Get out of my bed, fatso.

- (grunts) Oh! Oh...
- (gagging)

Oh, my God. Oh, my, God, Mickey!

Mickey, help!

- (screams)
- (saw buzzing)

(shrieking)

- (laughs)
- Aah! What the hell's

wrong with you guys?!
You could've k*lled me!

No, no, no. If we wanted
to k*ll you, you'd be dead.

What's with the Obama mask?

Oh, yeah, that was just
the only mask I could find.

Just a little Halloween fun.

- Oh, I frickin' hate Halloween.
- What?!

Oh, what are you, a cop?
It's the best day of the year.

Yeah, it makes Christmas
look like Hanukkah.

Of course you like it. It's
a holiday based entirely

- on free handouts.
- I'm not sure if you're aware,

but there is a w*r on
fun in this country.

First they take our nudity,

and then our profanity,
and then our v*olence.

- Who's they?
- Them! The enemy. You know?

The big dogs, the... the fat cats.

- Mm, makes me sick.
- Course it makes you sick.

It makes everybody sick.
But not tonight, sir. No way.

Not Halloween. This is the
one night... the one night...

Where authority means nothing, okay?

Yeah, I'm gonna transform this place

into a brothel of sin.

- What?
- Oh, yeah. He's really good at it, too.

I think you're gonna really
like it. You should see

what he does to his
apartment every Halloween.

Yeah. Finally, I have a
playground worthy of my talents.

Absolutely not. People already
think this house is haunted.

I refuse to participate.

Um... refusal denied.

Hey, I'm serious. It's not happening!

Over my dead body!

Where you want this fog machine?

Oh, uh, pop it over by those

buckets of pigs' blood, right there.

You're really allowing this?

Why wouldn't I? This party's

the perfect way to cement my legacy.

What legacy?

Chip, I'm probably the coolest person

that ever went to Lockwood
but, thanks to our parents,

my reputation's taken a slight hit.

I just need to make sure
that people remember me

for the right reasons. And not just now,

but ten years, years from now.

This party's gonna be a monument

to the legend that is Sabrina Pemberton.

Healthy self-image.

Hey! Halloween, baby.

I got pounds of raw goat
meat and cow intestines,

ooh, and a buttload of chicken gizzards.

Stick 'em right there, I'll
go through 'em later.

Okay. Oh, I got to find
a Halloween costume.

Oh, Jimmy and I got you covered.
You know what we do? We got

this tradition where you got
to choose each other's Halloween

costume, and whatever gets
chosen, you got to go with it.

- You got to commit.
- Oh, okay, do me.

- Yeah, you want in on that?
- Yeah, yeah.

All right.

Fernando Valenzuela. Right?

- Who the hell is that?
- Who the hell are you?

He's only, like, one of
the best pitchers of all time.

- I've never heard of him.
- People will love it, trust me.

- My turn.
- Randy Johnson.

You guys making these names up?

Don't do pitcher just
'cause I did pitcher.

No, I'm not. You inspired me.

You know, I mean, you got these...

long, floppy limbs and this, like...

emaciated face.

Uh... No, like, in a good way. No...

(quietly): I find Randy
Johnson very attractive.

All right, whatever. Alba, do Jimmy.

Okay, uh...

Garbage.

- SABRINA: (chuckles) Nice.
- Garbage what?

Like the garbage man to drive a truck?

No. No man. No truck. Just garbage.

- Nice. Jimmy's garbage.
- Yeah. Okay.

Hey, what about me? I want to play.

I don't know. You can't go
throwing one of your bitch fits

if you don't get sexy ladybug.

If I'm wearing it, it's gonna be sexy.

Well, we'll see about that, Steve Jobs.

- Oh. That's good.
- (Jimmy chuckles)

Also a legend. Makes perfect sense.

I don't feel so good. My
butt keeps throwing up.

Oh, no! I can't get butt
sick. Uh... not for the party.

Jimmy, can you quarantine him?

Oh, yeah, on it. I'm immune.

I can't remember the last time
my butt wasn't throwing up.

But what about Halloween?
I want to be a ghoul

and eat all the candy.

Well, the candy's not going anywhere.

Once we plug up your
pipes, you can eat it

till your butt starts
throwing up all over again.

- Boom.
- Right.

Aw. Feel better, baby.

(doorbell rings)

Hey there, little guy.

Kind of early to be
trick-or-treating, isn't it?

Wait a second, I remember this guy.

Didn't I smash you?

Oh! Yeah, that's right.
Man, I would think

that tasing a resident would
be grounds for dismissal.

- Suspension.
- Hmm.

Which, as of tonight, has been lifted.

I'm back in the field, where I belong.

Well, everybody loves
a good comeback story.

- Thanks for stopping by.
- Not so fast.

I received an anonymous complaint

about a party here, tonight.

Hmm.

What?

- I told you: no parties.
- Mm-hmm.

Thank you for your
concern. I appreciate it.

But we are not having a party.

All set. Eight kegs, four
taps, pounds of ice.

Sign here, please.

(pen scratching on paper)

I enjoy drinking.

I like the escape.

I'm warning you.

- Look, even if we were having a party...
- Which we are not.

Which we are not...
There would be nothing

you could do about it, because
you're weak and insignificant.

And you certainly wouldn't be invited,

- 'cause you would ruin the vibe.
- (scoffs)

See, that's where you're wrong.

It's Halloween tonight.

- The police are stretched thin.
- Mm-hmm?

So within the walls of this
gated community, I am the law.

And if I hear so much
as one noise complaint,

- Uh-huh.
- By God, I will rain down...

Oh, Chip.

Now, why'd you go and
do something like that?

Very bad idea, this thing you did.

I warned you guys.

We're not throwing a
party. It's a stupid holiday

for stupid people. I
won't be a part of it.

Why are you walking towards me? Stop.

Stop! Stand down! I command you.

Don't make me do something I'll regret.

Are you insane? Let me
out! This is ridiculous.

Told you you'd be
participating. Happy Halloween.

- Release me! Release me now!

Classic bloody bowl. Yeah.

Hot garbage, coming through.

- Ooh!
- Yeah. I went method.

I've already gone to the
bathroom twice in this thing.

Okay. Normally that would gross me out,

you get excited about this?

ALBA: What is that?

- JIMMY: That is Ben.
- ALBA: Ugh.

- Rigged up a baby monitor.
- He looks awful.

Well, I slapped some
ghoulish makeup on him

- once he passed out.
- How is he sleeping through this?

Put, uh, some cold
medication in some candy...

Sucked it right down.

Oh. Nice. Good thinking.
What else you got?

Uh, let's see. I got a lot. Oh.

See that nerd over there by
what he thinks is a speaker?

- Mm-hmm.
- It's not. It's a blood cannon.

- Watch this.

- See ya, nerd.
- ALBA: What's he doing?

- What? Okay, what's he doing?
- Damn it.

I got a glitch.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

- I got to go fix it.
- Aah!

- Oh.
- (laughs)

I don't remember Jobs doing shorts.

Think different.

Don't know what that means.

So what do you think?

Is this a party worthy of the
legendary Sabrina Pemberton?

Yeah, but this is just the opening act.

The main event's right over there.

Damn, Peter's not a boy anymore.

- Mm.
- Actually, he is.

He's a freshman.

You're gonna nail a freshman?

Not just a freshman.

The freshman... Matty Pruitt.

After I sink my teeth into him,

he'll be talking about me
for the next four years,

and that is how you cement a legacy.

Your mind is a frightening place.

(laughing): Oh.

It looks like someone's moving in.

- (Alba and Mickey laugh)
- All right.

That's not part of the plan.

- I like this. That pleases me.
- (laughing): Yes.

Damn it! There's
supposed to be a skeleton

tearing through here on
a zip line, a real one.

Where'd you get a real skeleton?

Oh, a vet clinic down in Hartford.

It's actually a raccoon, but
it looks just like a little kid.

Jimmy, just let me out of the cage.

Oh, but Mick would eat
me alive if I did that.

But I'll tell you what I can do.

I can give you this.

What is that?

Well, people will respect you more

if they think you
chose to be in the cage.

I am not wearing a monkey costume.

Hmm. Suit yourself.

I got to go fix a broken breaker board.

This is a disaster.

ALBA: Come on, bring it!

- MICKEY: And the pitch.

- Oh! Not my boob! Aah!

Lighten up. You're fine.
Put it back up on the head.

Hold still this time.

- Oh, no, no, no.
- Every single one of you, get out!

- Yeah, you heard me. Let's go!

Yes, I am, and I do.
