"You don't need to be sorry. I thought it was really impressive."

...

The next morning was Halloween. Liv came downstairs all dressed and ready in her karate kid costume.

"What are you wearing?" Steve asked.

"Uh, my costume." Liv said in a duh tone.

"Not to school. Everyone's gonna make fun of you." Steve told her.

"But-"

"Liv, i'm trying to save you from embarrassment." Steve put his fingers on the bridge of his nose.

Liv sighed. "Fine."

Liv ran back upstairs and quickly changed into a different outfit.

"Ready?" Steve asked as she came back down.

Liv nodded. "Yup."

The two siblings left their house and got into Steve's car.

...

Once Liv and Steve arrived to school, Liv got out of the car and walked over to the boys.

"Hey, guys." Liv waved.

"Hey, Liv." Will greeted.

The other three boys just ignored her.

"Because I'm Venkman." Lucas told Mike.

"No, I'm Venkman." Mike pointed to himself.

"Why can't there just be two Venkman's?" Will tried to make peace.

"Because there's only one Venkman in real life. We planned this months ago. I'm Venkman, Dustin's Stantz, you're Egon, and you're Winston." Mike explained.

"What's happening?" Liv whispered to Will.

"Lucas and Mike are wearing the same costume." Will whispered back.

Liv nodded. "Ah."

Lucas shook his head. "I specifically didn't agree to Winston."

"Yes, you did!" Mike yelled out in frustration.

"I don't think he did." Will said.

"No one wants to be Winston, man." Lucas told him.

"What's wrong with Winston?" Mike squeaked.

"What's wrong with Winston?" Lucas repeated. "He joined the team super late, he's not funny, and he's not even a scientist!"

"Yeah, but he's still cool." Mike argued.

"If he's cool, then you be Winston." Lucas reasoned.

"I can't!" Mike said.

"Why not?" Lucas asked.
