"...and that's when I tampered with the DNA evidence!"

In six consecutive Strong Bad Emails, characters have referred to DNA evidence. All such cases have occurred in places where no context could be discerned. But there may be an explanation, as in strong badathlon, it has been tampered with. In the next email, it reveals who tampered with it. Next, it dissappears, followed by someone asking if they've found it. Finally, it appears as if they have either found it, or may find it soon. However, in Email 170, it does not seem to be linked to the previous five. Summing it up would be that they are searching for tampered DNA Evidence.

Appearances

  • Debut: Email strong badathlonMarzipan believes the DNA evidence has been tampered with.
  • Email unnaturalStrong Bad reveals that he was the one who tampered with the DNA evidence.
  • Email the movies — A character in the movie says that when he returned, the DNA evidence was gone.
  • Email your funeralHomestar Runner comes home and Marzipan asks if he found the DNA evidence.
  • Email from work — Homestar Runner tells Pom Pom that he'll have the DNA evidence on his desk by 5:00.
  • Email rough copy — Homestar Runner sits on the couch, and flatly says "DNA evidence" after a pause and an exasperated sigh.
