Explanation:

To convert the sentence to passive voice, we use the structure "object + be - verb (in the same tense as the original verb) + past participle + by + subject". The original sentence is in the past tense ("watched"), so the be - verb should be "was" (since the object "the gargoyles" is plural, but "gargoyles" is a collective noun here and can take a singular verb in some cases, or we can consider the correct form based on the passive voice rules for past tense). The past participle of "watch" is "watched".

Answer:

The gargoyles were watched by Undyne for a couple of hours.
The gargoyles was watched by Undyne for a couple of hours. (Note: In some grammar references, both "were" and "was" can be used depending on the emphasis on the group as a whole or the individuals. But "were" is more commonly used for plural nouns in passive voice for past tense.)
