Everyone else
We look stupid.
No, you don't.
Come on, sweetie.
And, last but not least, a special prize
this year for the best homemade costume
goes to the Sullivan sisters.
Ah, you can't throw away your prize -
best homemade costume.
- They made it up 'cause they pity us.
- You got it 'cause you're different.
We don't want to be different. We want
to be the same as everybody else.
the same as everybody else?
'Cause everybody else
goes trick-or-treating.
- What's that?
- It's what they do here for Halloween.
What do you mean?
Like, help the Halloween party?
No, not help the Halloween party.
You don't ask for help in America.
You demand it.
Trick or treat -
you don't ask, you threaten.
- You can't do that on our street.
- Why not?
Because you can't threaten drug addicts
and transvestites, that's why.
What are transvestites?
A man who dresses up as a woman.
- For Halloween?
- No. All the time. All the time.

- Why?
- It's just what they do here, OK?
