Hey Strong Bad,

Do you ever do TV commercials for
Monster Truck Shows? I think you
would be great for the voiceovers.

Your devoted fans,

Stan and Loretta

STRONG BAD: Aww...that's very sweet. {typing} Look Dan and Linda, Strong Bad doesn't sell out to anybody, man. No matter how monstrous their truck show may or may not be. Though I have done the occasional promo for the events we hold in Strong Badia. In fact, I think there's one coming up this...

{Cut to a monster-truck show promo-style segment. The words Strong Bad says appear on the screen}

STRONG BAD: {voiceover} SUNDAY SUNDAY SOMEDAY!

{Two tires cross the screen diagonally, with Strong Bad providing the "vroom" noises for them}

STRONG BAD: {voiceover}IT'S AWEXOME CROSS 98!

{Awexome Cross logo appears. Another tire appears and screeches away to cut to the Strong Badia national flag}

STRONG BAD: {voiceover} LIVE IN STRONGBADIA!

{Cut to The Cheat wearing a jumpsuit and waving. What Strong Bad describes shows up on screen as he describes it.}

STRONG BAD: {voiceover} THRILL! AS THE CHEAT ATTEMPTS TO JUMP THE TIRE OVER THE KOT EATING A CARDBOARD BOX COVERED IN SYRUP!

THE KING OF TOWN: This is some good cake!

{Cut to Strong Mad holding Marzipan's guitar over Homestar, who is wearing a helmet and knee pads.}

STRONG BAD: {voiceover} CHILL! AS STRONG MAD SMASHES MARZIPAN'S GUITAR OVER HOMESTAR'S HEAD!

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Let's do this like Brutus.

STRONG BAD: {voiceover} RECOIL IN HORROR!

{Cut to the Poopsmith tossing out multicolored smoke bombs}

STRONG BAD: AS THE POOPSMITH LIGHTS SOME SMOKE BOMBS! AND THEN? YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO BE THERE TO FIND OUT!

{The Poopsmith winks at the camera.}

STRONG BAD: ADULT ADMISSION IS STILL JUST FIVE DOLLARS! KIDS AND OLD PEOPLE {The Halloween Kids and the KOT appear on screen respectively crossed out} NOT ALLOWED WITHOUT A BUCKET OF FRIED CHICKEN FOR MEEEEE! {A bucket of KnF'nC chicken appears onscreen.} STICK AROUND AFTER THE SHOW FOR A FREE PERFORMANCE BY LIMOZEEN!

{Cut to a photo of Limozeen}

LIMOZEEN: {singing} I've got the heart of a lion and the wings of a bat, because it's midnite!

{Cut back to the Compy 386 and Strong Bad}

STRONG BAD: {singing} Heart of a lion, wings of some stuff, because it's something! {stops singing} Oh-ho man, I love that song! {typing} I can't wait for this sunday sunday someday.

{The Paper comes down}

Easter Eggs

Fun Facts

• The e-mail is signed 'Stan and Loretta', possibly a Monty Python reference (on the part of the sender). In the movie 'Life of Brian', Eric Idle plays a man named Stan who claims to be a woman named Loretta.

• "Toons! Games! I'm gonna check my eeeemail...." is a reference to all the Main Pages.

• The chicken bucket that says "KnF'nC" may be a reference to Guns 'n Roses' "Use Your Illusion" CD, in which a page in the liner notes says, "GnF'nR".

• The jumpsuit The Cheat is wearing is a reference to the jumpsuits famous daredevil Evel Knievel wore during his famous motorcycle jumps.

• The bottles of maple syrup around the cardboard box are designed similarly to those of Mrs. Butterworth's, a famous syrup brand.
