Josiah wants a quiet Halloween shift at the Succotash Hut, but Deja has a plan for the two of them to work in a new location, eat all of their favorite snacks, and encourage “Josie” to finally speak to the co-worker he’s crushed on for three years, “The Fudge Girl.” But the night proves to be much more of a bonding adventure than even Deja anticipated.
