Claudia:
YESSSS!

Is it already Halloween?

Herry: Why do you ask?

I thought i just heard a witch laughing.

Herry: I didn't hear anything.

Oh well can't wait till Halloween. It's going to be great this year.

Herry: Why's that?

Because of getting new costumes, decorating and scary movies.

Herry: Why?

Not why. Cool.

Herry: I know why it will be fun for me.

Why?

Herry: Because my parents and sister are coming to visit.

Why?

Herry: Not why. But can't wait.

Bruce: Did i hear that your parnets are coming over?

Not today Bruce. It won't be till Halloween week.

Bruce: Can't wait. They are one fun family to be around.

(group is having a late dinner in the kitchen)

Scooter: You guys hear that Claudia's been turning herself into a rabbit?
Erin: It's true - and I'll bet it's been a hair (or hare)-raising experience for her roommates.
Nora: They're probably the ones who turned her into a rabbit.
Beige: Wait, hold on, I thought they sent her back in time or something.
Storyteller: No, I heard she sent Bunsen back in time.
Nora: Oh, let's face it, it's business as usual for them.
Erin: Yeah, tomorrow they'll all probably be sprouting leeks out of their ears.
Scooter: And then they could audition for Marvin Suggs' All-Food Glee Club.
Beige: Or at least make a pot of vichyssoise.
Nora: Maybe, with some potatoes, and chives, and some cayenne powder and seafood...
Scooter: No, cayenne and seafood go in bouillabaisse.
Storyteller: Well, why'd you have to take it to Bouillabaisse? Sure, it's a nice little town in France, but I don't see why you'd have to take your cayenne and seafood all the way there...
Nora: I think leeks would go better in a quiche or something...
Erin: No, you don't want leaks in your quiche - the filling would ooze out all over the oven and make an unholy mess.

(conversation continues in the vein of groan-worthy cuisine jokes until Storyteller tells everyone that their dinner's getting cold)

 

[The Count]

Too true... Leaks are more for the Feast of St. Crispen... On September the 25th, when you must face the hour of your doom.
*Evil grin.

*Knocks on Room #22's door. Hello, is the lady of the house... *Finds Claudia's still a cuuute rabbit, though turning into her old self more and more. Hmm, imagine that. Bunsen being called "Bunnie" by a bunny.
Just wanted to hexpress my sheer delight and thank-yous for the drawing done up by my talented cyber-sister. Um, I'll just leave this box of bat's milk milk chocolates bought at the Penny Candyman Sweets Shoppe with Beaker for her then. Chin up Claudia... Just let your hare down and it'll be hare today, gone tomorrow.

*Exits whistling a creepy merry tune.

 

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia:
A witch? Oh, I'll show him.
*Raises her sleeves*

Bunsen:
Since when did you become so rebelious?

Claudia:
Erm, I take it back.

Bunsen:
A recommended action.

Claudia:
Hi Eddie!

Bunsen:
Hello!

Claudia:
Yah, funny isn't it?

Bunsen:
What a clever pun, Edward.
Erin made one not too long ago--or some other.

Claudia:
-_-

Bunsen:
Be nice and get the chocolate.

Claudia:
Thank you, Eddie!
*Gets it*
Yummeh...

 

[BEAR]

Big Bird: We're back!
Bryan: Hey, Big Bird! Didja have fun at the park?
Big Bird: Oh yeah! We played soccer.
Bryan: Cool! Hey, buddy, I have a little surprise for ya.
Big Bird: You do?
Bryan: Yep. Come on out here.
Big Bird: Oh boy, I wonder what it could be.
(Bryan leads him out the back way to the outside showing him the beautifully large and refurbished caveroom)
Big Bird: It's a...cave! (confused but still happy)
Snuffy: Well, I finally got all my stuff unpacked! (the big shaggy brown Snuffleupagus slowly emerges from the caveroom entrance)
Big Bird: (Lit up at the sight of his best friend) Snuffy?
Snuffy: (just as lit up) Hello, Bird!
Big Bird: What are you doing here?
Snuffy: Didn't you hear? I'm moving back to the Dorms with you!
Big Bird: Really? What a wonderful surprise!
Bryan: We've been working all day fixing up the old caveroom.
Big Bird: Thanks, Bryan! (To Snuffy) Welcome back, old pal!
Snuffy: Aww, thanks! Dohohoho!
(Big Bird and Snuffy hug)

 

[BEAR]

(In the Caveroom...)

(Big Bird is sitting with Radar the teddy bear in his nest which has been moved in for the night)
Big Bird: Thanks for letting me sleepover in Snuffy's caveroom tonight, Bryan. I hope my nest wasn't too heavy to move in here.
Bryan: Luckily we have plenty of friends to help out.
Big Bird: Yeah.
Bryan: You all comfortable, Snuffy?
Snuffy: (laying on his stomache over a king sized mattress, with a large blanket over his back) Oh yeah! This mattress is nice and fluffy.
Bryan: Good. Well, sweet dreams, you two. See you tomorrow.
Snuffy: Goodnight, Bryan.
Big Bird: Goodnight.

(Bryan leave the caveroom)

Big Bird: Goodnight, Snuffy.
Snuffy: 'Night, Bird.

(The two drift off to sleep...)

Bert: (Voice-over) Muppet Dorms were brought to you today by the number 2 and by the letter S. Night!

 

[BeakerSqueedom]

A blinding light comes into view. Metallic sounds break the silence as
two figures are looming over a poor soul.

Bunsen:
Excellent, pull him down!

Dr. Van Neuter:
Check!

Bunsen:
Stop squirming--I promise it won't hurt too much!

Dr. Van Neuter:
I love your hair but um that's not what matters right now.

Bunsen:
Actually, I rather like it too...but yes you are most certainly right.
We musn't be distracted with it's fluffiness.

Beaker:
Meemooooommmooooo!

Bunsen:
Don't worry, you'll go unconcious by the time you feel it
plunge into your solar plexus where you are liable to...

Well, let's not be too negative. Positivity makes miracles!

Dr. Van Neuter:
Yep! Let us explore anatomy at it's best!
It is always wonderful to do it on a live person except
for the fact they um...sort of...

Bunsen:
Go to muppet heaven?

Dr. Van Neuter:
Oh! Yes, that exactly!

Bunsen:
Silence, Beakie!

Beaker:
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPP!
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPP!
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPP!

Dr. Van Neuter:
Quiet! She'll hear you!

A young girl comes in the room looking awfully irritated and swoops
the victim into her arms, leaving an annoyed Bunsen/Van Neuter stumped.

Claudia:
Nice try.

Bunsen:
Hm.

Dr. Van Neuter:
That is so not cool.

Beaker:
*Kisses Claudia's hand*
MEEEEEE!

Claudia:
You're welcome, Beakie.

 

[The Count]

Honestly... What were they trying to accomplish?
UD: Send some business off to my boss?
Count: Your boss?
UD, nods knowingly.
Me: *Shiver. Yes, well, let's not call on him unless it's absolutely necessary.
UD: Like inviting him to this year's Halloween festivities?
Count: Ah-ha! Vhat fun I vill have counting all the trick-or-treaters and all the clever costumers!
Me: Yeah, like that. Anyway, you think Claudia's found the trap door in her room?
UD: A trap door? Pray tell, what dark and dreary dungeon does it lead to?
Me: Oh, it's just a trap door connecting her room with the one directly beneath it... The dorms' laundry room.
UD, disappointed: Oh... That... *Waves his clawed hand dismissively.
Count: So, vhere vill ve be lunching today?
Me: How's about we go off to Jull's Pizza Parlor, the one open here in town.
Count: Yes... And hopefully ve'll spot some lovely lightning as ve dine in their sheltered outside booths.
UD: Ah, now that's something that suits me just fine. Nothing like a little gloom while savoring one's last meal.
Me: Yeah, let's go before it starts really raining out on the streets. Hope Bryan's got things in line for that town project he mentioned.
*All leave Room #1 out to the pizza joint.

 

[BEAR]

Bryan: I hope you slept well in your newly rebuild caveroom, Snuffy. It's good to have you back with us.
Snuffy: Thanks, Bryan!
Bryan: We still have to post our whole room description now that we're all here, but we'll do that at a slightly later time. I need to head out to the theater. We have a matinee today. See ya later! (exits)
Big Bird: Well, what should we do today, Snuff?
Snuffy: We could play snuffletag!
Big Bird: How do you play that?
Snuffy: Like this...(tags Big Bird with his snuffle and starts to run) You're it!
Big Bird: (laughs and runs after him) I'm gonna get you!
(Ernie and Bert enter)
Ernie: Hey, that looks like fun!
Bert: Yeah...
Ernie: (Taps Bert's shoulder) You're it, Bert!
Bert: Awww...I'm always it!
Cookie: (left alone, taps a cookie sitting on a plate) Tag. (pause; he shrugs and grabs the cookie and eats it leaving a crumby mess)
