Clip 1

The rent is overdue and, not surprisingly, the landlord has come sniffing for what is owed. Something tells me that he's going to wind up disappointed.

Callie

I'm literally driving to pick up a cheque right now.

Landlord

You... win lottery?

Callie

Kind of. My father died. Relax... I didn't even know him. I'm surprised he left me anything.

Landlord

Sounds like my father.

Callie

Yeah? Did your Dad, uh... abandon your family and move to a farm in the middle of nowhere?

Landlord

No.

Clip 2

The family have finally arrived in Summerville and first impressions aren't good.

Callie

There it is. This is Summerville. This is where your grandfather lived.

Phoebe

And died.

Trevor

[Looking at his phone and sighing]

Come on... not a single bar?

Callie

There'd better be a bar.

Phoebe

That's funny.

Clip 3

Summerville is plagued with inexplicable earth tremors. Not volcanic, not tectonic but it could be fracking... annoying.

[The house begins to shake as an earth tremor threatens to bring it crashing down]

Callie

UNDER THE DINING TABLE... NOW!

Trevor

Remember that summer we died under a table?!

Callie

Of course this place is built on a fault-line.

Phoebe

Probably just fracking.

Callie

It's fracking annoying is what it is.

Clip 4

The local drive-thru restaurant is Spinners and Trevor has his eye on a job there. They're advertising for staff and all he needs is a foot in the door. From a girl he's fallen head-over-heels for.

Trevor

Do you think you can put in a good word for me?

Lucky

I can tell them you have a pulse.

Trevor

[Shouting after LUCKY who has walked away]

MY NAME'S TREVOR

Kitchen Staff

[Mocking TREVOR]

My name's Trevor!

Chef

You know, that was great.

Cook

Dude, that was really cute. You have a chance with her. You really do.

Clip 5

It's Trevor and Phoebe's first day at a new school. Tension is high. Which is when Callie comes up with this frankly awful piece of advice.

Callie

Hey, Phoebs. At school today, don't be afraid to just start a conversation.

Trevor

Are you kidding me? That's horrible advice. You're literally setting her up for failure.

[TREVOR turns to speak to his sister who is in the back of the car]

Hey. How are the jokes coming along?

Phoebe

Why should you never trust atoms? Because they make up everything.

Callie

That's funny.

Trevor

No. It's not. Okay, you can drop me off here.

Callie

Oh. What, are you embarrassed?

Trevor

Yup. Bye.

Clip 6

Grooberson is discussing the form of the tremors with twelve-year-old Phoebe. He knows she's smart but he wasn't expecting a joke of THIS magnitude.

Grooberson

This is a volcano, all right?

[GROOBERSON draws a wave steadily increasing in intensity on a white board]

It... builds... in crests. But this is a tectonic earthquake. Notice, little P wave followed by a large S wave.

Phoebe

Well, yeah. I'm not an idiot.

Grooberson

Clearly. Well, this is the pattern in Summerville. Large P wave, small S wave. Like an explosion.

Phoebe

Where's it coming from?

Grooberson

I dunno. I dunno. I've set up geophones but I can't triangulate.

Phoebe

Are you using three?

Grooberson

Yeah. I know how many sides there are in a triangle.

Phoebe

I just thought you were being obtuse.

[She slowly and deliberately winks with her left eye]

Grooberson

Was that a geometry joke?

Phoebe

Yes. That's why I winked.

Grooberson

Ah. That's terrible. No, I loved it!

Clip 7

Grooberson, aided by Phoebe and Podcast, is about to open the trap containing the Muncher. That's a ghost in case you're wondering.

Grooberson

History is safe. Geometry... that's safe. But science is all... particle accelerators and hydrogen bombs. Science is giving yourself the plague and gambling on the cure.

Phoebe

Science is reckless.

Grooberson

TOTALLY! Yes. It's punk rock. It's a safety-pin through the nipple of academia.

Phoebe

Wouch!

Clip 8

Grooberson and Callie are getting close. A little too close for Phoebe's liking. But she can't express her repulsion at the idea of her mom getting it on with her teacher.

Podcast

I think Grooberson's trying to bone your mom.

Phoebe

Oh.

Podcast

That... doesn't bother you?

Phoebe

No, of course it bothers me. I just don't exhibit emotions the same way everyone else does. Inside... I'm vomiting.

Clip 9

It's Grooberson and Callie's first date. And what is the subject of their conversation? Their kids. Welcome to every date night ever, folks.

Grooberson

Well, hey... at least, uh... Phoebe turned out okay, right?

Callie

I hope so. I don't know. She... she really keeps me on the outside.

Grooberson

She's just an awkward, nerdy kid but she's awesome. I think she's great. I think you're great. You're a great mom. Yeah. You showed up. You win.

Callie

I just wish she'd relax, you know? Just get into some trouble.

Grooberson

Hey, there's plenty of time for that. Who knows... maybe she'll take up pole-dancing.

Callie

Well, she's not very coordinated.

Grooberson

Oh, I don't think that matters.

Clip 10

Trevor, Phoebe and Podcast are cruising the streets of downtown Summerville in Ecto-1 looking for signs of Muncher. And Podcast is understandably nervous.

Trevor

Can you stop breathing in my ear?

Podcast

No.

Clip 11

It's time for a team meeting. Lucky, Trevor, Phoebe and Podcast are sitting in the Spinners diner reviewing an ancient map of the area and something's not right.

Trevor

Okay so what exactly... is happening with the map?

Phoebe

Do you see the concentric circles around the mountain?

Trevor

Nnnn-no.

Phoebe

Do you see the circles?

Trevor

Yes.

Phoebe

Something's happening inside that old mine.

Trevor

Yeah, I know that. It's pretty... obvious.

Podcast

Right. So I did some digging on the word you heard in the mountain... Gozer?

Trevor

You did some digging?

Phoebe

Gozer was a Sumerian god who once walked amongst the living.

Podcast

A soul-eating, flame-dripping deity of evil. And they think it wants back.

Trevor

Here?

Podcast

I know. I'd have picked Orlando.

Clip 12

What's the best way to calm the nerves of those around you when you're descending into the bowels of the earth in a rickety miners' cage? Yeah. A joke, methinks.

Phoebe

So... what do a cigarette and a hamster have in common?

Lucky

What?

Phoebe

They're both completely harmless until you stick one in your mouth and light it on fire.

[PODCAST is the only one in the group to laugh at PHOEBE'S joke]

Clip 13

Never start a potential relationship with the girl of your dreams with a lie. Not one as big as your age, at least. Because that kind of thing has a habit of coming back to bite you.

Phoebe

Another hole?

Trevor

I wonder where this one leads to.

Podcast

A sacrificial death-pit.

Phoebe

What were they sacrificing?

Lucky

Virgins, probably.

[To TREVOR]

Tough luck for you, dude. Sorry.

Phoebe

Well, statistically, most fifteen-year-olds are virgins.

Trevor

Shhhhhhhhhh! Uh...

Lucky

Fifteen? You're fifteen?

Trevor

I'll be sixteen in February.

Lucky

It's June!
