Campaign Talk and Halloween Thoughts
Lucy: [to Charlie Brown]
We have it cold, Charlie Brown. (If he does not say anything stupid, we can't lose.)
Linus:
And as a change of pace, rather than campaign talk, I've decided to say a few words about the Great Pumpkin.
Charlie Brown and Lucy: [screaming]
AAUGH!
Linus:
Halloween will soon be with us. And on Halloween night, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch and brings toys to all the good little children.
Linus:
I've blown the election.
Linus:
All right, say it. Say it. Go ahead and say it. I know you want to say it. I have talked too much. Now I have blown the election. So go ahead and say it.
Lucy:
OH, YOU BLOCKHEAD!
Linus:
She said it!
Lucy: [turns to Linus]
The way I see it, we still have a chance. My personal poll now shows you and Russell tied at 50-50. If you don't do some other stupid thing, we might still pull it out of the bag.
Linus:
It's depressing to think that there are students who don't believe in the Great Pumpkin.
