The setup

Three friends swear they are keeping Halloween low-key, but every hopeful moment of getting ready cuts straight to the wreckage of 4 a.m.

The premise

Here’s the bit.

At 8 p.m., Megan, Janelle and their friend dress up as a mouse, a cat and a wedge of cheese, take selfies and promise each other a chill night of dinner and a stop at a friend's place. The short keeps jumping ahead to 4 a.m., where those plans have fallen apart: a lost credit card, smeared whiskers, a screaming fight on the sidewalk, a friend furious that she got stuck being the cheese, and Megan stumbling down the street in the gray heels she was so proud of. Janelle's vow not to drink ends with her vomiting onto a pizza while Megan propositions the men at the next table, until the pizzeria's owner throws them out and threatens them with a hose. Back home, the women congratulate themselves on a fun girls' night just as a shirtless man painted green like the Hulk pops up beside them, and Megan reappears with green smeared around her mouth.

Say it with us

Highly quotable.

You guys got to be cute, and you made me be the cheese.

I think I'm not going to drink tonight.

I'm so glad it was just us girls.

    Megan

    Oh, yeah, you should do yellow for the cheese.

  23. 01:14

    Janel

    Hey, if you want to be a cat, too, like, I have extra.

  24. 01:17

    The Cheese

    Oh, that's okay. I like being the cheese. Why did you make me be the cheese? You guys got to be cute, and you made me be the cheese. Why the ?

  25. 01:26

    Megan

    To make the shoes cute, it was so hard to find gray ones that matched.

  26. 01:34

    Uh, miss, please wait.

  27. 01:37

    Megan

    I got it now. Come on, wait for me.

    Good idea, Janelle.

  30. 01:53

    The Cheese

    That's so smart, Janelle.

    Megan

    Baby, you want some of this?

  33. 02:02

    Pizza Guy

    That's it. You and your drunk friends got to get out of my restaurant now.

  34. 02:04

    No, you cannot yell at her.

  35. 02:07

    Pizza Guy

    Get out of my store, okay, before I turn the hose on you.

  36. 02:09

    Oh, yeah, you would love to do that, you nasty pervert. You heard that?

  37. 02:20

    Spooky. I look cute. Oh, my God, every year?
