:03:00
I'm just going along to make sure...
:03:01
...there aren’t any real goblins
hanging around.

:03:04
Like dirty old men who try to give
pretty little girls some candy.

:03:09
Tell your father you’ve got company.
:03:11
You better shut the door.
You'll let all the heat out of the house.

:03:14
I've seen you around,
but we’ve never met, have we?

:03:18
- You came over from England, right?
- Right.

:03:20
And they don’t celebrate
Halloween in England?

:03:22
No.
:03:24
It’s a big day here...
:03:25
...when all the kids get dressed up
in costumes and masks...

:03:28
...and go around to all the houses...
:03:29
...and shout, "Trick or treat!"
:03:31
And you’re supposed to act scared.
:03:33
And if you don’t give them a treat,
they pull some dirty trick on you.

:03:36
You mean, no trick-or-treaters
have been by here tonight?

:03:40
Well, there will be. My two kids
will be along here any minute.

:03:42
One’s a green skeleton and
the other’s a Frankenstein monster.

:03:46
What’s considered a treat?
:03:50
Candy, popcorn, gum,
anything like that.

:03:53
Would they like a piece of cake?
:03:58
But that’s your birthday cake.
:04:00
You shouldn’t cut it just for them.
:04:04
Bravo.
:04:07
Where’s your mother?
:04:09
My mother’s dead.
:04:11
But your father’s here.
:04:14
He smokes French cigarettes, right?
:04:17
Am I right about
the French cigarettes?

:04:19
Yeah.
:04:21
Where is he, upstairs?
:04:23
Your father’s upstairs?
:04:25
- No, he’s in his study, working.
- Oh, yes. He’s a poet.

:04:28
My mother says he’s a poet.
:04:30
And whatever my mother says
automatically has to be true.

:04:33
It wouldn’t dare not be.
:04:36
My mother’s the lady that leased
this place to you and your father.

:04:43
Oh, that’s great.
:04:45
The kids are gonna love this.
:04:53
Are my hands cold?
