Ep 7. Old Monster / Mother May I?

In the seventh episode of season one of AAAHH!!! Real Monsters, titled "Old Monster / Mother May I?", the lovable trio Ickis, Oblina, and Krumm face a series of hilarious yet challenging adventures.

The first segment, "Old Monster," begins with the young monsters being assigned a project that requires them to scare someone over 300 years old. The catch is that such an individual is rare to come by, and the only one they can find is the Gromble's teacher, the Elder. The Elder is a feeble-looking monster who has been around for centuries and is highly respected by all the monsters. Ickis, Oblina, and Krumm devise a plan to scare the Elder, but it backfires when the Elder suffers a heart attack.

Feeling guilty, the trio tries their best to make things right, and they invite the Elder over to their dorm room for some rest and relaxation. But the Elder, who is much smarter than he appears, sees through their plan and instead gets them to do his household chores. Through their hard work and patience, the monsters earn the Elder's respect, and he develops a fondness for them.

In the second segment, "Mother May I?," the monsters receive their next assignment - to scare a human mother. Oblina, being the only one with a hint of femininity, decides to dress up as a human mother and enlists the help of her friends to scare her. But to their surprise, the human mother they choose turns out to be Ickis's own mother, who is immune to their scaring tactics.

Ickis's mother is a no-nonsense woman who doesn't believe in her son's monster lifestyle and has been trying to make him leave the academy and go back home. Meanwhile, inside the human mother's house, Oblina, Krumm, and Ickis dress up as different members of the household, trying their best to scare Ickis's mother.

As the trio's antics progress, Ickis's mother discovers that her own son is a monster and leaves the house in shock. But instead of giving up on her son, she comes back and helps the trio scare her in a hilarious and heartwarming finale that showcases the importance of family.

Overall, the seventh episode of AAAHH!!! Real Monsters is a testament to the show's staying power and its ability to balance comedy with emotional depth. The episodes' two segments are charming, quirky, and full of the zany monster fun that makes the show so endearing.
