French Narrator: Halloween is no different under the waves. Pirates, skeletons, and sea monsters. [laughs evilly] Ohh, sorry. Everyone is having fun. Well, almost everyone. [Balloony is washing the dishes in the Krusty Krab kitchen. The door creaks open, and Balloony jumps in surprise]Balloony: Huh? Who's there? [door creaks open some more as Balloony goes back to washing some dishes. Turns around and three pieces of paper spelling out "boo" turn on the ordering turntable. Balloony speeds up the cleaning of the dishes until he finishes]Balloony: Okay, Mr. Pirie, the dishes are done, I'm leaving! [tries running out, but Mr. Pirie stops him in his tracks]Mr. Pirie: Hold on. Don't you want to hear my annual scary story?Balloony: No thank you, Mr. Pirie. Uhh, does it have monsters in it?Mr. Pirie: Aye, the worst monster of them all.Balloony: Uhh... no. [opens the door then turns around] Is it a true story?Mr. Pirie: True as the deep blue.Balloony: Okay, maybe just a little.Mr. Pirie: Have a seat, me boy. [runs while saying "hot, hot, hot when carrying the campfire" sits on a log. Mr. Pirie puts a campfire in the middle of them] Every year on Halloween night, a ghost descends on Bikini Bottom, in a pirate ship, just like this. [holds up a Krabby Patty] Only bigger!Balloony: Excuse me, did his ship look like a Krabby Patty?Mr. Pirie: Like I was saying, a ghost swoops down and starts stealing people's souls. [holds up a pickle]Balloony: Do souls look like pickles?Mr. Pirie: Aye, as a matter of fact, they do. And he puts them where you can never get them... in his soul bag. [drops the pickle into a bag that has the words "Krusty Krab" crossed out and the word "soul" written above it. Mr. Pirie laughs evilly as Coiny appears behind Balloony in a pirate suit]Coiny: I've come for your pickle. [Balloony jumps up screaming]Mr. Pirie: Ah, Scaredy Balloon gets easier to scare every year! [Coiny takes his costume off as Balloony, in a barrel, sees the pirate was Coiny]Balloony: Humph, Coiny!Mr. Pirie: Nothing like a good ghost story, eh, me boy? Hope you're not too scared to come to me party tonight, Balloony ScaredyBalloon! [laughs while walking out]Coiny: [walks up behind Balloony] Steal your soul. [Balloony jumps out of the Krusty Krab screaming and beings to walk home. As he is walking home, he sees a jack-o-lantern and then he walks up to a kid in a cowboy costume]Kid: Twick-ow-tweat! [Balloony screams and runs away. The kid's parents walk up next to their son]Mother: It's okay, son. That's just Balloony ScaredyBalloon. [Balloony is walking home until Miss. Bowman drives up and honks the horn, sending Balloony screaming and jumping to hold onto the street light]Miss. Bowman: Happy Halloween, ScaredyBalloon. [drives off laughing]Balloony: The name's Balloony. It's Balloony! [Cut later at his house, inside a pumpkin. Balloony and Cat are inside of it] I don't get it, Cat. Every Halloween, no matter how hard I try, everybody scares me.Cat: Meow.Balloony: [carves his pumpkin from the inside] Well, I'm sick of it. [Balloony comes out] No more ScaredyBalloon! [notices his pumpkin and screams while running into his closet]Flower: Balloony!Balloony: Cat, it's Flower! I'm going to scare him! It's my turn. [opens the door and tries to scare Flower] Boo! [Flower has some funny glasses on]Flower: Hiya, Balloony! [Balloony screams. Flower takes his glasses off] Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.Balloony: Why can't I be frightening for once? Where's my chance?Flower: Well, if you want to be scary, you got to need a good costume. [later, Balloony walks out of his closet with a big, white sheet on]Balloony: What do you think?Flower: Great! You're going as my trick-or-treat bag!Balloony: No, no! I'm a ghost!Flower: Uhh... something's missing. I know! [Flower runs inside Balloony's closet. A tree falls down but then gets sawed down by Flower. Flower comes out with a pair of clogs] Step into these babies, Hans. [Balloony steps into the clogs] Terrifying.Balloony: I don't know, Flower. [doorbell rings]Flower: Come on, Balloony. They're little kids! Little kids are easy to scare! [door opens]Kids: Trick-or-treat!Balloony: [jumps out and tries to scare the kids like he did Flower] Boo! [kids laugh]Kid #1: Look, it's the haunted mattress!Balloony: Okay, okay, here's your candy.Kid #1: No, please, that was enough of a treat, thank you. [kids walk away laughing]Balloony: I don't get it, Flower.Flower: Balloony, look at my new paper ghost! [Flower holds scissors in his right hand and has a puppet on his left hand] Oooh, scary.Balloony: That is it, Flower!Flower: What's it?Balloony: What's the difference between that ghost and me? [Flower concentrates]Flower: No, no, no wait. Don't tell me. [concentrates more] D-don't tell me. Don't tell me! Don't tell me! I can do this. Don't tell me! Don't tell me! Okay, tell me.Balloony: I have a balloon head and a real ghost has a round one. All we have to do is make my head round and boo, I'm scary! [Balloony is now sitting on a chair in his bathroom. Flower has goggles on]Flower: Okay, are you ready?Balloony: [shows paper ghost] Remember, like this. [Flower razors off Balloony's sides]Flower: Are you sure you want to do this?Balloony: Shave me down, make me round! [Flower razors off more and uses one piece to wipe off his sweat from his forehead]Flower: All right, let's get to it. [razors off more part. Later, Balloony is a round ghost]Balloony: What do you think?Flower: Perfect. Now that's scary! [Flower puts on his funny glasses] Let's go scare somebody. [Balloony runs down a street trying to scare people]Balloony: Oooh... I'm a ghost!Flower: Oooh... I don't know who I am! [man opens door]Balloony: Boo! I'm a ghost!Flower: Oooh, I'm a ghost's best friend! [both run off laughing]Man: Hey, don't you kids want your candy? [both jump behind some coral in the shape of a skeleton head]Flower: Oh, boy, that was something. Your costume really packs a punch.Balloony: Do you think?Flower: Oh, no question! You scared the barnacles off that guy!Balloony: Who should we scare next?Flower: There's a whole party just full of people down at the Krusty Krab and a ghost is going to show up uninvited. [kids laughing] Oh! Here comes someone now! [Balloony jumps out to scare the kids from earlier]Balloony: Boo! I'm a ghost! [Balloony & Flower run off laughing again]Kid #2: Wasn't that the Haunted Mattress?Kid #3: I guess he's been demoted to a haunted sleeping bag! [kids laugh.][Later, Mr. Pirie is bobbing for apples with his daughter Needy, who is dressed up as Frankenstein's bride. Mr. Pirie successfully bobs an apple, but accidentally swallows it. Mr. Pirie chokes on an apple]Needy: Oh, dad, you're embarrassing me again! [cries and runs off. Pirie spits out the apple which shoots past Coiny and Book, breaking a window off-screen in the process]Book: Howdy, Coiny, I mean, Ghost. Great party, huh?Coiny: What are you supposed to be?Book: Why, I'm a pet goldfish in a bowl!Coiny: I don't get it. [Balloony and Flower are on the roof of the Krusty Krab. Balloony is tied up with some rope which Flower will lower him in with. Balloony opens a door on the roof to peek through to look at the party]Flower: Are you ready, Balloony? [thumbs up from Balloony]Balloony: Okay, Flower, kill the lights![lights go off. As soon as this happens, everybody begins panicking and running around screaming. Balloony is lowered in appearing with a scary look. Flower begins talking through a megaphone to scare everyone. Mr. Pirie even hides in the apple barrel]Flower: Wa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! I am a ghost! Booga, booga, booga, booga! Give me your souls! [a jellyfish comes up behind Flower and zaps him in the butt.] Huh? [Flower stands there a few seconds. He screams and starts running around in circles] Ow! Ow!Balloony: Whoa! [flails around in and around, then dangles upside down, revealing his pants]Kid #3: [notices Balloony's pants] Hey, that's no ghost, that's Balloony!Book: Balloony?Coiny: Balloony. [everyone laughs]Balloony: [still dangling] Help! Help!Flower: [using megaphone] I am not Balloony. Those are my street clothes! [thunder appears and the front doors are open]Ghost: Enough! [Everyone gasps as green smoke comes into the Krusty Krab. A green figure appears, it turns out to be a ghost. He makes an evil laugh, making everyone scream in terror.]Mr. Pirie: It's the real Ghost! [he faints]Ghost: You bet your white lily livers I'm a ghost. And I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. I'm going to steal your souls. [everyone screams] Quiet! [breathes out flames to burn them] You had it coming, you little crybabies. Every year, people dress up like me. [Coiny takes his costume off and whistles nonchalantly] Turning a ghost name in a laughingstock. But that's not the reason I'm taking your souls. [pointing at Balloony, who is hanging upside down] No, this is the straw that broke the camel's back. Out of all the ghost costumes I've seen, yours is the most insulting.Balloony: Do you mean I'm not scary?Ghost: You? Scary?! [cackles, then cuts the rope holding Balloony, and he falls to the floor] Let me tell you about scary, kid. There's all kinds of scary things in the world. Spiders are scary, uhh, I'm scary. You... you're not scary. Okay, let's get this over with. [flies back to the partygoers to steal their souls and evilly laughs in their faces again which makes everyone scream in terror again, one fish even shaking his head begging for mercy]Book: Balloony!Ghost: First, I gotta get rid of this stupid costume. [removes Balloony's ghost costume...then stares at Balloony in horror. The Ghost flies out of the Krusty Krab screaming. Balloony is now shown as skinless with just a brain, eyes, and a mouth with the lower half of his body]Balloony: Hey, what do you know? I scared him! [laughs. Everyone else, except Flower and himself, runs out screaming] It worked, Flower. I scared everybody!Flower: Yeah, I guess it was your pink hat.Balloony: Pink hat? Oh, that's not a hat. That's my brain.Flower: Ohh... [he runs away screaming. fade to black]Balloony: [off-screen] Don't worry, it grows back!
