0:00 The very first sound was a quiet… wobble-wobble.0:04 It wasn't a spooky creak coming from the closet — we solved that closet mystery last week, remember?0:14 This was different.0:15 This was coming from UNDER the bed.0:19 Lily’s eyes popped open.0:21 The only light in her room was a thin silver slice of moonbeam, painting a stripe across her rug.0:30 Everything was still.0:32 Everything was quiet.0:34 Maybe she dreamed it.0:36 She snuggled deeper under her dinosaur blanket, ready to drift back to sleep.0:43 Wobble… wobble… THUMP.0:46 Okay.0:46 Definitely not a dream.0:48 Lily’s heart started to beat a little faster.0:52 A thump-thump-thump that matched the wobble-wobble-thump.0:58 What in the world makes a wobble-wobble sound?1:02 A monster made of jelly?1:04 A nervous goblin who forgot his homework?1:08 A space alien whose spaceship ran out of gas right under her bed?1:15 The possibilities were… interesting.1:18 And also a little bit scary.1:21 She pulled the covers up to her nose.1:24 Only her eyes peeked out.1:26 The darkness under the bed seemed… darker than usual.1:32 It seemed bigger.1:33 The wobble-wobble sound had stopped.1:37 Maybe it went away?1:38 WOBBLE.1:39 It was louder this time!1:41 Closer.1:42 Lily squeezed her eyes shut.1:45 She could call for Mom.1:47 She could shout for Dad.1:49 They would come running.1:51 They would turn on the lights and check with a flashlight and tell her nothing was there.2:00 But… what if something WAS there?2:03 Not a scary something.2:05 But a something that needed help?2:08 She thought about how brave she was with the closet.2:13 She could be brave again.2:15 Okay.2:16 Operation Under-the-Bed is a GO.2:19 Slowly, sooooo slowly, she pushed back the covers.2:24 The air in the room was cool on her pajamas.2:28 One foot on the floor.2:30 Then the other.2:31 The wood was cold.2:33 She crept to the edge of the bed and knelt down.2:38 It was just a bed skirt.2:40 Just a piece of fabric.2:42 But tonight, it felt like the curtain to a secret, wobbly world.2:48 She took a deep breath.2:50 She grabbed the edge of the fabric.2:54 And she lifted.2:55 At first, she saw nothing.2:58 Just dust bunnies and the lost sock she’d been looking for.3:03 It was incredibly dark.3:05 But her eyes started to adjust.3:08 And then she saw it.3:10 In the very back corner, a little lump.3:14 And as her eyes focused, the lump… wobbled.3:18 It wasn’t a monster.3:20 It wasn’t a goblin.3:22 It was Sir Reginald, her little clockwork knight!3:26 He must have rolled under the bed ages ago.3:30 He was lying on his side, and his wind-up key was caught on a fallen book.3:37 Every time he tried to march, he just… wobbled.3:42 Wobble-wobble-thump.3:44 Lily giggled.3:45 A big, happy giggle that chased all the scary feelings right out of the room.3:52 She reached under, her arm brushing past fluffy dust bunnies, and rescued Sir Reginald from his wobbly prison.4:03 She held him tight.4:05 He wasn't scary at all.4:07 He was just stuck.4:08 Lily climbed back into bed, placing the little knight on her nightstand where he stood tall and proud.4:18 She realized that being brave didn’t mean the wobble-wobble went away.4:25 It just meant you were willing to look.4:28 And sometimes, when you look, the scariest sound in the world turns out to be a friend who just needs a helping hand.
