Quick recap

Dracula wants to retire and leave the hotel to Mavis and Johnny, but lies about a law that would only let monsters own it. To help Johnny, Van Helsing uses a ray that turns monsters into humans and the other way around. The ray turns Johnny into a dragon and Dracula into a human, and breaks the crystal that powers it. The pair head to South America for another crystal, and their friends follow. Along the way Dracula and Johnny start to understand each other, but Johnny's transformation keeps getting worse.
