{Cut to the four Gregs.}

OPEN SOURCE GREG: Based on past experiences, I believe I am the aforementioned plump kid from that song!

{Cut to an image of Brainkrieg's drummer. He has a decomposing pumpkin splattered onto his head and shoulder.}

BRAINKRIEG DRUMMER: Sadly, you are not.

{The garage door closes with a crash, the screen dims, and "the end." appears in the middle of the screen.}

Easter Eggs

  • Clicking on the period after "the end" brings up a scene where Brainkrieg end their show.
BRAINKRIEG: Thank you very much! We are BRAINKRIEG! Next up is my mom getting back from book club! {speaking more calmly} So we all need to get out of the way so she can pull in. That tennis ball tells her how far to pull up. So she doesn't hit the trash cans again.

Fun Facts

Trivia

  • Cheerleader's shirt says "(s)hallow (t)ween".

Remarks

  • As they did in their previous video, Brainkrieg mentions Christmas lights instead of Decemberween lights.
  • This video uses the old Flash paper background just like their last video.

Goofs

  • When the bassist looks at Cheerleader during the pause in the song, the wings on the design of his T-shirt suddenly disappear.
  • When the toon zooms in on the house in the beginning, the paper background stays static.
  • When the solo begins, the paper background moves to the left, and back at the end.
  • The text "jugga jigga wug jigga jigga wug jigga wugga jug" moves out of place in various parts of the solo.

Inside References

  • One of the pumpkins has Abraham Lincoln's silhouette on it.
  • Eggs feature prominently in this toon.
  • The decomposing pumpkin was previously seen in Pumpkin Carve-nival.
  • Cheerleader's excitement to be at the Brainkrieg concert is based on an Easter egg from death metal.
  • "An apple is not candy!" is a throwback to The House That Gave Sucky Treats where one of the items you can give to Strong Bad is an apple.
  • The guitarist mentioned his Mom, and by inference, the drummer's Mom doesn't give out good candy on Halloween.

Real-World References

  • The Taurus is a line of sedans and station wagons manufactured by Ford since 1986. The car in the video resembles a third generation wagon.
  • The Brainkrieg logo near the end of the video resembles the Dead Kennedys logo.
