Listen to the rhythm, rhythm of the street.

Open up your eyes, open up your ears.

Get together and make things better by working together.

It's a simple message and it comes from the heart.

Oh, believe in yourself.

For that's the place to start.

Start and I say, hey, hey!

What a wonderful kind of day.

To learn to work and play.

And get along with each other.

Hey! What a wonderful kind of day.

Hey! What a wonderful kind of day.

Hey!

Hey, T.W.!

Hey!

What are you doing?

Besides messing up your room, none of your business.

And stop hiccuping, OK? You're driving me nuts!

You know how some kids dress up as kitty cats and fairies on Halloween?

Well, that's not what Halloween's about.

I'll show you what I mean.

Twinkle, Tweet!

Oh, look! You're so cute!

Wrong!

See, on Halloween, you're supposed to look like monsters.

You're supposed to scare people.

Try again.

Twinkle, Tweet!

There you go. Much better.

Scaring people on Halloween is an important tradition.

Plus, it's fun. Watch this.

Whoa!

Is that your idea of scary?

What's on your face? Underpants?

Pick or treat?

Arthur!

Shh!

Check this out. I'm going as Frankentist.

Half Frankenstein, half dentist. Scary, huh?

Not really. I'm going to be a prom queen.

What's scary about that?

Trust me. Me as a prom queen will be scary.

That's not half as scary as Candy Boy.

Candy Boy?

He's a boy who never gets candy. It makes him really mad.

So what's your costume, Brain?

I'm going as the 14th Century.

This is the castle, and these are the serfs.

And here's a village where false beliefs are taking hold.

The 14th Century. Don't you get it?

No hygiene? No movable type? No science?

Guess who's going to have the scariest costume this year?

Me.

Nuh-uh, Arthur.

I'm going to be way scarier than you.

What could you possibly think of that scarier than Frankentist?

Lots of things.

How about a hairless mouse?

Or a dog that walks on its hind legs?

Or a roller skate without shoelaces?

Or I could be a brown banana. That's scary.

Mom, can you please make D.W. stop hiccuping?

She's been doing it since yesterday.

I can't help it.

Did you try holding your breath, D.W.? Maybe that'll work.

Okay.

Cut it out. That's worse than hiccuping.

Oops. Sorry.

What's scarier, a crown or a tiara?

And why are you covered in crumbs?

It's all D.W.'s fault.

She's been hiccuping for two days, and it's driving me crazy.

Well, curing hiccups is easy.

All you have to do is drink a glass of water upside down.

You mean, you have to be upside down when you drink the water?

Or you have to hold the glass so it's upside down when you drink?

Beats me. I've never had the hiccups.

Some scientists believe that if you scare someone, you can cause an esophageal contraction, and they'll stop hiccuping.

One plus zero is what?

Hey!

Excellent!

Now, girls and boys, let's try something harder.

Something that will scare the boy.

Is that your idea of scary?

Ow!

D.W., isn't there any way you can stop hiccuping?

No.

She's tried everything.

Holding her breath, drinking water.

I don't know what else to do.

Brain told me to scare her, but it only made her hiccups worse.

That's because there's no way you could scare me.

D.W., you're too... Arthur-y.

Okay, Arthur, if you really want to scare me, then here's my list of things that are scary.

Doob-bunny?

Dark bunny.

I've never seen it, but I've heard it's scary.

Octopuses?

Octopuses!

If one fell in my bath, I don't know what I would do.

Right? Number three looks like a cookie.

It is.

Eating a gingerbread man. Ew!

How is that scary?

They're creepy.

Those little raisin eyes and fat legs.

Keep reading.

An eye?

Uni.

Losing uni.

No! Having to give uni to the Tibbles!

That'd be the scariest thing in the whole wide world!

D.W., why can't you be scared of normal stuff like aliens and cobwebs?

All right, how about we start with number two?

I'm... ready!

Ready for the octopus!

D.W., it's not scary if you know an octopus is coming.

You have to be surprised.

Oh, okay.

La-di-da-di-da.

I'm just sitting here in the tub, not waiting for an octopus.

It's an octopus!

Ah! Ah! Ah!

What is this?

It's a balloon with pipe cleaners.

Well, I didn't have an actual...

Oh, all right. Let's try Dark Bunny.

Okay, let's get this show on the road.

Before we start, do you need your blankie?

My blankie bit the dust a long time ago.

I tell you, Mary, I have to change my evil ways.

But how?

It's easy to be good, Dark Bunny.

Just start by spelling the word good.

G-O-O...

What? This can't be right.

Friday on Dark Bunny.

Mary Moo Cow pays the bad bunny a visit.

Being good is the best time...

No! Turn it off!

Are you sure he won't be mad that I ate him?

Trust me, I am 1,000% sure.

Okay, here goes.

Head...

Eyes... Not bad.

Arms...

Legs...

Arthur! It's alive! It's moving inside me!

It's a cookie, D.W.! Sit down!

He's mad! I can feel it! He's coming back up!

This is the last scary thing on your list.

It better work.

This is Uni.

And this is her clothes, horse, horse clothes barn.

And her schoolhouse.

And unicycle and pedal-action convertible.

And don't you dare even touch her!

Because as soon as I stop hiccuping, I want her back!

That didn't seem too scary.

It was terrifying!

Poor Uni.

Will I ever get to see her blue hair again?

Will I ever get to cray on her face?

Did you hear that?

Hear what?

I'm not hiccuping anymore.

Yahoo! We did it!

Hi, Arthur. Hi, D.W.

Look! No hiccups!

Good for you.

You know, I was just reading about the world record holder for hiccups.

A guy named Charles Osborne had the hiccups for 68 years.

Can you believe it?

Well, see ya!

Oh, no! Oh, no!

We're here waiting to see if D.W.Ui can set the world record for hiccups.

Tell me, how does it feel to be this close to making history?

Terrible!

If you can continue hiccuping for another 30 seconds, then it'll be officially 69 years since you started, which makes you...

Let me see... 69...

Old.

Right. Very old.

Let's watch and see, shall we?

What's wrong?

I can't hiccup anymore.

Now you decide to stop?

It's a bust, folks. Go home.

At least I don't need a Halloween costume this year.

I can just go as Hiccup Girl.

That's pretty scary, I have to admit.

Why aren't you wearing a costume, D.W.?

I am. I'm Hiccup Girl.

See?

Don't worry. Your hiccups won't last forever.

No. Just 69 years.

Give or take a few seconds.

I don't look scary at all. I look weird.

It's not like this is a competition or anything.

Because if it was, you'd come in last.

Let's go, okay? Candy Boy needs some candy.

Buster, are you sure you can see out of that mask?

Sure can.

Ow! Watch it!

Sorry, Brain.

Oh, wonderful costumes, everybody!

Hey, what happened to the lights?

Oops, my boom unplugged the lamp.

Hold on a sec, I have a flashlight.

Ah! Ah! Who are you? What do you want?

Help! It's me, D.W.! Can't you tell?

That is the disgustingest costume I ever saw.

You scared me and I'm never talking to you again!

Arthur! They're gone!

This time the hiccups are really gone! You did it!

I did? You mean, I really am scary?

Wee! Wee! Wee!

Wow, nice costumes. Just a moment.

Roar!

I knew it was too good to be true.

You're in them! You shoot them! You make them!

It's Postcards from You!

It's Postcards from You!

This postcard from you was made by kids at the Harvard Kent School in Charlestown, Massachusetts.

One hour later...

I think I ate too much.

I think I need to lay down.

Help! I really need help.

My stomach hurts.

Who are you people?

I'm Captain Nutrition.

And I'm Fitness.

Who are you people?

I'm Captain Nutrition.

And I'm Fitness Queen.

He's been eating too much junk food.

I found these.

Here, try some of these.

Our next postcard comes from kids at the Boys and Girls Club in Lewiston, Idaho.

Hey, two girls!

I found a shell!

There's many types of birds.

There's the chicken, the chickadee, the swallow, the sparrow, golden eagle, bald eagle.

What is that?

It's a feather.

No, it's a piece of fur.

What do you think it's from?

It might be a fox because I've seen foxes with that type of hair.

This could be, like, to a badger or something.

What do you think it is?

To see more postcards from you, visit pbskids.org.

They're out!

No way! I'm safe!

Told ya!

Isn't it annoying when someone is always right?

Francine usually is about sports.

With Finkie, it's music.

No, no, no!

You came in too quickly, you're behind and you're flat!

Let's try it again and with some enthusiasm!

And Buster?

Buster is almost never wrong when it comes to candy.

The chocolate is dry and the nuts are stale.

I'd say this candy bar was left here sometime in December, around the 15th.

Want it?

Ew!

Fortunately, no one is ever right about everything.

Excuse me, Arthur.

Excuse me, Arthur.

I hate to interrupt, but that last sentence was poorly constructed.
