So instead of the original cast, we've got Grian, Mumbo, Scar, Impulse, Skizz, and Gem, along with the MCSM characters (Jesse, Petra, Lukas, and Ivor).

The episode opens the exact same way as the og with the MCSM cast finding the invitation to the mansion and getting into the kitchen through the side window. But instead of CaptainSparklez and TorqueDawg its Jimmy and Grian. Jesse says something stupid, Grian is vaguely menacing, and Jimmy gets dispensered to death *insert joke about being the first one out in the Life Series*

Grian takes the MCSM cast to the dining hall to meet the rest of the Hermits, general Hermit-related shenanigans ensue for the rest of the ep, and the MCSM cast are even more confused than in the original version.

Ivor is endlessly annoyed by everyone except maybe Mumbo. Jesse and Lukas really like Scar until he says something extremely off-putting w/o even realising. Imp and Skizz are off in a corner, being suspicious. Everyone is mildly creeped out by Grian and Gem. And Petra just really wants to leave.

I'm thinking this is a Clue movie situation where there are multiple versions of the story, and each Hermit gets to be the killer in thiers. They all get their own version of the White Pumpkin and all have legitimate motivations for wanting the enchanted Flint and Steel (Poultry Man and Watcher stuff for Grian, etc., etc.). The reader would be able to tell pretty easily who the murderer is, so this is more of a comedy and less of an actual mystery like the original ep, dramatic irony, and all that.

Also, there's one where the White Pumpkin doesn't exist at all. All the deaths are entirely accidental and happen because of the Hermit's collective inability to keep their hands to themselves.
