[growling]

It's that weird kid.
He's gotten away.



(Skillit)
'Trick for you
and a treat for you.'

Not just any
weird kid, I'm Skillit.

Prince of Shadowland.

(guard #1)
Prince of Shadowland?

He doesn't have any shadow.

[intense music]

Almost time, almost time,
planets and stars, cosmos align.

Sun goes down All Hallow's Eve.

Darkness gives power,
a spell to weave.

The time has come,
the light does hide.

Door to Shadowland open wide.

zap

'Come on shadow.'

I'm powerless without you.

Ha ha ha.

crackle crackle

Me and my shadow,
together again.

Did you bring the others?

Ha ha ha.

Excellent.

We'll take possession
of that mask once and for all.

And then we'll teach
Stanley Ipkiss a lesson

for putting the prince
of Shadowland in school.

'Yes, we'll have our revenge.'

'Tonight, on All Hallow's Eve.'

tiring tiring

Boo! Happy Halloween
from Edge City savings.

Stanley Ipkiss speaking.

[breathing heavily]

Uh, hell-hello?

(Skillit over phone)
'Happy Halloween, Stanley.'

'Will you be wearing
a mask, tonight?'

Who is this?

'How about a hint?'

'Four thousand years old?'

'But don't look a day over 12.'

'Keep up my youthful appearance
by stealing shadows.'

Skillit!

Where are you?

'Landfill Park.'

And I'm going to teach Edge City
all about true horror.

'Unless you let the Mask
come out and play.'

'Bye.'

No wait, Skillit!

Hello.

Oh my gosh.

Whoa, where's the fire?

Sorry, Charlie,
I'm in a hurry.

Oh, gonna get some
trick or treating in

before the annual Edge City
savings Halloween social, huh?

Party? I didn't forget.

Well, let's not forget it's your
turn to perform the ceremonial

Jack o'lantern carving.

knock knock

(both)
Trick or treat?

Okay.

I choose trick.

I dare you
to trick me! Go ahead!

Uh-ha, I thought so.

The woman is nefarious.

And you, you mister are not
gonna make Mrs. Peenman

bob for apples like you
did last Halloween, okay?

Because I need you
to go straight for Skillit.

You got it?
Straight for Skillit.

Ooh, that Skillit.

Escape from his correctional
facility, will he?

I'll show him what for.

But first..

What is it
with you brats?

I'm not a candy store.

Trick or treat?

[screaming]

Hmm, not too funny
for a clown.

[whirring]

Absolutely, to die for.

[laughing]

What? No candy?

- Scrooge.
- Why? You dirty low life.

Ka-ching! Jackpot.

Frozen goods preferred,

Trick or treat? Thank you,

[howling]

Skillit, you little garden
gnome, I know you are here.

[Skillit laughing]

Now, you come on
out here, stinker.

And we'll settle this
like any adult and child.

With a spanking.

I owe you.

Do you know how much
homework I've had to do?

Now now homework's
good for ya.

No pain, no gain. Pixie.

Say, got your shadow back.

That's not all I've brought you
from the Shadowland.

I want you
to meet some friends.

Mask. Mask.

(Skillit)
'This is Billy.'

Mask. Mask.

(Skillit)
'This is Attila.'

[rumbling]

(Skillit)
'And this is Milrum.'

Nifty costume. Can you
breathe in that thing?

[grunting]

(Skillit)
'Oh, that's no costume'

'he's a medieval wizard'

who once had a little
accident with a spell.

[grunting]

Oh sore throats? Think I've got
cough drops in here somewhere.

Oh, you don't
get it, do ya?

Each of my friends
once owned the mask.

Your mask. And now,
they want it back.

Hey, you're talking
about my face, kid.

None the less,
if your boys r-e-e-eally

want it
they're gonna have to..

He'd be a fine
eternal playmate.

Alright, no more,
Mr. Nice Exterminator.

thud

The Mask smashes monsters.

These zombies maybe as much fun
as a leech in your blood pudding

'but wearing the mask oughta
liven up the lucky winner.'

(Skillit)
Such a pity Stanley Ipkiss
and the mask

are about to part ways.

Forever.

[instrumental music]

(male narrator)
And now these messages.

And now back to the show.

(Stanley)
'Ouch! Leave the face alone.'

'Ugh! Wash your hands.'

Your breath is enough
to wake the undead.

Oh, right, sorry.

Party at the Coco Bongo?

Wait! No offense, fellas,
but I'm fighting with corpses

when I can be dancing
with babes.

Later.

[whirring]

Hey, zombie to Milo.

Keep the stubs off
the spats, eh?

That's what I like
about the Mask.

Always the wise guy.

Always looking for a party.

[instrumental music]

Must have mask, eh?

Ooh, and what a beaut it is.

mwah

Patte, es parde.

gulp

No I don't want
to go with patte!

That's what it tastes
like, pa-tte(potty).

Ain't that right, fright wig?

Yeah, it tastes like
animal droppings, alright.

Free food's the only reason
I came too.

Aah!

I'll club you senseless.

Whoa, baby, easy
with that bird, will ya?

Security, he went that way.

Yipes! That clown's a killer.
I need a disguise.

Fast.

I got one built in.

splat

Come on,
I want him arrested.

Ma'am, we're
not really cops.

Shut your pie hole
and find him.

Sheesh! Does everybody want
my head on a stake or what?

No!

Whoa ho ho!
Great costumes.

They even..

sniff sniff

...smell real.

Oh, yeah, I gotta hide.

[laughing]

- 'Watch it, bonehead.'
- Aye! That be my toe.

Oh, I never..

Excuse me.
Oh, pardon me.

Watch your back.

(male #1)
'I, uh, that's far enough,
partner.'

Don't hurt me!

Gee, Stanley, maybe you
should stick to the decaf.

I-I-I thought you
were something else.

(male #2)
'Schumaker!'

Yes, Mr. Bank President sir.

Mayor.

Mr. Ipkiss, is that you?

Fantastic get up, old boy.

We're lookin' forward
to your Jack-o'-lantern.

Well, it'll have to be great
to match up against last years.

When I carved the--

Yes, yes, Mt. Rushmore
in a pumpkin.

Fluffy job, Schumaker.

Well, thank you, sir.

You know, I saw my pumpkin
as an opportunity

to pay homage
to the great men of politics.

Such as your self, sir.

(Schumaker)
'In fact, you should be
carved sometime, sir.'

(Mayor)
'Me? No, you're too kind.'

Just a hint..

..the mayor's right side

is his good side.
Got that, Ipkiss?

(Stanley)
'Oh, boy, I stick around
for the pumpkin thing'

'so I keep my job
or get out'

'so I can avoid the ghoul gang
and stay alive.'

Mask.

I'm looking for the Mask.

Anyone seen
a green faced freak?

[screeching]

Don't you shove me, ugly.

I'm just lookin'
for somebody to smack.

Hey, you in there.

Have you seen the Mask?

It's a, Halloween, buddy.
Seen plenty of masks. Ha ha.

[clearing throat]

Attention, please.

Is this thing on?
Yeah?

(Mayor)
'Okay folks, the time has come
for the ceremonial'

Jack-o'-lantern carving

to be performed
by none other than

Edge City Bank's own
Stanley Ipkiss.

[crowd cheering]

No wonder we didn't spot him.

He's in his Ipkiss disguise.

Get him!

[intense music]

Stanley Lipshicks,
ladies and gentlemen.

That would be a Ipkiss,
yeah Your Mayorness, sir.

[grunting]

Here goes.

[instrumental music]

[whirring]

Are you done, Stanley?

It certainly looks that way.

[audience gasping]

Jack classic!

The traditional
Jack-o'-lantern.

Let's hear it
for Stanley Ipkiss.

Fluffy, fluffy.

That's fluffy?

[crowd cheering]

Speaking of curtains..

[grunting]

Easy! The suit isn't mine.

Stanley, hand over
the mask now.

Sorry, won't do it.

If you don't, you'll find
yourself a head shorter.

Okay, okay.

(Billy)
'Mask.'

(Skillit)
At last..

...I'll have
a real playmate.

A mask playmate.

Fight amongst yourselves, boys.

Tell me one thing, Skillit.

I, uh, really never had a chance
against your zombies, did I?

Nope. Well,
just one chance.

The incantation.

The incantation! How, uh,
how does that work anyway?

I, you know, just curious.

Simple.

If you make
them say it..

...instantly transported
back to the Shadowland.

- Say what?
- The incantation, fool.

It's mask backwards.

Brilliant, huh?

He he.
It's kinda lame actually.

So how do you say it? Kusam?

No, Ksa..

Ah, no you don't.
Almost had me.

Think you're pretty tricky,
don't ya?

But you're really just
a pain in the neck.

Least I can do
is return the favor.

See you in the next life, Stan.

But I gave you the mask!

zap

[instrumental music]

We'll be right back.

cling

So much for the old mask.

Now for a new mask.

Who is it gonna be, boys?

What?

sniff sniff

I don't have the mask,
I've got jack.

(Skillit)
'This is made out of pumpkin.
I've been tricked..'

...by Stanley Ipkiss.

(Skillit)
Going for the pumpkin.

(Skillit)
'The mask is in the pumpkin.'

'Get the pumpkin.'

Get him.
He knows the incantation.

I gotta get these ghouls
to say mask backwards.

Got that mask backwards.

(Stanley)
'Hey you there, tall,
dark and decomposin.'

Imma calling you out.

(Stanley)
'So draw on three.'

One, two..

[gunshot]

What happened to three?

Must be the new math,
Oh well, you got me, partner.

Hold your horses.

Just one more thing..

[grunting]

Ksam!

[pulsating]

Sure he was fast.

But dumb as a rock.

'If you're holding a sword
and love to pillage'

in a former life,
you're the next contestant on..

Ooh, I'm sorry,
that's incorrect.

The winning answer is..

...Ksam!

Thank you for playin'.
Mwah, buh-bye.

Rats!

Two strikes half pint.

[laughing]

Okay, your turn handsome.

Come on,
you know what to say?

And I'm sure if you
could talk you would say it.

Khaa, then comes the Z sound.

Then the big M.

That's it, whack him.

Well, I can see you're not
gonna say anything except..

[grunting]

So, I'll say it for you.

Ksam.

[pulsating]

Oh, please. The paid
entertainment is too slick.

Not fluffy enough.

Here, here, for the
traditional Ipkiss touch.

[crowd cheering]

Indeed.

The Ipkiss touch.

Where is Stanley, anyway?

[screeching]

Yourself.

Time to spelunk outta here.

Yodel lay hee hoo!

Why is it whenever
the lederhosen goes on

someone's always there
to see you?

thud

You're not spelunking
anywhere, Mask.

Oh, yeah? I've got
a party to attend, shorty.

We were evenly matched
in the fleshly world

but you're
in my domain now.

'Tough guy, huh?'

And you're no match for..

Super Mask.

thud thud thud

One moment, please.

gulp gulp gulp

Okay, ready.

Give it up, Mask.
You're my eternal slave now.

In that case, I have no choice
but to do this.

ffff

You're only as strong
as your shadow is, shorty.

No, I'll loose my powers.

No, not yet!

Not without the Mask!

'If I go, you go.'

'Don't fight it, Mask.'

We'll have fun in Shadowland

forever in a place
where homework doesn't exist.

Homework, huh?
That reminds me, junior.

It does now.

[Skillit screaming]

Let that be a lesson to you.
