Ep 8. Growing Up Creepie: goth to Have Better Friends/Wax Attacks

Growing Up Creepie is a children's animated series that takes viewers on a creepy crawl through the wacky world of insects. In season 1 episode 8, titled "Goth to Have Better Friends/Wax Attacks," Creepie is feeling down in the dumps about her friend situation at school. She feels like she doesn't fit in with any of the cliques and is struggling to make meaningful connections. Hoping to find a group of people who share her interests, Creepie decides to explore the world of goth culture.

Creepie is immediately drawn to the goth scene and everything it represents. She loves the dark clothing, spooky makeup, and moody music. The goth kids are welcoming to Creepie and even show her how to apply the perfect winged eyeliner. For a brief moment, Creepie feels like she's found her tribe and is elated by the prospect of having friends who truly understand her.

However, things quickly take a turn for the worse when Creepie realizes that the goth kids are actually a little too intense for her liking. They're constantly talking about death, horror movies, and other macabre topics that make Creepie feel uncomfortable. She starts to get the sense that she doesn't fit in with them either and begins to feel even more lost than before.

Meanwhile, Budge is having his own problems. He's been eating a lot of wax lately (as bugs do) and it's starting to affect his digestive system. Creepie tries to help him by concocting a special wax-removal smoothie, but it doesn't help. In fact, it makes things worse when the smoothie causes Budge to throw up wax all over the school principal.

As the episode progresses, Creepie learns an important lesson about friendship and being true to herself. She realizes that she doesn't need to conform to any particular group in order to make friends. Instead, she should focus on finding people who share her interests and who appreciate her for who she is.

In the end, Creepie has a heart-to-heart with the goth kids and explains that while she loves their style, she's just not into some of the more extreme aspects. They understand her feelings and are happy to have her as a friend regardless. Meanwhile, Budge starts to feel better thanks to some helpful advice from his insect friends.

Overall, "Goth to Have Better Friends/Wax Attacks" is a fun and thoughtful episode of Growing Up Creepie that teaches kids about the importance of self-expression, staying true to oneself, and being open to new experiences.
