What I don't understand is... how

long has this place had waiters?

Good evening.

Do have another drink

while we wait for the other

members of our little... troop.

Susan, there's a monster

under my bed again.

Oh! Ow!

Ow!

That's a wizard.

No, I'm not. I'm incognito.

Yeah, right.

You're just someone in a pointy hat.

Mr Sideney here is indeed

a wizard. A student, anyway.

This is my brother Banjo.

This is Chickenwire.

I didn't want to come!

Mr Sideney's down on

his luck at the moment.

Hence his willingness to

join our little venture.

So what's the job?

We don't do jobs. We perform services.

And the service will

earn each of you $10,000.

No one said anything about

there being magic in all of this.

Well, I...

Do the voice on it!

- Do the voice on it!

- No!

- Not the voice!

- Hit it on the head with a poker.

- Not the poker!

- This is the friendly warning.

Understand? Because it's Hogswatch.

What are you, a witch or something?

I'm just... something.

Now, you won't be around

here again, will you?

Or we'll put your

head under the blanket.

It's got fluffy bunnies on it.

Fluffy bunnies... No!

Go away and stop bothering me.

That wasn't as much fun

as the one last month,

You know, the one when you

kicked him in the trousers.

Just go to sleep now.

- Locks.

- We have a locksmith.

- Who?

- Mr Brown.

And you can help me carry this.

It's rather heavy.

What is this?

This is my brother Banjo.

Does it do tricks?

No.

He can lift two men up in

each hand, by their necks.

Yeah.

He looks like a volcano.

Really?

Wanna be fashionably late, do you?

I do so hope we're gonna

be friends, Mr Medium Dave.

It really hurts to think I

might not be among... friends.

And I suppose we might

as well make a start.

Hello! My name's Violet,

and I have been your tooth

fairy for this evening.

Here, there ain't nothing

valuable, you know.

Nothing valuable, only

a few bags of t-t-t-t...

Teeth? I know.

My name's Teh-ah-tim-eh.

What's your name, sir?

Ernie. Yes, Ernie.

Come along, gentlemen.

This is my friend Ernie.

He's gonna be our driver for tonight.

Put her in the back, Banjo.

Mister, I ain't rightly allowed

to carry passengers, ya know.

Charlie'd give me a right telling off.

Oh, don't you worry about

that. We're all friends here.

Our mam said no hitting girls.

Only bad boys do that, our mam said.

Shut it!

Ssh! Ernie here doesn't want

to listen to our troubles.

Wh-Wh-Where

to, mister?

You know the way, Ernie.

Behind the Unseen University.

Where the students of

magic are still hard at work

on the night before Hogswatch.

It's just a shame we don't have

any radiation shielding, Busar.
