subject: cliffhangersDear Strong Bad,
Resolve all the cliffhangers please.
Thanks,
Jake
STRONG BAD: {typing} Hmmmmm. The clifhangers, eh? I never really thought to cal them that, but I guess it is what they are. Yeah. Why not? {gets up, accompanied by the geddup noise}
{Cut to a frontside of a cliff. Homsar and the KOT are both attatched to seperate ropes, which are attatched to the side of the cliff.}
HOMSAR: This dinner party is top dollar!
{Strong Bad is seen walking up to the edge of the cliff. Zoom in on him.}
STRONG BAD: Alright, cliffhangers. Prepare to be resolved!
{Strong Bad takes out a knife and slices both the ropes, causing the King of Town and Homsar to fall to the bottom, which is not seen.}
STRONG BAD: Oh, and I brought you some snacks.
{Strong Bad tosses some paper bags labeled "Hom" and "Kot" down the cliff.}
KING OF TOWN: {Echoey} You're a good friend, Strong Bad!
{Strong Bad leaves. Cut back to Strong Bad's computer room. Strong Bad sits back down, and the screen has already been cleared.}
STRONG BAD: Alright, alright. I know what you really mean, Jakesy. So, you say you want a resolution, huh?
{Static away to the words "Cliffhanger #1" on a dark grey screen. Then, cut to the Locker Room. The Thnikkaman is crammed into a locker, bound with ropes. Coach Z is facing him.}
COACH Z: And now, Thnikkaman, at long last, the world will discover your secret, sorcret identity!
{Cut to a closeup of Coach Z's face.}
COACH Z: Therefore, rendering you useless as a Thnikkaman!
{Cut back to the original view of the locker room.}
THNIKKAMAN: I'll render you toothless!
COACH Z: Now, give me them cool shades!
{Coach Z swipes at the Thnikkaman's "cool shades". Just as he's about to take them off, freeze the frame. Coach Z's arm is blurred. Zoom in, and play the "dun, dun, duuun" sound effect.}
{The screen darkens and the word "resolution" appears onscreen. Then, unpause, undarken, and the word "resolution disappears. Coach Z, instead of swiping off the Thnikkaman's glasses, follows through the movement of his arm and falls flat on his face.}
THNIKKAMAN: Yeah. Shut up, Coach!
{The Thnikkaman jumps on top of Coach Z, and hobbles away.}
MAGICAL VOICES: You just missed unmasking the Thnikkaman!!!
{Slight pause.}
MAGICAL VOICES: Because you have really bad hand-eye coordination!!!
COACH Z: Enough already, I get it! My secret sorcret has been revearled...
{Cut to a grey screen with the words "Cliffhanger #2". Then, cut to the inside of the Proud Anselmo. Strong Bad is talking into a cardboard radio with a small drink umbrella for the antanae.}
