{Start out with The Cheat holding the "Strong Badia Action Cool News 5" sign and making the news station noises from local news. He moves the sign away, and Strong Bad looks to the camera.}
STRONG BAD: Good evening, yes, thank you, and as always, tonight. In neighborhood news, {A picture of a porch with Halloween decorations zooms in on the right side of the screen with the caption "Obscene Ween?"} residents are up in no arms about some seasonal decorations. While they were out looking at Halloween decor, {the picture of the porch zooms to cover the whole screen} they got more than they bargained for.
{The camera does a quick pan to reveal that there is an animatronic statue of the horrible painting also on the porch.}
HORRIBLE PAINTING: Come on in he-e-ere!
{Cut to angry Homestar Runner, labeled as "Concerned Citizen", in front of a front door}
ANGRY HOMESTAR: That thing has no place in the neighborhood, and should be taken down at once! As someone who's dealt with the jibblies before, I can say that it's in very poor taste!
{Cut back to the news desk in Strong Badia}
STRONG BAD: But the owner of the ungodly adornment insists it's all... just a lot of fun.
{Cut back to the porch, where a mustachioed Homestar Runner, labeled as "Unconcerned Citizen", has joined the statue.}
MUSTACHIOED HOMESTAR: It's just a lot of fun. And I love Halloween! And I like to have a lot of fun as I've said! I don't think there's anything wrong with getting a little jibbly this time of year. Do you? 'Cause I don't, as I've said! Why I remember getting the jibblies myself each year when I was a kid. Let's get it right now! Hit me, creeptake! {knocks the statue, which lights up}
HORRIBLE PAINTING: Come on in he-e-ere!
MUSTACHIOED HOMESTAR: Wha-hoh! A-jibblie-jibblie-jibblie! Oh, what a thrill! Oh, as I've said! Oh-ho-ho!
{Cut back to angry Homestar}
ANGRY HOMESTAR: Kids!? He has the nerve to talk about kids? I wouldn't let my kids near that thing! Have you heard the kind of stuff that comes out of its mouth?
{Cut to The Cheat, who is wearing a witch's hat, carrying a trick-or-treat bag, and singing while walking up to the front porch}
HORRIBLE PAINTING: {subtitled} I totally just ate your cat.
THE CHEAT: {screams and makes jibblie-like The Cheat noises}
HORRIBLE PAINTING: {subtitled} I've been inside your house... What is with that wallpaper?
{Zoom in closer on the gargoyle's face}
HORRIBLE PAINTING: {subtitled} Later on tonight I'm going to creep outside your window and slowly peel a single potato!
{Cut back to The Cheat, which is briefly a close-up of his face}
THE CHEAT: {screams and makes jibblie-like The Cheat noises} {runs away}
{Cut back to the news desk in Strong Badia}
STRONG BAD: Ahh, such interesting human interest. Well, this is one reporter who's glad he didn't have to go out... and get the jibblies. Heh heh.
{Zoom out to see the statue right next to him}
HORRIBLE PAINTING: Come... on... in he-e-ere!!!
STRONG BAD: {overlapping} Aaaaahhhhh!!! {while running offscreen} Jibbliejibbliejibbliejibbliejibbliejibbliejibblie...
HORRIBLE PAINTING: That's it for tonight's news. {The Cheat holds the sign up, and Strong Bad comes back onscreen, still dealing with the jibblies.} "Action Cool News. We're investiga-awesome!"
