| 0:00.0 | We're going to see, nozzy. We're going to see. We're going to be. I'm The |
| 0:23.6 | The Good evening and welcome to Monsters Among us. |
| 0:56.0 | I am your guide, Derek Hayes. |
| 1:00.3 | What a pleasure it is to have you with us here tonight. |
| 1:04.3 | Thank you for tuning it. |
| 1:07.2 | Now, as you've probably already suspected, |
| 1:09.8 | we're switching things up a bit here this evening, |
| 1:12.5 | because this episode marks the beginning of the end of season 20. |
