What in God's name are you wearing? Oh,
I'm putting together my costume for the

Halloween dance.

Oh, so you're going as a stripper?

No, I am a Catholic schoolgirl.

Who's dressed?

Guys, no one is going to think I look
like a stripper, okay?

Hey, look, it's Misty. Get ready for a
third and final dance on the main stage.

Jay, where are you going after
Halloween?

You know what? I don't do Halloween.

It's not that cool.

Really? But Halloween's everything you
love.

Pagan rituals, devil worship, and fudge.

Just drop it. How about that? So, Mom,
how come C .J. doesn't like Halloween?

Rory, it's private and painful, and he
really doesn't want to talk about it. I

think we should respect that. Thank you.
Yeah.

I'm sorry. It's just something.

It's not that funny to me. Come on, C
.J.

Clint being such a baby. It was 1979 and
C .J. went to his first Halloween

dance.

Hey.

Spooky, spooky.

Well, well, well.

I must be an English hunting dog. Good
night.

a dancing cowboy.

But they had to go and make it gay.

Oh, my God. How does a slut like Jenny
Jenkins even get a guy like Pete?

I mean, look at him. He's like a work of
art.

He's like that famous statue, the Dave.

Bridget? Yeah?

You really have to start the student
council meeting.

Can't you start without me, Matt?

No, because by some cruel quid to fate,
I am the vice president.

Not the president, and according to the
bylaws, we can't start without you.

The president.

Did you see that? He just looked at me.
Yes, he too can't believe you're

elected.

Let's go.

Good morning, council people.

Sorry I'm late.

Yes, we were very busy trying to figure
out if Pete gave us a look.

Oh, he did. Don't worry.

All right, so I know we're here to plan
the Halloween dance, and I've given this

a lot of thought.

Picture this.

A sunken pirate ship at the bottom of an
evil sea. Rivers of blood.

Skeletons sword fighting with legions of
soulless men.

Our budget is $173.

Okay, then orange and black balloons.

Moving on. Before we move on, one little
suggestion.

It might not be spooky as orange and
black balloons, but considering our

budget... Oh, sorry.

Official business.

Hello. Did you see them?

Did you see what he was wearing?

Did you see what she was wearing?

Did you see what I was wearing?

Okay, so where were we?

Well, Max and I have an idea about the
Halloween dance. Oh, that reminds me. I

have this great idea. It is going to
blow you away.

Sorry, one second.

You did?

She did?

Did you see what I was wearing?

Hold on.

What?

I saw something that was going to blow
us away. Oh, right, right, right. As she

saw Pete look at me in the hall, she
thinks it means something.

Tell me everything now.

I can't believe she's president.

Oh, thank you. Shut up.

I can't believe you two are sisters.

No. Thank you.

Hey there, Halloween.

You're the one jumping the gun in
costume.

You're two days early.

Oh, it's no costume, my friend.

I've been hired as head of security for
the Halloween dance.

Although I did get this at a costume
shop.

Gone knots not available?

That's funny. It's real fun.

You know, I've worn the badge before.

You were a mall cop.

For three weeks?

Yeah, three crime -free weeks.

that there's a tradition of freshmen
pulling pranks at the old dance.

Know anything about this?

No, I just know that pranks are wrong.

Dead wrong.

It's real mature, Grandpa. Good one.

Hey, it was the kid's idea.

You know, he's got a devilish streak.

Yeah, well, that better be the end of
it. Oh, I'm sure it is.

I think he was just showing off when I
heard him talking to his friends about

blowing up the giant pumpkin at the
dance.

Really?

So the Hennessy boy is going to try to
pull a prank on my watch.

Well, let's just say this Halloween,
he's going to be in for a real treat.

I guess the little guy just put them all
over the house.

No, that was me. What's on TV?

Cherry, we're never going to believe
what happened.

Your little student council friend, Max,
he's out to get me.

Bridget. No, no, today after the council
meeting, that creep went to Principal

Gibb and told him I wasn't qualified to
be president.

By creep, I assume you mean sexy boy
toy.

Why are you here? What are you doing in
my bathroom?

Trying on scrunchies.

Max and I are making decorations for the
dance.

How dare you go to the principal about
me?

Hey, he likes to know what's going on,
and I'm fond of telling him.

And if you don't start treating this
president thing a little more seriously,

you're out and I'm in. Can you believe
this?

Well, you agree with this?

Face it, Bridget, you care more about
boys and phone calls than you do about

dance.

just leaving. But only because I have a
clarinet lesson.

Candy apple?

Thank you, Mrs. Hennessey.

I'll save it till after my lesson.

Makes my reeds sticky.

So, what's this all about?

These two don't think I'm capable of
being president.

She's not. She's an unfocused
scatterbrain.

Gatterbrain? Oh, you just wait. You just
wait till...

Dance is Friday night.

I know.

No, no, wait. You on the ladder, point
the orange light towards the stage.

Pumpkin people, I want him facing out.

Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I asked for
twice as many severed limbs. This is

all they sent us.

Well, put them in half.

So, am I focused enough for you, Max, or
should we call the principal? I must

say, it's pretty impressive.

Yeah, good luck keeping that up.

Hey, Pete.

Hi, me dweeb.

We're like brothers.

Yeah, like that's going to throw me off.

Hey, Bridget. Hi, Pete.

Listen, I don't know what you're doing
for the dance, but I'm going to be there

alone. Jenny and I broke up.

You did?

I mean, I'm so sorry.

Well, great. Then I'll probably see you
there.

Well, like I said, creepy friend and
sister.

That light looks perfect now.

Hey.

You know, when you're ready to go, I can
give you a ride to the dance.

Mom, I have a problem.

What's wrong?

This really hot guy likes me.

I hate it when that happens.

I'm really trying to focus on running
this dance, and I know he's going to be

there tonight, and I know it's going to
mess me up.

Well, don't let it.

Just do your job and then deal with him
on Monday.

No, no, I can't. See, he broke up with
slutty Jenny Jenkins, and now he's

available. But Jenny told Alexa, who
told Haley, who told Ashley, nose job

Ashley, not pimple Ashley, who told me
that she really wants him back.

Really?

And when did you hear all this?

During my algebra final.

And when you got a D on? That teacher is
so out to get me.

I just, I can't let all this Pete stuff
distract me. Carrie and Max already

think I'm a complete scatterbrain.
Bridget, when you want to be, you are

most focused person in the world.

I've been shopping with you the day
after Thanksgiving.

You're like a laser.

You hit the shoes and then the coats and
you hit the tops and the purses.

Mom, mom, mom, mom. The coats come last
because you don't want to drag them

around all day and then you start with
purses and shoes so you can match them

together.

See what I'm saying?

Just look at tonight like one giant trip
to the mall.

Except Pete is a coat.

He comes last.

Oh, but Mom, I'm cold.

This is so cold.

Who are you going to pepper spray?

I think the question is, Who am I not
going to pepper spray?

So, Mom, what's your costume going to
be?

Well, if I have to be there as the
school nurse, I thought I'd go with

Nightingale.

The mom from the Brady Bunch?

Yeah.

Hey, everybody, look, it's a Hamburglar.

I'm part of a chain gang.

I know, by day. But at night, you steal
hamburgers.

Are you going to be okay here by
yourself?

Yeah, sure. I'm going to put a big bowl
of candy out on the porch with a note

that says, take one, and then I'm going
to watch The Great Escape.

I prefer the Dirty Dozen.

It's a chick flick.

Not the one I rented.

Let's go. I don't want to be late. Oh,
I'll be right there.

Me too.

Well, now that's suspicious.

I'll say.

What is it?

It's a bag.

Oh, why would a kid take a bag to a
dance?

Well, well, well, lookie here. He gots
himself a cherry bomb.

Oh, that little merry prankster's gonna
try to blow up the giant pumpkin.

When he gets down here, he's so busted.

No, wait, wait, wait. You really want to
teach him a lesson?

Well, catch him red -handed.

And then publicly humiliate him.

You know, that kind of thing sticks with
a kid forever.

Well, you know how that is.

Well, I'm out of here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. You're not going
anywhere, young man.

What do you mean?

It's out your little black bag.

Who smells bacon?

You do. That's right, because Johnny Law
is in the house.

All right, I'm Officer CJ, head of
security.

It has come to my attention that a
student or students...

Or possibly a combination of the two is
planning a prank tonight.

So keep your eyes out for anything out
of the ordinary.

Especially anyone in a disguise.

Suddenly having my mom here isn't the
most embarrassing part of the night.

Hey, Carrie!

except you've got no one on the punch
bowl. Well, I'll just add it to my list

duties. Anything else?

Zero?

It's zero.

Yeah, really original, by the way.

Hey, there.

Hey, Pete.

Love your costume.

That's like the best dance we've ever
had.

You know, I've been getting a lot of
that.

What is?

Oh, I would love to.

Um, no. Sorry, I can't. I can't leave my
post.

It's too bad.

Actually, Pete, wait. You know what? I
can't dance out there, but I can sure

dance back here.

Oh,

if they're crying out loud,

they're just starting to dig the tunnel.

Read the sign.

The candy's in the bowl.

What bowl?

Well, it was right there.

Well, it's not anymore.

What else you got?

I got half a movie to watch. See ya.
That's not fair.

Don't get mad at me. Your little cronies
didn't honor the honor system.

What's a crony?

I told you there's no candy.

that to catch Sergeant Jim Egan.

That was pretty fast.

Oh, look at you. Where are you going?

Gonna have a glass of punch and tea
because I've got everything covered.

not everything. The fire marshal's here.
Too many kids. And he's thinking about

shutting this thing down.

Thanks. I'll be back.

Jenny Jenkins!

What?

She's here to get back.

Life's a dilemma.

Take that, you little punk!

Teach you to mess with a veteran of a
foreign war.

War? Korea was a police action!

Oh, now it's on.

You know, when I get... to you, you're
going to need this.

Just a fire marshal. Is there a problem?

Some kids were trying to sneak in, but I
got rid of them and everything's fine

now. You are just handling everything.

It's great, honey.

You threw a wonderful party and you were
afraid that you wouldn't be able to do

it.

I should feel good, but I don't. I lost
Pete.

There's going to be a thousand boys.

But tonight is your victory.

I just wish you could take it in.

You know what?

Maybe you're right.

Maybe this is the beginning of a more
serious Bridget.

You know, a Bridget who doesn't get
distracted by anything.

A Bridget who could give a damn if Pete
went back to Jenny Jenkins.

Pete didn't go back to Jenny Jenkins.
She went home alone and he came back

inside.

Do what I've wanted to do all night
long.

Five bucks to get into a high school
dance? You'd think Johnny Mathis was

performing. What are you doing here?

Oh, I got into a little Donnybrook with
a couple of neighborhood kids.

They stole the candy and threw eggs at
me. Oh, I'm sorry.

That's all right. I got one of them tied
up in the garage.

tough to see this fog, little man.

Need a light?

I've been waiting to do this all night.

Oh, Bridget!

Good idea! Although, I did kind of send
it.

Julie! I thought you hated her! Hey,
hey, lighten up! Carrie, why do you

have to be so mean to your sister?

What?

You're kissing him? I broke up with
Jenny for you. A very bad move.

Yeah, caught him red -handed.

Good work, Jenny.

Now's your chance to really teach him a
lesson.

Oh, I'm way ahead of you.

Keep him here for a second.

Rory, for your own good.

What's up, Detroit?

giant pumpkin is safe and this dance is
prank free.

You know, Funkin' Wagnalls defines
heroes. Look, it's the village people.

Did you have a good time?

It was interesting.

Oh, come on.

You've got to admit, Bridget did a great
job.

Well, it wasn't the embarrassing,
disorganized train wreck I hoped it

Did you really want her to fail?

More than anything.

Carrie, she's your sister.

And no matter what is happening out
there, in here, we are family.

Family sticks together.

I know, I know.

I guess I'm just tired of things always
working out for her because she's

Bridget.

Well, you can't be mad at her for being
herself.

Can I be a little mad?

We're all a little mad.

Hey.

Just so you know, Max told me this is
the best dance he'd ever been to and...

that I showed great leadership
qualities, and he's coming here this

rake leaves and wash the car.

You were right.

Max is a jerk, and so am I.

Oh, well, I wasn't exactly perfect
either.

If it wasn't for you pushing me, I
probably would have screwed things up.

If it's any consolation, I was punished.

I kissed Max.

Not good.

a really bad piece of sushi you couldn't
wait to get out of your mouth.

Yeah, this was worse.

I actually feel bad for his clarinet.

I'm sorry.

I can't believe I went against you, my
own sister.

It drives me nuts that things always
work out for you and magically you

seem to get what you want.

Not tonight.

I didn't get what I wanted most.

Pete.

The night's not over yet.

And there he is, right on schedule.

Not for one night, I would just love to
be you.

But

not

tonight.
