Hey CP!
I was just wondering

dress up as for Halloween.
Knowing it's a little early,

E-102 Stinkoman

{Says "CP" as "Cuh-Puh" and "E-102 Stinkoman" as "E-something-something-something Anime-man"}

COLOR PRINTER: {typing} Well, E-Stinko, Halloween is only 30 days away. But I don't have to worry: Me and Bitmap already have our costumes! I will be going as:

{Cut to a white background. CP appears, dressed up like an anime-style printer.}

COLOR PRINTER: {voice-over} Purinta, the japanese printer star! And Bitmap will be going as...

{Bitmap appears. He has a white sheet over his body with eyeholes. There is a red X in the top-left corner of his sheet.}

COLOR PRINTER: {voice-over} ...a red X.

{Cut back to the computer.}

COLOR PRINTER: {still typing} Man, I can't wait for Halloween!

{cut to a screen that says "30 days later..." Then cut to CP and Bitmap walking outside, in their costumes.}

COLOR PRINTER: 'Man, I can't believe Halloween's here already!

BITMAP: I know! I'm ready for candy!

{cuts to a door opening to reveal Color Printer and Bitmap.}

COLOR PRINTER: Hmm...doesn't this seem familar?

BITMAP: Nope!

{You can choose what treat to give them by dragging it onto them.}

Brand Name Candy Bar

COLOR PRINTER: Brand Name Candy Bar? That's a funny name for a chocolate bar.

BITMAP: Are you sure that's chocolate?

Caramel Crunchies

BITMAP: Blech! I hate caramel!

COLOR PRINTER: Don't you have any chocolate bars?

Peppermints

BITMAP: Okay, now what the crap is this?

COLOR PRINTER: We're not going to accept this. You hear me? We're not-{the door shuts}

Afterwards

{Cut to CP and Bitmap walking around again.}

BITMAP: Where to next?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: {dressed up as a Charmander, walks onscreen} Well, if it isn't Printerguy and Imagedude. What brings you here?

COLOR PRINTER: It's Halloween.

BITMAP: What are YOU supposed to be?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I'm a Car-mander! One of those Poké-thingies!

COLOR PRINTER: You mean Charmander? And Pokémon?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Wight, wight. Charmander. And I'm Homestar Runner.

COLOR PRINTER: Um...you are.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Not anymore! I'm Charman! {jogs offscreen}

BITMAP: Well, that was a waste of time.

COLOR PRINTER: Let's go see what's over there!

{Both of them walk offscreen. Cut to Bubs' Concession Stand, only it is covered in paper bats. The sign reads "BUBS' HAUNTED STAND".}

BUBS: {dressed up as a Time Soldier} Howdy, Print...guy!

COLOR PRINTER: Sigh. Hey, why are you dressed up as a Time Soldier?

BUBS: Number 4 gave it to me! You should see what they're dressing up as!

{Cut to the Time Soldiers' ship.}

TIME SOLDIER #4: {dressed as Kid Radd} Air guitar! Whoo! {plays invisible guitar}

{Cut back to the stand.}

COLOR PRINTER: Okay...

{Suddenly, the Blue-Las Alert sounds.}

BITMAP: {imitating a Cheat Commando} It's the Blue-Las Alert!

{The Cheat walks on screen, dressed as a Blue Laser Minion. The Blue-Las Alert sounds again.}

THE CHEAT: Meh! (Yeah!)

COLOR PRINTER: This is the weirdest Halloween ever.

{The screen fades to black. Cut to the night sky. The words "Click here to e-mail CP" are formed by stars.}
