The logo on Tangerine Dreams (the same logo as on the [[Tandy 400]])—a rainbow-colored star with a bite taken out of its side—is a play on the old Apple logo, a rainbow apple with a bite missing.

Main Page 23

Thoraxcorp — Mon, 16 Jan 2006 16:53:17 GMT

Thoraxcorp: /* Goofs */

[[Image:main_page_23.PNG|220px|thumb|"Oh, check me out, it's the front of my head!"]]

Behind the set of a main page. Nearly everything is flipped around, since we're seeing it from the back, and ink marks where all the buttons are.

'''Cast (In order of appearance):''' {{Film|Homestar Runner}}, {{Film|Coach Z}}, {{Film|Strong Bad}}, {{Film|The Cheat}}, [[Homestar Runner]], {{Film|Strong Sad}}

'''Place:''' [[The Field]]

'''Icon:''' Plank of wood

'''Page title:''' "Backstage Pass!"

'''Date:''' September 19, 2005

==Button Effects==
*'''Toons''' — Coach Z pops up with a [[Clapperboard|clapperboard]] and says, "Main Page number tworty-tree, take one, action!" Homestar delays saying "Toons" until after he's gone.
*'''Games''' — A piece of wood wiggles loose and falls off of the set, striking Homestar on the head. Homestar replies with "Oof!" It reappears where it was after a few seconds.
*'''Characters''' — On the first mouse-over, Strong Bad jumps up and says "Oh, check me out, it's the front of my head!" while facing away from the user. On the second mouse-over, Strong Bad jumps up and says "Oh, check me out, it's the back of my head!" while facing toward the user.
*'''Downloads''' — The Cheat falls in front of Homestar, facing him and the user, makes a few The Cheat noises and walks off.
*'''Store''' — Another Homestar walks in front of Homestar and says (in his modern voice) "'Sup, man?" Homestar replies (in the older voice that's still used for the main pages) "'Sup?" 
*'''E-mail''' — A piece of wood, presumably painted with Strong Sad's head on the opposite side, is pulled across the screen by two strings with the words "[[Wear a Bikini!]]" written on the back of it. From off screen Strong Sad holds up [[Strong Sad's Tape Player|his tape player]] into view and presses "Play," causing it to say (in Strong Sad's voice) "I'm the floating head of dooooom!"

==Fun Facts==
===Trivia===
* This is the second main page (after [[Main Page 12]]) where we see Homestar from behind.

===Remarks===
* Coach Z says "action" while still holding up the clapperboard; he's still in the shot when Homestar delivers his line.
* The support behind Homestar's head would be visible from the front, but doesn't show up on any of the other main pages.
* The reversed joke was only taken so far. As such, the Weeklies buttons are not truly flipped. It should go in this order, left to right: [[Random Toon]], [[Sketchbook]], [[Weekly Fanstuff]], then [[Quote of the Week]].
* Likewise, the numerical order of the home pages is not reversed, just right-justified.
**This is the only Main Page to refer to them as the compound word "homepages" instead of "home pages."
*This is another instance of [[Twin Characters|twin characters]].
*The copyright date for this main page is still 2005.
**Most likely, The Brothers Chaps have a template for all the main pages- except this one. So when they changed the template, 23 was not affected.

===Goofs===
* Although the part of the characters button where the "s" would be is partly sticking out, the characters buttons on other main pages don't stick out at all.
* The portions of the first three buttons that are sticking out of the cardboard are not clickable.
* The hompages file for this main page still has the 2005 copyright date.

===Glitches===
* If you hold down the tab button on this menu, several hidden items become highlighted. You cannot click on them with your mouse, but you can select them by pressing enter.
** To the left of the visible recent updates button is another recent updated button.
** There is yet another recent updates button where the recent updates button normally is.
** There is another [[First Time Here?]] button on the left side located where the First Time Here? button normally is ''relative to'' the recent updates button.
** There is yet another First Time Here? button off the right edge of where it normally is.
*If you scroll over "store" and then "downloads" right when the second Homestar gets to the middle, The Cheat falls behind Homestar even though perspective makes it look like Homestar is farther away.

'''STRONG BAD''': Pour hot soup in Homestar's eyes, eh, Steven? That sounds like a pretty good- ''{He stops typing.}'' wait... what'd your email say again?

''{Strong Bad presses a key, and the email appears again}''

''{Strong Bad presses a key, and starts the reply again.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Make the town different, eh, Steven? ''{He breaks into song.}'' Weeeeeeehhhhhhhlllllll.....

''{cut to The Poopsmith shoveling poop}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' The Poopsmith, he could talk—

'''THE POOPSMITH''': ''{singing}'' Hello!

''{The screen slides to reveal the right, where Marzipan is dressed in heavy metal garb, holding a guitar decorated with a skeleton pattern, in front of a wall of amplifiers marked 'Marzipan.'}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' And Marzipan would rock-

''{Marzipan wails on her guitar}''

''{Cut to the stick}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' And The Stick would be this big old tree that'd try to eat everyone except The Cheat and me—

'' {The Stick turns into a big tree with a scary mouth.}''

''{A polaroid picture of the tree with Strong Bad (still singing) and The Cheat hanging out with it. Strong Mad appears from behind the left border of the photo and says...}''

'''STRONG MAD''': AND ME!

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' We'll see. ''{Strong Mad looks shocked}'' And The King of Town would be underground in a box filled up with peas...

''{pan down to reveal a large crate label 'A MILLION PEAS' buried under ground. A cut-out from the crate is taken away to reveal The King Of Town inside surrounded with peas}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN''': I hate peas!

''{Strong Bad appears in the lower right with a miner's hard hat and says...}''

'''STRONG BAD''': I know!

''{cut to Bubs' Concession Stand surrounded by flamethrowers and a sign that says 'Please, Take SEVERAL'.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' Bubs would give away flame throwers that shoot chocolate hundred-dollar bills...

'''BUBS''': Imitation chocolate!

''{Pan right to reveal Strong Sad.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' And my stupid baby brother would have been born with horns and a tail...

''{Strong Sad sprouts horns and a tail.}''

'''STRONG SAD''': ''{sadly}'' I'm evil.

''{Pan right to reveal the athletic field with Coach Z standing there wearing an orange jacket.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' And Coach Z would wear this cool jacket.

''{Coach Z turns to reveal the back of his jacket which says 'Totally Style' and has a picture of a big thumbs up.}''

'''COACH Z''': Check it out, yo!

''{Pan right to reveal more of the athletic field with Homestar Runner standing there.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' And Homestar just couldn't hack it!

''{Homestar Runner rips the star off the front of his shirt and throws it to the ground, angrily.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': I quit!

''{Homestar starts stomping his star into the ground.}''

''{What looks like a collectors card floats into the left of the screen with a picture of Pom Pom making a basket.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' And Pom Pom wouldn't change at all, 'cept he'd look like an ABA basketball.

''{Total blackout, fade in close up of Strong Bad's mouth. Zoom out to reveal Strong Bad wearing an undone blue shirt, kind of like Michael Bolton.}''

'''STRONG BAD''':''{Close up on Strong Bad's foot tapping.}'' Two, three, four ''{singing}'' and this little weirdo...

''{A spotlight turns on to reveal Homsar}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' ...would be a modestly hot girl...

''{Homsar silhouettes and morphs into a silhouette of Modestly Hot Homsar.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' ...to help me through the hard times... You know, the kind that are only sorta hot so they don't mess around with other guys!

''{Modestly Hot Homsar un-silhouettes and is wearing a blue one-piece swimsuit with the word 'homsar' on it. She is wearing Homsar's yellow bowler hat and has brown hair and pink lipstick.}''

'''MODESTLY HOT HOMSAR''': ''{in Homsar's normal voice}'' DaAaAa, I'm forever your girl! ''{her hat falls off}''

''{The crowd cheers.}''

''{Cut to the Computer Room where Strong Bad is standing on his stool.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Thank you! Thank you! All right! This next one is the fourteenth song on my forty-second album. It's called—

''{Cut to Strong Sad standing to the right of the computer desk dressed in a light blue tunic wearing horns and a tail}''

'''STRONG SAD''': Hey, Strong Bad—

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{off screen}'' WHOA! Can it be true?

''{Cut to group shot with Strong Bad and Strong Sad standing to the right of the computer. Strong Bad is still standing on his stool.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Homestar Runner called it quits? The King of Town, pea-buried alive?! The Poopsmith speaketh?

'''STRONG SAD''': No... Calm down, spaz. I'm going to the Clash of the Titans Con, dressed up as Calibos, remember? I was just gonna ask if you still wanted that bust of Bubo?

'''STRONG BAD''': Oh, um. Right. Of course. ''{clears throat} {speaking quietly}'' Yeah, I still want the bust of Bubo.

'''STRONG SAD''': OK, bye, weirdo. What are you standing on that stool for anyway?

'''STRONG BAD''': For your information, I was ''{pause}'' checking on the lights, Strong Sad. We got that recessed lighting, y'know. Yup, everything looks great.

''{Cut back to the computer where Strong Bad continues his reply.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Yeah, things would be different alright. Though I'm a little disappointed in what I came up with for Homsar. Modestly hot my eye! I think my imagination's broke. ''{stops typing}'' Lemme try and think up the ''{types again}'' Best Thing Ever. Umm... Beef... stew... Yup it's busted alright. I'm gonna go... place. ''{gets up from stool}''

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*The words "eh, Steven?" can be clicked (only the first time SB types them) to show a [[Leomard Sportsinterviews|LEM]] drawing of "Eh. Steven." ([[Eh! Steve]] in formal wear).
*Clicking on "place" at the end brings up a [[Place]] postcard featuring [[Monkey D]] and the skyline of Seattle, Washington. It reads: "Greetings from PLACE." (Clicking it again closes it.)
*Click on the right side of "back" at the end to download the song.

== Fun Facts ==

===Secrets===

[[Image:marzipanmohawk.jpg|thumb|Marzipan's New Dew.]]
*If you import the .swf into flash and move her current hair over, a new hair style will be there.

===Trivia===
* The music for "Different Town" was performed by [[They Might Be Giants]] especially for HomestarRunner.com. However, the lyrics were written by [[The Brothers Chaps]].
*Although Strong Bad's imagination is by no means part of continuity, this is the first time that the Poopsmith speaks (if you ignore the hiss in [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]]).
*After you bring up the postcard from Place, you can still access the "download the song" Easter egg, which appears over the top of the postcard.
*If you look closely in [[Isle of Pom]] toon, you can see an ABA basketball Pom.

===Inside References===
*The postcard from [[Place|PLACE]] in the Easter egg is a reference to Strong Bad's postcards from destinations such as OVER THERE in the email [[vacation]].


===Real-World References===
*The "[[Wikipedia:American Basketball Association|ABA]] Basketball" is indeed red, white, and blue instead of the [[Wikipedia:National Basketball Association|NBA]] orange.
*"[http://www.lucasfrancisstudio.com/cyberdyne/portfolio/Bubo.html Bubo]" was the name of the clockwork owl in the film "[http://imdb.com/title/tt0082186/ Clash Of The Titans], later featured as an avatar on [[Strong Sad's Lament]]." Strong Sad was dressed as Calibos, the villain of that movie.
*Wolksvagen is a play on words of the German automobile manufacturer: [[Wikipedia:Volkswagen|Volkswagen]]. The funny pronunciation comes from the fact that in German, the name is pronounced "'''F'''olks'''v'''agen."
*The board behind Homestar says "[[Crazy Go Nuts University|CGNU]]" and "DeBry," which is a parody of [[Wikipedia:DeVry University|DeVry University]].
*The guitar Marzipan is playing is "[http://www.philbrodieband.com/muso_george_lynch03.jpg Mr. Scary]," the axe [[Wikipedia:George Lynch (musician)|George Lynch]] used during his years with the '80s metal band [[Wikipedia:Dokken|Dokken]].
*The "Marzipan" amps are a play on the ubiquitous [[Wikipedia:Marshall Amplification|Marshall Amps]], which feature similar styling and font.

===Fast Forward===
*Homestar's eyes will again be threatened with hot soup in [[New Boots]], this time by The Cheat.

== DVD Version ==
*The Eh! Steven Easter egg is viewable using the angle button on your DVD remote.
*The download link for Different Town has also been disabled for obvious reasons.
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary, as well as the ''original'' version of the Different Town song, as sung by John Linnell. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.
=== Commentary Transcript ===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])

'''MATT:''' Another commentary.

'''MIKE:''' This is a commentary- My name is Mike Chapman. This is my younger brother Matt, he's three years younger than me.

'''MATT:''' That's all true.

'''MIKE:''' So, this commentary track- we're going to allow John Linnell from They Might Be Giants- we're gonna put on his original track. They co-wrote the song for this e-mail

'''MATT:''' did all the music for it, I just sent an email with some of the words and a couple of notes and that- that's it.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, so that's what we're going to play for the, um—

'''MATT:''' ''{quickly}'' Here it comes!

''{The Different Town music track is played, with John Linnell singing Strong Bad's lines (no other character's lines are said.)}''

'''MATT:''' I think I used a Miss Georgia, or Miss California, or something picture, for a reference for the hot Homsar.

'''MIKE:''' Probably was Miss Georgia.

'''MATT:''' You think so?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. She's pretty hot

'''MATT:''' So, we liked Clash of the Titans a lot.

'''MIKE:''' True. It, uh, scared me when I was little. And I like the special effects.

'''MATT:''' And it delights you in your old age.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughing}'' It does.

'''MATT:''' Bubo was, of course, the R2-D2 of Clash of The Titans.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, the robot owl.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. But it was clockwork, Mike, there were no robotics back then. The gods had a mastery of clockworks, though.

'''MIKE:''' Gears.

'''MATT:''' Gears of...shimmies. Uh, Manhunter of New York, I believe, is in the diskbox there.

'''MIKE:''' ''Great'' game.

'''MATT:''' It's a great game. Speaking of terribly awkward graphics. ''{Mike laughs}'' That's something else that scared me when I was younger and delights me in my old age, is Manhunter of New York.

'''MIKE:''' Eyeballs. Flying eyeballs.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. Orbs.

'''MIKE:''' Orbs. Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Poor guy.

===Goofs===
*Matt incorrectly identifies the game in the [[Floppy Disk Container]] as "Manhunter of New York." It is actually "BAAL." The game "Manhunter of New York" appeared in the Floppy Disk container in [[Arcade Game]] and [[caper]].

===Fast Forward===

*Bubo the owl was later used as an Avatar for [[Strong Sad's Lament]].

==Transcript==

''{Spooky sounds play against a darkened wall. Homestar Runner's shadow appears from the left, and Homestar himself then appears suddenly.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Wah! You scared me! So, here's the deal: I'm lost inside this haunted mansion, and I need your help to find my costume and get outta here! So, what should we do first?

''{The screen displays: 'WHAT SHOULD WE DO?? 1. PET A GOAT 2. MAKE A STEW 3. "I'M SELLING THESE FINE LEATHER JACKETS..."' A "COSTUME LOCATOR" is in the lower left and a "HEALTH & BEAUTY" indicator, showing 100%, is in the lower right. Then, after a moment, the lights suddenly come on and the camera pans back, revealing the interior of Homestar's house, including pictures of Homestar's past costumes framed on the wall. Marzipan walks up with a wig and a pile of clothes. A sheet of paper can be seen in front of Homestar, with doodles all over it and several markers scattered around it.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' What up, Homestar? Here's your costume!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{taking the costume}'' Oh, thanks. You win!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{noticing the paper and markers}'' Homestar Michael Runner, what did you do—

''{A closeup of the paper is shown. It reads:}''

<div style="text-align:center; padding:8px; border: 1pt solid #000; width:300px">Halloween Potion 1. *****-Water 2. Powdered ********* 3. Essence of ********* Stir ingredients with a *********** Say this magic incantation: *****************************</div>

''{Drawings of bugs and [[Ducks|ducks]] obscure all of the important parts, asterisked. Also, Homestar has written "MEAN SEAN", "QUACK TIME", and "COOL DUCK" on various parts of the paper.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' —to my Halloween Potion recipe?

''{Homestar and Marzipan appear again.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, yeah. ''{turns away from Marzipan}'' Marzipaaan! Can I draw ducks and bugs all over the recipe for your Halloween Potion?

'''MARZIPAN:''' No way, Jorge. You're gonna figure out what those ingredients were and bring 'em back here before midnight. Now march your skinny white butt into those spooky woods, mister!

''{Music starts.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{humbly}'' Yes, Mom-zipan.

''{The screen displays "HALLOWEEN POTION-MA-JIG" and "A MAKE-YOUR-OWN-DECISION-VENTURE", followed by the usual credits (with the notable addition of "[[Jonathan Howe|Jonathan]] programs"), over the drawings of bugs and ducks. Then, cut to the spooky forest, where Homestar is now in costume.}''

===The Water===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right! These spooky woods gotta be chock full of spooky ingredients! Let's see, the first one is ''{pulls out the paper}'' "Something Water." Hmmmmmmmm...

'''COACH Z:''' ''{from a distance}'' Really?

''{cut to Coach Z and Pom Pom}''

'''COACH Z:''' Then how come they'll be all nice to ya and act like they like ya to your face?

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles}''

'''COACH Z:''' Guess I have a lot to learn about mailmen...

''{Homestar walks up}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, what are you guys doin' out here? Did you ruin somebody's magic potion too?

'''COACH Z:''' Uh... nope. Unless Coach Z's life is a magic potion.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cool, cool, depressing, cool. So, um...

''{A box shows up reading "CHOICE TIME!!!" and the three choices:}''

==== 1. Do either of you have any... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Do either of you have any cash on you? I'm trying to get a me a sandwich or somethin'. Uh, my car broke down and I'm out of gas.

'''COACH Z:''' Oh, sorry man. All I gots is this bottle of, uh, ghost water?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That's perfect! I was planning on blowin' that money on ghost water anyways.

''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items you get. The first blank is filled with "Ghost Water". A victory sound plays.}''

==== 2. I need something that would be... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I need something that would be good in a Halloween Potion.

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles and pulls a severed toe out of his pocket}''

'''COACH Z:''' Pom Pom can getcha a toe. With nail polish!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Um... do you have anything waterier? Or... more waterish? Or waterian?

'''COACH Z:''' Please, Homestar, stop! Just take this bottle of questionable water that I keep on my person at all times for questionable reasons!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I won't question that!

''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items you get. The first blank is filled with "Questionable Water". A victory sound plays.}''

==== 3. Taco-Man came by... ====
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Taco-Man came by, he gave me some water—he gave me some water. What are you guys gonna do for me?

'''COACH Z:''' Pom Pom, give the man some stank water. I will not be upstaged by Taco-Man two years in a row!

''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items you get. The first blank is filled with "Stank Water". A victory sound plays.}''

=== The Powder ===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, I gotta keep searchin'. ''{starts to walk offscreen to the right}'' Too bad I probably won't run into anybody else mysteriously hanging out in the woods.

''{Cut to The King of Town and The Poopsmith. Holes are dug all over the place. Homestar walks up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh! Whaddaya know! How ya diggin'?

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oh! We're certainly not trying to unearth the ham sandwich that I buried here when I was nine!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Good. 'Cause I found that thing like two months ago. It wasn't that good. Too much mayo.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Too much mayo?! I love too much mayo!

''{The choice dialogue comes up again.}''

==== 1. Hey! I've got it... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, I've got it! I'll give you a detailed account of the consumption of your ham sammie if you give me a powdered item for this Potion-ma-jig!

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Sweet deal! Take some of this powdered Thanksgiving! Now let's hear it!

''{The screen starts to fade out.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, so first I washed all the dirt off with some Windex. That made it all blue and soggy...

''{It fades back in. The King of Town has his head lowered in emotion. His Chicken Basket is empty.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...and that last bite nearly made me puke it right back on my plate!

''{Homestar walks off and takes the powder as he goes.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oh, I wish you had. I surely wish you had!

''{The scorecard returns. The second blank is filled with "Powdered Thanksgiving".}''

==== 2. I say, is that a powdered... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I say, is that a powdered wig you're wearing, your Kentucky Fried-ness? 'Cause I'm in the market for some powdery dealings!

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{pulls out a pouch}'' Well, I've got my secret blend of eleven herbs and spices. But, of course, you can't have that!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aw, that's too bad, I guess I'll just go on home and— ''{starts popping in and out of the holes, snatching the powder while he hops around}'' Pyong-pyong-pyong-pyong-pyong! ''{appears from one of the holes, holding the powder}'' So long, suckers!

''{Homestar drops back into the hole.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Ha! That blend was just a decoy! It only has ''ten'' herbs and spices!

''{The scorecard appears with "Powdered Herbs & Spices".}''

==== 3. Poopsmith, do I dare ask... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Poopsmith, do I dare ask what powdered delights you've unearthed?

''{The Poopsmith digs in the dirt and a pouch pops out, which Homestar catches.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ooh, ground ground. Thanks thanks, guys guys.

''{The scorecard appears with "Powdered Ground Ground"}''

===Homsar===

''{This scene only happens if you click on the upper half of The Poopsmith as Homestar walks away (an Easter egg). Homsar is floating on a balloon, as per his costume (Tingle from [[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda Series]].) Homestar walks up, and looks at him, annoyed.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, great, the secret guy!

'''HOMSAR:''' AaAaA—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Just gimme my choices!

''{Homsar throws confetti, and the bottom of the screen reads:}''

<blockquote>
HOISIN SAUCE! 
2TH: HORSE IT ON IN THERE! 
THAT'S A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! 
> What wouldst thou deau?</blockquote>

''{With [[The Hornblower]]'s head and some circus peanuts over it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What I'm supposed to do with that mess?! I'm outta here!

''{Homestar walks away.}''

'''HOMSAR:''' Location, location, location!

=== The Essence ===

''{Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat are standing around a cliff, with broken TVs littering the area. Strong Bad's face is obscured by the cabinet doors on his costume. Strong Mad grunts and tosses a broken TV. Homestar walks up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whoa. This is a cool new background!

''{The TV Strong Mad tossed falls in the background.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{opening his costume's doors}'' Yeah! We were just burying our problems here in the spooky woods when we found this creepy cliff! It's perfect for the chucking off of busted old TVs.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Essence of busted old TVs? 'Cuz I got a serious jones!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, I think these TVs lost their essence in the seventies. What are you doing here, anyways?

''{The choice box returns:}''

==== 1. I've always felt that... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I've always felt that essence of rose petals is my very most favorite essence.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, I agree, The Cheat. Essence of doo doo meringue has always been my favorite. In fact, there's a whole bunch of it down at the bottom of this cliff you can have.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{jumping off the cliff}'' Cannonball!

''{The scorecard appears with "Essence of Doo doo meringue"}''

==== 2. I'm trying to ruin Marzipan's... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'm trying to ruin Marzipan's Halloween Potion. Got any leads?

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's a worthy cause if ever there was one! How about this essence of putting Strong Mad's hand in warm water while he's asleep?

'''STRONG MAD:''' MY SECRET SHAME!

''{The Cheat tosses a bottle off the cliff. Homestar jumps after it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks a lot you guuuuuuuuuys!

''{The scorecard returns with "Essence of Putting Strong Mad's hand in warm water while he's asleep".}''

==== 3. I'm in the mood for a... ====
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'm in the mood for a Hovan roll!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, me too. Let's have a race to the food court. Here's the starting line. Ready, go!

''{The Cheat draws a line in dirt next to the cliff's edge.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{running over cliff}'' Eat my duuuuuuuust!

''{The scorecard returns with "Essence of Gullibility".}''

===The stirring utensil===

''{Cut back to Strong Bad's posse}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Meka-leka-hi-meka-The Cheat throw a TV on 'im...

''{The Cheat drops a TV over the cliff.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ... ho.

''{The doors on Strong Bad's costume close once more. Cut to Bubs, standing by a canister labeled "BUBS' MO'BILE CAN o' STIRRING UTENSILS". ("Bile" is in green.) Homestar bounces once on the ground and then lands on his feet next to Bubs. The TV crashes behind Homestar at the same spot where he had bounced off, narrowly missing him.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whoa, Bubs. Fancy runnin' into you in the middle of the spooky woods sellin' stirring utensils.

'''BUBS:''' It's a niche market!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' So, what kind of concoctions might one stir with your wares?

'''BUBS:''' Well, a little eye of newt, some toe of frog, baby, you got a witches' brew goin'!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, that's my line! So, how do I score one of those jobbies?

'''BUBS:''' Oh, they're free. But you gotta ''earn'' 'em!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Uh, that doesn't sound free at all.

'''BUBS:''' Well then, you just gotta ''earn'' 'em!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' How should I do that?

''{The choice box returns:}''

==== 1. Do a dance ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{dances}'' A little to the left, come on, come on, back to the right, shake it around. ''{he repeats it over Bubs's next line}''

'''BUBS:''' Oh, yeah! Stick and move, stick and move! You're pretty good, shorty. ''{pulls a red spoon from his canister}'' That's worth at least a ''Jurassic Park III'' collector's spoon.

''{The scorecard returns with "Stirring utensil: JP3 Collector Spoon".}''

==== 2. Sing a song ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, here goes. Two and three and four. ''{singing, and Bubs covers his ears}'' Backyard peaches! Treats come true! Karate Summer, what wouldja do? The world is the egg, and diapers come true...

'''BUBS:''' Oh! Heard enough of that one! You... you get a chewed-up pen.

''{The scorecard returns with "Stirring utensil: Chewed Up Pen".}''

==== 3. Reagan impression ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{leaning over, in a low voice}'' Well... well... Nancy and I... economics... well... rap music... jellybeans... well... we... probably had a... pet...

'''BUBS:''' That's the worst Ronald Reagan impression I've ever heard!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{standing upright}'' ''Ronald'' Reagan?! I was doing my Keanu Reagan!

'''BUBS:''' Just take this terlet brush and get outta here!

''{The scorecard returns with "Stirring utensil: Terlet Brush".}''

===The magic words===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{walking off}'' Thanks, Great American Bubs!

''{Cut to a closeup of Homestar}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Now to find Strong Sad. Anything that guy says will make ''great'' magic words!

''{Cut to Strong Sad, half-buried and asleep. Homestar walks up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Sad. Nice fire hydrant costume!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh! Mineral water! ''{wakes up and looks at Homestar}'' What?

''{The choice box returns:}''

==== 1. I just graduated... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I just graduated. What should my epitaph say?

'''STRONG SAD:''' Homestar, do you even have half a brain?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hot biscuits! Those are the best magic words I've ever heards!

''{The scorecard appears with "Magic Words: Do you even have half a brain".}''

==== 2. If you were at a party... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' If you were at a party, what would you rap?

'''STRONG SAD:''' Each day, we die a little more, yo! Betta ax somebod-ay!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ooh! Fresh beats! My favorite!

''{The scorecard appears with "Magic Words: Better Ax Somebod-ay".}''

==== 3. Taco-Man came by... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Taco-Man came by. We played a little foosball, played a little foosball. So, what are some of your favorite words?

'''STRONG SAD:''' In no particular order: Loquentia... Imbruglia... Precipitous... Saralee...cheesecake... Denouement...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Those are great!

''{The scorecard appears with "Magic Words: Loquentia, Imbruglia, Precitpitous, Saraleecheesecake, Denouement". ("Precipitous" is misspelled.)}''

=== The potion ===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks for the words, half-man! ''{walks off}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Go forward! Move ahead! Try to detect it! It's not too late!

''{Cut to Homestar's house, where Homestar and Marzipan are standing near a bubbling cauldron.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right, so here's what I came up with: a bottle of ''{whatever water you obtained}'' water, ''{he throws the bottle into the cauldron}'' some ''{whatever powder you obtained; it's thrown into the cauldron too; he omits "powdered" for all but "Thanksgiving"}'', and essence of ''{whatever essence you obtained; again, he throws it into the cauldron; if you got essence of gullibility, he adds "Whatever that is"}''. ''{Pulls out the stirring utensil}'' And give a little stir with this ''{whatever stirring utensil you obtained}''. And say these magic words. ''{He hands an index card to Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{whatever magic words you obtained—if you picked #3 she actually says "Saraleecheesecakia"}''

''{The cauldron makes a "poof" sound and smoke emerges, and Marzipan dips a cup into it.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Here, Homestar. ''{hands the cup to Homestar}'' Have some Melonade!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Don't mind if I do! ''{He drinks the contents of the cup. Depending on your choices, various things can happen:}''

''{See the fun facts section to see how the endings scenes are chosen. These are the different effects on Homestar:)''

====End 1: [[Tofu Homestar]]====

''{After drinking the potion, Homestar turns into the Tofu Version of himself as seen in [[The Luau]].}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Yay, Homestar! You're back to your old self again!

''{We see the tofu head slide off into the cauldron and a flame covers Tofu Homestar and back to his real old self}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{disappointed}'' Yay, Homestar. You're back to your old self again...

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{singing}'' That costume makes your butt look big.

====End 2: Cycloptic Homestar====

''{Homestar suddenly loses his wig and sprouts one enormous eye on his face.}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{yelps}'' Marzipan! There's only one of you!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Don't tell me you forgot how to use your eyes again.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Do you mean to tell me that I haven't been dating twins this whole time?

'''MARZIPAN:''' I don't think you have to worry about dating anyone from now on.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Hooray!

====End 3: French Homestar====

''{Homestar takes on the appearance of a suave foreigner.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Ooh, goody goody gumdrops!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{in a bad accent}'' I say, Marzipan, let us away to my romantic chateau in the Fantastic mountains!

'''MARZIPAN:''' I'll go pack my pashmina. ''{walks offscreen}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing, in his regular voice}'' Oh, gettin' lucky toniiiiiiight...

====End 4: Freaky Marzipan====

''{After drinking the potion, Homestar turns into a normally-dressed Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Hooray! I'm not the only girl!

''{As Freaky Marzipan speaks, her horrible teeth and wobbly mouth become visible.}''

'''FREAKY MARZIPAN:''' ''{in a low-pitched voice}'' I think we're gonna become fast friends!

''{Marzipan shrieks and runs off; Freaky Marzipan makes a silly face.}''

====End 5: The Goblin====

''{Homestar transforms into The Goblin.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Ooh, he's so cute! Do it, do it, do it!

''{The Goblin dances as his organ chord plays.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ...annd scene!

=== The finale ===

''{The screen fades to black. After a few seconds, one of Homestar's bug drawings appears in the center of the screen with "THE END". After a few more seconds, the screen fades back to Spooky Forest. All of the characters are standing around. "BACK" and "PLAY AGAIN (SKIP INTRO)" buttons are seen.}''

==Fun Facts==
{{checkstuffpage}}

===Explanations===
*[http://lysy2.archives.nd.edu/cgi-bin/words.exe?Loquentia Loquentia] is a Latin word whose root means to speak or to utter.
*[[Wikipedia:pashmina|Pashmina]] is the fleece of feral Himalayan goats that is used to make shawls that are referred to by the same name. It is similar to cashmere and was quite popular in the mid 1990's.
*[[Wikipedia:Denouement|Denouement]] is the resolution part of a story which comes after its climax.

===Trivia===
* The original potion read:
<div style="text-align:center; padding:8px; border: 1pt solid #000; width:300px">Halloween Potion 1. Ghost-Water 2. Powdered Pigs' Feet 3. Essence of Nightroot Stir ingredients with a wooden spoon Say this magic incantation: 
"Sip it down and swish it 'round"</div>

* This toon was released at about 1:30 a.m. on November 1, Atlanta time. All day the previous day, the button on the main page read, ''"workin' as fast as we can!"''. When the toon was finally released, the button read: ''"it's still halloween!"'' (when you moved your mouse over it, it switched to: ''"in certain timezones!"''). Later in the day, the button was changed to simply read: ''"halloween toon!"''
* The shirt Coach Z is wearing is from ''[[Wikipedia:The Cosby Show|The Cosby Show]]'''s first-season episode "[http://www.tv.com/the-cosby-show/a-shirt-story/episode/6802/summary.html A Shirt Story]," in which Denise tries to hand-make Theo a designer shirt and butchers it in the process. The fictitious brand of shirt was called a "Gordon Gartrelle," and the original cost Theo $95. The "Jammin' on the one" line is a reference to the episode "[http://www.tv.com/a-touch-of-wonder/episode/6836/summary.html|A Touch Of Wonder]," in which guest star [[Wikipedia:Stevie Wonder|Stevie Wonder]] sampled the voices of the Huxtable family and made them into a song.
* There are five endings to this toon. Which ending is seen is determined by adding together all the numbers of the choices made, dividing by five, taking the remainder (numbered zero to four), and adding one. Thus, if you choose 2, 1, 3, 3, and 2, you would get 2 + 1 + 3 + 3 + 2 = 11 / 5 = 2, remainder 1. Add 1 to that, and you get ending 2. (See the talk page for the source code.)
*If the remainder is:
:*0, then you see ending 1: Tofu Homestar. There are 53 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 5, 10, or 15 this ending is displayed.
:*1, then you see ending 2: Cyclops Homestar. There are 50 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 6 or 11 this ending is displayed.
:*2, then you see ending 3: French Homestar. There are 45 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 7 or 12 this ending is displayed.
:*3, then you see ending 4: Freaky Marzipan. There are 45 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 8 or 13 this ending is displayed.
:*4, then you see ending 5: The Goblin. There are 50 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 9 or 14 this ending is displayed.
*The total number of possible sequences of potion ingredients is 35, or 243.

===Remarks===
* This is the first time Homestar is mentioned as having a middle name ("Michael") in a toon. (In the DVD commentary for [[time capsule]], however, Marzipan offhandedly remarked that Hal was his middle name.)
* All of the [[Spooky_Tree|Spooky Trees]] in the background are the same shape, just in different sizes and orientations. Also, the first two backgrounds for Pom Pom, Coach Z, the Poopsmith, and the King of Town are identical.
* If Homestar does a dance for Bubs, Bubs will refer to Homestar as "Shorty", even though (unless you count Bubs' hat) Homestar is taller than Bubs is.
* Besides stealing Homestar's [[Witches' Brew]] "line," as Homestar points out, Bubs also appropriates the "terlet" pronunciation of "toilet" that Coach Z has used in [[Halloween Fairstival]] and [[A Folky Tale]]. This spelling shows up on the scorecard as well, but Homestar still pronounces it as "toilet" when he hands it over to Marzipan. Homestar's speech impediment causes a mispronunciation of the mispronunciation, making it correct again.
* The Flash file appears to have been updated 12 hours after the toon was originally released. The update expanded the Tofu Homestar scene, and added an extra "THE END" scene and an Easter Egg (The Cheat).
* Homestar's costume includes a pair of shoes. When Marzipan gives him his costume, however, the shoes do not appear to be included.

===Goofs===
*[[Wikipedia:Gossamer_(Looney_Tunes)|Gossamer]] is actually a straight red, not a bright orange.
*When Strong Bad's cabinet doors are open, they appear to be symmetrical, so they shouldn't be able to fit together when closed.

===Glitches===
*You can see a "hiccup" in the animation of the pot's bubbling when the cartoon switches to one of the variables in the combination you made.
*Unlike the other characters, Homsar shows scroll-over information during the finale Easter eggs even while the rest of the characters comment on their costumes. This is because he is a sprite that overlays the scene.
*When you click on The Cheat at the end, Strong Bad's head changes size and his mouth closes a bit, and everybody moves slightly.
*When clicking on most of the characters that activate Easter Eggs at the end, Marzipan's mouth changes expression unexpectedly.
*When Marzipan's angry expression is used, blinking causes her outline to be intruded.
*If you save the flash file and open it in Flash Player 6, the buttons to choose your own adventure do not work.

===Inside References===
* There are pictures of Homestar in all his previous [[Homestar Runner#Halloween Costumes|Halloween costumes]] on the back wall of his [[Homestar's House|house]].

===Real-World References===
*[[wikipedia:Ronald Reagan|Ronald Reagan]] was the 40th president of the United States. "Nancy" refers to his widow, [[wikipedia:Nancy Reagan|Nancy Reagan]]. [[Wikipedia:Jelly beans|Jelly beans]] were famously one of Reagan's favorite foods. Reagan was also known for usually starting his statements with the word "well." He was famous for his economic policies, called "[[Wikipedia:Reaganomics|Reaganomics]]." He also did have [[Wikipedia:List_of_presidential_pets|pets]], among them a [[Wikipedia:Cavalier_king_charles_spaniel|Cavalier King Charles Spaniel]] named [[Wikipedia:Cavalier_king_charles_spaniel#Famous_Cavalier_King_Charles_Spaniels|Rex]].
*The phrase "I'm selling these fine leather jackets" is a reference to multiple PC games created by ''[[Wikipedia:LucasArts|LucasArts]]'' which featured the line as a running gag. They included ''[[Wikipedia:Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade|Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade]]'', the ''[[Wikipedia:Monkey Island|Monkey Island]]'' series, ''[[Wikipedia:Sam and Max|Sam and Max]]'' and ''[[Wikipedia:Full Throttle|Full Throttle]]''.
*[[Wikipedia:Hoisin Sauce|Hoisin sauce]], a fermented soy bean paste, is used as a condiment and also as a glaze for roasted meats, most commonly with [[Wikipedia:Peking Duck|Peking Duck]]. It is often referred to as "Chinese barbecue sauce."
*"Taco-Man" is the signature character of the website [http://www.ebolaworld.com Ebolaworld], which has used Homestar in cameos on more than one occasion. Perhaps the Brothers Chaps have decided to repay the favor. (As a side note, the Halloween special that Ebolaworld had planned for the same year was also a choose-your-own adventure cartoon.)
*"THAT'S A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! A LOT!" is a reference to the bank teller in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, who said it if you deposited more than fifty rupees all at once. This was the first game that Tingle appeared in, so it's quite appropriate.
*Homsar throwing the confetti is a reference to his costume ([[Wikipedia:Tingle|Tingle]]), who also throws confetti when he says the magic words ("Tingle, Tingle, Kooloo-limpah!").
*Strong Bad saying "Meka Leka Hi, Meka ... Ho" is from a character called Jambi The Genie (who he is dressed as) from the CBS Saturday morning show ''[[Wikipedia:Pee-wee's Playhouse|Pee-Wee's Playhouse]]''. Actually, the whole quote is supposed to be "Meka Leka Hi, Meka Hiney Ho!"
*[[Wikipedia:Lando Calrissian|Lando Calrissian]] is a character from the ''[[Wikipedia:Star Wars|Star Wars]]'' films, played by [[Wikipedia:Billy Dee Williams|Billy Dee Williams]]. It is a reasonably popular misconception of some people (including apparently Homestar) that Lando and Apollo Creed were played by the same actor, though Apollo Creed is played by Carl Weathers.
*Homsar's line ("location, location, location") refers to the three most important things in [[Wikipedia:real estate|real estate]]. His costume character, Tingle, serves to help Link navigate by selling him maps in ''The Legend of Zelda'' series.
*The Cutters (on Homestar's T-shirt) is the name of the town group that was featured in the 1979 movie ''[[Wikipedia:Breaking Away|Breaking Away]]'', a movie about a group of bicyclists at [[Wikipedia:Indiana University Bloomington|Indiana University]] that race in the annual "[[Wikipedia:Little 500|Little 500]]" every spring. Homestar's character, Moocher, was a member of the group.
*Walter Sobchak is a character from ''[[Wikipedia:The Big Lebowski|The Big Lebowski]]'', played by [[Wikipedia:John Goodman|John Goodman]]. The severed toe with nail polish is a plot device in this movie; Sobchack even says the line, "I can get you a toe, with nail polish," as does Coach Z on Pom Pom's behalf. "You're entering a world of pain" and "DONNY, YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT!" (said on behalf of Pom Pom by Homestar and Strong Mad respectively) were also repeated sayings of Sobchak's in the movie. Donny (in Strong Mad's quote) refers to Theodore Donald 'Donny' Kerabatsos, played by [[Wikipedia:Steve Buscemi|Steve Buscemi]].
*Bubs' quote "Baby, you've got a [[Witches' Brew|witches' brew]] goin'" is a reference to the television show ''[[Wikipedia:Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'', where [[Wikipedia:Carl Weathers|Carl Weathers]], the actor who played [[Wikipedia:Apollo Creed|Apollo Creed]], portrays himself as extremely cheap, and sometimes comments that if certain leftover foods are combined, "Baby, you've got a stew goin'."
*[[wikipedia:Oliver Cromwell|Oliver Cromwell]] was a 17th century English military commander who became Lord Protector after leading the rebellion that resulted in the execution of Charles I. Homestar probably ''meant'' to say [[Wikipedia:Oliver North|Oliver North]], a prominent figure in the [[Wikipedia:Iran Contra Affair|Iran Contra Affair]].
*Rose petal essence was an ingredient for the spell to turn into an eagle or fly in ''[[Wikipedia:King's Quest III|King's Quest III]]''. Especially given this allusion, the whole premise of the cartoon is likely based on the formulaic combination of ingredients, stirring, and magic words required to perform the [http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/the_fairway/game_pages/kings_quest_3.html spells] in King's Quest III.
*[[Wikipedia:Natalie Imbruglia|Natalie Imbruglia]] is an Australian-born singer and actress. However, Strong Sad and Marzipan both mispronounce her last name (the "g" is silent).
*"[[Wikipedia:Sara Lee|Sara Lee]]" is an American consumer-goods company and is also the brand name of a number of frozen and packaged foods, including cheesecake.

*''[[wikipedia:Jurassic Park III|Jurassic Park III]]'' is a movie in the ''[[wikipedia:Jurassic Park|Jurassic Park]]'' series.
*The secret blend of eleven herbs and spices is a reference to [[wikipedia:KFC|KFC's]] claim that [[Wikipedia:Colonel Sanders|Colonel Sanders']] recipe had eleven secret herbs and spices, although it curiously does not claim that this is the recipe in current use.
* Homestar's shoes are [[Wikipedia:Converse All-Stars|Converse All-Stars]].
* Bubs' comment about "Stick and move! Stick and move!" is a reference to the advice Duke gave Apollo Creed in [[IMDb:0075148|the original Rocky movie]]. [http://www.filmsite.org/rock5.html]

*The surprisingly high jump the Cheat makes is the effect of getting hit by a shell, invincible character, etc., in ''Mario Kart 64'', where the kart landed with a similar POOMP. Also, the respective noises The Cheat makes sound very close to what Toad says when he wins a race ("I'm the best!") as well as Toad's cries when he has been hit.
*Bubs' recommendation of "eye of newt" and "toe of frog" is a quotation from [http://www.bartleby.com/70/4141.html Act IV, Scene 1, line 16] of Shakespeare's ''[[Wikipedia:Macbeth|Macbeth]]'', one of the most famous and influential depictions of witches in Western culture.

'''Date:''' November 1, 2005

'''Running Time:''' 6:00 (Site Approximation)

==Transcript==

''{Spooky sounds play against a darkened wall. Homestar Runner's shadow appears from the left, and Homestar himself then appears suddenly.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Wah! You scared me! So, here's the deal: I'm lost inside this haunted mansion, and I need your help to find my costume and get outta here! So, what should we do first?

''{The screen displays: 'WHAT SHOULD WE DO?? 1. PET A GOAT 2. MAKE A STEW 3. "I'M SELLING THESE FINE LEATHER JACKETS..."' A "COSTUME LOCATOR" is in the lower left and a "HEALTH & BEAUTY" indicator, showing 100%, is in the lower right. Then, after a moment, the lights suddenly come on and the camera pans back, revealing the interior of Homestar's house, including pictures of Homestar's past costumes framed on the wall. Marzipan walks up with a wig and a pile of clothes. A sheet of paper can be seen in front of Homestar, with doodles all over it and several markers scattered around it.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' What up, Homestar? Here's your costume!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{taking the costume}'' Oh, thanks. You win!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{noticing the paper and markers}'' Homestar Michael Runner, what did you do—

''{A closeup of the paper is shown. It reads:}''

<div style="text-align:center; padding:8px; border: 1pt solid #000; width:300px">Halloween Potion 1. *****-Water 2. Powdered ********* 3. Essence of ********* Stir ingredients with a *********** Say this magic incantation: *****************************</div>

''{Drawings of bugs and [[Ducks|ducks]] obscure all of the important parts, asterisked. Also, Homestar has written "MEAN SEAN", "QUACK TIME", and "COOL DUCK" on various parts of the paper.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' —to my Halloween Potion recipe?

''{Homestar and Marzipan appear again.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, yeah. ''{turns away from Marzipan}'' Marzipaaan! Can I draw ducks and bugs all over the recipe for your Halloween Potion?

'''MARZIPAN:''' No way, Jorge. You're gonna figure out what those ingredients were and bring 'em back here before midnight. Now march your skinny white butt into those spooky woods, mister!

''{Music starts.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{humbly}'' Yes, Mom-zipan.

''{The screen displays "HALLOWEEN POTION-MA-JIG" and "A MAKE-YOUR-OWN-DECISION-VENTURE", followed by the usual credits (with the notable addition of "[[Jonathan Howe|Jonathan]] programs"), over the drawings of bugs and ducks. Then, cut to the spooky forest, where Homestar is now in costume.}''

===The Water===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right! These spooky woods gotta be chock full of spooky ingredients! Let's see, the first one is ''{pulls out the paper}'' "Something Water." Hmmmmmmmm...

'''COACH Z:''' ''{from a distance}'' Really?

''{cut to Coach Z and Pom Pom}''

'''COACH Z:''' Then how come they'll be all nice to ya and act like they like ya to your face?

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles}''

'''COACH Z:''' Guess I have a lot to learn about mailmen...

''{Homestar walks up}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, what are you guys doin' out here? Did you ruin somebody's magic potion too?

'''COACH Z:''' Uh... nope. Unless Coach Z's life is a magic potion.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cool, cool, depressing, cool. So, um...

''{A box shows up reading "CHOICE TIME!!!" and the three choices:}''

==== 1. Do either of you have any... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Do either of you have any cash on you? I'm trying to get a me a sandwich or somethin'. Uh, my car broke down and I'm out of gas.

'''COACH Z:''' Oh, sorry man. All I gots is this bottle of, uh, ghost water?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That's perfect! I was planning on blowin' that money on ghost water anyways.

''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items you get. The first blank is filled with "Ghost Water". A victory sound plays.}''

==== 2. I need something that would be... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I need something that would be good in a Halloween Potion.

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles and pulls a severed toe out of his pocket}''

'''COACH Z:''' Pom Pom can getcha a toe. With nail polish!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Um... do you have anything waterier? Or... more waterish? Or waterian?

'''COACH Z:''' Please, Homestar, stop! Just take this bottle of questionable water that I keep on my person at all times for questionable reasons!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I won't question that!

''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items you get. The first blank is filled with "Questionable Water". A victory sound plays.}''

==== 3. Taco-Man came by... ====
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Taco-Man came by, he gave me some water—he gave me some water. What are you guys gonna do for me?

'''COACH Z:''' Pom Pom, give the man some stank water. I will not be upstaged by Taco-Man two years in a row!

''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items you get. The first blank is filled with "Stank Water". A victory sound plays.}''

=== The Powder ===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, I gotta keep searchin'. ''{starts to walk offscreen to the right}'' Too bad I probably won't run into anybody else mysteriously hanging out in the woods.

''{Cut to The King of Town and The Poopsmith. Holes are dug all over the place. Homestar walks up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh! Whaddaya know! How ya diggin'?

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oh! We're certainly not trying to unearth the ham sandwich that I buried here when I was nine!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Good. 'Cause I found that thing like two months ago. It wasn't that good. Too much mayo.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Too much mayo?! I love too much mayo!

''{The choice dialogue comes up again.}''

==== 1. Hey! I've got it... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, I've got it! I'll give you a detailed account of the consumption of your ham sammie if you give me a powdered item for this Potion-ma-jig!

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Sweet deal! Take some of this powdered Thanksgiving! Now let's hear it!

''{The screen starts to fade out.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, so first I washed all the dirt off with some Windex. That made it all blue and soggy...

''{It fades back in. The King of Town has his head lowered in emotion. His Chicken Basket is empty.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...and that last bite nearly made me puke it right back on my plate!

''{Homestar walks off and takes the powder as he goes.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oh, I wish you had. I surely wish you had!

''{The scorecard returns. The second blank is filled with "Powdered Thanksgiving".}''

==== 2. I say, is that a powdered... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I say, is that a powdered wig you're wearing, your Kentucky Fried-ness? 'Cause I'm in the market for some powdery dealings!

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{pulls out a pouch}'' Well, I've got my secret blend of eleven herbs and spices. But, of course, you can't have that!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aw, that's too bad, I guess I'll just go on home and— ''{starts popping in and out of the holes, snatching the powder while he hops around}'' Pyong-pyong-pyong-pyong-pyong! ''{appears from one of the holes, holding the powder}'' So long, suckers!

''{Homestar drops back into the hole.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Ha! That blend was just a decoy! It only has ''ten'' herbs and spices!

''{The scorecard appears with "Powdered Herbs & Spices".}''

==== 3. Poopsmith, do I dare ask... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Poopsmith, do I dare ask what powdered delights you've unearthed?

''{The Poopsmith digs in the dirt and a pouch pops out, which Homestar catches.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ooh, ground ground. Thanks thanks, guys guys.

''{The scorecard appears with "Powdered Ground Ground"}''

===Homsar===

''{This scene only happens if you click on the upper half of The Poopsmith as Homestar walks away (an Easter egg). Homsar is floating on a balloon, as per his costume (Tingle from [[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda Series]].) Homestar walks up, and looks at him, annoyed.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, great, the secret guy!

'''HOMSAR:''' AaAaA—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Just gimme my choices!

''{Homsar throws confetti, and the bottom of the screen reads:}''

<blockquote>
HOISIN SAUCE! 
2TH: HORSE IT ON IN THERE! 
THAT'S A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! 
> What wouldst thou deau?</blockquote>

''{With [[The Hornblower]]'s head and some circus peanuts over it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What I'm supposed to do with that mess?! I'm outta here!

''{Homestar walks away.}''

'''HOMSAR:''' Location, location, location!

=== The Essence ===

''{Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat are standing around a cliff, with broken TVs littering the area. Strong Bad's face is obscured by the cabinet doors on his costume. Strong Mad grunts and tosses a broken TV. Homestar walks up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whoa. This is a cool new background!

''{The TV Strong Mad tossed falls in the background.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{opening his costume's doors}'' Yeah! We were just burying our problems here in the spooky woods when we found this creepy cliff! It's perfect for the chucking off of busted old TVs.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Essence of busted old TVs? 'Cuz I got a serious jones!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, I think these TVs lost their essence in the seventies. What are you doing here, anyways?

''{The choice box returns:}''

==== 1. I've always felt that... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I've always felt that essence of rose petals is my very most favorite essence.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, I agree, The Cheat. Essence of doo doo meringue has always been my favorite. In fact, there's a whole bunch of it down at the bottom of this cliff you can have.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{jumping off the cliff}'' Cannonball!

''{The scorecard appears with "Essence of Doo doo meringue"}''

==== 2. I'm trying to ruin Marzipan's... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'm trying to ruin Marzipan's Halloween Potion. Got any leads?

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's a worthy cause if ever there was one! How about this essence of putting Strong Mad's hand in warm water while he's asleep?

'''STRONG MAD:''' MY SECRET SHAME!

''{The Cheat tosses a bottle off the cliff. Homestar jumps after it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks a lot you guuuuuuuuuys!

''{The scorecard returns with "Essence of Putting Strong Mad's hand in warm water while he's asleep".}''

==== 3. I'm in the mood for a... ====
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'm in the mood for a Hovan roll!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, me too. Let's have a race to the food court. Here's the starting line. Ready, go!

''{The Cheat draws a line in dirt next to the cliff's edge.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{running over cliff}'' Eat my duuuuuuuust!

''{The scorecard returns with "Essence of Gullibility".}''

===The stirring utensil===

''{Cut back to Strong Bad's posse}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Meka-leka-hi-meka-The Cheat throw a TV on 'im...

''{The Cheat drops a TV over the cliff.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ... ho.

''{The doors on Strong Bad's costume close once more. Cut to Bubs, standing by a canister labeled "BUBS' MO'BILE CAN o' STIRRING UTENSILS". ("Bile" is in green.) Homestar bounces once on the ground and then lands on his feet next to Bubs. The TV crashes behind Homestar at the same spot where he had bounced off, narrowly missing him.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whoa, Bubs. Fancy runnin' into you in the middle of the spooky woods sellin' stirring utensils.

'''BUBS:''' It's a niche market!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' So, what kind of concoctions might one stir with your wares?

'''BUBS:''' Well, a little eye of newt, some toe of frog, baby, you got a witches' brew goin'!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, that's my line! So, how do I score one of those jobbies?

'''BUBS:''' Oh, they're free. But you gotta ''earn'' 'em!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Uh, that doesn't sound free at all.

'''BUBS:''' Well then, you just gotta ''earn'' 'em!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' How should I do that?

''{The choice box returns:}''

==== 1. Do a dance ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{dances}'' A little to the left, come on, come on, back to the right, shake it around. ''{he repeats it over Bubs's next line}''

'''BUBS:''' Oh, yeah! Stick and move, stick and move! You're pretty good, shorty. ''{pulls a red spoon from his canister}'' That's worth at least a ''Jurassic Park III'' collector's spoon.

''{The scorecard returns with "Stirring utensil: JP3 Collector Spoon".}''

==== 2. Sing a song ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, here goes. Two and three and four. ''{singing, and Bubs covers his ears}'' Backyard peaches! Treats come true! Karate Summer, what wouldja do? The world is the egg, and diapers come true...

'''BUBS:''' Oh! Heard enough of that one! You... you get a chewed-up pen.

''{The scorecard returns with "Stirring utensil: Chewed Up Pen".}''

==== 3. Reagan impression ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{leaning over, in a low voice}'' Well... well... Nancy and I... economics... well... rap music... jellybeans... well... we... probably had a... pet...

'''BUBS:''' That's the worst Ronald Reagan impression I've ever heard!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{standing upright}'' ''Ronald'' Reagan?! I was doing my Keanu Reagan!

'''BUBS:''' Just take this terlet brush and get outta here!

''{The scorecard returns with "Stirring utensil: Terlet Brush".}''

===The magic words===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{walking off}'' Thanks, Great American Bubs!

''{Cut to a closeup of Homestar}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Now to find Strong Sad. Anything that guy says will make ''great'' magic words!

''{Cut to Strong Sad, half-buried and asleep. Homestar walks up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Sad. Nice fire hydrant costume!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh! Mineral water! ''{wakes up and looks at Homestar}'' What?

''{The choice box returns:}''

==== 1. I just graduated... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I just graduated. What should my epitaph say?

'''STRONG SAD:''' Homestar, do you even have half a brain?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hot biscuits! Those are the best magic words I've ever heards!

''{The scorecard appears with "Magic Words: Do you even have half a brain".}''

==== 2. If you were at a party... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' If you were at a party, what would you rap?

'''STRONG SAD:''' Each day, we die a little more, yo! Betta ax somebod-ay!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ooh! Fresh beats! My favorite!

''{The scorecard appears with "Magic Words: Better Ax Somebod-ay".}''

==== 3. Taco-Man came by... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Taco-Man came by. We played a little foosball, played a little foosball. So, what are some of your favorite words?

'''STRONG SAD:''' In no particular order: Loquentia... Imbruglia... Precipitous... Saralee...cheesecake... Denouement...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Those are great!

''{The scorecard appears with "Magic Words: Loquentia, Imbruglia, Precitpitous, Saraleecheesecake, Denouement". ("Precipitous" is misspelled.)}''

=== The potion ===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks for the words, half-man! ''{walks off}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Go forward! Move ahead! Try to detect it! It's not too late!

''{Cut to Homestar's house, where Homestar and Marzipan are standing near a bubbling cauldron.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right, so here's what I came up with: a bottle of ''{whatever water you obtained}'' water, ''{he throws the bottle into the cauldron}'' some ''{whatever powder you obtained; it's thrown into the cauldron too; he omits "powdered" for all but "Thanksgiving"}'', and essence of ''{whatever essence you obtained; again, he throws it into the cauldron; if you got essence of gullibility, he adds "Whatever that is"}''. ''{Pulls out the stirring utensil}'' And give a little stir with this ''{whatever stirring utensil you obtained}''. And say these magic words. ''{He hands an index card to Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{whatever magic words you obtained—if you picked #3 she actually says "Saraleecheesecakia"}''

''{The cauldron makes a "poof" sound and smoke emerges, and Marzipan dips a cup into it.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Here, Homestar. ''{hands the cup to Homestar}'' Have some Melonade!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Don't mind if I do! ''{He drinks the contents of the cup. Depending on your choices, various things can happen:}''

''{See the fun facts section to see how the endings scenes are chosen. These are the different effects on Homestar:)''

====End 1: [[Tofu Homestar]]====

''{After drinking the potion, Homestar turns into the Tofu Version of himself as seen in [[The Luau]].}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Yay, Homestar! You're back to your old self again!

''{We see the tofu head slide off into the cauldron and a flame covers Tofu Homestar and back to his real old self}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{disappointed}'' Yay, Homestar. You're back to your old self again...

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{singing}'' That costume makes your butt look big.

====End 2: Cycloptic Homestar====

''{Homestar suddenly loses his wig and sprouts one enormous eye on his face.}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{yelps}'' Marzipan! There's only one of you!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Don't tell me you forgot how to use your eyes again.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Do you mean to tell me that I haven't been dating twins this whole time?

'''MARZIPAN:''' I don't think you have to worry about dating anyone from now on.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Hooray!

====End 3: French Homestar====

''{Homestar takes on the appearance of a suave foreigner.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Ooh, goody goody gumdrops!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{in a bad accent}'' I say, Marzipan, let us away to my romantic chateau in the Fantastic mountains!

'''MARZIPAN:''' I'll go pack my pashmina. ''{walks offscreen}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing, in his regular voice}'' Oh, gettin' lucky toniiiiiiight...

====End 4: Freaky Marzipan====

''{After drinking the potion, Homestar turns into a normally-dressed Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Hooray! I'm not the only girl!

''{As Freaky Marzipan speaks, her horrible teeth and wobbly mouth become visible.}''

'''FREAKY MARZIPAN:''' ''{in a low-pitched voice}'' I think we're gonna become fast friends!

''{Marzipan shrieks and runs off; Freaky Marzipan makes a silly face.}''

====End 5: The Goblin====

''{Homestar transforms into The Goblin.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Ooh, he's so cute! Do it, do it, do it!

''{The Goblin dances as his organ chord plays.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ...annd scene!

=== The finale ===

''{The screen fades to black. After a few seconds, one of Homestar's bug drawings appears in the center of the screen with "THE END". After a few more seconds, the screen fades back to Spooky Forest. All of the characters are standing around. "BACK" and "PLAY AGAIN (SKIP INTRO)" buttons are seen.}''

==Fun Facts==
{{checkstuffpage}}

===Explanations===
*[http://lysy2.archives.nd.edu/cgi-bin/words.exe?Loquentia Loquentia] is a Latin word whose root means to speak or to utter.
*[[Wikipedia:pashmina|Pashmina]] is the fleece of feral Himalayan goats that is used to make shawls that are referred to by the same name. It is similar to cashmere and was quite popular in the mid 1990's.
*[[Wikipedia:Denouement|Denouement]] is the resolution part of a story which comes after its climax.

===Trivia===
* The original potion read:
<div style="text-align:center; padding:8px; border: 1pt solid #000; width:300px">Halloween Potion 1. Ghost-Water 2. Powdered Pigs' Feet 3. Essence of Nightroot Stir ingredients with a wooden spoon Say this magic incantation: 
"Sip it down and swish it 'round"</div>

* This toon was released at about 1:30 a.m. on November 1, Atlanta time. All day the previous day, the button on the main page read, ''"workin' as fast as we can!"''. When the toon was finally released, the button read: ''"it's still halloween!"'' (when you moved your mouse over it, it switched to: ''"in certain timezones!"''). Later in the day, the button was changed to simply read: ''"halloween toon!"''
* The shirt Coach Z is wearing is from ''[[Wikipedia:The Cosby Show|The Cosby Show]]'''s first-season episode "[http://www.tv.com/the-cosby-show/a-shirt-story/episode/6802/summary.html A Shirt Story]," in which Denise tries to hand-make Theo a designer shirt and butchers it in the process. The fictitious brand of shirt was called a "Gordon Gartrelle," and the original cost Theo $95. The "Jammin' on the one" line is a reference to the episode "[http://www.tv.com/a-touch-of-wonder/episode/6836/summary.html|A Touch Of Wonder]," in which guest star [[Wikipedia:Stevie Wonder|Stevie Wonder]] sampled the voices of the Huxtable family and made them into a song.
* There are five endings to this toon. Which ending is seen is determined by adding together all the numbers of the choices made, dividing by five, taking the remainder (numbered zero to four), and adding one. Thus, if you choose 2, 1, 3, 3, and 2, you would get 2 + 1 + 3 + 3 + 2 = 11 / 5 = 2, remainder 1. Add 1 to that, and you get ending 2. (See the talk page for the source code.)
*If the remainder is:
:*0, then you see ending 1: Tofu Homestar. There are 53 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 5, 10, or 15 this ending is displayed.
:*1, then you see ending 2: Cyclops Homestar. There are 50 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 6 or 11 this ending is displayed.
:*2, then you see ending 3: French Homestar. There are 45 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 7 or 12 this ending is displayed.
:*3, then you see ending 4: Freaky Marzipan. There are 45 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 8 or 13 this ending is displayed.
:*4, then you see ending 5: The Goblin. There are 50 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 9 or 14 this ending is displayed.
*The total number of possible sequences of potion ingredients is 35, or 243.

===Remarks===
* This is the first time Homestar is mentioned as having a middle name ("Michael") in a toon. (In the DVD commentary for [[time capsule]], however, Marzipan offhandedly remarked that Hal was his middle name.)
* All of the [[Spooky_Tree|Spooky Trees]] in the background are the same shape, just in different sizes and orientations. Also, the first two backgrounds for Pom Pom, Coach Z, the Poopsmith, and the King of Town are identical.
* If Homestar does a dance for Bubs, Bubs will refer to Homestar as "Shorty", even though (unless you count Bubs' hat) Homestar is taller than Bubs is.
* Besides stealing Homestar's [[Witches' Brew]] "line," as Homestar points out, Bubs also appropriates the "terlet" pronunciation of "toilet" that Coach Z has used in [[Halloween Fairstival]] and [[A Folky Tale]]. This spelling shows up on the scorecard as well, but Homestar still pronounces it as "toilet" when he hands it over to Marzipan. Homestar's speech impediment causes a mispronunciation of the mispronunciation, making it correct again.
* The Flash file appears to have been updated 12 hours after the toon was originally released. The update expanded the Tofu Homestar scene, and added an extra "THE END" scene and an Easter Egg (The Cheat).
* Homestar's costume includes a pair of shoes. When Marzipan gives him his costume, however, the shoes do not appear to be included.

===Goofs===
*[[Wikipedia:Gossamer_(Looney_Tunes)|Gossamer]] is actually a straight red, not a bright orange.
*When Strong Bad's cabinet doors are open, they appear to be symmetrical, so they shouldn't be able to fit together when closed.

===Glitches===
*You can see a "hiccup" in the animation of the pot's bubbling when the cartoon switches to one of the variables in the combination you made.
*Unlike the other characters, Homsar shows scroll-over information during the finale Easter eggs even while the rest of the characters comment on their costumes. This is because he is a sprite that overlays the scene.
*When you click on The Cheat at the end, Strong Bad's head changes size and his mouth closes a bit, and everybody moves slightly.
*When clicking on most of the characters that activate Easter Eggs at the end, Marzipan's mouth changes expression unexpectedly.
*When Marzipan's angry expression is used, blinking causes her outline to be intruded.
*When you save the flash file, the buttons to choose your own adventure don't work.

===Inside References===
* There are pictures of Homestar in all his previous [[Homestar Runner#Halloween Costumes|Halloween costumes]] on the back wall of his [[Homestar's House|house]].
* The gun Pom Pom draws at the end is from [[In Search of the Yello Dello]].
* The tofu sculpture that Homestar turns into in one of the endings is from [[The Luau]].
* "What wouldst thou deau?" is a reference to [[video games]] and [[Thy Dungeonman]].
* Strong Bad mentions that Coach Z didn't dress as a rapper this year (although the coach claims that Theo Huxtable is indeed a rapper) as he had in all of the previous [[Coach Z#Halloween Costumes|Halloween Toons]].
* French Homestar singing "Getting lucky tonight" is a reference to [[Cool Things]]; Strong Sad sings the same phrase.
* The circus peanuts that appear in the Homsar Easter egg were also used when Homestar comes to the door in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]].
* Pom Pom is wearing the same [[Homestar's Shades|shades]] that [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]] usually sports.
* Strong Sad's line, "Each day we die a little more," and Marzipan's line, "I'm not the only girl," are references to their respective lines from the [[Spin 'n' Say]].
* The King's bucket of chicken is from [[monster truck]].
* Homestar's costume acne looks like the "bad zits" that he got when Strong Bad poked him with a pin in [[pom pom]].
* The [[Orange Tupperware#Orange Spoon|orange Tupperware spoon]] appears in Bubs' collection of stirring utensils.
* The eye implanted in Homestar's forehead resembles the fake eye he wore in [[Malloween Commercial]].

===Real-World References===
*[[wikipedia:Ronald Reagan|Ronald Reagan]] was the 40th president of the United States. "Nancy" refers to his widow, [[wikipedia:Nancy Reagan|Nancy Reagan]]. [[Wikipedia:Jelly beans|Jelly beans]] were famously one of Reagan's favorite foods. Reagan was also known for usually starting his statements with the word "well." He was famous for his economic policies, called "[[Wikipedia:Reaganomics|Reaganomics]]." He also did have [[Wikipedia:List_of_presidential_pets|pets]], among them a [[Wikipedia:Cavalier_king_charles_spaniel|Cavalier King Charles Spaniel]] named [[Wikipedia:Cavalier_king_charles_spaniel#Famous_Cavalier_King_Charles_Spaniels|Rex]].
*The phrase "I'm selling these fine leather jackets" is a reference to multiple PC games created by ''[[Wikipedia:LucasArts|LucasArts]]'' which featured the line as a running gag. They included ''[[Wikipedia:Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade|Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade]]'', the ''[[Wikipedia:Monkey Island|Monkey Island]]'' series, ''[[Wikipedia:Sam and Max|Sam and Max]]'' and ''[[Wikipedia:Full Throttle|Full Throttle]]''.
*[[Wikipedia:Hoisin Sauce|Hoisin sauce]], a fermented soy bean paste, is used as a condiment and also as a glaze for roasted meats, most commonly with [[Wikipedia:Peking Duck|Peking Duck]]. It is often referred to as "Chinese barbecue sauce."
*"Taco-Man" is the signature character of the website [http://www.ebolaworld.com Ebolaworld], which has used Homestar in cameos on more than one occasion. Perhaps the Brothers Chaps have decided to repay the favor. (As a side note, the Halloween special that Ebolaworld had planned for the same year was also a choose-your-own adventure cartoon.)
*"THAT'S A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! A LOT!" is a reference to the bank teller in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, who said it if you deposited more than fifty rupees all at once. This was the first game that Tingle appeared in, so it's quite appropriate.
*Homsar throwing the confetti is a reference to his costume ([[Wikipedia:Tingle|Tingle]]), who also throws confetti when he says the magic words ("Tingle, Tingle, Kooloo-limpah!").
*Strong Bad saying "Meka Leka Hi, Meka ... Ho" is from a character called Jambi The Genie (who he is dressed as) from the CBS Saturday morning show ''[[Wikipedia:Pee-wee's Playhouse|Pee-Wee's Playhouse]]''. Actually, the whole quote is supposed to be "Meka Leka Hi, Meka Hiney Ho!"
*[[Wikipedia:Lando Calrissian|Lando Calrissian]] is a character from the ''[[Wikipedia:Star Wars|Star Wars]]'' films, played by [[Wikipedia:Billy Dee Williams|Billy Dee Williams]]. It is a reasonably popular misconception of some people (including apparently Homestar) that Lando and Apollo Creed were played by the same actor, though Apollo Creed is played by Carl Weathers.
*Homsar's line ("location, location, location") refers to the three most important things in [[Wikipedia:real estate|real estate]]. His costume character, Tingle, serves to help Link navigate by selling him maps in ''The Legend of Zelda'' series.
*The Cutters (on Homestar's T-shirt) is the name of the town group that was featured in the 1979 movie ''[[Wikipedia:Breaking Away|Breaking Away]]'', a movie about a group of bicyclists at [[Wikipedia:Indiana University Bloomington|Indiana University]] that race in the annual "[[Wikipedia:Little 500|Little 500]]" every spring. Homestar's character, Moocher, was a member of the group.
*Walter Sobchak is a character from ''[[Wikipedia:The Big Lebowski|The Big Lebowski]]'', played by [[Wikipedia:John Goodman|John Goodman]]. The severed toe with nail polish is a plot device in this movie; Sobchack even says the line, "I can get you a toe, with nail polish," as does Coach Z on Pom Pom's behalf. "You're entering a world of pain" and "DONNY, YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT!" (said on behalf of Pom Pom by Homestar and Strong Mad respectively) were also repeated sayings of Sobchak's in the movie. Donny (in Strong Mad's quote) refers to Theodore Donald 'Donny' Kerabatsos, played by [[Wikipedia:Steve Buscemi|Steve Buscemi]].
*Bubs' quote "Baby, you've got a [[Witches' Brew|witches' brew]] goin'" is a reference to the television show ''[[Wikipedia:Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'', where [[Wikipedia:Carl Weathers|Carl Weathers]], the actor who played [[Wikipedia:Apollo Creed|Apollo Creed]], portrays himself as extremely cheap, and sometimes comments that if certain leftover foods are combined, "Baby, you've got a stew goin'."
*[[wikipedia:Oliver Cromwell|Oliver Cromwell]] was a 17th century English military commander who became Lord Protector after leading the rebellion that resulted in the execution of Charles I. Homestar probably ''meant'' to say [[Wikipedia:Oliver North|Oliver North]], a prominent figure in the [[Wikipedia:Iran Contra Affair|Iran Contra Affair]].
*Rose petal essence was an ingredient for the spell to turn into an eagle or fly in ''[[Wikipedia:King's Quest III|King's Quest III]]''. Especially given this allusion, the whole premise of the cartoon is likely based on the formulaic combination of ingredients, stirring, and magic words required to perform the [http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/the_fairway/game_pages/kings_quest_3.html spells] in King's Quest III.
*[[Wikipedia:Natalie Imbruglia|Natalie Imbruglia]] is an Australian-born singer and actress. However, Strong Sad and Marzipan both mispronounce her last name (the "g" is silent).
*"[[Wikipedia:Sara Lee|Sara Lee]]" is an American consumer-goods company and is also the brand name of a number of frozen and packaged foods, including cheesecake.

*''[[wikipedia:Jurassic Park III|Jurassic Park III]]'' is a movie in the ''[[wikipedia:Jurassic Park|Jurassic Park]]'' series.
*The secret blend of eleven herbs and spices is a reference to [[wikipedia:KFC|KFC's]] claim that [[Wikipedia:Colonel Sanders|Colonel Sanders']] recipe had eleven secret herbs and spices, although it curiously does not claim that this is the recipe in current use.
* Homestar's shoes are [[Wikipedia:Converse All-Stars|Converse All-Stars]].
* Bubs' comment about "Stick and move! Stick and move!" is a reference to the advice Duke gave Apollo Creed in [[IMDb:0075148|the original Rocky movie]]. [http://www.filmsite.org/rock5.html]
*[http://www.hovan.com Hovan] is a restaurant chain in Florida and Georgia, located in mall food courts, that sell [[Wikipedia:Gyro|gyro-style]] wraps.
*The surprisingly high jump the Cheat makes is the effect of getting hit by a shell, invincible character, etc., in ''Mario Kart 64'', where the kart landed with a similar POOMP. Also, the respective noises The Cheat makes sound very close to what Toad says when he wins a race ("I'm the best!") as well as Toad's cries when he has been hit.
*Bubs' recommendation of "eye of newt" and "toe of frog" is a quotation from [http://www.bartleby.com/70/4141.html Act IV, Scene 1, line 16] of Shakespeare's ''[[Wikipedia:Macbeth|Macbeth]]'', one of the most famous and influential depictions of witches in Western culture.
*[[Wikipedia:The Golden Girls|The Golden Girls]] was a popular sitcom about four elderly women living in Miami that originally aired on NBC.
*Strong Sad's words as Homestar departs are taken from [[Wikipedia:Devo|Devo]]'s 1980 hit "Whip It."
*[[Wikipedia:Windex|Windex]] is a trademark for a liquid glass and surface cleaning product made by [[Wikipedia:S. C. Johnson & Son|S. C. Johnson & Son]].
*"Keanu Reagan" is probably a reference to [[Wikipedia:Keanu Reeves|Keanu Reeves]], an actor most famous for his roles in ''Speed'' and the ''Matrix'' trilogy.

==Transcript==

''{Spooky sounds play against a darkened wall. Homestar Runner's shadow appears from the left, and Homestar himself then appears suddenly.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Wah! You scared me! So, here's the deal: I'm lost inside this haunted mansion, and I need your help to find my costume and get outta here! So, what should we do first?

''{The screen displays: 'WHAT SHOULD WE DO?? 1. PET A GOAT 2. MAKE A STEW 3. "I'M SELLING THESE FINE LEATHER JACKETS..."' A "COSTUME LOCATOR" is in the lower left and a "HEALTH & BEAUTY" indicator, showing 100%, is in the lower right. Then, after a moment, the lights suddenly come on and the camera pans back, revealing the interior of Homestar's house, including pictures of Homestar's past costumes framed on the wall. Marzipan walks up with a wig and a pile of clothes. A sheet of paper can be seen in front of Homestar, with doodles all over it and several markers scattered around it.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' What up, Homestar? Here's your costume!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{taking the costume}'' Oh, thanks. You win!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{noticing the paper and markers}'' Homestar Michael Runner, what did you do—

''{A closeup of the paper is shown. It reads:}''

<div style="text-align:center; padding:8px; border: 1pt solid #000; width:300px">Halloween Potion 1. *****-Water 2. Powdered ********* 3. Essence of ********* Stir ingredients with a *********** Say this magic incantation: *****************************</div>

''{Drawings of bugs and [[Ducks|ducks]] obscure all of the important parts, asterisked. Also, Homestar has written "MEAN SEAN", "QUACK TIME", and "COOL DUCK" on various parts of the paper.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' —to my Halloween Potion recipe?

''{Homestar and Marzipan appear again.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, yeah. ''{turns away from Marzipan}'' Marzipaaan! Can I draw ducks and bugs all over the recipe for your Halloween Potion?

'''MARZIPAN:''' No way, Jorge. You're gonna figure out what those ingredients were and bring 'em back here before midnight. Now march your skinny white butt into those spooky woods, mister!

''{Music starts.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{humbly}'' Yes, Mom-zipan.

''{The screen displays "HALLOWEEN POTION-MA-JIG" and "A MAKE-YOUR-OWN-DECISION-VENTURE", followed by the usual credits (with the notable addition of "[[Jonathan Howe|Jonathan]] programs"), over the drawings of bugs and ducks. Then, cut to the spooky forest, where Homestar is now in costume.}''

===The Water===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right! These spooky woods gotta be chock full of spooky ingredients! Let's see, the first one is ''{pulls out the paper}'' "Something Water." Hmmmmmmmm...

'''COACH Z:''' ''{from a distance}'' Really?

''{cut to Coach Z and Pom Pom}''

'''COACH Z:''' Then how come they'll be all nice to ya and act like they like ya to your face?

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles}''

'''COACH Z:''' Guess I have a lot to learn about mailmen...

''{Homestar walks up}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, what are you guys doin' out here? Did you ruin somebody's magic potion too?

'''COACH Z:''' Uh... nope. Unless Coach Z's life is a magic potion.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cool, cool, depressing, cool. So, um...

''{A box shows up reading "CHOICE TIME!!!" and the three choices:}''

==== 1. Do either of you have any... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Do either of you have any cash on you? I'm trying to get a me a sandwich or somethin'. Uh, my car broke down and I'm out of gas.

'''COACH Z:''' Oh, sorry man. All I gots is this bottle of, uh, ghost water?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That's perfect! I was planning on blowin' that money on ghost water anyways.

''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items you get. The first blank is filled with "Ghost Water". A victory sound plays.}''

==== 2. I need something that would be... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I need something that would be good in a Halloween Potion.

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles and pulls a severed toe out of his pocket}''

'''COACH Z:''' Pom Pom can getcha a toe. With nail polish!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Um... do you have anything waterier? Or... more waterish? Or waterian?

'''COACH Z:''' Please, Homestar, stop! Just take this bottle of questionable water that I keep on my person at all times for questionable reasons!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I won't question that!

''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items you get. The first blank is filled with "Questionable Water". A victory sound plays.}''

==== 3. Taco-Man came by... ====
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Taco-Man came by, he gave me some water—he gave me some water. What are you guys gonna do for me?

'''COACH Z:''' Pom Pom, give the man some stank water. I will not be upstaged by Taco-Man two years in a row!

''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items you get. The first blank is filled with "Stank Water". A victory sound plays.}''

=== The Powder ===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, I gotta keep searchin'. ''{starts to walk offscreen to the right}'' Too bad I probably won't run into anybody else mysteriously hanging out in the woods.

''{Cut to The King of Town and The Poopsmith. Holes are dug all over the place. Homestar walks up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh! Whaddaya know! How ya diggin'?

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oh! We're certainly not trying to unearth the ham sandwich that I buried here when I was nine!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Good. 'Cause I found that thing like two months ago. It wasn't that good. Too much mayo.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Too much mayo?! I love too much mayo!

''{The choice dialogue comes up again.}''

==== 1. Hey! I've got it... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, I've got it! I'll give you a detailed account of the consumption of your ham sammie if you give me a powdered item for this Potion-ma-jig!

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Sweet deal! Take some of this powdered Thanksgiving! Now let's hear it!

''{The screen starts to fade out.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, so first I washed all the dirt off with some Windex. That made it all blue and soggy...

''{It fades back in. The King of Town has his head lowered in emotion. His Chicken Basket is empty.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...and that last bite nearly made me puke it right back on my plate!

''{Homestar walks off and takes the powder as he goes.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oh, I wish you had. I surely wish you had!

''{The scorecard returns. The second blank is filled with "Powdered Thanksgiving".}''

==== 2. I say, is that a powdered... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I say, is that a powdered wig you're wearing, your Kentucky Fried-ness? 'Cause I'm in the market for some powdery dealings!

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{pulls out a pouch}'' Well, I've got my secret blend of eleven herbs and spices. But, of course, you can't have that!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aw, that's too bad, I guess I'll just go on home and— ''{starts popping in and out of the holes, snatching the powder while he hops around}'' Pyong-pyong-pyong-pyong-pyong! ''{appears from one of the holes, holding the powder}'' So long, suckers!

''{Homestar drops back into the hole.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Ha! That blend was just a decoy! It only has ''ten'' herbs and spices!

''{The scorecard appears with "Powdered Herbs & Spices".}''

==== 3. Poopsmith, do I dare ask... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Poopsmith, do I dare ask what powdered delights you've unearthed?

''{The Poopsmith digs in the dirt and a pouch pops out, which Homestar catches.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ooh, ground ground. Thanks thanks, guys guys.

''{The scorecard appears with "Powdered Ground Ground"}''

===Homsar===

''{This scene only happens if you click on the upper half of The Poopsmith as Homestar walks away (an Easter egg). Homsar is floating on a balloon, as per his costume (Tingle from [[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda Series]].) Homestar walks up, and looks at him, annoyed.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, great, the secret guy!

'''HOMSAR:''' AaAaA—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Just gimme my choices!

''{Homsar throws confetti, and the bottom of the screen reads:}''

<blockquote>
HOISIN SAUCE! 
2TH: HORSE IT ON IN THERE! 
THAT'S A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! 
> What wouldst thou deau?</blockquote>

''{With [[The Hornblower]]'s head and some circus peanuts over it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What I'm supposed to do with that mess?! I'm outta here!

''{Homestar walks away.}''

'''HOMSAR:''' Location, location, location!

=== The Essence ===

''{Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat are standing around a cliff, with broken TVs littering the area. Strong Bad's face is obscured by the cabinet doors on his costume. Strong Mad grunts and tosses a broken TV. Homestar walks up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whoa. This is a cool new background!

''{The TV Strong Mad tossed falls in the background.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{opening his costume's doors}'' Yeah! We were just burying our problems here in the spooky woods when we found this creepy cliff! It's perfect for the chucking off of busted old TVs.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Essence of busted old TVs? 'Cuz I got a serious jones!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, I think these TVs lost their essence in the seventies. What are you doing here, anyways?

''{The choice box returns:}''

==== 1. I've always felt that... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I've always felt that essence of rose petals is my very most favorite essence.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, I agree, The Cheat. Essence of doo doo meringue has always been my favorite. In fact, there's a whole bunch of it down at the bottom of this cliff you can have.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{jumping off the cliff}'' Cannonball!

''{The scorecard appears with "Essence of Doo doo meringue"}''

==== 2. I'm trying to ruin Marzipan's... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'm trying to ruin Marzipan's Halloween Potion. Got any leads?

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's a worthy cause if ever there was one! How about this essence of putting Strong Mad's hand in warm water while he's asleep?

'''STRONG MAD:''' MY SECRET SHAME!

''{The Cheat tosses a bottle off the cliff. Homestar jumps after it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks a lot you guuuuuuuuuys!

''{The scorecard returns with "Essence of Putting Strong Mad's hand in warm water while he's asleep".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, me too. Let's have a race to the food court. Here's the starting line. Ready, go!

''{The Cheat draws a line in dirt next to the cliff's edge.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{running over cliff}'' Eat my duuuuuuuust!

''{The scorecard returns with "Essence of Gullibility".}''

===The stirring utensil===

''{Cut back to Strong Bad's posse}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Meka-leka-hi-meka-The Cheat throw a TV on 'im...

'''STRONG BAD:''' ... ho.

''{The doors on Strong Bad's costume close once more. Cut to Bubs, standing by a canister labeled "BUBS' MO'BILE CAN o' STIRRING UTENSILS". ("Bile" is in green.) Homestar bounces once on the ground and then lands on his feet next to Bubs. The TV crashes behind Homestar at the same spot where he had bounced off, narrowly missing him.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whoa, Bubs. Fancy runnin' into you in the middle of the spooky woods sellin' stirring utensils.

'''BUBS:''' It's a niche market!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' So, what kind of concoctions might one stir with your wares?

'''BUBS:''' Well, a little eye of newt, some toe of frog, baby, you got a witches' brew goin'!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, that's my line! So, how do I score one of those jobbies?

'''BUBS:''' Oh, they're free. But you gotta ''earn'' 'em!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Uh, that doesn't sound free at all.

'''BUBS:''' Well then, you just gotta ''earn'' 'em!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' How should I do that?

''{The choice box returns:}''

==== 1. Do a dance ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{dances}'' A little to the left, come on, come on, back to the right, shake it around. ''{he repeats it over Bubs's next line}''

'''BUBS:''' Oh, yeah! Stick and move, stick and move! You're pretty good, shorty. ''{pulls a red spoon from his canister}'' That's worth at least a ''Jurassic Park III'' collector's spoon.

''{The scorecard returns with "Stirring utensil: JP3 Collector Spoon".}''

==== 2. Sing a song ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, here goes. Two and three and four. ''{singing, and Bubs covers his ears}'' Backyard peaches! Treats come true! Karate Summer, what wouldja do? The world is the egg, and diapers come true...

'''BUBS:''' Oh! Heard enough of that one! You... you get a chewed-up pen.

''{The scorecard returns with "Stirring utensil: Chewed Up Pen".}''

==== 3. Reagan impression ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{leaning over, in a low voice}'' Well... well... Nancy and I... economics... well... rap music... jellybeans... well... we... probably had a... pet...

'''BUBS:''' That's the worst Ronald Reagan impression I've ever heard!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{standing upright}'' ''Ronald'' Reagan?! I was doing my Keanu Reagan!

'''BUBS:''' Just take this terlet brush and get outta here!

''{The scorecard returns with "Stirring utensil: Terlet Brush".}''

===The magic words===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{walking off}'' Thanks, Great American Bubs!

''{Cut to a closeup of Homestar}''

''{Cut to Strong Sad, half-buried and asleep. Homestar walks up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Sad. Nice fire hydrant costume!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh! Mineral water! ''{wakes up and looks at Homestar}'' What?

''{The choice box returns:}''

==== 1. I just graduated... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I just graduated. What should my epitaph say?

'''STRONG SAD:''' Homestar, do you even have half a brain?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hot biscuits! Those are the best magic words I've ever heards!

''{The scorecard appears with "Magic Words: Do you even have half a brain".}''

''{The scorecard appears with "Magic Words: Better Ax Somebod-ay".}''

==== 3. Taco-Man came by... ====

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Taco-Man came by. We played a little foosball, played a little foosball. So, what are some of your favorite words?

'''STRONG SAD:''' In no particular order: Loquentia... Imbruglia... Precipitous... Saralee...cheesecake... Denouement...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Those are great!

''{The scorecard appears with "Magic Words: Loquentia, Imbruglia, Precitpitous, Saraleecheesecake, Denouement". ("Precipitous" is misspelled.)}''

=== The potion ===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks for the words, half-man! ''{walks off}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Go forward! Move ahead! Try to detect it! It's not too late!

''{Cut to Homestar's house, where Homestar and Marzipan are standing near a bubbling cauldron.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right, so here's what I came up with: a bottle of ''{whatever water you obtained}'' water, ''{he throws the bottle into the cauldron}'' some ''{whatever powder you obtained; it's thrown into the cauldron too; he omits "powdered" for all but "Thanksgiving"}'', and essence of ''{whatever essence you obtained; again, he throws it into the cauldron; if you got essence of gullibility, he adds "Whatever that is"}''. ''{Pulls out the stirring utensil}'' And give a little stir with this ''{whatever stirring utensil you obtained}''. And say these magic words. ''{He hands an index card to Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{whatever magic words you obtained—if you picked #3 she actually says "Saraleecheesecakia"}''

''{The cauldron makes a "poof" sound and smoke emerges, and Marzipan dips a cup into it.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Here, Homestar. ''{hands the cup to Homestar}'' Have some Melonade!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Don't mind if I do! ''{He drinks the contents of the cup. Depending on your choices, various things can happen:}''

''{See the fun facts section to see how the endings scenes are chosen. These are the different effects on Homestar:)''

====End 1: [[Tofu Homestar]]====

''{After drinking the potion, Homestar turns into the Tofu Version of himself as seen in [[The Luau]].}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Yay, Homestar! You're back to your old self again!

''{We see the tofu head slide off into the cauldron and a flame covers Tofu Homestar and back to his real old self}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{disappointed}'' Yay, Homestar. You're back to your old self again...

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{singing}'' That costume makes your butt look big.

====End 2: Cycloptic Homestar====

''{Homestar suddenly loses his wig and sprouts one enormous eye on his face.}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{yelps}'' Marzipan! There's only one of you!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Don't tell me you forgot how to use your eyes again.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Do you mean to tell me that I haven't been dating twins this whole time?

'''MARZIPAN:''' I don't think you have to worry about dating anyone from now on.

==Fun Facts==
{{checkstuffpage}}

===Explanations===
*[http://lysy2.archives.nd.edu/cgi-bin/words.exe?Loquentia Loquentia] is a Latin word whose root means to speak or to utter.
*[[Wikipedia:pashmina|Pashmina]] is the fleece of feral Himalayan goats that is used to make shawls that are referred to by the same name. It is similar to cashmere and was quite popular in the mid 1990's.
*[[Wikipedia:Denouement|Denouement]] is the resolution part of a story which comes after its climax.

===Trivia===
* The original potion read:
<div style="text-align:center; padding:8px; border: 1pt solid #000; width:300px">Halloween Potion 1. Ghost-Water 2. Powdered Pigs' Feet 3. Essence of Nightroot Stir ingredients with a wooden spoon Say this magic incantation: 
"Sip it down and swish it 'round"</div>

* This toon was released at about 1:30 a.m. on November 1, Atlanta time. All day the previous day, the button on the main page read, ''"workin' as fast as we can!"''. When the toon was finally released, the button read: ''"it's still halloween!"'' (when you moved your mouse over it, it switched to: ''"in certain timezones!"''). Later in the day, the button was changed to simply read: ''"halloween toon!"''
* The shirt Coach Z is wearing is from ''[[Wikipedia:The Cosby Show|The Cosby Show]]'''s first-season episode "[http://www.tv.com/the-cosby-show/a-shirt-story/episode/6802/summary.html A Shirt Story]," in which Denise tries to hand-make Theo a designer shirt and butchers it in the process. The fictitious brand of shirt was called a "Gordon Gartrelle," and the original cost Theo $95. The "Jammin' on the one" line is a reference to the episode "[http://www.tv.com/a-touch-of-wonder/episode/6836/summary.html|A Touch Of Wonder]," in which guest star [[Wikipedia:Stevie Wonder|Stevie Wonder]] sampled the voices of the Huxtable family and made them into a song.
* There are five endings to this toon. Which ending is seen is determined by adding together all the numbers of the choices made, dividing by five, taking the remainder (numbered zero to four), and adding one. Thus, if you choose 2, 1, 3, 3, and 2, you would get 2 + 1 + 3 + 3 + 2 = 11 / 5 = 2, remainder 1. Add 1 to that, and you get ending 2. (See the talk page for the source code.)
*If the remainder is:
:*0, then you see ending 1: Tofu Homestar. There are 53 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 5, 10, or 15 this ending is displayed.
:*1, then you see ending 2: Cyclops Homestar. There are 50 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 6 or 11 this ending is displayed.
:*2, then you see ending 3: French Homestar. There are 45 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 7 or 12 this ending is displayed.
:*3, then you see ending 4: Freaky Marzipan. There are 45 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 8 or 13 this ending is displayed.
:*4, then you see ending 5: The Goblin. There are 50 combinations that yield this result.
::When the sum of the choices are 9 or 14 this ending is displayed.
*The total number of possible sequences of potion ingredients is 35, or 243.

===Remarks===
* This is the first time Homestar is mentioned as having a middle name ("Michael") in a toon. (In the DVD commentary for [[time capsule]], however, Marzipan offhandedly remarked that Hal was his middle name.)
* All of the [[Spooky_Tree|Spooky Trees]] in the background are the same shape, just in different sizes and orientations. Also, the first two backgrounds for Pom Pom, Coach Z, the Poopsmith, and the King of Town are identical.
* If Homestar does a dance for Bubs, Bubs will refer to Homestar as "Shorty", even though (unless you count Bubs' hat) Homestar is taller than Bubs is.
* Besides stealing Homestar's [[Witches' Brew]] "line," as Homestar points out, Bubs also appropriates the "terlet" pronunciation of "toilet" that Coach Z has used in [[Halloween Fairstival]] and [[A Folky Tale]]. This spelling shows up on the scorecard as well, but Homestar still pronounces it as "toilet" when he hands it over to Marzipan. Homestar's speech impediment causes a mispronunciation of the mispronunciation, making it correct again.
* The Flash file appears to have been updated 12 hours after the toon was originally released. The update expanded the Tofu Homestar scene, and added an extra "THE END" scene and an Easter Egg (The Cheat).
* Homestar's costume includes a pair of shoes. When Marzipan gives him his costume, however, the shoes do not appear to be included.

===Goofs===
*[[Wikipedia:Gossamer_(Looney_Tunes)|Gossamer]] is actually a straight red, not a bright orange.
*When Strong Bad's cabinet doors are open, they appear to be symmetrical, so they shouldn't be able to fit together when closed.

===Glitches===
*You can see a "hiccup" in the animation of the pot's bubbling when the cartoon switches to one of the variables in the combination you made.
*Unlike the other characters, Homsar shows scroll-over information during the finale Easter eggs even while the rest of the characters comment on their costumes. This is because he is a sprite that overlays the scene.
*When you click on The Cheat at the end, Strong Bad's head changes size and his mouth closes a bit, and everybody moves slightly.
*When clicking on most of the characters that activate Easter Eggs at the end, Marzipan's mouth changes expression unexpectedly.
*When Marzipan's angry expression is used, blinking causes her outline to be intruded.
*If you save the flash file, the buttons to choose your own adventure don't work.

[[Wikipedia:Jelly beans|Jelly beans]] were famously one of Reagan's favorite foods. Reagan was also known for usually starting his statements with the word "well." He was famous for his economic policies, called "[[Wikipedia:Reaganomics|Reaganomics]]." He also did have [[Wikipedia:List_of_presidential_pets|pets]], among them a [[Wikipedia:Cavalier_king_charles_spaniel|Cavalier King Charles Spaniel]] named [[Wikipedia:Cavalier_king_charles_spaniel#Famous_Cavalier_King_Charles_Spaniels|Rex]].
*The phrase "I'm selling these fine leather jackets" is a reference to multiple PC games created by ''[[Wikipedia:LucasArts|LucasArts]]'' which featured the line as a running gag.

*[[Wikipedia:Hoisin Sauce|Hoisin sauce]], a fermented soy bean paste, is used as a condiment and also as a glaze for roasted meats, most commonly with [[Wikipedia:Peking Duck|Peking Duck]]. It is often referred to as "Chinese barbecue sauce."
*"Taco-Man" is the signature character of the website [http://www.ebolaworld.com Ebolaworld], which has used Homestar in cameos on more than one occasion. Perhaps the Brothers Chaps have decided to repay the favor. (As a side note, the Halloween special that Ebolaworld had planned for the same year was also a choose-your-own adventure cartoon.)
*"THAT'S A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! A LOT!" is a reference to the bank teller in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, who said it if you deposited more than fifty rupees all at once. This was the first game that Tingle appeared in, so it's quite appropriate.
*Homsar throwing the confetti is a reference to his costume ([[Wikipedia:Tingle|Tingle]]), who also throws confetti when he says the magic words ("Tingle, Tingle, Kooloo-limpah!").
*Strong Bad saying "Meka Leka Hi, Meka ... Ho" is from a character called Jambi The Genie (who he is dressed as) from the CBS Saturday morning show ''[[Wikipedia:Pee-wee's Playhouse|Pee-Wee's Playhouse]]''. Actually, the whole quote is supposed to be "Meka Leka Hi, Meka Hiney Ho!"
*[[Wikipedia:Lando Calrissian|Lando Calrissian]] is a character from the ''[[Wikipedia:Star Wars|Star Wars]]'' films, played by [[Wikipedia:Billy Dee Williams|Billy Dee Williams]].

Homestar's character, Moocher, was a member of the group.
*Walter Sobchak is a character from ''[[Wikipedia:The Big Lebowski|The Big Lebowski]]'', played by [[Wikipedia:John Goodman|John Goodman]]. The severed toe with nail polish is a plot device in this movie; Sobchack even says the line, "I can get you a toe, with nail polish," as does Coach Z on Pom Pom's behalf. "You're entering a world of pain" and "DONNY, YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT!" (said on behalf of Pom Pom by Homestar and Strong Mad respectively) were also repeated sayings of Sobchak's in the movie. Donny (in Strong Mad's quote) refers to Theodore Donald 'Donny' Kerabatsos, played by [[Wikipedia:Steve Buscemi|Steve Buscemi]].
*Bubs' quote "Baby, you've got a [[Witches' Brew|witches' brew]] goin'" is a reference to the television show ''[[Wikipedia:Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'', where [[Wikipedia:Carl Weathers|Carl Weathers]], the actor who played [[Wikipedia:Apollo Creed|Apollo Creed]], portrays himself as extremely cheap, and sometimes comments that if certain leftover foods are combined, "Baby, you've got a stew goin'."
*[[wikipedia:Oliver Cromwell|Oliver Cromwell]] was a 17th century English military commander who became Lord Protector after leading the rebellion that resulted in the execution of Charles I. Homestar probably ''meant'' to say [[Wikipedia:Oliver North|Oliver North]], a prominent figure in the [[Wikipedia:Iran Contra Affair|Iran Contra Affair]].
*Rose petal essence was an ingredient for the spell to turn into an eagle or fly in ''[[Wikipedia:King's Quest III|King's Quest III]]''. Especially given this allusion, the whole premise of the cartoon is likely based on the formulaic combination of ingredients, stirring, and magic words required to perform the [http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/the_fairway/game_pages/kings_quest_3.html spells] in King's Quest III.
*[[Wikipedia:Natalie Imbruglia|Natalie Imbruglia]] is an Australian-born singer and actress. However, Strong Sad and Marzipan both mispronounce her last name (the "g" is silent).

Also, the respective noises The Cheat makes sound very close to what Toad says when he wins a race ("I'm the best!") as well as Toad's cries when he has been hit.
*Bubs' recommendation of "eye of newt" and "toe of frog" is a quotation from [http://www.bartleby.com/70/4141.html Act IV, Scene 1, line 16] of Shakespeare's ''[[Wikipedia:Macbeth|Macbeth]]'', one of the most famous and influential depictions of witches in Western culture.
