In colorful letters, the name of the show reads "TVO Kids reporter."

Alex, the TVO Kids reporter is around 7, has short blond hair and wears glasses.

He sits on a pumpkin orchard and says HI, EVERYBODY.
I WANT TO SHOW YOU
HOW I CARVE A JACK-O'-LANTERN.
I SPENT ALL SUMMER WORKING IN
THE GARDEN
TO GROW THESE PUMPKINS.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Surprised Emojis appear and say WOW!

Alex says THEY'RE ALL KIND OF SAD
AND SMALL,
BUT I THINK I'LL CHOOSE
THIS REALLY ORANGE ONE.
IS IT JUST ME,

At home, he gets ready to carve a pumpkin and says OR DID THIS PUMPKIN GET
A WHOLE LOT BIGGER?

A face with tears of joy Emoji appears.

Alex says EH, OH WELL.
I'M GONNA START CARVING
BY CUTTING OFF THE TOP
WITH THIS SUPER SAFE
PUMPKIN-CARVING KNIFE.
NOW THAT WE'VE GOT
THE TOP CUT OFF,
IT'S TIME FOR
MY FAVOURITE PART,
PULLING OUT THE PUMPKIN GUTS.
(SLIMY NOISES)

A wink Emoji appears.

Alex says I'VE BEEN WORKING SO HARD
ON MY MASTERPIECE.
JUST ADDING THE FINAL TOUCHES.
IT'S PERFECT!

He shows the carved face and says WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Now he sits on the stoop with lit up carved pumpkins around him and says WELL, WE'RE ALL SET.
EVERYONE, HAVE A SAFE
AND HAPPY HALLOWEEN.
