"HELP!" This transcript needs to be finished!

	The episode opens with a shot of a busy highway before zooming to an alley between two buildings where a small glowing form can be seen hiding among a couple of boxes. A close-up reveals it's Dani in ghost form. After checking her surroundings she emerges from her hiding place
Dani	[Extremely weak.] Finally, I'm back. [Looks in window, and sees her reflection.] Uh-oh. Whoa, that's one scary ghost. I got to get to Danny fast. [Starts flying slowly.] Or slow, slow’s good. [Flies even slower. Sarcastically.] Or slower, even slower's better. [Stops flying. Feet start to dissolve.] Ahh! I just hope Danny can help me! [Reabsorbs feet.] I can't let him find me! Okay, pull yourself together Danielle. Vlad is all the way in Colorado. There's no way he can know you here. [Starts flying again.
	Camera zooms in to reveal a robotic bug on a telephone pole that looks a lot like Vlad, that flies after her,tracking. The scene then changes to inside Vlad's mansion where he's watching the events on his tv which is hooked up to his spy bug
Vlad	[Floating in his house, petting a cat.] Well, well, well. The return of the prodigal daughter. She's looked better, and yet she survived, the question is why? [Cat he is holding meows.] Oh, yes, I agree Maddie. It’s time for a little research. But she’s hardly going to come running home to daddy… [Maddie jumps out of his arms on to his desk and points to the button to call Valerie.] Oh, Maddie, you are so brilliant! yes, let’s call on daddy's little helper. [Vlad becomes human and calls Valerie.]
Valerie	[Comes in the window on her board.]
Vlad	Well, that certainly was fast. My, don't you look fancy.
Valerie	Got a few upgrades.
Vlad	Well, perhaps you'd be willing to upgrade your life as well. Wouldn't you like to finally move out of that rundown apartment?
Valerie	[Board disappears.] Mmm-hmm. What do you need, Mister Masters?
Vlad	A little bounty hunting.
Valerie	Hunting down ghost scum is what I'm all about. The target?
Vlad	Dani Phantom.
Valerie	Danny Phantom? That guy's been an intangible pain in my butt for a long time.
Vlad	Oh, no, sorry, my dear, not Danny Phantom. [Turns the computer monitor around for Valerie to see.] Dani Phantom, with an "I". A girl ghost.
Valerie	You’re kidding, there's a girl called Dani Phantom? Ha! These ghosts need to come up with more original names.
Vlad	Yes, well, this Dani Phantom is an incredibly evil, dangerous ghost out to destroy me.
Valerie	What's she got against you?
Vlad	Word must be out that I am hunting down ghosts. Once she brings me down who knows what kind of terror she will unleash on our fair city?
Valerie	There is no way I'm letting the ghost girl get you, Mr. Masters. She is as good as caught. [Starts typing on her tracker.]
Vlad	I knew I could count on you, Valerie.
Valerie	And I’m glad I can count on that new apartment!
	[Her board reappears. She lands on it and flies off through the window,leaving Vlad alone .]
Vlad	It will be so nice to get my little girl back. [He begins to laugh maniacally. Maddie meows loudly and angrily .] Oh, relax, Maddie. You’re still my favorite! [He scratches her chin]
	Theme Song.
	Valeria flies through the city on her hoverboard,slowing it as she looks into the window of their apartment room. Her father is fast asleep in an armchair with a book in his lap
Valerie	Daddy, when I catch this ghost girl, I promise to finally move us out of this crummy place! [Her tracker starts beeping] Hmm… Gotcha!
	Scene changes to a corner fruit stand where an employee is stocking the front with apples. Dani transforms back to girl form and is crouching down at one end of the wooden containers being filled with fresh apples to be sold and out of the view of the employee
Dani	If I wanna reach Danny, I’ve gotta keep up my strength!
	"Turns out both pockets of her shorts,showing that she doesn't have any money just as Valerie pulls up on her hoverboard."
Valerie	What’s going on?! The coordinates brought me right here, but that fruit guy’s not a ghost! And neither is that kid! [She fiddles with her tracker] What is up with this thing?!
Dani	I hate to do this, but…
	[She makes her hands intangible, then reaches into the apple stand to grab some apples]
Fruit Vendor	[He gasps and looks back at her, suspicious.] Alright, let me see your hands!! [Dani raises her arms, her sleeves empty as if she has no hands] Heey! Aaaah!
	Dani walks around the corner,into the alley,takes out the two apples she nabbed and bites into one
Valerie	Man! She’s good! I didn’t even see her pocket those! Poor kid… I know where she’s comin’ from… [Her trackers start going off. She gasps.]
	Dani drops the apples she had stole in shock at the sound and looks up terrorfied at Valerie's floating figure . Valerie moves her head left and right,looking for the ghost causing it
Valerie	Huh?! That ghost must be around here! Don’t worry, kid! I’m not gonna let some little ghost freak get ya! Hold on!
	Valerie goes into a dive,attempting to rescue the kid from the evil ghost lurking around the area. Dani,seeing this ghost hunter come towards her,runs into an abandoned building while Valerie follows on foot,having vanished her hoverboard in order to fit. As opens the door and runs inside,Daniella steps on a unstable wooden board causing a support beam which wakes into a roof beam. Dani runs behind a white clothed table just as Valerie enters,using a light on her helmet to see as she walks foward
Valerie	Listen, kid. I know you’re in here. And I know something evil is hunting you!
	Dani ducks further behind the cloth of the furniture as the light from Valerie's suit passes over it.
Dani	Yeah, no kidding!
Valerie	But I can protect you if you just trust me and come out!
	Valerie steps on the same piece of floorboard as Dani, however instead of causing the support beam to slam into the higher support,the beam falls down . Sand trickles down as the building begins falling apart.
Dani	Woah!
	Dani gets up and transforms into her ghost form as she rushes towards Valerie. She grabs Valerie before turning them both intangible just as two huge wooden planks fall where they were standing. The two fly through the wooden wall of the collapsing house,past a wooden sign with the words do not enter painted in red, and landing saftely outside. Valerie recoils from Dani,staring at her ghost form in shock.
Valerie	Huh? You’re—you’re a girl and a ghost?!
	Camera flicks back to Dani who's still laying on the ground and smiles slightly
Dani	And you’re welcome.
	Valerie stands, still shocked
Valerie	The ghost girl!
	Camera goes to Dani who stands up,offering the hand not on her hips for a handshake
Dani	Yeah, but you can just call me Dani!
Valerie	Oh, I will.
	Eyes narrow and she takes out a red, glowing instrument that traps Dani's hands together in it's red glow.
Valerie	Camera closes in on her face Dani Phantom!
	Camera moves to a close-up of Dani's terrorfied face
	Scene changes to the Fenton's lab where Jack and Maddie stare at something offscreen excitedly. Danny checks his watch,impatient to leave
Danny	Dad, I really gotta go. Sam and Tucker have been waiting for me for over half an hour to patrol—uh, Pa…troooclus! To do a report on Patroclus! A Greek warrior friend of Achilles.
Jack	Your math homework can wait, boy! Check out my newest invention! I call it Ecto-Dejecto!
	Jack holds up a giant needle with a green substance in it, name labled in white letters. Camera zooms in on his face
Jack	With one shot of this no-go juice, ghostly power shrivels up like a raisin in the sun.
	Camera closes up on a ghost that resembles a green blob of ectoplasm with narrowed,red eyes that's trapped in a glass container .
Jack	Take this little spooky stinker.
Jack	Jack inserts the needle into the body of the ghost and inserts Ecto-dejecto into it.
Jack	Yeah, he’s tiny. But terror comes in all sizes! Just hit it with some Ecto-Dejecto and watch it go from tiny to gone! Sayonara, spectral scum!
	The blob's eyebrows contract in a sad expression as it begins to shrink and melt into a puddle. However then it's eyes suddenly pop open and it begins expanding,flooding the small container.
Jack	Wait, are we shrinking?! No, no, no! Stop! Shields up!
	Danny,Maddie,and Jack raises their hands in front of them as the container breaks and pieces of glass fly.
Jack	Maddie, quick! The Wraith Wrangler!
Maddie	Got it!
Jack	Danny! Containment! I just don’t know why I just can’t get the kinks out of this one.
Danny	Um, any objections to me getting far, far away from here?
Maddie	Good idea, Danny! Best you avoid any unnecessary contamination!
Danny	Or embarrassment… Thanks!
Maddie	Maybe I just need a bigger needle.
Dani	Let me go!
Valerie	Not on your afterlife, ghost girl!
Dani	That’s what I’m afraid of… What are you going to do with me?!
Valerie	Me? I’m not doing anything with you. I’ve got you all bundled up for delivery to Vlad Masters.
Dani	You’re working for Vlad?! He’ll destroy me!
Valerie	Ha! That’s a good one! He told me the only reason you came out of the Ghost Zone was to destroy him!
Dani	What?! No! He’s lying!
Valerie	Vlad Masters is a good man! He has never lied to me!
Dani	Are you crazy?! Look at me. Do I look like I could destroy anything? Vlad is evil! And even though I knew he was hunting me, I chanced coming here because I’m dissolving into nothing! Only one person can help me: Danny Phantom.
Valerie	You know the ghost boy?!
Dani	Yes! Do you?
Valerie	Of course! Everybody in Amity Park knows of the amazing ghost hero Danny Phantom! But I’ve never had the honor of meeting him…
Dani	I’ll introduce you! Just set me free so I can see him!
Valerie	Oh, I’ll let you see him. For the last time…
Sam	A report on Patroclus? I’m impressed!
Danny	Thanks! I guess I really do absorb some things while I’m sleeping in class.
Tucker	Well, guys, I hate to say it, or maybe I’m glad to say it, but tonight’s ghost hunting scene is pretty much Dullsville. Unless, of course, you count the sudden appearance of Danny’s long lost ghost cousin.
Danny	What?! My cousin?
Dani	Whoa-aaaah! Danny!
Sam	Danny? That was your cousin, right?
Danny	I’ve got this one, guys!
Tucker	Did we just get blown off?
Sam	Pretty massively.
Tucker	Wanna pig out at Nasty Burger and put it on Danny’s tab?
Sam	Absolutely.
Danny	Danielle? Are you okay? You look awful. What happened to you? Last time I saw you, you flew off kinda dramatically.
Dani	You know how hard it is to fly off dramatically?! That plus our last battle with Vlad left me really wiped out. As much as I’ve tried to save my strength since then, I keep getting weaker! I needed your help to see if you can make me stay whole! But as soon as I got into town, Vlad came after me!
Danny	He’s not gonna touch you, Dani. Come on, I’ll protect you.
Valerie	I knew you’d take the bait, Phantom!
Danny	Bait?! Was this a trap?!
Dani	No! No! I would never do that! She saw me go ghost and she was gonna turn me over to Vlad until I told her I knew you!
Valerie	It’s true, Danny. The little ecto-brat had no idea I was using her to get to you!
Dani	You what?!
Valerie	And she actually believed that I wanted the honor of meeting Danny Phantom! When I really just wanted the honor of destroying you!
Dani	You—you tricked me!
Valerie	[laughs] Now that’s two Danny Phantoms for the price of one!
	Commercial break
Valerie	I finally got you where I want you. Now, I want answers, Phantom.
Danny	You’re not getting anything until you tell me what you did with Dani!
Valerie	Oh, she’s getting what’s coming to her.
Danny	Just tell me you didn’t hand her over to Vlad!
Valerie	Well, that would be a lie, now, wouldn’t it?
Danny	You didn’t seem to have any trouble lying to Dani! Listen, I know that we’ve had our issues, and clearly, you’re not big on forgiveness. But Dani doesn’t have anything to do with you hating me!
Valerie	I don’t hate you, Danny. It’s because of you that I’m the most powerful ghost hunter in Amity Park.
Danny	Hey! What about the Fentons?!
Valerie	Are you kidding?! They couldn’t catch a ghost if it was living under their own roof!
Danny	True.
Valerie	But knowledge is power. And with your knowledge, I’ll be able to rid Amity Park of its constant ghost invasions forever!
Danny	So you want information.
Valerie	Everything you’ve got. On the ghost portals, the ghost zone…
Danny	And what if I don’t feel like talking?
Valerie	Then I’ll need to find ways to persuade you!
Dani	What is it with you and examination tables?! Whoa!
Vlad	Now, now, my dear, if you continue to struggle, there’ll be nothing left of you to dissect.
Dani	Don’t touch me!
Vlad	Eww… Structural density?
Maddie program	Fifty-three percent, dumpling. Eighty-percent, sweetums. Oh! Love the cologne you’re wearing!
Vlad	Ectoplasmic energy readings?
Maddie program	Unstable, cupcake.
Vlad	Clearly she is only mildly more sound than the other clones! The question is, why did she last longer than the rest?
Dani	Please tell me you’ve been working on something to stabilize me.
Vlad	Oh, no, my child. I’ve had far more important matters to tend to. My Maddie upgrade, for instance. Right, dear?
Maddie program	Anything you say, my brilliant and ingenious lambchop. I love what you’ve done with your fangs!
Vlad	Well, Danielle, it seems the only way I’ll be able to make a perfect clone is to melt you down and study your ectoplasmic remains.
Danny	Valerie! You don’t want to do this!
Valerie	No, you don’t want me to do this!
Danny	Well, yeah! [She shocks him] Aaaaaaah, stop! I’ll tell you about the portals! I’ll give you a map to the Ghost Zone, you can become the hero ghost hunter of Amity Park! But first, you need to let me go, and we need to save Danielle!
Valerie	Why? Because she’s one of your kind, a ghost?
Danny	No, because she’s one of yours, a human! She’s not just a ghost. She’s also a girl.
Valerie	But Vlad said the ghost side of her was out to get him and Amity Park.
Danny	Valerie, you saw her! Did Dani really look like she could destroy anything?
Valerie	Funny… She asked me the same thing.
Danny	Look, the facts are, Danielle’s ghost half is unstable. Vlad is out to destroy her. And if he destroys the ghost half, the human half is destroyed with it!
Valerie	No… That’s not my problem! She is a ghost. And I destroy ghosts!
Danny	Fine! Destroy ghosts! But can you really take part in destroying a human?
Valerie	What makes you think the Fentons would have anything to help Dani? They are ghost hunters, not ghost helpers.
Danny	Yes, and no. My da—Jack Fenton tends to be a little of both. For the sake of all ghosts, I keep my eye on these guys and have a pretty good idea of what they’re up to.
Valerie	You don’t think it’s a little dangerous flying into the lab of a family of ghost hunters?
Danny	Something tells me we’ll be okay.
Jack	Heh, heh, hey! Am I good or what?
Maddie program	Intruder alert, dearest heart.
Dani	Danny!
Vlad	Phantom! Ah! What a nuisance! Well, this is an inconvenience at best. Can’t go letting her discover the truth, now, can we? [He splits in two, with one Vlad remaining as Plasmius and one changing back to his human form]
Plasmius	Time to assume my role in our little production. I’ll go welcome our guests. And I’m sorry, dear. But I can’t have them see you, either.
Maddie program	See you tonight for tea and cookies!
Plasmius	And until then, there’s work to be done!
Dani	Danny! Heeeelp!
Danny	Dani?
Valerie	It came from in there!
Plasmius	Haha!
Danny	I don’t want to fight you, Vlad. I just want to save Danielle.
Plasmius	Sorry, not on my watch. [Danny is hit into a bookcase and changes back to human form. Valerie flies at Plasmius, but he goes intangible, causing her to fly through him] Feeling super in our souped-up suit, are we?
Valerie	Actually, yeah!
Plasmius	Not bad, but do you really think you can trap me, girl?
Valerie	I think I just did. [Plasmius phases into the wall behind him] What the?!
Plasmius	Breaking up is hard to do, unless you have a button that does this!
Valerie	No!
Dani	Aaah! Dannyyyy!
Danny	Danielle! Oh, no. Valerie. Did she see me change?
Dani	Heeeelp!
Danny	Well, no time to worry about that now. [He goes ghost]
Dani	Danny!!
Danny	Valerie! Why were you standing around?
Vlad Masters	Help! That horrible ghost trapped me and he’s going to destroy the girl!
Valerie	Vlad?
Danny	Hello? Vlad’s right in front of you!
Valerie	Not him, Vlad Masters! This is his mansion!
Vlad Masters	As the sweet, caring, good-natured man that I am, I beg you, don’t let him do it!
Valerie	Ha! Told you he was a good dude! What are you doing to her?! Stop it, now!
Plasmius	It’s going to take more than your little plasma ray for you to cut those ties, Daniel.
Danny	I can’t break them, Danielle. There’s only one more thing to try. Feeling brave?
Dani	A little weak in the knees, actually. And I don’t even have knees anymore!
Danny	Well, then, I hope my dad didn’t mend this Achilles’s heel!
Dani	I… think it’s too late… Bye, Danny… Thanks for…
Danny	Oh, no! No!! No! Dani… I… I failed you… I’m so sorry.
Dani	Danny? What’s the trouble?
Danny	Huh? Hey!
Dani	Ha! I’m me again! I knew you wouldn’t let me down!
Valerie	A little help here?!
Dani	With pleasure! I never got to thank you for the homecoming!
Plasmius	Ha! You missed me!
Dani	Guess that’ll teach him to pick on a defenseless girl!
Valerie	There’s no such thing.
Danny	Get Danielle out of here, Valerie. I’ll be right behind you. Man, you really know how to work the system, don’t you?
Vlad	It’s my specialty.
Danny	Now Valerie blames Vlad Plasmius for trying to destroy Dani, leaving Vlad Masters in the clear. If only she knew you were one and the same.
Vlad	Well, you could tell her. But I’m afraid I would have to counter your slanderous accusations by revealing your little secret.
Danny	Don’t come near her again! [he flies off] Dani, that was awesome! Dani? Valerie, where’s Dani?
Dani	Boo!
Danny	Ha, ha. Very funny.
Dani	Thank you both! Vlad would’ve baked me into a puddle of nothing if you hadn’t saved me!
Danny	That’s what family’s for, cuz! So, uh, now what? Heading off?
Dani	Yep! Now that this Phantom is fixed, she’s got places to go.
Danny	Well, just be safe, okay?
Dani	Aw, Danny, nothing can hurt me now! [She kisses his cheek] And thanks, Valerie!
Valerie	What’s that for?
Danny	Deal’s a deal. You helped me save Dani, you may now have me back as your captive.
Valerie	Forget it.
Danny	What?
Valerie	Fly away, ghost boy. Before I change my mind.
Danny	All right! I’m going! [She blasts him in the backside] Ow! What in--
Valerie	But don’t think this is gonna last! Tomorrow, it’s game on!
Danny	And I’ll be ready to play!
Valerie	I told him Vlad was a good guy. Mr. Masters! I forgot about him! Mayor Masters? Are you okay? Mayor Masters?
Vlad	Disappeared! We were so close, if only we’d managed to melt that little brat down!
Valerie	Is that Plasmius?
Vlad	And who knew Valerie would be so easy to fool? “Trapping” me in the closet. [He changes into his ghost form] Oh, ingenious! For a smart girl, she’s very easily led.
Valerie	Vlad Masters is Vlad Plasmius?! Phantom was right all along! And all this time I’ve been doing all his dirty work! Well, not anymore. Better watch out, Vlad… ‘cause one of the ghosts I’m hunting now is you!
Jack	Hello? [He clears his throat] A little help here? I have to go to the bathroom!
	End.
