Plot
In Black Dolphin Prison, Russia 1996, 2 extremely dangerous criminal brothers, Larry and Max Proxton (Charlie Day and Johnny Depp), escape in a truck which crashes near the edge of a ravine. The warden arrives, stating he is impressed by the Proxtons' achievement and giving them two choices; stay in the truck or surrender. The Proxtons refused to surrender and he kicks the truck into the ravine, apparently killing them. Larry and Max, however, have managed to get out of the truck. When the coast is clear, they climb back up and walk away. While walking to Moscow, they encounter a living pickle. The pickle pulled out a knife and was going to kill them, but Max eats it. They find out that monsters do exist, pointing out their ancestors' message about killing a little vampire girl to accomplish their dream of world domination, was not a joke.

25 years later, on Vee's (Isabella Crovetti) birthday, Gregoria (Wanda Sykes) gives her a pair of cruise tickets with the intention of going with her. She invites Demi instead, disappointing Gregoria. Before they left, Larry and Max (who are presumed dead), with their robotic assistant, Proxtron (Trey Parker) who live next door to Poppy, pay the Hauntleys a visit. While Larry and Max were talking with Boris and Oxanna about Vee's cruise trip, Proxtron unnoticeably takes a tiny portion of her blood and puts a nanotracker on her neck. When the Proxtons got back, they analysed Vee's DNA. The data shows her DNA is Nox Eternis ("Eternal Night" in Latin), revealing Vee's true identity. Larry and Max are surprised what they have been searching for for a long time, is one house away.
