Mel-O:  What are you doing napping, Baby Amanda and Baby Bill?
Baby Bill:  What's the rush, Mel-O?
Baby Amanda:  Yeah, I was having a dream -- full of treats.
 
 

Mel-O:  It's time to leave for our dance lesson.
Baby Bill:  But that's no reason to get yourself in a tizzy, Mel-O.
Mel-O:  Yes, it is!  We're going to brand new studio today.
 

Baby Amanda:  Who told you this, Mel-O?
Mel-O:  The CEO.  And she said I'm in charge and have to make sure that we all three arrive there on time and with the proper costumes.
 

Baby Amanda and Baby Bill in unison:  Costumes?  Ooh!  This sounds fun.

Mel-O:  Yes, we're to arrive promptly and have our special lesson with a Mr. Fred A. Scare.
 

Baby Amanda:  You must mean Fred Astaire, Mel-O.
Mel-O:  No, the CEO was very specific.  Now get moving.  We don't want to keep Mr. Scare waiting.

Baby Bill:  Sure, sure, Mel-O.
 

Baby Amanda:  It's getting spooky out.  Ooh!  I love Halloween!

Baby Bill:  The spookier the better, if you ask me.
Mel-O:  I'm going to remember those words.
 

Mel-O:  We're here.
Baby Amanda:  Are you sure this is the right address?  It looks a bit deserted to me.
Mel-O:  Yes, 1313 Mockingbird Lane is what the CEO wrote down for me.
Baby Bill:  You ring the bell, Mel-O.
 

Mel-O:  Glad to.  This is going to be soooooo great!

Good Evening!  I'm Fred A. Scare and my two brothers and I will be teaching your dance lesson tonight.
 

Baby Amanda gulps and stammers:  B-b-br-brothers?

Baby Bill squeaks out:  There are more -- l-l-l-li-like you?
 

Mel-O confidently speaks:  Good Evening, Mr. Scare.  We're at your disposal.
 

Baby Amanda whispers to Baby Bill:  I wish Mel-O hadn't said that.
 
 

Mr. Scare:  Your timing is impeccable, Mel-O.  We just finished with our last lesson of the evening -- before yours, of course.
 

Baby Amanda:  Who ARE those people?
 

Baby Bill:  "People" may not be the right word for them, Baby Amanda.
 
 
 

Mr. Scare:  Why, they're the Transylvania Twisters.  We do all their choreography.
 

Mr. Scare:  Lesson time.  Costumes all in place?  Feet ready to move?
Baby Amanda and Baby Bill and Mel-O in unison:  Ready when you are, Mr. Scare.
Mr. Scare:  Then, let's begin!
