''{Homestar's head pops up slowly}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Oh, hello.  This year, we're going to do things a little differently.  We're all coming to your house to trick or treat!  So just answer the door, pick a treat, and drag it on top of us.  We'll do the rest.  Ok, bye!

'''COACH Z''' as Humpty Hump:

'''Intro'''- Doot-doo-doot-doo, and I'll drink up all the Hennessey ya got on your shelf, but first let me introduce myself.  My name is Coach Z.  Pronounced with an "Oach Z."

*'''Jujyfruits'''- Ooh, Jorgyfruits!  Oh I mean Jurjyfrorts.  I mean GEOORGIEE FRORRGEEE.  George Foreman?

*'''Boston Baked Beans'''- Ya know, I once knew a fellow in Boston 'could tell ya the time of the day at any time of the day. Ya'd say, "Say there Boston, what's the time of day?" And he'd say, "10:30." And you'd look at him and say, "But Boston, it's half past noon!" And he'd look back at ya and say, "Well, those are the breaks."

*'''Cherry Clan'''- Da Cherry Clan. Are they related to the Wu Tang Clan? 'Cause ya know, their first album was the baermb! In fact, you don't have a copy of The 36 Chambers in there, do ya? 'Cause I'd love to listen to it right now. Ya mind if I come in?

'''THE KING OF TOWN''' as Hagar the Horrible:

'''Intro'''- Trick or treat!  I'm horrible! ''{Strong Bad says: You got that right!}''

*'''Butterscotch'''- Ooh, butterscotch!  Would you mind melting those down and pouring them over a ham?

*'''Fun size Butterfinger'''- That's it? Well, if you think that I'll accept this paltry treat just because it has "butter" in the name... well, you'd be right. Give it here.

*'''Stick of Butter'''- Ooh, a stick of butter! (noisily scarfs the stick of butter) (still with butter in his mouth): Trick or treat. Again, please.

'''STRONG MAD''' as William "Refrigerator" Perry and '''THE CHEAT''' as Punchy:

'''Intro'''- The Cheat: Nahmah!  Strong Mad: IS YOUR REFRIGERATOR PERRY RUNNING?

*'''Gravel'''- Strong Mad: ''{staring at it, puzzled.}'' HALLOWEEN!

*'''Pop Rocks'''- ''{The Cheat eats the Pop Rocks}'' Strong Mad: No...  ''{The Cheat takes a drink of cola}'' NO! NOO!! ''{The Cheat's head explodes.}''

*'''Rocks'''- (Strong Mad eats the rocks, then bites off half a can of cola. The Cheat's head explodes.)

'''MARZIPAN''' as Joey Ramone:

'''Intro'''- Hey, ho!  Let's go!  Hey, ho!  Trick or treat!

*'''Candy Corn'''- Candy corn!?  Do you have any real corn?  Or Indian corn?

*'''Rice Cakes'''- Hey, rice cakes! I like to eat them without water.

*'''Steak'''- Is this a joke? It's not funny. ''{Strong Bad drops three steaks into her bag}''

'''THE POOPSMITH''' as Lazer Tag and '''POMPOM''' as Michael Moore:

''They don't have an intro, as neither can really speak.''

*'''Mary Jane'''- They look at each other, then The Poopsmith holds up a sign that says "Give us something good instead". Pom Pom nods.

*'''Chick-O-Stick'''- The Poopsmith dunks it in a bucket labelled "dippin stuff", which is looks suspiciously like excrement. He offeres it to Pom Pom, who shakes his head.

*'''Astropop'''- The Poopsmith shoots his gun at Pom Pom's "I <3 Flint" button. The laser bounces off and hits The Poopsmith in the Lazer Tag chest sensor. He falls off the side of the steps.

*'''Pumpkin'''- The classic Zelda "You found a secret!" music plays. The pumpkin is firmly lodged in The Poopsmith's mouth.

'''HOMSAR''' as Wimpy: {''Easter egg. Only accessible if you give The Poopsmith and Pom Pom the pumpkin.''}

''("You unlocked a secret character!" is displayed on the door.)''

'''Intro'''- I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for some candy today!

*'''Shavin' Creem'''- Yaaah, I'm the original ladies' man!

*'''Black and Orange Candies'''- If you give me a treat, make sure that it's sweet, and I'll eeeeeat it!

*'''Wrench'''- Oh no, I think this is my favorite!

'''STRONG BAD''' as Carmen Sandiego:

"Open the freakin' door!"

'''Intro'''- Where in the world is my candy?

*'''Fun Size Butterfinger'''- Oh, a "fun size" candy bar?  Tell me this: what's fun about eating less candy?  Maybe if you gave me an entire bag of them it would be fun.  The only fun I'm going to have with this thing is smearing it all over your door when I leave. (If you choose this, check the door when Strong Sad shows up!)

*'''Marshmallow Bunny'''- Why you lazy crap for crap. All you've got is old freakin Easter candy? This thing's rock hard, man. Well, you just made it onto my "People I gotta egg today" list. (He shows you the list: Ronnie Pudding, King of Town, Kewpie Dan, Homestar and you lazy crap for crap.)

*'''Apple'''- What is this crap? What are you, a dentist? Or a hippie? Or some kind of hippie dentist?!

'''STRONG SAD''' as Andy Warhol:

'''Intro'''- Trick or treat, I guess...

*'''Necco candy wafers'''- Oh, Necco Wafers.  These remind me when I used to eat the colored chalk when I was in school.  I was sick for a year and nearly died.  

*'''Baking Chocolate'''- Oh! Baking Chocolate! I used to eat this stuff when there was no chocolate in the house. And now... it's my only friend...

*'''Campbell's Soup'''- Oh. While I do appreciate the relevance of this, given my costume, but I was kind of hoping for something that I wouldn't have to prepare. You know, like Necco Wafers or baking chocolate...

'''BUBS''' as Mars Blackman:

'''Intro'''- Please, baby please, baby baby baby please! Give me some candy!

*'''Mallo Cup'''- I got a shallow gup and a callow dup, somebody give me dat Mallow Cup.

*'''Dum-Dums'''- Oh! I'm such a big dum-diddy-dum-diddy-diddy-diddy-dum-dum...my.

*'''Bazooka Gum'''- I never understand the comics that come in this bubble gum. I mean, the first frame is some guy saying, "Look out, the sky is falling!". And the second frame is some guy getting hit on the head with a rock (he unfolds the comic and shows it to you. The second frame is captioned *The Guy In The Sweater got hit on the head with the rock*). And I'm sitting there going, "What the heck just happened?", and before I know it, I swallowed my bubble gum!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''' as The Greatest American Hero: (knocks incessantly until you open the door)

'''Intro'''- ''{singing}'' Believe it or not, I'm walkin' around, I never thought I could trick or tre-e-eat!

*'''Smarties'''- All wight, Smarties!  Marzipan said to eat lots of these this year.  I'm not really sure why she said that though.  Umm....... trick or treat!

*'''Circus Peanuts'''- (Dances and sings a circus theme.) (You close the door, but the doorbell rings. Homestar is still dancing.)

*'''Handful of Change'''- Oh. A handful of change. I guess I can use this to go, uh, buy some candy. So...thank you for adding a step to my Halloween process.

''{The discussion:}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' Hey Strong Bad, I really like your costume.  The Spanish Inquisition...that's great.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Look, for the last time, I'm not The Spanish Inquisition, I'm not Cab Calloway, and I'm not Strong Bad wearing a yellow turtleneck!  I'm Carmen freakin' Sandiego!

'''MARZIPAN:''' I like Cab Calloway.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, Poopsmith, that's the worst costume I ever saw.  I mean, you're Lazer Tag?  What, are you supposed to be dressed up as the product or is it more abstract than that, like you're supposed to be the concept of Lazer Tag?  Come on man, you know you just found that old crap in a trunk in your basement.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:'''  Ease off, Strong Bad.  He's not the guy that dressed up as a ''girl'' two years in a row!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh ho ho ho, you asked for it, King.  ''{Strong Mad punches The King of Town}''

'''BUBS:''' Did any of you guys go to that house that was givin' out change?  I changed my costume and went back ten times!  I made 35 dollars!

'''STRONG SAD:'''  Did you guys go to that house where they let you into this big room and there's all these people wearing black hoods and they ask you these questions about life and existence and if you answer them wrong you get eternal damnation, but if you answer them right you get a Twizzler?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Um...no.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Nope.

'''COACH Z:''' No.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' No.

'''BUBS:''' Nope.

'''THE CHEAT:''' Meh!

'''STRONG MAD:''' NO!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh.  Never mind.

'''MARZIPAN:''' I like your costume, Strong Sad, but you weren't invited this year.

'''COACH Z:''' Say, Pom Pom, check out this funky bass groove!  A doo'rear, a doo'ri, a doo'rear, a doo'ri! '' {Grooves around a little} ''

'''HOMESTAR:''' Have they voted yet?  I really have to pee.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, and the Poopsmith's not smelling any rosier, either.  

'''HOMESTAR:''' Oh, oh!  I've got an idea.  Let's totally freak 'em out.  Let's repeat the stuff that we just saaaaid!

''{loops back to the start of the discussion}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*When Strong Bad's egging list is up, click on "kewpie dan" to see.. something. (Note: although this egg appears to be glitched it was intended to open [http://www.homestarrunner.com/kewpiedan.html this page] in a new window.)
*When Pom Pom and the Poopsmith knock at your door, move the pumpkin that's sitting on your porch onto them to unlock Homsar.
*In the final scene when all of the characters are talking, you can roll over the skull, pumpkin and moon to see funny captions.
**Skull: Get offa me!
**Pumpkin: No costume. Just a pumpkin.
**Moon: Just pick a freakin' character already!

== Fun Facts ==
*[[Strong Bad's Treat Snatcha]] is the game you can play while waiting for the cartoon to load. But if you ''have'' to play it, your connection is too slow!
*Also, when you drag the pumpkin onto Pom Pom and the Poopsmith, the music that is played is from the Zelda games, usually when you unlock something.
**Specifically, the sound played is from "A Link to the Past".
*Ronnie Pudding, the first name on Strong Bad's list of houses to egg, is the name of Spinal Tap's first bassist.
*If you watch in the background when the King of Town shows up, his little [[The Hornblower|trumpet player]] rides by as BC on his stone unicycle.
*When the King of Town shows up, the knight is wearing a piece of blue paper labeled "Idaho". This is a Simpsons reference, when Ralph wore the same thing as a pageant for the United States.
*Strong Bad greets you with "Where in the world is my candy?" while in the Carmen Sandiego costume. This is because Carmen Sandiego comes from a TV show and computer game called "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?"
*"IS YOUR REFRIGERATOR PERRY RUNNING?" could be a reference to [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 4]]. (Or maybe it's the other way around.)
*In the final scene where all of the characters are talking, Strong Bad's caption is misspelled: it should read "Carmen Sandiego", not "Carmen San Diego".
*Bubs' line when you give him the dum-dum is a reference to [[A Jumping Jack Contest]] & [http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0091939/ She's Gotta Have It].
*Marzipan notes at the end that Strong Sad wasn't invited this year. She is talking about the previous Halloween toon, [[Homestarloween Party]], in which they uninvite Strong Sad for the following year.
*Strong Sad's comment on receiving the Campbell's soup is a reference to Andy Warhol's painting ''Campbell's Soup''.
*Bubs' comment about the house that was giving out change is interesting: he went there eleven times and made 35 dollars, meaning that the inhabitant was giving out on average $3.18 per trick-or-treater - which is surprisingly generous. They may have been just giving random amounts though.
*"Please baby, please baby, baby baby please" is a reference to Mars Blackmon's (who Bubs is dressed up as) exact same line in [http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0091939/ She's Gotta Have It].
*The skull's line at the end when you hold the mouse pointer over it ("Get offa me") is a quote from Murray, the Demonic Talking Skull from the ''Monkey Island'' games.
*Marzipan's greeting is a reference to the seminal Ramones song "Blitzkrieg Bop."
*Homsar's greeting is a play on Wimpy's famous line "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today."
*Homestar's greeting is sung to the tune of (and is a play on) the theme song to the TV show [[Wikipedia:The Greatest American Hero|The Greatest American Hero]].
*Marzipan may have dressed up as Joey Ramone in tribute, as Joey Ramone had died earlier that year.
*The joke involving The Cheat consuming Pop Rocks and soda is a reference to an urban legend that states that Mikey, the Life cereal mascot, died when consuming Pop Rocks and soda caused his stomach to explode.  Eating Pop Rocks and soda will only cause mild indigestion and the actor who played Mikey is alive and well. [http://www.snopes.com/horrors/freakish/poprocks.htm More info]
*Marzipan's costume has a small hole in it and you can see her pink flesh beneath, giving further evidence to the theory that her body is actually "skirt" shaped.

*When you go back, it takes you to Main
