Transcript

{Open to Homestar walking in The Field.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: One, two, one, two, one, two, one, two... {continues in background}

{Cut to Strong Mad lifting the cover off The King of Town's grill to reveal The Cheat.}

THE CHEAT: {angry The Cheat noises}

{Strong Mad replaces the cover; his reflection is clearly visible}

STRONG MAD: Gah!

{This set of sounds continues in the background; cut to The Poopsmith patting a pile of whatsit. As he does, noises are generated.}

{Noise continues in background again; cut back to Strong Mad.}

STRONG MAD: Gah!

{All three noises are still playing in background; cut to Bubs using a meat grinder to grind various things into sausages}

BUBS: Ooh! Ah! Rink-a-dink-a-dink-a-dink-a-dink-a-dink-a-dink-a-dink-a...

{Cut back to The Poopsmith. He continues to make noises with the whatsit}

{Cut to a 4-way screen split of the four scenes currently going on, sound effects continue. Then cut to Strong Sad and Coach Z in the gymnasium.}

STRONG SAD: Here I go! {pats his belly to make noise; scoreboard buzzes}

COACH Z: Atta boy!

{This continues in the background; cut to The King of Town eating marshmallows.}

THE KING OF TOWN: {eating noises}

{Eating noises continue in the background; cut back to Homestar Runner walking.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: One, two...

{Cut to Coach Z and Strong Sad.}

COACH Z: Atta boy!

{Cut to Pom Pom at Club Technochocolate; he is throwing 100 dollar bills into the air, making bouncing noises.}

{Sound effects continue in the background; cut to Strong Bad in the shower, singing.}

STRONG BAD: {singing} I'm a woman on the prowl and I stick up for myself! The city is at night and I'm dancin! Dancin! Homsar solo!

{All sound effects temporarily cease; cut to Homsar in a nearly black space.}

HOMSAR: {vaguely similarly to the song Strong Bad was singing} AaAaAaA! OurAaAaA! UrAaAaAaA, Uwarwarwarwar! A-way-way-way-waa!

{All sound effects resume; cut to Marzipan playing her guitar.}

MARZIPAN: {guitar riff}

{Sound effects continue; cut to Strong Bad.}

STRONG BAD: Look out world! I'm an independent girl! Rollin' around like a motorcade! Look out world! I'm an independent girl! {sound effects stop} {out of key} You can meet me down at the arcade! {no longer singing} Whoa. Need to get the acoustics checked out in here. {taps the brush he is holding, making a sound like tapping a microphone} Is this thing broken?

{fade out}

Fun Facts

Explanations

• A motorcade is a procession of cars leading a VIP, usually a political figure, down a main road.

Trivia

• When this toon was first released, the MixMastah would automatically appear, rather than having to click.
• The items Bubs grinds into sausages include a steak, a tennis ball, and a Chinese food carton.

Remarks

• Homestar doesn't say "one, two" in time with his walking in some parts.
• The shower Strong Bad is in looks exactly like the one on Main Page 14.
• Until around 19:00, 29 May 2007 (UTC), the toon was only linked on the main page, not in the toons menu.

Goofs

• At one point, during a cut to Strong Sad and Coach Z, the score on the scoreboard changes from 12 to 2 for a single frame before changing to 13.
  • When it is 13, it just barely sticks out of the box.
• Strong Sad pats his belly 20 times, but the scoreboard displays a score of 18 at the end.
• At one part when The King of Town is eating his marshmallows one appears outside his mustache when he eats it.

Fixed Goofs

• When released, this toon had an "Again?" button, but clicking it would cause all the sounds from the MixMastah to continue playing with the replayed toon. This was fixed with the removal of the "Again?" button.
• When this toon was first released the cap Strong Bad had on the mixmasta was different than the one he was wearing in the actual toon this was fixed later that day

Inside References

Keep on Trucking!

• Homestar Runner's animation is based on a Weekly Sketchbook image, and was previously shown at the Georgia Tech talk. A graffiti image of Coach Z seen behind Strong Sad was also from a Sketchbook image.
• The starry background in the Homsar solo was previously seen in an Easter egg in ghosts.

Real-World References

• The way Homestar walks references the iconic "Truckin'" images by R. Crumb.
• The 'Fightin' Coach Z's' logo resembles Notre Dame's 'Fighting Irish' logo.
• Pom Pom's money throwing is a reference to the "Makin' It Rain" technique employed by rappers.
