Speaker: hello everyone and welcome to a path through time ah my name is dakota your pm your dm your gm and sitting to my left is somebody whose favorite evolution is Flareon.
Speaker: Yeah, I mean it would make sense considering I am a generally fire type lover. Bye. But, you know... May or may not be true. You'll never find out.
Speaker: And... sitting across from me is... Someone whose favorite Eeveelution is... sylvia
Speaker: Ugh.
Speaker: You picked the worst one. I know, I may have done that on purpose. Awww. Yes, Sylveon's so great with the bow and everything.
Speaker: it's It's so great! Ugh.
Speaker: It really just sounds like you're trying your hardest not to say gross. so Can you sound any more convincing? Definitely not. the Definitely not the worst evolution that's ever existed.
Speaker: I don't think Sylveon's that bad. it's the worst i any and It's pretty bad. It may be one of the most viable ones competitively, but...
Speaker: Still not entirely sure it needed to exist. Oh. I think the worst one for me is probably Leafeon, if I'm being honest. i think I think... That was the biggest letdown on Kalos I ever watched, to that design.
Speaker: Yeah. Besides Ash losing, that was the biggest letdown of that show. I bet. See, the problem is... Ash lost to that Sylveon too.
Speaker: For no good reason. I know, it makes no sense. A random act. Ugh, come on. All so that they could have the weird moment of Serena thinking some other girl is trying to hit on Ash.
Speaker: I have no idea what you guys are talking about. that Do I remember this? Watch the anime. I... That's... That's... Okay, that's like asking someone, yeah, just go watch One Piece real quick, you know.
Speaker: That's a lot. What? Which part of the anime is that? Funny enough, if you had a 25 hour stream, it would take a week. to catch up to One Piece. If you had a 24 -hour stream...
Speaker: Oh jeez. Yeah, boy. I mean, it's only like 150 episodes, that's all. What? cra One piece? Sure. No, no, no. For Kalos. Gen 5. I was going to say. I'm sorry. I was going to say, then grow to 1 ,000 easily.
Speaker: Yeah. Even if it's Gen 5. I don't know. I could probably knock down X, Y, and Z in like two days. Oh, geez. I've watched it in like two weeks before, but never two days.
Speaker: Yeah, you so you guys have probably noticed that Evelyn's not here. uh this well you can probably tell from our the title that this is our halloween episode o spooky stuff This is the boys only version.
Speaker: Exactly. So, Evelyn wasn't able to make it, but we wanted to get something out for Halloween, so it's the spooky episode, and this is what we're doing today. So this episode is going to take place One year before the events of PTT.
Speaker: That's so weird. I'm just saying 20 years before the events of Not to Scratch. Everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Exactly. 21 years before the events of Not a Scratch.
Speaker: So we are going to be starting... Oh actually, you know what? Jake? Almost, I almost forgot. VE. Because we didn't do the recap. We're not doing things in our normal flow. We need a random move.
Speaker: Oh yes, let us... Shadow sneak in. Alright, let a shadow sneak in. Perfect for Halloween. Alright. We are starting.
Speaker: In your guises junior year of high school. School was just... not let out because it's... What? uh October. school School was not just like that.
Speaker: actually real school still You know what's messed up about this version? Me and Bruce would not be hanging out right now. One year apart because Nicaru is what connected me to Sammy and Bruce Backman.
Speaker: Well, I don't let mean, to be fair... like it was more of just We were acquaintances instead of really friends. Because, like...
Speaker: We talk about maybe once every like week.
Speaker: I mean, we we still, we would be all together still. with the friend group. I just wasn't... Bruce just wasn't really like good friends with You're Walter yet?
Speaker: Mostly just there with Sammy. Yeah. Huh. But... I mean, hey. Hmm. that can be a little precursor to what comes later of Bruce ending up helping Walter light D and &T.
Speaker: I thought you meant to say lightest house. No. That doesn't come until later. Let the sparks between the two.
Speaker: So... What I'll say on that is school is letting out for the weekend. It is Friday afternoon. The cool, summer breeze Cool fall breeze. I gotta remember it's not summer anymore.
Speaker: The cool fall breeze hits your guy's face as you step outside. Bruce and Walter, you guys are together. Hikaru! I was unfortunately sick for this.
Speaker: And Sami had to go. stay go work late at the Pepperdine's Pizzeria right after school let out. so Unfortunately, just you two... are going to the Gale Beach pumpkin festival.
Speaker: world on the other side of town. You guys were planning on going as a group, but unfortunately only half of you were able to make it so as you guys head towards the other side of town.
Speaker: light Nice, light afternoon sun on your face. You guys cheer. Um... Let's not say the mayor. I don't know if it would be the mayor. Uh, you sure?
Speaker: Ah, fuck it. We don't have a mate. Wait, do we have a mayor for Gale Beach? I thought it was Kingiscon. A male king is calling. Oh, that was Professor Farnsworth. No, the male king has come with one of our teachers, wasn't it? Right, it was. Professor Farnsworth, your history teacher. Who was the um owl? I can't remember that. who was the o Was that the... um That was the principal? Principal Barbenheimer. We never did really did flush out a mayor, did we?
Speaker: Okay, so I'm going to say this is the mayor. Oh, what's a good old person Pokemon besides like Grandpa? Uhhhh... oh Uh, Mr. Mime?
Speaker: I hate the image of a Mr. Mime. Just playing straight out. I don't know what to do. Shiftry. I forget. Koffgeist? Actually no, wait, it should make sense here.
Speaker: Uh... see with It's just front door fish, obviously. No, no it's a Magikarp. Please make the Mayor Sure! Fuck it, let's do a Magikarp mayor.
Speaker: you guys as You're passing the town hall. You guys hear the elderly mayor magic harp. Oh, my you boys, please get your help and old man out.
Speaker: We have some trouble with the festival this year.
Speaker: Yeah, what's what's what's going on? Oh, we're getting the great big pumpkin ready. You know the record -setting pumpkin for the festival is gonna get carved into this nice magical decorative shape.
Speaker: For lack of... Better words. But - As I was going back to take a look at the great big pumpkin, go roll it out to where it needs to go. It's missing! The great pumpkin is gone!
Speaker: We have a pumpkin thief on our hands! And I need some help tracking them down! I thought the Great Pumpkin was just a myth. No, the Great Pumpkin is a part of our annual tradition here. Have you never been to one of our pumpkin festivals? I keep thinking of Charlie Brown. Jake got my reference. Yeah, I kept eating. Charlie Brown. so
Speaker: The idea for this actually came from when Jacob was at my place yesterday and accidentally turned on the Great Pumpkin, the Charlie Brown thing. So we're doing a grape pumpkin kind of thing.
Speaker: um Cool. I don't think we're the best for the job. I, um... Um... Silence you guys are perfect young whippersnappers you can do is just great. I need some help and I only have one lead The last person I saw with the pumpkin was like, oh.
Speaker: Oh, my memory's not great. It was a, uh... A black and white... bird i think it was a bird i don't know it was something black and white and furry maybe I don't know.
Speaker: It was back here in this, uh... Back here in the garden. Oh, I suppose it would be fun if it was a bird.
Speaker: yeah Come quick, come quick! He like gestures for you guys to follow him into the garden of the town hall. Okay. Please tell me he's like on a portable like fish tank.
Speaker: Hello. I love how we just don't have an answer for how fish exist in this world. I'm just getting fish legs from teen Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. That's all I think of. When I hear a fish talking on land.
Speaker: No, oh, wait, it's... it Could be like a... Chicken little. Where the the fish just has... he a helmet tank on his head on his head Oh, i was I was thinking of... ah oh Megamind, the fucking fish.
Speaker: Sidekick. what was his name all the same deal is an a um body They're in a bubble of water that just rolls around. Like Klaus from American Dad. Alright, we'll go with a combo of the mix. He's got he's in a fish tank, but it's like a car So it's got like four wheels and a tiny little motor Nice.
Speaker: So they've got a water go -kart. I'm thinking of the Spongebob cars now, those little boats. come quick come quick come to the garden And he gestures for you guys to follow him over into the garden.
Speaker: All right. i Guess we're doing this, Walter. i don't I don't think this is a good idea. um Nonsense and nonsense. This is a perfectly sound and reasonable idea.
Speaker: Now if you look over here, you'll notice our pumpkin patch I realized... The garden of the town hall is a weird place. for I wonder if any Pumpkaboos are sleeping in here.
Speaker: But as you see he gestures to a spot where a large pumpkin should be You see blinking dotted outlines where a big pumpkin would be. Surrounded there are many small normal pumpkins around there, but there's a big spot where the big great pumpkin is missing.
Speaker: It - It just disappeared and I don't know what happened to it.
Speaker: Shouldn't we um... contact an adult? I mean... I don't think those kids should be in the list. Oh, are you guys not adults? We're 17, sir.
Speaker: Nonsense, nonsense. You guys are adults. This seems like a perfectly reasonable thing for me to do.
Speaker: Ha! I mean, he is an elderly Magikarp mayor. Clearly he's going a little senile. Nonsense! You, Lucario, look a great yeah great fellow.
Speaker: He just feels like we're in evolved form. So he has glasses However, they're not on his face. As he started moving his cart, they fell off his face and started floating around him. No. Tank.
Speaker: It also has no lens in it. It's just the empty glasses.
Speaker: Would you please help an old man out and save the pumpkin festival?
Speaker: We can... Do our best, I suppose. Okay, great! I will leave you to it. I have other matters to attend to that are not pumpkin related, if you will excuse me.
Speaker: I expect it back here in like an hour. I'll see you guys later. Are you sure they're not pumpkin related matters? Whaaat?
Speaker: I can't hear you. I'm on the other side of the garden now. Dang, that guy's fast cart. That's it. Boy, you got an engine most motor in that thing.
Speaker: Okay. So you guys have been tasked with finding the Great Pumpkin that has gone missing and saving the Pumpkin Festival. Yeah. um It's the end.
Speaker: What? It's true.
Speaker: Walter won't have enthusiasm. This is this type of Walter.
Speaker: Okay, should we... Look for any yeah clues on them. bird that was spotted.
Speaker: I... I guess. Go ahead and roll investigation if you're looking for clues. this ah Unless only one of you is looking for clues, then yes, both of you have ruled for investigation.
Speaker: That's a 19 for me 19 Oh! Both not 19! Double 19. i almost want to roll a d i feel like walter the only way i explain this for this kind of walter is like he's just looking over your shoulder the entire time like clinging on you Because even Walter...
Speaker: Walter that's like present now is the kind of scared of ghost types so halloween season is his least favorite season That makes a lot of sense.
Speaker: Even though he's got elemental punches now. He can actually punch ghosts now. Not now. Oh yeah. Not currently, but... Current time. He's probably terrified there's a ghost in this pumpkin patch.
Speaker: sh So with a 19 you guys notice a couple things First of all, there is a tuft of black fur next to where Excuse me. Next to a where.
Speaker: the great big pumpkin should be. The second thing you guys notice is a large scuff mark that is leading from where the pumpkin is. out of the gate. and into the street.
Speaker: Seems like the puppet is either rolled or dragged out. Mmm. You're good at, uh... Following trails, right Walter?
Speaker: I wouldn't say great. i'm ah I think I'm okay. Well, I think we've got a trail to follow here
Speaker: All right. Um... so what do you want him to do like or since i try to sniff it
Speaker: How do you want to... How would you... What are you doing? but Eli, what what what ah did you have your mind for Walter to do? Like, ever since I've seen it, I try to pick take a trail of like the scent.
Speaker: Yeah, I mean we've got a visible trail for now. You can... Bye. maybe see if you can get a scent for if the trail the visible trail goes cold Yeah, I would be surprised if the Great Pumpkin has orbs. It's just a Gigantamax Pumpkaboo.
Speaker: That's sleeping.
Speaker: All right. Okay. Walter will just follow you until you want him to do something. Okay, we're we're gonna follow the trail then, I guess. Okay. As you guys follow the trail you see many people milling about.
Speaker: It seems to be a very busy day. As if... As if there's like a festival or something going on. Wow. You follow the scuff marks which is kind of difficult as you guys are weaving your way in and out of people.
Speaker: down the street. And as you guys are following it, is there anything you guys want to do? Or are you just going to continue following it until the trail ends? Um...
Speaker: Bruce hears like rattling noise behind him. He just sees Walter's legs shaking the entire time. with people getting in costumes and everything. that This is Walt's worst fear this year.
Speaker: Okay. so All right, so ah With that then, I guess we will... Follow the trail all the way down after a while The trail leads down the road and you come across to the post office.
Speaker: The great patch leads right into the front door of the post office. And... Yeah, you guys are at the post office. I'll let you guys do what you want here. Oh.
Speaker: okay i guess somebody's trying to spend a lot of money on postage to mail thee.
Speaker: grape pumpkin somewhere? It just... Sorry. Oh. Jake just put in our... All right. Co -host chat.
Speaker: Dead. GIF of Scooby -Doo riding on Jackie's shoulders as he's running away from something. Yeah, Walter and Bruce.
Speaker: And Walter's even a dog adjacent thing. Yeah. Yeah, yeah it's almost like that's why I got this reference. On this ear, he's just scared of Scooby.
Speaker: skis Oh. Okay. um I don't know. Maybe they're just... Gonna cut it up and sit it in pieces. Like they do in those horror movies.
Speaker: what's a movie that would not be good I just realized, did we even know a movie's a thing by this time? im Sure, why not? I can't keep track of what we decided what was present and what was not at these early stages.
Speaker: I kind of give it up. if If it... doesn't break the game, then I don't really care. Ooh, look, a hoverboard. A flying car. Okay, I said if it doesn't break the game.
Speaker: Speaking of breaking the game... they Introduce flying cars. Oh my god, is that the Tesla Roadster? Is that the bulky Tesla? Sorry, we were talking about the roadster before the recording started.
Speaker: So... Alright, well, I guess we better head on in and see if there's anyone in the post office who knows something. Okay. as you guys enter the post office you notice that there's like orange marks on the door frame of the post office and it seems like the post office doors quite heavily damaged.
Speaker: Yeah. I swear Walter wasn't here. I swear Walter hasn't been here.
Speaker: Bruce is just pushing Walter into... You caught me orange -handed.
Speaker: I like that one. also like um Should we go in here? Yes, bruce Bruce is just like pushing Walter. by theter like trying to keep it the the bosun. Yeah.
Speaker: It's like skid marks as Walter's like trying his best to keep his feet like stopping him, but he's getting pushed back Somehow. Somehow right now, Bruce is outpowering Walter just because how scared he is.
Speaker: Well, hold on doesn't Walter have advantage on door related checks Da - to break them. Oh no. Not yet. He doesn't. Oh yeah. not he doesn't Not yet. His grudge of doors hasn't started yet.
Speaker: Oh, yeah, that's true. Yeah, that doesn't happen for being this isn't an iron door. This isn't my backstory Yeah. He built this door in a cave!
Speaker: With a box of scraps!
Speaker: Oh, is that an Iron Man reference? Yes! Okay. Alright, you guys enter the post office. and The scuff marks continue up to the front desk where the scuff marks stop.
Speaker: At the front desk is a pulliper.
Speaker: A what? A Pelipper. Oh, okay. Classic. come Nice. No Emolga here yet. She hasn't been hired yet. Yep.

Speaker: It's like the DMV when I get my license. The pelipper looks at the forms like So is this your name? Is this some sort of strange language?

Speaker: Like he he knows that but he wants to be he wants to give him like I think this is good Customer service is good. to So Walter's just also not answering any of the questions?

Speaker: Of course. Okay. Sure. but Bruce would like to, uh... Like take just a blank piece of paper.
Speaker: Write down his suggestions and like sneakily dump it into the suggestions box ah Okay, okay. Go for it. Go ahead, roast sleight of hand.
Speaker: Little do we know, the suggestion box goes into a furnace.
Speaker: Don't give him any ideas. Now hold on a second.
Speaker: It'd be like the Mr. Burns from Simpson. Put your suggestion here and it just lights the fire. That's a 15. Alright, yeah, you managed to put it in the suggestions box without him noticing.
Speaker: cool and and as as it goes in you hear the buzz of the paper shredder it seems like sometimes was for shreder okay whatever Time to get out of here.
Speaker: Let's ah go to the address. Bit. Bit. Do we know where the address is? Yes, it is. a what I almost wanted to say whatever address Jake put down before, but that's that's his own address. Actually, did you make up an address or were you putting that as dedicated to be your address?
Speaker: Jake. Me? I didn't put an address, like, whatever address. I couldn't remember the actual name of, like, yeah if we gave a name to where it was. So I just said, this address where I live. It's like the question, where do you live? I live with my family. Would your family live with me? Where do you all live? In our house.
Speaker: if Yeah. ah So yeah, you guys just have a written down address, and this address leads to... the other side of town. That you guys are currently on so you guys cross the town once already you guys are going back over to where the festival list.
Speaker: Okay. So. Sure. Once again, on the way there, there are many people milling about. You see, you're pretty much following the scuff mark back exactly where you came from. And you find yourself at a house that is right across from the town hall.
Speaker: Of course.
Speaker: Because why not? It is a a large, elegant house. Seems like it is owned by somebody who has a decent bit of money. But not like um a mansion or anything. Just a nice house.
Speaker: Yeah, not like Flameback Residence. oh my gosh it's the greninjas we never got to that one time that we never got to see
Speaker: During the Blue's Clues arc. Yeah. Oh my god, that plot that plot hole is never going to get filled now. Because of the events of last episode. Oh my god. I just realized that.
Speaker: So I still had something planned for the Greninjas. oh do you have you guys i'll have to talk about it after so that's a whole thing to go down uh But...
Speaker: Um, yeah, so you guys are at the porch of a nice house. It's got stepping stones. Got a handrail up the porch. It's a nice house with a bit the door has a big nice knocker on it.
Speaker: I think we should not. Knock on the knocker. Walter wants to be playing. He just goes. knock knock and knock knock Knock knock.
Speaker: And Bruce Spacebums. A bit of time passes and you hear someone walk up to the door. they open the door and you see a shiny espion Answer.
Speaker: Oh, no. Oh ho!
Speaker: Oh boy. Hello? Can I help you? uh we're for the the great pumpkin the uh mayor said it went missing
Speaker: Go ahead. Head and roll perception. Per... Yeah, perception. I'll... I'll...
Speaker: That's 18. Now we'll go with your score. With an 18, you see her eyes narrow very briefly before gaining a...
Speaker: Happy to meet her. Oh, uh... Yeah, the Great Pumpkin! Um, the mayor offered it to me to carve up for him. As you see, I've got a big carving machine in the back and See, like, just as behind her.
Speaker: And you see the giant pumpkin stretching the walls of her house. and there's like some sort of metal machine beside of it Oh, okay, it's so hard.
Speaker: What kind of chainsaw massacre is this? yeah you wouldn't mind letting us watch you uh carve the pumpkin and then escorting the pumpkin over to the festival then, right?
Speaker: Sure, sure, yes. Yeah, coming in. If you wanna watch, I can show you how the machine works and everything. but Bruce, I, um... um I don't know. No, um...
Speaker: I have a good feeling about her. Walter will... not purposely but just out of fear activate his aura sense to get like a feel for her. Yeah, go back to the old gen... uh season one or two uh vibes check The ultimate edge.
Speaker: Go ahead and roll. teach 20 I guess. That would be... Dude, what do I roll with this? Is this a d20? Yeah, pretty sure. I think when we first implemented it, I had you write a note down that just said, like, RoboD20 or whatever.
Speaker: Or just put perception check, whatever you want to do. I don't know. 17. Yeah, 17 will do it. Uh... No. What is that? Good way to put that. she you she see this Does she have a...
Speaker: um' I don't know how to put it, but you can put it like, does she have... ulterior motives at inviting us in. This is before her evil arc of the mainline PTT series.
Speaker: oh so this is actually silver huh this is silver
Speaker: And she does seem to have... Some similar motives but ulterior motives is like... don't really know how to put that Does she have a bad vibe? or Bad vibe or good vibe?
Speaker: No! bad like she's not evil but she definitely seems to want to do things her own way Oh. What? Um... murky vibe?
Speaker: Like an unsure vibe. excuse Yeah, you shake the you shake the magic 8 -ball and it says, unsure, come back later. Ask again later. Um. Bruce, I'm unsure about this.
Speaker: I mean... That Magikarp, I know he's old. Oh please. It was very clear it was stolen.
Speaker: Yeah, true. Bye. Do you mind if we just start? Take the pumpkin back to the mayor and then you can carve it up.
Speaker: Or we could take you to the mayor. It's ready to carve right now. I just need to push this button over here and I get started. Do know what, uh...
Speaker: Like... design the town wanted. yeah it's Yeah. It's programmed into this machine here. Can I make some sort of... check to see if that's true.
Speaker: Like what the machine is actually set for? You can roll insight on her to see if she's telling the truth. Okay. That way for this to be a village, you know villain origin over the great pumpkin we're the ones who saw off this That's a 10.
Speaker: A 10, it could be. I mean... it's the bit The machine's big and fancy, you don't really know what it does. up You know what's funny? I'm pretty sure her car is the one he...
Speaker: Talk to Silver. when we did the whole investigation stuff. so yeah i think so it's funny that we're in with her now so you can We can actually keep this kind of... Similar canonically.
Speaker: pretty easily yeah like similar in that she doesn't actually know us to be fair it's it's hard to forget her but As, um...
Speaker: A Raiolu and a... Um, I just dropped the name for your Pokemon. Stay cool. so nicole yeah we can be a dime a dozen but shiny's hard to miss yeah Yeah, she's very unique.
Speaker: So she walks inside and just says for you guys to sit down on some chairs. if you want to watch you might want to wear these and she hands you both like aprons it's It has a pump pumpkin carving. It's going to get a bit messy.
Speaker: I'm out of character. I'm five bucks. These doors closed behind us as soon as we walk in Uh, she closes the door because that's what normal people do. They don't walk into their houses and leave their doors open.
Speaker: I thought there was going to be some creepy stuff like that.
Speaker: Well, I mean, she might psychically close the door, which Walter might find creepy. The door closes and you hear the door creep. creepily And all the lights go out! No, they - no, they don't.
Speaker: Yeah. She walks over the machine Was like are you guys ready?
Speaker: I guess? Hmm. P .O .V. The black orb was in the great pumpkin the whole time. Oh, geez.
Speaker: She pushes. Oh. the big red button on the carving machine and you see hundreds of different tiny knives Whirling around and slicing at the pumpkin Um, man question. Hold on, before anything.
Speaker: Have any of you seen Monsters you know monsters Inc? Yes. Do you know that scene where the trash compactor scene like the faces he makes? Yep.
Speaker: That's like him that's Walter right now
Speaker: Yeah. I can see it. You see the machine start to carve out the letter. V. as in victor And it's slowly carving out this letter V, but it's sure taking its time.
Speaker: Oh yeah!
Speaker: After the letter V is completed, you see the letter B. start to be carved out.
Speaker: And... Once it is finished, And he goes like, ding! And you see... The logo for Vulcanburg Bank. carved into this pumpkin.
Speaker: ah So she was already working at the bank, and what's she doing in Gale Beach? It's her vacation day. This is her summer home. Well, actually that is something I was trying to think of earlier I was like I was thinking the exact same thing. I was like, yeah, summer home or whatever.
Speaker: I'm so sure. Bank are really making that much?
Speaker: economy these days. I mean, she does own the bank. So... I guess, yeah. How do you guys like it? Vulcanburg Bank, it's my bank.
Speaker: Great for advertising. Shouldn't this have been about the um... A town, not your... Um, Lord Bell? Hmm. out. Nah, they'll survive.
Speaker: Besides, I can use a bit more business. Ever since the ah market crash, things have been going a bit downhill, so a little bit of marketing won't hurt anyone. Alright, can we take the pumpkin to the mayor now?
Speaker: Oh, yeah, sure, sure. Yeah, you guys can have it. Perfect. Thank you, Ria. Okay Walter, I might need a hand here. getting this out of here now.
Speaker: Are you sure? I... i um Don't worry, I've got a plan. Okay. Walter or like... Peace.
Speaker: like tiptoe over there and like He's like, don't squish it, don't squish it. As he tries to pick it up. The pumpkin feels quite firm. You cannot pick it up. I should have said this earlier, but this is like a 10 foot tall pumpkin.
Speaker: It's a huge pumpkin. Is it not hollowed out now that it's been carved? Cutting it, you have to hollow it out. Which makes them way lighter. But yeah, sure it's hollowed out and Wait, Bruce, get into Pumpkin. and We can make it a jack -o' -lantern.
Speaker: Yeah, and also we can always just roll it as well.
Speaker: um how do you even get this in here this is way too big for that door even at the post office A lot of pushing. What? I don't know. I wasn't here when they delivered it.
Speaker: I'm talking to the DM over here trying to get this BS out of here. I don't know They delivered it to my house just a couple hours ago, and now it's... Cheer. I don't know Palpers must have got it in here or something.
Speaker: Yep. Well, I guess we're just gonna push it back out the door. And if we take out a wall, that's not on us. Uh, sure. and you guys are able to push it out it's like cartoon logic, it squeezes through the door. What is it, rubber? Is the Great Pumpkin just rubber?
Speaker: No, the door is rubber. It just he had of pushes the door frame out of the way. And then it stops back. Silver had a premonition of door -related troubles in the future, and she decided to start rubber -proofing her. doors. Like, huh? Doors that can get rid of kinetic energy seem like very useful in the future.
Speaker: You guys manage to get it outside and you see the mayor is... sitting on the steps of the town hall. He... She is the great big pumpkin. She's like, oh my, the great pumpkin. You guys got it back.
Speaker: Wonderful! Now I can start carving it! Perfect. Let me just... Bruce is going to quickly spin it around to so that... The other side is facing... The mayor. um Wait, mayor the logo side or the blank side? So the the the logo side is facing us and the blank side is facing the mayor.
Speaker: Mayor, can I ask you for something? Well, look at it. It's perfect. What is it my boy? Do you have a blanket or like a tarp I could use? Or do you have anyone around?
Speaker: Not on me, as a fish I do not have need for such things. But maybe somebody in the town hall can provide for you.
Speaker: Oh, okay. waler Walter just let White walk over there and just ask for like a like a big blanket or something just so he can cover up the logo that was made.
Speaker: At the front desk of the town hall is a Pichu. It's not front door fish? Nope, it's a Pichu. What is it? Before the legend began.
Speaker: Shit. yeah the doorf fish at four Front is 17 -2, yeah. Ah, well maybe it should be Front Door Fish, because then I can make the joke that the fish people are running the government.
Speaker: No, too late. Keep it as Pichu. It's a P2. Too late for that. Hello there, how can I help you? Um. ah We are... We need like a...
Speaker: Big, um... Tarp. for the pumpkin carving do you have any like one or two of them Yeah, I have one of my blankets that I keep. For my lap, if you want. And she gives you like a one inch by one inch square blanket.
Speaker: Do you not have like any, um... things we can put around the pumpkin or, like, below it, so... we It would be... um Don't make a mess when we carve. Well, I do have one of my extra large blankets and she reaches over and gives you a two inch by two inch square blanket Great, now I got a pocket square.
Speaker: so Just return it back when your title's set. Thank you. Cheers. We might need to find someone else here. You can keep it, thanks.
Speaker: Oh, okay. Thank you. And she takes it back. Have a nice day. Do we um Bruce do we know any spider Pokemon that can maybe web it up? And we could just say it's cobwebs for Halloween theme.
Speaker: Ahem.
Speaker: That's a good idea. Are there any like... Uh... Sminderack, Arredos. Spideups. Are you going to tell us?
Speaker: Are you both inside the town hall?
Speaker: Yeah. Okay. Um, right. Yeah I guess so. Well, um should you or should you make sure the um mayor doesn't see the carvings yet? yeah Well, that's why I was asking, because as you look out the window of the town hall, you see the mayor start to roll the pumpkin towards the town hall, and you just hear, WHAT THE - What is this? The pumpkin's ruined!
Speaker: and Bruce will... Run out and be like don't don't don't worry. It's not ruined i You can carve the blank side and just cover up that side with like a tarp or something.
Speaker: It'll be fine. Mayor, may I give a suggestion? to fix it so it's not ruined? What? You have pumpkin glue on you? No, but what if we use spiderweb? And then just like it's the cobwebs for like Halloween.
Speaker: you know that'd make it even more festive Do spiders make pumpkin glue? No, but they make webs and we could just web up web over the cut area.
Speaker: Nonsense! It'll be very visible! We need orange! Something orange to cover this hideous mark! I mean, we can color the webs orange.
Speaker: And how will we do that? with this can of orange spray paint. yeah
Speaker: oh I mean, do we have a painter? Where's that painter Pokemon at? Do we have a painter Pokemon anywhere? Yes. ah It's true. We could get Brusher. yeah I was just thinking of that, yeah.
Speaker: Would we know him yet? You have not met Brusher. Action! I have a question. Just brush her and go to your guys' school? When you guys graduated she was a teenager.
Speaker: uh in the heist in the uh Oops. She actually might go to your school. True. She may be a grade younger than us. Yeah. she Well, I mean, to be fair she was.
Speaker: Shouldn't she have been in our graduating class? I think I made her younger than you guys when you guys met her in PTT, so I'm going to say she's like one or two grades younger than you.
Speaker: Probably that would still work for rusher and walter being in college together with ralph's mom in the future whatever So I'm going to say you know of... brush her as the smirkle in your school, but you're not ah friends with her.
Speaker: Yeah, but we probably know of her at least. Does Walter... if we have to split up to do this like one get a spider one get the painter what does walter not want to do find a scary spider i have to contact for someone new
Speaker: Well, I would... think we at least know of brusher because i would assume she's like school famous artist kind of person. Right.
Speaker: She's probably the one who doesn't really know. Oh, no. Do we have any a drama? Is there a school player -like um class? So like a drama drama school Drama class.
Speaker: if Are we trying to keep this canon to the story? Because if we are... Um, when you guys met Crusher, you guys did not know her name. All right.
Speaker: I mean, we don't have to keep it completely canon. I don't know. I mean, we could just say we know we know of the... they ah Isn't there that one pane of Pokemon? like a class younger than us?
Speaker: Yeah, like we can know of the person without actually knowing them. Also, we could have just forgot the name Yeah. We never see them again. Yes, we we did just...
Speaker: we We had this one interaction and I didn't see them for a year and a... like a year and a half being a senior Being a senior, you don't see the sophomore or junior much.
Speaker: Yeah, sure. so Okay, yeah, so you guys know of brusher as like that painter kid So you know of Brusher, and I'm gonna say one of your other... uh teammate teammates of She's a schoolmate last v and Euryodos? That's a spider, right?
Speaker: And there's a spider. What does Eredos look like? Eridus is the scary Halloweeny spider. oh please definitely an area do so do spider pokemon dress up as other spider pokemon for halloween Oh, this one, yeah. You got an Aridos dressed up as a Spydops for Halloween? Or like a Galvantula, yeah, just painted yellow.
Speaker: That's all that's happening. I rode for luck to see if they would walk by in the crowd. They did not with a three. Oof. Dang. Is there any spiders working in the town hall?
Speaker: um I mean, not that you know of. Hello. Very fortunate. Uh, Mayor, by the way, maybe be fine we um... We were told by this person, Silver, that little they they they had permission him from you to do this.
Speaker: I never commissioned shit! That is not on me! This pumpkin was stolen! We should probably get the cops then.
Speaker: um I'd rather not get the cops involved if that's alright. okay let me know our mayor has a um criminal background there's a criminal history on him I'm really not talking to them, actually. i mean Well, I'm guessing it's more of Mayor doesn't want to have... scandal happen with the great pumpkin?
Speaker: If there's police, then that means... There's news crews showing up being, oh, great pumpkin stolen before festival. oh it's Bad PR for the mayor.
Speaker: I don't know. Why don't we just shove the pumpkin? Up to a wall. and then have you new carve something new Nonsense! The ghost types will be able to see it still!
Speaker: Why don't we just put a big flame inside of it like a jack -o' -lantern? That would make it even more visible. Ow, the flame would block out the side that's blocked by a wall.
Speaker: That's not how fire works. No, with us it's too bright to look at. You don't want to look at it. I'm starting to lose hope in your guys' helpfulness.
Speaker: Oops. Do you happen to know... Yeah, do you happen to know of any spider Pokemon that could help us? oh Yes, I know. There's an erudite that goes to your guys' school, I'm pretty sure. That's such a weird thing for the - For the mayor to know. Oh, yes, my my convenient grandchild is an Aerodos.
Speaker: oh This is where I'm so glad I decided to stay wholesome this whole season. or when i first came on because this is a lot of energy not to Smack this thing.
Speaker: If you can't tell, kind of point this mayor in a very specific... Way. Oh my gosh.
Speaker: Mmm. Yep. Okay, I guess we can... Okay. so School. just let out.
Speaker: How do we find... to... Classmate -ish. people of ours. to get their help. training Oh, that's easy!
Speaker: there he pulls out a clipboard from behind him It's full of sagging wet paper. This is the addresses of all the school children in the region. Do you need their addresses?
Speaker: I'm thinking of knowing why you're not you don't want cops involved. What? These are cups? What about cups? Where? Okay. I don't see any cups. Okay. um is this going on patreon an actual episode real quick before i need to know This is our actual emphasis episode.
Speaker: Alright, cut what I'm about to say. I, okay. Sir, are you allowed 30 meters of by the school? No! Why? A bike.
Speaker: Okay, I can see why he doesn't. How is he mayor? it's It's impossible for this kind of thing to happen. I'm going to say that ah that this is near the end of his term and he was elected like four years ago.
Speaker: Oh my god. Maybe. I don't know Or he's just an incumbent. And... The... The things that he's done has made people look the other way for his...
Speaker: questionable trees no one questions the sweet old magic carp I'm too - I look too dumb for them to question me!
Speaker: Huh! Well... Do you want their addresses? Good. Bye. How badly do you want this fixed? Very badly.
Speaker: Walter will take um all of them. and he'll like grab the one with him and bruce and like when the When they walk away, he's crumbling the papers and throwing them away. They don't crumple, they squish.
Speaker: Okay, I just throw them in the trash. Okay, we get the addresses we need from them first. Also, college residents. Especially car residents. What are you doing with those papers?
Speaker: My papers! I spent years collecting that data! huh And bru Bruce is going to... Bye. Thanks. Good.
Speaker: Do I want to? i mean they They are sogging wet papers. They're probably not going to burn well anyways. Should we be scared, Bruce? Um... Should we be scared or high schoolers?
Speaker: Oh yeah, I definitely think of that.
Speaker: He's just an old man, sir. I'm sure he can speak English. I'm getting the old man Herman from Family Guy. Woo! Wow! jesus i just oh fuck i just gives remember in the beginning of this episode i was like oh yes you guys are the perfect people for this I just realized unintentionally that made this so much worse.
Speaker: This crossed the boundary. in Oof. Talk about true horror. yes this is your horror episode for today guys Oh.
Speaker: Okay, so you guys have the address of an area there, and on the piece of paper it says her name is Jenny.
Speaker: Okay. And we also have a brushers address. Uh... Yeah, it was on that paper too. You have a brusher's address. all Alright. Do we want to go talk to them together or?
Speaker: split up and go talk to them separately. Thank you guys. Split it up if you want No, that was Bruce asking Walter.
Speaker: so he's He's already like, you know, he's clinging on you by your back yeah he's me He's not leaving your side during this night.
Speaker: Okay, I guess we're going together. I guess but the the more important one here is the Ariados. Why did Kara have to be sick? We can do whatever we do every year and just...
Speaker: play music go get in front of the corn maze. so Maybe after we're done here, we can go visit Hikaru and...
Speaker: Not worry about trick or treating. I never really liked the crowds anyways. Peace. The address leaves you guys a couple blocks down. to a mediumly nice home. uh Yeah, really nice neighborhood. mediumly nice home.
Speaker: it is the house is decorated with lots of spider webs which seem to be real spider webs They're very nice. one You feel the claws of both the dick in.
Speaker: ye The door seems to be Very nice. It's got a knocker on it as well. It seems very destructible. Destructibles. Stop tempting him!
Speaker: No, this is Wholesome Walter, no! Yeah.
Speaker: Yep, that the good thing this is before Walter had his altercation with doors. Yes. The two people known for destroying doors together in front of a wooden door.
Speaker: What could go wrong? Bruce knocks on the knocker. not stop dark clock not Knock knock. Eventually, an Eriodos pokes its head out. Hello, how can I help you?
Speaker: You see and an image line of where Walter was. they see as He's gone now.
Speaker: yeah He has gotten scared off. the well We were looking for... one of our classmates we kind of have a problem with the great pumpkin for the pumpkin festival this year we were hoping we could Uh...
Speaker: Get her to... Fix it up with some webbing. Oh, you probably want to talk to my daughter then. Jenny! Get over here!
Speaker: And you hear a bunch of creepy scuttling coming from the other side of the house. Yes, father! What do you need? what Why is it the same voice?
Speaker: this Hello, Daddy! These people here need to talk to you. Yes. Oh my goodness. Okay, Father, I will do that.
Speaker: Hello people at the front door, what do you need? hi we We need some help with that the grape pumpkin for the festival. There was a... an accident with the carving and we were hoping you could provide us with some uh spider web to uh Fix it with...
Speaker: Okay.
Speaker: Ariados has joined the party. Correct! I am talking to the magical voice of the air. What do you guys need me to do? Alright. you just need to come to town hall and web up part of the the Great Pumpkin.
Speaker: Very well, I will web up everything you need me to. Goodbye, Father. I am joining this party now. I will be back shortly. If I do not make it home alive, tell my mother that I love her.
Speaker: Okay, daughter! Goodbye!
Speaker: That is the funniest voice for an R, you don't fucking imagine. I was thinking of one. I am so used to, like, the the Pokemon heroes. And, you know, Kui having an Aridos. That voice for Ariados?
Speaker: i was thinking like what's the voice that would scare walter the most oh yes intimidating intimidating and scary you see like ah It's like a rattle. you the The outline was gone, but you see like the trash can rolling like in circles as he's like jumped in there in In perfect Scooby Doo fashion.
Speaker: So are you actually in the trash can? Yes. The Ariado scuttles over and is like, Oh dear, my trash can seems to have fallen over! He picks the trash can up and you see a giant spidery head appear inside the trash can. What is this?
Speaker: There is a person in my trash can! Hello there, person! Somehow, even though Walter doesn't have Absolute Mover, he makes it Walter -sized, ends it on the trash can as he runs through it.
Speaker: He's just still dreaming. So... raing ah so that but Walter, this is this is our help. It's okay. He's gone.
Speaker: Okay, well. He's probably going back to the town hall or over to Brusher. We'll we'll find him. Okay. Where to next, friend?
Speaker: Yup. Well... I guess town hall and get that pumpkin revved up. Okay. to the pumpkin! I will follow you!
Speaker: Can I say something? When now we give the spiderweb explanation. The whole thing was like, oh no, they could see through it. No, they wouldn't with the Pokemon kind of webs they have here, how thick they are.
Speaker: They could make it perfectly like thick where you can't see through it. Guess we'll see. Uh -huh. Also, why'd you get the kid and not just the dad? His sweats would have been bigger.
Speaker: I don't know
Speaker: I'm close. Eh. Okay. so off to brushers place Uh... I guess that depends on where Walter is running off to. Yeah, that was gonna be my next question.
Speaker: Hold on, I'm gonna roll a die.
Speaker: Okay. That was a natural one. Oof. Oh, boy. He goes back to the area. Walter's running off too. Yeah, he gets the adverses mixed up and ends up back at the Ariados' place. now you just hear screaming throughout the town as he keeps opening doors it's like a ghost type and then it's like a dark type that's another and then it's like a galvantula He keeps getting scared by everything.
Speaker: He's not opening the door. He just keeps running in. He just keeps running into them. It's just like, he's not opening doors. He just keeps running into scary Pokemon. Oh, I thought you were kind saying he was just running around the town opening people's doors and everyone just so happened to be standing in front of him. The front door.
Speaker: Yes. No. Billy just keeps running into things that are scaring him. oh Yes, I like that. okay so let's dip over to walter real quick eventually you've run face first into the house of brushers house And you recognize the number on the house as the a address you memorized for Bursar's Place.
Speaker: o
Speaker: well ah um Walters does not want to talk with them. He's like I'm already here. yeah You're like slowly like...
Speaker: tiptoe up the door like creaking on the wooden steps like Um... Little knock on the door. Oh, looks like no one's home. He slowly walks away.
Speaker: you You gently knock once and the door flings open. b Blah, blah, blah! I am a spooky vampire! And you see a brusher in a vampire costume.
Speaker: God damn, another natural one. Wow, what are you rolling for? how scared How if he would be able to survive it? No, he's gone again.
Speaker: Well, there's gonna have a heart attack. Okay, I guess Walter's gone. So. o
Speaker: He's like, ahhh! yeah All right, all right. So back to Bruce, I guess. That didn't last long. All right, well, I guess we're going to go to town hall then.
Speaker: Uh... But Bruce is going to assume that Walter is going to make it okay to Crusher's house. Okay. So...
Speaker: Yeah, you manage to get back to the town hall with Jenny the Aeridos, and you find that Walter is already there. Without pressure. Uh... Hm?
Speaker: He's like hiding underneath the elm. What happened, Walter? he's like underneath the stairs like in the look the a little area between the stairs and like the ground where he's like hiding underneath he's like No, no, no.
Speaker: RAGGING!
Speaker: We're good.
Speaker: Reggie. Are you okay, Walter? No, no, no. don't want to be here. Why am I here? Uh... Just a little more water and then we can go visit Hikaru. How's that sound?
Speaker: no I'm fine here. You you do it. All right. Would you do it for a Walter snack? Yeah.
Speaker: Where do you get these snacks from?
Speaker: Don't worry about it. I've got a little luck. Got a little, like, biscuit. Remember? Bruce. God, I just imagine Bruce pulls out like a bundle of TNT Would you like a Walter snack?
Speaker: Yeah. It's just like, o it's a little Boca burger. It's like a, it's a Boca burger slider. Okay.
Speaker: for one Scoobies. From one wall to stack? I don't know. All right, how about two Walter snacks? Pulls out a second.

It is both filling in the VB and laying atop it However, the blanket is so big it covers the entire pumpkin.
Speaker: What? Wait, how? the The pumpkin's massive. There's not enough silk in a spider to do that.
Speaker: He just gave me an idea. And Jenny and Alexi guys are like... I have spun a great big web! Hi! Does this do it for you?
Speaker: I have over done it a little bit. I think so. Do you have some water? uh Walter, you have water, right?
Speaker: um I gave it to a car or to feel better. Jenny is eyeballing the magic herbs fish tank.
Speaker: Yeah, I'd pull out a like bottle, like a small -ish bottle of water. I wouldn't do that. It's salt water.
Speaker: The Aerial Ghost just drinks it anyway. It is Naxal water. No, much better. Oh, that's disgusting thinking about it, actually.
Speaker: I said it was not saltwater, but okay. you don't notice I know it's not salt water, but... of the fish tank water. Ugh. but oh i was No, she didn't drink the - Yeah. You just sent it in.
Speaker: The water bottle. The water bottle that Bruce brought out. No Bruce had a water bottle so inside I was gonna say, that's disgusting to drink a fish tank. Ew, no.
Speaker: No. Oh, that is much better. Thank you. Did I make the web too big and since you covered the whole pumpkin? Yeah, do you think we can like... Cut through.
Speaker: a part of it and just take the web off. Yes! I can cut it very well. and she like climbs on top of the pumpkin and slices it up to a more appropriate size.
Speaker: There, now it covers the pumpkin. Is it good? That is perfect. Thank you very much. Okay.
Speaker: and yeah Yeah, I think you can go home now. Okay. Thank you, friends. Shake hands. He walks up to Walter to shake hands. Oh this is like a statue.
Speaker: Okay. Well, tough crowd. Alright, see you guys later. Bye! And Jenny just scuttles off. Like a spider. It's kind of scary.
Speaker: What do you know? Wolves got arachnophobia like me. Oh. that We've been talking about spiders a lot on the show recently. We have. It's true.
Speaker: I apologize for anyone who has arachnophobia listening to the show.
Speaker: Okay. The mayor speaks up. Oh, very well. It covers the logo, but we need it to be orange. Just it's not orange enough!
Speaker: Where is it? I can't tell. I don't have my glasses on. You know, it is it is orange. Yeah, it's orange. Oh, very well then, very well. Table two, my boys. If it is indeed orange, like I said, I can't tell.

It is perfect for this well i know i can you Little do you know A little do you know, it's you got it from the gag store, so it doesn't spray, but when you open it up, there's an orange inside. It's like purple when you spray it. Oh, that's funny.
Speaker: Ugh. No, I... Well... No, it's not.
Speaker: Alright, so you're gonna spray down the blanket orange? Yeah. Okay. since you guys decided to go spray paint method you spray down the blanket and turns it orange it is not the exact color of the pumpkin but it's close enough like guests.
Speaker: that you might not notice it if you don't squint too hard or squint too hard or if you look at it the wrong way or maybe just look at it just right. I don't know. We've got like a 99 % chance. there. see it so it's actually pretty terrible Good thing that side's going to be up against the wall anyways.
Speaker: But the mayor looks at us like, oh, very well. I guess that's orange. Maybe... Good enough for me! Hope you don't upset that silver um That um...

Speaker: Oh, it's right over there.
Speaker: Um... good Do we need the machine? Not necessarily, but it's fancier. It's more fun!
Speaker: It might be easier to carve it by hand instead of getting the machine. oh you youngsters with your newfangled tools.
Speaker: What do you mean newfangled tools? You're the one trying to use a newfangled tool carving machine. I never used a machine to carve. The pumpkin making carver was... created back in the World War II.
