After the cartoon was over, everyone applauded.
"Oh, Goofy..." Lucky sighed and shook his head as he was still laughing even after the cartoon was over.
Speaking of which, Goofy came to them in a waiter uniform and wore a pumpkin on his hat with a notepad. "You rang?" he chuckled. "What can I get you all to eat?" he asked as he gave them their menu's.
"Pumpkin pie, please." Patch smiled.
"Make that two." Lucky also smiled.
Goofy smiled as he jotted down their order.
"Yeah, I haven't had pumpkin pie yet this year." Cherry agreed.
Goofy then decided to give them all pumpkin pie for their nightly treat and returned to the kitchen.
"Mm... I can already tell this pie is going to be delicious." Patch said before eating his slice.
"Makes me think of my childhood..." Cherry sighed dreamily. "Going on hay rides... Performing Monster Mash... Being someone I'm not... Oh, I just love Halloween."
Lucky and Patch both ate their slices and enjoyed them. While that was going on, Jafar was putting the potion in a goblet and where when they kicked Mickey and the others out, they would keep Atticus inside with them so then he would drink it and unleash his dark side. The next cartoon was rather dark and creepy, having very frightening ghost noises. Dot was really scared by the cartoon and held onto Lucky for protection.
"Don't worry, kid; it's just a cartoon, they can't hurt you." Lucky assured her.
Dot looked to him, she still hugged him and was now slowly calming down.
"Wow, this one is pretty scary." Patch said.
Cherry flinched at some scary parts, but she still had a smile on her face because it was so scary.
"Cherry, you confuse me sometimes." Mo said.
"Thanks!" Cherry grinned sadistically.
"I hope that someday, I'll understand you." Mo said.
"I don't know if we'll ever be able to understand her." Dot said.
"Some things can't be understood." Amber added.
Cherry gave them a look.
"What?" Dot asked.
"Oh, nothing..." Cherry shrugged.
"Okay?" Dot said, confused.
Cherry rolled her eyes and continued to watch the cartoon with them until it was all over. The entire cartoon was scary and entertaining.
"Man, Donald was harder to understand in the older cartoons." Cherry said to the others.
"How so?" Patch asked.
"Did we not watch the same thing?" Cherry deadpanned.
"Oh, right." Patch said.
"I worry about her sometimes." Darla whispered.
Amber nodded in agreement about Cherry's behavior.
"Well, at least nothing else bad has happened." Dot said.
"At least not yet..." Patch said to her.
Dot looked to him and looked very nervous now.
"Oh, sorry, Dot..." Patch frowned that he worried her.
"Don't worry, nothing bad is going to happen." Lucky assured her.
Dot cuddled with her dog again.
The silver canister was now given to them and Goofy gave them a Happy Halloween wish before going to his next table.
Cherry smiled, she removed the top, but saw that only pie crumbs were left. "HEY! Who ate our pie!"
There was then a loud burp heard from behind the kitchen doors.
"Oh, brother." Patch groaned.
Cherry put the top back on and folded her arms.
"Well, at least it can't get any worse." Lucky said.
"Stop saying that, that's just asking for something bad to happen." Cherry said to him.
"Little lady, you're with Lucky, you know why they call me 'Lucky'?" the male border collie smirked.
"Because of his good fortune." Patch answered with a smile, remembering that was how they had met.
"There's no such thing as luck." Cherry insisted.
"Trust us, when you're around Lucky, everything is good luck." Patch smiled.
"I bet..." Cherry folded her arms.
Lucky chuckled. "Ah, you'll turn up."
"Yeah." Patch agreed.
"Whatever, man!" Cherry leaned back and played with her deck of cards until Mickey would come back with more cartoons.
"Hey where are Jafar, Iago, Cruella, Captain Hook, and Ursula?" Patch asked as soon as he noticed the five not at their table.
This made the others look in curiosity then.
"This can't be good..." Darla pulled on her now looser curls to look more like Sleeping Beauty's hair. "There's the most dangerous villains of all time on the loose!"
"Calm down, I'm sure it's nothing serious." Amber cooed.
Cherry got out of her seat to see Forte was left behind. "FORTE!"
Forte let out a yelp, grabbing his chest. "Cerise, what are you trying to do, give me a heart attack?" he glanced down to her.
"Where's your 'new friends'?" Cherry asked, using air quotes.
"I-I don't know, they must be starting Jafar's plan." Forte said.
"Are you in on it?" Cherry poked her finger in his chest.
Forte took her hands and placed them not too far from her face so she couldn't hurt him anymore. "I'm just going along with it until you kids save the day..." he admitted. "They seem to refuse to believe that I can change because of a simple little girl who has something in her that I had never seen before... You, Cerise..."
"What about me?" Cherry glanced at him.
"Yeah, what about her?" Lucky asked after coming over.
"Cerise, I know you hate yourself, but I don't..." Forte lowered her hands and looked into her eyes. "I've always admired you since you were a little girl..."
"Was this before or after you scarred me for life and gave me a childhood pathological fear of pipe organs?" Cherry narrowed her eyes.
"I sincerely apologize for that..." Forte replied honestly. "Cerise, come here..." he put his arm around her. "I know you're not interested in the slightest, but I really do care about you. I realized why I did what I did... I was just jealous..."
"You're strange..." Cherry put his arm away.
"Jealous of what?" Lucky asked.
"Well, Cerise and I were both ignored," Forte explained. "Belle had the Master and the Master had Belle... The others were so insistent of becoming human again that they barely paid attention back to poor Cerise who was just split up from her family and celebrating her first Christmas without them and she was only a child..."
"Oh, my..." Lucky said, surprised.
"I felt bad for her..." Forte sighed. "I wanted to help her..."
Cherry looked away from Forte, she had her arms folded and she was looking around for the other villains.
Iago came back to the table to see a tray for him, but growled in disgust once he saw he was left with crackers.
"Alright, Bird, tell me what Jafar is up to!" Patch growled at Iago.
"Whoa!" Iago fluttered up in the air, glaring to the Dalmatian. "Watch it! You dont' sneak up on an endangered bird!"
"The only danger you're involved with will be this if you don't fess up." Cherry shook her fist at the parrot.
"You better fess up, Bird Brain." Patch said.
"What do I look like, Jafar's errand boy?" Iago snarled at them.
"Well... Yeah..." Lucky glanced to him.
"Well, okay... I guess I could tell ya..." Iago smiled evilly and eagerly, holding out his wing. "Five bucks each!"
"How does your life being spared sound?" Patch glared at Iago.
"Umm... Okay..." Iago chuckled nervously. "So, anyways, Jafar and the others are plannin' on makin' a few changes in this here House of Mouse... He wants to turn it into a House of Villains! So at the stroke of midnight, we're all gettin' together and there's gonna be a few changes around here!"
"And who is we?" Darla folded her arms at the bird.
"Hey, I'm just as evil as they are!" Iago scowled.
"Not really..." Cherry folded her arms. "The only thing evil you do is cause migraines and scream loud enough to wake up the dead."
"She's right." Patch said.
"HEY, I'M TOUGH, JUST WATCH ME, I'LL SHOW YOU FREAKY GOODY GOODIES TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT!" Iago shouted at them and flew off, aggressively.
"My ear drums are bleeding." Cherry mumbled.
"We have to warn Mickey before it's too late." Patch said.
Mickey came out on stage with Goofy and they introduced the next cartoon which was a fairy type theme.
"Ooh." Dot said, interested.
Darla and Amber smiled, they knew this cartoon couldn't hurt Dot due to it having a fairy theme. Dot smiled eagerly as she decided to watch it in full content.
"All right, bad guys..." Cherry wandered backstage as the cartoon played. "Where are you?"
"Hey, you're not supposed to be back here!" a female mouse scolded her, wearing a cape.
"Minnie, you don't understand!" Cherry spoke up in defense.
"Yeah, it's the villains, they're planning on taking over and changing the House of Mouse into the House of Villains at the stroke of midnight!" Patch told her.
"Please take your seats!" Minnie whispered loudly, ushering them back to their table. "I'll admit to you though, I do have a funny feeling about the villains being out here all together, but don't worry, if anything's wrong, I'm sure Mickey will put a stop to it."
"Well, okay." Patch smiled.
"I'll get on it... Sorry about shoving you, it's club policy." Minnie told them and returned to her position.
Dot, Amber, and Darla laughed at most of the humor Goofy had in the cartoon, but grew worried when a demented little boy took away the fairy leader and was going to kill him.
"That boy is cruel." Dot frowned.
"I hate snobby people." Darla scoffed, folding her own arms.
The cartoon wasn't exactly scary, but it was humorous and adventurous, satisfying the audience. There was another applause as the cartoon ended.
"That was amazing." Lucky said.
Meanwhile, the villains returned to their table, minus Cruella.
"Say, isn't it time for your Halloween trick?" Iago prompted Jafar.
"Patience, Iago," Jafar told his bird. "Midnight nears...
"And now, put on your grim grins, for this Halloween treat!" Mickey introduced a Donald Duck cartoon featuring Huey, Dewey, and Louie with a gorilla escaped from the zoo.
"Ooh." Patch said.
"Why do I feel like this is gonna be painful for Donald?" Amber asked with a teasing giggle.
"Oh, I'm sure this will be painful for Donald." Darla added in.
"Who gets stuck with all the bad luck?" Lucky finished with a chuckle as they watched the cartoon together.
"That would be Donald, he always get stuck with bad luck at times." Patch added in.
Lucky laughed and ruffled up the top of his head.
