“Because everybody needs a friend.”
Imagine if you'd had a six-foot tall monster to help you through the rough times when you were 11! Willy is terrified about moving into the family's new house. He's convinced it's filled with evil space aliens out to get him.

In the end, Gooby fulfills Willy's initial wish by bringing Willy and his dad together in a touching and exciting climax.
