Linus: What's that? What's that? I HEAR THE GREAT PUMPKIN!
-
Linus (writing): Dear Great Pumpkin, I am looking forward to your arrival on Halloween night. I hope you will bring me lots of presents.
-
Lucy (with a witch costume and mask): A person should always choose a costume that is in direct contrast to her own personality.
-
Charlie Brown: I don't understand it. I went trick-or-treating, and all I got was a bag full of rocks.
-
Lucy: Say, Charlie Brown, how about practicing a few place kicks? I'll hold the football, and you come running and kick it.
pause
Charlie Brown: Oh, brother. You must think I'm stupid.
-
Lucy: NOT AGAIN! Writing a letter to a stupid pumpkin? You make me the laughingstock of the neighborhood! All they talk about is my little brother who always writes to the Great Pumpkin. You better cut it out right now, or I'll pound you!!
-
Linus: Oh, Great Pumpkin, where are you?!
-
Sally: I was robbed! I spent the whole night waiting for the Great Pumpkin when I could have been out for tricks or treats! Halloween is over, and I've missed it! YOU BLOCKHEAD! You kept me up all night waiting for the Great Pumpkin! And all that came was a beagle! I didn't even get the chance to go out for tricks or treats! And it was all your fault! I'll sue! What a fool I was! I could have had candy apples and gum! And cookies and money and all sorts of things! But NO! I had to listen to you. You blockhead. What a fool I was. Trick-or-treats come only once a year. And I miss it by sitting in a pumpkin patch with a blockhead. (strangling Linus) YOU OWE ME RESTITUTION!
Linus: You've heard about fury and a woman scorned?
Charlie Brown: Yes, I guess I have.
Linus: Well, that's nothing compared to the fury of a woman who has been cheated out of tricks-or-treats.
-
(Lucy scoops out the innards of the pumpkin)
Linus: Ohh. You didn't tell me you were gonna kill it!
-
Charlie Brown: I got a rock.
-
Linus: I've learned there are three things you don't discuss with people: religion, politics and the Great Pumpkin.
-
Linus: Never jump into a pile of leaves with a wet sucker.
