Stay still, would you?
Ugh, can't you, like, flee in terror?
I'm supposed to be evil.
Look, your evaporation skills are cool and all,
but I'm pretty wiped.
Gift wrap ya' all nice for S.H.I.E.L.D. to come get ya'.
Get in for a pic, MG!
These action shots will look fantastico on the website.
Abyss, look menacing, but ultimately redeemable.
Vámonos!
I will get you for this, Moon Girl.
Whoo! Heh, I am so ready to just go home
and curl up with the biography of Nobel-winning chemist
- Frances Arnold! - How is that restful?
Oh, you know, it has pictures!
Of biomolecules.
Good news, our 11 a.m. cancelled,
so you can totally chill at home
for a very rejuvenating 23 minutes.
Then, it's off to your all-day photo shoot.
Another photo shoot?
Yeah, we really need to update your shots
for the website. Is that okay?
Oh! Oh. Yeah, yeah yeah.
I love me a photo--
Shoot!
Oh, no!
Are you hurt? Because I can
clear your schedule if you are.
Mmm... yea-- yes!
Ow! Yes, I'm hurt!
Oh, my ankle! It hurts so bad!
Oh, pobrecita. Let's get you home!
Yo! First-responder! We need a ride, stat!
What is going on?
Lu twisted her ankle after fighting...
the good fight.
A twisted ankle?
It doesn't look bad.
But you have been running yourself ragged lately,
so you probably should get some rest.
And if you need anything, all you have to do is ask.
A cookie? Oh, you meant her.
Thank you, Mimi.
Okay, you stay in bed, now.
Sorry to miss the photo shoot, Case.
Nope, nope. Do not think about it.
You take care of you, boo.
I'll just tell Jean-Michelangelo we need to cancel.
Oh, and call off the 2,000 doves I ordered.
And the Parisian stilt-walkers.
Jean-Michelangelo, Ms. Goldberg-Calderon here.
Uh, look, there's no easy way to say this,
but we need to-- c-- ca--
No! No!
We're not-- We're not cancelling.
I thought we just went over this. You need to rest.
Also, please never touch my phone again.
But what if, you know, Lunella rests
while Moon Girl goes to the photo shoot?
You've finally finished that cloning device?
Mazel tov!
Yeah, honey, not quite.
I just had something else in mind.
Casey Maria Eva Duarte Goldberg-Calderon,
you are going to the photo shoot as Moon Girl!
- Yay! - What?!
Here they are.
And bonus: you get to beta-test
my new prototype helmet and suit.
This lid will cover your whole face.
And the suit's spandex is extra sweat-wicking,
and you know, girl, you look good in yellow!
Like literal sunshine, but just FYI:
all the jumpy-fighty superhero stuff you do
is way out of my comfort zone.
Yeah, but it's a photoshoot!
So, no jumpy-fighty stuff necessary.
And this way, you get your amazing shots
for the website. Now, go Moon Girl it up!
♪ Finally gonna get a break! ♪
Aah!
Okay, so maybe my ankle isn't twisted.
But D, I am beat, all right? I just-- I need a minute!
And I don't wanna let Casey down,
so this way, we both win, right?
Just-- Just help her out, won't ya?
Thanks, D. And you two will be fine.
Ta-da! Question mark?
All right. I mean, as a certain
PR maven/personal stylist once told me:
You wear the suit.
Don't let the suit wear you.
My own brilliance used against me.
Yes!
Uh...
User error, sorry!
Yeah, I should disable that. I'll be back in a jiff.
Sounds great. I'm super pumped! Loving this whole thing.
I'm hating this whole thing! I don't want to do this!
But she's hurt
and can't do her Moon Girl thing,
so I gotta step up on my end. Gotta carry my own weight.
I can't let her down, D.
Just help me out, won't ya?
I was gonna set it to "stun,"
but I then thought, "Why stun when you can dazzle?"
Ooh!
So you ready? We cool?
So ready! So cool!
Okay, Big Red. Vámonos!
Whoa! Ah!
JEAN-MICHAELANGELO: Red friend.
Look up. Higher! Gorgeous.
Now, be fierce. Both of you.
Run through jungle! Magnifique, I love it!
We are crushing this!
And Devil, you really know how to work your angles!
Ow, ow!
Hoo-hoo!
What was I so worried about?
Superhero-ing is a cat-walk in the park!
Ooh! Let's get a pint of ice cream
and bring it back to Lunella.
She can ice her ankle with it until it's melty enough to eat!
So everybody wins!
Yo, Moon Girl!
Can I get a autograph?
Of course!
Forgot my name for a quick sec.
Crazy, heh.
- I know Lu-- - Can we take a photo with you?
- Really wanted us to-- - Can I have your autograph?
- Get home as soon as-- - Can we take a photo with you?
- We could, so let's go down-- - Please kiss my baby.
Can we take a photo with you?
Signatures!
Can we take a photo with you?
Uh, what was I saying?
I think I might be getting... sick of attention?
Can that be right? How do you handle everyone
staring at you all the time? Like, like-- What?!
Ah, haha. Hi. What can I help you with, sweet child?
Can you please untangle my yo-yo?
Moon Girl to the rescue.
Ow! Ow! Ow!
Mimi!
Ring it again. I dare you.
Do we have any--
Ginger ale?
- How did-- - I know my baby.
Aha!
Explain.
Help! Help! Oh, Fiddlesticks!
My poor kitty Fiddlesticks is stuck in a tree!
Ain't ya gonna help her, Moon Girl?
I'm really more of a dog person.
But yes, of course.
Moon Girl can't let her adoring public down.
I just gotta... Heh... If I...
That was, uh, part of...
Under control, heh!
Aah! Whoa! Hey! Whoa! Oh! Aah!
Psst! Psst! Uh...
Beyonder here. Just a reminder,
we've seen that cape before.
Abyss is a fifth-generation supervillain.
Her mom was Abyss, her grandma was Abyss,
her great-grandma... you get the idea.
She doesn't super love being a supervillain,
but with a family like that, what choice do you have?
She's got an image to keep up,
and after Moon Girl defeated her,
she's ready for revenge.
You stay and watch, I'll go get popcorn.
Come here, kitty, kitty!
Help a girl out, will ya?
Whoa...
Ha! It was a trap!
You humiliated me, Moon Girl,
so now I'm gonna make you look super dumb.
Me?! Uh, but I--
Whoa!
Hurry, Devil! Eek!
Devil, Moon Girl's gotta fight!
People can't see her-slash-me run away!
Come back and be scared of me!
I'm trying! Devil, in the name of brand management,
put me down!
Ha-ha!
She can evaporate?! Is that new? I don't love it.
Devil, don't you dare call Lunella...
Calling Lunella.
...when she's supposed to be resting!
And that explains
how Frances Arnold won the Nobel Prize for her use
of directed evolution to engineer new enzymes!
Little girl, when I said "explain,"
I meant why you lied about your ankle.
But you knew that.
Fine. (groans) I was supposed to do this thing with Casey,
but I've just been so tired between school and the rink
and studying and, uh, extracurriculars,
that I feel like I'm gonna snap!
So... I lied.
You lied because you needed a break?
I'm sorry. And I know you're mad.
I know it's hard, but it's important for you
to tell people what you need.
Not enough girls feel like they can do that.
I know I didn't when I was your age.
- You didn't? - Goodness, no!
I wanted to please everybody.
And asking for what I needed felt like I was being a burden
I feel so seen.
But telling the people that love you what you need
doesn't hurt them. They want to support you,
and they can't do that if you don't tell them how.
Unless you've built a mind-reading device
I don't know about. Have you?
♪ I'm going out my mind ♪
Eh, it doesn't work.
So, I guess I'll just have to work on being honest
with the people I love. Thanks, Mimi.
This talk is just what I needed.
Anytime.
And if there's ever anything else
you need to talk to me about - anything at all -
you can be honest with me. I'm ready to hear it.
♪ Moon Girl Magic! ♪
Okay...
- Lunella! - Aah! Casey?
You are in big trouble in Little Italy, hermano.
I refuse to believe this is for my own good!
D? What's goin' on? Where's Casey?
Abyss? At San Gennaro?
Okay, all right, all right, I'm on my way!
Mimi! There's something I need!
Ugh. Fine.
I'll just have to make you come out...
Moon Girl.
Oh, Moon Girl!
I'm causing trouble and making you look bad!
Let me go!
Moon Girl has to help!
Her reputation is at stake!
Instantly regretting this decision.
Where to, baby?
Little Italy. And step on it.
Casey really needs help... with a school project.
Come on, ol' girl, don't give out on me now.
- Here we go! - Aah!
Watch out!
Jump on three!
- What?! - And... three!
Uh... I think we're off track.
Ha! Are we?
Uh, here's good!
- Thanks, Mimi! - Anytime, baby.
Good luck with that project!
Moon... Girl... magic!
I'm coming, Casey!
Aah!
Ow! The bitter pain of karmic justice!
Whoa!
Freeze!
Huh?
Yeah, that hurt!
How did you get there? Did you evaporate?
That's my thing! Don't steal my thing!
Oh. There are two of you now.
You should be in bed. Devil and I got this!
I don't got this! Please save me!
Are you okay?
Not totally. But I'm ready to tell you
what I need to be okay.
First, I need you to duck!
Left!
Right!
- I need you to drop me! - Okay!
Whoo! Yeah, yeah, yeah!
We did it!
Was that some serious BFF action, or what?
Right?! Yo, I was all, "Do this!"
- Yeah, you were! - And you were like,
"On it! Pa-chow!"
Pa-chow!
Seriously, Casey, thank you so much for your help.
Nah, chica. Thank you. If I hadn't messed up today,
you wouldn't have needed to come save me.
No, no, no. If I hadn't faked being hurt,
you wouldn't have had to be Moon Girl
- in the first place. - Wait. What?
You're not really hurt?
Well, now, I am, sure.
But I wasn't this morning. I... I lied.
Oh...
Is this how my dads feel when they say,
"I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed?"
Yeah. I'm sorry.
I needed a day off, but I was so scared of letting you down.
I mean, you put so much work into organizing that photoshoot.
I know how important it was.
Yeah, it was important, but not as important as you.
And I know, I get it. I mean, I really get it now.
Being Moon Girl is relentless.
You've gotta take breaks sometimes.
- Oh! - Mm.
You know, I never learned to ask for what I need.
I don't even like being evil.
Maybe... Maybe if I told people what I wanted--
You're my best friend. I don't even care
that this suit smells like garbage!
Why does the suit smell like garbage?
I'll tell you later.
Uh... that's not great.
Hey, Mom? It's Abyss.
Uh, I've decided
to get out of the whole "supervillain" thing,
and-- and I-- and I'm asking you for help.
Here's what I need.
Oh, wow. I actually think she's gonna be okay.
And if she comes back, and you need help--
I will def ask for it.
But now, here's what I think we all need...
So, this is what downtime feels like.
I could get used to this.
Yeah! No superhero-ing,
no photoshoots, no social media--
That didn't count, it was my personal account!
- We're just kids tonight, Case. - Yeah.
But that phone better be real clean
when you give it back to me.
