The Halloween Tree (1993 TV Movie)

Andrew Keegan: Wally

Quotes 

• Wally : [Pip's a gargoyle and trying to speak]  It's gargoyle language, he can only speak when the rain comes out of his mouth, or the wind blows over his teeth.

• Wally : Oh my gosh!

• Tom : [reading]  Dear Tom and all the gang.

  Wally : Didn't mean to spoil your Halloween, off to the hospital.

  Jenny : Something about appendicitis. Don't worry, I'll catch up. Signed...

  Tom , Wally , Jenny : Pip!

  Tom : Appendicitis?

  Wally : You could die from that, right?

  Tom : P.S., start without me, I'll catch up. Ready. Set. Go?

• Jenny : Notre Dame! I think we've built Notre Dame!

  Wally : But this can't be Notre Dame! Can't you see what's missing? Monster faces!

  Tom : You know, stone devils.

  Ralph : Marble demons!

  Mr. Moundshroud : Gargoyles. Ever wonder why we like dressing up as monsters, beasts and ornery critters?

• Tom : [arriving at Pip's house]  Huh?

  Ralph : Impossible.

  Jenny : It can't be!

  Wally : What?

  [the house is scarcely decorated] 

  Jenny : Where're the jack-o-lanterns?

  Ralph : And the corn shucks on the porch?

  Wally : And monsters clinging to the roof!

  Tom : [running around to the back]  Something's wrong, awfully wrong!

  [they turn the corner and see Pip being loaded into an ambulance and rushed to the hospital] 

• Tom : There's a shortcut to the hospital.

  Wally : No, not *that* shortcut, Tom.

  Tom : Come on, you heard him: ready, set, go!

• Tom : [sees Pip running down the ravine]  It's Pip! PIP!

  Wally : [aghast]  Hey, I can see right through him!

  Ralph : Nah, it's just this funny moonlight.

  Tom : The important thing is he's not sick.

  Wally : But what about the hospital?

  Tom : Don't you get it? It was a joke all the time, the ambulance, that note on the door, what a trickster! Hey Pip! You sure had us fooled! Where's your Halloween costume?

• Mr. Moundshroud : Who are you?

  Tom : The name's Tom Skelton, sir.

  Mr. Moundshroud : Know why you're wearing bones, boy? Bah! Didn't think so. And you?

  Ralph : My friends call me...

  Mr. Moundshroud : Why so dressed up in an ancient mummy's rags, huh? Time's up! And you, the big one!

  Wally : Me, sir?

  Mr. Moundshroud : Why a monster's face? And what about you, girl?

  Jenny : Jenny!

  Mr. Moundshroud : Why are you wearing the costume of a witch? No thoughts, aye?

  [moans] 

  Mr. Moundshroud : I'm wasting my breath. All dressed up for All Hallow's Eve, but you don't know why, or what, or even from where!
