==Transcript==
''{Open on the wall of the basement of the Brothers Strong. A projector screen comes down and the lights dim. The first slide shows a fan dressed as Z Sabre brandishing a prop sword and standing in front of a space-themed background.}''

'''STINKOMAN:''' Are you asking to be included in this year's Halloween Costume Commentary even though you're clearly at a COMIC BOOK CONVENTIIIOOON?!

''{The next slide shows a man dressed as Manolios Ugly One, holding a microphone coming out from a stereo speaker.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa, this Manolios Ugly One ''{a thumbnail of Manolios Ugly One from the Teen Girl Squad comic appears for comparison}'' costume is perfect! Right down to the stains! ''{A red outline appears around the first stain}'' There's curry for breakfast, ''{a red outline appears around the second stain}'' stewed tomatoes for lunch, ''{a red outline appears around the third stain}'' and this one's just a ''festering wound''!

''{A talk balloon appears on the slide.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as Manolios Ugly One}'' Okay, everyone. Give it up for my little girl and her new boyfriend, Sir Hotbod Handsome Face. ''{a second talk balloon appears}'' ''{quickly}'' I gut you like sheep{{--}}

''{The next slide shows a girl dressed as the Hotgly One, holding a Strong Bad plush doll with a hard hat on its head. Party music plays.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' The Ugly One!

''{A thumbnail of The Hotgly One and Sir Hotbod Handsomeface slides in from the left for comparison.}''

'''THE UGLY ONE:''' Let's get it on like Diddy Kong!

''{The Hotgly One in the thumbnail begins dancing.}''

''{The next slide shows a Strong Bad plush doll wearing a crochet version of his Dr. Crygor costume from [[2022 Costume Pack Now Available]].}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You already crocheted my costume from this year's Halloween cartoon? That's awesome! ''{whispering}'' Psst: See me after the commentary so I can commission one o' them toilet paper cozies, y'know what I'm talkin' about? Maybe shaped like Marshie, ''{A crochet Marshie appears}'' or one of ''{A crochet version of one of Strong Sad's feet appears}'' Strong Sad's soolnds?

''{The next slide shows a fan dressed as the Blue Laser Commander, holding a Strong Bad plush doll and posing in front of a Strong Badia flag.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' We'll blow up my Halloween by being unrecognizable to almost everyone!

''{The next slide is a blue slide reading "And now..."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And now... four seconds for four Gregs.

''{The next slide is a montage of four images. The Four Gregs music plays. Top left shows Sci-Fi Greg giving a Vulcan salute. Top right shows an Open Source Greg sitting in a chair with a laptop. Bottom left shows three Gregs standing outdoors, with Open Source Greg represented by a T-Shirt on a box with a picture of him on a laptop. Bottom right is another Open Source Greg holding a laptop.}''

''{The next slide shows a fan dressed as Homsar, with her hands covered with extra-long white sleeves. The room behind her is very messy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' This is a blatant case of Homsar-baiting, in which the costume-ee stands in a super messy room, trying to get me to make a non-sequitir out of all the crap in the background. But I'm not falling for it. Or this is just a super-accurate Omsol costume. You guys remember Omsol?

''{An orange board book featuring Omsol standing in front of a bed appears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys remember Omsol? The charming Dutch cartoon character from the seventies?

''{The board book slides to the right, side-by-side with the fan costume image, as the music from [[little questions]] plays.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Dutch voice}'' Omsol! You must clean up your room! ''{in Homsar voice}'' Ahhhh, there's a heart-shaped hole in my tiny dog bed.

''{The next slide shows a fan dressed as the Troghammer, holding a large hammer.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's a pretty good Troghammer. Except he's more like a Trog... ''{A Trogdor!! The Board Game card appears, modifying text as Strong Bad speaks}'' giant toothpick stuck in a giant raspberry piece of Hubba-Bubba...er.

''{The next slide shows a man in a Strong Bad mask and boxing gloves at a party.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I've seen some varied and questionable approaches to my mouth this year. Like, this one's going ''{the mouth on the image animates}'' Ooh, I'm the only one who dressed up at this party I thought it was a costume party I guess it's not!

''{The next slide shows Strong Bad with the mouth part of the mask not covered, brandishing his boxing gloves.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And this one's getting into ''{the mouth animates with a sing-song voice}'' ''<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt">tertiary</span>'' ''{normal voice}'' territory.

''{The next slide shows a Strong Bad with the white part of his mask pointing upwards and slitted pupils in the green eyes. The man's mouth is visible above the mouth on the mask.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And old Beetle-bug Strong Bad here's got two mouths for some reason? ''{the mouth on the mask moves}'' One for regular talking, ''{The upper mouth moves, as Strong Bad talks like Sharpdene}'' and one for Sharpdene talking! That's right! ''{the mask mouth moves again; normal voice}'' That enough out of you.

''{The next slide shows Strong Bad standing next to someone dressed in a leopard suit in front of a porch with fake spider webs.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And this one dressed up as me doing Upper-Lip-Man for The Cheat! The Cheat loves Upper-Lip-Man!

''{Close-up on the Strong Bad mask, which has holes above the mouth for the face. Music plays as the mouth-holes animate.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' I'm a little guy who lives above your lips. Who's it gonna be? It's Upper-Lip-Man! Watch out for that Kool-Aid! ''{A pitcher of purple Kool-Aid with Marshie's face on it appears, with a "not" sign on it}'' Oh, and chapstick, too! ''{A black roll of chapstick reading "Chaps!" appears, with a "not" sign on top of it. A peach with a line of black stubble appears, with a "not" sign on it}'' Peach fuzz is quite a problem. Oh, Upper-Lip-Man, he loves you.

''{Zoom back out to the full image. A handful of confetti comes out from the leopard girl's hand as The Cheat cheers.}''

''{The next slide shows The Knight standing in front of an orange Halloween background.}''

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Finally, some love for the KoT-verse! You know, that knight has a name. It's Sir Toptingler. Which is why we just call him "The Knight". Anyways, there's some new canon for you weirdos who care about this kind of crap.

''{The next slide shows a fan in a mascot-sized Homestar Runner costume standing inside a kitchen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah, I love a good full-size walkaround Homestar Runner costume swallowing some poor kid whole. But the presence of those flop feet, ''{lines indicate the "flop feet"}'' the slop hat, ''{lines indicate the "slop hat"}'', and that hot glue gun, ''{line indicates a hot glue gun sitting on a plate on the counter}'' lead me to believe, this costume did not make it through Halloween night. Or out of that kitchen.

''{Another image of the same costume from a different angle appears.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing out of tune as the costume mouth animates}'' Everybody! La-dee-do-dey ''{the head falls off and lands on the floor}''

''{The next slide shows a fan wearing a face mask, blonde wig, Limozeen shirt, spiked bracelet and lace glove doing an evil fingers gesture.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing to the tune of "Because it's Midnite"}'' I've got the heart of some sweatpants, and the wings of a pretty impressive ''{zoom in on the shirt}'' apparently hand-painted bootleg Limozeen T-Shirt, ''{full image}'' because it's Halloween night! Oh, lemme fix that mask for you, too.

''{Close-up on the mask. Lines resembling Larry Palaroncini's mouth appear with a splat sound. The mouth is then colored in.}''

'''LARRY PALARONCINI:''' ''{with lots of reverb}'' Trick or treeeeeeaaaat!

''{The next slide shows a fan dressed as Rather Dashing standing on the grass in front of the window of an office building. A text parser types text in as Strong Bad speaks.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Look office park.

''{A text window appears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{reading}'' The office park is depressing and has no sidewalks or crosswalks nearby{{--}}

''{An image of Rather Dashing walking across a highway to an inn appears with a new text box.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{reading}'' {{--}}so you have to cut through the bushes and have to cross a five-lane divided highway ''{next box}'' to get to the Trogdornigan's across the street for your third lunch break with Nathan and the guys.

''{The next slide shows a man wearing the postcard for Two Cars, Tennessee on his backside, standing in a room full of movie posters and a shelf of VHS tapes.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You dressed up as the postcards for Two Cars, Tennessee ''and'' ''{next image shows his front side wearing the postcard for Downtown Pantsburg}'' fabulous Downtown Pantsburg?

''{Close up on the hand-painted postcard.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Maybe I can finally steal that bike!

''{A silhouetted Strong Bad, animated in the textured paint style, pants as he runs from behind one house and leaps onto the bike. His feet do not reach the pedals.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, man! Still won't budge! I wish Strong Mad were here.

''{The square silhouette suddenly gains a Strong Mad face.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' I'VE BEEN HERE ALL ALONG!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{in fright}'' Wah!

''{The next image shows a fan in a Homestar Runner costume, with an extra image emphasizing his shoes, with blue platform soles.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Folks have really upped their "Homestar's shoes" game. There's this one.

''{The next image shows a little girl in a Homestar costume, with an extra image emphasizing her booties.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And these.

''{The next image shows a small boy in front of a Diaper Sunrise taped to a window door. He appears to have blue plastic under his socks.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Not so much this one.

''{The next image is just the white boots, with the blue soles drawn in blue marker.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And this one.

''{The next image shows a female Homestar Runner with tall, cross-lace boots standing in The Field. The ''[[I Killed Pom Pom]]'' sting plays.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And THIS ONE! We're gonna just skip past ''{image shakes, musical sting}'' THIS ONE! We're never gonna think about ''{image shakes, musical sting}'' THIS ONE! Ever again!

''{The next image shows a man in a horned helmet holding a battle axe, standing next to a sign advertising battle axe lessons in a classroom. A flyer for Battle-Axe lessons is also present.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And now, we come to''{A wooden sign in the corner reads "Way Too Obscure Corner"}'' "Way Too Obscure Corner". 

''{The next image shows a girl dressed as Champeen standing on the stairs.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Man, another Champeen costume. With like a, custom-printed dress! ''{An image of the Dancin' Bubs game slides in from the left}'' That is some disproportionate love for a character that showed up one time in the background of a crappy Flash game.

''{The next image shows two fans in a paper frame, reenacting a page from The Ocelot and the Porridge Maiden. The man is wearing paper to look like the Statue of Liberty.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And then we have this... live nativity train wreck, ''{the relevant page fades in over the image}'' of a page from "The Ocelot and the Porridge Maiden". ''{the image disappears}'' Whuah. Ob-scuaa!

''{The next image shows a fan wrapped in paper to look like a lump, with a large hat on. "Scotty Titi" is written on the front.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And here's a kid in a top hat with a piece of paper taped to their eyeballs. A.K.A., ''{Scotty Titi appears with a splat}'' A Scotty Titi costume.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Haha! You're right, Scotty. He has gone soft. It's like he's afraid to make fun of people on the Internet!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Shut up! Don't talk to it!

''{The next image shows a man in a white office shirt with a cigarette in his mouth. He is wearing an ID badge identifying him as Flight Engineer Ted Averill.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' An impressive Flight Engineer Ted Averill ''{accompanying thumbnail appears}'' from SBASAF.

'''TED AVERILL:''' Oh, twicely dang. ''{Zoom in on the ID card}'' They got my name wrong again. ''{The name is modified to read "T'DAVERAL"}'' T'Daveral. Rhymes with Canaveral. ''{the signature is erased}'' My first name is... ''{hesitates as a name is typed above the ID name}'' Rheumatoid.

''{The next image is of a papier-mâché Strong Bad head.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Now that is a husky head! You're at least trying to match my bodily proportions!

''{The next image shows a Strong Bad with a much bigger mask, wearing a Strong bad T-shirt and posing with boxing gloves.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And this one's even closer! Look at all that husk! Huskin' it out on the left and the right. Huskin' it in a little on the twicetimes. While technically, my head-to-rest-of-body ratio is ''{an image of Strong Bad appears showing his head-to-body ratio. The head is one husk, and the body is also one husk}'' one to one. So in order to achieve a hundred percent accuracy,

''{The image of Beetle-Bug Strong Bad reappears, with lots of white space above it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' This fella, would have to look-a like this-a.

''{The head swells to the same length as the body with a splat. Sharpdene's mouth speaks.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as Sharpdene}'' Welcome back, as bug, as Beetle-Bug Strong Bad. I finally get my due. My name Sharpdene.

''{The next image is a recreation of The Cheat's rendition of the gallery from [[Disk 4 of 12 - Vampire's Castle]]. The music plays.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooh, you dressed up your basement wall as the gallery ''{a thumbnail appears in the corner}'' from Vampire's Castle. And you got the sledgehammer and the flask and the... WAIT A MINUTE! Are those eye holes?

''{Zoom in on two holes cut out from the overhang.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Like, this is an actual costume? Could you like, ''{back to full size}'' walk around like that? Trick or treating? Or did you just, go to a party and stand up against a wall?

'''STRONG SAD:''' What else do you do at parties?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Shut up.

''{The next image is a fan wearing a paper plate to look like Strong Sad, making a two-fingered gesture into a smartphone, wearing a Deflector Strong Sad shirt.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' This year I'd like to pay a little tribute to the unsung hero of Homestar Runner themed Halloween costumes, the paper plate.

''{The next image shows a fan wearing a Strong Sad costume with a paper plate mask, holding a Kick the Cheat doll in a shopping bag decorated as a soolnd.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Wha-oh paper plate!

''{Next image shows a young boy in a Coach Z costume with a paper plate medallion.}'''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' You're way more useful as a piece of a costume than you are as a plate!

''{Next image is another paper plate Strong Sad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' The potato salad always gets on my lap, and the beans, they drip right throouuuugh!

''{Next image is Strong Sad as The Deathly Pallor with a paper plate mask, playing Trogdor!! The Board Game.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' When I need a piece of a hastily-assembled Homestar Runner themed Halloween costume,

''{Next image is Strong Sad, standing in a field with a paper plate mask in front of an easel with a graph on it. He has a chainsaw and a plastic claw in place of hands.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{drum flourish, singing}'' I knew it was YOU!! Wait a minute, is this one an attempt at last year's tweet-'em-up challenge?

''{A thumbnail of the relevant tweet appears, detailing the challenge.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That is definitely a ''{close-up on the graph}'' cost-benefit analysis of the import/export of potash. ''{close-up on the claw hand}'' And that's a pretty good Mecha Strong Sad, ''{close-up on the chainsaw hand}'' got a little chainsaw hand, and a ''{close-up on the mask, which has a machine implanted in one of the eyes}'' laser eyeball. ''{Back to full image}'' Drone footage? I dunno. Without seeing it in motion, this could technically be like, six-foot stepladder footage, or, standing-on-a-shed footage, or, looking down from the deck footage. We'll say this one gets a ''{a gold seal appears with a splat}'' Provisional Accept-o.

''{The next image shows a metallic Strong Sad standing on a deck in front of a projector screen, with other props in the background representing other robots.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa, is this another attempt? I don't see any sign of drone footage. But boy did they make up for it with all this awesome robotic representation! ''{close-up on the Grape Nuts Robot}'' We got the Grape Nuts Robot, ''{close-up on Humidibot}'' Humidibot, ''{close-up to a wicker bench with a The Cheatbot and a Casio-head Strong Bad plush doll sitting on it}'' The Cheatbot, and for no reason, the Sweet Cuppin' Cakes version of me!

''{Cut to Mecha Strong Sad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And just look at that Mecha Strong Sad! He's got ''{zoom in on the head}'' evil glowing red eyes, ''{zoom in on the feet}'' armored aluminum carbonate soolnds, ''{close-up on the arms}'' and the finest in dryer duct appendages! ''{full image}'' Just look at him analyzing the crap out of that cost-benefit analysis Power Point! This one gets a ''{a gold seal appears with a splat}'' Roboto Accept-o.

''{The next image is a collage of several fans. One shows a woman dressed as Homestar with a child The Cheat. The next shows a man holding a paper Trogdor and a plush Strong Bad doll next to a man dressed as a burninated peasant.
