Transcript
{The words "Some Halloween Costumes" are displayed at the top of the screen against a blue background. Dominating the screen is a picture of a man dressed as Strong Bad typing at a computer displaying a Strong Bad E-mail.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} "Dear Strong Bad, how do you type with pieces of crappy red foam taped around your hands? Sincerely, Dress-up Donny." Come on, man. Give me a little effort here. The gloves. G-get some real gloves.
{The picture changes to someone in a Strong Bad mask and boxing gloves punching a man with a papier-m�ch� Homestar head and a Homestar shirt.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Here I am beating up some kind of... mashed potato man. Uh, they got my head pretty good in this one, 'cept I'm not sure what that junk in the front is. I clearly don't have any junk in the front.
{The picture changes to a man in a green jumper and trousers wearing a large medallion like Coach Z's..}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} This guy's Coach Z costume's all right, but what he really nailed was the condition of Coach Z's apartment. That place looks like a sty hole. Ooh, pretzels!
{The picture changes to an illuminated pumpkin with The Cheat carved into it.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} So let me get this straight: you guys paid a squirrel to come and gnaw The Cheat into your pumpkin? That's a waste of money. A colossal waste of money. The squirrel's rates are... pretendous.
{The picture changes to a model of Trogdor above a banner reading "BURNiNATiNG", flanked on either side by people with jack-o-lanterns.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Well, something's gone horribly wrong here, 'cause, uh... these guys either let Trogdor's beefy arm atrophy, or... it turned into a... buffalo wing.
{The picture changes to a pumpkin painted to resemble Strong sad's head sitting on a windowsill.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Ah, nothing brightens up a window quite like Strong Sad's severed head.
{The picture changes to a model of Homestar.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Oh, man, if I saw that thing runnin' around my back yard, I'd get out the compound bow. And then I'd tell it to take those Kleenex boxes off its feet.
{The picture changes to an assortment of illuminated pumpkins with Homestar Runner images carved into them: the H*R logo, The Cheat, Strong Bad, Homestar, Strong Sad, Strong Mad and Coach Z.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Whoa, those things rule! These are, like, the talismans of power! You know, like, when they're all together they're a source of unspeakable evil, but then they all get separated and you have to collect them, so, like... the first board would be the jungle board, and maybe the second board is Ice World, {his voice begins to fade away} and then there's probably a desert world in there...
{The picture changes to a man wearing a Strong Bad mask and boxing gloves making out with a girl. To the left is a sign saying "HIGH FIVES" and to the right, one saying "MAKE OUTS".}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Whoa! That guy's totally getting to first base in front of, like, the dining hall, and it's all because he's dressed like me! Unless that girl's trying to suck out my eyeballs...
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {voiceover, spookily} See... see!
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Shut up!
{The picture changes to two people dressed as Marzipan and Homestar, standing in a field in front of some trees.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover; laughs} Oh, geez... you know, I've always preferred the snub-nosed Marzipan to the long-necked variety. {sings} Oh, people with too much time on their hands, oh, there's people with way too much time on their hands...
{The picture changes to three people in a living-room dressed as Homestar, Strong Bad and Strong Sad.}
STRONG BAD: Barrel-chested Homestar comes with everything you see here! Paper-boxing-gloves Strong Bad not included. Dumpy Robert Smith action figure sold separately. Cozy Americana country d�cor available at fine stores everywhere.
{"Back" appears at the bottom left of the screen.}
Fun Facts
- The picture of the guy reaching first base is a reference to the Strong Bad character video, in which Strong Bad orders males to queue on the left for high fives and females on the right for makeouts.
- Homestar's "See... see!" is a reference to Malloween Commercial, in which he claims that this is the noise that eyeballs make.
- Strong Bad's comments on the pumpkins that resemble "talismans of power" may be a reference to the anime series Dragonball. In that show, seven orange dragonballs are separated and, when brought together, they summon an ancient, powerful dragon. The talismans may also be a reference to the show Jackie Chan Adventures. In all likelihood, it is not this deep, and is merely a reference to a generic concept that has been used in numerous stories and video games.
- It seems that the link to Fan Costume Commentary, when clicked on in the Toons menu, does not send you to Fan Costume Commentary, it links you to Malloween Commercial.
- On 10/13/04 This problem has since been corrected, and the link now works properly.
- "Dumpy Robert Smith Action Figure" is an obvious reference to Robert Smith, lead singer and frontman of goth-rock band The Cure (which Strong Sad is a fan of), known for his quite liberal use of makeup.
