| [[Image:mm ls.png|100px]] || '''[[Marshmallow's Last Stand]]''' || [[Strong Bad]] and [[Strong Mad]] steal the star from [[Homestar Runner]]'s shirt in order to force Homestar and [[Pom Pom]] to participate in a tag team wrestling match. This cartoon, which is the first ever full-length Homestar Runner toon made, now has been removed from the site for unknown reasons. It is included in [[Everything Else, Volume 2]].|| [[Mirror:marshmallow2.html|Watch the toon]] (mirror) [[Mirror:marshmallow2.swf|View the Flash file]] (mirror)

| [[Image:jumpingjackcontest.png|100px]] || '''[[A Jumping Jack Contest]]''' || Strong Bad, [[Strong Sad]], Homestar Runner, Pom Pom, and [[Bubs]] enter a jumping jack contest. The person who continually jumps jacks for the longest wins. Strong Bad cheats, of course. Based loosely on the Homestar Runner book, it has since been taken off the site for unknown reasons. [[Strong Libs]] are available for play during the loading time.

| [[Image:Superbrave.jpg|100px]] || '''[[Super Brave!!]]''' || A [[homestarrunner.com]] update for February 21, 2003. It featured a class full of kids who had each drawn a picture of Homestar Runner. You could move the mouse over the kids and see Homestar-esque drawings of each of them that were eventually used for characters appearing during the karaoke songs on strongbad_email.exe DVD #2. On February 24, the update was renamed to "these kids rule". || [[Mirror:superbrave.swf|View the Flash file]] (mirror) [[Mirror:thesekidsrule.swf|View the Flash file]] (mirror)

Three messages from the members of Limozeen are provided. The recipient of the E-Card would be sent an email with the URL of the card that was prepared for them. Although the feature itself has been removed from the site, going to the URL will show the loading screen. The font used for "Loading..." is modeled after the [[Wikipedia:Iron Maiden (band)|Iron Maiden]] logo.

This secret page was designed to be discovered by people trying to find the [[flashback|100th]] [[Strong Bad Email]] before it was released. This originally occurred by typing <tt>homestarrunner.com/sbemail100.html</tt>, with the actual email eventually being located at <tt>homestarrunner.com/sbemailahundred.html</tt>. || [[HR:sbemail100|Watch the toon]] [[OldHR:100th_email.swf|View the Flash file]]

|-
| [[Image:oldmovie.png|100px]] || '''[[Kick the Can]]''' || This appears to be the very first Kick the Can short made and is found on its own separate page. During this toon, a countdown and some titles are shown, followed by [[The Homestar Runner]] kicking a can. His head pops off, and he kicks the can up into his body. His head lands on his body, and then his legs bend backwards. It's possible that this could have been on the website before all the other variations were made, and was probably linked to in [[Oldest Toons Menu]]. || [[OldHR:oldmovie.html|Watch the toon]] [[OldHR:oldmovie.swf|View the Flash File]]

|-
| [[Image:Needlepoint.png|100px]] || '''[[Needlepernt]]''' || A seemingly unfinished small cartoon of Homestar and Strong Bad on a sewn picture, possibly a reference to the one scene in [[property of ones]]. Its picture features Strong Bad standing in [[the Field]]. Homestar Runner walks up in the right, stops next to Strong Bad and opens his mouth. The text "Get Rid of a Few Things!" appears below. A similar scene briefly appears in [[From the Vault]].

It was later featured on the [[index page]]'s [[Index Page Messages#Old Crap Corner|Old Crap Corner]] on March 29, 2021. || [[HR:eggs|Watch the toon]] [[OldHR:eggs.swf|View the Flash file]]
|- bgcolor=#CCCCCC
! colspan=4 | Alternate versions of toons
|-
| [[Image:Secret Answering Machine.PNG|100px]] || '''Marzipan's Answering Machine''' || This is just [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 1.0]], possibly before more versions were planned. It has a few minor differences from the current version. The font is a little different for both the number and the back link, it doesn't have the archive menu, and the Back button links to the [[Scrolling Shooter Games Menu|Games Menu]]. || [[OldHR:answer.html|Watch the toon]] [[OldHR:answer.swf|View the Flash file]]
|-
| || '''[[The King of Town DVD Commentary#Secret Commentary|The King of Town DVD Secret Commentary]]''' || This is a secret version of [[The King of Town DVD Commentary|Strong Bad's Commentary]] for [[The King of Town DVD]] without any visuals. It is identical to the normal version except for the end, where it explains why Strong Bad did the commentary. || [[OldHR:sb_kingcomment.swf|View the Flash file]]
|-
| [[Image:KOTDvdOld.PNG|100px]] || '''Alternate [[The King of Town DVD Old Version]]''' || This is a slight variation of the [[The King of Town DVD Old Version|Old Version]] of [[The King of Town DVD]]. It does not contain a black border like the official Flash file, and lacks the "again" and "back" links at the end, as well as the Easter egg. When the animation is finished, the page directs to the King of Town DVD menu. || [[OldHR:kingoftown.swf|View the Flash File]]
|-
| [[Image:Yellodellowdeleted.png|100px]] || '''[[In Search of the Yello Dello Deleted Scenes#Secret Deleted Scene|Secret Yello Dello Deleted Scene]]''' || This is the scene from the [[In Search of the Yello Dello]] DVD where Strong Bad is talking with Marzipan, but it has a strange commentary at the beginning. Aside from not actually appearing on the deleted scenes menu, it differs from the other deleted scenes in several other ways, most notably that it's not really a "deleted" scene, as it is actually a scene from the toon itself. Additionally, its intro has a different font, background, and watch button from the others, and no title text. At the end, it fades to black and then loads the DVD menu, instead of providing "Back" and "Again" buttons as the others do. || [[OldHR:dellocut_2.html|Watch the toon]] [[OldHR:dellocut_2.swf|View the Flash file]]
|-
| [[Image:homestarloween.PNG|100px]] || '''Alternate [[Homestarloween Party]]''' || Aside from lacking the NavBar, this toon is identical to [[Homestarloween Party]]. || [[OldHR:halloween3.html|Watch the toon]]
|-
| || '''halloween2''' || This page appears to be related to [[Homestarloween Party]]. The following text is contained in the page source: <blockquote> ''Halloween Episode Written by Matt, Mike, and Craig Voices by Matt and Melissa Animation by Mike and Matt CORPORATE ROCK STILL SUCKS Homestar (Kurt Cobain) Strong sad (gorbachev) king of town (cap'n crunch) marzipan (jeanie) pom pom (stay-puft) coach z (flavor flav) bubs (rerun) poopsmith (tron) the cheat (garfield)'' </blockquote> || [[OldHR:halloween2.html|View the page]]
|-
| || '''radish3''' || A blank page that appears to be related to [[The Reddest Radish]]. The page source contains the word "[[contest]]" repeatedly. || [[OldHR:radish3.html|View the page]]
|-
| [[Image:sbemail46.PNG|100px]] || '''Old "[[your friends]]"''' || This is an alternate version of the email [[your friends]]. Differences: Strong Bad's mouth isn't visible in the reflection when he sings the email intro. The announcer on the TV [[Strong Mad]] is watching doesn't say "Some type of TV show." The background music stops at [[Strong Sad]]'s scene. Some extra buzz saw blades and a bottle of hot sauce behind Strong Bad are gone in [[Marzipan]]'s scene. The Cheat doesn't yell at Strong Bad, and Pom Pom does one less turn. Strong Bad isn't holding a bottle of hot sauce in [[Homsar]]'s scene. The [[font]] used in the Hot Fries packaging is Ashbury instead of Aurora BdCn BT. At the end, Strong Bad says the word "fans" a little differently. This version was accidentally made publicly available in place of the normal version following the [[Post-Flash Site Update]] before a Twitter user [https://x.com/StrongBadActual/status/1345077569629126662 pointed out the mistake in 2021].
|| [[OldHR:sbemail46.swf|View the Flash file]]
|-
| [[Image:Unfinished Interview.PNG|100px]] || '''Metro.pop Interview''' || An unfinished version of the short [[The Interview]]. Among other differences between it and the final, Strong Bad and Homestar talk without moving their mouths in the second half, Homestar doesn't take out his shopping list or his pen and notebook, Strong Sad doesn't say "En guarde?", and Strong Bad's last line is "Thank you for your time" as opposed to "Get out of my face". Once the cartoon is over, it repeats instead of having an ending screen like all the other Toons. || [[OldHR:interview2.html|Watch the toon]] [[OldHR:interview2.swf|View the Flash file]]

== Transcript ==

''{Marzipan walks through the field, which is sprinkled with leaves. A clock reading "8:13 pm" briefly rises from the bottom of the screen before disappearing; however, the sun is clearly still out. Strong Bad hides behind The Stick wearing a red witch's hat and mask.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{Half-singing}'' Doot da-doo, doo, lotsa leaves, doot da-doo hmm...

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Jumps out from behind The Stick}'' Grody bloody gross and blood!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{Bored}'' Eh, nice try, Strong Bad. I'm just not feeling it in broad daylight. And, you were hiding behind a twig.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, I know. Why isn't it dark yet?

''{Cut to Homestar, dressed as a newsboy and holding up a newspaper. As he says each line, he holds up a different newspaper with a front-page headline matching what he's saying.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Extrie, extrie! Read all about it! Halloween Night missing! Citizens mobilize to save holiday! In unrelated news, this newsboy get-up is not my Halloween costume!

''{Closeup of The Local Newspapes. It has a picture of two pumpkins, the headline reads, "Happy Hallow-Day!", and the subtitle reads, "These ARE the opening credits!"}''

''{Cut to Strong Bad's Basement. Strong Bad and The Cheat are on the couch. Strong Mad is standing behind it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Hits the newspaper he's holding}'' This is bull-talk! How are we supposed to scandalize and vandalize without the protective cover of Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha-Halloween night?

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{Questioning The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm gonna go interrogate the toilet for about eight minutes. See if he knows anything. After that, we'll form into a giant robotic Halloween Night-finding space panther! ''{Walks off. Strong Mad and The Cheat look confused. Strong Bad pops his head back in the frame.}'' Or not.

''{Cut to the field with Homestar, Pom Pom, and Strong Sad. The clock appears again and reads "11:18 pm".}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Halloween Niiiight! Come here, boy! ''{Whistles and brings out a chew toy that looks like a brain with a bolt and eyeball sticking out of it. He squeaks it while talking.}'' I got this spooky, yucky chew toy for ya! ''{Whistles}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Homestar, you are aware that Halloween Night is not a puppy, aren't you?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{In a laughing voice}'' Ye-heh-hes! ''{Whistles}'' Obviously! I am...! Aware...! That it is not...! What was that last part?

'''STRONG SAD:''' A puppy.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...A puppy!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, good. ''{A yellow glow appears in the upper left corner of the screen, and grows brighter as Strong Sad talks}'' But seriously, we have to find Halloween Night. ''{Eerie music plays.}'' I don't do so well with all this sunlight! ''{Strong Sad looks toward the menacing sunlight.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{while rapidly changing his position}'' Sit, Halloween Night, Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit sit-sit!

''{Strong Sad and Pom Pom slowly back away, then run off. Homestar whistles again.}''

''{Cut to Marzipan on a different part of the field. Marzipan is playing a reggae rhythm on Carol. Coach Z enters.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Hey, whatcha doing there, sista?

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{Stops playing}'' I'm trying to attract Halloween Night with music. ''{Starts playing again}'' It loves reggae, you know! ''{Stops playing}''

'''COACH Z:''' Good idear! And I can do some of my famous Halloween sound effects that everybody knows me for!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Coach Z, I don't think that's what everybody knows you for.

'''COACH Z:''' What are ya torkin' abort? Listen to this spooky owl! Hort! Hort hooort! Hort hort! Or get a load of these creepy crackets! Cracket! Cracket-dadadadadadada! ''{Marzipan starts playing again}'' Cracket-dadadadada!

'''MARZIPAN:''' We be jammin'! ''{Stops playing, with a vibra-slap sound}''

''{Cut to Bubs' Concession Stand. The clock appears for a moment reading "12:09 am" before disappearing. Music plays in the background}''

'''BUBS:''' What is wrong with you people? ''{Holds up a can of black spray paint}'' I got instant spray-on Halloween Night! ''{Sprays can, throws it behind him and holds up black opaque shades with orange frames}'' I got Halloween Night vision goggles! ''{throws glasses behind him and pulls out a "Hollerin' Jimmy's Hovercraft Kit". The words "Hollerin' Jimmy's" have been covered with a piece of masking tape with "Halloween Night" written on it}'' I even got this do-it-yourself Halloween Night hovercraft kit!

''{Cut through static to Spooky Woods with Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat. The trees are covered in yellow flowers.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Aw man, I thought sure we'd find Halloween Night in the spooky woods! This place has really gone uphill since it disappeared. Even that rotten old skull doesn't seem so creepy.

'''THE SKULL:''' ''{Rainbow afro sprouts from head}'' A-jam on it!

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Good thinkin' Monchhicheat! That guy's always hanging out with Halloween Night! But how do we find him?

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{Triumphant the Cheat noises}''

''{The Cheat pulls out a keyboard and plays the Goblin's organ jingle. The Goblin appears, wearing swim trunks and sunglasses.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What's this crap-take? Where's Halloween Night? Strong Mad, pat him down! ''{Strong Mad picks up The Goblin by his feet and shakes him. Several coins, a pencil, some lint, and a hamster ball fall out.}'' Aw, he's clean. I'm taking that hamster ball, though.

''{Cut to outside The King of Town's Castle with Strong Sad, Pom Pom, The King of Town, and The Poopsmith. The clock reads "2:38 am" before disappearing.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Cough it up, King of Town! We know you ate Halloween Night!

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' You amateurs! You don't know what you're talking about. I'm on a diet! ''{The Poopsmith nods his head}'' It's strictly Arbor Day and Earth Day for me this year! ''{The Poopsmith nods his head.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well now where do we look? I need some doom and gloom soon! ''{Starting to laugh}'' Something funny is happening to the sides of my mouth...! ''{The corners of his mouth wiggle and turn upward, creating weird noises.}''

''{Scene changes to Homestar, making a box trap at The Stick. The trap involves a trail of candies with orange and black wrappers leading to a cardboard box placed over The Stick.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Homestar Runner, you are a genius! ''{Turns around}'' Thank you, Doug. ''{Turns back around}'' So tell us what you're doing here. ''{Turns around}'' Well, it occurred to me that no Halloween Night could resist these orange and black flavored loose tooth remover candies. ''{Holds up and shakes two orange and black candies before dropping them.}''

'''COACH Z:''' How are they biting today, Homestar?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Sound Effects Man! Ooh-ooh! Do broken wheelchair. On cobblestone!

'''COACH Z:''' Wah-dlah! Wee-dlah! Wah-dlah! Wee-dlah! Wah-dlah! ''{Continues making sound effects during Homestar's next line.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' It's like I'm right there, wheeling Grandma through the old town. Do you want to stop in here and get a kielbasa, Grandma?

''{Cut to the field with Marzipan, Strong Sad and Pom Pom. Strong Mad, Strong Bad and The Cheat walk in. Strong Sad's mouth is still wiggling. The clock reads "5:42 am" and disappears.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{Laughing}'' Somebody shoot me.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Man, this sucks. Halloween Night's almost over and still no sign of Halloween Night. We should be out there turning treats right now!

''{Marzipan walks in.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh, you guys didn't have any luck either? Oh well, Happy Halloween anyways everybody. ''{The scene suddenly darkens.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! Say that again!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Say what? Happy Halloween? ''{The scene darkens some more.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Now somebody else say it!

'''COACH Z:''' Harrpy Harrlaw{{--}} ''{The scene gets brighter.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Covers Coach Z's face.}'' Not you, Coach Z. Now, everybody, all at the same time!

'''EVERYONE:''' ''{except Coach Z}'' HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

''{The words "HAPPY HALLOWEEN!" appear at the bottom of the screen. The scene darkens into night. Crickets can be heard.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh yes, it worked! I'm gonna egg so many candies and eat so much houses. I'm gonna{{--}}

''{A rooster crows and the sun abruptly comes up. Birds start singing.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' So, uh... what do we do now?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ummm...

'''EVERYONE:''' ''{except Coach Z}'' HAPPY DAY OF THE DEAD!

''{The words "HAPPY DAY OF THE DEAD!" appear at the bottom of the screen. Cut to the end screen, with a Mexican-style skull of Homestar, wearing a sombrero, while a reggae beat plays, ending with a vibraslap.}''

''{Cut to the final shot, where all of the characters stand in their costumes.}''

==Easter Eggs==
*As with other Halloween cartoons, click on the Poopsmith's head (after the King of Town says "this year") to see Homsar. (He will also appear in the end scene, but he doesn't have a separate Easter egg.)
:''{Homsar is standing beside a pile of newspapers similar to those Homestar is seen with during the toon intro. He is holding up one of the papers to display the headline "EGGS TREE! EGGS TREE!", and a tree growing eggs as fruit can be seen behind him.}''
:'''HOMSAR''': Eggs tree, eggs tree! This get-up ''is'' mah get down! ''{his head sinks into his neck, leaving an empty space}''
*At the end, click on Strong Bad:
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Sta-rong. Bad. That's the best Evil Carmen Sandiego costume I've ever seen!
:'''STRONG BAD:''' If I wasn't dressed up as a pretend priest-comedian, I'd beat the crap outta you right now.
*At the end, click on Marzipan:
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Marzipan, I just ''love'' your "I-have-a-caterpillar-crawling-across-my forehead" costume! And kind of a mustache... have... costume...
*At the end, click on The Cheat:
:'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, The Cheat, technically shouldn't all this sunlight be turning you into some sort of horrible beastie?
:'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{Covers eyes, The Cheat noises sounding similar to Gizmo's line "Bright lights! Bright lights!"}''
*At the end, click on Strong Sad:
:'''STRONG BAD:''' 'At's a good costume, Strong Sad. What is that, you at your twenty-year high school reunion?

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*[[Wikipedia:Kielbasa|Kielbasa]] is a type of Polish sausage.
*The [[Wikipedia:Day of the Dead|Day of the Dead]] is a celebration of the memory of deceased ancestors which is celebrated on November 1st and November 2nd in Mexico. Its art and themes also feature prominently in Frida Kahlo's work. It is also known as [[Wikipedia:All Saints Day|All Saints Day]] or All Hallows Day. The night before, All Hallows Eve, is the basis for the term Halloween.
===Trivia===
*The [[YouTube]] description for this toon is "What happened to Halloween night?"

===Remarks===
*If you view the Flash file in a Decompiler or use the Flash Seekbar bookmarklet, it reveals that the stack of newspapers on the Loading screen reads "[[News Articles|Eggs Tree! Eggs Tree!]]", which is the same newspaper Homsar holds up in his scene.
**When Homestar holds up the "In Unrelated News" newspaper, the stack next to him also reads "Eggs Tree! Eggs Tree!"
*Three different characters in this toon (Strong Bad, Strong Sad, and Homsar) play fictional characters of real comedians who were associated with ''[[Wikipedia:Saturday Night Live|Saturday Night Live]]''.
*Sunlight doesn't turn [[Wikipedia:Gremlins|Mogwai]] into gremlins; it kills them. Eating after midnight is what triggers the transformation.
*The sky is shown to be lit shortly after 5:42 AM on November 1. In the United States, [[Wikipedia:Sunrise|sunrise]] occurs later on that day, but in some locations twilight would have begun by that time.
*This is the first major Halloween special not to include [[opening credits]].
*Homestar's newsboy get-up includes a pair of suspenders, which may indicate the presence of pants.
*Homestar wears both a basketball jersey and a pair of suspenders in this cartoon, two items of clothing that cannot be worn without shoulders.
*Since Homsar’s “head moving down” animation is scripted to occur on his “mouth wide open” syllabic position, his head can be seen moving down for a few short frames on the “Mah” syllable before resetting.

===Goofs===
[[Image:Newspapesgoof.PNG|thumb|Man, newspaper editors have ''got'' to fix that printing machine!]]
[[Image:Hahahalloweengoof.PNG|thumb|Not even Coach Z's sleeve can resist those orange and black flavored loose tooth remover candies!]]
*When the opening credits newspaper appears, the picture is off the paper for three of the frames of spinning.
*On the opening credits newspaper, there is an extra space between "ARE" and "the" in the sub-headline "These ARE the opening credits"
*On the same page, a small piece of the pumpkin in the back is orange.
*When Coach Z first appears when Homestar is laying out candies, the second to last orange candy seems to disappear when it should only be partly obscured.
*In the scene where Coach Z is imitating a wheelchair, the candy Homestar dropped on the ground in the previous shot is still visible, now in mid-air, and appears on top of Coach Z's arm.
*Every time Coach Z's head changes direction, so do the tiny crescents in the pattern on his hat. This is most obvious during the wheelchair impression scene.
*After Homestar's close-up during Coach Z's wheelchair impression, the last candy in front of the box trap, a black one, has disappeared.

*The Halloween candies are out of scale; the ones in the back are bigger than the ones in the front.

===Glitches===
*At the end of the toon (if you clicked The Poopsmith to activate the Homsar egg), if you click on Strong Bad, Marzipan, The Cheat, or Strong Sad, Homsar still shows his scroll-over information while another character comments on their costume. This is because he is a movie clip that overlays the scene.

===Inside References===
*The scene at Bubs' Concession Stand follows the same format as Bubs's scenes in [[Senorial Day]].
*''[[Periodicals|The Local Newspapes]]'' was also the name of the newspaper Strong Bad was reading in the email [[candy product]]. This newspaper also appears in the [[Dangeresque (film series)|Dangeresque]] movies.
*Bubs's do-it-yourself Halloween Night hovercraft kit is a [[Hollerin' Jimmy's]] brand, which Bubs previously sold in the email [[lackey]].
*The way Homsar's head sinks into his body is similar to that of [[The Homestar Runner]] in one version of [[Kick the Can]].
*At the end, Homestar [[What are you supposed to be?|compares]] Strong Bad's costume to his [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats|2001]] Halloween costume, [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats Costumes#Strong Bad|Carmen Sandiego]].
*Strong Bad is seen holding a [[Smoking|cigarette]] at the end of the cartoon.
*Strong Mad shakes the Goblin, causing objects to fall. He previously did the same thing to Strong Bad in the email [[do over]], causing change to fall.
*This toon features [[eggs]].
*Orange and black-flavored candies were previously mentioned in [[Malloween Commercial]]. The candies in this toon previously appeared in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]].
*Eggs as fruit was mentioned in the email [[colonization]], where an old-English kind Homestar declared "Eggs not to be fruit".
*The page title and Strong Bad saying "Ha-Ha-Halloween night" is a reference to [[Bubs' Ha-Ha-Halloween Comedy Club]] in the 2004 Halloween cartoon, [[Halloween Fairstival]].
*The newspaper that says "These ARE the opening credits!" could be a reference to the shirt that Homestar wears that says "This '''is''' my costume!" in [[Malloween Commercial]].

===Real-World References===
*Strong Bad calling The Cheat a Monchhicheat is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Monchhichis|Monchhichis]].
*"Jam on it" is a reference to the song of the same name by [[Wikipedia:Newcleus|Newcleus]].
*Strong Bad's witch mask is identical to Lucy's from the [[Peanuts]] cartoon [[Wikipedia:It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown|It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown]].
*The ending screen with the picture of Homestar's skull is reminiscent of the artwork of [[Wikipedia:José Guadalupe Posada|José Guadalupe Posada]], who also made artwork regarding the Day of the Dead, and was a heavy influence on LucasArts' [[Wikipedia:Grim Fandango|Grim Fandango]].
*The description of this cartoon on the [[TV Time Toons Menu|Toons Menu]] reads: ''Ween night is M.I.A. Galang galang.'' [[Wikipedia:Galang (song)|"Galang"]] is a hit single by [[Wikipedia:XL Recordings|XL Recordings]] artist [[Wikipedia:M.I.A. (artist)|M.I.A.]]
*The line "We be jammin'" is referencing [[Wikipedia:Bob Marley|Bob Marley]]'s [[Wikipedia:Reggae|Reggae]] song "Jammin'".
*"Night Vision Goggles" are goggles that enhance the user's vision so as to be able to see better at night.
*When Homestar calls Coach Z "creepy sound-effects guy," Homestar may be referring to [[Wikipedia:Michael Winslow|Michael Winslow]], famous for his talents showcased in the [[Wikipedia:Police Academy (film)|Police Academy]] movies.

===Fast Forward===
*The loose tooth remover candies show up again in [[Haunted Photo Booth]].

==DVD Version==
*The Homsar Easter egg is enabled automatically.
*All of the ending Easter eggs play automatically. They are played in this order:
**Strong Bad
**Marzipan
**Strong Sad
**The Cheat
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.
*The video does not show who is dressed up as who at the end, unlike on the website.
*As the gang shouts, "Happy Halloween!", two mouse-like clicks are heard in the background.
*Instead of cutting to the group shot after the end title, it fades through black to the shot. During the fadeout, the teeth on the Homestar skull disappear.

=== Commentary Transcript ===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Mike Chapman]], [[Matt Chapman]], [[Ryan Sterritt]])

'''MATT:''' I'd like to welcome back Ryan Sterritt.

'''MIKE:''' What's up, Ry?

'''RYAN:''' How does it go?

'''MIKE:''' This is a cartoon that I'm pretty sure I haven't seen since the day we made it.

'''MATT:''' Nice. Look - Strong Bad's wearing Lucy van Pelt's witch{{--}} witch mask.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, I totally, uh, didn't remember that. It's a nice looking mask.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. Where do you think those suspenders s{{--}} attach at the bottom there?

'''MIKE:''' Where do you think they go in the ''top''? It looks like they just kind of go into his chin!

'''MATT:''' Maybe it's just like those tuxedo shirts.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' It's just all... it's a t-shirt, it's just got it printed on 'em.

'''RYAN:''' People still wear suspenders and belts at the same time. It just seems...

'''MATT:''' Yeah. I remember{{--}}

'''RYAN:''' ''{simultaneously}'' It seems{{--}}

'''MATT:''' The punk rock kids in school would do that, and you'd just be like, "Come on, like, if you're gonna do that, don't wear a belt."

'''RYAN:''' Yeah. I saw a guy at a wedding over the weekend. Uh, an older guy.

'''MATT:''' Mmm-hmm.

'''RYAN:''' An oldie. ''{Mike and Matt laugh}'' And he, uh, had suspenders and a belt. I didn't see the point.

'''MIKE:''' I always like it when I see people wearing suspenders that they're ''actually''... you can tell they're ''really'' holding their pants up.

'''RYAN:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Like if they didn't have the suspenders{{--}}

'''RYAN:''' It seems like it might be a second, uh, form of defense from your pants falling down.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' I think{{--}}

'''MATT:''' Yeah, go ahead.

'''MIKE:''' I was just going to say that I think Pom Pom as, uh, Mario Batali is one of, uh, my favorite costumes.

'''MATT:''' I just am amazed w{{--}} with both him being Walter Sobchak from ''Big Lebowski'' and this one, like, how much he ''really'' looks like the person. Like{{--}}

'''MIKE:''' How Pom Pom can look like a human?

'''MATT:''' Yeah. It's incredible. Like, more than just, like, "Oh, you can tell who he's supposed to be." It's like, no, no, no. He ''looks'' like Mario Batali.

'''MIKE:''' And, uh... this was{{--}} most people thought that most of the costumes were more obscure than usual.

'''RYAN:''' Really?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, it's{{--}}

'''RYAN:''' But it's like{{--}}

'''MATT:''' This Frida Kahlo is pretty...

'''RYAN:''' But that movie, had just{{--}}

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''RYAN:''' I don't know.

'''MATT:''' The kids don't{{--}} don't want to go see the Frida Kahlo movie, though, I suppose. ''{pause}'' Oh, I'm surprised we hadn't made Coach Z be Queen Latifah earlier.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' That was one I'm surprised we hadn't thought of.

'''MIKE:''' Umm{{--}}

'''MATT:''' He's wear{{--}} she{{--}} he's wearing her outfit from the "Ladies First" video, I believe. I think we found{{--}}

'''MIKE:''' That's right.

'''MATT:''' {{--}}found the video on YouTube and mimicked her weird African emissary... ''{Mike laughs}'' costume that was her theme for that album.

'''MIKE:''' Our friend, uh, was it Tyler that made a{{--}} a... CD of Halloween sound effects?

'''MATT:''' Oh, yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Where he was doing his own Halloween sound effects. ''{Ryan laughs}'' Something about bats. He's like, "A roooom of bats" and then he would just go... ''{Mike makes a sound effect of bats' wings flapping}''

''{pause}''

'''MATT:''' Oh, look at the creepy{{--}} the creepy forest!

'''RYAN:''' The lost{{--}} the spooky forest.

'''MATT:''' The Lost Forest. Oh, do it! How{{--}} ''{begins singing}'' do do doo, do do doo, do do do do doo, do do ''{Ryan joins in for a few notes}'' do do do, do do do dooo. ''{pause}'' Umm... ''{pause}'' Oh! That is not scary at all, Goblin. The Goblin was wearing a pair of Jams.

'''MIKE:''' Clearly. I think I had one pair of actual Jams, and then lots of Mom{{--}} Mom made us...

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' ...would just go buy, like, Hawaiian fabric at the fabric store and make us Jams, and...

'''MATT:''' Yep.

'''RYAN:''' ''Fleece'' Jams.

'''MIKE:''' I remember getting called out on it. "Those are not Jams, Chapman!"

'''MATT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' "Chapman!" ''{pause}'' I like that the King... has that half, uh... steering wheel. What do you c{{--}} Whatever you call that... boat steering wheel. Port{{--}} port{{--}} portmanteau?

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' Hey, it's Ed Grimley. Didn't you... dress up as Ed Grimley one time? Not ''for''...

'''MIKE:''' Not for Halloween, yeah. Just in{{--}} I think it was when we went on that, uh, vacation to Washington, D.C.

'''MATT:''' You dressed up as him on vacation?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, I think it was in a hotel room.

'''MATT:''' Good job!

'''RYAN:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Awesome.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

''{pause}''

'''MIKE:''' Looks like we didn't re-do those graphics from when we first made them in 2001.

'''MATT:''' Those caramels?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Or taffy, whatever it is. ''{pause}'' Umm.. I s'pose, uh, what's the Poopsm{{--}} the Poopsmith's costume, I guess, is pretty obscure.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. ''Wizards''.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. Necron 99, they call him.

'''MIKE:''' And Strong{{--}}

'''MATT:''' Tony{{--}} Tony Clifton and, uh... and... Father Guido Sarducci, I feel like, are both sort of in the same...

'''RYAN:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' ...both in the same era.

'''MIKE:''' If you know one, you know the other.

'''RYAN:''' ''{partially over Mike's previous line, but not synchronous}'' If you know one, you know the other.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''RYAN:''' I forget, people don't know The Maxx.

'''MIKE:''' I just saw The Maxx in one of those old video game magazines...

'''RYAN:''' Really?

'''MIKE:''' Uh...

'''MATT:''' Is there a Maxx game?

'''MIKE:''' No, they{{--}} I think they just had a little segment on, umm, ''Liquid Television'' or, like, MTV's animation.

'''MATT:''' Ah.

'''RYAN:''' Was it Image? Who put out that comic?

'''MATT:''' Yeah, I think that was one of the early Image ones. ''{pause}'' The McGuirk is a pretty inspired one. That's one of the more modern... costumes. Like...

'''RYAN:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' ...a lot of times it's not from something so recent. Not that ''Home Movies'' hasn't been off the air for...

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' ...a few years, but... ''{pause}'' I like this, umm, Homestar Day-of-the-Dead style.

'''MIKE:''' I like the bread and butter pickles song.

'''MATT:''' ''{singing}'' Got some bread and butter pickles. ''{pause}'' Umm...

'''RYAN:''' I liked Teen Wolf.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, that's a pretty{{--}} yeah... this{{--}} I liked this{{--}} I really enjoyed this batch of costumes. I didn't{{--}} They weren't supposed to be more obscure than any other time, but...

''{The three laugh as Homestar comments on Marzipan's costume}''

'''MATT:''' That's insensitive. An insensitive comment to women... with, uh...

'''RYAN:''' Unibrows?

'''MATT:''' ''{laughing}'' Unibrows. And peach fuzz... on their lip.

''{pause until Strong Sad begins to comment on The Cheat's costume}''

'''MATT:''' No! Technically it should be melting him, right? Doesn't sunlight ''kill'' the gremlins? Water and food turn them in{{--}}

'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' Oh, make them into... Spike.

In the first official installment of [[Strong Bad's Disk 4 of 12]], Strong Bad takes a look at the [[Floppy Disk Container#friendlyware|FriendlyWare]] PC Introductory Set.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' {{Film|Strong Bad}}, {{Film|D n' D Greg}}, {{Film|Sci-Fi Greg}}, {{Film|Open Source Greg}}, {{Film|Japanese Culture Greg}}, {{Film|Homestar Runner}}, {{Film|What's Her Face}}, {{Film|BASICA}}

'''Running Time:''' 14:00

'''Page Title:''' Turkey Farm Dreams!

== Transcript ==
''{A live-action case filled with 5 inch floppies sits on a desk next to an old computer. The disk in the front has a handwritten label reading "Disk 4 of 12". Strong Bad's gloves reach into the shot, open the case and begin rifling through the contents.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' When I check my email,

''{Strong Bad holds up a disk labeled "Old Game".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —there are some old games.

''{Strong Bad inserts the disk into a disk drive and then types on a keyboard with boxing gloves on.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Now I'm gonna play them for you.

''{The monitor comes to life, showing a screen reading "Strong Bad's Disk 4 of 12". A disk reading noise plays.}''

''{Fade into a shot of Strong Bad's desk, zooming in on the container of floppy disks, the frontmost one reading "friendly ware".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' This episode's game comes from sbemail 65: unused emails. And this game, oh man, it's the greatest game!

''{Cut to live-action. Strong Bad's gloves display the game's case, which is a small, white, 3-ring binder containing 3 diskettes and some legal and instructional papers.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The FriendlyWare P.C. Introductory Set was a series of games and... productivity... programs?

''{Cut to a shot of the computer, which displays a blank screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' —that were made to introduce the early-1980's family—

''{The screen displays the family from [[QWERTY]].}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' —to their new personal computer.

''{Cut back to the case.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Let's take a look here.

''{Strong Bad flips the contents of the case to the instructional sheet at the front.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Whoa! Look at—

''{Cut to a close-up of the sheet, which has illustrations of the oversized Control, Alt, and Period/Delete keys.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' the size of those Control-Alt-Delete keys! Those things look like... family sedans!

''{The illustration of the Alt key grows four wheels and drives out of frame, complete with exhaust smoke, screeching sounds, and tire marks left behind on the sheet. Cut to black, then to a red curtain which parts to reveal the previously seen keyboard keys with Ctrl, Alt, and Del (with period) on top on them. The keys have crude drawings on them to make them resemble vehicles. "Ctrl" is being driven by a crude drawing of [[Marzipan]], "Alt" is occupied by several faces, and "Del" contains [[Perducci]], as well as [[Strong Mad]]'s disembodied face. "New for 1981" fades into the bottom left.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Introducing the complete fleet of 1981 keyboard ''{lighted The-Show-style orange sign reading "FAMILY SEDANS" slides in from top}'' family sedans.

''{Cut to a closeup of the Ctrl car, panning up and right. A red burst reading "16 Ashtrays!" spins into the top right.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Control, for moms on the go.

''{Cut to a closeup of the Alt car, panning up and left. A red burst reading "Optional Seat'belt'" spins into the top left.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Alt, for big families.

''{Cut to a closeup of the Del car, zooming in. A red burst reading "Body already in trunk!" spins into the bottom left.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And for the shady businessman, the Delete.

''{Fade out, cut back to Strong Bad attempting to flip through the instructional sheet, but failing due to his boxing gloves.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Let's see, what else we got in here? Oh yeah, I gotta call out this specific passage. This is amazing:

''{Cut to a closeup of the instructional sheet, with the paragraph Strong Bad reads being highlighted and zooming in.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Whereas the great majority of microcomputers have a total addressable memory of 64k or less, the PC's attainable range of addressable memory is ''theoretically'' ''{text bulges out as he reads it}'' nearly 1 Megabyte. ''{stops reading}'' Can't you just see a bunch of bearded Palo Alto types sittin' around with pipes?

''{Cut to a 4 Gregs scenario with the Gregs all with beards and pipes. D n' D Greg is sitting on a chair with "d n' d greg (early adopter)" on his shirt, Sci-Fi Greg sitting on the ground with "same old greg" on his shirt, Open Source Greg standing twirling his pipe with "GNU project greg" on his shirt, and Japanese Culture Greg standing with bubbles coming out of his pipe with "mostly just starblazers greg at this point" on his shirt.}''

'''OPEN SOURCE GREG:''' Uh, gentlemen, the data is there! ''{raising his pipe}'' We WILL reach 1 megabyte by century's end!

''{D n' D Greg is crushed by a monitor with a built-in floppy disk drive, with (A)BORT! written above. Sci-Fi Greg is crushed by a larger monitor without a drive, (R)ETRY! written above. Open Source Greg is not crushed by anything, instead gaining a shocked expression, (i)GNORE! written above. Japanese Culture Greg is crushed by a large tower with a reel-to-reel tape recorder built in, (F)AiL! written above, which later changes to (C)RASH!.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Abort! Retry! Ignore! Fail! Or crash, sometimes.

''{Cut to Strong Bad closing the instructional sheet.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' All right, let's check this game out! Please insert disk 4 of 12.

''{Cut to black, disk reading sound is heard. Cut to the title screen saying "WELCOME TO", the letters of FriendlyWare come in from the right of the screen}''

'''STRONG BAD''' ''{voiceover}'' F-R-I-E- ''{speeding up}'' N-D— ''{unintelligible}'' That's a pretty dynamic animated logo. ''{presses enter to pull up the programs menu}'' Ooh, and look at all these options! Immediately the words "Killer" and "Battle" ''{those words are surrounded by a pink box}'' jump out at me. All right, let's go with killer.

''{Strong Bad selects "Killer Maze".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Would you like instructions?" No!

''{A colorful 3D ASCII maze generates. Strong Bad is facing east. At the bottom of the screen, as with all subsequent programs, is a message telling the user to strike F10 to leave.}''

[[File:Disk 4 of 12 - FriendlyWare.png|thumb|"This multicolored labyrinth stretching on for infinity!"]]

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh man, look at this maze! This multicolored labyrinth stretching on for infinity! Who knows what dangers lurk inside the Killer Maze? ''{navigating, mumbling}'' North, turn to the west, and go north again! And then west again! And then that's a dead end. And then all the way around... south... no. Yes! Back to ''{chuckling}'' where I was before. Go... keep going... take this left! Over here, north... and then to the east! Okay, so far my main question is where are all the, like, demons and bad guys, and why can't I shoot? Wait a minute... is this like that Hallrunner game ''{the Hallrunner player character appears onscreen, running}'' where the bad guys were pop quizzes?

''{A Hallrunner dialog box appears onscreen:}''

<blockquote>
POP QUIZZES MAKE GOOD BAD GUYS BECAUSE:
:1) OH WAIT
:2) THEY DON'T
:3) NEVER MIND
</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Get outta here!

''{The box and the runner vanish.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' South... ''{makes a series of grunts of concentrated navigation}'' Kinda feel like I'm going in a circle... I shoulda got some graph paper before I did this! ''{voice starts to speed up}'' Oh, I have no idea where I am...

''{The video fast-forwards as Strong Bad continues to walk through the maze, speaking in sped-up squeaks. It finally returns to normal speed as Strong Bad faces what looks like an exit to the north.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' ...oh! Look at that! It looks like the end! It's gotta be where the big end boss is waiting for me! Let's go! ''{walks several paces north until the end of the hall materializes into... a wall}'' Let—aw man! A wall? ''{keeps navigating}'' Um, this must have been set on easy. Because there don't appear to be any bad guys in here. I haven't found a single med pack or some ammo clips. ''{ASCII graphics of these items appear onscreen as he mentions them}'' Okay.

''{He rounds a corner to find, to the east, a blinking EXIT sign.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Wait! EXIT! The exit! D—did I do it?

''{He goes east. The screen rewards him with the words, "You Made It !!!! in 82 Moves. Would You Like To Try Again? <Y/N>"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' I made it! In 82 moves! And there was absolutely no reward! Are you freakin' kidding me?! There's nothing killer about that maze! That is the safest maze I've ever been inside of! Can't I at least get, like, a ASCII cackledemon as a reward?

''{Cut back to one corridor of the maze, where an ASCII cacodemon appears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' That would've been enough! I'm playing DOS games here! My expectations are only, like, ankle high!

''{He exits to the main menu.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' All right, let's see, what else we got? "Eye & Hearing Test"? ''{the program is highlighted}'' How'd they sneak that one onto the top menu? That should definitely be between, like, the Amortaninazation Calculator—

''{Option E, "Sea Battle", is replaced with "Amortaninazation Calculator" as Strong Bad speaks; the name is so long that it pushes option I, "Tic Tac Toe", off to the right.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' —and like, Edgar's Checkbook Balance Blasta.

''{A program appears on the screen as Strong Bad speaks:}''

''{The red arrow symbol shoots the dollar sign symbol a few times. The program disappears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' All right, let's see, what else we got? Let's go to menu two.

''{Strong Bad advances to menu two, offering a new set of programs.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Ooh, let's try Match!

''{Strong Bad selects Match. The program asks him if he wants instructions.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Would you like instructions?" Sure!

''{An instruction screen comes up. Strong Bad reads from it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' "In this game, you will try to match prizes on the game board before your opponent does!"

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh, this sounds like a two-player game, Strong Bad!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Aw man!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' That's right! As our resident game show host, I figured I should be your partner in this endeavor, Strong Bad!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover, very flatly}'' Okay greeeat!

''{He advances to the next screen, which prompts him for his first name.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Player 1, please enter your first name." ''{typing}'' Oldenbut. ''{hits enter, and a prompt for player 2 appears below}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Player 2, please enter ''your'' first name." You know I gotta go with my all-time favorite, ''{typing}'' Bernau. ''{hits enter}''

''{The screen briefly reads "One Moment While I Generate A Game Board", then a game board consisting of five columns (lettered A to E) and eight rows (numbered 1 to 8) prints. A prompt reads, "BERNAU , What Is Your FIRST Choice?"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Whoa, this looks like the old Family Feud grid!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Bernau, what is your first choice?" I'm going with D7.

''{Space D7 is revealed to be ROLEX CAMERA, worth $90.00. The prompt now asks for Bernau's second choice.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Ooh, a Rolex camera! I know they're trying to fool me, but I know the match is at D8.

''{D8 is revealed to be 6 PACK/COORS. The message reads, "SORRY BERNAU , But No Match".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Did that say a six-pack of Coors?

''{The board resets and Oldenbut is prompted for his first choice.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Oldenbut, what is ''your'' first choice?" Let's go over here to B6.

''{B6 is VOLKSWAGEN, worth $5,500.00. Cut to Homestar Runner on The Show set with his microphone and cue cards.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' A horrible Volkswagen!

''{The background lifts to reveal the "Ctrl" sedan from earlier as The Show's theme plays. Homestar sings along to it. Cut back to the game.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Shut up. Uh, this thing's definitely at D4.

''{D4 is MOBILE HOME.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Mobile home?!

''{The board resets; Bernau is asked for his first choice.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' I'm going with A4.

''{A4 is GOLD RING, worth $300.00.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Gold ring! I betcha that increases my defense!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' It's not that kind of a game, Homestar.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' They always try to fool me—I'm going with A5.

''{A5 is TRIP TO JAPAN.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Trip to Japan!

''{The board resets; Oldenbut is asked for his first choice.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Are you always just gonna check the one right below the one you just picked?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Yes ma'am.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Augh. A2.

''{A2 is 6 PACK/COORS, worth $3.15.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover, excited}'' Six-pack of Coors! That's right, it was over there, at D8!

''{D8 is 6 PACK/COORS. The prompt reads, "ALLRIGHT, A Match !! OLDENBUT, For $3.15 In Prizes, Guess My Secret Number <10 to 99>".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Nice! A six-pack of Cold Ones! "All right, a match! Oldenbut, for ''{laughing a little}'' three dollars and fifteen cents in prizes" — ooh! That's a cheap six-pack! — "guess my secret number, 10 to 99." Oh man. You know I gotta go with 54.

''{54 is "Sorry, Too High. But Still Your Turn."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Still too high?

''{The board now has spaces A2 and D8 missing. Oldenbut is prompted for his first choice.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Okay, I get to go again. Uh, B6.

''{B6 is VOLKSWAGEN, worth $5,500.00.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' That Volkswagen. Did I already do that?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover, singsong}'' I'm not telling!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover, pained}'' What if Homestar's right and it's the one right below it? Aaagh, you got in my head!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover, smoothly}'' That's what I do, Strong Bad. It's allll mind games.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' I'm doing it! B7!

''{B7 is FRIENDLYWARE.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' D'awh! FriendlyWare?!

''{The board resets; Bernau is asked for his first choice.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Ha ha! My turn! D3.

''{D3 is MX-80 PRINTER, worth $550.00.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' An MX-80 printer! Preeeow!

''{The Paper prints with the word PREEEOW in ASCII bubble letters.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh man, that doesn't date this game at all!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' And let-me-think-about-it D4.

''{D4 is MOBILE HOME. The board resets and Oldenbut is prompted for his first choice.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' I'm going with C5.

''{C5 is CORVETTE, worth $25,000.00. A red ASCII art Corvette drives by under the board over Strong Bad's next line.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' A Corvette! Yes! All right, it's gonna be in E7!

''{E7 is FRIENDLYWARE.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' FriendlyWare?!

''{The board resets; Bernau is asked for his first choice.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Ooh, now I know what that is. B7...

''{B7 is FRIENDLYWARE, worth $49.95.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' And E7.

''{E7 is FRIENDLYWARE. Bernau is asked to guess the computer's secret number for $49.95 in prizes.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Ding ding ding ding ding! Whoa, FriendlyWare costs $49.95?

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And them's 1983 dollars!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Bernau, guess my secret number, 10 to 99!" Uh, 23.

''{A message reads "Congratulations BERNAU You WIN !!!" before every space on the board is revealed and the message changes to "Strike Any Key To See Your Prizes". The Show music plays.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Congratulations Bernau! You win!"

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' ''What the crap?!'' You can just guess a stupid number and win the game?! Aw man. I coulda won a Betamax, ''{the items he names are highlighted}'' a brick home, whatever a Tampa Nugget is... and a turkey farm! ''{emotional}'' You cheated me out of my turkey farm, Homestar!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Hey, check it out! The MX-80 printer actually followed my double-up style! ''{the two MX-80 printers are highlighted}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' I'll double up ''your'' style if you don't get outta here!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover, distant}'' I already left your house!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Good riddance! F10!

''{Strong Bad exits to the main menu.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Let's see, what else we got on here? Uh, let's check out... Intro Menu 2.

''{Strong Bad changes the menu.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover, mumbling}'' Blackjack, Dominoes, boring, boring, boring... Whoa, Personal Biorhythms! That sounds awesome!

''{Strong Bad selects "Personal Biorhythms". The program asks if he wants instructions.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' In the spirit of BioForge and Bio Menace! ''{the title screens for these games show up as Strong Bad mentions them}'' I bet you "Biorhythm" is gonna really deliver! No, I don't need instructions!

''{Strong Bad advances to the next screen, which asks for his birth date.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Whoa! "Enter your birth date". This game's gonna, like, take place in real time! Let's just put in a nice bogus one here... ''{types "06-23-73"; the program asks him to confirm}'' Correct? Yes!

''{The next screen asks for a start date.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Please enter a start date for your chart". Let's start in the eighties! ''{types "06-23-83"; the program asks him to confirm}'' Yes!

''{A graph generates of three sinusoidal curves made of "P"s, "I"s, and "E"s respectively, with dates on the left spanning from 6/23/83 to 7/13/83. The graph is split by a vertical line down the center. The left, center, and right portions of the graph are labelled DOWN, CRITICAL, and UP respectively.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Whoa! What the— P... and I... and E... I should've read the instructions! Down, critical, up! I have no idea! Space bar to continue!

''{He advances to the next page; the graph continues to 8/3/83.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' What am I looking at here? Oh. P, I, E. I'm looking for pie! ''{continues clicking through pages}'' Okay. That's gotta be the object here. This is definitely as good as BioForge and Bio Menace.

''{Strong Bad grunts as he loads a page where "P I E" appears on the fifth to last line.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' P... P-I-E! There it is! Look! There at the bottom of the page! ''{the letters are highlighted}'' P, I, E! And an ampersand even! ''{the highlight extends down to an ampersand below the E}'' I got pie! On November 12th, 1983! ''{advances to the next page}'' All right, I'm done pretending that this is any good. Let's leave.

''{He exits to the main menu.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' All right, FriendlyWare. "Sea Battle" is your last chance. Don't disappoint me!

''{He selects Sea Battle, which prompts him for his first name.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' "What is your first name, Captain? Enter your name and then STRIKE the enter key!" Strike it down with extreme prejudice! Captain... ''{typing}'' Symptomo. That's right. ''{the next screen asks if he wants instructions}'' "Would you like instructions?" No!

''{A couple bars of 8-bit "Anchors Aweigh" play as the game board generates: three levels consisting of an array of letters from A to X. An ASCII battleship is at the top of the screen. A prompt at the bottom of the screen reads, "Choose a Level 1, 2, or 3 and Strike Corresponding Key".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh man! Look at that battleship! That thing's amazing! All right, what do we got here? Level 1... level 2... level 3... choose a level and ''strike'' the corresponding key! I love all these strikings that we're doing! It's like the word "press" hadn't been invented yet in the early eighties. Or the word "mash". Uh, let's go with level 2.

''{Strong Bad selects level 2. The prompt now reads, "Choose a Quadrant A Thru X and Strike Corresponding Key".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And choose a quad-''rant'', A through X. Uh, let's go with quadrant... N!

''{The game reports an "Illegal function call in 330".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Illegal function call in 330? What the crap? This awesome Sea Battle game doesn't even work! Let's just take a peek under the hood here. ''{hits enter a couple times, printing "Syntax error", then types:}'' LIST 330.

''{Line 330 of the source code prints:}''

<pre>
330 POKE (X-1)*160+Y*2-1,W:POKE (X-1)*160+Y*2-2,V:NEXT:PRINT CHR$(29)"█":FOR X=20 TO 500 STEP 10:SOUND X*2+22,.0001:NEXT:SOUND X,0:RETURN
</pre>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh, 330. "Poke"? Kinda code is "poke"? ''{mumbles through the line of code}'' Um, okay, I'm just gonna start, uh, tweaking some stuff here... ''{types "EDIT 330", allowing him to edit the line}'' based on my expert programmering... just gonna make this two minus one. ''{changes "Y*2-2" to "Y*2-1"}'' Totally. Totally great. And ''{typing}'' RUN.

''{The game board prints again.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Okay, here we go. Let's see. Let's see. Go back to level 2, and this time we'll try quadrant N!

''{The game reports an illegal function call as before, but this time a series of ¥ characters with different-colored backgrounds prints in a vertical line above quadrant N.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Whoa! I added some awesome colors and scorpions! But uh, still... still doesn't work. Let's just see here. ''{types "LIST"}'' Let's look at the program—

''{The entire source code of the game prints, scrolling for a while before ending on line 1000.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Whoa, oh man! Oh dang! Look at that! One thousand lines of code! This has gotta be, like, the longest game ever programmed! Oh, wait a minute! I see some graphics in there! ''{typing "LIST 800-900"}'' List... let's see... 800 to 900...

''{Lines 800 to 900 print. 890 and 900 contain the ASCII ship graphics inside of PRINT statements.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh yes! Look at that! That's their ship graphics, man! Okay, let's see. ''{typing "EDIT 900"}'' Edit line 900. Oh man. Go in here... We are aboard the S.S. Totalbelow! ''{he types "S.S.TOTALBELOW" in the ship graphics}'' ''{chuckling}'' That's right. All right, let's see. ''{typing}'' RUN.

''{The game board prints as before, but now the name S.S.TOTALBELOW adorns the side of the ship.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover, gleeful}'' Yes! Look at that thing! The S.S. Totalbelow! Let's watch it not work correctly! ''{selects quadrant M on level 3, which is bombarded with colorful ¥ characters and an illegal function call in 330 as Strong Bad makes a cannonball sound}'' Scorpions! Red scorpion! Green scorpions! Oh man. What else can I do to this broken game? Ooh, I've got an idea!

''{He lists lines 800 to 900 again.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Bear with me now. I'm gonna get pretty great here.

''{Strong Bad starts typing line 891 as he speaks.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover, mumbling}'' Add my own line 891 there. I gotta try and remember all of my DOSes. ''{singing}'' Ooh, all my DOS programming. Program you so well. All my DOS programming! Only time will tell! If I remember how to... program you properly!

''{Strong Bad has added the following lines:}''

<pre>

893 COLOR 6,0:LOCATE 4,20:PRINT"v___":LOCATE 5,20:PRINT"|oo/":COLOR 7,0
</pre>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Okay, that should do it! Let's run!

''{He runs the game. Colored ASCII renderings of Strong Bad and The Cheat are now aboard the S.S. Totalbelow.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' There we are! It's me and The Cheat! Standing dangerously in front of that giant cannon! ''{singing to "Anchors Aweigh"}'' Doo doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doh dah dah! Oh man. Strong Bad and The Cheat sailing the three-layered alphabetical seas in the S.S. Totalbelow.

''{Zoom out to a view of Strong Bad's monitor.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Well, I think the fact that I'm hacking these games in order to make them enjoyable is a sure sign we've reached the limit of what FriendlyWare has to offer. But if anybody knows how to fix that illegal function call, be sure and let me know in the comments. Here's hoping we may one day reach one megabyte.

''{A beep sounds as the screen shuts off.}''

''{Cut to a fake YouTube autoplay screen: "Hallrunner Speedlong Runplay - 16 HOURS! DENNIS%"}''

''{Cut back to the FriendlyWare main menu.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Whoa, check it out. The Return to DOS. ''{option L, "Return To DOS", is highlighted}'' That's way better than Escape from DOS. Let's play it!

''{He selects the option, which quits FriendlyWare and brings him to the DOS command line.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh. It's just a... return to DOS. Hey, let's, like, mess around in here then! ''{types "DIR/P", bringing up the working directory, and reads from the list}'' BASIC, BASICA... BASICA sounds like a Teen Girl Squad character.

''{Cut to a Teen Girl Squad panel. What's Her Face is standing next to a girl drawn in green ASCII art with "mm-dd-yy" written on her dress.}''

'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Hey BASICA. You wanna come over for some pizza rolls and—

'''BASICA:''' ''{speaks in a distorted voice as What's Her Face looks alarmed}'' Illegal function call in 330!!

''{BASICA chops an oddly happy-looking What's Her Face in half with an ASCII battle axe.}''

'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' SYNTAXE ERROR!

''{Cut back to DOS.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Uh, let's see, let's go into BASICA... ''{enters BASICA}'' Just make a little program here... ''{typing a three-line BASIC program}'' "FriendlyWare... is kinda... the worst." Kay. Oops, let's make a—go ahead and—don't forget to clear screen. 20 goto 10.

''{Strong Bad's program reads:}''

<pre>
10 PRINT"FRIENDLYWARE IS KINDA THE WORST"
5 CLS
20 GOTO 10
</pre>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Let's do it. ''{typing}'' RUN.

''{The screen fills with endless lines of "FRIENDLYWARE IS KINDA THE WORST".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover, laughing}'' Yaaay! I did it!

''{He terminates the program.}''

== Transcript ==
''{The scene starts out on a screen that resembles the "Address Not Found" screen of [[Wikipedia:Mozilla Firefox|Mozilla Firefox]]. Strong Sad appears from the bottom of the frame, wearing his Deleteheads hat.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{wags his finger}'' Oh, no you don't! The Deleteheads started—

''{The scene shifts to the right, revealing Strong Mad and The Cheat in their Deleteheads hats standing next to a tent and an ice chest.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' —camping out for sbemail 200 weeks ago! ''{points with his thumb over his shoulder}'' Back of the line!

''{The scene shifts further right, revealing that they are the only ones there. A tumbleweed rolls behind them.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{off-screen}'' But there's really no one else here yet, so ''{reappears from the bottom of the frame}'' you can get right behind us. We're gonna play "Name That Inconsistency" later on if you want to join us.

''{Strong Sad gets right in the viewer's face, causing Strong Mad and The Cheat to jump.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{angrily}'' Don't even think about eating any of our Sun Chips! I packed those special!

''{The scene shifts back to its original position.}''

== Easter Eggs==
*After the toon has finished, click on the "Try Again" button to replay the toon.

== Fun Facts ==

=== Trivia ===
*The fake page load error reads:
<blockquote>
'''Address Not Found''' 
 
The browser could not find the host server for the provided address.
* Did you make a mistake when typing the domain? Did you grandma?
* Are you certain this domain name exists? Its registration may have expired.
* Are you unable to browse other sites? Check your network connection, DNS server settings, and self before you riggidy-wreck yourself. 
* Is your computer protected by a firewall or proxy? Incorrect settings can interfere with Web browsing. Quit touching my stuff!
</blockquote>

=== Remarks ===
*[[Homsar]] and the [[Cinder Block]] are not with the rest of the Deleteheads.
*This is the first [[fake error page]] to use the Firefox error page. Previous ones have used the [[Wikipedia:Internet Explorer 6|Internet Explorer 6]] error page.
*This toon, similar to [[Not the 100th Email!!!]], used the URL "sbemail200" on the [[Flash]] website, while the real 200th email has an irregular URL like [[flashback]]'s. The 200th email's URL was "sbemailtwohundred".
**This is no longer the case as of the [[Ruffle]] update, with email thunder now occupying the numerical URL for consistency. As a result, this toon can not be found on the new site.
*Strong Sad claims to have been camping out for weeks, but on the Monday before this toon could be found, the short [[Place ya Bets!]] had them betting on sbemail 200 in their normal meeting place.
*"Name That Inconsistency" would have [[Inconsistencies within the Homestar Runner universe|plenty of material to draw from]].

=== Inside References ===
*Strong Sad previously camped out in the email [[rated]] with the same tent and cooler.
*A [[tumbleweed]] rolls past the campsite.
*"Riggidy-wreck yourself" echoes [[Gunhaver]]'s revisionist catchphrase "riggidy-roll" from [[An Important Rap Song]].
*This entire short is a [[fourth wall break]].

=== Real-World References ===
*[[Wikipedia:Sun Chips|Sun Chips]] is a brand of chips produced by Frito-Lay.
*"Check your network connection, DNS server settings, and self before you riggidy-wreck yourself" is a reference to the song "[[Wikipedia:Check Yo Self|Check Yo Self]]" by rapper Ice Cube.

== Transcript ==

''{Scene opens to typical [[Wikipedia:Internet Explorer 6|Internet Explorer 6]] error message. The sound of the wind blowing can be heard.}''

''{Strong Bad walks on to the screen from the left to confront the viewer.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, I suppose you think you're ''{sways his hips}'' pretty clever, huh? Thought you would find something you weren't supposed to see yet? Well, it's not—

''{Homestar walks on from the right, interrupting Strong Bad.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, is this where the hundredth email is?

'''STRONG BAD:''' No. Get outta here!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' When are you gonna do one already?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, just keep your pants on.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Pants? Hmm...

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, chew on that one for a while... ''{mumbles as he walks off}'' Teach you to poke around in my HTML...

''{A handwritten sticky note, which is supposed to be a system alert message, is slapped onto the screen; it reads:}''

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===

*In the two weeks following [[different town]], the 99th [[Strong Bad Email]], fans eagerly awaited the release of [[flashback|the 100th]] Strong Bad Email. After being teased by [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 5]], [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 10.2]], and [[Puppet Time]], many people grew impatient waiting for the 100th email. Because it wasn't linked anywhere on the site, some users went so far as to check the expected URL for the email directly. The only way this could be done was to type "http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail100.html" into their address bar, following the format used for the previous 99 emails. This URL led to the usual [[404'd]] page, until about 2:20 a.m. ET on Tuesday, March 16, 2004, which was when users were greeted by this secret toon.

===Trivia===
*This is the first secret page on the site that is supposed to be found, but was never purposefully linked to at any time. However, for a short while, the links to Strong Bad Emails on [[Broken Compy Menu]] were one lower than they should've been, so clicking on [[car]] brought you to Not the 100th Email!!!.

===Remarks===
*Since the file for this animation was named "sbemail100" on the [[Flash]] website, the [[flashback|actual hundredth email]]'s file name was "sbemailahundred".
**As of the [[Ruffle]] update, flashback now occupies the numerical URL for consistency. As a result, this toon can not be found on the new site.
*The total number of frames in this file is exactly ''four hundred four'' ([[Wikipedia:HTTP 404|404]]). (29 frames have been added in after the Flash file stops to bring it to this count.)
*The name of the Flash file is 100th_email, so there is no sbemail100.swf on the Flash website.

===Inside References===
*The fake system report is from [[50 emails]]. Homestar put up a nearly identical one when he caused an [[Strong Bad's Computer Malfunctioning|error]] on the [[Compy 386|Compy]].
*This is another reference to [[Homestar Runner's Pants]].
*This entire short is a [[fourth wall break]].

==Fast-Forwarded Dialogue==
I've been trying to decipher what Strong Bad says during the sped-up bit. So far, this is what I've got, with gibberish simulating the incomprehensible parts.

"Ugh, I have no idea where I am, because it's impossible to ouert myself, because the lents keep changing burlur, because a programmer just shunt tilumin shumt dedele programmers! Ugh, I shouldn't have done these. I just wanna... I just wish ulu guncheh borp porble".

''{A live-action case filled with 5 inch floppies sits on a desk next to an old computer. The disk in the front has a handwritten label reading "Disk 4 of 12". Strong Bad's gloves reach into the shot, open the case and begin rifling through the contents.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' When I check my email,

''{Strong Bad holds up a disk labeled "Old Game".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —there are some old games.

''{Strong Bad inserts the disk into a disk drive and then types on a keyboard with boxing gloves on.}''

''{Strong Bad flips the contents of the case to the instructional sheet at the front.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Woah! Look at-

''{Cut to a close-up of the sheet, which has illustrations of the Control, Alt, and Period/Delete keys which extend to show the neighboring keys.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' the size of those Control-Alt-Delete keys! Those things look like... family sedans!

''{Suspenseful music sting plays. Four silhouetted Topplegangers appear from the bushes, pointing guns at Gunhaver, Silent Rip and Crackotage.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' All together now, boys.

'''ALL:''' ''{nervously}'' Mmmm... gulp!

''{Subtlefuge walks out of the bushes}''

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Well, if it isn't my good twin brother, ''Crap''otage! And a couple of Cheat Commandos. ''{pronounced cuh-mon-dos}''

''{Cut to Crackotage next to Silent Rip}''

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Not anymore, Subtlefuge. We're on our own!

'''SILENT RIP:''' And we need your help to break into the Headquarters Playset and free Blue Laser!

''{Cut back to Subtlefuge}''

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' And how do we know this isn't a trap?

''{Cut to Gunhaver melting with his lip-print-patterned boxers showing.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' I've been wearing these same boxers for three ''{Crackotage and Silent Rip get disturbed expressions}'' days!

''{Cut back to Subtlefuge}''

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Euhhg! I'm convinced. You might as well meet the rest of the Topplegangers.

''{Cut to a scene with one of the Topplegangers. The Toppleganger is wearing glasses, also has a mustache, and has a gray skin color, wearing a pink shirt saying "BAD GUY", with a German helmet with a skull on it.}''

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Dryghost.

''{Cut to another scene with another Toppleganger, who has 2 scars, a green mohawk, a blue skin color, a chain around his chest, and a black coat.}''

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Swampslash.

''{Cut to another scene with just trees, where a Toppleganger falls from [[Hammerspace]]. Toppleganger has colorful clown hair, a bright yellow skin color, multicolored spots, and wears facepaint and a grenade belt.}''

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Fudgeclank.

'''FUDGECLANK:''' ''{goofy clown laughter}''

''{The Topplegangers all gather beside Subtlefuge.}''

'''SUBTLEFUGE''': Each is sold separately with rifle and gear.

''{The "[[Cheap as Free]]" logo appears in the bottom left corner. Cut an exterior shot of the Cheat Commandos HQ, zooming in to the inside. Flashfight stands in front of [[The Screen]], on which is a diagram and the words "OPERATION TAKE 'EM DOWN".}''

'''FLASHFIGHT:''' And then we all reverse flank, drop trou, and the insurgents should surrender! Any questions?

''{Cut to Fightgar and Firebert.}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, can we let Blue Laser out so we can maybe have some ''fun'' for once?

''{Fightgar and Firebert start laughing.}''

'''FLASHFIGHT:''' Uh-uh! Don't make me have to fire ''you'', Firebert. I'd hate to waste such an exquisite commando name!

'''FIREBERT:''' ''{Sad The Cheat noises}''

''{Cut to Reynold and Blue Laser Commander in Reynold's office. A picture of Gunhaver is on the wall}''

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{to picture of Gunhaver}'' And I'd like to submit a formal request for you to shut your face whenever it's convenient for you, and if not, then no problem!

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Aw, come on! Really let 'er rip!

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{shaking and jumping towards the picture}'' I'll tear off your face! I'll tear it right off! I'll tear it off and wear it to town!

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{shocked}'' Whoa! Struck a nerve there, eh, little scrawn job?

'''REYNOLD:''' Hmmm, 'Scrawnjob'! I like the sound of that.

''{Suspenseful music sting plays. Cut to the Topplegangers' hideout, where the Topplegangers and the ex-Cheat Commandos are gathered around a table. Subtlefuge lays out a sheet labeled "Cheat Commandos Headquarters Playset Assembly Instructions".}''

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Here are the plans!

'''SILENT RIP:''' Where did you get those?!

'''DRYGHOST:''' We've had 'em for a while. I got the headquarters playset for my Bar Mitzvah.

'''SWAMPSLASH:''' It looks like this rear battery cover leads to the holding cell.

'''GUNHAVER:''' Then that's our way in!

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' We'll take the Ramshankle!

''{Cut to the Topplegangers and former Commandos in a beat up boat with a pair of wings and a tank turret attached to it.}''

'''SINGERS:''' It's the Ramshankle, and you know dang well, it's made out of old vehicles that we couldn't sell!

''{Cut to Flashfight and the Cheat Commandos.}''

'''FLASHFIGHT:''' Since you've all been working so hard, I have a little surprise for you. ''Non-Violent Dressage Mishaps Volume 4''!

'''ALL BUT FLASHFIGHT:''' ''{groans}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' I wanted to watch... pony... fightin'.

''{Cut to the others outside the battery cover.}''

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Here's the battery cover, but how will we ever get it open?

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Leave that to Swampslash, our master of disguise. He speaks three different languages, and can blend in anywhere.

'''SWAMPSLASH:''' ''{dressed as a battery}'' Uh... Charge. Positive. Negative. Rabbit. Um... Lick?

''{The cover bursts open, revealing a group of severely-corroded batteries, and releasing clouds of dust. Everyone starts coughing.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' No wonder the electronic lights and sounds stopped working. These batteries haven't been changed since Donnie's twelfth birthday!

''{Cut to Reynold's office. Gunhaver crashes through the wall.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Sorry Blue Laser, you've stayed in jail for the last time!

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{happily}'' Can I get a "''bo''-nus"?!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Bo-nus! Now get out there and make with the evil schemes!

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' "Evil scheme" is quite literally my middle name! It's Slovenian.

'''GUNHAVER:''' Ha! This terlet has the green water in it! A-cool!

''{Cut to outside battery cover. Blue Laser Commander walks out through the empty battery compartment.}''

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Now, there's the slight matter of our er, um, uh, let me think of it, how do you say, er, uh... payment!

'''SILENT RIP:''' ''{looking surprised}'' Oh! Uh... right! How do you feel about defaulted, unpaid, triple mortgages on restaurant spaces?

'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' ''{snatches the mortgage out of his hand}'' As good as gold!

''{Cut to the HQ interior, where Fightgar, Ripberger, Firebert and two green helmets face [[The Screen]]}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' And then...

'''ALL:''' ''{gasp}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Once again...

'''ALL:''' ''{gasp}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ...absolutely nothing happened.

'''ALL:''' Awwww...

''{Blue Laser Commander appears on screen. Suspenseful music sting plays.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Attention Cheat Commandos!

'''ALL:''' ''{gasp}''

'''FLASHFIGHT:''' How did ''he'' get out!?

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' You're already too late! I've flooded the world's amusement parks with counterfeit Skee-Ball tickets, causing the cost of Skee-Ball prizes to sky-rocket!

'''ALL BUT FLASHFIGHT:''' ''{gasp}''

'''FLASHFIGHT:''' And ''why'' should the military be concerned with this?

'''FIGHTGAR:''' You'll never get away with it, Blue Laser!

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Oh, it wasn't ''my'' idea. Meet Blue Laser's newest evil mastermind, Scrawnjob!

''{Danger Music plays, Reynold shows up on screen, wearing large goggles, a baggy Blue Laser uniform and a jagged red necktie with skulls on it.}''

'''REYNOLD/SCRAWNJOB:''' That's right, Cheat ComannDON'TS! Say goodbye to those oversized novelty sunglasses! And that boom box was never attainable!

'''FLASHFIGHT:''' So, you've made a game for eight-year-olds slightly more of a rip-off. I still don't see how this affects global security.

''{Cut to Gunhaver, Silent Rip and Crackotage, who are now in the room.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Don't you see, Admiral? Without plastic crap to win, kids will have no recourse but to join criminal groups! The world will be overrun with lasers of ''all'' colors!

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{halfheartedly}'' Oh no, Gunhaver figured it out, rendering my plan useless through the TV! Bested again by my old nemesis.

'''ALL:''' Yay!

'''FLASHFIGHT:''' Oh well. I suppose you two are ridiculous enough to justify the other's existence. Here, Gunhaver, you can... have gun. ''{gives Gunhaver's gun back to him}''

'''GUNHAVER''': Thanks! ''{shoots Flashfight}''

'''ALL:''' ''{gasp}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' No, it's cool. He's wearin' that bullet-proof vest from earlier.

''{Reinforcements comes in, wearing the bullet-proof vest.}''

'''REINFORCEMENTS:''' Hey guys.

''{Gunhaver looks at Reinforcements with shock.}''

''{Quick cut to the theme song ending screen, picking up where it left off in part 1.}''

'''SINGERS:''' —ets and toys!!

==Easter Eggs==
*Click on "playsets" at the end to see Crackotage rhyming.
:''{Cut to a scene with Crackotage at the left and some other Cheat Commandos at the right}''
:'''CRACKOTAGE''': And now that I'm back as part of the team, I can get into my old rhyme scheme. Laughity laugh laugh!
:'''ALL BUT CRACKOTAGE''': ''{moan}''

*Click on "toys" at the end to see a Taranchula clip.
:''{music plays; a [[Powered By The Cheat]] saw blade spins around, and a yellow sound monitor bar matching the music goes in front of it}''
:''{A Taranchula member stands, raises both hands in "devil horns" and a photo-realistic mouth comes out of his hair.}''
:'''TARANCHULA:''' That's what happens when you're down with the Fudgeclank!!!
:''{A Powered By The Cheat Fudgeclank comes in from the top.}''
:'''PBTC FUDGECLANK:''' ''{goofy clown laughter}''

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*"Toppelganger" references the concept of the [[Wikipedia:Doppelgänger|Doppelgänger]], a person who looks exactly like another person in every way.
*[[Wikipedia:Dressage|Dressage]] is a style of horse competition, emphasizing the movement and grace of horse and rider.
*A [[Wikipedia:Bar Mitzvah|Bar Mitzvah]] is the coming of age ceremony for Jewish males that takes place at age 13.
*The name of the Ramshankle comes from the word ramshackle, which basically means falling apart or hastily put together, making it an appropriate term.

===Trivia===
[[Image:DressageMishaps.png|thumb|"And then, once again... absolutely nothing happened."]]
*When Gunhaver bursts into Reynold's Office, the wall he breaks through had a drawing of him on it. He has the same pose and expression as the drawing for a noticeable moment.
*Before Blue Laser comes onto the screen, a few frames from "Non-Violent Dressage Mishaps Volume 4" can be seen.
*Silent Rip mentions the playset belonging to [[Donnie Chapman|Donnie]].
*"Made in Taiwan" is printed above the battery cover.
*The [[YouTube]] description for this toon is "The Topplegangers break into the Headquarters Playset to free Blue Laser Commander."

===Remarks===
*Gunhaver says, "This terlet has the green water in it!" Although there is green sludgy looking water around the base of the "terlet", the water inside it is light blue.
*When the ex-Cheat Commandos and the Topplegangers are riding in the Ramshankle, Silent Rip is not visible.
*In the opening of the toon, Gunhaver can be seen exiting the swamp, but the part of his body under the jacket is missing.
*The text on Dryghost's t-shirt is [[Flipped Images|backwards]] when he is seen riding the Ramshankle.
*Blue Laser Commander explains that the evil plan was Reynold/Scrawnjob's idea, but later says "...rendering MY plan useless..."

===Goofs===
*When the melting Gunhaver moves his arm, it covers a wrinkle in his shirt, even though it should create another.
*When the Cheat Commandos gasp at the shooting of Flashfight, Fightgar's face and left arm do not move with his body.
*Silent Rip comments that the lights and sounds stopped working, due to the fact that the batteries hadn't been changed, "since Donnie's twelfth birthday". However, in Part 1 of the episode when Admiral Flashfight arrives, a large steel door loudly opens while a futuristic sound effect plays. The Cheat Commandos have also received live video feeds and watched DVDs in their base, implying that they have always had a steady source of power.

===Inside References===
*Fightgar reminisces watching [[Pony Fights 2|Pony Fights]], previously seen in [[Commandos in the Classroom]].
*The words "BAD GUY" on Dryghost's t-shirt are likely a reference to [[Strong Bad]]'s [[tattoo]] idea in [[Strong Bad is a Bad Guy]].
*"[[Terlet]]" is a reversal of [["Er" pronounced as "Oi"]].
**The script was "written on the john", another euphemism for a [[toilet]].
*The Taranchula Easter egg recalls [[Trudgemank]].
*Flashfight mentions that Firebert's commando name is "exquisite", a play on the running joke that "Firebert" is a terrible commando name, begun in [[army]].
*Flashfight's plan involves the Commandos dropping their [[pants]].
*Subtlefuge refers to Crackotage as [[Crap]]otage.
*The [[battery]] disguise and the associated sounds are of the same style as those in [[bike thief]].
*Silent Rip appears to pull out the mortgages from [[Hammerspace|nowhere]].
*Flashfight appears to have been [[death|killed off]] at the end.
*The ex-commandos' gulp is another example of [[Spoken Sound Effects]].
**This line was uttered by Fightgar in [[Shopping for Danger]].
*The Blue Laser Commander says "[[Can I Get A...?|Can I get a]] bo-nus?" in a similar tone to how Strong Bad says "Can I get a restricted?" in [[rated]], with Gunhaver replying in a similar tone to [[Strong Sad]]'s response.

===Real-World References===
*Swampslash mentioning a rabbit while dressed like a battery is a reference to the mascot for [[Wikipedia:Energizer_Bunny|Energizer batteries]].
*The line "Each is sold separately with rifle and gear" is a reference to an '80s [[Wikipedia:A-Team#Merchandise|A-Team]] toy commercial, previously referenced in the commentary for [[more armies]]. In the commercial, they say the same exact line about the A-Team action figures.
*Reynold's pseudonym "Scrawnjob" is a reference to the rarely seen G.I. Joe character, [[Wikipedia:Snow Job (G.I._Joe)|Snow Job]].
*Flashfight's plan Operation Take 'em Down is a plan to moon the enemy. A similar battle strategy occurred in [[Wikipedia:Braveheart|''Braveheart'']].
*Given Cheat Commandos is a parody of 1980s cartoon-and-toyline-combo [[wikipedia:G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero|G.I. Joe]], the Topplegangers appear to be a reference to the [[wikipedia:Dreadnoks|Dreadnoks]], since both are swamp-dwelling third factions of mercenaries formed of members with Cockney accents. In particular, Swampslash's disguise and linguistic ablities refer to the chameleonic Dreadnok leader, [[Wikipedia:Zartan|Zartan]], who wore a mohawk and leather jacket in the early 1990s. Zartan's original figure turned blue in direct sunlight, which is likely why Swampslash is also blue.
*The Ramshankle is also a Dreadnok reference, specifically the [[wikipedia:Thunder Machine|Thunder Machine]], which (in-universe) is made up of parts from several vehicles, including a dune buggy, a Trans Am, and a stolen jet engine. The Thunder Machine toy itself was an original mold, though the idea of reusing parts from vehicles is a common one in such toylines.
*In general, the introduction of the Topplegangers calls to mind many toy-based cartoons, where new groups of characters would be introduced by name one at a time and each demonstrate their gimmick, to ensure the viewer would remember the names of their toys.
*Subtlefuge's description of Swampslash's abilities is also similar to Indiana Jones' false statement regarding Marcus Brody in [[Wikipedia:Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade|''Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'']]: "He speaks a dozen languages... He'll blend in — disappear..."
*Gunhaver's line about having no recourse but to join criminal groups is paraphrased from the [[Batman]] episode ''Joker Goes to School''

[[File:strongbadallthetimesogreat.PNG|thumb|Do you know THE PASSWORD?!]]
'''strongbadallthetimesogreat.com''' is a website separate from [[homestarrunner.com]] accessed via a quote spoken by the [[Strong Bad Talking Plush]]. It contains a text box where one can input a password. The header of the website reads "[[weclome]] to STRONGBADALLTHETiMESOGREAT dot.com", followed by two GIFs of the plush having a tantrum, bordering the text field, green text that reads [[animal|"I say there, monstrosity, do you know THE PASSWORD?!"]], and a button reading "[[mash]] go!". At the bottom of the site are the spinning guitar and "Fire!" GIFs from [[Strong Bad's Website]].

'''Date:''' Wednesday, November 25, 2020

'''Page Title:''' STRONGBADALLTHETIMESOGREATdot.com

==Solution==
[[File:secretstyles.gif|thumb|Secret styles]]
The correct password, found on the plush doll's tag, is "[[Cold One|C0LD0NE5]]". Alternatively, if the number of remaining password attempts reaches 0, the message says "OKAY FINE, JEEZ!", and goes to the correct password page.

This page contains an embedded [[YouTube]] video of [[Talkin' Strong Bad Plush Doll Recording Sesh]]. At the bottom of the page, there are three GIFs of the bottom of a [[Powered by The Cheat]]-esque Strong Bad's face (with a human mouth, [[green tongue]], and chin dimple) saying "Secret [[style]]s" in yellow text, followed by a shushing gesture with a long-nailed human hand.

==Fun Facts==
*The custom mouse cursor seen on the page is a colored version of that seen in [[Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque]] when mousing over interactable objects.
*The URL for the "correct password" page includes the [[wikipedia:SHA-1|SHA-1]] hex hash of the password "C0LD0NE5".
*The error message of "Try Hard 2: Try Harder" is a reference to the film ''[[Wikipedia:Die Hard 2|Die Hard 2]]'', which was marketed with the tagline "Die Harder". When released on home video, it was used as a subtitle in some markets.

Strong Bad's Website

AlexTCY — Sat, 12 Dec 2020 22:04:02 GMT

AlexTCY: They do not. The Fire and Hot gifs are two separate yet very similar gifs.

{{uncattoonnav|cheatintro.swf|view}}
[[Image:Strong_Bads_Website.png|thumb|right|220px|Frames upon frames]]

'''[[Strong Bad|Strong Bad's]] Website''' is a website (found on [[homestarrunner.com]]) about [[The Cheat]]. It was first seen in the email [[website]] as an example of website design and content fundamentals. It sports a long Flash intro and lots of animated GIFs.

'''Page Title (With frames)''': WELCOME TO YOUR DOOM!! 
'''Page Title (Without frames)''': Total Grodal

== Strong Bad's Long Flash Intro ==

''{A picture of The Cheat and the word "presents" on a black background appear, followed by two green, bean-shaped eyes. Strong Bad makes drum-like sound effects in the background. The eyes fade and the letters "SB" appear. "Strong" and "Bad" are inside each letter. Strong Bad starts mimicking a guitar. The "S" and "B" turn into "The Web" in cursive. "The Web" turns into "Welcomes 'u' '2'", the letters made of only horizontal and vertical lines. The words "strong bad's cybersite" appear in red below "Welcomes 'u' '2'". A rainbow circle about 3/4 the size of the "2" comes and rolls in, stopping at the quotation mark before the "2". The word "cybersite" turns into rainbow colors. The words exit and something like a black hole appears. A hand appears to punch you, and after it does, the word "OUCH!" appears above it. The words "Get on in!" appear in a long button. The words can be clicked to get to Strong Bad's Website.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, I'm not sure about the quality of this microphone, The Cheat.

== House of the Brothers Chaps==
[[Image:cheatcouch.jpg|thumb|right|220px|The Cheat on the couch]]
[[Image:cheatfridge.jpg|thumb|right|220px|That hunk of foil]]
The pictures of The Cheat are photos of [[The Brothers Chaps]]' house at the time with The Cheat added in later. The couch seen here is the same couch that appears in the [[Pulse Interview - 1 Aug 2003|August 1, 2003 Pulse Interview]]. The brick wall seen in [[HR:sbsite/cheatwindow.jpg|this image]] follows the same brick pattern seen in the [[The Cheatar]] short.

===Contents of the fridge===
*Top shelf in the door (left to right):
**Mt. Olive [[pickles]]
**Three jars Smuckers jam
**Two unknown jars
*Bottom shelf in the door (left to right):
**two unknown containers
**Salsa (with yellow cap)
**Hellmann's mayonnaise
**Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce

*Strewn about on the floor:

**Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad dressing
*To the left of the fridge:
** Some [[Cold One]]s (Miller brand)

==Easter Eggs==
* Click on the mouse with the email to go to the [[Email Processing Room]].
* At the very bottom of Strong Bad's page there is an "F10" button which links to [[Strong Sad's Lament]].

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*The picture on the site titled "long haired freaky cheat" will never load, because the image is directed to the file "oh, just nothing" in the source.

===Trivia===
*Clicking the button that says "ENTER" will reload the same website, and because it uses frames so poorly, the website will reload inside one of its own frames.
*The doubled rotating GIF about halfway down the page reads "World Wide Wed".
*The GIF with the silver diamond reads "Hi Rez", which is most likely referring to the term "high resolution".
*The title of the page used for the "A" animation frame is "A!!!".
*The counter, a static GIF image, always reads "You're the <big>000016</big>th biggest moron, ever."

===Remarks===

*The picture titled "long haired freaky cheat" is one of the few times when The Cheat is not referred to with the [[integral article]].
*If using [[Wikipedia:Safari (web browser)|Safari]], you cannot hear "Welcome to your doom!" if you do not have [[Wikipedia:Apple Quicktime|Apple Quicktime]].

===Inside References===

*The animated GIF refers to the World Wide [[Wed]].

===Real-World References===
*"Long haired freaky cheat" is a reference to lyrics "Long haired freaky people" from the song "[[Wikipedia:Signs (Five Man Electrical Band song)|Signs]]" by the [[Wikipedia:Five Man Electrical Band|Five Man Electrical Band]].
*"Welcome to your doom!" is from the [[Wikipedia:Sega Genesis|Sega Genesis]] version of ''[[Wikipedia:Altered Beast|Altered Beast]]''.
*The intro song that Strong Bad mumbles is the riff to "Bored" by Death Angel.
*This site is a parody of many very poorly executed and ultimately pointless websites that used to be common on free webservers like [[Wikipedia:Tripod.com|Tripod]] and [[Wikipedia:Geocities|Geocities]].

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Nice flaming Peasant Costume! Those are some quality doing-sproings on your flaming robe too!

''{Scene cuts to Peasant's Quest at the old man inn.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover as he types in the command}'' Get doing-sproings from old man.

''{The game pops-up with a message "That's the worst thing anyone has ever tried to type into this game. Ever."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' What?!

''{The game then cuts to the game over screen. Afterwards, the scene cuts back to the basement. The next slide shows a person in a muscular Strong Bad costume. He's sitting next to a laptop with "Lappier" seen on the screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Somebody finally got it right! I don't know where you found another biological pair of + #1 All-Pro Panache boxing gloves! But the real kicker is that you dressed up as me on January 7th! ''{The data "01-07-2015" appears on the bottom left corner of the picture}'' That's the day every year where I cover my arms and abdomen ''{A bag of brown-colored Fluffy Puff marshmallows descends from the top of the screen}'' in expired seasonal Fluffy Puffs!

''{Zoom in on the costume's left shoulder. Marshie's face appears on the costume.}''

'''MARSHIE:''' Open up your pores, and let me into your heart! Literally! Clog 'em up, clog 'em up, clog 'em up, y'all!

''{The King of Town pops into frame, silhouetted.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' I'll do it! I volunteer!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Get outta here!

''{The King of Town descends. The next slide shows four people dressed as the 4 Gregs, in front of poorly-drawn bleachers drawn on hexagonal grid paper.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Now ''these'', are very accurate.

It's-a Marzipan, and she's got yellow hair." While he's in the locker room, he rambles, "Wherefore art thou, Marzipan?" (though this was improper usage of wherefore).

Floppy Disk Container

AlexTCY — Thu, 05 Apr 2018 20:09:01 GMT

AlexTCY:

'''The Floppy Disk Container''' sits on the right of [[Strong Bad]]'s computer desk and shows the latest program that he's been running. [[The Brothers Chaps]] sometimes comment on the featured game in their [[strongbad_email.exe|DVD]] commentaries. This page catalogs the appearances of the Floppy Disk Container. Each section has a screenshot, the name of the toon(s) or email(s) in which it appeared, a brief explanation of the game mentioned on the floppy disk, and sources of supplementary material about said game. The majority of the labels are names of computer games (although several [[Nintendo|Nintendo Entertainment System]] and [[Atari 2600]] titles also appear) and most are obscure titles from the '80s. Strong Bad also [[Couch Mumbling|mumbles]] SNES games in his sleep, but these are generally newer and less obscure. This has become a running joke, and although the first Floppy Disk Container appeared in the email [[little animal]], the disks were not labeled until [[ghosts]]. They are usually labeled in red marker, though in some of the early appearances they were labeled in blue.

They were replaced by 3.5 inch floppies in the early 1990s, which have since been mostly replaced by compact discs and USB flash drives. The first floppy-less personal computers were made by NeXT, and many modern computers replace the floppy drive with an 8-in-one memory card reader. The 5.25 floppy disk was also featured in [[technology]], outside of the Floppy Disk Container. || [[Wikipedia:Floppy disk|Wikipedia]] [http://computer.howstuffworks.com/floppy-disk-drive1.htm Howstuffworks] [http://www.accurite.com/FloppyPrimer.html Accurite.com]
