Synopsis

Dunder Mifflin is hosting Halloween for the local children, with all employees dressed up and entertaining Children through a ride. Jim explains that every year, the warehouse holds an event for the children to celebrate where was once a "abandoned paper company". After annoying the employees with not knowing who they are dressed up as, Darryl decides all the children deserve candy as the ride comes near. However, the ride momentarily stops, when Michael scares the children by pretending to hang himself. Michael then explains the children that "suicide isn't the answer", and briefly states, in a talking head interview, that he doesn't understand why Christmas is the only holiday to have morals. Darryl becomes annoyed with Michael's display of horror and berates him for scaring the children.
