Another little girl then excitedly says "A show?" as they all run off. Howie then says, "Some place where the food and fun are all there..." as a Chuck costume, specifically the 1982 articulated version, walks up to the Howie, and then takes off his derby hat, and then says, "Hang in there, Howie."
