You Can't Do That on Television, Season 9 (1989)
[Halloween night. Mrs. Prevert, dressed in a witch's costume and talking in a high-pitched cackle like a witch, is handing out candy. Chris and Ted walk up to her door dressed in their normal clothes.]
Mrs. Prevert:
Aren't you supposed to take a little more trouble with your costumes?
Ted:
No way!
Chris:
Lady, dressing up is for little kids. Now listen, we've got a lot of houses to cover, we gotta fill these things up, so why don't you just give us the candy.
Mrs. Prevert:
Oh, well, at least give me a choice of trick or treat.
Chris:
That's funny. Don't treat us like kids. Give me the candy and give him the candy.
Mrs. Prevert:
No! Say "Trick or Treat"!
Chris and Ted:
Fine! TRICK OR TREAT!
Chris:
Now give us the candy.
Mrs. Prevert:
No! You gave me the choice, and I choose TRICK! HA HA HA HAAA!!! Alakazoom, alakaZAM!!!
[Mrs. Prevert changes Chris into a frog.]
Ted:
Chris? [picking up the frog, wearing a tiny leather jacket] Chris??? [flees in terror]
Mrs. Prevert:
AAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!! AAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!
