Molly: Hey, Scratch!

He gets sucked out of his dollhouse

He hits the wall

He screams

Scratch: Molly and Nightwolf, turn around please!

Nightwolf: Oh, what's the big deal? You don't even wear clothes.

He covering himself with a towel

Scratch: Yes, but I happen to emotionally naked right now! Ahem, what's so urgent that you both ripped me away from my me time?

Molly: We're...afraid, Scratch.

Now interested on what Molly and Nightwolf has to say

Scratch: Now we're getting somewhere!

He pulls out pencil and paper

Scratch: Be specific please.

Bouncer Ghost: Not the worst of the worst.

He grabs Scratch and throws him out
