The door begins knocking and everyone freaks out at the first trick-or-treater, Uncle Grandpa wants to make sure that everything is perfect, he opens the door and everyone is blinded by the terrifying costume they are witnessing. The light dies down and it shows a child wearing a shirt that says "Costume" and asks for candy, everyone gets disappointed and Uncle Grandpa gets mad that it's not even a costume, Chet says that it is a costume since it says it and he thought it was a good idea, Uncle Grandpa begins to yell at him saying that it's the most unoriginal, uncreative, unfunny costume ever. He explains that Halloween is sacred and it's an opportunity to escape their mundane lives, an opportunity to be something interesting for just a night, Halloween is not just about candy and it is something bigger than that and it is about being something you're not.

Uncle Grandpa asks Chet what he likes and he replies with candy, Uncle Grandpa then transforms Chet into a candy person and he loves it, Uncle Grandpa is happy to see Chet in the spirit and he gives him an empty pillow case to hold all the candy he is going to get from his awesome costume. He pushes Chet out the window in the back and tells him to have fun and get a lot of candy, and that he will change him back when he's ready. Chet thanks him and he goes off. Uncle Grandpa dressed as Finn from Adventure Time opens the RV door and says, "IT'S CANDY TIME!" and proceeds to throw candy to the children.

Uncle Grandpa pops out from a window and thinks it's a cool idea, Chet is glad to see Uncle Grandpa and he tells him his dilemma about kids wanting to eat him and asks him to change him back. Uncle Grandpa tells Chet to lean in until it is revealed to be a girl dressed as Uncle Grandpa, Chet sees it and runs away.
Chet runs up to a police officer telling him he has to help him, the police officer tells Chet that the safety of trick-or-treaters is his number one priority tonight, he then places a ticket on a car windshield.

Chet thinks it is cool but he still did not get any candy, Uncle Grandpa takes a chunk of Chet and presents it to him and says, "Happy Halloween!"
