Transcript
{Opens on a yellow bush with "a prickly, scary short" written on it, as a beat plays and some wind rushes by. Cut to Homestar, talking to Rafferty.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: All right, Rafferty, my maybe-cousin, maybe-nephew, maybe-at-risk-youth-outreach-program-mentee!
RAFFERTY: {cheers indistinctly}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: If you wanna come to this year's Halloween party, you gotta have a good enough ghost story! Now take ya best shot!
RAFFERTY: Once upon a time, there was a head-a-less mommy.
{An image of a woman appears, and her head falls off with a pop.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Wait, a mummy {an image of a mummy appears} or mommy? {the mummy's wrappings fall off, leaving the same woman (with her head) as the previous image}
RAFFERTY: Muommy! {an image of the woman with a mummy head and left arm appears}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {sardonic} Great, that really clears things up.
RAFFERTY: {with the original image of the woman next to him} And there was a prickly, {pointed blades spawn from the woman's body} scary, {the woman's face distorts} scary {it further distorts, becoming cycloptic and green} mommy!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Hold on. Are we talking about two different mommies? One head-a-less {the headless woman appears on the left side of the screen} and one prickly scary scary, {the "prickly scary scary" woman appears on the right; both slide upward} or just one mommy {the original woman appears} that is both headless and prickly scary scary? {The woman's head flies off, the blades reappear, and the cycloptic eye and mouth appear on the woman's torso}
RAFFERTY: And the other two persons...
{The Sad Kids walk up.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Wait, what other two persons?! Where did they come from?!
RAFFERTY: The other two persons getted gooey! {black goop falls on the Sad Kids}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: They getted gooey?!
{Rafferty is now lying on the ground, and points upward.}
RAFFERTY: And getted blecthed up!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Blecthed up, huh?
{Rafferty nods.}
RAFFERTY: The end.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Of course it is. Sorry, kid, but you're not comin' to this year's party. Let's see if your sister can do any better. Preshy?
{Pan up to show Preshy standing on Homestar's head, holding a hammer.}
PRESHY: {hits Homestar at the beginning of each line} Is a computer? Is a computer? Is a computer?
{Rafferty leans in and both laugh. Preshy hits Homestar and the screen cuts to a screen reading "blecthed." Fade to at night, where Homestar alone stands, costumed and in silhouette.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Psst! Hey, Strong Bad! Why am I the only one here?
STRONG BAD: {leaning in} 'Cuz your costume's too good! Nobody else wanted to dress up!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: But you guys told me to dress like this! I don't even get the reference!
STRONG BAD: That's perfect! Look, just get ready to say the line!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Why do I have to say that word?
STRONG BAD: Oh, you'll see! Everybody's gonna love it! Just trust me!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Okay, here goes:
{Strong Bad ducks away and a drumroll plays as the camera zooms in on Homestar. As the drumroll finishes, Homestar comes fully into view. He looks around for a moment, and then raises the arms of his costume.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Mawwiage!
{Applause. A text box reading "Homestar as The Impressive Clergyman" appears below him.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: I still don't get the reference. Makin' me dress up like grody old Pope Santam'n.
{Fade out. The word "ended." appears from the top of the screen.}
