SERPENTINE!
What is this? My only point of reference is a long sword defense.
Watch the original In-Laws--it's the preferred CIA method of running when dodging bullets, according to Peter Falk in the film.
Wesley: Hey. Hey, Gunn. Is something weird going on? … Charles, you just peed on my shoes. Gunn: I'll be damned. That's weird.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Two years ago we had near-mandatory Halloween participation at work. Luckily I had meetings to go to that meant I couldn't dress up, but I was still drafted to decorate our work area. We ended up winning second place in the building competition, but the organiser never redeemed the gift cert, as far as I can tell.

I can never remember the movie, but I can remember the moment--they go back to run the terrain again, right? Serpentine?
There's one guy in my instructor group at krav with whom I share a subsconscious trigger. Couldn't tell you what it is, in the light of day, but when we're taught a certain thing...we look at each other and say "Serpentine!" under our breath.
Since we're not in the bullet dodging business, I can't even begin to guess.

There used to be a great Halloween party I went to (before having a falling out with the couple who hosted). I went four different years as the SS guy from RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK (including one black glove and a clothes hanger I could fold together), No. 2 from THE PRISONER (Leo McKern edition), Dilbert, and Hunter S. Thompson. Those worked out pretty well, and were minimal in terms of muss and fuss (Dr. Thompson actually involved the most spending on special clothing - hat, shirt, shoes and cigarette filters).
Then I moved to Salem and Halloween turned into a whole magilla I just wanted to avoid.

Exactly. So funny. Stephen and I say this all the time. "Serpentine, Shel! Serpentine!"

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Clearly you should dress Em as the cutest little Pol Pot.
