Forster pulled up next to the house where Gordon, and Mother Borg live, and opened the shuttle door. Kathy got out of the shuttle, while carrying her backpack behind her, and kept her scarf on while walking out.

"Are you sure, you guys don't want to stop by, and visit, Forster?" Kathy asked. "Wish we could, but we need to bring the pumpkin we got over to our apartment before it begins to rot," Forster answered. "But you, Gordon, and Mother Borg can visit us if you want." "Okay," Kathy said, and went to the house. Forster closed the shuttle door, and then drove out of the walkway, to get out of the East suburbs. Forster then drove to the North suburbs where he, and Ellie moved to.

Forster parked the shuttle in the driveway of a red house with a gray stone roof, and a yellow door. Forster placed the shuttle in the garage, then both of them got out, and brought the pumpkin inside. Forster, and Ellie then placed the pumpkin next to the the counter, once it was in the kitchen. "Glad that struggle is over with," Ellie said.

Forster entered the bedroom of the new house, and brought out the box that had the switches, and belt, then placed it on. Once Forster got his belt on, he equipped switch 08, and turned it on. "You might want to leave," Forster said. "It's going to get messy in here." Forster then placed his shin on the top of the pumpkin where the blade met the stem, and turned it on, while rotating the pumpkin. Forster took the saw part off of the pumpkin, while removing the stem part, and placed it on the counter.

"Well it's not much of a mess, but at least you made it easier to open it," Ellie commented. "Now all that's left to do is remove the guts, and seeds, then we can give it a face, and light a torch inside it." "I can take care of two of those things," Forster explained, and installed Switch 29, which was a scooping shovel. "You may need to get a trash bag for this." Ellie then pulled out a trash bag from the pantry, and Forster scooped out some of the pumpkin guts, and seeds to place in it. After a couple of seconds of scooping the pumpkin clean, Forster washed the giant scooping shovel, while Ellie placed the bag of seeds in the trash. "Now let's see if the skin of the pumpkin is thin enough to make a face," Ellie said, and pulled out a knife from the silverware drawer.

Ellie then used the knife to carve two large triangle eyes, an upside down obtuse triangle nose, and a semi-circle mouth. After making the face, Ellie placed a candle inside, while Forster finished cleaning it. "The pumpkin looks so cute now," Ellie said. "It's like a baby." "Well, let's hope it gets lightened up, because we're going to put it outside for everyone to see," Forster explained. "We can wait, until 7:00 P.M. to do it," Ellie said. "For now, let's go upstairs, and have some fun." "If it means placing my d*** in you again than okay," Forster said, then took off his belt, and placed it back in the box with the other switches.
