Elle is a street girl and a friend of the young Sam Wing. She is one of the main characters of the series "Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai".

Appearance[]

Elle is a teenage girl, though her exact age is unknown. She is slightly taller than Sam and has brown hair. She is a French girl from France.

Personality[]

Her years of living as a thief and being in the employment of Riley Greene, as well as her parents abandoning her, have made Elle a jaded, cynical girl who simply does what she needs to do to survive without a second thought or any regrets. She is not above betraying people she befriended, and has a hard time trusting anyone. Thanks to Sam, she gradually becomes a better person.

History[]

Secrets of the Mogwai[]

Years before the start of the series, when Elle was seven years old, her parents trained her to be a thief. During the mid-Autumn festival, her parents made her rob Riley Greene, but Greene caught her in the act and captured her. Her parents, rather than helping her, made a run for it and left Elle with Greene, who forced the girl into his employment. Elle found out later that her parents never went back for her because they got greedy and stole so many lanterns that they floated high above the city and their cries echoed through the night. Her mother's right shoe was found, but nothing else.

In the years that followed Elle worked for Greene as his spy and thief, forming a network of other street children to help her out.

When she is first seen, Elle and another boy watch the circus, where they see Gizmo performing. They release a pigeon which causes a firework to go off. The boy moves until he bumps into Elle, who tells him that whatever he had brought her there for had better be good. The boy points to the mogwai, who Elle says appeared to be what their boss was searching for.

Elle approaches the mogwai, who uses weapons to cut the chord that was holding him. As he tries to run, he bumps into one of the brothers, who grabs him and tells him to take a bow. Sam's grandfather tells him they cannot leave and takes him away.

Elle buys Gizmo

Elle offered to buy Gizmo, eventually convincing the circus master.

The mogwai is put in a cage and yelled at, while Sam's grandfather tells him that he is a Mogwai, which are the rarest mystical creatures, which have not been seen in centuries because they are very dangerous under human care. Sam's grandfather tells him that they need to take it, but the circus master is approached by Elle, who offers to buy the creature.

Sam sees this and gives up, but his grandfather pulls out a knife, saying that he would cause a distraction by cutting a rope. However, he falls and the circus master notices. His grandfather pulls out a marble, which he throws at the circus master. When he picks it up, there is an explosion and Elle takes the mogwai. However, he bites her and escapes his cage, so Sam's grandfather tells him to go after him.

Sam runs after the mogwai, along with the circus master, who manages to grab him. Sam gets him away from the circus master, but the mogwai runs from him as well. The mogwai is grabbed by Elle, so Sam runs after her. Sam's grandfather knocks down a pillar, which makes Elle throw the creature into the air. He is caught by Sam, who tells him that he would not hurt him.

Elle walks across the street as she is approached by her boss, who wonders if she had found a mogwai. He tells her not to give him an excuse. She shows him the family flyer and tells him that she knows who grabbed his mogwai.

Elle knocks on the Wing family's door, while her boss tells her to behave as if she works for him. Sam's family hides as Sam's grandfather says that he could protect Gizmo since he has a kind heart, handing him a book and saying he would scare the people outside, who threatened Gizmo's safety.

Sam's grandfather tells the mysterious man that their shop was closed, but the man says that nothing closes for him. After talking for a little bit, the man infers that he used to be a treasure hunter, also asking if he knows the value of what he had stolen from him. He introduces himself as Riley Green, saying that he also considers himself a treasure hunter, offering to leave if he gives him the mogwai. Sam's grandfather laughs, saying that he does have the mogwai, but had never come home empty handed during his days as a treasure hunter. He pulls out a spin drum and begins playing it, shooting at Riley's security and shooting at Riley as well.

Riley swallows Sam's grandfther

Riley turned Sam's grandfather into a pearl he swallowed in order to consume his knowledge.

After smoke clears, Riley is unfazed, saying he had learned that trick as a child, and shooting at Sam's grandfather with something he mastered as an adult. Both of them clash with magic, but Sam's grandfather is overpowered and captured into a small pearl by Riley. Elle tries to escape, but is not allowed to do so by Riley. Riley opens his mouth wide and swallows the pearl Sam's grandfather was in.

Riley and his team hear Sam's family. Sam's father tells Sam and his mother to leave, which they do instantly, followed through the city by Riley's men and Elle.

Elle tries to leave Riley

After helping Riley get to the mogwai, Elle tried to convince him to let her go.

Later, Elle walks into Riley's room, where he is performing magic, digesting Sam's grandfather's knowledge. Elle says that she believes capturing the mogwai should cover her debt. Riley explains that if she is uneasy about what she had seen, it is because she is ignorant. He tells her that the creature is key to leading them to the Valley of Jade, which contains treasure. He tells her that they would never be even and she would always work for him.

A man walks out of the dumpling restaurant, while Sam and Gizmo make it. They look for the mogwai inside, seeing them trapped in some sort of cement because they had eaten after midnight. Riley walks in with Elle, revealing he knows Sam's name. Sam refuses to hand over Gizmo because of what he had seen him do to his grandfather. Riley reveals that he knows everything Sam's grandfather knew, including his plan to go to the Valley of Jade. Riley freezes Sam and takes Gizmo, taunting Sam until he is hit in the head from behind by Elle, which knocks him out.

Elle tells Sam she would help him

Elle told Sam that she would help him, as she was opposed to Riley's plans.

Sam runs away with Gizmo with Elle following closely behind. Elle reaches Sam and says that she would be helping him since she did not know Riley was going to do any of the things he had done. Elle says that they should help each other out since Green would be following them both. Elle blows a whistle, saying that she could get a message to his parents. Sam tells Elle they need to get to Fengdong, so Elle steals some keys and has both of them jump on top of a train.

On the train, Sam, Elle and Gizmo are impressed at the view. Sam explains that the key to the Valley of Jade is in Ghost City, but he does not know what that means. Gizmo knows what it means, but Elle argues that they cannot understand him. The train staff start asking for tickets, which they do not have, so Elle says that she would talk to the conductor. On her way, she steals tickets and asks for first class, which they are taken to.

In the first class cabin, Sam says that stealing is wrong and reminds Elle that she is no longer working for Greene, so she can stop doing that. However, she says that she has been using her skills since before working for Greene. Sam says that he would be earning his money and wants to leave, but Gizmo falls asleep and stays with Elle.

As Sam goes around the train offering people to shine their shoes, Gizmo is approached by a shadow, which scares him. However, when Elle looks, she sees nothing there.

Elle tells Gizmo that she had finally been able to sleep in a bed in years, so she wants to go back to the first class cabin. Sam walks in, acting strange, which makes Elle feel suspicious. Elle pokes his foot, which reveals that that was not Sam, but a monster trying to get Gizmo.

Sam walks in with Elle and Gizmo, saying that he knew he could not trust her. Elle tells him to back off, asking him where they had met, which Sam answers correctly. Elle reveals that there is a monster on the train, which Sam does not believe, so they start fighting for Gizmo. Yao walks in, asking what was going on. Elle recognizes him as a train cop, which makes Sam tell her that he trusts him, handing Yao Gizmo. Yao thanks him for handing him the mogwai and the monster reveals itself, shooting at both Sam and Elle, pinning them to a wall.

Odd-Odd prepares to eat Gizmo

Odd-Odd revealed himself to really be a monster and not the inspector they thought he was.

The monster asks if Sam really never suspected Yao was not real, saying that he shapeshifts into different people. The monster smells Gizmo, turning on a stove, which makes Sam wonder why he would eat Gizmo. The monster reveals that he wants to live forever.

As the monster, who calls himself Odd-Odd explains how to cook mogwai, Sam asks him if he is a shapeshifter and wonders why he did not simply take Gizmo when he had the chance. Odd-Odd says that he was a performer, who played in the greatest stories, but now stuck to the train, where travelers would give him whatever he wanted. However, he mentions that age is not kind and mentions that finding a mogwai was a huge success. Elle and Sam ask more questions, which Odd-Odd happily answers while Gizmo escapes the rope and climbs to the top of the train.

Sam and Elle face Odd-Odd

As Sam and Elle faced Odd-Odd, the former got too nervous and ended up missing his chance to throw a gourd at the monster.

Elle breaks free and says that they need to save Gizmo, who is now on the train's roof, followed by Odd-Odd. Odd-Odd chases Gizmo, telling him that he wants to eat him. Sam reads his grandfather's book in hopes of finding something that could help them against a shapeshifter. He says that with a few spices, they can attack Odd-Odd. They grab the spices and ingredients, rushing to the top of the train so they can help Gizmo. As Odd-Odd attacks Sam and Elle, Sam gets nervous before throwing the gourd with the ingredients at Odd-Odd and it slips from out of his hands.

However, Elle sees Odd-Odd from behind and realizes that he is actually small and attacks him with a stick. Odd-Odd is left crying and says goodbye. Sam says that he does not know what they would do without her and they decide to get off the train.


Elle betrays Sam

When Sam trusted Elle, she betrayed him, taking Gizmo with her.

Sam apologizes for not trusting Elle, saying that he could hold Gizmo whenever she wanted. Elle thanks him for the confidence and holds Gizmo before separating their wagons and leaving Sam stranded.

Elle walks with Gizmo saying that she does not like the countryside. However, Gizmo is mad at her for abandoning Sam. She reminds him that the monster almost ate him because Sam was too scared to do anything and telling him that if he wants to get to Ghost City, he needs to work with her. As it starts to rain, she runs to a nearby inn while Gizmo covers himself.

Meng Po offers Elle some tea

Meng Po tried to get Elle to drink some of her strange tea.

Elle opens the door to the inn, where many people look in shock at her. She pretends that she was running away from bandits as a woman named Meng Po tells her she would be safe from bandits there. Elle says that she has no money, but Meng says it is free and they would be having crispy duck for dinner because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, which Elle hates. Meng tells everyone to start cleaning, as she hands Elle a weird looking tea, which she does not drink. Meng tells her that she seems more relaxed and she is taken to her room.

Gizmo mad at Elle

Gizmo was still mad at Elle for having abandoned Sam.

In her room, Elle sees that Gizmo is still mad at her, but she says that something seems off about Meng Po and her guests. She says that they should look around, which Gizmo agrees to do reluctantly when she says that she would leave him alone. As Elle walks around, a guest stops her and shows her a magic trick, also revealing that everyone had gotten there on the same day she had. He says he is glad he is not the only teenager there anymore because he is 15. However, he looks much closer to being middle aged, so she walks away.

Sam does not remember Elle and Gizmo

Much to their surprise, Sam was not able to recall who Elle and Gizmo were.

Elle realizes that everyone thinks they arrived that same day, as Sam walks in. Elle says that Sam must want to kill her as Gizmo breaks free from her grip and hugs Sam. Sam does not recognize Gizmo and calls him a panda dragon, which confuses the mogwai. Sam greets Elle happily, saying that he does not know who they are, but says that they could have tea after he is done cleaning.

Elle realizes that the tea is wiping people's memories. She tells Gizmo to fix it, but he says that there is nothing he can do. However, he has an idea and Elle understands that Sam could help with his herb knowledge. Elle says that she has a new chore for Sam, which excites him as he sees all the leaves and spices that Meng Po has. When asked if there was anything that could help with memory loss, he says that there is a powder that could reduce any bad effect.

Sam gets to mixing many different spices quickly. When he is done, he tells Elle that she could eat or inhale the dust and all the toxins should clear out. She hesitates to blow the dust in his face when she remembers how angry he was at her, however, and a bell begins to ring, signaling the start of the Mid-Autumn Festival, which excites Sam.

Meng Po approaches Elle from behind, saying that she knew something was off about her. Elle thinks quickly and throws dust in Meng Po's eyes as she runs for the door. Meng Po runs after her while Gizmo grabs the small pouch with the dust Sam had prepared in it.

Gizmo runs to Sam and blows the dust he prepared in his face, which gives him his memory back. He sees Gizmo and is excited, hugging him and asking where they are. Meng Po tells all her guests to stop Elle, but she tells them that she prefers coffee.

Meng Po tells Elle that she gives her tea to those who need it and have no family or friends. She explains that she had been left on her own, so she created her tea so people would not leave. She forces Elle to drink the tea, which reveals Elle's past and the reason she became who she is. Sam and Gizmo hear Elle's story, and is conflicted about saving her because she ditched him, but in the end he chooses to help her. Gizmo has in idea, which he communicates to Sam, who tells him he really missed him. Gizmo grabs the dust Sam made and dumps it all over the food.

As the guests start to eat, their memory starts returning and they realize what had happened to them. Sam walks up to Elle and gives her her memories back. Sam tells Elle that he remembers her now as the guests pin Meng Po to the table and force her to drink her own tea. However, Elle stops them from doing it, telling them that she would end up all alone and she should be able to remember that she had lost everything.

Sam, Elle, and Gimzo back together

Sam, Elle and Gizmo officially rejoined in order to get Gizmo back to his home.

Sam, Gizmo and Elle start walking, while Elle wonders if they really still want her. Sam tells her that they need her, convincing her to go with him.

Meanwhile, Sam tells Elle and Gizmo that his grandfather's map should take them straight to Ghost City after crossing the forest they were in. They mention that the forest is scary, which Sam's grandfather also wrote down. Looking at his notebook, Sam also reads that his grandfather suggested stabbing or running when encountering creatures in the forest.

Sam, Elle and Gizmo start hearing things, so they run until they stumble upon a man, who tells them to give him everything they have. The man holds a small blade and points it at them, so Sam tells Elle to do what the thief says. However, Elle kicks the blade out of the man's hand and says that the bandit is weak. When they turn around, another creature runs up to the bandit and kills him with its claws, turning the man into another creature just like him. They realize that they are being chased by many identical creatures, so they start running way from them until they reach a small cabin, which they go into and shut the doors.

Sam, Elle, and Gizmo meet Radish

Sam, Elle and Gizmo met Radish while escaping from the monsters.

Sam and Elle struggle to hold the creatures out of the cabin and they are now completely surrounded. Elle falls through a hole on the floor, where she is followed by Sam. However, Elle pints out that they are not alone and a kid pops out, greeting them and introducing himself as Radish. He presents his best friend which is a radish he calls Theodore. Radish tells them that he grows carrots and had run away from the orphanage. The monsters break in through the door and start looking for the children.

In the cabin, the hopping monsters wait for the children to come out as Sam reads his grandfather's book and Elle asks Radish if he never thought to dig another way out. Radish says that he had a perfect life there, so he had no need to do so. He reveals that a man had called for his help calling the monsters Jiangxi, which makes Sam remember when his grandfather told him about the history of the Jiangxi and how using a talisman would freeze them right where they hop, but he needs to place it on its forehead.

The Jiangxi begin to attack the children and manage to grab hold of Theodore. Radish yells at them, telling the monsters that they could not have his friend, but he is told to let the radish go by Elle. However, Radish says that he is Radish, and his friend is Theodore. He bolts out of the house and goes after the Jiangxi, so Elle tells Sam that their new acquaintance would not make it out there. Sam looks for for the talisman and draws the symbols, going after the Jiangxi. Gizmo and Elle go after him as well.

Sam places talisman on Jiangxi

Forcing himself to be brave, Sam was able to place a talisman on a Jiangxi's forehead.

Sam and Elle grab the Jiangxi's attention, so Radish is able to grab Theodore. The Jiangxi begin to chase them, while Gizmo calls for Radish's attention so they can take care of a few as well. Sam places a talisman on one of the Jiangxi, which makes it freeze, but he is approached by some more. Working as a team, Elle and Sam manage to place more talismans on the Jiangxi while Radish and Gizmo throw carrots at the monsters, which also allows them to place talismans on their foreheads. Eventually, all Jiangxi have talismans on their foreheads, after which Sam invites Radish to join them on their adventure. Radish asks Theodore and says that they are both in.

Sam, Elle, Gizmo, and Radish all walk until they reach the end of the forest and look down upon Ghost City. Sam is excited that his grandfather's directions were correct, but Elle gives Sam the credit he deserves for getting them through the forest.

Children make it to Fengdong

The children finally made it to Fengdong, which Elle found underwhelming.

As Sam, Radish and Elle walk with Gizmo, the latter recognizes Fengdong, which is the Ghost city, which Sam says is only a quick stop along the way to finding the key to the Valley of Jade.

As the children walk through Ghost City, Riley's ship approaches as well. Riley tells his mogwai to go because he knows the key is around there somewhere.

Gizmo guides the group, but they are all surprised when they see Greene's mogwai approaching them and starting to create chaos all over the place. Sam and Elle are very confused as to how they were approached by the mogwai, realizing that Greene may be there as well. Sam realizes that they only needed to wait until sunrise and sees Gizmo moving away discretely.

Gizmo finally makes it to a clearing, followed by Sam, Radish and Elle. Gizmo starts to sing, which makes a portal open, so they all walk inside. One of Greene's mogwai sees this and tries to follow them, to no avail.

Walking through the spiritual city

As the children walked through the city, they were very surprised.

Sam, Elle, Radish and Gizmo see many different creatures inside the portal. Elle says that the place is creepy. Radish is delighted when his radish comes to life, introducing herself as Theodora. Gizmo calls out and points to a statue. Gizmo looks for someone, who he is told is in the tavern. Many creatures approach, surprised to see a mogwai, so the children start running.

Elle, Sam, Radish and Gizmo make it into a tavern, where they are followed00 by creatures that want Gizmo. However, they are protected by a woman, who Gizmo greets happily. She introduces herself as Nuwa, calling herself the goddess of creation.

Meeting Nuwa

Nuwa introduced herself as the goddess of creation and was able to communicate with Gizmo.

Nuwa asks if the Valley of Jade is okay, talking with Gizmo who she is able to understand perfectly. She tells Gimzo that he has always been too kind to humans. Nuwa tells Sam that she can understand Gizmo, while Elle asks Nuwa to get them to the Valley of Jade. Nuwa refuses, saying that she would not allow humans to go to the Valley of Jade. Nuwa says that she would send Gizmo back to his home, opening a portal, telling them that she would not help the humans.

Gizmo is sad to be leaving Sam as both of them share one last hug. Elle also gets a hug, but she uses the hug in order to spill Nuwa's drink so as to distract her and be able to run into the portal. However, she is dragged back and both her and Sam are held by Nuwa.

Gizmo refuses to go in the portal

Gizmo refused to go inside the portal Nuwa created.

Elle and Sam fight, while Nuwa tells Gizmo to go through the portal. However, he refuses to do so. Nuwa tells him to go, wondering if he would really give up going home for Elle and Sam. Gizmo responds that he would give it up, so Nuwa tells him that Elle only cares about the treasure and Sam, his family. Nuwa tells Elle and Sam that she would have liked not to have created humans.

Nuwa explains that a long time ago, her brother and her argued about humans. Nuwa say them as fairly good, but the mogwai were created as tests. However, in the end, the humans broke the rules that were layed out for them. Nuwa stopped the test before Chine was destroyed and so created the Valley of Jade. After her explanation, Sam and Elle don't defend themselves, but Gizmo does it for them.

Riley demands that he be handed over the mogwai

Riley demanded that he be handed over the mogwai.

Looking up, Nuwa sees Greene's mogwai. Sam says that they did not break all of the rules, as Nuwa says that she would need to clean up their mess. However, she realizes that her magic is not working and starts feeling bad after drinking a bottle. Greene's mogwai attack Sam and Elle as Riley tries to enter the tavern. Riley tells her to hand over the mogwai.

Evil mogwai chaos

The evil mogwai started wreaking havoc all over town.

The mogwai wreak havoc across town while Riley tells Elle to hand over the mogwai, saying he will forgive her if she does. Inside the tavern, Nuwa, Gizmo, Sam, and Elle hide from them. Nuwa complains that if Elle had not tried to go inside the portal, then she would not be poisoned and Gizmo would be safe at home. Elle fights off the rogue mogwai while Radish shows up, saying that he thought he and Theodora should warn them that Greene and the rest of the mogwai were there.

The evil mogwai keep attacking Sam and Elle, so Sam lights a fire, which scares off the rest of the mogwai. Riley still waits outside, telling his mogwai to wait until the poison takes effect because he prefers to win when he fights. However, when he sees that his mogwai are scared because of the fire Sam lit, he goes inside the tavern. He asks where his mogwai, the goddess and the children are. He believes he found Sam, but is surprised to see Radish there instead, who he shoots at in order to push him away.

Group flees from fox spirits

The group was forced to run from fox spirits.

Sam, Elle, Gizmo, and Nuwa walk away from the bar while a fox spirit looks at them and tells her crew that since a mogwai was on the loose, and Nuwa was too weak to protect it, they should go after it. Elle helps Nuwa walk as the goddess complains. However, she tells them that Gizmo is in danger, so they need to go to the Bagua room in order to find someone there who can send Gizmo home. They see a fox spirit, so Nuwa says that they need to go. However, Sam stops to greet them, only to be chased by them, so they are forced to leave as soon as possible, pulling Nuwa on a wagon.

As they move, an explosion occurs. Elle tells Sam to give her the box while he takes Gizmo in order for her to work as bait. Sam runs with Gizmo as fast as possible, but he is still being chased by other creatures. Gizmo and Sam realize that they can smell Gizmo, so the mogwai rubs himself with fish in a cart, which Sam pulls. With the cart, they are able to cloud Gizmo's smell and they are able to move freely.

Riley fights fox spirits

Riley was forced to fight off the fox spirits when Elle diverted them towards him.

Elle is still pushing Nuwa, who still complains that Elle only wants to go to the Valley of Jade for treasure. Elle stops and runs into Riley, who says that she could still be somewhat forgiven. She realizes that she is still being chased by the fox spirits, so she runs away from them, telling Nuwa that she would introduce two monsters to each other. Riley sees her approaching and tells his mogwai to block her. However, Elle pulls away, which makes the spirits unable to divert in time, and so they run into the mogwai and Riley, who begins to shoot at them.

Gizmo happily rides the fish cart Sam grabbed until they make it to the Bagua room. However, outside, Sam is saddened by the fact that he will have to leave Gizmo. Elle and Nuwa reveal that they made it in time as well. Sam and Elle drag Nuwa, which makes them forget Gizmo, whose cart begins to move backward. It turns out the cart was a fish who wants to eat Gizmo, so Sam and Elle rush to help. Sam hurries and throws poison into the fish's mouth, which makes it let Gizmo go. They push it into the river and celebrate.

Nuwa tells Sam and Elle that they are stupid because they pushed a river spirit into the river. which is the source of its power. The fish jumps up and heads straight for Gizmo, so Elle throws herself and pushes Gizmo out of the way, saving him, but making the fish eat her instead. Nuwa kills the spirit and Sam sees Elle, whose pulse is weak and is not breathing. Nuwa says that there is nothing that any human could do for her.

Celestial administrator helps Elle

The Celstial Administrator helped bring Elle back to life.

A man called Administrator opens the door and sees Elle lying on the floor, so Nuwa tells him to help her out. The man takes out some ingredients as Sam cries for her friend. He says that he has a special magic ingredient which he takes out and uses in order to help Elle, who wakes up. Gizmo and Sam are happy to see Elle is okay; the first thing she asks is if Gizmo is okay, which Nuwa says had surprised her.

Evil mogwai laugh outside and join Riley as he makes his way to the Bagua room. Nuwa closes the door and tells Administrator to prepare a portal to the Valley of Jade. She tells Sam and Elle that they would be going through the portal as well. Nuwa tells them to try not to mess everything up as she hands them passports, mentioning that she would be trying to hold them off as much as possible. Everybody tells her to go with them, but she refuses, saying goodbye to Gizmo.

Children amazed by Valley of Jade

The children were amazed at how beautiful the Valley of Jade is.

In the Valley of Jade, Gizmo, Sam, and Elle are amazed as how beautiful it is. Sam wishes his grandfather was there to see it, while Gizmo wishes Nuwa was there. Elle tells them not to get worried, since things were okay after she had died.

Gizmo, looks down and runs up to a friend of his, who is excited to see him. They run off to find the other mogwai, while Sam and Elle follow closely behind. The other mogwai are excited until they see Sam and Elle, who scare them. However, Gizmo tells them that the humans are okay and the mogwai approach them. After that, Gizmo starts to sing along with the other mogwai, making all the plants glow.

Elle holds knife of creation

Elle held the knife of creation, saying that she would create treasure with it.

Gizmo plays with his friends as Sam and Elle watch. However, Elle tells Gizmo that she would really like some treasure in order to live a good life. She sees a knife buried in a rock, which she pulls out. Sam recognizes it as Nuwa's creating knife, so Elle decides that with it, she would create gold. Once she creates a golden butterfly, Sam puts the knife back, saying that mortals should not play god. Gizmo hands Elle a rock, which she recognizes as jade, which excites her. Sam reminds her that she promised that she would help out with his parents, which Elle says that she remembers.

Gizmo is sad that Sam and Elle are leaving; Sam and Elle say that they would miss him as well. Sam wonders if they could visit sometime, but Elle says that they probably could not. Gizmo beckons them over and places some paint on their face, saying that he would always be with them. All three of them hug, but are interrupted when a mogwai is scared by Riley's evil mogwai.

Riley floats down to Elle, Sam, and Gizmo, revealing that he had swallowed Nuwa, taking all her knowledge in the process. Riley also mentions that he originally intended to take all the mogwai in order to sell immortality, but he realized that the valley held just than just the mogwai, looking at the knife.

Sam faces Riley

As Sam held the knife up towards Riley, the latter taunted him.

Gizmo and Elle are attacked by evil mogwai, but Sam manages to avoid them and grabs the knife, telling Riley to stand back. Riley says that the knife is dangerous, but Sam remembers his grandfather and knows that he could protect the mogwai. Riley taunts him, showing Sam his parents and telling him that the knife is very dangerous to use. Sam is now confused, worried about his parents as Elle tells him that it was a lie and he could use it.

Since he hesitates, Sam has the knife taken away from him by Riley, who says that he now only needed a taste of eternal life. He takes a mogwai and swallows him, declaring himself immortal. Elle and Sam exclaim in horror while Riley's eyes glow full of color.

Sam apologizes to Elle

Sam apologized to Elle for not having used the knife.

Sam wakes up startled, asking where his parents and Gizmo were. Elle tells him to look down towards the center of the Valley of Jade where he sees the evil mogwai play bowling with Gizmo as the ball. Elle complains that Sam did not even try to create anything while holding the knife, but Sam says that he did not know what to do, apologizing.

Riley flies up to Sam and Elle. Elle is tired of listening to Riley, asking him to kill her, but he says that he would not, as he is now a god and she is irrelevant. He mentions he has a present for Sam, telling him that he could not have done it without him, throwing his parents back at him, saying goodbye.

Sam apologizes to Fong and Hon, saying that he should have never left and admitting failure. He cries as his parents hug and comfort him. Elle makes a sarcastic comment, to which Fong responds by yelling at her, saying they do not like her, but Sam tells her to stop as she had saved his life. Elle says that they have to go and help Gizmo, so she calls out to the evil mogwai and distracts them from their attention. Elle heads down, followed by Sam, Fong, and Hon.

The evil mogwai start dancing and singing together, which surprises Elle, Sam, Fong and Hon. Sam mentions this is strange behavior, which probably indicates something is wrong. Riley turns around and Claw throws herself at him, hugging him. A mogwai tells Riley to allow himself to accept love, since he had always wanted a hug. However, Claw bites him, followed by some other mogwai. Riley frees himself, saying that he is the most powerful being and they would never win by brute force.

Elle tries to grab her mogwai friend, but Claw pushes him into the portal and closes it behind her, leaving Sam, Fong and Hon trapped with her in the Valley of Jade.

Sam is sad, so Hon approaches him, recognizing that his son misses his friend. Hon tries to comfort his son, as Elle approaches, throwing a big rock into the ground, causing it to crack. A portal opens and the Celestial Administrator comes out, asking where the mogwai were, as well as the knife. The Celestial Administrator stops Elle from breaking the runes, but she tells him that she needs to get back to Shanghai. The Administrator complains that he is not a taxi, but sees that he has to take them to Shanghai, so he opens up a portal.

Sam protected by Hon and Fong

Sam was protected by his parents, who were not eager to have him running around again.

Sam, Elle, Hong, Fong, and Riley make it to Shanghai, where Hon says that they would never leave again. However, a window breaks and an evil mogwai enters. Looking through a hole in their door, they see the evil mogwai causing all sorts of chaos and hurting people. Hon knocks Riley out as he is about to change the mogwai's name, so Fong tells the children to put him in a trunk and then to fortify the windows. Sam says that they should fortify the back door as well, but Elle says that they were not staying, since they needed to save their mogwai friend and get out of the city. However, Sam refuses, saying that he cannot, since he had let him down once before and everything was his fault. Elle tells him to do better now that they could try again, but Fong says that they would stay inside the shop until the danger passed, so Elle leaves.

Elle walks away angrily, killing a mogwai that attacks her. She is suddenly surrounded by many of the creatures, which begin to multiply by getting themselves wet. However, Elle defends herself against them. She sees a car and jumps into it, using it to escape and call for Gizmo. She sees the talking mogwai, who she crashes into and forces him to tell her where Gizmo is at. She is told that Gizmo is at Madame Claw's, so she heads towards there.

Gizmo forced to dance

As Claw's prisoner, he was forced to dance.

At Madame Claw's which is full of mogwai playing cards and music, Gizmo is being kept by Claw. Elle walks into the bar while Gizmo attempts to threaten Claw, but he is forced to dance when she shows him the knife of creation. Gizmo tries to run away and is put in a cage by Claw, being forced to dance.

Elle attacks the mogwai at Madame Claw's, which confuses Claw. She begins to use the knife of creation while Elle walks up to Gizmo, releasing him from his cafe. However, she is pushed into the middle of Madame Claw's where she is attacked by Claw. Sam, Fong and Hon use bright lights to distract Claw and the rest of the mogwai, which allows Elle to grab Gizmo and run with him. Sam walks up to Gizmo and Elle, telling his mogwai friend that he would never leave him again.

Huge Claw

Desperate to get Gizmo back, Claw made herself enormous so she could destroy Shanghai to get him back.

Sam tells Elle that they should steal the knife of creation back so they could turn all the bad mogwai into good ones. Elle says that she agrees, so her, Sam and Gizmo declare that they would do it for Nuwa. Sam manages to knock Claw down, but she takes the knife back and uses it to become enormous. She starts attacking everyone as Sam, Gizmo and Elle leave Madame Claw's.

Claw starts destroying everything in her path, as Fong is able to save Elle from a falling structure. Sam and Hon see this, trying to lift the structure and worrying about Fong.

Fong saves Elle

Fong saved Elle's life when Claw became huge.

Sam, Hon, Elle, and Gizmo uncover Fong, who had saved Elle's life. She is weak, but okay, so Elle says that they should go as they are searched for. Elle thanks Fong for saving her life, but the latter mentions she only did it so she would become a better person. Sam says that they could now move on to step four of his plan, which involved stealing back the clay knife.

Gizmo tells Sam that he could be bait for Claw, which he says could work, so that they could grab the knife back. Sam mentions that that had happened before, which shocks Hon. Sam says that Nuwa had used the knife in order to turn them back into good mogwai, but Elle says that Nuwa was a god. However, Sam says that they were the only ones that knew what to do. With that said, Sam asks Hon and Fong to go back home, as Elle hands them a whistle they could blow if they got into trouble.

Claw holds on to the knife, as Sam, Elle and Gizmo watch her. As they are about to start their plan in order to get the knife back, however, Claw swallows it. Sam says that he could make a laxative, but Elle suggests tricking her into eating explosives. As they talk, Gizmo leaves and throws himself into Claw's mouth, causing her to choke.

Sam runs across the city looking for Gizmo. However, when he finally reaches his friend, he sees that Riley has his friend in his arms and the knife in his mouth. Elle complains, but told that they could not possibly stop a god.

Riley opens up bright portal

After getting the knife back, Riley created a portal to Tahiti, which shone a painful bright light for the mogwai.

As Elle and Sam rush towards Riley, he uses the knife to grow his hands back. Gizmo bites him in order to escape from his hands. As Riley begins to declare himself a god, Claw sneaks up from behind him and grabs him. Riley congratulates her for her boldness, saying that he would fulfill her dream of seeing the world, but she refuses, crushing him. However, Riley opens up a portal to Tahiti, which shines a bright light and causes all the mogwai excruciating pain. Claw lets Riley go as she orders every single one of them to kill Greene. As she begins to melt, she reaches for him, but ends up exploding. Sam and Elle gag as Riley walks up to them, repeating that he is a god. He binds them with rope and Elle provokes him, which Sam and Riley say is not a good idea. Elle says he does nobody any good by bragging, but Riley says that he would earn respect by using the knife to turn everyone into cockroaches. He says that after destroying Shanghai, the rest of the world would have to respect him.

Riley killed by knife

Riley was killed by the knife when he turned himself into a cockroach.

Elle keeps provoking Riley, saying that he was crushing them to death with them, but that it might be better for him to say "hug me, daddy." Sam says that if he does not have perfect focus, he could do something wrong. As Riley tortures them, they keep taunting him. When Riley uses the knife, they keep telling him not to think of turning himself into a cockroach and Gizmo joins them. Riley spits out the magical pearls he had swallowed with people in them and he turns into a cockroach, which is killed by the knife falling back to the ground.

Evil mogwai approach Sam, Elle, and Gizmo. Sam wields the knife and is given a look of confidence by his friends. Sam concentrates and uses the knife, which sends out a big shockwave, turning all the evil mogwai into their normal selves.

Sam hugs his grandfather

After Riley's death, Sam's grandfather came back.

In front of Sam, a pearl reveals Sam's grandfather, who hugs Sam. All of the other pearls begin to show more people that had been swallowed by Greene, including Nuwa and Greene's personal chef. Sam tells his grandfather about everything that had happened, which makes him sad since he could not see everything with him.

Nuwa says that the most difficult part would be gathering all the mogwai, who are led by Sam and Elle to the Valley of Jade once again. The celestial administrator shows up, saying that the city had been destroyed and he walks in the portal, followed by Nuwa. Sam asks his grandfather if he wanted to go to the Valley of Jade like he had wanted to his whole life, but he is told that he had had enough adventure being pearled up.

Gizmo allowed to return

Gizmo was allowed to return to Sam and his family by Nuwa.

Nuwa says goodbye to Sam, calling for Gizmo, who says goodbye to Elle. Sam approaches Gizmo and mentions that they could go back to their normal lives, even though he would be missing their adventures. As Gizmo approaches the portal, he turns around one last time and says goodbye sadly. Nuwa asks Gizmo if he really does not want to leave Shanghai and allows him to go back to Sam, saying that she would trust humanity once again and would not be returning if it does not go well.

At the Wing Family Medicine shop, Sam and Elle work as Hon and Fong mention that they would probably end up working for the children someday. Gizmo watches happily as Sam's grandfather asks who could help him with deliveries.
