Kim Possible
Trick or Treat
( The scene starts as Kim enters her house, the sky above as clear as glass despite a few clouds in the her school books in her left hand. She puts them down on the kitchen table and gets herself a can of soda; After closing the refrigerator, she looks at the calendar, and is slightly annoyed at the date: OCTOBER 31ST.)
Kim
( Wiping her forehead)
Yeah, right. It's Halloween, and it's hot. What are the odds?
.(As Kim drinks it, she hears someone giggling; She walks toward the front room, where she hears some more giggling. She sits in the recliner, the giggles seem to be close to her.)
Kim
Who's here?( Just as she speaks, confused, two small, masked figures attack her: one is wearing a bear mask with claw-shaped shoes while the second is dressed like Batman. Kim rises to her feet, ready to fight, but there is no need, as the two figures remove) Tim? Jim? Don't do that!
Tim
What did you think? Scary enough?
Kim
Guys, where's Mom and Dad?
Jim
They're getting dressed for some party at the hospital( Just then, there is a knock, and Kim goes to open it, gasping in surprise: Ron stands in the doorway, clad in a Zorro costume with a few errors: there is no sword, there is no hat, the cape is red, and Ron is wearing sneakers )
Kim
( Annoyed) Ron, what are you doing here? And who are you supposed to be?
Ron
Zorro.
Kim
If you're Zorro, where's your plastic sword?
Ron
My mom thought it would be too dangerous.
Kim
Ok, where's your mask?
Ron
Oh, man, I knew I forgot something. About the shoes, I just didn't want to look too weird.
Kim
You shouldn't worry about that, Ron. Whoa!( Kim looks up, seeing her parents on the stairs in their costumes; Mrs. Possible is clad in a pink evening gown, with pink shoes on her feet, and carrying a wand in her left hand; Mr. Possible, by contrast, is clad in a simpler outfit, a black tuzedo, black evening shoes, and a rose; He gives Kim and the boys a debonair look. Outside, the sky has gotten a little cloudier)
Ron
Looking good, Dr. Possible!
Mr. Possible
Thanks, Ron. Boys, be nice to Ron, and be careful!( Kim gets irritated, and frowns, realizing what she will be doing.)
Kim
Wait a minute. Where are you going? I'm supposed to stay home while they( referring to her brothers) get to go out with the clown?
Mrs. Possible
There's a costume party at the hospital; we'd invite you, but most of the guests will be doctors.
Dr.Possible
Don't worry, you can watch TV or listen to your music; we don't usually get a lot of trick or treaters until late.
Mrs. Possible
It's not the end of the world, Kimmie; you may have a car next year. Think about that.
Kim
(aside) You're not helping.( Kim's parents kiss her, go over to Tim and Jim and kiss them, and then go out the door.) Have a good time!
( We now skip to a few hours later; it is now pouring rain outside the house, as Kim tries to concentrate on some schoolwork. She looks at her watch, the time now 7:30. Suddenly, Kim is aroused by the doorbell. She comes to the door and opens it, laughing at Ron and her brothers, whose costumes are soaking wet.)
Kim
Well, well, Mother Nature ruined your parade?
Ron
Kim, I'm soaking wet, my candy may no longer be edible, and( sneezing) I may have a cold. Can you wait until later to tease me?
Kim
Come on, Ron; it never bothers me. How far did you get?
Jim
Well, the bus was nearing the mall-
Kim
Ron, you took them on a bus?
Ron
Well, eh..
Tim
He had the right idea, Kim ; We didn't see a single bowl of candy on the street.
Ron
It wasn't any better at the mall, Kim. I've never seen so many Spider-man costumes in my life, Kim, I almost freaked. Alright! They're having a " Monster Creepathon! " Cool! ( Tim and Jim come down presently and join Ron in the living room; Kim returns to the table, and once again tries to do her homework. Unfortunately for both parties, outside, a lightning bolt has just struck the branch of a tree, which in turn has fallen on some nearby telephone wires. The boys still shocked by the sudden catastrophe, Kim rises and, groping the wall, goes out of the kitchen; as she approaches the stairs, however, she trips over a empty mop basket, falling next to the closet. )
Kim
Don't worry, guys. Help is here.( Opening the closet door, Kim manages to find a outdoor flashlight in the darkness, as well as a rubber glove. She rises to her feet, and turns it on, adjusting it to the right setting. When she enters the living room, putting it on the floor, the flashlight gives the room a eerie glow, attracting the guys.)
Tim
( Looking at Kim and Ron) Know a scary story?
Ron
( Eyes lighten up) I know one. How about " The Oozing Cheese? "( Everybody looks at him, frowning. Kim grabs the flashlight, adjusting the setting, so that it lights up her face)
Kim
Not quite, but I might have one…
