Blu Aardvark: /**/Is it just me...

==Sbenav==
<s>I can't get the navboxes in hremail3184 and some kinda robot to link to here. Help? {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:03, 13 July 2009 (UTC)</s>
Never mind. I figured it out.

==Strong Mad==
What should we call him? Young Strong Mad, as the transcript calls him, or Teen Strong Mad, as his article calls him? {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:32, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
:He seems to be very similar to his [[teenage variation]], called Teenage Strong Mad, from [[highschool]]. Perhaps he's the same variation. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 13:49, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
::However, the differences are subtle but important. I say we continue to call him Teen Strong Mad. {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 15:47, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
:::I don't know, I think they are the same, and the differences can be accounted for by Strong Bad's "doodle" memory. [[Special:Contributions/66.29.169.1|66.29.169.1]] 16:50, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
::::Maybe it was meant to be the same version, but the small variations are just something the Chaps put in because it's newer. I even spotted some minor changes in young strong bad and strong sad's look, also. [[User:origonalname]]

== Strong Bad annoys himself? ==

I listened to it a dozen times and while Strong Bad is drilling into the brick after talking about other imaginary friends it sounds like he says "Strong Bad and Scotty titi..." instead of "Strong Sad and Scotty titi...". Am I just crazy? {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 13:31, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
: <strike>Yes, yes you are. And I mean this is the maybe-nicest way I can put it.</strike> Oh my crap! You're right. I was listening for what I thought was the next likely word, not for what was actually said. Sorry, man. Guess ''I'm'' crazy.--[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 13:37, 13 July 2009 (UTC) UPDATE --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 12:04, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
:: It's ridiculous, and it's also exactly what I hear. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:09, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
::: I hear Strong Bad to [[Special:Contributions/99.239.22.106|99.239.22.106]] 18:14, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
::::I hear "Strong Bad" as well. Weird. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 18:22, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::It's definitely Strong Bad. I didn't even have to turn up the volume fully. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:25, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
::Whew. I'm glad I'm not that crazy. ;) {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 00:22, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:::Yeah, Matt definitely made a stnank. It wouldn't be the [[environment|first time]] TBC made a goof that was quite so noticeable. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:33, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
::::This time it's Matt's fault though :p {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 00:41, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
::Oh yeah. Now that I'm thinking about it again, who's the "us" that he and Scotty Titi annoy? I thought he was only talking about himself. {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 01:16, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
:::"I say he annoyed us, but it was really just me. Strong Mad was going through some... ahem... changes in those days." {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:19, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

== Cosistency? ==
Am I the only one who knows for a fact that Trogdor didn't exist in the time of Lil' Stro Bro? Seems retconned to me. Inconsistency, anyone? --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 13:37, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
:Perhaps Trogdor used to exist in Lil' Strong Bad's mind until [[dragon]], during which he drew him onto paper (albiet requiring a second attempt). Many cartoonists think up ideas for new characters years before they actually drawn the initial concept sketches. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 13:49, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Didnt Strong Mad have a Trogdor poster in this email?

This is probably a stupid thought, but since it doesn't actually ''say'' TROGDOR on the poster in Strong Mad's room, (it says PUBERTY) perhaps Strong Bad ripped off Trogdor from that dragon? Or maybe subconciously drew the same thing based off his childhood memory of it? I know, kind of far fetched. --[[Special:Contributions/76.248.84.243|76.248.84.243]] 15:43, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
: The imagination version was a half man, half dragon. i think it was just something not well though through by the Chaps. [[User:origonalname]]]

== Owies! ==
Gron Sad has a patch over his "Belly Button". Is this because he had a hole drilled there in [[origins]]? That's the only reason I see, and that was my first reaction. --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 13:37, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
:You are correct, Sir. It seems TBC were fortunate enough to remember this important fact. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 13:49, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
:At least they remembered one fact. [[User:origonalname]]

== Hyphen-have? ==

This e-mail features the word "friend-have". It somewhat reminds me of "[[Coach Z's 110%|VCR-have]]". Is that notable yet? [[Special:Contributions/99.142.19.40|99.142.19.40]] 15:27, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
:If you're suggesting that this could be a new running gag in the form of [[X-have]], we'll need to find a few more examples before we can create the article. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 15:29, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
::It seems like "sense-make" falls into this same pattern. Dunno what to call it though, but i'm sure there are plenty of others. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 15:31, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
:::Cherry get! {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 15:33, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
::::Gunhaver? [[User:Havl|Havl]] 15:58, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

::::::Nah, the "haver" ones don't really fit, however "cherry get" is a good one. The pattern seems to be when using "noun-verb" as a noun, thous "using 'noun-verb' as a noun" isn't a very good page title... maybe just "noun-verb"? {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:20, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::::The cherry get is a separate joke, though. It's very clearly an engrish reference. -[[Special:Contributions/132.183.138.174|132.183.138.174]] 00:37, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
::::::::[[2 Part Episode: Part 1|''Have''-gun]]? {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 20:20, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

== Imaginary Friends ==
Should we make articles for all the minor ones, or just group them together somehow? [[Imaginary Friends]] page? {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 15:57, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

== too much "we" ==

I noticed there are two sentences in the script which need rewording: "We pans down to Lil' Strong Bad"''[/sic]'' and "We pan down again to reveal a piece of bread on a blue plate with two pickle slice". Would the correct form for those be "Pan down to (...)" or how should that be rephrased? I wanted to reword it myself, but I didn't really know what would be better. --[[User:Cass from Germany|Cass from Germany]] 17:36, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
:Sorry, that was me who put those "we"s in there. You can go ahead and remove them if it sounds better without them. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 17:38, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

==Titi on Scotty Titi==
This is a reference to peeing.
: I think that's what the joke was implied to be. I'm going to add it to this email's and the peeing article. The main reason I say so is his lower body isn't shown and he exclaims "Oh no! My new boots!". Also titi/peepee. Kind of rhymes, and Strong Bad seems to say "titi" as if that wasn't what he really meant.--[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 01:32, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
:: Is it possible that Strong Bad says: "Titi, on Scotty ''P''ti?" Does anyone else hear this? --[[User:Rotanagol|Rotanagol]] 14:43, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

== Strong Sad being very content... ==

He seems to be smiling QUITE a lot in this flashback. Is that noteworthy for the "Strong Sad Smiling" article, since the "Secrets That I Keep" stuff is noteworthy?
:Maybe the reason is because he has a friend. He never has any friends in the modern times, which could be why he's so depressed. [[User:origonalname]]

== Old Field? ==

Is it worth mentioning that in the flashback with Lil Strong Bad drilling a hole in a brick at the Stick, the bushes in the background are in their original "half circle" style?--[[Special:Contributions/24.34.9.24|24.34.9.24]] 04:31, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

== I said consummate v's! ==
Does Lil Strong Bad's T-Shirt have the dragon design that Coach Z drew?
:Hey, it IS Wormdingler! it looks like those cartoony drawings they make for kids t-shirts. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:18, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
::It is '''not''' Wormdingler. It has legs. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 23:50, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

== King Sad? ==

Is it just me, or do the bandages on Strong Sad's belly look like the ones on King Hippo (from Punch-Out!)? {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 22:32, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
:Both are examples of stereotypical cartoon bandages though, and we all remember how SS got his belly button... {{User:Strongkinghomsarsmith/sig}} 22:37, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
::True, and yet the location and styling seem too uncannily similar, and it wouldn't be the [[montage|first Punch-Out reference]]... {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 23:37, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
:::It's clearly a reference to [[origins]], and not necessarily a reference to King Hippo at all. I say stick with the reference we know over the reference we don't. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 23:50, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
::::That doesn't mean it couldn't be both at once, though. If it were just a reference to origins, it could easily have been a regular band-aid type bandage (like, tan with brown sides) rather than a cartoony, X-shaped white tape one. Just a thought. -[[Special:Contributions/132.183.138.174|132.183.138.174]] 16:31, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::I still think that it's not a reference to king hippo's bandage, but to bandages them selves. sure they didn't use a bandage, but do they have to? I say no reference. [[User:origonalname]]

== Hey! ==
Strong Sad has Homsar as a friend, then again, Strong Bad hates Homsar almost as much as Strong Sad, so that's why Homsar wasn't mentioned as a friend.
:This is great for the forum. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:47, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
::It's easier to post here. it also occurs to me that Scotty Titi has somewhat of a bowler hat.....
:::Sorry, being easier to post here doesn't make it acceptable. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:33, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

== E. mail? ==

I'm all for correct grammar and punctuation, but since we have used the spelling "email" everywhere else on the site, should we really start spelling it "E. mail?"--[[User:Rotanagol|Rotanagol]] 18:18, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:No, that's not how we do it. I've reverted it, along with a few other things the annony did that aren't the way we do stuff here. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 18:22, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
::"E. mail" is simply wrong, period. The proper spelling is "e-mail", with a hyphen, but that's clearly not how Strong Bad spells it, so we don't either. Also, the anonny who made those edits is a vandal we've seen before (he always tries to make words more awkwardly complex - "Interior References", which is a completely meaningless term, is his giveaway.) Unfortunately, he has a dynamic IP address and rarely makes more than two or three edits at a time, so it's hard to do much about it. (Besides revert, revert, revert, I mean.) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:55, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:::Noted. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 18:57, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
::::Also, ''e-mail'' is losing currency to ''email'' every day, and already looks as quaint as ''to-day'' and ''per-cent''. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 19:06, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::Well, no, "e-mail" will never become as quaint as terms that, if they even ever existed at all, are older than the ''concept'' of e-mails. ;) Of course, there should be no question here, when Strong Bad himself consistently calls them "emails". But even if you think "e-mail" looks antiquated - I disagree - it's a far cry better than "E. mail", to say nothing of "game-play" or "wall-paper", which just look stu-pid. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:16, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
::::::A-greed. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 19:22, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::::What does this have to do with this Email? Better for forums probably. [[User:origonalname]]
::::::::This has to do with page content, which is EXACTLY what the talk pages here are for. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:40, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

== Last!?! ==

Email 200 was meant to be the last email. then they had Hremail 3184, which was some how a sbemail. Now they have a 202? Why do the chaps keep changing there minds?
:(continued from my post in the previous thread) THIS, however, it speculation about TBC's motives and is unrelated to page content. Posts like these are better for the forum, not the other way around. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:40, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
::But since this thread is here anyway, it should be noted that it was heavily implied that TBC never seriously intended to stop sbemails after #200 (though they did end up taking an extended hiatus). -[[Special:Contributions/132.183.138.174|132.183.138.174]] 00:58, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

== Wisconsin References? ==

This troper-- er, editor-- is from Wisconsin and I couldn't help but think "Deer. Steer. Beer." was a big reference to Wisconsin.

DEER
-John Deere, a large part of the tractor business.
-Very common wildlife.

STEER
-Bovine; Wisconsin is known for them.

BEER
-Wisconsin is known for this as well, being a very German state. It narrowly missed ending up as our state drink (losing to milk).
:That sounds like too much of a stretch. There are plenty of places known for deer, cows, and alcohol.--[[Special:Contributions/66.29.169.1|66.29.169.1]] 15:41, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
::Besides, he says "Streer". --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:13, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
::The e-mail was from Wisconsin, though. I'd let "streer" go, though.

== Is it just me... ==

Or does Scotty Titi bear a remarkable resemblance to Homsar? --[[User:Blu Aardvark|Blu Aardvark]] [[user talk:Blu Aardvark|(talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Blu Aardvark|(edits)]] 06:47, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

''Roomisodic gaming makes its debut with Strong Bad's secret detective-for-hire action hero: Dangeresque! Point and Click your way to adventure but don't forget the Arrow Keys!'' — [[Videlectrix]]

'''Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque''' is a [[Videlectrix]] adventure game in the style of old [[Wikipedia:LucasArts adventure games|LucasArts adventure games]]. The player must help Dangeresque solve a case without leaving [[Smoky Office|his office]].

'''Cast:''' [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]], [[Renaldo]], [[The Chief]], {{film|Pom Pom}}, {{film|Strong Sad}}

'''Date:''' Monday, December 1, 2008

'''Page Title:''' Dangeresque - Roomisode 1: Behind The Dangerdesque

==Ways to Lose the Game==
All Game Overs have the same "go to jail" ending.
*Use the door 3 times
*Talk to the door 3 times
*Use the coffee with the case file
*Use Dragon-Man takeout with the case file
*Miss with the inked UNSOLVED stamp on the case file

==Fun Facts==

===Remarks===
*When Pom Pom unsticks the take-out food, Japanese letters flash briefly, despite the fact that the food and kung-fu martial arts are Chinese.
**The characters are [[wikipedia:katakana|katakana]], and spell "Kikku", or basically "Kick!"
*After collecting the photographic evidence, when the camera is used on an item in the room Dangeresque says he won't take another picture because he's "only gots one instant shot left," but when the camera is used on the window he says he's "outta film."
*The backgrounds, particularly the clouds at the end of the game, are very reminiscent of [[wikipedia:Day of the Tentacle|Day of the Tentacle]].
*Strong Bad does not look as short next to The Chief as he does next to the people in the "Behind The Bad" shorts.
*The only time you need to manually move Strong Bad is if he's on the opposite of the desk.

===Fixed Goofs===
*The Videlectrix main page initially linked to [[HR:roomisode1.html|roomisode1.html]] upon release. This was fixed within a few minutes.
*Looking at the rug when the glowing ink is visible would previously earn points each time attempted.
*Looking at or using the take-out before having it dislodged could also be repeated for additional points.
*Placing the whoozit last would prevent the player from finishing the game.
*If you inked the stamp, then pounded the desk again, another stamp would appear in the drawer.
*Placing the inked rubber stamp in the window and then closing the desk drawer used to make the stamp disappear. Reopening the drawer then made it reappear. Attempting to retrieve the stamp replayed the stamp-getting sequence. (The stamp did not reappear on the window sill until re-inked.) This caused two stamps (one inked, one dry) in the inventory at once. These actions also earned points each time they were completed, thus one was able to achieve a score over 170. However, once placed and disappeared, the blinds could not be closed again and Strong Bad was also unable to put anything new on the window sill.

===Glitches===
*The safe-combination note is semi-transparent and in front of Dangeresque, so when walking over the safe-combination note, its color changes to whatever color is behind it.
*While using the numpad to move, sometimes moving diagonally will make Strong Bad walk backwards.
*After spinning the chair the first time and uncovering the business card, the card appears briefly a second time as Strong Bad is hopping off the chair. This does not happen in subsequent chair spins.
*If you use the takeout package with the blinds, but Strong Bad is not near the window at the time, Strong Bad will reach into the air in his current location, and the takeout will magically appear on the windowsill. If you do the same with other inventory items or open/close the blinds when you are not near the window, Strong Bad will walk over to the window before this animation occurs.
*If you keep repeatedly clicking to use the un-solved stamp on the case file it will cause the animation to glitch and reset and can even cause the file to become marked solved with the stamp mark in the center of the page
*You can walk Dangeresque into the desk if you walk up into it near the bottom-left corner.

===Inside References===
*[[Puking|Upchuck]] is called "whoozit", which is similar to how crap is called "[[whatsit]]".
*One of the "Game Over" screens in the game says "[[Seriously]] though".
*When Strong Bad gets off the chair the first time, he says "feelin' woozy", like Strong Sad did in [[caffeine]].
*If Strong Bad stamps the casefile as UN-SOLVED, he remarks "This does not look good for Dangeresque", which is similar to Homestar's line in [[50 emails]]

===Real-World References===
*When using the phone, Strong Bad says "We're sending help immediately, Mrs. Fletcher!", a reference to the famous [[Wikipedia:I've fallen and I can't get up!|LifeCall commercial]].
*At the start, the Dangeresque logo has sparkles similar to the Lucasarts logo in [[Wikipedia:The Secret Of Monkey Island|The Secret Of Monkey Island]] by Lucasarts and [[Wikipedia:Leisure Suit Larry Goes Looking for Love (in Several Wrong Places)|Leisure Suit Larry 2]] by Sierra.
*You can also use the numpad to move, even diagonally, much like the classic Sierra games.
*The scene with Dangeresque and Renaldo bursting into the room is similar to the intro sequence from [[Wikipedia:Sam & Max Hit The Road|Sam & Max Hit The Road]].
*Dangeresque's office bears some resemblance to Sam & Max's office.
*The background art is reminiscent of the ones in Sierra's VGA adventure games.
*WASD is the popularized setup for modern first person shooter games.
*Using WASD/Arrow Keys and the mouse to interact is a hybrid between text-parser and point'n'click adventure games.
*Dangeresque saying "I need to WASD myself closer" is similar to text-parser adventure games, where you would have to be next to something in order to interact with it.
*Strong Bad going to jail is a reference to game over sequences in Sierra adventure games, this was previously parodied in the [[Wikipedia:Monkey Island Series|Monkey Island]] series.
**The game over screen also has some resemblance to the game over screen in [[Wikipedia:Donkey Kong Country 2|Donkey Kong Country 2]].

Blu Aardvark: /* No more infinite points? */

== Bug in the Game ==

As of approximately 1AM EST 12/1/08, there's a bug in the game that makes it unbeatable. Even after completing all three of the tasks on the case file, Strong Bad still won't pick up the case file from the bulletin board. In addition, I currently have 185/170 points. --[[User:Pixelated|Pixelated]] 05:59, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:Yep, I've found that myself. If you go over the score limit, you can't get the file. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 06:00, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
::I don't know if they've fixed it, but I had no problem getting the file with 175 points. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 06:36, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:::On closer inspection, I'm wondering if the bug is simply in the order the evidence is placed in the folder. If you don't do the stamp last, it doesn't finish. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 11:42, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
::::I did the stamp first. Worked just fine.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 11:44, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::I stamped, then did the photo then the vomit and grabbed the 2nd rubber stamp. Won't let me finish :( --[[Special:Contributions/58.28.153.121|58.28.153.121]] 11:46, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
::::::Found it - it stalls if you give it the bag of whoozit last. Ending with the photo or the stamp works fine. And I'm getting kinda tired of playing the game over and over again. =) --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 11:53, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::::On the same note, it doesn't matter how many points you have. First playthrough I put the bag of upchuck last and the game continued even though I had exactly 170 points. [[Special:Contributions/145.99.155.53|145.99.155.53]] 13:41, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::::: I did the whoozit last. And I had 185 points. Worked just fine. It may be that they fixed it, but it worked for me. I did it at 6:00 PM. Maybe they fixed it.
:::::::::Looking at the Flash file in Firefox, it said the game was last modified "Mon, Dec 1, 2008 6:09:27 PM", so the Brothers Chaps must have fixed something in the game since it came out. {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 02:15, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::: Good. It has been moved to the fixed goof section, so we don't need to worry about that anymore. -Philip8o
:::::::::::Has anyone else had to restart after being unable to move anywhere but left or right between the desk & the chair after checking out & file & moving down?

== Japanese Characters? ==
A friend of mine just verified that they are Katakana. Thanks, Tess!

*As Far as I'm concerned, the katakana onomatopoeia that shows up is "KIKKU"(kick)
-[[Special:Contributions/70.244.251.1|70.244.251.1]] 21:20, 1 December 2008 (UTC) (Everybody! forgot to sign in again |3)

== Inspiration? ==

This reminds me of Sam & Max Hit the Road, & not just the opening scene. Anyone else think so?
:No. It just reminda me of the generic gumshoe genre in general. Heh, aliteration. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 07:56, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

== Renaldo? ==

Maybe I'm just missing something... but where exactly in the game does [[Renaldo]] appear? He's in the cast list, but I just don't remember seeing him or there being any obvious lines from him. (Note that one line, namely "Hey! Don't discount my gams! I'm on the stairmaster all the time!" sounds very much like a Coach Z-ism, rather than something The Chief, WHO SPEAKS IN ALL CAPS OTHERWISE, would say, but this is just speculation on my part.) -{{User:YK/sig}} 07:52, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
:He's in the opening cutscene. You'll only see him if you don't click the mouse button before the title comes up. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 07:55, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
::Ahh, I see now. Thanks. -{{User:YK/sig}} 07:58, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

== Movement stickiness ==
Anyone else notice movement stickiness when you hold down a direction? This issue was in Hugo's House of Horrors and I think Monkey Island, both being similar games to this. Coincidence?
:Probably not. It's fairly common in parser-based games, or games using the keyboard to navigate. Hitting a direction key starts the character moving in that direction, hitting it again causes the character to stop. Holding it causes the character to alternate between moving and halting, causing stickiness. I don't think it's a reference as much as it's just the way that these types of games work. It's not exclusive to Monkey Island or Hugo's House of Horrors or anything; you can observe it in King's Quest and a number of other games. --[[User:Blu Aardvark|Blu Aardvark]] [[user talk:Blu Aardvark|(talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Blu Aardvark|(edits)]] 11:42, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
::'''Edit conflict:''' Likely a coincidence. It works the same in [[Peasant's Quest]] — your character moves with a single press of the button, and continues without you having to do anything. Basically, holding the key sends the "move in said direction" command multiple times, resulting in the so-called "stickiness". --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 11:44, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

== Yet another bug. ==

Okay, this what happened. I stamped the casefile so the "s" in solved was cut off. The game went to the jail ending. Then, when I redo it, Dangeresque says the case has already been solved. What's up wit dat? Didn't I win, technically?--[[User:Not Dennis|ND]] 21:02, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

== Loading... ==

All I've got is a loading screen. {{User:The thing/sig}} 21:16, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

:The same thing happened to me. Just try using the flash file (.swf). Still, does anyone know why this happened? - [[User:Jezzamon|Jezzamon]] 06:18, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

== Jay ==

Would it be worth noting somwhere on here that this was featured at Jayisgames?
http://jayisgames.com/archives/2008/12/dangeresque_roomisode_1_behind_the_dangerdesque.php

maybe, like on the sightings page or something.

It wouldn't be the first time they've featured homestar content, having also done thy dungeon man 3 and peasant's quest.

== No more infinite points? ==

I tried the glitch where you get infinite points, but it didn't work... so have they removed the glitch, or is it something at my end? - [[User:Jezzamon|Jezzamon]] 06:24, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
*Yes, it does seem like they fixed this glitch. Apparently, it involved the game generating a new dry stamp if you, for some reason, no longer had one in your inventory - and inking the stamp effectively took it out of your inventory. --[[User:Blu Aardvark|Blu Aardvark]] [[user talk:Blu Aardvark|(talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Blu Aardvark|(edits)]] 08:23, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

== Bug in the Game ==

As of approximately 1AM EST 12/1/08, there's a bug in the game that makes it unbeatable. Even after completing all three of the tasks on the case file, Strong Bad still won't pick up the case file from the bulletin board. In addition, I currently have 185/170 points. --[[User:Pixelated|Pixelated]] 05:59, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:Yep, I've found that myself. If you go over the score limit, you can't get the file. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 06:00, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
::I don't know if they've fixed it, but I had no problem getting the file with 175 points. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 06:36, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:::On closer inspection, I'm wondering if the bug is simply in the order the evidence is placed in the folder. If you don't do the stamp last, it doesn't finish. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 11:42, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
::::I did the stamp first. Worked just fine.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 11:44, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::I stamped, then did the photo then the vomit and grabbed the 2nd rubber stamp. Won't let me finish :( --[[Special:Contributions/58.28.153.121|58.28.153.121]] 11:46, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
::::::Found it - it stalls if you give it the bag of whoozit last. Ending with the photo or the stamp works fine. And I'm getting kinda tired of playing the game over and over again. =) --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 11:53, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::::On the same note, it doesn't matter how many points you have. First playthrough I put the bag of upchuck last and the game continued even though I had exactly 170 points. [[Special:Contributions/145.99.155.53|145.99.155.53]] 13:41, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::::: I did the whoozit last. And I had 185 points. Worked just fine. It may be that they fixed it, but it worked for me. I did it at 6:00 PM. Maybe they fixed it.
:::::::::Looking at the Flash file in Firefox, it said the game was last modified "Mon, Dec 1, 2008 6:09:27 PM", so the Brothers Chaps must have fixed something in the game since it came out. {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 02:15, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::: Good. It has been moved to the fixed goof section, so we don't need to worry about that anymore. -Philip8o

A friend of mine just verified that they are Katakana. Thanks, Tess!

This reminds me of Sam & Max Hit the Road, & not just the opening scene. Anyone else think so?
:No. It just reminda me of the generic gumshoe genre in general. Heh, aliteration. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 07:56, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

== Renaldo? ==

Maybe I'm just missing something... but where exactly in the game does [[Renaldo]] appear? He's in the cast list, but I just don't remember seeing him or there being any obvious lines from him. (Note that one line, namely "Hey! Don't discount my gams! I'm on the stairmaster all the time!" sounds very much like a Coach Z-ism, rather than something The Chief, WHO SPEAKS IN ALL CAPS OTHERWISE, would say, but this is just speculation on my part.) -{{User:YK/sig}} 07:52, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
:He's in the opening cutscene. You'll only see him if you don't click the mouse button before the title comes up. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 07:55, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
::Ahh, I see now. Thanks. -{{User:YK/sig}} 07:58, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

== Movement stickiness ==
Anyone else notice movement stickiness when you hold down a direction? This issue was in Hugo's House of Horrors and I think Monkey Island, both being similar games to this. Coincidence?
*Probably not. It's fairly common in parser-based games, or games using the keyboard to navigate. Hitting a direction key starts the character moving in that direction, hitting it again causes the character to stop. Holding it causes the character to alternate between moving and halting, causing stickiness. I don't think it's a reference as much as it's just the way that these types of games work.

The [[Tandy 400]] is back from the accident in [[gimmicks]]. This time, Ali and her sister tell Strong Bad that they think he is cute, but the computer appears to be still malfunctioning and the email gets...[[DELETED]]!!

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' {{Film|Strong Bad}}

'''Places:''' [[Computer Room]]

'''Computer:''' [[Tandy 400]]

'''Date:''' Monday, July 8, 2002

'''Running Time:''' 1:40

'''Page Title:''' Tandy 400: The Big Comeback!!

{{dvd|strongbad_email.exe Disc One}}

== Transcript ==

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah, the old girl's working again. What do you got for me?

<blockquote class="tandy email">Strong Bad, 
My sister and me think you are so cool. 
Do you have a girlfriend? There is two of us. 
Yours, 
Ali</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{after half a second stunned silence...}'' Ohh, there's two of them! ''{typing; speaking seductively}'' Well, Ali. There's ''one'' of me...

<blockquote class="email" style="background:#0C0;color:#000;text-align:center">DELETED!!</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{seductively; no break in tone of voice}'' A—deleted... ''{shocked}'' DELETED?! What?! Oy, what happened? No! Undeleted! Undeleted!

''{Strong Bad repeatedly hits the keyboard, resulting in "undeleted" 3 times, then "do something" and "anything!"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I didn't mean to do that! Awwww, man!!! ''{wailing}'' Come back, Ali! Come back, Ali's sister! You two meant everything to me!

''{Strong Bad hits his head on the keyboard 3 times during the last sentence, resulting in "head", "hit" and "keyboard"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, calm down. Maybe she'll email me again. ''{clears screen}'' I'll just... hang out here for a while and try to picture which one of them is hotter. Ali or Ali's sister.

''{"Thought bubbles" appear, showing Ali as a blonde and her sister as brunette}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ali... Ali's sister... Ali... Ali's sister...

''{The Tandy dings and displays "You have 1 new e-mail"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, there she is! Okay, here we go.

''{reading slowly}''

<blockquote class="short tandy email">hello, 
I am write single to salute and wait 
for answer again</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' What? ''{typing}'' You're not Ali. You're not even literate. Oh! Though, I have just the thing for you... DELETED!

<blockquote class="email" style="background:#0C0;color:#000;text-align:center">SAVED!!</blockquote>

'' {The Tandy dings again and displays "message saved. forever."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, that's great. Great, thank you. Yeah, go ahead and save that one, why don't you, yeah. So I can treasure it for years and years, and show it to my kids. The ones I ''should'' be having with Ali and Ali's sister! ''{hangs his head}'' I hate this computer.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*When the pictures of the sisters appear, you can click on them to have Strong Bad imagine two different variations.

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
*When this email was first released, Strong Bad's head typed, "bam—bam—bigalow", the name of a [http://www.wrestlinginformer.net/bam_bam_bigelow.htm professional wrestler], albeit misspelled. This was later changed to the current, "head—hit—keyboard". The reason for the change is unknown.
*When Strong Bad is imagining which girl is hotter, the cracks on the monitor over-lap the words ''and'' his imagination.

===Remarks===
*Strong Bad says that he "hate[s] this computer," which is contrary to his statement in [[gimmicks]] that he "liked that computer".
*Strong Bad does not comment on the sentence "My sister and me think you are so cool." Grammatically speaking, it should be "My sister and I think you are so cool."
**Neither does he comment on "There is two of us." which should read, "There are two of us."

===Glitches===
*The green lines on the Tandy go through Strong Bad's head.

===Real-World References===
*The first images of Ali and her sister are taken from the first [[Wikipedia:Leisure Suit Larry|Leisure Suit Larry]] game, ''Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards''. The additional images seen in the Easter egg are from the second game in the series, ''Leisure Suit Larry Goes Looking for Love (in Several Wrong Places)''.

===Fast Forward===
*In [[personal favorites]], the [[Grape-Nuts Robot]] says "Come back, [[Ali and Ali's Sister|Ali]]. Come back, Ali's sister."
*In [[do over]], Strong Bad imagines how he would correct the "stnank" he commits in this email. He also names Ali's sister "Ali Jr."

== DVD Version ==
*In the DVD version, the Ali/Ali's sister Easter egg is implemented differently. If you hit "Angle," when Strong Bad thinks of each girl, the image changes, similar to how clicking on them changed them in the original email.

'''STRONG BAD:''' What is this? Did the quadratic formula explode? I see a "Strong ba" in there, but it's getting eaten... by some... Linux or something. Wait a minute! Is this one of those ''virus'' emails?! Like the kind that moms and offshore casinos send you?!? I'll take care of this!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Computer over? Virus equals very yes?! That's not a good prize!

''{The text and background on the Compy 386 screen melts off and slides onto the floor.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh!

''{Strong Bad jumps out of the way. The camera zooms out to a view of the computer desk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And the Compy... just peed my carpet.

''{The corner of the computer desk briefly flashes, showing an underlying gridwork to it. The No Loafing sign becomes the following pseudo-HTML code and falls off the wall.}''

''{The Floppy Disk Container gets eaten by the computer desk. Strong Sad walks in, but his head is floating a foot to the left of where it should be and has been replaced by his emoticons from [[Strong Sad's Lament]].}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{sounding annoyed}'' Strong Bad, what is going on?

'''STRONG BAD:''' WAH! I dunno! You forgot to wear your neck?

'''STRONG SAD:''' Have you been using the Internet irresponsibly?

''{The top of a Main Page starts to creep into the top of the email, with the text "Stave it off, 1, 2, 3..." in the corner in place of the "What's new" text.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' No more irresponsibly than usual.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{His lower body starts walking away in place.}'' Did you get a virus?

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{with guilt}'' Uhhh, noo...

'''STRONG SAD:''' Did you get ''four hundred thousand'' viruses?

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{submissive}'' Yes... ''very'' yes!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, hurry up and ''do'' something about it before it gets worse!

''{Strong Sad turns into the Strong Sad [[character card]] and flies up and off the screen. The Main Page at the top of the screen creeps up and out of the email.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{terrified}'' The Cheeeaaat!

''{Strong Bad runs off the screen and into the black to the right of the computer desk and then stops.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What the...? Whoa! ''{shivers}'' It's cold out here.

''{Strong Bad tries to jump back into the room, but the room shifts left, causing him to still fall on blank space.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey!

''{Homestar Runner walks onscreen. His body is Old-Timey Homestar Runner's body, while the rest of him is normal. Instead of his legs moving, he just glides. He leaves a motion trail behind him, producing several ghost images of himself.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Never fear, Strong Bad! I know how to fix your computer box. ''{He turns to the Compy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{stands up}'' No, no, don't touch that!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Your super box needs words. ''{His head falls off and onto the ground.}'' Like these right here! Gotta have this one ''{He picks up "downloads" from the bottom menu.}'' and this one ''{He picks up "games" from the bottom menu.}'' and this-a-this-a-this one. ''{He picks up "characters" from the bottom menu.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{simultaneously}'' No, wait! Stop! That's not supposed to be possible!

''{Suddenly, several pop-up windows appear one after the other (including a real one, unless popup blocking is used), titled "Click on the Monkey!!" They each feature oldschool Homestar who is saying "Making out with Marzipan is totally awesome!" Strong Bad starts screaming and pounds the side of the screen with his fists. Cut to Marzipan's living room. Strong Mad is standing nearby and Marzipan is standing next to a stack of VHS tapes.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, I think it's fantastic, Strong Mad! That's the best stack of VHS tapes I've ever—

''{Marzipan turns into an ASCII art rendering of herself, and her voice becomes extremely deep and distorted, making her words unintelligible.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' I CAN'T SPELL YOU!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{more unintelligible gibberish}''

''{Strong Mad turns into a picture of himself from his [[Yearbook Character Page]], which walks offscreen with Homsar's walking noise. Text appears at the top of the screen reading as follows.}''

<blockquote>

''{Cut to the King of Town's castle. The Poopsmith is standing with his shovel extended and some [[whatsit]] on the end of it, as the King of Town stands nearby.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' A little to the left. ''{The Poopsmith extends the shovel toward the King.}'' Good, good...

''{The scene suddenly changes to a [[Teen Girl Squad]]-style piece of paper, with the text "issue [[Pi|3.14159265and the rest]]" at the top. The Poopsmith is gone.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Ooh! Poopsmith?!

''{The Ugly One appears out of nowhere with the rhino sound from "Strong Bad's RhinoFeeder", and her mouth is huge and distorted.}''

'''THE UGLY ONE:''' I can do it! I can do it ''nine times''!

''{The Ugly One extends her arm and starts slapping the King of Town.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Uh! No! Please! Stop! I'm old! And fat! And rich! And cool!

''{Cut to the Homestar Runner website loading screen, which then slowly wipes to a black screen with the text "It's now safe to turn your computer off." The navbar disappears. Bubs walks on from the side of the screen. His mouth is a broken JPEG (with "TH" as the alt text), his legs are rendered as two overlapping red and blue layers, his midsection is missing, and he's carrying one of Homestar's legs in his left arm. His other arm is continually waving about, as seen on [[Dancin' Bubs]]. It is a bit larger than it should be.}''

'''BUBS:''' I shoulda done this, like, a ''million years'' ago.

''{Cut to The Field, now a cloud scene. The Stick is gone. Strong Bad has one big foot instead of both legs, his black mark is too high, and his head and mouth are lopsided. The Cheat is floating around the screen, interchanging between different versions of himself. A pitch-black Rather Dashing and a colon fly by in the foreground. As Strong Bad talks, his left arm detaches from his body and flies off in random directions.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Using an old version of his voice}'' With Marzipan's radish, we're gonna win the competition...

''{An explosion sound effect is heard, and suddenly everything returns to normal, revealing Strong Bad and The Cheat standing by The Stick.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, he fixed it! That Bubs is a computer genius man! Let's do a dance for the computer genius man.

''{A salsa rhythm starts up, to which Strong Bad and The Cheat start dancing. The camera pans to the left to reveal Bubs holding a shotgun.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, Bubs! How'd you get rid of the vi— ''{salsa music fades away}'' wait... why do you have a shotgun? ''{shaken}'' What did you do?! Where's my Compy?!?

'''BUBS:''' It's in a better place, Strong Bad. Or rather, it's in the same place, but now it's got a big hole through it.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{more shaken than ever}'' YOU MURDERER!! You killed my brother! ''{nearly sobbing}'' I mean, computer!

'''BUBS:''' Look, Strong Bad, ''{zoom in on Bubs}'' my mouth was a broken JPEG. I had no choice.

'''STRONG BAD:''' You don't understand! You ''all'' understand! I mean, don't understand! YAAAUUUGGGHHH!

''{Strong Bad runs off screen, very distraught. The Cheat squeaks, as though he is telling Strong Bad to wait up, and runs after him. Homestar hops onscreen on one leg, holding his other leg up.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Bubs, can I have my leg back now?

''{There is a long pause.}

''{Cut to the Compy 386, which now has a giant hole through its monitor and most of the wall behind it. Strong Bad is sitting in front of it, head bowed.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{hysterical}'' Dear Strong Bad, I doh du duoh crapfully yours. ''{He hits his head on the keyboard a few times.}'' I...ID DOH DU DUOH CRAPFULLY YOURS! I can relate. ''{He hits his head on the keyboard again.}'' I ''can't'' re''late!'' ''{He hits his head on the keyboard again.}'' I'm gonna get, I'm gonna get in there and ''mix'' ''{He hits his head.}'' it up!

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{still very distraught}'' I don't remember your ''names'', Davey! ''{he hits his head on the keyboard again}'' Dear Strong Bad. ''{voice trailing off}'' How do you text with boxing gloves on?

== Easter Eggs ==

*When the Main page is encroaching on the top of the screen, the [[Quote of the Week]] button, [[Sketchbook]] button, [[Weekly Fanstuff]] button, and hidden main page button are all clickable.
**Clicking hidden main page button leads to [[Halloween Fairstival]].
**Clicking the Quote of the Week button makes it bounce around the screen until it gets lodged at the top by its bottom corner. Clicking "Hear it" causes a pixelated broom to scroll vertically along the screen while making a loud distorted noise, and some of the links disappear off the bottom of the screen. Unless the X is pressed, the quote box stays there for the rest of the email. When clicking the "X" to close it, the Quote of the Week box wobbles a bit and then falls off the screen, while the links reappear. When viewing the Flash file, if "Don't TAPE it" is scrolled over, it changes to "Don't TAKE it!".
**Clicking on the Sketchbook leads to a glitched sketchbook box, where the Flash MX color mixer appears. Scrolling over it causes a green X to appear overtop. Clicking it again causes it to close.
**Clicking on Weekly Fanstuff leads to a glitched fanstuff box, where there is a picture of Coach Z upside down with his arms and legs wrapped around a white space in the shape of The King of Town's head. This image is from [[Where's The Cheat?]], when Coach Z attacked The King over a misunderstanding involving The Cheat and [[The King of Town's Grill|a grill]]. The picture has many fractions at the bottom (which are actually the text "sticktoyourbooks" in the font [[Fonts#M|MS Reference Specialty]]). Hovering the cursor over the misspelled "OCⓧSLE" instead of the close botton causes the words 'A BOOK' to appear in green. Clicking on it causes the box to slide to the top and disappear.
*Clicking on the cog on the left at the end of the e-mail shows the shotgunned Compy 386 on sale at [[Bubs' Concession Stand]], with signs reading "Like Used!" and "Slightly Shotgunned!"
*Clicking on the fan on the right shows an excerpt of the original [[Cheat Commandos (toon)|Cheat Commandos]] toon, but with Fightgar using Homestar's leg as a gun.
:'''NARRATOR:''' ...to protect the world from the evil forces of Blue Laser!

== Fun Facts ==
=== Explanations ===
*The [[Wikipedia:Quadratic equation#Quadratic Formula|quadratic formula]] is an algebraic equation used to determine the roots of a [[Wikipedia:Quadratic equation|quadratic equation]].
*The Teen Girl Squad issue number is [[pi]] truncated to 8 decimal places.

=== Trivia ===
*This is the only page on the site that produces a pop-up browser window automatically.
*This is the only email in which the [[HR:main nav.swf|navbar]] and the email are combined into one Flash file (so that Homestar can grab the words). When the [[random toon]] ("rando") and [[Podstar Runner|podcast]] links were added to the navbar and the "[[legal]]" link was shortened from "legal ''stuff''", The Brothers Chaps probably chose not to update this page, as the navbar is animated here, and could be difficult to change after the animation had been completed. This navigation bar was added to the DVD version; however, unlike the DVD version, the [[Podstar Runner]] version of this email did not have the navigation bar at the bottom.
*The broken JPEG icon is used in the Netscape family of web browsers, including [[Netscape|Netscape Navigator]], [[Wikipedia:Mozilla|Mozilla]], and [[Wikipedia:Mozilla Firefox|Mozilla Firefox]].

*The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#spy vs spy|spy vs spy]]".
*On most [[homestarrunner.com]] pages, there are either 16 or 17 XHTML errors that are generated by the <embed> tag. The page for this email, however, only has 14 errors, as there are fewer embedded objects.

=== Remarks ===
[[Image:sbemail118.png|thumb|Ah! That is not a small number! That is a ''big'' number!]]
*Since the navbar is contained in this email's Flash file, it does not appear on the page until the toon has finished loading.
*Edgar the Virus Hunter is said to have been written in 1982, a year before the first documented experimental virus was created, although there are conflicting accounts as to when the first virus was made. The idea of a computer virus is much older, dating at least back to the 1972 science fiction novel, ''[[Wikipedia:When HARLIE Was One|When HARLIE Was One]]''. Even so, it would be very unlikely that any sort of virus scanner would have existed in 1982.
*In 2004, the year of the release of this email, only about [http://www.sophos.com/pressoffice/news/articles/2004/12/pr_uk_20041208yeartopten.html 100,000 known viruses] existed; well under the 423,827 that Edgar reports.
*Strong Bad's head is larger than normal (but not his wrestling mask) while he is talking to Strong Sad. It reverts back to normal when he runs for The Cheat, but then regresses back to the larger head once he enters into the black.
*The letters that make up [[ASCII art]] Marzipan refer to parts of her body: "E" for eyes, "f" for face, "h" for hair, and "d" for dress. Her mouth, however, is a hyphen or an "O".
*Strong Bad says that Edgar from the [[Edgar#Edgarware|Edgarware]] program is his "main man." However, he claims in "[[2 years]]" that his main man "is, and has been since [[1987]], Van Mundegaarde."
*The reason the "making out with Marzipan" pop-up doesn't come up in the .swf, or Flash, version is because the information for the pop-up is stored in the HTML source code. All that the Flash file does is send a JavaScript command to the browser, opening the pop-up window.
*One of Strong Sad's expressions, "whistful," is spelled incorrectly. It should be "wistful."
*In the Fake QOD, the words "Quote of the Day (Or So)" are displayed reversed, as though in a mirror, and, instead of "Hear It!" and "Get It!", the buttons are "Hear It!" and "Don't TAPE It", although the latter is hidden by the top of the screen. "TAPE" changes to "TAKE" when moused over.
*When the Fake QOD easter egg is activated, the Games, Characters, Downloads, and Store buttons disappear.
**This happens because the SWF file for virus's fake Quote of the Week (qod_virus.swf) has black bars at the bottom right where those words are, so when it appears in the email, it covers up those words.
*Allowing the fake Sketchbook to remain on-screen causes a screen glitch—a black box appears over the left side of the screen when the screen moves off of the center of the page.
**The reason for the color switcher glitch is because in the .swf file of the glitched up sketchbook, there is a black box to the left of the screen, which covers up the screen on the left.
*This is the second e-mail made using the Widescreen technique. The first was [[flashback]].
*Clicking on the "main" on the navigation bar leads to the [[404'd]] page. The address is http://www.homestarrunner.com/mainNaN.html. NaN is the computer term for Not a Number, which is obtained in some environments by dividing zero by zero and/or other mathematical errors.
*When the fake popups appear followed by the real one, the fake ones look similar to the windows from some of the older Microsoft Windows operating systems. Depending on which operating system and desktop theme one uses, the real popup looks quite different from the fake ones. Especially users of operating systems such as Mac OS or Linux will notice this, while Windows 98 users will see no obvious difference.
*At the beginning of the Email, the contrast buttons will slightly increase and decrease the volume.
*In the Podcast version, Strong Bad looks back and forth when the ads pop up, even though they all appear in one area.
*Most shotguns spread out from the barrel, whereas the blast from Bubs's shotgun seems to narrow down as it reaches the back wall.
*When the "F" for [[Weekly Fanstuff]] and the "S" for [[Sketchbook]] are clicked, they change into a "[[Quote of the Week|Q]]".
*When the top of the screen lowers to reveal the weeklies, using the tab key will highlight a rectangle where the new toon message is displayed. While it can't be clicked, pressing enter while it is highlighted will lead to [[Halloween Fairstival]].

=== Goofs ===
*While the liquid is leaking out of the screen, the contrast buttons are still clickable.
*After Homestar grabs "downloads", "characters", and "games" from the bottom, "toons" is no longer clickable, unlike the other remaining links. Then, at the end of the email when everything else returns to normal, all the links disappear.
*The fake QOD, fanstuff, and sketchbook stay on the screen until the watcher of the email gets rid of them, even after Bubs shotguns the Compy, and in the Easter eggs.
*After Strong Bad types "deleted!" for the first time and the blue screen appears, the drive letter disappears.

===Glitches===
*As Strong Bad runs away from Bubs, his left arm momentarily disappears. This is easier to see if viewed in the Flash file.

=== Inside References ===

*This is an extreme instance of [[Strong Bad's Computer Malfunctioning]].
*The "Flagrant System Error" title is from [[50 emails]].
*"Stave it off, 1, 2, 3..." is from the counting song in "[[Whaddaya Know, Haddi-Man?]]".
*The card that Strong Sad transforms into is from the original deck of [[Character Cards]] that has since been removed from the site.
*The pixelated broom induced by the glitched Quote of the Day is the same graphic used in Peasant's Quest for the broom [[Baby Lady & Her Baby|the baby]] knocks over to let the player into [[Naked Ned]]'s cottage.
**Using a broom to play Marzipan's garbled noise may be an oblique reference to people mistaking her for a broom.
*"Making out with Marzipan is totally awesome" was once the phrase necessary to trigger the Strong Bad Talker from the [[Homestar Talker]] (It has since been changed). The sound clips for the words were also taken from the Homestar Talker. The first four words of the phrase are also heard in "[[The Cheat Theme Song]]".
**The "Click on the Monkey" pop-up(s) shows an [[Homestar Runner Evolution|older version of Homestar]].
*Strong Bad screaming and pounding on the edge of the screen while the popups are appearing could be a reference to [[Where the Crap Are We?]].
*Strong Mad's description, which appears when he glitches, comes from the [[Yearbook Character Page]], as does the picture of him inside a giant M.
**This time, the giant M shows Strong Mad's "M" insignia on his singlet, whereas in [[Yearbook Character Page]], the giant M did not.
*The sound effect that plays when The Ugly One appears is taken from [[RhinoFeeder]].
*[[The Ugly One]]'s line and the sound effects for her slapping the King of Town in the face come from [[crazy cartoon]]. However, she slightly misquotes it: the original line was "I can do it! I ''will'' do it nine times."
*The powering-down sound that plays just before Bubs walks across the screen is the same sound that plays just before the [[Tandy 400]] explodes in [[gimmicks]]
*As Bubs is walking across the screen the first time, his left and right arms are moving as if stuck in positons #4 and #5 (respectively) in the [[Dancin' Bubs]] game. Bubs's right arm is also about twice as large as usual.
*Bubs's broken JPEG mouth bears the letters "TH." This might be a reference to his other identity, [[The Thnikkaman]].
*During the final glitch scene (just before Bubs "fixes" the computer), the song playing in the background is the intro to "[[Parsnips-A-Plenty]]" and "[[That A Ghost]]".
*Strong Bad's line during the final glitch scene is taken directly from [[The Reddest Radish]].
*The cloud background during the final glitch scene is the same cloud background used in [[New Boots]].
*[[Image:virusdthecheat.gif|thumb|Virus'd The Cheat]] During the final glitch scene, The Cheat is on a rotation of six different versions of himself:
*# The [[Awexome Cross]] version.
*# One that looks like one of The Cheat's styles from "[[The Cheat Theme Song]]".
*# A drawn version, from "[[The Reddest Radish]]".
*# Another drawn version from Strong Bad's site.
*# A far more pixellated version of him, with a thin black outline around it.
*# A Cheat x-ing sign, much like the similar signs seen in the [[Fan Stuff]] part of the [[Museum]].
*The fan and cog in the Compy 386 are the same fan and cog that were visible when the Tandy 400 exploded.
**Looking closely (or zooming into the Flash file) reveals that the fan is once again mysteriously floating in space, just like when the Tandy 400 blew up.
*Bubs sells the [[Broken Compy Menu|broken Compy 386]] as he did with the [[King of Town Email|broken Tandy 400]].
*Strong Bad's muttered last line "how do you text with boxing gloves on?" is a variation of the common "[[How Do You Type With Boxing Gloves On?|how do you type with boxing gloves on?]]".


=== Real-World References ===
*[[Wikipedia:Linux kernel|"Linux"]] is a [[Wikipedia:Free software|Free]] [[Wikipedia:Unix|Unix-like]] [[Wikipedia:Kernel (computer science)|kernel]] originally written in 1991, or part of an entire operating system which uses this kernel ([[Wikipedia:Linux|"GNU/Linux"]]). Another reference to Linux can be found in the [[Videlectrix]] game [[Hallrunner]].
*[[Edgar#Edgarware|Edgarware]] is a spoof of Norton Anti-Virus, which until 2001 used bespectacled computer nerd [[Wikipedia:Peter Norton|Peter Norton]] as a front man.
*The part where Homestar is followed by "ghost" images of himself is a Flash in-joke, referring to the [[Wikipedia:Onion skinning|Onion skinning]] feature of the program that will display translucent images of previous frames as an animation guide.
*"Click on the monkey" refers to various [[Wikipedia:Pop-up ad|popups]] where clicking on an object (ranging from targets to robbers, iPods, etc.) will usually bombard one's computer with spyware, viruses, etc.
*The dance The Cheat performs when Strong Bad says, "Let's do a dance for the computer genius man," looks like [[Wikipedia:Dana Carvey|Dana Carvey]]'s "[[Wikipedia:Church Lady|Church Lady]]" dance from the classic SNL sketch.
*"[[Wikipedia:Bourgeoisie|Bourgeoise]]," one of the emoticons acting as Strong Sad's head, is the feminine form of the term used in [[Wikipedia:Marxism|Marxism]] to describe the middle or upper class that oppose the [[Wikipedia:Proletariat|proletariat]] (working class) in the class struggle.
**Another emoticon, "o' what a night", references [[Wikipedia:The Four Seasons (group)|The Four Seasons]]' hit "[[Wikipedia:December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)|December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)]]".
*The "ding" sound heard after EdgarWare finds the viruses is taken from some versions of [[Wikipedia:Microsoft Windows|Microsoft Windows]].
*The screen "It's now safe to turn your computer off." is similar to the one displayed when shutting down a Windows computer that cannot turn itself off. The actual message is "It is now safe to turn off your computer", and the style of this message is taken from Windows 95 through 98. (and some later versions of Windows, if the computer is unable to turn itself off.)
*"A wise guy, eh?" was frequently muttered (in a very similar tone of voice to how Strong Bad says it) by [[Wikipedia:Moe Howard|Moe Howard]] of the comedy group [[Wikipedia:The Three Stooges|The Three Stooges]].

===Fast Forward===
*[[Main Page 22]] is based on this email.
*The shotgunned Compy would reappear along with the cracked [[Tandy 400|Tandy]] in [[retirement]].
*Two of The Cheat's designs seen near the end (just before everything returns to normal) can be viewed as a few alternatives in the DVD release of [[The Reddest Radish]]; namely, the child's drawing and the crossing sign (but without the word "x-ing").

== DVD Version ==
*The central pop-up (that is, the one that would actually pop up on the website version) does not appear.
*Unlike all other DVD emails, this has the [[HR:main nav.swf|navbar]] on the bottom.
*The way the Quote of the Week, Sketchbook, and Weekly Fanstuff easter eggs work has changed. All three are combined into one easter egg, which goes to the Weekly Fanstuff easter egg, then the Quote of the Week easter egg, and finally the Sketchbook easter egg.
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.
=== Commentary Transcript ===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Mike Chapman]], [[Matt Chapman]], [[Homestar Runner]])

'''MIKE:''' This email looks tiny, Matt.

'''MATT:''' It's a funny shape.

'''MIKE:''' It's smaller than the rest, and there's little words at the bottom.

'''MATT:''' This doesn't make any sense to me!

'''MIKE:''' What's going on?

'''MATT:''' S— Oh, no. Strong Bad must have gotten some type of a wirus!

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Virus.

'''MATT:''' B— Pardon?

'''MIKE:''' Virus?

'''MATT:''' Oh. I used the German pronunciation.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Yeah?

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' K. Um, so this was, uh, this was a— this email was kind of a big— big production.

'''MATT:''' Mm hmm.

'''MIKE:''' Took longer than most.

'''MATT:''' A long time in coming.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Um...

'''MATT:''' Yeah, see— he hasn't used "deleted" on the Lappy yet, now that he has a new computer, has he?

'''MIKE:''' I guess not. I wonder what it looks like when he deletes something on the Lappy.

'''MATT:''' I dunno. "Drop a train on 'em" was from a bad hip-hop song I made in college — ''{Mike laughs}''— where I sampled the soundtrack from a Dirty Harry movie.

'''MIKE:''' That's a good song.

'''MATT:''' Thanks.

''{Pause}''

'''MIKE:''' So this, obviously, was, uh, pretty fun to make where you could just kinda put stuff wherever and just...

'''MATT:''' It's more like ''your'' computer is getting the virus than Strong Bad's computer getting the virus.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. The whole world is getting the virus.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. "Stave it off, 1, 2, 3" up there at the top.

'''MIKE:''' Mm hmm. There's uh, Strong Sad's head is the, uh, his little emoticons from the uh, his—

'''MATT:''' Strong Sad's Web journal.

'''MIKE:''' Strong Sad Journal.

'''MATT:''' That was from an unused character page we never made.

'''MIKE:''' Mm hmm.

''{Pause}''

'''MIKE:''' Say something good, Matt.

'''MATT:''' Uh—

'''MIKE:''' Make it— Make it funny.

'''MATT:''' All right. ''{adopts different tone}'' T— To— ''{normal voice}'' Oh, yeah, weren't we gonna do— I was going to be a character when we did this commentary.

'''MIKE:''' Oh yeah. Start doing Homestar.

'''MATT:''' All right...

''{Pause}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' That was a lot of me's.

'''MIKE:''' That ''was'' a lot of you's.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Mike, some of them were old me's that don't look so great.

'''MIKE:''' That's right. I thought you looked pretty good back in the old days.

'''HOMESTAR:''' No, no.

'''MIKE:''' Oh, you—

'''HOMESTAR:''' Look bad.

'''MIKE:''' Look Bad!

'''HOMESTAR:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Strong Bad.

'''HOMESTAR:''' That's a different character.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Who was Look Bad again?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Oh, what are they doing there? Is he gonna eat that doo-doo shovel?

'''MIKE:''' No, I think was going to take a picture of it, maybe.

'''HOMESTAR:''' But he doesn't have a camera, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' But the camera was offscreen.

'''HOMESTAR:''' He's got a mustache.

'''MIKE:''' The camera was offscreen.

'''HOMESTAR:''' He clearly wanted... a doo-doo-stache.

'''MIKE:''' Who's that, Homestar?

'''HOMESTAR:''' That looks kinda like Bubs, from Website. But I don't think so. Oh, look, it's ''Pitfall''.

'''MIKE:''' That did happen in ''Pitfall''.

'''HOMESTAR:''' If you flick the on and off switch a lot, you get a little floating Pitfall Harry through the trees!

'''MIKE:''' Oh, I like The Cheat's little sassy dance there, Homestar. Did you teach him that?

'''HOMESTAR:''' I did. Hands on hips!

'''MIKE:''' How'd you teach him that?

'''HOMESTAR:''' I said, "Hands on hips!"

'''MIKE:''' Look, there's your leg.

'''HOMESTAR:''' That is not my leg! That looks like a shotgun.

'''MIKE:''' Bu—

''{Pause}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' That shotgun looks dangerous, Mike. I don't agree with its appearance in this cartoon.

'''MIKE:''' You shouldn't play with shotguns, Homestar.

'''HOMESTAR:''' I don't, man.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Good.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Did you learn that the hard way?

'''MIKE:''' No.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Penny Hardaway?

'''MIKE:''' I'm allowed to— I'm allowed to draw them, though. Drawing them's no problem.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Drawing them is bad.

'''MIKE:''' No, I think it's okay.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Here I come!

'''MIKE:''' See?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Look! I lost my leg!

'''MIKE:''' I know, that's— Bubs— Bubs has it there.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Strong Bad looks like he's a little delirious in this part.

'''MIKE:''' He's— He's sad. He's had a great loss. People sometimes act like this... when they're experiencing great losses.

'''HOMESTAR:''' But— Mike, a great loss sounds like a contradiction.

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

'''HOMESTAR:''' I don't— I've never had any ''great'' losses.

'''MIKE:''' "Great"— "Great" meaning "large," not meaning—

'''HOMESTAR:''' All my losses are bad losses.

'''MIKE:''' You've never had a great loss?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Except maybe, some pounds. ''{Pause}'' He just really put a hole right through that thing, huh?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Didn't go through the wall, though.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Nope. ''{whispering}'' Let's get quiet.

'''MIKE:''' ''{whispering}'' Okay.

=== Fun Facts ===

* Matt says Strong Bad got a "wirus" and then calls this "the German pronunciation". This is because the standard German pronunciation of the word "virus" starts with a "w" sound, imitating the original Latin pronunciation of the word.
* Homestar demonstrates his ignorance that he has [[Lack of Visible Arms|no visible hands or arms]].
* [[Wikipedia:Penny Hardaway|Penny Hardaway]] is a professional basketball player who has played guard for the [[Wikipedia:National Basketball Association|NBA]]'s Orlando Magic, Phoenix Suns, and New York Knicks.

Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque Responses

:'''DANGERESQUE:''' What did you want again, The Chief?
:'''THE CHIEF:''' YOU SOLVE MY FRIGGIN' CASE RIGHT NOW OR I'M TAKIN' YOU TO THE HOOSEGOW!

===Blinds===
====Look====

===Inside References===
*"Stairmaster" is a reference to [[A Jorb Well Done]].
*Talking to certain objects will have Dangeresque ask the object "Do you know the times?", as [[Homestar Runner]] asked of [[Made-Up Strong Bad Animals#Monstrosity|the Monstrosity]] in [[animal]].
*When Dangeresque talks to the Chinese food container, he references a line from [[Trogdor]]'s theme song.

== Article title ==

I think we should move this article to [[Homestar Runner Email]], to make the article title match up with [[Strong Bad Email]]. "Hremail" is just short for "Homestar Runner Email" anyway, like how "sbemail" is short for "Strong Bad Email". {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 20:56, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
:It's never actually referred to as "Homestar Runner Email", though. "HREmail" is consistently used throughout. However, I do see your point, and would not be opposed to it, should it happen. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 21:02, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

::::::::But we have [[Strong Bad Email]] and we don't have the article named '''Sbemail''' now do we? What if we moved [[Strong Bad Email]] to '''Sbemail''' and let everyone ''infer'' that it's Strong Bad Emails, like you said we should do for this article?! We need to have the ''proper'' name for articles, not the abbreviation. Imagine what would happen if we did '''HR''', '''SB''', '''CZ''', '''PP''', ect. It's total madness! I vote '''move.''' {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 21:22, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

::::::::::We still shouldn't have the abbreviation. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 21:30, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

::::::::::::We know that the proper word is Homestar Runner Emails. It makes no sense for us to have only an abbreviation when we '''''KNOW''''' what it is, regardless of what the characters call it or not. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 21:39, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
We report things as they are, not as we "know" them to be. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 21:42, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

::Wait, not yet. Remember, Homestar calls it "Hremails" referring to his email show and calls Strong Bad's email show "Sbemails" right afterwards. Sounds to me like Homestar just felt like abbreviating. If he had called his email show "Hremails" and then called Strong Bad's email show "Strong Bad Email" right after then that would prove that "Hremails" is the actual name. But Homestar calling it "Sbemails" proves that he was just shortening each of the names, right? {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 00:49, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

:::::The name "Homestar Runner Email" is, as of now, unofficial. Our article [[Strong Bad Email]] is named as such because of the '''''site listed''''' toon category. "Hremails" is the only way they've ever been reffered to as, therefore, the official name, until noted otherwise by TBC themselves, is "Hremails". {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 02:26, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
::::::Why not just call the article "Hremail (Homestar Runner Email)" until the "official" name is announced? {{User:Fotoshop/sig}} 04:54, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
:::::::The point is, before Homestar said "Hremails," he said that Strong Bad had "Sbemails." Both of them are short, meaning that Homestar abbreviated both of them for time sake.
move to homestar runner email? michaelXX2 told me this on irc, and i agreed, and since he's blocked, i'll post it. i just think we should. need i say more?? {{User:Homsarstrongbad150/sig}} 02:35, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
:Actually, it ''would'' help if you said more, because hearing an opinion is easier to base a page move on than just "Michael said something, I agreed...there ya' go". From what I hear, the "show" hasn't been referred to as "Homestar Runner Email"...only as "Hremails". So I think it makes sense to keep the article under this name. {{User:DevonM/sig}} 03:06, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
::Like I said, Homestar abbreviated "Sbemails." If he abbreviated "Sbemails," what makes you think he didn't abbreviate "Hremails?"
:::Yes, but the correct title for "sbemail(s)" is/are "Strong Bad Email(s)", whereas for "hremails", there is no official title as far as we know (and we might never know). {{User:DevonM/sig}} 03:48, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
::::What in the world makes you think that Homestar didn't mean the same freakin' CONCEPT ABOUT HIS ABBREVIATION?! WHAT MAKES HIS DIFFERENT?!
:I'd like to chime in with a "who cares?". Seriously, this is among the more useless discussions I have ever encountered on a wiki. I hope you are proud of yourselves. That said, there are two main ideologies at stake here: should we go with the standard we are already using (Strong Bad Email --> Homestar Runner Email), or should we go by the name the characters use in the cartoon? I'm personally more enamored of the former, but quite frankly, it just ''doesn't matter''. One will always redirect to the other. --[[User:Blu Aardvark|Blu Aardvark]] [[user talk:Blu Aardvark|(talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Blu Aardvark|(edits)]] 04:01, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{very quickly}'' Hassaro, heesaro. Hassaro, heesaro!

''{Reading email}''

<blockquote class="compy email">Strong Bad, 
I am going on a long trip and won't be 
able to check out "Homestar Runner's 
Website" for a long time. What do you 
think the greatest advancement for 
Strong Badia will be in the next 2 
years? 
 
Your Main Man, 
E. Fullmer</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad reads "Strong Bad" stressing "Strong" as if it were "Dear," says "Homestar has a website?" after reading "Homestar Runner's Website for a long time" and says "Oh..." before reading the signature}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Umm, Endiment...? ''{typing}'' Hang on Endiment. Just for the record, my main man is, and has been since 1987, Van Mundegaarde. And don't you forget it.

''{not typing, a little picture of Strong Bad with a note from Strong Bad to Van comes down}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, Van, the times we shared. ''{typing}'' Well, as you know, Endy, Strong Badia is on the cutting edge of the future. I can easily predict that the population will have tripled in two years.

''{Cut to Strong Badia}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So by then it will be population: tire and...bundt cake pan.

''{A bundt cake pan appears out of nowhere. The sign changes its population list accordingly.}''

'''STRONG BAD:'''...and Coach Z.

''{Coach Z appears behind the fence, facing away from the camera. The sign changes its population list accordingly again.}''

'''COACH Z:''' I'm takin' a leak!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' I also have some good news for you single ladies out there. The cinder block is going to break up with the sign.

''{The stopsign moves away from the cinder block, and a letter from the cinder block to the sign appears on-screen.}''

'''CINDER BLOCK:''' Dear Stop Sign, you are a stop sign and I am a cinder block.

''{The letter disappears}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Ooh! And we will also have developed a world-class hole.

''{A hole appears in the ground}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And by then, hopefully The Cheat will be finished with the mural I commissioned him to paint on the fence...

''{A mural of the words "FIReWORKS or die" appears on the fence}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' ...like a freakin' year ago. Slowbie. Oh yeah, and the tire will have definitely won the title.

''(A belt appears on the tire and an invisible crowd cheers.)''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And finally, Strong Sad will have actually succeeded in becoming more whiny.

''{Strong Sad appears out of nowhere}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{pouty voice}'' I don't like food anymore!

''{Cut back to the Compy}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Augh. So annoying. Oh, that reminds me. I should probably go let Strong Sad outta the dryer. He's been in there since breakfast.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down. After about 15 seconds, Strong Bad gets up. Cut to the dryer. Strong Bad opens it, and discovers a dizzy, fluffy The Cheat.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What the—? The Cheat?! Where the crap did I leave Strong Sad?

''{Cut to The King of Town's grill. It's closed, but we can hear Strong Sad's voice from within.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, hello? Can anybody hear me? The Cheat has a really nice place in here. And none of his shirts fit me.

''{Cut back to the Compy, with Strong Bad sitting at it as before.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*You can click on the words "[[Homestar Runner's Website]]" to see a quick peek at it. This can only be done between when he reads the words and when he says "Homestar has a website?"
*After you wait and see what happened to Strong Sad, you can click on the reflection of Strong Bad's blue diamond to see the advertisement for the "Rematch" between Strong Mad and the [[Tire]].
:''{Cut to black screen.}''
:'''VOICEOVER:''' Revenge.
:''{Everything he says echoes ridiculously. The word "REVENGE" appears in red on the screen and Strong Mad is seen on the left, half-lit. He then disappears.}''
:'''VOICEOVER:''' Vengeance.
:''{The word "VENGEANCE" is now seen on the screen and the Tire, as with Strong Mad, appears half-lit on the right. It also disappears.}''
:'''VOICEOVER:''' Vengeful.
:''{The word "VENGEFUL" appears and Strong Mad appears as before, more briefly this time.}''
:'''VOICEOVER:''' Revengeanceful.
:''{The word "REVENGEANCEFUL" appears and the Tire reappears and disappears as before. Then Strong Mad is seen straight on, coming closer to the screen.}''
:'''VOICEOVER:''' This Sunday, watch as Strong Mad attempts to reclaim the title—
:''{Title belts appear around Strong Mad's eyes, and his face starts fading into red}''
:'''VOICEOVER:''' —from Strong Badia heavyweight champion,—
:''{The whole screen turns red and the Tire appears on the screen, growing toward us.}''
:'''VOICEOVER:''' —the Tire. Tire Madness.
:''{A red Tire Madness logo appears, flashes, and explodes onto the screen, which briefly turns yellow, then reverts to red.}''
:'''VOICEOVER:''' Only on pay per view.
:''{The words "ONLY ON PAY PER VIEW!!!" flash in yellow at the bottom.}''

==Fun Facts==

===Trivia===

*The note on the photograph presumably given to Van Mundegaarde reads:
<blockquote>To My Main Man 
Van Mundegaarde, 
Keep Rocking it [[1987]]-style. 
-Strong 
Bad</blockquote>

*The full text of the letter the Cinder Block writes is:
<blockquote>Dear Stop Sign, 
You are a stop sign and I am a 
cinder block. Therefore I think 
we should break up. I hope we 
can still be's friends. 
 
Love Always, 
Cinder Block</blockquote>

*It's been confirmed that E. Fullmer's first initial stands for "Elder" Fullmer (not Endiment), indicating that he is about to become a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (sometimes called the Mormon church). This could explain why he will be going on a two-year trip and will not be able to check the website for two years, as that is how long young men serve as Mormon missionaries, and they are usually not allowed to surf the Internet during that time.
*The Homestar portrait on his website is done using the [[Wikipedia:Repoussé and chasing|repoussé]] technique.
*The "Tire Madness" Logo is similar to the logo used by the now-defunct WCW organization.

===Remarks===

*The [[No Loafing Sign|No Loafing]] sign can be seen when Strong Bad finds The Cheat in the dryer, though the sign is known to be located in the Computer Room.
*This email was released in September 2003, so the changes Strong Bad mentions should have come into fruition by 2005. To date, however, none of these predictions have panned out.
*The fact that Strong Sad says "The Cheat has a really nice place in here" while he is in [[The King of Town's grill]] (and the fact that he fits in it at all) can confirm that The King's grill is much more spacious on the inside than it looks.

===Inside References===

*The music that plays when the Cinder Block's note is displayed is the same music that played in [[A Decemberween Pageant]] when Marzipan was talking to The Cheat (right after Strong Bad had said, "There's a squid.") and, later, in [[pom pom]] when Strong Bad is writing the letter to [[Pom Pom]]'s parents.
*The Cinder Block's note marks the first instance of [[be's]].
*Strong Sad's being in [[The King of Town's Grill]] is a reference to [[Where's The Cheat?]].
* Coach Z's line "I'm taking a leak!" is a reference to [[peeing]].

===Fast Forward===
*The Cheat ends up in the dryer again in [[lady fan]].
*[[geddup noise]], the email that actually came out two years later, does coincidentally refer to the email before this one, but it does not feature Strong Badia. However, none of Strong Bad's predictions have come true.
*That glossy autographed photo of Strong Bad appears again in [[Strongest Man in the World]].
*The championship belt re-appears as a costume item in [[Homestar Ruiner]].

== DVD Version ==
*The Homestar's website Easter egg is actually part of the email. When you switch the angle using the angle button on your DVD remote, it pops up like a regular webpage window and sticks around for ten or fifteen seconds.
*The Cheat in the Dryer and Strong Sad in the Grill Easter eggs have now been separated. You can now find Strong Sad by selecting a hidden Strong Bad icon in the lower-left corner of the Compy 386 screen.

:It's not a dog. Put the shirt on and stand in front of the backdrop.. you'll get a nice close-up view and see that it cannot possibly be a dog. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 19:19, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
:It's a squirrel, I changed it to squirrel, Telltale explained it on their forums, I forgot where but it's a squirrel. {{User:splashUru1}} 1:37, 25 October 2008

==Kevin Bruner?==
Where is the supposed Kevin Bruner shirt, and why is it not listed in the walkthrough? {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 19:19, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
:It's in the same spot as the squirrel shirt. {{User:splashUru1}} 1:34, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

== Rocker Hair? ==

Who posted that? And is it true? What console was it on? PC or Wii?
{User: SplashUru1}
:Aye, the only hair I see is the Carabowdit hair. PC here. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 01:09, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
:It's called "big hair" or "long hair" or something in the game. I forget, but it's clearly rocker hair. Long, blond, build-in bandanna. And it appears on the Wii, at least. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:55, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
::I'm on the PC. I don't have it. Does it replace the leopard headband? (I do have that.) -{{User:ReverendTed/sig}} 02:43, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

==Closed STUFF==
Normally this header goes in the Talk page for items that have been Declined after going through the [[STUFF]] process - however, the item that follows contains a conversation worth saving. Thus, even though the item itself was Accepted, the archived discussion will reside here.

===A grill, a doghouse, a trash can, an igloo and the TARDIS===
The spacious interior of The Cheat's house may be a reference to Snoopy's house from the Peanuts comics. It also looked small and ordinary on the outside, but was very large and luxurious on the inside, housing, among other things, his prized Van Gogh. It might also be a reference to Oscar the Grouch's trash can (from Sesame Street), which is also small on the outside, but contains a swimming pool and a number of other facilities within. It could also be a reference to the Nickelodeon show Doug, where his smart dog's (Porkchop) igloo is WAY roomier than it looked. Or even the TARDIS from Dr Who...

*'''Neutral''' I doubt its a reference to any those, but for some reason, I don't want to decline it. --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 22:03, 22 Mar 2005 (MST)
*'''Weak decline - needs severe rewrite''' This is actually a combination of several entries from that page that should have been combined in a single fact, so I did. The trouble is, there are way too many references noted here. The "roomier than it looks" gag isn't anything new, and severe rewrite on this is needed in order for this to be acceptable. At the very least, the Oscar and TARDIS references need to go. --[[User:TheEggman|TheEggman]] 07:53, 23 Mar 2005 (MST)
**'''Second''' Alls I know is that Snoopy's house was huge on the inside. --[[User:acekirby13|acekirby13]] 09:00, 25 Mar 2005 (MST)
*'''Decline''' It's a reference to this... and a reference to that... and a reference to this other thing... and a reference to something else... make up your mind! I hate "facts" like this. --[[User:Jay|Jay]] 10:05, 26 Mar 2005 (MST)
**King Edward the '''Second'''. It's a common gag. It doesn't reference anything specific. --[[User:Beatfox|Beatfox]] 20:17, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
**'''Second.''' -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 20:42, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
*'''Weak Decline''' Nice thinking, but I think it gets used to much to be an actual reference to anything. The gag is also used in Eek! The cat (Sharky's house), and SpongeBob Squarepants (Patrick's house).
*'''Comment''' In the book, "The ultimate unnofficial guide to the mysteries of Harry Potter", they say in the fouth book chapter that it's a reference to the TARDIS in Dr. who when the tent really was a three room flt at the Quidditch World Cup, Or Moody's trunk in "Veritaserum"!
** How would THEY know what TBC were thinking? Was H*R even mentioned?! --[[User:Jay|Jay]] 11:53, 9 Apr 2005 (MDT)
** So? In any case, '''Patsy Decline''' [[User:Dasrik|Dasrik]] 20:52, 10 Apr 2005 (MDT)
** '''Accept''' I was about to decline this one until that last comment... I mean, if Harry Potter can make a Dr. Who reference, why not TBC? And if TBC can make a Dr. Who reference, why can't they make a reference to Peanuts, Oscar the Grouch, Spongebob, Stick Stickley, The Fresh Prince, Rocky III, and whoever else listed above has a roomy house.
=== Strong Sad a Strongbadian ===
According to this email, Strong Sad is (or will be) a resident of [[Strong Badia]].

* '''Decline''' He could simply be there, or visiting. You don't have to belong to a country to visit it, or even to reside in it. (Jim Carrey wasnt amercan until recently but he lived there for years).--[[User:flashstorm|flashstorm]] 17:15, 15 Mar 2005 (MST)
** Please sign your vote. --[[User:TheEggman|TheEggman]]
*** Did now--[[User:flashstorm|flashstorm]] 17:15, 15 Mar 2005 (MST)
*'''Decline.''' If that was the case, the sign would read "Population: Tire, Bundt Cake Pan, Coach Z, and Strong Sad." --[[User:TheEggman|TheEggman]] 11:59, 15 Mar 2005 (MST)
**'''Second.''' --[[User:Stinkoman K|Stinkoman K]]
**Like, totally '''Second''', dude! [[User:Kvb|Kvb]] 14:46, 1 Apr 2005 (MST)
*'''Decline''' Although I think this fact is wrong, I just want to point out that the population on the tire isn't entire accurate. Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat aren't listed, and we all know they're in there. --[[User:Joshua|Joshua]] 20:44, 28 Mar 2005 (MST)
===Mormon Missionary===
E. Fullmer's first initial could possibly really stand for "Elder" Fullmer, indicating that he is about to become a Mormon missionary. This could explain why he will be going on a two-year trip and will not be able to check the website for two years, as that is how long Mormon missionaries serve, and they are not allowed to use the Internet during that time.

*'''Accept.''' -- [[User:thatkidsam|thatkidsam]] 09:04, 8 Jan 2005 (MST)
*'''Decline.''' Oh, like: "E. Fullmer's name could be Ed Fullmer, a play on Elmer Fudd" or "E. Fullmer's name could be Evan Fullmer, a disc jockey in Georgia I know, and the brothers chaps are from Georgia." --24.21.86.243 00:19, 3 Jan 2005 (MST)
**TBC claim not to have come up with any of the content in the e-mails Strong Bad answers, so the name is probably not a joke. Maybe someone who has experience with the LDS church could comment on whether it's common for an elder to sign in that fashion.--[[User:216.231.36.102|216.231.36.102]] 09:35, 4 Jan 2005 (MST)
***Don't suppose this matters much now, since it's verified that he was a Mormon missionary, but for the record no, it's not common at all. I'm a Mormon, and I've served a mission myself, and I've never seen "Elder" abbreviated like that (before). But apparently there's always a first time... --[[User:Alun Clewe|Alun Clewe]] 02:19, 26 Feb 2005 (MST)
****In fact, actually, the more I think about this the less sense it makes. Not only is "Elder" in my experience never abbreviated to "E.", but it wouldn't make sense for him to be referring to himself as "Elder Fullmer" in the first place. If he's sending an e-mail saying he's going to be gone for two years and unable to access the web, that means he hasn't started his mission yet, and he wouldn't be calling himself "Elder Fullmer" yet. Okay, I understand someone says this guy is a friend of his coworker and he was indeed a soon-to-be Mormon missionary, fine, but...did his first name, by any chance, start with E? Because that would still make a lot more sense than the "E." standing for Elder when Elder isn't abbreviated that way and he wouldn't be calling himself Elder yet anyway. In fact, the personal testimonial notwithstanding, this rings false for me on enough levels I'm going to have to vote '''Decline''' on this one unless some more direct evidence arises. -[[User:Alun Clewe|Alun Clewe]] 16:07, 1 Mar 2005 (MST)
**'''Second'''. [[User:gwr2004|gwr2004]] 11:15, 8 Jan 2005 (MST)
*Didn't someone say they actually knew E. Fullmer, who is indeed a mormon missionary? Wait... [http://forum.hrwiki.org/viewtopic.php?p=7029&highlight=#7029 yes]. Of course, that may not necessarily mean anything, but I still say '''accept''' either way. - [[User:SailorMarzipan|SailorHippyGirl]]
:I'm going to have to '''Accept'''. Because it's true! And 216.231.36.102, it's not terribly common for missionaries to sign things that way, but I think he did it so people could get the joke without being so blatant as to write out Elder. I do know that H*R is saturatingly popular at both USU and BYU, so there would be plenty of people to get the joke. --[[User:racerx is alive|racerx_is_alive]] 13:16, 12 Jan 2005 (MST)
*'''Accept'''. Click on the link above - this is a verified fact. [[User:Kilroy|<nowiki></nowiki>]]—[[User:Kilroy|Kilroy]]/[[User talk:Kilroy|talk]][[<nowiki></nowiki>]] 20:23, 21 Jan 2005 (MST)
**'''Accept''' -- I didn't know that. Definately an interesting tidbit and should be accepted as long as there is enough supporting evidence to merit the assumption. [[User:Kamek|Kamek]] 12:12, 24 Jan 2005 (MST)
*'''Revise''' I think this should be reworded, because it has been verified. Something like "E. Fullmer is a Mormon missionary, which explains why he will be absent for the next two years," or something. [[User:Gydea|Gydea]]
**'''Decline the above revise, accept the original''' The original is a plausible enough explanation, whether it's true or not (and a lot of fun facts are based on more sketchy information). However, I would decline the above revise because someone posting on a message board about 'the best friend of my coworker' is not the same as verification. I should know... my brother's boss's former roommate was the guy whose stomach exploded because he mixed Pop Rocks and Coke. --[[User:211.252.38.203|211.252.38.203]] 00:29, 9 Mar 2005 (MST)
*'''Comment''' I am an LDSer and when my dad signed his name on his mission in letters to home he signed it E. (his last name) because the E meant Elder. My cousin who goes to BYU and is also a Mormon come home from his mission says that Homestar Runner is very popular there because a lot more flash movies these days have swear words in them. Since Homestar Runner is pretty clean-humored, it's very well-known at Mormon-based schools like BYU, so it's possible that Mr. Fullmer went there and had to go on his mission. Anyhoo, I'm rambling. Signing off. --24.161.164.120

== September 2005 ==

It's been 2 years since this e-mail, and none of this occured yet. Except possibly Strong Sad getting whinier.
:Well, I didn't really expect it to, yeah? It was all... speculation. Unless this upcoming toon mentioned on the front page will suddenly bring about all these changes. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
::Actually, I've noticed Strong Sad getting '''less''' whinier. It started in Experimental Film with "Why don't you shut up, Homestar?" and it's built up. [[User:Cheatachu72|Cheatachu72]] 02:48, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
:::Ah, imagine a complete reversal-of-expectations, in which Strong Bad's predictions will not only be false but just the opposite of what he thought... The tire deflates, the stop sign and cinderblock elope, Strong Sad stands up for himself, and Strong Bad paints the mural himself. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
::::And Coach Z doesn't take a leak. {{User:Bubsty/sig}} 16:55, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
:::::Strong Sad is probably the same amount of whiny, give or take a bit. But he's definately not as whiny as Strong Bad predicted him to be. As evidenced in "Narrator," he still likes food. Even if it is grody ethnic food. Coach Z, has however spent some time behind the fence (near the end of the Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon, for instance), and he may or may not have taken a leak there (it certainly wouldn't be something I'd put past him). However, he is far from a perminent resident of Strong Badia. Strong Bad did dig a hole (the death hole from Cool Things) but it is not in Strong Badia, nor is it specified as world class. And if the "class" of a hole is based on depth, the death hole probably doesn't qualify. --{{User:Chupaqueso|Chupaqueso}}
I bet the reason they didn't resolve this like they did "Stay tuned in September 2004 for Dangeresque 3" from [[stunt double]] and "The Paper stuck around until email 173" from [[montage]] was because not enough people cared for this email to come true.

== Gender ==

I removed this Fun Fact:

*It is now revealed the [[Cinder Block]] is male, and the [[Stop Sign]] is female.

The only evidence I can find to support this is that the letter is read in a vaguely male voice. But it's not necessarily a male voice. Secondly, how does deciding this either way definitively determine the gender of the Stop Sign these days? I think this is a huge leap not supported by fact, but I'm open to hear other points of view. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 02:38, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Ok, on [[Stop Sign]] I found that someone thinks "I also have some good news for you single ladies out there. The cinder block is going to break up with the sign." means that Cinderblock must be male. But it could equally mean Stoppy is male. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 02:41, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

you know, it could mean that [[Cinder Block]] could possibly be female and [[Stop Sign]] male. just a chance [[User:Imdaman]]

==What is "endiment"?==

What does endiment mean?
:It doesn't appear to have a definition at dictionary.com... It's probably made up. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

== Love Always? ==

Doesn't the letter say "Love Always, Cinder Block" with Cinder Block as two separate words? -- [[User:Dragoon5464|Dragoon5464]] 15:39, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
:Hey, you're right! How did we miss that? Did they change it? Meh, I'll fix it. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 16:03, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

I think Strong Sad's become whinier since this email. [[User:Awexome|Awexome]] 21:59, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

== What is worth "Nothing?" ==

"It is worth nothing that since it will be utilizing the Wii graphics, the game will, in fact, be in 3-D, just as Strong Bad declared in stunt double"
I believe the word "notHing" should be respelled as "noting." I looked closely at the spelling at first, and was initially confused, thinking there was either some bias or the game being free of charge. Just something to point out.

Actually. Nevermind. Just fixed it. Thank goodness for Public domain.

When I did my part for the responses to [[Strong Badia the Free]], I was under the understanding that the largest header types should only be used to label locations if the location being transcribed had a bunch of sub-locations to it (examples including the Field and the House of Strong). Now, they aren't broken down this way at all but everything gets grouped together no matter what the location is (examples: see how the responses for the Old Club and/or Catacombs is currently "broken down").

Have the rules changed between then and the current progress for this game? I'm really confused about this issue. [[User:Rexy|Rexy]] 23:29, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
:I basically started with the formatting of one of the Homestar Ruiner pages (don't recall which one) when I did the Baddest of the Bands pages, and noone commented on the style I was using. In my opinion, using level-two headings for so many small sections doesn't look very nice, but that's really just my opinion. I also don't really see why the level used for some particular section change depending on whether there's more than one scene in that location. --[[User:Belthazar|Belthazar]] 01:20, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

== Walkthrough? ==

Is there a walkthrough out yet?? {{User:Haldo/sig}}
:[[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective Walkthrough|Yep.]] {{User:Superfield Credit Union/sig}}
:: Now, ours isn't finished yet, but Telltale always puts walkthroughs of the main plot up the same day the episode is released. They don't tell how to get optional items on the same page like we do, though. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:23, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

== Craig's voice ==

Just gonna throw this out here and see if people agree or disagree. In the dialogue, it is claimed that there's a voiceover for the Cheat's lines as Craig. I'm not so sure; it sounds to me like the Cheat doing his Strong Bad impression he uses for PBTC. Can we get a STUFF? [[User:TJDevil02|TJDevil02]] 05:18, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
:Well, first of all, STUFF is no longer a practice here. It's been discontinued. Secondly, I am of the voiceover opinion (given the way the film looks compared with the voice's dubbing). What I really want to know is, is Mike doing that voice? --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 05:26, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
::I'm about 99% sure it's Mike's voice. I tried watching as the credits rolled to be sure but either I just didn't see it, or Craig wasn't listed. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 07:51, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Neither Craig nor Senor Cardgage were credited. Rather odd actually.

==Credits==
In the section of "special thanks to" in the credits, it says "The Homestar Wiki." Should I add it to Fun Facts? {{User:Don't say jorb 101/sig}}
:Since the acknowledgement is in the credits of ''all'' the episodes, adding the fun fact to the main [[Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People]] page (if it's not already there) would be a better option. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:25, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
:(edit conflict) That was also present in the other games, if I'm not mistaken. I don't see that it's necessary to have a fun facts entry for it. --[[User:Blu Aardvark|Blu Aardvark]] [[user talk:Blu Aardvark|(talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Blu Aardvark|(edits)]] 04:28, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*Strong Sad's costume in the Catacombs is a [[wikipedia:Motion capture#Optical: Passive Markers|passive optical marker motion capture suit]], or at least an approximation of one. It is similar to the "motion capture suit" worn by [[Matt Chapman]] in [[Sample Of Style Too]].

===Trivia===
*This is the first episode of SBCG4AP where the House of Strong cannot be navigated, and the first episode not to have a [[Teen Girl Squad]] comic.
*This is also the first SBCG4AP which doesn't feature Homsar.
*A blooper from this game of Bubs' line "Oh, you know him more than you know that you know that you know... him... or somethin'." was put on the website as [[Quote of the Week]] on 11th September 2008, just over two months before the game's release.
*Strong Bad had said in [[stunt double]] that Dangeresque 3 would be in 3D. However, it was depicted as an [[Wikipedia: anaglyph image|anaglyph image]] rather than a [[Wikipedia: computer generated image|computer generated image]].

===Remarks===
*If the preview is watched following the end credits of [[Baddest of the Bands]], The Stick appears in the background behind Bubs' stand, still covered in toilet paper. Watching the preview from the main menu, however, does not show The Stick at all.
*It took Strong Bad over 4 1/2 years to complete this "blockbuster", as [[dangeresque 3]] marked the 114th day of production.
*In the tutorial for this episode, Strong Bad wears the Dangeresque shades throughout most of it, taking them off at Bubs' Consession Stand.

===Goofs===
*The [[Lappy 486]] has a black outline in this episode, instead of it being colored as in every other appearence.
*If you look out the window after Cutesy Buttons gets kidnapped, the video of Marzipan watching Credenza in the shark pond will play, except without the animation of Marzipan.
*In extended play, several scenes involving Renaldo will replay without his being there.
*The "Renaldo Fun Sheets" is actually a pillowcase.

====Wii Version====
*The manual page in the catacombs area is unobtainable in extended play.

===Inside References===
*In [[stunt double]], Strong Bad advertised that Dangeresque 3 would be in 3D, although the 3D he mentioned was [[wikipedia:Anaglyph|anaglyphic]] rather than computer animation.
*The two pieces of art in Dangeresque's office depict Strong Sad's dragon from [[dragon]], and the "Deutsch Master" painting from [[portrait]].
**Additionally, the painting that Perducci carries with him throughout the movie is the [[Painting of a Guy with a Big Knife]].
*Diet Brown originated in [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 13]].
*Several references are made to previous SBCG4AP episodes. Notably:
**Coach Z's stunt double was a potted plant that appeared in the King of Town's castle in [[Homestar Ruiner]].
**The autopilot in the car was Bubs' security robot in [[Baddest of the Bands]].
**When Strong Sad acts as Homestar's stunt double, he wears the float head Strong Bad used in [[Homestar Ruiner]].
**One of Homestar's "demands" was a million dollars in quesos, which was the Strong Badian currency in [[Strong Badia the Free]].
**''Food Related Love'', as performed by Pomstar in [[Baddest of the Bands]], is re-used as backing music at Cutesy's House.
**In extended play, inspecting the skulls in the catacombs will have Strong Bad reveal that they're the same ones Marzipan made for Strong Mad's short-lived Country in [[Strong Badia the Free]].
**The joystick control for the helicopter set is the pogo stick used for the Race to the End of the Race in [[Homestar Ruiner]].
*In the opening, a billboard can be seen advertising for [[The Pizz]] from [[pizza joint]].
*When in Strong Borneo, Dangeresque and Renaldo use the Riverquest Safariventure box from [[theme park]]. During extended play, Strong Bad will acknowledge this, even going as far as mentioning the email itself.
*When Perducci is asked to shuffle cards for the first time, a reference is made to his [[lack of visible arms]]
*Strong Bad's line "Oh, so ''that's'' how come you don't dance no more" mimcks a line from [[New Boots]].
*The game's finale features another instance of [[kicking The Cheat]].
*In extended play, Strong Bad mentions that one of the matte paintings was painted by a guy named [[Matt Chapman|Matt]].

===Real-World References===
*The format of the text in the opening credits is the same as the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Lethal_Weapon|Lethal Weapon]]''.
**When you point the nunchuck gun at Dangeresque Too, he asks, "Do you want to get crazy? Oh, I'll get crazy!" Mel Gibson's character Martin Riggs says something very similar in ''Lethal Weapon''.
*In responding to the first email, Dangeresque says that in basic training at Crooked Cop Academy you learn how to make cool noises with your mouth. This is a reference [[Wikipedia:Michael Winslow|Michael Winslow]]'s ''[[Wikipedia:Police Academy (franchise)|Police Academy]]'' character Sgt. Larvell "Motor Mouth" Jones.
*The videotape of the villain brushing The Cheat's hair while his face is hidden references James Bond villain [[Wikipedia:Ernst_Stavro_Blofeld|Ernst Stavro Blofeld]].
*Dangeresque misunderstands Perducci's game of rock, paper, [[Wikipedia:Baccarat|Baccarat]], as rock, paper, [[Wikipedia:Burt_Bacharach|Burt Bacharach]].
*When Perducci plays the Ace of Spades, Dangeresque says it in a similar sounding way to the chorus of the [[Wikipedia:Motorhead|Motorhead]] song "[[Wikipedia:Ace of Spades (song)|Ace of Spades]]".
*The "time card" in Perducci's game is for ''Embarrassing Idol'', one of the shows being filmed at the TV studio in [[Wikipedia:Situation: Comedy (Sam & Max)|Sam and Max Episode 102: Situation: Comedy]]. The card itself comes from [[Wikipedia:Situation: Comedy (Sam & Max)|Sam and Max Episode 204: Chariot of the Dogs]].
** If you use the phone in Dangeresque's office, one of the responses involves Dangeresque getting a call from the Commissioner, asking him to do something "to a rabbit", and Dangeresque telling him "You got the wrong number", another reference to the ''Sam and Max'' franchise: the Freelance Police received most of their assignments over the phone from "the Commissioner".
**One of the backgrounds in the Snap Shak is for Sam & Max's office building and Bosco's Inconvenience Store.
*Dangeresque shouts "Another boot to the head, and another for Jenny and The Wimp!" as he fights the Bear Holding a Shark, a reference to [[Wikipedia:Last Will and Temperament|"Last Will and Temperament"]], a skit by The Frantics where various heirs in a will get "boots to the head".
*The term "a Jessica Tandy joint" refers to the British-American actress, [[Wikipedia:Jessica Tandy|Jessica Alice Tandy]] and director [[Wikipedia:Spike Lee|Spike Lee]], who uses the credit "A Spike Lee Joint" rather than the typical "A Spike Lee Film."
*When preparing to go to the sun, Strong Bad uses the phrase "It's dark and I'm wearing sunglasses", a quote from the 1980 movie ''[[Wikipedia:The_Blues_Brothers_(film)|The Blues Brothers]]''.
*The "ruby" on powering Dr. Experimento's rocket is a red [[Wikipedia:Ring Pop|Ring Pop]] candy.
*Strong Bad's line "It's what plants crave!" references the film ''[[Wikipedia:Idiocracy|Idiocracy]]'', in which a drink called Brawndo is promoted with the same slogan.
*Strong Bad once refers to Homestar as "Mushmouth", the name of a character in [[Bill Cosby|Bill Cosby's]] ''[[Wikipedia:Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids|Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids]]''.
*Strong Bad mentions the [[Wikipedia:XFL|XFL]], a defunct football league run by [[professional wrestling|pro wrestling]] promoter Vince McMahon.
*The Purple Nose of Cairo that Sultry Buttons steals in Cairo references the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Purple_Rose_of_Cairo|The Purple Rose of Cairo]]''.
*Dangeresque attempts to disable the drill in the sun base by attacking it with the "Four Fingered Exploding Fist of the Lotus Knuckle" maneuver, similar to the "Five Point Exploding Heart Technique" used by The Bride to kill Bill in the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Kill Bill|Kill Bill]]''.
*When Dadgeresque dies, Dangeresque responds by stringing together the names of a bunch of sappy love songs - specifically [[Wikipedia:Bette Midler|Bette Midler's]] "[[Wikipedia:Wind Beneath My Wings|Wind Beneath My Wings]]" and the [[Wikipedia:The Carpenters|Carpenters']] "[[Wikipedia:We've Only Just Begun|We've Only Just Begun]]" - but ends randomly with [[Wikipedia:Cyndi Lauper|Cyndi Lauper's]] "[[Wikipedia:She_Bop|She Bop]]".
*When Dangeresque finds the third manual page (in Strongborneo), he remarks that the map of the solar system is "out of date". This is likely a reference to the fact that [[Wikipedia:Pluto|Pluto]], which appears on the map, is no longer classified as a planet.
*When Dangeresque aims his gun at Uzi Bazooka after Dadgeresque is killed, he rather embellishes on a quote from ''[[Wikipedia:The Princess Bride|The Princess Bride]]''.
*Strong Bad calls the impostor informant "[[Wikipedia:Trader Joe's|Traitor Joe]]".
*Strong Bad saying that the paintings in the office "belong in a museum!" is a reference to the ''[[Wikipedia:Indiana Jones franchise|Indiana Jones]]'' film series.

** If you use the phone in Dangeresque's office, one of the responses involves Dangeresque getting a call from the Commissioner, asking him to do something "to a rabbit", and Dangeresque telling him "You got the wrong number", another reference to the ''Sam and Max'' franchise: the Freelance Police received most of their assignments over the phone from "the Commissioner".
**One of the backgrounds in the Snap Shak is for Sam & Max's office building and Bosco's Inconvenience Store.
*Dangeresque shouts "Another boot to the head, and another for Jenny and The Wimp!" as he fights the Bear Holding a Shark, a reference to [[Wikipedia:Last Will and Temperament|"Last Will and Temperament"]], a skit by The Frantics where various heirs in a will get "boots to the head".
*The term "a Jessica Tandy joint" refers to the British-American actress, [[Wikipedia:Jessica Tandy|Jessica Alice Tandy]] and director [[Wikipedia:Spike Lee|Spike Lee]], who uses the credit "A Spike Lee Joint" rather than the typical "A Spike Lee Film."
*When preparing to go to the sun, Strong Bad uses the phrase "It's dark and I'm wearing sunglasses", a quote from the 1980 movie ''[[Wikipedia:The_Blues_Brothers_(film)|The Blues Brothers]]''.
*The "ruby" on powering Dr. Experimento's rocket is a red [[Wikipedia:Ring Pop|Ring Pop]] candy.
*Strong Bad's line "It's what plants crave!" references the film ''[[Wikipedia:Idiocracy|Idiocracy]]'', in which a drink called Brawndo is promoted with the same slogan.
*Strong Bad once refers to Homestar as "Mushmouth", the name of a character in [[Bill Cosby|Bill Cosby's]] ''[[Wikipedia:Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids|Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids]]''.
*Strong Bad mentions the [[Wikipedia:XFL|XFL]], a defunct football league run by [[professional wrestling|pro wrestling]] promoter Vince McMahon.
*The Purple Nose of Cairo that Sultry Buttons steals in Cairo references the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Purple_Rose_of_Cairo|The Purple Rose of Cairo]]''.
*Dangeresque attempts to disable the drill in the sun base by attacking it with the "Four Fingered Exploding Fist of the Lotus Knuckle" maneuver, similar to the "Five Point Exploding Heart Technique" used by The Bride to kill Bill in the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Kill Bill|Kill Bill]]''.
*When Dadgeresque dies, Dangeresque responds by stringing together the names of a bunch of sappy love songs - specifically [[Wikipedia:Bette Midler|Bette Midler's]] "[[Wikipedia:Wind Beneath My Wings|Wind Beneath My Wings]]" and the [[Wikipedia:The Carpenters|Carpenters']] "[[Wikipedia:We've Only Just Begun|We've Only Just Begun]]" - but ends randomly with [[Wikipedia:Cyndi Lauper|Cyndi Lauper's]] "[[Wikipedia:She_Bop|She Bop]]".
*When Dangeresque finds the third manual page (in Strongborneo), he remarks that the map of the solar system is "out of date". This is likely a reference to the fact that [[Wikipedia:Pluto|Pluto]], which appears on the map, is no longer classified as a planet.
*When Dangeresque aims his gun at Uzi Bazooka after Dadgeresque is killed, he rather embellishes on a quote from ''[[Wikipedia:The Princess Bride|The Princess Bride]]''.
*Strong Bad calls the impostor informant "[[Wikipedia:Trader Joe's|Traitor Joe]]".
*Strong Bad saying that the paintings in the office "belong in a museum!" is a reference to the ''[[Wikipedia:Indiana Jones franchise|Indiana Jones]]'' film series.

Lack of Visible Arms

Blu Aardvark — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 04:21:58 GMT

Blu Aardvark: /* References */

[[Image:Homestar's Arms.PNG|thumb|"Homestarms"]]
One of the ultimate mysteries in the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner body of work]] is that [[Homestar Runner]], [[Marzipan]], [[The King of Town]], [[Homsar]], and many other characters all '''lack visible arms''' and hands. In spite of this, they have the ability to pick up, carry, and manipulate objects at will. The most common explanations for this phenomenon are that they either have invisible arms or can manipulate objects with some kind of [[Wikipedia:psychokinesis|psychokinesis]]. Some suggest the latter over the former, as these characters' articles of clothing rarely have sleeves where arms would normally be. Some claim the opposite, since there are few instances in which a character manipulates any object from afar. Others believe that there is a combination of both factors in use. Usually none of the other characters seem to pay any attention to this curiosity, possibly because they have become accustomed to it, although sometimes their lack of arms is referenced.

Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective Walkthrough

Blu Aardvark — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 18:30:43 GMT

Blu Aardvark: I think this is officially no longer a stub

[[Image:SBCG4AP Dangeresque.PNG|thumb|"I've finally finished ''Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective'', so you can all EAT IT!"]]A totally incomplete walkthrough to ''[[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]] Episode 4: [[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]]''.

{{spoiler}}

==Legend==
A description of events will be written in plaintext.

* '''Mandatory actions will be bulleted and written in boldface.'''
* Actions that increase your awesomeness rating, but are not mandatory, will be bulleted and written in plaintext.
* ''Optional actions that might help you understand the scene will be bulleted and written in italics.''

==Walkthrough==

===Office===
After the intro, you'll be playing as Dangeresque within the movie. You're in the Office now. Unlike previous SBCG4AP episodes, this is your home base, and the game will auto-save when you enter here. There's a knock at the door.

* '''Dangeresque's favorite nunchuck gun is sitting on the table. Make sure you hold on to this!'''
* '''Next to that is a strange trinket. Yeah, grab that too.'''
* Answer the phone for a celebrity name drop.
* '''Now answer the door.'''

In will walk Renaldo (Coach Z) and Dangeresque Too (Homestar Runner). Renaldo's retiring soon, so the heroes are having a small party.

* You get awesomeness points every time you aim your nunchuck gun at a character. You've got two characters here, so aim at both of them.
* '''Take Renaldo's drink.'''
* '''Now head for the door. Slightly missing her cue will be Cutesy Buttons (Marzipan).'''

She wants you to get the formula that will save the rainforest that she believes to be in Strongborneo. She'll also bring her plant Credenza onto the set, to Strong Bad's annoyance.

* Aim your nunchuck gun at her, too.
* '''And take Credenza for a, er, walk. Anything to get the plant off the set!'''
* '''Now open the map and head to Strongborneo.'''

'''Checkpoint:''' You'll have nunchucked three characters and have one celebrity name drop. You should be carrying the nunchuck gun, trinket, diet soda, and Credenza.

===Strongborneo===

Strong Badia is probably the best-looking set in the movie, and with a trickle-from-a-hose river/quicksand and cardboard box boat, that should speak volumes. However, it's disconnected from the rest of The Field this time, so don't bother trying to get the other locations on your map just yet. Renaldo will follow you around for most of the early parts of the movie, so you can speak with him for advice.

* '''What you have to do here is shoot the Stop Sign with your nunchuck gun. This will reveal a hole.'''
* '''Try to reach through the hole. Too small, but Renaldo's arms are skinnier, so he'll try. Oops, this triggers a monster! Of the Bear-holding-a-shark variety!'''
* '''Use the nunchuck gun on the monster to defeat it and save Renaldo.'''

In the chaos, however, Renaldo gripped the formula too tight, reducing it to a pile of dust. He will, however, mention that a Professor Experimento might be able to fix it. His lab will be added to your map.

* '''Head for the Secret Lab.'''

===Secret Lab===

Set in Strong Bad's computer room, Professor Experimento's lab is full of cardboardium wonders, including a nearly-completed rocket! He also dabbles in chemistry, so perhaps he can help you out. Unfortunately, he's hot-tempered, and throws scissors that <strike>bounce off of</strike> stick to the wall as you enter.

* '''Take the scissors. They could come in handy!'''
* '''Talk to Experimento (Pom Pom). He'll agree to fix the formula if you agree to get back the disk that was stolen from him. He'll then write the ingredients he needs on the chalkboard: Bubbly Drink, Stickanee Flower, and Yellow Hair.'''
* '''Hey, you already have one ingredient! Give Experimento the Diet Soda.'''
* Nunchuck-gun Experimento, 'cuz he's there.
* One of the pieces of Experimento's rocket is a manual page for Space Circus Catastrophe. Nab it.
* You can play the "Space Simulator" (which is the Fun Machine). Get 15,000 points to increase your awesomeness.
* '''Seems like the yellow hair should be easy, so maybe you should check out the Office again.'''

'''Checkpoint:''' You'll now have four characters nunchucked and a manual page. You'll have lost the diet soda but gained the safety scissors.

===Office===

* Use the scissors on Cutesy Buttons. Oops, Marzipan breaks from the script and refuses to part with even a small bit of hair. Cut!
* ''Examine the window behind Marzipan to try to get her to turn around. Nope, she's not terribly interested in what she sees. Do take note of the fact that the Shark Pond is visible outside of the window; that will be important later.''
* '''Okay, let's hit Brainblow City!'''

===Brainblow City===

This is The Field, minus Strong Badia (which, remember, is cut off from the rest of the field as it's a different set.) The Brainblow City icon on the map sends you to the Brick Wall, but you can still get all of the other usual map locations (except the Concession Stand) by walking near them as usual.

* Check the Stickanee Tree for a Celebrity Name Drop.
* '''The Stick...anee Tree has a flower on it. Success! Take it.'''
* '''Walk far enough and you'll find the Shark Pond. Marzipan didn't care enough to look at this earlier, so maybe you can throw something in there do distract her long enough to get that hair sample. How about Credenza?'''
* While you're here, aim your sawed-off single-barreled nunchuck gun squarely at the sign on the far right side of the City (near the Concessi... er, Prison) to get "Renaldo Fun Sheets".
* '''Okay, enough here for now, back to the Office!'''

===Office===

* '''Direct Marzipan's attention to the window again and she'll be appalled to see Credenza floating in the "shark pond".
* '''Take advantage of her distraction to collect that hair she wouldn't give you before... though she rather violently makes you get Credenza back anyway!'''
* '''Okay, you have your ingredients, time to talk to Experimento! Head for the Secret Lab.'''

'''Checkpoint:''' You should have lost Credenza, but in exchange, you'll have the Flower and the Hair. You'll also have one Merchandise item, and you'll have witnessed one outtake. Celebrity names have been dropped twice, and you'll have one costume item.

===Secret Lab===

* '''Give Experimento the hair and flower and he'll fix your potion! Success! Now to give this to Cutesy Buttons.'''
* '''Head back to the Office.'''

===Office===

Cutesy Buttons is missing! There must be a clue as to where she went! An incredibly subtle clue that you'll have to comb the room for hours looking for. Or, conversely, it could be a television that Dangeresque and Renaldo go out of their way to indicate without admitting it.

* '''Click on the television to see that some evil mastermind who definitely isn't Dangeresque Too with The Cheat in his lap making demands of you.'''

Renaldo's willing to give in to his demands, but Dangeresque refuses. Renaldo suggests speaking to Baron Darin Diamonocle for tips. He was previously sent to prison by Dangeresque. The Brainblow City Prison will be added to your map, even though you can get to it from any part of Brainblow City.

* '''Head to the Prison.'''

===Prison===

* '''Speak to Diamonocle (Bubs). You can ask him how to get Cutesy Buttons back, but he'll want to know why he should help you in the first place. You can select either the Angel or Devil option to get him to cooperate,''' but select the "Devil" option for an extra name drop.
* '''He'll tell you to get Perducci's help from the Old Club to find the blueprints to the mastermind's lair, and suggests speaking to Renaldo about the man who can help rescue Cutesy Buttons.'''
* Be sure to remind him that you're not friends, though, with that nunchuck gun of yours.
* Check the grass near the prison to find a Monocle.
* '''Renaldo's over by the Brick Wall, so speak with him. He'll reveal that your father used to rescue kidnappees, but one case in particular drove him mad. He's probably in Venice now, so you'll have to head to <strike>France</strike> Italy!'''
* Use the formula on the Stickanee Tree and it will sprout a box of cereal for some reason that clearly has nothing to do with marketing. Whatever, take the cereal.
* '''Now let's take care of Perducci first. Head to the Old Club.'''

'''Checkpoint:''' You should now have the finished formula, in addition to two merchandise items , five nunchucked characters, and three celebrity names dropped.

===Old Club===

Club Technochocolate's really gone downhill, though the presence of crime boss Perducci (The King of Town) and his muscular henchman Killingyouguy (Strong Mad) might have a lot to do with that. Let's see if you can get those blueprints from him. The dialogue will start on its own. Perducci will only give up the blueprints if you beat him in a game of Rock, Scissors, Baccarat. Best card played wins, and nothing beats rock. Except paper. Looks like you're going to have to beat him at his own nonsensical game...

* On first entering, the cutscene will result in another celebrity name drop.
* Interrogate the criminals with your nunchuck gun! It won't do any good, but it's worth some awesomeness points, right?
* '''You can't win the first round, as Perducci will play the Ace of Spades, the best card around.'''
* '''Ask him to keep shuffling until an ordinary playing card is the one on top. Then tell him to deal, so that you get the Ace of Spades.'''
* '''You can play it, but he'll put a rock on the table. Not a rock card, a rock. Yeah, he's definitely making the rules up as he goes. Unfortunately, rock beats everything (except paper), so you lose again.'''
* '''Perducci will gloat to Killingyouguy about his victory, turning away from the table. Why not take the rock for yourself in the meantime?'''
* '''Play another round, but play the rock. Perducci will frantically try to come up with something that beats rock, but only paper beats rock, so he'll put his blueprints on your rock. He wins again!'''
* '''Only he's gloating again, so take the blueprints anyway. Perducci will be upset. No one cares.'''
* Use your rock on the bottles in the back of the club to get a Dangeresque doll. And you'll even get to keep the rock!
* And grab the fedora near the door.
* '''Okay, time to head to Venice.'''

'''Checkpoint:''' You'll now have the rock and the blueprints. You should have four celebrity names and three pieces of merchandise, and seven characters will have been nunchucked. You'll have two costume items.

===Venice===

Amazing what a cardboard gondola can do to a stone bridge, huh? Senor Cardgage is milling about here, and Strong Bad decides he'd make a ''perfect'' Dadgeresque! Time to learn about rescuing kidnapped people.

* Could you aim your nunchuck gun at your own father? You'd better, because it gets you some more Awesomeness.
* '''Talk to him about yourself. Senor Cardgage clearly has no idea what's going on, but Strong Bad force-fits his ramblings into the plot. You'll "learn" that the kidnapping case Dadgeresque was never able to solve took place in the Malvies Catacombs.'''
* '''Okay, let's head to the Catacombs to see what we can find.'''

===Catacombs===

It's the King of Town's castle. There's a strange mural on the wall and a cardboard door on the far end of the room.

* ''Examine the mural. It will show a 3x3 display of Mexican food items, only the corners are missing. There are also jumbled lines and images connected to them. You can follow them to determine what goes where. Remember the whole setup. Or just do what I'm going to tell you.''
* '''Examine the door and it will open to a new room.'''

There's a strange structure with 3x3 blocks here. All the blocks have Mexican food items on them (except the one in the middle).

* ''The door in this room won't open on its own.''
* '''Examine the structure. You'll have to flip the tiles to match the order on the mural. Specifically, you want to change the following:'''
** '''The upper-left tile should be salsa.'''
** '''The upper-right tile should be the nachos on the blue plate.'''
** '''The middle-right tile should be the dessert plate with the cherry.'''
** '''The lower-left tile should be the taco.'''
** '''All the other tiles are already correct.'''

A panel will open revealing a trinket that looks amazingly like the one you have! The door will also open, but behind it is a... well, it's ''supposed'' to be a monster, but The Cheat forgot to add in the CGI effects, so you'll just have to make do with Strong Sad in a really silly-looking motion sensor getup.

* Use your nunchuck gun on the monster! Nope, it's not even slowed down!
* ''How about taking the trinket from the puzzly thing? Nope, won't budge.''
* '''Use your own trinket, though, and the two will merge into some sort of heart thing. Hey, the "monster" has a heart-shaped cavity in its chest!'''
* '''Grab the heart and use it on the monster. It will suddenly be crushed by boxes.'''
* Select the middle panel of the puzzle again for a page to the manual.
* Click on one of the fallen boxes (the small one) to salvage some boots.
* '''Now head into the third room.'''
* Your metal detector is here, for no good reason other than the fact that a SBCG4AP game wouldn't be complete without it.
* What a SBCG4AP game could be complete without, however, is The Poopsmith in a silly girly wig. Interrogate him/her with the nunchuck gun! Well, try anyway.
* '''Talk to him/her to learn that s/he is the kidnapping victim your father had previously searched for! Not only did you save "her", but now your name is in the paper! Time to talk to Dadgeresque about this!'''

'''Checkpoint:''' You should have lost the trinket but gained the metal detector. You will have nunchucked ten characters, and you'll have two manual pages and gained three costume items.

===Hideout===

Now you will enter a cut scene where you will show Dadgeresque about solving the case. After which you and Renaldo follow him to the Kidnapper's hideout (Funny, that looks just like the roof of Bubs' concession stand) As you try to break in, you find out that *gasp* it's a trap set by none other than....Dangeresque Too? Now the armless traitor wants to be called ''Uzi Bazooka''. After a brief confrontation he shoots Dadgeresque. Dangeresque shows his soft side as he *sniff* cries over his dying father. But now, it is time to get some revenge!

Now you have a Mexican standoff situation here. Guns and gun-type objects are pointing everywhere, and poor Cutesy Buttons is trapped behind enemy lines. You'll have to do something to save her... and oh, Uzi Bazooka still has those darn launch codes. You'll have to do some major distracting to achieve both goals.

*''Pointing your Nunchuk gun at any one of the three enemies (Uzi Bazooka, The Cheat, and Killingyouguy) will make everyone change the direction in which he is pointing his weapon. Pointing it at Renaldo resets everyone to their original positions.''
*'''Point the Nunchuk Gun at Uzi Bazooka. Killingyouguy should take a step forward, and Cutesy can move behind him.'''
*'''Point it at Killingyouguy next. The Cheat will step forward as Uzi steps back, and Cutesy can move a little further.'''
*'''Aim it at The Cheat now. Uzi will step forward as Killingyouguy steps back, and Cutesy will sneak behind Uzi.'''
*'''Aim at Uzi again and, with Uzi distracted, Cutesy Buttons will nab the disk and run toward you!'''

Now you have no reason to be here, so 'it looks like you're gonna have to jump'! (Cue the stunt doubles!)

===Car Chase===
Dangeresque will rush to the Dangcaresque in order to evade his enemies, but Killingyouguy is right on his tail, and he can run faster than your stationary speeding car! Worse, the brakes have been cut! Cutesy Buttons managed to find a helicopter and is coming to get you, but you're gonna have to figure out how to reach it safely... and maybe in style. Your voice activated auto-pilot can help, but it can't help you stop!
*'''Tell the Autopilot to deploy the Sawmerang Hubcaps. The Cheat's hand will slap a crudely drawn circular sawblade onto the front tire. Jump onto the hood of the car and grab that thing!'''
*'''Command the autopilot to let loose an oil spill. And now that Killingyouguy is negotiating with the laws of physics, you have a golden opportunity to knock him completely off balance. Let's see, the Nunchuck Gun is no good, and the rock won't do the trick.... but maybe you just happened to pick up an aerodynamic saw blade at some point?'''
*'''Even though you managed to knock him over, he's still not giving up. Yeesh, henchmen. But notice that he's now a good distance behind your car. You should be able to tell the Autopilot to activate the emergency hatch.'''
*''The hatch is up, but you can't use it, since it will collapse if you step on it. You'll have to prop it up with something. Something big and keeping a consistent pace directly behind the Dangcaresque, maybe?''
*'''Climb down to the front of the car for the big stunt shot. Dangeresque will have to put his life on the line in order to slow his speeding vehicle! Thanks to your bravery and skill (not to mention camera work), the hatch is now resting directly on top of Killingyouguy's head!'''
*'''Climb to the roof, up the hatch, and to freedom!'''

===Helicopter===
You give a grateful Cutesy Buttons the formula, and she parachutes out of the scene. However, your troubles are far from over, as Uzi Bazooka now phones you with some disturbing information: Renaldo is now his hostage, and he has been taken to the sun, where a secret base has inexplicably been set up. You'll have to come and GET him... er, COME and get him, or.... you get the idea.

*''Let's see... now who do you know that could send a rocket to the sun?''
*'''Back to the secret lab!'''

===Secret Lab===
Uh oh... looks like there's a bit of a hitch in that whole rescuing Renaldo thing. Your former flame Sultry Buttons (she sure looks familiar) is here, and she's not terribly happy with you for leaving her hanging. Worse, after you parted ways, she has turned to jewel thievery, and is now making off with the ruby that Professor Experimento needs to power his rocket! But she leaves a few items for you to remember her by: a romantic photo of the two of you in Paris, a hint that it might take a now-extinct Stickanee flower to win back her affections, and a very large knife that she used to pin aforementioned photo to the wall.

Unfortunately, that's not all: the Doc still needs the launch codes you promised to get him, and you just remembered that Cutesy Buttons still has them!
*'''Take the photo and knife from the wall.''' ''Sultry is quite prominently holding a Stickanee flower in this picture, and Dangeresque is wearing a pretty silly mustache.''
*'''Make a beeline for Cutesy's House.'''

'''Checkpoint:''' You should now have the Knife, the Romantic Photo, and the Sawmerang Hubcap.

===Cutesy's House===
*'''Talk to Cutesy Buttons and bring up the subject of the disk.'''
It becomes pretty clear that Cutesy is more interested in her precious rainforest than saving the world; she tells you that she gave Professor Experimento's disk of highly important launch codes to a man who offered her a sapling topiary in exchange. Your mood is not improved by the news that the man in question is none other than the long-despised Perducci! The only consolation you get from this conversation is that Cutesy overheard him saying something about going to Venice.

*''While you're there, admire her garden. That formula is some stuff! Turns out if you have a part of the Stickanee tree, you can get a new flower.''
*'''But first, let's get that disk! To Venice, it is!'''

===Venice===
Once you enter Venice, you will see two things of interest: Sultry Buttons disappearing over the horizon and someone who looks like Strong Sad in a goofy mustache standing nearby.
*Brandish the Nunchuk gun at The Informant. Feelin' more awesome already!
*'''Talk to the Informant (leaving Strong Bad to lament the accent Strong Sad adds to the role.)'''
*''The Informant doesn't know where Perducci has gone, but does mention that he's a touch-psychic, able to tell something about people from the objects they've handled. You have two objects handled by Perducci, in fact.''
*'''Give the Informant the blueprints, and he'll observe they come from Ireland. Give him the rock, and he'll observe it comes from Tokyo. Ireland is probably your best bet right now.'''
*''You also have two objects handled by Sultry Buttons - show them to him for hints on how to win her heart.''
*'''Fly to Ireland.'''

===Ireland===

Hey, this place looks just like Venice. Except for the sheep. Again, you arrive just in time to see Sultry Buttons leave the area. Hey, and there's a familiar-looking painting peeking out from under the bridge.

*'''Pick up the painting. It's definitely the same one from the club in which you beat Perducci at his own stupid game.'''
*''Hey, and there's that Informant again!''
*'''Or, more accurately, his brother. Talk to him about Perducci.'''
*'''In what you can garner from that Irish accent, you learn that Perducci has left for Cairo. Geez, how many frequent flyer miles does that guy have?'''
*'''Mention the painting, or bring it out. The Informant notes that it was stolen from the Mummy's Tomb in '63.'''
*While you're there, inspect the podium and then talk to the Informant about it. Whoops, looks like someone forgot to give Strong Sad his script - he attempts to ad-lib, but flubs it. What a blooper!
*'''Chase that lead to Cairo!'''

'''Checkpoint:''' You should now have the Painting, and two Out-takes.

===Cairo===
Ooh, the magnificent cardboard pyramids. Like before, Sultry disappears before you can have a word with her. And look, there's yet another Informant here.
*'''You know the drill. Talk to the Informant about Perducci. He'll tell you that he headed to Tokyo.'''
*'''Talk to him about the painting, too. He mentions that Perducci stole it from a mummy's tomb nearby.''' ''Also that it was stolen in the Fall.''
*'''Go to Tokyo.'''

===Tokyo===
Except for that majestic mountain in the distance, the scene is getting pretty familiar. Sultry evades you again, and yet another Informant waits by the bridge.
*'''Yes, you have to talk to him again. This time, Perducci has apparently relocated to Paris.'''
*'''Show him the painting. He says something about an ancient Japanese temple. Hmmm....'''
*Snoop around with the Metal Detector to find a bullet with Perducci's name on it. Literally.
*'''Off to Paris!'''

===Paris===
The Eiffel Tower stands majestically in the background, Sultry Buttons makes her exit before you can get a word in edgewise, and the Informant skulks around next to the bridge - déja vu.

*'''Speak with the Informant about Perducci. He suggests the crime lord might have fled to Ireland. But something just doesn't sound right about this!'''
*''According to at least two of the Informants you've already encountered, there are only four brothers. But you've talked to FIVE! Apparently, someone's not telling the truth, and Dangeresque is determined to find out just who!
*''Now that you think of it, not all the stories about Perducci's painting have added up. Who was it that said something different?''
*'''Head for Tokyo - you've got a liar to expose!'''

===Tokyo===
The scene is exactly the same as it was the last five or so times, but right now, that's not important.
*'''Shove that Nunchuk gun into the Informant's face! He'll ask you why you think he's lying, and several options will pop up.'''
*'''Well, ''obviously'', Perducci's painting couldn't have possibly been stolen from a Japanese temple if two of the Informants verified that it was taken from a Mummy's Tomb in Egypt!'''

You find out that not only has this particular Informant been lying to protect Perducci, but that he is actually Perducci himself! A struggle ensues over the painting, but in the skirmish, Dangeresque acquires the missing codes, and Perducci, defeated once again, slinks off into the night. Or rather, to his trailer. Or maybe the snack table.

*''What else did we need? Oh yes, the ruby, held by Sultry. But first we gotta get her to stand still. What did she want, again?''
*''We need a new flower - remember Cutesy Buttons telling us we could grow a new one if we had a part of the Stickanee tree?''

'''Checkpoint:''' You've lost the Painting, but gained the disk of Launch Codes. You should also have nunchucked eleven characters, and found your first bullet.

===Stickanee Tree===
Ah, the last known Stickanee tree. Can we bear to lop off a bit just to take it to Cutesy's place for a new flower? Sure we can!

*'''Use the knife on the Stickanee tree. This hurts us more than it hurts the tree — no wait, that was a lie. Oh well, grab the resulting branch anyway.'''
*While we're here, let's do some violence to that incomprehensible Agent Blue. Whack it with a rock, and aim your nunchuck gun at it. Watch open-mouthed as its water spout shoots overhead, knocking the box off the top of the Snap Shak. Have a look inside for another clothing item!
*Let's follow our nose. Or the metal detector. There's another bullet by the Cool Car - it must have fallen out of Killingyouguy's pocket during the car chase.
*'''Let's go plant our branch at Cutesy's place!'''

===Cutesy's House===
*'''Plant your branch in Cutesy's enriched garden. Through the magics of cinematography, we now have a brand-new flower in just thirty seconds! And we get through an eight-minute spiel from Marzipan in just one!'''
*Use your metal detector to find Sultry's bullet near the flower patch.
*Hang around for a bit too — Cutesy will occasionally say things to you, and on one occasion, will get your name wrong. Who's this "Strong Bad" of which she speaks?
*''So what do we do with this flower? Where does Sultry have fond memories? What city is on the photograph of you two that she left?''

===Paris===
Of course! But as ever, Sultry leaves as soon as you arrive. But remember the informant suggesting you to leave flowers where you know she'll be? Where do we know she'll be?

*'''Leave the Stickanee flower on the podium.'''
*'''She's not going to come out while we're here watching, so clear out by opening up your map, and clicking on Paris again. Don't go elsewhere, because she'll get bored of waiting.'''
*There she is! Let's point our nunchuck gun at her. That's what love-birds do, right?
*'''Okay, so they don't. Talk to her now. Dangeresque promises to shower her with gems if she gives him gems.'''

As Dangeresque scores a pair of gems - the ruby and a diamond-tipped diamong - poor gullible Sultry heads off to Hawai'i. Still, we got what we wanted from her. Let's go give it back to Experimento!

===Secret Lab===
We now have all the parts we need for the rocket.

*Before we go, let's show off that romantic photo of ours... to the computer. The computer responds with a game manual page.
*'''Give Experimento the ruby (for a celebrity name-drop) and the disk'''
*'''The rocket's all fixed! Last stop: the Sun.'''

'''Checkpoint:''' You should have twelve nunchucked characters, three out-takes, three manual pages, all four bullets, four clothing items, and five celebrity name-drops. You'll have gained and lost the ruby, gained the diamond and lost the disk, lost the branch, then gained and lost the Stickanee flower.

===The Sun===
You fly your ship to the sun, avoiding peanut asteroids, blasting alien clowns and rescuing stranded circus performers. Probably your best bet here is to use the bomb (A key or button, as your read in the game manual) as this cuts the performers you need to rescue to one — the score doesn't matter here. Once we get there, we find Renaldo chained up to a computer, being accosted by... Uzi Bazooka? But who should follow us into the room, but... Wait. Two Uzi Bazookas - something's funny here. The first one protests his innocence — it's Dangeresque Too! D2 and Uzi get into a struggle, leaving Dangeresque with the simple task of shooting the bad one.

*'''Shoot one. Doesn't matter which one, you'll either be hitting Strong Sad or Homestar, so you don't care but to follow the "Kill 'em both" tactic, right?

Either way, you'll manage to hit Uzi Bazooka, killing him. Or did you? Uzi stands up again — as expected, it's a robot! And its controlled by... Craig! The little yellow guy who we thought was an innocent little mascot Cheat - what he acually is that he's the anvil-headed mastermind behind all this. Dangeresque Too chases after Craig, leaving you to handle Uzi.

*Try shooting him with your nunchuck gun again. It doesn't work, but it does score us points. We need something bigger.
*''Maybe we can whack him with that drill. It's not gonna move with that chock in the way, though. Let's go have a look at that computer console.''
*'''Turns out we can change the station's orbit. Shift it to the right. This makes everything in the room lean to the right, causing the drill to roll back to the wall.'''
*'''Now we can move the chock, because it's not right under the wheels'''
*''You can try shifting the orbit back again so the drill runs into Uzi. It doesn't have much effect, though, because Uzi's made of tougher stuff. Maybe if we had something even tougher...''
*'''Stick the diamond on the tip of the drill. Shift the orbit back to the left.'''

The drill collides with Uzi, rendering him dead THIS time. After an (almost) touching scene, Uzi powers down, just in time for D2 to call for help. Dash into the next room to see Craig busily trampling all over your partner!

*Persuading him with the nunchuck gun won't work, but it does get you awesomeness.
*Shooting the tube too proves to be no use either - other than the fact that if we shoot it, we do find a pair of underpants, which Strong Bad hastily removes.
*'''Ah well, last resort: kick that yellow nuisance out of the airlock. Click on him to this end.'''

As Craig floats into deep space, the station starts falling apart around the two Dangesques. Looks like they're gonna have to jump! Roll credits. It's a happy ending for all - except for everyone who's not Strong Bad, that is. As the cast mob Strong Bad, it time for him to jump, for real this time. Roll credits... for real, this time!

'''Checkpoint:''' You should now have all fourteen characters nunchucked, and five clothing items. And you've lost the diamond. Wait, this is the end of the game, and we've barely got half the awesomeness points!

===Extended Play===
Ah, DVD extras. Wander around the place to find out some interesting facts from Strong Bad. While you're at it, we can grab the remaining awesomeness points.

*You can get all the remaining Out-Takes by visiting the Office, the Secret Lab and the Sun and clicking on things.
*While you're at the office, have a good sit in the chair. It's so comfortable, you doze off. You find yourself in a cool nighttime version of the office. Have a look around, but make sure you leave the phone off the hook. Click the door to get back to the daytime office. Click the Deutsch Master painting to get a clothing item.
*Head to Strong Borneo for the last bullet (use the metal detector between the wet patch and the boat) and the last manual page (use the knife on the trees)
*Have a look at the Cool Car one more time for the last celebrity name drop.
*Get another branch off the Stickanee tree, and head to Venice. Grab the mustache off Strong Sad on the way through, then go stick your branch in the river for the last merchandise item.

==Collectibles==
===Dangeresque 3 Merchandise===
Lots of movie-related merchandising... uh, during the movie, apparently. All are accessible in extended play.

*Perducci-O's Cereal - Pour potion or soda on the Stickanee tree (in extended play, you can give the second soda to Pom Pom again for another potion)
*Dangeresque Doll - Throw the rock at the bottles at The Club
*Killingyouguy Lunchbox - Dip a branch from the Stickanee tree into the river at the World Locations. (If you've used your branch, you can get another.)
*Renaldo Fun Sheets - Shoot at the "city limits" sign nearest to Brainblow City Prison (Bubs')

===Space Circus Manual Pages===
Once again, Strong Bad has managed to lose his game manual all over the place, this time for the game Space Circus Catastrophe. All are accessible in extended play (except for the one in the catacombs in the Wii version).

*Click on the center panel of the puzzle in the catacombs after taking the heart.
*Click the top tailfin of the ruby rocket (shows up as "???")
*Cut the plants in Strongborneo with the Large Knife
*Use the picture of Dangeresque and Sultry Buttons on the computer in the Secret Lab

===Personalized Bullets===
For once in SBCG4AP, the metal detector actually detects metal. Use the metal detector in the following locations to find a bullet signed by each of the four bad guys. All are accessible in extended play.

*Sultry's - Cutesy's house, near her flowers
*Diamonicle's - Strongborneo, between the boat and the wet area
*Killingyouguy's - By the cool car
*Perducci's - Tokyo in standard play, or Venice in extended play, near Strong Sad

==Costumes==
Dangeresque 3 has no less than seven clothing items to find, along with the usual bonus item and hidden shirt. All are accessible in extended play.
*Underwear: Shoot the tube next to the airlock at the Space Station
*French Mustache: Click on Strong Sad's mustache in extended play
*Monocle: Click on the left most grass at the jail
*Boots: Click on the smallest box in the catacombs after you knock out the monster
*Fedora: Click on the hat hanging on the left-hand wall at the old club
*Top Hat: Hit the whale with the rock, then aim your nunchuck gun at him. This knocks the box off the roof of the Snap Shak. Click on it.
*Suit Jacket: First, you must click on the chair in the office, then enter the dream sequence. Then take the phone off the hook, and return to the normal office (through door or with map). Click on the rightmost painting (the Deutsch Master painting) in the normal office
*Dangeresque Too shades: Max out awesomeness
*Green Bearalope shirt: Walk under the door in the photo booth.

==Characters Nunchucked==
Strong Bad can't resist putting his gun to good use. Score points for nunchucking each character in the movie. Many are accessible in extended play, but a number are not, so a good rule of thumb is to nunchuck a character the moment you first see them, before you do anything else. Dangeresque Too, in particular, may only be nunchucked at the very beginning, before opening the door for Cutesy Buttons, giving a very small window of opportunity.

*Renaldo (Coach Z, office or Strong Borneo)
*Dangeresque Too (Homestar, office)
*Cutsey Buttons (Marzipan, office)
*Professor Experimento (Pom Pom, lab)
*Diamonacle (Bubs, prison)

*Informant (Strong Sad, any world location)
*Uzi Bazooka (Homestar, sun)
*Craig (The Cheat, sun)

==Celebrity Name Drops==
Score awesomeness for dropping as many celebrity names into general conversation as you can. Or six, anyway. Save for the last, all of these must be done during standard play.

*Use the phone right after the game starts, you'll phone THE COMISSIONER from Sam & Max
*Click on the stick before you pluck the flower, you'll hear that Dangeresque framed the LORAX for murder.
*Talk meanly to Bubs when he's in prison - Strong Bad threatens to send him to TRI-LAMBDA.
*Show up at the club, and listen to Perducci explain rock, paper, bacarat, which Strong Bad misinterprets as BACHARACH (Burt)
*Give Professor Experimento the ruby for the rocket (it's not clear what the name is, but it's possibly VITAMIN D).
*In extended play, click on the cool car, you will see that the voice of the autopilot was going to have been provided by BILLY DEE WILLIAMS.

==Out & Spit takes==
Any movie has its share of bloopers, usually only in the DVD extras. In this case, some of them make it into the movie. The first three must be done during standard play, but the remainder are only accessible during extended play.

*Use the scissors on Marzipan in the office (before you get her to turn around)
*Run back and forth in front of Marzipan in the garden (she will eventually mispronounce your name).

''{Strong Bad as Dangeresque peers from behind Bubs' Stand.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{whispers}'' Shut up! We're rolling!

''{The screen flares "STRONG BAD is 'Dangeresque'" in blue text, but then fades into orange text. A slight beat starts.}''

''{Strong Bad and Homestar are sitting in the [[Gremlin]]. The Cheat can just barely be seen running past the car with a tree to simulate movement.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm wanted outside Brainblow City for "''Undisclothed'' Violations". If I go beyond this point, I could be shot on sight!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sounding annoyed}'' Take the shot!

''{The screen flares "HOMESTAR RUNNER is 'Dangeresque, Too?'" in blue text, but then fades to orange, just like the last caption.}''

''{Homestar is back in the Field.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You got what you had coming to you, ''{he takes off his Dangeresque, Too? glasses}'' Toe-fu!

''{The screen flares "DANGERESQUE 3: The Criminal Projective" in the same manner as "HOMESTAR RUNNER is 'Dangeresque, Too?'" and "STRONG BAD is 'Dangeresque'", then the text zooms into orange and displays "New episode every month!"}''

''{Homestar and Strong Bad are on top of Bubs' Stand.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER AND STRONG BAD:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Looks like we're gonna have to jump!

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*Strong Sad's costume in the Catacombs is a [[wikipedia:Motion capture#Optical: Passive Markers|passive optical marker motion capture suit]], or at least an approximation of one. It is similar to the "motion capture suit" worn by [[Matt Chapman]] in [[Sample Of Style Too]].

===Trivia===
*This is the first episode of SBCG4AP where the House of Strong cannot be navigated, and the first episode not to have a [[Teen Girl Squad]] comic.

===Remarks===
*If the preview is watched following the end credits of [[Baddest of the Bands]], The Stick appears in the background behind Bubs' stand, still covered in toilet paper. Watching the preview from the main menu, however, does not show The Stick at all.
*It took Strong Bad over 4 1/2 years to complete this "blockbuster", as [[dangeresque 3]] marked the 114th day of production.
*In the tutorial for this episode, Strong Bad wears the Dangeresque shades throughout most of it, taking them off at Bubs' Consession Stand.

===Goofs===
*If you look out the window after Cutesy Buttons gets kidnapped, the video of Marzipan watching Credenza in the shark pond will play, except without the animation of Marzipan.
*In extended play, several scenes involving Renaldo will replay without his being there.
*The "Renaldo Fun Sheets" is actually a pillowcase.

===Inside References===
*In [[stunt double]], Strong Bad advertised that Dangeresque 3 would be in 3D, although the 3D he mentioned was [[wikipedia:Anaglyph|anaglyphic]] rather than computer animation.
*The two pieces of art in Dangeresque's office depict Strong Sad's dragon from [[dragon]], and the "Deutsch Master" painting from [[portrait]].
*Diet Brown originated in [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 13]].
*Several references are made to previous SBCG4AP episodes. Notably:
**Coach Z's stunt double was a potted plant that appeared in the King of Town's castle in [[Homestar Ruiner]].
**The autopilot in the car was Bubs' security robot in [[Baddest of the Bands]].
**When Strong Sad acts as Homestar's stunt double, he wears the float head Strong Bad used in [[Homestar Ruiner]].

Talk:Math Kickers

Blu Aardvark — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 08:29:29 GMT

Blu Aardvark: /* Freeze */

== Full title ==
For what it's worth, the full title of the game is actually closer to "Math Kickers featuring the Algebros" [[User:TTGJake|TTGJake]] 16:19, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

== Score ==

Referring to the score in [[:Image:SBplayingMK.jpg|this image]], 666=coincidence? or not? {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 23:54, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
:A coincidence. I hope. {{User:Strongkinghomsarsmith/sig}} 14:49, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

== Freeze ==

Am I the only one for whom this game stops responding to any directional or attack movements after a while, only letting you pause or quit?
*I encountered the same problem. --[[User:Blu Aardvark|Blu Aardvark]] [[user talk:Blu Aardvark|(talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Blu Aardvark|(edits)]] 10:01, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

:::::Get better at the game; don't miss and do the combos better. {{User:Superfield Credit Union/sig}}
::::::Anyone ELSE? --Homestar Tiger (You know where)
::I discovered that I only ran into this problem when I set the game resolution to 1024x768.

== Stupid Overused Internet Cliche ==

Is that quote a reference to the Angry Video Game Nerd and the many knockoffs he's inspired? {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 00:58, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
: Or it's a reference to, y'know, ninjas being a stupid overused internet cliche? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:11, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

[http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Math_Kickers&diff=598438&oldid=598437&rcid=556761 this] Fact has been added and removed many times. Anyway, my take on it is that it says "0.7 times MORE fun" meaning it's the same amount PLUS 0.7, making it 1.7. That IS how it works. MORE fun. It SAYS that. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 14:38, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
:--You've violated the three revert rule. Reported.
::As I've already said, we don't have that rule here. That's a Wikipedia thing. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:49, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
:::Further, you ALSO reverted rather than taking it to talk. Now, can we please address the issue at hand? {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 14:54, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
::::It would be more amusing if they had said ".7 times as fun", but nope, they said "more", so DeFender is right. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:26, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

==Transcript==
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' I met this email on a north-bound train. We had some dinner, then we danced in the rain. ''{Presses enter.}''

<blockquote class="lappy email">
<div>subject: narration</div>
Have you ever been the narrator for a movie? 
 
Grant Gossman from Minnesota. 
</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad says "Minnesota" slightly slower than the rest.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' No Grossman, I have not. But you know what's way better than narrating movies? Narrating peoples' pathetic everyday lives like they're movie trailers. Ready? Let's try it!

''{Cut to Strong Sad's room. Strong Sad is sitting at his table eating a small pie. Strong Bad leans in through the doorway, smiling.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dramatically}'' Meet Strong Sad.

'''STRONG SAD:''' What? Who are you talking to?

'''STRONG BAD:''' All he ever wanted was to eat his grody ethnic food in peace.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Hey man, this is a rogan josh pot pie!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Until one day, fate threw him a curveball.

''{A small blue octopus flies across the screen, hits Strong Sad in the face with a slap and sticks to him.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' OW!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Lump of Dump Pictures proudly presents:

''{Cut to logo splash. Words appear as Strong Bad says them.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' "Whined & Dined". In the game of life, may the best man ''{slight pause}'' whine. ''{grumbles}''

''{Cut to Bubs' Concession Stand. Coach Z is talking to Bubs. Strong Bad quickly peers out around the corner of the stand. All the while, dramatic music with drums is heard.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' In a post-apocalyptic world where ''{cut to a closeup of Strong Bad}'' weird old men survive on boring conversations...

''{Cut to wide shot outside the stand.}''

'''BUBS:''' I suppose we could talk about my napkin friend for another couple hours. ''{holds up a napkin}''

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...a line will be drawn.

''{Cut to the inside of the stand.}''

'''COACH Z:''' YOUR napkin?! Well, it's got my snot balls on it!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' A hero will rise.

''{Cut back to outside the stand.}''

'''BUBS:''' Man, you don't even have a nose!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And an empire will fall.

''{Cut back to outside the stand. Bubs slams the metal gate to his concession stand shut, revealing "4actor Z" graffiti}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Factor Z!

''{Cut to Marzipan's House. Marzipan and Homestar are inside; Homestar is wearing an apron and a strange chef's hat. Strong Bad peeks in from the left, smiling again.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' They were a couple in love.

'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar, you look like a dork with that on.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Until a dorky chef's hat threatened to tear them apart.

''{Close-up of Homestar's head. Homestar shakes his head, making the hat's 'googly eyes' jiggle.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, yeah? Well maybe you look like some type of enormous... alien... cow!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{sharp offended gasp}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as music begins to play}'' This summer,—

''{Cut to the field, where Homsar is levitating on his stomach while his hat rises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —this holiday season,—

''{Cut to the side of The King of Town's castle. The Poopsmith is shoveling whatsit in the background. Slow zoom in on him}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —this Arbor Day, some smelly French studio invites YOU ''{points at camera}'' to sit through a four hour film with no dialogue and no plot. "Whatsit ''{slight pause}'' All About"

''{Title appears on the screen with the subtitle "Whatzeet All Aboot?" Cut to Strong Mad's room. Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing Battleship. Piano music begins as Strong Bad appears in the center}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Two unlikely partners...

'''STRONG MAD:''' I ATE MY BATTLESHIP!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...one brain between them.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{shrugs and sighs}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' From the creators of "I'm Surprised Strong Mad Hasn't Eaten The Cheat by Now"

'''STRONG MAD:''' ''{upset}'' Awww!

'''STRONG BAD:''' get ready to—

''{The words fly on screen as he says them.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —LUG... IT... AROUND.

''{Title appears at top of screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' "Lugnut ''{gestures toward Strong Mad, who grins}'' & Squeak" ''{pats The Cheat on the head}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{makes a The Cheat noise}''

''{Cut to bathroom. We are just behind Strong Sad as he brushes his teeth. We can see his reflection in the mirror. Strong Bad pops up just over his shoulder.}

'''STRONG BAD:''' For hundreds of years it has ''{flickers lights on and off}'' haunted mankind.

''{Cut to The Basement. Strong Sad is watching TV. Strong Bad is standing off to the side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' From the master of teenagers-on-a-camping-trip-esque horror. ''{flickers lights again and leaves them off}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Are you gonna throw a dead goose at me or something?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Comes the remake no one has been waiting for: ''{another title splash}'' "Things That Go Dump in The Night".

''{Cut to the laundry room. Strong Sad opens the dryer. Cut to a view of Strong Sad from inside it. A dead Canada goose flies out and Strong Sad screams as it knocks him over. The screen immediately goes black except for the words "Your goose is cooked."}''

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' The critics agree! "A triumph!" "A cinematic breakfast snack of some kind!" "It ''{very slight pause}'' sure was a movie!" ''{quickly}'' Now playing in select cities. ''{rapidly, in the manner of a disclaimer}'' This Strong Bad Email has been rated P for The Poopsmith and a graphic scene of The Paper.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

==Easter Eggs==
*Click on "Grossman" after Strong Bad types it to see a Strong Badman comic book cover illustrating him.
*Click on "critics" at the end of the email to see a scene with Strong Bad and Strong Sad.
:'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{still with the blue octopus on his face}'' Look, all I'm saying is it felt more like a change-up than a curveball.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' What are you, the SBEmail police now? This is like three weeks in a row!
*Click on "rated P" at the end to see a [[Powered by The Cheat]] scene featuring Marzipan as an "enormous alien cow" with Nebulon on [[The Moon]].
:'''MARZIPAN ALIEN:''' ''{in a Powered by the Cheat-style voice}'' You know, Nebulon, I've always admired your styles.
:''{Nebulon makes a sad face and slides away.}''

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*[[Wikipedia:Rogan josh|Rogan josh]] is a tomato/red pepper based lamb curry dish, created in Northern India. It is normally served over rice, not in a pot pie.
*The "change-up" and "curveball" Strong Sad mentions in the Easter egg are both [[Wikipedia:Pitch (baseball)|pitches]] in baseball. There is a [[Wikipedia:Double-entendre|double entendre]], however. While he was probably speaking literally of the octopus being thrown at him, both phrases can also be used of unexpected twists of fate, as in Strong Bad's narration.
* The title "Things That Go [[Dump]] in the Night" is a reference to the better known phrase "Things that go '''Bump''' in the Night".

===Trivia===
*The Strong Badman Easter egg was not in the email at first, but was added later on in the day.
*This email contains an instance of [[Strong Bad Smiling]].

===Remarks===
* Strong Bad emphasizes the word "gross" when he says the name "Gossman" as "Grossman". A "gross" is a term for 144 of anything, and this is the 144th email.
* Strong Bad refers to Bubs and Coach Z as "old men" in this toon. Their ages relative to the other characters are rarely mentioned, although Coach Z called himself an "old man" in [[caffeine]].
** Interestingly, although Strong Bad refers to Bubs as an old man in this e-mail and in [[isp]], he also called him "kid" in [[cheatday]].
**When Bubs is [[the Thnikkaman]], he refers to everyone except [[Coach Z]] as "kid."
*Coach Z tells Bubs that the napkin has his snotballs on it, which is odd since Coach Z appears to [[Lack of Visible Body Parts#Coach Z's Face|lack a nose]].
* When Strong Bad is narrating for "THiNGS THAT GO DUMP iN THE NiGHT", he flips the lights on and off in the basement, making us think that there is a light switch just "behind the black" on the left. However, in [[Homestar Presents: Presents]], no light switch was seen.
*Strong Bad separating Minnesota from the rest of the email in the way he did, is probably a reference to how Minnesotans pronounce the long O sound.
*Bubs tells Coach Z that he doesn't have a nose, which is ironic since they both do not have a visible nose.

===Goofs===
*During the ''Lugnut and Squeak'' scene, the Battleship images on the playing boards are slightly disproportionate when the camera zooms in on Strong Bad.
*When The Poopsmith is shoveling his pile of [[whatsit]], the whatsit on his shovel disappears before dropping to the ground.

===Glitches===
*When Marzipan's angry expression is used, blinking causes her outline to be intruded.

===Inside References===
*Strong Mad's role as Lugnut is likely a reference to his [[Yearbook Character Page#Strong Mad|Yearbook Character Page]], which described him as a "big lug".
*Strong Bad's line about boring conversations between Bubs and Coach Z is another Yearbook Character Page reference, while their argument over who owns the [[Bubs's Napkins|napkin]] is a reference to the Easter egg rap from [[cheatday]], specifically Bubs's line (to Coach Z) "But don't you steal my napkins."
*When Strong Bad says "three weeks in a row", he is referring to the previous 2 emails: [[technology]], in which Strong Sad corrected Strong Bad for calling a floppy disk a "hard disk", and [[secret identity]], when [[Hyperactive Strong Sad]] corrected Homestar's mispronunciation of "pseudonym". All three of these corrections occurred during [[Easter egg]]s.
*Even though Marzipan Alien Cow says she likes his [[style]] (unlike Strong Bad and [[1-Up]]), Nebulon mopes away just as he did in [[New Boots]].
**Matt Chapman remarked in the [[Inkhole Interview]] and [[New Boots#Commentary Transcript|New Boots DVD Commentary]] that this move is his favorite part of any toon.
*The movie title "THiNGS THAT GO DUMP iN THE NiGHT" is another appearance of [[Lowercase i's|lowercase ''i'''s]].
*There is another reference to [[pie]].
*Homestar's dorky chef's hat is another instance of a [[googly-eyed object]].
* "4actor Z" is another example of [[Internet Slang|Leetspeak]].

===Real-World References===
* The game Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing is [[Wikipedia:Battleship (game)|Battleship]]. Strong Mad's line "I ate my battleship!" is a take off from the old Battleship commercials, where one player would cry at the end "You sank my battleship!"
** The "battleship" icon depicted on the game is a silhouette of the Civil War-era Confederate [[Wikipedia:Ironclad warship|ironclad]] ''[[Wikipedia:CSS Virginia|CSS Virginia]]''.
* "Teenagers on a camping trip" likely refers to horror movies such as [[Wikipedia:Friday the 13th (film series)|Friday the 13th]] and its sequels, which primarily featured such characters.

* Strong Bad's trailer for "Factor Z" is in the style of prolific voiceover man [[Wikipedia:Don LaFontaine|Don LaFontaine]], who was responsible for almost 5,000 U.S. movie trailers, and for popularizing the phrases "in a world" and "a hero will rise."

===Fast Forward===
*Homestar's chef hat makes another appearance in [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]].

=== Commentary Transcript ===
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' I don't remember that one at all, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' I don't either, Matt.

'''MATT:''' It sounds like the ''If You Like Piña Coladas'' song.

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

'''MATT:''' It reminds me of that.

'''MIKE:''' So, I think this email, I had to check on— narrator sometimes confuses me, as to whether or not it's "narrator" or "narrarator".

'''MATT:''' No, it's nar''ra''tor.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' I always think of— uh, in ''A Clockwork Orange'' he refers to himself as his— as "your humble nar''ra''tor", so—

'''MIKE:''' Ahh—

'''MATT:''' — and I always feel like, okay, narrator. Cause clearly—

'''MIKE:''' Uh..

''{long pause}''

'''MATT:''' I think that would be really good. A Rogan Josh pot pie.

'''MIKE:''' You should make one.

''{long pause}''

'''MATT:''' Where do you think Strong Bad got that squid, Mike?

'''MIKE:''' ''{sounding bored}'' I don't know... the farmer's market maybe? ''{Matt laughs}'' You can get some gross stuff at the farmer's market.

'''MATT:''' ''{resigned}'' Probably...

''{long pause}''

'''MATT:''' Do you ever do this, Mike? Narrate real life— like it's a movie trailer?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. ''{narration voice}'' In a— email commentary that was ''pretty boring'' ...''{Matt laughs}'' Two brothers talk about ''dumb'' stuff.

'''MATT:''' Okay—

'''MIKE:''' Yeah—

'''MATT:''' —that's pretty good—

'''MIKE:''' You try.

'''MATT:''' —What's that called though?

'''MIKE:''' Oh—

'''MATT:''' What do you call—

'''MIKE:''' —the movie?

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' ''Slow''...

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' ...''Guys''

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs harder}''

'''MIKE:''' But "guys" is G-U-I-S-E.

'''MATT:''' Okay. I like that.

'''MIKE:''' It's a play on— ''{overlapping}'' It's a play on words.

'''MATT:''' Like we're wearing disguises?

'''MIKE:''' Maybe.

''{pause}''

'''MATT:''' Umm.. That's a great hat. I wish I could have that hat.

'''MIKE:''' Uh, I can make that for you for Christmas next year.

'''MATT:''' Yeah? What about the cow— I want the cow lamp and I want the— ''{sees Homsar floating}'' What?''{both laugh}'' Homsar's defying gravaties.

''{long pause}''

'''MATT:''' Say some things— was that the Canadian, uh, subtitles there?

'''MIKE:''' "Whatzeet?"

'''MATT:''' "Whatzeet all aboot"

''{pause}''

'''MIKE:''' Look, they're really playing battleship. Not Jengaship.

'''MATT:''' Mike and I work, and we play battleship all the time, because we sit, eh, facing each other, with our laptops open.

'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' —with our laptops, that's true.

'''MATT:''' So it looks like—

'''MIKE:''' We should— we should get our laptops, uh, custom— what do you call those?

'''MATT:''' a mod?

'''MIKE:''' —Case mods.

'''MATT:''' A case mod.

'''MIKE:''' We should get case mods for our laptops to look like Battleship.

'''MATT:''' Red and blue Battleships, that's a great idea!

'''MIKE:''' A little sticker paper, maybe.

'''MATT:''' We could totally get on Gizmodo — with that— with that mess. ''{pause}'' Ooo, look at that effect, I like that flickering— nighttime lights.

''{pause}''

'''MATT:''' Scary music. ''{fake screams}''

'''MIKE:''' That part does scare me everytime.

'''MATT:''' It does! It's the harsh— guitar noise.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, I think it's the sound, more than anything else.

'''MATT:''' ''{rushes to say something}'' Wha— Oh— oh, oh, uh—

=== Fun Facts ===
*The song about piña coladas is "Escape" by Rupert Holmes, which was a number one Billboard Hit in 1979. Its refrain begins: "If you like piña coladas / and getting caught in the rain...".
*[http://gizmodo.com Gizmodo] is a website devoted to gadgets, which frequently features case mods, and case modding competitions.
*"Jengaship" was first referenced in [[Where's The Cheat?]], which was the game that Homsar thought he and Strong Sad were playing. They actually were playing [[Wikipedia:Connect Four|Connect Four]].

== Shooting a performer, rescuing a clown? ==

When I shoot performers and rescue clowns, ''nothing happens''. Nothing whatsoever. Though the laser's animation appears, the game acts as though I didn't do anything at all — indeed, it gives me the opportunity to switch to the other laser. I definitely don't see any score reduction or increased "to save" count. Does the PC version act differently? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:43, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Since the title spelling is based on the IGN article, it's not clear if it should be ''Strongbadia the Free'' or ''Strong Badia the Free''.

:I would like to move the article now. After IGN.com errored in at least 2 DVD reviews and despicably boasted about SBCG4AP coming July 21, I can't trust the name they gave this game {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 19:12, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
::I would suggest waiting it out until we have a clearer picture of this. Our only source uses this spelling, so we ought to keep it until something clearer shows up (such as releases from Telltale or TBC). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 21:23, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
:It's "Strong Badia the Free," unless we are feeling really desperate and non-canon and remove the space for character-length reasons or something horrible. The in-game logo for the episode, much like the stop sign from which it came, reads "Strong Badia," though. [[User:TTGJake|TTGJake]] 06:05, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
::Thanks for the info, Jake. I've fixed accordingly. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:54, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

== KOT?? ==

I noticed that there are few moments on the website where the KOT actually acts like a king. This is one of those few... Anyone else noticed that? {{User:Parrothead1/sig}} 17:53, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
:Not really, seeing as this isn't actually on the website. [[User:Joanassie|Joanassie]] 03:41, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

== Homsar? ==

He isn't in the preview, what's the source that he's definitely in the game? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 17:16, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

:IGN's sneak peak lists him being in it. - [[User:OkayGraphics|OkayGraphics]] 17:17, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

== Possible costume pieces? ==

I'm thinkin' the Dangeresque glasses will be available.
Other items might include:
Lotionman,
The hor-ned helmet,
Ab-abber markings,
Freshley's shoeboxes,
and Strongbad's snowflake shirt from happy dethemberween.
amirite?
:This is all speculation. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 22:03, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

== IGN's pictures ==

[http://media.wii.ign.com/media/142/14246169/imgs_1.html Here]. Most notably, [[Homsar]] is in one of 'em. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 22:42, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

== Spoiler warning? ==

Over on the Telltale forum, Strong Badia the Free's lead designer, Chuck Jordan, cautioned against reading IGN's hands-on article, due to it giving away more than it should have. Do you guys ever tag previews of unreleased material with spoiler warnings or anything like that? [[User:TTGJake|TTGJake]] 16:34, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
:I just put up some type of spoiler warning near the link. There's probably a better way to word it, though. {{User:DevonM/sig}} 16:51, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

== Date ==

I heard its coming 9/15
:Meaningless unless you have a source to cite. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 22:33, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

ign IS MY SOUCRE in the hands on and on the game page at it too.
: Ah, but what's IGN's source? It's possible that they're just estimating (September 15 roughly one month after Homestar Ruiner's release.) Homestar Ruiner came much later than expected, remember. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 22:01, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

I SAID IN THE HANDS ON PREVIEW AT PAX 08
: I was at PAX '08 too, but I don't remember seeing anything about the 15th. Do you have any evidence? We're not saying you're wrong, just that we need some kind of verifiability. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:56, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

If anyone told someone a date at PAX, it probably wasn't a Telltale employee. We haven't announced the date because we don't know the exact date. The moment we have a confirmed launch date agreed upon by everybody, we post it to the Telltale blog and forum -- and Telltale or Nintendo of America will always be the first people to post an accurate release date for an SBCG4AP episode. IGN, for instance, often lists a random date just to fill their database, but that information is usually just made up by someone taking a guess when updating their game database, and isn't based on reality. [[User:TTGJake|TTGJake]] 04:18, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
: FYI, IGN sid it is the 14th, not 15th. {{User:DrPepper42/sig}} 13:35, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

:We really don't need you to shout at the other users. And yes, it's confirmed. [http://www.telltalegames.com/community/blogs/id-373] --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 22:08, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
::There's nothing "in our faces". We never said it ''wasn't'' the fifteenth. We were asking for evidence, which didn't show up until yesterday or so. And gloating is a poor way of staying on others' good sides. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 23:49, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Sorry!

== Played around with it a little, and... ==

I'm at work now so I didn't get far, but I still have the following queries and requests:

# Will we list the reponses pages by the normal names of the locations (such as [[Strong Badia the Free Responses (House of Strong)]]) or by their SBtF names (in this case, [[Strong Badia the Free Responses (Bleak House)]])?
# I propose a page on the [[Homsar Reservation]].
# Will it be [[Strong Badia the Free Teen Girl Squad]], [[Strong Badia the Free Cave Girl Squad]], or just [[Cave Girl Squad]]? Whatever the case, the other two should be redirects.

-- {{User:Jay/sig}} 18:18, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

:I think we should use the place names as they appear on the map in each particular game, and maybe create redirects for consistency if it's different. I'm not sure if we really need redirects even. I also think I'll stop reading the wiki now until I've played the game. {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 18:54, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

:::I think the TGS page should just be titled Cave Girl Squad. The one in Homestar Ruiner was only titled as it is, because it had no specific name. For the responses, there should be ones for Strong Badia (including all The Field areas), Bleak House, Homsar Reservation, Pompomerania, Country, Marzistar, and whatever the castle is called.

:::Also, should the tutorial be moved to its own page instead of leaving it on the Homestar Ruiner responses? As far as I'm aware, it's the same in both games... [[User:CloneWarrior|CloneWarrior]] 04:07, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

::::Yes the tutorial is exactly the same in this game as it was in the first. So, it should probably be pulled out of Homestar Ruiner and put someplace common between the games, or on it's own page. {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 04:13, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Should Strong Badia/The Cheat and Tireia and Concessionstantinople have separate responses pages, or be put together? The only reason I ask at all is because Strong Badia was fairly important to the plot, and had at least one cutscene, It might be ''too'' crowded to Field them all together. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 07:06, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
: The Cheat and Tirerea? No. Concessionstan(tinople; it's called both)? Maybe, but realize that there's an entire rest of The Field there too. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:09, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
::Yeah, hence the slash. Whichever the Field and Concessionstantinople become, separate or together, Strong Badia and The Cheat and Tireia should be together. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 07:19, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
:::Though when I think about it, what DOES happen in Strong Badia besides a short portion of the intro and the scene with The Cheat and Tireia? Frankly, that's probably less than takes place in Marzistar or Bleak House. Though while we're on the subject, another thing occurred to me (that would not have occurred to me when I made this topic as I hadn't managed to get that far yet ;): the strategy segment at the end. Lump it with The Castle or make it separate? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:25, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
::::Oh, yeah, totally. The board game, I think, should definitely be a separate page. It's a full interactive game in itself, rather different than the last minigame (the Race to the End of the Race), where the only obstacles to victory (after extensive cheating) was timing. This one, though, is a whole, separate game that requires its own strategies and can really depend on the player's own skill and tactics. It also has its own responses and dialogue within the game, and doesn't last 22 seconds or less like the Race does. In fact, I actually have a board game just like it in real life. It definitely deserves its own page, I say. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 07:35, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Re: Splitting [[Strong Badia the Free Responses (The Field)|The Field]] into different parts: The cut-scene that occurs in Strong Badia actually gets transcribed on the [[Strong Badia the Free Responses (Bleak House)|Bleak House]] response page, because that is where it begins. It makes sense to leave the transcript whole on the page where the scene starts, rather than split it mid-cut-scene. So there's even less that's in Strong Badia's section. I think that the main and secondary sections in the TOC of [[Strong Badia the Free Responses (The Field)|The Field]] is complete now, and it doesn't seem like it's going to be overly long. {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 06:11, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

== How long to wait? ==
I've noticed a ton of Inside References and Real-World References in playing through the game, but most of them would be spoilers. How long should we wait before compiling a list? [[User:TJDevil02|TJDevil02]]
:Go for it. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 22:50, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

== Battle Royale, really? ==

I think the exploding-collar-on-a-prisoner reference might be more likely from Wedlock, a horrible movie with Rutger Hauer (IMDB link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103239/) Of course, it depends on what the collar looks like, I'd imagine.

== So what's the story? ==

For anyone that has downloaded it already, will it replace the current Homestar Ruiner channel? Will all the episodes be condensed into one channel or will they each have their separate channel? Can anyone clear this up for me? [[User:Thrashmeister|Thrashmeister]] 00:19, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
: Separate channels. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:22, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
: Also, the clothes you've collected in Homestar Ruiner will be transferred to Strong Badia the Free. Just check the photo booth. --[[User:FlapperPrower|FlapperPrower]] 19:14, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
::Apparently even if you didn't play Homestar Ruiner you have all of that episode's costume items. [[User:Joanassie|Joanassie]]

== Cave girl Squad ==

Can someone post the solution? -Philip8o
: Still trying to sort it out. I know you get laughs, rather than chuckles, when you:
# Give a girl a dinosaur egg in the first phase and let her live through the end of the third phase.
# Give a girl the tablet and chisel, in that order. Might need to be done after the first phase.
# Give the dog during the third phase.
# Give any girl Charles Darwin in the final stage (I'm pretty sure the final stage only happens if all the girls are dead before then.)
Oddly, with four laughs and one chuckle, I still got "perfection". The chuckle-death I got on "perfection" involved giving the ribbon during the third phase. Most of the responses are not girl-specific as far as I can tell. So and So reacts differently to the wheel than the others, but I haven't achieved a death out of it. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 06:32, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I give up. Where's an Egg? [[User:TJDevil02|TJDevil02]]
: виновник. Okay, seriously, try using your lighter on the barred window in the Bleak House. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:21, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
: Oh, and I've since learned that you have to use the wheel on So and So during the third phase to get a laughing death. However, this did not increase my score even when I got all five laughs; four laughs and a chuckle was apparently enough for a perfect score. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:24, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

giving so-and-so the wheel during the third scene gets a full laugh. but you can get max points without doing that.[[Special:Contributions/65.101.85.104|65.101.85.104]] 01:25, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
::'''(Here's a quick way to get a max score.)''' Even with the hints above I had to waste a couple objects and didn't know how to use certain things without a Teen Girl dying.. so.. First scene: Egg to Chearleader, Machine Gun to anyone.. Second scene: Tablet to What's Her Face, Chisel to What's Her Face.. Third scene: Dog to The Ugly One, Alien to anyone, Wheel to So and So.. Fourth scene: Darwin to anyone.. It's over! {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 08:12, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

== Do I Smell A Zelda Reference? ==

Could Homsar talking about the three tasks and disappointing end cutscene and a "boy of legend" be a Legend of Zelda ref? {{User:Superfield Credit Union/sig}}

== Je ne pense pas ==

*"Roi" is [[French]] for "King", thus explaining the pseudonym "Roy T."

I think the french is dubious. ''Roi'' is pronounced something like '''rwah''', so any connection is only visual -- and it just seems like a stretch to me. For what it's worth, I thought ''Roy T'' was a sound-alike play on ''Royalty''. {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 04:14, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
:I dunno, the visual connection seems reasonable to me. Sure, "oi" sounds different in French than English, but the written similarity between them, plus the fact that T is the first letter in "Town", it the one explanation I can think of for why "Roy T." = "King of Town". {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:00, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

== Reference to Native Americans? ==

Did anyone else see the Homsar Reservation and Homsar's "normal" voice as a stereotypical reference to Native Americans? Would it be worth mentioning in the article? [[User:Thrashmeister|Thrashmeister]] 03:12, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm playing the PC version, and I couldn't reproduce the strange-Strong-Bad-costume glitch. Has anyone else encountered this one? --[[User:Lukeonia1|Lukeonia1]] 10:03, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
:Actually, I have the Wii version, and that buzzing thing while trying to save happened to me. Except I was in the King of Town's castle with no costume items on in Extended Play. I think I just got Extended Play and was trying to save it to my file I'd been playing on, and when it opened in the KoT castle, I tried to save and it buzzed. I repeated it two or three times and it still did that. I think I went to Bleak House and saved, and it worked. {{User:Superfield Credit Union/sig}}

== strong badia shirt glitch? ==

"Digging up the Strong Badia shirt will cause another hole to appear in Strong Badia, in front of the flagpole, near the cinder block." I'm not entirely sure of this.

''{Cut to Strong Sad's room. Strong Sad is sitting at his table eating a small pie. Strong Bad leans in through the doorway.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dramatically}'' Meet Strong Sad.

'''STRONG SAD:''' What? Who are you talking to?

'''STRONG BAD:''' All he ever wanted was to eat his grody ethnic food in peace.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Hey man, this is a rogan josh pot pie!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Until one day, fate threw him a curveball.

''{A small blue octopus flies across the screen, hits Strong Sad in the face with a slap and sticks to him.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' OW!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Lump of Dump Pictures proudly presents:

''{Cut to logo splash. Words appear as Strong Bad says them.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' "Whined & Dined". In the game of life, may the best man ''{slight pause}'' whine. ''{grumbles}''

''{Cut to Bubs' Concession Stand. Coach Z is talking to Bubs. Strong Bad quickly peers out around the corner of the stand. All the while, dramatic music with drums is heard.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' In a post-apocalyptic world where ''{cut to a closeup of Strong Bad}'' weird old men survive on boring conversations...

''{Cut to wide shot outside the stand.}''

'''BUBS:''' I suppose we could talk about my napkin friend for another couple hours. ''{holds up a napkin}''

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...a line will be drawn.

''{Cut to the inside of the stand.}''

'''COACH Z:''' YOUR napkin?! Well, it's got my snot balls on it!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' A hero will rise.

''{Cut back to outside the stand.}''

'''BUBS:''' Man, you don't even have a nose!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And an empire will fall.

''{Cut back to outside the stand. Bubs slams the metal gate to his concession stand shut, revealing "4actor Z" graffiti}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Factor Z!

''{Cut to Marzipan's House. Marzipan and Homestar are inside; Homestar is wearing an apron and a strange chef's hat. Strong Bad peeks in from the left.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' They were a couple in love.

'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar, you look like a dork with that on.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Until a dorky chef's hat threatened to tear them apart.

''{Close-up of Homestar's head. Homestar shakes his head, making the hat's 'googly eyes' jiggle.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, yeah? Well maybe you look like some type of enormous... alien... cow!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{sharp offended gasp}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as music begins to play}'' This summer,—

''{Cut to the field, where Homsar is levitating on his stomach while his hat rises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —this holiday season,—

''{Cut to the side of The King of Town's castle. The Poopsmith is shoveling whatsit in the background. Slow zoom in on him}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —this Arbor Day, some smelly French studio invites YOU ''{points at camera}'' to sit through a four hour film with no dialogue and no plot. "Whatsit ''{slight pause}'' All About"

''{Title appears on the screen with the subtitle "Whatzeet All Aboot?" Cut to Strong Mad's room. Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing Battleship. Piano music begins as Strong Bad appears in the center}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Two unlikely partners...

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...one brain between them.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{shrugs and sighs}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{makes a The Cheat noise}''

''{Cut to bathroom. We are just behind Strong Sad as he brushes his teeth. We can see his reflection in the mirror. Strong Bad pops up just over his shoulder.}

'''STRONG BAD:''' For hundreds of years it has ''{flickers lights on and off}'' haunted mankind.

''{Cut to The Basement. Strong Sad is watching TV. Strong Bad is standing off to the side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' From the master of teenagers-on-a-camping-trip-esque horror. ''{flickers lights again and leaves them off}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Are you gonna throw a dead goose at me or something?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Comes the remake no one has been waiting for: ''{another title splash}'' "Things That Go Dump in The Night".

''{Cut to the laundry room. Strong Sad opens the dryer. Cut to a view of Strong Sad from inside it. A dead Canada goose flies out and Strong Sad screams as it knocks him over. The screen immediately goes black except for the words "Your goose is cooked."}''

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' The critics agree! "A triumph!" "A cinematic breakfast snack of some kind!" "It ''{very slight pause}'' sure was a movie!" ''{quickly}'' Now playing in select cities. ''{rapidly, in the manner of a disclaimer}'' This Strong Bad Email has been rated P for The Poopsmith and a graphic scene of The Paper.

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*[[Wikipedia:Rogan josh|Rogan josh]] is a tomato/red pepper based lamb curry dish, created in Northern India. It is normally served over rice, not in a pot pie.
*The "change-up" and "curveball" Strong Sad mentions in the Easter egg are both [[Wikipedia:Pitch (baseball)|pitches]] in baseball. There is a [[Wikipedia:Double-entendre|double entendre]], however. While he was probably speaking literally of the octopus being thrown at him, both phrases can also be used of unexpected twists of fate, as in Strong Bad's narration.
* The title "Things That Go [[Dump]] in the Night" is a reference to the better known phrase "Things that go '''Bump''' in the Night".

===Trivia===
*The Strong Badman Easter egg was not in the email at first, but was added later on in the day.
*This email contains an instance of [[Strong Bad Smiling]].

===Remarks===
* Strong Bad emphasizes the word "gross" when he says the name "Gossman" as "Grossman". A "gross" is a term for 144 of anything, and this is the 144th email.
* Strong Bad refers to Bubs and Coach Z as "old men" in this toon. Their ages relative to the other characters are rarely mentioned, although Coach Z called himself an "old man" in [[caffeine]].
** Interestingly, although Strong Bad refers to Bubs as an old man in this e-mail and in [[isp]], he also called him "kid" in [[cheatday]].
**When Bubs is [[the Thnikkaman]], he refers to everyone except [[Coach Z]] as "kid."
*Coach Z tells Bubs that the napkin has his snotballs on it, which is odd since Coach Z appears to [[Lack of Visible Body Parts#Coach Z's Face|lack a nose]].
* When Strong Bad is narrating for "THiNGS THAT GO DUMP iN THE NiGHT", he flips the lights on and off in the basement, making us think that there is a light switch just "behind the black" on the left. However, in [[Homestar Presents: Presents]], no light switch was seen.
*Strong Bad separating Minnesota from the rest of the email in the way he did, is probably a reference to how Minnesotans pronounce the long O sound.
*Bubs tells Coach Z that he doesn't have a nose, which is ironic since they both do not have a visible nose.

===Goofs===
*During the ''Lugnut and Squeak'' scene, the Battleship images on the playing boards are slightly disproportionate when the camera zooms in on Strong Bad.
*When The Poopsmith is shoveling his pile of [[whatsit]], the whatsit on his shovel disappears before dropping to the ground.

===Glitches===
*When Marzipan's angry expression is used, blinking causes her outline to be intruded.

===Inside References===
*Strong Mad's role as Lugnut is likely a reference to his [[Yearbook Character Page#Strong Mad|Yearbook Character Page]], which described him as a "big lug".
*Strong Bad's line about boring conversations between Bubs and Coach Z is another Yearbook Character Page reference, while their argument over who owns the [[Bubs' Napkins|napkin]] is a reference to the Easter egg rap from [[cheatday]], specifically Bubs's line (to Coach Z) "But don't you steal my napkins."
*When Strong Bad says "three weeks in a row", he is referring to the previous 2 emails: [[technology]], in which Strong Sad corrected Strong Bad for calling a floppy disk a "hard disk", and [[secret identity]], when [[Hyperactive Strong Sad]] corrected Homestar's mispronunciation of "pseudonym". All three of these corrections occurred during [[Easter egg]]s.
*Even though Marzipan Alien Cow says she likes his [[style]] (unlike Strong Bad and [[1-Up]]), Nebulon mopes away just as he did in [[New Boots]].
**Matt Chapman remarked in the [[Inkhole Interview]] and [[New Boots#Commentary Transcript|New Boots DVD Commentary]] that this move is his favorite part of any toon.
*The movie title "THiNGS THAT GO DUMP iN THE NiGHT" is another appearance of [[Lowercase i's|lowercase ''i'''s]].
*There is another reference to [[pie]].
*Homestar's dorky chef's hat is another instance of a [[googly-eyed object]].
* "4actor Z" is another example of [[Internet Slang|Leetspeak]].

===Real-World References===
* The game Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing is [[Wikipedia:Battleship (game)|Battleship]]. Strong Mad's line "I ate my battleship!" is a take off from the old Battleship commercials, where one player would cry at the end "You sank my battleship!"
** The "battleship" icon depicted on the game is a silhouette of the Civil War-era Confederate [[Wikipedia:Ironclad warship|ironclad]] ''[[Wikipedia:CSS Virginia|CSS Virginia]]''.
* "Teenagers on a camping trip" likely refers to horror movies such as [[Wikipedia:Friday the 13th (film series)|Friday the 13th]] and its sequels, which primarily featured such characters.

* Strong Bad's trailer for "Factor Z" is in the style of prolific voiceover man [[Wikipedia:Don LaFontaine|Don LaFontaine]], who was responsible for almost 5,000 U.S. movie trailers, and for popularizing the phrases "in a world" and "a hero will rise."

=== DVD Commentary ===
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' I don't remember that one at all, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' I don't either, Matt.

'''MATT:''' It sounds like the ''If You Like Piña Coladas'' song.

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

'''MATT:''' It reminds me of that.

'''MIKE:''' So, I think this email, I had to check on— narrator sometimes confuses me, as to whether or not it's "narrator" or "narrarator".

'''MATT:''' No, it's nar''ra''tor.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' I always think of— uh, in ''A Clockwork Orange'' he refers to himself as his— as "your humble nar''ra''tor", so—

'''MIKE:''' Ahh—

'''MATT:''' — and I always feel like, okay, narrator. Cause clearly—

'''MIKE:''' Uh..

''{long pause}''

'''MATT:''' I think that would be really good. A Rogan Josh pot pie.

'''MIKE:''' You should make one.

''{long pause}''

'''MATT:''' Where do you think Strong Bad got that squid, Mike?

'''MIKE:''' ''{sounding bored}'' I don't know... the farmer's market maybe? ''{Matt laughs}'' You can get some gross stuff at the farmer's market.

'''MATT:''' ''{resigned}'' Probably...

''{long pause}''

'''MATT:''' Do you ever do this, Mike? Narrate real life— like it's a movie trailer?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. ''{narration voice}'' In a— email commentary that was ''pretty boring'' ...''{Matt laughs}'' Two brothers talk about ''dumb'' stuff.

'''MATT:''' Okay—

'''MIKE:''' Yeah—

'''MATT:''' —that's pretty good—

'''MIKE:''' You try.

'''MATT:''' —What's that called though?

'''MIKE:''' Oh—

'''MATT:''' What do you call—

'''MIKE:''' —the movie?

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' ''Slow''...

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' ...''Guys''

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs harder}''

'''MIKE:''' But "guys" is G-U-I-S-E.

'''MATT:''' Okay. I like that.

'''MIKE:''' It's a play on— ''{overlapping}'' It's a play on words.

'''MATT:''' Like we're wearing disguises?

'''MIKE:''' Maybe.

''{pause}''

'''MATT:''' Umm.. That's a great hat. I wish I could have that hat.

'''MIKE:''' Uh, I can make that for you for Christmas next year.

'''MATT:''' Yeah? What about the cow— I want the cow lamp and I want the— ''{sees Homsar floating}'' What?''{both laugh}'' Homsar's defying gravaties.

''{long pause}''

'''MATT:''' Say some things— was that the Canadian, uh, subtitles there?

'''MIKE:''' "Whatzeet?"

'''MATT:''' "Whatzeet all aboot"

''{pause}''

'''MIKE:''' Look, they're really playing battleship. Not Jengaship.

'''MATT:''' Mike and I work, and we play battleship all the time, because we sit, eh, facing each other, with our laptops open.

'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' —with our laptops, that's true.

'''MATT:''' So it looks like—

'''MIKE:''' We should— we should get our laptops, uh, custom— what do you call those?

'''MATT:''' a mod?

'''MIKE:''' —Case mods.

'''MATT:''' A case mod.

'''MIKE:''' We should get case mods for our laptops to look like Battleship.

'''MATT:''' Red and blue Battleships, that's a great idea!

'''MIKE:''' A little sticker paper, maybe.

'''MATT:''' We could totally get on Gizmodo — with that— with that mess. ''{pause}'' Ooo, look at that effect, I like that flickering— nighttime lights.

''{pause}''

'''MATT:''' Scary music. ''{fake screams}''

'''MIKE:''' That part does scare me everytime.

'''MATT:''' It does! It's the harsh— guitar noise.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, I think it's the sound, more than anything else.

'''MATT:''' ''{rushes to say something}'' Wha— Oh— oh, oh, uh—

==Transcript==
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' I met this email on a north-bound train. We had some dinner, then we danced in the rain. ''{Presses enter.}''

<blockquote class="lappy email">
<div>subject: narration</div>
Have you ever been the narrator for a movie? 
 
Grant Gossman from Minnesota. 
</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad says "Minnesota" slightly slower than the rest.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' No Grossman, I have not. But you know what's way better than narrating movies? Narrating peoples' pathetic everyday lives like they're movie trailers. Ready? Let's try it!

''{Cut to Strong Sad's room. Strong Sad is sitting at his table eating a small pie. Strong Bad leans in through the doorway.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dramatically}'' Meet Strong Sad.

'''STRONG SAD:''' What? Who are you talking to?

'''STRONG BAD:''' All he ever wanted was to eat his grody ethnic food in peace.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Hey man, this is a rogan josh pot pie!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Until one day, fate threw him a curveball.

''{A small blue octopus flies across the screen, hits Strong Sad in the face with a slap and sticks to him.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' OW!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Lump of Dump Pictures proudly presents:

''{Cut to logo splash. Words appear as Strong Bad says them.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' "Whined & Dined". In the game of life, may the best man ''{slight pause}'' whine. ''{grumbles}''

''{Cut to Bubs' Concession Stand. Coach Z is talking to Bubs. Strong Bad quickly peers out around the corner of the stand. All the while, dramatic music with drums is heard.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' In a post-apocalyptic world where ''{cut to a closeup of Strong Bad}'' weird old men survive on boring conversations...

''{Cut to wide shot outside the stand.}''

'''BUBS:''' I suppose we could talk about my napkin friend for another couple hours. ''{holds up a napkin}''

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...a line will be drawn.

''{Cut to the inside of the stand.}''

'''COACH Z:''' YOUR napkin?! Well, it's got my snot balls on it!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' A hero will rise.

''{Cut back to outside the stand.}''

'''BUBS:''' Man, you don't even have a nose!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And an empire will fall.

''{Cut back to outside the stand. Bubs slams the metal gate to his concession stand shut, revealing "4actor Z" graffiti}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Factor Z!

''{Cut to Marzipan's House. Marzipan and Homestar are inside; Homestar is wearing an apron and a strange chef's hat. Strong Bad peeks in from the left.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' They were a couple in love.

'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar, you look like a dork with that on.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Until a dorky chef's hat threatened to tear them apart.

''{Close-up of Homestar's head. Homestar shakes his head, making the hat's 'googly eyes' jiggle.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, yeah? Well maybe you look like some type of enormous... alien... cow!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{sharp offended gasp}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as music begins to play}'' This summer,—

''{Cut to the field, where Homsar is levitating on his stomach while his hat rises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —this holiday season,—

''{Cut to the side of The King of Town's castle. The Poopsmith is shoveling whatsit in the background. Slow zoom in on him}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —this Arbor Day, some smelly French studio invites YOU ''{points at camera}'' to sit through a four hour film with no dialogue and no plot. "Whatsit ''{slight pause}'' All About"

''{Title appears on the screen with the subtitle "Whatzeet All Aboot?" Cut to Strong Mad's room. Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing Battleship. Piano music begins as Strong Bad appears in the center}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Two unlikely partners...

'''STRONG MAD:''' I ATE MY BATTLESHIP!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...one brain between them.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{shrugs and sighs}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' From the creators of "I'm Surprised Strong Mad Hasn't Eaten The Cheat by Now"

'''STRONG MAD:''' ''{upset}'' Awww!

'''STRONG BAD:''' get ready to—

''{The words fly on screen as he says them.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —LUG... IT... AROUND.

''{Title appears at top of screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' "Lugnut ''{gestures toward Strong Mad, who grins}'' & Squeak" ''{pats The Cheat on the head}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{makes a The Cheat noise}''

''{Cut to bathroom. We are just behind Strong Sad as he brushes his teeth. We can see his reflection in the mirror. Strong Bad pops up just over his shoulder.}

'''STRONG BAD:''' For hundreds of years it has ''{flickers lights on and off}'' haunted mankind.

''{Cut to The Basement. Strong Sad is watching TV. Strong Bad is standing off to the side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' From the master of teenagers-on-a-camping-trip-esque horror. ''{flickers lights again and leaves them off}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Are you gonna throw a dead goose at me or something?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Comes the remake no one has been waiting for: ''{another title splash}'' "Things That Go Dump in The Night".

''{Cut to the laundry room. Strong Sad opens the dryer. Cut to a view of Strong Sad from inside it. A dead Canada goose flies out and Strong Sad screams as it knocks him over. The screen immediately goes black except for the words "Your goose is cooked."}''

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' The critics agree! "A triumph!" "A cinematic breakfast snack of some kind!" "It ''{very slight pause}'' sure was a movie!" ''{quickly}'' Now playing in select cities. ''{rapidly, in the manner of a disclaimer}'' This Strong Bad Email has been rated P for The Poopsmith and a graphic scene of The Paper.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

==Easter Eggs==
*Click on "Grossman" after Strong Bad types it to see a Strong Badman comic book cover illustrating him.
*Click on "critics" at the end of the email to see a scene with Strong Bad and Strong Sad.
:'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{still with the blue octopus on his face}'' Look, all I'm saying is it felt more like a change-up than a curveball.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' What are you, the SBEmail police now? This is like three weeks in a row!
*Click on "rated P" at the end to see a [[Powered by The Cheat]] scene featuring Marzipan as an "enormous alien cow" with Nebulon on [[The Moon]].
:'''MARZIPAN ALIEN:''' ''{in a Powered by the Cheat-style voice}'' You know, Nebulon, I've always admired your styles.
:''{Nebulon makes a sad face and slides away.}''

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*[[Wikipedia:Rogan josh|Rogan josh]] is a tomato/red pepper based lamb curry dish, created in Northern India. It is normally served over rice, not in a pot pie.
*The "change-up" and "curveball" Strong Sad mentions in the Easter egg are both [[Wikipedia:Pitch (baseball)|pitches]] in baseball. There is a [[Wikipedia:Double-entendre|double entendre]], however. While he was probably speaking literally of the octopus being thrown at him, both phrases can also be used of unexpected twists of fate, as in Strong Bad's narration.
* The title "Things That Go [[Dump]] in the Night" is a reference to the better known phrase "Things that go '''Bump''' in the Night".

===Trivia===
*The Strong Badman Easter egg was not in the email at first, but was added later on in the day.
*This email contains an instance of [[Strong Bad Smiling]].

===Remarks===
* Strong Bad emphasizes the word "gross" when he says the name "Gossman" as "Grossman". A "gross" is a term for 144 of anything, and this is the 144th email.
* Strong Bad refers to Bubs and Coach Z as "old men" in this toon. Their ages relative to the other characters are rarely mentioned, although Coach Z called himself an "old man" in [[caffeine]].
** Interestingly, although Strong Bad refers to Bubs as an old man in this e-mail and in [[isp]], he also called him "kid" in [[cheatday]].
**When Bubs is [[the Thnikkaman]], he refers to everyone except [[Coach Z]] as "kid."
*Coach Z tells Bubs that the napkin has his snotballs on it, which is odd since Coach Z appears to [[Lack of Visible Body Parts#Coach Z's Face|lack a nose]].
* When Strong Bad is narrating for "THiNGS THAT GO DUMP iN THE NiGHT", he flips the lights on and off in the basement, making us think that there is a light switch just "behind the black" on the left. However, in [[Homestar Presents: Presents]], no light switch was seen.
*Strong Bad separating Minnesota from the rest of the email in the way he did, is probably a reference to how Minnesotans pronounce the long O sound.
*Bubs tells Coach Z that he doesn't have a nose, which is ironic since they both do not have a visible nose.

===Goofs===
*During the ''Lugnut and Squeak'' scene, the Battleship images on the playing boards are slightly disproportionate when the camera zooms in on Strong Bad.
*When The Poopsmith is shoveling his pile of [[whatsit]], the whatsit on his shovel disappears before dropping to the ground.

===Glitches===
*When Marzipan's angry expression is used, blinking causes her outline to be intruded.

===Inside References===
*Strong Mad's role as Lugnut is likely a reference to his [[Yearbook Character Page#Strong Mad|Yearbook Character Page]], which described him as a "big lug".
*Strong Bad's line about boring conversations between Bubs and Coach Z is another Yearbook Character Page reference, while their argument over who owns the [[Bubs' Napkins|napkin]] is a reference to the Easter egg rap from [[cheatday]], specifically Bubs's line (to Coach Z) "But don't you steal my napkins."
*When Strong Bad says "three weeks in a row", he is referring to the previous 2 emails: [[technology]], in which Strong Sad corrected Strong Bad for calling a floppy disk a "hard disk", and [[secret identity]], when [[Hyperactive Strong Sad]] corrected Homestar's mispronunciation of "pseudonym". All three of these corrections occurred during [[Easter egg]]s.
*Even though Marzipan Alien Cow says she likes his [[style]] (unlike Strong Bad and [[1-Up]]), Nebulon mopes away just as he did in [[New Boots]].
**Matt Chapman remarked in the [[Inkhole Interview]] and [[New Boots#Commentary Transcript|New Boots DVD Commentary]] that this move is his favorite part of any toon.
*The movie title "THiNGS THAT GO DUMP iN THE NiGHT" is another appearance of [[Lowercase i's|lowercase ''i'''s]].
*There is another reference to [[pie]].
*Homestar's dorky chef's hat is another instance of a [[googly-eyed object]].
* "4actor Z" is another example of [[Internet Slang|Leetspeak]].

===Real-World References===
* The game Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing is [[Wikipedia:Battleship (game)|Battleship]]. Strong Mad's line "I ate my battleship!" is a take off from the old Battleship commercials, where one player would cry at the end "You sank my battleship!"
** The "battleship" icon depicted on the game is a silhouette of the Civil War-era Confederate [[Wikipedia:Ironclad warship|ironclad]] ''[[Wikipedia:CSS Virginia|CSS Virginia]]''.
* "Teenagers on a camping trip" likely refers to horror movies such as [[Wikipedia:Friday the 13th (film series)|Friday the 13th]] and its sequels, which primarily featured such characters.

* Strong Bad's trailer for "Factor Z" is in the style of prolific voiceover man [[Wikipedia:Don LaFontaine|Don LaFontaine]], who was responsible for almost 5,000 U.S. movie trailers, and for popularizing the phrases "in a world" and "a hero will rise."

== Fun Facts ==
[[Image:Strong Bad Sings missing title.png|thumb|right|220px|Hidden title]]
===Trivia===
*The photos used for the background of the CD/Cassette/8-track cover have "[[Wikipedia:Corbis|corbis.com]]" in the bottom left corner of them. (It's most noticeable on the 8-Tracks: just zoom in.)
*In older versions of the Flash, the phone number at the end was 1-800-BAD-SONG. That was changed because it turned out that was a real number for a Limousine service in the New York area.
*There is another title in the song list that was never shown in the toon. It's called "Keep On Keepin' It On (I Am So Awesome)".
*[[Mike Chapman]] is the voice of Announcer 2.
*At the end, the commentator says to call 1-800-428-64 tooty-two. This phone number actually belongs to Tank Technologies and Supply in Rogers, MN, assuming tooty-two is 22.
*Three records (LPs) would equal 135 minutes of music (2 hours, 15 minutes).
*Seven CDs worth of songs would equal, at most, 560 minutes of music (9 hours, 20 minutes).
*Twelve cassette tapes would equal 1080 minutes of music (18 hours).
*Thirty 8-track tapes would equal up to 1200 minutes of music (20 hours).
*This is the first mention of [[Free Country, USA]].

===Remarks===
*Strong Mad's eyebrows are gray for this cartoon.
*The phone number at the end is 13 digits long. Standard phone numbers in the United States include only 10 digits, however, additional letters are often added in commercials for the value of having the phone number spell a word.

===Inside References===
*The song "Who is the Guy That Wins All the Contests?" is a reference to the song Strong Bad sings to himself in [[A Jumping Jack Contest]].
*This is the first appearance of [[Tooty-two]].

===Fast Forward===
*Many of these songs are remade and featured on the CD [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]].

== DVD Version ==
*The song The Cheat plays to Strong Mad is changed to "Hot Cross Buns".
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

===Commentary Transcript===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])
[[Image:Fat Bluebird.PNG|thumb|Yep, it's on the wiki.]]
'''MATT:''' Oh, that Fat Bluebird.

'''MIKE:''' It's the re— it's one of my favorite characters. ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' I wonder is the Fat Bluebird on the wiki?

'''MIKE:''' I dunno. Look at Strong Bad's mouth and his mask. It's before he had the highlights on his eyes—

'''MATT:''' What about that great background we're using there?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. I think I may have bought that as clip art.

'''MATT:''' Really?

'''MIKE:''' I think so.

'''MATT:''' How legitimate of you, for as early on as this was.

'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' Yeah. It was like five bucks, maybe. Strong Bad's mouth gets a lot, uh, wider no— back then than it does now.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, and taller. It pretty much goes from stem to stern.

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

'''MATT:''' Uh, so a lot of— some of these songs we ended up making on the CD. The Strong Bad Sings CD. Now that back—

'''MIKE:''' ''{cracking up while speaking}'' That background I did not pay for!

'''MATT:''' ''{laughing}'' You didn't pay two cents for that one!

'''MIKE:''' I didn't try very hard, either!

'''MATT:''' I always enjoyed this part, though. I thought you did a good job. I was amazed that we could fit that many symbols on the screen at the s— at one time. I didn't think that was possible.

'''MIKE:''' ''{incomprehensible}''

'''MATT:''' So, here's the old announcer; he's still around. So don't, you guys, don't tell them about it; we had to change this so—

'''MIKE:''' Hot Cross Buns!

'''MATT:''' The Happy— the Happy B-day people—

'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously, sings}'' Hot Cross Buns! ''{alone, speaking}'' Those Nazis! ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' ''{cracking up while speaking}'' —didn't come and make us pay them eight cents!

'''MIKE:''' The Hot Cross Buns people are totally cool. ''{laughs}'' That's my first appearance on the website, vocally.

'''MATT:''' That's true.

'''BOTH:''' It used to be 1-800-BAD-SONG—

'''MIKE:''' —and it was a real number.

'''MATT:''' It was, like, a limo driver in Brooklyn, or something, I think!

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, somebody, and he would send us angry emails about people calling that number.

===Fun Facts===
*"[[Wikipedia:Happy Birthday to You|Happy Birthday to You]]" is in fact a [[Wikipedia:Happy Birthday to You#Copyright issues and public performances|copyrighted]] song, which explains The Brothers Chaps' remark about having to change the song The Cheat plays to "Hot Cross Buns".
*At the time of [[Everything Else, Volume 1]]'s release, the Fat Bluebird was not mentioned specifically on the wiki. On the first day the disc was available, the bluebird was listed in the cast at the top of this page in response to the commentary above, and then not long after that it got its own screenshot and article.

Quality Time with Cardboard Homestar

Blu Aardvark:

{{toonnav|Shorts|qualitytime|Ever and More!|Limozeen vs. Sloshy}}
[[Image:Quality Time.png|thumb|"Seriously, Marzipan, how do you get so smart?"]]

While Homestar is on "vacation", Marzipan spends some quality time with his cardboard double.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' {{film|Marzipan}}, [[Cardboard Homestar]], {{film|Strong Sad}}, {{film|Bubs}}, {{film|Homestar Runner}}, [[Cardboard Marzipan]] (Easter egg)

'''Places:''' [[Marzipan's House]], [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], [[The Field]] (with fence), [[Bubs' Concession Stand]]

'''Date:''' Tuesday, August 7th, 2007

'''Page title:''' Cut her some FLAX!

'''Running time:''' 1:48

== Transcript ==

''{Marzipan is sitting on her sofa holding a book called "Algonquin Stew".}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' You know, Homestar, I disagree with what you said about the underlying theme of Chapter 8 in this book. It's really not about man's struggle with double-sided tape. It's a metaphor for the Mesopotamian social hierarchy during the Bronze Age.

''{Shift view to see a cardboard cutout of Homestar wearing glasses and with a butterfly instead of a propeller on his cap. Marzipan supplies the cutout's voice, imitating Homestar's. When she does, she looks away, gains a heavy brow and an underbite that resembles Homestar's mouth.}''

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' Seriously, Marzipan, how do you get so smart? Don't you see you are a smart?

'''MARZIPAN:''' Well thanks, Homestar. I guess I am kind of smart.

''{Title screen: "Quality Time with Cardboard Homestar"}''

''{Cut to a scene in Marshmallow's Last Stand. Strong Sad is playing violin and has a mustache, and Cardboard Homestar has a green tie wrapped around where his neck is drawn.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh, thank you, Homestar. This is so romantic.

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' You are so smart, Marzy-pan.

''{Scene of Marzipan adding a bottle of "CUT ME SOME FLAX! (seed oil)" to something in a bowl in her kitchen.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' And I always like to add a drop of flaxseed oil. Gotta get those Omega-3s!

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' Marzipan, you're so smart.

''{Scene of Marzipan playing guitar and singing in the Field.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Marshmallows are fluffy; 

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' ''{also singing}'' You are so smart Marzipan.

''{Marzipan is at Bubs' Concession Stand. Bubs puts a carton of [[eggs]] on the counter.}''

'''BUBS:''' There you go, Marzipan! My last batch of organic batteries.

'''MARZIPAN:''' Thanks, Bubs!

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' You shop so smart, Marzipan.

'''BUBS:''' Yeah. When is ol' Homestar gettin' back from vacation?

'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh, um, he, um, decided to stay a couple more days. ''{Smiles nervously}'' Yeah, couple more days, yeah. ''{Smiles nervously again}''

''{Cut to Marzipan's living room.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Marzipan? Marzipan? ''{Her closet door is boarded shut. Homestar's voice comes from within.}'' Can you let me out now? ''{Knocks the door}'' I'm pretty sure there's no cake in here. It's been about three weeks now, and you'd think I would have found it. All I've been able to find in here is some coats, and a broom. Unless it's a broomcake! Is it a broomcake? Ooh, let's try this broomcake. ''{Noises of labored eating. The door thuds.} {Weakly}'' Uh, Marzipan? This is a really bad broomcake. ''{With renewed vigor}'' Ptooey! ''{Continues knocking the door}'' Can you let me out, please? Oh, wait—coatcake?

''{The scene goes black and "end" appears.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sing-song}'' Maybe it's a coatcake!

== Easter Eggs ==
*Click on the "e" in "end" to see a short scene with both cardboard characters.
*:''{Cardboard Homestar and Cardboard Marzipan are sitting on Marzipan's couch. Homestar and Marzipan can be seen barely onscreen, facing away from each other, manipulating each other's characters}''
*:'''CARDBOARD MARZIPAN:''' And then I told him there was cake in the closet. And that's how I got some peace and quiet for three weeks.
*:'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' Marzipan, you're so smart.

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===

*The [[Wikipedia:Algonquin|Algonquins]] are a Native American tribe centered in [[Wikipedia:Quebec|Quebec]]. It may also be a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Algonquin_Round_Table|Algonquin Round Table]] of literary fame.
*[[Wikipedia:Mesopotamia|Mesopotamia]] refers to the region now known as modern Iraq, and some of the surrounding countries. The name comes from the Greek words "between" and "river", referring to the basins of the Euphrates and the Tigris rivers and the area in between.
*The [[Wikipedia:Bronze Age|Bronze Age]] is a period of prehistoric society following the [[Wikipedia:Stone Age|Stone Age]], when working with copper and tin was the most advanced form of metalwork.
*[[Wikipedia:Linseed oil|Flax seed oil]] is vegetable oil made using the seeds of the [[Wikipedia:flax|flax]] plant.
**Flax seed oil is rich in [[Wikipedia:Omega-3 fatty acid|Omega-3 fatty acid]]s, which have certain [[Wikipedia:Omega-3 fatty acid#Health benefits|health benefits]].
*The "organic [[batteries]]" refers to [[Wikipedia: organic food|organic food]], which is supposed to lack toxic [[Wikipedia: pesticide|pesticides]], or any harmful [[Wikipedia:food additive|artificial ingredients]] such as [[Wikipedia: hormones|hormones]]. It also refers to [[Wikipedia:Battery_cage|Battery Cage]] eggs. As these are condemned by animal rights organizations, Organic Batteries would appear to be a contradiction, and evidence of Bubs' ever-shady deals.

===Trivia===
*When the short was first released, there were no nails in the boards. This was fixed later on in the day.

===Remarks===
[[Image:Regulareyes_small.png|thumb|right|100px|Regular Eyed Cardboard Homestar]]
*In the [[TV Time Toons Menu]]'s [[HR:menuswfs/menu_qualitytime.swf|preview]], Cardboard Homestar's eyes are shaped like Homestar's normal eyes and have no glasses, and the fence in the foreground is missing.
**If the preview is viewed on the [[Wikipedia:Wii|Wii]] [[Wikipedia:Internet Channel|Internet Channel]], Cardboard Homestar, the fence, and Marzipan's mouth are missing.
*In the Marshmallow's Last Stand scene, Strong Sad's bow is pointed the wrong way, as the screw is supposed to be closest to the right hand, not the wooden tip.
*In the scene where Cardboard Homestar and Marzipan are sitting on the couch, you can clearly see large folds in Cardboard Homestar's knees and torso, so it will look like he is sitting down. The folds should create creases, which will affect the looks and rigidness of cardboard, but throughout the rest of the short, the knees and torso are uncreased.

===Goofs===
*During the Easter Egg, when Cardboard Marzipan talks (and bends over) you can see the background inside the crinkles on the edge of the cardboard.
*Strong Sad's [[soolnds]] are in front of Marzipan's seat.

===Inside References===
*Marzipan pretending Homestar is on vacation refers to [[Happy Fireworks]], when Marzipan was on vacation and Homestar invented Cardboard Marzipan as a replacement.
*Strong Sad wears a [[mustache]].
*Homestar mentions [[cake]].
*Homestar first uses the phrase "a smart" in the email [[stupid stuff]].

Blu Aardvark: Testing something

Email Processing Room

Blu Aardvark — Mon, 17 Oct 2005 09:11:13 GMT

Blu Aardvark: No, that is indeed anagram

[[Image:email_processing_room.png|thumb|right|220px|Print. Chew. Crumple. Repeat!]]
The '''Email Processing Room''' is the nexus of all [[Strong Bad]]'s e-mail processing. Linked through the animated GIF of a mouse on [[Strong Bad's Website]], it is definitely not a part of the normal [[Homestar Runner (Flash cartoon)|Homestar Runner]] world, but clever and amusing enough to be listed here.

'''Page Title:''' MEN AT WORK

==Processing Details==
[[The Cheat]] types on an old computer (telling by the shape of the computer case and the monitor on top, probably an Apple II) and prints out a potential email candidate. [[Strong Mad]] grabs [[The Paper]], puts on his reading glasses, and reads the email carefully. He then chews up the paper, spits it into a cylinder, and sends it via pneumatic tube to Strong Bad. Strong Mad takes off his glasses. Strong Bad just laughs at the paper and and rips it into tiny pieces. This cycle repeats.

==Noted Inconsistency==
Behind Strong Mad can be seen a poster reading "GET BACK TO WORK!" and three signs that say, "PRIDE," "DETAIL," and "ETHICS." They include a link to the former website of "The Rumor." The site has since expired and been turned into a weight loss advertisement page. This is notable because in an [[EmailFAQ|early FAQ]], requests for links from Homestar Runner were rejected on the grounds that they do not use links to other sites. This has been corrected in the later [[FAQ]].

==The Rumor==
"The Rumor" eventually became [http://dumpyusa.0catch.com/index.htm DumpyUSA], a website run by Brent McNeal and Adam Sterritt, who are friends of [[Matt Chapman]] and [[Craig Zobel]] and brother to [[Ryan Sterritt]], who are all Homestar Runner creators and contributors. The "Pride," "Detail," and "Ethics" signs in the cartoon refer to corresponding signs posted in Rumor South headquarters, i.e. Adam's bedroom.

The new site includes a [http://dumpyusa.0catch.com/matt.htm photo page of Matt] and [http://www.adamscorner.blogspot.com/ Adam's blog] with [http://www.adamscorner.blogspot.com/adamscorner_archive.html archives].

==Fun Facts==
*Back in the [[Tandy 400|Tandy]] era, sending Strong Bad an email would get an [[Strong_Bad_Email#Trivia|automated response]] that linked here.
**In that email, he explains the order of events in an anagram. The email gets "R.E.D. The Cheat Reads it, Strong Mad Eats it, and I Deletes it."
*Strong Mad's right arm is messed up (he appears to "grow" another arm out of it).
*The printer shown here may be the printer Strong Bad uses at the end of emails.
**If this is true, then this is the only toon on the site where we see the actual printer, not just the paper.
* You can find the SWF file for processing if you explore disc 2 of "sbemail.exe- The First Hundred Strong Bad E-mails" in your computer's DVD drive (if you have one).

'''WARRIOR:''' Corn is no place for a mighty warrior!

'''THE UGLY ONE:''' So... who wants to come to my sweet someteen birthday bash tonight?

'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Is it going to be Nick-at-Night themed again?

'''SO AND SO:''' ''{slaps her forehead}'' I don't think I can stomach another show not on the WB.

'''CHEERLEADER:''' No! We can't come. We have... the... Olympics... tonight!

'''THE UGLY ONE:''' Oh, cuz it's a boy/girl party...

''{Close-up of So And So and Cheerleader, who look rather insane.}''

'''CHEERLEADER, SO AND SO:''' a B'GRL PRTY??!?

'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Taking the vowels out of words doesn't always make them cool.

'''SO AND SO:''' 'm srry.

'''CHEERLEADER:''' ''{holds up a cell phone, from which "the olympics are sooooo dumb!" is coming}'' So, coach just called and said the Olympics are dumb. We'll be there like shareware!

''{Cut (the music stops). A small man in a red hoodie labeled "coach" is standing next to a rather angry-looking burly man labeled "olympic man." Behind him is a banner that says "OLYMPIC RACE," and a cell phone identical to Cheerleader's is on the ground beside the coach.}''

'''COACH:''' I don't know what they're talking about, I swear!

''{Cut again to the Teen Girl Squad (music starts again).}

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Whoa! That was about the coolest thing ever! Me gotta see that again.

''{The cartoon rewinds and replays the 360-spin. The "SO GOOOD!" speech bubble has disappeared and doesn't return. At the end, however, What's Her Face is still spinning.}'' Uh-oh. We got a spinner.

'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Wheeeee! ''{the word slides to the right across the text bubble}''

''{A title slide entitled "AT THE PARTY" (imprinted on a cigarette, which a man is smoking) appears. Cut to the boy/girl party. Various characters from previous TGS episodes are attending. We pan right to reveal the TGS sans The Ugly One. What's Her Face is still spinning.}''

'''CHEERLEADER:''' Alright, wallflowers, watch a professional at work... I'm fit to get makey outy all over those uppaclassmen.

'''STRONG BAD:''' CABER TOSSED!! ''{cut to a spinning What's Her Face}''

'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' I really want... some of these chips.

''{Dead Cheerleader falls at the feet of What's Her Face.}''

''{Cut to the bowl of chips. The warrior jumps out of the chips.}''

'''WARRIOR:''' Corn chips are no place for a mighty warrior!

''{The samurai's naginata digs into What's-Her-Face as she rotates, and the upper half of What's-Her-Face's body falls off.}''

'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' ''{grinding sound}'' LATHE'D!

'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Oww! I hope they have those corn chips in heaven!

''{Cut to So And So and Tompkins, playing a Game Boy.}''

'''SO AND SO:''' Say, Tompkins, Brett Bretterson and I are Splitsville, so I'm lookin for a little rebound action!

'''TOMPKINS:''' Hecks no! I got Bowser on the ropes!

''{A Koopa shell comes out of the Game Boy and strikes So And So in the face.}''

'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' ''{the word "pØwned!!" appears}'' Puh-owned! Or however you say that...

''{Cut to The Ugly One's Father, standing at a microphone, speaking to the party crowd.}''

'''MANOLIOS UGLY ONE:''' OK, party people, get ready to give it up for my little girl on her sweet someteenth birthday... and remember, if you're looking for low prices on used and broken electronics, don't forget... Manolios Ugly One's Lectro-Pawn!

'''TOMPKINS:''' ''{offscreen}'' p4wned! ''{said "peh-awned"}''

'''MANOLIOS UGLY ONE:''' And here she is... THE UGLY ONE!

''{Cut to The Ugly One, wearing a red dress and ''much'' more attractive than before. The music is ended with the scratching of a record.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! Did ''I'' draw that new hotness?

'''THE UGLY ONE:''' Thanks for coming to my party everyone! Now let's get it on like Diddy Kong!

''{All people at the party, including The Ugly One, begin dancing.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ARROWED II! ELECTRIC—

''{Arrow'd Guy appears on the screen, wearing a tuxedo and holding a diamond ring in a box. He has two spikes on his back, a bad case of razor burn, and what appears to be a mound of corn in his breast pocket.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Wait a minute! Not this time, mister!

''{Strong Bad places a new piece of paper on the screen, containing The Ugly One and a muscular Strong Bad in a construction helmet. In the background are the [[Wikipedia:Great Sphinx of Giza|Great Sphinx of Giza]] and two pyramids.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, why, hello, The Ugly One, you're looking so makey outy tonight.

'''THE UGLY ONE:''' Why thank you Sir Hotbod Handsomeface. So are you!

''{Strong Bad and The Ugly One start making out. Cut to Strong Bad at his desk, making out with the paper of The Ugly One. Zoom out to a broader view of the desk, revealing Strong Mad, Strong Sad, and The Cheat standing next to him, looking bewildered.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh...mmm, not bad...oh, twice...

'''STRONG MAD:''' Oh?

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh...

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{cheat noises}''

''{Strong Bad notices them, and quickly hides the paper.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh! Uh, this is a piece of uh... pi- pizzaa-aaa...

''{Strong Bad shoves most of the paper into his mouth.}''

''{Cut to a crumpled & salivated paper, with the "IT'S OVER" screen appearing on the paper. A faint outline of the making-out scene is visible.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{slightly muffled}'' IT'S OVER!

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{off-screen}'' Uh, Strong Bad, were you just first-basin' it with that piece of loose-leaf?!

==Easter Eggs==
* At the end, click on the "O" to play a scene with Manolios Ugly One.
:'''MANOLIOS UGLY ONE:''' So okay, guys. Come down and be shopping at Manolios Ugly One's Lectro-pawn! ''{"come down and see us" flashes on the screen.}'' I have a price on broken VCR, smashed tape, or something like that. I'll be over here yelling, Manolios Lectro-pawn!

So and So is squished by a giant golf ball. The Ugly One is eaten by a carnivorous plant. What's Her Face's upper body has been replaced by a lamp and lampshade.}''

==Fun Facts==
{{checkstuffpage}}
===Explanations===
*"24 great-smelling colors" refers to scented markers like the [http://www.sanford.com/sanford/consumer/jhtml/new-product/productdetail.jhtml?attributeId=SNATT20025&nrProductId=SN20072 Mr. Sketch] series.
*"pØwned" is a variation of Internet slang meaning "owned". "[[Wikipedia:Pwn|Pwned]]" has numerous pronunciations, with popular ones including "owned" or "poned". Along the same lines, "P4wned" would also be [[Wikipedia:Leet|leetspeak]] for "pawned" as in pawn shop.
*The [[Wikipedia: Caber toss|Caber toss]] is a traditional Scottish sport, usually involving a log of specific weight. However, the remark "BAGH! Only 23 metres!" does not apply to the sport, for distance does not matter, but how straight the throw is when it lands on the ground or the number of rotations in the air.
*A [[Wikipedia:lathe|lathe]] is a tool used to create objects with [[wikipedia:rotational symmetry#Rotational symmetry with respect to any angle|cylindrical symmetry]] such as table legs. It works by rotating the subject while a cutting or smoothing tool is applied, evenly removing material around its circumference.
*[[Wikipedia:Clip show|Clip shows]], weddings, new babies, and characters getting killed off are staples of anniversary episodes and are generally considered signs of a TV show [[Wikipedia:Jumping the shark|jumping the shark]]. Such episodes also reprise characters and themes from the show as a whole (this issue features a great number of minor characters from previous issues). In the '60s, some shows, such as ''[[IMDb:tt0055662|The Beverly Hillbillies]]'', were thought to have jumped the shark when they made the switch from black and white to color.
*The "Sweet Someteen" birthday is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Sweet sixteen (birthday)|sweet sixteen]].
*[[Wikipedia:Shareware|Shareware]] is generally software that an individual creates and grants distribution rights to for free (accompanied by a request for payment), with the intention that recipients will like it and share it with other people, increasing its visibility and potential profitability.
*The 3 "X's" on the beer barrel surrounded by the Scots are marks that once signified the thoroughness of distillation of [[Wikipedia:moonshine|moonshine]], but now have come to be synonymous with any type of alcohol.

===Remarks===

*This cartoon uses a faster [[Wikipedia:Frame rate|frame rate]] than any of the other ones before due to the 3-D sequence; this makes Strong Bad's makeout sequence seem a bit more smooth than the normal animation.
*If The Ugly One's dad's name is Manolios Ugly One, then her first name is, in fact, The.
*This toon has more characters in it than any other toon to date.
*The music at the party is a dance mix version of the TGS main theme song.
*Even though it says in "24 great smelling colors", there are 43 colors.
*Strong Bad drew the "It's Over!" page on the back of the making-out page (you can see it reversed through the page, which is crumpled).
*This is the first time we've actually seen Strong Bad kiss something.
*When Strong Bad places the paper of himself greeting The Ugly One over the ARROW'D II page, you can faintly see the ARROW'D page beneath it.
*This toon, the 10th issue special, was released on October 10, or 10/10.

===Goofs===
*So And So's teeth are "flesh colored" in her introductory shot.
*"Vicious" is misspelled as "viscious" in So and So's description.
*When Manolios says "give it up," his speech bubble says "give up."
*Near the end, in the "real life" scene, we see the "ARROWED II" paper on the desk. However, it is missing the "II."
*In the Easter Egg, when Manolios Ugly One is waving his arms around, a gap opens and closes repeatedly in his beard.

[[Image:Babydaddy.PNG|100px|thumb|Oops.]]
===Glitches===
*In the rotational scenes, Cheerleader's ''baby daddy'' floats off of her dress. This is probably because of a shortcut taken which involves decorations such as eyes rotating around spherical objects, such as heads. Masks are then added to cause the eyes to disappear when they leave the head area. Apparently they forgot to add this mask to Cheerleader's dress.

===Inside References===
* "ARROWED II!" is a reference to "ARROWED!" on [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 1]].
* "[[Minor_Teen_Girl_Squad_Characters#Brett_Bretterson|Brett Bretterson]]" is So and So's imaginary boyfriend in [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 4]].
* The three scotsmen saying, "ACHGH! ACHGH! ACHGH!" is a reference to [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 1]], where three of the girls say "word" and "a'ight" in the same fashion, and a similar occurence in [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 5|Issue 5]], with George Washington, Abe Lincoln, and Henry Rollins all saying "woot" in sequence.

===Real-World References===
*[[Wikipedia:Nick at Nite|Nick at Nite]] is a programming block of [[Wikipedia:Nickelodeon (TV Channel)|Nickelodeon]] that runs "classic" TV like ''[[Wikipedia:Cheers|Cheers]]'' and ''[[Wikipedia:The Cosby Show|The Cosby Show]]'', while [[Wikipedia:WB Television Network|The WB]] is a network historically aimed at teens, with shows such as ''[[Wikipedia:Dawson's Creek|Dawson's Creek]]'' and ''[[Wikipedia:Gilmore Girls|Gilmore Girls]]''.
*[[Wikipedia:Bowser|Bowser]], [[Wikipedia:Koopa|Koopas]] and [[Wikipedia:Diddy Kong|Diddy Kong]] are [[Wikipedia:Nintendo|Nintendo]] characters.
*Tompkins is playing the original 1989 [[Wikipedia:Game Boy|Game Boy]] model. However, Bowser never appeared in an original Game Boy game.
*The grinding noise Strong Bad uses when the warrior "lathe"s Whats Her Face is strikingly similar to the noise made by electric can openers, which spin the can slowly in a similar fashion.
*"ARROWED II! Electric..." is a reference to the movie [[Wikipedia:Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo|''Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo'']]. It has become frequently referenced as an example of facetious follow-ups to popular films.
*The "spinner" gag refers to glitches in physics simulation used in CGI animation, such as when certain objects fail to stop moving. Examples can be seen in the special features of the computer-animated film ''[[IMDb:tt0198781|Monsters, Inc.]]''

==Transcript==

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Strong Bad Email! Makes money! Strong Bad Email! Gets paid! ''{loads the email}''

<blockquote class="lappy email">
<div>subject: Just wondering...</div>
Dear Strongbad, 
What would you do different, if you could do it all over 
again? 
 
Crapfully yours, 
Richie Z 
Can-A-Duh
</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad says "Totally not gettin' old" in place of "Crapfully yours," and says each syllable of "Can-A-Duh" separately with a pause between each}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Wait, you're not related to Coach Z, are you, Richie? Or Coach Zed as you Canucks ''{pronounced Ca-nooks}'' call him. Whoa. Coach Zed. That's way cooler. I'm gonna start calling him that too and maybe he won't suck so bad! Thanks, Richie! Your pal, SB ''{says as "Sed Bed"}'' ''{clears screen}'' Alright, what would I do different? Well, while I've never actually made a mistake, there have been a few, let's call 'em "stnanks," that could be worthy of a do-over. It's no secret that one of my biggest stnanks was involving Ali and Ali's sister. If I had to do that over again, there's no way I'd mess it up. Here's just what I'd do:

''{The screen blurs as we cut to the broken Tandy 400, and the first email from [[sisters]] is onscreen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh! There's two of them! ''{places a candle next to the computer, clears the screen, and starts typing to romantic music}'' Well, Ali. There's ONE of me, and I'd like to cordially invite myself over to your place tonight for dinner and afterdinner mints. After afterdinner mints, you and your sister, Ali Jr. I'll call her, can fight to the death over me. Wait. ''{music stops}'' No. Hold on. No, no dying. ''{He only types one "no."}'' Um, ''{music restarts}'' we should have an egg drop soup eating contest. ''{the music comes to a scratching halt and he stammers}'' Hang on. I can't remember what happens next. ''{stops typing}'' The Cheat!

''{Homestar Runner shuffles up on his knees. He's covered in yellow body paint and dressed in a yellow shirt. Attached to his head is a black tuft of hair, and he has black dots on the back of his head and all along his back to look like The Cheat.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Woo woo wee woo woo!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, ''this'' is hilarious. Homestar, where's The Cheat?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Squeakicoo! I'm The Cheat!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, really. Then what—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{stands up}'' Surprise! Strong Bad, it's me! Homestar Runner! ''From school!''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ugh! I need The Cheat!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, okay. ''{gets down on his knees again}'' Meh.

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's not what I meant. Uh, I guess you'll have to do. Ahem. All right, The Cheat. I need you to help me with my award-winning rewrite of the Ali and Ali's sister email. There's two of them!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Skooko wibbo wee! You should serenade them! I can play the drum!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, that sounds about right. Let's go practice!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{jumping up}'' I can play the drum!

''{Cut to The Field. Strong Bad sings into a microphone while Homestar bangs on a [[Wikipedia:floor tom|floor tom]].}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Don't you know I have a ''{feedback noise}'' BIG OL' RED HEAD! And a fat little body! And I never change my cloooothes! ''{high pitched, resulting in another feedback noise}'' No, I never change my cloooothes!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Uh, Strong Bad? I think I'm falling for you. ''{little hearts bubble and pop over Homestar's head}''

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' No, no, no, no, no. That is not right at all. Making Homestar dressed as The Cheat fall in love with me is ''not'' what I had in mind! Whatever. Who cares? I didn't want to go to Sally's house anydangway! ''{clears screen}'' Anyways, what else? I always felt a little bad about kicking The Cheat in email 23. Let's try that one again!

''{Cut to the non-broken Tandy 400, with the email from [[little animal]] on it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...crapfully yours, Ashley and Anthony. ''{clears screen, types}'' Well, Ash and Ant, or Ley and Thony, or Shle and Ntho, or whatever you like to be called, if a little animal came up to me, I'd give him a pat on the head, a tuna-flavored treat, and some sage advice.

''{Cut back to reveal Homestar—still in his The Cheat disguise—standing next to Strong Bad.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Meh, Strong Bad. Meh.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, ''no way!'' This does not count! You are ''not'' gettin' any fish cookies outta me! But I ''will'' give you that sage advice and a ''{clears throat}'' "pat" on the head. ''{starts hitting Homestar with his keyboard}'' DON'T! EVER! DRESS! UP! As The CHEAT! AGAIN! PARSLEY! SAGE! RoseMARY! And THYME!

''{Strong Mad walks up and glares menacingly at Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' DON'T HURT THE CHEAT!!!

'''STRONG BAD:''' No, big guy, that's not The Cheat. That's Homestar! From school!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Meedley mee! I'm The Cheat! ''{Strong Mad smiles for a moment.}'' I'm not from school! Moooooo!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{narrowing his eyes}'' Uh, The Cheat's not a cow, you know...''{Strong Mad picks Strong Bad up by the leg.}'' Whoa! ''{Strong Mad starts shaking Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' THE CHEAT IS SO A COW!!! ''{As he shakes Strong Bad, coins fall out and Homestar pecks them off the ground like a chicken.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Strong Mad! Put me down! You're making a terrible stnank!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' It makes me all jangly inside! ''{shakes around as the coins rattle inside him}''

''{cut back to the Lappy}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Alright, it's become abundantly clear that THIS is the email I should be redoing. Lappy, if you please. ''{The text disappears as the computer displays "Do Over!!!" with an accompanying explosion effect.}'' DO OVER!!! ''{the original email comes back up, and Strong Bad types:}'' What would I do differently, Richie? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Well, except I might go back and taste out one of them Cheatcakes. ''{the scene cuts back to show the desk}'' Those things looked a-pretty good!

''{Homestar leans in, still in disguise and carrying a bag that says "MOLDY BREAD, GUYS"}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Meeeeeeh?

'''STRONG BAD:''' No! Wait! Nothing! Never! I regret nothing!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sadly leaving the screen}'' Meeeeeeh...

'''STRONG BAD:''' Phew!

''{[[The Paper]] comes down. A few seconds later, Strong Bad taps the back of his head a few times, shaking out more coins, which land on the desk.}''

*Click on the [[Floppy Disk Container]] at the end of the email to see The Cheat (disguised as Homestar Runner with kiss marks) and Marzipan together.
'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar, can you pass the soy crisps?

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{cheat noises like "Yes, Ma'am!"}''

''{The Cheat hands Marzipan a bag labeled "Crisps, A-Soy!"}''

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*'''Zed''' is the pronunciation of the letter "Z" in most of the [[Wikipedia:Commonwealth English|English]]-speaking world except the United States (where it is pronounced '''zee''').
*"[[Wikipedia:Canuck|Canuck]]" is a nickname for a person from Canada.


===Goofs===
*The Tandy's contrast buttons are still damaged when "little animal" is first being done-over, even though the Tandy is supposed to be undamaged. When the camera zooms away, the problem fixes itself.
*When Strong Bad redoes the Tandy-era emails, the star logo is further left than in the original and "contrast" is written in a different font.
*If you click the [[Floppy Disk Container]] before Strong Bad throws the change all over his desk, then the change will already be there when you cut back.

===Inside References===

*"Meedley mee" is a reference to the hot lixx played by Strong Bad in [[guitar]].
*Strong Bad wanting to taste a [[The Cheatcakes|Cheatcake]] is a reference to [[stupid stuff]], in which The Cheat offers him a platter of said dessert only to have it be rejected by Strong Bad.
*Homestar and Strong Bad saying "from school" might be referring to the [[Yearbook Character Page]] or Crazy Go Nuts University.
**Homestar says that he's not from school, yet The Cheat does appear in the yearbook.
*Strong Bad saying "Those things looked a-pretty good!" is a reference to [[monument]], where he says almost the same thing about Technochocolate.

*This is another reference to [[Kicking The Cheat]].



===Real-World References===

*[[Crisps, A-Soy!]] is a reference to [http://www.nabiscoworld.com/cookieguys/ Chips Ahoy!] brand cookies and to the many soy products whose names contain puns on the word "soy" (such as "Soy Good" soy milk).

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

'''MIKE:''' All right, so we're doing the commentary for email 130 right now, but guess what, Matt?

'''MATT:''' What, what's that, Mike?

'''MIKE:''' We haven't even ''made'' that email yet!

'''MATT:''' Uh oh, how're we gonna do the commentary?

'''MIKE:''' I don't know let's just start talking and, uh, we'll see it works for commentary.

'''MATT:''' Strong Bad's making fun of somebody's name—

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' —or reading the email probably right now. Oh, let's see, oh he's got a dumb name and he misspelled something!

'''MIKE:''' It might be called "do over" or "junk commentary".

'''MATT:''' Really.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Wow, those both sound pretty intrigue-ling.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, maybe we'll see.

'''MATT:''' How long, how do we know how long to go on for?

'''MIKE:''' We'll just go for a few minutes here and see, uh... Oh look, aah, ''{laughs}'' look what, what happened there! ''{Nothing actually happened.}''

'''MATT:''' That was pretty good!

'''MIKE:''' That was, uh, that was my idea, definitely it was the funniest part of the email and uh, I thought to do it, out of my own head.

'''MATT:''' Oh really, and what happened, Mike, in this part of the email that hasn't been—

'''MIKE:''' Well, I haven't written it yet, Matt!

'''MATT:''' Um,—

'''MIKE:''' But I know it was good!

'''MATT:''' —this one is definitely going to be an awesome email.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, it's gonna... we're saving up.

'''MATT:''' All our... our tickets.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Yes. Um, so this, uh — Strong Sad, uh, doesn't appear in this email.

'''MATT:''' Oh, making some executive decisions are we?

'''MIKE:''' Well, his voice might be in it.

'''MATT:''' Okay, his vo—''{laughing}'' all right, well. We're gonna successfully write this email just by talking about it.

'''MIKE:''' That's a good idea.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Uh, so let's pretend it's called "do over".

'''MATT:''' Okay.

'''MIKE:''' He's doing, he's redoing an email that he's already done.

'''MATT:''' One, or multiple ones?

'''MIKE:''' Let's say he just does parts of multiple ones.

'''MATT:''' Okay. Uh oh, here comes Homestar! ''{Homestar actually is there.}''

'''MIKE:''' Aah wait wait, here it is!

''{both laugh exaggeratedly}''

'''MATT:''' That's the fireman.

'''MIKE:''' Oh man, that gets my goose every time.

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Eww. Um, so which, so which ones is he going to do over, like old-old emails—

'''MIKE:''' Some old-old ones.

'''MATT:''' —like "tape leg"?

'''MIKE:''' Like... Why would he touch that one?

'''MATT:''' I mean that era. Of course, "tape leg" is off-limits.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Some in that era, maybe some—

'''MATT:''' Summon that era?

'''MIKE:''' Summon. I, I call upon thee to summon that era. No I think, uh, "invisibility", maybe, has some potential.

'''MATT:''' But that one's great!

'''MIKE:''' Oh I know, but it's just got a, you know, it's just maybe got a—

'''MATT:''' Go another direction?

'''MIKE:''' —maybe got one other thing. Maybe he wanted to do something else.

'''MATT:''' I hope that floating box of Swiss Cake Rolls comes back, 'cause I love those. That's my favorite part.

'''MIKE:''' Maybe, maybe the "invisibility" one, the "do over" one, he should just, uh, in the "invisibility" email just wanna hang out with the, uh, floating box, ''{laughing}'' floating box of Swiss Cake Rolls.

'''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' Act like it's not being carried by, uh---

'''MIKE:''' Right, by him.

'''MATT:''' —an invisible version of him?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' That'd be good.

'''MIKE:''' And he and the, uh, ''{laughing}'' floating box of Swiss Cake Rolls, just gonna wreak havoc.

'''MATT:''' It'd be kinda like the, uh, Wagon Fulla Pancakes.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. It'd be better than that. Funnier than that. That's ''{unintelligible}''.

'''MATT:''' You didn't think it was very funny, huh?

'''MIKE:''' ''{makes a long noise indicating "not really"}''

'''MATT:''' It was your idea if I remember correctly—

'''MIKE:''' —It was a good one!—

'''MATT:''' —to do the wagon full of pancakes.

'''MIKE:''' It's the second-funniest email ever written next to email 130.

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' How long we've been goin' here, 'bout three minutes?

'''MATT:''' Ah, we got a ways.

'''MIKE:''' We got a little while, ''{stammers}'' use your own format.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Let's go for another minute yet, definitely.

'''MATT:''' Um, so I remember when we were a kid, this part. It was from when we were kids. ''{This part has nothing to do with when he was a kid.}''

'''MIKE:''' ''{holding in laughter}'' Yeah, that, that elementary school teacher we had.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, and there was this, this kid at school, too, who would do that thing, and we probably made a movie about it. Uh, me and Neil.

'''MIKE:''' And then ''{someone}'' died. I kicked him in the head.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, so we were going to put something sort of like that in a cartoon.

'''MIKE:''' Oh, and that was in our basement.

'''MATT:''' ''{laughing to himself}''

'''MIKE:''' We used to do that... Sister Julie was not pleased when that happened.

'''MATT:''' That's right.

'''MIKE:''' Um...

'''MATT:''' What else you got, Mike?

'''MIKE:''' We got about twenty seconds here, Matt. What are your parting words? This is the last commentary on the DVD. This is the last chance you've got — Make it ''matter''. That's my new motto: "Make it matter." What's yours?

'''MATT:''' Uh, my new motto is... "Matters matter," or something.

'''MIKE:''' Good one. I'll give you one more chance.

'''MATT:''' Wah wah wahhh! ''{the "you lose" noise}''

'''MIKE:''' That's a good one.

'''MATT:''' That's my motto.

'''MIKE:''' "Wah wah wah"?

'''MATT:''' Bump bump ba bummm!

'''MIKE:''' Make it matter. ''{laughs}''

''{The commentary is a little shorter than the email, so the toon's audio takes over.}''

Coach Z

==Biography==
Coach Z is the "coach" of Homestar Runner and the gang. He has a strong [[Wikipedia:Upper Midwest|Upper Midwestern]] [[Wikipedia:American_english#North_Central_American_English|accent]] which sometimes gets him into trouble. He almost never says a negative comment to anyone. He often offers more encouragement than is needed; he says "You can't just rush into the score zone" so often that it has lost its meaning. He is a fan of hip-hop and rap music, particularly the [[Wikipedia:Wu-Tang Clan|Wu-Tang Clan]]. Coach Z has already released one single, "[[These peoples try to fade me]]," which was on [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]]. His solo album is entitled "The Z Is All Up Ins", featuring the smash hit [[Hip Hop Dance|"Hip-Hop Dance"]]. It has been implied that he has a crush on Marzipan, and has on several occasions left inappropriate messages on [[Marzipan's Answering Machine|her answering machine]], including one occasion where he was drunk. He seems to frequently make jokes and references about pants, as seen in [[super powers]], [[lunch special]], [[secret recipes]] and [[A Folky Tale]]. It's questionable whether he is wearing a green body suit or simply has green skin.

== Character Video Transcript ==
''{'''Page Title''': Drop Down and Gimme 20!!}'' ''{'''Places:''' [[Coach Z's Locker Room]]}''

'''COACH Z:''' ''{not quite looking at the camera lens, more looking at the person who is holding the camera}'' Is that thing on? ''{turns to the camera lens}'' Hey there, ho there! I'm the Coach! The Coach Z, I'd guess you'd call me. Or plain old Coach is fine, seein' as I'm the only one around, so, probably no one else would answer to that. You say "Hey Coach!", and I'd say "Yeah?" or..."That's me!" or..."Hoo-hah!" ''{waves his arms in the air}'' Any one of those. There's rumors flyin' around that I sleep in one of these lockers ''{gestures to the lockers behind him}'', but uh, that's just not true. I usually crash on this bench here. ''{gestures to the bench behind him}'' My back's not in real good condition. ''{Rubs Back}'' And now, I'd like to perform my hip-hop single, "These peoples try to fade me." ''{holds up a microphone, begins to sing}'' A one-two, a one-two—!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{interrupting Coach Z}'' Sorry. We're all out of tape.

== Fun Facts ==
*Coach Z's accent came from a depressing Midwestern voice that [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] and some friends would do in college.

*It was revealed in issue #21 of Wonkavision magazine that Coach Z is named for [[Craig Zobel]].
