But the Huangs are in for a spooky evening when they agree to help wean the baby off of her pacifier.

Errors/Inconsistencies[]
- The children dressed up like Harry Potter characters wear outfits reminiscent from the first movie, which hadn't been released yet. Additionally, the placement of the Harry Potter scar is above their right eye, which how it was featured in the movies. However, on the cover illustrations for the books, the scar was situated in the very center of the forehead.
Quotes[]
Jessica: Are you The Penguin from "Batman"? 'Cause he wears a top hat. Louis: I'm The Godfather. You tried to kill Halloween with babysitting, but you've only made it stronger. Now I can do a couples costume with Marvin and Honey's baby. She'll be the severed horse's head. Her little face peeking out of the horse's mouth? I die. I die just thinking about it. Jessica: What if she suffocates? Louis: Wasn't married to it. |
Trent: If you want a job, why don't you just go back to Cattleman's? Eddie: I'm not trying to work at my pop's restaurant my whole life. I got my own plans. I want to prove I can do this myself. |
Jessica: I'm surprised to see the daughter of a dentist using a pacifier. Marvin: That's what I say. Everybody knows that the suck leads to buck. Teeth. Buck teeth. |
Jessica: Louis! You were completely undermining my parenting. Louis: I wasn't undermining. I was collaborating... while you were not in the room. Besides, I only did it once or twice. A night. For a year or so. Jessica: Oh, my God. Louis: Well, you were finally getting some sleep. I didn't want him to wake you. Eventually, he outgrew the pacifier and no one was the wiser. Jessica: Not being wise is being dumb! You made me dumb! |
Evan: Hello, friends. What have we here? Britney Spears. Trick or Treater: Hit me baby one more time? Evan: And three Harry Potters! Please compliment your mothers on your scar makeup. |
Trick or Treater: Trick or treat! Evan: Weren't you just here, Britney? Trick or Treater: I don't know what you're talking about. I'm Hermione Granger. Candy-loriam! Chocolatose! Evan: [to Emery] Mulder? A word. What do we do? It's the same girl. Dad said one piece of candy per person. Emery: What if she's telling the truth, Scully? I want to believe. Evan: Fine, but if we run out of candy, the egging is on you. |
Trick or Treater: Trick or treat. Evan: Welcome back, Hermione Britney. Trick or Treater: As if. I'm Cher from Clueless. Evan: Mulder? She's back for a third time tricking us for treats. This is everything Dad warned us about. Emery: What if she's a clone? It's Halloween. Strange things happen. Evan: It's your show, Mulder. |
Jessica: [to Maria, as Honey] Don't cry! It's me, Honey! Louis: [as Marvin] I-I-It's me, an older dentist who loves floral shirts and was in the Navy. In my day, you were only allowed to cry if a bone broke through the skin. Jessica: [as Honey] Mama loves you! Mama wore a halter top the day after you were born! |
Trent: Why do you care so much about selling a mattress? Eddie: I just wanted to prove that I could make it in a job that wasn't handed to me by my dad. Trent: You know what? I'll buy a mattress from you. Eddie: Trent, you don't have to. Trent: I want to. You really sold me on that hot-away foam earlier. As my body is changing, there's a heat radiating from down south. How much for this bad boy? Eddie: $4,000. Trent: On sale?! Eddie: But the gently-used twin in the corner is only $75. Trent: I'll take it. |
Evan: Special delivery for Mommy. One Evan hug with a side of cheek peck. Jessica: What was that for? Evan: After embodying Agent Dana Scully for a night, I have a new respect for women. It is not easy for you. |
