Transcript
{The teaser begins with the silhouettes of the main characters standing in The Field in their costumes. Strong Bad, as usual, has an implausible and distinctly shaped costume on. The text "woon toon soon" "i mean ween." "ween toon soon" is visible at the bottom. The background, moon, and font from Homestarloween Party are used, and the silhouettes themselves are reminiscent of the characters' earlier designs. Crickets are heard in the background.}
STRONG BAD: Uh, what's going with this old background? And that perfectly round moon? What happened to our angle-y, jangular one?
{Hooting from an owl is heard.}
STRONG BAD: Whoa, and those terrible old sound effects? That are clearly someone just going "hoo hoo-hoo-hoo"? Something weird is going on here... methinks.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {in his old voice} Don't worry Strong Bad, everything's great!
STRONG BAD: Uh, that's ominous.
Easter Eggs
- Per tradition, there is a hidden message visible behind the silhouettes upon decompiling the Flash file: "you are error".
Fun Facts
Remarks
- Strong Bad's costume silhouette includes minor shading, similar to his Graboid costume from The House That Gave Sucky Tricks Teaser.
Inside References
- Strong Bad commenting on the background and sound effects being old is a fourth wall break.
- The page title imitates the speech pattern of The Umpire.
Real-World References
- The hidden message is a reference to "I am Error", an infamous quote from the video game Zelda II: The Adventure of Link.
- This is reminiscent of the references to Dodongo, an enemy from the same series, occasionally hidden within Flash files.
- Strong Bad is dressed as the Power Loader from the movie Aliens.
- Similarly to how this teaser is in the style of the first Halloween toon, Strong Bad's costume is from the same film series as in the first teaser.
