Button Effects
- Toons — The Ab-Abber 2000 from the Strong Bad Email suntan appears behind Homestar. "Contestant number 1, your name again is—" {he looks at the cue card and squints oddly} "'Toons?'"
- Games — A poster saying "A Trip to Hawaii!" appears. "Now, time for our lightning round. We call it... 'Games.'" A sign composed of flashing lights reading "GAMES" appears in the background and music is heard.
- Characters — A chair with a sign that says "$??" appears. "So, Characters, you were in a movie recently." {leans toward the 'camera'} "Tell us about that."
- Downloads — A golden statue of The Cheat appears. "My next guest is an extremely talented webpage. Please welcome.. 'Downloads!'" Pom Pom bounces past wearing a name tag that says "downloads" while music plays.
- Store — "But if you guess correctly, you'll win... a new store!" The background lifts, revealing the Gremlin while music plays.
- Email — The Blender appears, and a buzzer is heard. "No, I'm sorry. The correct answer... was 'email'." A "wrong" sound effect is heard in the background and "E-mail" is displayed in a white font.
Fun Facts
Remarks

- Homestar holds a microphone and sorts through a stack of index cards at the same time.
Inside References

- The Gremlin originally appeared in Homestarloween Party as a supercharged version of the real car, thought up by Bubs.
- The whole menu is the set of The Show, which originated in the email the show.
Real-World References

Fast Forward
