==Transcript==

''{The toon opens in Marshmallow's Last Stand with Homestar Runner sitting across from Cardboard Marzipan.}''

'''HOMESTAR (CARDBOARD MARZIPAN):''' And they feed the ducks through a tube. Don't you think that's aweful?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Look, girl sitting across from me. I gotta level with you. I'ma go build a deck.

''{Homestar runs away from the table. He pops up from under the table to imitate Cardboard Marzipan}''

'''HOMESTAR (CARDBOARD MARZIPAN):''' I gots to find me a new man.

''{Cut to The King of Town eating something white in a bowl. Homestar pops up from under the table.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey King of Town! (King of Town spits out a remote control) I'm gonna build a deck!

''{Cut to The Cheat knitting in The Field. Homestar pops out from behind The Stick.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' The Cheat, I'm deckin' it out!

''{Cut to Homestar standing on Marzipan's couch. Pom-Pom is holding a camera and a boom mic is overhead.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I am the deckman! D-E-C-K-E-M-A-N!

''{Cut to Strong Sad lying in bed. Homestar pops out from under the covers.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh! Hi Strong Sad... Um... Not sure how I got in here... I'll just... go back the way I came.

''{Homestar dissapears under the covers.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' I have GOT to get my prescription changed!

''{"The Local Newspapes" appears with headline "No Hands On Deck}''

''{Cut to Homestar and Bubs in The Field. Homestar is wearing a tool belt and leaning against a stack of wood.}''

'''BUBS:''' Now what's all this about, Homestar?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What, you didn't know? Yeah, I'm building me a deck. Using Galvanized Nails. That's right, that's right. I said I'm using galvanized nails.

'''BUBS:''' Galvanized nails, eh? Sounds legit. We can chill out on it an drink melonade all summer long.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, Melonade! We haven't talked about that much lately! Maybe we can eat some (Homestar's head turns into the older animation style) Marshmallows (Homestar's head turns back to normal) too!

'''BUBS:''' And I like to dance! (beat plays and Bubs does a little dance) Well, I'll let you get back to work. I'll swing by later on with a sixer of Melonade!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Make it a seven-er

'''BUBS:''' Aroo-got it!

''{Cut to Coach Z's Locker Room.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Galvanized, you don't say?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, it's pretty legit. I was thinking about writing a musical about it too. Maybe call it, "My Good Great Deck". I'll probably get (?) to star in it.

'''COACH Z:''' What about me? I wanna be in your musical! I could be the orphan! (Coach Z changes hats and starts singing) Oh where is my mother, dee doo?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That's a good one, Coach. A really...really...good one. Well, I better get back to work if I'm gonna build a deck in this cartoon.

''{Homestar leaves}''

'''COACH Z:''' But what about my 4 Tony Awards?

''{Cut to Homestar sitting across from Cardboard Marzipan in Marshmallow's Last Stand}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Kapedia said vulcanized was the way to go. But I dang old knew better. Galvanized, galvanized, galvanized, that's what I always say!

'''CARDBOARD MARZIPAN:''' Homestar, are you using galvanized nails to hide the fact that you don't know how to build a deck?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'm gonna have to get back to you on that one... Peow! ... ahem... Let's try that again. Peow! (Homestar leaves)

''{Sequence illustrating Homestar building a deck}''

''{Cut to Bubs and Homestar standing on top of Bubs' Concession Stand}''

'''BUBS:''' Well, I'm impressed, Homestar. When you said you were building a deck, I figured it would end up being something stupid and terrible. You know, cause you were building it.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, me too!

'''BUBS:''' But I think I could get used to this!

''{Looks out over The Field which is now completely covered in wood}

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Here's to Galvanized nails, and Cardboard Females!

'''BUBS:''' I'll drink to that!
