I’d seen an abridged airing and didn’t know until adulthood that Charlie Brown got more than one rock. Personally, I find it more depressing than funny. It’s one thing for him not to get any valentines (even from Linus); it’s another thing for the adults in the neighborhood to ruin a kid’s Halloween on purpose. Did they even know it was him, or did they keep rocks on hand just in case someone came with a sucky costume? The MST3K cast said it best: “Did Charlie Brown poison the town water supply?”
realistically speaking, if anyone had the gall to give a kid a rock on halloween instead of candy they would immediately get that rock back, through their window.
“its the great lawsuit,charlie brown”… in his mind Jason just wants to be the attorney and get the cash for that new WoW expansion pack or something like that.

Too bad Jason can’t write to Charles Schulz to come up with that suggestion; “Sparky” died fifteen years ago.

Snoopy, the Legal Beagle could represent him. The attorneys and judge would speak like the teachers- wanh-wanh-wanh-wah

Jason striking a “Pearls Before Swine” pose in the last panel. (Obviously this came first, but still.)

I never did understand why everyone was so mean to Charlie Brown.
