There's that pumpkin patch again.

What do you say we stop at one more place before home?

(Both chattering) You know, it's-- It's getting so late.

Nick and Sally still have costumes to make, so let's not.

There's time.

There's time.

And you can't really have Halloween without making pumpkins into scary jack-o'-lanterns.

(Both laughing) Oh, well... (Gulping) Super-duper, then.

Looks like there's nothing stopping us.

Well, I'll be.

You're frightened of pumpkins.

Who, me?

Pumposterous!

I'm the Cat in the Hat.

I'm not frightened of anything.

It's okay if you are, Cat.

Everyone's frightened of something.

Okay, it's true!

If there's one thing of which I'm incredibly wary, it's those pumpkin-faced jacks!

They're so terribly scary.

Cat, we know what it's like to be frightened of something.

And we also know the best way to get over it.

You mustn't let fear stop you from having big fun.

That's not the way to get big things done.

It's time you learned a lot about pumpkins.

Okay.

That sounds like fun.

Cat, land here.

Look at all these pumpkins.

(All cheering) (Whimpering) The first thing to do at a pumpkin patch is choose the perfect pumpkin for you.

(Things chattering) There's so many different shapes and sizes.

Don't worry, Cat.

We'll help you choose.

Pumpkins are not scary at all.

(Roaring) Aah!

Oh!

But jack-o'-lanterns?

Aah!

Just when the cat was coming around.

CAT: Well, look at those upside-down smiles.

(Laughing) Hmm?

There's nothing here of which I need to be leery.

These pumpkin-faced jacks are really quite cheery.

(Both laughing)
