In the lair mikey and Lizzie were under blankets watching scary videos. Mikey was sacred but Lizzie wasn't

Leo: what are you two watching?

Mikey and Lizzie came out of her blankets

Mikey: I was just watching my favorite can stacking channel

Lizzie: mikey asked me to watch it with him

Leo: thank is being idea we can go to the movies for our next date!

Lizzie: That sounds great Leo!

April: wait can stacking? Okay...

Mikey: It's a thing. There's the one supermarket stock boy. He builds forts towers national monuments

Lizzie: it's actually kinda cool

Leo looked at Mikey's tablet

Leo: Yeah I see his channel has a like.

Mikey: I would've liked it twice if I could. Anyway he's at the store after hours and you have to see it!

The four of them watched the lasted video and Baxter Stock boy was attacked by a ghost he called the

April: Whoa! What's a Gumbus?

Mikey: It's a ghost that haunts the Stock N Shop.

Leo: There's gotta be a simple answer. Earthquakes magnets giant prankster mice. There's no such thing as ghosts

Mikey: What? How can you say there's no such thing as ghosts when there's no such a thing as us? The Gumbus is real!

Leo: No it's not! Lizzie back me up here

Lizzie: I don't know Leo. There are a lot of different kinds of creatures and yokai where I'm from. A ghost isn't completely out of the question

Mikey: see?! Lizzie believes me!

Lizzie: I'm sure there's someone who knows about ghosts

Mikey: really? Who you gonna call?

Lizzie: I have no idea

April: Only one way to settle this heated debate. We head up to the Stock N Shop and tamper with the mysterious forces of the underworld!

Lizzie: I'll go with you. It would be cool to see a real ghost up close

Leo: your not scared?

Lizzie: I grew up in the hidden city. There are a lot more scarier things then ghosts

Mikey: I'm fine just getting the pants scared off of me in my pillow fort

Leo: Oh no. April's right. I'm going prove to you there's no such thing as a Gumbus.

Mikey: Leo no I don't want to go please!

April: Yeah! Ghost hunting!
