Hotel Transylvania 2: Making the Hotel safe
Dracula and Mavis were walking downtown in the broad daylight, wearing heavy sunscreen, sunglasses, and Mavis wore a wide brimmed sun hat and Dracula wore a wide umbrella on his head. The two of them had gone into town for some quality time with their still none vampire children, Melany and Dennis, and came to a place called Kidboree! A children's activities center. Dracula momentarily looked at the colorful and whimsical looking sign as Melany took his hands and pulled him inside.
For starters, Dracula joined Mavis and some other moms in playing with their children, especially Dennis and Melany, as they ran around and the parents flapped over them a rainbow sheet. At first, Dracula had a frown of doubt like 'this is supposed to be fun?' or 'this is nuts.' Really unsure of what this was supposed to do for the kids, but he gave a pleasant grin as Mavis looked at him and he tried to enjoy himself.
The kids, including Dennis and Melany, got to do more interesting things, like holding and learning about small animals at a wildlife center, like a guinea pig or iguana, for which Dracula started to take thorough notes in order to use those ideas to make his hotel a safer place for his youngest daughter and grandson to live in, and to convince Mavis and his father-in-law that the hotel is a safe place.
The next fun activity was 'rock climbing' up a small child friendly three foot 'mountain' with a rope. Melany helped Dennis get to the top, everybody clapped for the two children working together. Dracula took down more notes, while Mavis chuckled and applauded.
The children then played musical instruments with other kids, really just making fun noise. Dennis played a flute while Melany played a piano board. Dracula wrote down more notes in a notebook while the other moms, including Mavis, around him were occupied with their cell phones.
Next they took the children swimming in a large indoor Olympic pool, and the children had to wear floaties, goggles, fins, and a kickboard. They were great swimmers, little Melany was only slightly better than Dennis. Dracula was certain his daughter got it from his side of the family.
Afterward, they took a kids yoga class together as Mavis and Dracula pretended that Dennis and Melany were flying while perched on their feet. Although Dracula had some fun with his little girl, he found it pointless as these kids will be flying on their own soon enough. When he was done playing his youngest daughter, he took down more notes.
Back at the hotel, Dracula cheerfully showed his notes to Johnny as they left Kidboree that evening when the sun went down. At first, Johnny looked unsure but still gave Dracula thumbs up, trying to be encouraging. Dracula wanted to recreate these activities at the hotel for his youngest daughter and grandson, and most were easy enough.
First off, Dracula bought one of his own rainbow tarps and had a yeti friend flap it up and down for Melany and Dennis, while Mavis and Elisa were watching the fun as the children giggled and played. Dracula and Johnny watched proudly. It was going great, until the yeti had to sneeze and absentmindedly used the tarp as a tissue, and the kids became trapped inside and covered in yeti boogers. Mavis's eyes widened in shock, as did Elisa before she gave a look of disgust at the yeti.
The children got cleaned up soon after, and Dracula wanted them to learn about share petting with small animals like a little white bunny rabbit he found in the haunted forest. The rabbit was passed around by other monster children, a little gremlin girl passed it to Melany, who then passed it to Dennis, and he then passed it to Wayne, who was there to supervise his own unruly litters. But then he impulsively ate up the poor rabbit, shocking both children. Dracula quickly opened the werewolf's mouth and pulled the rabbit out, now covered in drool, and the vampire laughed nervously at his glaring daughter and wife.
Dracula wanted to show them the new kids' yoga room, but when his family saw what was inside, it was an archaic stretch table with a Gillman kid being stretched out and a yeti kid gave them a thumbs-up. Mavis quickly picked up Dennis in apprehension and ran away, while Elisa looked frightened, knowing her husband meant well, but even she found this a little macabre so she took Melany away.
Afterward, the two kids got to go climbing again, this time on the spikes of a not too big stegosaurus-like monster with large spike plates on his back and tail. This time, Dennis helped Melany up the gentle creature, but as a chubby monster kid grabbed hold of one of its large plates, it came loose and the area started spewing a sickly green sticky substance, making the poor creature run away as it got Melany, Dennis, and other monster kids stuck to the walls, while the wolf pups just licked at it happily.
Melany, Dennis, and the monster kids started banging playfully at their kiddie instruments, but they were all playing the Bingo song, conducted by the Phantom of the Opera, their teacher. Dracula smiled in relief as things finally seemed to be going smoothly. Elisa stood beside him with a calm smile. But the old gremlin lady suddenly ate Dennis and Melany's toy instruments, and said her catchphrase "I didn't do that" at the confused children. An irked Dracula face palmed, while Elisa's jaw dropped in shock.
They decided to go swimming at the hotel pool, and once again, Dracula had the children wear their floaties and goggles. Dracula gently placed Dennis first and then Melany into the pool to let them swim freely around, but all of a sudden they were swallowed up by a young sea serpent. Horrified, Dracula quickly dived in and wrestled the sea serpent to the surface and punched him in his single eye to get him to open his mouth. The sea serpent opened it's large mouth and stuck it's tongue out. Melany, Dennis, and two scared human children were sitting on his tongue. The sea serpent's mother appeared and berated him for misbehaving and playing too rough with the other kids.
The cheerful Dennis and Melany waved to their parents as they dove back into the water with the other kids. However, Mavis looked as though she was going to have a mental breakdown as she squeezed her lemonade glass too tightly and it shattered, while Johnny smiled sheepishly. Monica looked on with gawking mouth. Andrei shot a disapproving scowl at his daughter as Elisa chuckled awkwardly.
