The dragons prepare a Halloween party complete with costumes, decorations, and appropriate food and activities.

Pete hates going to parties, but when his friend, Wayne, convinces him there will be tons of easy girls at an upcoming costume party, he decides to give partying one more go. Except the party is just a couple of hours away and Pete doesn’t have a costume. After a long search through his house and garage, he finds a possibility: the sexy witch costume his sister wore at Halloween, many years before. He’s about to toss it aside when he realizes it might be kind of funny to wear to the party. And it would be funny, if people didn’t actually think Pete was a real woman.
