[edit] Transcript

{The wall of Strong Bad's basement is visible, and a projector screen comes down from the ceiling. The room lights turn off as an offscreen slide projector turns on, filling the screen with white light. The projector displays the first slide: A man dressed as Homestar, a woman dressed as Marzipan holding a cardboard Carol, and a small child on "Homestar"'s lap dressed as Strong Bad.}

STRONG BAD: Aw, look. It's Homestar, Marzipan, and their adorable baby— WAIT A MINUTE! Homestar plus Marzipan does not equal Strong Bad! It equals...

{The next slide appears: A man wearing a yellow hat clad in a large cardboard "Homsar" shirt, photographed in mid-yell.}

STRONG BAD: ...this guy!

HOMESTAR RUNNER: All right, settle down there, son.

STRONG BAD: Ahh! Don't call me that!

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ahh—! Sounds like somebody needs a juice box.

STRONG BAD: Shut up, da—I mean, Homest—I mean, get outta here!

{The next slide appears: A young man seated at a computer, wearing a hat shaped like a "Del" key and holding a card in front of him.}

STRONG BAD: Oh, a kid dressed up as a card-carrying Deletehead! Deleted!

Strong Bad says - Listen tightly as I unload on all the unfortunate saps that decided to try and dress up like me or somebody less cool than me for Halloween this year. I also announce the winners of the Costume Contest. Man, those winners are losers. But seriously, thanks to all the lame-o's that dressed up. If I didn't make fun of you specifically this year, just know that deep down in my heart of hearts, I'm always making fun of you, regardless of the crap you have painted on your face, or the paper you have taped to your shirt.
  • The feed also shows a fan costume picture that was not shown in the toon proper: FIRST Robotics Team 190 dressed as various characters gathering around a 5-dor standee. The group won "Best Team Costume" at River Rage 13.
