"Here's our Jack-o-lantern, Bones. Looks great, doesn't it?"

"I thought Christine and Joey were supposed to be the ones excited about Halloween, Booth. It seems you're enjoying this holiday more than they are."

"Halloween's a lot of fun. Candy, costumes, a little scare...kids love it. I'm glad the Jeffersonian party starts at 8. I'll take Christine and Joey around the block for some trick or treating before we leave."

"You're going to take our children begging for candy?" Brennan rolled her eyes. "I'm not sure I want them to eat all those treats anyway. They have no nutritional value."

"It's tradition. Kids love to go for trick or treat. Did you get costumes for the kids?"

"Angela lent me a dinosaur costume for Joey, although I'm not sure children should pretend to be raptors. Christine wants to be an apparition, but I'm not sure how to arrange that."

"Apparition?"

"She wants to be some sort of spirit that appears from the afterlife, even though I've explained to her that those things don't really exist."

"A ghost...she wants to be a ghost. That's easy, Bones. Just find an old sheet and cut some eye holes in it. Easy. It doesn't make any difference if it's not real. That's part of the fun of the evening. Speaking of which...Are you going to the Jeffersonian party as Wonder Woman again this year?" Booth embraced his wife. "I love that costume…"

"I always go as Wonder Woman. She's a good role model for Christine."

"Yeah, but Wonder Woman's not exactly real. By the way, I'm going as Captain America this year."

"I like your Captain America briefs very much." Brennan smiled slyly. "Will you model them for me in private later this evening?"

"I think we can arrange that." Booth grinned and kissed her. "Happy Halloween…."
