Special 1: Halloween
(Play Candy Girl by New Edition for this first section.)
The Space Tree is Halloween themed. Everybody has been dressed for the occasion. Throughout the song, all the kids are having fun doing Halloween activities, such as carving pumpkins, feeding animals and playing bean bag toss. They are continuing to have more fun and designed their costumes for Halloween. Everybody was having fun and started getting ready for trick-or-treating.
Eight of Spades exits the barracks and getting ready for her favorite day of the year.
Eight of Spades: I love Halloween so much.
Ace Savvy: Yeah. It's our first Halloween in space!
One-Eyed Jack: Yeah. It's the best. We get candy and we get to carve pumpkins.
Queen of Diamonds: Yup.
Royal Flush: What are we waiting for? Let's go have some Halloween fun!
They left.
In the lab, Card Counter is currently working on something when General Disarray enters.
General Disarray: Hey. What are you doing?
Card Counter: I shouldn't be talking to you because you're a villain.
General Disarray: I was just wondering what you're doing.
Card Counter: Rawls wanted me to create something Halloween themed, so why not do it with science?
General Disarray: Cool. Mind if I help you? I'm a genius in my town. I know I'm a supervillain and you're a superhero, but still. I want to help.
Card Counter: Sure.
He starts to work with Card Counter.
General Disarray: I'm good at science.
Card Counter: I know. I've read it in your Instagram. So what kind of inventions do you make?
General Disarray: Well, I once created a Love Spray, but it failed because the girls were in love with me too much. So I got rid of it by jumping in mud. Unfortunately, they all got pissed and dressed me up as Cupid, but messed up the costume. It was the worst Valentines Day I have ever had in my life.
Card Counter: I honestly feel bad for you. Is that how you went crazy and took over your town?
General Disarray: Yeah. But I did it as a Dwarf Engineer.
Card Counter: I see. Well, let's continue the experiment together. And there might be a chance it turns everyone in here into zombies.
General Disarray: Oh shit.
Card Counter: Yeah. But if we work together, we can get rid of the errors and make this a perfect experiment.
General Disarray: Okay. Let's do it.
With the honeybee scouts...
Bessie: I am so ready for Halloween again!
She is dressed as Wonder Woman.
Penny: I love candy!
She is dressed as She-Hulk. Linus approaches them.
Linus: Hey Guys. Would you like to hear a story about the Great Pumpkin?
Bessie: What's the Great Pumpkin?
Linus: I'm glad you asked, Bessie. Every year, the Great Pumpkin rises from the pumpkin patch with his bag of toys...
Portia and Gwen, who are dressed as Sherri and Terri from The Simpsons, bursted out laughing.
Portia: You must be stupid as fuck if you believe that shit!
Gwen: Yeah! There's no such thing as the Great Pumpkin! You must be fucking stupid if you believe that!
Linus: You're wrong! The Great Pumpkin is real! And I'm gonna prove it.
He leaves angrily.
In Colonel Rawls' office, he is hosting a pumpkin carving contest.
Colonel Rawls: Remember. Whoever has carved the best pumpkin wins. If I can you cheating, you will be disqualified and you will drop and give me 20!
Linus enters.
Linus: Hey Rawls, I have a question.
Colonel Rawls: What is it, Linus?
Linus: Do you believe in the Great Pumpkin?
Colonel Rawls: What the hell is a Great Pumpkin?
Lucy stops carving her pumpkin and grabs Linus angrily.
Lucy: Oh no! You are not gonna do this bullshit in space! Bad enough that you do it on Earth, and we don't need you doing it in space! Now (She kicks Linus out.) get out of here with your make believe bullshit!
Linus got up.
Linus: Why doesn't anyone believe? (Darcy approaches him while dressed as a cheetah.) Do you believe in the Great Pumpkin?
Darcy: Who?
Linus: Oh forget it!
He walks away and notices Freedom Pals.
Mysterion: If you're gonna ask us about that Great Pumpkin bullshit, the answer is no!
The Coon: Yeah! We don't believe in make believe shit!
Human Kite: Yeah. Just face it, Linus. The Great Pumpkin isn't real.
Toolshed: Yeah. Just don't bother trying to prove it's real because it doesn't.
The Coon: I swear, whoever believes in the Great Pumpkin bullshit has zero braincells.
They left.
Linus: Call Girl, you believe me, right?
Call Girl: No. I don't believe in make believe stuff.
She leaves.
Linus: I'll show you. I'll show all of you! (He gets on a ship.) I know a place full of Pumpkin people. I think it's called Pumpkin Planet or something. But whatever. Time to prove that the Great Pumpkin is real!
He flies out of the space tree.
(Play Sugar, Sugar by The Archies for this section.)
Bessie and Penny are trick-or-treating around the space tree. Multiple people in the space tree give them candy and put them in the the bags. Bessie and Penny continue to get candy from everyone. Sharon gives them candy, and then they continue to trick-or-treat and get candy. They continued to get more candy. After all that, they are finished trick-or-treating.
Bessie: Best trick-or-treating ever...
Penny: Yeah.
Card Counter enters the party room with the Halloween theme drink she created.
Card Counter: Perfect! Just in time for the Halloween party.
She leaves the room.
General Disarray: We both did a really good job.
Card Counter: You said it. Now let's go trick-or-treating before the party starts.
They left the entrance of the room.
Linus lands on Pumpkin Planet and starts to search for the Great Pumpkin. He starts asking around.
Linus: Hello?
Pumpkin Person: Yeah?
Linus: I'm looking for the Great Pumpkin.
Pumpkin Person: Yeah. He lives in the tallest mountain of this planet. If you want to get to him, you have to travel there.
Linus: Wait, so the Great Pumpkin is real, and he lives in space?
Pumpkin Person: Yes! He's real! He's our king!
Linus: Oh, okay.
Linus begins to start his journey to find the Great Pumpkin.
At Tenorman's fortress...
Ginger Girl: This ginger witch is gonna terrorize everyone! This is the perfect day of the year! Now this witch can kidnap Eric Cartman for our leader. Speaking of which, I heard that he's coming back tomorrow. I'm so ready to do this! Time to give those Space Tree freaks the scare of their lives!
She laughs evilly.
Back at the Space Tree, they are hosting a Halloween party in the party room.
Bessie: Best party ever!
Penny: You said it!
Jerry and Tuffy are holding a skeleton mask and they use it to scare Tom. He didn't notice it until he turned around and he screams in fear and runs into Spike.
Spike: Hey! Watch it, Cat!
Jerry and Tuffy laugh until Tom noticed them.Jerry throws a pumpkin pie at him and the two mice run away from the cat. Snoopy drinks a root beer and he laughs. Happy drinks it as well and the two dogs laugh together.
Strong Suit: Best Halloween Party ever!
Ace Savvy: Let's get some drinks!
They start drinking the punch Card Counter made.
Chance Sureshot: Colonel, you made the best Halloween party ever.
Toothpick Sally: Yeah. This turned out to be an amazing Halloween.
Colonel Rawls: Yeah. Nothing can go wrong with this party. (They heard zombie like moaning.) What the hell?!
It was Bessie, who was zombified with everyone at the party and they attack Rawls, Sureshot, Recap and Toothpick Sally.
Card Counter and General Disarray put their candy in the barracks.
Card Counter: This is the biggest load of candy we ever got.
General Disarray: Yeah. Let's head to the party before it ends.
Card Counter: Okay.
(Play Thriller by Michael Jackson for this section.)
General Disarray and Card Counter were walking down the hall when they heard zombie noises.
Card Counter: What the?
General Disarray: We should check it out.
Card Counter: Yeah...
They approached the now zombified Penny. At the 0:37 mark, they were scared and ran off. The duo then noticed more zombified version of everyone running towards them. Throughout the song, they ran around the Space Tree as they were being chased. And then, a zombified Lucy approached them.
Zombie Lucy: Brains...
General Disarray: What could've caused this?!
Card Counter: I think it was that experiment we made.
General Disarray: We need to head back to the lab and fix all of this!
Card Counter: But first, we need to find a way to lose them.
As they start running, a man starts talking in the background.
Man: Darkness falls across the land. The midnight hour is close at hand. Creatures crawl in search of blood, and whosoever shall be found. Without the soul for getting down. Must stand and face the hounds of hell, and rot inside a corpse's shell.
The duo stopped and noticed all the zombified people approaching them. The zombified honeybee scouts slowly approach them as the zombified Freedom Pals attempted to grab them. They all approach them slowly.
Zombie Towelie: Give us your brains...
General Disarray: We may have to thriller dance with them. And with perfect time, we can escape.
Card Counter: How are we gonna do that?!
General Disarray: (Pulls out Bessie's Zune) With this Zune, we can play a Halloween song and they can dance to it, and while they're distracted by the song, we can head to the lab and turn them back to normal.
Card Counter: Okay. Let's do it!
(Play the Thriller Dance video for this part.)
He turns on Thriller dance music and they start dancing with the zombies. They take four steps forward when the music turns into a 1-2-3-4 beat. They started with their right feet first. Then, took four steps back with their right feet first and repeated. and then nod their heads to one side 4 times. They then turn to the side and put their arms out and then put their hands into claw-like forms. They then went down with their whole bodies four times. Afterwards, they clap their hands over their heads, and bring them down slowly and drag their feet to one side. They then shrug their shoulders and turn turn heads to the side. And then they repeated the move in the other direction. Afterwards, they eight counts walking slowly and creepily to a new spot. And they did the most popular part of the dance, and while they continued dancing, the duo ran off as the zombies continued dancing. They they ran into the lab to start working on the cure.
General Disarray: Okay. Let's work on this quickly while they're distracted by the music.
Card Counter: Okay.
They began working on the cure when someone came in.
Recap Robot: I'm not one of them. It's impossible for them to infect me.
Card Counter: Okay. Will you help us?
Recap Robot: Sure. Now let's hurry before they break in here.
They start to work on the cure of the zombie virus. The song ends when they finally finished the cure. They ran out the lap and splashed the cure all over them and they are all turned back to normal.
Bessie: Oh... My head...
Professor Chaos: What happened...
Card Counter: We'll explain later. For now, let's continue the party.
Charlie Brown: Good idea.
Eight of Spades: I can't believe I was a zombie. Wicked.
(Play Monster Mash by Bobby Pickett and the Crypt-Kickers for this section.)
Back in Pumpkin Planet, Linus was journeying through the planet to prove that the Great Pumpkin existed. He walked through heavy rainstorms, snowstorms, swampy jungles. He then start to climb up the mountain to find the Great Pumpkin.
Linus: I can't give up. I must prove that the Great Pumpkin is real, and nobody's gonna tell me otherwise!
He then made it to the top of the mountain, where the Great Pumpkin is and the song ends. He then entered the cave and saw a bunch of toys and candy.
???: Who dares to enter my domain?!
Linus: It's me, Linus Van Pelt, your biggest believer.
The figure appeared out of the shadows and it was actually the Great Pumpkin. Linus couldn't believe it. He was actually seeing him face to face.
Great Pumpkin: What brings you to my planet, traveler from Earth?
Linus: I came here to prove to my friends that you're real, but they wouldn't believe me.
Great Pumpkin: Yeah. I get that. Nobody on Earth ever believed that I was real. Except you. You believed in me this whole time.
Linus: Yeah. Every Halloween, I started believing you were real and I stood in the pumpkin patch awaiting your arrival, but you never came. How come you never came?
Great Pumpkin: Well, there was a reason why I never came to Earth. The military would be all over me if I did come to your planet. But here's the question: how did you end up in Space?
Linus: A guy by the name of Scott Tenorman blasted me and my friends up here, and now we're millions of miles away from Earth. We live in a Space Tree and it's been our home since then. And I was wondering, would you like to come with me to the Space Tree so that my friends can see that you're real?
Great Pumpkin: No. I'm sorry, but they will all freak out if I do come. Plus, it's my duty to protect my people on this planet. If I was gone, my people would deal with dark sources.
Linus: Okay. I understand. But can I at least take a picture of you so I could show my friends that you're real?
Great Pumpkin: Sure. This planet has free Wi-Fi, just like Earth.
Linus: Yes! (He pulls out his phone and take the picture.) Looks like my friends are finally gonna be believers! Anyways, will I get a chance to see you again someday?
Great Pumpkin: Sure. Now you may leave.
Linus: Okay. Thanks Great Pumpkin! (He leaves the domain and then a cage falls on him.) What the?!
Ginger Witch: (Cackles Evilly) Time to terrorize the space tree!
She flies away and the Great Pumpkin was shocked.
Great Pumpkin: I gotta do something. But I'll put my planet in danger. Screw it. I gotta rally all of my people to save Linus.
Back at the Space Tree, they made it back to the party room when they noticed the Ginger Witch.
Ginger Witch: Well well well. Look who the cat dragged in.
Linus: Guys, help!
Lucy: Hey Blockhead! Why do you have my brother in a cage?!
Ginger Witch: The ones who created me ordered me to hunt down everybody in here and now, I'm gonna scare you all!
(Play The Witch by The Rattles for the rest of this section.)
They all engage into battle.
Colonel Rawls: We won't let this witch ruin our Halloween! Take her out!
Throughout the first half of the song, they battle the witch, but she overpowers them and attacks them all. Even Freedom Pals couldn't stop them. They continued get attacked by the Ginger Witch.
Ginger Witch: You will never beat me! I am unstoppable!
She laughs evilly until she was shot at. They then noticed a pumpkin army with the Great Pumpkin.
Great Pumpkin: My people, save the Earthlings before this witch kills them!
Pumpkin Person: Yes Sir!
For the rest of the song, they starts battling and weakening the witch. As soon as she is now powerless, the Space Tree crew start defeating the witch and she is defeated and the song ends.
Colonel Rawls: GET OUT OF MY SPACE TREE!
The witch was thrown out of the Space Tree and her whole body was frozen.
Linus approaches the Great Pumpkin.
Linus: Thanks for saving us.
Great Pumpkin: You're welcome.
VIolet: Wait, so you're the Great Pumpkin, and you were actually real?
Great Pumpkin: Yes I am.
Linus: Yes! What did I say?! The Great Pumpkin is real! (Singsong voice) I knew it! I knew it! I knew it all along! You fools just wouldn't listen, I was right and you were wrong!
Lucy: Okay! We get it!
Great Pumpkin: But unfortunately, I have to erase your memories of me and my people.
Linus: What?! But... My friends finally believe you're real. This means I came all the way to your planet for nothing.
Great Pumpkin: It's not all for nothing. You had the courage to believe in me all your life, and I'm happy and proud of you for being loyal to me. So you will not have your memory erased. Now to...
Sally: Wait. Before you erase our memories of you and your people, do you really give out toys to kids in Halloween?
Great Pumpkin: No. You are confusing me with Santa Claus. Anyways, time for you to forget we ever met.
He snaps his fingers and the screen turns white.
The next day, Linus wakes up.
Linus: Was it all a dream?
Charlie Brown: Hey Linus, Rawls says it's time for our next mission.
Linus: Okay. (He then noticed a present next to him. It says To: Linus, From: The Great Pumpkin. He opens it and it was a box full of Halloween candy. He then reads the note that says "Thanks for believing in me for all these years. From, The Great Pumpkin.") You're welcome. And I won't stop believing in you.
(Play Werewolves in London by Warren Zevon for the rest of this chapter.)
Linus leaves the barracks and then Pumpkin Planet watches the Space Tree.
Great Pumpkin: (Laughs) Happy Halloween Everyone!
Screen turns black and the credits roll.
