The park gang is seen in a courthouse on Halloween for jury duty and they are trying a werewolf for murder. He tries to convince them he’s innocent, but they have evidence he murdered. Pops asks to use the restroom to which the judge grants him permission. John asks as well and gets permission as well. The judge and a guard wonder if that was a good idea. John asks for toilet paper and uses the whole roll to pops horror and then attacks him and escapes to go to London. The guard enters and sees pops has turned into a werewolf. He tries to explain but the guard uses a whistle causing pops to run into a wall and fall unconscious. When he comes to, he sees he’s been turned into a werewolf and has been framed. Pops explained to his friends of what happened and while they believe him, they still wish to arrest him to have fun with it. He attacks a guard and escapes, but the people turn into an angry mob and chase him. He arrives at the airport. He escapes the mob by entering a plane and sees it's the same one John is on. They show no hard feelings towards each other, and the passengers are revealed to be werewolves.
