"Kenny:" "I can't believe this night is finally here." "This is what I've been looking forward to since I came out." "Everett:" "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen." "I'm Neil Everett.." "Welcome to the biggest night of the year..." "All Hallow's Eve, Halloween, The Gay Super Bowl!" "Expectations are high that this will be... the biggest and best Halloween in the history... of humankind." "This is what it's been all about." "It's a dream come true..." "a night where I can totally be me with no judgment."

"There's a flag on the gay." "Just the right amount of curl and a subtle balayage." "You, my friend, are going to look perfect on me." "Were you just talking to that wig?" "No." "I was talking to myself, and it's possible Paula..." "The wig heard me." "Okay." "Well, dare I ask what this is for?" "It's for my Halloween costume!" "Duh!" "I'm going as Beyoncé from the Super Bowl halftime show." "Now, I considered one of her "Lemonade" looks, but I just don't want to pick sides between her and J." "Well, it seems like you could've gone with something a little more, I don't know, out of the box." "You don't want me to dress in drag, do you?" "Nope!" "Uh, no." "No, I do not." "Well, may I remind you that last year, I went as Selena Gomez, the year before that, Taylor Swift, and Gaga the three years before that." "Yes, I know that, but I..." "That was before I knew you were..." " Gay?" " Yes, exactly." "And back then, it just seemed like innocent fun, and now, well... it... it just doesn't." "Which is why I got you the most amazing costume, and I really think you're gonna love it." "Newsies." "Damn it!" "You know I'm obsessed with that movie!" "Remember that one Christmas I asked for a newsstand?" "And I got you period newspapers you can throw at people." "Ha ha!" "Extree!" "Extree!" "Oh, wow." "I look good in this hat." " Mm." " Okay." "All right, fine." "I will wear your costume, but only if you promise to stop micromanaging my first gay Halloween." " Okay?" " Yeah." "This is very important to me, and I've been waiting for it forever." "Fine." "I'll stay out of your way..." "On the night that, statistically, has the most ritualistic killings of the year." "♪♪" "So, what are you two up to tonight?" "Jimmy and I are gonna go trick-or-treating." "Could be my last Halloween at home, so I thought I'd take my little sister around the block one more time." "If that sounded dirty, I didn't mean it to." "Okay." "My sewing club, now unionized, B-T-W, made us some sweet Bonnie and Clyde costumes." "I'm gonna be Bonnie, because gender is fluid nowadays." "Well, at least you picked historical figures." "You know, murderers, but still..." "So, you're totally fine with Jimmy dressing in drag?" "Yes." "In his case, it's just, you know, "I'm silly, and check me out."" "In your case, it's..." ""I'm single." "Check me out."" "[Door opens]" "Well, welcome to the worst day of my year." "Why?" "Because Halloween is a horrible night to be a cop." "That's why." "Everybody's drunk and out looking for trouble." "Used to be only kids dressed up, and if you're lucky, you get a little razor blade in your apple and slice your mouth open a little bit." "Anyway, Kenny, looks like it's just you and me again handing out candy, as usual." "Actually, I will be enjoying my holiday with my people at the big parade in Boystown." "You will be doing no such thing." " Dad, please." " Mm." "Please help me convince her." "Oh, no, I'm sorry, Kenny." "I agree with Mom on this one, buddy." "It's just not safe out there." "I mean, one minute, you think you're drinking lemonade, and the next, it winds up being Molly water, and you're rolling balls for six hours." "Okay." "How about this?" "Why don't we have a party?" " A party, here?" " Yes." " And I can invite anyone I want?" " Yes." "Even gay people?" "Yes." "Dad, it's not called "rolling balls."" "It's called bowling." "♪♪" "[Chuckles]" "Ah. [Chuckles]" "What do you want to do with these?" "Those aren't decorations, Pat." "They're actual cobwebs." "No!" "[Coughs]" "What is this?" "It's a map of our neighborhood, with the Murphys' house circled in skull and crossbones." "Jimmy and Shannon aren't going trick-or-treating." "They're gonna go prank the Murphys' house." "[Sighs] Hooligans." "Our own kids are hooligans?" "!" "[Sighs] Oh, I'm gonna teach them a lesson tonight, boy." "Yeah, I'm gonna scare them straight." "I wish I could do that with Kenny." "Yeah, I was a little surprised you agreed to let him have a party here." " Well, it's better than the alternative." " Well..." "Besides, he knows zero gay kids to invite." "Well, he does have that one lesbian friend Allison." "Yeah, but she's kind of a dud." "I think I just stepped in gum." "My party is gonna be so awesome." " Who's coming?" " Who's not coming?" "My mom said I can invite as many gay kids as I want." "But you and I are the only gay kids at school." "Okay, fine." "So nobody's coming yet." "But don't you worry your plain little face, Allison, because we will find gay kids to invite." "I mean, Halloween is a magical night where anything can happen." "Including murder." "Yeah." "Well, hopefully not, but in any case, we're gonna fill my house to capacity." "How?" "By making a deal with the devil." "What do you want, Kenny?" "I like your costume." "We're doing "Faust." I'm not in it." "I'm just supporting the others who are." "That's what it's like at my new school..." "We support each other." "Unlike my old school, where you tongued my prom date." "Stuart, that was months ago." "Haven't we moved on?" "Through dance therapy, yes, I have." "I am having a killer Halloween party at my house, and I'm willing to have you there if you bring along some of your new gay friends." "Okay, normally, I wouldn't even consider this, but my house is off-limits since the "Equus" wrap party, so I'm willing to grant your request." "There's just one hitch." "Bring it." "I must be referred to as the host." "[Chuckles]" "Okay." "And I will be?" "The sad girl in the corner." "[Laughter]" "Hey, maybe before we prank the heck out of the Murphys' house, we should stop by a few places for candy." "Jimmy, I need you to focus." "I'll throw the eggs while you fill their mailbox with shaving cream." "Then we run like hell." "If anyone catches us, we keep mum about the whole thing." ""Mum" means quiet." "It's also a flower." "Why do you look so confused?" "Have you noticed that car following us?" "Yeah." "What if it's a Freddy-Krueger-type serial killer who chains us up in our dreams?" "We can't go to sleep." "Shannon, don't fall asleep." "Calm down and walk faster." "Pat:" "Jimmy and Shannon, stop walking." "Oh, my God." "The serial killer sounds just like Dad." "Jimmy, it is Dad." "That's what he wants us to think, Shannon!" "Jimmy, it's me, Dad." "Get in the damn car." "Screw you, Krueger!" "Not worth it!" "Can't believe nobody's here yet." "I really hope Stuart didn't screw me on this one." "[Doorbell rings]" "This is it." "This is them." "Allison, the best Halloween of our lives is about to start right now." "Oh, man." "[Door closes]" "A...pigeon whisperer?" "Stick of spearmint gum with flies all over it." "Um..." "Garbage Island." "No!" "I'm Tippi Hedren from "The Birds."" "I'm trying to impress Steve the Colorist from work." "He and his gay buddies are gonna go down to Boystown for the parade and, fingers crossed, I'm gonna be with them." "Oh, don't talk about the parade." "That's where Kenny wants to go." "Fine, but when Steve texts, I'm outtie." "I'm checking things off my bucket list, and number one is me getting my own gay entourage." "Really?" "That's number one?" "[Chuckles]" "Well..." " What are those two doing?" " Having a party." " But no one is here." " Exactly." "I win." "[Doorbell rings]" "[Gasps] You came!" "I mean, uh, cool, yeah." "Um, I thought maybe you weren't gonna make it."

"Told you the cuffs were a bit much, Dad." "Well, if you'll tell me why you were gonna prank the Murphys," "I'll happily take the cuffs off." "We have to keep mum, Dad." ""Mum". "Dad"." "[Laughs]" "I'm happy this is a joke for you." "Listen, these two are in trouble, but I need to go handle this mermaid who was just urinating in public." "Can you watch them for a minute?" "Yeah, sure." "But what are they in for?" "They're charged with possession... of eggs." "♪♪" "No prison can hold me."

"I-Is it cold?" "Because I'm..." "I'm really sweating." "Step away from the thermostat." "[Gasps] 55 degrees?" "You are trying to De-gay my party!" "I am not." "I blended all the Popsicles into slushies like you asked, Eileen." "Well, I just think it's more fun to drink a Popsicle." "Mom, you promised that you'd be cool with me having this party."
