'll give them a call.
1265
01:16:39,563 --> 01:16:40,938
- What do we do?
- I don't know.
1266
01:16:41,021 --> 01:16:43,688
We can't just drop you off in New York
20 years before you were born.
1267
01:16:43,771 --> 01:16:44,730
Yes, I know.
1268
01:16:44,813 --> 01:16:46,396
How did you get back here
in the first place?
1269
01:16:46,480 --> 01:16:48,896
- I don't know. I just did it.
- Well, do it again.
1270
01:16:48,980 --> 01:16:49,896
Okay.
1271
01:16:50,521 --> 01:16:52,396
Mm...
1272
01:16:53,688 --> 01:16:56,063
- What's wrong?
- I don't know. It's not working.
1273
01:16:56,146 --> 01:16:58,521
This is terrible.
Maybe my parents can adopt you.
1274
01:16:58,605 --> 01:17:01,521
- What? No! What about Mom?
- She seemed to like you in there.
1275
01:17:01,605 --> 01:17:04,271
Not your mom. My mom. Your wife?
1276
01:17:04,355 --> 01:17:05,605
Oh, yeah.
1277
01:17:05,688 --> 01:17:07,188
I have a wife?
1278
01:17:07,271 --> 01:17:09,896
- Yes, my mother!
- I know!
1279
01:17:10,521 --> 01:17:12,063
This is a disaster!
1280
01:17:12,146 --> 01:17:14,188
- Huh?
1281
01:17:21,646 --> 01:17:22,896
Who are you?
1282
01:17:22,980 --> 01:17:25,105
I'm Tycho. I came to help.
1283
01:17:25,188 --> 01:17:27,063
I have my time machine out on your lawn.
1284
01:17:27,146 --> 01:17:28,813
I can take you home.
1285
01:17:28,896 --> 01:17:31,230
- You can?
- But we have to go now.
1286
01:17:31,313 --> 01:17:34,355
Coming back to get you has released
interdimensional time monsters,
1287
01:17:34,438 --> 01:17:37,771
and we have to stop them
before they multiply and destroy history!
1288
01:17:41,855 --> 01:17:43,980
See you in 20 years.
1289
01:17:44,063 --> 01:17:45,938
See you in 20 years.
1290
01:17:51,771 --> 01:17:53,938
When I say "now,"
make a beeline for the capsule.
1291
01:17:54,980 --> 01:17:55,813
Got it!
1292
01:18:02,271 --> 01:18:05,105
- Now!
1293
01:18:14,605 --> 01:18:16,146
Oh, yeah!
1294
01:18:22,980 --> 01:18:24,438
Hold on to your butts!
1295
01:18:40,230 --> 01:18:41,313
What the...
1296
01:18:44,271 --> 01:18:45,605
Dad!
1297
01:18:45,688 --> 01:18:46,563
Hypatia!
1298
01:19:02,438 --> 01:19:06,230
Hi, Tycho. Long time no see.
You haven't changed a bit.
1299
01:19:06,313 --> 01:19:08,271
You have. You're so old now.
1300
01:19:09,646 --> 01:19:12,188
Well, I guess
I have grown up a little bit.
1301
01:19:12,271 --> 01:19:14,313
Well, gotta go.
1302
01:19:14,396 --> 01:19:15,938
Thank you for getting me home.
1303
01:19:16,021 --> 01:19:17,021
No problem.
1304
01:19:25,146 --> 01:19:29,021
And then I piloted the time machine module
all the way back here,
1305
01:19:29,105 --> 01:19:31,813
killed the time monsters,
and climbed back in bed.
1306
01:19:31,896 --> 01:19:35,438
- Huh. That's such a good ending.
- Yeah?
1307
01:19:35,521 --> 01:19:39,855
Definitely. Thank you for figuring it out.
I was stuck.
1308
01:19:42,146 --> 01:19:44,271
- You sleepy?
- Yeah.
1309
01:19:46,480 --> 01:19:49,146
- Goodnight, sweetie.
- Goodnight, Mom.
1310
01:19:53,771 --> 01:19:55,563
Open or closed?
1311
01:19:55,646 --> 01:19:57,688
Mm. Closed tonight.
1312
01:19:57,771 --> 01:20:00,188
Okay. Sleep tight.
1313
01:20:17,938 --> 01:20:19,105
Hey, Dad.
1314
01:20:19,730 --> 01:20:20,855
He asleep?
1315
01:20:20,938 --> 01:20:24,021
- Almost.
- Did he come up with an ending?
1316
01:20:24,105 --> 01:20:24,980
He did.
1317
01:20:25,063 --> 01:20:27,438
Time machine.
1318
01:20:27,521 --> 01:20:31,771
Oh, that's good.
A time machine.
1319
01:20:31,855 --> 01:20:33,396
That's a good idea.
1320
01:20:33,480 --> 01:20:36,563
I thought so, too. You up for a while?
1321
01:20:36,646 --> 01:20:38,563
I'm heading back to the city
in the morning,
1322
01:20:38,646 --> 01:20:42,271
so I thought I would
just enjoy the night for a bit.
1323
01:20:42,355 --> 01:20:45,355
Okay, Dad. I'm turning in.
1324
01:20:47,563 --> 01:20:48,730
Goodnight, Hypatia.
1325
01:20:50,521 --> 01:20:51,938
Goodnight, Mom.
1326
01:20:52,605 --> 01:20:54,230
Goodnight, Hypatia.
1327
01:20:55,855 --> 01:20:58,021
Mind if I sit with you?
1328
01:20:58,605 --> 01:21:00,521
I would love that.
