It's time once again for the celebrities to help design the costumes! From what we saw last week, Kelly may be putting Louis in a loud floral print, and Michael's designs may have Anna cursing him in Russian. However, let's hope Michael didn't spend too much time working on wardrobe at the expense of practicing, because he only narrowly escaped elimination last week by winning a dance-off against Louie Vito. Two stars exited in a double elimination last week, and tomorrow night two more will go.

The way things are going, the Susan-Katherine catfight (er, gunfight) might come to rival the Hundred Years War — and don't look for a letup tonight. Don't expect last week's encounter with that tut-tutting motel maid to send Bree back to Orson, either, no matter how much of an affection-begging puppy he has been lately. But do expect to learn a little something more about the mysterious Bolens. And if you thought that Gaby was a bad mom last week, you ain't seen nothin' yet.

The argument could be made that every episode of the series is a Halloween episode, but some episodes are more so than others. This episode is classically frightful as it borrows heavily from a horror classic — Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. The book's famous Headless Horseman comes to life to haunt Melinda, and it's safe to say he's not going to want to cross over into the light. Adding more drama to the story is Melinda's fear when the book shows up at Aiden's school.

There's more scare fare in tonight's Halloween-themed affair when the branch organizes a haunted house for community children.

Remember the first day of school? It was an opportunity to make new friends, start fresh and look forward to another year of learning. But since it's the Pritchetts we're talking about, you can throw all that schmaltzy stuff out the window. Instead, Phil and Claire get off on the wrong foot once the kids are out of the house, and Jay and Gloria disagree on Manny's choice of attire. And speaking of firsts, Mitchell and Cameron are beside themselves when Lily gets her first bump on the head.
