A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. . .
Episode I
A New Halloween
It is a period of civil war. Rebel Jedi Children, striking from their rooms in the far corner of the house, are beginning to win small victories over the Galactic Parental Empire. During a recent battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Parental Empire's ultimate weapon, the TIME OUT CHAIR, an armored punishment with enough power to destroy the fighting spirit of children everywhere. Pursued by her sinister parents, Young Skywalker races back to her room aboard her bicycle with training wheels, custodian of piles of candy that can save her people and restore freedom to Rebel Children everywhere. . .
Suddenly, Yoda and Young Skywalker are captured by creatures of the dark side, Darth Vader, a Stormtrooper, and another Jedi, Mary-Wan Taylori, who has turned her back on the Rebel cause and now works with Vader. How can they escape and return to hunting candy? The Stormtrooper, a shockingly bug-eyed Vader, and Taylori pose with their captives:
Skywalker and Yoda desperately attempt to fight their way out of a dire situation.
But they are once again betrayed by Mary-Wan Taylori, and Sykwalker is recaptured and flung into the dark night. A giant Raggedy Ann looks on in horror.
Vader flies Skywalker away in an early-model Empire spaceship.
Yoda wants to rescue Skywalker, but first he must deal with a disturbance in the force - snack crackers.
After snack time, Yoda speaks his mind to the Stormtooper, who is swayed by his reason and flying spittle
A temporary cease fire is negotiated, and the signatories to the peace accord pose together for a photo. Isn't Vader better-looking under that mask than you remembered? Of course we already knew that Stormtroopers are genetically perfected specimens. . .
Yoda, exhausted from the battle, succumbed to the inevitable nap.
As Halloween approaches, questions remain. How long with the Parental Empire allow peace? Can the Rebels control their volatile tempers? What is the fate of the dreaded TIME OUT CHAIR? Will Yoda and Skywalker enjoy the fruits of their holiday labor, or is this all just a ploy by the Dark Side to take the candy for themselves?
