this place up first.

Yeah, but trick-or-treating
time’s now, the time’s now!

\h\hNo, we’re not going
trick-or-treating untilthis place is cleaned up.

\h\h\hI’m not leaving
this place like this.

Look, there’s crumbs everywhere.



Just imagine we come home
with a bag full of treats,

and we put it on a clean ground.

We categorize all the candy.

Yeah, we can’t, man,

\h\hbecause there’s not
gonna be any candy left.

\hWe gotta go while
the getting’s good.You know that.

No, this place is
\htoo messy, Matt.

Yeah, you know what I realized?

\hWe got a fucking
Bolshevik in here.

You’re just trying to
\hget out of cleaning.

\h\h\hLook what you’re doing,
you’re making more of a mess!

And I’m gonna get a bag full!

Look what you did to the pillow!

It’s my bag!My favourite pillow.



\h\hWhen I come back,
it’s gonna be so big.

It’s gonna be a plump bitch bag!

Full!

Why don’t we just take
it down a little bit.

Sure, you’re right, okay.

No, we’re gonna clean now!\h\h\h\h\hWe’re going
trick-or-treating now!

\h- No, now trick-treat!

\hWe’re not going
trick-or-treating.

Yep!

\h\h\hNo, we’re gonna--

You know what?

\h\h\hThe Halloween
spirit has left you,

and now you will be haunted.

Rivoli plan, Matt!

Just think about it, Bird.

\hYou get up there in my body
and you start playing the piano!

\h\hThey don’t know that
you’re the piano player.

They don’t know us well?

\hIt’s not gonna make
any difference at all.’Kay, what if we go
to the Rivoli and--

No! We’re figuring out
\hhow to switch back!

That’s it!

You got a fly on you?

Because the bugs are
attracted to how...

(Sniffing)

Alright, so we’ll switch back.

We’ll work on switching back.

\h\h\hSo how about a
little bit of music?

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- Pssh!

For what?

Little inspiration!

Okay, fine.

Okay, ready?

I’m only doing this once.

(Piano playing)

\h\h\h\hOkay, so we know
that the book is cursed.

\h\h\h\hYou’re playing
songs from the book...

\h\hRight, and then you--

\hWe play that song again, and
then we’re gonna switch back.\h\h\hBird, do you
understand that--

\h\hI got it, yeah, okay,
I’ll play the song again.
