don't need a blender.
- How about this...
this nice electric toothbrush?
I'll play you one game of Candyland
for this nice electric toothbrush.
No, thanks. Bye!
Uh, hi.
[Man]
Never saw her before. You?
No. She's not local.
Dresses kind of funny.
Big city, I think.
That's, uh... That's Freddy's niece,
isn't it, huh? She'll come around.
- Yeah, okay. See you later.
- She will. Talk to her, huh?
This town is going to the dogs.
Getting too uptown for my likings.
That's the Carter Family.
They're just plain weird.
[Barking]
[Horn Honking]
** [Radio Playing, Indistinct]
- Get in! Get in! It's an emergency!
- Where are we going?
- Pete called. The fish are biting. Come on!
- [Barking]

[Freddy]
Rides like butter, huh?
Uncle Freddy, don't people mind
you borrowing their cars?
I like to think of it
as more of a test drive.
All right, kids, we're here.
Everybody out.
Follow the leader
and watch your step.
For what?
Rattlesnakes and mine shafts.
And ghosts.
Right.
Hey, everybody knows
these woods are haunted.
Come on.
Nobody believes in ghosts.
[Freddy]
Everybody knows there's ghosts out here.
At night, you can hear them whistling
in the mine shaft.
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
[Beethoven Howls]
Uncle Freddy?
Hmm?
I think I'm gonna puke.
It's just chicken liver.
Look, it appeals to Beethoven.
Everything appeals to Beethoven,
even toilet water.
Whoa! I got a bite!
[Freddy]
All right.
- Reel it in.
- [Sara]
Is that a fish?
- Whoa.
- I think I've got a big one!
[Sara]
Come on.
Easy does it.
[Sara]
You've got it, Garrett!
Don't let it go!
All right. We got dinner tonight!
Look at that baby!
Look at that!
Ew! Ew! Get it away from me!
Is that a dandy or what?
There's no way I'm eating that!
- Whoa!
- Ew!
A genuine Gronas nigrilabris.
Translation, catfish.
I told you he was
the smartest kid in Quicksilver.
[Burbling]
[Screams]
Uncle Freddy, what is it?
[Beethoven Barking]
[Freddy]
Hey! It's Owen.
Kids, always give a frogman a hand.
[Owen Gasps]
How's the weather down there?
It's wet. Too wet.
Gosh, I never
would have guessed.
Is everyone in this town crazy?
[Together]
Not us!
Beethoven!
Come back, boy!
[Barking]
He's probably off chasing a rabbit.
Don't worry about it.
Or maybe he's chasing a ghost.
Yeah.
I'll believe it when I see it.
[Groaning]
[Barks, Murmurs]
[Garrett]
My grandfather saw the ghost
himself when he was a kid.
He and his buddies were camping
by the lake when they came right at them.
They left so fast, they forgot the tent.
And when they came back later,
it was all shredded up.
Oh, stop it, Garrett.
There's no such thing as ghosts.
You know, Sara, sometimes spirits get trapped
in this world and can't find their way out.
Scientists, with all their gobbledygook,
they just can't figure it out either.
[Rattling]
[Sara]
What was that?
[Freddy]
It's Beethoven! Come here!
Here, boy! Come here!
What's he got?
[Freddy]
Hey! You've got to love that dog.
He goes into the woods and
comes back with money!
Any more where that
came from, boy?
Can I keep it?
Yeah, I don't see why not. It looks old.
Hey, go get us all some more money.
[Giggling]
Yeah!
Buckets of it!
- Right?
- Yeah!
- Yeah!

[Water Running]
[Metal Clanking]
[Murmurs]
[Rattling]
[Groans]
[Knocking]
Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention.
The bathroom's upstairs.
Yeah, we heard.
Well, good night.
Don't let the bedbugs bite.
- Uh, Uncle Freddy?
- Yeah?
You don't really have bedbugs,
do you?
No. Not anymore.
Beethoven, this is gonna be
a long month.
So, I decided at that point
to give up on a career with the NBA.
And then I stopped eating for height
and started eating for pure girth.
[Sighs]
Give me the seven-eighths, would ya?
Oh, thanks.
[Murmurs]
You know, I think I'm gonna save
a lot of money on lubrication
with you around here.
[Tires Screeching]
[Barks]
Three, two, one...
[Siren Wails]
Right on
