!! Tabitha "Tabby" Weiss and Lee Winston
->'''Portrayed By:''' Maria Paikin and Gino Giacomini
A pair of troublemakers whom are the subject of revenge for Drew and Walker.
----
* AdaptationDyeJob: Tabby in the book has straight blonde hair and green eyes. In the tv episode, she has wavy chestnut-brown hair and brown eyes.
* AdaptationalUgliness: Lee in the book is mentioned to be tall and have a warm smile. The actor for him in the episode is very short, average-looking, and sort of chubby.
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Averted with Tabby throughout the end. She is very proud of her looks and her Halloween outfits. But throughout the book, her costume gets ruined, she gets very out of breath, and candy ends up sticking in her hair.
* NotSoAboveItAll: When the Pumpkin Heads first appear, Tabby and Lee aren't frightened at all and think it's rather pathetic, even though the costumes they're wearing are rather impressive and ''shoot fire out of their heads''. However, they really start to lose it as the hijinks ensue, and they eventually run off screaming.
* ProperlyParanoid: When the Pumpkin Heads first appear, Tabby and Lee instantly think that they're [[spoiler: just Shane and Shana with very impressive costumes. They were never far from wrong there]].
* RaceLift: Lee is specifically stated to be African-American in the book. In the episode, he appears to be Caucasian, and possibly Italian considering his actor's name.
* RichBitch: Tabby is implied to be one. She likes to dress up in fancy rich costumes, and comments how some people are cheap.
* {{Troll}}: Definitely. They act as if they're victims of a ''break-in and robbery at their own party''.
* TheUnintelligible: Drew can hardly understand Lee, since he's usually chewing a wad of gum when he talks. This is averted in the episode, in which he can speak just fine.
