Previously on Pig Advances, 400 black
students are being bussed here from

Bay. I've become a little disillusioned
here.

So what?

You're going to pack your bags every
time a town disappoints you?

Big things seem to be happening in the
tiny town of Rome, Wisconsin.

Yesterday, Dr. Jill Brock rocked the
community by announcing her candidacy to

become the first woman mayor in Rome's
history.

All it takes for evil to succeed is for
good black men to do nothing.

How many times are we going to have this
discussion?

Every time he runs for mayor. I didn't
want to do it. He tricked me. He tricked

you, Judge Nance? He just, he somehow
got me to think that it was important

people to contribute to the community
they live in. It's not too late to back

out. I'm heading to the polls.

And look, Rachel Harris doesn't have a
chance. Everybody in town's rented her

porno tape. And Louise Talbot is a very
smart woman, but she used to be a man.

And that leaves Ed Lawson. Do you really
want Ed Lawson to be the mayor?

No. But you're a doctor.

Oh, but I'm hiring somebody.

You're also a parent. Your children need
to have you around here. Jimmy, our

children are very well adjusted. Don't
be using that as an excuse. We have

children.

Trick or treat.

What's this?

Our Halloween costumes.

We're the Menendez brothers.

I'm Eric.

And I'm Lyle.

Trick or treat.

I don't like pulling you off the street
for every little hiccup in my school.

But I am in over my head here.

Two weeks and they've started with the
gang symbols.

I looked it up in the glossary of street
slang.

Tagging, they call it. This one isn't
even in the book.

Is it the Crips or the Bloods?

It's not a gang symbol. It's a pentacle.

What? It's an occult thing.

Halloween's right around the corner.
It's probably just some prank.

It's not a prank.

Zach, would you please excuse me? It is
the Pence group, and I know who did it.

Who?

Go right there.

Sarah Keegan.

How do you know she did it?

Because she put a hex on me.

She's a witch.

It's for protection.

Everybody was talking about the black
kids coming and all the trouble there

going to be.

I didn't want anything to happen to me
and the school.

Well, that's an interesting thought,
Sarah, but you realize you're defacing

public property.

Am I going to jail?

No. Why did you think that would protect
the school, Sarah?

It can neutralize the black kids.

My mom taught me.

Last year she neutralized the dog that
kept peeing on our lawn.

Now he pees on all the lawns in our
neighborhood, but walks right on past

Your mom put a curse on a dog?

They're spells.

We don't do curses.

Who's we?

Witches.

The official point of this meeting is,
of course, to finalize the nominations.

As you know, Ed Lawson and Louise Talbot
and I are already on the ballot.

But if there's anyone else you wish to
nominate, then now is the time.

But before we get to that, something has
come up which I feel needs addressing.

Last night, my sons came downstairs in
their Halloween costumes dressed as the

Menendez brothers.

Now, after reprimanding them, we found
out that their original idea for

was O .J. and Nicole Simpson.

Now, I mention this... Because the
reason they decided not to be OJ and

is because they were aware of at least
20 other kids with the same plan.

Aside from the obvious bad taste, this
poses a particular problem for us.

The victim is a white woman and the
alleged killer is a black man.

We don't need that right now.

So as mayor...

I am passing an ordinance effective
immediately which makes O .J. Nicole

costumes illegal. And as a matter of
fact, any costume which is deemed to be

discriminatory or racially insensitive
will be illegal within the town limits.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on a second. I'm
talking, sir. I know that I have

something I want to say. And as a
mayoral candidate, I think there are a

people who would like to hear my point
of view.

Well, now, of course, it would be
completely insensitive for kids to dress

like O .J.

Well, with this busing thing going on,
it would be pretty repulsive to dress up

as Jerry Falwell also.

The fact is that Casper the Ghost
costumes are dangerous right now because

sheets can give people the wrong idea.

But that is a parent thing. A mayor has
no business regulating Halloween

costumes. I mean, where's it going to
stop? It stops right there. Sit down,

Politicians should not be telling us
what to do. See, this is exactly the

problem that this town is facing.

First, the feds came in here and forced
busing. Then they almost took our kids

away. Now she wants to control
Halloween. The next thing you know,

put a cap on the number of...

Christmas lights that can twinkle on
your tree so we don't offend the Jews.

I mean, look, I've said it before, I
will say it again.

Government has no business telling you
how to live.

And as your mayor, I won't.

And that is a campaign promise.

Now, I would like to say something,

please. Carter, make it quick.

At this time, I, Carter Pike, hereby
announce my candidacy for mayor of Rome,

Wisconsin.

I

don't

think this is an overreaction.

Like I have a choice?

Yes.

Investigate a little. That's what we're
doing.

What's wrong? Are you all right? She's
fine.

Who are you?

I'm Miriam Thorne from the Department of
Human Services. May we come in?

Okay.

What's going on?

They need me to tell.

Don't mean to alarm you, Mr. Keegan.

Mrs. Thorne just had a few questions to
ask you.

Okay.

I'd be happy to answer any questions you
might have.

Does Sarah have to be here for this?

Yes, I'm afraid she does.

Can you explain this?

It's an altar.

It's part of my religion.

You know, I'm not sure you people can be
here without a search warrant.

We're not searching for anything, Mrs.
Keegan. We just want to talk.

Sarah says she's a witch.

Well... She's not supposed to use the
word witch. It scares people.

And what word would you use, Mrs.
Keegan?

Wiccan.

It's an established religion.

I'd be happy to give you pamphlets to
read if you'd like.

Sheriff, could I speak to you in private
for just one second?

me i'm not a nut look the word occult it
scares people just be

cooperative maybe stay in on halloween
night this is keegan may i have a word

with you in private not until you
explain to me what the hell's going on

well everything may be perfectly fine
but we must continue to investigate and

while we're investigating sarah must be
remanded into the care of the state what

So if you'll provide us with a small
suitcase of her clothing and toiletries.

No, no, no, you're not taking her.
Mommy!

No, no, no, you're not. Mrs. Keaton. No,
no, no, you're not.

I have not done anything wrong, but it's
taking her. I am in doubt. You don't do

this, Sarah, or I'll have you arrested.

Now get Kenny and go on up to Kenny
Whedon's house. She knows about this

witchcraft stuff.

We're taking her now.

Now bring her suitcase out to the
apartment, and we will get it delivered

her, please.

Sheriff, I'm begging you. It's just an
investigation.

We have no choice.

Eight years old. We just snatched her
away.

It's ridiculous.

Maybe not, Max.

Ed Lawson had seen these witches in the
woods at night doing their voodoo stuff.

In the woods where? I don't know. He's
going to show me, but he said it's

definitely a cult.

Let's go get Ginny.

What do we need her for? Because she's
an expert in this cult stuff. She knows

about Wiccan. Maybe she can help Vera.
Well, let's give her a call. I did call.

She didn't pick up.

Max and Kenny.

Something doesn't smell too good.

Yeah.

Here's the stench.

That's been there a while.

Where is she?

She's in front.

Ginny's dress.

What, you think she's in there?

She's not in there. She couldn't be in
there.

Open it. You open it.

You're sure she's not in there? You're
the one who saw the dress. You open it.

Well,

let's both open it.

No sign of forced entry.

Looks like she might have fallen in.

My God.

Looks like she was reaching for the peas
and tumbled over.

One trauma bruise on the head, a lot of
frost, hard to tell much else.

Take her to the morgue.

Autopsy?

You were close to her. Can you do this?

Yeah.

Okay, guys.

How was the last time you saw her?

I can't remember.

You? I don't know.

A little stiff.

Douglas Wambo for the witch.

I beg your pardon?

My client is a member of the Wiccan
religion, and for no other reason than

they've taken away her child.

Your Honor, I'm Miriam Thorne from the
Department of Human Services.

We simply want custody of the child
while we investigate the environment in

which she's being raised.

I'm all for protecting children, Miss
Thorne, but I don't believe that's done

yanking them away from their parents.
That's what they did, Judge. It was a

vicious yank.

Shut up.

You see that?

Way close.

Your Honor, I have encountered the
Wiccan religion.

It teaches evil. It's satanic, and no
child ought to be exposed to that kind

of... It's not evil. It's not satanic.
Mrs. Keegan. She knows nothing about

Wiccan. Neither do I.

Miss Thorne, are you a lawyer?

No, sir, I'm not.

All of my department's lawyers are tied
up at the moment. However, we can be

ready to go by Thursday.

That's three days. You can't... Mrs.
Keegan, please.

I don't want to delay if there's a
safety issue.

Your Honor, I'll represent Human
Services.

You will? Why?

Well, it's a custody matter.

I've handled DHS cases before. I can do
it. My worthy opponent.

Will you be quiet?

This is what we're going to do.

I'm releasing the girl for now.

Until DHS makes its case, the
presumption goes to her mother.

Especially since you've offered no
suggestion of real abuse.

Three o 'clock, call your first witness.

Returned Halloween so we have a witch.
Why should I be surprised?

Excuse me I'm Benjamin Whedon

Ginny Whedon's brother

Very sorry.

Can I see her?

Yes.

She's not quite thawed.

I think she was bending over to reach
the frozen peas and fell in. She

bumped her head, knocked her
unconscious, the door fell shut, and she

hypothermia.

When did this happen?

Uh, my best guess is three weeks ago,
maybe four.

I talked to her the day she quit her
job.

She said she was moving on to bigger
challenges.

Now you've fallen into a freezer.

It was a gigantic hex.

What kind of a hex?

She had this crystal thing.

She started waving it in front of my
face. She started saying stuff about

rings and stars, and she told me it was
a hack.

Were you scared?

Yes.

So what'd you do?

I wanted to find a way to get the hacks
off.

And I knew she had this book on witches,
so I went into her desk to look for it,

and that's when I found the doll.

This doll?

Yes. You took this from her?

Yes. I made keeping in my locker so she
couldn't do any more voodoo on me.

Looks just like me.

Yeah? Mm -hmm.

I can see that.

Pin sticking right through the heart.

Yeah? I can see that, too.

Anything else?

No, I'm through with this witness, Your
Honor.

Thank you, Zachary.

Zach, did Sarah ever threaten to hurt
you?

No.

What was the worst thing she ever did
besides the hex?

She tried to kiss me.

Didn't she want to be your girlfriend?

Yes. But you didn't want this.

No. And when Sarah put the hex on you,
did she tell you what it was for?

To make me fall in love with her.

Did it work?

No.

What's going on? We're almost there.
Keep your hands back.

Here we go.

What's your name?

Jimmy Webb.

Are you okay?

All right, everybody, move along.

Go back to your class.

Move along.

Are you okay, Jimmy?

They just threw me in.

Who? The big kids.

It's a high school thing. They come over
here and target the squeakers. It's

been happening for years.

Who did it?

I don't know. The kids never rat. We
usually just let it go.

We can't let this go, can we?

You're not making a mountain out of
this, are you? What happens? White high

school kids are sold to black elementary
students?

Yeah, but the hospital's been doing this
for years. It's selective prosecution.

Well, then let's make it selective. You
let this go, there could be a backlash

from the black students.

Yeah, but there's been 20 white kids
thrown into lockers and heads flushed in

toilets. What do we tell their parents?

Go after all of them. I don't care. But
this isn't going to go unpunished while

I'm the mayor.

I'm sorry. Can I help you?

I'm Benjamin Whedon.

I'm Ginny's brother.

Oh.

We're so sorry.

I'm told she may have been dead three
weeks.

I'm curious as to how nobody discovered
her.

Um, nobody knew she was missing.

I see.

She led me to believe that she was very
popular in this town.

Was she making that up?

No, she was popular.

It was very popular.

Vera Keegan is not an evil woman. Well,
there's something wrong with her if

she's teaching her daughter witchcraft.

It's a religion.

What about Christian scientists? They
don't take their children to doctors

sometimes, and you don't run around
declaring them unfit. Christian

don't make potions out of grave dust,
Max.

They don't hop around casting spells on
people. This woman is a kook.

Casting spells on people.

You mean black people.

Why did you volunteer to take this case?

Because Mrs.

Keegan raised her daughter to be a
witch.

And that has to be stopped.

Uh -huh.

Yeah, yeah, Kenny, this is where I
always see them.

When I bet out hunting, always, always
on Wednesday night.

Yeah, well, we're not hunting now, Ed,
okay?

Yeah, well, you never know when you're
going to spot something.

You shouldn't ever be hunting at night
anyway.

Here we go. They're down there. Okay.

Falling star in a streaking path.
Destroy and dissolve all wrath.

Falling star in a streaking path.

Destroy and dissolve all wrath.

Falling star in a streaking path.

What's the answer? You fear the kid?

Walk naked.

And

we're

told there's an entire colony of witches
in Rome. Any comments? No, I know

nothing about that, nor do I wish to
comment on any case pending in the

I'd like to comment.

I saw them dancing in the woods naked
last night. Who did you see? Vera Keegan

and her daughter.

Men and women together.

It's outrageous.

If people want to get into this kind of
crap, fine.

But when they start involving kids, I
think we have to step in. And what about

your big intrusion argument?

You want the government to confiscate
children? How hypocritical is that?

If they're putting kids at risk, we have
to act.

She's more worried about trick -or
-treat, Koston.

Don't you have some mail to deliver?

That's a real leadership -type response,
don't you think?

Your Honor, what about...

Why aren't you helping me? How did you
get in here? Through the window on my

broomstick. Why aren't you sticking up
for me?

I'm not saying anything.

Exactly.

You're Sarah's doctor.

You know she's never been abused.

She's a good kid, and I'm a good mother.
You know it, and you're staying silent

for political expediency.

You can't ally yourself with a witch.
It'd be bad for public opinion.

Well, the truth is, Vera, I never knew
that you were a witch.

So how can I stand up and publicly vouch
for you? I obviously don't really know

you. You know I'm not dangerous.

You know it.

They're trying to take away my kid.

My daughter.

People are just concerned for her
welfare.

Trying to separate an eight -year -old
from her mother?

She could do without your concern.

It's just a joke.

Throwing kids into lockers isn't a joke.

Yeah, well, nobody got arrested when I
got stuck in a locker. I'm sorry about

that. Just wanted to tell him something.
I don't care. I don't want you to go to

that house, young man. Why?

Because I say so. I don't want your head
full of magic and all that witch stuff.

Now, just do as I say and don't go to
that house now. Just, please, go on back

to school, okay?

I'd like to arrange a service for my
sister.

Uh, okay.

Wharton Mortuary can arrange that with a
church.

People will come, right?

It'd be embarrassing if people didn't
come.

I think they'll come, yeah.

You know, I don't mean to intrude,
but... Jenny was involved with psychics.

Sometimes they're called... It's an
imaginative world.

Too much imagination can be dangerous,
Mr. Whedon. Children are impressionable.

We have to be aware of the psychological
consequences.

Our divinity is a goddess. She has a
male consort known as the Horned God.

You mean the devil?

The devil is a Christian concept.

Not only do we not worship him, we don't
acknowledge that he even exists.

Well, how can you cast a decent spell
without the devil?

We don't cast spells like evil hexes.

Wicca is about symbolic rituals that
unlock the powers of the mind.

That's what my daughter was trying to do
with Zachary Brock, to shift his

awareness through a series of rituals
that would cause him to love her.

Then why the doll, Mrs. Keegan?

It's just used for healing.

We locate the acupuncture points on the
doll's body that correspond to the

specific ailments of the patient.

Sarah put a pin in Zach's heart, hoping
to heal it.

You don't deny that you taught Sarah
about witchcraft, then?

No.

Have you ever taught her to harm people
with it?

Of course. Of course not.

And she never has.

Thank you, Vera.

Nothing further.

Your husband left you six years ago?

Yes.

Was witchcraft an issue?

Lots of marriages end because of
religious differences.

It was an issue?

Yes. What were you doing in the woods
last night?

Did you not hear my question?

We were praying and dancing.

With your clothes on?

No, we were naked. It's a nature ritual.
Men and women dancing naked together.

We don't do it in winter.

And was your daughter with you in the
woods last night?

Yes.

Dancing naked with naked men.

It was a prayer ritual necessitated by
this crisis.

We were praying for a safe... She runs
around with naked adults. She sticks

in dolls to make kids fall in love.

She sprays pinnacles to protect her
against danger, and she calls herself a

witch.

She's eight years old.

Did you tell your daughter that spraying
pinnacles has healing powers?

I didn't encourage her to spray paint
the school.

But you've taught her that the pinnacle
can protect her against evil.

Once again, lots of religions have
symbols of good luck.

Jewish people put mezuzahs on their
door. Catholics wear the cross.

And the pinnacle is good luck to ward
off evil.

Yes.

And what was the evil that your daughter
was fending off, Mrs. Keegan?

Objection. Was it the black students,
Mrs. Keegan?

She was afraid. Does that make you a fit
mother, Mrs. Keegan, to raise your

daughter to be afraid of black students?
Is that kind of bigotry conducive to

your methods of child rearing?

Objection. Sustained. What kind of
mother passes on prejudice to her child?

Objection. I didn't do that.

She went into that school and sprayed
all over to neutralize the evil. Now,

where did she get the notion of that
kind of evil, Mrs. Keegan?

I don't know, but I promise you it
wasn't from me.

You're her mother. I didn't teach her
that. She got that fear someplace else.

What case are you trying?

I beg your pardon?

Never mind begging my pardon.

What case are you trying?

The one about the witch and her
daughter.

Uh -huh.

I'm watching you, Counsel.

You asked me to stay in Rome and
contribute to the town, Judge.

That's what I'm doing. Right.

I'm watching you.

Well, it's an improvement, but it's
still questionable.

It's too late to change now.

Can we go?

Be back by ten.

Come on.

There's no romance in Halloween anymore.
Kids just dress up as characters they

see in the movies or on the news.
There's no myth.

No imagination.

Well, we live in a town with real
witches. We don't need imagination.

You know what I mean.

Halloween should be a little bit about,
oh, I don't know, sampling the persona

of evil, darkness, the unknown. It
should be scary and exciting.

Today it's just buy a mask and total up
your candy bars at the end of the night.

The illusion part is gone.

Well, Carter, speaking of illusion, this
is why we've asked you over here

tonight.

I don't think that you have any real
chance of winning the election.

And your candidacy is hurting mine.

So I would like you to withdraw from the
election.

I could be a good man. I know that,
Carter. I have no doubt about that. And

speech in the town hall, that was
fabulous.

People will vote for you because of
that.

But you can't win.

And you're only helping Ed Lawson.

It's selfish of you to run for mayor,
Carter.

Let me tell you something.

The reason I decided to run for mayor is
because this town has no legitimate

candidate. You ordered troops to stop
those buses.

You faked down those students like it
was Alabama.

I like both of you very much, but you're
also the two reasons I'm most

embarrassed about living in Rome,
Wisconsin.

I'm sorry that you feel like that,
Carter.

Me too.

I'm not just a medical examiner.

Uh -oh, wrong house.

Ow, what's my foot? This has been Wombo.

It wasn't because he was black.

He was a squeaker. The trick is to get
in and out of school without getting

caught. He was the first squeaker we
found.

And what's this club that you need this
initiation for?

Well, it's just the club.

The Blue Devils. We're not a gang or
anything.

He was just the first squeaker.

Ruin our Halloween.

Are you kids okay?

This is ridiculous.

We're releasing them.

But I suggest you talk to your sons
about throwing small children in lockers

next time I'll prosecute.

White kids have been getting hazed in
this town for years.

It isn't fair.

If my kid gets picked on by one of these
Green Bay kids, I'm going to expect the

same kind of public service.

Just one thing for equal treatment, but
special treatment?

Federal order said nothing about that.

She's right.

Who?

Vera Keegan. She's right. It isn't her.

Didn't come from her.

Oh, Mr. Whedon.

I'm sorry to intrude.

Is your husband at home?

Actually, no.

He's working. They have to enforce a
curfew tonight. He might be at the

by now.

Curfew on Halloween?

Well, it cuts down on the trouble.

Come in. Is there something I can do?

Maybe.

Did my sister have any friends?

Oh, of course she did.

Must be hiding.

Dr. Brock, Ginny and I were both
ostracized as children, so I... It's

she told me she was really adored here
in Rome.

She said she gave seminars at the
schools and used to host outings and

for the children.

None of this happened, did it?

Well, it used to.

Mr. Whedon, Ginny was very liked. She
was, but a lot of people

found her odd, different.

And it made the parents nervous to have
her with the kids.

Why?

Well... You know her wild imagination.

She would fill them up with stories that
were sometimes maybe a little too

vivid, and it made the parents nervous.

Is anybody going to come to her memorial
tomorrow?

Oh, yes, absolutely.

If there's one thing about Rome,
everybody's there for you when you die.

Not in court.

I go at 10 .30.

Sorry I testified against you.

You got me in trouble. I had to miss
Halloween.

They made me do it.

I only wanted for you to stop kissing
me.

I know.

Can we still be friends?

My parents won't let me because you live
in a world of delusion.

What? I heard them talking.

It's dangerous to be around black magic.

If you make believe too much, it could
cause brain damage.

Who says?

That's why they have to stop you from
believing in Easter eggs or Santa Claus.

It could screw you up if you believe in
and pretend stuff too long.

It's the same with witches.

But witches are real.

See? Screwed up permanent.

Witch hunts are nothing new in this
town.

We chased out Frank the Potato Man
because he was spooky and homeless.

We threw Louise Talbot out of the
Christmas pageant because of her sex

If you're different enough, you're not
welcome here.

Very Keegan is different.

She believes in love potions and hocus
pocus.

There can be no such thing as magic or
spiritual forces of nature.

How can we take our child?

How can we do that?

I guess witches will always be in season
in Rome, Wisconsin.

Mr.

Littleton?

I have nothing against witches, Your
Honor.

I'm sure most of them are very good
people.

I'm sure Vera Keegan is a fine person.

But the thing is, we must protect our
children.

We have to insulate them from influences
which could be dangerous.

And the reality is, like it or not, by
allowing witches to enjoy freedom in

community, we make Rome a less safe
place.

I mean, what if suddenly a lot of
witches...

came here to live before we had time to
adjust.

Now, one or two, I'm sure that's no
threat. We could mainstream them right

but what if suddenly 400 witches were
thrown into this town?

Now, you put witches and regular people
together, you increase the likelihood of

tension, maybe even violence. No, no, we
must keep Rome pure, even if it's just

fear itself which could cause the harm.
Damn it, we have to keep out...

frightening element.

We're a pragmatic people here in Rome.

We like to feel safe.

We have to make it safe for Sarah
Keegan, so for God's sake, let's keep

from witches.

Let's keep the evil out.

I have found no evidence of parental
abuse.

At least not by Vera Keegan.

I order that Sarah Keegan be returned to
her mother.

Case adjourned.

I suppose that was aimed at me.

When I heard what that little girl did
with that pinnacle, I was so... I was

just so angry.

I mean, she's just a kid.

How am I going to hate an eight -year
-old?

You made me hate her, Jimmy.

You and your wife and all those damn
concerns. You can't condemn us for being

afraid. No, that's where you're wrong.
That's where you've always been wrong. I

can.

You and Jill had a choice. You could
have stood up for the hope in it.

You know, desegregation, maybe that's an
opportunity.

Maybe there's optimism to dwell on.
Instead, you got up there and ratified

fear so that little white girls think
that they have to spray paint a...

I condemn you for your fear,

Jimmy. I condemn you!

deeply in Rome tradition, as you know,
is that before going on with religious

services, we open up the floor to any
friends of the deceased who would like

speak.

So.

Excuse me.

I'd like to do it.

I'm Benjamin Whedon.

I'm Ginny's little brother.

First of all, I'd like to say that this
is a terrific turnout.

Ginny really loved this town. She always
described it as so caring, which makes

it difficult to understand how she could
be dead for three weeks without anybody

noticing.

I know things have been very, very busy
around here, and Ginny knows that, too.

The busing and...

All this stuff going on at school.

The upcoming election.

I think Jenny understands.

Jenny and I had a favorite song.

Billy, it's a song from a movie. It's
not really for grown -ups, but we loved

it. Whenever we'd get together in the
last couple of years, we'd sing and play

this song.

I think it reminded us of when we were
little children.

Some of the things we clung to.

Anyway, I'd like to sing it for my
sister one last time.

She's forgetting.

Why are there so many songs about
rainbows?

And what's on the other side?

Rainbows are visions, but only
illusions.

Rainbows have nothing to hide.

So we've been told, and some choose to
believe it.

I know they're wrong, wait and see.

And someday we'll find it, the rainbow
connection, the lovers,

the dreamers, and me.

Well, who said that every wish would be
heard and answered

if wished on the morning star?

Well, somebody thought of that.

Someone believed it.

Look what it's done so far.

And what's so amazing that keeps us
stargazing?

What do you think we might see?

Well, someday we'll find it.

The rainbow connection.

The lovers dream of.

and me.

The lovers, the dreamers, me.
