Transcript
{Coach Z and Bubs are sitting next to each other in chairs at dusk, waiting for some fireworks to start.}
COACH Z: Naw, I tell ya's, I once shoved an M-80 up my nose just to impress the ladytypes.
BUBS: Aw, that's nothin'. I once ate an entire bowl of M-200's at my family reunion!
COACH Z: Oh, yeah, well I married an M-300-
BUBS: ...They don't make a 300!
COACH Z: Oh... 250?
BUBS: No.
COACH Z: Elephant?
BUBS: UP BUP BUP BUP!
{Homestar comes in with a cardboard Marzipan.}
HOMESTAR: Hey guys! Happy Fireworks!
HOMESTAR: {As cardboard Marzipan} Homestar, that's not what the holiday's called.
BUBS: Marzipan's still out of town for the summer, eh Homestar?
HOMESTAR: No, what're you talking about?
HOMESTAR: {As cardboard Marzipan} Yes, I'm still out of town, Bubs, you gorgeous hunk of man.
BUBS: {Blushing} Oh, why thank you, Cardboard Marzipan.
COACH Z: Hey, Cardboard Marzi! Uh, you want in on some of this action?
HOMESTAR: {As Cardboard Marzipan} No, you're disgusting.
BUBS: What's takin' these fireworks guys so long anyways? I got peoples to rip off!
{screen now shows Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and the Cheat. Cans of gas and WB-46 are around them as well as a sign that says, "The fireworks guys (f'real)"}
STRONG BAD: Ugh, I don't know what I was thinking when I agreed to let you make your homemade fireworks, Strong Mad.
{shows batteries and matches taped together}
STRONG MAD: OOH-AHH! OOH-AHH!
STRONG BAD: We'll get to the oohing and ahhing soon enough. But first, we gotta go straight to plan G!
{shows The Cheat with "plan g" painted on him}
THE CHEAT: {sadly} Meh.
(Strong Mad grabs The Cheat and starts shaking him. The Cheat is making noises)
STRONG BAD: Wait for it... wait for it...
{The Cheat's noises get higher-pitched}
STRONG BAD: And pull!
{Strong Mad throws the Cheat above him}
THE CHEAT: Meeeeeeeeeehhhhh!
{The Cheat is flying in the sky. Eventually, Cheat-shaped fireworks appear. Cut back to Homestar, Bubs, and Coach Z}
HOMESTAR, BUBS, AND COACH Z: Oooooh. Ahhhhhh.
COACH Z: It's dazzle-mazing!
HOMESTAR: {As cardboard Marzipan} I think fireworks promote violence.
HOMESTAR: Shut up, Marzipan.
{a firework explodes and shows "Happy Fireworks!" The Cheat crashes into the ground. Cardboard Marzipan shows up}
HOMESTAR: {as cardboard Marzipan} Oh, the Cheat, are you okay? Do you want to go on a secret hot date?
Fun Facts
- The Loading Screen of this toon displays "Loafing..." instead of "Loading...".
- The cardboard used to make Cardboard Marzipan had the letters (F)RAGILE stenciled across its top before Homestar drew Marzipan on it, as well as DON'T BEND stenciled across the bottom.
- The cans of WB-46 have this slogan written on them: Stops the Squeaks! Gets some jobs DONE. Fuh-lamable.
Inside References
- This is another instance of The Cheat's Head Exploding.
- Homestar's drawing of Marzipan looks similar to the Cheat's drawing of her in mile.
Also Cardboard Marzipan's offer to go on a secret hot date sounds like its from one of the cheats movies.
- Bubs drinks a "Not so Cold One" and Coach Z drinks a Coldson Lite.
Real-World References
- The cans of WB-46 are an obvious spoof of WD-40.
- Some of the batteries Strong Mad used to make fireworks are black with copper tops, the classic design of Duracell.
