SHEEN:
The time has come

for a momentous decision which
will affect us all forever.

What are we going to be
for Halloween?

Llama Boy.

Carl, you've been
Llama Boy

for the last
eight years.

Yeah-- plus, Llama Boy's
not scary, he's just creepy.

You're supposed to be scary
on Halloween.

I know, so this year
I'm adding a cape.

Why do we hang with him?

JIMMY:
I suppose you're going to be
Ultra Lord again.

No.

I wore out my costume.

I wore it every day

when I watched the Ultra Lord
Show at 5:00, 7:00 and 10:30,

with repeats
at 9:00, 11:00, 1:30 and 6:00.

Do you guys ever feel
a little weird?

You know, still dressing up
in costumes.

When you put it
that way...
Now that you
mention it...

Can't say that I do.

No way, man, it's great.

This year I want to be
something really scary.

You could wear a cape.

I said, really scary.

You could be Miss Fowl.

( shivering, yelling )

( screaming )

( snarling )

( screaming )

( monster snarling )

( yelps )

Hi, guys.

Hey, my favorite
monster movie is on.

Octopus Man.

He's got eight arms.

Do you want to watch with me?

It's the three-and-half-hour
director's cut

with the alternate ending
where he grows a ninth arm.

Uh, no thanks, Dad.

I wanted to be Octopus Man
for Halloween

when I was a lad,

but mother wouldn't buy
me the costume.

Said it was too scary
for a 16-year-old.

I'll never forgive her for that.

Never!

Run! Run, Octopus Man, run!

They're going to get you.

Poor misunderstood creature.

So who are you going
to be this year, Jim?

Albert Einstein?

Jet Fusion?

That smart guy
in the wheelchair

that talks with
a keyboard?

Actually, I'm not going
to trick-or-treat this year.

( gasping )

I don't know.

Halloween is for kids.

But we are kids
and it's Halloween.

Yeah, Jimmy.

Think of the bubble gum,
the tiny chocolate bars,

the artificial flavors,
red dye number five.

And it's all free.

I've taken that
into consideration,

so I've been working on
a little project.

Ooh, the plot thickens.

Gentlemen,
I have a proposition.

I'll make you guys really scary
for Halloween

in exchange for 25%
of your candy.

You think I'm a fool?

Call it 50, we got a deal.

Deal!

To the...

Oh, oh, Jimmy--
can I say it

this time, please?

All right, Carl,
go ahead.

To the place where Jimmy
has all this neat stuff

and where he invents things
and then something goes wrong

and we have a big adventure.

To the lab!

This is my 27th greatest
invention ever.

Behold, the Neutronic
Monster Maker.

Sweet name.

JIMMY:
Step under the cone of creation,

and it'll realign your molecules

to make you look like
that monster--

down to each horrifying atom.

Cool!

But Sheen,
you got to promise

that when you're scary,
you won't scare me.

My word is my bond.

I've downloaded
every monster imaginable.

I have 102 different
monsters to choose from.

Here are the choices.

A werewolf...

That's it-- I want
to be the wolf guy.

Sheen, I have 101
other monsters.

I know, Jimmy,
but it's been

my lifelong dream
to be covered in hair.

All right, werewolf it is.

What about you, Carl?

The Hunchback of Notre Dame?

Uh... too hunchy.

The blob?

Too blobby.

Phantom of the Opera?

Too Operaey.

Frankenstein?

Frahnkenshteen.

No, I don't like his wardrobe.

I'm more of a summer.

( gasps )

Who's the guy
with the cape?

Dracula.

Yeah, he has a cape.

I want to be Dracula.

All right, Dracula
and a werewolf it is.

( electricity crackling )

Wolf me up! Wolf me up!

( machine thrumming )

( howling )

Yeah!

It's werewolf time.

( snarling and growling )

( howling )

Now me! Now me!

Blah!

( giggling ):
I am Dracula.

How's my cape look?

We look awesome.

You sure you don't want
to be a monster, Jimmy?

No thanks, I'll just enjoy
the fruits of your labor.

Fruit?

I want candy.

Come on, let's ride.

By using the hover car,
we can go to more houses,

which of course
means more candy.

Hey, Jimmy.

Has anyone ever
told you you're
a boy genius?

Enough with the chitchat.

This hombre lobo wants candy.

( howling )

I believe this is going to be a
Halloween we shan't ever forget.

Uh, Jimbo.

Have you seen my suede
duck feet with the...

Ah...

Ow!

Golly.

Hey, where the...

Where the heck am I?

Oh, no.

I must have fallen
into a parallel dimension

with no hope of ever finding...

( gasps )

A big game.

Oh, I want to play.

Name that monster.

Spin the wheel.

Round, round and round it goes,

where it stops, nobody knows.

You know,
I bet if I pull this lever

something really fun happens.

Where's my prize?

Does it come out
of that umbrellaey thingy?

Hugh!

This year instead of candy
I'm giving out healthy snacks.

Oh, don't you think
the children will just love

my prune puffs and banana balls?

( growling )

Well, aren't you a little
grumpy Gus tonight?

( snarls )

What a wonderful costume.

But I thought you
were going to be

the Duck Man
of La Mancha.

( growling )

( choking )

( growling )

Well there's no need
to get in a huff.

Now, will you light
the jack-o-lantern, please?

I'll get my costume on.

Oh, you're going to love it.

Be right back.

( grunting )

Fire! Fire!

( growling ):
Fire bad.

( head banging off door frame )

( shrieks )

BOTH:
Trick or treat.

Well, what marvelous costumes.

Don't you look darling.

Thanks.
Thanks.

Oh, I used to love
to dress up for Halloween.

One year I was a butterfly.

Then I was an elf,
a sprite, an ice skater.

I was Peter Pan six times.

Michelangelo's David,

and I got to tell you,
that was chilly.

( shivers )

This is great.

We got so much candy,

we're going
to be sick for weeks.

I don't like the candy
you have to unwrap.

I always cut myself
on the shiny paper.

Ow!

See? I cut myself.

I'm bleeding.

Medic!

Carl, don't be such a big baby.

Mmm... not bad.

Tastes like cherry soda
with a lot of vinegar in it.

Mmm... mmm... boy, that is good.

I mean... mmm... mmm...

( Carl noisily sucking finger )

CARL:
That is really good.

Hey, try some you guys.

It's way better
than Purple Flurp.

No way-- I'm not
drinking your blood.

Yeah, no thanks, Carl.

Mmm... mmm...

( with accent ):
I want more.

I need blood.

You need counseling.

Must have blood!

( dogs howling in distance )

Listen to them,
the children of the night.

What music they make.

I must join them.

Bye, you guys.

( with accent ):
See you later.

That was weird...

but totally awesome.

I want to change into a bat,
I want to fly.

Make me a bat, Jimmy,
make me a bat.

What... What...

I didn't do that.

Carl just changed into
a vampire bat on his own.

It's Halloween--
what do you expect?

The monster maker
must have mutated

Carl's molecular structure
on the subatomic level,

altering his DNA.

Hmm...

And now again in English.

He's a real vampire.

Cool!

Not cool.

If Carl turned
into a real vampire,

t-then you could turn
into a real...

( dogs howling in distance )

( Sheen snarling and grunting )

( snarling, growling )

Uh, S-Sheen,
I think we'd better

go back to the lab.

( snarling )

Or not.

( yelps )

Got to... fly.

This is going to be a memorable
Halloween, Goddard...

if we survive.

( snarling and growling )

Blah!

( growling )

I can't believe Carl and Sheen

turned into a real vampire
and werewolf.

I've got to capture them
and turn them back.

Goddard, access vampire data
so I know what I'm dealing with.

( barking )

JIMMY:
"Vampires feed on

"the blood of the living.

"They can turn their victims
into vampires

"and are repelled by garlic.

"They can only be destroyed
by a wooden stake

driven into their heart."

( whines )

What have you got on werewolves?

WOMAN ( speaking mysteriously ):
Even a man who is pure at heart

and says his prayers by night,

may become a wolf when
the wolfsbane blooms

and the autumn
moon is bright.

Uh... hi, Miss Fowl.

How do you know
about werewolves?

I was married
to one,

but that's a story
for another day.

Uh, anything else
I should know?

Well, they can turn
other people into
werewolves

by biting them,

and they can only
be destroyed by a silver...

b*llet?

Cane, spoon, hairbrush--

anything silver.

Okay,
happy Halloween.

Don't forget to floss.

Come on, boy.

We've got work to do.

Good evening.

Oh!

Carl? You scared me.

Sorry.

I thought you were
going to be Lama Boy

for the 900th time.

Lama Boy is--
how you say--
old school.

May I say, you look
enchanting tonight.

Thanks.

I'm Muffy the
Vampire Annihilator.

( hisses )

Whatever.

Have you seen Libby?

I'm supposed to meet her
and she's late.

I could wring
her neck.

Speaking of necks,

I couldn't help
but notice

how lovely your neck
looks tonight.

My neck?

What's
your problem?

Look into my eyes.

I mean, if you don't mind.

Why the heck would...

Look into my eyes!

Yes, master.

What is your blood type?

A-positive, master.

Mmm, how positively delicious.

( Carl hisses, Cindy screams )

Goddard, set
your audio locators

for any werewolf howls
or vampire screams.

( werewolf growls )

( werewolf growling )

( growling )

Hi, Sheen.

Cool costume.

I'm a model.

How do I look?

Tasty.

Thanks.

You got any meat
on you?

Prime rib,
filet minion, rump roast?

Do I look like
a butcher?

Have you seen any livestock--
cows, pigs, sheeps?

You're usually weird,

but tonight you got
a little extra going on.

I need meat!

Don't look at me.

I'm a vegetarian.

I knew it.

Carl owes me two bucks.

He thought you
were a Republican.

Vegetarian means
I don't eat meat.

Oh...

But you are meat.

Well, yeah, if you want
to get gross about it.

I do.

How about a bite?

Of what?

You.

( Sheen howls, Libby screams )

( Goddard barking )

We're getting close.

I just hope
we're not too late.

( mumbling )

Wish... I... could...
walk... faster.

( growls )

Oh, hiya, Neutron.

Thought I'd fiddle around
with the old Stradivarius.

Any requests?

( mumbles )

I'm not familiar with that one.

Can you hum a few bars?

( growling )

That's catchy.

Who wrote it?

( mumbles )

Never heard of him.

JUDY:
Hugh Neutron!

What on Earth
are you doing?

I need you at home

to help me pass out
fruit snacks.

( mumbles ):
Me want you.

Hugh, please use
complete sentences.

( mumbles )

You sound like you have
a mouth full of marbles.

( mumbles ):
Mine.

Hugh,
what are you doing?

This isn't our
rumba-lesson night.

( sighs )

I wish I was married.

JIMMY:
There's Carl and Cindy.

Cindy,
stay away from Carl.

He's a vampire.

A real, live--
I mean, dead...

( hisses )

( gasps )
( barks )

Cindy has joined me.

You, too, must join me.

It only takes one bite.

( hisses )

Uh... uh...

Hey, look, the Red Cross
is having a blood drive.

Where?
Where?

Make like a bat
and follow me.

Yes, master.

( Jimmy screaming )

( screams )

( screaming )

No... no!

No!

( sighs )

Looks like Lucky Tony's House
of Garlic saved our lives.

But we can't stay here
all night.

Let's sneak back to the
hover car through the alley.

( spotlights whirring )

( werewolf growling )

That's not good.

( growling )
( growling )

Sheen must have
bitten Libby.

We're just good friends,
and you better not have rabies.

Don't worry.

I've had all my sh*ts.

Thanks for turning me
into a werewolf, Jimmy.

It's awesome.

Oh, except for the fleas.

Hey, Sheen, you said we were
going to get something to eat.

How about Jimmy?

( both growl as Jimmy screams )

( both whimpering )

( breathing heavily )

Looks like the Hi Ho Silver
jewelry store saved our lives.

JUDY:
Oh...

Mom? Dad?

( growling )

Your father's not
himself tonight.

He must have used
the monster machine.

( mumbles )

Stop that.

She hate me.

Hi,
Mrs. Neutron.

You look so pretty,

and full of blood.

Thank you, Car...

What?

Look into my eyes, please.

( growling ):
She mine.

Take a number, flathead.

I'm going to bite you
on the neck.

Ow!

A rumble-- cool.

CARL:
Okay, hold on.

You want
a piece of me?

You're messing with
the wrong fat vampire.

( growling, hissing, mumbling )

( hisses )

( growls )

Did you do something
to your hair?

No, are you using
teeth whitener?

Look into my eyes.

No, way.

You look into my eyes

while I take a big old
bite out of you.

( growling, hissing )

This is pretty cool,

but I have to change
them back to normal

before they k*ll
each other.

( growling, hissing, grunting )

I can't get them all
back to the lab by myself.

There's only one way
to handle this.

Come on.

Hold still, Sheen.

I'm trying to bite you.

No, I want to bite you.

Copycat.

I'm not a cat-- I'm a wolf.

( whistles )

Stop fighting!

You should be ashamed.

You work this out
among yourselves.

I'm going home
to hand out
fruit snacks.

I'll see you later,
Hugh Neutron.

SHEEN:
She's right.

Why are we attacking each other?

We should be going after
innocent townspeople.

Who wants to rampage
through town?

ALL:
Me! I do!

Let's go.

I have to find something
that can take on two werewolves,

two vampires
and a reanimated corpse.

Ha-hah-- that's it.

I'll lower
the replication frequency

so my DNA doesn't change
like the others.

Goddard, initiate
transformation sequence.

( Sam gasps )

Great flipping toadstools.

Real monsters.

We got to destroy them.

Quick, go get some
angry villagers,

some torches, garlic,
some silver junk,

and a beautiful
red-head named Tessy.

We don't need
a beautiful
red-haired woman.

Speak for yourself.

( barking, whimpering )

Don't worry,
Goddard.

Everything's going
to be fine, I hope.

Back,
you monsters.

SAM:
Get out of here.

This is a nice,
quiet neighborhood.

( crowd yelling angrily )

Ah, garlic.

( yelling )

Fire.

( spoons tapping )

Silver teaspoons.

Sorry, Sam,
I couldn't find you

a red-haired woman
named Tessy.

Ain't that the story of my life.

Oh, well-- get those monsters.

( crowd yelling angrily )

SHEEN:
Come on, let's hide over there.

Set fire to the windmill.

Burn it,
and the evil monsters with it.

CROWD:
Yeah!

Hey, hi, excuse us.

Playing through.

Burn, baby, burn.

We don't
want you here.

Um, unfortunately
I think this is the part

where the monsters die.

What is that?

It's horrible.

It's hideous.

It's Jimmy?

No, it's...

Octopus Man!

Me love you.

I've had it.

Flying octopuses is where
I draw the line.

Yeah... run!

( crowd screaming )

( monsters scream )

Hey, I don't want
to drink blood anymore.

Yuck-- me, neither.

I've lost all desire
to consume human flesh.

Hey, I can speak
in complete sentences.

Now, where's my scary
little Sugarbooger?

Right here, you monster.

Who's up for banana balls
and prune puffs?

( group expresses disgust )

We want candy.

We never got to go
trick-or-treating.

And we left behind
all our candy

when we changed
into monsters.

I bet it's gone by now.

No candy on Halloween?

That is scary.

JIMMY:
Don't worry.

I can fix that.

( doorbells ringing )

Trick or treat.
