Trina watches Zane get into the car and sees the dummy wink at her.

After being asked to give Zane a dummy, Trina gives Zane Slappy as a parting gift as payback for getting her and Dan grounded. The next day, Zane leaves to go back home with his father. Zane spots Dan and Trina in the attic with the dummies lying around and rats them out to their father. Afterward, all the dummies fall down lifeless just as Zane walks into the attic. It is then described that the dummies 'pulled and tugged him,' but Slappy has not been killed. They all huddle around Slappy, as he lets out a scream. Slappy is still alive and well, but all of the other dummies come to life. Trina and Dan sneak up into the attic and read the magic words out loud. Trina thought they could put him to sleep as well. Trina thinks back and remembers the magic words she read to bring Slappy to life.

Dan and Trina try to dump Slappy in a well, but he returns the next morning. To their horror, they discover Slappy trying to sneak off with Rocky, and Slappy tells them that they're his slaves. To prove that Zane is guilty, Dan and Trina sneak up to the attic to wait for Zane to come up and steal Rocky. Dan suspects Zane and tells Trina, but nobody else believes them. More catastrophes occur afterward, each with Rocky at the scene of the crime. The three make a truce not to prank each other like that going forward. Many things are ruined: Zane's camera, the dining room table, and the film in Zane's camera by the dummy.ĭan and Trina eventually catch Zane taking Rocky from the attic and it's revealed that Zane was placing Rocky in weird places for fun. After a while, one of the dummies called Rocky pops up in weird places, scaring Zane while Trina and Dan get the blame for each incident. Their father makes them promise not to scare Zane, as they had done in a previous visit. Trina and Dan's cousin, Zane, is coming for a visit. Shortly after, Slappy slaps her across the face. Trina finds a piece of paper that says ' Karru Marri Odonna Loma Molonu Karrano' in Slappy's front pocket and reads it. After repairing his broken shaft, he names him Smiley, unaware of the dummy's past. O'Dell brings Slappy home after finding him in a dumpster. Trina O'Dell and her brother, Dan O'Dell's father, Danny O'Dell, collects various ventriloquist dummies. No way those dummies could be alive! Right? And dummies keep showing up in the strangest places. Trina and her brother, Dan, think the dummies are pretty cool. That's why he has all those dummies in the attic. Trina O'Dell's dad used to have a ventriloquist act. 11 References in other Goosebumps media.
