Transcript

{open to Strong Sad's room. Strong Sad is standing next to a chair and in front of a table with a notebook on it, and wearing his Deletehead hat. An archway to a hall is to his left}

STRONG SAD: {rhythmic clapping in background} Everybody's just gonna feel sorry for ya. I mean {starts to pat belly in time with clapping} I do.

{clapping stops}

STRONG SAD: Please be seatèd, delete heads. {chair scoot noises as Strong Sad sits} Now let's get right down to it! Sbemail 200 wagers, place ya bets! Place ya bets! {Strong Sad pounds the table with his fist as he speaks}

{cut to the other side of the table. Strong Mad and The Cheat are sitting down, and the cinder block is on the table. All three are wearing Deletehead hats}

THE CHEAT: {The Cheat noises}

STRONG SAD: The Cheat's got fifty bucks says the Lappy doesn't make it out of email 200 alive! Any takers? Any takers?

{cut back to opposite side}

STRONG MAD: DOUBLE DOWN!

STRONG SAD: Okay, hot money, hot money, big movers! {pounds table} Dan! We got a twenty percent chance this email's gonna be from a guy named Dan! Who wants in? {looks around quickly as he speaks} Anybody? Nobody? Hot action? Big numbers? No? Moving on! Homestar's got half a G on {looks at notebook} Strong Bad not making it out alive?

{cut to Homestar, holding a bundle of red candles with a drawing of a clock face taped to them, resembling a homemade bomb}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: {Homestar quickly hides his "bomb" under the table} I dunno nothing about nothing.

STRONG BAD: {standing in doorway, holding a crate labelled Last week's clams with a box labelled Cat noses on top of it} Do any of you have even one iota that lives down the street from a clue as to what you're talking about?

STRONG SAD: Uh, gambling?

THE CHEAT: {The Cheat noises}

STRONG MAD: HORSES!

STRONG BAD: Well I can tell you right now you're all way off! {walks away} Or I got fifty bucks that says you guys will continue to suck no matter what I do.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: {ominous music, Homestar pulls his homemade "bomb" out from under the table} We'll just see about that, old buddy, old pal. We'll just see. {zoom in on Homestar}

STRONG SAD: {music stops abruptly} Homestar, are those just candles with a drawing of a clock taped to them?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, um. Sorry guys, I gotta catch this invisible secret elevator. {Homestar slowly lowers himself below the table, stopping before his hat disappears} Boooooo.

STRONG SAD: How much you wanna bet he stays down there all week?

{The New Paper comes down, it reads Place your bets, people!}
