Ruby Gloom - Season 1

The gang is shocked to discover that Scaredy Bat has never actually flown due to nerves and a "woozy" reaction to heights. Ruby takes the lead as they try to help him conquer his fear. But it's not until Scaredy Bat finds a good reason to fly that he actually learns he can – when his friend Ruby is in danger and he has to save her.

When Doom's odd behavior includes pointing to things that aren't there, Ruby starts to worry she's having a nervous breakdown. The gang tries to set Doom on the right course but it turns out, Doom's not bonkers at all. She's just been seeing a ghost-in-training, "Boo-Boo" who is trying to win favor from his "Family" (two ghost gangsters both named Mr. White). Problem is, Boo-Boo can't scare a soul and Doom can't prove there's a ghost in the house to begin with.

During a raucous game of Hide n' Seek, Mr. Buns goes missing. Acting the part of a 1940's film noire detective, Skull Boy interrogates the suspects, walking everyone through reenactments of the fateful moments before Mr. Buns' disappearance. Luckily, Mr. Buns is not the victim of foul play and is found safe and sound in the laundry room after being caught up in someone's wash.

Iris' latest adventure craze –coiled spring jumping – proves that enough is never enough for Iris. As she crashes through floor after floor she causes chaos and mayhem, perfect for Misery but not so great for Skull Boy who had just finished putting together a working model of the cosmos using only potato chips and dip. However, at the moment Ruby convinces Iris to spring less, Iris crashes through the floor, down into the earth. The gang must journey far below, brave perilous and wonderful worlds in order to rescue her. In the end, they find her on the other side of the world and learn to appreciate the adventure lust that drives her.

The whole house is a hive of activity as everyone prepares for the upcoming science fair. Skull Boy is distraught because he can't seem to come up with an idea for a project. With Poe's help, Skull Boy gets the idea that he should build a father to help with his science fair. After some failed father-son activities, Skull Boy soon realizes that his new dad may do more harm than good. His creation must be stopped before a rampage threatens to destroy all the other kids' projects.

When Poe injures his wing, he is soon driving everyone crazy with his incessant demands. Ruby relegates Poe to the highest turret in the house to rest and recuperate (and to preserve everyone else's sanity). In an homage to Rear Window, Poe soon misinterprets the actions of their new neighbor, convinced he is up to something sinister. His suspicions grow to panic as he watches Iris, Skull Boy and the rest of his friends one by one go next door. Luckily, when he elicits the help of the resident coward (Scaredy Bat) to take him there, he discovers it's not a torture chamber at all but just Gloomsville's first funhouse.

Ruby acts as Frank and Len's manager and suggests they get a girl singer for their upcoming appearance at Gloomapalooza. The auditions are fruitless, until they hear a beautiful pop-sounding voice from somewhere in the house. Eventually, they discover its Misery, but she's sleepwalking. Turns out, she can only sing when she's asleep. They go about trying to get her to sleep so they can rehearse. But then realize they have to keep her awake so she's tired enough to sleep for the performance. It's not until Poe steps in with an anecdote backstage, that Misery is knocked out enough to rock the house in the finale.

Frank and Len are writing a rock opera for everyone in the house to star in at the Gloomsville Music Hall. But they experience writer's block and just can't seem to get a handle on the opera's four star characters: Misery, Iris, Doom, and Ruby. Ruby suggests they just need to imagine what its like to be them. You know "get inside their head" more. Frank and Len try this to no avail. But when they slip and bump their heads – they wake up…inside Misery's head (literally) Then Iris's. Doom's…And finally, Ruby's. In this crazy dream that shows them what it's really like to be in everyone else's shoes, Frank and Len grow to appreciate the differences in each other. And as a result, when they finally wake up, they're able to write the best rock opera ever.

It's Club Day in Gloomsville. The gang splinter off to form clubs and prepare for the club's appearance in the big Gloomsville parade. Skull Boy forms the coolest club of all with some new jazzy skeletal friends that no one ever sees. At first no one believes Skull Boy has these new friends since every time they want to meet them, they disappear. When pressed for details, he admits he hasn't met them yet – they're imaginary. The band of jazz playing skeletons finally reveal themselves at the big parade and everyone tries to join the skeleton club immediately.
