NEVILLE: Ah, can you smell that crisp air, cats and kittens?
Harvest time is upon us.
And that means one thing.
Halloween is just around the corner.
Pete the Cat and his family
were rambling on over to the pumpkin patch.
Halloween means lots of things.
Fun costumes, trick-or-treating,
things that go bump-a-dee-bump in the night.
And, of course, jack-o-lanterns.
We're here!
Let’s find our jack o' lanterns!
(LAUGHING) You don’t find jack-o-lanterns, hun,
you find pumpkins,
then you carve those pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns.
Right you are! Let’s find our Pumpkin-o-lanterns!
NEVILLE: Pete the Cat was very excited
to find his pumpkin.
He looks forward to it all year long,
because everyone in town brings their jack-o-lanterns
to the Pumpkin Pageant.
If you have the most interesting jack-o-lantern of the year,
well, that’s a real accomplishment.
I think I’m going to carve a picture of a surfer.
I’m going to carve musical notes into mine.
That way if someone knows how to read music,
they’ll get a spooky song stuck in their head.
(SINGS) Woo-woo-woo.
I’m going to carve the scariest thing I can think of.
Our family van... with a flat tire.
Waah!
What are you going to carve, bro-boat?
NEVILLE: Pete wasn’t sure what he was gonna carve yet.
You see, to make the perfect jack-o-lantern,
you need to pick the perfect pumpkin.
And that’s exactly what Pete was going to do first.
But finding the perfect pumpkin
was a little harder than Pete thought it was gonna be.
That one’s too squat, that one’s too tall,
this one is too orange, that one is not orange enough.
Hey, little bro...Haven’t found your pumpkin yet?
Well, don’t be too picky.
You can’t always wait for the perfect wave, so...
...ride the wave you got.
NEVILLE: Pete knew he shouldn't be too picky,
But he still wanted to find
the perfect pumpkin for the pageant.
Now I’ve seen a lot of pumpkins in my day,
but I’ve never seen a pumpkin
as perfect as the one Pete found.
He was smitten as a kitten.
With this perfect pumpkin
Pete will have the most amazing jack-o-lantern,
or my name isn’t Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater Goldstein,
which of course it isn’t.
It’s Neville as you well know, but still, mmm-mmm-mmm,
that’s a mighty fine pumpkin.
Yo bro, that’s one ginormous pumpkin.
All right, let’s load up and get gourding.
Get it? Because get going and gourd.
Get gourding. Oh yeah, gourd. It's a type of pumpkin.
Oh, Pete! That squash is gonna squash you!
Well now that Pete had the perfect pumpkin,
he needed to carve the perfect jack-o-lantern.
The pressure was on.
Check it out.
I used all the stringy pumpkin guts to make the waves.
Still haven't decided what to carve?
Well, the pumpkin pageant is pretty soon.
Just pick something and ride with it.
Bob was right,
but Pete needed this jack-o-lantern to be perfect.
He decided to see what his friends were carving.
Maybe their ideas would inspire his perfect idea.
(HUMMING)
Hey now, that’s a familiar hum.
It’s Callie Cat!
Hey, Pete! Happy Halloween!
Are you excited for the Pumpkin Pageant?
What do you think of my jack-o-lanterns?
Yep, it’s the 9 Lives from CatGo and the 9 Lives.
But you might be wondering where Catalina is.
Check it out.
(RADIO PLAYS CATGO SONG) ♪ Tell me what you need to have a good time ♪
♪ We need a real good party ♪
♪ Tell me what you need to have a party ♪
Now Pete thought Callie’s jack-o-lanterns were very cool.
Maybe he’d carve a picture of someone he admired,
like Mom,
or Dad,
or Bob.
So what are did you carve?
Well, you better think of it soon!
See you tonight!
Pete saw his grumpy friend,
Grumpy Toad who had carved... a happy face?
Huh, well that's unexpected.
Hey, Pete, what do you think of my jack-o-lantern?
Oh, it's upside down.
That's grumpier.
Hey, are you as excited as I am for the Pumpkin Pageant?
I mean, if large carved orange gourds is your thing.
What did you carve?
Oh, still working on it, huh?
Well, whatever you carve I’m sure it will be awesome.
NEVILLE: Pete really loved Grumpy's style.
So now he thought the perfect pumpkin
had to be both simple and cool at the same time.
Well, if it isn't Pete the...Cat.
What do you think? She's ready for the pageant.
Yes, she's looking the part,
but I'm not sure she'll be able to pull off the talent portion.
NEVILLE: Oh Wilson, it ain't that kind of pageant.
See you tonight, Pete.
Hiya Pete, check out my pumpkin.
I couldn’t decide, on one face to carve
so I carved two, but then I thought
you know what’s better than two? Three!
But then I thought two and three, that makes five.
Five more faces!
Then I said to myself,
‘Sally Squirrel, why stop now?’
So I decided to carve all the faces I could.
All the faces!
And for mine, I thought,
jack-o-lanterns are lit at night,
so I recreated the famous impressionist painting
the Starry Night.
NEVILLE: Well, Pete was impressed
with his friends’ inspired creations,
but now he had to carve the perfect jack-o-lantern
into an already perfect pumpkin
and he had to do it quickly,
because it was almost time for the pageant.
Well, Pete had seen so many of his friends’ good ideas,
that he didn’t know what type of jack-o’-lantern to carve.
It was a big pickle.
A big pumpkin sized pickle.
What to carve? What to carve?
That’s it! Pete finally knew what he was going to do.
It would be perfect.
Before he went to get his folks to help him start carving,
Pete made one final adjustment.
Hey Pete, have you finished?
Oh dear!
Oh, Pete, I’m so sorry you broke your pumpkin, hun.
Well, maybe it’s not too late.
Let’s call the farm and see if we can get another one in time.
Hello, this is Pete the Cat’s Dad
and...oh...uh..uh...
I see.
Oh, sorry son.
They're all sold out of pumpkins.
I know how much you were looking forward
to carving the jack-o-lantern.
Hey, broat-meal! I got an idea!
You can still make a jack-o-lantern.
But how, Pete thought.
Who said you need a pumpkin?
A jack-o-lantern is just a carved face. Let's get creative!

Well, I’d say you’ve got the most unique bunch
of jack-o-lanterns I’ve ever seen, little buddy!
The Pumpkin Pageant finally arrived,
and while there were many beautiful lanterns
lighting the night sky this year
none were as interesting as Pete’s.
I love the cereal-o-lantern!
Your globe-o-melons are so cool!
You know, if you’re into things that are “so cool.”
I wish I had more eyes to see these with!
I wish I had all the eyes!
Pete. C’est magnifique.
And while Pete had wanted the perfect pumpkin,
he got something even better.
As Bob sometimes says...
You can’t always wait for the perfect wave...
Sometimes you gotta ride the wave you got.
But don’t you think for a second
that I forgot about all that broken pumpkin.
(CAR HORN TOOTS)
Pete, your giant pumpkin may have gone splat,
but at least it was big enough to make pies for everyone.
- Run for pie! - Oh yeah...
- Pumpkin pie! - I love pumpkin pie.
Well, what are you waiting for cool cats and kittens?
Dig in.
Yee-haw! Howdy, cats and kittens.
I guess you can tell from my get up
that it's Halloween.
Time for costumes and trick-or-treating
and maybe a scare or two.
Yee-haw!
Hey, Grumpy! Neat mushroom costume!
Close. I’m a toadstool.
But I know who you are. You're Catgo...
(BOTH) From Catgo and the 9 Lives.
Hey, Emma! Nice ghost costume.
I am not a ghost.
I am your preconceived idea of a ghost.
Cool. I...I think.
Hey guys! Ow!
Uh...uh...uh!
(GIGGLES) Thanks! That was fun.
Guess what I am?
(GIGGLES) I'm an acorn!
I love Halloween. Whoops!
You look great, but before we pick up Pete,
you know he’s gonna try to scare us like he does every year.
Huh, oui. He gets us every Halloween!
At last year’s Haunted Hayride,
I thought the Zombie Sheep were real!
I’d never seen a toad jump that high!
Ya see, every Halloween
Pete finds a way to scare his pals.
It's kind of a tradition.
Seriously! Not this year.
I have a list of ten ways not to be scared by...
(SCREAMS) Pete!
Pete, is that you?
Neat costume... for sure.
Okay, we’re not going to let Pete scare us starting...now.
Happy Halloween, kids! Check me out.
- I'm a mime. (ALL) Oh...
Come on. Let’s trick or treat!
(ALL) Yay!
SALLY: Trick or treat! Thank you.
ALL: Trick or treat! Thank you.
Trick or treat! ALL: Thank you.
CALLIE: Trick or treat!
GRUMPY: Trick or treat!
ALL: Thank you.
SALLY: Thank you!
Oh, no. Are we here already?
Wilson's House.
Home of the Backyard of Terror.
NEVILLE: Every year, Wilson makes his version
of a haunted house, in his backyard.
Truth is,
the kids have never had the nerve to go see it.
(DOORBELL RINGING)
Hello!
ALL: Trick or treat...
Who wants a can of soup?
Actually, Wilson, I think this is the year,
when the kids are finally ready for your...
(TREMBLING VOICE) ..backyard of terror!
Really? Wonderful! Meet me around the back.
If you dare!
I heard it’s full of monsters with HUGE teeth.
Do you think it's true?
I heard it’s the home of spiders.
(WHISPERS) And I don’t like spiders.
Ah, oui, no one likes the spiders.
Well whatever it is back there,
I think it’s time we found out.
Huh?
Welcome! (ALL SCREAM)
I...I mean...whooo...
Welcome to the Doomitory of Scaryversity!
I am Professor Fear!
I don't see any spiders.
Spiders? No. But behold!
The Grapes... of Wrath!
Behold more!
Spaghetti “SCARINARA!”
This is terrifying!
Scary!
Not scary?
Even a little?
Not really.
I mean I was all set to tell my brain it’s not scary,
but my brain already knew,
because it’s not scary even.
But now, I kind of want it to be.
Wilson, if I could just take the bowls,
I think I could help with the uh...with the scary.
What? Yeah, yeah, sure. Here you go.
You must close your eyes.
All of you.
I have a bowl of monster eyeballs!
And over there...monster guts!
Who will dare touch them?!
It does feel like monster eyeballs! Ughhh.
Oh, this could be the monster guts, for sure
(EXCITEDLY) Where did you find monster eyeballs?
It's so disturbing!
Oh. It's grapes.
But grapes aren't scary.
Because you can see them!
But if you can’t see them and you tell yourself
it's something scary - monster eyeballs!
Then it’s going to be scary because you think it is.
Right! Your imagination made it scary.
Hey! We survived Wilson’s Haunted Backyard!
Super cool!
Awesome! Now back to trick or treating!
(ALL) Goodbye Wilson!
GRUMPY: Oh, and Happy Halloween. WILSON: Goodbye kids.
Thank you Pete the Cat's dad.
Uh...Happy Halloween Wilson.
I didn’t think mimes could talk.
Let’s keep trick or treating FOREVER!
Let’s not just go to the houses around here.
Let's go to all of the houses!
NEVILLE: The next stop on their route was Radley Manor.
A beautiful old house
that’s got some spooky old tree in front of it
that the kids call...
ALL: The Whispering Tree!
(PETE'S DAD WHISPERS) It's just a tree.
Yeah? Well, Pete, I dare you to touch...
(WHISPERS) ..the whispering tree!
That's crazy!
Look, Pete did it.
(EMMA GASPS) Sacre bleu! It’s just a tree!
You’re right. All it needs are acorns.
It’s not that kind of tree.
Are you a witch?
No. I’m a Prairie Dog.
Oh, oh! You mean my costume?
Yeah, for Halloween.
Hi. I’m Callie. What's your name?
- Boo! SALLY: Ahhh!
Sorry! So, your name is Boo?
Yep. Boo Burrow. Want some candy?
So what’s the big deal about touching this old tree?
A ghost cat pirate haunts it and makes it whisper!
I mean, right?
(LAUGHS)
Actually I think it whispers because of wind in the branches.
ALL: Ohhh.
Zut alors! We hve conquered it.
ALL: Yay!
- Bon soir! - Thanks! - Nice to meet you. Toodle-oo.
Pete’s friends were starting to see
that things aren’t so scary once you look at them up close.
Have fun trick or treating!
This being brave thing is easy!
Ouch! What’s the hold up for?
You know some woods like this, don’t ya?
You go through ‘em all the time during the day.
But at night the mind plays tricks on ya.
