Spooky Month 6 prediction: All That's Sweet Is Not Sugar

The episode will open with a seemingly normal night with the spookeez going to the candy club and Kevin getting annoyed as usual. However as he's about to usher them out they notice that a few people on the street are acting a little funny.

A similar situation happens with John, Jack and Rick at Gonuts, presumably with Rick quitting his latest job at some point.

The two groups try to navigate the situation as the "sugared up" townsfolk grow more dangerous along with shorter scenes of other characters dealing with the "outbreak".

One of the starring characters eventually ends up ingesting something sugar-laced and this results in a dedicated horror scene

The Candy Dealer is revealed to be responsible for the sugar-spiking relatively early into the episode, but it isn't until the last act that we see his real face or discover the true nature of the sugar (possibly an experimental chemical being tested by the dealer who's really a mad scientist).

The thugs who held Kevin at gunpoint in Unwanted Guest will act as the Candy Dealer's enforcers/bodyguards.

In the end the Dealer's own victims swarm him in a blind rage (Adding angst potential if Robert or John end up being involved in his death, that is, if he is related to them).

Personally, I don't think the Candy Dealer is directly working with the cult, but like the manufacturers of the happy fella dolls, is being accounted for by them in their plans (calling back to the OST cover that shows the cultists as the chess masters of all the other characters).

To be frank, I don't think we have enough information to speculate on the secret ending.

That's all I've got ,if you read this far you deserve to see this beautiful image I have dubbed "The Candy Derper", that I accidentally caught while trying to get the image at the top of the post.

Okay so I was thinking about your theory/idea thing for SM6, about one of the characters getting "infected" with the sugar high, and I remembered this one doodle Pelo made after TT released

And how Kevin's VA showed a photo of his recordings for Kevin in SM6

Note the bit towards the end where it looks like Kevin goes quiet, only for him to get really loud, like he's screaming a lot; it would fit a horror build-up scene following by him actually losing it

I can absolutely see Kevin being the one of the group to eat the spiked sugar and then attack the others

HOLY SHIT, YOU'RE A GENIUS! I always thought of the doodle as a joke but if Kevin is the one to get "sugared up" it would actually make perfect sense.

Initially I thought maybe John would be the one to get contaminated but that was mostly because of the theory that the Candy Dealer is his brother. Kevin is a way more likely candidate.

Come to think of it, there aren't any giant lollipop props in the candy club, so maybe CD spikes the town by starting his own store, which ends up being where Kevin gets contaminated and where he finds the giant lollipop.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

On a side note, I imagined the characters having some change to their eyes as a visual shorthand for them being "infected" with the "sugar high" but couldn't come up with what it would look like. But now, I think they might turn purple, like CD's eyes (I refuse to believe them looking like that is just shading).

Yeah, my thoughts kind of trailed of towards the end, but the main point was that it seems that the Candy Dealer's beef with the candy club goes back a long time.

I'm thinking about the Candy Dealer and "the sugar is a lie" graffiti behind the candy club. Who left that there? One idea I had was that it was a warning from a former employee for future workers and that CD's been trying to sabotage the store for Eyes knows how long. Another thought was that the dealer himself is a bitter former employee of the candy club, maybe not even the one Kevin works at, just the brand in general. After all his goons are Mexican and so is the candy club as a company.

I mean it's supposed to be a Portal reference but it could be something like that aswell

Also Candy Dealer 7 :>

He isn't aware of how intimidating he sounds and generally comes across, so he probably had to go through a lot of kids ( don't take that out of context) that he offered the sugar delivery before he met Skid and Pump.

A few months back I had a dream about a Spooky Month episode involving some sort of mutant newt/axolotl and the mad genetecits/vet who created it and asked someone to look after it but it got loose and starts multiplying.

Since then I've been thinking about what that episode's credits would look like and I think the mad scientist would be pressed against an aquarium glass while dipping in the mutant in the water as it goes after the other characters who are all different sea creatures.

Here are the ideas so far:

Patty-jellyfish (since they kind of look like a surgical cap)

Hatzgang-piranhas (I really like this one, after all they're little jerks that always stick together)

Rick-stone fish (look up a stone fish and tell it doesn't look like it's done with life)

Richard and Carmen-lobsters (because lobster is expensive)

Skid and Pump- little clown fish (since they're black,white and orange)

Mr. Wonder- octopus (this one's just sort of based on vibes)

John and/or Jack- sword fish (since sword fish have police-ish colors)

Frank-Snapping turtle (with a white shell to represent his van)

Lila-angel fish (because she's like a guardian angel)

Ignacio-hermit crab (because he's reclusive)

Candy Dealer-eel (since they're often depicted as slippery and shady)

Those are all the ones I've got for now, feel free to suggest more for the characters I haven't covered.

Edit 1:

Radford- cardinal/neon tetra (suggested by @crossover-enthusiast based on it's red and blue colors)

Kevin- prawn (they're known for cleaning)

Streber- vampire squid (can't believe I forgot this one)

Jaune- sting ray (because of her ponytail and color scheme)
