In monster truck, Strong Mad was going to smash her over Homestar's head. Marzipan played Carol in a band with The Cheat (drums) and Strong Mad (bass) in the toon Cool Things. However, the sound Carol makes in the song "Cool Tapes" is much more like that of an electric guitar with distortion.

However, he ends up using one of them.
