1 00:00:12,005 --> 00:00:29,839 "This is going to be the best field trip ever!" Ben said. 2 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,839 He was sitting next to Winnie on the school bus. 3 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,443 "I guess it will be interesting," Winnie murmured. 4 00:00:37,444 --> 00:00:41,193 "I've never been to People Place before. 5 00:00:41,194 --> 00:00:45,993 My parents say that many people don't like witches. 6 00:00:45,994 --> 00:00:48,839 Or any kind of monsters." 7 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,313 Ben knew Winnie was very nervous. 8 00:00:52,314 --> 00:00:57,014 Other students on the school bus seemed nervous too. 9 00:00:57,015 --> 00:01:02,356 So did Miss Bungle, the broom-flying teacher, and Mr. Freaky. 10 00:01:02,357 --> 00:01:09,124 The principal was running up and down the bus aisle, warning everybody to behave. 11 00:01:09,125 --> 00:01:13,553 "Remember, students, this field trip is very important. 12 00:01:13,554 --> 00:01:17,570 We're going to be camping overnight at the People Place Museum. 13 00:01:17,571 --> 00:01:19,682 And you know what Mayor Hubbletree said. 14 00:01:19,683 --> 00:01:27,302 If monsters create any problems, he's going to consider tearing down Monster Academy again." 15 00:01:27,303 --> 00:01:37,629 "No problem, Mr. Freaky," Mog said, blowing a slime ball at a skeleton. 16 00:01:37,630 --> 00:01:42,496 "You know me—I always behave." 17 00:01:42,497 --> 00:01:45,093 "Don't worry, Winnie," Ben said. 18 00:01:45,094 --> 00:01:48,950 "People are just like monsters. They only look strange." 19 00:01:48,951 --> 00:01:52,224 Winnie laughed. "I guess you're right. 20 00:01:52,225 --> 00:01:59,009 Everything went well when the people came to Monster Academy. 21 00:01:59,010 --> 00:02:02,694 And Jen is dating a person." 22 00:02:02,695 --> 00:02:07,336 "Yep," said Ben. "Jen is still dating Dave." 23 00:02:07,337 --> 00:02:10,787 Mr. Freaky was wringing his hands. 24 00:02:10,788 --> 00:02:14,309 His three noses wiggled like mad. 25 00:02:14,310 --> 00:02:18,463 "Students, Miss Bungle is going to start collecting permission slips. 26 00:02:18,464 --> 00:02:28,068 Please have yours ready—along with your monster manners and best behavior." 27 00:02:28,069 --> 00:02:33,599 "Permission slip, please," Miss Bungle said to a three-eyed monster. 28 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,297 The monster handed her the slip of paper. 29 00:02:36,298 --> 00:02:41,013 Miss Bungle took it and then moved to the monsters in the next seat. 30 00:02:41,014 --> 00:02:46,213 "I hope that you all remembered to pack food in your lunchboxes," Mr. Freaky said. 31 00:02:46,214 --> 00:02:49,101 "We'll be eating dinner at the museum." 32 00:02:49,102 --> 00:02:51,631 "I remembered," said a goblin. 33 00:02:51,632 --> 00:02:57,712 "I brought my own food because people eat weird stuff. Here's my lunchbox." 34 00:02:57,713 --> 00:03:02,142 He held up a big metal pail filled with slime. 35 00:03:02,143 --> 00:03:05,493 "Uh-oh," said an octopus monster. 36 00:03:05,494 --> 00:03:08,819 "I probably didn't bring enough food." 37 00:03:08,820 --> 00:03:13,067 She gazed sadly at the two barrels of fish beside her. 38 00:03:13,068 --> 00:03:15,783 "That's okay," said a ghoul. 39 00:03:15,784 --> 00:03:21,913 "I brought enough dead rats for everyone!" 40 00:03:21,914 --> 00:03:28,107 "Did everyone bring a sleeping bag—or whatever you sleep in?" asked Mr. Freaky. 41 00:03:28,108 --> 00:03:34,643 "I brought my camping coffin," said a vampire. 42 00:03:34,644 --> 00:03:39,537 "I packed my portable pyramid," said a mummy girl named Cleo. 43 00:03:39,538 --> 00:03:44,266 Waldo, who was sitting across from Cleo, grinned at her. 44 00:03:44,267 --> 00:03:51,121 But Ben saw Gaby, sitting on the other side of Waldo, frown. 45 00:03:51,122 --> 00:03:57,006 "Waldo and Cleo have been spending a lot of time together," Ben whispered to Winnie. 46 00:03:57,007 --> 00:04:00,065 "I think Gaby's a little jealous." 47 00:04:00,066 --> 00:04:07,422 "Waldo told me Cleo is helping him learn Egyptian magic," Winnie replied. 48 00:04:07,423 --> 00:04:16,973 "That's cool," Ben said. "I hope we'll see some stuff from Egypt in the museum." 49 00:04:16,974 --> 00:04:23,889 "Mr. Freaky, I have all the permission slips," Miss Bungle announced a few minutes later. 50 00:04:23,890 --> 00:04:33,442 "Then I guess we're ready to go." Mr. Freaky loosened his tie and swallowed hard. 51 00:04:33,443 --> 00:04:35,971 The driver turned the ignition key. 52 00:04:35,972 --> 00:04:45,058 A shriek came from the engine, followed by some coughing sounds and black smoke. 53 00:04:45,059 --> 00:04:50,378 "We're off!" Ben said. 54 00:04:50,379 --> 00:04:57,448 The monsters laughed and talked as the bus drove through the familiar streets of Monsterville. 55 00:04:57,449 --> 00:05:05,983 The kids played games, and the doppelgangers changed shape a bunch of times to amuse everybody. 56 00:05:05,984 --> 00:05:12,885 But the laughter faded as the bus approached the wall that separated Monsterville from People Place. 57 00:05:12,886 --> 00:05:16,961 "Now, don't worry, students!" Mr. Freaky called out. 58 00:05:16,962 --> 00:05:20,311 "Remember, we have permission to visit People Place. 59 00:05:20,312 --> 00:05:27,483 And we are Mayor Hubbletree's special guests!" 60 00:05:27,484 --> 00:05:40,580 All the monsters—even the zombies—held their breath as the bus slowly traveled through the gate in the wall. 61 00:05:40,581 --> 00:05:45,428 "Whoa! It's so bright here!" moaned a ghoul. 62 00:05:45,429 --> 00:05:51,309 "Yeah," said a vampire. "Is it always this sunny?" 63 00:05:51,310 --> 00:05:55,048 "It's a little creepy," said a skeleton. 64 00:05:55,049 --> 00:05:58,718 "Do I look like a person now?" asked Carly. 65 00:05:58,719 --> 00:06:02,774 She had changed her face to try to imitate a person. 66 00:06:02,775 --> 00:06:06,155 But her nose and eyes were in the wrong places. 67 00:06:06,156 --> 00:06:11,504 Everyone laughed uneasily. 68 00:06:11,505 --> 00:06:19,087 Ben saw Winnie sit up straight and clutch her broom. He squeezed her hand. 69 00:06:19,088 --> 00:06:21,450 "Don't worry," he reassured her. 70 00:06:21,451 --> 00:06:26,177 "This trip will be a blast. We'll see cool stuff and have fun." 71 00:06:26,178 --> 00:06:34,547 Winnie nodded. The broomstick was shaking in her hand. 72 00:06:34,548 --> 00:06:42,616 "We're almost at the museum," announced Mr. Freaky a minute later. 73 00:06:42,617 --> 00:06:48,283 The bus drove past a huge building with two large stone lions out front. 74 00:06:48,284 --> 00:06:50,548 "It's the museum!" Gaby said. 75 00:06:50,549 --> 00:06:54,387 "Cool. The building looks pretty old." 76 00:06:54,388 --> 00:06:59,614 "Yeah! Like a beautiful crypt," said a vampire. 77 00:06:59,615 --> 00:07:02,250 Ben waited for the bus to stop. 78 00:07:02,251 --> 00:07:08,348 Instead it pulled around to a lot in the back of the building. 79 00:07:08,349 --> 00:07:12,037 Mr. Freaky sprang out of his seat. 80 00:07:12,038 --> 00:07:14,465 "Here we are!" he called. 81 00:07:14,466 --> 00:07:25,824 "Our field trip in People Place is about to begin!"
