Transcript
{Front view of the downstairs TV, a Christmas special plays on the TV. The characters appear to be made of felt. We see Brundo as tears fall from his eyes.}
BRUNDO: {dejected} Oh, I lost all my magic.
ELF: Don't you see? The magic of Decemberween is inside everyone!
{The TV cuts to a shot of a Sheriff, with Brundo and the Elf visible in the background.
SHERIFF: And so they returned the sword of St. Olaf to its rightful owner, and discovered the true meaning of Decemberween. Buh-buh-buh-buh-bye, kids!
{Sheriff exits the scene, cut to a blue screen with snowflakes on it, as "The End!" appears on the screen.}
{Cut to a view of The Couch, with every main character (except Homsar and Bubs) sitting on or around it.}
STRONG SAD: Can someone please explain again what a mystical sword has to do with Decemberween?
{Cut to a close-up of Homestar sitting on the floor.}
HOMESTAR: You heard that nasty ol' puppet! The magic of Decemberween is inside all of us!
{Cut to Strong Bad, sitting on the couch with Strong Sad behind him.}
STRONG BAD: Man, that's not what Decemberween's all about!
STRONG SAD: Then I suppose you're gonna to tell us—
Cut back to the view of the whole couch.}
STRONG BAD: I'll tell you what Decemberween is all about!
STRONG SAD: {overlapping} ... what Decemberween is all about.
{Stong Bad begins singing, accompanied by music, doing hand motions as he sings.}
STRONG BAD: {Singing} It happens each Decemberween though some would say it doesn't. The best thing that you've ever seen, even better than your hot cousin!
{Music stops.}
MARZIPAN: Better than Debra?
STRONG BAD: {talking normally} Oh, maybe not better than Debra. {slower and more sultry} Ooh, Debra.
STRONG BAD: {singing} I'm talking about a magic man, who defies the laws of physics.
STRONG BAD: He turns Decemberween into DeTHemberween!
STRONG SAD: Tell us, man, who is it?
STRONG BAD: It's the Dethemberween Thnikkaman, and he'll make your dreams come true. So there ain't no beatin' that holiday feelin', when he says "Shut up" to you.
THE THNIKKAMAN: Yeah, shut up, kid!
STRONG BAD: When the sun goes down, he creeps into town, and borrows your hedge clippers. And when you're sleeping, safe and sound, he puts blank media in your slippers!
COACH Z: It was 8-Tracks in my day!
STRONG BAD: Sometimes he'll phone call random kids with discount travel packages!
STRONG BAD: {talking} Las Vegas? For 20 dollars a night? Thanks, Dethemberween Thnikkaman!
SHERIFF: Yes, he's the Dethemberween Thnikkaman. Flying through the night in an unmarked van. You never know what he'll bring us when you hear those high-pitched singers!
SINGERS: Here comes the Dethemberween Thnikkaman!
STRONG BAD: One, two, three!
ALL CHARACTERS: He's the Dethemberween Thnikkaman, and he'll make your dreams come true!
HOMESTAR: Do-Do-La-Do-Do-Do-Doo!
STRONG BAD: {Singing} There ain't no ceilin' on that holiday feelin',
ALL CHARACTERS: When he says "Shut up" to you!
THE THNIKKAMAN: Yeah, shut up! To one and all o' dang y'all!
HOMESTAR: Uh, just so we're all on the same page here, we are just talking about Bubs with a piece of paper taped to his chest, right? You guys? Bubs? Paper tape? Anybody?
{With one final note, the words "yeah, shut up! to one and all o' dang y'all!" appear in a night sky, written in stars. The word "back" is written in cursive in the lover left corner.}

Fun Facts
Real World References
- The TV special at the beginning is a parody of the numerous stop motion Christmas specials produced by Rankin/Bass such as 1964's Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. The sheriff's voice is very similar to that of Burl Ives, who voiced the similar-looking Sam the Snowman.
