We may be able to compromise, if you’d be willing to sing Penny’s part to On the Rise.
What do you say?
[sings] Anyone with half a brain could spend his whole life howling in pain…
You just want me to be the girl, don’t you? Okay, whatever, I’ll do it.

[tries to do Penny’s voice] And you believe there’s good in everybody’s heart, keep it safe and sound. With hope you can do your part to turn a life around… [stops] Why aren’t you doing Penny? She’s more like you with the whole helping others thing.
Er… Hello Captain Hammer, you tool?
Nope. Can’t. Sorry, Brandon; I draw the line at the costume.

Yeah, that was close enough. I’ll take it.
What about singing just a tiny little bit? [sings] A maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan’s gotta do what a maaaaaaaaaaan’s gotta do!

And I think I’ve found my costume.
I’ll be going to the party as Billy, aka Dr. Horrible.
I’ll admit, it’s kind of an unconventional choice, but I kind of find myself relating to his struggle. After all, he only wanted to save the world, even if things didn’t quite work out the way he wanted. And really? Captain Hammer was a joke. Dr. Horrible clearly had the nobler intentions.
(Okay, Brandon. You may have been right.)
Now to find welding goggles on such short notice.
STAND BACK, EVERYONE! NOTHING HERE TO SEE!
JUST IMMINENT DANGER, IN THE MIDDLE OF IT, ME! YES! CAPTAIN BRAN IS HERE, HAIR BLOWING IN THE BREEZE! THE DAY NEEDS MY SAVING EXPERTISE!

Ah, Dr. Horrible. I should have known you’d be making an appearance at the party.
Pretty sure, yeah! I have a costume from a few years ago, so it might be a little small, but I think I can make it work!

Oh, I think you can.
That sounds… interesting. Sooo interesting.
We’ll see.
Seriously, it’s better than what I lead you to believe. Watch it.

I’m making it my goal to convince you.
