Eeek: Boy howdy, do I love Halloween. Hand me some more candy Squeak.
Squeak: What do you want? Tootsie Cheese? Cheese crunch? Cheese-n-ettes?
Eeek: Naw. Hand me some of those Cheesey Ruths and maybe a couple of Cheese Savers to chase ‘em.
Squeak: I don’t know. I’ve been eating a lot of candy the last couple of days. Do you think I should cut back?
Eeek: Cut back? Why? Have any of your teeth fallen out?
Squeak: Only a couple. Want another Cheese Burst?
Eeek: No that’s okay, I’ll take one of those other bags of -- what do you call them?
Squeak: Cheese’n’ M’s. They’re my favorite; but I’ll trade you three bags of Cheesey Ranchers and a two cheese breakers for my bag of Cheese’n’ M’s.
Eeek: No Way!! I’ll give you a fromage pop.
FX: Alarm clock ringing.
Eeek and Squeak together: (gasp) We’ve got to get to our show!!!
FX: Filing and rattling. Music up and under.

FX: Commotion, mice break in
Announcer: Hey you kids, where did you get those realistic mice costumes?

Announcer: Oh, I thought you were pretty short.
FX: Tape stripping off and mumbling
Eeek: That’s right Captain Trips. We’re that popular rodent comedy team of Eeek and Squeak, and we’re here to do our TV show. Hey, Squeak, grab the control panel and give me another one of those fromage pops.
Squeak: Right Eeek. (stuffing face). Okay, you’re on camera and we’re going live in Five, four, three, two, one…It’s magic time.
Eeek: (stuffing face) Just hand me another Tootsie Cheese.
