BACK SEAT.

BACK SEAT.

[ GRUNTS ]

I WANTED TO DO A CORN MAZE THIS

YEAR.

I KNEW THIS GUY WAS HERE --

MR. COSTA.

COSTA'S FARM.

AND I COME FRIDAY TO ASK HIM IF

I COULD HAVE SOME OF IT, AND HE

SAID TAKE AS MUCH AS I WANT.

HEY, GUYS, COME AND GET THIS

CORN.

THE SQUIRRELS ARE GONNA BE

HAPPY.

I MEAN, THERE'S PLENTY OF FOOD

FOR A MONTH FOR THESE GUYS.

I'LL HAVE SQUIRRELS 50 MILES

AWAY COME TO EAT MY CORN.

DON'T COME NEAR ME!

GO GET THAT CORN.

HEY! GET THAT CORN.

NO PLAYING. ANNA.

ALL RIGHT, GUYS, THAT'S THAT.

COME GET THIS STUFF, AND WE'RE

OUT OF HERE.

HOPEFULLY, IT'S ENOUGH.

[ LAUGHS ]

>> IT'S ALWAYS BEEN A FAMILY

THING.

EVERYBODY COMES TOGETHER.

HALLOWEEN IS THE BIG NIGHT THA IT'S A BIG PARTY AT THE SOUZA

HOUSE.

IT'S A BIG HOLIDAY.

IT REALLY IS.

CRYSTAL COMES HERE, AND SHE

DRESSES UP EVERY YEAR.

>> YOU SPLATTERED ON ME.

VOIL.

>> MELISSA LOVES TO SCARE

PEOPLE, SO SHE GOES AND HIDES IN

THE YARD, AND SHE'S GOOD AT IT.

ZACHARY'S ALWAYS BEEN THE ONE

WHO'S BEEN AFRAID.

HE WAS OKAY WITH OUR HAUNT, BU NOT ANYBODY ELSE'S.

HE STILL HASN'T GONE IN VICTOR'S

OR ANYBODY ELSE'S.

>> ALL RIGHT.

ONE AT A TIME.

>> WHEE!

>> PULL IT OUT NOW, MELISSA.

I STILL HAVE MY TURN.

>> HEY, ZACHARY, YOU WANT TO

ARRANGE THOSE BONES?

>> SURE.

>> YOU CAN ONLY GO AS FAR AS

HERE, OKAY?

>> OKAY.

>> SO, PUT THE HEAD THERE AND

PUT IT ALL TOGETHER.

MAKE IT LOOK LIKE A BODY.

GO AHEAD, ZACH.

GO AHEAD, MELISSA.

YOU GOT TO FIGURE IT OUT.

MY LITTLE DAUGHTER -- SHE ENJOYS

IT.

SHE GETS RIGHT IN THERE WITH ME.

SHE BUILDS CHARACTERS AND

EVERYTHING.

MY LITTLE SON DOES THE SAME

THING, TOO.

THEY HAVE A BALL DOING IT, SO

NOW I HAVE TO CONTINUE DOING

THIS FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES,

YOU KNOW, AND, THEN, HOPEFULLY,

AS THEY GET OLDER AND THEY KNOW

HOW TO WORK WITH THE TOOLS AND

STUFF, MAYBE THEY'LL DO THIS.

IF NOT, JUST SELL THE STUFF OFF.

I DON'T CARE.

I HAD MY FUN WITH IT.

FAMILY...IS EVERYTHING TO ME.

AND WHEN THEY'RE MY AGE, MAYBE

THEY'LL THINK BACK OF, "OH, I

REMEMBER ON HALLOWEEN MY FATHER

USED TO DO THIS.

MY FATHER USED TO DO THAT.

WE HAD A HAUNTED YARD, AND ALL

MY FRIENDS CAME, AND WE HAD SO

MUCH FUN."

WHEN WE HAVE STUFF LIKE THIS

GOING ON, WE'RE BONDING.

YOU STRETCH IT AND STRETCH I AGAIN.

GO AHEAD.

KEEP ON DOING IT, BUD.

THE MORE TIME YOU SPEND WITH

THEM, THE MORE TIME YOU BOND

WITH THEM, MORE TO GET TO KNOW

THEIR PERSONALITIES.

>> [ Grunting ] ALL RIGHT.

WHOA, THIS ONE'S HEAVY.

>> YOU DON'T HAVE IT GOOD.

GET IT FROM THE BOTTOM, VIC.

JUST PUT IT RIGHT DOWN RIGHT NOW

AND GET IT RIGHT FROM THE

BOTTOM.

THERE WE GO -- NOT TOO HIGH,

THOUGH.

>> OKAY.

>> JUST WATCH THE WIND, 'CAUSE

IT'LL TAKE IT.

>> ALL RIGHT.

SO, JUST PUT IT DOWN.

WE'RE PULLING OUT OUR WALL

PANELS.

ONCE THEY'RE OUT, WE'LL STAR CONSTRUCTION ON THE FIRST HALF

OF THE HAUNT.

ALL RIGHT, SO, THEN, THIS IS THE

PANEL THAT GOES THERE, RIGHT?

MIDDLE PANEL, 3, THIS WAY.

SO THAT ONE GOES THERE.

>> GOT IT.

>> ALL RIGHT.

OH, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.

THIS IS WRONG.

THIS IS THE SECOND PANEL THERE.

SORRY.

>> I'VE KNOWN VICTOR PROBABLY A

GOOD PART OF HIS LIFE, ACTUALLY,

'CAUSE I WAS YOUNG WHEN I MOVED

DOWN HERE.

IT JUST TOOK ME OVER THE FIRS TIME THAT HE MADE THIS MUCH WORK

FOR HIMSELF.

>> ALL RIGHT, I GOT TO THROW A

BRACE UP HERE.

>> 'CAUSE IT WAS SOMETHING

THAT -- I THOUGHT IT WAS COOL

THAT HE DID, BUT IT WASN'T THIS

MUCH BUILDING.

HE'S A GOOD CARPENTER.

HE'S GOT A LEVEL HEAD.

SO HE IS THE KIND OF PERSON THA CAN PUT ON THIS SHOW LIKE THAT.

BUT STILL, IT'S A LOT OF WORK,

SO THERE'S NO WAY YOU CAN'T SEE

SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND GO,

"THIS GUY'S BURIED."

YOU KNOW, "I GOT TO HELP HIM

OUT."

>> YOU NOTICE HOW THE TOP OF

THAT WENT OUT?

NOW WE GOT TO PUSH THAT WALL.

>> ONE, TWO, THREE, GO!

>> AS IT GETS CLOSER, IT'S MORE

MILITARY SERGEANT.

AND I FEEL BAD FOR THE PEOPLE

THAT COME BECAUSE HE -- BOOM,

BOOM, BOOM.

"GO NAIL THAT!" AND "GO DO THIS!

I NEED THAT!"

>> WATCH! OOH!

STAND IT UP.

TWO PANELS. THAT'S IT.

WE'LL PUT THIS ONE ON FIRST.

THEY'RE NOT GOING THIS WAY.

THEY'RE GOING THAT WAY.

THIS ONE. BRING IT OVER.

PUT IT RIGHT HERE.

ALL RIGHT, MOVE IT UNDER THERE.

WELL, COME OVER HERE. HELP HIM.

ALL RIGHT, YOU GOT TO COME IN A

LITTLE BIT.

LOOK AT THE BOTTOM!

HOLD ON. HOLD ON.

I CAN'T HAVE THE WALLS DOING

THIS, JOHN.

THEY DON'T USE THIS.

THEY GO AROUND.

SO THIS EDGE IS GOING RIGH HERE.

>> HOW YOU DOING, THERE?

>> I'M FINE.

>> YOU DON'T SEE [BLEEP] LIKE

THIS EVERY DAY, MAN.

>> ALL RIGHT.

>> I DON'T KNOW HOW TO BUILD, SO

I CAN'T HELP MY HUSBAND, SO THIS

IS WHAT I DO.

MY HUSBAND HAS THE WHOLE CELLAR

AND THE GARAGE AND THE ATTIC.

I JUST HAVE A LITTLE ROOM.

I'M ACTUALLY TRYING TO GET AS

MUCH DONE THAT I KNOW THAT I

HAVE TO DO BEFORE THE LAST WEEK

IN HALLOWEEN BECAUSE I KNOW

THERE'S GONNA BE SOMETHING THA VICTOR'S GONNA COME OUT AND SAY,

"I NEED THIS."

>> SO, IF THIS IS THE PUMPKIN

FORM, RIGHT, HE'S GONNA HAVE

PANTS ON, RIGHT?

SO, THAT'LL COVER THE BOTTOM.

IF THIS GUY'S GOT A CAPE HERE

AND IF HE'S EXTENDED OUT TO THE

ARMS --

>> THAT'S JUST GONNA GET IN HIS

FACE.

>> YOU WANT ME TO TRY THE

COSTUME ON?

>> NO, I KNOW WHAT IT LOOKS

LIKE.

I ALREADY MEASURED IT.

ALL RIGHT, IF HE'S SITTING DOWN.

YOU'RE MATT.

YOU'RE SITTING DOWN.

SO YOU'VE GOT THE BODY RIGH HERE.

>> MM-HMM.

>> THE BODY IS RIGHT THERE.

>> YEAH.

>> OKAY, THERE'S A LITTLE CAPE

RIGHT HERE.

>> YEAH.

>> OKAY.

SOMEBODY'S WALKING BY...

>> FROM THE PROFILE?

>> ..."OH, THERE'S A DUDE."

>> NOT IF HE'S FACING THEM,

COMING OUT OF THE TENT.

>> FROM HERE TO HERE IS 13.

THE OLD CAPE THAT WE HAVE IS 20,

SO WE'VE GOT LIKE 7 INCHES.

THAT'S NOT GONNA MAKE IT TO THE

ELBOW.

>> WE'RE NOT.

NO, DON'T GO TO THE ELBOW.

SO IT'S A LITTLE WIDER, LIKE

THIS.

>> SO IT'S JUST GONNA, LIKE,

HANG...

>> YEAH.

>> AND THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH?

>> THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH.

>> OKAY.

>> SHE GOES ALONG WITH IT.

WHEN SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER COMES

AROUND, SHE'S VERY INTO IT.

THE REST OF THE YEAR, NOT SO

MUCH.

>> IF YOU FIND THE TWO COSTUMES

FOR BECKY, BRING THOSE DOWN.

>> THAT IS DEFINITELY NOT IT.

LOOKING IN THE SAME BOXES OVER

AND OVER AGAIN NOW.

EGYPTIAN HAT.

HUNCHBACK COSTUME.

COSTUMES. [ LAUGHS ]

>> "WE HAVE NO ROOM.

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

WE HAVE NO ROOM TO STORE THIS.

YOU HAVE NO ROOM TO PUT THESE

THINGS."

"WE'LL FIND ROOM."

YEAH.

[ BOTH LAUGH ]

THE ATTIC, THE CELLAR, THE

GARAGE, THE SIDES OF THE

GARAGE -- EVERYWHERE.

EVERYWHERE IS HALLOWEEN -- EVERY

INCH.

>> BE CAREFUL.

THIS ONE'S RIPPING.

GOT IT.

>> YES, LET IT GO.

>> OKAY.

>> THE KIDS WANTED A SWING SET.
