(Tony enters Angela's room.)

TONY

Hey Angie, put the book away, it's Halloween!

ANGELA

Oh, Tony, this isn't just a book. It's a classic tale of horror by Robert Louis Stevenson! Would you like to hear it?

TONY

Oh well…

ANGELA

Don't worry, you won't learn anything. It's called "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde."

(Luanne is walking home from school. A random stranger kicks her to the curb.)

LUANNE

Aaaahhh!

MR. HYDE

Ha ha ha!

DMITRI

Oh my gosh! Reese, I mean Utterson, come see this! This dude named Mr. Hyde kicked her to the curb!

REESE

Isn't he good friends with Dr. Jorge Jekyll? He said he would get all his stuff.

DMITRI

Yeah.

REESE

Well, I'm going to stalk-er, follow Jorge until he confesses about Mr. Hyde.

(Later that evening)

REESE

Okay, Jorge, what's up with this Mr. Hyde dude you're talking about?

JORGE

None of your business!

REESE

Then what are you doing in your lab?

DMITRI

And why does he keep disappearing in it?

JORGE

Nothing. Now go home before I take more chemicals.

REESE

WHAT?

MATTHEW

Get out of here! You don't wanna see Jorge when he's in a…bad mood.

JORGE

Now, where was I? Okay, Poole, this is the greatest potion I ever made, to separate my good and evil halves, or my name isn't Jorge Jekyll!

MATTHEW

Oh, come on! I was just about to get in the pool!

JORGE

Why? Oh…that's right. Because of your name. Very funny. Now wrap my face up in bandages so I don't have to see myself before I transform.

MATTHEW

Okay.

(Matthew wraps up Jorge's face in bandages, Jorge drinks the potion.)

JORGE

Evil has an interesting taste…uh, AHHHH!

(Jorge falls to the ground and transforms into Mr. Hyde. He then opens his eyes as Matthew unwraps the bandages and he gets back up.)

JORGE

The mirror…

MATTHEW

What?

JORGE

THE MIRROR!

(He gives him the mirror. Jorge laughs evilly, then brakes the mirror. Later that night, Reese sees Mr. Hyde angrily smash all the china in a china shop.)

REESE

Gives a whole new meaning to the term, "Bull in a china shop," does it not?

TONY

That's no bull. That's…Mr. Hyde!

REESE

Wait a minute…Jorge? Ohhh dear.

TONY

Oh dear is right.

JORGE

I'm not him! I'm Dr. Jekyll! I'm not him! I'm Dr. Jekyll! I'm not him! I'm Dr. Jekyll!

TONY

I don't know who you think you're fooling. We also saw you transform into him.

JORGE

Okay, so he and I are the same person, but I can stop drinking the potion whenever I want, okay?

(Everyone in the story corners him.)

JORGE

NOOOOOOO!

(Jorge Jekyll is put in a straitjacket and driven off to a mental hospital.)

JORGE

*unintelligible speaking*

ANGELA

And that is why you should not drink evil potions to do evil things.

TONY

Yeah, like those things exist. It's not even scary.

ANGELA

Well, it was written in 1886. Scary standards were different back then.

TONY

Okay. Well, I'm going to bed. See ya in the morning!

ANGELA

See ya in the morning, knucklehead!

(Tony leaves Angela's room. She turns her head to the audience.)

ANGELA

Ha ha ha. Like he'll get sleep tonight.
